Ezekiel 47
Concise Complete
These waters signify the gospel of Christ, which went
forth from Jerusalem, and spread into the countries about; also the gifts and
powers of the Holy Ghost which accompanied it, by virtue of which is spread far,
and produced blessed effects. Christ is the Temple; and he is the Door; from him
the living waters flow, out of his pierced side. They are increasing waters.
Observe the progress of the gospel in the world, and the process of the work of
grace in the heart; attend the motions of the blessed Spirit under Divine
guidance. If we search into the things of God, we find some things plain and
easy to be understood, as the waters that were but to the ankles; others more
difficult, which require a deeper search, as the waters to the knees, or the
loins; and some quite beyond our reach, which we cannot penetrate; but must, as
St. Paul did, adore the depth,romans 11. It is wisdom to
begin with that which is most easy, before we proceed to that which is dark and
hard to be understood. The promises of the sacred word, and the privileges of
believers, as shed abroad in their souls by the quickening Spirit, abound where
the gospel is preached; they nourish and delight the souls of men; they never
fade nor wither, nor are exhausted. Even the leaves serve as medicines to the
soul: the warnings and reproofs of the word, though less pleasant than Divine
consolations, tend to heal the diseases of the soul. All who believe in Christ,
and are united to him by his sanctifying Spirit, will share the privileges of
Israelites. There is room in the church, and in heaven, for all who seek the
blessings of that new covenant of which Christ is Mediator.
