Do You Know Him？ — Malachi O'Brien

Jesus one thing. We're not about a million different things. We're about one thing and I believe that although this world is getting this world Is getting darker and darker. I Believe Jesus can turn it all around and although my heart cries out Maranatha come Lord Jesus.

Please come back now I'm also praying for a move of God that he was he withholds judgment for a generation and. And that 50 60 years from now when we're all still here, but just a little bit older. We'll tell the stories of what Jesus did.

That's what I believe. So I want you guys to stick with me about 20 minutes or so today 20 -25 minutes. The invitation will be public today. I'm not gonna bow heads and close eyes, but I believe some of you gonna come to Jesus Today, I believe some of you're gonna come back to Jesus today.

Jesus’ Radical Sermon on the Mount

We're in the Sermon on the Mount which is the it's just the sermon Jesus preachers By the way is the greatest sermon of all time. Not my sermon doesn't even make that list. Okay Shannon's might and K was might but mine don't all right, but Jesus's sermon tops the list and everything Jesus preached It it was radical like Jesus did.

I guess Jesus didn't read the book and how how to like make people feel better. How to get more views and likes, you know Jesus just went for the heart. What you need today is for Jesus to go for your heart today.

Because many of you are tired I mean you are exhausted of searching for something to fulfill what you're longing for and I'm telling you it's Jesus. But you say but I've tried that have you really have you really Matthew?

Here we are. We're in the Sermon on the Mount and what I where I want to take you this morning is the Sermon the Mount goes to Matthew 5 Matthew 6 Matthew 7 and I want to take you to Jesus's closing illustration.

The Coming Judgment and the Question of Whether Jesus Knows You

Before he gives the invitation. All right, they taught us in sermon preparation. You know, I mean I God called me to preach at 13 years old okay, and I'm not. I've been preaching for a long time doesn't mean I'm better at it.

I've just been doing it for a long time and they and I remember when my pastor took me into his office I was a seventh grader and he took me in his office every two weeks need he told me things like Sit up front in church.

Well, I do that not because he told me to because if I don't I'm ADD I'll pay I'll get a cell so sidetracked. He said I you know, we're tied to church. I sometimes do that. But he also said when you when you preach give Illustrations because it opens up so people can relate and so as I look at the sermon Jesus was preaching about he gives an illustration about a moment in time.

That's gonna it's going to happen not might happen night might it's going to happen. It's it's a day When everybody stands before his throne. Again this is not a make-believe things gonna happen. So I want to I want to if you can stay in this room for the next 25 minutes do not get out of this Room if you're on the live stream, do not go flip the ten other live streams right now.

All right he has given a illustration of a day that's going to happen and What he says next in this illustration, we don't want to hear. You don't want to hear. Because it's terrifying. So I'm not necessarily bringing you the most optimistic positive and I'm a listen I think my I don't know my blood type is but if I had to get to be positive, right?

I'm just that's who I am. All right, I live to make coffee nervous. All right. If I see a shark, it's not a shark. It's a dolphin with teeth. That's great. Go pet it. All right, go swim with it. You know, I mean, that's my personality.

All right. But man this illustration I Mean, you know Jesus. Jesus obviously wasn't trying to draw a crowd because this is what pushes people away. I'm not we're not here as a church to try to get how many people can we get on a Sunday morning?

That's that's you say if we if we want to do that, that's easy. I just I just put on Facebook anyone who comes to Pleasant Ridge gets a hundred bucks every week and we'd fill it up. And we'd go broke.

So anyway, and then we wouldn't be able to pay Shannon and Caleb and that'd be terrible. So I'd still get paid. But no, you're sorry. Joking. Here we go. Matthew chapter number seven and In verse number 21.

And let me give you let me just say this and I mean, let me lay a question before you and The question is not do you know God? But my question to you is does God know you? I Didn't ask you in the series on rethink Church on Do you know God?

My question is does God know you? Because there's coming a day that if God does not know you. You do not spend eternity with God. Going to heaven has nothing to do with being good or being bad. Good people go to hell bad people go to hell.

Jesus did not come to make people a little bit better. He came so dead people could live. The eternal life is not dependent on whether you know Christ. But whether he knows you. If he had a relationship with you.

Then you would then he would have taken up residence in your life and you'd be filled with the Spirit your life would be a reflection Of his holiness. When he spoke you would hear and respond to his will.

