The Sinner’s Look

GOD has looked down and seen your state, and in mercy has wrought that He may meet your misery and deliver you; and now if you want liberty and salvation He bids you look. “Look unto Me,” the Lord says. The Lord has had two looks at us — one to search us, a second to pity us. How many looks at Him must we take for salvation? Only one. You say, But I cannot see Him. He does not say, See Me; He says, Look, look, and be saved. Only seven words, “Look unto Me, and be ye saved.” It is the very simplicity of it that stumbles people.
