Sermon #598 Two Visions
Delivered On Sunday Morning, November 6, 1864, By C. H. Spurgeon,
At The Metropolitan Tabernacle, Newington.
“I Saw By Night And Behold A Man Riding Upon A Red Horse And He Stood Among The Myrtle Trees
That Were In The Bottom And Behind Him Were There Red Horses, Speckled And White.
Then Said I, O My Lord, What Are These? And The Angel That Talked With Me Said
Unto Me, I Will Show You What These Are, And The Man That Stood Among
The Myrtle Trees Answered And Said, These Are They Whom The Lord
Has Sent To Walk To And Fro Through The Earth. And They
Answered The Angel Of The Lord That Stood Among The Myrtle
Trees And Said, We Have Walked To And Fro Through The Earth And
Behold, All The Earth Sits Still And Is At Rest. Then The Angel Of The Lord
Answered And Said, O Lord Of Hosts, How Long Will You Not Have Mercy On
Jerusalem And On The Cities Of Judah, Against Which You Have Had Indignation These
Threescore And Ten Years? And The Lord Answered The Angel That Talked With Me With Good
Words And Comfortable Words. So The Angel That Communed With Me Said Unto Me,
Cry You, Saying, Thus Says The Lord Of Hosts; I Am Jealous For Jerusalem
And For Zion With A Great Jealousy. And I Am Very Sorely Displeased
With The Heathen That Are At Ease: For I Was But A Little
Displeased And They Helped Forward The Affliction.
Therefore Thus Says The Lord; I Am Returned
To Jerusalem With Mercies: My House Shall Be Built
In It, Says The Lord Of Hosts And A Line Shall Be Stretched
Forth Upon Jerusalem. Cry Yet, Saying, Thus Says The Lord
Of Hosts: My Cities Through Prosperity Shall Yet Be Spread Abroad.
And The Lord Shall Yet Comfort Zion And Shall Yet Choose Jerusalem.
Then Lifted I Up My Eyes And Saw And Behold Four Horns. And I Said Unto
The Angel That Talked With Me, What Are These? And He Answered Me, These
Are The Horns Which Have Scattered Judah, Israel And Jerusalem. And The Lord Showed
Me Four Carpenters. Then Said I, What Come These To Do? And He Spoke, Saying, These Are
The Horns Which Have Scattered Judah, So That No Man Did Lift Up His Head: But These Are Come
To Scatter Them, To Cast Out The Horns Of The Gentiles, Which Lifted Up Their Horn Over The Land Of Judah To Scatter It.” Zechariah 1:8-21.
