00:04:07.240 - 00:04:30.720

house and there I will cause thee to hear my words. When I went down to the potter's house and behold he wrought a work on the wheels and the vessels that he made of the clay was marred in the hand of the potter so he made it again in a vessel and seemed good to the potter to make it. Then the word of the

00:04:30.720 - 00:05:01.920

Lord came to me saying, "O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter?" saith the Lord, "Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel." Now is our time of prayer together. We invite you to come forward now as we unite our hearts in the fellowship of prayer. What a friend

00:05:01.920 - 00:05:24.340

we have in Jesus. All our sins and griefs to bear, what a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer. (woman vocalizing) [MUSIC PLAYING]

00:05:24.340 - 00:06:23.380

[MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] Let us pray. Here we are, dear Father, your children gathered in your house on your day to give praise to

00:06:23.380 - 00:07:14.340

your name. We thank you that you spared us. We thank you that you've led us, that you fed us, and that you've been with us all along life's way. We're so glad to honor you today. We recognize our faults and our failures. We haven't done the things that you have told us to do. We've left much of it undone. We've stumbled. We've faltered

00:07:14.340 - 00:07:59.400

along the way. You know us. You understand us. You are acquainted with all of our ways. So as we bow reverently in your presence, we seek your forgiveness. Pray that you would cover us with your love, embrace us with your understanding, support us with your sympathy, and help us right now to be what you want us to be.

00:07:59.400 - 00:08:37.720

Forgive us of what we've said that we should not have said, and the things that we've done that we should not have done. The sins of omission as well as the sins of commission. Please dear Lord, forgive us for our feverish ways. And then we ask that you would open our eyes, hope in our understanding that we may be motivated by your spirit to attain into that

00:08:37.720 - 00:09:20.000

high mark that you have set for us. We would pray for the nations of our world, the tension, the turmoil that we face. We earnestly pray for peace in our time and we pray that you would make us the instruments of your hand to be workers for peace, that we may have that peace in our hearts and seek to manifest it in our relations with others. Bless our

00:09:20.000 - 00:09:52.080

president and the rulers of the nations. Pray for those who are hostages who are still held as prisoners and for their families. Pray for those who are in bondage, in physical bondage, those who are deprived of the freedom which you have made all men to enjoy. For those who are in mental bondage and spiritual

00:09:52.080 - 00:10:22.360

bondage we pray, O God, pray that you would give strength to those who are witnessing for you on foreign fields as well as those who bear witness here at home. Lord bless us this day. We come, you know us, with problems, with uncertainties, with fears, but we ask that you would help us to lean on you, to know that you will gently

00:10:22.360 - 00:10:37.020

lead us through. We ask this in Jesus name, Amen. (ominous music) (eerie music) (eerie music)

00:19:27.820 - 00:19:42.380

that the 36th annual Woman's Day observance will be Sunday, May 18, 1980. The afternoon program will be 3 p.m. Each member is urged to cooperate with the captains

00:19:42.380 - 00:19:53.700

in the financial effort, and also help to make this day the largest in attendance. Please be present and invite your friends. Also, please read your bulletin for further information

00:19:53.700 - 00:20:06.140

regarding thank yous, messages of sympathy and condolence, and other events occurring this week. We have one visitor's card, and as I call your name, would you stand and remain standing

00:20:06.140 - 00:20:21.220

until words of welcome have been extended. Ernest and Olivia Rambo of 2376 Saunders, Pomona, California, visiting here with Sister Alma Harris. We have other visitors who might not have signed the card.

00:20:21.220 - 00:20:32.300

If so, would you stand at this time? On behalf of the pastor and Ebenezer family, we'd like to say we're indeed glad you chose to come and worship with us today.

00:20:32.300 - 00:20:43.060

And any time you're in the city, feel free to come again. Thank you. - Delighted to have our guests. We'd like for you to remain for a few moments

00:20:43.060 - 00:20:56.580

following the benediction that the pastor and members may have the privilege of meeting and greeting you in a more informal and personal way. We trust that you will be ready for Women's Day.

