00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.040
 For a moment, let's bow our heads in prayer.

00:00:07.280 --> 00:00:10.140
 Father, it can be very lonely in life.

00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:11.500
 It can be very stressful.

00:00:11.740 --> 00:00:12.780
 It can be very hectic.

00:00:15.060 --> 00:00:17.640
 There can be lots of anxiety in our lives.

00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:22.019
 And so, Father, we give you thanks and praise

00:00:22.019 --> 00:00:24.100
 that you have invited us week by week

00:00:24.100 --> 00:00:27.160
 to gather with others who are your people

00:00:27.160 --> 00:00:29.539
 and to come into your presence

00:00:29.539 --> 00:00:33.899
 to sit and stand and sing and pray in your presence

00:00:33.899 --> 00:00:37.460
 and to receive grace from you Sunday by Sunday.

00:00:38.539 --> 00:00:40.479
 Father, it is a great honour and privilege

00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:42.840
 that you desire us to be in your presence

00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:44.700
 to receive grace from you.

00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:47.939
 And we know, Father, that you bestow grace on your people

00:00:47.939 --> 00:00:49.039
 as we are in your presence.

00:00:49.899 --> 00:00:51.859
 And we ask, Father, that your Holy Spirit

00:00:51.859 --> 00:00:54.219
 would work deeply but gently in our hearts,

00:00:54.939 --> 00:00:57.439
 that we might receive the grace you desire

00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:58.480
 to give us this morning

00:00:58.479 --> 00:01:01.899
 and that we might respond in a worthy manner,

00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:04.340
 a manner which is worthy of your glory,

00:01:04.579 --> 00:01:05.239
 worthy of us,

00:01:05.340 --> 00:01:07.579
 and worthy of the great needs of the world.

00:01:08.379 --> 00:01:10.620
 And so, Father, we ask that you would do this gentle

00:01:10.620 --> 00:01:13.019
 but deep and mysterious miracle in our hearts

00:01:13.019 --> 00:01:15.780
 once again today as we gather in your presence.

00:01:15.780 --> 00:01:17.739
 And we ask this in the name of Jesus,

00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:19.640
 your Son and our Savior.

00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:20.379
 Amen.

00:01:21.140 --> 00:01:22.099
 Please be seated.

00:01:29.960 --> 00:01:36.439
 So I have a trigger warning this morning.

00:01:37.240 --> 00:01:38.840
 And the trigger warning is,

00:01:38.939 --> 00:01:40.140
 some of you might have noticed,

00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:41.460
 if you're familiar with the fact

00:01:41.460 --> 00:01:43.000
 that we preach through books of the Bible

00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:45.340
 and we're preaching through Mark's Gospel,

00:01:45.460 --> 00:01:47.019
 an ancient biography of Jesus,

00:01:47.019 --> 00:01:49.420
 Jesus talks about money.

00:01:49.819 --> 00:01:51.259
 So we're going to talk about money.

00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:56.799
 And that is probably one of the least popular things

00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:57.599
 to talk about.

00:01:58.359 --> 00:02:00.379
 And if you're here online,

00:02:00.500 --> 00:02:00.819
 you're thinking,

00:02:00.979 --> 00:02:01.780
 oh, good grief,

00:02:01.859 --> 00:02:02.959
 they're going to talk about money.

00:02:03.519 --> 00:02:05.579
 Maybe some of you are thinking about the same thing.

00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:06.899
 But Jesus talks about it.

00:02:06.900 --> 00:02:07.980
 And, you know, really,

00:02:08.379 --> 00:02:10.020
 if you think about it for a second,

00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:14.819
 for us who are followers of Jesus,

00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:16.400
 the question is,

00:02:16.480 --> 00:02:17.800
 what does it mean to follow Jesus

00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:19.379
 in a world where there is money?

00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:22.240
 And what does it mean to follow Jesus

00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:25.560
 in a world where money is very, very, very, very important?

00:02:26.500 --> 00:02:28.560
 What does it mean to follow Jesus

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:30.500
 in a world where money is desired

00:02:30.500 --> 00:02:32.439
 and we feel anxious about it?

00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:34.579
 What does it mean to follow Jesus

00:02:34.579 --> 00:02:36.579
 and trust him as our Savior and Lord

00:02:36.579 --> 00:02:37.579
 in such a world?

00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:39.759
 And so while on one hand

00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:41.419
 it might seem like a scary topic,

00:02:42.539 --> 00:02:44.719
 probably some of you have heard me say it before,

00:02:44.859 --> 00:02:47.199
 the thing which is so shocking about the Bible

00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:49.539
 isn't that it's like a hallmark,

00:02:49.740 --> 00:02:51.020
 unrealistic movie,

00:02:51.340 --> 00:02:53.259
 but the problem we have with the Bible

00:02:53.259 --> 00:02:55.199
 is that it's so deeply realistic

00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:58.120
 that it talks about real life,

00:02:58.340 --> 00:02:59.819
 it talks about suffering,

00:02:59.819 --> 00:03:00.939
 and it talks about,

00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:03.060
 in fact today we're not only going to talk about that,

00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:04.680
 it talks about hypocrisy,

00:03:04.819 --> 00:03:06.959
 it talks about climbing the greasy pole

00:03:06.959 --> 00:03:09.519
 and stepping on others to climb the greasy pole,

00:03:10.099 --> 00:03:12.699
 it talks about these profound things

00:03:12.699 --> 00:03:14.340
 that make up our day-to-day life

00:03:14.340 --> 00:03:15.959
 and we get a bit shocked,

00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:18.620
 thinking we'll maybe just get

00:03:18.620 --> 00:03:20.479
 a couple of little pleasing quotes

00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:22.180
 to discover that it talks about

00:03:22.180 --> 00:03:24.519
 what it really is like to live.

00:03:25.340 --> 00:03:27.060
 So we're going to look at that

00:03:27.060 --> 00:03:29.180
 because we're looking at what the Bible says,

00:03:29.180 --> 00:03:30.379
 but we have to get to,

00:03:30.500 --> 00:03:32.099
 there's two other little short stories

00:03:32.099 --> 00:03:33.219
 that all linked

00:03:33.219 --> 00:03:34.960
 that we have to look at first.

00:03:35.040 --> 00:03:36.140
 So if you have your Bibles,

00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:38.379
 turn in them to Mark chapter 12,

00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:40.840
 verses 35 and following,

00:03:41.460 --> 00:03:43.060
 and if you're using these little booklets,

00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:44.740
 it's on page 78,

00:03:44.980 --> 00:03:46.040
 Mark chapter 12,

00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:48.240
 verses 35 to 44,

00:03:49.020 --> 00:03:52.420
 and here's what is happening.

00:03:52.540 --> 00:03:53.960
 And just one of the things to remember

00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:55.020
 as we read this

00:03:55.020 --> 00:03:58.880
 is that even though if you look at this,

00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:00.780
 you have the whole book

00:04:00.780 --> 00:04:02.820
 with a little study page on the side,

00:04:02.920 --> 00:04:04.960
 there's still a fair amount of pages left in it,

00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:06.840
 but what's happening here

00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:08.700
 is just happening maybe two days

00:04:08.700 --> 00:04:10.600
 before Jesus is dying on the cross.

00:04:11.180 --> 00:04:12.719
 So when you're reading this,

00:04:12.760 --> 00:04:14.140
 you need to keep this in mind.

00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:16.319
 Jesus knows that he's going to die on the cross.

00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:18.060
 He's told his disciples

00:04:18.060 --> 00:04:19.340
 he's going to die on the cross

00:04:19.340 --> 00:04:20.439
 and rise from the dead.

00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:22.019
 They don't believe him.

00:04:22.579 --> 00:04:23.560
 I don't know what they think.

00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:25.839
 They think he's being metaphorical

00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:27.740
 or poetical or something.

00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:28.279
 Who knows?

00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:29.680
 But they don't believe him.

00:04:29.779 --> 00:04:31.819
 Nobody believes he's going to die on the cross.

00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:34.959
 His enemies are plotting his death upon the cross

00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:37.100
 and he knows he's going to rise from the dead.

00:04:37.220 --> 00:04:38.680
 And so all of these words,

00:04:38.860 --> 00:04:41.139
 you need to hear them remembering

00:04:41.139 --> 00:04:42.659
 that that's what Jesus knows

00:04:42.659 --> 00:04:45.000
 and also must be the,

00:04:45.560 --> 00:04:46.259
 you know, for some of you

00:04:46.259 --> 00:04:48.360
 who have really good imaginations,

00:04:48.860 --> 00:04:49.879
 I'm not one of you,

00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:53.219
 the emotional shock.

00:04:53.699 --> 00:04:55.560
 And then even just thinking back

00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:56.339
 as the disciples,

00:04:56.500 --> 00:04:58.680
 they go through the shock of seeing Jesus die.

00:04:59.180 --> 00:05:01.620
 They see the shock of the blood

00:05:01.620 --> 00:05:02.740
 coming out of his side,

00:05:02.860 --> 00:05:06.699
 the shock that he's covered in spices,

00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:08.800
 the shock that he's buried in a tomb.

00:05:09.259 --> 00:05:12.139
 And then the huge shock three days later

00:05:12.139 --> 00:05:13.519
 when the tomb is empty

00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:15.560
 and the grave cloths are there

00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:17.399
 and the stone is rolled away

00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:18.959
 and they can't find the body

00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:20.060
 and he appears alive

00:05:20.060 --> 00:05:22.139
 and they now start to think back

00:05:22.139 --> 00:05:24.019
 to all of these things that he had said

00:05:24.019 --> 00:05:27.399
 in the days preceding his death upon the cross

00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:28.139
 and his resurrection.

00:05:28.359 --> 00:05:29.519
 That's how we have to amend

00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:31.259
 and enter into this

00:05:31.259 --> 00:05:33.519
 imaginatively and emotionally.

00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:35.379
 And if we do that,

00:05:35.459 --> 00:05:36.319
 we start to see

00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:39.099
 the profound beauty of the text,

00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:40.439
 that the way that it,

00:05:40.819 --> 00:05:41.039
 you know,

00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:42.919
 those who've been Christians for a long time

00:05:42.919 --> 00:05:44.579
 and the gospel becomes real to their heart,

00:05:44.579 --> 00:05:47.719
 it's that there's a deep emotional satisfaction

00:05:47.719 --> 00:05:48.979
 with the gospel

00:05:48.979 --> 00:05:52.599
 that grows as you become more,

00:05:53.039 --> 00:05:55.459
 as the gospel becomes more real to your heart

00:05:55.459 --> 00:05:57.300
 because there's this deep resonance

00:05:57.300 --> 00:05:59.139
 with our deep longings and yearnings

00:05:59.139 --> 00:06:01.879
 and the gospel has this profound ability

00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:04.919
 to form us in ways that are for our good.

00:06:05.180 --> 00:06:07.699
 This, what Jesus teaches

00:06:07.699 --> 00:06:09.099
 and what he does,

00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:10.759
 well, let's look.

00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:13.120
 So it begins in a bit of an odd way

00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:14.680
 and for some people,

00:06:14.740 --> 00:06:16.759
 it just seems like he's playing a bit of a word game.

00:06:17.180 --> 00:06:18.339
 But look what happens first.

00:06:18.899 --> 00:06:21.420
 Mark chapter 12, verse 35.

00:06:21.819 --> 00:06:23.319
 And as Jesus taught in the temple,

00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:23.879
 he said,

00:06:24.420 --> 00:06:27.259
 how can the scribes say that the Christ

00:06:27.259 --> 00:06:28.779
 is the son of David?

00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:30.319
 Now, once again,

00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:31.439
 some of you might remember,

00:06:31.539 --> 00:06:32.319
 what's a scribe?

00:06:32.819 --> 00:06:34.719
 A scribe, if you go back in time,

00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:36.360
 or sorry, if you imagine today,

00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:37.639
 imagine one person

00:06:37.639 --> 00:06:38.659
 or a group of people

00:06:38.660 --> 00:06:40.780
 who are three different things in our society.

00:06:40.860 --> 00:06:41.960
 A public intellectual,

00:06:42.980 --> 00:06:44.300
 a legal scholar,

00:06:44.920 --> 00:06:46.160
 and then think of somebody

00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:48.100
 who's like an assistant deputy minister

00:06:48.100 --> 00:06:49.740
 or a deputy minister in the government

00:06:49.740 --> 00:06:51.020
 and is really competent

00:06:51.020 --> 00:06:54.520
 and she just knows how things work

00:06:54.520 --> 00:06:55.540
 in the government,

00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:56.480
 in the real world.

00:06:56.700 --> 00:06:58.379
 And so when you see scribe,

00:06:58.480 --> 00:06:58.980
 think of that.

00:06:59.100 --> 00:07:01.020
 Somebody who knows how the world works,

00:07:01.660 --> 00:07:03.620
 how bureaucracies and systems

00:07:03.620 --> 00:07:05.200
 and the culture works.

00:07:05.620 --> 00:07:07.120
 Somebody who's a public intellectual

00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:08.699
 and somebody who's a legal scholar.

00:07:08.819 --> 00:07:10.340
 That's what a scribe is, okay?

00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:12.120
 And they're experts in knowing

00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:14.100
 what our Jewish friends call the Tanakh

00:07:14.100 --> 00:07:14.959
 and what we would call

00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:16.959
 the Old Testament in particular.

