me in your Bibles please to Philippians
chapter 2. Philippians chapter 2. Philippians chapter 2, notice
the first word, if. This is not an if of doubt. This is an if as is the case. This is true. This is right. As a matter of fact, the Greek
language had a specific construction to say something that is not
a doubt, but is a truth, but that gets you to think. If there
be, therefore, any consolation, any comfort in Christ, if any
comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bows and
mercies, there certainly are all these things. But he begins
them with the word it. And when he says that, then he
says, fulfill ye my joy, that ye be like minded, having the
same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done
through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness of mind let
each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man
on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus, who
being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with
God, but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of
a servant, and was made in the likeness of men, and being found
in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient
unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also
hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above
every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow
of things in heaven, and in earth, and under the earth, and that
every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory
of God the Father. Wherefore, my beloved, as you
have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much
more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear
and trembling. That doesn't mean that we work
to save ourselves. That means that because we're
saved, look at the next verse, for it is God which worketh in
you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Because we're
saved, that's what we're going to be doing. God wills it so. Do all things without murmuring
and disputings, that ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons
of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse
nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world, holding
forth the word of life, that I may rejoice in the day of Christ,
that I have not run in vain, neither labored in vain. We'll
stop there. John 17. Let's look at verses
24 through 26. Father, I will. John 17, 24. Father, I will that they also
whom thou hast given me be with me, where I am, that they may
behold my glory, which thou hast given me, for thou lovest me
before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father, the
world hath not known thee, but I have known thee, and these
have known that thou hast sent me. And I have declared unto
them thy name, and will declare it, that the love that thou hast
loved me may be in them, and I in them. This is the last message
out of John 17, dealing with it. First start out, our Lord
Jesus prayed with himself, prayed for himself, then he prayed for
those given to him. And now he prays at the close
of this wonderful prayer of the law of our Lord Jesus Christ
for people of all ages. And here in verse 24, We have,
in my opinion, one of the most glorious statements, one of the
most glorious requests made by our Lord Jesus Christ. He said,
Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with
me where I am. What a glorious request. This
is our Savior. This is our Lord Jesus Christ.
He's going to get up after this and cross the brook Cedron, that
they may behold my glory. We're not where I'm at, that
they may behold my glory. which you've given me, for thou
lovest me before the foundation of the world." David said, these
things are too wonderful for me, they're too high for me.
And this is one of those places that is just too wonderful, it's
too high. And this verse may be considered
the climax of this blessed prayer of our dear Savior as he prays
for his saints. The first thing he says is, Father,
Father, He's our Lord Jesus Christ, He's His Father in three-fold
relationship. When He says Father, He's the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ in three-fold relationship. First,
He's His Father by virtue of His human nature. Our Lord Jesus
Christ could not have come here and assumed human nature had
not God prepared Him a body. He said, Thou hast prepared me
a body. And that's what He prepared Him
a body for, to be a sacrifice, to be an offering, to be the
Lamb of God. And His birth was a miracle birth.
The angel, you know, when God said, You asked for a sign, I'm
going to give you a sign. Isaiah 714, Behold, a virgin
shall conceive and bear a son. and He shall be Immanuel, which
means God is with us. And so that man Christ Jesus,
the man Christ Jesus, born of a virgin, and His Father is His
Father by His human nature. Christ got His human nature from
His Father. He didn't get it from Adam, He
got it from His Father. That's why our Lord was holy,
harmless, sinless, and undefiled, higher than the heavens. are
we got our nature from our father adam but christ got his nature
his human nature by his father and so that man christ jesus
is the son of god that man and then he's the father of our lord
jesus christ as the head and representative of his people
that's what he said said how many times did he say those that
has given me my sheep that they gave me and so many times he
sent him our he's the father of our lord as the head of a
people the head of a body the head of a church the head of
all whom father gave him and he's the representative of his
people He came here to represent them before God the Father, represent
them before the law, represent them before justice, represent
them before the wrath of God and the judgment of God. And
so He was our head and representative. He's the head of the family and
representative of the family of the redeemed from among men.
