The whole
town set out to meet Jesus …..
, and as soon as they saw Him they
implored Him to leave the neighbourhood
Mark
5:15-16
There have always been those children
of the Father who, having seen The
Word of Life alongside their own
have chosen to ignore It for reasons
which they knew and understood but
later forgot.
And there are and have always been
those who individually and corporately
drove The Word of Truth from them
for fear of the demands it would
make upon them. And so they have
nothing of real worth to sustain
and challenge them, to comfort and
console them in times of grief and
loss. Most serious of all they have
been deprived of that which would
have fed their understanding and
watered their souls in growth. What
is their substance and their standing
on the day of reckoning?
It is a most serious charge upon
every child of the Father to look
to that which confronts them from
the cradle to the grave, and consider
the implications behind, the lessons
to be learned. For the Word of Life
and Truth is constantly at work
in the souls and groups and gatherings
and nations to lead into growth
all who look for a lead into to
the values and service of eternal
life. Joy is in the unfolding and
the. fellowship and The Presence.
