Now, the Lord Jesus Christ is
speaking here. And he says many things, but two principal subjects that he's dealing with, two things
that he is saying chiefly are these. Number one, he's talking about sovereignty
of God in salvation. salvation is of the Lord completely,
start to finish. And then he's saying this salvation
that is of God is through faith in Jesus Christ only. Now, this is Chiefly what he's
talking about here, all the way through chapter six, he talks
about faith as like eating bread. He calls himself bread. And faith
is eating his flesh and drinking his blood. Well, now I'm going
to be very plain this morning. Very, very plain and very dogmatic. Because Christ's words here are
very plain and very dogmatic. Well, Christ's words, you say they're
dogmatic? Well, they must be. Everything
he says is so. And these are foundational, this
is going to be a foundational message. Everything You're going
to hear, you've heard it, most in here have heard it countless
times, but you're going to hear it again. It's true. Now, here's what the Lord is
saying. The Lord is saying all the way
through here, he's saying salvation is totally up to the will and
the power of God Almighty. that no one is going to be saved
unless God decides to save them. That the whole work is of God. And it's not up to the will of
man. But it's totally up to the will
of God. This is what Christ is saying
all the way through here. He's saying that no one can be
saved No one can believe, even, unless God makes him believe. This is what the Lord is saying
all the way through here. Now, some people murmur at these
things. Look at verse 43. They murmured
back then at the truth, and some murmur now. There are no murmurers
in here. I hope you will receive this,
as I said, as a little child. But verse 43, Jesus therefore
answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
He heard them murmuring when he was saying these things. No
man can come. All that the Father gives me,
shalt thou Verse 44, No man can come to
me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him. And I will
raise him, or that one up, at the last day. No man can come
except God do something. Now, that is total inability,
isn't it? He's saying that man is totally
unable to come to God. to be saved, unless God does
the same. That's what he's saying, isn't
it? They knew what he was saying, and they murmured at that. No
man cannot be saved unless God saves him. Nobody will choose
God unless God chooses them. Look down at verse 64 and 65,
all right? Look at verses 64 and 65. And I hope you have a Bible,
because I don't want you to just take my word for it. This is
Christ's word. John 6, verse 64 and 65, he said,
There are some of you that believe not. Believe not what? Believe not what he just said. Verse, read on. Jesus knew from
the beginning who they were that believed not and who should betray
him. And he said, Therefore said I
unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given
unto him of my father." He said it again. Now, they didn't like
it the first time, and so what did he do? He said it again. No man can come, except it were
given him of God. And our generation likes to use
the phrase, accept Jesus as your personal Savior. Well, not only
is that not in the Bible anywhere, that's just not in the scriptures
anywhere. But if you're going to use the
word accept or receive, receive is in the Bible. As many as receive
him. John said, in John chapter 3
verse 27, John the Baptist said, a man can receive nothing except
it be given him from above. So no one is going to receive
him as their so-called personal Savior unless God in grace makes
them receive him. All right, now I hear this argument
all the time, and I'm sure you have, too. You mean if there's
somebody that wants to be saved and they're not one of the elect,
that they can't? I didn't say that. It doesn't
say that anywhere in the scriptures. Nobody's going to be saved. I
mean, no matter if somebody wants to be saved or not, they're not
going to be saved unless they're elected. That doesn't say that. Now listen very carefully. While you're listening, turn
over to John chapter 5. Turn back to John 5. You see,
man is totally unable, unable to come. Unable. Why is he unable? Why
is man unable to come to God? Why is man unable to call on
God? Nobody's going to call on God.
Unless God first calls on man, unless God makes him call on
him. Why is man unable to call? Why
is man unable to see the truth? The average man can look at these
very verses we're reading and say, I don't see it that way. What other way is there to see
it? Huh? What other way is there to see
it when Christ said, no man can come unto me except the Father
in drawing? Well, it's beyond me how there's
any other way to see that. Well, see, why is it that man
cannot? Because he's D-E-A-D dead. Now, didn't we read over in Isaiah
29, didn't we read that where it said, bring forth the blind
people that have eyes, the deaf that have ears. Didn't he say
that? He said it in Isaiah 43. Isaiah 52, we read it. He said,
I'm going to cause them to know. I am. He said, I'm going to. When our Lord got up on the Sabbath
day, When he turned 30 years old, he stood up to read on a
Sabbath day, as the custom was, and he read from Isaiah 61. And he said, The Spirit of the
Lord is upon me. He hath anointed me to give sight to the blind,
hearing to the deaf, and so on. Is he talking about physical?
