So shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the Lord, and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord. Trust also in him, and he shall bring it to pass, and he shall bring forth thine righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for him fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way Because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass By the obedience of one shall many be made righteous Romans 5 19 and a joyful truth to miserable sinners. Oh, that this word was ever upon our minds, as the Lord says in Isaiah 55, eight, my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are my ways your ways, saith the Lord. Our thoughts are to make ourselves righteous by our own obedience and our ways are to be justified before God by our own righteousness. But the Lord calls us to forsake these unrighteous thoughts, as well as wicked ways, and to submit by faith to his thoughts and his ways, to be made righteous by the obedience of one Consider, this negative implies that no obedience but one can make any sinner righteous. Oh, professor, what art thou seeking after and striving to be and to do? What is the end of thy praying, reading, hearing, communicating, striving against sin, and seeking to exalt, excel in obedience? Is it to make thyself righteous that it all proceeds from unbelief of this truth? By one obedience shall many be righteous, and by no other obedience whatsoever. Then say some, there is an end to all good works. No, from the faith of this all good works begin. There is indeed an end to all the evil works of unbelief which are done to supplant the one spotless obedience of Christ and making sinners righteous to the establishing the filthy rags of man's righteousness. Taught by the spirit of truth through faith, my soul naturally abhors this, the fallen man that is. I firmly believe whatsoever is not of faith is of sin. Romans 14, 23. An old ancient church article stated, works which do not spring of faith in Jesus Christ have the nature of sin. Hence, oh my soul, no obedience of thine before faith in Christ can make thee righteous. Obedience after faith doth not make thee righteous, for then thou art made righteous by the one obedience of Christ. Settle this matter well in thy conscience. The glory of thy God and the comfort of thy soul spring from it. For it is positively asserted, by the obedience of one, or the one obedience of the Lord Jesus Christ, shall many be made righteous. The faith of God's elect takes the comfort of this, and will love Christ, live upon His righteousness, and give Him the glory of it. But who are made righteous by Christ? one obedience. Many, the many sons whom Christ shall bring to glory, see Hebrews 2.10. Even all who see themselves miserable sinners and believe in Christ for righteousness unto justification of life. What a glorious way is this of making sinners righteous. It secures all the glory to Christ. It keeps the sinner humble before him, dependent on him, and prevents all self-righteous boasting, while it gives the poor sinner the greatest boldness with access of confidence to God. It inspires warm love to Christ and the cheerful obedience of faith." That was from preacher William Mason. A reading from Psalm 73, 23. Nevertheless, I am continually with thee. Thou hast holden me by my right hand. All that went on before this particular verse emphasizes the largeness of this statement of faith by our brother, David. You see, although we can and do act as foolish men and women sometimes, and walk in unbelief as well as just plain doubting the care of our great God, we can, through his pure and free grace, say, nevertheless, as here, we do care about how we live in this world, and how we act before men, but the sole comfort and help in time of need is not our works or deeds or even our don'ts. It is the blessed union that we have with the Son of God. He has promised never to leave us nor forsake us. Even when Peter denied the Lord, he just looked at him and accomplished what no sermon would have done. No, not a hundred sermons could penetrate the heart and melt the soul as it did there. You see, Christ will reign supreme in us and for us, or nothing at all will help our miserable condition. I hope that I can say, as David did so many years ago, nevertheless, I am continually with thee. As one preacher would say, vexed with the tempest within, look to the calm without. Yes, we need to look without ourselves to find true and everlasting righteousness and peace only in the Lord Jesus Christ. Good message from preacher Drew Dietz. A powerful I will from the master. the Lord Jesus. I hate it when people's I will doesn't amount to, as they say in Texas, a hill of beans. Unfortunately, some people often say I will when they privately mean I won't. But when it comes to the I wills of Jesus, if we studied them would see that everything he promised to do, he did, does, and will