"NEITHER IS THERE SALVATION IN ANY OTHER." Our salvation is of the Lord. Our deliverance from sin, the curse, and the wrath of God was impossible by man; but God sent His own Son in our nature, to save us freely, fully and eternally. The gospel is the "good news of our salvation." It is sent to inform us that God is love; that grace reigns; that heaven is opened; that provision is made for our guilt, our frailty and our fears; that God waits to receive us, bless us, and glorify us with Himself for ever. It sets before us all that Christ has done, all that He possesses, and invites us to come and receive, to use, and be happy. It requires nothing of us to merit it, it offers all and gives all freely to the poor, the halt, the maimed, and the blind. It has all our misery requires, all our wants demand; we cannot wish for more: it is full of grace and glory. Precious gospel! Glorious news! May we receive it, act upon it daily, and rejoice! It is intended to fill us with joy and peace in believing, to lead us to hope abounding, and to make us more than conquerors through Him who loved us and gave Himself for us.

For Meditation:
For you the crimson fountain flowed,
Forgiveness from His bleeding side;
Wounded for you th'eternal God;
For you the Prince of glory died;
Believe, and all your sins forgiv'n;
Believe, and all is yours in heav'n.
