In this sermon, the preacher urges believers to continue living for God despite the hardships they may face. He invites those who are committed to the cause of saving the lost to come forward and pray together. The preacher emphasizes the importance of not going to hell but choosing heaven instead, and encourages listeners to think about their loved ones and others who need salvation. He highlights the significance of being a reason for someone to come to Christ and warns about the consequences of not living for God.

My message this morning, give me a reason to not give up. Now, I know that's the cry in somebody's heart. The Lord gave me this as a word, but a word of knowledge as well. There are people here, and that's the deepest cry of your heart. Even one reason would be good enough. You don't need the whole wagon load. It says, God, give me a reason. Just give me a reason to not give up. Psalm 73, please, if you'll turn there in your Bibles. Father, I thank you, God Almighty, for the anointing of the Holy Spirit. I thank you for the power of the written word. I thank you for the ability you give ordinary men and women to deliver this word in an extraordinary manner so that it becomes a key to unlock prison doors. It becomes a salve for blinded eyes. It becomes an oil for wounded hearts. I'm asking you, Jesus, to do the miraculous today. I'm asking you to do a work so profound, so deep, so far-reaching that it could only come from the hand of God. Lord, I thank you for the power of reasoning. But we're living in an hour where the work of God must go deeper. It's got to touch the heart. It's got to be supernatural. I yield to you, Lord. I'm asking you to simply use this vessel. Speak through me. Help me to disappear that you may be seen and heard. Strengthen me, O God, and strengthen this church to hear your word. Prepare us, Lord. I pray for every person who's faltering today in this sanctuary and who's listening from other places. God, give us strength. Give us refreshing, Lord. I thank you for it in Jesus' mighty name. Give me a reason to not give up. Psalm 73, verses 2, 13, and 14 to start. Well, let's read verse 1 and 2. Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart. But as for me, my feet were almost gone, and my steps had well nigh slipped. Verse 13. Verily, I've cleansed my heart in vain and washed my hands in innocency. For all day long have I been plagued and chastened every morning. Now, the psalmist begins by saying, God, I know you're good to your people. I know you bless those who walk with cleanness of hands and impurity of heart. I know that. I've sat under the word. I've seen it in Scripture. I know what the psalms say. I know Psalm 15 says, I'll dwell in the holy hill of God if I don't sit with a scornful God. If I keep my hands clean, if I walk a righteous walk in my generation. I know. But for me, I'm ready to give up. The road's been long and difficult for me. I've tried to avoid evil. I've been disciplined daily and I've been kept from sin. But to what end? What kind of an influence has my life had on the ungodly? How have I affected this world? Even my own family. Folks, that's an honest cry if you've got that cry in your heart today. It's an honest question if you're ready for an honest answer. What's the point? I deprive myself as it is of the pleasures that others seem free to enjoy. I walk such a narrow path when others, even those who sometimes claim to be part of the body of Christ, seem to walk a much broader path. They seem to be at liberty to enjoy all the things of this world that I'm not. They can sit at night and satiate their minds as it is with ungodliness on television and talk about how the blessing of God is all over them. And yet you've told me to stay away from these things, to keep my vision clean, to keep myself focused on eternity and on the works of eternity. But I don't seem to be having any effect. He says in verse 3, I was envious at the foolish when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. They seem to be enjoying a lot of things that I can't enjoy and I don't enjoy. Verses 4 and 5, They claim to be free, strong and happy. More than I can say about myself at the moment. You ever gotten to the places as a Christian where the unsaved look better off than you are? Yes, I know. Thank you for that honest answer. There are no bands in their death, he says in verse 4. Their strength is firm. They're not in trouble as other men are. And neither are they plagued like other men. Verse 6, They can say any hurtful thing they want to me. While I have to be silent or respond with kindness. Therefore, he says, Pride compasses them about like a chain and violence covers them as a garment. How many here today you go into the workplace and you want to be a testimony, but it seems that people are at liberty to say any vile hurtful thing they want to you. To attack you. And you feel that restraining hand of God telling you not to fight back, not to respond and like kind. He says, They do everything my flesh would like to do. They speak scorningly about what I hold dearly as truth. And they grasp for all that this world has to offer and claims that it fully satisfy them. Verse 7, Their eyes stand out with fatness. They have more than heart could wish. They're corrupt. They