I have a great admiration for the old coloured woman who said, if God
told her to jump through a stone wall she would jump; getting through
the wall was God's work, not hers, and she would do whatever God told
her to do. The greatest enemy God and man have got is unbelief. Christ
found it on both sides of the cross. It was the very thing that put
Him to death. The Jews did not believe Him; they did not believe God
had sent Him; they took Him to Calvary and murdered Him; and the first
thing we find after He got up out of the grave was unbelief again.
Thomas, one of His own disciples, did not believe He had risen. He
said, Thomas, feel these wounds; and Thomas did, and believed, and
said "My Lord and my God." Now those Christians here that have learnt
to trust God in past years will bear me out in this, that the more
they know of God, the more they can trust Him. Why? They have found
God to be true. When man has failed, God never has failed; and when
every one else has disappointed them, God has proved true. Now, you
that never trusted Him, won't you just leap right into His arms
to-night? Won't you just take Him at His word, and believe on Him now?