00:07:18.040 --> 00:07:20.240
 And so one of the things

00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:21.340
 which is interesting here

00:07:21.340 --> 00:07:23.220
 is that Jesus asks a question

00:07:23.220 --> 00:07:25.959
 and this is easy for us to miss

00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:27.600
 the significance of this.

00:07:28.280 --> 00:07:29.720
 On one hand, it's just fair.

00:07:30.459 --> 00:07:31.500
 Just before this,

00:07:32.100 --> 00:07:34.540
 people have been asking him hostile questions

00:07:34.540 --> 00:07:36.840
 and then just immediately before this

00:07:36.840 --> 00:07:38.180
 there was a friendly question.

00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:40.080
 But here's the thing,

00:07:40.180 --> 00:07:41.740
 if you think about it for a second,

00:07:43.180 --> 00:07:46.220
 if there really is a triune God

00:07:46.220 --> 00:07:47.720
 that actually does exist

00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:52.160
 and if that triune God does exist

00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:54.420
 and has created and sustained all things,

00:07:55.100 --> 00:07:56.759
 and many here would of course

00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:57.820
 believe and accept that,

00:07:57.920 --> 00:07:59.240
 but for some of you that would be

00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:00.780
 maybe some of you watching

00:08:00.780 --> 00:08:01.560
 or some of you here,

00:08:01.660 --> 00:08:02.060
 that's like,

00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:03.600
 I don't know if I believe that,

00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:04.320
 that's fine,

00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:04.860
 but if,

00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:06.020
 imagine for a second

00:08:06.020 --> 00:08:07.300
 that there is really in fact

00:08:07.300 --> 00:08:08.460
 the triune God

00:08:08.460 --> 00:08:09.460
 who does exist,

00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:10.379
 who's created everything,

00:08:10.580 --> 00:08:11.520
 sustains all things,

00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:12.879
 is sovereign over all things.

00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.560
 Our mental and spiritual

00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:19.080
 and emotional and aesthetic

00:08:19.080 --> 00:08:22.820
 and cultural and intellectual categories

00:08:22.820 --> 00:08:24.920
 couldn't grasp him.

00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:27.540
 If you think about it for a second,

00:08:27.540 --> 00:08:29.319
 if my,

00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:33.639
 if the categories of thought

00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:35.259
 in Ottawa in 2022,

00:08:36.379 --> 00:08:37.960
 the aesthetic and spiritual

00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:39.399
 and emotional and intellectual

00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:40.259
 and philosophical

00:08:40.259 --> 00:08:41.539
 and scientific categories,

00:08:41.659 --> 00:08:43.039
 if our categories were adequate

00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:44.580
 to completely understand

00:08:44.580 --> 00:08:45.800
 such a God,

00:08:45.879 --> 00:08:47.460
 that would mean we were bigger than God,

00:08:47.899 --> 00:08:50.480
 which means that God doesn't exist.

00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.759
 And so one of the things

00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:53.560
 which is important

00:08:53.560 --> 00:08:54.980
 when Jesus asks questions

00:08:54.980 --> 00:08:55.879
 in the Gospels

00:08:55.879 --> 00:08:57.620
 is you see the questions

00:08:57.620 --> 00:08:58.779
 of his critics

00:08:58.779 --> 00:09:00.139
 and even the questions

00:09:00.139 --> 00:09:00.940
 of the seekers

00:09:00.940 --> 00:09:02.259
 aren't going to be adequate

00:09:02.259 --> 00:09:03.940
 to understand who he is.

00:09:04.940 --> 00:09:06.460
 He needs to challenge

00:09:06.460 --> 00:09:08.340
 my categories.

00:09:08.539 --> 00:09:09.680
 He needs to challenge

00:09:09.680 --> 00:09:11.120
 your categories.

00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:12.740
 And actually,

00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:14.180
 as we see just in a moment,

00:09:14.259 --> 00:09:15.240
 if you think about it for a second,

00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:15.740
 what he's doing

00:09:15.740 --> 00:09:16.779
 is a profound challenge

00:09:16.779 --> 00:09:17.600
 of our categories

00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:19.240
 because in our categories,

00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:20.320
 if such a God exists,

00:09:20.460 --> 00:09:22.460
 we would set down criteria

00:09:22.460 --> 00:09:23.920
 by which he should relate

00:09:23.920 --> 00:09:24.540
 to the world.

00:09:24.620 --> 00:09:25.800
 If you think about it for a second,

00:09:26.340 --> 00:09:26.800
 you know,

00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:27.980
 he should be inclusive.

00:09:28.980 --> 00:09:29.899
 And in fact,

00:09:29.940 --> 00:09:30.399
 the matter is,

00:09:30.440 --> 00:09:31.139
 is no, no, no, no, no,

00:09:31.139 --> 00:09:32.460
 don't do things in history.

00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:34.460
 They should do things,

00:09:34.540 --> 00:09:34.740
 God,

00:09:34.820 --> 00:09:35.840
 you should reveal yourself

00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:37.040
 at an emotional level

00:09:37.040 --> 00:09:39.680
 or somewhere inside each of us

00:09:39.680 --> 00:09:40.300
 in some way,

00:09:40.399 --> 00:09:41.019
 which is sort of,

00:09:41.060 --> 00:09:41.360
 I don't know,

00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:43.600
 democratic and equitable,

00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.060
 but it shouldn't be in history

00:09:45.060 --> 00:09:46.320
 and it shouldn't be in the past

00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:47.420
 and good grief,

00:09:47.419 --> 00:09:48.939
 it shouldn't be a Jewish guy.

00:09:49.059 --> 00:09:49.279
 I mean,

00:09:49.479 --> 00:09:50.959
 what's going on with that?

00:09:51.219 --> 00:09:52.899
 And we'd have all of our criteria

00:09:52.899 --> 00:09:54.959
 and it should be connected,

00:09:55.199 --> 00:09:56.599
 your revelation about yourself

00:09:56.599 --> 00:09:57.779
 should be connected to us

00:09:57.779 --> 00:09:58.639
 in such a way

00:09:58.639 --> 00:09:59.500
 that it's going to help me

00:09:59.500 --> 00:10:00.500
 to thrive

00:10:00.500 --> 00:10:01.679
 and be the best me that I,

00:10:01.839 --> 00:10:03.199
 we'd have all our criteria.

00:10:04.419 --> 00:10:06.120
 And we put these criteria,

00:10:07.579 --> 00:10:07.860
 see,

00:10:07.959 --> 00:10:09.079
 what Jesus is doing here,

00:10:09.099 --> 00:10:10.500
 he's challenging our criteria.

00:10:10.500 --> 00:10:17.379
 and that has to be the case

00:10:17.379 --> 00:10:18.720
 if there is in fact a God

00:10:18.720 --> 00:10:20.039
 like Jesus describes.

00:10:21.320 --> 00:10:23.899
 If our criteria aren't challenged,

00:10:24.899 --> 00:10:26.480
 then we're God.

00:10:28.860 --> 00:10:29.580
 We're God.

00:10:30.740 --> 00:10:31.779
 Not only we're God,

00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:33.320
 our culture is God

00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:34.740
 and we can look down our noses

00:10:34.740 --> 00:10:35.519
 at other cultures

00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:36.720
 who have different criteria

00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:37.519
 because, you know,

00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:37.820
 frankly,

00:10:37.820 --> 00:10:39.100
 we have the God criteria.

00:10:40.100 --> 00:10:41.860
 So that's one of the subtle things

00:10:41.860 --> 00:10:42.500
 which is going on

00:10:42.500 --> 00:10:43.160
 in this question.

00:10:43.280 --> 00:10:44.460
 All the times in the Bible

00:10:44.460 --> 00:10:46.320
 that in the ancient biographies

00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:46.780
 of Jesus,

00:10:46.900 --> 00:10:49.160
 when Jesus asks a question

00:10:49.160 --> 00:10:50.900
 and when he raises issues

00:10:50.900 --> 00:10:52.460
 that we feel uncomfortable with,

00:10:52.860 --> 00:10:55.420
 he's challenging our criteria,

00:10:55.640 --> 00:10:56.600
 but that's exactly

00:10:56.600 --> 00:10:57.940
 what should be happening

00:10:57.940 --> 00:10:59.040
 if there is in fact

00:10:59.040 --> 00:11:00.140
 a God that's real.

00:11:00.139 --> 00:11:02.460
 So,

00:11:02.740 --> 00:11:04.439
 read verse 35 again

00:11:04.439 --> 00:11:05.439
 and as Jesus taught

00:11:05.439 --> 00:11:05.860
 in the temple,

00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:06.199
 he said,

00:11:06.299 --> 00:11:07.059
 how can the scribes

00:11:07.059 --> 00:11:07.960
 say that the Christ,

00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:08.899
 in other words,

00:11:08.980 --> 00:11:10.199
 that's one way of saying

00:11:10.199 --> 00:11:10.799
 the Messiah,

00:11:11.419 --> 00:11:12.600
 is the son of David

00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:15.139
 and in that time period

00:11:15.139 --> 00:11:16.000
 it was recognized

00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:17.600
 that when the Messiah came,

00:11:18.179 --> 00:11:19.220
 he would be,

00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:19.919
 in a sense,

00:11:19.980 --> 00:11:20.679
 in the lineage,

00:11:20.819 --> 00:11:22.299
 the human lineage of David

00:11:22.299 --> 00:11:23.740
 that you would be able

00:11:23.740 --> 00:11:24.600
 to trace back

00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:26.460
 whom his dad was

00:11:26.460 --> 00:11:27.500
 or his mom was

00:11:27.500 --> 00:11:29.100
 and trace them back

00:11:29.100 --> 00:11:29.940
 and back and back

00:11:29.940 --> 00:11:30.360
 and back

00:11:30.360 --> 00:11:31.080
 and it would go

00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:31.799
 all the way back,

00:11:31.940 --> 00:11:32.159
 you know,

00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:34.179
 dad to baby,

00:11:34.500 --> 00:11:34.639
 you know,

00:11:34.659 --> 00:11:35.320
 dad to baby,

00:11:35.460 --> 00:11:35.580
 you know,

00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:36.419
 parents to baby,

00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:37.799
 all the way back to David

00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:38.539
 and so that was

00:11:38.539 --> 00:11:39.259
 one of his titles

00:11:39.259 --> 00:11:41.200
 and so Jesus says,

00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:41.480
 okay,

00:11:41.580 --> 00:11:42.559
 it's accepted

00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:44.019
 that he's going to be human

00:11:44.019 --> 00:11:45.080
 and he's going to be

00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:46.460
 in the lineage of David.

00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:47.460
 We all accept that

00:11:47.460 --> 00:11:48.460
 and then what he does

00:11:48.460 --> 00:11:50.539
 is he says these two things.

00:11:50.620 --> 00:11:50.919
 He says,

00:11:51.039 --> 00:11:51.720
 verse 36,

00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:52.620
 David,

00:11:52.820 --> 00:11:53.580
 that's King David,

00:11:53.700 --> 00:11:54.240
 himself,

00:11:55.340 --> 00:11:56.360
 in the Holy Spirit

00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:57.039
 declared,

00:11:57.500 --> 00:11:58.860
 and now Jesus

00:11:58.860 --> 00:11:59.620
 is going to quote

00:11:59.620 --> 00:12:01.399
 what we now know of

00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:02.500
 as Psalm 110,

00:12:02.740 --> 00:12:03.299
 verse 1.

00:12:04.820 --> 00:12:07.179
 The Lord said to my Lord,

00:12:07.580 --> 00:12:08.840
 sit at my right hand

00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:09.940
 until I put your enemies

00:12:09.940 --> 00:12:10.720
 under your feet.

00:12:11.620 --> 00:12:11.840
 Now,

00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:14.740
 King David calls his son

00:12:14.740 --> 00:12:15.659
 Lord,

00:12:15.659 --> 00:12:17.120
 so how is he his son?

00:12:18.059 --> 00:12:19.019
 And the great throng

00:12:19.019 --> 00:12:19.720
 heard him gladly.

00:12:19.879 --> 00:12:19.960
 Now,

00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:21.000
 just a couple of things

00:12:21.000 --> 00:12:21.799
 to sort of help us

00:12:21.799 --> 00:12:22.259
 to understand

00:12:22.259 --> 00:12:23.080
 what's going on here.

00:12:23.659 --> 00:12:25.100
 There's no way in English

00:12:25.100 --> 00:12:26.559
 to translate this

00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:28.079
 to capture what's going on.

00:12:28.199 --> 00:12:28.479
 It's just,

00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:30.019
 it's impossible to translate.

00:12:30.819 --> 00:12:31.739
 And that's why you need

00:12:31.739 --> 00:12:33.259
 to have gatherings like this

00:12:33.259 --> 00:12:34.379
 where we talk about it.

00:12:35.079 --> 00:12:35.919
 The first thing here,

00:12:35.979 --> 00:12:36.299
 by the way,

00:12:36.359 --> 00:12:37.039
 is

00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:40.619
 like,

00:12:41.419 --> 00:12:42.579
 true confessions,

00:12:42.580 --> 00:12:45.040
 and this isn't like coming out,

00:12:45.100 --> 00:12:46.000
 but for maybe some of you

00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:46.400
 who are guests

00:12:46.400 --> 00:12:47.200
 or some of you online,

00:12:48.560 --> 00:12:51.060
 I believe that,

00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:52.740
 on one hand,

00:12:52.800 --> 00:12:54.020
 I believe this is a work

00:12:54.020 --> 00:12:55.200
 of accurate history,

00:12:55.860 --> 00:12:57.240
 that when we read Mark,

00:12:57.620 --> 00:12:58.460
 we're reading

00:12:58.460 --> 00:13:01.460
 an accurate historical account

00:13:01.460 --> 00:13:02.560
 of things which happened

00:13:02.560 --> 00:13:03.320
 in the past.

