Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ as we Go through the message this evening. I would like for each one of you that can read this Keep gazing. What's on the board? For those of you that can't see what is on the board is What does Jesus mean to me.

Biblical Christianity Begins With the Heart

Let's make it personal this evening and truly let it let's ask ourselves What does Jesus mean to me as we ponder pray observe and look at the church America today. What is the greatest need that we see brothers and sisters the greatest need in the church today is Right in our own hearts, what is the greatest need in our own hearts?

Yes these messages Especially the evening messages I think will be geared toward revival or Evangelism so we think I think many of us tonight realize and know That the greatest need in our lives is Revival but for tonight as We go through the message Instead of calling it Revival.

Let's call a biblical Christianity the greatest need in the church today Lies within our own hearts and that is to know what biblical Christianity is all about. In 2nd Chronicles chapter 16 We read. This is what it says for the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show himself strong in behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.

A perfect heart is a humble and a broken heart a Humble and a broken heart God will not despise. But you know, I was so touched with that testimony tonight thinking of my own testimony. I Was tempted to change the message, but I didn't have a clearing brother.

Whoever you are. I know what it is to grow up in a home in the very religious home. I Grew up in an old or Amish home. All I knew in my whole life was going to church. I know what it is to go through the adolescent age.

Into the teen years. I know what it is. It is to having a desire to get married. Then I am joined at instruction class and I was baptized. And I got married and I became a father. I was very religious.

But I was lost. I had no reality of What biblical Christianity is all about the Bible tells us? That the Spirit of God bears witness was our spirit that we are the children of God. I Did not have that witness in my heart.

The Bible also tells us That these things have a written on the you. That believe in the name of the Son of God that she may know that she had eternal life. I Have no witness of eternal life. Dwelling in my heart.

So he has how he hikes rebun, but yet gloved in them. Norman de stone gutters. After your visit does he had a baby Laban Harbin when you're clobbered in them. Norman de stone gutters. That was no reality to my life.

But I got to the place where I realized what does Jesus mean to me? Tonight we want to look at Jesus Christ. We want to look at the King of Kings. The Lord of Lords. We want to look at the G at Jesus in Revelations chapter 1.

We also want to look at Jesus in. And Psalm 22 in an Isaiah 53. Have you ever realized? Turn your Bibles for those who have Bibles turned in the Revelations chapter 1. I must confess. I Don't read Enough of this book.

This is a beautiful book. It's a wonderful book and you know, it's the only book in the New Testament or the whole Bible. That it gives us the promise that blessed is he that read us and they that hear the words of this prophecy and Keep those things which are written therein for the time is at hand as we look at eyes as we look at Revelations and We look at John the Revelator on the island of Patmos and we know why as students of the Bible.

We know why he was put there. They tried to get rid of him they tried to kill him they couldn't kill him. They put him in a vat of boiling oil. They couldn't kill him. So you put him on the island for the beasts to devour.

Christ Revealed in Revelation 1

Beloved let's look at the first chapter and let's see How John the Revelator got these seven messages. For the seven these seven messages for the seven churches in Asia. It is an awesome picture as you read down through these.

Where John was? What he saw and what he heard. Let's look at Jesus in Revelations chapter 1 starting in verse 9. I John Who also am your brother and companion in tribulation and in the kingdom of patience of Jesus Christ Was in the isle that is called Patmos for the Word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

I was in the spirit on the Lord's Day and Heard behind me a great voice as the voice of a thumb a trumpet verse 11 Saying I'm Alpha and Omega the first and the last and What thou seers? Write in a book and send it on to the seven churches Which are in Asia?

Ephesus and on to Samarna and Pergamus on to Tyathira on to Sardis and on to Philadelphia and on to Latiasia and I turned Get a picture here beloved this is John the Revelator talking and I turned to see the voice that spake with me and Being turned I saw seven golden candlesticks and in the midst of the seven candlesticks one leg on to the Son of Man clothes was a garment down to the foot and Girl about the paps was a golden girdle.

His head and his hairs were white like wool as white as snow and his eyes were as a flame of fire and his feet like on to fine brass as if they burn in the furnace and his voice is a sound of many waters and He had in his right hand Seven stars and out of his mouth when his sharp two-edged sword and his countenance was that the Sun Shines in the strength.

