Jesus' Salvation Cleaners

Cleans Whiter Than Snow

Wiley  Vaughn
One day I noticed my soul was dirty. Really dirty. You see, I lived in a dirty world, and the dirt of this world stuck to me like a magnet. I tried to clean myself up, doing good things here and there, giving money to good causes and trying to be nicer to people. Funny thing, but the more I tried to clean myself, the dirtier I got.

My friends said not to worry about dirt, because I looked fine to them. Even some of my family said I was no dirtier than anyone else, but I saw dirt on them too. I was getting worried about dirt, awfully worried. It got so bad I couldn't eat or sleep. I wanted to die, but I was afraid of dying with all that dirt on me. I was filthy and I knew it.

Walking along, feeling dirty and miserable, I saw this strange man running down the street. He was smiling and whooping and yelling like no one I'd ever seen before. "Do you want to get clean?" he cried. "Then go to Jesus' Salvation Cleaners on Calvary Road." What else could I do? I ran across the street to Calvary Road. There I met the master cleaner, Jesus.

He didn't try to run me off, or lecture me about being dirty. He just offered to make me whiter than snow, right then, at that very moment. I very much wanted to be clean, but I just had to ask how much it would cost, to clean that much dirt. Then Jesus smiled and said he would clean me for free. What a deal! I accepted Jesus' offer and now I'm cleaner than ever, cleaner than the day I was born. The best part is, I'm clean forever!

Friend, if Jesus would clean all that dirt off me for free, you know he'll do it for you as well. The Bible says so! Isaiah 1:18 "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." Call on Jesus right now!

    Very true indeed. That is one of my favorite verses in all the Bible. It states so simply and clearly God's intent to redeem all who will coem to Him. Good work.
