"Babes in Christ."




"Babes in Christ."
1 Corinthians 3:1.

Are you mourning, believer, because you are so weak in the divine life: because your faith is so little, your love so feeble? Cheer up, for you have cause for gratitude.

 Remember that in some things you are equal to the greatest and most full-grown Christian. You are as much bought with blood as he is. 

You are as much an adopted child of God as any other believer. An infant is as truly a child of its parents as is the full-grown man. 

You are as completely justified, for your justification is not a thing of degrees: your little faith has made you clean every whit. 

You have as much right to the precious things of the covenant as the most advanced believers, for your right to covenant mercies lies not in your growth, but in the covenant itself; and your faith in Jesus is not the measure, but the token of your inheritance in Him.

 You are as rich as the richest, if not in enjoyment, yet in real possession. 
The smallest star that gleams is set in heaven; the faintest ray of light has affinity with the great orb of day. 

In the family register of glory the small and the great are written with the same pen. 
You are as dear to your Father's heart as the greatest in the family. 

Jesus is very tender over you. 
You are like the smoking flax; a rougher spirit would say, "put out that smoking flax, it fills the room with an offensive odour!" but the smoking flax He will not quench.

 You are like a bruised reed; and any less tender hand than that of the Chief Musician would tread upon you or throw you away, but He will never break the bruised reed.

 Instead of being downcast by reason of what you are, you should triumph in Christ. 
Am I but little in Israel? Yet in Christ I am made to sit in heavenly places. 
Am I poor in faith? Still in Jesus I am heir of all things. 

Though "less than nothing I can boast, and vanity confess."
 yet, if the root of the matter be in me I will rejoice in the Lord, and glory in the God of my salvation.

Forward! Forward! Forward!




Forward! Forward! Forward!



‘And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward.’ Exodus 14:15



Suggested Further Reading: Matthew 28:16–20


How often I have heard people say, ‘Well, yes, the Lord is my gracious Master, and I am his servant, and I believe it is the duty of believers to be baptised; but if the Lord ever reveals it to me,
then I will do it.’

There is a soldier for you! He is not content to get the same orders as his fellow-soldiers, but he cries, ‘When the regiment is on the march, if the captain will come round to my tent and talk to me by myself, I will not mind going.’

Why, he deserves to be flogged for a deserter. I will not wish anything hard to my Christian brother, but I do venture to prophesy that he will be beaten with many stripes if he talks in that way. ‘Ah,’ says one, ‘but the Lord must apply it to me.’

What for? The thing is clear enough without its being applied. If there is anything in the Bible which is plain at all, it is that he who believes in Christ should be buried with him in baptism. Then, if it is your clear duty, you ought to do it at once.

‘Well, I will pray about it.’
And do you believe God will hear such a wicked prayer as that? If I tell my child that there is something to do, and he tells me, ‘Well, I will think about it,’ I shall let him know that I am not to be thus impudently trifled with.

If I say to him, ‘Now, my child, do so-and-so,’ and he replies, ‘Father, I will pray about it,’ I shall not put up with such hypocritical rebellion; it will not do in one’s own house, much less in the house of God.

Are you to be permitted to trifle with positive precepts, and then to lay your sin upon God’s back? I do not think so.

For meditation: 

There are no loopholes in the command ‘Repent and be baptized every one of you’ (Acts 2:38). 
The first step of repentance and faith is essential to salvation (Mark 16:16); the second step of baptism is essential to obedience.

Sermon no. 548
18 October (1863)

he thought of David's heart





"And David said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul."
1 Samuel 27:1.


The thought of David's heart at this time was a false thought, because he certainly had no ground for thinking that God's anointing him by Samuel was intended to be left as an empty unmeaning act.

 On no one occasion had the Lord deserted His servant; he had been placed in perilous positions very often, but not one instance had occurred in which divine interposition had not delivered him.

The trials to which he had been exposed had been varied; they had not assumed one form only, but many—yet in every case He who sent the trial had also graciously ordained a way of escape. 

David could not put his finger upon any entry in his diary, and say of it, "Here is evidence that the Lord will forsake me," for the entire tenor of his past life proved the very reverse. 

He should have argued from what God had done for him, that God would be his defender still.

 But is it not just in the same way that we doubt God's help? Is it not mistrust without a cause? Have we ever had the shadow of a reason to doubt our Father's goodness? Have not His lovingkindnesses been marvellous? Has He once failed to justify our trust? Ah, no! our God has not left us at any time. 

We have had dark nights, but the star of love has shone forth amid the blackness; we have been in stern conflicts, but over our head He has held aloft the shield of our defence. 

We have gone through many trials, but never to our detriment, always to our advantage; and the conclusion from our past experience is, that He who has been with us in six troubles, will not forsake us in the seventh. 

What we have known of our faithful God, proves that He will keep us to the end. Let us not, then, reason contrary to evidence. 

How can we ever be so ungenerous as to doubt our God? Lord, throw down the Jezebel of our unbelief, and let the dogs devour it.
