“6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the
Father except through me.” John 14:6
Dear
Saints,
Today
we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Ezekiel Chapter 47;
“- These waters signify the gospel of Christ, which went forth from
Jerusalem, and spread into the countries about; also the gifts and powers of
the Holy Ghost which accompanied it, by virtue of which is spread far, and
produced blessed effects. Christ is the Temple; and he is the Door; from him
the living waters flow, out of his pierced side. They are increasing waters.
Observe the progress of the gospel in the world, and the process of the work
of grace in the heart; attend the motions of the blessed Spirit under Divine
guidance. If we search into the things of God, we find some things plain and
easy to be understood, as the waters that were but to the ankles; others more
difficult, which require a deeper search, as the waters to the knees, or the
loins; and some quite beyond our reach, which we cannot penetrate; but must,
as St. Paul did, adore the depth, (Romans 11 )
. It is wisdom to begin with that which is most easy, before we proceed to
that which is dark and hard to be understood. The promises of the sacred
word, and the privileges of believers, as shed abroad in their souls by the
quickening Spirit, abound where the gospel is preached; they nourish and
delight the souls of men; they never fade nor wither, nor are exhausted. Even
the leaves serve as medicines to the soul: the warnings and reproofs of the
word, though less pleasant than Divine consolations, tend to heal the
diseases of the soul. All who believe in Christ, and are united to him by his
sanctifying Spirit, will share the privileges of Israelites. There is room in
the church, and in heaven, for all who seek the blessings of that new
covenant of which Christ is Mediator.“ - Matthew Henry Concise.
Remember where we came from; we did not know about Christ (see Ephesians
2:12) were living in this
world without hope and without salvation. Through faith in Jesus
we have been saved; “19 So then you are no longer strangers
and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the
household of God,” Ephesians 2:19 ESV. Saints remember without
Jesus there is no city that lasts forever (see Hebrews
13:14) but by faith we are waiting
for that city.
