For all flesh is a stretch, and all the glorious man of the foul dress.
The best brother from the Plaza of Falls away.
But the words of ours endure forever, and this is the word which by the Gospel is preached unto you.
In the 10th of John.
We find the Lord as the Good Shepherd.
And we read that he entered in by the door.
And so entering.
He qualified as the shepherd of his sheep, so to speak.
And then?
Then the Porter opened up, and she heared his voice, and he thought of his own sheep by name, and leaded them out.
And when he sort of caught his own cheek, he goes before them. And she followed him for the newest voice.
No, my name is. Did not follow him.
But there were those who responded to his voice.
And followed him.
Now in the clothes of that gospel.
Chapter 21.
Which seems to be united chapter of the other gospel so bad. And it's been like this.
He restores his cherub.
Leader, who had.
And he committed to kill him the responsibility.
00:15:03
Of feeding his sheep.
1St 15.
In the end of the verse.
We give them the responsibility of feeding his land.
Verse 16 and the end of the verse Feed my sheep.
And that is still repeated in verse 17.
Now they drove deeper into this servant's heart, and the restorative publicly among his brethren.
And the second time, he said, Steve might be.
Perhaps that I might indicate that sheep are more difficult to see than lands.
But in this epistle.
We have a lot of fossil.
Writing to.
Those of the circumstances who believed.
Were elected according to the foreknowledge of God.
And who had believed?
And I become Christians.
He writes to them.
And he seeks to encourage them.
And their brains of their attention, that much better portion.
Father heavenly character.
Was a more suitable for them?
And went to very far beyond any blessing that they could have realized as a nation.
Coming into earthly favorites.
Under the kingship of their Messiah.
So he wasn't just that. Here we have one way in which he fed the sheep.
The first official and also in his second.
Of course he did that orally 2.
I see one of the various places.
Later for the Lord.
And brought the ministry.
The Lord had given him to the attention of that particular people.
But when at Gentiles never failed to enjoy this Doctor Abbott.
Because in principle is true lust.
Peter was definitely apostle to the circumcision, as all was to the common circumstances.
In Galatians 2 we did a statement for that effect.
Verse 7.
But to control your wise.
When I saw that the gospel of the young circumcision was committed unto me.
That the gospel of the circumcision was under here.
For He then lost to scratch your land to hear him. The apostleship of the circumstance was might in me for the Gentiles.
But it was Peter, you know that.
Went to the House of Corning. Yes, and open the door of blasting.
00:20:07
Right away after.
Blessing on me.
Centurion, 40 years.
The gospel seemed to spread.
Rapidly.
To the Gentiles.
You can gather that from the 10th and 11Th chapters of Acts.
I was thinking of the 5th chapter of First Peter. He was speaking.
They're saying.
Much impressed with the Commission given to them, didn't they?
The 5th chapter of First Peter.
Speaking to the elders and elders which are among you, I exhort, who am also an elder.
And a witness of the sufferings of Christ.
And also may partaker of the glory that shall be revealed.
He didn't say he was a partaker of the Suffering City.
Then the second verse feed the flock of fog which is among you.
Well then, Gentiles are part of that clock of Lord, aren't they?
And then the second epistle.
The first chapter.
The 12Th verse. Wherefore I will not be negligent, to which you always in remembrance of these things, though you know them, and be established in the present group.
Yeah, I think it's me, as long as I am in this Tabernacle to stir you up by putting you in remembrance.
When they first verse you could speak to the apostle Paul did.
Address.
These strangers scattered and these portions of Azure Milo.
As an apostle of Jesus Christ.
It's nice to see that.
He was useful quite so after his favorite.
In Luke 22.
The Lord knew that He was.
About to play, you told him so.
00:25:06
And verse 31.
And the Lord, said Simon.
Found it. Seems to be rather entitled.
It's his name.
Regarding to.
First into this world is natural energy.
The old Satan hath desire to have you, that he may sit to his wings.
I was there to, but I have prayed for thee.
The thy faith failed not.
When thou art converge to all the stores.
Strengthen thy brethren.
That we see being fulfilled within this very man.
Good afternoon. I have that in you, the Lord.
I pray for thee. That's priesthood.
Not that he wouldn't fail because he needed the lesson that he would learn in that figure.
But he prayed that his faith wasn't saved.
