WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:29.980 Thank you. 00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:48.840 I believe the answer would most likely be no and depend on where the proposal is taking place. 00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:56.620 If this is at the gap, we might end up reading on the news that someone got pushed over for a proposal gone wrong. 00:00:56.619 --> 00:01:03.559 A marriage relationship means two people exclusively devoted to each other. 00:01:04.340 --> 00:01:09.439 We put boundaries in place to honor and protect that relationship. 00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:22.579 If we are unwilling to accept anything else less than that standard, I wonder why we are not treating God with the same standard, who has loved us exclusively. 00:01:22.579 --> 00:01:30.480 There is no one on earth who failed a relationship higher than the extraordinary God of the Bible. 00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:41.079 We have been looking into the book of Exodus of the Old Testament to see the interaction between the extraordinary God and the ordinary people. 00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:54.000 The event of Exodus is about God saving and redeeming the people of Israel, taking them out of slavery under Egypt's king's pharaoh to a land he promised. 00:01:54.920 --> 00:02:05.759 Instead of letting his people, his sons, serve an earthly king, the heavenly king and father of all nations want his people to serve and worship him alone. 00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:13.740 Recapping from chapter 4, verse 21 to 23 is a background and the context of the book of Exodus. 00:02:14.500 --> 00:02:25.420 The Lord said to Moses, when you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. 00:02:26.040 --> 00:02:31.240 Then say to Pharaoh, this is what the Lord says, Israel is my firstborn son. 00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:35.960 And I told you, let my son go so he may worship me. 00:02:36.820 --> 00:02:41.140 But you refuse to let him go so I will kill your firstborn son. 00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:49.500 We have spoken of Moses' wonder and events of God killing Pharaoh's firstborn over the last five weeks. 00:02:50.060 --> 00:02:57.120 If you have missed any of those sermons, please visit our website and use our app to catch up. 00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:02.500 With today's passage, we come to a significant moment of Exodus. 00:03:03.719 --> 00:03:12.039 God led his people through the wilderness between chapter 15 to 18, then came to a mountain in the Sinai Desert. 00:03:12.620 --> 00:03:14.680 The mountain also called Sinai. 00:03:15.580 --> 00:03:24.700 After chapter 19, God's people stationed in front of the mountain Sinai and took their toll to move again in the later book of the Old Testament. 00:03:24.699 --> 00:03:32.579 At Mount Sinai, God established his confidence with his people by giving his law. 00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:38.560 The giving of the law is one of the most significant redemptive historical events. 00:03:39.419 --> 00:03:49.859 Through his servant Moses, God set forth the foundation of his redemptive relationship with the nations of Israel and his world. 00:03:49.860 --> 00:03:58.680 He called us, he tells us his expectation of how we would approach him and treat one another. 00:03:59.740 --> 00:04:04.600 At Mount Sinai, God's people received the heart of their old confidence. 00:04:05.480 --> 00:04:09.200 And Moses reached the pinnacle of his work as a mediator. 00:04:10.100 --> 00:04:14.900 Let's look at three ascents in the preparation to receive the law. 00:04:14.900 --> 00:04:18.120 The law itself in its two dimensions. 00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:21.199 And the mediator, the one and only. 00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:22.720 So three, two, one. 00:04:23.939 --> 00:04:31.899 When we read between chapter 15 to 18, it may seem that Israel was constantly putting God to the test. 00:04:33.100 --> 00:04:35.939 They went, they want to turn back to Egypt. 00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:40.139 They grumble and complain when they were hungry and thirsty. 00:04:41.019 --> 00:04:43.360 When God give them bread, they want the meat. 00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:47.460 However, it was God who was putting them to the test. 00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:55.220 The wilderness was God's way of ripping Israel's self-love and self-sufficiency out of his people. 00:04:56.280 --> 00:04:59.980 Much as he had done with their leader, Moses. 00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:04.639 Remember Moses spent 40 years in a desert wasteland, 00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:09.879 transformed from a prideful fugitive to God's servant. 00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:13.819 God is preparing his people in the wilderness. 00:05:15.379 --> 00:05:22.259 What needed to die in the wilderness and Sinai was their sense that they could go it alone. 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:29.139 They also need to learn that life after redemption was not meant to be easy. 00:05:30.259 --> 00:05:32.600 It's hard road to the land of promise. 