That's why Romans 8 29 said He's the firstborn among many brethren. He's the firstborn of all the
gods. He's the firstborn. The rest
of us is adopted. He's the only one born of God.
Us, we're born by the Spirit of God, but He was born of God,
and He's the representative. He was made like unto His brethren
that I might be a faithful and merciful high priest, and then
He's Father in the third way as the First Person of the Trinity,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. He's the Father as Christ is
the Son, the Second Person of the Trinity. God's the Father,
the First Person of the Trinity. God's the First Person, God the
Father. He's the One that purposed salvation
and gave His Son, the Second Person of the Trinity. and who
willingly came into this world through this covenant of blessed
grace, and came into this world as the second person to do for
us what we could not do, and the third person is the Holy
Ghost who takes what God purposed, what Christ purchased, and applies
it to us in this world in which we live in. And he's essential
to the sacred relationship of the second person. And this relationship
always existed. Oh, God prepared him a body.
There was a time, he said, this day have I begotten thee. And
then he's the father, and he said, I've gave you a people,
you're gonna go be the head of those people, you're gonna represent
those people. Before me, before the world,
before law, before justice, before wrath, you're gonna represent
them. And then he says, you're my beloved son. You're daily
my delight. You've been with me before I
laid the foundation of the earth. He said, you is with me. And
that's why he says, you know, he said, God spared not his own
son, that second person of the Trinity. And then what our Lord
Jesus Christ is saying here, Father, I will. What he's doing
when he says, Father, he's suing for a child's portion for each
of his people. Father, I will that those whom
thou hast given me. He's praying for a child's portion.
Everybody's heard about a children's portion. If you got 10 kids and
your parents leave you something, everybody gets a portion. And
that's what our Lord's praying for, a child's portion for each
of his people, for those that thou hast given me. He's not
asking for wages that a servant receives, but an inheritance,
an inheritance of being with him. an inheritance of beholding
His glory, an inheritance of being in His presence through
all eternity. And, oh, He s praying here for
an inheritance that His children receive. And this inheritance
is being in the Father's house. Everything we have is in the
Father's house. That's where Christ is at. In my Father's
house are many mansions. If we're not so, I'd have told
you. And that's where our Savior is at now. He's in the Father's
house, sitting at the Father's right hand, doing His Father's
will even yet today. But look what He says there in
verse 24. Father, I will, I will. I want you to look at this will.
I will. I will. Now, before I deal with
His will, I want to look at some other wills that's mentioned
in the Scriptures. You look with me in Mark, chapter
6. Mark, chapter 6. Here's some other wills that
people prayed for their will. Mark, chapter 6, in verse 22. Oh, Father, I will
those that Thou hast given me. But here's another will. that
people prayed for their will to be done and asked for their
will. And Mark 6, 22, and when the
daughter of the said Herodias came in and danced and pleased
Herod, he's the king now. And them that sat with him, the
king said unto the damsel, ask me whatsoever thou wilt and I
will give it thee. And he swore unto her, Whatsoever
thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee unto the half of
my kingdom. And she went forth and said unto
her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John
the Baptist. And she came in straightway with
haste unto the king and said, I will that thou givest me by
and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist. Let me show
you another. Isaiah 14.12. Isaiah 14.12. Here's some wheels. Isaiah 14.12. How art thou fallen
from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning? How art thou cut
down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations? Listen to
this, for thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven. I will exalt my throne above
the stars of God. I will sit also upon the mount
of the congregation in the sides of the north. I will ascend above
the heights of the cloud. I will be like the most high. Now back over in John 17, you
remember that rich fool who said, I know what I'll do, said, I've
got so many goods. I've got so many goods that I
know what I'll do. I'll tear down my barns and I
will build greater barns to store all my goods. I will. But look at the difference in
the wheels. Their wheels were selfish. Their
wheels was horrible. One wanted the death of a man.
Satan wanted to be above God Himself. And that rich fool said,
Boy, I've done everything I need to do now. I've got my ease.
