will return. 10 00:00:27,780 --> 00:00:28,520 Hallelujah. 11 00:00:30,870 --> 00:00:31,890 He will return. 12 00:00:32,590 --> 00:00:35,590 He will return in flaming fire. 13 00:00:36,430 --> 00:00:40,670 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that 14 00:00:40,670 --> 00:00:41,650 know not God. 15 00:00:43,940 --> 00:00:46,660 Taking vengeance on them that know not God 16 00:00:46,660 --> 00:00:48,760 and that obey not the gospel of our 17 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:49,560 Lord Jesus Christ. 18 00:00:53,030 --> 00:00:56,370 He will return in flaming fire taking vengeance 19 00:00:56,370 --> 00:00:58,690 on them that know not God and that 20 00:00:58,690 --> 00:01:01,030 obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus 21 00:01:01,030 --> 00:01:05,530 Christ who shall be punished with everlasting destruction. 22 00:01:06,670 --> 00:01:10,870 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from 23 00:01:10,870 --> 00:01:12,410 the presence of the Lord and from the 24 00:01:12,410 --> 00:01:13,310 glory of His power. 25 00:01:17,100 --> 00:01:26,580 In Revelation chapter 20 John records the revelation 26 00:01:26,580 --> 00:01:31,260 given to him by Jesus of mankind's destination 27 00:01:31,260 --> 00:01:35,380 and he says in verse 11, I saw 28 00:01:35,380 --> 00:01:38,200 a great white throne. 29 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,100 I saw a great white throne and him 30 00:01:42,100 --> 00:01:45,120 that sat on it from whose face the 31 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,400 earth and the heavens fled away and there 32 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,860 was found no place for them. 33 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:51,820 And I saw the dead. 34 00:01:52,220 --> 00:01:58,660 I saw the dead small and great stand. 35 00:02:02,170 --> 00:02:05,610 I saw the dead small children and great 36 00:02:05,610 --> 00:02:07,650 grown-ups stand before God. 37 00:02:08,729 --> 00:02:16,250 Oh what a shock to the multitude who 38 00:02:16,250 --> 00:02:22,570 believed that when they died they land up 39 00:02:22,570 --> 00:02:25,550 in a little wooden box six feet under 40 00:02:25,550 --> 00:02:29,550 the ground and that's all there was to 41 00:02:29,550 --> 00:02:29,890 life. 42 00:02:30,550 --> 00:02:34,950 Nothing beyond that no purpose nothing to be 43 00:02:34,950 --> 00:02:35,830 accountable for. 44 00:02:38,510 --> 00:02:40,170 There was nothing more to life than to 45 00:02:40,170 --> 00:02:42,110 be born do what you want as you 46 00:02:42,110 --> 00:02:43,790 want die land up that's it. 47 00:02:44,870 --> 00:02:50,300 What a shock it's going to be when 48 00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:51,580 they know that isn't it. 49 00:02:53,140 --> 00:02:57,120 I saw the dead small and great stand 50 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:03,820 before God and the books were opened. 51 00:03:04,420 --> 00:03:06,580 The books were opened and another book was 52 00:03:06,580 --> 00:03:08,240 opened which is the book of life and 53 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,600 the dead were judged. 54 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,040 The dead were judged out of those things 55 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,600 which were written in the books according to 56 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:16,200 their works. 57 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,720 The dead were judged out of those things 58 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,160 which were written in the books according to 59 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:30,260 their works and the sea gave up the 60 00:03:30,260 --> 00:03:33,760 dead which were in it and death and 61 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,360 hell delivered up the dead which were in 62 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,580 them and they were judged every man. 63 00:03:39,940 --> 00:03:49,170 Every man according to his works and death 64 00:03:49,170 --> 00:03:54,910 and hell were cast into the lake of 65 00:03:54,910 --> 00:03:55,190 fire. 66 00:03:56,990 --> 00:03:58,830 This is the second death. 67 00:04:01,110 --> 00:04:09,660 The second death and whosoever was not found 68 00:04:09,660 --> 00:04:15,320 written whosoever was not found written in the 69 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:23,260 book of life was cast cast into the 70 00:04:23,260 --> 00:04:23,940 lake of fire. 71 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,360 That's a terrifying word soul. 72 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:32,180 There's no mercy after death. 73 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:40,800 You can scream you can beg there's no 74 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,430 mercy no mercy. 