Children—Wally Dear
DISCLAIMER: The following has been auto-transcribed. We hope it will help you to find the section of this audio file you are looking for.
I want to get started on the singing because.
I like to sing, and I know you boys and girls like to sing, right? OK, so we have this little hymn sheet in our hands and we're going to sing some songs off this hymn sheet. But you know what? If you have a song that's not on this hymn sheet.
And you want us to sing it, We might be able to sing it without the hymn sheet without looking. We just might be able to do that. So OK, what number would you like or which song would you like to sing?
#8 All right, let's start with #8.
And I'm gonna suggest that we sing the 1St and the last verse of the song or the hymn and that way we'll be able to sing more songs and more boys and girls will be able to give out songs. Sound like a good plan? OK, now if.
You really wanna sing another verse? You just let me know and we'll make arrangements for that, OK? But otherwise we're gonna sing first and last, OK #8?
See, I have a swell sky on. The drive is gone, and then it's glory of his, glory out. Come in, yell at the rest the same Saturday night.

00:05:03
When is he coming? Oh, by the way, who are we talking about here? When he cometh, who's the he? Do you know?
God. Can you tell me his name? Jesus. Yes, Jesus is God.
God the Son and He's coming back, but we just don't know when.
It could be today.
And he's coming to make up his jewels, so #47.

OK, down there, Burly.
Gypsy boy OK #44.
Again, the outpatient story is all right, so.
I can say of the children of men, nobody ever had something so.
If anything, we thought the last words of his friends, just as he answered the family of God is sent inside him, so ever said he.
Ensure that he sent him for me again. Salvation story received horizontal.
No one can set up the children of them. Nobody ever has told me before, Lord.
Yes.
Teammate would like #14 #14.

When the microwave drummers will your own speaking like you're right, flying in the flat out of the land where your soul be ready for a long time right and be washed in the blood of the land.
I want to drink the light in the soul. I think, what are the land and the land? I hear time and swastikas. Why? I mean that it's not snowing in that it's snowing. Are you lodged in the blood of the land?
Very good. Yes, Sam.
25 All right #25.
00:10:25
To become and the fatal light behind.
The time sitting in time.
Singing time while the voice of Jesus called to be in time.
If I can send you a long term way, you'll make fine so often. Get it and your pride is not too late the entire time.
And her key is still warranty coordinates like so far it's your heart you can show him it's that I don't know how to reach all otherwise it's big and time I need some darkness seems to be lightly frozen away that seems and pride come on I'm going to start from heaven to night vision.
Time.
And your pride becomes to play in time.
Yes.
Which one is it?
Oh, that's a good song. Yeah. I'm so glad that our Father in Heaven. Is that on the same sheet? I don't think it is, is it?
I think we can see that one though without looking right.
All right.
I am so glad that our Father in heaven comes after his father and my wife. He has given wonderful things that he found by teeth negative son care and sight. She is not loved me. I am so proud that he is unplugged me give us my speech. He is not spice me.
I am so glad that Jesus of me. Jesus loves me.
Jesus bless me. I am so glad that Jesus loves me. Jesus loves me.
You know, there's another song about the love of Jesus, the Savior's love, and it goes wide. Wide is the ocean. How many know this song? Oh.
Almost everybody knows it. Well, why don't we stand up and we'll stretch and you might want to turn sideways just a little bit so as not to harm your neighbor.
Why? Why does the old shine high as that happened to fall in different sights, even my favorite song.
I don't know where it is telling my child up his head.
On our hands, for our kids to believe that it is not great to see God breathe.
Very good. Nice to see you boys and girls stretch out on that song because there's nothing greater than the love of Jesus. It's so great and it just goes everywhere in the whole wide world.
It's so wonderful. Well, we have time for maybe one more song.
Uh, yes.
00:15:01
46.
I think that's going to be our last song off the hymn sheet for now #46 now we have a line here.
That says and he calls and he calls all the GIRLS.
How many of those do we have here, girls? How many?
OK, here's one another one. All right, Now listen, I'm going to ask you girls to sing that line all by yourself, all right?
You know what, maybe I'll just ask the girls that are sitting on the front rows that sing at all by yourself, OK?
