His love held redemption--was a saving love. "He that cometh unto me I will in no wise cast out." His love knew fullest forgiveness. He said to the woman taken in sin, "Neither do I condemn thee; go and sin no more." His love brought friendship. "Ye are my friends." His love gave new meaning to justice. "Her sins which are many are forgiven-for she loved much." His love gave inspiration, "If ye abide in me and my words abide in you ye shall ask what ye will and it shall be done." "Greater works than these shall ye do." His love held the promise of eternal companionship. "All mine are thine and thine are mine. I will come and receive you unto myself, that where I am ye may be also." "Outlawed men, criminals and lepers and madmen, became as little children at His word, and all the wrongs and bruises inflicted on them were healed beneath His kindly glance. This is how He lived and this Gospel was the Gospel of a life He lived in such a way that men saw that love was the only thing worth living for--that life had meaning only as it had love." O Love that wilt not let me go, I rest my weary soul in Thee. |
