01:00 Our subject is "Don't Do Me No Favors."
01:05 That's our subject for this evening and for anyone 01:07 who may be listening outside of the United States, 01:10 that is good grammar in the United States. 01:13 "Don't Do Me No Favors." It is one of the few times 01:17 when a double negative, works quite well. 01:20 Don't Do Me Any Favors just does not sound right. 01:24 God said, "Don't Do Me No Favors" whatsoever. 01:29 I want you to pray in your hearts, as I speak, 01:35 that the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart 01:39 may be acceptable in the sight of God. 01:43 Some of you asked me during the day, 01:45 will I rough you up tonight and the answer is no. 01:48 You never push your luck. 01:50 It just doesn't pay to put even with God's people 01:53 ask Moses, don't push your luck. 01:56 So, no, I won't rough you up tonight. 02:00 But the word will, but I won't. 02:04 The Holy Spirit will and I know 02:06 you will not fight the Holy Spirit. 02:08 You've no fuss, no quarrel with the Holy Spirit. 02:11 You may have it with me, and that's appropriate. 02:14 But I do not believe 02:16 you'll have it with God's Holy Spirit. 02:19 "Don't Do Me No Favors," is our subject for this evening. 02:26 Let us pray. 02:28 Our loving Father in Heaven, 02:29 we come into your presence tonight. 02:32 We thank you Father, we've the freedom, 02:35 the liberty, to come anytime we choose, 24 hours a day, 02:41 because He whom we serve, never slumbers and never sleeps. 02:46 And Father as we gather at Your feet tonight, 02:49 we ask You Lord to shower Your fatherly love upon us 02:53 for the sake of Jesus Christ. 02:56 Receive us through Him we pray, 02:59 and Father grant us the comfort of your undying love. 03:03 Your patience, your mercy, 03:05 your tenderness, your long suffering. 03:08 Open our eyes that we may behold 03:10 wondrous things out of thy law. 03:13 Give us an obedient heart. Give us a loving heart. 03:17 And give to Your manservant the words to say. 03:21 You've said in John 16, verse 13, 03:23 how be it when he, the Spirit of truth is come 03:26 he will guide you into all truth. 03:28 Father guide me and my brothers and sisters 03:31 into truth tonight. 03:34 In Jesus name we pray, let everyone say with me. 03:36 Amen and amen. 03:39 "Don't Do Me No Favors." 03:44 I was listening to Sister Griffin this morning, 03:48 as she spoke on a very, very serious topic, 03:52 and that is all the time 03:54 we dedicate to the God of entertainment. 03:58 Whether by television or videogames, 04:00 or whatever else we do, but all the time we dedicate 04:04 and by allowing our children to watch 04:05 so many hours of television, 04:07 we actually pass them through the fires. 04:12 We sacrifice them to the God's of this world by allowing them 04:16 to sit in front of a television set 04:18 and allowing that set like a garden hose to just spray 04:21 its ungodly contents into their minds. 04:26 I've no children of my own, so you're probably 04:28 saying that he shouldn't talk. 04:29 No, no I should talk, as I'm only telling you 04:32 what you'll read in the writings of Ellen White 04:34 and what you can dig out of the Bible 04:35 if you study it carefully. 04:37 I want other people a million times 04:39 wiser than I am, have said. 04:41 So I hope those of you who attended will take 04:43 what you heard this morning to heart, 04:45 and share it with your friends. 04:47 We must protect our minds. 04:51 If we would shield our mind from worldly influences, 04:54 there may be few occurrences of Adventists saying 04:57 I just can't see it, I just don't see it, 04:59 I just don't understand. 05:00 Why because the mind has been polluted 05:02 and we can't see this or we can't see that. 05:06 She also mentioned 05:07 the importance of the Sabbath this morning. 05:10 And this evening you heard your president, Elder Gallimore, 05:13 he also talked about the beauty, 05:15 the sweetness of the Sabbath fellowship 05:17 that we shall have with God. 05:20 And this evening, I also want to mention 05:22 a little about the Sabbath commandment, 05:25 but from a different approach. 05:28 In the Book, Early Writings, 05:29 Ellen White recounts a vision she had, 05:33 where she was taken up to heaven 05:36 and her tour guide was Jesus Christ himself. 05:40 And Jesus lead her, He pulled back the curtain or the veil, 05:43 lead her into the most Holy place. 05:46 Jesus opened the arc, 05:52 and showed her the Ten Commandments. 05:58 She writes that there was a light 06:01 shining around all Ten Commandments. 06:06 Each commandment was shining and probably so, 06:09 they reflect the very character of God. 06:11 The law is as sacred as God himself. 06:14 So I'm not at all surprised that there is a Shekinah, 06:17 a light, a luminescence, 06:19 a brilliance around the Ten Commandments. 06:23 She went on to say that the first four commandments 06:27 had a brighter light than the last six. 06:33 Now you can determine the significance of that to God. 06:36 The first four had a brighter light 06:41 than the other six. 06:43 Then she said the fourth commandment 06:49 had the brightest light of all. 06:52 There was a halo around the Sabbath commandment. 06:59 Now you don't have to be a Hebrew scholar 07:01 or Greek scholar or Bible scholar 07:03 or graduate of the seminary to conclude immediately 07:06 that in the eyes of God, 07:10 the Sabbath commandment is of great and vast importance. 07:18 If that were not the case, 07:20 it would not have the brightest light. 07:28 Is that sinking in? 07:31 Let me give you something else to consider. 07:35 This is not the law I'm giving you. 07:37 I want you to consider what I'm about to say. 07:39 See if it means anything to you. 07:42 If the Sabbath commandment as Ellen White saw it, 07:46 showed to her by Jesus Christ, shown to her by Christ, 07:49 if it had the brightest light of all the ten, 07:55 could it possibly be, and I'm simply asking, 07:58 could it be the deepest wound 08:01 we can cause to God is to violate the Sabbath commandment. 08:09 The commandment that has His title, His name, 08:12 the commandment from which we get his seal 08:15 as we love to say could it be 08:18 the brightest light suggests to us. 08:21 Could it be. 08:24 That no infraction of God's law hurts him 08:27 more deeply than breaking the fourth commandment? 