We've been going through the
Gospel of Luke, and have you been struck by the seriousness of everything
our Lord has said? Have you noticed that? All through
this Gospel, life and death, this urgency
of everything our Lord has been saying, the seriousness of it,
warning after warning, reproof after reproof, urgent words, And here our Lord is speaking
of the marriage supper of the Lamb, which is very soon. His supper. He speaks of those
who will be there. And He lays bare all the excuses
that people give. You remember back in chapter
13 where He said, Strive to enter in. I said, once that door is
shut, many will seek to enter in and he'll say, I never knew
you. You're not mine. You never were. I know you're not. Paul said,
I press. Paul said, I haven't arrived
yet. Then this one thing I do, it's a pressing matter. Life
or death. Jacob, like old Jacob, this is
what it means to strive. Jacob said, I will not let thee
go, except you bless me. Simon Peter. Many people went
away. Our Lord said, will you go also?
He said, to whom? You're our life. No excuses. And yet, the only reason That
Simon Peter said that, the only reason he wouldn't go away, they
wouldn't go away, because God did this work in them. It was
God in them that God made them willing and gave them a love
for him. Now, I just told those that were
bidden to a wedding or this feast, people that came to this dinner,
this supper. He told them to take the lowest
seat as one that's unworthy to be there. When you're bidding,
go. Somebody tells you to come. Go
and take the lowest seat as one that's unworthy to be there,
one that's just grateful that you were called to come. Take
the lowest seat. And that's the way it is with
every child of God. Every single child of God knows
that we're unworthy. And we're all singing, we're
all singing in heaven, worthy is the Lamb. That was slang. Unto Him, unto Him, unto Him. Every one of God's people know
they are nothing, they're nobody, unworthy. poor, wretched sinner,
that we were without God, without hope, without Christ, when God
sent the gospel, the Spirit of God to us and called us by His
grace. And every one of God's people
know we don't deserve to be in His kingdom. We're just grateful
that He bade us, called us. Now, bidden, listen to me now
carefully. It's not invite. Look it up. You've got a concordance. Look
it up. It is not invite. The word bid does not mean invite. God doesn't invite anybody to
do anything. Kings never did invite people.
They commanded. They commanded. Never did. Never
do. Listen to Psalm 2. Brother John
read this. John Sheasley Sr. read this in
the study last week. I've set my king on my holy hill
of Zion. I've declared the decree. This
thou art my son. This thou have I begotten. I've
set you on my holy hill of Zion. Now, he says, now kiss the son
lest he be angry. Doesn't that sound like an invite?
Don't you please accept my son?" No! Bow. Serve the Lord with
fear. Rejoice with tremor. Kiss the
Son. That's the answer. Command. God commandeth men everywhere
to repent. The Creator doesn't ask the creature
to do things. God doesn't ask. He tells us
to ask. He commands. God commandeth all
men everywhere to repent. And here's salvation. John and
I love this scripture. God gave commandment to save
me. I wouldn't have come. To invite
people is to imply that they have the ability to come or accept
it if they want to. Man's dead. God doesn't invite,
He gives life. He makes willing. Man's will
is sinful. God makes willing the day of
His power. He says, Come. He doesn't invite. That's important. That's important,
because all through here, it talks about those that are bidding.
Bidding, bidding, all right? Many are called. Have they not
all heard? Yes, barely the sound has gone
throughout the world. God is not inviting sinners to
accept His Son. He's telling them everywhere.
You better bow. You better believe. You better
call. That's what He's saying. This is a call. Many are called.
The few chosen. Chosen to believe. So long a time, I heard, I heard
this, I heard this, I heard this, I heard this. I would not come.
I would not come. I did not come. I would not come.
Like the prodigal son, I've left. Like these people in the highways
and the hedges, that's where I was. And then in the end of
this story, it says, go compel them. You know what compel means?
Look it up. Force. Pick them up and bring them. I've told the whole story. That's
my salvation. That's yours. If you're saved,
that's who did it. And that's Al. That's for his
glory. We don't belong there. We're
not worthy. Just grateful to be there. And
real glad he fetched us. He said there, he that exalteth
himself, verse 11, shall be abased. All proud sinners on earth in
the end, if not humbled by this gospel of Christ crucified, they're
going to be cast out, going to be put down the day Christ comes
for his people who are the meek. The meek. That's what it means
to be meek. I don't deserve to be here. I sure am glad. I sure
am glad I am. Thank you. She'll be exalted. Then he said
in verse 12, now here's where we pick up to the Pharisee that
bade him, to this man, when thou makest a dinner or a supper,
call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsmen, or
your rich neighbors. And you're doing it so they'll
ask you to come. So they'll do something for you.
