Will you turn with me to 1 Corinthians
15? That was a good scripture to
go with our text this morning. 1 Corinthians 15. I want to begin
reading in verse 15. I'm sorry, in verse 24. 1 Corinthians 15, 24. We read
here, Then cometh the end. Then cometh the end. when he, speaking of Christ,
shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father, when
he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power,
for he must reign till he hath put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be
destroyed is death, for he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith, All things
are put under him, it is manifest that he is accepted which did
put all things under him. And when all things shall be
subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject
unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all
and in all." Today we're going to be observing the Lord's table
as the Lord commanded His believing people And by that I mean our
Lord said, this do in remembrance of me. We're going to remember
with this broken bread our Lord's broken body, which was broken
for us who believe on Him and rest all our hope in Him by His
grace. That's what He broke His body
for. And then we're going to take this glass of wine and we're
going to remember His shed blood, which He shed to remit the sins
of His people, which He shed to give us forgiveness of sins,
that blood by which the whole everlasting covenant of grace
is fulfilled. And as we do this, He said, we're
going to be showing forth His death. We're going to show a
visible picture to everybody that watches. We're going to
take a whole piece of bread which Christ, when He went to that
cross, there was the whole body of His people in Him. And we're
going to pass this bread out and we're each going to put our
hand to that bread. We all had a hand in crucifying Him and
breaking that body. And we're going to all break
that piece of bread. When you do it, it's going to sound like
a whip on His back. And we're going to show forth
a picture of His death, His broken body and His shed blood. But
something else we're going to do is, it says we're going to
show forth His death till He come. You see, we're looking
for our Savior to return. We're looking for Him to come
again. And that's the subject that Paul's been dealing with
here in this 15th chapter of Corinthians. He's been saying
that Christ shall come again. He is the resurrection. He is
the life. When He comes again, He's going
to raise all men to judgment. Everybody's going to be raised
and they're going to stand in judgment. And then Christ is
going to bring all His ransomed people to a glorious end. Then cometh the end. I want to know what that is.
Then cometh the end. When Christ comes again, everything
that God determined to be done before or in the beginning, everything
that He determined the end from the beginning and everything
He determined from the beginning will have been completed. And
then comes the end. When He comes, everything God
predestinated by His grace to transpire shall have all come
to pass by the sovereign hand of God. Everything. Not one thing
will be out of order. And it will all have come to
pass exactly according to God's predestinated order and purpose. And then comes the end. When
the resurrection is complete and judgment is over, then cometh
the end. That's our subject, the end.
It's called in scripture the times of the restitution of all
things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy
prophets since the world began. God's been declaring the end
from the beginning. It's called the dispensation of the fullness
of times. When time is full. When it's
complete. So that time's no more. Then
he says he's going to gather together in one all things in
Christ, things which are in heaven, things which are on earth, even
in Christ. And here's what I want you to
get. One thing. In the end, everything will glorify
God. Everything. Everything. The man who stomped and kicked
and hated it all his life is going to glorify God. Every evil,
every wickedness, every evil act is going to glorify God.
Every person, everything, everything is going to glorify God. Everything. And I want to show
you three things now. The Lord Jesus Christ must reign
until the end comes. He must reign. Then number two,
when the end comes, Christ shall deliver up the kingdom to God
the Father. And then thirdly, I want to show
you the end, the very end of everything. Now first of all,
the Lord Jesus must reign until the end comes. It says in verse
25, He must reign till He hath put all enemies under His feet. The last enemy that shall be
destroyed is death. And it says, Therefore He hath
put all things under His feet. Christ Jesus, the God-man, The
mediator between God and His people must reign. It's not a possibility. It's
as much not a possibility as the fact that He had to go to
the cross. He said, I must be lifted up.
That wasn't a possibility. He must be lifted up. And also,
He must reign. He must reign. He must reign
because Jesus Christ is God. And that's all God does, is reign.
He reigns. You see, the essence of being
God is He reigns absolutely in full control over every minute
detail. From the least to the greatest,
He reigns in full control over everything. The wrath of man
shall praise God. The remainder thereof, He'll
restrain it. That's the Scripture. That's
a powerful God. You see, if a man's God is not
sovereign over everything, ruling and reigning over everything,
especially every single detail of salvation, that person is
not worshipping the true and living God. It's just that simple. It's just that simple. You heard
the story of the little boy who sat and listened to the preacher
say, let God save you, let God save you, let God save you. And
his mother afterwards trying to convict him, you know, saying,
don't, aren't you afraid of that God? You need to let Him save
you. And he said, no, not really.
