DAILY READINGS: 1 Samuel 4-5; Isaiah 47; 2 Corinthians 8

Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them... Zephaniah:1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold...but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot. 1 Peter:1:18-19

The Apostle Peter reminds us that the things this world values most—silver and gold—could not save us. The Lord Jesus—the spotless, holy, sinless, impeccable Lamb of God—must give His life at Calvary to deliver us from the judgment of God. Unsaved soul, come to Christ and accept the redemption He offers through His blood, before it is too late. "After this [death] the Judgment" (Heb:9:27).      —W. H. Burnett

The rich man was there but his money, had melted and vanished away, A pauper he stood in the judgment, his debts were too heavy to pay.
