WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.800
 he will be glorified.

00:00:03.240 --> 00:00:06.400
 This hour has now come, says Jesus.

00:00:06.679 --> 00:00:07.219
 It's here.

00:00:07.339 --> 00:00:08.939
 It's right around the corner.

00:00:09.820 --> 00:00:12.919
 And it's here in John 12, verse 27,

00:00:13.620 --> 00:00:16.280
 that Jesus tells us plainly

00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:19.480
 what's going on in the depths of his heart

00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:24.100
 and what kinds of thoughts are in his mind.

00:00:24.940 --> 00:00:28.859
 John 12, verse 27, Jesus says,

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.399
 now my soul is troubled.

00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:35.320
 And what shall I say?

00:00:36.140 --> 00:00:38.200
 Father, save me from this hour.

00:00:43.820 --> 00:00:46.179
 Jesus is not often troubled by things.

00:00:47.240 --> 00:00:48.159
 Have you noticed this?

00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:52.879
 He's the one with wisdom for every situation,

00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:56.120
 with the answers for every question.

00:00:57.359 --> 00:00:59.200
 He's the one who is fearless.

00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:05.480
 The one who's completely unbothered by the storm on the sea

00:01:05.480 --> 00:01:08.620
 and even sleeping while his disciples were panicked

00:01:08.620 --> 00:01:09.980
 and afraid for their lives.

00:01:11.579 --> 00:01:14.420
 He seems to have no fear of the religious leaders.

00:01:14.420 --> 00:01:19.140
 even while his disciples were dreading coming back to Jerusalem,

00:01:19.900 --> 00:01:21.599
 thinking it might end badly for them,

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:24.400
 Jesus seemed fearless and unflinching,

00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:27.240
 going right up into Bethany

00:01:27.240 --> 00:01:29.700
 and now marching right into the city of Jerusalem.

00:01:31.700 --> 00:01:32.840
 Have you noticed this?

00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:36.960
 So now we can't help but take notice

00:01:36.960 --> 00:01:38.659
 when Jesus says here

00:01:38.659 --> 00:01:41.120
 that he is troubled.

00:01:42.620 --> 00:01:44.500
 The last time in John's gospel

00:01:44.500 --> 00:01:45.920
 that we saw Jesus troubled

00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:47.219
 was back in chapter 11

00:01:47.219 --> 00:01:50.439
 when Jesus met with Mary

00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:52.500
 after the death of her brother,

00:01:52.960 --> 00:01:53.460
 Lazarus.

00:01:53.459 --> 00:01:56.019
 He saw Mary weeping

00:01:56.019 --> 00:01:59.059
 and Mary's friends weeping with her

00:01:59.059 --> 00:02:01.419
 about Lazarus' death

00:02:01.419 --> 00:02:02.899
 and John told us there

00:02:02.899 --> 00:02:06.219
 that Jesus himself was deeply moved in spirit

00:02:06.219 --> 00:02:08.340
 and troubled.

00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:10.639
 Same word.

00:02:11.479 --> 00:02:12.579
 So troubled, in fact,

00:02:12.659 --> 00:02:14.859
 that Jesus himself burst into tears

00:02:14.859 --> 00:02:17.419
 and wept with her, with them.

00:02:17.419 --> 00:02:20.459
 But now here again,

00:02:21.139 --> 00:02:23.519
 Jesus makes it visible on the outside

00:02:23.519 --> 00:02:26.019
 what's really going on for him

00:02:26.019 --> 00:02:27.259
 on the inside.

00:02:28.859 --> 00:02:31.599
 Now my soul is troubled.

00:02:33.339 --> 00:02:35.000
 Not just a little troubled,

00:02:35.500 --> 00:02:37.519
 but deeply troubled.

00:02:37.659 --> 00:02:38.459
 My soul,

00:02:39.899 --> 00:02:41.259
 the inmost part of me,

00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:42.899
 the core.

00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:47.279
 How come?

00:02:47.419 --> 00:02:51.219
 What's bothering you so much,

00:02:51.579 --> 00:02:51.879
 Jesus?

00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:55.079
 Well, we don't have to wonder.

00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:57.939
 Jesus tells us what he's thinking about.

00:03:00.219 --> 00:03:01.019
 He says,

00:03:01.339 --> 00:03:03.779
 Now my soul is troubled.

00:03:04.119 --> 00:03:05.539
 And what should I say?

00:03:06.299 --> 00:03:08.459
 Father, save me from this hour?

00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:13.579
 Even if we and the disciples

00:03:13.579 --> 00:03:16.359
 have already moved on in our minds,

00:03:16.360 --> 00:03:18.020
 are thinking about something else.

00:03:18.160 --> 00:03:19.340
 Jesus has not.

00:03:20.440 --> 00:03:23.120
 He is still thinking about this hour

00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:25.520
 that has now come for him.

00:03:26.880 --> 00:03:28.780
 About what this hour holds.

00:03:30.060 --> 00:03:32.020
 And it unsettles Jesus

00:03:32.020 --> 00:03:33.600
 in his heart of hearts.

00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:38.659
 It causes him to tremble in his soul.

00:03:40.500 --> 00:03:42.979
 And thoughts arise in his own mind

00:03:42.979 --> 00:03:46.939
 of how he might be saved

00:03:46.939 --> 00:03:48.199
 from this hour.

00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:51.219
 Think about this for a moment.

00:03:51.219 --> 00:03:53.840
 Jesus feels in his heart.

00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:56.080
 Jesus feels in his heart

00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:56.800
 the desire

00:03:56.800 --> 00:03:58.759
 for escape.

00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:03.900
 We've all felt something similar

00:04:03.900 --> 00:04:05.500
 in the troubles we go through,

00:04:05.620 --> 00:04:06.000
 haven't we?

00:04:06.280 --> 00:04:07.319
 At one time or another.

00:04:07.579 --> 00:04:09.060
 Who of us has not felt

00:04:09.060 --> 00:04:11.419
 that things are just so hard,

00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:13.240
 so heavy,

00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:15.340
 so dark,

00:04:15.340 --> 00:04:18.480
 so unbearable

00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:19.939
 that we simply must escape.

00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:21.160
 I can't do this anymore.

00:04:21.259 --> 00:04:22.780
 I can't go through this

00:04:22.780 --> 00:04:24.000
 anymore.

00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:26.300
 For us,

00:04:26.379 --> 00:04:27.720
 this is often a key factor

00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:29.620
 in substance abuse

00:04:29.620 --> 00:04:30.780
 and addiction.

00:04:31.180 --> 00:04:32.920
 The desire to escape.

00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:36.319
 The desire to get out from under

00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:37.860
 that crushing weight

00:04:37.860 --> 00:04:38.680
 of our emotions.

