Book of Revelation, we'll just read the first verse of Revelation chapter 4 verse 1 and I'm going to just do a quick review of what we covered in Sunday School. Revelation chapter 4 verse 1 it says, After this, I looked, and behold, a door was open in heaven, and the first voice which I heard was as it were a trumpet talking with me, which said, come up hither, and I will show thee things which must shortly be hereafter. Let's pray. Dear Lord, again, we thank you for this day. We thank you for your love, Lord. I pray that you might just be with us today, Lord, that in all things we might glorify you, and we'll thank you and praise you, and ask this all in Jesus' precious name, amen. You may be seated. And again, thank you for praying for me. I'm sure Brother Gabe will appreciate your prayers. You know, it's a humbling and awesome thing to stand before you in a pulpit. Just like you fathers out there, the responsibility God gives you to train up your children. So if you have, you know, I never grew up in a Christian home. My dad took off when I was little. My mom took off. So I'd never had a Christian influence until some of my friends were going to church. And because of that, I eventually got saved after hearing the gospel for six and seven months. And I said, I'm thankful that as of the 25th of this month, it had been 50 years since I've been saved. So I thank and praise God for all his blessings, for the godly wife he's given me, And for my children that I can bring up in church and train and grandkids I can try to be an influence on. So I want you fathers out there especially to always be mindful of the impact you have on your children. That surveys and statistics show how much a kid will stay in church if they're influenced by their father. So how you walk, how you talk, how you live, is a big determination on your children's future. We looked at Revelation here earlier in Sunday school and I'm just going to give a brief overview of the first four verses that we covered. And it says, after this I looked and behold a door was opened. I said the Jews believe that the day of trumpet, which I think this represents, when it starts, that they basically have a 10-day window. And the Jews use this expression. They say on Rosh Hashanah, said the gates of heaven are open. And they say that God has the book of life out. And you need to be repentant and doing good works And if you're not repentant, they believe that God will take their name out of the book of life. I am thankful that we as believers never have to worry about that. We don't depend upon our own righteousness, our own good works, but it's all through the honor and glory to God that Jesus Christ came and died on the cross for us and shed his blood. And John is getting a glimpse of heaven He's taken out of this pit, this island called Patmos. I know your father, Jason, he said he was on that island. And he said when he was in the service, and he said he wanted to do sightseeing. And whoever it was, whether it was one of the persons who said, there's nothing to see on this island. It's just a bunch of rocks. And that was John was facing. And God comes down and speaks to John. He says, come up hither. And I said, one day, all of us, as true believers in Christ, will hear those same words, come up hither. And I believe this is after the rapture, after chapter three, you don't see the word ecclesia, church, mentioned until chapter 21 and 22 in the Bible, Book of Revelations, and it's connected with heaven then. After this you always see Jew, Gentile, Israel and they use the word saints. So John is taken to heaven and I think God is preparing his heart for what's coming to his people. John and Paul and most of the apostles were persecuted by their own people. Brother Padgett mentioned pray for our country. We are in dire stretch in this country. But you must remember that we should always have a heavenly perspective, not an earthly perspective. If I had an earthly perspective, I would probably just want to end everything and go to heaven. But we know who holds the future and what he means to us. Verse 5, let's skip down to verse 5. We saw John in the first four verses. He's taken to heaven. He sees the majesty and the splendor and the glory of God on the throne. He sees all these 24 thrones round about the throne. The Bible says we're a royal priesthood, that we have access to God. The Bible says we can come boldly to the throne of God. It wasn't like in the Old Testament that only the priests could go, and high priests could only go once a year. And he had to be careful on that day. He always wore bells on his outfit because if he did something wrong, if he touched the ark, if he didn't have his sins confessed and right, God would kill him and they would have to bring a hook in and drag him out. But the Bible says we have access to God, that we can come to His throne boldly. Because we now are His children, not His servants. We serve Him down here, but He is our Father and we are sons and daughters with Christ. So we have multiple blessings. Verse 5, it says, And out of the throne proceeded lightning and thunders and voices. And there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven spirits of God. I mentioned earlier, the Bible says, it talks about, "...and out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunders and voices." Now they made, the Hebrew