“His first coming was without external pomp or show of power, and yet in truth there were few who could abide its testing might. Herod and all Jerusalem with him were stirred at the news of the wondrous birth. Those who supposed themselves to be waiting for him, showed the fallacy of their professions by rejecting him when he came. His life on earth was a winnowing fan, which tried the great heap of religious profession, and few enough could abide the process. But what will his second advent be? What sinner can endure to think of it? “He shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.” When in his humiliation he did but say to the soldiers, “I am he,” they fell backward; what will be the terror of his enemies when he shall more fully reveal himself as the “I am?” His death shook earth and darkened heaven, what shall be the dreadful splendour of that day in which as the living Saviour, he shall summon the quick and dead before him? O that the terrors of the Lord would persuade men to forsake their sins and kiss the Son lest he be angry! Though a lamb, he is yet the lion of the tribe of Judah, rending the prey in pieces; and though he breaks not the bruised reed, yet will he break his enemies with a rod of iron, and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel. None of his foes shall bear up before the tempest of his wrath, or hide themselves from the sweeping hail of his indignation; but his beloved blood washed people look for his appearing with joy, and hope to abide it without fear: to them he sits as a refiner even now, and when he has tried them they shall come forth as gold. Let us search ourselves this morning and make our calling and election sure, so that the coming of the Lord may cause no dark forebodings in our mind. O for grace to cast away all hypocrisy, and to be found of him sincere and without rebuke in the day of his appearing.” -Spurgeon

It's far more rewarding to live before the eyes of One who sees deep into my heart than one who only sees the outside. - Joshua Hawkins

Prayer is the open admission that without Christ we can do nothing. (John 15:5) -Joshua Hawkins

I don't think we grasp at all how much fun the age to come is going to be, and how glorious it will be to search Him out and know Him more. The joy of eternal life, the unfolding of the knowledge of God, is our portion from the new birth through today, into the endless ages. -David Sliker

"At the end of the day, global missions is about the worship of this spectacular Jesus." -David Mathis

Nothing will ever surpass the abasement and humiliation that Jesus voluntarily chose. In it he plainly said "God is a servant!" (Phil 2:5-11) -Joshua Hawkins

“We need never shout across the spaces to an absent God. He is nearer than our own soul, closer than our most secret thoughts.” – A.W. Tozer 

God’s revelation to and interaction with all of creation is expressed in His Son. God will go to piercing depths to clarify Himself. The eternal Son became Jesus of Nazareth and what the Father had always so enjoyed, now men and women could enjoy also. -Allen Hood

If Jesus had not offered Himself on the cross, the sacrifices of the Old Testament would have done nothing for the Jews. -Mike Bickle
