Studies in Psalm 16:-07 — James K. Boswell

Once we have got to try to get a pure mind by way of remembrance. Good. Now the other, It Matters to Him About You. We know that one, so let's sing it out.

It matters to Him about you. It matters to Him about you. All in all, all in all, we all like Him. He's caring for me and He's caring for you. He's sent His Son in the Kingdom of Heaven. It matters to Him about you.

Now let's all rise and sing to reckon yourself to be dead and lead to sin. Crucify with pride that He now may reign within all together.

Crucify with pride that He now may reign within all together. It's to Him that we shall love to kill with life and guilt, but that's the spirit of the Divine.

I see some people not singing that very suggestive, you know, that you don't really know this chorus. Now that's just too bad. We'll sing it once more. If you don't know it, just sing la, la, la. But please do something, will you?

Go on, right.

And reckon yourself to be dead and lead to sin. Crucify with pride that He now may reign within all together. Crucify with pride that He now may reign within all together.

Thank you very much. That's wonderfully well sung. Who has Charles Leading's calendar ready for this morning? Maybe that fits in so well. You know, I thought Greenwood Hills was a marvellous conference.

And there you are. And Boyd, Nicholson, one's ministry seemed to dovetail the one into the other. They knew each other very well. I've never been with our brother Christian before at a conference. I've been there, but I've been doing the ministering, and he has not.

There is conferences, but I've never been at a conference, but I've been so conscious of the Lord's presence, and not only the ministry, but circumstances dovetailing one into the other, proving again the Lord Himself has been really speaking in one way or another to all of our hearts.

I cannot but think we all came here with a real exercise of heart, with a real purpose within our breath, to find out God's will and God's plan for our lives. I trust all of us have really found His will, His blueprint for your life during these days.

Grant, children, the text for today, July the 21st. Ye are bought for the price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's. Ye are bought for the price, being ye not servants of men.

1 Corinthians 6, 20 and 7 and 23. Now, here is a little comment. It is not a fragment of you that has been purchased, but the whole. You would hardly presume to say that the price was inadequate. Yet you do not seem to say so.

How much of your time is the Lord? Do you dress, feed, employ your body as unto the Lord? Is your tongue, your hand consecrated all to Him? Your memory, imagination, hope? Your love and faith? Your house and business?

Your influence? Could anything be more concise and dovetail so well into what we've been listening to all week? Now, Mr. Bowen wasn't here, but the Spirit of God has been here. And see how things are just synchronizing so beautifully?

Now, here's the little verse, the body. Lord Jesus, Thou hast bought me with Thine own precious blood. On the lowly line I'll walk the heavenly road. One is my great salvation, no price have I to pay.

Now from my heart I'll praise Thee and live for Thee each day. May that be the desire of your heart and my heart as we are about to leave this mountaintop. Back to Psalm 16, shall we? And we'll just read it.

Again, to stir up our pure minds by way of remembrance. Have you still got those lovely lemon-sweet peas? I trust you have. Probably you're going to claim, say, I'm also slave to a little rage. Now, I don't know, but I still like it.

Trusting the Lord and Rejoicing in His Presence

Verse number one. Preserve me, O God, for in Thee do I put my trust. Remember the verse our dear brother read this morning regarding our trust in the Lord. If we trust in Him, we shall not slide. Now, isn't that lovely?

If we trust in Him, we shall not slide. Preserve me, O God, for in Thee do I put my trust. In my soul Thou set, and the Lord Thou art my Lord. I have no good beyond Thee. These are three fair points to go away with.

In Thee do I put my trust. Thou art my Lord. I have no good beyond Thee. To the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent in whom is all my delight. Their sorrows shall be multiplied at haste, and after, offer gifts too.

Exchange me for another God. I am quite sure all the other gods have been dealt with. I am quite sure all the idols have been dethroned. And Christ enthroned. Their great offerings of blood will I not offer.

I am not going to offer anything that does not bring glory to God. Nor take up their names into my lips. The Lord is a portion of my inheritance and of my cup. Now I am in tinnitus, my Lord. The lions will fall unto me in pleasant places.

We have proved that. Yea, I have a goodly heritage. The Lord is a portion of my inheritance. I will bless the Lord who has given me counsel. My reigns or my thoughts also instruct me in the night season.

