00:10 "I heard the voice of the Lord saying
00:13 who shall I send and who will go for us. 00:17 Then I said here am I. Send me." 00:34 Three Angels Broadcasting Network 00:36 and the South England Conference 00:38 present London 2016. 00:44 Last night, campaign speaker Pastor John Lomacang 00:49 made an appeal to us 00:50 and he invited us not to miss tonight's message. 00:55 In fact, he said that a few times so it's good, 00:58 this evening that we have responded to that appeal 01:01 and we are here this evening to hear another message. 01:06 In fact, last night's message was washing away the past, 01:10 washing away the sins of our past, 01:12 and we were reminded that regardless of our past 01:17 and regardless of the greatness of the sins of the past, 01:22 we serve an even greater Savior who is willing to forgive 01:27 and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 01:32 And when the enemy tries to remind you of your past, 01:34 what do we do? 01:36 Remind him of his future. 01:40 And so this evening, 01:42 we will be hearing another message, 01:45 part two of following on from last night's message 01:49 on get connected, getting connected. 01:52 May God truly bless us as we hear the word 01:56 that comes to us tonight. 01:58 Before he also does have a word of welcome 02:02 as we know these messages are streamed live 02:05 throughout the world 02:06 and we have someone by the name of Andrew Whittaker 02:10 who was watching from New Hazelton in Canada. 02:15 And he wrote in to say what a program. 02:18 "I'm so blessed to hear these messages. 02:21 We are taking the message to the ends of the world. 02:26 Soon Jesus will return." 02:28 And if there's anyone else watching around the world 02:31 and you want to give your greetings, 02:32 then you can do so via the website 02:34 and we can mention your name as well. 02:38 We're going to ask him to inspire us once again 02:41 as he plays the theme of his message 02:46 is "He Touched Me." 03:04 I was shackled by a heavy 03:10 Burden 03:15 Beneath a load of guilt 03:20 And shame 03:27 But then the hand of Jesus 03:33 Touched me 03:38 And now I am no longer 03:44 The same 03:50 For He touched me 03:53 Oh, He touched me 04:01 And oh, the joy 04:06 That floods my soul 04:12 For something happened 04:17 And now I know 04:23 Jesus touched me 04:27 And made 04:30 Me whole 04:38 Now since I met 04:41 This blessed Savior 04:47 And since He's cleansed and made 04:52 Me whole 04:57 I will never cease 05:02 To praise Him 05:06 I plan shout it while eternity rolls... 05:14 Sing it with me if you know it. 05:16 He touched me 05:19 Oh, He touched me 05:26 And oh, the joy 05:31 That floods my soul 05:37 Something wonderful happened 05:41 And now I know 05:47 He touched me 05:50 And made 05:54 Me whole 06:00 He touched me 06:04 Jesus touched me 06:09 And made 06:13 Me whole 06:25 Amen. 06:32 Can we say amen again? Amen. 06:36 I'm glad he invited us to sing 06:38 'cause I was singing with you already. 06:40 What a beautiful song. 06:41 Wasn't that a wonderful song? Yes. 06:46 Wasn't that a wonderful song? Yes. 06:49 I knew you were here 06:51 but maybe you just didn't hear me. 06:53 The message is clear. 06:55 The difference between who we are and who we can be 06:59 is a touch from Jesus. 07:02 Thank you, Tim. 07:04 I might even have us join again 07:06 and sing that on the end together, 07:07 'cause that's a beautiful message. 07:09 The message and song really connects to the message 07:12 from God's word tonight. 07:15 I'd like to invite you to bow your heads with me 07:17 as we go and open God's word together. 07:20 Loving Father in Heaven, this is Your opportunity. 07:23 I am Your servant. We are Your people. 07:26 Send your Holy Spirit. 07:28 In Jesus' name I pray. Amen. 07:33 I remember when I got my first desktop computer, 07:37 you know, back then, when... 07:42 the Apple computer wasn't even a thought, 07:46 back then when the characters on the screen were small 07:49 and almost unrecognizable. 07:52 If you are a PC user, 07:53 this is not meant to be offensive to you at all 07:57 but back when the DOS, 08:00 which is an abbreviation for the disk operating system, 08:03 was the most common thing that is found on a desktop 08:08 and when you turned your computer on, 08:11 you just saw the small little blinking light 08:14 just sitting there. 08:16 We were living up in the mountains 08:18 of Northern California when my wife told me 08:21 to make decision between keeping my motorcycle 08:24 and buying a computer. 08:25 And I wanted both, but she said, 08:27 "Now which one do you think you will live longer with?" 08:30 Ah, okay, I can't argue with that. 08:32 I'm still alive today. 08:34 I got rid of my motorcycle 08:35 but I've had many computers since then. 08:37 And so I took this computer out of the box, 08:39 I was so excited, I connected the keyboard to the tower, 08:45 I connected the monitor to the tower, 08:49 I made all the connections that I needed to make 08:51 and I reached up and pressed the power button 08:55 and nothing happened. 08:58 And I took out the manual and I said, 08:59 "Now that seems to be pretty simple 09:02 what could be the problem. 09:03 So I went through the pages how to connect the monitor, 09:06 yeah, that's it. 09:07 Connect the... Yeah, that's it." 09:09 Pressed the button again and nothing happened. 09:13 And after about a few attempts, 09:16 I decided to call the company that I bought the computer from 09:20 because in my mind I thought to myself, 09:22 "How dare they sell me a dead computer?" 09:26 And I got tech support, it was a very nice lady, 09:30 she said, "Sir, what seems to be the problem?" 09:31 I said, "Well, this computer you sent me 09:34 just doesn't work. 09:35 I mean, it just doesn't work. That's the simple fact. 09:37 I connected everything, it just doesn't work." 09:39 I was kind of flabbergasted, to say another word, 09:41 I was frustrated. 09:43 And she said, "Sir, did you plug it in?" 09:50 Did I plug it in? Hold on. 09:53 And I got on my knees. 09:56 I journeyed under the desk 09:58 only to find out I didn't plug it in. 10:03 Well, I came back on the phone with ever so sheepish a voice 10:07 and said it in small soft apologetic tone, 10:11 "Thank you," and hung up the phone. 10:16 And I came to discover 10:18 the Lord in my early days of ministry... 