It's online@tewronline.org Dr. Don Wilton I told you that you would save me will foster we know how many questions you have. Because you're asking them all the time and they say do you. The problem is I know how many questions you have because I you are asking them all the time together. We already people who have questions. I could share with you today. If it were possible if I was to break confidentiality which I would not I could share with you today, many questions that people have that I know about one can just imagine how many questions there. All that I know nothing of more you I I know of people who are saying, I don't know if my marriage is going to work anymore. What can I do about my marriage, my marriage is in trouble.

What can I do about.

I've got some people that I know that are saying. What can I do about my son, my daughter, what programs can I get them into how can I hope it how can I stop whatever it is that is going on about people who are asking questions about economics lot about sonically.

You know what is the will going to look like this year we got to see an economic upturn that we've just gone through Christmas season. They are telling us that retail took a good turn for the better. Some of the economic indicators all looking bit economists seem to be at. Maybe even just a little. What a little more optimistic than what they were, this time a year ago and looks like the economy may improve the maybe more jobs, but people are saying what am I going to do in order to provide for my family, going to do that. Where can I get a job. How many more resumes do I need to send.

I know people who have big health, you should we pray this morning in our prayer meeting early this morning for some of our people that we know that have gotten real health concern. What's next, what treatment should not take which doctors should consult do I need to go to a specialist. But what about my elderly parents how my going to take care what where shall I go next. I got people from every walk of life, asking every question of life, but my friends there off in inescapable questions that I want to share with you and I'm going to give you these for inescapable question and I'm going to try and tell you what God has to say about so here are the four questions number one what can I do.

That's the first question what can I do number two who cannot speak to number three. How can I know I'm a full where will I go.

I went on to these questions today. These off in escapable question number one what can I do not have that question. You have that Christian what can I do related to my marriage. What can I do related to my children.

One question that I have lost myself many times is what can I do about my health will concerned about helpful so let's pick on that one. From I'm concerned about mine.

I don't have any concerns, let me just say that I'm I just gone through all the rigmarole and I got an A+ and I'm very happy for that. They griped, but I think it's a good question. How can I keep well how can I be fit and healthy because I want to be productive. How can I turn the corner.

How can I how can I be vigorous in life and vibrant in what I do.

How can I feel will, but folks, there is one question that is inescapable and it's not what can I do about my health. What can I do related to my family over what can I do in order to get a job. The inescapable question, according to God's word is what can I do about my sin.

Some of us may need to get healthy again. Some of us may need to repair damage to our family.

Some of us may need to get a job, but all of us. Every single person according to the word of God has got.

I massive defying certain problem.

Romans chapter 3 in verse 23. The Bible says all have sin and come short of the glory of God.

What can I do about my sin.

You see, my friend.

The Bible tells us that God created man and woman back there at the beginning. Their names were Adam and Eve and he created them perfectly put them in the garden of Eden, and I sin against God. And because of this, God is righteous and holy had to cost them away from his presence forever and there was nothing that man could do about there is nothing that you can do about your sin, because all of us of sin and come short of the glory of God and I'm here today to remind you that the only difference between the best of us in here and the rest of their mouth they is the grace of God.

Amen. What can I do about my sin problem leads automatically to the second inescapable question who cannot speak to the folks there are many people we can speak about the walk cannot do problems that we have.

I got a lot of people I can recommend to you. If you are struggling in your marriage. There are many wonderful capable family and marriage counselors.

You can go and speak to. If you're struggling with your children. There are many people who have already brought up the children read their sons and daughters.

There are many wise people in our company that that can parse things on that can help those of us who need wisdom and counsel their wonderful citations and agencies. If you run into difficulty. There are many different places people that you condone speak probably the person I love to speak to more than any other is my wife. She's my best friend so I can go to Karen. We talk about things she comes to me when it comes to my own health blog gave me John Langford.

I love to be around John Langford because he inspires me with my health. So I go to the Nautilus fitness center. That's what I do. I went on Friday. I don't like it but I go and I have to force myself to go and I remember those years ago when I was so struggling with my health battling because I battle with a battle with the dog back in with my help with my weight all my life I look at food I put on weight.

Some of you looking at me will, wise and an old race but some of you can go and eat, and even if you don't put on a dime. You don't put on a pound you you it doesn't. Folks, there are some of us we just snuff that stuff and we put on weight and evidently I do a lot of sniffing and so do some of you, the more I look around here. I just love food you got a problem with that chocolate cake and a Diet Coke to make me feel better.

The folks it's a discipline.

I remember going to John Langford saying dear John, you know, help me someone I could speak to that could help me and it's a discipline folks. I try to go three times a week, unlike some of you are called schedule that I cannot save this time, this time because I'm a foster people don't operate according clocks. If any of you ever notice that it's one of the interesting things about the world I have never met someone who died at an appropriate time. Never will had a baby at the appropriate time or had a need at the appropriate time when it was convenient for everybody and I love that's what God's gift so I it's not a matter of will.

Yes I'm just going to cut back on I go when I can't but I discipline us in three times I've kicked it up one year. This is my first anniversary one year every week minimally three.

I spoke to someone who could help and I but so far I'm just telling you folks, if you see me on a treadmill. When I take one step my stomach doesn't slap some fall comes back up and smacked me right in the March and knocks me flat out right there at the Nautilus fitness center. The problem is I look out not see half my congregation getting slapped and knocked out at the same time.

