THE INSIDE KNOB

John 13:21-30

It is startling to think that Satan can actually come into the heart of a man in such close touch with Jesus as Judas was. And more—he is cunningly trying to do it today. Yet he can get in only through a door opened from the inside. Every man controls the door of his own life. Satan can’t get in without our help. Master, help me keep my door tightly shut against him, and all his crafty wiles.

Romans 15:5  Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:

JUDAS ISN’T SO LONELY

Luke 22:3-6; Luke 22:21-23; Luke 22:47-49

Judas stands out through history as a man utterly despised because he betrayed his friend, and, worse yet, who did it by the use of friendship’s token of love. But—but—be careful, there, in talking about Judas! Is he so lonely after all? He simply put selfinterest first, even though it meant putting Jesus second; no, not second—clear out! Is this so uncommon? Judas did not realize how much it meant. Does anyone realize what his faithlessness may mean?

1 Corinthians  1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

SALTY SALT

Ezekiel 33:1-11

The world needs Christians even when it refuses their Christ. Salt is the great preservative. We are the world’s salt. Our presence has a wholesome influence. It is of utmost importance to keep this salt really salty. Watchfulness, in a sane, wholesome way, to be ready when our Lord may return —this tends to keep the whole life true. And this not only bears witness to the world; it also helps the world, even when the witness is rejected.

Galatians 5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

THE STIMULUS OF LOVE

Mark 13:31-37

Love is keen. No eyes so sharply alert as love’s eyes; no brain so wide-awake as the brain stimulated by love. It’s only when the heart’s aflame with a tender love that the mind and ear and eye and hand are at their best. When it’s a dear friend you’re watching for, then all the life is on tiptoe. It isn’t simply watching; it’s watching for him! And the watching makes sooner the day of the coming.
