I gave you last week about moving to the sanctuary. I guess I made it sound like we were doing it this week, [cough and clears throat] but I knew Pastor Greg would straighten it all out. I never was good with announcements.

I don't have the anointing for announcements. I thought it would be a great thing to continue what we started last week. Uh we talked about the the fact that we're born of God, born of the spirit, [snorts] um made like Christ, filled with the spirit, temples of the Holy Spirit.

As he is, so are we in this world today. We've been crucified with Christ. We were buried with Christ, raised with Christ, exalted with Christ, and will reign with Christ ultimately.

But right now, we're having some struggles. And we do some things that don't make sense. Have you noticed?

And it it's very confusing at times because you can make a great deal of spiritual progress and then the right thing can happen at the right time and it looks like you fall back uh two or three steps and you wonder what's wrong with me. So, I thought we would go through scripture tonight, beginning in Genesis, go up through Galatians, and see the pattern or the strain of the flesh versus the spirit. I want to go first of all to Genesis chapter 24.

I think that's right. Genesis chapter 24. I'm sorry.

25. Y'all just work with me tonight, will you? Don't expect too much.

Please don't expect too much. We'll just do the best we can this evening. [clears throat] Genesis chapter 25.

In that chapter, we read of Abraham's death and burial. We read of the families of Ishmamail and Isaac. And I'll begin with verse 19.

This is the genealogy of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham begott Isaac. Isaac was 40 years old when he took Rebecca as wife, the daughter of Bethul, the Syrian of Pyram, the sister of Laban, the Syrian.

Kind of hard to get her mixed up with anybody. Now, Isaac pleaded with the Lord for his wife because she was barren. And the Lord granted his plea and Rebecca his wife conceived.

But the children struggled together within her. And she said, "If all is well, why am I like this?" What what she was saying in our vernacular is, "What's wrong with me? What's going on in me?

I don't understand the two tensions or the tension in me. We know she has twins in her and right then and there we see something that will last down through the ages. The children struggled together within her.

There it is. The struggle between the spirit and the flesh started right there. The children struggle with each other.

There was a battle going on before they even breathed. And all of this was taking place inside of someone that God had blessed. So she went to inquire of the Lord.

And the Lord said to her, "Two nations are in your womb. Two peoples, two kinds of human beings are in your womb. Two people shall be separated from your body.

One people shall be stronger than the other, and the older shall serve the younger. Whoa, things have gotten backwards. One will be stronger than the other, mightier, which means the other one will be weaker.

But the one that's mightier and stronger will end up serving the younger. The older one came out first. That's obvious.

He was the strongest. He made his presence known first and the younger came out second. So when her days were fulfilled for her to give birth, indeed there were twins in her womb.

And the first came out. Say it. >> Red.

>> Red. You ever wonder about that? Well, do you?

I mean, he came out red. He was like a hairy garment all over. So, they called his name Esau.

You want to hear one of the most interesting things that I've ever discovered. The word red in Hebrew means Adam. Adam means from the earth.

So the older twin that came out of his mother was all red because he was of the line of Adam. He was of the earth. He was all hairy.

It was unusual. They called his name Esau. Afterward, his brother came out, and his hand took hold of Esau's heel.

So his name was called Jacob. Isaac was 60 years old when she bore him. There it is.

That's what's wrong inside of her. And that's what's wrong inside of us. two natures, two peoples.

You see, before you were saved, you didn't have this struggle. You felt bad. You got depressed.

You felt defeated sometimes, but you didn't have spiritual tension, spiritual conviction. That didn't happen until the [clears throat] second twin or the second person began to operate down inside. The older one is first.

The flesh is always first. You were a human being born in sin first, but then the Holy Spirit came into your heart and your life and the struggle began. And that's why frequently we find ourselves saying, "What in the world is wrong in inside of me?

Why do I want to do the right thing, but I end up doing the wrong thing? What is it about me that I can go for a while and do the things that I think please God, but then for some unknown reason or for some known reason I start acting like the old person I was. Was it at the end of the lesson last week that I talk talked about God changing uh Jacob's name to Israel?

Was Did y'all were you here? >> Okay. Do you mind if I review that for a moment?

