WEBVTT

00:00:00.380 --> 00:00:06.820
 It's so great to, I got to sit toward the back today, I'm so glad I did.

00:00:06.900 --> 00:00:12.040
 It's such a beautiful and glorious sight to watch the saints worshiping the Lord side

00:00:12.040 --> 00:00:19.059
 by side again, and it brings me so much joy to be here to worship with you.

00:00:20.179 --> 00:00:26.740
 It says in 1 Thessalonians chapter 2, 17 to 19, but since we were torn away from you brothers

00:00:26.739 --> 00:00:33.280
 for a short time, in person, not in heart, we endeavor the more eagerly and with great

00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:39.679
 desire to see you face to face, because we wanted to come to you, I, Paul, again and again,

00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:40.859
 but Satan hindered us.

00:00:41.460 --> 00:00:46.379
 For what is our hope or joy or crown of boasting before our Lord Jesus at his coming?

00:00:47.519 --> 00:00:48.480
 Is it not you?

00:00:49.099 --> 00:00:50.899
 For you are our glory and joy.

00:00:50.899 --> 00:00:59.339
 You are our glory and joy, and it is something that we have longed for this day, to be able

00:00:59.339 --> 00:01:04.019
 to see each other face to face again, and to worship side by side again.

00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:12.319
 And for those of you who are still away, we will continue to eagerly desire to see you

00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:19.500
 face to face, and to try to stay, though we might be torn from each other in person, make

00:01:19.500 --> 00:01:21.680
 sure that it's not in heart, that we are far away from each other.

00:01:22.579 --> 00:01:26.560
 And thank you for joining us for worship this evening.

00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:28.579
 Please turn with me to Acts chapter 10.

00:01:33.060 --> 00:01:37.819
 We're going to go through the entire chapter and go past that to chapter 11, verse 18 today.

00:01:41.420 --> 00:01:45.879
 And let me pray for the reading and preaching of God's word.

00:01:49.500 --> 00:01:57.060
 Heavenly Father,

00:01:57.060 --> 00:01:57.099
 Heavenly Father,

00:01:58.379 --> 00:02:04.700
 we come with a posture of submission

00:02:04.700 --> 00:02:12.039
 to sit under the reading and preaching of your word.

00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:16.979
 We want to be challenged and comforted by your word.

00:02:19.500 --> 00:02:22.919
 We want the desires of our heart,

00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:29.560
 the concerns of our minds,

00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:35.500
 reflect your love for your people,

00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:38.599
 your love for the lost.

00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:46.979
 And so we pray that you would impart that to us

00:02:46.979 --> 00:02:50.240
 in your word

00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:51.939
 and by your spirit.

00:02:57.240 --> 00:02:58.519
 Speak to us, O Lord.

00:03:00.060 --> 00:03:01.319
 Your servants are listening.

00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:06.719
 May the words of my mouth

00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:08.799
 and the meditations of all of our hearts

00:03:08.799 --> 00:03:11.560
 be pleasing in your sight, O Lord,

00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:13.280
 our rock and redeemer.

00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:16.479
 In Jesus' name we pray.

00:03:17.340 --> 00:03:17.639
 Amen.

00:03:19.959 --> 00:03:21.120
 Acts chapter 10,

00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:22.359
 starting in verse 1,

00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:24.060
 going to chapter 11, verse 18.

00:03:24.060 --> 00:03:30.539
 At Caesarea,

00:03:30.860 --> 00:03:32.500
 there was a man named Cornelius,

00:03:33.039 --> 00:03:35.620
 a centurion of what was known as the Italian cohort,

00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:39.520
 a devout man who feared God with all his household,

00:03:40.099 --> 00:03:41.740
 gave alms generously to the people

00:03:41.740 --> 00:03:43.580
 and prayed continually to God.

00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:46.640
 About the ninth hour of the day,

00:03:46.699 --> 00:03:48.039
 he saw clearly in a vision

00:03:48.039 --> 00:03:50.180
 an angel of God come in and say to him,

00:03:50.180 --> 00:03:51.180
 Cornelius.

00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:54.140
 And he stared at him in terror and said,

00:03:54.480 --> 00:03:55.640
 What is it, Lord?

00:03:56.379 --> 00:03:57.540
 And he said to him,

00:03:58.280 --> 00:03:59.659
 Your prayers and your alms

00:03:59.659 --> 00:04:02.180
 have ascended as a memorial before God.

00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:04.740
 And now send men to Joppa

00:04:04.740 --> 00:04:06.960
 and bring one Simon who is called Peter.

00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:09.680
 He is lodging with one Simon,

00:04:09.780 --> 00:04:11.620
 a tanner whose house is by the sea.

00:04:12.900 --> 00:04:15.060
 When the angel who spoke to him had departed,

00:04:15.200 --> 00:04:16.340
 he called two of his servants

00:04:16.340 --> 00:04:18.840
 and a devout soldier from among those who attended him.

00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:21.039
 And having related everything to them,

00:04:21.139 --> 00:04:22.319
 he sent them to Joppa.

00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:24.639
 The next day,

00:04:24.739 --> 00:04:25.719
 as they were on their journey

00:04:25.719 --> 00:04:26.619
 and approaching the city,

00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:28.179
 Peter went up on the housetop

00:04:28.179 --> 00:04:29.839
 about the sixth hour to pray.

00:04:30.539 --> 00:04:31.679
 And he became hungry

00:04:31.679 --> 00:04:33.039
 and wanted something to eat.

00:04:33.719 --> 00:04:35.259
 But while they were preparing it,

00:04:35.299 --> 00:04:36.479
 he fell into a trance

00:04:36.479 --> 00:04:37.819
 and saw the heavens opened

00:04:37.819 --> 00:04:39.839
 and something like a great sheet descending,

00:04:40.559 --> 00:04:42.839
 being let down by its four corners upon the earth.

00:04:43.899 --> 00:04:45.599
 In it were all kinds of animals

00:04:45.599 --> 00:04:47.299
 and reptiles and birds of the air.

00:04:47.300 --> 00:04:49.439
 And there came a voice to him,

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:50.800
 Rise, Peter.

00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:52.420
 Kill and eat.

00:04:53.259 --> 00:04:53.939
 But Peter said,

00:04:54.579 --> 00:04:55.740
 By no means, Lord,

00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:58.280
 for I have never eaten anything

00:04:58.280 --> 00:04:59.680
 that is common or unclean.

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:03.340
 And the voice came to him again a second time,

00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:05.460
 What God has made clean,

00:05:06.080 --> 00:05:07.620
 do not call common.

00:05:08.660 --> 00:05:10.139
 This happened three times,

00:05:10.460 --> 00:05:12.800
 and the thing was taken up at once to heaven.

00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:16.300
 Now while Peter was inwardly perplexed

00:05:16.300 --> 00:05:18.720
 as to what division that he had seen might mean,

00:05:19.180 --> 00:05:19.560
 behold,

00:05:19.660 --> 00:05:21.660
 the men who were sent by Cornelius,

00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:23.800
 having made inquiry for Simon's house,

00:05:24.280 --> 00:05:25.180
 stood at the gate

00:05:25.180 --> 00:05:26.819
 and called out to ask

00:05:26.819 --> 00:05:28.520
 whether Simon, who was called Peter,

00:05:28.819 --> 00:05:29.740
 was lodging there.

00:05:31.300 --> 00:05:33.139
 And while Peter was pondering the vision,

00:05:33.220 --> 00:05:34.319
 the Spirit said to him,

00:05:34.580 --> 00:05:34.980
 Behold,

00:05:35.420 --> 00:05:37.080
 three men are looking for you.

00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:38.600
 Rise and go down

00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:40.580
 and accompany them without hesitation,

00:05:40.579 --> 00:05:42.300
 for I have sent them.

00:05:43.259 --> 00:05:45.599
 And Peter went down to the men and said,

00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:47.759
 I am the one you are looking for.

00:05:48.259 --> 00:05:49.699
 What is the reason for your coming?

00:05:50.500 --> 00:05:51.120
 And they said,

00:05:51.620 --> 00:05:53.000
 Cornelius, a centurion,

00:05:53.139 --> 00:05:54.979
 an upright and God-fearing man,

00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:56.379
 who is well spoken of

00:05:56.379 --> 00:05:57.699
 by the whole Jewish nation,

00:05:58.039 --> 00:05:59.680
 was directed by a holy angel

00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:00.680
 to send for you

00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:01.819
 to come to his house

00:06:01.819 --> 00:06:04.000
 and to hear what you have to say.

00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:05.699
 So he invited them

00:06:05.699 --> 00:06:06.979
 to be his guests.

00:06:06.980 --> 00:06:10.300
 The next day he rose

00:06:10.300 --> 00:06:11.280
 and went away with them

00:06:11.280 --> 00:06:12.220
 and some of the brothers

00:06:12.220 --> 00:06:13.500
 from Joppa accompanied him.

00:06:14.220 --> 00:06:15.180
 And on the following day

00:06:15.180 --> 00:06:16.240
 they entered Caesarea.

00:06:17.379 --> 00:06:18.900
 Cornelius was expecting them

00:06:18.900 --> 00:06:19.920
 and had called together

00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:21.560
 his relatives and close friends.

00:06:22.400 --> 00:06:23.500
 When Peter entered,

00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:25.040
 Cornelius met him

00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:26.680
 and fell down at his feet

00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:28.520
 and worshipped him.

00:06:29.780 --> 00:06:31.480
 But Peter lifted him up saying,

00:06:31.960 --> 00:06:32.660
 Stand up,

00:06:33.259 --> 00:06:35.080
 I too am a man.

00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:38.339
 And as he talked with him,

00:06:38.579 --> 00:06:39.259
 he went in

00:06:39.259 --> 00:06:40.800
 and found many persons gathered.

00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:42.479
 And he said to them,

00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:43.839
 You yourselves know

00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:44.979
 how unlawful it is

00:06:44.979 --> 00:06:46.519
 for a Jew to associate with

00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:47.399
 or to visit anyone

00:06:47.399 --> 00:06:48.300
 of another nation.

00:06:49.139 --> 00:06:50.620
 But God has shown me

00:06:50.620 --> 00:06:52.120
 that I should not call

00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:54.779
 any person common or unclean.

00:06:55.620 --> 00:06:56.839
 So when I was sent for,

00:06:57.099 --> 00:06:58.360
 I came without objection.

00:06:59.079 --> 00:06:59.939
 I asked them

00:06:59.939 --> 00:07:01.099
 why you sent for me.

00:07:02.419 --> 00:07:03.560
 And Cornelius said,

00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:05.139
 Four days ago,

00:07:05.220 --> 00:07:06.100
 about this hour,

00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:07.300
 I was praying in my house

00:07:07.300 --> 00:07:08.160
 at the ninth hour.

00:07:08.459 --> 00:07:08.980
 And behold,

00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:10.240
 a man stood before me

00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:11.019
 in bright clothing

00:07:11.019 --> 00:07:11.519
 and said,

00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:12.660
 Cornelius,

00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:14.180
 your prayer has been heard

00:07:14.180 --> 00:07:15.620
 and your alms have been

00:07:15.620 --> 00:07:16.759
 remembered before God.

00:07:18.379 --> 00:07:19.639
 Send therefore to Joppa

00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:20.459
 and ask for Simon

00:07:20.459 --> 00:07:21.160
 who is called Peter.

00:07:21.699 --> 00:07:22.819
 He is lodging in the house

00:07:22.819 --> 00:07:24.300
 of Simon a tanner by the sea.

00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:26.259
 So I sent for you at once

00:07:26.259 --> 00:07:27.439
 and you have been kind enough

00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:27.840
 to come.

00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:29.199
 Now therefore,

00:07:29.340 --> 00:07:30.199
 we are all here

00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:31.899
 in the presence of God

00:07:31.899 --> 00:07:34.120
 to hear all that you

00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:35.039
 have been commanded

00:07:35.039 --> 00:07:36.179
 by the Lord.

00:07:37.359 --> 00:07:38.659
 So Peter opened his mouth

00:07:38.659 --> 00:07:39.079
 and said,

00:07:39.799 --> 00:07:40.839
 Truly I understand

00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:42.279
 that God shows

00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:43.719
 no partiality.

00:07:44.779 --> 00:07:45.899
 But in every nation,

00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:48.339
 anyone who fears him

00:07:48.339 --> 00:07:49.339
 and does what is right

00:07:49.339 --> 00:07:51.000
 is acceptable to him.

00:07:51.939 --> 00:07:52.899
 As for the word

00:07:52.899 --> 00:07:54.019
 that he sent to Israel

00:07:54.019 --> 00:07:55.000
 preaching good news

00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:56.279
 of peace through Jesus Christ,

00:07:56.599 --> 00:07:57.620
 he is Lord of all.

00:07:58.179 --> 00:07:59.199
 You yourselves know

00:07:59.199 --> 00:07:59.759
 what happened

00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:00.839
 throughout all Judea,

00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:02.119
 beginning from Galilee

00:08:02.119 --> 00:08:02.879
 after the baptism

00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:03.919
 that John proclaimed,

00:08:04.299 --> 00:08:05.139
 how God anointed

00:08:05.139 --> 00:08:06.139
 Jesus of Nazareth

00:08:06.139 --> 00:08:07.379
 with the Holy Spirit

00:08:07.379 --> 00:08:08.119
 and with power.

00:08:08.699 --> 00:08:09.799
 He went about doing good

00:08:09.799 --> 00:08:10.619
 and healing all

00:08:10.619 --> 00:08:11.219
 who were oppressed

00:08:11.219 --> 00:08:11.839
 by the devil,

00:08:12.219 --> 00:08:13.659
 for God was with him.

00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:16.099
 And we are witnesses

00:08:16.099 --> 00:08:17.139
 of all that he did,

00:08:17.239 --> 00:08:18.199
 both in the country

00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:18.839
 of the Jews

00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:19.879
 and in Jerusalem.

00:08:20.919 --> 00:08:21.839
 They put him to death

00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:23.059
 by hanging him on a tree.

00:08:23.859 --> 00:08:25.419
 But God raised him

00:08:25.419 --> 00:08:26.120
 on the third day

00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:27.159
 and made him to appear,

00:08:27.979 --> 00:08:28.939
 not to all the people,

00:08:28.939 --> 00:08:29.800
 but to us

00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:31.040
 who had been chosen

00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:32.299
 by God as witnesses,

00:08:32.820 --> 00:08:34.100
 who ate and drank with him

00:08:34.100 --> 00:08:35.419
 after he rose from the dead.

00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:37.539
 And he commanded us

00:08:37.539 --> 00:08:38.799
 to preach to the people

00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:39.600
 and to testify

00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:40.779
 that he is the one

00:08:40.779 --> 00:08:41.759
 appointed by God

00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:42.340
 to be judge

00:08:42.340 --> 00:08:43.320
 of the living and the dead.

00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:44.519
 To him,

00:08:44.580 --> 00:08:45.200
 all the prophets

00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:45.740
 bear witness

00:08:45.740 --> 00:08:46.399
 that everyone

00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:47.799
 who believes in him

00:08:47.799 --> 00:08:49.179
 receives forgiveness

00:08:49.179 --> 00:08:49.980
 of sins

00:08:49.980 --> 00:08:51.320
 through his name.

00:08:52.580 --> 00:08:53.919
 While Peter was still

00:08:53.919 --> 00:08:54.759
 saying these things,

00:08:54.820 --> 00:08:55.919
 the Holy Spirit fell

00:08:55.919 --> 00:08:57.240
 on all who heard the word.