Folks who cannot speak to you. What about my health to feel better that's easy who cannot speak that's easy folks I can go to my wife. I can go to John Langford. I can go to my doctor, I conducted my friend.

I can go to my fellow minister, but when it comes to my sin there is only one person that I can speak to and he is not is Jesus all across America today people are recognizing that they don't have peace with God and all across America today.

There are people say I need to have peace with God, but by speaking to the wrong people don't go. Cannot help you with your sin problem. Your bank balance cannot help you with your sin problem cannot help you live, cannot help you. Plastic cannot help you with your sin problem. But Jesus Christ can.

That's the key. Jesus Christ can change our sin problem. Forgive the interruption will be back with the rest of today's teaching with Dr. Don Wilton in just a moment as he insisted I mention this to you it's because he cares he wants and I were here to talk and pray with you 24 hours a day.

The Bible tells us in John chapter 14 and verse six Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life no man can come to the father but by me. I point you to Jesus today. What can I do about my sin problem who cannot speak to only Jesus, the Bible says when you come to him and you repent of that sin, you acknowledge that soon you can face Texan to him.

The Bible says because Jesus Christ is the son of God because Jesus Christ paid the sacrifice shed his blood for your sin and for my because Jesus Christ is the only one that has the capability of the authority of Almighty God to forgive our sin. He's the one you need to speak to. I point you to Jesus. What that leads me to the third inescapable question.

How can I know if I recognize a broader sin problem because all of us of sin and I go to Jesus because he's the only one that can do something about.

How can I know that I'm forgiven me tell you how you can know folks, the Bible says in one John chapter 5 in verse 13 that these things have been written to those of you that receive eternal life so that you may know that you know that you know that you know that your name is written in God's book and have there are two fundamental ways in which you can know folks, let's be honest you're okay.

I'm using myself as a magnificent example in your getting signed braced one year ago I made a resolution to try and start getting a little bit better than what I was I ice I sat down I see you know I but are but one and about to have full grandson. I want to be a sloppy old no good granddaddy. I looked at this beloved congregation, and I said you know this congregation.

I love these people and this place I don't want to become a preacher.

That's just one big old sloppy no what kind of example is that some I get telling you folks, that on this incredible superhuman thing I know some people like Harry and others consider me to be magnificent. I better get off the subject that's not what I'm saying, folks, I brought so much further to go but I'm trying to do something about.

But when it comes to my sin problem. What can I do about my sin problem and I speak to the only one who can address that problem. Jesus Christ and I do what he tells me to do, by faith, trusting him as my Savior.

How do I know that my sin problem is taken care of because the Bible tells me so I hold to what God sees in the Bible says that by his spirit. I am a firm in his hand. I am placed in the palm of his hand, and no one will pluck me out of his hand and through his word. I am given the continual and constant reassurance that I could know that I know that I know that I know that my sins are forgiven and that one day when I died and I'm going to heaven to be with him.

By the way I wrote a book about 10 years ago called totally secure. Write it down if you don't have that book I wrote that book, Dr. Billy Graham, my friend and mentor wrote the full word for it. Introduction totally secure, totally totally secure.

Get that book go to the web office get totally secure. That's why I wrote it, it's the most simple reading you've ever read in your life I'm not and I wrote back from God's word so that you can put something in your hand that comes from the Bible that can answer this inescapable question cannot know how can I know here I'm in this world I lose my job. I'm diagnosed with cancer of the disobedient children.

My marriage is on the rocks. I'm battling every walk of life. I'm not looking for maybe folks we are living in a moment, this world in which our emotions are called up and all being tossed around like the tornadoes of life are wreaking havoc upon the emotion of the American citizen today. But God's word stand sure what can I do about my sin problem. Who can I speak to his name is Jesus out and I know through this burden through his word. But there's one final question inescapable question. Where will I go everybody wants to know where you gonna go. Cannot cannot really say something folks just listen carefully before we cut you gonna die someday. Tomorrow will be my third and fourth. Maybe Fitzhugh just in our church over the loss, six, seven, where will you wear Monica folks I can go to John Langford he can write me all the prescriptions he can get me and they bring all kinds of gyrations and exercise. I could go to the Nautilus fitness center. 10 times a week to stop me from dying Mary Kay this year could sell $5 billion worth of product. It's not going to stop you from its inevitable. So the question everybody wants to know in America where will I go yes what Jesus said in John chapter 14, he said, let not your heart be troubled you believe in God you believe also in me.

In my father's house there are many mansions if it were not so I would've told you. I go to prepare a place for you and if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again receive you on the myself, so that where I am there. You will be also see folks you you looking just Don Wilton you all looking at me I'm a sinner saved by the grace of God engaged in the battlefield of life. I love food, love my grandsons my children my church.

I love America, love to be alive. I love everything about it but I just want you to know Jesus Christ is in my heart.

I'm sorry if I disappoint you. Sometimes I can't help that I'm a Cinnabon nature and the support you, you looking for a perfect pasta you need to go look somewhere else on the archangel is a good one seen none of us can ever claim folks what you can say is what I can say be I can know that on that one day one day when Honda Jesus would come back that I'm going straight to him. Can you say that since Dr. Don Wilton teaching and preaching from the book of Romans today on this message for inescapable question is Dr. Don reminds us of his assurance, his knowledge he knows that he knows that no that he's going straight to heaven if you die right now.
