Second Timothy. Second Timothy. since time is flying by like
it is, and the return of our Lord rapidly approaches. And as this world gets worse
and worse and worse, and our Lord said it would. He
said, as in the days of Noah. So shall the coming of the Son
of Man be as the days of Noah, as the rains are falling heavily. Better get my heart. But as time is flying by, perhaps
I should preach, we should preach this, this book This third chapter
of Timothy should be preached more and more frequently, especially
to our young people. This message is to our young
people. Parents, I want you to make sure
your young people are listening. The whole letter of Paul is to
a young man named Timothy. How old he was, I don't know.
It doesn't say. A young man named Timothy. Look
at chapter one. In verse five, chapter one, he
says, I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith, the true faith
that is in you, which was first in your grandmother Lois and
then your mother Eunice. This young man, Timothy, his
grandmother and his mother heard and believed the gospel. And Timothy was raised up under
the gospel. And Paul urged him in chapter
three. Now look over there. Chapter
three. Paul urged young Timothy in verse fourteen. You got it? Paul urged young Timothy in verse
fourteen, Continue thou in the things which thou hast learned.
Continue thou as you grow older and as you get out in the world.
Continue. That is, think on. Act on, remember,
the things you've heard. What things? What have you heard? Well, verse fifteen, he says,
from a child you've known the holy scriptures, God's word.
Once you think about it, you've heard God's word, which he said,
in verse fifteen, is able to make thee wise unto salvation
through faith which is in Christ Jesus. He says, I want you to
think on God's Word, all that you've heard
preached. Think about it. Remember it.
Think about it. Act upon it. God's Word, which is able to
make you wise unto salvation. Now, young people, if you do
not yet feel that the Lord has revealed himself to you, you keep listening. Continue
to listen. Think on what you've heard. It's
able to make you wise. It's the only thing it is. God's
Word. Much wiser than your peers. You
seek the Lord. You continue to listen. God will
reveal himself to you. You seek the Lord. That's his
promise. God will reveal. Seek the Lord with all your heart.
He will reveal himself to you. All right, look at verse fourteen
again. Young people, look at verse fourteen. Continue thou
in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured
of. You've been assured of, knowing
of whom thou hast learned, not Paul, but God. You know these
things in your head. You know what you're hearing
is true. You know it. Don't you? Don't you? You know what you're hearing
is true, don't you? Huh? You know it's true. Nothing goes
on here but the preaching of God's Word. You know it's true,
don't you? You know it's true. And though you may be unsure
about yourself, your relationship with God, Your future, you may
be unsure about that, and everyone is. And though you feel the pull
both ways, the world, it's true. Continue, he said, continue to
hear and see, because you know these things are true. You know
it's true, don't you? I want you to nod your head,
I'm talking to you. You know it's true. Things you've been assured of,
knowing, knowing. All right? Look back at chapter
1. Look at this. I'm sorry, chapter 2. Chapter
2, verse 22. Got it? Chapter 2, verse 22. Flee youthful lusts. Flee also youthful lusts. Now,
he's talking to a young man here. Youthful lusts. What does that
mean? Well, young pursuits. Lust is not always talking about—I'm
going to use the word, they see it everywhere. Lust is not always talking about
sex, but anything that you absolutely are consumed with, desires. Young pursuits, he says, flee
young pursuits. Young pursuits, the reason he
calls them youthful lusts is because young people, when they
see something, they don't even stop to think about it. They
dive in. Young men, you know, while they
may be good workers, they tear up a lot of things in the process.
And old men have said it right, don't they Rick? God likes to
build this and wait to stop and think. You see, youthful pursuits,
youthful. Let's go after it. Youthful lust,
the world, and that does include sex, drugs, drinking, materialism,
fame and fortune, youthful pursuits. And older people are not necessarily over this. Well, youthful desires. Now, let me deal with this thing. God's word deals with everything,
God's word. If I sound flustered, youthful
urges, young ladies, men, young men, physical urges, you know
what I'm talking about. And God puts within the hearts
and the minds and the bodies of young people and old, desires
like this. There's nothing sinful about
those desires. God put them there. Right? There'd be no procreation
of the species. There'd be no reproduction of
the species. God put it there. These desires and the desire
to be married, desire to have a home and a family and a job,
there's nothing wrong with that. That's not sinful. Don't let
anybody tell you it is. Read Ecclesiastes, God's Word.