word kolth, it could mean voice, sound, or thunder. So, when you hear God talking about the voice and the thunders on the mountain, you use that word call. But you know it also when God was coming in the Garden of Eden to confront Adam and Eve about their sin. He uses that same word. When they said they heard the voice of God, you could almost say they heard the thundering or the loud voice of God saying, Adam, where are you? God knew where Adam was, he just wanted Adam to know where he was. And sometimes he speaks to us that same way. He knows we're sinners, he knows everything about us. He just wants us to realize that he knows that. That we don't come in our own righteousness, our own power, our own glory, we come to God in his righteousness through his son. It says here, and again I said it reminds me that when you hear the thunderings and the lightnings, when the Ten Commandments were given, the law was given on Mount Sinai, in Exodus chapter 19 it talks about the voice and the thunders and the trumpets and the lightning, and now in heaven, as God prepares to bring judgment upon the world, You know, they heard that thunder and lightning when the law was given. Now, when God's getting ready to bring judgment upon the world, they hear those same sounds. And God's telling them, get ready, judgment is coming. I mentioned earlier about the Feast of Trumpets, that they had basically a ten day window from when the trumpet was sounded, and God had the gates of heaven open, and He had the Book of Life out. And then you had the seven days of Sabbath repentance, a return, that God gave him seven days to get ready for Yom Kippur, the day of atonement or the day of judgment. And God is giving his people and the world in the book of Revelation seven years to repent. To hear his voice, to hear his thunderings, to hear his law. And the Feast of Trumpets, they blew the trumpets every day until Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, the Day of Judgment. And we'll see that in the book of Revelation, whether we get to it today or not, but God sounds trumpets and after each trumpet a seal is broken and God brings judgment. He's trying to get the world's attention. You don't want to be, if you're not saved today, you don't want to go through that time. You don't want to have to worry about whether your name is going to be blotted out. Right now, we're under grace. You can know for sure, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you're going to heaven one day. Back then, will they hear his voice? Verse 5, And there were seven lamps of burning fire before the throne. You know, these seven lamps are constantly burning. In the temple, in the tabernacle, the lamps were never to go out, they always were lit. Here too, we see in heaven, the light of God's presence is always there. The Spirit He's with us now, down here, God the Spirit is with us, giving us light, not only to this world, but the situation we find ourselves in. And it says here, the light will never go out, which are the seven spirits, and it makes you think of the seven, and there's not seven Holy Spirits, but the Bible talks about the work of the Spirit. It talks about where He imparts light, He gives consolation, He creates a new heart, He sanctifies us. You know, the Holy Spirit is working with us. But one day, the Bible says that the Antichrist will show up on this earth after the Holy Spirit is taken out. And where does the Holy Spirit reside now? In our hearts. So, when the Spirit's taken out, You see the picture that we're going to be taken out. You see the church now in heaven. You don't see it here on earth after chapter 3. And he says, the Spirit of God is present with us. Verse 6. And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal, and in midst of the throne and round about the throne were four beasts full of eyes before and behind." What do we see here? We see all these elders, we see these people, we see this vision that John is having, and it says, there was like unto a sea of glass. Well, if you remember your Old Testament, my wife right now, she's teaching the children about the tabernacle and the temple. So if you have any questions, you might be able to ask your child that's in my wife's class. And the brazen laver, when a priest came to the temple or to the tabernacle, before they could come in, they had to be clean. And what they do, they had this, and sometimes it was called the sea. They had this big washbasin, if you want to call it, sitting on 12 oxen, facing north, south, east, and west. And it said, I believe, if I remember right, it contained 2,000 baths. So the priests, before they could approach the temple of God, they had to come in and be ceremonially clean so they would wash themselves. It wasn't an option whether you want it to be clean or not. Before you went before the tabernacle to approach God's presence, you had to be clean. They would do this daily, multiple times when they went in and out of the temple. Here we see what? We see a C like on the crystal. relates to the brazen labor, the judgment. But what's different about this one? It says, the sea like unto crystal. It was clear, it was beautiful. What exactly it was like, we just have a glimpse of heaven. But you notice it doesn't say anything about water. And that's the wonderful thing about this picture. One day, when we're in heaven, We won't