Chapter 11, Exodus 11. Title of the message, THE LAST
PLAGUE IS THE DEATH OF THE FIRSTBORN. THE LAST PLAGUE IS DEATH, and
we'll shorten it up for you. THE LAST PLAGUE IS DEATH. THE
DEATH OF THE FIRSTBORN. The Word of God says in Romans
6, for the wages of sin is death, and Almighty God is about to
pay up right now to Pharaoh. But this also, you know I have
mentioned the gods that the Egyptians worshipped, and this was the
blow to the god called Ra. HE WAS A SON GOD, THE GIVER OF
LIFE. HE'S THE GIVER OF LIFE AND GOD'S
GONNA SHOW THEM THAT THEIR GOD HAS NO POWER OVER LIFE AND DEATH. ONLY GOD HAS THAT POWER OVER
LIFE AND DEATH. GOD HAS ALREADY SENT NINE PLAGUES
UPON EGYPT, EACH ONE INCREASING IN INTENSITY, BUT PHARAOH'S HEART,
HIS HEART REMAINED Hardened, this is a real example of the
human heart. Unless God, by His grace, gives
us a new heart, we will not repent. Nine times, nine times God gave
Pharaoh space to repent, didn't He? Nine times. And every time
he turned, every time he hardened his So here in Exodus 11, God prepares
to strike the final blow that will break Pharaoh's resistance. And this chapter is a sobering
reminder of God's power, of God's justice, and of God's mercy. We'll see God's mercy on Israel
here in the next chapter. But one of the first things we
see in verse 1 is God's sovereign purpose revealed in judgment
and in redemption. We're going to see it revealed
in judgment and redemption. He says here, Yet will I bring
one plague more, one more plague, and after this He will let you
go. And in this last plague, our
redemption is revealed, the death of the firstborn, the substitute
that He will show us in chapter 12. And what was a plague to
Egypt is salvation to God's elect. It's salvation to God's elect
and the death of that firstborn. We'll see this later on. was given back in chapter 4.
Look back in chapter 4. I want you to look in verse 23.
This is God speaking. Look in verse
22, And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel is
my son, even my firstborn. And I say unto thee, let my son
go, that he may serve me. And if thou refuse to let him
go, behold, I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn." All the
way back in chapter four, God told him what he was going to
do. If you don't let Israel go, he said, my son Israel, if you
don't let him go, I'm going to kill your firstborn. That warning
was given back in the beginning when God first began to speak
to him. And God s good for His Word. God is good for His Word. Look into the Word of God, read
the Word of God, He will do exactly as He has said. He s good for
His Word. And in all these plagues, God
demonstrates His POWER over all things and all persons. We ve seen this plague after
plague. We ve seen the POWER of God We've seen God's power
over the natural world. We've seen God's power over all
persons. We've seen God's power over all
the false gods of Egypt. They've all failed, haven't they?
Every one of them failed. You know why they failed? Because
they don't exist. They don't exist. If a god doesn't
exist, he's not going to be able to do anything, is he? That's
why they failed, they don't exist. And then God's sovereignty is
revealed in life and death. God says who lives, now listen,
He says who lives and who's going to die today, every day. But now God's the one who says,
not the doctor, you know doctors, they've been trying to put me
on cholesterol medicine for the last four or five years, whatever,
because they think it'll make me live longer. Now I'm not,
well I'm not stupid, but I might be. But at the same time, God
says who lives and who dies. I can take medicine and maybe
treat the symptoms, but now God says who's gonna live and who's
gonna die today. I don't care how healthy you might be. You
may go home and die in an accident. It won't be an accident that
you died, but you might die in an accident. God says who lives
and who dies and He demonstrates this in this in this last plague. And this final plague is not
an act of anger and frustration on God's part, it is divinely
purposed of God. He said from the beginning I'm
going to show my power in you and here we are what four thousand
years later roughly And we're still reading it. We're still
reading about God's power over Pharaoh in Egypt and what he
did. And it's very real to us who
believe. This story is very real. It lives with me. It lives. It's got power. I'll read that
and I see a reason to bow down and worship the Lord. Because
there is no other one. He's the only one there is. God's divine purpose is here
and then this is instructive to God's people. We learn and
we bow. We learn and we bow. And this last plague is one that
no one can come back from. No one. You can break a leg and
go to the hospital, They'll set it, put a cast on it, and you
can come back. You can come right back. You
die, you ain't coming back. Nobody comes back from death.
