beautifully sung. Turn with me to Job 19. Job 19. It's always a delight to be here and
I wished I was here And Todd was here. But that's the way it is. And
I'd like to have a pastor when I'm gone to come and preach,
but the two that I ask is tied up. But we've got three men in
our congregation. It's very, very capable like
they are here. I want to read here in verse
23 of Job 19. Oh, that my words were now written. Oh, that they were printed in
a book. That they were craven with an iron pen and laid in
the rock forever. For I know that my Redeemer liveth
and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth. And
though after my skin worms destroyed this body, yet in my flesh shall
I see God. whom I shall see for myself. And mine eyes shall behold, and
not another, though my reins be consumed within me." This
message, I've titled it, Job's Confession of Faith. Job's Confession
of Faith. Job had three friends, and he
called them miserable comforters. You turn, just keep this Job
19, and look in chapter 16, verse 2 with me. Job is answering these
fellas. They're just making his life
miserable, and he answered and said, I've heard many such things,
miserable comforters are you all. Here's a man, supposed to
have three friends, And they were like most people, their
religion consisted. And their knowledge of God consisted
is, is if you're living right, living good, living to the best
of your ability, then God's got to bless you. And if you sin,
do something awful, something calamity comes upon you, then
that's evidence that you've sinned. And so God comes down hard on
you like He did Job. And that's what they kept telling
Job. If you, you've done something horrible, or God wouldn't treat
you like this. You've done something terrible.
And that's why He says you're miserable comforters, all of
you. And then He back, let's look
down here now in chapter 19. Let's start down here in verse
1. And just till I get to where
I want to go. And oh, He's Job's in horrible
darkness of soul. And He asked them, How long will
you vex my soul? How long will you trouble my
soul? How long will you reproach me
and break me in pieces with words? You know the scriptures tells
us that the tongue, the tongue is the most dangerous member
of the body. In it lies the poison of Asp,
that it sets a world of iniquity on fire, even sets on fire the
course of hell itself. The least member we got, our
tongue, caused more trouble than anything else. And that's what
he says. You take your tongue and kill me and break me in pieces
with your words. And these ten times have you
reproached me. Reproached me. You've chosen
me and accused me of things. And you're not ashamed to make
yourself strange to me. You don't act like my friends.
You don't act like people that love me. You don't act like people
that understand what I'm going through. And be it indeed that
I have erred, mine error remains with me. It ain't for you to
say. It remains with me. If indeed
you magnify yourself against me and plead against my reproach.
Now listen to what he says. Know now that God hath overthrown
me. God's done this to me. God did
this. And hath compassed me with his
net. And look what he says down in verse 9. He has stripped me
of my glory and taken the crown from my head. Now he says God
put me in this situation. God's put me in this darkness.
God took the crown off of my head thinking I was something,
thinking I'd arrived, thinking that I was going to be somebody.
And I was wealthy and I had power and prestige. God read you up
and took the crown off my head and stripped me of my glory. And oh listen, I tell you that's
one thing that we're going to learn. We're going to learn this
and God's going to teach it to us if we're His children. He's
going to teach us that we're going to trust Him. We're going
to count on Him. We're going to lean on Him. And
if He's going to wean us of this world, He's going to keep us
cleaving and believing no matter what else happens in this world.
And you count on that. And he put you in some pretty
bad situations to bring you to that place. And then look what
he says here. He has destroyed me on every
side. He's saying God did this to me. And I'm gone. You know they have
this book. And of course that thing comes
out every once in a while and they resell it. When bad things
happen to good people. When bad things happen to good
people. And that means that you don't deserve what's happening
to you. That's what they mean by that statement. But he said,
he has destroyed me on every side and I'm gone and my hope
hath he removed like a tree. And on he goes down here and
he starts in verse 13 and look what he says now. He's even put
my brethren far from me and my acquaintance are very strange
for me. Even my kinfolks don't want to have nothing to do with
me. People that know me, people that are supposed to love me,
my brother and my kinfolks, and my kinfolks have failed me and
my familiar friends have forgotten me. Oh, Job's in trouble. He's in darkness here and everything
and things seem to be against him and they just forget it.
Well, he, you know, I can't do nothing. And they that dwell
in my house and my maids count me for a stranger. I'm an alien.