I have set the Lord always before me. Because it is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. He tried to stretch yesterday morning. He was bound to leave his mountaintop. Remember, I have set the Lord always before me.

Because it is at my right hand. Remember Isaiah 41 .10. He is holding our right hand. Hebrews 13 .5. I will never, no, never let go your right hand. So remember the God of the mountain is the God of the valley.

The same holy one says, let us go down now. Let us go down. The people down there are needing this message, needing this light. I am coming with you. I am coming with you. You are not going out alone.

He is coming with you right back into that home. Into that office. Back to that hospital. Into that lab. Yea, I am going with you. Do you believe that children of God? Oh, as we said the other morning, no squinting.

Don't try to get one eye upon Christ, one eye upon your circumstances. Turn both eyes upon Jesus. Look full into His wonderful face. And you will find the things of earth becoming strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.

Don't try to get one eye upon your feelings. One eye upon self and one eye upon Christ. If you do that, you will get despondent and discouraged and really down in the dump. No, no, both eyes must be focused upon Him.

The eyes of understanding. The eyes of your soul linked up with the Lord Himself. Now, here is the point. Therefore, what is it therefore? What is it therefore? You go back to verse one. In thee do I put my trust.

Thou art my Lord. I have no good beyond Thee. The excellent, the saint, in whom is all my delight. No God is my light beside the Lord. I know not any. Lord, thou art my portion. Thou art my inheritance.

Lord, art my counselor. Lord, art my instructor. Lord, I set Thee always before me. You are at my right hand, holding my right hand. And Lord, You have promised never to let it go. Therefore, my heart is glad.

Isn't that true? Therefore, my heart is glad and my glory, my tongue rejoices. You just can't help it, dear children of God. Therefore, my heart is glad. Truly, your heart has been bubbling up with good matter, hasn't it?

Bubbling right up. You've been contemplating the Lord of life and glory. Your heart has said, Why? He's here in the tomb of man. He's altogether lovely. And with him another can be compared. Now look at verse number ten.

For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine holy one to see corruption. Aren't you glad, my friend, this morning that the cross is empty and the tomb is vacated and the throne is filled?

Again, I would draw your attention to this. Look, ye saints, the sight is glorious. See the man of sorrows now. From the fight return victorious every knee. To him shall bow, crown him. Crowned become the mighty, victors prowl.

But now hear again the psalmist say, I will show thee the path of life. In thy presence fullness of joy, thy right hand pleasures forevermore. They say, Can it be any better than it is here? Oh, my friend, we have not even started.

We haven't even touched the fringe of the fullness of joy and pleasures forevermore. I sometimes go homesick for heaven. In the glories I there shall behold the joy of all joys, the glory of all glories.

For me to see him and to fall at his feet and say from our heart, Worthy O Lamb of God, that Thou receive honour and glory and power and dominion, thus now and forevermore. But, beloved, if this glimpse of love is so divinely sweet, what is it going to be above his gladdening smile to me?

Now, I cannot but think the coming of the Lord is very, very near. And it may be this very day the listening sky is now dumb will hear the bridegroom's voice saying, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.

No doubt some of you are already booking up to come back next year. I trust you all have signed up for next year with the desire of bringing others with you. But listen, you may not be here next year.

I believe the Lord's coming is very, very near. We can almost hear His footfall on the threshold of the door. And our souls, our souls are longing to be with Him evermore. Your heart and my heart says, Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

Even so, come today. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. Catch up Thy bride away. Oh, how my heart is yearning, longing for Thy returning. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. Even so, come today. Wouldn't it be wonderful had we just finished the conference with the Communion, sir?

Wouldn't that be wonderful? Brother, will it be fair the other day to be kissing over 5 ,000 people? I've been there many times. There, my friend, were those 5 ,000 people gathered together, remembering the Lord Jesus Christ on a Friday.

On a Friday, there you are remembering the Lord Jesus. What joy! There may be wishful thinking in my part, really. And I would like the Lord to come when we're gathered like this and gathered around Himself.

Wouldn't it just be wonderful to hear fulfilling His last loving request when He said, Just do in remembrance of me and in that very attitude of worship and adoration to hear Him saying, Rise up and come away.

Wouldn't that just be wonderful? Oh, may the reality grip your heart with my heart this morning. Now, we want just to think again of a little bit. Some of you last night, in fact, not all of you came forward here, but I know others in their own hearts used their lives to lower Jesus Christ.

