What is it we desperately need in these confusing days. This into Adrian Rogers and I want you to open your heart today program also made of this hour be on the shot of any doubt is true there is cowardice there may be some today were afraid of the truth. There is laziness that accepts part of the truth. There is arrogance that thinks it knows all of the true and there is true humility before God that opens one's heart so that you might receive what the Holy Spirit of God wants 50 I want to say there are three tremendous crew that you cannot learn in school.

Welcome to love worth finding you know there are some things no pastor or by the teacher can effectively teach read all the studies all the research and listen all the sermons there are certain concepts and truths which only the Holy Spirit can teach. In fact, so wedding evangelist and pastor Adrian Rogers said I can teach truth, but only the word of God can impart truth. If you have your Bible turn to the gospel of John chapter 16 will begin in verse eight as Adrian Rogers reveals three things you cannot learn in school and I want you to take God's word today and turn placed in John chapter 16 and I want to talk to you about the convicting, commencing power of the Holy Spirit Bible message. Three things that you cannot learn in school about by God for school. Whether some things that no schoolteacher can teach you for that matter that some things are no pastor can teach you. No Sunday school teacher can teach you but only the Holy Spirit can take you that men, women, boys and girls by nature are stunningly big. I think of Nicodemus. He was a master. This trailer ruler of the Jews, Jesus had remonstrate with instead, hard to master Israel and yet you don't know these things. Jesus was talking to him about spiritual things that I hope that you open your heart today to this truth. Now this is truth that only the Holy Spirit can give you say will pastor. If only the Holy Spirit can give this truth and why are you preaching because he uses human instruments.

He uses the word of God, but he is the teacher I've said many times, I can preach truth, but only he can impart proof.

I look in John chapter 16 in verse seven Jesus says nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not away, the comfort tour will not come on to you. But if I depart, I will send him to you. Now, the comfortable is the Holy Ghost. The Holy Spirit that I am directly Jesus and I am going to heaven but I will send the Holy Spirit to take my place. Now notice in verse eight, and when he is come that is the Holy Spirit when he is gone he will reprove the world of sin and of righteousness and judgment. Now the word reprove actually means convicted arc in Venice. He will convict, he will come Venice the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment.

Those are three things you have learned and skew the truth concerning Sam the 12th concerning righteousness and the truth concerning judgment. Notice verse nine of sin, because they believe not only of righteousness, because I go to my father and you see me no more judgment, because the Princess of this world is judged by what you open your heart today to prove because the need of this hour be on the shot of any doubt is true. Truth is the issue.

There is cowardice there may be some today were cowards were afraid of the truth.

There is laziness that accepts part of the truth. There is arrogance that thinks it knows all of the truth and there is true humility before God that opens one's heart so that you might receive what the Holy Spirit of God wants to teach. I want to say there are three tremendous prudence that if you've never seen them remember and say you say will I understand Sam righteousness and judgment maybe new intellectual but until the Holy Spirit of God teaches you these things, you will never know unless think of them one at a time. Three things that you will never learn in school.

First of all deals with the conception of San Juan is sin look in verse nine, Jesus said the Holy Spirit is come to convince men of sin not watch it because they believe not on me now. The Bible teaches that a man is a woman, a boy, a girly human being is a sinner for three basic reasons. First of all, he is a center because of what he is by nature. He is a natural born sinner. The Bible says in Ephesians chapter 2 in verse three that he is by nature a child of rack your little grandson yahoo granddaughter your precious newborn baby is by nature a child rap battle Holy Spirit of God has to remove a certain kind of ignorance and a heart. We think that men are wicked and sinful because of what they do. We think a man is a sinner because he lives because he steals because he commits adultery because he killed. He is not a center because he does these things he does these things because he is a seven man is not a lie because he tells lies, he tells lies because he is alive. A man is not a faith because he steals he steals because he is a thief. These things Jesus said, out of the heart. I've told you before if you find an apple with a wormhole you need more all that much. It is a mean there's a worm in the apple means there was a worm in the Apple worm did not eat his way and he ate his way out. The worm was born in Napa is a how to get in there VA was laid in the blossom, then that worm was hatched and made his way out of that now there is in the very blossom of human nature, a thing that the Bible calls sin. What we see coming out is what has been born on the inside is a manager center because of what is if is a dog that's rabbit that dog askew perhaps is not bitten anybody why is he killed not because of what he has done what he is capable of doing. You see the sin that were capable of doing is the sin that is down in our hearts.

