[0:00] I realized I did fail to give the announcements as the Lord grants me some help I would like to draw your attention to some thoughts found in the prophecy of Hosea in chapter 14 I would like to read the first three verses and then more or less try to dwell as the Lord helps me upon just a short clause O Israel, return unto the Lord thy God for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity Take with you words and turn to the Lord Say unto him, take away all iniquity and receive us graciously So will we render the calves of our lives Asher shall not save us We will not ride upon horses Neither will we say any more to the work of our hands [1:02] He art our God For in thee the fatherless findeth mercy The words which more or less have been laid upon my mind is the first few of the clause which is found in verse 2 Take with you words and turn to the Lord As I said in the reading of the scriptures friends The Lord here is primarily speaking to the ten tribes of the children of Israel and certainly is not excluding the other two tribes that is Judah In here, of course, as I said, he sets before their terrible sins and the solemn judgment Especially as you look upon the last verse which is found in verse chapter 13 Where he says Samaria You remember Samaria, of course, was the capital of the ten tribes of Israel [2:05] The place which had been occupied with all those many, many wicked kings such as Ahab and so forth Samaria shall become a desolate They shall become desolate For she hath rebelled against her God They shall fall by the sword Their infant shall be dashed in pieces And the woman with child shall be ripped up Then as we come into the fourteenth chapter Friends, we see something of the compassionate nature Of long-suffering God to his backsliding Israel For we find the Lord says Oh, Israel, return unto the Lord thy God As much as to say There is yet hope Now I realize With all the judgments which is pronounced upon the land of Israel In one respect, friends There was no turning back [3:06] Of God's judgments But yet amongst all that great host of the children of Israel There was a little remnant For whom the Lord had yet a great compassion And he, as it were, bids this little remnant As much as to say Everything looks hopeless It looks as if there will be no return But yet could I bid thee To return yet unto the Lord When he speaks of them Thou hast fallen by thine iniquities Iniquities is, of course That which often speaks Of our depraved condition In other words, friends Our depraved condition Is the fountain Of all of our iniquity And all of our sin When Adam Becored his transgression Friends, we cannot say That he had iniquity [4:07] Everything that proceeded out of Adam Was to the praise And to the honor of his God But being there in a covenant of works He fell, he broke And he became a fallen creature And nothing now could fall From his heart But now depraved On unwretched thoughts And we don't have to look For our friends To see man's depravity Immediately when Adam There, as it were Sinned against his God And broke that covenant We find him immediately Resorting to his own imagination Covering himself With his fig leaf righteousness And sought to hide himself From the all-seen eye of God In the garden of Eden Talk about man's depravity That's it, isn't it? [5:03] And yet, friends What a mercy of God Has showed you something Of your own depravity But as man Covering himself With a fig leaf righteousness Even to this day Every man by nature Seeking to hide themselves From God Seeking to justify Their many actions And yet we find In the midst of all This departing The Lord in his Infinite love He had a people And he bids them As it were To return From their backslidden condition I realize, friends You may say It's to the backslider In other words To those who are already In possession of grace But I don't even know That I possess grace May I put it then These words are then Can be addressed