All of the things. A few Sundays ago I was praying and asking God that he’d bring the full package and he did that Sunday it was amazing. And encourages us to. Live right do what’s right follow God fight the good fight amen. So first off I want to say happy father’s day and we’re going to go into talking about judgment and condemnation this morning but first off.

▶ 43:27 In 20 in the year 2020 we had a pandemic and we’re still in it sort of but I wanted to point out something in this pandemic they came up with rules. Some of the signs here it says be smart stay six feet apart wear a mask save a life limit contact to 10 minutes stop the spread. You see this one down here it says meet nobody not even him and in the red letters it says careless hookups cost lives. And so here are the some of the slogans stay safe be smart stay six feet apart and they come up with rhymes. We’re all in this together watching you know and you’re watching shows and the advertisements come up and you know at the end they’re just so positive like we’re all in this together we’re gonna it’s okay and you got famous people up there and I mean the message I saw was very pop.

▶ 44:29 You know positive for. You know we can do this. Stay home. Wash your hands cover your face stop the spread wear a mask and I’m not you know I’m not going to get into what we shouldn’t or shouldn’t have done or all that what I’m my point is. Is that American government and corporations made rules they communicated their message in advertisements in the news they made judgmental statements they enforced the rules people complied they were telling the [unclear] sexually immoral not to hook up. And right now they’re promoting a vaccine. And my point is do we not have. A much better message.

▶ 45:24 That people may say is judgmental. But they just did it. They judged people for standing too close they judged people for not wearing a mask and here we are with the gospel the best message in the whole world. And it is so much greater. Than the pandemic rules the gospel message. Is valid it it should be preached so when somebody comes up to you and says oh that’s judgmental that’s you’re pushing it they pushed it on us they pushed it on the whole world. To in in an effort to save lives right well God wants to save your eternal life he wants to save your earthly life.

▶ 46:22 So the next time somebody says. The gospel is judgmental just don’t even listen. You know they’re judgmental. We all have to make judgments. You know you wake up you got to make 10 12 judgments. You know all of a sudden they want to throw you know God out because it’s judgmental everything’s judgmental okay. Repent turn away from sin strengthen your spiritual man by spiritual exercise you know you don’t tell me that my spirit is weak that’s judgmental flee the very appearance of evil that’s judgmental repent believe the God that’s just hide God’s word in your heart that’s positive. Respect your body like the temple it is. Don’t you realize that you are the temple of the Holy Spirit this is talking about being sexually.

▶ 47:22 Immoral. So that’s the first part I just want to encourage everyone listening that God’s word God’s message is way more important than what we just went through in the past year and it should be promoted even if you know and and they had opposition we opposed the stuff that they still got their message out so when we come with the gospel and they oppose doesn’t matter you know they had government on their side they had the corporations on their side they had the news on their side but who do we have on our side we have God on our side and he can get things through better than the news better than government and better than corporations. So I encourage you.

▶ 48:16 The gospel message is the most important message we’re going to talk about judgment this morning going into that as we know in Matthew 7 says judge not that you be not judged hypocrite first remove the plank in your own eye and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye it’s funny you know he says judge not but then he says you need to remove the plank out of your eye so you can remove the plank from somebody else’s eye so you know there’s some judging that’s going on all right. The spec uh the Pharisees were a good example of this Matthew 12:2 the Pharisees saw when the Pharisees saw they said to him look your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath they were plucking heads of grain and eating them you know walking through.

▶ 49:08 Oh my gosh you violated the Sabbath. And of course Jesus healed on the Sabbath he did a good thing on the Sabbath. And. The Pharisees had a plank in their eye you are witnesses against yourselves that you are the sons of those murdered those who murdered the prophets. And when they stood before Jesus and accused him. They just asked him are you the son of God and Jesus response is I am and I said what further testimony this guy deserves to death. They rejected the son of God and that was their plank in their eye a big plank in their eye they’re complaining to him about not following the Sabbath when they are rejecting God’s son a much bigger deal.

