00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.859
 Let me pray for the reading and preaching of God's word.

00:00:13.400 --> 00:00:14.660
 Heavenly Father,

00:00:16.260 --> 00:00:21.760
 we know that our salvation

00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:26.800
 and every progress we make in the spiritual life,

00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:33.380
 they depend on what Christ did,

00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:37.620
 his death, his resurrection,

00:00:39.460 --> 00:00:41.799
 and his sending of your Holy Spirit.

00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:48.120
 Lord, we don't want to lose sight of that.

00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:50.780
 We want to remember that truth daily.

00:00:53.040 --> 00:00:56.000
 We want to live in accordance with that truth.

00:00:56.799 --> 00:00:57.239
 Amen.

00:00:57.959 --> 00:01:00.739
 Because that's where the power

00:01:00.739 --> 00:01:06.099
 and perseverance for every believer come.

00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:12.859
 So we pray that you'd remind us of that.

00:01:13.780 --> 00:01:15.219
 And as you always do,

00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:18.239
 speak to us this morning

00:01:18.239 --> 00:01:21.239
 in the reading and preaching of your word.

00:01:22.340 --> 00:01:23.879
 In Jesus' name we pray.

00:01:24.819 --> 00:01:25.099
 Amen.

00:01:25.099 --> 00:01:25.219
 Amen.

00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:33.620
 Luke 24, verses 1 to 12.

00:01:36.679 --> 00:01:38.700
 But on the first day of the week,

00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:40.280
 at early dawn,

00:01:40.759 --> 00:01:42.039
 they went to the tomb,

00:01:42.900 --> 00:01:44.640
 taking the spices they had prepared.

00:01:45.579 --> 00:01:48.319
 And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.

00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:50.379
 But when they went in,

00:01:50.379 --> 00:01:53.519
 they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

00:01:54.479 --> 00:01:56.679
 While they were perplexed about this,

00:01:56.819 --> 00:01:57.159
 behold,

00:01:57.679 --> 00:02:00.500
 two men stood by them in dazzling apparel.

00:02:01.500 --> 00:02:02.639
 And as they were frightened

00:02:02.639 --> 00:02:04.879
 and bowed their faces to the ground,

00:02:05.379 --> 00:02:06.479
 the men said to them,

00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:09.799
 why do you seek the living among the dead?

00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:11.680
 He is not here,

00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:13.280
 but has risen.

00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:18.060
 Remember how he told you while he was still in Galilee

00:02:18.060 --> 00:02:20.080
 that the Son of Man must be delivered

00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:21.719
 into the hands of sinful men

00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:22.860
 and be crucified

00:02:22.860 --> 00:02:25.379
 and on the third day rise.

00:02:26.219 --> 00:02:28.259
 And they remembered his words.

00:02:29.219 --> 00:02:30.680
 And returning from the tomb,

00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:32.199
 they told all these things

00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:34.300
 to the eleven and to all the rest.

00:02:34.300 --> 00:02:38.300
 Now, it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna

00:02:38.300 --> 00:02:39.920
 and Mary the mother of James

00:02:39.920 --> 00:02:41.480
 and the other woman with them

00:02:41.480 --> 00:02:43.219
 who told these things to the apostles.

00:02:44.460 --> 00:02:47.460
 But these words seemed to them an idle tale,

00:02:47.900 --> 00:02:49.740
 and they did not believe them.

00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:53.680
 But Peter rose and ran to the tomb,

00:02:55.180 --> 00:02:56.520
 stooping and looking in.

00:02:57.360 --> 00:02:59.540
 He saw the linen cloths by themselves,

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:03.640
 and he went home marveling at what had happened.

00:03:04.300 --> 00:03:07.280
 This is God's holy and authoritative word.

00:03:08.320 --> 00:03:12.120
 Every single human being that has ever graced

00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:15.380
 the history books that we read has died

00:03:15.380 --> 00:03:19.060
 and is dead,

00:03:19.540 --> 00:03:21.280
 except for one,

00:03:22.660 --> 00:03:23.680
 our Lord Jesus.

00:03:24.780 --> 00:03:28.380
 The death which has plagued humanity since Adam,

00:03:28.640 --> 00:03:30.420
 the very first human,

00:03:30.420 --> 00:03:33.480
 was defeated at the resurrection of our Lord Jesus.

00:03:34.300 --> 00:03:36.200
 So that we who trust in him

00:03:36.200 --> 00:03:39.640
 are promised eternal resurrection life.

00:03:41.180 --> 00:03:43.460
 And if you really grasp this

00:03:43.460 --> 00:03:45.320
 and come to grips with this reality,

00:03:45.320 --> 00:03:48.200
 then your life is not going to be the same.

00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:50.860
 You can't return to business as usual.

00:03:51.180 --> 00:03:52.580
 It changes your life.

00:03:53.020 --> 00:03:54.960
 It gives you his resurrection power.

00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:59.680
 And that's my prayer for us this morning

00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:00.840
 as we go through this passage,

00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:02.920
 that we'll be confronted with the reality

00:04:02.920 --> 00:04:03.600
 of the resurrection

00:04:03.600 --> 00:04:05.439
 so that we live every day

00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:07.640
 believing and remembering

00:04:07.640 --> 00:04:10.240
 the good news that Jesus Christ

00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:11.960
 was delivered, crucified,

00:04:12.260 --> 00:04:13.900
 and raised to give us life.

00:04:13.980 --> 00:04:15.840
 That's the main point of this passage.

00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:19.980
 I'm going to talk about it in two points.

00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:21.040
 First, we're going to talk about

00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:22.399
 remembering the word of Christ.

00:04:22.579 --> 00:04:23.840
 And secondly, we'll talk about

00:04:23.840 --> 00:04:25.560
 believing the word of Christ.

00:04:26.840 --> 00:04:28.899
 Before we dive right into our chapter, though,

00:04:28.939 --> 00:04:31.019
 look back with me at the last two verses

00:04:31.019 --> 00:04:33.180
 of chapter 23, which we covered last week.

00:04:33.180 --> 00:04:33.959
 It says,

00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:48.379
 So it was customary in those days

00:04:48.379 --> 00:04:51.219
 for people, the loved ones that are remaining,

00:04:51.719 --> 00:04:54.079
 to take the deceased person's body,

00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:55.979
 to wash it, anoint it, and wrap it

00:04:55.979 --> 00:04:59.139
 so that it doesn't decompose too rapidly.

00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:01.639
 And so these faithful women

00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:04.659
 who, unlike most of Jesus' 12 apostles,

00:05:04.979 --> 00:05:06.519
 accompany Jesus to the end,

00:05:07.019 --> 00:05:09.219
 they are getting ready for their life

00:05:09.219 --> 00:05:10.180
 after Jesus.

00:05:11.139 --> 00:05:13.839
 They expect Jesus' body to rot

00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:15.839
 after his death.

00:05:16.719 --> 00:05:19.979
 So they prepare spices and ornaments.

00:05:20.500 --> 00:05:22.699
 And as all the faithful Jews did,

00:05:23.579 --> 00:05:24.860
 these women, on the Sabbath,

00:05:25.539 --> 00:05:28.519
 they rest according to the commandment.

00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:30.759
 So Jesus has died,

00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:33.659
 and now they are returning to their lives,

00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:35.480
 their old lives,

00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:37.000
 business as usual.

00:05:38.659 --> 00:05:42.159
 But something unusual is about to happen.

00:05:42.300 --> 00:05:44.480
 It says in verse 1 of chapter 24,

00:05:45.039 --> 00:05:48.159
 But on the first day of the week

00:05:48.159 --> 00:05:49.079
 at early dawn,

00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:50.339
 they went to the tomb,

00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:52.980
 taking the spices they had prepared.

00:05:53.420 --> 00:05:55.240
 So the Jewish Sabbath runs from

00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:57.539
 Friday sundown to Saturday sundown,

00:05:57.540 --> 00:05:59.439
 but probably because it's hard

00:05:59.439 --> 00:06:01.860
 to locate a cave in a tomb,

00:06:02.379 --> 00:06:04.819
 a tomb in a cave that's in the dark

00:06:04.819 --> 00:06:05.460
 in the middle of the night.

00:06:05.520 --> 00:06:06.720
 They went away for daylight.

00:06:07.280 --> 00:06:09.220
 And as soon as there's light

00:06:09.220 --> 00:06:10.140
 at the crack of dawn,

00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:12.540
 they go to anoint Jesus' body.

00:06:13.300 --> 00:06:15.540
 And every one of the four gospels,

00:06:15.900 --> 00:06:17.060
 as Luke does here,

00:06:17.400 --> 00:06:19.840
 records that Jesus was raised from the dead

00:06:19.840 --> 00:06:21.759
 on the first day of the week.

00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:25.240
 They also use sometimes,

00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:26.420
 as Luke later does,

00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:28.560
 the more traditional formula that we know

00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:29.759
 on the third day.

00:06:30.300 --> 00:06:31.539
 But this is intentional.

00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:32.939
 There is a reason why they say

00:06:32.939 --> 00:06:34.959
 that Jesus was raised on the first day,

00:06:35.019 --> 00:06:36.039
 and they emphasize that

00:06:36.039 --> 00:06:38.139
 because it conveys a note of hope

00:06:38.139 --> 00:06:39.480
 and renewal.

00:06:41.099 --> 00:06:42.719
 And this is in the same way,

00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:43.620
 that's for the same reason

00:06:43.620 --> 00:06:44.819
 we like the new year.

00:06:45.719 --> 00:06:46.599
 Something fresh,

00:06:46.939 --> 00:06:47.639
 something new,

00:06:47.740 --> 00:06:48.480
 a clean slate,

00:06:48.579 --> 00:06:49.120
 a hope,

00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:50.980
 new beginning.

00:06:51.780 --> 00:06:54.459
 That's what that first day represents.

00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:55.959
 Jesus' resurrection

00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.199
 makes all things new.

00:06:58.939 --> 00:07:00.060
 And that's why Christians

00:07:00.060 --> 00:07:01.660
 from the earliest times

00:07:01.660 --> 00:07:04.240
 switch their worship time and day

00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:05.120
 to Sunday

00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:07.379
 to commemorate the resurrection

00:07:07.379 --> 00:07:08.540
 of the Lord Jesus

00:07:08.540 --> 00:07:09.939
 and to worship on that day

00:07:09.939 --> 00:07:11.620
 instead of on the Saturday,

00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:12.620
 on the Sabbath,

00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:14.379
 as Jews had historically done.

00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:17.879
 And not just on the first day of the week,

00:07:17.939 --> 00:07:18.759
 the woman also journeyed

00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:19.120
 to the tomb,

00:07:19.180 --> 00:07:19.439
 it says,

00:07:19.500 --> 00:07:20.439
 at early dawn.

00:07:21.039 --> 00:07:21.659
 And Luke,

00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:23.099
 like John,

00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:26.120
 makes use of this light-darkness motif

00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:27.139
 throughout his gospel.

00:07:27.939 --> 00:07:29.459
 Just before Jesus' birth,

00:07:29.560 --> 00:07:30.500
 his would-be uncle,

00:07:30.620 --> 00:07:31.199
 Zechariah,

00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:32.680
 prophesies in Luke 1,

00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:33.980
 78-79,

00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:36.819
 the sunrise shall visit us

00:07:36.819 --> 00:07:37.719
 from on high

00:07:37.719 --> 00:07:39.159
 to give light

00:07:39.159 --> 00:07:41.019
 to those who sit in darkness

00:07:41.019 --> 00:07:42.879
 and in the shadow of death

00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:44.360
 to guide our feet

00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:45.599
 into the way of peace.

00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:47.620
 And Jesus teaches

00:07:47.620 --> 00:07:48.420
 in Luke 11,

00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:49.460
 34-35,

00:07:49.620 --> 00:07:50.780
 your eye is the lamp

00:07:50.780 --> 00:07:51.360
 of your body.

00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:52.500
 When your eye is healthy,

00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:53.280
 your whole body

00:07:53.280 --> 00:07:54.160
 is full of light.

00:07:54.700 --> 00:07:55.580
 But when it is bad,

00:07:55.620 --> 00:07:57.060
 your body is full of darkness.

00:07:57.320 --> 00:07:57.480
 Therefore,

00:07:57.580 --> 00:07:58.160
 be careful

00:07:58.160 --> 00:07:59.280
 lest the light in you

00:07:59.280 --> 00:08:00.120
 be darkness.

00:08:01.060 --> 00:08:01.720
 And notably,

00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:02.660
 just when Jesus

00:08:02.660 --> 00:08:04.060
 was being delivered

00:08:04.060 --> 00:08:04.980
 into the hands

00:08:04.980 --> 00:08:05.580
 of sinful men

00:08:05.580 --> 00:08:06.820
 to be tried and executed,

00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:08.040
 Jesus said

00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:08.740
 in Luke 22,

00:08:08.820 --> 00:08:09.420
 verse 53,

00:08:09.420 --> 00:08:10.699
 when I was with you

00:08:10.699 --> 00:08:11.699
 day after day

00:08:11.699 --> 00:08:12.280
 in the temple,

00:08:12.819 --> 00:08:14.540
 you did not lay hands on me,

00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:16.560
 but this is your hour

00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:17.520
 and the power

00:08:17.520 --> 00:08:19.160
 of darkness.

00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:21.000
 And when Jesus

00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:22.580
 finally breathed his last,

00:08:22.939 --> 00:08:24.200
 he says in Luke 23,

00:08:24.280 --> 00:08:24.920
 verse 44,

00:08:25.060 --> 00:08:26.040
 there was darkness

00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:28.480
 over the whole land.

00:08:29.980 --> 00:08:30.860
 Luke is playing

00:08:30.860 --> 00:08:31.540
 on this motif

00:08:31.540 --> 00:08:32.139
 to tell us

00:08:32.139 --> 00:08:33.080
 that something is happening.

00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:34.080
 It's the early dawn.

00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:35.539
 The woman had come

00:08:35.539 --> 00:08:36.860
 to mourn Jesus.

00:08:36.860 --> 00:08:38.240
 They had come

00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:39.860
 to see death,

00:08:41.300 --> 00:08:42.980
 a grotesque reality,

00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:44.720
 but it's the first day

00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:45.320
 of the week.

00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:47.139
 It's early dawn

00:08:47.139 --> 00:08:49.019
 and something strange

00:08:49.019 --> 00:08:49.960
 and radical

00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:51.100
 and new

00:08:51.100 --> 00:08:52.120
 is afoot.

00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:54.200
 And we find

00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:54.800
 the first clue

00:08:54.800 --> 00:08:55.840
 of Jesus' resurrection

00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:56.580
 in verse 2.

00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:57.820
 And they find

00:08:57.820 --> 00:08:58.919
 the stone rolled

00:08:58.919 --> 00:08:59.980
 away from the tomb.

00:09:00.580 --> 00:09:01.460
 So in those days,

00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:02.680
 a tomb cut in stone

00:09:02.680 --> 00:09:03.940
 would be covered

00:09:03.940 --> 00:09:05.039
 with this big

00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:06.039
 kind of slab

00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:07.539
 of disc-like stone.

00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:08.319
 It'd be rolled

00:09:08.319 --> 00:09:09.039
 in front of it

00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:11.519
 to cover it up

00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:12.559
 and keep people

00:09:12.559 --> 00:09:13.579
 just that have

00:09:13.579 --> 00:09:14.039
 no business

00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:14.539
 being in there

00:09:14.539 --> 00:09:15.439
 from getting into it.

00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:17.219
 And so the fact

00:09:17.219 --> 00:09:17.699
 that the stone

00:09:17.699 --> 00:09:18.279
 is rolled away

00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:19.439
 suggests some kind

00:09:19.439 --> 00:09:20.099
 of tempering.

00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:20.879
 Something's happened.

00:09:21.500 --> 00:09:22.299
 But this doesn't

00:09:22.299 --> 00:09:23.099
 deter the woman.

00:09:23.599 --> 00:09:24.639
 Mark 16, 3,

00:09:24.719 --> 00:09:25.459
 a parallel account

00:09:25.459 --> 00:09:26.019
 tells us that

00:09:26.019 --> 00:09:26.819
 the women were asking

00:09:26.819 --> 00:09:27.299
 themselves,

00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:28.699
 who among them

00:09:28.699 --> 00:09:29.399
 will roll away

00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:29.899
 the stone?

00:09:30.279 --> 00:09:31.039
 So they're probably

00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:31.719
 a little relieved

00:09:31.719 --> 00:09:32.559
 that it's rolled away,

00:09:32.980 --> 00:09:34.019
 but they're probably

00:09:34.019 --> 00:09:34.740
 also troubled.

00:09:34.740 --> 00:09:36.320
 Maybe they're wondering

00:09:36.320 --> 00:09:39.000
 there was a grave robbery,

00:09:39.259 --> 00:09:40.060
 which was common

00:09:40.060 --> 00:09:40.659
 in those days,

00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:41.860
 although that robber

00:09:41.860 --> 00:09:42.480
 would not have found

00:09:42.480 --> 00:09:43.139
 much to take

00:09:43.139 --> 00:09:44.220
 in this tomb.

00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:46.919
 So they head right on in,

00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:48.680
 still expecting

00:09:48.680 --> 00:09:50.240
 to find Jesus' body

00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:50.860
 there.

00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:51.759
 But,

00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:52.919
 it says in verse 3,

00:09:53.019 --> 00:09:53.879
 when they went in,

00:09:54.299 --> 00:09:55.659
 they did not find

00:09:55.659 --> 00:09:56.600
 the body

00:09:56.600 --> 00:09:57.620
 of the Lord Jesus.

00:09:58.659 --> 00:09:59.399
 Notice that there's

00:09:59.399 --> 00:09:59.840
 a repetition

00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:00.960
 of the word find

00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:02.539
 in verses 2 to 3.

00:10:02.539 --> 00:10:04.299
 It forms a nice contrast

00:10:04.299 --> 00:10:05.480
 between verse 2

00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:06.120
 and verse 3

00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:07.019
 and heightens

00:10:07.019 --> 00:10:07.699
 our expectation

00:10:07.699 --> 00:10:08.519
 for the resurrection.

00:10:08.839 --> 00:10:09.899
 Because in verse 2,

00:10:09.980 --> 00:10:10.779
 they found

00:10:10.779 --> 00:10:12.199
 the stone rolled away

00:10:12.199 --> 00:10:12.799
 from the tomb.

00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:14.899
 But when they went in,

00:10:14.959 --> 00:10:16.259
 they did not find

00:10:16.259 --> 00:10:17.599
 the body of the Lord.

00:10:18.079 --> 00:10:19.179
 The stone they

00:10:19.179 --> 00:10:20.240
 did not expect

00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:21.120
 to find rolled away,

00:10:21.419 --> 00:10:22.559
 they found rolled away.

