Who Are You Brokenhearted Over?

This is the Truth Network. Welcome to Truth Talk Live. All right, let's talk the truth news. I can't hide it. A daily program powered by the Truth Network.

This is kind of a great thing, and I'll tell you what. Where pop culture, current events, and theology all come together. Speak your mind. And now, here's today's Truth Talk Live host. It is nine three or September the third.

And so if you are with Doctor Date Lord Carson, as I am currently, then the question you may be wondering based on Romans nine three is who are you So brokenhearted over that you literally w would wish a curse on yourself. Or maybe, who were you that brokenhearted over in your past? And you prayed. And you cried. And you begged.

And then someday God opened up the door, and you got to either watch them. Be led to Christ, or you've got to take part in that process, however, that worked.

Well It does work because Romans 9:3 says, and no words are going to come back void. And this is Paul speaking because he was brokenhearted over his brothers.

So he's talking about. His brothers, the Jews.

So for I wish that I myself were accursed from Christ. For my brothers, my countrymen, according to the flesh, meaning that these were my family. He was that brokenhearted that he wished that he himself would be, that God would turn his back on him. And so. In your life, right?

Have you got somebody like right now you want to call in? We would pray for, we would love to do that. Or Maybe there's somebody in your life You were broken over, hearted over for a time, as I was, honestly, for my brother, for my sister, and prayed for them for years and years and years, and then beyond. My wildest dreams, especially my brother's conversion, like, oh my, that I got to see. Um What?

He did. In those situations. But we got a very, very special caller. Immediately, the lines lit up. We got Bucksman in Ohio, but also, and we're going to get to Bucksman in a minute, we have somebody whose name is Clayton Carson.

I recognize that name. As a relative of Dr. Date the Word Carson.

So, Clayton, I'm guessing you've got somebody like that in your life. Oh.

Well, I pastor people that have that kind of person in their life, certainly. Um and it's Uh um my my my dad, Doctor Deep the Word as as you put it, he sent me a text with you were Talking about of Romans nine three. And it's that heartbrokenness over the loss. And one of the things I think of, and what I tell people as I'm pastoring. People to be more evangelistic.

One of the things that I tell people is there's two great reasons. to evangelize. The first is people are going to help. And I think honestly, one of the biggest things that we miss is that we can forget that if we don't share the gospel, someone can go to hell. Um because we failed to.

And I'm of the belief that if we fail in that duty, God's going to tell us that at the judgment seat. But I think the second great reason to evangelize, especially that person who just seems so lost and so even stubborn is Christ is worthy to save them. I think that's something that we can give up on sometimes of where we go. I don't. Uh I don't know if This person wants to talk about the gospel anymore.

Well, it's not about that person, it's what is Christ worthy of? And Christ is worthy to save. He's mighty to save, but he's also worthy to save. That's beautiful, absolutely.

Well, DACA, it's your son. Yeah, well, thanks for calling in, Clayton. And I know that you've got a huge burden for the lost. You always have. Christ is worthy to save.

He's worthy to share. Um We have such a great message. Even though people many times, first and foremost, reject it. As people have a burden for them, those hearts become soft and they receive Christ. And it is amazing how many stories are out there, Robbie, like yours, like mine.

We first reject it. This is not a message for me. I don't need this message. I don't want this message. But then, because someone kept praying and someone kept witnessing, hearts become soft and hearts turn to the Lord.

That's beautiful. Absolutely. Clayton, thank you for your call. God bless you. Keep up the good work.

We appreciate you very much. Thank you. God bless. Thanks. All right, we got Buxman himself.

So Buxman, you're on Truth Talk Live. Good afternoon.

Well, first thing I got to say, brothers, is The fruit definitely fell from the tree. Listening to that dear young man, Dr. Carson's son, I. I'm jealous, doctor Carson. I wish I would have trained my child up in the way that they should go so that when he got old like your son, he would not depart.

I have to say, I failed that when I sinned against Uh, my wife, um, but but I'm praying.

So, to add to that list, Robbie, it would be my children first, which would be my Jerusalem. And as their divorced dad, I pray for them like Job did in Job chapter one. Yes, um, and that's what I do, Dr. Carson. And so, that's they're my first ministry because obviously, because they're my offspring, and I'm hoping that my uh decision to do what I did to end the marriage between their mother and I will be um will be healed.

Through the work of other Christians. And I do know that my son. Is showing signs of Christianity because of the posts that he's posted on his Instagram. That his grandfather sends me and says, Bossman, you know, Your son's doing pretty well work. But the other one that I have a burden for, gentlemen, is just like a young Dr.

