He is able to save unto the uttermost (Quality: Average)

[0:00] As the Lord helps me this evening hour, I would like to direct your attention to some thoughts found in the book of Hebrews, chapter 7 and verse 25.

[0:12] That's Hebrews 7 and verse 25. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seen he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

[0:30] Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seen he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

[0:45] I realize when I come to the book of Hebrews, friends, I make some certain statements again and again. And the one that I would like to make before I even begin to try to speak from my text is that when we look upon to the book of Hebrews and when we read it, I believe we can sum the whole of the book of Hebrews in this particular statement, Jesus only.

[1:08] For we find that Paul writing to the book of Hebrews wanted, as it were, to turn to these Hebrews away from their bondage and away from all the traditions of men.

[1:22] And also from the law so that they might see more and more of that sufficiency which is to be found in Christ. I realize you can imagine when we ought to appreciate, friends, how these Jews were steeped in all that of Moses wrote to them by the commandments of God as far as the sacrifices.

[1:46] And you can imagine how they highly valued that temple, which at one time, friends, was given indication of the very presence of God.

[2:01] And how that the Jews were commanded by God again and again that on three times through the year they were commanded to come to the temple and there to observe the feast. But remember, friends, also, that all these types and figures and all these feasts which were given to them of old were pointing to them of something yet which was better to come.

[2:26] And yet when that better did come, friends, they could not quite wholly see it. They still wanted to cling to the Levitical order in some measure. And so, as it were, Paul began to realize that these Hebrews were missing something.

[2:46] That in their own soul they were not entering into that blessed gospel rest like they ought to. Therefore, he wrote to the book of Hebrews as a way of instruction and a way of exhortation.

[2:57] That they would see that all the types and figures and all the sacrifices had been fulfilled in the Lord Jesus Christ.

[3:10] That the Lord Jesus in all of his glorious fulfillment far exceeded the visitation of angels. When beyond all the glory that Moses had seen or had done.

[3:22] And how that Christ by his gracious office of high priest far exceeded the Levitical order to the high priest. And how that all the law and all the types and fulfilled in the person of the Lord Jesus.

[3:38] And therefore, on the behalf of them. And so, friends, I believe, though we may not be like these Hebrews trying to go back to sacrifices.

[3:50] And sticking, as it were, as it were, to some material temple. Yet, friends, I cannot help but believe of all God's people. If you have a right sight to self, know how legalistic we are sometimes.

[4:04] Not that we wanted, as it were, to live loosely. No. Remember, friends, when the gospel comes, it never permits a soul to live loosely. But, friends, under the power and influence of that precious gospel.

[4:20] When led to the Lord Jesus Christ to see him in the fulfillment for us. And how that we can see him, the savior of our sin. Ah, friend, that will make us walk humbly and sincerely before our God, won't it?

[4:36] So, throughout the whole of the book of Hebrews, friends, there is but one theme. And that is the exaltation of Christ. This afternoon, when thinking about the exaltation of Christ, my mind there went.

[4:51] There also to that time when the Lord Jesus said, If I am lifted up, I will draw all men unto me. That means all kinds. Oh, I could not help but believe and pray that the Lord might enable me to exalt the Lord Jesus.

[5:08] And then to cast myself upon that precious promise of which he says, And I will draw all men unto me. I realize in the lifting up of Christ in the ministry, And the lifting up of him upon the cross, Certainly had a blessed drawing effect, doesn't it?

[5:26] To those who know something of themselves as lost and undone sinners. And so we find this word used throughout the book of the whole of the Hebrews, And that is better.

[5:39] A better covenant. A better sacrifice. A better name. Yes, we can come into this one thought, a better person.

[5:49] Oh, let us know what a mercy again and again to come to this place and to know There is salvation in no other name than in the name of Jesus.

[6:04] Oh, when I thought also of that one part of one of the hymns, What comfort can a Savior give to those who have never felt their woe?

[6:14] Now in our text we find something again of the exaltation and the glory and the greatness of the Lord Jesus Christ. I do remember on one occasion trying to speak from verse 24.

[6:32] And if I remember rightly, friends, I remember I couldn't seem to get any farther about this expression, But this man. And sometimes I think we could only say, But this man and sit down and concentrate upon that which is thought in that expression.

[6:49] But yet, friends, we must go on. Now as we look upon verse 24, we see, Wherefore he is able also to, our text, 25, Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost.

[7:04] That come unto God by him, seen he ever liveth to make intercession for them. Now what is the suitability of this text?

[7:17] Friends, it is to those who know something of themselves as lost and undone sinners in the sight of God. For we read in our words of our text that he saves them.

