Psalm 50. The title of this psalm is, Judgment
Begins at the House of God. That's what this is about. God
is going to judge His people, His house. And He's going to
expose hypocrisy. He's going to purge His house,
His church, of the tares that are among the wheat. And He tells
us, and He gives it to us, what true worship is. It's thankfulness. It's praise. That's where it begins. It's
not in the offerings. It's not in the doing. It literally
starts in the heart. Worship begins before you and
I ever move a muscle. Before we ever even make a move
in the direction of coming here. Worship had already better be
started. Because it's in the heart. It's
in the heart. And that's what he's talking
about here. Peter said this in 1 Peter 4.17,
For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God. And if it first began at us,
if God purges His house, and He calls everyone from one end
of this earth to the other to witness this judgment, He says,
If that's so, and if it first began at us, what shall the end
be of them that obey not the gospel of God? This is what we have here in
this psalm. In verse 1 through 6, we are going to see that God
calls to judgment. He says here in verse 1, The
mighty God the mighty God, even the Lord, hath spoken." He uses
three names here. El, Elohim, Jehovah. He's speaking here of the three-in-one
God. That's who He's speaking of. And He describes Him here as
the mighty God. The One who created heaven and
earth. The One who owns everything as
we just read. It's all mine, He said, the world
and all that's in it is mine. The mighty God, and He has spoken,
is written in Hebrews chapter 1 verse 1 and 2. God, who at sundry times and
in diverse manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the
prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son,
whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made
the worlds." The sooner you and I learn that
it is all about Jesus Christ, the better off we'll be. The
sooner we learn all things are made by Him and for Him. And all judgment, the Scripture
says, all judgment has been committed to the Son. God, in the second
person of the Trinity, is going to be the judge. Now when God speaks, He says
here that the mighty God, even the Lord, has spoken, we ought
to listen. We better listen. We better listen. But I thought, how condescending
for the mighty God to speak to creatures like me and you, to
sinful men like me and you, to call us to be a witness, to call
the East and the West to be a witness at this judgment. And as He says
here, And He called the earth from the rising of the sun until
the going down thereof. He sent out a summons, He commands,
He commands them all to show up. The Almighty God summons the
whole earth to this tribunal. It's real now. What we're reading
is real. And he says here, and he tells
us here, that he speaks out of Zion, not Mount Sinai. You remember he spoke from Mount
Sinai, the thunder and lightning, but here he's speaking out of
Mount Zion. Out of Zion, the perfection of
beauty, God has shined." You know, God shines in His creation
every day, doesn't He? Did you see it today? Did you
see Him today in creation? Did you see in that beautiful
sunshine, that sun as it went across the sky, the warmth of
it, the beauty of it? It says in Psalm 19, "...the
heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth
His handiwork." But it is in Zion, His church, His church,
that He shines in the fullness of His person through the preaching
of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. That's where God shines.
And not only does He shine in His church, but He shines out
of His church. It is out of this church and
all the local churches throughout this world that God shines out
to the world. And He's made known. Now whether
they believe it or not, That's God's business. But now God shines
out of Zion. But you notice here how He speaks
of the church. Out of Zion, the perfection of
beauty. This is not how we see ourselves,
is it? But this is how God sees us.
God sees us without spot or blemish. He sees us blameless, unreprovable
in His sight. God sees us, His church, as the
perfection of beauty. And when He comes here now, He
says, out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shined, and
our God shall come and shall not keep silence. Whose God is
coming? Whose God is coming? Our God,
the only one there is. Our God is coming. Remember in
Psalm 48, verse 14, we read this, For this God is our God for ever
and ever, and this God is coming. He has come in the person of
His Son, Jesus Christ. God has come into this world,
and He's coming again. And when He comes again, listen
how He's going to come, a fire shall devour before Him, and
it shall be very tempestuous, stormy round about Him. The first
time He came, it was barely noticed, not much was said. But now when
He comes, He says He will not keep silence. Now I tell you
this, Men have mistaken the silence
of God as either having His favor or that He's indifferent. And
He's neither. In this situation, He's neither
one. He's going to come, He's not
going to keep silence, and a fire is going to devour before Him,
and it's going to be very tempestuous around about Him. Remember this. Our God is a consuming fire. He still is. And He is to be
preached as such. In Christ, God is a God of mercy,
a God of grace. In Christ, He can show mercy
to us. In Christ, He can forgive us.
