Come to the Water

"Whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst" (John 4:14).

I thank God for Christian men and women who want to know the facts and the truths as they have come from God. Thank God, they are not just looking for someone to give them a relaxing religious message! There are the facts - the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses. There is a purging element in Christianity. Then there is the Holy Spirit, the blessed Spirit of God, who brings us the peace and tranquility of the waters of Shiloah.

The loving God invites us to the stream, the only perennial stream in the world, the only stream that never runs dry, the only stream that never overflows and destroys.

There flows from Calvary a stream
For every sinner's pain,
And he that drinketh, Jesus said,
Shall never thirst again.

This stream from Calvary still flows
To bless and cleanse and heal,
And h that drinketh, Jesus said,
New life and rest shall feel.