00:08:57.240 --> 00:08:58.500
 And the believers

00:08:58.500 --> 00:09:00.100
 from among the circumcised

00:09:00.100 --> 00:09:01.120
 who had come with Peter

00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:02.279
 were amazed

00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:03.759
 because the gift

00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:04.759
 of the Holy Spirit

00:09:04.759 --> 00:09:05.779
 was poured out

00:09:05.779 --> 00:09:07.320
 even on the Gentiles.

00:09:07.779 --> 00:09:08.639
 For they were hearing

00:09:08.639 --> 00:09:09.639
 them speaking in tongues

00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:10.720
 and extolling God.

00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:12.519
 Then Peter declared,

00:09:12.659 --> 00:09:14.740
 Can anyone withhold water

00:09:14.740 --> 00:09:16.159
 for baptizing these people

00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:17.360
 who have received

00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:18.320
 the Holy Spirit

00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:19.360
 just as we have?

00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:21.440
 And he commanded them

00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:22.139
 to be baptized

00:09:22.139 --> 00:09:23.519
 in the name of Jesus Christ.

00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:24.820
 Then they asked him

00:09:24.820 --> 00:09:26.019
 to remain for some days.

00:09:26.019 --> 00:09:28.120
 Now the apostles

00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:29.480
 and the brothers

00:09:29.480 --> 00:09:30.659
 who were throughout Judea

00:09:30.659 --> 00:09:32.439
 heard that the Gentiles

00:09:32.439 --> 00:09:33.399
 also had received

00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:34.100
 the word of God.

00:09:35.179 --> 00:09:35.679
 So when Peter

00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:36.600
 went up to Jerusalem,

00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:38.439
 the circumcision party

00:09:38.439 --> 00:09:39.559
 criticized him

00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:39.939
 saying,

00:09:41.059 --> 00:09:43.279
 You went to uncircumcised men

00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:44.159
 and ate with them.

00:09:45.460 --> 00:09:46.539
 But Peter began

00:09:46.539 --> 00:09:47.299
 and explained it

00:09:47.299 --> 00:09:47.919
 to them in order.

00:09:48.620 --> 00:09:49.579
 I was in the city

00:09:49.579 --> 00:09:50.419
 of Joppa praying

00:09:50.419 --> 00:09:51.120
 and in a trance

00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:51.860
 I saw a vision,

00:09:52.019 --> 00:09:52.439
 something like

00:09:52.439 --> 00:09:53.220
 a great sheet

00:09:53.220 --> 00:09:53.699
 descending,

00:09:53.840 --> 00:09:54.519
 being let down

00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:55.000
 from heaven

00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:56.220
 by its four corners

00:09:56.220 --> 00:09:57.439
 and he came down

00:09:57.439 --> 00:09:57.879
 to me.

00:09:58.299 --> 00:09:59.279
 Looking at it closely

00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:00.360
 I observed animals

00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:01.220
 and beasts of prey

00:10:01.220 --> 00:10:01.879
 and reptiles

00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:02.759
 and birds of the air

00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:03.620
 and I heard a voice

00:10:03.620 --> 00:10:04.299
 saying to me,

00:10:04.659 --> 00:10:05.379
 Rise Peter,

00:10:05.539 --> 00:10:06.360
 kill and eat.

00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:07.480
 But I said,

00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:08.500
 By no means, Lord,

00:10:08.579 --> 00:10:09.600
 for nothing common

00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:10.179
 or unclean

00:10:10.179 --> 00:10:11.379
 has ever entered

00:10:11.379 --> 00:10:11.980
 my mouth.

00:10:12.980 --> 00:10:13.699
 But the voice

00:10:13.699 --> 00:10:14.879
 answered a second time

00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:15.279
 from heaven,

00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:17.079
 What God has made clean

00:10:17.079 --> 00:10:18.779
 do not call common.

00:10:19.819 --> 00:10:21.139
 This happened three times

00:10:21.139 --> 00:10:22.120
 and all was drawn up

00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:22.919
 again into heaven.

00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:23.939
 And behold,

00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:25.259
 at that very moment

00:10:25.259 --> 00:10:26.699
 three men arrived

00:10:26.699 --> 00:10:27.579
 at the house

00:10:27.579 --> 00:10:28.299
 in which we were,

00:10:28.779 --> 00:10:29.339
 sent to me

00:10:29.339 --> 00:10:29.939
 from Caesarea.

00:10:30.659 --> 00:10:31.199
 And the Spirit

00:10:31.199 --> 00:10:32.539
 told me to go with him,

00:10:32.779 --> 00:10:34.079
 making no distinction.

00:10:34.899 --> 00:10:35.779
 These six brothers

00:10:35.779 --> 00:10:36.819
 also accompanied me

00:10:36.819 --> 00:10:37.719
 and we entered

00:10:37.719 --> 00:10:38.759
 the man's house.

00:10:40.059 --> 00:10:41.059
 And he told us

00:10:41.059 --> 00:10:41.799
 how he had seen

00:10:41.799 --> 00:10:42.639
 the angel stand

00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:43.099
 in his house

00:10:43.099 --> 00:10:43.519
 and say,

00:10:43.839 --> 00:10:44.659
 Send to Joppa

00:10:44.659 --> 00:10:45.339
 and bring Simon

00:10:45.339 --> 00:10:46.139
 who is called Peter.

00:10:46.259 --> 00:10:47.159
 He will declare to you

00:10:47.159 --> 00:10:48.000
 a message by which

00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:49.139
 you will be saved,

00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:50.679
 you and all your household.

00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:53.159
 As I began to speak,

00:10:53.659 --> 00:10:54.459
 the Holy Spirit

00:10:54.459 --> 00:10:55.500
 fell upon them

00:10:55.500 --> 00:10:56.779
 just as on us

00:10:56.779 --> 00:10:57.279
 at the beginning.

00:10:58.219 --> 00:10:58.939
 And I remember

00:10:58.939 --> 00:10:59.819
 the word of the Lord

00:10:59.819 --> 00:11:00.539
 how he said,

00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:02.299
 John baptized with water,

00:11:02.559 --> 00:11:03.579
 but you will be baptized

00:11:03.579 --> 00:11:04.779
 with the Holy Spirit.

00:11:05.539 --> 00:11:06.739
 If then God gave

00:11:06.739 --> 00:11:07.919
 the same gift to them

00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:08.959
 as he gave to us

00:11:08.959 --> 00:11:09.559
 when we believed

00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:10.739
 in the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:11:11.179 --> 00:11:11.939
 who was I

00:11:11.939 --> 00:11:13.159
 that I could stand

00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:13.879
 in God's way?

00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:15.759
 When they heard

00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:16.740
 these things,

00:11:16.859 --> 00:11:17.699
 they fell silent

00:11:17.700 --> 00:11:19.460
 and they glorified God,

00:11:19.580 --> 00:11:19.759
 saying,

00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:22.220
 Then to the Gentiles also

00:11:22.220 --> 00:11:23.180
 God has granted

00:11:23.180 --> 00:11:23.820
 repentance

00:11:23.820 --> 00:11:25.040
 that leads

00:11:25.040 --> 00:11:26.100
 to life.

00:11:33.940 --> 00:11:34.940
 There's a,

00:11:35.160 --> 00:11:36.420
 there's a,

00:11:36.420 --> 00:11:37.200
 the Korean word

00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:38.240
 for we

00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:39.780
 is

00:11:39.780 --> 00:11:40.340
 uri,

00:11:41.180 --> 00:11:41.720
 which

00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:43.420
 interestingly enough

00:11:43.420 --> 00:11:45.420
 is also the same word

00:11:45.420 --> 00:11:45.840
 for

00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:46.860
 fence.

00:11:47.700 --> 00:11:48.780
 or a,

00:11:48.780 --> 00:11:49.440
 a pen

00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:50.259
 that you keep

00:11:50.259 --> 00:11:51.000
 your animals in.

00:11:51.420 --> 00:11:52.220
 It's used to

00:11:52.220 --> 00:11:53.840
 keep your animals in

00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:55.420
 and keep intruders out.

00:11:56.020 --> 00:11:57.340
 I think it's

00:11:57.340 --> 00:11:59.480
 related for a reason

00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:00.000
 because

00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:02.220
 the word connection

00:12:02.220 --> 00:12:03.340
 recognizes the fact

00:12:03.340 --> 00:12:03.780
 that

00:12:03.780 --> 00:12:05.440
 in order to define

00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:05.860
 we,

00:12:06.980 --> 00:12:07.940
 you need to define

00:12:07.940 --> 00:12:08.840
 they.

00:12:09.920 --> 00:12:10.759
 You need to define

00:12:10.759 --> 00:12:11.759
 yourselves,

00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:12.520
 your identity

00:12:12.520 --> 00:12:13.500
 in contradistinction

00:12:13.500 --> 00:12:13.940
 to

00:12:13.940 --> 00:12:14.720
 what is,

00:12:14.900 --> 00:12:15.600
 what doesn't belong

00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:16.680
 to that group,

00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:17.539
 what is outside

00:12:17.539 --> 00:12:17.899
 of it.

00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:20.519
 And,

00:12:20.599 --> 00:12:21.179
 and even though

00:12:21.179 --> 00:12:22.379
 that's a necessary

00:12:22.379 --> 00:12:23.839
 marker

00:12:23.839 --> 00:12:24.439
 for defining

00:12:24.439 --> 00:12:24.759
 who,

00:12:24.939 --> 00:12:25.979
 who we are,

00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:27.239
 sometimes,

00:12:27.379 --> 00:12:27.759
 unfortunately,

00:12:27.919 --> 00:12:28.459
 even within

00:12:28.459 --> 00:12:29.479
 the family of God,

00:12:29.620 --> 00:12:31.199
 we can,

00:12:31.319 --> 00:12:32.039
 as simple people,

00:12:32.120 --> 00:12:32.739
 draw lines

00:12:32.739 --> 00:12:33.399
 where there shouldn't

00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:33.879
 be lines.

00:12:35.359 --> 00:12:36.079
 Erect fences

00:12:36.079 --> 00:12:36.859
 where there shouldn't

00:12:36.859 --> 00:12:37.299
 be fences.

00:12:37.299 --> 00:12:41.559
 the church of God

00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:42.359
 transcends

00:12:42.359 --> 00:12:43.479
 racial,

00:12:43.719 --> 00:12:44.039
 ethnic,

00:12:44.620 --> 00:12:45.019
 political,

00:12:45.339 --> 00:12:46.620
 and cultural

00:12:46.620 --> 00:12:47.079
 boundaries.

00:12:47.199 --> 00:12:47.899
 We can yield

00:12:47.899 --> 00:12:48.719
 to our worst

00:12:48.719 --> 00:12:50.039
 tribalistic instincts

00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:50.779
 and impulses

00:12:50.779 --> 00:12:51.819
 and divide amongst

00:12:51.819 --> 00:12:52.699
 ourselves at times.

00:12:53.559 --> 00:12:54.279
 And this passage

00:12:54.279 --> 00:12:54.979
 is a reminder

00:12:54.979 --> 00:12:55.479
 that,

00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:57.019
 of the radical

00:12:57.019 --> 00:12:57.919
 unity of the

00:12:57.919 --> 00:12:58.559
 spirit that we

00:12:58.559 --> 00:12:59.359
 have in Jesus.

00:13:00.019 --> 00:13:00.979
 And it teaches us

00:13:00.979 --> 00:13:01.719
 that God,

00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:03.000
 without distinction,

00:13:03.599 --> 00:13:04.419
 grants forgiveness

00:13:04.419 --> 00:13:05.159
 of sin

00:13:05.159 --> 00:13:06.399
 and the gift

00:13:06.399 --> 00:13:07.199
 of the Holy Spirit

00:13:07.199 --> 00:13:09.139
 to all who believe

00:13:09.139 --> 00:13:09.979
 in Jesus Christ.

00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:11.860
 So first,

00:13:11.939 --> 00:13:12.659
 we're going to talk

00:13:12.659 --> 00:13:13.240
 about how God

00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:14.139
 sends His witnesses

00:13:14.139 --> 00:13:15.159
 to all nations,

00:13:15.699 --> 00:13:16.319
 how God grants

00:13:16.319 --> 00:13:17.339
 forgiveness of sins

00:13:17.339 --> 00:13:18.419
 to all who believe,

00:13:18.979 --> 00:13:20.279
 God gives His Holy Spirit

00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:21.379
 to all who believe,

00:13:21.459 --> 00:13:21.959
 and how God

00:13:21.959 --> 00:13:23.139
 receives into fellowship

00:13:23.139 --> 00:13:24.559
 all who believe.

00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:25.299
 So how God

00:13:25.299 --> 00:13:25.899
 treats us

00:13:25.899 --> 00:13:26.699
 without distinction.

00:13:27.979 --> 00:13:28.639
 We've come to,

00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:30.179
 this is a momentous

00:13:30.179 --> 00:13:31.120
 moment in church history,

00:13:31.319 --> 00:13:31.919
 and it begins

00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:32.620
 with a man named

00:13:32.620 --> 00:13:33.240
 Cornelius.

00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:34.519
 He's described

00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:35.240
 in chapter 10,

00:13:35.299 --> 00:13:35.659
 verse 1,

00:13:35.700 --> 00:13:36.600
 as a centurion

00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:37.399
 of what was known

00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:38.500
 as the Italian cohort.

00:13:39.139 --> 00:13:39.820
 A centurion

00:13:39.820 --> 00:13:40.759
 was an officer

00:13:40.759 --> 00:13:41.379
 in the Roman army

00:13:41.379 --> 00:13:42.960
 in charge of 80 soldiers.

00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:45.320
 And this detail

00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:46.279
 tells us that

00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:47.259
 he was a Gentile

00:13:47.259 --> 00:13:48.320
 and he was a Roman citizen

00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:49.180
 because that was required

00:13:49.180 --> 00:13:49.720
 to be a part

00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:50.500
 of the Roman cohort.

00:13:51.899 --> 00:13:52.659
 Verse 2 tells us

00:13:52.659 --> 00:13:53.259
 that he was also

00:13:53.259 --> 00:13:54.120
 a devout man

00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:55.240
 who feared God

00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:56.259
 with all his household

00:13:56.259 --> 00:13:57.159
 and gave alms

00:13:57.159 --> 00:13:58.180
 generously to the people

00:13:58.180 --> 00:13:58.919
 and prayed

00:13:58.919 --> 00:13:59.960
 continually to God.

00:14:00.720 --> 00:14:03.019
 So that he feared God

00:14:03.019 --> 00:14:04.980
 is kind of a technical phrase.

00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:05.879
 It means that

00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:07.159
 he was a God-fearer.

00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:08.439
 That's the term

00:14:08.439 --> 00:14:09.319
 that the Jews

00:14:09.319 --> 00:14:09.919
 used to refer

00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:10.840
 to Gentiles

00:14:10.840 --> 00:14:12.039
 who have not fully

00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:13.220
 converted to Judaism

00:14:13.220 --> 00:14:14.419
 by getting circumcised,

00:14:14.659 --> 00:14:15.279
 but nevertheless

00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:16.759
 revered and worshipped

00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:17.519
 the God of Israel.

00:14:18.759 --> 00:14:19.579
 And so Cornelius

00:14:19.579 --> 00:14:20.059
 was a man

00:14:20.059 --> 00:14:20.799
 who had a humble

00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:22.000
 disposition toward God.

00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:23.419
 He was the ideal

00:14:23.419 --> 00:14:24.559
 God-fearer

00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:25.139
 who prayed

00:14:25.139 --> 00:14:26.259
 and generously gave

00:14:26.259 --> 00:14:27.100
 to people in need.

00:14:27.100 --> 00:14:29.879
 And his piety

00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:30.440
 is emphasized

00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:31.519
 throughout the whole chapter.

