Well this morning I was going to, I've been on the subject of the many wonders of the world. Actually they're unrecognized wonders. Things that God created, the many wonders that mankind ignores. Some day God will use all of His creation to judge mankind. He will use every element in the earth to judge mankind. We're going to take a look at that in the coming weeks. Last week we took a look at the life-giving blood. And I think this morning we're going to have to continue that somewhat. I wanted to get away from that and go and move on, but just can't seem to do it. But in Genesis chapter 2, verse 7, God breathed life. You don't have to turn there if you don't like. But God breathed life in the Adam and the life that He breathed in the Adam was the blood. And the blood is the light. Everything is in the blood. All vitamins, minerals, protein, everything is in the blood. Without the blood, there's no life when your blood stops flowing, you're dead. Someday my blood will stop flowing, someday I'll be dead. If your blood is red, it's because there's oxygen in it. Oxygen makes the blood red when the blood gets to the lungs by the time it passes through the entire body. It's almost a bluish color because all the oxygen has been depleted and distributed throughout your body. So your life is definitely in the blood. In Genesis chapter 3, verse 21, God made coats of skin for Adam and Eve. They made their own coats out of fig leaves or some kind of a leaf, and that doesn't work. That's a type of self-righteousness. It doesn't work. When I close myself in my own righteousness, it doesn't work. We have to be clothed in God's righteousness, and so God killed an animal, shed the animal's blood to clothe, Adam and Eve, that's the first place in the Bible where we have a type of the substitution for our sins. According to Dr. M. R. D. Han, there's something in the Bible called the Law of First Mention. Do I know what that is? Vents. Yes. The Law of First Mention is the first place in the Bible where they talk about a certain subject, the first place in the Bible where we have the mention of a substitute for our sins as in In Genesis chapter 3 verse 21, when God slew an animal and sacrificed the blood of that animal and clued Adam and Eve in his own righteousness. And then in Genesis chapter 4 verses 10 and 11, we have Abel whose blood cried out to God from the ground. You think the blood isn't important to God, it certainly is, for the life is in the blood. And then in Genesis, verse 11, and the earth opened up her mouth to receive his blood. Blood is important every time someone sheds blood. God is in there, and he doesn't like it sometimes he calls for it. But whenever there's blood mentioned, God is in charge of the whole thing. Blood is important to God. There are three things concerning salvation, and you can find this in most all of MRD hot writings. The law, first of all, salvation must be of the Lord. Number one, you can't acquire your own salvation, you can't work for it, you can't earn it. The priests can't forgive you, the Virgin Mary can't forgive you. There's some dead sync. There's only one way to get saved, and that's by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ's salvation is always of the Lord. Number two, it must be by the death of an innocent substitute. When God slew the animal and closed Adam and Eve, that animal was absolutely innocent. In the Old Testament they always killed a lamb or a goat, and made an offering. It was always an innocent animal. I thought about sacrificing my wife's dog, but he's perfectly innocent, and I can't do that. No no response. And the third thing it always first of all it must be by the Lord and it must be the death of an innocent substitute. And the third thing is it must always be by the blood. Must always be by the blood. By the way I just thought of something turn over through early Hebrew chapter 10. I wish I hadn't thought of it. I'll never get through with this here if I don't. Maybe. Okay. In Hebrews chapter 10, we have a little word here. The word is never. Look in verse 1, if you will. Hebrews chapter 10, verse 1 and verse 10, for the law having a shadow of good things to come and not the very image of the thing of the things can never, with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually, make those who come to it perfect. Your Bible may have another word there, but the word is perfect, but the word never, I want you to look at, and the word never comes from a Greek word which is kind of hard to say. It's Udi Pope, and it means not even at any time, never at all. All the sacrifices that anyone made and all the things that anyone did with any other kind of blood, other than the blood of Jesus Christ, is never takes away sins. And the Old Testament, when Moses and all the nation of Israel offered sacrifices under God, those things never took away sins. The only thing that takes away sin is the perfect blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. You cannot offer anything other than the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Notice the word, never, which means, not even at any time, never at all. Looking verse 10, if you will, by which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all, and every priest stands at daily ministering and offering often the same sacrifices which can never take away