A King's Ransom For The Rancid - Bro Nathanael Howell 3-28-2025

Brother Caleb.

Amen, I am so thankful for Amen, this opportunity. Amen,

uh Man want to stay. Amen, that I treasure for

Bethel Hole in his church and each one of you,

and then our treasure all that God's doing.

Amen.

As I begin to think about the Bethel Hole in

his church and the many blessings and the way God

works here, and Amen, we can trust him and depend

on him to move.

Amen.

It is always, Amen, a thing of beauty when you

can have confidence in.

The fact that God's gonna come by.

Amen.

But we've seen many men suffer. It's been to their

detriment because Amen. And who's behind the hymn? Amen, And

just for a moment, I would like to say, Amen,

how thankful I am for my pastor.

Amen.

If you look back through history, you will see there

are no doubt where.

Many past Amen.

In reality, there were many a man that took on

the role of a pastoral leaders of pastoral leadership.

Amen.

Then you've seen Amen, some that were Amen, were builders.

Amen.

Maybe they've used they've used as Solomon did what was

laid up Amen before them, and they became the builders

of that generation.

Amen. You've got those who, no doubt they're dreamers. Amen.

As you look back, you can see amen's men such

as this, and when you've got men like Charles Spurgeon, Amen,

Lynn Head and John Gabbard, Amen, people like Benny Sutherland.

Amen.

In mind, I say our pastor, Amen, that they were

more than a pastor. They were a pastor, they were

a visionary and they were a builder.

Amen.

We've seen many Amen leave Amen behind little Amen. If

you think about it in reality, there are very few

men even today that you can look to, Amen and

look at what they've left behind, Amen, and say, Wow,

they built something to God's glory.

You've got to let the facts speak. Now.

There are many pastors that took churches running Amen, forty

and fifty and they left it with twenty, they.

Left it with fifteen. They took churches running two.

Hundred and three hundred, Amen, and now they're running eighty

and sixty.

Amen.

There are very few that you would say, Amen, they

started with that pastor, Amen, with.

Four or five Amen, and now they're running eighty.

Amen.

That is to God's glory. Amen.

And it is also for you to let facts speak

to you, Amen, and give you clarity and vision, Amen,

and let you Amen, have a reality check and let

you aven realize how we must treasure Amen. A man

such as this Amen. Someone told me recently they were

looking through a book, Amen, and they said that book

was as rare as Hen's teeth. Amen. A pastor that is,

a pastor, a visionaire, and a builder.

Amen. A man of God is rareer than Hen's teeth.

Amen.

We're gonna look at Matthew chapter number sixteen. The Lord

gave this to me.

Amen, and I have not been able to get away

from it. And I don't know that I've had a message, Amen.

Amen.

Or stay with me and amen be on me as

constantly and honestly, Amen, I don't know that I've had

a message Amen, that I was going to preach change

me a man.

As much as this one has. I mean it has been.

It has been a bird, It has been a constant God.

I mean, I could not get away from it.

Amen.

And Amen. I was much in prayer about this service,

and this is how the Lord directed me.

Amen.

If many of you recall, and I come tonight in

faith believe, and if many of you recall at the

beginning of this month, Amen, our pastor said, Amen, he

believed God had something special.

Prepared for this you service.

I mean I have not negated that, I have not

forgotten by I have treasured and held on to that

with expectancy to see God work may been a new

thing Amen, in somebody's life, a new change.

Amen, Matthew Chapman number sixteen.

We're gonna look at verses number twenty six and twenty seven.

Amen.

I desire your prayers. Aymen, we miss all those that

are out. Even their absences can be felled A man

a week ask God to touch them. Amen, Matthew sixteen

twenty six. They man, For what is a man profited

if he shall gain the whole world and lose his

own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange

for his soul? For the son of man shall come

in the glory of his Father with his angels, and

then he.

Shall reward every man according to his works. Amen.

Stretch your hands toward heaven a man asking God to

help us. Amen in this service. Tonight, Lord, would.

You help me? I'm least God among the Lord God.

I need you.

I desire the anointing God that will buscrew and break

and shadder.

Destroy and leave.

