I'd like for you to turn with
me this morning to John chapter 10. My message this morning is you believe not because. Because. I've been in conversations with
men, talking to them, or they'll ask me a question, The reputation
of this church has gone out. Some of it good, some of it bad.
It's gone out around here in this local area. And usually
I'm hit with questions like these. Do you believe in predestination?
I said, well, I believe it's a biblical doctrine. I believe
it's stated in the Bible. Well, I don't believe in predestination
because. And they'll go on and on and
on. Well, they'll say something about
God's absolute sovereignty. Do you believe that God is sovereign
over all things? Yes, sir, I believe. Well, I
don't believe that. Because. Because. Well, I don't believe in elections
because. And in our text this morning,
our Lord looked at those Jews and He said, you don't believe
because... And He tells them why they don't
believe. And there are several places
here in John, if you'll read through this, building up to
this chapter, where He tells them why. Why they don't believe. They sought honor of men instead
of honor from God. He said, that's why you don't
believe. How can you believe? If you believed Moses, you'd
believe me. You don't believe because you
didn't believe Moses' testimony. And on and on and on he goes
and tells them why they didn't believe. The Lord Jesus Christ
tells these very religious men why they did not believe and
why his disciples did. In his plain language, there's
not a child in this church this morning who can't understand
this reason that he tells them. John chapter 10, let's read this,
beginning with verse 24. Then came the Jews round about him,
and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou
be the Christ, tell us plainly. Tell us plainly. Now listen to
this. Jesus answered, I told you. And you believe not. The works
that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness to me. You
know anybody can raise the dead? Huh? Y'all know anybody? Anybody around
can raise the dead? You know anybody around that
can say to a leper, be thou clean, and he can walk away clean? That's hard to explain away,
ain't it? In spite of the works he did, the works which God did
by him in your midst, Peter said, which ye yourselves also know.
You saw Lazarus come out of that tomb. That's when they threw
the hands up. They said, if somebody don't
stop him, we're going to lose everything. We're going to lose
our job. We're going to lose our title. We're going to lose
our religion. We're going to lose everything. Somebody got
to put an end to him. You can't compete with that.
Huh? He said, I told you. The works
that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness to me. Verse
26, but you believe not because, here it is, you're not of my
sheep. Oh, that's tough, ain't it? Huh? You're not my sheep. As I said
unto you, and if you want to see when he said it, all you
got to do is go back to the beginning of this chapter. He tells them. He said it before. As I said
unto you, my sheep hear my voice, and I know them. They're not
strangers to me. I know them. And they follow
Me. And I give unto them eternal
life, and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them
out of My hand. My Father which gave them Me
is greater than all, and no man is able to pluck them out of
My Father's hand. I and My Father are one." Now if words mean anything at
all, this text of Scripture tells you as plainly, as plainly As
you can be told, that faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the
one true identifying mark of God's elect. You believe not
because you're not of my sheep. My sheep believe. My sheep hear. My sheep follow. Huh? My sheep have everlasting
life. If you're here this morning and
you don't believe in the election of God, you need to buy a Bible.
And what's better than that? You need to read it. You need
to read it. You can't deny election. Elections
from one end of this book to the other. How in the world did
Abraham get to be the father of faith? He was over there in
Mesopotamia over there building idols in his father's workshop.
Building idols. He was an idol worshiper. Well,
how did he get to be the father of faith? God chose him. How many times does he tell you
that in the Old Testament? Over and over and over and over. The Word of God plainly declares
that God the Father chose a people in Christ to save them from their
sins for the glory of His name. And let me tell you something,
even these false prophets who stood here before the Lord demanding
answers from the Lord of glory believed in election. Yes, they
did. These Jews believed that they
were God's elect. They believe that every son of
Abraham who was ever born was a child of God by God's own choosing,
over and over and over. Why is it so easy to believe
that election is all right when it talks about a nation, but
it's not all right when it talks about an individual? What's the
difference? You mean to tell me you're more comfortable with
it? What if God didn't choose America? God just dumped him in the river,
and he may be doing that very thing. Boy, that would get you
upset, wouldn't it? They believed every son of Abraham
was a child of God by God's own choosing. And I'll tell you something
else. This world right now believes that Israel, that little nation
over there in the Middle East, are the elect of God. People
who don't know anything at all about this Bible. You go up and
talk to them about, oh, that's God's chosen people. The leaders
of nations that are not Christian nations are so scared that that's
God's elect. He put such a stamp of fear into
this world with what he did in Egypt. This world has never gotten
over it. And in their mind, that's God's
chosen people. Elect, elect. And actually, this
is how most people try to get around the doctrine of election
in the scripture. They say it only applies to the
Jew. But that can't possibly be. I'm
going to shoot that bubble down to you in several ways this morning.