speak wickedly concerning oppression. They speak loftily. They set their mouth against the heavens and their tongue walks through the earth. Therefore, his people return hither. The waters of a full cup are rung out to them. And they say, How does God know? Is their knowledge in the most high? Behold, these are the ungodly who prosper in the world. They increase in riches. And this is where he begins to say, Truly, I've cleansed my heart in vain and washed my hands in innocency. All day long, I've been plagued and chastened every morning. They do everything that I'd like to do. My flesh, I'd like to respond. I'd like to respond to what they do in the manner they do to me. I'd like to say some things they say. I'd like to do some things they do. So what's the point of living a life separated under God? It doesn't appear that my life is having any effect. Have you ever felt that way? It doesn't appear. What difference is my life making? I go to church on Sunday and all I do is go home to scornful people. That's the testimony of many here. They laugh at me for attending the house of God. They talk about how simple, stupid and narrow I am to believe these things when there's such a broad and wonderful world out there. They mock me in the workplace. And it seems that nobody's changing. And I'm wondering, is it worth it? Why do I have to be so strict? Why do I have to deny myself some of the things that others seem to be enjoying in this life? Is it really necessary? My life's not making any difference anyway. So why can't I numb my mind like other people are? Why can't I sit and watch mindless television every night from 6 o'clock till 11 o'clock and just numb my mind with idiocy and then just go to bed like everybody else? Why can't I do that? How come my walk is so strict if it's not really having a whole lot of effect on the people around me? Verse 15, it says, If I say I would speak thus, I would offend against the generation of thy children. When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me. What he's in effect saying is, I don't want to discourage or disparage those who are really trying to live a godly life around me, on my left and on my right. And some people are feeling that way today. You're in the annex in the main sanctuary. You're saying, I really appreciate the brother or sister on my left-hand side and on my right-hand side. If they knew how I was feeling, it could discourage them. If they knew what I was thinking, it could cause them to falter. And I don't want that to happen. And some of you are older in the Lord. And it's sometimes when you've walked a long time with God that these thoughts begin to plague your mind. And you see the young coming in and they're lifting their hands and they're radiant and glowing for God. And you just say, oh, if they only knew what's ahead of them. If they only knew how tough this is going to get. And I'm 15 years in the Lord and I'm wondering if it's all worth it. I dare not speak it. I don't want to offend this simple faith that they seem to have. But I don't see the point of it anymore. I'm in such turmoil, he says, I feel sick inside. When I thought to know it, it was too painful for me. I feel sick inside. I come into the house of the Lord and I lift my hands and I feel again the presence of God. But it's just I feel sick inside. I don't know what to do. I don't know. God, if you just give me a reason to continue on this journey. If you'll just show me why. Why everybody claims to be happy while I'm chastened. Everyone seems to be enjoying this incredible blessing while I'm going through heartache and sorrow and pain and suffering and trial. Why, Lord? Just give me a reason to go on. He said, until I came into the sanctuary of God, then I saw something. The fog lifted as it is. It's like a London day. Mid-afternoon, the sun tries to peak out, the fog lifts and suddenly there are these tall buildings there. You start to see something that's not visible to the natural eye. I came into your presence, O God, and the fog lifted and I saw something terrifying. I began to understand something. I began to see what lies before the ungodly. I began to understand there's an end to all things as they are coming. And it's coming soon. And, O God, the people around don't have any idea what they're headed for. They don't understand the terror of hell. They don't understand what it means to be apart from God for eternity. Even the ungodly in the world are surrounded by the presence of God because God in this season and time is omnipresent. That means He's everywhere in the world. The Holy Spirit is always whispering even to the worst of sinners. You know that because He whispered to you before you came to Christ. So, realistically, the presence of God is around even... and the ungodly can become complacent in that presence of God, even though the heavens declare the glory of God. Paul said that every man, every woman will stand before God one day without excuse of every nation, every tribe, because the heavens declared the glory of God. Anyone who wants to know who God is, he said, I would have revealed myself. That's why everyone stands without excuse on the day of judgment. I saw, he says, surely you set them in slippery places, you cast them down into destruction. Oh God, the