All right, thank you, Jerry. I want
you to turn to two passages of scripture. The first one's found
in Exodus chapter 17. The other ones found in first
Corinthians ten. Exodus seventeen we'll read a
few verses and then turn to first Corinthians ten. Got it. Exodus seventeen first. Seven verses. All the congregation of the children
of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of sin after their
journeys, according to the commandment of the Lord, pitched in repudium,
and there was no water for the people to drink. Wherefore, the
people did chide with Moses and said, Give us water that we may
drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide you with me? Wherefore
do you tempt the Lord? And the people thirsted there
for water. And the people murmured against Moses and said, Wherefore
is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us
and our children and our cattle with thirst? Moses cried unto
the Lord, saying, What shall I do unto this people? They be
almost ready to stone me. And the Lord said unto Moses,
Go on before the people, and take with thee of the elders
of Israel. and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest
the river, taking thine hand, and go. Behold, I will stand
before thee there upon the rock in Horeb, and thou shalt smite
the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people
may drink." And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of
Israel. And he called the name of the place Massah, or temptation,
and Meribah, or strife, because of the chiding of the children
of Israel, and because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord
among us or not? Understandest thou what thou
readest? Turn to 1 Corinthians 10. Do
you understand? That passage, I believe you do. I saw the light of knowledge
in your eyes when I asked you that. 1 Corinthians 10 gives
the answer, doesn't it? 1 Corinthians 10, verse 1, Moreover,
brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that
all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through
the sea, were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the
sea. and did all eat the same spiritual meat, and did all drink
the same spiritual drink, for they drank of that spiritual
rock that followed them, and that rock was Christ. And so was the cloud, and so
was the sea, and so was Moses represented there, and so was
the meat. It's all Christ, isn't it? Christ is all. And that rock
was Christ. And if you understood that by
reading Exodus 17, if you caught that by reading it the first
time, blessed are you, highly favored among men and women.
You are, if you understood that. Everybody does it. There are
some preachers that don't. We are some of the most blessed
people on earth. that we have that understanding,
that these things have been revealed unto us. We have been given the
unspeakable gift of a revelation of Christ to our minds and hearts
from the pages of this book. All men have not faith. There
are many professing Christians, but there are few who truly possess
a saving knowledge of Christ. How do I know that? Well, I give
the answer that our Lord gave. The Pharisees, when they talked
to him about some scriptures, he said, You do err, not knowing
scripture, nor the power of God. You see, both those things speak
of Christ. The scriptures are they which
testify of Christ. And the power of God is Christ. He's the wisdom of God, the power
of God. And there are countless sermons
that are preached from this book with very little, if any, mention
of Christ from them. You've heard many of you came
up through religion and heard many, many sermons from perhaps
stories like this without a mention of Christ. And I say they do
err not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God. Countless
sermons. which are nothing more than history
lessons, moral story, inspirational, motivational messages to try
to inspire the people what we ought to be, what we can be,
with virtually no mention of Jesus Christ, no savor of Christ
from them. And I say they do err not knowing
the scriptures, nor the power of God. And I say you are blessed
if you do, if you can read passages like this and see Christ in them,
because the scriptures are they which testify of Christ. And
that means all of them. Like Christ on the road to Emmaus
when he opened up their understanding that they might see him from
the scriptures. He says he began in the books
of Moses, that's Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy,
and the Law, and the Prophets, and the Psalms. That's all the
Old Testament. And expounded unto them the things concerning
himself. And so Christ is the theme of
the Old Testament. If a man believed that Christ
is the power of God, and Christ is—if he knew that Christ was
the theme of the Scriptures, then he'd preach Christ, wouldn't
he? And if he would preach that,
if he would preach Christ from the Scriptures, if he would preach
the gospel, the people would hear it. The Scripture says they
would hear it, and by God's grace, if they believed it, they'd be
saved. They'd be justified, sanctified, regenerated, changed. conformed to the image of Christ?
