Ye Must be Born Again

Listen from:
Gospel—E. Munck
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.
Do you need anymore of a display of the love of God told out?
And the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our friend, let us look at it a few verses in Exodus chapter 21.
Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them. If thou buy in Hebrew servant six years he shall serve, and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
And if he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself. If he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.
But if his master have given him a wife, and she have borne him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her masters, and he shall go out by himself.
And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children, I will not go out free. Then his master shall bring him on to the judges. He shall also bring him to the door or onto the door post, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awe, and he shall serve him forever.
Where we live? I asked the children.
Could the Lord Jesus come down from the cross?
Could the Lord Jesus, was he free to come down from the cross?
You know the cross is what man gave to the Lord Jesus. Let us look at Matthew chapter 27.
In verse 27.
Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall.
And gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers, and they stripped him.
And put on him a scarlet robe, and when they had planted, a crown of thorns.
They put it upon his head, and a Reed in his right hand, and they bowed the knee before him.
And mocked him, saying Hail King of the Jews.
And they spit upon him, and took the Reed and smoked him.
On the head. And after that they had mocked him. They took the robe off from him.
And put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.
Ah, that's the treatment that man has accorded given to the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Son of God, the darling of his bosom, the one who always did his delight. Do you remember when Joseph was asked to go down to visit his brothers? What did they say?
Ah, let us kill him, Let us kill him. Here comes that dreamer all he was sent down there in their interest.
To find out how it was with his brothers. But what did they do? They told him they sold him into slavery for 15 pieces of silver. The Lord Jesus was sold for 30 pieces of silver. Let us look at another scripture in Matthew chapter 21.
Hear another parable, verse 33.
There was a certain householder which planted a vineyard and hedged it round about and digged a winepress in it and built a tower.
And let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country. And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. And the husbandman took his servants.
And beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. Again he sent other servants more than the 1St. And they did unto them likewise. But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandman saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir, Come, let us kill him and seize on his inheritance.
00:05:05
And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. When the Lord therefore the vineyard cometh.
What will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard on to other husbandmen, which shall render on him the fruits in their seasons.
All those servants.
They judged rightly all when the husbandmen came they would cast him out, and then they said he will miserably destroy those wicked men. Solemn thing, isn't it? Man pronounced his own judgment.
Have you ever been before God and found out a little bit about what's in your heart toward the Lord Jesus?
Do you know we, the Scripture says all we, like sheep, have gone astray. We have turned everyone to his own way.
You know, everybody doesn't have the same way, but it's sure we have turned to our own way. We want to do what we want to do because we want to do it.
Let us look at John chapter 3.
Reading from John, chapter 2.
Verse 23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover in the feast day.
Many believed in His name when they saw the miracles which He did.
But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because He knew all men.
And needed not that any should testify of man, for he knew what was in man. Oh, if there's anyone who knows what is in man, it's gone. The 139th Psalm tells us this.
Oh God, thou hast searched me. God doesn't have to search you boys and girls.
He's already done it. Thou hast known me. Thou knowest my down sitting and mine uprisings, and art acquainted with all my ways.
Here we find that the Lord Jesus.
He performed miracles and there were those that believed on him, but all friend.
You know, miracles never produced solid conviction. Miracles never showed out.
For sure, what was in God's heart, miracles cannot save you. And you know, a man may be convinced by miracles and a person may intellectually prove that the Bible is true, but that'll never save him.
Solemn thing, isn't it?
You know, in Acts chapter.
26.
Verse 26 it says For the king knoweth of these things.
Whom are before whom I speak freely. For I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him. For this thing was not done in a corner. King Agrippa, believeth thou the prophets? I know that thou believe us. Then Agrippa said to Paul.
Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.
Do you know, friend, you might be here tonight and you might be brought by friends here.
And those who have proved to you that the Bible is true, the Bible is the word of God. Put all that'll never save you.
Let's read.
On chapter 3.
But there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher, come from God.
00:10:10
For no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
Here was another man who said we know, we know.
Do you know, do you know I believe that the children of God's people.
No, they know and they don't like it. Those that have never been brought to the Lord Jesus and they like to escape these things. In the book of Daniel we read about one.
Chapter 5 of Daniel.
It says And thou his son, O Belshazzar, verse 22.
Hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knowest all this, though thou knewest all this.
What a solemn thing it is to be brought into the light of the knowledge of the truth of God, to have been brought before you your responsibility as a Sinner in the sight of God. Do you know the world? Ling They don't know anything about it.