Last night, we met our dear friend sitting in the hall. We'd been waiting for us. Went across. We got down to brass tacks. He said, Some years ago, I trusted Christ, but I forgot extra employment, and he said it was the downfall of my spiritual experience.

He said, I began neglecting my quiet time, neglecting my Bible, neglecting prayer, and it caused a vacuum in my own life. I got just so busy. I got too busy for God. And he said, During these days of comfort, it's broken me down, and I want to come back.

And he came right back. That was wonderful. But when he got upstairs to his wine, he said, See, you don't need to tell me. He said, I've already done it myself. I've already done it myself. And there's a jar there.

He said, I was standing in the hall over there with a baby, and I wanted a grandchild. I was waiting for you to go forward, and I was coming forward with you. I was going, Oh, it's amazing. And I kind of think right here in this auditorium this morning, that many of you right here who did this with God last night in your own heart, that you never openly confessed.

I'm so glad the Lord knows your heart. Isn't that true? But let us be honest. Let us be sincere, deftly, downright, honestly before the Lord. Honest with Him. Honest with ourselves. We need that just before we go back home.

Because we're going to be tested upon our ministry, not only in the giving of it, but on the hearing of it. And we both must give an account when we stand before the judgment as seed of Christ. And this morning, I want you to think.

Presenting the Body as a Living Sacrifice

And I want you to turn back with me, if you will, to Romans chapter 12. Romans and the 12th chapter. But I want also to quote to you if I may, the verse you've already read from the calendar. 1 Corinthians 6, 19 and 20.

It says, What know ye not? You are not to own. I really quote it as it really is. What know ye not? Your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and you are not to own.

For ye are bought for the price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit which are God. Now, come to verse number 1 of Romans 12. I beseech. Notice the language here. No conscription. No compelling.

I beseech. This word beseech is a beautiful word. It means wooing to win. It's a picture of a young man getting down before his young lady. He's singing to woo her into the Holy Spirit of matrimony. Wooing to win.

The old college brethren used to say to us younger fellows, Woo hard for Christ. Woo hard for Christ. I was conducting a wedding at St. Catherine some time ago. And that day, the receptionist and the bride's father got up to give a speech.

He said something like this. He said, Forty-five years ago today, I got down on my knees to propose to my bride. It's taken me all that time to get back on my feet. This is the word right here. I beseech.

I beseech. I would woo that I might win. That's the very thought here. Notice what it says about the subject. It says, I beseech you, therefore, brethren. Brethren. Those who are saved. Those who have been justified.

Those who have been sanctified. It says, I beseech you, brethren. And Paul would only hear this morning, and that great heart of love would go up to your heart with my heart. It says, I beseech you. Oh, I would woo you.

I would woo you. I would woo you to present your body. To present your body. A living sacrifice. But more than Paul is here, more than Jim Boswell is here, the Lord Himself is here. The Lord Himself is here.

And He's looking into your heart as He looks into my heart. It says, I beseech. I love you. I gave my all for you. Oh, will you respond? Will you reciprocate? That's what He's calling for this morning.

And from your heart and from my heart. Time was allowed to develop this. It says, notice the motive now. It's by the mercies of God. By the mercies. I beseech is the language. The subject brethren. Those who are really born again.

And this is the gospel to the Christians. Bringing us to a point of definite decision. Am I going to yield or am I not going to yield? Am I going to present my body or am I not going to present my body?

The same as in preaching the gospel. Every time we say we're preaching the gospel, I can understand how they can go out. I can understand we're so callous and so callous and so cold. Why don't they respond?

But my friend, I'm more concerned about the Christians. I can understand the Christians why they don't respond to a verse like this. I don't. And it breaks my heart. It really does. When the Lord Himself is standing there and says, Oh, I got everything when I was saved.

But wait a minute, my friend. Did you? Did you? All that God had for you in Christ, have you appropriated it? Have you appropriated it all your own? Have you entered in? You never will until you yield.

Until you surrender to Him. Commit your whole life entirely to Him. And notice, I beseech you, brethren. Hymn of God that ye present by the mercy of God. I love this. And notice those mercies for one moment.

Our very preciousness. You got the assurance of pardon and of peace and of power. Now these are yours, Hymn of God, that yours now by receiving Christ as your Lord and Saviour. But now He comes again and says that ye present.