To those that are sinners [6:04] Now it is a sad thing If you are here This morning, friend And are a sinner But have no knowledge Of it What can I say I thought to myself To one such individual Who has no Knowledge of his sin All I can say to you Is this, friend You are a sinner And a deep-died sinner And your final end Will have to be In the pit of hell And that is The right judgment Which must be Knounced upon you But, oh, friend What a mercy To be a sinner And to know it To grieve over your past To grieve over what you are And to grieve over yourself As a sinner Now, friends When he says return He says return Unto the Lord Thy God As much as to say [7:05] There is no other Place to go There is no other Way of salvation But in this God And we hope to notice A little of that As the Lord Might grant us help And then the exhortation Of our text was this Take with you words And turn to the Lord And he gives As a word A little exhortation As what they ought to say That is Take away all iniquity And receive us graciously So will we render The calves of our lips In other words, friends They long As a word To praise their maker I do feel In my thoughts, friends This is sometimes The early word One is brought To realize I am a disgrace To the maker I am ashamed To my God But yet [8:06] What a mercy To say Oh, that I could Rightly praise him That I rightly Could acknowledge him And that I could Rightly give him All the honor And the glory Realizing it Can be And can be And can only be By regenerating grace There we also notice In verse 3 He comes to the end Of all of self Where he says Asher Shall not save us The sin The general sin Of the children of Israel After this time Was seeking to rest Upon the arm Of flesh Or seeking to rest Upon some False hope While they were In this terrible state They thought Sometimes to make A compromise Of peace And they looked To the Assyrians [9:07] For some assistance As you know The sin Tides Of the children Of Israel Were actually Taken away By the Assyrians And then later By the Assyrians Further When it speaks About That they were Riding upon Horses Horses are often Referred to Egypt And when we Ride upon Horses Friends Then we Make We flee If I want To get Some place Or quickly Friend Speaking in That day I wouldn't Want to ride Upon a Mule Or upon A donkey Rather I don't Believe That it is Fast But a horse Was always Known For its Speed Without a Doubt The fastest Way of Transportation Which was Known To that Day In other Words I will Not make Haste To flee As it Were Down to Egypt And there To hope To find [10:07] Some Rescue Furthermore We see That they Could no More rest Upon the Work of Their Hands We will Say no More to The work Of our Hands Ye Art Our Gods For in The Fatherless Findeth Mercy This is Something Friends Which is Very Michael In our Souls Experience We have To come To a Total End Of all Hope And Self And Holy And Solely Casting Ourselves Upon The Mercies Of God Now When It Says Take With You Words Let Me Just Dwell As The Lord Might Grant Me Some Help To Speak What Words Might We Take Remember Friend There Is No Hopeless Case [11:07] Under The Gospel No Man Need Despair Of His Salvation It Is Still The Way Day Of Grace There Is A God To Whom We Can Call Upon To Whom We Can Go Therefore Friend We Need Not Despair So Therefore When He Says Take With Ye Words There Is A Definite Reason In Looking Upon This Let Me First Think There Is A Taking Of You Words In The Negative Way As Well As A Positive Excuse You Now Now The Positive The Negative Can Be In A Way Of Instruction And Also Can Be In A Way Of Encouragement In [12:07] Other Words Take With You Words In Other Words Not To Come Upon Any Righteousness Nor Goodness Of Our Own Not Upon Any Of Our Own Confession Not Upon Any Works Which We Have Done Not Upon The Power Of Our Blood Our Relatives Or Whatever The Case Might Be Now That Is A Good Word Of Instruction But Friends Also There Is Also Something There Which Is