Here is a Hymn Based on Psalm 36: Thy Mercy and Truth, O Lord
(To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD.) "The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes. For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful. The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good. He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil. Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O LORD, thou preservest man and beast. How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings. They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures. For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light. O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart. Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me. There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise." - Psalm 36

Westminster Shorter Catechism Q & A #31-35
The following is from thewestminsterstandard.org:
Q. 31. What is effectual calling?
A. Effectual calling is the work of God’s Spirit, whereby convincing us of our sin and misery, enlightening our minds in the knowledge of Christ, and renewing our wills, he doth persuade and enable us to embrace Jesus Christ, freely offered to us in the gospel.
Q. 32. What benefits do they that are effectually called partake of in this life?
A. They that are effectually called do in this life partake of justification, adoption, sanctification, and the several benefits which, in this life, do either accompany or flow from them.
Q. 33. What is justification?
A. Justification is an act of God’s free grace, wherein he pardoneth all our sins, and accepteth us as righteous in his sight, only for the righteousness of Christ imputed to us, and received by faith alone.
Q. 34. What is adoption?
A. Adoption is an act of God’s free grace, whereby we are received into the number, and have a right to all the privileges, of the sons of God.
Q. 35. What is sanctification?
A. Sanctification is the work of God’s free grace, whereby we are renewed in the whole man after the image of God, and are enabled more and more to die unto sin, and live unto righteousness.

Recommended sermon: Christians Get Depressed Too, by Dr. David P. Murray
Here are some excerpts from Elizabeth Wurtzel's great book, Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed in America:
- 'I looked at him in shock. Why the hell does everyone think the problem is drugs? 'David, what I wouldn't give to have a drug problem.' I say. 'What I wouldn't give for it to be that simple. If I could check in somewhere and come out the other end okay. I'd be thrilled.'"
- "Even then, I was pretty certain, in my 12 year old mind, that life was one long distraction from the inevitable."
- "Everything's plastic, we're all going to die sooner or later, so what does it matter. That was my motto."
- "...and then one day you realize that your entire life is just awful, not worth living, a horror and a black blot on the white terrain of human existence. One morning you wake up afraid you're going to live."
- "But then I never had to worry about a crash landing because I never even took off."
- "Something inside me was not just depressed but dividing, cracking, splintering, pulling me back and forth between my two parents, and occasionally I wished I could walk through a picture window, and have the sharp, broken shards slash me to ribbons so I would finally look like I felt."
- "They ask me if I've done any drugs in the last 24 hours, and I say no. Then I say I guess I smoked some pot and snorted some coke also, but that was just to make the Ecstasy last longer. I also admit to them I had some beer, maybe a couple of sea breezes in there too. Then the doctor asks if I have a substance abuse problem, and all I can do is laugh."
- "'I won't do that.' he said. 'I already told you it's your mother's responsibility.' 'Oh *** Daddy. I give up. I can't listen to this anymore.' 'What am I supposed to say?' 'Try, Have a good life. Because this is it for me.' Years later, thinking about this conversation, I will remember, as somebody very sagely said during the parricide trials of the Menendez brothers: Anytime your kids kill you, you are at least partly to blame."
- "Depression is all about If you loved me you would."
- "But instead of going to a mental institution, I decided to go to California."
- "...I wish that every psychiatrist I've ever dealt with could know what it's like to be a patient and to feel desperate. I wish they could know what it's like to wake up every morning afraid you're going to live.'
- "So the plan was simple: I would earn enough money to pay my mother back, and they I'd kill myself."
- "On April 8, 1994, as I was completing this book, Kurt Cobain shot himself in the head...Grunge, the musical style that Nirvana did so much to invent and popularize, was described by Newsweek as 'what happens when children of divorce get their hands on guitars.'...Every person who has experienced a severe depression has his own sad, awful tale to tell, his own mess to live through. Sadly, Kurt Cobain will never get that far. Every day I thank God that I did."