00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:42.180 If you ask any of your Christian friends, they will most likely have a wilderness experience about their life that they can share with you. 00:05:43.379 --> 00:05:52.879 The whole chapter 19 to 20, verse 2, reveals something about the role, the law in God's relationship with his people. 00:05:52.879 --> 00:06:06.600 At Mount Sinai, God cemented his covenant with his baby nation that he had elected from all the nations of the earth to be his firstborn son. 00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:13.159 God set the stage of giving the law by establishing the nature of his relationship with his people. 00:06:14.159 --> 00:06:17.980 God shared with his children how they were to serve him. 00:06:18.620 --> 00:06:21.240 He taught them how to live and how to worship him. 00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:29.699 He gave Moses and the people a definitive distilled declaration of his moral law in the Ten Commandments. 00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:38.500 In chapter 19, Moses ascended the mountain many times to enter the presence of God. 00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:42.639 And each time he descends to share God's word with the people. 00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:49.000 What do we learn about God and his relationship to his people from each of these ascents? 00:06:49.000 --> 00:07:01.019 The first ascents, in verse 38, verse 3 to 8, served to reassure Moses and the people that God is with them and love them. 00:07:01.019 --> 00:07:05.019 In verse 4 to 6, it says, 00:07:05.019 --> 00:07:12.000 You yourself have seen what I did to Egypt and how I carried you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself. 00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:19.779 Now if you obey me fully and keep my confidence, and out of all nations, you will be my treasured possession. 00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:26.659 Although the whole earth is mine, you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. 00:07:26.660 --> 00:07:34.080 God brought the people to himself, intending for us to be his treasured possession. 00:07:35.060 --> 00:07:41.700 Although he owns the whole earth, he chose them to be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. 00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:49.660 God has a particular plan for his people, and he lovingly expects us to live according to his plan. 00:07:49.660 --> 00:07:59.180 The second ascents, in verse 9 to 13, which was read out earlier by Pharaoh, confirmed the holiness of God. 00:07:59.840 --> 00:08:06.560 God, while leading to his people, may also be separated from them because of his holiness. 00:08:07.660 --> 00:08:15.900 We see that from the setting of the boundary and the command for Moses to consecrate the people before God come to them. 00:08:15.899 --> 00:08:25.219 God's holiness and our human sinfulness is a dilemma that only God can fix, and he did fix it. 00:08:26.599 --> 00:08:30.199 The third ascents is from verse 16 to the end of the chapter. 00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:35.199 Confirm that Moses is God's undisputed mediator. 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:44.019 God does not speak to Israel directly, but he spoke to Moses directly in front of them. 00:08:44.019 --> 00:08:47.699 And mediated his message through Moses. 00:08:49.259 --> 00:08:52.059 But Moses was not the ultimate mediator. 00:08:52.740 --> 00:08:55.039 I will explain this after we look at the law itself. 00:08:56.539 --> 00:09:03.620 As the second ascents demonstrate, there is no negotiation regarding the human's relationship with God. 00:09:04.659 --> 00:09:10.439 God, as a sovereign king, established the parameter of his relationship with his people. 00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:18.840 The Ten Commandments was given in a unique, original, redemptive, and confident context. 00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:24.220 However, they have often been taken out of its original context. 00:09:25.040 --> 00:09:26.700 Which is very easy to be done. 00:09:27.140 --> 00:09:33.060 Because those who know the Bible often go straight to Exodus 20, verse 3 to quote them. 00:09:33.059 --> 00:09:41.399 We read out verse 1 and 2 and then jump to verse 18 to highlight what is said before and after the commandments. 00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:50.899 The law was shared with Moses and Israel when they were exhausted from their wandering in the wilderness. 00:09:52.319 --> 00:09:57.500 They wanted to enter the land that God had promised them, but they were not ready. 00:09:57.500 --> 00:10:02.799 God had not finished his preparatory work with them. 00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:08.960 The people of Israel need to understand what it means to live in a confident relationship, 00:10:09.259 --> 00:10:12.620 in confidence with God who had brought them out of Egypt. 00:10:13.500 --> 00:10:16.980 They need to understand God's love and his expectation. 00:10:18.139 --> 00:10:20.419 The law was given in this context. 