Also Very In Comforting How Sad And How Discouraging Would Be If It Said In The Word Of God You Must Come Upon The Works Of The Law I Realize If You Were A Pharisee When I Say A Pharisee I Mean One Without Life [13:08] Resting Upon Some Goodness Of Your Own If You Were A Pharisee You Would Say Ah That's Good I Can Come Upon The Works Of The Law I Can Come Upon Some Of The Works Of Self But If You Have Grace You Find It Is No Avail But If You Do Seek To Come Upon The Works Of Your Own You May Have A False Hope For Time But It Will Never Do For Eternity For When We Come To The Final Day Then We'll Be Like That Man Who Came With A Wedding Garment Or Without A Wedding Garment And He Was Cast Out Into Outer Darkness He Never Realized His That Of Which Was Wrong Until [14:08] We Would Say The Last So We See Then Though It Is Instructive Yet It Can Be Very Comforting For If The Lord Had Brought You To See The True Nature Of His Law And The True Nature Of Yourself As A Sinner And A Condemned Sinner By The Law You Will Immediately Readily Believe I Mean Take Comfort From The Fact That Here Is A Mercy It Is Not By The Law The Verily Nature Of That Being Taught Thus Far You Will Know What It Is To Look Into Another Rain And Where There Is That Look Which Is God And Created By God Himself It Is That Look Of Faith Which Turns You To The Object Which Is The Lord Jesus So Again [15:08] There Are Many Who Seek To Come Upon Some Type Of A Covenant Which Brings Them And Includes Them As It Were Because Of Their Fair Parents There Again Friend If God Begins To Show You Something Of Your Sin You Will Realize That Is A Flimsy Ground And Something You Can Take No Confident In If It Is By Any Good Deeds Naturally By A Good Upbringing By Being Can Kept From Many Of The Worldly Things All This Friends Will Be Stripped Away Because We Read In Our Text That All These Things Shall Not Save Us Nor The Works Of Our Hand But Here's A Mercy The Lord Says Take On To You Words What [16:09] Are These Words Then Which We Would Say Speaks Of Positive First Of All Take With You Words To The Lord In The Confession Of Your Sin I Know You Won't We Know What It Is To Be A Sinner Unless The Lord Shows You But I'm Trying To Speak To Those Who Desire Salvation What Can I Say To The Ungodly Only I Could Say To You Flee From The Wrath To Come Call Upon The Lord That He Might Convert You And Save You And Others Come With Words That Is With A Confession Of Your Sin Openly Acknowledge You As A Sinner Lost And Undone That You Neither Have Strength Nor Might Nor Power Come With Those Words That [17:09] That You May Plead His Word You Know That I Have Often Said Friend Take The Promises And Turn Them Into A Prayer I Told You That In My Early Day I Firmly Believed In My Soul That If I Would Seek The Lord I Would Find Him I Ask The Lord To Make Me A Seeker Because If He Would Make Me A Seeker Then I Would Surely Find Now That Is A Word Of Exhortation Seek He The Lord While He May Be Found And Call Ye Upon Him While He Is Near But It Can Also Be Made In A Matter Of Prayer In Other Words Teaching The Lord Saying I Know That Thou Art Near I [18:10] Realize This Is A Day Of Grace It Is A Day When Man Can Be Found That Thou Can Be Found Oh Make Me A Seeker Indeed Come Then Upon The Word Himself As I Have Said Again And Again Friends We Can Never Separate The Incarnate Word From The Written Word Now The Lord Jesus Was A Precious Gift Of The Father And The Very Purpose Of Him Coming Into This World Friend Was To Seek And To Save Lost Souls Therefore Come Upon The Ground Of What He Has Come To This World For In Other Words Come With Words Oh God Thou Didst Send Thy Dear Son Into This Wicked Wicked World To Seek And To Save [19:10] The Lost What a Comfort Friend He Didn't Come To Save The Righteous Because Those That Are Taught By The Holy Spirit Are Brought To See They Have No Righteousness To Anybody Who Can Take A Comfort Upon That Friends Than They Are That Is If The Lord Came