sins. You ever go to a church where a priest or somebody else stands up in front of the church and tells you that he is offering this or that for your sins? You know what the Bible says? Never. No, never. Not at any time. Never at all. Every priest stands at daily ministering and offering often the same sacrifices which can never take away sins. Well, what is it that takes away sin? If the sacrifices don't do it, look in verse 4, chapter 10. For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins. Wherefore, then he comes into the world. He say it's sacrifice and offering them what's not. But a body has now prepared me. The only thing that can take away sins is the perfect blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Isn't that amazing? And then we have, I remember a oftentimes talking to people and they say, well, I had a couple of people in particular say, well, I believe they were saved in the Old Testament by the law and offering sacrifices. Now, your Bible ignorant, if you believe that because the Bible says, those things never take away sins, never, not even at any time, never at all, never take away sins. The only thing that'll do it is the blood of Jesus Christ, the perfect blood. In Matthew chapter 27, verses 3 to 6, Judas said, I have taken innocent blood, or rather he said, I have betrayed innocent blood. And then in Romans chapter 1 and 2, turn over there for you. We'll cover a couple of verses here, and then we'll get on with what I really want to get on this morning. But I kind of go off track. I just wanted to point that out. you will make some notes in your Bible there in Romans or in Hebrews chapter 10. Someday God will judge the world, He will use the world to judge themselves. All the evolutionists I was reading in a book that I got from Linda gave me a book on evolution a big thick thing and there's a thing in there about a bird, what's it called, the Melee bird in Australia. In this bird, digs a six-foot-holt, six-foot-long, and three-foot deep-holt. It's called a melee sparrow or something like that. Anyhow, he digs a hole, it's amazing, six feet long, and three feet deep. And this is an Australia where it's extremely hot. And then he fills the hole up with vegetation. And then it rains, and the vegetation, of course, begins to heat up. And then he mates with the other bird, the female bird, and she lays her eggs in this hole, and then he covers it up with dirt and sand, and he's got a beak that acts like a thermometer. And he sticks his beak, and after she lays the eggs, he covers it up, and he sticks his beak in the ground and takes temperature every few minutes, where I think it was like three months, every few minutes, and if it gets too warm, he takes sand away, or he puts sand on top, whatever, but the temperature cannot vary one degree. I said, wow, well who taught that bird to do that? Do you think he evolved? I wondered, did he evolve into that? What do you think may be God created that bird? The evolutionist would like to think he evolved, but there's too many amazing things going on there. And then when the eggs hatch, they crawl out of the hole and they fly away and then they live, they're never nurtured by a mama dead again. They just fly away. And then when they become adult birds, they go through the same process. Well, who taught them to do that? When mama dead, because as soon as they came out of that big hole, they flew away and started running their own life. Do you think they really evolved? Or maybe God is in charge. Well, I think God is in charge. Romans chapter 2, if you will. Just a few verses here. Therefore, verse 1, thou arting an inexcusable old man, whoever, whosoever, thou art that judges, for wherein thou judge us another, thou condemn us by self, for thou that judge us do with the same thing. Go ahead and that's the truth. But am I allowed to judge? Oh, yes, I am. But I have to judge according to righteous judgment. I have to judge according to the word of God, the Bible. If I don't judge according to this Bible, if I judge according to my own self-righteousness, then I judge wrong. But God has a right to judge everything and everybody. If you realize that you never hear a scientist talk about the blood very much, you know why? Because there's so many things about the blood that they just don't understand. They just don't get it. And yet, the youths, you every month go a hospital and have your blood taken out. You know, they can tell you what's wrong with you just by taking out your blood. They can tell you if you've got this problem, if this disease, they can tell you if your blood sugar's low or high, if you need to go on, they can tell you. They can tell you if you've had a heart attack or a stroke just by checking your blood. It's amazing. No wonder God said, well, the life is in the blood. And yet mankind says, we evolved. There is no God. I was watching TV the other day, and I saw a scientist on TV said that they created lights. He said they created a life form. I don't know exactly what he's talking about, but I'll tell you, I honestly think when man gets to the point where he can literally create some kind of life. I think the end is about ready. Because God said in the beginning, God created. But when man begins to think that he can actually create, then I think they're in trouble. And God will really judge