Obedience not activity is a sign of relationship. So here's the passage red letter edition. And you guys got Bibles have red letters in them just kind of curiosity. Okay, if we're being honest the whole Bible ought to be red letter.

But anyway, all right verse 21 If you're with me say amen. Okay, here we go. Buckle up. All right. This is this is strong medicine right here Jack. This is not for the faint of heart. You guys with me?

Not everyone Who says to me Lord Lord Shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he Who does the will of my father in heaven. I'll break this down in just a second. But I want but you need to hear this again.

Many will say to me. Okay, many will say to me on that day. Lord Lord. Have we not prophesied in your name. Cast out demons in your name and done many wonders in your name and went to Pleasant Ridge in your name and Listened to Christian radio in your name and owned four or five Bibles.

We never read in your name. Hmm. I wonder what Jesus says to that crowd. Thanks for doing that man, I really needed your help. Jesus doesn't need our help. He doesn't need us. We need him. Then get this verse 23.

So what does he say to the people that say Lord Lord? I got the t-shirt. I got the Christian bumper sticker home. Can you love Jesus, you know and I've got all those things and every now and then I put some things on Facebook that are that.

You know, what does he say to that crowd that that talks about all the stuff they've done for Jesus. But doesn't but he doesn't know them. He says here in verse 23, then I will declare to them. I never knew you depart from me you who practice lawlessness lawlessness.

He's obviously Jesus obviously is mistaken. How can people who who go to church and have a Bible and sing the songs and raise their hands and come to the altar? How can they how can he say depart from me?

I don't know you and say that you're a you're a I mean your practice of lawlessness. You are a you're a criminal. Because any sin is lawlessness. We live in a day and age that we people don't want to be called a sinner anymore.

It's not that I'm I'm not that I'm a sinner. I've just got a few issues, right? I just got I mean, I just got I mean, I just got I mean, I just got some family issues. That's it. No, you're a sinner and only Jesus Can save.

Only Jesus can forgive. Only Jesus can heal. I Just gave you three of the most terrifying verses in the Bible and I'm giving them to you today because I know many of some of you may never be in this place again and I would be I would be I would be a criminal if I did not take a moment to tell you that one of the things Jesus came to do was to turn everything on Its head and and depress people then to this idea.

Do you do do you know God and does God know you? There's a lot of people even potentially in this room today. That on that day on that day when we stand before his throne and mark my words. You will stand before the God of heaven someday on that day He will say to you get out of here.

What does that mean? It means you will be cast Into an eternity Of utter darkness of pain the Bible calls it hell. Nobody wants to hear about hell anymore in the church. Jesus preached on hell more than did on heaven.

All roads don't lead to heaven. Only Jesus leads to heaven. Sermons don't change live. Jesus changes lives. You don't get to heaven if you don't want God. If you don't want God you don't get to heaven if you don't want him.

Salvation Is More Than a Prayer

And I you say but pastor Malachi. Again, this is this kind of got this eerie silence in the room. I knew that would be the case today because I'm today the goal of this message is not to upset you. It's not to for me to beat you over the head with the Bible.

The goal of this message is a personal self-reflection to ask you this question not do you know Jesus but does Jesus know you. Not everybody who said the sinner's prayer goes to heaven. Because saying a prayer Does not guarantee you eternal life.

Now I said the sinner's prayer when I gave my life to Christ. I did All right, but it wasn't the prayer that saved me. My heart wanted Jesus. You say so what's the what's the what's the evidence that I am saved.

Is it that I can go back and remember that I was 12 years old and I was in a I was out in the middle. No, I was in the boondocks of rural Kansas and no one was in the room and I got on the second. You know cushion of this old couch and prayed.

Is that evidence of salvation? No, the greatest evidence that I am saved is I want Jesus today. I Want I hopefully when I wake up tomorrow, I want Jesus tomorrow. But The question of eternal life rises on this effect alone.

Does God know you? Does God know you so can I just take apart the passage today? I Wish I had two hours to expound on the beauty of the gospel and all of these things. But for some of you in this room today, I just want you to shore up your salvation just to say, you know I I know God knows me and I know him.

For some of you today, I want you you've been living a lukewarm Christian life. It's time to come back to God and say Lord. I want you and for some of you You're in this room and you know that you know that you know that you are not born again.

