Flames of Fire are as Nothing to the Sun of Righteousness; Much less Worms; or Better Stated 'Stare at the Sun':Mal 4:2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.
Heb 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
Heb 1:6 And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
Heb 1:7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
Heb 1:6 And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
Heb 1:7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
Job 25:4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
Job 25:5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
Job 25:6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
When we behold the Son of God in His rightful place we will see how low and unworthy mankind truly is. For behold, His angels are as a flame of fire, and yet unto which of them did the Father call 'His Son'? We see the beauty of their splendor, the power of their presence, the dreadfulness of their position, and yet they are called upon to worship the Son of God! O the burning of the Sun of Righteousness! He is an eternity of brightness compared to their flicker. But see, dear ones, the lowness of man- for he has no brightness in him. He is but a maggot of the dirt, one who feeds on the cruel, filth of his carnal pleasures.
If man is to be redeemed, behold, what mercy in God must there truly be! The Scripture makes it is clear that Christ has commanded us into existence spiritually. He has shed His light upon our hearts and given us an understanding:
2Co 4:6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
These dirt dwellers may recieve cleansing through Christ. And if ever it was appropriate to look directly at the Sun, now may we who are His, look steadfastly into the face of the Sun of Righteousness, into the face of Jesus Christ.
