I told Abby there the other day, I said, I hope that it all Amen, just comes and goes before meeting. Amen, that everybody can be here, that everybody can be in. Amen, because if a revival comes to Jerickbrook, it's not for the church up the road or down the road, it's for us. Amen, amen. Let's pray much for those that's sick, that they can get back in here, amen, and be with us. We'll pray tonight before we do anything else. Amen, we got much to pray about. Amen, I didn't mention the sick. Let's pray for our lost people. Even for some that was here this morning that should have moved and that didn't move, Lord knows. The Lord's able to get a hold of folk, I believe that. He'll take the Lord to do it. We can't do it tonight, but he can. That's pretty much for them. Let's pray for our lost people. I ask you to pray for my sister. She needs the Lord. Amen. I would love to see her even get back to where she was, back to where she used to be. But I have said it a lot, it is hard to talk to somebody that knows. It seems like once that heart gets hard, that it's hard to break it. But God's able, God's able. Anybody else got any objects on your heart? Let's do pray for revival. God, we're moving now. got the thing and how much time I spent on the PlayStation. Months at least of all that work. I wanted to get closer to God and that wasn't a distraction. I got home, got Justin's gun and shot it and broke it with a hammer. It wasn't hard for me. That's a miracle. Yeah. That's a miracle. Yeah. That's a miracle. That's a miracle. That's a miracle. That's a miracle. That's a miracle. That's a miracle. That's a miracle. That's a miracle. That's a miracle. That's a miracle.

Come on out and see us. Everybody tonight, have a word on your heart. A song, a word of testimony. Now if we're not careful, we'll let some being out of here, Some being out over there, even it'll hinder us. But it ought not, all that we need is the Lord. He still blessed us with a good crowd in this place tonight, but if he's not here, it's a waste of time. Amen, so let's all just be obedient unto him. ♪ And sin I was living, no thought was I giving ♪ Of dying or where I would go I was looking at buying, so hard was I trying to gain all this work had to hold. Well, no peace and no pleasure could I even measure, the thought that I had to gain. Well, I've hit it in the brain, and God saved me that time. I've been saved. I'm not going to hell. I've been saved. One story I tell. I'm saved and forgiven. Set free all is well. I'm not going to hell. No, I'm not going to hell. Now my life's worth living. Since I've been forgiven, Christ made a change in me. I'm no longer crying when I think about dying, cause heaven is waiting for me. Now Satan's still alive, and he's always trying to lead you down the wrong way. Just call on Christ's name, and he'll save you today. You'll look back to Satan and say, I'm not going to hell. I met the Savior. What a story I tell. I'm saved and forgiven. Set free all is well. I'm not going to hell. No, I'm not going to hell. I'm saved and forgiven. Set free all is well. I'm not going to hell. No, I'm not going to hell. Amen. I'm going to get out of the way. Amen. I'm going to say just a few words. God being my helper, amen, I'm gonna get out of the way and I'm gonna give you opportunity. But in the book of Psalms tonight, Psalm and four, if you'll look there, you don't have to stand. Amen, I'm not even gonna put the mic on or nothing like that. I will be, but even for just a second. God help us all. There's times when the Spirit's higher than at other times. There's times when it's a little quieter. But amen, but through it all, he's God. and he's good. Psalm in four, here was David talking. He said, hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness. Thou hast enlarged me when I was in distress. Have mercy upon me and hear my prayer. O ye sons of men, how long will you turn my glory into shame? How long will you love vanity and seek after leasing Siloam. But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself. The Lord will hear when I call unto him. Stand in awe and sin not, and commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still Siloam. First three words there, I've talked about it before, but in verse number four there, he said to stand in awe. Meaning to admire. Just enjoy it, just look at the beauty of it. Seen something the other day, and they'll talk about the wonders that man has made. Great buildings and things of that nature. They'll say that they are all inspiring. Meaning man ought to be able to look at them and gasp and hold their breath and think, my, amen, what works has been done by the hands of man. But if there is anything tonight that