The Measure of the Divine Demands Upon Man
David Lloyd. Numbers 3:1-13 These also are the generations of Aaron and Moses in the day that the LORD spoke with Moses in mount Sinai.… I. GOD GAVE THE BEST HE HAD TO EFFECT OUR SALVATION. II. THE SON GAVE HIMSELF. Let us sacrifice ourselves to God as He sacrificed His Son for us. 1. Thus only can we attain to a high ideal in religion. Be the best possible Christian: be not content with mediocrity: aim high. 2. This is the best way to be useful. The power of Christianity is in the fact of Christ giving Himself. Our influence for good is in proportion to our selfsacrifice. 3. This is the way to enjoy religion. The more we give of self to God, the more will He give of Himself to us. Let all think of what God has done for them, and consider what returns they have made to Him. (David Lloyd.)