00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:23.599
 And the body

00:10:23.599 --> 00:10:24.819
 that they did expect

00:10:24.819 --> 00:10:25.500
 to find,

00:10:25.699 --> 00:10:27.079
 they did not find.

00:10:27.219 --> 00:10:28.399
 What could this

00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:29.439
 possibly mean?

00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:31.640
 So verse 4 continues,

00:10:31.760 --> 00:10:32.180
 while they were

00:10:32.180 --> 00:10:33.560
 perplexed about this,

00:10:33.980 --> 00:10:34.320
 behold,

00:10:34.480 --> 00:10:36.040
 two men stood by them

00:10:36.040 --> 00:10:38.000
 in dazzling apparel.

00:10:38.680 --> 00:10:39.520
 We learn later

00:10:39.520 --> 00:10:40.240
 in verse 23

00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:40.760
 that these are,

00:10:40.880 --> 00:10:41.260
 in fact,

00:10:41.400 --> 00:10:41.880
 angels.

00:10:42.560 --> 00:10:43.480
 Throughout Scripture,

00:10:43.640 --> 00:10:44.900
 angels often appear

00:10:44.900 --> 00:10:46.500
 in the likeness

00:10:46.500 --> 00:10:47.220
 of man,

00:10:47.700 --> 00:10:48.480
 human likeness.

00:10:48.920 --> 00:10:50.240
 And the dazzling apparel

00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:51.340
 is a clue to this

00:10:51.340 --> 00:10:52.620
 because Luke

00:10:52.620 --> 00:10:54.000
 often describes

00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:55.600
 heavenly beings

00:10:55.600 --> 00:10:56.360
 with this word,

00:10:56.540 --> 00:10:56.960
 dazzling.

00:10:56.960 --> 00:10:58.740
 So example in Luke 9,

00:10:58.820 --> 00:10:59.600
 29 to 30,

00:10:59.700 --> 00:11:01.420
 when Jesus is transfigured

00:11:01.420 --> 00:11:03.180
 into his heavenly glory,

00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:04.900
 it says that his clothing

00:11:04.900 --> 00:11:06.320
 became dazzling white

00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:07.160
 and behold,

00:11:07.560 --> 00:11:08.879
 two men were talking

00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:09.379
 with him.

00:11:09.900 --> 00:11:10.820
 So this is,

00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:12.019
 there's a lot of parallels

00:11:12.019 --> 00:11:13.180
 between the transfiguration

00:11:13.180 --> 00:11:13.879
 and the resurrection.

00:11:14.560 --> 00:11:15.200
 And the presence

00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:16.379
 of the two angels,

00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:17.500
 it reflects

00:11:17.500 --> 00:11:18.660
 the scriptural precedent

00:11:18.660 --> 00:11:18.960
 for requiring

00:11:19.540 --> 00:11:21.180
 two or three witnesses,

00:11:21.300 --> 00:11:22.340
 at least two witnesses,

00:11:22.820 --> 00:11:24.160
 in order to establish

00:11:24.160 --> 00:11:25.580
 a testimony as valid.

00:11:25.580 --> 00:11:27.900
 So earlier in Luke 10,

00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:28.360
 verse 1,

00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:29.280
 Jesus sent out

00:11:29.280 --> 00:11:29.920
 his disciples

00:11:29.920 --> 00:11:30.520
 to proclaim

00:11:30.520 --> 00:11:31.379
 the kingdom of God

00:11:31.379 --> 00:11:32.240
 and of course

00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:32.860
 when he did that,

00:11:32.920 --> 00:11:33.560
 he sent them out

00:11:33.560 --> 00:11:34.440
 two by two

00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:35.759
 so that their testimony

00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:37.120
 and witness is valid.

00:11:37.800 --> 00:11:39.000
 And in Luke 23,

00:11:39.100 --> 00:11:39.740
 verse 16,

00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:41.320
 Luke carefully noted

00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:42.960
 that two civil authorities,

00:11:43.060 --> 00:11:43.660
 not one,

00:11:44.040 --> 00:11:44.600
 all the other

00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:45.280
 gospel writers

00:11:45.280 --> 00:11:46.480
 only note one,

00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:47.420
 but Luke notes

00:11:47.420 --> 00:11:48.320
 that both Herod

00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:49.120
 and Pilate

00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:50.120
 bore witness

00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:51.860
 to Jesus' innocence.

00:11:51.860 --> 00:11:54.159
 and so now,

00:11:54.379 --> 00:11:54.639
 there's,

00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:55.620
 and actually not even

00:11:55.620 --> 00:11:57.259
 just during the trial,

00:11:57.379 --> 00:11:58.600
 but also at his execution,

00:11:59.080 --> 00:12:00.100
 both the centurion

00:12:00.100 --> 00:12:00.940
 and the criminal

00:12:00.940 --> 00:12:02.019
 crucified next to him

00:12:02.019 --> 00:12:03.120
 declare his innocence.

00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:04.240
 So in each juncture,

00:12:04.340 --> 00:12:05.240
 Luke is very careful

00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:05.899
 to show us

00:12:05.899 --> 00:12:06.940
 there are two witnesses.

00:12:07.419 --> 00:12:08.680
 This is a valid testimony.

00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:09.919
 Jesus is innocent

00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:11.379
 by all accounts.

00:12:11.899 --> 00:12:12.460
 And here,

00:12:12.659 --> 00:12:13.879
 his resurrection

00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:15.240
 is attested to

00:12:15.240 --> 00:12:16.700
 by two angels

00:12:16.700 --> 00:12:18.100
 for that reason.

00:12:18.100 --> 00:12:19.240
 And this is,

00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:21.300
 this kind of literary emphasis

00:12:21.300 --> 00:12:22.700
 is why you find

00:12:22.700 --> 00:12:23.639
 some variations

00:12:23.639 --> 00:12:25.019
 in the resurrection accounts.

00:12:25.540 --> 00:12:26.560
 So some of the other

00:12:26.560 --> 00:12:27.399
 gospel writers

00:12:27.399 --> 00:12:28.700
 only include one angel

00:12:28.700 --> 00:12:31.019
 and because that's not a focus.

00:12:31.180 --> 00:12:32.720
 They only needed one angel

00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:33.920
 to display their purposes,

00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:35.519
 to fulfill their purposes

00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:36.080
 in writing.

00:12:36.659 --> 00:12:38.360
 So these discrepancies

00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:40.040
 are not irreconcilable.

00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:41.019
 They're complementary

00:12:41.019 --> 00:12:42.600
 rather than contradictory

00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:44.000
 findings.

00:12:44.800 --> 00:12:45.980
 And what's important

00:12:45.980 --> 00:12:47.879
 is that the basic framework

00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:49.500
 is all the same

00:12:49.500 --> 00:12:50.500
 in every single

00:12:50.500 --> 00:12:51.379
 gospel account.

00:12:51.779 --> 00:12:52.899
 All of the accounts

00:12:52.899 --> 00:12:54.200
 are set in the early morning

00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:55.200
 of the first day

00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:56.019
 of the week, Sunday,

00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:57.679
 with Mary Magdalene

00:12:57.679 --> 00:12:58.600
 sometimes accompanied

00:12:58.600 --> 00:12:59.360
 by other women

00:12:59.360 --> 00:13:00.179
 going to the tomb.

00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:01.980
 The resurrection occurs

00:13:01.980 --> 00:13:02.879
 when the disciples

00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:04.299
 are not expecting it.

00:13:04.659 --> 00:13:05.820
 The initial reports

00:13:05.820 --> 00:13:06.799
 are doubted.

00:13:07.299 --> 00:13:08.480
 The women are the first

00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:09.840
 to witness the empty tomb.

00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:11.580
 The stone is rolled away.

00:13:11.659 --> 00:13:12.559
 The tomb is empty.

00:13:12.659 --> 00:13:13.559
 The angels appear.

00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:14.500
 And then later,

00:13:14.620 --> 00:13:15.340
 Jesus appears

00:13:15.340 --> 00:13:16.440
 to a variety of people

00:13:16.440 --> 00:13:17.600
 leading to firm

00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:18.680
 belief in the early church

00:13:18.680 --> 00:13:19.759
 in the bodily resurrection

00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:20.300
 of Jesus.

00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:22.220
 Every single one

00:13:22.220 --> 00:13:23.100
 of the gospels,

00:13:23.420 --> 00:13:24.580
 every single resurrection

00:13:24.580 --> 00:13:26.399
 account has all of those

00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:27.960
 skeletal consistencies.

00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:29.480
 There's extraordinary

00:13:29.480 --> 00:13:31.540
 consistency in that regard.

00:13:32.200 --> 00:13:33.220
 And if you think about it

00:13:33.220 --> 00:13:33.860
 a little bit further

00:13:33.860 --> 00:13:35.060
 and you're tempted

00:13:35.060 --> 00:13:36.220
 to doubt these accounts,

00:13:36.540 --> 00:13:37.899
 the minor discrepancies

00:13:37.899 --> 00:13:39.159
 in eyewitness reports

00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:41.560
 are not all that surprising.

00:13:42.220 --> 00:13:44.480
 People often wrongly assume

00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:46.620
 that various eyewitness reports

00:13:46.620 --> 00:13:47.539
 of the same event

00:13:47.539 --> 00:13:48.419
 would be identical.

00:13:49.379 --> 00:13:51.159
 But they rarely are.

00:13:51.740 --> 00:13:52.799
 It's common knowledge

00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:54.539
 among forensic scientists

00:13:54.539 --> 00:13:56.639
 that eyewitness accounts vary

00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:59.100
 because both human perception

00:13:59.100 --> 00:14:00.820
 and human memory

00:14:00.820 --> 00:14:02.620
 fluctuate and vary.

00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:04.820
 And depending on who you are,

00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:06.259
 what your background is,

00:14:06.419 --> 00:14:07.240
 your attributes,

00:14:07.500 --> 00:14:08.639
 and your experience,

00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:10.279
 what you perceive,

00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:12.340
 what makes the deepest impression

00:14:12.340 --> 00:14:12.899
 on you,

00:14:12.899 --> 00:14:14.399
 and how you interpret

00:14:14.399 --> 00:14:16.019
 that sensory experience,

00:14:16.319 --> 00:14:17.279
 it all varies.

00:14:17.399 --> 00:14:18.340
 And how much you recall

00:14:18.340 --> 00:14:19.360
 of it all varies.

00:14:19.759 --> 00:14:22.279
 So if two independent eyewitnesses

00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:23.720
 were to give in court

00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:26.139
 an identical testimony

00:14:26.139 --> 00:14:28.279
 to forensic lawyers,

00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:30.539
 there would be a clear red flag

00:14:30.539 --> 00:14:32.159
 that there was collusion involved,

00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:33.579
 that they're not giving

00:14:33.579 --> 00:14:35.199
 independent eyewitness testimonies.

00:14:35.620 --> 00:14:36.919
 So the fact that there's

00:14:36.919 --> 00:14:38.279
 some minor variations

00:14:38.279 --> 00:14:38.840
 in these kinds,

00:14:38.899 --> 00:14:39.600
 which, by the way,

00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:41.059
 are not irreconcilable,

00:14:41.059 --> 00:14:42.979
 shows that these are actually

00:14:42.979 --> 00:14:44.039
 authentic accounts.

00:14:44.759 --> 00:14:45.919
 That's not a fiction

00:14:45.919 --> 00:14:47.179
 developed by the early church.

00:14:48.199 --> 00:14:48.899
 With that aside,

00:14:48.939 --> 00:14:49.979
 let's return to the text.

00:14:50.419 --> 00:14:51.839
 After encountering the angels,

00:14:51.899 --> 00:14:52.919
 it says in verse 5,

00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:54.500
 and as they were frightened

00:14:54.500 --> 00:14:55.739
 and bowed their faces

00:14:55.739 --> 00:14:56.379
 to the ground,

00:14:56.479 --> 00:14:57.519
 the men said to them,

00:14:57.919 --> 00:14:59.439
 why do you seek

00:14:59.439 --> 00:15:01.919
 the living among the dead?

00:15:02.799 --> 00:15:04.259
 He is not here,

00:15:04.859 --> 00:15:05.759
 but has risen.

00:15:07.119 --> 00:15:07.879
 But the fear

00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:09.079
 is a common response

00:15:09.079 --> 00:15:09.879
 to angelic

00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:10.859
 or divine encounters.

00:15:11.059 --> 00:15:12.119
 But the angels

00:15:12.119 --> 00:15:14.479
 offer hopeful words

00:15:14.479 --> 00:15:14.819
 to them.

00:15:15.459 --> 00:15:16.319
 Why do you seek

00:15:16.319 --> 00:15:17.759
 the living among the dead?

00:15:18.500 --> 00:15:19.419
 He is not here,

00:15:19.500 --> 00:15:20.359
 but has risen.

00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:21.659
 The verb has risen

00:15:21.659 --> 00:15:23.139
 is actually passive

00:15:23.139 --> 00:15:24.139
 in the Greek.

00:15:24.339 --> 00:15:25.459
 So it should be

00:15:25.459 --> 00:15:27.000
 has been raised.

00:15:27.779 --> 00:15:29.379
 It's a divine passive.

00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:31.319
 When there's a passive

00:15:31.319 --> 00:15:33.139
 word that's not,

00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:34.379
 doesn't have a subject

00:15:34.379 --> 00:15:35.359
 that's identified,

00:15:35.779 --> 00:15:36.459
 scripture writers

00:15:36.459 --> 00:15:38.039
 are using a divine passive

00:15:38.039 --> 00:15:39.360
 to indicate that God

00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:40.339
 is the agent

00:15:40.339 --> 00:15:41.319
 of that action.

00:15:41.319 --> 00:15:43.039
 So who raised Jesus

00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:43.779
 from the dead?

00:15:43.779 --> 00:15:44.259
 God,

00:15:44.339 --> 00:15:45.339
 the father himself,

00:15:45.339 --> 00:15:46.799
 the almighty God,

00:15:46.860 --> 00:15:48.139
 the creator of life

00:15:48.139 --> 00:15:48.599
 himself,

00:15:48.599 --> 00:15:49.799
 is the one who raised

00:15:49.799 --> 00:15:52.059
 Jesus from the dead.

00:15:52.059 --> 00:15:55.179
 And so the woman

00:15:55.179 --> 00:15:56.099
 should not be searching

00:15:56.099 --> 00:15:58.000
 for Jesus among the dead.

00:15:58.659 --> 00:15:59.359
 He should be sought

00:15:59.359 --> 00:16:00.039
 among the living.

00:16:01.419 --> 00:16:02.319
 And this leads

00:16:02.319 --> 00:16:03.519
 to a gentle prodding

00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:04.079
 from the angels

00:16:04.079 --> 00:16:05.299
 in verses six to seven.

00:16:05.839 --> 00:16:08.179
 Remember how he told you

00:16:08.179 --> 00:16:09.859
 while he was still

00:16:09.859 --> 00:16:10.539
 in Galilee

00:16:10.539 --> 00:16:11.919
 that the son of man

00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:13.259
 must be delivered

00:16:13.259 --> 00:16:14.159
 into the hands

00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:14.939
 of sinful men

00:16:14.939 --> 00:16:15.959
 and be crucified

00:16:15.959 --> 00:16:17.399
 and on the third day

00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:17.979
 rise.

00:16:17.980 --> 00:16:20.159
 The angels are reminding

00:16:20.159 --> 00:16:20.740
 the woman

00:16:20.740 --> 00:16:21.460
 that Jesus

00:16:21.460 --> 00:16:22.980
 had already told them

00:16:22.980 --> 00:16:24.019
 that this would,

00:16:24.259 --> 00:16:25.100
 exactly this thing

00:16:25.100 --> 00:16:25.580
 would happen.

00:16:26.019 --> 00:16:27.019
 And he did

00:16:27.019 --> 00:16:28.220
 in multiple occasions.

00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:29.159
 Luke 9, 22

00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:30.980
 and Luke 18, 32, 33.

00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:32.220
 Jesus prophesied

00:16:32.220 --> 00:16:33.420
 of his suffering,

00:16:33.560 --> 00:16:34.360
 his death,

00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:35.120
 his resurrection

00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:35.879
 on the third day,

00:16:35.920 --> 00:16:36.460
 all of it.

00:16:37.139 --> 00:16:38.259
 And this is the more

00:16:38.259 --> 00:16:38.940
 traditional form

00:16:38.940 --> 00:16:39.920
 of the third day.

00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:41.120
 It's the tradition

00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:41.700
 that's preserved

00:16:41.700 --> 00:16:43.279
 in 1 Corinthians 15, 4

00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:44.259
 and later in the

00:16:44.259 --> 00:16:45.019
 Apostles Creed

00:16:45.019 --> 00:16:45.960
 passed down to us

00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:46.920
 that Jesus was raised

00:16:46.920 --> 00:16:47.840
 on the third day.

00:16:47.980 --> 00:16:50.519
 And this also has

00:16:50.519 --> 00:16:51.820
 biblical precedent

00:16:51.820 --> 00:16:52.980
 and meaning.

00:16:53.620 --> 00:16:55.220
 In Genesis 22,

00:16:55.920 --> 00:16:57.000
 after journeying

00:16:57.000 --> 00:16:58.379
 for three days

00:16:58.379 --> 00:17:00.580
 in order to sacrifice

00:17:00.580 --> 00:17:02.200
 his beloved son,

00:17:02.539 --> 00:17:03.240
 the only son

00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:03.740
 of his wife,

00:17:03.860 --> 00:17:04.759
 Sarah, Isaac,

00:17:05.440 --> 00:17:07.880
 Abraham is delivered

00:17:07.880 --> 00:17:08.900
 on the third day.

00:17:09.960 --> 00:17:11.160
 God provides a substitute,

00:17:11.420 --> 00:17:11.900
 a lamb,

00:17:12.180 --> 00:17:12.960
 to sacrifice

00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:14.240
 so that Isaac

00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:14.860
 can be spared.

00:17:16.059 --> 00:17:17.539
 In Hosea 6,

00:17:17.539 --> 00:17:18.119
 which we read

00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:18.960
 for call to worship

00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:19.980
 this morning,

00:17:20.379 --> 00:17:21.420
 while prophesying

00:17:21.420 --> 00:17:22.720
 of the impending judgment

00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:24.240
 on the nation of Israel

00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:25.039
 for their sins,

00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:26.559
 he utters this promise,

00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:27.000
 come,

00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:28.599
 let us return to the Lord

00:17:28.599 --> 00:17:30.159
 for he has torn us

00:17:30.159 --> 00:17:31.659
 that he may heal us.

00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:32.879
 He has struck us down

00:17:32.879 --> 00:17:34.700
 and he will bind us up.

00:17:35.019 --> 00:17:36.099
 After two days,

00:17:36.139 --> 00:17:37.119
 he will revive us.