00:14:31.680 --> 00:14:32.080
 It's mentioned

00:14:32.080 --> 00:14:32.820
 again and again,

00:14:32.980 --> 00:14:34.360
 but this is not

00:14:34.360 --> 00:14:35.360
 to imply

00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:36.680
 that Cornelius

00:14:36.680 --> 00:14:38.399
 deserved God's grace

00:14:38.399 --> 00:14:39.220
 in salvation

00:14:39.220 --> 00:14:40.960
 due to his devotion.

00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:42.360
 That's not the point

00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:42.940
 of the passage.

00:14:43.659 --> 00:14:43.899
 Rather,

00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:44.659
 the point is that

00:14:44.659 --> 00:14:45.920
 even a Gentile,

00:14:46.500 --> 00:14:48.240
 if he turns to God

00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:49.440
 as Cornelius does,

00:14:49.779 --> 00:14:51.060
 may be saved.

00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:53.460
 Luke drives this home

00:14:53.460 --> 00:14:54.460
 explicitly,

00:14:54.700 --> 00:14:55.200
 drives this home

00:14:55.200 --> 00:14:56.140
 in verse 35.

00:14:56.560 --> 00:14:56.720
 He says,

00:14:56.780 --> 00:14:57.740
 in every nation

00:14:57.740 --> 00:14:58.480
 and anyone

00:14:58.480 --> 00:14:59.660
 who fears God

00:14:59.660 --> 00:15:00.980
 and does what is right

00:15:00.980 --> 00:15:02.200
 is acceptable to him.

00:15:03.100 --> 00:15:04.140
 Cornelius already

00:15:04.140 --> 00:15:05.840
 believed in Israel's God,

00:15:05.920 --> 00:15:07.100
 but he had never heard

00:15:07.100 --> 00:15:08.240
 of the person

00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:09.920
 and work of Jesus.

00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:11.860
 And because of

00:15:11.860 --> 00:15:13.120
 that deficiency,

00:15:13.460 --> 00:15:14.879
 he had no hope

00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:15.540
 for salvation

00:15:15.540 --> 00:15:17.240
 and he had no hope

00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:17.920
 for inclusion

00:15:17.920 --> 00:15:18.860
 among God's people

00:15:18.860 --> 00:15:20.400
 apart from

00:15:20.400 --> 00:15:21.360
 getting circumcised

00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:22.180
 and becoming a Jew.

00:15:23.660 --> 00:15:24.660
 But God,

00:15:24.659 --> 00:15:25.299
 who has heard

00:15:25.299 --> 00:15:25.919
 his prayers

00:15:25.919 --> 00:15:27.139
 and has remembered

00:15:27.139 --> 00:15:27.919
 his almsgiving,

00:15:28.339 --> 00:15:29.039
 paves the way

00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:30.019
 for Cornelius

00:15:30.019 --> 00:15:31.299
 to hear the good news

00:15:31.299 --> 00:15:32.019
 of Jesus Christ

00:15:32.019 --> 00:15:32.939
 and be saved

00:15:32.939 --> 00:15:33.719
 and to be included

00:15:33.719 --> 00:15:34.620
 among God's people

00:15:34.620 --> 00:15:36.620
 as a Gentile.

00:15:39.899 --> 00:15:40.799
 This episode,

00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:41.000
 then,

00:15:41.019 --> 00:15:42.039
 is yet another example

00:15:42.039 --> 00:15:43.439
 of how nothing significant

00:15:43.439 --> 00:15:44.360
 in the book of Acts

00:15:44.360 --> 00:15:46.100
 happens apart from prayer.

00:15:47.379 --> 00:15:48.939
 Cornelius prays,

00:15:49.079 --> 00:15:50.379
 God answers that prayer,

00:15:50.379 --> 00:15:50.439
 Peter,

00:15:50.740 --> 00:15:51.899
 and later Peter

00:15:51.899 --> 00:15:52.460
 is praying

00:15:52.460 --> 00:15:53.659
 and God appears

00:15:53.659 --> 00:15:54.399
 to him in a vision.

00:15:56.919 --> 00:15:58.220
 Some of you here

00:15:58.220 --> 00:15:58.740
 and some of you

00:15:58.740 --> 00:15:59.360
 may be listening

00:15:59.360 --> 00:16:00.840
 outside

00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:02.059
 are not yet

00:16:02.059 --> 00:16:02.799
 a follower of Jesus.

00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:04.860
 You have not come

00:16:04.860 --> 00:16:06.120
 to believe in the good news

00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:07.139
 of Jesus Christ.

00:16:07.700 --> 00:16:09.200
 But if you sincerely

00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:10.419
 seek God

00:16:10.419 --> 00:16:11.500
 as Cornelius did,

00:16:12.100 --> 00:16:13.320
 if you turn to him,

00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:15.480
 then surely

00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:17.259
 God will not turn you away.

00:16:17.259 --> 00:16:20.899
 God answers Cornelius' prayers

00:16:20.899 --> 00:16:22.659
 by sending an angel

00:16:22.659 --> 00:16:24.980
 to Cornelius in a vision

00:16:24.980 --> 00:16:26.340
 and he instructs him

00:16:26.340 --> 00:16:27.620
 to send for Simon Peter

00:16:27.620 --> 00:16:29.220
 who was residing

00:16:29.220 --> 00:16:30.200
 in Joppa at the time

00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:31.000
 with Simon the Tanner.

00:16:32.399 --> 00:16:33.460
 And while Cornelius'

00:16:33.659 --> 00:16:34.500
 three envoys

00:16:34.500 --> 00:16:36.240
 are traveling toward Joppa

00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:37.240
 in response to the vision,

00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:38.819
 God prepares Peter

00:16:38.819 --> 00:16:40.139
 by revealing to him

00:16:40.139 --> 00:16:40.819
 another vision

00:16:40.819 --> 00:16:42.299
 and while Peter

00:16:42.299 --> 00:16:42.779
 was praying,

00:16:42.860 --> 00:16:43.580
 it says in verse 10

00:16:43.580 --> 00:16:44.600
 that he became hungry

00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:46.179
 and wanted something to eat.

00:16:46.179 --> 00:16:48.719
 That's a sensation

00:16:48.719 --> 00:16:49.719
 we're all familiar with

00:16:49.719 --> 00:16:51.059
 and when we're hungry,

00:16:51.299 --> 00:16:52.000
 I tend to dream

00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:53.779
 of my favorite foods,

00:16:54.039 --> 00:16:54.639
 my daydream

00:16:54.639 --> 00:16:55.719
 about my favorite foods.

00:16:56.379 --> 00:16:57.199
 But that's not

00:16:57.199 --> 00:16:58.079
 what happens to Peter.

00:16:59.139 --> 00:17:00.620
 It says in verses 11 to 14

00:17:00.620 --> 00:17:02.099
 that Peter fell into a trance

00:17:02.099 --> 00:17:03.039
 and saw the heavens open

00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:03.519
 and something like

00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:05.079
 a great sheet descending

00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:06.319
 being let down

00:17:06.319 --> 00:17:07.200
 by its four corners

00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:07.759
 upon the earth

00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:09.639
 and it were all kinds

00:17:09.639 --> 00:17:10.240
 of animals,

00:17:10.779 --> 00:17:11.319
 reptiles,

00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:12.200
 birds of the year.

00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:13.759
 And there came a voice

00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:14.179
 to him saying,

00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:14.879
 Rise, Peter,

00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:15.980
 kill and eat.

00:17:16.180 --> 00:17:21.920
 Peter sees specifically

00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:23.759
 unclean animals

00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:25.160
 that he has,

00:17:25.500 --> 00:17:26.560
 as an observant Jew,

00:17:26.680 --> 00:17:27.840
 never before eaten

00:17:27.840 --> 00:17:28.480
 in his life

00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:30.500
 on this sheet

00:17:30.500 --> 00:17:31.460
 lowered from heaven

00:17:31.460 --> 00:17:32.640
 and he's commanded

00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:33.259
 by this voice

00:17:33.259 --> 00:17:33.779
 to eat it.

00:17:35.240 --> 00:17:36.380
 In the Old Testament,

00:17:36.500 --> 00:17:37.640
 God's people were taught

00:17:37.640 --> 00:17:38.700
 to distinguish

00:17:38.700 --> 00:17:40.000
 between the holy

00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:41.320
 and the common,

00:17:41.980 --> 00:17:43.320
 between the clean

00:17:43.320 --> 00:17:44.380
 and the unclean.

00:17:44.980 --> 00:17:46.100
 The holy places,

00:17:46.300 --> 00:17:47.140
 the holy vessels,

00:17:47.360 --> 00:17:48.160
 and the holy people

00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:49.140
 were all things

00:17:49.140 --> 00:17:50.280
 that were specially

00:17:50.280 --> 00:17:51.300
 set apart for God.

00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:52.180
 They were consecrated

00:17:52.180 --> 00:17:52.540
 to him.

00:17:53.380 --> 00:17:55.000
 And things and people

00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:55.840
 that were consecrated

00:17:55.840 --> 00:17:56.800
 to God

00:17:56.800 --> 00:17:58.500
 were not to be defiled

00:17:58.500 --> 00:17:59.740
 or made unclean.

00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:01.180
 So they were not allowed

00:18:01.180 --> 00:18:01.980
 to touch things

00:18:01.980 --> 00:18:03.080
 that were deemed unclean.

00:18:03.120 --> 00:18:03.720
 They were not allowed

00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:04.440
 to eat things

00:18:04.440 --> 00:18:05.960
 that were deemed unclean.

00:18:05.960 --> 00:18:09.460
 And so when Peter

00:18:09.460 --> 00:18:10.340
 saw in his vision

00:18:10.340 --> 00:18:11.480
 the unclean animals

00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:12.360
 that he had never

00:18:12.360 --> 00:18:12.940
 before eaten

00:18:12.940 --> 00:18:13.620
 and he's commanded

00:18:13.620 --> 00:18:14.900
 to kill it and eat it,

00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:15.980
 he would have had

00:18:15.980 --> 00:18:17.100
 a visceral reaction

00:18:17.100 --> 00:18:17.799
 against it.

00:18:18.779 --> 00:18:19.579
 Think of the time

00:18:19.579 --> 00:18:20.940
 when you were first

00:18:20.940 --> 00:18:21.960
 invited to something,

00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:23.000
 to eat something

00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:24.240
 that you had never

00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:25.299
 before considered eating.

00:18:27.980 --> 00:18:29.180
 Maybe chicken feet,

00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:30.960
 fried tarantulas,

00:18:32.559 --> 00:18:33.259
 maggot cheese,

00:18:33.259 --> 00:18:35.099
 live octopus,

00:18:35.240 --> 00:18:35.680
 I think these are

00:18:35.680 --> 00:18:36.319
 all real foods.

00:18:37.819 --> 00:18:38.539
 Or haggis,

00:18:39.859 --> 00:18:40.619
 the Scottish pudding

00:18:40.619 --> 00:18:41.559
 made of sheep organs.

00:18:44.259 --> 00:18:45.079
 And the wills

00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:45.700
 had that before.

00:18:47.539 --> 00:18:48.640
 Even the thought

00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:49.500
 of such foods

00:18:49.500 --> 00:18:51.539
 might make you gag

00:18:51.539 --> 00:18:52.460
 if you have never

00:18:52.460 --> 00:18:53.319
 even considered

00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:53.920
 eating them.

00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:55.680
 If you've never

00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:56.579
 been exposed to them.

00:18:57.740 --> 00:18:58.740
 The command to kill

00:18:58.740 --> 00:19:00.000
 and eat these unclean foods

00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:00.819
 would have elicited

00:19:00.819 --> 00:19:02.019
 a similar reaction

00:19:02.019 --> 00:19:02.799
 from Peter

00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:04.039
 these foods

00:19:04.039 --> 00:19:04.740
 have never even

00:19:04.740 --> 00:19:06.099
 entered Peter's mouth

00:19:06.099 --> 00:19:07.220
 and as far as

00:19:07.220 --> 00:19:08.000
 Peter was concerned

00:19:08.000 --> 00:19:09.159
 these animals

00:19:09.159 --> 00:19:10.919
 were not food.

00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:12.319
 They were not fit

00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:13.599
 for human consumption.

00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:15.059
 And so he emphatically

00:19:15.059 --> 00:19:16.159
 responds in verse 14,

00:19:16.299 --> 00:19:17.740
 by no means Lord

00:19:17.740 --> 00:19:20.579
 for I have never

00:19:20.579 --> 00:19:21.139
 eaten anything

00:19:21.139 --> 00:19:21.659
 that is common

00:19:21.659 --> 00:19:22.279
 or unclean.

00:19:22.879 --> 00:19:23.839
 But God shows Peter

00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:24.619
 the same vision

00:19:24.619 --> 00:19:25.659
 a second time

00:19:25.659 --> 00:19:27.240
 and then a third time

00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:28.500
 and the voice says

00:19:28.500 --> 00:19:30.579
 what God has made clean

00:19:30.579 --> 00:19:31.940
 do not call common.

00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:34.000
 The threefold repetition

00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:34.559
 of the dream

00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:35.460
 shows that this is

00:19:35.460 --> 00:19:36.539
 a certain revelation

00:19:36.539 --> 00:19:37.099
 of God.

00:19:37.419 --> 00:19:38.099
 If you remember

00:19:38.099 --> 00:19:38.819
 from the story

00:19:38.819 --> 00:19:40.079
 of Joseph

00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:41.319
 when he interprets

00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:42.279
 Pharaoh's dream

00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:43.319
 in Genesis 41

00:19:43.319 --> 00:19:44.720
 he says that the fact

00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:45.480
 that God showed

00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:46.859
 Pharaoh the same dream

00:19:46.859 --> 00:19:48.059
 twice means that

00:19:48.059 --> 00:19:48.759
 God has decided

00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:49.419
 for certain

00:19:49.419 --> 00:19:49.960
 that he's going

00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:50.619
 to do this.

00:19:51.180 --> 00:19:52.279
 So the three time

00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:52.700
 repetition

00:19:52.700 --> 00:19:53.559
 this is really

00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:54.339
 something that God

00:19:54.339 --> 00:19:55.099
 has decided

00:19:55.099 --> 00:19:55.960
 it's going to happen

00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:56.960
 this is what he is doing.

00:19:56.960 --> 00:20:01.539
 he has made clean

00:20:01.539 --> 00:20:03.660
 what was formerly

00:20:03.660 --> 00:20:04.740
 considered unclean.

00:20:05.259 --> 00:20:06.319
 That's the same phrase

00:20:06.319 --> 00:20:06.880
 that is used

00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:07.620
 in the Old Testament

00:20:07.620 --> 00:20:08.319
 to describe

00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:09.460
 the purifying rituals

00:20:09.460 --> 00:20:10.279
 by which priests

00:20:10.279 --> 00:20:11.000
 made things

00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:11.620
 that are formerly

00:20:11.620 --> 00:20:12.200
 unclean

00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:13.019
 clean again.

00:20:15.860 --> 00:20:16.600
 The meaning

00:20:16.600 --> 00:20:17.140
 of this vision

00:20:17.140 --> 00:20:17.819
 is made clear

00:20:17.819 --> 00:20:18.779
 by the event

00:20:18.779 --> 00:20:19.319
 that follows.