First of all, I'm going to shoot it down right here. Listen to
this. It can't possibly be because
here in our text, the ones to whom he is speaking are Jews. Is that right? And the Jews gathered
around him and began to demand from him these things. This was
the leaders. This was the uppity-ups. This was those who stood for
that nation. This was the high council. They
stood there before the Lord demanding answers from him. And here is
what he said, You believe not because you are not of my sheep.
Boy, that blows that Abraham thing down, don't it? They weren't
his sheep. They weren't his sheep. Turn
with me to Ephesians chapter 1. Paul's epistle to the Ephesians
was written to a church primarily made up of Gentile believers.
He reminds them of that over in the second chapter, saying
in verse 11, he said, Wherefore remember that ye being in time
past Gentiles in the flesh called uncircumcised. They were aliens
from the Commonwealth of Israel. Is that enough? This epistle
wasn't written to Jews. It was written to Gentiles. Is there any doubt in anybody's
mind here this morning that this book was written to Gentiles?
Anybody got any doubt? It was written to Gentiles. Ephesians. All right, let's see
what you've got to say to it. Ephesians chapter 1, verse 3. Blessed be the God and Father
by our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with all spiritual
blessings in heavenly places in Christ. Now, I want you just
to pause there for just a minute. When God gave His Son to His people, He gave them everything. Can you see that in that verse?
He hath blessed us, God the Father, blessed us with all spiritual
blessings in heavenly places in Christ. When He gave His Son,
He gave everything. Paul tells us back there in Romans
chapter 8, he said, He that spared not his own son,
but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him
freely give us all that? Huh? If he gave you his son,
he gave it all to you. He gave it all. All spiritual blessings are inclusive
in the giving of his son. All right? Now watch this. According, all these blessings,
and the very Son of God, He's the substitute, He's the Redeemer,
He's the Messiah, He's the hope. According, as He hath chosen
us in Him before the foundation of the world. Ain't that what
that says? I can't be right. That's what it says. Here's why. That we should be holy and without
blame before Him in love. And that's the only way you can
be that way, is to be in Him. In Him. Would you want a big
TV screen If they had such an apparatus to reveal your love
for Christ and show it on screen, you'd crawl out here on your
knees. Yeah, you would. You wouldn't want that, would
you? That's the only way you can stand before Him in love,
is to stand before Him in Christ. Now, I'm not saying that believers
don't have a love for Christ. They do. But they repent of it. Huh? They repent of their love,
but they don't repent of His. And our Lord sits right now at
the right hand of God in perfect love, and I'm seated with Him.
I'm seated with Him. What's this? Verse 5, having
predestinated us. Now I'd shoot that telescope
of time theory all to pieces. God looked down through the telescope
of time and He'd see who would and wouldn't choose Him, who
would and wouldn't live a life honoring to Him and all that
garbage. This just blows that plumb house
out. Listen to this. Having predestinated us unto
the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself according to
what He'd see us do in time. No, that's not what that says. according to the good pleasure
of His will, and to the praise of the glory
of His grace, wherein He hath made us accepted in the below."
Now let me show you another passage over here in Acts chapter 13.
Turn over there with me. Paul and Barnabas was over here
in Antioch. And they were preaching. And
the Jews were there. There was a large number of Jews
in Antioch. Paul was a Jew. A lot of times
he began his ministry by going into the synagogue and preaching
to them. And he began to preach there.
And these Jews, the Scripture said, they encompass sea and
earth to make proselytes like unto them. And they get these
strangers and they convert them over under the Jewish religion, and
they'd have them circumcised. All the men had them circumcised
and all this stuff. They'd make proselytes. We do
the same thing. Do the same thing. In our day,
they're going around making proselytes just like them. And our Lord
said, when you made them, they're two-fold more of the child of
hell than you were. Those who make these proselytes.
