Good evening. Let's open tonight's
service with hymn number 37 from the Hardback Tymnal, number 37,
How Great Thou Art. Let's all stand together. We'll
skip the second stanza. We'll just sing one, three, and
four. O Lord my God, when I in awesome
wonder Consider all the works Thy hands have made, I see the
stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy power throughout the universe
displayed. Then sings my soul, my Savior
God, to Thee. How great Thou art! How great Thou art! Then sings my soul, my Savior
God, to Thee. How great Thou art! How great Thou art! And when I think that God, His
Son not sparing, Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in. ? That on the cross my burden
gladly bearing ? He bled and died to take away my sin ? Then
sings my soul my Savior God to thee How great Thou art! How great Thou art! Then sings my soul, my Savior
God, to Thee How great Thou art! How great Thou art! When Christ shall come with shout
of acclamation and take me home, what joy shall fill my heart. Then I shall bow in humble adoration,
And there proclaim, My God, how great thou art! Then sings my soul, my Savior
God, to Thee, How great Thou art, how great Thou art. Then sings my soul, my Savior
God to Thee. How great Thou art, how great
Thou art. Please be seated. Good evening. We're going to
read Psalm 21 for our call to worship. Psalm 21. In that day we shall shout with
acclamation, how great thou art. We have just a very small glimpse
of His glory now compared to what we'll have then. Psalm 21 to the chief musician,
a Psalm of David. The King in the reference here
is to the father. Shall joy in thy strength. Oh Lord, and in thy salvation.
How greatly shall he rejoice? The king here is referenced to
Christ and he's rejoicing in the salvation that the father
has given him. Thou has given him his heart's
desire and has not withholding the request of his lips, Selah. For thou preventest, and that
word means he went before, thou preventest him with blessings,
with the blessings of goodness, thou settest a crown of pure
gold on his head. He asked life of thee and thou
gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever. His glory
is great in thy salvation, honor and majesty hast thou laid upon
him. For thou hast made him most blessed
forever, Thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance, for
the king trusted in the Lord. And through the mercy of the
Most High, he shall not be moved. Thine hand shall find out all
thine enemies. Thy right hand shall find out
those that hate thee. Thou shalt make them as a fiery
oven in the time of thine anger. The Lord shall swallow them up
in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them, their fruit thou
shalt destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the
children of men. For they intended evil against
thee. They imagined a mischievous device, which they were not able
to perform. Therefore, shalt thou make them
turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon
thy strings against the face of them. Be thou exalted, Lord,
in thine own strength. So will we sing and praise thy
power. Let's pray together. Our gracious heavenly father,
what hope we have in knowing that all the mischievous devices
that the world plotted against thy son, they were not able to
achieve. For you turned their evil against
them and used the wrath of man to bring praise and honor and
glory to thy name and to thy dear son. We thank you for the
hope of life that you give in him. We pray father that you'd
be pleased now this hour to bless your word. Lord, bless it to
our hearts, speak to us and meet with us or don't leave us to
ourselves. We ask it in Christ's name. Amen. Number 175 from the hardback
temple. Let's stand together again. 175.

cannot lie, a God who is faithful to his word. If you'd like to open God's word
with me to 2 Peter 1, I want to show you something here that the Lord
blessed me with and I hope that he will bless us together tonight. We're gonna go back and look
at some verses that we've already been through the last couple
of Wednesday nights. But in these first four verses
of 1 Peter, I found seven things that the Lord has provided in order to enable us to have
hope in the life to come and grace in the life that we now
live. And as you know, the number seven
is the number for perfection. And so I see in these verses,
our Lord's perfect provision, giving us everything necessary
for glory, the life to come, and for virtue, the life that
we now live. Look at verse three. According
as his divine power hath given unto us, all things, all things
that pertain unto life and godliness through the knowledge of him
that hath called us to glory and virtue." Everything that's
required. I thought about David providing
Solomon everything that Solomon needed to build the temple. so
that after David died and Solomon began construction, he never
had to go find anything. Everything for building that
temple was there already provided. And so it is with our Lord's
mercy. He has provided everything pertaining
to life, eternal, and godliness, virtue, pertaining to glory,
the hope that we have is that we will see him as he is and
be made like him in the fullness of his glory and virtue, the
life that we desire to live by faith here. Everything required,
he's provided. He gave it by his own divine
power. And that's the only way that these things can be had
is by the power of God. These things that are required
for glory and virtue, these things that are required for life and
godliness, we don't have them. The world doesn't have them.