00:10:20.419 --> 00:10:49.879 God emphasized this point in verse 1 and 2. 00:10:50.419 --> 00:10:53.819 And God spoke all these words. 00:10:54.039 --> 00:10:58.519 I am the Lord your God who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 00:10:59.159 --> 00:11:09.620 God reminded Israel that he established a relationship with them by liberating them from the bondage that they experienced in Egypt. 00:11:10.659 --> 00:11:17.719 As I already said, when God gives a moral law, he did not give the law to establish his relationship with the Israelites. 00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:22.500 He gave it because he already had a relationship with his people. 00:11:23.019 --> 00:11:27.420 And he wanted them now to learn how to express this relationship faithfully. 00:11:28.700 --> 00:11:36.759 Throughout the ages, the people of God meant to treat the law with this same attitude and apply them to their life. 00:11:36.759 --> 00:11:41.000 The law was given to Israel because God loved his children. 00:11:41.379 --> 00:11:50.960 And he wanted to instruct them regarding how to please him and how to live wisely and well in the land he was giving them. 00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:57.899 We can look at the Ten Commandments in two sections, in terms of two dimensions of relationship. 00:11:58.620 --> 00:12:01.539 One goes up and down, and the other goes across. 00:12:01.539 --> 00:12:05.379 If you are a physical person, think about the cross. 00:12:06.659 --> 00:12:12.819 The first five commandments set the boundary and parameter of our interaction with God, the vertical. 00:12:13.959 --> 00:12:23.980 The detail of the first five commandments would enforce the idea that Israel's relationship with God was not to be at the mysterious and irrational level. 00:12:23.980 --> 00:12:35.200 They were to enjoy a personal and moral fellowship with God based on his instruction as an integral part of the whole experience of God coming to them. 00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:39.980 The relationship is based on understanding and obedience. 00:12:41.139 --> 00:12:48.159 The fundamental principle of living in a relationship with God, who had graciously brought them out of the land of slavery 00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:52.879 and consecrated them to himself, is exclusive devotion. 00:12:53.980 --> 00:13:05.519 The avoidance of idolatry, the sanctifying of God's name, the observance of the Sabbath, is a way of showing exclusive devotion to God, who had redeemed them. 00:13:06.700 --> 00:13:15.440 The second section, the horizontal, is about obedience to God in the everyday relationship of family and nation. 00:13:16.659 --> 00:13:21.659 These commandments instruct Israel on how to treat one another. 00:13:21.659 --> 00:13:30.019 Murder, adultery, theft, false testimony were all prohibited by God. 00:13:30.579 --> 00:13:37.799 With these commandments, God reminds his people that loving their neighbors is as important as loving him, 00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:41.480 because each human being is made in the image of God. 00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:48.720 With the last commandment addressing not just the action, but also what is going on in the heart, 00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:53.300 God emphasized the most critical lesson of his expectation. 00:13:54.420 --> 00:13:57.279 God does not just want your outward obedience. 00:13:58.220 --> 00:14:02.580 He wants your whole body, your mind, and most of all, your heart. 00:14:02.580 --> 00:14:08.320 Jesus said in Mark chapter 7, verse 21 to 22, 00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:25.420 All these come from the heart. 00:14:25.420 --> 00:14:32.600 Looking at the Ten Commandments in the shape of the cross was taught by Jesus in Matthew 22, verse 36, 00:14:32.600 --> 00:14:37.440 when he was asked, Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law? 00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:42.580 He gave the best summary of the nature of these commandments by replying, 00:14:43.300 --> 00:14:47.700 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:50.100 This is the first and greatest commandment. 00:14:50.580 --> 00:14:52.180 And the second one is like this. 00:14:53.019 --> 00:14:58.120 Love your neighbor as yourself, as the Lord and the prophet hang on these two commandments. 00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:02.060 Like so much of the Old Testament, Revelation, 00:15:02.799 --> 00:15:07.879 the Ten Commandments can only be fully understood through the person and work of Jesus Christ. 00:15:09.419 --> 00:15:16.639 Moses was a human vessel that God chose to communicate his law to his people. 00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:22.659 But Jesus was the one who fulfilled that law, both in meaning and in practice. 00:15:22.659 --> 00:15:26.100 God gave his law through Moses. 00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:32.539 And we read in the end of chapter 20 that the people also want Moses to mediate for them. 00:15:33.219 --> 00:15:35.679 They were very fearful of seeing God themselves. 00:15:37.299 --> 00:15:41.219 Moses is considered one of the greatest prophets in the whole Bible. 