And he says further, when thou art from Ferguson.
That would bring him the advocacy of Christ.
And.
Being restored.
He would be abused to the president.
The loudest. George strengthened my breath.
That's what he does and needs Effective.
And Miss Jacqueline.
As an apostle of Jesus Christ, he didn't lose his apostles.
The law never changes his mind about his purposes concerning us.
Well, this is addressed to these strangers.
Carried throughout.
Father Galatians got negotiated Asian and things.
They were dispersed.
These different flavors.
Oh, I've never been in these places.
You read it at 16 that he wished to go over to his opinion and start suffering not.
Also we find.
Along the circumcision, the worry of the Lords in these places.
Under pressure, no doubt they were dispersed.
They come under the rough hand of others and of the old practice.
And they were strangers and these businesses.
That becomes so when we believe the gospel.
For their blessing had come through the gospel.
And the word of the Lord, we can do it forever.
And this is the word which, for the gospel is preached unto you, is the last verse of the church.
00:30:13
These were elected going to the foreknowledge of Roger's father.
As a people, they were.
And electronic nation on the earth.
The publishers.
Quite a bit deeper isn't?
Electric coins and the full knowledge of God the Father.
They come into the blessings of Christianity.
The new wine and the new bar.
You know that? No?
God was known as Jehovah.
Will you happy to write to them?
The sweet language relationship to grow this fall.
I later see the spirit of adoption whereby we cry of the Father.
The Lord could use that.
In his own right.
Before redemption was accomplished.
In March Gospel.
He gives utterance to that expression. Have a phone?
The whole is very fun.
Alright, for the Romans.
They enjoyed it.
Have a father, He wrote. The same religion.
And applies to all.
Election year is only the sight of gods and sovereignty.
In my contrast to this was what we have in the second official.
Worst fear?
Where will the rather brethren give dividends to make your calling and election sure?
Well, if you do these things, you shall never call my stomach.
Here we have mentioned the election on the side of the responsibility.
Do we see a progress here in these verses?
They were exhorted to.
Supply in our face.
Verse 5.
Virtue and knowledge difference.
Patience, government, brotherly kindness.
His daughter's eyes brotherly kindness to brotherly kindness, charity and so on.
I forgot.
These things to be in you and the farms they make you that you chose, neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
00:35:00
But then we get the contrast. He's a lack of these things, is flying, cannot see it for all.
Forgotten that he was purged from his old sin.
Many times we are told upon you.
That's often to be easier than others.
Take the case of an old Christian.
Dear old godly soul that has been faithful to all years.
Stumbled in an alert come short in some way, but he's gone on with the Lord.
And he's supplied in this place. These are various things indicated here.
When he comes to the close of the journey as an abundant interest.
Well, there's no doubt, you know.
Easy to handle the service on such as the case.
On the other hand, take that of someone with it.
Made a nice confession of the Lord.
He began well, but.
He didn't go off. I'll show you one. Well, the old brother's name is calling in a lecture camp.
He knew it and everyone asked me.
No, thank you.
And going on with the Lord.
Confidence will increase.
Lord, yours will have.
And our lives will have certainty to you.
A double minded man is unstable in old ways.
These were elected according to the four hours ago of the father.
Through sanctification of the clerk.
Joseph and Joseph of Hermaphill was sanctified by the Spirit.
Nicodemus was saying they learned by the Spirit.
Laws that believe in Jesus Christ.
My name is the Son of God.
I'm saying the volumes of the Spirit.
Was the ground of it.
Is the blood. The math is supplied right along in the verse.
Andrew.
Close it. Utter their prior adoption.
No, they couldn't do it before with cross working Christ not on record that they did.
That came afterwards.
And the work of redemption I have been accomplished with the frost.
And all this thorough that come in consequence of that to the perfect work and you.
The essential and glorification of Christ he sought. Later all this earth came down.
What was after that we get into the sweetness of that crime adoption.
Electrical into the four knowledge of God the Father.
Through sanctification of the Spirit.
That's why we believe.
00:40:06
Brought to a response.
That's according to the 400 withdrawal of the Father through sanctification of the spurred out to obedience.
Printing of the blood of Jesus Christ.
Where are you from?
I hope it doesn't seem like that.
Law of Moses are in the songs or in the promises.
What is your thought about the cramping of the blood?
