Jesus the Ladder of Salvation ㅡ
“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.” (John 15:4)
Christ, who connects earth with heaven, is the ladder.
The base is planted firmly on the earth in His humanity; the topmost round reaches to the throne of God in His divinity.
The humanity of Christ embraces fallen humanity, while His divinity lays hold upon the throne of God.
We are saved by climbing round after round of the ladder, looking to Christ, clinging to Christ, mounting step by step to the height of Christ, so that He is made unto us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption.
Faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and charity are the rounds of this ladder.
All these graces are to be manifested in the Christian character; and “if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: for so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.” (2 Peter 1:10, 11).
(Testimonies for the Church Volume 6 147.2)