75 00:04:44,770 --> 00:04:48,130 Whosoever was not found written in the book 76 00:04:48,130 --> 00:04:52,110 of life was cast at the final thing 77 00:04:52,110 --> 00:04:54,190 into the lake of fire. 78 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,940 The hands the hands that will bear the 79 00:04:59,940 --> 00:05:04,180 mark for all eternity God says those marks 80 00:05:04,180 --> 00:05:06,220 will never leave the hands of Christ bearing 81 00:05:06,220 --> 00:05:09,300 witness that he tasted death for every man 82 00:05:09,300 --> 00:05:12,820 but those hands it is a fearful thing 83 00:05:12,820 --> 00:05:15,020 to fall into the hands of a living 84 00:05:15,020 --> 00:05:15,560 God. 85 00:05:16,540 --> 00:05:19,060 It is a fearful thing to fall into 86 00:05:19,060 --> 00:05:20,820 the hands of a living God if you 87 00:05:20,820 --> 00:05:23,440 have not prepared to meet with God through 88 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,580 his death. 89 00:05:27,700 --> 00:05:31,660 Before you die Hebrews 10 verse 31 it 90 00:05:38,660 --> 00:05:47,170 is appointed unto men once to die but 91 00:05:47,170 --> 00:05:53,480 after this the judgment. 92 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,860 Hebrews 9 verse 27 it is appointed unto 93 00:05:58,860 --> 00:06:06,290 men once to die but after this so 94 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,400 one thing. 95 00:06:11,660 --> 00:06:12,600 One thing. 96 00:06:13,700 --> 00:06:15,260 One thing only. 97 00:06:15,540 --> 00:06:15,940 Judgment. 98 00:06:17,900 --> 00:06:26,250 God says you don't have to wait 99 00:06:26,250 --> 00:06:30,150 in eternity for the great white throne. 100 00:06:30,530 --> 00:06:32,650 For your judgment to come when you die 101 00:06:32,650 --> 00:06:33,430 without Christ. 102 00:06:34,070 --> 00:06:37,350 That moment of death you are judged. 103 00:06:38,330 --> 00:06:41,110 If you die without Christ you are plunged 104 00:06:41,110 --> 00:06:41,770 into hell. 105 00:06:54,280 --> 00:07:03,250 Christ the God of love spoke of a 106 00:07:03,250 --> 00:07:06,890 man lying in hell. 107 00:07:09,430 --> 00:07:11,070 Christ wouldn't lie. 108 00:07:12,230 --> 00:07:13,430 This man could see. 109 00:07:16,650 --> 00:07:17,970 This man could speak. 110 00:07:18,850 --> 00:07:20,690 His physical body wasn't there. 111 00:07:23,070 --> 00:07:25,910 This man could feel. 112 00:07:28,170 --> 00:07:29,650 This man could scream. 113 00:07:30,730 --> 00:07:34,330 I am tormented in this place. 114 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,500 He could see what he's missed. 115 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:40,980 He could recognize. 116 00:07:41,700 --> 00:07:44,000 Can you imagine the hell of that? 117 00:07:45,780 --> 00:07:46,320 Who's there? 118 00:07:49,130 --> 00:07:49,970 Who made him?

--> 00:08:02,210 No one can come to you. 123 00:08:05,070 --> 00:08:07,150 No one will ever be able to come 124 00:08:07,150 --> 00:08:17,120 from this place to heaven where the 125 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:22,260 smoke of their torment ascendeth up forever and 126 00:08:22,260 --> 00:08:22,720 ever. 127 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,260 They have no peace day or night. 128 00:08:28,640 -->

00:08:41,640 and life is a brief moment. 161 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:42,940 I'm writing a book. 162 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,360 This moment called life. 163 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,800 If you're not conscious already, that's all you've 164 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:50,020 got. 165 00:08:50,780 --> 00:08:53,280 It's gone when you think it has begun. 166 00:08:54,180 --> 00:08:55,800 You're waking up in a fright young people. 167 00:08:57,810 --> 00:09:00,690 I suddenly realise my time is so short. 168 00:09:01,630 --> 00:09:03,010 And it's like yesterday. 169 00:09:03,530 --> 00:09:04,310 It began. 170 00:09:06,260 --> 00:09:16,540 Be careful, this moment, old life, what 171 00:09:16,540 --> 00:09:21,540 you do with it, in the light of 172 00:09:21,540 --> 00:09:22,940 eternity, be careful. 173 00:09:31,490 --> 00:09:37,550 In Ezekiel 33 verse 7, God warned this 174 00:09:37,550 --> 00:09:46,110 prophet, God warned this prophet, so thou, O 175 00:09:46,110 --> 00:09:49,690 son of man, I have set thee a 176 00:09:49,690 --> 00:09:53,910 watchman unto the house of Israel, therefore thou 177 00:09:53,910 --> 00:09:57,090 shalt hear the word at my mouth, thou 178 00:09:57,090 --> 00:09:59,330 shalt hear the word at my mouth, and 179 00:09:59,330 --> 00:10:01,050 warn them from me. 180 00:10:02,450 --> 00:10:05,750 When I say unto the wicked, when I 181 00:10:05,750 --> 00:10:08,870 say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou 182 00:10:08,870 --> 00:10:13,230 shalt surely die, if thou does not speak 183 00:10:13,230 --> 00:10:16,030 and warn the wicked from his way, if 184 00:10:16,030 --> 00:10:18,190 thou does not speak and warn the wicked 185 00:10:18,190 --> 00:10:21,170 from his way, that wicked man will die 