Read the whole book. It'll tell you that. Don't let
preachers tell you different. But these things are not sinful,
physical urges and natural desires. that God given, and when fulfilled
in marriage, when this physical urge that you, particularly young
teenagers, get is fulfilled in marriage now. Marriage, it's
good, and it brings about happiness with a mate and eventually the
real consummation of children. But outside of marriage, God forbids it. and there are dire consequences
of it. Outside of marriage, you better
curb your passions. You better curb your passions.
To release them to anyone at any time may be ruinous to you. It may be ruinous. In this day,
in these perilous times, it may kill you. It will certainly be ruinous
to a young girl's reputation from that day forward. It would
be hurtful to your marriage later on. You listen to me. Parents,
you want me to say these things? All right, but the world now
will tell you you need to express yourself, express your feelings,
doesn't it? The world says, do not suppress
your feelings. Do not suppress your feelings.
Express your feelings. Let it go. If it feels good,
do it. Express yourself, whatever it
may be, anger, attitude. Have an attitude, which is nothing
more than pride and anger and acting like a fool. Attitude. The world encourages that. God's
Word absolutely condemns it. You young people, you know it's
wrong, don't you, from God's Word. Don't you? You know it is. Don't experience
it. Don't do it until you have to
experience it and go through the gutter and find out. Take
God's Word for it. Can you hear me? Can you hear
Him? Surely you see what's happening
around you. Alright, and Paul describes our
day here in chapter 3. Look at it, 2 Timothy 3. He describes our day. You know,
it was his day too. Paul's describing 2,000 years
ago. And it sounds like he's talking
about 1999 here. Why? Because things are no different. Man's the same. Teenagers are
the same. You know, teenagers are the same
now as they were then. They were the same back then.
Teenagers, all a 14-year-old could think about when he was
Getting a little older is getting a new horse. Or a chariot. Oh, I'm just getting
my own set of wheels, man. I've got to drive Dad's old chariot. I need my own set of wheels,
man. And I need a few rubles or whatever the money was there.
A few shekels and a set of wheels and, man, I'm off the road. Ain't
no different. Who are you going with? There's no difference whatsoever. Paul is describing his day, and
it's the same in our day, two thousand years later. The only
thing is now, there are more people on this planet, and more
people. The restraints are fewer. That is, God is lifting his hand. When we talk about restraints,
we're talking about God's hand, God's restraining grace. God is lifting his hand off of
this world. He is, he's lifting his hand
off this world. It's obvious because it's becoming
more and more openly wicked, openly defiant, openly defiant. And God is moving his hand off
of this planet until it becomes harder and harder and harder
to find anyone with true faith in the true Christ with true
morals and true virtues. Our Lord said this, the Lord
Jesus Christ said this when he walked this planet. He said,
when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth? Is
he going to find anybody just worshiping God or just playing
religion? Is he going to find anybody trusting
Christ and Christ alone, really looking to Christ? Or is he going
to find the people with Jesus on their lips when their heart's
far from believing? that they need a righteousness,
that they need a blood sacrifice. Christ said that. When the Son
of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth? It's going to be
increasingly harder to find until God destroys this planet like
he did Sodom. Do you remember the story of
Sodom? Do you remember when Moses was interceding for Sodom? He
started out. I said, Lord, are you going to
destroy this city for 50? Would you destroy this city if
you found 50 righteous people in it? Do you remember? I said, no. And Moses went on down. Remember? Forty-five? No. Forty? No, I won't destroy it
for 40. Thirty? He got down to 10 people. Lord, if you just find 10 people, Sodom had about two or three
million people in it, according to some, at least a million. About the size of what? What city? What big city? I don't know, one major city.
