Congratulations GPH.That is hands down the most encouraging sermon I have ever read here on the RF.Meat in due season,blessed is that servant!

And he bowed himself, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am?
Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord
I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee
Be not afraid, only believe
This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent
labour therefore to enter into that rest
For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works.
(2 Samuel 9:8,Luke 5:8,Hebrews 13:5,Mark 5:36,John 6:29,Hebrews 4:11,Hebrews 4:10)

"Come on, slanderers! rail on as pleases you. Come on thou world in arms! Cataracts of trouble descend if you will, and you, ye floods of affliction, roll if so it be ordained, for God has written my name in the book of life. Firm as this rock I stand, though nature reels and all things pass away"

"Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name.And they shall be mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him" (Malachi 3:16)

"Now, believer, thou mayest be very poor, and very sick, and very much unknown and despised, but sit thee down and review thy calling this morning, and the consequences that flow from it"

Now this sounds like the sort of sermon that should have ushers issuing helmets and pews being fitted with safety belts! Dynamite!