00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:41.040
 Amazingly,

00:04:41.300 --> 00:04:42.400
 Jesus,

00:04:43.400 --> 00:04:44.300
 the God-man,

00:04:45.180 --> 00:04:45.959
 has felt

00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:47.220
 in his soul

00:04:47.220 --> 00:04:48.819
 the desire to escape,

00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:51.500
 to get out from under

00:04:51.500 --> 00:04:52.379
 the crushing weight

00:04:52.379 --> 00:04:53.519
 of what's about to come

00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:54.480
 in this hour,

00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:56.620
 to be saved from this hour.

00:04:58.060 --> 00:04:58.939
 And yet,

00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:01.420
 even as Jesus

00:05:01.420 --> 00:05:03.120
 gives us these words

00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:04.819
 to know what he has been thinking,

00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.980
 he also says it in such a way

00:05:07.980 --> 00:05:08.700
 that it's clear.

00:05:09.939 --> 00:05:11.720
 He intends to go through

00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:12.560
 with this hour.

00:05:14.379 --> 00:05:15.600
 What shall I say?

00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:16.000
 Father,

00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:17.460
 save me from this hour?

00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:19.960
 No.

00:05:21.020 --> 00:05:23.220
 It was for this very reason

00:05:23.220 --> 00:05:23.780
 I came

00:05:23.780 --> 00:05:25.600
 to this hour.

00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:28.319
 There's a statement here.

00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:30.580
 It's as though Jesus is saying,

00:05:30.980 --> 00:05:31.800
 should I pray

00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:33.060
 and ask God

00:05:33.060 --> 00:05:34.360
 to spare me

00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:35.720
 from what's about to happen

00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:36.400
 in this hour,

00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:37.540
 what I'm about to go through?

00:05:37.980 --> 00:05:40.259
 No.

00:05:41.540 --> 00:05:42.860
 I want to,

00:05:43.080 --> 00:05:43.500
 and yet,

00:05:44.100 --> 00:05:44.520
 no,

00:05:45.259 --> 00:05:46.120
 I will not.

00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:49.060
 Because for this hour

00:05:49.060 --> 00:05:50.720
 and what it holds,

00:05:51.960 --> 00:05:53.060
 it's the very reason

00:05:53.060 --> 00:05:53.660
 I came.

00:05:56.580 --> 00:05:57.700
 What's about to happen

00:05:57.700 --> 00:05:58.259
 to Jesus

00:05:58.259 --> 00:05:59.900
 is at the very core

00:05:59.900 --> 00:06:02.240
 of why he has come down

00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:02.900
 from heaven

00:06:02.900 --> 00:06:03.920
 to earth.

00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:03.980
 earth.

00:06:04.980 --> 00:06:06.860
 It's at the very center

00:06:06.860 --> 00:06:07.620
 of why

00:06:07.620 --> 00:06:08.660
 the word

00:06:08.660 --> 00:06:09.699
 who was with God

00:06:09.699 --> 00:06:10.819
 and was God

00:06:10.819 --> 00:06:12.480
 became flesh

00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:14.020
 and came to live among us.

00:06:14.019 --> 00:06:18.139
 all of Jesus'

00:06:18.139 --> 00:06:19.419
 story

00:06:19.419 --> 00:06:20.379
 and life

00:06:20.379 --> 00:06:21.120
 is important.

00:06:21.620 --> 00:06:22.259
 His birth,

00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:24.079
 his baptism,

00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:25.839
 his

00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:26.839
 obedience

00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:27.979
 to the Father,

00:06:28.979 --> 00:06:29.899
 his teaching,

00:06:30.579 --> 00:06:31.399
 his miracles,

00:06:31.939 --> 00:06:33.099
 his calling

00:06:33.099 --> 00:06:33.779
 of the disciples,

00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:34.439
 all of it

00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:35.039
 is important.

00:06:35.699 --> 00:06:36.799
 But this hour

00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:38.680
 and what's about

00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:39.120
 to happen

00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:39.939
 to Jesus here

00:06:39.939 --> 00:06:40.579
 stands above

00:06:40.579 --> 00:06:41.759
 all the rest of it.

00:06:43.379 --> 00:06:44.840
 The chief purpose,

00:06:45.540 --> 00:06:46.860
 not the only purpose,

00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:48.139
 the chief purpose

00:06:48.139 --> 00:06:49.060
 in coming

00:06:49.060 --> 00:06:50.560
 was not to teach us

00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:51.180
 how to live.

00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:53.319
 It was not to do

00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:54.500
 great miracles

00:06:54.500 --> 00:06:55.480
 and to heal people.

00:06:56.540 --> 00:06:57.500
 These are all things

00:06:57.500 --> 00:06:58.040
 he's been doing

00:06:58.040 --> 00:06:58.740
 up until now.

00:06:58.980 --> 00:07:00.340
 His chief purpose

00:07:00.340 --> 00:07:01.180
 in his coming

00:07:01.180 --> 00:07:02.939
 is what will happen

00:07:02.939 --> 00:07:04.180
 in this hour.

00:07:04.180 --> 00:07:06.040
 He came

00:07:06.040 --> 00:07:07.579
 to die.

00:07:09.740 --> 00:07:10.840
 As we heard

00:07:10.840 --> 00:07:11.860
 last Sunday

00:07:11.860 --> 00:07:12.560
 what he said

00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:13.439
 in verse 24

00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:14.780
 right before this,

00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:16.379
 very truly

00:07:16.379 --> 00:07:17.120
 I tell you

00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:18.920
 unless a kernel

00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:19.420
 of wheat

00:07:19.420 --> 00:07:20.620
 falls to the ground

00:07:20.620 --> 00:07:21.300
 and dies

00:07:21.300 --> 00:07:22.740
 it remains

00:07:22.740 --> 00:07:23.540
 a single seed.

00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:25.639
 But if it dies

00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:27.280
 it produces

00:07:27.280 --> 00:07:28.800
 many seeds.

00:07:30.139 --> 00:07:31.040
 Jesus came

00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:31.980
 to make

00:07:31.980 --> 00:07:33.280
 this great

00:07:33.280 --> 00:07:34.060
 exchange.

00:07:34.180 --> 00:07:35.439
 one for many.

00:07:36.180 --> 00:07:36.959
 His life

00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:38.379
 for ours.

00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:42.379
 There are two things

00:07:42.379 --> 00:07:43.579
 here for us.

00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:45.240
 First,

00:07:46.300 --> 00:07:47.300
 do you see

00:07:47.300 --> 00:07:48.019
 how truly

00:07:48.019 --> 00:07:48.680
 like us

00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:49.540
 Jesus is?

00:07:50.960 --> 00:07:52.160
 How human.

00:07:53.259 --> 00:07:54.160
 He wrestles

00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:54.960
 in his heart

00:07:54.960 --> 00:07:56.220
 and mind

00:07:56.220 --> 00:07:57.399
 with his emotions

00:07:57.399 --> 00:07:58.740
 and thoughts

00:07:58.740 --> 00:08:01.000
 just like we do.

