1 Chronicles 28:1-8 And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes… Good and great men have always been jealous for the cause of God in the world, and when about to die, that feeling has sometimes been intensified. Moses, Eli, etc. I. THE ESTATE OF CHRIST'S CHURCH IS AN INHERITANCE. It consists of the knowledge of the triune God, our relations to Him and our obligations as revealed to us in His Word. II. THIS INHERITANCE IS YOURS. III. THE FORCES WHICH WOULD BRING WRECK AND RUIN TO THIS INHERITANCE. Sacerdotalism on the one hand, rationalism on the other. (Bp. Baker.) Parallel Verses KJV: And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies that ministered to the king by course, and the captains over the thousands, and captains over the hundreds, and the stewards over all the substance and possession of the king, and of his sons, with the officers, and with the mighty men, and with all the valiant men, unto Jerusalem. |