But you, you know about it. Thou knowest these things.
You know Rahab the harlot, she could say, I know that God has delivered the city into your hands. I know. Ah, there was conviction there.
Serious, solemn conviction, and here.
This man.
Nicodemus, he comes by night time to the Lord Jesus. There's something working there. There's not happiness. He doesn't know what the problem is.
The Lord Jesus said to him.
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.
Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter it the second time into his mother's womb and be born?
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee.
Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.
Oh, what a solemn thing this is to a man who is most religious.
And I wouldn't doubt but he was an upright man, but all his uprightness couldn't save him.
Doing the commandments couldn't save him. He needed a new life from God. That's what you need, friend.
Always, sometimes sing that little hymn. Little child, do you love Jesus?
Ask your little heart today I will tell of one who loves you.
Be your answer what it may all that's the glory of the gospel of the grace of God.
Do you know that verse that says Prepare to meet thy God? Or the poet could say no preparation can I make my best resolves I only break or take me as I am. Helpless am I and full of guilt, yet for me thy blood was spilt. Or take me as I am.
Nicodemus. If the Lord had told him to do something, he would have done it.
He had done his best at it, but all he had to be born again. And so do you to night.
Do I well remember when a man stood up and said.
If you don't.
Agree that you deserve to go to hell for all eternity.
You're not saved.
Oh, I said to myself.
I deserve to go to hell for all eternity.
That's what God says. God tells us that the wages of sin is death. No, my heart said, oh, do I really feel that I deserve to go to hell for all eternity and all there was rebellion there.
00:15:09
Oh my friend, it's a serious thing to be a rebel in the face of God.
Oh, think of it. A rebel against God.
You know sled dogs, Oftentimes their master will take them and tie them together.
To pull a sled for miles and miles and miles, and then when he gets to the place where he's gone to, he just lays them tied up in the snow and doesn't feed them anything. And then he comes out and it goes. Sled dogs rebel against him. If one would bite him, it's immediate death.
Oh, what a picture to us of rebellion. Oh, you say, Well, he deserves to be bit.
Ah, my friend, God has had your interest at heart, and you've rebelled against Him in nailing His Son to the cross.
Friend, think of it.
Our hearts our rebellious against God, and that's the root of sin.
Let's read a verse in Romans chapter 8.
Just one verse.
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the law of God.
Neither indeed can be, Neither indeed can be. Oh, I looked at my heart and I thought, oh, I'm going to make it repent. But all I found that I couldn't bend it. The truth was, I was a rebel.
But all, thank God, thank God there's a savior for rebels tonight.
Let's look at a verse in First Peter.
2/1.
23.
Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever.
For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass.
The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away.
But the word of the Lord endureth forever, and this is the word which by the gospel.
Is preached unto you.
Let's look at it in the next chapter.
Verse six it says wherefore also it is contained in the scripture.
Behold, I lay in Sion a chief cornerstone.
Elect precious, and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. Aw, friend, all that man can do only proves to his own condemnation. But you know God has interposed.
God has come in. Thank God for that. And tonight we'd like to tell you that though you're a Sinner, though you're a rebel against God, though you wouldn't bow in your heart to God, God hasn't left you alone.
God has loved you and given His Son to die for you.
Let us look on a little bit.
Verse six says that which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit of spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, ye must be born again. Oh, as a little boy. These verses were trouble to me because I couldn't borne myself again. I couldn't make myself anew.
I couldn't do anything. I was helpless, Helpless before God.
00:20:01
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, or whither it goeth. Slow is everyone that is born of the Spirit.
You know, man might say, why does God find fault? How can God find fault if I'm helpless?
If I can extricate myself, if I can't lift myself up by my own bootstraps, why does God yet find fault? You know we read that verse in Romans Chapter 9. Let's just read it.
Thou wilt say then unto me, Why dothe yet find fault, for who hath resisted his will?
Nay, but O man, who art thou that replyest against God?
Shall the thing form say to him that formed it? Why hast thou made me thus?
What a question do you know man would like to blame his sin on God?
In 1957 my mom and sister went to Germany.
And they went to a restaurant in Bavaria.
They sat down at a table. Pretty soon a big man came over from another table.
And he says, what's the matter? Do you think you're better than we are? Can't you eat with us?
So my mom and sister got up and went and sat with all the rest of the Bavarians.
And then she bowed and gave thanks for her food.
And one woman said what? You still believe in God? I don't believe in God anymore. I lost my husband and four sons in the last war, and I don't believe in God.
Aw, friend.
