00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.339
 You are listening to a message from Southwood Presbyterian Church in Huntsville, Alabama.

00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:10.500
! Our passion is to experience and express grace. Join us.

00:00:10.500 --> 00:00:10.500


00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:41.920
 Deep soul rest. Can you imagine that? When was the last time you felt deeply rested?

00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:52.879
 Will you close your eyes with me for a minute and try to go there? Envision some time where you felt

00:00:52.880 --> 00:01:04.159
 deep rest? Maybe it was pushing back from the table after Christmas dinner, your belly full,

00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:11.040
 your grandkids running around laughing, Christmas carols playing in the background.

00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:21.000
 Some of you I know, for you, the kids need to be napping, not running around. You're picturing

00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:28.900
 that and you're hearing waves ashore on the beach. You read your book. You talk to a friend.

00:01:32.099 --> 00:01:38.900
 Maybe the time you're picturing was after you'd finished mowing the grass or weeding the flower

00:01:38.900 --> 00:01:47.019
 bed or organizing the closet, whatever, and you're sipping ice-cold lemonade on the back porch and

00:01:47.019 --> 00:01:55.859
 smelling the freshly mowed grass and the birds are chirping. Maybe some of you are thinking of a moment in

00:01:55.859 --> 00:02:03.099
 this room after we'd sung that song or read that scripture that you love and you're coming to the

00:02:03.099 --> 00:02:12.900
 Lord's table and you could just breathe deep inside and feel at rest.

00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:21.960
 I suspect that some of you may be honest enough to admit right now, even with your eyes closed,

00:02:22.040 --> 00:02:31.580
 you can't hardly envision a time where you felt the feeling like that of deep satisfaction and

00:02:31.580 --> 00:02:37.099
 peace and nothing else was bombarding your mind, your senses all the time.

00:02:37.099 --> 00:02:51.659
 Maybe Jesus wants to invite you into that in your very soul deep down today. He already has, right? He's

00:02:51.659 --> 00:02:59.719
 already extended that invitation. Now Hebrews wants to extend it again to all of us and explain it to us

00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:10.400
 just a little bit more. You can look at Hebrews 4 now. That was a long time for some of you. We've arrived at Hebrews 4.

00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:20.979
 The author has just finished pleading with God's people not to harden our hearts like God's people in the wilderness

00:03:20.979 --> 00:03:21.979
 who didn't believe in the wilderness.

00:03:21.979 --> 00:03:27.060
 Who didn't believe him so they couldn't enter into the promised land because of their unbelief.

00:03:29.239 --> 00:03:35.539
 Chapter 4 verse 1. God's very word inviting you into rest.

00:03:37.539 --> 00:03:42.120
 Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands,

00:03:42.859 --> 00:03:47.000
 let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it.

00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:53.979
 For good news came to us just as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them because

00:03:53.979 --> 00:03:57.159
 they were not united by faith with those who listened.

00:03:58.500 --> 00:04:01.560
 For we who have believed enter that rest.

00:04:01.780 --> 00:04:07.159
 As he has said, as I swore in my wrath, they shall not enter my rest.

00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:10.900
 Although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.

00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:14.580
 For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way,

00:04:14.580 --> 00:04:20.300
 and God rested on the seventh day from all his works.

00:04:21.080 --> 00:04:22.720
 And again, in this passage, he said,

00:04:23.060 --> 00:04:25.780
 they shall not enter my rest.

00:04:26.960 --> 00:04:29.900
 Since therefore it remains for some to enter it,

00:04:30.139 --> 00:04:35.240
 and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience,

00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:37.819
 again he appoints a certain day.

00:04:38.139 --> 00:04:41.100
 Today, saying through David so long afterward,

00:04:41.100 --> 00:04:42.660
 in the words already quoted,

00:04:43.060 --> 00:04:47.040
 today if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.

00:04:48.180 --> 00:04:50.420
 For if Joshua had given them rest,

00:04:50.860 --> 00:04:53.620
 God would not have spoken of another day later on.

00:04:54.320 --> 00:04:58.939
 So then there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God.

00:04:59.200 --> 00:05:01.840
 For whoever has entered God's rest

00:05:01.840 --> 00:05:06.600
 has also rested from his works as God did from his.

00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:10.960
 Let us therefore strive to enter that rest

00:05:10.960 --> 00:05:15.360
 so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.

