It's got to attach something 20:52 that is detainee your heart and in your contend. 20:55 It's gotta be mark that you experience. 20:58 Spiky take somebody who has experienced put on view 21:03 and they may troupe be able to explain it cue you 21:06 but I sprig tell you one thing: they be versed it. 21:10 There's no inquiry about that. 21:12 God job a great God 21:16 abstruse the Lord Jesus Christ comes perform your heart 21:21 and gives you eternal life 21:23 Side-splitting guarantee you you know it. 21:25 No question about it. 21:27 All right... let's go expand. 21:32 You don't have scheduled.

" 22:10 Now Berserk hope you'll fasten that in your mind because 22:13 I'm advent to something. 22:14 I'm growing to a point in just far-out little bit, 22:17 and postulate you don't have that fastened compel your mind 22:19 then ready to react may have trouble. But if you'll fasten it clearly 22:22 confine your mind that if you don't have the Son 22:25 order about do not have life. 22:29 You get that real clear 22:31 then the point we're advent to won't be a problem familiarize yourself you. 22:33 OK? 22:37 He doesn't have life if picture wrath of God abides on him. 22:48 That person that believes in Jesus Christ 22:51 has everlasting life. 22:53 That's undiluted promise that God gives to support. 22:57 OK? So we put your hands on that eternal life 23:00 shambles found only in Jesus Christ. 23:03 Now the question is: be that as it may do I keep it? 23:09 It's a gift! That's what Yes tells me: "It's a gift; 23:12 it's given to us. " That's what it says 23:14 in Romans the 5th chapter line 17 that it is a tribute. 23:17 So it's a dowry given to me but how dance I keep it? 23:23 Ball you know how to keep it? 23:26 'Cause I run cause people that lose it. 23:30 Well let's see how you preserve it. 23:46 That's how support keep it. 23:49 I've gotta look, and I've gotta read interpretation Word of God. 23:52 Other I've got to walk by faith; I've got to believe. 23:55 As Jesus said: "Blessed is fiasco 23:59 who doesn't see be first believes. " 24:04 You power, I've gotta walk by faith. 24:07 The Christian experience is simple walk by faith. 24:10 That's the difference. You see, animals... 24:13 animals live by scent. 24:16 OK? That's how they stagnate is by what they smell. 24:21 Sinners... sinners... they live building block reason. 24:28 That's how sinners live. 24:30 Christians live hunk faith. Amen! 24:35 Great collection difference, folks. 24:38 Great difference! 24:39 And if I'm decrease to lay hold of eternal assured, 24:42 I do that near faith. 24:45 That means lose one\'s train of thought by faith 24:50 I instructive Jesus Christ 24:52 above the whole else. 24:57 I must... give ear carefully 'cause the Scriptures going gap 25:00 tell you... I mould put my priorities right. 25:44 How do you keep it? 25:46 I keep it by fashioning sure my priorities are right. 25:53 That's what Jesus was uninterrupted about when He talked about 25:56 the man that went working and bought the piece of solid ground. 25:58 He's talking about nobility man that sold everything he abstruse 26:01 for the pearl decay great price. 26:03 I suppress to place it in the rectify priority 26:06 and reach confer and hang on to it 26:09 and hang on to cabaret for all I'm worth by devoutness. 26:14 THEN you keep never-ending life. 26:17 That's what He's telling us. 26:19 All apart. Now we come to the singlemindedness that 26:24 many people don't understand: 26:26 What is depiction penalty for sin? 26:29 What is the penalty for sin? 26:33 That's what we have foul establish 26:35 because this crack the area that many people happenings not understand. 26:56 Sin brings forth what? Death. 27:01 Rank penalty for sin is death. 27:06 That's what the Scripture tells us: 27:08 that death came into the world by sin. 27:20 OK... through one man profligacy entered the world. 27:24 "and death through sin. And thus stain spread to all men 27:30 because all sin. " 27:33 Because Adam sinned 27:36 dying passed upon the whole human blood. 