00:20:19.420 --> 00:20:19.920
 It says in verses

00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:20.960
 17 to 20

00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:22.920
 Now while Peter

00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:24.240
 was inwardly perplexed

00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:25.160
 as to what the vision

00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:25.840
 that he had seen

00:20:25.840 --> 00:20:26.480
 might mean

00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:27.860
 behold the men

00:20:27.860 --> 00:20:28.539
 who were sent

00:20:28.539 --> 00:20:29.380
 by Cornelius

00:20:29.380 --> 00:20:30.200
 having made inquiry

00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:31.200
 for Simon's house

00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:32.380
 stood at the gate

00:20:32.380 --> 00:20:33.019
 and called out

00:20:33.019 --> 00:20:33.880
 to ask whether Simon

00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:34.360
 who was called

00:20:34.360 --> 00:20:35.519
 Peter was lodging there.

00:20:36.100 --> 00:20:36.799
 And while Peter

00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:37.779
 was pondering the vision

00:20:37.779 --> 00:20:38.940
 the spirit said to him

00:20:38.940 --> 00:20:40.720
 behold three men

00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:41.539
 are looking for him

00:20:41.539 --> 00:20:42.880
 rise and go down

00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:43.579
 and accompany them

00:20:43.579 --> 00:20:44.360
 without hesitation

00:20:44.360 --> 00:20:45.660
 for I have sent them.

00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:47.600
 Three times Peter

00:20:47.600 --> 00:20:48.519
 saw this vision

00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:49.100
 of the sheep

00:20:49.100 --> 00:20:49.940
 being lowered from heaven

00:20:49.940 --> 00:20:51.440
 and not coincidentally

00:20:51.440 --> 00:20:52.600
 there are three men

00:20:52.600 --> 00:20:54.200
 three Gentile men

00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:55.240
 who are standing

00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:56.000
 at his door

00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:57.440
 calling upon him.

00:20:58.779 --> 00:20:59.960
 By God's sovereign

00:20:59.960 --> 00:21:00.340
 guidance

00:21:00.340 --> 00:21:01.080
 right at the

00:21:01.080 --> 00:21:02.340
 conclusion of the vision

00:21:02.340 --> 00:21:03.480
 is when they knock

00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:03.960
 on the door

00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:05.279
 and they come to him

00:21:05.279 --> 00:21:06.019
 and the spirit

00:21:06.019 --> 00:21:06.640
 prompts Peter

00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:07.259
 to go down

00:21:07.259 --> 00:21:07.880
 and accompany them

00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:08.820
 without hesitation.

00:21:09.660 --> 00:21:10.799
 If you're using

00:21:10.799 --> 00:21:11.580
 the English Standard

00:21:11.580 --> 00:21:12.360
 Version of the Bible

00:21:12.360 --> 00:21:12.940
 ESV

00:21:12.940 --> 00:21:13.539
 you'll notice

00:21:13.539 --> 00:21:14.360
 that there's a footnote

00:21:14.360 --> 00:21:15.140
 next to the phrase

00:21:15.140 --> 00:21:16.039
 without hesitation

00:21:16.039 --> 00:21:17.759
 and if you follow

00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:18.220
 that footnote

00:21:18.220 --> 00:21:19.200
 to the bottom of the page

00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:19.660
 it says

00:21:19.660 --> 00:21:20.240
 quote

00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:21.600
 making no distinction

00:21:21.600 --> 00:21:23.800
 so that's the more

00:21:23.800 --> 00:21:24.779
 literal translation

00:21:24.779 --> 00:21:26.060
 in fact the same word

00:21:26.060 --> 00:21:26.880
 is translated

00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:28.140
 making no distinction

00:21:28.140 --> 00:21:29.000
 later in

00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:30.460
 verse 12

00:21:30.460 --> 00:21:31.340
 of chapter 11

00:21:31.340 --> 00:21:32.620
 so Peter

00:21:32.620 --> 00:21:33.960
 is not

00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:35.040
 to discriminate

00:21:35.040 --> 00:21:36.580
 against these men

00:21:36.580 --> 00:21:38.080
 because they are

00:21:38.080 --> 00:21:38.720
 Gentiles

00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:40.019
 he is to

00:21:40.019 --> 00:21:40.880
 accompany them

00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:42.220
 making no distinction

00:21:42.220 --> 00:21:43.200
 between Jew

00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:44.040
 and Gentile

00:21:44.040 --> 00:21:44.860
 that's

00:21:44.860 --> 00:21:45.640
 the command

00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:46.620
 don't

00:21:46.620 --> 00:21:47.240
 it's not just

00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:47.920
 don't hesitate

00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:49.259
 make no distinction

00:21:49.259 --> 00:21:49.840
 between Jew

00:21:49.840 --> 00:21:50.460
 and Gentile

00:21:50.460 --> 00:21:52.400
 that this is the real

00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:53.180
 point of the vision

00:21:53.180 --> 00:21:54.200
 is seen clearly

00:21:54.200 --> 00:21:55.000
 in the ensuing verses

00:21:55.000 --> 00:21:55.800
 in verse 23

00:21:55.800 --> 00:21:56.840
 Peter invites them

00:21:56.840 --> 00:21:57.620
 to be his guests

00:21:57.620 --> 00:21:59.300
 despite the fact

00:21:59.300 --> 00:21:59.960
 that as Peter says

00:21:59.960 --> 00:22:00.580
 in verse 28

00:22:00.580 --> 00:22:01.700
 it is unlawful

00:22:01.700 --> 00:22:02.220
 for a Jew

00:22:02.220 --> 00:22:03.220
 to associate with

00:22:03.220 --> 00:22:03.779
 or to visit

00:22:03.779 --> 00:22:05.180
 anyone of another nation

00:22:05.180 --> 00:22:06.080
 they didn't want

00:22:06.080 --> 00:22:06.460
 to be defiled

00:22:06.460 --> 00:22:07.100
 Jews avoided

00:22:07.100 --> 00:22:08.259
 sharing foods

00:22:08.259 --> 00:22:09.220
 with Gentiles

00:22:09.220 --> 00:22:10.240
 because of their

00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:10.920
 idolatry

00:22:10.920 --> 00:22:11.539
 they didn't want

00:22:11.539 --> 00:22:12.100
 to be defiled

00:22:12.100 --> 00:22:12.500
 by that

00:22:12.500 --> 00:22:13.100
 also because

00:22:13.100 --> 00:22:13.840
 Gentiles often

00:22:13.840 --> 00:22:15.360
 ate unclean foods

00:22:15.360 --> 00:22:16.400
 were in contact

00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:17.519
 with unclean things

00:22:17.519 --> 00:22:18.340
 that could be

00:22:18.340 --> 00:22:19.340
 defiling for the Jew

00:22:19.340 --> 00:22:23.000
 and so

00:22:23.000 --> 00:22:24.059
 just as when

00:22:24.059 --> 00:22:24.799
 God gave

00:22:24.799 --> 00:22:25.860
 the dietary laws

00:22:25.860 --> 00:22:26.860
 in the Old Testament

00:22:26.860 --> 00:22:27.920
 in the first place

00:22:27.920 --> 00:22:28.799
 he wasn't so much

00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:29.500
 concerned about

00:22:29.500 --> 00:22:30.140
 food

00:22:30.140 --> 00:22:31.259
 as he was about

00:22:31.259 --> 00:22:32.120
 distinguishing

00:22:32.120 --> 00:22:33.140
 and setting apart

00:22:33.140 --> 00:22:34.019
 the people of God

00:22:34.019 --> 00:22:35.039
 marking them out

00:22:35.039 --> 00:22:36.619
 especially set apart

00:22:36.619 --> 00:22:37.639
 from the other nations

00:22:37.639 --> 00:22:39.220
 what he's doing here

00:22:39.220 --> 00:22:40.139
 is similar

00:22:40.139 --> 00:22:40.839
 he is saying

00:22:40.839 --> 00:22:42.079
 that not just

00:22:42.079 --> 00:22:42.940
 that the foods

00:22:42.940 --> 00:22:43.859
 are declared clean

00:22:43.859 --> 00:22:44.839
 but that it is

00:22:44.839 --> 00:22:45.899
 no longer necessary

00:22:45.899 --> 00:22:47.599
 to mark out Jews

00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:48.279
 as separate

00:22:48.279 --> 00:22:49.259
 from the Gentiles

00:22:49.259 --> 00:22:50.799
 that the Gentiles

00:22:50.799 --> 00:22:51.700
 have been declared

00:22:51.700 --> 00:22:52.399
 clean

00:22:52.399 --> 00:22:55.200
 and that's why

00:22:55.200 --> 00:22:55.980
 Peter is to

00:22:55.980 --> 00:22:56.899
 accompany them

00:22:56.899 --> 00:22:57.980
 without making

00:22:57.980 --> 00:22:58.579
 a distinction

00:22:58.579 --> 00:23:00.579
 now this is

00:23:00.579 --> 00:23:01.099
 a fulfillment

00:23:01.099 --> 00:23:01.799
 of the verse

00:23:01.799 --> 00:23:02.579
 that we've been seeing

00:23:02.579 --> 00:23:03.259
 play out throughout

00:23:03.259 --> 00:23:03.779
 the book of Acts

00:23:03.779 --> 00:23:04.460
 again and again

00:23:04.460 --> 00:23:05.440
 in Acts chapter 1

00:23:05.440 --> 00:23:05.940
 verse 8

00:23:05.940 --> 00:23:07.039
 but you will receive

00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:07.960
 power when the Holy

00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:09.039
 Spirit comes upon you

00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:09.720
 and you will be

00:23:09.720 --> 00:23:10.279
 my witnesses

00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:11.100
 in Jerusalem

00:23:11.100 --> 00:23:11.880
 in all Judea

00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:12.279
 and Samaria

00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:12.799
 and to the ends

00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:13.240
 of the earth

00:23:13.240 --> 00:23:14.180
 so the gospel

00:23:14.180 --> 00:23:15.140
 has reached the Jews

00:23:15.140 --> 00:23:15.640
 in Jerusalem

00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:16.220
 and Judea

00:23:16.220 --> 00:23:16.740
 it has reached

00:23:16.740 --> 00:23:17.519
 the Samaritans

00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:18.100
 in Samaria

00:23:18.100 --> 00:23:19.120
 and now it's

00:23:19.120 --> 00:23:19.860
 finally reaching

00:23:19.860 --> 00:23:20.660
 the Gentiles

00:23:20.660 --> 00:23:21.240
 in the end

00:23:21.240 --> 00:23:21.680
 of the earth

00:23:21.680 --> 00:23:24.100
 Revelation 5

00:23:24.100 --> 00:23:24.840
 verse 9

00:23:24.840 --> 00:23:25.480
 teaches us

00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:26.100
 that Christ

00:23:26.100 --> 00:23:27.180
 by his blood

00:23:27.180 --> 00:23:28.120
 has ransomed

00:23:28.120 --> 00:23:29.220
 people for God

00:23:29.220 --> 00:23:31.000
 from every tribe

00:23:31.000 --> 00:23:32.819
 and every language

00:23:32.819 --> 00:23:33.480
 and people

00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:34.000
 and nation

00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:36.759
 there are people

00:23:36.759 --> 00:23:37.420
 whom God

00:23:37.420 --> 00:23:38.079
 has appointed

00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:38.799
 for salvation

00:23:38.799 --> 00:23:40.319
 among every tribe

00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:40.980
 people

00:23:40.980 --> 00:23:41.839
 and nation

00:23:41.839 --> 00:23:42.500
 and language

00:23:42.500 --> 00:23:44.519
 this is why

00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:45.119
 we cannot

00:23:45.119 --> 00:23:46.000
 complete the

00:23:46.000 --> 00:23:46.619
 Great Commission

00:23:46.619 --> 00:23:47.720
 unless

00:23:47.720 --> 00:23:49.259
 we go to the

00:23:49.259 --> 00:23:49.579
 nations

00:23:49.579 --> 00:23:50.279
 to proclaim

00:23:50.279 --> 00:23:50.960
 the gospel

00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:51.839
 of Jesus Christ

00:23:51.839 --> 00:23:53.980
 to the people

00:23:53.980 --> 00:23:54.380
 groups

00:23:54.380 --> 00:23:55.140
 and the ethnic

00:23:55.140 --> 00:23:55.460
 groups

00:23:55.460 --> 00:23:56.119
 that have not

00:23:56.119 --> 00:23:56.579
 heard it

00:23:56.579 --> 00:23:59.839
 this movement

00:23:59.839 --> 00:24:00.460
 of the gospel

00:24:00.460 --> 00:24:01.420
 toward the Gentiles

00:24:01.420 --> 00:24:02.140
 is a momentous

00:24:02.140 --> 00:24:02.519
 development

00:24:02.519 --> 00:24:03.200
 in the history

00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:03.700
 of the church

00:24:03.700 --> 00:24:04.099
 and it would

00:24:04.099 --> 00:24:04.519
 not have

00:24:04.519 --> 00:24:04.859
 happened

00:24:04.859 --> 00:24:05.779
 without God

00:24:05.779 --> 00:24:06.339
 driving

00:24:06.339 --> 00:24:07.680
 these events

00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:08.879
 notice how

00:24:08.879 --> 00:24:09.639
 he's the one

00:24:09.639 --> 00:24:10.039
 who takes

00:24:10.039 --> 00:24:10.500
 initiative

00:24:10.500 --> 00:24:11.039
 he's the one

00:24:11.039 --> 00:24:11.599
 who guides

00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:12.139
 the process

00:24:12.139 --> 00:24:13.039
 he's the one

00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:13.539
 who shows

00:24:13.539 --> 00:24:14.180
 the visions

00:24:14.180 --> 00:24:15.000
 to make

00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:15.920
 this series

00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:16.859
 of unexpected

00:24:16.859 --> 00:24:17.740
 events happen

00:24:17.740 --> 00:24:22.740
 but as he

00:24:22.740 --> 00:24:23.240
 does that

00:24:23.240 --> 00:24:23.740
 it doesn't

00:24:23.740 --> 00:24:24.519
 merely show

00:24:24.519 --> 00:24:25.200
 God's

00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:25.539
 sovereignty

00:24:25.539 --> 00:24:25.900
 it also

00:24:25.900 --> 00:24:26.319
 shows

00:24:26.319 --> 00:24:26.599
 human

00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:27.259
 responsibility

00:24:27.259 --> 00:24:29.900
 in the same

00:24:29.900 --> 00:24:30.339
 way early

00:24:30.339 --> 00:24:31.039
 in chapter 9

00:24:31.039 --> 00:24:31.839
 God prepared

00:24:31.839 --> 00:24:32.460
 both Saul

00:24:32.460 --> 00:24:33.240
 and Ananias

00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:34.620
 by showing

00:24:34.620 --> 00:24:35.079
 them visions

00:24:35.079 --> 00:24:35.660
 but then he

00:24:35.660 --> 00:24:36.680
 sent Ananias

00:24:36.680 --> 00:24:37.279
 to minister

00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:40.500
 he now

00:24:40.500 --> 00:24:41.039
 sends

00:24:41.039 --> 00:24:42.039
 Peter

00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:42.819
 to minister

00:24:42.819 --> 00:24:43.559
 to Cornelius

00:24:43.559 --> 00:24:43.839
 and his

00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:44.259
 companions

00:24:44.259 --> 00:24:46.279
 and it's

00:24:46.279 --> 00:24:46.879
 not uncommon

00:24:46.879 --> 00:24:47.399
 for God

00:24:47.399 --> 00:24:47.920
 to reveal

00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:48.339
 himself

00:24:48.339 --> 00:24:48.859
 in visions

00:24:48.859 --> 00:24:49.220
 in this

00:24:49.220 --> 00:24:49.379
 way

00:24:49.379 --> 00:24:49.759
 nowadays

00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:50.579
 as well

00:24:50.579 --> 00:24:51.980
 according to

00:24:51.980 --> 00:24:52.420
 a report

00:24:52.420 --> 00:24:53.079
 published by

00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:53.980
 Mission Frontiers