Only God possesses them and only he can give them. And he's merciful
to do that. So that all that pertaineth to
life and godliness, all that pertaineth to glory and virtue,
God gives to his children by his grace. And as I've already
mentioned, it's interesting that there are seven things that are
spoken of here Some of them we've already looked at, but let's
read the first four verses again together. Simon Peter, a servant
and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like
precious faith. There's the first thing, faith,
faith. With us through the righteousness. There's the second thing, righteousness.
of God and our savior, Jesus Christ. The third thing, grace.
The fourth thing, peace be multiplied unto you through the fifth thing,
the knowledge of God. You see how these things can
only be given to us by God. The knowledge of God and of Jesus
Christ, according as his divine power hath given unto us all
things that pertain unto life, and godliness through the knowledge
of him that hath called us to glory and virtue, whereby, the sixth thing now, whereby are
given unto us, we just sang, exceeding great and precious
promises, that by these, the seventh thing, you might be partakers
of the divine nature. having escaped the corruption
that is in the world through lust. When Sarah laughed about having
a child at 90 years old, the Lord said to her, is anything
too hard for God? Anything too hard? The power of God is all power. He is omnipotent, he possesses
all power. When the Lord told the disciples
that it was easier for a rich man to go through the eye, a
camel to go through the eye of a needle than was for rich man
to enter the kingdom of heaven, the Lord said, who then can be
saved? And what did the Lord say? He said, with man, it is
impossible, but with God, All things are possible. All things
are possible. When the angel met with Mary
in Luke chapter one and told her that she was going to bear
the Christ and that her cousin Elizabeth was already six months
pregnant, who was barren and up in years The angel said to
Mary, with God, nothing shall be impossible. With God, nothing
shall be impossible. There's our hope brethren, that
God has given to us by his power, all things necessary for glory
and for virtue. Jeremiah chapter 32, verse 27
said, the Lord said, behold, I am the Lord of all flesh. Is
there anything too hard for me? Is there anything too hard for
me? In order for us to receive these
things from God, he has to make us unable to provide them for
ourselves. He has to take away our ability. His power begins at the end of
ours so that his power is made perfect in our weakness. We must be made powerless. And
this is done by the power of God. we must be made to be helpless
sinners completely dependent on one outside of ourselves when we are yet without strength
in due time Christ died for the ungodly so we have to be we have
to be stripped of our ability we have to be stripped of our
strength and that is by the power of God he must make us willing
in the day of his power And here's the work of God's grace that
brings us to the end of ourselves. Lord, the things that I need
for glory and for virtue, the things that I need for life and
for godliness, I cannot provide for myself. You said they are given, they
are given by the divine power. That's what I need. Just before our Lord ascended
back into glory, he said to the disciples, all power has been
given unto me in heaven and in earth. Now, if he possesses all
power, then that means you and I have no power. Go and make
disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father
and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Lo, I am with you always, even
unto the end of the earth. We are powerless, brethren, to
provide what pertaineth to life and godliness. We are powerless
to save ourselves. It is not of him that willeth
nor of him that runneth, it's of God that showeth mercy. He will not share his glory with
another, so he'll strip us of our glory and our strength and
our power before he demonstrates his. The power of God starts where
ours ends. We're like Lazarus in the tomb,
aren't we? It took the power of God to raise
him from the dead. Nothing he could do to deliver
himself. It took the power of God to stop
Saul of Tarsus in his mad rage of hatred toward God and and
turn one who was so opposed to God into a willing servant and
not just a willing servant, an apostle. That's the power of God. And
nothing that God does is of greater display of his power than the
saving of a sinner. We think of creation being a
demonstration of the power of God. He spoke and all things
were. It was a whole lot easier for
light to shine upon the face of the earth that was without
form and void than it is for the light of the gospel to shine
in the face of the Lord Jesus Christ into a darkened heart