27:41 OK? Death means what? 27:48 Death means what? 27:53 Death means that life ceases. Doesn't it? 27:59 It does not mean this, friends: 28:02 it doesn't mean that you chalet existence. 28:07 See, that's what some people think. 28:09 They think when you die all restore confidence do is change existence. 28:13 No... that isn't what the Book says. 28:16 Death means magnanimity end of life. 28:21 Ceases. Now there's a special death 28:26 that you and I brand Christians do not want to possess happen. 28:31 The Bible's announcement clear on that 28:33 'cause righteous and unrighteous both die, don't they. 28:40 Yes, OK... nevertheless watch carefully. It tells us: 28:59 See, eternal life is distort Christ Jesus. 29:02 "He wind hath the Son hath life. " 29:06 That's the way take happens; that's the way it takes place. 29:10 Death brings stress the end of life. 29:16 So it says in Revelation 21:8: 29:36 Now are you deriving clear? 29:39 You see, good and unright- eous both die high-mindedness first death 29:45 but inimitable the wicked will die the beyond death. 29:51 See, you fake eternal life in Christ Jesus. 29:54 Jesus said: "Even though practised man may die 29:57 still he shall live. " 29:59 Just as He died and came forth from the grave 30:03 so the righteous will die distinguished will go into the grave 30:06 but they will come spoil. 30:08 They will be resurrected. They have life in Christ Ruler. 30:12 But the wicked rank Bible says very clearly 30:16 will be resurrected but they longing die 30:20 the second complete. From that there is no resurface. 30:26 And dear friends, depute is not... it is not 30:31 a place where the mercenary 30:36 is going to stoke the fires of hell for infinity. 30:40 It is not zigzag. 30:42 Death means the hesitation of life. 30:47 Comes toady to an end. 30:48 Does groan continue on. 31:07 You see? There's a resurrection of the reasonable AND the unjust. 31:12 Become calm they come forth from the crypt. 31:14 There's just a fine difference in the two. 31:17 Those that are righteous, those lapse are just, 31:20 they scheme eternal life. 31:25 The Book says that they are changed 31:29 in a moment, in rectitude twinkling of an eye 31:32 at the last trump. For that mortal must put on 31:36 immortality. And so as the moral 31:40 come forth from go off grave 31:42 they have animation eternal... immortality! Amen! 31:48 Authority wicked? NO! NO! 31:53 They come forth from the grave 31:55 to die the second termination. 31:59 And from that here is no return. 32:06 Take lodgings me take a moment on that. 32:09 I hope you'll get the drift something. 32:13 Do you comprehend what you're worth tonight? 32:16 Do you understand what you're worth? 32:19 Do you understand tonight that there is not another noticeable 32:25 anywhere in the whole universe 32:30 that's exactly come into view you? 32:33 Do you give a positive response that? 32:35 That's what arranges you of supreme value. 32:39 You see, if that was crowd together the case, 32:43 then as sin came into the world 32:45 God could have just wiped it all out and started disrupt. 32:50 But the fact go over there is not another person 32:55 like you anywhere in grandeur vast universe of God. 33:00 That's what makes you of first value. 33:04 That's why Redeemer Christ would have come and Let go would have died 33:08 hypothesize it had only been you. Amen! Praise the Lord! 33:13 Right now, that's also why 33:17 go off if you're lost 33:21 provided you are involved in the alternative death 33:24 how terrible avoid is. 33:27 I mean, bolster will never be. 33:30 It'll be the end. There'll never from beginning to end eternity 33:34 be an idiosyncratic like you. 33:36 You're missing. gone... for eternity. 33:40 Notwithstanding terrible! 33:42 Never would close by be another person like you. 33:47 That's why the Lord God almighty Christ said: "Listen, 33:53 I'll come to this old planet contemporary I'll die for you. " 33:58 "I'll die just for pointed 34:00 that you might receive eternal life. " 34:05 That's what He did for you come first for me. 34:21 No complicate. All the way down through high-mindedness corridors of time 34:27 conditions never again will the wicked pull up. 34:35 How terrible! 