have to worry about the daily cleansing. We'll forever be cleansed through Christ's righteousness and his blood. There will be no need to do that daily, in and out. And it's like, OK, there's a sea of crystal glass. And the Bible says that we can approach God boldly. We can come to him as father. At work, if I'm having to go into a manager or director's office, I just don't walk in and say, hey, here's what I want done. I go in respectfully. But my kids, it doesn't matter what I'm doing, they'd come in, flop down, my grandkids the same. I remember we had some of the kids and grandkids over at the house for pizza one night. My grandson, he comes in, flops on the couch beside me, and reaches over and pulls the pepperoni right off my pizza. He did a bully. I go, you know you can get away with that, don't you? You know, one day in heaven, we'll have free access to God as a loving father. And John is getting a glimpse of this picture, this splendor and glory of God. You know, I said God's preparing his heart. And in the midst of the throne and round about the throne were four beasts full of eyes before and behind. It says, Miss, now I don't think necessarily it has to be right in the center of heaven. I think that when you're in heaven, that every creature had clear view of God. They could see God, his wonders, his glories. They could know God. they had access to God. Sometimes I'm disturbed by some of these preachers I hear, especially some of the charismatic preachers. I thought about not saying name, but I will. I remember listening to Jesse Duplantis, and he said he went to heaven. I think listening to that when he was talking, I think it took him maybe eight minutes into his message before he mentioned anything about God or Jesus Christ. He was talking about his mansion he had in heaven and how it was decorated in a Cajun theme. And hearing him say, well, Jesus came up and he said, so what do you think about this? I do not believe when I get to heaven Jesus or God is going to ask me my opinion on how he should do things. I don't think Jesse DePlantis has the same Jesus that I have. You know, I think there's many false prophets. Sometimes people might err in different things, but some people, I question whether they're truly saved or not. I don't know, because only God can see the hearts. Sometimes we can get off on all kinds of things, and that's why when you hear any preacher, whether it's me preaching, pastor, Brother Elijah, Brother Gabe, you look at what does scripture say. That's our only inspired, infallent word. Now I trust Pastor, I trust Gabe, even though I don't know what he's preaching on tonight, or Wednesday night, but you match everything up with God's word. If it contradicts God's word, you know it's not true. What else do we see here? It says there were four beasts, each had six wings about them. If you look at the book of Ezekiel, the book of Isaiah, you have sort of the same things. You see seraphims and cherubims having six wings. Now, they call them the living creatures, angels. Satan, before he sinned, he was called an anointed cherub. God, when man sinned and they had to leave his presence in the Garden of Eden, the Bible said he put cherubims to guard the way so that man wouldn't try to come back into paradise in his sinful state and eat the tree of life. Think of how the blessing that is to Adam and Eve. They may have not thought it was a blessing, But imagine if they would have eaten a tree of life and lived forever in their sinful state. It'd be like a hell on earth. We see these four creatures. The Bible says they had eyes before and behind. That shows God's omniscience, his ever-presence. You know, I mentioned sometimes we can get depressed down here on Earth. And when we do, because I'm sure all of us do it one time or another, remember that God sees what we're going through. It doesn't take him by surprise. He's not like, oh, I didn't know that was happening. He knows what you're going through, the struggles, the trials. All the heartaches you go through of friends or family rejecting Christ. Just the prayer requests we had today. People losing loved ones. People getting sick. God sees what we're going through. You know, the Bible says one day he'll wipe away all tears and all sorrows. We might go through those down here on the earth. But one day, God will make everything right. I said, David, he saw the wicket, said they're prospering, they are being blessed. And then, just like John was taken into the throne room of heaven, the Bible says that David, he said, I thought the wicket were winning, that they were prospering, until I went to the house of God. Until I had God's view on things, I thought this was in a mess. Now, from our perspective, it is in a mess. But God has a purpose and a plan for everything. These tribulations that we see, these plagues and these things we see in the book of Revelation, God has a purpose to try to get the hearts of his people to turn to him. I had one of my friends at work, her and her husband both got cancer. And she claimed to be a Christian. She said her husband claimed to be a Christian. And she asked me, Barry, do you think it's because I haven't been going to church? I said, I don't know. But it might be God's trying to get your attention. It might be God saying, hey, something needs to change in your life. I said, we all go through trials and