00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:03.920
 there's an emotional

00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:04.779
 struggle here

00:08:04.779 --> 00:08:05.600
 in Jesus

00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:06.699
 a deep one

00:08:06.699 --> 00:08:08.939
 and even though

00:08:08.939 --> 00:08:09.980
 Jesus prevails

00:08:09.980 --> 00:08:11.300
 that is to say

00:08:11.300 --> 00:08:12.399
 he makes the right

00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:12.879
 choice

00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:13.839
 in this moment

00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:15.079
 isn't it a comfort

00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:15.740
 to know that

00:08:15.740 --> 00:08:16.800
 Jesus knows

00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:17.759
 what it's like

00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:19.220
 to have the deepest

00:08:19.220 --> 00:08:20.459
 of struggles

00:08:20.459 --> 00:08:21.279
 and conflicts

00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:22.339
 in his own heart.

00:08:22.339 --> 00:08:27.119
 second,

00:08:27.539 --> 00:08:29.199
 do you see

00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:30.299
 the depth

00:08:30.299 --> 00:08:31.739
 of Jesus'

00:08:31.979 --> 00:08:32.240
 love

00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:33.220
 for you

00:08:33.220 --> 00:08:33.819
 here?

00:08:36.220 --> 00:08:36.860
 First,

00:08:37.659 --> 00:08:38.360
 notice when

00:08:38.360 --> 00:08:39.039
 this plan

00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:39.699
 of love

00:08:39.699 --> 00:08:40.399
 began.

00:08:41.659 --> 00:08:42.399
 Notice when

00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:43.699
 Jesus had a reason

00:08:43.699 --> 00:08:44.659
 to die for us.

00:08:44.659 --> 00:08:46.379
 it was not

00:08:46.379 --> 00:08:47.439
 after he came

00:08:47.439 --> 00:08:47.819
 down

00:08:47.819 --> 00:08:49.899
 and saw us

00:08:49.899 --> 00:08:51.199
 face to face

00:08:51.199 --> 00:08:52.120
 that he suddenly

00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:52.639
 realized,

00:08:52.779 --> 00:08:53.219
 oh man,

00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:54.439
 I must do

00:08:54.439 --> 00:08:55.019
 something for

00:08:55.019 --> 00:08:55.519
 these poor

00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:56.419
 people to save

00:08:56.419 --> 00:08:56.659
 them.

00:08:57.379 --> 00:08:57.919
 No,

00:08:58.480 --> 00:08:59.679
 it was before

00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:00.559
 he came

00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:01.919
 into the world.

00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:03.559
 In fact,

00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:04.459
 it was the reason

00:09:04.459 --> 00:09:05.379
 he came into

00:09:05.379 --> 00:09:05.860
 the world

00:09:05.860 --> 00:09:07.959
 to save us

00:09:07.959 --> 00:09:10.259
 which means

00:09:10.259 --> 00:09:11.039
 that Jesus

00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:12.519
 loved you

00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:14.379
 long before

00:09:14.379 --> 00:09:14.860
 you even

00:09:14.860 --> 00:09:15.299
 knew it.

00:09:16.579 --> 00:09:17.379
 He saw

00:09:17.379 --> 00:09:18.100
 your need

00:09:18.100 --> 00:09:19.039
 for his

00:09:19.039 --> 00:09:19.460
 death

00:09:19.460 --> 00:09:20.480
 even before

00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:20.860
 you were

00:09:20.860 --> 00:09:21.199
 born.

00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:23.939
 He loved

00:09:23.939 --> 00:09:24.299
 you

00:09:24.299 --> 00:09:25.240
 when to

00:09:25.240 --> 00:09:25.559
 you

00:09:25.559 --> 00:09:26.639
 he was a

00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:27.059
 stranger,

00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:28.600
 someone you'd

00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:29.000
 never even

00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:29.559
 heard of.

00:09:30.500 --> 00:09:30.980
 He loved

00:09:30.980 --> 00:09:31.439
 you then

00:09:31.439 --> 00:09:32.419
 enough

00:09:32.419 --> 00:09:33.480
 to come

00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:33.840
 down,

00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:35.840
 to get

00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:36.299
 to this

00:09:36.299 --> 00:09:36.639
 hour,

00:09:37.199 --> 00:09:38.139
 to die

00:09:38.139 --> 00:09:38.740
 for you.

00:09:40.939 --> 00:09:41.539
 Next,

00:09:41.539 --> 00:09:42.860
 notice the

00:09:42.860 --> 00:09:43.339
 depth of

00:09:43.339 --> 00:09:43.779
 his love

00:09:43.779 --> 00:09:44.240
 for you

00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:45.939
 here in

00:09:45.939 --> 00:09:46.480
 this moment.

00:09:46.899 --> 00:09:47.360
 We might

00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:47.719
 at first

00:09:47.719 --> 00:09:48.079
 think,

00:09:49.039 --> 00:09:49.779
 look,

00:09:50.559 --> 00:09:50.860
 Jesus

00:09:50.860 --> 00:09:51.839
 seems to

00:09:51.839 --> 00:09:52.219
 be having

00:09:52.219 --> 00:09:52.599
 second

00:09:52.599 --> 00:09:53.139
 thoughts

00:09:53.139 --> 00:09:54.819
 about going

00:09:54.819 --> 00:09:55.339
 through with

00:09:55.339 --> 00:09:56.500
 this in

00:09:56.500 --> 00:09:56.860
 order to

00:09:56.860 --> 00:09:57.379
 save me.

00:09:57.679 --> 00:09:58.199
 Maybe he

00:09:58.199 --> 00:09:58.860
 doesn't love

00:09:58.860 --> 00:09:59.360
 me as much

00:09:59.360 --> 00:09:59.879
 as I thought

00:09:59.879 --> 00:10:00.299
 he did.

00:10:01.179 --> 00:10:01.839
 We might

00:10:01.839 --> 00:10:02.279
 think about

00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:02.699
 it like a

00:10:02.699 --> 00:10:03.319
 person who's

00:10:03.319 --> 00:10:03.799
 made their

00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:04.339
 vows and

00:10:04.339 --> 00:10:05.000
 promises on

00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:05.379
 their wedding

00:10:05.379 --> 00:10:05.719
 day,

00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:06.879
 but then all

00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:07.240
 of a sudden

00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:07.639
 is having

00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:08.339
 doubts or

00:10:08.339 --> 00:10:09.500
 second thoughts,

00:10:09.620 --> 00:10:10.240
 getting cold

00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:10.819
 feet about

00:10:10.820 --> 00:10:11.520
 this marriage.

00:10:12.660 --> 00:10:13.360
 Is that

00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:13.620
 what's

00:10:13.620 --> 00:10:13.940
 happening

00:10:13.940 --> 00:10:14.400
 here with

00:10:14.400 --> 00:10:14.700
 Jesus?

