The blood


The blood

“When I see the blood, I will pass over you.” Exodus 12:13

Suggested Further Reading: 1 Corinthians 15:12-22

The blood of Jesus Christ is blood that has been accepted. 
Christ died—he was buried; but neither heaven nor earth could tell whether God had accepted the ransom. 

There was wanted God’s seal upon the great Magna Carta of man’s salvation, and that seal was put, in that hour when God summoned the angel, and commanded him to descend from heaven and roll away the stone.

 Christ was put in the prison house of the grave, as a hostage for his people. Until God had signed the warrant for acquittal of all his people, Christ must abide in the bonds of death. 

He did not attempt to break his prison; he did not come out illegally, by wrenching down the bars of his dungeon; he waited: he folded up the napkin, laying it by itself: he laid the grave-clothes in a separate place; he waited, waited patiently, and at last down from the skies, like the flash of a meteor, the angel descended, touched the stone and rolled it away; and when Christ came out, rising from the dead in the glory of his Father’s power, then was the seal put upon the great charter of our redemption. 

The blood was accepted, and sin was forgiven. 
And now, soul, it is not possible for God to reject you, if you come this day to him, pleading the blood of Christ. 

God cannot—and here we speak with reverence too—the everlasting God cannot reject a sinner who pleads the blood of Christ: for if he did so, it would be to deny himself, and to contradict all his former acts. 

He has accepted blood, and he will accept it.

For meditation:

 Are you still stuck at the point of asking 
“What proves the resurrection”? 
Or have you advanced to consider what the resurrection proves (Romans 4:25; Acts 17:31)?

The wailing of Risca



The wailing of Risca

“Suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment.” Jeremiah 4:20

Suggested Further Reading:
 Luke 12:35-48

Live while you live; while it is called today, work, for the night cometh wherein no man can work. And let us learn never to do anything which we would not wish to be found doing if we were to die.

 We are sometimes asked by young people whether they may go to the theatre, whether they may dance, or whether they may do this or that. 

You may do anything which you would not be ashamed to be doing when Christ shall come. You may do anything which you would not blush to be found doing if the hand of death should smite you; but if you would dread to die in any spot, go not there; if you would not wish to enter the presence of your God with such-and-such a word upon your lip, utter not that word; or if there would be a thought that would be uncongenial to the judgment-day, seek not to think that thought. 

So act that you may feel you can take your shroud with you wherever you go. Happy is he that dies in his pulpit. Blessed is the man that dies in his daily business, for he is found with his loins girt about him serving his Master; but, unhappy must he be to whom death comes as an intruder, and finds him engaged in that which he will blush to have ever touched, when God shall appear in judgment. 

Power supreme; thou everlasting king; permit not death to intrude upon an ill-spent hour, but find me rapt in meditation high; singing my great Creator; proclaiming the love of Jesus, or lifting up my heart in prayer for myself and my fellow-sinners.

For meditation: 

Life contains a final moment when it will be impossible to explain away or cover up something inappropriate.

note: This sermon was occasioned by a mine explosion, in which some two hundred or so miners were killed, at Risca, near Newport in South Wales. Spurgeon had often gone to the Vale of Risca to rest and preach.

Following Leads to Honor


Following Leads to Honor 
"If any man serve Me, let him follow Me; 
and where l am, there shall also My servant be: 
if any man serve Me, him will My Father honor"  
 (John 12:26).

The highest service is imitation. 
If I would be Christ's servant I must be His follower.
 To do as Jesus did is the surest way of bringing honor to His name. 

Let me mind this every day.
 If I imitate Jesus I shall have His company: if I am like Him I shall be with Him. In due time He will take me up to dwell with Him above, if, meanwhile, I have striven to follow Him here below. 

After His suffering our LORD came to His throne, and even so, after we have suffered a while with Him here below, we also shall arrive in glory.

 The issue of our LORD's life shall be the issue of ours: if we are with Him in His humiliation we shall be with Him in His glory. Come, my soul, pluck up courage and put down thy feet in the blood-marked footprints which thy LORD has left thee.

 Let me not fail to note that the Father will honor those who follow His Son. If He sees me true to Jesus, He will put marks of favor and honor upon me for His Son's sake. 

No honor can be like this. 
Princes and emperors bestow the mere shadows of honor; the substance of glory comes from the Father. 

Wherefore, my soul, cling thou to thy LORD Jesus more closely than ever.

Once a curse but now a blessing


Once a curse but now a blessing

‘And it shall come to pass, 
that as ye were a curse among the heathen, 
O house of Judah, and house of Israel; 
so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing:
 fear not, but let your hands be strong.’
 Zechariah 8:13

Suggested Further Reading: 
Romans 11:13–24

In the dark ages, to be a Jew was to be deserving of all scorn and cruelty, and of no pity or consideration. 

To what exactions, to what fines, to what imprisonments and tortures, have not the sons of Jacob been subjected by the professed followers of the Messiah? It is perhaps the greatest of all modern miracles, that there should be one Jew upon earth who is a Christian, for the treatment they have received from pretended Christians has been enough to make them hate the name of Jesus; it has not been simply villainous, but diabolical. 

Devils in hell could not be more cruel to their victims than professed Christians have been to the sons of Abraham. 
They have been a curse indeed.

 Among all nations they have been a hissing and a byword.
 But the day is coming, and is dawning already, when the whole world shall discern the true dignity of the chosen seed, and shall seek their company, because the Lord has blessed them. 

In that day when Israel shall look upon him whom they have pierced, and shall mourn for their sins, the Jew shall take his true rank among the nations as an elder brother and a prince.

 The covenant made with Abraham, to bless all nations by his seed, is not revoked; heaven and earth shall pass away, but the chosen nation shall not be blotted out from the book of remembrance. 

The Lord has not cast away his people; he has never given their mother a bill of divorcement; he has never put them away; in a little wrath he has hidden his face from them, but with great mercies will he gather them.

For meditation: 

We should thank God for the Jews; through them he gave us his Word (Romans 3:2; 9:4) and his Son (Romans 9:5); 
he still has blessings to give to the world through them (Romans 11:12). 
If you blame them for Christ’s death, remember that he died for sinners, and that you, as a sinner, were also responsible.