Not right away, but when we get to that part, OK.
And then we're going to ask the boys to sing the next line where it says, and he wants all the Bo IS2. So I see boys and I see girls, and I'm not sure if one outnumbers the other, but that doesn't really matter. We're going to ask the boys to sing that line all by themselves, the ones on the front row. OK. And together we'll sing the rest of the song 46.
And he has died beyond King.
That day he has killed the last night to lands and beginning.
Boy, I almost need a hearing aid for that one. Maybe we should try it one more time. Girls, can you kind of raise the volume a little? And boys too. I think we can do better one more time.
Uh, TDP, I already got it. All right, it's me. Take your letter on my hands and she's lagging. He has two hands. Let's come to who has saved me dizzy.
Very good. That was much better.
So let's set these hymn sheets aside.
And we're going to take time to pray and ask the Lord for his help.
For the Sunday school.
Dear Father, in loving God, we thank Thee this morning.
For this wonderful opportunity to present to the boys and girls the love of Jesus.
And we thank thee, dear Father, that thou hast love.
The girls Douglas loved the boys and we are so glad that that was Tell us about thy love in the book that thou is given the Bible.
We thank you that my desire is that each one should be saved and know it and enjoy it. We thank Thee for that precious Savior, the Lord Jesus, who on the cross shed his blood to save us, to wash us from our sins. And we do earnestly pray that each and everyone here today might.
Go to Jesus for that cleansing power, that they might be washed whiter than the snow that we see outside this building, the beautiful snow. We ask this now as we commit this time to DC. Can I help not only here, but wherever Thy word is going forth. We pray for the salvation of souls. We ask all and give thanks.
My precious name, Lord Jesus, Amen.
Now, is there anybody here that wants to say a verse? We're not going to twist anybody's arm, but if you'd like to say a verse.
We'll ask you to say the first.
Be not rash with thy mouth, let not thine heart be hasty. Tutter anything before God, for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth. Therefore let thy words be few. Ecclesiastes five and two, Thank you.
Very nice.
00:20:18
And.
It's Tom the Shake.
In the save that which was lost. John. John 1411. Very good, thank you.
Anybody else?
I hope this little device isn't too scary.
I I I noticed the boys and girls, they seem to be quite taken with these microphones.
Ecclesiastes 5 and two, Be not rash with thine mouth.
Let not anything other before God.
And.
Let not thine heart be hasty for God not to utter anything before God. Wait.
Uh, for God is in the on the in heaven and on the earth that.
Upon the earth.
Therefore let thy words be few. Ecclesiastes five and two, thank you very good. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 316.
Oh.
OK, I'll tell you what, I'll be back.
Anybody else down here?
I can't know that one. Now you wanna see one good taste and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man you trust in him. Somebody for eight. Oh, that's good.
All right.
He kinda not a tender heart, forgiving and another Eden as God for God's sake for getting you.
John 316 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 316.
So 316 for God, so love the world that you gave is always forgotten. Should not pears have everlasting life? John 316 Good all right.
Yeah.
Dennis is one. There's one In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
Very good. Thanks.
Philippians 210 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow things in heaven, of things in earth, and of things under the earth. I think that's it.
Very good, alright.
Anybody else?
No.
I'm just wondering, uh.
The apostle Paul said I'm not ashamed of the God.
Gospel of Christ. And you said that, didn't you? Yeah, that was really good. Now is that found in Romans chapter one, verse 12 or is it 16?
I think I said 12, but I wanna make sure I had that right.
16 I got thinking after maybe it was 16.
Well now, boys and girls, today.
I'm so happy to see you here.
Sitting on your seats.
And I wonder.
If anybody has a problem.
You know, last night Mr. Sikora was talking to us and he said he had a burden.
And you know, that's what I like to talk about today. Burdens.
Uh, a burden could be a problem.
And.
00:25:02
I'm gonna disappear.
For a little bit and then I'm gonna show up again.
So your boys and girls just wait, OK? Because I will be back.
Uh, uh.
Oh.
Is this a burden?
Yeah.
Is a burden.
It's big.
And if this was full of bricks?
This would be very heavy.
But boys and girls?
This that is on my back represents.
