Hell is Necessary - Tim Conway (Full Sermon)

good morning I have to admit to you that the topic matter that I am going to bring this morning it is with some trepidation that I I bring it to you even as near as last night I was asking Lord is that really what I should bring I know that it may not be a popular message but it's biblical and I think just in talking with the leaders of your church in the few minutes before the service started today one thing I believe that I've seen in these men already is that you are a church that does desire to be biblical and therefore I have come from San Antonio this morning we've got it sent me here to bring you a message on the doctrine of hell and I have been studying this topic for the last three weeks and it is fearful I thought at first to maybe bring you a message on prayer as I know some of you will go away today with a bad feeling that bad feeling will be connected with the sky from San Antonio I understand that and I may not be the most popular preacher for it one thing that it's true about the doctrine of Hell it will test you it will test you as to whether you are truly a god centered church the doctrine of Hell does test our God centeredness it is a biblical doctrine and it is a good doctrine for us to look at this morning before we dive into it let's pray well father even as I consider myself preaching on this or how I've been reminded how much I deserve this place how much I deserve the torments that I'll describe today Lord you've you've not only saved me you've made me a preacher I don't understand it Lord oh you are a god of Wrath but you are a God of such great goodness as well such a God of grace a God of glory Lord I pray for your help right now may you may you give me the thoughts may you give me the words father I pray that your spirit would attend to this Lord do in this place this morning what I can't do doing the hearts of these people what I can't do please Lord for your glories say for Christ's sake amen well if you have your Bibles please open to Revelation chapter 14 Revelation chapter 14 you like to would you like to stand we will read God's Word revelation 14 I'm going to beginning reading in verse 9 and another angel a third followed them saying with a loud voice if anyone worships the Beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand he also will drink the wine of God's wrath poured full strength into the cup of his anger and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the Holy Angels and in the presence of the Lamb and the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever and they have no rest day or night you may be seated I've got four points this morning security severity suitability and sanctity and what I mean by that is the security of the world they don't think they're going there the severity of this place that's described the suitability of it and the sanctity sanctity that's a word that has to do with the holiness hell is a fearful place but it's a good place when we understand it right when we understand the glory of God all right first the security yesterday myself and some others for my church we were out we went to a place where the homeless gather we take the gospel to them I stood up on the back of a pickup truck and I preached to the people that were gathered there most of these are homeless they're drunks they're drug addicts they're prostitutes and I said how many of you think that you'll go to hell how many hands do you think went up not one the world has themselves convinced that this is a place that they are not going to everyman devises when when men hear about the doctrine of Hell when they hear that there is a hell even when they hear that whew go to heaven few there be that find it they suppose they contrive they reason they scheme not me not me I'm not going to go there somehow every one of us for 25 years of my life I was lost I serve sin I serve self I serve Satan I did not think I was going to hell now praise God I'm not but it wasn't because of any of my plans back then no man wants to believe he's going there and you know some of you you've read this text I know that there are those of you I know I know based on what God's Word tells me some of you in this place that hear my voice will go to the place I described today some of you are headed there you don't think you are but even now you provoke God by your very attendance of his worship today because you have not Christ you have no hope and without God but you don't think you'll go there you think that somehow you're going to reason you're going to figure out because of something that you have done or are doing or hope to do in the future somehow you plan to miss that place and I know some of us we can look at this text you know when I was lost I would have said what maybe many would say out in the world and in this place - I don't worship the Beast I'm gonna we can go into the bathroom after the service and look in the mirror I don't have and one of the problems with that is we've watched too much of the Left Behind series because if you go looking for a 666 on your hand you're not going to find it what does it mean when it speaks about the mind or the forehead and the hand we have it described in other places if we want to rightly interpret the book of Revelation we ought to look at what the rest of the scriptures say to us we go to the eighth chapter of the book of Romans it speaks about the mind the mind that is set on the things of the flesh is death it is eternal damnation it is at enmity against God it is hostile towards him you want to know what a mark on the head is the head has to do with the thoughts I can pretty much describe accurately those of you who are right now on the broad way of destruction what fills your thoughts I'm not asking if you remember this church or whether you own a Bible and even maybe read it what consumes your thoughts that will tell me and that will tell you who your God is your God is