And he said, why aren't you afraid of Him? And he said, well, if
I have to let Him take me to heaven, I'm just not going to let Him
take me to hell. And that kind of God is helpless. That little boy is right. But
that's not our God. The psalmist said our God's in
the heavens. He's done whatsoever He pleased. Whatever He pleased. The scripture says our God does
whatsoever He pleased in heaven, in earth, in the seas, and all
deep places. There's places in the seas you
and I have never even been to. We've been further into space
than we've been into the ocean. There's places on this earth
we've never been to. And do you know that God's ruling everything
that's taking place there where you've never been and I've never
been? Just as He pleases. You see, when the man starts
boasting of free will and all that, a man's delusional that
does that. Are you honestly, can you honestly tell me you
get everything you will to have? Honestly, do you? That's what
a free will is, that you get everything you want, when you
want it. Can you do that? No. I can't
either. But God does. That's the one
who has a free will. God does. And He does what He
will. Our Redeemer must reign, not
only because He's God, He must reign because He's our King.
And a King reigns. That's what He does. He was born
the King. Those wise men came, and they
said, where's He that's born King? We've come to bow down
and worship Him. That's what you do to a King.
Because He's sovereign. You come and bow down and worship
Him. He must reign because He's the King, always been the King.
He must reign because His dominion is the reward of His obedience.
In eternity, God the Son agreed in a covenant to save a people
that God gave to Him. He agreed when the time was come,
the time was set by God, and He agreed when that time was
come, He would come down and take flesh like His brethren,
and be made under the law, and redeem all His people from under
the curse of the law. He'd do it to glorify God, to
uphold His law, His honor, His glory, and to save His people.
And when the time came, the Lord Jesus Christ did just what He
promised. He came into this earth to save
His people, to be our mediator and our surety and our representative
and our substitute. Our Lord and our Savior, that's
what He came for. And He accomplished everything
He came to accomplish. He put away sin by the sacrifice
of Himself. He purged the sins of His people.
He justified His people. He brought in everlasting righteousness
for His people. He reconciled His people to God.
You know, if you had a man that was in prison and the courts
ruled and they said, this man that's in this prison is absolutely
not guilty, can't be charged with this crime ever again. We
have to drop his charges. He can't be charged with this
ever again. It would be double jeopardy. Somebody's got to go
let that man out of jail because he don't know it. He's in jail. And that warden that is in control
of that jail and has the power over that jail, who knows that
man is free, is not going to be just if he doesn't let him
out. Christ is the one who is in full control over the jail.
And He has justified His people, He has redeemed His people, they
can't be charged ever again, and He is going to see to it
that every one of them is freed out of that prison cell of our
nature, our sin nature, and brought to give the will to bow and trust
Him. You see, He must reign to do
this because He fulfilled everything that He told the Father He would
do. He said, Father, I finished the work. I did it. And so, He
must do it. God said, Ask of Me, I'll give
you the heathen for your inheritance. And so, by His obedience unto
death, He earned the right to reign over everything. He must
reign. God won't be just if He don't
give Him the reigns. So, to this end, He died and
rose and revived that He might be Lord, both of the dead and
the living. Whenever God raised Him from
the dead, Ephesians 1.20 says, He raised Him up and set Him
at His own right hand in heavenly places far above all principality
and power and dominion and might and every name that's named in
this earth. and in that which is to come."
Not just in this world, in that world to come. He's the head
over all. And He says, and He put all things under His feet. Our text says the reason He must
reign, because He has put all things under His feet. He's victorious,
that's why He must reign. He's put all things under His
feet and He's made Him the head over all things to His body. Is your head reigning over your
body? I hope so. If your head's reigning
over your body, your head's filling your body. It's giving your body
everything it needs. And He's the head over the church,
which is His body, who filleth all in all. He's the one who
reigns to fill all in all His people. He must reign. God should
put everything under His feet. He must reign because the salvation
of God's elect and the glory of God depend on it. As I said,
all His people must be released from prison because God's just. Just as God required Christ to
go to the cross to redeem His people and reconcile His people,
God requires that gospel be brought to His people now and they be
freed from our sin nature in order for God to be just. So
yeah, He has to reign in the hearts of His people. You see,
man likes to take this message and twist it a little bit so
it puts it in your hands and says, now, He's going to be your
Savior if you make this work all effectual. What I'm telling
you is what the Bible tells you. He makes the work effectual.