186 00:10:21,170 --> 00:10:24,710 in his iniquity, but his blood will I 187 00:10:24,710 --> 00:10:27,750 require at thine hand, if thou does not 188 00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:30,110 speak to warn the wicked from his way, 189 00:10:30,990 --> 00:10:34,550 that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, 190 00:10:34,750 --> 00:10:38,910 but his blood will I require at thine 191 00:10:38,910 --> 00:10:39,330 hand. 192 00:10:39,330 --> 00:10:42,250 But nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of 193 00:10:42,250 --> 00:10:44,090 his way to turn from it, if he 194 00:10:44,090 --> 00:10:45,670 do not turn from his way, he shall 195 00:10:45,670 --> 00:10:47,910 die in his iniquity, but thou hast delivered 196 00:10:47,910 --> 00:10:48,650 thy soul. 197 00:10:53,540 --> 00:10:55,780 Do you think this is the only man 198 00:10:55,780 --> 00:11:00,200 that ever lived that God would be so 199 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:05,240 grieved at, if he failed to warn those 200 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,540 who God intended him to warn of God's 201 00:11:09,540 --> 00:11:09,940 judgment? 202 00:11:12,820 --> 00:11:15,080 Do you think this is the only man 203 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,580 that ever lived that God would be so 204 00:11:18,580 --> 00:11:21,960 grieved at, if he failed to warn the 205 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:26,960 wicked to turn or burn? 206 00:11:28,420 --> 00:11:32,000 The old preacher used to say, if you 207 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,520 preach that today, you'll burn. 208 00:11:42,700 --> 00:11:48,820 In the light, in the light of God's 209 00:11:48,820 --> 00:11:54,300 judgments, his warnings and judgments that are strewn 210 00:11:54,300 --> 00:11:56,400 across the pages of this book to anyone 211 00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,420 that opens this book honestly, and not as 212 00:12:00,420 --> 00:12:05,800 a hypocritical, lying, defying, perverted truth preacher. 213 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:14,770 In the light of all the warnings of 214 00:12:14,770 --> 00:12:19,970 God's judgment and hell that are strewn across 215 00:12:19,970 --> 00:12:22,550 the pages of this book, I would like 216 00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:32,390 to ask two fearful questions here 217 00:12:32,390 --> 00:12:32,930 this morning. 218 00:12:33,890 --> 00:12:43,440 Firstly, to the saved, saved from hell and 219 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:51,940 judgment, to the saved, do you warn men? 220 00:12:56,220 --> 00:13:00,680 Do you warn men to flee from the 221 00:13:00,680 --> 00:13:08,260 wrath to come, to prepare themselves to meet 222 00:13:08,260 --> 00:13:08,820 with God? 223 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,060 Do you warn men to flee from the 224 00:13:12,060 --> 00:13:13,020 wrath to come? 225 00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:24,660 How many men have you walked past? 226 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,620 How many men have you passed since you 227 00:13:30,620 --> 00:13:37,720 have been saved, since you have been saved, 228 00:13:38,580 --> 00:13:43,910 that you could have warned, that you should 229 00:13:43,910 --> 00:13:48,280 have warned of what they will face for 230 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:49,440 all eternity? 231 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:59,060 Most of them, because no one warned, who 232 00:13:59,060 --> 00:14:00,120 could have warned. 233 00:14:05,110 --> 00:14:07,970 This world could be won in one year, 234 00:14:08,530 --> 00:14:11,590 ten times, if every born-again Christian witnessed 235 00:14:11,590 --> 00:14:13,830 as they ought to. 236 00:14:15,310 --> 00:14:20,550 This world could have heard the gospel, if 237 00:14:20,550 --> 00:14:23,190 every one of us did everything we could 238 00:14:23,190 --> 00:14:24,010 and should have. 239 00:14:25,030 --> 00:14:25,950 Don't doubt that. 240 00:14:25,950 --> 00:14:29,870 Don't blame God for the multitudes who don't 241 00:14:29,870 --> 00:14:30,170 hear. 242 00:14:34,900 --> 00:14:35,880 Not this God. 243 00:14:46,740 --> 00:14:52,730 Secondly, I ask this question to the unsaved, 244 00:14:52,830 --> 00:14:56,810 to the lost, to the lost here today, 245 00:14:58,150 --> 00:15:01,990 does it offend you, does it offend you 246 00:15:01,990 --> 00:15:08,110 so, if someone warns you of the judgments 247 00:15:08,110 --> 00:15:10,530 strewn through this book from the heart of 248 00:15:10,530 --> 00:15:12,670 God, that any man standing in the pulpit 249 00:15:12,670 --> 00:15:15,310 that neglects to warn men, their blood will 250 00:15:15,310 --> 00:15:20,150 be on his hands, because of his defiance 251 00:15:20,150 --> 00:15:21,790 and neglect of souls? 