00:10:16.640 --> 00:10:17.140
 No,

00:10:17.660 --> 00:10:18.340
 I don't

00:10:18.340 --> 00:10:18.820
 think so.

00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:19.480
 In fact,

00:10:19.520 --> 00:10:20.000
 I think it's

00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:20.379
 quite the

00:10:20.379 --> 00:10:20.760
 opposite.

00:10:23.020 --> 00:10:23.360
 Jesus'

00:10:23.860 --> 00:10:24.620
 inner struggle

00:10:24.620 --> 00:10:25.980
 shows us

00:10:25.980 --> 00:10:27.360
 how truly

00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:28.140
 difficult it

00:10:28.140 --> 00:10:29.100
 is to

00:10:29.100 --> 00:10:29.440
 meet the

00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:30.260
 requirements of

00:10:30.260 --> 00:10:30.980
 our salvation.

00:10:32.660 --> 00:10:33.220
 We're

00:10:33.220 --> 00:10:33.820
 catching a

00:10:33.820 --> 00:10:34.500
 glimpse here

00:10:34.500 --> 00:10:36.420
 of just

00:10:36.420 --> 00:10:37.200
 how costly

00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:38.060
 it is

00:10:38.060 --> 00:10:39.060
 for him

00:10:39.060 --> 00:10:39.640
 to save

00:10:39.640 --> 00:10:39.960
 us.

00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.000
 he's

00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:43.280
 feeling

00:10:43.280 --> 00:10:43.480
 the

00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:43.700
 weight

00:10:43.700 --> 00:10:43.960
 of it

00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:44.220
 in his

00:10:44.220 --> 00:10:44.400
 own

00:10:44.400 --> 00:10:44.840
 heart

00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:47.420
 and that

00:10:47.420 --> 00:10:47.740
 Jesus

00:10:47.740 --> 00:10:48.320
 says,

00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:49.000
 no,

00:10:49.940 --> 00:10:50.700
 I will

00:10:50.700 --> 00:10:52.500
 go through

00:10:52.500 --> 00:10:52.920
 with this

00:10:52.920 --> 00:10:53.200
 hour.

00:10:53.379 --> 00:10:53.740
 I will

00:10:53.740 --> 00:10:54.420
 not ask

00:10:54.420 --> 00:10:54.980
 my father

00:10:54.980 --> 00:10:55.639
 to save

00:10:55.639 --> 00:10:56.060
 me from

00:10:56.060 --> 00:10:56.259
 it.

00:10:56.660 --> 00:10:56.960
 It's

00:10:56.960 --> 00:10:57.500
 the proof

00:10:57.500 --> 00:10:57.980
 that his

00:10:57.980 --> 00:10:59.000
 love for

00:10:59.000 --> 00:10:59.740
 us really

00:10:59.740 --> 00:11:00.580
 is greater

00:11:00.580 --> 00:11:01.060
 than we

00:11:01.060 --> 00:11:01.519
 can ever

00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:01.980
 imagine.

00:11:04.139 --> 00:11:04.800
 This is

00:11:04.800 --> 00:11:05.180
 the hour

00:11:05.180 --> 00:11:05.759
 of testing.

00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:07.899
 this is

00:11:07.899 --> 00:11:08.379
 the hour

00:11:08.379 --> 00:11:08.759
 in which

00:11:08.759 --> 00:11:09.080
 we will

00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:09.419
 see

00:11:09.419 --> 00:11:10.439
 whether

00:11:10.439 --> 00:11:10.860
 Jesus

00:11:10.860 --> 00:11:11.340
 loves

00:11:11.340 --> 00:11:11.799
 Peter,

00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:13.559
 James,

00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:14.139
 John,

00:11:14.620 --> 00:11:14.980
 Mary,

00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:16.200
 Martha,

00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:17.080
 you,

00:11:17.319 --> 00:11:17.980
 and me

00:11:17.980 --> 00:11:20.059
 that much.

00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:22.220
 Enough

00:11:22.220 --> 00:11:23.159
 to die

00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:24.299
 for us.

00:11:25.299 --> 00:11:26.059
 Enough

00:11:26.059 --> 00:11:26.799
 to receive

00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:27.600
 the punishment

00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:28.399
 of our

00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:29.039
 sins

00:11:29.039 --> 00:11:30.839
 on himself

00:11:30.839 --> 00:11:31.219
 as though

00:11:31.219 --> 00:11:31.740
 he had

00:11:31.740 --> 00:11:31.919
 done

00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:32.199
 those

00:11:32.199 --> 00:11:32.679
 things.

00:11:35.459 --> 00:11:36.259
 That he's

00:11:36.259 --> 00:11:36.779
 troubled in

00:11:36.779 --> 00:11:37.240
 his soul.

00:11:37.419 --> 00:11:38.120
 It's not a

00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:38.539
 sign of

00:11:38.539 --> 00:11:39.539
 cold feet

00:11:39.539 --> 00:11:40.339
 or second

00:11:40.339 --> 00:11:40.839
 thoughts.

00:11:42.620 --> 00:11:43.379
 It's the

00:11:43.379 --> 00:11:43.759
 measure

00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:44.839
 of just

00:11:44.839 --> 00:11:45.539
 how deep

00:11:45.539 --> 00:11:46.559
 his love

00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:47.199
 is

00:11:47.199 --> 00:11:48.299
 for you

00:11:48.299 --> 00:11:48.819
 and for

00:11:48.819 --> 00:11:49.120
 me.

00:11:49.599 --> 00:11:50.399
 Because even

00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:50.839
 though he

00:11:50.839 --> 00:11:51.679
 feels that

00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:52.120
 weight,

00:11:52.339 --> 00:11:53.259
 that cost,

00:11:53.819 --> 00:11:54.559
 he doesn't

00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:55.059
 turn back

00:11:55.059 --> 00:11:55.319
 here.

00:11:57.759 --> 00:11:58.439
 That's the

00:11:58.439 --> 00:11:58.779
 kind of

00:11:58.779 --> 00:11:59.139
 love that

00:11:59.139 --> 00:11:59.500
 we long

00:11:59.500 --> 00:11:59.799
 for,

00:11:59.879 --> 00:12:00.240
 isn't it?

00:12:02.139 --> 00:12:02.740
 We're not

00:12:02.740 --> 00:12:03.240
 looking just

00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:03.500
 for the

00:12:03.500 --> 00:12:03.839
 kind of

00:12:03.839 --> 00:12:04.279
 love that

00:12:04.279 --> 00:12:05.179
 people give

00:12:05.179 --> 00:12:05.539
 to us

00:12:05.539 --> 00:12:05.879
 when it's

00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:07.679
 easy and

00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:08.019
 it feels

00:12:08.019 --> 00:12:08.439
 good to

00:12:08.439 --> 00:12:08.899
 love us.

