Warm greetings, friends, near
and far. The Lord Jesus Christ be magnified
forever and ever. This is Sinner Saved coming at
you with the following short evangelistic gospel message,
which is sponsored by preacher Wayne Boyd and the Brethren in
Christ at First Baptist Church located in Almonte, Michigan,
USA. And God willing, this broadcast
will reach you, Lima Charlie, loud and clear. It is my hope
and prayer unto God Most High, the only Holy Father, that His
only begotten Son, Christ Jesus, the Lord our righteousness, be
greatly exalted, that His everlasting gospel be clearly proclaimed,
that the pride of mere flesh and blood men be humbled, and
that His elect saints be greatly encouraged and comforted in these
evil and perilous times. Please consider having paper
and pencil handy to jot down the scriptural references for
your own follow-up study. And so we begin with the weekend
gospel message to follow for all hands. Heads up! Please find enclosed encouragement
in so great salvation by the perfect and finished work of
our Lord Jesus Christ in saving poor, needy, and wretched sinners
by his sovereign free grace. That is to say, Almighty God,
in His unmerited favor, to save me and you from our sins and
from hell. May I beg you carefully to judge
every preacher, not by his gifts, not by his elocutionary powers,
not by his status in society, not by the respectability of
his congregation, and not by the prettiness of his church
building, but this. Does he preach the word of truth,
the gospel of your salvation? If he does, your sitting under
his ministry may prove to you the means of beginning faith
in you. But if he does not, you cannot expect God's blessing. That was from an unknown preacher
of righteousness. And the Master says in John 3.36,
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life. And he
that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of
God abideth on him. In this verse, we see that the
main evidence of salvation, of having eternal life, is God-given
faith in Christ, the Son of God, whose name is Jesus. For He shall
save His people from their sins. see Matthew 121. His name is
Immanuel, which being interpreted is God with us. Matthew 1.23. His name is the Lord our righteousness. Please see Jeremiah 23.5 and
Jeremiah 33.16. As it is by his obedience unto
death as our surety, substitute, sin bearer, and redeemer, that
all of God's elect shall be saved and brought to faith in him in
repentance of dead works and idolatry. Such are sinners saved
eternally by God's grace in Christ. The main evidence of being condemned
under God's wrath is unbelief of Christ in the glory of His
person and power of His finished work of righteousness. Such are
sinners who shall not see life, They will live in unbelief, die
in unbelief, and spend eternity separated from God. You may ask,
is there any hope then for me? Consider, are you a sinner? Yes. God's Word says that God
sent His Son into the world to save sinners. How does God save
sinners? He saves them by His grace through
the blood and righteousness of the Lord Jesus Christ. He brings
them in power to believe and rest in Christ for all salvation,
with all the blessings and benefits of eternal life. Do you believe
on the Son of God, who by Himself fulfilled all the conditions
of your salvation? Do you know that you have no
righteousness to plead before God, but Christ's righteousness
imputed in which you have received by God-given faith? Do you admit
that if God were to judge you based on your best and most sincere
efforts, you would be condemned forever? If you do, you are God's
workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which
God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Ephesians
2.10. And that message was from preacher
Bill Parker of Eager Avenue Grace Church, located Albany, Georgia,
USA. Glory to God on high, let earth
to heaven reply, praise ye his name. Angels his love adore,
who all our sorrow bore, and saints cry evermore, worthy the
Lamb. All they around the throne carefully
join in one, praising his name. We who have known his blood sealing
our peace with God, sound his dear name abroad, worthy the
Lamb. join all ye ransomed race our
lord and god to bless praise ye his name to him we'll tribute
bring hail him our sovereign king and without ceasing sing
worthy the lamb that was the lyrics to the old hymn come thou
almighty king There is no grace but free and sovereign grace. There is no election but eternal
and unconditional election. There is no redemption but particular
and effectual redemption. There is no salvation but by
the irresistible grace and omnipotent power of God the Holy Spirit.
And there is no security but by the absolute preservation
of God's immutable goodness. And any pretended gospel that
does not proclaim these things is, as Paul says, another gospel
that is damning to the souls of men. That was from an unknown
preacher of righteousness. The Christian preacher is to
be neither a speculator who invents new doctrines which please him,
nor an editor who excises old doctrines which displease him,
but a steward, God's steward, dispensing faithfully to God's
household the truths committed to him in the scriptures. Nothing
more, nothing less, and nothing else." That was from preacher
John R. W. Scott. growing in grace. Remember that among your chief
thoughts of the Lord Jesus, one must ever have a prominent place,
that He is ever looking down upon you, and watching you with
tenderest love, and ordering all things for your good. Sometimes
it is spiritual medicine, at other times it is spiritual nourishment,
but at all times it is spiritual good and just what is best for
you. He sees and knows just what is
best for each day and hour. So, always, when you think of
Him, think of Him as thus looking down upon you and ever caring
for you. The Holy Spirit is ever leading
us to think of Christ and to live for Christ and continually
to look to Christ. The natural mind makes self the
center and self the end. The spiritual mind makes Christ
the center and Christ the end. The more we seek Christ and the
less we seek self, the more we please him. Christ is the source
and end, both of grace on earth and glory in heaven. Grace in
the heart is glory in its beginnings. Glory in heaven is grace in its
full consummation. Growing in grace is living more
upon Christ and living more for Christ and growing more like
Christ. To learn of Christ and live upon
Christ is the highest experience of the soul here or hereafter. And that was from preacher Thomas
Moore. His name is spelled M-O-O-R,
and it's an excerpt from a book that I highly recommend to you,
dear ones. You might want to write this
down. The name of the book is Counsels
and Thoughts for the Spiritual Life Believers from the year
of our Lord 1882 in fact preacher Wayne Boyd bought bought me that
book a year or two ago. It is outstanding One more time
counsels and thoughts for the spiritual life of believers Thomas
Moore mo or true growth in grace A reading from 1 Peter 2, 7.