For Righteous But Come Upon A False Foundation So We See Then Come Upon The Ground Of Him Who Is The Gift Of The Father Then Also Take With You Words The Very Words Of Which The Things That I Have Been Speaking About That He Came Into This World To Seek And To Save The Lost Come Within Take With You Words [20:10] And Turn To The Lord In Other Words Take With You Words Seeking For For For For For For For For Asking That The Lord Might Forgive You Because He Is A For For For For For God And There Is Only One Who Can Forgive Now It Is True The Scribes And The Pharisees Says Who Can Forgive Sins But God Only Now There Is The Truth But They Failed To Realize That The Lord Jesus Was God Himself Manifest In The Flesh But When The Lord Said To Those Persons Thy Sins Be For Give The The Reason It Meant Nothing To The Scribes And The Pharisees Friends Was Because They Didn't Feel Their Sin To Those Who Knew Something Of The Application Of That Word And Spoken From The Lord To Their Soul They [21:11] Knew What It Was To Rejoice They Knew What It Was To Find Peace In Their Soul And What A Wonder So Then We Say Take With You Words Seeking For For Forgiveness Take With You Words Pleading Upon The Ground Of His Pardon Now The Only Way Friend That We Can Obtain Pardon From God Is Acknowledging Our Sin I Suppose It Would Be A Very Poor Judge In The Land If Every Evidence Of Guilt Was Displayed There To A Man Standing Before The Judge And The Man Would Define And Define That He Ever Done Them The Judge Knew Very Well That The Man Had Committed The Sin And [22:14] Therefore There Would Be A Very Strange Judge Who Would Ever Turn To Such A Man And Says Well I'll Grant You A Pardon But It Is So Often In The Case Of Some Early Offender As He Comes Friends And He Makes His Confession Of His Sin Before The Judge He Bears His Heart Before Him He Hides Nothing And The Judge Might Read The Different Crimes But He Says To The Judge Those Were Only Part I Must Tell You There Were Other Things That I Have Committed Which Has Never Been Found Out Usually A Criminal Brought Face To Face With His Crimes Sometimes Will Confess That Of Which They Have Found Out But If They Would Inquire [23:14] Now Have You Any Connection With This Crime Or That Crime Oh No No I Had Nothing To Do With That But Unless They Come And Proved It Well They Says Well Yes I Admit I Did In Other Words One Who Is Ever Going To Think Of Finding Pardon Is One Who Knows What It Is To Bear His Heart His Soul His Mind His Sins Before The Eyes Of Deity I Have Told You Before And Let Me Bear It Again I Say There Is Two Reasons Why The Lord Knows That I Am A Sinner First He Knows It By Seeing My Sin I Hope I Can Say That He Knows I Am A Sinner Because I Have Sought To Confess My Sins Before Him In Other Words Take With Your Words Knowing [24:14] That He Is A Pardoning God He Is Ready To Forgive It Is Found In Him To Forgive And We Have So Many Marvelous And Wonderful Examples Of The Scriptures Of Some Of The Most Violest Of Sinners Who Did Obtain Pardon The Woman In Adultery The Woman Which Was Known To Be A Sinner Manasseh Who Had So Transgressed Against The Prophets Of The Lord Knowingly Transgressed Against His God Determined To Have His Own Way Saul Who Breathed Out Threatenings Against The Church Of God Was A Hater Of The Name Of Jesus Despised This Very Hairy Word And I Suppose As He Stood By The Death Of Stephen You [25:17] Remember He Held The Clothes Of Those Who Stoned And Then Stephen Gave That Marvelous Testimony Where He Says I See Heaven Open And When He Described That The Son Of Man Who Was Truly Jesus At The Right Hand Of God To The Father I Would Believe That Saul As Well As The Rest Of Them Put To The Fingers In Their Ears As Much As To Say I Do Not Want To Hear Such Blasphemous Words He Sought For For For For For Pardon Now Friends In What Way Can We Seek For For For For For For And What Way Can We Seek With Pardon To The Precious Blood Of The Lord Jesus Oh [26:17] Sometimes I Try To Meditate Upon The Glorious Revelation Which Was Given On To Saul When He Begins To Realize That Jesus Was The Lamb Of God He Begins To Meditate Upon That Blood Which Was There That Sinless And Holy Blood Who Did No Sin Neither Knew No Sin But Was Sent In The Fulness Of Time Of God The Father And To See The Precious Atoning Sacrifice Of Christ He Must Have Seen A Beauty In That Precious Blood And I Cannot Help But Believe He Took Words And Went To The Lord And Said The Blood Of Thy Dear Son Was Shed For Sinners And Truly Lord I Am A Sinner Can There Be [27:17] An Atonement For Me And In Due Course I Believe Paul Was Brought To See The Truth Of John John Wrote In His Epistle The Precious Blood Of The Lord Jesus Christ Cleanseth From All Sin In Other Words Friend Take With You Words Upon The Ground Of That Precious Blood Of Jesus A Precious Blood Of Atonement Who Made An Atonement For Sin For The Sinner So Then We Can Say Take With You Words And Plead The Precious Name Of Jesus In All That He Did In All That He Said And In All That He Is One Of Our Hymn Writers Says The Father Loves To Hear That Name In Other Words [28:17] It Is A Mercy If We Know What It Is To Come Before God Pleading With Taking You Words Asking For Pardon For Forgiveness Seeking Salvation From Your Soul And Then To Be Able To Conclude Your Prayer And Say For Jesus Sake Now Can We Plead Any Other Name Can We Go To Any Other Savior Have You Been Brought To This Place To See There Is Salvation And No Other I Read In The Word Of God There Is No Other Name Given Among Men Whereby We Can Be Saved He Is The Only Savior Plead That He Might Then And Come With Words Before Him And Pray That He Might Be Your Intercessor If We Were Called Before The Courts And [29:18] The Crime Which We Did Friends We Weren't Guilty Of Now We're Always Guilty But I'm Taking The Story And We Might Want To Find A Lawyer And Says Lawyer I Can't Come With Right Words I Am Not Educated I Do Not Know All The Laws Of The Land And The Laws Of The Court But Would You Plead My Cause Before The Judge And Before The Jury And Seek To Declare And To Prove That I Am Not Guilty And When I Am Called Upon By The Prosecuting Attorney Or By The Judge In Any Way To Be Questioned Would You Tell Me What To Say And Would You Put Words In My Mouth But Friends Here's The Sad Thing We Are Guilty But There Is One Who Upon The Ground Of His Love Mercy [30:18] And Grace Will Be The Intercessor He Is The Pleader And That's His Very Name When We Think Of Him As Surety When We Think Of Him As The Redeemer Oh What A Mercy To Know There Is One To Plead When David Had As Many Accusations Of His Friends Brought Before Him And They Started To Bring Out To His Sins And His Iniquities And They Said There Is None To Help Him His God Now Will Turn Their Back Upon Him But Knowing His Guilt Knowing His Sin But Knowing The Savior Who Come Into This World To Save The Lost He Says Plead My Cause Oh God Have You Ever Come Before The Lord And Says Oh Plead My Cause As If You Have Almost Come To The End Of [31:18] All Exhausted Every Promise Every Petition Every Thought In Your Soul And You Come To The End Of All Of Self I Have I Don't Know I'm Not Much Of A Theologian But I Have Turned To The Lord Jesus And Says Oh Lord Jesus Plead For Me I Know The Lord God Will Hear Your Prayer Plead My Name My Cause Before Me Take With Your Words And Ask The Lord Jesus To Plead Your Cause As A Great Representative Further In Your Pleading And Taking With Your Words Make Your Cause God's Cause You Remember Godly Jehoshaphat How They Came To Drive Him Out To The Coast And Out Of The Land And To Destroy [32:19] The Sanctuary Hezekiah Knew In a Measure He Was Under The Sentence Of Of Judgment Because The Lord Had Said The Wrath Of God Is Upon The He Had Made In Alliance With Ahab And Done Wrong Oh There's A Godly Man Returning Seeking To Return Again To The Lord But Friend When He Thought They Will Come And Destroy The Sanctuary