At any rate, ten people? If you find ten people,
Lord, if you just find ten righteous Ten righteous, will you destroy
this city for ten? Ten people who worship God as
God, who have given God all the glory. I mean worshiping God,
not playing with ten. No, I won't destroy it, but just
ten. Surely we can find ten. Ten people who truly worship
and esteem the Lord Jesus Christ as all in salvation. Just ten,
just ten people, personally. No, you find ten, I find ten. Ten people, if you just find
ten people who believe sin is sin, like God said it, that homosexuality
is damnable behavior, that sex before marriage is absolutely
forbidden by God and condemned by God, just ten, just ten that
believe this way. Ten people that believe God's
Word is true, every word of it, that God's Word is true and not
up for debate, not up for argument. Ten people that believe God's
Word is true and everything else, man's opinion, no matter what
they read in the paper, no matter what anybody says, that everything
else is a lie, just ten. God says, if I find ten, I won't
destroy it. From Shannon, these three rows
right there. Ten. From the son of man comes, will
he find faith on them? Ten? All right, look at chapter three
with me. He describes this day. I hope there's ten in here. I
believe there are. Young people, look at it, all
right? Chapter 3, verse 1. This know also. Now, you know
these things are true, don't you? You know what I'm saying
is true. Your conscience says so. This know also, verse 1,
that in the last days perilous times shall come. Perilous means
dangerous times. Perverse, crazy, crazy times. Insane times. That's what perilous
means. Insane, absolutely insane. Crazy times. Things happening
that you just wouldn't have dreamed of years ago. Just twenty years ago, who was
afraid to walk down the streets anywhere? What child in any city
was afraid to go to school just ten years ago? School? Sure, that's a safe haven. Perilous times. Crazy. It's crazy. It's gone. It's gone
crazy. Why is it so dangerous? Well,
look at verse 2. Perilous times. Because men shall
be lovers of their own selves. On down in verse 4, it says,
lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God. They're out for
themselves, out for their own pleasure. You know, there was
a time, and this hadn't been too long ago. when a friend was
a friend. I mean friends that I made in
grade school were friends, and I'm speaking
humanly speaking, were my friends until we graduated from high
school and went our separate ways. And we were friends. Friend was
a friend. Even neighbors. Even neighbors were thoughtful,
considerate, kind, do anything for you, neighbors even. Loyal
might stick up for you in a pinch in trouble. A friend might even
lay his life down for you. Not now, buddy. It's every man, woman, boy and
girl for himself, unless it's a true believer.
This is why I tell you young people, unless you marry a believer,
unless your friends are believers, you don't have a friend. Unless
you marry a believer, you don't have a husband. He's going to
treat you like a husband ought to or a wife. Unless a true believer,
don't think for a minute that your friend won't sell you out,
won't walk all over you and turn on you and do anything against
you if it means doing something for themselves. Lovers of self. Read on. Behind this, verse 2, behind
this is covetousness. See that? Men shall be lovers
of their own selves. Covetous. Solomon, the wisest
man to ever live, said, Money answereth all things. Money will answer all things.
Money or material things, buddy. When you're young, you'll find
that the most popular, now see if this is not so, the most popular
ones are the ones who had the most toys. Is that right? The ones that
had the most toys, and even now, they're the popular ones. They
don't covetous, boasters, proud. Boy, if that doesn't describe
this day. Big talkers. Big talkers. Oh, what a proud
talkative. It's no coincidence that talk
shows are the most popular thing on TV. It's a sign of the times. This is a talkative generation.
Everybody's got something to say, usually about themselves.
Lots to say about themselves. Talkative generation. No restraints
to the boasting of this generation. No restraints. Used to be, if
you take an athlete years ago, used to be a man, although he
felt like he was the baddest dude on the planet, although
he felt like, you know, he was the greatest ball player ever
put on. Cleats. Cleats, Andrew. Cleats, spikes. Cleats. Used to call them cleats.
I used to wear big things, and the man, they'd tear you up if
he stepped on you. Big ol' spikes on our shoes.
You may have worn those. Had steel in them. Steel spikes. At any rate, a man might think
he was the baddest ball player who put spikes on, but he didn't
say so. He'd attribute all that to Mom, or you know, his coach
in Little League, and all that. But not now, buddy. Boy, you
had a good day, didn't you? Wasn't I good? Oh, wasn't I something? Can you believe me? Like Mark
McGuire said, I amaze myself. He did. He said, some days I
absolutely amaze at what I've done. Oh, what have you done? I hit
a little ball over a wall more times than anybody else. Oh,
well. Wow. You'll get a ball over a wall. Yeah, I did. Isn't that wonderful? Well, boasters. Proud. Read on. Blasphemers. Look at this. Look
at that. Young people, everyone, look at this word. Verse 2, they're
blasphemers. The last days, these crazy times,
blasphemers. If this isn't a sign of the time. You hear it out of everybody's
mouth now, don't you? Huh? Young, I mean young, young kids
found school say, Oh, God. And I hesitate. Nobody that says that. And for
that matter, older people say, Lord, have mercy. Oh, Lord. Lordy,
lordy. They don't know God. They don't
know. Every person in here turned to Exodus 20. Exodus chapter
20. Not long ago, we turned back
here and looked at something about graven images, didn't we?
