00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:12.540
 I want you to turn your Bible this morning to John chapter 1.

00:00:12.540 --> 00:00:20.800
 We are going to be studying the passage beginning in verse 29, John chapter 1 verse 29, and carrying

00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:20.800


00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:40.880
 a lobby. We have a collection of Gospels of John, and these Gospels put together by the,

00:00:41.060 --> 00:00:51.640
 what league is that, Pastor? Do you remember? New Pocket Testament League. Anyway, an excellent

00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:57.140
 little Gospel of John, and one of the things that we are encouraging all of you to do is

00:00:57.140 --> 00:01:02.640
 prayerfully take one of those and then look for an opportunity where you can give it to someone

00:01:02.640 --> 00:01:08.420
 in a personal way, not just kind of a drive-by shooting. You know, I threw a Gospel at you across

00:01:08.420 --> 00:01:15.240
 the lobby or something like that, but make a connection and make a prayerful focus and give

00:01:15.240 --> 00:01:20.780
 the person a Gospel of John and then follow up on it. And what I want to do is about a month or so

00:01:20.780 --> 00:01:26.900
 from now, I'd like to kind of gather some of the stories, the little vignettes of how

00:01:26.900 --> 00:01:33.900
 God has been using these Gospels in the lives of the people that you have been sharing them with.

00:01:33.980 --> 00:01:41.560
 Instead of having recitations of various parts of the Gospel of John, we're going to share

00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:48.400
 stories of how the Gospel of John, having given it to other people and encouraging them to focus and

00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:52.660
 read that book, that's making it different in their lives. Well, let's look, if you will,

00:01:52.659 --> 00:01:59.259
 at John chapter 1 and we begin in verse 29, and I'm going to read the passage just to set it in your

00:01:59.259 --> 00:02:05.219
 thinking and in your mind and then ask that you join with me in prayer as we take this text to hand.

00:02:06.500 --> 00:02:10.979
 The next day, he saw Jesus coming toward him and said,

00:02:10.979 --> 00:02:15.659
 Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.

00:02:19.060 --> 00:02:20.099
 Heavenly Father,

00:02:21.979 --> 00:02:26.019
 we are thankful

00:02:26.019 --> 00:02:30.839
 for the undeserved blessing that we have

00:02:30.839 --> 00:02:33.620
 of being your children,

00:02:33.620 --> 00:02:37.759
 of having the Word of God in our hand

00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:40.580
 and having the

00:02:40.580 --> 00:02:43.599
 indwelling Spirit whose ministry

00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:44.640
 includes

00:02:44.640 --> 00:02:47.780
 helping us comprehend

00:02:47.780 --> 00:02:51.180
 the Scriptures

00:02:51.180 --> 00:02:53.620
 and helping us

00:02:53.620 --> 00:02:55.460
 grow in our understanding

00:02:55.460 --> 00:02:57.780
 of the glory and preeminence of Christ.

00:02:57.780 --> 00:02:57.860
 Christ.

00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.199
 And so we, without apology

00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:03.580
 and with confidence,

00:03:03.860 --> 00:03:06.099
 ask that the Holy Spirit would work

00:03:06.099 --> 00:03:07.460
 to give to us

00:03:07.460 --> 00:03:10.479
 understanding and a growing affection for the Lord Jesus

00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:11.860
 and that that

00:03:11.860 --> 00:03:14.000
 understanding and growing affection

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:14.780
 would end up

00:03:14.780 --> 00:03:16.620
 being an effective part

00:03:16.620 --> 00:03:19.460
 of the witness that you have called us to be.

00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:23.000
 And we ask this in Jesus' name.

00:03:23.819 --> 00:03:24.139
 Amen.

00:03:24.139 --> 00:03:24.259
 Amen.

00:03:24.259 --> 00:03:27.939
 Well, as we take the passage in hand

00:03:27.939 --> 00:03:30.739
 and we are looking at the second part

00:03:30.739 --> 00:03:32.899
 of the opening statement

00:03:32.899 --> 00:03:33.780
 that is made

00:03:33.780 --> 00:03:35.620
 after the prelude.

00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:36.139
 The prelude

00:03:36.139 --> 00:03:37.560
 is the part where

00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:38.899
 the Apostle

00:03:38.899 --> 00:03:40.159
 basically introduces

00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:41.959
 all of the book of John

00:03:41.959 --> 00:03:44.039
 in kind of a broad outline fashion.

00:03:44.699 --> 00:03:46.539
 And in verses 1 through 18,

00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:48.019
 we have there

00:03:48.019 --> 00:03:49.439
 all the different parts

00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:50.759
 that the remainder of the book

00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:51.560
 is going to cover.

00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:55.080
 Early in John's gospel

00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:55.979
 in chapter 1,

00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:57.199
 we were reminded

00:03:57.199 --> 00:03:57.840
 of the fact

00:03:57.840 --> 00:03:59.699
 that God sent

00:03:59.699 --> 00:04:01.099
 John the Baptist

00:04:01.099 --> 00:04:03.420
 in front of the Lord Jesus Christ

00:04:03.420 --> 00:04:04.340
 and his ministry

00:04:04.340 --> 00:04:05.719
 was, in essence,

00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:07.000
 kind of as an announcer,

00:04:07.300 --> 00:04:09.199
 as a person explaining

00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:12.159
 the coming of the important individual,

00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:13.759
 namely the Messiah,

00:04:14.180 --> 00:04:15.020
 the one who would be

00:04:15.020 --> 00:04:16.060
 the Savior of the world.

00:04:16.860 --> 00:04:18.560
 And we saw last week

00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:20.060
 that one of the things

00:04:20.060 --> 00:04:21.079
 that characterized

00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:22.939
 John the Baptist's ministry

00:04:22.939 --> 00:04:25.079
 was that he was faithful

00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:26.280
 as a witness.

00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:28.160
 One of the things

00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:29.040
 that I trust

00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:29.899
 was kind of stuck

00:04:29.899 --> 00:04:31.079
 in your mind

00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:31.519
 was this,

00:04:31.579 --> 00:04:33.019
 is that John the Baptist

00:04:33.019 --> 00:04:34.060
 in his ministry

00:04:34.060 --> 00:04:35.519
 was all about Jesus,

00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:36.959
 not about himself.

00:04:37.579 --> 00:04:38.699
 And I want you to understand

00:04:38.699 --> 00:04:40.040
 that whenever we share

00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:41.079
 our story,

00:04:41.340 --> 00:04:42.740
 if we are sharing it

00:04:42.740 --> 00:04:43.620
 from the perspective

00:04:43.620 --> 00:04:45.160
 that John the Baptist

00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:46.620
 engaged in sharing it,

00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:47.740
 we're not the hero

00:04:47.740 --> 00:04:48.540
 of our story.

00:04:48.540 --> 00:04:50.180
 We are always pointing

00:04:50.180 --> 00:04:51.580
 to the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:52.819
 who is the one

00:04:52.819 --> 00:04:54.460
 and only Savior

00:04:54.460 --> 00:04:55.200
 of the world

00:04:55.200 --> 00:04:56.720
 and the one who I trust

00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:58.100
 has made all the difference

00:04:58.100 --> 00:04:59.280
 in your life.

00:05:00.340 --> 00:05:01.980
 With that as background,

00:05:02.300 --> 00:05:03.480
 we see, first of all,

00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:04.600
 as we saw actually,

00:05:05.080 --> 00:05:06.600
 that the first part tells us

00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:07.520
 that John was

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:08.860
 a faithful witness.

00:05:09.320 --> 00:05:10.820
 Now, what we want to see

00:05:10.820 --> 00:05:12.060
 in these verses

00:05:12.060 --> 00:05:14.759
 is what John witnessed about.

00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.000
 And if you want to know

00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:17.860
 in advance

00:05:17.860 --> 00:05:18.659
 or you want to make

00:05:18.659 --> 00:05:19.620
 a note in your Bible

00:05:19.620 --> 00:05:20.879
 so that you can kind of

00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:21.680
 have these things

00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:23.240
 firmly fixed in your mind

00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:24.579
 and understand,

00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:26.959
 one of the underlying purposes

00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:28.039
 of preaching

00:05:28.039 --> 00:05:29.399
 the Gospel of John

00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:31.139
 is that it helps you

00:05:31.139 --> 00:05:32.279
 to be more effective

00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:34.420
 in what God's called us to be.

00:05:34.500 --> 00:05:35.639
 What have He called you to be?

00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:36.980
 He's called you to be

00:05:36.980 --> 00:05:38.159
 just like John the Baptist

00:05:38.159 --> 00:05:39.899
 and a witness

00:05:39.899 --> 00:05:41.439
 to the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:42.779
 And so if we're going

00:05:42.779 --> 00:05:43.920
 to be effective as a witness,

00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:44.980
 we need to understand

00:05:44.980 --> 00:05:47.040
 that what John the Baptist does

00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:48.319
 is model,

00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:51.740
 model the characteristics

00:05:51.740 --> 00:05:53.240
 of what should be said.

00:05:53.339 --> 00:05:53.819
 Number one,

00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:55.560
 we find out that Jesus

00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:56.860
 is the Lamb of God

00:05:56.860 --> 00:05:59.740
 and He came to make sacrifice

00:05:59.740 --> 00:06:01.040
 for our sins.

00:06:01.220 --> 00:06:02.339
 Without question,

00:06:02.740 --> 00:06:04.600
 when we share our testimony,

00:06:04.939 --> 00:06:05.980
 front and center

00:06:05.980 --> 00:06:06.959
 to our testimony

00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:07.560
 is the fact

00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:09.019
 that we had to come

00:06:09.019 --> 00:06:09.540
 to the point

00:06:09.540 --> 00:06:10.639
 of recognizing

00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:11.839
 that we were sinners

00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:13.319
 deserving the judgment

00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:13.899
 of God

00:06:13.899 --> 00:06:15.759
 and yet God sent His Son,

00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:16.839
 the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:18.800
 who died in what?

00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:20.079
 In our place.

00:06:20.159 --> 00:06:21.680
 He died for my sins

00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:22.879
 and He satisfied

00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:23.699
 God's judgment

00:06:23.699 --> 00:06:24.659
 against my sins.

00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:27.120
 Jesus is the Lamb of God.

00:06:27.219 --> 00:06:27.639
 Number two

00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:28.639
 that we're going to see

00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:30.560
 is that Jesus is the Savior.

00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:32.019
 The only one

00:06:32.019 --> 00:06:33.319
 who can really save us

00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:34.839
 is the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:36.659
 Salvation is not something

00:06:36.659 --> 00:06:37.439
 that takes place

00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:38.699
 because you grew up

00:06:38.699 --> 00:06:39.360
 in a good home

00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:40.500
 or you were a good person

00:06:40.500 --> 00:06:41.439
 or you've done

00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:42.480
 a lot of nice things

00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:43.100
 and you've helped

00:06:43.100 --> 00:06:44.879
 different situations.