troubles. And sometimes God sees what we're going through. And sometimes He has to bring hard things in our life to get our attention. Just like He's going to bring on the world one day. I said the Feast of Trumpets, they blew the trumpets every day to try to get people's attention. Judgment day is coming. And what is going to be your condition on that day? I've had many close calls to death in my life. You know, boys don't always think. I remember as a teenager holding on to a car, my cousin's car, on a bicycle going 70 miles an hour. And I got knocked loose from that car by my buddy in front of me as we went around the curve. Thankfully, God preserved me in my stupidity. As we hit that curve, I flew right over my bike handle, but right where that curve was was a river. So I landed, it still stung, but how close I came to death. We don't know how many chances God gives us. Any of us here could walk, the Neelands, They didn't know that they were going to get on that plane and die in that crash. But I believe they were all ready. I heard their testimony. I heard their songs of praise to God. I've had other friends that died. I had one friend that died that had his head ripped off. He claimed to be a Christian, but he was living a wicked lifestyle at that point. Was it God taking him home because he wouldn't repent? or God finally taking them out? I don't know. Only God knows. Verse 7, the first beast was like a lion, the second beast was like a calf, the third beast had a face of a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle. You know, I know most Bible commentators and teachers believe this shows the four-fold ministry of Christ. You see that in the Old Testament with some of the visions there. The Gospels, we see that. Matthew, he wrote to the Jews and he portrayed Christ as a king. What do we see here on this first angel? He had the face of a lion. It shows his royalty, his kingliness. I don't know if you ever watch some of these animal things on YouTube and just watching a male lion with its mane shaking its head and when he roars you see all the hyenas and the other animals taking off. Matthew, I said, he portrays Christ as a king to the Jews. What did we see in the next beast, the next angel? The next one was like a calf. What is the calf known for? Mark writes and portrays Christ as a servant, a calf. And he writes to the Romans. The Romans had everybody serving them. And here we see a picture of Christ through these angels as a servant. Remember, Christ was the king of heaven. And what did he do? He left heaven and came down to earth. And what did he say? I didn't come to be served. I came to serve. And that's when, remember, his disciples were arguing who was going to be the greatest in the kingdom. And James and John sort of asked Christ, hey, can we sit in your right hand, left hand? And the rest of the disciples were upset. And what did Christ do? He goes and gets out a basin and starts washing their feet. You don't have to ask my wife. Sometimes my feet don't smell the best. And I remember my brother, up in Pennsylvania, he had these shoes on. I don't know how long he had them on. But my wife walks into the house, what is that smell? But what did Jesus do? He didn't worry about the stink. He didn't worry about the smell. He came, did what a servant would do, wrapped a towel around his waist, bent down, and started to wash. And Peter, oh no Lord, you'll never wash my feet. He said, if I don't wash your feet, you don't have any part of me. And what did Christ say? He said, no, you don't need your whole body washed. I just need to get the dirt off from the day to day. You know, Jews, they wore sandals, they walked around, and they picked up, they had their bath, but they would have these dirty feet from walking those dirt roads. I know in the Philippines, my feet constantly looked like, one, it's the sand and the dirt, but also the sun, my feet looked like they were always dirty. And Jesus here, through the angel, portrays Christ, his work, as a servant. What do we see on the third beast? The third beast had a face of a man. Luke portrays Christ as the perfect man, the one who came to die and take our sins. I had somebody say before, how can God forgive a dirty and wicked sinner? Why? What's one of God's characteristics? Holy. Holy. You know, I have nothing holy in myself. But we saw in the earlier verse about the rainbow, it represents mercy and peace. Even though man was judged and we're still sinners, you see a rainbow in heaven that reminds us of God's mercy. God can forgive us because Christ wasn't only man, but he was God. The perfect God came down to earth and was the perfect man without sin. He was, as John the Baptist said, behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sins of the world. He didn't say as in the Old Testament, behold the Lamb who covers up my sin until next year, like Yom Kippur. What did he say? He said, Christ, this lamb, takes away the sin of the world. Christ came and died, John 3, 16. Most of us probably know that verse. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, his unique precious son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. You know, the Bible teaches, no matter what the world teaches, there is only one way to heaven. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man cometh unto the Father but by me. It also said there's one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus. When I was in the Philippines, it's 98% Catholic. And those priests were mediators. They also had saints, like Mary was a mediator, or Francis of Sices was a mediator, or Thomas was a mediator. The Bible tells me that there's only one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus. It's not going to be, many of you remember an old song, it won't be Buddha sitting on the throne, it won't be old Muhammad that calls us home. It's Christ and only Christ. And what do we see in the fourth beast? The Bible says the fourth beast was like a flying angel. You know, the Gospel of John portrays Christ as God. And he preaches to the world, he preaches to the Christians. I don't know how many of you ever looked and seen an eagle soaring high in the sky. As a kid, I always dreamed I wanted to fly like an eagle, like a bird. A couple times, in my sleep, I dreamt I was flying, I rolled out of bed, I woke up in midair, but I went straight to the ground. Smashed my ear, had blood all over the pillow. But God, John, the apostle, portrays Christ as God. So you have the servant, you have the king, you have the perfect man, the priest, you have God the very God. And we see all that in the four angels. Verse 8, And the four beasts each had six wings about him, and they were full of eyes within. And they rested not day or night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. Now, you see that word holy three times, and I think it's remnant of the Trinity. Sometimes I've talked about the Vaticanus and Sinaticus, the Greek manuscripts that most of the newer versions are put off on. Well, in the Codex Sinaticus, that verse says, holy, holy, holy, holy, holy, holy, holy, holy, eight times. But it also says, one time it'll say 144,000, another time it'll say 140,000. Sometimes it, you know, in the one part later when it says there was an angel with a rainbow around about his head, well, Sinatica says the angel had a hair around about his head. Just some crazy things that some of these manuscripts that I don't think are reliable says. But what do we see here? The four beasts had, each of them had six wings, and I said when we look over at Isaiah and Ezekiel, what did they do with these six wings? When we look at the Old Testament, it says two, they covered their feet. Why? Why would they cover their feet? Well, first of all, six wings. Let's look back at that first. It showed their quickness to do things. As my kids were growing up, and I don't know if any of you young people have this experience, your mom and dad might ask you to do something. I see one dad here and one son, or two sons, I could ask Dave. But I would ask my kids to do things. And if I say, take out the trash, if they come up, OK, set it down. Are they really obeying me? I was telling a couple people yesterday, I was tired. I was working on cleaning out the gutters. And my grandson asked me if he could mow my grass. He wasn't there then. And I said, I come in hot, tired, sweaty. I said, that sounds like a good idea. So my wife text and called. And they said they could come over after supper. Well, you know, my grandson was disappointed that I actually mowed some of the grass. He said, Papa, I wanted to do it all. And I did the parts I thought might be hard for him. And he said, no, I like mowing the ditch, whatever. And you know how pleased we were when he came in. He got done mowing. And my wife got some money out to give him as a reward. And he goes, no, I don't want any money. And my wife goes, oh, my heart. How it just thrilled her. These winged angels, they're quick to serve God. They don't have to say, well, when I get a chance, God, I'll do that. They swiftly obey God. And I think the six wings just show that the speed. You see a falcon flying. That was my high school mascot, a falcon. And I always dreamed of, if I had a bird, I'd like to get a falcon. Or I'd like to do some of the fledgling stuff. But the falcon is the fastest bird on Earth. Could you imagine what he'd be like if he had six wings? Might be a little strange. Might be in the museum. But these angels all had six wings. And it just shows the promptness of how the angels serve God. You see, they covered their feet to show their modesty. They knew they weren't worthy to come before God. They covered their eyes. They showed their humbleness. They had no right. to look upon a holy God. They served God in humility and modesty. They knew that they were only there by the grace of God, that they deserved nothing. And I think that's one reason why you see through all eternity. What do they shout? Holy, holy, holy. They look at God and they said, there's none like God. He separated from all of us. None of us deserve God. I mean, can you imagine every vision in the Bible where somebody had a vision of God, it changed their lives. And if we have a true vision of God, if we see God as he really is, it'll change us. Now sometimes, we're human, we need reminders. Many times I remember what it was like when I was lost. Just my lifestyle. And it's hard to imagine if I would have never got saved where I would be today. My dad spent 20 some years in prison. My mom has been in jail. Half my brothers have been in jail. And other than the grace of God, that could be me. I mean, I was chased by the police for throwing stones at cars at nine years old. They