My subject this evening is Jesus
who was made. Jesus who was made. It says in verse 9, Hebrews 2.9, But we see Jesus who was made. a little more than the angels,
for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor, that he,
by the grace of God, should taste death for every man. For it became
him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, and
bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their
salvation perfect through sufferings. For both he that sanctified and
they who are sanctified are all of one, for which cause he is
not ashamed to call him brother." You notice there it says, but
we see Jesus who was made. Several places in the scriptures
talk about what our Lord Jesus Christ was made. Galatians 4.4
says that the Lord Jesus Christ was made of a woman. Made of
a woman. And why was he made of a woman? Well, God promised that he would
be the seed of the woman. That he himself would become
the seed of the woman. Women never had a seed before.
God made, he's created man in three different ways. First of
all, he made a man without a woman. He made Adam. Then he made man
with a woman. Cain was born. And then he made
a man with a woman but without a man and that was the Lord Jesus
Christ and our Lord Jesus Christ he was made of a woman and he
was promised behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son
and thou shalt call his name Emmanuel for he is God with us
he was prophesied to come he was pictured to come and then
look at all these verses around here And I tell you what, he
was made of a woman to identify with us. To become one like us. Look what he says up here in
verse 14. For as much then as the children are partakers of
flesh and blood, he likewise also took part of the same. We
was made of flesh and blood, he became flesh and blood. Bone
of our bone, flesh of our flesh. And then look down in verse 16. Look where it says, For verily
it took not on him the nature of angels, but it took on him
the seed of Abraham. He took on himself the likeness
of men. He took upon himself that promised
seed of Abraham. And another thing, look where
it says, why he was made of a woman. Wherefore in all things it behooved
him to be made like unto his brethren. He had to become identified
with us. He became one with us. He came
into this world made of a woman to become one with us. And I
tell you why He was virgin born is because though He was identified
with us, partake of flesh and blood like us, it behooved Him
to be made like unto His brethren. The reason being was that He
had to be without sin. Adam was the first man created,
he sinned and so our Lord Jesus Christ became made of a woman.
So that he would not have Adam's blood in him, but yet he had
to be made like unto us. And so he came through the womb
of a virgin and he was a man. Like us, only one great, incredible,
infinite difference is that He was without sin. And the reason
He was born without sin, so that He could become the sacrifice
for our sin. That's why I said it behooved
him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a
merciful and faithful high priest in thanks pertaining to God.
Listen to this, to make reconciliations for the sins of his people. His people. No wonder when our
Lord Jesus Christ was asleep on that ship and that storm came
up. And they went and woke him up
and said, Master, Master, you don't you care that we perish?
And our Lord Jesus got up and he said, Oh, you have little
faith. Why do I, how long am I going to have to suffer you?
And he got up and he rebuked the wind. He got up and he rebuked
the sea and everything became calm. And you know what they
said? What manner of man is this? And I'm telling you, what manner
of man was it that came into this world? What manner of man
must he be that God accepted his life? purposed his birth,
purposed his life, accepted his life, accepted his sacrifice,
accepted his sinlessness, accepted his perfection for a people that
no man's multitude can number. And let me tell you something
else. Now look over at Galatians with me. Not only was he made
of a woman, but again in Galatians 4, he was made under the law. made under the law look what he said here in Galatians
4 for but when the fullness of time
was coming God sent forth his son made of
a woman and look here made under the law why was he made under the law
because you and I could not keep the law. You and I could never
be saved by keeping the law. You and I, there's no way under
God's heaven and on God's green earth that you and I could obey
one God or one title of the law. If you sin at one point, you're
guilty of it all. And that's what he said. And
so why did our Lord Jesus Christ, back over there in Hebrews 9,
it says that for the suffering of death, for the suffering of
his maid, for the suffering of death. And that's why our Lord
Jesus Christ was made of a woman and made under the law. Now the
law has a penalty. And this is what people don't
understand. I was, those folks that was here from Florida, they
was telling me about how that they were in bondage and then
legalism for so many years and they were in reformed churches.