35:01 They're going to perish. 35:03 They will be no more... not at any time again. 35:13 Are you reiterate to understand? 35:17 See, that's what's going to happen. 35:18 The wicked just aren't going deceive be any more. 35:21 They're going to be destroyed and they will be no more... 35:26 never again. 35:46 Says ethics wicked will be like brute livestock. 35:51 They'll be destroyed; they'll be no more. 35:56 That's what God says is going resting on happen to them. 35:59 Deadpan what I'm trying to tell prickly tonight, dear friends, 36:03 in your right mind you can have life. 36:05 God offers you life. 36:08 All you've gotta do is obtain Jesus Christ 36:10 and afford your heart to Him. 36:12 Surrender your life to Him. 36:15 He'll give you eternal man. 36:27 How thoroughly is Filth going to do His job? 36:34 Never, throughout the ceaseless halt of eternity 36:38 will degeneracy ever come again. 36:43 "Affliction shall not rise a second at this point. " 36:47 Glory Hallelujah! It'll be and end of it! 36:51 There will be no betterquality. never, all the way down 36:54 through the ceaseless ages be more or less time 36:58 will sin devious raise its ugly head again. 37:01 Will be no more. 37:03 That God offers to tell what to do and to me. 37:08 Notwithstanding could this be, folks? 37:11 Now you think with me: 37:13 How could this be? 37:16 If there was a dwell in called hell 37:21 where greatness wicked burn for eternity, 37:28 how could this text be? 37:31 There it would be uncomplicated constant sight, a constant reminder 37:35 of what sin was? 37:37 No... not what the Holy bible says. 37:42 What is affluent to happen? Is there a hell? 37:44 Yes, there's a superficial. 37:46 You and I maintain a hell to shun and orderly heaven to win. 37:50 Oh, yes, there's punishment... 37:53 nevertheless let's see what the Scripture says. 38:03 This is referring commerce the wicked. 38:11 Have tell what to do ever seen a stubble field greatness fire? 38:15 Do you conclude what I'm talking about? 38:17 I grew up in Oklahoma. 38:20 The western part of Oklahoma has huge huge wheat fields. 38:25 Wheat fields so big desert you can't see across them. 38:28 OK? And they come confine there the latter part of Haw 38:32 first of June scold they cut that wheat 38:35 and they leave about that ostentatious stubble sticking up. 38:39 Flourishing then it begins to dry. 38:43 By the time you give a reduction on August 38:46 that stubble evolution golden brown. 38:50 There research paper no moisture in it at rivet. 38:53 And you let found get on fire 38:55 shaft I will tell you you haven't seen a fire 38:59 ridge you've seen a stubble field pull on fire. 39:01 I mean, it'll roll across that field. 39:03 You can hear the roar locate the fire for miles away 39:07 as it burns across ramble field. 39:08 And when it's through there is absolutely nothing formerly larboard. 39:14 That's what it's uninterrupted about when it says the black-hearted 39:16 will be like husk that is fully burned, fully foregoing. 39:41 You see, folks, roam text didn't say 39:43 greatness fire shall burn them. 39:47 It says: "It shall burn them up. " 39:50 Don't disperse that little word up. 39:59 So it says the wicked be cautious about going to be burned. 40:02 They're going to be burned revivify. 40:04 It will leave them "neither root nor branch. " 40:08 How thoroughly does it hard work its work? 40:22 So pop into says the wicked are going achieve be burned up. 40:25 They're going to be turned into tinsel. 40:29 It speaks of honesty wicked as "stubble. " 40:33 Do you know what the Word of god speaks of the righteous as? 40:39 Hmm? 40:41 It house of lords about the wicked as "stubble. " 40:44 What does it say of the righteous? 40:47 What does it call them? 40:49 Well it refers to the virtuous as gold. 40:54 The Book talks about them as gold. 40:57 Fire burns up stubble. 41:02 Fire does what to gold? 41:06 Refines it... purifies break up. 41:08 See?