of a sinner who's without form and void. Takes a lot more power. Nothing
in creation has ever resisted the word of God. Nothing has
ever stood up in rebellion against God. It's all in perfect submission
to his authority and to his word and to his power. Only a sinner
will stand and shake his fist at God. And nothing is transformed
more by the power of God than one who is by nature at enmity
with God and made to be at friendship with God. And nothing required
more, well, nothing required the death of the Lord Jesus Christ
other than the saving of a sinner. Nothing required more on God's
part than for him to make for us that which pertaineth to life
and godliness, to glory and virtue, all that is required, all that
is necessary. The power of God in making and
sustaining all of creation, from what we know exists in the microscopic
world to the telescopic world of the universe, All that God's
doing to hold all that together and to put everything in its
place at all times is of no effort on his part. Someone said, well, do you believe
there's life on another planet? I said, I don't know of any reason
why to think that. Why would God create, why would
God go to the trouble of making all those stars and planets and
solar systems and what trouble? What trouble? No trouble. He
spoke and it was. The trouble was the saving of
sinners. That God had to leave his throne
of glory and be clothed in the likeness of sinful flesh and
suffer the contradiction of sinners in this world and bear the sins
of his people and suffer the full wrath of his Father. and
die. There's power. Nothing required
more power from God than the saving of a sinner. That's what our Lord is encouraging
John the Baptist when John's put in prison and he sends some
of his disciples to ask the Lord, he said, aren't thou he that
should come or should we wait on another? And what did the
Lord say to those disciples of John? The Lord loved John. He knew John was about to lose
his head. The Lord was going to give John every word of encouragement
and comfort and grace that he could to help him in these final
hours of his life. And what did the Lord say to
John? You go back and tell John what you have seen and what you
have heard. The blind see, for a man to get spiritual sight
who was blind, the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are
cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the gospel
is preached unto the poor. Go tell John that. That'll lift
his spirits. That'll give him hope that I
am the Christ, the one he pointed to and said, behold, the Son
of God who taketh away the sins of the world. Restore his hope
by telling him what you have seen and what you have heard.
with the power of God. The gospel is the power of God.
The Jews require a sign. And to the Greeks, it's foolishness.
But unto God's people, both Jews and Greeks, the gospel, Christ,
the power of God and the wisdom of God, the gospel is God's power. Nothing, and child of God, you
know that it took the power, it took a divine power to give
you grace to believe, to open the eyes of your understanding,
to enable you to stand in the presence of a holy God. It wasn't
something that you came up with. It wasn't something you had the
ability to come up with. all things pertaining. I want to know what things God
requires pertaining to glory and virtue, pertaining to life
and godliness. What does God require? Because
I need him to provide that. And here he's telling us, I provided
everything. Everything required pertaining
to life and godliness I provided. And as I said, we've looked at
some of these in some detail. I wanna go back and consider
this like precious faith because that's where it begins. That's
where it begins. We have no hope for life or godliness
or grace or glory and without faith. And faith is not something we've
come up with. Faith is bringing us to the end
of ourselves and shutting us up to Christ and giving us no
options outside of Christ and revealing him so that we see
and we believe and we hear. Faith, without faith it's impossible
to please God. They that cometh to him must
believe that he is and that he's the rewarder of them that diligently
seek him and this faith is a gift of God. Oh Lord, if you didn't
give me faith, I wouldn't have come up with it. Not saving faith. Now the size of faith and the
strength of faith differs from believer to believer. The subject of faith is the same. The person and work of the Lord
Jesus Christ. You see, all believers believe
that Christ is all. All believers believe that. They
believe that he's all and that he's in all. He's all in the
scriptures and he's in all the scriptures. He's all in my election
and he's in all my election. Apart from him as my surety,
Standing in the covenant of grace, I would not have been chosen.
We are chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world.
