JESUS, SAVE ME! - 2ND MESSAGE......(SUN AM 2/8/98)

In the beginning of our spiritual journey, we were saved from the Effect of sin by a Gift of Blood, Fire, and Water, which were received by faith when we called on the Name of Jesus. Then, we worked in the Holy Place of Jesus Christ’s Spiritual Stature to possess greater portions of our old heart. Now, in the end of our journey, we are being saved, again, by Gift, but this time we are being saved from the Cause of sin, which is our Midnight Will.

Ephesians 1:22,23 says that all things are under His Feet, and this includes Salvation. In Matthew 14:15-33, when Jesus constrained His Disciples to get into a ship, He left them for more than twenty-four hours. At midnight, when the Disciples were being tossed by the winds and the waves and were in a helpless and hopeless condition, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea, in the midst of storm. Peter stepped out on the water to go to Jesus. But, when he started sinking, he cried “Lord, save me.” His cry was a personal one. He was not crying, “Jesus, save the other Disciples, or Jesus, save the boat.” He was crying for Jesus to save him. And, when we are in a storm and being tossed by the winds and waves in our Midnight Will, we must call on the Name of Jesus and cry for Him to save us — not our brother nor our sister nor our possessions.