You're doing it for people that can do something for you. You
can get something out of it. That's what he said. That's how
they'll recompense you. That's why you do it. But when
you call, when you make, when you bid, make a feast, verse
13, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind. Who needs
them? Well, nobody. They need the feast. So, He's telling them, telling this
man, He's telling us about who God has called and who's going
to be in His supper. Verse 15. Now, let's start here. When one of them sat at Meat
and heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that
shall eat bread in the kingdom of God. Somebody was listening
to him, and he said that, and it's true. And our Lord gave
a parable, as it were, a story. And it's the story of who's going to be in his kingdom
and when. Verse 16, he said, a certain man made a great supper
and bade many, and sent His servant at supper time to say to them
that were bidden, Come, for all things are now ready." Supper. What is this supper?
It is the marriage supper of the Lamb. Revelation 19 says,
"...Blessed are they that are called to the marriage supper
of the Lamb." Blessed. How blessed. What a great supper
God has prepared for those who are loved by Him. Who love His
Son. Who believe on His Son. It's
called the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Now, you know the Scripture
speaks of two suppers. Doesn't it? You've read it in
the Gospel. Two suppers. Go back to... Go over to chapter 22 with me.
Luke 22. Two suppers that Scripture speaks up. Luke 22,
look at this. And those who are in the second
supper, they attend the first. Nobody will be in the second
who doesn't enjoy the first. Luke 22, look at it with me.
Verse 8. Luke 22, verse 7, there came
a day of unleavened bread when the Passover must be killed. What's the Passover? Jesus Christ. Christ, our Passover is killed
for us. And he sent Peter and John, his
servants, go and prepare us the Passover, this feast. Go, that we may eat. And they
said unto him, where wilt thou that we prepare? He said it was
a certain place. with a certain man, with a pitcher
of water, that's where it'll be. That's where it'll be served
up. Verse 10, Behold, when you're entered into the city, there
shall be a man meet you bearing a pitcher of water. That's what
I got in my hand right now. Follow him into the house where
he enters in, and he'll say unto the good men of the house, the
master saith unto thee, not ask, he doesn't invite, he didn't
invite this, did he? He commanded, he gave command.
This supper is going to be held in this place with my disciples. Follow him into the house where
he enters in. You say that the master saith unto thee, where
is the guest chamber where I shall eat? He's there. He's going to
be there with his disciple or two or three together to eat
the Passover. What's that? Eat his body and
drink his blood. And he'll show you a large upper
room. Is there plenty of room? Furnished. Don't bring anything. Make ready. Prepare yourself to eat this
supper. They went, verse 13, and found as he'd said unto them,
they'd made ready the Passover. Lamb. Unleavened bread. Lamb with bitter herbs. Unleavened
bread. And when the hour was come, verse
14, he sat down. And the twelve apostles with
Him, His chosen men with Him, and He said unto them, With desire
have I desired to eat this Passover with you. Told you to come to this place
where the Passover is going to be, feast is going to be held,
I'm going to be there with you, we're going to eat this together.
What, Lord? My body and my blood. You're going to feast on me,
with me. What's that? It's what we're
doing right now. Right now. You say, we're not
taking the Lord's table. Oh, yes, we are. I just told
you, the body of Christ, the Christ Crucified, we did all
the first half hour, didn't we? Feasted on His body and His blood. With Him, He said, I'll be there.
That's a supper. We're having supper right now
at 10.53. You know, supper is... I don't think Yankees call it
supper. They call it dinner. No, it's
supper. The Lord is the one that called it supper. It's the last
meal of the day, isn't it? It's the last meal of the day
right before you what? Rest. This supper. These are the last
days. He told His servant, go out quickly. Supper is ready. Go out quickly.
