“Come Unto Me”
“Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28).
“Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink” (John 7:37).
The gospel is really quite simple. Sometimes we complicate it…but the invitation remains the same, “Come unto Me.” Are you labouring under the stress of sin and the burden of a bad conscience? Are you overwhelmed and seeking rest of heart and peace of soul? Do you have a spiritual thirst that you can’t seem to satisfy? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then the only thing to do is to hear and obey the words of the Lord Jesus who is lovingly saying to you, “Come unto Me.”
“Come” is one of the simplest words to understand. Every toddler knows what it means when their father holds out his hands and says, “Come.” Just so, the Lord Jesus is holding out those hands that were pierced on Calvary, and saying to every sinner, “Come.” The question is not whether we are invited, but whether we have responded and “come.”

Q. What does it mean when the Lord says to the church at Laodicea, “I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot” (Revelation 3:15)?
A. “Cold” would be those who were out and out giving up the truth and apostatizing. “Hot” would be those who were out and out for the Lord…on fire for Christ. John is really saying, if you are not a real believer it is better to be cold than just drifting along, and if you are real, don’t just drift along, be on fire and in the fervency of “first love” (Revelation 2:4).
Coming from Canada I appreciate a cup of good, hot tea, and many Americans like a glass of good, cold, iced tea. Both are refreshing. But there is nothing worse than “lukewarm” or “Laodicean” tea. The Lord goes on to say, “So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth” (Revelation 3:16). He will never spue a believer out of His mouth, but those who merely profess and pretend with no reality, are nauseous to Him, illustrated by “lukewarm” water. Worldliness and self-importance had caused a condition repulsive to the Lord.

Four Reigns
Death reigned from Adam to Moses:
“Death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of Him that was to come…For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:14,17).
The law reigned from Moses to Christ:
“Before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith” (Galatians 3:23-24).
Grace reigns in this age:
“As sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romans 5:21).
Righteousness will reign in the Millennium:
“Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness” (Isaiah 32:1).

Monthly Scripture Reading
Genesis 45
Then Joseph could not refrain himself before all them that stood by him; and he cried, Cause every man to go out from me. And there stood no man with him, while Joseph made himself known unto his brethren.
And he wept aloud: and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard.
And Joseph said unto his brethren, I am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence.
And Joseph said unto his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt.
Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life.
For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are five years, in the which there shall neither be earing nor harvest.
And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.

Self-Occupation
Self-occupation is a great mistake for the Christian. Of course, until a person learns that he is a sinner, he must be occupied with himself, so that he will cry, “God be merciful to me a sinner” (Luke 18:13), and find salvation and peace in turning to God. So, too, a Christian must be reminded of himself as long as he thinks there is anything good in him. But when he can say with Paul, “I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing,” (Romans 7:18), he is privileged to turn from himself to Christ to find his all in Him.
What a relief it is! Instead of thinking about my feelings, my attainments, my work, and my dignity — to live in the joy of the Lord and what He has done for us. And then let Him work in us that which is wellpleasing in His sight, in the desire that He may be glorified. This is what is meant by the words, “For me to live is Christ” (Philippians 1:21).
Are you thinking about yourself? Then you are in danger of being a Pharisee, or being miserable. Do you long to be happy, or holy? Turn to “Jesus the Author and Finisher of our faith.” (Hebrews 12:2). You will find in Him all your joy and everything you need for a holy Christian life.

Dear Young Christian:
“And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus…And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord” (Colossians 3:17,23).
What will you get accomplished this week?
Sometimes I start out with a list on Monday, and don’t always get it done by the end of the week. Often it is because of some circumstance that has hindered me, or sometimes it is neglect or forgetfulness, and once in awhile something more important comes up that needs immediate attention and so the list-item gets put off or shuffled to next week’s agenda.
However, there are some things we should have on our list, and never forget or neglect them; and never should something else seem more important. Things such as, reading the Bible; spending time in prayer; attending meetings for Bible study, prayer, and worship with fellow-believers; and serving the Lord and others as He gives opportunity. What is on your “to-do” list? Make sure, above all, that they are things that will please the Lord and bring glory to His name.

The Cross
“And they that passed by reviled Him, wagging their heads, And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save Thyself. If Thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross. Likewise also the chief priests mocking Him, with the scribes and elders, said, He saved others; Himself He cannot save” (Matthew 27:39-42).
Was Jesus the Son of God? Absolutely. No question about it. Could He have come down from the cross? Yes, He could have.
If He could have come down from the cross we might well ask ourselves, why didn’t He? The answer is simple and yet profound. Because His love for you and me was SO STRONG that it kept Him on the cross. If Jesus had come down from the cross there would be no blessing and no heaven for us. The Lord Jesus didn’t need to prove who He was by coming down from the cross. No, He proved who He was and proved His great love by staying there, by dying, shedding His blood, and rising from the dead after three days. What a Saviour! What love!