psalmist says, when I came into your house I saw that the lost are sliding into a place of destruction from which there is no natural escape. It's like a steep hill that has been rained upon and the ground has turned to a slippery clay. And try like they might, they cannot escape what's coming to them. There is no way out of the judgment that is coming. Don't lose sight of the fact that there is a heaven and a hell, folks. A heaven to gain, as some have said, and a hell to shun. Don't ever forget that hell is a place of torment. So tormenting to be outside of the presence of God. You see, even a sinner doesn't understand what it's like to be in a place where God is not. A sinner can't understand that. The absence of God. The complete absence of God. I don't have a mind that can explain that to you. Only the Holy Spirit can give you even a glimpse of what that would be like. The Bible says it's a place where there is a non-ending fire, in a sense. There's such torment. There's gnashing of teeth. It's endless darkness, endless hopelessness. Endless lack of comfort. The scripture talks about it as a darkness that's so thick you can touch it and feel it. Never a comforting word. No hope. No vision. No future. And it's forever. And it's called hell. And it's just simply the absence of God's presence. It's what hell is. And all that means. Oh God. Oh God, oh God. The people in your family who don't know Christ are headed there. The people in your workplace who don't know Christ are going there. The people on your block who deal drugs in the corner are going there. The churchgoer who think they're righteous but do not have a living relationship with God are going there. He says in verse 19, how they're brought into desolation is in a moment. They're utterly consumed with terrors. What emptiness is coming their way. How suddenly it will happen to them. Isaiah chapter 33 verse 14. Isaiah said the sinners in Zion are afraid. Fearfulness has surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? Karl Oppenheimer, one of the persons who created the atomic bomb, the one that was eventually used in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War II, when they first tested it, he was gravely afraid that the device that he had created, as a physicist, he knew could set the atmosphere in the earth on fire. And he knew if it did set the atmosphere on fire, it would create an irrevocable, irreversible chain of fire that could engulf much more than he intended. And he was in terror when they first tested this device. Do you know the devices we have today are hundreds of times more powerful? Peter the Apostle said the heavens are going to be on fire. Isaiah said the heavens are going to be on fire. And there's going to be a cry among men. Who among us can dwell with this devouring fire? It's all through the prophets, folks, in the Old Testament. You read it. It's in the New Testament. The heavens will be on fire. The earth will eventually be dissolved. God, of course, himself will do that. What terror is coming in a moment of time. You look at our generation and you see those that are grasping for nuclear weaponry only for the sole purpose of destruction. You realize, beloved, we're all living on borrowed time now. All of us. Every one of us. Every person in your family. Everyone you know in the workplace. What terror is, he said, in a moment. Luke chapter 16, if you will. If you'll turn there. In the context of the terrorisms I just spoke to you about. I'm speaking about giving you a reason to not quit. Giving you a reason not to give up. No matter how difficult it may be for you. Or uncomfortable. Luke 16, 19. This is a story that Jesus told. There was a certain rich man which was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. Now, I want you to hear this parable in the context of what we're speaking about. Remember the psalmist says, they have more than their heart could wish. They're indulging in the things of the world. They say that it satisfies them. And here I am, poor and struggling. Disciplined. Kept on this narrow path. Unable to enjoy any of the things they do. The victim of their verbal abuse. And all of the things and plans that they plot against me. And so here's a man who fared sumptuously every day. And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus which was laid at his gate full of sores. This was a hurting man. He desired to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. Yet an inner desire like, oh God, I wouldn't mind a Caribbean vacation like they want. But yet you're asking me to give a portion of my income to a missions venture that would deny me that vacation. I won't be able to go. I'd like to take my holidays and just lay in a hammock somewhere. And listen to somebody sing kumbaya on a guitar beside me. But yet you're asking me to go to Mexico to build homes for the homeless. He would have liked a crumb that fell from the rich man's table. And moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. He felt he was in an embarrassing place. It's like he was completely dependent on the mercy of God. And everybody passing by who doesn't understand the ways of God would have been disdainful of this man just as they are towards you. And it came to pass that the beggar died