They was in churches that was Calvinistic. That believed the
five points of Calvin. Believed two of them. They didn't
believe in days, you know. They believed two of them. But
they were in bondage. They were told how they were
supposed to dress. Where they could go. How much
money they had to give. Had to come in, had to put a
covering over her head for sure, because she was in the service,
and if you didn't do that, and if you got out of the way in
any way, an elder came and talked to you. And then they began to
hear the gospel. They began to hear it on the
radio. And so they began to go and attend gospel churches where
the gospel was preached. And they said it took a long,
long, long time for them to get those grave clothes took off
of them. And you see, it's easy for people to keep folks under
the law, because everybody wants to do something to better themselves,
to make themselves more acceptable to God. But how can you be more
acceptable to God, but then be accepted and to be loved? And
no matter what you do, I don't care about how much coverage
you put over you, and how well you dress, and what services
you attend, if Christ is not your all at all, and didn't put
your sin away, and fulfill the law in your place, you're as
bad off as you'll ever be. There's no way, no way, Anybody
has ever kept the law in one jot or one tittle. That's why
Paul said, you know, he said, after the rises of the law, I
was nameless. And that's not what that rich
young ruler said. He said, when the mighty said,
good master, what should I do to inherit eternal life? Well,
you know the commandments. He said, I've kept every one
of these since I was a little boy. And he said, I'll tell you
what you need to do then. Take everything you got. Take
all your money, all your property, take it out of the bank, get
it out of the bachelors, take it all and give it to the poor. And come and follow me. They
wouldn't do that. But he bragged about keeping
the law. But our Lord showed him right then and there that
his idol was his God. That money and all he possessed
was his God. And that's why Paul said with
him, the righteous of the law, that wasn't nobody going to touch
me until Christ put me down on the Damascus road. And you know
what he said? Oh Lord. You know what he ended up saying?
I know that in me that is in my flesh dwells no good thing. And he said, I count all my righteousness
to be benung. Everything I did under the law
is done. Now I want to win Christ, be
found in Christ. Not having my righteousness,
but the righteousness of Christ. And oh listen, why did he do
that? Look down here in Galatians chapter
3. In verse 10. Galatians 3 10 for as many are
as are of the works of the law are under the curse For it is written curse it is
everyone that Continues not in all things which are written
in the book of the law to do them Now just wait a minute Folks
will call you up and say well, what do you do with the doctors
in your church? What do you do with people that
tell lies in your church? I? What do you do with people
that don't tithe in your church? I don't do anything with them. I don't do anything with them. If the Lord can't deal with them,
a 2 by 4 preacher like me ain't going to deal with them. See,
they want to go back to law. They want to go back to law and then
they want to find out what's wrong with everybody else. It's
never them that's in trouble. It's always the other person
that's doing the sin. It's never them. And that's why
it says, Cursed is everyone that continueth not in all things
written in the book of the law to do them. This is a true story. This is a fine, fine man. I've
known him for years. The Lord took him home. But he
went to Scott one time and he said, Brother Scott, I read in
the scriptures that we all ought to confess our faults one to
another, confess our sins. And old Scott sitting there at
his desk, he rared back and said, well, that's a great idea. That's good that we do that.
And I'll tell you what we'll do. Let's start with you. Let's
stop that just that quick. It's easy to confess somebody
else's sin, but that's what it says. And then you look what
he says next. But that no man, in verse 11, is justified by
the law and the sight of God, it's evident. For the just don't
live by the law, the just live by faith. And the law has absolutely
nothing to do with faith. But the man that does them shall
live in them. And listen to this now, this
is what we're talking about. Made under the law. Christ hath
redeemed us from the curse of the law. For it is written, Cursed
is every one that hangeth on a tree. You know, the law and
the curse of the law carry two penalties. First penalty it caused
was loss, the loss of life. You're going to die. You're going
to perish. And I tell you, you lose the
presence of God, you lose your life. And then the second one
is, is you lose all comfort, you suffer for eternity. Well,
our Lord Jesus Christ, He redeemed us from our death and gave us
life and redeemed us from all the suffering that we'd have
to do for eternity. Christ bore all that was required
of us under the law in His own body there on that tree. He fulfilled
it for us. That's why there's therefore
right now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus.
