Luke chapter number 19. Luke 19. I've thought so many times knocking on doors and talking to people, people are more and more starting to assume that the Bible says something which it doesn't or they'll say something about the Bible that doesn't apply to us or something else. The Bible says we're to rightly divide the word of truth. And I'm not going to go into that particularly, but you'll be able to see something here this morning. I think that'll be a blessing to you. But Luke chapter 19, and the context of this verse is this. They had just come into the city, and he came in as a conquering hero. He'd ridden on the colt, and they'd strawed palm branches before him, and he came in and viewed the city. But I want you to notice in verse 41, it says, When he was come near, he beheld the city and wept over it, saying, If thou hadst known even thou, at least in this thy day the things which belong unto thy peace, but now they are hid from thine eyes. Do you know how many times that is exactly true for each one of us? That God's peace and God's grace, which is kind of a theme this morning, God's grace and peace are fairly obvious. They're certainly available. And so many people fail to avail themselves of that. And many times we as believers fail to avail ourselves of that or at least use that to be a blessing to someone else. And if you look at the context of all this, which is what we're going to do, I'm sure it'll be a blessing to you. The Bible tells us in Isaiah 53, this tells us the heart of Jesus Christ, how that he died for our sins. He suffered abandonment from the father and All of those things. Now, three times you see in your Bible that Jesus wept. Three times. You're probably familiar with the first one. In John 11, he wept at the weeping of his friends at Lazarus' tomb. Sometimes we'll bury a loved one. I buried my mother, and you can weep at the loss of someone that's beloved, knowing they're in heaven still. Why? Because we see that Jesus wept at the weeping of his own friends. There's a time for weeping, isn't there? It's not a time of disaster, it's not anything like that, but it is a time of loss and having endured that loss. But secondly, and this is very interesting, in Hebrews 5, he gives a comment on the time in Gethsemane. Let me read it for you. In Hebrews chapter 5 and verse 7, the Bible tells us this. It tells us, who in the days of his flesh, speaking of Jesus, a priest after the order of Melchizedek, who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was it heard in that he feared though he were son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered. In that garden of Gethsemane, way more happened than we ever really think about unless you start meditating upon that. and putting all these verses together. He was facing something that words fail us to try to describe. He was facing, first of all, the burden of sin that he had avoided all of his life. He had never sinned. When he died, he was not bearing his own sins. He bore the sins of you and of me. Each one of our sins were upon him, and he was going to take that burden upon him, probably in that Garden of Gethsemane, and he's facing all of that. And yes, he learned obedience by the things that he suffered when he speaks of suffering, when he speaks of continuing on, and when he speaks of discipleship, he's endured all those things. He faced all that stuff there at Gethsemane, but here you see him weeping over that rebellious city. You can't avoid Jerusalem being in the news every day. Isn't that an amazing thing? I've said that many times, especially lately. He wept over that rebellious but beloved city, and it's despite his coming agony, he weeps for others. He weeps for others. I can't even imagine what it would be like to face what he faced knowing full well what he was going to suffer. He was going to be abused and despised and rejected. In fact, on top of all that, he was going to be abandoned of his father. And in spite of all those things, he wept over a city that rejected him. He wept over a city that rejected him. The Bible says in Ecclesiastes 1.18, in much wisdom is much grief. He knew what was happening. In fact, he goes on and describes the destruction by Titus in just a few short years. He, in much wisdom is much grief. And he that increaseth knowledge increases sorrow, increases sorrow. I have no doubt that there was joy in Jesus' heart at times, but you don't see him being a comedian, a stand-up comedian in a gathering of people. He had a great deal of burden upon him all the time, didn't he? Lamentations 3.51, mine eye affecteth my heart. He looked out over that city that was beloved to him. Think about it. That was the city of David. That was the city for whose peace you're supposed to pray because in the peace of that city, we'll have peace. That city, he looked out over that city and it was a mess, wasn't it? It was a terrible mess. In fact, that city was going to come together and reject him. and he wept over that city and he wept despite what he was going to bear. So when we start thinking about the burdens we bear, they're nothing compared to what Jesus bore. He was dying on the cross bearing your sins and mine and experiencing the abandonment of his father and yet he spent time to welcome the thief that repented just to be in the face of all the people in this world think you have to be baptized