Others With Them

Luke 24:1 KJV
Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

Sometimes the simplest phrase can come to life with meaning.

As the women came that morning to anoint the body of Jesus this verse says they brought with them the spices they had prepared. They came prepared to meet and minister to the Lord. And it says they brought with them some others.

These two phrases should be the example of every Christian when we come to meet the Lord on His day.

Come prepared
• Come prepared to teach a class if that is your ministry
• Come prepared to spend time in prayer
• Come prepared to give your tithes and offerings
• Come with a heart that has been prepared to both serve the Lord and hear his Word.

Come with some others
As Christians
• We ought always desire to be a help and a witness to others
• We ought to always be meeting new people and building friendships and reaching out to them on a spiritual level and
• We ought always to try to bring them with us to the church house that they might come to know our Saviour.
