00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.260
 I believe in the prayers of God's people.

00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:09.740
 I don't know that I was that succinct 30 years ago,

00:00:09.740 --> 00:00:10.359
!

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:31.899
 I was a very poor decision to even ask me.

00:00:33.899 --> 00:00:36.859
 But I remember as I deliberated on that question,

00:00:37.060 --> 00:00:40.320
 one of the things that was a clincher for me

00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:42.340
 as I debated the question was this,

00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:45.480
 who will pray for me?

00:00:47.240 --> 00:00:53.140
 I couldn't imagine leaving people that I knew prayed for me.

00:00:56.480 --> 00:00:57.620
 So here I am.

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:04.540
 Doing what I have done from month to month and week to week,

00:01:04.620 --> 00:01:11.260
 asking you to pray and having confidence in the power of the Word of God

00:01:11.260 --> 00:01:15.879
 to make a difference in your lives.

00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:24.640
 Turn your Bibles to Matthew 26, verse 14.

00:01:26.299 --> 00:01:27.500
 Let me read to you.

00:01:27.500 --> 00:01:30.920
 Matthew 26, verse 14.

00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:37.040
 Then one of the twelve, whose name was Judas Iscariot,

00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:39.740
 went to the chief priests and said,

00:01:40.299 --> 00:01:42.480
 What will you give me if I deliver him over to you?

00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:44.519
 And they paid him 30 pieces of silver,

00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:48.520
 and from that moment he sought an opportunity to betray him.

00:01:50.740 --> 00:01:52.939
 Now on the first day of unleavened bread,

00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:55.219
 the disciples came to Jesus, saying,

00:01:55.219 --> 00:01:58.140
 Where will you have us prepare for you to eat the Passover?

00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:03.379
 He said, Go into the city to a certain man and say to him,

00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:05.159
 The teacher says, My time is at hand,

00:02:05.299 --> 00:02:08.240
 and I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.

00:02:09.699 --> 00:02:12.659
 And the disciples did as Jesus had directed them,

00:02:12.699 --> 00:02:13.879
 and they prepared the Passover.

00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:18.319
 When it was evening, he reclined at table with the twelve,

00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:21.280
 and as they were eating, he said,

00:02:21.359 --> 00:02:25.280
 Truly I say to you, one of you will betray me.

00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:28.340
 And they were very sorrowful,

00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:31.739
 and began to say to him, one after another,

00:02:32.180 --> 00:02:34.280
 Is it I, Lord?

00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:40.599
 Let's pray.

00:02:44.379 --> 00:02:55.659
 Father, for us, prayer is a recurring declaration of your sufficiency

00:02:55.659 --> 00:02:57.580
 and your goodness in our dependency.

00:02:57.580 --> 00:03:04.800
 And we ask that your spirit would quicken our hearts

00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:09.020
 to behold wondrous truths in your word,

00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:13.480
 and that through the enabling of the Spirit of God,

00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:19.220
 that we, beholding as in a mirror the face and truth

00:03:19.220 --> 00:03:23.340
 of our Lord Jesus Christ, would be affected by that,

00:03:23.420 --> 00:03:25.580
 and we would grow to be more like him.

00:03:25.580 --> 00:03:28.719
 And that those who are here today,

00:03:29.320 --> 00:03:32.240
 that do not know the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:03:32.340 --> 00:03:33.680
 would be drawn to the cross

00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:37.740
 and recognize the darkness of their soul

00:03:37.740 --> 00:03:41.480
 and their complete inability to save themselves,

00:03:41.920 --> 00:03:44.200
 and that they would cry out upon the Lord Jesus,

00:03:44.540 --> 00:03:46.080
 in whom alone is salvation.

00:03:47.620 --> 00:03:49.620
 And we ask this in Jesus' name.

00:03:50.780 --> 00:03:51.120
 Amen.

00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:51.260
 Amen.

00:03:51.259 --> 00:03:57.599
 If you were to ask me to explain in a single sentence

00:03:57.599 --> 00:03:59.620
 what really the purpose of preaching is,

00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:03.159
 and I'd confess that on various days I may say it

00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:05.519
 with a slight different perspective,

00:04:05.699 --> 00:04:09.319
 I would say fundamentally that at the heart of preaching is this goal,

00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:12.259
 preaching aims to make much of Jesus.

00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:16.120
 Underneath the little glass top here,

00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:18.180
 there's a little note that I have to myself

00:04:18.180 --> 00:04:21.379
 that has often reminded me when I stand here

00:04:21.379 --> 00:04:24.860
 with the responsibility of being a messenger of the Lord of hosts,

00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:25.180
 it says,

00:04:25.660 --> 00:04:28.060
 how does this sermon testify to Christ?

00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.579
 It is a summary of John chapter 5, verse 39,

00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:36.480
 where Jesus, when he was identifying the issue of his person

00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:38.240
 and his work, he said,

00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:39.220
 listen, at the heart,

00:04:39.459 --> 00:04:41.300
 the Scriptures bear witness to me.

00:04:41.300 --> 00:04:45.900
 And so when a man stands before you,

00:04:47.020 --> 00:04:50.360
 whether it is Pastor Shearer or Tim Knoyer,

00:04:50.960 --> 00:04:52.199
 the truth of the matter is,

00:04:52.220 --> 00:04:54.379
 as we read the same book, we love the same Lord,

00:04:54.540 --> 00:04:56.600
 and our task is fundamentally the same.

00:04:56.900 --> 00:04:58.100
 It is to make much of Jesus.

00:05:01.160 --> 00:05:02.620
 And so here we are,

00:05:03.080 --> 00:05:06.580
 just in front of Resurrection Sunday,

00:05:06.939 --> 00:05:08.660
 and we're having the Lord's table,

00:05:08.660 --> 00:05:10.460
 and as we gather together,

00:05:10.780 --> 00:05:12.680
 and as I've been praying and thinking about this,

00:05:12.780 --> 00:05:13.480
 actually, if you would say,

00:05:13.500 --> 00:05:14.300
 how many of you remember

00:05:14.300 --> 00:05:19.220
 what Last Communion Service's text was?

00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:20.240
 Does anybody remember here?

00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:27.040
 It was Matthew chapter 26,

00:05:28.100 --> 00:05:30.600
 and when he had broken the bread,

00:05:30.700 --> 00:05:32.220
 he gave it to the disciples and said,

00:05:32.460 --> 00:05:33.800
 take this, eat, this is my body,

00:05:33.980 --> 00:05:34.780
 and he took the cup,

00:05:34.860 --> 00:05:35.540
 and when he'd given,

00:05:36.180 --> 00:05:36.780
 do you remember now?

00:05:36.779 --> 00:05:38.439
 When he'd given thanks.

00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:41.000
 We're backing up a little bit,

00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:42.779
 and I want you to ponder with me,

00:05:42.859 --> 00:05:43.599
 just for a moment,

00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:47.459
 the unbelievable picture

00:05:47.459 --> 00:05:49.439
 of what we find here,

00:05:50.219 --> 00:05:54.019
 and its testimony to the love of Christ for us.

00:05:56.439 --> 00:05:57.719
 We're going to look at a passage

00:05:57.719 --> 00:06:01.859
 that really displays and brings to forefront

00:06:01.860 --> 00:06:06.439
 an unbelievable and a striking picture

00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:08.560
 of the hearts of mankind,

00:06:09.060 --> 00:06:10.840
 and including mine and yours,

00:06:11.580 --> 00:06:13.879
 and the love of Christ,

00:06:13.980 --> 00:06:15.980
 which, as it says in Ephesians,

00:06:16.100 --> 00:06:19.340
 transcends and surpasses what we can imagine.

00:06:20.580 --> 00:06:22.139
 So as we step into this verse,

00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:23.300
 let's begin, first of all,

00:06:23.340 --> 00:06:26.199
 by recognizing that what we're going to read here

00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:28.520
 in this passage is an indication

00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.299
 of the most vile betrayal of all time.

00:06:34.180 --> 00:06:35.439
 As you look at the passage,

00:06:35.579 --> 00:06:37.740
 we take up the text there in verse 14,

00:06:37.819 --> 00:06:39.519
 and we find that Judas Iscariot

00:06:40.159 --> 00:06:42.740
 is offering to the chief priests

00:06:42.740 --> 00:06:45.439
 and the leadership of the Jews

00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:48.639
 an opportunity to betray

00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:51.939
 and ultimately bring about the death of the Savior.

