Armageddon

After visiting where consecutively going through the book of Revelation is the last book in the Bible and that we come this morning to Revelation chapter 16 and Revelation.

There are seven seals, seven trumpets and seven bowls. The seven trumpets are contained in the seven seals and the seven bowls are contained in the seven trumpets of you been coming over these months. I hope you got that.

If not, I really have failed so I keep putting up that overhead.

There was we come to Revelation chapter 16 we come to the last series of judgments. What is happened so far the Church of Jesus Christ of enraptured to be with the Lord forever. And then there comes in this world is.

Called the tribulation when the wrath of God and the judgment.

God falls in this world as we see with the seven seals in the seven trumpets and know the seven bowls. The seven bowls that were going to think of from Revelation 16 contain the wrath of God – God's wrath. God's judgment is being poured out on the earth at the end of the tribulation. The seven plagues contained in the seven bowls may remind you if you know your Bible of some of the plagues of Egypt.

Remember before the Israelites were delivered from Egypt under the leadership of Moses, God judged Egypt with the various plagues and there are some similarities between the seven bowls and the 10 legs is also some comparison between the trumpet judgments and the bowl judgments.

Now there is a view of you. I don't agree with that. We should never mention the judgment of God that we want to hear about the love of God. We want to hear about the compassion of God. We want to hear about the forgiveness of God and of course we do and praise God that he is loving that his kind that he is good that he is a compassionate God. But if were going to be biblical. We must also deal with the subject. I realize as a subject would rather not deal about, but we can live in unreality. We must if we are committed to Scripture except the whole counsel of God and repeatedly, not just in the Old Testament but also in the New Testament repeatedly. God gives us warnings. The writer of Hebrews says is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. We live in a day when people of no fear of God, the more afraid of what their friends think our society things rather than being concerned. What does God think and if there is a God and I believe that is we are made in his image and one day each one of us will stand before God for the Bible tells us to be ready to be prepared to meet this God John the Baptist for examples that who warned you to flee from the wrath to come.

When Paul, the great apostle was on trial. He appeared before Felix and his wife, and dilute records in acts 24, 25, what Paul spoke about. He said he said he reasoned about righteousness and self-control, and the coming judgment wanted the king to know that one day he was going to face God. Jesus said that when the Holy Spirit comes he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment, so let me be clear judgment is coming for the wonder of the good news of the gospel. The wonder of the Christian gospel is this that God no. Today, as you sit here this morning, God offers you in his grace, mercy and forgiveness and that you may be delivered from this coming judgment. So, for example, we read that the end of John chapter 3 whoever believes in the son has eternal life. Whoever does not obey the son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him to. And so, in the gospel that is presented to us forgiveness over sin in your life a new beginning at new birth being born again, that all of your sins are gone, with totally forgiven, would receive the righteousness of Christ that is the wonder of the gospel.

We don't deserve it.

We don't work for it it comes to us freely because of Christ and the message of the gospel is if you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ will receive eternal life. But if you don't say. I don't believe in God. I don't believe in Jesus, I'm just going to take my chance. Jesus is if you do that the wrath of God abides you. That is if you do not obey the son, you will experience the wrath of God for all of eternity.

Perhaps you say well John, I'm going to take my chance. I don't know if I believe that I will take my chance but what you're saying is true, and if judgment does come, then I will repent of my sin. Then I'll get right with God, then I will trust Jesus Christ. Well, as we read Revelation 16 was were going to do this morning, ask yourself this question, what is the response in Revelation 16 to people on our who will experience the judgment of God. Revelation 16 is looking forward just before our Lord Jesus Christ returns in power and glory, and before he does this judgment.

This final series of judgments contained in the seven bowls is poured out on the yard.

What is the response of the people did their parents. They asked God for mercy to return to Jesus Christ Willow Street and find Revelation chapter 16 then verse one Revelation 16 verse one was in the context John says I heard a loud voice could say a great voice a great voice from the Temple telling the seven angels, go and poured out on the earth, the seven bowls of the wrath of God not notice the instruction for the balls to be poured out on earth comes from God himself.