[7:28] That that salvation is that of which is described in our text as the uttermost. So we find then, friends, it is for sinners.

[7:42] Ah, who are these people that need to be saved? I realize in one respect every man ought to be saved. And yet, friends, we realize there are very few people today Who are brought to realize something of their lost and undone state before God.

[7:57] But what a mercy if I begin to describe what these persons are, That the Lord might open up your eyes. And that you might have a right sense of how you stand before the Lord.

[8:12] Ah, friends, we are lost and undone sinners in the sight of God. In other words, if they are to be saved, as I've already said, then they're lost.

[8:24] Now to what extent are they lost? If they are to be saved unto the uttermost, and we hope to come to that word a little later, It tells me, friends, that they are totally depraved and undone, without any hope.

[8:41] They are like a man, as it were, out into the sea, Without any land in sight, With absolutely hopelessness. But even worse than a man out in the middle of the sea, Without any land or sight, or any hope of insight, We are guilty of it.

[9:01] Oh, what a mercy when we are brought to realize, I am a guilty sinner. And my lost and undone state in the sight of God Is brought about by my own guilt, by my own sin.

[9:12] And therefore, I am unjustly lost. And therefore, if the Lord would cast me and leave me to myself, To sink into the sea of my sin, And sink into the sea of God's wrath and indignation against me, All I can say that the Lord is just in doing so.

[9:32] Recently, a person sent me an account Of a minister that's just going out into the ministry in England. And the man certainly went through a very deep law work.

[9:48] And how he was brought there, and he cried to the Lord, And he says, Lord, if you send me to hell, I'm going to praise you. He says, I'm going to tell you you're just in doing so, That I'm going to say you're the greatest savior there ever was.

[10:00] He felt himself to be lost and undone, And such will everyone be brought, In order to see the suitability of the savior. But nevertheless, friends, there we are.

[10:15] But if you think, friend, you're going to hell, And intend to praise him in hell, you won't do it. No, you won't. You're not going to praise him there.

[10:27] I thought if I go to hell, Lord, you say, I'm going to say you're just, but I want to praise you, But we won't. Oh, friend, we can't describe the pit horrible enough. Say to him, young and old among us, That you might never go there.

[10:48] Because, friend, it is no place where you will ever praise God. There you'll see a sense of your own sin, Your own fault. There you'll see your own guilt.

[11:00] You will realize you have brought yourself there, And now without hope. And there you'll be with all your wretched friends, Mocking and condemning one another, And accusing one another.

[11:13] Oh, friend, my words can never describe the wretchedness, And the vileness, And the hideous place of the state, Which is called hell. So we find, then, They are for this salvation, Is for hell-deserving sinners.

[11:28] To those who are captive by sin. To those who are under the condemnation of God's law. To those who are without redemption.

[11:40] We find, then, in the words of our text, There is a Savior to describe before us. Let us notice something of this person, Who is described before us. I realize, when we come to this place, Wherefore he is able, The wherefore brings us back to something, Which has already been said.

[12:01] In one respect, I suppose, It brings us back to the whole of the book of Hebrews. In other words, it tells us, Because there is the imperfection on the one side, There is a salvation or perfection found on the other side.

[12:17] Because there is a weakness on the one side, There is a strength on the other side. Now the imperfection and the weakness was all found in the Levitical law.

[12:28] Because under the law and under the sacrifices by themselves, Friends, they could never save a soul. And I do love those verses, Of which are found in the eighth chapter, Of which we read, Speaking about that better covenant.

[12:45] Not the covenant of works, But a covenant of grace. And of that covenant of which the Lord says, I will write in their hearts. And oh, what a mercy, friend, If God has written in your hearts Something of that covenant of grace.

[12:59] I didn't say, Sealed it to your own heart and to your own conscience. But friend, What is it to have something of that covenant Written upon your fleshly tables of your heart?

[13:11] It is coming to this precious place To see something of the beauty of the word grace. In other words, If God saves by grace, And is unmerited favor, Then there is hope for a guilty sinner like me.

[13:25] Friend, that is the beginning of the writing. He is writing to something in your heart Of giving you a better hope, A better comfort than all that of which is done By the legal flesh, And by legalism of man.

[13:40] In other words, It is brought to seeing the imperfection of self. The imperfection of our righteousness. Brought to see the own weakness which is self.

[13:51] Oh, how we have not tried to unenow something of grace, And even if you are not without grace, Maybe you have tried, as it were, To cut yourself off from some of this world, Having a guilty conscience.

[14:04] Now I realize you can have a guilty conscience without grace, But yet, friend, If conscience speaks to you, Listen to it. Give heed to it.