Now that is the method. And then at your handing over, you give a gift. Don't be an Indian giver. Don't give them gonads back. Oh no. Oh no. You give, and you give, my friend, wholly and completely. Remember, in your heart, in my heart, there's a throne and there's a cross.

If self is upon the throne, Christ upon the cross, there's a tug of war up today and down tomorrow. Irritable, moody, sulky. Oh, it's all there. All there. You're losing your temper off at the deep end.

Oh, children of God, listen. Self's upon the throne. But when this is reversed, and the only way to get self off the throne is by allowing the spirit to enthrone Christ, Lord of all. The thing that got through to my good friend last night was Galatians 2 .20.

A threefold deliverance there in that one verse. A deliverance by death. I am crucified with Christ. A deliverance by dethronement. It's no longer I, but Christ that liveth in me. And when Christ is enthroned, self is dethroned.

And the only way to have the dethronement is to enthrone Christ, Lord of all. You can't put self upon the cross. You can't get rid of your old self. Why? You may struggle and strive, but that'll never do any good.

You must allow the spirit of God who indwells you, and I'll deal with this in a moment, to enthrone Christ, Lord of all. And the enthronement is the dethronement of the old self-life. And all the inner serenity, all the inner tranquility, all the joy unspeakable and full of glory, deep dust, that doesn't mean you're going to be immune from testing, and from trial, and from temptation, and from suffering a thousand times.

No. You may get more conscious of those, my friend, but oh, there's a deep still of peace. Why, Lord, you've got the steering wheel. You're not just a steering wheel for an emergency. You've got the steering wheel, Lord.

You know exactly where you're steering, my little lion. You're at the control, Lord. Is He the control of your life? Has He got the circumstances under control in your life? Are you trying to help Him out a little bit here?

Help Him out a little bit there? He wants complete control. Under thy sway, Lord. Under thy sway. Always victorious under thy sway. Have we not, say, repeated and sung from our hearts during these days?

Have thine own way, Lord. Have thine own way. Hold o 'er my being absolute sway. Over thy spiritual all shall see. Christ only always living in me. The method, a death presentation, you say here, don't you?

We say presentation back on the other side. A death presentation. You present. You give. You hand over. Now, have you done that? Can you go back, honestly, to a moment in your life when you deathly and deliberately handed over your body to the indwelling Holy Spirit?

If not, you've never yet started to live. You don't know this abundant life. You don't know the joy of Christ living in you. You don't know this. You know Him in the abstract, field, ethically, scripturally.

But, oh, His Spirit witnessing with your spirit. You know nothing at all about that. All this can all be yours this morning. This joy can be yours this morning. Go home, relax. Lord, not only with me, Luke got mounted, but you're right down here with me in the kitchen, down here in the basement, Lord, wherever.

You're with me all the way. What a wonderful Lord is our Lord. A little further and show me. There's something else I want to touch this morning. Present your bodies, not only the area, your bodies, the whole personality, the whole man, the whole woman, completely handed over.

This is very precious. Time will not develop that either. I wish we were just starting the week's conference now on this one verse alone. But here it is. And notice again, the quality. It's a living sacrifice.

Now, it's much more difficult for you to live, be a living sacrifice in the office, or in the hospital, or in the lab, or right there in the school, on the campus, than to die at the stake as a martyr.

Oh, yes. It's more difficult to live this out-and-out Christian life that passes for a God than it is to die at the stake as a martyr. When you die at the stake as a martyr, it's glory ever after. But day by day, moment by moment, a living sacrifice, holy, and I love this, don't you?

Notice the character. It's so holy. It's holy. I love this. No impurity here. No mixed motive. No ulterior motive. It's a holy sacrifice. And notice the object, will you please? Acceptable unto God. There's the whole thing.

And the whole thing may become acceptable unto God. Do you want to be acceptable before Him? Do you want a real joy in your own heart? Bring real joy to His heart? Here's one way you can do it this morning, dear children of God.

As this old dear child is saying, my child, give me your heart. And once he's got your heart, he's got everything. Isn't that true? Once he's got your heart, he's got my heart, he's got the whole man.

Everything's treasured up there. But out of the heart are the issues of life. Now, notice the sanity of the whole thing now. It is your reasonable, your logical, your rational service. You know what the original word is?