Oh beloved if you are if anybody in here would be an artist and You are a visionary and you try and paint or draw. How you see the Lord of Lords in these verse? This was John's experience on the island.

Look at verse 17 and when I saw him I Fell at his fetus death and he laid his right hand upon me. The Lord of Lords came down from heaven and laid his right hand on John's head. I See on his head it doesn't say that just says he's laid his right hand upon me saying on to me fear not I am the first and the last.

I am he that liveth and was dead and Behold, I'm alive forevermore. Amen and half the keys of hell and Death. I'm going to cease there. But he goes right on With his right hand on John the Revelator. He gifts the seven messages for the seven churches in Asia Minor all the way through chapter 2 all the way through chapter 3 down to verse 22 of chapter 3.

At the end of chapter 23 Verse 22 he that has an ear let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches and Then After this John the Revelator looked up and Behold a door was open in heaven. I do believe on the Lord Jesus Christ Will appear in the clouds with power and great glory.

In my Visionary mind I Visualize that's what we're going to see. We're going to meet him in the air. We're going to meet him in the air sometimes study in chapter 1 verse 12 through 16 of How what an awesome?

Wonderful powerful being an Experience that John saw and had but this is Jesus Christ. This is the Jesus That came into my life by faith in the spring of 1974. This is the same Jesus that we Prophetically read about in psalm 22 and I say of 50 and 52 and 53.

But we wouldn't know him from the picture we have in Revelations. We wouldn't know him as a as a being if we paint the picture out of psalm 22 unless the church in America this right here is Impartial is a part of the Church of America.

Unless if we are not at the place To our where we can testify that we know by faith. What biblical Christianity is in? Everyday living my prayer is that tonight. I Don't know how many people are in here, but there's a lot of people here.

You know everybody is anticipating this is the first night of five days. But as you gaze on the board Just tell your mind this May be your last night. There's nobody inside these four walls That has the promise to see another sunrise.

No one so just because it is scheduled to have meetings all day for the next four days and Friday evening Will be the conclusion of it. That's no promise. That that's what's going to happen tonight. We want to look At what our part is in Being able to live Biblical Christianity.

Is that a works message? By saying that statement do we have a part in being able to experience? Biblical Christianity lived out. Let me read you some of Roy Henson's writings of Roy Henson's writings On the Calvary Road.

Brokenness and Revival on the Calvary Road

Now as you think tonight of revival. You think of biblical Christianity and as you think of biblical Christianity. You think of revival because it is the same. This is what Roy Henson writes About brokenness we want to be very simple in this matter of revival.

Revival is just the life of the Lord Jesus Christ poured into human hearts. Jesus is always victorious in Heaven they are praising him all the time for his victory. Whatever may be our experience of failure and barrenness.

He is never defeated his power is boundless and we on our part have only to get into a right relationship with him and We shall see his power being demonstrated in our hearts and lives and service and his victorious life will fill us and Overflow through us to others and that is revival in its essence.

If however, we are to come into this right relationship with him The first thing we must learn is that our wills must be broken to his will. To be broken is the beginning of revival. To be broken is the beginning of biblical Christianity.

It is painful. It is you Humiliating, but it is the only way it is being not I but Christ the Lord Jesus cannot live in us fully and Reveal himself through us until the proud self Within us is broken.

This simply means that the hard unyielding self Which justifies itself? Once its own way stands up for its rights and seeks its own glory at Last bows its head to God's will admits its wrong. Gives up its own way to Jesus.

Surrenders its rights and discards its own glory that the Lord Jesus might have all and be all. In other words, it is dying to self and self attitudes and As we look honestly at our Christian lives, we can see how much of this self there is in each of us.

It is so often self who tries to lift the Christian life. It is self to who is often doing Christian work. We heard that tonight in the testimony, didn't we? It is always self who gets irritable and envious and resentful and critical and worried.

It is self who is hard and unyielding in its attitudes to others. It is self who is shy and self-conscious and reserved. No wonder we need breaking. As Long as self is in control God can do little with us for the fruit of the Spirit enumerated in Galatians 5.