00:24:53.980 --> 00:24:54.460
 magazine

00:24:54.460 --> 00:24:55.539
 out of 600

00:24:55.539 --> 00:24:56.139
 Muslim

00:24:56.139 --> 00:24:56.700
 converts

00:24:56.700 --> 00:24:57.319
 to Christianity

00:24:57.319 --> 00:24:58.859
 25%

00:24:58.859 --> 00:24:59.980
 experienced

00:24:59.980 --> 00:25:00.619
 a dream

00:25:00.619 --> 00:25:01.279
 or a vision

00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:02.039
 that led

00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:02.339
 to their

00:25:02.339 --> 00:25:02.779
 conversion

00:25:02.779 --> 00:25:04.559
 there's

00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:04.759
 actually

00:25:04.759 --> 00:25:05.319
 an entire

00:25:05.319 --> 00:25:05.759
 book

00:25:05.759 --> 00:25:07.039
 just

00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:08.259
 cataloging

00:25:08.259 --> 00:25:08.619
 dreams

00:25:08.619 --> 00:25:08.980
 and visions

00:25:08.980 --> 00:25:09.399
 like this

00:25:09.399 --> 00:25:09.920
 entitled

00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:10.379
 dreams

00:25:10.379 --> 00:25:10.960
 and visions

00:25:10.960 --> 00:25:12.579
 is Jesus

00:25:12.579 --> 00:25:13.059
 awakening

00:25:13.059 --> 00:25:13.460
 the Muslim

00:25:13.460 --> 00:25:13.859
 world

00:25:13.859 --> 00:25:17.680
 often

00:25:17.680 --> 00:25:17.940
 there's

00:25:17.940 --> 00:25:18.420
 a pattern

00:25:18.420 --> 00:25:18.899
 they see

00:25:18.899 --> 00:25:19.200
 a picture

00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:19.619
 of Jesus

00:25:19.619 --> 00:25:19.960
 or an

00:25:19.960 --> 00:25:20.339
 angel

00:25:20.339 --> 00:25:20.819
 telling them

00:25:20.819 --> 00:25:21.519
 follow me

00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:22.859
 and they're

00:25:22.859 --> 00:25:23.420
 led to

00:25:23.420 --> 00:25:24.240
 a Christian

00:25:24.240 --> 00:25:25.480
 who can

00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:25.899
 share the

00:25:25.899 --> 00:25:26.440
 gospel with

00:25:26.440 --> 00:25:26.639
 them

00:25:26.639 --> 00:25:27.359
 or to a

00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:27.720
 church

00:25:27.720 --> 00:25:28.379
 or to

00:25:28.379 --> 00:25:28.599
 someone

00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:28.839
 who can

00:25:28.839 --> 00:25:29.119
 give them

00:25:29.119 --> 00:25:29.519
 a Bible

00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:31.559
 one

00:25:31.559 --> 00:25:32.099
 particularly

00:25:32.099 --> 00:25:32.460
 dramatic

00:25:32.460 --> 00:25:32.799
 story

00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:33.220
 is about

00:25:33.220 --> 00:25:33.779
 a migrant

00:25:33.779 --> 00:25:34.140
 family

00:25:34.140 --> 00:25:34.360
 that was

00:25:34.360 --> 00:25:34.700
 traveling

00:25:34.700 --> 00:25:35.160
 by boat

00:25:35.160 --> 00:25:35.819
 from Turkey

00:25:35.819 --> 00:25:36.960
 to Greece

00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:37.640
 let me

00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:37.920
 read it

00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:38.259
 for you

00:25:38.259 --> 00:25:38.819
 not too

00:25:38.819 --> 00:25:39.100
 long

00:25:39.100 --> 00:25:40.079
 it says

00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:40.620
 on the way

00:25:40.620 --> 00:25:41.259
 they lost

00:25:41.259 --> 00:25:41.900
 their seven

00:25:41.900 --> 00:25:42.259
 year old

00:25:42.259 --> 00:25:42.539
 daughter

00:25:42.539 --> 00:25:42.940
 into the

00:25:42.940 --> 00:25:43.220
 water

00:25:43.220 --> 00:25:44.779
 everyone

00:25:44.779 --> 00:25:45.220
 in the

00:25:45.220 --> 00:25:45.559
 crowded

00:25:45.559 --> 00:25:46.120
 boat

00:25:46.120 --> 00:25:46.579
 was looking

00:25:46.579 --> 00:25:46.920
 for her

00:25:46.920 --> 00:25:47.340
 but couldn't

00:25:47.340 --> 00:25:47.860
 find her

00:25:47.860 --> 00:25:49.039
 suddenly

00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:49.799
 she appeared

00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:50.039
 on the

00:25:50.039 --> 00:25:50.480
 other side

00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:50.700
 of the

00:25:50.700 --> 00:25:50.900
 boat

00:25:50.900 --> 00:25:51.220
 saying

00:25:51.220 --> 00:25:51.579
 over

00:25:51.579 --> 00:25:52.079
 and over

00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:53.100
 a man

00:25:53.100 --> 00:25:53.740
 who walked

00:25:53.740 --> 00:25:54.120
 on the

00:25:54.120 --> 00:25:54.460
 water

00:25:54.460 --> 00:25:55.059
 took me

00:25:55.059 --> 00:25:55.480
 and brought

00:25:55.480 --> 00:25:55.620
 me

00:25:55.620 --> 00:25:55.920
 to the

00:25:55.920 --> 00:25:56.120
 other

00:25:56.120 --> 00:25:56.440
 side

00:25:56.440 --> 00:25:56.640
 of the

00:25:56.640 --> 00:25:56.900
 boat

00:25:56.900 --> 00:25:58.480
 the parents

00:25:58.480 --> 00:25:58.960
 dismissed

00:25:58.960 --> 00:25:59.440
 her words

00:25:59.440 --> 00:25:59.860
 as silly

00:25:59.860 --> 00:26:01.680
 upon arriving

00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:02.299
 on the island

00:26:02.299 --> 00:26:02.920
 of Lesbos

00:26:02.920 --> 00:26:03.360
 they met

00:26:03.360 --> 00:26:03.820
 a Christian

00:26:03.820 --> 00:26:04.519
 who made

00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:04.920
 a fire

00:26:04.920 --> 00:26:05.299
 and offered

00:26:05.299 --> 00:26:05.700
 to talk

00:26:05.700 --> 00:26:06.019
 to them

00:26:06.019 --> 00:26:07.220
 that day

00:26:07.220 --> 00:26:07.759
 without knowing

00:26:07.759 --> 00:26:08.220
 what happened

00:26:08.220 --> 00:26:08.720
 he asked

00:26:08.720 --> 00:26:09.180
 if they would

00:26:09.180 --> 00:26:09.680
 like to know

00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:10.440
 about a God

00:26:10.440 --> 00:26:11.100
 who walked

00:26:11.100 --> 00:26:11.759
 on water

00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:13.180
 they started

00:26:13.180 --> 00:26:13.580
 crying

00:26:13.580 --> 00:26:15.779
 the man had

00:26:15.779 --> 00:26:16.400
 never used

00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:17.019
 that illustration

00:26:17.019 --> 00:26:17.880
 in evangelism

00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:18.620
 but that morning

00:26:18.620 --> 00:26:19.259
 he felt like

00:26:19.259 --> 00:26:19.880
 he had to

00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:21.500
 they asked him

00:26:21.500 --> 00:26:22.660
 who are you

00:26:22.660 --> 00:26:23.980
 to which he replied

00:26:23.980 --> 00:26:24.720
 I'm a Christian

00:26:24.720 --> 00:26:26.200
 they said

00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:27.000
 what do you mean

00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:28.180
 walk on the water

00:26:28.180 --> 00:26:29.220
 he opened

00:26:29.220 --> 00:26:29.620
 the Bible

00:26:29.620 --> 00:26:29.940
 and read

00:26:29.940 --> 00:26:30.320
 the story

00:26:30.320 --> 00:26:30.759
 of Jesus

00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:31.380
 walking

00:26:31.380 --> 00:26:31.980
 on the water

00:26:31.980 --> 00:26:33.200
 they continued

00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:33.740
 crying

00:26:33.740 --> 00:26:34.960
 our daughter

00:26:34.960 --> 00:26:35.560
 fell off

00:26:35.560 --> 00:26:35.960
 the boat

00:26:35.960 --> 00:26:36.880
 they explained

00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:37.799
 we thought

00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:38.259
 she was

00:26:38.259 --> 00:26:39.320
 crazy

00:26:39.320 --> 00:26:40.000
 because she

00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:40.500
 was dry

00:26:40.500 --> 00:26:40.920
 on the other

00:26:40.920 --> 00:26:41.299
 side

00:26:41.299 --> 00:26:42.620
 we didn't

00:26:42.620 --> 00:26:43.380
 understand it

00:26:43.380 --> 00:26:44.440
 but she kept

00:26:44.440 --> 00:26:45.039
 on saying

00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:45.759
 it was a man

00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:46.320
 who walked

00:26:46.320 --> 00:26:46.880
 on the water

00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:47.620
 that took

00:26:47.620 --> 00:26:48.000
 me to

00:26:48.000 --> 00:26:48.340
 the other

00:26:48.340 --> 00:26:48.759
 side

00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:51.299
 to this

00:26:51.299 --> 00:26:51.700
 day

00:26:51.700 --> 00:26:52.120
 God

00:26:52.120 --> 00:26:53.299
 is sovereignly

00:26:53.299 --> 00:26:54.080
 saving

00:26:54.080 --> 00:26:54.500
 people

00:26:54.500 --> 00:26:56.420
 to this

00:26:56.420 --> 00:26:56.680
 day

00:26:56.680 --> 00:26:57.120
 God

00:26:57.120 --> 00:26:57.820
 sometimes

00:26:57.820 --> 00:26:58.140
 uses

00:26:58.140 --> 00:26:58.640
 dreams

00:26:58.640 --> 00:26:59.240
 and visions

00:26:59.240 --> 00:26:59.980
 to reveal

00:26:59.980 --> 00:27:00.500
 himself

00:27:00.500 --> 00:27:02.039
 to people

00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:02.680
 and that's

00:27:02.680 --> 00:27:03.420
 his gracious

00:27:03.420 --> 00:27:04.060
 providence

00:27:04.060 --> 00:27:07.799
 but God

00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:08.220
 doesn't do

00:27:08.220 --> 00:27:08.560
 everything

00:27:08.560 --> 00:27:09.180
 by himself

00:27:09.180 --> 00:27:10.380
 God

00:27:10.380 --> 00:27:11.299
 could have

00:27:11.299 --> 00:27:12.240
 shown Cornelius

00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:13.019
 everything he

00:27:13.019 --> 00:27:13.640
 needed to know

00:27:13.640 --> 00:27:14.180
 in his vision

00:27:14.180 --> 00:27:14.799
 to be saved

00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:15.900
 but he doesn't

00:27:15.900 --> 00:27:16.200
 do that

00:27:16.200 --> 00:27:16.600
 he takes

00:27:16.600 --> 00:27:17.140
 the longer

00:27:17.140 --> 00:27:17.759
 and harder

00:27:17.759 --> 00:27:18.200
 route

00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:19.480
 of involving

00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:20.019
 Peter

00:27:20.019 --> 00:27:22.060
 having Cornelius

00:27:22.060 --> 00:27:23.279
 send for

00:27:23.279 --> 00:27:23.539
 Peter

00:27:23.539 --> 00:27:23.900
 and having

00:27:23.900 --> 00:27:24.560
 Peter travel

00:27:24.560 --> 00:27:26.019
 to Caesarea

00:27:26.019 --> 00:27:27.279
 to preach

00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:27.779
 the gospel

00:27:27.779 --> 00:27:28.539
 to Cornelius

00:27:28.539 --> 00:27:29.500
 once again

00:27:29.500 --> 00:27:29.900
 this is a

00:27:29.900 --> 00:27:30.180
 pattern

00:27:30.180 --> 00:27:30.519
 that we

00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:31.139
 see over

00:27:31.139 --> 00:27:31.519
 and over

00:27:31.519 --> 00:27:31.839
 again

00:27:31.839 --> 00:27:32.039
 in the

00:27:32.039 --> 00:27:32.319
 book of

00:27:32.319 --> 00:27:32.639
 Acts

00:27:32.639 --> 00:27:33.359
 just as

00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:33.539
 God

00:27:33.539 --> 00:27:33.759
 used

00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:34.220
 Ananias

00:27:34.220 --> 00:27:34.619
 to preach

00:27:34.619 --> 00:27:35.099
 the gospel

00:27:35.099 --> 00:27:35.680
 to Saul

00:27:35.680 --> 00:27:37.819
 and even

00:27:37.819 --> 00:27:38.279
 in the story

00:27:38.279 --> 00:27:38.759
 I shared

00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:39.079
 Jesus

00:27:39.079 --> 00:27:39.639
 walking on

00:27:39.639 --> 00:27:40.079
 the water

00:27:40.079 --> 00:27:40.779
 Jesus

00:27:40.779 --> 00:27:41.379
 doesn't tell

00:27:41.379 --> 00:27:41.539
 them

00:27:41.539 --> 00:27:41.900
 everything

00:27:41.900 --> 00:27:42.579
 right then

00:27:42.579 --> 00:27:44.079
 he prepares

00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:44.660
 them to

00:27:44.660 --> 00:27:45.099
 meet the

00:27:45.099 --> 00:27:45.519
 family

00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:46.220
 the Christian

00:27:46.220 --> 00:27:46.839
 who will

00:27:46.839 --> 00:27:47.259
 then open

00:27:47.259 --> 00:27:47.700
 the Bible

00:27:47.700 --> 00:27:48.259
 and share

00:27:48.259 --> 00:27:48.759
 the gospel

00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:49.220
 with them

00:27:49.220 --> 00:27:50.680
 this is

00:27:50.680 --> 00:27:51.319
 the normal

00:27:51.319 --> 00:27:51.980
 way in

00:27:51.980 --> 00:27:52.500
 which God

00:27:52.500 --> 00:27:53.000
 works

00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:53.660
 through

00:27:53.660 --> 00:27:53.880
 his

00:27:53.880 --> 00:27:54.220
 people

00:27:54.220 --> 00:27:56.180
 look with

00:27:56.180 --> 00:27:56.640
 me at

00:27:56.640 --> 00:27:57.299
 Cornelius'