Here's what faith does. Faith just believes that Christ
is all in my salvation. He's all in election. He's all in creation. He's all
in providence. Everything in creation points
to him. If we could see God's handiwork as he really purposed
it, it would all point to him. Everything in it would point
to him. We believe that he's all in providence,
don't we? That whatever he does is right
and that he works all things together for good. that all the
trials and troubles that, you know, I was thinking about this
past year, and you always hear somebody at this time of the
year saying, you know, I hope next year's better than last
year. And all they can do is just reminisce over the trials
and troubles that they had last year. Oh, brethren, let's don't
think that way. Let's don't think that way. Whatever
trials and troubles we went through last year, God ordained every
one of them. and they were good. I'm not saying they're easy.
I'm not saying they're easy, but they're good. And so many
blessings. He's kept us and brought us to
this place in our lives where we're able to worship him. What
sustaining grace that he's given us. And whatever his purpose
for next year will be, will be good. We know that our God reigns. over the armies of heaven and
over all the inhabitants of the earth, he hath done whatsoever
he wills. And child of God takes great
comfort there. Our God is sovereign, our God
is omnipotent. I have by my divine power given
you everything that pertaineth to godliness, to life, to glory,
to virtue, everything that you're required. And it's all gonna
be received through faith, through faith. Believers know that their faith
is a gift of God. It wasn't a decision they made. There's no room for boasting
in their faith. Child of God looks at the faith
that they have and they think, oh Lord, help my unbelief. How
little my faith is, how shameful my faith is. Lord, I should believe
you perfectly and I don't. I should, should believe you
all the time. Is this not the sin that doth
so easily beset us, unbelief? Too often times our God is way
too small, isn't He? Way too small. And He's saying to us here, I've
given you everything that pertaineth, everything necessary, and it's
all going to be received through this miracle of faith. Notice in verse one, he says,
not only do we have like precious faith, and it's like, it's the
same in its subject. As I said, it differs in size
and strength from believer to believer and from day to day
within the one believer's life. Sometimes you have great faith,
sometimes your faith is very weak, but our faith has an object. And that never changes, never
changes. And notice he says, not only
we have this precious, like precious faith, we have righteousness. Now that pertaineth to divine
power. How is one who is by nature completely
unrighteous, one who has no righteousness, considered perfectly righteous
before God. Well, of Him, of the Father,
are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us our wisdom,
our righteousness, our sanctification, and our redemption. So God made
Him so. So when God looks at those who
are in Christ, he sees them not after their own righteousness,
but in the righteousness of Christ, the perfect righteousness of
the Lord Jesus Christ. Takes the power of God to make
one who is devoid of all righteousness and make them perfectly righteous. And it is God's daily divine
power by his Holy Spirit that reminds us that our righteousness
is in Christ and causes us to keep looking to and rejoicing
in the Lord Jesus Christ for all of our acceptance before
God. By my divine power, I've given
you everything that pertaineth to life and godliness, everything
that pertaineth to glory, and virtue. Grace. See verse two. Grace. Turn with me to Zachariah. We've looked at this verse on
several occasions. I just want to look at two verses
in Zachariah chapter four. Zachariah, right before Malachi.
The end of your Old Testament. Zechariah chapter four, look
at verse six. Then he answered and spake unto
me saying, this is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel. And
Zerubbabel is the man that led the children of Israel from Babylon
back to rebuild the temple. But prophetically, he's a picture
of Christ. Look what it says about him.
Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord
of hosts. Who art thou, O great mountain,
before Zerubbabel? Thou shalt become a plain, and
he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying,
grace, grace unto it. It's all of grace. Grace is free. can't purchase it, we can't,
we can't obligate God to give it, we can't, we can't earn it
in any way. That's what grace means and grace
is sovereign. It's God's grace to give and
to withhold. You and I are completely dependent
upon him for that grace, aren't we? We talk to our religious
friends, we have to say, no, we're talking about free and
sovereign grace, not the kind of grace you're talking about. They don't know that when they
use the word grace, grace by its very nature is free and sovereign.