252 00:15:22,750 --> 00:15:28,050 Does it offend you, if someone warns you 253 00:15:28,050 --> 00:15:34,250 earnestly, of the judgment you certainly, tragically but 254 00:15:34,250 --> 00:15:37,850 certainly will face for all eternity, if you 255 00:15:37,850 --> 00:15:40,930 reject the gospel of Christ while you are 256 00:15:40,930 --> 00:15:42,130 able to receive it? 257 00:15:43,860 --> 00:15:46,840 Does it offend you, if a preacher preaches 258 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,280 the things that God himself said, that God 259 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,120 of love warns and warns and warns and 260 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,320 warns and warns? 261 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,780 Does it offend you, if someone you know, 262 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:01,060 someone in your family, some preacher, anyone dares 263 00:16:01,060 --> 00:16:08,620 to talk of the judgments of God, that 264 00:16:08,620 --> 00:16:09,620 you will face so? 265 00:16:12,100 --> 00:16:13,680 Most in this week that are going to 266 00:16:13,680 -->

now in a place, sir, you're 414 00:25:24,430 --> 00:25:24,730 wrong. 415 00:25:26,450 --> 00:25:30,470 My brother has never ever known such excruciating 416 00:25:30,470 --> 00:25:33,130 suffering and pain as he knows now from 417 00:25:33,130 --> 00:25:34,130 the moment he died. 418 00:25:37,220 --> 00:25:42,580 This book, this book assures me of that, 419 00:25:42,780 --> 00:25:43,820 though I weep. 420 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,080 And I will not let it be a 421 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,620 lie, even his death become a lie. 422 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,340 He carried a Bible to church. 423 00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:57,200 Yes, but that didn't save him. 424 00:25:58,740 --> 00:26:00,580 My brother and every one of you in 425 00:26:00,580 --> 00:26:03,600 this building know died in his sin. 426 00:26:04,300 --> 00:26:05,820 He never turned from sin. 427 00:26:08,550 --> 00:26:12,330 I pled with him, I begged him, warning 428 00:26:12,330 --> 00:26:14,030 him, quoting his sin. 429 00:26:14,610 --> 00:26:19,150 God assures us, be not deceived, no unrighteous 430 00:26:19,150 --> 00:26:20,950 person shall enter the kingdom of heaven. 431 00:26:21,250 --> 00:26:24,090 Not that defilers shall enter therein and the 432 00:26:24,090 --> 00:26:25,090 names of the... 433 00:26:25,090 --> 00:26:27,610 He never ever repented from that sin. 434 00:26:27,810 --> 00:26:31,470 God assures me, and you, you will never 435 00:26:31,470 --> 00:26:34,050 go to heaven unless you repent of that. 436 00:26:34,770 --> 00:26:36,750 My brother died in his sin. 437 00:26:37,150 --> 00:26:38,290 He would never repent. 438 00:26:38,450 --> 00:26:40,950 No matter how we pled, he died with 439 00:26:40,950 --> 00:26:42,370 nothing of ever repenting. 440 00:26:47,820 --> 00:26:50,360 So my brother is screaming in such agony 441 00:26:50,360 --> 00:26:50,800 now. 442 00:26:51,740 --> 00:26:54,200 We never heard such screams, the agony he 443 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:55,380 knew before he died. 444 00:26:56,020 --> 00:26:56,560 It was sickness. 445 00:27:03,580 --> 00:27:07,320 He said, brother, that preacher started to groan 446 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,080 in anger, shaking his head. 447 00:27:11,420 --> 00:27:16,140 In anger at someone who was telling what 448 00:27:16,140 --> 00:27:17,520 this Bible said. 449 00:27:19,180 --> 00:27:20,140 Is the truth. 450 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,940 He was angry at truth. 451 00:27:26,260 --> 00:27:28,140 Because truth offends, you see. 452 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,160 That's why men don't say, they don't want 453 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:35,040 to lose their tithe. 454 00:27:39,150 --> 00:27:41,370 Don't mind your soul going to hell. 455 00:27:42,150 --> 00:27:43,650 Let me tell you someone who loves you, 456 00:27:43,830 --> 00:27:43,930 sir. 457 00:27:44,910 --> 00:27:47,170 Someone who warns of what he knows your 458 00:27:47,170 --> 00:27:47,670 plight is. 459 00:27:48,130 --> 00:27:49,930 A man who cares nothing for your soul, 460 00:27:50,030 --> 00:27:51,950 he just wants your tendons and your tithe 461 00:27:51,950 --> 00:27:53,310 so that he can have a beautiful car 462 00:27:53,310 --> 00:27:54,910 and pay the electricity bill and live in 463 00:27:54,910 --> 00:27:55,150 comfort. 464 00:27:55,730 --> 00:27:56,730 He'll never warn you. 465 00:27:57,350 --> 00:27:58,330 What's the difference? 466 00:27:58,410 --> 00:28:00,030 He doesn't want your soul, he just wants 467 00:28:00,030 --> 00:28:00,570 your money. 468 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,560 He said, brother, the rest is a church. 469 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:13,140 There were people all over groaning like the 470 00:28:13,140 --> 00:28:13,440 minister. 471 00:28:13,580 --> 00:28:14,500 No, in anger. 