Our only Hope

I really appreciate this post from ICR by Henry Morris that speaks to the pervading pressure of people and the media to diminish the value of who Christ is.
"The thought that the death of Jesus and His shed blood were somehow the ransom price paid to redeem lost sinners from an eternal prison in hell has been a stumbling block to many of those very sinners. Yet that is the teaching of Scripture, whether it appeals to their reasonings or not. "Ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold...But with the precious blood of Christ" (I Peter 1:19-19). HMM
He will keep right on being the Christ of God no matter what puny little mankind has to say about the fact. All will bow the knee on that day and have to acknowledge him as the only Saviour acceptable to God. Therefore, God help us to be patient and wait for His positive commitment to His Word. Know that's Hope.