He don't need you to make it effectual. You can't make it
effectual. I can't make it effectual. He reigns. He must reign. He
must reign. He must reign because He said,
Thou has given me power over all flesh. Thou shalt give eternal
life to as many as Thou has given me. And He must do that. He must do that. This is life
eternal that they might know Thee, the only true God, and
Jesus Christ whom Thou sent. If He's going to give us life,
He's got to give us an understanding of who God is and who He is.
And He said, And I finished the work you gave Me to do. So He
must reign. He must do this work and call
out His people. And he must reign for this reason,
too. Ain't nobody going to stop him.
He has to reign because nobody's going to stop him. He must reign.
Nobody's going to stop him. When I see times like we're in
right now, this is the most comforting news you could ever tell me.
I was talking to my father-in-law last night, and he said what
I know every one of us have thought in our heart. Out of the millions
of people we got in this country, is Hillary Clinton and Donald
Trump the best we could do? Honestly, is that the best we
could do? But you know what? God's putting
His person there, whoever it is. He's going to bring His will
to pass. We can rest in that. We can rest
in that. Right now, all rule is under
His power. He's put everything under His
feet. And He shall put down all rule and all authority and power,
for He must reign till He's put all enemies under His feet. Now
all those that He redeemed, they're going to be put under His feet.
Everybody He redeemed, they're going to be put under His feet.
It's said though He's going to put all His enemies under His
feet. How do we come into this world? Colossians says we come
into this world enemies in our minds by wicked works. We come
into this world enemies of God. If it wasn't for Christ making
us bow to Him and trust Him, we would never do it. But He's
going to reign and He's going to effectually accomplish that
in the hearts of His people. Why? Scripture says this man,
after he offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down from
henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool,
because by one offering he's perfected them forever that are
being sanctified. Every one of them he's calling
out right now. He's calling them out because
he perfected them on the cross. And he's got to call them out.
They've got to be made his footstool. And also, everybody that He does
not call out by grace, it's not because He can't, it's just because
He wasn't sent to do it. But those He does not call out
by His grace, guess what He's going to make them do? He's going
to make them bow. And they're going to glorify
Him too. Philippians 2, 9 says, God highly exalted Him and gave
Him a name over every name. that at the name of Jesus every
knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess in heaven and earth
and under the earth. Every knee is going to bow and
every tongue is going to confess that He is the Lord of lords
and the King of kings to the praise and glory of God. Every mouth is going to say that.
Even His enemies that He doesn't make to bow in this life. They
are going to all say it. Now get this believer. Now be
sure to get this. When He puts all our enemies
under His feet, He's putting all our enemies under our feet.
That's what the Scripture means when it says we're more than
conquerors through Him that loved us. What are the enemies that
we need Him to put under our feet for us? Sin. He's going
to put sin under His feet. He's done it for His people.
He's finished that work for His people. And then He's going to
put Satan under our feet. He's going to crush Satan under
your feet shortly. He put him on a mighty short
leash right now. But He's going to crush him under
our feet shortly. And then He's going to put all this world under
our feet shortly. Very shortly. And the last enemy,
it says in verse 26, the last enemy that should be destroyed
is death. His death. Now He's destroyed
death for us in some ways already. You know, when we saw this Thursday
night in Adam, when Adam broke that one law in the garden, we
broke the law in the garden. There was no law from Adam to
Moses. They didn't have an express written command to break and
sin. And God won't charge sin to anybody. He will not impute sin to anybody
unless you've broken an express command. The Lord does not impute
sin where there is no law. Nevertheless, death reigned from
Adam to Moses. What does that tell you? We broke
the law in Adam. God's just to impute sin to us
because we broke the law in Adam. We became sin in Adam. We died
in Adam. So that's judicially. Under the
judgment of the law, we died. And we died spiritually. We were
born spiritually dead. We died spiritually. Well, Christ
came and He's made His people righteous, and He's calling out
His people, making us holy, giving us life inwardly, so He conquers
that death for us. That judicial and spiritual death,
He conquers it for us. We've got to have Him to conquer
it. Not only that, He's going to conquer physical death. We're going to die physically,
but that's because this body of flesh has got to go back to
the dust. God said that's a curse. And He is not going to raise
this same body. He is going to raise a new body, incorruptible. We are going to see that next
time in this passage. He is going to raise this incorruptible,
a glorified body. So He is going to conquer physical
death. Our spirit is going to be with Him immediately, but
we are going to raise incorruptible in flesh. And then He is going
to conquer the second death for us. He said those that have partaken
of the first resurrection, they won't encounter the second death.
