Salvation Obtained Only by Looking unto Jesus
Isaiah 45:22
Look to me, and be you saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.


I. THE INVITATION, "Look unto Me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth," may be regarded as involving an offer of an invaluable blessing, a statement of the means by which the blessing is secured, and finally, an intimation of the extent of the offer made.

II. THE REASON WHY THAT INVITATION SHOULD BE COMPLIED WITH. "For I am God, and there is none else." There are two ideas involved in this statement.

1. That Jesus is the true God, and therefore able to save.

2. That on Him only should we depend, for there is no other being in the universe who is able to rescue an immortal soul from eternal ruin.We see from this subject —

1. The folly and danger of unbelief.

2. The habitual duty of all true Christians. It is to look unto Jesus at every stage of their spiritual history.