Oh, he did that. But that's not what he's talking
about. See, a dead man is blind, he's deaf, and he's dumb. Isn't
it? A dead man. Isn't that right? And Ephesians
2 verse 1 says concerning all of God's people that he says,
he said, And you hath he quickened who were dead. And you hath God raised to life,
no less than Lazarus from that time. No less so than Lazarus,
dead. You're looking at a man who was
dead. And if God moved on you, you were too. And you know it's
so. You know it's so. John chapter
5, look at verse 40. Man's not only unable, because
he's dead. Verse 40, Christ said, You will
not come to me that you might have life. Not only is man, no man can come,
Ron, he's unable, but he's unwilling. That's what our Lord said, didn't
he? You will not come unto me. Man is not only unable, he's
unwilling. Why? His will is just as dead
as the rest of it. Men say man has a free will.
The Bible doesn't say that. Men do say that. Yeah, men say
that. The Bible doesn't say that. Well, preacher, what about whosoever
will? What about it? Who will? Who will? Listen to this. Listen very carefully.
Everyone that wants to be saved will be saved. But you see, that want to, that want to now, is the sovereign
work of God Almighty. No man can want to. He said no man can come. Coming
to Christ is wanting to come to Christ. Coming to Christ is
a man seeing his need of Christ. No man can want to come. Unless
God draws him. Unless God makes him. Man's unable. Somebody says,
and man's unwilling. Man's unwilling. He will not
come. He just will not come. Someone may argue, I hope not,
but someone may argue, well I was willing, and I came to God. And
I accepted Jesus, and I dedicated my life. You know what I say? I say you're still lost. Because ain't nobody in the Bible
ever talked like that. Abraham never said that. Abraham
said, I said in five years old was good as dead, but God called
me from idolatry and had grace on me. Abraham
never said he accepted Jesus or accepted God. Say Abraham
didn't know Jesus. Oh, yes, he did. Christ said
he did. Didn't he? Didn't Christ say
he did? Christ said it. Abraham saw my day and was glad. Moses never said anything like
that. Did he? Moses was 40 years old back keeping
sheep. He wasn't thinking about God.
God called him. Ruth. Ask Ruth. She was a stranger. A Moabite. A stranger to the
covenant of promise. God moved. God sent her a Redeemer. Ask Jacob. Did Jacob ever talk
like that? Did David ever talk like that?
Well, I was willing. I came to God. I accepted him.
I dedicated. Did Peter? What about Peter?
What was Peter doing when he was saved? Was he seeking Jesus? He's a bishop. What about Jane? What about John? Ask these boys.
Hmm? What about Mary Magdalene? What
was Mary doing? What was Mary Magdalene doing
when she was saved? Seeking the Lord, dedicating
her life to Him. What about Paul? Keep going. Has anybody in the
scriptures talked like that? Were you willing, Paul? Were
you seeking to kill everybody that believed on him? Were you
calling on him, Paul? No, but buddy, he called me,
and I hit the dirt. God sought me. You ask every
one of them. Every one in scriptures, and
they'll say, God sought me, God called me. Christ brought me. God the Holy Spirit brought me. I'm saved because God willed
it. I'm saved by the will of God. That's why I'm saved. By
the grace of God, I am what I am. Every single believer talks like
that, without exception. There's no exception. Everybody
in my family. My older brother was born in
Alabama, but the rest of us were born in Kentucky. We all talk
alike. Don't wait. You say I talk strange.
That's what a fellow said yesterday. He said, you talk strange. I said, well, I probably do. That's where I'm
from. We all talk alike. And so do
all of God's people. They talk the same language.