who you think about I didn't think about God very much when I was a lost man but God fills my mind now and the hands the hands they're a symbol of what we do you want to see this describe for us Matthew chapter 25 no better description in all of God's Word the hands want to know whether you've got the mark of the beast on your hands size it up what does Christ say who is it that's going to eternal punishment I was in prison I was sick I was hungry I was thirsty I was naked you didn't help me you didn't Lord when didn't we help you as much as you did not do it to one of the least of these you have not done it unto me and they will be told to depart and they will go away into eternal torments men reason and men's scheme but the fact is God's Word says that many many many are on that way of destruction many there are that is fearful in a Gallup poll taken in the United States less than 4 percent of Americans believe that they might go to hell not 4 percent less than 4 and don't believe that they are going they believe that there's a possibility they may go do you know what that tells me there are many that are deceived and I don't want there to be those in here that are deceived approximately approximately 100 million people will die between now and the 20th of February next year 100 million people that's staggering if you do the mathematics that comes out to about 3 people every second are passing into eternity that fast souls are going out of this world into an eternal hell or eternal joy and God's Word says most of those are on the broad way to destruction Christ is the only way to the Father those who are Buddhists in this world are passing into damnation those who died practicing Muslims are going practicing Catholics if they are worshipping Mary they are not worshippers of Christ one of those clicks has your name on it think about another and another and another and another and another they're passing off into eternity right now and another and another when you take your next breath in the time it took more of souls are passing off into eternity men walk around they they say peace and safety peace and safety and the Word of God says then sudden destruction it takes hold on them then they have these plans if we could bring up the Damned from Hell right now what would they say to us I never thought that go here I never thought I never thought hell would take me I thought I had it figured out it took me in a moment it took me when I didn't expect it that's another another they're passing off into eternity they did not expect hell to take them when it did Jonathan Edwards so long ago he described men is walking over the pit of hell on a rotten covering and there are weak places in that covering and they know not where they are or when they're going to upon them in a moment when they think not their feet slip and they're gone your sins if you are without Christ your sins are mounting up their increasing in 1st Thessalonians chapter 2 Paul speaks about the Jews and the measure of their sin filling up you know there's a place in the Old Testament in Genesis where God told Abraham your people will go into Egypt and they will come back into this land but not yet it'll be after 400 years because the iniquity of the amorite s-- is not yet full there's a place in Daniel chapter 12 verse 2 it speaks about the transgressions reaching their limit if you are without Christ your sins are mounted up and the moment is coming when God will no longer endure you to stay here God created man in His image to be bears of good fruit in this life Christ told his disciples that you're going to glorify my father by bringing forth much fruit Christ died to make us fruitful people but if you will not bear good fruit remember what John the Baptist told the people the axis laid at the root if you don't bring forth fruits meet for repentance or indicative of repentance that ax is laid there now God has a purpose to be glorified God will be glorified by every soul in this room he will be but if you will not glorify him actively by good works you will glorify him passively by a demonstration of his power in Romans chapter 9 it says very clearly that the vessels of Wrath are being fitted for destruction and God will glow RFI his power and his wrath through you you will glorify God actively or passively and speaking of statistics that we talked about just a second ago statistically 100 percent of all people who do not bring forth good works 100 percent of all people who die without Christ they are in Hell now second thing the severity I have literally trembled as I have studied this topic what causes my soul to shake within me is the eternality the foreverness of Hell before I did a series on Hell at my own church I did a series on heaven it's a glorious doctrine it is glorious but you know there is something glorious about the doctrine of hell - it is glorious and it's dreadfulness in its fearfulness because it reveals to us a part of God that oftentimes we don't like to admit is real and exists but it is necessary we love to talk about God's love God's goodness God's mercy God's compassion God's forbearance God's tender mercies oh and it is good it is good good to give thanks to the Lord for those things but when you think about the severity of Hell you begin to realize it is no slap on the wrist hell is fearsome it is dreadful we read our Bibles and we can pass over those texts so freely so easily weeping and gnashing of teeth in the ESV in Matthew 18 it speaks about the hell of fire hell is a place of fire I've thought about my grandmother's house I grew up in Michigan my grandmother she kind of she lived in a past age in the home she lived and she had actually had a fire burning furnace in the basement and I can remember times going down and and throwing fire in the furnace of keep grandma's house warm in the winter and you open that door and there is a raging infernal fire inside that furnace and Christ described Hell as a fiery