Remember that? If you don't know where this
is found, we'd better find out. Exodus 20. You got it? Did you
turn? All right, Exodus 20. Look at
verse 7. This is God Almighty, I mean
God Almighty speaking. out loud. And he says in verse
7, Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.
That means ever use his name in any way, shape, form, or fashion. Print it, say it, use it. That's not in absolute worship,
fear, dread, glory, praise, thanksgiving for his glory. Ever use it. Flippantly, carelessly, needlessly,
Familiarly, constantly, ever use his name in any way. For, look at this, the Lord will
not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain. You say, what
an innocent thing, what a harmless thing. No, it's not. God said
he'll not hold them guiltless who takes his name in vain. And one of your young friends
is saying this, the wrath of God abides on them. And people don't even use, have
you ever thought about all of the references that are so similar?
Oh, gosh. Osh, kosh, my gosh. Where did that come from? found out when I was in England,
that bloody, you know, they used to say, oh, he's bloody good,
you know, he's bloody good. Blood, that had reference to
the blood of Christ. By Jove, you know, we always sing, well,
by Jove, you know, I've ignorantly said that, imitating the English,
you know what I mean? By Jehovah. Blasphemers. And this goes without
saying in religion. religion, all this constant use
of God's name and Jesus and the Holy Spirit, sign of the times
is blaspheming. Never been a more blasphemous
time than that. God's name is on everybody's lip, everybody's
bumper sticker. These billboards you see, they have some catchy phrase
and then it's supposed to be signed by God. Let me ask you something, what
would you do if somebody did that with you? What would you
do if somebody pressed you to the billboard and said such and
such said this and signed your name to it? What would you do? We're talking about God here. God's written one thing right
here. Any addition or subtraction from
it is blasphemy. Blasphemers. This is the time.
Sign of the time. Read on. All right? Read on with
me. Verse four. Verse three. Incontinent. That means they cannot subdue
their passions. Incontinent. That's what that
means. They cannot withhold their passions. No,
I'm sorry. I'm about to skip verse two.
Blasphemers. Excuse me. Disobedient to parents. Wonder who was going to make
me pass over that? Disobedient to parents. You see
that, children? Sign of the times. Perilous times.
Disobedient to parents. Teens. Now, teenagers. And please
forgive me. Andrew, Hannah, Catherine. I
was a teenager. I didn't have anything against
teenagers. I was one. And it can be a wonderful
time. It really can. It can be some
of the happiest, most memorable times of your life. Nothing wrong
with being a teenager. You can't help it. Teenager. I'm not picking on
teenagers. Please believe me. I just know
them. I know them. I was one. Teens have always, always questioned
authority. That's what happens when you
get, when you, some reason, when you hit thirteen, it's just,
well I know something don't I? Now, some reason, when you hit
that magical, with an een on the end of it, hey, mom and dad,
they're getting dumber, and I'm getting smarter. And that's getting,
that's wrong. Well I know, I know now. Teen, always question authority,
they always have. They always have, haven't they?
I grew up in the 50s and 60s and 70s. We questioned authority. It really started becoming open
and blatant in the 60s and 70s, didn't it? But your generation,
Henry, back in the teens and 20s, huh? No, back in the, you
know, back then, they didn't question authority, did they,
as a teenager? Why is Dad making me do that? Every teenager questions authority.
Okay? But now young people are being
encouraged to do so. You know that? They're being encouraged to do
so. That's why things are getting crazy. They're getting crazy because
there's no authority. Nobody has to listen to anybody.
I place the blame right here. In this pulpit, men are not preaching
a God who is just and who by no means clears the guilty and
who is angry with the wicked every day and who punishes sin.
They are preaching love, love, love, love, love. Read this, verse two. And I'm
not going to quit until this is done. This is too important.