You need to give your life to Jesus. Let me just start here and say this Salvation has nothing to do with what you do. Salvation has everything to do with what Jesus did and I am NOT depending on on on my Unbelievably good looks an amazing personality to get me to heaven.

Why'd you guys like that's not guys. Seriously seriously I'm relying on Jesus for eternal life. It's not enough just to believe in God people go. I believe in God. I believe in God. Listen what I'm telling you separates Christianity from 50 of the world.

The gospel is that Jesus died on a cross was buried and three days later came out of the grave and people that trust in Jesus and what he did. They live with him for all eternity. Jesus did not come to give you fire insurance.

So that you can live your life. However, you want to live it now, then someday go. Well, I got my fire insurance. I I said that prayer when I was 8 9 10 11 years old. I'm good. No, you're not if You don't want God here.

You don't get him there. I'm not preaching a works salvation. I just want to tell you what the Bible says and again. This is a strong passage, it's just meant to Caleb to reveal some things to us so rather than me I Just want to go back to the scripture for a second.

So look at your Bibles just for a second here. Not everyone who says to me Lord Lord and he says that again and in verse 22 Lord Lord Shall enter the kingdom of heaven. Lord means. What means boss Lord means?

The one who is every he is boss. He is CEO. He's everything I've once heard it said if he's not Lord of all he is not Lord at all. There's a lot of people who say things. Let me ask this. Have you encountered anybody that says something to you that you you kind of wonder?

I don't know if they mean what they say. Have you had someone ever someone tell you they love you and you're like, I don't think you mean that. All right, don't raise your hands. It might be the person sitting next to you.

No, I'm joking. But there's people who say Hey going to heaven doesn't mean you can say the right things. You can quote the right verses. That you that you that you knew all the right hymns. Has nothing to do with what you do has anything with that way.

He did and the Bible says this so shall enter the kingdom of heaven. Well, if they don't enter the kingdom of heaven, where do they go? They enter the kingdom of darkness forever and it says how to who goes to heaven he who does the will of my father.

In heaven, so you mean I got to work my way to heaven. No, that's not what I said. James tells us that faith without works is dead. But if you know God you will want to do his will you will want to obey him and it's not out of like duty.

It's not out of a you know, I you know. Many other there's false religions out there that tell you you got to work your way to heaven work your way to heaven. We don't work our way to heaven. But man when you've been born again, you know Jesus you want to work for God.

So that you don't people who've been born again, you don't have to beg them to want to worship Jesus. They want to worship Jesus. People have been born again. You don't got to beg them to come church.

They're the ones not looking for 25 excuses to stay home. I'm smiling because that way it's not as offensive. To you the person you know, you know, you don't have to beg somebody who knows God to follow God.

Because the Holy Spirit when you get to know God Holy Spirit comes to live inside of you and does a transformative Work in your life now. Are we listen when you get saved? Are you sinless? No, all right.

When you get saved just that dude is it sunshine lollipops rainbows and unicorns when you get saved? No, all right. Actually when you give your life to Jesus and start living for Jesus it gets hard. It gets really hard.

And if you really live for Jesus, it gets ten times harder, but it's worth it. It's really worth it. It's really worth it. I like the old Hamish. It will be worth it all when I see Jesus. Look full on his wonderful face and things on earth shall go strangely dim in the light of his glory and grace.

Radical Commitment and the Call to Be More Than “Chocolate Soldiers”

Oh. There was the old CT stud was a famous missionary and And He had a sermon that wasn't I mean it was popular now. It's not necessarily popular then but it was a ceremony and he wrote Jack called chocolate soldiers.

Chocolate soldiers. I'm I should post that on Facebook you guys to see it. We talked about that the majority of Christians today are chocolate soldiers. They have they look like good soldiers. They look like they're ready to go.

But when any heat or trial comes they melt. We need people to say, you know what? I don't care come hell or high water. I'm gonna live for Jesus. I'm gonna stand in the fire. I'm gonna run to the battle.

I will live for him. I am NOT. I'm NOT. I'm NOT content with just a little Jesus. I want all of Jesus and the thing is the more you want God the more you'll encounter God and the more you encounter God.

The more you'll want God and the more you want God the more you'll encounter God and more you encounter God. You'll want God and I just want to take us. Why don't we live to be the that mean to be the greatest?