Paul and Barnabas were preaching in Antioch. And these proselytes
began to see the folly of their ways. They began to see what
was going on. And what this true Jew was all
about. Paul was preaching to them. Telling
them what the true Jew was. What these things were all about.
Showing them how that Christ fulfilled all these Old Testament
types. He fulfilled the priesthood.
That was just a type. That was just a figure. All these
things that they were observing, these things were just shadows
and pictures and types. And boy, these proselytes got
interested. They got interested. And those
Jews were envious. And they got stirred up in their
heart. And so they come down and they called Paul and Barnabas
aside and began to criticize them and treat them, you know,
Spitefully and finally, Paul said, verse 46, it was necessary,
it was necessary that the Word of God should first have been
spoken to you. But seeing you put it from you
and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, I turn
to the Gentiles. For so hath the Lord commanded
us, saying, I have sent thee to be a light of the Gentiles,
that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth."
Verse 48. And when the Gentiles heard this,
they were glad. They had been told nobody was
going to be saved but Jews. Paul said, that just ain't so.
That just ain't so. They were glad and they glorified
the Word of the Lord. They saw how this thing could
be according to the Word of God. Now hang on to your hats. And
as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. What? These are Gentiles. You mean
God ordained Gentiles to eternal life? That's exactly what it
is. You can't take election and make it apply to the Jewish nation. It's utterly impossible. Utterly
impossible. God has a people whose names
were written in the Lamb's Book of Life before the foundation
of the world. Now, somebody's going to say,
well, you mean if we truly repent and believe that if I'm not elected,
I can't be saved? No, that's not what I'm preaching
at all. Not what I'm preaching at all. I'm saying that nobody
but God's elect will. That's what I'm saying. You have to be given the gift
of faith. It ain't on the shelf. You can't
go, well, I think I'll get me some faith and go over at the
pantry and take it off the shelf. It's not in the potential of
a human to believe. You don't believe that, do you? You
don't believe that. I'll tell you this, you get your
Bible and you get along, you get along in the closet and you
read that Bible, man can believe. That's a bunch of poppycock. That's exactly what that is.
Let me tell you something, most Jews studied the scriptures from
front to back. They knew the scriptures sideways,
upside down and backwards. They knew wherever comma, wherever
period. They knew the word that was capitalized. And when it wasn't capitalized,
they knew every jot and tittle. They transcribed the scriptures.
And he told them, he said, you search the scriptures. For in
them you think you have eternal life. And they are they that
testify of me. But you will not come to me that
you might have life. Why not? Because you're under
sin. You're dead. You're dead. You ain't going
to believe anything. You're not going to see anything.
You're not going to hear anything unless God sends His Spirit and
gives you life. That's when you'll believe. And
I'll tell you to whom He sends His Spirit, His elect. That's
it. You believe not because you're
not of my sheep. My sheep hear my voice. They
hear my voice. Let me tell you something. Over
in Romans chapter 3, He gives us four nuns. Four nuns. These four nuns shoot down any
and all hope in man's work and man's potential. Listen to this. There is none righteous. How many? None. Listen to this. There's none that understandeth. There's none that seeketh after
God. And there's none good. Now I'm
telling you, you take those four laws, those four declarations,
and you've just shot down every religion in this country. There
ain't going to be a handful left. Because everything they preach
depends on man's understanding, depends on man's righteousness,
depends on man's goodness. There's a little bit of good
in all men. No, there ain't. There's none good. None good. Isaiah said, He hath
given us beauty for ashes. You know what ashes mean? The
fire went out. I was raised with an old wood
stove. And I tell you, you get up in the morning up in northern
Ohio, and it's about 20 below zero, and man, you're just shivering. You're under three or four quilts,
and you finally get up enough courage to get up and see what's
going on. You open that stove door, and there ain't nothing
there but ashes. Means the fire went out. The fire went out, and man, when
Adam fell. Gone. Gone. Ain't no need to peel the hill. He never, never, not in all the
pictures in the Old Testament, he never pictures man with any
potential when he talks about this thing of preaching, when
he prophesies to that future gospel age when Christ shall
come and ascend into heaven, send His Spirit to the earth,
and send out His messengers. Here's what he does. He took old Ezekiel out there
in the desert and he said, what do you see? He looked around
and he said, all I see is bones. Huh? What's he talking about?