That's the same as we have.
10th chapter of Hebrews and the 22nd verse.
Let us draw near with a true heart and full assurance of faith.
Our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience.
The bodies washed with pure water. That's the amethyst word, isn't it?
The application to our hearts by faith. Love of Christ.
Yes, I thought I was in that way. I knew it did so in the gospel, preaching the gospel and the meeting connected it with the sprinkling of the blood on the side. So.
The application.
The Lord in the basement didn't protect him from the destroying him through the.
I believe I know that gathering on the setting apart here on two obedience first thing that's mentioned.
Obedience is a precious thing in the sight of God, isn't it? Yes.
Did you find it on the part of those Pharisees?
And resistance.
Knowledge, perfection, and the person of Christ, don't we?
I do always those things that please people.
There is shine all perfection.
And all that through grace. And it is the work of God that has wrought in our hearts.
00:45:01
You have by faith. As it works, you think of the blood.
And Congress now to walk in that path of obedience in the power of the Holy Spirit.
14th of John in connection.
Next we have that.
14.
I believe the 22nd 1St Judicieth unto heaven of Australia.
Lord, how is it that thou will manifest Thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
These are my students fed unto him. You command lovely. He will keep my words.
Obedience and the truth of love.
And my father will love him, and we will come unto him and make our abode with you.
And we have never yet seen a disobedient child. Never.
But we were one time I was thinking of Ephesians two. We were one time children of disobedience.
But now the others should characterize.
The season 2 where in the time past you walked according to the course of the world, according to the Prince of the power of the year that is your subject to him.
The spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience.
Characterizes.
Now let's see.
Spirit of God, come in on the process, exercise the soul and give us the seeds, the work of Christ.
Put our faith and trust in Him. We should now what should characterize the children of obedience.
Obedience and dependence sometimes.
We're put to a test perhaps.
And we feel that we should obey. And then the thought comes, well, now if I do, what's going to be the consequence of this?
Well, I'm sure we that's all that proven.
Greater, less agreed, if we backed their obedience to the Word of God.
God to the Lord, He will take care of the consequences.
And then to honor me, I will honor still through it.
What you said earlier.
This obedient child is never happy.
So the obedient child should not be unhappy. The obedient child is one who is happy, walking in the fear of the Lord please him.
All the inward state of the that individual is happiness.
Clear conscience is worth a great deal and enough, and our family will walk before the Lord.
Your lesson in the third verse of Gemini.
That was something of the meaning of that.
00:50:01
Wasn't a bird and then you should have.
Perhaps you have a fur song? Probably.
Yeah, I said that's main topic we find us so frequently off in the songs. I think especially doesn't have to the sense of praise the unto God blessing the.
Finding the Writings of.
Servants of God and Mr. Darby and others. So often they use the expression of philosophy. Father.
And I the impression in my mind is that it's highly extensive praise, striking praise and worship.
God's mercy is abundant, isn't it? Oh Mr. Martin, my Bible reads so much. It's much mercy of abundant mercy.
And the hope that was given to the new Saints.
Our hearts likewise by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Our hope is a very precious thing, isn't it, When hope is long and despair stepped in?
I.
Why we there is living? Isn't it a living for me?
You say that from the two on the way to a man's don't we as he walked along and they they were sad we had hoped and that then he which would.
Restore Israel Their their hopes were gone.
But it is precious to see there that they were expressing their unbelievable to one who who had restored everything and could restore all to their soul.
Did not know it at the moment, but they were coming to the one who knew them and knew them on the way that way and met them and.
Does restore their soul?
Quite often with a Saint of God, he might get into that kind of a condition, but there's a man in the glory who understands and knows, and he's always searching that individual, isn't it? Yeah.
Brought me forward to scripture, got rather read.
Raise high pressure, Advocate for.
If Christ be not risen to you all you have to understand.
The Apostle Paul.
Close everything in connection with the old order of things. Everything was death and death.
All the different creatures were put into death and that, but everything pertaining to the.
Christian now, as a result of the work of Christ on Calvary's cross, everything is alive. It's living, so it's a living hope.
A new life at the living thing.
There's nothing pertaining to death there that pertains to the old, not the new.
Peter speaks of living stones too, Doesn't, Yes.