Is that where you're looking to find out about God, the circumstances that have come into your life and the fact that you're born into a world of sin, the fact that you're a Sinner and a helpless Sinner at that, and can't change your spots? Or can the leper change his spots? We read.
Can the Ethiopian change his skin? Can the leopard change his thoughts?
Neither can you change your ways, saith the Lord God. Oh, what a solemn thing that is. Where does that leave you? Ah, I'll tell you where it leaves you helpless, lost, ruined, undone. And where is help to be found? I say, where is help to be found?
You know, there was a time when there was a siege of a city in the Old Testament.
And the city was straightly shut up. Nobody could go out, nobody could come in. And the question was asked after all the food was gone.
Paul What could they do? What could they eat? What could they do? They were helpless.
And you know what? Besides that they were angry with God for it.
Ah, that's the heart of man. And there's nothing like starvation that will bring out the heart of man.
And all my friends, you're helpless before God. As a Sinner, what can you do?
You can only sit there.
Nothing can you do.
But all friend, God has a resource.
The very God against whom I've rebelled has got a resource. Let us read on.
Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, we speak, that we do know and testify that we have seen, and you receive not our witness.
Or do you know God isn't sharing things today, but He's giving forth a witness in the gospel. He's speaking with the words of His mouth and all. Friend, unless you believe those words of His mouth, you'll remain as you are.
00:25:02
All think of it.
In the previous chapter it says, And they believe the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said, and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said. Do you know the rich man who was in hell? It says.
The answer that came back to him when he said, Send my five brothers, send the prophets, that they may speak to my five brethren.
And it will be that they'll believe them. But the word came back.
That they have Moses and the prophets, and that they are to listen to them. O God has honored His word above all His name. There's one thing that God has done that's concrete.
That his word will not return unto him void that word, that is. Let's read it in Hebrews chapter 6.
Verse 13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by number greater, he swear by himself, saying, surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. And so after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. For men verily swear by the greater.
And an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.
Wherein God willing more abundantly to show under the heirs of promise, the immutability of His counsel.
Confirmed it by an oath that by two immutable things in which it was impossible.
For God to lie, we might have a strong encouragement or consolation who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope sat before us.
Our friend here tonight. Do you know there's one thing we'd like to do?
And that is dash your hopes of anything inside of yourself.
Ah, so that you'd turn your eye to another place.
Turn your eyes to another place.
And no man, verse 13 of our chapter, And no man hath ascended up to heaven.
But he that came down from heaven.
Even the Son of Man, which is in heaven. All you say. What does that verse mean? Heart means perhaps far more than I can survey.
But it does mean this.
That God sent his son.
God sent the Lord Jesus Christ.
Hebrews, one tells us.
God, who at sundry times an end diverse manners.
In time passed unto the Father's, by the Prophets hath in these last days.
Spoken unto us by His Son, in Son, whom He hath appointed a heir of all things, by whom also He made the world's, Who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His Person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself.
Purged our sins, sat down on the right hand, the majesty on high.
God sent the Lord Jesus Christ.
Having yet one son, he sent his beloved son.
Oh, what a reception the Lord Jesus had when he came.
There was number room for him in the end of this world. They brought him.
The only place they had for him was a Manger.
In an in in the stable, oh, there is no room for the Lord Jesus.
But all the Lord Jesus came, and he had an interest in man. Oh God, when he came down in the cool of the day, he called out Adam. Where art thou, Adam?
00:30:18
Where art thou? And maybe the Lord is speaking to someone here tonight.
He's saying where art thou? And you might be saying, I'll be glad when this meeting's over, Let's get out of here as quick as we can. But all that voice should follow you to night, to bed. Where art thou? Where are you tonight? Are you still hiding from God?
Do you know there is no hiding place from God?
You cannot hide from God. We sometimes think with the children, you cannot hide from God no matter where you go. But all friend, you can hide in God.
Let's read on.
And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven.
Even the Son of man, which is in heaven.
All friend, you know at the beginning of our meeting we sang all behold him high lifted up on the cross, on the cross. But you know, the very Lord Jesus who came down into this scene, He's the one who is all over that verse tells us the one who was on this scene, he was in heaven.
But all, we have another thought to bring before you tonight to that the Lord Jesus is no longer on the cross. No, he's not there any longer and he's not in the tomb any longer, but he's at the Father's right hand. All you might be asking, how can a man pay for sins ahead of time?
And then have it all over with and how can I enter into the benefit of that?
Oh, I've got a weak illustration, I admit it. But you know, one time there were two minors.