Jesus people that ever walked the earth since the days of the disciples. Why can't that be us? Jesus didn't call us to try to know how to do church. It's not about a building and an hour a week I like a building and I'm grateful for an hour a week, but Christianity is a lifestyle 24 -7 and you're gonna have bad days and you're gonna have hard times.

But if you've been born again, Jesus Jesus will see you through but here's what the Bible says the Bible says Who does the will of my father? So let me ask you this question. Are you doing God's will are you doing the will of the Father?

Well pastor Malachi, I just kind of feel. Did I ask you how you felt today? I? Mean he who does the will of my father. How can I do the will of the Father follow the Son? Jesus did the will of the Father where'd that lead him led him to a cross.

Verse 22 if you're still with me say amen. Why am I preaching this to you today? Because some of you today need to give your life to Jesus. The Bible says many. Everybody say many. Let's just pretend that number just let me just throw out a percentage, you know 90 let me do.

I mean this is not what let's just pretend that many means 90 just for the sake of the illustration. Many will say to me in that day Lord Lord. Have we not prophesied your name cast out demons and done many wonders in your name, then I'll declare to them.

I never knew you depart from me many. Man, I wish that word was not in the Bible. I wish it was a few people will say on that day. I wish it was just you know, a handful of people on that day, but many many.

All right. Okay, not you guys. But everybody else stand up for a second, but not you guys not you guys. I say sit down front row stay sit down, but everybody else stand up. Everybody else stand up. All right.

Well the real pleasant Ridge, please stand up. Please stand up. All right, okay. Why are you laughing at that anyway, okay, this is a few everybody say few this is many. Few Many do it with me few many.

Many will say on that day Lord Lord. He'll say depart from me. He is going to say to the masses of people I don't know you get out of my house. You can sit down. That's terrifying. So am I trying to mess you up so you don't sleep at night and you're always afraid of it.

Do you do are you saved or not saved not know? But I want you to double-check it today. I Jesus is just a liar. I mean, it's Jesus a liar. Maybe he just maybe he just maybe he maybe he just writes things.

He doesn't mean is that what he does? No, the reason why churches have become the way they are and let's just start with this house because judgment must begin at this house as We've let the lukewarm lead the church.

Not those who hearts burn with passion for Jesus and his mission on this earth. What shall it profit a man if he gains a whole world and loses his what his soul? Man, this is not I mean this this is not like the vert.

This is not the verse under Jesus is my BFF. Jesus is not here to be your BFF. He is not here to be your homeboy. Jesus is Lord and We've lost the reverence of Jesus as the people of God. So what do we do?

Returning to God Through Repentance and Grace

What do we do? I'll tell you this and I'll close One I'm being extreme even in my passion this morning to make a point to you. Because I may never speak to you again. You need to make sure that God knows you.

And if you can live Monday through Saturday with with it doesn't matter how it doesn't doesn't I don't give a rip. It doesn't matter I'm just forgiven. It doesn't matter. That's cheap grace. Jesus how should we get you know, how should we continue a sin?

We shall not continue a sin grateful that Shannon's teaching in the book of Romans on Sunday mornings and back on Wednesday nights in the book of Romans says doesn't matter. If you're a Jew Abraham if you say Abraham's my father I this and that goes that doesn't get you eternal life.

Jesus is the final sacrifice. So, how can God know you? This is my final. You know, it's like pastors have like three closings. This is one of the three. Okay, how can God know? You. Well to know somebody you need to spend some time with them.

Do you have any desire to spend time with Jesus? Do you have any desire to sing songs about him? If you don't know God just singing songs and spending time with Jesus just sounds like oh, that's just dumb.

It's not dumb if you know him. It's glorious. Have you ever come to Jesus Christ and ask him to forgive you of your sins? Ask him to come into your life and be your Savior and it wasn't the prayer. But it was the fact that you wanted God and when he came into your life.

You knew things were different now and you may have been ups and downs, but you knew something happened. When you pray, do you hear him answer back? When you open up the Bible. Do you ever weep when you see verses that minister to your heart when you sing songs like we did this morning if I don't.

Have you guys caught this this morning? But there was we were singing that final song and I just sensed like Caleb like God broken and that third song. Like it was just like he's here you go. I didn't feel that I did Church, it's time to say Okay, God Here I am coming to you do a work in me.

You need to be found in the place of prayer in God's Word in God's house. Seeking God don't let culture. Deconstruction. Jesus cannot be deconstructed. I Don't care what this that the smartest of people on the planet say you cannot do deconstruct the lion of the tribe of Judah.