00:20:56.580 - 00:21:15.440

This is a time when we like to catch up the slack and get ahead with our budget. And we ask that every person will tithe and give as much as possible, even beyond the tithe for those of us who already tithe, that we might catch up with our budget, which we

00:21:15.440 - 00:21:37.920

are fully capable of doing, and let's make our Woman's Day observance this year the biggest ever in the history of our Church. We have the news that Verney Coleman was one of the winners in Fort Worth yesterday in the Speaker's Tournament.

00:21:37.920 - 00:21:59.740

So she will be going to Glorietta to speak in Glorietta. And we've had one to go to Glorietta before, but this is the first time we've had an outright winner before Sam went to Glorietta because he was an alternate and the other person didn't go so the alternate had to go.

00:21:59.740 - 00:22:21.420

But this time we've had an outright winner and the two persons who were selected, one goes to Rich Cress and one goes to Glorietta. And those are the two summer encampments that Southern Baptists have and well they have weeks of study all during the summer and she will be representing us there. So we

00:22:21.420 - 00:22:44.820

rejoice in that and we will be looking forward to that. The Ethiopian refugees you will notice that our church is to sponsor two Ethiopian refugees who will be brought to this country from Italy. The government of Ethiopia was overthrown some years ago. The Emperor of the Lion of Judah, Emperor Haile Selassie

00:22:44.820 - 00:22:58.140

was made prisoner and remained a prisoner until he died. And now that government of this Christian nation is communist. It has gone communist. And many have been forced to flee

00:22:58.140 - 00:23:12.060

the country for their safety. These persons are now in Italy. And even there, they are being sought. And so they are coming to this country for their safety.

00:23:12.060 - 00:23:23.900

So this will be an obligation to our church and we'll be letting you know more about that if there are those who are interested in sponsoring an Ethiopian refugee.

00:23:23.900 - 00:23:38.420

We might even get more because this is a cry. Now we know that every person is important, but the Vietnamese refugees and others often are received with more open arms

00:23:38.420 - 00:23:48.020

than the black brothers and sisters. And if the black brothers and sisters are to be received in large numbers, it's gonna largely depend upon the black community.

00:23:48.020 - 00:23:57.100

Isn't that right? All right, so this is, I really feel we ought to be doing more. And if I get much encouragement in that area, we will be.

00:23:57.100 - 00:24:14.180

But this is what I thought we ought to at least start with. All right. (soft piano music) (gentle piano music)

Hey! Believe me, God made this world [choir singing] [music]

00:32:50.720 - 00:33:09.720

Amen. The subject of the message, parable of the potter and the clay, parable of the potter and the clay.

00:33:09.720 - 00:33:33.360

The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord saying, "Arise and go down to the potter's house and there, I will cause thee to hear my words. Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.

00:33:33.360 - 00:34:10.160

And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter. So he made it again another vessel as seemed good to the potter to make it. The Prophet Jeremiah receives a revelation from the Lord in which he is given specific instructions.

00:34:10.160 - 00:34:51.960

It is a revelation which involves dramatic action. So this has been called a dramatic parable. The message which God has for his people is to be acted out in the life of the Prophet. So the revelation which is to come to him is not one which he receives in his prayer closet,

00:34:51.960 - 00:35:30.040

and often we do have revelations to come to us when we are in our secret closet of prayer. God reveals to us that which he would have us know. The revelation which Jeremiah receives is not one which comes in the sanctuary, and oft times we do receive God's revelation while we are within the sanctuary in that holy place, Isaiah receives a vision of God. He receives from heaven a

00:35:30.040 - 00:36:15.760

revelation concerning what he is to do, his mission in the world. But such is not the case with Jeremiah. This revelation does not come while he is in his prayer closet, neither does it come while he is in the sanctuary, but it comes to speak, so to speak, while he is at a factory, while he is busily engaged in a happening in the work of a world. It is a revelation which

00:36:15.760 - 00:37:10.360

is born out of a concrete situation in human experience. He is at the potter's house, the potter's house. Now the potter is one who is a skilled workman, is one who has sovereignty over the clay. The potter is engaged in the making of vessels and now Jeremiah is at the potter's house where the potter resides with all of the

00:37:10.360 - 00:37:58.500

materials which he needs to carry out his desires, the potter's house. The potter, I said earlier is the sovereign, he's the ruler, he's the one who has control. God is our sovereign, God is our ruler, God has control. In a certain way we may say that the world is the potter's house. This is God's world. God rules his world. He has full control over this world.