08:33 Could it be that we ought to be very, very serious 08:38 about expressing our love to God 08:40 through our Sabbath observance? 08:45 Let me pause here abruptly, 08:47 and direct your attention to the Book of Mark Chapter 15. 08:52 What book did I say? Book of Mark. 08:57 Well, the book is not Mark 15, the book is just Mark. 09:01 I asked you what book did I say? Mark. 09:04 Now what chapter did I say? 15. 09:06 Now we're on the same page. 09:08 We shall begin reading from verse 42. 09:11 Four and two. 09:13 Mark 15, reading from verse 42 09:16 as we continue with the subject "Don't Do Me No Favors." 09:23 And now when the event has come, 09:25 because it was the preparation, 09:27 that is, the day before the Sabbath. 09:29 Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable counselor, 09:33 which also waited for the kingdom of God 09:34 came and went in boldly unto Pilate, 09:37 and craved the body of Jesus. 09:42 Craved the body of Jesus. 09:44 Now people who were condemned to be crucified, 09:47 no one wanted their bodies. 09:48 Their bodies were left to rot. 09:50 They were left for the crows and for the vultures. 09:52 It was unusual for someone to come publicly claiming 09:56 the body of the crucified person criminals. 10:00 Crucifixion was the most shameful and painful 10:03 and humiliating and embarrassing way to die. 10:06 Why would someone want to claim a body 10:08 that in the eyes of the Romans was so despised? 10:11 The Romans may associate you with that corpse. 10:16 When a man or a woman is in love with Jesus, 10:19 what the world thinks makes very little difference. 10:24 And so Joseph of Arimathea came and went in boldly unto Pilate 10:28 and craved the body of Jesus and Pilate marveled 10:31 if you were already dead 10:33 and calling unto him the centurion, 10:35 he asked him whether he had been any while dead. 10:37 And when he knew it of the centurion, 10:39 verse 45, he gave the body to Joseph. 10:43 And be bought fine linen, and took him down, 10:46 and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulcher, 10:49 which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone 10:52 unto the door of the sepulcher. 10:55 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Josses 10:58 beheld where he was laid. 11:02 "Don't Do Me No Favors." 11:05 We've two women named Mary Magdalene and Mary, 11:10 the mother of Josses, they beheld. 11:14 They made it their business to find out 11:17 where the corpse of their Savior was laid. 11:23 To add delightful details 11:25 and exciting information to this story, 11:27 let's read the same account, but from the pen of Luke. 11:31 The doctor Luke Chapter 23, 11:33 we shall begin reading at verse 50 11:35 as we continue with "Don't Do Me No Favors." 11:38 Luke Chapter 23, reading from verse 50. 11:44 I must apologize to you. 11:47 I normally don't give you a chance to find these verses. 11:51 Am I forgiven? Say yes quickly. 11:53 Yes. All right 11:55 Do you have Luke 23? Do you have verse 50? 11:59 If you feel like it and you have the King James Version, 12:02 feel free to read out loud with me. 12:07 I don't mind. Worship is participatory. 12:10 Luke 23, verse 50, And, behold, 12:12 there was a man named Joseph, a counselor, 12:15 and he was a good man, and a just. 12:18 The same had not consented onto the counsel indeed of them. 12:21 He was of Arimathea, a city of the Jews, 12:24 who also himself waited for the kingdom of God. 12:26 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. 12:29 Now this is the same account 12:31 which we read in the Book of Mark. 12:34 This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus 12:38 and he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, 12:40 and laid it in a sepulcher, which was hewn in stone, 12:44 wherein never man before was laid. 12:47 And that day was what? The preparation. 12:50 And what happened? 12:51 The Sabbath drew on now, it is highly significant 12:55 that Mark tells us it was preparation time 12:57 and the Sabbath was coming on 12:59 because Mark 15:42 says, now when the even was come, 13:03 Luke says and that there was the preparation, 13:05 and the Sabbath drawn, 13:07 why is it so important to inform us 13:09 that the Sabbath was coming on? 13:14 The Bible says, and the women also, 13:17 which went with him from Galilee, followed after, 13:20 and beheld the sepulcher, and how his body was laid. 13:25 Now we read in Mark Chapter 15, that the women beheld 13:29 where he was laid in Luke Chapter 23, 13:33 they beheld how he was laid 13:35 and so we put the two accounts together, 13:37 these two items of information 13:39 Mary and Mary the mother of Josses, 13:42 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Josses 13:44 they wanted to know where he was laid 13:46 and how the body was configured in the sepulcher. 13:50 They needed that physical information for a reason. 13:55 "Don't Do Me No Favors." 13:59 The Bible says in the last verse of Luke Chapter 23, 14:03 and they returned and prepared spices and ointments. 14:10 Now why were they preparing spices and ointments? 14:16 They earnestly desired to embalm the body of Jesus Christ. 14:23 They wanted to anoint His body. 14:26 They wanted to do what has been done 14:28 for 100s of years or had been done before they lived 14:31 and that was the art of embalming, 14:33 preserving corpses and they're in museums around the world. 14:37 Corpses that have been unbelievably preserved 14:41 through the art of embalming. 14:44 Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of Josses 14:46 and other women wanted to embalm the body of Jesus 14:50 and they were unafraid to come out publicly 14:53 and they went to where the grave was. 14:55 They saw where the grave was. 14:56 They saw how He was laid. 14:58 So they had this picture in mind now. 15:04 They went back, prepared spices and ointments 15:10 and came back to the tomb to anoint Him. 15:14 Thank you my sister or brother. 15:16 No let me say it again. 15:19 The last verse of Luke 23, I think that's verse 56, 15:23 and they prepared spices and ointments first, 15:28 then rested the Sabbath day, how? 15:31 According to the commandment. 15:33 Now, I want you to focus on this verse. 15:39 Whom did they want to anoint? Jesus Christ. 15:45 Who is the Lord of the Sabbath? Jesus Christ. 