GOSPEL NUGGETS
* Come To A Person
Mt 11:28 "COME TO ME, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Salvation is coming to a person. Not to a religious organization. Not to a religion. Come to Christ!!!
* Come Down To A Place
Lu 19:5 And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him, and said to him, "Zacchaeus, make haste and COME DOWN, for today I must stay at your house."
Zacchaeus was up on a tree. And the Lord invited him to come down. Applying this to spiritual salvation, if we want to be saved, we must come down. That is, we must humble ourselves realizing and acknowledging that we are sinners, helpless and hopeless in ourselves to save ourselves.
That is our rightful place. That's where we are spiritually in the eyes of God. Luke 14:11 says: "...whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."
Come Down!!!
* Come In To A Provision
Lu 14:23 "Then the master said to the servant, 'Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to COME IN, that my house may be filled.
Salvation is coming to a prepared provision.
The king in the parable prepared a provision for all for free. All they have to do is to come in and partake of the provision. In the same way, applying this to spiritual salvation, the work of salvation has already been prepared and completed. It was when Christ said: "It is finished!"
The work of salvation is prepared, it is complete, all you have to do is partake of it freely by faith. Come In!!!
