Purty man, a born once man, meaning a person who's not a Christian. He doesn't come out and say it that clearly. And saying about a carnal man, here's a man who's saved, but he's not a fellowship of the Lord. That's a carnal man. And the spiritual man, he's one who's filled with the Spirit. But God does say it. Not exactly that plain of words, but it's right here, the language and the thought of a natural man. And also the language and the thoughts of a carnal man and also of a spiritual man. I'll try and point them out. Now, it's true something that I often do. You'll see it here in my Bible. I got different colors. Well, this afternoon I just sat down and put a green pen under the language of the natural man, the unsaved man. The expressions you find here concerning the natural man, the unconverted man. And then when you come to the spiritual man, another color. When it comes to the carnal, another color. So we'll be able to detect right away that what applies to the unsaved man, what applies to the carnal Christian, and what applies to the spiritual Christian. Come with this in verse... Verse eleven. For what man knoweth the things of a man save the spirit of man which is in him? Who's he talking about? He's talking about the natural man. That's not a language referring to a Christian. For what man knoweth the things of a man? A natural man. All he knows is natural things. Things pertain to this life. That is personality. That's the way he thinks. Things pertaining to this world. For what man knows the things of a man? You understand an unsaved man. If you're unsaved, you understand that he is unsaved. You talk the same language. Because the unconverted can go right along and understand an unconverted man's langs. Before I was saved, I could mix in with the unsaved. I knew their langs and knew how they thought, what they understood, and what they didn't. But when you get into the spiritual realm, now you've got two people. One is saved and the other is unsaved. And the saved one is talking a language or speaking a language that the unsaved man doesn't understand. But you get two saved people together, they both can speak the same language. Just like two unsaved people, they have everything in common. They both speak the same language, they're natural, they're unconverted. But when the Spirit of God enters into two people, now they can both speak the same language, but it's the spiritual language. And when you have one saved and the other unsaved, There is a barrier there. One is a Christian. The other is not. And they can't speak the same language. And the unshade doesn't understand what the spiritual man is talking about. And that's the way it goes. So here is what God is saying about a natural man. For what man knoweth the things of a man save the spirit of man which is in him? And then he goes on at the end of that verse. even so the things of God knoweth no man but the Spirit of God. So you have the natural man, and you have the Holy Spirit brought in here, and he dwells in the heart of all who are saved. Now we have, he says, we have received, not the Spirit of the world. Now those words, the Spirit of the world, refers to the natural man, the unsaved man, the wisdom of this world. Now we have received not the Spirit of the world, but the Spirit of the world, the Spirit which is of God. Now this says to Christians. Why does he give us his Holy Spirit when we're saved, that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God, which things also we speak? Now he's referring to the Christian here. Now there's a line or two about the unsaved. Not the words which man's wisdom teaches, as the unsaved, but which the Holy Ghost teaches. comparing spiritual things with spiritual. Now he's talking about the Christian. Now verse fourteen. But the natural man. Receive of not the things of the Spirit of God. The unsaved man. The unconverted man. He doesn't receive. He doesn't understand the things of the Spirit of God. Why? For they are foolishness unto him. Neither can he know them. That is the unsaved. Because they are spiritually delivered. Now you come to the next matter. But he that is spiritual. Now you have the natural man. Verse fourteen. This is what felt right up. The natural man. And here's the spiritual man. But he that is spiritual. Judges all things. Yet he himself is judged of no man referring to the unsaved. The unsaved can't judge the system. Putting it this way, unsaved, you not understand God's feelings in the spiritual realm. That was the trouble with Job. Joe was a child of God and three of his friends came along and they tried to advise him and tell him what to do and why he was passing through all this and what God had in mind. They missed him a mile. You could go, if you're a Christian, you go to the most intelligent, learn man in the world. If he's not a Christian, he can't explain to you the purposes of God in your life. Now a Christian can. And the most intelligent person in the world, if he's not a Christian, he does not understand spiritual things. That's very place. But he that is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judgeeth so discerned of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him? But we, that is the spiritual, but we have the mind of Christ. Now you come to another character in verse one of chapter three. And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual. doesn't say you're unsaved he doesn't say you're natural people unsaved people but as unto carnal even as unto babes and christ i have fed you with milk and not with meat for hitherto you were not able to bear it neither yet now are ye able for ye