15:48 Now is there anything wrong with anointing 15:55 the body of Jesus Christ on the Sabbath? 16:00 How, well, yes? 16:05 But before I incorporate that yes, 16:08 which is correct into the message, 16:09 let me go back prior to the yes, 16:12 and ask you if you had been there observing 16:16 Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Josses 16:18 and the other unnamed women 16:20 and you had seen them anointing Jesus 16:22 after the son had said, 16:23 would you have condemned them? No. 16:28 How do you bring someone under condemnation 16:31 for anointing the body of Jesus on the Sabbath? 16:37 If ever there was an excuse to do 16:41 something unsabbatical that must have been it. 16:46 Surely, you cannot fault a person 16:51 who does such a favor for Jesus. 16:57 He was the one who said in Mark 2:28, 16:59 the son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath. 17:02 You're anointing the Lord of the Sabbath 17:04 on the Sabbath what's the problem? 17:09 See Jesus doesn't want us to do Him favors. 17:15 The only favor Jesus requires of you and me 17:18 is loving obedience to His word, 17:22 no matter what. 17:24 I need a bigger amen. 17:26 Loving obedience to the word of God, no matter what. 17:30 Now let us take a look at this woman called Mary Magdalene. 17:33 Who was she? 17:34 How could she be so cold to turn away 17:38 from the body of Her Lord, 17:40 refuse to anoint Him until several hours later? 17:44 Go with me to the Book of Luke, Chapter 7, 17:47 as we continue with "Don't Do Me No Favors." 17:49 Luke Chapter 7, 17:54 and let us begin reading at verse 36. 18:02 Do you have Luke? Yes. 18:04 Do you have Chapter 7, 18:06 and are you poised at verse 36? 18:09 All right, the Bible says 18:10 and one of the Pharisees desired him 18:12 that he would eat with him, 18:14 and he went into the Pharisee's house 18:15 and sat down to meet. 18:17 And behold, a woman in the city, 18:19 which was a sinner, 18:20 when she knew that Jesus sat at meet 18:23 in the Pharisee's house brought an alabaster box of ointment, 18:27 and stood at His feet behind Him weeping, 18:29 and began to wash his feet with her tears 18:32 and wiped them with the hairs of her head 18:34 and kissed His feet and anointed His feet with the ointment. 18:37 Ellen White writes beautifully about this experience 18:40 in the Desire of Ages Chapter 62, 18:43 page 557 is where that begins. 18:46 Read it. 18:48 She combines the version in Mark, the version in John. 18:51 She combines the versions together to give us 18:52 a beautiful story of the relationship between Jesus 18:55 and this woman who came to anoint His feet, 18:58 Mary the sister of Lazarus and Martha 19:02 one whom He had cleansed from severe sin, 19:04 cast out demons, a woman who was the kind of person 19:08 with whom you would not associate, 19:10 but through the blood of Jesus Christ 19:11 or through His forgiveness 19:13 and His love she was transformed. 19:17 As so she kissed His feet verse 39, 19:20 now when the Pharisee, which had bidden him saw it, 19:24 he spake within himself, saying, this man, 19:27 if he were a prophet, would have known who 19:30 and what manner of woman 19:31 it is that toucheth Him for she is a sinner. 19:38 I thank God that He had a reputation-- 19:42 that Jesus had a reputation for receiving sinners. 19:44 Don't you? 19:46 Because if He didn't have that reputation, 19:48 I would have been in trouble. 19:51 I thank God that Jesus receives sinners even today. 19:55 This man Pharisee said, this is Simon. 19:59 If he were a prophet would have known who 20:01 and what manner of woman this is that toucheth Him 20:04 for she is a sinner. 20:07 Next verse, And Jesus answering said unto him, 20:09 Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. 20:13 And Simon said, Master, say on. 20:17 Whenever I read that verse, I smile, 20:18 Simon said Jesus you want to talk, talk. 20:22 I've somewhat to say on to thee. 20:24 There was a certain creditor, which had two debtors. 20:27 The one owed him 500 pence and the other 50. 20:30 And when they had nothing to pay, 20:31 he frankly forgave them both. 20:33 Tell me therefore, 20:34 which of them will love him most? 20:37 Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, 20:39 to whom he forgave most. 20:40 And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged. 20:43 You see, what Jesus is saying, the more you are forgiven, 20:48 finish it for me, the more you love. 20:52 So one has owed 500 pence, 20:54 one has owed 50 pence both are forgiven. 20:56 Jesus is teaching that it is natural to expect 20:59 that the man forgiven for the debt of 500 pence 21:02 would love Jesus more 21:04 than he who was forgiven for just 50 pence. 21:10 And he turned to the woman, verse 44, of Luke 7, 21:14 and said unto Simon. 21:17 Now this is the same woman who was at the tomb, 21:19 who prepared spices and ointments 21:20 and went back home. 21:22 Seest thou this woman? 21:25 I entered into thy house, 21:28 thou gavest me no water for my feet. 21:31 But she hath washed my feet with tears, 21:32 and dried them--wiped them with the hairs of her head. 21:35 Thou gavest me no kiss, but this woman 21:37 since the time I came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet. 21:41 My head with oil thou didst not anoint, 21:43 but she hath anointed my feet with ointment. 21:45 Wherefore I say unto thee, verse 47, her sins, 21:48 which are many, are forgiven for she loved how much? Much. 21:55 But to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. 21:58 This woman loved Jesus not this much. 22:04 Not this much, she loved Jesus this much. 22:14 How much do you love Jesus? 22:15 Show me, come on show me, show me, show me. 22:19 Don't hit anyone. 22:20 Don't knock anyone's glasses off. 22:21 How much do you love Gees? This much? 22:23 Do you wish your hands were longer? Yes. 22:26 Love Jesus this much or someone did. 22:31 Got to be careful with your fingers there. 22:32 This is love 22:36 and Jesus said, but to whom little is forgiven, 22:39 the same person loveth little. 22:40 She was forgiven much because He said in verse 47, 22:44 her sins, which are many, 22:49 and so she had an imperishable love for her Savior. 22:53 He who delivered her from sin, 22:58 go right to the Chapter 8 of the Book of Luke, verse 1. 