You remember me telling you about going to a conference a few years
ago, and a man preaching from Jonah chapter 2? Now, you know
what is in Jonah chapter 2, don't you? Huh? Now, that's our watchword,
Jonah 2.9. Somebody would ask me or you
for a verse of Scripture that would In a nutshell, tell them
what we believe. You better know what Jonah 2.9
says. That's where we'd go. That's where I would go. Next,
I'd go to 2 Corinthians 5.21. But Jonah 2.9 says salvation
is of the Lord. I mean, that's the scripture
of scriptures, isn't it? That's our watchword. That's
what we say time and time again. You remember me telling you of
a man getting up and preaching from Jonah 2? and spending about
forty minutes on how that whale swallowed Jonah and then spent
five minutes on verse nine and then spent another ten on how
he vomited Jonah. And I wanted to vomit. Literally. I was so mad at that fella to
the spit nails of somebody that sat there. I sat the other day and listened
to another man preach from Exodus 17. And he never mentioned the name
of Jesus Christ one time in the whole course of his message. He never mentioned Jesus Christ's
name in the whole course of his message. From Exodus 17. A so-called gospel preacher. He did mention, he said, Christ
one time when he talked about his father accepting Christ as
his personal Savior, and some sentimental story. Well, this
whole story here in Exodus 17, as every story in the Scriptures,
is written to point us to the Lord Jesus Christ. That's the
whole reason this took place, isn't it? That's the only reason
God Put this in the Bible. Yes, it is. They are they which
testify of me. The whole story is written to
show us Jesus Christ. Everything in this Exodus 17
points to Christ. Everything in the Bible points
to Christ. Everything is written to glorify Christ, to increase
our faith in Christ, to point us to Christ. Everything. Yes,
everything. We are just like these children
of Israel here in Exodus 17, rebellious as they were, in the
wilderness of sin as they were, who chided with Moses as we do,
who tempted the Lord as we do, who murmured against Him as we
do, time and time again as we do. Look at chapter 15. Look
back at chapter 15. It begins back there, and we
read in Psalm 78. Psalm 78 is a rehashing or a rehearsal of what happened
here in these three chapters. Psalm 78, he gives us in a short
psalm what happened in Exodus 15, 16, and 17. Exodus 15, look at verse 23 and
24. It says that when they came to
Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they
were bitter. Therefore, the name of it was called Marah. And the
people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
And he cried unto the Lord, and the Lord showed him a tree, which
when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet. That's
Christ, isn't it? That tree is Christ who is cast
into this cesspool, the cesspool of this world, who is cast into
a world drowning in sin and made made us sweet. He was sweet. Sin left a bitter taste, but
Christ's blood is sweet. That's a picture of Christ, isn't
it? Look at chapter 16. Chapter 16 begins with and. And again, they took their journey
from Elam, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came
into the wilderness of sin. Verse 2, And the whole congregation
of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the
wilderness. It begins with and. It tells us they went on. They
went from one place to another, murmuring all the way. They murmured
to begin with, they murmured on the way, and they murmured
when they got there. Murmuring. And they murmured again. Verse
4, Then said the Lord unto Moses, Behold, I will raise bread from
heaven for you. And the people shall go out and
gather a certain rate of it every day and so forth. He said, I'll
rain from bread for you. And it says down in verse 15,
the children of Israel saw it. They said one to another, what
is it? Or it is manna. They didn't know what it was.
What is this holy thing? And Moses said unto them, this
is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat. Do you understand
what you read? That bread is Christ. Christ
said, Moses didn't give you that bread. He said, I'm the bread
which came down from heaven. So they all ate that bread, and
that bread was Christ. So, chapter 17, it begins with,
And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed
from there. They forgot the Lord's blessings time and again, didn't
they? And pitched in the wilderness, and there was no water for the
people to drink. Therefore the people did chide
with Moses, and murmured and said, Give us water, what that
we may drink. It begins with and, I believe,
to show us to keep reminding us of the Lord's continued mercy
and grace and longsuffering and patience with them in spite of
their continual murmuring And the people murmured, it says,
against Moses, they chided with Moses. And it says, Moses said,
Why chide you with me? Wherefore do you tempt the Lord? It was really the Lord they were
murmuring against, to his providence and their lot in life. And I say unto you, from these
verses of Scripture, All scriptures are given by inspiration
of God and are profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for rebuke,
and I say in reproof and rebuke to us, don't murmur, don't complain.