are yet carnal says the second time that words met him For whereas there is among you envians and strife and divisions, are ye not carnal and walkers' men? For while one says, I am of Paul, another I am of Apollos, are ye not carnal? Four times he's using that word carnal. Now you have the unsaved man, the natural man, the person who's not born again, he's not a Christian. He lives in this life, this material world, in this world, he thinks in this world. atmosphere in this world. This is his area. And he can't get up onto that spiritual plane because he's not born again. The spirit of not in him. And so the natural man has his life here, his language is here, his thoughts are here, and this is where he lives. But when he becomes a Christian, when he's born again, the spirit of God comes in, and the Bible becomes a new book. And it takes the Spirit of God in a man to understand the spiritual things that are in this book. And so God has given unto us his Holy Spirit. And this is the spiritual education that we want to talk about. When you stop to think of the world today in almost every field of science, there's a remarkable progress. They're not what it is, whether it's in the field of medicine. or other fields of science, man has made great strides. I wonder if the knowledge of God, this field where the man has made as much stride, many strides, as long strides in the spiritual, and the knowledge of God if he has another one. Men and women are willing to give their time, hours burning the light at night, sacrificing certain pleasures to get knowledge of medicine. or some of the knowledge, some of the science, paying great price. And they come up when some of them are giants in their field. Are you willing to pay the same price to require the knowledge of God and the knowledge of his word under some giant, spiritual giants in the field of knowledge of God? That's what he's getting at. Paul says some of you are just saved. You're still on the meat milk bottle, and you should be grown up and be adopted. Oh, yes, you're saved, but you're carnal, and not spiritual. Now, this is what he's talking about. And I want to say this, spiritual education is not the wisdom of this world. Spiritual education doesn't belong to this wisdom of the world that we read so much about in chapter one and in part of chapter two. The wisdom of this world belongs to the unconverted man. But there's a wisdom that is of God. And you read about that wisdom. And it's a mystery. The mystery of the wisdom of God. A thing is a mystery until it's revealed. Once a thing is revealed, it's no longer a mystery. Now God has revealed unto us what once was a mystery to us. A lot of things in the Bible, although brought up in the Christian home, were mysteries to me. And oftentimes after you're saved, I must confess, many, many years up to now there are some things that are mysterious to me and they're in the Bible. But the older you get, one of these days, God will open it up. It's no longer a mystery. No longer a mystery. It's played. And as you study the Word of God, things that were mysterious, you didn't understand. For by studying of the books, finally God opened it up, and it's no longer a mystery. It's true. That's true of many things that happen in the life of a Christian. I've been talking the truth this week, and they just say, I can't understand. I just can't see why they've had to happen to me. How many could add to that? I will never understand some of the mysteries of life. Regardless of what the natural man says, there are mysteries. And as the Lord Jesus says, what I do, thou knowest not now, thou shalt know that someday we will understand all these mysteries. And so the spiritual education is not in the wisdom of this world. For God has made foolish the wisdom of this world. Imagine God saying that. The wisdom of this world is foolishness of God, because God's not in it. God is not in all their thoughts, and he's not in any of those thoughts, so there's a vast difference between the wisdom of this world and the wisdom of God. Now the wisdom of God, as you have in verse ten of chapter two, you notice what it says, but God hath revealed. Now here's this revelation. God hath revealed them unto us by his spirit. For the Spirit searchedeth all things, yea, the deep things of God. The deep things of God. Now, one who is spiritual can get into some of these deep things. I've never been one to read Jay and Darby's writings. It's always been a little heavy. I could go to sleep almost really. But this week, I ran across just a paragraph of Jew by Jay and Darby. He was a giant about a hundred years ago. And yet it's amazing how those men in those days wrote things you'd think they were alive today. And he was saying something like this, and I'm going to read it because I couldn't commit it to memory, not now. He says, far beyond the remotest point of astronomical discovery, beyond human conquest of sound barriers, and beyond all breadth, length, depth, and height of human comprehension is the infinite and eternal scope. of divine revelation for the children of God. It is inexhaustible, like a telescope that sweeps the universe from the heights of heaven to the depths of hell, and faces the works of God from their beginning to their end. Like a microscope, it reveals the minutest details of the plan and purpose of God, and the perfection of His creation, like a stereoscope. It places all beings and objects, whether on earth or in heaven, in right relation to each other. Now there are the thoughts of a big mind that is going to show something of the knowledge, the deep things of God. And these things are