They Will Take Away The Mercy See And The Name Of God Shall Be Blashing And He Made His Very Cause God's Cause In Other Words Take With You Words And Come Before The Lord And Says Lord For Thy Name Sake For Thy Glory And For Thy True Sake As If God's Name And Glory Is At Stake In [33:19] The Salvation Of Your Soul Ah Friend No One Ever Perished At The Feet Of Jesus Young Friend Is There Anywhere In The Word Of God Where One Came To Be Healed Of Jesus And Wasn't Healed I Wonder What Your Answer Would Be Maybe We Could Try To Remember To Put That Answer Before The Children In The Sabbath School Children Listen Now Is There Anyone In The Word Of God Who Came To Jesus Seeking For Healing And The Lord Turned Him Away I Ought In One Way Give You The Answer Now But We Will Let It Go I Know The Older Ones Know The Answer Oh Friend Take With You Words Knowing That He Is A Compassionate God Take [34:20] With You Words Upon The Ground Of His Attributes Oh What Glorious Attributes Describe The Person Of The Lord Everything In The Word Of God There Is For Your Comfort And For Your Consolation Friend Put It In A Very Simple Language You Need Not Go To Hell You Need Not Perish In Your Sin There Is A Fountain Nearby There Is A Savior There Who Saves To The Utter Most There Is One To Whom You Can Go In His Glorious Humanity And Therefore Friend Take With You Words And Come Upon The Ground That He Is God In Other Words I Can Trust No One Else But God Goodly Daniel Goodly Moses Marvelous Apostle Paul They Could Never Be As It Were The [35:20] Hope Of Salvation Their Words Their Teaching Yes But Not They Themselves And They Would Not And They Would Openly Quickly Tell You That They Are Not The Savior In Other Words He He He He He He Is God Himself Mighty To Save Almighty Power Know All Things You Don't Have To Come With Fancy Words I Can Tell You One Who Came To Him I Don't Put It That Way I Tell You One Who Thought He Came To Him And He Did Not Hear And That Was The Pharisee But It Isn't A Very Fancy Word And It Doesn't Take Much Education To Know What It Is To Speak The Publican's Prayer I Would Almost Say Friend I Don't Believe There's A Service That [36:20] Has Not Gone By That I Have Quoted That Glorious Prayer Take With You Words I Know Smiting Upon Your Breast Friend Because There's The Pompant Of All Iniquity And Say God Be Merciful To Me A Sinner Take With You Words And Go On To Him And Ask Him That He Might Show You The Way Of Salvation Take With You Words And Tell Him You're Lost You're Lost And Undone You're On The Broad Way To Destruction And You Can't Find The Way To The Savior Take With You Words And Ask The Lord To Show You The Way And Lead You Into That Path Take With You Words Upon The Ground Of His Mercy The What What Else Could David Come When He Did A Great Sin Numbering The Children Of Israel He [37:21] Says I Have Sinned Greatly But He Took With Him Words But Thy Mercy Is Great In Other Words Friends Great Sinners Great Mercy What A Combination What A Glorious Truth Friend That's Why I Say To You Take With You Words And Tell The Lord That He's A Merciful God And The Very Thing He Delights To Do Is To Bestow His Mercy To Hell Deserving Sinners Take With You Words Take With You Words Upon The Ground Of His Attribute Of His Grace Oh Grace Is A Precious Precious Precious Word It Means The Unmerited Favor Of God Oh We Have Forfeited All Right We Have Lost All As Were Any Good Hope And Sell We're [38:21] Lost And Undone In Our Own Self But There Is A Gracious God Who Bestows Grace And Even The Greatest And The Vilest Of Sinner Where Paul Says Oh Sin Abounded He Came To The Glorious Place With All The Aboundings Of Sin There's The Aboundings Of His Grace Oh What A Precious Thought Dear Friend Take With Your Words And Go To The Lord And Say Be Gracious Unto Me Lord I Have No Merit Nor Goodness Of My Own But Remember Me According To Thy Loving Kindness And According To Thy Tender Mercy Blood Out All Of My Transgression