I want to talk to you about the very serious subject, the sevenfold sin of those who do not Yes, you understood me. The 19 and 20 plainly says that in this scripture Jesus said, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye baptizing them in the name of the Father.
And he told them, when you get somebody, So everybody that was saved, you do what Jesus did. In fact, that's the main thing. No commission, no plan, no work he ever commanded us to do could be more important than this.
And we're to win souls. Jesus repeated that command when he met John. Jesus said, and let him that hear it say that day, I remember, if you don't take the gospel in the way of preaching, you're in disobedience.
Let me say then, you will obey him. This is the reason, you know, that the scripture, you know, he commanded us to follow him. He said, let this mind be in you, which is all.
Remember that in John chapter, you're to abide, you're the branch. You can't do it without Jesus. Somebody says, Jesus just set up in him.
Not being filled, not being wholly surrendered to him, not being. You're not of Jesus Christ. And here's a claim, you have missed the way.
You're out of the will of God. You're not winning souls because, you know, when there's the blossom, if you abide in him. But there it is.
I'll prove it to you again. In Romans 15, you remember, don't you want to pay it? You're crooked. If you don't pay your, listen, not me, not you alone, but the billions over.
You remember that, uh, the synonyms, and they to be wise, they to be wise. Oh, the foolish. When I lived in Daniel, in two weeks time, we have not warned them.
Two, because it really makes.
