Pro 3:1-6
Intro.
Take advantage of the opportunity! At the risk of sounding like a salesman, Solomon, is saying, when the opportunity of Mercy and Truth come knocking on your door, don’t refuse, don’t turn it down!
Mercy is not letting sin slide, but rather a recognition of that sin, judgment cast, and the sentence remitted or forgiven.

Psalm 103:1-5
Introduction
We are drawing to a close of book number 4 of the Psalms. These last few Psalms close with praise to God. Many Psalms are prayers, complaints, and crying to the Lord, these are more about praise God for who He is.
• Starts off with a hearty blessing… this is not merely a lip service praise, but a praise with the entirety of his being, even down to his soul!
• A blessed NAME! (1)
◦ Bless his holy name… people profane his name today… but his name is Holy and Blessed!
Isaiah 9:6 — For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Psalm 119:73-75
Introduction
This section is JOD, which if you look at the Hebrew letter in your Bible, it is the smallest letter… Just like it says in Matthew 5:18
Matthew 5:18 — For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
David is up on the mountain tops, or down in valleys with little in between. We find him in this portion, down in the valley. With troubles, and hardships. Each time we see David in a valley, he comes out rejoicing. We find God, and the Word of God to always be his source of help, and strength. A great lesson for us.

Mark 14:54, 66-72
Introduction
I covered this last week, but I felt impressed to re-visit this passage and cover it again. You may be aware of a well known baptist preacher who fell in sin. My friend Sam Robinson said this, “The pulpit has failed the pew, but the pew has also failed the pulpit.” It is a two way street. I’m not going to address a particular situation, but suffice it to say if you are in church for any length of time, you will find that people will fail you. Sometimes you will be very discouraged or hurt by those who fall. It will blindside you, you will never see it coming, and it will hurt. I have always said, the taller a tree grows the more damage is does when it falls. The more influence you have, the greater the disappointment that goes with it. It doesn’t matter if you know of the situation or not, there will be another in the news, and another. It is not new, and as long as Christ tarries his coming, it will not end.

Proverbs 21
Introduction
We have the six miscellaneous verses left in Proverbs 21 that I couldn’t put into a category. So we will cover several things and try to get through all of them this evening. These could all be thrown into a very general category of Life. How to live life.

Question:
If we repent and make known our sins to God, then we are forgiven, do we still pay for those sins at the judgement seat (when we pass away)? Such as fornication, blasphemy, etc.?
This is a great question.
In order to understand this, we must clearly define some things. So let’s take a look at Scripture, and find out what the Bible says.

Introduction
I want to preach on the Perils of Pardon ****When God forgives someone you haven’t. That is a problem! There are signs and symptoms that are evident. Let look at them this afternoon.
Luke 15:25-32
Eph. 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

Introduction
I want to preach on the topic of Forgiveness in accordance to our theme, "Looking unto Jesus" and considering his forgiveness. Given the current circumstances we find our self in, there is a great opportunity to learn what God expects. Furthermore, I believe there is a great deal of unforgiving that goes on in christianity in general. I'm not aware, and am not insinuating that anyone here has harbored un-forgiveness. Honestly, I don't know of any. It can be well hidden, and maybe only you know about it.