Nobody. That's why everyone, and I'm
not talking about God's people, but everyone tries not to die. They try their best not to die.
Because they know something of the finality of it. They don't
know what's gonna happen after death. No one's come back and
talked to them about it. Except Jesus Christ. He has,
we got it right here in the Word. We have it in His Word. He tells
us about it. He's the one who told us about
that rich man in hell. He's the one who pulled the curtain
back and gave us a brief insight into that world. Just a brief
insight. He's the only one who's able
to do that. But no one can come back from
death. And I noticed this here, what was a trial for Israel? Nine plagues, nine plagues and
still in bondage. You reckon they got discouraged?
Nine plagues, God's gonna deliver you nine plagues later and they're
still in bondage. They're still in bondage. But
here's the lesson, here's the lesson. Let us trust God's time
and purpose for all things. God has a time and a purpose
for everything under heaven, everything, everything. And even
when delivered seems impossible, trust Him, trust Him, it's coming. He'll deliver us when it's time
to be delivered. And then the second thing we see here in verse
2 and 3 is God's provision for His people. Speak now in the
ears of the people and let every man borrow. Now that word borrow
really is request and even has the meaning of demand. That's
really a poor translation there. Because if you borrow something,
what are you going to do? You're going to give it back. They ain't going
to give it back, they ain't coming back. He's saying here, speak
now in the ears of the people, and this is a command of God.
They are going to do exactly what God said to do. SPEAK NOW
IN THE EARS OF THE PEOPLE, AND LET EVERY MAN REQUEST OF HIS
NEIGHBOR AND EVERY WOMAN OF HER NEIGHBOR JEWELS OF SILVER AND
JEWELS OF GOLD. AND THE LORD GAVE THE PEOPLE
FAVOR IN THE SIGHT OF THE EGYPTIANS. MOREOVER, THE MAN MOSES WAS VERY
GREAT IN THE LAND OF EGYPT, IN THE SIGHT OF PHARAOH'S SERVANTS,
AND IN THE SIGHT OF THE PEOPLE." The Israelites are instructed
to request the gold and the silver from the Egyptians. They did
what God said to do, and the Lord blessed them by giving them
favor with the people. And the Lord, listen, the Lord
will not send His people on a journey empty. He will not send them
out empty. Let me show you, I think it's
over in Genesis 15. Turn over to Genesis 15. I want
to show you how God fulfills His Word, if I've got the right
one written down. I want to show you how God fulfills His Word. Israel, they are God's covenant
people. Now you know God foretold that
they would go into bondage and they would be there for 400 years.
Look in verse 13, And He said unto Abram, Know of a surety
that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs.
and shall serve them, and they shall afflict them four hundred
years. And also that nation whom they shall serve will I judge,
and afterward they shall come out with great substance." God enriched
those Egyptians for Israel's sake. They were going to come
out with great substance. You see, the LORD will PROVIDE!
Just write that on your refrigerator, write it in every room in your
house. The LORD will PROVIDE! HE WILL PROVIDE! HE WILL PROVIDE
FOR THEIR JOURNEY THROUGH THE WILDERNESS AND THEIR REDEMPTION! HE IS GOING TO PROVIDE A LAMB! Isaac said, Here is the fire
and the wood, but where is the Lamb? Abraham said, THE LORD
WILL PROVIDE HIMSELF A LAMB! THE LORD WILL PROVIDE! ALL THINGS
BELONG TO GOD! EGYPTIAN MONEY IS THE LORD'S
MONEY! You know that? THE LORD OWNS
EVERY BANK ACCOUNT ON THIS EARTH. HE OWNS EVERYTHING. AND IF IT'S
HIS WILL TO GIVE IT TO YOU, YOU'RE GONNA GET IT. IT'LL BE GIVEN
TO YOU. THE LORD WILL GIVE YOU FAVOR
WITH SOMEBODY AND THEY'LL PROVIDE. HOW MANY TIMES HAS SOMEBODY BEEN
LAID ON YOUR HEART? SOMEBODY'S BEEN LAID ON YOUR
HEART AND YOU'VE GIVEN, SENT SOMETHING TO THEM, GIVEN TO THEM.