00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:46.639 But his significance was not ultimately found in his role as a mediator. 00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:52.840 His significance was in fact due to him being a preacher of Jesus Christ. 00:15:54.000 --> 00:15:57.299 While he was not fully aware of his service, 00:15:57.779 --> 00:16:02.360 Moses ultimately pawned to Christ when he shared the law with Israel. 00:16:03.460 --> 00:16:07.080 Jesus Christ is the most excellent and final mediator. 00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:10.740 Apart from the Ten Commandments, 00:16:11.540 --> 00:16:16.639 God also gave Moses the blueprint of the tabernacle at Mount Sinai. 00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:21.600 We will be speaking about the tabernacle in coming week. 00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:25.639 Eventually, you will see how the law and the tabernacle 00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:28.700 merge in the person and work of Jesus Christ. 00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.240 Jesus clarifies and expands on the meaning of the law 00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:36.100 through the gospel and the teaching of his followers. 00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:41.220 His Sermon on the Mount in the early part of Matthew's gospel 00:16:41.220 --> 00:16:45.100 is the most concentrated of his teaching on the law. 00:16:45.800 --> 00:16:49.080 He gave them new meaning and pawned directly to the heart. 00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:52.940 Jesus said in Matthew 5, 21-22, 00:16:52.940 --> 00:16:56.820 You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 00:16:57.220 --> 00:16:58.240 you shall not murder, 00:16:58.660 --> 00:17:01.040 and anyone who murders will be subject to judgment. 00:17:01.740 --> 00:17:05.980 But I tell you that anyone who is angry with a brother or sister 00:17:05.980 --> 00:17:07.480 will be subject to judgment. 00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:11.559 Jesus continued in verse 27 and 28, 00:17:11.559 --> 00:17:14.059 You have heard that it was said, 00:17:14.639 --> 00:17:16.019 You shall not commit adultery, 00:17:16.019 --> 00:17:19.519 but I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully 00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:23.059 has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 00:17:24.440 --> 00:17:28.980 Apostle Paul taught the following in Ephesians 4, 28, 00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:29.960 regarding stealing. 00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:33.960 Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer, 00:17:34.339 --> 00:17:37.460 but must work, doing something useful with their own hand, 00:17:37.460 --> 00:17:40.480 that they might have something to share with those in need. 00:17:41.420 --> 00:17:44.559 And earlier from the same chapter, in verse 22-25, 00:17:45.059 --> 00:17:47.620 Paul also said this about false testimony. 00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:51.900 You were taught regarding your former way of life 00:17:51.900 --> 00:17:53.519 to put off your old self, 00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:57.299 which is being corrupted by his deceitful desires, 00:17:57.559 --> 00:18:00.519 to be made new in the attitude of your mind, 00:18:00.860 --> 00:18:02.380 and to put on the new self, 00:18:02.819 --> 00:18:06.759 created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. 00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:09.680 Therefore, each of you must put off falsehood 00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:11.680 and speak truthfully to your neighbor, 00:18:12.259 --> 00:18:14.579 for you are all members of one body. 00:18:15.740 --> 00:18:17.460 Even more importantly, 00:18:17.839 --> 00:18:20.980 Jesus fulfilled all the laws through his active obedience. 00:18:22.099 --> 00:18:25.180 It is Jesus who now resides in the center of our life 00:18:25.180 --> 00:18:28.420 and serves as a constant reminder to God's people 00:18:28.420 --> 00:18:29.799 of God's holiness. 00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:32.619 Our need for a mediator 00:18:32.619 --> 00:18:36.640 and the glorious redemption from bondage to sin 00:18:36.640 --> 00:18:41.300 The greatest gift that Jesus gave to his people 00:18:41.300 --> 00:18:43.980 was not his explanation of the law. 00:18:44.620 --> 00:18:46.960 Instead, it was his own perfect life, 00:18:47.500 --> 00:18:50.900 lived in fulfillment of that law on our behalf. 00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:53.759 That is something Moses could not have done 00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:55.440 on behalf of his people. 00:18:55.440 --> 00:18:59.039 We must remember that our redemption 00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:02.539 was secured through Jesus' death on the cross 00:19:02.539 --> 00:19:06.720 and the righteous life that he lived upon his earth. 