But I do see in some Reformed people that they believe so much in election— and predestination as it's spoken about in in the bible and and i'll go specifically to romans 9 through 11. now what they're not seeing there also is that as we spoke about in the last uh your last episode they're not seeing those words of that same apostle

uh paul who said that he basically is in agony because of the lostness of the jewish people wow his heart is just in he he says it's an anguish in one translation and so i think that if our theology is lowering our temperature for evangelism there's something wrong with our theology

Amen. Amen. And I love that last thing you put on there, brother, for the sake of his name, because, you know, as you and I have discussed in the last episode and kind of we're alluding to it now about hell, I would say that for many years that my main motive in witnessing and sharing the gospel with people was was so that people would not go to hell. That was my kind of highest motivation.

It's what drove me, because Jesus speaks about hell, and the parable of Lazarus and the rich man, he says, I'm in agony in this flame. It's horrible. But that is no longer my primary goal. reason for evangelizing. It's what you said just a minute ago. It's about the glory of God. Yeah. Yeah.

And I love, brother, in the end of Isaiah 53, we all know so many verses in that chapter, but I love in the end of Isaiah 53 that it's referring to the Messiah and And that it says he will see his offspring and he will be satisfied. Oh, man. Now that now is my number one motive. The glory of God the Father and the satisfaction, the joy, the fulfillment of Jesus Christ.

in seeing people come home, enter the kingdom, and be with Him for eternity. And so now that's my, that's, you know, that's ultimate. My desire that they not go to hell is penultimate.