THE LORD DID THAT. The Lord did that. And here, listen, God gives them
favor in the eyes of the Egyptians. Not only is the heart of the
king in the hand of the Lord, but the heart of every person
on this earth is in the hand of the Lord. It says over in
Psalm 106 that He even made their enemies pity them. over Psalm
106 46, He made even their enemies who took Him captive to pity
them. He's the heart of every human
beings in the hands of the Lord and He motivates them, moves
them for your sake, for your sake, you who believe. And what we see in verse two
and three is God fulfilling His covenant promise that I read
to you there in Genesis that He made to Abraham. God's fulfilling
His covenant promise. And God's going to fulfill His
covenant promise to the Lord Jesus Christ right to the very
jot and tittle concerning us who believe, concerning all God's
elect. God's going to fulfill the covenant
promise that He's made to Jesus Christ. And here's something we need
to keep in mind. When God brings us out of this
world, when He brings us out of death and bondage, I want
you to see this, this thought crossed my mind yesterday. When
He brings us out of death and bondage, He equips us. He equips
us with faith, hope, and love for everything we need. He enriches
us. Boy, I tell you what, every one
of God's children are enriched. You have no idea how rich you
are. You have no idea how rich you
are. God has enriched us so much. I mean, material-wise, there's
nobody poor in here. There's nobody poor. God has enriched us, but spiritually,
spiritually, we have all we need. God provided everything. We don't
provide any of it. We don't provide any of it. The
children of Israel did not provide the silver and the gold. They
were poor. They were poor. They were slaves. But when they
went out, they were enriched. When we leave this world, we
are leaving this world enriched in the Lord Jesus Christ. Now it says here that God, that Moses, his reputation had
grown, he was very great, it says, he became very great. At
one time he wasn't, at one time they wanted to kill Moses, they
wanted to run him off. But I thought of Proverbs 16,
7, when a man's ways please the Lord, he makes even his enemies
to be at peace with him. There's another example of God
having control over the hearts of men and women. He made Moses
who was despised in the beginning to be very great. They feared
Moses. They knew whatever Moses said
would happen. Whenever Moses said, Thus saith
the Lord, those servants, even though Pharaoh hardened his heart,
those servants knew it was going to happen. They feared him. and
he became very great in their sight. But now thirdly, God declares
judgment. Look at verse 4 and 6. And Moses
said, Thus saith the LORD, About midnight will I go out into the
midst of Egypt. Will I go out? I'm not going
to send an angel out. God said, I'm going out. This is of God. I'm going to go out into the
midst of Egypt, and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die,
from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne,
even to the firstborn of the maiden-servant that is behind
the meal, and all the firstborn of the beast, even the animals.
The death of the first judgment, listen, judgment reaches the
highest and the lowest in Egypt. In every family, In every family
there is a firstborn. There's a firstborn in every
family. And so this is going to touch
every family. You know what struck me though? It's just a thought
that came to me this morning. You could be the secondborn and
go out and play in the street. He said the firstborn is going
to die. The firstborn, you can go play in the street for God
said the firstborn is going to die and God's good for His Word.
But I thought of this. Here's the thought that struck
me and it blessed me. I thought, thank God for the
death of the firstborn. Christ is called the firstborn.
He's the firstborn from the dead. I'm a secondborn. I'm free. I'm free. I think that works. I think it works. I'm free because
the firstborn died in my place. He took my place and I'm the
second born. But notice here, no household
is exempt, not even the beast. You see, God is no respecter
of persons. God's no respecter of persons.
