Today's verse is 2 Corinthians 2:15-16
For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:
To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?
Has not our God also said, So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth;/ It shall not return unto me void, / But it shall accomplish that which I please, / And it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. We by God’s Word can be confident that He, by His Spirit, and by the sacrifice Christ made of himself on the Cross, that he draws all men unto himself, but God is gracious and he will not force any man, but will give him sufficient knowledge of the Truth that if he would, he could come to receive the Saving Power that Jesus Christ offers to all men [generic, for those that refuse such things.] But those that refuse, even for them God has his purpose even as we are told: The Lord hath made all things for himself:/ Yea, even the wicked for the day of evil. But because you have testified, you are clear of their blood, and their mouth will be stopped in the day of Judgment because they will have been warned. Amen.
To God be the Glory
Scott