Carson. I think is he a doctor, Dr. Carson, your son? He's getting there. He's writing his dissertation.

Uh right now working on that. That's awesome. That's awesome. And I'm your biggest cheerleader, young Carson. But my burden is just like what Young Carson was saying, is the loss.

I agree one thousand percent. I have that same Compulsion that, wow, Busk, if you don't get that lost man saved, you will be held accountable. Because, you know, Ezekiel 3 kind of talks about this. But we are entrusted now with the very words of God, Christians. And if we don't speak, others will die.

If we don't speak, others will capital D Die in their sins, and that is left to us. If we just stay quiet, and not even invite them to church. And a lot of people don't invite people to their churches even more anymore, Robbie and Dr. Carson. So let alone tell them personally what they've learned in that church.

That they've been in for 10, 20, 30 years, they haven't said anything to the lost man or woman. We have got to change that. We've got to change that. Move in whatever strength you have today, Judges chapter 6. If you know a little bit of the Bible, tell a little bit of the Bible to a stranger.

If you know a lot of the Bible, tell a lot of the Bible to the stranger. We have got. To get the lost saved, we're running out of time. And then the next one I will say, that's kind of a broad view. But my heart is really burdened.

For the Jewish people, And the Muslim people. I minister, and Truth Talk Mike from right here in Dayton knows this because I talked with brother Mike. Regularly now, thanks to Nick, the producer, connecting our telephone numbers, since we both live in the same vicinity. Mike and I talk a lot and Mike knows I minister to the Jewish people in Dayton, Ohio, and I minister to the Muslim people in Dayton, Ohio. How do I do that?

By loving them, by treating them as God's created. And then I remember what John wrote to me. the Apostle John, greater is he who is in me, Buskman, than he who is in those folks. And you love on them with the love of Christ, even if they hate you back. And I've had that happen.

From one of the main groups, and I'll name them. They're the Jewish people. I have had more pushback from Jewish people than I have from the Muslims that I deal with. The Muslims receive me, and I'm able to work with them. Most of the Jewish people that I've worked with do not.

And I have to pray for you. That's beautiful, though, that you're doing that. We've got to go to a break. Bustman, stay with us. All right, God bless you.

We'll be back. How about you? Who are you brokenhearted over? Who can we pray with you for? You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com.

Welcome back to True Talk Live. It is. September 3rd or 9:3, which means that. We got this question based on Romans 9:3. Who, really, seriously, who have you ever been just brokenhearted?

Like you had a sense like, oh my gosh, I do not want this loved one. I do not want my friend. I do not want this man I just met to experience eternity. Like, how can we even begin to fathom? How can we even begin to fathom what it would be like Never to see The loving eyes of a single human, never to see the loving eyes of God, to be completely isolated.

To be in total agony. In total thirst. In total torment. without any kind of comfort whatsoever because There is no love, there is no joy, there is no peace, there is no patience, there is no kindness. No gentleness.

And certainly You're in a place where there is no self-control. And so, oh my goodness. And when I think of anybody, like your worst enemy. How could you possibly want that for anybody? My challenge, honestly, is.

Lord, help me. to get that brokenhearted over even the people that Rub me the wrong way. Whatever that may look like.

So, how about you? Who are you? Brokenhearted over who can we pray for and with. We want you to call us 866-348-7884. And Buxman had to go, but I don't want to miss this opportunity to pray with you, Dr.

Carson, about Bucksman's son, right? Because we heard him say that, that his heart's broken over that. And so, Lord, I thank you for Buxman. I thank you for his heart for his family. And I pray that you would.

You know, come for all of them, as he said, to heal the broken hearts over what's happened with the divorce, but most of all, right, to show them the way to you. Lord, we pray that. You're definitely worthy to come in and to change their hearts and their lives, that they would come to know you, that they would come to a salvation that would be. Um More than they could ever dream, and that you would actually be able to reunite the families of those people that we're praying for, not just Bucksman, but so many children right now. And we ask this in Jesus' name.

Amen. But also, if you've got a story, and we'd love to hear this, you can call us at 866-348-7884. You were brokenhearted for this person. You prayed, and then God gave you the opportunity to see them come to Christ. Or to you know, take part in that.

And Dr. Carson can tell an amazing story in a second. But Nikita Kolov himself, right, the Russian nightmare, if you ever met him, an amazing man of God does the man up show here on the Truth Network, was a professional wrestler. Part of the story of his salvation. was the day he went to the altar.