Latent that God sees where the never comes to the surface and not whether the worm ever gets to the surface and not whether the dog ever bites anybody not that's the reason the Reformation will never do for sin. You tell a man he's a center if these amount of this world convicting Bob Holy Spirit. He says well I'll do better.

I'll quit. Maybe he's a drunkard and he says well I will drink anymore. Maybe he's an adult and he says I will not commit adultery more take a log out of the forest. Cut it down and bring it to the sawmill weblog may be crooked, put it on the cradle there in the sawmill and run it through that the sawmill and this all led me buzzing blade cuts off one side, turn that log run it through again and cut off the other side, turn it again and cut off the other and then finally you have a log from the outside perfectly square perfectly straight. But look at it from the end and the heart is still crooked. That's way men are. That's what Reformation is. You may clean up the outside. You may say well I am that I am a straight, and square as a man can be. The Bible says in your heart that your heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Therefore, if a man is a drunkard and he stopped drinking without getting say you go to hell sober. What I'm trying to say is this Batman has a problem and the problem is only inside and you might as well admit it.

You are a sinner, not primarily because of what you do, but because of what you all now people have tried to explain away send the evolution of says that man is a center because he hadn't had sufficient time to develop the environmentalist says that man is a sinner because he is been molded and shaped by sources on the outside and what he means is a better atmosphere. The educator says there is no such thing as sin.

It is only ignorance and if we could educate a man we would be able to deal with this and levitate. What a Minnesota crime commission report said, studying the matter of juvenile delinquency.

I want your parents to listen to this, every baby starts life as a little savage. He is completely selfish and self-centered. He wants what he wants when he wants it is bottled his mother's attention is playmates toys his uncles watch what ever deny him leaves and he see this with rage and aggressiveness, which would be murderous if he were not so helpless. He's dirty.

He has no morals, no knowledge, no developed skills.

This means that all children not just certain children but all children are born delinquent if permitted to continue in this self-centered world of infancy if given free reign to their impulsive actions to satisfy everyone of them. Every child would brought the criminal that you little bit you say, not my little baby is your little baby he is by nature a child rap that lives in Madison is a center number one because of what is and then because of what he is. He does what he does. That is a will I take umbrage at the fact that you say that I'm a sinner by nature are either less talk about what you do. Romans chapter 3 verse 10 as it is written, there is non-righteous, no not one. I want to say in your heart. Not even me to agree with God. There is none righteous, no not one.

There is, and that understanding is that seek after God. They are all gone out of the way they are together become unprofitable. There is not that do a good one. Folks get that in your heart. Romans 323 for all sin and come short of the glory of God that your nature is the poison well your sins that you do the poison bitter water that comes out of that. Well yes I will. I don't kill and I don't steal what about your thought life.

Jesus said, lust is adultery.

Jesus said hate is murder.

Jesus destroyed a civilization with a flood because of the imaginations of man's heart. Now you know the word sin is going out of loop today. We have redefined sin and defined out of existence deal of the word abortion used to mean is used to mean a miscarriage. If a baby inadvertently died in the mother's womb.

That was a sad and tragic thing and they said well that may be was aborted what the real word is is not abortion. It is infanticide killing a baby, but now we like abortion, so the abortionists have changed that word even now they think the killing of the baby and they call that abortion but they said no. Let's see if we get a nicer sounding phrase and so they call it pro-choice Venice sound a lot better than not abortion certainly sounds better than infanticide. But you know they like that so much. I said let's get something better than pro-choice.

Let's use reproductive rights, and all know that's not enough. Let's call it reproductive freedom. Let's call it killing babies is currently killing babies rather than reproductive freedom which is saying we don't like the idea of sin.you know the Bible speaks of last and last. When recalling don't entertainment. We look around and receive a rape, sexual violence and immorality in our land board last sounds too much like Sam doesn't the Bible calls sexual immorality, fornication, the Bible calls it adultery. What we call it, sexually active, that's what they call fornication today that teenagers sexually active have what we call adultery having an affair using what we've done deal of the Bible: a woman who sells sex. The Bible calls her a four and a Harley there what the Bible calls a man who pays for her services. The Bible calls him a warmonger.