00:37:58.500 - 00:38:35.560

The psalmist expresses it quite well when he says that the earth is the Lord's. The world that they that dwell therein for he has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the floods. This is the potter's house. This is God's world. We may see forces that seem to have control that are in conflict with that which is right

00:38:35.560 - 00:39:14.120

and the forces of righteousness. But as Jeremiah makes his journey to the potter's house which is located in the southern section of Jerusalem near the Valley of Hinnom, a place that is situated on the outskirts of the city where it has easy access to the drainage and to the water of the pools that located there for the potter to perform his work. As he makes that journey and as

00:39:14.120 - 00:39:56.400

he looks at the potter's house, he receives this revelation that God is in control of this world. This is my father's world. Oh let me ne'er forget although the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the ruler yet. This is the potter's house. We are all but materials that God has in his world, materials that may be used in a manner

00:39:56.400 - 00:40:24.700

that is pleasing to him. And as Jeremiah observes the potter's house this is the message that comes to him that this is God's world and God has control. Sometimes we forget that. And maybe Jeremiah had sort of forgotten that to some extent he was witnessing for God but he was such a lonely man and he was

00:40:24.700 - 00:40:45.700

standing alone proclaiming the will of God, telling people about their sins, their wickedness, and he had told them that judgment would come and yet there were so many other voices saying don't pay any attention to that old prophet he doesn't know what he's talking about, he's just old, he's foggy, he's obsolete,

00:40:45.700 - 00:41:21.380

he's not in step with things, things gonna be all right, and they kept saying to the people, "Peace, peace," but there really was no peace. And yet Jeremiah, who stands alone against all of the other forces that are clamoring, as he goes to the potter's house, he receives this revelation that God is in control. Those who are in places of leadership, the

00:41:21.380 - 00:41:48.420

priests and the prophets, they're going contrary to God's will and it seems that nothing is happening to them, but remember God is in control. This is the Potter's house and God controls his house and he works continually there. Jeremiah as he visits the Potter's house the second thing he notices is not only

00:41:48.420 - 00:42:28.320

the house but as he notices the potter's wheel, the potter's wheel, the potter's wheel. Oh this wheel was made of two circular discs connected by a vertical rod and the lower disc was larger in order to give momentum as it was activated by the feet. The upper disc was lighter and was used for shaping the

00:42:28.320 - 00:43:14.360

clay into the vessel that the potter wished to make, the potter's wheel. And every one of us, in a sense, is placed upon the potter's wheel. When we are born into this world, we are placed upon the potter's wheel. There is a design for our lives. Sometimes things may seem so confused and so disjointed that we wonder what in the world we're in this world for. But there is a design,

00:43:14.360 - 00:43:51.000

a divine design for every one of us. And so it becomes our task to discover what this divine design is for each one of us and to cooperate with God in the working out of this divine design. Sometimes we are sent where we don't think we need to go and we find ourselves doing things and assigned tasks that we'd rather not have assigned to

00:43:51.000 - 00:44:43.940

us. But somehow all of this is in the mystery of God that many times he is using these means to develop the kind of design that he has in mind for each one of us. The potter's wheel. Then Jeremiah sees there the potter's vessel. He sees that vessel which the potter places on the wheel, this clay that he works with, his fingers, this clay which is responding

00:44:43.940 - 00:45:24.220

to the work of his fingers, so impressionable it is. And as Jeremiah sees this, he thinks of Judah as being that vessel upon the potter's wheel, and God as being that potter working with the nation Judah, the Israelites, God's people. And as he notices the potter working with the clay, there is a foreign substance in

