Come to Christ

 

These are the words of Jesus Christ when He appeared to His servant John,

“I counsel thee, buy of Me,” – Revelation 3:18

There is no place where truth can be found in its power and life, except in Jesus Christ. Truth is in His blood; it will wash away what is false in you. Truth is in His Spirit; it will eradicate what is dark and vile in you. His love will make you true by conforming you to Himself. Come to Christ. Bring nothing with you. Come as you are, empty-handed, penniless, and poor. The rills of milk and wells of wine are all with Him. He is the banquet-giver, and the banquet too. To trust Him is to live. To look to Him alone for salvation is to find salvation in that look. Oh! that these simple words might point someone to the place where he shall buy the truth!

Oh! that you were decided for God! …If the gospel does not save you, it will certainly be a curse to you, and I am afraid it is being so to some of you…Do you not hear the knock of the hand that was pierced? Admit Him! He comes not in wrath; He comes in mercy. Admit Him! He has tarried long, even these many years, but no frown is yet upon His brow. Rise now and let Him in. Be not ashamed. Though ashamed, be not afraid, but let Him in, and blushing, with tears in your face, say to Him, “My Lord, I will trust Thee; worthless worm as I am, I will depend upon Thee.” Oh! that you would do it now, this moment! The Lord give you grace to do it! ~ C.H. Spurgeon
