TEN CLASSES OF SCARS THAT JESUS BORE FOR MAN — 6TH MESSAGE.....(SUN PM 5/11/97)

In Revelation 3:14-18 is a command to anoint our eyes with eye-salve. The ground was cursed through Adam the First. The Second Adam, Jesus, removed the curse when He shed His Blood on the ground. His Blood sanctified the land, which included all the ground that man was made of. So, we have only to claim, by faith, what the LORD already has done for us — sanctified our ground that was cursed with thorns and briars. We must put our tears of gratitude over His Blood and believe.

When we find ourselves “messing up,” we must climb back upon the Altar and ask the LORD to nail us there one more time. The censers of the 250 who rebelled were nailed to the Brazen Altar and, thus, sanctified. Deuteronomy 4:22-25. When we are long in the land, our tendency is to make idols. Our greatest curse is ingratitude. We must keep our youthful enthusiasm over all that God has done for us.