What Money Can Buy
Someone has well said, “Money is the universal provider of everything except happiness and the passport to everywhere except heaven.”
Money will buy:
A bed ……………….. but not sleep.
Books……………….  but not brains.
Food …………….  but not appetite.
Clothing ………….  but not beauty.
A house ………….  but not a home.
Medicine …………  but not health.
Luxuries ………….  but not culture.
Amusement ….  but not happiness.
A crucifix ……… but not a Saviour.
A church pew …..  but not heaven.
What money cannot buy, Jesus can give freely without charge. “He that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price” (Isaiah 55:1)

Something Fresh
“The times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord” (Acts 3:19).
John was a Christian man who loved the Lord and loved his Bible. He also loved to attend the weekly meetings for prayer, reading of the Word, and worship, at the meetinghouse in the village where he lived. One day he was stopped by an acquaintance, who was an avid fisherman. “I say, John,” said the fisherman, “I have often wondered what attraction there is up at that meetinghouse you so often attend? You go week after week to the same old place, see the same folks, and sing the same hymns.”
“Wait a minute,” interrupted John. “You fish very often at the same old spot, and in the same water, don’t you?”
“Yes that’s true,” agreed the other.
John smiled, and then exclaimed, “Well, you don’t, for the water you fished from yesterday has passed out to the sea, and fresh water has taken its place, and just the same, every time I go to the meetings the Lord has something fresh for me to enjoy.”

Minor Prophets — Joel
Joel gives us prophesies concerning a day when the rights of the Lord Jesus will be asserted, that which is referred to in the Bible as the Day of the Lord. “Alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come” (Joel 1:15). The judgments that Joel speaks of are judgments that take place both before and after the millennium, which is the thousand-year reign of Christ.
There is a solemn summons to repentance in view of the chastening hanging over them, and there will be a remnant who do respond and turn to the Lord. To such the Lord will bring deliverance and wonderful and complete kingdom blessings. There will be full restoration and a pouring out of His Spirit at that time. “And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and none else: and My people shall never be ashamed. And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions” (Joel 2:27-28). What a wonderful day of peace and blessing it will be for Israel.

His Perfect Ways — Part 2
When we get to heaven and we are with the Lord we shall fully understand and see clearly how all the threads of life were put together, to tell the story of the love of God toward us. Looking now on the wrong side of things, circumstances often seem mysterious and meaningless. But soon, in the presence of Christ, all will be made clear and plain, and the shadows will be turned into light and understanding, and then “shall I know even as also I am known” (1 Corinthians 13:12).
He is love, He has loved us, He is loving us, He will love us. In a coming day we will read clearly all that which tear-blurred eyes could not see now. Solomon, looking at things from earth’s viewpoint said, “That which is crooked cannot be made straight.” (Ecclesiastes 1:15). However, Isaiah looking on to a future day of glory and manifestation said, “And the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain.” (Isaiah 40:4).
How good it will be when we understand everything in the light of His purposes and ways with us, and see that everything in our lives was working out for a purpose of blessing.

His Perfect Way — Part 1
Standing before his audience, the preacher held up a text formed with silk threads on perforated cardboard. But he held the back of the text toward the people. To them, all that appeared of it was a tangled mass of various colored threads. No words could be made out. The stitches might have been made without reason, and to the onlookers they conveyed no message.
The preacher was showing how all God’s dealings with us are the outcome of His deepest care for our blessing and well-being; and that we cannot always see why it is we have to suffer and pass through certain things. “For now we see through a glass, darkly,” but soon we shall see “face to face” (1 Corinthians 13:12). Then it is that the dark places will be made plain, and then, up there, we’ll understand it all.
When the preacher turned the text toward his listeners they could read clearly, the words that had been formed with care and beauty:
GOD IS LOVE
Every thread had helped in the weaving of the message. Not one of them was unnecessary or out of place.

Dear Young Christian:
In the past weeks I have experienced some wonderful answers to prayer. Sometimes, perhaps we lose sight of the power of prayer and its effects. Prayer is a very real element of the Christian life. Of course, God, who knows what is best for us at all times, may not answer our prayers the way that we had hoped, but His answer is always the right one. That’s why, when we pray, it is good to ask that His will would be done for His glory. Like the Lord Jesus who said, “Nevertheless not My will, but Thine, be done” (Luke 22:42). Sometimes, He does, in His mercy and goodness raise up a loved one who is sick, or change the weather, or intervene in some circumstance, but not always. If not it is because of some need on our part, and some lesson He is seeking to teach us.
We never want to forget to thank and praise Him for all His answers, whether it was the answer we wanted or not. “In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you” (1 Thessalonians 5:18).

