Greetings this morning In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ the dear lamb of God. I counted a privilege to be here. I'm Paul Hirschberger from Ohio. Some ways I feel like one of you In that many a Bible school and remember being young very well yet.

It seems to me. But I'm starting to understand what people mean by 40 year old young people. Life keeps going but oh to stay young at heart, and I trust this week sharing with you that I Can stay young at heart?

That's my heart this morning. Be one of you and just share God's Word. The focus of the week that I'd like to use this this week is setting a standard for life and The burden of my heart is looking out across this group and there's about 650 Opportunities sitting here.

There's about 650 Purposes sitting here. There's about 650 Missionaries sitting here. There are 650 opportunities and callings sitting here. The question is what are we going to do with it? What are we going to do with it and the burden? I have is that we could see what we do in our youth Will affect the rest of a life.

Establishing Spiritual Standards in Youth

To be able to get a grasp That what I do when I'm young Majorly affects my life. It is important if you're sitting here this morning. And you're wondering why am I here? I'd have a burning passion in my heart that by the time this week is over that one is all settled.

Because there's a clear reason for your life. We don't know how long we're going to live any of us. We don't know that we need to be ready to die at any time and Yet we need to prepare for life like I'm going to be 90 or 100 years old when I die and that's the burden on my heart this morning as that we could lay a Foundation of Standards in our youth each one of us Individually for our own life that we can build on the rest of our lives.

I've realized in the last few years How often I look at my own heart and I consider before I God where am I and I turn back in my? mind. To when I was young When I had energy Just abounding when I had time to use and Very little responsibility.

I'd like to Convince you that you'll never have any more time than you do when you're young. You could just believe me that that is so. For me, it's about 15 years later Since I got married and I think all of the married people here would agree when you're young you have more time and Free life than any other time in your life as the busyness of life.

Presses in it's not as easy anymore takes more effort takes more determination, and if you've laid a foundation of standards in your youth of Following God and seeking after God you can go back to that and say here's what I need to do.

And it becomes a springboard it becomes a motivation. Learning the scriptures and learning how to pray and having burdens after God and all of that Becomes so important when the pressure is on the responsibilities heavy.

You could turn to Psalm 71. Ecclesiastes 12 verse 1 says remember now thy creator in the days of thy youth. While the evil days come not nor the wait years draw nigh before your old. Remember now thy creator in the days of thy youth, and I'm trusting that by being here today.

That's what we're doing by being here this week. We're remembering our creator in the days of our youth. The word standard simply means to establish Something as a rule or a model. Establishing something as a rule or a model and The the burden I have this week is that we could take some important things in The spiritual life and make them a rule of our life and a model of our life.

Not a box that we put ourselves in but something that has the relationship of Jesus Christ in it with a burning hearts passion to please him and to be like him that we can all our lives go back to in the Days when I was young and follow that rule and that model that we set forth when we were young you know Paul told Timothy that he should be an example of the believers and Timothy was pretty young.

But if we could at least in our youth set an example for ourselves for the rest of our life the rest will fall into place if We could set that rule and that standard in our lives. That God wants us to have the rest of our life can be built on that.

It can. Psalm 71 verse 1 through 5. David is saying in thee O Lord do I put my trust let me never be put to confusion. Deliver me in thy righteousness and cause me to escape. Incline thine ear unto me and save me.

Be thou my strong habitation. Where unto I may continually resort. Thou has given commandment to save me for thou art my rock and my fortress. Deliver me. Oh my God out of the hand of the wicked out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.

Thou art my hope. O Lord God thou art my trust from my youth. Thou art my trust from my youth. Like to turn to verse 16. Same chapter. I will go in the strength of the Lord God. I will make mention of thy righteousness even of thine only.

Oh God thou has taught me from my youth and Hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works now. Also now also when I am old and gray headed Oh God forsake me not. Until I have showed thy strength unto this generation and thy power to everyone that is come.

Here is David in his old age, and he's saying Lord Meet me Deliver me be my strong tower be the place I can escape to. That I can resort to like when I was young. Now David he was that shepherd boy that was out there on the hills watching the sheep.