00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:38.539
 On the third day,

00:17:38.539 --> 00:17:40.480
 he will raise us up

00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:41.559
 that we may live

00:17:41.559 --> 00:17:42.599
 before him.

00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:45.639
 And the prophet Jonah

00:17:45.639 --> 00:17:47.259
 is swallowed up

00:17:47.259 --> 00:17:48.279
 by a great fish

00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:50.439
 and dwells in the belly

00:17:50.439 --> 00:17:51.359
 of this great fish

00:17:51.359 --> 00:17:52.459
 because of his disobedience

00:17:52.459 --> 00:17:52.839
 to God.

00:17:52.899 --> 00:17:54.219
 And it's on the third day

00:17:54.219 --> 00:17:55.779
 that God delivers him.

00:17:55.899 --> 00:17:56.619
 And Matthew 12,

00:17:56.699 --> 00:17:58.139
 40 makes an explicit

00:17:58.139 --> 00:17:59.119
 connection between

00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:01.199
 his third day

00:18:01.199 --> 00:18:02.480
 resurrection of sorts

00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:04.039
 and Christ's resurrection

00:18:04.039 --> 00:18:05.480
 on the third day.

00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:09.259
 So Jesus had very

00:18:09.259 --> 00:18:10.360
 specifically predicted this.

00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:11.519
 He said in Luke 18,

00:18:11.740 --> 00:18:12.900
 32 to 33,

00:18:13.120 --> 00:18:13.660
 for he,

00:18:13.799 --> 00:18:14.740
 referring to himself,

00:18:14.940 --> 00:18:15.740
 will be delivered

00:18:15.740 --> 00:18:17.299
 over to the Gentiles

00:18:17.299 --> 00:18:18.480
 and will be mocked

00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:19.559
 and shamefully treated

00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:20.380
 and spit upon.

00:18:20.559 --> 00:18:21.740
 And after flogging him,

00:18:21.779 --> 00:18:22.599
 they will kill him.

00:18:22.620 --> 00:18:23.880
 And on the third day,

00:18:24.140 --> 00:18:25.860
 he will rise.

00:18:27.940 --> 00:18:28.920
 As the history

00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:30.120
 of redemption shows

00:18:30.120 --> 00:18:31.279
 and as Jesus'

00:18:31.500 --> 00:18:33.039
 own prophecy shows,

00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:34.599
 the woman should have expected

00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:36.199
 something to happen

00:18:36.199 --> 00:18:37.779
 on the third day.

00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:39.259
 They should have expected

00:18:39.259 --> 00:18:39.859
 the resurrection.

00:18:40.980 --> 00:18:41.639
 And so the angels

00:18:41.639 --> 00:18:42.399
 exhort them

00:18:42.399 --> 00:18:43.699
 to remember.

00:18:43.859 --> 00:18:44.679
 They try to jog

00:18:44.679 --> 00:18:45.219
 their memory.

00:18:46.319 --> 00:18:47.539
 And their exhortation

00:18:47.539 --> 00:18:48.819
 produces this pattern

00:18:48.819 --> 00:18:49.919
 of word

00:18:49.919 --> 00:18:51.480
 and response.

00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:53.699
 In verse 6,

00:18:53.779 --> 00:18:54.779
 the angels told the woman,

00:18:54.919 --> 00:18:56.379
 remember how he told you.

00:18:56.759 --> 00:18:57.639
 And then in verse 8,

00:18:57.639 --> 00:18:58.279
 they respond.

00:18:58.419 --> 00:18:59.879
 They remembered his words.

00:19:00.500 --> 00:19:01.059
 In verse 5,

00:19:01.139 --> 00:19:02.099
 the angel said to the woman,

00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:02.879
 why do you seek

00:19:02.879 --> 00:19:04.059
 the living among the dead?

00:19:04.059 --> 00:19:05.319
 And in verse 9,

00:19:05.379 --> 00:19:06.440
 we see the woman respond

00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:08.059
 by returning from the tomb

00:19:08.059 --> 00:19:09.319
 to the land of the living.

00:19:09.700 --> 00:19:11.619
 So sandwiched between these

00:19:11.619 --> 00:19:13.960
 word and response accounts

00:19:13.960 --> 00:19:15.039
 is verse 7,

00:19:15.220 --> 00:19:16.419
 which is the focal point

00:19:16.419 --> 00:19:17.599
 of this entire passage,

00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:19.079
 that the Son of Man

00:19:19.079 --> 00:19:20.619
 must be delivered

00:19:20.619 --> 00:19:21.659
 into the hands

00:19:21.659 --> 00:19:22.500
 of sinful men

00:19:22.500 --> 00:19:23.519
 and be crucified

00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:26.000
 and on the third day rise.

00:19:26.500 --> 00:19:28.159
 That's the heart

00:19:28.159 --> 00:19:28.839
 of Christianity.

00:19:30.179 --> 00:19:32.379
 That's the basic facts

00:19:32.380 --> 00:19:33.500
 of the gospel.

00:19:33.700 --> 00:19:35.700
 It says that the Son of Man

00:19:35.700 --> 00:19:36.860
 must be delivered,

00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:39.560
 but why is Jesus' betrayal

00:19:39.560 --> 00:19:40.600
 and his sentence

00:19:40.600 --> 00:19:41.300
 and execution

00:19:41.300 --> 00:19:42.640
 and resurrection

00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:44.100
 necessary?

00:19:46.160 --> 00:19:47.820
 Luke often uses the word

00:19:47.820 --> 00:19:49.080
 must or ought

00:19:49.080 --> 00:19:50.060
 to describe something

00:19:50.060 --> 00:19:51.840
 that God has foreordained.

00:19:52.080 --> 00:19:54.020
 It's a divine necessity.

00:19:54.520 --> 00:19:55.280
 Why is this

00:19:55.280 --> 00:19:57.060
 a divine necessity?

00:19:57.059 --> 00:19:59.619
 It says in Leviticus 17,

00:19:59.740 --> 00:20:00.059
 11,

00:20:01.059 --> 00:20:01.839
 for the life

00:20:01.839 --> 00:20:02.679
 of the flesh

00:20:02.679 --> 00:20:04.440
 is in the blood

00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:06.720
 and I have given it

00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:07.319
 for you

00:20:07.319 --> 00:20:08.079
 on the altar

00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:09.099
 to make atonement

00:20:09.099 --> 00:20:10.019
 for your souls.

00:20:10.579 --> 00:20:11.960
 For it is the blood

00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:13.700
 that makes atonement

00:20:13.700 --> 00:20:15.159
 by the life.

00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:18.899
 It's in the shedding

00:20:18.899 --> 00:20:21.279
 of the life blood

00:20:21.279 --> 00:20:23.779
 that there is atonement

00:20:23.779 --> 00:20:24.440
 for sins

00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:27.139
 because as Romans 6,

00:20:27.180 --> 00:20:27.899
 23 says,

00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:29.180
 the wages of sin

00:20:29.180 --> 00:20:30.639
 is death.

00:20:31.399 --> 00:20:32.639
 Only death

00:20:32.639 --> 00:20:35.240
 atones for sin.

00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:39.319
 And all of the Old Testament

00:20:39.319 --> 00:20:40.160
 sacrifices

00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:41.539
 were intended

00:20:41.539 --> 00:20:43.279
 to foreshadow,

00:20:43.639 --> 00:20:45.500
 point to the ultimate

00:20:45.500 --> 00:20:47.200
 atonement that takes place

00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:48.440
 and that Hebrews 9,

00:20:48.539 --> 00:20:49.500
 12 describes.

00:20:49.500 --> 00:20:51.720
 Jesus entered

00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:52.900
 once for all

00:20:52.900 --> 00:20:54.279
 into the holy places

00:20:54.279 --> 00:20:56.099
 not by means

00:20:56.099 --> 00:20:56.680
 of the blood

00:20:56.680 --> 00:20:58.000
 of goats and calves

00:20:58.000 --> 00:20:59.440
 but by means

00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:01.720
 of his own blood.

00:21:03.119 --> 00:21:04.559
 Thus securing

00:21:04.559 --> 00:21:07.599
 an eternal redemption.

00:21:10.220 --> 00:21:11.980
 There was a price

00:21:11.980 --> 00:21:14.000
 that had to be paid.

00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:18.839
 apart from us

00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:20.319
 paying the price

00:21:20.319 --> 00:21:21.579
 with our own death,

00:21:21.799 --> 00:21:23.619
 there could be

00:21:23.619 --> 00:21:24.539
 no satisfaction

00:21:24.539 --> 00:21:25.180
 for sins.

00:21:27.220 --> 00:21:28.480
 We were doomed.

00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:30.359
 That was our fate.

00:21:31.259 --> 00:21:31.960
 But Jesus

00:21:31.960 --> 00:21:32.940
 took our place.

00:21:33.480 --> 00:21:34.059
 He did

00:21:34.059 --> 00:21:35.460
 what must happen.

00:21:36.299 --> 00:21:36.859
 He did

00:21:36.859 --> 00:21:37.660
 what was

00:21:37.660 --> 00:21:38.940
 necessitated

00:21:38.940 --> 00:21:40.880
 by our sins

00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:42.980
 and by God's love

00:21:42.980 --> 00:21:43.759
 towards sinners.

00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:46.079
 And he did that

00:21:46.079 --> 00:21:46.940
 by atoning

00:21:46.940 --> 00:21:47.619
 for our sins

00:21:47.619 --> 00:21:48.380
 and shedding

00:21:48.380 --> 00:21:49.640
 his life blood

00:21:49.640 --> 00:21:50.500
 pouring it out

00:21:50.500 --> 00:21:51.200
 on our behalf.

00:21:52.819 --> 00:21:53.079
 And so

00:21:53.079 --> 00:21:54.180
 just as Adam,

00:21:54.559 --> 00:21:55.400
 the first man

00:21:55.400 --> 00:21:56.200
 and representative,

00:21:56.380 --> 00:21:57.380
 the head of humanity,

00:21:57.880 --> 00:21:58.319
 sinned

00:21:58.319 --> 00:22:00.279
 and through his sin

00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:01.240
 death came to all

00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:01.819
 of humanity

00:22:01.819 --> 00:22:02.660
 and now

00:22:02.660 --> 00:22:03.500
 through Jesus

00:22:03.500 --> 00:22:04.799
 the second Adam,

00:22:05.539 --> 00:22:05.980
 the new

00:22:05.980 --> 00:22:07.019
 and better Adam,

00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:08.539
 the new representative

00:22:08.539 --> 00:22:09.640
 of God's people,

00:22:10.779 --> 00:22:11.220
 life,

00:22:11.779 --> 00:22:12.299
 resurrection,

00:22:12.819 --> 00:22:13.500
 eternal life

00:22:13.500 --> 00:22:14.799
 comes to us.

00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:17.619
 That's why

00:22:17.619 --> 00:22:18.740
 it's a divine necessity.

00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:20.000
 No one can be saved

00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:21.119
 apart from Christ.

00:22:22.140 --> 00:22:22.960
 I want all of you

00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:23.940
 to understand this.

00:22:24.759 --> 00:22:26.259
 There's no other God

00:22:26.259 --> 00:22:27.220
 that can save us.

00:22:27.859 --> 00:22:29.160
 There's no other man

00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:30.119
 that can save us.

00:22:30.500 --> 00:22:31.619
 There's no other religion

00:22:31.619 --> 00:22:32.380
 that can save us.

00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:34.259
 There's no other philosophy

00:22:34.259 --> 00:22:35.500
 that can save us.

00:22:35.700 --> 00:22:36.920
 There's no salvation

00:22:36.920 --> 00:22:38.359
 apart from the name

00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:39.859
 of Jesus Christ.

00:22:39.859 --> 00:22:41.219
 And that's why

00:22:41.219 --> 00:22:42.299
 it's so urgent

00:22:42.299 --> 00:22:43.599
 to proclaim this message.

00:22:44.059 --> 00:22:45.219
 That's why I say

00:22:45.219 --> 00:22:45.959
 the same thing

00:22:45.959 --> 00:22:46.419
 to you

00:22:46.419 --> 00:22:47.479
 every week.

00:22:47.819 --> 00:22:49.000
 Because there's no

00:22:49.000 --> 00:22:49.979
 salvation

00:22:49.979 --> 00:22:50.859
 apart

00:22:50.859 --> 00:22:52.179
 from Jesus.

00:22:56.639 --> 00:22:57.919
 We have to believe

00:22:57.919 --> 00:22:58.319
 in him.

00:22:58.319 --> 00:23:04.619
 many of you

00:23:04.619 --> 00:23:05.039
 have already

00:23:05.039 --> 00:23:05.679
 put your faith

00:23:05.679 --> 00:23:06.519
 in Jesus Christ

00:23:06.519 --> 00:23:07.200
 for which I'm

00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:07.859
 so grateful.

00:23:08.579 --> 00:23:09.759
 And if that's you,

00:23:09.859 --> 00:23:10.899
 it's your responsibility

00:23:10.899 --> 00:23:12.399
 to remember

00:23:12.399 --> 00:23:13.059
 this truth

00:23:13.059 --> 00:23:13.639
 always.

00:23:14.879 --> 00:23:15.559
 The word

00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:16.000
 remember

00:23:16.000 --> 00:23:16.619
 is repeated

00:23:16.619 --> 00:23:17.139
 twice

00:23:17.139 --> 00:23:17.919
 in this passage.

00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:19.159
 Verse 6,

00:23:19.419 --> 00:23:20.000
 verse 8,

00:23:20.119 --> 00:23:20.399
 it says,

00:23:20.799 --> 00:23:22.099
 remember how he told you

00:23:22.099 --> 00:23:24.079
 while he was still

00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:24.659
 in Galilee

00:23:24.659 --> 00:23:25.539
 that the son of man

00:23:25.539 --> 00:23:26.559
 must be delivered

00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:27.220
 into the hands

00:23:27.220 --> 00:23:28.039
 of sinful men

00:23:28.039 --> 00:23:28.759
 and be crucified

00:23:28.759 --> 00:23:29.799
 and on the third day

00:23:29.799 --> 00:23:30.559
 rise.

00:23:30.700 --> 00:23:31.759
 That is the most

00:23:31.759 --> 00:23:32.640
 important thing

00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:33.759
 for you to remember

00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:35.900
 every single day.

00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:38.700
 Too often

00:23:38.700 --> 00:23:39.360
 we forget

00:23:39.360 --> 00:23:40.700
 this truth

00:23:40.700 --> 00:23:41.440
 and remember

00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:42.180
 everything else

00:23:42.180 --> 00:23:43.600
 for our business

00:23:43.600 --> 00:23:44.279
 as usual.

00:23:44.799 --> 00:23:45.799
 But this is the one

00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:46.819
 truth you must

00:23:46.819 --> 00:23:47.759
 remember

00:23:47.759 --> 00:23:49.180
 every day.

00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:49.759
 The command

00:23:49.759 --> 00:23:50.400
 remember

00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:51.380
 is an important

00:23:51.380 --> 00:23:52.579
 theological word

00:23:52.579 --> 00:23:53.220
 throughout scripture.

00:23:53.980 --> 00:23:54.620
 The verb

00:23:54.620 --> 00:23:55.259
 remember

00:23:55.259 --> 00:23:57.680
 occurs 222 times

00:23:57.680 --> 00:23:59.140
 throughout the Old Testament.

00:23:59.839 --> 00:24:00.559
 And that's just

00:24:00.559 --> 00:24:01.240
 one word

00:24:01.240 --> 00:24:01.759
 not counting

00:24:01.759 --> 00:24:02.220
 all the other

00:24:02.220 --> 00:24:02.759
 variations

00:24:02.759 --> 00:24:03.579
 and synonyms

00:24:03.579 --> 00:24:05.119
 of that word.

00:24:06.039 --> 00:24:06.680
 And in the Bible

00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:07.480
 remembering

00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:08.859
 the redemptive

00:24:08.859 --> 00:24:09.619
 acts of God

00:24:09.619 --> 00:24:10.440
 in order

00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:11.220
 that we might

00:24:11.220 --> 00:24:12.180
 apply,

00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:13.759
 reapply that truth

00:24:13.759 --> 00:24:14.819
 and relive

00:24:14.819 --> 00:24:15.440
 that truth

00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:16.460
 in our lives

00:24:16.460 --> 00:24:17.660
 is a central

00:24:17.660 --> 00:24:18.119
 act

00:24:18.119 --> 00:24:18.799
 of worship.

00:24:19.740 --> 00:24:20.400
 You can't

00:24:20.400 --> 00:24:21.099
 worship God

00:24:21.099 --> 00:24:21.519
 rightly

00:24:21.519 --> 00:24:22.299
 unless you

00:24:22.299 --> 00:24:23.220
 remember him.

00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:24.039
 Unless you

00:24:24.039 --> 00:24:25.160
 remember who he is.

00:24:25.259 --> 00:24:25.660
 Unless you

00:24:25.660 --> 00:24:26.460
 remember what he

00:24:26.460 --> 00:24:27.059
 has done.

00:24:27.619 --> 00:24:28.339
 And that's why

00:24:28.339 --> 00:24:29.180
 in Luke 22

00:24:29.180 --> 00:24:29.879
 verse 19

00:24:29.879 --> 00:24:30.920
 when Jesus

00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:31.680
 instituted the

00:24:31.680 --> 00:24:32.400
 Lord's Supper

00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:33.180
 he said

00:24:33.180 --> 00:24:34.059
 this is my

00:24:34.059 --> 00:24:34.640
 body

00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:35.559
 which is

00:24:35.559 --> 00:24:36.819
 given for you

00:24:36.819 --> 00:24:37.839
 do this

00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:38.920
 in remembrance

00:24:38.920 --> 00:24:39.920
 of me.

00:24:40.799 --> 00:24:41.839
 So do you

00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:42.339
 remember

00:24:42.339 --> 00:24:42.980
 the gospel

00:24:42.980 --> 00:24:43.599
 daily in your

00:24:43.599 --> 00:24:43.980
 lives?

00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:46.559
 I guarantee

00:24:46.559 --> 00:24:47.420
 if your life

00:24:47.420 --> 00:24:48.099
 lacks

00:24:48.099 --> 00:24:49.960
 spiritual

00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:50.599
 power

00:24:50.599 --> 00:24:51.400
 and life

00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:52.460
 if you

00:24:52.460 --> 00:24:52.740
 lack

00:24:52.740 --> 00:24:53.339
 joy

00:24:53.339 --> 00:24:53.980
 in your

00:24:53.980 --> 00:24:54.379
 life

00:24:54.379 --> 00:24:55.359
 if you

00:24:55.359 --> 00:24:55.740
 find

00:24:55.740 --> 00:24:56.039
 that

00:24:56.039 --> 00:24:56.379
 your

00:24:56.379 --> 00:24:56.879
 passion

00:24:56.879 --> 00:24:57.299
 and zeal

00:24:57.299 --> 00:24:57.819
 for God

00:24:57.819 --> 00:24:58.980
 is lukewarm

00:24:58.980 --> 00:25:00.399
 or cold

00:25:00.399 --> 00:25:02.159
 I guarantee

00:25:02.159 --> 00:25:02.799
 you're not

00:25:02.799 --> 00:25:03.399
 remembering

00:25:03.399 --> 00:25:04.619
 the gospel

00:25:04.619 --> 00:25:05.019
 of Jesus

00:25:05.019 --> 00:25:05.480
 Christ.

