Come and welcome
“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come.
And let him that heareth say, Come.
And let him that is athirst come.
And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.”
And let him that heareth say, Come.
And let him that is athirst come.
And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.”
Revelation 22:17
Suggested Further Reading:
John 6:35-40
How wide is this invitation!
There are some ministers who are afraid to invite sinners,
then why are they ministers? They are afraid to perform the most important part of the sacred office.
There was a time I must confess when I somewhat faltered when about to give a free invitation. My doctrinal sentiments did at that time somewhat hamper me.
I boldly confess that I am unchanged as to the doctrines I have preached; I preach Calvinism as high, as stern, and as sound as ever; but I do feel, and always did feel an anxiety to invite sinners to Christ.
And I do feel also, that not only is such a course consistent with the soundest doctrines, but that the other course is after all the unsound one, and has no title whatever to plead Scripture on its behalf.
There has grown up in many churches an idea that none are to be called to Christ but what they call sensible sinners.
I sometimes rebut that by remarking, that I call stupid sinners to Christ as well as sensible sinners, and that stupid sinners make by far the greatest proportion of the ungodly.
But I glory in the confession that I preach Christ even to insensible sinners—that I would say even to the dry bones of the valley, as Ezekiel did, “Ye dry bones live!” doing it as an act of faith; not faith in the power of those that hear to obey the command, but faith in the power of God who gives the command to give strength also to those addressed, that they may be constrained to obey it.
But now listen to my text; for here, at least,
there is no limitation. But sensible or insensible, all that the text saith is, “Whosoever will, let him come and take the water of life freely.”
The one question I have to ask this morning is, art thou willing?
For meditation:
Jesus gladly received children and their carers; he rebuked his own disciples, some of God’s children, who tried to get in the way (Mark 10:13-16). Are we helping or hindering others who need to come to Christ?
