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 Almont, 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 days. 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
and His unmerited favor to save me and you from our sins and
from hell. saved by Christ. If salvation
depends upon our being or doing anything, we shall inevitably
be lost. Thank God it does not, for the
great fundamental principle of the gospel is that Christ is
all. Man is nothing. It is not a mixture of Christ
and man. It is all of Christ. The peace of the gospel does
not rest in part on Christ's work and in part on man's work.
It rests wholly on Christ's work, because that work is perfect,
perfect forever, and it renders all who put their trust in him
as perfect as himself. Christ must either be a whole
Savior or no Savior at all. The moment a man says, except
you be this or that, you cannot be saved, he totally subverts
the gospel. For in the gospel, I find Christ
coming down to me just as I am, a lost guilty, self-destroyed
sinner, and coming moreover with a full remission of all my sins
and a full salvation from my lost estate, all perfectly wrought
by himself on the cross." That was preacher C.H. McIntosh. A word to the weak. Know for
your comfort that the weakest believer is as nearly related
to God as a father as the strongest believer is. Every branch of
a tree is not alike, strong nor big, and yet the tenderest twig
is united to the root. The weakest believer is clothed
with the white raiment of Christ's righteousness and is much sanctified
and justified thereby as the strongest believer. There is
no condemnation to all who are in Christ. The weakest believer
shall endure to the end. They're all kept by the power
of God through faith to salvation. It is not he that believes strongly
who shall be saved, but he that believes. Lord, I believe, help
thou mine unbelief. That was from preacher Ebenezer
Erskine. When it comes to the Bible, there
are two things we as believers should always consider when we
are considering what to believe. think, say, and do. First, that
all scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for
doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction, and righteousness,
that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly finished unto all
good works. Please see 2 Timothy 3, 16 through
17. Second, that all scripture concerns
Christ The Master said, Search the Scriptures, for in them ye
think ye have eternal life, and they are they which testify of
me. John 5, 39. Consider the following. The Holy Scripture is the only
rule of faith and practice. The true Christian was intended
by Christ to prove all things by the Word of God, all churches,
all ministers, all teaching, all preaching, all doctrines,
all sermons, all writings, all opinions, and all practices. These are his marching orders. Prove all by the word of God. Measure all by the measure of
the Bible. Compare all with the standard
of the Bible. Weigh all in the balances of
the Bible. Examine all by the light of the
Bible. Test all in the crucible of the
Bible. That which can abide the fire
of the Bible, receive, hold, believe, and obey. That which
cannot abide the fire of the Bible, reject, refuse, repudiate,
and cast away. Now let us praise the God of
grace, who chose a remnant from our race, elect from every tribe
and tongue. Let praises unto God be sung. Chosen in Christ our living head,
who came and suffered in our stead. He died for all his chosen
seed and lives for us to intercede. In time the mighty spirit came
brought us to trust the savior's name to us by his death on calvary
from guilt and sin He set us free Lord now thy people come
to bring all praise to thee our god and king We join our voices
to proclaim the worthy honors of thy name That was written
by preacher jim bird to the tune of the old hymn doxology the
prayer of the righteous Proverbs 15 29. The Lord is far from the
wicked, but he heareth the prayer of the righteous. Hallelujah. The Lord is omnipresent as to
his power, providence, and purpose. He is also omniscient, knowing
all things that happen in his vast creation. He does not, however,
have respect to or regard unbelievers. And so Solomon says he is far
from the wicked. He is far from them to hear their
prayers and help. to help them in their time of
need. No person, work, or prayer is ever received by the Lord
except through the appointed mediator and upon the basis of
Christ's life laid down. The wicked are far from Christ,
and God will not receive them now, for there can be no fellowship
or communion between a fallen rebel and the holy God except
through Christ. The master says in John 14, six,
no man cometh to the father, but by me. And he will be far
from the wicked throughout eternity, not permitting them into his
presence. His holiness will not allow any communion between himself
and the wicked. The thrice holy God and the wicked
are separated by sin. All who die in their sins, therefore,
must be separated from the Lord forever. The righteous, however,
those who are made the righteousness of God in Christ, please see
2 Corinthians 5.21, may freely draw near to the Lord in prayer,
even as He draws near to them in grace. Think of this great
privilege. He heareth, that means God hearkens
to, the prayer of the righteous. All who come to the Father by
His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, God will hear their prayer and
welcome their person into His presence. What an honor! The
eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and His ears are open
unto their cry. Psalm 34, 15. Our heavenly Father is not like
the gods of the heathen of whom we read. They have ears, but
they hear not, neither is there any breath in their mouths. Psalm
135, 17. God truly hears the prayers of
the righteous, and we may rest assured that He hears and listens
with undivided attention. Behold, the Lord's hand is not
shortened that it cannot save, neither His ear heavy that it
cannot hear." Isaiah 59, 1. The ear of the Lord is not heavy. That is, God is not insensitive
or unresponsive to His children. He hears with fatherly affection
Pardon me, friends. He hears with fatherly affection,
interest, and concern. Since the Lord is ready to hear
us when we pray, and since we have a great high priest who
has entered into the heavens having accomplished. eternal
redemption for us and opening and entrance for us into the
presence of God. Let us therefore come boldly
unto the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy and find
grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4.16. The following is
an excerpt from ears from harvested sheaves and the poor man's evening
portion. First Timothy 4.8. having promise
of the life that now is and of that which is to come. True religion
lies deep. It is not a balloon hovering
over us miles up in the air. It is like truth. It lies at
the bottom of the well. We must go down then into religion
if we are to have it really in our hearts. The Lord Jesus Christ
was a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. He took the lowest,
the last, the least place. He was always down so that if
we are to be companions with the Lord Jesus Christ, we must
go down with him down into the valley. Down into the suffering,
down into humiliation, down into trial, down into sorrow. When
we get puffed up by worldly joy or elated by carnal excitement,
we do not sympathize with the Lord Jesus Christ and his suffering
manhood. We do not go with him then into
the garden of Gethsemane, nor behold him as the Lamb of God
on the accursed tree. We can do without Jesus very
well when the world smiles and carnal things are uppermost in
our heart. But let affliction come, a heavy
cross, a burden to weigh us down. Then we drop into the place where
the Lord Jesus is only to be found. We find then, if the Lord
is pleased to bring a little godliness into the soul and to
draw forth this godliness into vital exercise, that it has the
promise of the life that now is. There are promises connected
with it of support and strength, comfort, consolation and peace
that the world knows nothing of. There is a truth in it, a
power, a reality, a blessedness in it that tongue can never express. And when the soul gets pressed
down into the veil of affliction and the Lord is pleased to meet
it there and visit it then and draw forth godliness in its actings
and exercises, then it is found to have the promise of the life
that now is. Faith, hope, love, repentance,
prayerfulness, humility, contrition, Longsuffering and peace, all
these gifts and graces of the Spirit are exercised chiefly
when the soul is down in affliction. Here is the promise of the life
that now is in the drawing forth of these heavenly graces in the
heart. In godliness hath the promise
also of the life which is to come. It supports in life and
in death. It takes the soul into a happy
and blessed eternity. Grace will end in glory, faith
in sight, hope in fruition. The soul taught of God will see
Jesus as he is. Thus, godliness has the promise
of the life which is to come. When eternal peace shall abound,
tears be wiped off all faces and grace consummated in endless
bliss. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ.
That was from preacher J.C. Philpott. 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 around
the world to His only begotten Son, Christ Jesus, the Lord,
our righteousness. Yehovah Sidkenu. Bless the name. Baruch Hashem. Forever and ever,
Lord, be Thou magnified. If you are led of the Lord to