Jesus is all. Jesus is everything and he's coming back. He he's gonna he's coming back to rule and reign on this earth and he's looking for people that he knows. Does he know you? The only you can answer that but if in your heart you go I don't know if he knows me then you need to come to Jesus and say Jesus.

I'm coming to you. I want to know you. I want you to know me. Would you please forgive me? Would you please save me and you're not thinking it was it was not it's not did I say the right words? I say it the right way.

No, it's that you're coming to him. Jesus says whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. The Bible tells us in 1st Corinthians 15 that we are beat that we're where the salvation has a lot to do with being saved.

And then standing in the gospel. The Gospels not the front door to Christianity. It's the door the house the back porch in the backyard. The Gospels everything if all we ever did was talk about Jesus in this place.

That would be enough and if you ever hear a sermon in this church. It doesn't somewhat get you back to Jesus. It was just a TED talk not a sermon. All right, we need Jesus. And I don't care how long you've been in church one week one one year 50 years.

Jesus is what you need. Jesus only can forgive and why am I saying that I don't want you to be part of the mini the mini. So imagine this and I'll this is my second closing. And Caleb you can come up imagine if Today just use today for example.

The Gospel’s Cost and the Mission of Discipleship

You got outside church and you found some tickets on the ground and sure enough. They were they were not tickets to Wonka's Chocolate Factory. They weren't golden, but man, they were tickets to this the game today.

And they weren't just any tickets. They were like box seat tickets. Next to the media booth, which is like the primo primo spot. All right. And you're like, yes, I got tickets. This is awesome. God must love me, you know and.

You know and so man you you leave church and you get out you drive to Arrowhead Stadium and only did you get you know. You're like this is the greatest thing ever and you start texting everybody. I got tickets, you know I'm going to the game and all this that and you get there to the gate and you pull out your tickets and they scan the ticket and they go.

Let's try that again. They scan the ticket. All right one more time. They scan the ticket and then they say to you. Oh, no. This is a counterfeit ticket. You don't get in the game you don't get in the box seat, how would you feel embarrassed mortified mad.

Upset. All the things that you should feel. That's just to a football game. How would you feel if you stand before God someday? And you came to church and you read the Bible every now and then and you.

You every now and then you he goes, let me see your life. It scans your life and goes. I Sorry, I don't know you. It's way worse than a football game. I guess today. I just want you to come to Jesus. I Want you to come to Jesus for salvation if you don't know him.

If you do know him, but you're living in sin, you need to repent of your sin and come back to Jesus. You were not called nor are you allowed to live a lukewarm life? You were called to burn for Jesus.

What do you mean repent of sin? This means to say God, I'm sorry. Give me Holy Spirit. Help me not to do that anymore. You say what is sin? Anything that doesn't line up With what Jesus said? Yeah, I must be a bad life.

No, it's a God only gives us things to protect us. I Want this to be a church? Who burns for Jesus. I Don't want you to be part of the many. But you be part of the few. Third closing and I'm done the.

Enlisting in Jesus’ Mission

Do we have any Marines in the room just by chance anybody have former Marines in the room. We got a former Marine in the room. Semper Fi you know the Marines when they they do their. When they do their recruitment and they enlist.

They're not walking around with clipboards clipboards going. Hey, would you be a Marine man? It's gonna be fun and it's gonna be. I mean we have and we have great food and you get to travel and. It's gonna be a blast.

Would you please join the Marines? We really need some or we need some we need the few and the proud. Would you be part of the few and the proud is that how the Marines get people join the Marines? Yes or no?

Not at all. Oftentimes Marines just got a booth somewhere. The recruiter is standing behind the booth and just says the sign says the few the proud The Marines. Somebody walks up to the recruiting table there and the guy goes, are you sure you want to join the Marines?

This ain't easy like. Like you're no longer in control of your life. We're gonna tell you when to get up. We're gonna tell you when to go to bed. We're gonna tell you what to eat and we'll probably send you off to battle and you might lose your life.

We're just looking for the few the proud The Marines. When someone signs that dotted line to be a Marine, they're enlisted. When you enlist you realize that you're in the Marines. It's it's a crime. It's a crime to be AWOL absent without leave.

You know how many Christians are AWOL? From Jesus today. Absent without leave can't find them anywhere. What if we treated? Jesus much like that Marine sign up thing. You know, what might cost me my life.