Avold a burden?
And it is the burden of sin, the load of sin.
And somebody asked one time, how much does that load weigh? They wanted to know how much.
Does the burden of sin way and they said well.
I don't really feel any burden of sin.
And.
Man, that.
Was listening. You know what he said? He said the Bible tells us.
About those that are dead in their sins.
They're dead in trespasses and in sins. And if there was a dead man laying on the floor here and we put.
£500 on him, would he feel it?
Would he know that he has a burden?
Do you think you would feel it? No. Well what do we put 1000 lbs on it?
Would you feel the burden? The load? How about a ton?
No. Why?
Can somebody tell me why he wouldn't feel it? Yeah, you tell me he's dead. Exactly. A dead man will not feel a weight.
And so this man said to this fellow that indicated he.
Didn't feel the weight of sin, he said.
The Bible says you're dead in your sins. Is that a good way to be?
I hope that there's nobody here today that is dead.
In their sins before God, you don't have any life. Oh, it's true. You come to Sunday school.
And you can play ball and you can skate and play hockey and you might say, well, I'm full of life, but if you're in your sins, God sees you as dead.
Did and you know if we had a dead man here?
We wouldn't feel too comfortable probably.
And I know some boys and girls, they don't like to go to a place where there's dead people, you know, like to a Funeral Home.
So to be dead.
Is how we are before God in our sins, but you know.
God works and He gives us to feel the weight of sin.
And today I brought this.
Burden because I thought it would be good to feel what the weight of sin really is.
And.
How can I get rid of this burden of sin? Does anybody have any idea how I could do this?
What do you think?
That's very good. What were you going to say, Sam?
Very good. Now he said, ask Jesus to take it away, take away the burden. And Sam said, ask the Lord Jesus to wash away your sins.
What were you going to say?
00:30:02
Do you know how I can get rid of the burden of sin?
No, no, what do you think Burley? Get saved. OK, so we have 3 answers.
Which one is right?
Which one is right, Caleb? All three are right. That's very good.
So I I brought a.
You see this, uh.
What I brought with me today.
Just across. See.
And did you know that on the cross the Lord Jesus took my birth of sin, and yours too? If you trust Him, He was willing to take the vote.
And he bore the punishment for my sins on the cross of Calvary. And it's so wonderful to think about the love of Jesus that he'd be willing to do that. You say, well, how heavy was the load? Well, now I brought something else here.
And.
You're wondering about all these books, right?
OK.
I would like everybody to come and take a book.
And then you can take it back to your seat, OK?
We got all different sizes here.
Some are thick and some are thin.
And some are big and some are little.
So as soon as you get a book, I'd like you to take it back to your seat.
OK, so we got the three books left here.
I thought we might run out of books, but we didn't.
Now these books.
Boys and girls.
You have lots of pages.
And we're gonna pretend like these books are a record of your life.
Every thought.
Thought every word.
Every deed, every action.
Is recorded in these books.
And so these are books that.
Are shall we say?
Books of sin and it's not a nice subject to talk about, but the fact is we have to face this matter of sin because sin is what separates us from God.
We don't want to be separated from God. We don't want to be separated from the one who made the world, the universe, made the animals, made you and me. We want to be close to our Creator. We want to have peace with him. But you know what? God is holy. He cannot look upon sin. It tells us that very clearly.
Holy, holy, holy. And to be holy means to love the good, hate the evil.
So sin is a big problem and thank God He has provided a remedy and we spoke about it already. We learned that the Lord Jesus shed his blood at the cross to wash away our sins and so we can come to God and enjoy his companionship. But we want to think about what the Lord Jesus did at the cross to make it all possible.
So some of you have books that are.
Quite thick. Some are thin, you know. I don't know what your life is like, but I want to tell you something if you are still in your sins.
I think you've got a lot more sins in that book than you perhaps realize. God is keeping a record. It tells us in Revelation 20 that the dead, small and great stand before God and the books are open at that time. In those books, nothing but sin because those people, and I'm afraid that they're going to be boys and girls there too, They had opportunity to come to Jesus, but they said no.
00:35:00
No.
I won't come.
And they die in their sins, and they're going to stand before the great White Throne. We read about it in Revelation.