00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:10.100
 We're

00:12:10.100 --> 00:12:10.519
 looking for

00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:11.079
 that greater

00:12:11.079 --> 00:12:11.500
 and deeper

00:12:11.500 --> 00:12:11.799
 love,

00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:12.259
 aren't we?

00:12:13.659 --> 00:12:14.339
 The kind

00:12:14.339 --> 00:12:14.819
 that loves

00:12:14.819 --> 00:12:15.819
 us even

00:12:15.819 --> 00:12:16.439
 when it's

00:12:16.439 --> 00:12:17.059
 really hard

00:12:17.059 --> 00:12:17.639
 to love

00:12:17.639 --> 00:12:17.959
 us.

00:12:18.699 --> 00:12:19.360
 And that's

00:12:19.360 --> 00:12:19.639
 what we

00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:20.639
 see in

00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:21.279
 Jesus here.

00:12:21.379 --> 00:12:21.839
 He says,

00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:22.480
 no.

00:12:24.339 --> 00:12:24.919
 I will

00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:25.379
 not pray

00:12:25.379 --> 00:12:25.679
 that.

00:12:25.779 --> 00:12:25.959
 I will

00:12:25.959 --> 00:12:26.579
 not ask

00:12:26.579 --> 00:12:26.939
 that.

00:12:26.940 --> 00:12:28.980
 this is

00:12:28.980 --> 00:12:29.380
 why I

00:12:29.380 --> 00:12:31.020
 came for

00:12:31.020 --> 00:12:31.540
 this hour.

00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:33.580
 And then

00:12:33.580 --> 00:12:34.260
 he seals

00:12:34.260 --> 00:12:36.240
 this with

00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:36.660
 a prayer

00:12:36.660 --> 00:12:37.120
 to his

00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:37.440
 father.

00:12:37.580 --> 00:12:38.240
 He calls

00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:39.000
 out loud

00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:39.580
 in the

00:12:39.580 --> 00:12:39.980
 hearing of

00:12:39.980 --> 00:12:40.180
 all,

00:12:40.500 --> 00:12:40.880
 father,

00:12:41.300 --> 00:12:41.940
 glorify

00:12:41.940 --> 00:12:42.760
 your name.

00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:46.160
 Why does

00:12:46.160 --> 00:12:46.760
 Jesus say

00:12:46.760 --> 00:12:47.060
 that?

00:12:48.180 --> 00:12:48.700
 Father,

00:12:49.820 --> 00:12:50.560
 glorify

00:12:50.560 --> 00:12:51.840
 your name.

00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:55.759
 just a

00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:55.920
 couple

00:12:55.920 --> 00:12:56.220
 verses

00:12:56.220 --> 00:12:56.780
 earlier,

00:12:57.240 --> 00:12:58.639
 we heard

00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:00.040
 that the

00:13:00.040 --> 00:13:00.460
 hour has

00:13:00.460 --> 00:13:00.879
 come for

00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:01.280
 the son

00:13:01.280 --> 00:13:01.740
 of man

00:13:01.740 --> 00:13:02.080
 to be

00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:02.600
 glorified.

00:13:02.680 --> 00:13:02.920
 That's

00:13:02.920 --> 00:13:03.280
 Jesus.

00:13:04.580 --> 00:13:05.340
 So why

00:13:05.340 --> 00:13:05.580
 does

00:13:05.580 --> 00:13:07.300
 Jesus not

00:13:07.300 --> 00:13:07.560
 pray,

00:13:07.700 --> 00:13:07.920
 father,

00:13:08.060 --> 00:13:08.660
 glorify

00:13:08.660 --> 00:13:09.639
 my name.

00:13:11.420 --> 00:13:11.940
 Father,

00:13:12.019 --> 00:13:12.500
 vindicate

00:13:12.500 --> 00:13:12.980
 me.

00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:13.399
 Father,

00:13:13.580 --> 00:13:14.180
 lift me

00:13:14.180 --> 00:13:14.540
 up and

00:13:14.540 --> 00:13:15.340
 exalt me

00:13:15.340 --> 00:13:16.280
 in the

00:13:16.280 --> 00:13:16.900
 sight of

00:13:16.900 --> 00:13:17.460
 my enemies.

00:13:17.460 --> 00:13:19.560
 these are

00:13:19.560 --> 00:13:20.060
 very deep

00:13:20.060 --> 00:13:20.519
 waters.

00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:21.420
 And I

00:13:21.420 --> 00:13:21.620
 want to

00:13:21.620 --> 00:13:21.800
 tread

00:13:21.800 --> 00:13:22.259
 carefully

00:13:22.259 --> 00:13:22.620
 here.

00:13:23.820 --> 00:13:24.660
 This hour

00:13:24.660 --> 00:13:25.180
 is the

00:13:25.180 --> 00:13:25.560
 hour in

00:13:25.560 --> 00:13:26.040
 which Jesus

00:13:26.040 --> 00:13:26.480
 will be

00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:27.580
 glorified and

00:13:27.580 --> 00:13:28.480
 exalted and

00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:29.139
 lifted up,

00:13:29.660 --> 00:13:32.000
 but not

00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:32.740
 by seeking

00:13:32.740 --> 00:13:33.780
 after that

00:13:33.780 --> 00:13:34.519
 for himself.

00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:36.920
 As we

00:13:36.920 --> 00:13:37.400
 heard earlier

00:13:37.400 --> 00:13:37.920
 in John's

00:13:37.920 --> 00:13:38.280
 gospel,

00:13:38.440 --> 00:13:38.820
 it is

00:13:38.820 --> 00:13:39.600
 God,

00:13:39.780 --> 00:13:40.759
 the father,

00:13:41.300 --> 00:13:41.700
 who will

00:13:41.700 --> 00:13:42.560
 glorify his

00:13:42.560 --> 00:13:43.680
 son in

00:13:43.680 --> 00:13:44.220
 this hour.

00:13:45.940 --> 00:13:46.720
 And for

00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:47.360
 Jesus to

00:13:47.360 --> 00:13:47.879
 go through

00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:48.340
 with this

00:13:48.340 --> 00:13:48.920
 hour and

00:13:48.920 --> 00:13:50.300
 be glorified,

00:13:50.500 --> 00:13:51.240
 he must

00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:51.740
 do the

00:13:51.740 --> 00:13:52.500
 very opposite

00:13:52.500 --> 00:13:54.460
 of seeking

00:13:54.460 --> 00:13:54.899
 his own

00:13:54.899 --> 00:13:55.279
 glory,

00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:55.899
 his own

00:13:55.899 --> 00:13:56.480
 vindication.

00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:56.940
 He must

00:13:56.940 --> 00:13:57.639
 choose instead

00:13:57.639 --> 00:13:58.399
 to surrender

00:13:58.399 --> 00:13:59.920
 himself to

00:13:59.920 --> 00:14:00.480
 the hatred

00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:01.379
 of his

00:14:01.379 --> 00:14:01.820
 enemies,

00:14:02.740 --> 00:14:03.879
 to surrender

00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:04.580
 himself to

00:14:04.580 --> 00:14:05.220
 humiliation.