[14:16] But ask that the Lord might go deeper than the conscience, But that he work right, Work in your heart, With a hard work. But nevertheless, When coming to this place, To see our utter weakness, And utter inability in self, And then brought to realize that I cannot have my own strength, Nor by my own might, Nor by my own power, I have no might against this host of sin, And this wretchedness which is within me.

[14:44] It's the fountain of all iniquity, The fountain of all sin. And there is none righteous, None righteous within me. There is no good thing. Odd is the imperfection of self, When we are brought to see the want, And the blessedness, Of this person who is found in the words of our text.

[15:04] Wherefore? I love that word. It tells me there's a contrast. On the one side, Sin, hopelessness, Condemnation, guilt.

[15:19] But on the other side, Wherefore? He is able. Oh, let us notice this little thought, Able. In this word able, And I understand, And I'm not so sure upon this word, But I know upon the word I'm coming to a little later, That it's difficult sometimes, To find a word in our English language, To really set forth, Something which the Greek word means.

[15:48] The Greek word, We know the Greek language is far extended, Than our English language, And there are some words in the Greek, Friends, That we have to find, As it were, Almost a whole sentence, To describe what it means, Or several words, Or two words.

[16:04] I'm no Greek scholar, But by reading others' writings, And some of these books, Which now are put out, To give us help on the Greek, Friends, We can sometimes find some help from it. But yet, When I look upon to this word, He is able.

[16:20] Oh, Friends, There's something in this word able, Friends, Which goes beyond, Beyond his ability, It also shows to me, His willingness. Now, It does come a bit to my mind, That it seems to me, In looking up this word, One time in the Greek, It means able, As well as willingness.

[16:41] Maybe I could use an illustration, To catch our younger friends' attention, For a few moments. You may need some assistance. And you may come to me, And say, Would you help me?

[16:54] And I may be fully able to do so, But I may not be willing. Or you may come to me, And say, Can you help me under this particular project?

[17:06] I would say to you, Friend, I could, But I can't. I don't know how. I'm not able. But I'm most willing to help you, If I could, But I'm not able. Oh, Friends, The deficiency which is found in man.

[17:20] But here's the mercy, Friend, Not in the Savior. Ah, Friend, I wish I could believe it. Sometimes I think my sins are too great, And therefore, He isn't willing.

[17:35] I sometimes think I have sinned away all grace, And therefore, He cannot be willing anymore to come and grant repentance, And grant restoration to my soul.

[17:47] But, Friends, Oh, If I could believe sometimes the things I preach about, I believe it, But I wish I could practice it more. But nevertheless, Friends, According to the scriptures, And according to what I am commanded to preach, I've got to preach a complete and able Savior.

[18:08] Therefore, Friends, We find He is able, And also willing. Oh, The ability which is found in Christ can never be exhausted. The mighty God, The mighty Savior, Who did mighty works, But all that mighty God, Who come there and withstood all the wrath of God, On Him almighty vengeance fell, That would have sunk the world to hell.

[18:34] And also the great ability in which He is able to draw sinners. Look what He did in drawing Paul of Tarsus. Look what He did in His might and power, In the drawing of Manasseh.

[18:50] Look what He did in His might and power, In drawing the thief upon the cross. Ah, He is able to save unto the uttermost all, Who come unto Him by faith.

[19:00] So we can never question the ability of His saving power. There is nothing impossible with Him to do. There is no limitation to His mercy.

[19:13] There is no limitation to His might. No limitation to His power. No limitation to His grace. Is He willing? All friend, He must needs go through Samaria.

[19:28] The very love cords of His heart, Makes Him willing to go unto the sinner. He never sent one sinner away. The vile wretch which was filled with leprosy, With a word from His mouth, Friend, He was made whole.

[19:46] Ah, One man came to him and said, Lord, If thou wilt, Thou canst. In other words, He looked upon the great ability of Christ to save, And to do what He could do, And what He could do.

[19:59] And then He wondered about the willingness, Because He's seen So much on to the doubts and fears, And unworthiness in self. But friend, May I ask you a question?

[20:12] Are you going to ever come to the end of the fact That you are never going to be able to make yourself A willing subject to Christ? You are never going to make yourself any better.

[20:24] If we carry till we are better, We shall never come at all. He is willing. Oh, That we could know more and more Of the Lord making us willing In the day of His power.

[20:37] As we hope to notice a little later In the words of our text. Wherefore, He is able Also To save Them To the uttermost That come unto Him Unto God By Him Let us notice then This word saved.

[20:59] I tried in some measure To set before you What it is to be unsaved. To be unsaved Is then under the wrath of God. It is to be lost.