00:25:05.480 --> 00:25:09.700
 there are

00:25:09.700 --> 00:25:10.240
 many things

00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:10.880
 that Christians

00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:11.620
 can be

00:25:11.620 --> 00:25:12.079
 tempted to

00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:12.400
 make

00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:13.200
 the center

00:25:13.200 --> 00:25:13.539
 of their

00:25:13.539 --> 00:25:13.839
 spiritual

00:25:13.839 --> 00:25:14.240
 lives

00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:14.819
 but none

00:25:14.819 --> 00:25:15.099
 of them

00:25:15.099 --> 00:25:15.420
 can take

00:25:15.420 --> 00:25:15.920
 the place

00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:16.360
 of this

00:25:16.360 --> 00:25:16.779
 gospel.

00:25:17.440 --> 00:25:17.920
 Let me

00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:18.180
 give you

00:25:18.180 --> 00:25:18.500
 a few

00:25:18.500 --> 00:25:19.000
 examples

00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:19.380
 maybe

00:25:19.380 --> 00:25:19.660
 your

00:25:19.660 --> 00:25:20.039
 life

00:25:20.039 --> 00:25:20.420
 Christian

00:25:20.420 --> 00:25:20.720
 life

00:25:20.720 --> 00:25:20.920
 is

00:25:20.920 --> 00:25:21.720
 formalistic

00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:24.019
 you're

00:25:24.019 --> 00:25:24.420
 just going

00:25:24.420 --> 00:25:24.759
 through the

00:25:24.759 --> 00:25:25.220
 motions

00:25:25.220 --> 00:25:26.579
 and there

00:25:26.579 --> 00:25:27.100
 is no

00:25:27.100 --> 00:25:27.779
 dynamic

00:25:27.779 --> 00:25:28.339
 life

00:25:28.339 --> 00:25:28.819
 in the

00:25:28.819 --> 00:25:29.059
 Holy

00:25:29.059 --> 00:25:29.519
 Spirit

00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:30.799
 you're

00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:31.140
 bored

00:25:31.140 --> 00:25:31.400
 with

00:25:31.400 --> 00:25:31.759
 God

00:25:31.759 --> 00:25:33.279
 you're

00:25:33.279 --> 00:25:33.799
 indifferent

00:25:33.799 --> 00:25:34.420
 to his

00:25:34.420 --> 00:25:34.779
 word

00:25:34.779 --> 00:25:36.079
 you have

00:25:36.079 --> 00:25:36.700
 no hunger

00:25:36.700 --> 00:25:37.259
 for God

00:25:37.259 --> 00:25:38.140
 but then

00:25:38.140 --> 00:25:38.539
 what you

00:25:38.539 --> 00:25:38.900
 need

00:25:38.900 --> 00:25:39.299
 instead

00:25:39.299 --> 00:25:39.839
 of your

00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:40.660
 formalism

00:25:40.660 --> 00:25:41.120
 is the

00:25:41.120 --> 00:25:41.600
 gospel

00:25:41.600 --> 00:25:42.779
 to remember

00:25:42.779 --> 00:25:43.640
 that Christ

00:25:43.640 --> 00:25:44.600
 personally

00:25:44.600 --> 00:25:45.319
 died for

00:25:45.319 --> 00:25:45.640
 you

00:25:45.640 --> 00:25:46.860
 to reconcile

00:25:46.860 --> 00:25:47.420
 you to

00:25:47.420 --> 00:25:47.660
 God

00:25:47.660 --> 00:25:48.059
 that you

00:25:48.059 --> 00:25:48.640
 can have

00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:49.380
 this dynamic

00:25:49.380 --> 00:25:50.279
 relationship

00:25:50.279 --> 00:25:50.839
 with him

00:25:50.839 --> 00:25:51.659
 and be

00:25:51.659 --> 00:25:52.119
 filled

00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:52.679
 with his

00:25:52.679 --> 00:25:52.959
 living

00:25:52.959 --> 00:25:53.619
 spirit

00:25:53.619 --> 00:25:54.419
 that's

00:25:54.419 --> 00:25:54.579
 what

00:25:54.579 --> 00:25:54.759
 the

00:25:54.759 --> 00:25:55.039
 gospel

00:25:55.039 --> 00:25:55.419
 teaches

00:25:55.419 --> 00:25:55.899
 us

00:25:55.899 --> 00:25:58.079
 perhaps

00:25:58.079 --> 00:25:58.319
 your

00:25:58.319 --> 00:25:58.619
 Christian

00:25:58.619 --> 00:25:58.959
 life

00:25:58.959 --> 00:25:59.179
 is

00:25:59.179 --> 00:25:59.919
 legalistic

00:25:59.919 --> 00:26:02.299
 you're

00:26:02.299 --> 00:26:02.519
 trying

00:26:02.519 --> 00:26:03.059
 to earn

00:26:03.059 --> 00:26:03.500
 God's

00:26:03.500 --> 00:26:03.839
 favor

00:26:03.839 --> 00:26:05.220
 you're

00:26:05.220 --> 00:26:05.500
 relying

00:26:05.500 --> 00:26:05.799
 on your

00:26:05.799 --> 00:26:06.199
 own

00:26:06.199 --> 00:26:06.720
 righteousness

00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:07.439
 rather than

00:26:07.439 --> 00:26:07.720
 in the

00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:08.119
 righteousness

00:26:08.119 --> 00:26:08.839
 of Christ

00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:10.379
 when you're

00:26:10.379 --> 00:26:10.799
 diligent

00:26:10.799 --> 00:26:11.159
 in your

00:26:11.159 --> 00:26:11.539
 spiritual

00:26:11.539 --> 00:26:12.159
 pursuits

00:26:12.159 --> 00:26:12.579
 in your

00:26:12.579 --> 00:26:12.939
 daily

00:26:12.939 --> 00:26:13.619
 disciplines

00:26:13.619 --> 00:26:14.000
 and you're

00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:14.639
 succeeding

00:26:14.639 --> 00:26:16.579
 succeeding

00:26:16.579 --> 00:26:16.959
 at least

00:26:16.959 --> 00:26:17.339
 in your

00:26:17.339 --> 00:26:17.659
 mind

00:26:17.659 --> 00:26:18.559
 you become

00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:19.179
 prideful

00:26:19.179 --> 00:26:20.079
 conceited

00:26:20.079 --> 00:26:21.500
 but then

00:26:21.500 --> 00:26:21.839
 when you

00:26:21.839 --> 00:26:22.639
 sin

00:26:22.639 --> 00:26:23.039
 when you

00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:23.339
 feel like

00:26:23.339 --> 00:26:23.480
 you're

00:26:23.480 --> 00:26:23.899
 failing

00:26:23.899 --> 00:26:25.279
 you get

00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:26.139
 weighed down

00:26:26.139 --> 00:26:26.879
 with guilt

00:26:26.879 --> 00:26:27.559
 a burden

00:26:27.559 --> 00:26:27.859
 that you

00:26:27.859 --> 00:26:28.240
 cannot

00:26:28.240 --> 00:26:28.599
 bear

00:26:28.599 --> 00:26:31.159
 but what

00:26:31.159 --> 00:26:31.679
 you need

00:26:31.679 --> 00:26:32.299
 instead of

00:26:32.299 --> 00:26:33.059
 illegalism

00:26:33.059 --> 00:26:33.399
 is the

00:26:33.399 --> 00:26:33.899
 gospel

00:26:33.899 --> 00:26:34.519
 of Jesus

00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:35.039
 Christ

00:26:35.039 --> 00:26:35.939
 to remember

00:26:35.939 --> 00:26:36.460
 that there

00:26:36.460 --> 00:26:37.119
 is no

00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:38.139
 condemnation

00:26:38.139 --> 00:26:38.720
 for those

00:26:38.720 --> 00:26:38.980
 who are

00:26:38.980 --> 00:26:39.359
 in

00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:40.159
 Christ

00:26:40.159 --> 00:26:40.859
 Jesus

00:26:40.859 --> 00:26:42.119
 and that

00:26:42.119 --> 00:26:42.639
 Christ's

00:26:42.639 --> 00:26:43.079
 perfect

00:26:43.079 --> 00:26:43.599
 righteousness

00:26:43.599 --> 00:26:45.039
 is yours

00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:45.859
 through faith

00:26:45.859 --> 00:26:46.339
 in him

00:26:46.339 --> 00:26:48.500
 that's

00:26:48.500 --> 00:26:48.699
 what

00:26:48.699 --> 00:26:49.119
 humbles

00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:49.399
 you

00:26:49.399 --> 00:26:49.879
 and gives

00:26:49.879 --> 00:26:50.000
 you

00:26:50.000 --> 00:26:50.419
 love

00:26:50.419 --> 00:26:50.959
 toward

00:26:50.959 --> 00:26:51.399
 Christ

00:26:51.399 --> 00:26:53.779
 maybe

00:26:53.779 --> 00:26:53.980
 your

00:26:53.980 --> 00:26:54.240
 Christian

00:26:54.240 --> 00:26:54.579
 life

00:26:54.579 --> 00:26:54.819
 is

00:26:54.819 --> 00:26:55.679
 activistic

00:26:55.679 --> 00:26:58.059
 for sure

00:26:58.059 --> 00:26:58.559
 the gospel

00:26:58.559 --> 00:26:59.399
 transforms

00:26:59.399 --> 00:26:59.759
 us

00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:00.339
 to do

00:27:00.339 --> 00:27:00.699
 good

00:27:00.699 --> 00:27:01.059
 works

00:27:01.059 --> 00:27:01.539
 and seek

00:27:01.539 --> 00:27:02.159
 justice

00:27:02.159 --> 00:27:03.480
 Isaiah

00:27:03.480 --> 00:27:04.339
 1 17

00:27:04.339 --> 00:27:05.299
 Micah

00:27:05.299 --> 00:27:05.919
 6 8

00:27:05.919 --> 00:27:06.859
 but you're

00:27:06.859 --> 00:27:07.759
 so consumed

00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:08.199
 with the

00:27:08.199 --> 00:27:08.599
 evil

00:27:08.599 --> 00:27:08.959
 that is

00:27:08.959 --> 00:27:09.599
 out there

00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:11.039
 that you've

00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:11.639
 lost sight

00:27:11.639 --> 00:27:11.879
 of the

00:27:11.879 --> 00:27:12.240
 evil

00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:12.839
 within

00:27:12.839 --> 00:27:13.179
 you

00:27:13.180 --> 00:27:16.519
 so your

00:27:16.519 --> 00:27:16.980
 activism

00:27:16.980 --> 00:27:17.680
 has become

00:27:17.680 --> 00:27:18.779
 self-righteous

00:27:18.779 --> 00:27:20.200
 and strident

00:27:20.200 --> 00:27:21.259
 you've

00:27:21.259 --> 00:27:21.640
 forgotten

00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:22.320
 the sweet

00:27:22.320 --> 00:27:22.980
 grace of

00:27:22.980 --> 00:27:23.259
 God

00:27:23.259 --> 00:27:23.539
 and your

00:27:23.539 --> 00:27:23.880
 own

00:27:23.880 --> 00:27:24.100
 need

00:27:24.100 --> 00:27:24.279
 for

00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:24.720
 forgiveness

00:27:24.720 --> 00:27:25.880
 you've

00:27:25.880 --> 00:27:26.120
 become

00:27:26.120 --> 00:27:26.420
 so

00:27:26.420 --> 00:27:26.960
 focused

00:27:26.960 --> 00:27:27.259
 on

00:27:27.259 --> 00:27:27.660
 saving

00:27:27.660 --> 00:27:27.920
 this

00:27:27.920 --> 00:27:28.360
 world

00:27:28.360 --> 00:27:29.160
 that

00:27:29.160 --> 00:27:29.340
 you've

00:27:29.340 --> 00:27:29.740
 forgotten

00:27:29.740 --> 00:27:30.019
 that

00:27:30.019 --> 00:27:30.299
 God

00:27:30.299 --> 00:27:30.620
 so

00:27:30.620 --> 00:27:31.000
 loved

00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:31.160
 the

00:27:31.160 --> 00:27:31.480
 world

00:27:31.480 --> 00:27:31.880
 he

00:27:31.880 --> 00:27:32.299
 sent

00:27:32.299 --> 00:27:32.560
 his

00:27:32.560 --> 00:27:32.980
 only

00:27:32.980 --> 00:27:33.580
 son

00:27:33.580 --> 00:27:34.080
 already

00:27:34.080 --> 00:27:34.519
 to

00:27:34.519 --> 00:27:34.920
 save

00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:35.220
 it

00:27:35.220 --> 00:27:38.180
 but

00:27:38.180 --> 00:27:38.400
 what

00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:38.580
 you

00:27:38.580 --> 00:27:38.920
 need

00:27:38.920 --> 00:27:39.259
 instead

00:27:39.259 --> 00:27:39.500
 of

00:27:39.500 --> 00:27:39.720
 your

00:27:39.720 --> 00:27:40.180
 activism

00:27:40.180 --> 00:27:40.420
 is

00:27:40.420 --> 00:27:40.600
 the

00:27:40.600 --> 00:27:41.039
 gospel

00:27:41.039 --> 00:27:41.259
 of

00:27:41.259 --> 00:27:41.480
 Jesus

00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:42.000
 Christ

00:27:42.000 --> 00:27:43.059
 to

00:27:43.059 --> 00:27:43.539
 remember

00:27:43.539 --> 00:27:43.839
 that

00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:44.119
 you

00:27:44.119 --> 00:27:44.819
 yourself

00:27:44.819 --> 00:27:45.500
 is a

00:27:45.500 --> 00:27:45.759
 sinner

00:27:45.759 --> 00:27:46.220
 saved

00:27:46.220 --> 00:27:46.420
 by

00:27:46.420 --> 00:27:46.579
 the

00:27:46.579 --> 00:27:46.819
 grace

00:27:46.819 --> 00:27:46.980
 of

00:27:46.980 --> 00:27:47.259
 God

00:27:47.259 --> 00:27:48.099
 and

00:27:48.099 --> 00:27:48.220
 that

00:27:48.220 --> 00:27:48.400
 the

00:27:48.400 --> 00:27:48.920
 ultimate

00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:49.220
 hope

00:27:49.220 --> 00:27:49.380
 of

00:27:49.380 --> 00:27:49.859
 salvation

00:27:49.859 --> 00:27:50.519
 is

00:27:50.519 --> 00:27:50.799
 not

00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:51.319
 you

00:27:51.319 --> 00:27:52.779
 but

00:27:52.779 --> 00:27:53.339
 Jesus

00:27:53.339 --> 00:27:58.259
 perhaps

00:27:58.259 --> 00:27:58.500
 your

00:27:58.500 --> 00:27:58.940
 Christian

00:27:58.940 --> 00:27:59.299
 life

00:27:59.299 --> 00:27:59.599
 is

00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:00.940
 scholastic

00:28:00.940 --> 00:28:03.880
 you're

00:28:03.880 --> 00:28:04.400
 puffed up

00:28:04.400 --> 00:28:04.579
 with

00:28:04.579 --> 00:28:05.079
 knowledge

00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:06.880
 you can

00:28:06.880 --> 00:28:07.240
 wax

00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:07.640
 eloquent

00:28:07.640 --> 00:28:07.839
 on

00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:08.579
 Christology

00:28:08.579 --> 00:28:08.960
 the

00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:09.460
 theology

00:28:09.460 --> 00:28:09.599
 of

00:28:09.599 --> 00:28:09.720
 the

00:28:09.720 --> 00:28:09.859
 son

00:28:09.859 --> 00:28:09.980
 of

00:28:09.980 --> 00:28:10.299
 God

00:28:10.299 --> 00:28:11.879
 but

00:28:11.879 --> 00:28:11.980
 you

00:28:11.980 --> 00:28:12.079
 do

00:28:12.079 --> 00:28:12.259
 not

00:28:12.259 --> 00:28:12.559
 have

00:28:12.559 --> 00:28:12.740
 the

00:28:12.740 --> 00:28:13.139
 humility

00:28:13.139 --> 00:28:13.379
 of

00:28:13.379 --> 00:28:13.759
 Christ

00:28:13.759 --> 00:28:16.240
 you

00:28:16.240 --> 00:28:16.379
 can

00:28:16.379 --> 00:28:16.779
 debate

00:28:16.779 --> 00:28:17.039
 the

00:28:17.039 --> 00:28:17.519
 nuances

00:28:17.519 --> 00:28:17.919
 of

00:28:17.919 --> 00:28:18.799
 pneumatology

00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:19.000
 the

00:28:19.000 --> 00:28:19.359
 doctrine

00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:19.579
 of

00:28:19.579 --> 00:28:19.720
 the

00:28:19.720 --> 00:28:19.919
 Holy

00:28:19.919 --> 00:28:20.319
 Spirit

00:28:20.319 --> 00:28:21.000
 but

00:28:21.000 --> 00:28:21.159
 you

00:28:21.159 --> 00:28:21.379
 are

00:28:21.379 --> 00:28:21.759
 not

00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:22.180
 yourself

00:28:22.180 --> 00:28:22.720
 filled

00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:23.339
 with

00:28:23.339 --> 00:28:23.519
 the

00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:23.720
 Holy

00:28:23.720 --> 00:28:24.119
 Spirit

00:28:24.119 --> 00:28:25.000
 you

00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:25.099
 do

00:28:25.099 --> 00:28:25.259
 not

00:28:25.259 --> 00:28:25.720
 display

00:28:25.720 --> 00:28:25.960
 the

00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:26.279
 fruit

00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:26.440
 of

00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:26.579
 the

00:28:26.579 --> 00:28:26.960
 spirit

00:28:26.960 --> 00:28:27.119
 in

00:28:27.119 --> 00:28:27.240
 your

00:28:27.240 --> 00:28:27.579
 life

00:28:27.579 --> 00:28:28.079
 you

00:28:28.079 --> 00:28:28.259
 get

00:28:28.259 --> 00:28:28.419
 a

00:28:28.419 --> 00:28:28.779
 rise

00:28:28.779 --> 00:28:29.000
 out

00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:29.180
 of

00:28:29.180 --> 00:28:29.940
 nitpicking

00:28:29.940 --> 00:28:30.440
 books

00:28:30.440 --> 00:28:30.700
 and

00:28:30.700 --> 00:28:31.180
 articles

00:28:31.180 --> 00:28:31.480
 and

00:28:31.480 --> 00:28:32.019
 sermons

00:28:32.019 --> 00:28:32.599
 and

00:28:32.599 --> 00:28:32.779
 you're

00:28:32.779 --> 00:28:33.579
 intolerant

00:28:33.579 --> 00:28:33.940
 and

00:28:33.940 --> 00:28:34.559
 pridefully

00:28:34.559 --> 00:28:35.019
 critical

00:28:35.019 --> 00:28:35.359
 of

00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:35.960
 anyone

00:28:35.960 --> 00:28:36.159
 who

00:28:36.159 --> 00:28:36.319
 does

00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:36.519
 not

00:28:36.519 --> 00:28:36.859
 share

00:28:36.859 --> 00:28:37.200
 your

00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:37.539
 level

00:28:37.539 --> 00:28:37.720
 of

00:28:37.720 --> 00:28:38.180
 theological

00:28:38.180 --> 00:28:38.720
 precision

00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:42.039
 you

00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:42.180
 have

00:28:42.180 --> 00:28:42.579
 mastered

00:28:42.579 --> 00:28:42.759
 the

00:28:42.759 --> 00:28:42.900
 word

00:28:42.900 --> 00:28:43.039
 of

00:28:43.039 --> 00:28:43.299
 God

00:28:43.299 --> 00:28:44.039
 but

00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:44.240
 you

00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:44.440
 have

00:28:44.440 --> 00:28:44.740
 not

00:28:44.740 --> 00:28:44.980
 been

00:28:44.980 --> 00:28:45.440
 mastered

00:28:45.440 --> 00:28:45.860
 by

00:28:45.860 --> 00:28:46.059
 the

00:28:46.059 --> 00:28:46.200
 word

00:28:46.200 --> 00:28:46.360
 of

00:28:46.360 --> 00:28:46.680
 God

00:28:46.680 --> 00:28:49.980
 and

00:28:49.980 --> 00:28:50.200
 what

00:28:50.200 --> 00:28:50.380
 you

00:28:50.380 --> 00:28:50.700
 need

00:28:50.700 --> 00:28:51.079
 instead

00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:51.259
 of

00:28:51.259 --> 00:28:51.400
 your

00:28:51.400 --> 00:28:52.799