In Christ, He loves us. But outside of Jesus Christ,
God is a consuming fire. And this world and hypocrites,
false professors, are going to deal with an angry God. With
God who is angry. Look at Calvary. God spared not
His own Son. Now what's He going to do to
those who despise His Son? Those who mock His Son? It says
here that He's going to be a fire that devours. And tempestuous, that means stormy,
very stormy, round about Him. He shall call to the heavens
from above and to the earth, that He may judge His people.
God's going to summon the whole earth to hear what He has to
say. HE'S GOING TO SUMMON HEAVEN AND
EARTH TO WITNESS THIS JUDGEMENT. THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE A SECRET
JUDGEMENT. IT'S NOT GOING TO BE A SECRET
JUDGEMENT. HE'S GOING TO CALL HEAVEN AND
EARTH TO BE WITNESS. AND I TELL YOU THIS, WHEN GOD
PASSES JUDGEMENT, WHEN HE FINALLY PASSES JUDGEMENT, WHEN THIS IS
ALL OVER, AND HE PASSES JUDGEMENT, EVERYONE IN HEAVEN AND EVERYONE
IN HELL, are going to know that He's right. That He's right. Even those in hell will have
to confess that He's right. Now He says here in verse 5,
"...gather My saints together to Me." Remember He tells us
in the Gospels that He's going to send forth His angels to gather
His elect from the four corners of the earth? His angels are
going to separate the tares and the wheat. He's going to send
them to do it. He said, Don't you do it, because you'll mess
it up. Because you and I won't be able to tell the difference.
But God sees the heart, and the angels know the difference. However
they know, they know, they know the difference. And He's going
to send them to separate the wheat from the tares. And He
says, Gather My saints together to Me. My saints, because they've
already been judged. in the Lord Jesus Christ," Calvary
is their judgment. "...those that have made a covenant
with Me by sacrifice." God's saints are going to be gathered
to Him who are partakers of that covenant of grace, that covenant
which was ratified by the sacrifice and blood of Jesus Christ. Now, I thought this when I read
this. The question came across my mind,
how do I make a covenant with God? How do I do that? A sinful man. I'll tell you how.
In my representative, the Lord Jesus Christ. He made the covenant. He made the covenant with God
by sacrifice. He agreed to be the sacrifice. He agreed to be
the surety. And whatever my Lord agreed to
do, that is accountable to me. He's my representative. He's
our representative. So in Christ, we have made a
covenant with God by the sacrifice of His Son. And He says, you gather them to Me.
We don't have to fear judgment. Judgment is coming. You know,
you can imagine Noah, they said he was a preacher, the scripture
says he was a preacher of righteousness, God's righteousness, not man's
righteousness. And you know, day by day, every
day he hammered that ark, he said, judgment's coming. Every
time he put a peg in that ark, every time he worked on that
ark, he was saying, judgment's coming. But eight of them, can
you imagine that? How many people do you think
were alive at that time on the earth? Millions? Millions? Without
a doubt, millions? Eight people. Eight people. Went on the earth, plus the animals.
You know, the animals that were saved. Judgment's coming, that's what
he's saying, but you gather my saints together to me. You gather
them to me. They're safe. Safe in the shepherd's
fold. We saw that, the shepherd going
out and got his sheep and brought them back, carried them back.
We're safe. The saints are. Since the fall, God has been
gathering His saints together. And he says in verse 6, "...and
the heavens shall declare His righteousness, for God is judge."
