SUFFICIENCY OF REVELATION
‘If it were not so, I would have told you.’
There is something exceedingly gracious and affecting about this declaration.
I. It is the language of pure friendship and open-hearted confidence.—‘If things had been darker than they are, if your difficulties greater, if your future less glorious, be sure that I would have told you.’
II. Are you satisfied with the revelation that God has been pleased to give?—Dare not to doubt this word of Christ, that if it had been best for you He would have told you more. Shall man hand God a table of contents, and ask the Almighty to make a revelation thereto according to his own device?
