Matthew 24:45-47; Luke 12:42-44
“Feed the church of God, which He has purchased with His own blood.” 1 Peter 5:2.
“Feed the flock of God which is among you.” Acts 20:28. And the church of God, or the flock of God is to increase with “the increase of God.” Wondrous language!
Let us watch, beloved, against the attempt of the enemy to corrupt the meat of the household. The unfoldings of John about the Son of God, and of Paul about the church of God, are meat in due season now; and we are not to attemper the food, stored up of God for His saints, to man’s taste or reasonings. The manna is to be gathered as it comes from heaven, and brought home to feed the traveling camp with angels’ food.
“I commend you to God, and to the Word of His grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.” (Acts 20:32).