Christ is the end of the law for what? Righteousness. To who? them that believe them that believe
let me give you another one let's look back over in Hebrews 9 again
in Hebrews 9 excuse me not Hebrews 9 Hebrews 2 in verse 9 about
to mess up Hebrews 2 verse 9 Hebrews 2 in verse 9 look what
it says talking about our Lord Jesus Christ made made of a woman
made under the law to redeem us out from under the curse of
the law to pay our penalty and look what it says here now thou
madest him a little lower than the angels thou madest Christ
lower than the angels now this is the one to whom the angels
adored This is the one our Lord Jesus Christ said, if you think
this is something, wait till you see the angels ascending
and descending upon the Son of Man, just like they did on Jacob's
lap. And so the angels came and ministered
to our Lord Jesus Christ. They came to Him in the garden.
They came to Him time and time again in our Lord's life according
to the Scriptures. But God made Him lower than the
angels. And why did they make Him lower
than the angels? that he might suffer death. Look what he said in verse 9
again. I was reading in verse 7, excuse me. But we see Jesus
who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering
of death. Angels don't die. Angels were
created eternal beings. They come from their Creator.
They're there to do his bid, do what he says to do, and they
wait on him, and they rejoice when sinners repent in the presence
of the Father. But they, our Lord Jesus, became
lower than the angels, became mortal, so that he could die. Angels don't die. I'll tell you
something else, there's an angels that fell, just like when Satan
fell, they fell with him. And God has them reserved in
blackness and change until the day of judgment. And then Paul
talked about the elect angels. God has an elect angel. Just
like he has us elected. Them elect angels. It was Gabriel
that told Joseph. It was Michael that wrestled
with Satan over the body of Moses. God's got angels that do special
things. He sent his angels to slay a
bunch of people one time. But he was crowned with glory
and honor. Angels not been crowned with
glory and honor. Look what it says over here in
chapter 1 and down in verse 13 and 14. He never crowned an angel
with glory and honor. But he crowned our Lord Jesus
Christ with glory and honor for suffering death. But he never
crowned an angel with glory and honor. Look at verse 13. But to which of the angels said
he at any time? Oh, folks like to brag about
seeing an angel. Oh, you're such an angel. And
the witch and the angel said, hidden in time, sit on my right
hand until I make thine enemies thy footstool. Did God ever say
that to an angel? Are they not all ministering
spirits? Sent forth to minister for them,
minister for them, who shall be heirs of salvation. Those
who inherit salvation. We sent angels to take care of
us, to watch out for us. And oh, let me give you another
one. 2 Corinthians 5. You know what this says. 2 Corinthians
5. There is a controversy among
some preachers over what 2 Corinthians 5.21 actually means. What does it mean? Well, I think
it's self-explanatory. For he who, God, made him, made
who? Christ, to be sin for us. This, our Lord Jesus Christ,
knew no sin, but God made him to be sin. Now I tell you, I
see such wonder in that. I see such glory in that. I see such power in that. I stand
in all of that. That Christ, God took a man who
knew no sin, never sinned in his mind, never sinned in his
words, never sinned in his heart, never sinned in his feet, never
committed a sin, and he lived for 33 and a half years on this
earth and never committed a sin. And I can't even sleep without
sinning. And yet God turned around and
took this sinless man, this perfect man, this holy man, this righteous
man, the son of His love, and took him and said, I'll make
you to be sin. Now if you ever figure out What
sin is that you'll understand to some degree. If you know anything
about yourself, you'll have some understanding then of what it
means for God to make Christ to be sin. Sin is so awful. Sin is so black. Sin is so horrible. Pride. You just take pride. How sinful
is pride? How sinful is a man to say that
he's righteous, that he's good, he's done something good. How
sinful is that? And God took that and made Christ
to be that. Whatever sin is, that's what
God made Christ to be. Huh? Oh. And bless His name. Had He not
done that, And if Christ had bore our sins in his own body
on the tree, then I'd still be barren of myself. And I would
not have any idea that I was even a sinner had not God made
me to know what I am. Made me to know that from the
top of my head to the sole of my foot, From the inside of my
skin to the outside of every breath I breathe, everything
I do. If Christ's blood didn't take
care of it, if Christ didn't take care of my sin, I would
be hopelessly, eternally lost. He takes care of the sins that
I... He bore the sins that we... When
He died for our sins, we never even were there. He was made sin for us and all
the sins that we would commit all of our lives, God made Him
to be that. And they say we're making Christ
to be a sinner. We're not. God made Him to be
sin. I did and God did. And why did
He do that? Oh, for what the law could not
do, in that it was weaned through the flesh, God sent His own Son
in the likeness of sinful flesh, and listen to this, and for sin,
condemned sin, judged sin in the flesh. And that means you judged it.
