<div class="SSN_title">"THOU ART THE MAN"</div>
<div class="SSN_intro">Intro: David, though called "a man after God's own heart" was far from perfect. Sin with Bathsheba. Thought he had covered his guilt.</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">I. THE PARABLE OF NATHAN.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. David's anger kindled.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. How evil our sins look when somebody else is committing them.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. "The man shall surely die."</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. David was pronouncing judgment upon himself.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. "Thou art the man."</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">II. DAVID'S CONFESSION OF SIN (vs. 13...)</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. "He who seeks to cover his sin shall not prosper, but he who confesses his sin shall be forgiven."</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Big difference between David and Saul.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. When Saul was faced with his guilt, offered excuses.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">b. David made confession.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. By the confession the door was opened for the grace of God to operate.</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">III. "THOU ART FORGIVEN, THOU SHALT NOT DIE."</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. God will be more gracious than David.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. Notice how immediately the forgiveness followed the confession of sin.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just..."</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">C. For judgment the baby must die.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. I sometimes feel this is harder.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. How many times when my children were suffering some sickness did I wish I could bare it for them.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">b. We see David's agony before the Lord.</div>
<div class="SSN_level5">1. On another occasion at the death of his rebellious son Absalom, "Oh Absalom..."</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">IV. THIS EXPERIENCE OCCASIONED THE WRITING OF PSALM 51 and PROBABLY 32.
<div class="SSN_level2">A. <a onClick="return mV('Psa',51,'all');">Ps 51</a> gives us the confession of David and prayer for forgiveness.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. <a onClick="return mV('Psa',32,'all');">Ps 32</a>, the happiness of sins forgiven.</div>
