For The Labored & Heavy Laden

”In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion. Deliver me in thy righteousness, and cause me to escape: incline thine ear unto me, and save me. Be thou my strong habitation, whereunto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress.” | Psalm 71: 1-3

That wrath, that great wrath, that fierce wrath, that pure wrath, that infinite wrath, that matchless wrath of an angry God, that was so terribly impressed upon the soul of Christ, quickly spent his natural strength, and turned his moisture into the drought of summer. “For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: my moisture is turned into the drought of summer.” (Psalm 32: 4)

And yet all this wrath he patiently underwent, that sinners might be saved, and that ‘he might bring many sons unto glory,’

“For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.” (Hebrews 2: 10)

Oh wonder of love!

The Love Of Christ

“Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins,” | 1 John 4: 10

The Love Of Christ is the bond which holds the different stones together in the temple of God.

The Love of Christ is the fence which keeps away from us the wolves of division and discord.

The Love of Christ is the musical score which enables all of the different voices and instruments to play and sing in harmony for His glory.

The Love of Christ is the cloak which covers a multitude of infirmities, faults, and failures and enables us to, “forgive one another even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven us.”

True Profession

“My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue, but in deed and in truth.” | 1 John 3: 18

The thing that troubles me most about the validity of our profession of Christ is that we talk, preach, and sing of love, mercy, and forgiveness.

But then, when the opportunity comes for us to love the unlovely, forgive the offender, and bind up the wounded heart, we join the circle of Pharisees, clutching our stones, ready to wound and maim.

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” (Galatians 5: 22-23)

A profession that does not produce is a false profession.
