And turn in those same song books to song number 58. Song number 58. We'll sing what child is this? Song number 58.

So welcome back to church and I am hot right now. Good night that office. You've got to close those vents. I walked into that office and it is a sauna and I'm trying to recover from that right now. So there's different thermostats, one for that area and one for this area. I need like a fan or something right now. Anyway, that being said, welcome to Mount Baptist Church. Happy December. And as you know, at the beginning of every month we've got a cake that Miss Ruth makes for all the birthdays of the month. And so if you haven't already gotten a piece of that, definitely go back there later on. And then just some announcements here. We do have some visitors from Ripley, West Virginia. So when you get a chance, we haven't said hi already. And so down south. So but and then service time, everything's gonna be the same as far as what's on the list here for service times. We're gonna have our soul winning time at one p.m. And so try to get back here after lunch a little before one so we can get teamed up and go out. And then four p.m. is our afternoon service after the soul winning and everything. And as far as the regional selling times, don't forget about those at Tuesday and Wednesday. And so brother Charles leads up the Tuesday time. Brother Richie leads up the Wednesday time. And so you want to be on the WhatsApp to get those locations and exactly what time they're gonna be meeting up for that. Our Bible memory. We're in new month, so we're gonna do Psalm two. I think I said Psalm twenty three, but we may do a couple of Psalms as we're going through here. But Psalm two is a good song to have memorized. There's a lot of prophetic stuff in Psalm two dealing with the Lord. And so Psalm two is gonna be our memory chapter for the month. And then Luke twelve fifty one is our memory verse of the week. And I don't wanna mess it up here. Suppose you that I am come to give peace on earth. I tell you nay, but rather division. And so that is our memory verse for the week. And then when it comes to upcoming events, we have the Christmas party. And so that's on the eleventh. So at four p.m. on the eleventh, we have the Christmas party. We have a sign up sheet on the refrigerator. So if you want to bring something you can. You don't have to. But that sign up sheet will also tell you what's already gonna be brought. So so you don't double up or triple up on things. And we when we have that party. So we'll fill in the gaps. You know whatever someone's not bringing we'll figure out what we're gonna have there. So we're not just gonna have a whole bunch of potatoes and like sides and no meat or something like that. So we're definitely gonna have some meat. So we'll figure that out. But this is not a vegan church just so you know. Okay. You're allowed to be vegan and come to this church. But you start judging us for eating bacon and all that other stuff and we're gonna have problems. But that being said I'm excited about that. When it comes to the new year we'll probably end up doing a New Year's Eve kind of party like we did last year. And so I think it's on a Friday or it's on Saturday. Is it on Friday or Saturday? Is it is it Saturday New Year's Day. Okay. So Friday we were talking about the men's prayer meeting we usually had last Friday. So we're going to figure out what we're gonna do there. If we're doing a party that day it may be hard to do a prayer meeting or maybe we'll figure out something as far as when we have the men's prayer meeting. This month is always hectic or trying to get things done because everybody's got family and they're visiting or you know whatever the case may be. And so if you can't make it to any of these events don't feel bad. Obviously everybody's got their schedules and everything else when it comes to that. But when it comes to the New Year's one that one's fun. We do a lot of games and stuff like that. We do try to do popcorn preaching men's preaching time during that as well. And so we don't have that on the schedule yet but we're trying to plan that out. So and then when it comes to birthdays today is what the fifth. So we definitely have Quinn and I'm bad about like thinking about what day is in the week when you're like on this day right here like when like seven days later if that counts or anyway so so we have actually three we have Hunter and Rebecca Jones. So this week. So so I have to sing birthday to Quinn Hunter and Rebecca. And so how old is everybody going to be. How old is Quinn. Two big two. And then Rebecca and Hunter. Was it one she'll be one. And then Hunter is going to be six. So so amen. We'll sing happy birthday before we get into the last song there. And then all that anniversary is not yet. Yeah. Not yet. And then pregnancies being in prayer for all the ladies on the pregnancy list here. And so especially for the ones that are this month because that can happen at any moment. OK. Not like the rapture but you know but yeah so but but obviously be in prayer for all these ladies that are on the pregnancy list here through all the different terms and everything else and be in prayer for all the ladies that just had babies and and you know that are dealing with that transition there and recovery process. If anything sometimes the mothers need more prayer during the recovery process than they do during even the delivery. So just be in prayer for all the ladies in our church that are dealing with babies and all that and be in prayer for all the ladies in our church too that are wanting to get pregnant or you know stuff like that. You know we always want to be in prayer for that because you know we never know like who's trying and you know and all that stuff and it's always a tender subject. So just be in prayer for the ladies in general in our church the young families and all that. And I think if there's any all this is cool paper. It's like glossy and everything. You found some like refuse. This is like fancier than what we're used to. It looks real nice. So anyway but that's about all I got for announcements. Brother Dave is going to come and sing one more song and I think Brother Levar you reading this morning Luke chapter 12 is our our chapter for the morning. So birthdays song while we're reading. All right. Take your song books and turn to song number sixty nine song number sixty nine in your song books. We'll sing Oh Come Oh Come Emmanuel. But before we do that we need to sing happy birthday. And we missed Anna Spina's birthday. Hold moon was her birthday the 30th and she is too awesome. Well happy birthday to Anna as well. And so we have Quinn we have Anna and we have Hunter and Rebecca. All right. So if you all want to stand up we'll sing happy birthday. We got some good sports here. All right. We'll sing we'll sing happy birthday to the birthday people. And right. No I didn't start. No no no. You start when I start. No no no no. I'm the song leader. OK. Rebellious. All right. All right. We'll sing over there ready. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday. God bless you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you all. And then we will sing song number sixty nine. Oh come oh come Emmanuel. And ransom captive Israel. That mourns in lonely exile here. Until the son of God appears. Rejoice. Rejoice. Emmanuel. Shall come to thee oh Israel. Oh come thou rod of Jesse free. Thine own from Satan's tyranny. From depths of hell thy people save. And give them victory o'er the grave. Rejoice rejoice. Emmanuel. Shall come to thee oh Israel. Oh come thou day spring come and cheer. Our spirits by thine advent here. Disperse the gloomy clouds of night. And death's dark shadows put to flight. Rejoice rejoice. Emmanuel. Shall come to thee oh Israel. Oh come thou key of David come. And open wide our heavenly home. Make safe the way that leads on high. And close the path to misery. Rejoice rejoice. Emmanuel shall come to thee oh Israel. Oh come oh come thou Lord of might. Who to thy tribes on Sinai's hide. In ancient times it's give the law. In cloud and majesty and awe. Rejoice rejoice. Emmanuel. Shall come to thee oh Israel. All right take your Bibles and turn to Luke chapter number 12. Luke chapter number 12. Brother Levi will come and read that for us. Luke chapter number 12. In the meantime when they were gathered together in an innumerable multitude of people insomuch that they trode one upon another he began to say unto his disciples first of all beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees which is hypocrisy. For there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed neither hid that shall not be known. Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light and that which he have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. And I say unto you my friends be not afraid of them that kill the body and after that have no more that they can do but I will forewarn you I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear. Fear him which after he hath killed the killed hath power to cast into hell. Yea I say unto you fear him. Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings and not one of them is forgotten before God. But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore ye are of more value than many sparrows. Also I say unto you whosoever shall confess me before men him shall the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God. But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God. And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of Man it shall be forgiven him. But unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven. And when they bring you unto the synagogues and unto magistrates and powers take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer or what you shall say. For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say. And one of the company said unto him Master speak to my brother that he divide the inheritance with me. And he said unto him man who made me a judge or divider over you. And he said unto them take heed and beware of covetousness for a man's life consists not in the abundance of the things which he possesses. And he spake a parable unto them saying the ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentiful. And he thought within himself saying what shall I do because I have no room where to bestow my fruits. And he said this why do I will pull down my barns and build greater. And there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods. And I will say to my soul soul thou has much goods laid up for many years take thine ease eat drink and be merry. But God said unto him thou fool this night thy soul shall be required of thee. Then who shall those things be which thou has provided. So is he that lath up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God. And he said unto his disciples therefore I send you take no thought for your life what ye shall eat neither for the body what you shall put on. The life is more than meat and the body is more than raiment. Consider the Ravens for they neither sow nor reap which neither have storehouse nor barn and God feedeth them. How much more are ye better than the fowls. And which of you with taking thought can add to a stature one cubit. If ye then not be not able to do that thing which is least why take ye thought for the rest. Consider the lilies how they grow they toil not they spin not. And yet I say unto you that Solomon in all his glory was not a raid like one of these. If then God so clothe the grass which is today in the field and tomorrow is cast into the oven how much more will he clothe you oh ye little faith. And seek not ye what ye shall eat or what or what you shall drink neither be ye doubtful be ye of a doubtful mind. For all these things do the nation do the nations of the world seek after and your father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you. Fear not little flock for it is your father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Sell that ye have and give alms provide yourselves bags which wax not old a treasure in the heavens that fails not where no thief approaches nor moth corrupted for where your treasure is there will your heart be also. Let your you want let your loins be girded about and your thoughts and your lights burning and ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their Lord when he will return from the wedding that when he cometh and knocketh they may open unto him immediately. Blessed are those servants whom the Lord when he cometh shall find watching. Verily I say unto you that he shall gird himself and make them to sit down and to meet and will come forth and serve them and if he shall come in the second watch or come in the third watch and find them so blessed are those servants and this know that if the good men of the house had known what hour the thief would come he would have watched and not have suffered his house to be broken through. Be therefore ready also for the Son of Man cometh at an hour when you think not. Then Peter said unto him Lord speakest thou this parable unto us or even to all and the Lord said who then is that faithful and wise steward whom his Lord shall make ruler over his household to give them their portion of meat in due season. Blessed is that servant whom his Lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Of a truth I say unto you he that he will make him ruler over all that he hath but and if that servant say in his heart my Lord delayeth his coming and shall begin to beat the men servants and maids maidens and to eat and drink and be drunk and to be drunken the Lord of that servant will come will come in the day when he looketh not for him and an hour when he is not aware and will cut him in sunder and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers and that servant which knew his Lord's will and prepared not himself neither did according to his will shall be beaten with many stripes but he that knew not and did commit things worthy of stripes shall be beaten with few stripes for unto whomsoever much is given of him shall much be required shall much shall be much required and to men that committed much of him they will ask them more I am come to set fire on the earth and what will I if it be already kindled but I have a baptism to be baptized with and how am I straighten till it be accomplished suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth nay or I tell you nay but rather division for from henceforth there shall be five in one household divided three against two and two against three the father shall be divided against the Sun and the Sun against the father the mother against the daughter and the daughter against the mother and the mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and the daughter-in- law against her mother-in-law and he said also to the people when you see a cloud rise out of the West straightway you say there come with a shower and so it is and when you see the south wind blow you say there will be heat and it cometh to pass ye hypocrites you can discern the face of the sky and of the earth but how is it that you do not discern this time yay and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right when thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate as thou are in the way give diligence that thou mayst be delivered from him lest he hail thee to the judge and the judge sliver thee to the officer and the officer cast thee into prison I tell thee thou shalt not depart hence till thou has paid the very last mime let's pray God thank you for today God pray that you be with pastor as he preaches and help us to learn something God we pray all these things in your name amen amen so I'm gonna find my button in there amen so you're there in Luke chapter 12 and it's a longer chapter but but just a lot of good stuff in there but I want you to focus in go to verse 49 there of Luke chapter 12 verse 49 and the Bible reads I am come to send fire on the earth and what will I if it be already kindled but I have a baptism baptism to be baptized with and how am I straight until it be accomplished suppose ye that I'm come to send to give peace on earth I tell you nay but rather division for from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided three against two and two against three the father shall be divided against the son and the son against the father the mother against the daughter and the daughter against the mother the mother in law against her daughter-in-law and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law so name of the sermon this morning is polarization is good polarization is good and what does polarization mean if you think of like the polls like the North Pole and the South Pole obviously they're on polar opposite you probably heard of polar opposites but polarization that the definition of polarization is a sharp division as a population or group into opposing factions okay and where does this sermon come from well you know if you listen to anything in the world as far as what's going on in the world everybody keeps saying our nation is the most polarized it's ever been and you know they're just everybody's polarized and just to to and I agree with them I think it is the most polarized our country's ever been ever since I've been alive which obviously I'm only 36 so you know take that with a grain of salt as far as how long that's been but the idea is is that everybody thinks that's a bad thing there's like all our country so polarized you know we need to unite no actually polarization is a good thing and I'm glad our country is polarized because the think about the two sides that you're on you have the one side