GOSPEL NUGGETS
Isa 55:1 "Ho! Everyone who thirsts, Come to the waters; And you who have no money, Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk Without money and without price.
If you are thirsty for the waters of salvation, the joy that comes with it ("wine") and its spiritual nourishment ("milk"), you can buy all of it without money and without price.
True Story
One time a Sunday School teacher could not understand what the verse is saying. He thought to himself: "How is it possible to buy without money?"
A little six-year old girl answered it for him. "You can buy without money by charging it to someone else."
And that is exactly the nature of salvation. You want salvation? It is very costly! None of us can afford it. You can't have it in exchange of your good works, morality and religious activities.
But you can have it by charging it to the Lord Jesus Christ who provided the payment of salvation when He died on the cross for you. God, as it were, is offering all of us a credit card with the name "Jesus" on it.
And so even though you have nothing in you to have God's salvation. You can come and "buy" salvation by charging it to the Savior! Swipe it on Him!
Repent and trust in Him and the payment He made on the cross for the sinner's salvation!!
