00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.040
 If you would take the Word of God with me and turn to Matthew chapter 13.

00:00:06.339 --> 00:00:10.599
! While you're turning there, we've been in this series called Stories of the Kingdom,

00:00:10.599 --> 00:00:13.099
 going through some of the parables of Jesus.

00:00:14.019 --> 00:00:20.080
 I figured in a Baptist church, it's probably not a bad idea to talk about what Jesus talked

00:00:20.080 --> 00:00:22.199
 about when He was on this earth, right?

00:00:22.660 --> 00:00:25.600
 We can spend our time looking at a lot of different things,

00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:33.719
 but it's not a bad idea to talk about what Jesus Himself talked about when He was on this earth.

00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:38.820
 So, we're going through this series looking at these parables or illustrative stories.

00:00:39.579 --> 00:00:43.840
 These stories that would make a point, they had a moral, so to speak,

00:00:43.900 --> 00:00:46.320
 and they were all about the kingdom of God.

00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:50.660
 God was revealing to us what the kingdom of God is.

00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:54.040
 So, we're going to look at Matthew chapter 13.

00:00:55.600 --> 00:01:03.840
 And we're going to look down toward the end of the chapter, verses 44 through 46.

00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:05.700
 Matthew chapter 13.

00:01:06.060 --> 00:01:11.099
 And our title this morning is, our theme is Treasures and Pearls.

00:01:11.460 --> 00:01:12.939
 Treasures and Pearls.

00:01:13.420 --> 00:01:14.659
 So, that's what we're talking about.

00:01:14.740 --> 00:01:19.500
 That's what we're diving into with our Stories of the Kingdom series today.

00:01:21.260 --> 00:01:23.099
 Would you mind standing with me?

00:01:23.099 --> 00:01:26.159
 I know we've stood up and down a little bit during this service,

00:01:26.259 --> 00:01:30.119
 but would you mind standing with me in honor of reading God's Word one final time this morning,

00:01:30.199 --> 00:01:30.979
 if you're able to.

00:01:34.479 --> 00:01:36.599
 Matthew 13, beginning in verse 44.

00:01:36.759 --> 00:01:41.939
 The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure that a man discovered hidden in a field.

00:01:42.579 --> 00:01:45.780
 In his excitement, he hid it again and sold everything he owned

00:01:45.780 --> 00:01:47.679
 to get enough money to buy the field.

00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:53.060
 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant on the lookout for choice pearls.

00:01:53.600 --> 00:01:56.140
 When he discovered a pearl of great value,

00:01:56.460 --> 00:01:59.360
 he sold everything he owned and bought it.

00:01:59.740 --> 00:02:00.500
 Let's pray together.

00:02:01.140 --> 00:02:04.520
 God, I pray that you would give us understanding of what you were teaching us

00:02:04.520 --> 00:02:08.420
 so many years ago when you first gave this parable.

00:02:09.460 --> 00:02:12.439
 I pray that we would understand what kingdom value is all about.

00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:18.400
 Give us wisdom and enlightenment from your scriptures by your spirit.

00:02:18.780 --> 00:02:19.719
 It's in Jesus' name we pray.

00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:20.099
 Amen.

00:02:20.300 --> 00:02:20.819
 You may be seated.

00:02:20.939 --> 00:02:21.579
 Thank you for standing.

00:02:24.659 --> 00:02:25.620
 Let's dive in.

00:02:25.699 --> 00:02:27.620
 Number one, we're going to look at the poor man.

00:02:27.859 --> 00:02:29.939
 We see two different people here,

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.699
 two different characters or players in this story.

00:02:32.860 --> 00:02:34.620
 We see a poor man and a rich man.

00:02:35.099 --> 00:02:36.780
 We're going to look at the poor man first.

00:02:36.780 --> 00:02:40.759
 Now, they're not exactly called poor man and rich man,

00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:46.780
 but it's intimated, it's understood by the story what they're talking about.

00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:49.800
 So we can learn what kind of person this is,

00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:51.420
 what kind of individual this is.

00:02:51.659 --> 00:02:52.900
 So let's look at the poor man.

00:02:53.300 --> 00:02:54.680
 And first, it says,

00:02:55.080 --> 00:02:57.979
 treasure was hidden in a ground.

00:02:58.219 --> 00:02:59.639
 Do you know why that would happen?

00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:05.860
 Oftentimes, when people would have to leave their home for whatever reason,

00:03:05.860 --> 00:03:07.600
 maybe they're going on a long journey,

00:03:07.720 --> 00:03:09.080
 maybe there's war in the area,

00:03:09.420 --> 00:03:10.400
 maybe they were arrested,

00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:13.380
 maybe they were in debt and thrown into debtor's prison,

00:03:13.700 --> 00:03:14.480
 whatever it was,

00:03:14.540 --> 00:03:17.360
 they would take their valuables, their treasure,

00:03:18.460 --> 00:03:20.680
 and usually that they would keep hidden in their home,

00:03:20.780 --> 00:03:23.860
 remember, no banks like we have them today back then.

00:03:24.420 --> 00:03:26.760
 So instead, if they were going to leave their home,

00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:29.380
 then they would bury them in the ground,

00:03:30.900 --> 00:03:33.360
 hopefully deep enough that nobody would find them,

00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:36.660
 and then later, when they anticipated their return,

00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:37.840
 coming back to their home,

00:03:37.920 --> 00:03:39.480
 they would dig it up and have their treasure.

00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:44.040
 Oftentimes, they never came back,

00:03:44.820 --> 00:03:47.600
 and the treasure would just be buried there.

00:03:49.180 --> 00:03:51.880
 Sometimes the land would change hands.

00:03:52.660 --> 00:03:55.160
 Sometimes a wealthy man might buy up a field,

00:03:55.460 --> 00:03:58.040
 and he would employ workers to work the field.

00:03:58.860 --> 00:03:59.820
 And what happens?

00:03:59.819 --> 00:04:03.120
 One of those workers, one of those day laborers,

00:04:03.519 --> 00:04:04.759
 one of those poor people,

00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:06.919
 kind of at the bottom of the economic scale,

00:04:07.259 --> 00:04:09.139
 is out there, manual labor,

00:04:09.340 --> 00:04:11.900
 digging in the field, working for somebody else,

00:04:12.139 --> 00:04:14.060
 and he finds a treasure.

00:04:15.060 --> 00:04:16.600
 Now, the rule was, apparently,

00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:20.939
 that if you dug the treasure out

00:04:20.939 --> 00:04:23.459
 and lifted it out,

00:04:23.819 --> 00:04:26.039
 then you would have to take that treasure

00:04:26.039 --> 00:04:28.240
 to whoever owned the field.

00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:29.819
 If it was you,

00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:31.319
 then you get the treasure.

00:04:31.980 --> 00:04:34.379
 But if it was owned by somebody else,

00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:36.759
 that treasure would, by right, belong to them.

00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:40.620
 So, you notice what happens.

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:43.480
 The man does not lift it out of the ground.

00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:45.800
 He finds it,

00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:48.900
 and he hid it again.

00:04:49.379 --> 00:04:50.519
 He covered it back up

00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:53.500
 because he's smart, right?

00:04:53.500 --> 00:04:57.660
 So, the law would require

00:04:57.660 --> 00:04:59.139
 that if he took it out,

00:04:59.339 --> 00:05:01.220
 then he would have to turn it over

00:05:01.220 --> 00:05:02.339
 to whoever owned the land.

00:05:02.939 --> 00:05:05.180
 But instead, he left it in the ground,

00:05:05.699 --> 00:05:06.839
 and he made a plan.

00:05:07.660 --> 00:05:08.819
 And his plan was,

00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:10.939
 I've got to get enough money together

00:05:10.939 --> 00:05:12.819
 to buy this field.

00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:13.699
 So, what did he do?

00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:15.600
 He went all in.

00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:18.379
 He sold everything he had.

00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:21.259
 He went around and probably borrowed money

00:05:21.259 --> 00:05:23.060
 from family or friends.

00:05:23.659 --> 00:05:25.199
 He did everything he could,

00:05:25.300 --> 00:05:26.599
 maybe took on a side job.

00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:28.500
 We don't know how long it took him

00:05:28.500 --> 00:05:30.379
 to buy this field,

00:05:30.699 --> 00:05:32.779
 but that became his one goal.

00:05:32.980 --> 00:05:33.240
 Why?

00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:34.759
 Because he could work

00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:36.759
 for year after year

00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:38.240
 at his wages

00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:41.159
 and never, ever reach

00:05:41.159 --> 00:05:43.199
 the value of this treasure

00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:44.039
 that he had found.

00:05:46.099 --> 00:05:46.579
 So...

00:05:46.579 --> 00:05:47.379
 Okay.

00:05:48.139 --> 00:05:49.959
 Maybe we should stop and pray right now

00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:51.239
 for whatever's going on there.

00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:57.899
 So, he's all in on this treasure.

00:05:58.459 --> 00:06:00.579
 He knows this is the most amount of money,

00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:02.039
 this is the greatest thing of value

00:06:02.039 --> 00:06:03.439
 that he's ever going to find in his life.

00:06:03.919 --> 00:06:04.979
 So, he's got a plan.

00:06:05.620 --> 00:06:06.439
 So, what happened?

00:06:08.179 --> 00:06:09.079
 He came,

00:06:09.799 --> 00:06:11.079
 and he sold everything

00:06:11.079 --> 00:06:12.579
 he had

00:06:12.579 --> 00:06:14.219
 to get enough money

00:06:14.219 --> 00:06:15.219
 to buy the field.

00:06:15.779 --> 00:06:17.519
 So, then he goes to the rich man,

00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:19.060
 he goes to the owner of the field,

00:06:19.060 --> 00:06:19.800
 his employer,

00:06:20.100 --> 00:06:20.540
 and says,

00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:20.879
 listen,

00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:22.579
 I've put all my money together.

00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:24.180
 I've been spending time

00:06:24.180 --> 00:06:25.139
 working this field.

00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:27.060
 I want to buy this field from you.

00:06:27.899 --> 00:06:28.839
 And I can't imagine

00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:29.540
 that he gave him

00:06:29.540 --> 00:06:30.740
 a bargain rate on it.

00:06:32.300 --> 00:06:33.600
 Maybe he felt bad for him.

00:06:33.620 --> 00:06:34.040
 I don't know.

00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:35.019
 We're filling in the blanks

00:06:35.019 --> 00:06:35.620
 on some of this.

00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:36.340
 It doesn't get us

00:06:36.340 --> 00:06:37.579
 into the weeds on this.

00:06:38.139 --> 00:06:38.540
 But,

00:06:38.860 --> 00:06:39.899
 the point is,

00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:41.939
 he valued so greatly

00:06:41.939 --> 00:06:44.120
 that he abandoned

00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:45.379
 everything else

00:06:45.379 --> 00:06:47.279
 and went all in

00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:48.180
 on this treasure.

00:06:48.540 --> 00:06:48.800
 Why?

00:06:49.019 --> 00:06:50.120
 Because he found something

00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:51.579
 of so much greater value

00:06:51.579 --> 00:06:53.040
 than anything else

00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:53.980
 in his life.

