1 Kings 2; Jeremiah 10:1-46; Ephesians 4:1-16

[They] said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb. Revelation 6:16

This verse presents a dreadful scene and Lamb is probably the last word we would expect to find at the end of it. Those who have received Christ as Saviour think of the Lamb in terms of love, not wrath. He was the innocent sacrifice, the humble One who bore the wrath of God that He might take away the sin of the world. But there is another aspect to the Lamb. The Father has given all judgment to the Son and this future scene is certain. May we realize the awful truth of it and warn all souls of its reality. —Ken Gross

Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave;
Weep o’er the erring one, lift up the fallen,
Tell them of Jesus the mighty to save. —Fanny J. Crosby