23:04 And it came to pass afterwards, 23:05 that he went throughout every city and village preaching 23:08 and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom 23:10 and the twelve were with him, verse 2 Luke 8. 23:13 And certain women, 23:14 which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, 23:17 Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils. 23:21 She began following Jesus around. 23:25 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, 23:28 and Susanna, and many others, 23:30 which ministered unto him of their substance, 23:32 she began to follow Jesus around, 23:35 because of what Jesus had done for her she loved Him. 23:41 Isn't any wonder in John Chapter 20 reading for verse 17, 23:44 we find Jesus saying unto her, touch me not, 23:46 for I have not yet ascended to my Father. 23:48 She was first at that tomb. 23:54 Now let's go back to Friday afternoon. 23:59 Mary Magdalene did not walk away from the body of Christ 24:01 because she didn't love Him. 24:08 She returned, prepared spices and ointments 24:13 Luke 23, verse 56 and rested the Sabbath day 24:19 according to the commandment. 24:23 "Don't Do Me No Favors." 24:27 We at Seventh-day Adventist, 24:29 we're skilled in the art of creative thinking. 24:36 How to get around God's law? 24:41 And we say I see no problem with skiing on the Sabbath 24:47 because I'm out in nature or going down 24:52 to the lake for a swim 24:53 because we after all we promote the health message. 24:59 What's wrong with a little golf on the Sabbath? 25:04 And we always as I said two nights ago, 25:06 Nickel and dimming God, 25:08 what's wrong with this onto Sabbath, 25:09 this onto Sabbath. 25:10 We should view it the other way around. 25:12 What can I do to be sure? I don't offend a God I love. 25:19 He died for me. He bled for me. 25:22 He suffered for me. 25:23 Gave His life, took the risk of never seeing His father again. 25:27 Through His sacrifice, Ellen White informs us, 25:30 there was a rupture, a tearing, 25:32 a rending in the God head that will never happen again 25:36 and Jesus calls there and He did it to save me 25:40 and to save you. 25:42 Jesus didn't look for ways to get out. 25:45 Yes, He said, if it be possible, 25:47 but He was very quick to add nevertheless. 25:53 We must look for ways to honor God, 25:55 not look for ways to get around God. 25:58 The converted heart looks for ways to honor God 26:01 and to obey Him and to serve Him as an expression of love. 26:07 And so they returned and prepared spices and ointments 26:10 and left the carcass and the corpse 26:12 and I speak respectfully of Jesus Christ in that grave. 26:16 Somehow in her heart, Mary Magdalene knew 26:19 that if Jesus got up at that very moment for five seconds, 26:22 He would have said, Mary Magdalene, 26:23 what are you doing on My holy day? 26:28 Have you forgotten 26:29 I'm the one who spoken from Sinai, 26:32 go back and keep My Sabbath 26:35 and let the dead bury their dead. 26:42 Mary, don't do me no favor. 26:48 Just obey me. 26:52 Let me tell you I'm so glad, the Bible gives us information 26:56 of how much this woman loved Jesus. 27:00 Because it must be clear to you and to me by now 27:03 that walking away from the body of Christ was an act of love. 27:11 The highest expression of love to God is to do what He says. 27:19 Now I realize we've difficulty blending love with obedience. 27:26 There's something about obedience 27:27 to our carnal nature that is anti love, 27:30 but until someone can give me some other explanation 27:33 for John 12:15, if you love me John 14:15, 27:37 if you love Me, finish it-- 27:39 Keep My commandments. Who said that? 27:42 Jesus. To whom? 27:44 Us. Us. 27:46 If you love Me, keep My commandments. 27:55 Holiness is a life of obedience. 28:01 It is no wonder that God the Father honored Mary Magdalene 28:04 by allowing her to be the first human being to see Jesus 28:07 when He came out of that grave 28:09 because she had been made a holy woman 28:13 with an obedient heart. 28:17 And I'm saying to you and to me a truly converted person 28:21 finds his or her greatest delight 28:23 in obeying the will of the Father. 28:31 What excuse do you have for not obeying God? 28:39 Do you or do I find ourselves trying to create excuses 28:44 to get around God's requirements. 28:49 Do we find ourselves arguing obedience against love, 28:55 forgetting that the commandments are these love to God 28:59 and love to your fellowmen? 29:04 We're living in the end of time. 29:07 How many of you believe that? Quickly. 29:09 We really are. 29:11 Now I realize we say that all the time 29:15 and we ought to keep saying it. 29:18 Because it was said in the days of Paul that's 2,000 years ago. 29:22 You don't have to be a Christian to realize 29:24 and conclude if it was close in his day 29:26 it is frighteningly close today. 29:30 It is unsettlingly close today. 29:33 Now what I propose to you is if you believe 29:38 that the coming of Christ is near 29:40 and Christ isn't coming to save, 29:41 He's coming to execute judgment. 29:43 He's coming to take the sin out of this world. 29:46 One thousand years in heaven with Him, 29:47 He comes back and He gives to the lost 29:48 what they fully deserve. 29:50 If we believe He's coming soon, our lives must change. 29:57 Our priorities must change. 30:00 We must develop and cultivate the mindset of Mary Magdalene. 30:06 There's no circumstance. There's no pretext. 30:09 There's no excuse under which I will disobey God. 30:14 Not even to embalm the body of God. 30:16 That's not a good enough excuse to violate His Sabbath. 30:20 I'll leave His dead body in the ground. 30:23 Go away, obey Him, and come back. 30:32 Have you ever heard of the three Hebrew boys? 30:36 Now it would've been easy for them to kneel, 30:42 the music plays, the drums, the whatever. 30:46 Everyone is mentally dulled by the music 30:51 and they kneel, and people get up, 30:52 and go on home, they go home 30:53 they say Lord, I'm sorry. 30:57 Case closed. 31:01 But with God, have they gotten any glory by their kneeling? 31:04 No. 31:07 Daniel, as I told you last night or the night before, 31:09 could've prayed with his window closed. 31:11 He could've avoided the controversy. 31:15 But he didn't do that. 31:17 He prayed as he had always prayed 31:20 and risked the jaws of half-starved lions. 