to be saved. Just to be in the face of all the people that have other false doctrines And he welcomed that one by faith to himself. All these things that he bore, he bore it knowing full well what was coming. Gives us an idea of what's important, doesn't it? Let's pray. Lord, would you bless our time together? Father, I'm a little off routine today, and you know that affects me, but Lord, I sure thank you for these good people. Pray that you'd speak through me the words you'd have them to hear, Father, and that you would be glorified in all that's said and done, and Lord, that what might come forth is the grace of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in whose name we pray, amen. Well, If you want to speak of Isaiah 53, I would entitle this the man of sorrows. The man of sorrows. There are times when you know there are certain things that are going to happen in the near future that are going to be hard for you to bear. It might be the passing of a loved one. It might be the realization that someone you cared for has turned their backs upon the gospel. It might be anything like that. But when you are described as a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, and so much so that we hid our faces from him, that's a description of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. This man of sorrows, number one, I want to describe for you his heavy burden. His heavy burden. The verses that strike me on this, and there's so many more than this. In verse 42 it says, If thou hadst known even thou at least in this thy day. Now we have on the back of our bulletin the birthdays of different people. Florence Burrell and Andrea, their birthdays. In a sense that's your day, but this is far more than that. This was the coming of the Messiah they've been looking for since Genesis 3. This is the coming of Messiah that each of the blanks has been filled in variously through the book of Isaiah and all the other places where someone was going to come that would be the king of the people of Israel, sit on David's throne, and it was prophesied long before David came about, but there was going to be one that came to redeem us. He was going to come from this people of Israel. and you look at the heavy burden, look at the opportunities that were there before them because it was their day. How many of them would have known that Jesus was overlooking the city and He was the one that was bearing their sins away. It was their day. They had an opportunity there. It was the Messiah, that is God with us in their midst. It was the creator of the heavens and the earth in their midst. And we know that if you want to talk about origins in this world, don't talk to a scientist. You talk to the Creator, because He's the one that was there. He's the one that spoke it into existence, and the very Creator of the heavens and the earth was the one they were about to abuse, and they showed their fickle nature, but He stood over that city. He was the Messiah that was in their midst, and they despised and rejected Him. The Bible tells us in verse 45, after this time, verse 45, he went into the temple and began to cast out them that sold therein and them that bought, because that place was a den of thieves. The opportunity that was there in this their day, they had the needs that were shown easily by that temple, how that religion had become a business and the businessmen were crooks and nothing to be respected and All the opportunities were there because the one that could set it right was standing on that hillside, weeping over that city. You notice in verse 47, he taught daily in the temple. These last days, these last days before he was crucified, he taught even in the temple after he'd cleansed it. He taught in the temple. Wouldn't you love to have been able to hear what he said? I looked on my phone real fast tonight while Steve was singing, and I don't like to do that, but this time I was trying to find Spurgeon's last words from the temple, from the Metropolitan Tabernacle, and that pulpit there, and I'll try to find them this afternoon, but they're wonderful. You know what they are? It's someone that speaks of the Savior they've served all their life, and words fail us. Words fail us. And that Savior spent time teaching in that temple that he had to cleanse from the filth of violent and vile people pretending to be religious. and yet he taught the people in that temple. Now, you notice from Luke chapter 2 when his parents found him in the temple debating with the doctors of law, they marveled at what he knew. Do you suppose he knew as much or more by the time he's a man whose ministry is almost concluded? He taught in that temple. Wouldn't it be wonderful to sit at his feet? Wouldn't it be wonderful to have stood with Him, walked with Him on the road to Emmaus? Wouldn't it have been wonderful to hear Him speak the very words of God when He is the Word of God in the context of human nature, speaking to us as we were humans? Man, the opportunity there and the burden that He bore are remarkable if just one had turned to Him. I was looking at remnant. I read through the book of Romans yesterday. I was looking at remnant and I thought about remnant all over the Bible. How that Elijah wasn't aware of 7,000 who hadn't bowed the knee to Baal. And how in Romans 11 that there's still a remnant according to the election of