Jesus Christ was crucified twice for sinners. Jesus died. Oh the glory of the grace shining in a Savior's face, telling sinners from above. God is light and God is love.
47 in the.
In the appendix.
Style.
Every time.
All of the grave shining.
One day you're saying yourself and we say it's.
Shall we pray? Loving Father, we're so thankful to be here tonight. We're so thankful, loving Father, to be able to preach this wonderful news of salvation to whosoever will. Loving Father, we thank Thee that Thou art a God that is rich in mercy for Thy great love. We're with those loved us even when we were dead and trespasses and sins.
And we thank thee, our God and Father, that doubt is sin, Thy beloved Son.
The Lord Jesus Christ into this world to be the sin bearer on Calvary's cross for our sins.
00:05:00
And we thank the Lord Jesus for thy obedience to the Father and willingly going to that cross and dying in our stead. And Lord Jesus, we do thank Thee that thou hast made salvation full and free to whosoever will, because of thy precious work on Calvary's cross. And thine arms are outstretched to this world tonight. And now we're seeking lost ones to come to thee tonight in all their sinned, and be saved and save for all eternity and have the assurance of it. We just thank Thee.
For Thy precious word that we can have open before us tonight, and we ask thy blessing as we open eyed word. We can't do this without the loving Father, and we need Thee for this hour. And so we do pray that this wonderful news of salvation will be told once more. Tell it again.
Tell it again, salvation story. Repeat or and or till none can say. I've never heard it before. Lord Jesus, we ask thee for this in thy precious and worthy name. Amen.
You know, I'm so very thankful for the prayers of the Saints in this last week or so. And we really felt that when we were in Mongolia and we were into many prisons in Mongolia and preached the gospel. And it wasn't a case of preparing a head ahead of time as to what I was going to speak on.
It, it just seemed like the prayers of the Saints just helped us and we just went in and I opened my mouth and the gospel came out and I want to share with you some of the verses that are wonderful God gave me when we were in the prisons there and preaching to these dear ones in the prison. And the first one is a very incredible, precious, precious person. When I first heard it, I it just.
Thrilled my soul to very bone and I hope it thrills your soul to.
And it goes in Job 3414.
Job 34, verse 14. If he set his heart upon man, if he gathered unto himself his spirit and his breath, all flesh shall perish together, and man shall return again to the dust.
I'm going to read it in Darby, and this is precious. I want you to really take note of this.
Hippie only thought of himself.
If he only thought of himself, and gathered unto him.
His spirit in his breath, all flesh would expire together.
And man would return to the dust.
Beautiful, isn't it? Think of it, if he only thought of himself as God, this wonderful God that we have to proclaim tonight, that if he only thought of himself, where would you and I be? We be.
In the dust, condemned forever, lost forever. But the wonderful muse of the gospel is this, that he didn't think of himself. No, he did. This wonderful, loving God never thought of himself. No, He thought about you and I. He thought about each one of us here. He thought about you. And what did he do?
The verse.
That goes with this verse is this God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Isn't that beautiful? This wonderful verse that has been proclaimed all over this world for 2000 years and it's been a means of many precious souls fighting the Lord Jesus as their own personal Savior. How many souls have been saved through that verse?
God so loved the world.
Think of it. He didn't think of himself. No, He thought about you. God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son. Think of that. How wonderful that this wonderful, loving God thought about you and I. And he sent his Son. He sent his Son into this world. I will send my son. Wonderful, isn't it? What a wonderful God.
Or, you know, it's, it's it's such a wonderful thing to be a child of God, to know this wonderful God that has saved me.
00:10:09
And this wonderful God that I'm going to spend an eternity with in that coming scene of glory. And, you know, think of it that maybe this very night will be in that.
Hear that wonderful shout that will take us out of this scene and into his very presence. You know, there's some young boys, young girls here in this room tonight. And what about it? You're sitting beside your mother and father and your mother and father can't, can't save your soul.
It's got to be an individual effort between between you and God. And what about it? Have you come as a guilty, lost Sinner? What about it? You know, you're sitting beside your mother and father and everything, anything that you want from your father, you ask him and things like that. And you've got a home to go to and all the comforts of your home.