Lo Y God, Lord, I ask God for the unnaornting

that would de correct God.

And then my fault process, Lord, my vocapulary.

Lord, Lord, I ask for the unnaughty of God that

would come by a Lord. And God give me understanding

that I have not Lord, and wisdom more that only.

Comes from the Lord. Lord. I ask for that living

word God to be alive in me.

God, speak to these people. Lord, help us in this

offor service. God, help us, Lord God, to get a

hold of this and treasure and hold on to it

all the days of our life. God, that we might

not sin against You and Jesus' Namely ask and praise,

prays God, and thank.

You for praise God.

Amen again reading that, for what is the man profeted

if he shall gain the whole world and lose his

own soul?

Or what shall a man give in exchange for a soul?

And then, for a little while I would like to

preach your message. I feel like the whole legost is

titled a king's ransom for the rancid a man, a

king's ransom for the rancid?

Amen?

And then now value Amen is susceptible. Amen. When I

began to study and thing on this.

Three things in my mind, I begin Aman to think

in three things.

In my mind, I've found that value could be.

Susceptible to even one being desired, one being emotion, and

one being a mount. And then for Amen, for those

that have amen, something dear to them, Amen, something Amen.

The because of an emotional connection, Amen, it becomes priceless

a man.

It may not be valuable to everybody else. And then

but to them, you'd hear them say things like.

I wouldn't give the world for that, Amen, or you'd

hear them say I give the world to have that.

Amen. So emotional attachment.

A man can cause people's personal perception.

Of vow you to differ.

Amen.

Here also, Amen, those things that are rare seemingly are

affected because and if there isn't enough to go around, Amen,

you ask, Amen, how is that? And go to the

supermarket and look for some chickennecks tonight Amen, if you

will find Amen, because there ain't enough to go around.

The matter now, amb, the desire and the need Amen

has warranted a vow you increase.

Amen, Praise God.

Now, there there are other things, Amen, And if you

look at humanity, Amen, praise God's desire often affects Amen.

People's percepting a vow, you a man, because humanity is different,

and then bury diverse in nature, in appetite and perspective,

in opinions. Amen, and all may value something with varying

degrees of worth. Amen, And I'll give you, amen, just

a moment, Amen to think about this and your spouse

and amen, you hate they enjoyed, And then you all

know already Brother Nathaniel hate pickles. Amen, And I would

spend my five dollars on a pack of pickles for nothing,

but sister Rachel would love to get.

A pack of pickles.

They met at the local convenience stre so here they

been humanity's.

Desire, they man.

They will vary what someone sees as valuable. They been humanities,

They meant in the thought process. They men can change

what someone sees as valuable. They humane of these appetites.

They man can change what someone sees as valuable.

They ben. If Jesus would ask him a question, what

shall a.

Man deal it exchange for a soul?

They been, what would you trade it for? What would

you let get it? The way of it? What would

you swap it for?

What would you.

Spend it on?

They been?

Why the man denied. It's your perspective on sounds. Now

he saw.

It's proven that mankind can failed or properly value. They

meant that which is in their possession and their control.

We're all familiar with the story of He saw. They

been in hell because in.

A moment of desire, he traded a man a greater blessing.

In a moment of desire, he traded something of greater.

Worth they met.

In a moment of desire, he traded something that was

far superior.

They meant to a bowl of beans, they meant. But

there are many to day they men that are trading

something far more valuable. They met.

They're an extra blessing. They meant for Poorisia. They been

in the devil's.

House, they men.

They're eating the other. They've been in the table of devils.

They met in time to partake of thoughts table.

They meant, and they.

Don't realize the whole time they've exchanged it.

They meant for what amen they.

Thought was worth, something holy to find and left them hungry.

Parent and tie themen today, My mercy will change it

for you.

Desire can change it for you. Aman. It be amount

of which are.

Consuming things quit change and desire and your thought process

of what is valuable? Right, like to call to you

just for a moment to contemplate and consider the worth

of your soul. It's gonna be hard to do, I know,

I Man, this may be one of them things that

are far out there.

Amen. That maybe Amen, I got it. I mean all

up and attending in my mind.

Amen.

But if I can use my finite mind to even

paint a small picture, Amen, I'm gonna attempt to do that.

