Christ our Safety and Rest - Peter Hockley

(1) In Christ we find Refuge. Safety is found in Jesus Christ (Isaiah 32:2, Proverbs 18:10). But Divine judgment is coming on the ungodly, who are outside Christ (Psalm 1:4, 11:6, Jeremiah 23:19, 30:23, 2Thessalonians 2:8). (2) In Christ we find Refreshment. Having made us completely safe, Christ then makes us fully satisfied (Isaiah 32:2, Psalm 42:1, 143:6, John 4:10,14, 7:37-38, Revelation 21:6, 22:17). (3) In Christ we find Rest. Jesus provides in Himself a place of shade and peaceful rest from the world (Isaiah 32:2, Hebrews 4:9-10, Matthew 11:28-30).