00:14:06.700 --> 00:14:07.519
 He must

00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:08.100
 give himself

00:14:08.100 --> 00:14:08.899
 over to the

00:14:08.899 --> 00:14:09.700
 shameful trials

00:14:09.700 --> 00:14:10.580
 and the

00:14:10.580 --> 00:14:10.899
 mocking.

00:14:11.700 --> 00:14:12.420
 He must

00:14:12.420 --> 00:14:12.980
 allow them

00:14:12.980 --> 00:14:14.100
 to strip

00:14:14.100 --> 00:14:14.620
 off his

00:14:14.620 --> 00:14:16.500
 clothes and

00:14:16.500 --> 00:14:17.419
 execute him

00:14:17.419 --> 00:14:18.039
 as though

00:14:18.039 --> 00:14:18.399
 he were

00:14:18.399 --> 00:14:18.899
 a criminal.

00:14:21.220 --> 00:14:22.080
 As a

00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:23.639
 man to

00:14:23.639 --> 00:14:24.519
 atone for

00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:24.820
 men,

00:14:26.139 --> 00:14:26.799
 Jesus must

00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:27.340
 seek not

00:14:27.340 --> 00:14:28.059
 to glorify

00:14:28.059 --> 00:14:28.600
 and exalt

00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:30.480
 himself in

00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:30.940
 this hour,

00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:31.460
 but rather

00:14:31.460 --> 00:14:32.360
 to glorify

00:14:32.360 --> 00:14:33.340
 and exalt

00:14:33.340 --> 00:14:34.299
 his father,

00:14:34.980 --> 00:14:35.519
 to be

00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:35.980
 obedient,

00:14:37.019 --> 00:14:37.360
 and to

00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:37.899
 give the

00:14:37.899 --> 00:14:38.360
 ultimate

00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:39.899
 sacrifice of

00:14:39.899 --> 00:14:40.259
 worship,

00:14:41.039 --> 00:14:42.059
 his own

00:14:42.059 --> 00:14:42.399
 life.

00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:43.779
 God

00:14:43.779 --> 00:14:44.399
 is

00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:44.659
 a

00:14:44.659 --> 00:14:45.079
 mysterious

00:14:45.079 --> 00:14:45.600
 thing.

00:14:47.299 --> 00:14:47.620
 Jesus

00:14:47.620 --> 00:14:48.699
 raises high

00:14:48.699 --> 00:14:49.199
 the name

00:14:49.199 --> 00:14:49.519
 of his

00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:49.939
 father,

00:14:50.079 --> 00:14:50.720
 of God,

00:14:50.899 --> 00:14:52.199
 by allowing

00:14:52.199 --> 00:14:52.879
 his own

00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:53.519
 name to

00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:54.079
 be trampled

00:14:54.079 --> 00:14:54.379
 in the

00:14:54.379 --> 00:14:54.579
 mud.

00:14:56.860 --> 00:14:57.559
 And it

00:14:57.559 --> 00:14:58.199
 is mysterious.

00:14:58.480 --> 00:14:58.679
 At the

00:14:58.679 --> 00:14:59.159
 very same

00:14:59.159 --> 00:14:59.539
 time,

00:14:59.659 --> 00:15:00.039
 God the

00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:00.980
 father is

00:15:00.980 --> 00:15:01.539
 about to

00:15:01.539 --> 00:15:02.699
 raise high

00:15:02.699 --> 00:15:03.199
 the name

00:15:03.199 --> 00:15:03.579
 of his

00:15:03.579 --> 00:15:05.379
 son for

00:15:05.379 --> 00:15:05.799
 doing the

00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:06.539
 most beautiful

00:15:06.539 --> 00:15:07.860
 and glorious

00:15:07.860 --> 00:15:08.559
 act of

00:15:08.559 --> 00:15:09.240
 love this

00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:10.120
 universe has

00:15:10.120 --> 00:15:11.500
 ever known

00:15:11.500 --> 00:15:12.139
 or ever

00:15:12.139 --> 00:15:12.700
 will know.

00:15:14.940 --> 00:15:15.659
 It's

00:15:15.659 --> 00:15:16.080
 especially

00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:16.879
 for this

00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:18.460
 hour in

00:15:18.460 --> 00:15:19.259
 particular that

00:15:19.259 --> 00:15:19.779
 we will be

00:15:19.779 --> 00:15:20.440
 praising the

00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:21.120
 Lord Jesus

00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:22.720
 for all

00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:23.620
 eternity,

00:15:24.419 --> 00:15:25.139
 saying,

00:15:25.379 --> 00:15:26.139
 worthy is

00:15:26.139 --> 00:15:26.700
 the lamb.

00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:27.200
 Why?

00:15:28.379 --> 00:15:29.500
 Because he

00:15:29.500 --> 00:15:30.180
 was slain.

00:15:31.940 --> 00:15:32.879
 Worthy to

00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:33.860
 receive power

00:15:33.860 --> 00:15:34.960
 and wealth

00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:35.740
 and wisdom

00:15:35.740 --> 00:15:37.159
 and strength

00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:38.340
 and honor

00:15:38.340 --> 00:15:39.480
 and glory

00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:40.740
 and praise.

00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:41.860
 It's for

00:15:41.860 --> 00:15:42.519
 this hour

00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:44.340
 that Jesus,

00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:45.700
 the God

00:15:45.700 --> 00:15:46.019
 man,

00:15:46.280 --> 00:15:47.100
 is worthy

00:15:47.100 --> 00:15:48.399
 to take

00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:49.080
 the scroll

00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:49.780
 and open

00:15:49.780 --> 00:15:50.300
 the seals

00:15:50.300 --> 00:15:50.920
 and usher

00:15:50.920 --> 00:15:51.780
 in the

00:15:51.780 --> 00:15:52.600
 final program

00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:53.620
 for our

00:15:53.620 --> 00:15:54.100
 world.

00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:55.259
 Why?

00:15:56.399 --> 00:15:57.080
 Because you

00:15:57.080 --> 00:15:57.800
 were slain

00:15:57.800 --> 00:16:00.399
 and with

00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:00.840
 your blood

00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:01.620
 you purchased

00:16:01.620 --> 00:16:02.400
 for God

00:16:02.400 --> 00:16:03.519
 persons from

00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:04.840
 every tribe

00:16:04.840 --> 00:16:05.580
 and language

00:16:05.580 --> 00:16:06.519
 and people

00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:07.420
 and nation.

00:16:08.340 --> 00:16:10.800
 Revelation 5

00:16:10.800 --> 00:16:11.460
 verse 9.

00:16:12.660 --> 00:16:13.280
 It's

00:16:13.280 --> 00:16:13.759
 mysterious.