You ask them, Why are you, how are you say, they'll say, God
did it. I was watching some silly woman
on TV the other day give her so-called testimony, and she
said, I, a hundred thousand times, I this, I that, I that, I this,
I that, and then I did this, and then I did that. That's not the language of God's
people. You won't find them saying I
in heaven. I anything. I anything. You'll
hear them talking about him. The only one they're talking
about. The only works they're talking about is his work. Well, by the grace of God, I
am one of many wills and shalls here in chapter 6. Now turn back
to John 6. John chapter 6. There are many
wills and shalls here. But in one time, Sherry, there's
not one time does it say, if you will, God shall. Not one
time. What it does say is this. Look
at verse thirty-seven. What it, what it. That's bad. And what he says, what he says
is this. Verse thirty-seven. All that
the Father giveth me shall come to me. and him that cometh to
me I will in no wise cast out. Verse 39, This is the Father's
will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me
I should lose nothing, but should or shall raise it up again at
the last day. Verse 44, No man can come to
me except the Father which hath sent me draw him, and I will
or shall raise him up at the last day. Verse 45, it is written
in the prophets, they shall be all taught of God. If God wills it, you shall be
saved. You shall. If God wills it, a
man or a woman or a young person shall be saved. We say, but doesn't
a person have to call? Yes, but nobody's going to call
unless God first calls them. Well, doesn't a person have to
repent? Yes, but it's the goodness of God that will lead them to
repent. That's Romans 2.4. Well, doesn't
a person have to believe? Yes, they must, but it's the
gift of God. God must make them believe. A
person says, well, what's the point in all this, preacher?
If a person's going to be saved, they're going to be saved. What's
the point in saying all that? Huh? Why keep saying all that?
Why is it necessary to emphasize it? Why is it necessary? Because
God said it. Why is it necessary to say that?
Because Christ just said it twice. And Stan, that's what he tells
the preacher to do, go out and say what I said. Nothing more. Nothing less. What's the point? Why keep saying
it? Because it's so. And because God says it. Because
God says it. But chiefly, listen to this,
why say this? Why keep saying this? Why keep
emphasizing salvation to the Lord? Because God gets all the
glory. And this is what a preacher is
supposed to do. And this is what people are supposed
to come together to do. Give God all the glory. This is what this is all about. This is what this whole shooting
match is all about. This is what God created the
world and the universe all about, for His glory. He said, I'm not
doing it for your sake. He said this all the way through
the book of Isaiah. He said, I'm not saving you for your sake,
or that I need you. God doesn't need anybody. He
said, I'm doing this for my holy name's sake, for my glory. That's what heaven's all about.
That's why people are in heaven, to give God the glory. God is
determined to populate heaven with people who are going to
glorify him. Call it ego, if you will. He's got a right to
it. Yes, he is the supreme ego. Why? He's worthy. God's glory is what this thing
is all about. That's the point. That is the
point. What's the point in saying this?
That's the point. See, preaching is not principally,
primarily designed to get people to do anything or save people. It's to glorify God. And God gets glory in saving
people. And here's the mystery of it.
And the glory of it and the wonder of it is this is how He saves
people. By them just declaring that He does the saving. Isn't
that right? People say, He didn't give an
invitation at the end of the... We don't give invitations. The call of God is not an invitation.
Kings don't invite anybody to do anything. Huh? Does the Supreme
Court invite people to get on a witness stand? Do they? Do they send out invitations
to the Supreme Court and say, we invite you to appear in court
on the 24th? Now, it's an option. If you want
to, you can. You don't have to, but if you
exercise your free will and please grace our court with your presence
and decide to accept this judge as your personal judge. What
does it say? What is the call? It's a subpoena
that says you will be in a court at such and such a time. If you're
not, you'll be apprehended and you'll be brought there. And
that's exactly what the call of God is to every single one
of his people. It's not an invitation, it's
a powerful call. Scripture says it's a heavenly
calling, it's a holy calling. And he says, all that the Father
giveth me, what shall come. I don't know about you, but I'm
mighty glad it's that way, because I would never have come had he
not said, you're going to come, buddy. Aren't you glad, John
Davis? Aren't you glad this thing's
a sovereign call? If it wasn't, you wouldn't be
sitting there right now, would you? You'd be down there playing
church somewhere. And I'd be in the gutter wherever
I was. But God, that's my salvation
in two words. But God says sovereignly, powerfully, I've got a dog. You've already
heard me talk about my dog several times. And there are times when
I call him, and he won't come. And I get mad. I get mad. That's the one thing that makes
me madder than, I mean, the one thing that makes me the most
mad, the maddest, how do you say, the maddest? It was when
I call him and he won't come. Now, he killed a chicken. That made me mad. He drags his
bed all over the place. That makes me mad. He hides his
bowl everywhere and I can't find it. That makes me mad. He does
a lot of things that make me mad. He jumps up on my clean
clothes. That makes me mad. But when I
call him and he won't come, I really get mad then. You know what I do? I'm going to get him. And I'll
push him until he knows, you're going to come when I call next
time. God Almighty called. Now, God
doesn't have that problem. God's not a man. His ways are
not my ways. Isn't that power is not limited
like mine. A call, won't you please, Abner, please, please.
