When The roll Is Called Up Yonder
By: Robert A. Searles
“I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God;
for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered
me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with
ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.”
“And he answered and spoke unto those who stood before him, saying, take
away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, behold, I
have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee
with change of raiment.” Zec 3:4.
“And when the king came in to
see the guests, he saw a man there which had not on a wedding garment:
and he saith unto him, friend , how camest thou in hither, not having a
wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then said the king to the
servants, bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into
outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many
are called, but few are chosen.” Matthew 22: 11-14.
“He that
overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment: and I will not
blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name
before my Father, and before his angels.” Rev 3:5.
When the roll
is called up yonder, will you be there? Is your name recorded in the
Lamb's book of life? Have you responded to the Lord's invitation to sit
at the banqueting table at the wedding feast of the Lord? Have your
filthy clothes been changed, and have you allowed the Lord to clothe
you with the shinning white garments of his righteousness.? Have you
acknowledged that you are a sinner by nature, as we all are, and that
your own self righteousness is as filthy rags? We all need to be bathed
in the blood of the Lamb of God, and clothed with his garments of
righteousness. Unless we believe and come to Christ, and accept him as
Savior and sacrifice for our sins, we will have to appear before God in
our filthy rags, and our name will have been blotted out of the Lamb's
book of life, and we will not hear the Lord calling our name to enter
into the banqueting hall.
The Lord has a robe of righteousness
awaiting to be put on all those who will come to him and believing in
him. Do you know for sure that when the angel of the Lord stands in
heaven to call the roll of all the saints, that your name will be called
and not blotted out? If you are not sure why not make sure of your
salvation today, and believe and call upon Christ before it is too late?