00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:05.500
 I also believe

00:13:05.500 --> 00:13:06.840
 that every word

00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:07.640
 which is there

00:13:07.640 --> 00:13:08.300
 is the word

00:13:08.300 --> 00:13:09.460
 that God wanted there.

00:13:11.920 --> 00:13:12.440
 Now,

00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:13.760
 I don't believe this

00:13:13.760 --> 00:13:16.220
 because I'm an uneducated,

00:13:16.620 --> 00:13:17.340
 narrow-minded,

00:13:17.820 --> 00:13:18.220
 bigoted,

00:13:18.860 --> 00:13:19.680
 modernist

00:13:19.680 --> 00:13:20.700
 whose mind needs

00:13:20.700 --> 00:13:22.140
 to be decolonized.

00:13:23.840 --> 00:13:24.400
 Although,

00:13:24.500 --> 00:13:25.020
 maybe I am

00:13:25.020 --> 00:13:26.000
 all of those things.

00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:28.240
 I believe it

00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:30.040
 because I trust Jesus

00:13:30.040 --> 00:13:31.220
 as my Savior and Lord,

00:13:31.220 --> 00:13:32.139
 and that's what Jesus

00:13:32.139 --> 00:13:32.940
 just taught us

00:13:32.940 --> 00:13:34.019
 with his question.

00:13:34.779 --> 00:13:35.340
 Did you notice

00:13:35.340 --> 00:13:35.840
 what he says?

00:13:35.899 --> 00:13:37.220
 Look back at verse 35.

00:13:38.259 --> 00:13:38.700
 David,

00:13:38.920 --> 00:13:39.860
 so he's acknowledging

00:13:39.860 --> 00:13:40.580
 that David

00:13:40.580 --> 00:13:42.580
 wrote Psalm 110,

00:13:42.800 --> 00:13:43.360
 verse 1,

00:13:43.740 --> 00:13:44.879
 but he also said

00:13:44.879 --> 00:13:46.360
 that David wrote it

00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:47.680
 in the Holy Spirit.

00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:48.899
 In other words,

00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:49.920
 when you read,

00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:52.460
 the Lord said to my Lord,

00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:53.639
 sit at my right hand

00:13:53.639 --> 00:13:54.800
 until I put your enemies

00:13:54.800 --> 00:13:55.680
 under your feet,

00:13:55.820 --> 00:13:57.100
 you are hearing

00:13:57.100 --> 00:13:58.700
 the Holy Spirit

00:13:58.700 --> 00:14:00.620
 speak words

00:14:00.620 --> 00:14:04.159
 to you and me.

00:14:06.299 --> 00:14:06.779
 Unworthy,

00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:10.120
 ungrateful,

00:14:11.700 --> 00:14:12.600
 presumptuous,

00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:13.299
 ignorant,

00:14:13.740 --> 00:14:14.159
 sinful,

00:14:14.440 --> 00:14:14.700
 foolish,

00:14:14.940 --> 00:14:15.740
 all those things

00:14:15.740 --> 00:14:16.340
 that we are,

00:14:17.100 --> 00:14:17.940
 people who are going

00:14:17.940 --> 00:14:18.919
 to die someday.

00:14:19.480 --> 00:14:21.159
 This is the Holy Spirit

00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:21.860
 speaking

00:14:21.860 --> 00:14:23.399
 word by word.

00:14:23.580 --> 00:14:24.340
 That's what Jesus

00:14:24.340 --> 00:14:25.500
 is just telling us.

00:14:26.700 --> 00:14:27.580
 They're the real words

00:14:27.580 --> 00:14:28.100
 of David,

00:14:28.100 --> 00:14:29.820
 but the Holy Spirit

00:14:29.820 --> 00:14:31.060
 superintended them

00:14:31.060 --> 00:14:32.259
 so that the very words

00:14:32.259 --> 00:14:33.840
 that the Father,

00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:34.240
 the Son,

00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:34.960
 and the Holy Spirit

00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:36.300
 wanted were communicated

00:14:36.300 --> 00:14:37.399
 and written down to us.

00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:39.680
 You see,

00:14:39.740 --> 00:14:40.560
 that's one of the reasons

00:14:40.560 --> 00:14:43.080
 why if you're a guest

00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:44.259
 or you're watching online

00:14:44.259 --> 00:14:45.159
 and you're curious,

00:14:45.379 --> 00:14:46.320
 that's one of the reasons.

00:14:46.680 --> 00:14:46.899
 Like,

00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:48.040
 if in fact it really

00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:48.779
 is the case

00:14:48.779 --> 00:14:49.959
 that the triune God,

00:14:50.059 --> 00:14:51.219
 the creator and sustainer

00:14:51.219 --> 00:14:52.599
 of the entire universe,

00:14:53.079 --> 00:14:53.919
 the one who is sovereign

00:14:53.919 --> 00:14:55.159
 over the entire universe,

00:14:55.480 --> 00:14:57.159
 if he really has spoken,

00:14:57.620 --> 00:14:58.779
 doesn't it make sense

00:14:58.779 --> 00:14:59.579
 to want to sit

00:14:59.579 --> 00:15:00.079
 and listen?

00:15:01.819 --> 00:15:02.699
 And that's why

00:15:02.699 --> 00:15:03.399
 it's part of

00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:04.659
 a worship service

00:15:04.659 --> 00:15:05.480
 in a church,

00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:06.199
 not only the reading

00:15:06.199 --> 00:15:06.679
 of the scripture,

00:15:06.839 --> 00:15:08.319
 but us trying to enter

00:15:08.319 --> 00:15:08.759
 into it

00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:10.019
 and meditate upon it

00:15:10.019 --> 00:15:10.799
 and hear it speak

00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:11.839
 directly to us.

00:15:13.139 --> 00:15:14.480
 But here's the other thing

00:15:14.480 --> 00:15:15.159
 which is going on

00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:15.740
 in the text.

00:15:16.740 --> 00:15:18.120
 In the original Hebrew,

00:15:19.259 --> 00:15:19.699
 and all of,

00:15:19.839 --> 00:15:20.179
 not all,

00:15:20.299 --> 00:15:21.360
 but most of the hearers

00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:22.240
 would have understood this

00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:23.339
 when Jesus was speaking.

00:15:23.799 --> 00:15:24.919
 What he says is this.

00:15:25.179 --> 00:15:26.620
 Look at verse 36.

00:15:26.719 --> 00:15:27.899
 He's quoting Psalm 110.

00:15:28.899 --> 00:15:32.159
 The Yahweh said to my Adonai,

00:15:32.740 --> 00:15:34.019
 sit at my right hand

00:15:34.019 --> 00:15:35.339
 until I put your enemies

00:15:35.339 --> 00:15:36.120
 under your feet.

00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:38.819
 David himself calls him Adonai,

00:15:39.459 --> 00:15:40.879
 so how is he his son?

00:15:41.659 --> 00:15:42.879
 And the throng heard him greatly.

00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:44.100
 Now Yahweh

00:15:44.100 --> 00:15:46.100
 is the ancient Jewish name,

00:15:46.279 --> 00:15:47.639
 a covenant name for God.

00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:49.820
 He is the true God

00:15:49.820 --> 00:15:50.440
 that exists

00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:51.860
 that's over all things

00:15:51.860 --> 00:15:53.060
 and he is the God

00:15:53.060 --> 00:15:54.740
 who is in a covenant relationship.

00:15:55.320 --> 00:15:56.340
 A covenant relationship

00:15:56.340 --> 00:15:57.540
 is sort of like a marriage

00:15:57.540 --> 00:15:58.879
 with his people.

00:15:59.639 --> 00:16:01.180
 And maybe another way

00:16:01.180 --> 00:16:01.860
 to put it is

00:16:01.860 --> 00:16:03.580
 every one of my kids

00:16:03.580 --> 00:16:04.600
 at some point in time

00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:05.240
 in their life,

00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:06.639
 they would call me George.

00:16:07.300 --> 00:16:09.700
 And I would correct them

00:16:09.700 --> 00:16:10.440
 and say there's

00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:11.560
 eight billion people

00:16:11.560 --> 00:16:12.560
 in the world

00:16:12.560 --> 00:16:13.759
 who can call me George.

00:16:13.759 --> 00:16:15.019
 There's only nine

00:16:15.019 --> 00:16:16.519
 who can call me Dad.

00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:18.240
 And you're one of them.

00:16:18.980 --> 00:16:19.879
 So call me Dad.

00:16:21.620 --> 00:16:23.340
 It's a special covenant name.

00:16:24.679 --> 00:16:26.279
 And so there's all sorts of ways

00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:27.360
 to talk about God

00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:28.299
 and the high God,

00:16:28.460 --> 00:16:29.600
 but for the Jewish people,

00:16:29.740 --> 00:16:30.360
 it's Yahweh.

00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:31.419
 And that became

00:16:31.419 --> 00:16:32.480
 such a special name

00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:33.379
 that we don't even know

00:16:33.379 --> 00:16:34.080
 if we're pronouncing

00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:35.220
 the name correctly now

00:16:35.220 --> 00:16:37.559
 because that's a whole other

00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:38.220
 long story.

00:16:38.539 --> 00:16:39.480
 But the other thing is

00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:40.399
 that in the Old Testament,

00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:41.299
 one of the most other

00:16:41.299 --> 00:16:42.639
 common names for God

00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:43.360
 was Adonai.

00:16:44.620 --> 00:16:45.959
 And it means most high,

00:16:46.220 --> 00:16:47.360
 the most high ruler,

00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:49.600
 the highest of all gods.

00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:52.519
 If you went to the pagan Romans,

00:16:52.779 --> 00:16:55.179
 if you went to the pagan Greeks

00:16:55.179 --> 00:16:56.019
 and they believe in,

00:16:56.039 --> 00:16:56.419
 I don't know,

00:16:56.559 --> 00:16:58.720
 50, 100, 200, 300 gods,

00:16:58.779 --> 00:16:59.639
 and if they have a sense

00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:00.860
 that there might be a high God,

00:17:01.259 --> 00:17:03.340
 when a Jewish person said Adonai,

00:17:03.459 --> 00:17:04.099
 they would mean

00:17:04.099 --> 00:17:05.460
 above all gods,

00:17:05.740 --> 00:17:07.460
 above all gods and goddesses

00:17:07.460 --> 00:17:08.559
 that you think you know,

00:17:08.819 --> 00:17:10.519
 above all of them is Adonai.

00:17:12.600 --> 00:17:13.880
 And so that's what's going on

00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:14.380
 in the text.

00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:15.460
 And Jesus is just pointing out

00:17:15.460 --> 00:17:16.779
 this is a really weird thing.

00:17:17.340 --> 00:17:18.920
 Yahweh says to Adonai,

00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:21.799
 but David also knows,

00:17:22.019 --> 00:17:24.180
 we all know that the Messiah,

00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:25.860
 everybody knew this was

00:17:25.860 --> 00:17:27.160
 a messianic text,

00:17:27.240 --> 00:17:28.680
 that the Messiah was going to come,

00:17:28.759 --> 00:17:29.720
 but now, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:31.519
 the Messiah is called Adonai?

00:17:32.019 --> 00:17:34.059
 And how can the Messiah

00:17:34.059 --> 00:17:35.799
 be both a human being

00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:36.839
 and be God?

00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:38.539
 And Jesus is posing

00:17:38.539 --> 00:17:39.460
 a riddle to them,

00:17:39.559 --> 00:17:41.419
 a riddle that he himself

00:17:41.419 --> 00:17:42.659
 would show that he is

00:17:42.659 --> 00:17:43.839
 the answer to the riddle,

00:17:44.359 --> 00:17:46.579
 because he's ultimately

00:17:46.579 --> 00:17:47.779
 referring to himself.