I'm in. I'm not in control of my life. I'm in. Tell me what you want. Tell me where to go. Tell me what to do. I am in because there's a mission bigger than myself Church. There's a mission bigger than yourself.

There is a lost world that doesn't know where to turn. There's a generation of Gen Z young people that need Jesus. God's looking for the few the humble the Christians. There are people in Harrisonville that are sitting in pews today that they don't know Jesus and they God's just looking for the few the humble the Christian to say I'll take Jesus to them.

People may laugh at the Marines that may mock at the Marines, but they stay with it. God doesn't need any more chocolate soldiers Jack. He needs soldiers to say make the fire hotter. That's all you got.

That's all you're gonna make fun of me on Facebook. You think I'm gonna quit. Yeah, whatever. Not me. You say well, I'm just too old. Nobody in this room is too old to serve Jesus. You can be too old when you're older than Caleb was we said give me that now.

Then you can argue with me about being too old. No one's too young. Teenagers can drive a vehicle that. Of thousands of pounds. I mean that and then they can take astrophysics in high school. I don't know.

Maybe they can't. I don't know. It's been a while since I've been in high school. If teenagers can drive cars that can kill people and they can take Physics and trig which obviously I didn't take. And I think they can serve Jesus in the church.

Today will you be the few the humble the Christians the church. Will you be the few and on that day? He goes man Terry you made it. I knew you. I knew you'd do it. And God's like I don't. I don't think God's gonna give us a fist bump or a high-five or an elbow.

But I just think that God knows he knows the Bible tells us the book of Malachi. We're his jewels. We're his jewels. When I get to heaven, I want God to say Man, you really don't have a long attention span do you?

But no, but I loved you Jesus. I loved you Jesus. So, yeah, I'm asking. I'm asking you to get. I'm asking you to give everything for Jesus. I'm asking you give everything for his mission. I'm asking you to lay down your life your goals your dreams your visions for his.

Has nothing to do with this church. Getting bigger has everything to do with Jesus getting bigger in your life. Let's all stand to our feet. We're not going to close our eyes. We're not gonna bow our heads.

The Public Invitation to Salvation and Repentance

Here's what we're gonna do in just a moment. I'm gonna open the altar for anybody that wants to pray. Maybe you're gonna come forward to pray because you know, it's time to come back to Jesus. Maybe you were on fire in your 20s and your 30s, but the fire has been gone.

Listen, I don't care how bad it was at your last church. That was your last church. Today's a new day. They say Jesus. I'm coming back. I am reenlisting. I'm here. I'm also gonna ask today. We're all gonna pray this prayer out loud together.

There may be somebody in this room today that needs to come to faith in Jesus Christ. So you can close your eyes for this moment. Just repeat this after me dear Jesus everybody in the room dear Jesus, I believe That you alone are God.

I believe that you died on a cross. To pay for my sins and. You rose from the grave and you're alive forever. I give you my life. Save me. I'm trusting you. Not a prayer. Not a church. I'm trusting you for salvation.

Jesus name. Amen. Everybody look up at me right now. Whether you're whether today you prayed that prayer for salvation. Or you know, you need to come back to Jesus with your with just with your life for to live for him.

You're coming back from from a place of lukewarmness back to fire. I'm gonna count to three. They're gonna begin to sing. But if you prayed that prayer or you're coming back or you just want to say I'm reenlisting when I count to three.

I want you to come to this altar. Find a place to pray you can stand you can kneel. Today's the day of reenlistment. Today's the day of coming home. Today's the day of realizing that he is Lord and God of all.

Are you ready when I count to three if that was you you prayed that today. Come to come to the front one two. Three would you come? Would you come? Would you come? Would you come? Yes. Here I am Lord.

I'm reenlisting. I'm signing back up your mission. You Jesus. We gotta know you God and we want you to know us. Yes, God. Just begin to talk to him where you are. Yes, God. Yes Lord Jesus as we begin to sing today.

We're here together as the Church of Jesus Christ say Lord, we're coming home Lord salvation. Thank you for those today that gave their life to Jesus Christ today. Thank you for those that said they're coming back.

They're saying no more to the lukewarmness. No more to the apathy. They're not going to be the ones that are AWOL in the kingdom today, but they're the ones that be found ready found willing. They're gonna be like the wise virgins had oil in their lamps.
