Concerning 'THE GOSPEL' - JESUS CHRIST
"DRINK ABUNDANTLY"
Song of Solomon 5:1
Thoughts are turned to the Lord's Day tomorrow. It is Saturday evening, and the thoughts of God's own are on the meeting together to drink of our blessed Savior. He invites us for He finds great satisfaction in us. His thoughts also are on the gathering of the redeemed of the Lord. So He says, "Yea, drink abundantly, 0 beloved." We are the peculiar objects of His electing, saving love.
How shall we hear as we congregate? Why, if we are His, then He comes to meet with us. "I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse." We not only drink of Him, but we eat. "Eat, 0 friends." There is only ONE food and drink. "He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him" (John 6:56).
What a loving invitation! To know Him is to be eager to assemble and sing and pray and hear Him speak. Yes, I do anticipate the public worship tomorrow. Many years ago, before grace came, the question was, "Are we going to church?" Now the question is, "Why is it so far off?" oh, the joy of seeing the saints and to hear Him say, "Eat, 0 friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved."