00:17:48.500 --> 00:17:49.700
 And this is going to become

00:17:49.700 --> 00:17:50.599
 very important

00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:51.680
 when we talk about money

00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:52.839
 and when we talk about

00:17:52.839 --> 00:17:54.419
 climbing the greasy pole

00:17:54.419 --> 00:17:55.599
 and stepping on people,

00:17:55.859 --> 00:17:57.559
 because what Jesus is saying here,

00:17:57.940 --> 00:17:58.480
 I mean, part of,

00:17:58.559 --> 00:17:59.740
 why is it that I as a,

00:17:59.799 --> 00:18:00.879
 I mean, there's all sorts of reasons

00:18:00.879 --> 00:18:01.720
 why I as a Christian

00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:02.680
 believe that Jesus,

00:18:03.139 --> 00:18:04.240
 in fact, is the Messiah,

00:18:04.359 --> 00:18:05.579
 that he is both fully human

00:18:05.579 --> 00:18:06.579
 and fully God,

00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:08.279
 but not two different beings,

00:18:08.379 --> 00:18:09.220
 but one person,

00:18:09.399 --> 00:18:10.899
 Jesus, the Christ,

00:18:11.259 --> 00:18:12.259
 the Son of God,

00:18:12.699 --> 00:18:13.720
 the second person

00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:14.319
 of the Trinity,

00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:16.199
 who set aside his glory

00:18:16.199 --> 00:18:17.819
 and divine prerogatives

00:18:17.819 --> 00:18:19.279
 and his appearance of God

00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:19.960
 as God,

00:18:20.039 --> 00:18:20.939
 and emptied himself

00:18:20.939 --> 00:18:22.659
 and takes the form

00:18:22.659 --> 00:18:23.240
 of a servant

00:18:23.240 --> 00:18:23.879
 and comes

00:18:23.879 --> 00:18:25.159
 and he becomes Emmanuel,

00:18:25.460 --> 00:18:26.699
 he comes and lives

00:18:26.699 --> 00:18:27.399
 amongst us

00:18:27.399 --> 00:18:28.519
 in all of our mess,

00:18:28.899 --> 00:18:30.000
 and he lives amongst us,

00:18:30.139 --> 00:18:31.379
 and what Jesus

00:18:31.379 --> 00:18:32.139
 is saying here,

00:18:32.259 --> 00:18:32.659
 just remember,

00:18:32.660 --> 00:18:33.600
 this is two days

00:18:33.600 --> 00:18:34.500
 before he dies

00:18:34.500 --> 00:18:35.140
 on the cross,

00:18:35.580 --> 00:18:36.880
 Jesus is telling them,

00:18:37.340 --> 00:18:38.600
 when you see me

00:18:38.600 --> 00:18:40.000
 hanging on the cross,

00:18:40.220 --> 00:18:41.880
 you are seeing Adonai

00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:43.400
 hanging on the cross,

00:18:43.660 --> 00:18:45.600
 that is who is dying,

00:18:46.600 --> 00:18:48.200
 you are seeing the Messiah,

00:18:48.360 --> 00:18:48.860
 the Christ,

00:18:49.200 --> 00:18:50.500
 you are seeing God

00:18:50.500 --> 00:18:52.720
 die on the cross,

00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:55.559
 and that is nonsense

00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:58.700
 to all human categories,

00:18:59.700 --> 00:19:03.279
 the prime minister

00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:04.160
 sends others

00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:05.940
 to go to die in war,

00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:07.819
 the king sends others

00:19:07.819 --> 00:19:10.420
 to go to die in war,

00:19:11.420 --> 00:19:15.559
 the prime minister,

00:19:15.740 --> 00:19:16.180
 the king,

00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:17.860
 are protected by others

00:19:17.860 --> 00:19:19.220
 at the cost of their life,

00:19:19.220 --> 00:19:21.860
 and Jesus is revealing

00:19:21.860 --> 00:19:24.660
 that all of those

00:19:24.660 --> 00:19:25.819
 depictions of God

00:19:25.819 --> 00:19:27.120
 that fit in our categories

00:19:27.120 --> 00:19:30.480
 are massively missing

00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:31.559
 the God

00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:33.200
 who actually does exist

00:19:33.200 --> 00:19:34.180
 because the God

00:19:34.180 --> 00:19:35.880
 who actually does exist

00:19:35.880 --> 00:19:37.100
 isn't the God

00:19:37.100 --> 00:19:38.039
 who sends others

00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:39.480
 to die for his glory,

00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:41.440
 but he is one

00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:43.380
 who dies for others

00:19:43.380 --> 00:19:45.420
 so they might be glorified.

00:19:47.019 --> 00:19:48.799
 He becomes rich,

00:19:49.220 --> 00:19:49.799
 that we,

00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:51.180
 through his poverty,

00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:52.059
 sorry,

00:19:52.140 --> 00:19:53.100
 he became poor

00:19:53.100 --> 00:19:53.759
 so that we,

00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:54.759
 through his poverty,

00:19:55.180 --> 00:19:56.180
 might become rich.

00:20:00.259 --> 00:20:01.620
 We'll see how it works out

00:20:01.620 --> 00:20:03.940
 in a very common human problem

00:20:03.940 --> 00:20:04.940
 which is described

00:20:04.940 --> 00:20:06.120
 immediately afterwards,

00:20:07.120 --> 00:20:08.059
 and it's actually,

00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:08.860
 as you look at these

00:20:08.860 --> 00:20:10.700
 two common human problems

00:20:10.700 --> 00:20:12.000
 that come right after this,

00:20:12.500 --> 00:20:14.160
 you start to get a sense

00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:17.319
 of the deep emotional power

00:20:17.319 --> 00:20:18.960
 once you come to accept

00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:20.519
 that Christ is in fact

00:20:20.519 --> 00:20:22.240
 the Savior and the Lord,

00:20:22.419 --> 00:20:24.139
 that the gospel is true,

00:20:24.279 --> 00:20:25.399
 that there is this profound

00:20:25.399 --> 00:20:26.139
 good news

00:20:26.139 --> 00:20:28.139
 that God loves you so much

00:20:28.139 --> 00:20:29.619
 that he himself

00:20:29.619 --> 00:20:30.439
 emptied himself

00:20:30.439 --> 00:20:31.679
 of all of his glory

00:20:31.679 --> 00:20:32.439
 and splendor

00:20:32.439 --> 00:20:33.519
 and divine prerogatives.

00:20:33.899 --> 00:20:34.659
 He emptied himself

00:20:34.659 --> 00:20:35.779
 of all of that

00:20:35.779 --> 00:20:37.079
 and emptied himself

00:20:37.079 --> 00:20:38.200
 of all of the praise

00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:39.220
 which was due with him,

00:20:39.319 --> 00:20:40.839
 and he left the safety

00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:42.000
 and the glory of heaven

00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:43.639
 to come and live amongst us

00:20:43.639 --> 00:20:45.299
 and experience human life

00:20:45.299 --> 00:20:46.500
 in all of its fullness,

00:20:46.859 --> 00:20:49.019
 and then out of love for you,

00:20:50.460 --> 00:20:52.740
 he dies in your place

00:20:52.740 --> 00:20:54.139
 and in your stead.

00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:56.700
 Out of love for you.

00:20:56.819 --> 00:20:58.839
 This is a story of one,

00:20:58.919 --> 00:20:59.599
 of two things.

00:20:59.899 --> 00:21:01.879
 Your need for salvation,

00:21:02.500 --> 00:21:05.119
 your potential doom

00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:07.119
 is vastly worse

00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:08.339
 than the worst

00:21:08.339 --> 00:21:10.079
 three o'clock in the morning

00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:11.940
 time you have ever had

00:21:11.940 --> 00:21:13.619
 when you wake up terribly anxious.

00:21:13.619 --> 00:21:15.139
 Your condition is actually

00:21:15.139 --> 00:21:16.319
 vastly worse.

00:21:16.779 --> 00:21:17.879
 But on the other hand,

00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:20.039
 you are vastly more loved

00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:21.859
 than you can possibly imagine.

00:21:22.879 --> 00:21:23.879
 And that is the news

00:21:23.879 --> 00:21:24.539
 of the gospel.

00:21:25.219 --> 00:21:27.819
 You are vastly more loved

00:21:27.819 --> 00:21:32.839
 than you can dare to dream.

00:21:34.699 --> 00:21:35.879
 Look how it works out

00:21:35.879 --> 00:21:36.339
 in this.

00:21:36.419 --> 00:21:37.099
 This is a problem

00:21:37.099 --> 00:21:37.859
 of appearances

00:21:37.859 --> 00:21:38.719
 and of climbing

00:21:38.719 --> 00:21:39.659
 the greasy pole

00:21:39.659 --> 00:21:41.059
 and of,

00:21:41.699 --> 00:21:42.939
 well, look what Jesus says,

00:21:42.940 --> 00:21:43.799
 verse 38.

00:21:44.080 --> 00:21:44.779
 And in his teaching,

00:21:44.860 --> 00:21:45.100
 he said,

00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:46.360
 beware of the scribes

00:21:46.360 --> 00:21:47.900
 who like to walk around

00:21:47.900 --> 00:21:48.920
 in long robes

00:21:48.920 --> 00:21:49.880
 and like greetings

00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:50.920
 in the marketplaces

00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:52.620
 and have the best seats

00:21:52.620 --> 00:21:53.259
 in the synagogue

00:21:53.259 --> 00:21:55.000
 and the places of honor

00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:55.640
 at feasts.

00:21:56.519 --> 00:21:57.299
 And then look at this

00:21:57.299 --> 00:21:58.519
 little neat little thing

00:21:58.519 --> 00:21:59.299
 he puts in,

00:21:59.759 --> 00:22:00.820
 who devour

00:22:00.820 --> 00:22:02.480
 widows' houses

00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:04.660
 and for a pretense

00:22:04.660 --> 00:22:07.100
 make long prayers.

00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:08.480
 And look at this.

00:22:08.500 --> 00:22:09.059
 This is really

00:22:09.059 --> 00:22:10.440
 a sobering thing.

00:22:11.639 --> 00:22:11.819
 I mean,

00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:12.319
 on one level,

00:22:12.399 --> 00:22:13.039
 he's talking about

00:22:13.039 --> 00:22:14.259
 the general problem of,

00:22:14.460 --> 00:22:15.659
 he's talking about

00:22:15.659 --> 00:22:16.639
 the general problem

00:22:16.639 --> 00:22:17.519
 of hypocrisy.

00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:19.259
 He's talking about

00:22:19.259 --> 00:22:20.359
 the general problem

00:22:20.359 --> 00:22:21.399
 that we appear

00:22:21.399 --> 00:22:22.799
 to be one thing

00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:23.519
 but we're actually

00:22:23.519 --> 00:22:24.700
 something very different.

00:22:25.220 --> 00:22:26.259
 He's talking about

00:22:26.259 --> 00:22:26.839
 the problem

00:22:26.839 --> 00:22:27.899
 of how we look

00:22:27.899 --> 00:22:28.539
 to the rich

00:22:28.539 --> 00:22:29.259
 or we look

00:22:29.259 --> 00:22:30.019
 to the popular

00:22:30.019 --> 00:22:30.579
 or we look

00:22:30.579 --> 00:22:31.359
 to the powerful

00:22:31.359 --> 00:22:33.159
 and we do things

00:22:33.159 --> 00:22:35.220
 to cater their favor.

00:22:35.900 --> 00:22:36.740
 We do things

00:22:36.740 --> 00:22:38.079
 so that they'll like us,

00:22:38.120 --> 00:22:38.920
 that the rich person

00:22:38.920 --> 00:22:39.519
 will like us,

00:22:39.559 --> 00:22:40.720
 that the powerful person

00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:41.380
 would like us,

00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:44.480
 that the influential person

00:22:44.480 --> 00:22:45.039
 would like us,

00:22:45.079 --> 00:22:46.380
 that if we're in business

00:22:46.380 --> 00:22:46.920
 or government

00:22:46.920 --> 00:22:47.819
 we look for

00:22:47.819 --> 00:22:50.980
 who the cool person is,

00:22:51.200 --> 00:22:53.000
 the person on the up and coming

00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:54.319
 and we try to ingratiate

00:22:54.319 --> 00:22:55.240
 ourselves into them

00:22:55.240 --> 00:22:56.180
 and fit in with them

00:22:56.180 --> 00:22:57.460
 and fit in with their circle

00:22:57.460 --> 00:22:58.440
 in the hope

00:22:58.440 --> 00:22:59.740
 that as they rise

00:22:59.740 --> 00:23:00.960
 that we will rise with them

00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:02.120
 and it's a very,

00:23:02.259 --> 00:23:03.559
 very common human problem.

00:23:04.100 --> 00:23:04.779
 And on one level,

00:23:04.779 --> 00:23:05.740
 Jesus' words

00:23:05.740 --> 00:23:06.639
 is speaking to this

00:23:06.639 --> 00:23:07.740
 common human problem

00:23:07.740 --> 00:23:08.879
 but he's also looking

00:23:08.879 --> 00:23:09.720
 very specifically

00:23:09.720 --> 00:23:10.399
 into that

00:23:10.399 --> 00:23:11.680
 which is the visible church

00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:13.200
 and he's making it say

00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:14.420
 that it's very possible

00:23:14.420 --> 00:23:15.519
 for me as a minister

00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:16.799
 to start to maybe,

00:23:17.240 --> 00:23:17.819
 you know,

00:23:17.940 --> 00:23:18.859
 to want to just look

00:23:18.859 --> 00:23:19.539
 with appearances

00:23:19.539 --> 00:23:20.460
 and whatever's going

00:23:20.460 --> 00:23:21.079
 to make myself

00:23:21.079 --> 00:23:21.859
 more popular

00:23:21.859 --> 00:23:24.139
 and maybe bring in crowds

00:23:24.139 --> 00:23:25.619
 or maybe bring in more money

00:23:25.619 --> 00:23:27.359
 or, you know,

00:23:27.420 --> 00:23:27.839
 maybe get,

00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:28.420
 you know,

00:23:28.460 --> 00:23:28.960
 have more,

00:23:29.359 --> 00:23:29.639
 you know,

00:23:29.740 --> 00:23:30.099
 influence,

00:23:30.399 --> 00:23:30.759
 have more,

00:23:30.879 --> 00:23:31.619
 whatever it is,

00:23:31.639 --> 00:23:32.539
 that it's easy for me

00:23:32.539 --> 00:23:33.940
 to change the way I dress,

00:23:33.940 --> 00:23:35.080
 the way I speak,

00:23:35.200 --> 00:23:36.500
 the topics I speak on

00:23:36.500 --> 00:23:37.640
 and do all of these

00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:38.440
 types of things

00:23:38.440 --> 00:23:40.140
 because I want to connect

00:23:40.140 --> 00:23:40.779
 with the rich,

00:23:40.900 --> 00:23:41.420
 the popular

00:23:41.420 --> 00:23:42.100
 and the powerful

00:23:42.100 --> 00:23:43.420
 and I want to move up

00:23:43.420 --> 00:23:44.900
 and if I want to move up

00:23:44.900 --> 00:23:46.160
 I step on those

00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:47.120
 who are little people

00:23:47.120 --> 00:23:48.580
 because that's the only way

00:23:48.580 --> 00:23:49.100
 you move up.