Man of Sorrows
“He loved them unto the end” (John 13:1).
I adore the love that led Him to be made sin for me. There was the full testing of the love that carried Him through all. It is deeply instructive, though very dreadful to see there what man is and how his heart was fully exposed at the trial and crucifixion of the Lord Jesus. What do I expect of my friends if I am on trial? At least that they will not forsake me. “They all forsook Him, and fled” (Mark 14:50). In a judge? I expect him to protect innocence. Pilate washes his hands of His blood, and gives Him over to the people! In a priest? That he will intercede for the ignorant and for them that are out of the way. Instead, they urge the people, who cry, “Away with Him, away with Him” (John 19:15). Every man was the opposite of what was right, and that one Man was not only right, but in divine love He was going through it all!
Nothing could stop that love. Nothing! “Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it” (Song of Solomon 8:7). Love divine! Wonderful love! May we never forget it!

Feed on God’s Word — Part 3
The Manna in the Old Testament is a picture of the Man Jesus Christ. In John chapter 6 the Lord taught His disciples to feed on Himself, the Heavenly Manna. He said, “I am that bread of life. Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead…This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live forever” (John 6:48-49,58).
If we want to be healthy, happy, fruitful Christians, with proper spiritual growth, we need to feed on Christ, and the way we feed on Christ is through the Word of God.
When we eat something we take it into our system and it becomes part of us. This is true of the Scriptures. When we read it, meditate on it, and digest the truth of it, we receive eternal benefit. Then we will be able to “Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). The Manna sustained the Israelites for the whole forty years that they were in the wilderness, and the Word of God is sufficient to feed us with Christ for our whole life as long as we are here in this wilderness world.

Feed on God’s Word — Part 2
The children of Israel, in Exodus 16, were instructed to gather the manna they needed every day. The manna they needed today was not the manna they needed tomorrow. They needed it fresh EVERY DAY! If they kept it over (except on the Sabbath) it went bad and could not be eaten. “Some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank” (Exodus 16:20).
The lesson we learn from this illustration is that we need a fresh portion of Scripture every day. Leftovers from the fridge may be good for a day or two, but it does not work that way when it comes to the Word of God. Not that we shouldn’t go back over what we have read and enjoyed in the past, but we also need fresh, daily, spiritual food. Job said, “Neither have I gone back from the commandment of His lips; I have esteemed the words of His mouth more than my necessary food” (Job 23:12).
We take good care to eat two or three good meals a day, and often a snack in between, but do we take as good care of the spiritual man as we do of our natural, physical being?

Feed on God’s Word — Part 1
Do you ever just sit and read the Bible because you enjoy the Word of God? I don’t mean do you read it simply because you feel obligated to read a chapter or certain portion every day, but do you read it because it is your joy and delight, and because you have a hunger for the “Bread of heaven”?(Psalm 105:40). The Prophet Jeremiah said, “Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and Thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart” (Jeremiah 15:16).
Constant, consistent, and orderly reading of Scripture will create an appetite, and will feed the soul, so that the result will be growth and maturity in your spiritual life, and a greater understanding and appreciation for divine things. There is no other way to “Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). When I was growing up we often sang the chorus:
Feed on God’s Word in the morning,
Feed on God’s Word at noon.
Feed on God’s Word in the evening,
To keep your heart in tune.

All Scripture
“All Scripture is…profitable” (2 Timothy 3:16).
Not just some Scripture, and not just the New Testament, but “all Scripture.” Not just the portions we think we understand, but “all Scripture.” Not just our favorite chapters and the verses that we like the best, but “all Scripture.”
We need to read all the Word of God. Even those difficult passages. The rest of the verse tells us why. Most importantly it is “given by inspiration of God.” It is God speaking directly to us. Then too we learn what it is profitable for…“doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.”
The next verse tells us what the result will be. “That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works” (Verse 17).
If you want to be instructed in the ways of the Lord and be a useful Christian, you must avail yourself of “all Scripture.” Read, study, meditate, and put into practice, “all Scripture,” and you will have much profit and blessing in your life.

Dear Young Christian:
Let me pass on something I read the other day, which was written by an older brother in Christ years ago, but still has value today.
“Nothing counts but CHRIST! All else is without value. All else will eventually perish. The knowledge of God revealed in His person and communion with Him is what will satisfy the soul here, and never pass away. True service to His name, and faithful following of Him will truly ‘count’ when we get to heaven.”
It makes me think of the statement penned by the Apostle Paul, who said, “Christ is all, and in all” (Colossians 3:11). He also said, “For to me to live is Christ” (Philippians 1:21).
In light of this let’s really seek to have CHRIST much before us this week. That’s what really matters.