Who were working together, they were partners. And the one miner, after they got in a mass of gold, he says I want that gold for myself. And So what he did, he stole the gold and he made it look as if the other man had killed him.
And he ran off.
In all the law.
Saw the situation and said for sure that man has killed the other man.
We can't prove it though, and so we can't put, we can't hang him. So what we're going to do, we're going to put him in prison. And they put him in prison for life, no escape, never to get out of prison.
But you know, after a few years they found out that the other man was still alive. And So what did the law do? What could they do?
Why, they gave that man a full pardon. They gave him a pardon.
And they said, you know, that man can never be punished again for that crime.
Oh, he didn't do it. But should he have gone and killed that other man that did him all that harm? The law couldn't touch him.
Oh, and so the Lord Jesus. I know that's a poor illustration.
But it was done ahead of time. The Lord Jesus, he had to answer to God.
For the sins of all those that as it were, caught hold of his skirt. Oh my friend, do you feel you're a Sinner tonight? Would you like to be saved all? There was one time a woman who felt an issue of blood in her, and she did everything to staunch that blood. And there was nothing that she could do to get better, but she only got worse. But she saw that the Lord Jesus was the answer for her.
And she says if I could just touch the hem of his garment, if I could just reach him, I'll be healed.
Our friend, he's still there for you tonight.
The Lord Jesus is available for you.
And so.
00:35:01
You can run to him and catch hold of him. You know there was one time a lady.
Who says, well, she went to the funeral of a friend of hers and Dr. Walston was on the train and he said, well, was your friend a Christian?
And the lady says she was a good, she was a good woman. She says, well, what was her hope? She says, well, you know, I cannot say I have the unshaken confidence of some. She says I cannot say that I never tremor about my sins, but I say I feel like the poor woman who catch hold of the scare to the Lord Jesus.
And the doctor, Wilson said. Well, what did you say to the comfort the woman?
What did you say to her? She says, oh I just says hold on dearie, he'll no shake you off. Our friend here tonight, Think of it, the Lord Jesus has made himself available. He's come into this scene, He's told us about our sins. He's been faithful and said there's no hope for you in yourself.
Oh, what a point to come to. Will you turn to the Lord Jesus?
The feeblest faith in the Lord Jesus saves.
And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven.
Even the Son of Man which is in heaven. Romans chapter 10.
Verse six and seven.
But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise.
Say not in thine heart who shall ascend into heaven, that is to bring Christ down from above. Ah, my friend, you may feel your need of Christ and say, Oh I want that the Lord Jesus should come down from heaven to die for me. Oh, don't say it in your heart. Don't say it in your heart. God says, don't say that in your heart.
And he goes on to say, Or Who shall descend into the deep, that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead?
Aw, friend, you don't need to bring up Christ again from the dead.
You know, the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ is the proof that God is satisfied with all the sins that he bore when he went.
Into the grave.
And when he bore our sins, He was so satisfied with that work that He was raised by the glory of the Father or the glory of God. Demanded that when the Lord Jesus finished the work on the cross, that He should be raised. All the sins and those whose sins he bore are forever gone.
Never to be brought up again.
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, Even so must the Son of Man be lifted up.
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, Even so must the Son of Man be lifted up. Let's look at that in Numbers 19.
For 21 Pardon me.
Verse 5.
And the people spake against God and against Moses.
Wherefore have you brought us up out of this Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no bread, neither is there any water.
And our soul loathes this light bread.
Is that rebellion? Oh yes, rebellion, rebellion.
And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people, and much people of Israel died.
Therefore the people came to Moses and said, We have sinned, for we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee. Pray unto the Lord that he take away the serpents from us, and as Moses and Moses prayed for the people.
00:40:10
All you know in the world today, there are those that would set up a society for the prevention of fiery snake bites.
There are those that would put plasters on the bite. There are those that would make societies for the prevention of snakes. There are those that would do everything in their power to stave off the effect of sin, the judgment of sin. We read the wages of sin.
Is death. Death and all my friends.
The solemnity of it is that after death there's judgment, judgment. And man would do everything in his power to turn away from that, to think about other things, to philosophize about it and say, well, everybody has to die, but all my friend, you know, you have to die.
You who have been bitten by sin, and you who feel the poison of sin in your veins. Oh, my friend, it was the fact that they were dying.
That they called for help. It was the fact that they were dying, not because they were ashamed that they had rebelled against God. But what does God do? Says, oh, I'm not going to have anything to do with those people. No, the heart of God is showed out.
