Now, tonight, I want to speak just a moment on “Expectation.” Simeon was a man; he was old; he’s way…We’re taught by theologians that he was somewhere in his eighties. But he had a real heart, waiting for God. Sometimes the church has got to a place to just a very few left, believers. But God has always had a remnant of people somewhere who would believe Him. Did you know that? Look at the antediluvian world. There was just a few, Noah, his sons, his daughter-in-laws, and his wife. That was all went into the ark. Is that right? Jesus said, “As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the coming of the Son of man.” “Strait is the gate, narrow is the way, and but few there’ll be that’ll find it.” Oh, Christian, make yourself one of the few; you have an invitation, just move on. “As it was in the days of Noah.” Look at the morality, “Eat, drink, be merry, and giving in marriage, and knew it not, till the day that Noah entered into the ark.” Be one of them that goes in. Pray for me that I’ll be with you. I want to be; I sure want to be; that’s my heart’s desire to go in at that day with you all, be represented.