472 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,500 And I said, listen, I don't know what 473 00:28:17,500 --> 00:28:19,540 the full repercussions of what I've done is 474 00:28:19,540 --> 00:28:20,020 going to be. 475 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,940 How ostracized I'm going to become for being 476 00:28:22,940 --> 00:28:23,400 truthful. 477 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,540 But I will not let this opportunity go. 478 00:28:26,620 --> 00:28:28,860 Just in case there's one soul sitting here 479 00:28:28,860 --> 00:28:31,440 that's not hypocritically enough to deny this truth. 480 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,100 One soul that might take this and find 481 00:28:34,100 --> 00:28:36,680 themselves through my brother's death and through my 482 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,720 warning at his death of what God says. 483 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:43,440 One soul might be here that won't be 484 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,920 offended by God or man preaching what God 485 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:46,240 says. 486 00:28:46,820 --> 00:28:49,560 Who might seek God's salvation here today and 487 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:50,440 then it's worth it. 488 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,540 Worth being ostracized by all of you and 489 00:28:52,540 --> 00:28:54,520 facing whatever persecutions you're going to put upon 490 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:54,760 me. 491 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,180 For being honest with God's words. 492 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:00,100 In God's book. 493 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:11,530 Does it offend you if someone warns you 494 00:29:11,530 --> 00:29:12,110 of the truth? 495 00:29:12,830 --> 00:29:15,210 Does that make him a fanatical evil man? 496 00:29:16,810 --> 00:29:19,530 Doing something unacceptable to stand in the pulpit 497 00:29:19,530 --> 00:29:21,130 of God with this book and tell what 498 00:29:21,130 --> 00:29:21,890 God says? 499 00:29:23,410 --> 00:29:25,710 When God tells us he will be grieved. 500 00:29:26,330 --> 00:29:27,250 Deeply grieved. 501 00:29:27,370 --> 00:29:29,110 Their blood will be on your hands if 502 00:29:29,110 --> 00:29:30,210 you don't warn them. 503 00:29:31,090 --> 00:29:32,110 God warns. 504 00:29:34,130 --> 00:29:36,150 Does it offend you, sir? 505 00:29:36,910 --> 00:29:37,930 Unsaved soul. 506 00:29:39,270 --> 00:29:42,330 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord we 507 00:29:42,330 --> 00:29:43,370 persuade men. 508 00:29:43,510 --> 00:29:44,830 2 Corinthians 5 verse 11. 509 00:29:45,050 --> 00:29:48,130 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord we 510 00:29:48,130 --> 00:29:49,230 persuade men. 511 00:29:49,710 --> 00:29:50,210 Do you? 512 00:29:50,910 -->

00:29:57,890 --> 00:29:59,970 You know what God says. 517 00:30:00,310 --> 00:30:02,930 Knowing the terror that we persuade men. 518 00:30:03,150 --> 00:30:03,910 When did you last? 519 00:30:04,550 --> 00:30:06,590 When did you last try and persuade a 520 00:30:06,590 --> 00:30:08,610 man, a woman, a child to seek God 521 00:30:08,610 --> 00:30:10,130 and not face what you know they're going 522 00:30:10,130 --> 00:30:11,570 to face for eternity? 523 00:30:11,970 --> 00:30:13,490 Because no one warned them, most of them. 524 00:30:17,610 --> 00:30:24,330 My father, his mother, my granny was

00:34:20,719 I appreciate your concern but daddy, granny is 615 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,760 becoming truly angry like others. 616 00:34:26,389 --> 00:34:32,060 You've got to slow down daddy I'll never 617 00:34:32,060 --> 00:34:34,420 forget for eternity how my father stood when 618 00:34:34,420 --> 00:34:36,500 I said those words and began to weep. 619 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,219 He wept and he cried in such a 620 00:34:40,219 --> 00:34:42,000 way, these words to me that I am 621 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,320 still shaken by what my father said to 622 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:44,480 me. 623 00:34:46,790 --> 00:34:48,830 He said with a loud voice, my boy 624 00:34:49,909 --> 00:34:53,610 I stood watching my father die and I 625 00:34:53,610 --> 00:34:55,650 didn't have the gospel of Jesus to give 626 00:34:55,650 --> 00:34:58,530 him the way he died with such torment 627 00:34:58,530 --> 00:35:00,810 and fear of facing God and his sin 628 00:35:01,830 --> 00:35:05,730 the agony, the suffering, the fear the scream, 629 00:35:05,930 --> 00:35:07,690 the way my father died and I was 630 00:35:07,690 --> 00:35:13,260 helpless I will never see my father again 631 00:35:13,260 --> 00:35:14,120 for all eternity. 