00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:46.160
 You got a lot of...

00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:47.120
 You're a good person.

00:06:47.220 --> 00:06:48.319
 That's not what gets us

00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:48.740
 to heaven.

00:06:49.980 --> 00:06:51.100
 Salvation is only

00:06:51.100 --> 00:06:52.460
 of the Lord Jesus Christ

00:06:52.460 --> 00:06:53.819
 and He is the Savior

00:06:53.819 --> 00:06:54.360
 of the world.

00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:54.819
 Third,

00:06:55.180 --> 00:06:56.600
 we are going to be reminded

00:06:56.600 --> 00:06:57.400
 of the fact,

00:06:57.460 --> 00:06:58.500
 and listen to this carefully,

00:06:58.980 --> 00:07:01.139
 that Jesus is the Son of God

00:07:01.139 --> 00:07:03.139
 and in making that statement,

00:07:03.300 --> 00:07:04.120
 we are affirming

00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:06.100
 the glory and the supremacy

00:07:06.100 --> 00:07:08.140
 of the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:07:08.280 --> 00:07:08.920
 Lord of Lord,

00:07:09.080 --> 00:07:09.760
 King of Kings,

00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:12.580
 the one who we will enjoy

00:07:12.580 --> 00:07:15.580
 and adore and worship forever.

00:07:16.300 --> 00:07:18.020
 And as you think about these things,

00:07:18.080 --> 00:07:18.700
 I want you to push

00:07:18.700 --> 00:07:19.500
 these things together

00:07:19.500 --> 00:07:20.660
 and have them clearly

00:07:20.660 --> 00:07:21.360
 in your mind,

00:07:21.620 --> 00:07:22.220
 the Lamb,

00:07:22.900 --> 00:07:23.480
 the Savior,

00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:25.340
 and the Sovereign.

00:07:26.180 --> 00:07:27.680
 Now with that in mind,

00:07:27.780 --> 00:07:28.720
 I want you to pick up,

00:07:28.820 --> 00:07:29.300
 if you will,

00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:30.379
 and see first of all,

00:07:30.460 --> 00:07:31.400
 there in verse 29,

00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:35.019
 that Jesus is sin's sacrifice.

00:07:36.239 --> 00:07:37.759
 Jesus coming towards Him,

00:07:38.159 --> 00:07:39.219
 John the Baptist says,

00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:39.839
 behold,

00:07:40.259 --> 00:07:41.279
 the Lamb of God

00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:42.439
 who takes away

00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:44.279
 the sins of the world.

00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:46.319
 The very next day

00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:47.759
 after John the Baptist

00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:48.919
 had that delegation

00:07:48.919 --> 00:07:50.079
 come from Jerusalem

00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:51.899
 and the delegation said,

00:07:52.039 --> 00:07:52.599
 all right, all right,

00:07:52.639 --> 00:07:53.620
 we want to know who you are

00:07:53.620 --> 00:07:54.259
 and what you're doing.

00:07:54.379 --> 00:07:55.139
 I mean, after all,

00:07:55.459 --> 00:07:56.519
 you don't have a degree

00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:58.159
 from us here in Jerusalem.

00:07:58.500 --> 00:07:59.899
 What is going on?

00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:01.279
 And they said,

00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:03.059
 are you the Messiah?

00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:04.619
 Well, no, I'm not.

00:08:05.059 --> 00:08:06.979
 Are you that prophet?

00:08:07.219 --> 00:08:08.339
 Are you Elijah?

00:08:08.699 --> 00:08:09.659
 And in each case,

00:08:10.059 --> 00:08:11.039
 John the Baptist said,

00:08:11.179 --> 00:08:12.000
 no, I'm not.

00:08:12.119 --> 00:08:12.879
 No, I'm not.

00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:13.659
 And he said,

00:08:13.719 --> 00:08:14.919
 in very, very simple terms,

00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:15.239
 he says,

00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:16.159
 I want you to understand

00:08:16.159 --> 00:08:17.179
 all I am

00:08:17.179 --> 00:08:18.279
 is somebody

00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:19.379
 who's kind of walking

00:08:19.379 --> 00:08:20.099
 in front,

00:08:20.299 --> 00:08:22.199
 well in front of the king.

00:08:22.259 --> 00:08:22.699
 I'm a little bit

00:08:22.699 --> 00:08:23.679
 like a road worker

00:08:23.679 --> 00:08:25.679
 who is out there

00:08:25.679 --> 00:08:26.799
 kind of saying to people,

00:08:26.919 --> 00:08:29.139
 hey, make the road clear

00:08:29.139 --> 00:08:31.039
 because the king is coming.

00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:33.100
 He'll be here soon.

00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:36.340
 The very next day

00:08:36.340 --> 00:08:37.399
 after making this

00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:38.759
 very humble statement

00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:40.200
 about who he was,

00:08:40.820 --> 00:08:41.500
 John the Baptist

00:08:41.500 --> 00:08:43.159
 sees Jesus coming

00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:44.500
 and he makes this

00:08:44.500 --> 00:08:45.840
 unbelievable statement.

00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:47.420
 There in verse 29,

00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:47.879
 he says,

00:08:48.259 --> 00:08:48.279
 look,

00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:49.899
 look,

00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:51.100
 and I want you

00:08:51.100 --> 00:08:51.960
 to understand that

00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:53.820
 the way in which

00:08:53.820 --> 00:08:55.139
 the text frames it

00:08:55.139 --> 00:08:56.820
 is that John the Baptist,

00:08:56.960 --> 00:08:57.600
 here he was going

00:08:57.600 --> 00:08:58.740
 about his normal business,

00:08:58.740 --> 00:08:59.560
 and he kind of looks up

00:08:59.560 --> 00:08:59.840
 and he says,

00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:00.519
 whoa,

00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:01.700
 there he is,

00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:02.480
 that's him.

00:09:03.560 --> 00:09:04.659
 And I trust that one

00:09:04.659 --> 00:09:05.460
 of the characteristics

00:09:05.460 --> 00:09:06.740
 of your testimony,

00:09:07.820 --> 00:09:09.340
 and we're always engaged

00:09:09.340 --> 00:09:10.039
 in testifying,

00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:10.940
 do you realize that?

00:09:11.019 --> 00:09:11.720
 Every day,

00:09:12.159 --> 00:09:13.299
 every place we are,

00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:14.620
 we are either being

00:09:14.620 --> 00:09:15.460
 a good testimony

00:09:15.460 --> 00:09:16.399
 or a bad testimony.

00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:18.720
 And being a good testimony

00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:19.940
 means drawing attention

00:09:19.940 --> 00:09:21.080
 to the Lord Jesus Christ

00:09:21.080 --> 00:09:21.860
 and that's exactly

00:09:21.860 --> 00:09:23.139
 what John the Baptist does.

00:09:23.139 --> 00:09:23.899
 He says,

00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:24.799
 behold,

00:09:25.059 --> 00:09:25.460
 look,

00:09:26.059 --> 00:09:27.220
 the Lamb of God

00:09:27.220 --> 00:09:28.879
 who takes away

00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:30.779
 the sin of the world.

00:09:31.620 --> 00:09:32.639
 In an instant,

00:09:33.460 --> 00:09:35.100
 John's message changed

00:09:35.100 --> 00:09:36.840
 from get ready,

00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:37.720
 he's coming,

00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:39.720
 to here he is.

00:09:39.980 --> 00:09:41.600
 This is the one.

00:09:42.460 --> 00:09:43.059
 And I want you

00:09:43.059 --> 00:09:43.919
 to remember that

00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:45.679
 up to this point,

00:09:45.980 --> 00:09:46.720
 John's preaching

00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.139
 had exposed sin.

00:09:48.220 --> 00:09:49.019
 That's what he'd been doing.

00:09:49.819 --> 00:09:51.240
 Make no mistake about it,

00:09:51.259 --> 00:09:52.539
 as John the Baptist preached,

00:09:52.539 --> 00:09:53.519
 people were convicted

00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:54.519
 of the things

00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:55.319
 that were going on

00:09:55.319 --> 00:09:55.879
 in their lives

00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:56.620
 that were wrong.

00:09:57.279 --> 00:09:58.779
 They were convicted

00:09:58.779 --> 00:09:59.579
 of the darkness

00:09:59.579 --> 00:10:00.219
 of their life.

00:10:00.319 --> 00:10:00.939
 They were convicted

00:10:00.939 --> 00:10:02.259
 of the ugliness

00:10:02.259 --> 00:10:02.959
 and the shame

00:10:02.959 --> 00:10:04.500
 and the horror

00:10:04.500 --> 00:10:05.579
 of what they really

00:10:05.579 --> 00:10:06.459
 were inside.

00:10:07.339 --> 00:10:08.259
 And John the Baptist,

00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:09.719
 as a result of his preaching,

00:10:09.839 --> 00:10:10.699
 he had many, many people

00:10:10.699 --> 00:10:11.339
 come and say,

00:10:11.659 --> 00:10:12.519
 I need to be baptized.

00:10:12.779 --> 00:10:13.459
 That baptism

00:10:13.459 --> 00:10:15.039
 was not a baptism

00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:15.699
 that had anything

00:10:15.699 --> 00:10:16.659
 to do with salvation.

00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:18.259
 It was just a baptism

00:10:18.259 --> 00:10:19.919
 that was a public recognition

00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:21.279
 of the need

00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:22.439
 of their soul

00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:23.660
 for a redeemer.

00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:25.960
 And so here it is,

00:10:26.060 --> 00:10:26.600
 in the midst

00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:27.480
 of this process

00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:28.740
 of baptizing people,

00:10:29.140 --> 00:10:30.200
 that John the Baptist

00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:30.940
 stands up

00:10:30.940 --> 00:10:31.400
 and he says,

00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:33.660
 Jesus is God's Lamb

00:10:33.660 --> 00:10:35.520
 who will be sacrificed

00:10:35.520 --> 00:10:36.680
 for your sin.

00:10:38.020 --> 00:10:39.720
 Make no mistake about it.

00:10:40.940 --> 00:10:42.860
 Jesus did not die

00:10:42.860 --> 00:10:44.460
 just for a short list

00:10:44.460 --> 00:10:46.300
 of certain kinds of sins.

00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:48.280
 We have a tendency,

00:10:48.520 --> 00:10:49.680
 when we think about sin,

00:10:49.679 --> 00:10:51.899
 to think in terms of sins

00:10:51.899 --> 00:10:52.919
 that other people do

00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:53.939
 that are pretty bad.

00:10:54.899 --> 00:10:55.479
 I mean,

00:10:55.559 --> 00:10:56.539
 it's a nice thing

00:10:56.539 --> 00:10:57.419
 and I hope it's true

00:10:57.419 --> 00:10:58.399
 that none of us

00:10:58.399 --> 00:10:59.099
 sitting in here

00:10:59.099 --> 00:11:00.339
 have done the filthy five

00:11:00.339 --> 00:11:01.339
 or the nasty nine.

