I'm so happy to see and I just pray that the Lord is rich your life in every way we have so much to look forward to.

We have I wonderful future and it is condition upon the very things that God is going to speak to us about even to the Lord Jesus over these lost few weeks showed me something very precious and I'd like to just share with you today.

You see, Matthew's gospel chapter 26 tells us about something that happened in the life of the Lord Jesus that was amazing and at the culminating point of this and beginning to read that verse 26 Jesus said this, not as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and often lacing it, broke it and gave it to the disciples and said, take, eat, this is my body, and he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, drink and drink all of it for this is my blood of the covenant.

It is the covenant of my blood.

The covenant which is poured out for you for the forgiveness of sin and then Jesus says, I tell you, I will not drink again of the fruit of this violent told that day when I drink it new with you in my father's kingdom and when they had sung a hymn and this is a very important statement.

They went out to the Mount of olives. Is it not amazing that the Lord Jesus gathered together. This group of people and he brought them into a confined space sit high up on a hill. The place is called the upper room and it sits very high up in the occurred to me that the temple mound Mount Moriah the place of sacrifice. The seat of God's throne forever that what took place in the upper room was sick on the highest plain overlooking the highest authority, not down on it I'm showing you a symbolical picture Jesus took this group of people and he took them into this church room.

The upper room was literally that if it was a room if you would beg my pardon if it was like a church. It was like a this group of people who were out there. They were in the world they were in the marketplace.

They were in the hose they were dealing with fear that had questions they didn't know what was going to happen next. They watched what was going on in their world. They watched the governments they watch their next-door neighbors. These were Christian people.

They were Christ followers. And Jesus said for just a moment I'm going to show you tomorrow's best news you need to know this. You people need to know this.

Are you listening are you paying attention and executive pay attention.

I'm gonna pull you together and I'm gotta put some walls around you. I'm going to gather you on the inside of the church where I can speak to you where for just a few moments. Perhaps I can have your undivided attention and scared to just withdrawal and come together and so it is that these Christ followers withdrew for just a while into the upper they came inside they left the rain to fall outside the just for a moment, laid aside the questions about when Howe walked or why they came to listen to what Jesus had to say to why did Jesus gathered his disciples. That's the question I again divorce myself and I share with you for thoughts. I think Jesus gathered his disciples first of all because he knew himself.

It was all about him. Jesus wanted them to look at him without distraction. So maybe I don't know. He put four walls around the Jesus knew himself. Jesus knew that he was the son of God's slaying from before the foundation of the world. Jesus knew why he left he's throne on the high end came to this world.

Jesus knew that. In fact, Jesus knew that he was God. He told them he said you see me you see God. Jesus knew that he was the mediator between them and God in you. What gather them just to have a little ceremony go through some kind of ritual performed some kind of religious right. Why did Jesus gather these people. I suppose in many ways this really could be the only point of it because he was Jesus. I think Jesus wanted them to know above anything else that actually nothing else matters because he knew this human heart that these his disciples he he knew about it. He knew how torn they were and how they looked for the right reason to give their money and when they did they would give up with strings attached and how much they would get upset because somebody stepped on the toes or because somebody didn't say the right thing. He knew that. Then he he said you come together, gather your sales and just look at me, listen to me here me then obey me. Why did he gather them because he knew himself, but there's a second reason I think Jesus gathered this group of people because he knew them how much Jesus knew them off role. He created the main thing that them together. He determined the rate of life in them. At the very moment of conception because he is life indeed he is life.

Now back to the pollution of today's message. Tomorrow's best news Dr. Don Wilton what gather them because he knew himself as a second reason I think Jesus gathered this group of people because he knew them how much Jesus knew them off to rule. He created them. He made them he knit them together.

He determined the breath of life in them.

At the very moment of conception because he is life, and he knew all about that mean you they personality disposition.

They hot buttons.

He knew their struggles. He knew the grief of their hearts. He knew the questions that they had Jesus gathered them together because he knew them, but you know there's something even more important than I think Jesus gathered them because he loved it. He really did from Peter to Matthew to walk. He loved them. He loved them the way they were made. He loved them.

Evidently the goal of the ways about them. He loved why don't know. I will quite a bunch. These were supposed to be the spiritual leaders I shall behave strangely, sometimes, and it wasn't over yet. Some of them didn't even realize how strange they were going to behave so he just gather them in the upper room, he gather them because he knew himself because he knew them, he gather them because he really loved why does Jesus love us like this, why does Jesus love me but there's 1/4 reason he gathered them he gathered them. I think because he commissioned he commissioned them. Do note was to those he knew and those he loved that he said you leave here and go out into the world. The world you mean where we just came from. You mean we gotta go back home mean we gotta go back into the traffic you mean we gotta go back into our disease. You mean we gotta go back and draw stocks and bonds. Jesus said, go you go he gathered them because he had commissioned them.

He called them in from and then he sent them out to. He commissioned them because they were his disciples and he loved it and he knew them and he knew everything about out there. He got it. And Jesus wanted them to be able to go back out into the world with tomorrow's based news, not the worst news and if we watch the trial if we just keep our eyes on them. Here's what happened. They did. He showed them something amazing and then I got up and left literally. This is what happened.

They walked out the door of the church. They walked into the Kidron Valley. They crossed over the gates of hell blame count of the traffic. Oh, the first destination was called the garden of Gethsemane do not happen there. Some of them fell asleep while he prayed do not happen right there. I'm told that like the next day in the going to all the world. Some of them. The first thing they wanted to do was to pick up a sword and chop someone's ear off you know what happened out in the world with the same people that were affronted they were requested, they were persecuted, some of them were crucified upside down for this Jesus, who met in one room. Why did Jesus instruct them, maybe three reasons because he knew that with forgiveness. There is no future.

He knew that those same disciples would sit in their churches with hearts of unforgiveness.

And it doesn't work, and he knew that the great commission had at the very heart of everything that and burial and resurrection of Jesus, which means that all who come to Jesus because of his blood will receive the forgiveness of sin will be set free by want to be set free because they voted for this group or that group or because they thought that angriest because they brandish the biggest soul diverse Jameses fungi would not do this. Jesus wanted them to know there is no and it begins with you and me and none of us deserve forgiveness may be why Jesus instructed them was because without acceptance. There is no meaning that little word there without believing, holding, clinging to the cross without knowing that you know that you know that you know that Jesus is the Christ the son of the living God. You, but no meaning in your heart you'll die MT may be the reason why Jesus instructed them was because without this message, there is no hope. So here we all look at him, look at Jesus. For me personally.

Little of the beautiful season.

I'm sitting here just reading this and all of a sudden you think I get this off Julie's use off to rule the Lord's supper services.

I've been off rollover fellowship and off rule. The studies, but all of a sudden I sword Jesus gathering me inside his body, taking me back into the womb. Closing everything off, preventing me from seeing the traffic asking of me to stop.

Pay attention to him. All of a sudden I found myself paying attention and I listen to him.

He began to speak. Jesus took the bread broken and he said my son this is my body broken for you eat when you do remember me and then he took the cup, mesic drink this cup is the new covenant because of my blood without the shedding of blood. They can be no forgiveness of sin, and I took the cup and I drank it.

Then he turned to me and he said now pasta I would work for you.

I got some work for you to do.

I want you to go outside. I want you to point people to Jesus. Every time you do your proclaiming my did until I come back again, you talk about tomorrow's based news and all of a sudden I saw two groups of people.

One or group of people seeking a soul. The other group of people seeking the same 20 challenge.
