>> The Terms of Our Salvation
>>
>>     Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.
>> Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, 
>> that
>> your joy may be full. John 16:23, 24.
>>
>>     The disciples of Christ who were with Him from day to day did not
>> comprehend His mission. . . . They were unacquainted with His unlimited
>> resources and power. Although they had witnessed His miracles they did 
>> not
>> discern His relationship to the Father. Just before His death He said to
>> them, "Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name." In simple language
>> Jesus
>> explained to them that the secret of their success would be in asking the
>> Father for strength and grace in His name. He would be present before the
>> face of the Father to make request in their behalf. . . .
>>
>>     We need to become better acquainted with the terms upon which
>> salvation
>> will be ours, and better understand the relation which Christ sustains to
>> us
>> and to the Father. He has pledged Himself to honor His Son's name as we
>> present it at the throne of grace. We should consider the great sacrifice
>> that was made in our behalf to purchase for us the robe of righteousness
>> woven in the loom of heaven. He has invited us to the wedding feast, and
>> has
>> provided for every one of us the wedding garment. The robe of
>> righteousness
>> has been purchased at infinite cost, and how daring is the insult to
>> Heaven
>> when one presents himself as a candidate for entrance at the wedding 
>> feast
>> when wearing his own citizen's dress of self-righteousness! How greatly 
>> he
>> dishonors God, openly showing contempt for the sacrifice made on Calvary!
>> .
>> . .
>>
>>     No one will taste of the marriage supper of the Lamb who has not on a
>> wedding garment. But John writes, ". . . He that overcometh, the same
>> shall
>> be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the
>> book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before 
>> his
>> angels." Then, before it is eternally too late, let each one go to the
>> heavenly Merchantman for the white raiment, the eyesalve, the gold tried
>> in
>> the fire, and the oil of heavenly grace.