That ain't it. When God calls, He said they
shall come. He says, they shall come. That's
the word of his power. When he said, God said, let there
be light, was there any possibility that there would not be? Huh? When God called Lazarus from
that tomb, was there any possibility he wasn't going to rise? Huh?
Oh, no. See, the power is in the one
who's doing the calling. God calls and we come. Well,
is it really necessary for someone to believe this, to know this,
to be saved? Is it really necessary that someone
know this, believe this, to be saved? Well, yes. You know, I like to call Christians
I like to call us believers. He that believeth and is baptized
shall be saved. I like to call believers believers
because that sums it up. What it means to be a child of
God is you believe God. You believe God. No matter what
he said, what must a man believe to be said? What is it necessary
that we believe to be said? Hmm? Why, everything God said. If a person doesn't believe it,
they're not a believer, are they? He that believeth doesn't say
he doesn't understand it, does he? He doesn't say he doesn't
understand it, and he's baptized, but he doesn't say that, does
he? Doesn't say he can logically explain it, but it doesn't say
that. Didn't he say to Martha, if you
believe, you'll see the glory of God. If you do believe, it'll be by
the grace of God. Well, it's absolutely necessary.
See, this is the first lesson that every believer learns. This
is the first lesson every single believer learns. They learn The
first thing God teaches them is that salvation is of God. It's in God's name. That's the first thing. And you
know what that creates? Fear. When a person realizes that it's
not merely a thing that, you know, when you get good and ready,
you know, you'll get religious and you'll accept Him and that
ain't it. It's realizing when He gets good
and ready that He might save me or might not. It's up to Him.
That'll create fear. That'll create, that'll cause
a person to start calling, asking for mercy. Look at verses 44
and 45 again, OK? Verses 44 and 45. No man can
come to me except the Father which hath sent me draw him,
and I will raise him up at the last day. It is written in the
prophets that they shall be all taught of God. All taught of
God. I said this is the first lesson
that every single person learns. from God. This is the first thing
God teaches. They shall all be taught of God. You see, salvation is to know
some things, yes, but it's to know
someone. Our Lord said in John 17, 3,
this is life eternal. This is salvation, that they
might know thee. Can you quote the rest of it? the only true God and Jesus Christ
whom thou hast sent." He said, this is what it means to be saved,
to know the only true God and Jesus Christ whom he sent. Salvation
is to know some things, yes, but to know someone. So we have to be taught. No. All right, there are three things
here I want you to know, all right? Turn back to Isaiah 54
with me. He says, he said there in John
6 verse 45. Be turning to Isaiah 54, Isaiah
54, all right? And he said there in our text,
John 6, 45, he said, They shall be all taught of God. And that was it. They shall be all. All of they. They all. They all
shall be taught of God. All of them. Who's all? Well,
he already said it back there, didn't he? All that the Father
giveth man shall come to man. That's who the all is he's talking
about. He keeps saying that all he says, and they all shall be
taught of God. Who are they? All right. Look
at Isaiah 54 verse 13. Here's what the Lord is quoting
Isaiah 54, 13 and all. Thy children shall be taught
of the Lord, and great shall be the peace of thy children."
Now, he paraphrased that, didn't he, John? Great shall be the peace. Why?
Because every man that hath heard and learned of the Father cometh
to him who is peace." Who are they all here? This is what I
want you to see. Who are they all? Rebecca, who are they all
he is talking about? What did he say there in verse 13? God's
children. God's children. That's who. Everybody is not God's child.
That's what Romans 9 verse 8 said. Everybody is not God's child.
that there are children of promise. Children with a heavenly call,
by a heavenly calling, by a spirit of adoption. There are children.
And it's not all who decide to be, it's all who God decides
to be. All right? All that the Father
gives, all the children, all the elect, all the chosen, all
the adopted children of God. He says there, and I want you
to Note three things here in John 645. They shall all be taught
of God. Give me just ten more minutes,
OK? I've only been thirty minutes. Three things here he said. They
shall all be taught of God, number one. They shall be all taught
of God. They shall all be taught, they
shall be all taught of God. God. In other words, it's God
the one who's doing the teaching. Of God. God's the one who does
the teaching. God the Holy Spirit. Now turn
to John 13. John chapter 13. Turn over there. Search the Scriptures
with me, all right? See if these things are so. If
there's anybody, anyone who doesn't understand, then search with
me and we'll see if these things are so. All right? 13. This taught of God is taught
of God the Holy Spirit. Look at John and all his children
are taught of God the Holy Spirit. John 13, verse 33. Look at it. Christ said, little
children. Now, he calls them little children. Little children. You get a little
while, I'm with you. And he goes on. All right, turn
to John 14. So he's talking here to his disciples. All right? Now, Judas had already left. And he's talking to his disciples.