is all inspiring, it ought to be the God that made everything. I stand in awe tonight at the fact the words and life conformed. Had enough power in man to speak and trees begin to grow. Had enough power in man to reach down in dust and form man out of the dust of the ground. Had enough power to breathe in man's nostrils the breath of life and put a sword down on me, now that ought to be awe-inspiring. That ought to make mankind step back and look and think, my, what a God that we have. If anything's gonna inspire any kind of praise out of us, it ought to be a holy God and a sinful people I'm not gonna get in, bro, too tore loose, I'm gonna get out of the way. Amen, but he ought to be awe-inspired. I mean, bro, we'll go outside, and we'll look, and I thought, I ain't trying to embarrass Haisley. Hey, let me tell you, we went and bought a new Suburban the other day. And when they brought it in, I stood out there and looked at it, and I thought, boy, that thing's pretty. And I looked in the window and said, All the bells and whistles. I thought, man, that's nice. Isn't it amazing how we'll stand proud? We'll look at what man's made. We'll look at what's going to burn one of these days. We need all to inspire all in us to know that there's something down on the inside. There's nothing else worth talking about. I realize we all got hobbies, we all got jobs, and ain't one thing wrong with that. Amen, but honey, there's one God and one Lord, one mediator between God and man, the man, Christ Jesus. That's all, really, that's all there is that's worth bragging on. I can follow Jeff Bundy home. Hey, man, I guess you could follow me home. Walk in, and I could brag on the else. I could brag on that. I got deer hanging on the wall. I can tell you where I killed them. I can tell you how I killed them. I can tell you how far away from me they was. I can tell you, hey, just about, how the wind was blowing, and the temperature of the day. But really, all that's gonna matter. We're in a time, honey, amen, where man loves the world so much, man loves the government, man loves everything that's going on, amen, where they refuse to say something bad about that, that'll run you out, but they'll let you curse God. and won't say a thing about it, but he's all there is today. I stand in awe at the fact that God would even look at us, that God would even recognize us, that God would even save us out of our sin. That's all it's about. I've heard Billy talk, even about coming out of a drunkard's home. Amen, about half. April Harry's daddy lay dead a purple side of the road. Amen. Home and family didn't even have a Bible. Is that not awe-inspiring to think that God would even look at him? Does that not inspire awe? You know what else? That's all inspiring. Ain't that right? People go and they run up to New York. I've heard them talk about how it's almost overwhelming to look up. I ain't never been there, have no desire to go. Look up at them skyscrapers. Amen. Think about that. Hey, amen. I don't talk to him about how he made them feel so small. Just stand there and look up. You ought to feel small. of the world in the holy water of his hand. Oh, but you know what, Michael? Not only is he holding the water of the world, if I read my Bible right, how did we, how did his hand, is that not what it says? That's it, that's all it is. That's it, that's it. I don't be shouting around. God loves us and to hold us in his hand. Amen. I'm almost done. I don't want to be all inspiring tonight. Amen. Just to ponder on it. You think about it for just a minute. There's a lot of things I will share. When I've seen you go through some dark times, I've seen you come out on the other side with victory. That's all inspiring. Amen. We talk about it all the time, but just the blessings of God. Amen. God, I stand in awe at the fact that a man and a woman could pray and beg God for seven years. Amen. And finally, God bless them with it. That's all inspiring to me. I stand in awe, I tell you. When man says there's no way, when man says it's impossible, when man says you should give up, that's when God does his best work. Amen. He is worthy. Is he not worthy? He's worthy of it all. He's all inspiring. He's all inspiring. Amen, I look at it every day. Get down there at the bottom of the mountain, even before you get to Smiley's, and I look where the Lord took care of you, brother. It's all inspiring to me to see a great big hole, and how in the world that a tandem duck truck made it over the hole. You'd think an Elvite guardrail would have enough strength to have that truck hit it, that it would slow it down enough to just let it plunge right off in there. But God, who is rich and merciful, but God, I believe