Now what he's saying, if God is the judge and God is the judge,
you can be sure of this, it will be a righteous judgment. He will
pass righteous judgment. He will not exact more on someone
than what they deserve. But He's the judge. And angels
and just men, the Scripture says they're just men made perfect,
those saints of God. Here's what they're going to
do. They're going to glorify God in His judgments. Over in Revelation, when He cast
the great whore into hell, what do the saints do? They shout
hallelujah. They glorify God in His judgments. It says in Revelation 19.2, true
and righteous are His judgments. It says the same thing in Revelation
16.7, true and righteous are His judgments. Now, verses 7-15, He's going
to talk about true worship. He's going to bring us to this
point of true worship. Hear, O my people, and I will
speak. O Israel..." Now listen, He is
speaking to Israel right at this time. All Israel claimed to be that
the Lord was their God, but not all that are of Israel
are Israel. "...Hear, O my people, and I
will speak, O Israel, and I will testify against thee, I am God,
even thy God, you even claim that." They say, God is our God. Now God's speaking to His people,
Israel, but He's also speaking, listen, to the church throughout
all ages. Those who claim to be His people. You can go up
and down all these, you know, go up and down the road here,
go over into town, all these so-called churches, they all
claim to be His people, don't they? If you claim Christianity,
if you make that claim, you claim to be His. Does that make you
His? No. If you were an Israelite
back in this day, did that make you His? No. That's where they
missed it. Some are His and some are not. That's what Paul said in Romans
9, 6. Not all Israel are of Israel. Now God says, I'm going to testify
against you. I'm going to expose. Here's what He's going to do.
I'm going to expose the hypocrites. I'm going to expose, and that's
what our Lord did with the Pharisees, wasn't it? He exposed them for
their hypocrisy. In that one chapter of Matthew,
He said, Whoa, do you scribes, Pharisees, and hypocrites? And
He went down through this whole list of exposing them. And he
says here, "...I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices, or thy
burnt offerings, to have been continually before me." God commanded
these to be offered. He said, I'm not going to reprove
you for doing what I told you to do. They offered those sacrifices
morning and evening, every day. They offered them all the time. Your offerings of sacrifices
is not the problem. That's not the problem. I go
to church every Sunday, I go to church every mid-week service,
I never miss a time. That's not the problem. That's
what he's saying. That's not the problem. Listen to what our Lord says
here in Matthew 23, 3, "...Woe unto you, scribes, Pharisees,
hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and
anise and cumin, And that's what you're supposed to do. "...and
have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy,
and faith. These ought you to have done,
and not to leave the other undone." Yeah, you're giving your tithes. You're doing this. You're giving
the offerings. But here's what it's going to
come down to. Here's what it's going to come down to. But your heart's not in it.
That's what this whole thing is coming down to. Your heart
is not in the worship service. You're just there in body. You're
doing what I told you to do, but your heart is clean gone.
It's nowhere to be found. There's no heart in what you're
doing. Boy, I'm telling you this. I've read this. I started not
to bring this tonight because I need to read it more and more
for my own self. Your heart, your heart. Where is your heart at? He says,
I will take no bullock out of thy house, nor he goes out of
thy foe. The sacrifices in and of themselves
do not satisfy God. Listen to what our Lord said
in Hebrews. Well, turn over to Hebrews chapter 10. Hebrews chapter 10. I'm just going to read several
of these verses and start with verse 1. In Hebrews 10, For the law,
having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image
of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offer
year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
For then would they not have ceased to be offered? If they
had made them perfect, they wouldn't be offered any more. because
that the worshippers once perished should have had no more conscience
of sins. But in those sacrifices there
is a remembrance again made of sins every year. For it is not
possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away
sins, but they..." See, they missed it. They thought it dead. Their heart was so dead, they
just offer up some bulls and goats and go on their way. It
made me think of Catholicism. Forgive me, Father, I have sinned."
Well, say 50 Hail Marys and doh, doh, doh, and then you're going
your way. And that's the attitude they had. They would go offer
these offerings and sacrifices, and they'd just go on their way
and do what they wanted to do, which was sin. Wherefore, when
he cometh into the world, he says, sacrifice, when Christ
comes into the world, he said, sacrifice an offering, That's
not why you sent me. I didn't come into this world
to show Israel how to offer sacrifices. They've been doing that. They've
been doing that for years, many years. But a body hast thou prepared
me to sacrifice, not to offer blood of bulls and goats, in
burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin. Thou hast had no pleasure."
God never had pleasure in those things. God had pleasure in the
one they pointed to, but never in the blood of bulls and goats.
It was always in the one that they pointed to, the Lord Jesus
Christ. Then said I, Lo, I come, in the
volume of the book it's written of me, to do thy will, O God.