do. We can trust him on that. Take the example, the I will of salvation. In John 6, 37, Jesus says, all that the Father gives to me, come to me, and he that comes to me, I will in no wise cast out. Literally, I will never, never cast out. We are the Father's gift to the Lord Jesus, and He will never cast us out. Do you trust this promise He has made to you? To come to Jesus means to trust Him for salvation. Unfortunately, there are those who think they are too unworthy to come to Him. If this is how you think, I would remind you that Jesus Christ came to save, not good people, but sinners like you and me, people who have gone astray and have come short of the glory of God. Listen to this I will statement and notice that there are no exceptions. Jesus said, he that comes to me I will in no wise cast out. Not him that comes to church regularly I will in no wise cast out. No. Rather we are to come to him, to Jesus, the faithful Savior, I don't care how bad you feel about yourself. Come to Jesus. He will not cast you out. Come just as you are and take him at his word. He will take those who are full of sin. He will take the despised. He will take the rejected. He will take those who have sunk low into the depths of wickedness. Jesus has come to seek and to save that which was lost. See Luke 19 verse 10. What a powerful I will from the master. He that comes to me I will in no wise cast out. You are not so wicked that Christ Jesus will reject you and that's the gospel truth till he comes That was from preacher miles mckee A reading from isaiah 50 verse 10 Who is among you that feareth the lord that obeyeth the voice of his servant? Servant that walketh in darkness and hath no light let him trust in the name of the lord and stay upon his god Lord help us to do so Praise to Jesus. To the Savior, reigning King, honors to his name we bring. What a kind and gracious friend. May his praises never end. May his praises never end. Not to us, to Jesus be glory, strength, and majesty. Let his people now arise. Praise the Lord of earth and skies. Praise the Lord of earth and skies. With His blood our debt He paid, Full atonement Jesus made, For His death upon the cross, Saved us from eternal loss, Saved us from eternal loss. Evermore Christ reigns above, Author of redeeming love, There He sits upon His throne, In a glory all His own, In a glory all His own. Finished means finished. Done means done. Our Lord Jesus Christ, really, freely, fully, and forever redeemed is elect by his substitutionary sacrifice on Calvary's tree. as it is written by one offering he has perfected forever them that are sanctified by his own blood he entered once into the holy place having obtained eternal redemption for us but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself that good message was from preacher tim james I glory in the cross, a reading from Galatians 6.14, but God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ by whom the world is crucified unto me and I unto the world. I gladly echo the words of the Apostle and say that I too boast in glory only in the cross of our great Savior. By glorying in the cross, Paul does not mean that he boasted or gloried in the wooden beams upon which the Savior died. Instead, he means the doctrine, or the teaching, of the cross. That Christ Jesus, by his sacrificial, substitutionary, and justice-satisfying death, saved His people from our sins, and we therefore glory in Him and His death. I am a sinful, guilty man, but the Spirit of grace has taught me that all I need for eternal salvation is found in the Christ who died on the cross. In His suffering and death, I find the full forgiveness of all my sins, and discover that His righteousness has been imputed to this wicked man. Christ bore my sins in His own body on the tree, and because He bore them, I do not bear them. Since my sins were taken away from me and charged to Him, and since He bore them away into the land of forgetfulness, neither the Savior nor this sinner bears them any longer. As the hymn writer said, My sin, O the bliss of this glorious thought, My sin, not in part but the whole, Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more. Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul. By His one offering for sins, Christ honored the Father and perfected me and all those in whose stead He died. My hope is in the cross death of my Savior. I look to the Savior and His once-for-all offering for sin, and I know that God has made him to be my wisdom and righteousness, sanctification and redemption. Having stated those blessed facts, Paul then declared, according as it is written, he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was and is and is to come. Great is our Lord Jesus Christ, and greatly to be praised. Take heart, friends. Our mighty and glorious King of Glory is inbound for His afflicted saints. Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus. Maranatha.