Right in a church. in Charlotte or Cannapolis actually, I think it was, where he went to the altar. But after he was saved, Right. And at this point in time, he'd been out of wrestling for about a year, a year and a half. And this gentleman comes up, older gentleman, kind of sickly looking.

After he'd given his heart to Christ, they're walking out of the church. This guy goes. You're just not going to believe this, but Whatever it was, three, four, five years ago, I was watching this wrestling match, and God just broke my heart for you. Hmm. and told me That he wanted you to go into the ministry and that you needed to be saved, and I was to begin praying for you.

And I have been praying for you.

Now, he'd never seen Nikita in his life, he saw him in a wrestling match, right? And he started praying for him diligently for years. I don't remember the exact number Nikita could tell you. But I mean, how amazing How spectacular is God that that man that had been praying for Nikita, just based on seeing him in that church, that he happened to be in the church and he actually witnessed Nikita, and wouldn't you? I mean, he's pretty easy to spot in the crowd because he's huge.

Like, I mean, I that story will always give me such joy. Because that's how faithful God is. That He wanted Him to see it. And of course, Nikita not only came to Christ in a big way, but certainly has ministered through Nikita for years right now. Had you heard that before, Doctor?

No, I haven't. Wow. It reminds me of Doctor Falwell. on how every January he would take his Bible and write down the the names of ten people. He called it his top ten most wanted list.

And he'd have names on it of people that were involved in the media, People involved in Hollywood, people involved in sports. And he would start praying for opportunities to talk to them and share Christ with them. Um Larry Flint. The publisher of that pornographic magazine Hustler. was always on his list as someone that he was praying for to get saved and and and Larry Flint knew Unlike the songs, he did.

He did. And. Uh He he had held he said, you know, I I I lived differently, but he cared and loved me and prayed for me. Um And so I guess I'd take from your story. About Nikita, folks, you might be watching something on TV.

Um hearing about someone That, like, this gentleman, Lord, is there someone I should write down and just start praying for? that they would get saved. And and while we have Romans 9.3 today, we're going to have Romans 10.1, where Paul will later say, My heart's desire and my uh A prayer is that Israel will be saved. You take the word Israel out and put that name in there.

So this gentleman, somewhere along the line, he may not have known he was doing Romans 10:1, but he was Lord save Nikita. Lord send somebody to witness to him. Lord, soften his heart so that when he hears the gospel, And you got to tell a story about the time you were going to the Evangelistic meeting, what? Yeah, years ago when I was just getting started in ministry, I was asked to do a revival for this church, and we were encouraging them to bring friends and family members and be praying and fervently praying for souls to be saved. And as we were getting ready to go out, the choir is going to go out in front of me, and as we're going out, this lady stops.

And she looks right at me and she says, Pastor, I have fervently been praying all day, and I can see it right now. Tears start coming down her eyes. face coming out of her eyes, down her cheek. I've been praying all day. for my son to get saved to night.

And when I gave that invitation, her son was the first one to step out. She had nephews and nieces that also got saved that night, but her son stepped out and came forward. And you talk about the Psalms 126, they shall come rejoicing. having been weeping for those sowing those s uh tears of joy um she was weeping now tears of joy because she had wept for her son to be saved. Yeah, don't those stories they bring such hope, right?

And you've got one that you could literally bring hope to a mom somewhere or a dad somewhere or who knows. 866-348-7884. 866-348-7884. We got True Talk Mike himself. How are you doing, Mike?

I'm doing good. Buxon text me and he told me thank you for your prayers, Robbie. He really appreciated that. And so he wanted me to text you and tell you that, but I'll just tell you that on there. You're welcome.

He's Um Anyways, um I love what Dr. Carson said just recently. Pray for the loss. Man, I've been I've been praying for my neighbors and um And it's kind of amazing how much opportunity I have to keep sharing the gospel with them. And there's a neighbor right across the street from me.

He's a fireman. He had a lawnmower that was smoking. Mike, we got to go to a break, but I'm excited about the smoking lawnmower neighbor. And whoever, I mean, keep calling us. We need your stories.

866-348-7884-866-34 Truth. We're going to hear about the neighbors coming up. I need that convicted me. I need to pray for Michael. I'm like, oh, man.