▶ 50:11 First Corinthians we’re going to be taking up communion this morning in first Corinthians chapter 11 verse 27 it says let a man examine himself so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup for he who eats of and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks to himself. Not discerning. The lord’s body and that the word discerning means to separate to make a distinction. And I want to ex uh go in that this morning the lord’s body what does it mean what are we doing when we separate when we make a distinction. And so God’s body we know in first Corinthians chapter 10 verse 16 we are the church though many are one bread and one body for we all partake in one bread and there’s other verses that explain that we are the church the many membered body of God when God is talking about the body when we take communion that is us.

▶ 51:12 We. Are part of that Hebrews 10:24 let us consider how we may encourage one another spur one another toward love and good deeds not giving up meeting together forsake not the assembling of yourselves together as some are in the habit of doing but let us encourage one another we this morning we experienced a wonderful encouraging time from God Jesus and later on when we fellowship we’re going to encourage one another to keep doing what’s right you know just you guys being here as a young person is encouraging you guys just saying hello smiling it’s good to see you you know as a young person growing up that’s that’s encouraging. Because I can see your life. I don’t know how to explain it but I’m just telling you from a young person’s perspective you know you being here you uh being good people being good examples that has an effect.

▶ 52:12 But I want to. Go back to this word discern make a distinction make a separation. And today in America or in your life are you making the church a day a distinct. Are you separating it from all other social groups and gatherings we have to understand this morning that the church the assembly of God’s people is the greatest gathering in all of the world in God’s eyes it is bigger than the senate getting together it is bigger than the house of representatives getting better it is bigger than the Chinese communist party getting together it’s bigger than the rulers and and kings of nations gathering together the church of God is distinct it is separate.

▶ 53:11 And do we as Christians regard God’s house in that way the most important social gathering not I’m sorry that’s not what it is I’m sorry. It’s the most important assembly that this world has the church and that is what God is saying it is separate it is distinct and if we are rejecting. Do do we make it a priority in a lot in our lives do we separate time in our life for the church and if we’re rejecting the church we’re rejecting who Jesus Christ himself. And of course we know that the bread the body he said take eat this is my body is also the word I’m the living I’m the living bread Jesus said which came down from heaven if anyone eats of this bread he will live forever.

▶ 54:07 Matthew 4 verse 4 it is written man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God and young people need to understand this do we hold God’s word in higher in the highest regard we know we have been taught that the word is above his name we’re you know the word is the highest thing. And see this one we know very well God’s word is above all other words is his most important word I don’t care if the edict comes from the American government the Chinese government I’m using you know their big government. Or some other nation or some great person. The highest word in all of the world is God’s word and we as young people have to separate an old people whoever you are you got to make a distinction God’s word is higher than all other words higher than all other people’s words the famous people and you go on YouTube you know young people they go what youtuber is that have you seen that youtuber.

▶ 55:26 They did that thing on the that youtuber did. Do we regard and listen to God’s word above other people God’s philosophies ideologies you go to college there’s a lot of ideologies you go spend time with people that are living in sin they got they’ve got pulled in all kinds of of ideas and philosophies from other places but God’s word is the highest take eat this is my body. Matthew 15:30. They laid them down at Jesus’s feet and he healed them this was a person who was lame in his feet and we know that God Jesus did many miracles. And Jesus’s name was spread throughout the land and people would come and get healing and you know if I was in that day I would be gone if I had an ailment I’d be going to Jesus and say hey can you help me out.

▶ 56:21 Right we would be doing that Luke 8:41 behold there came a man named Jairus he fell down at Jesus’s feet he begged him to come to his house for he had an only daughter about 12 years of age and she was dying her name was brooklyn. And can you imagine one of your children. Being in that situation it’d be very hard and you’d be looking for an answer and Jesus was the answer in that day. But in Luke chapter 10 verse 38 she had a sister called Mary who also I’m sorry we’re talking about Martha Martha. Had a sister called Mary who sat at Jesus’s feet and heard his word. And Martha was busy working doing things and you know I if I was there in that situation I can understand Martha’s situation like hey I’m doing all this work and you’re over there talking and chatting it up.

▶ 57:24 But uh she wasn’t just talking she was sitting there she was listening. And uh she Martha says to Jesus hey you know send Martha over here but Jesus response was one thing is needed and Mary has chosen that good part which will not be taken from her and what I’m trying to say here is the distinction of just coming. To Jesus. Because he’s your God he’s your king because you love him not trying to get something out of him not trying to get a healing out of him not trying to get him to solve your financial crisis but coming to him because you love you want to hear what he has to say and that is making Jesus separate distinct you know in your life you know when you get married you know I know you guys know what that is you you kind of separate this person out from all the other people right you they’re distinct they’re separate uh and you and you commit to that person you get married.

