Jesus is Entreating Us to Come Now that It Is Not Still Too Late ㅡ
“As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die?” (Ezekiel 33:11).
The voice that speaks to the impenitent today is the voice of Him who in heart anguish exclaimed as He beheld the city of His love:
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her own brood under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.” (Luke 13:34, 35 , R.V.)
In Jerusalem, Jesus beheld a symbol of the world that had rejected and despised His grace.
He was weeping, O stubborn heart, for you! Even when Jesus’ tears were shed upon the mount, Jerusalem might yet have repented, and escaped her doom.
For a little space the Gift of heaven still waited her acceptance. So, O heart, to you Christ is still speaking in accents of love:
“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me.”
“Now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” (Revelation 3:20; 2 Corinthians 6:2).
(Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing 151.2)
