A home mission sermon



A home mission sermon

“Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest” 
Ecclesiastes 9:10

Suggested Further Reading: 
Luke 22:24-27

George Washington, the commander-in-chief, was going around among his soldiers. They were hard at work, lifting a heavy piece of timber at some fortification. 
There stood the corporal of the regiment calling out to his men, “Heave there, heave ahoy!” and giving them all kinds of directions. As large as possible the good corporal was.

 So Washington, alighting from his horse, said to him, “What is the good of your calling out to those men, why don’t you help them yourself and do part of the work.”

 The corporal drew himself up and said, “Perhaps you are not aware to whom you are speaking, sir; I am a corporal.” 
“I beg your pardon,” said Washington; “you are a corporal are you; I am sorry I should have insulted you.”

 So he took off his own coat and waistcoat and set to work to help the men build the fortification. When he had done he said, “Mr Corporal, I am sorry I insulted you, but when you have any more fortifications to get up, and your men won’t help you, send for George Washington, the commander-in-chief, and I will come and help them.” 

The corporal slunk away perfectly ashamed of himself. And so Christ Jesus might say to us, “Oh, you don’t like teaching the poor; it is beneath your dignity; then let your commander-in-chief do it; he can teach the poor, he can wash the feet of the saints, he can visit the sick and afflicted—he came down from heaven to do this, and he will set you the example.” 

Surely we should each be ashamed of ourselves, and declare from this time forward whatever it is, be it great or little, if it comes to our hand, and if God will but give us help and give us grace, we will do it with all our might.

For meditation: 

Our Master knew how to be humble (Philippians 2:6-9); he also knows how to deal with people who are proud or humble (1 Peter 5:5-6).

The desire of the soul in spiritual darkness



The desire of the soul in spiritual darkness

“With my soul have I desired thee in the night.” 
Isaiah 26:9

Suggested Further Reading: 
Psalm 42

There are times when all the saints can do is to desire.
 We have a vast number of evidences of piety: some are practical, some are experimental, some are doctrinal; and the more evidences a man has of his piety the better, of course.

 We like a number of signatures, to make a deed more valid, if possible. 
We like to invest property in a great number of trustees, in order that it may be all the safer; and so we love to have many evidences. 

Many witnesses will carry our case in the courts better than a few: and so it is well to have many witnesses to testify to our piety. But there are seasons when a Christian cannot get any. 

He can get scarcely one witness to come and attest his godliness. 
He asks for good works to come and speak for him. 
But there will be such a cloud of darkness about him, and his good works will appear so black that he will not dare to think of their evidences. 

He will say, “True, I hope this is the right fruit; I hope I have served God; but I dare not plead these works as evidences.” 
He will have lost assurance, and with it his enjoyment of communion with God. 

“I have had that fellowship with him,” perhaps he will say, and he will summon that communion to come and be in evidence. 
But he has forgotten it, and it does not come, and Satan whispers it is a fancy, and the poor evidence of communion has its mouth gagged, so that it cannot speak. 

But there is one witness that very seldom is gagged, and one that I trust the people of God can always apply, even in the night: and that is, “I have desired thee—I have desired thee in the night.”

For meditation: 

The light shines best in the darkness (John 1:5); the people of God have proved it when all else has failed them 
(Psalm 73:21-26; Jonah 2:1-7).

Religion—a reality



Religion—a reality

‘For it is not a vain thing for you, because it is your life.’ Deuteronomy 32:47

Suggested Further Reading: 
1 Corinthians 3:18–23

Where is the folly of true religion? Is it a folly to be providing for the world to come? ‘Oh, no.’ Is it a folly to make the Author of your being its first end? ‘No, no.’

 Is it altogether a folly to believe that there is such a thing as justice? I think not. And that, if there be such a thing as justice, it involves punishment? There is no great folly there. 

Well, then, is it any folly to perceive that there is no way of escaping from the effects of our offences except justice be satisfied? Is that folly? And if it be the fact that Christ has satisfied justice for all who trust in him, is it folly to trust him? If it be a folly to escape from the flames of hell, then let us be fools. If it be folly to lay hold of him who gives us eternal life—oh, blessed folly! Let us be more foolish still. 

Let us take deep dives into the depths of this foolishness. 
God forbid that we should do anything else but glory in being such fools as this for Christ’s sake! What, sirs, is your wisdom? Your wisdom dwells in denying what your eyes can see—a God; in denying what your consciences tell you—that you are guilty; in denying what should be your best hope, what your spirit really craves after—redemption in Christ Jesus. 

Your folly lies in following a perverted nature, instead of obeying the dictates of one who points you to the right path. You are wise and you drink poison; we are fools and we take the antidote. You are wise and you hunt the shadow; we are fools and we grasp the substance. 

You are wise, and you labour and put your money into a bag which is full of holes, and spend it for that which is not bread, and which never gives you satisfaction; and we are fools enough to be satisfied, to be happy, to be perfectly content with heaven and God.

For meditation: 

Better to become a fool in the world’s eyes for Christ’s sake 
(1 Corinthians 3:18; 4:10) than to remain a fool in God’s eyes for the world’s sake (Luke 12:19–20; 1 Corinthians 3:19). 
Which kind of fool are you?