00:06:51.939 --> 00:06:55.480
 The other Gospels help us understand

00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:58.600
 that the hatred that the Jews had for Jesus

00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:00.519
 had reached this fever pitch

00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:02.500
 that they wanted to do everything they could

00:07:02.500 --> 00:07:03.899
 to destroy Him,

00:07:04.139 --> 00:07:06.019
 and yet there was this tension

00:07:06.019 --> 00:07:07.319
 and this uncertainty.

00:07:08.060 --> 00:07:10.980
 They were afraid that they couldn't pull it off

00:07:10.980 --> 00:07:14.060
 because the crowds thought very much of Jesus,

00:07:14.300 --> 00:07:16.519
 and He had done so much for so many people

00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:19.360
 that there was a real hesitancy on their part

00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:20.620
 to do it publicly.

00:07:21.939 --> 00:07:25.300
 And so they, seeking a way,

00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:28.420
 and Judas evidently aware of this,

00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:30.719
 I mean, it must have been a buzz going around,

00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:32.600
 hey, listen, does anybody know how to catch them privately

00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:33.279
 and cause problems?

00:07:33.500 --> 00:07:34.500
 And here's Judas.

00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:36.040
 He knew their hatred.

00:07:36.980 --> 00:07:38.519
 He knew their hesitancy,

00:07:38.620 --> 00:07:40.220
 and so he comes to them privately,

00:07:40.220 --> 00:07:41.939
 and he says, listen, I'll do it.

00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:43.379
 I'll do it.

00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:46.139
 And I want you to stop and recognize

00:07:46.139 --> 00:07:47.860
 that here was a disciple,

00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:48.879
 one of the 12,

00:07:49.279 --> 00:07:51.500
 that Jesus had chosen to walk with him,

00:07:51.500 --> 00:07:55.620
 and observe every bit of his ministry and his heart.

00:07:58.620 --> 00:08:02.779
 It was one of those 12 that was going to willingly betray Jesus

00:08:02.779 --> 00:08:05.459
 and lead ultimately to his death.

00:08:05.459 --> 00:08:10.120
 You know, when we do something in ignorance

00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:13.120
 and we do something without a full knowledge

00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:14.399
 of what is taking place,

00:08:14.439 --> 00:08:17.379
 in some sense what we do is less offensive

00:08:17.379 --> 00:08:18.879
 than what we do intentionally

00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:21.500
 and against the grain of the reality

00:08:21.500 --> 00:08:22.519
 of what we've experienced.

00:08:22.740 --> 00:08:24.500
 Remember when Jesus said,

00:08:24.979 --> 00:08:26.319
 woe to you, Jehorazin,

00:08:26.459 --> 00:08:27.779
 woe to you, Bethsaida,

00:08:27.779 --> 00:08:32.360
 because if the miracles that have been done in your presence

00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:34.339
 had been done in Tyre and Sidon,

00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:35.279
 they'd still exist.

00:08:36.379 --> 00:08:38.000
 The point he was making is that

00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.399
 unto whom much is given,

00:08:39.740 --> 00:08:39.939
 what?

00:08:40.899 --> 00:08:42.159
 Much is required.

00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:45.019
 There is an amplification

00:08:45.019 --> 00:08:47.579
 of the consequence of sin

00:08:47.579 --> 00:08:50.839
 proportionate to the blessing that we have received.

00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:51.879
 And here was Judas

00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:54.500
 against the backdrop

00:08:54.500 --> 00:08:56.899
 of all that he had experienced and seen,

00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:00.019
 willingly setting the plate

00:09:00.019 --> 00:09:02.399
 for the betrayal of Christ.

00:09:03.259 --> 00:09:05.060
 He was doing it against the background

00:09:05.060 --> 00:09:06.320
 of a close relationship.

00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:08.759
 He'd been one of the 12.

00:09:09.680 --> 00:09:11.740
 He had enjoyed three full years

00:09:11.740 --> 00:09:13.860
 of the presence and the love of Christ.

00:09:14.280 --> 00:09:16.879
 One of the things that we read in the book of John

00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:18.280
 as we were working our way through it

00:09:18.280 --> 00:09:20.139
 is that Jesus loved them to the end.

00:09:20.139 --> 00:09:22.360
 He never changed his mind

00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:24.199
 about his unconditional love

00:09:24.199 --> 00:09:25.439
 for those 12.

00:09:28.379 --> 00:09:29.559
 And here was Judas,

00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:31.980
 knowing our Savior,

00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:34.399
 knowing what he had done,

00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:37.399
 knowing every one of his good,

00:09:37.659 --> 00:09:40.000
 kind deeds and his sensitivity,

00:09:40.379 --> 00:09:42.259
 here was Judas ready to betray him

00:09:42.259 --> 00:09:44.419
 and doing it intentionally against his friend.

00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:47.819
 I want you to understand also

00:09:47.819 --> 00:09:49.480
 that it was done with premeditation.

00:09:50.139 --> 00:09:52.299
 He had thought it out.

00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:54.279
 He pondered about the time

00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:56.000
 in which he could pull this off.

00:09:56.319 --> 00:09:58.259
 And so quietly and on his own,

00:09:58.340 --> 00:09:59.199
 he snuck away

00:09:59.199 --> 00:10:01.059
 and he presents this opportunity

00:10:01.059 --> 00:10:02.519
 to enemies of Christ

00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:03.179
 and he says,

00:10:03.259 --> 00:10:04.480
 listen, I'm ready to do it,

00:10:04.699 --> 00:10:06.980
 but how much are you going to pay me for this?

00:10:07.740 --> 00:10:09.980
 Can you imagine negotiating with someone

00:10:09.980 --> 00:10:13.019
 to betray your best friend or your wife?

00:10:13.019 --> 00:10:15.179
 Here's Jesus.

00:10:16.139 --> 00:10:18.179
 The one who had in every case,

00:10:18.500 --> 00:10:21.179
 there was never a question

00:10:21.179 --> 00:10:23.159
 of his love and his concern

00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:25.079
 and his sympathy for Judas

00:10:25.079 --> 00:10:26.379
 and yet here was Judas

00:10:26.379 --> 00:10:28.120
 so darkened in his heart

00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:32.100
 that he was dickering with these leaders

00:10:32.100 --> 00:10:33.259
 about how much money

00:10:33.259 --> 00:10:34.439
 he was going to get for this.

00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:38.820
 You know, a sin of passion is offensive

00:10:38.820 --> 00:10:41.000
 and more than once

00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:43.020
 we have acted in a fashion

00:10:43.020 --> 00:10:44.760
 that really has shown a very poor heart

00:10:44.760 --> 00:10:45.700
 but I would have to say,

00:10:45.760 --> 00:10:47.220
 you know, it wasn't well thought out.

00:10:47.340 --> 00:10:49.020
 It wasn't something that I pondered

00:10:49.020 --> 00:10:50.680
 and did over a period of time.

00:10:50.760 --> 00:10:51.660
 Let me give you an illustration.

00:10:52.660 --> 00:10:54.180
 You're on a long road trip.

00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:55.100
 We used to travel,

00:10:55.260 --> 00:10:55.780
 Judith and I,

00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:58.200
 her parents were in Florida.

00:10:58.620 --> 00:11:00.200
 It was about a 20-hour drive

00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:00.920
 from where we were

00:11:00.919 --> 00:11:01.839
 in Northeastern Ohio

00:11:01.839 --> 00:11:02.839
 to Florida

00:11:02.839 --> 00:11:06.860
 and we were in a Datsun 510 station wagon.

00:11:07.019 --> 00:11:08.059
 It's much smaller

00:11:08.059 --> 00:11:09.059
 than you can imagine.

00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:10.559
 We had four kids

00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:12.279
 and two adults in that car

00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:14.099
 and it was a,

00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:15.899
 that was before vans

00:11:15.899 --> 00:11:16.699
 had been invented.

00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:18.099
 How many of you are

00:11:18.099 --> 00:11:18.839
 of the generation

00:11:18.839 --> 00:11:19.740
 where you remember

00:11:19.740 --> 00:11:21.919
 the station wagons?

00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:24.459
 Well, we didn't have

00:11:24.459 --> 00:11:26.000
 one of those Land Cruiser

00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:27.559
 boat station wagons.

00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:29.459
 We had this little dinky,

00:11:29.460 --> 00:11:31.660
 dinky Japanese knockoff

00:11:31.660 --> 00:11:33.120
 and we put the four kids

00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:33.600
 in the back

00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:34.800
 with all of our luggage

00:11:34.800 --> 00:11:38.080
 and the first thing

00:11:38.080 --> 00:11:38.740
 that would happen

00:11:38.740 --> 00:11:40.139
 is that they'd start asking,

00:11:40.280 --> 00:11:40.900
 are we there yet?

00:11:40.940 --> 00:11:42.540
 That was not a problem to me.