furnace and imagine being pushed through that little hole and then the door is shut and it will never open it will never open you've burned yourself on the finger if anything can be attached to the idea of fire is the idea of pain it should strike within our minds that hell is a place of pain unimaginable the man in Luke 16 he cried out in his torments if only he could have a drop of water for his tongue but not even that would be given to him the thing it's so fearful about hell is not just that it is a fiery furnace not just that Isaiah would say not who can dwell with those fires but who can dwell with the everlasting burnings everlasting that is the horror of Horrors about Hell as it never ends it is pain that is excruciating it is anguish our generation knows very little about pain we have so many medications so much to dull the pain but here there will be nothing to dull it God will not relieve your pain no matter how you cry no matter how you weep think of weeping have you ever just wept uncontrollably you just you've lost a beloved one something traumatic has happened in your life where you have lot just wept uncontrollably that is how Christ describes hell it is a place of weeping you will weep think of this to weep forever you will weep if you land in Hell you will weep more than all the weeping that has ever been done in all the ages of all the earth you will fill up the measure of the weeping of every individual who has passed through life because you will weep and you will weep and you will weep and there's the idea of the gnashing of teeth whether it's in the unbearable excruciating pain there are places in the scripture that attached the gnashing of teeth to anger as well the anger that others the anger at yourself the anger at God still hell is not what some make it out to be like purgatory hell does not make better the doctrine of Hell is about eternal destruction it doesn't make better it destroys everything that has any semblance of good the image of God that is upon you man will be eternally defaced and defiled you we become more and more and more contemptible as the in eternal ages passed by and think about that Daniel describes it as a place of eternal contempt do what the word contempt means it means that in in the sight of God he will find you absolutely vile absolutely we loathsome to behold I know second Thessalonians talks about destruction eternal destruction away from or apart from his presence Christ would say in the Gospels depart from me and there is a departing from all of God's goodness some of you may say right now I don't mind that I don't mind living apart from God in fact God makes me uncomfortable I don't like the demands on my life you don't like this thing about repentance I don't mind being without God but nobody is without God not even in hell everything that you have right now everything we're able to enjoy you sink your teeth into an apple or you enjoy a piece of pie you have a nice warm blanket to cover up with I talked with a young man yesterday scar from a bullet hole in his head been shot in the leg he's here in Texas now because he's running from California cos he's already got two strikes against him one more and he goes to prison forever forever in his life he said what has God done for me my mom's dead my grandma's dead my dad's in jail for life I don't know where my brothers and sisters are I have nothing I said that's not true you have a coat on now you've enjoyed the day you just had a meal you've rewrapped with a blanket you see in that sense we are departed from God but in a real sense as well we do not leave God's presence because it is God Himself who with a perfect hatred forever will pour out his content upon us Ezequiel some of the Old Testament prophets had very fearful things to say God says in Ezekiel eight therefore I will act in wrath my I will not spare nor will I have pity and though they cry in my ears with a loud voice I will not hear them he will hate you with a perfect hatred he will hate you and he will have you that is the fearsomeness of hell the text we read says that those in hell they are going to be tormented we're in the presence of the holy angels and of the lamb the most fearful things about Hell is not the total absence of God the absence of all of his blessings yes can you imagine forevermore with not any joy no more comfort but God is going to be there one of the fearful things about God it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God he is a consuming fire and when he sets his face against you he will trample you out and the winepress of his wrath and it is forever Jonathan Edwards he said Almighty God will inflict wrath without any pity when God be holds the unspeakable he said the ineffable extremity of your case and sees your torment to be so vastly disproportionate to your strength and sees how your poor soul is crushed and sinks down as it were into an infinite gloom he will have no compassion upon you he will not forbear the executions of his wrath or in the least light in his hand there will be no moderation no mercy he will have no regard to your welfare nor be at all careful lest you should suffer too much in any other sense than only that you shall not suffer beyond what strict justice requires nothing shall be withheld because it is so hard for you to bear now I said hell is going to test our God centeredness sometimes when we go out on the streets in San Antonio take the gospel to some of the homeless we'll run into people from other churches they won't tell these people all the time God loves you God loves you Jesus loves you I know that God shows great compassion upon his enemies I know he does he causes the Sun to rise on the just and the unjust someone has done a study of God's hatred in the Word of God they examined 33 texts and you can do this yourself concerning the hatred of God do you know that only 12 of those texts describe God as hating the sin 12:21 described God as hating