But you know, when I was in Mongolia, I went into an orphanage and there were children there that had been abandoned by their brother.
Or their mother had died and they didn't have any mother.
No mother at all.
No father, no family, nothing. 200 kids living in an orphanage.
That you've got a mother, you've got a father, and you've got a Christian home and you've got the word of God read in your home. You've got it. And you know you're more responsible than those children in Mongolia that didn't have a mother and father.
And you've heard the gospel over and over again many Lord's days, just as it is tonight.
And what about it? Have you accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your own personal Savior? Have you done it? You know tomorrow may be too late. He says, behold, now is the accepted time. Behold, now is the day of salvation. Think of it, that the Lord Jesus is offering you salvation full and free tonight, without money, without price.
It's all been done at Calvary's cross. The Lord Jesus could say on Calvary's credit is finished and he bowed his head and gave up the coast. There was nothing left for you and I to do but just come to the Lord Jesus tonight. Nothing left for us to do, nothing left for us to do. It's all been done. Everything's been done. The Lord Jesus went to that cross and died there on that cross where he was alone, forsaken of a holy, righteous, sinning sin heating God. Think of it, what the Lord Jesus suffered there on Calvary's cross for your sins and mine.
Whose own self bore our sins in his own body on the tree, yes.
Here one tonight he bore my sin in his own body on the tree, and yet his arms are outstretched to you tonight. And he said to you, come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Oh what a wonderful loving Savior that we have to proclaim tonight. Think of it that 2000 years the gospel has been preached and God is long-suffering and not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
And is lengthened out the day of grace so that you may come tonight.
And he says, Behold, now is accepted time. Behold, now is the day of salvation. And he says, Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth.
It's time to come to Christ. Don't put it off. Don't wait for another day.
Come now, come tonight before it's forever too late. I'm going to go to a man that in the Old Testament, later on in in this gospel, and I'm going to tell you about this man that he was given every opportunity to repent to the God of Israel and he didn't.
And you know, you're given every opportunity and you're responsible tonight. And you know, if there's someone here tonight that has never heard the gospel before, you know there's a wonderful God that loves you, a wonderful God that loves you, a God that sent his Son into this world to die for you. And you know, dear one, tonight that you've sinned against the holy God, a thrice holy God. I want to say that. A holy, holy, holy God.
Who cannot have sin in his presence, But you know he's provided a way through his Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. It says the blood of Jesus Christ, God's Son, cleanses us from all sin. I want to tell you that you'll never get to heaven without the blood of Christ. You'll never get to heaven without the work of Christ in Calvary's cross. It's all been done for you. Everything we can say it is finished, just indeed finished. Every jaunt.
00:15:14
Sinner, this is all you need. Tell me, is it not? Is there any other way? No, he said, I am the way, the truth and the life. No man cometh unto the Father, but by me there's only one savior for this world. It's the Lord Jesus Christ. You know, when we were in in Mongolia, it was Buddha. It was Buddha. But you know Buddha can save you.
Muhammad can't save you. Confucius can't save you.
All these false gods can can save you. There's only one savior for this world that says.
Neither is there salvation than any other, for there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved. It is only the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, that name which is about every name. The Gospel tract that we gave out was this, Who is Jesus? And I want to ask you this one question tonight. Dear young ones here tonight and older ones here tonight, who is Jesus? Can you answer that question?
Or you say, well, he's God's son, but is he your savior? Is he your savior? Can you say that he is my savior? Ah, they would, as I would give out the Gospel tract, Who is Jesus? All they would say, Oh Jesus, oh Jesus, you know, one dear, one dear man that when I gave him out the Gospel tract to his Jesus. So he took that and he put it up to his chest. He couldn't speak a word of English and I couldn't speak a word of Mongolian, but it was precious, that name to him.
Is it precious to you? The name of Jesus? Is it precious to you?
That name which is above every name you know. At the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow. If you don't bow the knee to the name of the Lord Jesus tonight, you'll bow the knee to the Lord Jesus in the coming day as your judge, as your judge.
You know God doesn't want to send a man to hell. No, he says. I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked.