I'm a stranger. I'm like somebody from a foreign
country in their sight. I called my servant, come to
do something for me. And he didn't even answer me.
And he said in verse 17, My breath is strange to my wife. My wife
won't even have anything to do with me now. And I am treated
her for the children's sake of mine own body. Young children
despise me. I rose and they spake against
me. All my inward friends abhorred me, and they loved me, turned
against me. And then he comes down and he says in verse 21,
Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends. For
the hand of God hath touched me. And then he says, Oh, that
my words were now written in a book. Well, here it is. He had no idea. He said, when
he said that, he had no idea that God would put it in his
book. He said, Oh, that my words were
now written in a book. And we're reading them. And this
is millennial ago. And then he says this, that they
were graven with an iron pit and lead in a rock. He said,
I want this put on my tombstone. He said, this is what I want
to put on my tombstone. Put it in lead. Lead is scratched
in a rock. I want this as lead in a rock. I've already got my tombstone
up and I've got my name on it. I've got my birth date on it.
And when I die in this world, somebody's going to come out.
I took a fellow here recently to another graveyard. He couldn't
find it because he had somebody that died and he had to go put
the death date on it. And that's what somebody's going
to do to me one of these days. You know, they're going to scribe
in the rock. died such and such a day. I go look at it. And it don't
bother me to see my name on a tombstone. And oh, here's what he said.
He said, take my tombstone and this is what I want on it. And you know what he said? Now
here's his confession of faith. Look what he says now. Oh my. He said, I know that my Redeemer
liveth, and He'll stand upon the earth in the latter day.
Verse 23, He said, I know that my Redeemer liveth. You know,
He didn't say, I know that He has lived. I know that He's going
to live. But He said, I know He lives
right now. That my Redeemer liveth right
now. Now He They say, you know, here's
a man in all this strength that he's in, this trouble that he's
in, and our Lord Jesus Christ hadn't come yet. Hadn't lived
yet. Hadn't died yet. And he says,
I know that my Redeemer liveth. The one who's going to pay for
my sin. The one who's going to stand
for me before God. The one who's going to shed his
blood. The one who's going to face God
for me. The one who's going to bear my
sin in his own body on the tree. And what you read this morning,
Aaron? Oh, that's so good. Huh? That this priest, this priest,
this high priest don't need to change it because he ever liveth
to make intercession. And all that come to God by him,
he's able to save unto the uttermost. And I tell you what, he was looking
way out yonder. He was looking and says, my redeemer
lives. The one who's going to pay for
my sin. The one who's going to face my
sin. And I tell you what, that's what
I, you know, I didn't know this until I learned the gospel. But
my sin was paid for 2,000 years ago, and as far as God was concerned,
it was paid for in eternity before anybody was ever put on this
earth. Eternally justified in the sight of God by the blood
of Christ as He stood as the Lamb slain from the foundation
of the world. And what old Job was saying,
say what you want to to me, reproach me all you want to, Say all you do what you will
to me, my Redeemer lives. And that's all that matters to
me, my Redeemer lives. And one of these days, He's going
to stand and He'll vindicate me when I stand before Him and
all you miserable comforters. And you find over in Job, the
last part of Job, it says there that God says, I'm going to have
my servant Job pray for you fellas. Job had to pray for these men.
And oh, he knew what it took to sacrifice to put away sin.
Look in Job chapter 1 a minute. He knew what it took to put away
sin. He knew what it took to face God for sin. And I say,
my Redeemer liveth. Look what he said in verse 5. And it was so, when the days
of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified
them and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings
according to the number of them all. For Job said, It may be
that my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts. Thus
Job did continually. He said, Ah, my children, I've
got to offer sacrifice for my children. So he knew what it
was to have a sacrifice. And look what else he said here
in verse 23 of Job 19. Or 25, excuse me, 25. He says,
so I know that my Redeemer liveth. And look what he says. I know. I know. I don't know what you
know, but I know what I know. That's what Job's saying here.