He's talking about this future day of preaching. He said, can
them bones live? Can they? Oh, Lord, God, thou
knowest. That's the only answer there
is. All right. God said, preach to
them. Preach to them. He did. Preach to them. prophesy to. To bones? To bones. To dead men? To dead men. What am I going to tell them?
Live. Live. He didn't say tell them
to come down an aisle. He didn't tell them to change
their theology. He told them to live. Our Lord said, you believe not
because you are not of My sheep. As I said unto you, My sheep
hear My voice. And I know them, and they follow
Me, and I give unto them eternal life. How did they get it? He
gave it to them. He gave it to them. God chose His people. He
knew their helplessness, their hopelessness, their poverty,
and their ignorance. He knew what kind of shape we'd
be in under sin, under the dominion of it, the influence of it, the
lust of it, the possession of it, the bondage of it. Well,
don't election violate man's free will. It would if he had
one. But his will ain't free. If there's none that understandeth,
then your will is in bondage to your ignorance, isn't it? If there's none righteous, then
your will is in bondage to young godliness. If there's none that
seeketh after God, then their will is in bondage to false religion,
and they walk in the vanity of their minds. And if there's none
good, then our wills are in bondage to evil. All of Adam's race is
under sin. And being under sin, nothing
has any effect on him at all. Not the scriptures, not preaching,
not even the Son of God has an effect on a man who's under sin. Not till God Himself gives him
life. Nothing. Them Jews wasn't affected. He said, here's condemnation.
Light has come into the world. And men love darkness rather
than light. All of Adam's race are under
sin, and being under sin, nothing has any effect on him at all.
Not conscience, not creation, nothing. I want you to listen
to me. Election not only singles out
a man for mercy, but it's inseparably connected with all the means
to save him to the uttermost. You can't separate election over
here in the corner somewhere and then forget about the rest
of it. It's all connected. I don't preach a gospel that
saves unwilling rebels who won't bow to the Word of God, the way
of God, the Son of God, or the means of God. I don't preach
a gospel that saves men no matter what. That's ignorant. I preach a gospel that is inclusive
of all things. to make him willing to turn them
from their sins, to give them an appetite for the gospel, to
make them willing bond slaves in Christ and sanctify their
walk in this world. It's all inclusive. It's all
connected. And nobody, nobody, I don't care
how smart he is, how humble he is, how clever he is, how good
he is, nobody will ever believe the gospel except those chosen
of God. And those who believe everything
else follows. It follows. 2 Thessalonians 2, verse 13. I
want you to listen to this. Turn over with me. I quote it
all the time, but let's read it. 2 Thessalonians 2, verse
13. God offering thanks to these people in the light of that Antichrist
spirit who through the ages gets stronger, Stronger and stronger. And all those influenced by him,
those evil men and seducers, are going to wax worse and worse.
And in those days, he said, nobody's going to endure sound doctrine.
They're not going to have it. These things are growing. And
men under the influence of that Antichrist spirit, they're not
going to receive the love of the gospel that they might be
saved. And God's going to send them strong to lose them and
let them believe whatever they want to. Let them swallow at
hook, line, and sinker, die in their sins." But he said, I thank
God for you, brethren, beloved of the Lord. You see where he
is coming from now in his prayer? Because God has from the beginning
chosen you to salvation, listen, through sanctification of the
Spirit and Belief of the truth. Where unto, he said, he called
you by our gospel. Isn't there something? All connected. All connected. And I'm going to tell you something.
You can't have the first part without the last part. And you
can't have the last part without the first part. Well, I'm saved,
but I don't believe in election. You can't have the last part
without the first part and the first part without the last part.
It's all connected. I Peter 1, verse 2. Here's another
introduction. He said, we're elect according
to the foreknowledge of God the Father through sanctification
of the Spirit unto obedience. and sprinkling of the blood of
Jesus Christ. It's all connected, all inclusive,
all of God and all of grace. And every man that hears must
be born again. Every man that hears must hear
from God's messenger. Every man that hears must be
broken, made obedient. Every man that hears must repent
and turn to God. Every man that hears must be
made willing in the day of God's power. And every man that hears
will follow the Lord. Can you see that? I know what men are all about.