Because He conquered judicial death for us, and because He
conquered spiritual death within us, giving us life and regeneration
in life, and brought us to faith in Christ, that second death,
that worm that never dies, that hell that we would have to bear
otherwise will have no part, nothing to lay claim to us because
He conquered it for us. The last enemy that will be destroyed
is death. They are going to bring us out
of that grave at last. The last thing to do, bring us
out of that grave and death will be done. for us, for His people. So aren't you glad, brethren?
Is that different than the God you hear most people pray? This little weak God, who wants
to trust a little weak God? I want a God who's God, don't
you? I want a God who does what He
says He'll do. And I can depend on Him. That's
the God we worship. That's the God of the Bible.
Now secondly, when the end comes now, The Lord is going to deliver
up the kingdom unto God the Father. He says there in verse 24, Then
cometh the end when He shall have delivered up the kingdom
to God, even the Father, when He shall have put down all rule
and all authority and power. Verse 28 says, And when all things
shall be subdued unto Him, then shall the Son also Himself be
subject unto Him that put all things under Him. Now I've heard
a lot of things preached from that verse 28. A lot of wrong
things. A lot of wrong things. If a Jehovah's
Witness comes to your door, this is going to be one of the main
verses he goes to, because they are going to tell you that Jesus
Christ is not God. That's not what this is saying.
Not what it's saying. Let me tell you what it's not
saying. It's not saying Christ is not God. In the beginning
was the Word, and the Word was with God. And the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and
dwelt among us. And we beheld His glory, the
glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace
and truth. That One who walked this earth is God. God. One with God the Father, God
the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. So it doesn't mean that He's
not God. And it doesn't mean that He's in any way inferior
to the Father or the Holy Spirit. He said there are three that
bear record in heaven. The Father, the Word, and the
Holy Ghost. And these three are one. He won
with them. It doesn't mean that. And it
doesn't mean that Christ is going to cease being the prophet, priest,
and king of His people. It doesn't mean that. The Lord said unto the Son, He
saith, Thy throne, O God, is a scepter, is forever and ever. A scepter of righteousness is
the scepter of Thy kingdom forever. So it doesn't mean that. What
does it mean then? Well, verse 24 explains verse
28. It simply means He's going to deliver up the kingdom to
the Father. That's what it means. Let me explain it to you this
way. When all the work is accomplished, I've been talking about, when
the end comes, this loyal subject. He says, then shall the son be
subject to him. This loyal subject, this loyal
servant who humbled himself and took upon him the form of a servant
to bring all God's people to glory with God. He's going to
at last stand there, this shepherd is going to stand there and he's
going to present all his sheep to God. This shepherd, this savior
is going to bring all the church that he saved. This elder brother,
this son of God is going to bring all his brethren that God sent
him to save. This king is going to bring all
his kingdom to God. That's what he was sent to do
as the mediator. Christ loved the church, it said,
and He gave Himself for it, that He might sanctify it and wash
it with water by the Word, that He might present it to Himself. That's what's being said there.
This is Him presenting the church to Himself, not having spot or
wrinkle or any such thing, but that it should be holy and without
blemish. In the end, God's servant is
going to stand before God the Father. You just think about
this. What are you and me going to
be doing then? Huh? Are we going to be boasting about
our works? Are we going to be saying we deserve something?
We are going to be quiet. Just like we are in the rest
of salvation. And watch Christ work. And Christ is going to
present all His people to the Father. And He is going to stand
there and He is going to say, Father, behold, I and the children
whom Thou gavest unto me." Here they are. Of all those You gave
to me, Father, I have lost none of them. Here they are. I've
put away their sin. I've made them righteous. I've
made them holy. I've put down all their enemies.
I've accomplished all the law and the prophets for You. I've
fulfilled every promise You made in the covenant of grace. I've
shed my blood. I've broken my body. Here I am,
Lord, and here they are. Spotless, unreprovable, unrebukable
in your sight. Look at them, Lord. You can't
lay a charge to them. There's nothing they can be laid
to their charge. Here they are. You wanted them
perfect. You wanted them conformed to
my image. You wanted them one with us, Father. Here they are.