Amen.

Today he man, and tonight, I could bring one dollar

and into this poolpit and I can.

Offer to trade somebody that dollar for.

One hundred dollar bill, Ayman, and I believe he's one

of you. Amen, would would not trade me or take

me up on that bill? And then, because you understand

and recognize a man one hundred dollars dula has superioror.

Value, Amen, into a one dollar bill.

And then I believe in tonight, if the pastor Howe

is the gift brother Josh at twenty twenty five, Amen,

Chevy Camaro, let him make it, Amen, Praise God, a

one of one.

Let him put fins on it.

They then let him customize the interior in your favorite

colored brother, Josh, they may let.

You, amen, paint the rim what you wanted them.

They man an island to go, Amen to the scrap

yard and bring it old nineteen nineties.

Hot the citic in here a cupping and a button,

and then in a spun and.

A ask you trade me. And then oh, look out

beautiful she is, Oh amen, look at the age older,

and how defendable she is.

Look how many people are driving her. They man, you

would have the common sense to know you can't afford

to buy her back, to know you may never hold

up another, to know that man is not with it,

no power to partase it out what so.

Many people are losing battle which is vulnerable.

Nor they'll never belave to buy it back.

Of thoughts, Gas doesn't afford him an opportunity.

That's silent shine, Oh God, friendly fail.

I don't understand what's at stake. A man. We have

made a man a terrible, terrible mistake.

Now we've all heard those stories a man of how

someone sold it. A man are painting at the good

Will and they threw it away in the trash, and

good Will said, well, I'll.

Get five bucks out of it.

There ten dollars, and then only for someone that recognized

value to come by, they ben and buying.

She'd sell it options they been for five hundred.

Thousand dollars, for a million, for ten million, a man,

you hear value, man, let woman? They find they got

part of old Aunt Gertrude's under the lamp, but a man,

and they.

Seld it up the yards hell for five dollars and

then watched.

Someone collect fifteen million dollars. And then these things have

happened A man, what was it?

Was it?

Because because of the possession of amen, the value fluctuated.

Know, they been that person that didn't recognize it, that

had a setting in the garage or the atticcol in

years and man, it.

Was still worth just as much a neglected value.

It still voulue.

And then I'll get a trained for souls and exchange

yourself for something.

It ain't work too, han't said? And then that it

ain't work for a moment of pleasure, ain't a passing?

Says that? Or something that's lasting. Go aymen incordently satisfiying

and first quantic because you want the estimate. It's worst.

Oh god, I mean Luke fifteen and eight is a

very familiar portion of scripture.

Amen.

The Bible said, Amen that she amen had ten pieces

of silver.

Amen, she loses one, Amen, and she lights a candle.

It's night time. She lights a candle. And again she

sweeped the house, and she diligently till she find it.

Aymen in here, Amen, tony, I don't know which of

you among us if you've lost it, Amen, if you've lost.

That rare treasure.

Amen, Brothers, brother, Jesse, mother Philip, If y'all passed, ay Man,

I just like to imagine the nine These are souls.

If you can bear with me tonight, and then, these

are souls, young people. You only get one. You only

get one. You only get one opportunity to get this thing.

You only get one chance at this thing.

Amen. But many people will offer you, Amen.

Things that are far less valuable than your soul.

Now. I know they're black, I know they're dark.

I know it's hard to see what's inside. And that's

where Jesus found each one of us, in a place

of begredence, in a place of disgusting fail for why Amen,

in the sewage of sin, theymen confessed of vala.

They been with all the filth Amen of sin of

miss Luca. Amen, and we amen, we're in a terrible shape.

But he looked.

Beyond it, and Saul of Valgie, who looked beyond it

and said it's worth it. Who look beyond it? That

I'll be that which is Amen? Unsurmountab Amen?

Do they been parted them? The king's ransom was paid

for the rancid. That word rancid means rotten, smelly, fowl tasting.

Oh God, Now this woman, she begins to sweep her house.

She begins to look, and man, no doubt.

Amen.

Many say she would have had a dirt floor. So Amen,

she began to look. She began to sweep the dirt,

and then she began to see is it under there?