I'm going to take my ease now. I built my barns and I filled
them up. And now I'll build greater barns. And all the earth was
selfish and self-centered and wanted more. But our Lord's will
His will is as different as daylight from dark, as life from death,
from the will of selfish men and Satan and those who in this
world Our Lord's will, when He says, I will, He says, I will
for them. I will for them. And oh, listen. Our Lord here is not demanding
like Herodias' daughters was. Our Lord here is not demanding
and self-centered and exalted like Satan's was. He's not strongly
asserting His will, no. He says, Father, I will. I will, not demanding. And what
he's saying here, he's leaving his last will and his testament
for those who are listening to him pray and those of us here
who listen to what he says now. Father, I will, I will. This is my will. for those whom
I have purchased, for those that you have given me. This is my
will for those that I've bought with my precious blood. And see
the amazing difference between our Lord Jesus Christ praying
against His own hell when He gets into the Garden of Gethsemane.
He says, Father, if there be any other way, any other way,
let this cup pass from me. But nevertheless, not my will,
but thine be done." Oh, how he acquiesces to the will of God.
And oh, beloved, now he's praying for us, and he's praying for
our heaven. He says, Father, I will. And
what he means is, I desire, it's my pleasure, it's my delight
for these that thou hast given me. What love, what care he has
for his own blessed people. And then look what he says, Father
I will that whom thou hast given me be with me where I am. That's what a prayer. Father
I will that they whom thou hast given me be with me where I am. Be with me where I am. You know,
when our Lord Jesus Christ was on the cross, thief on either
side of him, one thief custody The other thief said, oh, don't
you fear God seeing you in the same condemnation. And he said,
Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom. And our Lord
Jesus Christ says, today, today, thou shalt be with me. That's
the key there. Thou shalt be with me in paradise. You know where paradise is at?
Wherever he's at. That's wherever He's at. You
know what made paradise paradise? God dwelt there. God went down
there in the person of His blessing. God walked in the garden in the
cool of the day. God is Spirit. So that one who
walked in the garden in the cool of the day had to be the Lord
Jesus Christ. God's always, ever, and only
spoken to men by the Lord Jesus Christ. And it was the Lord Jesus.
And you know when Adam sinned, that paradise just went away.
You know why? Because the Lord couldn't dwell
with man the way he did before. But now he says, Father, I will
that where I am, those that thou hast given me, be with me where
I am, where I am. And that's what Paul meant. He
says, you know, I desire, I'm in a straight desire to depart
and be with Christ which is far better. I was thinking I think
I think pretty often I said maybe this will be the year the Lord
will take me home maybe this will be the year that Lord take
me home take me to that blessed place where God's got a city
whose builder and maker is God himself and that's why Paul says
you know said he told the Thessalonians he says said when the Lord shall
descend with a shout then we which are alive and remain shall
be changed in the moment in the twinkling of an eye and then
shall we all meet him in the air so shall we ever ever be
with the Lord ever be with the Lord And Paul says to be absent
from the body is to be present with the Lord. And when he said,
I desire to depart and be with Christ, he wasn't talking about,
he was talking about wherever Christ at, that's where I want
to go. He didn't say I desire to depart and go to heaven. I
want to go where with Christ. People talk about heaven. There
ain't no such thing as heaven apart from Christ. Heaven wouldn't
be heaven without Him. He's the light of that blessed
place. He's the glory of that blessed
place. And He said, O Father, I will
that they whom Thou hast given Me may be with Me where I am. And that's exactly what He told
His disciples in John 14. Look over there at it in the
first three verses of John 14. This is what He told them over
there. Oh, my. You know, he just got through
telling Simon Peter he's going to deny him, told all of them
he's going to forsake him. And that would trouble your heart
to be told all those things, and he's going to let all that's
going to happen. And then he says, but don't let your heart
be troubled. It troubled my heart if the Lord told me I was going
to deny him three times. It troubled my heart if the Lord
told me, he said, you're going to forsake me for this night.
All of you is going to forsake me and leave me before this night's
over. That troubled my heart. Let not
your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also
in me. In my father's house are many
mansions. If it were not so, I would have
told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go, and that's cause,
certainty. And if I go and prepare a place
for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself. And
where I am, you may be also. Oh my. Back over here, we don't
understand the nature of the future state. We don't understand
the nature of it. We don't understand what it's
going to be like to be changed. We're so stuck in this body. We're so stuck in this nature.