grace. And all over your Bibles there are people that still stand up for the Lord and you may not be aware of them. But I know this, there was a great opportunity there as he stood over that city and prayed for that city and prayed with the burden that he had. He was a master teacher. There was opportunity, but there was need too. You looked over that city and you couldn't help but see the presence of the Roman soldiers. You couldn't help but see the presence of a foreign nation, the presence of soldiers that would just as happily kill you as anything else. Who's going to call them to question? and this great and magnificent city, which is called the city of David from the day that David took that city from the Jebusites, that is called consistently the city of David, and it's the throne of David that one day this same Jesus is going to sit upon and rule this world. This same city is occupied by Roman legions now. Roman legions. The corruption was incredible. And what strikes me is this, these verses I've mentioned, the people in John 12 and verse 43, think about this, this is what Jesus had to deal with. John 12 and verse 43, it says, for they, this is speaking of religious leaders, they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. Yes, there was an opportunity, but there was a desperate need. These religious leaders, Jesus sat in the temple and taught. These religious leaders taught them. They taught them things they shouldn't be teaching. Why? Because they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. When that is the condemnation of the religious leaders, there's a problem, isn't there? When you love the praise of men, you see the TV evangelists start changing the words of God to be acceptable across a broad spectrum, which takes all the power of the gospel away from it, and probably wouldn't leave you with anything. Not only that, not only that, in John 11, verse 48, this is when they're thinking about killing Lazarus once again. It says, If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him, and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. These religious leaders were content to have the foreign nation there ruling them as long as they could have their fine home in this city. Remember, Paul said he profited in his religion above many as equal in his own nation. They had their fine homes in the city. They had their prestige and all that, and they didn't know the God they claimed to serve. They resisted the Savior that came to save them. They resisted in every way. The corruption was palpable, wasn't it? And you know, in Deuteronomy 4, it tells us that God established the nation of Israel and gave them his law, that they might be a beacon to the nations. Do you suppose it's an accident that people are going after our Constitution, in particular, the First Amendment, the right to free speech? We have to moderate that. I've heard Hillary say, and I don't want to go into that, really. Oh, you Christians have to change your thinking on this abortion thing. No, you don't have any business telling me what to think. No business whatsoever. None. But that's the kind of corruption these people, they would teach, obviously they wanted to control the teaching. It didn't cost them anything from their comfort. And in, look at Matthew 23, a companion passage. Matthew 23, the whole chapter is on the Pharisees and how, what a mess they are. Matthew 23 and verse 37, Jesus says this, O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets. All these prophets that were sent to them. They killed him. Imagine Isaiah. Imagine Isaiah, the prince of the prophets. Imagine Jeremiah, the weeping prophet. Ezekiel, a man who had a heart for the people of Israel. How do I know that? Because the day his wife was taken from him, he couldn't even mourn for her. And it was to illustrate to a faithless people, by physical things, what was going to come to them, and they needed to get their spiritual house in order. O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, now that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings? And you would not. You know what the heart of Jesus is, the man of sorrows? He just wanted to draw them to himself. These very ones that crucified him, Father forgive them, they know not what they do. This thief that instead of continuing his slander of Jesus on that middle cross, came to him in faith and Jesus welcomed him. This day you'll be with me in paradise. And he says, how often would I have gathered you together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings and you would not. Verse 38, behold your house is left unto you desolate. People are free today to rebel against God, but the fruit of that rebellion is going to be an empty house, a desolate house, a house falling into ruins. The need was terrible, wasn't it? That city of David, and we're to pray for the peace of that city? But how urgent is it? Look at verse 43. For the day shall come upon thee that thy enemies shall cast a trench about thee, encompass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, and shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee, and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another, because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation. in just a few short years, probably around 30 years later. Titus came and destroyed the city of Jerusalem