00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:43.120
 No, we're not.

00:11:44.639 --> 00:11:47.180
 But when I was blessed,

00:11:47.340 --> 00:11:48.120
 I have been blessed

00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:49.300
 with two boys and two girls

00:11:49.300 --> 00:11:49.860
 and guess what?

00:11:49.980 --> 00:11:50.060
 You know,

00:11:50.160 --> 00:11:51.660
 you'd have the seating going on.

00:11:52.160 --> 00:11:53.080
 It's one thing

00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:54.340
 to hit your brother

00:11:54.340 --> 00:11:55.680
 in the back of the car

00:11:55.680 --> 00:11:57.940
 on a 20-hour road trip.

00:11:57.940 --> 00:11:58.740
 It's another thing

00:11:58.740 --> 00:11:59.540
 to hit your dad.

00:12:02.340 --> 00:12:03.440
 Now listen to me carefully.

00:12:03.540 --> 00:12:04.580
 I don't want you to miss this.

00:12:09.940 --> 00:12:11.100
 There's not a Bible verse

00:12:11.100 --> 00:12:12.180
 that really talks about

00:12:12.180 --> 00:12:13.180
 hitting your brother

00:12:13.180 --> 00:12:14.000
 in the back of the car

00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:14.800
 that I can think of.

00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:16.200
 Maybe I text me later

00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:16.800
 and let me know.

00:12:17.280 --> 00:12:17.880
 But there is,

00:12:17.980 --> 00:12:18.520
 paying attention,

00:12:18.620 --> 00:12:19.200
 you listen to me,

00:12:19.280 --> 00:12:20.160
 there is a Bible verse

00:12:20.160 --> 00:12:20.540
 that says,

00:12:20.680 --> 00:12:21.260
 woe to the person

00:12:21.260 --> 00:12:21.980
 who raises his hand

00:12:21.980 --> 00:12:22.700
 against his father.

00:12:22.700 --> 00:12:27.620
 I was full of vinegar

00:12:27.620 --> 00:12:28.320
 when I was younger.

00:12:28.420 --> 00:12:29.060
 Still have some.

00:12:29.160 --> 00:12:29.640
 But, you know,

00:12:29.820 --> 00:12:32.500
 I remember my dad

00:12:32.500 --> 00:12:33.879
 and I having a rather

00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:35.000
 animated conversation.

00:12:35.140 --> 00:12:35.680
 I was 20.

00:12:36.700 --> 00:12:37.900
 And I thought

00:12:37.900 --> 00:12:39.100
 that I could win the argument.

00:12:40.780 --> 00:12:42.360
 I remember reaching a point

00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:43.759
 of raising my voice

00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:44.200
 and he said,

00:12:44.280 --> 00:12:45.140
 you say another word

00:12:45.140 --> 00:12:45.900
 and I'll slap you.

00:12:49.900 --> 00:12:51.160
 That was the last word

00:12:51.160 --> 00:12:51.980
 I said that day.

00:12:52.700 --> 00:12:56.140
 It never crossed my mind

00:12:56.140 --> 00:12:57.680
 to raise my hand

00:12:57.680 --> 00:12:58.879
 against my father.

00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:01.320
 Do you follow that?

00:13:03.140 --> 00:13:05.879
 And here was Judas

00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:10.120
 willing to raise his hand

00:13:10.120 --> 00:13:12.320
 against his savior.

00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:18.360
 An unbelievable act

00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:21.700
 by a profoundly wicked heart.

00:13:22.700 --> 00:13:25.440
 And as we look at the horror

00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:26.340
 of what Judas

00:13:26.340 --> 00:13:28.000
 was ready to do,

00:13:29.060 --> 00:13:30.060
 there should be,

00:13:30.259 --> 00:13:31.340
 in all of our hearts

00:13:31.340 --> 00:13:31.900
 this morning,

00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:33.660
 there should be a sobering,

00:13:33.740 --> 00:13:35.180
 I can't believe

00:13:35.180 --> 00:13:36.780
 Judas would do that.

00:13:37.020 --> 00:13:37.940
 Do you follow that?

00:13:39.220 --> 00:13:40.460
 That's a dark heart.

00:13:43.220 --> 00:13:44.040
 I want you to look

00:13:44.040 --> 00:13:44.860
 at the second piece

00:13:44.860 --> 00:13:45.620
 that I really want you

00:13:45.620 --> 00:13:47.360
 to dig in on.

00:13:48.259 --> 00:13:48.800
 Verse 21.

00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:50.139
 And as they were eating,

00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:50.919
 he said,

00:13:51.539 --> 00:13:51.819
 truly,

00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:53.439
 now how many of you know

00:13:53.439 --> 00:13:54.620
 that the little words

00:13:54.620 --> 00:13:56.039
 truly or truly,

00:13:56.179 --> 00:13:57.039
 truly are like,

00:13:57.279 --> 00:13:58.439
 it's like a highlighter

00:13:58.439 --> 00:13:59.459
 or a yellow marker

00:13:59.459 --> 00:14:00.039
 on something.

00:14:00.099 --> 00:14:00.379
 It's like,

00:14:00.719 --> 00:14:01.699
 it's bold, right?

00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:02.139
 Hey,

00:14:02.459 --> 00:14:03.240
 wake up everybody.

00:14:03.379 --> 00:14:04.359
 I know you've got food

00:14:04.359 --> 00:14:04.779
 in your mouth,

00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:05.959
 but listen,

00:14:06.319 --> 00:14:07.339
 right now I want you

00:14:07.339 --> 00:14:08.019
 to pay attention.

00:14:08.419 --> 00:14:09.479
 One of you here

00:14:09.479 --> 00:14:10.899
 is going to betray me.

00:14:10.899 --> 00:14:19.000
 There are several things

00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:19.860
 that I want you to ponder

00:14:19.860 --> 00:14:20.799
 and one of the things

00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:22.179
 that I would encourage you

00:14:22.179 --> 00:14:22.519
 to do,

00:14:22.699 --> 00:14:23.279
 listen to me,

00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:25.860
 one of the things

00:14:25.860 --> 00:14:27.039
 that goes with being

00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:29.699
 faithful in our Bible reading

00:14:29.699 --> 00:14:31.000
 is asking ourselves

00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:31.639
 the question

00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:33.159
 over and over again,

00:14:33.539 --> 00:14:35.860
 why is this here?

00:14:37.319 --> 00:14:37.559
 Right?

00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:38.299
 Make sense?

00:14:39.299 --> 00:14:40.539
 Why did the Holy Spirit

00:14:40.539 --> 00:14:41.459
 put that in there?

00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:43.659
 Why is it there?

00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:47.139
 I think there are some things

00:14:47.139 --> 00:14:48.240
 that we need to recognize

00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:49.539
 as we look at this passage

00:14:49.539 --> 00:14:53.199
 and Jesus is making

00:14:53.199 --> 00:14:54.759
 a profound statement

00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:55.500
 when he says,

00:14:55.599 --> 00:14:55.639
 hey,

00:14:55.679 --> 00:14:56.219
 one of you is going

00:14:56.219 --> 00:14:56.839
 to betray me.

00:14:58.779 --> 00:14:59.620
 Why is it there?

00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:00.279
 For one,

00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:02.719
 Jesus' announcement

00:15:02.719 --> 00:15:04.120
 shows his deity

00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:05.079
 yet again.

00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:07.919
 How many of you know

00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:08.500
 what's going to happen

00:15:08.500 --> 00:15:08.879
 tomorrow?

00:15:10.079 --> 00:15:11.699
 I was looking at my calendar

00:15:11.699 --> 00:15:12.459
 and, you know,

00:15:12.559 --> 00:15:13.179
 and, okay,

00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:13.979
 this is going to happen

00:15:13.979 --> 00:15:14.799
 and that's going to happen

00:15:14.799 --> 00:15:16.259
 and I reminded myself

00:15:16.259 --> 00:15:17.899
 there's a little phrase

00:15:17.899 --> 00:15:18.579
 from James

00:15:18.579 --> 00:15:19.699
 that sticks in my mind

00:15:19.699 --> 00:15:20.059
 that says,

00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:21.559
 if the Lord wills.

00:15:21.979 --> 00:15:22.219
 Okay?

00:15:23.219 --> 00:15:24.059
 I don't know

00:15:24.059 --> 00:15:24.719
 what's going to happen

00:15:24.719 --> 00:15:25.539
 tomorrow for sure.

00:15:25.699 --> 00:15:26.839
 I have some ideas.

