Learning in Christ’s School, April 5
What man is he that feareth the Lord? him shall he teach in the way
that he shall choose.
Psalm 25:12
.
Jesus has opened a school for the education and training of His chosen
ones, and they are ever to be learning to practice the lessons that He gives
them, in order that they may know Him fully.
Those who think they are very nearly good enough, and do not work
diligently for the perfection of Christian character, will set up idols in
their hearts, and will continue to practice sinful habits until sin will no
longer appear sinful....
Jesus offers Himself to every sin-sick soul, to every soul who is strug-
gling to overcome. The Holy Spirit is making intercession for every
sincere wrestler, and Christ will make His words to be spirit and life, the
power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth. But you will
certainly fail if you permit the devil to control your mind, to guide your
imaginings.... God will not be trifled with; He will not accept a divided
heart. He claims entire, wholehearted service. He has paid the ransom
money of His own life for every son and daughter of Adam....
Christ has a claim upon every soul; but many choose a life of sin.
Some will not come unto Jesus that He may give them life. Some say,
“I go, sir,” to His invitation; but they do not go; they do not make an
entire surrender to abide in Jesus alone, which is life and peace and joy
unspeakable, and full of glory.... Will you not rise to be wise and to make
diligent work for eternity? Seek the grace of Christ with the whole heart,
might, mind, and strength....
God has given you a right to take hold of Him through the prayer of
faith. Believing prayer is the very essence of pure religion, the secret of
power with every Christian....
Take time to pray, to search the Scriptures, to put self under discipline
to Jesus Christ. Live in contact with the living Christ, and as soon as you
do this, He will take hold of you and hold you firmly by a strong hand
that will never let go.