Dr. Albert Mohler, Jr.: If God Predestines Everything, Why Do We Do Anything?
The following quote is from a sermon I listened to in the early 1980s. The sermon was on Total Depravity, and the minister was Rev. Paul den Butter:
"It is commonly stated that the central doctrine of the Reformation was the doctrine of justification by faith. Now it is of course true that justification by faith was one of the major issues of the Reformation. But more basic than the justification of the ungodly by faith alone, is the doctrine of man's depravity and consequently the bondage of his will. Martin Luther, one of the great reformers, has acknowledged this fact in his discussion with the great humanist Erasmus. Erasmus was a roman catholic, though he had quite a bit of criticism of the Roman Catholic Church, he never broke ranks with the Roman Catholic Church, and he saw need for reformation, but he never broke ranks with the Roman Catholic Church. He was a defender of much of the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church. Well, this humanist defended the doctrine which is still taught by Roman, namely that man is not totally depraved. But that man still has a freedom in the use of his will. And writing a treatise on the freedom of man's will Erasmus defended that Roman Catholic position of semi-pelagianism Luther replied in his famous book the bondage of the will. and in that book Luther makes the statement, 'you alone have attacked the real thing, that is, the essential issue. You have not worried me with extraneous issues about the papacy, purgatory, indulgences and such like, trifles, rather than issues, in respect of which almost all to date have sought my blood...you, and you alone, have seen the hinge on which the vital turns, and aimed for the vital spot. For that I heartily thank you, for it is more gratifying to me to deal with this issue, and the issue is 'Does man have a free will or not.' And Luther has seen that on this issue everything hinges. Is man totally depraved or not? Is man completely corrupt or has he still some good within. now on this question there have been 3 positions during the history of the church. There was first of all Pelagianism, let me give you a little bit of church history also tonight. There was in the first place Pelagianism, named after a British monk, Pelagius, who preached in Rome from 401 to 409. ad. and Pelagius said every man comes into this world his own Adam. every man is born in a state of innocency. and he is endowed with the full ability to make his own choice and to decide whether he will be virtuous or vicious. So, Pelagius did not believe, not at all, in man's corruption. and in man's depraved nature. man was born in a state of innocency and man could determine whether he would be a virtuous person or a vitious person. Of course Pelagius was honest enough to admit that man was doing sin but he did not sin because the source was within his heart no, no he sinned because he imitated other people that committed sin. There is also a second position called semi-pelagianism that goes not so far as pelagianism. . Pelagius said man is innocent. man is not depraved at all. He can make himself depraved, but he is not. Semi-pelagianism said sure man is depraved, but not completely depraved, man is sick but he is not dead. and if man will only use those faculties which he still has and if he moves in the direction of God then God's grace will come and he will lead him the rest of the way. Man is deformed yes, man is sick sure But man is still able to use his free will, and using his free will he must make the first move and take the first step and God will do the rest. That is Semipelagians which was adopted by the Roman Catholic Church and by Arminianism, and by much of modern evangelism. But then there is a third position which is sometimes called Augustinianism, named after Augustine, a church father, who brought out of the word of God the doctrine of original sin. and of the need of divine grace in the entire complex of Gods saving activities. Augustine showed from the word of god that man is not depraved but that man is totally depraved. And for that reason, no activity of man can save him. or can make the beginning of salvation. but that grace and grace alone can save man. Well these are the three positions, and it is not difficult t determine which positions our father held when they confessed total depravity."

- How to Benefit from a Funeral, by Dr. David P. Murray: The text for this sermon is Ecclesiastes 7:2 &3: "It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart. Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better."
- Lies Told at Funerals, by Rev. Roger Higginson : The text for this sermon is 2 Timothy 4:24 and Ezekiel 33:7 & 8: Here is the words of Ezekiel 33:7 & 8: "So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me. When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand."
- Death at its Own Funeral, by Dr. Ian Brown [Text: I Corinthians 15:51-57: "Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord."