It's your spiritual worship. It's an act of spiritual worship for you this morning to present your body a living sacrifice. The same thought brought up, remember, in Luke chapter 22, verses 19 and 20, where the Lord says, this is my body given for you.

This is my blood shed for you. I love that, don't you? My body given, my blood shed. Now, He gave His body, His body. Now, that brings me to a point. What is the reason for my giving? Just because He gave His body.

And because He gave His blood. Why should I hold back? There was no reservation, no condition when Christ gave His all. The same thought here, present your body. This is my body given. This is my blood shed.

Now, He says, I beseech you, I implore you, I plead with you, give your body a living sacrifice. But please, oh please, don't try and come to Romans 12 .1 and told you've been to Romans 6, that I'm so glad that God crucified so many hearts last night.

Because to come to Romans 12, without going to Romans 6, you're just trying to consecrate flesh, consecrate your old man. And God's old man is being crucified. But as those are alive from the dead now, you come and present your body a living sacrifice.

I love that, don't you? Holy, acceptable to God, with your reasonable service. Now, a young boy back yonder in Scotland, young teenage boy, in a country assembly, as the offering was being taken, it was being taken up an aluminum plate.

And as that plate came, this teenage boy, with sincerity and downright honesty and tears rolling down his young face, he put the plate on the floor and he stood right in that plate and said, Lord, all I am, all I have, I give to Thee.

Now, that is worship. That is worship. Giving. And you're going to give us an act of worship this morning and true gratitude for all He's done for you, for all He wants to do in you. And, friend, He's got far more to do in me than to do through me.

Do you know that? For all He's done for us, all He wants to do in us, and all He wants to do through us. Now, come with me, please, to this next part, verse number 2. Now, notice the outcome. It's free food.

Renewing the Mind and Rejecting Worldly Conformity

Be not conformed to this world. Here it's going to be lived out now. No more conformity. Not to be pressed into the mould of this present age. That's my friend. No conformity. But be transformed, transfigured, changed.

And notice now, by renewing of your mind, by renewing of your mind, that you may know what is that good, or you may prove, what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Now, may I just pause here.

I want to deal for a moment with that word, renewing. The renewing of your mind. Now, many of you last night, in your own hearts, and some publicly, came to that point of yielding. Lord, I, and with all sincerity, no humbug, no veneer, no varnish, but deep down in your own hearts, you yielded to Him, and to the Spirit's control.

Now, notice, probably this morning, what did you do? What did you do? Did you look up and say, Lord, I'm still Thine. That's renewing your mind. When temptation crosses past me, renew your mind, Lord, look after your property, it's in danger.

Remember, you belong to Him. A girl had a terrible temper. She was a very sweet, lovely, good-looking teenage girl. But God met her, and God saved her. But she had one besetting sin. It was that nasty temper, before she was converted.

And after God met her, and God saved her, the real transformation took place in her young life, and some of the older sisters got really jealous of her. Because she began to grow and develop and mature in the women's prayer meeting, she just simply shone.

And some of the women got very jealous of her, the older women. And say one woman said, in a catty kind of way, you used to have a very bad temper. You don't have a bad temper anymore. Do you lose your temper now?

In a very sweet way she said, when I'm tempted, when Satan comes knocking at my hard door, and asks me to fly off the handle, I just say, please Lord Jesus, will you answer the door? And when Satan sees him, says, I'm sorry, I'm at the wrong door.

And passes on. Simple, but have you learned that? That's renewing your mind. You're not your own. You're not your own. There was a boy at school terribly troubled by a big bully. This bully was continually after this boy.

And one day he saw his big brother in the playground, and he ran behind his big brother. Then from behind his brother he said, come on now, it's a bully. Come on now, he said to the bully. Because when the bully that the big brother took over and dealt with the bully.

Now listen, even though you've yielded, you've got a bully not to leave you alone. Oh no, that you're not to try and fight him in your own strength because you're defeated before you start. But then remember, you've got one, and through him you're more than a conqueror.

Just trust it. When the temptation comes, Lord, Lord, in thy name I refuse that thought. I refuse to be despondent. I'm quoting from Proverbs 18 verse 10, The name of the Lord is a strong tower. The righteous run into it, and they are saved in that strong tower.

