Turn with me, please, in the scriptures to Matthew the seventh chapter.

A few weeks ago, we started on a series we're calling mercy over judgment.

Mercy over judgment.

And let's look at our text verses, main texts, and then proceed further into this today and if you

hadn't been here on Friday nights the Lord's giving us good utterance on these things too

you know you don't want to miss something that you were supposed to have gotten.

So thank God for technology today.

Used to if you weren't in the service, that's it.

Right?

You just didn't get it.

You missed it.

But now you can go online and sit through the whole thing,

watch the whole thing again, listen to the whole thing.

So take advantage of that. Matthew 7 and 1 Jesus said what do you say judge not that you be not judged

so we're talking about judgment again're going to talk about judgment again.

If you think talking about judgment is not fun,

let me tell what's really not fun.

Getting judged.

No.

One of the greatest things we could ever learn is that even though we may have missed it and judgment should come on us, it's possible to get mercy instead of judgment.

Now, judgment can involve destruction.

But mercy means even though it was coming your way, don't get it you don't get it do you think we should know about these things
