So am I?

Are they Israelites? so am I.  2 Corinthians 11:22
"WE have here A PERSONAL CLAIM,
and one that needs proof.

*The apostle knew that His claim was indisputable,
*but there are many persons who have no right to the title who yet claim to belong to the Israel of God.

... yet since the mercies of God belong to the saints AS SAINTS, and not as advanced saints, or well-taught saints, we may put in our plea, and say, "Are they Israelites? so am I; therefore the promises are mine, grace is mine, glory will be mine."


When God's people are rejoicing that they are His, what a happiness if they can say, "So AM I!" When they speak of being pardoned, and justified, and accepted in the Beloved, how joyful to respond, "Through the grace of God, SO AM I."

But this claim not only has its enjoyments and privileges,
but also its conditions and duties.
We must share with God's people in cloud as well as in sunshine.

When we hear them spoken of with contempt and ridicule for being Christians, we must come boldly forward and say, "So am I."
Charles Spurgeon