10:20 That was my first solo Church I got. 10:24 My Church was so small 10:26 that if you came in on a Sabbath morning 10:28 during Church service, 10:29 I say this not to be offensive or to be too descriptive 10:32 but you can take a shotgun and shoot out 10:35 on the congregation and hit no-one. 10:38 I have a picture to prove that. 10:40 I keep saying to my wife, 10:41 "I've got to carry that picture with me 10:43 because when I make that statement 10:45 people don't believe it." 10:46 It was empty. 10:48 But by God's grace, 10:49 when we left there 22 months later, 10:51 it was standing room only. 10:54 With all my black here and all my enthusiasm, 10:57 I preach my heart out. 10:59 I said things I shouldn't have said 11:02 and the members God gave me 11:04 really helped file me to who I am today. 11:07 But I discovered something very powerful 11:10 that you can have the most beautiful exterior, 11:14 you can look so amazingly polished 11:17 but unless you get connected to Jesus, 11:19 there is no power to do anything in your life. 11:24 I've learned, so from now on, 11:26 the first thing I do before I complain to tech support 11:29 is I check to see if I'm connected to the power. 11:32 Let me suggest to you, 11:33 if you've been coming from night to night, 11:34 you know that in order for us to reflect the glory of God 11:38 for Jesus to be seen in our lives, 11:41 for our light to be able to shine, 11:44 we've got to get connected to Jesus. 11:46 What do you say? Amen. 11:47 John 15:5, Jesus made it very clear. 11:50 Look at what he says in His word. 11:52 He says, together let's read this, 11:54 "I am the vine, you are the branches. 11:58 He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears," what, 12:03 "much fruit." 12:04 Together "For without Me, you can do," how much, 12:08 "absolutely nothing." 12:10 I've seen polished individuals struggle with trying to reflect 12:15 and reveal the character of Jesus. 12:18 And they've said to me, 12:19 "Pastor, I've been trying really, really hard. 12:22 What's wrong?" 12:23 I said, "You're not connected." They say, "What do you mean? 12:25 I've been in church all my life." 12:26 I said, "Being in the building does not mean you're in Jesus. 12:29 You've got to get connected 12:31 to the source that knows absolutely no failure." 12:34 That's why belief in Jesus and following Jesus 12:37 requires an action. 12:38 Following Jesus is a lot more than an intellectual idea, 12:42 an intellectual exercise. 12:44 Jesus, following Him begins, what word did I just say? 12:49 Begins. What did I just say? 12:52 Begins a life transforming journey. 12:57 That's what tonight is all about. 12:59 You see, last night was about washing away the past. 13:02 When the past is gone, how do we begin where we are? 13:06 How do we start to move in a different direction, 13:10 think different thoughts, live a different life, 13:13 do different things, have different desires? 13:18 You see, baptism is simply a symbol 13:20 of disconnecting the old power 13:23 and connecting to the new power. 13:26 It is also the act of putting Adam's nature to death. 13:29 As long as Adam's nature remains alive, 13:32 we will always do what we have always done. 13:36 Let me say that again. 13:39 As long as Adam's nature remains alive, 13:42 for you to understand what I mean by Adam's nature, 13:44 when we are born, we are born in sin, 13:48 shapened in iniquity. 13:50 As lovely as we look on the outside, 13:52 unless Jesus moves in, we are all destined to die. 13:57 It's just a simple fact. 13:59 There's only two destinations at the end of this journey 14:03 and I said this a few nights ago, 14:04 there's a smoking seat and there's non-smoking seat. 14:09 I wanna be in the non-smoking one, 14:10 what about you? 14:13 There is the destruction of the fires of hell 14:17 and there are the golden streets of heaven. 14:19 I wanna walk on the golden streets of heaven, 14:22 what about you? 14:24 But I want you to understand 14:25 is when you go from the old life 14:28 and you accept Jesus to do justification, 14:31 that means, as I said last night, 14:32 that is just as if I had never sinned. 14:35 But now all of a sudden, 14:37 this sinful past that has been washed away 14:40 has to be replaced with a new life. 14:42 I asked somebody the question once, 14:44 matter of fact, a family member, 14:47 I said to him, 14:48 he was struggling with a lot of things, 14:50 he's still struggling, he's praying, 14:52 and oftentimes he leans more toward his human nature, 14:55 but I asked him the question, I said, 14:57 "Can you live under the ocean?" 15:01 He said, "Uncle, what are you asking me? 15:04 I said, "Can you live in the ocean?" 15:06 He said, "Absolutely not." I said, "Yes, you can." 15:09 He said, Well, how is that?" 15:12 I said, "Have you seen deep sea divers before?" 15:14 He said, "Yes." 15:15 I said, "Well, how do they stand at the water?" 15:17 He said, "Well, they get air from somewhere else." 15:19 I said, "That's the point. 15:20 When we enter this new relationship with Christ, 15:23 this new life, we are in an environment 15:27 that is hostile to our old life. 15:31 We enter a realm that we have never been in before. 15:34 It almost leaves us incapacitated 15:37 because we don't know 15:38 how to live in this new environment. 15:41 But if we make the mistake 15:42 of leaning on the old way of doing things, 15:45 we will never survive in this new environment." 15:49 So what has to happen? 15:51 Look at Roman 6:3, 15:52 Adam's nature has to be put to death. 15:55 That's what Baptism is. 15:56 Roman 6:3, the Bible says, "Or do you not know 16:02 that as many of us as were," what, 16:05 "baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his," what, 16:10 "into His death?" 16:12 Now, I'm gonna pose a question 16:13 that I'm gonna answer later on in the message. 16:15 The question is why did Jesus have to die 16:18 since He never sinned? 16:21 Why did he have to die since he never sinned? 16:24 Hold on to that. 16:25 I'm gonna answer that later on in the message. 16:28 One of the things that we have to be very clear about 16:30 is when Jesus came into the world, 16:35 He was very God and very man at the same time. 16:39 Amen. 16:41 But what He did was He could not use any... 16:45 What word did I just say? 16:47 Any of His divinity to live humanity. 16:52 Had He done so, every one of us would have been lost. 16:57 He could not use any of His divinity 17:00 to live His humanity. 17:02 So to prepare Him for that, He had to come 17:05 and face the world and face temptation 17:07 and face difficulty the very same way 17:09 that we had to face difficulty. 