31:27 All I'm promoting this evening is that we, 31:31 in this conference, must make up our minds. 31:37 And the most important thing in life to me is to please God. 31:43 Not your spouse, not your children, God. 31:50 And we will discover that when we please God first, 31:54 we may end up pleasing other people more 31:57 than we would had we tried to put the people first. 32:01 God requires first place in our life, 32:05 thou shall have no other gods before me. 32:13 And there is no set of circumstances 32:15 that can be accepted as justification 32:18 for violating the smallest requirement of God. 32:21 Now am I a legalist? No. 32:25 I'm talking, I believe, to people who are already saved. 32:30 Am I right? Am I right? Yes. 32:34 Now, how does a saved person live? 32:37 What have you been saved from? What is sin? 32:43 Then when you're saved from sin, 32:44 what are you saved from? 32:46 Transgression of the law 32:48 and you're saved to observance of the law. 32:53 Let me say it again some of you missed it. 32:57 Christ through His death resurrection saves us 33:00 from disobedience and saves us into obedience. 33:06 Does not the Bible say, by the disobedience of one, 33:10 many were made sinners, 33:12 even so by the obedience of one. 33:19 But that obedience has to come from the heart. 33:24 No Pharisees will be in heaven. 33:28 No hypocrites in heaven. No legalists in heaven. 33:33 Only those who appreciate the sacrifice of Christ so much 33:38 that their obedience to Him is considered by them 33:41 a small expression of thanks. 33:45 And we wish we could do more to express our thanks. 33:49 You see when you're saved by Jesus 33:51 and you recognize it, 33:52 the principle of reciprocity begins 33:55 to move in your breast. 33:57 What is the principle of reciprocity? 34:01 Let me tell you what it is. 34:03 I've told the story number of times. 34:05 You may have heard it before. Well, hear it again. 34:09 Several years ago, I was driving from 34:11 the University of Michigan Medical School 34:12 where I was working at the time. 34:13 It was winter. It was a Wednesday. 34:15 I was on my way to prayer meeting. 34:17 Now like all good levites, 34:18 you don't distract a Seventh-day Adventist 34:21 on his way to prayer meeting. 34:23 You just don't do that. 34:25 If you're wounded on the side of the road, 34:26 pick another day to be wounded not on a Wednesday. 34:30 So I was driving and this traffic was slow, 34:32 and snow all over the place, it's cold, 34:34 and I'm thanking God for a car with heat. 34:38 And I look to my left, there's a man in the snow bank 34:41 and he's on the road. 34:43 His car is in the ditch. 34:45 He doesn't really have a thick coat. 34:48 And I said, well, he would die and I kept driving. 34:53 Let me tell you something, 34:56 the Spirit of God spoke to me immediately, 34:59 almost like a slap. 35:03 Turn around, you hypocrite, in a suit, 35:06 turn around! 35:09 I made a U turn on an icy road. 35:15 There's no need for a spirit to slap you twice. 35:17 You may not recover from the second slap. 35:19 So when He slaps you once, just obey. 35:22 Come on say, amen. Amen. 35:23 I made an illegal U turn. 35:27 I'm glad the Ten Commandments don't say, 35:28 "Thou shall not make a U turn." 35:29 I made that U turn and I went back. 35:33 I'm talking about the law of reciprocity 35:35 and I got out I was cold too. 35:39 And I said to the man, what's wrong? 35:40 And I got up to him and I smelled 35:42 the reality of his drunken condition. 35:45 I said, oh, Lord, 35:46 that's all I need a drunk man in winter 35:48 on the side of the road. 35:50 He said a truck hit me, knocked me in the ditch, 35:52 and the guy just kept going. 35:55 I said, all right, here's what we'll do. 35:57 Get into my car. 35:58 And I'll drive you to a gas station 36:00 to get a wrecker and come back. 36:03 And for those of you who don't know what a wrecker is, 36:05 it's a vehicle that pulls cars out of ditches 36:09 if you're listening in Norway. 36:12 And so he got into my car and he's cursing, 36:16 using foul language, not being mean, 36:18 but that's the way he talks. 36:20 He's cursing, wants to smoke, I said, please no, 36:23 help you and me, don't smoke. 36:25 And he's drunk, but I'm taking this man to a gas station. 36:28 We got to the gas station. I explained the situation. 36:30 The wrecker guy said follow me-- 36:32 or I'll follow you so I started back to this place 36:36 of catastrophe and the wrecker was following me. 36:38 We got there. 36:39 The wrecker jumped out, did his thing, 36:41 pulled he car out of the ditch. 36:44 The wrecker did up his bill and gave it to, 36:47 he said who gets this? 36:48 I said he gets it. 36:49 So the man said, I don't have any money. 36:55 I wish you told me that before. 36:58 That would really have tested my Christianity. 37:00 He said, I don't have any money. 37:05 So I said okay. 37:07 I reached into my pocket took care of that, 37:11 gave the money to the wrecker man 37:13 or the man in the in. 37:15 And the wrecker went on his way. 37:18 And the man was so grateful. 37:20 He hugged me at the side of the road 37:23 and won't let me go. 37:27 I don't know what to do. 37:28 Here's this man in public hugging me 37:29 and won't let me go. 37:31 So I answered its okay, its okay, 37:33 you don't need to hug me this long. 37:34 It's okay. 37:37 So he said to me, here's my telephone number call me. 37:40 We're talking about the law of reciprocity. 37:42 So I said okay. I called him a few weeks later. 37:44 He said come visit me. I went. 37:48 I walked into the man's house smelling of smoke. 37:51 And as I sat down, we exchanged a few pleasantries. 37:53 He took a Bible from off some shelf somewhere. 37:56 This actually happened. He handed me the Bible. 37:59 We're talking about the law of reciprocity. 38:01 He handed me the Bible and he said 38:03 what do you want me to do? 38:10 Well, I took a deep breath that allows you 38:14 to take time to recover you see, 38:15 you take a deep breath. 38:17 Look like you're under control and I said, 38:19 I want you to do precisely nothing. 38:22 He said no, no, no, no, no, no, no. 38:25 What do you want me to do? 38:28 And I said after a second deep breath, 38:30 I want you to do nothing, he said mm-hmm. 38:35 You tell me what to do and I'll do it. 38:40 So I said we'll read chapter this chapter 38:41 that and pray and. 38:43 He said okay. Never saw him again. 