Three Desires.

From: A Message From God: 1924

1. The young Ruler, Luke 18:18¹⁸And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? (Luke 18:18). Eternal Life Without the Cross.

2. Jebedee’s sons, Mark 10:35-37³⁵And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire. ³⁶And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you? ³⁷They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory. (Mark 10:35‑37). Kingdom glory without the Cross.

3. Paul. Philippians 3:7-10⁷But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. ⁸Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, ⁹And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: ¹⁰That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; (Philippians 3:7‑10) Christ and His Cross.

“The Father needed worshippers. The Son needed a bride and it was the joy of the Holy Spirit to come and seek and win both in this earth, uniting us to each One, in Himself.”

“The spirit’s marvelous grace in condescending to dwell in hearts like ours, brought into continued contact with sin.”

E. J. A. Pearson.