We don't understand the nature of the future state, but it's
enough for us to be with Him. That's what we're interested
in, is being with Him. It's His presence that we want,
not a place which will make heaven, but heaven is where Christ is
at. That's what makes heaven heaven.
Oh, almost daily, almost daily, you hear people talking about,
well, I know that their presence is with me. I know they're looking
down from heaven and I know that their presence is with me. Well,
I'll tell you something, beloved. There's no way in the world if
you got to go be with Christ that you would ever, ever think
of this world ever again. It says all things are made new.
there where when he says you know father i will that they
also whom thou hast given me be with me where i am there where
he is there will be a perfect presence a perfect presence christ
will be it's perfectly all that he is we'll see and we'll have
him and his people all of them and all individually with all
that they are as a person will be in his presence be with him
now all of christ is not with us all of christ is not with
us all of christ is for us but all of christ is not with us
and all of us are not with christ we have his spirit we have his
word we have his grace but there's also a company of just men made
perfect in his presence right now But oh, we have His Spirit,
we have His Word, we have His Grace, but He has our hearts.
He has the worship of our faith, He has our love, and He has the
desires of our heart, which is depart and be with Christ, which
is far better. Huh? Oh, He's got that. We don't have Him completely.
But oh, beloved, He's got our hearts, and our worship, and
our love, and our desire. And look what He says. and be
with me where I am, that they may behold my glory." My glory,
my glory. And listen, this is what he's
saying. They've seen me in the flesh. These men here have seen
me in the flesh. They've seen me as a man of many
sorrows and acquainted with grief. They've seen me with no place
to lay my head. They've seen me in the days of
my humiliation. But there is a glory that our
Lord has. There is a glory in all of those
things He had in the flesh, and all the things He did in the
flesh, and all the things that He suffered, that man of sorrows
and acquainted with grief. All these are necessary for our
salvation, and there is a glory in all of them, and we see the
glory of God in them. Oh, that Christ became so identified
with us, took all that was wrong with us upon Himself. But he
says, Lord, that they may behold that my glory, listen to this,
my glory, which thou hast given me. Oh, my, there was a glory
given him. He said, Oh, father, you give
me a glory. And He said, Behold it, that
they may behold My glory. That means when we get there,
when we get there, that's what we're going to see. We're going
to see His glory. Oh, what glory! Continually gaze upon it, continually
see it. Oh, look what He said over here
in verse 5 of John 17. And now, O Father, glorify me
with Thine own self, with the glory which I had with Thee before
the world was." He had a glory before he ever got here. And
he says, Father, the glory that Thou hast given me continually
glaze upon it. And look over at I John chapter
3 and verse 9. Look at this. This glory that
was given to our Lord Jesus Christ. Oh, to see His glory. I John
3 and verse 2. And he says, I want them to behold
it. I want them to be with me that
they may behold my glory. That we'll be able to gaze upon
it, constantly see it. Not see it now, not like it is.
We saw, we seize glory as he was in the flesh. Seize glory
as our substitute. Seize glory as that man of Saul. Seize glory in his humiliation.