Oh God, what I do with it? Oh God? Where'd

I lose it? And then she found it? Amen.

She wondered a man wear it had dawned. She wondered

what she had done with it. She wondered where she

lost it.

Amen. You ever been there? Where after a day at

work you get home and say, Lord Lord, I lose

my my soul.

God of us, they mean to give a minute. You say, yes,

I've been there. When Amen, I laughed at the Curdie

Turga to blend in with the other black souls.

Amen. I took a moment up, Amen, going to blend

me up and cut off about something.

They've been filthy and disgusting all thought I put out

of him when.

I got home and some mail can I lose it?

I traded for something passing. I traded for something trading.

It wasn't valuable.

I'll never be able to get it at Gayla without

your gaze.

And I traded it. Oh God.

Right.

The King's Ransom, yes, Amen, of the Lord, believe it

or not, had led me. I had my title, and

the Lord led me to this story, Amen, through an

audio book.

And then he made aything that's crazy, but he did.

And then when the two met to come together, and

then just confirmation for a little or nothing, Amen, the

termina and I didn't know this. The turner King's Ransom

comes from around eleven ninety two and King Richards, and

King Richard was returning from his third crusade and then

he was shipwrecked somewhere along the coast of Austria.

Amen. And here Amen, he began to think it's a good.

Idea to venture a foot into Duke Leopold's territory.

Now there is some history there. Amen, at the Battle

of Acre.

Amen, when there was time to go and get this

fall Amen, King Richard had told Leopold, Amen, you aren't

welcome to it.

Amen.

He hadn't let him partake of the goods. And now

here he is going afoot and Themberbella jesse. To add

injury to insole, he had also and then thrown his

standard off the ramparts and man that they got split

in a king's face, and then to throw the man

and then disgrace and then his banner, and then what

he fights for the representation of his homeland and man.

And King Richard had done this. And now he goes to.

Food into Austria and then praise God through the Leopold's

territory and man.

And it's not too.

Wise about what he does, but he stops a couple

of villages over and then from Venice to capital city,

and he sends a young.

Man ahead and then with a bag of gold into

the market.

And then, of course, in that day and age, a

bag of gold drew a lot of attention, and then

everybody realized, hey, he's got money. And man.

And then the little simpleton also had cut the glove.

Amen, they're saying his waistband. And then in own that

was the king's symbol a man. Now do the Leopold's

men recognize him? And then no doubt they had a

graduate also, Amen, because what they had been fighting for

they man have been stripped from there.

So they follow this young man back in the village

and have no trouble at all. Resting, Amen, King Richard.

Now they set the ransom here, and then they tell

even England, if you want your king back, the price

you must play is one hundred and fifty marks of silver.

Now, silver at this time was worth more money than

gold was.

And then because of the before and then people they man,

I forget which the people that was, But before and

then I believe it was the span years they've been

bothing influx. They've meant from the America a man of

such things as silver and gold, and they ben drove

them in the silver market and the gold market down.

They remember, the sum of one hundred and fifty marks

is sixty two thousand pounds of silver.

That's a lot of silver. Friend, That's what they set

a king's ransom at this is where the term come from.

Know this, Amen, I was listening. I like robin Hood.

Amen, y'all bear with me if you don't, amen, I

was listening this Robinhood story. Hold amen, with this on

my mind.

Amen. They begin to talk about King Richard and his ransom.

Amen.

And how amen.

And this was all where they say the Lord Robinhood

also begin Amen.

But how Robinhood helped the rings that? Amen?

But here amen, praise God. And if you would think

about with this with me? Theymen and understand exactly how

much money and how much value?

Amen?

They were asking. So then the question became, what does

England think of their king?

How much are they willing to pay for here? And

then how much are they rolling back?

Amen? So here they raise the money Amen. And I

believe it was around eleven ninety four King.

Richard finally comes home. Now y'all bear with me while amen,

I geek out for a moment.

Amen.

Jesus.

It is estimated to have died, been buried, and resurrected

approximately two thousand years ago.

Do you worn't of sixty two thousand pounds and then?

Or one hundred and fifty thousand marks of silver in

today's money would be three plus billion dollars.