him. Verse three. Oh, verse two, but we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them who commit such things. You know, one way God's going to judge with truth, with truth. And thanks to God, this This old man that judges them who do such things and do us the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God, or despise us thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and long suffering, knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance. And then on down the next verse, but after thy hardness and impentant heart treads yourself and to thy self, wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God. what? There's one thing for sure judgment is coming isn't it? You know we live our life and we think uh well I haven't been judged yet. Well you might not think so but you certainly have and if you've trusted Christ as your Savior and put your faith and trust in His blood, yes walk. You've passed over the ultimate judgment. I'd like to show you a couple of verses in Revelation and then I want to go to book a song for about a time this morning. That's where I really wanted to go, but I haven't got there yet. I really wanted to go there. That's where I should have went. But all these things seem to happen. I don't know. Revelation chapter 1, verse 5, if you will. And from Jesus Christ, who was the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the the earth unto him that loved us and washed us from our sins in his own blood. Now you probably have a thought about that verse too much, but I want you to look at the word own, his own blood. Is it well? So what? Everybody has their own blood. No, no, no. Not really. You know, my blood came from my parents, and their blood came from their parents, and their blood came from their parents all the way back to Adam, but Jesus Christ had His own blood. The blood of God, separate from humanity, perfect, sinless, innocent blood. You ever read a verse like this once in a while, just look at one word. His own blood. How many times do you have to think of that word? His own blood, not human blood, not His mother's blood, not His father's blood, His own perfect innocent blood. Now then, if you ever had trouble in your life and you want to overcome it, you know how you overcome trouble in your life, turn over to Revelation chapter 12, if you will. In Revelation chapter 12, verse 10, we are told that, well, let's read that verse, Revelation chapter 12, verse 10, and I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now is come salvation and strength and the kingdom of our God God and the power of His Christ. For the accuser of our brethren is cast down to accuse them before our God day and night. This takes place in the middle of the seven-year tribulation. Satan will be cast into the earth out of the heavens, out of the atmosphere, literally cast to the earth. The accuser, he is your accuser, and when you have a problem in your life, given almost always bet that Satan is behind it. But guess what? In the next verse, you know how you overcome Satan and that problem? And they overcame him, Satan, by the blood of the Lamb. And by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto death. You overcome all things by the blood of Christ. overcome death, eternal death, by putting your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, you have eternal salvation through His blood, and then as you go through your daily Christian life, you overcome on a daily basis by the blood of Christ. You ever think about how important the blood of Christ really is? One more place. First John chapter 5 if you will. And then I'll finally get on with what I really want to get on with this morning. John chapter 5, verse 7 and 8. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost, and these three are one. If anyone ever tells you that Jesus Christ is in God, taking the first John chapter 5, verse 7, if you will, Jesus Christ is God. God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit, are one. And in verse 8 there are three that bear witness in the earth, the Spirit, the Holy Spirit, and the water which is the Word of God, the Bible, and the blood. And these three agree in one. Do you see how important the blood of Christ really is? It's the theme of the Bible. It certainly is a bloody book, isn't it? Now, if you will, turn over to the Psalms chapter 93. We want to look at it just a few verses and Psalms here, 93 through 98, just a few verses. God's judgment is coming. Is it not coming up on the whole world? He's going to be going to judge the world. And as a matter of fact, at the Battle of Armageddon, the blood is going to flow about four feet deep in the entire Valley of Magito, 600 miles long. That's pretty long, isn't it? The blood that man rejected of the Lord Jesus Christ, their own blood will flow. will flow that deep in the valley as says as high as the horse's bridal well that's about that deep isn't it that's what a bridal comes to on horse right about that deep that's a lot of blood that's a lot of human blood you know something you reject the Lord Jesus Christ you will have a bloody bloody judgment coming someday in through the book of songs here gods judgment is coming and how many times you ever look at the world and say boy that wicked soul, and so he just seems to prosper. Well, his judgment is coming