What we know of God is what God
has revealed to us.
You haven't discovered God.
You didn't invent God.
God is God by Himself.
Men's hearts failing them for fear and for
the looking after those things which are coming
upon the earth for the powers of heaven
shall be shaken.
And then shall they see the Son of
Man coming in clouds with power and great
glory.
And when these things begin to come to
pass, then look up, lift up your heads,
for your redemption draws nigh.
Some preach a gospel, Paul said, but it's
not the true gospel.
He said some preach of Jesus, but it's
another Jesus.
He said some talk of the Spirit, but
it is another Spirit.
And these are dangerous times in which all
of us must get concerned about the things
of God and get interested in it.
The apostle Paul said, I'm concerned that when
I leave you, grievous wolves will come in.
Of the
Lord and of the Lord is when men
and women set aside some time and they
begin to deliberately worship and call upon the
name of the Lord because God said, I
will inhabit the places of my people.
When two or three are gathered together in
mining in the midst of them, I shall
be also.
So, you know, somebody better be concerned.
Paul said, I have not stopped day and
night to preach to you because it's possible
that in one generation you can lose a
love for the truth.
And that's why the church has got to
be strong.
That's why the preachers have got to be
strong.
In a
moment, in the twinkling of an eye, you
and I could be caught up to forever
be with the Lord.
That's the day you're living.
But there are many grievous wolves that would
destroy and take from your heart the word
of God.
There are many enemies of the truth.
There are enemies of the cross.
How many believe there's enemies of the name
of Jesus Christ?
We're facing a world that the very nature
of this world is in a contrast with
the word of God.
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
I want you to know that it is
important to Jesus that you know and realize,
hallelujah, that you cannot do the things pertaining
to Him so long as you're in the
flesh.
And the only way you can leave the
old flesh behind is when you dedicate yourself,
hallelujah, to prayer, to supplication, to fasting, and
talking to the Lord.
You can't know Him unless you worship Him.
You can't know Him unless you spend time
with Him.
You can't know Him unless you magnify His
holy name.
You can't know Him unless you come together
with people of like precious faith.
Unite your voices together and lift up the
name of Jesus and proclaim the good things
of God.
It's the only way, church.
Hallelujah, I know He's coming.
You know He's coming.
But outside the doors of this church, there
is a world that's careening into hell by
the tens of thousands every day.
And we can't sit helplessly behind complacent and
let it continue to go on.
We must take a stand someplace, sometime.
You've got to draw a line in the
sand.