Verse two. Unthankful. Oh, my. Unthankful. Well, they're not
only unthankful, but men, women, young people are belligerent.
Demanding. Give me what I deserve. Unholy. Unholy. Unholy means good, pure,
right, wholesome, virtuous, whatsoever things are true, honest, just,
good report, just, pure, lovely, good report, moral, virtuous. There's no absolute right and
wrong anymore, is there? There's no absolute right and
wrong anymore. And you're wrong if you say there is. If you call
something wrong, you're wrong. Look at this. Verse 3 says, despisers
of those that are good. You see that? Look at it. Last
line of verse 3. Despisers of those that are good. And in verse 3, the first part
says, the sign of the times is without natural affection. Natural
affection. This is not only talking about
homosexuality. Romans 1 speaks very clearly
that God's word is so clear about that. And this evil, evil, wicked
generation absolutely, absolutely refuses that. It's plain. You know what God's
word says about it. Don't need to go into that. This
is talking about natural affection in the affection of a mother
and a father, even. Listen to me now. Listen to me,
young people. Mothers and fathers now give up their new babies
to perfect strangers so they can drive a new Camaro. That's just not natural. Mothers and fathers will give
up their babies to perfect strangers so they can live in a new house. Used to be, years ago, there'd
be as much as ten kids in a house, and they might not even have
a floor in a house, but their kids were there, and they were
all pretty happy. They didn't have the latest of
everything, didn't have the finest car and the finest house, but
they were together, and they were happy. And those kids were
being taught by Mom and Dad, trained up in the way that they
should go. The sign of the times is a young
mother planning her return to work before her unborn baby is
even born yet. If that isn't the sign of the
times. You young ladies, you young girls, you listen to me
now. You listen to me very carefully on the basis of God Almighty's
Word. You put it in your head right now that if God ever makes
you a mother, you're going to stay home with that child. And
you're going to raise that child. Don't even think about getting
married or having children unless you decide that. You hear me? And don't you marry a man who's
not willing to support you every dime. You hear that, Sarah? Don't you
ever get interested in a man who's not willing to go to work
and support you with every dime he makes so you can stay home
and train up your child in the way that it should go. Because God's word promise is,
if you do so, it'll not depart from it when it gets older. And
there's no comfort for a mother who does otherwise. There's no
promise for your child. Did you hear that, young ladies
unmarried? Don't even think about it. When you become a mother,
that's your career. That's your career. You've got
a soul in your charge. Can you think of anything more
important? Can you think of anything that's more important than that,
that you would sacrifice? And the promise is, if you do
it, train them up in the way it should go, the world's not
going to. The daycare's not going to. They're not going to train
that child up in the way it should go. They're not going to tell
it what you'll tell it. It's a sign of the times, buddy,
a sign of the times. And I'm sorry if someone in here
is hurt and upset. This is God Almighty's Word.
Warnings and promises without natural affections, a sign of
the times. It's not too late, mothers, it's not too late. It's
not too late. Look at verse three. Trucebreakers. Trucebreakers. A person's word
used to mean something. Didn't it? A man said, I give
you my word. You want to sign something? Henry
used to offend a man if he... Didn't you, Joe? Pick on Joe. He's old now, too. He didn't
used to sign anything. You ever hear an old fella say,
sign something? Well, man, I told you, my words
good enough. All right, let's shake on it. Handshake. That'll seal it. Not
anymore, buddy. You better have it in writing.
False accusers. Look at the next thing. False
accuser. Not only had you better have it in writing, you better
have some insurance. Or they'll sue you. They're looking
to. Sign of the times, buddy. False
accusers, they're looking to sue you. Incontinent. Incontinent. Cannot, will not control their
passions and urges. Will not wait. And again, young
ladies, if you are dating a young fella and he just absolutely
will not wait, he refuses to wait, that means he doesn't want
you, he wants your body. If he wants you, he's willing
to wait on your body. If it's you he's in love with,
he'll wait. All right? And you'll find out
if you refuse him, he'll go find another body. Boy, you're talking
plain, preacher. Time is short. Perilous time. All right? Verse three, despisers of those
that are good. Young people, you young people
that attend services here, you know what's being preached here.
You've heard it for years now. You've grown up under it. You've
been taught, and you practice some sense of morality, don't
you? Virtue. You try to practice some
sense of virtue and restraint. You've been taught to do so,
haven't you? Do you feel alienated at school?
