[Manna - January 28]
He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before My Father, and before His angels. Revelation 3:5
THE faithful overcomers watch and keep their garments
unspotted from the world...."They have not
defiled their garments," they have "kept their garments
unspotted from the world."
They have not
been willing to permit sin to contaminate them and
to separate them from the Lord, but have quickly applied
for and obtained the precious blood to remove
every stain.
They are so heartily opposed to sin and
so earnest about the keeping of this garment unspotted
that the Adversary gets no hold upon them—"the
wicked one catcheth them not."
All this indicates a full submission of their wills to the will of Christ—they are "dead with Him," and hence could not willingly
practice sin. Z.'97-161 R2161:1