00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:01.679
 You know,

00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:02.659
 we're not,

00:11:02.759 --> 00:11:03.959
 we don't do those things,

00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:04.319
 you know,

00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:05.620
 and we have an idea

00:11:05.620 --> 00:11:06.199
 that, well,

00:11:06.299 --> 00:11:07.779
 there are some really bad sins

00:11:07.779 --> 00:11:08.399
 and, yeah,

00:11:08.479 --> 00:11:09.099
 those are things

00:11:09.099 --> 00:11:10.519
 that Jesus had to die for,

00:11:10.599 --> 00:11:11.599
 but the rest of them,

00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:11.839
 you know,

00:11:11.899 --> 00:11:12.899
 they're all kind of okay.

00:11:13.059 --> 00:11:13.319
 No.

00:11:14.179 --> 00:11:14.980
 Very interesting

00:11:14.980 --> 00:11:15.840
 that it says here,

00:11:16.259 --> 00:11:17.559
 Jesus came to be

00:11:17.559 --> 00:11:18.459
 the Lamb of God

00:11:18.459 --> 00:11:19.679
 who takes away

00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:21.679
 the sin of the,

00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:22.439
 not sins,

00:11:22.939 --> 00:11:23.379
 sin.

00:11:24.100 --> 00:11:25.379
 Talking about all of it,

00:11:25.759 --> 00:11:26.379
 the disease,

00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:27.600
 not just some of the symptoms.

00:11:28.819 --> 00:11:29.199
 And so,

00:11:29.299 --> 00:11:30.980
 as we look at the issue

00:11:30.980 --> 00:11:31.799
 of what the Bible

00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:32.659
 has to say,

00:11:32.919 --> 00:11:33.779
 we recognize

00:11:33.779 --> 00:11:34.600
 the Bible is very,

00:11:34.699 --> 00:11:35.199
 very clear

00:11:35.199 --> 00:11:36.259
 about what sin is.

00:11:36.319 --> 00:11:37.120
 I want you to think with me

00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:37.779
 just for a moment

00:11:37.779 --> 00:11:39.319
 to Romans chapter 6,

00:11:39.379 --> 00:11:40.019
 verse 23.

00:11:40.199 --> 00:11:40.759
 Take a look at it

00:11:40.759 --> 00:11:41.139
 if you will.

00:11:41.139 --> 00:11:42.759
 Romans,

00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:43.899
 you're there in John,

00:11:44.019 --> 00:11:44.779
 so turn ahead

00:11:44.779 --> 00:11:45.639
 just for a second.

00:11:46.460 --> 00:11:47.419
 And incidentally,

00:11:47.500 --> 00:11:48.779
 as we are doing this,

00:11:48.860 --> 00:11:50.279
 let me explain again.

00:11:51.779 --> 00:11:52.960
 One of the purposes

00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:55.159
 of studying the book of John

00:11:55.159 --> 00:11:56.720
 is that the believer

00:11:56.720 --> 00:11:57.720
 would be edified.

00:11:57.860 --> 00:11:58.600
 Do you know what that means?

00:11:58.740 --> 00:11:59.840
 That we as believers

00:11:59.840 --> 00:12:01.179
 would grow in our affection

00:12:01.179 --> 00:12:02.139
 for the Lord Jesus.

00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:04.340
 Another purpose

00:12:04.340 --> 00:12:06.659
 is that we would be encouraged

00:12:06.659 --> 00:12:07.899
 in our evangelism.

00:12:07.899 --> 00:12:08.279
 And so,

00:12:09.220 --> 00:12:10.620
 as we study

00:12:10.620 --> 00:12:12.019
 John's gospel,

00:12:12.500 --> 00:12:13.019
 there should be,

00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:13.799
 oh, man,

00:12:13.899 --> 00:12:14.840
 that's how to do it.

00:12:15.500 --> 00:12:16.940
 That's what he wants me to do.

00:12:17.820 --> 00:12:18.259
 And so,

00:12:18.419 --> 00:12:19.500
 we're dealing with

00:12:19.500 --> 00:12:21.019
 Jesus is the Lamb of God

00:12:21.019 --> 00:12:21.639
 who takes away

00:12:21.639 --> 00:12:22.240
 the sin

00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:23.259
 of the world.

00:12:23.580 --> 00:12:24.580
 Romans chapter 6,

00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:25.240
 verse 23,

00:12:25.419 --> 00:12:26.740
 for the wages of sin

00:12:26.740 --> 00:12:28.080
 is death.

00:12:28.980 --> 00:12:29.799
 What's the penalty

00:12:29.799 --> 00:12:30.440
 for sin?

00:12:31.139 --> 00:12:31.779
 It's death.

00:12:32.220 --> 00:12:33.480
 How bad is sin?

00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:35.360
 It is incredibly horrible.

00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:37.039
 And it's amazing

00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:37.940
 that we sometimes

00:12:37.940 --> 00:12:38.860
 kind of think of sin

00:12:38.860 --> 00:12:39.700
 as being just something

00:12:39.700 --> 00:12:40.620
 normal and natural

00:12:40.620 --> 00:12:41.399
 and, well,

00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:41.720
 you know,

00:12:41.779 --> 00:12:42.759
 God ought to overlook it.

00:12:42.800 --> 00:12:43.800
 But I want you to understand

00:12:43.800 --> 00:12:45.419
 the holiness of God

00:12:45.419 --> 00:12:47.419
 cannot overlook sin

00:12:47.419 --> 00:12:49.019
 without compromising

00:12:49.019 --> 00:12:49.820
 his justice

00:12:49.820 --> 00:12:51.039
 and his holiness.

00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:53.519
 And as we see here

00:12:53.519 --> 00:12:54.200
 in this passage,

00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:55.180
 it tells us

00:12:55.180 --> 00:12:56.460
 that sin,

00:12:56.620 --> 00:12:57.360
 which is a rebellion

00:12:57.360 --> 00:12:58.399
 against the sovereign

00:12:58.399 --> 00:12:59.240
 and holy God,

00:12:59.320 --> 00:12:59.960
 brings death.

00:12:59.960 --> 00:13:02.860
 As I was thinking

00:13:02.860 --> 00:13:03.759
 earlier this week

00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:04.639
 about this subject

00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:05.240
 of sin

00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:06.220
 and the consequences

00:13:06.220 --> 00:13:06.800
 it brings,

00:13:07.259 --> 00:13:08.300
 I was kind of struck

00:13:08.300 --> 00:13:09.620
 by actually reading

00:13:09.620 --> 00:13:10.780
 a little post

00:13:10.780 --> 00:13:11.360
 on Facebook

00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:12.720
 by one of the individuals

00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:13.300
 that I've known

00:13:13.300 --> 00:13:14.200
 for many, many years,

00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:15.360
 used to be a pastor,

00:13:15.460 --> 00:13:16.280
 no longer involved

00:13:16.280 --> 00:13:16.800
 in ministry,

00:13:17.040 --> 00:13:18.019
 and he was making

00:13:18.019 --> 00:13:18.879
 a comment about

00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:19.560
 the fact that

00:13:19.560 --> 00:13:21.160
 hell is just

00:13:21.160 --> 00:13:22.019
 something that

00:13:22.019 --> 00:13:23.320
 angry people believe in.

00:13:24.780 --> 00:13:25.700
 And I thought to myself

00:13:25.700 --> 00:13:26.340
 as I read through

00:13:26.340 --> 00:13:26.860
 his post

00:13:26.860 --> 00:13:27.420
 and the notes

00:13:27.420 --> 00:13:28.040
 attended to it,

00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:28.300
 I thought,

00:13:28.379 --> 00:13:28.560
 you know,

00:13:28.920 --> 00:13:29.780
 sadly enough,

00:13:29.960 --> 00:13:31.000
 to make that kind

00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:31.460
 of statement

00:13:31.460 --> 00:13:32.720
 indicts Jesus as well.

00:13:32.820 --> 00:13:33.519
 Do you understand

00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:35.139
 that Jesus was the one

00:13:35.139 --> 00:13:36.540
 that talked the most

00:13:36.540 --> 00:13:38.100
 about hell?

00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:40.019
 And the reason

00:13:40.019 --> 00:13:41.460
 Jesus came into the world

00:13:41.460 --> 00:13:43.300
 was to keep people

00:13:43.300 --> 00:13:45.139
 from going to hell

00:13:45.139 --> 00:13:46.639
 by paying the penalty

00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:47.639
 for their sin.

00:13:48.300 --> 00:13:49.040
 And this person

00:13:49.040 --> 00:13:49.860
 was talking about

00:13:49.860 --> 00:13:51.280
 how can sin be so bad?

00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:51.800
 Well, I want you

00:13:51.800 --> 00:13:52.420
 to understand,

00:13:52.920 --> 00:13:54.500
 if what you are doing

00:13:54.500 --> 00:13:55.820
 is comparing sin

00:13:55.820 --> 00:13:56.660
 and its effect

00:13:56.660 --> 00:13:58.500
 upon us as sinners,

00:13:58.500 --> 00:14:00.879
 it's not quite

00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:01.899
 as significant

00:14:01.899 --> 00:14:03.139
 as comparing

00:14:03.139 --> 00:14:04.179
 the offense

00:14:04.179 --> 00:14:05.519
 that sin is

00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:06.539
 to the holiness

00:14:06.539 --> 00:14:07.220
 of God.

00:14:08.259 --> 00:14:09.659
 Sin is supremely

00:14:09.659 --> 00:14:10.740
 offensive to God.

00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:12.460
 It is unbelievably

00:14:12.460 --> 00:14:13.139
 offensive.

00:14:13.700 --> 00:14:14.000
 And so,

00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:14.879
 here is Jesus

00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:15.879
 willing to take

00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:17.299
 the penalty for us

00:14:17.299 --> 00:14:18.019
 and to die

00:14:18.019 --> 00:14:18.620
 in our place.

00:14:18.659 --> 00:14:19.059
 And it says,

00:14:19.179 --> 00:14:20.059
 wages of sin or death,

00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:21.840
 but the free gift

00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:22.419
 of God

00:14:22.419 --> 00:14:24.080
 is eternal life

00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:24.899
 in Jesus Christ,

00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:25.440
 our Lord.

00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:27.040
 For another,

00:14:27.200 --> 00:14:28.060
 as we see there,

00:14:28.300 --> 00:14:29.320
 God sent his son

00:14:29.320 --> 00:14:30.880
 to make full payment

00:14:30.880 --> 00:14:31.660
 for our sins.

00:14:31.740 --> 00:14:32.260
 When it says,

00:14:32.660 --> 00:14:33.780
 the free gift of God

00:14:33.780 --> 00:14:35.140
 is eternal life

00:14:35.140 --> 00:14:35.940
 through Jesus Christ,

00:14:36.300 --> 00:14:37.340
 it's not just giving

00:14:37.340 --> 00:14:38.080
 all the details

00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:38.660
 of the cross,

00:14:38.700 --> 00:14:39.760
 but it's speaking of it

00:14:39.760 --> 00:14:41.660
 in kind of generalized terms.