00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:55.319
 And he knew that.

00:06:56.480 --> 00:06:56.699
 Said,

00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:57.939
 this is a sure thing.

00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:00.000
 Stock market might go up,

00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:01.159
 stock market might go down,

00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:02.019
 but this treasure

00:07:02.019 --> 00:07:03.659
 has inherent value.

00:07:04.219 --> 00:07:06.180
 And if I can own this field,

00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:07.240
 then this treasure

00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:08.560
 will belong to me.

00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:11.319
 Would you go to Romans

00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:12.620
 chapter 10 and verse 20?

00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:15.699
 Romans chapter 10 and verse 20.

00:07:17.339 --> 00:07:18.339
 This poor man

00:07:18.339 --> 00:07:19.399
 found something

00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:20.899
 of such great value,

00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:22.480
 he happily gave up

00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:23.579
 everything he had

00:07:23.579 --> 00:07:25.100
 to pay the price

00:07:25.100 --> 00:07:25.800
 of the field.

00:07:26.459 --> 00:07:28.019
 He made no excuses,

00:07:28.779 --> 00:07:30.120
 but went all in

00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:31.879
 on the treasure he found.

00:07:32.740 --> 00:07:34.019
 You ever been around somebody

00:07:34.019 --> 00:07:35.340
 who just seemed like

00:07:35.340 --> 00:07:36.639
 they were always stuck

00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:37.620
 in the same rut

00:07:37.620 --> 00:07:39.019
 because every time

00:07:39.019 --> 00:07:40.519
 they had an opportunity

00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:42.340
 to get out of that situation

00:07:42.340 --> 00:07:43.959
 and improve things,

00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:44.680
 they always had

00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:45.680
 all kinds of excuses

00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:47.480
 for why they couldn't do it.

00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:49.160
 Why they couldn't really

00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:50.220
 change their circumstances.

00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:51.540
 Why they couldn't really

00:07:51.540 --> 00:07:54.139
 improve their financial situation

00:07:54.139 --> 00:07:55.459
 or whatever it might be.

00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:56.420
 There was always

00:07:56.420 --> 00:07:57.600
 all kinds of excuses.

00:07:57.860 --> 00:07:58.079
 Well,

00:07:58.899 --> 00:08:00.079
 life just hadn't been

00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:00.759
 kind to me.

00:08:01.840 --> 00:08:02.040
 Well,

00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:02.620
 that's just not

00:08:02.620 --> 00:08:03.459
 my lot in life.

00:08:03.540 --> 00:08:04.759
 I'm always going to be poor.

00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:05.899
 I'm always going to be

00:08:05.899 --> 00:08:07.240
 in bad health,

00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:08.199
 whatever it is.

00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:11.639
 Let's look at

00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:12.460
 Romans chapter 10

00:08:12.460 --> 00:08:13.019
 and verse 20.

00:08:13.139 --> 00:08:13.900
 Later Isaiah,

00:08:14.259 --> 00:08:15.019
 the prophet Isaiah

00:08:15.019 --> 00:08:16.280
 spoke boldly for God.

00:08:16.740 --> 00:08:17.379
 And there's a quote

00:08:17.379 --> 00:08:18.720
 back to the book of Isaiah.

00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:19.040
 It says,

00:08:19.180 --> 00:08:20.519
 I was found by people

00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:22.579
 who were not looking for me.

00:08:22.819 --> 00:08:24.019
 I showed myself

00:08:24.019 --> 00:08:24.800
 to those

00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:25.879
 who were not

00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:27.439
 asking for me.

00:08:28.259 --> 00:08:29.800
 Let's go to Matthew chapter 10

00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:30.579
 and verse 20.

00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:32.120
 Do you understand

00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:33.720
 this guy did not go out

00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:34.560
 thinking he was going

00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:35.319
 to find a treasure?

00:08:36.439 --> 00:08:37.579
 But he found

00:08:37.579 --> 00:08:38.500
 a great treasure.

00:08:40.199 --> 00:08:41.439
 He did not go out

00:08:41.439 --> 00:08:41.979
 that day

00:08:41.979 --> 00:08:43.439
 thinking that he would

00:08:43.439 --> 00:08:45.119
 absolutely turn

00:08:45.119 --> 00:08:46.059
 his life around

00:08:46.059 --> 00:08:47.059
 and yet he stumbled

00:08:47.059 --> 00:08:47.959
 upon something

00:08:47.959 --> 00:08:49.099
 that had the power

00:08:49.099 --> 00:08:50.839
 to do just that.

00:08:51.079 --> 00:08:52.039
 And he saw

00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:52.859
 the value in it.

00:08:53.079 --> 00:08:53.959
 He recognized

00:08:53.959 --> 00:08:54.719
 the value in it.

00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:56.939
 We're setting the stage here.

00:08:57.019 --> 00:08:57.500
 We're going to get

00:08:57.500 --> 00:08:58.259
 to the main point

00:08:58.259 --> 00:08:58.839
 in just a minute.

00:08:58.959 --> 00:08:59.879
 So stick with me.

00:09:01.019 --> 00:09:02.639
 Understand the value.

00:09:02.639 --> 00:09:04.439
 Matthew chapter 10

00:09:04.439 --> 00:09:05.080
 and verse 39.

00:09:05.299 --> 00:09:06.720
 If you cling to your life,

00:09:07.220 --> 00:09:08.639
 you will what?

00:09:09.379 --> 00:09:10.120
 Lose it.

00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:12.159
 But if you give up

00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:13.199
 your life for me,

00:09:13.340 --> 00:09:14.240
 you will what?

00:09:14.899 --> 00:09:15.740
 Find it.

00:09:17.019 --> 00:09:17.960
 There's the key.

00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:20.159
 That's what the poor man

00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:20.600
 understood.

00:09:21.259 --> 00:09:22.319
 He could cling

00:09:22.319 --> 00:09:24.080
 to his way of life,

00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:26.179
 but what would that get him?

00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:29.539
 He would just keep losing.

00:09:29.539 --> 00:09:32.480
 He could cling

00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:33.939
 to everything he knew.

00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:35.939
 He could cling

00:09:35.939 --> 00:09:37.000
 to what was comfortable.

00:09:38.159 --> 00:09:38.819
 He could cling

00:09:38.819 --> 00:09:40.139
 to not maybe

00:09:40.139 --> 00:09:40.899
 what was easy

00:09:40.899 --> 00:09:41.539
 because he probably

00:09:41.539 --> 00:09:42.639
 had a hard life,

00:09:43.339 --> 00:09:45.459
 but maybe it felt safer

00:09:45.459 --> 00:09:46.719
 than the unknown.

00:09:48.139 --> 00:09:49.719
 Maybe it was less scary

00:09:49.719 --> 00:09:51.259
 than venturing out

00:09:51.259 --> 00:09:54.179
 with newfound riches.

00:09:54.179 --> 00:09:57.120
 But instead,

00:09:57.239 --> 00:09:57.620
 he said,

00:09:57.759 --> 00:09:57.939
 no.

00:09:58.659 --> 00:10:00.159
 I have found something

00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:02.099
 of such greater value,

00:10:02.439 --> 00:10:03.739
 I'll never find

00:10:03.739 --> 00:10:04.699
 anything better

00:10:04.699 --> 00:10:05.479
 than this.

00:10:06.479 --> 00:10:07.139
 You hear that?

00:10:07.599 --> 00:10:09.120
 I'll never find

00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:10.419
 anything better

00:10:10.419 --> 00:10:11.639
 than this.

00:10:13.500 --> 00:10:13.819
 Now,

00:10:13.859 --> 00:10:14.239
 do you see

00:10:14.239 --> 00:10:14.759
 where we're going

00:10:14.759 --> 00:10:15.239
 with this?

00:10:16.219 --> 00:10:18.079
 When you find

00:10:18.079 --> 00:10:18.740
 Jesus,

00:10:19.659 --> 00:10:21.240
 you'll never find

00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:22.419
 anything better

00:10:22.419 --> 00:10:23.359
 than this.

00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:26.460
 when you find hope,

00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:28.419
 when you find life,

00:10:29.100 --> 00:10:30.460
 when you find joy,

00:10:30.779 --> 00:10:31.960
 when you find peace,

00:10:32.779 --> 00:10:34.460
 when you find contentment,

00:10:35.340 --> 00:10:37.360
 when you find compassion,

00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:39.340
 when you find kindness,

00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:41.080
 when you find all

00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:42.100
 that is wrapped up

00:10:42.100 --> 00:10:43.360
 in the person of Jesus,

00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:44.899
 you'll never find

00:10:44.899 --> 00:10:46.159
 anything better than that.

00:10:46.419 --> 00:10:48.100
 And Jesus is calling you

00:10:48.100 --> 00:10:50.019
 to give up your life

00:10:50.019 --> 00:10:51.060
 for him.

00:10:51.059 --> 00:10:54.279
 because in doing so,

00:10:54.719 --> 00:10:56.319
 he will give you

00:10:56.319 --> 00:10:58.079
 so much better

00:10:58.079 --> 00:10:59.519
 than you could ever

00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:01.019
 find on your own.

00:11:02.239 --> 00:11:03.519
 You can cling

00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:06.319
 to the scraps

00:11:06.319 --> 00:11:07.219
 that you have.

00:11:07.779 --> 00:11:08.319
 Last Sunday,

00:11:08.379 --> 00:11:08.919
 we talked about

00:11:08.919 --> 00:11:09.639
 the marriage feast

00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:10.119
 and the king

00:11:10.119 --> 00:11:10.879
 extended out

00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:11.519
 the invitation

00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:12.759
 to all of those

00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:13.399
 in the streets,

00:11:13.479 --> 00:11:15.239
 not his usual guest list,

00:11:15.479 --> 00:11:15.959
 but he said,

00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:16.419
 anybody,

00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:18.139
 come eat at my table,

00:11:18.459 --> 00:11:19.439
 come feast with me,

00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:20.340
 because I know you're not

00:11:20.340 --> 00:11:21.220
 eating like this at home.

00:11:21.500 --> 00:11:23.020
 I eat like this every day.

00:11:23.160 --> 00:11:23.980
 I'm the king,

00:11:24.100 --> 00:11:25.220
 but I'm welcoming you

00:11:25.220 --> 00:11:26.280
 into my table now.

00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:27.240
 I want to share

00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:28.320
 my wealth with you.

00:11:28.560 --> 00:11:29.640
 And I'm telling you, folks,

00:11:29.760 --> 00:11:31.340
 you can pursue everything

00:11:31.340 --> 00:11:32.540
 that everybody around you

00:11:32.540 --> 00:11:33.080
 is pursuing,

00:11:33.340 --> 00:11:34.320
 but it's not

00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:35.300
 the king's table.

00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:37.520
 It's not the treasure

00:11:37.520 --> 00:11:39.140
 that he is offering

00:11:39.140 --> 00:11:40.880
 for you to find.

00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:42.460
 If you find Jesus,

00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:44.040
 you've found everything.

00:11:44.039 --> 00:11:47.219
 So, that's principle

00:11:47.219 --> 00:11:47.759
 number one.