But that the wicked turned from his evil way and live. And then he says, turn, ye turn. Yay for why will he die? God is long-suffering, not willing that any should perish. And that's a wonderful thing in the gospel, that here he is our loving Savior with his arms outstretched. And to you tonight here in this room, are you a stranger to the Lord Jesus? Oh, come to him tonight before it's forever too late.
Turn with me to Matthew 27.
Matthew 27.
Verse 22.
Pilate said unto him, What shall I do then with Jesus, which is called the Christ?
And this was the other verse that the Lord gave me in those prisons, and that was this, what shall I do then with Jesus, which is called the Christ? And that is a question for you tonight, dear one. We want to remind you that you're in a very solemn gospel meeting and you're responsible for what you're hearing tonight. And it's just as if Pilot is here in this room tonight and he's saying to you.
What shall I do with Jesus, which is called the Christ? And God is asking you that question tonight, just as Pilot asked that question 2000 years ago. What shall I do then with Jesus, which is called the Christ? And what are you going to do about it?
What are you going to do about it? What are you going to do about Jesus? Are you going to receive Him as your Savior?
Or are you going to be like Pilot and Washington? Your hands are going to have nothing to do with it?
I'm going to remain neutral. You know you can't. It is impossible to remain neutral. It is impossible before a holy righteous, sin hating God. Turn with me and I'll show you the that in John chapter 3.
John chapter 3. You cannot remain neutral. You must decide.
00:20:01
Choose you this day whom He will serve.
John 3, verse 36. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life.
And he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him. Now I ask you, do you see anything in the middle of that verse that that can suggest to you that you can remain neutral? No, it's only one way or the other.
Either you accept Christ or you reject him, and the wrath of God of fighting on you favor. What a solemn thing you think of it that if there's one here tonight.
Is still in their sins that the wrath of God is abiding on you. Oh, I plead with you to come to the Lord Jesus Christ tonight, please, from the wrath to come before it is forever too late.
Would you turn with me now to Jeremiah?
You know, brethren, that.
I love Jeremiah. I love him. He is a tremendous, tremendous inspiration to me. You know, God told him in the first chapter, I'll just go a little bit through the earth. God told Jeremiah in the first chapter, he says, I want you to go and tell the nation of Israel. I want you to tell them, what do you tell them here?
Let's start with verse 7.
Ever 6.
No. Verse five Sorry. Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou came as forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordered thee a prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Oh Lord God, behold, I cannot speak, for I am a child, you know.
It's interesting.
A few months ago brother Reuben phoned me up and he said Ali said how would you like to go to Mongolia?
Reuben, Mongolia.
And then and then I thought and then I started praying about it. I really, I didn't want to go. I didn't want to go. And I just feel a little bit like Jeremiah here, you know, I can't do that. I can't do that.
First, per SE, be not afraid of their faces, for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. Then the Lord put forth his hand and touched my mouth. And the Lord said unto me, Prehole, I have put my words in thy mouth. See I have I have this day set thee over the nations, over the Kingdom, to root out, to pull down and destroy and throw down, and to build and to plant all. And so the time went along, and I prayed about it. And should I go to Mongolia with brother Reuben? And, and then finally one day I said.
Before the Lord's uncle.
You know, brother.
Two days later.
I got a letter in the mail.
And it covered.
The full amount of our trip to Mongolia.
You know, he's a wonderful car, a wonderful guy.
A wonderful God and yet man would say, hey, you know, being a Christian, that must be an awful, dull, dull life, Boring. And you're in you're in meetings like this and you're over the word of God and you go to places in North Carolina and all over the place. And that must be a dull life. No, no, it's a wonderful life and I wouldn't trade it for all the world. What a God we have. What a wonderful God we have. And so he's talking to Jeremiah and he says, I want you to go.
And tell the nation of Israel.
He says verse 15, Lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north of the Lord.
And they shall come, and they shall set everyone on His throne at the entering in of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the world walls. They're all roundabout, and against all the cities of Judah. And I will utter my judgments against them, touching all their witness who have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worship the works of their own hands. Now you know I said that Jeremiah is an inspiration to me. And you know what he did? He told the nation of Judah.