00:14:41.820 --> 00:14:42.440
 How is it

00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:43.740
 that God could give us

00:14:43.740 --> 00:14:44.900
 the gift of salvation?

00:14:45.900 --> 00:14:47.000
 It is not by

00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:47.820
 overlooking

00:14:47.820 --> 00:14:48.700
 our sin.

00:14:49.740 --> 00:14:50.800
 His judgment

00:14:50.800 --> 00:14:51.800
 and his holiness

00:14:51.800 --> 00:14:53.460
 could not do that.

00:14:53.460 --> 00:14:55.300
 It is because

00:14:55.300 --> 00:14:56.440
 he was willing

00:14:56.440 --> 00:14:57.560
 to sacrifice

00:14:57.560 --> 00:14:58.780
 his son

00:14:58.780 --> 00:15:00.820
 for our sins

00:15:00.820 --> 00:15:02.360
 that he is able

00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:03.100
 to give to us

00:15:03.100 --> 00:15:04.240
 the gift of salvation.

00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:05.560
 So,

00:15:05.740 --> 00:15:06.960
 what Romans chapter 6

00:15:06.960 --> 00:15:07.620
 verse 23

00:15:07.620 --> 00:15:08.480
 summarizes,

00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:09.519
 John introduced

00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:10.720
 to the stunning

00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:11.620
 Jewish audience

00:15:11.620 --> 00:15:12.440
 that was listening

00:15:12.440 --> 00:15:12.900
 to him.

00:15:13.379 --> 00:15:14.160
 The theme

00:15:14.160 --> 00:15:15.860
 of God providing

00:15:15.860 --> 00:15:17.080
 a substitute

00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:18.120
 for our sin

00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:19.940
 actually flows

00:15:19.940 --> 00:15:20.519
 throughout

00:15:20.519 --> 00:15:21.580
 the Old Testament.

00:15:21.780 --> 00:15:22.139
 It is not

00:15:22.139 --> 00:15:22.860
 a new surprise.

00:15:23.460 --> 00:15:23.920
 Now,

00:15:23.960 --> 00:15:24.700
 I have to tell you,

00:15:25.019 --> 00:15:26.000
 I have no doubt

00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:27.440
 that when John the Baptist

00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:29.420
 made that statement,

00:15:29.560 --> 00:15:30.800
 behold the Lamb of God

00:15:30.800 --> 00:15:31.500
 that takes away

00:15:31.500 --> 00:15:32.540
 the sin of the world,

00:15:32.700 --> 00:15:33.700
 it must have been

00:15:33.700 --> 00:15:35.280
 stunning to his audience.

00:15:36.500 --> 00:15:37.519
 But think with me

00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:38.860
 about the theme

00:15:38.860 --> 00:15:40.700
 and you can go back

00:15:40.700 --> 00:15:41.700
 to the book of Genesis

00:15:41.700 --> 00:15:42.379
 and remember

00:15:42.379 --> 00:15:43.300
 that when sin

00:15:43.300 --> 00:15:44.340
 entered the world

00:15:44.340 --> 00:15:45.300
 through the sin

00:15:45.300 --> 00:15:45.879
 of Adam

00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:47.620
 that God provided

00:15:47.620 --> 00:15:48.980
 a clothing

00:15:48.980 --> 00:15:49.900
 and a covering

00:15:49.900 --> 00:15:51.620
 for the nakedness

00:15:51.620 --> 00:15:52.480
 that sin

00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:54.500
 exposed in men's lives

00:15:54.500 --> 00:15:55.519
 and he did that

00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:56.100
 with the skin

00:15:56.100 --> 00:15:56.740
 of animals.

00:15:57.919 --> 00:15:58.720
 Later on,

00:15:58.779 --> 00:15:59.419
 we find that

00:15:59.419 --> 00:16:01.019
 when God

00:16:01.019 --> 00:16:01.879
 called to Abraham

00:16:01.879 --> 00:16:02.279
 and said,

00:16:02.360 --> 00:16:02.820
 I want you to

00:16:02.820 --> 00:16:04.120
 sacrifice your only son,

00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:05.159
 Abraham,

00:16:05.360 --> 00:16:06.120
 as he was taking

00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:07.120
 his son up

00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:07.639
 the mountain,

00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:08.080
 he said,

00:16:08.299 --> 00:16:09.179
 God will provide

00:16:09.179 --> 00:16:09.580
 a lamb

00:16:09.580 --> 00:16:10.440
 and God provided

00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:10.899
 the ram

00:16:10.899 --> 00:16:12.139
 caught in the thicket.

00:16:12.139 --> 00:16:15.000
 and then when Israel

00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:16.299
 in the nation

00:16:16.299 --> 00:16:17.000
 of Egypt

00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:18.179
 was enduring

00:16:18.179 --> 00:16:18.899
 the hardship

00:16:18.899 --> 00:16:19.580
 that they were

00:16:19.580 --> 00:16:20.220
 going through

00:16:20.220 --> 00:16:21.399
 and God said

00:16:21.399 --> 00:16:21.860
 to them,

00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:23.319
 on this night

00:16:23.319 --> 00:16:24.059
 I am going

00:16:24.059 --> 00:16:25.100
 to bring you out

00:16:25.100 --> 00:16:25.960
 and the thing

00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:26.840
 that you are to do

00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:27.960
 is to sacrifice

00:16:27.960 --> 00:16:29.019
 a Passover lamb

00:16:29.019 --> 00:16:30.120
 and you are to put

00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:31.299
 the blood of that lamb

00:16:31.299 --> 00:16:32.439
 on the lentil

00:16:32.439 --> 00:16:33.559
 and in the doorposts

00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:34.220
 and when I see

00:16:34.220 --> 00:16:34.699
 the blood

00:16:34.699 --> 00:16:36.139
 I will pass over

00:16:36.139 --> 00:16:36.939
 that place.

00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:39.000
 The Old Testament

00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:40.080
 Jew understood

00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:42.240
 that that lamb

00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:44.259
 died as a substitute

00:16:44.259 --> 00:16:45.139
 for them

00:16:45.139 --> 00:16:46.300
 and then week

00:16:46.300 --> 00:16:46.980
 after week

00:16:46.980 --> 00:16:48.120
 time after time

00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:49.520
 when the Old Testament

00:16:49.520 --> 00:16:50.660
 saint had to deal

00:16:50.660 --> 00:16:51.100
 with sin

00:16:51.100 --> 00:16:52.360
 in a personal way

00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:54.259
 they had to sacrifice

00:16:54.259 --> 00:16:54.860
 a lamb.

00:16:55.879 --> 00:16:57.060
 They had to sacrifice

00:16:57.060 --> 00:16:57.620
 a lamb.

00:16:58.480 --> 00:16:59.320
 One of the things

00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:00.280
 that I did last week

00:17:00.280 --> 00:17:01.060
 was I actually went

00:17:01.060 --> 00:17:01.500
 to YouTube

00:17:01.500 --> 00:17:02.480
 and I watched

00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:03.160
 the sacrifice

00:17:03.160 --> 00:17:04.019
 of lambs

00:17:04.019 --> 00:17:04.880
 on YouTube.

00:17:05.059 --> 00:17:05.900
 I am not suggesting

00:17:05.900 --> 00:17:06.579
 it is for weak

00:17:06.579 --> 00:17:07.600
 of heart to do it

00:17:07.600 --> 00:17:09.660
 but it is pretty graphic.

00:17:09.660 --> 00:17:10.560
 Do you follow that?

00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:10.980
 I mean

00:17:10.980 --> 00:17:12.480
 how many of you

00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:13.080
 have ever seen

00:17:13.080 --> 00:17:13.820
 a lamb

00:17:13.820 --> 00:17:16.380
 killed by hand?

00:17:16.560 --> 00:17:17.420
 Anybody in here?

00:17:18.380 --> 00:17:20.440
 It is a sobering

00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:22.380
 process to observe

00:17:22.380 --> 00:17:24.259
 and so when

00:17:24.259 --> 00:17:25.540
 John the Baptist

00:17:25.540 --> 00:17:26.140
 said

00:17:26.140 --> 00:17:26.980
 I will explain it

00:17:26.980 --> 00:17:27.519
 to you

00:17:27.519 --> 00:17:27.900
 okay

00:17:27.900 --> 00:17:31.200
 yes

00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:31.759

00:17:32.340 --> 00:17:32.720
 please

00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:33.300
 you are going

00:17:33.300 --> 00:17:33.720
 come on

00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:34.220
 come on buddy

00:17:34.220 --> 00:17:36.160
 he has been

00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:37.220
 perpetually terrified