Above, when he says, Sacrifice and offering, and barn offerings,
and offerings for sin, thou wouldest not, neither had pleasure therein,
which are offered by the law. Then said he, Lo, I come, to
do thy will, O God. He takes away the first, and
he may establish the second, because he had no pleasure in
the first. He found no satisfaction in the
first. In the first one, in the blood of bulls and goats, no
sin was ever put away, ever. All sin has been put away by
the blood of Jesus Christ. When He died on Calvary's cross,
He put away the blood of all His people. Those in the Old
Testament and all those in the New Testament and to the end
of time. He put it away. And so He says,
I don't want no more... I'm not after more bullocks.
I'm not after more bulls and goats. For every beast of the
forest is mine, the cattle upon a thousand hills. I know all
the fowls of the mountains, and the wild beasts of the field
are mine." What can we give God that's not His already? It's
all His. And if I were hungry, I wouldn't
tell you. I wouldn't knock on your door
and tell you I'm hungry. For the world is mine, and the
fullness thereof." God is not in need. That's why He's saying
He has no need. God accrues nothing by us. We add nothing to God. Nothing. People are apt to think that
by their observance of external duties that God is obligated
to them. That's the way the Pharisees
felt. They felt that they were saved because they did these
things. And they missed it. He said, Will I eat the flesh
of bulls or drink the blood of goats? Is that what you think?
Is that your thoughts of me? That's the way the pagans thought
of their idols. Do you think that I would eat
the flesh of bulls and drink their blood? You think that would
satisfy me?" You couldn't have a lower thought of God Almighty
than to think that, other than to think that He's like you.
That's as low as it gets. But listen here, now you're going
to tell us something here about true worship. Offer unto God
thanksgiving. I wrote just a short article
there in the bulletin that Thanksgiving is probably the most proper holiday
we've got. Holiday of Thanksgiving. That's
what we ought to do. Give thanks. True worship starts
in the heart. Without the heart, worship is
vain and empty. And if the heart is engaged in
it, it's evident God has given you a new heart, and that new
heart is evidenced by thankfulness. Thank you, Lord, for saving my
son." We just saw that last Sunday in those ten lepers. Only one
turned back and gave him thanks and praise for healing him. The
other nine left. Thanksgiving is a spiritual offering. You know, we think of bringing
our offerings, we think of bringing money. We think of giving something. Well, if we don't give thanks,
if that's not the first offering, the rest of it's an abomination
to God. That's what he's saying. It's
thankful. I'm thankful, and you're thankful,
that we even live in a country that right now allows us to meet
like this freely. There are many places in this
world that can't do what we're doing tonight. Lord, thank you
for this freedom. Preserve it. Preserve it. He's the only one who can. We
can't preserve it, I'm telling you. Only God can preserve it. We can pray. We pray for all
men, kings and all men in authority. It's God who preserves us. And by God's grace, let's learn
to be thankful. to come here. Lord, thank you
for the ability to come here. Thank you for the desire, the
desire to be here. Thank you for that desire to
be here. They were willing to do the ceremonies,
they were willing to give the sacrifices, but not give their
hearts. Their hearts were totally given
over to their self-righteousness, it was given over to their immorality,
their sin. They would sit in judgment and
say, you're not supposed to steal. And then the Lord said, and you
steal. You say, thou shalt not commit
adultery, and you commit adultery. But what they would do, they'd
commit adultery, but they'd go off with these sacrifices and
then go back home. Everything's all right. We'll
just offer another bullock next week. Well, that's not the way
it works. It doesn't work like that. Listen to Psalm 51, 17. The sacrifices
of God are a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart, O God, thou
wilt not despise. Listen to what Micah says in
Micah chapter 6, verse 6 through 8. I'll read it. I've got it
copied down here. "'Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bow myself before the high
God? Shall I come before Him with
burnt offerings, with calves of a year old? Will the Lord
be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousands of
rivers of oil? Shall I give my firstborn for
my transgression the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
Now listen. He has showed thee, O man, what
is good. And what does the Lord require
of thee? Are you interested? What does
a God of heaven and earth require? To do justly and to love mercy. and to walk humbly with thy God."