632 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:15,300 I know that. 633 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,780 Don't you tell me to watch my father 634 00:35:18,780 --> 00:35:20,000 die like that. 635 00:35:22,710 --> 00:35:25,690 I don't care what you say my boy 636 00:35:25,690 --> 00:35:26,270 or others. 637 00:35:28,030 --> 00:35:30,370 While she lives and she's frail, she could 638 00:35:30,370 --> 00:35:31,050 go any day. 639 00:35:31,190 --> 00:35:33,830 I will not slow down I will do 640 00:35:33,830 --> 00:35:37,530 everything in my faculty of my being to 641 00:35:37,530 --> 00:35:39,350 make her come to Christ and I will 642 00:35:39,350 --> 00:35:44,420 not slow down Don't you dare tell me 643 00:35:44,420 --> 00:35:46,980 to let my mother die like my father 644 00:35:46,980 --> 00:35:47,600 died. 645 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:52,420 Now that I know how to face death 646 00:35:52,420 --> 00:36:02,040 with peace Let me shock you all. 647 00:36:02,980 --> 00:36:05,360 My granny was gloriously saved. 648 00:36:07,740 --> 00:36:09,700 Not just saved, you know that this kind 649 00:36:09,700 --> 00:36:12,780 of worry, wonder is their food. 650 00:36:13,260 --> 00:36:15,900 When daddy heard that granny had been saved 651 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:18,860 he said it's not enough God. 652 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,220 I opened my eyes and looked at him 653 00:36:21,220 --> 00:36:22,300 and he's praying. 654 00:36:22,660 --> 00:36:23,460 It's not enough God. 655 00:36:23,540 --> 00:36:25,980 I'm not satisfied You've got to let her 656 00:36:25,980 --> 00:36:28,120 live long enough to make me know she's 657 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:28,780 truly saved. 658 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:29,740 I want to see. 659 00:36:31,240 --> 00:36:34,540 You saved her to be at peace and 660 00:36:34,540 --> 00:36:37,340 you know God touched my granny and gave 661 00:36:37,340 --> 00:36:41,300 her about 7, 8 years of better health 662 00:36:41,300 --> 00:36:44,240 than she had known for 20 years and 663 00:36:44,240 --> 00:36:46,660 my granny was so saved she nearly turned 664 00:36:46,660 --> 00:36:50,460 the world upside down Oh no more sore 665 00:36:50,460 --> 00:36:50,800 back. 666 00:36:50,860 --> 00:36:53,540 She dragged everybody with all their moans. 667 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,440 You've got to hear the truth before you 668 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:56,420 die and go to hell. 669 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,940 By the way Isa Noyes divided the scriptures 670 00:37:00,940 --> 00:37:02,680 and went with her mock Bible to soul 671 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:03,160 upon soul. 672 00:37:03,340 --> 00:37:05,380 You've got to read I'm coming back. 673 00:37:06,860 --> 00:37:09,760 Hallelujah She was saved mightily. 674 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:14,600 How could she not have been saved with 675 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:15,540 a son like that? 676 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,660 I want you to ask yourself what hope 677 00:37:18,660 --> 00:37:21,440 did she have of not being saved with 678 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:22,620 a son like that? 679 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:35,870 Your mother to have 680 00:37:35,870 --> 00:37:36,590 a free will. 681 00:37:39,660 --> 00:37:42,260 But few can escape the love of Christ 682 00:37:42,260 --> 00:37:46,620 constraining us like my father was constrained by 683 00:37:46,620 --> 00:37:48,020 God's love for every man. 684 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,980 When my brother 3 years older than me 685 00:37:55,980 --> 00:38:02,290 was saved he came to the church hating 686 00:38:02,290 --> 00:38:04,070 what he was doing He didn't want to 687 00:38:04,070 --> 00:38:04,270 go. 688 00:38:06,190 --> 00:38:08,690 He thought these people are crazy. 689 00:38:10,030 --> 00:38:13,110 They're fanatics I don't want to be like 690 00:38:13,110 --> 00:38:17,450 this He feared becoming like these fanatical crazy 691 00:38:17,450 --> 00:38:22,220 Christians but he went just to pacify them 692 00:38:22,220 --> 00:38:26,180 and get them over his back He sat 693 00:38:26,180 --> 00:38:28,120 there and he thought to himself I don't 694 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,200 want this I'm going to switch off. 695 00:38:30,700 --> 00:38:32,880 I don't want to hear this I'm not 696 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:33,160 interested. 697 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,420 I don't want to be like this Can 698 00:38:35,420 --> 00:38:37,460 you imagine coming to church like what are 699 00:38:37,460 --> 00:38:38,180 you doing in church? 700 00:38:38,820 --> 00:38:39,980 Did you come here for God? 701 00:38:40,220 --> 00:38:40,840 I want you to answer. 