00:17:37.220 --> 00:17:37.779
 of me

00:17:37.779 --> 00:17:39.379
 I did

00:17:39.379 --> 00:17:40.359
 okay

00:17:40.359 --> 00:17:41.759
 come on

00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:43.759
 Noah

00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:44.259
 come

00:17:44.259 --> 00:17:51.720
 sacrificial

00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:52.119
 Noah

00:17:52.119 --> 00:17:56.920
 here is what

00:17:56.920 --> 00:17:57.279
 happened

00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:59.160
 in the Old

00:17:59.160 --> 00:17:59.559
 Testament

00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:00.839
 the person

00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:01.119
 who was

00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:01.619
 confessing

00:18:01.619 --> 00:18:02.240
 his sins

00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:03.619
 put his hand

00:18:03.619 --> 00:18:04.420
 on that

00:18:04.420 --> 00:18:05.019
 lamb

00:18:05.019 --> 00:18:06.099
 and admitted

00:18:06.099 --> 00:18:06.599
 that he

00:18:06.599 --> 00:18:07.160
 had committed

00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:07.660
 sin

00:18:07.660 --> 00:18:11.579
 and then

00:18:11.579 --> 00:18:11.960
 a knife

00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:12.500
 was taken

00:18:12.500 --> 00:18:14.839
 and someone

00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:16.000
 held the arms

00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:16.879
 and the legs

00:18:16.879 --> 00:18:17.420
 of that

00:18:17.420 --> 00:18:17.920
 lamb

00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:20.099
 hold your hands

00:18:20.099 --> 00:18:20.619
 like that

00:18:20.619 --> 00:18:21.079
 right there

00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:21.480
 in front

00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:21.879
 okay

00:18:21.879 --> 00:18:23.339
 and then

00:18:23.339 --> 00:18:23.900
 they bent

00:18:23.900 --> 00:18:24.339
 the neck

00:18:24.339 --> 00:18:25.160
 to the side

00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:28.740
 and they

00:18:28.740 --> 00:18:29.079
 drew the

00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:29.319
 knife

00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:29.859
 across

00:18:29.859 --> 00:18:31.439
 the artery

00:18:31.439 --> 00:18:33.079
 do you know

00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:33.419
 what was

00:18:33.419 --> 00:18:33.919
 happened

00:18:33.919 --> 00:18:34.359
 next

00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:35.859
 blood

00:18:35.859 --> 00:18:36.159
 would

00:18:36.159 --> 00:18:36.579
 squirt

00:18:36.579 --> 00:18:36.919
 out

00:18:36.919 --> 00:18:37.419
 and that

00:18:37.419 --> 00:18:37.819
 lamb

00:18:37.819 --> 00:18:38.439
 would shake

00:18:38.439 --> 00:18:39.000
 and shake

00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:39.479
 and shake

00:18:39.479 --> 00:18:39.919
 and try

00:18:39.919 --> 00:18:40.519
 to release

00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:41.179
 itself

00:18:41.179 --> 00:18:41.519
 from the

00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:41.819
 bind

00:18:41.819 --> 00:18:42.519
 and then

00:18:42.519 --> 00:18:43.000
 it bled

00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:43.419
 out

00:18:43.419 --> 00:18:45.059
 and died

00:18:45.059 --> 00:18:46.399
 thank you

00:18:46.399 --> 00:18:46.639
 Noah

00:18:46.639 --> 00:18:51.679
 and John

00:18:51.679 --> 00:18:52.099
 the Baptist

00:18:52.099 --> 00:18:52.539
 says

00:18:52.539 --> 00:18:53.379
 behold

00:18:53.379 --> 00:18:53.939
 the lamb

00:18:53.939 --> 00:18:54.559
 of God

00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:55.099
 that takes

00:18:55.099 --> 00:18:55.479
 away

00:18:55.479 --> 00:18:56.299
 the sin

00:18:56.299 --> 00:18:56.579
 of the

00:18:56.579 --> 00:18:56.859
 world

00:18:56.859 --> 00:18:57.059
 do you

00:18:57.059 --> 00:18:57.119
 know

00:18:57.119 --> 00:18:57.279
 what he

00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:57.419
 was

00:18:57.419 --> 00:18:57.659
 saying

00:18:57.660 --> 00:18:59.460
 God

00:18:59.460 --> 00:18:59.759
 has

00:18:59.759 --> 00:19:00.380
 provided

00:19:00.380 --> 00:19:01.779
 someone

00:19:01.779 --> 00:19:03.060
 to die

00:19:03.060 --> 00:19:04.340
 in your

00:19:04.340 --> 00:19:05.440
 place

00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:12.900
 I want

00:19:12.900 --> 00:19:13.080
 you to

00:19:13.080 --> 00:19:13.400
 understand

00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:13.740
 that

00:19:13.740 --> 00:19:16.740
 when John

00:19:16.740 --> 00:19:17.160
 the Baptist

00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:17.740
 announced

00:19:17.740 --> 00:19:18.580
 that morning

00:19:18.580 --> 00:19:19.759
 behold

00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:20.140
 the lamb

00:19:20.140 --> 00:19:20.519
 of God

00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:20.940
 that takes

00:19:20.940 --> 00:19:21.180
 away

00:19:21.180 --> 00:19:21.560
 the sin

00:19:21.560 --> 00:19:21.779
 of the

00:19:21.779 --> 00:19:22.100
 world

00:19:22.100 --> 00:19:24.180
 he was

00:19:24.180 --> 00:19:24.720
 announcing

00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:25.900
 this fact

00:19:25.900 --> 00:19:26.740
 that God

00:19:26.740 --> 00:19:27.440
 sent his

00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:27.920
 son

00:19:27.920 --> 00:19:29.420
 to die

00:19:29.420 --> 00:19:29.680
 in your

00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:30.200
 place

00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:32.460
 there's a

00:19:32.460 --> 00:19:33.240
 second piece

00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:33.779
 that we need

00:19:33.779 --> 00:19:34.420
 to understand

00:19:34.420 --> 00:19:35.100
 and it's

00:19:35.100 --> 00:19:35.460
 a little

00:19:35.460 --> 00:19:36.080
 complicated

00:19:36.080 --> 00:19:36.340
 here

00:19:36.340 --> 00:19:36.740
 but bear

00:19:36.740 --> 00:19:37.100
 with me

00:19:37.100 --> 00:19:37.380
 as we

00:19:37.380 --> 00:19:37.740
 work our

00:19:37.740 --> 00:19:37.960
 way

00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:38.340
 through it

00:19:38.340 --> 00:19:39.080
 Jesus

00:19:39.080 --> 00:19:39.580
 is our

00:19:39.580 --> 00:19:40.019
 savior

00:19:40.019 --> 00:19:41.279
 we're

00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:41.559
 dealing

00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:42.100
 in

00:19:42.100 --> 00:19:42.580
 John

00:19:42.580 --> 00:19:42.960
 chapter

00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:43.420
 one

00:19:43.420 --> 00:19:45.059
 and we're

00:19:45.059 --> 00:19:45.380
 looking

00:19:45.380 --> 00:19:45.660
 now

00:19:45.660 --> 00:19:46.180
 we finished

00:19:46.180 --> 00:19:46.740
 29

00:19:46.740 --> 00:19:47.279
 but we're

00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:47.480
 now

00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:47.799
 looking

00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:48.019
 in

00:19:48.019 --> 00:19:48.279
 verses

00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:48.840
 30

00:19:48.840 --> 00:19:49.360
 through

00:19:49.360 --> 00:19:49.960
 33

00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:51.880
 30

00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:52.059
 through

00:19:52.059 --> 00:19:52.500
 33

00:19:52.500 --> 00:19:53.400
 this is

00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:53.580
 he

00:19:53.580 --> 00:19:53.900
 of whom

00:19:53.900 --> 00:19:54.380
 I said

00:19:54.380 --> 00:19:54.720
 after

00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:55.039
 me

00:19:55.039 --> 00:19:55.700
 comes

00:19:55.700 --> 00:19:56.019
 a man

00:19:56.019 --> 00:19:56.539
 who ranks

00:19:56.539 --> 00:19:56.980
 before

00:19:56.980 --> 00:19:57.279
 me

00:19:57.279 --> 00:19:59.319
 and so

00:19:59.319 --> 00:19:59.639
 John

00:19:59.639 --> 00:19:59.779
 the

00:19:59.779 --> 00:20:00.139
 Baptist

00:20:00.139 --> 00:20:01.139
 goes on

00:20:01.139 --> 00:20:01.339
 now

00:20:01.339 --> 00:20:01.759
 to point

00:20:01.759 --> 00:20:01.960
 out

00:20:01.960 --> 00:20:02.139
 that

00:20:02.139 --> 00:20:02.420
 Jesus

00:20:02.420 --> 00:20:03.019
 is also

00:20:03.019 --> 00:20:03.319
 the

00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:03.619
 savior

00:20:03.619 --> 00:20:04.000
 of the

00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:04.259
 world

00:20:04.259 --> 00:20:04.980
 and he

00:20:04.980 --> 00:20:05.399
 begins

00:20:05.399 --> 00:20:05.980
 by pointing

00:20:05.980 --> 00:20:06.220
 out

00:20:06.220 --> 00:20:06.619
 in verse

00:20:06.619 --> 00:20:07.039
 30

00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:07.539
 the

00:20:07.539 --> 00:20:08.639
 eternality

00:20:08.639 --> 00:20:09.680
 of

00:20:09.680 --> 00:20:10.119
 Christ

00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:12.099
 he was

00:20:12.099 --> 00:20:12.579
 before

00:20:12.579 --> 00:20:12.879
 me

00:20:12.879 --> 00:20:13.720
 he was

00:20:13.720 --> 00:20:14.180
 before

00:20:14.180 --> 00:20:14.399
 me

00:20:14.399 --> 00:20:14.740
 and how

00:20:14.740 --> 00:20:15.079
 was

00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:15.480
 Jesus

00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:16.299
 before

00:20:16.299 --> 00:20:16.700
 John

00:20:16.700 --> 00:20:16.839
 the