My man. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Welcome back to Truth Talk Live today. I love this. I love this idea of Romans 9:3 and how Paul himself.

was so brokenhearted over his brothers, the Jews. that were blinded because then I'm ensure he could relate. I mean, you know, everybody can't have a Damascus road experience, apparently. But you can imagine how he felt that he knew how lost he was. And he said that he wished himself accursed, meaning he wished God would turn his back on him, that his brothers, meaning in the flesh, his fleshly brothers, Jewish brothers, would come to know the Lord and Man, you know, what a prayer opportunity that is for us, for God to break our heart like that.

And when we left our hero Mike, but before. Before I go to Mike. Man, we need those stories. You know, I was so encouraged, so encouraged by the stories that I've heard. And I want to hear yours.

866-348-7884. 866-348-7884. And so. You had a neighbor and their lawnmower uh was mosquito dusting the neighborhood, right? Right.

Um, he put too much oil in it. Right. And uh And he was a fireman. And But it it smoked up the whole neighborhood. My wife said, Is his house on fire?

I said, Yeah, that's the fireman's house. You know, that's the guy, you know. And then so I walked over and he's in his backyard, and he's He's riding that long more around and then smoking up the whole area. And I started laughing. And uh Why 'cause I knew my wife was calling the f fire department.

So the fire department so the fire department started they came and you could hear the sirens in the background. I stopped in my waiting down and I said, Hey, but Uh You smoked up the neighborhood, and my wife just called the fire department. He says, Well, they don't have nothing else to do. It'll be okay. Good practice run for them.

You know, that's what he said. And so had you been had you had you been praying for him already, Mike? Yes, I have been praying for him, and I thought this, you know, we had a storm the other, a couple. you know, maybe several months ago and his power was out. And my power came on, and I dragged my generator.

I knocked on his door and I dragged my generator over, and I said, Hey, I know your power's still not on your house. Do you want to borrow my generator? He said, Oh, my wife would love that.

So I let him borrow my generator and I got I got to talk to him about God then. He gave me a big bottle of whiskey and I it's still up in my cabinet. It's probably expensive. I Probably. Anyways, I have that up in my cabinet and So, anyways, he's smoking up the neighborhood.

The firemen come and stuff like that. I was able to sit on the porch with him a little bit. And talk to him about God afterwards. Um He's still not receptive yet. You know what I mean?

But. He's He's listening. Oh, shoot, you thought you asked me too fast. I'm sorry. What?

I call him the fireman. Yes. Just give my name if you're fireman.

Well, we need to pray, right?

So, Mike, I thank you for your heart. I really do. And, Lord, I thank you for your heart, which you know is breaking for the fireman much more than ours, as you know, as we can't even fathom what faces him if he doesn't make some different life choices. And so, Lord, we pray that he would see in Mike a light that he. Will realize that he's missing.

I pray that you would bring messages into his life, however, you get him there. Lord, we pray that he would come to know you and that he would understand. Truly, what at the end of Psalm 16 says, In your presence is fullness of joy. At your right hand are pleasures, not horrors, but pleasures forevermore. We pray this for him in Jesus' name.

Amen. So Mike, you convicted me immediately. I was like, man, Robbie, are you really praying for your neighbors? And I was like. No.

So thank you, my brother. Believe me, I'm adding him to my list.

Well, please do because the opportunities will come. Right, it is. I got five more stories I could tell you easily, but you know what I mean?

Well give us give us one. Don't give us five story.

Okay. There's a neighbor across the street. He had just added a pool to his house. That's a good place to do a baptism. Right.

See how I'm always thinking? And well, anyways. My dog passed away, and he happened to be running, and I told him, Hey, my dog passed away.

So that got me an opportunity to talk to him and be more friendly. He was really a shy guy.

So I've been, he's been across the street with me for about 15, 10 years, and I've never. I mean, I've talked to him about a handful of times and he was like I don't want to talk to you. And, you know, he didn't say that, but he ran away. But, anyways, he built a pool in his backyard, and he came to me after I told him my dog passed away, and then maybe that softened his heart, you know? And he says, I got a pool in the backyard, and I want to build a A cover over it with an all-season room.

Can you help me with the design? I said, yeah, sure. I'm sorry, I don't have time right now, but I'll do that when I have time.

Well, last weekend, I'm praying for my neighbors, you know what I mean? And last weekend I said. I seen him out in the driveway and I said, Hey, do you want to talk about the forest in the backyard? He said, Oh, that would be great. And so we talked about the forest and I'm sorry, I didn't have an answer for him.

His roof line was all over the place. And I think I do have an answer now after talking to some other guys that I know. But anyways. Yeah. We started talking about the roof line.