00:15:27.259 --> 00:15:28.639
 My schedule

00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:29.599
 kind of mapped out

00:15:29.599 --> 00:15:30.059
 and I, okay,

00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:30.860
 this, this, this,

00:15:30.899 --> 00:15:31.159
 but I thought,

00:15:31.219 --> 00:15:31.399
 you know,

00:15:31.479 --> 00:15:32.379
 if the Lord wills.

00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:33.779
 Here's Jesus saying,

00:15:33.980 --> 00:15:35.099
 this is what's going

00:15:35.099 --> 00:15:35.599
 to happen.

00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:37.180
 One of you is going

00:15:37.180 --> 00:15:37.840
 to betray me

00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:40.240
 and only God

00:15:40.240 --> 00:15:42.000
 can know the future

00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:43.840
 and speak to it

00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:44.960
 accurately and intelligently.

00:15:45.700 --> 00:15:46.980
 But there's another thing

00:15:46.980 --> 00:15:47.460
 that I want you

00:15:47.460 --> 00:15:48.060
 to recognize.

00:15:48.460 --> 00:15:49.019
 The announcement

00:15:49.019 --> 00:15:51.340
 is also a deep lesson

00:15:51.340 --> 00:15:53.259
 on our sinful hearts.

00:15:56.139 --> 00:15:57.560
 Jesus knew exactly

00:15:57.560 --> 00:15:58.639
 who his betrayer

00:15:58.639 --> 00:15:59.779
 was going to be

00:15:59.779 --> 00:16:01.879
 and yet his opening

00:16:01.879 --> 00:16:02.759
 statements were

00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:03.839
 rather general.

00:16:05.459 --> 00:16:06.600
 He could have said,

00:16:07.059 --> 00:16:08.259
 hey, everybody listen up.

00:16:08.699 --> 00:16:09.639
 Just a little while,

00:16:09.799 --> 00:16:10.659
 Judas is going to walk

00:16:10.659 --> 00:16:11.139
 out of here

00:16:11.139 --> 00:16:11.839
 and he's going

00:16:11.839 --> 00:16:12.480
 to betray me.

00:16:14.579 --> 00:16:16.000
 It is significant

00:16:16.000 --> 00:16:16.839
 that he said,

00:16:17.159 --> 00:16:18.079
 one of you

00:16:18.079 --> 00:16:19.419
 is going to betray me.

00:16:19.419 --> 00:16:20.819
 The thing that I find

00:16:20.819 --> 00:16:22.259
 very interesting

00:16:22.259 --> 00:16:25.919
 is the response

00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:26.620
 of the disciples.

00:16:26.620 --> 00:16:29.539
 Look at it.

00:16:31.379 --> 00:16:32.240
 Look at it.

00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:36.220
 These are 12 men

00:16:36.220 --> 00:16:37.320
 that had spent

00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:38.220
 three years

00:16:38.220 --> 00:16:39.700
 in the presence

00:16:39.700 --> 00:16:41.100
 and under the teaching

00:16:41.100 --> 00:16:42.080
 of Christ.

00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:45.360
 Stop just for a moment.

00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:47.800
 How many of you

00:16:47.800 --> 00:16:48.440
 have ever listened

00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:53.379
 to a conversation

00:16:53.379 --> 00:16:54.379
 in which someone said,

00:16:54.580 --> 00:16:55.860
 well, so-and-so

00:16:55.860 --> 00:16:57.019
 committed such-and-such

00:16:57.019 --> 00:16:57.419
 a crime.

00:16:57.500 --> 00:16:58.300
 He left his wife.

00:16:58.419 --> 00:17:00.100
 He ran off with blah, blah, blah.

00:17:00.300 --> 00:17:01.720
 Or he robbed a bank

00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:02.820
 or he got involved

00:17:02.820 --> 00:17:04.000
 in drugs

00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:06.059
 and he's in rehab now.

00:17:06.779 --> 00:17:07.420
 Any of you,

00:17:07.500 --> 00:17:08.259
 don't raise your hands,

00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:09.599
 any of you ever thought

00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:10.019
 to yourself,

00:17:10.259 --> 00:17:11.180
 never happened to me.

00:17:12.059 --> 00:17:12.620
 Not me.

00:17:13.339 --> 00:17:14.120
 Won't happen to me.

00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:18.519
 Here is Jesus

00:17:18.519 --> 00:17:20.119
 speaking to the 12

00:17:20.119 --> 00:17:22.859
 and he says,

00:17:22.939 --> 00:17:23.419
 you know what?

00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:24.299
 One of you

00:17:24.299 --> 00:17:26.199
 is going to betray me.

00:17:27.299 --> 00:17:28.479
 What happens next?

00:17:28.819 --> 00:17:29.359
 Look at it.

00:17:30.539 --> 00:17:31.319
 Look at it.

00:17:31.859 --> 00:17:32.719
 And they were

00:17:32.719 --> 00:17:33.759
 very sorrowful.

00:17:34.479 --> 00:17:35.479
 Who was sorrowful?

00:17:36.459 --> 00:17:36.859
 Peter,

00:17:37.659 --> 00:17:38.659
 John,

00:17:39.479 --> 00:17:40.159
 James,

00:17:41.379 --> 00:17:41.919
 Andrew,

00:17:42.379 --> 00:17:42.859
 Nathaniel.

00:17:42.919 --> 00:17:43.359
 Do you follow me?

00:17:43.859 --> 00:17:44.740
 They were sorrowful.

00:17:44.740 --> 00:17:46.019
 They were very sorrowful.

00:17:46.019 --> 00:17:47.019
 They were...

00:17:47.900 --> 00:17:52.240
 And they began to say to him

00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:53.579
 one after another,

00:17:54.259 --> 00:17:55.279
 underline these words

00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:55.779
 in your Bible.

00:17:55.880 --> 00:17:56.559
 I want you to have them

00:17:56.559 --> 00:17:57.400
 stick in your mind.

00:17:57.620 --> 00:17:59.019
 Is it I?

00:18:03.099 --> 00:18:04.460
 Do you know what that reflects?

00:18:04.460 --> 00:18:09.680
 I think we make very little

00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:12.000
 of just how dark

00:18:12.000 --> 00:18:12.900
 our hearts

00:18:12.900 --> 00:18:14.400
 actually are.

00:18:20.400 --> 00:18:22.100
 Here is Jesus

00:18:22.100 --> 00:18:25.400
 speaking of

00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:26.720
 the supreme

00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:28.579
 betrayal

00:18:28.579 --> 00:18:32.659
 and every one of the disciples

00:18:32.659 --> 00:18:34.359
 have the spiritual

00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:35.699
 discernment.

00:18:35.699 --> 00:18:36.299
 Pay attention.

00:18:37.339 --> 00:18:38.839
 To ask a logical,

00:18:39.119 --> 00:18:40.099
 practical question.

00:18:40.259 --> 00:18:41.359
 Am I the one

00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:42.059
 who's going

00:18:42.059 --> 00:18:42.879
 to do it?

00:18:43.919 --> 00:18:45.000
 Do you know what that tells me?

00:18:45.859 --> 00:18:47.439
 For a brief moment,

00:18:47.559 --> 00:18:48.259
 these disciples

00:18:48.259 --> 00:18:49.039
 were thinking

00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:50.059
 with clear

00:18:50.059 --> 00:18:50.839
 theological

00:18:50.839 --> 00:18:51.740
 understanding

00:18:51.740 --> 00:18:53.079
 of the darkness

00:18:53.079 --> 00:18:54.740
 of the human heart.

00:19:02.099 --> 00:19:02.640
 You know,

00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:03.859
 we sing

00:19:03.859 --> 00:19:04.859
 the words,

00:19:05.799 --> 00:19:06.720
 good song,

00:19:06.799 --> 00:19:07.019
 it says,

00:19:07.019 --> 00:19:07.779
 prone to wonder,

00:19:07.900 --> 00:19:08.099
 Lord,

00:19:08.220 --> 00:19:08.779
 I feel it,

00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:09.579
 prone to leave,

00:19:09.640 --> 00:19:10.640
 the God I love.

00:19:11.940 --> 00:19:13.160
 And at the very time

00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:13.799
 we are singing

00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:14.960
 some of these words,

00:19:15.460 --> 00:19:16.099
 our minds

00:19:16.099 --> 00:19:16.859
 are engaged

00:19:16.859 --> 00:19:17.980
 in unforgiveness,

00:19:17.980 --> 00:19:19.740
 our minds

00:19:19.740 --> 00:19:20.519
 are engaged

00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:21.220
 in bitterness,

00:19:22.140 --> 00:19:23.000
 our minds

00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:23.759
 are engaged

00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:24.500
 in lust,

00:19:25.180 --> 00:19:26.059
 our minds

00:19:26.059 --> 00:19:26.940
 are engaged

00:19:26.940 --> 00:19:28.900
 in self-idolatry

00:19:28.900 --> 00:19:30.720
 and we are not

00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:31.640
 as fearful

00:19:31.640 --> 00:19:32.680
 of the darkness

00:19:32.680 --> 00:19:33.839
 of our own heart

00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:35.259
 as we ought to be.