Jacob means deceiver, conniver, trickster, crook. And that's what his name was. So when he met God and God told him to go down or not to be afraid to go down to into Egypt and he said from now on I'm calling you Israel.

I have a higher thing for you to do. I'm going to make you great. I will call you Israel.

But then several times after that he called him Jacob. And if you remember, I told you sometimes he acted like Israel, the new guy, the spiritual guy, especially when he went to Bethl, house of God. That's where he was supposed to be.

He went there as Israel was supposed to do. But then one day he woke up and said, "I think I'll go somewhere else." He left the house of God to go into another part of the country. And that's when the Lord said, "Jacob, come on.

Why do we do that?" That's a that's a legitimate question. When we're in the house of God, the presence of God, the will of God, walking with God, what is it about us that we just sometimes wander away? We wander away in our minds.

We wonder with our mouths. We just wander away because we got two things going on inside of us. The thing that's so strong was the first nature we had, the nature of Adam.

But then the Holy Spirit comes in and God says, "Now this new one, this younger one, this weaker one is supposed to control the first one. This new man is supposed to have authority over the old man. You're supposed to feed the new man so that the old man cannot raise its head up again.

And so there it is. If you go over to let's look at Galatians chapter 4. Do you have Well, they'll put it up there.

Galatians chapter 4. It is written and this is verse 22. Abraham had two sons.

One by a bond woman, the other by a free woman. Now this is a a different family here. And he who was of the bond woman, born this is verse 23.

You got it? born of the flesh. The one that operated in the flesh.

The first one, Isaac, I'm sorry, uh, Ishmael, born of the flesh, born of a bond woman, and he of the free woman was born through promise, which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants, the one from Mount Si, which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar. You see what's happening here?

And it goes down through history. I'm going to put my finger here and make a statement. That's why Arabs hate Jews.

It's still going on. See, there is an innate hatred that the descendants of Ishmael and Esau have for the descendants of Jacob. and Israel, uh, Jacob and Isaac.

Do Do you Do you see this? People wonder, "Why can't they get along?" It's not that they just don't like each other's culture and customs. It's spiritual.

It is a spiritual contest. It is a demonic attack. And that's why it will never be solved.

There is no president, no king, nobody, no no accord that's going to fix this thing. You see, because it's spiritual and fleshy people cannot fix spiritual things. Are you with me?

>> We can talk about peace and we can have all kinds of conferences. I took my finger off, so let me see if I can find it. It's not going to happen because this is in perpetuity.

This goes on and on down through the line, down through the strain. You know, when when Cain killed Abel, that's where it all started. And that you got the line of Cain, down through uh Ishmael, down through Esau, all the way down to the present age.

Then you have the, you know, he killed Abel, but then Seth came onto the scene. And then you have Seth and the descendants of Seth, who would be uh Isaac and Jacob, and on and on and on. So God had to find a a line through which Jesus could be born.

He ended up coming through the tribe of Judah. This very day, I spent hours studying the 12 tribes of Israel and the blessing and the cursing that Jacob put on every on each one of them. It's fascinating because you can see that still going on in the people of Israel today.

God had a, how can I say this? a mly bunch in the 12h son sons of Jacob to try to get a good line or a good strain to bring his son into the world. Those 12 guys were awful.

They killed, lied, stole, murdered, incest. That's what God was working with with the 12 sons of Jacob. Because when sin came into the world, it it affected everybody's genes.

You see, so Christ had to come into the world and start a new race of people. Aren't you glad he did? >> So go back now with me to the scripture.

And I'm just a little curious. You're very still and very quiet. Have I said anything wrong?

cuz I'm I feel a little like something's not buttoned up or something. Is it making sense to anybody? >> I guess about the thing that makes the most sense is what's wrong with me?

And we say that all the time. What the what is wrong with me? Well, let's go back to it.

Which things are symbolic? For these are the two covenants. The one from Mount Si which gives birth to bondage which is Hagar.

That's Judaism. the law. For this, Hagar is Mount Si in Arabia and corresponds to Jerusalem, which now is and is in bondage with her children.

That's what the Apostle Paul is saying about the Jews and Judaism and their religion. Bondage, pure bondage. But the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all.