Judas had left. Son of perdition, who was so
from the beginning, left. Christ said, Get out. Didn't
he? He said, Get out. You have no
part in that matter. Didn't he, Sherry? That's what
he said. He said, What you going to do? Do it quickly. Leave. And he did. And now he's talking
to his disciples, and all which shall believe through their word.
All right, look at John 14, verse 16 and 17. He says, Now I will
pray the Father, and he shall, verse 16, he shall give you another
comforter, that he may abide with you forever, even the spirit
of truth, whom the world cannot receive. Can you say that? No man can, but you will. You're my child, and I'm going
to give him to you. He's going to teach you. Verse
26, But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father
will, God's will, will send in my name, he shall teach you all
things. All things. And bring all things to your
remembrance. What? What I've said unto you. Isn't that good? Look at verse
ten, back there in verse ten. Now, do you remember he said
they'll all be taught of God? Believest thou not that I am
in the Father, and the Father in me? The words I speak unto
you, I speak not of myself. This is God speaking. He's going to show you all that.
All right? John 16. Turn over to John 16. Stay with me, OK? Well, it's not me. This is Christ
speaking here. We're just looking at Christ's
Word. John 16. Look at verses 13 through 15.
John 16. He's still talking about the
Holy Spirit. And he says, when he, how be it, when he the spirit
of truth is come, the spirit of truth, he will guide you into
all truth. How much must a man know all
of it? All truth. He shall not speak,
what is all truth? He won't speak of himself, whatsoever
he shall hear he shall that shall he speak, he will show you things
to come." Read on, "...he shall glorify me," Christ, "...he shall
receive of mine, and show it unto you. All things that the
Father hath are mine. Therefore said I, that he shall
take of mine, and show it unto you." All right? See that? Taught of God, God the Holy Spirit. Secondly, the text says, "...they
shall be all taught of, or that is not only by God,
but taught of God. This is the first thing God teaches.
They teach Him who He is. He teaches them who He is. That God is God. Are you still
with me? Everyone, everybody that's saved,
they realize that God's God. Not like they're saying today,
that he just wants to be, and he will be if you let him. That
ain't God. Oh, no. They all know he's God. I mean,
he's God. Can I not deal with my own will?
Yes, you're God. Can I save who I will? Yes, you're
God. Whose will is it? It's God's
will. He's God. He's God's God. I'm God. If God's
God, there's his God. Who's God? God said, I'm God. There's nothing else. He said,
I'm going to show you. Didn't we read that in Isaiah
43? I'm going to show you. There's
nothing besides me. There's no other God right here
anywhere. I'm not taking counsel with anybody. I'm not asking
anybody anything. He said, I'm God. They'll all be taught that God's
God. Who's a saved person? They know
he's God. Right, Henry Ford? what Christ
said. They'll all be part of God! He said, I'm the Lord, there's
none else. I create good, I create evil, I create peace, I create
this and that, I do all things by God! Say, I don't like that. He's
as if God does. He that is of God heareth God's
words." They say, yes, he's God, and they bow in the dust and
say, do what you will, do what you will, you are God. And they
fear and they tremble. There's no fear of a God who
loves everybody. There's no fear of a God who wants to and can't
unless men let him. That ain't God. There's no fear
of a God who has no hands but your hands. I'd whip him. I'd
whip any no-arm man any day. Bring him on, Henry. A man with
no arms, I can whip him and put him in the dirt. And I'd whip
that God. I like what that old farmer said
to that young so-called preacher one time. The preacher said,
won't you accept Jesus? He said, no, I don't want to.
He said, well, if you don't, he'll send you to hell. I said,
no, he won't either. He wants to save me and can't unless I
let him try to send me to hell. I won't let him do that either.
That old farmer had more sense than that preacher, didn't he?