With which God longs to fill us is the complete antithesis of the heart unbroken spirit within us and Presupposes that self has been crucified. Being broken is both God's work and ours. He brings his pressure to bear, but we have to make the choice.

If we really open to conviction as we seek fellowship with God God will show us the expressions of his prop of this proud hard self. God will show us the expressions of this proud Hard self that cause causes him pain.

Then it is we can stiffen our necks and Refuse to repent or we can bow our head and say yes, Lord. Brokenness in daily experience is similarly the response of humility to the conviction of God and In as much as this conviction is continuous.

We shall need to be broken continually and this can be very costly. When we see all the yielding of rights and Selfish interests that this will involve and the confessions and restitutions that may be sometimes Necessary for this reason.

We're not likely to be broken except at the cross of Jesus. The willingness of Jesus to be broken for us is the all-compelling motive in our being broken, too. We see him who is in the form of God Counting not equality with God a price to be grasped at and hung on to but letting it go for us and Taking upon him the form of a servant.

God's servant man's servant. We see him willing to have no rights of his own. Willing to be to let men revile him and not revile again. Willing to let men tread upon him and not retaliate or defend himself.

Above all we see him broken as he meekly goes to Calvary. To become men's scapegoat by bearing their sins in his own body on the tree. In a pathetic passage in the prophetic psalm. He says I'm a worm and no man.

Those who have been in tropical lands tell us that there's a big difference between a snake in a worm. When you attempt to strike at them the snake rears itself up and hisses and tries to strike back a true picture of self.

But a worm offers no resistance it allows you to do what you like with it kick it or squash it under your heel a picture of true brokenness and Jesus was willing to become just that for us a worm and no man.

And he did so because That is what he saw us to be worms. Having forfeited all rights by our sin except to deserve hell and He now calls us to take our rightful place as worms for him and with him. The whole Sermon on the Mount was its teachings of non-retaliation love for enemies and Selfless giving Assumes that to be our position.

But only the vision of the love that was willing to be broken for us can constrain us to be willing for that. By dying to self is not a thing we do once. For all it will mean a constant healing to those around us.

Listen to this Individuals. For our yieldedness to God is measured by our yieldedness to man. I Just felt I want to read just a portion of that as we go through the message, you know if we're serious about biblical Christianity and We truly want to pray the Lord's Prayer in Matthew chapter 6 Thy kingdom come.

We must first prayer my kingdom go and one reason That it is so necessary. For us to first prayer was a sincere heart my kingdom go is because if the Lord Jesus Christ Does not have Freedom He does not have liberty and He does not have free course in your life as an individual in your life as a father in the home or in your church life if the Lord Jesus Christ does not have free course and have his liberty and freedom.

It is somebody else's kingdom. Kingdom fruit is brokenness beloved we do not need more revelation and information. But we need more desperation and inspiration and we do What we do not because it is convenient but because it is right as we saw and got a glimpse of a picture of the Lord of Lord and the King of Kings that is for a life forevermore.

He is the Alpha and the Omega. He's the beginning in the end. He's the amen. He's the faithful and true witness. Let us turn to Psalm 22 and try with our minds find a picture of this King. Psalm chapter 22 and as we go through these scriptures beloved.

Look on the board and Ask the question to your own heart. Truly, what does Jesus mean to me? These prophetic scriptures in Psalm 22 were accurately fulfilled in the Jesus of Natharas many centuries later.

They wouldn't have been any more accurate. Had they been history instead of prophecy. Was this in mind? Let's read Psalm 22 a prophetic scripture of the sufferings of the King of Kings. Very accurately fulfilled hundreds of years later.

And like I said They wouldn't have been any more accurate had they been history instead of prophecy. Was this in mind. Let's go through this. And the love as we go through this I Realize there could be a message preached out of every verse Psalm 22 again.

Take your minds back to Revelations chapter 1 when the Lord of Lords laid his right hand on John the Revelator and gave him The message that he was supposed to write in the book for the seven churches in Asia.

The Abandonment and Suffering of the King in Psalm 22

My God my God. Why has thou forsaken me? Why art thou so far? From helping me and From the words of my roaring. My God my God. Why has thou abandoned me? Why has thou left me to myself? To suffer all alone.

