All the jewels in the Savior's crown are without a single flaw!
(Charles Spurgeon)
"Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away, and will present you faultless with great joy into His glorious presence!" Jude 1:24
Revolve in your mind that wondrous word "faultless"! We are far off from it now; but as our Lord never stops short of perfection in His work of redeeming love, every saved sinner shall be without blemish one day. The Savior who will keep His people to the end, will also present them at last to Himself as "a glorious Church, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing-but holy and without blemish!"
All the jewels in the Savior's crown are without a single flaw!
But how will Jesus make us faultless? He will wash us from our sins in His own blood, until we are as white and lovely as God's purest angel! We shall be clothed in His perfect righteousness, which makes the saint who wears it truly faultless, perfect in the sight of God.
Also, the work of the Holy Spirit within us will be altogether complete. He will make us so perfectly holy, that we shall have no lingering tendency to sin. We shall be as holy as God is holy, and we shall dwell in His presence forever!
"You are altogether beautiful, My beloved-there is no spot in you!" Song of Songs 4:7
Sin gone,
Satan shut out,
temptation past forever,
and ourselves "faultless" before God
-this will be Heaven indeed!
