Subject: The Meeting at the Last Day |
Bible Note: "Even as the apostle approved himself to his own conscience, so ministers and people under their care must meet one another before Christ's tribunal at the day of judgment. "In this present state it often happens that when ministers and people meet together and manage their ecclesiastical affairs, they are ready to judge and censure one another with regard to each other's views and designs, and are greatly mistaken in their judgment. But at that future meeting, things will be set in a true and perfect light. "In this world, ministers and people often meet together to hear of and wait upon an unseen Lord; but at the day of judgment they shall meet in His most immediate and visible presence. Ministers who now preach to their people the King, eternal, immortal, and invincible, to convince them that there is a God, and to convince them that He governs and will judge the world, shall meet their people in the presence of this great God, Savior and Judge. "The meeting at the last day of ministers and the people who have been under their care will not be attended by any one with a careless , heedless heart. With such a heart are their meetings often attended in this world, having little regard to Him whom they pretend unitedly to adore in the duties of public worship. But the meeting at that great day will be very different: there will not be one careless heart, no sleeping, no wandering of the mind, no inattentiveness, no regardlessness, of the presence they are in." --Jonathan Edwards |
