Would the church please stand for the reading of God's word. I
would like to use for my text tonight the book of John's gospel,
chapter twelve, beginning with the thirty-first verse:![[*]](http://www.elilabs.com/graphics/latex2html_icons.gif/foot_motif.gif){kind=icon}
John12:31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
12:33 This he said, signifying what death he should die.
12:34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?