00:23:49.180 --> 00:23:50.120
 You can't move up

00:23:50.120 --> 00:23:50.960
 to those people

00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:53.539
 without stepping on little people.

00:23:53.680 --> 00:23:54.340
 It's completely

00:23:54.340 --> 00:23:55.380
 and utterly impossible.

00:23:55.720 --> 00:23:56.299
 If you're spending

00:23:56.299 --> 00:23:57.059
 all your time

00:23:57.059 --> 00:23:57.880
 looking up

00:23:57.880 --> 00:23:58.860
 at those people,

00:23:58.920 --> 00:23:59.860
 you don't see the others

00:23:59.860 --> 00:24:00.799
 that you're stepping on

00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:01.640
 and we all know it

00:24:01.640 --> 00:24:03.140
 and Jesus says

00:24:03.140 --> 00:24:04.360
 that when it happens

00:24:04.360 --> 00:24:06.080
 within the visible church,

00:24:07.040 --> 00:24:09.600
 when he says

00:24:09.600 --> 00:24:10.660
 the greater condemnation,

00:24:10.780 --> 00:24:11.500
 he doesn't say this

00:24:11.500 --> 00:24:13.600
 about LGBTQ plus activists.

00:24:13.880 --> 00:24:14.740
 He doesn't say it

00:24:14.740 --> 00:24:15.520
 about the people

00:24:15.520 --> 00:24:16.380
 who are off

00:24:16.380 --> 00:24:17.440
 just spending all their time

00:24:17.440 --> 00:24:18.400
 drinking in bars.

00:24:18.860 --> 00:24:20.300
 He says it about people

00:24:20.300 --> 00:24:21.220
 like me

00:24:21.220 --> 00:24:22.520
 and you.

00:24:23.100 --> 00:24:24.680
 This is a profound

00:24:24.680 --> 00:24:26.240
 warning to us.

00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:33.880
 And you see,

00:24:34.579 --> 00:24:37.180
 we're going to get

00:24:37.180 --> 00:24:37.779
 to the good news

00:24:37.779 --> 00:24:38.259
 in a moment.

00:24:40.700 --> 00:24:41.660
 But you see how

00:24:41.660 --> 00:24:42.380
 there's this very,

00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:43.339
 very profound

00:24:43.339 --> 00:24:46.299
 if in fact

00:24:46.299 --> 00:24:47.559
 the news

00:24:47.559 --> 00:24:48.339
 that I have just

00:24:48.339 --> 00:24:49.000
 shared with you

00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:49.799
 at different times

00:24:49.799 --> 00:24:50.539
 throughout this sermon

00:24:50.539 --> 00:24:51.279
 and the news

00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:52.079
 of this

00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:53.420
 that Jesus is saying

00:24:53.420 --> 00:24:54.259
 all of this

00:24:54.259 --> 00:24:56.460
 just before he dies

00:24:56.460 --> 00:24:57.240
 on the cross.

00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:00.339
 Nobody thinks

00:25:00.339 --> 00:25:01.379
 he looks like God.

00:25:01.900 --> 00:25:02.440
 Nobody thinks

00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:03.420
 he's anybody special.

00:25:04.980 --> 00:25:05.859
 He doesn't have

00:25:05.859 --> 00:25:06.440
 any armies.

00:25:07.900 --> 00:25:08.759
 He doesn't have

00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:09.400
 a PhD.

00:25:10.480 --> 00:25:11.119
 He doesn't have

00:25:11.119 --> 00:25:11.599
 villas.

00:25:12.039 --> 00:25:12.740
 He doesn't have

00:25:12.740 --> 00:25:13.240
 sermons.

00:25:13.980 --> 00:25:14.660
 He's a nobody.

00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:18.460
 And he dies

00:25:18.460 --> 00:25:19.259
 on a cross

00:25:19.259 --> 00:25:20.160
 stripped naked

00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:20.900
 not even having

00:25:20.900 --> 00:25:21.460
 his clothes

00:25:21.460 --> 00:25:22.160
 at the end

00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:23.759
 as they embarrass him

00:25:23.759 --> 00:25:24.740
 and humiliate him.

00:25:25.680 --> 00:25:26.960
 The religious leaders

00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:28.660
 and the cultural leaders

00:25:28.660 --> 00:25:29.859
 and the political leaders

00:25:29.859 --> 00:25:31.379
 and the intellectual leaders

00:25:31.379 --> 00:25:32.779
 and the aesthetic leaders

00:25:32.779 --> 00:25:33.619
 who want to climb

00:25:33.619 --> 00:25:34.539
 the greasy ladder

00:25:34.539 --> 00:25:36.359
 have stepped

00:25:36.359 --> 00:25:38.099
 on him

00:25:38.099 --> 00:25:39.960
 on their way

00:25:39.960 --> 00:25:40.539
 up

00:25:40.539 --> 00:25:41.579
 that

00:25:41.579 --> 00:25:42.420
 greasy

00:25:42.420 --> 00:25:43.180
 pole.

00:25:47.819 --> 00:25:48.799
 He's the one

00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:49.619
 stepped on

00:25:49.619 --> 00:25:50.960
 on the way up.

00:25:50.960 --> 00:25:52.799
 and he does it

00:25:52.799 --> 00:25:53.400
 out of love

00:25:53.400 --> 00:25:54.360
 for you and me.

00:25:56.360 --> 00:25:57.180
 And you see

00:25:57.180 --> 00:25:57.620
 if

00:25:57.620 --> 00:25:59.079
 you begin

00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:00.059
 to have the gospel

00:26:00.059 --> 00:26:00.519
 become

00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:01.340
 if you realize

00:26:01.340 --> 00:26:03.259
 I can give

00:26:03.259 --> 00:26:04.240
 my life to Christ

00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:04.700
 it's

00:26:04.700 --> 00:26:06.299
 it makes sense

00:26:06.299 --> 00:26:06.620
 it's

00:26:06.620 --> 00:26:07.819
 what I need

00:26:07.819 --> 00:26:08.160
 it's the

00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:10.220
 I need to give

00:26:10.220 --> 00:26:10.960
 my life to Christ

00:26:10.960 --> 00:26:11.900
 and it's the story

00:26:11.900 --> 00:26:12.480
 of Christ

00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:13.299
 and the good news

00:26:13.299 --> 00:26:14.019
 of what he has done

00:26:14.019 --> 00:26:14.380
 for us

00:26:14.380 --> 00:26:15.660
 as that starts

00:26:15.660 --> 00:26:17.160
 to become more real

00:26:17.160 --> 00:26:17.559
 to us

00:26:17.559 --> 00:26:18.440
 at a deep level

00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:20.299
 it forms us

00:26:20.299 --> 00:26:21.600
 not to be a person

00:26:21.600 --> 00:26:22.460
 who is going to be

00:26:22.460 --> 00:26:23.600
 one thing in public

00:26:23.600 --> 00:26:24.320
 and another thing

00:26:24.320 --> 00:26:24.920
 in private

00:26:24.920 --> 00:26:26.320
 who's going to be one

00:26:26.320 --> 00:26:27.440
 who's never looking

00:26:27.440 --> 00:26:28.539
 at the little people

00:26:28.539 --> 00:26:29.980
 and we don't care

00:26:29.980 --> 00:26:30.980
 if we step on them

00:26:30.980 --> 00:26:32.400
 it's going to create

00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:32.820
 within us

00:26:32.820 --> 00:26:33.820
 a very different thing

00:26:33.820 --> 00:26:34.600
 because our

00:26:34.600 --> 00:26:36.480
 our imagination

00:26:36.480 --> 00:26:38.080
 and our heart

00:26:38.080 --> 00:26:39.080
 is captivated

00:26:39.080 --> 00:26:40.279
 by the picture

00:26:40.279 --> 00:26:41.880
 and the truth

00:26:41.880 --> 00:26:43.039
 of God

00:26:43.039 --> 00:26:43.920
 setting aside

00:26:43.920 --> 00:26:44.539
 his glory

00:26:44.539 --> 00:26:45.880
 and divine prerogatives

00:26:45.880 --> 00:26:46.960
 and entering

00:26:46.960 --> 00:26:48.360
 into our human existence

00:26:48.360 --> 00:26:49.660
 entering into the existence

00:26:49.660 --> 00:26:50.800
 of the little people

00:26:50.800 --> 00:26:52.040
 the forgotten people

00:26:52.040 --> 00:26:53.740
 that they might loved

00:26:53.740 --> 00:26:54.540
 and lovely be

00:26:54.540 --> 00:26:57.880
 at a very very deep level

00:26:57.880 --> 00:26:58.980
 it starts to form us

00:26:58.980 --> 00:26:59.900
 in a very different

00:26:59.900 --> 00:27:00.520
 way of living

00:27:00.520 --> 00:27:01.480
 but it's exactly

00:27:01.480 --> 00:27:02.200
 the way of living

00:27:02.200 --> 00:27:03.640
 that most Canadians want

00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:04.840
 we do not want

00:27:04.840 --> 00:27:05.980
 to be separate people

00:27:05.980 --> 00:27:07.780
 and for most people

00:27:07.780 --> 00:27:09.200
 we might brush it off

00:27:09.200 --> 00:27:09.740
 if somebody

00:27:09.740 --> 00:27:11.460
 if you confronted somebody

00:27:11.460 --> 00:27:12.040
 about how they've

00:27:12.040 --> 00:27:13.060
 stepped on this person

00:27:13.060 --> 00:27:13.660
 and this person

00:27:13.660 --> 00:27:14.200
 and this person

00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:15.039
 up to the top

00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:16.259
 and you confronted

00:27:16.259 --> 00:27:16.920
 them about it

00:27:16.920 --> 00:27:17.360
 and they might

00:27:17.360 --> 00:27:18.500
 they might rail at you

00:27:18.500 --> 00:27:19.259
 and stuff like that

00:27:19.259 --> 00:27:20.059
 but inwardly

00:27:20.059 --> 00:27:21.279
 they would either rage

00:27:21.279 --> 00:27:22.000
 or be ashamed

00:27:22.000 --> 00:27:22.860
 because nobody

00:27:22.860 --> 00:27:24.120
 wants to be that guy

00:27:24.120 --> 00:27:25.019
 nobody wants to be

00:27:25.019 --> 00:27:25.620
 that gal

00:27:25.620 --> 00:27:27.720
 and what we see here

00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:28.860
 is at a very very

00:27:28.860 --> 00:27:29.779
 very deep level

00:27:29.779 --> 00:27:31.039
 Jesus is forming us

00:27:31.039 --> 00:27:31.580
 for something

00:27:31.580 --> 00:27:32.460
 that on one level

00:27:32.460 --> 00:27:33.180
 we deeply

00:27:33.180 --> 00:27:34.160
 deeply deeply

00:27:34.160 --> 00:27:35.340
 desire to be

00:27:35.340 --> 00:27:38.000
 when we accept

00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:38.620
 the gospel

00:27:38.620 --> 00:27:41.519
 it's in that context

00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:43.400
 that he talks

00:27:43.400 --> 00:27:43.980
 about money

00:27:43.980 --> 00:27:47.140
 now just before

00:27:47.140 --> 00:27:47.880
 I read this

00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:49.280
 I'm going to have

00:27:49.280 --> 00:27:50.340
 my standard caveat

00:27:50.340 --> 00:27:52.320
 if you're here today

00:27:52.320 --> 00:27:52.860
 and you don't know

00:27:52.860 --> 00:27:53.400
 what you think

00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:54.000
 about Jesus

00:27:54.000 --> 00:27:54.800
 you're not sure

00:27:54.800 --> 00:27:55.300
 whether you

00:27:55.300 --> 00:27:56.620
 believe in him

00:27:56.620 --> 00:27:57.420
 or want to belong

00:27:57.420 --> 00:27:57.860
 to him

00:27:57.860 --> 00:27:58.680
 maybe you're thinking

00:27:58.680 --> 00:27:59.440
 you're going to leave

00:27:59.440 --> 00:28:00.160
 maybe you're trying

00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:00.580
 to figure out

00:28:00.580 --> 00:28:00.980
 what to do

00:28:00.980 --> 00:28:01.620
 if you're watching

00:28:01.620 --> 00:28:02.060
 online

00:28:02.060 --> 00:28:03.060
 and you're just curious

00:28:03.060 --> 00:28:05.900
 so I love

00:28:05.900 --> 00:28:06.759
 what

00:28:06.759 --> 00:28:07.920
 before you hear

00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:08.560
 anything else

00:28:08.560 --> 00:28:09.400
 just listen to

00:28:09.400 --> 00:28:10.340
 what he has to say

00:28:10.339 --> 00:28:12.159
 but I want to make

00:28:12.159 --> 00:28:12.859
 you aware

00:28:12.859 --> 00:28:13.279
 of the fact

00:28:13.279 --> 00:28:14.119
 that the council

00:28:14.119 --> 00:28:14.720
 and myself

00:28:14.720 --> 00:28:15.319
 would like it

00:28:15.319 --> 00:28:16.339
 if that describes

00:28:16.339 --> 00:28:16.500
 you

00:28:16.500 --> 00:28:17.019
 you haven't given

00:28:17.019 --> 00:28:17.759
 your life to Christ

00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:18.939
 we don't want you