Go. The time is short. Don't waste
time. Don't mince words. Go out. It's
supper time. It's supper time. When you see
all these things, our Lord said, no, He's at the door. The door
is about to be shut. Strive to enter. Let me in. Why? I'm hungry. Supper time. Read on. And it says in verse
16, I will not eat any more eat thereof until it be fulfilled
in the kingdom of God. And he took the cup and gave
thanks and said, take this divided among yourself. I say unto you,
I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom
of God shall come. And he took bread. Gave thanks
and break it. Oh, break thou the bread of life,
dear Lord, to me." That's what we're, right now, let's hope
the Lord is breaking this bread of his word. Gave it unto them,
said, this is my body, which is given for you. This do and
remember to me. Likewise, also the cup after
supper, after supper, saying, this cup is a new testament in
my blood, which is shed for you. So it's two supper. Those who
feast on Christ and Him crucified will be in that Married Supper
of the Lamb. Those that don't know what it's
about, not going to be there. Those who are there just there
to, or just want to come in for the festivities, not going to
be there. The Married Supper of
the Lamb, those who are going to be in glory are those who
know why they're there, because of Jesus Christ. They are there
to do one thing, to rejoice and worship the Lamb who was slain
for them. That's right. Oh, what a great work of salvation,
taught a great supper. What a great work of salvation
Christ did on Calvary's tree. What great love, what great mercy,
what great grace, what a great sacrifice for great sinners.
Do you know anything about that? For great sinners, His own body,
Broken. His blood poured out. His soul
made an offering for sin. Blessed are all who are called
by the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Bidden.
Not just called, but brought. Fetched. Compelled to come to
Christ and eat His body. They know why Christ came and
they need His broken body. crucifixion on the cross for
them. They drink His blood. They sup with the Savior. That's
what we're doing right now, though we don't actually have the elements. That's what we're doing. Every
time we meet to preach the gospel, and that's what Christ said,
eat, eat, eat, feasting on Him. One man told me recently, and
I told you that, he said, I'm not being fed there. I have to
go somewhere else. I need something else. Well,
that told me that he doesn't really feed on Christ, because... You be the witness. What do we
preach? Who do we preach here? What do
we do here? Christ. That's all we got. If you don't like lamb, don't
come here. Now, who wouldn't want to be
here to hear about the lamb's lamb? Verse 17, and He sent His servants
at supper time, verse 17, He sent His servants to say to them
that were being, come, all things are now ready. Come. Supper's
ready. What's that sound like to you?
Supper's ready. Well, if you just had a big breakfast,
it doesn't mean a thing. I'm not ready. Hmm. Supper's ready. I'll tell you
what will make that sound sweet to you. If you're hungry. If you're hungry. One thing will
make this the best news you've ever heard. Hunger. Our Lord
said, blessed are the poor in spirit. Blessed are they that
mourn. Blessed are the meek, that is, those that don't belong
here, but I'm sure grateful to be here. Blessed are they that
hunger and thirst after righteousness. They're going to be filled. Hunger. Hunger. Our Lord one time stood
up after a great feast. After a great feast, they all
went to Jerusalem, to the temple and all that. And he stood after
his all over, said, ho, if any man thirsts, let him come unto
me. He said, I'll give you that water
of life. Out of his belly shall flow rivers
of water. Stood up another time, come unto
me, all ye that labor or heavy laden. I'll give you rest. Who does that appeal to? Those
that thirst him. Who does that appeal to? Those
that are tired, want rest. Who does this supper appeal to? Those that are hungry and thirsty.
Come, mercy, grace, forgiveness, peace. Come, I've got a complete,
finished work. Supper is ready. It's done. Righteousness, redemption, pardon,
reconciliation. It's all done. The work of salvation
is completely finished. Done. Ready. Who's it for? Who will come? Look at verse 18, there's a bunch
of excuses. Now look at it, verse 18 says,
they all with one consent began to make excuses. There was a
time when I had my excuses. And there is no excuse. We excuse ourselves. And there was a time when I excused
myself. They said, I pray thee, let me
be excused. Oh, that's not what you want
to pray. That is not what you want to pray. We need to pray,
oh, don't let me make excuses. Let me in. That's what it means
to strive. Strive against these excuses.
There was a time when I thought of every excuse. What's the problem? I didn't
need Christ. That's it in a nutshell. I gave
excuses, verse 18. One said, now these three excuses
take up everything. What you own, who you're joined
to, who you really love. He said, one said, I bought a
piece of ground. I must need to go and see it.