17:12 And to do that, He came and He took on 17:14 the nature of Adam after the fall. 17:19 Now tonight, I'm teaching, I'll preach later on. 17:23 He took on the nature of Adam after Adam fell in sin. 17:27 So in order to be our Savior, 17:30 Jesus had to replace Adam. 17:35 Jesus had to be subject to the same power 17:38 that Adam was subject to 17:41 and then He had to overcome in the very same way 17:44 that we have to overcome. 17:47 Are you following me? Say amen. Amen. 17:49 Look at what the Bible says, 2 Corinthians 5:21, 17:53 that's why the Bible says this, "For He made Him, that is, 17:58 God made Him, Jesus, who knew no sin to be," what, 18:04 "to be sin for us, that we might become 18:08 the righteousness of God in Him." 18:11 In other words, Jesus had to come down here 18:13 and put on our garment. 18:16 He had to walk where we walk. 18:17 As you know, we've said until you walk in my shoes, 18:21 you don't understand. 18:22 You heard that phrase before? 18:24 People say until you walk in my shoes, 18:25 don't judge me. 18:27 Until you walk in my shoes, 18:28 you'll never know how difficult it is. 18:30 Well, the fact of the matter is Jesus came... 18:32 This is some good news. 18:34 Jesus came to walk in our shoes. 18:40 Heaven saw the urgency. Heaven saw our condition. 18:45 Look at Galatians 4:4. 18:47 The Bible says, 18:48 "But when the fullness of the time had come, 18:51 there was a time God set, God sent forth His son, 18:55 born of a woman, born under," what, "born under the law." 18:59 Now, let me just... 19:01 I'm really in a teaching mood tonight 19:02 but I wanna, I want you to get this. 19:05 I want the new people to get it. 19:08 I want the old Christians to get it 19:11 'cause if you don't get this, you'll fall into the trap 19:14 when people have bad attitudes in church, 19:16 you'll end up saying that's how she is, amen lights. 19:22 We got some folk that after 30 years of being a Christian 19:26 still live like they never met Jesus. 19:30 And they always say, this brother so and so, 19:33 he always had a bad attitude, just ignore him. 19:36 If it doesn't work for you, how can you expect somebody 19:39 who has not been a Christian to expect him to work for them? 19:43 You got to be able to show the world 19:45 that Jesus can work for you 19:48 for them to want Him to work for them. 19:51 If it ain't work for you, you are bad advertisement. 19:54 You ought to go work for the devil. 19:57 No, don't do that. 19:59 I'll give you some hope tonight. 20:00 Amen, somebody. 20:01 But Jesus came, 20:03 He came in the same nature that Adam came in. 20:06 He was born of a woman, took on the human flesh. 20:10 That's what happens when a woman births a child, 20:12 he has human flesh. 20:13 He was born under the law, now when people read that, 20:16 they think that, "Well, was He born 20:18 under the 10 commandants 20:19 or was He born under the ceremonial law." 20:21 While He was born under both, he was born underneath her. 20:27 You got to think tonight. 20:29 When Jesus was born, 20:30 the 10 commandments was in effect 20:32 and so was the ceremonial law 20:34 but that's not what the scripture means. 20:37 When the Bible says He was born under the law, 20:39 it means He was born under a law 20:42 that controlled our nature. 20:45 He was born with a nature 20:47 that if He did not trust in His heavenly Father 20:50 for deliverance, He would have fallen just like Adam. 20:55 That's what He prayed so often. 20:57 We're talking about that on Friday. 20:59 Can you hear me now, 21:00 what it means to pray for power and strength? 21:05 That's why He spent time alone. 21:07 That's why He sweated drops of blood, 21:11 that's why the devil dogged His footsteps. 21:14 The devil would have never sought to tempt Jesus 21:17 if He couldn't sin. 21:21 He would never have been maligned 21:23 if He did not have the possibility 21:26 of losing His temper. 21:30 The Pharisees and scribes would have never said 21:32 what they did to Him 21:34 if they did not think that they could push Him 21:37 over the edge. 21:40 But I'm here to tell you tonight 21:42 that Jesus can keep you 21:43 from being pushed over the edge, 21:46 he can keep you from losing your mind in church, 21:50 saying things you shouldn't say, 21:52 doing things you shouldn't do, going places you should not go. 21:56 But so often we think 21:57 that this Christian life is a second chance 22:00 to do what we could not do the first time. 22:02 But the reality of it is, 22:04 when Jesus was born under the law of sin, 22:07 the law of sin is just as effective as gravity. 22:12 You don't think it's effective? 22:14 If I dropped, if I let go of this mike, 22:16 what's gonna happen? 22:18 How do you know that? 22:20 Because gravity says if you let it go, 22:22 I'm pulling it down. 22:24 The law of sin pulls us down. 22:28 That's why when Jesus comes back, 22:29 we're not going down, we're going up. 22:30 Amen, somebody. Amen. 22:32 He's gonna suspend the law of gravity 22:34 on behalf of his children. 22:36 But the law of sin pulls us down 22:38 in that natural direction, 22:39 which means the law of sin is a controlling law. 22:45 That's why we do what we do. 22:47 But don't miss this next point. 22:51 We are first sinners by nature 22:54 before we are sinners by action. 22:59 I want you to get that. 23:02 You see, when you see a little baby in the crib, 23:05 let me use a very stark illustration. 23:09 When Adolf Hitler was born, I doubt that his mother said, 23:14 "Oh, I can't wait until the day he kills six million Jews." 23:21 Now that's an amazing illustration. 23:24 I'm sure she should did not look 23:25 in the face of her cute little baby boy 23:28 and think that he would be listed 23:30 among one of the worst tyrants that ever lived. 23:34 But why did he get that way 23:36 because his nature was never curbed. 23:38 His nature was never broken, he lived in that nature 23:43 that as one doctor said, 23:44 one of the reasons why God allows babies 23:46 to be born so small is because, he said, 23:49 and this is Dr. Haddon W. Robinson 23:51 in a book called Expository Preaching, 23:53 he said, "One of the reasons why God allows babies 23:55 to be born so small 23:57 is because if they were born at 150 pounds, 24:00 the mother's life will be in danger." 24:04 That's why when that baby cries, 24:06 have you ever heard a baby cry before? 24:08 They can bust your ear drum. Add 149 more pounds to that. 24:15 I mean think about it. 24:16 You try, you miss changing a diaper on a 149-pound baby, 24:21 you see what happens. 