According to one history and that has researched this.

Now, in the last two thousand years, they estimate anywhere

from one hundred to one hundred and eight billion people

have walked planet Earth. If you tally this, amen, an estimate. Amen,

If you are to say, well, I believe every soul

is at least worth what King Richard was, then you

must pay three point three billion dollars for brother Philip

and Brother Tyler and so on and so forth, And

for the last two thousand years you would have had

to do it. And now, friends, you would be at

a grand total of three hundred and thirty trillion dollars.

It would take you approximately two million, six hundred and

thirty thousand, two.

Hundred and forty four years to even count that long.

Let me read it to you again.

Two million, six hundred and thirty three thousand, two hundred

and forty.

Four years for you to count that loan.

That's not including ayven breaks, supper, breakfast, that's not including sleep.

They even say they calculated that that wouldn't even include

the time it took you in hell. So I want

you to understand these numbers for a minute, because I said,

and I'm gonst slow down.

I understand, I want to paint a picture that you

never forget. And then of the value God put on

your life, I can't even use and in our imagination

to understand it.

Brothers there, Amen and Pastor would tell me tonight a

soul is worth more than three million dollar.

I would say, I completely agreed. Isn't worth the world?

I mean a poll in twenty twenty.

Once in Earth and all of her precious minerals for woods,

her stones, her marbles.

And then all of that, and then her diamonds, her rubies, and.

Then all of that, and then Earth's value would be

somewhere around thirty eight quad trillion dollars. Amen, that is

thirty eight with fifteen zeros behind it times.

One hundred billion. And then I'm just factor in. Since

Jesus I believe he paid the ransom for.

Every man, woman, boy and girl, right. I say that

because Abraham was hold.

Up in the Father's bosom waiting on a taken out, and.

When Jesus dining, he went down, they made a rescue

them that paid the ransom, and then they were able

they bet to be taken out of there.

They met, so chuck for a moment. Let me just

have been trying to.

Break it down to where numbers can even afford to

calculate it.

Thirty eight quarter.

Trillion dollars times one hundred billion is three point eight

optillion dollars.

That is three with twenty seven zeros behind it.

Now I wanna say, I want to give brother Josh

a chance. They meant to buy his salvation. I know

you can't bear with me. I want to prove to

you you can't. I want to prove to you Elon

must Camp.

I want to prove to you that this your soul

is far more valuable than a laugh on the job.

It's time the viable.

Then I cut your soul.

It's farmer viable. Then a second glance, that sem.

Three point eight oct billion dollars they be it's a

brother Jaws. And then we're gonna let you get to

ten years old, and may I then give you a

chance to start and been earning your money. You don't

have to work to your eight, buddy, but we're gonna

let you live till We're gonna give you seventy years

to work it off.

Oh God, so every day approximately, they've.

Been to believe the average man, if he works, they

man eight hours a day, They ben a seventy years

would be somewhere around twenty five thousand hours, twenty five thousand,

five hundred hours, and then he would work.

And then so that's all you get on the workforce. Friend,

it really ain't that much. They've been.

Gift God your best, coutcha, and then so here, brother

Josh gets seventy years to do that, aymen, he's got

to earn every day roughly one hundred and forty eight

six trillion dollars. That is one hundred and forty eight

with twenty one zeros behind it. Well, the Josh, you're

gonna earn that every day for the next seventy years

to even afford a chance to give God thirty eight

what trillion dollars they then or hey, well here's my

thought process.

We all say God and then would have died for

brother Wood, just like he did the whole world. And

then so if you say that the brother the wood

has to be valued at all, and then humanity.

Because the God would have paid it and been three

twenty eight opt billion dollars for all of humanity he

would have paid that for brother Wood and then alone himself,

and then the name and the logic is there.

So brother John, you've got to earn one hundred and

forty eight. They been six billion dollars with twenty one

yeero behind it. Every day, man, could you form your ransom?

God help us? Now, let me be clear.

You cannot use the creation to quantify the value of

the creator. Right.

You cannot use and then what Earth has to offer.

And then to say that was the value of Jesus's life,

that'd be like me asked a sister woman, cook me

a bola soon and the use that ball asion to

buy a house?