00:25:12
He told them, he said, you know, judgment is coming, judgment is coming. Nebuchadnezzar's army is going to come and overtake this land, and you're all going to be carried away captive. And that's what Jeremiah did. And if you go all the way through the book of Jeremiah over and over again, he's warning the nation of Judah, he said that judgment is coming.
And you know, it's just like the day of Greece today, that judgment is coming on this world and someday will be too late. Think of it, it says too late. Too late will be the cry. Jesus of Nazareth has passed by and you'll never have a gospel meeting. You'll never have an opportunity to come to Christ, obey and all. There are some that will say today, are you going to get a second chance?
No you won't. God will send you a strong delusion that you'll believe alive.
But yet till today, the gospel going forward and here is Jeremiah and he's proclaiming this news, proclaiming this solemn judgment on the nation of Judah and he's warning them. And you know, God is warning this world tonight. It says in in Ezekiel chapter 33 twice over, it says, warn them from me, warn this world.
And you know, the gospel brings a warning. Tonight, the gospel brings a very solemn warning. God doesn't want to send a little boy, a little girl to hell. But you know, if you reject this wonderful offer of salvation, he's got no other course than to send you to a lost eternity. Think of that. How solemn. But tonight you have an opportunity to be saved.
All did. Did Jeremiah suffer? Sure he did.
Yeah, they put them, they put them in a prison. They put them down in a pit. Well, they'll go to that place there where they put them down in the pit. It's Jeremiah chapter.
Chapter 38.
Jeremiah chapter 38 and verse 6.
They then they then took the Jeremiah and cast them into a dungeon.
Of Malachi, the son of Hamlet that was in the court.
Of the person. And they let down Jeremiah with cords, and in the dungeon there was no water but Meyer. So Jeremiah sank in the mire. Think of that. Here he was preaching, He was warning the nation of Judah of coming judgment, and they put him down in that. In that pit they said, Jeremiah, be quiet.
Be quiet. And you know there are many that well today will say the same thing. Be quiet. Don't tell us anymore about that.
But yet we need to do it. You know the song that we sing in Sunday school? Tell it again, tell it again. Salvation story. Repeat or and or till none can say. I've never heard it before. You know you've heard it before. I know everyone here tonight, I believe in this room has heard this wonderful gospel before and you're responsible. But they put Jeremiah down in that, in that pit and it says he sank in the fire.
Go to just.
Go to Psalm 69.
Psalm 69.
Say me, O God, for the waters are coming to my soul. I think indeed mire, where there is no standing. I am coming to deep waters where the floods overflow me. I am weary, am I crying? My throat is dried, my eyes fail while I wait for my God. They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head. They that would destroy me, being my enemies, wrongfully or mighty. Then I restore not that which I took not away.
Save me, O God, for the waters of come into my soul. I think indeed my earth, where there is no standing. Think of that. What is this? It's our blessed Lord on Calvary Cross, there suffering the untold judgments of God because of your sins and mine.
00:30:05
I think indeed mire, but all beloved tonight. Oh, what is it in the Psalm 40 it says he lifted me up also out of an horrible pitch and out of the mirey clay and he set my feet on a rock and he established my going and he put a new song even praise unto my God. Oh, this your case. Can you say that tonight that he's lifted me up out of a horrible pit and that is.
Year 1 tonight.
Horrible pit. A horrible pit. You know, if you could.
Here, the history of the man that is standing before you tonight, You would say it's only the grace of God. It's only the grace of God.
He lifted me up out of a horrible pit. Hey, wait a minute, you said, didn't you? Weren't you raised in a Christian home? Yeah, I was. But he lifted me up out of a horrible pit.
You know, it says there in the March and he says a pit of noise, a pit of noise. And you know, that's just the God of this world noise. Make a noise. Make a noise, Make a noise, Make a noise. Don't think about your salvation. Don't think about eternity. Make a noise.
We've been redeemed from all that in that wonderful what a God we have.
Turn with me to Chapter 52.
So Jeremiah preached. He told it. He told it over and over again.
Zedekiah took him aside in one of the chapters and he says.
Is there a message from God for me? You know, Jeremiah had just come out of the prison and he, he comes to Jeremiah and he and he says to him secretly he didn't want anybody to know about this little meeting with Jeremiah.