00:27:57.440 --> 00:27:58.119
 initial encounter

00:27:58.119 --> 00:27:58.519
 with Peter

00:27:58.519 --> 00:27:58.859
 in verses

00:27:58.859 --> 00:27:59.880
 24 to 26

00:27:59.880 --> 00:28:00.279
 it says

00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:00.880
 Cornelius

00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:01.680
 was expecting

00:28:01.680 --> 00:28:02.079
 them and

00:28:02.079 --> 00:28:02.579
 had called

00:28:02.579 --> 00:28:03.079
 together his

00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:03.660
 relatives and

00:28:03.660 --> 00:28:04.299
 close friends

00:28:04.299 --> 00:28:05.440
 when Peter

00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:05.920
 entered

00:28:05.920 --> 00:28:07.559
 Cornelius met

00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:07.819
 him and

00:28:07.819 --> 00:28:08.500
 fell down

00:28:08.500 --> 00:28:08.920
 at his feet

00:28:08.920 --> 00:28:09.480
 and worshipped

00:28:09.480 --> 00:28:09.740
 him

00:28:09.740 --> 00:28:10.400
 but Peter

00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:10.900
 lifted him

00:28:10.900 --> 00:28:11.299
 up saying

00:28:11.299 --> 00:28:12.000
 stand up

00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:12.579
 I too

00:28:12.579 --> 00:28:13.240
 am a man

00:28:13.240 --> 00:28:15.220
 Cornelius

00:28:15.220 --> 00:28:16.200
 was so eagerly

00:28:16.200 --> 00:28:16.640
 awaiting

00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:17.299
 Peter's arrival

00:28:17.299 --> 00:28:17.759
 he had called

00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:18.380
 together all

00:28:18.380 --> 00:28:18.700
 of his

00:28:18.700 --> 00:28:19.380
 relatives and

00:28:19.380 --> 00:28:20.140
 close friends

00:28:20.140 --> 00:28:20.559
 because he

00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:21.380
 wanted them

00:28:21.380 --> 00:28:21.859
 to hear this

00:28:21.859 --> 00:28:22.480
 important message

00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:22.920
 from God

00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:23.339
 as well

00:28:23.339 --> 00:28:25.120
 and Cornelius

00:28:25.120 --> 00:28:26.460
 falls prostrate

00:28:26.460 --> 00:28:27.559
 at his feet

00:28:27.559 --> 00:28:28.000
 at Peter's

00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:28.319
 feet and

00:28:28.319 --> 00:28:29.140
 worships him

00:28:29.140 --> 00:28:30.360
 and this is

00:28:30.360 --> 00:28:30.799
 a revealing

00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:31.299
 detail

00:28:31.299 --> 00:28:32.039
 Cornelius

00:28:32.039 --> 00:28:32.720
 thought that

00:28:32.720 --> 00:28:33.559
 the person

00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:34.360
 who would

00:28:34.360 --> 00:28:35.220
 be conveying

00:28:35.220 --> 00:28:35.740
 to him

00:28:35.740 --> 00:28:36.860
 so important

00:28:36.860 --> 00:28:37.579
 a message

00:28:37.579 --> 00:28:38.200
 from God

00:28:38.200 --> 00:28:38.759
 himself

00:28:38.759 --> 00:28:40.019
 the saving

00:28:40.019 --> 00:28:40.480
 news of

00:28:40.480 --> 00:28:40.880
 God

00:28:40.880 --> 00:28:42.200
 must either

00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:42.960
 be God

00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:43.460
 himself

00:28:43.460 --> 00:28:44.360
 or at least

00:28:44.360 --> 00:28:44.980
 a divine

00:28:44.980 --> 00:28:45.460
 figure

00:28:45.460 --> 00:28:48.980
 an angelic

00:28:48.980 --> 00:28:49.440
 being of some

00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:49.960
 kind maybe

00:28:49.960 --> 00:28:51.480
 so he bows

00:28:51.480 --> 00:28:51.900
 down to

00:28:51.900 --> 00:28:52.540
 worship Peter

00:28:52.540 --> 00:28:52.860
 and Peter

00:28:52.860 --> 00:28:53.280
 lifts him

00:28:53.280 --> 00:28:53.560
 up saying

00:28:53.560 --> 00:28:54.060
 stand up

00:28:54.060 --> 00:28:54.460
 I too

00:28:54.460 --> 00:28:55.000
 am a man

00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:56.440
 this is

00:28:56.440 --> 00:28:56.860
 something that

00:28:56.860 --> 00:28:58.000
 we take

00:28:58.000 --> 00:28:58.560
 for granted

00:28:58.560 --> 00:28:59.120
 sometimes

00:28:59.120 --> 00:28:59.820
 but the

00:28:59.820 --> 00:29:00.660
 good news

00:29:00.660 --> 00:29:01.120
 of Jesus

00:29:01.120 --> 00:29:01.540
 Christ

00:29:01.540 --> 00:29:02.120
 that we

00:29:02.120 --> 00:29:03.040
 have been

00:29:03.040 --> 00:29:04.040
 entrusted

00:29:04.040 --> 00:29:04.460
 with

00:29:04.460 --> 00:29:05.620
 to share

00:29:05.620 --> 00:29:06.080
 with the

00:29:06.080 --> 00:29:06.420
 nations

00:29:06.420 --> 00:29:07.080
 to share

00:29:07.080 --> 00:29:07.860
 with our

00:29:07.860 --> 00:29:08.300
 neighbor

00:29:08.300 --> 00:29:09.100
 is the

00:29:09.100 --> 00:29:09.700
 message

00:29:09.700 --> 00:29:10.440
 from the

00:29:10.440 --> 00:29:10.880
 king of

00:29:10.880 --> 00:29:11.280
 kings

00:29:11.280 --> 00:29:13.780
 it is the

00:29:13.780 --> 00:29:14.480
 most important

00:29:14.480 --> 00:29:15.000
 message

00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:16.180
 you have

00:29:16.180 --> 00:29:16.980
 never received

00:29:16.980 --> 00:29:17.300
 a more

00:29:17.300 --> 00:29:17.880
 important message

00:29:17.880 --> 00:29:18.420
 you will never

00:29:18.420 --> 00:29:19.100
 be entrusted

00:29:19.099 --> 00:29:20.079
 with a more

00:29:20.079 --> 00:29:21.059
 important message

00:29:21.059 --> 00:29:21.819
 than this

00:29:21.819 --> 00:29:22.579
 1 Peter 1

00:29:22.579 --> 00:29:23.240
 12 says

00:29:23.240 --> 00:29:23.619
 that this

00:29:23.619 --> 00:29:24.259
 good news

00:29:24.259 --> 00:29:24.939
 this message

00:29:24.939 --> 00:29:25.619
 is something

00:29:25.619 --> 00:29:25.939
 that even

00:29:25.939 --> 00:29:26.639
 the angels

00:29:26.639 --> 00:29:27.399
 long to

00:29:27.399 --> 00:29:27.939
 look at

00:29:27.939 --> 00:29:29.519
 that expression

00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:30.619
 describes them

00:29:30.619 --> 00:29:31.319
 bending over

00:29:31.319 --> 00:29:31.939
 to gaze at

00:29:31.939 --> 00:29:32.319
 something that

00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:32.719
 they don't

00:29:32.719 --> 00:29:33.240
 quite have

00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:33.899
 full access

00:29:33.899 --> 00:29:34.240
 to

00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:36.459
 that message

00:29:36.459 --> 00:29:36.879
 that even

00:29:36.879 --> 00:29:37.759
 angels are

00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:38.439
 not fully

00:29:38.439 --> 00:29:39.099
 privy to

00:29:39.099 --> 00:29:40.219
 is given

00:29:40.219 --> 00:29:41.259
 to us

00:29:41.259 --> 00:29:42.819
 entrusted

00:29:42.819 --> 00:29:43.659
 to us

00:29:43.659 --> 00:29:44.579
 to be the

00:29:44.579 --> 00:29:44.980
 stewards

00:29:44.980 --> 00:29:45.359
 and the

00:29:45.359 --> 00:29:45.759
 messenger

00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:46.200
 of it

00:29:46.200 --> 00:29:51.879
 in 2019

00:29:51.879 --> 00:29:52.980
 I saw

00:29:52.980 --> 00:29:54.119
 a British

00:29:54.119 --> 00:29:54.920
 war film

00:29:54.920 --> 00:29:55.259
 entitled

00:29:55.259 --> 00:29:55.859
 1917

00:29:55.859 --> 00:29:56.859
 you guys

00:29:56.859 --> 00:29:57.039
 see

00:29:57.039 --> 00:29:57.579
 some of you

00:29:57.579 --> 00:29:57.779
 guys see

00:29:57.779 --> 00:29:57.980
 that

00:29:57.980 --> 00:29:59.539
 it takes

00:29:59.539 --> 00:29:59.799
 place

00:29:59.799 --> 00:30:00.019
 during

00:30:00.019 --> 00:30:00.379
 World War

00:30:00.379 --> 00:30:00.680
 I

00:30:00.680 --> 00:30:03.119
 I don't

00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:03.440
 see that

00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:03.920
 many movies

00:30:03.920 --> 00:30:04.480
 so you guys

00:30:04.480 --> 00:30:04.920
 probably know

00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:05.379
 all the movies

00:30:05.379 --> 00:30:05.680
 I've seen

00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:07.000
 after the

00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:07.420
 Germans

00:30:07.420 --> 00:30:08.299
 are

00:30:08.299 --> 00:30:09.379
 kind of

00:30:09.379 --> 00:30:10.180
 retreating

00:30:10.180 --> 00:30:11.140
 from the

00:30:11.140 --> 00:30:11.740
 western section

00:30:11.740 --> 00:30:11.940
 of the

00:30:11.940 --> 00:30:12.640
 western front

00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:13.420
 the British

00:30:13.420 --> 00:30:13.980
 army has

00:30:13.980 --> 00:30:14.420
 been ordered

00:30:14.420 --> 00:30:14.900
 to go

00:30:14.900 --> 00:30:15.140
 and

00:30:15.140 --> 00:30:16.460
 continue

00:30:16.460 --> 00:30:16.980
 to press

00:30:16.980 --> 00:30:17.759
 the attack

00:30:17.759 --> 00:30:18.540
 to pursue

00:30:18.540 --> 00:30:19.320
 the retreating

00:30:19.320 --> 00:30:19.880
 German army

00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:20.900
 but the

00:30:20.900 --> 00:30:21.740
 aerial reconnaissance

00:30:21.740 --> 00:30:22.780
 finds that

00:30:22.780 --> 00:30:23.560
 actually the

00:30:23.560 --> 00:30:24.060
 Germans were

00:30:24.060 --> 00:30:24.820
 only feigning

00:30:24.820 --> 00:30:25.300
 retreat

00:30:25.300 --> 00:30:25.820
 they were

00:30:25.820 --> 00:30:26.320
 not actually

00:30:26.320 --> 00:30:26.820
 retreating

00:30:26.820 --> 00:30:27.120
 they were

00:30:27.120 --> 00:30:27.560
 instead

00:30:27.560 --> 00:30:28.380
 creating a

00:30:28.380 --> 00:30:28.880
 new front

00:30:28.880 --> 00:30:29.160
 line

00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:29.740
 and assembling

00:30:29.740 --> 00:30:30.480
 and gathering

00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:31.040
 all their

00:30:31.040 --> 00:30:31.480
 troops

00:30:31.480 --> 00:30:32.160
 and they

00:30:32.160 --> 00:30:32.580
 were just

00:30:32.580 --> 00:30:33.120
 waiting

00:30:33.120 --> 00:30:34.240
 for the

00:30:34.240 --> 00:30:34.700
 British

00:30:34.700 --> 00:30:35.040
 troops

00:30:35.040 --> 00:30:35.540
 to charge

00:30:35.540 --> 00:30:35.900
 at them

00:30:35.900 --> 00:30:36.160
 so that

00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:36.420
 they can

00:30:36.420 --> 00:30:36.660
 just

00:30:36.660 --> 00:30:37.240
 demolish

00:30:37.240 --> 00:30:37.460
 them

00:30:37.460 --> 00:30:37.660
 with

00:30:37.660 --> 00:30:37.920
 heavy

00:30:37.920 --> 00:30:38.300
 artillery

00:30:38.300 --> 00:30:39.100
 they were

00:30:39.100 --> 00:30:39.240
 just

00:30:39.240 --> 00:30:39.540
 waiting

00:30:39.540 --> 00:30:39.920
 on them

00:30:39.920 --> 00:30:40.580
 the

00:30:40.580 --> 00:30:40.820
 aerial

00:30:40.820 --> 00:30:41.280
 reconnaissance

00:30:41.280 --> 00:30:41.680
 finds

00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:42.040
 this out

00:30:42.040 --> 00:30:42.320
 however

00:30:42.320 --> 00:30:43.100
 they can't

00:30:43.100 --> 00:30:44.560
 let the

00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:44.899
 people in

00:30:44.899 --> 00:30:45.139
 the front

00:30:45.139 --> 00:30:45.359
 lines

00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:45.599
 know

00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:46.019
 because the

00:30:46.019 --> 00:30:46.740
 communication line

00:30:46.740 --> 00:30:47.579
 has been broken

00:30:47.579 --> 00:30:48.139
 it's damaged

00:30:48.139 --> 00:30:49.799
 and so what the

00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:50.539
 general does

00:30:50.539 --> 00:30:51.379
 is he appoints

00:30:51.379 --> 00:30:52.779
 two soldiers

00:30:52.779 --> 00:30:53.819
 William Schofield

00:30:53.819 --> 00:30:54.579
 and Tom Blake

00:30:54.579 --> 00:30:56.220
 to relay the order

00:30:56.220 --> 00:30:57.179
 calling off the

00:30:57.179 --> 00:30:57.579
 attack

00:30:57.579 --> 00:30:59.139
 to Colin McKenzie

00:30:59.139 --> 00:31:00.299
 at the front

00:31:00.299 --> 00:31:00.639
 lines

00:31:00.639 --> 00:31:02.539
 this is an urgent

00:31:02.539 --> 00:31:03.299
 message because

00:31:03.299 --> 00:31:04.599
 it could mean

00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:05.759
 the life or death