We have to explain it, don't we? By grace, we're saved. It was God that chose us according
to grace and the covenant of grace and put us in Christ by
his grace. He didn't look down through the
quarters of time and choose those that would believe or those that
had some virtue in their life. No, he chose us according to
his own will and purpose to his own glory in grace. Ephesians chapter one. Our redemption accomplished on
Calvary's cross 2,000 years ago is all of grace. We didn't do
anything to make any contribution to that. It was all free, it
was all sovereign. It was God doing a work and offering
himself to his father to accomplish the salvation of his people.
And the Lord said, everything that pertaineth, everything that
pertaineth to glory and virtue, everything that pertaineth to
life and godliness, I provided it by faith, through the righteousness
of Christ, by grace." One day, we found ourselves irresistibly
believing the gospel. And ever since that day, We've
not been able to not believe the gospel. Often as we turn away and look
for hope and comfort and peace and satisfaction and happiness
everywhere else, we can't find it. Can't find it. And the Lord keeps us by his
grace, doesn't he? He regenerated us by grace. knocked
us off our high horse and spoke to us from heaven and shined
a light, caused us who were at enmity with God to say with Saul
of Tarsus, Lord, what would you have me to do? What would you
have me to do? Lord, that's a work of grace
in the heart. And our sanctification is all
of grace. This idea that God's done his
part now and now we have to do our part in order to somehow
become more holy and more righteous and more sanctified. No, no,
it's all of grace. He that sanctifyeth and they
that are sanctified are all as one. He hath sanctified us and
he keeps sanctifying us, setting us apart and making us holy. It's all of grace. No contribution
on our part. One day, Lord's gonna send one of his
angels for each one of us, each and every one of us. He's gonna translate us, give us a glorified body. We're
gonna be ushered into his presence, into his glory. That's gonna
be all of grace. All of grace. Singing with shouting,
grace, grace unto it. Oh, Zerubbabel, the foundation
that he laid, he's going to finish it. That's what the rest of that
passage over there in Zacharias says. What he started, he's going
to finish. Peace. I've got to have peace
with God. How am I going to have peace
with God? Somebody else is going to have to make peace for me. I
don't have an offering that I can bring that will recommend me
or give me a standing before God or enable me to have peace
with God. So the Prince of Peace, the Lord
Jesus Christ, my peace I leave you, my peace I give unto you,
not as the world giveth. We have peace with God through
the Lord Jesus Christ. What a miracle. Everything that
pertaineth. to glory and virtue, everything
that pertaineth to life and godliness, I have provided it. The faith
that you need, the righteousness that you need, the grace that you need, the
peace that you need, to take one who is an enemy of God and
reconcile them, hmm, Take those who are by nature
trying to earn their way to heaven by working and make them rest
in Christ. Take those who are trying and
trying and trying and give them faith to trust. Turn our swords into plowshares
and our spears into pruning forks. Cause us to lay down our weapons,
bow, believe, Ephesians chapter two says, we
were by nature, children of wrath, even as others, but God. But God who is rich in mercy
for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were
dead in our trespasses and sins has quickened us together in Christ Jesus and set us in heavenly
places. For by grace are you saved through
faith and that not of yourself. Everything you and I need, everything, God's provided by
his divine power. And none of it can we provide
for ourselves. And what sweet moments the believer
has when he's able to rest in faith in Christ and experience
not only having peace with God, but experience the peace of God. Rest for his soul, hope, comfort. That's of God. Oh, let the world, let the world
whistle through the graveyard all they want and speak of peace, peace, but they have no
peace. The power of positive thinking
doesn't get peace. Now those are just liars who
are trying to convince themselves of something that is not true. God gives peace, it's hope. And notice also in verse two,
grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge
of God. This is life eternal that they
might know thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou
has sent. Does this knowledge involve things
about God? Certainly it does. The knowledge
of him being sovereign, the knowledge of him being omnipotent,
all-powerful. The knowledge of Him being immutable,
He never changes. The knowledge of Him being eternal
and holy. We know God not because we simply