24:25 That's an image. What do you think? 24:27 That's something to think about. 24:29 So this nature that we all received 24:32 is a nature that is definitely controlled by law. 24:35 So let me make it even clearer, we are, in fact, 24:39 every day if we don't ask for God to break that power, 24:43 see last night I talked abut being saved 24:45 from the penalty of sin. 24:46 That's what baptism is all about. 24:48 It takes us off of death road and now puts us on a new road, 24:51 which now instead of having to be saved 24:55 from the penalty of sin, we now have to be saved 24:59 from the power of sin. 25:02 Let me ask you the question. 25:03 Is there still sin in the world? 25:06 Is the devil and his angels still alive? 25:08 Have you been tempted 25:10 ever since you've been a Christian? 25:11 Yes. 25:13 Glad you said yes to all three, 25:16 'cause I'm gonna talk about how... 25:18 Thank you, Lord. 25:20 Thank you, Lord, 25:21 that you are not done with us yet. 25:23 Come on, somebody help me out. Amen. 25:29 You see, in order for Jesus to offer us the victory 25:34 over the law of sin, He had to win the victory 25:39 over the law of sin. 25:41 Remember, He was born under that law 25:43 but the good news is every sin that Adam faced, 25:47 Jesus overcame. 25:49 What do you say tonight? 25:50 Every test that we must face, Jesus endured. 25:55 Every temptation that we must meet, 25:58 Jesus met and overcame. 26:03 Somebody might think, "Well, you know, 26:05 did they have marijuana in Jesus' day or crack 26:09 or pornography or strange drugs? 26:13 Did they have that?" 26:14 Temptation only falls into three categories, 26:18 the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, 26:21 and the pride of life. 26:23 Together, the lust of the flesh, 26:26 the lust of the eyes, and the pride of, what, life. 26:29 Eve was tempted only in three areas. 26:31 She saw the tree that was good for food, 26:33 pleasant to the eyes, 26:35 and a tree desirable to make one wise. 26:39 Satan only tempted Jesus in three areas. 26:41 And then Jesus said in I John, 26:43 "All that is in the world is the lust of the flesh, 26:47 the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life." 26:49 All that is in the world. 26:54 Look at Isaiah 53:5, 26:57 even deeper than overcoming everything that we must face, 27:02 Jesus provided a means whereby every sin can be overcome. 27:07 Isaiah 53:5, Bible says, 27:10 "But he was wounded for our, " what, 27:13 "our transgressions, He was bruised for," what, 27:16 "our iniquities; 27:18 The chastisement of our peace was upon Him." 27:22 And what else? 27:23 "By His stripes, we are," what, "healed." 27:27 But look at what is says, verse 6. 27:30 "All we like sheep have," done what, gone astray. 27:35 We have turned, every one, to his own way; 27:39 And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all." 27:44 Let me answer the question in two parts. 27:46 One of the first reasons why Jesus had to die 27:49 is because every sin that has ever been committed, 27:53 ever sin that would ever be committed 27:56 was laid on the shoulders of Jesus. 27:59 Now just to get that, just to allow that to sink in, 28:03 what if you got a call from Scotland Yard 28:07 and your house was surrounded all the police in London 28:10 and they are trying to break into your house. 28:12 And when you go to the front door, 28:14 no, you haven't done anything. 28:16 You say, "Well, what's all the ruckus about?" 28:18 They say, "Ma'am/Sir, we just received a summons 28:24 to put you in jail for 300 years." 28:28 And you say, "For what?" 28:31 And then they say, "The courts have decided 28:33 that every crime ever committed in London, 28:35 now you've got to pay the price for it. 28:38 And you say, "Why? I've done nothing." 28:41 He says, "That's not the point. 28:42 The courts decided to lay the sin and the actions 28:45 and the crime of everybody that ever lived in London 28:48 on you shoulders." 28:50 Now would you go away peacefully and say, 28:54 "Sure, take me away. 28:55 No problem, I'll go." 28:57 Three hundred years, well, I'll do that. 29:02 So do you understand 29:04 why Jesus was led as a lamb to the slaughter, 29:08 yet he did not open his mouth, 29:10 there's only one word I can give you tonight 29:12 that will tell me why He did not argue, love. 29:17 We got to say amen to that one. Amen. 29:19 He loved us so much 29:22 that He looked down the stream of time 29:25 and saw everybody sitting here tonight, 29:27 everybody in your family, every young man born, 29:30 every young girl born, every man, women, child, 29:32 every criminal that will ever commit a crime, 29:34 and he said, "In order for them to be with me one day," 29:37 because the Bible does say 29:39 that he is not willing that any should perish, 29:43 doesn't want anybody to be lost. 29:44 Heaven's got room enough for everybody. 29:46 What do you say? 29:48 Doesn't make any sense to be lost. 29:50 So He saw us and He loved us. 29:53 As the Bible says in Jeremiah, "With an everlasting love." 29:58 And His left for us was so deep, He said, 30:00 "I would rather pay the price and risk my life being at loss 30:06 than possibly ever letting anyone of my children be lost." 30:11 Come on. Stay awake. 30:13 You can't miss this, it's warm but you got to get it. 30:18 1 Peter 2:24 says it this way, 30:21 look at what He did for us, the Bible says, 30:25 "Who Himself..." 30:27 How many people? 30:29 "Himself." What did he do, he what? 30:32 "Bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, 30:39 having died to sins, might live for righteousness 30:44 by whose stripes we were healed." 30:49 You see, Jesus understands our weaknesses. 30:52 He knows what temptation is. 30:54 So when you leave here tonight 30:56 and you lose it on the way home, 30:58 He understands that. 31:00 When you have difficulty in your family, 31:03 when you stumble along the way, the Bible says, 31:05 "If any man sins, He has an advocate with the Father, 31:09 Jesus Christ the righteous." 31:12 Just before the series ends, 31:13 I'm gonna talk about the judgment 31:15 and how you can have confidence in the judgment, 31:17 how you don't have to be afraid at the knowledge 31:21 that Jesus is coming again, 31:23 how you can stand before God and fear nothing 31:26 because you know that everything 31:29 because of His love. 31:30 Let me just insert this 31:32 so you can come back at least the last night. 