someday, and it's all based on two things, the Word of God and the blood of Christ. Every judgment is based on two things. The Word of God, which is the truth and the blood of Christ, that's where the judgment is going to wind up. And verse 1, the Lord reigneth, He is clothed with majesty, the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith he had girded himself. The world also established, established that it cannot be moved. Guess what? Next verse, Diatrone is established of old, thou art ever blasting. Guess what? God created the world, the universe, everything in it. He has established it, and it cannot be moved no matter how hard man tries. The evolutionist said, well, we don't believe in God, we think man evolved, and now we're going to try to create life and we're going to do this, and we're going to, no, no, God established it, you can't change it, it is the way it is. One of these days, this world is just going to explode, and we'll probably get on that next week, I hope, and you'll see how easy it is, the world is exploding. By the way, I was reading this book I was telling you about, and the evolutionist says that The world was created from a big bang, we'll go on that probably, maybe. And hydrogen had a part of it. And you know what? I don't know if you know anything about hydrogen. But you know what oxygen does, don't you? You mix oxygen with a settling. You know how hot it gets? Pretty darn hot. Yet God takes hydrogen and oxygen and mixes them together and makes water. That's a miracle, folks. that's an absolute miracle, just can't happen. But anyway, the evolution says, well, we believe the world cried from a big bang and all the hydrogen exploded. Well, guess what? If the hydrogen exploded, then every last bit of hydrogen was exploded, mixed with the oxygen, there would have been such a big explosion, there would be no universe, no earth, no humanity, no nothing, the hydrogen would have just burned everything up. If anybody believes that, you've got to be an absolute fool. The hydrogen did not explode and create what you and I see today. God created it. He established it. On down to chapter 94, if you will, 94 songs. O Lord, God, to whom vengeance belongeth. O God, to whom vengeance belongeth. Show thyself. Notice David said that twice, God, to who vengeance belongs. By the way, it doesn't belong to you and me. It's not up to me to bring vengeance upon this earth or bring vengeance upon Mr. Al Gore who I just love completely or bring vengeance upon all of those who such as Ted Turner who made the statement that the happy humanity ought to be killed to make room for the rest of the world. He actually said that. Did you know that, Mr. Ted Turner? Well, guess what, Teddy? Benjitz is coming up on you one of these days, Buster. And God's going to do it. I remember Ted Turner said, well, what good would it do to go to heaven? There's no beer up there. Oh, yeah. Well, when you go to hell, you won't get your beer, Teddy. It'll be hot, and you'll be thirsty, and you'll wish you had a beer. But you won't get any down there, either, you jerk. You're a smart man, Ted Turner is. Verse two. Yeah, look who you got that right. I'm not too fond of Jane. Are you? No. Verse two lifts up by cell without judge of the earth render a reward to the proud. Lord, how long shall the wicked? How long shall the wicked triumph? Well, they're going to triumph until God comes back and judges this crazy world. Probably pretty soon and right in the middle of the seven-year tribulation, and God is really going to judge him. And hopefully I'll get on that next week after I get through to call his other stuff. How long shall they utter and speak hard things and all the workers of an equity boson self? You know what reminds me of? Reminds me of a group of scientists sitting in a room trying to prove that many balls. That's what reminds me of. It started all the way back in Great Britain had a meeting at Oxford when all the great scientists and all the great thinkers got together and took Charles Darwin and said, you know what, Charles, we're going to accept your book and we're going to promote it, and that's going to be our Bible, and there's nothing you can do about it, world, and that's where we're at today. You ever try to argue with an evolutionist? You might as well hang it up. There you go, actually the evolutionary thing I've got to take is started with philosophers. One of the men who started the evolutionary thing was the scientists. They were philosophers, and they'd sit around thinking and philosophizing. And they'd think about it, and they'd think about it, and they'd come up with this theory, then they'd write it down. And then after it was written down, it became a law. Beware of a philosopher. I just thought I'd let you know, though, I have a doctorate in philosophy. I wish I took another route, but whatever, anyhow, they break in pieces by people, O Lord, and afflict by inheritance. Verse 12, on down here, if you will, bless it as a man whom thou chastest, O Lord, and teaches him out of by law, guess what, folks, if you carry a Bible, or if you have a Bible in your possession, or if you own a Bible, guess what God said, you are blessed. And every once in a while things don't go very good for you. Consider the blessing and what God's doing, he's teaching you something. He's growing you