[0:00] Hello everyone. My name is Jeanne Sơnúminash nagag on a chapnal of Lefshing. I mean, we're doing this in a knif entry and I really appreciate it. And, I mean, it's life is also like yourself.
[0:14] Because, of this time, we don't have enough power to speak on him now. And he says to us, Verse 23, Acts 17 and 23.
[0:35] But luckily Maezer said he was a preacher that just happened. And he said that he was new in my altar. This whereas he wrote something.
[0:50] I'll read that verse in English.
[1:02] So Paul standing in the midst of the Areopagus in Athens, he said, Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious. For as I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription to the unknown God.
[1:21] What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you. Well, ha xin yadda vi i yentang in Apsthal, agus ha xin yadda vi anna Thessalonica in Hoshach, well, Philippa in Hoshach, agus ga i yentang gu Thessalonica, agus yon urshin go Peria, agus ha xin yadda vi fhecking nói chan yin baan, mara ha Paul cho seswach sa hanapsthal Paul, anna vi charamanochag in Hoshachach, asbite e hacharis, asbite e hacharis, asbite e cunartas a vela, ha Paul doli charamanochag in Hoshachach, agus ma ba xin y kiolach goroa doli vasochag, well, shan manaviyas, shan manaviyag.

[8:16] When he was into place , he had to say a new alternative thing, what got him from anything or, all two things that were in the earlier bubble So again, he was Анний колось He's gotеры inénially fast As for world, he could get more dol быстр But his wife never bought the world When he was trying to say The world are going up What is the world that he had to reflect Jesus, who Jesus was, his death, and his wrath.
[9:13] And this is what particularly got to the Epicureans and the Stoics of the time. They had never heard this message before of someone rising from the dead.
[9:26] For them, it was peculiar. It was interesting. It was fascinating. But it was rather quaint. It was rather unbelievable as far as they were concerned.
[9:38] But this is what lay at the heart of Paul's message. So they said to him, you're giving us new things here. Our ears have never heard these before.
[9:49] We want to hear what you have to say. So, sin an horem ewe a paulig eorri. Agus, gha'wari sin horem so.

[11:51] Gwyfyl o a chulau calatachart. Gynhwyl o a chulau calatachart. A redd chance. And when you get to the country, you get to the country and you get to the country, you get to the country.
[12:28] So their philosophy was that if there is a God, then he is so far removed from the world that he has no interest.
[12:40] He or she or it. They didn't define who God was. And no interest whatsoever, no connection with the world in which we live.
[12:52] So what we have to do as human beings is just to make the most of the world because everything is meaningless. That's what the Epicureans believed, as far as my books tell me.
[13:04] Now the Stoics were slightly different. But the Stoics, they were different from the Xeno. They were different from the Epicurus. And they believed in faith, that this was a pantheistic belief.
[13:27] And they believed in fatalism. Whatever will be, will be. Now, go see on the Xenoch of Coutramoch.
[13:37] Well, chaniela, Coutramoch gyna by, by yolach o'n the Epicureans, o'n the Epicureans, o'n the Stoics. Ach, ach, se'r o'te fae an the 19th for Paul, va, a sin yolach o'n the 9, ansa roe na dunia smynoch, o'n the Dúinia, ba, cimichol o'th.

[17:14] Athens he saw the evidence of all kinds of different gods and idols and images and marks and symbols of a society that was so religious it seemed that everyone was religious of some kind and yet there was this this image to the unknown god and paul knew that even amongst all the devotion that there was in Athens there was an emptiness there was something missing there was something wrong and that's what he wanted to address and that's why he said i want to declare to you who god is who god is who god is what Don't stop perhaps the actress persignal been

[20:14] I was in Edinburgh recently on a bus and I was sitting next to people behind me and that was a conversation for half an hour and these were two people they weren't Christians they were just discussing what God meant and what religion meant and so people are thinking in these terms but what I'd love to say to people is this is what do you mean by God because that's the starting point what do you mean and Paul is saying look there has to be a starting point and God is defined as the creator which really makes a mockery of what you're doing which is creating little images wee tiny little images that somehow represent God he says that's ridiculous how can you do that that doesn't make sense if God is the creator then he cannot be represented by little images that you are trying to create your own God in creating images but I'm saying to you says Paul that God is the opposite to that he in ye arraignisul verse 24

[26:37] Let's say, God is going to judge.
[26:57] He is our judge. Because we are accountable to him. It makes sense that if God created us in his image, then we are accountable to him.
[27:12] Or aansan has anbio in him. We are live and move and have our being. But I think it's true that there are a lot of people, but it's not that Paul's job.
[27:25] It's not that all the time it's been done. It's not that all the time it's been done. But it's not that all the time it's been done.
[27:37] But it's not that all the time it's been done. It's not that all the time it's been done. But then he is going to be able to do it.
[27:48] He is going to be able to do it.
[28:18] Verse 30 What is God saying in all of this?
[28:40] Now that I have worked out the logic of the Christian faith, that begins with the almighty God who created us in his image, that logic has to reach an end point.
[28:56] And here it comes. The end point is this. That God commands us to come to him. He commands everyone, every person, to repent.
[29:13] Because he has appointed a day when he will judge the world in righteousness, in the man he has.
[29:32] And it was always the man, isn't it? The man Jesus Christ, who stood at the very centre of everything that the apostle was, and that stands today at the very centre of the Christian faith.
[29:48] What we believe with all our heart to be the truth. This man, Jesus Christ. Why? Why is it? Dei skadok, dei bachadok, g'n ch'rach, in apstil.
[30:01] Ani ias a creas. Why was it that Paul believed in Jesus? What was it? What was it about Jesus?
[30:12] Well, he tells us at the very end of verse 31. And it's the key, the one key to the Christian faith, which is this.
[30:25] Le ashen y'ho k'al suas on a marav. Jesus rose from the dead. Na meen sa taas achu g'in yu. Na meen sa taas achu.
[30:38] G'n y'all was sa mi akam. Na meen sa faen och question. Ma een, kua a k'ars, kua a k'ar. Dea me dole ch'rachin. Kua me dole j'entang y'ny.
[30:50] Ka val j'e, ka j'e, ka j'e, ka j'e, ka j'e, ka j'e, ka j'e, na meen sa taas achu g'in y'ny. Se so a j'e, j'e, j'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, y'e, if I was starting today and asking questions about where the truth lay, I would be asking this, who has the key to life and death?
[31:24] and the one man that stands out in history is the same man as paul is preaching here in this chapter the one the one key the center point of the christian faith is jesus rising from the dead that's where i would begin that's where i always begin to explain people to people about the christian faith i start here the resurrection from the dead if it didn't happen then we can throw the whole thing away but if jesus really truly historically rose from the dead this is what paul is saying in this chapter if he truly rose from the dead then it means not only that he is the truth that he is god and that he did die for our sin but it means also that i must believe in him this is what the message of the gospel was now the whole that some of them mocked didn't want to know anything else they had heard enough we'll hear this again we'll think about it there was others who believed for whom the message that paul brought them made sense and they accepted this message and they believed in this extraordinary individual jesus christ and i would i would say to anyone this morning that if you have never thought about these issues before to to start with the bible to start with the gospels and to start with jesus christ because he is the one who stands at the heart of the christian faith it's the most extraordinary message it's the most extraordinary person the one the person who out of every other individual in the world shook the world to its very core life so i'm listening as good early remotest but can i tell you oh my test i'll admit i've been in it and the còn is their book part of this it's all because other people in the world were pinpointed up the medricors there and i say i guess you can also explain oxen if i've read the part of this
[34:13] Thank you.
