FEED...
FEED... FEED My lambs, my sheep;
NOT
make... make... make sheep for Me!
John
21
15 He
saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him,
Feed my lambs.
16 He
saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him,
Feed my sheep.
17And
he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee.
Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep."
The
sheep are already there by Christ's works; He sends you out to feed them that are
already there by His free and sovereign act of giving them eternal life through
His Spirit.
But
SO MANY preachers - both Arminians as well as their elitist cousins
Calvinists don't even understand this simple command; they sincerely think
Christ commands them to go and help Him make His sheep through their preaching!
Oh,
those deceived and deluded gospel regenerationists. What has bewitched them?
Why
aren't they content with the noble work of feeding Christ's sheep with the food
provided by the Lord Himself?
Why
must they insist on their role in the divine work of regeneration?
Why
must they usurp God's divine work of giving eternal life?
Isn't
that an example of repudiating the word of Christ, and being an enemy of the
cross of Christ?
I
have never heard of a midwife foolish enough to insist that she had played any
role in the conception of the child she assisted to deliver into the family.
But such foolishness prevails in Christendom.