and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom. And the rich man also died and was buried. And in hell he lift up his eyes being in torments and saw Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham have mercy on me. And said Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son remember that you in your lifetime received good things, your good things. And likewise Lazarus as you sought evil things. But now he is comforted and you are tormented. And beside all this between us and you there's a great gulf fixed so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot. Neither can they pass to us that would come from where you are. Then he said, this is the rich man, I pray therefore Father you would send him, that's Lazarus, to my father's house. I have five brothers that he may testify to them that they also into this place, lest they come also into this place of torment. The rich man said, I'm tormented. And suddenly it's the very person that he esteemed as insignificant and unworthy of his attention. It's somebody who had been placed by God before him. You see this, if he had listened to what God was trying to tell him through Lazarus at his gate, heaven instead of hell could have been his destiny. It was amazing that he now knew that this suffering man, Lazarus, had the word that his family needed to hear. I wonder now, how many people in hell do you think are crying out today for someone who knows and represents the suffering of Christ to be placed across their family's doorstep? How many voices do you think are crying out in hell right now? Oh God, God send to my family somebody, somebody that can tell them about Christ so they don't have to come to this place. How many? How many millions are crying out? It must sound like a hive of bees crying out. If God could just open it just for a moment to us, if we could hear the cry of people that have no hope, no help, no future, no eternity. Finally finding out they're wrong and saying, God send Lazarus. Send that suffering man. Don't send a light message to them because they know in hell that a light message will not do. Don't send a false prophet that cause the people to err by their lies and their lightness, Jeremiah says. No, send a suffering man. Send somebody who represents the cross of Jesus Christ. Send somebody who understands that God so loved the world that he became a man and went to a cross and suffered and died. That they don't have to come to this place of eternal torment. Oh God, this is not the season, this is not the time for positive thinking in the house of God. Send somebody. Somebody that looks like that cross on Calvary. Somebody that is willing to endure a narrow place. Somebody that is willing to suffer not for their own sakes but for the sake of others. My God. My God, my God. Send somebody. If you were in hell this very moment, who would you want to speak to your family? Guy smiling on television with his new positive view of how you can have God and the world at the same time? Or how about that, I would prefer to have that grandmother that has just walked with God. She's had to trust God for her provision, for her strength, she's had to trust God. I'd prefer the single mom that drags her four kids to this church every Sunday. I wouldn't be looking for Guy smiling on his television program, no sir. I'd be looking for somebody who knows the sufferings of God, who can bring the reality of Christ. Somebody who is willing to be given for other people. Somebody who's had to trust God. Somebody who could stand in the midst of their pain and say it's been worth it all. Because this whole Christian life is not about me, I've been left on the earth for your sake. Not my sake, for your sake I've been left here. I'm already redeemed, my name's already in the book of life. I've already got a mansion with my name on the door. This is not about me, this is about you. Therefore, we endure. Paul says in Philippians 1.29, Why? Why the narrow path? It's only for one reason, as I see it, that the glory of God might be revealed through us. There's no other reason. The glory means the full weight of God, the keeping power of God, the sustaining power of God. Something of God that is deeper than anything that this world has to offer. How else does God speak to this generation? How else does He reveal His cross? Is it not through a people? Aren't you thankful that Jesus didn't just come to the earth and talk about the cross? Just open the Bible that He had of the Old Testament and talk about what the cross looks like. And this is what it is, and this is how it feels, and then just suddenly just vanish and go back to heaven. I'm more thankful He went to the cross than talk about the cross. This is a cry in the heart of this generation. Don't tell me about Jesus because there's too many voices talking about Him. Show me Jesus. Show me the one who went to a cross. You see folks, this is why you suffer. This is why you and I are called to walk a narrower road than others. This is why when our face gets slapped, we turn it to the other side. This is why. This is why. Verse 20 of Psalm 73 says, As a dream when one awakes, O God, when you awake, you will despise their image. He's saying, O God, judgment is coming, and you've called me to be a testimony of your mercy to them. Oh, I