▶ 58:34 And that’s the way we’ve got to treat Jesus of course. The cup he also had the cup. He said this is my body take eat this is my body and he says this is my the cup drink from it all of you for this is my blood of the new covenant which is shed for many for the remission of sins. And we’ve got to understand that the death of Jesus. Is separate it is distinct if somebody saved your life in a battle or saved your life out in the world and they took a bullet for you and they did something for you saved your life pulled you from a raging river their death. Is not does it pales in comparison to the death of Jesus Christ for your sin so that you could have eternal.

▶ 59:30 Life. The death of our our fallen soldiers who gave us freedom as wonderful as that is in America the death of Jesus is more distinct is is higher than that and have we accepted the remission of I’m sorry the blood for the remission of our sins the removal and the cleansing. So going back to this Corinthians. Chapter 11. Partaking of communion in a worthy manner are we following God’s word above other words do we prioritize God’s church and recognize it as the best assembly this world has to offer.

▶ 1:00:25 Do we seek Jesus and spend time with him. Do we obtain the cleansing of sin from his blood. And I know you guys are not the sinful people I had this prepared for so I’m just kidding no we all need the cleansing of sin from his blood amen. When we do not regard the body the church Jesus himself the word and the blood of Christ we it says here for this reason many are weak sick among you and many sleep meaning. Sin is creeping in their lives like a disease and it is destroying them many sleep talking about death their spiritual man is asleep it is dead when you do not make these things important.

▶ 1:01:26 When you do not make God’s house important make Jesus important make his word the most important and his blood the most important you are going to be weak sick and even spiritually dead. And so Paul says here if we would judge ourselves. We would not be judged. And this is I mean where kind of who said this. I mean I live in America don’t judge me. I you know that’s the message right now. I’m who I am or I’m finding who I am give I can’t I can’t remember what they say but right now this statement judge yourself is completely. Not in the message today I’ll tell you right now accept me for who I am.

▶ 1:02:26 This message judge yourself. Is. Off of America’s radar when you look at the lost son he took his portion from his father he left his father and this story signifies God. He wasted his portion on wild living sex drugs rock and roll. And then a famine came and he began to be in want he joined up with another fool in that country. And he suffered hunger. But the Bible says. That he came to himself. In Luke he at one point this sinner this lost sheep. Came to himself because he judged himself and he said what am I doing.

▶ 1:03:21 It took time I I don’t know why he didn’t realize this before I don’t know why it takes so long. And we hate it you know why don’t you just get it why don’t you understand. You gotta waste 20 years of your life. Or more. When he came to himself he said how many of my father’s hired servants have bred enough to spare and I perish with hunger so here the prodigal son is basically judging himself. And he said and he comes up with the solution I will arise go to my father and I’ll say to him father I have sinned against heaven and before you again I have sinned you’re judging yourself you’re saying I’ve done what is wrong I’m no word I’m no longer worthy to be called your son make me like one of your hired servants.

▶ 1:04:19 And so. Judge yourself James 1:23 talks about the mirror whoever looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work this one hat will be blessed in what he. Does. We have God’s word today. We as Christians can go to God’s word and allow it to judge us and tell us hey we need to wake up. Very simple. It goes on to say in first Corinthians 11:31. When we are judged. We are chastened by the Lord that we may not be condemned with the world.

▶ 1:05:18 So first of all. We’re not to we are supposed to make a distinction. In God’s body and his blood we are to judge yourself. And now he says when we are judged not if but when and you know we are judged why because we don’t always judge ourselves. When we are judged we are chastened by the Lord. That we may not be condemned with the world so God’s chastening his correction is so that he can save us from. Condemnation. Proverbs 3:11 my son do not despise the chastening of the Lord nor to test his correction for whom the Lord loves he corrects.