for you, and they are for me. And you may go to a Bible school and learn things. But there are things the Spirit of God can reveal to any Christian. And if there's anything, I've longed for all my life is to be a spirit-taught man. Now, we need both. We need the help of others. I've read lots of them. But I've learned this, that what you get direct from God is shit. You'll never forget it. What you read out of a book and write it out, you'll forget it. You have to go back and refresh your memory. But something that God gives you, direct communication, something opens up to you. You never forget it. It sticks. Not only does it stick with you, it sticks in those who hear it. This is being taught by the Holy Spirit of God. And God wants us to call upon His Spirit. And I think every time we open the pages of the Bible that Christians... He said, ask God the Holy Spirit, and there's nothing right, wrong in doing that. You ask God to do things, you ask the Lord Jesus to do things, and it's just as proper to ask the Holy Spirit to reveal the Scriptures to you. He is the author. Men led by the Holy Spirit gave us the Word of God, and called upon the Holy Spirit to give us light and understanding in the things of God. And he is our teacher. He is the revealer, there have been verses ten and twelve. Verse eleven says, and we have already mentioned that as for the man, it is his own spirit within him that knows all about him, the natural man. But when you get the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God knows all about God. He knows all about the word of God, and he can reveal these things to you. That's a wonderful thing. When the Spirit of God, you sit down quietly and just use over the word, not taking any time, not being in a hurry. Just sit down and meditate on the Scriptures and let the Spirit of God open things up. I know the easy way, the short cuts, and you want to just something to help you run and pull the book out. That's good at times. It's a lot of help. But just let the Spirit of God open up the Scriptures. He wrote it. He knows what it means. He'll reveal things to you. That's why He's here. The teaching of the Holy Spirit of God. So the things of God know of no man but the Spirit of God which is in him. The natural man speaks about natural things. The spiritual man speaks about spiritual things. When one has the Spirit of God within him, and he studies this book, and I really believe But the Spirit of God in the Christian is creating a thirst constantly for this book. He wrote it. He wants you to know it. And the Spirit of God would draw you towards it. The Spirit of God who knows this book. He knows all about what it teaches. He knows all about God. And he wants to convey and communicate the contents and meaning of this book to you. He is our teacher. The Holy Spirit is our teaching. In fact, you'll find right in your passage here, you want to look at verse ten. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit. Now notice verse thirteen. Which things also we speak, not the words which man is from Jesus, but which the Holy Ghost teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things. So you have the Spirit as a reveal in verse ten and as a teacher in verse thirty. How wonderful to know something of the Spirit of God opening up the word of God to you. Now it's good to read these books I already said. We owe a lot to these men, but never let books take the place of the word of God. God wants us to read his holy word. Now, in reference to this, think of some of the texts, and I'm just going to read them for you, relative to the Holy Spirit. In John fourteen, and verse sixteen, and I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another comforter, that he may abide with you forever. Isn't that something for those who think they can be lost again? You ever think of that thing? And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another comforter, that he may abide with you until you disobey, until you sin? No, he'll abide with you forever. Now that spirit can be grieved in the Christian. Nevertheless, we're sealed by the Holy Spirit of God until the day of redemption. You notice verse seventeen of chapter fourteen, even the spirit of truth. Now three times you'll find those words, spirit of truth. even the spirit of truth whom the world cannot receive. You see there, the unsaved man, the natural man, he doesn't have the Holy Spirit, because he sheath him not, neither knoweth him, but we ye know him. For he dwelleth with you. He is the divine teacher. He is with you, and he is in you. That's what it says in that book. And also you have in verse twenty-five, these things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance whatsoever I have said unto you. Now this is the work of the Holy Spirit. Chapter fifteen and verse twenty six. But when the Comforter has come whom I will send unto you from the Father even the Spirit of Truth, there he is, the Spirit of Truth, with proceeded from the Father he shall testify of me. But also in chapter sixteen, verse thirteen, howbeit when he, the Spirit of Truth, there he is again the Spirit of Truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth. He'll never guide you in error. He'll guide you into all truth, for he shall not speak of himself. Whatever he shall hear, that shall he speak, and he will show you things to come. Imagine the Spirit of God showing you things to come. He shall glorify me, for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you. The Spirit of God will receive from the Lord Jesus, and he will show it unto you. All things that the Father hath are mine, he