00:11:48.539 --> 00:11:49.159
 The poor man,

00:11:49.759 --> 00:11:50.899
 he gave up everything

00:11:50.899 --> 00:11:52.439
 in his life

00:11:52.439 --> 00:11:55.199
 for the treasure

00:11:55.199 --> 00:11:56.539
 because he knew

00:11:56.539 --> 00:11:57.539
 it was of greater value

00:11:57.539 --> 00:11:59.179
 than anything else.

00:11:59.659 --> 00:12:00.439
 He didn't cling

00:12:00.439 --> 00:12:01.259
 to his life.

00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:02.480
 But you know what happens?

00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:03.919
 Sometimes we want

00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:04.620
 to cling to it.

00:12:05.740 --> 00:12:07.319
 Sometimes there are habits,

00:12:08.379 --> 00:12:09.419
 there are distractions,

00:12:10.379 --> 00:12:11.980
 there are passions,

00:12:12.719 --> 00:12:13.899
 there are interests,

00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:16.279
 that we have in our lives

00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:19.399
 that do not mesh

00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:20.879
 with Jesus.

00:12:22.500 --> 00:12:24.399
 We might try to force them

00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:25.939
 to work.

00:12:26.299 --> 00:12:27.259
 We might try to play

00:12:27.259 --> 00:12:28.019
 both sides.

00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:29.500
 Oh yeah, I've got Jesus

00:12:29.500 --> 00:12:30.199
 on Sundays

00:12:30.199 --> 00:12:31.480
 and I've got everything else

00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:32.339
 that I'm interested in

00:12:32.339 --> 00:12:33.139
 the rest of the week.

00:12:35.139 --> 00:12:36.779
 That's clinging to your life.

00:12:37.939 --> 00:12:39.219
 It's not giving it up

00:12:39.219 --> 00:12:39.799
 for the treasure.

00:12:41.500 --> 00:12:43.240
 So you're abandoning

00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:44.740
 this treasure

00:12:44.740 --> 00:12:45.879
 of greater value

00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:46.919
 than any of that

00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:47.980
 could ever be

00:12:47.980 --> 00:12:49.299
 and you're clinging

00:12:49.299 --> 00:12:50.060
 to something

00:12:50.060 --> 00:12:51.980
 that will ultimately

00:12:51.980 --> 00:12:52.639
 cause you

00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:53.899
 to lose your life,

00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:56.000
 to waste your life.

00:12:56.680 --> 00:12:57.840
 And graduates in the room,

00:12:57.940 --> 00:12:59.080
 I don't want to see you do that.

00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:01.220
 Don't cling

00:13:01.220 --> 00:13:03.700
 to what will never

00:13:03.700 --> 00:13:04.279
 get you

00:13:04.279 --> 00:13:05.680
 where God wants you to go.

00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:08.459
 Hold things loosely.

00:13:09.459 --> 00:13:10.759
 Hold cars loosely.

00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:12.500
 Hold even jobs.

00:13:12.679 --> 00:13:13.459
 Dedicate yourself.

00:13:13.620 --> 00:13:15.399
 Do whatever your hand

00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:16.099
 finds to do.

00:13:16.179 --> 00:13:17.359
 Do it with all your strength,

00:13:17.439 --> 00:13:18.059
 all your might.

00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:19.419
 Do it to the glory of God.

00:13:19.419 --> 00:13:20.799
 But don't hold on

00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:22.039
 to the things of this earth

00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:22.739
 so tightly.

00:13:23.259 --> 00:13:24.059
 Hold them loosely

00:13:24.059 --> 00:13:25.459
 because those things

00:13:25.459 --> 00:13:26.219
 come and go

00:13:26.219 --> 00:13:27.479
 but God's words

00:13:27.479 --> 00:13:28.299
 remain forever.

00:13:28.739 --> 00:13:30.579
 The things that God gives you,

00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:32.339
 that will never fade away.

00:13:32.340 --> 00:13:33.740
 that is a treasure

00:13:33.740 --> 00:13:35.660
 that will last eternity.

00:13:37.680 --> 00:13:38.899
 The problem is

00:13:38.899 --> 00:13:40.519
 it will cost you something.

00:13:41.220 --> 00:13:43.160
 It will cause you

00:13:43.160 --> 00:13:44.280
 to give something up.

00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:45.580
 Folks,

00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:47.680
 we love to see people

00:13:47.680 --> 00:13:48.200
 get baptized.

00:13:48.420 --> 00:13:49.139
 We saw pictures

00:13:49.139 --> 00:13:50.600
 even in the graduate

00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:52.220
 photo,

00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:53.500
 whatever you call those,

00:13:53.560 --> 00:13:54.060
 slideshows,

00:13:54.139 --> 00:13:54.519
 there you go,

00:13:54.899 --> 00:13:56.120
 of people getting baptized,

00:13:56.259 --> 00:13:57.160
 graduates getting baptized.

00:13:57.420 --> 00:13:59.180
 What a powerful testimony

00:13:59.180 --> 00:14:00.480
 of life change.

00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:01.940
 But can I promise you,

00:14:01.940 --> 00:14:02.460
 and some of those

00:14:02.460 --> 00:14:03.380
 graduates know that.

00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:04.360
 Some of it was

00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:05.440
 in their testimonies

00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:07.500
 that when you choose

00:14:07.500 --> 00:14:08.480
 to follow Jesus,

00:14:08.660 --> 00:14:09.800
 he's going to ask you

00:14:09.800 --> 00:14:10.740
 to give something up.

00:14:12.140 --> 00:14:13.200
 And it might not be

00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:14.420
 immediately what you think.

00:14:16.060 --> 00:14:17.540
 It will cost you something.

00:14:17.740 --> 00:14:18.140
 Actually,

00:14:18.580 --> 00:14:19.840
 it will cost you

00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:20.860
 everything.

00:14:23.260 --> 00:14:24.340
 If you're truly

00:14:24.340 --> 00:14:25.860
 going to follow Jesus,

00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:27.520
 you're going to have

00:14:27.520 --> 00:14:29.140
 to give up everything.

00:14:29.760 --> 00:14:30.860
 He might give some

00:14:30.860 --> 00:14:31.700
 of it back to you.

00:14:31.940 --> 00:14:34.080
 Or he'll give you

00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:34.780
 something better.

00:14:35.460 --> 00:14:36.560
 You don't understand

00:14:36.560 --> 00:14:37.340
 that at first.

00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:38.540
 I don't understand

00:14:38.540 --> 00:14:39.280
 that at first.

00:14:39.540 --> 00:14:40.600
 And I get scared

00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:42.040
 when I lose something

00:14:42.040 --> 00:14:43.200
 for the sake of Jesus.

00:14:44.200 --> 00:14:45.320
 And I get nervous.

00:14:46.620 --> 00:14:46.840
 Man,

00:14:46.900 --> 00:14:47.480
 my bank account

00:14:47.480 --> 00:14:47.920
 doesn't look

00:14:47.920 --> 00:14:48.760
 how it used to look.

00:14:49.460 --> 00:14:50.380
 My retirement,

00:14:50.500 --> 00:14:51.400
 what am I going to do now?

00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:53.560
 Those relationships

00:14:53.560 --> 00:14:54.840
 that are causing me

00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:55.900
 heartbreak right now,

00:14:56.860 --> 00:14:58.120
 the emptiness sometimes.

00:14:58.120 --> 00:14:59.860
 and then I find,

00:15:00.700 --> 00:15:00.840
 boy,

00:15:00.899 --> 00:15:01.840
 God fills that emptiness

00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:02.659
 better than anything

00:15:02.659 --> 00:15:03.759
 ever it has before.

00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:06.320
 These new relationships

00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:06.980
 that I have

00:15:06.980 --> 00:15:07.919
 with my church family,

00:15:08.139 --> 00:15:08.860
 with the people

00:15:08.860 --> 00:15:09.860
 in my life

00:15:09.860 --> 00:15:10.399
 that I know

00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:11.179
 follow Jesus

00:15:11.179 --> 00:15:12.940
 and I'm strengthening myself

00:15:12.940 --> 00:15:14.100
 and now I'm pouring out

00:15:14.100 --> 00:15:14.539
 to others

00:15:14.539 --> 00:15:15.460
 with new relationships

00:15:15.460 --> 00:15:17.200
 who need to find Jesus

00:15:17.200 --> 00:15:18.320
 and God's using me

00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:19.259
 in a way to do that.

00:15:19.340 --> 00:15:19.860
 And all of a sudden,

00:15:19.940 --> 00:15:20.600
 your life becomes

00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:21.720
 so much more fulfilling

00:15:21.720 --> 00:15:23.539
 than it ever was.

00:15:23.539 --> 00:15:25.799
 but you'll never taste that

00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:27.339
 if you hold on

00:15:27.339 --> 00:15:28.480
 to everything

00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:29.919
 you have now.

00:15:31.719 --> 00:15:32.779
 You know the story

00:15:32.779 --> 00:15:34.219
 of the little kid

00:15:34.219 --> 00:15:35.819
 who reached his hand

00:15:35.819 --> 00:15:36.480
 in the cookie jar

00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:38.459
 and he grabbed

00:15:38.459 --> 00:15:39.099
 as many cookies

00:15:39.099 --> 00:15:40.039
 as he possibly could

00:15:40.039 --> 00:15:40.639
 and he couldn't get

00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:41.379
 his hand back out

00:15:41.379 --> 00:15:42.399
 because he was holding on

00:15:42.399 --> 00:15:43.240
 to all of the cookies

00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:43.759
 and it's like,

00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:44.219
 look man,

00:15:44.539 --> 00:15:45.399
 let go, right?

00:15:45.860 --> 00:15:46.480
 Let go

00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:47.519
 and you can enjoy

00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:49.319
 this treasure

00:15:49.319 --> 00:15:50.159
 you found

00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:51.379
 but if you hold on

00:15:51.379 --> 00:15:52.899
 to what you think

00:15:52.899 --> 00:15:53.539
 you want

00:15:53.539 --> 00:15:56.679
 you'll never experience

00:15:56.679 --> 00:15:58.679
 what God wants for you

00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:00.299
 and it's so much better.

00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:01.740
 It's so much purer.

00:16:02.200 --> 00:16:03.360
 It's so much more fulfilling.

00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:05.679
 So that's the rich man.

00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:07.259
 Now,

00:16:07.580 --> 00:16:08.980
 let's go to Matthew chapter 19.

00:16:11.259 --> 00:16:12.559
 Matthew chapter 19,

00:16:13.299 --> 00:16:14.279
 few verses there

00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:16.980
 beginning in verse 16.

00:16:21.379 --> 00:16:23.080
 While you're turning,

00:16:25.200 --> 00:16:26.980
 I want to remind you

00:16:26.980 --> 00:16:27.899
 that those who were

00:16:27.899 --> 00:16:29.120
 looking for God,

00:16:29.580 --> 00:16:30.039
 I'm sorry,

00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:31.120
 those who were never

00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:32.600
 looking for God,

00:16:34.059 --> 00:16:36.220
 God was looking for them.

