As everybody wants to make a fortune, and riches is the common talk of the day, we might put in a little time very profitably studying the beautiful things that our heavenly Father tells us in His Word about riches. People refer to this country and speak of it as their estate. We hear much about the great estate of some people, and while others are talking about their estate, we also are classed among those who are extremely rich. We range among the "upper tens," for you will understand we are going up later on. We even outrank what is supposed to be the "400." Thank God, there are millions of us! Now we just want to notice that the Bible speaks of "riches," and again we are told that we are to have "exceeding riches." In the third place He tells us that we are to have "great riches" and in the fourth place He reaches the climax by speaking of "unsearchable riches." No doubt in my mind but what the expression of "unsearchable riches" is the "fullness of the blessing" to such a degree that it could scarcely be improved upon in this world.
While it would be a difficult matter to explain unsearchable riches, thank God, it is wonderful to enjoy. Evidently the man with unsearchable riches is the man that has been cleaned up and then cleaned out and then filled up and sent out and charged and surcharged and wound up and then this fellow will have God for his Father and Jesus Christ for his Savior and the Holy Ghost for his abiding Comforter, and the redeemed saints of all the ages for his brothers and sisters. He will have the angels for his companions. The Bible will be his way-bill from earth to glory, and heaven will be his eternal home. This fellow you see is evidently well off. We think that these four expressions of riches are all to be found in this bill of fare, and we believe that riches, exceeding riches and great riches and unsearchable riches are all wrapped up in the beautiful expression that we call "Full Salvation." Now we read in II Corinthians, 8th chapter and 9th verse, where Paul said, "For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich." Again we read in Revelation 3d chapter 18th verse Christ said again to the people, "I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire that ye may be rich, and white raiment that thou mayest be clothed and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear, and anoint thine eyes with eye salve, that thou mayest see."
We believe that the reader will agree with us that all these beautiful things concerning riches are found wrapped up in that wonderful expression of "unsearchable riches." For a dying saint with the angels around him with his vision so enlarged and clarified that he can look clear through into heaven is evidently in possession of something that is wonderful, it is beyond the comprehension of the finite mind. So rich, so beautiful, so glorious so eternal that God just summed it up in that wonderful expression of "unsearchable riches."
Bless His name! Amen!