00:19:38.380 --> 00:19:39.500
 Take just a moment

00:19:39.500 --> 00:19:39.980
 and turn over

00:19:39.980 --> 00:19:40.559
 to a passage

00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:42.220
 that should help us

00:19:42.220 --> 00:19:43.160
 in relationship

00:19:43.160 --> 00:19:43.839
 to this.

00:19:45.380 --> 00:19:46.579
 Psalm 19,

00:19:46.579 --> 00:19:48.740
 verse 12 and 13,

00:19:48.939 --> 00:19:50.019
 here's what the psalmist

00:19:50.019 --> 00:19:51.159
 says in this

00:19:51.159 --> 00:19:52.579
 unbelief,

00:19:53.099 --> 00:19:54.480
 my wife is not in here,

00:19:54.539 --> 00:19:54.939
 she's working

00:19:54.939 --> 00:19:55.359
 in a nursery,

00:19:55.480 --> 00:19:56.439
 but if I were to ask her

00:19:56.439 --> 00:19:56.819
 today,

00:19:56.939 --> 00:19:57.699
 so how did it go?

00:19:58.059 --> 00:19:58.559
 She would say

00:19:58.559 --> 00:19:59.919
 you used the same words

00:19:59.919 --> 00:20:00.720
 over and over again,

00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:01.480
 so unbelievable

00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:03.179
 is off the table.

00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:04.259
 It will not be said again,

00:20:04.339 --> 00:20:04.740
 thank you,

00:20:05.419 --> 00:20:06.319
 today.

00:20:12.619 --> 00:20:13.500
 Psalm 19,

00:20:14.839 --> 00:20:16.039
 a psalm about the word,

00:20:16.579 --> 00:20:17.779
 that always gets me excited.

00:20:18.299 --> 00:20:19.419
 But look at 12 and 13,

00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:20.439
 who can discern

00:20:20.439 --> 00:20:21.059
 his errors?

00:20:21.439 --> 00:20:22.439
 Hey, everybody look up.

00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:25.079
 Your heart

00:20:25.079 --> 00:20:26.019
 is an absolute

00:20:26.019 --> 00:20:27.699
 pit.

00:20:29.819 --> 00:20:30.559
 And the sooner

00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:31.500
 you come to grips

00:20:31.500 --> 00:20:32.179
 with the darkness

00:20:32.179 --> 00:20:33.139
 of your own heart,

00:20:33.299 --> 00:20:34.659
 the more you will cling

00:20:34.659 --> 00:20:35.619
 to the remedy

00:20:35.619 --> 00:20:36.460
 of the work

00:20:36.460 --> 00:20:37.699
 of the Spirit of God

00:20:37.699 --> 00:20:38.899
 and the word of God

00:20:38.899 --> 00:20:39.539
 in helping you

00:20:39.539 --> 00:20:40.460
 stay anchored.

00:20:41.579 --> 00:20:42.939
 Who can discern

00:20:42.939 --> 00:20:43.720
 his errors?

00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:45.179
 Declare me innocent

00:20:45.180 --> 00:20:46.460
 from hidden faults.

00:20:46.860 --> 00:20:47.940
 Keep back your servant

00:20:47.940 --> 00:20:49.900
 from presumptuous sins.

00:20:49.960 --> 00:20:50.240
 You know what

00:20:50.240 --> 00:20:51.940
 a presumptuous sin is?

00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:52.779
 It's a sin

00:20:52.779 --> 00:20:54.039
 of my arrogant,

00:20:54.420 --> 00:20:55.259
 proud heart.

00:20:55.259 --> 00:20:58.940
 I gotta tell you.

00:20:59.940 --> 00:21:01.180
 I remember a conversation

00:21:01.180 --> 00:21:01.879
 not too long ago

00:21:01.879 --> 00:21:02.519
 with an individual

00:21:02.519 --> 00:21:03.220
 who's explaining

00:21:03.220 --> 00:21:04.200
 the sinfulness

00:21:04.200 --> 00:21:04.960
 of their behavior

00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:06.819
 and arguing with me

00:21:06.819 --> 00:21:07.640
 about the justification

00:21:07.640 --> 00:21:08.319
 of it.

00:21:10.859 --> 00:21:11.940
 But I gotta tell you,

00:21:11.980 --> 00:21:13.019
 I've done the same thing.

00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:16.680
 Judas is in the nursery

00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:17.420
 so I can tell you this.

00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:18.359
 Every now and then

00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:19.799
 I wake up with a surly spirit.

00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:20.779
 Do you know what I mean

00:21:20.779 --> 00:21:21.599
 by a surly spirit?

00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:22.619
 I mean just kind of

00:21:22.619 --> 00:21:23.559
 self-focused,

00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:24.539
 a little irritated

00:21:24.539 --> 00:21:26.240
 and I remember

00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:28.939
 we were having coffee together

00:21:28.939 --> 00:21:29.819
 and I let a little

00:21:29.819 --> 00:21:30.939
 of my sarcasm go.

00:21:31.019 --> 00:21:31.219
 It's like,

00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:32.219
 there it was

00:21:32.219 --> 00:21:32.619
 and she said,

00:21:32.740 --> 00:21:33.619
 I didn't deserve that.

00:21:34.179 --> 00:21:34.819
 You're right.

00:21:36.259 --> 00:21:37.619
 It's just my black heart.

00:21:37.779 --> 00:21:37.839
 You know,

00:21:37.859 --> 00:21:38.119
 it's like,

00:21:38.279 --> 00:21:39.039
 God help me.

00:21:40.099 --> 00:21:42.219
 And here is the psalmist

00:21:42.219 --> 00:21:42.519
 saying,

00:21:42.759 --> 00:21:43.019
 you know,

00:21:43.240 --> 00:21:44.179
 your word is what's

00:21:44.179 --> 00:21:44.899
 gonna help me

00:21:44.899 --> 00:21:47.459
 to not be so self-focused

00:21:47.459 --> 00:21:48.399
 and presumptuous.

00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:49.939
 And he says,

00:21:49.940 --> 00:21:51.100
 then I shall be blameless

00:21:51.100 --> 00:21:52.799
 and innocent

00:21:52.799 --> 00:21:53.900
 of the great transgression.

00:21:54.860 --> 00:21:55.779
 But coming back

00:21:55.779 --> 00:21:56.420
 to the passage,

00:21:56.620 --> 00:21:57.180
 here we are,

00:21:57.580 --> 00:21:58.840
 Jesus explaining

00:21:58.840 --> 00:22:01.080
 that one of them

00:22:01.080 --> 00:22:02.779
 is going to betray him

00:22:02.779 --> 00:22:04.720
 and I am struck

00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:05.539
 by the fact

00:22:05.539 --> 00:22:06.580
 that every one

00:22:06.580 --> 00:22:07.240
 of the disciples,

00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:08.720
 I am stuck.

00:22:09.720 --> 00:22:10.500
 Everyone says,

00:22:11.059 --> 00:22:12.720
 is it I?

00:22:15.100 --> 00:22:16.420
 And I gotta tell you something,

00:22:16.759 --> 00:22:17.580
 listen to me carefully,

00:22:17.579 --> 00:22:18.960
 until you have

00:22:18.960 --> 00:22:20.480
 that level of respect

00:22:20.480 --> 00:22:21.220
 and regard

00:22:21.220 --> 00:22:22.199
 for the sinfulness

00:22:22.199 --> 00:22:24.480
 of your natural inclinations,

00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:25.859
 you are dancing

00:22:25.859 --> 00:22:27.379
 close to the edge.

00:22:31.079 --> 00:22:32.619
 It's interesting as well

00:22:32.619 --> 00:22:35.699
 that what Jesus said

00:22:35.699 --> 00:22:37.379
 brought a very interesting

00:22:37.379 --> 00:22:39.439
 response from the disciples.

00:22:39.659 --> 00:22:41.159
 They all ask a question,

00:22:42.740 --> 00:22:44.079
 is it I?

00:22:44.079 --> 00:22:46.359
 What they were doing

00:22:46.359 --> 00:22:47.099
 was they were seeking

00:22:47.099 --> 00:22:48.220
 the counsel of the word

00:22:48.220 --> 00:22:48.599
 of God,

00:22:48.699 --> 00:22:49.579
 namely the person

00:22:49.579 --> 00:22:50.819
 of the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:52.379
 to help them identify,

00:22:53.059 --> 00:22:54.599
 is it me?