Chapter 20.
But the books are opened OK.
Now you say, well this book doesn't seem that heavy, but I would like you to take your book.
And you hold that book, you see like this.
You just hold it right straight out like that.
And and don't rest it on your knee.
Just hold it there. You find that the book is kind of heavy.
Yeah, I see some books are going down like this.
You know, the longer that we hold that book out there, the heavier it becomes.
And the truth is, OK, you can put your book back.
The truth is, poison girls, the longer that we go on.
Without coming to Jesus, the more sins are recorded in the book and it becomes heavier and heavier and heavier.
It's a very serious thing to disobey the Lord.
And you know what the Lord says to you, and to me He says, Come unto me.
Come unto me, all ye that are.
Uh, heavy late labor and our heavy lace. I will give you rest.
And as I look at the boys and girls here today, I know some have come to Jesus.
In fact, yesterday one of the boys told me.
That he had accepted the Lord Jesus not very long ago, about a month ago, and that was some of the best news I heard.
In a while, it was good news. Yes, he came.
Because the Lord Jesus said, Come unto me, he came.
But the Lord Jesus speaks about some.
And he says they're so stubborn.
They will not come unto me that they might have life. They will not come.
And the book, the record of their sin. It grows and grows. It gets heavier and heavier.
And unless they come to Jesus, they're going to end up in a lost eternity.
In the Lake of Fire.
But the Lord Jesus, he wants to save you, boys and girls. I can't hardly begin to tell you how much He loves you and he wants you to be saved. He wants to have you. We sang about it in this song. He calls the girls. He calls the boys. Why? Because he wants the boys. He wants the girls too.
Because he loves boys and girls.
So I hope there's nobody here that's saying no to Jesus.
Because if you're saying no to Jesus, your book is getting heavier and heavier and heavier, and your book is going to be with you for all eternity if you don't come to Jesus. And you need to come now. Now we're gonna do something. And I never have done this before, but we're gonna find out how it works today.
You know, on the cross, the Lord Jesus.
With arms extended like this, he died.
And it tells us that there.
There was a darkness and I I brought something here.
You see this shroud?
She's planning on that.
What does this represent?
From 12:00 noon until 3:00 in the afternoon, it became dark.
And the sins of all who would trust in the Lord Jesus were put upon him during those dark hours. And Jesus suffered for sins, the chest for the unjust to bring us to God. He was wounded for my transgressions and for yours too, if you trust Him. You know it's nice to put names in verses.
I wonder if somebody here that is saved?
Would be willing to put your name in this verse He was wounded for. Is there anybody whose name I could use? Caleb. OK.
00:40:09
He was wounded for Caleb's transgressions. He was bruised for Caleb's iniquities. The chastisement of Caleb's peace was upon him, and with his stripes, Caleb is healed.
Does that make you feel good, Caitlin?
Yeah, I'd like to put my name in there. How about a girl? Is there a girl that OK, Julia? All right, Julianne is going to let me do her name.
He was wounded for Julianna's transgressions. He was bruised for Julianna's iniquities. The chastisement of Juliana's peace was upon him, and with his stripes Juliana is healed.
Could I put your name in the first?
I'm sure I could if you're trusting in the Savior. But maybe there's somebody here that has never come to the Lord Jesus and you're saying no to Jesus.
And.
That's going on in sin, really in self will, because the Lord Jesus says come unto me and you won't come. Well, let's see what happens.
See, I'll put this right here.
Caleb said he'd be willing to try this. So Caleb, do you mind coming up here?
And you put your hands out like this.
Can you just stand right here, OK.
Now, I know Caleb, he's a big, strong boy. That's why I called on him. So we're going to see how strong he really is. Now, I'm going to ask you boys and girls, one at a time to come up and put your books on Caleb's hands. OK? So can you just extend your hands like that?
Wait, wait, wait, wait. OK, You want to start Sam? OK.
All right.
OK.
Oh, OK, you got it. Let's try to line them up. OK, so.
All right, who's OK?
Now, Caleb, when it gets to be too much, you just let us know.
All right, just hold your seat one at a time, boys and girls.
OK, OK. I think we're done.
