Whosoever…That includes you!
BIBLE MEDITATION:
“And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely” (Revelation 22:17)
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
You don’t have to pay one blessed cent for the water of life. Take it and drink freely. You’ll never have your heart’s deepest thirst satisfied until you’re satisfied with Jesus. I promise on the authority of the Word of God, He will save you,
Let’s say Samuel D. Smith, born July 4, 1990, asks, “But Pastor Rogers, what if I’m not one of the ‘elect’? How can I know for sure I’m one of the ‘elect’”?

What if it said, “Samuel D. Smith”? There might be another Samuel D Smith. It might not refer to our Sam.
What if it said, “Samuel D. Smith, born in Sam’s hometown on July 4, 1990”? There could be another Samuel D. Smith born in his town on July 4, 1990. By now you’re saying, “Adrian, you’re getting ridiculous.”
Let me solve this. Let’s forget all that and just put one word in there: “whosoever.” That’s exactly what it says: “Whosoever will, let him come…” That’s better than anybody’s name spelled out in detail.
Who are the elect? I can settle that in 30 seconds. The elect are the “whosoever wills.”
ACTION POINT:
If you want to be saved, come to Jesus. He’s reaching His nail-pierced hands to you, saying, “Come.” Jesus says come. The Spirit says come. The bride says come. The individual says come. You can come and drink