I can tell you things this morning that make you blush. Right. Make you ashamed. I've listened
to Henry sometimes talking about sinners. And boy, I just wanted
to crawl out of the place. I didn't want to talk to anybody
or anything. I just wanted to leave. Things
that make you angry. Man's nothing but a wiggling
maggot, feeding on the corruption of his own flesh. Just a maggot. He revels in it. He rejoices
in it. Job said he drinks iniquity like
water. And I wouldn't waste my time
talking to anybody if I did not believe that God is willed by
an unchangeable, unchangeably sovereign and gracious will to
save somebody for His glory. I wouldn't waste my time. And
that's all it is. God Himself has engaged all things
to accomplish this very thing. In Christ, he said, we have obtained
an inheritance being predestinated according to the purpose of him
who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will. God rested on the seventh day
because he turned all things over into the hands of a sovereign
mediator. And no man can take anything
out of the hands of Christ or cause anything the Father has
purposed to fail because they're one and nobody can pluck them
out of His hands. Who's going to take you out of
His hands? Problem is, you've never seen yourself in His hands.
Huh? You've seen yourself in your
own hands. I do this, and I'll do that, and I'll do this, and
I can learn this, and I can go here, and I can do... That ain't
it. I'm telling you. That ain't it. You want to know the gospel?
You go home and turn on any Armenian preacher there is in this country,
and you get you a piece of paper, and everything that man says,
you write down the opposite. And you have the gospel. Am I
telling the truth? That's the truth. You know what
the scripture says? They've gone away backwards.
Huh? Backwards. That's right. Everything they do. Now these things of mine, let
me just go briefly over the words of our Lord here in John chapter
10. He said, you believe not because you're not of my sheep.
What's He saying when He said that? He's saying that everything
from election clear through to the end, what He's talking about.
He ain't just talking about they wasn't chosen of God. He's talking
about all, I told you, you can't separate these things. What he's
saying is there's no inward working of the Spirit taking the things
of Christ and showing them unto you. I told you plainly. You
didn't hear me. You didn't hear me. My words
are Spirit, he said back there when they was all leaving. My
words are Spirit. And they're alive. No inward
working of the Spirit taking the things of Christ and showing
them unto you. There's no subjection to God's
ministers or the message. They didn't respect him at all.
There's no revelation of their sin or their inability. There's
no being shut up to the sovereign mercy and grace of God. They
were standing before the Son of God in whom God's pure glory
shined, the brightness of the Father's glory, and they didn't
see anything. Demanding from Him. We are demanding
of you. You tell us plainly. I told you. Told you. There is no being shut
up to the Word of God. The natural man receiveth not
the things of the Spirit of God, neither can he know them, because
they are spiritually discerned. You believe not, because you
are not of My sheep. My sheep hear My voice. What in the world is that talking
about? We go home, lay down in the bed,
we've heard the gospel, and we go home, lay down in the bed,
and then we wave around to hear the voice of Christ. Is that
what he's saying here? Does he just whisper in our ears? Is that what it is? How do we,
what in the world is he talking about? My sheep hear my voice. Well, it means two things. It
means, first of all, the Word of God. The Word of God is the
testimony of God concerning His Son. Read about it over in 1
John chapter 5. This is my testimony that I've
given eternal life to my sheep. And this life is in my Son. He that hath Son hath life, he