00:55:33
Thomas, Dr. Up doesn't it by the resurrect her deepest crying that showed she's a thought of life.
And we started by confidence.
The disciples didn't understand.
Necessity.
Note 18 shows that.
Bill Gates verse 31 when 2012 and said unto them.
They only go up to Jerusalem.
And all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of Man through the accomplished.
Brain shall be delivered under the jigsaw.
A charging mob.
And spitefully.
And stood on.
And they shall scourge him, and put him to death.
On the third day he shall rise again.
And they understood none of these things.
And this thing was hid from them.
Neither knew they were friends which were spoken.
The two Honors said didn't understand.
They've been referred to.
In the transfiguration.
The.
See that?
Moses and alliance for intelligent after the necessity of the death of Christ. They were talking about his deceased, which he should accomplish on your.
The disciples were still.
In the expectation of birth midlasting.
The salvation of the expected love that they would be saved from their hands and brought into Commons.
Palmyra.
As a specially favored people.
Of this.
Oh, that is.
Stated here.
Goes far beyond that.
Connect with the work of redemption and.
Of course, the truth of the resurrection, which is the cardinal truth of the gospel, we might say.
So I lost the.
Soil, apparently for a three or two day blessed week.
God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Which, according to His abundant mercy, had begotten us again, after a living hope, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
01:00:17
That's the special truth, that direction from the head.
The disciples didn't understand that.
Right concern about this statement.
You want to tell anyone of you Son of man was risen from the dead?
Resurrection as a general thing, as a distant thing with Orthodox family believe that look forward to it, but still earthly blessing was promised in their thoughts.
We like her, isn't much in those labs.
Later in the chapter we come down to the end of phase, the salvation of your soul.
All that's where the real blessing lies with me.
Seeing the soul.
That connects with a risen Christ.
Sometimes we're disturbed, we're suppressed, we're disappointed by them to be.
But you know those things.
Favorable or unfavorable never affect what we have in Christ.
Speaking Peter on a day of Pentecost in the second chapter of Acts, addressing them there, it says.
Men of Israel.
Hear these words. Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you. He yourselves also know Him, being delivered by the determinant, council and foreknowledge of God.
We have taken them with wicked hands of crucified and flames.
Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death, because.
Because it was not possible that he should be whole enough.
They knew it on the Day of Pentecost and.
Spirit of God made these things clear and good for their souls.
To say two of them, but he couldn't tell them. Then afterward, they understood.
Think as well to remember Mother Javadan, as you were saying.
That our portion and price is sure none of the circumstances fear can affect.
The things that you're seeing are temporary.
That's why I.
It came to the last thing. There is no.
And we're blessed of all spiritual blessings and friends.
That's true even now, is it not?
And I thought of the of the preciousness and the certainty of what is brought before is in the Max first before 1St.
So an inheritance.
What they're going to have.
Incorruptible and undefiled.
And that state is not a way reserved in heaven for you.
While I found out of ourselves, of his father and his children.
01:05:01
Then the earthly inheritance does.
Interrupted and defiled and faded away. That all inheritance will never be suffered.
Many many a person has received the inheritance here around.
Through their own.
Wayward not now lost the entire inheritance.
God isn't going to allow that to happen to us.
God is deserved the inheritance in the deserving of us individually before him, before the inheritance, He's going to have us there in all of us. Not only is the inheritance reserved, but.
In heaven, for you who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation, we're being preserved for it of enough.
And I believe they express them through faith.
Instructed artists to see were not kept by God in the hand of His Father.
Apart from ourselves, but it was true faith. So it works like a spirit and gives through faith his his his mind, his thoughts and the by the Spirit our hearts are are connected with God in that way and we have it by his power, but it's in through faith.
Say them at.
Faith by faith we have accepted Christ as our faith, the gift of God, Season 2 but now in the pathway, it's in the exercise of faith before him that these things are blessed to our souls.
Think of that scripture in Hebrew 12Th chapter is Without faith, it is impossible to please him.
There isn't the least spiritual blessing that we have apart from faith.
For me that way cannot be accepted and enjoy.
Solemn for any fear this morning who don't know the Lord as their Savior isn't.
Without faith, it's impossible to please him.
Must they couldn't buy any endeavor of their own fastly, please God.
You're going to please God. You must come by the cross of Christ, accept him as you're saved. That's the only way in which God is pleased, and he's pleased in the work of his God.