Don't be like these children of Israel. Don't do it. Don't sin against the Lord. Don't
tempt the Lord. Don't murmur. Don't complain. Be thankful. But we do it anyway, don't we?
I say, little children, I say unto you, don't sin. Sin not. I write unto you, I preach unto
you that you sin not. But you're going to. That which
is flesh is flesh, you're just going to. I'm going to. I write
unto you, I say unto you, sin not. Murmur not. But when you
do, I'm going to go on to say, we have an advocate. And I heard
that man preach for 45 minutes on, don't do it, don't murmur,
don't murmur. And I agree, I shouldn't murmur,
but I do. And he never told me about the
smitten rock. And I write unto you, don't do
it, don't murmur, but that's all I want to say about it. Now
I want to talk about the rock. Thank God we have an advocate.
We have a rock smitten for us. Verse 4, smitten for us, God
ought to smite us on the cheek, shouldn't he? for murmuring.
Well, he smote his son instead. Moses cried unto the Lord, verse
4. Moses was God's servant. He represents Christ right here.
He represents Christ, whom the people murmured at and strove
with, didn't they? They murmured, even his
disciples. His mother said, Give him something to drink. Everybody
strove with him. Moses said, verse 4, What shall
I do unto this people? Well, he ought to cast them out,
what he ought to do. He ought to condemn them. He ought not to do anything for
them, what he ought to do. What shall I do unto this people?
They'd be almost ready to stone me. They were ready to stone
Christ on every hand, weren't they? Listen to the Scripture. Moses became their advocate,
and Christ our advocate. It says when he was reviled,
he reviled not again. When he suffered, he threatened
not. Moses, did you notice? Moses didn't turn on the people
and say, you rotten—he did another time, but he didn't hear. He didn't turn on the people.
He turned to God, didn't he? And that's the type of Christ
that says when he was reviled, he reviled not again. When he
suffered, he threatened not, but committed himself to him
that judges righteously. That's just what Moses did there.
And he said, what shall I do unto this people? They'd be ready
to stone me. What's Christ going to do with his people? What's
God telling me to do? Give them water. You do what they need in spite
of them. You do what they can't do. You
provide for them what they can't provide. You give them what's
necessary to stay in their life in spite of them, in spite of
their sin, in spite of their murmurings, in spite of their
rebellion, in spite of them, give them what they need. Verse 5, the Lord said unto Moses,
Go on before the people. That's a picture of Christ, isn't
it, who went before us, went before the people. And it says,
Take with thee the elders of Israel, and thy rod. What's that? That's the law and the prophets,
the law represented by the rod, and the elders, the prophets. Christ fulfilled all prophecy
and fulfilled all law. He went before us and did all
that. He went before us, between us
and God. And that rod also that he took in his hand is the scepter
of righteousness. God said, Take that rod that
you smote the river that enabled them to go across with. He prepared
a way for them. Take that rod. That's the rod,
that scepter of righteousness, isn't it, that Christ prepared
a way for us to go over? into God's holy presence, that
righteousness He provided for us and made a way for us to cross
over to God. Verse 6, and He says, Behold,
I will stand before thee there upon the rock. And that rock
was Christ. Everything here is Christ, isn't
it? Moses, the rod, everything is Christ. Look at Deuteronomy
chapter 32 quickly, and I will try to hurry tonight. Deuteronomy
32. Look at this. Several other mentions of the rock. Deuteronomy 32. Oh, blessed are you if you understand
what you're reading. Verse 4, it says, He is the rock. The rock. He is the rock. His work is perfect. All his
ways are judgment, a God of truth, and without iniquity, just and
right is he. Verse 15, well, verse 13 says,
he caused us to suck honey out of the rock. Honey out of the
rock, John, and out of the plenty rock. That rock there is two
different words. One of them means high rock,
and one of them means hard rock. Verse 15, But Jeshurun waxed
fat, that's Israel, and kicked, kicked against the prick. Thou
art waxed in fact, or were grown thick, thou art covered with
fatness. Were rich and increased with good, and have need of nothing.