I said, man, this is crazy. I don't know where to end it here trying to save you cost. You know, if you do this and it costs more money. Anyways, to make a long story short. I said Yeah.

You know, at the end, we're in the driveway, and after we walk away from the The back porch. I says, you know, how can you go through life not knowing God. And he does.

Well You know, I was raised a Christian. I believe that there's a God, but what do you mean by not knowing him? And that was the opportunity. You know what I mean? I said this world and he's a Trump supporter.

He puts the Trump sign out there. And that's kind of how I started the conversation. And the world's crazy. And then I said, how can you go through this world without knowing God? And he went, you know, and then and then he He was intrigued by that, and that was pretty awesome.

Oh man, you gave me a little bit of a message. Yeah, well there you go. And I shared a couple verses from Romas Road. Thanks to Dr. Carson about that one show about memorizing verses.

I've been trying to do my best with that. It's not easy. I'm not that good at it. Uh But I'm still trying. I'm writing them down.

I'm meditating on them. And I'm really trying. Um God brings them to my remembrance when I need them. That's awesome, isn't it? That's it.

Yes, that's awesome. That is. That's awesome. That's wonderful, Mike. God bless you, man.

Keep up the great work. You inspire us all. Because we all have lots of neighbors, I can assure you.

So keep up the great work, and I'm sure we'll talk next week.

Okay, cool. Bye-bye. 866. Right? Let no story story gonna go untold.

866-348-7884. 866-348-7884. So Well, that thing you just said, Robbie, let no story go untold. You know, the disciples came back to Jesus. and told him the things they got to do.

And uh I just picture him with a smile on his face as he listened. to them tell about going out soul winning and um doing the work he had called them to do. And so for our listeners, please call this kind of twofold here. One, the side of how your heart was broken and you prayed for someone and they got saved. But then the other side If you call right now and say you are heartbroken over somebody, it could be a Uh friend.

It could be a relative. Could be an associate, could be a neighbor. We'll take time and pray with you right now that they will come to know the Lord and. And my prayer with this show is that we'll all leave with a greater burden for the lost. Right.

And the neat thing is, you were talking about that, Dr. Carson, is I can't help but say that. These good works were prepared for us in advance. In other words, he set you up. You're fixed to make a dunk shot, but let me just tell you: daddy's holding you up over the basket, okay?

And You know, I've experienced this on on so many occasions, but You know, when it comes close, like it's your family, which I had that opportunity with both my oldest sister and my brother, who I had prayed for for years. Yeah. The one with my sister, I've told my brother's story on the air many times about the bear and all that. It's amazing. But my oldest sister had gotten into some stuff that I would have thought that she was, you know, just like there's no way.

Like, you know, she had gone to India to to when she was younger to hang out with a Guru, and you know, if you'd been to her wedding, you had to see it to believe it. They were using the ostrich feathers and all, and it was just. It was my sister. She was from the 60s like me, and she, you know. She was out there.

Well, she calls me one day. And again, I've been praying for years and years and years. I mean, and she is in her 70s when this happens. And she calls me and she says, Robbie, I think I've got demons or something that are coming after me, and I sense they have to do with these books that they're in my house that I've studied that have to do. with the occult different things that she pointed out.

And I was like, well. Cindy, first of all, get those out of your like now. And I would really suggest if you can burn them, do that. Burn them like they don't ever need to be anybody's hand. Make them go away and then let's pray over your house, right?

And so we did that, and she did it, which was kind of surprising to me. Like, okay, but God's holding me up on this dunk shot, right? And For years, we have done a Passover supper. And for years, I have bought a lamb, and I have a couple groups of guys that we. Revere this lamb the way that Isaac would have revered his son when he took him up there on Mount Moriah.

It's the same time of year that's going on, right? Abraham, right. We had a lamb that was that was gonna be Yeah. Processed that morning, and my friend Ricky Corn was coming from the mountains, and I was supposed to meet him to process this lamb. when my sister calls.

And we'll tell the rest of that story, but we would love to tell yours: 866-348-7884-866-34-TRUT. We'll be right back. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Yeah. Welcome back to Truth Talk Live.

It is 9-3. And so with Dr. Date, the word Carson here. And his wonderful app, Date the Word, you'll find that today, Romans 9:3, where Paul says specifically. Right?

For I wish that I myself were accursed for Christ, for my brothers, my countrymen according to the flesh. In other words. He was so brokenhearted. at the thought of his brothers facing an eternity apart from God. That he wanted to be.

