THERE IS A FOUNTAIN





In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness. (Zec.13:1)

A fountain to make the unclean clean. This brings to mind the dilema expressed in Job's question in Job 14:4

Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.

What a dilema! With man, yes, this is impossible but with God all things are possible!

Because, "where sin abounded, grace did much more abound" (Rom.5:20)

Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? CHRIST ALONE!

"There is a fountain
filled with blood
drawn from Immanuel's
veins; and sinners,
plunged beneath that
flood, Lose all their
guilty stains:"
(There is a Fountain/William Cowper/1771)


"And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen (Rev.1:5-6)