And this one plague, now listen, the flies did not go to Egypt. I mean, they did not go into
Goshen. The locusts did not go into Goshen. Darkness, remember
the darkness? In Goshen there was light. But
now this one will reach Goshen. This one is going to reach Goshen. It is going to reach there. Death
comes to us all, for all have sinned and come short of the
glory of God. But God, like in Ephesians 2,
but God who is rich in mercy, BUT GOD PROVIDED A SUBSTITUTE
FOR HIS CHILDREN THAT WERE IN GOSHEN. THERE'S GOING TO BE DEATH
IN GOSHEN. THERE'S GOING TO BE BLOOD PUT
OVER THE DOOR AND THE SIDEPOST. THERE'S GOING TO BE DEATH. BUT IT'S GOING TO BE THE DEATH
OF A SUBSTITUTE. YOU SEE DEATH, THIS ONE REACHES EVEN INTO GOSHEN. BUT GOD PROVIDED A SUBSTITUTE.
he says there's going to be a very great cry there in verse 6 judgment's
devastating when God rises in judgment it's devastating listen
to revelation 6 16 and he said to the mountains and the rocks
fall on us this is the people crying because of the wrath of
the lamb and hide us, fall on us, and hide us from the face
of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb."
Turn over to Luke 13. When God rises in judgment, it'll
be devastating. In Luke 13, Let me go up and start reading
in verse 24 so you can keep it in context. WHEN ONCE THE MASTER OF THE HOUSE
HAS RISEN UP AND HAS SHUT TO THE DOOR, AND YOU BEGIN TO STAND
WITHOUT AT THE KNOCK AT THE DOOR, SAYING, LORD, LORD, OPEN UNTO
US. AND HE SHALL ANSWER AND SAY UNTO
YOU, I KNOW YOU NOT WHENCE YOU ARE. THEN SHALL YOU BEGIN TO
SAY, WE HAVE EATEN AND DRUNK IN THY PRESENCE, AND THOU HAST
TAUGHT IN OUR STREETS. WHEN HE SHALL SAY, I TELL YOU,
I KNOW YOU NOT WHENCE YOU ARE, DEPART FROM ME, ALL YOU WORKERS
OF INIQUITY. NOW LISTEN, THERE SHALL BE WEEPING
AND GNASHING OF TEETH WHEN YOU SHALL SEE ABRAHAM, ISAAC, JACOB,
AND ALL THE PROPHETS IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND YOU YOURSELF THRUST
OUT. Judgment is devastating when
God rises up and executes judgment. God's justice is real, it's real. You're not going to hear much
about it today in many pulpits at all. That just doesn't make
for good preaching. That's not how you get a crowd.
You don't get a crowd by telling the truth. You get a crowd by
telling them what they want to hear. That's what politicians
do, isn't it? Politicians, they stick their
finger up in the air and see which way the wind's blowing
and that's what they, they say, this is what I believe. They
believe what the people believe. I'm not a politician. God's preachers
are not politicians. They are God's preachers and
they tell the truth, even when it's not pleasant. God's justice
is real and inescapable. SIN HAS A COST. It s called death
and torment. It s very real. And then fourthly, God s distinction
between His people and the Egyptians, which represents the world. We
know that. BUT AGAINST ANY OF THE CHILDREN
OF ISRAEL SHALL NOT A DOG MOVE HIS TONGUE AGAINST MAN OR BEAST,
THAT YOU MAY KNOW HOW THAT THE LORD DOTH PUT A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
THE EGYPTIANS AND ISRAEL. THE LORD PUT A DIFFERENCE. WHAT'S
THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ISRAEL AND EGYPT? WHAT'S THE
BIGGEST DIFFERENCE? GOD. GOD'S THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE. EGYPT HAD NO GOD. THEIR GODS WERE FALSE GODS. THEIR
GODS DID NOT EVEN EXIST. THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
ALL OF YOU WHO BELIEVE AND THE WORLD IS GOD. BUT GOD. BUT GOD WHO'S RICH IN MERCY. THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE. OUR GOD.
OUR GOD IS THE DIFFERENCE. THAT'S THE BIG DIFFERENCE. It
says in 1st Corinthians, Who maketh thee to differ? Who made
you to differ? Who made you different than your
neighbor who doesn't believe? God did that. God did that. What do you have that you didn't
receive? Let's be careful that we don't give God the proper
glory for everything we have materially and spiritually. You
know, we do so spiritually, I know we do so, but let's be careful
that we do so materially too. The Lord's given us what we have.