I know. Now you're talking about some
assurance. This man had some assurance. You know John, 1st
John, it says, and we know, we know, we know. How many times
does it say in the 1st John? We know, we know, we know. And
here Job said, I know. This is something I know. And though all his earthly friends
had forsaken him, he knew this, that his Redeemer lived and he
would never forsake him. His kinsmen in heaven, would
always be good to him and always be faithful to him. He had a
kinsman in glory. He had somebody to answer for
him, somebody to meet God for him. And he knew, my wife, my
brethren, my kinsmen, my children are gone. But he said, I know,
this I know, my Redeemer living. Now there's some things Job didn't
know. Some things Job didn't know. He didn't know the reason
of his great trial. He did not have a reason. He
did not know why God took the crown off his head. He didn't
know why God's hand reached out and touched him. He didn't know
why that happened. He didn't know why that the bones
cleaved to his skin. He didn't know. But he said,
I know my Redeemer lives. He didn't know what took place
between God and Satan. He didn't know that when Satan
came, when the sons of God presented themselves, he didn't know that
Satan come among them. And God said, what are you doing
here? He said, I'm going to and fro. And he said, well, have
you considered my servant Job over here, a perfect man, an
upright man that eschews evil. He didn't know that conversation
that God and Satan had. He didn't know that Satan was
fixing to be turned loose on him and all the hellhounds of
hell would be turned loose on him. He didn't know why he had
been stripped completely of all earthly comforts. He didn't know
why he sat on a heap one day with potsherds scraping the balls
off of his skin and mutilating his flesh to try to get some
comfort. Going from sitting in the gate
and everybody said, hey Job, hey Job, hey Job, now he's over
here sitting, scraping himself with a pot shirt. He didn't know
why that had happened. He didn't know why he lost his
health. He didn't know how he lost all
of his ten children all in the same day. He didn't know why
that happened to him. He didn't know why he lost all
of his wealth. The wealthiest man in the East
is what is said about him. He didn't know why he left all
of his wealth. And he certainly did not know
why God sent him such three miserable comforters. But you know what he knew? I know my Redeemer liveth. Oh, listen. He lives to make
it all work out for His good. For His good. And I know that
and some of you know that by experience. I mean God can put
us in some of the darkest, dreadest, jealous places between a rock
and a hard place as they say. But one thing we know, our Redeemer
lives. He couldn't talk about his brethren.
He couldn't say, my brethren. He couldn't talk about his kin,
folks. He couldn't talk about his servants that all forsaken
him. But he could say, my Redeemer lives. My Redeemer. And keep
this, and look in Psalm 73. Here's a comforting verse for
me. And it would be for Job if, in
Psalm 73, verse 25, look what he says. You know, it's my Redeemer liveth. I know. I don't know about my
wife anymore. I don't know about my kin, folks.
I don't know about my servants, but I know my Redeemer. And He
said here in Psalm 73 in verse 25, Whom have I in heaven but
thee? Whom have I in heaven? You know,
everybody here has got somebody that they love, that God's called
them home. But you don't want to go to heaven
to see them. You know why you want to go? To see the Lord Jesus
Christ. That's why you want to go. That's the only reason to go.
Is to go see Him. And look what He said. Whom have
I in heaven but Thee? And there's none on earth that
I desire beside Thee. Now listen to it. My flesh and
my heart fails, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion
forever. And let me show you another one.
Lamentations 3. Lamentations 3. This is, this
is Lamentations 3 in verse 21. You know, I know my Redeemer. Oh, the joy. Oh, the joy and
peace of knowing God. Oh, the joy of trusting God. The joy of having no confidence
in the flesh. The joy of knowing that in us
dwells no good thing, but knowing that our Redeemer lives. And when we leave here, we're
going to leave all these earthly ties behind anyway. And one of
the joys of knowing God is knowing that God knows me. Knows me. And look what he said here in
verse 21. Oh, he had had to, here's old
Jeremiah lamenting. And he said, This I recall to
my mind, therefore have I hope. I remember some things when things
are not going so well. It is of the Lord's mercies that
we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning, and
great is thy faithfulness. Got up this morning, you had
brand new mercies. Get up tomorrow, you'll have
new mercies. And the Lord is my portion, O
saith my soul, therefore will I hope in Him. The Lord is good
unto them that wait for Him. The soul that stands still and
waits on the Lord. And Job said in another place,
Job 23, you look at it yourself. He says, The Lord knows the way
that I take, and when he hath tried me, I shall come forth
as gold. Gold. And then look back over
again here in verse 25. I know my Redeemer liveth. And look what else he says. And
I know that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth.
