SWIMMING LESSONS OR A SAVIOUR?
For the son of man come to seek and to
save that which was lost. Luke 19:10.
If a man unable to swim fell into deep
water and was crying out for help, what
would you do? Throw him a book on five
easy swimming lessons? Shout encourage
ment? How about jumping into water and
crying out, " Just look at me brother;
Follow my example’ I'll teach you how to
swim and save yourself. " You would do no
such thing; This drowning man doesn't
need swiming lessons, its too'late for that
What he needs is a saviour, one who will
come to him in his desperate state, reach
down, lift him up and deliver him from
the clutches of death.
Its the same way with man's spiritual
condition. The Bible says that "All have
sinned and that the wages of sin is death."
Everyone born into this world has fallen
into sin and its clammy embrace is doomed
to destruction. The oply means of escape
must be through a " Saviour." One who
stoops down in grace and delivers the
needy souls from judgement. It is imposs
ible for a man to learn to "Save Himself."
Trying his best won't do and following the
example of others is of no avail. What he
needs is a saviour. How thankful we should
be then that "the son of man is come to
seek and to save that which was lost,"
(Luke 19:10) He delivers all who trust him
for their salvation. Even as a drowning
personmust relax and cease his struggling
in the arms of his rescuer. We must do
the same with this saviour, the Lord Jesus
Christ. Some has aptly expressed it in this
way. Let go and let God. Believe on the
Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved
(Act 16;31).
I was sinkmg deep in sin, far from the
peaceful shore:
Very deeply stained within, sinking to
rise no more;
But the master of the sea, heard my
desparing cry
From the waters lifted me, now safe am I.
The God who was wise enough to make a
perfect man is loving enough to rescue a
fallen one.
