TASTE THE SWEET GOODNESS OF SALVATION
Jesus Is Sweet
As I was looking at this orange, it reminded me of a sermon my
dear husband preached on about salvation. He said if I were
eating this orange, and you did not taste of it, you would have
no idea how juicy and sweet it tasted. Salvation is sweet; but
if you've never tasted it for yourself, you have no idea just
how sweet it can be.
II Corinthians 6:2, "For he saith, I have heard thee in a
time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured
thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day
of salvation."
Proverbs 27:1, "Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou
knowest not what a day may bring forth."
This is the scripture he used in the message, and it just all
came alive. He preaches dynamically and uses many things in
every day life to get a point of Biblical teachings across.
Just as Jesus gave all the parables, he uses these
illustrations to point sinners to Christ. So many in the pews
of our churches are lost and undone without Christ, and we must
reach them -- this is the great commission, go, go quickly! Compel them!
Luke 14:23, "And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into
the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my
house may be filled."
As you know, the lost world is not beating the doors down to
get into the church where they can hear the gospel; so as the saved
and called accordingly to His purpose, we need to be willing to
go out and bring them in. Amen.