 scholasticism

00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:53.019
 is

00:28:53.019 --> 00:28:53.200
 the

00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:53.680
 gospel

00:28:53.680 --> 00:28:54.620
 to

00:28:54.620 --> 00:28:55.180
 remember

00:28:55.180 --> 00:28:55.680
 that

00:28:55.680 --> 00:28:56.100
 Christ

00:28:56.100 --> 00:28:56.500
 didn't

00:28:56.500 --> 00:28:56.940
 come

00:28:56.940 --> 00:28:57.360
 so

00:28:57.360 --> 00:28:57.519
 that

00:28:57.519 --> 00:28:57.680
 you

00:28:57.680 --> 00:28:58.000
 might

00:28:58.000 --> 00:28:59.039
 theorize

00:28:59.039 --> 00:28:59.279
 about

00:28:59.279 --> 00:28:59.579
 him

00:28:59.579 --> 00:29:00.720
 but

00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:00.880
 so

00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:01.019
 that

00:29:01.019 --> 00:29:01.120
 you

00:29:01.120 --> 00:29:01.339
 might

00:29:01.339 --> 00:29:01.740
 know

00:29:01.740 --> 00:29:02.079
 him

00:29:02.079 --> 00:29:02.740
 personally

00:29:02.740 --> 00:29:03.259
 and

00:29:03.259 --> 00:29:04.339
 experientially

00:29:04.339 --> 00:29:04.720
 so

00:29:04.720 --> 00:29:04.839
 that

00:29:04.839 --> 00:29:04.940
 you

00:29:04.940 --> 00:29:05.100
 might

00:29:05.100 --> 00:29:05.299
 be

00:29:05.299 --> 00:29:05.799
 humbled

00:29:05.799 --> 00:29:06.279
 by

00:29:06.279 --> 00:29:06.519
 the

00:29:06.519 --> 00:29:06.880
 grand

00:29:06.880 --> 00:29:07.380
 realities

00:29:07.380 --> 00:29:07.560
 of

00:29:07.560 --> 00:29:07.700
 the

00:29:07.700 --> 00:29:08.080
 gospel

00:29:08.080 --> 00:29:08.780
 and

00:29:08.780 --> 00:29:08.960
 be

00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:09.240
 built

00:29:09.240 --> 00:29:09.500
 up

00:29:09.500 --> 00:29:09.700
 in

00:29:09.700 --> 00:29:10.100
 love

00:29:10.100 --> 00:29:10.560
 that's

00:29:10.560 --> 00:29:10.940
 why

00:29:10.940 --> 00:29:14.060
 maybe

00:29:14.060 --> 00:29:14.260
 your

00:29:14.260 --> 00:29:14.560
 life

00:29:14.560 --> 00:29:14.820
 is

00:29:14.820 --> 00:29:15.360
 more

00:29:15.360 --> 00:29:16.020
 mystical

00:29:16.020 --> 00:29:16.420
 or

00:29:16.420 --> 00:29:16.940
 emotional

00:29:16.940 --> 00:29:17.440
istic

00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:18.240
 and

00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:18.420
 for

00:29:18.420 --> 00:29:18.720
 sure

00:29:18.720 --> 00:29:18.940
 the

00:29:18.940 --> 00:29:19.340
 gospel

00:29:19.340 --> 00:29:19.920
 affects

00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:20.080
 our

00:29:20.080 --> 00:29:20.660
 emotions

00:29:20.660 --> 00:29:20.900
 as

00:29:20.900 --> 00:29:21.200
 well

00:29:21.200 --> 00:29:21.700
 if

00:29:21.700 --> 00:29:21.840
 our

00:29:21.840 --> 00:29:22.200
 emotions

00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:22.420
 are

00:29:22.420 --> 00:29:22.700
 not

00:29:22.700 --> 00:29:23.120
 affected

00:29:23.120 --> 00:29:23.500
 something

00:29:23.500 --> 00:29:23.880
 is

00:29:23.880 --> 00:29:24.540
 awry

00:29:24.540 --> 00:29:26.020
 but

00:29:26.020 --> 00:29:26.400
 you

00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:26.580
 go

00:29:26.580 --> 00:29:26.900
 beyond

00:29:26.900 --> 00:29:27.280
 that

00:29:27.280 --> 00:29:28.240
 your

00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:28.600
 faith

00:29:28.600 --> 00:29:29.060
 rests

00:29:29.060 --> 00:29:29.720
 unduly

00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:30.080
 on

00:29:30.080 --> 00:29:30.280
 the

00:29:30.280 --> 00:29:30.620
 highs

00:29:30.620 --> 00:29:30.820
 and

00:29:30.820 --> 00:29:31.080
 lows

00:29:31.080 --> 00:29:31.240
 of

00:29:31.240 --> 00:29:31.360
 your

00:29:31.360 --> 00:29:31.760
 emotions

00:29:31.760 --> 00:29:32.020
 so

00:29:32.020 --> 00:29:32.220
 you're

00:29:32.220 --> 00:29:32.880
 unstable

00:29:32.880 --> 00:29:33.260
 and

00:29:33.260 --> 00:29:33.420
 your

00:29:33.420 --> 00:29:33.700
 pursuit

00:29:33.700 --> 00:29:33.860
 of

00:29:33.860 --> 00:29:34.080
 God

00:29:34.080 --> 00:29:34.260
 is

00:29:34.260 --> 00:29:35.160
 unsustainable

00:29:35.160 --> 00:29:36.760
 going

00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:36.980
 from

00:29:36.980 --> 00:29:37.279
 one

00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:37.680
 emotional

00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:38.119
 high

00:29:38.119 --> 00:29:38.420
 to

00:29:38.420 --> 00:29:38.559
 the

00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:38.819
 next

00:29:38.819 --> 00:29:39.119
 without

00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:39.379
 any

00:29:39.379 --> 00:29:40.059
 enduring

00:29:40.059 --> 00:29:41.480
 steadfast

00:29:41.480 --> 00:29:41.960
 devotion

00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:42.160
 and

00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:42.460
 service

00:29:42.460 --> 00:29:42.640
 to

00:29:42.640 --> 00:29:42.879
 God

00:29:42.879 --> 00:29:44.160
 but

00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:44.539
 instead

00:29:44.539 --> 00:29:45.000
 what

00:29:45.000 --> 00:29:45.180
 you

00:29:45.180 --> 00:29:45.519
 need

00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:45.779
 is

00:29:45.779 --> 00:29:45.920
 the

00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:46.400
 gospel

00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:47.480
 to

00:29:47.480 --> 00:29:48.079
 remember

00:29:48.079 --> 00:29:48.720
 that

00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:48.879
 though

00:29:48.879 --> 00:29:49.180
 your

00:29:49.180 --> 00:29:49.940
 subjective

00:29:49.940 --> 00:29:50.900
 feelings

00:29:50.900 --> 00:29:51.240
 might

00:29:51.240 --> 00:29:51.839
 change

00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:52.420
 the

00:29:52.420 --> 00:29:53.059
 objective

00:29:53.059 --> 00:29:54.079
 reality

00:29:54.079 --> 00:29:54.660
 of what

00:29:54.660 --> 00:29:55.119
 Christ

00:29:55.119 --> 00:29:55.359
 has

00:29:55.359 --> 00:29:55.680
 done

00:29:55.680 --> 00:29:55.920
 for

00:29:55.920 --> 00:29:56.259
 you

00:29:56.259 --> 00:29:57.000
 never

00:29:57.000 --> 00:29:57.579
 changes

00:29:57.579 --> 00:29:57.980
 no matter

00:29:57.980 --> 00:29:58.700
 how bad

00:29:58.700 --> 00:29:58.920
 of a

00:29:58.920 --> 00:29:59.099
 day

00:29:59.099 --> 00:29:59.319
 you're

00:29:59.319 --> 00:29:59.700
 having

00:29:59.700 --> 00:30:01.299
 it's

00:30:01.299 --> 00:30:01.440
 by

00:30:01.440 --> 00:30:02.000
 remembering

00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:02.640
 that

00:30:02.640 --> 00:30:02.900
 that

00:30:02.900 --> 00:30:03.019
 you

00:30:03.019 --> 00:30:03.460
 grow

00:30:03.460 --> 00:30:07.600
 perhaps

00:30:07.600 --> 00:30:08.200
 one last

00:30:08.200 --> 00:30:08.600
 example

00:30:08.600 --> 00:30:08.779
 your

00:30:08.779 --> 00:30:09.079
 Christian

00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:09.420
 life

00:30:09.420 --> 00:30:09.680
 is

00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:10.720
 anthropocentric

00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:11.559
 man

00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:12.000
 centered

00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:13.079
 it's

00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:13.380
 all

00:30:13.380 --> 00:30:13.640
 about

00:30:13.640 --> 00:30:13.980
 you

00:30:13.980 --> 00:30:15.120
 fulfilling

00:30:15.120 --> 00:30:15.440
 your

00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:15.900
 life

00:30:15.900 --> 00:30:16.660
 meeting

00:30:16.660 --> 00:30:17.100
 your

00:30:17.100 --> 00:30:17.620
 perceived

00:30:17.620 --> 00:30:18.100
 needs

00:30:18.100 --> 00:30:18.799
 self

00:30:18.799 --> 00:30:19.720
 actualization

00:30:19.720 --> 00:30:20.480
 you see

00:30:20.480 --> 00:30:20.940
 Christ

00:30:20.940 --> 00:30:21.440
 as a

00:30:21.440 --> 00:30:22.039
 therapist

00:30:22.039 --> 00:30:22.940
 and not

00:30:22.940 --> 00:30:23.360
 as a

00:30:23.360 --> 00:30:23.740
 savior

00:30:23.740 --> 00:30:26.079
 you act

00:30:26.079 --> 00:30:26.400
 as if

00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:26.700
 God

00:30:26.700 --> 00:30:27.120
 exists

00:30:27.120 --> 00:30:27.519
 to make

00:30:27.519 --> 00:30:28.100
 you feel

00:30:28.100 --> 00:30:28.440
 better

00:30:28.440 --> 00:30:28.680
 about

00:30:28.680 --> 00:30:29.200
 yourself

00:30:29.200 --> 00:30:30.279
 but

00:30:30.279 --> 00:30:30.740
 instead

00:30:30.740 --> 00:30:31.579
 what

00:30:31.579 --> 00:30:32.120
 you need

00:30:32.120 --> 00:30:32.640
 is the

00:30:32.640 --> 00:30:33.160
 gospel

00:30:33.160 --> 00:30:33.720
 of

00:30:33.720 --> 00:30:34.040
 Jesus

00:30:34.040 --> 00:30:34.580
 Christ

00:30:34.580 --> 00:30:35.019
 to

00:30:35.019 --> 00:30:35.580
 remember

00:30:35.580 --> 00:30:35.940
 that

00:30:35.940 --> 00:30:36.160
 the

00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:36.580
 death

00:30:36.580 --> 00:30:36.820
 and

00:30:36.820 --> 00:30:37.300
 resurrection

00:30:37.300 --> 00:30:37.640
 of

00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:38.000
 Christ

00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:38.500
 is a

00:30:38.500 --> 00:30:39.000
 demonstration

00:30:39.000 --> 00:30:39.580
 not only

00:30:39.580 --> 00:30:39.920
 of his

00:30:39.920 --> 00:30:40.240
 love

00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:40.740
 for you

00:30:40.740 --> 00:30:41.700
 but also

00:30:41.700 --> 00:30:42.360
 of his

00:30:42.360 --> 00:30:43.100
 holiness

00:30:43.100 --> 00:30:44.640
 and justice

00:30:44.640 --> 00:30:46.019
 and how

00:30:46.019 --> 00:30:47.019
 unworthy

00:30:47.019 --> 00:30:47.920
 and sinful

00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:48.600
 you are

00:30:48.600 --> 00:30:49.200
 to receive

00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:49.480
 it

00:30:49.480 --> 00:30:52.540
 the gospel

00:30:52.540 --> 00:30:53.140
 exalts

00:30:53.140 --> 00:30:53.740
 the glory

00:30:53.740 --> 00:30:54.360
 of God's

00:30:54.360 --> 00:30:54.840
 grace

00:30:54.840 --> 00:30:56.259
 not your

00:30:56.259 --> 00:30:57.180
 deservingness

00:30:57.180 --> 00:31:00.519
 none of

00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:01.380
 these other

00:31:01.380 --> 00:31:01.940
 ways that I

00:31:01.940 --> 00:31:02.320
 mentioned

00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:03.159
 consists

00:31:03.159 --> 00:31:04.000
 of remembering

00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:05.159
 the crucified

00:31:05.159 --> 00:31:05.859
 and risen

00:31:05.859 --> 00:31:06.339
 Christ

00:31:06.339 --> 00:31:06.980
 but for

00:31:06.980 --> 00:31:07.359
 you

00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:07.819
 the way

00:31:07.819 --> 00:31:08.279
 you live

00:31:08.279 --> 00:31:08.939
 must be

00:31:08.939 --> 00:31:09.399
 different

00:31:09.399 --> 00:31:10.839
 you must

00:31:10.839 --> 00:31:11.379
 remember

00:31:11.379 --> 00:31:12.000
 the gospel

00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:13.240
 because that's

00:31:13.240 --> 00:31:13.819
 how we grow

00:31:13.819 --> 00:31:14.579
 and persevere

00:31:14.579 --> 00:31:15.220
 as Christians

00:31:15.220 --> 00:31:16.220
 Colossians 1

00:31:16.220 --> 00:31:17.279
 21 to 23

00:31:17.279 --> 00:31:17.939
 puts it this

00:31:17.939 --> 00:31:18.139
 way

00:31:18.139 --> 00:31:18.980
 and you

00:31:18.980 --> 00:31:19.500
 who once

00:31:19.500 --> 00:31:20.259
 were alienated

00:31:20.259 --> 00:31:20.839
 in a hostile

00:31:20.839 --> 00:31:21.439
 in mind

00:31:21.439 --> 00:31:22.139
 doing evil

00:31:22.139 --> 00:31:22.579
 deeds

00:31:22.579 --> 00:31:23.339
 Christ

00:31:23.339 --> 00:31:23.879
 has now

00:31:23.879 --> 00:31:24.639
 reconciled

00:31:24.639 --> 00:31:24.919
 in his

00:31:24.919 --> 00:31:25.379
 body of

00:31:25.379 --> 00:31:25.679
 flesh

00:31:25.679 --> 00:31:26.179
 by his

00:31:26.179 --> 00:31:26.539
 death

00:31:26.539 --> 00:31:27.460
 in order

00:31:27.460 --> 00:31:28.159
 to present

00:31:28.159 --> 00:31:28.819
 you holy

00:31:28.819 --> 00:31:30.019
 and blameless

00:31:30.019 --> 00:31:30.799
 and above

00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:31.339
 reproach

00:31:31.339 --> 00:31:32.059
 before him

00:31:32.059 --> 00:31:33.259
 if indeed

00:31:33.259 --> 00:31:34.059
 you continue

00:31:34.059 --> 00:31:34.839
 in the faith

00:31:34.839 --> 00:31:35.859
 stable and

00:31:35.859 --> 00:31:36.439
 steadfast

00:31:36.439 --> 00:31:37.359
 not shifting

00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:38.299
 from the hope

00:31:38.299 --> 00:31:39.359
 of the gospel

00:31:39.359 --> 00:31:40.519
 that you

00:31:40.519 --> 00:31:41.200
 heard

00:31:41.200 --> 00:31:43.740
 it is

00:31:43.740 --> 00:31:44.919
 not shifting

00:31:44.919 --> 00:31:45.799
 from the hope

00:31:45.799 --> 00:31:46.759
 of the gospel

00:31:46.759 --> 00:31:47.419
 that you

00:31:47.419 --> 00:31:48.119
 have already

00:31:48.119 --> 00:31:48.639
 heard

00:31:48.639 --> 00:31:50.259
 that's how

00:31:50.259 --> 00:31:51.240
 you persevere

00:31:51.240 --> 00:31:52.539
 that's how

00:31:52.539 --> 00:31:52.960
 you become

00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:53.679
 presented to

00:31:53.679 --> 00:31:54.279
 God holy

00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:55.039
 and blameless

00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:55.700
 and above

00:31:55.700 --> 00:31:56.359
 reproach

00:31:56.359 --> 00:31:59.299
 so is the

00:31:59.299 --> 00:31:59.699
 gospel

00:31:59.699 --> 00:32:01.259
 functionally

00:32:01.259 --> 00:32:02.459
 your hope

00:32:02.459 --> 00:32:03.099
 before God

00:32:03.099 --> 00:32:08.799
 or has the

00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:09.439
 gospel become

00:32:09.439 --> 00:32:10.079
 unessential

00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:10.899
 and irrelevant

00:32:10.899 --> 00:32:11.359
 to your

00:32:11.359 --> 00:32:11.959
 Christian life

00:32:11.959 --> 00:32:20.199
 and also

00:32:20.199 --> 00:32:20.539
 those who

00:32:20.539 --> 00:32:21.000
 remember

00:32:21.000 --> 00:32:21.319
 the word

00:32:21.319 --> 00:32:21.859
 of Christ

00:32:21.859 --> 00:32:23.240
 must retell

00:32:23.240 --> 00:32:23.559
 the word

00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:24.019
 of Christ

00:32:24.019 --> 00:32:25.379
 there is a

00:32:25.379 --> 00:32:26.019
 transmission

00:32:26.019 --> 00:32:26.660
 of testimony

00:32:26.660 --> 00:32:27.019
 here

00:32:27.019 --> 00:32:27.379
 from the

00:32:27.379 --> 00:32:27.839
 angels

00:32:27.839 --> 00:32:28.240
 first

00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:28.660
 reminding

00:32:28.660 --> 00:32:29.059
 the woman

00:32:29.059 --> 00:32:29.440
 of what

00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:29.700
 Jesus

00:32:29.700 --> 00:32:30.180
 had told

00:32:30.180 --> 00:32:30.480
 them

00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:31.440
 in verses

00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:31.879
 five to

00:32:31.879 --> 00:32:32.119
 eight

00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:32.759
 and from

00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:33.279
 the woman

00:32:33.279 --> 00:32:33.879
 to the

00:32:33.879 --> 00:32:34.400
 apostles

00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:34.940
 and the

00:32:34.940 --> 00:32:35.359
 disciples

00:32:35.359 --> 00:32:35.819
 in verse

00:32:35.819 --> 00:32:36.259
 nine

00:32:36.259 --> 00:32:37.339
 and then

00:32:37.339 --> 00:32:37.599
 it says

00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:37.900
 in verse

00:32:37.900 --> 00:32:38.259
 nine

00:32:38.259 --> 00:32:38.680
 that they

00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:39.639
 told all

00:32:39.639 --> 00:32:40.379
 these things

00:32:40.379 --> 00:32:40.819
 to the

00:32:40.819 --> 00:32:41.279
 eleven

00:32:41.279 --> 00:32:41.779
 which is

00:32:41.779 --> 00:32:42.220
 no longer

00:32:42.220 --> 00:32:42.579
 twelve

00:32:42.579 --> 00:32:42.940
 but eleven

00:32:42.940 --> 00:32:43.559
 because Judas

00:32:43.559 --> 00:32:44.440
 the betrayer

00:32:44.440 --> 00:32:44.879
 is gone

00:32:44.879 --> 00:32:45.900
 and to all

00:32:45.900 --> 00:32:46.240
 the rest

00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:46.559
 and then

00:32:46.559 --> 00:32:47.019
 later in

00:32:47.019 --> 00:32:47.680
 verse 14

00:32:47.680 --> 00:32:48.339
 we see

00:32:48.339 --> 00:32:48.980
 two of

00:32:48.980 --> 00:32:49.579
 the disciples

00:32:49.579 --> 00:32:50.879
 talking with

00:32:50.879 --> 00:32:51.339
 each other

00:32:51.339 --> 00:32:51.920
 about all

00:32:51.920 --> 00:32:52.480
 these things

00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:52.799
 that had

00:32:52.799 --> 00:32:53.160
 happened

00:32:53.160 --> 00:32:53.700
