The first blessing that an abiding Saviour brings is salvation. This day, He says, this day is salvation come to thy house. Salvation is not a creed, salvation is not a church, salvation is not baptism, salvation is not the Lord's Supper, salvation is not membership with any Church, salvation is a PERSON. Remember that. Jesus says, “I have come to abide in thy house, and I am thy salvation.” “Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song, and He also is become my salvation, therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.” “And received him joyfully.” Dear soul, receive Christ as He offers himself to you, receive Him as your Saviour, and then you begin to enjoy salvation.