00:28:18.939 --> 00:28:19.819
 to give us any money

00:28:19.819 --> 00:28:21.799
 like really

00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:22.159
 literally

00:28:22.159 --> 00:28:23.099
 we don't want you

00:28:23.099 --> 00:28:23.919
 to give us any money

00:28:23.919 --> 00:28:27.279
 because it's not

00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:27.799
 about money

00:28:27.799 --> 00:28:28.220
 it's about

00:28:28.220 --> 00:28:29.459
 figuring out

00:28:29.459 --> 00:28:30.740
 whether Jesus

00:28:30.740 --> 00:28:31.439
 is in fact

00:28:31.439 --> 00:28:31.879
 the one

00:28:31.879 --> 00:28:32.819
 who can reconcile

00:28:32.819 --> 00:28:33.659
 you to the

00:28:33.659 --> 00:28:34.539
 triune God

00:28:34.539 --> 00:28:35.099
 the creator

00:28:35.099 --> 00:28:35.720
 and sustainer

00:28:35.720 --> 00:28:36.319
 of all things

00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:37.359
 and that's the

00:28:37.359 --> 00:28:38.019
 great existential

00:28:38.019 --> 00:28:38.759
 question

00:28:38.759 --> 00:28:39.240
 and money

00:28:39.240 --> 00:28:39.900
 is completely

00:28:39.900 --> 00:28:40.400
 and utterly

00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:40.920
 irrelevant

00:28:40.920 --> 00:28:42.400
 and

00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:44.319
 and I'll explain

00:28:44.319 --> 00:28:44.720
 in a moment

00:28:44.720 --> 00:28:45.220
 why Jesus

00:28:45.220 --> 00:28:46.000
 says what he says

00:28:46.000 --> 00:28:46.740
 and why it matters

00:28:46.740 --> 00:28:47.299
 to us

00:28:47.299 --> 00:28:47.940
 once we're

00:28:47.940 --> 00:28:48.640
 following him

00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:49.160
 but if you

00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:49.879
 haven't decided

00:28:49.879 --> 00:28:50.700
 to follow him

00:28:50.700 --> 00:28:50.920
 yet

00:28:50.920 --> 00:28:51.819
 we don't want

00:28:51.819 --> 00:28:52.200
 your money

00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:53.400
 not about money

00:28:53.400 --> 00:28:55.200
 it really isn't

00:28:55.200 --> 00:28:56.579
 what does Jesus

00:28:56.579 --> 00:28:56.879
 say

00:28:56.879 --> 00:28:58.200
 and this is a

00:28:58.200 --> 00:28:58.920
 very scary thing

00:28:58.920 --> 00:28:59.539
 it touches on

00:28:59.539 --> 00:29:00.259
 our deep fears

00:29:00.259 --> 00:29:01.740
 about Christ

00:29:01.740 --> 00:29:02.879
 and money

00:29:02.879 --> 00:29:04.160
 verse 41

00:29:04.160 --> 00:29:05.140
 and he sat down

00:29:05.140 --> 00:29:06.400
 opposite the treasury

00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:07.579
 and watched the people

00:29:07.579 --> 00:29:08.220
 putting money

00:29:08.220 --> 00:29:08.960
 into the offering

00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:09.440
 box

00:29:09.440 --> 00:29:11.019
 many rich people

00:29:11.019 --> 00:29:12.120
 put in large sums

00:29:12.120 --> 00:29:13.259
 and a poor widow

00:29:13.259 --> 00:29:14.360
 came in and put in

00:29:14.360 --> 00:29:15.900
 two small copper coins

00:29:15.900 --> 00:29:16.660
 which make a penny

00:29:16.660 --> 00:29:18.079
 now that's a very

00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:19.360
 inadequate translation

00:29:19.360 --> 00:29:20.799
 and there's not really

00:29:20.799 --> 00:29:21.579
 any good way

00:29:21.579 --> 00:29:22.259
 to make an English

00:29:22.259 --> 00:29:22.880
 translation

00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:23.579
 unless if you had