Seize glory when he was in the garden of Gethsemane. Seize glory
here as he prays for us. Seize glory when he forgave sinners. Seize glory when he raised the
dead. Seize glory when he cleansed
the lepers. Seize glory but oh my the glory
that he's talking about here that we may behold it's wherever
he's at he said with me they may that they be with me that
they may gaze upon and continue to look upon and see my glory
first john 3 2 beloved now are we the sons of god And it doth
not yet appear what we shall be. Like I say, our future state,
we don't know. But we know that when he shall
appear, we shall be like him. Now listen to it. For we shall
seem as he is. Oh, bless his name. oh oh the glory we're going to
gaze upon it and it says here was given to him the glory of
the father the glory the father gave him is measured by the love
the father has for him look what he says in verse 24 for thou
lovest me before the foundation of the world lovest me and the
glory given him is measured by the great love were with the
Father. And he read tonight, thou has given him the name above
every name that at the name of Jesus Christ, every knee should
bow, every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to
the glory of God the Father. And that's gonna be one of these
days that every soul on this earth will get on their knees
before God, and before they're put in the bottomless pit for
the second death, they'll all get on their knees and confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord, and yes, that name you've given Him
is above every name, and you know they still won't repent,
and then they'll be put in the second death. But I'm telling
you right now, I'm telling you right now, every soul that's
ever been saved by the grace of God, every single one of them
bow before God Almighty. They know that Jesus Christ has
the greatest name in heaven and earth. They know that, God taught
them that. We know that. God taught us that. And we bow our knees before Him
and say, yes, He's got the greatest name. I'm not looking for salvation
in any other name, any other person. And I bow here and I
confess that He's Lord. He's the sovereign Lord. He's
got all power in heaven and earth. He's got all power over all flesh. that He can give eternal life
to whoever has given to Him. And I do that, and God, You get
all the glory out of it. That's what our Lord wants. That's
what God says. And oh, my. Then look what He
says in verse 25 here. He said, Oh, righteous Father. Oh, righteous Father. You're the righteous one. You're
the righteous Father. And look what He says. The world
hath not known thee. You're righteous. You're righteous
in your nature. Righteous in your person. And
the world is wicked. The world despises you. The world ignores you. The world
doesn't consider you. You're not in all their thoughts
at all. And he says, you're righteous
and the world is wicked. The world has not known you. The world still don't know God.
They don't know him, said the world hath not known thee. They
don't know you. The Pharisees didn't know him.
The Sadducees didn't know him. The high priest and the prince
of the world didn't know him. Our Lord Jesus said, I was in
the world, and the world didn't know me, and they didn't know
you. I was in the world, and the world
loved darkness, and I was in the world, and the world didn't
know me. And He says, to know me is to know the Father, and
to know the Father is to know the Son. And our Lord Jesus Christ
here saying, O righteous Father, I'm coming to you from a world
that doesn't know you and have refused to know you throughout
my ministry. And how many times did He say,
I am my Father? They picked up stones to stone
Him. He said, what good work are you going to stone me for?
No, we don't mind your works. We're glad for your works. But
we're going to stone you because you blaspheme and you make yourself
to be God. And he said, before Abraham was,
I am. Oh, and that's why twice they're
going to stone him. You know, the both reasons was
because he said, I'm God. I'm God. I'm my father. One of
the words that I speak to not mine. My father just sent me.
Philip, show us the father and it'll it'll satisfy us. He said,
Philip, I've been with you such a long time and you've not known
me. And so, beloved, he said, I've been in this world, and
they didn't know me, and I revealed you to the world, and I spoke
of you in the world, and I made people know of you in the world,
and I talked about you in the world, and they did not know
me or you either one, and still don't. But look what he says,
goes on to say, world hath not known you but I've known you
I know you I have known thee I've known thee in this world
I know who you are I've known you in this world and how many
times did he pray and he prayed He prayed and here he is praying
to his father. He said, I've known you when
I was in the world. I come to you. And when he stood
before Lazarus tomb, he said, I pray not for my sake, because
I know you always hear me, but I pray for those around me that
they may know that you always hear me. and in the world i've
come to you i've trusted you i've known you i've known your
glory and i see your glory and i've known your will and i've
done your will and i know your purpose and i've done your purpose
and i know your love look in john 8 55 i've known you i've
known you john 8 54 and 55 look what our savior said i've known
thee i've known thee John 8.54, Jesus answered, If I honor myself,
my honor is nothing. It is my Father that honoreth
me, of whom you say that he is your God. Yet ye have not known
him, but I know him. And if I should say I know him
not, I should be a liar like unto you. But I know him, and
keep his say. I know him. I know him. And I've
known thee, and look what else it says here. Back over in verse
25. They have not known thee, the
world don't know you, but I've known thee, and these have known
that thou hast sent me. These disciples, these apostles,
and these who believe, who are these that know? Those that have
gave me, those that was a gift to Christ, the ones that Christ
laid His life down for. And when he says, these have
known that thou hast sinned. He says, those that you gave
me, they've acknowledged, they've confessed that you sent me. They confess that I came from
another world, that I came from glory, I came from the Father's
presence, I came from where the angels worshipped and adored
me. And they acknowledge and confess
that I come into this world sent by you, and with all their weaknesses
and all their infirmities, they have known. They know why I came
into this world to do your will and to glorify you. They know
why you sent me to do the will that you gave me to do. And I
did that will and I finished the work. And what comfort, what
comforts guaranteed for all of us to see, to be with Christ,
to behold his glory, to go to that place where the Lamb is
the light. And then look what he said in
verse 26, And I have declared unto them thy name. I've declared
unto them thy name. What he's saying is, I've made
you known. I've made you known to them. You know, we know God. When we
say we know God, we know God. We not know some things about
him, we know him. He said, I have declared thy
name unto them. And he said in verse six, I've
manifested thy name unto the men which thou hast gave me.