the sinner the psalmist said his soul hates the wicked he hates all evildoers one of the things that we have to we have to grasp you come to a text like like John 3:36 the wrath of God abides upon you already if you are not a believer in Jesus Christ already that doesn't mean that God goes around with a perpetual smile upon you it means what it says his wrath is upon you if you can get this idea into your minds into your souls in your thought process that there are those of us in this place right now who sit here at relative ease God hates you God's wrath God's indignation God's anger is directed to you more than some who are in hell right at this moment you say can that be yes because some of you have sinned in the face of greater light God's Word says to whom much is given much is required that servant who knew his master's will and didn't do it will be beaten with greater stripes there are some of you you have heard the gospel you have heard the truth you have mother's or Father's or wives or husbands who have prayed for you you have a Bible in your hand and you know what you have provoked God more than some who have lived in past generations in inland China or Central Africa because you have far more light and God's hatred towards you is stirred his indignation is stirred far more than for those who are there and the only thing that keeps you out of hell right now the only thing is God's will to keep you there God's forbearance there is nothing else there is no promise because the covenants of promise the premises that are found within the covenant in this book they are gay an amen in Jesus Christ alone but you don't believe the promises of the Covenant and you have no part of the mediator of the Covenant you walk over a rotten covering the measure of your sins is filling up and that moment is going to come when God is not going to abide you to stay upon this earth one moment longer not one moment longer and it is a fearful thing and as I study this sit at my desk constantly thinking of my children it's a fearful fearful thing but it is a reality and preachers who will not preach on this they're not faithful to you because God's Word says this oh that the series on heaven was glorious it took me to levels that's what is fearful we lack by and large a sense of fear of God in our assembly the weeping and the mourning have long since departed many of the churches in the United States of America the fear of God the trembling because by and large we've lost the doctrine of Hell in our country God is love and he is but we have a lopsided theology today a third thing I would say about Hell is its suitability do we think it's too severe we can we will think it's too severe if we are to man centered in our thinking I was thinking I love missions my desire my heart and soul is to eventually be on the foreign mission field permanently I love to read the missionary biographies but I look around today and I see very few in our generation that are willing to do what they did in the days of a denier in Judson or William Carey or Hudson Taylor who are willing to go off to the foreign lands you know why because they could not stand that among the heathen God's glory was not being exalted they couldn't sleep at night Kerry would stand for hours working on shoes and stare at maps thinking about the the heathen that were passing off into eternity with no knowledge of Christ no knowledge of the gospel they wanted God to be glorified among the nations what happens in the u.s. today young men and young women run off to the mission field you know it if you've studied the numbers in the Southern Baptist Convention you know it the average stay on the foreign mission field is one term they come home it's all over you know why because God's glory is not the main thing there Comfort is and we live in a generation that you know it God's glory is not the main thing we drive down our highways God is the greatest reality and all the universe tried to have the highways where's God where is he on the billboards where is he on the talk radio where is he on the television where is he God's glory doesn't matter anymore but he'll wakes us up to it he'll stairs this humanistic mindset straight in the face his one is said it is like a brutal claw to just tears through the fabric of our humanistic thinking it is exactly that we need to hear about this and furthermore the doctrine of hell it shows us it shows us that our view of sin our views of sin I don't know exactly what is happening but we can think one of the ladies of our church had her purse stolen if people come in off the street eat at our church prostitutes crack addicts one of them stole my wife's purse we look at that and our mindset today is oh look what they did to Ruby we get to the point in our generation where self-esteem man's importance man's happiness there's such a self-centered view such a humanistic the horizontal plane is where we view sin we tend to forget that when we sin when God's law says thou shalt not steal it is not ultimately you I violate when I sin against you it is God who gave that law it is his law that is broken you remember how Joseph said oh not how can I do this sin against Potiphar how can i sin when Potiphar's wife was trying to seduce him how can I do this sin before God in Psalm 51 David is not pre-eminently sorrowing over the fact that he had killed Uriah or committed adultery with Bathsheba he looked up to God O God before you for you I've sinned the doctrine of hell is a wake up call to us that our sin is not ultimately against one another it is ultimately against God and the doctrine of hell wakes us up to the fact that we have we have made God into some little man centered image as well we see God primarily oftentimes for what he can do for us God is mainly there to answer my prayers God is mainly there to take care of my problems God is mainly there help me with my financial difficulties mainly there to help heal my marriage mainly