And he says, is there a message from God for me? And you think, oh, Jeremiah, he'd just come out of the prison, Maybe he might have changed his tune. No, it was the same thing. It's the same thing. Judge Mendez coming.
Judgment is coming.
Did it come? Yes, it did.
Chapter 52.
Zedekiah.
Was one and 20 years old when he began to reign. What did that tell you? Well, right now, today, in today's standards, you're 21.
You are a man. You're a full grown. You're an adult.
You're responsible. You're responsible. Zeddy Kaya was 2121 years old when he ascended the throne.
Three spots. He had heard it. It had been told him over and over again.
And Zedekiah had 11 years of his reign.
To repent and come to the God of Israel. He had 11 years. You know, you might not have 11 years.
You might not have even one day.
You might not even have one hour.
If the Lord Jesus were to come at 9:00, where would you be?
Sitting in your seat, lost forever and in your sins. And so there's an urgency in the Gospel. You know, the Lord Jesus could say in John 737, he says in that last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried saying, if any man thirst, let him come to me and drink. And you know, there are so many that tonight are so thirsty. You know, this world cannot satisfy your thirst.
It's only the Lord Jesus Christ, he says. He satisfies the longing soul and filleth the hungry soul with fatness. Oh, how wonderful it is to be a child of God.
Was one in 20 years old when he began to reign, and he reigned 11 years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hammett, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libna. And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Jehoiakim had done. All you know, here it is, he did that which was evil in the sight of the world of the Lord. And you know Romans 323 says this.
00:35:09
All have sinned.
Come short of the glory of God. Those sins, dear one, have separated you from a holy righteous sin hitting God, a God that cannot have sin in His presence. I remember so many years ago when we were in Newfoundland, we had the opportunity of presenting the gospel in one of the villages near our and we were we. We went through the gospel meeting and the hobby class with the children.
And at the end some of the peers came to us and were just really mean. And how dare you come to this building and and tell those children about the Lord Jesus Christ.
But you know, there was one thing that those children heard, and I told them this.
It only takes one sin to set you to shut you out of heaven forever. And I heard that after some of the children that had told their parents that it only takes one sin to shut you out of heaven forever. Think about it that Adam sinned only once or did he?
And God shut him out of the Garden of Eden forever.
God cannot have sin in his presence. Thus set the high and mighty one that inhabits eternity, whose name is holy.
He did that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Jehovah had done. For through the anger of the Lord it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the 10th month and the 10th day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came he and all his army against Jerusalem, and pitched against it, and built forts against it roundabout. So the city was besieged unto the 11Th year. Now here he's got a year and a half, the armies are around Jerusalem, he's got a year and a half to repent.
Did he? No, he didn't. No, he didn't. And you know, God has given you an opportunity to be saved tonight. Another opportunity to be saved.
Are you going to lay hold of that wonderful opportunity tonight?
These longings that you might be saved tonight God has not long-suffering, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. You know, dear one, tonight God now commandeth all men everywhere to repent, because he hath appointed a day into which he will judge this world in righteousness by that man whom Healeth ordained whereof he gave assurance, and that he raised him from the debt. Beautiful, isn't it, all, these gods of this world, But we have arisen, Savior, on high in the glory.
A living man in the glory beautiful. Oh what a savior. Surely we can say Hallelujah, what a savior. Oh God that opens doors that God that.
Allows us to go into prisons and preach the gospel, you know?
It was this wonderful, loving God and His long-suffering mercy that opened those prison doors.
You know, Baggy too, we were trying to get into the big penitentiary in the middle of the desert out there miles from nowhere, a cow trail to get there. And we came to the entrance and we went into the into the office and, and, and Baggy too was talking to them in Mongolian and telling them what we wanted and we wanted to come in and preach the gospel to them. And all of a sudden he come flying out to us and he says Hallelujah, Jesus.
That's all he knew. In English he says Hallelujah, Jesus. And we went in and there was 500 souls had heard the particle sun, 500 souls have heard the story of the prodigal son. Why did God do that? Because you're not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. The gospel go what a loving God, God, what a loving God.
I'm Dedicaya had a chance to repent and he didn't.
Citizens South.