00:45:24.220 - 00:45:56.220

the clay, something that's in the clay that ought not be there. And as he places this clay upon the wheel and begins to work with it, the clay is marred the hand of the potter. Doesn't come out the way that he'd like for it to come out. Doesn't work according to the design that he has in mind because there is a

00:45:56.220 - 00:46:39.200

foreign substance in the clay and the clay is marred in the hands of the potter. and that's the way it is. Some foreign substance is in the clay. All of us is a lump of clay and all of us placed upon the potter's wheel and the potter works there, fashioning that clay with his fingers the way that he would have it be and yet somehow doesn't turn out the way he'd like for it to turn out.

00:46:39.200 - 00:46:58.060

Man placed in the garden, the paradise of Eden, a lump of clay and placed there with a divine design and And God works with man, he orders him and tells him just what he is to do, but somehow

00:46:58.060 - 00:47:30.500

in the process this lump of clay is marred in the hands of the potter. What does the potter do? Well ordinarily we say, well maybe the potter ought to just throw this old lump of clay away and get a new batch of clay and place it on the wheel. But no, the potter doesn't

00:47:30.500 - 00:48:12.620

do that. Instead the potter starts all over again with that same lump of clay. He makes a fresh start and fashions a new vessel. You see the potter has the preference. Potter's working at the wheel and the potter has control. The potter can do whatever he wills. He can destroy the clay, he can throw it away, or he can

00:48:12.620 - 00:48:56.700

begin again and so the Potter makes a fresh start a new beginning. Because you see the Potter has a specific purpose a specific purpose God has a purpose a divine purpose for every one of us and yet there comes a foreign substance that mars that purpose that keeps us from being what God wants us to be so that we

00:48:56.700 - 00:49:32.380

a mod on the wheel of the potter and the potter works with patience and with perseverance the potter remains at the wheel and works on that lump of clay and that's the message that comes to Jeremiah that God is like that, that God hasn't given up on his people, that God is patient and God is kind, God is merciful,

00:49:32.380 - 00:50:05.780

God is forgiving. He said even though the nation Judah is going into captivity that captivity is not the end, captivity does not spell doom for the people Judah while they go into exile it will not be an experience of doom but it will be an experience of discipline. That God has his way of disciplining his people so

00:50:05.780 - 00:50:36.160

that while the clay is marred in the hands of the potter he takes it and begins again as an experience that his people may learn discipline so that in the midst of the captivity, in the midst of the exile, that the people of God may learn discipline. So we are like the Israelites, we only have to turn to God

00:50:36.160 - 00:51:12.800

in penitence, in faith, in obedience, that while we are marred in the hands of the potter, that there is a possibility of a fresh start that the potter may make with each one of us, that we may learn the discipline that comes through faith, yes that discipline that comes first through repentance and obedience to him. And so that's the experience for each one of us to somehow

00:51:12.800 - 00:51:52.360

surrender ourselves to the potter. Weak, marred with sin, but yet somehow surrendered to the potter, I say Lord here I am, take me and use me according to your will. Have thine own way Lord, have thine own way. Thou art the potter, I am the clay. Mold me and make me after thy will, while I am wounded, yielded and still. Have thine own way Lord

00:51:52.360 - 00:52:11.520

Have thine own way. So the Potter is at the wheel today And though we may have that foreign substance that mars us and keeps us from being what he would have us be May our response be Lord have your own way

00:52:11.520 - 00:52:31.780

He gives us a fresh start a new opportunity to To begin again and to be born as new creatures in him. We invite you to come now. As we sing hymn 125, have thine own way Lord,

00:52:31.780 - 00:52:45.760

have thine own way. You be that clay in the hands of the potter, fashioned and made new today. As we sing we invite you to come, to accept him.

00:52:47.200 - 00:52:58.640

become a part of that new people, created by his spirit. Come now, while we sing, have thine own way, Lord.
