Here is distinguishing grace and yet not discriminating in regard, for all are made the special objects of divine affection. Do not be afraid to dwell upon this lofty doctrine of election. When your mind is heavy and depressed, you will find it to be a spiritual tonic. Man is dead in sin, and he is unable (stubbornly unwilling) to initiate a saving response to God. In light of this, God, from eternity past, mercifully made provision for the salvation of all.
Those who doubt the doctrines of grace or who throw them into the shadows miss the richest clusters of grapes; they lose the best wines, the choice food. Desire to have your mind enlarged, that you may comprehend more and more of the eternal, everlasting, unconditional love of God. When you have soared as high as election, linger on its twin peak, the covenant of grace.
There is no balm in Gilead comparable to it. If the honey in Jonathan’s wood when simply touched illumined the eyes, this is honey that will illumine your heart as you love and learn the mysteries of the kingdom of God. You must feed on this; live upon this choice provision, and do not be afraid that it will prove too delicate a diet. Meat from the King’s table will hurt none of His servants.
It’s a brand new day! Keep enjoying Kharis!