God says, cannot I do with my own what I will? What do God's
people say? Yes, you do. You can. You shall. You're God. What am
I? A creature, a creature. What am I? Clay. He's the potter. They'll all,
without exception, cross the board. No murmur. They that erred
shall come to understand and know this doctrine, that God's
God. They don't shout, preachers.
There ain't no other way to say this. There ain't no other way
to say it. This is what he said to Isaiah.
Get on the rooftop and shout it! The God-ravens! All places, crash! Do you like this? Then you're
up to God. That's a good reason to
shout, isn't it? Because you know, if God's got
an iron in His hand and He has purpose to save me, then all
things work together for good. My good need nothing going to
harm me. If he says, I give unto them
eternal life, they'll never perish. I say, whoopee, I'm so glad God's
God. and that he will do exactly what
he said he will do. And not even he's going to stop
it. Not like that. They'll all be taught of God. And you know what the end of
day is when they're taught of God. Our Lord said in John 6,
45, Every man, therefore, that hath heard and learned of this
God, what are they going to do? They're going to come to Christ. They're going to come to Christ.
Cometh unto me, Christ said. Cometh to Christ. They're going to repent. They're
going to repent of their sins. Why? Christ said it, didn't he,
in John chapter 9. He said, because of me, it's
all the Spirit's going to give repentance because of me. What are you talking about, preacher?
Well, our Lord said, he'll convince of sin because they believe not
on me. Didn't he say that? What that means is that if anybody
tries to get to God any other way than by Jesus Christ, God's going to spew them out
of his mouth. God's going to cast them into
hell. If anybody believes that there's anything they can do
that God is going to be pleased with, and God's going to reward
them and bring them into heaven, God's going to convince every one of
these children of his that there's one way you're going to get to
this God who's God, this God who You're, it's a terrible,
scripture says terrible. Understand, terrible. To be feared. Who does what he will with his
own. This absolute monarch, despot. God is an absolute despot. He
causes fear and trembling, but there's one. There's one who
came. The Son of God. Who said, now, You come to God by me. I'll take
you there. You can't deal with God. God
is a consuming fire. Consuming fire. No man hath seen
God nor can see God at any time. I have. I am. You come unto me and I'll get
you there. You come unto me. You can't live
the life that this God demands of you. You can't do it. I can.
And I did. You'll only get there if I say
so. So we come to this cry. We please,
please, Lord, would you? You can't. You must have this
righteousness that I worked out. Christ says you must, he said,
accept your righteousness, exceed the righteousness of the scribes
and Pharisees. You've got to be the best person
to ever live on the earth to give to God. And that he won't
give. He said, you're not going to
enter heaven. He said, I am. I'm going to walk right on in.
A man. I'm going to walk right on in to heaven. And you're going
to get there if I hide you. If I put you under my robe. So they come to him. Will you
get me there? Will you please? Will you be
my righteousness? Don't they jump. Will you be
my righteousness? I've tried and failed miserably.
Would you? He says, now, God's got to punish
your sins. You've got to die for your sin. Or I'll die for you. What'll
it be? We come to Christ. Would you
be the propitiation on the mercy seat for my sin? Would your blood,
would you please make your blood cover my sin and pay for my sin?
They come to Christ. This is what the Holy Spirit
teaches. And no man comes unto the Father but by him. And they
all, they all come with the same profession, the same profession
that Christ is offered. And in all, in my all, all my
hope of glory, all my salvation, salvation is of the Lord, the
Lord Jesus Christ. And they all, this is the profession,
the confession of all of God's people. who are taught of God,
taught by God, taught who God is, they believe Christ, and
Christ only is their salvation. Do you? I hope so. I hope so. Brother Joe, you got a pen picked
out? What is it? 125. And I hope that you'll forgive
me if I get a little excited. And I forgive you for not getting
excited. God's people are going to be
very excited in glory about the fact that he's God and the fact that Christ is a
man in glory. They're going to be real excited
about that. And I'm a mighty poor example
of a preacher. of this truth, this is the most
glorious thing. This is just the message. All right. Number 125. Jesus painted all. Stand. Let's
sing the first and the last then. First and the last. I hear the Savior say, Thy strength
in His power. God of weakness, help Him pray,
Find in me my all in all. Jesus made it all, all to Him
I owe. In and out the crimson day, He washed it white as snow. And
with Him for the throne, my sin is never complete. Jesus died my soul to save, my
life shall still repeat. Jesus paid it all, all to Him
I owe. And at the Prince's day, he watched
it by the snow. Thank you for listening. Thank you, buddy.