31:35 Do you know that the courts had been rigged 31:38 in favor of the saints? 31:41 Did you know that? 31:43 Oh, let me tell you the story. 31:45 I was reading the book of Revelation, 31:46 this is not in my notes. 31:48 I was reading in the book of Revelation, 31:51 how in the roman courts they had a jury 31:55 just like we have one today and the criminal was on trial 31:59 and there was a judge 32:00 and there was lawyer or an advocate. 32:02 And when the jury could not come up with a verdict 32:06 as to whether or not the accused was guilty 32:08 or innocent, 32:09 it was left to the accused to decide his or her own fate. 32:16 Now let me ask you the question, 32:18 how afraid would you be if you knew 32:21 that if you were declared guilty by your own hand 32:24 that you'll be hanged the next day, 32:26 how afraid would you be? 32:29 Kind of stay up late at night, would that keep you awake? 32:36 But even worse than that, how afraid would you be 32:39 when the judge says bring the bag. 32:43 And they brought a bag before the court 32:45 and they placed it right in front of the judge 32:47 so that he can have very clear vision of that bag. 32:50 And in that bag were only two stones, 32:53 how many stones did I say? 32:54 Two. A white one and a black one. 32:58 Wait, wait. 33:00 I see some of you know where I'm going. 33:02 And just as the sinner was about to reach his or her hand 33:06 in the bag to decide their fate, 33:11 the lawyer said wait, wait, 33:17 I'm gonna give you a white stone, 33:20 this is a tic-tac. 33:21 I know you can't see it. 33:23 If I was thinking I had a big old white stone up here. 33:26 The lawyer said, 33:28 "Wait, I'm gonna give you a white stone 33:32 and a new name is gonna be on it." 33:34 So before you put your hand in the bag, 33:36 hide that stone in your fist. 33:39 So when you put your hand in the bag, 33:42 you already got a stone that's gonna exonerate you. 33:45 Come on, somebody say Amen. Amen. 33:46 You already have a stone 33:48 that's gonna declare you innocent and free. 33:52 How confidently would you put your... 33:55 The judge would be looking at you saying, "What? 33:57 Why does she look so comfortable? 34:00 Why is he not perspiring? 34:01 Why is he not vibrating with fear?" 34:05 That's why the Bible says, "If any mans sins, 34:07 he has an advocate with the Father, 34:09 Jesus Christ the righteous." 34:11 Amen. 34:13 He doesn't wait for you to decide your fate, 34:15 he rigs the court in favor of the saints. 34:17 Daniel 7, persecution was going on but the Bible says 34:22 the time came for the saints to judge the world 34:25 and judgment was made in favor of the saints. 34:29 Hallelujah! Amen. 34:31 So I'm not fearful tonight. 34:32 When I kneel at my bed 34:34 and I ask for God to forgive me, 34:35 I've got an advocate who loves me 34:37 greater than Satan can hate me. 34:43 Satan couldn't hate me more than Jesus could love me. 34:47 He couldn't tempt me greater than God could deliver me. 34:51 That's why the Bible says in Hebrews 4:15, 34:54 he understands, 34:55 "For we do not have a High Priest 34:58 who cannot sympathize 35:00 with our weaknesses, but was in..." 35:02 How many points, church? 35:03 "All points tempted as we are, yet without sin." 35:10 If you want to read that story I just alluded to, 35:12 it's in Revelation 3:17. 35:14 Let me even go a step further 35:16 because that the picture I just painted to you 35:18 made it look like the judge was here 35:20 and the lawyer was here. 35:22 But did you not know this is some serious stuff. 35:27 Did you not know that in the judgment, 35:32 the judge and the lawyer is Jesus. 35:35 Amen. 35:38 Amen somebody. Amen. 35:39 The judge and the lawyer are Jesus... 35:44 is Jesus. 35:45 That may sound grammatically incorrect 35:47 but they're one person. 35:48 The judge who judges our lives and the one who vindicates us 35:52 by His righteousness is the same Man. 35:55 Hallelujah! Now what happen to my hanky? 36:00 It's good stuff. 36:01 I didn't come to tell you how bad you are. 36:02 You already know that. 36:07 Amen? Amen. 36:09 I don't want you to confess to me, 36:10 you better confess to your heavenly Father, 36:11 I can't do diddly for you. 36:15 So allow me to answer the question 36:16 why did Jesus have to die? 36:18 Roman 6:7, the Bible says, 36:22 "For he who has died has been freed from sin." 36:28 When Jesus died, 36:30 not only did He take the sins of the whole world on Him 36:33 but the devil knew 36:36 that when Jesus approached that cross, 36:39 He was not just taking our sins, 36:41 he was taking Adam's nature, 36:43 the very thing that devil did not want to die, 36:46 that nature that is controlling as controlling as gravity is, 36:50 He took the nature of Adam. 36:51 That's what the devil tried to defeat Him before the cross. 36:55 That's why he tried to defeat Him 36:56 even on the cross. 36:58 He tried to get Christ to drink alcohol 37:00 even on the cross. 37:01 He knew that if I could get Him to sin 37:03 before He closes His eyes, I have won and He lost. 37:08 But I want to tell you tonight, 37:10 as gloomy as the cross was, even in His humanity, 37:14 when He said, "Father, if it be Thy will, 37:16 let this cup pass from Me. 37:17 Nevertheless, not My will but Thine be done." 37:20 Jesus approached the cross not because, as they said, 37:24 if You are the Christ why don't You save yourself, 37:26 come on down. 37:27 You know why Jesus didn't come down, 37:29 He could not come down and we go up. 37:34 So He went up and got nailed to the cross 37:39 so we don't have to get nailed to the cross. 37:42 But we do have to die, 37:44 and I'll talk about that in just a moment. 37:46 He faced the death that we should have faced, 37:50 that eternal death, that eternal death 37:52 that is illustrated 37:55 in the fires of hell at the end. 37:57 He knew that for everyone of us that was our eternal 38:00 and final destination, the fires of hell. 38:03 And by the way, let me say something 38:05 that you may not even understand 38:07 but you may not have thought about. 38:09 Do you know Matthew says 38:10 that hell is prepared for the devil and his angels? 38:16 Hell was never prepared for me 38:18 so why am I gonna try to break into the devil's party. 38:22 Amen. Amen. 38:23 He is gonna die. 38:25 I don't wanna die with him, doesn't make any sense. 38:29 But the devil as a kamikaze who knows he has a short time 38:33 because of his hatred for Christ 38:35 and his hatred for the woman, the church, 38:37 and his hatred for us, 38:39 he wants us to join him in his final destruction party. 