God did not interpose to rescue him, but left him to bear those dreadful agonies. All alone. He bore the burden of the world's atonement by himself. Overwhelmed with grief and crushed with pain. Beloved.

Let's go back in the high priest's prayer. Back to John 17 and let's look at the relationship That was between the father and the son in heaven and here the son said to his father My God my God. Oh, don't push to me falasa.

My God my God why has thou forsaken me? The father of mercies. Hath withdrawn from his only son is if he was a personal sinner in some sense beloved. Jesus Christ experienced. What the sinner will experience.

What the sinner himself will experience when he? For his own sins. He will be at last forsaken of God and abandoned in despair forever. Oh My God. I cry in the daytime, but thou hear us not in the night season and am not silent.

Verse 2. I Cried day and night. Thou does not hear and answer my prayer. He was permitted this king of kings Was permitted to suffer Without being rescued by divine power through the disappointment that we sense in The first two verses of my God my God.

Why has thou forsaken me? Look at Christ's humility in verse 3. His humility toward his father. He says thou art holy. Thou art righteous and blameless. Though his prayer seemed not to be heard not to be delivered.

He did not blame God. Verse 4 and 5. I'll just paraphrase these. Give me the same deliverance as you gave our fathers That trusted you the same way. I'm trusting you. Verse 6 in Contrast with the fathers who trusted prayed and were hurt they confided in you God and were treated as men.

I Am left alone. Forsaken as not worth regarding in other words. I'm treated as If I were the most insignificant and the most despicable of all creatures. Despised by the people and forsaken by God. Verse 7 and 8.

They laugh and mocked me. He professes to belong to God. Let him rescue Him if they are friends. The people standing around Golgotha mocked and laughed and said Let his father rescue him if they love each other.

Verse 9 and 10. But thou art he who took me out of the womb. Thou didst make me hope when I was in my mother's breast. I was cast upon thee from the womb. Thou art my God from my mother's belly. In verse 9 and 10.

It seems to me his mind goes back as far as he can remember and this is what he's saying. At my earliest remembrance I trusted you and you kept me safe. I Always did those things which pleased you. But I am so alone.

Verse 11 and 12. Do not withdraw from me. Deep sorrow has come upon me. I Am approaching a dreadful death around the cross. His friends were unable. His foes unwilling to help. His foes were men. With the fierceness and fury of strong bulls verse 13 this verse 13 Denotes the greediness which the enemies of the Redeemer sought for his life.

Let's look at verse 14 and 15. I Am poured out like water and All my bones are out of joint. My heart is like wax. It is melded in the midst of my bowels. My strength is dried up like a pot red my tongue cleavers to my jaws and Thou has brought me into the dust of death.

Physical Mendel Mendel agony and Torment my bones are. All my bones are out of joint. Do we take that literally? Or do we spiritualize that. Let's just take it the way the Bible says. We're 16 for dogs.

Have come past me. The assembly of the wicked have enclosed me. Deep ears my hands and my feet. Men who resemble dogs harsh snarling fierce and ferocious. Philippians chapter 3 3 we read about to beware of dogs.

Talking about evil men. Revelations 22 15. Without for without our dogs and sorcerers. Talking about evil men around the cross. At his dying hour. Were men that resembled dogs. Verse 17. I May tell all my bones they look and Stare upon me.

I may tell all my bones. They look and stare upon me as You look at what's on the board. Ask God for a vision Of the center cross of Golgotha in light of these verses what do you see and What does Jesus mean to me?

I may tell all my bones. What is that saying? You brothers That know the German language. This is what it says in the German. I Can count all my bones from the whippings and the beatings his body received.

Was his flesh ripped from his bones, what do you see on Golgotha on? The center cross. Let me share some with you right now for anyone a few that ever saw or watched the Jesus film. I Am NOT saying that film hasn't helped many people.

Come to an understanding who Christ is. I'm not gonna say anything about that. But I'm here to tell you that the Jesus on that film is not the Jesus That we see in Psalm 22 and Isaiah 53. Not one drop of blood not one physical bruise on his body.

A Shining body that just came out of the sunroom. That's what it looks like for the people that use that to evangelize. I'll let that. But it's not the Jesus in Psalm 22 and Isaiah 53. What's the beatings and the whippings he took?