00:16:36.840 --> 00:16:37.799
 Isn't it a blessing

00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:38.559
 to know

00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:40.080
 that when I wasn't

00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:41.059
 seeking Jesus,

00:16:41.700 --> 00:16:43.200
 Jesus sought me out.

00:16:43.939 --> 00:16:45.480
 Jesus came to find me.

00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:46.559
 That's what we read

00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:47.740
 in Romans chapter 10.

00:16:48.340 --> 00:16:49.879
 Some of us stumble

00:16:49.879 --> 00:16:51.439
 into the kingdom of God.

00:16:51.879 --> 00:16:52.419
 Isn't that interesting?

00:16:53.460 --> 00:16:54.279
 Some of us, man,

00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:55.059
 we seek it out.

00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:56.620
 Some of us were raised

00:16:56.620 --> 00:16:57.500
 seeking God.

00:16:57.620 --> 00:16:58.399
 Some of us weren't.

00:16:59.059 --> 00:17:00.019
 Some of us stumbled

00:17:00.019 --> 00:17:00.480
 backwards

00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:01.679
 into the kingdom of God.

00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:04.700
 God stopped wicked Saul

00:17:04.700 --> 00:17:05.680
 in his tracks

00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:06.940
 and turned him

00:17:06.940 --> 00:17:08.819
 into his servant Paul

00:17:08.819 --> 00:17:10.880
 in the New Testament

00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:12.240
 on the Damascus road.

00:17:12.339 --> 00:17:14.000
 He was working against God

00:17:14.000 --> 00:17:16.079
 and God arrested him,

00:17:16.619 --> 00:17:17.460
 stopped him dead

00:17:17.460 --> 00:17:18.180
 in his tracks

00:17:18.180 --> 00:17:19.140
 on his way

00:17:19.140 --> 00:17:20.060
 to do more harm

00:17:20.060 --> 00:17:20.880
 to God's people

00:17:20.880 --> 00:17:22.320
 and then he turned him

00:17:22.320 --> 00:17:23.540
 into one of his

00:17:23.540 --> 00:17:24.680
 most powerful servants

00:17:24.680 --> 00:17:26.240
 we ever have record of.

00:17:26.800 --> 00:17:27.860
 Now look at Matthew

00:17:27.860 --> 00:17:29.120
 chapter 19,

00:17:29.580 --> 00:17:30.259
 verse 16.

00:17:31.080 --> 00:17:32.000
 Someone came to Jesus

00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:32.800
 with this question.

00:17:33.340 --> 00:17:33.580
 Teacher,

00:17:34.860 --> 00:17:36.040
 what good deed

00:17:36.040 --> 00:17:36.840
 must I do

00:17:36.840 --> 00:17:37.960
 to have eternal life?

00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:39.340
 Let me ask you

00:17:39.340 --> 00:17:39.820
 as that.

00:17:40.020 --> 00:17:40.280
 Church,

00:17:40.360 --> 00:17:40.800
 this morning,

00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:42.040
 what good deed

00:17:42.040 --> 00:17:42.780
 must I do

00:17:42.780 --> 00:17:43.820
 to have eternal life?

00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:45.720
 Nothing.

00:17:46.320 --> 00:17:46.600
 Nothing.

00:17:46.599 --> 00:17:48.419
 There's no good deed

00:17:48.419 --> 00:17:49.279
 that I can do.

00:17:50.639 --> 00:17:51.079
 Why?

00:17:51.959 --> 00:17:53.359
 Because nothing I can do

00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:55.019
 can give me eternal life.

00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:57.119
 God holds the keys to that.

00:17:57.639 --> 00:17:59.039
 He has to give that to me.

00:17:59.740 --> 00:18:01.119
 I have to humble myself

00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:02.980
 and place my faith in him

00:18:02.980 --> 00:18:04.740
 and then he gives me

00:18:04.740 --> 00:18:05.480
 eternal life.

00:18:05.579 --> 00:18:05.799
 So,

00:18:06.039 --> 00:18:07.299
 he's off from the beginning

00:18:07.299 --> 00:18:09.519
 but Jesus is going to teach him

00:18:09.519 --> 00:18:09.819
 something.

00:18:09.899 --> 00:18:10.519
 Verse 17,

00:18:10.519 --> 00:18:11.920
 why ask me

00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:13.039
 about what is good?

00:18:13.139 --> 00:18:13.819
 Jesus replied,

00:18:14.220 --> 00:18:15.379
 there's only one

00:18:15.379 --> 00:18:16.139
 who is good

00:18:16.139 --> 00:18:18.579
 but to answer your question,

00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:20.319
 if you want to receive

00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:21.279
 eternal life,

00:18:21.819 --> 00:18:22.720
 keep the commandments.

00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:24.779
 That's the law.

00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:26.079
 That's the Old Testament law.

00:18:26.180 --> 00:18:26.960
 The Ten Commandments

00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:27.660
 is the big one.

00:18:27.940 --> 00:18:28.960
 There are many other commandments

00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:29.579
 given throughout

00:18:29.579 --> 00:18:30.279
 the Old Testament.

00:18:30.859 --> 00:18:31.759
 Verse 18,

00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:32.660
 which ones,

00:18:32.740 --> 00:18:33.319
 the man asked.

00:18:33.420 --> 00:18:34.119
 Jesus replied,

00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:35.420
 you must not murder,

00:18:35.660 --> 00:18:36.839
 you must not commit adultery,

00:18:36.940 --> 00:18:37.859
 you must not steal,

00:18:38.059 --> 00:18:39.680
 you must not testify falsely,

00:18:39.680 --> 00:18:40.880
 honor your father

00:18:40.880 --> 00:18:41.400
 and your mother,

00:18:41.560 --> 00:18:42.180
 love your neighbor

00:18:42.180 --> 00:18:42.880
 as yourself.

00:18:43.019 --> 00:18:43.680
 He just gave him

00:18:43.680 --> 00:18:44.200
 the highlights,

00:18:44.340 --> 00:18:44.600
 right?

00:18:46.039 --> 00:18:47.060
 And the man says,

00:18:47.120 --> 00:18:48.360
 I've obeyed all these commandments,

00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:49.720
 the young man replied.

00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:51.220
 What else must I do?

00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:53.340
 Jesus said,

00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:55.180
 if you want to be perfect,

00:18:55.600 --> 00:18:56.759
 go and sell

00:18:56.759 --> 00:18:58.100
 all your possessions

00:18:58.100 --> 00:18:59.500
 and give the money

00:18:59.500 --> 00:19:00.259
 to the poor

00:19:00.259 --> 00:19:02.080
 and then you'll have

00:19:02.080 --> 00:19:02.840
 treasure in heaven

00:19:02.840 --> 00:19:04.940
 and then come

00:19:04.940 --> 00:19:06.779
 and follow me.

00:19:08.580 --> 00:19:08.840
 You know,

00:19:08.839 --> 00:19:09.699
 an interesting thing.

00:19:09.980 --> 00:19:10.559
 I think Jesus

00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:11.639
 is referencing here

00:19:11.639 --> 00:19:13.539
 the great commandment

00:19:13.539 --> 00:19:14.279
 that he gave.

00:19:15.419 --> 00:19:15.899
 He said,

00:19:16.159 --> 00:19:17.319
 there's a new commandment

00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:18.179
 that I give you

00:19:18.179 --> 00:19:19.779
 to love one another

00:19:19.779 --> 00:19:21.039
 as I have loved you

00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:23.000
 and on this one commandment,

00:19:23.099 --> 00:19:24.399
 all those Old Testament

00:19:24.399 --> 00:19:24.859
 commandments

00:19:24.859 --> 00:19:26.399
 now hang off of this one.

00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:27.779
 So if you're not

00:19:27.779 --> 00:19:29.299
 obeying this commandment,

00:19:29.679 --> 00:19:30.559
 it's like you've

00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:31.599
 disobeyed all of them.

00:19:32.879 --> 00:19:33.539
 So I think he's

00:19:33.539 --> 00:19:34.480
 communicating that

00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:35.079
 to this guy.

00:19:35.500 --> 00:19:35.759
 He says,

00:19:35.879 --> 00:19:37.019
 you think you followed

00:19:37.019 --> 00:19:37.839
 all these commandments

00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:39.000
 and the truth is,

00:19:39.160 --> 00:19:40.099
 I'm sure that guy

00:19:40.099 --> 00:19:41.160
 had not even obeyed

00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:41.980
 all those perfectly.

00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:43.539
 I'm sure he tried to.

00:19:43.980 --> 00:19:44.839
 He's probably a moral

00:19:44.839 --> 00:19:45.759
 upstanding guy.

00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:47.259
 Probably a kid

00:19:47.259 --> 00:19:47.960
 who mostly stayed

00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:48.759
 out of trouble, right?

00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:50.000
 But nobody's perfect

00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:50.779
 and there's no way

00:19:50.779 --> 00:19:51.379
 he was either.

00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:53.759
 But Jesus says,

00:19:53.859 --> 00:19:54.740
 if you want to be perfect,

00:19:56.000 --> 00:19:57.660
 love like I love.

00:19:59.279 --> 00:20:00.559
 Go and give up

00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:01.799
 everything on this earth.

00:20:02.680 --> 00:20:03.440
 Give it all away

00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:04.200
 and follow me.

00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:06.880
 And what happened?

00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:08.500
 The young man said,

00:20:08.620 --> 00:20:09.460
 yes sir, master,

00:20:09.580 --> 00:20:10.519
 I will follow you

00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:11.600
 to the end of my days.

00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:12.840
 No, he didn't.

00:20:14.259 --> 00:20:15.340
 Because we know

00:20:15.340 --> 00:20:16.220
 his heart

00:20:16.220 --> 00:20:17.460
 was not perfect.

00:20:18.299 --> 00:20:19.080
 His heart

00:20:19.080 --> 00:20:19.820
 was selfish.

00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:21.880
 The young man

00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:22.559
 heard this

00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:24.360
 and he went away sad

00:20:24.360 --> 00:20:25.900
 because he had

00:20:25.900 --> 00:20:27.620
 many possessions.

00:20:27.619 --> 00:20:31.259
 What are you

00:20:31.259 --> 00:20:32.239
 holding on to

00:20:32.239 --> 00:20:35.099
 that God wants you

00:20:35.099 --> 00:20:36.039
 to exchange

00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:37.379
 for his treasure?

00:20:39.939 --> 00:20:41.339
 You've all met Jesus.

00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:43.539
 You've all had

00:20:43.539 --> 00:20:44.219
 the encounter.

00:20:45.259 --> 00:20:46.019
 Doesn't mean

00:20:46.019 --> 00:20:46.719
 you're saved.

00:20:47.099 --> 00:20:47.539
 Doesn't mean

00:20:47.539 --> 00:20:48.559
 you placed your faith

00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:49.000
 in him.

00:20:49.159 --> 00:20:50.439
 But you've all heard

00:20:50.439 --> 00:20:52.059
 about Jesus Christ.

00:20:52.459 --> 00:20:53.239
 You've found

00:20:53.239 --> 00:20:54.059
 the treasure.

00:20:54.059 --> 00:20:55.500
 Now will you

00:20:55.500 --> 00:20:56.799
 give it all up

00:20:56.799 --> 00:20:57.839
 for him?