Israel didn't do that. They were proud. Those Pharisees
were so proud, they looked down their nose. There in Isaiah,
he said, you say, come not near me, I am holier than thou. What does God require? Here it
is, to do just, to be just, to be honest, to love mercy, To
show mercy to the guilty because God showed it to you. And to
walk humbly, always walk humbly with thy God. Listen here, and
pay thy vows unto the Most High. Now, that does not mean that
you say, Lord, if you heal me, I'll give more. That's not what
that's talking about. No. These are spiritual vows. These are spiritual vows. These
are vows that are committed to Christ. This is commitment to
Jesus Christ. It is a commitment to follow
after Him. He is mine. I am His and He is mine. Now listen. These vows, these
spiritual vows, are like marriage vows. What do we say in our marriage
vows? leaving all others, for better, for worse. Hard trials
come. How many disciples left the Lord
in the parable of the sower? Remember
the one who received it on stony ground when the sun was up, it
was hot, it just wilted, and it represents the one who, when
trials came, they were offended. They were offended. Trials came,
they were offended, and they left. No. Our vow with the Lord is
for better or for worse. Our vow is to leave all others,
mother, father, sister, brother, whoever, is to leave all others
for Christ. That's the pay-thy-vows. unto the Most High God." We are
consecrated to Jesus Christ alone. One of Israel's greatest problems
was spiritual adultery. They kept mixing with the other
nations and they even got into... What was the first thing they
did when Moses went up on the mountain? Gone for 40 days. They
said, He's gone. He's been gone a long time. They
made a golden calf. Spiritual adultery. That's one
of the things we ought to be very guarded against, because
it's easy to do. Because it's not hard for something
to get your attention and get your heart, and take your heart
away. The next thing you know, you're
missing a service here, you're missing there, you're missing,
you're missing. It's got you. It's got you. Whatever has your heart has you.
It has you. And this is to be guarded against,
because it was so rampant with Israel. And He says here, "...and pay
thy vows unto the Most High, and call upon Me in the day of
trouble, I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify Me." You
know, most people call upon the Lord in the day of trouble. They're
always saying, Lord, save me from this, save me from that,
get me out of this, get me out of that. But the verse before that? Committed to Him? Separated to
Him? You see, if the verse before
that is not happening, verse 15 is not either. Verse 15 ain't happening either.
Because this is a promise to those who are committed to Him. This is a promise to those who
have left all for Jesus Christ. And he says, Call upon me in
the day of trouble, I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify
me. And then he exposes the wicked
that's in the church. He calls them wicked. He calls
the hypocrites here, false professors, wicked. He's not talking to a
bunch of drunks. He's talking to a bunch of hypocrites
who've made a profession, but there's no heart in it whatsoever.
But unto the wicked God says, What hast thou to do to declare
my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy mouth? Christ said to those Pharisees,
This people, draw nigh to me with their lips, well, with their
mouth, and they honor me with their lips, but their heart is
far from me." They'll say, oh, praise the Lord. They'll stand and sing with everybody
else. But he says, their heart, their
heart is far from me. Seeing thou hatest instruction,
you hate the Word of God, you hate what God has to say, and
you cast my words behind you. You cast them off. When Christ
spoke the truth, they hated Him for it. The Pharisees cast away
the Word of God and they taught their own words. Listen to Matthew
15.9, But in vain they do worship Me, teaching for doctrines the
commandments of men. Christ told those Pharisees once,
He said, You teach the tradition of the elders. You have set aside
the commandment of God, and you teach the tradition of the elders.
You know why? Because you don't like what God
says. David said, Oh, how I love thy law. And he's speaking there
of the whole Word of God. Is there any part of God's Word
you don't like or I don't like? Is there any part of God's Word
I don't like? Well, if there is, I've got a problem. The problem
is not with the Word, it's with me. He said, you hate instructions. Just like right now. Listen,
every time the Gospels preach, every time the Word of God is
opened up, You and I are being instructed. And those who hate
it, toss it aside before they ever get out the door. Before
you ever get out the door, they toss it aside. When you saw a thief, you consented
with him. And you have been partaking with
adulterers. Our Lord said this, you devour
widows' houses. You rob them of their substance.
You make long prayers of this pretense before men that you
know God, but you are robbing the widows' houses. You're stealing
from them. And you're consenting to it.
