HE REFUED HIS PARDON- CONCLUDING PART

 

The concluding part of Wilson's story 

   God's justice is as infinite as His mercy. to satisfy His justice, sin must be punished. But to reconcile justice with mercy, God gave His own Son as our substitute; Fod God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever beliveth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (john 3:16). No one can fathom the infinitude of God's love. Christ was not alone in His substitutionary sacrifice on Calvary, it was God. This is the supreme example of what is meant by "A pardon a pardon is an act of grace." Certainly you had no part in obtaining it, for deed for signed on Calvary, nineteen centuries before you were  born. In your case it has waited a long time for delivery, and delivery is not complete without acceptance.
    Wilson's pardon cost only the scratch of the president's pen. Your pardon cost the life-blood of God's son. Wilson's perdon meant only a few short years added to the sordid life of a common criminal. Your pardon is a reprieve from hell, and a deed to heaven. But acceptance is essential todelivery, and acceptance is essential to delivery, and acceptance of a blood- bought gift of such infinite price is more than a mere intellectual assent to the fact of calvary. Wilson believed that his pardon had been granted, but refused to avail himself of it. To accept Christ is definitely to renounce a self centered life for a Christ centered life.
    Wilson's was strange case. But then, Wilson was a fool. - Stephen E. Slocum. Ph.D.
    If you have not already accepted the pardon that God has made for you through Jesus, please do so now. Pray, Jesus will set you free from sin