00:19:08.059 --> 00:19:10.480 Jesus lived for our salvation 00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:12.880 as much as he died for it. 00:19:13.980 --> 00:19:15.840 Without the life and death of Jesus, 00:19:16.380 --> 00:19:17.980 the law that came through Moses 00:19:17.980 --> 00:19:22.160 could only bring condemnation and death to us, 00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:25.900 but by Jesus' perfect obedience imputed to us 00:19:25.900 --> 00:19:29.180 and by his perfect sacrificial death on our behalf, 00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:32.700 Jesus accomplished what the law never could. 00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:36.120 He made his people righteous and holy. 00:19:37.320 --> 00:19:39.560 For what the law was powerless to do 00:19:39.560 --> 00:19:41.800 because he was weakened by the flesh, 00:19:42.340 --> 00:19:44.380 God did by sending his own son 00:19:44.380 --> 00:19:47.120 to the likeness of sinful flesh 00:19:47.120 --> 00:19:48.800 to be a sin offering. 00:19:49.580 --> 00:19:51.520 And so he condemns sin in the flesh 00:19:51.520 --> 00:19:54.200 in order that the righteous requirement of the law 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:55.860 might be fully met in us, 00:19:56.200 --> 00:19:58.100 who do not live according to the flesh, 00:19:58.460 --> 00:19:59.840 but according to the spirit. 00:20:00.820 --> 00:20:02.380 The most significant contrast 00:20:02.900 --> 00:20:05.280 between these two mediators 00:20:05.280 --> 00:20:08.840 is that Moses' law could only bring death, 00:20:09.460 --> 00:20:11.380 but the law fulfilled by Jesus 00:20:11.380 --> 00:20:13.160 brings life and liberty. 00:20:14.380 --> 00:20:16.160 As Apostle John reminds us 00:20:16.160 --> 00:20:19.620 in his Gospel, chapter 1, verse 17, 00:20:20.340 --> 00:20:22.120 for the law was given through Moses, 00:20:22.820 --> 00:20:25.100 grace and truth come through Jesus Christ. 00:20:26.860 --> 00:20:27.900 At Mount Sinai, 00:20:28.480 --> 00:20:30.700 God established his confident relationship 00:20:30.700 --> 00:20:33.580 with those that he has chosen out of the world. 00:20:34.300 --> 00:20:35.620 God's plan for his people 00:20:35.620 --> 00:20:37.240 to be his treasured possession, 00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:40.260 a kingdom of priests and a holy nation, 00:20:40.980 --> 00:20:43.820 and to bless the rest of the world through them. 00:20:44.380 --> 00:20:47.420 God kept our relationship with him by Jesus, 00:20:47.840 --> 00:20:49.440 the most excellent mediator. 00:20:50.400 --> 00:20:52.220 He surpasses Moses 00:20:52.220 --> 00:20:54.780 because he did not just give or explain the law. 00:20:55.340 --> 00:20:56.920 He fulfilled them for us. 00:20:57.940 --> 00:21:00.240 Therefore, there is now no condemnation 00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:02.820 for those who are in Christ Jesus, 00:21:02.819 --> 00:21:04.720 because through Christ Jesus, 00:21:04.720 --> 00:21:06.919 the law of spirit who gives life 00:21:06.919 --> 00:21:10.299 has set you free from the law of sin and death. 00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:13.639 The law was not given to earn redemption, 00:21:14.259 --> 00:21:17.559 but rather to express gratitude for that redemption. 00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:21.599 So how is your relationship with God? 00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:26.059 Are you growing in your gratitude and appreciation 00:21:26.059 --> 00:21:28.359 of what God has done to redeem you? 00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:32.919 Are you still fearful of approaching God 00:21:32.919 --> 00:21:34.659 because there is some part of you 00:21:34.659 --> 00:21:37.639 that you have not entirely devoted to God? 00:21:38.639 --> 00:21:42.419 God demands exclusive devotion from you 00:21:42.419 --> 00:21:45.919 because he is exclusively devoted to you. 00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:48.900 He is so devoted to you 00:21:48.900 --> 00:21:51.800 that he has given his one and only son to you 00:21:51.800 --> 00:21:53.620 that when you believe in him, 00:21:54.019 --> 00:21:56.880 you shall not perish but have eternal life. 00:21:57.860 --> 00:22:00.360 God did not send his son into the world 00:22:00.360 --> 00:22:01.420 to condemn the world, 00:22:01.820 --> 00:22:03.600 but to save the world through him. 00:22:04.660 --> 00:22:07.900 If you have not yet to believe in Jesus 00:22:07.900 --> 00:22:10.180 and accept God's relationship with you 00:22:10.180 --> 00:22:12.279 based on what he has done for you, 00:22:13.360 --> 00:22:14.700 what is holding you back? 00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:17.259 What are you pushing back on? 00:22:18.779 --> 00:22:21.180 Remember God said to Israel that 00:22:21.180 --> 00:22:24.680 if you obey God fully and keep God confident, 00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:26.580 then out of all nations, 00:22:26.740 --> 00:22:28.200 you will be God's treasured possession. 00:22:28.980 --> 00:22:31.640 It's so amazing that even though Israel 00:22:31.640 --> 00:22:33.100 failed to obey God fully, 00:22:33.620 --> 00:22:36.259 God still treat them as his treasured possession 00:22:36.259 --> 00:22:40.060 because of Jesus who fully obeyed God. 00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:44.019 And we can also be God's treasured possession 00:22:44.019 --> 00:22:45.320 because of Jesus. 00:22:45.920 -->
