Thank you for starting with a favorite song!!! Great and insightful sermon. Many, many people need to hear that it is the evil prosecutor who humiliates you, not God! May God bless you all!
Great message pastor The Lord always speaks through you and it's a blessing to everyone Deer pastor Lawson as you have got older, you're preaching and teaching has just got better and sweeter Maybe you don't shout as much as you used to, but I never felt good teaching needed shouting, and you are just proving that in your later years It really is anointed preaching what you are doing there sir Please continue in this regard Is wonderful to see an older man, who is blessed with the wisdom of the Lord
It has been said by my late pastor, it you are anxious about committing the sin against the Holy Spirit then you have not committed that sin. If you have no feelings at all about it then you may have as it is the Holy Spirit that convicts of sin.
In 1976, when I was 13 years old, I had a wide awake, real, in full color VISION of the Lord's Return... I want to stress, this was NOT a dream. We lived out in the country in the middle of dusty plowed fields, dirt roads and woods in south Georgia. Everything looked kind of brown and crispy, like it needed rain bad. The corn field across the road in front of the house was starting to turn brown and die. I went to my bedroom, which faced out the front side of the house and looked out onto our front yard, which had a semi-circular dirt driveway and beside the left entrance was an old dogwood tree which had to be at least a hundred years old. Highway 341 ran from east to west in front of our house, which faced north, and the cornfield I spoke of earlier was on the other side of the highway. There was a slight rise in the middle of this field and you could not see the trees on the other side, so it looked like an ocean of corn that went off into the horizon. As I lay across my bed looking out the window, contemplating what I saw before me, I began to hear music in the distance. I specifically heard it in my right ear and the direction from which it came made me think of the high school band which practiced several miles southeast from where I lived. When conditions were right we could hear the band playing, but usually only heard the faint beat of drums. This sounded like trumpets and as I was thinking this to myself, I began to notice the music getting louder and louder, coming closer and closer, very quickly. Within a few seconds the sound wasn't just something that was exterior, but it was inside my head as well, reverberating throughout my entire body. It was so loud and it sounded like lightning crashed directly over my head and, in that split second, the trumpet sound thundered throughout my body and throughout the entire world...everything went dark and my bed and the earth shook violently. In a flash, I was no longer lying on my bed, but I was standing outside my bedroom window in the front yard and I beheld the scene in front of me with tremendous awe. It was still my front yard, only now everything was different. It seemed as if my entire range of vision was a huge 3D movie screen and I was in the middle of it. The trumpets continued to sound and I saw that the blue, sunny sky had turned black and the clouds churned and the wind blew with a violence that I had never experienced. The corn field was now a sea of wheat that was golden brown and ripe for harvest and I could see every stalk of wheat individually, billions of them. And I watched as the wind thrashed the wheat until it was beaten down by the storm. I now know that the Bible speaks several times about, in the end time, when the wheat is ripe for harvest, how the wheat will be separated from the tares. The tares are gathered and bundled together for burning and the wheat is gathered into the barn. Then I noticed the dogwood tree. It was mid-July, so of course I know there should not have been any blossoms on it, they usually bloom around Easter...but the tree was in full bloom. I had never seen anything like this. You couldn't see any leaves on the tree because of the millions of dogwood blossoms. It looked as if it were lit from within, by a glowing whitest of white, neon light and it glowed gloriously against the darkened sky. Now, I know the Bible says no man knows the day nor hour that Jesus will return, but if we watch for the signs, we can know the season. I have always felt that He might come back in the spring when the dogwood tree is in bloom. Of all the things that could have been highlighted in a vision; why the dogwood tree? I believe there is a specific message here. (Update: recently, I prayed about this and I feel the Lord placed into my spirit that this represents the fullness of the gentiles coming in). Just as I was taking all of this in, lightning filled the sky and the trumpets thundered over head again and in an instant there appeared two angels. They were dressed in white robes, facing each other up in the air and blowing golden trumpets. They were huge and filled the sky in front of me and I knew that the entire world must be seeing this as well. When I say huge, I mean like the size of the highest mountains, literally. I didn't think the trumpets could get any louder, but they grew louder still, building to a great crescendo and I heard a great shout that was louder than anything that you could imagine. And with that shout, it's as if the earth fell silent, the black, violent clouds began to roll back onto themselves from the center of the northeastern sky and I saw light in the distance. It was more a combination of light and clearing of the clouds in the distance that got my attention. As I looked up at this shaft of light and clearing sky, I saw what seemed to be fluttering and movement in the distance. As it came into view, I saw Jesus on a white horse and behind him were millions of angels and saints on white horses. It was at this moment, when I realized what I was seeing, that it disappeared and I was back in my room lying on my bed. Everything was back to normal and I was again looking out at a bright, sunny day.