And he'd sing to God and he'd bless God and God met him out there in the wilderness. Alone he could have been wondering why am I out here? I'm just watching sheep, but there he was. Just watching sheep.

But loving his Redeemer loving his Lord giving his life. Pouring out his soul to the God of heaven and the riches of heaven open up over his life now. Here's David in his old age, and he's looking back to those years that he spent there alone with God out in the wilderness.

He's saying God would you meet me like you did out there in the wilderness God. Would you meet me that way. That's the burning passion of my heart that we could all see. If we can establish that relationship with Jesus with the God of heaven and we can establish our spiritual lives in such a way that heaven Opens over our lives, and there's a beautiful Radiance and magnificence of Jesus relate being revealed in our lives is coming flowing forward and forth and forth.

Like they did out of David All the days of our life. We can look back and say God would you meet me like you did in the days of my youth? I tell you it's a treasure. It's a treasure if there's no other reason for you in your youth.

That's the only one we need. My brother my sister. That's the only one we need. To sell out the Jesus get alone with God learn to know him. Fellowship with him have that sweet fellowship. The day comes when we'll want to look back and say oh God.

Would you meet me like you did back there in the wilderness wherever it is out there, but hurting the sheep looking in the heaven. Singing. Fellowshipping loving his word submitted and surrendered. There he was.

Just watching sheep, but all way more than watching sheep. Sometimes young people we look at life. And we'd like to leapfrog way into the future and get some honorable position that we have framed in our minds.

Of being this super spiritual Christian and really we need to see. That just watching sheep is not just watching sheep if we're serving Jesus. In the middle of that with all of the hearts, it's not just watching sheep.

It's learning to know my God. It's learning to know Jesus. He had built a relationship with God in his youth that youth that followed him all the days of his life. What a rich treasure. Proverbs 8 verse 17.

I Love them that love me and those that seek me early Shall find me. He says isn't that sweet. Those that seek me early shall find me. My dear young person I Guarantee it to you if you will seek God this week.

He has to be found. He's to be found. He's not hiding somewhere making it hard to find him. If we'll seek him we can find him. We can find him. Those that seek me early Shall find me. I love them that love me.

He says I Love them that love me. Oh for that sweet place. This best basking in the love of Jesus and then living there. Well, that's the burden this week that we can just Get a glimpse of some beautiful things.

That we need to establish in our youth as young people. We need to set forth a model. We need to set forth a Guideline. We need to set forth a rule if I can say it that way don't take that legalistically and yet a Standard something to go by.

You know as I look down the aisle here someone had something to go by. The chairs are pretty straight. And we all know why they are it's because there's a line right down through there. If we could have those lines established in our lives of how to walk with Jesus I'm gonna see it'll be a fruitful life.

It'll be a fruitful life today, I'd like to focus on Jesus Lord of all. Jesus Lord of all. I Believe that's the first principle and the most important one that we need to establish in our hearts and lives as young people.

Jesus Christ as Lord of All

It's Jesus Lord of all. Acts chapter 2 verse 36 therefore Let the house of Israel know assuredly that God Has made that same Jesus Whom he crucified both Lord and Christ. I was blessed with what brother Rick said this morning about how often Lord is in the Bible and how often Savior is in the Bible and what I'd like to Share this is right in the beginning where the church was established.

It was made very clear that Jesus is not just Savior. He's not just Christ. He's not just Redeemer. He is Lord. He is going to rule. Everything is going to listen to him. Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that he is Lord to the glory of God.

The father and when God says so it's going to happen. So Jesus Lord of all. I'd like to use an illustration this morning. We're going to pretend or imagine whichever way you want to say it that this glass is a heart or our life.

And I don't know where we find ourselves this morning. But you might be in here and you found your heart that it's full of ugly hard. Stones that are dirty that are filthy. Your heart is crusted over my friend.

I would like you to consider Jesus. Jesus said we're to break up the fallow ground and if a heart looks like this where it's full of hard stones. It's full of hard spots. It's all lumpy. And then there's something that happens.

Sometimes we find ourselves in that condition. And we're getting concerned about the condition of a heart doesn't look very good. If I asked you to come take a drink of this wonderful fresh water right now.

