“Ye are Christ’s.” — 1 Corinthians 3:23
Ye are Christ’s.” You are His by donation, for the Father gave you to the
Son; His by His bloody purchase, for He counted down the price for your
redemption; His by dedication, for you have consecrated yourself to Him;
His by relation, for you are named by his name, and made one of His
brethren and joint-heirs. Labour practically to show the world that you are
the servant, the friend, the bride of Jesus. When tempted to sin, reply, “I
cannot do this great wickedness, for I am Christ’s.” Immortal principles
forbid the friend of Christ to sin. When wealth is before you to be won by
sin, say that you are Christ’s, and touch it not. Are you exposed to
difficulties and dangers? Stand fast in the evil day, remembering that you
are Christ’s. Are you placed where others are sitting down idly, doing
nothing?
Rise to the work with all your powers; and when the sweat
stands upon your brow, and you are tempted to loiter, cry, “No, I cannot
stop, for I am Christ’s. If I were not purchased by blood, I might be like
Issachar, crouching between two burdens; but I am Christ’s, and cannot
loiter.” When the siren song of pleasure would tempt you from the path of
right, reply, “Thy music cannot charm me; I am Christ’s.” When the cause
of God invites thee, give thy goods and thyself away, for thou art Christ’s.
Never belie thy profession. Be thou ever one of those whose manners are
Christian, whose speech is like the Nazarene, whose conduct and
conversation are so redolent of heaven, that all who see you may know
that you are the Saviour’s, recognizing in you His features of love and His
countenance of holiness. “I am a Roman!” was of old a reason for integrity;
far more, then, let it be your argument for holiness, “I am Christ’s!”
