But what is this warning which follows? The favored nation grew deaf to
their Lord’s command, and proved not to be truly his sheep, of whom it is
written, “My sheep hear my voice”; will
this turn out to be our character also? God forbid. Today if ye will hear his voice. Dreadful if. Many would not hear; they put off the claims
of love, and provoked their God. Today, in the hour of grace, in the day
of mercy, we are tried as to whether we have an ear for the voice of our
Creator. Nothing is said of tomorrow; he presses for immediate attention; for
our own sakes he asks instantaneous obedience.