Oh Friend We Have Such A Deceived Heart You Know I Believe I [39:23] Have Forgotten Some Sins Especially In The Early Work But Friend My Sins All Have To Be Pardoned The Mercy Is This God Did Not Forget And He Showed Me Some Of My Sins Of My Youth And Of My Past I Forgotten Oh Friend How Sad To Be Without A God And Without The Work Of God The Holy Spirit That Does Not Show You Your Sin Then Your Sin Will Remain Upon Your Person And You'll Have To Go To The Pit Of Hell With Your Sin But We Find Here He Says Take Away All Iniquity The Word Taking Of It Means Lifting It Up Now Certainly It Don't Mean Taking Away All Of Iniquity And I Won't Feel Myself As A Sinner But A Condented Sinner Wants To Know Something [40:23] Of Peace In The Conscience Maybe You've Been Brought To This Place To Know I Know That In Glory All The Sins Of God's People Are Atoned For And In The Court Of Justice There The Whole Of Election Of Grace Is Without Thought But I Can't See My Name There But I See My Sins And Even If You Know What It Is To Have A Glimmering Of Hope And And If The Lord Has Given You A Little Hope In His Mercy You Wanted Cleared In Your Own Conscience Don't You Oh He Has Forgiven Me Of All Of My Sin Friend Could You Think Of Any More Glorious Truth Than The Pardon Of Your Sin The Forgiveness Of It Take With Your Words Take Away All My Iniquity [41:23] Cleanse Me And wash Me in That Trecious Fountain Which Is Made Open For Sin And Uncleanness Take With Your Words And Tell The Lord To Show You That Fountain I See In The Word Of God In That Day A Fountain Shall Be Opened Opened Are We Not So Often In Our Early Days Like Hagar There Was A Spring Nearby And She Would Have Perished If God Not Had Opened Her Eyes But The Lord Opened Her Eyes I Leave Hagar As If To Her Standing Of Grace I'm Not Talking About That But The Lord Opened Her Eyes And She Seen A Fountain It Wasn't One Which Was Quickly Made It Was There And Her Eyes Was Opened And She Seen [42:23] That Crystal Clear Fountain She Took Her Crows And She Went And She Filled It And Gave To Her Son And Herself And They Lived Oh Friend What A Fountain What A Fountain Which Is Open It Isn't Only Water It Is Blood Blood To Atone Water To Cleanse Blood To

God Where It Says The Lord Means The Hold Of The Revealed Word Of Truth Take With You Words That The Lord Might Show You The Way You Know Friend Do We Have Anywhere In The Word Of God Where Anybody Sought To Ask A Question Of Jesus I Am Speaking Of Good Question Not Some Of Those Mockery Things Who Did Not Get A Good Answer I Think [44:23] Of Philip Philip Seen The Need Of It He Says I Would Like To See The Father I Wonder Why He Said That I Feel Friend He Knew Something Of His Sin And There Was A Breach Made And He Says To Jesus He Says Show Us The Father And It Suffices Us And The Lord Gave A Good Answer Oh Philip Have I Been So Long With The And Has Thou Not Known The Father If Ye Have Seen Me Ye Have Seen The Father What Do We See In Christ The Father's Gift The Father's Love The Father's Favor We See In Jesus The One Who Is A Glorious Mediator The One Who Is The Way To The Father And No Man [45:24] Cometh Unto The Father But By Him Oh Can You See The Father The Father Is

With God What A Truth What A Glorious Person Now Friend Can I Say Another Word Is There Salvation In Any Other Name Oh It Is A Mercy When The Lord Begins To Narrow You Down And Strip You Of All Of Your Self Will And All Of Your [46:24] Determination And Preconceived Of Ideas Of How You Are To Be Safe And He Brings You Down As A Poor Lost Undone Stripped Naked Sinner Before The Eyes Of God And To See The Glorious Mediator The Glorious God Man Who Came Into This World To Seek And To Save Hell Lost Deserving Sinners Who Could Not Find The Way Who Could Not Save Themselves Take With Your Words Another Thought Comes To Me Take With Your Words Realizing God's Glory Is At State Every Attribute Friend Will Be Displayed In All Of Its Brilliancy In The Salvation Of