00:22:54.960 --> 00:22:56.139
 Is my heart the one

00:22:56.139 --> 00:22:57.139
 that's going to do this?

00:22:58.339 --> 00:22:59.639
 Instead of being flippant

00:22:59.639 --> 00:23:00.000
 and say,

00:23:00.139 --> 00:23:01.399
 I'd never do that.

00:23:02.359 --> 00:23:02.879
 And by the way,

00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:04.359
 lest we give the disciples

00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:05.179
 too much credit,

00:23:05.319 --> 00:23:06.139
 you do want to remember

00:23:06.139 --> 00:23:07.679
 that just a little while later,

00:23:08.119 --> 00:23:09.199
 remember Jesus said,

00:23:09.339 --> 00:23:10.319
 you're all going to abandon me

00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:11.039
 and what do they say?

00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:12.859
 Hey, there's Peter.

00:23:13.240 --> 00:23:13.899
 Not me.

00:23:14.399 --> 00:23:15.180
 They all step up.

00:23:15.299 --> 00:23:16.180
 No, not me.

00:23:16.559 --> 00:23:17.819
 But just for a moment,

00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:20.259
 we find some good theological thinking

00:23:20.259 --> 00:23:21.200
 in these 12.

00:23:23.680 --> 00:23:25.099
 They're concerned about sin.

00:23:26.259 --> 00:23:28.440
 Hey, are you concerned about sin?

00:23:29.279 --> 00:23:30.960
 Are you really concerned about sin?

00:23:30.960 --> 00:23:37.180
 I was speaking with someone

00:23:37.180 --> 00:23:38.019
 not too long ago

00:23:38.019 --> 00:23:39.599
 about the advantage of being 68.

00:23:41.039 --> 00:23:42.779
 There aren't as many as I wish,

00:23:42.920 --> 00:23:44.539
 but one of the advantages of this

00:23:44.539 --> 00:23:46.139
 is that, you know,

00:23:46.240 --> 00:23:48.379
 it's like I was complaining

00:23:48.379 --> 00:23:48.960
 with someone else.

00:23:49.019 --> 00:23:49.740
 I wasn't complaining.

00:23:49.940 --> 00:23:51.139
 I was listening to them

00:23:51.139 --> 00:23:52.079
 talk about what it was

00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:52.500
 to get old,

00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:53.079
 and I thought, yeah.

00:23:53.740 --> 00:23:54.220
 But anyway,

00:23:54.539 --> 00:23:55.379
 one of the advantages

00:23:55.379 --> 00:23:56.240
 of being 68

00:23:56.240 --> 00:24:00.359
 is that God has dealt firmly

00:24:00.359 --> 00:24:01.220
 with Tim Kenoyer

00:24:01.220 --> 00:24:02.440
 repeatedly over sin.

00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:05.859
 And I'm at the point

00:24:05.859 --> 00:24:06.899
 where all he has to do

00:24:06.899 --> 00:24:07.579
 is kind of tap me

00:24:07.579 --> 00:24:08.159
 on the shoulder

00:24:08.159 --> 00:24:08.639
 and say,

00:24:08.640 --> 00:24:10.400
 do you remember

00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:11.220
 where your parents would say,

00:24:11.300 --> 00:24:12.160
 my dad would say this,

00:24:12.440 --> 00:24:13.840
 you're cruising for a bruising.

00:24:16.080 --> 00:24:17.680
 Something about the poetry of that

00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:19.200
 just kind of impressed me immediately.

00:24:19.380 --> 00:24:19.560
 It's like,

00:24:20.380 --> 00:24:23.640
 my dad gave me the luxury

00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:24.900
 of choosing which belt

00:24:24.900 --> 00:24:25.600
 was going to be

00:24:25.600 --> 00:24:26.820
 the instrument of destruction.

00:24:26.980 --> 00:24:27.220
 It's like,

00:24:27.620 --> 00:24:28.600
 he had about eight or nine

00:24:28.600 --> 00:24:29.920
 and I never found the right one.

00:24:30.020 --> 00:24:30.200
 It's just,

00:24:30.300 --> 00:24:31.580
 but I did experiment regularly.

00:24:31.579 --> 00:24:34.919
 The advantage of being 68

00:24:34.919 --> 00:24:35.879
 is that Tim Kenoyer

00:24:35.879 --> 00:24:38.119
 has a pathological fear

00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:38.879
 for the darkness

00:24:38.879 --> 00:24:39.899
 of his own heart.

00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:42.919
 Is it I?

00:24:45.299 --> 00:24:46.059
 Oh, Lord.

00:24:48.099 --> 00:24:49.319
 Keep me from sin.

00:24:50.659 --> 00:24:51.699
 Keep me from sin.

00:24:52.539 --> 00:24:53.759
 And here are the disciples

00:24:53.759 --> 00:24:54.919
 crying out to Jesus,

00:24:55.119 --> 00:24:55.279
 you know,

00:24:55.399 --> 00:24:56.379
 am I the one

00:24:56.379 --> 00:24:57.439
 that's going to do this?

00:24:57.440 --> 00:25:01.140
 I wonder how often

00:25:01.140 --> 00:25:03.580
 you actually do that.

00:25:05.120 --> 00:25:05.799
 Where you,

00:25:06.080 --> 00:25:07.019
 because you have

00:25:07.019 --> 00:25:09.180
 a abiding fear,

00:25:09.940 --> 00:25:10.900
 an abiding fear,

00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:12.660
 try that proper grammar here,

00:25:13.100 --> 00:25:14.259
 you have an abiding fear

00:25:14.259 --> 00:25:14.840
 for sin,

00:25:15.360 --> 00:25:18.460
 you engage other people

00:25:18.460 --> 00:25:19.420
 in helping you

00:25:19.420 --> 00:25:20.120
 with the darkness

00:25:20.120 --> 00:25:21.039
 of your own heart.

00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:22.720
 Hmm?

00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:29.339
 I want you to recognize

00:25:29.339 --> 00:25:30.299
 one other thing here

00:25:30.299 --> 00:25:31.180
 in this passage.

00:25:32.680 --> 00:25:33.360
 The announcement

00:25:33.360 --> 00:25:34.500
 that Jesus made

00:25:34.500 --> 00:25:35.220
 to the disciples

00:25:35.220 --> 00:25:36.440
 was in a final appeal

00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:37.319
 to the betrayer

00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:38.920
 to stop in his tracks

00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:39.759
 and repent.

00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:42.480
 I'm struck by that.

00:25:45.100 --> 00:25:47.019
 Did Jesus look forward

00:25:47.019 --> 00:25:49.000
 in one sense

00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:49.740
 to the cross

00:25:49.740 --> 00:25:50.519
 and what's the answer?

00:25:51.600 --> 00:25:52.160
 No.

00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:53.240
 I mean,

00:25:53.279 --> 00:25:54.000
 what does it say?

00:25:54.400 --> 00:25:55.019
 In the garden,

00:25:55.140 --> 00:25:55.960
 how was he praying?

00:25:56.579 --> 00:25:57.220
 If it be,

00:25:57.680 --> 00:25:58.559
 what was he praying?

00:25:59.539 --> 00:25:59.980
 All right,

00:26:00.019 --> 00:26:00.160
 Lord,

00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:00.759
 bring it on.

00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:02.360
 I'm ready for this one.

00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:03.440
 Now,

00:26:03.660 --> 00:26:04.680
 one of the problems

00:26:04.680 --> 00:26:05.600
 we have

00:26:05.600 --> 00:26:06.640
 is we are,

00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:08.620
 we're not able,

00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:10.640
 we're not able

00:26:10.640 --> 00:26:11.839
 to focus on true truths

00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:12.480
 at the same time.

00:26:12.539 --> 00:26:13.440
 It kind of frustrates

00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:14.059
 us a little bit

00:26:14.059 --> 00:26:15.380
 because we like everything

00:26:15.380 --> 00:26:15.940
 to be logical,

00:26:16.100 --> 00:26:16.819
 but here's Jesus.

00:26:17.319 --> 00:26:18.140
 If it be possible,

00:26:18.259 --> 00:26:19.720
 let this cup pass from me.