00:31:05.759 --> 00:31:06.960
 of 1600 men

00:31:06.960 --> 00:31:08.139
 among whom

00:31:08.139 --> 00:31:09.440
 is Tom Blake's

00:31:09.440 --> 00:31:09.799
 brother

00:31:09.799 --> 00:31:11.279
 Joseph Blake

00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:13.660
 the film

00:31:13.660 --> 00:31:14.339
 is shot

00:31:14.339 --> 00:31:14.960
 gorgeously

00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:15.379
 and it

00:31:15.379 --> 00:31:15.960
 seems like

00:31:15.960 --> 00:31:17.039
 one continuous

00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:17.700
 take almost

00:31:17.700 --> 00:31:18.200
 so you're

00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:18.700
 following

00:31:18.700 --> 00:31:19.180
 intimately

00:31:19.180 --> 00:31:20.000
 these two

00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:20.299
 men

00:31:20.299 --> 00:31:21.279
 from the

00:31:21.279 --> 00:31:21.500
 beginning

00:31:21.500 --> 00:31:21.759
 of their

00:31:21.759 --> 00:31:21.920
 journey

00:31:21.920 --> 00:31:22.200
 to the

00:31:22.200 --> 00:31:22.440
 end

00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:23.399
 and as

00:31:23.399 --> 00:31:23.539
 they're

00:31:23.539 --> 00:31:23.839
 going

00:31:23.839 --> 00:31:24.200
 it's a

00:31:24.200 --> 00:31:24.559
 harrowing

00:31:24.559 --> 00:31:25.240
 journey

00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:27.399
 they have

00:31:27.399 --> 00:31:27.940
 to escape

00:31:27.940 --> 00:31:28.279
 from an

00:31:28.279 --> 00:31:28.799
 exploding

00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:29.759
 tripped

00:31:29.759 --> 00:31:30.139
 wire

00:31:30.139 --> 00:31:31.200
 they get

00:31:31.200 --> 00:31:31.700
 damaged

00:31:31.700 --> 00:31:32.200
 their arm

00:31:32.200 --> 00:31:32.859
 gets damaged

00:31:32.859 --> 00:31:33.879
 they are

00:31:33.879 --> 00:31:34.559
 running away

00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:35.359
 from people

00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:36.000
 shooting at

00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:36.240
 them

00:31:36.240 --> 00:31:37.480
 and Tom

00:31:37.480 --> 00:31:39.240
 Blake

00:31:39.240 --> 00:31:40.160
 actually gets

00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:40.839
 stabbed by a

00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:41.459
 German soldier

00:31:41.459 --> 00:31:42.079
 and he

00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:42.699
 dies

00:31:42.699 --> 00:31:43.119
 and they

00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:44.480
 continue to

00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:44.839
 go

00:31:44.839 --> 00:31:46.259
 and more

00:31:46.259 --> 00:31:46.659
 and more

00:31:46.659 --> 00:31:47.419
 bad things

00:31:47.419 --> 00:31:47.819
 happen

00:31:47.819 --> 00:31:50.139
 he has to

00:31:50.139 --> 00:31:50.659
 swim through

00:31:50.659 --> 00:31:51.059
 a river

00:31:51.059 --> 00:31:51.619
 he falls

00:31:51.619 --> 00:31:52.099
 over a

00:31:52.099 --> 00:31:52.619
 waterfall

00:31:52.619 --> 00:31:53.619
 and he gets

00:31:53.619 --> 00:31:54.419
 knocked unconscious

00:31:54.419 --> 00:31:55.199
 at some point

00:31:55.199 --> 00:31:56.579
 and at some

00:31:56.579 --> 00:31:56.839
 point he's

00:31:56.839 --> 00:31:57.419
 tempted to

00:31:57.419 --> 00:31:58.059
 just abandon

00:31:58.059 --> 00:31:58.679
 his mission

00:31:58.679 --> 00:32:00.399
 and stay

00:32:00.399 --> 00:32:00.899
 in hiding

00:32:00.899 --> 00:32:01.279
 with the

00:32:01.279 --> 00:32:02.279
 French woman

00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:02.559
 that he

00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:02.879
 finds

00:32:02.879 --> 00:32:06.459
 but he

00:32:06.459 --> 00:32:07.179
 keeps getting

00:32:07.179 --> 00:32:07.519
 up

00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:08.599
 and he

00:32:08.599 --> 00:32:09.319
 keeps going

00:32:09.319 --> 00:32:11.419
 because

00:32:11.419 --> 00:32:11.859
 even though

00:32:11.859 --> 00:32:12.439
 he's just

00:32:12.439 --> 00:32:12.899
 a lowly

00:32:12.899 --> 00:32:13.240
 soldier

00:32:13.240 --> 00:32:13.500
 really

00:32:13.500 --> 00:32:14.039
 unimportant

00:32:14.039 --> 00:32:14.439
 in the

00:32:14.439 --> 00:32:15.379
 grand scheme

00:32:15.379 --> 00:32:15.859
 of things

00:32:15.859 --> 00:32:16.960
 but because

00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:17.819
 he's carrying

00:32:17.819 --> 00:32:18.740
 an urgent

00:32:18.740 --> 00:32:19.599
 and important

00:32:19.599 --> 00:32:20.419
 message from

00:32:20.419 --> 00:32:21.000
 the general

00:32:21.000 --> 00:32:21.619
 of the army

00:32:21.619 --> 00:32:24.399
 because

00:32:24.399 --> 00:32:25.740
 precious lives

00:32:25.740 --> 00:32:26.419
 are at stake

00:32:26.419 --> 00:32:29.500
 and at the

00:32:29.500 --> 00:32:30.220
 end when he

00:32:30.220 --> 00:32:31.039
 can't reach

00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:33.259
 the colonel

00:32:33.259 --> 00:32:33.740
 at the end

00:32:33.740 --> 00:32:34.220
 in the front

00:32:34.220 --> 00:32:34.859
 lines he

00:32:34.859 --> 00:32:35.759
 climbs up

00:32:35.759 --> 00:32:36.379
 above the

00:32:36.379 --> 00:32:36.759
 trenches

00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:37.779
 and while

00:32:37.779 --> 00:32:38.200
 the enemies

00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:38.779
 are firing

00:32:38.779 --> 00:32:39.059
 at him

00:32:39.059 --> 00:32:39.480
 and runs

00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:39.960
 parallel

00:32:39.960 --> 00:32:40.460
 in order

00:32:40.460 --> 00:32:40.900
 to reach

00:32:40.900 --> 00:32:41.319
 the colonel

00:32:41.319 --> 00:32:42.140
 to relay

00:32:42.140 --> 00:32:42.799
 this news

00:32:42.799 --> 00:32:43.779
 and to his

00:32:43.779 --> 00:32:44.279
 relief he

00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:45.119
 finds that

00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:45.879
 Joseph Blake

00:32:45.879 --> 00:32:46.480
 is alive

00:32:46.480 --> 00:32:53.480
 if that's

00:32:53.480 --> 00:32:53.900
 how

00:32:53.900 --> 00:32:55.819
 a man

00:32:55.819 --> 00:32:56.200
 can be

00:32:56.200 --> 00:32:56.680
 focused

00:32:56.680 --> 00:32:58.579
 on the

00:32:58.579 --> 00:32:58.900
 mission

00:32:58.900 --> 00:33:00.140
 to rescue

00:33:00.140 --> 00:33:01.839
 and save

00:33:01.839 --> 00:33:02.460
 the temporal

00:33:02.460 --> 00:33:02.980
 lives of

00:33:02.980 --> 00:33:03.279
 people

00:33:03.279 --> 00:33:06.299
 how much

00:33:06.299 --> 00:33:06.720
 more

00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:07.899
 should we

00:33:07.899 --> 00:33:10.160
 who carry

00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:10.740
 not the

00:33:10.740 --> 00:33:11.099
 message

00:33:11.099 --> 00:33:11.660
 of a

00:33:11.660 --> 00:33:12.099
 man

00:33:12.099 --> 00:33:13.039
 but the

00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:13.339
 message

00:33:13.339 --> 00:33:13.920
 of God

00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:14.379
 himself

00:33:14.379 --> 00:33:15.059
 the Lord

00:33:15.059 --> 00:33:15.680
 of hosts

00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:16.440
 the Lord

00:33:16.440 --> 00:33:16.700
 of the

00:33:16.700 --> 00:33:17.099
 armies

00:33:17.099 --> 00:33:17.980
 how much

00:33:17.980 --> 00:33:18.220
 more

00:33:18.220 --> 00:33:18.579
 should we

00:33:18.579 --> 00:33:19.139
 be focused

00:33:19.139 --> 00:33:19.940
 on this

00:33:19.940 --> 00:33:20.240
 mission

00:33:20.240 --> 00:33:22.940
 how much

00:33:22.940 --> 00:33:23.480
 more than

00:33:23.480 --> 00:33:24.000
 should we

00:33:24.000 --> 00:33:24.599
 who carry

00:33:24.599 --> 00:33:25.660
 not the

00:33:25.660 --> 00:33:25.980
 message

00:33:25.980 --> 00:33:26.539
 merely of

00:33:26.539 --> 00:33:27.000
 temporal

00:33:27.000 --> 00:33:27.420
 rescue

00:33:27.420 --> 00:33:27.799
 but the

00:33:27.799 --> 00:33:28.099
 message

00:33:28.099 --> 00:33:28.879
 of eternal

00:33:28.879 --> 00:33:29.879
 salvation

00:33:29.879 --> 00:33:31.079
 obey our

 with utmost

00:33:33.040 --> 00:33:34.400
 dedication

00:33:34.400 --> 00:33:38.400
 God

00:33:38.400 --> 00:33:38.880
 sends

00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:39.120
 his

 of the

00:33:59.960 --> 00:34:00.600
 population

00:34:00.599 --> 00:34:01.559
 approximately

00:34:01.559 --> 00:34:02.359
 2 billion

00:34:02.359 --> 00:34:02.939
 people

00:34:02.939 --> 00:34:04.039
 have not

00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:04.480
 had the

 gospel

00:34:04.859 --> 00:34:05.339
 presented

00:34:05.339 --> 00:34:05.740

00:34:05.740 --> 00:34:05.939
 in a

00:34:05.939 --> 00:34:06.139
 way

00:34:06.139 --> 00:34:06.539
 that they

00:34:06.539 --> 00:34:06.719
 can

00:34:06.719 --> 00:34:07.259
 appreciably

00:34:07.259 --> 00:34:07.879
 understand

00:34:07.879 --> 00:34:08.400
 and respond

00:34:13.360 --> 00:34:13.819

 that there

00:34:14.079 --> 00:34:14.159
 are

00:34:17.799 --> 00:34:18.599
 meaning that

 these people

00:34:19.119 --> 00:34:19.579

00:34:21.139 --> 00:34:21.819
 them to share

 the gospel

00:34:22.279 --> 00:34:22.579

00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:27.380
 meaning they

00:34:27.380 --> 00:34:27.719
 don't even

00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:28.400
 have a

00:34:29.059 --> 00:34:29.519

 church

00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:34.320
 Jesus said

 in Matthew

00:34:34.699 --> 00:34:35.699
 24,14

00:34:35.699 --> 00:34:36.039
 and this

00:34:36.039 --> 00:34:36.519
 gospel of

00:34:36.519 --> 00:34:36.820
 the kingdom

00:34:36.820 --> 00:34:37.179
 will be

00:34:38.860 --> 00:34:39.400
 a testimony

00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:40.059
 to all

00:34:40.059 --> 00:34:40.599
 nations

00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:41.659
 and then

00:34:41.659 --> 00:34:42.300
 the end

00:34:42.300 --> 00:34:42.840
 will come

00:34:42.840 --> 00:34:45.440
 we are

00:34:45.440 --> 00:34:45.900
 living in

00:34:45.900 --> 00:34:46.199
 the end

00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:46.880
 time since

00:34:46.880 --> 00:34:47.280
 the first

00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:47.679
 coming of

00:34:47.679 --> 00:34:47.960
 Jesus

00:34:47.960 --> 00:34:49.019
 but the

00:34:49.019 --> 00:34:49.519
 end

00:34:49.519 --> 00:34:50.199
 Jesus'