What a confession of faith. Huh? We're standing here in the
worst condition anybody, they talk about how Job suffered and
nobody suffered like him other than our Lord Jesus Christ and
here he is talking about I know my Redeemer lives. And then He
says, And I know this, that he shall stand at the latter day
upon the earth. He saw our Lord Jesus Christ
coming. He saw the coming of Christ.
He saw that Christ must come. He saw that Christ would come
into this world, His Redeemer. He saw Him coming in glory. He
saw Him coming in power. And though He come in glory and
He came in power, because of His flesh, His glory was veiled
in that flesh. And the only way you could see
that glory that was in our Lord Jesus Christ, for God to take
away and let you see past that body, let you see past that man. And that's why He said, who do
men say that I am? Oh, you're John the Baptist.
Nobody. You thunder out the truth. Oh,
you're Jeremiah because you're a man of grief and sorrow. You're
Elijah. He said, but who do you say I
am? Thou art the Christ. You're the son of the living
God. And oh, God, that's why he says, you know, he was a root
out of dry ground. There was no beauty. There was
no glory about him that we should desire him. When they looked
at him, that's why we said we saw his mother, we know his father,
we know his brethren, we know his sisters. How say he then
that he came down from heaven? And our Lord Jesus made him so
no reputation and he emptied himself, vested himself of his
glory. And bless his holy name. There
were some, there were some that saw Him to be who He was. There
were some on this earth, and there are some on this earth
today, that though we see not now, yet we rejoice in Him with
joy unspeakable. I tell you, I see Him in His
glory, I see Him in His power, I see Him in His majesty, I see
Him in His sovereignty, I see Him in His right to do with us
as He will. And that's why Job said, God
put me in this place. The Lord took the crown off my
head, and you think I'm going to find fault with God? He's
my Redeemer. He's the one who's going to wash
me from my sins in His own blood. Jesus paid it all. All to Him
I owe. And oh, listen. He came down
to this earth to, first and foremost, first and foremost, do something
to honor His Father, and glorify His Father, and please His Father,
and satisfy His Father. He had to do something for God,
and God had to do something for Himself before He could do anything
for us. And He first came down here to do the Father's will. And this is the, you know what
the Father's will is? This is the will of Him that
sent me. That all that the Father giveth
me shall come to me. And Him that cometh to me, I
will, no matter what happens, no matter what somebody says
or does, I'll never cast them out. And that I should keep them
and raise them up at the last day. And listen, He came. He came
and he said, I've got an hour. I've got an hour I've come to
meet. I've got a place I've got to go. I've got a death I've
got to die. I've got some suffering I must
do. I've got a cup that I've got
to drink. I've got sin that I must bear. I've got a father that I must
satisfy. I've got some tears that's got
to be shed. And I've got to do it all without
any murmuring. I've got to do it all without
any complaining. I've got to do it all with peace. I've got to do it all with absolute
perfect submission. I've got to do it all so my God
and my Father will get all the glory in my life and in my death
and in my burial and in my resurrection. And oh, beloved, And he said,
I came in here not to be served, not to be ministered unto, but
to give my life a ransom for many. And, oh, he was that seed
of the woman who bruised the serpent's head. And old Job said,
I know he's going to stand at the earth on the latter days. And, oh, listen. And he also,
and I think he also meant this. that our Lord Jesus Christ is
yet to come and stand upon the earth. And I believe that he
said, and Job means that every eye that, he said even those
that pierced him are going to see him. Every knee, every knee
that's ever lived on this earth is going to bow a knee and confess
that Jesus Christ is Lord. Oh, I look forward to that day.
