“You are not reading of a Savior who was, but of a Savior who is. The Lord Jesus is moved by the same sympathy, is possessed of the same power, and is as quickly and as tenderly responsive to the appeal of the sorrowful and the necessities of the needy, as when the tabernacle of His humanity adorned and consecrated our earth, and when to its asylum thronged earth’s sons and daughters of suffering and of woe.
Oh, it is a truth as replete with comfort as with wonder, ‘Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever.’ Beloved, cling to this Unchanging One!
No ebb in the tide of your affection, nor trembling in the needle of your faith, can create the slightest variation in His love or faithfulness. Your waywardness has not chilled it, your fickleness has not affected it, your sinfulness has not forfeited it, because He is essentially, immutably, and eternally the same. ‘If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny himself.'”
– Octavius Winslow