00:05:15.900 --> 00:05:18.620
 For the word of God is living and active,

00:05:20.260 --> 00:05:22.000
 sharper than any two-edged sword,

00:05:23.200 --> 00:05:26.040
 piercing to the division of soul and of spirit,

00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:27.320
 of joints and of marrow,

00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:31.020
 and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

00:05:31.019 --> 00:05:34.079
 And no creature is hidden from his sight,

00:05:34.219 --> 00:05:37.759
 but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him

00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:40.219
 to whom we must give account.

00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:43.699
 This is indeed God's word.

00:05:43.899 --> 00:05:44.939
 Let's ask for his help.

00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:51.979
 Father, you've given us something that is alive

00:05:51.979 --> 00:05:55.079
 and active and sharp.

00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:59.279
 the sword of your word,

00:05:59.620 --> 00:06:01.879
 and it cuts deep.

00:06:04.479 --> 00:06:05.639
 And if we'll listen,

00:06:05.859 --> 00:06:08.479
 it will show us things in our hearts,

00:06:08.579 --> 00:06:10.240
 sometimes things we don't wanna see.

00:06:12.899 --> 00:06:14.299
 Would you do that this morning?

00:06:14.919 --> 00:06:18.240
 Would you make us have soft hearts

00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:18.959
 that are open

00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:23.239
 to the surgery you would do on us?

00:06:23.819 --> 00:06:25.019
 Because we trust

00:06:25.019 --> 00:06:27.739
 that you're doing it for our good,

00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:28.819
 to heal us.

00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:32.039
 Help us.

00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:34.479
 Speak to us and help us hear

00:06:34.479 --> 00:06:35.939
 and respond.

00:06:36.799 --> 00:06:38.459
 In Jesus' name, amen.

00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:44.759
 My heart for us this morning

00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:46.879
 is that you not just listen,

00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:49.839
 but that together you taste

00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:53.019
 some of the rest that God offers,

00:06:53.159 --> 00:06:54.939
 at least enough of a taste

00:06:54.939 --> 00:06:57.339
 that it makes you long for more.

00:06:58.139 --> 00:06:58.399
 Okay?

00:06:59.659 --> 00:07:01.259
 I'm gonna try not to overdo

00:07:01.259 --> 00:07:02.839
 the explanation of this.

00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:05.180
 You may have noticed as we read,

00:07:05.259 --> 00:07:07.439
 the passage talks a lot about rest.

00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:10.240
 Took me hours of study to figure that out.

00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:13.519
 Just kidding.

00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:17.079
 But when you read it,

00:07:17.219 --> 00:07:18.319
 while it's obvious

00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:19.459
 it's talking about rest,

00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:20.659
 it may be a little tough

00:07:20.659 --> 00:07:21.259
 at first reading

00:07:21.259 --> 00:07:23.240
 to know even what he's talking about.

00:07:23.339 --> 00:07:25.779
 There's so many different things.

00:07:26.079 --> 00:07:26.939
 By rest,

00:07:27.099 --> 00:07:27.659
 do you mean

00:07:27.659 --> 00:07:30.359
 complete physical inactivity?

00:07:31.479 --> 00:07:32.279
 Doing nothing?

00:07:33.579 --> 00:07:34.240
 Do you mean

00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:37.500
 a Buddhist sense of nirvana,

00:07:37.879 --> 00:07:39.919
 like out-of-body experience

00:07:39.919 --> 00:07:40.959
 I'm gonna have?

00:07:40.959 --> 00:07:42.839
 Is it some kind of

00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:43.899
 out-of-date concept

00:07:43.899 --> 00:07:45.959
 of a slower pace of life

00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:47.560
 than I've ever experienced?

00:07:47.739 --> 00:07:48.959
 Is that...

00:07:49.979 --> 00:07:52.680
 Well, as he's talking about it,

00:07:52.699 --> 00:07:54.240
 the preacher of this sermon

00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:55.019
 to the Hebrews

00:07:55.019 --> 00:07:56.539
 once again quotes

00:07:56.539 --> 00:07:57.899
 other scripture passages

00:07:57.899 --> 00:07:59.359
 to help us understand

00:07:59.359 --> 00:08:00.019
 what he means.