Are you kidding me? God created this world.

In all its beauty, in all it's but every tip

of gold, every piece of sealer, every moody and every time.

And you can't quite the fire.

There's a wire? Why using creation? God help her. I've

never found the creation of someone's hand.

They've been to be worth They've been a worthy bargaining tool,

Jesus God, Amen, the best we would have to offer.

And then it's maybe some mentioned.

Handrails, Amen, in some pavement in reality gold, we're gonna

walk on it.

You think diamonds are worth something, friend, I mean you're

probably gonna sit on them.

Well, what do you do with your soul? What he

paints so.

Much for Mother Beafred, what he paints so much for it,

Whether Jesse still got some left over?

Amen? Now, all it takes is a little bit. Amen.

And I love to do this tonight Amen in a

different way.

Man.

We'll see if this works here. Amen.

But praise God. All it takes is a little bit

of the blood of Jesus. I know this is different tonight.

Don't bear with you.

We're all even dirty, dark and ruined. But all it takes, man,

it's the blood of Jesus to come down.

And then and wash us.

Something that was sold, have been unworthy, something that was

sold it been undesirable, something that had lost its value, Amen,

something that wasn't worth being used.

Amen. And God begins to clean us and work con us. Amen.

And before where you know, and we're starting to see

some things they been that we're under the surface. And

then we starting to see God they've been undercovering, uncovering

something that seemingly Amen, is worth something.

Amen.

A friend, if you haven't valued your soul and you

haven't washed it in the blood of Jesus Christ. They been.

And your still your soul still looks like what you're

holding in your hand. Amen, And you're willing to trade.

It aymen for such Amen, lacidious mens and foolishnis.

Amen.

And you don't value what Jesus pay that you were

making a grave, grave error?

Oh God, hellylujah. Brother, Would I believe?

And I know Amen, Like I said, I know this

is different, But I believe you had a head of

a Bible.

Amen.

That's worth something to you. Probably, if I'm not mistaken,

it was here, have been a couple of years ago.

It may still be. I could probably offer you thirty.

Eight quadrillion dollars for it, and you'd probably tell me

go jump in the lake.

Friend, it probably ain't worth bore than my Bible. Love.

Love set the value on you, friend, not your work,

not you who you have me, and not what you are,

but the love God, the God.

The love of God reached down through your despicable stata

even when you and nothing, and value you about the

life of his only son. I got off my brother, Jesse, Amen,

ten million dollars here, andy man, he wouldn't let me

kill his son, I guarantee it. Maybe I couldn't even

frie on them even the Christ God paid and only sacrifice.

But thanks we throw say. I don't want no more.

I want the dark despect of this. I want the

disgusting fail I want where God from me? I care

in my weakness, in my amn desired, in myles seriousness,

And we spent all them the price God paid.

About that, I tell Shad, I tell you so.

I'm thirty nine and five, said Javed. Said the summer

man at her best is vanity attic best. Matthew twenty

six and twenty eight said, for this is my blood

of the New Testin.

This is my blood of the New Testament, which is

said for many for the remission to sin. No hold

on I love? I said, Oh, how have you valued

in praying? Now?

Have you thrown it away?

If you trashed it? Amen?

Have you spin on it and walk on it.

Matthew Tenner twenty nine verses we're familiar with and when

he said, Amen, Priest God, here or not do sparrow

soul for a farthing?

And one of them shall not fall on the ground

without your father, Amen, But the very hairs of your

head are numbered. Fear ye not.

Therefore you are of more value than many spharows, Oh God.

Amen.

Now if you look at the Essa, Amen, this spharaoh

falls to the ground and death. He also falls to

the ground hungry looking for provision, and Jesus Christ pain

the beautiful path of provision so you might have an

opportunity in heaven.

He gained his own life, and then he bore those

stripes for Youah. He bought those nail prints for Youah.

He poured in the stile on his back for you. Amen.

There was a man.

A yard field. I'm not mistaken. Amen. He liked a

picture frame byther Jesse. He didn't like the painting. Amen,

he pulled He pulled it out to get the picture frame.