Do you feel different? Do you feel left out? Do you
feel a little bit different than your friends? Do they kind of, they don't quite accept you as
much as they do everybody else? That's why. This is why. Reverse fourth. Traitors, heady,
high-minded. Traitors, heady, high-minded.
Traitors. No loyal friend, heady, high-minded,
pride of intellect, cynical. Cynical. Lovers of pleasure more
than lovers of God. Oh, but folks go to church. They're
all religious, aren't they? That's what he says next. They
have a form of godliness. Yeah, they're religious. They
wear a cross around their neck. Sure do. They deny the power
of their lives. disprove their religion, they
deny a sovereign God, deny a sovereign, successful Christ, and their
lives disprove their religion. Look at, read on, verse 8. I'm
going to quit. It says, Janice and Jammer, they
withstood Moses, so do also, and he's talking about preachers
here, preachers that are men of corrupt minds. Used to be
a preacher. Now I'm talking about a man.
It was absolutely unheard of for a woman to be a preacher, because people believed God's
Word, and no woman would even think of it, because God's Word
expressly condemned it. Not anymore, buddy. Who cares
what God's Word? Who cares? There used to be a
preacher who was a man who had some sort of integrity about
him, some sort of honesty. There were two men in the community
back in the old country days. Two men in the community held
the were held in higher esteem than anybody else—the doctor
and the preacher. Well, not anymore. You'd be hard-pressed to find
one man in the public eye today that anybody has any respect
whatsoever for. And the way you see preachers
depicted on TV and so forth is this mealy-mouthed, silly little
poor, weak, fallen fellows, aren't they? Men of corrupt minds. That's why. Because it's the
sign of the time. A corrupt mind. Evil men and seducers wax worse
and worse. Read on. Verse 9. They shall proceed no
further. Their folly shall be manifest. They're going to be exposed.
They all do eventually. Verse 10. Now look at this. Paul says, You've fully known
my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering,
charity, patience. You know what kind of preacher
you got, Paul said to Timothy. In verse 13, evil men and seducers
wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. Like I said,
here's the whole problem. In verse 14, now, this is where
we started. Are you back with me now? In
verse 14, he says, but you continue, you continue in the things you've
heard. Things you've learned that you're
sure of. You know it's so. Knowing of whom thou hast learned
these things. And that from a child, verse
fifteen, from a child, you've known the Holy Scripture.
That are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith
which is in Christ Jesus. And what I'm saying in closing. to young people and old. What
I'm saying, Brittany, listen to that, Catherine, young people,
Jill, young people, if you go after the world, our Lord said this, if it's a
world you're after, if you follow the world, if you go after the world, You
know what you get? Let me tell you what you get. If
you gain the whole world. And miss Christ. You get a ticket
on the Titanic. You've just got your ticket on
the Titanic. And it doesn't matter if Leonardo
The Caprio's on there. She's going down. But there's
another ship. An ark that's going to float. And Peter said in Acts 2, Save
yourselves from this untoward generation. Get in the ark. Don't
miss Christ now. You know what I'm saying, stuff? Titanic? Ark? Huh? It's bad times, buddy, bad times.
They're going to get worse. They're going to get worse until
Christ splits the sky. The tree splits the sky open. I'm not practicing fear. We're
just preaching 2 Timothy 3. Isn't that a clear description
of our times? Oh, may God impress right this
on the table of our young people's hearts. Huh, mothers? Fathers?
Hmm. I know some mothers and fathers
sitting here now that wish their children were here right now.
Children and grandchildren. Timothy? You know what I'm saying to stuff.
You get on the arc. All right? Joe, what, you got
a hymn picked out? 127. And Sherry, you can either play or sing. 127.
Number 127. Stand with me. Let's sing the first second and
the fourth stanza. First, second, and the fourth.
Man of sorrow, what a day for the Son of God who came. Row on, sinners, to reclaim. Hallelujah! What a Savior! Clarin's name and scoffing grew
in my face and it was good. Spilled my pardon with his blood. Hallelujah! What a Savior! Lifted up was he to die, in his
tears was his cry. Now in heaven exalted high, hallelujah,
what a Savior. Thank you and you're dismissed.