and they were left without a nation for 2,000 years. Why? Because they didn't understand the time of their visitation. Jesus, God, the Creator, was near to them. His visitation, He was there. There were people that were lost that were glad to see Jesus, hoping He would perform some miracle. There were people that benefited from Him. For instance, legion who fought against Him until Jesus cast the devils out of Him. Then you find them at Jesus' feet. It's an amazing thing. But Titus is coming and destroying the city of David so that walls are broken down the temple that Jesus is speaking in. A temple that would be incredible to look at, incredible to see how everything was covered in gold and the odors that came from it were beautiful and wonderful and everything about it was designed by God, a design given as the architect given to man. Well, the urgency is, Titus is coming. There's a payday coming. There's a payday coming. Today, people are free to turn their backs on God, and they'll say vile and vicious things about not just God, but those that love Him and serve Him. And it's insane, isn't it? It's insane. Because our God, just like Jesus said, how often would I have gathered you under my wings? How often would I have received you and you would not? And the fruit of that is desolation. Desolation. Yes, he bore a heavy burden, but secondly, there was a chronic blindness, wasn't there? Religion resists the obvious. Religion resists the obvious. The woman at the well in John 4 was a Samaritan woman. And they marveled that Jesus even spoke to a Samaritan woman. Because the Jews don't mingle with the Samaritans. And you know what she said in John 4, 29? Hey, he told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ? This Samaritan woman, an outcast from the people of Israel, not a part of the body of Israel, she had more sense than the Jews did. Isn't that amazing? How about the man born blind? I love these verses. The man born blind, you see the cowardice, you see the control of the religious leaders. In John chapter 9, And verse 22, John 9 verse 22, you see it starting out, These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews. For the Jews had agreed already that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue. We'll throw you out of the synagogue if you confess that he's Christ. What is the reason for that? His parents, in verse 20, answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind, but by what means he now seeth we know not, or who hath opened his eyes we know not. He is of age, ask him, and he shall speak for himself. But they were afraid that the Jews would throw him out of the synagogue. That was the center of their worship. Look at verse 30. Then the man answered and said unto them, Why, herein is a marvelous thing. This is a man born blind. Here's a marvelous thing that you know not from whence he is, and yet he's opened my eyes. It's not been seen since the foundation of the world that a man born blind is now given his sight, and you don't know where he came from. So this man that they assume is born in sin because he's born blind, And yet that blindness was to show the glory of God and the grace of God. This man had better theology than the theologians of that temple, and that's often the case today. That's often the case today. The man born blind, lots of other verses there read the whole thing. And how about legion? The man whose very name just means he was possessed of a bunch of devils. When the devils were cast out of him, first of all, he was sitting clothed in his right mind. But he was sitting at the feet of Jesus and wanted to stay there. I don't understand people that don't care about church. I want to be at church. I want to be at church. He was sitting at the feet of Jesus, and not only that, he wanted to stay at the feet of Jesus, and Jesus said, no, you just stay here and tell the people of this community what God's done for you. And they were glad to be rid of Jesus, but after a little bit of his testimony, which is what believers are supposed to be doing, they welcomed him when he came back again. He had better theology than those religious leaders, didn't he? But not only that, our flesh ignores the spirit. Comfort is more important to especially religious leaders, even if you have to be hypocritical to be comfortable. That's some of the battle that goes on in people's hearts. Man, someone can get under the preaching of the gospel and they don't need to get saved. And sometimes you put that off for a while. because you're just sure that, what are people going to say? In this church, if someone came down this aisle and said, I need to get saved, there'd be hallelujah and shouts, and Scott back there would be charismatic. And I'm glad for that. I'm glad for that. When someone, why shouldn't we, because the Bible says, when one soul is converted, there's joy in the presence of the angels of God. We'll just join their singing and their joy. Don't you think? The flesh ignores the spirit and people will protect their reputation at the expense of any relationship with God. You know what a testimony does? It shows what God's doing in your hearts. I've read some lately. They're just a blessing to me, just a blessing to me. To see what God has done in your heart and how he drew you. I remember as a little kid, for some reason, and this happens, I was thinking this this morning, as a little kid, I'd walk with my eyes closed, just begging God not to kill me. And I'm, you know, I'd been, I was probably eight or 10 years old. I was at church long enough to know that I was a sinner, but I never heard the gospel. Just, God, please don't kill me. Just, I don't want to go to hell. And there wasn't great theology there, but there was a great understanding of need there. And then my aunt opened her Bible, showed me how to be saved and go to heaven when I died. And the tears came down my eyes as a 12-year-old, and I trusted Christ as Savior. It's never been the same since. