"And
the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come.
And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the
water of life freely." - Revelation 22:17
"...And
whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely..." You don't have
to pay one blessed cent for it. It's there. Take it and drink it. You
will never have your heart's deepest thirst satisfied until you're
satisfied with Jesus. And if you are thirsty, come and drink. He will
save you, I promise on the authority of the Word of God.
You say,
"But Pastor Rogers, what if I'm not one of the elect?" Well, would it
help? Could I be more sure if He said, "If Adrian Rogers will come and
drink." I could say, "Now wait a minute. There's more than one Adrian
Rogers in the world today." What if Revelation 22:17 said, "Adrian
Pierce Rogers"? There might be another Adrian Pierce Rogers. It might
not refer to me.
What if it said, "Adrian Pierce Rogers, born in
West Palm Beach, Florida"? Well, there could be another Adrian Pierce
Rogers born in West Palm Beach, Florida. What if it said, "Adrian Pierce
Rogers, born in West Palm Beach, Florida, who now lives in Shelby
County, Tennessee? There might be another one born in West Palm Beach,
Adrian. By now you're saying, "You're getting ridiculous."
Let me
just solve this thing. Let's forget all that and just put one word in
there: "whosoever." Whosoever! That's better than anybody's name spelled
out. Who are the elect? I can settle that in 30 seconds. The elect are
the "whosoever wills."