I look forward to that day. I'll tell you something. Here's
a fella that bows a knee right here, and I don't care if I was
in the presence of a king, I don't care if I was in the presence
of the President or the Congress of the United States of America,
I bow my knee, I bow my heart, I bow my will, I bow my mind,
I bow everything about me to the Lord Jesus Christ. And you'll say, I'm not, I owe
gladly to bow to Him. And one of these days, And everybody
who won't do it, he's going to put his hand on them. Yeah, you
are. Yes, you are. Oh, I hate to do
that. Yeah, but you're going to do
it. Who is he? He's the Lord. Who gets all the glory? He does. And oh my. And then everybody's
going to know he's king of kings. looking for that blessed hope,
glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ,
who loved us and gave himself for us. And look what else he
says here. I don't... I don't have a watch. I don't
know what time I started. But look what else he says here
now. In verse 26. Oh, listen, what a blessed hope
this man had. What a confession of faith. And
though after my skin worms destroy this body, though after skin worms destroy
this body, and in the margin it says, after I shall awake,
though this body be destroyed, yet out of my flesh shall I see
God. He saw the Redeemer, said after
I die, and after I rot away, and I become dust, And I become
to a nobody knows where I'm at, where I lived, where I died.
Nobody knows a clue where I'm at. They won't even, he says,
this flesh, he says, this flesh is going to the ground. This
flesh is going to rot away. This flesh is going back to dust.
But yet I'm going to stand in my flesh and see God. Oh, listen. It's the flesh that
veils us from seeing God as we would love to. It's the flesh
that keeps us from worshiping God the way we would love to.
And all one of these days, bless His name, this old veil, this
old flesh will just fade away. Look what our Lord said in Luke
24. I love this subject. I love this subject. Luke 24.
I love this subject of of this flash. Do you know just
less about five miles from where I live now, ten miles in one
particular place, it lacked one vote being the state capital
of Tennessee. And there's not a soul lives
there now. There used to be a big meeting
house there and they'd have pie suppers. and they'd hold revivals
and they'd last a month at a time and people would walk across
in and out of them hills. They was down there coal mining
and cutting timber. And they had a railroad through
there. Ain't no railroad anymore. Houses was everywhere. Meeting
places where people go meet. And there's not evidence that
anybody was ever there. And my father-in-law's 92 years
old, he can take you and say, that's where the building stood.
That's where my mother lived. And there's where this was. And
there's where that was. And I remember this fella. And
I remember paying this much for a pie. Because you know they'd
make pies and that's how they made money. A woman would make
a pie and they'd go to a pie supper and somebody, especially
if it wasn't married, you know, and a fellow wanted to date a
woman or had some affection toward a woman, I'll bet a dollar on
that pie. I'm going to give a dollar and
a quarter. A dollar and a half. And I mean your dollar as big
as a wagon wheel back in those days, but I'll tell you. But
that's what they're doing and that's what Joe was saying here.
He said, I'm going back to the dirt. Now, there's people over
there buried. There's men all over the world,
people that died in the sea, and believers that wept in the
sea. There's people all over this
world, known world, able! His blood cried out to God. But
God knows where every single one of His people is. And not
only His, but even the wicked. And one of these days, that dust
that's there, God knows exactly where it's at, and He's going
to call it forth, and Job is going to come out of that ground.
And oh, he's going to come up out of that ground, and he said,
I'm going to see God for myself. Look what our Lord said here
in Luke 24, in verse 36. And all those fellas are talking.
They're in there talking about this walk they had with this
man. Knew that it was the Lord. Now
they run back to tell everybody. But they were terrified. Jesus
stood in the midst of them and said to them, Peace be unto you.
They were terrified. Scared totally to death. Shaking. Scared. Terrified. Suppose that
they had seen a spirit. And he said to them, Why are
you troubled? Why these thoughts arise in your
heart? Why are you scared? He said,
Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Now listen.
Handle me and see, for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as
you see me have. And watch what he said. And he
thus spoke. He showed him his hands and his feet. You want
to know it's me? Here's the evidence. You see
where they nailed me to the cross? And oh, look at this in 1 Corinthians
15. Oh, you're talking about a blessing,
talking about comforting, talking about encouraging. This is for
me. And I went over and visited George
Brown yesterday. Carter said, what's eternity
going to be like? What's eternity going to be like?
I said, it's going to be good. for believers, it's going to
be real good. But look what he said here in 1 Corinthians 15. Now this I say, brethren, we're
talking about flesh now. Job said, I'm going to see God
for myself. I'm going to see him in the flesh
for myself. I'm going to go to the dust.
I'm going to rot and I'm going to corrupt. But I'm not going
to stay dead. I'm going to have a body, is
what he's saying. Now this I say, brethren, that
flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God. Why can't
flesh and blood do it? Because we have got sin in this
blood, and anything with sin in it can't enter in that place
right up there. No, but nothing with sin, nothing unclean. And
Lincoln goes on to say, neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Oh, this old body corrupt, it
can't have incorruption. And I'll show you a mystery.