I pray thee have me, Jude. I bought a piece of ground. I've
got to go see to it. You're going to see to it, all
right. We're going to put you in it real soon. Yeah. You have some ground. It's waiting
on you. Pointed on the man who wants to die. Why would you perish
for six feet of dirt? Verse 19, others said, I bought
five yoke of oxen. I go to prove them. I go to plow
them. Didn't our Lord say in Isaiah
1, he says, the ox knows his owner. The ass is master's crib. My people don't know. I got to go plow with this oxen.
The Lord said, the plowing of the wicked is evil in the sight
of the Lord. Why? They can't stop for one minute,
one hour. to give praise to God who gave
them that ground and gave them that ox. He didn't give it, he
loaned it to them. Just stop. Go and give thanks
and you can go back. I have an excuse, okay? Your
excuse. Another said, I'm married. My
wife doesn't believe this. You're married to her then. Down
in verse 26 he says, you love your husband or wife more than
me, you're not my disciple. If she or he can keep you from
worshiping. You love them more than me. Okay,
you're excused. You're excused. So the servant came, verse 21,
and showed his Lord these things. And the master of the house is
what? Angry. Why? What's it about? It's a
marriage supper of the Lamb. It's God's Son that He sent to
this despicable planet for despicable people who didn't deserve for
Him to come. But He came to lay down His life. To give
His life, 33 years, His whole life served them, fed them, clothed
them, did for them. His tender mercies are over all
His works. Oh, He well deserves the praise,
doesn't He? Jesus Christ well deserves praise and thank-giving
from every human being on the topside of God's earth because
He's Lord of everyone and everything and gives to everyone everything
they have. Just stop! Come! Worship the
Son! That's all He has. Not has. That's
all He commands. That's all. Worship the Son. Let everything that hath breath
worship the Son. For a little bit. If you really appreciate and
love Him and thank Him and really worship Him from the heart, It
won't be a chore, it won't be a duty, it'll be a desire. It'll
be what your heart wants to do and loves to do. And you love
Him and fall in love with Him, you're married to Him. Never
mind your wife, never mind your husband if they don't know Him.
You do, you love Him, you come and, it's my husband. Can you
imagine a bride not showing up for her wedding? Oh, you've never heard such a
thing. If she really loves him, she's going to be there early.
If he loves her, it's the union. Married. It's called the marriage
supper. Who's going to be there? Those
who are married to him. Those who love him. Those who were
redeemed by him. Those who were saved by him. All right, here's what he said.
Here's what he said who will be in his kingdom at the marriage
supper. The master of the house was angry.
You don't appreciate my son? You don't need my son? I don't
need you. But go out quickly, because the
time is short. The time is short. It's the last supper. Go into
the streets and lanes of the city. Here's what you do. Bring
in hither. Don't invite. Bring. Fetch them. Pick them up. Bring them here. Who are they? The poor. What's poor mean? I hear people talk about we were
poor. People like to brag about how poor they were. They do.
One said, I was poor. Another says, I was dirt poor.
Poor means you have nothing. You've had food and rain, but
you're not poor. Our Lord didn't have anywhere
to lay His head. Right? He depended on His next
meal from God. That's poor. That's poor. He had nothing. Blind Bartimaeus
was poor. He was a beggar. Somebody brought
him and set him on the street in rags, blind, and he won't
get anything unless somebody gives it to him. He has nothing. You know what happened to this
blind, poor, blind man? Jesus Christ called and said,
go fetch that man. Bring him to me. That's poor. Poor in spirit. I'm a nothing. I'm a nobody.
I have nothing. I don't have wisdom. I don't
have righteousness. I can't sanctify myself. I can't
pay for one thing I've ever done. I can't make myself better. I
can't quit this. I can't quit that. I can't do
this. I can't do that. Help me! Oh, you're poor. You have nothing? I have it all. I freely give it. That's who's
going to be here. Go out and fetch them. Bring
them in. Tell them the gospel. Christ is poor. Poor. The maimed. That's who's
going to be there. Maimed. What's that mean? Disfigured.
Ugly. Ugly. Bruised and mangled by
the fall. We sing that song. Mangled. Man
thinks he's so beautiful. Man looks in his own mirror,
you know, and looks at himself. Woman looks at, look at how beautiful. Look at what I am. Aren't I something?