Right. Spend that eternity apart from God. And. You know, what a cool thing God allows us to do, which is to pray for the people that we love. Pray for our neighbors, pray for people that He puts on our path that tells us to pray for, and so I'd done that for, I don't know, I came to Christ and 1991 and so this is I don't know about four years ago, maybe five years ago.

And so a lot of years. And We had the situation with the book, and about three days later, she called me in early in the morning. And again, my friend was I was supposed he was supposed to call me when I was supposed to meet him at the place where we were going to do this because I had to drive clear out to Yadginville about a half an hour to make all this stuff happen. And this had to happen because We had a Passover Seder to do. She calls me balling that morning.

And it's getting like three or four days after the other incident. Like, Robbie, will you pray for me? I need Jesus. I need, can you help me? Right?

It was. Like the the What do I say? What do I do? You know, how do we do this? And the Lord, you know, gave me the grace.

I mean, just, you know, like I happened to be there. He did it. I know exactly who did it. And I can see the fruit of it. Even this day, I was telling Dr.

Carson, you should see the list of verse she sent me today. I mean, just like, that's how much she is in love with Jesus at this point in time. And she bawled, and we bawled, and we just had, and we've had such glorious talks since that day. But one of the miraculous things about that was my friend Ricky Corn was coming all the way from near Asheville. to meet me to do this.

And he didn't call. And so I got up and I was on the phone with my sister maybe an hour. The hour and a half. As soon as I got off the phone, because the whole time I'm feeling the pressure of like, man, Ricky's gonna need, you know, and I call Ricky and he says, Robbie, the Lord told me. You had extremely urgent Business that you were attending to that you would be in touch with me when you were done.

And I know he was completely sincere in what he said. And Yeah. You know, it was one of those confirmations. God's just giving you think and then. The time of year it was, it was right at Easter, which is very connected to my sister and me because I was diagnosed with that lymphoma cancer, which my sister at the time worked for the University of Michigan Hospital.

So you can see she's in Ann Arbor in Liberalville. And. Yeah. She was very instrumental at the time. Of some of the events that led to my healing.

However, she herself. God had done in that situation. because she was in medical field and all these kind of things. But it was so fascinating to me that God not only did it, not only gave me the grace to do it, but it was exactly at that time of year. For which he obviously went to the cross.

And it was through Ricky Korn's testimony. And so. Man, don't give up hope. You're praying for that loved one. Yeah.

It's amazing. Hello. Robbie, what has brought about a broken heart. For family? Was there anything specific that kind of.

generated this, I've got to be have a greater burden. for my family my friends, neighbors. any anything like that with you that was kind of a catalyst Uh uh But over the years Yeah, tending good. Sermons where the pastor literally would talk about how horrible hell was. Or you remember they had that whole thing.

It was heaven's gates, hell's flames, there was a plane. But I the Lord allowed me through wonderful teaching actually To experience those kinds of things. But we got Kenneth in Statesville, Ohio. And he's got a story for us. Kenneth, you're on Truth Talk Live.

My dad daddy the First World War. Really? Texas in Ohio.

Thank you, Kenneth. God bless you, my friend. 866-348-7884. We had Stu for a minute. We lost him.

But Stu, we don't want to not get you in if you you know. Oh, wow. Stu called in. I you and I were talking a little bit earlier about his father. That man had such a burden.

for people to come to know the Lord. And um And here's our boss, the same thing. We've got to get Jesus to every person. Because that's the only way we can get to go to heaven. And um You know, I was asking you about how did you get your burden.

Good preaching, it not only tells us about heaven, but good preaching is going to tell the truth. There is an eternity. And there's this story in Luke 16 about what hell is really like. And we do know there's a desire in hell right now. Every person there is wishing that every one of their family members and friends and neighbors could hear the gospel so they wouldn't have to come to the place they're in right now.

And so we've got the message, Robbie. We've got to take it. And I think, again, this Romans 9:3 has challenged me since all the way back when I was at the Crystal College that Got to have a burden and a broken heart for the lost because they are, they will die and go to hell without Jesus Christ. That's a good time to pray, right? Lord, break our hearts.

Mm. Help us to see the importance of this. Help us to understand Somewhat what it would mean for someone. Help us to see that and feel it, that we would be compelled, that we that we would love them enough to tell them the truth, that they would never face such a reality, Lord. Help us to be your Partners in this, and that we might experience your glory through it.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Thank you all for listening today. And it is 9:30, so it's not too late to pray. We've got plenty of time. I'll be right next back tomorrow with Mike's Witch.