Didn't rip the flesh off his body. What's he hanging on the cross? Could he count his bones? I may tell all my bones they look And stare upon me. Who is there? Here in verse 17. I may tell all my bones they Look and stare upon me.

Who is there? Is it the bones or is it the audience On Golgotha around the cross. Let's turn to Isaiah chapter 50. Isaiah chapter 50 verse 6. I gave my back to the smiters And my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair.

I Hit not my face from shame and spitting. 52 verse 14 in relation to these scriptures in Psalm 22 as Many were astoned at thee his visage was so marred more than any man and His form more than the sons of men who has believed our report and To whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?

53 verse 2. For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant and is a root out of dry ground. He hath no form nor Comeliness. And when we shall see him There is no beauty that we should desire him. He is despised and rejected of men a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief and We hid as it were our faces from him.

He was his despised and we Esteemed him not. There are many messages in Isaiah 53, but unless we see the brokenness of Jesus Christ How he broke his body how he broke his spirit in order for us to be broken and experience biblical Christianity We will miss the mark.

He hath no form of comeliness. And when we shall see him There is no beauty that we should desire him. The perfect relationship between the father and the son In heaven throughout eternity and when God sent him to earth In the flesh God forsook him.

God abandoned him and God himself found abundant satisfaction To see his son go through these prophetic scriptures in Psalm 22. In Isaiah 53 The father himself Found satisfaction. The Bible to write. Isaiah tells us it pleased the Lord to bruise him when he When he saw the travail of his soul it Satisfied the father.

The New Covenant and Inner Transformation

This is the same Jesus That John met on the island and Got his messages for the seven churches but the sufferings the death the burial and the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the outpouring of the Holy Ghost Brought in a new covenant we live in the best covenant or the best dispensation that ever was and ever will be.

God at Sinai Made a covenant with his people of which the sanctions were made were materially understood therefore The Mosaic Church was temporary. But the sanctions of Jeremiah's church are spiritual written in our hearts.

Let's look at Jeremiah chapter 31 and look at the two covenants. Jeremiah chapter 31. The old covenant is a beautiful picture yet today Behold the days come Sayeth the Lord that I will make a new covenant was the house of Israel and was the house of Judah.

Not according to the covenant that I made was their fathers in the day that I took them By the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt Although I was in husband unto them sayeth the Lord. But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days sayeth the Lord I will put my law in their inward parts and write it in their hearts and will be their God and they shall be my people and They shall teach no more every man his neighbor and every man his brother saying know the Lord.

For they shall all know me from the least of them unto the greatest of them Sayeth the Lord for I will forgive their iniquity and I will remember their sin no more. Note the beautiful picture of the old covenant here in Jeremiah in verse 32.

God was to them a husband and If you are a husband you have a wife and he took his wife by the hand To lead them out of the flesh pots of Egypt and they disobeyed. That is a beautiful picture of a husband Taking his wife's hand and Leading her out of the flesh pots of Egypt in verse 32.

The old law could be broken and It was broken to remedy this God gifts so to say Not a new law. But a new power to the old law. The old law used to be a code of morals Externals to man and obeyed as a duty in biblical Christianity.

It becomes an inner force shaping a man's character from within and The new law the new covenant is not a mere code of morals with external obedience. But the new law is I will forgive their iniquities and remember their sins no more.

The foundation of the new covenant is The free forgiveness of sin. It is the it is the sense of this full unmerited love. Which is the new covenant which so affects the heart as to make a obedience henceforth and inner-necessity.

The new covenant beloved is a heart issue. It is our hearts. I Know what it is to be an adult. I know what it is to be religious. I know what it is to long for something for peace in my heart. But I know what it is to be defeated in my daily life with sins.

That I could not overcome. I Know what that is. I Know what it is to cry out to God. And I could take you to the place. In fact less than a year ago, I had my family in the area where I was converted in 1974.

And I drove down this country road. I wanted to show my children where their father met Jesus Christ as a Savior and Beloved. Jesus Christ died to save me but Jesus Christ does more in His death to then to save us.

He was buried and he was resurrected also to change us. Salvation is more than just being saved from sin. It is a changed life. It is a victorious life. It is not a perfect life, but it is a life that is not defeated and pulled down by sin.

