Would you turn again, please, to Hebrews the third chapter, Hebrews chapter three, before we get into the word and get focused in that, let me just say on behalf of Phyllis and myself how thankful we are to be with you in these meetings again.

Thank you for the respect for the word.

You know, this subject, this topic is not necessarily what everybody would like to hear,

but there's been enough maturity and respect for the word that that has not been a problem.

Anybody in here say, I love the word?

Do you love the word?

That means all the word.

Right?

And we don't just need to pick out a couple of verses or topics and focus only on them.

We need the whole council of God.

And the truth is, sometimes we need corrected.

And if you will receive correction, adjustments will be made.

Judgment will be averted and destruction will be prevented.

And you'll find and feel your place.

I know in our own life, Phyllis in my own life,

there have been a handful of times in these past 30 years

that we could have missed the plan of God.

That, you know, after the flesh, you didn't want to do something that you needed to do.

And you were going to have to submit to do it.

And you're going to have to receive correction and humble yourself and submit.

I know I already said that word, but I'm going to say it again.

And submit.