38:43 But by God's grace, I ain't gonna be there, 38:46 what about you? 38:48 I tell you, I love it when Jesus Christ came. 38:51 That's why baptism is so widely important. 38:53 Look at Roman 6:3, 4. 38:57 Roman 6:3, 4, the Bible says, 39:02 "Do you not know that as many of us as were baptized 39:08 into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?" 39:11 That's that death of Adam. 39:13 "Therefore we were buried with Him 39:16 through baptism into death." 39:18 And here's the good news. 39:20 "That just as Christ was raised from the dead 39:22 by the glory of the Father, 39:25 even so we also should walk in the..." 39:31 What, church? 39:32 "Newness of life." 39:34 The process of us being set free 39:37 is Adam's nature is put to death. 39:38 He is drowned. 39:42 Then he is buried. 39:44 And I tell you what, I've never been to a cemetery 39:48 where a buried man followed me home. 39:52 He better not. 39:54 Some of you West Indians still think that. 40:00 I had a West Indian elder in California 40:03 and he said to me, "When you come to my house, 40:05 knock three times." 40:06 I said, "Why?" 40:07 He said, "Because the dead people knocked twice." 40:10 I said, "You want to box, you know." 40:14 So I went and knocked twice just to irritate him. 40:18 He wouldn't open the door. I said, "Okay." 40:22 He said, "Pastor, was that you?" 40:23 He said, "Didn't I tell you to knock three times." 40:25 I said, "You're an Adventist, 40:26 you know that the dead don't know anything. 40:28 Why you still believe in that foolishness?" 40:29 And then I told him, I said, 40:31 "Do you know that the safest place 40:32 in this city is the cemetery." 40:34 He said, "You could sleep in there, not me." 40:39 When Jesus went to the cross, Adam was nailed there. 40:49 When Jesus rose from the grave, 40:53 Adam stayed in the grave, and Jesus came forth 40:59 to extend to everyone of us a new life 41:02 that we could never have had 41:05 outside of the provision of His righteousness alone. 41:10 That's why when we accept Christ, 41:12 notice Romans 8:1-2, 41:13 that's why when we accept Jesus and we begin to walk with Him, 41:17 notice how the Bible describes this. 41:20 Romans 8:1-2, notice what it says, 41:24 "There is therefore together now no condemnation 41:29 to those who are in Christ Jesus, 41:33 who do not walk according to the flesh." 41:36 That's that all Adam. 41:37 "But according to the," what, Spirit. 41:39 For the law of the Spirit of life 41:42 in Christ Jesus 41:44 has made me free from the law of sin and death." 41:48 And by the way when you read that, 41:50 the law of sin and death is not the 10 commandments. 41:55 It is that Adam's nature. 41:57 It is that nature that forever controls us, 42:00 that nature that if we leave it unchecked, 42:03 if we leave that nature to do what it wants to do, 42:05 it'll make the... 42:09 It'll make a fool out of us, 42:13 it'll make us do things 42:15 that our minds could never have imagined. 42:17 I've seen people that have made attempts 42:19 to live this life and have failed 42:21 over and over and over again. 42:24 And by the way, let me make it even make it clearer, 42:26 when you become a Christian, this is not a second chance 42:28 to do what you could not do the first time. 42:33 So when you're baptized, 42:35 that means you are dying with Jesus. 42:39 To not be baptized means you're dying without Him 42:43 because there's got to be death somewhere. 42:44 You know why? 42:46 Because the wages of sin is what? 42:48 Death. So somebody's got to die. 42:50 I like it a whole lot better if my loving savior says, 42:53 "John, let me die in your half, 42:56 so you don't have to die in your half. 43:00 Let me take the persecution that belongs to you 43:04 and I'll give you the joy and righteousness 43:07 that belongs to me." 43:09 What a Lord? What a Savior? 43:12 Romans 6:5-6... 43:19 I'm starting to hate the clock by the way. 43:25 Romans 6:5, 43:27 "For if we have been united together 43:29 in the likeness of His," what, death." 43:32 What's the next word? Certainly. 43:34 What's that word? Certainly. 43:35 "Certainly," of a certain, "we also shall be 43:39 in the likeness of His resurrection, 43:42 knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, 43:48 that the body of sin might be done away 43:52 that we should no longer be slaves to sin." 43:59 I told that to my mother. 44:01 When I met my mother, she was an alcoholic. 44:03 Smoked two to three packs of cigarettes a day. 44:06 I'll tell you the story at the end. 44:12 I got it started off, I'll finish it at the end. 44:16 "That we should no longer be slaves to sin." 44:19 Sin is not only a law 44:22 but it is an enslaving power. 44:26 Have you seen people 44:28 that cannot free themselves from sin? 44:31 Have you seen them in London? 44:36 They're on the streets. 44:37 Their lives look worn and tattered. 44:39 The scent of sin is all around them. 44:42 But I'm gonna say tonight, no matter how bad they look, 44:45 He is able to save to the uttermost. 44:48 Those who come unto God through Him, 44:50 seeing that He ever liveth to make intercession for us, 44:53 there is no pit too deep that Jesus cannot reach down 44:57 and pull us out of it. 44:59 There's no sin too dark that He cannot save us from. 45:02 There is no challenge so great 45:04 that Jesus cannot bring us victory over that sin. 45:09 That's why he says in I John 1:9 these words, 45:13 "If we confess our sins, he is..." 45:15 What, church? 45:16 "Faithful and just to forgive us our sins." 45:18 And to do what else? 45:20 Cleanse us from most unrighteousness. 45:23 How much unrighteousness? All. 45:25 Say all. All. 45:28 Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. 45:31 And I told you last night, when He cleanses us, 45:36 He not only cleanses us but He gives us a new name, 45:39 Revelation 3:17, 45:40 "I'll give you a white stone with a new name on it." 45:43 Tim, He gives us anonymity. 45:45 That's why when He met Saul, He changed Saul 45:48 and gave him a new name called Paul. 45:50 When the Christians of the New Testament church 45:52 saw him, they said, "Wait a minute, 45:53 isn't that Saul who persecutes?" 45:55 "No, I'm Paul who proclaims." 46:00 He said to Peter the man 46:01 who couldn't get his act together, 46:03 the man whose mouth was slower than his mind, 46:06 who always denied His Lord. 46:08 He said, "Lord, I'll follow you all the way to the cross. 