All that the Father giveth me shall come to me;
And him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
John 6:37

A saying of Christ about those who come to Him.
We read that Jesus said, - ‘him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out’.

What does ‘coming’ mean? It means the movement of the soul which takes place when a man, feeling his sins, and finding out that he cannot saves himself, hears of Christ, applies to Christ, trust in Christ, lays hold on Christ and leans all weight on Christ for salvation. When this happens, a man is said, in Scripture language, to ‘come’ to Christ.

What did our Lord mean by saying, ‘I will in no wise cast out’? He meant that He will not refuse to save anyone who comes to Him, no matter what they may have been. His past sins may have been very great. But does he come to Christ by faith? Then Christ will receive him graciously, pardon him freely, place him in the number of His dear children and give him everlasting life.

These are golden works indeed! They have smoothed down many dying pillow, and calmed many a trouble conscience. Let them sink down deeply into our memories, and abide there continually. A day will come when flesh and heart shall fail, and the world can help us no more. Happy shall we be in that day, if the Spirit witnesses with our spirit that we have really come to Christ!

We taught by these words that Christ has brought into the world a salvation open and free to everyone. Our Lord draws a picture of it from the story brazen serpent, by which bitten Israelites in the wilderness were healed. Everyone that chose to ‘look’ at the brazen serpent might live. Just in the same way, everyone who desires eternal life may ‘look’ at Christ for faith, and have it freely. There is no barrier, no limit, no restriction. The term gospel are wide and simple. Everyone may ‘look and live’.