know things about God, but because we're able to approach Him. We're
able to approach Him on the basis of who He is. That's what our Lord said, my
yoke is easy, my burden is light, come learn of me. I'll give you
rest for your soul. And so we know things about God. We know that He's holy. But we
know that the Lord Jesus Christ satisfied the just demands of
God's holiness by putting away our sin. And we're able to come
before the throne of grace with boldness in the person of our
Savior, knowing Him, able to approach His holy presence. What Phillips say, Show us the
Father and it sufficeth us. Oh, Philip, have I been with
you so long that you don't know if you've seen me, you've seen
the Father? For I and the Father are one. We come to God in the person
of our Savior. We experience His grace, His
love, His peace, Faith, hope. And the sixth thing is we spent
a whole Wednesday night on this a couple of weeks ago, exceeding
great and precious promises. We believe God. We believe God. Where'd we get that from? How
come all of a sudden the Bible became a living word? It wasn't just words on a page,
it wasn't just a book, it wasn't just something to be put on the
coffee table like I grew up with. We had a great big family Bible
on the coffee table. Every once in a while I'd open
up and look at the pictures in it. Or later after that, you
know, went to seminary and studied the Bible for its theological
benefits and historical views and practical applications. And then all of a sudden one
day, the Bible became a book of Christ and the person of the
Lord Jesus Christ jumped out on every page. Where'd that come
from? The great and precious exceeding
promises of God given to us. He's faithful to keep his promises. We have a more sure word of prophecy. We rest all the hopes of our
immortal soul on what God has said and what he's done and what
he's revealed. And finally, He's made us to
be partakers of the divine nature. This word partaker means to have
in common or fellowship with. We dealt with this a couple of
Wednesday nights ago. We don't look within ourselves
to find something divine. Don't look in your heart trying
to find a divine nature. We have to look outside of ourselves
for that. But we have fellowship with God,
we have union with Christ. We have the hope of knowing that
as He is, so are we right now in this world. And this is our
hope in the day of judgment. We have His Holy Spirit, the
Holy Spirit which has converted us and taught us and convicted
us and kept us and the Spirit of God. Oh, what a blessed thing
it is to have the Holy Spirit to teach you and to show you
and to keep you and to comfort you and point you to Christ. John calls it an unction. We'll
close with just turn over a couple of pages to your right to 1 John
2. 1 John 2. Look at verse 20. But you have an unction,
an inward moving, an inward power, an inward grace, It's always
there. Oh, we quench the Spirit of God. We grieve. The Spirits, the Scriptures
speak of quenching God's Spirit and grieving God's Spirit. He's
a person. And we can do that with our sin. But he doesn't
leave us to ourselves. It is his grief and the putting
out of his fire that causes us to cry out more for him, isn't
it? You have an unction from the
Holy One and you know all things. I have not written unto you because
you know not the truth, but because you know it and that no lie is
of the truth. Here's what it means to be a
partaker of the divine nature. We believe everything that God
has revealed about the glorious person and
work of the Lord Jesus Christ. And our hope in the day of judgment
is that as he is, so are we. everything, everything that pertaineth to
glory and virtue, everything you need in this life and in
the life to come. He has provided by his divine
power. Our Heavenly Father, thank you
for your divine power of grace Lord, pray that your Holy Spirit
would make live the truth of what you've said and what we've
heard tonight. Cause us to find our hope and
comfort in Christ. For it's in his name we pray,
amen. 125, let's stand together. I hear the Savior say, Thy strength
indeed is small. Child of weakness, watch and
pray. Find in me thine all in all. Jesus paid it all. ? All to him I owe ? Sin had
left a crimson stain ? He washed it white as snow ? Lord now indeed
I find ? Thy power and thine alone ? Can change the leper's
spots ? And melt the heart of stone Jesus paid it all, all
to Him I owe. Sid had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow. For nothing good have I Whereby
thy grace to claim I'll wash my garments white In the blood
of Calvary's Lamb Jesus paid it all All to Him I owe. Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow. And when before the throne I
stand in Him complete, Jesus died my soul to save, my lips
shall still repeat, Jesus paid it all, all to Him I owe. Sin had left a crimson stain. He washed it white as snow.
