54. Matthew 10:23

Matthew 10:23
Listen from:
“M. B.,” Cheltenham. Matthew 10:2323But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come. (Matthew 10:23) refers to the testimony to the cities of Israel, which began in the days of our Lord, is now suspended, and will be resumed at the time of the end. 1 Corinthians 5:55To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. (1 Corinthians 5:5), sets before us the solemn result which was to be reached by excommunication from God’s assembly. God ruled in the assembly. Satan ruled outside. 1 Peter 3:1919By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; (1 Peter 3:19), teaches us that the Spirit of Christ, in Noah, went and preached to those whose spirits are now in prison, because they refused the testimony.
