" It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." " Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters." These messages were proclaimed in a quiet village one glorious May day. An old man, a little old man, a queer little old man, was amongst those drawn from their cottages to listen. I offered him a small book. " I can't read much ; can't see— can hardly see you." " Can you see Jesus 1" I asked him. " I know Him." " What do you know about Him?" " He redeemed me." " How do you know that?" " He told me so." A terse answer; but how full! Here was the foundation of faith— God's Word. My old friend added, " He told me something else. He said, ' I forgave thee all that debt.'" " Then I suppose you reckon you are forgiven 1" " He told me so.'' This seemed to be the old fellows way of clenching the rail, and his knowledge of what God had told him surprised me— the memory was fresh in his mind. Did he fear the Lord might forget him 1 The answer was ready, " I will not forget thee "— the Lord told him so. Did his sins seem great 1 The Lord told him, " All sin shall be forgiven unto men." He had heard Christ's words, " He that hnareth My Word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life." Christ had " told him so," and he believed it. " But you were not always thus 1" I asked. " No, Sir, but He was near me when I was a great sinner ; He has never been far off." In July I met him again- his testimony was the same. " He told me so." For all the trials, temptations, sins and sorrows of his way, he met me with these words, " My Grace is sufficient for thee ; He told me so." " God is not a man, that He should lie- Hath He said, and shall 1 le not do it 1 or hath He spoker, and shall He net make it good 1" The Volume is full of promises— words that He has told us—" and they all seem to fit," added the old man. Shall we not hear what He will tell us? " Have ye not known? have ye not heard?" " I told you and ye believed not." " This is My Beloved Son, hear ye Him." W. LUFF.