How much did you get today? How much could you bring in today? They were agreeing to it. Whenever
Pilate said, Who do you want me to give to you, Barabbas or
Jesus? I find no fault in Jesus. They
said, Give us Barabbas. Give us the robber, the murderer.
He committed murder. They sided up with Barabbas instead
of the Son of God. That's false religion. That's
what a false profession will end up doing for you. He said,
You give your mouth to evil and your tongue, you frame deceit.
You try to say it in a way that's smooth, but your heart is deceitful. They spoke evil of the Lord Jesus
Christ and his followers. You give your mouth to evil. Instead of praise, you don't
praise God. He said, you give your mouth to evil. And you sit
and speak against thy brother, thou slanderous, thine own mother's
son. They sit in the seat of the scornful. This is what God is bringing
into judgment in the beginning of this psalm. He's going to expose His true
people, He's going to make it evident who they are, and He's
going to make it evident who the hypocrites are, who the terrors
are among the weak. And these are the ones who sit
in the seat of the scornful. They condemn others while doing
the same things. Thou teachest, he said, thou
therefore which teachest another teachest thou not thyself? Thou
sayest a man, or thou preachest a man should not steal? Doest
thou steal? Lord, you know what he said,
you do steal. You do steal. Now listen, let us not make the
mistake of mistaking God's silence for approval. God doesn't bring
judgment right immediately all the time. Sometimes he lets a
man fill up his iniquity. It's like the old adage, you
give him enough rope and he'll what? Hang himself. And that's exactly
what God does. He'll give a false professor
enough rope and let him hang himself. That's what Judas did. He went out and he hanged himself. And he was with them for all
that time, ate with them, heard all the preaching that our Lord
did, heard him pray, saw him do miracles, and then betrayed
him and went out and hanged himself. These things hast thou done,
and I kept silence. And the reason he kept silence
is to let them expose themselves. I've always wondered this, but
I know the answer to it. I've wondered why some of these
people that committed a bank robbery, they make a big heist,
some of the biggest heists ever made in history. They'll steal
millions. And I think, why don't you stop?
You just, you just, you know, you stole 10 million dollars.
Why don't you stop? You can live like a king the
rest of your life. But they can't do it. They can't do it. Because the Lord turns their
nature loose on them, and they can't control it. It's an addiction. You know, the Word of God says
that mischief to the wicked is the same as sport. It's like
a basketball player playing basketball, the thrill he gets out of that,
the mischief get a thrill out of robbing houses and creating
havoc. It's sport to them. It's sport. He said, these things hast thou
done, I kept silence. And because of that, you thought
I was altogether such a one, you thought I was like you. You
and I could not, no one could have a lower thought of God than
to think that God is like myself. That's as low as it gets. You thought I was altogether
like yourselves. But God says, I will reprove
thee and set them in order before thine eyes. What judgment? Judgment
is going to be a day of surprises. I mean surprises. He says, and now consider this,
you either forget God, in the services you forget God, you're
here, you go through the service, but you forget God. Your mind is not on God at all,
your heart's not on God at all, he said. Now, isn't this amazing? Here's room for repentance. Right
here is space for repentance. Now consider this, ye that forget
God, lest I tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver
you out of my hand. There's none who can deliver
you. If God doesn't deliver me out
of his hands, if God doesn't do it, nobody else can. And here's the promise of salvation,
and I quit. The promise of salvation. Now listen, let's get this. Whoso
offereth praise glorifieth me. Praise from the heart. Praise
God from whom all blessings flow. To offer unto God all the glory
of salvation with all the heart. And to him that orders his conversation
aright will I show the salvation of God." Now listen, those who
order their lives around the gospel, that's the best way I
know how to state that. And to him that orders his conversation,
that's his life. He orders his life aright. To
order your life aright is to order your life around the gospel.
You know, whatever it is we love, We order our life around that,
don't we? We design our life so we can do what we love to
do. And those who love the Lord and
glorify Him order their lives around the Gospel. And God says,
I will show Him, I will reveal to Him the salvation of God. He'll reveal
to us Jesus Christ. When God reveals His salvation,
He reveals Jesus Christ. And in Him, we glorify God. We give Him the glorious doing
to His name for time and eternity. All right.