says. Therefore said I, that he that is the Spirit of God, shall take of mine, and show it unto you. And in First John, through twenty-seven, but the anointing which ye have received of him, the anointing is the Holy Spirit, abide it in you, and ye need not that any man teach you, but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it has taught you, ye shall abide in it. These are the wonderful scriptures in John's Gospel, chapters fourteen, fifty and sixty, having to do with the Holy Spirit of God. In the believer, the author of this book, the expounder, the interpreter of this book, the revealer of this book, the impeachers, he will. All we have to do is cast ourselves upon him in all our ignorance and all our inability. our small capacity, and ask the Holy Spirit to illuminate the divine change and teach us what in this lesson is. Going back to these three men, I want us to go over some things concerning them. They're very simple. What is the attitude of the natural man, first of all, toward the Bible? The attitude of the natural man, the understated man towards the Bible, is simply we cannot understand it. It's absolutely impossible for the unsaved man to understand the Bible. His attitude toward it is? Well, I'm afraid of it. I have somewhat a feeling that the Bible is in truth. It's true. It speaks of heaven. It speaks of hell. As much as a natural man doesn't like to think about hell, he likes to think about a heaven. Somehow, backed in the human heart and mind, the unconverted man, has this fear. The Bible is true, and it will come to pass, what it says. He doesn't like it. He fears this book. It's the Bible. But at the same time, he avoids it. He doesn't pick it up each day, like he does the newspaper. He's got an atrium at the center. He wants things of this life. The Bible says, It can stay on that table till the dust gathers on it, untouched. And that's what man doesn't want. It looks respectable to have one in the front room or the sides of bed. There it is. Some hate it. They don't want the Bible. They don't believe it. And they don't want anything to do with the Bible. That's the attitude of the unshaved man towards the Bible. What's the attitude of a carnal Christian? A man who is saved, and he's out of fellowship with God. He's a carnal Christian. Well, I'll tell you what his attitude is. He's spoon-fed. He's a babe. All he gets is what he gets from the platform. He's been fed with a spoon, maybe with an eyepropper. He's still on the milk side. Paul said in chapter three, he says, are you not babe? He said, I said, you will milk. tells you that in those verses. I fed you with milk in verse two and not with meat. You ought to be taking something heavy. You ought to be taking something that a matured person could take. But you can't. You're still on the milk box. You haven't grown. And so this is the attitude of the carnal man towards the Bible. Oh, I'm Savior. But you're walking in the flesh. You're walking after the flesh. no progress knowing nothing of the deep things of god and unable to rightly decide the word of truth you don't know the difference between israel and the church you don't know what's written to the jew and what's written to the gentile and what's written to the church you open your bible you crack it anywhere from genesis revelation and you apply it to everybody and there's a lack of understanding the bible and being able to rightly decide the word of truth that's find in your life. So this is the attitude of the carnal Christian. Yes, I'm saved. I accept that Christ I'm going to heaven. That's just about it. The carnal Christian. What about the spiritual man and his attitude toward the Bible? He discerneth it. He understands it. He can explain it. He can understand some of the deep things of God. Not all of us. No man will ever understand them off, but he's able to feed them on meat, something with little substance. He can put their teeth in there. That's how Paul compares these three. Then you come to the Spirit. What's the attitude of the unconverted man toward the Spirit? He just don't have the Spirit, that is. He doesn't have the Holy Spirit, then after that. He rejects it. He resisted. Some of them blaspheme the Holy Spirit. That's the unconverted man, the man who's never been born again. What the attitude of a carnal man toward the Holy Spirit, he can grieve him. Grieve the Holy Spirit of God, a lack of growth or disobedience to the Word. Disgrieve the Holy Spirit. You can quench the Spirit. And when you do, when the Spirit would lead you to do something right, lead you to go and get to the Bible and read it, and you don't, you're frank with it. Lead you to speak to somebody about their soul, and you don't. You're frank with the Spirit. Lead you to go and pray, and you're frank with the Spirit. This is a carnal system. One who's born again. But this is his attitude towards the Holy Spirit. What's the attitude of a spiritual man towards those Holy Spirit? We build a... In other words, she wants to know all he can about the Spirit of God and the Word of God and the Christ of God and he seeks to be led by the Spirit. It's a big difference, isn't it? What's the attitude of these three men toward growth? Well, the natural man, he hadn't been born yet. He's dead in trespasses and in sin, so he can't go as a Christian because he has not a Christian yet. He's got to be tricked. You have to be christened in Ephesians two one. You have to be christened who were dead in trespasses and in sin. And so the natural man hasn't started to go yet because he's not saved. He's not a babe in Christ. And so he hasn't started to exist as a Christian. Now