00:26:19.940 --> 00:26:20.799
 And on the other hand,

00:26:20.860 --> 00:26:21.900
 in Hebrews chapter 12,

00:26:21.900 --> 00:26:22.180
 it says,

00:26:22.180 --> 00:26:23.100
 who for the joy

00:26:23.100 --> 00:26:24.200
 that was set before him,

00:26:24.500 --> 00:26:24.880
 you know,

00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:26.060
 despising the shame

00:26:26.060 --> 00:26:26.900
 and during the cross,

00:26:27.180 --> 00:26:29.440
 we can't do

00:26:29.440 --> 00:26:30.460
 the two things together.

00:26:32.460 --> 00:26:33.600
 Here is Jesus

00:26:33.600 --> 00:26:37.680
 with this tender heart

00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:38.500
 in the midst

00:26:38.500 --> 00:26:40.860
 of knowing full well

00:26:40.860 --> 00:26:42.400
 that just within hours

00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:43.460
 he is going to be

00:26:43.460 --> 00:26:44.460
 crucified.

00:26:44.460 --> 00:26:46.960
 one more time,

00:26:47.340 --> 00:26:48.299
 one more time,

00:26:48.840 --> 00:26:50.259
 one more time,

00:26:50.299 --> 00:26:51.480
 he reaches out to Judas

00:26:51.480 --> 00:26:53.880
 and gives him

00:26:53.880 --> 00:26:55.000
 an opportunity to repent.

00:26:57.920 --> 00:26:58.779
 I've got to stop

00:26:58.779 --> 00:26:59.400
 just for a second.

00:26:59.400 --> 00:27:03.980
 If more of God's people

00:27:03.980 --> 00:27:06.420
 understood how gracious

00:27:06.420 --> 00:27:07.519
 and patient

00:27:07.519 --> 00:27:08.440
 and forgiving

00:27:08.440 --> 00:27:10.960
 Jesus is

00:27:10.960 --> 00:27:12.680
 and God is,

00:27:13.680 --> 00:27:15.820
 they would be more

00:27:15.820 --> 00:27:17.780
 inclined to forgive

00:27:17.780 --> 00:27:19.180
 and forbear

00:27:19.180 --> 00:27:20.300
 with one another.

00:27:20.299 --> 00:27:26.960
 here is Jesus

00:27:26.960 --> 00:27:31.500
 facing his crucifixion

00:27:31.500 --> 00:27:34.680
 and he asks

00:27:34.680 --> 00:27:36.779
 his disciples

00:27:36.779 --> 00:27:38.019
 to think very carefully

00:27:38.019 --> 00:27:38.799
 about the sin

00:27:38.799 --> 00:27:39.680
 in their own hearts.

00:27:41.139 --> 00:27:42.379
 I've got to say this,

00:27:42.500 --> 00:27:43.299
 in the face of this

00:27:43.299 --> 00:27:44.079
 scriptural evidence,

00:27:44.220 --> 00:27:44.980
 we ought to be

00:27:44.980 --> 00:27:45.899
 profoundly humble

00:27:45.900 --> 00:27:47.460
 in admitting

00:27:47.460 --> 00:27:48.880
 our spiritual frailty

00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:49.960
 and our need for grace.

00:27:52.320 --> 00:27:53.220
 So here's a little

00:27:53.220 --> 00:27:54.680
 practical little test

00:27:54.680 --> 00:27:56.700
 as to how you're

00:27:56.700 --> 00:27:57.280
 doing at that.

00:27:57.360 --> 00:27:57.920
 Everybody listen

00:27:57.920 --> 00:27:58.820
 because this is important.

00:27:59.180 --> 00:27:59.980
 This is the takeaway.

00:28:00.980 --> 00:28:02.080
 Are you ready for this?

00:28:03.660 --> 00:28:05.080
 When was the last time

00:28:05.080 --> 00:28:07.600
 you willingly received

00:28:07.600 --> 00:28:09.240
 admonition from a brother

00:28:09.240 --> 00:28:10.080
 or a sister,

00:28:10.080 --> 00:28:12.060
 a wife or a husband,

00:28:12.500 --> 00:28:14.540
 a father or someone else

00:28:14.539 --> 00:28:16.139
 when they admonished you

00:28:16.139 --> 00:28:17.119
 scripturally and said,

00:28:17.319 --> 00:28:18.159
 that's wrong

00:28:18.159 --> 00:28:19.059
 and you said,

00:28:19.319 --> 00:28:20.200
 thank you.

00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:23.779
 Let the righteous

00:28:23.779 --> 00:28:24.779
 strike me,

00:28:24.940 --> 00:28:25.920
 I will count it

00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:27.559
 a healing oil

00:28:27.559 --> 00:28:28.960
 is what the psalmist says.

00:28:29.559 --> 00:28:30.200
 Bring it on,

00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:31.279
 I need it

00:28:31.279 --> 00:28:33.180
 because I have

00:28:33.180 --> 00:28:34.500
 a dark heart

00:28:34.500 --> 00:28:36.180
 that desperately needs

00:28:36.180 --> 00:28:37.519
 the grace of God,

00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:38.899
 the word of God

00:28:38.899 --> 00:28:41.339
 and the family of God.

00:28:44.539 --> 00:28:45.559
 Let's come to some

00:28:45.559 --> 00:28:46.619
 closing implications

00:28:46.619 --> 00:28:47.619
 before we come

00:28:47.619 --> 00:28:48.960
 to the table.

00:28:51.319 --> 00:28:52.879
 I have to tell you,

00:28:53.619 --> 00:28:54.220
 you look here

00:28:54.220 --> 00:28:55.539
 in verse 23

00:28:55.539 --> 00:28:56.139
 and says,

00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:56.659
 He answered,

00:28:57.119 --> 00:28:57.879
 He who has dipped

00:28:57.879 --> 00:28:58.839
 his hand in the dish

00:28:58.839 --> 00:29:00.059
 with me will betray me.

00:29:01.039 --> 00:29:01.980
 The Son of Man

00:29:01.980 --> 00:29:03.299
 goes as it is written

00:29:03.299 --> 00:29:03.799
 of him,

00:29:03.879 --> 00:29:05.059
 but woe to that man,

00:29:05.159 --> 00:29:05.420
 many,

00:29:06.039 --> 00:29:06.980
 that man

00:29:06.980 --> 00:29:08.139
 by whom the Son of Man

00:29:08.139 --> 00:29:08.619
 is betrayed,

00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:09.119
 it would have been

00:29:09.119 --> 00:29:09.960
 better for that man

00:29:09.960 --> 00:29:11.539
 if he had not been born.

00:29:11.539 --> 00:29:14.339
 And Judas,

00:29:15.159 --> 00:29:16.019
 who would betray him,

00:29:16.139 --> 00:29:16.319
 answered,

00:29:16.779 --> 00:29:17.599
 Is it I, Rabbi?

00:29:17.740 --> 00:29:18.359
 And he said to him,

00:29:18.399 --> 00:29:19.220
 You've said so.

00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:23.240
 I want you to write down

00:29:23.240 --> 00:29:23.799
 a word

00:29:23.799 --> 00:29:24.879
 and hold on to this.

00:29:25.420 --> 00:29:26.960
 The word is antinomy,

00:29:27.259 --> 00:29:29.859
 A-N-T-I-N-O-M-Y,

00:29:30.059 --> 00:29:30.859
 antinomy.

00:29:34.339 --> 00:29:35.220
 Here's what I mean.

00:29:36.980 --> 00:29:38.200
 I'll explain it this way.

00:29:38.399 --> 00:29:39.019
 An antinomy

00:29:39.019 --> 00:29:41.200
 is two opposing,

00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:43.059
 seemingly opposing laws

00:29:43.059 --> 00:29:45.819
 that you have trouble

00:29:45.819 --> 00:29:46.700
 putting together.

00:29:47.420 --> 00:29:47.599
 Right?

00:29:49.759 --> 00:29:51.039
 How could Jesus be

00:29:51.039 --> 00:29:52.220
 all man

00:29:52.220 --> 00:29:53.259
 and all God?

00:29:53.359 --> 00:29:53.700
 How many's got,

00:29:53.779 --> 00:29:54.619
 who's got that figured out?

00:29:54.680 --> 00:29:55.079
 Raise your hands

00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:55.639
 and wave at me

00:29:55.639 --> 00:29:56.539
 because I want to consult

00:29:56.539 --> 00:29:57.200
 with you afterwards.

00:30:01.379 --> 00:30:02.200
 How many of you

00:30:02.200 --> 00:30:03.259
 understand that

00:30:03.259 --> 00:30:04.639
 our God

00:30:04.639 --> 00:30:07.920
 is Trinitarian?

00:30:09.019 --> 00:30:12.920
 We have here

00:30:12.920 --> 00:30:13.859
 a picture

00:30:13.859 --> 00:30:16.839
 that brings together

00:30:16.839 --> 00:30:17.960
 Scripture often

00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:20.500
 puts divine sovereignty

00:30:20.500 --> 00:30:22.000
 and human responsibility

00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:23.740
 side by side.

