The sufferings of Christ

by

I wondered if, this afternoon, we could be occupied with the sufferings of the Lord Jesus. This is not an intellectual exercise. We have read quite a few Scriptures; we probably know these chapters, and others which refer to this subject, quite well; I would like us to see these from a very personal point of view. I believe that if we were to conclude this gathering with a real sense of knowledge about the Lord’s sufferings – what the Lord went through for each one of us – we would be drawn to Him in affection. He is the One Who suffered not only in obedience to God, but also on our behalf. If this causes us to draw close to the Lord Jesus afresh, then the exercise this afternoon will have been worthwhile.

The Friend

by

Our objective this evening is to have a greater appreciation of the Lord Jesus as a Friend, the Friend of sinners, and I believe it would help us in our pathway here, to walk in a way that is pleasing to Him.

I wondered if, this afternoon, we could be occupied in discussing and focusing on the sufferings of Jesus. Not as an intellectual exercise – we have read quite a few scriptures; we probably know these chapters quite well; I have only picked a few verses from both chapters in Matthew – but more from a personal point of view. I really think that if we were to conclude this gathering with a real sense of knowledge about the Lord’s sufferings – what the Lord went through for each one of us – and if we were drawn to Him, in affection to Him as the One Who suffered, in obedience to God, but also on our behalf, but I think that if we were drawn towards the Lord Jesus afresh then this exercise this afternoon will have been a worthy one.
