Alright, so we see here God's mercy is a subject that comes up over and over again in the Old Testament. And it's not just, oh God be merciful to me because I'm David, because I'm one of the chosen ones. He's saying sing it among the nations because his mercy is great under the heavens. For thy mercy, in verse number 10, for means because. So because God's mercy is so great, sing this to the nations. Why? Because there's forgiveness available to the nations also. There's mercy available. The Israelites, not of the corner on the market on God's mercy, but his mercy is available for anybody who would call upon him and be saved. That's why throughout the Old Testament it talks about people hearing about the fame of the Lord and coming from all lands and just flocking to the nation of Israel and worshiping the Lord and seeking God. That happened all throughout the Old Testament. It's predicted that it would happen in the book of Deuteronomy. He says, hey, when people hear about your laws and they hear about your God, they're going to come from all over the place and hear about this. Not to mention the missions that happened in the Old Testament where prophets of God traveled throughout the world preaching and that's recorded in the Old Testament. But you've got to read the whole book and not just, you know, get the Cliffs Notes from somebody who has no understanding. If you read the whole book, you'll find lots of verses like this about the nations and reaching out to other people. Thy truth under the clouds, thy mercy is great under the heavens and thy truth unto the clouds. Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens. Let thy glory be above all the earth. God is to be glorified and praised throughout the entire world. The Bible says that someday the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. Now in many ways that's already been fulfilled in a sense because of the fact that the gospel of Jesus Christ has gone all over the world and you'd be hard pressed to find a group of people in this world that don't know who Jesus is. You travel all over the world. I don't care if you're in Europe. What about in the jungles of Africa? That's where the most missionaries have gone. You know, Africa, Asia, India, Europe, Australia, you know, Jesus Christ is being preached in all these places. There are Bibles and hymns and all kinds of testaments to Christ in all these places. In one sense that's already been fulfilled, that the gospel has been preached in all kingdoms of the world and that the earth is filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. But then ultimately it's going to have a literal fulfillment in the book of, I'm sorry, not in the book of, in the millennium. It's going to have a literal fulfillment where actually the Bible says that nobody's going to have to teach their neighbor or teach their brother saying, know the Lord for all shall know me from the least to the greatest. It's not going to be like you're going out soul winning and saying, Hey everybody, let me tell you about Jesus. People are going to be like, we know, you know, so, uh, soul winning isn't going to be the same in the millennium, is it? You know, that's why you got to do the soul winning now. Now's the time to go soul winning when, when there are people who don't know much about Christ. Sure. Like I said, everybody's heard the name of Christ. And there's a loose fulfillment of that, that the earth is filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord. But just because somebody knows who Jesus is or has heard about Jesus, it doesn't mean they've heard a clear presentation of the Gospel. And it's our job to bring them a clear presentation of the Gospel. And not only do I want to just present a clear presentation of the Gospel, you know what I want to do? I want to grab people and drag them into salvation. I want to compel them to come in. I want to persuade them to be saved. And I'm not, I'm not meaning that literally, all right. But I want to actually pull people out of the fire as the Bible says. And so that's what soul winning is about. Now's the time to do the soul winning because guess what? When the millennium happens, you're not going to be able to say to people, hey, know the Lord. Let me introduce you to Jesus because everybody's going to know who he is at that point. But does everybody know who he is right now? Well, not as much as they should. And they don't necessarily know what is the way of salvation. They might have had a misconception about who Jesus is or a false teaching about who Jesus is. So we want God to be exalted above the heavens. Let his glory be above all the earth.