What we call it the day a call girl what we call him today a playboy. The Bible calls sexual perversion, sodomy calls these people do this.

Some nights when we call today.

Homosexuals we call them days when recalling today an alternative lifestyle as if God has several lifestyles and you can pick the one you want what we we have defined sin existence by the Bible calls Sam.

Sam and the Bible says all have sin and come short of the glory of God. A man is a sin because of what he is. He is by nature a child around a man is a center because of what he endows any does what he does because he is what he is.

But what is our tech site. What is the Bible say that the Holy Spirit has come in big Mama look again if you will, and see what the Bible says in verse nine he is comic and big Mama sin meet clause they believe not own me that that's the part most of us can understand thus far, but when we get to this part. Then we see that the Holy Spirit of God convicts a man of sin not only because of what he is, not only because of what he is done, but the Bible convicts him of sin because of what he did of sin, because he believes when you talk about sin telling lies, stealing last average Americans as well. Yes, everybody's got his little falls for everybody makes mistakes but I don't think that God would let me go to hell forever because I told a lie that would be like putting a man in the penitentiary for life for stealing a loaf of bread whole frame.

When you understand the nature of sin.

You can't help the way you abortion and therefore you do what you do because you were born with a sinful nature but old there is a sin, a damning sin, horrible sin, a wicked sin a file. Sam, a terrible sin, a condemning sin that most of the world never thinks about what it is not believing in Jesus Christ, not believing on Jesus Christ class because they believe not only what ISN said is a clenched fist in the face of God.

Sam is failing to bow the knee sin is by reason against heavens King.

Only the Holy Spirit can teach you the when you see that you are guilty of high treason against heavens King that you remember about the Manteo maker, but one who died and I am in blood three Obama cloths when you see that you've ignored. Sperm refused him a venue understand why the Bible calls you a sin. I pray the Holy Spirit of God will convict you of that.

But this verse in your memory in your margin. John three verse 18 Jesus said, concerning himself the son of man, he that believes on him is not can then but he that believe us all on him is condemned already, because he is not believed in the name of the only begotten son of God. Unbelief is the greatest sin and unbelief is the parents and it is the mother sin. The policy in the Senate, which all of the sins are grown and was unbelief that caused Adam and Eve to sin in the Garden of Eden, Holy Spirit of God, help me to say this court room may convict you of crimes consciousness will convict you of wrongdoing, but only the Holy Spirit of God will truly convict you of sin. When you understand what sin is. You will not be strutting your way to hell thinking you're too good to be Dan. When you understand that you have said no to the Lord Jesus Christ. If you've never really open your heart and received him as your Lord and Savior, then you will say God be merciful to me a set Holy Spirit of God teaches first of all true conception of sin, of sin, because they believe not.

There is the second through the Holy Spirit will teach something you'll never learn in school not only the conception of sin, but the completion salvation.

The completion of salvation. Look, if you will now in the next verse, verse 10 of righteousness, because I go to my father and you see me know he comes convict of sin and of righteousness to give a conception of sin and to show the completion of salvation know what is a say of righteousness, because I go to my father well he left the father's house. He came down after that the dark should be in my out of the ivory palaces into this world. What we lived a sinless prepping lie.

He came to let fall. She took my sin, your sin, our sin upon the cross, he suffered bland and died in the unmentionable, indescribable horror and pain died upon that cross. He was later met cool to be came out of that tomb the third day living risen victorious over sin and death hell and the grave payoffs 700 to the father to present his blood there before the fall in that tabernacle in heaven. That's what is talking about when he says I go to my father. I am going back to my father.

It is done. I have paid the price for redemption and now there is one way one and only one way that a man can be righteous is through my death, burial and resurrection and ascension back to the flock. Now, with the Holy Spirit of God can teach you that because man is ignorant is ignorant, not only concerning sin is also ignorant concerning righteousness.

What is the average person thing. The average person thinks he is a sinner. If he does wrong, so therefore he is righteous to be those right in that right in that what the average person thinks the average person thinks that righteousness comes by doing and being good but this verse in your margin. Romans 10 in verse three Paul spoke of the Jews of his day and is what he said about them, for they being ignorant of God's righteousness elicits me of God's righteousness and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. The only hope that a man has of righteousness is Jesus you agree with that today. The only hope you have of righteousness is Jesus.