that he grabbed ahold of it like a compass, and went from one side to the other. Why, that's all inspiration. I mean you lay back over your life. Where would you be today? Where would you be right now? All the times that you should have done died and plunged off into hell. But God had other plans. If that don't help people, I don't know what will. There ain't enough money in the world to buy it. Hey man, you've heard me say there ain't enough gold in Fort Knox. You can have all the money in the world and still die without the money. Hey man, but you can just have two nickels to run together and walk through life with joy on the coast you got it. I'm almost there. Thank you, Lord. I'm in awe of that power. I'm in awe of the fact that God would even recognize us. I'm in awe of the fact that God even knows where Yangtze County, North Carolina is. Not only Yankson County, but Pahoa. And when you get off from here, there ain't many people knows. Hey, my more bald holler is on Price's Creek. Some of the youngs may not even know. But Michael, I know God knows where he's at. You know how I know, cause that's where I'm at. It inspires awe in me. I'm telling you, it troubles me to see people just go and then come and don't bother them. The power of God don't move them. That's a pretty good indication they don't know him. Because if he's in you, he'll bust out to crack somebody. I stand in awe of it, man. I'm almost done. I know a lot of y'all's testimonies. I know where a lot of y'all's been. And the things you've done, the things you've seen. I ain't gonna tell you your testimony. That's your job. But I stand in awe at the fact that Crystal Hill followed you in the courtroom. I don't know what else Oh! Oh! He's always fighting. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him. Just look at him I don't need coke. I don't need a big name. I don't need anything else. All we need is the Lord. He's here. Outside of here, it's all in vain. But if we got the Lord, we've got everything. Give him a huge brag on him, huh? Hey, one more thing. It says that the world couldn't contain the books. It should have. There was a man that had done so much that the world couldn't even hold everything he'd ever done. There ain't a romance novel. There ain't a Harry Potter book. The Chronicles of Narnia. There ain't none of that garbage that can hold a life. And for God so loved the world that he gave. It's only for God. And that's all it's worth. And God's done nothing else but to give the best of heaven. I just turned it away. Thank you. Thank you, Lord. He said it's just pitch black. Imagine us being there right now. It's a black place. Worst part about it, we'll never get to be around the Lord. That's the worst part about it. I'm thankful I'm not going there just because of his blood. I stand in awe that the blood that he shed 2,000 years ago is still clean. I stand in awe that his blood is still clean. Bless his name for everything. He's good to us. Thank you for everything he's done for us. in the middle of the door and was taking a picture of something. And me and Charlie both, as we went by, like nobody else was stopped or looking. We both turned around to look to see what he was taking a picture of. It was just the sunset. It didn't look like much to me. Me and Charlie never gave it a second thought. We just, we looked at the ballpark. But you know, I know the world probably looks at me and think, there's nothing there. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've seen it all. I've I want to thank the Lord for all the mercy he's had on me. All of his mercy. Like Charlie, I went away from the Lord. I don't know if I ever told you the mercy that the Lord's had on my life time and time again. I was first married. I was logging then. My pa, he was a preacher. He told me that morning, he said, Jack, you had a dream. You're going to get hurt. He said, you be careful today. I let that go through one ear and out the other. You know how it is. I got to work. I didn't have my hard hat on. I was in the woods. I went down to the truck. I went to get some water. And I was going back to the woods there. And I felt that in my heart. I know that I needed to put my hard hat on. It was overwhelming. I know what I had to do. And I put my hard hat on, went back in the woods, man was cutting a tree, and I was wedged. All I heard was run, and I took off, and the lamb come out and got me in the head. But if it hadn't been for his mercy right there, I wouldn't have been saved. He was trying to wake me up then. Well, I didn't listen to him. And it took the Lord bringing me to my knees, but he brought me back. And I thank the Lord like that prodigal son that He sent. He was dead, but now he's alive again. I thank the Lord that I'm alive again this evening. Because of him, because of his mercy, I'm alive again this evening. He could have left me back there. He could have left me alone. And I could have died right there in that woods. And that would have been it for me. That would have been no more chances, nothing else. and lifted my eyes in the devil's hands. But for his mercy, right now, I'm alive again. And I thank the Lord for that, you see. Thank you, Lord. Yes, sir. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Amen. I want to thank the Lord and get the Lord's side of it. As Tyler was mentioning, everything, my mind going back and everything, the Lord done it for me. I know I'm sly and I don't ever say much, but I want to share where the Lord brought me to be from. I grew up in church, and I got saved when I was about nine years old. Got a little older and started getting into worldly things. Still going to church and everything, but living a double life. Nobody knew where the house was moving, and eventually we were there where it was, and we moved the mansion, and they were able to go to the church much, and like I said, nobody, no one, like I said, they're just putting on a good front. But God knew where I was. I was in a house, like, too small, man, to ask for help. Lord, keep up, I'll wait. I thought even last year, the beginning of last year, whenever I had that surgery on my back, left a hole big enough you could put a baseball in. It'll be another day to dream, anything else but God I just can't die. It's me and I'll sit back and wait till nobody else bites the bullet. And even here recently, even when it feels like hell itself is just blazing in my head, God still got to me. And here I am tucking my tail into my own cave, instead of being out here helping to make a presence out of this war. We go through stuff here, but it's worth it. I made it all possible to be here. I appreciate it, Lord. and we lost our aunt. She died. All her family was in and the younger cousins was in the house. Ben got to tell them a story about it. He was a, he was the lead radiation technician, Asheville Hospital. And a boy come in and he was hit by a truck. And he said they had to do x-rays there on the pavement where he was laying, had him intubated, IVs in him, all this other stuff. He said all of a sudden, they thought the boy was about to die of COVID, whatever they called it. And he said, all of a sudden, the boy jumps up and says, I don't want to go there. I don't want to go there. Lord, how scary that would be. I wanted to ask him if the Lord died or if he lived. I just hope the Lord will soon fit. And I hope whoever that boy was, that he just, if he lives, if he got ahold of the Lord, because the Lord showed you things like that, and you get that sacred chance. One of my other little cousins, he's like, that's crazy, brother. I didn't mean to, but all I can say is it's real. It's real. Hell's a real place. I've been praying for each and every one of you. I don't want you to just all die and go to hell. That story he told you right there, that was real. The Lord loves you. The Lord loves all of you. All we've got to do is give it to him. Thank you, Lord, for everything you've done for me. It's like that Rick Torrey talks about. Lord, I wake up on the other side of that, being in the truth. I woke up and didn't know a thing, and it just happened to me. It's like God just woke me up. I don't know what happened during that time. I can only imagine that he is. I know he is. So when I fell on his back, I didn't know what had happened. Thank you, Lord, for bringing me up. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Jesus. That's enough. Thank you, Jesus. That's enough. I mean, I got to sit here and watch my young'un get up there and sing. Laila, if you dare ever go out there and you dare ever score another basketball, you just remember, you ain't got to go behind me. And I know when that's happened, I just want to save my boy, too. God's made the most blessed of me the way he has. I said before, I appreciate the seriousness here. There's a lot of churches that's not serious. Nick was talking about a preacher. I guess at that funeral, he said he just made jokes. It's a sick feeling. If you've got the spirit of God, you know what's real and what ain't real. Sire's talking about that Brookstone church coming up to the Mount Heritage. I ain't judging, but I just don't like the feeling about things I've heard about. I don't know, but I do know what's right. I pray for Kelsey, Ella's mama. They go out there and we report to that one. I'm not judging, but I want everybody to know the truth. There's so many out there that deceive people. It's