:12:00
and ye shall know
that I am the Lord."

:12:02
I Kings 20:28.
:12:05
Brethren, let not the heathen
shame you.

:12:09
The Syrians had already been defeated
in battle

:12:12
by such an imperial force
of Israelites whom they despised

:12:16
that they thought there was
something supernatural about it

:12:19
and ascribed their defeat
to the God of Israel.

:12:22
Now, if the Lord has brought
prosperity to you

:12:26
or if you have enjoyed success
in Christian service,

:12:30
take heed that you do not
lift up your head on high.

:12:35
For, kindred,
:12:37
the tendency of the human heart
towards pride is very strong,

:12:42
but we must always remember
that we are nothing more than tools

:12:46
in the hands of the Lord.
:12:48
We have been nothing more than
the scythes in the hands of God

:12:52
if we reap the corn,
:12:54
nothing more than the nets
if we have brought the fish to shore.

:13:00
So, let us learn from the sins...
:13:05
Sin is limiting the power
of the gospel.

:13:10
Some of us, at certain times,
:13:12
have been inclined
to limit the power of the gospel

:13:15
by supposing
that only certain sinners...

:13:20
...by supposing that only certain
sinners obtain the grace of God.

:13:31
Grand sermon, John.
:13:33
One hour and 15 minutes. Let them
beat that in Edinburgh if they can.

:13:37
And mind ye,
every sentence sound theology.