00:40:01
Verse 7. Then the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by way of the gate between the two walls, which was the King's garden.
Now the Chaldeans were by the city roundabout, and they went by the way of the plane. But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and all his armies were stuttered from him.
Oh, here it is. He's trying to escape. All you know, there is no escape. It says what shall the end be of those that obey not the gospel of Christ. What a solemn thing to go out of this room tonight still lost and in your sin. Oh, I pray that there's not one here tonight that will go out of this room still a lost guilty Sinner. God is offering. He's inviting you to come tonight. Just won't you come tonight as a guilty Sinner before a holy righteous sin hitting God.
You know, it says in Romans 10 and nine, we've had it before us in these meetings, it says that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in thine heart that God has raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. I want to repeat this story again. Probably you've heard it, heard me tell this story before. But up there in New World Island in Newfoundland, there were two little boys that came into the Gospel tent and they heard the story of the Lord Jesus Christ and they heard that.
That verse Romans 10 and nine. And those two little boys accepted Christ as their Savior. And the next day they came to us and they were, and we were talking to them about it and we were talking about Romans 10:00 and 9:00. And that little boy said, yes, he said, but you have to sense what you mean. You have to sense what you mean. All that little boy meant it. How about you? Do you mean it?
Do you mean it? Is it coming from your heart? Look what it says. It says if thou shalt confess with thy mouth, you have a mouth, the Lord Jesus, and believe in thine heart that God hath reason from the dead. Thou shalt be saved. It has to come from the heart that you have to meet it.
You have to mean it. I'm a guilty lost Sinner.
On the guilty law Sinner, I need to be saved.
The prodigal son came to his father and he said, Father, I've sinned against heaven, and in thy sight I'm no more worthy to be called thy son. Oh, think of it, dear one. Tonight, dear young people, tonight mothers and fathers are praying for you. My mother is 100 years old. She's going to be 100 in next month, my dear mother.
Sweet soul, I was so blessed having such wonderful parents but the sorrow I brought on my parents when I was young but thanks to their precious prayers interceding.
To holy God for me to save my precious soul. Oh, you know.
Don't follow the course of this world, dear young people, Don't follow this world.
It'll never satisfy you. I tried it, it doesn't work. It doesn't work.
There's only one that can satisfy the Lord Jesus Trace.
Dedekaya tried to escape, and there'll be no escape for those that obey not the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Turn back with me now to that. I think it was chapter 30.
3038.
So they put Jeremiah down in that pit.
And Jeremiah think in that, in that pit there, but you know, there was a man.
This is so wonderful, this is so beautiful, this story. There was a man by the name of Ibed Malik, the Ethiopian. He was a black man. He was a black man. And you know, God loves to save the black man. And always I was looking at all those children in that orphanage there in Mongolia. I was thinking of that song that we sing in Sunday school. Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world, red and yellow, black and white, all our precious in this site. The Lord Jesus loves those black children down there in Ghana and in Nigeria.
00:45:09
And he loves those children over there in Mongolia.
And he died for those children, and he loves them so very much.
Wants them with him in that wonderful home in heaven that he's prepared for little children that put their faith and trust in the Lord Jesus.
For those children, even though they were in an orphanage, they didn't have any mother or father, but they were precious to the Lord Jesus. It was a wonderful that that orphanage, a Christian woman ran that orphanage.
Not beautiful and we had the privilege of giving.
A stack of laminated texts that high and bookmarks and pencils and everything else that we could carry in our bags to those children. And I dare say that every one of those laminated texts are hanging up in every one of the rooms. Mongolian Bible verses. I say praise the Lord, His word will never return unto him voice there they are hanging up in the walls. Maybe those those texts are hanging up in the walls, a silent witness to the grace of God and the love of God. And God wants to save those precious souls.
But not only does he want to save precious souls in Mongolia and Ghana and wherever all over this world, but he wants to save your precious soul tonight if you're still in your sin.
Wonderful God, wonderful God. And here's Ebid and I like the Ethiopian. All he thinks, all he thinks of Jeremiah down in that pit. Oh, you know, he wanted to be identified with that man that went down into the pit. Oh dear one tonight, do you want to be identified with that blessed band, the Lord Jesus Christ, who went down into death for you, who sunk a deep mire there at Calvary's cross?