We know God. We know the thrice holy God,
the eternal God, the God who created the heavens and the earth
and the God who does according to his will in all the armies
of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth. And how did we
know him? He said, I have made him known unto them. Made you known unto them. He
said, I've declared your name to them. I've declared who you
are to them. and look what he says and will
declare it he's still declaring the name of his father that's
why he read tonight he thought it not robbery to be equal with
God though he was in the form of a man now if any other man
had been in this world and claimed to be equal with God that would
have robbed God of his glory that would have been a lie that
wouldn't have been scriptural but when it says Christ thought
it not robbery He didn't rob anything, didn't take anything
from God, didn't take anything from His character, didn't take
anything from His nature, didn't take anything from His will,
didn't take anything from His glory, didn't take anything from
His power, didn't take anything from His righteousness and His
holiness, because He was equal with His Father. Now, let some
other idiot jump up and say, you know, I'm equal with God
the Father, and you found a liar. And that's why I said, I will
declare it, I have declared and will declare it. All you have
given me, I'll make known to you. Everyone you've given me,
I'm gonna make them know you until all the church of God be
saved to sin no more. And listen to this, here's the
reason. He says, I will declare it, verse 26, that the love wherewith
thou hast loved me may be in them. The way you loved me, That
same love may be in them. May be in them. And not only
that love may be in them, but I myself will be in them. Because the love of God dwells
in the Lord Jesus Christ. And oh, beloved, love is the
last word in this prayer. Love is the last word in this
prayer. Thou hast loved me. may be in them. Not faith, love
is the last word in this prayer. Not faith, not eternal life,
not even glory, but love. Faith, hope, and charity. And the greatest of these is
charity. Look in John 13 and 1 and I'm
done. John 13 and 1. Now before the
feast of the Passover, When Jesus knew that His hour was come,
that He should depart out of this world unto the Father, now
listen to this, having loved His own which were in the world,
He loved them unto the end. Father, I will that the love
that Thou loved me with might be in them, and me in them too. The love of God and Christ in
us both. Oh my, what a Savior. Hallelujah, what a Savior. Hallelujah,
what a Savior. Our Father, oh blessed Father,
holy Father, righteous Father, glorious Father, of our great
God and Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, thank you that you allowed
us to enter into this prayer, this prayer you prayed for your
people for all ages. for those that believe then,
for those who shall believe and always will believe until time
will cease to be. Thank you for allowing us to
look in this and enjoy this together. Lord, it's blessed my heart,
blessed my soul, and I thank you for your truth. Thank you
for your blessed gospel. Thank you for these precious,
precious things that you've given us. And Lord Jesus, thank you
for praying for us. Thank you for praying for us.
Angels don't pray for us. The Father don't pray for us.
The Lord Jesus, you pray for us. You pray, and your will will
be done. Someday soon, we'll be with you,
and we'll behold your glory that the Father gave you. We'll see
it, and go gaze upon it, and stand in the light of it. Oh,
God, bless your holy name. Oh, bless our Lord Jesus Christ.
In his name we bless you. Amen. Amen.