We're not all going to sleep. We're not all going to rest in
the grave. We're not all going to be like we just come to a
sleep, but we shall all be changed. Listen to this. In a moment,
in the twinkling of an eye, quicker than you snap your fingers, at
the last trumpet, can you imagine what it's like when God blows
that trumpet? It says that the Lord Jesus Christ would descend
from heaven with a trumpet. And oh, for the trumpet shall sound,
and listen to this, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible.
Old Job, that's what he's saying, said, I'm going to be raised
out of that grave. As the skin worms desire my body, I'm going
to stand up incorruptible. I'm going to stand up, be raised
up, and I'm going to be incorruptible, and I'm being changed. For this
corruptible, this skin worms, this rotten body must put on
incorruption, and this mortal dying man must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall
have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on
immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written,
death. is swallowed up in victory. Oh,
death, where is thy sting? Oh, grave, where is thy victory?
Oh, my, to be absent from the body is to be present with the
Lord. And I tell you, do you ever get homesick? Anybody
here ever get homesick? Do you ever just get so heavy
hearted sometimes you get kind of homesick and say, well, Lord,
you know, it'd be all right if we, you know, if you just go
ahead and take me home. I tell you what, if only people
get homesick, people's got a home. You ain't got a home. You certainly
can't ever get more to go. I get, I get, you know, I look
forward to meeting Christ. I look forward to it. I, I see him by faith now, that
one of these days, faith will be sight. Faith will be sight. And then look back over here
in verse 27. Again. He said, Oh, after skin
were destroyed this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God.
And listen to this, whom I shall see for myself. And my eyes shall behold, And
not another. I won't see a stranger. I won't
see a stranger. You know, our Lord said a stranger
they will not follow. My sheep heard my voice and he
said, I'm not going to see a stranger. I'm not going to see a stranger.
I'm not going to be strange to him. And he's not going to be
strange to me. And look what he says, who I
shall see for myself. And then he says there, and he
says, and oh, though my reins be consumed within me. And the
margin says, my reins within me are consumed with earnest
desire. I earnestly desire to see my
God, my Redeemer, my Savior. And oh, listen, he said, whom
I shall see for myself. My eye shall behold and not another.
I won't be a stranger to him and he won't be a stranger to
me. And I desire that. Paul said, for me to die is gain. I know he's saying everything
is a mystery to me now. Life is full of contradictions
for Job as God deals with him. Life's contradiction. Everything
seems to be against him, but he says this, When I see him,
I won't see a stranger. I will not see a stranger. You
know who I'm going to see? I'm going to see God. I'm going
to see my Redeemer. That's who I'm going to see.
Uh-huh. And that's why the apostle meant
we see through a glass darkly. You know, if I try to look through
that glass of water, I can just barely, you know, if I look through
it, I can't see nothing. And sometimes that's what we
do. We look through a glass darkly. But, oh, then we're going to
see face to face, face to face with Christ my Savior, face to
face, I shall see. Uh-huh. No wonder David said,
I ain't gonna be satisfied, ain't no way I can be satisfied until
I wake in thy likeness. Whatever else happens, as long
as we live on this earth, whatever else happens here, as long as
we know our Redeemer lives, everything, Everything, everything will be
all right. Ain't that right? Well, Scott
Richardson used to say all the time, he said, I ain't had no
bad news since I had the good news. And that's the way I feel. I
ain't had no bad news since I had the good news. Our Savior, oh, our gracious,
eternal God in heaven, How blessed, how wondrous, how glorious. Oh, praise be unto your holy
name. Oh, we stand and behold you by faith now. We rejoice
in you now. Our sins already, the redeemer,
he was looking to come, has already come. All the sins of all your
people for all time was put away. put away by the sacrifice of
yourself. God bless this gospel. Thank
you for it. And Lord, may this be our confession
of faith. May we confess that we shall
someday see our God for ourselves in that flesh, that new body. God bless these dear saints.
Meet the needs. and meet with us tonight to your
glory and our good, for Christ's sake. Amen. Amen. See you all this evening. Lord
will it.