One with us. everything that God sent Him
to do. He's going to stand there and He's going to say, I've done
it all, Father. And He's going to say, now, Father, I will.
Now, He can say, I will. You and I can't say, Father,
I will. No, we can't say that. He can say, Father, I will. That
these whom Thou has given me be with me where I am, that they
might behold my glory as You loved me before the foundation
of the world. I want them to see all our glory. And God's going to say to Christ,
to His Son, and to all His people that Christ presents to His Son,
He's going to say to us in Christ what He says to Christ. Well
done, my good and my faithful servant. Well done. Well done. Now brethren, any man I don't
care who he is. Anybody that would fight against
that good news, you got to say he's insane. That's the only
reason you give. A man that's given a right mind
by God don't fight against that. When God's turned things right
side up from you turning them upside down, you won't fight
against that. That's good news. Christ is not
going to lose one that the Father gave Him. He's going to get all
the glory and He's going to save all His people. Now, here's the
end. Here's the end. I love... I don't love it. I feel sorry
for them, but... When you listen to men tell you
what the reason for life is, and what the purpose of life
is, and what we're here for, and they wax so philosophical,
and they come up with the most ingenious things they can come
up with in philosophy. All you can do is say, that's
the most absurd, ignorant thing I've ever heard in my life. I
don't care who they are. I don't care how men appraise
them and exalt them. You just sit back and go, that
is absurd. Why? Because I know the end. I know
the end. I know the reason God made the
first grain of sand. I know the reason God created
everything that was created. I know the reason that God let
man fall into sin. I know the reason that God sent
His Son into this world. I know the reason that God's
ruled everything throughout all time and won't stop till the
end. I know the reason. I know the end purpose that God
determined from the beginning. Here it is. 1 Corinthians 15.28 seven little words at the end
of verse 28, that God may be all in all. That's the reason. In the end, the triune God, God
the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, in the bodily
person of the Lord Jesus Christ, shall be all in all his people." He's going to be all in all who
are in hell. He's going to be all justice.
All punishment will be Him. He'll be the glory of all justice
and all punishment. People in hell will know Him
perfectly. Perfectly. Wouldn't that be the hell of
hell to know God perfectly and all the bliss that God gives
to His people perfectly? And no, you rejected that. But in His people, He's going
to be all in and all. And that day, the glorified God-man
is going to continue forever. That's the only way we see God.
He's the express image of God in a body. And we're going to
see Him. We're going to see Him. The only evidence of our fall
in heaven will be one thing, the nail press in His hand. Didn't
He tell them, touch me and fill me? Didn't He sit down and eat
with them? And then didn't they watch Him
arise up into heaven? It's not just some fluffy folks
floating around on clouds. There's a real heaven and earth.
And Christ be there with His people. And we'll see God, the
triune God, in Him. He's the fullness of the Godhead
bodily. And here's the end. This is the
purpose. We're going to see Him. Ephesians 1.12 says, this is
the purpose for which He did all this and saves His people,
that we should be to the praise of the glory of God who first
trusted Christ. You know what we're going to
do for eternity? We're going to praise God our
Father for putting the whole work in the hand of Christ. We're
going to glorify God our Father, who from the beginning trusted
Christ to work this whole work out for His people. We're going
to praise Him. That's what it was all about. That's what the
whole thing was for. And then, also it says this,
He's raised us up in heavenly places and made us sit together
in Him, and then we're going to be there perfectly doing that. Why? That, it says that, In the
ages to come, eternity upon eternity upon eternity, in the ages to
come, He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness
toward us through Christ Jesus. You have to hear the gospel preached
through me now. I feel so sorry for you. That's terrible. It's God's will, it's God's grace,
but man, I hate that you have to hear me preach. But I'm telling
you this, one day, He's going to declare for eternity to us
the exceeding riches of His grace in Christ Jesus forever and ever
and ever. And we're going to know it so
fully and so clearly and so well. And that's the reason He did
it. And we're going to see He's all. And He's in all. And in
that day, I don't get this now, I don't understand this. I just
don't understand this. I've never experienced it. I
don't understand it. I've experienced the taste of it. But in that
day, He's going to fully be all to us. All our food and our clothing
and our shelter is going to be our God. You know, wouldn't it
be good if you didn't have to bite and crawl and fight and
sweat under the curse right now for your living, for your food
and your clothing and your shelter? You won't then. He'll be all
freely provided for you by Him. And He's going to be our life
and our joy and our peace and our glory and our satisfaction. We have so many sinful things
that we think is satisfaction and joy that is not even in the
ballpark. When we know Christ perfectly
and have no sin, He's going to be all our life and our joy and
our satisfaction forever. And He's going to be all our
sun and our moon and our light. That's what Revelation said.
