4.2.18 – “One of these days those who know
Jesus will wear robes of white and that day is coming sooner than we expect.
The trouble here is that many who name the name of Christ are wearing something
between black and white. They live in a twilight zone of ambiguous gray, an
indefinable mixture that typifies the “lukewarmness” found today. If we are
going to wear white in the hereafter we better get used to wearing it in the
here and now!” Vance Havner
My prayer for you today is for you to
stay “close to the fire” so you’ll stay warm when it’s cold!
Revelation
3:18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in
the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be
clothed, and that the shame of
thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou
mayest see. KJV
“A rabbi and a priest get into a car
accident and it's a bad one. Both cars are totally demolished but amazingly
neither of the clerics is hurt. After they crawl out of their cars, the rabbi
sees the priest's collar and says, "So you're a priest. I'm a rabbi. Just
look at our cars. There's nothing left, but we are unhurt. God must have meant
that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace the rest of our
days." The priest replies, "I agree with you completely. This must be
a sign from God." The rabbi continues, “And looks at this. Here's another
miracle. My car is completely demolished but this bottle of Kedem wine didn't
break. Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good
fortune." Then he hands the bottle to the priest. The priest agrees, takes
a few big swigs, and hands the bottle back to the rabbi. The rabbi takes the
bottle, immediately puts the cap on, and hands it back to the priest. The
priest asks, "Aren't you having any?" The rabbi replies, "No...I
think I'll wait for the police."