Whether these bowls come from laid-back chapter 15 verse seven we saw last week. One of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God who lives forever and ever. So God himself is now saying to these angels who have received the seven bowls full of the plagues full of the judgment of God. Now I want you to pull them out on their because Jesus the King is about to return before our Lord Jesus returns to this earth.

There is this final series of judgments from God to earth very wrath of God is poured out on the earth as we saw last week and this will see again this week that God's judgment does not arbitrate God's judgment is not capricious but God's judgment is consistent with his character and his glory.

We put up in the screen during that song. The verses from Revelation 15, verses three and four that God's ways are just and true, then the verse for his righteous acts have been revealed. Don't say that God isn't just don't say that we don't deserve the judgment of God.

God's judgment is consistent with his character. He is a loving God, but is also just wanted God to be marked and for those who refuse to going to experience his judgment.

Now in verse two we read of the first goal, seven bowls bowls of judgment. Think of them like saucers full of these terrible plagues are going to be poured out on the earth.

Here's the first one verse two. So the first angel seven angels the first angel went and poured out his bowl in the art and harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image it produces harmful and painful sores upon people kind of ugly and painful ulcers. Now who receives these painful sores were told those who bear the mark of the beast that the antichrist member will earn 666 this is the world ruler described in different ways. Here is described as the beast who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image God is targeting in this first bowl. Those who have rebelled against God. Instead of following the Lamb of God, our Lord Jesus Christ. They have followed the peace that followed the antichrist undertaken his mark so the judgment of God falls on them and they receive these harmful and painful sores earlier that seem very smart to take the mark of the beast. Most people are doing it is the world ruler is what all of the answers he can provide protection if you don't follow him will not be able to buy or sell as of millions and millions of people follow him, and fact instead of worshiping God worship the anti-Christ. But no, there is no protection. This manpower flow is cannot protect his followers from the judgment of God. The forcible now the second goal verse three. The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea and they became like the blood of a corpse and every living thing died. That was in the city member. The first plague in Egypt, Moses, turn the waters of the Nile into blood could imagine the impact of this plague on the sea becomes like the blood of a corpse and every living thing every fish of the sea creature every lobster, every shrimp is in the sea dies, the third ball verses four through seven. The third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and streams of water, and they became blood. And I had the angel in charge of the water say just review all holy one who is and who was for you brought these judgments, for they have shed the blood of saints and prophets that you've given them blood to drink. It is what they deserve to have the altar saying yes Lord God the Almighty, true and just are your judgments. Here are the third Angel pours his bowl into fresh waters and they become blood all of the population of the world are now in danger as the supply of fresh water is impacted the angel in charge of the water pronounces that this judgment is well deserved end of verse six.

It is what they deserve. Furthermore, not only is the judgment what the people deserve it comes from a God who is holy and who is just people today over and over. They tell me all God one judges God is loving. I'll take my chance. I believe God is loving.

I'm not a perfect person but I take my chance with God. We learned last week and will learning this week, something which is very very important which our culture ignores that the judgment of God is consistent with his character.

He is just and he is true and when these awful balls are being poured out there as a reminder from heaven itself from the very altar itself. Yes, Lord God the Almighty verse seven truck true and just are your judgments in the verse six is what the deserve is that you say that's rather harsh of Gartner's North got it all is what the people wants. We read here verse six that they have shed the blood of saints and prophets. They have persecuted the people of God. They have lived in defiance of God they live their own life likes Aviva life of self-indulgence and now they are getting what they deserve.

The principles of Scripture. What a man sows, he you know that you so potatoes you get produce you so carriage you get what we sow we reap what is true in the natural world is true in the spiritual world. If you saw a life of self-indulgence, a life against God. You will reap the consequences of your actions these people with the third bowl are getting what they deserve God's giving them blood to drink. They persecuted and killed the people of God know the judgment is on them.

God is glorified God is just and they are receiving what they deserve. Now verses eight and nine. The forcible the fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, we get the picture. These are coming fast one after the other. The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun and is allowed to scorch people with fire. They were scorched by the fierce heat and they cursed the name of God, who had power over these plagues. They did not repent and give him glory.