00:16:14.820 --> 00:16:15.460
 It's

00:16:15.460 --> 00:16:15.960
 wonderful.

00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:16.899
 It's kind

00:16:16.899 --> 00:16:17.340
 of upside

00:16:17.340 --> 00:16:17.940
 down to

00:16:17.940 --> 00:16:18.399
 how things

00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:18.720
 go in

00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:19.259
 our world

00:16:19.259 --> 00:16:20.560
 and that's

00:16:20.560 --> 00:16:20.860
 how it

00:16:20.860 --> 00:16:21.379
 often is

00:16:21.379 --> 00:16:21.899
 with God

00:16:21.899 --> 00:16:22.580
 and his

00:16:22.580 --> 00:16:23.320
 dealings

00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:23.920
 with us.

00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:25.360
 Over and

00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:25.840
 over throughout

00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:26.300
 the Bible

00:16:26.300 --> 00:16:26.899
 we're told

00:16:26.899 --> 00:16:28.180
 that God

00:16:28.180 --> 00:16:28.920
 humbles

00:16:28.920 --> 00:16:29.440
 the proud

00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:31.220
 and at the

00:16:31.220 --> 00:16:31.860
 same time

00:16:31.860 --> 00:16:32.860
 that he

00:16:32.860 --> 00:16:33.540
 exalts

00:16:33.539 --> 00:16:34.599
 the humble.

00:16:36.559 --> 00:16:37.599
 It ends

00:16:37.599 --> 00:16:37.959
 up going

00:16:37.959 --> 00:16:38.399
 the same

00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:39.099
 with Jesus.

00:16:39.719 --> 00:16:40.419
 His being

00:16:40.419 --> 00:16:41.519
 glorified

00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:42.319
 comes about

00:16:42.319 --> 00:16:43.399
 by his

00:16:43.399 --> 00:16:44.059
 humbling

00:16:44.059 --> 00:16:44.699
 himself

00:16:44.699 --> 00:16:46.000
 before the

00:16:46.000 --> 00:16:46.339
 Father.

00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:48.659
 And so

00:16:48.659 --> 00:16:49.120
 that's why

00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:49.480
 Jesus

00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:50.500
 prays

00:16:50.500 --> 00:16:51.099
 Father

00:16:51.099 --> 00:16:52.419
 glorify

00:16:52.419 --> 00:16:53.559
 your name

00:16:53.559 --> 00:16:55.899
 because in

00:16:55.899 --> 00:16:56.559
 these moments

00:16:56.559 --> 00:16:57.539
 this hour

00:16:57.539 --> 00:16:57.899
 ahead

00:16:57.899 --> 00:16:58.379
 he's about

00:16:58.379 --> 00:16:58.839
 to give it

00:16:58.840 --> 00:16:59.320
 all up.

00:17:00.980 --> 00:17:01.620
 Humble

00:17:01.620 --> 00:17:02.160
 himself

00:17:02.160 --> 00:17:02.820
 to the

00:17:02.820 --> 00:17:03.440
 utmost

00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:06.240
 to the

00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:06.660
 scorn

00:17:06.660 --> 00:17:07.480
 the shame

00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:08.380
 the ridicule

00:17:08.380 --> 00:17:09.100
 the pain

00:17:09.100 --> 00:17:11.120
 of death

00:17:11.120 --> 00:17:11.940
 on a cross.

00:17:14.660 --> 00:17:15.480
 So we're

00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:16.079
 here at the

00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:16.500
 Lord's

00:17:16.500 --> 00:17:17.019
 table

00:17:17.019 --> 00:17:17.720
 again

00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:18.460
 this Sunday

00:17:18.460 --> 00:17:20.259
 and there's

00:17:20.259 --> 00:17:20.620
 a reason

00:17:20.620 --> 00:17:21.120
 that we do

00:17:21.120 --> 00:17:21.680
 this every

00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:22.019
 month.

00:17:23.840 --> 00:17:24.660
 It's not

00:17:24.660 --> 00:17:25.380
 an interruption

00:17:25.380 --> 00:17:26.160
 in the schedule.

00:17:26.819 --> 00:17:27.620
 It's not

00:17:27.620 --> 00:17:28.100
 something that

00:17:28.100 --> 00:17:28.460
 we do

00:17:28.460 --> 00:17:29.019
 just to

00:17:29.019 --> 00:17:30.100
 check off

00:17:30.100 --> 00:17:30.579
 the box

00:17:30.579 --> 00:17:31.120
 of religious

00:17:31.120 --> 00:17:31.840
 duty as a

00:17:31.840 --> 00:17:32.180
 church.

00:17:32.920 --> 00:17:33.840
 It's because

00:17:33.840 --> 00:17:35.519
 what we mark

00:17:35.519 --> 00:17:36.720
 here is the

00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:37.299
 very heart

00:17:37.299 --> 00:17:37.819
 and soul

00:17:37.819 --> 00:17:38.180
 of our

00:17:38.180 --> 00:17:38.759
 Christianity.

00:17:40.059 --> 00:17:40.740
 It's the

00:17:40.740 --> 00:17:41.420
 very center

00:17:41.420 --> 00:17:43.360
 of everything

00:17:43.360 --> 00:17:44.880
 and we never

00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:45.380
 want to lose

00:17:45.380 --> 00:17:45.900
 sight of that

00:17:45.900 --> 00:17:46.299
 or leave

00:17:46.299 --> 00:17:47.299
 that behind.

00:17:47.620 --> 00:17:48.160
 It's the

00:17:48.160 --> 00:17:49.360
 very reason

00:17:49.360 --> 00:17:50.319
 I came

00:17:50.319 --> 00:17:51.860
 this hour.

00:17:53.579 --> 00:17:54.240
 There are

00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:54.860
 no greater

00:17:54.860 --> 00:17:55.700
 and better

00:17:55.700 --> 00:17:56.200
 things to

00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:56.620
 move on

00:17:56.620 --> 00:17:57.120
 to in the

00:17:57.120 --> 00:17:57.840
 Christian faith.

00:17:57.839 --> 00:17:58.500
 there is

00:17:58.500 --> 00:17:58.899
 only for

00:17:58.899 --> 00:17:59.220
 us to

00:17:59.220 --> 00:17:59.779
 go deeper

00:17:59.779 --> 00:18:00.500
 and deeper

00:18:00.500 --> 00:18:01.179
 and deeper

00:18:01.179 --> 00:18:02.240
 into our

00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:02.819
 appreciation

00:18:02.819 --> 00:18:03.500
 of the

00:18:03.500 --> 00:18:03.959
 love that

00:18:03.959 --> 00:18:04.339
 we have

00:18:04.339 --> 00:18:05.019
 found here

00:18:05.019 --> 00:18:06.519
 at the

00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:06.879
 table

00:18:06.879 --> 00:18:08.539
 and at

00:18:08.539 --> 00:18:09.019
 the cross.

