Come! – Paul M. Williams

Bethesda Shalom

Matthew 11:28-30

It is expected that more than 4 billion people from around the world will watch the state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II live, smashing the record for the most-watched broadcast of all time. Now while there will be millions turning up in London to show their support, and billions tuning in across the world to watch it via broadcast, one thing is for sure, there won’t be anywhere near that number of people present inside Westminster Abbey! Attendance to the Abbey this Monday is by Royal invitation only! Now whilst this royal invite is restricted to a few thousand, the invitation that I want to draw to your attention this morning is unrestricted! It too is a Royal invitation, albeit not from the potentates of this world. The King who extends the Royal invitation before us this morning is unrivaled in majesty, unlimited in power and His reign knows no end of days. You say, what is the invitation? It is an invitation to come!! Who will take Him up on this invite?