00:20:58.539 --> 00:21:00.000
 Will you give it all up

00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:00.940
 for that treasure?

00:21:01.259 --> 00:21:01.819
 Young people,

00:21:02.099 --> 00:21:03.079
 going off to college,

00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:04.220
 you are going to be

00:21:04.220 --> 00:21:04.839
 tested.

00:21:05.339 --> 00:21:06.460
 Your faith will be tested

00:21:06.460 --> 00:21:07.819
 in so many ways.

00:21:08.159 --> 00:21:08.899
 What will you

00:21:08.899 --> 00:21:09.659
 hold on to

00:21:09.659 --> 00:21:11.639
 that will keep you

00:21:11.639 --> 00:21:12.359
 from the treasure

00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:13.139
 of Jesus?

00:21:15.159 --> 00:21:16.159
 Speaking of that,

00:21:17.480 --> 00:21:18.220
 let's go back

00:21:18.220 --> 00:21:19.039
 to Matthew 13

00:21:19.039 --> 00:21:20.899
 where we started.

00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:22.279
 Matthew 13.

00:21:24.059 --> 00:21:25.339
 We looked at the poor man,

00:21:25.379 --> 00:21:25.799
 now we're looking

00:21:25.799 --> 00:21:26.460
 at the rich man.

00:21:32.940 --> 00:21:34.480
 The rich young ruler

00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:35.599
 that we just read about

00:21:35.599 --> 00:21:37.200
 that Jesus talked to,

00:21:37.379 --> 00:21:39.599
 he would not pay the cost.

00:21:40.200 --> 00:21:42.099
 The cost was everything

00:21:42.099 --> 00:21:44.000
 and he cared too much

00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:44.819
 for his possessions.

00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:46.339
 He cared too much

00:21:46.339 --> 00:21:47.099
 for his truck,

00:21:47.379 --> 00:21:48.339
 for his boat,

00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:49.859
 for his 401k,

00:21:50.419 --> 00:21:51.599
 for his vacations,

00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:54.359
 for his sports leagues,

00:21:54.879 --> 00:21:56.379
 for living vicariously

00:21:56.379 --> 00:21:57.139
 through his kids,

00:21:57.240 --> 00:21:58.319
 whatever it was,

00:21:58.500 --> 00:21:58.779
 okay,

00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:00.319
 whatever it was

00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:01.500
 that was keeping him

00:22:01.500 --> 00:22:04.299
 from pursuing Jesus

00:22:04.299 --> 00:22:06.000
 because he was scared

00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:07.839
 of what he might lose

00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:10.439
 and that's what happens to us.

00:22:10.819 --> 00:22:11.799
 We get scared

00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:13.439
 of what we might lose.

00:22:14.179 --> 00:22:14.419
 Well see,

00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:15.859
 I know what God wants for me

00:22:15.859 --> 00:22:18.359
 but this is what is important to me

00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:19.039
 and I'm afraid

00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:21.119
 he won't meet that need.

00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:21.839
 I'm afraid

00:22:21.839 --> 00:22:23.079
 he won't fulfill that

00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:25.940
 and we never get to experience

00:22:25.940 --> 00:22:26.859
 how good,

00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:27.799
 how fulfilling

00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:29.180
 he wants this life

00:22:29.180 --> 00:22:30.319
 to be for us.

00:22:30.859 --> 00:22:31.079
 So,

00:22:31.720 --> 00:22:32.500
 verse 45.

00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:36.180
 Matthew 13.

00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:38.359
 Let's look at it again.

00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:39.319
 Again,

00:22:39.440 --> 00:22:40.079
 the kingdom of heaven

00:22:40.079 --> 00:22:40.859
 is like a merchant

00:22:40.859 --> 00:22:41.519
 on the lookout

00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:42.619
 for choice pearls.

00:22:43.259 --> 00:22:44.920
 Totally different situation here.

00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:46.220
 When he discovered

00:22:46.220 --> 00:22:47.360
 a pearl of great value,

00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:49.440
 he sold everything he owned

00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:51.400
 and bought it.

00:22:51.820 --> 00:22:52.140
 You see,

00:22:52.300 --> 00:22:53.120
 wealthy merchants

00:22:53.120 --> 00:22:55.039
 would travel around the world

00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:57.320
 seeking out precious materials,

00:22:58.200 --> 00:22:58.519
 jewels,

00:22:58.759 --> 00:22:59.220
 stones,

00:22:59.980 --> 00:23:00.259
 money,

00:23:00.500 --> 00:23:00.860
 gold,

00:23:01.000 --> 00:23:01.340
 whatever,

00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:02.680
 precious herbs

00:23:02.680 --> 00:23:03.400
 at the time

00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:05.720
 and they would sell them

00:23:05.720 --> 00:23:06.320
 for a profit.

00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:07.420
 So,

00:23:07.500 --> 00:23:08.560
 they would go to the source,

00:23:08.700 --> 00:23:09.480
 try to find them,

00:23:10.060 --> 00:23:11.320
 get them at a bargain rate

00:23:11.320 --> 00:23:12.060
 and then turn around

00:23:12.060 --> 00:23:12.700
 and sell them

00:23:12.700 --> 00:23:14.360
 at their highest margin.

00:23:14.920 --> 00:23:17.380
 pearls

00:23:17.380 --> 00:23:18.920
 was a great one.

00:23:20.080 --> 00:23:21.840
 The ladies of the Roman court

00:23:21.840 --> 00:23:23.240
 would wear pearl necklaces.

00:23:23.440 --> 00:23:23.940
 It was like

00:23:23.940 --> 00:23:25.160
 the diamonds of the day,

00:23:25.240 --> 00:23:25.620
 basically.

00:23:26.539 --> 00:23:27.039
 And so,

00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:28.360
 this man came

00:23:28.360 --> 00:23:29.539
 and found

00:23:29.539 --> 00:23:31.240
 a great pearl,

00:23:31.640 --> 00:23:32.580
 the greatest pearl.

00:23:33.420 --> 00:23:34.860
 In Jesus' story here,

00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:35.539
 his illustration

00:23:35.539 --> 00:23:37.160
 that he's telling everyone,

00:23:37.320 --> 00:23:38.660
 this guy found the pearl

00:23:38.660 --> 00:23:40.460
 to beat all pearls,

00:23:41.340 --> 00:23:42.460
 the mother pearl,

00:23:43.539 --> 00:23:44.660
 mother of pearl,

00:23:44.920 --> 00:23:45.620
 sorry,

00:23:45.800 --> 00:23:46.480
 I got off track.

00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:48.779
 But you understand,

00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:50.980
 he found the greatest thing.

00:23:51.680 --> 00:23:51.940
 So,

00:23:52.019 --> 00:23:52.820
 this was a guy

00:23:52.820 --> 00:23:53.880
 who was not poor.

00:23:54.660 --> 00:23:55.440
 This was a guy

00:23:55.440 --> 00:23:56.400
 who did not work

00:23:56.400 --> 00:23:57.180
 for someone else.

00:23:57.380 --> 00:23:58.580
 He was his own boss.

00:23:58.880 --> 00:24:00.200
 He probably employed others

00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:02.300
 and he is a treasure hunter,

00:24:02.620 --> 00:24:03.759
 a treasure seeker,

00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:05.380
 entrepreneurial.

00:24:06.259 --> 00:24:07.019
 He'd go out

00:24:07.019 --> 00:24:07.800
 and he would make

00:24:07.800 --> 00:24:09.380
 the biggest margin he could.

00:24:09.380 --> 00:24:10.880
 and what happened?

00:24:11.520 --> 00:24:12.680
 He found the pearl.

00:24:13.020 --> 00:24:15.620
 He found the big heist.

00:24:16.060 --> 00:24:17.200
 He found the big treasure.

00:24:17.640 --> 00:24:18.560
 He hit the mother load

00:24:18.560 --> 00:24:20.680
 and he knew it.

00:24:21.380 --> 00:24:21.900
 And he said,

00:24:22.260 --> 00:24:23.220
 everything I've found

00:24:23.220 --> 00:24:24.340
 before this

00:24:24.340 --> 00:24:26.160
 doesn't measure up

00:24:26.160 --> 00:24:28.040
 to what I just found.

00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:29.440
 Do you see the similarity here?

00:24:29.820 --> 00:24:30.700
 You see the principle

00:24:30.700 --> 00:24:31.580
 that Jesus is trying

00:24:31.580 --> 00:24:32.300
 to get across?

00:24:32.760 --> 00:24:34.580
 Everything that I have had

00:24:34.580 --> 00:24:35.960
 up until this point

00:24:35.960 --> 00:24:38.079
 when I found this treasure,

00:24:38.360 --> 00:24:40.519
 it doesn't match in value.

00:24:40.900 --> 00:24:42.539
 This is the greatest thing.

00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:43.700
 Now,

00:24:43.720 --> 00:24:44.620
 most of us would agree

00:24:44.620 --> 00:24:45.279
 in this room,

00:24:46.100 --> 00:24:46.960
 Jesus is better

00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:47.700
 than all of us.

00:24:48.200 --> 00:24:49.019
 Jesus is greater.

00:24:49.400 --> 00:24:50.180
 Jesus is higher.

00:24:51.660 --> 00:24:52.740
 Many of us would say,

00:24:52.900 --> 00:24:53.100
 yes,

00:24:53.180 --> 00:24:54.620
 my faith is the most important

00:24:54.620 --> 00:24:55.539
 thing in my life,

00:24:55.640 --> 00:24:56.600
 but our actions,

00:24:57.240 --> 00:24:58.100
 our way of life,

00:24:58.200 --> 00:24:58.940
 what we're willing

00:24:58.940 --> 00:25:00.160
 to walk away from

00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:02.259
 says that is a lie.

00:25:04.039 --> 00:25:04.759
 It says we don't

00:25:04.759 --> 00:25:05.759
 really believe that.

00:25:06.860 --> 00:25:08.279
 But this rich man did.

00:25:09.120 --> 00:25:10.779
 He saw something

00:25:10.779 --> 00:25:11.779
 that was truly

00:25:11.779 --> 00:25:12.759
 the greatest value.

00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:14.980
 But sometimes,

00:25:15.700 --> 00:25:17.319
 we got too much going on.

00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:19.660
 We've got too much

00:25:19.660 --> 00:25:20.279
 of a life

00:25:20.279 --> 00:25:21.259
 that we have built up

00:25:21.259 --> 00:25:21.920
 for ourselves

00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:23.920
 and we're not willing

00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:25.940
 to let God

00:25:25.940 --> 00:25:27.779
 move us away from it.

00:25:28.180 --> 00:25:29.340
 We're not willing

00:25:29.340 --> 00:25:30.220
 to let God

00:25:30.220 --> 00:25:31.900
 change our direction

00:25:31.900 --> 00:25:33.140
 until you've been

00:25:33.140 --> 00:25:34.539
 radically changed

00:25:34.539 --> 00:25:35.700
 by God.

00:25:35.700 --> 00:25:35.740
 God,

00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:37.080
 you haven't really

00:25:37.080 --> 00:25:38.420
 experienced Jesus.

