The Rock of Our Salvation

When I was a youth in the bond of iniquity and in the gall of bitterness I fell into distress concerning my soul. I feared I should be lost forever. Being in the company of two Christian ladies one of them kindly expressed the wish that my impressions might not be transient. This I understood. The other expressed the hope that Christ might yet be to me all in all. To me whose heart was covered with a veil of unbelief her words were as the speech of a barbarian. Yet they made an impression. From them I learned that some persons knew a secret hidden from me and I longed to learn what it was. I hope I have gained some insight into it and I propose to present some of the views I have obtained. The great central truth of the religion of sinners relates to the person character work sufferings offices and glory of Jesus Christ. These are vital in Christianity. As one is sound or corrupt here-so is he substantially right or wrong in the main. Both now and in the last day the great question in determining character and destiny is the same: What do you think of Christ?