This bowl is poured in the sun with resulted people on the earth are verse nine there scorched by the few seats were not told of how this actually happens in one way doesn't important believe that with God. It may be a kind of a radiation burn but the impact of this bowl is very very drastic on people who are on the earth now the fifth low. Verses 10 and 11, the fifth of all the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast member during the tribulation, the beast is going to take himself make himself as God is going to have his kingdom is the kingdom of God and that is the kingdom of the Antichrist happens to it while the fifth fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast. The antichrist and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in anguish and cursed the God of heaven for their pains and sores. They did not repent of their deeds. The target of this bowl is the beast kingdom which is plunged into darkness a few years ago and I were in Colorado and we went into these deep deep caves away dying under the earth and the satin flying. The guide said I'm going to warn you I will put off the lights and you're going to see how dark it is you notes when you think of it were never really in total darkness you going tonight even if those clouds there's the moon there's the stars above that the streetlights in your home was light outside and so were never in really dark darkness, but away dying under the earth. The guide put off the lights and I had never experienced such darkness.

You put your finger right at the end of your nose and you wouldn't see it. The cliché was true. You could feel the darkness could imagine the panic on this earth is this bowl is poured out. The fifth bowl and there is after darkness. Perhaps a preview of what Jesus taught in Matthew 2025 of those who reject him will be thrown into outer darkness where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The fifth bowl know the 6 V verses 12 through 15. Sorry I'm going so fast but I know you want to get I do here before noon. As I thought he finished at 11. Well will try the six ball verse 12 the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates and his water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from these. This is very interesting, isn't it. And I saw coming out of the mouth of the Dragon is the Dragon the devil with met him before in Revelation and out of the mouth of the beast. The antichrist out of the mouth of the false prophets three unclean spirits like frogs, for they are demonic spirits, performing signs, which go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God, the Almighty will hold I'm coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed and they assembled them at the place that is called in.

Excuse me. Verse 16 and they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon on the getting of all heard of Armageddon doing until it is the sixth bowl in Revelation 16, verses 12 through 15. This is the second last bowl judgment and chronology the Lord Jesus is just about to return and when the sixth angel pours out his bowl the river. The great river Euphrates, and this waters was dried up near the river Euphrates is one of the great rivers of the world begins in Turkey and flows southwest across Syria into present-day Iraq and goes right out into the Persian Gulf. It is 1714 miles long, that it is and it is much in the news with a rack with Syria Euphrates that it is this mighty river. Ancient Babylon was built on the Euphrates, the future Babylon that were going to think of next week and the following week may well be rebuilt on the river Euphrates. It was the river Euphrates was the easterly boundary of the land promised to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob read that Genesis chapter 50 you may recall that there was this wonderful promise to Abraham that the limited see that there was going to be this promise of the land. What is a land. Genesis 15, verse 18. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abraham saying to your offspring. I give this land from the river of Egypt was that of Egypt Nile to the great river, the river Euphrates from the Nile to the Euphrates was the promise land again in Joshua. Joshua chapter 1 is there going into the land Joshua one verse four from the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites to the great Sea great Sea is the Mediterranean toward the going dying of the sun shall be your territory. So Israel was promised there obviously in that land now all of it, but from the Nile to the great river Euphrates. The Euphrates being the easterly boundary of the promised land could imagine this great river being dried up. Eliza dried up meeting in verse 1212 to prepare the way for the kings from the East.

Who are these kings from the East, while simply put, we don't really know what I'm amazed that people speculate in and write authoritatively over Scripture is silent but there from the East from the audience armies from the Orient. Whether it's the Chinese are they Indians or whoever we don't know whether coming from the east and the gathering for battle and out of the unholy Trinity of the Dragon, the beast and the false prophet appeared, three unclean spirits like frogs were told in verse 14. They are demonic spirits. You believe in demons to believe in the world. Demons yes there evil they can do amazing things will right here.