 so there's

00:32:53.700 --> 00:32:54.700
 ongoing

00:32:54.700 --> 00:32:55.440
 transmission

00:32:55.440 --> 00:32:56.340
 of the

00:32:56.340 --> 00:32:56.920
 good news

00:32:56.920 --> 00:32:57.380
 of Jesus

00:32:57.380 --> 00:32:57.900
 Christ's

00:32:57.900 --> 00:32:58.220
 death and

00:32:58.220 --> 00:32:58.640
 resurrection

00:32:58.640 --> 00:32:59.220
 throughout

00:32:59.220 --> 00:33:00.340
 chapter 24

00:33:00.340 --> 00:33:02.420
 because Christians

00:33:02.420 --> 00:33:03.640
 are witnesses

00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:04.100
 of Jesus

00:33:04.100 --> 00:33:04.539
 Christ

00:33:04.539 --> 00:33:06.140
 we bear

00:33:06.140 --> 00:33:06.759
 witness

00:33:06.759 --> 00:33:07.380
 to his

00:33:07.380 --> 00:33:07.700
 death

00:33:07.700 --> 00:33:08.420
 and resurrection

00:33:08.420 --> 00:33:09.360
 that's why

00:33:09.360 --> 00:33:10.019
 we're here

00:33:10.019 --> 00:33:13.279
 transmission

00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:14.340
 is essential

00:33:14.340 --> 00:33:15.100
 because unless

00:33:15.100 --> 00:33:15.799
 the witnesses

00:33:15.799 --> 00:33:16.759
 retell the

00:33:16.759 --> 00:33:17.120
 good news

00:33:17.120 --> 00:33:17.600
 of Jesus

00:33:17.600 --> 00:33:18.700
 no one

00:33:18.700 --> 00:33:19.259
 will hear

00:33:19.259 --> 00:33:19.860
 and believe

00:33:19.860 --> 00:33:20.180
 it

00:33:20.180 --> 00:33:21.299
 notice

00:33:21.299 --> 00:33:21.320
 notice

00:33:21.320 --> 00:33:21.640
 how

00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:21.960
 Luke

00:33:21.960 --> 00:33:22.660
 emphasizes

00:33:22.660 --> 00:33:22.940
 this

00:33:22.940 --> 00:33:23.160
 it's

00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:23.440
 not

00:33:23.440 --> 00:33:23.759
 when

00:33:23.759 --> 00:33:23.940
 the

00:33:23.940 --> 00:33:24.240
 woman

00:33:24.240 --> 00:33:24.720
 see

00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:24.960
 the

00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:25.220
 empty

00:33:25.220 --> 00:33:25.539
 tomb

00:33:25.539 --> 00:33:25.700
 that

00:33:25.700 --> 00:33:25.880
 they

00:33:25.880 --> 00:33:26.340
 believe

00:33:26.340 --> 00:33:28.160
 did you

00:33:28.160 --> 00:33:28.360
 guys

00:33:28.360 --> 00:33:28.820
 see

00:33:28.820 --> 00:33:29.100
 that

00:33:29.100 --> 00:33:30.120
 sometimes

00:33:30.120 --> 00:33:30.360
 we

00:33:30.360 --> 00:33:30.580
 think

00:33:30.580 --> 00:33:30.860
 oh man

00:33:30.860 --> 00:33:31.259
 if only

00:33:31.259 --> 00:33:31.539
 I had

00:33:31.539 --> 00:33:31.820
 a chance

00:33:31.820 --> 00:33:32.080
 to see

00:33:32.080 --> 00:33:32.240
 the

00:33:32.240 --> 00:33:32.440
 empty

00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:32.660
 tomb

00:33:32.660 --> 00:33:33.000
 with my

00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:33.220
 own

00:33:33.220 --> 00:33:33.420
 two

00:33:33.420 --> 00:33:33.660
 eyes

00:33:33.660 --> 00:33:33.960
 and I

00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:34.080
 would

00:33:34.080 --> 00:33:34.380
 believe

00:33:34.380 --> 00:33:34.620
 in the

00:33:34.620 --> 00:33:35.019
 resurrection

00:33:35.019 --> 00:33:35.799
 no

00:33:35.799 --> 00:33:36.000
 they

00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:36.220
 don't

00:33:36.220 --> 00:33:36.539
 believe

00:33:36.539 --> 00:33:36.680
 it

00:33:36.680 --> 00:33:36.860
 after

00:33:36.860 --> 00:33:37.039
 they

00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:37.200
 see

00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:37.360
 the

00:33:37.360 --> 00:33:37.560
 empty

00:33:37.560 --> 00:33:37.940
 tomb

00:33:37.940 --> 00:33:40.019
 they

00:33:40.019 --> 00:33:40.400
 believe

00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:40.560
 it

00:33:40.560 --> 00:33:40.860
 after

00:33:40.860 --> 00:33:41.039
 they

00:33:41.039 --> 00:33:41.600
 hear

00:33:41.600 --> 00:33:42.440
 the

00:33:42.440 --> 00:33:42.620
 good

00:33:42.620 --> 00:33:43.060
 news

00:33:43.060 --> 00:33:45.480
 and

00:33:45.480 --> 00:33:45.640
 this

00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:45.759
 is

00:33:45.759 --> 00:33:46.259
 consistent

00:33:46.259 --> 00:33:46.519
 with

00:33:46.519 --> 00:33:46.840
 Luke's

00:33:46.840 --> 00:33:47.240
 emphasis

00:33:47.240 --> 00:33:47.519
 Luke

00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:47.940
 11

00:33:47.940 --> 00:33:48.380
 29

00:33:48.380 --> 00:33:48.819
 32

00:33:48.819 --> 00:33:49.059
 where

00:33:49.059 --> 00:33:49.359
 Jesus

00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:49.720
 said

00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:50.299
 no

00:33:50.299 --> 00:33:50.920
 sign

00:33:50.920 --> 00:33:51.140
 will

00:33:51.140 --> 00:33:51.299
 be

00:33:51.299 --> 00:33:51.640
 given

00:33:51.640 --> 00:33:52.380
 except

00:33:52.380 --> 00:33:52.680
 the

00:33:52.680 --> 00:33:53.180
 sign

00:33:53.180 --> 00:33:53.480
 of

00:33:53.480 --> 00:33:54.059
 Jonah

00:33:54.059 --> 00:33:54.620
 in

00:33:54.620 --> 00:33:54.799
 that

00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:55.460
 context

00:33:55.460 --> 00:33:55.759
 he's

00:33:55.759 --> 00:33:56.140
 referring

00:33:56.140 --> 00:33:56.440
 to

00:33:56.440 --> 00:33:56.660
 the

00:33:56.660 --> 00:33:57.140
 preaching

00:33:57.140 --> 00:33:57.359
 of

00:33:57.359 --> 00:33:57.620
 Jonah

00:33:57.620 --> 00:33:58.039
 which

00:33:58.039 --> 00:33:58.359
 became

00:33:58.359 --> 00:33:58.539
 a

00:33:58.539 --> 00:33:58.880
 sign

00:33:58.880 --> 00:33:59.019
 to

00:33:59.019 --> 00:33:59.160
 the

00:33:59.160 --> 00:33:59.460
 people

00:33:59.460 --> 00:33:59.640
 of

00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:00.819
 Nineveh

00:34:00.819 --> 00:34:01.519
 so

00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:01.940
 likewise

00:34:01.940 --> 00:34:02.259
 it's

00:34:02.259 --> 00:34:02.420
 the

00:34:02.420 --> 00:34:02.920
 preaching

00:34:02.920 --> 00:34:03.140
 the

00:34:03.140 --> 00:34:03.660
 proclamation

00:34:03.660 --> 00:34:04.140

00:37:35.539 --> 00:37:37.059
 half

00:37:37.059 --> 00:37:37.659
 frantic

00:37:37.659 --> 00:37:38.360
 self

00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:38.900
 deceived

00:37:38.900 --> 00:37:39.539
 woman

00:37:39.539 --> 00:37:43.180
 so

00:37:43.180 --> 00:37:43.380
 it

00:37:43.380 --> 00:37:43.539
 would

00:37:43.539 --> 00:37:43.680
 have

00:37:43.680 --> 00:37:43.820
 been

00:37:43.820 --> 00:37:43.980
 a

00:37:43.980 --> 00:37:44.280
 point

00:37:44.280 --> 00:37:44.420
 of

00:37:44.420 --> 00:37:45.019
 embarrassment

00:37:45.019 --> 00:37:45.519
 in

00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:45.680
 the

00:37:45.680 --> 00:37:45.980
 ancient

00:37:45.980 --> 00:37:46.460
 world

00:37:46.460 --> 00:37:47.099
 that

00:37:47.099 --> 00:37:47.300
 the

00:37:47.300 --> 00:37:47.680
 first

00:37:47.680 --> 00:37:48.180
 witnesses

00:37:48.180 --> 00:37:48.460
 of

00:37:48.460 --> 00:37:48.780
 Christ

00:37:48.780 --> 00:37:49.320
 resurrection

00:37:49.320 --> 00:37:49.720
 were

00:37:49.720 --> 00:37:50.099
 women

00:37:50.099 --> 00:37:50.960
 but

00:37:50.960 --> 00:37:51.440
 none

00:37:51.440 --> 00:37:51.599
 of

00:37:51.599 --> 00:37:51.739
 the

00:37:51.739 --> 00:37:52.119
 gospel

00:37:52.119 --> 00:37:52.639
 writers

00:37:52.639 --> 00:37:52.920
 try

00:37:52.920 --> 00:37:53.079
 to

00:37:53.079 --> 00:37:53.519
 hide

00:37:53.519 --> 00:37:53.980
 or

00:37:53.980 --> 00:37:54.500
 minimize

00:37:54.500 --> 00:37:54.940
 this

00:37:54.940 --> 00:37:55.339
 fact

00:37:55.339 --> 00:37:56.500
 and

00:37:56.500 --> 00:37:56.619
 I

00:37:56.619 --> 00:37:56.819
 think

00:37:56.819 --> 00:37:57.059
 this

00:37:57.059 --> 00:37:57.279
 is

00:37:57.279 --> 00:37:57.839
 evidence

00:37:57.839 --> 00:37:58.119
 of

00:37:58.119 --> 00:37:58.299
 the

00:37:58.299 --> 00:37:59.039
 authenticity

00:37:59.039 --> 00:37:59.420
 of

00:37:59.940 --> 00:38:00.519
 accounts

00:38:00.519 --> 00:38:00.980
 and

00:38:00.980 --> 00:38:01.119
 of

00:38:01.119 --> 00:38:01.259
 the

00:38:01.259 --> 00:38:01.860

00:38:01.860 --> 00:38:02.279
 of

00:38:02.279 --> 00:38:02.500
 the

00:38:02.500 --> 00:38:02.920
 authors

00:38:02.920 --> 00:38:03.119
 who

00:38:03.119 --> 00:38:03.239
 are

00:38:03.239 --> 00:38:03.579
 writing

00:38:03.579 --> 00:38:03.860
 it

00:38:03.860 --> 00:38:04.839
 and

00:38:04.839 --> 00:38:04.960
 it

00:38:04.960 --> 00:38:05.319
 also

00:38:05.319 --> 00:38:05.819
 shows

00:38:05.819 --> 00:38:06.159
 that

00:38:06.159 --> 00:38:06.739
 in

00:38:06.739 --> 00:38:07.440
 Christ's

00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:07.799
 economy

00:38:07.799 --> 00:38:08.039
 in

00:38:08.039 --> 00:38:08.199
 the

00:38:08.199 --> 00:38:08.619
 divine

00:38:08.619 --> 00:38:09.159

00:38:10.679 --> 00:38:11.119
 women

00:38:11.119 --> 00:38:11.579
 are

00:38:11.579 --> 00:38:12.000
 called

00:38:12.000 --> 00:38:12.219
 to

00:38:12.219 --> 00:38:12.480
 be

00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:13.000
 children

00:38:13.000 --> 00:38:13.239
 of

00:38:13.239 --> 00:38:13.500
 God

00:38:13.500 --> 00:38:13.900
 and

00:38:13.900 --> 00:38:14.400
 witnesses

00:38:14.900 --> 00:38:15.319
 Christ

00:38:15.319 --> 00:38:15.719
 to

00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:16.099
 share

00:38:16.099 --> 00:38:16.299
 the

 good

00:38:16.599 --> 00:38:16.940
 news

00:38:16.940 --> 00:38:17.099
 of

00:38:17.099 --> 00:38:17.400
 Jesus

00:38:17.400 --> 00:38:18.000
 with

00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:18.219
 their

00:38:18.219 --> 00:38:18.579
 neighbors

00:38:18.579 --> 00:38:18.760
 and

00:38:18.760 --> 00:38:18.940
 with

00:38:18.940 --> 00:38:19.119
 the

00:38:19.119 --> 00:38:19.500
 world

00:38:19.500 --> 00:38:24.260
 but

00:38:24.260 --> 00:38:24.800
 unfortunately

00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:27.039
 verse 11

00:38:27.039 --> 00:38:27.559
 says that

00:38:27.559 --> 00:38:28.159
 these words

00:38:28.159 --> 00:38:28.460
 of the

00:38:28.460 --> 00:38:28.679
 woman

00:38:28.679 --> 00:38:29.079
 seemed

00:38:29.079 --> 00:38:29.260
 to

00:38:29.260 --> 00:38:29.599
 them

00:38:29.599 --> 00:38:29.840
 the

00:38:29.840 --> 00:38:30.159
 apostles

00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:30.400
 and the

00:38:30.400 --> 00:38:30.519
 other

00:38:30.519 --> 00:38:31.000
 disciples

00:38:31.000 --> 00:38:31.179
 an

00:38:31.179 --> 00:38:31.639
 idle

00:38:31.639 --> 00:38:32.019
 tale

00:38:32.019 --> 00:38:33.380
 man

00:38:33.380 --> 00:38:33.519
 I'm

00:38:33.519 --> 00:38:33.679
 thinking

00:38:33.679 --> 00:38:33.900
 about

00:38:33.900 --> 00:38:34.579
 apostle

00:38:34.579 --> 00:38:34.960
 James

00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:35.159
 at

00:38:35.159 --> 00:38:35.380
 least

00:38:35.380 --> 00:38:35.559
 he

00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:35.699
 should

00:38:35.699 --> 00:38:35.800
 have

00:38:35.800 --> 00:38:35.960
 listened

00:38:35.960 --> 00:38:36.079
 to

00:38:36.079 --> 00:38:36.219
 his

00:38:36.219 --> 00:38:36.480
 mother

00:38:36.480 --> 00:38:38.579
 they

00:38:38.579 --> 00:38:38.679
 did

00:38:38.679 --> 00:38:38.840
 not

00:38:38.840 --> 00:38:39.159
 believe

00:38:39.159 --> 00:38:39.480
 them

00:38:39.480 --> 00:38:42.500
 the

00:38:42.500 --> 00:38:42.740
 word

00:38:42.740 --> 00:38:43.280
 translated

00:38:43.280 --> 00:38:43.639
 idle

00:38:43.639 --> 00:38:43.960
 tale

00:38:43.960 --> 00:38:44.300
 is a

00:38:44.300 --> 00:38:44.559
 Greek

00:38:44.559 --> 00:38:44.840
 word

00:38:44.840 --> 00:38:45.099
 that

00:38:45.099 --> 00:38:45.880
 usually

00:38:45.880 --> 00:38:46.639
 describes

00:38:46.639 --> 00:38:48.099
 a

00:38:48.099 --> 00:38:48.679
 delirious

00:38:48.679 --> 00:38:49.039
 talk

00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:49.199
 of

00:38:49.199 --> 00:38:49.420
 really

00:38:49.420 --> 00:38:49.760
 sick

00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:50.139
 people

00:38:50.139 --> 00:38:51.539
 almost

00:38:51.539 --> 00:38:51.719
 a

00:38:51.719 --> 00:38:52.380
 hallucination

00:38:52.380 --> 00:38:52.559
 a

00:38:52.559 --> 00:38:53.159
 delusion

00:38:53.159 --> 00:38:54.860
 delirium

00:38:54.860 --> 00:38:56.300
 nonsense

00:38:56.300 --> 00:38:58.260
 and

00:38:58.260 --> 00:38:58.440
 this

00:38:58.440 --> 00:38:58.599
 should

00:38:58.599 --> 00:38:58.940
 correct

00:38:58.940 --> 00:38:59.219
 any

00:38:59.219 --> 00:38:59.659
 mistaken

00:38:59.659 --> 00:39:00.099
 assumption

00:39:00.099 --> 00:39:00.380
 that

00:39:00.380 --> 00:39:00.619
 modern

00:39:00.619 --> 00:39:00.860
 people

00:39:00.860 --> 00:39:01.079
 might

00:39:01.079 --> 00:39:01.360
 have

00:39:01.360 --> 00:39:01.500
 that

00:39:01.500 --> 00:39:01.719
 people

00:39:01.719 --> 00:39:01.840
 in

00:39:01.840 --> 00:39:01.940
 the

00:39:01.940 --> 00:39:02.179
 ancient

00:39:02.179 --> 00:39:02.480
 world

00:39:02.480 --> 00:39:02.920
 believe

00:39:02.920 --> 00:39:03.159
 in

00:39:03.159 --> 00:39:03.579
 things

00:39:03.579 --> 00:39:03.840
 like

00:39:03.840 --> 00:39:03.980
 the

00:39:03.980 --> 00:39:04.380
 resurrection

00:39:04.380 --> 00:39:04.980
 only

00:39:04.980 --> 00:39:05.280
 because

00:39:05.280 --> 00:39:05.460
 they

00:39:05.460 --> 00:39:05.579
 were

00:39:05.579 --> 00:39:05.800
 more

00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:06.340
 gullible

00:39:06.340 --> 00:39:06.820
 and

00:39:06.820 --> 00:39:07.220
 prone

00:39:07.220 --> 00:39:07.440
 to

00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:07.720
 believe

00:39:07.720 --> 00:39:07.840
 in

00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:08.640
 fantastical

00:39:08.640 --> 00:39:09.200
 stories

00:39:09.200 --> 00:39:10.260
 no

00:39:10.260 --> 00:39:10.579
 that's

00:39:10.579 --> 00:39:10.720
 not

00:39:10.720 --> 00:39:10.880
 the

00:39:10.880 --> 00:39:11.320
 case

00:39:11.320 --> 00:39:12.740
 in

00:39:12.740 --> 00:39:13.100
 what

00:39:13.100 --> 00:39:13.579
 age

00:39:13.579 --> 00:39:13.700
 of

00:39:13.700 --> 00:39:13.920
 human

00:39:13.920 --> 00:39:14.220
 history

00:39:14.220 --> 00:39:14.480
 was

00:39:14.480 --> 00:39:14.920
 resurrection

00:39:14.920 --> 00:39:15.360
 ever

00:39:15.360 --> 00:39:15.579
 a

00:39:15.579 --> 00:39:15.880
 normal

00:39:15.880 --> 00:39:16.160
 day

00:39:16.160 --> 00:39:16.260
 to

00:39:16.260 --> 00:39:16.400
 day

00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:16.780
 thing

00:39:16.780 --> 00:39:19.039
 it

00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:19.160
 was

00:39:19.160 --> 00:39:19.400
 hard

00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:19.559
 for

00:39:19.559 --> 00:39:19.700
 them

00:39:19.700 --> 00:39:19.840
 to

00:39:19.840 --> 00:39:20.200
 believe

00:39:20.200 --> 00:39:22.660
 just

00:39:22.660 --> 00:39:22.820
 as

00:39:22.820 --> 00:39:22.980
 it's

00:39:22.980 --> 00:39:23.260
 difficult

00:39:23.260 --> 00:39:23.460
 for

00:39:23.460 --> 00:39:23.640
 many

00:39:23.640 --> 00:39:23.900
 people

00:39:23.900 --> 00:39:24.220
 today

00:39:24.220 --> 00:39:26.019
 but

00:39:26.019 --> 00:39:26.160
 we

00:39:26.160 --> 00:39:26.440
 must

00:39:26.440 --> 00:39:26.880
 believe

00:39:26.880 --> 00:39:28.200
 and

00:39:28.200 --> 00:39:28.380
 this

00:39:28.380 --> 00:39:28.720
 passage

00:39:28.720 --> 00:39:29.480
 contrasts

00:39:29.480 --> 00:39:29.600
 the

00:39:29.600 --> 00:39:30.039
 faith

00:39:30.039 --> 00:39:30.200
 of

00:39:30.200 --> 00:39:30.320
 the

00:39:30.320 --> 00:39:30.620
 woman

00:39:30.620 --> 00:39:31.460
 with

00:39:31.460 --> 00:39:31.620
 the

00:39:31.620 --> 00:39:32.220
 unbelief

00:39:32.220 --> 00:39:32.380
 of

00:39:32.380 --> 00:39:32.500
 the

00:39:32.500 --> 00:39:32.960
 apostles

 exhorts

00:39:34.180 --> 00:39:34.400
 us

00:39:34.400 --> 00:39:34.579
 to

00:39:34.579 --> 00:39:35.200
 believe

00:39:35.200 --> 00:39:35.440
 the

00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:35.740
 good

00:39:35.739 --> 00:39:36.119
 news

00:39:36.119 --> 00:39:36.500
 that

00:39:36.500 --> 00:39:36.879
 Jesus

00:39:36.879 --> 00:39:37.399
 Christ

00:39:37.399 --> 00:39:37.619
 was

00:39:37.619 --> 00:39:38.059
 delivered

00:39:38.059 --> 00:39:38.899
 crucified

00:39:38.899 --> 00:39:39.339
 and

00:39:39.339 --> 00:39:39.819
 raised

00:39:39.819 --> 00:39:40.000
 to

00:39:40.000 --> 00:39:40.179
 give

00:39:40.179 --> 00:39:40.359
 us

00:39:40.359 --> 00:39:40.759
 life

00:39:40.759 --> 00:39:42.159
 and

00:39:42.159 --> 00:39:42.359
 this

00:39:42.359 --> 00:39:42.839
 resurrection

00:39:42.839 --> 00:39:43.319
 is an

00:39:43.319 --> 00:39:43.939
 essential

00:39:43.939 --> 00:39:44.519
 element

00:39:44.519 --> 00:39:44.819
 of our

00:39:44.819 --> 00:39:45.179
 faith

00:39:45.179 --> 00:39:47.179
 apart from

00:39:47.179 --> 00:39:47.539
 Jesus'