The Cost
“Now is My soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save Me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour” (John 12:27).
Here we see the manhood of the Lord Jesus. As a man Jesus would say, “Father, save Me.” As God He would say, “But that’s why I came. I must go through with this. I am the only one who can pay the immense cost for sin.” And so He did. He paid it all in full on Calvary’s cross. Our salvation cost Jesus EVERYTHING.
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it” (Matthew 13:45-46). The Lord Jesus was the Merchant Man. He sold all that He had in order that we might be eternally blessed.
The Psalmist asked, “What shall I render unto the Lord for all His benefits toward me?” (Psalm 116:12). He wants the return of our hearts in praise, worship and thanksgiving. Will you give Him that joy today?

The Book of Results
“The Revelation of Jesus Christ” (Revelation 1:1).
The Revelation may truly be called the book of results. In it, though Christ’s faithfulness to His own abides, declension characterizes the churches. Sin receives its eternal wages. The lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life are seen in full bloom, and pass away forever. False religion is judged, its blazing glory extinguished, and the smoke of the torment of the unchaste woman rises up forever and ever. Man living in rebellion is crushed under the feet of Jesus, and the dead are banished from His presence forever. The Antichrist and his associates meet their just and most terrible abasement and misery. Satan is everlastingly consigned to the lake of fire. The created heavens and earth are cleared of evil, and Christ’s power fully known, His worth fully owned. The church is seen in glory, in uncreated light and beauty, and the new heavens and the new earth speak to us only of righteousness and blessing from God to man. It is emphatically a book of judgment on things on earth, although prophetic in its character.

Authority
Some time ago I was driving through the city of Chicago, Illinois when I noticed a bumper sticker on the car in front of me. It said:
“Abolish Authority!”
How shocking! Imagine if there were no authority. No laws, no government, no police, no order or discipline of any kind. The Bible says, “For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good” (Romans 13:3-4).
God has set up various levels of authority for the good and blessing of mankind here on planet Earth. We are responsible to recognize that authority and submit to it in the fear of the Lord, who, of course, is the supreme authority. In fact the only time we are justified in not submitting to earthly authority (which includes authority in the family circle) is when it violates the Lord’s authority and the authority of the Word of God. Then, and only then can we say, “We ought to obey God rather than men” (Acts 5:29).

Three Testimonies
Psalm 19 reveals three ways God speaks to us.
1. Through the sky and its glittering array of celestial orbs. “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth His handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard” (Verses 1-3).
2. Through the Scriptures and its timeless truth. “The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure….The fear of the Lord is clean…the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether” (Verses 7-9).
3. Through other believers and their godly testimony. “Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer” (Verses 14).
This is a testimony of His grace! Each declaration gets more personal and intimate. The first two witnesses are faithful, consistent and constant — are YOU?

Rainy Day
“I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause: Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number: Who giveth rain upon the earth” (Job 5:8-10).
I sat still, on a rainy day,
With extra time to read and pray;
And time to meditate awhile,
Within the sunshine of Christ’s smile:
And what a blessing — bright the day,
Although the sky was dark and grey,
And though the clouds were thick and black,
My heart was light, I did not lack
For joy and happiness all day,
Because I stopped to read and pray.
So don’t despise a rainy day,
Take extra time to read and pray!
“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24

Dear Young Christian:
We are marching forward, and getting into the second month of 2015. Wow! I still remember when the 21st Century began, and we hung up the 2000 calendars. There was a lot of hype, a lot of speculation and excitement, as well as a good deal of trepidation and even fear as to what would happen with our computers and electronic devices.
As for me, I was sure we were about to experience the Lord’s coming, and here we are fifteen years later, and it hasn’t happened yet. But that doesn’t mean that the promise has failed. No indeed, the Bible plainly states: “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to usward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). He is waiting for more people to be saved, and we can be thankful for that.
And remember, this might be the week, or even the day, when this promise becomes a reality.

The Garden
“Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid. There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews’ preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand” (John 19:41-42).
The last time Jesus was in a garden it was a time of intense mental suffering and agony, in the garden of Gethsemane. “Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. And He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy” (Matthew 26:36).
In these verses we see Him in a garden of rest. All is over now. Judgment is done, the price of sin is paid for. The Lord’s body was laid to rest by loving hands. Is this it? For the disciples it was. But through the Word we know that it was not. Something wonderful and very marvellous was about to take place. The power of death was about to be broken, Jesus was about to rise from the dead. What a triumph! What a Saviour! Praise and worship Him again today!