00:25:39.920 --> 00:25:41.660
 He will radically

00:25:41.660 --> 00:25:42.440
 change you.

00:25:43.360 --> 00:25:44.460
 It might be quick.

00:25:44.720 --> 00:25:46.120
 It might be over time.

00:25:46.279 --> 00:25:47.460
 But He will

00:25:47.460 --> 00:25:48.400
 change you.

00:25:49.240 --> 00:25:50.259
 And if you haven't

00:25:50.259 --> 00:25:51.420
 truly been

00:25:51.420 --> 00:25:52.720
 changed by Jesus,

00:25:53.080 --> 00:25:54.400
 then maybe you haven't

00:25:54.400 --> 00:25:55.440
 yet encountered Him.

00:25:56.480 --> 00:25:57.299
 Maybe you've heard

00:25:57.299 --> 00:25:57.759
 about Him.

00:25:58.019 --> 00:25:58.880
 Maybe you're Jesus

00:25:58.880 --> 00:25:59.539
 adjacent.

00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:00.340
 Right?

00:26:00.339 --> 00:26:02.179
 Maybe you've attended

00:26:02.179 --> 00:26:03.079
 church every once

00:26:03.079 --> 00:26:03.399
 in a while.

00:26:04.179 --> 00:26:05.079
 Maybe you're faithful

00:26:05.079 --> 00:26:05.699
 in church.

00:26:06.500 --> 00:26:07.439
 Maybe you could answer

00:26:07.439 --> 00:26:08.139
 Bible trivia.

00:26:09.099 --> 00:26:09.759
 Maybe you grew up

00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:10.480
 in Sunday school.

00:26:11.299 --> 00:26:12.639
 But you haven't really

00:26:12.639 --> 00:26:13.500
 been changed

00:26:13.500 --> 00:26:14.679
 by Jesus.

00:26:15.959 --> 00:26:16.779
 Because when you

00:26:16.779 --> 00:26:17.839
 really encounter Him,

00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:19.559
 He'll change

00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:20.079
 your direction.

00:26:22.220 --> 00:26:23.039
 He'll make you

00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:23.759
 give something up.

00:26:23.899 --> 00:26:24.899
 And you'll be glad to.

00:26:25.360 --> 00:26:26.500
 You'll be happy to.

00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:28.420
 Because you realize

00:26:28.420 --> 00:26:29.480
 how much more valuable

00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:30.240
 it is.

00:26:30.420 --> 00:26:31.460
 Philippians chapter 3.

00:26:32.180 --> 00:26:32.740
 Paul said,

00:26:32.860 --> 00:26:33.040
 listen,

00:26:33.180 --> 00:26:34.220
 I had a lot going on.

00:26:35.060 --> 00:26:36.120
 This Paul guy

00:26:36.120 --> 00:26:36.780
 that was Saul,

00:26:36.820 --> 00:26:37.380
 and we talked about

00:26:37.380 --> 00:26:38.000
 him a minute ago,

00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:39.040
 God changed him

00:26:39.040 --> 00:26:40.060
 on the road to Damascus.

00:26:40.059 --> 00:26:40.960
 He's literally

00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:42.119
 persecuting Christians,

00:26:42.419 --> 00:26:43.399
 working for the government,

00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:45.500
 got a high paying salary.

00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:45.919
 He says,

00:26:46.019 --> 00:26:46.139
 look,

00:26:46.339 --> 00:26:47.059
 I could have had

00:26:47.059 --> 00:26:48.440
 confidence in my own

00:26:48.440 --> 00:26:49.940
 effort if anyone could.

00:26:51.339 --> 00:26:52.539
 If others have reason

00:26:52.539 --> 00:26:53.179
 for confidence

00:26:53.179 --> 00:26:54.019
 in their efforts,

00:26:54.279 --> 00:26:55.200
 I could have had

00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:55.759
 even more.

00:26:57.059 --> 00:26:57.319
 Now,

00:26:57.700 --> 00:26:58.740
 this may not

00:26:58.740 --> 00:27:00.460
 match up with your resume,

00:27:00.679 --> 00:27:01.259
 but back then

00:27:01.259 --> 00:27:02.179
 this was a great resume.

00:27:02.379 --> 00:27:02.500
 Okay?

00:27:02.659 --> 00:27:03.679
 I was circumcised

00:27:03.679 --> 00:27:04.720
 when I was eight days old.

00:27:05.419 --> 00:27:06.740
 That was like a big thing

00:27:06.740 --> 00:27:07.299
 back then,

00:27:07.359 --> 00:27:07.980
 because only the Jews

00:27:07.980 --> 00:27:08.299
 did it.

00:27:08.659 --> 00:27:09.700
 I am a pure-blooded

00:27:09.700 --> 00:27:10.680
 citizen of Israel.

00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:11.400
 I'm a member

00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:12.480
 of the tribe of Benjamin,

00:27:12.779 --> 00:27:13.660
 a real Hebrew

00:27:13.660 --> 00:27:14.700
 if there ever was one.

00:27:14.840 --> 00:27:15.559
 I was a member

00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:16.819
 of the Pharisees.

00:27:17.660 --> 00:27:18.720
 Those were the top dogs,

00:27:18.779 --> 00:27:19.019
 right?

00:27:19.920 --> 00:27:20.539
 Top dogs,

00:27:20.620 --> 00:27:22.340
 not only on the religious scale,

00:27:22.420 --> 00:27:23.519
 but also in society.

00:27:24.420 --> 00:27:25.340
 I was a member

00:27:25.340 --> 00:27:26.120
 of the Pharisees

00:27:26.120 --> 00:27:26.680
 who demand

00:27:26.680 --> 00:27:27.700
 the strictest obedience

00:27:27.700 --> 00:27:28.700
 to the Jewish law.

00:27:28.900 --> 00:27:30.279
 I was so zealous,

00:27:30.620 --> 00:27:32.200
 I harshly persecuted

00:27:32.200 --> 00:27:32.860
 the church,

00:27:33.220 --> 00:27:34.220
 Jesus' followers.

00:27:35.420 --> 00:27:36.019
 They were not

00:27:36.019 --> 00:27:36.960
 the predominant religion

00:27:36.960 --> 00:27:37.480
 of the day.

00:27:37.980 --> 00:27:38.940
 And as for righteousness,

00:27:38.940 --> 00:27:40.799
 I obeyed the law

00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:41.620
 without fault.

00:27:42.660 --> 00:27:43.259
 It's kind of like

00:27:43.259 --> 00:27:43.779
 that other guy

00:27:43.779 --> 00:27:44.660
 that Jesus talked to,

00:27:44.720 --> 00:27:44.920
 right?

00:27:45.420 --> 00:27:46.320
 I obeyed the law.

00:27:46.799 --> 00:27:47.680
 I didn't mess up.

00:27:48.059 --> 00:27:48.860
 But he knew

00:27:48.860 --> 00:27:49.860
 he wasn't perfect

00:27:49.860 --> 00:27:51.039
 because his heart

00:27:51.039 --> 00:27:51.759
 was wrong.

00:27:52.660 --> 00:27:53.759
 That's the problem.

00:27:54.140 --> 00:27:55.180
 You can go day

00:27:55.180 --> 00:27:55.940
 after day

00:27:55.940 --> 00:27:57.100
 without violating

00:27:57.100 --> 00:27:58.480
 any Ten Commandments

00:27:58.480 --> 00:28:00.860
 and you are still sinning

00:28:00.860 --> 00:28:02.000
 because your heart

00:28:02.000 --> 00:28:03.640
 is not after God.

00:28:04.860 --> 00:28:05.820
 Paul knew that.

00:28:05.819 --> 00:28:07.139
 He said,

00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:08.059
 I once thought

00:28:08.059 --> 00:28:08.740
 these things

00:28:08.740 --> 00:28:09.359
 were valuable.

00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:10.500
 Y'all,

00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:11.200
 would you read that

00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:11.859
 with me again?

00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:12.859
 I put it in bold.

00:28:13.419 --> 00:28:14.599
 I once thought

00:28:14.599 --> 00:28:15.659
 these things

00:28:15.659 --> 00:28:16.519
 were valuable.

00:28:16.879 --> 00:28:17.619
 Think through

00:28:17.619 --> 00:28:18.539
 your life.

00:28:18.859 --> 00:28:19.419
 Your resume

00:28:19.419 --> 00:28:19.980
 is going to look

00:28:19.980 --> 00:28:20.559
 a little different

00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:21.279
 than Paul's.

00:28:22.419 --> 00:28:23.519
 The things that you

00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:24.439
 value and treasure

00:28:24.439 --> 00:28:25.099
 are going to look

00:28:25.099 --> 00:28:25.759
 a little different

00:28:25.759 --> 00:28:26.500
 than Paul's.

00:28:26.599 --> 00:28:27.480
 But would you think

00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:28.379
 with me right now

00:28:28.379 --> 00:28:28.980
 in your mind,

00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:31.399
 I once thought

00:28:31.399 --> 00:28:32.059
 these things

00:28:32.059 --> 00:28:32.679
 were valuable.

00:28:33.159 --> 00:28:34.339
 Maybe it was yesterday.

00:28:34.339 --> 00:28:36.259
 Maybe it was this morning.

00:28:37.419 --> 00:28:38.399
 But God,

00:28:38.839 --> 00:28:39.459
 show me

00:28:39.459 --> 00:28:41.639
 where real value is.

00:28:43.079 --> 00:28:44.419
 Paul had that encounter

00:28:44.419 --> 00:28:44.899
 with Jesus

00:28:44.899 --> 00:28:45.939
 and it changed him.

00:28:46.299 --> 00:28:46.679
 He said,

00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:47.799
 now I consider

00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:48.639
 these things

00:28:48.639 --> 00:28:49.619
 worthless.

00:28:51.779 --> 00:28:52.519
 Does that mean

00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:52.980
 you got to go

00:28:52.980 --> 00:28:54.139
 sell all your possessions?

00:28:54.339 --> 00:28:54.639
 I don't know

00:28:54.639 --> 00:28:55.559
 what God has for you.

00:28:56.039 --> 00:28:56.939
 Not necessarily.

00:28:58.480 --> 00:28:59.980
 As long as you realize

00:28:59.980 --> 00:29:01.019
 how worthless they are.

00:29:02.439 --> 00:29:03.539
 The TV in my bedroom

00:29:03.539 --> 00:29:03.940
 went out

00:29:03.940 --> 00:29:04.680
 and I had to get

00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:05.259
 a new TV

00:29:05.259 --> 00:29:06.259
 and it was bigger.

00:29:09.099 --> 00:29:09.980
 Worst day ever.

00:29:10.859 --> 00:29:11.480
 Sorry, babe.

00:29:11.539 --> 00:29:12.319
 The TV went out.

00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:12.899
 Obviously,

00:29:13.019 --> 00:29:13.559
 we're not going to get

00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:14.759
 one of the same size.

00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:15.500
 Come on now.

00:29:17.259 --> 00:29:18.299
 And that thing's awesome.

00:29:19.899 --> 00:29:20.559
 In reality,

00:29:20.619 --> 00:29:21.440
 I moved the living room

00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:23.200
 one into the bedroom.