Boy, if you look in this mirror, you'll see a wretched, vile,
ugly, no soundness, a leper, through and through, from the
sole of your feet to the top of your head. No soundness, nothing
but a vile. Behold, I'm vile, ugly. Oh, are you ugly? Gomer. Gomer was once a beautiful
woman. She wasted herself, gave herself,
sold her body and soul to people for pleasure until she's a used
up, no good, worthless, haggard, old, ugly woman on the auction
block and nobody would pay a dime for her. And Hosea came by and
said, I'll buy her. And she looks up. Who's that? It's me, your husband. I've come to buy you. Me? After all I've done to you? Yes, you're coming with me. Put
her on his arm. This is my beloved. Ugly, maimed. Sin's ugly. It renders us ugly. Christ came to make us beautiful,
comely through his beauty. Took off his robe of righteousness.
His visage was marred more than anybody, and we got his beauty. Who wouldn't be at this supper?
Who wouldn't be here to worship him with that? Go out, he said, and get the
halt. That's lame. That means they
couldn't come if they wanted to, like my fibber chef. He should have died. He should
have been killed like his brothers, Saul's sons. But David, rich
in mercy, for Jonathan's sake, said, go fetch him. Go to the house of Lodabar, no
bread, and find that fellow who's lame on both feet from the fall
and pick him up and bring him to me. I'm going to show kindness
for Jonathan's sake. The blind. I already told you about barmaid.
The blind. Now look at this, verse 22. Is
that you? Is any of that you? Brethren,
if you know yourself, that's all of you. That's all of you. Blind, haught, lame, deaf, dumb,
ignorant, poor, maimed, haught, leper, dead. And the Lord sent
the Gospel through His servant, His Holy Spirit, to bring us
to God through Christ. In verse 22, the servant said,
Lord, it's done. It's done. As Thou hast commanded. And it has been done. This same
Gospel has been preached from the beginning. From the first
sinner, Abel, Adam, to the first one that died. He was theirs.
Abel, there was one man in glory for a while. named Abel, and
he was singing, Worthy is the Lamb, Worthy is the Lamb, Worthy
is the Lamb. And that's what he brought before
he died. God showed him. I said, it's done. This gospel
has been preached from the beginning of the world until now. It's
been preached, and people have been brought in. Who? Everyone
of them. Poor, maimed, lame, and blind,
every single one. The Lord brought them in through
the same gospel. You're not brought any other way but by the gospel,
by the truth. And he said, but there's room. There's room. There's still room. You know why the Lord hadn't
come yet? There's room. And I'm glad. The door of the ark is still
open. And I'm not asking people. The message on the radio this
morning, you heard it, didn't you? Did I ask anybody anything?
I just said, come. Come. We don't ask people to
do things for God. We don't ask people to accept
Christ. We say, come, though. We do.
Come. Come. There's room. Oh, don't
you hope and pray that one of those rooms, one of those places
is reserved for For one of your loved ones that doesn't know
the Lord, don't you pray? Don't you hope? Don't you hope? It's like, you know, the Lord
knoweth them that are His. They're His elect. And there's
a place reserved for each one of them, like a big table. We
often have people over for dinner and sometimes we put their names. We seat them and put their names
around them, you know. And you've been there, and you
go, and you look for your night. There it is. And you sit down.
All right, we all go, and we sit down, and here's one empty. And somebody says, can we eat?
No. We're waiting. Well, who's coming? Well, somebody's coming. There's room. Hang on. Wait. When he's here, it's over. We'll eat. And the door's open. I'm glad. I want him to come.
It's a paradox. I want him to come now. Don't
you, sister? But wait. There's somebody we
sure love to be with us. I got a son. I got a daughter.
I got a husband. I got a wife that doesn't know.
Oh, Lord, can they come? Would you let them come? Would
you make them come? He said, okay. The Lord said
to him, sir, go out into the highways and the hedges. Go lower. Go out in the highways. That
fellow is running off. He is running as hard as he can.
Where? To destroy himself. Run after him. He said, the Lord's
iron is not short, Brother Kelly. When he reached down for me,
he reached deep in this pit I was dug. Running just, he's running
just as hard as he can. Where's he headed? The wrong
way. Go after him. Stop his wild career. Turn him or he won't be turned. Fetch him. Grab hold of him. Lay hold of him. Like old Jacob,
Jacob was running. That's when the Lord met Jacob.
