It was ever Christ's method to do at once what He undertook to do — to do it '' straightway," or " immediately," or " forthwith and he wishes us to be decided, like Himself. It was an arrow shot into the conscience of Judas. " If the thing be worth doing, do it at once." The Lord Jesus calls on all to be decided, one way or other. He cannot bear our haltings and lingerings and lukewarmness. If salvation be worth having at any time, it is worth having now. Yonder, right before you, is the Cross of Christ! You are confronting it at this moment. Will you accept that sacrifice as all your hope for ever ? Will you decide now 1 " That thou doest, do quickly." _ Our hesitation is displeasing to Christ. There is so much of our own righteousness in it. We wait, trying to feel more, to hate sin more, to repent more, and these improved feelings and greater tenderness of heart would be something of our own, a price in our hand. If the obedience and blood of the Righteous One be enough, why not receive Him at once? " Do quickly" what you do. A slow gradual coming has very much of man in it. A divine work is done quickly. If man is to bring down on oak, he takes time, but if God is to do the like work, He does it in the twinkling of an eye, by the flash of His lightning. When it is an earthly physician that is to work a cure, he takes time ; but when the Lord Jesus was the physician, the cure was perfected in a moment. God the Father ask*—" Wilt thou be well pleased with Him in whom I am well pleased 1" We think it humility to hesitate. God the Father asks—" Wilt thou look upon the brazen serpent and be healed ?" We fancy it humility to make no reply! This is unbelief, not humility. The Voice from Heaven cries, " All things are ready, come !" " That thou doest, do quickly."