when it comes to the carnal Christians, what's his attitude towards those? He's still a babe. He's walked. He's not going. He's just where he was. when God saves. He knows that sins are forgiven. He knows he has peace with God. He knows he has everlasting life. He knows he'll never perish, period after a time. Can you imagine that a mother and a father, the little babe is born? Not many weeks old before you begin detecting that something wrong this day does not mean it. And I was in the home one time in North Carolina, and I went in to visit this family, and I thought there's something strange about that child. His head was a little enlarged, and it looked running around as if it were about a two or three-year-old. It was thirteen years old. What a heartbreak he rose there. How do you think God feels when some of his children haven't grown? saying for a number of you and are still days still on the no-fly they haven't worked you parents would agree that that happened to some of your children no ghost and the apostle John said concerning his I have no greater joy than to know my children walked in truth God wants us to go in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus And so here you find the attitude of the carnal man towards going. He's just not going. But also the spiritual man, what about him? He's advanced in these things. In other words, he's going in grace. He's just what he should be at that age. You take your child and it's a year old. Well, the doctor looks at it, weighs it, damages. Well, it's a perfect child. It's just what it should be at a year. Five years, take it back to the same doctor, examine the child, a healthy boy, just what he should be at five years. He's first taken back from his chance. And so he goes. He's just what he should be at that age. His mind is developing just like his body. He's natural. He's just what he should be at that age. Have you been saved ten years? Are you just what you should be? At that age, it's up to you to answer that question. Or are you still a baby? A baby. You take an apple in June, a little green apple. That's all right. It's June. July. Well, it's a little larger, almost halfway. That's good for July. In August, not a part of August. big rosy apple, just right for us, that normal way. God wants us to go as Christians and not have any walk, standing still in the things of God, but going in grace. Now Paul's talking Eastern, isn't he? That's why he says, God, I'll be on me. Here you are, save several years, and you haven't gone yet. Just settle on the milk farm. That's all. Scientists, what about souls and service? How do these three characters size up to this? The salvation of souls and serving the Lord. Well, of course, the natural man, he has no interest. He's not interested in serving the Lord. Church members may be, yes. Some are interested in church members. I remember this happened in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in fact. when I was in the home room at the chapel in Winston-Salem, Donald is brother there. And when I was there, he said, you know, I don't think my father is a Christian. He was a preacher in Winston-Salem. He would read some of the letters. He said, I don't think my father is a Christian. He put too much emphasis on work, but she gave him the gospel. Right along. One day she got a letter. She was over, George. The brother wrote, and I want to listen to him. I read my father's got saved. That's the first time I've ever heard him write in a letter. I've heard him speak. He said, The blood of Christ was put away sin. And he said this letter from then onward. I went to went up the field. She said, My father is. Well, I went up to the field after being in Raleigh for three years. And I wasn't there long. And I stayed with him. And he said, Brother Wilson, there are two men starting a mission downtown in this and there. And he says, they're trying their best to get people to join the church, and they want every preacher in town to take his turn. Would you go down some night if I made a ring? And I said, yes. So he made me a ring, but I went down with James Huggins, his wife, and this has been a couple of Christians. We went down, and this man got up. And he says, folks, we're just hoping that we can get one new member, church member, every night. Just think. He said, if we get one person to join some church, local church, it's going to be three hundred and sixty-five members a year. Think of that. Well, you know how that registered with me. So when I got up to the street, I remember what I spoke on the third of Acts. And I emphasized the need of being born again. There could be a member of all the churches. That wouldn't take you to heaven. You need to be born again. And when I got through, the man was sitting down there, I said, would you mind closing in prayer? Pray yourself. I knew my message didn't go over. You know, it hardly shakes hands with me. But all they set up to this mission is try and get someone to join the church every night. That happened in Lucifer. Friends, the unsaved people can find their church members. Lots of people are trying to get members of the church. They'd like to get someone to join the shiver there. We want to get them to Christ, that's it. But the unsaved, that might be their attitude towards serving the Lord. But what about the carnal Christians? Well, I'm telling you about the carnal Christians. You have no sense of responsibility. Let someone else do it. That's the challenge. Oh, I would say that I know I'm going to heaven. All my sins are forgiven. But I don't feel any responsibility. Let someone else do it. Take a more time