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. The flesh ignores the spirit. And folks will take their reputation over a relationship with God and what a fool's errand, isn't it? But how about the ignorance of peace? You don't know what pertains to your peace. What they wanted in Israel in that day was for Jesus to be the king physically and militarily so that he could get rid of the Romans that they were kowtowing to. In other words, let someone else fix my problem with a lack of character. And if Jesus had come as a king at that moment, they would have followed him with no relationship to him. Because our need is not politics. Our need is a walk with the Savior who wants to save us. ignorance of their peace. I had a Romans teacher in college, and I've said this before, I think it was Romans, I can't remember which chapter it was, he said, just let me tell you, ignorance is ignorance, it's not bliss. Ignorance is ignorance. And to be in a church where you're going to hear the gospel plainly spelled out, where you can know that Jesus Christ died for your sins, was buried and rose again the third day, that you might have life in him, that tells us that Jesus died bearing sins that weren't his own. If you die bearing your own sins, you won't come out of that grave. Not until the judgment puts you in the lake of fire. To hear the gospel is a precious thing. They were ignorant of peace. Isaiah 48 said, if you'd just listen. If you'd just listen and heeded me, then had your peace been as a river. You ever stand and look at the river as it passes by? And it's just endless. It just keeps going. Sometimes they're very slow moving. Sometimes they're rushing. And peace is like a river. It just keeps coming. keeps coming, Jeremiah 29, 11, I know the thoughts that I think toward you, thoughts of peace and not of evil to bring you an expected end. These people were protecting their own physical bodies at the expense of the peace that God offered them freely. It's awful, isn't it? Psalm 119, 165 said, great peace have those that love thy law. and nothing shall offend him." Think about that. When you love this book, you have a peace that the world knows nothing about. When you don't stand in judgment of this book and correct this book, you have a peace the world knows nothing about because you're asking God to speak to you. You're not telling God what he was trying to say. great peace. And John 3 and 18, it may not be exactly the words you want, but John 3, 18, it says, He that believeth on him is not condemned. You know why the peace comes? Because I'm no longer under the condemnation of God. I'm no longer sin that caused Jesus' death. I'm no longer that sin that separates me from me and the love of God. I'm not any of those It says, but he that believeth not is condemned already. What I lost when I got saved that day was the condemnation of God. The condemnation of God, it's not just that. Look at verse 36, this chapter that's very familiar. It says, he that believeth on the son hath everlasting life. It doesn't say might have. If he perseveres to the end, I hope so. It says, if you believe on the son, you'll have everlasting. I have everlasting life. And if you want to think that's pride, you're only partly right. It's pride in my savior because he took me and I'm not worth it. Wonderful Savior. Wonderful Savior. For he that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life, and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him. Yeah. Ignorance of peace. I have peace with God. So many other verses on that. In Ephesians 2.14 it says, He is our peace. You know why I have peace? Because He is my peace. He's my peace. We were aliens to God. We were in sin going our own way. And Jesus intervened and saved our souls. He is our peace. And you know, the sad thing about this is they're blind to the judgment that's still coming that's on its way. Aren't they? I read, and I've got to read this, and it came from Spurgeon. He said, you should read Josephus' account of Titus, the judgment of Israel in 70 AD. What it showed there was absolutely horrific, starving to death, and I won't even go into it. Josephus, the Jewish historian, he accounted what happened when Titus destroyed Jerusalem. And Titus came and saw what was going on, and it made him violently sick. They didn't see the judgment was coming, but then they hadn't seen the grace that was offered. Terrible, isn't it? Number three, look at this, the incredible blessings. He had no apprehension himself of the things that were about to happen. He knew it was going to happen. He knew that all things were in place. In Luke 22, 53, he says, This is your hour and the power of darkness. He was fighting not just physical life. He was fighting the power of