For it is written, "Oh, rejoice, O baron, you who do not bear. Break forth and shout, you who are not in labor, for the desolate has many more children than she who has a husband. Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are children of promise." Watch this.

But as he who was born according to the flesh then persecuted him who was born according to the spirit, even so it is now. The flesh hates the spirit. Esau hates Jacob.

Ishmael hates Isaac. Abel hated Cain. No.

Yes, you got it. Thank you for straightening me out. I'm doing pretty good so far, believe it or not.

And so [clears throat] you see it just going right down through the ages. Keep reading. But as he who was born according to the flesh, then persecuted him who was born according to the spirit, even [clears throat] so it is now.

Nevertheless, what does the scripture say? Cast out the bond woman and her son. For the son of the bond woman shall not be heir with the son of the free woman.

So then brethren, we are not children of the bond woman but of the free. >> He says there comes a point when you have to get drastic and desperate and throw it out. Throw out throw out all the bondage, the legalism, whatever the church taught you that made you feel guilty.

You Catholics have a lot to work on. you Jehovah's Witnesses. My my my and I could go on and on, could I not?

So, as here we go. Might as well do it. Every time I do it, I get in trouble.

You who were in the word of faith, you declare it and decree it, claim it. Uh Kenneth Copelan, Kenneth, all of them, all of them. you that were in that, you find even today, you get afraid when you say the wrong thing.

You're afraid that you're going to speak something awful into your life. Hey, I know this because there were members of my family who got in it and 20 years after they got out of it, they were still in that bondage, in that mental religious bondage. Let me tell you something.

When the sun sets you free. >> I shouldn't have to ought I shouldn't ought to have to finish that. You should say it yourself.

Whom the son sets free >> is free indeed. Even though you're saying, "What's wrong with me?" Um, let's let's read it here. Cast out the bond woman and her son.

be done with it. So then, brethren, we are not children of the bond woman, but of the free. Next verse.

Stand fast, therefore, in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. >> I hope I can quote this correctly. Sandra read it to me the other morning.

She said that fighting the good fight of faith is not just saying no to the devil. It's fighting to say yes to the spirit all the time. >> Yes to the spirit.

Yes to the Holy Spirit. Yes to the word of God. >> It's not just fighting off the devil.

It's saying, "Lord, use me. Fill me. Control me.

Let me walk in my freedom. I want to tell you church, you're free. If you're in Christ, you're free.

>> You know how you know? If you're not experiencing the freedom of God, you still listen to your flesh and you still listen to the devil say, "You need to do more. You need to work harder.

You know how bad you were. You know what you did. You just need to work harder to try to make up for it." That's flesh.

That's bondage. That's the devil. >> You can't work hard enough to make up for it.

>> You can't do anything to undo it. No. The only thing that can set you free and allow the younger to control the elder is to walk in the truth.

>> Just walk in it and rejoice in the truth. And when the two start struggling inside of you, instead of feeling defeated and feeling like giving up and wondering, will I ever make any progress, just remember the struggle is the proof that the spirit of God is inside of you. I ought to quit and just go home right now because that's that was well said >> and I thought you would be happier about it but maybe [laughter] maybe you're not that happy about it.

Okay, we'll stay in that. And in chapter 5 verse 16, um, not sure if I gave the booth this scripture, but Galatians 5:16, I say then, walk in the spirit and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. Here we go again.

What's wrong with me? What's happening inside of me? For the flesh lusts against the spirit.

I don't see here where it says the spirit lusts against the flesh. I just see the lust part on the flesh part. You see that?

Am I making a mistake? The flesh lusteth against the spirit. The flesh longs for stuff that are against the spirit of God.

The flesh hungers for that which grieves the spirit of God. The Esau inside of you wants to beat you down and beat you back because it lusts against the spirit of God. But it says the flesh against I'm sorry, the spirit against the flesh.

The spirit just says no. No, it shall not be. So the spirit wants the things of God, but it never lusts for anything.

The spirit is the righteousness of God in Christ in us. So these things are contrary to one another. There it is.

So that you do not do the things that you wish. What is it you want to do as a child of God? What do you wish to do?

Say it out loud, somebody. >> I should have said that because everybody spoke at the same time and I can't tell me. Somebody, what do you want to do?

