Elder Adam Green – Come Here
Elder Adam turns to 1 Samuel where we read that Samuel delivers a difficult message to king Saul that he had sinned by not wiping out the Amalekites and keeping king Agag alive. Samuel told Agag come here and he met vengeance. Elder Adam points out that God has every right to demand obedience, but when Jesus says come here to me, we are changed. It is comforting to hear Jesus say come here, and enjoy His presence of peace.
