Want us to just kind of pay attention to the the theme of the verse here says we're foreseen we are also
Encompassed about so so Paul is saying look we're we're in comfort
We're in a battle and we're encompassed about with a great cloud of witnesses
You know this soul sleep doctrine just cracks me up, you know
Oh everybody said well
Why would Paul say that that that we're encompassed with a great cloud of witnesses if they're all lying in the grave
The truth is folks that they're not in the grave
They're they're up in heaven with the Lord Jesus Christ and they're waiting for people to stand up and make a difference
They're waiting for somebody to take the torch and preach the Word of God
So since we're encompassed about that great cloud of witnesses, I know a lot of people have peer pressure
I know a lot of us go out in society and we have peer pressures and we have things that that that get us
Motivated to say certain things around people or to act a certain way
But I think we ought to have peer pressure about the people that are with the Lord in heaven
You know looking down and expecting somebody to stand up and make a difference
I don't want to put the cloud of witnesses to sleep
I want to I want to do something that gets them so fired up
You know
The Bible says that that when somebody gets saved that the whole heavens just start
Shouting with joy we ought to get excited when somebody gets saved
We ought to that ought to excite us and get us motivated to serve the Lord
