GET SOME SALT.
By Rev. John Y. Ewart.
"Have salt in yourselves," said Jesus
once to his disciples. Get that which will
give to your life that peculiar relish and
power which will distinguish you from an
easy-going, pleasure-loving, Christless world,
One of the ingredients of this kind of
salt is peace with God through our Lord
Jesus Christ. Get this at any cost. It is
more precious than gold. "The gold and
the crystal cannot equal it, and the exchange
of it shall not be for jewels of fine
gold."
One important distinction between a true
Christian and a worldly man is the possession
of this sweet, rich peace. It is the
consciousness that God is smiling upon us.
It is the realization that all is well with
our souls. We have settled the greatest
of questions by accepting God's solution of
it and by taking the abundant pardon he
lias freely provided in Christ. Upon him
we have rolled the burden of our guilt. To
him we look for daily cleansing and renewal.
We are strong for life's duties and
calm amid life's trials through the grace
which he imparts. We look forward with
confidence into the unexplored future because
we are sure he will do for us "exceeding
abundantly above all that we can
ask or think."
Now such psace is an anchor to the soul.
You cannot stampede the man who has t.
Men go down in the fierce battle of life for
lack of this strength of soul which is born
of God in him who accepts Jesus Christ's
solution of the problems of sin, death and
the hereafter. The prophet Elisha was
once appealed to by the men of Jericho to
heal the unwholesome waters of their city.
In obedience to God's word he cast into
"the spring of the waters" a new cruse of
salt and the fountain was purified. Now
when we are justified by faith and have
peace with God through our Lord Jesus
Ulirist we have had healing salt cast into
the very fountain of life.
Dr. Banks describes the experiences of
a lady who passed through the terrors of
the siege of Vicksburg and had had the
awful din of bursting shells and the
roar of cannon and turmoil of war ringing
in her ears for weeks. To such a one the
coming of peace was most welcome.
"Silence and night," she wrote to a
friend, "are once more united. It seems
to me I can hear the silence and feel it, too.
It wraps me like a soft carment: liow else
can I express this peace?" Such is the
experience of a man who has heard the
Rims of an accusing conscience thundering
within him their warnings and thi'eatenings
and has appealed to him by whose blood we
are "sprinkled from an evil conscience."
The comfort of a great peace has come to
that soul.
The world with all its pleasures and gains
cannot give the heart such peace. It is the |
distinctive and peculiar gift of Jesus Christ
to any and every penitent, believing and
obedient soul.?'New York Observer. J