darkness, the prince of this world, John 14, and being forsaken of God. Why did he do that for each and every one of you in here? I trusted Christ as Savior in 1967. What a joy that was. What a joy that was. And I have no doubt that when He was on the cross, I was on His mind. Because He's God, after all. And he was forsaken of God, but that was just part of the price to pay to redeem us from our sins. The incredible blessings, he showed absolutely no apprehension for what was coming his way. No tempering of his emotion by rejection. They rejected him and he still held out grace and invitation to those that abused him. Still did so. He has no pleasure in the death of the wicked. Ezekiel 33, 11. God has no pleasure in their death. What He wants is for them all to come to Him. And these people, probably the vast majority of them, way more than that probably, they turned from Jesus who was there weeping for them, and really interceding for them, and then dying for them, and the vast majority didn't trust Him because He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. He has no pleasure in the death of the wicked. And Jesus has that same heart's attitude. Well, every consideration of his example to us. Incredible blessings there. He's thinking about how we're going to be blessed by reading its account. This is Luke's perspective by inspiration. Luke, the great, the beloved physician. He records things that a physician would see that most people would not. And he records those things for our benefit. That's why God gave four different perspectives. And Matthew, I thought about this. Matthew, Steve was speaking this morning. John was a son of thunder and he became the apostle of love. What about Matthew? He was the tax collector. Everyone hated who spoke of the kingdom of heaven. That's only in the book of Matthew, the gospel of Matthew, the kingdom of heaven. He spoke of the kingdom of heaven when he represented a wicked kingdom on this earth. God changed him, didn't he? God changed him. Well, he didn't temper his emotion by that rejection, and every consideration was given to his example to us, that we might love the unlovely, that we might show that living without Christ is grief. To die without him is horror. You know, you can live every day without Christ with your back up against him, but when you die, It's a horror. The rich man died and in hell he lifted up his eyes in torments. Happens that fast. Faster still. And John 6.37 says this, him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. Do you understand what a joy that is? What a joy that is. I've had many people tell me, and I know I'm over time, he wouldn't let me come up here. I've had people tell me I'm too wicked to come to Jesus. That's just not true. That's just not true. You don't know where I've been. That's not, I don't have to know where you've been, but I know this. If you come to Jesus, he is not going to cast you out. He'll receive you as a son, just like the purest of children that comes to him without ever even knowing their load of sin. Cause I'm certain that babies go to heaven. And you know, it says in this thy day, the son of God was amongst them. And you know what happens? When God is lifted up, Bible says, if I'd be lifted up, I'll draw all men unto myself. I hope you've gotten just a little taste, a vision, a picture of Jesus Christ and all he suffered for us and his heart for us. Is he pleading with your heart today? Maybe you've never trusted him as Savior. Maybe there was never that day when you said, I'm a sinner and I know without him, I'll go to hell. You've never said, God, I want you to forgive me of my sin and save me. I'm not saying just calling out to him, God, help me out of this and I'll be a preacher. I'm saying, God, I'm a sinner. I don't deserve your grace. Would you forgive me of my sin and save me? It'll be the greatest day of your life. I had a man on his deathbed. Pray those words. Don't see that very often. Don't gamble. You'll do it. I've had kids pray those words. I've had young adults pray those words. And that song I think we sang last week, you'll never be sorry that you trusted the Lord. Never one time will you be sorry. He stood and looked over that city and he wept over it. He had a burden for that city and despite all the things that were ahead in his way, he endured all those things that he might give life to those that come to him. I came to him, have you? And once you've come to him, you have a walk with him, and sometimes he taps you on the shoulder again. When he's speaking to you about further surrender, not salvation all over again, you're saved once. But he's speaking to you. And sometimes we turn him off then, too. You should never do that. Why? His thoughts toward us are peace, not evil. He has an objective for you. He wants you to be in this place one day, and you're heading that direction. What's he doing in your heart today? What's he doing in your heart? Have you been wise and you've said, yes, Lord, speak, Lord, thy servant here? Or have you joined the crowd of the Jews there and said, we'll have no king but Caesar. We'll have no king but Caesar. If God's speaking to your heart, we're gonna sing a song in just a minute. If God's speaking to your heart, you ought to come up here and do business with God. You ought to do business with God. You'll never be sorry about that. Let's pray.
