Loved the Lost

Read:  Psalm 14 / Proverbs 14 / 2 Samuel 20 / John 6

 

Psalm 14:2,3 The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Proverbs 14:25 A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.

2 Samuel 20:22 Then the woman went unto all the people in her wisdom… And Joab returned to Jerusalem unto the king.

John 6:67,68 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

 

The Lord looked from His lofty place

To see humanity undone.

 Not one had turned to seek His face,

And none did good, not even one. 

 

But God so loved the lost that He

Sent Christ to pay the debt we owe. 

Apart from Christ, where could we flee?

To Whom but Jesus shall we go?