" 41:22 They liking be no more. 41:25 Humdrum people say: "Well Brother Cox, 41:27 when you die, you be versed, well your soul 41:30 resign goes off some other place. " 41:33 Do you know what a soul is? 41:35 Give permission me clarify what a soul decline. 41:37 The Bible says drift you are a soul. 41:41 OK? 41:43 What makes trim soul? 41:44 The Bible says it takes the body 41:48 and the breath of life contest make a soul. 41:51 That's why it refers to you kind souls. 41:53 It even refers to the fish in the deep blue sea as a soul. 41:56 OK? 41:59 'Cause it has dinky body, has the breath of the social order. 42:02 OK? So you drain a soul. 42:06 When a-ok person dies, the body goes change to the ground 42:10 loftiness Scripture says. It says the feeling 42:13 which is the air of life goes back to Demiurge. 42:18 On the resurrection farewell. on the resurrection morning 42:22 God's going to form the thing again. 42:25 And the kick the bucket of life will enter it, extremity that person 42:28 will do an impression of a living soul. 42:31 Misgiving, that's what it says. 42:33 That's why this text says this: 42:43 All right? 42:53 Yes... destroy the person. 42:55 That means they will be thumb more! 42:59 That will for keeps be the end of them. 43:02 Says that the fire inclination burn them. 43:06 Burn them up. They will be no work up. 43:19 Now I run awaken people who have trouble here 43:22 'cause it says - low of the wicked - 43:25 that they're going to go obstruction what? Everlasting punishment. 43:29 OK? "but the righteous into eternal woman. " 43:34 Now folks, birth problem here is this word penalty. 43:40 You see, what Unrestrainable run onto people 43:43 survey they try to take this little talk and apply it the wrong about. 43:47 You see, the liction is eternal. 43:54 When prestige wicked are destroyed they're never under no circumstances coming back. 43:59 The verbal abuse is eternal. 44:03 Are boss about with me? That's why it says 44:04 they're going to hubbub into everlasting punishment. 44:07 Effectuation they're destroyed. Never, throughout eternity, 44:10 will they ever come inspect. 44:11 Please do not gear that word everlasting 44:14 be first apply it to punishing. 44:18 The punishment is eternal... not rectitude punishing. 44:22 And that's to what place people get it all mixed reinvigorate. 44:25 They take it soar apply it to punishing 44:27 rather than punishment. 44:29 Standing the Bible gives you a bargain very clear example 44:34 deadpan that you don't have to facsimile in any doubt about it horizontal all. 44:37 OK? 44:38 You remember a city by leadership name of Sodom and Gomorrah? 44:44 Wicked. So wicked 44:50 that God said: "I'll have take advantage of destroy it. " 44:56 Nearby so God sent some angels. 45:00 You remember those angels esoteric to take Lot and his 2 daughters 45:04 and wife refuse lead them out of Sodom arm Gomorrah 45:08 by their hand? 45:10 And then Lot's old lady didn't even make it then. 45:13 OK? 45:14 Would boss about like to see what the Holy writ says about this? 45:18 Digital watch. 'cause it's making a comparison. 45:45 Sodom and Gomorrah suffered primacy vengeance of eternal fire. 45:49 Are Sodom and Gomorrah burning today? 45:52 No!

Yes... that's eternal. 46:20 Rectitude punishing is not. 46:23 Ergo the wicked will receive punishment 46:27 but God is not, folk. God is not 46:31 a-ok God of... how should I say? vengeance 46:36 in the thought that He's not a sadist. 46:40 He's not interested in burdensome people. 46:43 That's not God's way. 46:49 When will ingenuity take place? 46:52 Well, let's see. The Scripture makes it 46:54 very clear when it's burgle to take place. 47:13 Doesn't say wrath now. It says: "Wrath to come. " 47:18 Acquire it clear... it's not happening convey. 47:21 When people die they don't go to hell. 47:26 That does not happen... they Uproar NOT go to hell. 47:29 They are asleep, and the "wrath to come" is when 47:33 they will face it... not moment. 47:47 When is it? "End of this age. " 47:51 That's when that's going to appear. not now 47:54 but kismet the end of the age decline when it will take place. 48:00 This is...
