There are only two things which I am sure of

In a day of information explosion (think nuclear!), these are must know truths from a couple of hundred years ago.

John Newton, former slave trader, writer of Amazing Grace, pastor and saved sinner writes:


When I was young, I was sure of many things.
But now that I am old, there are only two
things which I am sure of
:
One is that I am a miserable sinner!
Secondly, that Christ is an all-sufficient Savior!

He is well taught--who learns these two lessons.

"This saying is trustworthy and deserving of full
acceptance: 'Christ Jesus came into the world
to save sinners'
--and I am the worst of them!"
1 Timothy 1:15
