Heaven
“The things which God hath prepared for them that love him. ” 1 Corinthians 2:9
Suggested Further Reading: Matthew 26:26-29
One of the places where you may most of all expect to see heaven is at the Lord’s table. There are some of you, my dearly beloved, who absent yourselves from the supper of the Lord on earth; let me tell you in God’s name, that you are not only sinning against God, but robbing yourselves of a most inestimable privilege.
If there is one season in which the soul gets into closer communion with Christ than another, it is at the Lord’s table.
How often have we sung there:
“Can I Gethsemane forget? Remember thee and all thy pains,
Or there thy conflicts see, And all thy love to me,
Thine agony and bloody sweat, Yes, while a pulse, or breath remains,
And not remember thee? I will remember thee.”
And then you see what an easy transition it is to heaven:
“And when these failing lips grow dumb,
And thought and memory flee;
When thou shalt in thy kingdom come,
Jesus, remember me.”
O my erring brethren, you who live on, unbaptised, and who receive not this sacred supper, I tell you they will not save you—most assuredly they will not, and if you are not saved before you receive them they will be an injury to you; but if you are the Lord’s people, why need you stay away? I tell you, the Lord’s table is so high a place that you can see heaven from it very often.
You get so near the cross there, you breathe so near the cross, that your sight becomes clearer, and the air brighter, and you can see more of heaven there than anywhere else.
Christian, do not neglect the supper of your Lord; for if you do, he will hide heaven from you, in a measure.
For meditation:
When you come to the Lord’s Table, do you look forward to the future in anticipation as well as to the past in gratitude
(1 Corinthians 11:26)?
