O Lord our Lord, how Excellent is Thy Name in all the Earth!

God is not a God of confusion. 

In His infinite wisdom and majesty He has made a way whereby we can be saved. 

Jesus. 

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Acts 16:31 

“To many faith seems a hard thing. The truth is, it is only hard because it is easy. Naaman thought it hard that he should have to wash in Jordan; but if it had been some great thing, he would have done it right cheerfully. 

People think that salvation must be the result of some act or feeling, very mysterious, and very difficult; but God’s thought are not our thoughts, neither are His ways our ways." (C. Spurgeon)

For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9 

"In order that the feeblest and the most ignorant may be saved, He has made the way of salvation as easy as the A,B,C. There is nothing about it to puzzle anyone; only, as everybody expects to be puzzled by it, many are quite bewildered when they find it to be so exceedingly simple. 

The fact is, we do not believe that God means what He is saying; we act as if it could not be true. When the Lord uplifts His dear Son before a sinner, that sinner should take Him without hesitation. If you take Him, you have Him; and none can take Him from you. Out with your hand, man, and take Him at once." (C. Spurgeon) 

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:14-16 

Amazing Grace! 

O Lord our Lord, how excellent is Thy name in all the earth! Psalm 8:9