00:20:16.839 --> 00:20:17.180
 Baptist

00:20:17.180 --> 00:20:17.480
 well

00:20:17.480 --> 00:20:17.839
 the fact

00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:18.019
 of the

00:20:18.019 --> 00:20:18.240
 matter

00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:18.559
 is

00:20:18.559 --> 00:20:19.079
 that

00:20:19.079 --> 00:20:19.299
 he

00:20:19.299 --> 00:20:19.539
 is

00:20:19.539 --> 00:20:19.819
 God

00:20:19.819 --> 00:20:20.019
 the

00:20:20.019 --> 00:20:20.279
 son

00:20:20.279 --> 00:20:20.480
 and

00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:21.220
 eternal

00:20:21.220 --> 00:20:22.819
 we're

00:20:22.819 --> 00:20:22.960
 not

00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:23.200
 talking

00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:23.420
 about

00:20:23.420 --> 00:20:23.779
 birth

00:20:23.779 --> 00:20:24.079
 order

00:20:24.079 --> 00:20:24.339
 here

00:20:24.339 --> 00:20:24.640
 because

00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:24.860
 we

00:20:24.860 --> 00:20:25.100
 know

00:20:25.100 --> 00:20:25.360
 for

00:20:25.360 --> 00:20:25.519
 a

00:20:25.519 --> 00:20:25.779
 fact

00:20:25.779 --> 00:20:26.019
 that

00:20:26.019 --> 00:20:26.420
 in

00:20:26.420 --> 00:20:26.539
 the

00:20:26.539 --> 00:20:27.079
 biological

00:20:27.079 --> 00:20:27.640
 sense

00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:28.160
 John

00:20:28.160 --> 00:20:28.299
 the

00:20:28.299 --> 00:20:28.559
 Baptist

00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:28.779
 was

00:20:28.779 --> 00:20:29.120
 actually

00:20:29.120 --> 00:20:29.420
 born

00:20:29.420 --> 00:20:30.000
 before

00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:31.960
 Jesus

00:20:31.960 --> 00:20:34.700
 but when

00:20:34.700 --> 00:20:35.000
 he made

00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:35.500
 that statement

00:20:35.500 --> 00:20:35.779
 he was

00:20:35.779 --> 00:20:36.420
 talking about

00:20:36.420 --> 00:20:36.920
 the

00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:37.519
 eternality

00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:37.799
 of the

00:20:37.799 --> 00:20:37.960
 Lord

00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:38.240
 Jesus

00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:38.759
 Christ

00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:39.400
 and

00:20:39.400 --> 00:20:39.839
 he

00:20:39.839 --> 00:20:40.740
 understood

00:20:40.740 --> 00:20:42.579
 that

00:20:42.579 --> 00:20:42.960
 Jesus

00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:43.420
 was

00:20:43.420 --> 00:20:43.700
 and is

00:20:43.700 --> 00:20:43.860
 the

00:20:43.860 --> 00:20:44.180
 only

00:20:44.180 --> 00:20:45.019
 individual

00:20:45.019 --> 00:20:45.740
 who

00:20:45.740 --> 00:20:45.900
 can

00:20:45.900 --> 00:20:46.240
 actually

00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:46.640
 save

00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:47.039
 men's

00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:47.360
 souls

00:20:47.360 --> 00:20:47.759
 now

00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:48.299
 we

00:20:48.299 --> 00:20:48.759
 understood

00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:49.259
 something

00:20:49.259 --> 00:20:49.680
 last

00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:49.920
 week

00:20:49.920 --> 00:20:50.160
 that I

00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:50.279
 want

00:20:50.279 --> 00:20:50.360
 to

00:20:50.360 --> 00:20:50.680
 remind

00:20:50.680 --> 00:20:50.860
 you

00:20:50.860 --> 00:20:51.060
 of

00:20:51.060 --> 00:20:51.600
 that

00:20:51.600 --> 00:20:52.180
 John's

00:20:52.180 --> 00:20:52.900
 baptism

00:20:52.900 --> 00:20:53.160
 and

00:20:53.160 --> 00:20:53.320
 the

00:20:53.320 --> 00:20:53.720
 baptism

00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:53.980
 of

00:20:53.980 --> 00:20:54.360
 Jesus

00:20:54.360 --> 00:20:55.800
 were

00:20:55.800 --> 00:20:56.500
 essentially

00:20:56.500 --> 00:20:57.039
 different

00:20:57.039 --> 00:20:57.400
 both

00:20:57.400 --> 00:20:57.600
 of

00:20:57.600 --> 00:20:57.880
 them

00:20:57.880 --> 00:20:59.019
 were

00:20:59.019 --> 00:20:59.580
 spoken

00:20:59.580 --> 00:20:59.820
 of

00:20:59.820 --> 00:20:59.980
 as

00:20:59.980 --> 00:21:00.420
 baptism

00:21:00.420 --> 00:21:00.700
 but

00:21:00.700 --> 00:21:01.259
 John's

00:21:01.259 --> 00:21:01.660
 baptism

00:21:01.660 --> 00:21:02.019
 was

00:21:02.019 --> 00:21:02.440
 merely

00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:03.420
 immersion

00:21:03.420 --> 00:21:03.840
 in

00:21:03.840 --> 00:21:04.279
 water

00:21:04.279 --> 00:21:06.100
 and

00:21:06.100 --> 00:21:06.240
 it

00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:06.440
 had

00:21:06.440 --> 00:21:06.779
 nothing

00:21:06.779 --> 00:21:07.019
 to

00:21:07.019 --> 00:21:07.300
 do

00:21:07.300 --> 00:21:07.720
 with

00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:08.380
 genuine

00:21:08.380 --> 00:21:09.080
 salvation

00:21:09.080 --> 00:21:09.900
 can

00:21:09.900 --> 00:21:10.200
 a

00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:10.660
 person

00:21:10.660 --> 00:21:10.960
 be

00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:11.539
 baptized

00:21:11.539 --> 00:21:12.320
 immersed

00:21:12.320 --> 00:21:12.620
 in

00:21:12.620 --> 00:21:12.980
 water

00:21:12.980 --> 00:21:13.460
 and

00:21:13.460 --> 00:21:13.740
 not

00:21:13.740 --> 00:21:13.980
 be

00:21:13.980 --> 00:21:14.580
 saved

00:21:14.580 --> 00:21:14.740
 and

00:21:14.740 --> 00:21:14.960
 what's

00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:15.100
 the

00:21:15.100 --> 00:21:15.519
 answer

00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:17.019
 absolutely

00:21:17.019 --> 00:21:17.940
 over

00:21:17.940 --> 00:21:18.519
 the years

00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:18.860
 of being

00:21:18.860 --> 00:21:19.019
 a

00:21:19.019 --> 00:21:19.380
 pastor

00:21:19.380 --> 00:21:19.680
 here

00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:20.160
 I

00:21:20.160 --> 00:21:20.400
 have

00:21:20.400 --> 00:21:20.820
 baptized

00:21:20.820 --> 00:21:21.420
 a

00:21:21.420 --> 00:21:21.740
 number

00:21:21.740 --> 00:21:21.900
 of

00:21:21.900 --> 00:21:22.440
 individuals

00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:22.759
 more

00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:22.920
 than

00:21:22.920 --> 00:21:23.420
 once

00:21:23.420 --> 00:21:24.340
 and

00:21:24.340 --> 00:21:24.460
 I

00:21:24.460 --> 00:21:24.700
 do

00:21:24.700 --> 00:21:24.940
 want

00:21:24.940 --> 00:21:25.019
 you

00:21:25.019 --> 00:21:25.160
 to

00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:25.400
 know

00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:25.920
 I

00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:26.220
 go

00:21:26.220 --> 00:21:26.820
 to

00:21:26.820 --> 00:21:27.380
 lengths

00:21:27.380 --> 00:21:27.640
 to

00:21:27.640 --> 00:21:27.920
 not

00:21:27.920 --> 00:21:28.220
 do

00:21:28.220 --> 00:21:28.660
 that

00:21:28.660 --> 00:21:30.019
 what

00:21:30.019 --> 00:21:30.160
 I

00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:30.380
 mean

00:21:30.380 --> 00:21:30.560
 by

00:21:30.560 --> 00:21:30.860
 that

00:21:30.860 --> 00:21:31.320
 is

00:21:31.320 --> 00:21:31.600
 that

00:21:31.600 --> 00:21:31.920
 when

00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:32.039
 a

00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:32.299
 person

00:21:32.299 --> 00:21:32.640
 comes

00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:32.820
 and

00:21:32.820 --> 00:21:32.980
 says

00:21:32.980 --> 00:21:33.140
 I

00:21:33.140 --> 00:21:33.340
 want

00:21:33.340 --> 00:21:33.420
 to

00:21:33.420 --> 00:21:33.539
 be

00:21:33.539 --> 00:21:33.880
 baptized

00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:34.640
 we

00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:35.080
 work

00:21:35.080 --> 00:21:35.680
 carefully

00:21:35.680 --> 00:21:35.960
 to

00:21:35.960 --> 00:21:36.259
 see

00:21:36.259 --> 00:21:36.500
 to

00:21:36.500 --> 00:21:36.680
 it

00:21:36.680 --> 00:21:37.060
 that

00:21:37.060 --> 00:21:37.220
 they

00:21:37.220 --> 00:21:37.420
 have

00:21:37.420 --> 00:21:37.560
 a

00:21:37.560 --> 00:21:37.820
 clear

00:21:37.820 --> 00:21:38.340
 testimony

00:21:38.340 --> 00:21:38.680
 of

00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:38.820
 their

00:21:38.820 --> 00:21:39.259
 faith

00:21:39.259 --> 00:21:40.900
 I

00:21:40.900 --> 00:21:41.160
 came

00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:41.299
 to

00:21:41.299 --> 00:21:41.700
 conviction

00:21:41.700 --> 00:21:41.700


00:21:41.860 --> 00:21:42.259
 realizing

00:21:42.259 --> 00:21:42.539
 my

00:21:42.539 --> 00:21:42.799
 sin

00:21:42.799 --> 00:21:42.940
 and

00:21:42.940 --> 00:21:43.299
 understood

00:21:43.299 --> 00:21:43.560
 that

00:21:43.560 --> 00:21:43.680
 I

00:21:43.680 --> 00:21:43.900
 needed

00:21:43.900 --> 00:21:44.259
 Christ

00:21:44.259 --> 00:21:44.420
 as

00:21:49.680 --> 00:21:50.480
 as

00:21:50.480 --> 00:21:50.620
 a

00:21:50.620 --> 00:21:50.860
 public

00:21:50.860 --> 00:21:51.340
 testimony

00:21:51.340 --> 00:21:52.940
 but

00:21:52.940 --> 00:21:53.080
 there

00:21:53.080 --> 00:21:53.160
 are

00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:53.660
 individuals

00:21:53.660 --> 00:21:54.000
 that