00:39:47.539 --> 00:39:48.219
 resurrection

00:39:48.219 --> 00:39:48.759
 there is

00:39:48.759 --> 00:39:49.179
 no

00:39:49.179 --> 00:39:49.899
 salvation

00:39:49.899 --> 00:39:50.639
 for

00:39:50.639 --> 00:39:51.099
 sinners

00:39:51.099 --> 00:39:52.299
 and

00:39:52.299 --> 00:39:52.319
 and

00:39:52.319 --> 00:39:52.500
 that's

00:39:52.500 --> 00:39:55.239
 and

00:39:55.239 --> 00:39:55.940
 and

00:39:55.940 --> 00:39:55.960
 and

00:39:55.960 --> 00:39:56.099
 if

00:39:56.099 --> 00:39:56.539
 Christ

00:39:56.539 --> 00:39:57.159
 has

00:39:57.159 --> 00:39:57.480
 not

00:39:57.480 --> 00:39:57.759
 been

00:39:57.759 --> 00:39:58.299
 raised

00:39:58.299 --> 00:39:58.839
 then

00:39:58.839 --> 00:39:59.039
 our

00:39:59.039 --> 00:39:59.539
 preaching

00:39:59.539 --> 00:39:59.920
 is

00:39:59.920 --> 00:40:00.159
 in

00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:00.519
 vain

00:40:00.519 --> 00:40:01.000
 and

00:40:01.000 --> 00:40:01.239
 your

00:40:01.239 --> 00:40:01.719
 faith

00:40:01.719 --> 00:40:01.940
 is

00:40:01.940 --> 00:40:02.119
 in

00:40:02.119 --> 00:40:02.400
 vain

00:40:02.400 --> 00:40:03.279
 and

00:40:03.279 --> 00:40:03.420
 if

00:40:03.420 --> 00:40:03.799
 Christ

00:40:03.799 --> 00:40:04.000
 has

00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:04.199
 not

00:40:04.199 --> 00:40:04.400
 been

00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:04.880
 raised

00:40:04.880 --> 00:40:05.339
 your

00:40:05.339 --> 00:40:05.839
 faith

00:40:05.839 --> 00:40:06.059
 is

00:40:06.059 --> 00:40:06.819
 futile

00:40:06.819 --> 00:40:07.039
 and

00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:07.159
 you

00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:07.319
 are

00:40:07.319 --> 00:40:07.779
 still

00:40:07.779 --> 00:40:08.380
 in

00:40:08.380 --> 00:40:08.599
 your

00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:09.219
 sins

00:40:09.219 --> 00:40:11.420
 if

00:40:11.420 --> 00:40:11.799
 Christ

00:40:11.799 --> 00:40:12.000
 has

00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:12.219
 not

00:40:12.219 --> 00:40:12.420
 been

00:40:12.420 --> 00:40:12.699
 raised

00:40:12.699 --> 00:40:12.860
 if

00:40:12.860 --> 00:40:12.960
 he

00:40:12.960 --> 00:40:13.199
 just

00:40:13.199 --> 00:40:13.699
 died

00:40:13.699 --> 00:40:14.400
 that

00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:14.619
 his

00:40:14.619 --> 00:40:15.219
 death

00:40:15.219 --> 00:40:15.699
 his

00:40:15.699 --> 00:40:16.360
 atoning

00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:16.759
 death

00:40:16.759 --> 00:40:16.960
 would

00:40:16.960 --> 00:40:17.279
 not

00:40:17.279 --> 00:40:17.619
 be

00:40:17.619 --> 00:40:18.259
 effective

00:40:18.260 --> 00:40:20.020
 we

00:40:20.020 --> 00:40:20.140
 would

00:40:20.140 --> 00:40:20.360
 still

00:40:20.360 --> 00:40:20.500
 be

00:40:20.500 --> 00:40:20.600
 in

00:40:20.600 --> 00:40:20.760
 our

00:40:20.760 --> 00:40:21.200
 sins

00:40:21.200 --> 00:40:22.820
 so

00:40:22.820 --> 00:40:22.980
 it's

00:40:22.980 --> 00:40:23.060
 a

00:40:23.060 --> 00:40:23.340
 mistake

00:40:23.340 --> 00:40:23.500
 to

00:40:23.500 --> 00:40:23.700
 think

00:40:23.700 --> 00:40:23.880
 that

00:40:23.880 --> 00:40:24.140
 Christ

00:40:24.140 --> 00:40:24.540
 death

00:40:24.540 --> 00:40:24.880
 alone

00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:25.080
 is

00:40:25.080 --> 00:40:25.540
 sufficient

00:40:25.540 --> 00:40:25.880
 for

00:40:25.880 --> 00:40:26.120
 our

00:40:26.120 --> 00:40:26.540
 redemption

00:40:26.540 --> 00:40:26.860
 it's

00:40:26.860 --> 00:40:27.300
 not

00:40:27.300 --> 00:40:29.020
 as

00:40:29.020 --> 00:40:29.420
 Romans

00:40:29.420 --> 00:40:30.100
 425

00:40:30.100 --> 00:40:30.380
 says

00:40:30.380 --> 00:40:30.700
 Christ

00:40:30.700 --> 00:40:30.940
 was

00:40:30.940 --> 00:40:31.360
 delivered

00:40:31.360 --> 00:40:31.720
 up

00:40:31.720 --> 00:40:31.960
 for

00:40:31.960 --> 00:40:32.120
 our

00:40:32.120 --> 00:40:32.780
 trespasses

00:40:32.780 --> 00:40:33.240
 and

00:40:33.240 --> 00:40:33.800
 raised

00:40:33.800 --> 00:40:33.980
 for

00:40:33.980 --> 00:40:34.140
 our

00:40:34.140 --> 00:40:34.740
 justification

00:40:34.740 --> 00:40:35.620
 Romans

 we

 to

 God

 we

 are

 we

 be

 life

00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:22.520
 to

00:41:22.520 --> 00:41:22.920
 anyone

00:41:22.920 --> 00:41:23.640
 and

00:41:23.640 --> 00:41:23.800
 it's

00:41:23.800 --> 00:41:24.160
 because

00:41:24.160 --> 00:41:24.600
 Christ

00:41:24.600 --> 00:41:25.260
 conquered

00:41:25.260 --> 00:41:25.680
 death

00:41:25.680 --> 00:41:26.460
 and

00:41:26.460 --> 00:41:26.840
 that

00:41:26.840 --> 00:41:27.120
 Luke

00:41:27.120 --> 00:41:27.640
 calls

00:41:27.640 --> 00:41:27.900
 him

00:41:27.900 --> 00:41:28.560
 this

00:41:28.560 --> 00:41:28.640
 is

00:41:28.640 --> 00:41:29.000
 amazing

00:41:29.000 --> 00:41:29.200
 the

00:41:29.200 --> 00:41:29.800
 Lord

00:41:29.800 --> 00:41:30.780
 Jesus

00:41:30.780 --> 00:41:32.640
 he

00:41:32.640 --> 00:41:32.960
 says

00:41:32.960 --> 00:41:33.120
 in

00:41:33.120 --> 00:41:33.340
 verse

00:41:33.340 --> 00:41:33.780
 three

00:41:33.780 --> 00:41:34.280
 when

00:41:34.280 --> 00:41:34.400
 they

00:41:34.400 --> 00:41:34.620
 went

00:41:34.620 --> 00:41:34.760
 in

00:41:34.760 --> 00:41:34.880
 they

00:41:34.880 --> 00:41:35.020
 did

00:41:35.020 --> 00:41:35.200
 not

00:41:35.200 --> 00:41:35.560
 find

00:41:35.560 --> 00:41:35.740
 the

00:41:35.740 --> 00:41:36.100
 body

00:41:36.100 --> 00:41:36.700
 of

00:41:36.700 --> 00:41:36.880
 the

00:41:36.880 --> 00:41:37.340
 Lord

00:41:37.340 --> 00:41:38.260
 Jesus

00:41:38.260 --> 00:41:39.260
 Jesus

00:41:39.260 --> 00:41:39.560
 has

00:41:39.560 --> 00:41:39.720
 been

00:41:39.720 --> 00:41:40.060
 called

00:41:40.060 --> 00:41:40.360
 Lord

00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:40.800
 before

00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:41.960
 but

00:41:41.960 --> 00:41:42.200
 it's

00:41:42.200 --> 00:41:42.440
 always

00:41:42.440 --> 00:41:42.680
 a little

00:41:42.680 --> 00:41:43.100
 ambiguous

00:41:43.100 --> 00:41:43.480
 because

00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:43.760
 that's

00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:44.520
 the same

00:41:44.520 --> 00:41:44.800
 word

00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:45.120
 that can

00:41:45.120 --> 00:41:45.420
 just

00:41:45.420 --> 00:41:46.620
 be used

00:41:46.620 --> 00:41:46.760
 to

00:41:46.760 --> 00:41:47.160
 generically

00:41:47.160 --> 00:41:47.480
 mean

00:41:47.480 --> 00:41:47.980
 sir

00:41:47.980 --> 00:41:49.260
 even

00:41:49.260 --> 00:41:49.400
 though

00:41:49.400 --> 00:41:49.500
 I

00:41:49.500 --> 00:41:49.639
 do

00:41:49.639 --> 00:41:50.059
 think

00:41:50.059 --> 00:41:50.840
 Luke

00:41:50.840 --> 00:41:51.380
 intends

00:41:51.380 --> 00:41:51.639
 it

00:41:51.639 --> 00:41:52.179
 with

00:41:52.179 --> 00:41:52.460
 more

00:41:52.460 --> 00:41:52.920
 theological

00:41:52.920 --> 00:41:53.280
 weight

00:41:53.280 --> 00:41:53.719
 often

00:41:53.719 --> 00:41:54.480
 throughout

00:41:54.480 --> 00:41:54.639
 the

00:41:54.639 --> 00:41:55.000
 gospel

00:41:55.000 --> 00:41:55.920
 and

00:41:55.920 --> 00:41:56.059
 of

00:41:56.059 --> 00:41:56.219
 course

00:41:56.219 --> 00:41:56.360
 the

00:41:56.360 --> 00:41:56.579
 name

00:41:56.579 --> 00:41:56.960
 Jesus

00:41:56.960 --> 00:41:57.219
 we've

00:41:57.219 --> 00:41:57.539
 seen

00:41:57.539 --> 00:41:58.019
 many

00:41:58.019 --> 00:41:58.440
 times

00:41:58.440 --> 00:41:58.900
 before

00:41:58.900 --> 00:41:59.280
 as

00:41:59.280 --> 00:41:59.559
 well

00:41:59.559 --> 00:41:59.980
 but

00:41:59.980 --> 00:42:00.199
 this

00:42:00.199 --> 00:42:00.539
 is

00:42:00.539 --> 00:42:00.880
 the

00:42:00.880 --> 00:42:01.500
 only

00:42:01.500 --> 00:42:02.119
 time

00:42:02.119 --> 00:42:02.880
 Luke

00:42:02.880 --> 00:42:03.340
 uses

00:42:03.340 --> 00:42:04.300
 this

00:42:04.300 --> 00:42:04.780
 title

00:42:04.780 --> 00:42:04.960
 it

00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:05.340
 combines

00:42:05.340 --> 00:42:05.519
 the

00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:05.719
 name

00:42:05.719 --> 00:42:05.860
 of

00:42:05.860 --> 00:42:06.139
 Jesus

00:42:06.139 --> 00:42:06.480
 with

00:42:06.480 --> 00:42:06.599
 the

00:42:06.599 --> 00:42:06.820
 word

00:42:06.820 --> 00:42:07.079
 Lord

00:42:07.079 --> 00:42:07.260
 to

00:42:07.260 --> 00:42:07.539
 form

00:42:07.539 --> 00:42:07.780
 this

00:42:07.780 --> 00:42:08.340
 exalted

00:42:08.340 --> 00:42:08.860
 title

00:42:08.860 --> 00:42:09.320
 the

00:42:09.320 --> 00:42:09.820
 Lord

00:42:09.820 --> 00:42:10.500
 Jesus

00:42:10.500 --> 00:42:10.719
 this

00:42:10.719 --> 00:42:10.780
 is

00:42:10.780 --> 00:42:10.900
 the

00:42:10.900 --> 00:42:11.119
 only

00:42:11.119 --> 00:42:11.460
 time

00:42:11.460 --> 00:42:11.599
 he

00:42:11.599 --> 00:42:11.860
 uses

00:42:11.860 --> 00:42:12.179
 that

00:42:12.179 --> 00:42:12.860
 but

00:42:12.860 --> 00:42:13.019
 then

00:42:13.019 --> 00:42:13.139
 in

00:42:13.139 --> 00:42:13.300
 his

00:42:13.300 --> 00:42:13.659
 sequel

00:42:13.659 --> 00:42:13.840
 the

 book

00:42:14.000 --> 00:42:14.139
 of

 Christ

00:42:18.360 --> 00:42:18.980
 ascension

00:42:18.980 --> 00:42:19.840
 Jesus

00:42:19.840 --> 00:42:20.059
 is

00:42:20.059 --> 00:42:20.360
 called

00:42:20.360 --> 00:42:20.599
 the

00:42:20.599 --> 00:42:20.920
 Lord

00:42:20.920 --> 00:42:21.500
 Jesus

00:42:21.500 --> 00:42:22.240
 18

00:42:22.240 --> 00:42:22.980
 times

00:42:22.980 --> 00:42:24.900
 it's

00:42:24.900 --> 00:42:25.159
 only

00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:25.719
 after

00:42:25.719 --> 00:42:26.059
 his

00:42:26.059 --> 00:42:26.519
 resurrection

00:42:26.519 --> 00:42:26.880
 that we

00:42:26.880 --> 00:42:27.260
 see

00:42:27.260 --> 00:42:27.880
 Jesus

00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:28.340
 as

00:42:28.340 --> 00:42:28.480
 the

00:42:28.480 --> 00:42:29.019
 exalted

00:42:29.019 --> 00:42:29.500
 Lord

00:42:29.500 --> 00:42:29.880
 that we

00:42:29.880 --> 00:42:30.159
 saw

00:42:30.159 --> 00:42:30.920
 only a

00:42:30.920 --> 00:42:31.260
 glimpse

00:42:31.260 --> 00:42:31.599
 of

00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:32.099
 during

00:42:32.099 --> 00:42:32.400
 his

00:42:32.400 --> 00:42:33.539
 transfiguration

00:42:33.539 --> 00:42:35.059
 he

00:42:35.059 --> 00:42:35.420
 is

00:42:35.420 --> 00:42:35.940
 now

 the

00:42:36.400 --> 00:42:36.820
 Lord

00:42:36.820 --> 00:42:37.340
 Jesus

00:42:37.340 --> 00:42:38.199
 who

00:42:38.199 --> 00:42:38.760
 demands

00:42:38.760 --> 00:42:39.079
 our

00:42:39.079 --> 00:42:39.639
 submission

 he's

00:42:41.300 --> 00:42:41.719
 Jesus

00:42:41.719 --> 00:42:42.000
 who

