Know, by sad experience, what it is to be lulled to sleep with a false peace. Long was I lulled asleep long did I think myself a Christian, when I knew nothing of the Lord Jesus Christ.
George Whitefield
Image
I offer you salvation this day the door of mercy is not yet shut, there does yet remain a sacrifice for sin, for all that will accept of the Lord Jesus Christ. He will embrace you in the arms of His love.

Image
God has condescended to become an author, and yet people will not read his writings. There are very few that ever gave this Book of God, the grand charter of salvation, one fair reading through.
