When J.P. Morgan, the multimillionaire, died, it was found that his will consisted of about 10,000 words and 37 articles. He made many transactions, involving large sums of money. However from this statement we see his most important transaction “I commit my soul into the hands of my Saviour, in full confidence that, having redeemed and washed it in His most precious blood, He will present it faultless before my Heavenly Father; and I entreat my children to maintain and defend, at all hazard and at any cost of personal sacrifice, the blessed doctrine of the complete atonement for sin through the blood of Jesus Christ, once offered, and through that alone.”
P. Morgan’s immense wealth held no sway over the eternal destiny of his soul. Like the dying thief at Calvary, he relied solely on God’s mercy. Regardless of one’s identity or past actions, salvation rests in Christ alone. As the Scriptures proclaim, for only “the blood of Jesus Christ….cleanses…from all sin”
