To
whom shall we go?
"Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal
life" (John 6: 68)... And as it was with Peter and the rest of
the disciples, so it is with all sensible sinners and true believers who see
there is no other to go to for life and salvation but Christ; not to the law
of Moses, which accuses, curses, and condemns, and by which there is neither
life nor righteousness, which is impure and imperfect and cannot justify
before God nor answer for them in a time to come; nor to their tears of
repentance, which will not satisfy the law, atone for sins, nor wash them
away; nor to carnal descent, birth-privileges, a religious education, sobriety
and civility, to trust in which is to have confidence in the flesh, which will
be of no avail; nor to ceremonial services or moral duties or even evangelical
ordinances, none of which can take away sin. There is no other savior
bur Christ to look to, no other mediator between God and
men to make use of, no other physician of value for
diseased and sin-sick souls to apply unto, no other fountain
but His blood for polluted souls to wash in and be made clean, no other city
of refuge or stronghold for souls sensible of danger to flee unto
and be safe, no other to come as the bread of life where
hungry souls may be fed, no other place of rest for those
that are weary and heavy laden, nor is there any other were there is plenty of
all grace and security from every enemy as in Him; and therefore, to whom can
they have recourse, but unto Him?