Amazing....I know, at least in my mind, just to comprehend the Glory we will see when Jesus comes....can't even imagine it but your testimony was a Beautiful picture!
I've tried to edit this 8 times from the stupid auto correct and it won't change. Soon it's supposed to be sin, and there's more problems. Excellent message. I've listened twice already and will a third time to take notes. I've always had questions about repentance. How do you know if you're really repented? How do you know if you'll soon if you're tempted a year from now? If you fail a year from now, did you really repent? Why would God tell someone that he'll give them a new heart in the future, so they won't soon against him, when they need it now? I feel like God is saying, You stop sinning and conquer that sin on your own, and when you don't need it, I'll give you a new heart so you won't sin against me. Not trying to be disrespectful, I'm just saying that I'm confused.
Pastor and Temple I need prayer for bone cancer and a clogged artery that is affecting blood flow to my legs and organs by Jesus stripes I am healed yet I still need good strong pray that will come from Temple I am a RUclips member and LFTv trust and obey Amen
1000 MG of vitamin C helps. I had clogged artery in my leg and that's all I did for it. Had a daily dose of vitamin C for few weeks. After that the Holy Spirit would occasionally tell me to take it. I remember thinking, "How do I know that's you telling me?' I took it anyway at my sink, and when I lifted up my head to drink some water, I saw the letter C on the header above my window. Someone put it there in 1930 when the house was being built. I had removed it to remodel the kitchen. I looked to the right top be looking directly at the letter c handwritten on the wall. I looked to my left and saw the letter c for the third time. Amazing that the Lord had someone write the letter c 3 times on the framing above my sink 92 years ago. And I am not telling you to not to go to the doctor, I wouldn't dare do that.
Galatians 2:16 “Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.”
My message underneath here I've tried to autocorrect 8 times. While I'm correcting auto correct, auto correct is steadily making more messes to clean up. Soon is supposed to be sin in my message, and there's more screw ups. Had to fix this one twice
I find the Philosophy of Calvin distasteful and the blood on his hands even more so. He’s like a neomuhammed. I’ll take Paul any day over any early church father or reformer. God bless y’all Temple Baptist
Same here. People I know that are Calvinist are usually open to other heresy. Good example would be john McArthur. I read few months ago that he doesn't believe there's any power in the blood of Christ. What heresy and blatant disregard for scripture. Also this may be hyper Calvinist, but some Calvinist believe that you never except Christ on your own, but just wait for God to one day do it.

My message is a victim of auto correct. Tried to correct it and it won't let me.
The doers of the Law shall be justified
Galatians 2:16
“Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.”
My message underneath here I've tried to autocorrect 8 times. While I'm correcting auto correct, auto correct is steadily making more messes to clean up. Soon is supposed to be sin in my message, and there's more screw ups. Had to fix this one twice
Correction: Rom 2:11 to start....
Thank you :)
I find the Philosophy of Calvin distasteful and the blood on his hands even more so. He’s like a neomuhammed. I’ll take Paul any day over any early church father or reformer.
God bless y’all Temple Baptist