00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:26.559
 And one of the reasons

00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:27.180
 it does that

00:30:27.180 --> 00:30:27.920
 is so we don't miss

00:30:27.920 --> 00:30:28.639
 the challenge.

00:30:29.480 --> 00:30:30.900
 And when you don't keep

00:30:30.900 --> 00:30:33.660
 those two truths

00:30:33.660 --> 00:30:36.500
 in humble balance,

00:30:36.500 --> 00:30:37.960
 you end up on one side

00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:38.519
 or the other

00:30:38.519 --> 00:30:40.279
 to your harm

00:30:40.279 --> 00:30:40.860
 and sometimes

00:30:40.860 --> 00:30:41.460
 to others.

00:30:43.840 --> 00:30:44.220
 And so,

00:30:44.420 --> 00:30:45.700
 I want to kind of

00:30:45.700 --> 00:30:46.319
 remind you

00:30:46.319 --> 00:30:46.920
 of a passage

00:30:46.920 --> 00:30:47.620
 in Deuteronomy

00:30:47.620 --> 00:30:49.180
 chapter 29

00:30:49.180 --> 00:30:49.880
 verse 29

00:30:49.880 --> 00:30:50.779
 where it says this.

00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:51.600
 It says,

00:30:51.759 --> 00:30:52.779
 the secret things

00:30:52.779 --> 00:30:54.500
 belong to the Lord

00:30:54.500 --> 00:30:55.160
 our God.

00:30:55.880 --> 00:30:56.579
 What's that saying?

00:30:57.420 --> 00:30:58.160
 There's some things

00:30:58.160 --> 00:30:58.940
 that I don't get.

00:30:59.779 --> 00:31:00.620
 Do you get it?

00:31:01.240 --> 00:31:02.160
 There's some things

00:31:02.160 --> 00:31:03.019
 that I don't get,

00:31:03.019 --> 00:31:05.299
 but the things

00:31:05.299 --> 00:31:06.339
 that are revealed

00:31:06.339 --> 00:31:07.460
 belong to us

00:31:07.460 --> 00:31:08.259
 and to our children

00:31:08.259 --> 00:31:08.720
 forever

00:31:08.720 --> 00:31:09.920
 that we may do

00:31:09.920 --> 00:31:10.900
 all the words

00:31:10.900 --> 00:31:11.879
 of this law.

00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:15.500
 So let me close out

00:31:15.500 --> 00:31:15.940
 with this.

00:31:16.819 --> 00:31:17.819
 In this passage,

00:31:17.960 --> 00:31:19.759
 we see the heart

00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:20.559
 of our Savior

00:31:20.559 --> 00:31:21.779
 as being profoundly

00:31:21.779 --> 00:31:22.420
 merciful,

00:31:24.139 --> 00:31:25.639
 profoundly instructive.

00:31:26.400 --> 00:31:27.940
 He says to the disciples,

00:31:27.940 --> 00:31:29.559
 Men,

00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:31.940
 I want you to understand

00:31:31.940 --> 00:31:33.440
 that your heart

00:31:33.440 --> 00:31:36.820
 has the profound

00:31:36.820 --> 00:31:39.500
 darkness

00:31:39.500 --> 00:31:40.600
 that can readily

00:31:40.600 --> 00:31:41.320
 betray me

00:31:41.320 --> 00:31:43.000
 and live with humility

00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:43.920
 and dependence

00:31:43.920 --> 00:31:44.779
 upon the Word

00:31:44.779 --> 00:31:45.759
 and dependence

00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:46.620
 upon the family

00:31:46.620 --> 00:31:47.200
 of God

00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:48.279
 to protect you

00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:49.340
 from the natural

00:31:49.340 --> 00:31:50.259
 inclination

00:31:50.259 --> 00:31:51.180
 to drift

00:31:51.180 --> 00:31:52.340
 into darkness.

00:31:54.740 --> 00:31:55.500
 Second,

00:31:55.500 --> 00:31:58.000
 here is Jesus

00:31:58.000 --> 00:31:58.740
 reaching out

00:31:58.740 --> 00:31:59.279
 to one

00:31:59.279 --> 00:31:59.779
 who is going

00:31:59.779 --> 00:32:00.480
 to betray him

00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:01.619
 in just moments,

00:32:02.799 --> 00:32:03.559
 gives him

00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:04.700
 one last opportunity.

00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:06.920
 Can I pose a question?

00:32:09.619 --> 00:32:10.559
 There's not an answer

00:32:10.559 --> 00:32:10.839
 to it,

00:32:10.880 --> 00:32:11.839
 but just imagine

00:32:11.839 --> 00:32:12.480
 Judas said,

00:32:12.579 --> 00:32:12.740
 Man,

00:32:12.819 --> 00:32:13.279
 it's me

00:32:13.279 --> 00:32:14.960
 and I'm going

00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:15.759
 to stop this.

00:32:17.640 --> 00:32:19.319
 Would Jesus

00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:20.779
 have granted

00:32:20.779 --> 00:32:21.880
 forgiveness to him?

00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:22.640
 What's the answer?

00:32:23.799 --> 00:32:24.279
 Absolutely.

00:32:25.500 --> 00:32:26.099
 By the way,

00:32:26.140 --> 00:32:26.680
 if he was willing

00:32:26.680 --> 00:32:27.740
 to forgive Nineveh

00:32:27.740 --> 00:32:29.720
 and he was willing

00:32:29.720 --> 00:32:30.799
 to forgive Ahab,

00:32:31.259 --> 00:32:31.519
 right?

00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:33.460
 Now,

00:32:33.519 --> 00:32:34.359
 don't get wound up

00:32:34.359 --> 00:32:35.099
 around the axle

00:32:35.099 --> 00:32:35.480
 on this,

00:32:35.539 --> 00:32:36.319
 but I got to tell you,

00:32:36.599 --> 00:32:37.700
 here's what we know

00:32:37.700 --> 00:32:38.440
 about our God.

00:32:38.779 --> 00:32:39.619
 He is forgiving

00:32:39.619 --> 00:32:40.279
 and patient

00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:41.859
 and he appeals

00:32:41.859 --> 00:32:42.819
 to sinners

00:32:42.819 --> 00:32:43.700
 to repent.

00:32:47.039 --> 00:32:47.640
 And so,

00:32:47.779 --> 00:32:48.160
 this morning

00:32:48.160 --> 00:32:48.680
 as we come

00:32:48.680 --> 00:32:49.480
 to the Lord's table

00:32:49.480 --> 00:32:50.140
 and I would ask

00:32:50.140 --> 00:32:50.619
 the deacons

00:32:50.619 --> 00:32:51.240
 to come now,

00:32:53.000 --> 00:32:54.539
 we take the elements

00:32:54.539 --> 00:32:55.539
 that remind us

00:32:55.539 --> 00:32:56.319
 why

00:32:56.319 --> 00:33:00.339
 Jesus can offer us

00:33:00.339 --> 00:33:02.180
 complete forgiveness

00:33:02.180 --> 00:33:04.000
 for all of our sins.

00:33:04.639 --> 00:33:06.180
 It's because he died

00:33:06.180 --> 00:33:06.819
 for us

00:33:06.819 --> 00:33:08.200
 and died in our place

00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:09.339
 and has granted

00:33:09.339 --> 00:33:09.920
 to us

00:33:09.920 --> 00:33:10.960
 the blessing

00:33:10.960 --> 00:33:11.940
 of an offer

00:33:11.940 --> 00:33:12.680
 of salvation

00:33:12.680 --> 00:33:13.599
 because of his

00:33:13.599 --> 00:33:15.019
 finished sacrifice

00:33:15.019 --> 00:33:16.220
 for us.

00:33:24.839 --> 00:33:25.799
 Let us pray.

00:33:30.299 --> 00:33:31.440
 Our Father God,

00:33:31.500 --> 00:33:32.000
 this morning

00:33:32.000 --> 00:33:33.920
 as we take this bread

00:33:33.920 --> 00:33:35.480
 and we take the cup,

00:33:36.299 --> 00:33:38.359
 we're very thankful

00:33:38.359 --> 00:33:39.099
 that the scriptures

00:33:39.099 --> 00:33:40.500
 tell us

00:33:40.500 --> 00:33:42.039
 that this is a reminder

00:33:42.039 --> 00:33:43.000
 of what you

00:33:43.000 --> 00:33:45.399
 did for us.

00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039


00:33:46.039 --> 00:33:46.039