that wants to kill babies up until and even after birth the other side says no we don't want to kill babies actually it should be illegal it's murder yeah that's a polar polarization but you know what we need to make that polarization and that's a good thing to cut those things I'm not meeting the middle on that they want to meet in the middle and be like oh no you can kill babies as long as a certain age or a certain month as far as in the womb give me a break you know that's going to be polarized and if anything our country needs to become more polarized okay because when it comes to this is that people would say well you know as Christians we should all be uniting is that what the Bible teaches though is that what Jesus came to do is to unite everybody in the world together because you know what we're coming to the Christmas season and a lot of people misinterpret you know what it says when the angels came and come down and they're talking to the shepherds and it says peace on earth goodwill toward men you know why that that would be the case because we're going to preach the gospel of peace the gospel of peace for salvation and if you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ you have peace with God but guess what have they all obeyed the gospel it says they have not all obeyed the gospel for he says that Lord who had believed the report faith for faith coming by hearing here by the Word of God and it says have they not all heard yeah you know they have heard and the idea there is that yeah we'll have peace when everybody believes on the Lord Jesus Christ and they all get saved that's when we'll have peace and one day we will have peace you know ultimate peace when you have the new heavens new earth you have new Jerusalem with all the saved and you have outer darkness where you have all the unsaved and there's going to be a polarization won't there and don't we preach every single time we go out soul winning a polarization of heaven and hell eternal life eternal damnation you know what polarization is a good thing and actually you know God preaches polarization you know throughout the whole Bible so he didn't come to sing kumbaya with all the false prophets of the world and all the wicked people in the world and what we have today in America is there's a polarization between a bunch of wicked insane debaucherous animals that are on one side and then you have the other side where you have you know at least some conservative values now there are on this side people that believe the Bible and believe it to the T but then there are people that don't take it far enough right and if anything I'd say you know what the the the right the conservatives need to be more polarized than ever and the good thing about polarization is the fact that when things are so polarized like that it forces people to make a choice and when everything's just kind of lukewarm in the middle like where everything's just kind of coming together and you're just not sure which side to go on or it's moderate you know you know the only time I like to hear the word moderation it says what let your moderation be known unto all men the Lord is at hand the Lord is at hand okay that's the only time I want to hear the word moderation okay when it comes to eating food I don't want to hear that word now I'm just kidding you know especially around Thanksgiving and Christmas you know I don't want you to be moderate with my mashed potatoes I want you to be and here's thing liberals not a bad term because I want you to be liberal with those mashed potatoes okay but here's the thing though all joking aside obviously those are words that have meanings and when you're coming with politics you know what I'm not a moderate I'm an extremist okay you're like are you a religious zealot yes I am are you a religious extremist yes I am because the Bible is extreme I think heaven and hell are pretty extreme aren't they eternal life eternal damnation that's pretty extreme you know God Almighty who created everything and the devil that's a pretty extreme polarization you know what that's where we need to be and I'm talking you know you know you'll hear like conservative pundits be like oh we know we're so polarized you know the country's something good good maybe you actually make a choice and be righteous for once because we had a bunch in the 90s and in the in the 2000s we have a bunch of Republicans that don't know what side they should be on there are a bunch of limp-wristed you know guys that shouldn't be called men that were in office they didn't do anything about you know abortions that are going on in the wicked debauchery of sodomy that's going on in our country and you know what it needs to be polarized to where people are going to say you know what we're done with it all we're done with all the wickedness over here we're not giving an inch on any of it and polarization is good because it does put a line in the sand which side are you going to be on which side are you going to be on you know what this happened in the book of Exodus where you know Moses had to say who's on the Lord's side in the more polarized our country is the better that separation will be and the thing is that people are talking about succession in our country you know like our country like being you know split into two different countries you know what I say amen and amen let our country be split into righteousness and debauchery and let's see what God does with that debauchery because you know what happened with Sodom and Gomorrah God destroyed it with fire and brimstone let them be split into their socialist communist utopia that they all wish they desired and then look let them look like communist Russia communist China like would like like hungry when when when red when when Russia took them over and they had all the secret service and killing all their family members and you know what Stalin killed more people than even Hitler killed win that when the World War two was going on and all that stuff with communism so you know what they can have their utopia let them have you know and don't get me wrong there's good people in all states okay I'm not here to say like you know nuts to my friends that are in California and you know or New York or something like that but you know what I don't care how we divide this but you know what I'm all for it I don't want to go to war I don't want to have a civil war you know we're like fighting over it but you know what I think on both sides everybody wants it you know what they can't stand us these libtards and insane people that don't know there's only two genders and don't know that a baby's alive in the womb when it's kicking and hiccuping you know what if you're gonna be insane and you're gonna be that wicked do you know what yeah go off and take your state and you know what you take all the queers with you while you're at it too because I just want to watch and sit back and just watch it burn because that's what's going to happen the only reason that America is not being burned to the ground right now is because there's a righteous remnant that still stands up for the Word of God but what happens if you take away that righteous remnant then it's going to be demolished go to Matthew chapter 10 Matthew chapter 10 so I'm all for polarization every time I hear someone talk about polarization I'm like good more more more polarization take it further because I think there's going to be and it's there's there's there's going to be a line in the sand at some point people are gonna be like that's enough and I think pedophilia is going to be that line where people are like that's enough when it comes to sexual immorality in our country we all knew this what they were going after because we had the Bible we know they're predators we know that that they'll sleep with a man they'll sleep with anything we know that that's true but it's finally coming to fruition it's finally coming out that they want to add that P on there they want to add you know love that doesn't have an age it's already happening in Europe and it's coming to an American near you you know what I think that's where the line is going to be drawn because I think that there's still enough you know red-blooded Americans that will say you know what stay away from my children I mean and I mean that's even happening in the school system when they when you get someone up that says I think in Virginia right the guy said you know what parents don't have the right to tell us what we should what we're going to teach your children I mean yeah you start messing with our children then that's fighting words and you know what I think that's a good thing you know what I say to the left keep going you know keep going over to the left keep going over to insanity because that's going to make everybody kind of separate from you and then take all the