OK, boys and girls, thank you very much.
I think Kayla did a good job too.
Uh, no, no, you have to put them back up here, OK.
So, boys and girls.
Kayla did a very good job.
But he was not able.
To bear the sins. Book of everybody was he.
And there is nobody in the whole wide world. I don't know. Some men are so strong they could probably press up about 500 lbs.
Or maybe even 1000. I don't know what the record is, but you know what? There's nobody in the whole wide world.
Who would be able to bear the load of sin, the sin load? Only the Lord Jesus could do that. And so during those dark hours, the Lord Jesus took upon himself our sins. It tells us that.
He dare our sins in his own body on the tree.
And we often sing to him about Oh Christ, what burdens bow thy head our load.
Was laid on.
And you know, the Lord Jesus exhausted the judgment of a holy God against sin, and then his precious blood was shed to wash our sins away. And it's so wonderful to be saved and to know it and to know that we don't have to walk around with a big sin load.
On our back, because Jesus died on the cross, he gave his life.
And shed his blood. And you know, the Lord Jesus rose again the third day. He didn't stay in the grave, but.
00:45:08
When he came out of the grave and went back into heaven, you think he still has those sins upon him?
No sins are gone.
And he sits there.
In holiness and love, reaching out to boys and girls like yourselves. He wants to save you.
He wants to make you happy. You can't be happy with sin mode. Give it to Jesus, trust him, He'll take it all away. You know we sing a song and maybe we should close with this. I see if time is up.
I'm so happy and here's the reason why Jesus took my burden all the way.
How many know this song?
Oh, credit number. No it. OK, let's try it together and see if we can sing it without looking at the words.
I'm so happy and here's the reason why. Jesus took Piper and all away. Now I sing as the days go by. Jesus took my bird and all away. Who wants My heart was heavy with a load of sin. Jesus took the load and gave me peace with it.
Now I'm singing.
Go by, Jesus took my burden all away.
You know, there's another song and we won't take time to sing it. Our time has run out. But it says here in #39 are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care? A load of care. You know, sometimes as Christians, we know our sins are gone, but we carry around cares and we worry and it just becomes.
Such a burden, all of these cares. We worry about whether we're going to get sick or what's going to happen tomorrow or if we're going to lose our job or somebody's going to say something.
It's not nice at school, but you know what? We can take this load to the Lord Jesus too, and he says.
You know he'll take care of the problem, so let's go to him, not only about our sins, but about our cares, OK?
Cast your burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee, casting all your care upon Him, for a care is for you. So we're going to pray. And even as we pray, if there's a boy or girl who has never yet asked the Lord Jesus to take away their sins.
And you realize that your sins are just mounting up and the record of your sin is growing, and you want to be happy and you want to enjoy fellowship, companionship with the Lord Jesus and with God. You can be saved here and now even as we pray. Just say, Lord Jesus, I know I'm a Sinner and I want to be safe. I want to go to heaven.
And.
I ask you to wash my sins away.
He'll do it. He'll do it now, and you can go out of this place happy.
And you'll be able to sing from the bottom of your heart. I'm so happy because Jesus took my burden all the way. So let's pray. Our Father and gracious God, we thank thee this morning for the wonderful message of the gospel, a message of love that has come down from above to cheer our hearts. We thank thee, Lord Jesus, that thou is willing to go to the cross.
And thou wouldst be willing to take.
Our sins upon thyself, and make them thine own, and suffer the wrath, the fierce anger of a holy God against those sins. We thank thee that thou hast exhausted the judgment. And now we go free and we can rejoice and sing. Oh Happy Day, when Jesus washed my sins away. But we pray especially for any in this hall today who might still be without Christ.
Without salvation in their sins, traveling the broad road to destruction, we earnestly pray that they might be arrested in their downward course, might feel the weight of their sins, and enter into Thy holiness in some measure to realize that Thou art of two pure eyes than to behold iniquity. And so we do pray that souls might turn in repentance to Thee.
00:50:04
Lord Jesus, entrust thee and be.
Assured that all is well for time and eternity. So we ask all now and thank you for each dear boy and girl here today. We ask and give thanks for all things in the precious name of the Lord Jesus, Amen.
