Turn with me to John the third chapter, please. Gospel account of John, chapter three. And then also we're going to be going over to Romans chapter eight. I'm going to ask you to believe with me this morning. Utterance is greatly affected by the hearer. Father, we come together in prayer right now, looking at this and touching this together

with our spirit asking you for utterance, asking you for every one of us to have eyes

that see and ears that hear and a heart and mind that understands and receives.

Help us to hear and see exactly what you're saying to us and showing us today and what's coming

tomorrow, preparing us for the next part, the next steps, the next phase.

We ask for answers.

We ask for direction.

We ask for help, anointing, supply of the spirit.

And we purpose that what you show us and say to us, we'll not be forgetful hearers,

but by your grace we will be doers.

And as we do, we know we'll be blessed in Jesus' name. Amen.

Thank you, Lord.

Sit out loud, I'm a doer.

I'm a doer.

I'm a doer.

I'm a doer of the word of God.

In John 3, I'm a doer of the word of God. In John 3 and 14, as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness,

even so must the son of man be lifted up.

How can a brass snake on a pole be a type of Jesus on the cross?

The holy spotless, sinless one?

Well, it's because when he hung on that cross, he became sin with your sin and my sin.

Brass indicates judgment.