They perform signs. They go abroad to the kings of the world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God Almighty. There, marshaling their forces against Christ the forces of evil are being lined up against the forces of the King of Kings and Lord of lords, frogs, was one of the plagues of Egypt was in the heroes of Army a great army is going to come across the river Euphrates and army from the East and they are gathering against the Lord Jesus against his people and particularly against the nation of Israel in an attempt to eradicate the Jewish people went to the assemble the assemble verse 16 at the place in Hebrew called our begin. People make movies about people talk about it is coming to our culture. Armageddon do know this is the only place in the Bible that you read this reference Armageddon, the mountain of Megiddo, par report month-end Megiddo in the place called Megiddo just a few months ago. Some of us from Calvary were there right that Megiddo in Israel.

And we saw the vast Valley of Jezreel. The plane of Ezra loan 20 miles x 14 miles which will be the center of this horrendous war not just a battle with a war that's going to go on right throat. Israel right down to Jerusalem and even further side, but the center of it is Armageddon. And when we were there is really guy was pointing out the importance of that particular site and have many many battles in the Old Testament times, and even in modern times were fought in Armageddon is the meeting of the great nations are you've got coming from Africa. It's the roots you come up with the going to Asia to come across the Armageddon. You got your Africa you got Asia, in a sense all meeting at this important point called Armageddon where there's going to be in the future.

This horrendous battle to day of the Lord's vengeance we read wasn't in chapter 14 the end of verse 14.

The great winepress of the wrath of God is the great and awesome day of the Lord. It's when Jesus Christ will return and defeat these enemies and armies look forward to. Chapter 19 verse 19 is a reference to it as well. Revelation 19 Jesus Christ returns to earth what happens.

Revelation 1919 and I saw the beast Antichrist and the kings of the earth with her armies gathered to make war against him, that is Jesus, who was sitting on the horse and against his army.

They are, of course, praise God going to be completely defeated the beast and the false prophet going to be thrown into the lake of fire I think is wonderful that right in the middle of this horrific scene. Let's face it is difficult for us to read is that all of us to talk about right in the middle of this there is this beautiful blessing you get it verse 15 behold, I'm coming like a thief, that imagery is used in various places in Scripture to describe the return of Jesus becomes like a thief in the night. How does a thief come to your house. How does the thief come to your business becomes, unexpectedly, he doesn't send you his card and said I'm going to come to your house at 3 o'clock in the morning know he comes suddenly becomes in the sense when you least expect it. Here is a reminder that Jesus Christ is coming like a thief and think of the blessing to those who stay awake, keeping his garments on the imago about that.

He may not go about naked and be seen, expose that is clothed with the righteousness of Jesus Christ my verses 17 through 21, the seventh and final bowl. Verse 17 the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air and a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne saying it is done and there were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder and the great earthquake, such as the had never been since man was on the air so great was that earthquake never been in an earthquake, but people told me to bring in one is one of the most frightening experiences of the very shake under here is that earthquake biggest that ever ever has happens is going to happen with the pouring out of the seventh bowl just right before the Lord returns that great city great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And God remembered Babylon the great, to make her drain the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath. And every island fled away, and no mountains were to be found and great hailstones, about 100 times each fell from heaven on people and they curse God for the plague of the hill because the plague was so severe unison bowl poured out into the air and as it happens, John hears a loud voice coming out of the temple verse 17 and was a voice say verse 17 it is done than lightning and thunder in the great earthquake follow the pouring out of the bowl an unprecedented earthquake which is going to literally shake the earth in the cities is going to impact the world so much that the very islands and mountains disappear the contours of the world are going to be changed in huge hailstones from heaven are going to fall on people, the great city, which I believe is Jerusalem will be split into three parts, and God is going to remember evil Babylon, which will be judged and will see that next week. In chapter 17. The following week. In chapter 18 note as we conclude three things I want to safely license for us. One is a lesson on the reality of judgment met may perhaps have never had a message like this before, perhaps, is not what you expected when you come to church you expected to to be reaffirmed in your prejudices, your desires will be feeling good about yourself are negative, you find yourself a Calvary church and you got this strange guy preaching at your about judgment.

What are you going to say well judgment after judgment has fallen on their and isn't it amazing. I find this absolutely surprising in one way that even with the judgments falling on the earth.

