Daily Sacrifice, May 11 (13:9-10)
“O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself; but in Me is thine help. I will be thy King: where is any other that may save thee?”— Hosea 13:9, 10.
THE question finds its only answer in Acts 4:12, where the Apostle Peter declares, when speaking of the risen Christ, “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” The Lord Jesus is God the Son become Man to accomplish our redemption. To receive Him in faith is to be saved eternally. To turn from Him in unbelief is to be lost forever—to destroy oneself. There is no other alternative.