It is a victorious life. It is only in Jesus Christ if we see the King of Kings in Revelations chapter 1 and we look at Golgotha and we see the picture that we see in Psalm 22. My Jesus hung there. Free willing he hung from my sins my sins nailed him to the cross.

I was a father and I was a husband and I was religious. I was serious, but I have no reality in my life but the day came that I found Jesus. I Took my family this summer last June to this place and I wanted to show them within 10 feet.

Where I stood for God gave me a brand new heart. And you know what? I pulled in the driveway and I said It was right in the middle of that two-car garage that's attached to that house. Somebody build a two-car garage that house right outside the porch took a porch away and build it.

I said right there it was Beloved Jesus Christ. I am here to as a witness and to testify that. External obedience Will not suffice and give you peace of heart. It won't. It won't. But I tell you what if the Lord Jesus Christ Comes in and the power of the blood washes away your sin.

From within there's a motivation for obedience. Oh beloved the church needs desperate revival. We need. We need biblical Christianity lift out in our daily lives and It's a it's a personal issue for everyone's personal hearts.

The Home won't be any stronger than the individual hearts in that home. The church won't be any stronger than the homes it represents. It is a personal issue but The New Covenant is a powerful covenant.

It's an everlasting covenant. And it will go through eternity. Some of us may feel That we are a failure Because of our failures, but just because we fail. Does not say we're a failure If we refuse To come to him With whatever holds us back.

We are a failure if we miss eternity. We are an eternal failure and we will never experience What he has for us in this life. He has so much more Than the majority of the people of church are experiencing.

It's biblical Christianity lift out in our daily lives. There's a couple scriptures in closing. There's I want to share three scriptures for true worship that brings biblical Christianity. True worship biblical worship.

Worship Through Repentance and Faith

You know for many years I had the thought in my ma heart that before we can worship the Lord We have to be clean and clear from sin. But if the Lord has shown you something tonight if the Lord has put his finger on your heart Who is a backslidden or apostate or if the Lord has shown you I've never been born again.

You can come to the altar tonight and worship Matthew chapter 8. Look at these three verses in Matthew chapter 8 of what the Bible calls worship. When he was come down from the mountain after the Sermon on the Mount Great multitudes followed him.

Matthew chapter 8 verse 1 look at verse 2 and behold there came a leper and worshiped him saying Lord if thou wilt thou canst make me clean. And Jesus put forth his hand and touched him saying I will be thou clean and Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

Beloved we know what leprosy was in the Bible, but we know the day what spiritual leprosy is. Spiritual leprosy is a type of sin and If you have sin in your life if you have unconfessed sin in your life You can come to the altar and worship by confessing that sin.

Matthew chapter 9 starting in verse 18. While he spake these things unto him behold there came a certain ruler and Worshipped him saying my daughter is even now dead but come and lay thy hand upon her and she shall live.

And Jesus rose and followed him and so did his disciples and Behold a woman which was deceased was an issue of blood 12 years. Came behind him and touched the hem of his garment for she said within herself If I made but touch his garment, I shall be whole.

But Jesus turned around Turned him about and when he saw her he said daughter be of good comfort. Thy faith have made thee whole and the woman was made whole from that hour. And when Jesus came into the rulers house and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise He said unto them give place for the maid.

Give place for the maid is not dead but sleepeth and they laughed him to scorn. But when the people were put forth he went in and took her by the hand and The maid arose and the famed her off when the broad unto all that land.

And we know all Throughout human history what physical death is and we know today what spiritual death is. Spiritual death is a type of sin. And if we know we're spiritually dead we can come to the Lord as an individual or as a family as a concerned father and we can worship and Bring that to the foot of the cross and experience what biblical Christianity is in Matthew 15 starting in verse 21.

Then Jesus went hence and departed into the coast of Tyre and Sidon and behold a Woman of Canaan came out of the same coast and cried unto him saying have mercy on me. Oh Lord thou son of David. My daughter is grievously grievously vexed with a devil.

But he answered her not a word and his disciples came to besought him saying sent her away. For she cries after us. But he answered and said I am NOT sent but to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Then came she and worshipped him saying Lord help me. But he answered and said it is not me to take the children's bread and cast it to the dogs and She said truth Lord yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters table.