Many continue to rebel against God. One would've thought that if you were someone who had been rebelling against God, and neither judgment of God is falling on the art that you would be on your knees crying out to God for mercy asking for God to save you and to forgive you and to repent of all of your rebellion, but that doesn't happen the hearts get harder and harder and they know that the judgment of God is falling on those who are not followers of the Lamb member we saw with the first bullet was targeted on those who had taken the mark of the beast, and they don't repent. Look back at verse nine with the fourth goal, they were scorched by the fierce seat and the curse, the name of God with power over these plagues. They did not repent and give him glory we have in the translation I'm using the English standard version. The translation curse in Greek. It's the it's the word I screamed at the old King James. The new American Standard habit they blaspheme God blasphemy is particularly serious because it is directed against God there cursing God that blaspheming God there is no sign of repentance here.

Verse 11 with the fifth plague. What did he do they nor their tongues in anguish. This is bad. This is serious and they cursed the God of heaven for the pain and source they did not repent of their deeds again. Verse 21, when the hailstones come.

The last part and they curse God for the plague of the hail, because the plague was so severe. This is this is very interesting and this demonstrates a very important principle that when you hear the word of God.

And when you're Convicted of the word of God and you realize that God is speaking to you that God is getting to your attention, it either is going to melt your heart and break your heart and you going to respond with humility to God are if you don't do so your heart becomes harder and harder and harder over the years I've had men sit in my office as of confronted them of their sin of an affair, site of man is this true in several locations. They said yes yes I'm saying what you're thinking of the Scriptures to them that Lisa and a couple of occasions the man has looked at me and said pass that I know what I'm doing is wrong. I know the Bible says I should do this. Although you knew my wife.

You might be a little more sympathetic but what I'm going to do I'm going to go ahead with this affair because I've never felt so alive before and it's all wonderful and I'm going to go ahead and at some point then I'm going to repent never looked at them and said is evidence of very very hard heart because if you're not willing to repent now how do you think if you continue in that sin that you can at some point just repent.

When are you going to be changed because what sin does.

One of the impacts of sin. We all know this. It hardens our hearts. How is it people say this individual has changed this mine was once a kind and one so loving to his family, but now we so self-centered. Now he's so hard not really a mystery at all. This is what sin has done so. The Bible says, announcing to you today if you hear his voice, do not harden your heart. Do not think that you any time can decide to repent, you may never get the opportunity to repent, you may die tomorrow. But even if you're alive. Your heart may be so hardened that the last thing you want to do is to repent and so the Bible says over and over again. Today is the day of salvation today.

Get right with God. Don't put it off tomorrow.

One day you're going to make God be ready to meet God. And if you're not ready to meet God when you leave this morning.

Trust the Savior so that you know you're right with God. My grandfather was the oldest of a large family that was about 11 or 12 of them. He was the oldest and his youngest in the family.

My grandfather was called John he called after him and his youngest brother was called Willie Elizabeth 20 years difference from the and as I grew up in a number of very much lived in the same village as my grandfather, my uncle Willie is a very successful skipper of a fishing boat made a lot of money but he was not a follower of Christ. His brother was several of the family members but not my uncle Willie natural factors.

My great uncle one day. It had the gospel over and over again always rejected never went to church didn't want his brothers to preach to pursue the life of fishing. In this essay did very well materially. He was married with others or break, have a little holiday vacation and they drove village in the north of Scotland. Little fishing village where my grand parents lived and he was driving down through the Highlands. Beautiful scenery and the he he said as he came running the condo, driving his car.

He saw on the side of the road, a massive rock and written on the rock for the rest of Scripture, nor the time but it was from Amos for verse 12 prepare to meet your God, and he said that was just like an arrow into his soul. Prepare to meet your God continue but one day he was going to meet God and that Scripture drove him to his knees that he even as he was driving the car, he called Dr. Christ for salvation. You ready to do that.

Prepare you prepare to meet your God lesson on the reality of judgment. Secondly, a lesson on the necessity of repentance. On October 31 1517 when Martin Luther hammered his thesis on the door of the castle church at Wittenberg. This was the first one will be celebrating the 500th anniversary of the Reformation in a few months.

