The Terms of Salvation - Coming to Christ

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Yes, to have eternal life, a person must come to Christ. Those who refuse to come to Him will be lost eternally. Read John 6:35 carefully. In this verse you will see that coming to Christ is synonymous with believing on Christ. Those who have believed on Christ have come to Him and those who have come to Christ are those who have truly believed on Him.

When a person comes to a skilled surgeon he does so because he knows he has a need and he believes that the surgeon can help him. When a person comes to the Great Physician, it is because he knows he has a great need. He needs Someone who can take care of his enormous sin problem. He comes to the Great Physician because he believes that He is the only One who can cure him of his heart disease (Jeremiah 17:9).

Have you come to the Saviour for cleansing? If you come to Him, He will never cast you out and will never turn you away (John 6:37).

Just As I Am

Just as I am, without one plea,
But that thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!

Just as I am, and waiting not,
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!

Just as I am, tho' tossed about,
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings within and fears without,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!

Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind,
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!

Just as I am, Thou wilt recieve,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve,
Because Thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!

Just as I am, Thy love unknown,
Hath broken every barrier down;
Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