there take care of me he's like we make him into the celestial Santa Claus who's at our beck and call to do what we call upon him as recently I had a woman email me would you please pray for me I don't feel that I have gotten all the riches that I think I should have in becoming a Christian that's that's the mindset today that's where we come up with a God who's all about our health our wealth our prosperity but again the doctrine of hell it jumps in our face it it comes to the edges of our conscience it are disturbing whispers in it that there is a God here that we cannot manipulate there is a God here that we cannot minimize there is a God who is holy there is a God who is mighty there is a God who is going to exact perfect judgment on sin there is a God who is fearsome there's a God who is not to be toyed with not to be played with and he is the preeminent being in this universe it is not all about me yes I can look to God to provide my daily food but whether I eat her whether I drink it is to be done to his glory his glory the thing God values most of is his glory not mine his oh it is a doctrine that can help us to realize that we are small that he is big you begin to realize that sin is satisfactory satisfactorily dealt with in hell you see when I look at sin and I see it as a relatively small thing and I look at the eternality of Hell it seems it seems like there's a vast difference between them Spurgeon said that that when those who fall into the pit of hell they are going to see everywhere forever forever forever above everything above every door if there were such things they're about on everything on every chain there is going to be written forever there is utter hopelessness we look at that how but sin sin is such a small thing I mean if I committed sin for seventy years of my life here how is it God can torment me forever in hell doesn't there seem like there's some disproportionate dealing with the sin there but not at all once we realize who our sin is against ultimately and what who the God is that we sit against what he is you know it's one thing it's one thing if we squash a fire ant or we swat a mosquito but you know it's another thing altogether if you find your child out in the yard rather than stepping on ants he's out there taking living cats and mutilating them in your yard you would probably respond differently you know why because you attach greater significance to a cat there's greater worth in your estimation and it would be even different if you saw somebody brutally killing a child and your estimation the sin would be much greater because the one the sin is against has greater worth but how do you measure sin that is committed against an infinitely holy God even the smallest sin committed against an infinitely holy God it is infinite it is infinitely wicked when we hear forever forever forever hell is reasonable when we see in the one who is sentenced to that place wickedness that is infinite some of you that hear my voice you are quickly moving in that direction and the fearful thing is and I realize this about my children as well my children are the children of a pastor and if a godly mother who have the Word of God brought to them just about daily multiple times per day they have been born under such light and to resist that light I know that those cannibals in Papua New Guinea as wretched as that sin seems to us the hottest parts of hell the most incredible torments are reserved for those that have sat under the greatest light who have filled our churches and Sunday mornings sinn as the apostle says in Romans is exceedingly sinful if we saw something in wicked men that should appear is hateful to us as eternal misery appears dreadful something that should as much stir up indignation and detestation in us as eternal misery does terror all objections against this doctrine would vanish at once see the doctrine of hell it confronts us with two infinities an infinite God and an eternal hell and just to finish up the last thing the sanctity of hell I know to some degree we are man centered the best of us in here and to some degree in this lifetime our compassion directed to the lost is something that we should give our heart to and we should mourn over but those of us that are here we're in Christ when you stand in glory and there's a number of texts that would give us every indication that we will see the damned in hell we will the last verse of Isaiah the fact even the one we read we are going to be in the presence of the holy angels and of the lamb and if those who are going to be suffering suffering eternal torment will be there as well I think it is very likely that we will see them in Luke 16 Lazarus saw the rich man the rich man could see there was a great chasm between them but the visibility was there in this life there are parents here I know you're here as I feel it myself you would gladly you would gladly do what Matthew 18 says he would gladly lose an eye lose a foot lose a hand that your children might be spared from hell wouldn't you in a moment but even if it's your child your mother your brother who ends up in that eternal place of torment and you're in glory believe it the glory of Christ will so consume you the suffering of the Damned at that time will not cause you sorrow it will not cause you grief it will not cause you pain those who are in Hell will be so stripped of every good they will be seen for what they are they everything good about them will be taken from them what they seem to have they will no longer have every bit of common grace that was bestowed upon them will be withdrawn they will be seen to be the horrible detestable creatures they are and you will be so in love with Christ and so enamored by his glory what he'll will do in that day it will open your eyes to the glories of Christ all the more because they're what hell is going to do is vindicate the majesty of God that was despised by those who are in Hell you see our sin can be measured