38:47 Why did he insist tell me what to do? 38:52 What was he experiencing? 38:55 Gratitude and the force of gratitude drove him 39:00 to offer himself to me. 39:03 What I'm saying is when we realize 39:05 that Jesus Christ has pulled us by His shed blood 39:08 from the ditch of sin and death, 39:11 we from our honest hearts will say Lord, 39:14 what will thou have me to do? 39:20 That's reciprocity. 39:22 You saved me, I want to show You 39:25 how grateful I'm, here is my life. 39:29 Anything You say, I'll do. 39:33 Anything You ask, I'll respond. 39:35 Anywhere You send, I will go as an expression 39:40 of an eternal gratitude for a sacrifice whose benefits 39:44 I shall enjoy eternally. 39:48 Mary Magdalene grateful for deliverance from sin, 39:53 she looked at the body of her Savior. 39:57 She looked at God's commandments, 39:59 and she knew in her heart that her dead Savior 40:04 would want her to leave His body and obey His commandment. 40:13 And so Jesus says to you and to me tonight, 40:15 "Don't Do Me No Favors, just do what I say. 40:19 Just obey me." 40:21 Holiness is a life of loving obedience to God. 40:27 And I stress loving obedience 40:30 because we are so thankful that we've been saved. 40:35 It could be that many of us really 40:38 we have not yet been converted. 40:41 We have been improved. 40:45 And an improved person does not understand 40:49 what Jesus did. 40:50 As a matter of fact, 40:51 you don't need Jesus to experience improvement. 40:55 I have a friend who used to drink. 40:59 Now he's a Christian. 41:00 And I'm giving example of some things 41:02 people can do for themselves. 41:03 He used to drink until one day he got sick 41:05 and tired of drinking and he said, 41:06 "I'm tired of this." 41:07 And he just stopped. He just stopped. 41:12 There're many people who stopped lifelong habits 41:15 because they were finally sick and tired, 41:17 didn't really cry or pray. 41:19 They aren't Christians. They just stopped. 41:22 That is not conversion. 41:25 There're many people who're tired of 41:26 a life of being crass and uncouth. 41:30 And they've decided to become more smooth, 41:32 and urbane, and polite, and courteous, and sociable. 41:38 That's not conversion. 41:41 There are some people who hear the gospel 41:43 and they listen very carefully and it makes sense to them. 41:47 It is logical, okay. 41:48 I connect this point to that point, 41:50 to that point I cannot produce a competing argument. 41:54 So because I'm a decent person and I see your logic, 41:57 I will go with your logic. That's not conversion. 42:01 You're convinced. You're not converted. 42:04 Let me tell you about conversion. 42:06 And then I'm done. 42:08 I was conducting a crusade in Uganda 42:10 in the summer of 2000 in a town called Masaka. 42:15 And the second night, I believe, 42:18 of that first week, a young man came to the crusade 42:22 and after I was finished preaching, 42:23 someone came to me and said Elder Skeete, 42:25 there's a young man who wants to talk to you. 42:26 So I stepped off the stage and went to the back. 42:29 It was a structure that had been built of little tree limbs 42:33 and I went back and here was this nice looking young fellow. 42:36 He said, "I need to talk to you." 42:37 " I said, "Fine." 42:39 "I just got out of prison and I've lived the life. 42:44 I'm sick of a life of crime." 42:46 And I'm trying to paraphrase what he said. 42:48 Apparently, he was walking somewhere 42:49 and saw a hand bell on the ground 42:52 or someone gave him one and he decided to change his course 42:55 and come to the crusade. 42:57 And whatever he heard convicted him immediately so he came. 42:59 He said, "I'm tired of a life of sin, 43:02 a life of being in prison. 43:03 And I want my life to change." 43:04 I said, "Okay, let's pray." 43:06 And I want you to come every night to the crusade. 43:07 He said, "Okay." 43:09 We prayed, led him in a prayer of confession, repentance. 43:12 He left, he kept coming almost every night. 43:14 He'd come back to the tent, I'd pray for Him. 43:16 Then he said to me, he said, he said, 43:18 "Pastor, I want to confess something to you. 43:21 I stole a man's bicycle. " I said, "All right." 43:25 He said, "And I want to give it back. 43:27 But I don't know where he is." 43:30 I said, "Well, you keep praying 43:31 and the Lord understands 43:33 it's in your heart to give it back. 43:34 The Lord won't hold you guilty, 43:35 if you've confessed because you can't find the man. 43:37 So you keep praying for the man 43:38 that he's not too inconvenienced by the loss of his vehicle 43:41 and you continue serving God." 43:43 The crusade was over, I left Uganda. 43:45 I went back the next year for another crusade, 43:48 two crusades in 2001. 43:50 And between the two crusades, 43:51 I took sometime to go visit the folk 43:53 who were baptized at that crusade the year before. 43:55 He was there. 43:58 I'm talking about conversion and conviction. 44:02 He said, "Pastor, I want to tell you something." 44:05 I knew exactly what he was about to say. 44:09 But never steal a person's thunder. 44:10 So I acted as if I didn't know. 44:12 I said, "What is it?" 44:14 He said, "I found that man. I apologized to him. 44:20 Gave him back what was his." 44:22 He said, "Pastor, I feel free." 44:26 And really that's a converted man. 44:30 That's convicted. 44:31 Now he can't explain 2300 day prophecy. 44:36 He can't explain the similarity 44:38 between the Angel of Revelation 10 44:40 and the Angel of Revelation 14:6. 44:41 He can't do it yet. 44:43 But he knew, he needs to make wrong things right. 44:46 That's conversion. That's conviction. 44:49 I'm saying it could be some of us have been improved 44:53 but not convicted or converted. 44:57 A converted person is uncomfortable with that, 45:01 which makes Christ unhappy. 45:05 And so forget all the favors you 45:06 and I want to do for Jesus. 45:09 Let's stop breaking His heart. 45:12 Let us seek holiness without which, 45:17 no man can see God, no man. 45:21 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, 45:23 let us cleanse ourselves of all filthiness 45:25 of the flesh and spirit, 45:26 perfecting Holiness in the fear of God. 45:33 Can you do it of your own power? Absolutely not. 45:36 Holiness is a quality of God 45:39 and it comes from God to us who trust Him 45:41 and serve Him by faith. 