Click here to view listing below for Luk 2:40

WE do not wonder at the gracious words that fell from Christ’s lips, for grace was poured into them (Ps. 45:2), the grace of God was upon Him (Luke 2:40); yea, He was full of grace and truth (John 1:14, 16). “His mouth is most sweet” (Song of Solomon 5:16). His mouth is sweet for many reasons.

  1. Sweet, because life-giving (John 6:63).
  2. Sweet, because supplying (Song of Solomon 1:2).
  3. Sweet, because assuring (Isaiah 58:14).
  4. Sweet, because sustaining (Deut. 8:3).
  5. Sweet, because comforting (John 14:1).
  6. Sweet, because powerful (Heb. 4:12).
  7. Sweet, because searching (Rev. 1:16).

The words of Christ are like oil upon the troubled waters, they bring calmness and comfort; they are like bread to the hungry man, they bring nourishment and nerve; they are like the warm spring, which causes nature to bud and blossom; they are like an unfailing spring, ever fresh and full; they are like a salve to a wound, healing and soothing; and they are like honey for sweetness and satisfaction.