Unto you, therefore, which believe, he is precious. The word precious
has a stronger meaning than appears on its surface. It is really
to you who believe he is preciousness or all precious. Christ is a
sun which ever shines, a garden which is always full of flowers
and fruits, a hive ever full of honey. a fountain which is
always full, a brook which never dries, a rose that always blooms,
an ocean of sweetness without a drop of gall. To the child
of God, a personal living Christ is most dear. He is not satisfied
with a mere love for Christ's doctrines, Christ's promises,
or Christ's gifts. His affections entwine themselves
round about Christ's person. Jesus is to him his brother,
friend, and companion, the one with whom he walks and talks.
True growth in grace consists of a personal Savior growing
increasingly precious. How sad it is that so many fall
short of this experience. Their religion is entered more
in a code of rules and collections of doctrines than in the person
of the dear Redeemer. Yes, to you who believe, he himself
is precious. Not only his house, for it is
quite possible to like a person's house exceedingly and yet have
no particular love for the owner of that house. Not only his book,
for there are many books you may enjoy reading and yet have
neither knowledge of nor affection for the author. Not only his
gifts, for how many there are who value a man's gifts while
they despise him in their heart. But he himself, apart from all
that he gives, will be your heart's dearest love. My God, I love
you, not because I hope for heaven thereby, nor because those who
love you not must burn eternally, not with the hope of gaining
anything nor seeking a reward, but as yourself have loved me,
O ever-loving Lord. from Psalm 73 25 Whom in whom
have I in heaven but thee and there is none upon earth that
I desire besides thee and that nice message was from preacher
Archibald Brown and A successful election of grace. How sweet
and glorious it is for the children of God to consider the gracious
sovereign choice of the Lord in putting our names in the Lamb's
book of life. See Revelation 13.8. Before the
world began, election unto salvation is a foundational doctrine. We
trace the origin of our salvation back to the dateless eternity
when the Lord chose a people unto salvation. Please see 2
Thessalonians 2.13. It is for certain that every
sinner chosen to salvation and redeemed by the blood of the
Son will be regenerated and effectually called to believe on the Lord
Jesus Christ. Abram was an idolater, but being
one of God's elect, he was sought out and found in Ur of the Chaldees. Rahab was a harlot, but before
her city could be destroyed, she must be rescued from the
destruction which was to come. The Lord of Glory found Zacchaeus
up a tree in that accursed city of Jericho. The dying thief was
a convicted felon, just a breath away from eternity, yet at the
appointed time, the sovereign savior revealed himself to his
heart. Saul of Tarsus was called out
of self-righteous That was from preacher Jim Byrd of 13th Street
Baptist Church located in Ashland, Kentucky, USA. Some preachers want to arouse
man's activity. We want to kill it once and for
all to show him that he is lost and ruined and that his activities
are not able to save him. Some seek to make the man stand
up. We seek to bring him down and make him feel that he is
in the hands of God and that his business is to submit to
God, bow to the claims of Christ, and cry, Lord, save me or I perish. We hold that a man is never so
near grace as when he feels that he can do nothing at all but
cry for mercy. But when he says, I can pray,
I can believe, I can do this or that, the marks of self-sufficiency
are still on his brow. That outstanding message was
from preacher Henry Mahan. It is written in Isaiah 45, 22,
where our Lord Jesus Christ commands, look unto me and be ye saved
all the ends of the earth for I am God and there is none else. The master also says in Matthew
11, 28 through 30, come unto me all ye that labor and are
heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and
learn of me for I am meek and lowly in heart. And ye shall
find rest unto your souls, for my yoke is easy, and my burden
is light. Friends, it is imperative that
you flee to Christ Jesus today, not tomorrow, for none of us
are promised another day on this planet. Today is the day of salvation. Call upon the name of the Lord
while he may be found, and seek him while he is near. Only by
being in Christ, the ark of our salvation, may we be delivered
from the fierce wrath of Almighty God, which is coming soon upon
the wicked. This about wraps up this evening's
broadcast. I trust Almighty God will awaken
His sleeping elect and draw multitudes of men, women, and children from
around the world, near and far, to His only begotten Son, Christ
Jesus, the Lord our righteousness. Yahovah Sidkenu, bless his name,
