THROUGH THE GATE

I came to lay my burdens down, a peace not known below
And then I met my Savior dear, the one I had come to know.
It was He who had said, “Well done” my servant child
In a tone that I had never yet heard, so meek and mild.
Awards Day had come and gone, a crown encircled my head
And then I stopped to remember, I’m alive though I once was dead.
It was hard for me to take it all in
Beginning with the one who had taken away my sin,
But, oh, so much more there was to see, my eyes darting around
And my ears were keener for I heard the most unusual sound.
Could it be that the voices who sang so sweet upon the earth
Were actually more beautifully tuned at the wonder of heaven’s mirth?
I was so glad that I had forever to explore the beauties of our new home;
2000 years ago someone sketched the view-gold, pearls, and jewels of all kind
There is now no wonder why I had to be renewed in body so fair,
I’d gladly sit at the lowest of seats and remain a beggar up there
Questions that I thought would be on my lips seemed to slip away
At least for awhile I was just so happy to sit in the soft Son’s ray.
God had said, “Heaven’s the best”, don’t miss it dear one,
Finally, He spoke again, “Welcome home my Son”!

STRIVING TO DO GOD'S THINGS GOD'S WAY
AND TO WORSHIP OUR GOD - - HIS WAY;
FORSAKING OUR OWN IDEAS,
WE SEEK HIS WILL IN ALL THINGS.


CHRIST IS THE ANSWER!

Paul wrote, “For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified” (1 Cor. 2:1-2). Paul’s ancient world was much like our modern one. His culture was animated by worldly thinking. It exalted intellectual pursuits, human philosophy, political power, and wealth (1 Cor. 1:18). The world thought then, as it does now, that all of man’s deepest needs could be answered by the proper application of these things.

But man’s innermost cravings, his soul-needs, cannot be satisfied by the pursuit of these things. They are void of power and cannot save the soul. Material riches and the vain philosophies of men cannot cure man’s sin sickness, nor redeem his enslaved spirit (1 Pet. 1:18-19; Col. 2:8). Sin, our experiment with self-rule and independence from our Creator, separates us from God and brings condemnation (1 John 3:4; Isa. 59:1-2). It defeats us, and mars everything that is good within us. So, Paul’s preaching did not rely on soaring oratory, nor on the vacuous ideas proposed by Greek philosopher’s on the famed heights of Mar’s Hill, but on God’s offering of His Son at Calvary. All of man’s self-centered striving for answers had only taken him further from his God, leaving him more lost than ever.

The coming of Christ into the world is God’s answer for everything man needs. He is the answer for the salvation of the soul by His redeeming blood. He is the answer for the home which is deteriorating at such a rapid pace. He is the answer for man’s selfishness and self-destructiveness. He is the answer for man’s materialism and hedonism.

Christ is the ONLY ANSWER FOR YOUR LIFE! Our Heavenly Father says from Heaven, “Hear ye Him” (Matthew 17:5). WILL YOU?