He's given it to us. He's blessed us with it. We give
thanks for all things for He's given us all that we have. God is the difference. No harm
comes to Israel. GOD MAKES A CLEAR DISTINCTION
BETWEEN HIS PEOPLE AND THEIR OPPRESSORS, AND HE SAYS NOT EVEN
A DOG CAN BARK AT YOU. DO YOU THINK GOD HAS THAT MUCH
CONTROL? DO YOU THINK HE'S THAT MINUTELY INVOLVED IN YOUR LIFE? DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE THAT GOD
IS THAT INVOLVED IN YOUR LIFE THAT EVEN A DOG CAN'T EVEN BARK
AT YOU? Not even a dog. He can't even
move his tongue. He said against Israel or the beast or their
animals that they take with them. He can't even do that. He controls
the tongue of a dog. But here's the point. God has
a people on this earth that He's chosen to save. That is so clear
throughout the Word of God. And if He didn't, no one would
be saved. NOT ONE PERSON WOULD BE SAVED IF GOD DIDN'T SAVE THEM. Listen to these scriptures in
Romans 11 and 5, Even so then at this present time also there
is a remnant according to the election of grace. God saved you. Now some of you
here, you believe God saved you. Did He choose you? You choose
Him. Is it by grace or by merit? I have done everything I could
do, everything I can possibly do not to be saved. I've done
everything I can do not to be saved and God saved me anyway. He saved me anyway. By grace,
boys, you get older and you get closer to the grave Amazing grace
sounds sweeter all the time. That song means more and I never
get tired of that song. It means more and more to me
as I get closer to the grave. Amazing grace how sweet the sound
that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now I'm found.
Blind but now I see. And I see by the grace of God.
It's all by His grace. 2 Thessalonians 2 13 But we are
bound to give thanks always to God for you. We don't thank you,
we thank God. We don't thank you for coming.
You ought to be here to worship God. Really? But we do thank
God. I do thank God for you. I do. WE ARE BOUND TO GIVE THANKS ALWAYS
TO GOD FOR YOU, BRETHREN, BELOVED OF THE LORD, BECAUSE GOD HATH
FROM THE BEGINNING CHOSEN YOU TO SALVATION THROUGH SANCTIFICATION
OF THE SPIRIT AND BELIEF OF THE TRUTH." These are the means that
God uses. And God said, You're mine, you're mine, I'm going
to have you. That's right, you're going to
do everything to mess it up, but you're not going to mess it up because
it all hinges on My Son on your behalf. That's good news. That's such good news! God has
a covenant people on this Earth, and some of them, probably the
greatest part of them, are already now in Heaven. But God has a people, a covenant
people, and this people will be redeemed,
they will be called by grace, they will be called by the Spirit
of God, They will be REGENERATED, BORN OF GOD. They will be SEALED
WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT OF PROMISE. They will be FORGIVEN. They will
be PARDONED. They will be JUSTIFIED. They
will be MADE RIGHTEOUS. And they will be TAKEN TO GLORY
because Jesus Christ said, I go and prepare a place for you,
and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and
receive you to Myself, that where I am THERE you may be also. We
shouldn't be afraid to die. We shouldn't be afraid to die. We're about to live. We are about
to live. Great are the people. I got this
from Matthew Henry. I thought it was good. Great
are the people for whom God fights. In verse 7 we see the absolute
control God has over everything there when He doesn't even let
a dog bark. Listen, God knoweth them that
are His, and He will keep them amid trouble, and He'll bring
them out of this world to glory. What He's doing right now with
us, you know what He's doing? He's preparing us for that place
that He prepared for us. That's what He's doing. And then we see God's power demonstrated
in verse 8. And I wrote over this verse,
or I wrote over top of it this morning. Every knee shall bow.
Listen. And all these thy servants shall
come down to me. This is Moses talking to Pharaoh
and saying, All your servants are going to come down and bow
to me and they are going to ask me to leave. That's right, they're
gonna tell you, get out of here. We'll give you, here's the silver,
here's the gold, get out of town. And all these thy servants shall
come down unto me, and bow down themselves unto me, saying, get
thee out, and all the people that follow thee. And after that
I will go out. And he went out from Pharaoh
in great anger. One day, one day, everybody is
going to bow to Jesus Christ just like they bowed to Moses.