The Deadly Danger of Remodeling Hell: A Response to the Controversy Over the Kirk Cameron Show
The following quotes are from the book The Sinfulness of Sin, by Ralph Venning. Mr. Venning lived in the 1600s. Here are some quotes from this book:
- “As men sow in this seed time they shall reap in that harvest.”
- “There will be no sleeping in hell.”
- “‘But you only have to repent’ says sin, ‘God will forgive you.’ To this we must say that he who has promised forgiveness to those who repent, has not promised repentance to them that sin.”
- “They will be in this like the burning bush, which was burnt with fire, but not consumed. As the church was on earth, so sinners will be in hell.”
- “Most of the past time in the world is lost time, but sinning time, or time spent in sin, is worst than lost, for it must be accounted for.”
- “To pay so dear a price for so vile a commodity. To pay according to the rate of heaven and be put off with hell.”
- “Will you be damned? Can you think calmly of going to hell? Have you no pity on your poor soul?”
- “Holiness is the beauty of earth and of heaven. They who jeer and scoff at holiness and rejoice that they are none of the holy ones, might as well make bone fires, ring the bells, and give thanks that they shall never be saved. For if they are not holy, saved they cannot be.”
- “To pluck out your right eye or cut off your right hand would be a pleasure in comparison to being damned in hell. A burning fever is nothing to burning in hell. Of all the miseries which have been undergone by all men it would be nothing in hell.”
- “If thunder, lightning, and earthquakes make men afraid and shrink together, what will hell do? If the throbbing of a toothache or gnawing of gout puts men to excruciating pain, what will hell do?”
- “When men please themselves with thoughts of their past sins, when they chew the cud and lick their lips after it…then they do the sin over and over again by thinking of it.”
- “Nebuchadnezzar’s furnace was terrible, especially when heated seven times more than usual, yet hell is a worse furnace of fire. Those who do iniquity (who are sin makers by trade), shall be cast into a furnace of fire which shall not devour them, but shall torment them and make them wail and gnash their teeth.”
- “It is said that thoughts are free. They are indeed free with respect to the world who cannot judge us for them. But God can and will.”
- “So to work out his own salvation with fear and trembling. They who live in sin, however, work out their own damnation, and that many times without fear or trembling. But they will have a great store of these when they come to receive their just doom and damnation. Time is a most precious commodity, for eternity depends upon the moment.”
- “There will be degrees of torment in hell, although it will be intolerable for all.”
- “This day your soul may be taken from you, and you may be in hell tomorrow.”
And finally, here is Ralph Venning's account of a conversation between God - our Lord Jesus Christ - and a lost sinner on judgment day:
“It’s as if the sinner should say to the Lord in the Day of Judgment, ‘Have mercy on me.'
'Have mercy upon you?’ says God. ‘No, I will have no mercy upon you. There was a time when you might have had mercy without judgment, but now you shall have judgment without mercy. Depart! Depart!’
If they should then beg and say, ‘Lord, if we must depart, let it be from Thy throne of judgment, but not from Thee.’
‘No,’ says the Lord. ‘Depart from me. Depart form my presence, which is joy. Depart, and go to hell!’
‘Lord,’ they say, ‘seeing we must be gone, bless us before we go, that Thy blessing may be upon us.’
‘Oh no,’ says God, ‘Go with a curse. Depart ye cursed.’
‘Oh Lord, if we must go from Thee, let us not go into the place of torment, but appoint a place, if not of pleasure, then of ease.’
‘No, depart into fire, burning and tormenting flames.’
‘Oh Lord, if into fire, let it be only for a little while. For who can dwell in everlasting burning?’
‘No! Neither you nor the fire shall know an end. Be gone into everlasting fire.’
‘Lord, then let it be long before we go there.’
‘No, depart immediately. The sentence shall be immediately put into execution.’
‘Oh Lord, let us at least have good company who will pity us, though they cannot help us.’
‘No, you shall have none but the tormenting devils. Those whom you obeyed when they were your tempters shall be with you as tormentors.’
What misery sin has brought on man to bring him to hear this dreadful doom.”

Here is a quote from David Rockefeller: "We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years......It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supernational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination practiced in past centuries.” (Memoirs)
The good journalists at the New York Times must be proud to have earned an honorable mention from the late David Rockefeller - for covering up the globalists plans to enslave the rest of us!

Recommended sermon: Christians Get Depressed Too, by Dr. David P. Murray
Here are some excerpts from Elizabeth Wurtzel's great book, Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed in America:
- 'I looked at him in shock. Why the hell does everyone think the problem is drugs? 'David, what I wouldn't give to have a drug problem.' I say. 'What I wouldn't give for it to be that simple. If I could check in somewhere and come out the other end okay. I'd be thrilled.'"
- "Even then, I was pretty certain, in my 12 year old mind, that life was one long distraction from the inevitable."
- "Everything's plastic, we're all going to die sooner or later, so what does it matter. That was my motto."
- "...and then one day you realize that your entire life is just awful, not worth living, a horror and a black blot on the white terrain of human existence. One morning you wake up afraid you're going to live."
- "But then I never had to worry about a crash landing because I never even took off."
- "Something inside me was not just depressed but dividing, cracking, splintering, pulling me back and forth between my two parents, and occasionally I wished I could walk through a picture window, and have the sharp, broken shards slash me to ribbons so I would finally look like I felt."
- "They ask me if I've done any drugs in the last 24 hours, and I say no. Then I say I guess I smoked some pot and snorted some coke also, but that was just to make the Ecstasy last longer. I also admit to them I had some beer, maybe a couple of sea breezes in there too. Then the doctor asks if I have a substance abuse problem, and all I can do is laugh."
- "'I won't do that.' he said. 'I already told you it's your mother's responsibility.' 'Oh *** Daddy. I give up. I can't listen to this anymore.' 'What am I supposed to say?' 'Try, Have a good life. Because this is it for me.' Years later, thinking about this conversation, I will remember, as somebody very sagely said during the parricide trials of the Menendez brothers: Anytime your kids kill you, you are at least partly to blame."
- "Depression is all about If you loved me you would."
- "But instead of going to a mental institution, I decided to go to California."
- "...I wish that every psychiatrist I've ever dealt with could know what it's like to be a patient and to feel desperate. I wish they could know what it's like to wake up every morning afraid you're going to live.'
- "So the plan was simple: I would earn enough money to pay my mother back, and they I'd kill myself."
- "On April 8, 1994, as I was completing this book, Kurt Cobain shot himself in the head...Grunge, the musical style that Nirvana did so much to invent and popularize, was described by Newsweek as 'what happens when children of divorce get their hands on guitars.'...Every person who has experienced a severe depression has his own sad, awful tale to tell, his own mess to live through. Sadly, Kurt Cobain will never get that far. Every day I thank God that I did."
