"If they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the
dry?" --Luke 23:31
Among other interpretations of this suggestive question, the following
is full of teaching: "If the innocent substitute for sinners, suffer thus,
what will be done when the sinner himself --the dry tree--shall fall into the
hands of an angry God?" When God saw Jesus in the sinner's place, He did
not spare Him; and when He finds the unregenerate without Christ, He will not
spare them. O sinner, Jesus was led away by His enemies: so shall you be
dragged away by fiends to the place appointed for you. Jesus was deserted of
God; and if He, who was only imputedly a sinner, was deserted, how much more
shall you be? "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" what an awful shriek!
But what shall be your cry when you shall say, "O God! O God! why hast
Thou forsaken me?" and the answer shall come back, "Because ye have
set at nought all My counsel, and would none of My reproof: I also will laugh
at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh." If God spared not
His own Son, how much less will He spare you! What whips of burning wire will
be yours when conscience shall smite you with all its terrors. Ye richest, ye
merriest, ye most self-righteous sinners--who would stand in your place when
God shall say, "Awake, O sword, against the man that rejected Me; smite
him, and let him feel the smart for ever"? Jesus was spit upon: sinner,
what shame will be yours! We cannot sum up in one word all the mass of sorrows
which met upon the head of Jesus who died for us, therefore it is impossible
for us to tell you what streams, what oceans of grief must roll over your
spirit if you die as you now are. You may die so, you may die now. By the
agonies of Christ, by His wounds and by His blood, do not bring upon yourselves
the wrath to come! Trust in the Son of God, and you shall never die.
