COME TO THE LORD JESUS!
Our
Lord often spoke of coming to Him. "Come
unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you
rest" [Matthew
11:28].
"In the last
day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If
any man thirst, let him come unto Me, and drink"
[John
7:37].
"All that the
Father giveth Me shall come to Me; and him that cometh to Me, I will
in no wise cast out" [John
6:37].
"No man can
come to Me except the Father which hath sent Me draw him" [John
6:40].
Are you guilty? Come to Him for a full and unconditional pardon. Are
you impure? Come to Him whose blood cleanses the foulest. Do you see
the worthlessness of your self-righteous rags?
Come to Him for
perfect righteousness and beauty. Are you ignorant? Come to Him to be
taught for He is the Wisdom of God. Are you cut off from God? Come to
Him for restoration. O that you would be brought by the Spirit of
grace to understand there is no life, no righteousness, no salvation,
no forgiveness and no acceptance for any sinner outside of the dear
Savior. Coming to Him is a movement of THE
SOUL, not the body; it
is believing on Him. COME
TO CHRIST, but don't
move a muscle (as in walking the aisle).