up, he's making you strong. Things don't always go good because if they did it you wouldn't be strong. You just expect it. You'd expect things to be perfect. And then when things went bad you'd say, well God you forsake me. I'm never going to read your Bible. No, no, no. a spiritual spanking occasionally. It's good for you. It might make your butt hurt, but it's good for you because the Lord loves you, and you're being blessed. You know those who reject God and those who reject the power of the blood and those who reject all of God's miracles will never be chastened of God until it's too late, when it's absolutely too late. You know, in the Bible and rebel in Matthew chapter 7, there are a group of people who say to the Lord, Lord Lord didn't I prophesy in your name and didn't I do many mighty works in your name, didn't I perform miracles, Lord says to them, Depart from me ye cursing into everlasting fire, I never knew you, that word never is the same word we saw in Hebrews and means no, not at any time ever at all. No, they didn't lose their salvation, they were never saved in the first place. They were just a bunch of self-righteous idiots like Benningham trying to make everybody think they're perfect. What a sad thing. Anyway, back to the Bible. Verse 15, we're going to skip some verses. I'm going to try to cover a lot of territory here in a short time, but judgment shall return unto righteousness, and all the upright and hard shall follow it. Who will rise up for me against the evil doers, or who will stand up for me against the workers of aniquity and then on down to verse 21, or verse 20, shall the throne of aniquity have fellowship with thee who frame of mischief by all law. Now pay attention to this next verse and then we're going to close with another verse it. Just hit me before I started, verse 21, they gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous and condemn the innocent blood. who that is. Jesus Christ. Nothing is changed, hasn't? Whenever you get time, read the rest of these verses in the 93 through 98 and verse 98 ends with verse 9 before the Lord for he he come us to judge the earth. How do you want to judge it? Well, by the righteous by the innocent blood that they shed, the innocent blood that the world shed he will use as part of the judgment of the world. To judge the earth with righteousness, shall he judge the world and the peoples with equity. Now then, turn over to the book of Ecclesiastes, the very last chapter, the book of Ecclesiastes, and then we'll close with this. I just put my bulletin that I put notes on and everything in here, and when I opened it up, this is where I opened it up to this morning, quite accidentally. Verse 13, Ecclesiastes, the very last chapter Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter. I don't know how many times you've read through the Bible, but God often says here is the conclusion, or here is the sum. God always sums everything up so that it's very simple and very clear, easy to understand. Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter. By the way, let me just say this, I want you to know this, let me point this out if I may, when Solomon wrote Ecclesiastes, or when he wrote about Ecclesiastes, he was in a backslidden condition. He had too many wives, too many confidants, they took his mind away from the Lord, and he served their gods, and he made sacrifices, and he was in a backslidden condition. When he came back to the Lord, then he wrote Ecclesiastes concerning his old backslidden condition. And then he summed the whole thing up concerning the world and everything in it. Hear God keep his commandments for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work in judgment with every secret thing, whether it be good or whether it be evil. Guess what? You cannot hide from God, can you? Everything you do, everything you say, will be made revealed and the world that rejects God and accepts everything else. God will judge. And that day they will say, boy, why didn't I open up my eyes? Why didn't I see the God that created all these things? Why didn't I see the God that created the air, the sun, outer space, the blood? the complex blood. Why didn't I see the God that created blood and shed his blood on the cross? Why didn't I see that? Well, if you're here today, I hope you have, and I believe most of you have. If you ever have any trouble in your life, if you ever have a problem, just remember, you have overcome every problem by the blood of Christ. As somebody once said there's only a problem if in fact the problem actually exists. I don't know how that works but if you trusted Christ as your Savior I hope you have. The blood of Christ covers all sins and keeps you safe. You will never have to worry about coming in to God's judgment ever again. Here's a blood of Christ. Let's have word of parable close. There's a word we thank you for all things especially the blood of Christ that he shed for us the perfect sinless blood and then Lord we thank you for putting it all in the Bible so that we can't get it fouled up and twisted and perverted. It's there, it's clear, and it's the truth. You created all things, you sustain all things. If you didn't we would just blow up and explode. And dear Lord, we just thank you for the blood of Christ and your word in Christ's name. Amen. Okay. Thank you very much.