All the sun and the moon and the light will be Him. All light
will be Him. Nothing to take away from His
glory. You know right now, you see a beautiful moonscape or
a beautiful sunset and boy, you just look at that. There's just
one we're going to be looking at there. And you think you've
seen pretty sunsets. Wait till that sun sets down
in front of you. You're going to say, that's a pretty sunset
right there. When you see Him. And He's going to be all things. He's going to be all in all things.
He's going to be all in all His people. He's going to be all
in all our praises. And all the praises of His angels
forever. All in all. Now sinner, You sitting
here never believed on Christ. Would you enjoy all this with
us? This is a sure thing for those who trust Christ. It's
a sure thing for those that God brought by His grace to rely
on Christ. It's a sure thing. There are no maybes about this.
I pray God to give you grace to lay hold of Christ. Believe
on Him. What you see now is not real.
Nothing here is real. Time is not. Time is just temporary. We think time is the end-all
be-all of everything. Do you realize time is temporary?
You got this little blip right here in this space of eternity
that's called time, that God made and put us in, and it's
just almost filled up. And when it's filled up, it's
just going to burst like a bubble and it's done. God's done with
it. He did it to manifest His glory and to bring us to something
bigger. You say, I don't understand that. You don't want a God you
can understand. That's the foolish thing in the world. You'd be
God if you could understand Him. I want a God I can't understand.
I don't want a God that's carved out in my imagination. I want
God that I understand in all of us. I can't wait to see that. That's the real thing. That's
what we're put here for. The only reason he's here now
is because he's got some more people he's going to bring to
hear it. I labor to preach and come here to preach and I walk
around with this burden on me all the time because I want you,
who I'm given the responsibility to preach to week in and week
out, I want you to hear and believe Christ. That's what I want. So I'm telling you, I'll tell
you of His judgment to try to persuade you. I'll tell you of
His redemption to try to persuade you. I'll tell you of His regenerating
work to try to persuade you. And today I'm telling you what
it's going to be like in the end to try to persuade you. I'm always
telling you about Him. And one day, I'll pray. Those
of you that know Him, that He's called out since I've been here.
He's done it through this message. He's just grabbed you and said,
you're one of Mine. Come on. And you came with Him. Delighted
to do so. But believer, now let me tell
you this too, for me and you. This is the end of our life.
This is why we're here. And for us, all this stuff's
not real. You know, what really is keeping
us from being with God's people? What's keeping us near God's
people? Give me one good reason. In light of what I've been telling
you today, give me one that measures up to this. Can you? Not a one. What's keeping us
from just saying, Lord, I know you're going to provide everything.
He said, try me. Test me. Throw it out there and
give sacrificially until it hurts and just see if I don't provide
and bless it and make it good. You do it for His glory, for
His gospel, for Christ, for the firmness of His gospel, I guarantee
you God's going to provide. I'm standing here in front of
you proving it. I've never wanted for a thing. We moved in that
house over there on 7 Burt Street. We didn't have a dime. Spent
it all. We don't have no savings. It's
gone. Moved in over there. Needed some appliances. Don't
have no appliances. I walk out in the mailbox, open
the mailbox, there's a check for exactly what we need to go
buy the appliances. We went and bought the appliances.
Why didn't you put that in the bank and save it? I said, I'm
going to provide for you today. I'm going to give you grace for
today. Don't worry about tomorrow, I'm going to give it to you today.
I believe He will. I really believe He will. I really
believe He will. We're here to further His gospel
and preach Him. Because this is the end we're
coming to. And I'm ready to get there. Are you? When the last
one's called out, then cometh the end. That ought to make us
just say, I'm going to go out and shout this from the rooftop.
Spare no expense. Get it out there. Let people
hear it. Because I'm ready to go. That's how he's going to do it.
And he's going to do it. Brethren, the time is short.
It remaineth that both they that have wives be as though they
had none, they that weep as though they wept not, they that rejoice
as though they rejoiced not, they that buy as though they
possessed not, they that use this world as not abusing it,
for the fashion of this world is passing away." And then it
comes in. We're here for Christ, that's
it. Make us know that, Lord. Now let's observe His table. Alright, Brother Kevin.