They man have found there an old, ancient dayd amen

copy of the Constitution. You know that went on to

sell for millions. Amen, friend, there's more value here in

what you're seeing.

There was more value in that than what he saw.

And man, you may see a laugh at a filthy

joke and don't realize what's at stake for you.

You may a man be Amen, drawn and controlled by

your own us, and don't realize what's at stake for you.

You can't afford to purchase it, so.

Why would you exchange it? You can't avoid to buy it,

so why would you trade it. If I had something

there was a treasure, I would never trade it, amen,

knowing I couldn't get it back up a man, if

I tried my hardest, if I lived every day and sometime,

if I lived every.

Day and died, pursuit out of it and I'd never

be able to obtain it, may man, I would never

trade it away.

Another lady, Amen, she went to a yard saling ball

and set up plates, I believe, and man, it was

thirty five dollars she paid for it.

Amen. She went to that yard sale and paid thirty

five dollars.

For it and had some paintings on it, Amen of

the Yosemite, Amen National Park. And then and now she

looked at those plates, you assumed they were worth some money.

And she started selling them all for twenty five hundred

dollars a plate, if I remember correctly, that's good money.

Amen. Somebody later told her, what are you doing? That's

worked up with to two hundred million dollars. She was

selling it. She had something priceless for the just in

our hands. And men, if she was selling it, what

if you sold to night? What if you sacrifice? Amen?

Friend, there they're sacrificing their innocence at young ages. They're

sacrificing their purity and been at young ages these days.

And then they're sacrificing Amen, a pure eye gate at

young ages these days.

They're sacrificing clean ears at a young age.

These days.

Amen, they're sacrificing holy hands, Amen, before a holy God.

Amen. Like it's nothing.

Theymen like it want to affect God and his perspective

and opinion of you.

Friend.

If you're dealing dallying with your soul, Amen, and you're

fooling around with you, I had to hold that other

Jessy mother, Bill y'all can set it down.

He Remember, if you're fooling around with it and playing.

With it, aymen, and not properly valuing it, Aymen, you're

gonna wake up one day and have lost it all.

And I feel like I'm being too long tonight. Amen.

But Matthew twenty five, I want to talk to you.

Just a couple more things here, Amen, A couple more

things here, Matthew twenty five and twenty nine, says the

Amen twenty five and twenty nine said, for under every

man that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance.

But from him that had none shall be taken away,

even that which he had, and cast he the unprofitable

servant in the outer darkness.

Therefore there shall be weeping and mash chief. Amen, there

are things.

And Joe wrote up job brote ay been over and

and in the book of Job about it a been

wisdom and all that it was worth. And he said,

earth cannot contain the value of it. There are things

in earth that Earth could not even afford to purchase.

A man's soul is one of those, Amen, Jesus Christ,

and his gift is one of those. Your free will is.

One of those. And I want to borrow this, and

I don't want to get it out of context.

I want you to understand, Amen, as the Lord gave

this to me from him that hath to him that

has shall be given unto him a man that hath

not shall be taken away, even that that he had.

A man prays God, brother Wood has lost his soul.

Up until judgment, he probably still had a chance at

free will and a choice to change but after the

judgment that that you have and an even free choice.

It's gone. Never again will you get to make a choice. Amen.

Those that still have their soul, those those that have

Brother Philip will get Amen in heaven all the.

Beauties of it. And those that have lost their soul. Amen,

that have not their soul will lose their ability to change.

They'll lose their chance at saying God, I have sinned,

and they will forfeit their future.

Amen.

Jesus said of a mind, luke seven and forty seven.

Her sins, which are many, are forgiven. Her sins, which

are many, are forgiven.

Amen.

I got a lot more to preach, but I feel

like I need to clothes, but I want to say this,

what syell a man give in exchange for his soul?

May we just for a minute.

This is a youth service, and I'm a young parent.

I mean a many parents here. And then we've heard

this offen Amen talked about. And then you also have

children's souls.

In your hands.

And man, there are men that try to justify their callings, Amen,

and risk souls.

There are men that try, men that try to run around.

And tell a God that cannot be quantified. To creation.

Look what I can do for you and sacrifice souls.