Your Soul Some Attributes Are Going [47:24] To Be Displayed In Your Damnation His Attribute Of His Justice And His Holiness But Think He Says I Delight In Mercy And When The Children Of Israel Committed The Vilest Of Sins Worshipping Of A Golden Calf Open Profane Words This Is The God Which Took Us Out Of The Land of Friends Would Not Have God Struck Them Down In A Moment Making Such Blasphemous Words As That But Then Moses Went To The Mount He Prayed He Took With Him Words He Come Upon The Ground Of God's Grace He Come Upon The Ground Of God's Faithfulness He Come Upon The Ground Of God's Promise He Came Upon The Ground Of God's Covenant He Took Words He Wrestled With His God And The Lord Said To Moses Leave Me Alone In Other Words Moses Stood In The Pathway And [48:25] What A Mercy Friend A Poor Wretched Lost Sinner Can Stand In The Pathway Of An Almighty God And Find Salvation Take With Your Words Then You're Going To Know His Glory I Am The Lord Goes On Gracious Merciful How Could He Understand How Can

Think About Better But There is No Other Name Given Among Men Take With Your Words Come Upon The Ground Of His Mercy Upon The Ground Of His Honor Upon The Ground Of His Grace Jacob Miserable Jacob Cheat Lied But [49:25] When He Was Brought As A Word Face To Face With His Brother Esau He Feared Greatly And He Says Lord Thou Has Said He Took Words And He Came Before An Almighty God What Was The Final End The Final End Was This Jacob What's Your Name He Says Jacob He Says Thou No More Be Called Jacob But Israel For As A Prince You Have Prevailed With God A Worm Jacob Prevailing With An Almighty God Can You See It Friend The Beauty Of It The Glory Of It A Man Changed From Jacob To Israel A Prince A Worm To A Prince Such Is The Nature Of God's Grace Take With Your Words And Say Like Jacob I Am Unworthy The Least Of Thy Mercies Take With Your Words And Come Upon The Ground Of His Word [50:25] And Says But Thou Has Said Thou Dost Receive Sinners Hezekiah Oh When He Heard The Blasphemous Things He Took Words And He Came Before To The Mercy Seat And He Says The Lord Of Host The God Of Israel That Dwell Is Between The Cherubins He Come Upon The Ground Of His Might His Power And Upon The Ground Of His Precious Blood Can You See The Beauty Of It Friend These Are The Words Of A Compassionate Long Suffering God Take With Your Words I Suppose Friends We Could Find Many Examples In The Word Of God I Mentioned Jacob And I Mentioned Moses I Mentioned Hezekiah I Mentioned The Publican And [51:26] I Would Say We Could See Turn To The Psalms And Find Quotation After Quotation Of That Of Which David Did You Remember How often David Had Said But Lord Thou Has Said To Go Here Or Go There So We Find That Moses In All Now Friends I'll Quickly Take It To A Close I Seem To Gained A Little Strength But Take With You Words Turn To The Lord Now When We Turn Friend We Turn From Something To Something Else Now There Is No Salvation Unless There Is A Turning Friend If You Are Yet Turning To Your Sin And Turning To This World For Your Joy And For Your Comfort You [52:26] Will Perish In It And As Long As Your Face Is Towards This World And Its Pleasures And Even Natural Religion You Will Perish In It But Pray The Lord That He Might Buy His Irresistible Friend Irresistible Grace Is A Precious Truth Nothing Like It Turn To Him And Says Draw Me Draw Me The World Draws Me Everything Draws Me Unbelief Draws Me My Kind Of Reason Draws Me Oh When He Teaches When He Draws By His Irresistible Grace What a Drawing It Is It's A Drawing To Him But When The Lord One Gives You A Little Glimpse Of Your Sin And A Little Glimpse Of The Savior You Know What It Is To Turn From The Hateful Ways Of Sin And Praise God To Interven This Is Why David [53:26] Said Lead Me To The Rock Which Is Higher Than I This Is Why He Said It Was His Only Hope Of Salvation Now Friends What Can I Say Take With You Words And Go To The Lord Amen Shall Shall we Then Conclude Our Service By The