00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:24.819
 So that's bigger

00:29:24.819 --> 00:29:25.700
 and now I got a bigger one

00:29:25.700 --> 00:29:26.539
 in the living room.

00:29:26.599 --> 00:29:27.139
 It's great.

00:29:28.859 --> 00:29:29.539
 But look,

00:29:29.659 --> 00:29:31.159
 that TV is worthless.

00:29:31.160 --> 00:29:31.640
 Now,

00:29:33.360 --> 00:29:34.060
 my credit card

00:29:34.060 --> 00:29:34.580
 would not say

00:29:34.580 --> 00:29:35.080
 it's worthless

00:29:35.080 --> 00:29:36.040
 because there was

00:29:36.040 --> 00:29:37.519
 a worth ascribed to it

00:29:37.519 --> 00:29:38.279
 that I had to pay.

00:29:38.940 --> 00:29:39.800
 Got it on sale

00:29:39.800 --> 00:29:40.960
 anyway.

00:29:42.040 --> 00:29:42.960
 But in reality,

00:29:43.180 --> 00:29:44.740
 that TV is worthless.

00:29:45.480 --> 00:29:46.380
 All the TVs

00:29:46.380 --> 00:29:47.460
 could go out tomorrow

00:29:47.460 --> 00:29:49.080
 and I would be okay.

00:29:49.340 --> 00:29:50.700
 My family would be okay.

00:29:51.560 --> 00:29:52.480
 We'd have to break out

00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:53.000
 some books,

00:29:53.259 --> 00:29:53.500
 you know,

00:29:53.560 --> 00:29:54.279
 some board games,

00:29:54.400 --> 00:29:54.640
 whatever.

00:29:54.800 --> 00:29:55.560
 We'll figure it out.

00:29:56.360 --> 00:29:57.140
 Break out the Bible.

00:29:57.140 --> 00:30:02.280
 But what is

00:30:02.280 --> 00:30:03.560
 of value to you

00:30:03.560 --> 00:30:04.660
 and what is worthless?

00:30:05.880 --> 00:30:07.000
 The things

00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:08.220
 that this world

00:30:08.220 --> 00:30:09.080
 teaches us

00:30:09.080 --> 00:30:10.420
 are of great value.

00:30:10.860 --> 00:30:11.900
 We've got to come

00:30:11.900 --> 00:30:12.420
 to the place

00:30:12.420 --> 00:30:13.020
 where we say

00:30:13.020 --> 00:30:14.000
 they're not.

00:30:14.840 --> 00:30:15.460
 They're worthless.

00:30:16.759 --> 00:30:17.759
 You know what has value?

00:30:18.680 --> 00:30:19.600
 Following Jesus

00:30:19.600 --> 00:30:20.240
 with your life.

00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:22.320
 The fellowship

00:30:22.320 --> 00:30:22.880
 and community

00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:23.340
 you get

00:30:23.340 --> 00:30:24.360
 in the body of Christ.

00:30:24.359 --> 00:30:26.519
 the hope

00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:26.879
 and joy

00:30:26.879 --> 00:30:27.379
 and peace

00:30:27.379 --> 00:30:28.639
 and all the comfort

00:30:28.639 --> 00:30:29.759
 that God gives you.

00:30:31.139 --> 00:30:32.059
 That has value.

00:30:32.699 --> 00:30:33.459
 That's what matters.

00:30:33.699 --> 00:30:34.539
 That's what your children need.

00:30:35.199 --> 00:30:35.899
 That's what these graduates

00:30:35.899 --> 00:30:36.819
 need to take with them

00:30:36.819 --> 00:30:37.559
 into their life.

00:30:37.779 --> 00:30:39.639
 That has value.

00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:40.659
 So Paul said,

00:30:40.779 --> 00:30:41.479
 I now consider

00:30:41.479 --> 00:30:42.459
 these things worthless.

00:30:42.699 --> 00:30:42.939
 Why?

00:30:43.279 --> 00:30:44.539
 Because of what Christ

00:30:44.539 --> 00:30:45.359
 has done.

00:30:45.779 --> 00:30:47.219
 That's where real value is.

00:30:47.579 --> 00:30:48.439
 Everything else

00:30:48.439 --> 00:30:49.119
 is worthless

00:30:49.119 --> 00:30:49.839
 when compared

00:30:49.839 --> 00:30:51.619
 with the infinite value

00:30:51.619 --> 00:30:52.619
 of knowing

00:30:52.619 --> 00:30:53.519
 Christ Jesus

00:30:53.519 --> 00:30:54.059
 my Lord.

00:30:54.059 --> 00:30:55.299
 There is nothing else

00:30:55.299 --> 00:30:56.019
 on this earth

00:30:56.019 --> 00:30:57.559
 that has infinite value.

00:30:58.220 --> 00:30:59.779
 You can get all the platinum

00:30:59.779 --> 00:31:00.519
 and diamonds

00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:01.700
 and pearls

00:31:01.700 --> 00:31:02.559
 and anything

00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:03.440
 on this earth

00:31:03.440 --> 00:31:04.460
 that the world

00:31:04.460 --> 00:31:06.279
 ascribes great value to

00:31:06.279 --> 00:31:07.559
 and it will never

00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:09.419
 have infinite value.

00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:10.720
 There will always

00:31:10.720 --> 00:31:11.399
 be an end

00:31:11.399 --> 00:31:12.159
 to its value.

00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:14.859
 Not so

00:31:14.859 --> 00:31:15.679
 with Jesus Christ.

00:31:16.700 --> 00:31:16.919
 So

00:31:16.919 --> 00:31:19.819
 that's why he said

00:31:19.819 --> 00:31:20.639
 for his sake

00:31:20.639 --> 00:31:22.099
 for Jesus' sake

00:31:22.099 --> 00:31:22.980
 I have discarded

00:31:22.980 --> 00:31:24.279
 everything else

00:31:24.279 --> 00:31:25.459
 counting it all

00:31:25.459 --> 00:31:26.899
 as garbage

00:31:26.899 --> 00:31:29.719
 so that I could

00:31:29.719 --> 00:31:30.879
 gain Christ

00:31:30.879 --> 00:31:31.879
 and become

00:31:31.879 --> 00:31:33.000
 one with him.

00:31:33.259 --> 00:31:34.119
 Do you understand?

00:31:35.500 --> 00:31:36.639
 He was still

00:31:36.639 --> 00:31:37.039
 a Hebrew.

00:31:38.199 --> 00:31:39.159
 He still had

00:31:39.159 --> 00:31:39.859
 his medals

00:31:39.859 --> 00:31:40.539
 on the wall.

00:31:42.939 --> 00:31:44.500
 When you walk away

00:31:44.500 --> 00:31:46.519
 from what's holding

00:31:46.519 --> 00:31:47.179
 you back

00:31:47.179 --> 00:31:48.240
 what you used

00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:48.859
 to consider

00:31:48.859 --> 00:31:49.699
 the most valuable

00:31:49.700 --> 00:31:51.059
 it doesn't necessarily

00:31:51.059 --> 00:31:51.920
 mean it's all

00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:52.640
 going to go away

00:31:52.640 --> 00:31:53.100
 immediately.

00:31:54.940 --> 00:31:56.420
 But your perspective

00:31:56.420 --> 00:31:57.059
 on it

00:31:57.059 --> 00:31:57.620
 shifts.

00:31:58.680 --> 00:31:59.259
 Now

00:31:59.259 --> 00:32:01.259
 if I lose

00:32:01.259 --> 00:32:01.960
 my truck

00:32:01.960 --> 00:32:03.220
 if I lose

00:32:03.220 --> 00:32:04.259
 the great house

00:32:04.259 --> 00:32:05.799
 if I lose

00:32:05.799 --> 00:32:07.420
 the big retirement

00:32:07.420 --> 00:32:08.620
 whatever it is

00:32:08.620 --> 00:32:09.819
 it's not going

00:32:09.819 --> 00:32:11.019
 to kill me anymore.

00:32:11.019 --> 00:32:12.599
 it's not

00:32:12.599 --> 00:32:13.440
 going to drive

00:32:13.440 --> 00:32:14.379
 me to depression.

00:32:15.339 --> 00:32:15.759
 Now

00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:16.420
 it's not

00:32:16.420 --> 00:32:17.000
 going to

00:32:17.000 --> 00:32:17.500
 affect

00:32:17.500 --> 00:32:18.900
 my spirit

00:32:18.900 --> 00:32:19.779
 because my

00:32:19.779 --> 00:32:20.259
 spirit

00:32:20.259 --> 00:32:21.400
 rests in

00:32:21.400 --> 00:32:22.099
 Christ.

00:32:23.019 --> 00:32:24.059
 I no longer

00:32:24.059 --> 00:32:25.019
 count on my

00:32:25.019 --> 00:32:25.480
 righteousness

00:32:25.480 --> 00:32:26.119
 through obeying

00:32:26.119 --> 00:32:26.500
 the law

00:32:26.500 --> 00:32:27.139
 now

00:32:27.139 --> 00:32:27.740
 rather

00:32:27.740 --> 00:32:28.359
 I become

00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:28.779
 righteous

00:32:28.779 --> 00:32:29.579
 through faith

00:32:29.579 --> 00:32:30.079
 in Christ.

00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:30.920
 That's why

00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:31.740
 it's so valuable.

00:32:32.299 --> 00:32:33.019
 It's saving

00:32:33.019 --> 00:32:33.940
 your soul.

00:32:34.539 --> 00:32:35.079
 It's giving

00:32:35.079 --> 00:32:35.839
 you a future.

00:32:36.299 --> 00:32:36.740
 It's giving

00:32:36.740 --> 00:32:37.339
 you a home

00:32:37.339 --> 00:32:37.779
 in heaven.

00:32:38.099 --> 00:32:38.660
 It's giving

00:32:38.660 --> 00:32:39.440
 you something

00:32:39.440 --> 00:32:40.119
 that can't

00:32:40.119 --> 00:32:40.659
 be taken

00:32:40.659 --> 00:32:41.539
 away from

00:32:41.539 --> 00:32:41.819
 you.

00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:43.259
 Do you

00:32:43.259 --> 00:32:43.699
 understand

00:32:43.699 --> 00:32:44.379
 that everything

00:32:44.379 --> 00:32:45.599
 in this

00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:46.079
 world that

00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:46.479
 you can

00:32:46.479 --> 00:32:46.939
 pursue

00:32:46.939 --> 00:32:48.079
 can be

00:32:48.079 --> 00:32:48.839
 taken away

00:32:48.839 --> 00:32:49.379
 from you?

00:32:49.619 --> 00:32:49.919
 He said

00:32:49.919 --> 00:32:50.539
 not family.

00:32:50.699 --> 00:32:51.179
 Oh yes.

00:32:52.079 --> 00:32:52.399
 How many

00:32:52.399 --> 00:32:52.699
 of you have

00:32:52.699 --> 00:32:53.119
 lost a

00:32:53.119 --> 00:32:53.579
 loved one?

00:32:54.379 --> 00:32:54.859
 They can

00:32:54.859 --> 00:32:55.399
 be taken.