than I do it. Yes. David says, Lord, keep me from being like them that go down to the pit. Keep me from being like them, that's what he's saying. That's what he's done. Surely I should have some concerned about the law, those who need Christ. Now what about the spiritual Christians? What is Habitus Ward's service and soul? He's burdened. He's exercised. He's dizzy. That's the spiritual thing. What about worship? The natural man, he can't worship. He doesn't have the capacity of the world. What about the carnal Christians? He's terrible. And yet that meeting condemns him. His life as such, he's afraid to go to it. It condemns him. Too much of God there. What about the spirit of the Christian? He loves it. He longs for it. He loveth it. He loveth it. There's a difference. What about the attitude toward the world of these three men? The natural man is part and part of life. The unsaved man... He's writing with a crowd. The world loves its own. And he's condemned this. That's the unsaved man. This is his life. This is his heaven. This is his ever. In his work. He's the unsaved man. That the carnal Christian saved us from the way from God. He flushed with us. And it becomes conformed with us. Paul says, be not conformed with this word. It's possible for a Christian to be conformed. The Lord Jesus Christ says, I'm going to be separate from them. I'm separated. They are not of this world. He's even as I am not of this world. That's the spirit of God says, I want my people to be separated. Not part and parcel of this world. You're Christian. I've called you out of this world. I'll show that you belong to me by living a separate life. What about the second coming of Christ? The unconverted Christian, unconverted person. How does he feel toward the second coming? Well, he's afraid of it. He knows he's not ready for it. Some don't even believe it. That's the unconverted man. What about the carnal Christian? He believes it. And he's afraid of it. He doesn't want the Lord to come and catch him. A carnal Christian. In fact, the Bible says, You'll be ashamed before him that is coming. The crown of Christian would put it on. I hope the Lord doesn't come. My Lord. He wants, has a close. My Lord, it has come. I've got a few things I want to do. That's what the crown of Christian is. What's the spirit of Christian? Even so come, Lord Jesus. I want the Lord to come. I'd like to see. That's the attitude of a citizen. I'm a believer. What's their attitude towards reward? And that shall man have none. No reward, just a lost eternity. What about the carnal Christian? Shave so as by fire. Wood, hay, shovel, everything gone up. You just got saved by the skin of your teeth. Saved by the grace of God. That's the thing else of black. saved so as by fire to lead and stuff with you. What about the spiritual man? Ah, yes, this is something. Gold, silver, precious gold. Well done. Now good. And fix yourself. What about fellowship with God? The unsaved knows nothing of it. The carnal Christian. Yes. In and out. just a little percentage of it. Now and again when trouble comes, or sorrow, I like to have fellowship with God. What about the Spirit of the Spirit? Full fellowship. I enjoy the Lord every day, every day, the Spirit of the Spirit. Constant fellowship with the Lord. Here you have the three men. The unsaved man, his attitude toward these things. the carnal Christian and his attitude, and the spiritual Christian and his attitude. I trust you find tonight what grave you are. And if you're unsaved, come to know Christ, or even though a Christian can be carnal, it's a long way from being natural. Because a natural man's loss, he's going to hell, a carnal Christian will go to heaven. But he'll be ashamed when he gets there because he'll do away his life and time and talent. The first spiritual Christian is a happy person. He's happy, and his object and aim is to live for Christ. But when he gets to heaven, he uses all the time and talent he has for the glory of his God for a happy eternal life. Shall we go? Our Father in heaven, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, we commend for thy presence. We have asked thy blessing upon thy precious word. Be thankful for it. How Solomon searched me days when we faced up to you up there. May our hearts be stirred tonight as to where we stand in the light of these things. May there be searchings of hearts and of judgments in our lives. And then you hear tonight alone say, May they come to Christ, nor the door of sin forgiven. We ask you to now save your precious name. Amen. Shall we turn over to three-two-six, three-hundred-and-twenty-six. More about Jesus what I know, more of his grace to others show. More of his saving full mercy. More of his love who died for me. More, more about Jesus. More, more about Jesus. more of his shaving full of tea, more of his love, reside for me, shall we stand and sing? More about me, the world I know, Lord of His grace to others know, Lord of His saving foolishly, Lord of His love will die for me. The second verse will be our last. If someone wants to accept Christ tonight, someone tells you he's going to accept Christ, or she's going to accept Christ, or has, there's your opportunity. But I want you to notice how it's for me. More about Jesus. Let me learn. more of this holy will to learn. Spirit of God is mighty to be, showing the things of Christ in his second day. More about Jesus that we learn, more of his holy will to discern, the title of God of my nature to be. going the things of Christ to me. More, more about Jesus. More, more about Jesus. More of his saving furnace day. More of his love who died for me.