Every person, every believer, every unbeliever, everyone is
going to bow and confess that He is Lord to the glory of God
the Father. He is going to and it is going
to happen. And Moses leaves, it says, in great anger. Listen,
there's a righteous indignation against rebellion. It's like,
you know, it's funny. When you preach, I stand here
and preach every week. I stand here and preach every week. And
I see, and I've done this for years. I've preached for 40 some
years. Time after time, I've watched
people just get up and walk away. It's rebellion, it's what it
is, it's rebellion against God. There's a real mixture there,
there's a righteous indignation, it's like HOW DARE YOU TURN YOUR
BACK ON GOD! Seriously, how DARE you turn
your back on God? You know back when they had kings
and their subject would be speaking to them. You know how they left
the room? They did not turn around like this and leave. They bowed
and walked out like this. That's how they left the room.
And when I see people just turning their back on God, I think, how
dare you? And yet I know, I know how they
did it because I've done it so many, I did it so many times.
I know they're dead in trespasses and sins. So your anger is tempered
with pity, sorrow for them. Because I know
there are some that's never going to believe. They're never going
to. No matter how many times they hear the gospel, they're
just going to walk away. I've seen it happen. I've seen
it. There comes a point when resistance
to God ends in surrender or ruin. Spurgeon put it this way in a
sermon I read years ago, and I don't remember the title of
it, but he said, in this sermon, he said, and that might be the
title of the sermon, Turn or Burn. I think that might have
been the title of his sermon, Turn or Burn. And then sixthly,
we see God's purpose fulfilled through Pharaoh's hardness. I
do understand this. All those who leave, God's purpose
is fulfilled. It's still fulfilled. It's still
fulfilled. God allows Pharaoh's heart to
remain hard so his wonders will be multiplied. Even rebellion becomes part of
God's purpose to reveal His glory. The wrath of man shall praise
Him, and the rest He'll restrain. That's what it says. And you
know what we do? We bow to that. I'm not going
to claim to know all the great mystery of God. I can't comprehend
that, but I can bow to it. I can believe it. Don't be discouraged. And this
is for especially those of us who preach. It is not to be discouraged
when hearts are hard because God's purpose is still fulfilled.
I understand that in the end, God's purpose is still fulfilled.
Now let me close. In Exodus 11 here, Exodus 11 prepares the stage
for the Passover and the great delivery to come here we're going
to get into that next Lord willing next week Exodus 12 now we're
going to see we're going to see God's purpose and redemption
and of course you and I we can apply to the Lord Jesus Christ
most of those Israelites didn't they wandered into wilderness
most of them and died because of unbelief But thank God we
can read Exodus 12 and we know exactly who it's talking about.
It's talking about the Lord Jesus Christ. But this chapter alone
teaches us four critical truths. God has a time and a purpose
for absolutely everything. So wait on the Lord. God provides
and protects His covenant people. Not even a dog can bark at you
unless the Lord allows it. The other day I got a gnat in
my eye. Vicki had to get it out. I couldn't
do it. Was that accidental or was that
just incidental? No, because I'll tell you why.
I'm using it right now in this sermon. I'm using it right now
in this message. It was not an accident. involved God is in the life of
His children. Not even a gnat can get in my
eye without Him allowing it to do it. I thank God I realize that. That's
how you can live on this earth with some peace and some assurances
that God Almighty, all things are of God right down to a gnat
flying in my eye. Thirdly, GOD JUDGES SIN WITH
A HOLY JUSTICE. GOD WILL JUDGE SIN. And last
of all, GOD USES EVEN HARDENED HEARTS TO GLORIFY HIMSELF. He
even used Pharaoh. This morning, you know this morning,
God is getting the glory out of this story one more time.
God's getting the glory again, all these thousands of years
later, He's getting the glory out of this. And Pharaoh's alive. That man's
still alive. You think he doesn't remember
Moses? You think he doesn't remember all those times God said, let
my people go? And all those times he refused? You think he doesn't
remember that? Rolf Barnard called those memories
the bloodhounds of hell. Son, remember what Abraham said
to that man at Richmond. Son, remember in your days how
you had it well and you were rich and Lazarus laid at your
gate. Monary called them the bloodhounds of hell because you'll
remember. Remember that one I just read
you in Luke? He said, When you see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,
when you see them seated in glory and you are cast out, He said,
there's going to be much weeping and much wailing. All right.
