Faith That Saves
People are troubled sometimes for fear their faith should not be of the right quality, or might prove of insufficient quantity to save them. But it is important to observe that it is not the character nor the amount of faith that saves. It is the Person in whom faith rests. The strongest faith in self-effort, or in the Church, or religious observances, would leave the soul forever lost. But the feeblest faith in the Lord Jesus Christ who died and rose again saves eternally. Some people try to make a Saviour of their faith or their feelings, but Christ alone is the Saviour; and faith is but the hand that reaches out to Him.
—H.A. Ironside