>> Okay. Okay, then why don't you do it? I'll tell you why.

>> What? >> Follow the spirit. >> Follow the spirit.

Okay. Well, then why don't you do it? I'll tell you why.

Because the flesh fights against the spirit. It fights for its life. It is desperate.

It has to be satiated, satisfied. That's why people get deeper and deeper in sin. You ought to thank God that you get that you didn't get any deeper in sin than you did at just the right time in the fullness of time in your life.

Christ came and set you free from your bondage. And I'm thankful for it. >> I am thankful for it.

At just the right time, God always does it at just the right time. He's got a calendar and he is uh exact and he is punctual and whatever it is in his universe. He does it at just the right time.

Let me read another couple of verses. But if you are led by the spirit, you're not under the law. Wow.

Why is it, this may just be off the subject a hair, why is it that uh people can read the writings of Mary Baker Eddie of Christian Science and believe that all maladies can be cured by science and meditation? Why is it that people can read Jehovah's Witness material which is so far-fetched, so crazy and readily accept it and say, "Okay, I'll try to do this." Yes. How can they read the the material of the Mormons, which is demonic?

Well, if Let me just say it. If it's not of Christ, it's of the devil. >> I'll get in trouble for that one, too.

This one will go viral. If it's not of Christ, it of it is of Satan. How is it that people will take those writings, those beliefs, those religions, those cults, and they will dive into the most difficult, ridiculous lifestyles and are so miserable and [clears throat] so caught up in bondage that they can't even enjoy life.

And yet we come along and say, "But you can have Jesus." And Jesus sets you free. And Jesus doesn't make you dress funny. And Jesus doesn't make you feel guilty.

And Jesus is love and light. And why would they rather grab a hold of that stuff than to take precious Jesus into their life? Because the flesh, you are you hearing me?

The flesh still wants to prove to God that it is tough enough to do it. >> Your flesh wants to say, "I can do this." But the spirit of God says, "No, you can't. You must surrender." You don't fight to prove that you are a good person.

You admit that you are a sinner and you receive the grace of God by faith. >> Is any of this making sense? [applause] >> And yet that kind of bondage is uh present in most churches.

You know that every denomination has some degree of bondage that they put you under. Did you know that? Okay, [snorts] I'm not going to list them.

Not many of them. [laughter] >> Oh, no. It I it I'll say it again.

Every denomination to some degree puts people in bondage. That's why they keep people in those denominations. Pentecostals are just as bad.

They talk about being free in Christ and whoop hey, but they were taught very stringent guidelines and rules. I was anybody my age that grew up in this denomination and they're listening to me right now, but they know it's the truth. Mike, you were a minister.

You are a minister in this denomination. Am I telling the truth? Is anybody else?

You know I'm telling the truth. Yes, >> you we grew up with a fear. Uh I I know it's very very elementary, but this young man may have never heard this before, so I'm going to tell it again.

When we were growing up, you know, there were lots of things we could not do, >> lots of things we couldn't wear, places we could not go. And the fear was that at just a time you got weak and did one of those things, the Lord would come back and leave you behind. I cannot tell you how many times I have gone home after school.

Mom, she wasn't there. Dennis, Dennis wasn't there. Janice, Dad, look out the window.

And our neighbors were also members of our church. They weren't home. I said, "This is it.

I've been left behind." [laughter] And break down and start crying. Sure. It's the truth.

I bet I could have half a dozen of you stand up and say, "I have had the same experience." Because what I'm teaching you tonight was not was not taught very deeply. The grace of God uh was not understood. Grace was they said if you if you preach grace too much it'll give people license to sin.

If you tell them that they are alive by grace they'll take advantage of it. You got to keep them with just a little bit of fear in them. Well, that's not scriptural.

That's not bib biblical. Paul said, "This is the gospel of the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. By grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves.

It is the gift of God, not of works, lest we should boast. For we are his >> workmanship created in Christ Jesus >> unto good works. In this same book he or yeah Galatians he says [clears throat] if you have known Christ but then you go back to Judaism that was then or to the law or to the rules you have fallen from grace.

