JESUS WILL NEVER CAST US OUT!


The Greek language is fond of using the ‘Double Negative’ (ou me) to emphasize the impossibility of a matter. It is an unequivocal way of saying ‘NEVER!’

We find this expression (ou me) among other places in JOHN 6:37, where Jesus promises to NEVER cast out the person who comes to Him. The King James Version translates it that He will in “No wise” cast such a person out. Literally it means “I will never cast out” or “I will by no means cast out” or emphatically, “I will not cast out.”
So, when will Jesus cast us out?
Never!
Is Jesus a liar?
No!
Does He make false statements?
No!
Then, WE ARE SAFE.

John Bunyan, in his “Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners” said of John 6:37, “Oh the comfort that I have had from this expression in no wise.” It seems that when Satan came to challenge him about his salvation, Bunyan used this verse to combat him. He goes on to say, “If ever Satan and I did strive for any word of God in all my life, it was for this good word of Christ, he (Satan) at one end, and I at the other. Oh, what work did we make… He pulled and I pulled, but God be praised I got the better of him.”

JESUS WILL NEVER CAST US OUT. We are the Father’s gift to Him [JOHN 6:37a]. Jesus is not careless with the gifts He has been given. He will not lose us. Rest in this. Dear believer, you are safe.

Some years ago, as a precious old, weary preacher lay on his deathbed he was suddenly overcome by an overwhelming sense of his own sinfulness. Out of the blue, he was filled with a terrible concern. His friend, another minister, tried to comfort him.
Leaning over him, the friend said, “You know, don’t you, that Jesus is a great Saviour!”
“Yes,” replied the terror-stricken preacher. “I know that He died to save. But how do I know that He died to save me?”
“His friend replied, It is written that ”him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out!”
“Yes, yes of course, that’s true!” exclaimed the astonished man who was as thrilled as a blind man whose eyes had just been abruptly opened. He then declared, “I am amazed that, though I have read that Scripture a thousand times over, I never felt its power and truth until this moment. Now I die happy!” And he did.

Jesus is the Physician who has never lost a patient. He’s the General who has never lost a battle. He’s the Lawyer who has never lost a case and He’s the Shepherd who has never lost a sheep.  Not one person in the lowest pit of hell will be able to say, "I trusted Christ, and I am lost.“

Jesus will never cast us out!

Bunyan, in his sermon, ‘Come and Welcome to Jesus Christ” gives more insight on our verse. He writes,
But I am a great sinner, sayest thou.
"I will in no wise cast out," says Christ.
But I am an old sinner, sayest thou.
"I will in no wise cast out," says Christ.
But I am a hard-hearted sinner, sayest thou.
"I will in no wise cast out," says Christ.
But I am a backsliding sinner, sayest thou.
"I will in no wise cast out," says Christ.
But I have sinned against light, sayest thou.
"I will in no wise cast out," says Christ.
But I have sinned against mercy, sayest thou.
"I will in no wise cast out," says Christ.
But I have no good thing to bring with me, sayest thou.
"I will in no wise cast out," says Christ.

When will Jesus cast us out?
Never!
Is Jesus a liar?
No!
Does He make false statements?
No!
Then, we are safe.

And that’s the Gospel Truth!

JESUS - Rock of Ages

Jesus remains the same in all ages. He is the One who is constant when everything and everyone else fails. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever; the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. He is our R ock [I SAMUEL 2:2 ] . In the Old Testament, in Exodus 33, Jesus is pictured as the Cleft Rock. In that chapter, verse 18 and following, Moses desired to see the glory of the Lord, but was told, "You cannot see My face; for there shall no man see My face and live.” And the Lord said, “There is a place by Me, and you shalt stand upon a rock: and it shall come to pass, while My glory passes by, that I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and will cover you with My hand while I pass by." Notice that as Moses stood upon the rock, the Lord hid him in the cleft. This wonderfully applies to us today! Believers are both standing on and hidden in Christ [COLOSSIANS 3:3 ] . We are both in and on the Rock. As life with its many bitter events presses upon us, ...

CHRIST OUR ONLY AND PERFECT RIGHTEOUSNESS

" The flesh lusteth against the Spirit." —Galatians 5:17 [KJV] Christian experience fully proves this apostolic truth. Hence the children of God cannot do the things that they would: nor have we any authority from God's word to conclude this lusting ever ceased in any of the saints till they got to glory; none are delivered from it while in the flesh. For, as the renewed soul or spirit loves to enjoy spiritual and heavenly objects, so the flesh, or unrenewed part, lusts after those objects it is naturally conversant with, and from which it derives its happiness.  Here is thy conflict, O Christian. Hence the necessity of thy Lord's command, "Watch always." This is the use of the doctrine. What woeful effects have fulfilling the lusts or desires of the flesh produced in eminent saints! Thou standest by faith, be not high-minded, but fear. The conceptions of lust are the productions of sin.— see James 1:15 . The commission of sin contracts fresh s...

GLORY ALONE IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST

" Lest Israel vaunt themselves against Me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me." -Judges 7:2 [KJV] Thus the Lord reasoned with Gideon. He knows what is in man. He sees the pride of the human heart: how prone we all are to boast in an arm of flesh. The Lord is jealous of His own glory. Gideon’s army of two and thirty thousand, is brought down to three hundred. By this handful of men, and no more, did Gideon gain the victory of the Midianites. The Lord’s wisdom in this was, “Lest Israel should vaunt themselves, and say, Mine own hand hath saved me.”   But I have not transcribed the text right. There are two little words of great import, which I have omitted. Mind then, O Christian— against Me. Now remember, whenever thou dost boast of thy power, thy free-will, thy human goodness, thy works, ditties, conditions, and performances in order to be saved, thou art then, as it were, two and thirty thousand strong. Thou vauntest thyself against the Lord . Thou art gloryi...