00:29:23.579 --> 00:29:24.339
 a study bible

00:29:24.339 --> 00:29:24.740
 or something

00:29:24.740 --> 00:29:25.180
 there might be

00:29:25.180 --> 00:29:25.920
 a footnote there

00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:27.460
 I looked up

00:29:27.460 --> 00:29:28.000
 the average

00:29:28.000 --> 00:29:29.019
 Canadian salary

00:29:29.019 --> 00:29:30.539
 and so basically

00:29:30.539 --> 00:29:31.480
 what you understand

00:29:31.480 --> 00:29:32.299
 is imagine

00:29:32.299 --> 00:29:33.079
 that in Canadian

00:29:33.079 --> 00:29:33.700
 society

00:29:33.700 --> 00:29:35.000
 and I've known

00:29:35.000 --> 00:29:35.660
 people who've

00:29:35.660 --> 00:29:36.039
 had to

00:29:36.039 --> 00:29:37.680
 had their money

00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:38.659
 managed for them

00:29:38.659 --> 00:29:39.539
 and so every day

00:29:39.539 --> 00:29:40.180
 they have a couple

00:29:40.180 --> 00:29:40.659
 of dollars

00:29:40.659 --> 00:29:41.159
 or whatever the

00:29:41.159 --> 00:29:41.819
 amount is in the

00:29:41.819 --> 00:29:42.079
 bank

00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:42.859
 and five days a

00:29:42.859 --> 00:29:43.339
 week they get

00:29:43.339 --> 00:29:45.200
 money available

00:29:45.200 --> 00:29:45.619
 to them

00:29:45.619 --> 00:29:46.740
 and in Canadian

00:29:46.740 --> 00:29:47.700
 in our current

00:29:47.700 --> 00:29:48.559
 current day

00:29:48.559 --> 00:29:49.299
 this is somebody

00:29:49.299 --> 00:29:50.119
 who every day

00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:50.799
 from Monday to

00:29:50.799 --> 00:29:51.359
 Friday gets

00:29:51.359 --> 00:29:52.119
 two toonies

00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:54.839
 that's what it

00:29:54.839 --> 00:29:55.740
 means for Canadians

00:29:55.740 --> 00:29:56.740
 two toonies

00:29:56.740 --> 00:29:57.659
 four bucks

00:29:57.659 --> 00:29:58.940
 Monday

00:29:58.940 --> 00:29:59.339
 Tuesday

00:29:59.339 --> 00:29:59.680
 Wednesday

00:29:59.680 --> 00:30:00.059
 Thursday

00:30:00.059 --> 00:30:00.460
 Friday

00:30:00.460 --> 00:30:00.920
 they go to

00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:01.720
 wherever the

00:30:01.720 --> 00:30:02.899
 social service

00:30:02.899 --> 00:30:03.240
 center

00:30:03.240 --> 00:30:04.279
 hand them

00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:05.059
 two toonies

00:30:05.059 --> 00:30:07.380
 and that's

00:30:07.380 --> 00:30:07.980
 what she has

00:30:07.980 --> 00:30:08.519
 to live on

00:30:08.519 --> 00:30:13.099
 and she

00:30:13.099 --> 00:30:13.799
 puts both

00:30:13.799 --> 00:30:14.559
 of them

00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:18.660
 aside for the

00:30:18.660 --> 00:30:19.400
 glory of God

00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:23.559
 now

00:30:23.559 --> 00:30:25.160
 and then

00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:26.019
 Jesus says

00:30:26.019 --> 00:30:26.240
 this

00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:26.900
 verse 43

00:30:26.900 --> 00:30:27.160
 and he

00:30:27.160 --> 00:30:27.700
 calls his

00:30:27.700 --> 00:30:28.160
 disciples

00:30:28.160 --> 00:30:29.079
 to him

00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:29.440
 and said

00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:29.700
 to them

00:30:29.700 --> 00:30:30.279
 truly I

00:30:30.279 --> 00:30:30.680
 say to

00:30:30.680 --> 00:30:30.839
 you

00:30:30.839 --> 00:30:31.740
 this

00:30:31.740 --> 00:30:32.160
 poor

00:30:32.160 --> 00:30:32.539
 widow

00:30:32.539 --> 00:30:33.659
 has put

00:30:33.659 --> 00:30:34.019
 in more

00:30:34.019 --> 00:30:34.399
 than all

00:30:34.399 --> 00:30:34.779
 those

00:30:34.779 --> 00:30:35.099
 who are

00:30:35.099 --> 00:30:35.639
 contributing

00:30:35.639 --> 00:30:36.619
 to the

00:30:36.619 --> 00:30:36.960
 offering

00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:37.440
 box

00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:38.599
 for they

00:30:38.599 --> 00:30:38.920
 all

00:30:38.920 --> 00:30:39.559
 contributed

00:30:39.559 --> 00:30:40.139
 out of

00:30:40.139 --> 00:30:40.299
 their

00:30:40.299 --> 00:30:40.819
 abundance

00:30:40.819 --> 00:30:42.539
 but she

00:30:42.539 --> 00:30:42.799
 out of

00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:42.960
 her

00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:43.420
 poverty

00:30:43.420 --> 00:30:44.799
 has put

00:30:44.799 --> 00:30:44.920
 in

00:30:44.920 --> 00:30:45.240
 everything

00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:45.519
 she

00:30:45.519 --> 00:30:45.879
 had

00:30:45.879 --> 00:30:46.259
 all

00:30:46.259 --> 00:30:46.420
 she

00:30:46.420 --> 00:30:46.559
 had

00:30:46.559 --> 00:30:46.680
 to

00:30:46.680 --> 00:30:46.819
 live

00:30:46.819 --> 00:30:47.059
 on

00:30:47.059 --> 00:30:48.259
 be a

00:30:48.259 --> 00:30:48.379
 little

00:30:48.379 --> 00:30:48.559
 bit

00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:48.859
 as if

00:30:48.859 --> 00:30:49.039
 Bill

00:30:49.039 --> 00:30:49.359
 Gates

00:30:49.359 --> 00:30:49.599
 came

00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:49.759
 to

00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:49.940
 visit

00:30:49.940 --> 00:30:50.259
 us

00:30:50.259 --> 00:30:50.799
 and by

00:30:50.799 --> 00:30:50.879
 the

00:30:50.879 --> 00:30:51.019
 way

00:30:51.019 --> 00:30:51.220
 Bill

00:30:51.220 --> 00:30:51.399
 if

00:30:51.399 --> 00:30:51.639
 you're

00:30:51.639 --> 00:30:52.460
 watching

00:30:52.460 --> 00:30:52.960
 you're

00:30:52.960 --> 00:30:53.259
 always

00:30:53.259 --> 00:30:53.720
 welcome

00:30:53.720 --> 00:30:57.599
 but he

00:30:57.599 --> 00:30:57.980
 comes

00:30:57.980 --> 00:30:58.559
 and after

00:30:58.559 --> 00:30:58.779
 the

00:30:58.779 --> 00:30:59.099
 sermon

00:30:59.099 --> 00:30:59.519
 he

00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:00.279
 you know

00:31:00.279 --> 00:31:01.259
 ignores

00:31:01.259 --> 00:31:01.579
 what I've

00:31:01.579 --> 00:31:01.720
 said

00:31:01.720 --> 00:31:02.120
 about not

00:31:02.120 --> 00:31:02.559
 giving us

00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:02.839
 money

00:31:02.839 --> 00:31:03.160
 and he

00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:03.640
 writes us

00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:03.920
 a check

00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:04.100
 for

00:31:04.100 --> 00:31:05.039
 $25,000

00:31:05.039 --> 00:31:07.720
 I don't

00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:07.980
 know how many

00:31:07.980 --> 00:31:08.660
 billions he has

00:31:08.660 --> 00:31:09.279
 left over

00:31:09.279 --> 00:31:11.279
 but he has

00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:11.700
 lots

00:31:11.700 --> 00:31:12.759
 of billions

00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:13.380
 left over

00:31:13.380 --> 00:31:14.400
 after $25,000

00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:15.019
 my guess is

00:31:15.019 --> 00:31:15.640
 most of you

00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:15.940
 here

00:31:15.940 --> 00:31:16.759
 couldn't drop

00:31:16.759 --> 00:31:17.120
 a check

00:31:17.120 --> 00:31:18.220
 for $25,000

00:31:18.220 --> 00:31:19.339
 very easily

00:31:19.339 --> 00:31:20.559
 maybe a couple

00:31:20.559 --> 00:31:21.120
 of you could

00:31:21.120 --> 00:31:23.539
 but

00:31:23.539 --> 00:31:25.360
 here's the

00:31:25.360 --> 00:31:25.819
 deep fear

00:31:25.819 --> 00:31:26.200
 we have

00:31:26.200 --> 00:31:26.539
 with the

00:31:26.539 --> 00:31:26.839
 text

00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:28.899
 if we're

00:31:28.899 --> 00:31:29.339
 honest

00:31:29.339 --> 00:31:29.799
 with it

00:31:29.799 --> 00:31:32.000
 what is

00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:32.339
 Jesus

00:31:32.339 --> 00:31:32.779
 doing

00:31:32.779 --> 00:31:33.259
 here

00:31:33.259 --> 00:31:34.779
 George

00:31:34.779 --> 00:31:35.139
 don't

00:31:35.139 --> 00:31:35.279
 you

00:31:35.279 --> 00:31:35.500
 think

00:31:35.500 --> 00:31:35.740
 this

00:31:35.740 --> 00:31:36.019
 woman

00:31:36.019 --> 00:31:36.279
 was

00:31:36.279 --> 00:31:36.919
 foolish

00:31:36.919 --> 00:31:38.819
 George

00:31:38.819 --> 00:31:39.439
 don't

00:31:39.439 --> 00:31:39.679
 you

00:31:39.679 --> 00:31:40.779
 think

00:31:40.779 --> 00:31:41.059
 does

00:31:41.059 --> 00:31:42.319
 God

00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:42.579
 just

00:31:42.579 --> 00:31:42.859
 want

00:31:42.859 --> 00:31:43.000
 us

00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:43.339
 to be

00:31:43.339 --> 00:31:43.819
 poor

00:31:43.819 --> 00:31:45.179
 George

00:31:45.179 --> 00:31:45.759
 I

00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:45.939
 would

00:31:45.939 --> 00:31:46.159
 like

00:31:46.159 --> 00:31:46.399
 to

00:31:46.399 --> 00:31:47.279
 be

00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:47.439
 able

00:31:47.439 --> 00:31:47.599
 to

00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:47.839
 own

00:31:47.839 --> 00:31:48.039
 a

00:31:48.559 --> 00:31:48.759
 or

00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:48.919
 a

00:31:48.919 --> 00:31:49.240
 house

00:31:49.240 --> 00:31:49.720
 someday

00:31:49.720 --> 00:31:50.240
 I

00:31:50.240 --> 00:31:51.459
 want

00:31:51.459 --> 00:31:51.599
 to

00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:51.799
 make

00:31:51.799 --> 00:31:52.039
 some

00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:52.240
 money

00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:52.459
 so

00:31:52.459 --> 00:31:52.659
 I

00:31:52.659 --> 00:31:52.899
 can

00:31:52.899 --> 00:31:53.119
 just

00:31:53.119 --> 00:31:53.599
 like

00:31:53.599 --> 00:31:53.719
 I

00:31:53.719 --> 00:31:53.979
 don't

00:31:53.979 --> 00:31:54.099
 want

 to

 have

00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:54.399
 a

00:31:54.399 --> 00:31:55.039

00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:55.199
 I

00:31:55.199 --> 00:31:55.519
 would

00:31:55.519 --> 00:31:55.679
 just

 like

00:31:57.759 --> 00:31:58.039
 and yet

00:31:58.039 --> 00:31:58.859
 Jesus

00:31:58.859 --> 00:31:59.219
 seems

00:31:59.219 --> 00:31:59.539
 to be

00:31:59.539 --> 00:31:59.899
 talking

 here

00:32:00.239 --> 00:32:00.479
 in a

00:32:00.479 --> 00:32:00.879
 particular

00:32:00.879 --> 00:32:01.179
 way

00:32:01.179 --> 00:32:01.439
 as if

00:32:01.439 --> 00:32:01.619
 what

 he

00:32:01.739 --> 00:32:02.079
 wants

00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:02.279
 is

00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:02.699
 that

00:32:02.699 --> 00:32:02.859
 the

00:32:02.859 --> 00:32:03.119
 best

00:32:03.119 --> 00:32:03.299
 thing

00:32:03.299 --> 00:32:03.419
 I

00:32:03.419 --> 00:32:03.559
 could

00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:04.059
 possibly

00:32:04.059 --> 00:32:04.299
 be

00:32:04.299 --> 00:32:04.419
 is

00:32:04.419 --> 00:32:04.579
 a

00:32:04.579 --> 00:32:04.799
 poor

00:32:04.799 --> 00:32:05.059
 widow

00:32:05.059 --> 00:32:05.319
 giving

00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:05.579
 all

00:32:05.579 --> 00:32:05.699
 of

 my

00:32:05.839 --> 00:32:06.099
 money

00:32:06.099 --> 00:32:06.359
 until

00:32:06.359 --> 00:32:06.559
 I

00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:07.099
 starve

00:32:07.099 --> 00:32:07.379
 to

00:32:07.379 --> 00:32:07.619
 death

00:32:07.619 --> 00:32:07.819
 like

 George

00:32:08.099 --> 00:32:08.319
 this

00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:08.559
 just

00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:08.799
 seems

00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:09.099
 to be

00:32:09.099 --> 00:32:09.559
 completely

00:32:09.559 --> 00:32:09.979
 kooky

 it's

00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:12.299

00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:13.919
 it's

00:32:13.919 --> 00:32:14.139
 like

 to

00:32:14.299 --> 00:32:14.539
 have

00:32:14.539 --> 00:32:15.139
 to

00:32:15.139 --> 00:32:15.399
 worry

00:32:15.399 --> 00:32:15.659
 about

 money

00:32:15.980 --> 00:32:16.279
 doesn't

00:32:16.599 --> 00:32:17.159
 the

00:32:17.159 --> 00:32:17.439
 answer

00:32:17.439 --> 00:32:17.579
 is

00:32:17.579 --> 00:32:17.659
 he

00:32:17.659 --> 00:32:17.899
 does

 we

00:32:28.319 --> 00:32:28.500
 just

00:32:28.500 --> 00:32:28.759
 listen

 to

00:32:28.939 --> 00:32:29.099
 our

 a

00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:30.099
 second

00:32:30.099 --> 00:32:33.279
 why

00:32:33.279 --> 00:32:33.500
 is

00:32:33.500 --> 00:32:33.659
 it

00:32:33.659 --> 00:32:33.819
 that

00:32:33.819 --> 00:32:33.939
 it

 be

00:32:34.199 --> 00:32:34.379
 like

 dagger

 of

00:32:36.619 --> 00:32:36.779
 a

00:32:36.779 --> 00:32:37.059
 sudden

00:32:37.059 --> 00:32:37.359
 I

00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:37.480
 don't

00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:37.579
 know

00:32:37.579 --> 00:32:37.919
 God

00:32:37.919 --> 00:32:38.220
 showed

00:32:38.220 --> 00:32:38.399
 up

00:32:38.400 --> 00:32:38.640
 just

00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:38.820
 in

00:32:38.820 --> 00:32:39.000
 front

00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:39.120
 of

00:32:39.120 --> 00:32:39.300
 us

00:32:39.300 --> 00:32:39.480
 and

00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:39.700
 said

00:32:39.700 --> 00:32:40.019
 I

00:32:40.019 --> 00:32:40.460
 need

00:32:40.460 --> 00:32:40.600
 you

00:32:40.600 --> 00:32:40.880
 to

00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:41.120
 write

00:32:41.120 --> 00:32:41.340
 a

00:32:41.340 --> 00:32:41.960
 check

00:32:41.960 --> 00:32:42.140
 for

 $3,000

00:32:42.860 --> 00:32:43.460
 and

00:32:43.460 --> 00:32:43.620
 for

00:32:43.620 --> 00:32:43.900
 almost

00:32:43.900 --> 00:32:44.200
 every

00:32:44.200 --> 00:32:44.500
 single

00:32:44.500 --> 00:32:44.680
 one

00:32:44.680 --> 00:32:44.800
 of

00:32:44.800 --> 00:32:44.960
 us

00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:45.140
 here

00:32:45.140 --> 00:32:45.340
 that

00:32:45.340 --> 00:32:45.500
 would

00:32:45.500 --> 00:32:45.660
 be

00:32:45.660 --> 00:32:46.019
 like

00:32:46.019 --> 00:32:48.940
 that's

00:32:48.940 --> 00:32:49.080
 not

00:32:49.080 --> 00:32:49.240
 all

00:32:49.240 --> 00:32:49.440
 your

00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:50.780
 money

00:32:50.780 --> 00:32:52.019
 in