You have fallen from the greatest gift God can offer you. If you prefer to check the list and keep the rules and try to impress God and say, "I haven't smoked in six weeks and I haven't drank in six months and I don't remember the last time I did." You're in the You're doing the wrong thing. >> You ought to say, "I've been saved by the grace of God." Amen.

>> And even though I have a struggle inside of me, my God has promised me that the younger will rule over the elder. It is possible to be so full of the Holy Spirit that you can say no to the flesh, >> no to the world, >> no to the devil. And the more you read and pray and walk with Christ, love him.

Just love him and let him love you back. >> The more you find that that stuff that you're tempted to do really seems a little stupid. >> Stuff that you're tempted to get involved in does not satisfy like this.

There is no satisfaction outside of Jesus Christ. Amen. >> And the more you grow and the more you pray and and I don't mean pray out of obligation.

We all need to be disciplined in our prayer life. But but even your prayer can become bondage. If you say by God I pray every morning from hook and if you miss that time then you feel real bad.

Oo be careful. Be careful because you're saved by grace. And because you miss a prayer time or a devotional doesn't mean you have lapsed.

Sometimes it means you stayed up half the night with a sick baby and you slept late after the baby went to sleep. You went to sleep. You slept a little late and you missed your devotions.

Big deal. You're saved by grace. You cannot let Satan or the flesh put bondage back on you >> whom the I already quoted it.

You're free indeed. So you stand fast in the liberty by which Christ has made us free and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. Don't let anybody, don't let anything make you walk and live in guilt and fear.

Know the word of God. So this this poor mother with these two twins inside of her just woke up AND SAID, "WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?" And the Lord says, "There's really nothing wrong with you. >> [clears throat] >> You've just got two different natures at work inside of you.

But the younger nature, the second nature will have authority over the first one. And that's what Christ came to do. He came us to give authority.

He came to give us authority in the spirit of God so we can walk in the spirit. In case you're wondering, you know that Romans 7 passage where Paul goes into great detail and says, "The things I want to do, I don't do, and the things I don't want to do, I do." How many? There are 25 verses where Paul is saying things like uh I was alive once without the law but when the commandment came sin revived and I died.

The commandment which is to bring life I found to bring death. For sin taking occasion by the commandment deceived me and it killed me. And then he says, "Oh wretched man that I am, wretched man that I am." Because if you try to live your life according to the law, you will end up in bondage declaring, "I am a wretch." I didn't mean to yell.

I'm sorry. I am a wretch. But if you remember that Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death, it's already done, folks.

Sin and death. You're set free from the law of sin, which means you now walk by faith and grace and set free from the law of death. You're not going to die.

>> Hallelujah. >> You're not going to die. You may stop breathing and your brain may stop functioning, but you will not be dead.

>> You will be standing in the presence of Jesus Christ with his holy arms around you. >> You are not going to die. [applause] I say it all the time.

I cannot be defeated. I cannot be destroyed. I'm not going to die.

>> Why am I not going to be defeated? Because I've already be been given the victory that is in Jesus Christ. I can't be destroyed.

Why? Because I have eternal life abiding in me. You can't kill eternity.

>> Now I'm getting worked up and I don't need to do that. You can't kill what's eternal. >> If it's eternal, it's eternal.

I just broke my finger. Jesus help me right now. So, where was I?

That it was going really good till that happened. >> You you you're never going to die. You cannot be defeated.

You will not be destroyed. Now, thanks be unto God. Thanks be unto God.

This is a gift from heaven. You didn't pray it down. You didn't work it down.

You just knelt down >> and said, "I believe." >> How? What? What'll get you to heaven?

Faith. >> From faith to faith. It starts with faith.

You grow in faith. You walk into heaven by faith. What is faith?

Just believing what he said. If you don't mind, I'm just going to enjoy what I just said here. >> This is the greatest message ever to come across human lips [snorts] that God has set us free and we are free indeed.

And all of this that Paul writes, just bear with me. Do you mind? Huh?

For I know that in me that is in my flesh, >> what's the rest of it? >> Dwells no good thing. Nothing.

Apart from Jesus, everything else is dirty, sinful. I know that in me that is in my flesh dwells no good thing. For to will is present with me.