And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole, and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
All that's the word of God, my friend.
Let us think of that verse in Two Corinthians 5 and 21.
It says, For he hath made him to be sin for us.
Who knew no sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in him? Ha, did God ask you how he was going to save you? Did God make a consultation with man and say, well I'll consult with you and see how I'm going to save you?
No, he never consulted me when he sent the Lord Jesus to come down into this scene to die for me. No, it was love that bound the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross. Love for me. Oh friend, was ever love like that?
He was free to go back to heaven. There was nothing in him that bound him here in this world after going through the world.
No, but let's look at some verses in John chapter 6.
It says.
36.
Or 37 verse 36 But I said unto you, that ye also have seen me, and believe not.
All that the Father giveth me shall come to me, and him that cometh to me.
I will in no wise cast out, for I came down from heaven not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. Oh think of it, it was God's will that the Lord Jesus hang on that cross.
It was God's will that he should be made Sin made sin. Oh friend, think of it. And God poured on him the indignation that was due to you and me. God brought him into death.
So that I might live. Oh, thank God for such a savior.
For I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which He hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
00:45:02
And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass.
That if a serpent had bitten any man when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived. Ah, my friend, you know it's forbidden sinners. It's for those who are rebels against God that the gospel comes. Have you ever come to the point that the gospel will do you any good, friend? Look at it, it says here.
That everyone that is bitten when he looketh upon it.
Shall live. Someone one time says, ah, you can look at the Lord Jesus all day and that won't save you.
No, but a look to Christ will save you. A look to Christ, that one who has made sin for you.
Have you ever looked to him? Oh, there's many a boy and many a girl that has looked at pictures of the Lord Jesus and they've never been troubled about their sins. But it says when he's bitten.
In the sin offering it says that when any man, when his sin comes before him, what is he to do? He's to take a lamb, or he's to take an animal and bring it as a sacrifice.
When he.
When he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived. Let's look on it. Our chapter, John 3.
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, Even so must the Son of Man be lifted up. Oh, why was it that the Moses had to do it all? Because of the justice of God.
You know, God could not pass the Sinner by. No, He had to demand that that sin be paid for if he was ever just in justifying the Sinner. And so God has devised a means.
To save his banished though, so that they be not expelled from him, God has devised the means, says.
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. That whosoever believeth in him, whosoever. Ah, friend, do you want a wider invitation? It's impossible. It's impossible. You might say to yourself, well, I've never been deeply enough convicted of my sins. I've never seen my sins fully as God has seen them.
Oh my friend, it doesn't say that. It says that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 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, for God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world.
But that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned, but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
There was one time in Ireland a man.
Who came from a gospel meeting and he wasn't very educated and he stopped by the side of the road and he asked a schoolboy, he says.
What does that word whosoever mean?
And the schoolboy says.
Why? It just means you or me or anybody that wants.
The man, he rejoiced.
You know, when I was a boy, I was in a tent meeting, I was 13 years old and the man said if there was never a time in your life when you put your trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.
You're lost.
Do you know? I trembled in my seat.
00:50:03
I didn't know what to do and I repeated that verse John 316 over and over.
To myself.
You know, I got no light and I was most miserable.
But at the end of the meeting there was that man, that brother quoted that verse.
For God so loved the world.
That he gave his only begotten Son.
There's two parts of John 316.
Oh, God loved me. Can I tell why he loved me?
No, no.
No, nobody can tell why God should set his love on a person.
But he says he did. I believed him, but he did something about it. He gave his only begotten Son, the darling of his bosom, the one who could cry out. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
You know, in the Old Testament, the man who brought the offering had to kill the offering.
Aw, it was my sins that brought the Lord Jesus to die on Calvary's tree for me.
That he gave his only begotten Son.
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Oh, I saw that God loved me, that He gave the Lord Jesus Christ to die for me, and that all I had to do was trust in Him. And I didn't need any urging either.
Because I left the tent meeting that night. I said, Mama, you know, if I was never saved before, I'm saved. No, because Jesus died for me. Oh, my friend, grace has to be given you tonight because Jesus died for you and for no other reason.
Grace must be given you because Jesus died for you and for no other reason.
Two more verses.
Here we have 4 facts presented to us.
For unalterable facts. And you know a fact is something that you can **** your head against, but you can't change it.
You can do anything you want to do with the fact, but it doesn't change it.
John 335 and 36.
Father loveth the Son.
The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
That's too fast.
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.
Shall we pray?
