Luke 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. The true followers of Jesus Christ have always been a little flock, compared with the rest of mankind. I. Then the majority may be on the wrong side. II. Then weakness does not of necessity involve danger or defeat. III. Then heaven is God's gift, and not the reward of works. IV. Then God does not judge by appearances. V. Then God, who promises the kingdom, will surely keep His word. VI. Then the Christian should be hopeful and happy. In life's fiercest tribulations, we should never forget that God's promises are worthy of our strongest confidence, and our constant trust. (T. Kelly.)
