MY SHEEP I GIVE ETERNAL LIFE

                                         
 




“I give unto my sheep eternal life.”[Genesis 7]

Gen_7:1
When the Lord said, “Come,” it was a gracious intimation that he was already in the ark, and meant to be there with his servant. It is also a type of the gospel invitation, “the Spirit and the bride say, Come.”
Gen_7:3
In Christ, the ark of our salvation, the unclean shall be sheltered as well as the clean. Noah was to bring them in, and such is the privilege of every believer; he is to labor for the saving of the souls of others.
Gen_7:11-14
It was wonderful that all these creatures should willingly enter the ark; and it is even more wonderful that sinners of all kinds should be led by sovereign grace to find refuge in. the Lord Jesus. They must come when grace calls.
Gen_7:16
What a blessed thing for Noah. Those whom God brings into Christ, he takes care to shut in, so that they shall go no more out. God did not shut Adam in Paradise, and so he threw himself out; and we should every one of us get out of Christ, if the Lord had not in mercy closed the door.
Gen_7:20
It was then too late to look to the ark. Dear friends, may we never put off faith in Jesus until it is too late. It will be an awful thing to find ourselves lost in a flood of wrath, with no eye to pity and no arm to save. Yet so it must be if we neglect the great salvation.
Gen_7:23
As there was no safety out of the ark, so is there no salvation out of Christ. The Lord grant that every member of this family may flee to Jesus at once, and be saved by faith in him.

Come to the ark, come to the ark,                       
To Jesus come away:
The floods of wrath are bursting forth,
O haste to Christ, to-day.

Come to the ark, all, all that weep
Beneath the sense of sin:
Without, deep calls unto deep;
But all is peace within.

Come to the ark, ere yet the flood
Your lingering steps oppose;
Come, for the door which open stood
Is now about to close.
