Main passage Psalms 117
Transcript
I think for some people, that was more reading than they do in a week, what we just listened to. And so I hope if you're here and you want to go out evangelizing, I hope that this was exciting for you. Thank you. Due to the fact that we're a little outside of my outline for time, I'm not going to have any kinds of breaks. but if you need to get up and use the restroom, go ahead.
If you need to get up and smoke a cigarette, just stay here. That'll be maybe my last joke. So, something you notice, when we were listening to the Scriptures and reading the Scriptures, that there was a lot of things, I noticed it crossing over. the different authors of the Bible saying the same things and different passages And it was very enjoyable Are you leaving Yeah I got to go Oh thank you so much for coming Dana Thank you And thank you Vicki too I know Vicki and Eileen and my wife I know they'd be embarrassed if I made a big deal out of it, but I thank you for coming, and thank you to Aaron for helping, and Bailey helped, too.
I think it's a real blessing. I have a friend that pastors a church, and they don't have a pianist at all. He says it's really hard to sing. He said they tried recorded music once, and the recording couldn't slow down or speed up with the people. So that's a real blessing, and I'm grateful. Tonight, my message, I actually grabbed the paper because I named it after I made it.
The name isn't that important to me usually, but I called it The Heart That Loves Sinners. and we listened to a little bit of Paul's heart tonight when we were reading we listened to David's heart and John prophecy but I wanted to talk about the heart that loves sinners is my title I going to talk about the Apostle Paul And I not going to probably teach you anything new tonight And just like nobody heard a new song tonight probably, and nobody heard a new scripture you hadn't read, I'm not going to teach you anything new, I don't think. I don't have any in-depth Greek analysis that my Bible software did or anything like that. But I want to talk about some things from the Scripture about the Apostle Paul.
And my hope is that it will cause you to think about your heart. and that if you need to have your heart changed which we all do to some extent but that in particular for those of us going out tomorrow that our hearts will be right and for those of you that are sending us out people who are sending us out I mean in a very real sense my wife needs to be prepared for me not to come home Right? At the same time, we don't expect that in America as frequently as maybe some countries or in different Bible times. But it is a possibility, and that's the heart attitude that not just the people going out have to have.
It's we're dying to self and we're taking up our cross and we're willing to give up for Christ. But so I'm going to I'm going to dig in. I'm going to I'm actually going to try to go a little bit fast because it's a small group. And and I wanted I don't want to be here too late with this part. I want to be able to do the other things we have planned. So but if I go too fast, just raise your hand.
Say you missed something or that's fine or you didn't hear me. and that's fine. But I was thinking about the Apostle Paul and I was thinking about if you were going to write his resume.