Here is what Luther wrote 500 years ago, when our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ said, repentance he meant that the entire life of believers should be one of repentance. I we read in the Scripture that these people do not repentance. This is to characterize a follower of Christ.

You cannot be a follower of Christ without having repented, but is not just repenting once it is a life of humility, a life of turning from our sin in the life of embracing Christ was repentance is not just being sorry is not just having been fined out and humiliated. It's a change of mind, resulting in a change of attitude. A change of actions.

True repentance means taking responsibility for our sins with a genuine desire to turn from our sins and to turn to God to get right with God.

People today glibly say why repented, but there's no change in their life.

If you say you've repented and there's no change in your continue committing the sends over and over again. I don't know what's going on in your life but is certainly not biblical repentance, because true repentance, results in change and it is essential as Luther is saying is essential for living a life pleasing to God. Superficial repentance produces superficial people.

Repentance is being specific about your sin, your many young men using a follower of Christ, you need to give allowed the sins that come into your life and you don't just say well if I'm if I messed up. I'm sorry that's not repentance. Be specific about your sin say Lord I have sinned, and this is the sin that I have committed expose this and isolate the same name. The sin sin wants to be left alone. Sin wants to be kept in the dark. Bring it up to the light of the word of God allowed the Holy Spirit to shine into your heart to expose the ugliness of your sin. Don't blame others take responsibility for your sin.

When Jesus began his public ministry. According to Marky Mark chapter 1 he says repentance and believe in the gospel.

Salvation begins with repentance, so if you are not yet saved and ask you to repent but is also true for the believer. Some of you have all of this junk is come into your life. As of this unholiness and work singing about a holy garden, you realize there's a lot of unholiness in your life, what you need to do give you an opportunity today to repent a lesson on the reality of judgment a lesson on the necessity of repentance.

Third, a lesson on the offer of grace to this is the last of the judgments but never before these judgments fell, God had put throughout the world.

His messengers are hundred and 44,000 of them.

The two witnesses that we learned about the angel featuring the internal gospel that has been ample opportunity for everyone to call on the Lord.

The gospel is being preached throughout the world and because the people do not repent, then judgment comes in verse 17 we read of the live voice from the throne saying it is done does that remind you another live voice member on the cross with her Savior shut finished with the main he meant that the work of salvation is complete here when a loud voice says it is non-that refers to a message of judgment with her Savior from the cross and remind you he says finish. Do you know this but everything has been done to provide your salvation God has done everything so that you can be forgiven of your sins, you can be born again that you can receive eternal life that right now you can have the assurance that when you die when you meet God you will be ready because of your own goodness, but because you have been clothed with the righteousness of Christ because his righteousness has come to you. He has taken your sin and you received this righteousness and this is the offer of grace today.

God is reaching out to embrace. We ask God for his forgiveness for goodness which flows from the redemptive work of our Lord Jesus Christ. That's why we have across on the ceiling above me a reminder that it is at the cross of Christ.

We receive forgiveness by a church, but by my goodness I buy something I do, but rather someone I receive Christ who died for me, who rose again who's alive says come to me and I will give you rest. This is all future. Many of us here.

Rejoice that this judgment will never ever fall on us because we are sheltered by the blood of the Lamb sheltered by the cross of Jesus Christ and God has great joy and pleasure that through the perfect work of his son on the cross and others are saved and straying sheep restored and forgiven today. You need to repent today, you need to get right with God.

Judgment is coming.

The only place of safety is found in Jesus Christ witnessing a minute I'm going to give you an opportunity. Yes you never received Christ, he would come forward and receive Christ as your Savior. Many of you are followers of Christ, but you need to repent. You need to bring you been dabbling you been playing in the Christian faith and your needs to get right with God our father and the holiness of this moment we bow before your this is an awesome passage makes us tremble at your holiness and righteousness. We know this is not science fiction. This is not the imagination of Hollywood.

This is your revelation events which will soon take place. I pray for every person here every boy girl young man young woman older person that each one of us will be prepared to meet you. We thank you for the Savior came to judge us but to seek us and to save us open our eyes met, each person calling to Christ for salvation. We pray in his name