That wonderful, wonderful Savior that suffered on Calvary's cross for you, do you know him personally as your Lord and Savior? What did they do? Oh, Yvette Maliki, take some old class clothes and rotten rags and take Jeremiah up out of that pit. And that says they lifted Jeremiah up out of that pit by those cords. You know, again, I'm going to say this Psalm 40, He lifted me up also. I've been horrible pit and out of the miry clay.
And set my feet upon a rock, and establish my going. And put a new song in my mouth. Even praised unto my God. Wonderful.
Yeah, now go to think it's chapter 39.
Chapter 39.
Verse 15.
Now the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah, while he was shot up in the court of the prison, saying, Go and speak to Yved Malik, the Ethiopian, saying thus, that the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, behold, I will bring my words upon this city for evil, giddy, giddy God in his.
God is going to bring this world into an awful judgment. You know, when the church is taken home, this world is going to come under the solemn judgment of God. I believe that this world is going to be decimated of its population.
Terrible times are coming upon this world, and Oh dear one, tonight we say this.
Flee from the coming wrath to come.
I will and and they shall be accomplished in that day before thee. But verse 17 I will deliver thee in that day, saith the Lord. And thou shalt not be given unto the hand of the men whom thou art afraid for I will surely deliver thee. And thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey entity. Now look at this.
Look at this as a sentence coming up, because thou hast put thy trust in the Lord.
I was put thy trust in thee, Sir, the Lord. Isn't that a sweet thing? Isn't that so beautiful? Because thou hast put thy trust in me, said the Lord. I remember so many years ago. I suppose it's probably over 50 years now that.
I came to the Lord Jesus Christ as a guilty, lost Sinner. Oh.
00:50:01
I got so tired of the glitter and glamour. Enough.
Awfulness of this world.
And I came to Christ and accepted Him as my own personal Savior.
And I remember the song.
It says it only says a simple thing. Believe and live, Dolly, and live. You know, God doesn't ask you to do something complicated to be to be saved. You don't have to climb a big staircase. You don't have to go on an excursion to Mongolia or Africa or anything like that, No.
All he wants you to do is come, I figured.
His long-suffering burst, and there he is tonight our blessed Lord Jesus. He's saying to you, come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. He says in John 637 him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. He won't say to you, oh you're too bad, you're too bad. No, you can come in perfect confidence and know that he'll receive you this man.
Received a sinner's sinners, and eateth with them.
The just read it.
First John, chapter 5.
First John, chapter 5.
Verse 13.
These things have I written unto you, that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
How wonderful these things that are written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that he may know, that ye may know. You don't want to guess at your salvation. Maybe I'm saved, maybe I'm on my way to heaven. No, I know.
By the authority of this precious book that I have opened before tonight.
Oh, I urge you tonight here in this wonderful book that God has given us our words of life. Oh, if only man would open this wonderful book and read it.
He'd find a wonderful savior, said Delight to save.
The lights to play.
This wonderful God, Dear one, tonight, do you know this wonderful God?
If I asked you the question tonight, who is Jesus? Would you be able to say you're my Savior, My Savior?
By the grace of God, tonight I can say He is my Savior, my Jesus.
The one I'm going to spend an eternity with.
Hallelujah, praise ye the Lord, what a savior.
Thank the Lord together.
Loving Father, we're so thankful that we've had the privilege once more of preaching the gospel, even though it's been so feeble. Loving Father, we just ask thy rich blessing. We ask thee that as thy word went forth tonight, that it may be bear fruit for thy glory, Blessed Lord. And we do pray that if there's any here tonight, there's still strangers to Thee, that behold, now is the accepted time. Behold, now is the day of salvation. Tomorrow, maybe too late. Oh.
We do urge anyone here tonight that are still in their sins, that tomorrow may be too late. Behold, now is the accepted time. Behold, now is the day of salvation, That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. To know the Lord Jesus as your Savior, to have the assurance of it. Oh Lord, we just thank thee for our day together. A little taste of the home to which we're going to very shortly, we thank thee for Lord Jesus.
And I precious and really name Amen.