45:44 the Bible says, 45:46 For they verily for a few days chastened us 45:49 after their pleasure, but he for our profit, 45:51 that we might be partakers of his what? Holiness. 45:57 Holiness is a life of conformity to God's expressed will. 46:07 How many of you want to please Jesus? 46:09 Can I see your hands? 46:10 You want to plea-- and be serious please. 46:12 You want to please Jesus, can I see your hands? 46:15 Would you stand, follow your hands to your feet, please. 46:19 You want to please Jesus Christ, your Savior, 46:27 sharing in His holiness. 46:32 You don't have that road of Holiness. 46:33 There's no admission to the pearly gates. 46:39 And you're standing to say, 46:41 "Father in heaven I want my life to please Jesus Christ." 46:46 Now let me say something that may sound cold, 46:48 if you stood because you don't want to stand out 46:51 but you didn't mean it, you ought to sit down. 46:59 You really ought to sit down if you didn't mean it. 47:02 But if you meant it, you stay on your feet. 47:06 This is our last meeting together. 47:09 But it's not the last time you'll be blessed. 47:10 This is the last our meeting together. 47:12 And the Lord will bring someone else 47:14 to add to what've you heard. 47:18 But you don't know if you'll be here tomorrow. 47:22 None of us has a receipt for a long life. 47:26 None of us has it. 47:28 The health message doesn't guarantee a long life. 47:31 It guarantees a healthy life for as long as you live. 47:33 All the soy milk in the world can't keep you 47:35 from getting hit by a bus. 47:40 But it allows us to live healthy life 47:42 so for the duration of our lives we are useful to God 100%. 47:46 What I'm saying is you don't know 47:48 if you'll be here tomorrow night. 47:49 And I'm not trying to scare anyone 47:51 because I don't know if I'll be here tomorrow night either. 47:55 Jesus said, "Today." 47:59 If you will hear his voice, "Harden not your heart." 48:06 I'll ask you an unusual question I usually ask. 48:10 Is there someone here who has been fighting 48:12 the conviction of the Holy Spirit this week 48:14 and you're hardening your heart? 48:16 If there's someone like that, 48:17 you've been hardening your heart, 48:19 raise your hand. 48:20 You've been hardening your heart. 48:21 Come, come. 48:23 You've been hardening your heart, raise your hand. 48:26 Come, my good brother. 48:27 Someone greet him as he comes, please. Come. 48:30 If you've raised your hand, come. 48:31 There's a vast audience, I can't see everyone. 48:33 You know you've been hardening your heart. 48:35 Come right upstairs, come right, come right, 48:37 This way with us, please. God bless you. 48:38 You know you've been hardening your heart, 48:40 raise your hand and come. 48:43 In every congregation, there're people who fight 48:45 and they say, "I will not go long. 48:47 I will not obey. I will not do it. 48:48 I will not let the Spirit soften my heart." 48:50 If you know you've been doing that 48:52 come with your hard heart, bring it. Come. 48:57 Raise that hand and bring that hard heart? 48:59 Jesus will soften it tonight. 49:02 God bless you, my good brother. 49:03 God bless you. Come, come. 49:05 Bring your hard heart, come, come. 49:09 I'm just calling the hard hearted. 49:11 Fighting Jesus, fighting the conviction. You come. 49:16 If you're trialed and your heart has moved, 49:18 tell your parents, mother I need to go 49:21 and respond to this call. 49:22 I'm calling the hard of heart. 49:25 But who are clearly honest in heart. 49:28 Come, let Jesus soften the heart right now. 49:31 He is the only one who can. 49:33 Anyone else, you've been hardening your hearts 49:36 because you're not yet ready to give it all to Christ. 49:39 Bring that hard heart. 49:40 Let Jesus do what He does best. Anyone else? Come. 49:47 I won't hold you long. 49:50 Come, bring your hard heart and come. 49:53 Jesus knows how to soften hard hearts. 49:55 He really does. 49:56 Anyone else I believe there're others. 49:58 I believe that. 50:00 Few people want to show publicly their hearts were hard 50:02 but that's the first step to a soft heart. 50:04 God bless, this man. Who else? 50:11 Maybe right now you're hardening your heart 50:12 against this call, come. 50:16 Be impetuous, be a reckless, and you step out and come. 50:19 Bring that heart to Christ. 50:23 I'm just calling for heard hearts. 50:27 Am I to believe all the hard hearts are here? 50:32 Anyone else? 50:35 The rest of you should be praying 50:36 that God will soften hearts, please. 50:40 Come, my good brother, come. 50:43 Bring the hard hearts to Christ. 50:44 Come my sister, come. 50:46 Bring that hard heart and give it to Jesus Christ. 50:51 He's happy to take it. 50:53 Come right up, my good brother, come right up, right up. 50:55 God bless you. Someone help him out, please. 50:57 Don't let him walk alone. Bring the hard heart. 51:02 And I pray Father in Heaven, 51:03 give strength to my brothers and sisters on their feet. 51:05 Give them strength. 51:06 Please on their feet, please. Come, sister. 51:10 God bless you. 51:12 Will the other hard hearts, please come? 51:16 Just leave the seat and come. 51:21 Who else has a hard heart? 51:23 Come, don't let anyone stop you. 51:24 Take your hand out of your spouse's hand and come. 51:27 Selfishness one on one with Jesus Christ. 51:29 You come. 51:30 Bring that hard resisting heart and come. 51:39 Come, sister. If you're coming, come. 51:42 Come, come, come right around. 51:44 Someone go greet her, please. 51:47 Jesus shed His blood for her, she's precious. 51:49 Bring the hard hearts. 51:52 And I pray God give you strength as you stand, 51:54 give you strength as you stand. 51:55 Sister, God bless you. You're fighting God. 51:59 And you're fighting Him with gloves on. 52:02 And yet He loves you. Bring that hard heart. 52:05 Not to me, to Jesus. Bring it. 52:10 The rest of the hard hearts, please come quickly so we-- 52:12 I can move to the next appeal. 52:13 Please come. 52:15 And I don't mind begging you this is life and death. Come. 52:18 The sooner you give the hard heart to Jesus, 52:20 the less likely you are to remain hard 52:21 for the rest of your life. 52:22 Who else will come, bring that hard heart. 