And for our own hearts, how do how is it that we enjoy any measure of the preciousness of these truths that we're reading?
It's because we believe.
That's by faith. We believe what God has said.
Saying nothing.
They raise the future before us. Things go for.
The man was by faith that we have that evidence.
We find that.
So the Lord.
Under trial and pressure witnesses body but resources.
Joining with joy, unseasonable and full of glory, which comes from that a little later on. That makes good in my soul. Spice things.
Name is the substance of claims over the evidence of things not seen.
I don't know. And so for future. So we've got the evidence already.
All the Spirit makes, God makes it good to the soul.
Remember, a number of years ago I was visiting in a very, very large sanitarium in New York City.
01:10:02
And.
All those real depression amongst a number of guests in the institution and.
01 of the brothers said to me, he says wait a while, wait a while.
So we finally got along to a young lady there, and here she was in the very last stages of the disease, and you were just looking up and rejoicing. Your heart was full.
They're always just as you know, that blessed man has died for me, living for me. And one day very soon, I don't know whether it'll be today or tomorrow or the next day, but whatever, whatever day it pleases him, I'm going to be with him and I'm going to be like him. I'm going to enjoy his company.
She was enjoying it right then.
Yes, and you were saying the power of the Holy Spirit is so important that the Spirit be not breathe in our heart business because if he is, even though we're children of God and what we read here is true of us, we won't have the enjoyment of that before.
There is. We're not in communion. That's lost to our souls.
That's why it's so important if we.
Experience that which is hindering communion that we're going on with. We're inclined to go on with anything that will grieve the Holy Spirit given us. Regardless of the cause, the Lord will be our question.
200.
Hopefully there are long nights waiting to see the morning star rise. I'll ride all that. That would be 4th Sunshine sport. That's.
What we were.
We're walking along.
And faith by faith may have accepted Christ in our faith, the gift of God season 2, but now in the pathway, it's in the exercise of faith before Him that these things are blessed to our souls.
Think of that scripture in Hebrew. The 12Th chapter is Without faith, it is impossible to place him.
There isn't the least spiritual blessing.
That we've had apart from faith.
Only that way cannot be accepted and enjoy.
Storms running here this morning who don't know the Lord as their savior is He.
01:20:02
Without faith, impossible to please him.
Must they couldn't buy any endeavor of their own Fastly, please call.
You're going to please God. You must come by the cross of Christ, Accept Him as your faith. That's the only way in which God will please, and he's pleased in the work of his thoughts.
Time for our own hearts. How do how is it that we enjoy any measure of the preciousness of these truths that we're reading is because we believe.
It's by faith we believe what God has said.
Sufferable things. Hopeful.
The evidence of things not seen.
They bring the future before us, they told for.
The man was by faith that we have that evidence.
We find that.
Under trial and pressure witnesses body but rejoicing.
Joycelyn with joy, unseeable and full Glory with some bad little later on.
The substance of Angel for the evidence of things not seen.
I don't know and go for a future, so we've got the evidence already.
All the Spirit makes, God makes it good to the soul.
Number A number of years ago I was visiting in a very, very large sanitarium in New York City and.
All that was real depression amongst a number of guests in the institution and.
01 of the brothers said to me, wait a while, wait a while.
And we finally got along to a young lady there, and here she was.
In the very last stages of the disease and you were just looking up and rejoicing. Your heart was full.
Oh, she says, you know, that blessed man has died for me, living for me. And one day very soon, I don't know whether it will be today or tomorrow or the next day, but whatever, whatever day it pleases him, I'm going to be with him and I'm not. If you like him, I'm going to enjoy his coming.
She was enjoying it right there.
Yeah, and saying the power of the Holy Spirit is so important that the Spirit be not breathe in our heart, isn't it? Because if he is, even though we're children of God and what we leave here is true of us, we won't have the enjoyment of that before.
We're not in communion. That's lost to our souls. What?
That's why it's so important if we experience kind of that which is hindering communion that we're going on with and trying to go on with anything that will breathe the whole experience, give it up. Regardless of the cause. The Lord will be our quote.
I'm gone.
01:25:02

37 Morning night waiting to see the Morning Star.
That would be for the Sunshine Sport.
Computer.
01:30:10
Glory.
