Righteous hatred



Righteous hatred

“Ye that love the Lord, hate evil.” 
Psalm 97:10

Suggested Further Reading: 
Genesis 39

With regard to some sins, if thou wouldst avoid them, take one piece of advice—run away from them. Sins of lust especially are never to be fought with, except after Joseph’s way; and you know what Joseph did—he ran away. 

A French philosopher said, “Fly, fly, Telemaque; there remains no way of conquest but by flight.” The true soldiers of Christ’s cross will stand foot to foot with any sin in the world except this; but here they turn their backs and fly, and then they become conquerors. 

“Flee fornication,” said one of old, and there was wisdom in the counsel; there is no way of overcoming it but by flight. If the temptation attack thee, shut thine eye and stop thy ear, and away, away from it; for thou art only safe when thou art beyond sight and earshot. 

“Ye that love the Lord, hate evil;” and endeavour with all your might to resist and overcome it in yourselves. Once again, ye that love the Lord, if ye would keep from sin, seek always to have a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit, never trust yourselves a single day without having a fresh renewal of your piety before you go forth to the day’s duties. 

We are never safe unless we are in the Lord’s hands.
 No Christian, be he who he may, or what he may, though he be renowned for his piety and prayerfulness, can exist a day without falling into great sin unless the Holy Spirit shall be his protector. 

Old master Dyer says, “Lock up your hearts by prayer every morning, and give God the key, so that nothing can get in; and then when thou unlockest thy heart at night, there will be a sweet fragrance and perfume of love, joy, and holiness.”

For meditation:

 There are two sides to victory over temptation—resisting the flesh and yielding to the Spirit (Galatians 5:16). Sometimes the emphasis will be to flee, sometimes to follow, sometimes to fight (1 Timothy 6:11-12), but neither side will be effective without the other.

Go; Take Your Property


Go; Take Your Property

"Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee: go up and possess it, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged"  
 (Deuteronomy 1:21).

There is a heritage of grace which we ought to be bold enough to win for our possession. 
All that one believer has gained is free to another. 

We may be strong in faith, fervent in love, and abundant in labor; there is nothing to prevent it; let us go up and take possession. 
The sweetest experience and the brightest grace are as much for us as for any of our brethren; Jehovah has set it before us; no one can deny our right; let us go up and possess it in His name.

The world also lies before us to be conquered for the LORD Jesus. 
We are not to leave any country or corner of it unsubdued. 
That slum near our house is before us, not to baffle our endeavors, but to yield to them. 

We have only to summon courage enough to go forward, and we shall win dark homes and hard hearts for Jesus. 
Let us never leave the people in a lane or alley to die because we have not enough faith in Jesus and His gospel to go up and possess the land. 
No spot is too benighted, no person so profane as to be beyond the power of grace. 

Cowardice, begone! Faith marches to the conquest.

False professors solemnly warned


False professors solemnly warned

“For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.” Philippians 3:18,19

Suggested Further Reading:
 Acts 20:18-35

The apostle was a very honest pastor—when he marked anything amiss in his people, he did not blush to tell them; he was not like your modern minister, whose pride is that he never was personal in his life, and who thus glories in his shame, for had he been honest, he would have been personal, for he would have dealt out the truth of God without deceitfulness, and would have reproved men sharply, that they might be sound in the faith.

 “I tell you,” says Paul, “because it concerns you.”
 Paul was very honest; he did not flinch from telling the whole truth, and telling it often too, though some might think that once from the lip of Paul would be of more effect than a hundred times from any one else. 

“I have told you often,” says he, “and I tell you yet again that there are some who are the enemies of the cross of Christ.”
 And while faithful, you will notice that the apostle was, as every true minister should be, extremely affectionate. 

He could not bear to think that any members of the churches under his care should swerve from the truth, he wept while he denounced them; he did not know how to wield the thunderbolt with a tearless eye; he did not know how to pronounce the threatening of God with a dry and husky voice. 

No; while he spoke terrible things the tear was in his eye, and when he reproved sharply, his heart beat was so high with love, that those who heard him denounce so solemnly, were yet convinced that his harshest words were dictated by affection.

 “I have told you often, and I tell you, even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ.”

For meditation: 

What effect do you have upon your pastor 
(Hebrews 13:17)?

A hearer in disguise



A hearer in disguise

‘And it was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam; why feignest thou thyself to be another? for I am sent to thee with heavy tidings.’ 
1 Kings 14:6

Suggested Further Reading: 
Isaiah 56:1–7

Here was an occasional hearer; and we make the observation that this occasional hearer was totally destitute of all true piety.
Most occasional hearers are.

Those who have true religion are not occasional hearers. You will find that truly gracious persons are diligent in the use of the means. Instead of thinking it a toil to come up to the place of worship,
I know there are some of you who wish there were two Sundays in the week; and the happiest times you ever have are when you are sitting in these seats and joining in our sacred songs.

There are no words which give you a better idea of heaven as a place than:

‘Where congregations ne’er break up, And Sabbaths have no end.’

Gracious souls love the place where God’s honour dwells, and the assembling of themselves together is always a blessed thing to them; but occasional hearers are generally graceless persons—I know how you spend your Sunday.

 There is the morning: you are not up very early; it takes a long time to dress on a Sunday morning; then follows the Sunday paper, with the news of the week; that must be gone through.

The wife has been toiling hard all the morning with the dinner; what do you care? Then there is the afternoon, when there is a little more lolling about.

Then in the evening, there is the walk.
But the day, after all, is not very happy and comfortable: and sometimes you have wished there were no Sundays except that they give your body a little rest.
You do not fear God, nor do you care for his service.

For meditation:

 For many today business, shopping and sport would have to be added to Spurgeon’s description of the occasional hearer’s Sunday. The Christian Sunday has been attacked in exactly the same way as the Jewish Sabbath (Nehemiah 13:15–17).
Is the Lord’s Day important enough for you to keep Sunday special?