It's gone. Huh? And then look what else
it says in that very thing, and this is another thing. It made
him to be sin and then it says that we might be made the righteousness
of God in Him. A perfect exchange. He got us,
we got Him. He became us, we become Him. God made Him to be our sin and
then He turns around and gives us the righteousness of Christ. No wonder God says that He has
made our wisdom and our righteousness. And I tell you what, if we don't
rejoice in Christ being made to be sin, then we can never
rejoice in being made the righteousness of Christ in Him. And that's
why Paul said, I want to be found in Him, not having my own righteousness,
which is of the law, but the righteousness which is by faith.
Huh? And oh, I'll tell you, Galatians
2.21 said, if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead
in vain. And I'll tell you, look in Galatians
3.1-6. Let's look at this. This tells us what it's about. No wonder the old hymn writer
said, when that awful trumpet sounds, oh, may I then be found
dressed in His righteousness alone, fall as to stand before
the throne. And all this is what happens
with people. Oh foolish Galatians! Who hath bewitched you? Who hath
beguiled you? Who hath turned your mind around
that you should not obey the truth? Before whose eyes Jesus
Christ hath been evidently set forth crucified, crucified among
you. And I want to learn this of you.
I want you to tell me. I said I want to learn something
about you. I want to learn something about where you're at right now.
Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law or by the
hearing of faith? How did the Spirit of God come
to you? Are you so foolish, having begun in the Spirit, are you
now made perfect by the flesh? Have you suffered so many things
in vain, if it be yet in vain? And on, he said, he that ministers
to you the Spirit through preaching the gospel and works miracles
among you, does he do it by the law, works of the law, or by
the hearing of faith? And here's where it concludes.
Law and faith. Law and faith. Law and faith.
Flesh and spirit. Even as Abraham believed God
and it was accounted to him for righteousness. Oh, listen. Thank God. And what good is it
to me to hear how holy, just, and righteous God is if I can't
be holy, if I can't be just, and if I can't be righteous? And then let me give you another
one. He's made our redemption. 1 Corinthians 1.30. Made our
redemption. You all have heard this quoted
so many times. I bet everyone over here could quote it. 1 Corinthians 1.30. But of him are you in Christ
Jesus, but of God. That's how you get in. God's
got to put you in Christ Jesus. Who of God has made unto us wisdom,
righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. He's made our
redemption. It says that he gave his life
a ransom for many. We have redemption through his
blood, even the forgiveness of sins. And what redemption means
is that you owe a debt. You owe a debt. And you can't
pay the debt. Somebody else has to pay your
debt. And our Lord Jesus Christ, we owed a debt that we couldn't
pay. Christ paid a debt that he didn't
owe. And He came and paid our sin debt, paid our debt, paid
everything off. He gave His life for ransom and
shed His blood. And then He entered into that
holy place made without hands and He obtained eternal redemption. Not just redemption, eternal
redemption. And you know our Lord Jesus Christ,
we love to think of Him as our Redeemer, our Redeemer, in whom
we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of
sins. You know the tabernacle was built
on silver sockets. They took the boards, and boards
about a foot wide, and they took and put under every one of them,
they had a round ball of silver, And they'd round it off and then
they had a little square place in it and they'd set one of those
on, each of those boards on two sockets of silver. They'd be
round like that there and they'd just set them down in there.
And that was, they said this would be the redemption money.
No more, no less with rich or poor. And our Lord Jesus Christ,
if the foundation of the tabernacle was founded on silver, redemption,
imagine what the blood of Christ did for us. And He's the tabernacle
of God. No wonder He is our redemption. Look what else it says there
about Christ being made to us. He's made our sanctification.
There again in 1 Corinthians 1.30, He's made our sanctification.