▶ 1:06:13 Just as a father the son in whom he delights. On our on this father’s day we’re reminded. That God our father will correct his children and we are his children. Saul was corrected in the Bible in first Samuel 15 24. He said to Samuel I have sinned I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord because I feared the people and obeyed their voice and God saying yeah you did. So here he rejected the word like we talked about earlier he made other people’s words more important than God’s word just what we just went over. And Saul here he says now therefore please pardon my sin return with me and we may worship the Lord basically he wants to get out of the situation without any any uh punishment.

▶ 1:07:11 And God’s saying no no no no. It’s not that easy. Uh. My kids hate it when I say this but they’ll they’ll say I’m sorry sorry I said sorry. Stuff your sorry’s in a sack. Don’t give me you’re sorry. Sorry it’s not gonna work here you know Saul is trying to get off with a sorry God oh sorry. Sorry. I didn’t listen to you sorry. No you’re a king Saul you’ve been anointed by God to be king and you’re gonna give me a sorry.

▶ 1:08:05 That’s not how it. Works. But Samuel said to Saul I will not return with you you rejected the word of the Lord the Lord has rejected you from being king so now we have a correction from God. Is Saul okay with this correction. No. For years later Saul is trying to stay being king and he is pursuing David and he is angry with David because he wants to kill him because he knows David is what going to be king. And so Saul does not want to let go of his position when God has corrected him saying you’re not king anymore. And if Saul had let go. And accepted God’s correction he probably would have ended up a lot better.

▶ 1:09:03 I mean he was going through torments from evil spirits you guys remember this right he was tormented by evil spirits he died in battle. Slain with his sons. You know if he had just accepted God’s correction and did what God wanted to do I think he would have been in a different spot. But we don’t like God’s. Correction. I’m not really old enough to speak to this. But as a young person. I I’m very observant. And I’m very proud to be part of the church when I look at your guys lives and see what you’ve had to go through and what you’ve come out of and what God’s done for you it really is truly amazing.

▶ 1:10:00 And I’m proud to be. Your your little brother. And look at your life observe uh you know God’s correction you know not correction but just the chastening right comes you can observe even a little bit and you see when you come out on the other side God really blesses your life. And. Uh. I’m hopeful. If there’s no price to pay you’ll just do it. Again Saul’s response you don’t have to be king I’m sorry. I’ve already said that David was corrected he committed adultery with Bathsheba and murdered her husband Uriah I mean jeez this is big stuff.

▶ 1:10:59 I mean two hell sins right there take you straight to hell. 2 Samuel 12:11. The correction that came was adversity against you from your own house he was going to receive adversity from his own house he his wives were going to be given to a neighbor and the child that him in Bathsheba had was going to die. And he says an important statement here by this deed you have given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme. And that’s important to remember when we do these sins and we do it for everyone to see we are really bringing down I mean we’re not bringing down God’s name but you’re giving an occasion for people to say oh look what he did and you’re okay with that God he can’t he can’t let that happen he’s got to be just and fair.

▶ 1:12:00 But Nathan says to him Lord has put away your sin you shall not die I find it very interesting that God did not take away him from being king. You realize that Saul was taken away from being king now I know mr thompson already knows the answer. And I think it’s either he had a heart after God and God knew that if he corrected David he would not do it again. Or. Because David. Blessed the Lord at all times but that might be something else but I think it was because he had a heart after God and that is important is your heart. Responsive to God’s correction when he comes to correct you do you respond. And we can go to God’s word we don’t necessarily have to wait for him to bring a hammer down we can go to God’s word and see oh I violated this thing.

▶ 1:13:01 And that’s what Paul is saying you can judge yourself we’ve got the we got the whole book we can judge ourselves. Hebrews 12:7 if you endure chastening God deals with you as sons and daughters. For what son is there whom a father does not chasten. I guess all the daughters did not get. Chastened. No correction for the daughters. I’m joking. Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present but painful nevertheless afterward it heals the pre peaceful peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it and that’s what I was saying earlier. Many of you have gone through chastening and it is painful.

▶ 1:13:56 But in the end it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness. And in spending time with many of you I know that God has brought you through things and it has yielded fruits of righteousness and it’s awesome to observe and see. So God’s questions for us. Well we are examine ourselves. Do you hold the church Jesus and his word in the highest regard do you hold God’s word in the highest regard above everybody else’s word do you hold the church of the living God in the most highest regard over every other gathering and assembly. Even in this. Room.