And friends, when you just feel like getting dumped, and the only way the devil can really get you is through your body, through your five senses, that's why I say, yield your body to control the indwelling Holy Spirit this morning.

And it was going to happen when he comes and all his family to look up and say, with all sincerity, in the name of Christ, I refuse to be despondent. I refuse to be discouraged. I refuse to be afraid.

And when that stupid, impure thought passes through your mind, in the name of Christ, I refuse that thought. You're renewing your mind. You don't belong to yourself, you belong to him. Got what I'm getting at?

You're yielded. You continue to yield. Last night was a dead man. There's another thing about rededication. You don't rededicate. Not at all. You don't even reheal. You come and say, Lord, this is all part of the initial yielding.

This morning, Lord put his finger upon certain areas of your life that you did not yield last night. You didn't even know about. For all you knew of yourself, all you had, you yielded last night. And you meant it with all sincerity.

But this morning, he put his finger upon some other area. Now what are you going to do? You don't go back and reheal. Say, Lord, this is all part of the initial yielding. And you'll yield that area too.

And what joy will be your joy and his joy? The renewing of your mind. How I wish I got down to the verses. I was really meant to talk this morning on getting a missionary vision. I really did. That was my theme.

The Missionary Vision: From Spiritual Insight to Action

The missionary vision. Because as you're just about to leave this mountain top, may I just suggest this to you? I'm trying to dovetail in my good brother's message with you. The missionary vision. Now here's a mouthful.

I'm glad it's going on the tape because you were never able to remember it. Here it is. A missionary vision is the blending together of correct information with spirit-begotten inspiration that leads to death and action.

Now can you remember all that? Let me ask you that again. It is the blending together of correct information with spirit-begotten inspiration that leads to death and action. Now listen. Vision without mission is visionary.

Whereas mission without vision is drudgery. And I want you to get this. A vision is only of value when it becomes the inspiration of vocation. Do you know that? Now you've had a wonderful vision on the top here.

A wonderful vision. You've had a wonderful vision of the Lord Jesus, His claim upon your life. And many of you, I don't think all of you, yielded to His pleading and responded to the entity. Oh now listen.

That vision will only become of value when it becomes inspiration of vocation. You've got to act upon what you see. Act upon it in the power of the Spirit of God. May I just draw your attention to this very, very quickly.

Where there is no vision, that people perish. Isaiah said, And the year King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord high and lifted up. And it may be right here in this 1972 conference at Lugart Mountain. Your Uzziah has died.

Your Uzziah has died. As long as your Uzziah for 55 years are alive, you'll never hear a prophet saying, I saw the Lord high and lifted up. Oh no. What is the Uzziah? There is a man, often stand betwixt me in thy glory.

His name is self. My carnal self. Stand betwixt me in thy glory. Oh mortify Him. Mortify Him. Put Him down, my Savior. And exalt Thyself alone. And because you've come to recognize that great big cup of life cancelled up until it becomes absolutely nothing at all.

A man going up the door said to me one night, Jim, I've learned the secret. I am absolutely nothing. It's easy to say that. A man said the other night, he said, Jim, will you pray? I am absolutely nothing.

I said, that's just what you are. And he didn't like it. He didn't like it. Another woman came and said, I am proud, I am humble. What a thing to say. May I help you? May I help you right here? May I warn you, get the vision, a clear vision, no squinting, of your adorable Lord Jesus Christ in all His solitude, dignity and glory.

Now listen. When he had the vision, then he heard the voice. Whom shall I send and who will go? Then he volunteered. Here am I, said me. And when self is standing in the way, you'll never hear the voice.

And you slept and will never volunteer. Isn't that true? John chapter twenty, what do I read? I see the Lord there in the upper room. They saw Him. They saw the neoprince in His hand. He saw the spirit of ensign.

Then they heard the voice. As my Father sent me, so send I you. So send I you down into that valley. But I am coming with you. I am coming. What does it say? Matthew's gospel, go and more. I am with you all the way.

Isn't that a wonderful consolation? And it was that great man of God, the late H .A. Doctor, David Livingstone, who wrote in the Marginalized Bible against Matthew 28, 19 and 20, the words of a perfect gentleman who has never failed to fulfill a promise.

Got that? The words of a perfect gentleman who has never failed to fulfill a promise. Go and more. I am with you. The missionary vision, what does it say? Your mind must be informed. You must think. You must think.