46:10 But when they said, "What's your testimony?" 46:12 He said, "I don't even know that man." 46:15 And he cursed to prove his point. 46:17 And Jesus said, "When you are converted, 46:20 strengthen the brethren." 46:21 Do you know who preached on the day of Pentecost? 46:23 Impetuous Peter. 46:25 The Lord finally got his mind 46:27 and his mouth to be synchronized. 46:28 Amen somebody. Amen. 46:29 Some of us are just as messed up as Peter. 46:32 Then there were the sons of thunder, 46:33 James and John, they were loud. 46:35 You know anybody that's loud? 46:37 Don't look around. 46:39 Some of you looking over your shoulder. 46:41 Loud. 46:42 Then there are some people that just don't have any faith 46:44 like doubting Thomas. 46:45 There it is, every day with Jesus. 46:47 He still doubted the capacity and the ability of Christ. 46:51 And Jesus said him, 46:53 "Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe." 46:54 Thomas, you need help. 46:56 That's why Thomas is not mentioned very much 46:59 in the proclamation. 47:00 He was still working on his faith thing. 47:02 But I wanna tell you this, when Jesus comes, 47:04 Thomas will be there. 47:06 He can fix anything that's crooked. 47:09 I'll tell you, friends, baptism is the ceremony 47:11 that signifies the crucifixion of Adam. 47:14 Baptism is the means whereby Adam's nature 47:16 is put to death forever. 47:18 That's why Romans 6:14 says it this way. 47:22 We always mess this scripture up. 47:23 I'm always upset when pastors twist this 47:25 to mean what it doesn't mean. 47:28 "For sin shall not have dominion over you, 47:34 for you are not under law but under," what? 47:36 Grace. 47:38 The law that Adam was under, 47:40 the law of sin that Jesus was born under, 47:44 that very sin nature that controlled Adam 47:47 after he yielded to Satan's suggestions, 47:51 that very sin that condemned everyone born after Adam, 47:54 that was the law that all of us are under 47:58 until Jesus pulls us 48:01 by His grace from under that law. 48:03 What do you say? Amen. 48:05 That's called justification. 48:06 He takes us off of death row, 48:08 which means we are no longer under that, 48:10 we are under grace, 48:12 for by grace are you saved through faith 48:15 and that not of yourselves, it is a gift of God, 48:18 not a work lest any man should boast. 48:19 In other words, you couldn't save yourself. 48:22 It's a divine act to save us. 48:24 Under law, another phrase for under means 48:27 dominion or power or control 48:29 or domination or command or authority. 48:31 In other words, 48:33 when you surrender your life to Christ through baptism, 48:34 the power of sin is broken, 48:36 Jesus is the power that moves in then. 48:40 The control of sin is removed. 48:42 Jesus moves in and takes control. 48:46 Sin no longer dominates you. 48:47 Jesus is the one now calling the shots. 48:50 Sin no longer commands you. 48:52 Somebody told me just a few weeks ago, 48:54 I was sitting down with a young man 48:55 that was fighting with sexual sin for 35 years. 48:58 He described to my wife and I how he would sit, 49:01 he said, "This was a struggle. 49:03 I've been baptized three times." 49:07 Came to my house and said, "Pastor, I want to tell you. 49:10 And, sister Angela, what I've been struggling with. 49:13 He said, "I have been struggling with sexual impurity 49:16 for 35 years. 49:19 Since I was a five-year-old, I was molested. 49:23 And sexual sin was my entire life." 49:27 He said, "Let me tell you how bad it was. 49:29 When I began to pray I was in my hotel room 49:32 and I was shaking like a man on drugs 49:35 because I can hear the pornography calling me. 49:40 It was fighting against me 49:41 and I was crying out in the pain of this authority 49:45 that dominated, that commanded, that controlled me. 49:48 And I was saying, Lord Jesus, save me." 49:53 You see, he didn't know what it's like 49:55 to fight with that. 49:56 He said, "But I kept on praying, 49:57 I kept on praying and I've come over here to tell you 50:00 that now when I walk past a woman, 50:02 I don't even see her no more. 50:06 Don't even phase me." 50:08 He said, "For the first time, I could love my wife 50:11 as a natural man should be able to 50:15 because that power has been broken." 50:16 Amen somebody. Amen. 50:18 There's no drug that can bind you 50:19 that Jesus cannot free you from. 50:22 The power is broken, the control is removed, 50:25 it no longer dominates, it no longer commands, 50:27 it no longer has authority, 50:28 Jesus is the one with the authority. 50:30 That's why He says in Matthew 28:18-19 50:33 these words. 50:34 He declared His status when He rose up from the grave, 50:37 Jesus said "And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, 50:41 'All authority...' 50:42 " How much authority, church?" 50:44 "'All authority has been give to Me 50:45 in heaven and on earth. 50:47 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, 50:50 baptizing them in the name of authority, 50:53 in the name of the Father and of the Son 50:56 and of the Holy Spirit.'" 50:58 That's the only authority. 51:00 Some people argue, 51:01 "Well, we should Baptize in the name of Jesus." 51:03 Let me tell you what it means when it says 51:04 in the name of the Greek word 51:05 there is dunamis, the authority of. 51:08 The one that devil here, God or Jesus or the Holy Spirit, 51:11 he's afraid of all three because he's in authority. 51:14 When somebody knocks on your door where a uniform, 51:16 you say, "Who are you here? 51:18 Who are you?" "I am a police officer. 51:20 I am under the authority of the Police of London." 51:23 He mentions his authority. 51:25 The authority of heaven is greater and more powerful 51:28 and more commanding 51:29 than the authority of hell will be ever be. 51:31 Praise God for that. 51:33 So now... 51:38 question is, baptized, 51:42 since who we were has died, 51:47 how could who we need to become happen? 51:53 Since who he were has died, 51:55 how do we become who we can be? 52:01 There was a power that held you there. 52:06 But there's a power that's needs to be able 52:07 to keep you here 52:11 because once you're emptied of that old sinful nature, 52:15 you've got to be filled with a new nature 52:17 so that devil doesn't come back in, 52:21 'cause I wanna tell you this and you might know this, 52:24 those of you that may have been a victim of recidivism, 52:27 that means repeat offenders, 52:29 everybody has been a repeat offender, 52:31 you have sinned more than once. 52:32 Come on somebody, confess it. 52:36 Bu the reason why that often happens with impunity, 52:39 and what I mean by that is some people get to the point 52:41 where they don't really care anymore, 52:42 they just keep on sinning 52:43 because they think there's no hope. 52:45 They say, I've been trying, I've been trying. 