You wouldn't be very interested. Would you we get concerned about how it looks not very appetizing a Lot of things that don't look good. And I have a burden about my heart looking like that. So I need to do something about it.

We'll just put Jesus on. Fixes it all up, doesn't it? Looks much better now. Doesn't it I? Mean we've got Jesus in the picture at least nobody else should notice. But my friend the message of that is we do exactly that.

We do exactly that. We see a heart. It's got a lot of ugly things in it. It's got a lot of sin in it. It's got a lot of ungodliness in it dirt and filth and self is in our hearts. And everybody's seeing it.

So I get a label out and I put Jesus on it. Not supposed to fix it all up, but let's remember Jesus is to be Lord of all and in this condition Jesus is not Lord of all. Well, if that doesn't suffice. Let's help it out.

Put some living water in there. That'll surely help that looks different even that's changed things a bit hasn't it. Now I have a little bit of bubbliness about me. I've got Jesus on me and Surely people can see that things have changed a bit.

Then they might have my friend but Jesus is not Lord of all if we have a heart that's full of sin. Then Jesus is not what he needs to be in my heart in life. If we have a heart that allows ungodliness.

That allows bitter ending and strife to be in it or rebellion lying pride. Then Jesus is not Lord of all. And so many times in our day people want Jesus to be Savior. They want him to be their Savior.

They want to tag him onto their life and try to pour some religion into their lives and make ourselves look like we're good. But my friend I'm here to plead with you to make a standard in your life. That Jesus has to be Lord of all or not Lord not Lord at all.

Jesus needs to be Lord of all or not Lord at all. We can't go this way. Well, then we're gonna have to start confessing sins. Getting rid of some things and the burden is getting lighter. Starting to feel a little bit clear.

We'll just confess the number of them. See if we can get a heart to feel a little bit better. What a relief. I have unloaded a whole bunch of sin. I've cleared a lot of things in my life. What a blessing what a joy fact we need to add a little bit more water a Little bit more of Jesus in there.

What a wonderful life if you want to drink now. None of us want to drink out of this glass, do we? It looks worse than it did doesn't it. Because now we were in there stirring things around. Yes, we've unloaded some that's a half-hearted Christian life.

That's confessing and getting out and unloading what I think I have to in order to get by. I Mean I need to convince people that I've changed. Yeah. I'll probably have changed some but Jesus is not Lord of all and We won't have that beautiful radiance coming out of our lives that David had out there in the desert and the wilderness alone with God.

It won't come out that way. Doing it this way. Just half-hearted. Well probably better off if I got rid of it. Whoo, that was a big one. If we'll just keep confessing sins. Pouring hearts out before God and let him purges and cleanses that a little bit more water again.

Mm-hmm. I mean my heart's just about empty. I've really poured myself out before God on a dream. Still nobody wants a drink and it's because There's sin left. Actually, there's one stone left in there and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Did you know we often do that too? We clean it all out except that one spot that's too embarrassing. It's too embarrassing. It's too shameful. I don't want to talk about it. It'd be too humiliating to open that one up and let others see that.

You know God knows all about it. He knows all about it. Maybe it's too painful. There's something that happened to me. That's too painful. And it's too hard to talk about it we convince ourselves. Maybe there's something that someone did and they threatened you don't you ever tell anybody about that?

Well, I'm gonna do so and so to you those things happen. Therefore we let it tucked away there in the back corner of a heart. It's a secret reserve spot just for me is Is Jesus Lord of all that way we need to come to Jesus and just Pour it all out and ask him to wash us.

Let him go in there scrub us. Clean things up like only he can and it might take a process it might take some time. It might take some travail and agony. It might not just be Quickly doing a little bit something.

To suffice everyone still have a couple specks. We need to be washed. Cleaned by the precious blood of Jesus just look any better. And my friend, this is what we can all look like if we give Jesus everything we have.

Everything we have no reserves nothing to hide. Lord Jesus walk through my heart. Search me and try me see whether be any wicked way within me. And if we will set this kind of a standard for our lives that Jesus is Lord of all.