00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:55.680
 having

00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:56.019
 been

00:21:56.019 --> 00:21:56.440
 baptized

00:21:56.440 --> 00:21:57.080
 later

00:21:57.080 --> 00:21:57.400
 on

00:21:57.400 --> 00:21:57.759
 5

00:21:57.759 --> 00:21:58.060
 10

00:21:58.060 --> 00:21:58.440
 15

00:21:58.440 --> 00:21:58.700
 20

00:21:58.700 --> 00:21:59.039
 years

00:21:59.039 --> 00:21:59.940
 the

00:21:59.940 --> 00:22:00.259
 burden

00:22:00.259 --> 00:22:00.420
 of

00:22:00.420 --> 00:22:00.640
 sin

00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:00.740
 in

00:22:00.740 --> 00:22:00.860
 their

00:22:00.860 --> 00:22:01.140
 life

00:22:01.140 --> 00:22:01.460
 brings

00:22:01.460 --> 00:22:01.600
 them

00:22:01.600 --> 00:22:01.700
 to

00:22:01.700 --> 00:22:01.799
 the

00:22:01.799 --> 00:22:02.039
 point

00:22:02.039 --> 00:22:02.160
 of

00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:02.340
 really

00:22:02.340 --> 00:22:02.720
 crying

00:22:02.720 --> 00:22:02.980
 out

00:22:02.980 --> 00:22:03.180
 and

00:22:03.180 --> 00:22:03.360
 in

00:22:03.360 --> 00:22:03.799
 genuine

00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:04.940
 salvation

00:22:04.940 --> 00:22:05.360
 coming

00:22:05.360 --> 00:22:05.680
 to know

00:22:05.680 --> 00:22:06.100
 Christ

00:22:06.100 --> 00:22:06.340
 and

00:22:06.340 --> 00:22:07.019
 subsequently

00:22:07.019 --> 00:22:07.220
 be

00:22:07.220 --> 00:22:07.440
 baptized

00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:07.960
 again

00:22:07.960 --> 00:22:09.880
 John's

00:27:51.340 --> 00:27:51.960
 need

00:27:51.960 --> 00:27:52.440
 the

00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:53.200
 Holy

00:27:53.200 --> 00:27:54.040
 Spirit

00:27:54.039 --> 00:27:54.579
 right

00:27:54.579 --> 00:27:59.319
 and as

00:27:59.319 --> 00:27:59.659
 you look

00:27:59.659 --> 00:27:59.980
 at this

00:27:59.980 --> 00:28:00.599
 passage

00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:02.000
 and you're

00:28:02.000 --> 00:28:02.279
 dealing

00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:02.799
 with what

00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:03.399
 it says

00:28:03.399 --> 00:28:04.559
 here is

00:28:04.559 --> 00:28:05.240
 John the

00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:05.539
 Baptist

00:28:05.539 --> 00:28:06.139
 saying

00:28:06.139 --> 00:28:07.079
 Jesus

00:28:07.079 --> 00:28:07.740
 is the

00:28:07.740 --> 00:28:08.039
 one

00:28:08.039 --> 00:28:08.299
 who

00:28:08.299 --> 00:28:09.119
 fulfills

00:28:09.119 --> 00:28:09.119


00:28:09.119 --> 00:28:09.639
 the

00:28:09.639 --> 00:28:10.279
 prophetic

00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:11.039
 utterance

00:28:11.039 --> 00:28:11.240
 of

00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:11.940
 Ezekiel

00:28:11.940 --> 00:28:12.619
 in

00:28:12.619 --> 00:28:13.319
 relationship

00:28:13.319 --> 00:28:13.879
 to the

00:28:13.879 --> 00:28:14.139
 fact

00:28:14.139 --> 00:28:14.500
 that there

00:28:14.500 --> 00:28:14.700
 will

00:28:14.700 --> 00:28:15.099
 come

00:28:15.099 --> 00:28:15.659
 someone

00:28:15.659 --> 00:28:16.240
 who

00:28:16.240 --> 00:28:16.539
 will

00:28:16.539 --> 00:28:16.980
 put

00:28:16.980 --> 00:28:17.740
 his

00:28:17.740 --> 00:28:18.399
 spirit

00:28:18.399 --> 00:28:19.200
 on

00:28:19.200 --> 00:28:19.859
 you

00:28:19.859 --> 00:28:21.299
 I

00:28:21.299 --> 00:28:21.500
 want

00:28:21.500 --> 00:28:21.619
 you

00:28:21.619 --> 00:28:21.759
 to

00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:22.039
 know

00:28:22.039 --> 00:28:23.879
 only

00:28:23.879 --> 00:28:24.359
 Jesus

00:28:24.359 --> 00:28:24.779
 can

00:28:24.779 --> 00:28:25.199
 truly

00:28:25.199 --> 00:28:25.779
 change

00:28:25.779 --> 00:28:26.039
 a

00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:26.500
 sinner's

00:28:26.500 --> 00:28:26.819
 heart

00:28:26.819 --> 00:28:27.399
 and

00:28:27.399 --> 00:28:27.979
 bless

00:28:27.979 --> 00:28:28.519
 with

00:28:28.519 --> 00:28:28.679
 the

00:28:28.679 --> 00:28:29.099
 indwelling

00:28:29.099 --> 00:28:29.740
 spirit

00:28:29.740 --> 00:28:30.839
 and

00:28:30.839 --> 00:28:31.000
 it

00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:31.379
 follows

00:28:31.379 --> 00:28:31.719
 then

00:28:31.719 --> 00:28:33.179
 that

00:28:33.179 --> 00:28:33.539
 those

00:28:33.539 --> 00:28:33.719
 who

00:28:33.719 --> 00:28:33.899
 are

00:28:33.899 --> 00:28:34.379
 genuinely

00:28:34.379 --> 00:28:35.019
 changed

00:28:35.019 --> 00:28:35.199
 or

00:28:35.199 --> 00:28:35.319
 who

00:28:35.319 --> 00:28:35.459
 are

00:28:35.459 --> 00:28:35.859
 genuinely

00:28:35.859 --> 00:28:36.419
 saved

00:28:36.419 --> 00:28:36.959
 and I

00:28:36.959 --> 00:28:37.099
 want

00:28:37.099 --> 00:28:37.179
 you

00:28:37.179 --> 00:28:37.319

00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:37.599
 track

00:28:37.599 --> 00:28:37.819
 this

00:28:37.819 --> 00:28:38.059
 very

00:28:38.059 --> 00:28:38.459
 carefully

00:28:38.459 --> 00:28:38.819
 because

00:28:38.819 --> 00:28:39.000
 I

00:28:39.000 --> 00:28:39.219
 think

00:28:39.219 --> 00:28:39.799
 I

00:28:39.799 --> 00:28:39.959
 have

00:28:39.959 --> 00:28:40.059

00:28:40.059 --> 00:28:40.240
 tell

00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:40.379
 you

00:28:40.379 --> 00:28:40.899
 Satan

00:28:40.899 --> 00:28:41.119
 is

00:28:41.119 --> 00:28:41.299

00:28:41.740 --> 00:28:42.019
 at

00:28:42.019 --> 00:28:42.459
 deception

00:28:42.460 --> 00:28:45.420
 those

00:28:45.420 --> 00:28:45.680

00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:45.880
 are

00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:46.620
 genuinely

00:28:46.620 --> 00:28:47.640
 saved

00:28:47.640 --> 00:28:48.420
 have

00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:49.500
 within

00:28:49.500 --> 00:28:49.880
 them

00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:51.180
 and

00:28:51.180 --> 00:28:51.440
 the

00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:51.880
 spirit

00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:53.019
 works

00:28:53.019 --> 00:28:53.340
 to

00:28:53.340 --> 00:28:53.740
 help

00:28:53.740 --> 00:28:54.019
 them

00:28:54.019 --> 00:28:54.600
 grow

00:28:54.600 --> 00:28:55.100
 and

00:28:55.100 --> 00:28:55.660
 become

00:28:55.660 --> 00:28:56.319
 more

00:28:56.319 --> 00:28:56.559
 and

00:28:56.559 --> 00:28:56.819
 more

00:28:56.819 --> 00:28:57.100
 like

00:28:57.100 --> 00:28:57.279
 the

00:28:57.279 --> 00:28:57.440
 Lord

00:28:57.440 --> 00:28:57.740
 Jesus

00:28:57.740 --> 00:28:58.180
 Christ

00:28:58.180 --> 00:28:58.799
 and

00:28:58.799 --> 00:28:59.059
 if

00:28:59.059 --> 00:28:59.259
 you

00:28:59.259 --> 00:28:59.420
 are

00:28:59.420 --> 00:28:59.579
 a

00:28:59.579 --> 00:28:59.880
 person

00:28:59.880 --> 00:29:00.079
 who

00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:00.340
 does

00:29:00.340 --> 00:29:00.680
 truly

00:29:01.240 --> 00:29:01.559

00:29:01.559 --> 00:29:02.259

00:29:02.259 --> 00:29:02.559
 you

00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:02.860
 should

00:29:02.860 --> 00:29:03.100
 be

00:29:03.100 --> 00:29:03.420
 able

00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:11.519
 if

00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:11.600
 you

00:29:11.600 --> 00:29:11.740
 get

00:29:11.740 --> 00:29:11.880
 the

00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:12.100
 memo

00:29:12.100 --> 00:29:13.580
 okay

00:29:13.580 --> 00:29:14.880
 those

00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:15.040
 who

00:29:15.040 --> 00:29:15.200
 are

00:29:15.200 --> 00:29:15.600
 genuinely

00:29:17.420 --> 00:29:17.700
 that's

00:29:17.700 --> 00:29:17.880
 what

00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:22.700
 different

00:29:22.700 --> 00:29:23.280
 than

00:29:23.500 --> 00:29:23.860
 were

 to

 our

00:29:25.120 --> 00:29:25.680
 salvation

00:29:25.680 --> 00:29:26.140

00:29:28.420 --> 00:29:29.600
 I'm

00:29:29.600 --> 00:29:29.800

00:29:33.580 --> 00:29:33.760
 so

00:29:33.760 --> 00:29:33.940
 we

00:29:33.940 --> 00:29:34.180
 look

00:29:34.180 --> 00:29:34.500
 here

 never

00:34:30.140 --> 00:34:31.019
 stop

00:34:31.019 --> 00:34:31.940
 appreciating

00:34:31.940 --> 00:34:32.220
 that

00:34:32.220 --> 00:34:32.600
 gift

00:34:32.600 --> 00:34:35.240
 when I

00:34:40.740 --> 00:34:40.920
 her

00:34:40.920 --> 00:34:42.019
 but

00:34:43.840 --> 00:34:44.240
 I

00:34:44.240 --> 00:34:49.920
 can

00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:50.900
 die

00:34:50.900 --> 00:34:51.760
 at

00:34:51.760 --> 00:34:52.180
 night

00:34:52.180 --> 00:34:53.019
 I

00:34:53.019 --> 00:34:53.280
 don't

00:34:53.280 --> 00:34:53.600
 care

00:34:53.600 --> 00:34:54.420
 because

00:34:54.420 --> 00:34:55.039
 when I

00:34:55.039 --> 00:34:55.340
 wake

00:34:55.340 --> 00:34:55.539
 up

00:34:55.539 --> 00:34:55.800
 guess

00:34:55.800 --> 00:34:56.000
 where

00:34:56.000 --> 00:34:56.180
 I

00:34:56.180 --> 00:34:56.320
 will

00:34:56.320 --> 00:34:56.559
 be

00:34:56.559 --> 00:34:58.059
 in

00:34:58.059 --> 00:34:58.180
 the

00:34:58.180 --> 00:34:58.500
 presence

00:34:58.500 --> 00:34:58.720
 of

00:34:58.720 --> 00:34:58.840
 the

00:34:58.840 --> 00:34:59.000
 Lord

00:34:59.000 --> 00:34:59.280
 Jesus

00:34:59.280 --> 00:34:59.720
 Christ

00:34:59.720 --> 00:34:59.900
 and

00:34:59.900 --> 00:35:00.120
 why

00:35:00.120 --> 00:35:00.300
 will