702 00:38:41,140 --> 00:38:42,800 Did you come here seeking God? 703 00:38:43,260 --> 00:38:44,880 You sit there not wanting to be here. 704 00:38:45,180 --> 00:38:47,860 You're just pacifying people Sometimes you have to 705 00:38:47,860 --> 00:38:49,860 pacify them by coming otherwise you get a 706 00:38:49,860 --> 00:38:54,750 bit of moles Now people come to church 707 00:38:54,750 --> 00:38:55,670 nothing of God in their heart. 708 00:38:55,730 --> 00:38:57,970 They don't want God Impossible. 709 00:38:58,150 --> 00:39:01,550 Someone's like that here today My brother couldn't 710 00:39:01,550 --> 00:39:01,990 switch off. 711 00:39:02,070 --> 00:39:02,690 Do you know why? 712 00:39:03,550 --> 00:39:05,410 He wanted to try but he couldn't switch 713 00:39:05,410 --> 00:39:07,390 off An old man stood in the pulpit. 714 00:39:08,030 --> 00:39:10,010 The Godliest man I ever knew in my 715 00:39:10,010 --> 00:39:12,350 entire life was William McFarland He was all 716 00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:18,150 white, thin A bird in his heart was 717 00:39:18,150 --> 00:39:20,970 his book As few men could quote it 718 00:39:20,970 --> 00:39:25,060 in the history of the church And this 719 00:39:25,060 --> 00:39:27,040 man who preached as few men have ever 720 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:28,720 been anointed in the history of the church 721 00:39:28,720 --> 00:39:29,740 I have no doubt of that. 722 00:39:32,220 --> 00:39:34,840 He stood there and tears poured down his 723 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,320 face As he quoted the judgments of God 724 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,660 One passage after the other from the heart 725 00:39:40,660 --> 00:39:43,340 and the lips of God What God says 726 00:39:43,340 --> 00:39:48,660 will happen to the soul On and on 727 00:39:49,900 --> 00:39:52,600 My brother had never heard the word hell 728 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:56,750 in his life from a pulpit And we 729 00:39:56,750 --> 00:39:57,990 had been to many pulpits. 730 00:39:58,850 --> 00:40:00,830 We used to change churches as we changed 731 00:40:00,830 --> 00:40:04,610 girlfriends And believe me we had a lot 732 00:40:04,610 --> 00:40:08,510 of girlfriends As unsaved, saintly, ignorant of what 733 00:40:08,510 --> 00:40:13,470 God said My brother had never ever heard 734 00:40:13,470 --> 00:40:16,030 A preacher in his life from all the 735 00:40:16,030 --> 00:40:18,190 churches we had been to Ever use the 736 00:40:18,190 --> 00:40:21,670 word hell, judgment, repentance Nothing judgmental. 737 00:40:21,930 --> 00:40:22,770 It's just religion. 738 00:40:22,970 --> 00:40:24,490 No matter what you're living, no matter what 739 00:40:24,490 --> 00:40:25,630 you're going to walk out there doing You 740 00:40:25,630 --> 00:40:27,490 don't say them but that's what you imply. 741 00:40:28,190 --> 00:40:30,150 You're all Christians We're born Christians, born in 742 00:40:30,150 --> 00:40:32,750

the word hell Was in a blasphemous 746 00:40:38,770 --> 00:40:39,190 joke. 747 00:40:39,350 --> 00:40:41,010 Otherwise he'd never heard the word hell in 748 00:40:41,010 --> 00:40:43,730 his life Not from any pulpit, from any 749 00:40:43,730 --> 00:40:46,250 preacher in his life That preached what God 750 00:40:46,250 --> 00:40:46,550 says. 751 00:40:47,030 --> 00:40:48,810 If they don't preach the blood is on 752 00:40:48,810 --> 00:40:50,750 your hands Even if you're unsaved. 753 00:40:51,170 --> 00:40:53,090 But you know it's there and you stand 754 00:40:53,090 --> 00:40:54,090 there

you keep the truth From 758 00:41:01,530 --> 00:41:01,770 them. 759 00:41:04,340 --> 00:41:06,240 You either take away from this book or 760 00:41:06,240 --> 00:41:09,580 add to it Just pacify your doctrine, your 761 00:41:09,580 --> 00:41:12,560 understanding, your Leanings. 762 00:41:12,860 --> 00:41:18,160 There's a lie of what's in that book 763 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:20,700 Just to be religious. 764 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:21,660 Oh be careful. 765 00:41:22,180 --> 00:41:24,480 My brother Listening to this man weeping. 766 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:26,400 He'd never heard a man weep in the 767 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,400 pulpit And this man believed this book, these 768 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:31,460 judgments were so true He wept. 769 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,560 I heard a preacher once say when I 770 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,220 was a young Christian Can a preacher preach 771 00:41:36,220 --> 00:41:40,850 on hell unless he's wept over it Can 772 00:41:40,850 --> 00:41:43,090 he preach in truth on hell unless he's 773 00:41:43,090 --> 00:41:47,610 wept over it I remember sitting in that 774 00:41:47,610 --> 00:41:53,390 chair trembling And there was that statement My 775 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:06,240 brother ran, he fell He was so fearful 776 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,320 Enough weeping thrown before God And the old 777 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,120