serious. It's life, and it's death, and it's heaven, and it's hell. It's all about the Lord. It ain't about life, and smoke, and feeling good. You might as well be in a country music concert. You might as well. I'd rather be in a bar in the middle of the church, to be honest with you. I pray that, just pray for them, that they would go I appreciate the seriousness here. It's a serious thing. One thing I stand in awe of is how you can't disprove God. I spent a lot of time trying. I'll tell you this, it's amazing how the more you dig, I mean, you can see some differences in the Gospels that you can tell the men that wrote it, there was a little bit of their perspective there. It's gorgeous how that was. When you keep going, there's not a single book in this Bible where you don't see Jesus. And when you get to the Gospels, there's the man you've been reading about this whole time. I look forward to getting to see him one day. When I stand up and say that I'm glad I'm out of hell, I think back to so many places and times I could be in hell. It's a fact that when I was just young, and like it was mentioned, I was raised in a hellhole home with alcoholics, and like it was mentioned, My dad laid beside the road for three months and died of exposure. And my mom walked to the bar and worked at a restaurant. We didn't have a Bible. We didn't go to church. And I walked to the store and didn't have nothing. Didn't have nothing. Didn't have a way. Finally I worked hay in the back and got me a bicycle. And I drove that bicycle to and fro. Never knew nothing this little heather. And just ride, just look around. There's always something inside of me, trying to talk to me, I don't know what it was. Trying to protect me, and I don't know what it was. I've been getting on a bus every tour, we out of pieces. Then people up the road took me to the hospital, and I wrapped up like a mummy, solid from my belt. So I weighted my neck, both arms, so flat like a mummy. I went in and I ran under the couch. State day, then he got up and he said, let's ride her again. He was going to kill her. I grabbed him around the neck one time. I tried to kill him. You raise him, hey, I'll get you on all the good things in the world. Now I wrecked a motorcycle. Probably got me enough money to haul him, hang him, work his back and haul me a motorcycle. I'm going to hate you, man, on his own. I went by a neighbor down there, and he was in the garden, playing his yard. He said, and I didn't know this about that, as he told me after the fact. He said I went as high as that light line on the motorcycle when I ran. I didn't know nothing after that. It knocked me out. Next thing I knew, somebody picked me up and put me in a vehicle, pulled me into a store down there. My mom just happened to come out of the store and said, who's that bloody boy? I could have been in hell right there. Lost, I'm done. Didn't even know I ever get saved. Didn't have a good church in that hood. Didn't have a Bible. Hadn't even get saved in the hood. God's had mercy on me. I went and broke all the pieces. They took the hospital. See, right back after I got out, I'd ride it with one hand. One leg, I'd just start doing it. I got out there wrecked another time. Broke me all the pieces. God bless me with a beautiful young woman. to where I could get saved and not be in hell right now. If I was in hell, I couldn't get out. I'd be for eternity in hell. Lord bless me. I didn't know it. We come over to North Bend. Dad's dead. Died of a massive heart attack. 55-year-old. I hope you had a time to repeat it. We come over here to Green Mountain over here to visit her momma's brother. We buried him. That was in 83. He died in 83. We come down, I've been drinking, that's Saturday. And the fellow going to church in North Bend, he says, y'all go to church with him. I said, no, I don't want to go to church. And some insomniacs kept talking to me. I go over there and burn that church on Sunday morning before I throw him back out there on the North Bend freeway back to the church. Boy, somebody got a hold of me. I couldn't talk back. I couldn't do nothing but cry. I was trying to talk to him. I was like, come on, I guess somebody got a hold of me. I went up to Auburn and everything. It ain't never been the right thing. It ain't never been the same. Lord saved me that day. I walked out the door to the free room at the church in North Benning. I'm going to grab some screeners and I'm going to get everybody else. Get none of nobody else. Get the people that took. That's what God can do. Just a little while after that, the devil sends you. Can't make it. I don't have no experience in the Lord and nobody around. and hurting my customers, man. Sorry, don't