Do Not Trifle With the Grace of the Son

Such is He who pleads with you! So majestic and so compassionate, so great and yet so good—will you refuse Him? If I plead with you, I am but as you are—flesh of your flesh. But if Jesus speaks to you, I beseech you by the Glory of His Godhead, as well as by the tenderness of His Manhood, do not refuse Him! Because of His Godhead you must not dare to harden your hearts. He is God’s Well-Beloved and if you are wise, He will be yours. Do not turn your back on Him whom all the angels worship! Beware, lest you reject One whom God loves so well, for He will take it as an insult to Himself—

He that despises the Anointed of God has blasphemed God Himself! You put your finger into the very eye of God
when you slight His Son! In grieving the Christ you vex the very heart of God—therefore do not do it. I beseech you,
then, by the love which God bears to His Son, to listen to this matchless Messenger of mercy who would persuade you to repent.

Charles Spurgeon
“The Pleading of the Last Messenger”