[21:11] Now how does this great person then In the words of our text saved? He comes and stands in the place of a sinner. That's how He saves.

[21:24] He takes their sins and their sorrows And He makes them His very own. He saves by a perfect life. He saves by a perfect death.

[21:35] He saves by a perfect resurrection. And He saves by a glorious Ascension into glory. And He saves by a glorious intercession On the behalf of those individuals.

[21:50] Oh, the whole of His life then Is a saving purpose. We never can make too much of it then, can we? Oh, He saves by in the fullness of time God sent forth His Son Made of a woman Made under the law That He might redeem those That were under the law.

[22:10] I know He won't run under the law Experimentally. And we come to this in a little later. But He saves upon the ground Of His mercy. He saves upon the ground Of His grace.

[22:23] He saves upon the ground Of His person. He saves upon the ground Of His might And upon His power. So He saves.

[22:35] And what is included In this salvation? Ah, friend, We have no might Nor power against sin. But He puts a power Within us Which begins to fight By the implantation Of a new life A new principle within us Which cries out Against sin And knows what it is To cry out Against this burden And this mighty power Oh, friends, Our slips and our falls Often bring us to this place Lord, I have no might Against it.

[23:06] So He saves From the power of sin He saves from its pollution Or I ought to say From its penalty first By standing in its place And paying the terrible Debt of sin So that the penalty Is removed.

[23:24] It's gone. He saves by it From its pollution By washing them And cleansing them And giving them A robe of righteousness. And the fourth P Of that of which We will save He saves by it From the presence of sin.

[23:42] By eventually Taking them into glory. Free from sin. Free from this Vile corruption Which is within us.

[23:54] Oh, the glorious Savior. So we see that In the words of our text Wherefore He is able Also to save Them. And I want to come To this word of them In a little later.

[24:07] To the uttermost That come unto God By Him. We might then Speak to Speak a little bit Upon this word Uttermost. Once again, friends We come to a word In the original Greek And I don't know the word But nevertheless When we come to this word Friends I believe the translators Had quite a difficulty To find a right word To give its proper meaning.

[24:30] Out of curiosity I thought I'm going to see Just what some of these Other translations Use for the word Uttermost. Because I can believe That these carnal Believers of our day And I don't say Saved its souls But carnal So-called believers With all their Many translations Say, oh Here's an Antiquist word Here's a word We don't understand.

[24:54] And so they Put the word Complete Or they put Some other word In it To give it Some other meaning. Now friends I love the word Uttermost Because it means More than complete It means also Duration.

[25:09] Now what I'm going to Try to explain it. When the Lord Says It is a Complete salvation You remember On Wednesday night When I tried To speak from that word Ye are complete In him In other words To those Who are Converted And to those Who are These saved Individuals And I'm going To come Alone a little Later to Encourage to See if you Might be Found in This text They are Those who Are saved Completely For unto Them Christ has Become Their Righteousness Their Redemption Their Salvation So friends By the Salvation Of them They are Complete In him Not a Speck Can be Found Upon Them As I Mentioned This Morning Because we Find them They are Described as A bride Adorned for Her husband Without Without even A spot Without

[27:10] As Their Only Hope Of Salvation They Are Sinners Who Are Complete Washed Sanctified In The Eyes God The Father And Long To Know It In Their Own Soul But As I Said It Goes Beyond Their Completeness They're Found In This Word Ademone It Means Duration It Means Eternity Oh Friend What A Mercy To Find Then Yourself To Find An Eternity With God Knowing That Salvation Is Not Only For Time It Is An Eternal Righteousness Is An Eternal Sanctification It Is Eternal Redemption It Is Eternal Sacrifice It Is Eternal Peace So We Find Uttermost Is The Best Word To Describe To The Salvation I Realize Friends In One Respect We

[31:11] Unto God Do They See That The Way Is Closed By Their Own Sin They See That God Is Angry Against Them And Under The Condemnation Of A Holy And Just God But They Also See That In The Gospel There Is A Provision Made For Sinners In Through The Person Of The Lord Jesus Christ It Is Like The Publican Who Smiting Upon His Breast And When There Is A Coming Friends As I Said Again And Again There Is A Putting Our Back Upon Something An Illustration I Use Again And Again For The Sake Of Our Young Friends I Went From The Parsonage Over To The Church This Evening I Turned My Back Upon To The Parsonage Not That I Disliked It At All They Don't Mean That But I Put My Eye To The Place Where I Had To Go And Such Is The Case To Those Who Come To Christ I Know There's Slips I Know There's Falls And I Know There's A Lot Of Stumblings And