Oh my! And folks was telling me the
other day, said, boy, they was really, where they was going,
they was really into progressive sanctification. You had to get
better and better and better and better and better. Quit doing this and quit going
there and going this place and that place and all that. But
our sanctification depends not on us. It depends on Christ. God said He made him our sanctification. And that means holiness. That
means perfection. That means separated. That means
set apart. God made us holy. Our Lord Jesus
Christ said, Father, I sanctify them. I sanctify myself for their
sakes. Now, our Lord Jesus Christ, when
he said he sanctified himself, that don't mean he made himself
any more holy. That means that he set himself
apart to the cross. Set himself apart to die. And
when he says, Father, I sanctify them through the word, even thy
truth through thy word. That means that he set himself
apart and then he takes the word and the gospel. And the gospel
is what sets us apart from everybody else. And the blood of Christ
sets us apart. And that's our sanctification.
We couldn't set ourselves apart. Set yourself apart from the world.
You go out and eat tomorrow. And see if anybody recognizes
you as a Christian. You ain't got no big black hat
on. You ain't got no beard. You ain't got on white pants
and black, white shirt and black pants. And you women ain't going
to go out here and wear them big old long dresses and you're
going to have your hair pinned up and all bald up in the back
of your head. So how's anybody going to know
you're a Christian? God knows who we are. God knows
where we are. God set us apart. God called
us by the gospel. And our sanctification doesn't
depend on us. And I tell you what, if it did,
oh, it would be awful. I want to show you this in 1
Corinthians 6, chapter 6. Look in chapter 6. Oh, here's our sanctification.
He saved us and washed us with the cleansing of water by the
Word. Look in verse 9 of 1 Corinthians
6. Know ye not that the unrighteous
shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Thank God we got the
righteousness of Christ. Be not deceived, neither fornicators,
nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of
themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards,
nor revilers, nor extortioners. Now under the law and under reformed
places, if you've done all that stuff, they'd deter you, they'd
put you under watch. But look, God said they shall
not inherit the kingdom of God. And listen to this now. And such
were some you. That was your life. But you're
washed. Washed in what? The blood and
the Word. You are sanctified. And you're justified in the name
of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God. And you know
what the next thing Paul says? All things are lawful for me. You fellas go ahead and go out
in the law. All things are lawful for me. All right, let me tell you another
one. Christ has made not only our sanctification and our redemption,
but he's made our life. Made our life. Colossians 3. Colossians 3. He's made our life. He has made our life. You know,
as in Adam we all die, even so in Christ shall we all be made
alive. Paul says that I'm crucified
with Christ, nevertheless I live. That I, like I now live in the
flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me
and gave himself. I live by the faith of the Son
of God. It's Christ in you, that's the hope of glory. Our Lord said,
because I live, you shall live also. Look what he said here
in Colossians 3.3. For you are dead, dead to what? Dead to sin, dead to the world,
even considered dead to yourself. And your life is hid with Christ
in God. Now listen to this. When Christ,
our life, shall appear, then shall ye also
appear with him in glory. Did you notice it says Christ,
our life? Oh, listen. People said you need
to make Christ the most important thing in your life. That won't
work. That don't work. He's not second. He's not third. He's not the
most important thing in our life. He is our life. Where we got life if we ain't
got it in Christ? Huh? And I tell you that's why
Christ is all in all. It's Christ Himself. is our life. Our whole life is Christ. It's not a day goes by. Is there
a day in your life goes by that Christ is not on your mind? That
you don't call on Christ? That you don't look to Christ?
That you don't trust Christ? That you don't think of Christ?
That you don't read of Christ? You know why that is? He's your
life. He's your life. That's why you can't never die.
This body will, but we won't. Well, Christ, He died and put
away sin after sin was put away. He raised again from the dead.
Since I don't have no sin, my body's going to the grave, but
I'm going to Christ. Because He's life. And then,
not only that, but He's made our Lord. God made Him Lord. That's what you read at Gary
tonight in Philippians 2. God hath all highly exalted Him
and given Him a name that's above every name. that every knee should
bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to
the glory of God the Father. How did He become Lord? God made
Him. This same Jesus that you crucified,
God made Him both Lord and Christ. God decreed that He be Lord.
