The Saviour of the World
John 4:4
Take a few moments dear brothers and sisters here at Talk Jesus to look, behold and gaze upon Jesus........
Can you look at His dear wounds, and not be wounded with love for Him?
Are not His wounds as mouths which plead with you to yield Him all your hearts?
Can you gaze upon his face bedewed with bloody sweat, and then go away and be ensnared with the
world’s painted beauties?
Oh, for the vision of the Crucified!
When shall we see the face that was so marred for us?
When shall we behold the hands and feet which bear the nail-marks still, and look into the wounded side bejeweled with the spear-wound?
Oh, when shall we leave all our sins and griefs, for ever to behold Him shine and see Him still before us?
Oh, when shall we be:
Far from a world of grief and sin,
With God eternally shut in?
Our hope, our solace, our glory, our victory, are all found in the blood of the Lamb, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
from Spurgeon, Slaying the Sacrifice
Blessed be His glorious name for ever
Psalm 72:19