by the one who is insulted by it God is ultimately the one insulted by our sin his majesty is insulted how many times in the first chapter of Romans doesn't say they exchanged they exchanged the glory of the immortal God they exchanged it in Jeremiah he says my people they committed two evils what did they do they exchanged it is that deadly exchanged drinking from the broken cisterns had given up him see how it's it tramples upon the majesty of God and when God shows his redeemed in hell that it is so utterly infinitely dreadful you know what it's going to do it is going to magnify the majesty that was despised by the sin of those who were there because you understand if their punishment was less if their suffering was less it would speak of lesser glory that was insulted by the sin they committed and so His Majesty is going to just it is going to glow all the more brighter in our estimation because of it and His perfect justice is as well going to be glorified the glory of God is the greatest good the glory of God in His justice is going to shine he will appear as the just governor of all the universe as Edward says the vindictive or retributive or penal justice of God will appear strict exact awful and terrible and therefore glorious but also God is going to glorify His grace and His mercy to those of you who have come to Christ you know I read one time about a denier in Judson he had been in prison they'd hung him upside down his bottom of his feet were raw the mosquitos would come they would chained him upside down so his head was on the floor and after he got out of prison he was on a raft on a river with his wife and with his child sailing down the river and he was talking about how glorious freedom was freedom we take it for granted our forefathers didn't our forefathers who fought for their independence in this country do not take it for granted because it cost them an item judson floating down the river that day did not take freedom for granted you know why because it was set off by the stark con rest of what he had been suffering before there and in hell that is what's going to happen you know those co-workers those schoolmates those family members you were more wicked than them there they suffer or why why did you spare me hold hard such glorious grace I deserve what they have I see it Laurie I deserved it worse Lord I despised greater light and hell it will be that stark contrast to the love and to the to the glory and the honor and the immortality that God will rain upon his people and you know I finish with this hell shows us it puts a proper estimate upon the cross of Jesus Christ because when you throw the doctrine of hell out the door you've just began to undermine the whole truth behind the cross of Jesus Christ because what hell does is it shows it shows us what Christ had to pay on our behalf it's a wake-up call to the fact that sin is not a small matter if hell was not so severe then what was the need of an atonement that was so severe but when we begin to realize how dreadful it is oh it begins to clarify in the mind just how much Christ suffered in those three hours what was behind those words we cannot know my God my God why have you forsaken me but it helps us to understand it helps us this is no game if you're not certain if something rings true to this in your conscience that I'm in great danger of this Christ stands ready to pardon this is a day of mercy this is a day of grace today the voice of Christ beckons you come come unto me you that labor and are heavy-laden I'll give you rest for your souls come today it's come it's come come then it will be depart depart depart depart and the door will shut and it's all over no hope no hope eternity eternity will multiply your sufferings no matter how great the pain the thing that will constantly fill your mind is it's forever you'll wish to be annihilated you'll wish to not exist anymore but today Christ says look and live just as the serpent was lifted up in the wilderness so those who look upon what Christ did on the cross look look to Christ whatever sin you have to leave behind he says it is better to go blind than to go with two eyes in to that eternal fire you may have some friends you may have somebody that put pressure on you children you hang around with friends they'd laugh at you if you did this don't let anybody be responsible for damning your soul there's too much at stake and don't believe as some say that there's a great party in hell it is not that way you will look and you will nashit your teeth on them if you should both wind up in hell you'll say damn you damn you I'm here because of you you led me in that sin it is not a game your soul is at stake your soul is at stake oh god help you let's pray father I know that I know that this is it's a fearful thing but you've set just that it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God Lord I can't awaken hearts I certainly can't scare people into glory but Lord you can use this as a wake-up call to the conscience of some who are blindly going on dead in trespasses and sins Lord do in their hearts what I can't do bring life draw them to Christ may the sweet savour of he who poured out his life's blood for sinners may he become sweet in their eyes may they may they treasure him above all other things may they find him glorious may find him beautiful may they find him worth sacrificing all for Lord grant repentance in this place father I pray may the fear of God be before our eyes Oh God father I thank you for my salvation I thank you for those that you've saved in here Lord that we have so great a salvation that we can praise you we have been delivered from the wrath of God you've woke us up and called us to flee Lord we love because you first loved us thank you lord I thank you Father for the privilege of being able to be here today and I pray that you would bless your people and draw into your kingdom those lost sheep for your glory I pray this amen
