We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

I would like to buy three dollars worth of God, please. Not enough to explode my soul or disturb my sleep, but just enough of Him to equal a cup of warm milk or a snooze in the sunshine. I don't want enough of Him to make me love a black man or pick beets with a migrant. I want ecstasy, not transformation. I want the warmth of the womb, not a new birth. I want a pound of the Eternal in a paper sack, please. I would like to buy three dollars worth of God, please (Wilbur Reese).

XXI. Persuasives to Christ.

MATT. xi. 27, 28.
” All things are delivered unto Me of My Father : and no man
knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knowetlt any man
the Father; save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will
reveal Him. Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy
laden, and I will give you rest.”

THE way to be saved is to come to Jesus. I seek to press
this invitation by the arguments which the Saviour used.
I. The reason why you are solemnly bidden to come to
Christ is because He is the appointed Mediator. “All
things are delivered unto Me of My Father.”
II. Christ is a well-furnished Mediator. All things are
delivered.
III. Christ is an inconceivably great Mediator; so great
that no one but an infinite God knows Him.
IV. He is an infinitely wise Saviour. He understands
both persons on whose behalf He mediates—God and you.
V. He is an indispensable Mediator—the only Mediator.
“No man knoweth the Father save the Son.”
C. H. Spurgeon.