Forsook God, which made him, and lightly esteemed the rock
of his salvation. Look at verse 18, Of the rock
that begat thee, thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed.
He's that rock. He's the rock. Every mention
of the rock. He's the rock. Not a rock. There
is no rock. He is that rock. He is that rock. I saw a bumper sticker today.
It said, it said, what did it say exactly? It said, my God
is a good God. You see what's wrong with that?
My God is a good God. That sounds like there's more
than one. Mine's a good one. Yours is what? There's other.
No. The scripture just says God is
good. Not a good God. There is no other
God. Here, O Israel, the Lord our
God is one God. You could say, you could rightly
say, the one God is good. Well, the one rock. Christ is
the rock. The one rock. Look at Psalm 18. Turn over there real quickly.
Psalm 18, and it's also found in 2 Samuel 22, is Psalm 18 as well. It says, Psalm
18, verse 2, Psalm 18, verse 2, The Lord is my rock and my
fortress. My deliverer. Verse 1 says, I
love thee, O Lord, my strength, or my rock, is what 2 Samuel
says. My rock. The Lord is my rock,
and my fortress, my deliverer, my God, my strength, whom I will
trust, my buckler, the horn of my salvation, my high tower. The Lord is my rock. Isaiah said
it. He said, A man shall be a hiding
place, the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. Isaiah
said it. David said it. Moses said it. The rock, that rock is crap. Notice a few things about a rock
with me, would you? Notice just a few things with
me about a rock. Number one, a rock is a thing
of strength and stability. A thing of strength and stability. If your house is built upon a
rock, it will withstand rain. flood, winds, storms, it'll stand. Why? It's built on the rock. Our Lord gave that parable, didn't
He? He said there was a wise man that built his house on the
rock, and the rains came, and the flood rose, and the wind
blew. That's every form of trial that you could have. Trials from
above, trials from beneath, trials from within, or you don't know
where the trials come from. inward, outward, heavenward trials
from all over. If you're built on Christ, if
you're standing firm on the solid rock, if you're grounded and
settled on Christ, you'll not be moved away from your home.
It'll stand. Your house will stand. Your soul
will stand, sure, if it's on a sure rock, built on the rock. But the song says, Now I hold
not the rock, but the rock holds me. The rock calls me. Yes, the rock calls me. I'm builded
on the rock and the rock calls me. Builded on the rock of God. A rock is a thing of strength
and stability. We have no strength. His strength
is made perfect in our weakness. Number two, a rock is a thing
of durability. A rock will stand firm for years,
ages. Rocks stand for ages. The rock
will stay the same for years, yea millennium. I'd venture to
say the peaks of Otter are the same as they were when God first
created this planet. Wouldn't you? I bet they haven't
worn away one inch. I believe that. Nothing moves
them. Rocks, nothing changes them. They're the same yesterday,
today, and as long as they're around, forever. That's Christ,
isn't it? The solid rock. Don't you like,
I like people that don't change. I like people you can depend
upon. People are the same. About up and down all the time.
Don't you can depend upon them. They're worried good. There's
not many people like that. I'll tell you one that is. You
can always depend on him. If he's a friend, oh he sticks
closer than a brother. He never changes. Whatever he
says goes. Wherever he says he'll be, he'll
be. He says he'll help you, he'll help you. I'm having trouble
getting workers around here to come when they tell me they want
to come upstairs. They say, I'll be there tomorrow. Well, that
means next year sometime. I mean, last year, a month, a
week ago. They just don't come when they
tell you. Well, when he says, I'll be there,
he'll be there. He said, I'm an heir for present
health and time of trouble. Call me, I'll come. Christ is
the solid rock, the rock of ages. A rock is also a thing of elevation. I said that one mention of rock
there in Psalm 18 says, or Deuteronomy says, a high rock. We read that in Psalm 78, didn't
we? Our God's high. God is high. A rock of elevation. Rocks stand high above all, don't
they? Rocks do. They stand higher above
this earth than anything else. or went to Colorado and stood
on the top of a mountain in the middle of February, and the wind
chill was about 50 below zero. There were no trees up there.