00:42:18,900 --> 00:42:20,780 Christ if it's just love You know God 781 00:42:20,780 --> 00:42:21,220 loves you. 782 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,580 Don't talk about their sin or judgment Would 783 00:42:23,580 --> 00:42:26,740 you give up sin just because God loves 784 00:42:26,740 --> 00:42:29,340 you Would you get desperate about your sin 785 00:42:29,340 --> 00:42:32,060 if you didn't know judgment The God of 786 00:42:32,060 --> 00:42:33,980 love warns you because he loves you of 787 00:42:33,980 --> 00:42:35,920 the judgment you will face And that he's 788 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:36,840 made a way out. 789 00:42:37,300 --> 00:42:40,120 But you have to repent You have to 790 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,220 turn or burn That's what this book preaches. 791 00:42:44,860 -->

doctrinally you know perfectly otherwise I 815 00:44:02,190 --> 00:44:03,570 don't care I just want them. 816 00:44:03,750 --> 00:44:06,650 I want to influence them No the world 817 00:44:06,650 --> 00:44:11,350 is my responsibility Christ Jesus tasted death for 818 00:44:11,350 --> 00:44:15,110 every man this book says And the love 819 00:44:15,110 --> 00:44:18,350 of Christ constrains me to want Every man. 820 00:44:18,710 --> 00:44:21,130 I might not bring every man But I 821 00:44:21,130 --> 00:44:23,350 while I have breath in my body would 822 00:44:23,350 --> 00:44:25,310 do everything in my being To win the 823 00:44:25,310 --> 00:44:26,070 world to God. 824 00:44:26,490 --> 00:44:28,610 Now did God mock such a man Was 825 00:44:28,610 --> 00:44:29,430 that presumptuous? 826 00:44:29,950 --> 00:44:34,010 A bit overboard That man brought two thirds 827 00:44:34,010 --> 00:44:37,050 of Britain's England's population to Christ. 828 00:44:37,790 --> 00:44:40,810 Two thirds of a nation Turned to God 829 00:44:40,810 --> 00:44:44,490 under his ministry Never in England's history did 830 00:44:44,490 --> 00:44:47,890 anything like that ever happen before since The 831 00:44:47,890 --> 00:44:53,230 King of England When Wesley died said Wesley 832 00:44:53,230 --> 00:44:58,730 will be buried In Westminster Abbey Where the 833 00:44:58,730 --> 00:45:00,970 monarchies from the year 810 Lie. 834 00:45:02,230 --> 00:45:06,570 With their efficacies, their bodies Their tombs, their 835 00:45:06,570 --> 00:45:10,790 names Wesley will lie with the kings and 836 00:45:10,790 --> 00:45:15,760 the monarchy of England For never did a 837 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:19,100 man greater service to England In our history 838 00:45:19,100 --> 00:45:24,160 than John Wesley The King of England said. 839 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,180 You see France France had a bloodbath and 840 00:45:27,180 --> 00:45:29,400 the royalty and the nobility were wiped out 841 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:35,120 Most of them slaughtered It was spilling over 842 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:38,440 to England but God raised up Wesley The 843 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:44,160 poor had mercy on the nobility Suddenly found 844 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:48,060 respect for their souls The rich, the wealthy, 845 00:45:48,260 --> 00:45:51,900 the nobleness, multitudes Turned to Christ and suddenly 846 00:45:51,900 --> 00:45:54,500 found compassion on the poor that no nation 847 00:45:54,500 --> 00:45:57,740 Had ever sown in history And England paved 848 00:45:57,740 --> 00:45:59,800 a way for what a Christian nation should 849 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:04,600 be In Wesley's lifetime and thereafter for a 850 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,440 good while The world is my parish. 851 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,320 You know that his name Hundreds of years 852 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,280 after his death still staggers Christians throughout the 853 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,820 world Preachers, their hearts condemning them listening to 854 00:46:16,820 --> 00:46:20,100 his compassion His standard, his uncompromising goal no 855 00:46:20,100 --> 00:46:22,080 matter what rose up against him And what 856 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,100 God did, do you think God mocks a 857 00:46:24,100 --> 00:46:26,460 man And even now all these years later 858 00:46:26,460 --> 00:46:28,340 there's few nations on earth that haven't been 859 00:46:28,340 --> 00:46:32,540 affected Greatly by John Wesley in their history 860 00:46:32,540 --> 00:46:41,580 since his life The world is my parish. 861 00:46:45,810 --> 00:46:48,570 Do you have compassion Sir of the soul 862 00:46:48,570 --> 00:46:51,150 beyond the borders of your own Inner circle 863 00:46:51,150 --> 00:46:52,410 because