▶ 1:14:49 At [unclear] highway you know we do not have all the glory and pomp of the United States Senate but God. Views this gathering higher than all of those. Do you value Jesus seeking him finding him knowing him above. Other people. Have you received the blood of Jesus to cleanse you from sin. Do you judge your own behavior will you say to yourself. Self that was not the good way to go. And are you willing to endure God’s correction unlike Saul who would not. Who refused God’s correction will we be like.

▶ 1:15:41 David and accept it repent from it. And God is asking us this morning. Examine yourself. Examine yourself. And in taking communion this morning as as they prepare the communion first Corinthians chapter 11 23. It says in the scriptures as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup you proclaim the lord’s death till he comes he Jesus says this is the new covenant in my blood. I will put my law in their minds and inscribe it in their hearts I will be their God they will be my people no longer shall each man teach his neighbor or his brother know the Lord but they all shall know me from the least to the greatest.

▶ 1:16:42 And I will forgive their iniquities and remember their sins no more this is the new covenant. Is God your God this morning. Has God put his word in your heart inscribed in your mind. Do you know the Lord do you recognize that it does not matter who you are God. We can know God from the least to the greatest. And that God can forgive all our iniquities all of our sins let’s bow our heads this morning. As they prepare. Communion. Lord Jesus we come before you this morning Jesus.

▶ 1:17:34 Lord as a church that you value so highly. In all of the world God we here examine. Ourselves we take time right now Lord Jesus to recognize that your word is the highest. The highest word in all of the world God. Jesus that your church is the greatest. Assembly in all the world Jesus right now we recognize. That you are the greatest. God in all the world. Lord Jesus that your death is the most important God right now we recognize that Lord Jesus Lord Jesus without you. We are nothing. God.

▶ 1:18:26 Lord Jesus we come before you this morning and God we pray Lord God that we would be like David receiving correction. Lord Jesus that we would not reject your correction like Saul. But Lord God that we would have a heart after God. Or willing to respond. Willing to listen willing to obey. Jesus. In your precious name this morning God we thank you for what you’ve done and Lord God this morning as we prepare to take communion God we proclaim your death this morning Lord Jesus to remind the world God that you died on the cross Lord that you can save us from sin that you cleanse us. And God Lord that you are the most important and separate and distinct person on all of the world and in all of history God we thank you this morning.

▶ 1:19:34 Gonna invite the worship team on up. And we’re gonna sing a song. Clean. And renew a right spirit. Within me. Created.

▶ 1:20:30 Me. And renew our right spirit. Within. Me. Cast me not. Away. From thy. Presence. Holy. And. Take not thy Holy. Spirit from me. Restore. Unto. Me.

▶ 1:21:24 The joy of my salvation. And renew a right spirit. Within. Me. As we prepared as we prepare to take God’s. The bread this morning. We’re reminded of that example of the [unclear]. Who gave his life for her children. Just like Jesus gave his life for us. And this morning God says that when we eat his body when we eat his word when we. Seek him and when we are part of that church he will abide in us.

▶ 1:22:19 And we will abide in him and that is so important we need God in our lives just like the song said emmanuel God with us this morning as we take the bread. We need God abiding in us speaking to us living in us making us a new creature the Bible says therefore if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation I’m going to ask Mr. Daigle to pray for the bread before we take it ask God to bless it please go ahead Terry. Jesus right now this time. People are getting vaccinated with the COVID shot and they’re saying they’re identifying with it saying that this will make me whole this will protect me I identify with what everybody is telling us and saying that this is a good thing and yet there’s some that don’t believe it they’re not a part of it Lord but today all heartedly 100 God we in this body here take this bread as a member of your body Lord identifying with all that you’ve taught us all that you’re teaching us all that you instruct us Lord we are a part of the body of christ.

▶ 1:23:46 Let’s take the bread. In the same way God took the blood the cup and he said this is the cup of my new covenant. Like we stated before. His death on the cross. His sacrifice for us. It was God who died on the cross. So I’m going to ask Paul to pray for the cup this morning before we take. One it that matters that we may be here today. You are dead for our salvation Lord we cannot thank you.