that hath not. To believe not this testimony
is to call God a liar. Talking about the Word of God,
the message of Christ. Turn with me to Luke chapter
10. And here's the second thing.
It means the voice of His chosen ambassador who has preached the
gospel of Christ to Him. In this case, it was Christ Himself. Now watch this here in Luke chapter
10, verse 16. He's sending out these 70 preachers. Sending them out to preach. He
that heareth you, heareth me. Oh, that's how we hear His voice. And that's how you hear it not,
too. That's how you hear it not. And he that despiseth you despiseth
me, and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me. That's
how you hear His voice. Listen to this, Matthew 10, verse
14. And whosoever shall not receive
you, nor hear your words, when you depart out of that house,
or out of that city, shake off the dust off your feet. Verily
I say unto you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom
and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city. Now watch this, I Thessalonians
2.13, For this cause also thank we
God without ceasing, because when you received the word of
God which you heard of us, you received it not as the word of
men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually
worketh also in you that believe. Now this thing of election is
not just being chosen of God, but it's being chosen unto salvation
through the effectual working of the Holy Ghost through gospel
preaching. That's how it comes. I've read
you so many scriptures this morning. How many times has God had to
say something for it to be so? But I've given you several scriptures
this morning. And then watch this. Here's some
more of His words here in John chapter 3. He said, I give unto
them eternal life. What's that mean? That means
to know God. To know God. John 17, verse 3,
This is eternal life, that they may know Thee, the only true
God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou sent. That's eternal life. I give that to them. How come you know all of the attributes of God
and rejoice in them, and the first guy you tell won't have
nothing to do with you. Why is that? Because you have
eternal life. That's why. You have eternal
life. That's what eternal life is,
is to know God. I mean, you know Him. Ain't nobody
going to move you off that. Somebody going to convince you
God ain't sovereign, you that believe the... Ain't no way.
Ain't no way. And they can talk about the philosophies
of Chin and all this other garbage they want to bring up. I'm telling
you, you ain't moving me off this. I know God. And that's
why religion is a bunch of poppycock. Exactly why it is. Because it's
so contrary to God. I know God. 1 John 5, verse 20, we know that
the Son of God has come. given to us an understanding
that we may know Him that's true, that we're in Him that's true,
even in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal
life. My sheep hear my voice. They
hear my gospel. They hear my messenger. They
hear my message. And I know them. I know who they
are. We've got this seal. God knoweth
them that are His. That's it. He knows us. I know. And they follow me. They believe on, rejoice in,
and rest in Christ. They walk in, look to, and hope
in Christ. They feed on and worship the
Lord Jesus Christ. And they persevere in Christ.
They're rooted and built up in Him, Paul said, established in
the faith and abound with thanksgiving. I give unto them eternal life.
Now watch this. They're never going to pass Oh, my. What about when my mind goes? What about when my mind goes
and I can't remember my own name? George Fay told me one time Amos
woke up and said, what are you doing here? What are you doing
in my house? What about when my mind goes?
What about when I don't know who I am? What about when I forget? I forget. I can't remember what I read. They'll never perish. Huh? They'll never perish. But what
about when sin and the old corruptor gets inside and draws me away
and I fall like David? And he gets his way like he did
with Solomon. What then? They'll never perish. But what about when things happen? And those you depend on and those
you love and they're taken out of this world or sickness and
all of these things come about and they're just ripping you
to pieces and the economy and all... They'll never perish.
Never perish. What about when my whole family
turns against me? Won't have nothing to do with
me. Won't listen to nothing I... They'll never perish. Huh? Never perish. Somebody told me
one time, said, yeah, I know no man can pluck you out of his
hand, but you can pluck yourself. Yeah, he probably could out of
the hand of his God, but you ain't going to pluck yourself
out of the living God's hand. No man going to pluck you out
of my hand. Boy, I tell you, in the beginning,
it scared me to death to think about myself in his hand. Right now, there's nowhere I'd
rather be. You see that? That's what he's
telling them. That's what salvation is. It's
to be in the hands of Him who can't do wrong. He can't do wrong. He can't do it. It's an impossibility.
It ain't in His character. He can't do wrong. And everything
I do is Preacher, how can you preach
so dogmatic on the salvation of sinners? What makes you so
sure about that fixed end? Are you listening to me? Because
no man can pluck you out of his hand. That's why. I don't have
confidence in my confidence. I don't have confidence in my
faith. I've got confidence in Him. That's what Paul said. He was
persuaded. That he was able to keep that
which I've committed unto him against that day. I have confidence
in Christ. Confidence in Christ. You don't
have confidence in Christ, you need to study Christ. See who
he is. See who he is. And I tell you,
you buried it first. You mean he can do it? Yeah,
he can do with you whatever he will. But I tell you, his will
is better than yours. It's better than yours. His will
ain't in bondage. And he can do his will, you can't
even do yours.