I promise you one thing you'll have a sweet life walking with Jesus. You'll have a blessed life following Jesus. You'll have a fruitful life. Enjoying his presence. His grace will come down upon your heart my friend like you've never had or seen before.

Oh the beauties of heaven will just come shining forth. In fact, if we have this kind of a heart There's something that will happen as we keep walking with the Lord and serving him. He'll keep pouring it in and it'll just run right over.

Hallelujah. What better life could we have than serving Jesus with all of our heart. Giving him everything we have make him Lord of our lives. Jesus be Lord of all or not Lord at all. Oh. To set that standard in our youth when we're young when we're full of zest and serving God.

Romans 12 verse 1 says. I beseech you therefore brethren by the mercies of God that you present your bodies a living sacrifice. Holy acceptable under God, which is your reasonable service. We need to totally give ourselves to Jesus and it's only reasonable my friend.

It's only reasonable that we make him Lord of our lives. He didn't just die to put a smile on our face. He died that we would serve him that that Relationship that was broken back in the garden with man would be restored and that man could walk with the living God.

False Conversions and the Fruit of Genuine Faith

The problem is We're not all in that place. We're not all in that place. I'd like to take a little bit of time here to focus a little bit on false conversions. False conversions. Luke chapter 6 you can turn there if you want false conversions.

Conversions where Jesus is not Lord of all and my friend. It won't come out the same before God. It looks just like the illustration we looked at here this morning. It looks just like that and the fruitfulness and overflowing of God's Spirit and God's Word In our hearts will not come until it's Lord of all.

Being Jesus Christ. Luke chapter 6 verse 43. For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit. Neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs nor of bramble bush gather they grapes a Good man out of the good treasure of his heart bring it forth that which is good and an evil man out of the evil Treasure of his heart bring it forth that which is evil.

For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. And Why I call you me Lord Lord and do not the things that I say. Oh. The heart of Jesus is crying here. Why do you call me Lord Lord and do not the things that I say?

It says out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. You don't go. Gather wonderful fruits of the spirit of of a heart that is full of sin. The same way as you don't go pick the fruits of sin and foolishness and ungodliness.

Off of a heart that is crystal clear my friend. It doesn't work. It doesn't work that way. It won't come out that way. Fruitlessness. Oh, I'm born again. I'm born again. I've been saved. I've been saved.

But there's fruitlessness. There's no fruit of the spirit coming out of our lives. Love joy peace long suffering temperance meekness gentleness. We can act like there's peace. We can put love smiley face on enjoy while everybody else sees.

But you know really down deep in our hearts, we know what's there don't we. We know what's there. Fruitlessness. A five-year-old conversion. A Five-year-old conversion. I was just a five-year-old and I said Jesus come into my heart because I don't want to go to hell.

My friend I'm here to plead with you. That's a false conversion. Escaping hell isn't why we get saved even though that's part of it. That's one of the benefits. Standing at a meeting I Stood up to acknowledge Jesus.

And I'm not going to say that if your heart isn't right that that can't happen. But normally it doesn't do anything for us except deceive us accepting Jesus without confession of sin. Accepting Jesus and this is rampant through the land today.

Well, I'll accept Jesus as my Savior my friend. Is that what the Bible teaches? Is that what the Bible teaches? And we'll look at what the Bible teaches on some of these things yet, but I'd like to just ask you to consider that as a false conversion.

I've tried it and it just doesn't work for me. It doesn't work for me. My friend I'm here to say we make Jesus Christ Lord of all. It will work. It will work if it didn't work that it was a false conversion.

No power over sin. No power over sin. Oh, I accepted Jesus. But you need to accept me how I am just living in sin my friend. I'd like to plead with you if you don't have power over sin consider a false conversion.

I Don't enjoy the Christian life. It's okay, I know you have to be a Christian in order to get to heaven, but it's no big excitement to me. My friend I'd like you to consider that as a false conversion.

That's not the abundant life and Jesus gives us the abundant life. It will make him Lord of all. It will make him Lord of all. No assurance. No assurance. You know the Bible says that God comes by his spirit, and he bears witness in our hearts.

That he has received us, and if that hasn't fret happened my friend considered a false conversion. I Don't care how good your counselor is. I don't know how much I care how much they walk with God. And how wise they are.

