the whole story of his life!
A quaint old man used to carry
a little book which he took very
often from his pocket, and which
he called his "biography." It had
only three pages, and there was
not a word written on any of them;
yet he said the little book told
the whole story of his life!
The first page was black--
that was his sin, which was his
condition by nature. He would
shudder whenever he looked at it.
The second page was red--
that was the blood of CHRIST,
and his face glowed when
he gazed upon it.
The third page was white--
that was himself washed in
CHRIST'S, blood, made
whiter than snow.
HIS book told the whole
story of every redeemed life.
Between the black of our sins,
and the white of redemption--
must always come the red
of CHRIST'S, blood.
cleanses us from all sin!" 1 John 1:7