00:35:00.300 --> 00:35:00.420
 I

00:35:00.420 --> 00:35:00.579
 be

00:35:00.579 --> 00:35:00.800
 there

00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:02.320
 because

00:35:02.320 --> 00:35:02.780
 Jesus

00:35:02.780 --> 00:35:03.160
 paid

00:35:03.160 --> 00:35:03.360
 the

00:35:03.360 --> 00:35:03.680
 penalty

00:35:03.680 --> 00:35:03.920
 for

00:35:03.920 --> 00:35:04.180
 my

00:35:04.180 --> 00:35:04.660
 sins

00:35:04.660 --> 00:35:05.180
 and

00:35:05.180 --> 00:35:05.400
 as

00:35:05.400 --> 00:35:05.559
 it

00:35:05.559 --> 00:35:05.760
 says

00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:05.940
 in

00:35:05.940 --> 00:35:06.220
 Romans

00:35:06.220 --> 00:35:06.559
 chapter

00:35:06.559 --> 00:35:06.860

00:35:07.380 --> 00:35:07.860
 there

00:35:07.860 --> 00:35:08.079
 is

00:35:08.079 --> 00:35:08.360
 now

00:35:08.360 --> 00:35:08.960
 therefore

00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:09.340
 no

00:35:09.340 --> 00:35:10.460
 condemnation

00:35:10.460 --> 00:35:10.740
 to

00:35:10.740 --> 00:35:11.100
 them

00:35:11.100 --> 00:35:11.559
 who

00:35:11.559 --> 00:35:11.720
 are

00:35:11.720 --> 00:35:11.900
 in

00:35:11.900 --> 00:35:12.240
 Christ

00:35:12.240 --> 00:35:12.900
 Jesus

 with

 me

00:35:17.740 --> 00:35:17.900

00:35:18.059 --> 00:35:18.460
 close

00:35:18.460 --> 00:35:20.680
 of

00:35:20.680 --> 00:35:20.820

00:35:20.820 --> 00:35:21.099
 threat

00:35:21.099 --> 00:35:21.280
 of

00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:21.840

00:38:15.239 --> 00:38:15.579
 and

00:38:15.579 --> 00:38:16.099
 thankfully

00:38:16.099 --> 00:38:16.679
 are

00:38:16.679 --> 00:38:17.019
 things

00:38:17.019 --> 00:38:17.219
 that

00:38:17.219 --> 00:38:17.440
 we

00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:17.960
 express

00:38:17.960 --> 00:38:18.699
 without

00:38:18.699 --> 00:38:19.139
 being

00:38:19.139 --> 00:38:19.779
 cajoled

00:38:19.779 --> 00:38:20.219
 or pressured

00:38:20.219 --> 00:38:20.679
 to do

00:38:20.679 --> 00:38:20.920
 it

00:38:20.920 --> 00:38:21.779
 you need

00:38:21.779 --> 00:38:22.019
 to go

00:38:22.019 --> 00:38:22.440
 out there

00:38:22.440 --> 00:38:22.599
 and

00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:23.099
 witness

00:38:23.099 --> 00:38:24.519
 how

00:38:24.519 --> 00:38:24.940
 does

00:38:24.940 --> 00:38:25.139
 that

00:38:25.139 --> 00:38:25.360
 help

00:38:25.360 --> 00:38:25.539
 you

00:38:25.539 --> 00:38:28.019
 I've

00:38:28.019 --> 00:38:28.199
 never

00:38:28.199 --> 00:38:28.440
 seen

00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:28.579
 it

00:38:28.579 --> 00:38:28.819
 change

00:38:28.819 --> 00:38:28.940
 a

00:38:28.940 --> 00:38:29.239
 person

00:38:29.239 --> 00:38:30.319
 you

00:38:30.319 --> 00:38:30.519
 can

00:38:30.519 --> 00:38:30.799
 give

00:38:30.799 --> 00:38:31.139
 people

00:38:31.139 --> 00:38:31.400
 a

00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:31.920
 temporary

00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:32.380
 guilt

00:38:32.380 --> 00:38:32.719
 trip

00:38:32.719 --> 00:38:33.159
 but

00:38:33.159 --> 00:38:33.339
 it's

00:38:33.339 --> 00:38:33.599
 only

00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:33.900
 good

00:38:33.900 --> 00:38:34.099
 for

00:38:34.099 --> 00:38:34.299
 as

00:38:34.299 --> 00:38:34.559
 long

00:38:34.559 --> 00:38:34.699
 as

00:38:34.699 --> 00:38:34.839
 they

00:38:34.839 --> 00:38:35.000
 can

00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:35.199
 hear

00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:35.420
 your

00:38:35.420 --> 00:38:35.980
 voice

00:38:35.980 --> 00:38:38.159
 but

00:38:38.159 --> 00:38:38.420
 when

00:38:38.420 --> 00:38:38.619
 your

00:38:38.619 --> 00:38:38.960
 heart

00:38:38.960 --> 00:38:39.219
 is

00:38:39.219 --> 00:38:39.779
 touched

00:38:39.779 --> 00:38:40.299
 by

00:38:40.299 --> 00:38:40.519
 the

00:38:40.519 --> 00:38:41.000
 glory

00:38:41.000 --> 00:38:41.420
 of

00:38:41.420 --> 00:38:41.579
 the

00:38:41.579 --> 00:38:42.059
 forgiveness

00:38:42.059 --> 00:38:42.400
 of

00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:42.880
 Christ

00:38:42.880 --> 00:38:43.440
 and

00:38:43.440 --> 00:38:43.599
 the

00:38:43.599 --> 00:38:44.139
 supremacy

00:38:44.139 --> 00:38:44.400
 of

00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:44.579
 his

00:38:44.579 --> 00:38:45.139
 sacrifice

00:38:45.139 --> 00:38:45.559
 for

00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:45.819
 you

00:38:45.819 --> 00:38:46.299
 and

00:38:46.299 --> 00:38:46.500
 the

00:38:46.500 --> 00:38:47.019
 reality

00:38:47.019 --> 00:38:47.239
 of

00:38:47.239 --> 00:38:47.380
 his

00:38:47.380 --> 00:38:47.639
 love

00:38:47.639 --> 00:38:47.819
 for

00:38:47.819 --> 00:38:47.980
 you

00:38:47.980 --> 00:38:48.380
 it

00:38:48.380 --> 00:38:48.679
 ends

00:38:48.679 --> 00:38:48.679


00:38:48.679 --> 00:38:48.880
 up

00:38:48.880 --> 00:38:49.159
 being

00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:49.599
 something

00:38:49.599 --> 00:38:50.139
 that

00:38:50.139 --> 00:38:50.319
 you

00:38:50.319 --> 00:38:50.679
 talk

00:38:50.679 --> 00:38:50.980
 about

00:38:50.980 --> 00:38:51.279
 without

00:38:51.279 --> 00:38:51.639
 being

00:38:51.639 --> 00:38:52.159
 prodded

00:38:52.159 --> 00:38:55.900
 and

00:38:55.900 --> 00:38:56.039
 so

00:38:56.039 --> 00:38:56.259
 this

00:38:56.259 --> 00:38:56.539
 morning

00:38:56.539 --> 00:38:56.719
 it

00:38:56.719 --> 00:38:56.839
 is

00:38:56.839 --> 00:38:57.059
 my

00:38:57.059 --> 00:38:57.480
 prayer

00:38:57.480 --> 00:39:00.500
 it

00:39:00.500 --> 00:39:00.679
 has

00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:00.839
 been

00:39:00.839 --> 00:39:01.019
 through

00:39:01.019 --> 00:39:01.219
 this

00:39:01.219 --> 00:39:01.519
 week

00:39:01.519 --> 00:39:03.639
 that

00:39:03.639 --> 00:39:04.199
 this

00:39:04.199 --> 00:39:04.659
 group

00:39:04.659 --> 00:39:04.860
 of

00:39:04.860 --> 00:39:05.159
 people

00:39:05.159 --> 00:39:05.380
 who

00:39:05.380 --> 00:39:05.619
 sit

00:39:05.619 --> 00:39:05.860
 here

00:39:05.860 --> 00:39:06.139
 this

00:39:06.139 --> 00:39:06.500
 morning

00:39:06.500 --> 00:39:09.319
 would

00:39:09.319 --> 00:39:09.480
 be

00:39:09.480 --> 00:39:09.940
 affected

00:39:09.940 --> 00:39:10.299
 by

00:39:10.299 --> 00:39:10.559
 the

00:39:10.559 --> 00:39:11.039
 truth

00:39:11.039 --> 00:39:11.299
 of

00:39:11.299 --> 00:39:11.500
 the

00:39:11.500 --> 00:39:11.860
 scriptures

00:39:11.860 --> 00:39:12.579
 and

00:39:12.579 --> 00:39:12.799
 the

00:39:12.799 --> 00:39:13.299
 impact

00:39:13.299 --> 00:39:13.699
 of

00:39:13.699 --> 00:39:13.860
 the

00:39:13.860 --> 00:39:14.099
 work

00:39:14.099 --> 00:39:14.219
 of

00:39:14.219 --> 00:39:14.380
 the

00:39:14.380 --> 00:39:14.639
 Holy

00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:15.239
 Spirit

00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:18.959
 that

00:39:18.959 --> 00:39:19.119
 the

00:39:19.119 --> 00:39:19.399
 truth

00:39:19.399 --> 00:39:19.579
 that

00:39:19.579 --> 00:39:19.719
 he

00:39:19.719 --> 00:39:19.919
 is

00:39:19.919 --> 00:39:20.119
 our

00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:20.539
 lamb

00:39:20.539 --> 00:39:21.579
 and

00:39:21.579 --> 00:39:22.079
 substitute

00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:23.879
 that

00:39:23.879 --> 00:39:24.039
 the

00:39:24.039 --> 00:39:24.299

00:39:25.459 --> 00:39:26.719
 and

00:39:26.719 --> 00:39:26.839
 the

00:39:26.839 --> 00:39:26.979
 one

00:39:26.979 --> 00:39:27.119
 who

00:39:27.119 --> 00:39:27.439
 redeemed

00:39:27.439 --> 00:39:27.839
 us

00:39:27.839 --> 00:39:28.939
 and

00:39:28.939 --> 00:39:29.099
 the

00:39:29.099 --> 00:39:29.359
 truth

00:39:29.359 --> 00:39:29.559
 that

00:39:29.559 --> 00:39:29.719
 he

00:39:29.719 --> 00:39:29.899
 is

00:39:29.899 --> 00:39:30.079
 the

00:39:30.079 --> 00:39:30.299
 Lord

00:39:30.299 --> 00:39:30.459
 of

00:39:30.459 --> 00:39:30.679
 Lord

00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:30.879
 and

00:39:30.879 --> 00:39:31.079
 King

00:39:31.079 --> 00:39:31.239
 of

00:39:31.239 --> 00:39:31.599
 Kings

00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:32.199
 would

00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:32.379
 be

00:39:32.379 --> 00:39:32.579
 the

00:39:32.579 --> 00:39:32.899
 thing

00:39:32.899 --> 00:39:33.239
 that

00:39:33.239 --> 00:39:34.179
 controls

00:39:34.179 --> 00:39:34.839
 our

00:39:34.839 --> 00:39:35.559
 life

00:39:35.559 --> 00:39:39.959
 so

00:39:39.959 --> 00:39:40.119
 that

00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:40.279
 the

00:39:40.279 --> 00:39:40.839
 unbelieving

00:39:40.839 --> 00:39:41.359
 world

00:39:41.359 --> 00:39:42.019
 as

00:39:42.019 --> 00:39:42.219
 it

00:39:42.219 --> 00:39:42.559
 says

00:39:42.559 --> 00:39:42.799
 in

00:39:42.799 --> 00:39:43.099
 scripture

00:39:43.099 --> 00:39:43.779
 would

00:39:43.779 --> 00:39:44.239
 ask

00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:44.619
 us

00:39:44.619 --> 00:39:45.099
 a

00:39:45.099 --> 00:39:45.639
 reason

00:39:45.639 --> 00:39:46.159
 for

00:39:46.159 --> 00:39:46.400
 the

00:39:46.400 --> 00:39:46.819
 hope

00:39:46.819 --> 00:39:47.420
 that

00:39:47.420 --> 00:39:47.980
 lies

00:39:47.980 --> 00:39:48.559
 within

00:39:48.559 --> 00:39:49.179
 us

00:39:49.179 --> 00:39:53.099
 let's

00:39:53.099 --> 00:39:53.359
 close

00:39:53.359 --> 00:39:53.519
 in

00:39:53.519 --> 00:39:53.759
 prayer