 most

00:32:52.240 --> 00:32:52.640
 cases

00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:52.900
 here

00:32:52.900 --> 00:32:53.400
 probably

00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:54.180
 but

00:32:54.180 --> 00:32:54.340
 why

00:32:54.340 --> 00:32:55.900
 is

00:32:55.900 --> 00:32:56.060
 it

00:32:56.060 --> 00:32:56.300
 that

00:32:56.300 --> 00:32:56.580
 we

00:32:56.580 --> 00:32:56.780
 get

00:32:56.780 --> 00:32:57.060
 so

00:32:57.060 --> 00:32:57.400
 anxious

 money

00:32:58.100 --> 00:32:59.320
 and

00:32:59.320 --> 00:32:59.540
 why

00:32:59.540 --> 00:32:59.740
 is

00:32:59.740 --> 00:32:59.860
 it

00:32:59.860 --> 00:32:59.980
 that

00:32:59.980 --> 00:33:00.120
 we

00:33:00.120 --> 00:33:00.420
 hate

00:33:00.420 --> 00:33:00.740
 being

00:33:00.740 --> 00:33:01.140
 anxious

00:33:01.519 --> 00:33:01.880
 money

00:33:01.880 --> 00:33:02.440
 yet

00:33:02.440 --> 00:33:02.600

 are

 around

00:33:03.560 --> 00:33:03.840
 money

00:33:03.840 --> 00:33:06.240
 and

00:33:06.240 --> 00:33:06.800
 you

00:33:06.800 --> 00:33:07.019
 know

00:33:07.019 --> 00:33:07.360
 if

00:33:07.360 --> 00:33:07.480
 you

00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:07.680
 think

00:33:07.680 --> 00:33:07.920
 about

00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:08.059
 it

00:38:01.600 --> 00:38:02.100
 remotely

00:38:02.100 --> 00:38:02.680
 organized

00:38:02.680 --> 00:38:02.960
 enough

00:38:02.960 --> 00:38:03.160
 to

00:38:03.160 --> 00:38:03.780
 orchestrate

00:38:03.780 --> 00:38:04.280
 anything

00:38:04.280 --> 00:38:04.640
 like

00:38:04.640 --> 00:38:05.060
 this

00:38:05.060 --> 00:38:06.160
 like

00:38:07.340 --> 00:38:07.700
 I

00:38:07.700 --> 00:38:07.900
 used

00:38:07.900 --> 00:38:08.040
 to

00:38:08.040 --> 00:38:08.200
 say

00:38:08.200 --> 00:38:08.780
 regularly

00:38:08.780 --> 00:38:09.280
 people

00:38:09.280 --> 00:38:09.480
 who

00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:09.660
 don't

00:38:09.660 --> 00:38:09.860
 like

00:38:09.860 --> 00:38:10.320
 organized

00:38:10.320 --> 00:38:10.780
 religion

00:38:10.780 --> 00:38:11.080
 should

00:38:11.080 --> 00:38:11.420
 come

00:38:11.420 --> 00:38:11.920
 to

00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:12.200
 my

00:38:12.200 --> 00:38:12.500
 church

00:38:12.500 --> 00:38:12.800
 because

00:38:12.800 --> 00:38:13.720
 we have

00:38:13.720 --> 00:38:14.440
 disorganized

00:38:14.440 --> 00:38:14.880
 religion

00:38:14.880 --> 00:38:15.760
 lots of

00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:16.140
 times

00:38:16.140 --> 00:38:17.240
 but

00:38:17.240 --> 00:38:18.100
 I was

00:38:18.100 --> 00:38:18.300
 going to

00:38:18.300 --> 00:38:18.500
 in the

00:38:18.500 --> 00:38:18.920
 announcements

00:38:18.920 --> 00:38:19.380
 announce

00:38:19.380 --> 00:38:19.900
 that those

00:38:19.900 --> 00:38:20.160
 of you

00:38:20.160 --> 00:38:20.519
 who call

00:38:20.519 --> 00:38:20.920
 this your

00:38:20.920 --> 00:38:21.400
 church home

00:38:21.400 --> 00:38:21.800
 just so

00:38:21.800 --> 00:38:22.100
 you know

00:38:22.100 --> 00:38:22.940
 that as

00:38:22.940 --> 00:38:23.220
 of the

00:38:23.220 --> 00:38:23.680
 end of

00:38:23.680 --> 00:38:24.720
 last

00:38:24.720 --> 00:38:25.080
 Sunday

00:38:25.080 --> 00:38:25.500
 we needed

00:38:25.500 --> 00:38:26.460
 $58,000

00:38:26.460 --> 00:38:27.300
 to balance

00:38:27.300 --> 00:38:27.780
 our books

00:38:27.780 --> 00:38:28.340
 I didn't

00:38:28.340 --> 00:38:28.820
 preach this

00:38:28.820 --> 00:38:29.080
 sermon

00:38:29.080 --> 00:38:29.600
 because of

00:38:29.600 --> 00:38:29.740
 that

00:38:29.740 --> 00:38:30.360
 complete and

00:38:30.360 --> 00:38:31.039
 utter coincidence

00:38:31.039 --> 00:38:32.180
 really is

00:38:32.180 --> 00:38:33.260
 or providence

00:38:33.260 --> 00:38:34.240
 I didn't plan

00:38:34.240 --> 00:38:34.740
 it that way

00:38:34.740 --> 00:38:35.440
 and I'm not

00:38:35.440 --> 00:38:35.960
 preaching this

00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:36.539
 sermon because

00:38:36.539 --> 00:38:37.160
 we have a need

00:38:37.160 --> 00:38:38.240
 for $58,000

00:38:38.240 --> 00:38:39.019
 to balance

00:38:39.019 --> 00:38:39.500
 our books

00:38:39.500 --> 00:38:40.480
 I present

00:38:40.480 --> 00:38:40.940
 that to

00:38:40.940 --> 00:38:41.239
 you for

00:38:41.239 --> 00:38:41.579
 this is

00:38:41.579 --> 00:38:41.739
 your

00:38:41.739 --> 00:38:42.039
 church

00:38:42.039 --> 00:38:42.280
 home

00:38:42.280 --> 00:38:42.480
 whether

00:38:42.480 --> 00:38:42.699
 you're

00:38:42.699 --> 00:38:43.039
 online

00:38:43.039 --> 00:38:43.440
 or here

00:38:43.440 --> 00:38:44.219
 and not

00:38:44.219 --> 00:38:44.500
 everybody

00:38:44.500 --> 00:38:45.099
 can give

00:38:45.099 --> 00:38:45.920
 that much

00:38:45.920 --> 00:38:46.139
 money

00:38:46.139 --> 00:38:46.739
 but everybody

00:38:46.739 --> 00:38:47.280
 can pray

00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:47.800
 and pray

00:38:47.800 --> 00:38:48.119
 that we

00:38:48.119 --> 00:38:48.599
 as a church

00:38:48.599 --> 00:38:49.000
 are always

00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:49.599
 seeking to

00:38:49.599 --> 00:38:50.239
 know God

00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:50.659
 to do

00:38:50.659 --> 00:38:51.179
 his will

00:38:51.179 --> 00:38:51.559
 to bring

00:38:51.559 --> 00:38:52.059
 him glory

00:38:52.059 --> 00:38:52.440
 to make

00:38:52.440 --> 00:38:52.880
 a difference

00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:53.139
 in the

00:38:53.139 --> 00:38:53.340
 world

00:38:53.340 --> 00:38:53.880
 for him

00:38:53.880 --> 00:38:54.719
 trusting

00:38:54.719 --> 00:38:55.039
 that he

00:38:55.039 --> 00:38:55.699
 will supply

00:38:55.699 --> 00:38:56.699
 the issue

00:38:56.699 --> 00:38:57.239
 isn't about

00:38:57.239 --> 00:38:57.679
 that the

00:38:57.679 --> 00:38:58.280
 issue here

00:38:58.280 --> 00:38:58.579
 is about

00:38:58.579 --> 00:38:59.039
 how can

00:38:59.039 --> 00:38:59.699
 you follow

00:38:59.699 --> 00:39:01.199
 the God

00:39:01.199 --> 00:39:01.719
 who gave

00:39:01.719 --> 00:39:02.079
 himself

00:39:02.079 --> 00:39:02.639
 for you

00:39:02.639 --> 00:39:02.980
 if you

00:39:02.980 --> 00:39:03.239
 never

00:39:03.239 --> 00:39:03.659
 give

00:39:03.659 --> 00:39:05.960
 the Bible

00:39:05.960 --> 00:39:06.420
 gives you

00:39:06.420 --> 00:39:06.780
 a very

00:39:06.780 --> 00:39:07.320
 very rough

00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:07.900
 estimate of

00:39:07.900 --> 00:39:08.260
 how to

00:39:08.260 --> 00:39:08.920
 handle that

00:39:08.920 --> 00:39:09.480
 generosity

00:39:09.500 --> 00:39:10.860
 and what

00:39:10.860 --> 00:39:11.219
 it is

00:39:11.219 --> 00:39:11.500
 and it's

00:39:11.500 --> 00:39:11.880
 called a

00:39:11.880 --> 00:39:12.179
 tithe

00:39:12.179 --> 00:39:12.940
 it's 10%

00:39:12.940 --> 00:39:13.320
 of your

00:39:13.320 --> 00:39:13.639
 income

00:39:13.639 --> 00:39:14.199
 which is

00:39:14.199 --> 00:39:14.699
 a shock

00:39:14.699 --> 00:39:15.539
 and when

00:39:15.539 --> 00:39:15.940
 Louise and

00:39:15.940 --> 00:39:16.320
 I began

00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:16.679
 to move

00:39:16.679 --> 00:39:17.119
 towards

00:39:17.119 --> 00:39:17.599
 tithing

00:39:17.599 --> 00:39:18.039
 we didn't

00:39:18.039 --> 00:39:18.300
 do it

00:39:18.300 --> 00:39:18.679
 by just

00:39:18.679 --> 00:39:19.000
 instantly

00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:19.300
 doing

00:39:19.300 --> 00:39:19.679
 because we

00:39:19.679 --> 00:39:19.800
 were

00:39:19.800 --> 00:39:20.300
 scaredy

00:39:20.300 --> 00:39:20.599
 cats

00:39:20.599 --> 00:39:21.519
 or I

00:39:21.519 --> 00:39:21.980
 was probably

00:39:21.980 --> 00:39:22.440
 more of a

00:39:22.440 --> 00:39:22.760
 scaredy

00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:22.940
 cat

00:39:22.940 --> 00:39:23.440
 Louise is

00:39:23.440 --> 00:39:23.920
 less of a

00:39:23.920 --> 00:39:24.260
 scaredy

00:39:24.260 --> 00:39:24.460
 cat

00:39:24.460 --> 00:39:24.780
 than I

00:39:24.780 --> 00:39:25.019
 am

00:39:25.019 --> 00:39:28.619
 and but

00:39:28.619 --> 00:39:29.559
 we moved

00:39:29.559 --> 00:39:29.900
 to that

00:39:29.900 --> 00:39:30.380
 point where

00:39:30.380 --> 00:39:30.679
 we would

00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:31.360
 give 10%

00:39:31.360 --> 00:39:31.719
 of our

00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:32.059
 income

00:39:32.059 --> 00:39:33.519
 to the

00:39:33.519 --> 00:39:33.780
 local

00:39:33.780 --> 00:39:34.219
 church

00:39:34.219 --> 00:39:34.900
 and to

00:39:34.900 --> 00:39:35.199
 others

00:39:35.199 --> 00:39:35.539
 for the

00:39:35.539 --> 00:39:36.000
 furtherance

00:39:36.000 --> 00:39:36.260
 of the

00:39:36.260 --> 00:39:36.599
 gospel

00:39:36.599 --> 00:39:37.219
 and that's

00:39:37.219 --> 00:39:37.559
 just a

00:39:37.559 --> 00:39:38.199
 very simple

00:39:38.199 --> 00:39:38.679
 rule of

00:39:38.679 --> 00:39:38.960
 thumb

00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:40.299
 to understand

00:39:40.299 --> 00:39:41.299
 what it

00:39:41.299 --> 00:39:42.619
 means to

00:39:42.619 --> 00:39:43.159
 follow the

00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:43.619
 one whose

00:39:43.619 --> 00:39:44.059
 gave is

00:39:44.059 --> 00:39:44.619
 all for

00:39:44.619 --> 00:39:44.939
 you

00:39:44.939 --> 00:39:46.759
 and that

00:39:46.759 --> 00:39:47.239
 means you

00:39:47.239 --> 00:39:47.419
 are going

00:39:47.419 --> 00:39:47.679
 to be

00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:48.259
 formed to

00:39:48.259 --> 00:39:48.699
 be one

00:39:48.699 --> 00:39:49.319
 who gives

00:39:49.319 --> 00:39:50.739
 and once

00:39:50.739 --> 00:39:51.199
 again that's

00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:51.659
 the answer

00:39:51.659 --> 00:39:52.099
 to our

00:39:52.099 --> 00:39:52.699
 longings and

00:39:52.699 --> 00:39:53.179
 our yearnings

00:39:53.179 --> 00:39:53.939
 nobody at

00:39:53.939 --> 00:39:54.599
 their funeral

00:39:54.599 --> 00:39:55.579
 if you could

00:39:55.579 --> 00:39:56.460
 go over here

00:39:56.460 --> 00:39:56.980
 what people

00:39:56.980 --> 00:39:57.659
 said nobody

00:39:57.659 --> 00:39:58.159
 would want

00:39:58.159 --> 00:39:58.439
 at their

00:39:58.439 --> 00:39:59.000
 funeral to

00:39:59.000 --> 00:39:59.219
 say you

00:39:59.219 --> 00:39:59.460
 know the

00:39:59.460 --> 00:39:59.879
 problem with

00:39:59.879 --> 00:40:00.399
 George is he

00:40:00.399 --> 00:40:00.799
 was really

00:40:00.799 --> 00:40:01.319
 cheap

00:40:01.320 --> 00:40:02.360
 the problem

00:40:02.360 --> 00:40:02.780
 with George

00:40:02.780 --> 00:40:03.200
 is he was

00:40:03.200 --> 00:40:04.260
 really miserly

00:40:04.260 --> 00:40:05.519
 the problem

00:40:05.519 --> 00:40:06.039
 with George

00:40:06.039 --> 00:40:06.740
 is he was

00:40:06.740 --> 00:40:07.539
 unbelievably

00:40:07.539 --> 00:40:08.420
 ungenerous

00:40:08.420 --> 00:40:09.380
 if I was

00:40:09.380 --> 00:40:09.960
 to hear that

00:40:09.960 --> 00:40:10.440
 I would be

00:40:10.440 --> 00:40:10.880
 crushed

00:40:10.880 --> 00:40:11.300
 what would

00:40:11.300 --> 00:40:11.620
 we like

00:40:11.620 --> 00:40:12.100
 people to

00:40:12.100 --> 00:40:12.340
 say

00:40:12.340 --> 00:40:13.559
 we'd like

00:40:13.559 --> 00:40:13.820
 to hear

00:40:13.820 --> 00:40:14.300
 people say

00:40:14.300 --> 00:40:14.440
 you know

00:40:14.440 --> 00:40:14.800
 the problem

00:40:14.800 --> 00:40:15.180
 with George

00:40:15.180 --> 00:40:15.559
 is he was

00:40:15.559 --> 00:40:16.260
 too generous

00:40:16.260 --> 00:40:18.480
 the problem

00:40:18.480 --> 00:40:19.000
 is that

00:40:19.000 --> 00:40:19.519
 you know

00:40:19.519 --> 00:40:20.180
 Sue is

00:40:20.180 --> 00:40:20.840
 too giving

00:40:20.840 --> 00:40:21.460
 the problem

00:40:21.460 --> 00:40:22.019
 with Bob

00:40:22.019 --> 00:40:22.340
 is they

00:40:22.340 --> 00:40:22.600
 just

00:40:22.600 --> 00:40:23.380
 he's so

00:40:23.380 --> 00:40:23.760
 giving

00:40:23.760 --> 00:40:24.220
 it's almost

00:40:24.220 --> 00:40:24.539
 like a

00:40:24.539 --> 00:40:25.059
 problem

00:40:25.059 --> 00:40:25.480
 wouldn't

00:40:25.480 --> 00:40:25.800
 that be

00:40:25.800 --> 00:40:27.400
 the error

00:40:27.400 --> 00:40:27.880
 we'd like

00:40:27.880 --> 00:40:28.380
 to have

00:40:28.380 --> 00:40:29.400
 to be

00:40:29.400 --> 00:40:29.960
 known for

00:40:29.960 --> 00:40:33.599
 let's

00:40:33.599 --> 00:40:33.980
 stand

00:40:33.980 --> 00:40:34.659
 and bow

00:40:34.659 --> 00:40:34.980
 our heads

00:40:34.980 --> 00:40:35.400
 in prayer

00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:45.099
 and if

00:40:45.099 --> 00:40:45.599
 you're here

00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:45.920
 or you're

00:40:45.920 --> 00:40:46.260
 watching

00:40:46.260 --> 00:40:46.699
 online

00:40:46.699 --> 00:40:48.400
 and if

00:40:48.400 --> 00:40:48.679
 you'd like

00:40:48.679 --> 00:40:48.960
 to know

00:40:48.960 --> 00:40:49.559
 more about

00:40:49.559 --> 00:40:50.579
 Jesus

00:40:50.579 --> 00:40:51.780
 let us

00:40:51.780 --> 00:40:52.019
 know

00:40:52.019 --> 00:40:52.720
 we'd love

00:40:52.720 --> 00:40:54.059
 to connect

00:40:54.059 --> 00:40:54.460
 you with

00:40:54.460 --> 00:40:54.960
 some people

00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:55.340
 who could

00:40:55.340 --> 00:40:55.860
 just walk

00:40:55.860 --> 00:40:56.260
 with you

00:40:56.260 --> 00:40:56.480
 as you

00:40:56.480 --> 00:40:56.900
 maybe look

00:40:56.900 --> 00:40:57.099
 at one

00:40:57.099 --> 00:40:57.280
 of the

00:40:57.280 --> 00:40:57.800
 gospels

00:40:57.800 --> 00:40:58.159
 Mark

00:40:58.159 --> 00:40:58.619
 or John

00:40:58.619 --> 00:40:59.559
 and talk

00:40:59.559 --> 00:40:59.940
 it through

00:40:59.940 --> 00:41:00.240
 so you

00:41:00.240 --> 00:41:00.559
 get to

00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:00.740
 know

00:41:00.740 --> 00:41:01.019
 him

00:41:01.019 --> 00:41:01.920
 and

00:41:01.920 --> 00:41:02.559
 maybe

00:41:02.559 --> 00:41:02.980
 it is

00:41:02.980 --> 00:41:03.460
 that you've

00:41:03.460 --> 00:41:04.139
 never really

00:41:04.139 --> 00:41:04.860
 considered

00:41:04.860 --> 00:41:05.260
 Christ

00:41:05.260 --> 00:41:05.659
 but now

00:41:05.659 --> 00:41:06.119
 you feel

00:41:06.119 --> 00:41:06.400
 maybe

00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:06.780
 that you

00:41:06.780 --> 00:41:06.960
 should

00:41:06.960 --> 00:41:07.340
