All that the Father giveth unto me, shall come to me; and him that comes to me, I will in no wise cast out, and this is the Father’s will, which has sent me, that of all which he has given me, I should lose nothing. John 6:37-39.

O my dear Saviour, I am also given unto thee from thy Father; for lo! I come to thee. Consequently I cannot be lost nor cast out by thee, because thou art come to save, and not to condemn and reject even the most wicked and hardened sinners. For if they are lost, it is not for being rejected by thee, but for rejecting thee; much less wilt thou reject him that believes in thee, though it be but faintly.

Not to condemn the sons of men.
Did Christ the Son of God appear,
No weapons in his hands are seen,
No flaming sword nor thunder there.

Such was the pity of our God,
He loved the race of men so well,
He sent his Son to bear our load
Of sins, and save our souls from hell.

Sinners believe the Saviour’s word.
Trust in his mighty name, and live:
A thousand joys his lips afford,
His hands a thousand blessings give.

But vengeance and damnation lies,
On rebels who refuse the grace;
Who God’s eternal Son despise,
The hottest hell shall be their place.