get trashed, man. Sorry, should be in hell, but God saved me. And I said to everybody I came, man, we went to a party down there, we were sitting around, some of them were smoking, some of them was drinking, and everybody in there just had a weird, crying out loud. And everybody in there was in hell. Boy, you talk about tearing that party up. I come up, man, I said, honey, let's go to the house. We went out alone, they tore the whole place up. I didn't know none of that. But they seen it, and they talked about it later on how God got a hold of me, brother. And I just wanted to go ahead and drag it on here and there. I got down there, and below her was a long straightaway going right on Southport Greenwood. I told Diane, I said, honey, I said, I'm going to get stopped. I don't want to get down there. I was pulling that ass off the driveway. I said, drive slow. I'm going to work your back to the Lord. I saw a backslide, but the Lord didn't deal with it. He forgave me over that. We come along, we come along. Several years after that, we had our babies. Little Kelly, two-year-old. I come home from Goochell, I was a driver, I went past Goochell. I come home and I brought a little cuddle book and little crickets. Little Kelly, ten or so. I come in the door and sat down in the bathroom. I looked out the window. She waved bye at me and pulled that car out of gear and it went backwards. I was living right there, brother. I done talked to the Lord and I said, Lord, help me. She rubbed that car, went rolling backwards. She fell out of the car, left front wheel run over her head. We thought she died, killed her, and the blood came right out of her nose and her ears. I told Diane she had her nightclothes on. I said, honey, let's go. We picked her up, took her to her sled, put her on. She went to the store and told me, boy, I said, call Hamilton. I'll meet him at Burgum. We got over at Mission Hospital the next day. She came to us and said, I was rolling up the hallway with her, rolling down on the go-kart spot, and she was saying, Jesus loves me. And I said, thank the Lord, brother. See, we can have a little two-year-old baby, can't we? But God saved us. The doctor said it, and our prayer was raised. He said, he raised her head, together they popped like that, said, it's been you that killed you. I said, that's what God can do. Praise the Lord. He wouldn't have been born if God hadn't healed her. She had liver, liver, cancer of the liver. Lord, it broke my heart. I said, Lord, help. John Hill. I took a picture of him in that spot, stung him with cancer. And we went back over there and we prayed church prayer by prayer. We went back over there and we took a picture of him. I've been one for God. I've been one for God. I've been one for God. I said this is it. I didn't have time to repent. I was just trying to hold the wheel. I thought it was going to come up on its side and go through that guardrail, but it said back up. I slid down through yard two by a long, long ways and went out in the median. And I didn't even have time to do nothing. Boy, you talk about trying to talk, but the Lord did. When I was crawling back, he forgave me. I saw him hook out there, I gave him, forgive me again. And here I stand today with all these blessings, and it still would turn my back on the Lord like hell. I should be in heaven. He saved me from hell. Thank God for what he's done for me and what he's done for my family. Even though I spend less, he's forgiven me. God for what he's done for me. He's helped me through all kinds of times. In three months, I'll be 70 years old and I'll keep standing and praising the Lord. I should be in hell good now that I give Him the praise that I'm able to stand and got the bread to speak. I could be without speech, hearing, or anything else. I couldn't be in there without him. I'm thankful for what the Lord has done for me. He deserves all the praise. If it wasn't for him, I'd be in there. Even after saving folks that rich like me and all the goodness that there is in it. Listen to this voice and this Charlie Robinson prayer. preach and tell like he does. He'll tell about the mind games. Every day of my life I gotta deal with that. And we will till we get home. One old boy that goes to church here, he said he has trouble. I said, son, I've been faithful and I'm able to stand up, give him the praise and the glory. And there's a whole lot more things that happened to me that God helped me through. It's just on and on and on, just run out of the road down below Mariana. It turned up on its side on low gas. I reached down to get a cup of coffee. I sat down, and it turned, I had to run out of the road, banged my church, 740. And it was sitting back down