was pricked in my heart. My heart was grieved and I was pricked in my reins. I know some of you are feeling that way right now. O God, forgive me. O Jesus, thank you one more time for just bringing everything into focus. For letting me see the reason why my life is so narrow while others seem to be able to walk another way. So foolish, he said, was I, verse 22, and ignorant. I was as a beast before you. God, I just, yeah, I do that once in a while. I just hang my head and I say, oh God, I just feel stupid. There's nothing wrong with that, folks. Nevertheless, I am continuously with thee, and thou'st holding me by my right hand. He said, God, you've set me on the same slope as it is that they are on, but they're going over the edge. And I'm standing there as a witness to them that they don't have to go there. Nobody has to go to hell. Nobody has to die in their sin. There is a Savior. And the reason I will not go over down that slope and over the edge with them is because somebody is holding my right hand. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. You shall guide, thou shall guide me with thy counsel, and afterwards receive me to glory. Guide me with your counsel, oh God. Let me not live according to my own way of thinking anymore. Guide me with your counsel. What an atrocious trap, theologically, has been laid for this generation. The trap is that to know God, everything has to go well. Everybody needs a big promotion. Nice big house. Great big stretch limo. And that's, of course, evidence that God is with you. And folks, it's a total lie. The gospel we preach, you have to be able to preach it in prison. You have to be able to preach it in China. You have to be able to go into Iraq and Vietnam. You have to be able to go all over the world. And if we have to modify what we preach, then it isn't the gospel. The gospel I preach, I have to be able to preach it anywhere in the world, in any setting, any environment. It can't be just strictly American. It has to be able to be preached throughout the world. I sigh as much as you do. There are days that I get tired of the grand piano that sometimes seems to be on my shoulders. There are days I'd like to, I'd just like to do my likeness, you know? Just like you would. But then God one more time comes and says, Carter, it's not about you. It's about other people. That's the only reason I've left you here. That's the only reason that you and I are here today is because there are others that need to understand that there is a Christ who gave his life on a cross that they might know eternity in heaven. We are a visible demonstration of not only the suffering, but the keeping power of Almighty God. When you study the theology of Paul, you'll see that is the very cornerstone of everything that he preached, and it was the basis of all his revelation of Christ. A man who was appointed, he embraced suffering, and because of it, he was given a vision of the keeping power of God, which became a catalyst, an open door as it is for many to come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Oh God, thank you for helping me understand. You asked a question in your heart. Somebody here today, give me a reason not to give up. Well, how about your son? How about your daughter? But your grandson, how about your granddaughter? How about your wife? How about your husband? How about the kids across the hall from your apartment building? How about the clerk at the grocery store? How about the kids hanging around the corner on your block? How about the rich man who thinks his wealth is going to get him into heaven? How about the religionist who just goes to church but doesn't live for God? I want you to think of a reason, because a reason is just one person, that's all it takes. One person. One reason. Why you and I will be given the grace to walk this path, and to finish this race. And I know as you're thinking now about it, the Lord is putting before you one reason. One reason. Your family don't need to go to hell. Your co-workers don't need to die in their sin. If you and I are willing to embrace the pathway that God has for us, and begin to realize that it's not about us, it's about others, you'll be able to walk out of here with your hands in the air, your heart aflame again, the glory of God in your soul, saying, God, let your glory be seen in me. As I go through what I go through, let others begin to understand it's not about me, it's about them. And open my mouth. Open my mouth. To be able to testify of your goodness. Father, thank you Lord for this day. Thank you God for this season, this time in your house. Thank you for your word. Oh, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. Hallelujah. I'm going to give an altar call. An altar call means that you just come to the front of the church, and you are agreeing with God, and you're surrendering to what God says is right. And you're putting away what you know is the wrong way of living or thinking. You're re-embracing as it is truth, if you've known God. And you're embracing Christ for the first time, if you haven't. Now, please hold still and listen. In the annex, I'm going to ask you to make your way here as well. The first part of this altar call, or this call to the front of the church, is for people who are going to