Introduction

This is the greatest power to follow Jesus. I pray that the Lord will give you eyes to see tonight and ears to hear. Let me hear an amen. And by the way, it's wonderful to see my friend, the Colburds here tonight. Would you stand up so they see who you are? This is the first time to come to church here. They were members of OCC years ago. That's what we met. Goodness gracious, how long ago was that? How many years? Forty years ago. Wow. But you look good. All right. So I want to read a portion of the word. Now listen carefully to what Paul says in verse 16