00:42:42.000 --> 00:42:42.159
 is

00:42:42.159 --> 00:42:42.599
 worthy

00:42:42.599 --> 00:42:43.159
 of

00:42:43.159 --> 00:42:43.360
 our

00:42:43.360 --> 00:42:43.920
 worship

00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:44.960
 he's

00:42:44.960 --> 00:42:45.099
 the

00:42:45.099 --> 00:42:45.340
 Lord

00:42:45.340 --> 00:42:45.699
 Jesus

00:42:45.699 --> 00:42:45.960
 who

00:42:45.960 --> 00:42:46.500
 rules

00:42:46.500 --> 00:42:46.980
 over

00:42:46.980 --> 00:42:47.280
 all

00:42:47.280 --> 00:42:47.880
 creation

00:42:47.880 --> 00:42:49.519
 yes

00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:49.820
 he was

00:42:49.820 --> 00:42:50.260
 treated

00:42:50.260 --> 00:42:50.980
 like the

00:42:50.980 --> 00:42:51.300
 scum

00:42:51.300 --> 00:42:51.559
 of the

00:42:51.559 --> 00:42:51.860
 earth

00:42:51.860 --> 00:42:52.340
 when he

00:42:52.340 --> 00:42:52.780
 was

00:42:52.780 --> 00:42:53.280
 alive

00:42:53.280 --> 00:42:54.079
 before

00:42:54.079 --> 00:42:54.280
 his

00:42:54.280 --> 00:42:54.940
 crucifixion

00:42:54.940 --> 00:42:55.680
 he was

00:42:55.680 --> 00:42:56.019
 treated

00:42:56.019 --> 00:42:56.380
 like a

00:42:56.380 --> 00:42:56.760
 criminal

00:42:56.760 --> 00:42:57.860
 he was

00:42:57.860 --> 00:42:58.240
 treated

00:42:58.240 --> 00:42:59.019
 like

00:42:59.019 --> 00:42:59.860
 rubbish

00:42:59.860 --> 00:43:01.740
 but

00:43:01.740 --> 00:43:02.360
 now

00:43:02.360 --> 00:43:03.039
 he's

00:43:03.039 --> 00:43:03.260
 the

00:43:03.260 --> 00:43:03.780
 Lord

00:43:03.780 --> 00:43:05.039
 Jesus

00:43:05.039 --> 00:43:06.140
 before

00:43:06.140 --> 00:43:06.440
 whom

00:43:06.440 --> 00:43:07.059
 every

00:43:07.059 --> 00:43:07.700
 knee

00:43:07.700 --> 00:43:08.099
 must

00:43:08.099 --> 00:43:08.539
 bow

00:43:08.539 --> 00:43:08.980
 and

00:43:08.980 --> 00:43:09.500
 every

00:43:09.500 --> 00:43:10.240
 tongue

00:43:10.240 --> 00:43:11.119
 confess

00:43:11.119 --> 00:43:11.760
 he

00:43:11.760 --> 00:43:12.000
 is

00:43:12.000 --> 00:43:12.559
 Lord

00:43:12.559 --> 00:43:15.360
 that's

00:43:15.360 --> 00:43:15.480
 the

00:43:15.480 --> 00:43:15.700
 God

00:43:15.700 --> 00:43:15.900
 we

00:43:15.900 --> 00:43:16.320
 serve

00:43:16.320 --> 00:43:19.220
 and

00:43:19.220 --> 00:43:19.400
 he

00:43:19.400 --> 00:43:19.580
 was

00:43:19.580 --> 00:43:20.080
 raised

00:43:20.080 --> 00:43:21.260
 bodily

00:43:21.260 --> 00:43:23.860
 there's

00:43:23.860 --> 00:43:24.019
 some

00:43:24.019 --> 00:43:24.420
 people

00:43:24.420 --> 00:43:24.900
 who

00:43:24.900 --> 00:43:25.280
 claim

00:43:25.280 --> 00:43:25.600
 to be

00:43:25.600 --> 00:43:26.000
 Christian

00:43:26.000 --> 00:43:26.980
 but

00:43:26.980 --> 00:43:27.140
 then

00:43:27.140 --> 00:43:27.380
 say

00:43:27.380 --> 00:43:27.580
 that

00:43:27.580 --> 00:43:27.880
 Jesus

00:43:27.880 --> 00:43:28.519
 resurrection

00:43:28.519 --> 00:43:28.880
 is

00:43:28.880 --> 00:43:29.740
 metaphorical

00:43:29.740 --> 00:43:30.420
 or

00:43:30.420 --> 00:43:30.880
 mystical

00:43:30.880 --> 00:43:32.039
 that

00:43:32.039 --> 00:43:32.240
 though

00:43:32.240 --> 00:43:32.380
 he

00:43:32.380 --> 00:43:32.559
 is

00:43:32.559 --> 00:43:33.039
 physically

00:43:33.039 --> 00:43:33.539
 dead

00:43:33.539 --> 00:43:33.920
 that

00:43:33.920 --> 00:43:34.120
 his

00:43:34.120 --> 00:43:34.620
 spirit

00:43:34.620 --> 00:43:34.940
 lives

00:43:34.940 --> 00:43:35.220
 among

00:43:35.220 --> 00:43:35.640
 us

00:43:35.640 --> 00:43:36.320
 or

00:43:36.320 --> 00:43:36.460
 that

00:43:36.460 --> 00:43:36.600
 though

00:43:36.600 --> 00:43:36.760
 he

00:43:36.760 --> 00:43:36.920
 is

00:43:36.920 --> 00:43:37.120
 dead

00:43:37.120 --> 00:43:37.360
 his

00:43:37.360 --> 00:43:37.860
 memory

00:43:37.860 --> 00:43:38.440
 lives

00:43:38.440 --> 00:43:39.480
 forever

00:43:39.480 --> 00:43:40.720
 but

00:43:40.720 --> 00:43:42.059
 that's

00:43:42.059 --> 00:43:42.780
 patronizing

00:43:42.780 --> 00:43:43.260
 nonsense

00:43:43.260 --> 00:43:45.220
 it

00:43:45.220 --> 00:43:45.540
 doesn't

00:43:45.540 --> 00:43:45.700
 even

00:43:45.700 --> 00:43:46.020
 take

00:43:46.020 --> 00:43:46.600
 seriously

00:43:46.600 --> 00:43:46.900
 the

00:43:46.900 --> 00:43:47.340
 actual

00:43:47.340 --> 00:43:47.720
 gospel

00:43:47.720 --> 00:43:48.140
 accounts

00:43:48.140 --> 00:43:48.300
 of

00:43:48.300 --> 00:43:48.420
 the

00:43:48.420 --> 00:43:48.840
 resurrection

00:43:48.840 --> 00:43:50.940
 there

00:43:50.940 --> 00:43:51.400
 was

00:43:51.400 --> 00:43:52.320
 no

00:43:52.320 --> 00:43:52.820
 body

00:43:52.820 --> 00:43:53.180
 there

00:43:53.180 --> 00:43:54.360
 it

00:43:54.360 --> 00:43:54.500
 was

00:43:54.500 --> 00:43:54.680
 an

00:43:54.680 --> 00:43:55.040
 empty

00:43:55.040 --> 00:43:55.580
 tomb

00:43:55.580 --> 00:43:56.140
 which

00:43:56.140 --> 00:43:56.360
 means

00:43:56.360 --> 00:43:56.800
 Jesus

00:43:56.800 --> 00:43:57.120
 was

00:43:57.120 --> 00:43:57.680
 raised

00:43:57.680 --> 00:43:58.560
 bodily

00:43:58.560 --> 00:43:59.960
 if

00:43:59.960 --> 00:44:00.360
 Christ

00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:00.560
 was

00:44:00.560 --> 00:44:00.800
 not

00:44:00.800 --> 00:44:01.080
 raised

00:44:01.080 --> 00:44:01.480
 bodily

00:44:01.480 --> 00:44:01.740
 that

00:44:01.740 --> 00:44:02.000
 means

00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:02.500
 death

00:44:02.500 --> 00:44:02.960
 still

00:44:02.960 --> 00:44:03.200
 has

00:44:03.200 --> 00:44:03.480
 not

00:44:03.480 --> 00:44:03.680
 been

00:44:03.680 --> 00:44:04.120
 defeated

00:44:04.120 --> 00:44:04.780
 the

00:44:04.780 --> 00:44:05.180
 effects

00:44:05.180 --> 00:44:05.360
 of

00:44:05.360 --> 00:44:05.660
 sin

00:44:05.660 --> 00:44:05.900
 has

00:44:05.900 --> 00:44:06.300
 not

00:44:06.300 --> 00:44:06.640
 been

00:44:06.640 --> 00:44:07.180
 reversed

00:44:07.180 --> 00:44:07.700
 if

00:44:07.700 --> 00:44:08.000
 Christ

00:44:08.000 --> 00:44:08.440
 bodily

00:44:08.440 --> 00:44:09.040
 resurrection

00:44:09.040 --> 00:44:09.740
 that

00:44:09.740 --> 00:44:10.040
 it's

00:44:10.040 --> 00:44:10.300
 his

00:44:10.300 --> 00:44:10.660
 bodily

00:44:10.660 --> 00:44:11.120
 resurrection

00:44:11.120 --> 00:44:11.400
 that's

00:44:11.400 --> 00:44:11.520
 the

00:44:11.520 --> 00:44:11.800
 basis

00:44:11.800 --> 00:44:12.060
 for

00:44:12.060 --> 00:44:12.340
 our

00:44:12.340 --> 00:44:12.680
 hope

00:44:12.679 --> 00:44:13.179
 that

00:44:13.179 --> 00:44:13.319
 in

00:44:13.319 --> 00:44:13.460
 the

00:44:13.460 --> 00:44:13.659
 future

00:44:13.659 --> 00:44:13.819
 we

00:44:13.819 --> 00:44:13.980
 would

00:44:13.980 --> 00:44:14.339
 have

00:44:14.339 --> 00:44:15.299
 resurrected

00:44:15.299 --> 00:44:15.839
 bodies

00:44:15.839 --> 00:44:18.480
 and

00:44:18.480 --> 00:44:18.899
 that's

00:44:18.899 --> 00:44:19.199
 really

00:44:19.199 --> 00:44:19.579
 what

00:44:19.579 --> 00:44:20.359
 baptism

00:44:20.359 --> 00:44:20.960
 represents

00:44:20.960 --> 00:44:21.219
 which

00:44:21.219 --> 00:44:21.599
 we have

00:44:21.599 --> 00:44:22.039
 the privilege

00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:22.460
 of doing

00:44:22.460 --> 00:44:22.679
 this

00:44:22.679 --> 00:44:23.000
 morning

00:44:23.000 --> 00:44:24.239
 baptism

00:44:24.239 --> 00:44:24.559
 in

00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:25.000
 water

00:44:25.000 --> 00:44:25.759
 which

00:44:25.759 --> 00:44:25.919
 is

00:44:25.919 --> 00:44:26.059
 the

00:44:26.059 --> 00:44:26.579
 initial

00:44:26.579 --> 00:44:27.039
 right

00:44:27.039 --> 00:44:27.419
 of

00:44:27.419 --> 00:44:27.839
 becoming

00:44:27.839 --> 00:44:28.019
 a

00:44:28.019 --> 00:44:28.359
 Christian

00:44:28.359 --> 00:44:28.919
 it

00:44:28.919 --> 00:44:29.679
 signifies

00:44:29.679 --> 00:44:30.000
 our

00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:30.460
 union

00:44:30.460 --> 00:44:30.960
 with

00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:31.440
 Jesus

00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:31.980
 in

00:44:31.980 --> 00:44:32.199
 his

00:44:32.199 --> 00:44:32.659
 death

00:44:32.659 --> 00:44:33.179
 and

00:44:33.179 --> 00:44:33.699
 resurrection

00:44:33.699 --> 00:44:35.099
 our

00:44:35.099 --> 00:44:35.799
 submersion

00:44:35.799 --> 00:44:35.980
 in

00:44:35.980 --> 00:44:36.299
 water

00:44:36.299 --> 00:44:36.919
 signifies

00:44:36.919 --> 00:44:37.159
 our

00:44:37.159 --> 00:44:37.579
 death

00:44:37.579 --> 00:44:38.299
 our

00:44:38.299 --> 00:44:38.619
 death

00:44:38.619 --> 00:44:38.819
 to

00:44:38.819 --> 00:44:39.139
 sin

00:44:39.139 --> 00:44:39.419
 our

00:44:39.419 --> 00:44:39.719
 death

00:44:39.719 --> 00:44:39.899
 to

00:44:39.899 --> 00:44:40.019
 our

00:44:40.019 --> 00:44:40.239
 former

00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:40.539
 life

00:44:40.539 --> 00:44:40.719
 our

00:44:40.719 --> 00:44:41.019
 death

00:44:41.019 --> 00:44:41.379
 to our

00:44:41.379 --> 00:44:41.919
 independence

00:44:41.919 --> 00:44:42.179
 and

00:44:42.179 --> 00:44:42.599
 sovereignty

00:44:42.599 --> 00:44:44.119
 and we

00:44:44.119 --> 00:44:44.839
 rise from

00:44:44.839 --> 00:44:45.139
 that

00:44:45.139 --> 00:44:46.319
 with new

00:44:46.319 --> 00:44:46.619
 life

00:44:46.619 --> 00:44:46.759
 in

00:44:46.759 --> 00:44:47.119
 Christ

00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:48.460
 we go

00:44:48.460 --> 00:44:48.900
 down

00:44:48.900 --> 00:44:49.279
 into the

00:44:49.279 --> 00:44:49.519
 water

00:44:49.519 --> 00:44:49.860
 with the

00:44:49.860 --> 00:44:50.339
 squalor

00:44:50.339 --> 00:44:50.639
 of our

00:44:50.639 --> 00:44:50.940
 sin

00:44:50.940 --> 00:44:51.960
 we emerge

00:44:51.960 --> 00:44:53.019
 washed

00:44:53.019 --> 00:44:53.360
 by the

00:44:53.360 --> 00:44:53.559
 blood

00:44:53.559 --> 00:44:53.719
 of

00:44:53.719 --> 00:44:54.159
 Christ

00:44:54.159 --> 00:44:55.980
 that's

00:44:55.980 --> 00:44:56.199
 what

00:44:56.199 --> 00:44:56.659
 baptism

00:44:56.659 --> 00:44:57.319
 signifies

00:44:57.319 --> 00:44:59.799
 and the

00:44:59.799 --> 00:45:00.159
 people who

00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:00.500
 are getting

00:45:00.500 --> 00:45:00.940
 baptized

00:45:00.940 --> 00:45:01.440

00:45:03.119 --> 00:45:03.360
 in

00:45:03.360 --> 00:45:03.619
 Jesus

00:45:03.619 --> 00:45:04.099
 that he

00:45:04.099 --> 00:45:04.880
 died

00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:05.860
 for them

00:45:05.860 --> 00:45:07.039
 and

00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:07.180
 they're

00:45:07.180 --> 00:45:07.480
 saying

00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:07.680

 I

00:45:07.860 --> 00:45:08.220

 Lord

 Jesus

00:45:12.720 --> 00:45:13.579
 I

00:45:13.579 --> 00:45:13.720

00:45:17.860 --> 00:45:18.059
 what

00:45:18.059 --> 00:45:18.220
 that

00:45:18.220 --> 00:45:18.579