00:32:57.759 --> 00:32:58.319
 Everything

00:32:58.319 --> 00:32:59.359
 in this

00:32:59.359 --> 00:32:59.719
 world

00:32:59.719 --> 00:33:00.479
 can be

00:33:00.479 --> 00:33:01.099
 taken from

00:33:01.099 --> 00:33:01.359
 you.

00:33:01.659 --> 00:33:02.039
 But your

00:33:02.039 --> 00:33:02.679
 faith in

00:33:02.679 --> 00:33:02.979
 Christ

00:33:02.979 --> 00:33:03.759
 the righteousness

00:33:03.759 --> 00:33:04.659
 that he

00:33:04.659 --> 00:33:05.439
 places on

00:33:05.439 --> 00:33:06.119
 you can

00:33:06.119 --> 00:33:06.759
 never be

00:33:06.759 --> 00:33:07.319
 taken away.

00:33:08.399 --> 00:33:08.799
 So I'm

00:33:08.799 --> 00:33:09.299
 trying to

00:33:09.299 --> 00:33:10.099
 get all

00:33:10.099 --> 00:33:10.419
 of us

00:33:10.419 --> 00:33:10.779
 myself

00:33:10.779 --> 00:33:11.339
 included

00:33:11.339 --> 00:33:12.099
 and everyone

00:33:12.099 --> 00:33:12.500
 in this

00:33:12.500 --> 00:33:13.119
 room to

00:33:13.119 --> 00:33:13.919
 realize where

00:33:13.919 --> 00:33:14.559
 the real

00:33:14.559 --> 00:33:15.879
 value is

00:33:15.879 --> 00:33:17.099
 in something

00:33:17.099 --> 00:33:17.779
 that cannot

00:33:17.779 --> 00:33:18.459
 be taken

00:33:18.459 --> 00:33:19.039
 away.

00:33:20.699 --> 00:33:20.919
 So

00:33:20.919 --> 00:33:22.719
 that's

00:33:22.719 --> 00:33:23.079
 God's

00:33:23.079 --> 00:33:24.359
 way of

00:33:24.359 --> 00:33:25.519
 making us

00:33:25.519 --> 00:33:26.039
 right with

00:33:26.039 --> 00:33:26.519
 himself.

00:33:26.799 --> 00:33:27.719
 It depends

00:33:27.719 --> 00:33:28.319
 on our

00:33:28.319 --> 00:33:28.719
 faith.

00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:31.379
 Would you

00:33:31.379 --> 00:33:31.740
 go with me

00:33:31.740 --> 00:33:32.259
 to 1 Timothy

00:33:32.259 --> 00:33:32.539
 and we'll

00:33:32.539 --> 00:33:32.859
 be done.

00:33:34.559 --> 00:33:35.240
 1 Timothy

00:33:35.240 --> 00:33:35.980
 chapter 6

00:33:35.980 --> 00:33:37.740
 verse 17

00:33:37.740 --> 00:33:38.299
 through 19.

00:33:38.299 --> 00:33:41.720
 Paul hit

00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:42.099
 the top

00:33:42.099 --> 00:33:42.359
 of his

00:33:42.359 --> 00:33:42.680
 career.

00:33:42.819 --> 00:33:43.079
 He had

00:33:43.079 --> 00:33:43.460
 it all

00:33:43.460 --> 00:33:44.279
 but he

00:33:44.279 --> 00:33:44.680
 found it

00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:44.879
 was

00:33:44.879 --> 00:33:45.319
 worthless

00:33:45.319 --> 00:33:46.720
 once he

00:33:46.720 --> 00:33:47.180
 met

00:33:47.180 --> 00:33:47.639
 Jesus.

00:33:47.980 --> 00:33:48.480
 Have you

00:33:48.480 --> 00:33:49.240
 really met

00:33:49.240 --> 00:33:49.599
 Jesus?

00:33:53.359 --> 00:33:54.099
 Then you'll

00:33:54.099 --> 00:33:54.720
 see how

00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:55.139
 worthless

00:33:55.139 --> 00:33:56.119
 everything else

00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:56.419
 is.

00:33:57.700 --> 00:33:58.240
 Maybe you've

00:33:58.240 --> 00:33:58.559
 just heard

00:33:58.559 --> 00:33:58.899
 about him.

00:33:58.900 --> 00:34:01.519
 if you've

00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:02.040
 really met

00:34:02.040 --> 00:34:02.480
 Jesus

00:34:02.480 --> 00:34:03.940
 then why

00:34:03.940 --> 00:34:04.160
 do your

00:34:04.160 --> 00:34:04.660
 plans

00:34:04.660 --> 00:34:05.300
 have so

00:34:05.300 --> 00:34:05.700

00:34:05.700 --> 00:34:06.060
 do with

00:34:06.060 --> 00:34:06.259
 him?

00:34:07.460 --> 00:34:07.900
 Graduates

 to do

00:34:12.920 --> 00:34:13.420
 with Jesus

00:34:13.420 --> 00:34:13.800
 in your

00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:14.099
 life.

 As you

00:34:41.219 --> 00:34:41.559

00:34:51.719 --> 00:34:51.880
 your

00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:52.320
 grandparents

00:34:52.320 --> 00:34:53.019
 ask

00:34:53.019 --> 00:34:53.279

00:34:54.159 --> 00:34:54.500
 it's

00:34:54.500 --> 00:34:54.699
 so

00:34:54.699 --> 00:34:55.039
 easy

00:34:55.039 --> 00:34:55.480
 for

00:34:55.480 --> 00:34:55.659
 your

 to

00:34:56.340 --> 00:34:56.659
 start

00:34:56.659 --> 00:34:56.880
 to

00:34:56.880 --> 00:34:57.179
 not

00:34:57.179 --> 00:34:57.659
 involve

00:34:57.659 --> 00:34:58.019
 Jesus

00:34:58.019 --> 00:34:58.300
 at

00:34:58.300 --> 00:34:58.599
 all.

00:35:00.920 --> 00:35:01.619
 It's not

00:35:01.619 --> 00:35:01.920
 that you

00:35:01.920 --> 00:35:02.279
 willingly

00:35:02.279 --> 00:35:02.719
 turned your

00:35:02.719 --> 00:35:03.099
 back on

00:35:03.099 --> 00:35:03.219
 him.

00:35:04.719 --> 00:35:05.039
 No.

00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:05.679
 Life

00:35:05.679 --> 00:35:06.199
 just kind

00:35:06.199 --> 00:35:06.380
 of

00:35:06.380 --> 00:35:07.099
 drifted

00:35:07.099 --> 00:35:07.199
 you

00:35:07.199 --> 00:35:07.480
 apart.

00:35:08.380 --> 00:35:08.679
 It'll

00:35:08.679 --> 00:35:08.840
 do

00:35:08.840 --> 00:35:09.099
 that

00:35:09.099 --> 00:35:09.759
 if

00:35:09.759 --> 00:35:09.860
 we

00:35:09.860 --> 00:35:10.039
 don't

00:35:10.039 --> 00:35:10.539
 intentionally

00:35:10.539 --> 00:35:11.679
 keep

00:35:11.679 --> 00:35:11.860
 our

00:35:11.860 --> 00:35:12.059
 eyes

00:35:12.059 --> 00:35:12.420
 fixed

00:35:12.420 --> 00:35:12.840
 on

00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:13.079
 Jesus.

00:35:13.219 --> 00:35:13.320
 So

 1 Timothy

00:35:17.320 --> 00:35:17.579
 I was

00:35:17.579 --> 00:35:17.820
 talking

00:35:17.820 --> 00:35:17.940
 to

00:35:17.940 --> 00:35:18.099
 y'all

00:35:18.099 --> 00:35:18.199
 and

00:35:18.199 --> 00:35:18.380
 forgot

00:35:18.380 --> 00:35:18.519
 to

00:35:18.539 --> 00:35:18.679
 turn

00:35:18.679 --> 00:35:18.800
 there

00:35:18.800 --> 00:35:19.159
 myself

00:35:19.159 --> 00:35:19.539
 so

00:35:19.539 --> 00:35:19.679
 give

00:35:19.679 --> 00:35:19.779
 me

00:35:19.779 --> 00:35:19.980

00:35:23.000 --> 00:35:23.920
 Teach

00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:24.320
 those

00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:24.519
 who

00:35:24.519 --> 00:35:24.679
 are

00:35:24.679 --> 00:35:25.059
 rich

00:35:25.500 --> 00:35:25.800
 world

00:35:25.800 --> 00:35:26.139
 not

00:35:26.139 --> 00:35:26.300
 to

00:35:26.300 --> 00:35:26.440
 be

00:35:26.440 --> 00:35:26.779
 proud

00:35:26.779 --> 00:35:27.039
 and

00:35:27.039 --> 00:35:27.360
 not

00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:27.559
 to

00:35:29.300 --> 00:35:29.679
 so

00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:30.460
 unreliable.

00:35:31.579 --> 00:35:31.719
 Their

00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:32.139
 trust

00:35:32.139 --> 00:35:32.380
 should

 be

00:35:32.639 --> 00:35:32.920
 in

00:35:32.920 --> 00:35:33.320
 God

 good.

00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:39.699
 And

 for

00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:49.199
 right?

00:35:49.980 --> 00:35:50.119
 There's

00:35:54.440 --> 00:35:54.840
 is.

00:35:55.779 --> 00:35:55.980
 And

00:41:09.880 --> 00:41:10.119
 well

00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:11.839
 but

00:41:11.839 --> 00:41:12.219
 listen

00:41:12.219 --> 00:41:15.019
 whether

 you've

00:41:15.420 --> 00:41:15.699

00:41:15.699 --> 00:41:15.940
 into

 the

 kingdom

00:41:16.359 --> 00:41:17.559
 like

 you

00:41:19.420 --> 00:41:19.659
 weren't

00:41:19.659 --> 00:41:19.980
 setting

00:41:19.980 --> 00:41:20.239
 out

00:41:20.679 --> 00:41:21.139
 riches

00:41:21.139 --> 00:41:22.859
 but

00:41:22.859 --> 00:41:23.319
 God

00:41:23.319 --> 00:41:23.699
 when

00:41:23.699 --> 00:41:23.920
 you

00:41:23.920 --> 00:41:24.179
 weren't

00:41:24.179 --> 00:41:24.480
 seeking

00:41:24.480 --> 00:41:24.880
 him

00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:25.259
 God

00:41:25.259 --> 00:41:25.480
 was

 seeking

00:41:25.779 --> 00:41:26.199
 you

00:41:26.199 --> 00:41:28.380

00:41:28.500 --> 00:41:28.839
 found

00:41:28.839 --> 00:41:29.199
 you

00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:30.279
 and

 you

00:41:30.420 --> 00:41:30.739
 found

00:41:30.739 --> 00:41:31.119
 him

00:41:31.119 --> 00:41:32.219
 and

00:41:32.219 --> 00:41:32.380
 you

00:41:32.380 --> 00:41:32.819
 realized

00:41:38.339 --> 00:41:38.719
 years

00:41:38.719 --> 00:41:39.579
 maybe

00:41:39.579 --> 00:41:39.819
 you've

00:41:39.819 --> 00:41:39.940