52:47 And that's just the problem, you've been trying. 52:50 So how do you get to become who God envisioned you to be? 52:54 Galatians 2:20, the Bible says, 52:59 "I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless..." 53:04 What happens? 53:05 "I live, yet not I, but Christ lives in me 53:09 and the life which I now live in the flesh 53:13 I live by the faith 53:15 in the son of God who loved me..." 53:17 And did what, friends? 53:18 "Gave Himself for me." 53:22 Amen somebody. Amen. 53:24 Christ liveth where? In me. 53:26 Say in me. In me. 53:28 In order for you to be victorious every day, 53:30 you got to have the power of Christ in you, 53:32 the power to deliver you from the power of sin. 53:35 It's a constant struggle, two powers, 53:37 but I wanna tell you, 53:38 the power of God is far greater than the power of the evil one. 53:42 That's why the demons, when they face the disciples, 53:44 when they faced Jesus, one of the demons said, 53:47 "Have you come to torment me before my time." 53:50 They know the name of Jesus. 53:53 There are no atheists, by the way, 53:56 among the evil angels, I wanna just say that. 53:59 Even the devil believes. 54:01 He's a believer but he just does not believe 54:03 that he wants the righteousness of Jesus. 54:05 He is too far gone. 54:06 But let me make an illustration before I close tonight. 54:09 And I wanna tell you, 54:11 pastor introduced tonight's sermon as part two, 54:13 let me introduce Friday's sermon as part three. 54:17 I said to my wife today, 54:19 "Honey, I used to have six page sermons. 54:21 Let me cut it down to five pages 54:24 'cause I can't get through six pages 54:26 'cause I got to make it clear." 54:28 I wanna confess tonight, I only got through three pages, 54:32 I got two more left. 54:34 But if it's clear, that's all that matters. 54:36 You mind saying amen to that. Amen. 54:38 Now Christ in you, somebody gave me a glove, 54:42 it's a nice leather glove. 54:45 I only got one hand. 54:46 It's a Thinsulate, 40 grams, insulation. 54:50 This is you... 54:54 and here's the microphone. 54:58 This is you. Here is the microphone. 55:01 I'm going to say to you, pick up that microphone, 55:03 pick it up. Go ahead, pick it up. 55:06 You've got five fingers, pick it up. 55:10 Go ahead and pick it up. 55:12 Pick it up. 55:15 Let me check, I got five fingers, 55:17 you have five. 55:19 What's the problem pick it up? 55:24 I think they sold me a defective glove, 55:25 it don't do nothing. 55:28 Don't know why I have bought it. 55:30 Glad I didn't but you know what? 55:32 That's the sinner's life without Jesus on the inside. 55:36 Without Me, you can do... 55:38 Nothing. 55:39 Without Me, you can do nothing. 55:41 Say to your neighbor, "You can't do nothing." 55:43 You can fix it grammatically if you'd like to. 55:46 The fact of the matter is 55:47 until Jesus comes in on the inside, 55:50 here it is, are you ready? 55:52 Clean glove that's justified, clean, 55:56 no spots on this thing, smells really good, 55:59 but now I'm going to sanctify it. 56:00 Jesus' gonna move in, He's moving in, He's coming in. 56:05 Oh, he's coming in. 56:07 Yes, He is. Oh, yes He is. 56:10 Pick it up. All right. 56:12 Amen. 56:14 I can do all things through Christ who does, what, 56:18 strengthens me. 56:19 Tim, get to the piano. 56:21 Somebody tonight wants the power of Jesus to move in. 56:25 You've been tired, He wants to touch you. 56:30 See, you can be right here 56:32 but if you don't receive the touch of Jesus, 56:34 ain't no power on the inside. 56:36 I'm gonna ask tonight, 56:37 I'm gonna be very straight forward. 56:38 Could you give me one of those cards, young lady... 56:40 young man, sorry. 56:41 Thank you. 56:45 You want Jesus to touch you tonight 56:47 to make a difference in your life, 56:48 how many of you know that you need the power on the inside? 56:51 Come on somebody. Some of you don't know it. 56:55 Maybe you don't want to admit it publicly. 56:56 Let me ask you a question again. 56:58 How many of you know you need the power of Jesus 57:00 on the inside to make a difference? 57:03 So tonight, I'm opening the doors of this church, 57:06 don't have a whole lot of time to tell you about heaven, 57:10 we'll talk about that in another night. 57:13 But tonight, somebody wants to say, Pastor John, 57:15 Lord Jesus, You have done so much for me 57:20 that it doesn't make sense for me not to accept the fact 57:24 that You wanna move into my life 57:25 and make a difference. 57:27 If there's somebody here tonight 57:28 that wants that difference, 57:30 I'm opening the doors of the church tonight 57:32 to give you that opportunity. 57:33 If you wanna stand and say, I want you to pray for me 57:37 that I can have Jesus to give me the power 57:41 to live a victorious life, 57:42 I want Jesus to move inside of my heart. 57:46 Anybody tonight? 57:48 If that's your desire, just stand up where you are. 57:50 Just stand up. 57:52 Don't ask anybody, they may not need it 57:54 but if you need it, you stand up. 57:57 Now you might have missed what I asked. 57:59 I didn't ask if you want to be a church member, 58:02 I asked if you want Jesus to move inside, 58:07 some of you might say, "Well, I'm already a member." 58:09 I didn't ask you that 58:11 because whether you're a member or not, 58:12 you need Jesus on the inside. 58:14 Amen somebody. So let me ask again. 58:17 Now the reason why 58:19 this question is so widely important is 58:21 if you leave here tonight 58:23 and think you're going to go home and live victoriously 58:25 because you could just really try hard, 58:27 you're gonna fail. 58:29 You cannot do anything that God through His Son Jesus 58:35 is incapable of empowering you to accomplish. 58:38 I'm talking about Jesus. 58:40 I'm talking about the one who never failed, 58:42 the one who knows no failure, 58:45 the one who wants move into our beautiful little lives. 58:48 It may be a torn up and tattered life, 58:50 a mind filled with trails and difficulty, but tonight, 58:53 the Lord wants to make a difference in your life. 58:56 Allow Jesus to reach out and touch your life tonight. |
