Come: You Are Invited

John 6:37

All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out.

John 14:3

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

Hebrews 13:14

For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come.

Galatians 4:9

But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more?

You are invited to come. Where?

To a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

This includes HIM sharing with you and others –

his home,

his kingdom,

his business,

his rule,

his knowledge,

his wisdom,

his associates,

his family,

his plans,

his purpose,

his lifestyle,

his attributes,

his humor,

his character,

his creation,

his love,

his joy,

his peace,

his wealth,

his goodness,

his music,

his art,

his beauty,

his words,

his thoughts,

his dreams,

his grace,

his favor,

his authority,

his principles,

his boundaries,

his riches,

his gifts,

his worldview,

his blessings,

his fruit,

his abundance,

his participation,

his rest,

his ways,

and everything else created by Him, for Him and through Him (Col 1:16-17).

He is knocking on your door and wants you to share in his eternal work (Rev 3:20-21).

It all starts by taking action. Coming into his presence. Acknowledging and accepting his claim as King and Lord of your life.

Come is a simple word that invites action on our part.

Will you come?

Inclusiveness of Jesus Christ

Matthew 6:9

“This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name…

Is it too bold to state all humanity is included in the relationship Christ has with HIS Father? Didn’t HE teach HIS disciples when they prayed to address God as “OUR Father”?

Is it safe to say God will judge all humans through Jesus Christ as those who belong to God through Him? If so then, are not all humans, in spite of themselves, loved, forgiven, and included in Jesus Christ, who is their Lord and Savior?

Isn’t it also true, God’s love will never cease or diminish even for those who, denying the reality of who they are in him, refuse his love and consign themselves to hell?

If they choose not to enjoy the fruit of his salvation, will they not experience his love as wrath?

Doesn’t God discipline those he loves so that they will return to him and live? Isn’t HE portrayed in the Book of Revelations as standing at the door and knocking, urging people to open the door to his everlasting love?

In the end, doesn’t God’s judgment in Christ mean the ultimate end of evil and the renewal of the earth and all creation?

As the prophesied Savior of humanity, did he not suffer and die for all human sin, was raised bodily from the dead, and ascended to heaven?

At the time, didn’t HE take on our broken and alienated humanity and included the entire human race in his right relationship with the Father?

At the time, didn’t his regeneration of our humanity allow us to share in his son-ship, being adopted as God’s own children in the Power of the Spirit?

Today as our representative and substitute, doesn’t HE stand in for all humanity before the Father, providing the perfect human response to God on our behalf and reconciling humanity to the Father?

Will HE not come again in glory as King of kings and Lord of lords over all nations?

When I read scripture, I read how inclusive Jesus Christ’s life and message pertains to all humanity. How we respond though is what separates us from HIM, not HIM from us. He died for all, but not all have accepted HIS reality. Have you?