in the road, I was moving another truck. He said, y'all, it took me a minute to answer him. I said, yeah, but I have been forgiven, and God helped me through that. I'd be dead right now if it wasn't for God helping me through so many things. Thank God that I got to shut up. I'm thankful. I just want to give him the praise for what he's done for me and my family. And we've got three beautiful girls. Without God, I wouldn't have nothing. I'd be somewhere, in some hellhole somewhere, either in hell or, I don't even have big feet to be here, and I ain't without Him nowhere. It's all because of Him I'm able to lie and able to say. Thank God for this church, the people of this church, and thank God for our pastor. Thank God for salvation. I love the Lord. I sit and cry a lot because I'm condemned. I've forgiven him so many times for more of being what I've done. The Lord's forgiven me, but like Charlie says, you gotta forgive yourself. That's hard to do, boys. And I tell you another thing, if you ain't never done it, the devil keep bringing you back to prison. That's what I'm saying. That's the way to do it. The devil keep bringing you back to prison. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. It's all your fault. If you don't do it, the devil can't ever bring it back up to you. He can water me over the head now with things that I've done that I've saved y'all. And we still haven't had it. If you didn't tell people, God's not sure. But if you don't ever do it, the devil can't bring it back up to you. Thank God for the strength of staying praised if you don't remember what he's done for you. He's been good to me. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. I was raised, I was raised in the creed of the father. I was raised amongst the saints. Never, never seen my daddy, how he out-called his man. Never seen my daddy do nothing. Of course, the Lord of the church, the church son of a woman. Me and her both, like I've said before, me and her, Greatness compared to what some of these have come out of. We stand without excuse. We stand without excuse. And I sit there and think as Brother Bill was talking about the things that we do that the devil can love us. story of an old farmer, a Christian farmer, a good man. And he had two sons. And those two sons got saved and everything. And they were sitting there at the dinner table, letting him talk. And he said, Daddy, he said, if we do something wrong on the scene, he said, the Lord will forgive us for it, boy. He said, yeah. He said, son, the Lord will forgive you, boy. He said, come out here. I want to show you something. He gave each of them a pound of nails and a hammer, and laid a 16-foot toothpick forward over their forehead. He said, now boys, take this pound of nails and drive this toothpick forward. He drove very warmly with the toothpick forward. He said, this is your seniors. This is your seniors. Drive these nails. He sat down. He said, the Lord's going to forgive you. And he said, take that hammer and drive it. See, it leaves a hole. It leaves a hole. It leaves a hole. These things I've done in my life, since I was saved, I was, I had boys talking to her, I was almost nine year old when I got saved in 1988. Been that long? I was, I got baptized in August in 1988, got saved in, I think it was early, I think it was early, Man, I've made a lot of messes. I've messed up many of the times. Many of the times. Made a lot of messes. And I've had to go back and say, Lord, what was sin in my life? And it's left over. Satan's brought back to my mind. You remember you doing that? This old flesh is brought back to my mind. You know, I'm thankful. I'm thankful for salvation. And I'm like the rest of them. I stand in awe that God would put up with old sin like that. That God would be just and faithful to forgive us. Thank you, Jesus. Well, I would say that John told Bobert, he said, little children, sin not. You know, he said that verse. He said, sin not. In other words, don't do it again, but that way you don't have to go back and have to get it again. But if you do see it, you have a match with God, with Jesus Christ, right? And I'm thankful that God gave me that as a forgiving God. I know that I'm not worthy of the glory that you have made for me. And I'm not done, so thank you. The greatest humans would say, I'm just so terrible a man. Thank you for keeping me all these years. And the things that he's done for me. And the things that he's done for this church. I was standing in the corner and I was just looking back. One thing after another. And I just stand in awe. I'm like, oh my God, he's done it for me. And I just thank him in a crazy state for everything that he's done for me. Thank you Jesus.