You know what was up there? Rocks. That's the reason they
call them the Rocky Mountains. When you get up so high, nothing
will live, nothing will stay, and no life form can make it
up there but rocks. Just rocks. And Jesus Christ
says, I'm from above, you're from beneath. I'm over all, I'm
above all. Listen to this, and he lives
forever. Listen to this, I love this.
It reminded me of this, Deuteronomy 32. See now, that I, even I,
am he. Who's speaking? Christ is speaking. If you believe not, Henry, that
I am he. He shall die in your sin. Without
faith it's impossible to please God. He that cometh to God must
believe that he is, that who he is, that Christ is God. See
now that I, even I, am he. Who are you? They said to Christ.
Well, the same that I said to you from the beginning. In Exodus
20 when I said, I am that I am. In Deuteronomy 32 when I said,
see now that I am he. Even the same. who's a key to
use this measure I am. So you know we need to say now
that we see didn't need to see now. Salvation is seen now that
he is he. That Christ is God. The Jehovah
Witnesses are going to see it someday. They're going to see
him as he is. How is he? God. Seated on the
throne. They claim to worship Jehovah
someday they're going to. And Jehovah is Jesus Christ.
And every knee shall bow. The Mormons are going to see
it. But salvation is to see it now. See now. See now. Blessed are your eyes, Joe, if
you see that now He is God. That I, even I am He. There is
no God with me. Either Christ is God or the biggest
liar to ever live. Most blasphemous man ever to
walk on this planet. He said, I kill, I make alive.
Didn't Revelation say he has on his belt the keys of hell
and death? This is Christ talking. I kill, I make alive. I wound,
I heal. Go tell John that people are
being healed. Who can heal but God? See now
that I am healed. Neither is there any that can
deliver out of my hand. He said that, didn't he? I lift
up my hand to heaven and say, I live forever. No man taketh
my life from me, Christ said. Yes, Christ did. See now, that
I am He. He's that rock that only lives
above. Nothing else can live. He lives,
and because He lives, we live. In Him we live and move and have
our being. Oh, then to the rock let me fly,
to the rock that is higher than I. to go and to live in a place
where no flesh can live, a place higher. Now, back to
Exodus 17. Let's look at the smitten rock
very quickly. Christ is that rock, isn't He?
It's obvious. He's in every verse here. What shall I do unto this people?
Oh, what did Christ do unto His people? What did He do for His
people? Though we were ready to stone
him, Christ went before us, and he took the elders of Israel.
He took his rod. He smoked the river, and Christ
was that rock that God stood upon. Verse 6, Behold, I will
stand before thee there upon the rock. God was in Christ,
reconciling the world unto himself, wasn't he? Immanuel, call his
name Immanuel, God with us. The Son is given. His name is
the mighty God, the everlasting Father. He's God. Behold, I'll stand there upon
the rock in Horeb, and thou shalt smite the rock. Now, Moses and
his rod, they represent the law and God's justice. Moses represents
the law and the rod God's justice. And there, it says before the
people, look at it, thou shalt smite the rock And he did that
in front of the people. And there shall come water out
of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight
of the elders of Israel. And there before the people in
their sight, in the wilderness where no water was, before those
sinful, rebellious, murmuring complainers when God should have
destroyed them long ago, he had Moses smite that rock.
in mercy and grace. And you know what flowed out
of it? There was no condemnation. Nothing but sweet water. Sweet
water. I bet that water was as sweet out of the rock. There's no pure
water anywhere. Now, this rock here was Christ.
It was Christ. Christ who hung on the cross
on Calvary's tree between God and men. Christ who hung there
with our sins upon him who had made sin for us. And God took
the rod of his justice against our sins and smote his Son. Smote
Christ in our stead, and it says, from his wounds out flowed two
things. Sanatoning, life-giving blood. Blood for our justification.