That's when Jacob met the Lord. Jacob was running from Esau,
running from everybody, running from home, running from everybody,
running from God! But God sent His servant, Jesus
Christ, and grabbed ahold of that old boy and wrestled him.
Put him down on the ground and said, now what's your name? What's
your name? Look what you've done. Look where
your head is. Huh? I got you now. I've got
you now. You're mine. I'm going to change
your name. I'm going to change your walk.
I'm going to change your heart. I'm going to give you everything.
You're mine. I bought you. I brought you. You're coming with me. I came
here to bless you. Go out there, compel in the hedges,
hiding. Compel them. Compel means force. You see, God doesn't force people.
To believe Him? If He doesn't, you won't. If He doesn't, you won't. No,
He doesn't violate our will. He most certainly does. If He
doesn't, you won't. He said, you will not come unto
Me that you might have life. That's our will. I will not believe. If God doesn't say, you will
believe, I won't. Bless God, one day He said, you
will believe. You know what I said? I do. I do. Someone said God brings
us against our will with our full consent. I understand that. Don't you? Go
out and compel them. Lay hold of them. Pick them up
to come in that my house may be filled. Everybody's going to be there
that Christ died for. Everyone that God chose is going
to be there. There's not going to be one of them missing, no.
Our Lord said, didn't He say, all that the Father gave me I
have kept. None of them is lost. Christ would be a poor Savior
if He'd lost one. He didn't lose one. Everyone whom God chose, everyone
who Christ died, they're going to come. He said, my sheep, all
that the Father giveth me shall come unto me. My house is going
to be filled. What's it filled with? A bunch
of lame, maimed, haunt, poor sinners. What are they doing? Praising Him. Praising Him. Grateful to be
there. Filled, their hearts are filled with His praise. Their
mouths are filled. Somebody asked me, do you have
to sing to worship? I said, yes, you absolutely do.
Yes, you do. You can't be in heaven if you're
not singing. Can you? Right now, they're all singing
the Word of the Israelite. Right now, they're all singing
the song of Moses. And this is the rehearsal dinner. This is the rehearsal dinner
when Hannah, our daughter, was married. And most of you did
this. We had a rehearsal dinner over
at this depot. And what did we do there? We
had big time. Who's it all about? The bride
and the groom. The groom. And those that would love the
bride, love the groom, they were there. Eating and drinking, nobody
brought a thing. It was all prepared for them.
It was all set up. What were we doing? Rehearsing
for the real thing. And it's coming a day when Christ
is coming for His people to bring them out of this place. up to
His heaven where they are going to do perfectly with a pure heart
and a pure mind, from the bottom of their heart to the top of
their lungs, doing what? What they are doing here. What
all of God's people do now. They are not looking for excuses
not to do this. They are all glad. Can I be there? What are you serving? Gospel. Oh, I will come. Can
I come? Well, sure you can come. You
poor? You lame? You maimed? You hot? You wretched? Yeah, it's me. That's the only ones that can
come. Come on. It's the only ones this gospel
means anything to. The others give excuses. And
none of them are good. And he said in verse 24, I tell
you, none of those men that were bitten She'll taste of my supper. And right after that, and we're
going to look at it on Wednesday, he said, if you don't hate everyone
and everything, you're not my disciple. Because what happens,
see, when you fall in love, when God, if God loves you, he'll
send this gospel of his son to show you what Jesus Christ has
done for you, and you'll fall in love with his son. You'll
love him and be more grateful to him than anything and anyone. He becomes your husband and you're
his wife. And you're devoted from then
on to his praise, to his worship. He is your life. You want to
live for him. You want to live with him. You
want to live with his people. He is your life. And if anything
or anyone takes the place of Jesus Christ, you don't know
him. You don't know him. The Lord made that clear. He
called it hate. It's what the world says. You
can't possibly love your family if you forsake them and worship
church. It's not the church. It's Christ. I'm not coming to the church. I'm coming to worship my Lord. Can I come? Can I be there? I'm hungry. Boy, I want to be
there. You want to be there? That's
all the fitness he requires. All right, let's sing in closing
number, I'll be right down. 289? 389. 389. I am resolved, and it says, there's
a verse that says, things that are higher, things that are lower.
That's where Christ is. He set our affection on things
about where Christ is. These have allured my sight.
389, let's stand.