00:18:10.019 --> 00:18:10.659
 And so

00:18:10.659 --> 00:18:11.039
 if you've

00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:11.379
 repented

00:18:11.379 --> 00:18:11.759
 of your

00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:12.179
 sins

00:18:12.179 --> 00:18:14.059
 and put

00:18:14.059 --> 00:18:14.579
 your trust

00:18:14.579 --> 00:18:15.399
 in Jesus

00:18:15.399 --> 00:18:16.279
 as your

00:18:16.279 --> 00:18:16.659
 Lord

00:18:16.659 --> 00:18:17.859
 and Savior

00:18:17.859 --> 00:18:18.379
 as the

00:18:18.379 --> 00:18:18.699
 one who

00:18:18.699 --> 00:18:19.159
 died for

00:18:19.159 --> 00:18:19.579
 you for

00:18:19.579 --> 00:18:19.779
 your

00:18:19.779 --> 00:18:20.159
 forgiveness

00:18:20.159 --> 00:18:20.740
 I want to

00:18:20.740 --> 00:18:21.119
 invite you

00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:21.759
 to join

00:18:21.759 --> 00:18:23.159
 and eat

00:18:23.159 --> 00:18:23.599
 and drink

00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:23.959
 with us

00:18:23.959 --> 00:18:24.319
 from this

00:18:24.319 --> 00:18:24.819
 table as

00:18:24.819 --> 00:18:25.200
 we pass

00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:25.480
 out the

00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:25.839
 elements

00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:26.119
 in a

00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:26.439
 moment.

00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:28.259
 The bread

00:18:28.259 --> 00:18:28.980
 represents the

00:18:28.980 --> 00:18:29.359
 body of

00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:29.700
 our Lord

00:18:29.700 --> 00:18:30.059
 Jesus

00:18:30.059 --> 00:18:31.059
 which was

00:18:31.059 --> 00:18:31.720
 broken for

00:18:31.720 --> 00:18:32.639
 us when

00:18:32.639 --> 00:18:32.980
 he died

00:18:32.980 --> 00:18:33.240
 on the

00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:33.599
 cross.

00:18:34.399 --> 00:18:35.079
 The cup

00:18:35.079 --> 00:18:35.799
 represents his

00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:36.359
 blood which

00:18:36.359 --> 00:18:36.819
 was poured

00:18:36.819 --> 00:18:37.220
 out for

00:18:37.220 --> 00:18:38.759
 us for

00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:39.179
 forgiveness

00:18:39.179 --> 00:18:40.879
 and to

00:18:40.879 --> 00:18:41.379
 secure a

00:18:41.379 --> 00:18:41.939
 new covenant

00:18:41.939 --> 00:18:42.279
 a new

00:18:42.279 --> 00:18:42.740
 arrangement

00:18:42.740 --> 00:18:43.339
 with God

00:18:43.339 --> 00:18:43.919
 between us

00:18:43.919 --> 00:18:44.299
 and him.

00:18:45.339 --> 00:18:45.659
 And us

00:18:45.659 --> 00:18:46.740
 taking and

00:18:46.740 --> 00:18:47.559
 eating it

00:18:47.559 --> 00:18:48.039
 as we're

00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:48.460
 about to

00:18:48.460 --> 00:18:49.159
 do in

00:18:49.159 --> 00:18:49.619
 these next

00:18:49.619 --> 00:18:50.019
 moments

00:18:50.019 --> 00:18:50.480
 represents

00:18:50.480 --> 00:18:51.099
 that we

00:18:51.099 --> 00:18:51.920
 are those

00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:52.700
 who believe

00:18:52.700 --> 00:18:53.079
 from the

00:18:53.079 --> 00:18:53.380
 heart

00:18:53.380 --> 00:18:55.160
 that

00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:56.339
 Jesus

00:18:56.339 --> 00:18:56.860
 did this

00:18:56.860 --> 00:18:57.400
 for us

00:18:57.400 --> 00:18:58.259
 and that

00:18:58.259 --> 00:18:58.720
 we needed

00:18:58.720 --> 00:18:59.000
 it.

00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:01.660
 If you

00:19:01.660 --> 00:19:02.140
 don't believe

00:19:02.140 --> 00:19:02.500
 that

00:19:02.500 --> 00:19:04.019
 I ask

00:19:04.019 --> 00:19:04.259
 that you

00:19:04.259 --> 00:19:04.860
 abstain

00:19:04.860 --> 00:19:05.980
 from partaking

00:19:05.980 --> 00:19:06.380
 of the

00:19:06.380 --> 00:19:06.940
 bread and

00:19:06.940 --> 00:19:07.339
 the cup

00:19:07.339 --> 00:19:08.680
 when it

00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:09.279
 comes around

00:19:09.279 --> 00:19:10.440
 but if you

00:19:10.440 --> 00:19:11.360
 do please

00:19:11.360 --> 00:19:12.819
 eat and

00:19:12.819 --> 00:19:13.259
 drink with

00:19:13.259 --> 00:19:13.579
 us.

00:19:15.620 --> 00:19:16.440
 We'll pass

00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:16.799
 it out

00:19:16.799 --> 00:19:17.660
 and after

00:19:17.660 --> 00:19:18.120
 we've had

00:19:18.120 --> 00:19:18.480
 a few

00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:19.039
 minutes of

00:19:19.039 --> 00:19:19.740
 quiet prayer

00:19:19.740 --> 00:19:20.339
 and reflection

00:19:20.339 --> 00:19:23.079
 just ask

00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:23.339
 that you

00:19:23.339 --> 00:19:23.879
 hang on

00:19:23.879 --> 00:19:24.359
 to both

00:19:24.359 --> 00:19:24.819
 the bread

00:19:24.819 --> 00:19:25.079
 and the

00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:25.279
 cup

00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:25.559
 until

00:19:25.559 --> 00:19:26.079
 everybody's

00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:26.259
 been

00:19:26.259 --> 00:19:26.619
 served

00:19:26.619 --> 00:19:27.519
 and

00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:27.799
 then

00:19:27.799 --> 00:19:28.879
 we'll

00:19:28.879 --> 00:19:30.059
 eat and

00:19:30.059 --> 00:19:30.259
 drink

00:19:30.259 --> 00:19:30.459
 all

00:19:30.459 --> 00:19:30.859
 together

00:19:30.859 --> 00:19:31.240
 in

00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:31.679
 unison.

00:19:32.339 --> 00:19:33.240
 So let's

00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:33.619
 do that

00:19:33.619 --> 00:19:33.839
 now.

00:19:33.919 --> 00:19:34.259
 Let's go

00:19:34.259 --> 00:19:34.559
 to the

00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:34.779
 Lord

00:19:34.779 --> 00:19:35.639
 in

00:19:35.639 --> 00:19:36.199
 quiet

00:19:36.199 --> 00:19:36.500
 prayer.