hell. And you want to go to heaven. Jesus Christ died for your sins. You do not have to go to hell. Which, as I said, is a place where God is not. And it's forever. There is no way out of it. That's why God became a man and died on the cross. It's as simple as this. He paid the price for the wrong things that you do. Now, coming to him is not just an agreement with the fact that he died 2,000 years ago. You are saying in your heart, I'm going to turn away from an ungodly lifestyle, from a life of disobedience to God, and I'm going to do and live the way God says. And I'm going to trust that he paid the price for my sin. Which the Bible says, if you do confess him, with your mouth and you believe in your heart, that he died for you, you will be saved. That means you will not go to hell when you die. You will go to heaven. But it's not just a mental agreement. You're giving your life to God through Jesus Christ. You're going to become a follower of Jesus Christ. Pointless to come to this altar if that's not in your heart. That's not your intention. If you're just trying to escape the penalty of sin and go on living in sin, it's rather pointless to come here. You're giving your life to Jesus Christ. And for those who believe that it's worth living for God, in spite of your hardship, in spite of what you have to go through, in spite of the ridicule, the scorn, the heartache, the discipline, the narrowness of it, if this message has spoken to your heart, and you believe that the saving of the lost is worth living for God, and you want to recommit your life to that cause, I want to invite you to come to the front of the church as well, and we're going to pray together. Now we're going to stand together in a moment. We're going to continue to worship. It's only 25 to 12. 10, maybe 15 minutes. I want you to think about these words, and I beg you, in the annex, in the balcony, don't go to hell when you can go to heaven, folks. Die to your pride. This is about eternal life. This is the one thing that you can't afford to be wrong in. You can make a wrong investment, and you can still recover later on, but this is the one thing you cannot afford to be wrong in. Because once you get on the other side, there is no way out. God, give you the grace. Give you the grace. Don't go to hell today when you can go to heaven. As we stand and begin to worship, the Lord is drawing you. Please come to the front of the church. In the annex, make your way over here too as well. Come to the front of the church. Every sinner, every person who wants Christ as Savior, just get out of your seat. I don't care who's standing beside you. You get out of your seat. If you brought a family member, you brought somebody with you, you turn to that person and say, listen, if you're afraid to go, I'll go with you. I'll walk with you down there. Do that now. Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. It's all about you, you know. The church, the gospel, the singing, the way we as Christians are called to live, it's all about you today who are coming to Christ. And from this day forward, it's going to be in your life all about Jesus. And because of him, it's going to be all about others. It is a very narrow life, but it is a very fulfilling life. And it brings about an eternal reward at the end. You've had just a taste of what it's going to be like at this altar today. The Bible says that when a sinner repents, the angels in heaven rejoice. And they rejoice because they foresee the day that you're going to be there. They know what's coming your way. Just a short season, just a short season of having to go through some difficult times, and then we're going to be there forever. Praise God. How many today, balcony, annex, sanctuary, altar, front of the church rather, with an upraised hand, could say, Pastor, I come in here going to hell, but today I'm giving my life to Jesus Christ and I believe that his sacrifice on the cross will pay the price for the wrong I've done, reconnect me to fellowship with God, and bring me to heaven when I die. If it's in your heart today to receive Christ as your Savior, abandon the rights to your life to God through Jesus Christ, would you join me and raise your hand? All over the sanctuary. God bless you. Praise God. Praise God. Praise God. Praise God. You'll never be the same again. You'll never be the same again. Pray this simple prayer with me. Lord Jesus Christ, I believe you're the Son of God. I believe you came to the earth. You died in my place and paid the price for the things I have done that have separated me from the life of God and eternity in heaven. Today, I make a decision to turn from sin in my life from living in a way that is wrong in the sight of God to doing what God says is right. I make that decision. I come to you, Lord Jesus, for forgiveness. Believing in my heart that as I am sincere in this prayer, you are forgiving my sin at this very moment. You are promising me eternal life in heaven when I leave this body in death. It will only be death to my body but eternal life for me. Oh God, help me to follow you now not to turn back or turn away. Help me to live for you in this earth. Help me to understand spiritual things in the Bible. Teach me lead me and guide me. I am your loyal servant from this day forward.