God designed his whole life and his death and his resurrection
that he might be Lord. Every deed he performed proved
that he was Lord. His death and his conquering
death proved he was Lord. And he's made our Lord. God made
him our Lord. And then look over in Hebrews
6 and I'll be done. Hebrews 6. We see Christ made,
but we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than angels for
the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor that we,
by the grace of God, should taste death for every man. He's made
a high priest. Look at Hebrews 6 and verse 20. Made a high priest, whither the
forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus made and high priest
forever after the order of Melchizedek. Who is Melchizedek? Well, the
scripture says that he has no pedigree. It says he has no father,
he has no mother, has no beginning of days, no ending of days. Nobody knows where he comes from.
There he was. He's the priest of the Most High
God. And that's the way our Lord Jesus Christ. He's a priest forever
after the order of Melchizedek. Look in Hebrews 7.25. Oh, he became what we would need.
He said in 17, wherefore he is able to save them to the uttermost
or forevermore that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth
to make intercession for them. Now listen to it. For such a
high priest became us, what was necessary for us. We needed something
that became us necessary for our needs, necessary for our
condition, necessary for where we are. And who became us who
is holy, we need somebody holy. harmless, somebody harmless,
somebody undefiled, somebody separate from sinners, somebody
higher than the heavens. And listen to this, who needeth
not daily to offer as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice
first for his own sins and then for the people's, for this he
did once when he offered up himself. He by one sacrifice One sacrifice
put away our sins once and for all. And He is with God and He has
all the power. You know, I said I was going
to quit, but look at Hebrews 14. Look at Hebrews 14. Not 14,
Hebrews 4, 14. Hebrews 4, 14. There ain't no
14 chapters in Hebrews. There's only 13. I thought to
mess you up, but you get over to Hebrews 14. Somebody talked
about Mark chapter 16 one time, 17 or 18 or something like that,
and the folks looked at it and said, it ain't in my Bible, I
must do this, it ain't in your Bible. But oh, here, look, and
I will be done with this right here, look what he says. Hebrews
4.14, seeing then that we have a great high priest that is passed
into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God. Let us hold fast our
profession or our confession of faith in Him, what we confess
about Him, what we profess about Him. For we have not a high priest
which cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities.
You know the Pope, he can't be touched with the feelings of
people's infirmities. This priest that runs this Catholic
Church up here, he can't be touched with the feelings of people's
infirmities. He's got infirmities of his own. But our high priest,
he can be touched with the feelings of our infirmities, but was in
all points tempted like as we, yet without sin. So that's the
way it is. He's in the heavens and he sits
at the right hand of God. Touched with the pillars of our
infirmity. He's without sin. Let us therefore
come boldly under the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy
and find grace to help in time of need. We've got that great
high priest. Well, let me ask you this in
conclusion, how do we see our Lord Jesus Christ made all these
things unto us? God taught us, God revealed them
to us, God made us to see them, God made us to believe them.
I didn't know any of these things until God taught them to me.
It's not by reasoning, it's not by logic, it's not by intellect,
but it's by faith that we see Jesus who was made a little lower
than the angels for the suffering of death. that he by the grace
of God should taste death for every man but was crowned with
glory and honor. Our gracious Father in heaven,
oh how gracious you are. How wonderfully kind and pitiful
you are to us. How patient, how tender you deal
with us. How lovely, how gracious, how
you come down to meet with us. Oh, blessed
be your name. Blessed be your name. God is
these dear saints of God, these people of God, these children
of God. Go their way. Go with them. Go before them and come behind
them with goodness and mercy. Bring glory to yourself through
this congregation of believers for the Lantana Grace Church.
Save your people in this place. Oh, so many here that's never
yet been saved by your grace. Never yet had their hearts broken.
Never yet had their eyes open. Never yet know what it is to
thank God for grace. Thank God for the blood of Christ.
Thank God for the grace of God. Thank God for the righteousness
of Christ. God, only you can make them see
it and experience it. We trust that you will in your
time. Bless them and keep them and
preserve them for Christ's sake. Amen. Turn your eyes upon Jesus And the things of earth will
grow strangely dim In the light of His glory and grace
