Jesus is above all praise. As the stars disappear when the sun rises, so all subject fade away when we think of Christ. He is spoken of elsewhere as a Friend, Teacher, Light, Redeemer, Ransom, Physician, and here as a Great Saviour.

I. How JESUS SAVES.

1. Kindly. it is often said, "He was moved with compassion" (John 11:35).

2. Quickly. Sometimes accidents are long before they are healed. Christ heals and forgives " straightway."

3. Fully. "From their sins." From pride, anger, hate, wrong words, evil thoughts. From death and hell to heaven.

II. WHOM HE SAVES.

1. "Them that come." Christ is a Spring. If we thirst we must come. Bread of Life, Burden-bearer, Physician.

2. All who come. "To the uttermost." Some children are much worse than others. They know more, and yet sin against God. But Christ can save the worst among us.

III. A GREAT ENCOURAGEMENT. Jesus still lives. The priests died. Our friends die. Jesus never dies. Let us come to Him to-day, and receive His great salvation.

(R. Brown.)