Our counselor cannot give us assurance. My friend mom and dad cannot give us assurance. Growing up in a Christian home will not give us assurance. We need to surrender to Jesus Christ completely as Lord of all and let him take control of our lives and let him give us Assurance and if that happens nobody can talk you out of it.

I'm not involved in the work of God. I'm just disinterested that you know some people are called to that. Aren't we all called? Aren't we all called? Actually, we're called to be predestinated into the image of his son.

And if we name the name of Jesus. We're caught called to give him Lord make him Lord of all. If I'm not interested in the work of God. Something is badly wrong. Look at it. Maybe it's a false conversion.

No fellowship or love for God's people. Oh I'm a Christian. But sitting down and just talking about the Bible and conversing and rejoicing in the goodness of God is our thought uncomfortable my friend.

The Bible says if we don't love those kind of things back in John. It says it very clearly. We're not walking the light. We don't love God's people. We don't love him no matter how hard we try to say we do.

Considered a false conversion. No love for the Bible or unable to understand the Bible. Oh God's Word is a treasure. Is a lamp for our feet a little bit like a black man. He had this clock. That didn't work.

And he took the hands off and he took it to the man to fix it the the clock man. And he told him these hands don't want to go anymore. I Can get him going and they won't go any longer than six months.

And the watchman looked at him. He said well, where's the clock. And the man told him well? I told you it's the hands the hands won't go. The only reason you want the clock is so you can tinker with it and send me a big bill.

Sounds almost comical. How often do we come to God? With the hands here Lord fix this and God says Where's the clock? Where's the heart? Where's the center of the problem? Will you bring that to me? Are we saying Lord?

I want to bring you the hands because the bill is too big if I bring you the roots and The bill is giving up ourselves. Giving up my will. Surrendering my life completely to him and make him Lord of my life.

That's the bill. Second Corinthians 13 5 says examine yourselves. Whether you be in the faith. Prove your own selves. You know we can claim to be Christians. But if we're living in sin We're not of God.

The Universal Problem of Sin

We're not of God. We cannot live in sin and serve Jesus with all of our hearts. Secondly I'd like to look at all have sinned all have sinned. There's a couple verses. I'd like to read Romans 5 verse 19, and then I'm going to read a few in Romans 13 for as by one man's Disobedience that is Adam many were made sinners so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

Adams sinned in the beginning and the Bible tells us that we have all become sinners. Because we're descendants of Adam in one man's disobedience many were made sinners. Romans chapter 3 verse 12 they are all gone out of the way they are together become Unprofitable.

There is none that doeth good. No, not one. How many of us in this room are left after that. Not one right. The Bible also says that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. There'd be a lot more verses we could quote but for the sake of time this morning I'm not going to do that.

All have sinned. All have sinned. We have all sinned. We have all failed. I'm Standing here as a man before you this morning that is subject to fail today if I do something in the flesh. Therefore it becomes an awesome thing to walk with the Living God.

I Want a heart passion to make him Lord of all so I can be free from sin and whenever sin comes up I deal with it right away. All Have sinned. Well sin separates us from God. Sin separates us from God.

Repentance and Returning to the Father

So what are we going to do? I'm separated from God so thirdly I'd like to look at Acts chapter 2 verse 38 and 39. The people were listening the people of Peter preached and they were Convicted. They were pricked and the hearts they wondered what shall we do we have?

Crucified the Lord Jesus Christ which God is made Lord and Christ we have crucified him we are sinners. We are undone. What shall we do Peter? Apostles what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them repent.

Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ. For the remission of sins and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. I'd like to get the word repent here repent repent. In order to help us understand repent a little bit.

I'd like you to think about the prodigal son. He said dad. I want my inheritance. Give me that portion which is mine to have and his father did. He packed up his bags not many days after and he left. Then he went out and he lived it up.

He had many friends at all kinds of parties. He lived in sin and ungodliness and filth of the flesh Served himself and then the money ran out. He ended up in the pigpen and it says he came to his senses and He realized how lost he was how foolish he was how ungodly he was and how he's messed up his life.