insane people with you take all the psychopaths with you go off and start your own country and you know what have fun with that I think that's what should happen you say well we're in the end times I think that this is Babylon and listen Babylon is mentioned as a city and we don't really know what that is exactly you know what I'm going to preach and I'm going to preach in a manner that we can turn our country around or that we're going to you know have a revival to where we're going to have you know righteous people again and righteous nations and righteous government you know what just think about how it was when the Greeks went into the bottery and then what happened well they got taken out by the Romans then you had the Romans what happened when they went into that you have Pompeii that gets destroyed by a volcano that was just a coincidence wasn't it considering they were into sodomy and all that garbage what happened to Rome it fell now you can have there's a roller coaster of where you get into wickedness and then you and then you then you basically peek out at that and there has to be a choice is made either destruction is going to happen or you know what there's going to be a righteous remnant and something's going to happen to where you know it's going to be fixed because think about you know when you think about the golden ages and I know I'm kind of going rogue here these notes are just here for in case I need it but if you think about like and here's thing you don't want to look back in an age be like I wish I lived in the 1800s you know because you could look back and be like yeah but there was a civil war you know and there was there's there's bad things that are happening every I think that we're living in a great time to deliver right now okay and I used to look back and be like man I wish I was back when we you know we rode horses and you carried a sword and you know you had candles you know like I want to be a knight I want to be like Sir Robinson and you know anyway all that to say is that but then you have all these other things that go along with that don't really want to deal with okay because you think of all the stuff that we have and all the luxuries that we have and yeah once you lose that you may not want it but that being said is that think about you know like how wicked like you know Rome got think about the Dark Ages right and think about how wicked societies got to the point where there was pedophilia just on rampant there was homosexuality that's just going and we're talking about like major country like world countries like world empires that were like that then you go to like where you're in 1800s and you have like or the 1700 1600 1700 1800 and people are living a pretty I mean all in all you're living kind of like this righteous you know people are trying to go for religious freedom people want to live righteously they have righteous laws that happened after you had all the debauchery okay so don't think that it couldn't happen again you say well we'll never get back to a society that is based off the Bible you know what maybe not but I think it still can happen but I'm gonna preach as if it it can happen and will happen and you know what if it doesn't happen so be it but at least that there's someone that's gonna preach from the pulpit and say that's the way it should be that's the way God wants it to be that's how we should live our lives and you know what if the world wants to burn outside of that and so be it but in Matthew chapter 10 and verse 34 it's a parallel passage to Luke 12 I just want you to see that it says it in a little different manner but it's basically the same thing is the fact that that Jesus and I'm not I didn't come to give peace but rather division it says in Matthew 10 verse 34 says think not that I'm come to send peace on earth I came not to send peace but a sword for I'm come to set a man at variance against his father and the daughter against their mother and daughter-in-law against her mother in law and a man's foes shall be they of his own household he that love loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me and he that taketh not his cross and falls after me is not worthy of me he that falleth or findeth his life shall lose it and he that loses his life for my sake shall find it this is talking about being a disciple by the way you know what you want to be a disciple of Christ I'm not talking about being born again and being saved talking about being a disciple is that you have to love God more than anybody else in this world you have to take up his cross and follow him and if you don't do that you're not worthy to be his disciple okay and there's many passages along that but the idea here is that there's there needs to be a division you know mark them which cause divisions and and an offense is contrary to the doctrine which you have received and avoid them you know what if they're if people are going to set divisions that we're going to set divisions and the Bible is very divisive go to go to 2nd Corinthians chapter 6 2nd Corinthians chapter 6 and verse 14 it's interesting just recently you know how remember before when I started the church or when we started the church or before we even started the church home school was kind of like a you know like you looked at like oh you're going to join a convent or something like that are you Mormon like like you just kind of looked at like weird because you're going to home school nowadays it's kind of like that you say your homes going like yeah I I wish I could do that like it's not even taboo anymore mainstream they have mainstream conservative pundits saying that you should take your kids out of public school and home school that was not like that definitely a decade ago but I can't remember when that switch but it's been pretty recent that that switched and you know why it is because things are being polarized because most of the people that are teaching in public school today are a bunch of liberals a bunch of leftists that are teaching your kid a bunch of wickedness humanism socialism everything's you won't don't want your kids to know they're shoving it down their throats and saying don't tell your parents about it so I mean I had already chose that I wasn't going to send my kids to public school because you know what things have only gotten worse you know when my parents with that public school I don't know what it was like back then but when I went to public school yeah there was teachers that were fine and but then there was teachers that taught taught evolution and would teach humanism type stuff and they would try to shove stuff down your throat you know I remember being in college which by that point if you're in college and you're in you're an adult you know what you can you can deal with it you know you're in the world you're gonna have to deal with all that stuff in the world but I remember being in college and in a structural engineering class dealing with soil mechanics and the guys talking about evolution which is like what does that got to do with the bearing pressure of you know sandy clay you know not they just want to push that stuff down or I was in a structural analysis class and they're like you know what some people believe that man was given the knowledge of knowing what a simply supportive beam was from creation but other people believe which meaning like more educated people believe that some ooga booga caveman took a tree and put it over a ravine and boom they figured out what a simply supportive beam was I mean that kind of garbage is being done and it's just these little type of things that are trying to mean pushed into your head obviously I was saved and I thought I was looking at this person like you're an insane person right now it didn't bother it didn't like sway me one bit I'm like you're a moron you know like that's what was going through my head but you know what when you're dealing with four year olds five year olds six year olds seven year olds eight year olds they can they can mess with their minds okay and don't get me wrong people that are 18 19 20 can be messed with too okay especially if you have people that are unsaved that are getting in you know this stuff pushed upon them and they don't know what the truth is they don't know there's another side to the story so in second Corinthians chapter 6 and verse 14 it says be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers or what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness and what communion hath light with darkness and what Concord hath Christ with Belial or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel and what agreement hath the temple of God with idols for ye are the temple of the living God as God has said I will dwell in them and walk in them and I will be their God and they shall be my people wherefore come out