I've never come to this church and said Lord, Amen,

I'm about to bless you with my guitar player. Well,

there's preachers that say, Lord, I'll go preach for you.

Amen.

If they sacrifice a soul, you are you will never

be able to tell God, a God that make everything,

look what I can do for you. The only thing

of failure you can offer God, Amen, is a submitted

life to his will. You think you're a pastor, and

God said, shut up and sit down.

Amen.

You are sacrificing souls on the altar of a selfish will.

The preacher preachers to you, ayman, if you don't even

line up and help your children, girls.

But you want to look into the future they've been

and all that you think you canna do for God,

your son, I tag souls.

You first priority, those be gotten out of your lords.

The look children, you must make your day naked.

You play with a soul. They can't be bater your children.

And you lose a agner and you ain't gone, and

they want to tag her to put us off, and.

You're the Merson and all no God.

And then you say lie the I can do for you.

You're the speak of a nasty, filthy beggar. They'll run

all over the land, track them out a good.

Solid holess churches because they've gotta do something for them.

They've got to justify something for them. They've got to

be somebody. I'll tell you who you are. You're a

what You're not gone. God don't need to. You couldn't

afford your sella.

You're selling your sol of the devil, your tailor and

your family.

You shock up to him and how died? Amen. Let's

stand to night. I don't know what to do. You

come to church and we.

Talk about I'm running and I'm shelting because I'm a

soul set free and your value alight. And you Amen,

what you think of God, Amen, as oh, I deserve

that the matter what you think of God as they man,

Look what he'd done for me, And you never stop

the fathom the price that God himself bankrupted Heaven Amen

of its most valuable possession.

They went for lowly humans. Amen. That wasn't worth two

in Santa Amen.

And he came.

Everything he had, that which was valuable, and then that

which was.

Important in Heaven. That the left a void in heaven

they meant for you, and you can't even raise a hand.

You stand there like a wooden in there.

And then I just bundled the.

Words, and you ain't got no spirit and no thankfulness

and no joy in your heart.

Up because of the thought that pardoned you and bought

you with the price of his own blood, for the

remissions of a man and the forgiveness of.

Sins for many. They paid a king's ransom for you

when you were nasty, when you stuck up.

When you teached him nasty way after the high end,

when you were ridding in the car.

And the return he gets on his gift.

Is what.

The whole.

All souls are mine, as the soul of the Father's

soul soul, the soul of the.

Sun is mine.

The soul that seeth he shall die who And then

there was a transaction repeated on Calvary's Hill. And then

could the singers come get us? So did I, Oh God,

God says, And then he bowed his head, gave.

Up the ghost, after saying it is finished. Transaction complete.

He purchased us, amen, and we became his Ian a

verse I've always loved a man. In seven years, I've

loved this verse Psalms two and eight sent ask of me,

and I shall get the heathen without inheritance, Amen, asking me,

and I shall give thee the heathen for thut inheritance.

And I thought of what God asked, aymen, what Jesus

asked God for? A king ransom for me, a king

ransom for you?

Oh? What do you give it? An extends?

For?

What are you trade it for? The most valuable thing

you possess is your soul?

Amen, The most valuable thing you possess is your soul.

The bankrupt in heaven of his son, knowing aim in

the world with lightly esteeming, they wouldn't value.

They wouldn't see it then what he was worth.

Amen.

They would think little love him, and they would mock

the king of kings. They would disobey him, They would

beat him and spit on him, and then go so

far as to kill him. A man some of such value,

Praise God, Praise God. Something of such value, someone of

such value. We can't even put a price tag on,

you'll deny, we'll let you go.

men as they begin to sing, as someone would like

the tree, Amen, your more than.

So the Bible senter romans fire and ain't God And

commended his love toward us, And then while we were

yet sinners.

Christ died for us in the hard to speakableness, in

our disgustingness.

Maymen, when we were out of the Lord, God still looked.

Through time and said, I see something of first saving.

of your self esteem, of your pride, your desires, of

your emotions. And then I said, God, I'll be nothing,

but I sure could use a washing.

God, I'm nothing, I'm rotten, I'm breaking, I'm disgusting.

Amen, But you over it pays thevice, and I accept

the gift. And and I am in a sinner. What
