THE VOICE OF THE SON OF GOD
By George Whitfield
Acts 22: 9
God is a sovereign agent; his sacred Spirit bloweth when and where it listeth; "he will have mercy on whom he will have mercy." Saul is taken, but, as far as we know to the contrary, his fellow-travelers are left to perish in their sins. They heard a voice, a confused noise, but not the articulate voice of him that spake to Saul, and therefore remained unconverted. Thus it is now under the word preached: many, like Saul's companions, are sometimes so struck with the outgoings of God appearing in the sanctuary, that they even stand speechless; they hear the preacher's voice, but not the voice of the Son of God, who, perhaps, at the same time is speaking effectually to many other hearts; this I have known often; and what shall we say to these things? O the depth of the sovereignty of God! It is past finding out. Lord, I desire to adore what I cannot comprehend. "Even so, Father, for so it seemeth good in thy sight!"
DO YOU BELIEVE ON CHRIST?
By John Owen
Of all that poison which at this day is diffused in the minds of men, corrupting them from the mystery of the Gospel, there is no part that is more pernicious than this one perverse imagination, that to believe in Christ is nothing at all but to believe the doctrine of the Gospel; which yet, we grant, is included therein. (John Owen, Christologia: A Declaration of the Glorious Mystery of the Person of Christ, Works, v. I, p. 127)
A GREAT BLESSING
When the apostle Paul thought of Timothy's faithfulness to Christ he thought of his grandmother and mother who believed the Lord and taught Timothy the scriptures. (2 Timothy 1: 5; 3:15.) When Napoleon was asked what his country needed most, to everyone's surprise he answered, "Faithful mothers!" What a great blessing to any child and to any nation!
THEN THE CLOUD
By Tommy Robbins
"Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle." Exodus 40:34-35.
The glory of the Lord God is that which distinguishes Him from all others and all else. It is said of Him in Holy Writ "Who is like unto Thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like Thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?" As there was no room for Moses in the tabernacle because it was filled with God's glory, there is no place for man or the works of the law in the gospel of God's grace or in the salvation of the elect. The glory and wonder of God's grace fills the Lord Jesus Christ - "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,)full of grace and truth" John 1:14. This simple guide to distinguish truth from error is perpetual and can never be wrong - ‘That which gives God and His Son all the glory is the truth and that which does not is a lie'. The message that is filled with Christ is full of the glory of God and there is no room for anything else. The message that enthrones man, his works and freewill leaves no room for Christ. Man is unable to enter into the glorious work of God in Christ. There is just no room! All the glorious virtues and attributes of God in Christ permeate every aspect of the purpose of God in the redemption of sinners. The Lord Jesus Christ is glorious, His righteousness is glorious, His sacrificial death is glorious, His accomplishment is glorious, and His position now as our Sovereign Great High Priest is glorious in Holiness. My friend, if you have a problem with the message that renders all the glory to God, your problem is with God and is far greater than you can imagine.