00:34:50.400 --> 00:34:50.679
 second

00:34:50.679 --> 00:34:51.119
 coming

00:34:51.119 --> 00:34:51.780
 has not

00:34:51.780 --> 00:34:52.059
 yet

00:34:52.059 --> 00:34:52.400
 come

00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:53.260
 and that

00:34:53.260 --> 00:34:53.940
 means our

00:34:53.940 --> 00:34:54.559
 mission

00:34:54.559 --> 00:34:55.340
 that our

00:34:55.340 --> 00:34:55.940
 Lord Jesus

00:34:55.940 --> 00:34:56.539
 has given

00:34:56.539 --> 00:34:57.599
 us is not

00:34:57.599 --> 00:34:58.239
 yet

00:34:58.239 --> 00:34:58.980
 finished

00:34:58.980 --> 00:35:04.519
 sometimes

00:35:04.519 --> 00:35:05.059
 I think

00:35:05.059 --> 00:35:05.539
 we can

00:35:05.539 --> 00:35:06.619
 live like

00:35:06.619 --> 00:35:07.159
 we've already

00:35:07.159 --> 00:35:07.740
 finished the

00:35:07.740 --> 00:35:08.099
 race and

00:35:08.099 --> 00:35:08.420
 we're just

00:35:08.420 --> 00:35:08.960
 waiting for

00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:09.420
 the award

00:35:09.420 --> 00:35:09.880
 ceremony

00:35:09.880 --> 00:35:13.159
 if you're

00:35:13.159 --> 00:35:13.719
 alive your

00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:14.320
 race is not

00:35:14.320 --> 00:35:14.679
 over

00:35:14.679 --> 00:35:16.920
 the end is

00:35:16.920 --> 00:35:17.519
 not here

00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:18.400
 that means our

00:35:18.400 --> 00:35:20.159
 task is not

00:35:20.159 --> 00:35:20.679
 finished

00:35:20.679 --> 00:35:24.119
 there are

00:35:24.119 --> 00:35:24.820
 people like

00:35:24.820 --> 00:35:25.579
 Cornelius

00:35:25.579 --> 00:35:26.940
 among all

00:35:26.940 --> 00:35:27.519
 the nations

00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:27.880
 who are

00:35:27.880 --> 00:35:28.679
 waiting for

00:35:28.679 --> 00:35:29.139
 someone to

00:35:29.139 --> 00:35:29.840
 proclaim the

00:35:29.840 --> 00:35:30.440
 good news

00:35:30.440 --> 00:35:30.960
 to them

00:35:30.960 --> 00:35:32.759
 some of

00:35:32.759 --> 00:35:33.119
 them may

00:35:33.119 --> 00:35:33.679
 already have

00:35:33.679 --> 00:35:34.000
 seen a

00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:34.599
 vision from

00:35:34.599 --> 00:35:35.440
 God to

00:35:35.440 --> 00:35:36.119
 prepare them

00:35:36.119 --> 00:35:36.579
 and may

00:35:36.579 --> 00:35:37.440
 and God

00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:38.039
 may send

00:35:38.039 --> 00:35:38.699
 them to

00:35:38.699 --> 00:35:39.139
 you

00:35:39.139 --> 00:35:41.559
 to open

00:35:41.559 --> 00:35:42.079
 up God's

00:35:42.079 --> 00:35:42.420
 word to

00:35:42.420 --> 00:35:42.639
 them

00:35:42.639 --> 00:35:44.199
 to preach

00:35:44.199 --> 00:35:45.039
 Jesus to

00:35:45.039 --> 00:35:45.299
 them

00:35:45.300 --> 00:35:48.180
 so let's

00:35:48.180 --> 00:35:49.120
 go obediently

00:35:49.120 --> 00:35:50.039
 and courageously

00:35:50.039 --> 00:35:50.660
 and humbly

00:35:50.660 --> 00:35:51.019
 to them

00:35:51.019 --> 00:35:51.500
 as Peter

00:35:51.500 --> 00:35:52.000
 did as

00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:53.420
 errand runners

00:35:53.420 --> 00:35:54.280
 as servants

00:35:54.280 --> 00:35:55.560
 as messengers

00:35:55.560 --> 00:35:59.240
 that's my

00:35:59.240 --> 00:35:59.680
 first and

00:35:59.680 --> 00:36:00.300
 longest point

00:36:00.300 --> 00:36:01.160
 God sends

00:36:01.160 --> 00:36:02.019
 his witnesses

00:36:02.019 --> 00:36:02.580
 to all

00:36:02.580 --> 00:36:03.019
 nations

00:36:03.019 --> 00:36:05.000
 my second

00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:05.340
 point is

00:36:05.340 --> 00:36:05.620
 that God

00:36:05.620 --> 00:36:06.000
 grants

00:36:06.000 --> 00:36:06.480
 forgiveness

00:36:06.480 --> 00:36:07.039
 of sins

00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:07.560
 to all

00:36:07.560 --> 00:36:07.760
 who

00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:08.220
 believe

00:36:08.220 --> 00:36:08.640
 Cornelius

00:36:08.640 --> 00:36:09.080
 says to

00:36:09.080 --> 00:36:09.440
 Peter

00:36:09.440 --> 00:36:09.780
 in verse

00:36:09.780 --> 00:36:10.280
 33

00:36:10.280 --> 00:36:11.039
 now

00:36:11.039 --> 00:36:11.420
 therefore

00:36:11.420 --> 00:36:11.860
 we are

00:36:11.860 --> 00:36:12.120
 all

00:36:12.120 --> 00:36:12.420
 here

00:36:12.420 --> 00:36:12.660
 in the

00:36:12.660 --> 00:36:12.900
 presence

00:36:12.900 --> 00:36:13.340
 of God

00:36:13.340 --> 00:36:13.740
 to hear

00:36:13.740 --> 00:36:14.140
 all that

00:36:14.140 --> 00:36:14.420
 you have

00:36:14.420 --> 00:36:14.600
 been

00:36:14.600 --> 00:36:14.940
 commanded

00:36:14.940 --> 00:36:15.380
 by the

00:36:15.380 --> 00:36:15.640
 Lord

00:36:15.640 --> 00:36:17.180
 after this

00:36:17.180 --> 00:36:17.680
 invitation

00:36:17.680 --> 00:36:18.180
 Peter

00:36:18.180 --> 00:36:19.180
 begins to

00:36:19.180 --> 00:36:19.539
 preach in

00:36:19.539 --> 00:36:19.740
 verses

00:36:19.740 --> 00:36:20.200
 34

00:36:20.200 --> 00:36:20.900
 to 35

00:36:20.900 --> 00:36:22.140
 truly I

00:36:22.140 --> 00:36:22.620
 understand

00:36:22.620 --> 00:36:23.039
 that God

00:36:23.039 --> 00:36:23.620
 shows no

00:36:23.620 --> 00:36:24.480
 partiality

00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:24.860
 but in

00:36:24.860 --> 00:36:25.920
 every nation

00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:27.200
 anyone who

00:36:27.200 --> 00:36:28.039
 fears him

00:36:28.039 --> 00:36:28.400
 and does

00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:28.780
 what is

00:36:28.780 --> 00:36:29.180
 right is

00:36:29.180 --> 00:36:29.720
 acceptable

00:36:29.720 --> 00:36:30.300
 to him

00:36:30.300 --> 00:36:31.920
 he reiterates

00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:32.400
 this idea

00:36:32.400 --> 00:36:32.720
 in verse

00:36:32.720 --> 00:36:33.180
 43

00:36:33.180 --> 00:36:34.200
 everyone who

00:36:34.200 --> 00:36:34.780
 believes

00:36:34.780 --> 00:36:35.700
 in him

00:36:35.700 --> 00:36:36.300
 in Jesus

00:36:36.300 --> 00:36:36.860
 receives

00:36:36.860 --> 00:36:37.260
 forgiveness

00:36:37.260 --> 00:36:37.760
 of sin

00:36:37.760 --> 00:36:38.280
 through his

00:36:38.280 --> 00:36:38.640
 name

00:36:38.640 --> 00:36:39.420
 there is

00:36:39.420 --> 00:36:39.980
 no longer

00:36:39.980 --> 00:36:40.360
 any

00:36:40.360 --> 00:36:40.940
 distinction

00:36:40.940 --> 00:36:41.300
 between

00:36:41.300 --> 00:36:41.600
 Jew

00:36:41.600 --> 00:36:41.800
 and

00:36:41.800 --> 00:36:42.480
 Gentile

00:36:42.480 --> 00:36:43.980
 in the

00:36:43.980 --> 00:36:44.400
 Old Testament

00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:44.699
 times

00:36:44.699 --> 00:36:44.960
 God

00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:45.800
 had consecrated

00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:46.300
 the Jews

00:36:46.300 --> 00:36:46.800
 as his

00:36:46.800 --> 00:36:47.059
 special

00:36:47.059 --> 00:36:47.480
 people

00:36:47.480 --> 00:36:47.780
 because

00:36:47.780 --> 00:36:48.199
 he had

00:36:48.199 --> 00:36:48.619
 chosen

00:36:48.619 --> 00:36:50.300
 to send

00:36:50.300 --> 00:36:50.559
 his

00:36:50.559 --> 00:36:51.119
 Messiah

00:36:51.119 --> 00:36:51.840
 the Savior

00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:53.420
 as a Jew

00:36:53.420 --> 00:36:54.000
 from among

00:36:54.000 --> 00:36:54.340
 the Jewish

00:36:54.340 --> 00:36:54.719
 people

00:36:54.719 --> 00:36:55.099
 Jesus

00:36:55.099 --> 00:36:55.579
 Christ

00:36:55.579 --> 00:36:57.159
 in order

00:36:57.159 --> 00:36:57.980
 to preserve

00:36:57.980 --> 00:36:59.240
 that line

00:36:59.240 --> 00:37:00.199
 from Abraham

00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:01.079
 to David

00:37:01.079 --> 00:37:01.780
 in order for

00:37:01.780 --> 00:37:02.240
 that message

00:37:02.240 --> 00:37:02.980
 of salvation

00:37:02.980 --> 00:37:04.099
 that faith

00:37:04.099 --> 00:37:04.519
 and relations

00:37:04.519 --> 00:37:04.960
 with God

00:37:04.960 --> 00:37:05.659
 to be preserved

00:37:05.659 --> 00:37:06.400
 it was important

00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:06.940
 for in the

00:37:06.940 --> 00:37:07.320
 Old Testament

00:37:07.320 --> 00:37:07.960
 God's people

00:37:07.960 --> 00:37:09.159
 not to mix

00:37:09.159 --> 00:37:09.519
 with the

00:37:09.519 --> 00:37:09.840
 nations

00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:10.639
 not to

00:37:10.639 --> 00:37:11.099
 intermarry

00:37:11.099 --> 00:37:11.400
 with the

00:37:11.400 --> 00:37:11.679
 nations

00:37:11.679 --> 00:37:12.279
 lest their

00:37:12.279 --> 00:37:12.679
 faith

00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:13.379
 be diluted

00:37:13.379 --> 00:37:18.299
 but that

00:37:18.299 --> 00:37:18.980
 the purpose

00:37:18.980 --> 00:37:19.440
 the reason

00:37:19.440 --> 00:37:19.879
 for God

00:37:19.879 --> 00:37:20.119
 setting

00:37:20.119 --> 00:37:20.359
 apart

00:37:20.359 --> 00:37:20.940
 of Israel

00:37:20.940 --> 00:37:21.659
 was so

00:37:21.659 --> 00:37:22.000
 that

00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:24.019
 from Israel

00:37:24.019 --> 00:37:24.619
 from the

00:37:24.619 --> 00:37:25.059
 Jews

00:37:25.059 --> 00:37:25.859
 might come

00:37:25.859 --> 00:37:26.460
 the Savior

00:37:26.460 --> 00:37:26.859
 who will

00:37:26.859 --> 00:37:27.219
 save

00:37:27.219 --> 00:37:27.759
 all

00:37:27.759 --> 00:37:28.559
 the nations

00:37:28.559 --> 00:37:30.259
 that has

00:37:30.259 --> 00:37:30.639
 been the

00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:30.899
 plan

00:37:30.899 --> 00:37:31.239
 from the

00:37:31.239 --> 00:37:31.559
 beginning

00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:37.799
 whether

00:37:37.799 --> 00:37:38.219
 you're in

00:37:38.219 --> 00:37:38.659
 America

00:37:38.659 --> 00:37:39.119
 Asia

00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:39.839
 or Africa

00:37:39.840 --> 00:37:40.039
 Gentile

00:37:40.039 --> 00:37:41.420
 you need

 come

00:45:20.320 --> 00:45:20.480
 to

 Holy

00:45:25.559 --> 00:45:25.920
 Spirit

00:45:25.920 --> 00:45:30.579
 the

00:45:30.579 --> 00:45:30.900
 normal

00:45:30.900 --> 00:45:31.280
 order

00:45:31.280 --> 00:45:31.460
 that

00:45:31.460 --> 00:45:31.559
 we

00:45:31.559 --> 00:45:31.760
 saw

00:45:31.760 --> 00:45:31.880
 in

 Acts

00:45:32.599 --> 00:45:32.780
 is

00:45:32.780 --> 00:45:32.880
 you

00:45:32.880 --> 00:45:33.139
 first

00:45:33.139 --> 00:45:33.539
 repent

00:45:33.539 --> 00:45:33.760
 and

00:45:33.760 --> 00:45:34.000
 believe

 and

00:45:34.139 --> 00:45:34.240
 are

00:45:34.240 --> 00:45:34.500
 baptized

00:45:34.500 --> 00:45:34.740
 and

00:45:34.740 --> 00:45:34.900
 then

00:45:34.900 --> 00:45:35.000
 you

00:45:35.000 --> 00:45:35.240
 receive

00:45:35.240 --> 00:45:35.360
 the

00:45:35.360 --> 00:45:35.500
 Holy

00:45:35.500 --> 00:45:35.800
 Spirit

00:45:35.800 --> 00:45:36.480
 but

00:45:36.480 --> 00:45:36.599
 the

00:45:36.599 --> 00:45:36.780
 order

00:45:36.780 --> 00:45:36.920
 is

00:45:36.920 --> 00:45:37.000
 a

00:45:37.000 --> 00:45:37.099
 little

00:45:37.099 --> 00:45:37.340
 mixed

00:45:37.340 --> 00:45:37.559
 up

00:45:37.559 --> 00:45:37.820
 here

00:45:37.820 --> 00:45:39.539
 which

00:45:39.539 --> 00:45:39.820
 shows

00:45:39.820 --> 00:45:40.059
 that

00:45:40.059 --> 00:45:40.280
 that

00:45:40.280 --> 00:45:40.539
 order

00:45:40.539 --> 00:45:40.740
 is

00:45:40.740 --> 00:45:41.200
 normative

00:45:41.200 --> 00:45:41.420
 but

00:45:41.420 --> 00:45:41.619
 not

00:45:41.619 --> 00:45:42.240
 invariable

00:45:42.240 --> 00:45:44.139
 and

00:45:44.139 --> 00:45:44.360
 it's

00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:44.900
 the

00:45:44.900 --> 00:45:45.139
 gift

00:45:45.139 --> 00:45:45.260
 of

00:45:45.260 --> 00:45:45.360
 the

00:45:45.360 --> 00:45:45.519
 Holy

00:45:45.519 --> 00:45:45.820
 Spirit

00:45:45.820 --> 00:45:46.019
 that

00:45:46.019 --> 00:45:46.800
 decisively

00:45:46.800 --> 00:45:47.960
 marks

00:45:47.960 --> 00:45:48.300
 a

00:45:48.300 --> 00:45:48.500
 true

00:45:48.500 --> 00:45:48.920
 believer

00:45:48.920 --> 00:45:50.680
 in

00:45:50.680 --> 00:45:51.159
 Ezekiel

00:45:51.159 --> 00:45:51.760
 36

00:45:51.760 --> 00:45:52.000
 there

00:45:52.000 --> 00:45:52.099
 was

00:45:52.099 --> 00:45:52.220
 a

00:45:52.220 --> 00:45:52.659
 prophecy

00:45:52.659 --> 00:45:53.099
 that

00:45:53.099 --> 00:45:53.659
 God

00:45:53.659 --> 00:45:53.800
 will

00:45:53.800 --> 00:45:54.019
 put

00:45:54.019 --> 00:45:54.220
 a

00:45:54.220 --> 00:45:54.460
 new

00:45:55.920 --> 00:45:56.579
 Spirit

00:45:56.579 --> 00:45:56.960
 upon

00:45:56.960 --> 00:45:57.220
 us

00:45:57.220 --> 00:45:57.559
 and

00:45:57.559 --> 00:45:57.619
 he

00:45:57.619 --> 00:45:57.760
 will

00:45:57.760 --> 00:45:58.200
 cleanse

00:45:58.200 --> 00:45:58.420
 us

00:45:58.420 --> 00:45:58.579
 by

00:45:58.579 --> 00:45:59.139
 sprinkling

00:45:59.139 --> 00:46:00.059
 us

00:46:00.059 --> 00:46:00.200
 with

00:46:00.200 --> 00:46:00.320
 the

00:46:00.320 --> 00:46:00.460
 Holy

00:46:00.460 --> 00:46:00.800
 Spirit

00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:02.599
 Peter's

00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:02.900
 logic

00:46:02.900 --> 00:46:03.139
 is

00:46:03.139 --> 00:46:03.420
 this

00:46:03.420 --> 00:46:03.680
 if

00:46:03.680 --> 00:46:03.880
 the

00:46:03.880 --> 00:46:04.420
 Gentiles

00:46:04.420 --> 00:46:04.619
 have

00:46:04.619 --> 00:46:05.119
 received

00:46:05.119 --> 00:46:05.320
 the

00:46:05.320 --> 00:46:05.559
 gift

00:46:05.559 --> 00:46:05.680
 of

00:46:05.680 --> 00:46:05.780
 the

00:46:05.780 --> 00:46:05.960
 Holy

00:46:05.960 --> 00:46:06.280
 Spirit

00:46:06.280 --> 00:46:06.559
 that

00:46:06.559 --> 00:46:07.019
 means

00:46:07.019 --> 00:46:07.420
 that

00:46:07.420 --> 00:46:07.740
 according

00:46:07.740 --> 00:46:07.860
 to

00:46:07.860 --> 00:46:08.039
 this

00:46:08.039 --> 00:46:08.519
 prophecy

00:46:08.519 --> 00:46:08.780
 their

00:46:08.780 --> 00:46:09.340
 hearts

00:46:09.340 --> 00:46:09.820
 are

00:46:09.820 --> 00:46:10.260
 already

00:46:10.260 --> 00:46:11.380
 cleansed

00:46:11.380 --> 00:46:11.760
 how

00:46:11.760 --> 00:46:12.039
 then

00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:12.340
 can

00:46:12.340 --> 00:46:12.940
 Peter

00:46:12.940 --> 00:46:13.760
 withhold

00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:14.119
 from

00:46:14.119 --> 00:46:14.320
 them

00:46:14.320 --> 00:46:14.500
 the

00:46:14.500 --> 00:46:14.720
 rite

00:46:14.720 --> 00:46:14.880
 of

00:46:14.880 --> 00:46:15.340
 baptism

00:46:15.340 --> 00:46:16.039
 which

00:46:16.039 --> 00:46:16.639
 signifies

00:46:16.639 --> 00:46:16.820
 the

00:46:16.820 --> 00:46:17.139
 cleansing

00:46:17.139 --> 00:46:17.460
 that

00:46:17.460 --> 00:46:17.639
 they

00:46:17.639 --> 00:46:17.860
 have

00:46:17.860 --> 00:46:18.320
 already

00:46:18.320 --> 00:46:18.920
 received

00:46:18.920 --> 00:46:19.539
 by

00:46:19.539 --> 00:46:19.639
 the

00:46:31.279 --> 00:46:31.779
 without

00:46:31.779 --> 00:46:32.279
 distinction

 is

00:46:35.039 --> 00:46:35.219
 this

00:46:35.219 --> 00:46:35.440
 God

00:46:35.440 --> 00:46:35.980
 receives

00:48:52.599 --> 00:48:52.960
 happily

00:48:52.960 --> 00:48:53.579
 associating

00:48:54.500 --> 00:48:54.699
 then

00:48:54.699 --> 00:48:54.960
 when

 some

00:48:55.300 --> 00:48:55.639
 people

00:48:55.639 --> 00:48:56.019
 came

00:48:56.019 --> 00:48:56.219
 who

00:48:56.219 --> 00:48:56.300
 were

00:48:56.300 --> 00:48:56.619
 members

00:48:56.619 --> 00:48:56.800
 of

00:48:57.960 --> 00:48:58.619
 out

00:48:58.619 --> 00:48:58.800
 of

00:48:58.800 --> 00:48:59.079
 fear

00:48:59.079 --> 00:48:59.280
 of

00:49:03.320 --> 00:49:03.900
 rebuked

00:49:03.900 --> 00:49:04.139

 he

00:49:05.260 --> 00:49:05.680
 believed

 that

00:49:05.880 --> 00:49:06.380
 Peter's

00:49:06.380 --> 00:49:06.880
 conduct

00:49:06.880 --> 00:49:07.240
 was

00:49:07.240 --> 00:49:07.660
 not

 step

00:49:08.539 --> 00:49:08.940
 with

 the

00:49:12.280 --> 00:49:12.420
 is

00:49:12.420 --> 00:49:12.960
 possible

00:49:12.960 --> 00:49:13.220
 to

00:49:13.220 --> 00:49:13.579
 believe

00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:15.539

00:49:15.539 --> 00:49:15.700
 then

00:49:15.700 --> 00:49:15.860
 to

00:49:15.860 --> 00:49:16.320
 deny

00:49:18.260 --> 00:49:18.860
 in
