What Would He Find?
|
Christ's return can be viewed by believers in at least two ways. A. B. Simpson says, "There is a looking FOR it and a looking AT it. We may regard it with a keen intellectual interest and yet have it mean nothing to us personally. On the other hand, we may know little about the theology of the subject and still feel a deep longing for the Lord's appearing. Let me illustrate. When a wedding occurs, the public looks AT it, but the bride has been looking FOR it. May the theme of the return of Christ not only be our study, but also our personal hope, "for unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin unto salvation."
|
An unknown poet has written:
|
What would He find, should He come just now;
A faded leaf or a fruitless bough;
A servant sleeping, an idle plow;
What would He find should He come just now?
What would He find should He come tonight,
Your garment soiled or a spotless white:
Your lamps all burning or with no light;
What would He find should He come tonight?
|
Do you know of someone who is fruitless and idle with garments soiled by sin? Remind them of Romans 14:1-12, "For it is written, "AS I LIVE, SAYS THE LORD, EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW TO ME, AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL GIVE PRAISE TO GOD, So then each of us shall give account of himself to God."
Encourage them to turn back to God.