from among them and be separate set the Lord and touch not the unclean thing and I will receive you and I will be a father unto you and you shall be my sons and daughters set the Lord Almighty so this is a very famous passage and obviously this is a lifetime to use for marriage right not being an equally yoke you want to marry a believer but just in general in life you want to be yoked up with people that are believers they're like-minded you know that they're not you know into wickedness and all that and what is this this is polarization isn't it don't you see polarization when you see righteousness unrighteousness you see communion you know what communion hath light with darkness okay so shall we be coming together on that you have you know the darkness of this world when it comes to all the wickedness is going on in this world from sodomy pedophilia adultery you know just all the wickedness that goes on in this world should we be trying to commune with that or we should be getting as far away from that as possible that should be polarized and then you get into the fact of obviously Christ with Belial that's a no-brainer you know Belial is just another name for the devil and it gets into the fact that it says come out from among them and be separate so when you think about being polarized what you talking about being separate would you say the North Pole and South Pole are separated I would say that's as bad as separated as you get okay that that is complete polarization and then you know it says I will be you know you shall be unto me be my sons and daughters set the Lord Almighty well yet what you have to understand with this is that when you get saved inwardly you're a child of God but if you're not walking in the new man then you're walking in that child of disobedience that child of wrath that flesh okay so if you want to walk around as a child of God then you need to be walking in the spirit and that means being separate from the world that means you know doing righteousness and not sinning right and obviously we all make mistakes and none of us are gonna be sinlessly perfected until we have new bodies but that's the idea there is that we need to be separate we need to not be commuting we're not coming together oh we're gonna find common ground no no you know back in the day you could think about like well we'll find common ground between these two policies over here but they're still like you know it's just a matter of opinion which will work better right that's the one thing of being finding common ground but finding common ground between capitalism and socialism no finding common ground between you know preserving a baby's life and not killing and murdering a baby and murdering babies on mass I'm not coming together I'm gonna stay right here okay I'm gonna stay as polarized as possible and you know what you know where I believe that line is at inception you know how do you know that the Bible that's how I know that because Mary conceived and she and she was gonna you know being a virgin she's gonna conceive virgins gonna conceive in the parallel passage or it when it's quoted in New Testament it says she shall be with child at conception it's a child at conception you're you're dealing with a new life and you may not like that you're like well I think it's implementation I don't really care what you think you know I have the Bible what do you got your thought process okay now that being said it says here in go to go to Luke I'm sorry Leviticus chapter 11 Leviticus chapter 11 it says that touch not the unclean thing so what are we talking about what we're talking about obviously in the New Testament we're talking about unclean as far as things that are wicked things that are you know that you shouldn't be doing as far as sins and all that stuff in Leviticus 11 I preach a whole sermon about chewing the cud and dividing the hoof and at the end here there's something that that's always stood out in verse 46 so Leviticus 11 46 says this is the law of the beast and of the fowl and every living creature that moveth in the waters and every creature that creepeth upon the earth to make a difference between the unclean and the clean and between the beasts that may be eaten and the beasts that may not be eaten see we don't do these dietary laws anymore that's been done away in Christ but they did represent something they represented the idea that you need to recognize what's clean and what's unclean you need to put a difference between those two things and it seems very simple right what's clean and what's what's unclean but in the world we live in we have people that can't even realize there's only male and female we're dealing with insane people today and you're not gonna find common ground with insane people you're like oh maybe we can change your mind you're not gonna change a psychopath's mind and good luck trying to change some insane person's mind now don't get me wrong there are people on that side that aren't insane and aren't psychopaths okay I'm not saying that like half our population is a bunch of psychopaths okay but what I'm saying is that you're dealing with you know just an insane mentality that's on that side and there's no finding common ground you know what that needs you know what the people that aren't insane and that aren't psychopath need a good kick in the pants they need tough love they need to be told that what they're doing and what they're saying what they're supporting is complete wickedness and it needs to be done away with and you know what I'm not gonna find common ground with anybody like that now in in the end times I want you to see something that the Antichrist there's something about the Antichrist okay because what we see most of time now we see the fact that people want unity right they want us to stop fighting it's like yes stop fighting when you agree with me I will be done agree with us and what the Bible teaches and we'll stop fighting what peace we know it's kind of like when she who's running furiously or he's driving furiously and they send ambassadors to him he said is it peace to you and he says what has down to do with peace as long as Jezebel and you know and the house of Ahab are you know with all their wickedness and he's basically running to take care of that okay and the idea is that you know what people are screaming for peace but there's not gonna be peace unless you get rid of the wickedness and you know what just agree with us and get on our side and then we'll be good but they're gonna say the same thing you know like when they say well we need to have peace we unite what they mean is we need to all agree with them not happening okay and you know what that line is being drawn in the sand you start going after our children I think that's the one line where finally Americans have woken up it's not the frog and warm water anymore that's being heated up really slowly you just try to turn on the blender and the frog is woken up okay you're like what am I doing in this water okay now in Daniel chapter 8 verse 23 dealing with the Antichrist here I want you to see something that's very important dealing with the wickedness you know how the devil works okay and in Daniel 8 and verse 23 it says in the latter time of their kingdom and when the transgressors are come to the fool a king of fierce countenance and understanding dark sentences shall stand up and his power shall be mighty but not by his own power that's because the dragon gives him his power we were kind of already covering that in Revelation now and he shall destroy wonderfully and shall prosper and practice and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people so that's talking about the saved Saints all that right verse 25 and through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand and he shall magnify himself in his heart and by peace shall destroy many and he shall also stand up against the prince of princes but he shall be broken without hand that's because Jesus is going to destroy him with the sword that proceeded out of his mouth and he's going to cast the beast of the false prophet into the lake of fire that's what that's talking about so what's his end gonna be but it says that he's going to come in peaceably I'm sorry it says it by peace shall destroy many and that phrase should kind of stick out to you be like he's gonna buy peace destroy people that seems to be an oxymoron right because there's a time of peace and time of war right but the idea is that wars are fought on the premise of peace aren't they right we want world peace so that means we need to go to war to have world peace that's the that's the premise is why we were in the war of terror you know the war against terror for how many you know for two decades or whatever is the idea of peace you want peace in the Middle East right so what do you do you destroy babies