And he said I know what I'll do. I'm going to go back home to my father and Ask him to be one of his servants. He was walking away from his father serving the flesh serving sin Fulfilling the lust of the flesh and he decided I'm going to go home, and I'm going to serve my father.

There is a father in heaven that is our father whether we serve him or not. He is our father and If we're walking away from him living in sin living in ungodliness Not yielding ourselves to him fulfilling the lust of the flesh living in rebellion.

Living my own way. Maybe half cleaned out. It's time to repent and Turn around and say I'm going to serve my father. You know he didn't just sit there in the pigpen waiting For the father to come find you.

You know if dad came and got me. I I would be. I'd be very glad to go home with you. He said I'm going home to my father. I'm going home to my father. Repentance is saying I am a sinner. I am Ungodly.

I am unrighteous and unholy. I need to get up and go home to my father. I Don't come like I deserve to be a son. I come like a humble servant. Could I just be one of your servants Lord? He came home in the frame of mind.

Oh Wretched man that I am dead. I need your forgiveness. Who shall deliver me? From the body of this death. Today the message message is I thank God through Jesus Christ our Savior. Lord Lord Jesus Lord of all.

Confession, Cleansing, and Mercy

Jesus Lord of all. When we accept Jesus we're accepting him on our terms. When we kneel in repentance. Desperate heavy-hearted troubled Crying out to God then we meet God on God's terms and my friend.

That's when we get the clear heart that is overflowing. That's when we get that number four confession of sin. First John 1 9 says if we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all Unrighteousness.

All of it. It's all gone. I didn't ask anybody whether I could give you a drink. But I think I could probably find a volunteer now. That's the kind of heart Jesus once he cleanses us from all unrighteousness.

He doesn't just get the stones out. Gets all the grime that was with it, too. He wants the cleanses from all unrighteousness. But Proverbs 28 13 says he that covereth his sins shall not prosper. He that covereth his sins shall not prosper.

He that puts the label Jesus on it. And just wants to keep going or tries to put his hands around it and protect it. So nobody sees it. The Bible says if we do that, we're not going to prosper. Life will not come out as an abundant Christian life that way we'll never get any way with Jesus anywhere with Jesus but who so confesses and forsaketh them shall have mercy.

Who so confesses and forsaketh them shall have mercy. And my friend? We need the mercy of God. Because God is a holy Just and righteous God that will have nothing to do with sin to the point that he deserted his own son on the cross.

When he took our sins upon him His beloved son he forsook him because of sin. We need the mercy of God, but if we'll come repenting and Confessing our sins and just being open get it all out pour it out without reserve.

The Bible says we shall have mercy. And we all need mercy. If God would require an exact of me that which I deserve I'm damned without a shadow of a doubt. Number five Believing. And I'm going to use a familiar verse again.

Believing in Christ for Eternal Life

And I want you to get the idea here. It's not some stuck away thing that is difficult. The gospel is simple. Lordship salvation is plain and clear and it's right there for us to see John 3 16 for God so loved the world that whosoever believeth in him.

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. Now we've seen some clear scriptures familiar scriptures that say we need to repent we need to confess our sin.

Now he's telling us we need to believe in Jesus Christ for eternal life. The Bible also tells us that without the shedding of blood there is no remission on The cross. God forsook his only begotten son the Lord Jesus Christ.

Because of our sin and then in that condition he did what? Shed his blood. Why? To pay for our sin to pay for our sin. Now here I am. I'm a sinner and I see that I'm a sinner. I'm lost. I need to repent.

I need to give just open it all up and pour it out. And then I need to believe in Jesus and in the blood that was shed on the cross. For the forgiveness of my sin, and we can't say here. Let me scrub a bunch of it up, and then you do the rest Lord.

We need to come to Jesus as we are and just dump that whole thing out without reserve. I have sinned. I Have pride in my heart. I'm a liar. I'm a fornicator. I'm rebellious Lord over the Bible says if we will confess our sins and just come out with it and not cover them.

We can have that blessing of mercy on our lives where God's heart is moved. He says oh my dear young soul. Yes, I will. You're forgiven. You're forgiven. Hallelujah, I Tell you it's the best answer in life and Jesus is that answer.