Without the shedding of blood, there's no remission. Blood that
justifies it. And what else flowed out from
his wounded side? Water. Water. Sweet, refreshing, satisfying
water. The song says, All my life long
I had panted for a draught from some clear spring. For something
that would satisfy or my longing with hallelujah, I found it,
whom my soul so long has craved. Christ Jesus satisfies my longing. Through his blood I now am saved. Water flowed from his wounded
side, water to wash us, to sustain us, sanctifying water. Blood
to justify, water to sanctify. Verse 7 says, And he called the
name of the place Massah. That means temptation. And Meribah
That means strife. Scripture says Christ was tempted
in all points, like as we are, yet without sin. Wasn't it? Christ
was tempted for us in our place. The place was called Massa. Christ
was tempted in our place. And it was called Merima, strife. Scripture says he shall not strive.
I'm going to lift up his voice. He didn't strive against God,
didn't he? Oh, no. Not like us. I'll tell you one
thing he did strive against that we don't strive against. We strive
against God. He didn't strive against God.
He strived against sin under blood. We have not yet striven
against sin under blood. Temptation and strife. That's
the place where Christ is. He did not strive, yet he did
strive against blood. or against sin unto blood. Now this is important, and I'll
be about three more minutes. I've only been 28 minutes. Numbers
chapter 20. We have to look at this. We have
to. I don't want to shun to declare
unto you all the counsel of God. This is the continuation of this
story about this rock. This is an important conclusion.
We must see this. Not only do men miss the first
part, but they miss the second. Not only do men not see Christ
in the rock, but they're smiting him twice. Numbers chapter 20, the Scripture
says this, "...knowing that Christ being raised from the dead, he
dieth no more." Romans 6 says, "...he died unto
sin once." Hebrews 9 says, Now once in the end of the world
hath Christ appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice. Christ
was once offered to bury the sins of many. By one offering
he hath perfected forever them that are sanctified. Look what
God says, and he wrote for our learning. Look at it. Chapter
20, verse 7. The Lord spake unto Moses and
said, Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou
and Aaron, thy brother, and speak unto the rock. before their eyes. And it shall give forth his water.
And thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock. How? Just speak. Just speak to
it. And that water will flow just
as freely. Speak. So shalt thou give the congregation
and their beast to drink. Speak to the rock. And that rock
is Christ. And we have nothing to do now
but to speak to him. Ask, he said, ask, and it shall
be given unto you. There's nothing for us to do
now to obtain the blessings of God. We don't do anything but
simply ask. We certainly don't lay our hands
on it. Do we? Verse 9, Moses took
the rod before the Lord, and this is where the Lord got angry
with Moses and told him he was going to kill him. Verse 10, Moses and Aaron, they
ran it together, gathered the congregation together before
the rock. And he said unto them, Here now,
you rebels, must we fetch you water out of this rock? And Moses lifted up his hand
with his rod. He smoked the rock twice. He smoked the rock twice. God said
in verse 12, To Moses and Aaron because you believe me not to
sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel Therefore
you shall not bring this children This is the water of Meribeth
because the children of Israel strove with the Lord and he was
sanctified in them Because you believe me not and smoked the
rock and didn't speak to them Now, that rock is Christ, and
Christ is complete in and of Himself, and His work is complete. You are complete in Him. And
we don't add anything to it. He will provide everything just
for the asking. And we're certainly not to smite
the rock, are we? And people, what they're doing in the Mass
today, Brother Ed, many men lay down
their lives for this thing of transubstantiation, didn't they?
In a big word, I know. But what that means is that Catholicism,
the great whore, harlot, that false religion down through
the years has always believed in transubstantiation. That is,
that When they take part in that mass, or that perversion of the
Lord's table, they actually believe that the bread turns into the
actual body of Christ. Actually. They believe that. And the wine actually, literally,
becomes the blood of Christ. And the priest actually, literally,
administers the body and blood of Christ to the people that
take it. That's enlightening twice, isn't it? Oh no, Christ by one offering
has perfected forever. This is merely a symbol, a remembrance
of Him. What we do when we take this
is we say, He did it all. We don't continually offer up
Christ. And those people that do that and all those that partake
of it will not enter into the promised land because of unbelief. See, Christ was that rock. Christ
is that rock, smitten for us, wounded for us one time, wounded
for our transgression. And all we need do now is call
upon his name. Whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be saved, shall be saved. Matt Rock was
proud. Jerry, come up and let's sing
as we close in, That Solid Rock. 272, okay?