you drone innocent people you kill a bunch of people that shouldn't be killed in the process and have collateral damage because of peace and you know what in the end times not gonna be any different meaning this is that you're going to have the fact that how is the Antichrist going to come after the Saints with the moniker of we need peace and the way to have peace is get rid of those that oppose what they want okay and so by peace they should destroy men I go to Daniel chapter 11 verse 21 Daniel chapter 11 verse 21 so be careful when people are calling for peace and what they mean by that we want peace we want to take all your guns we're not going to force to take those guns away from you until they come with guns and take them away from you right I mean that's how they do it by force good luck doing that in America by the way every single time you have somebody that's running for office like we're going to take your ar-15 we're going to take your guns it's like they put their picture up at every gun store as the employee of the year because it literally causes everybody to just buy more guns you know how many people have come up to me and says I've never even shot a gun but I think it's time for me to get a gun I need a gun for self you know for self-defense and just constantly I have people like what kind of gun should I get and these people are just like people that would look at me because I'm always carrying and there's and you know I'll be in my office and be like well we know that something goes down you know Jason's you know carrying so but now it's like everybody's they they would look at that be like how you're kind of extreme there you know but now it's kind of and now they're like I think I need to be carrying too what should I get and every time you have someone that's like saying I'm going to take that I'm going to take this you know what it backfires on them so do I think that you're going to have gun confiscations in America maybe in the big cities okay because you have you know a bunch of people that already have all these gun laws and they can try to do that but good luck coming to West Virginia and trying to confiscate guns I mean people they just won't do it they just won't do it and the reasoning is is because think about when we went to World War two which I wasn't a lie then but let's just think about one of the things that Japan said you know was the fact that you don't want to go to war with America on their own ground because there's a gun between behind every blade of grass and it's the it's facts think about all these lockdowns that are going on in other countries right now like Australia what they do first they took away their guns try doing lockdowns like that and in America now they try to do lockdowns but you know what it's funny now that they're putting all these signs of it like oh you know even if you're vaccinated you still got to wear a mask and you just see everybody just walking in there without a mask because you know what we're done with this garbage and you know what it gets to a point where people are just like you know what I'm done with this and that's what our country needs to get to they need to be pushed so far that's just like you know what I'm done with it all because people are Christians be like wow you know I don't really agree with this automized but you know whatever they want to do they're not hurting me and then they go on and go on and go on and let them do their thing let them do the thing let them do their thing and then they're like they do a whole song saying we're coming for your children which we all knew was the case okay but they sing a whole song saying they're coming for our children they're recruiting our children and they're smiling like they're doing like a bunch of psychopaths they are and you know what you know what that did that caused people to say you know what I'm done with that I'm done with you I'm done with it all and you know what that's that's what needs to happen because you know what that's going to do is be like you know what instead of marriage let's look at Leviticus 13 right you're living as 2013 let's look at Leviticus 18 let's look at Romans 1 let's get back to actually where the line is drawn and you know what that will actually get our country back on track did I have you turn to Daniel chapter 11 the end chapter 11 verse 21 it says and in his estate shall stand up a vile person talking about the Antichrist here to whom they shall not give the honor of the kingdom but he shall come in peace ably and obtain the kingdom by flatteries this is where he's going to greet you know speak great swelling words of vanity and you know we're having man's persons at an advantage you know all that type of stuff dealing with how he's going to take it but he's gonna he's gonna come in peace ably notice of verse 24 it says he shall enter peace ably even upon the fattest places of the prom the province and so I don't want to get into too much detail with the Antichrist but those things you know when I think about how the Antichrist is going to come in I always think about how he's going to do it with peace he's going to destroy many and how he's going to with peace ably do it and he's going to do it with flattery and how you can see how the mainstream media which is the enemy of the people by the way okay I think that needs to be I mean most people know this right that when you're looking at the mainstream media they're just lying to you it's lying propaganda if you want to know what's not the truth look on the news okay but when you see that their premise is we need to all get together we just want to have peace again we just need to get back to normal we need to do this or that that means you need to get you know rid of this this this and this you need to do this this this and this how about don't tread on me because I'm a true born son of Liberty in America and I have the Word of God because where the Spirit of God is there is Liberty and you could take your shot and shove it you could take your wickedness and shove it and get out you know get off my wall if you will but all that to say is that when it comes to Christianity we need to draw that line okay politics out of the side you know what what needs to happen is that politics need to be aligned with the Bible you know what the the laws of our land need to be aligned with the Bible you're like oh that's a theocracy I'm not saying that we're looking for divine like spoken audible words from God to tell us what to do last I checked there was a whole book of judges and I don't remember God just speaking to every one of those judges telling them what to do no he had laws set up and he set up judges to fulfill those laws and he gave them the right to make those choices based off those laws and by the way it's the perfect law of Liberty so when did it become unperfect when they become unsuitable because when Christ rules and reigns for a thousand years guess how he's going to rule and reign based off those laws based off those moral laws that's what's going to happen so you know what eventually is going to be the case now the Bible says this about the Word of God the Bible says that the Word of God is a sharp two-edged sword says for the Word of God is is quick and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit of the joints and marrow and is a discernor of the thoughts and intents of the heart the Word of God divides and you know Bible says the study that show thyself approved unto God a man that needed not to be ashamed I'm gonna misquote that a workman that needed not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth and so the the Word of God needs to be divided into what's what's right and what's wrong right as far as like what should you do you think of Ecclesiastes chapter 3 there's a time of peace there's a time of war there's a time of love there's a time of hate you know what that takes discernment to know when you go each route okay and it's not a matter of just like everything's just one way and just do it that one way no it depends on the situation depends on who you're talking to it depends on what you're talking about so go to go to Isaiah chapter 5 I'm sorry Isaiah chapter 5 Isaiah chapter 5 and how about this you know it says that in in Hebrew chapter 5 for everyone that uses milk is unskillful in the word of righteousness for he's a babe but strong meat belonging to them that are a full age even them who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern between good and evil okay so our discern both good and evil so that's what we're talking about we're talking about rightly dividing what's good what's evil what's right what's wrong what's clean what's unclean and just on a basic level when it came to like the customary laws in the Old Testament how they know what was clean and what was unclean by the