never caught me. I said, the only reason I probably didn't go in jail is because I didn't get caught for doing things. But God sees it. The Bible says they had these wings and they had eyes. They had all these eyes full of eyes within, so it shows the the universal vigilance that God has upon this world. He's always watching over us, whether we see it or not. Like, how did I know that curb was coming up and I was going to get thrown off? God saw it. We drive down the road. Maybe you're a little late. I don't know about you, but maybe your spouse might make you late. Maybe the kids getting ready for someplace might make you late. You go down the road, and you see a wreck in front of you. I remember my wife, she was, I can't remember why she was late a little bit, but she was coming back to the house. And there's a car that ran a stoplight and hit head on into another car. I think that's the story how it goes. If she was a little earlier, that might have been her. We don't always see when God protects us, but we see from this book, this revelation, that God has eyes on us all the time. He's never takes his eyes off of us. He sees what we're going through. He sees when we're good or bad. It's not Santa. It's God. He sees us in our life. Let me close up with this. They rest at night, day or night. You know, God doesn't take a break. He rested when he created the world, but he didn't need to do the rest. He has his angels, his guardians, his servants continually watching over us. They're continually giving him praise throughout eternity. I had one person tell me one time, said, you know, heaven might be boring, because I mean, playing a harp all the time. Now, I'm not a musician, and I don't know whether I play a harp in heaven or what, but I think he had a wrong view of God. You know, God's eternal, omnipotent. You know, we will forever be learning of the glories and wonders of God. I mentioned in Sunday school, I gave my wife her engagement ring, and she held it up and looked at the facets. Now, there's a difference between my wife's engagement ring and the Hope Diamond. Hope Diamond is a lot bigger. It has more facets on it. But you know, God's eternal, omnipotent. There are so many facets to God that will forever be learning of his glories and his wonders. I mentioned earlier in Sunday school there's typologies. Some scholars see 150 different typologies between Joseph and the Old Testament Jesus Christ. Can you imagine when we get to heaven just learning of all his glories? I mean, there's so many things when I get to heaven that I think right now that I want to ask God. I said, God, what was it like on such and such a date? Probably the greatest wonder or question that I think I could probably ask God is, why me? None of us deserves heaven. It's only by the love and grace and mercy of God. And the Bible said he did it for his good pleasure. Now, I don't see why he gets pleasure out of me. But yet, he came, his son came and died on this earth when we were his enemies and died for us to make us his sons. I could never picture having my son die for my enemies, let alone a friend. So when we think about God, about His revelation to man, I pray that you're always reading His word, that you might see more and more glories of Him, and that we're constantly trying to obey God. And remember John 1, 9, you know, we blow it, But God has John 1, 9, if we confess our sins, not sins for salvation, but to the daily cleansing. If we confess our sins, the Bible says He's faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us of all unrighteousness. He wants us to come to Him. He wants us to admit, like Adam. Adam, where are you? Adam, he didn't do real good. He blamed Eve. He blamed the serpent. Really, they blame God, because what did Adam say? It was a woman. You gave me God. I pray that as you go away today, that you might reflect on the glories and wonders of God, His goodness to us, His majesty, His holiness. And I pray that God will, when we look into His word, that He'll use it to change us, to make us what we ought to be. Let's pray. Dear God, again we thank you for all your blessings. Lord, we're thankful for how you came and died on the cross for us. Lord, we're thankful for who you are. And Lord, I pray that if there's any here that don't know you as Savior, as the music plays, that you'll just come and make it right with God. Amen. Let's pray. Stand up and bow your heads. We won't keep you long, but if you don't know Jesus as your personal savior, if you don't, just please raise your hand or just come forward. I can talk to you. We got other men here that can talk to you. Or if you just want to pray for something, you can do it right there in your seat. You can thank God for the blessings you do have, for his wonders and his glories. And I pray that God will just help each of us to live a life pleasing to him. So let's just pray quietly there a minute. that you can make it right, or just give God the glory and praise for the blessings you have. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. Thank you all for coming today. Remember, 545, we have prayer time before the service, six o'clock. Evening service, Brother Elijah will be here tonight. Brother Gabe's gonna be preaching Wednesday night, seven o'clock. And nothing with choir, right Sheila? Okay. So, Brother Jack, if you could close for us in prayer. Amen.