That's what some of you just expressed. I want to do this. I want to do that.

The will is present with me. But how to perform what is good? I do not find for the good that I will to do, I do not do, but the evil I will not to do that I practice.

Now, if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer, this is controversial here, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. Can somebody help me with that verse? If I if I do what I don't want to do, it is no longer I who do it.

Why? Because I am a new creation in Christ Jesus. I have been born again.

>> I am of the spirit. >> Uh you know the same old words we use constantly. Born of the spirit, washed in the blood.

That's me. Then why do I do the things I do? Because old Esau and old Ishmamail and old king and old me still very much alive.

And when I pray and worship and walk in the truth, I can paralyze them. I can weaken them. I'm not sure you can kill it.

It's always got a just enough breath in it for you to take a take a nap and then it rises up again. Even though it says they that are Christ have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts thereof. Let's keep on reading.

I find then a law that evil is present with me. the one who wills to do good. It's just there.

It's in me. For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. But I see another law in my members, my body, waring against the law of my mind.

[laughter] Up here. Up here. Right up here is where the battle is.

Right up here. You decide every day what kind of day it's going to be. Am I overdoing this?

>> Up here. That's why and I I want to say something about this later. Um, that's why the first thing I do every morning, not saying you have to do it, Luran has to do it.

The first thing I do is make up my bed. Why? Cuz I want to accomplish something >> before I go downstairs.

Second thing I do is make a cup of coffee. And then I go into my place and I close the doors. And then for the next good while it's me and the Lord and the Bible because I try to set the course for the day just like that.

I'm in my room. Sandra's in her room doing the same thing. Why?

Because how you start the day is how you're probably going to finish today. >> I can't get an amen from anybody right now. So you have to listen.

The the the younger is supposed to have mastery over the elder, the new man. The spiritual man is supposed to have authority over the older man. Hey, the spirit is supposed to have mastery over red, over Adam.

The last Adam has authority over the first Adam. And you get to make that decision because it all works right up in here. >> I find that if I lie in bed and think about things that tear me up, then I am torn up.

Amen. >> I don't know how many weeks or months ago it was that I said that every day and saying we were going through a tough time, I'd get up and and I'd list anxiety points. Is God on the throne?

Is Jesus alive? Am I saved? I'm not going to lie there and let the devil chew on me.

He's going to have to fight. But if I fight the good fight of faith, he won't win the fight >> because the younger has authority over the elder. >> I'm about make myself happy.

>> I'll finish now. Um, I'll read that again. I see another law in my members waring against the law of my mind and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

Oh wretched man that I am. I got a note right here in my Bible. I remember finding this years ago.

You know what wretched means in Greek? Tired. Oh tired man that I am.

Hey, you can get weary and welloing. You can get tired in this battle. Oh tired man that I am.

Who will deliver me from this body of death? Here it is. I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

>> So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin. >> But that's not the end of it. There is therefore now >> I don't ask y'all to do much, but can you just say now?

>> Now. >> Right now. >> Right now.

There is therefore right now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. >> Amen. >> Praise the Lord.

>> We who walk in the spirit will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free >> from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending his own son in the likeness of sinful flesh on account of sin.

He condemn sin in the flesh. Oh, here it is. Listen.

That the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh, but according TO THE SPIRIT. >> PRAISE GOD. [applause] Took me almost an HOUR, BUT I'M WOUND UP NOW >> and I'm finished.

>> Aren't you glad? >> Why Why wouldn't we take a moment and thank God for the freedom we have in Jesus Christ? WHY WOULDN'T YOU THANK HIM FOR that tonight?

[applause] And as you ponder this tonight, if you don't go to sleep right away, just remember when you say, "What's going on inside of me?" God has said, "You got two people, two natures, two powers at work." But just remember, the older one, the first one, the meanest one is subservient to the newer one, who is the spirit of God in you. and the whole church said, "Amen." >> Amen. [applause] >> We thank you for joining us tonight.

Wherever you're watching from, thank you for joining us. God bless you. I hope this was good for you because it was good for me.

>> Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in thy sight. Hallelujah. >> Oh Lord, my strength and my redeemer.

Amen. >> See you Sunday. Unless >> Unless Jesus comes.