law the law was straight up say this is clean this is unclean so you have to go through the Word of God and say okay that's what's clean that's what's unclean but on you know outside of the physical animals and stuff like that you look at okay it's it's clean to be married and that marriage is honorable and all in the bed undefiled okay that's that's clean but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge that's unclean polarization like what's the difference between me living with my my uh you know my girlfriend or my boyfriend for 10 years I mean we're what's the difference between me living with them we're in the same house and all that and not being married difference is you're not married that's the difference one is righteous and honorable at all the other one is going to be judged by God that's the difference okay so that is something that you have to understand when it comes to the Bible and you need to know that hey there's a polarization there okay so in Isaiah 5 verse 18 says woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of Andy and and sin has as it were with a cart robe that say let him make speed and hasten his work that we may see it and let the council the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come that we may know it woe unto them that call evil good and good evil and put darkness for light and light for darkness that put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes and prudent in their own sight woe unto them that are might drink wine and men of strength to mingle strong drink which justify the wicked for reward and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him I listen there's nothing new under the Sun okay this was not just prophetic for 2021 right this has been going on since the beginning of time where you have people that are literally saying that good is evil and evil is good and sweet is bitter and bitter is sweet okay and it's it is insanity right I mean if you think about it like imagine if you had something that was like a you gave someone lemon heads right and you're like suck on that lemon head right there and be like and they're just like this is sweet you're like what it's not sweet sour right or if you gave someone like a cinnamon roll and be like this is bitter no it's not and get out of my church we're not liking cinnamon rolls no who doesn't like cinnamon okay you know but the idea is that when you think about it it's like if you drank salt water from the scene you're like this is sweet water right here right you'd be like you're you're insane what you're like you have COVID yeah I'm just kidding you obviously don't have any taste buds left but that's what is that it's literally we think of that as being insanity right you're just like how are you literally doing the opposite how do you think that's opposite how if you had all the lights off in here would you say it's it's this light in here now some people say that about me because I like I don't like a lot of light you know I like real light okay not this fake light stuff you know like all this you know fluorescent stuff you know gives me anxiety don't like it you know what I want like sunlight coming in but that being said is that if you are on a sunny day like it's dark out today like put them in the straightjack I mean like this person is insane person so that's what you're dealing with you're in dealing with insanity and the thing is in Acts chapter 2 like I said there's nothing new under the Sun meaning that you had people that thought this way and would teach this way and would try to push these type of ideals of something that's well what's another word for something that's opposite but backward right and notice what it says and in Acts 2 verse 40 it says and with many other words did he testify and exhort saying save yourselves from this unto word generation now what's unto what's toward mean well you're going towards something if you're going unto or you're going backwards right so what are you dealing with a backward generation right you're dealing with a generation that's completely backwards and that's what we're in today and when it comes to this do you really want to be communed with a backward unto or generation do you want to be coming together in moderation with them they're going so far off the cliff I mean how who could try to meet them in the middle but you know ask Christians we should never be trying to meet him in the middle I don't care if they were moderate if they were moderate let's say they were in the middle of where the right or you know you're you're dealing with Christianity righteousness the Bible and then you just had complete wickedness sodomy you know like sodoming a more over here right let's say you have these two areas if they were here I'm not meeting them in the middle if they're right here I'm not meeting them in the middle if they're right here I'm not meeting them in the middle I'm going to meet them where the Word of God meets them I'm going to be as polarized as this Bible right here I'm not going to meet them in the middle at all you know people you know be like well you know you need to be more open-minded I'm going to open in mind it is it the the words of this book right here and listen the Bible gives you Liberty but when it comes to doctrines when it comes to morality I'm as open in mind is what the Bible teaches on it and you know what I'm not going to meet you in the middle on it I'm not going to meet you in the middle on fornication I'm not going to meet you in the middle on adultery I'm not going to meet you in the middle on uncleanness I'm not going to meet you in the middle on murder I'm not going to meet you in the middle on all these seditions and variableness and all these different things that are the sins of the flesh I'm not going to meet you in the middle I'm going to be right here where the Bible stands on that and you can come meet me you can come meet us where God's at okay and listen obviously we all make mistakes I'm not saying that I'm perfect over here on the right but I'll say this is that where my stance is though is right here where the Bible's at it's going to be right there and you know what that's where you're going to be prosperous about you know the Bible says I have said the Lord always on my right hand because I've said the Lord always before me because he is at my right hand I shall not be moved you know what God's not meeting us in the middle when it comes to morality I have set the Lord always at my right hand meaning that he's right here and I'm holding on to him but you know what he's not going to be meeting in the middle and if I try to meet someone in the middle guess what I gotta let go of God I gotta let go of the Savior to go meet them in the middle and I'm not doing it so there's a passage in Ezekiel dealing with Jerusalem being judged or you know obviously Ezekiel is when they're in the captivity but it's before Jerusalem was burned down and Ezekiel is kind of that preacher that prophet that's basically prophesying the fact that it's going to be destroyed and you know because of you know all the stuff that went on with because you had Jehoiakim and you had Jeconiah and then you had Zedekiah and Zedekiah didn't listen and he ended up getting the whole place burned down all that but that being said is that there's an interesting thing to said here when it's talking about Jerusalem being judged and Ezekiel chapter 22 and verse 26 Ezekiel chapter 22 and verse 26 it says this it says her priests have violated my law so her is talking about Jerusalem a lot of times the cities will take a feminine pronoun there her priests have violated my law and a profane mind holy things they have put no difference between the holy and profane neither have they show difference between the unclean and the clean and have hid their eyes from my Sabbath and I am profane among them now what happened to Jerusalem after that is burned to the ground the temple was burned everything was taken out and until the after the captivity when they rebuilt the temple and rebuilt it I mean that's where you get into Ezra and Nehemiah where they're rebuilding everything but what was the reasoning they didn't put difference between the holy and profane they didn't put difference between the clean and the unclean and you know what America same thing's gonna happen for us you know what Jesus Christ is saying yesterday and today and forever the Lord is the same you know I'm the Lord I change not he's the same God in the Old Testament as he is in the New Testament if you don't believe me read Revelation because actually what's going to happen in the end is actually going to be even worse than what happened in the Old Testament when he poured out his wrath so that's what we're dealing with there now it's interesting also the fact that go to Exodus chapter 8 I just want to give