Dying Grace
Adrian Rogers
Genesis 47:28-29
I want to speak to you today on this subject, ''Dying Grace.'' Now, God gives us living grace and saving grace and so God who saves us and God who keeps us is the God who will give to us dying grace. And I read here in the word of God, ''And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years, so the whole age of Jacob was an hundred forty and seven years and the time drew nigh that Israel must die.''

We attended the funeral of Abraham because he died, and the funeral of Isaac, he died. And Ishmael, he died, and we stood with Jacob by Rachel's tomb and wept wiith Jacob when Rachel died and was buried there in Bethlehem and he died and he died and now, we come to this verse.
