It is possible to be saved from the power of sin and the guilt of sin. – The double cure!
But this man, (Jesus Christ) because he
continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto
God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. (Hebrews 7:24,
25).
Many years ago a young English lad went
to stay in a rural community in Scotland.
He was enjoying a swim in a small lake
when overcome with cramp some distance from the shore and shouted for help. In
the field near the lake a farm lad heard the cry for help; he plunged into the
water and brought him to safety.
Some years later the two met again. The
boy from the city asked the country boy what his plans for the future were, and
learned his wish was to study medicine. So the wealthy parents funded the farm
lad’s education.
The farm lad studied hard, graduated
and his career was in scientific research. Alexander Fleming worked with the
wonder drug of the time penicillin.
The boy pulled out of the lake also
rose to fame. The London youth went to the Near East to meet Roosevelt and
Stalin during the Second World War. He contracted pneumonia there and his condition was critical.
So the drug penicillin was flown out to
him, and his life was again saved.
For the second time Alexander Fleming
saved the life of Winston Churchill at that time the Prime Minister of England.
Famous or not we all can be saved
through a personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Indeed we can be saved twice, from the
power of sin and the guilt of sin.
It is a free gift and there for the taking, claim your gift, especially at this time of the year!