you a couple examples of how God puts a difference between those that are righteous and those that are wicked Exodus chapter 8 and verse 23 and if you know this passage you're dealing with where he's plaguing Egypt right and it says in verse 23 and says I will put a difference between my people and I people tomorrow shall this sign be now I'm going to show you one of the plagues or you know the final plague if you will go to Exodus chapter 11 but if you remember these plagues you remember that one of them was darkness right there was darkness for three days darkness that could be felt but it said in Goshen there was light right talk about a stark difference between light and darkness you literally have darkness that can be felt in Egypt and then Goshen that's like adjacent to that white like just sun shining just completely light there complete darkness he puts a difference between the his people and and the people of the devil if you will and the thing is here is that we need to know that hey we need to put a difference between the clean and the unclean between the holy and the profane because if we do that and we stay on the holy and the clean side then God will put a difference between us and the rest of the world you want to be blessed by God you say well this whole world's you know going to hell in a handbasket this whole world is falling apart it's all we're getting burned down yeah but we don't have to worry about that if we're living righteous and we're doing what we should be doing God is going to take care of us he knows how to deliver the godly out of you know out of destruction and you know in Exodus chapter 11 dealing with how he's going to kill all the firstborn of Egypt it says in verse 7 there but against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue against men or beasts that you may know that the Lord doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel because it says he's going to destroy all the firstborn just for sake of time you can read that passage in your own time dealing with the fact that he's going to destroy all the firstborn even from the firstborn of Pharaoh but he's saying I'm doing this I'm going to put a difference and and you say well you know how does how does Egypt you know how does that apply to us well how about this in Revelation chapter 11 in verse 8 you don't have to turn there it says and their dead body shall lie in the street of the great city which is spiritually where spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt where also our Lord was crucified now where was our Lord crucified outside the gate of Jerusalem right so Jerusalem right now is considered spiritually Sodom and Egypt so you say well the Egyptians you know that's over there you know what spiritually speaking you know what our country is Sodom and Egypt and he's gonna he's gonna you know put a difference he's gonna judge it as so I go to Philippians chapter 2 the last thing we show you here what's the answer to this hey we live in a crooked and perverse nation we live in this untoward generation the answer is not to meet him in the middle the answer is to be as polarized as the King James Bible to polarize yourself with God and put yourself on that side in our country is getting more polarized as the days go on and I look at that as a blessing I look at that as a good thing you know people are like oh we need we need we're just so polarized we need to fix this no actually I'm saying go the other direction go the other direction I say to the left keep going keep going down that path and right you need to keep going you know the conservative pundits on there you know what you need to keep going why don't you actually read what the Bible says about sodomy why don't you read what the Bible says about you know all the different things that are you know in that that are the talking points today in America when it comes to abortion when it comes to sodomy when it comes to sexual immorality you know what read what the Bible says on that and why don't you align with that because they're going off the deep end why don't you go ahead and get over where God's at why don't you choose this day whom you will serve but as for me in my house we will serve the Lord and you know what that's where the line needs to be drawn and the more it's polarizes the more people are gonna be like you know what if I'm gonna make a choice if I'm gonna take that choice and I'm gonna make that stand you know what I might as well make the right stand I might as well take it all the way you know what if I'm gonna risk losing my job if I'm gonna let risk losing everything because I'm gonna take a stand or choose which side I'm gonna be on you might as well go all the way why would you try to just meet in the middle somewhere they're not gonna meet you there so in Philippians chapter 2 in verse 14 it says do all things without murmurings and disputings that you may be blameless and harmless the sons of God without rebuke in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation nation among whom you shine as lights in the world notice this holding forth the word of life that may rejoice in the day of Christ that have not run in vain neither labored in vain how do we shine as lights in this world with the word of life but the Word of God rightly dividing the word of truth by preaching you to preach the word be instant in season out of seed and reprove rebuke exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine in this time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine but you know what there are still people that wonder sound doctrine and our job is to find those people that will and you know what if our country ends up splitting I'm good with that my god you know I you know I I want to keep it the same as it is you know what sometimes there needs to be a split sometimes there needs to be a division you know what if they're not going to get on the righteousness side I don't want to be associated with them I don't know depending on where that split is I might be you know we may need to move somewhere you know I don't wanna be close to that border but again at the same time you know what God put a division between Goshen and Egypt and there was complete darkness on one side and complete light on the other you know what I guess I could just be right on that border I could be right there and then just watch it burn because that's exactly what would happen and I'm all for it you know that the idea of succession in our country I know it's been talked about will it ever happen who knows I'm not saying here you're like oh you know I'm prognosticator up here said that you know we're gonna split into two different countries I'm just saying what I'd like to see okay so you say well you know you know I want I want all the states to be American and I want to keep it that way I don't really give a rip about what what it even looks like as long as you have I don't care if there's one state that is righteous and the rest was wicked I don't care where that states at because God will bless that state to the point in that country so much that the rest of it we burning around it and God will bless that one country for being righteous okay but we need to stay polarized and don't let don't let conservatives tell you that we need to meet in the middle how's that worked out for you that's all I got to say about that you know how does that worked out for you you know what the Bible is very polarized we as Christians should be very polarized but we need to be on the right side we need to be on the side the polarization the pole that is righteous clean holy and of God let's end with word prayer the Heavenly Father we thank you for today thank you for your word and just pray to be with us as we go out soul winning later on and just be with us with the fellowship and Lord I do pray that many people in our country would stand up for the truth and that would see the wickedness that's going on and make a choice to stand for righteousness that we would be a light unto our nation to get as many people saved to get them into the Word of God and that we can have a righteous nation again and Lord just thank you for everything that you've given us and Lord we praise your will be done here on the earth we love you in parallel to use Christ name amen right they will come and sing one more song and that will be dismissed all right take your song books and turn to song number nine song number nine if you'll stand stand we'll sing away in the main away in a manger song number nine away in a manger no crib for a bed the little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head the stars in the sky look down where he lay the little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay the cattle are mowing the poor baby wakes but little Lord Jesus no crying he makes I love thee Lord Jesus