52:24 I'm only calling the hard of heart. 52:28 But I'll tell you what the fact that they came tells me, 52:31 there're a soft area in that hard heart. 52:34 Come on and say amen. 52:35 And Jesus just wants that. He can work on it. 52:38 That's all He needs, one little soft area in the hard heart. 52:43 A hard heart can be an honest heart too. 52:44 Come, anyone else? Anyone else? 52:50 Last night, I made an appeal to baptism, 52:52 some people came forward. 52:54 If you're here, just raise your hands. 52:56 Those who came forward for baptism last night, 52:57 raise your hands. 52:59 I want you to slip out and come right this side. 53:01 Come quickly, come this side. 53:04 You came last night, come this side. 53:07 Jesus has a way of calling people twice 53:08 Moses, Moses, Abraham, Abraham, Simon, Simon, Martha, Martha. 53:12 He's calling you twice, come right here. 53:16 Come right here. 53:19 Joseph told Pharaoh that a vision was doubled to him 53:22 that a thing may be established of the Lord twice. 53:24 Come right here or anyone who wants to make the decision 53:27 for baptism for the first time tonight, you come. 53:31 You weren't here last night or you didn't make the decision, 53:32 you want to make it tonight, slip out and come. 53:35 We're having a baptism on Sabbath. 53:38 The happiest times in the life of a Christian, you come. 53:42 Spoke to a little girl last night in the office. 53:44 She wants to be baptized and she told her mother. 53:46 The mother brought her to me. 53:47 I said, "Why do you want to be baptized?" 53:49 She said, "I want to be like Jesus." 53:51 Can you say amen? Amen. 53:53 Come, I want to be baptized. 53:56 Who else would make that decision, you come. 54:00 If you're not baptized at Sabbath, 54:02 we can set you up for additional studies. 54:03 You can be baptized sometime in the future. 54:05 But come, make the decision and come. 54:08 Now let me close this appeal and let you go. 54:12 Anyone else? 54:13 I want to be baptized because Jesus asks me, 54:18 the one who died for me. 54:19 God bless my sister who's coming. 54:21 Someone go and shake her hand please, please. 54:24 Okay, someone did it at the bottom of that ramp. 54:27 Okay, anyone else? Anyone else? 54:29 I want to be baptized because Jesus wants me. 54:35 The man who pulled me from that snow bank of sin. 54:39 I will do whatever he says. 54:42 Is there anyone else? 54:46 Let me ask an unusual question 54:48 for a camp meeting of Seventh-day Adventist. 54:50 Is there someone listening to me tonight 54:53 who has never surrendered their life to Jesus? 54:58 Let me see your hand. You really never have. 55:01 You've never really surrendered your life to Jesus. 55:03 Can I see your hand, anyone? 55:09 If you see a hand and I don't see it point it out to me. 55:12 Sister, come, come, come. Don't be impatient. 55:16 The Lord will strengthen you. 55:17 If you need to sit for physical reasons, 55:19 do that without disturbing anyone. 55:21 But come. 55:23 Never really surrendered their life to Christ, you come. 55:25 I want her right next to me. 55:27 Bring her right next to me. 55:29 Anyone else, you've never really surrendered your life, come. 55:36 This is very serious. Please pray in your hearts. 55:38 Please pray in your hearts. Bring that sister. 55:45 Is there anyone here who is not a Seventh-day Adventist? 55:48 You're visiting, let me see your hand. 55:51 You're just visiting. God bless you. 55:53 You're visiting. 55:58 Are there spouses here 56:00 who are married to Seventh-day Adventists 56:02 but you're not a Seventh-day Adventist 56:03 and you want to say, Lord, I want to study some more. 56:06 I have a good heart. 56:07 Open the way for me to accept 56:09 what my spouse has been following all these years. 56:11 Let me see your hand. 56:13 Your spouse is an Adventist, you're not. 56:15 But you're open to additional study. 56:17 Can I see your hand if you are here? Okay. 56:23 I thank God for those who've come. 56:26 Can you say amen? Amen. 56:29 Now I want to pray for my sister first. 56:34 I'll lead you in a prayer of confession 56:37 and total acceptance of Christ. 56:40 I want you to pray in your hearts. 56:42 Do you give me permission to pray to God for you? 56:44 Yes. Good. 56:46 Do you all agree I must pray for her? 56:48 Yes. All right, every head bowed. 56:50 Every eye closed. 56:51 My sister, come close to the mike. 56:52 I want you to say after me. Dear Father in Heaven, 56:55 Dear Father in Heaven, 56:56 I come to you tonight, I come to you tonight, 56:59 To give my heart to you. To give my heart to you. 57:01 I am a sinner.

As payment for my sins. 57:22 I accept His resurrected life, I accept His resurrected life, 57:25 As the power to live victoriously. 57:27 As the power to live victoriously. 57:29 Father, I'm all yours tonight. Father, I'm all yours tonight. 57:32 Fill me with your spirit, Fill me with your spirit, 57:34 That I may live for you day by day. 57:36 That I may live for you day by day. 57:37 Bless my family.

Yes. 57:52 Okay, sister Angie, you step right here. 57:54 Those with the hard hearts come please, 57:56 come, come, please. 57:58 Be patient with Jesus, please. 57:59 Come. God bless you. 58:02 You don't know how happy I am to see you. 58:04 You really don't. 58:06 Now I don't want to be skinning and grinning 58:07 to the pulpit, but you need to understand 58:08 how happy I am 58:10 because few people could respond to a call like that. 58:14 How many of you will like Jesus to soften your heart tonight? 58:16 Raise your hands. God bless you. 58:19 How many of you believe 58:20 He can soften it in the moment in the twinkling of an eye? 58:23 That's what He's about to do. 58:24 Bow your heads. 58:25 I want each of you to touch someone. 58:27 Link her hand. 58:28 Everyone touch someone, link hands, link hands. 58:31 Each one of you who came forward link hands. 58:34 I like all the ministers to come and surround us please. 58:36 Come and surround us all those who're here. 58:38 Any minister in the congregation. 58:39 Any audient elder come please. Please come. 58:42 Any other minister here, come, please. 58:46 Please come. I want everyone praying. 58:50 This is not a spectator sport. All ministers come. 58:53 Surround God's people. 58:55 The softening process has already begun. 58:56 They don't know of that. Come. |