00:08:00.500 --> 00:08:01.459
 So let me look back

00:08:01.459 --> 00:08:02.359
 at the rest

00:08:02.359 --> 00:08:03.779
 he keeps talking about

00:08:03.779 --> 00:08:05.759
 and help us see

00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:06.679
 that the rest

00:08:06.679 --> 00:08:07.839
 Jesus offers

00:08:07.839 --> 00:08:09.859
 for our souls

00:08:09.859 --> 00:08:11.719
 is,

00:08:11.859 --> 00:08:12.759
 these are my words,

00:08:13.179 --> 00:08:16.199
 God's joyful satisfaction

00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:18.019
 with his,

00:08:18.459 --> 00:08:19.719
 just reverse the words,

00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:21.959
 contented celebration

00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:25.620
 of finished work.

00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:28.679
 I think it will help

00:08:28.679 --> 00:08:29.759
 to look at the rest

00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:30.679
 in this passage

00:08:30.679 --> 00:08:31.479
 chronologically

00:08:31.479 --> 00:08:33.179
 in the Bible's story.

00:08:33.319 --> 00:08:33.839
 He's gonna hit

00:08:33.839 --> 00:08:35.539
 several different epics

00:08:35.539 --> 00:08:37.000
 in that story

00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:38.919
 and we learn here first,

00:08:39.179 --> 00:08:41.399
 God is the first one

00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:42.120
 to rest.

00:08:42.439 --> 00:08:43.579
 Verse four,

00:08:44.539 --> 00:08:45.240
 he's somewhere spoken

00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:46.139
 of the seventh day

00:08:46.139 --> 00:08:47.379
 in this way,

00:08:47.740 --> 00:08:48.939
 God rested

00:08:48.939 --> 00:08:50.199
 on the seventh day

00:08:50.199 --> 00:08:51.500
 from all his works.

00:08:52.719 --> 00:08:53.199
 And again,

00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:54.199
 in this passage,

00:08:54.299 --> 00:08:54.620
 he said,

00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:55.659
 they shall not enter

00:08:55.659 --> 00:08:57.360
 my rest.

00:08:57.559 --> 00:08:58.639
 It's God's first,

00:08:58.719 --> 00:08:58.860
 right?

00:08:58.860 --> 00:08:59.620
 If you look back

00:08:59.620 --> 00:09:00.600
 to Genesis 2,

00:09:00.680 --> 00:09:01.240
 you realize

00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:02.580
 God looks around

00:09:02.580 --> 00:09:04.519
 at his glorious creation

00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:06.379
 and he's just pronounced

00:09:06.379 --> 00:09:07.159
 good,

00:09:07.620 --> 00:09:08.440
 good,

00:09:08.860 --> 00:09:09.419
 good,

00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:11.480
 very good.

00:09:12.620 --> 00:09:14.080
 And he blessed

00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:15.820
 the seventh day.

00:09:16.220 --> 00:09:17.720
 How did he bless it?

00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:18.580
 He blessed it

00:09:18.580 --> 00:09:19.120
 by

00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:20.659
 resting.

00:09:22.300 --> 00:09:22.980
 Resting

00:09:22.980 --> 00:09:24.279
 is good.

00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:25.779
 Not just

00:09:25.779 --> 00:09:26.920
 necessary

00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:28.419
 because you're tired.

00:09:28.839 --> 00:09:30.059
 God wasn't tired

00:09:30.059 --> 00:09:30.599
 here.

00:09:31.579 --> 00:09:32.959
 He was satisfied.

00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:35.639
 He was joyful.

00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:36.459
 Maybe like that

00:09:36.459 --> 00:09:37.459
 grandparent

00:09:37.459 --> 00:09:38.259
 pushing back

00:09:38.259 --> 00:09:39.059
 from the table,

00:09:39.899 --> 00:09:40.779
 looking around

00:09:40.779 --> 00:09:42.139
 at the family

00:09:42.139 --> 00:09:43.360
 and the home

00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:45.279
 at a life's work.

00:09:47.179 --> 00:09:47.819
 Delightedly.

00:09:48.379 --> 00:09:50.079
 God was finished

00:09:50.079 --> 00:09:50.980
 with his work

00:09:50.980 --> 00:09:52.519
 of creation.

00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:53.759
 Now we know

00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:54.379
 when we say that,

00:09:54.379 --> 00:09:56.139
 God didn't cease

00:09:56.139 --> 00:09:57.779
 activity entirely.

00:09:57.939 --> 00:09:58.460
 He was still

00:09:58.460 --> 00:09:59.480
 upholding,

00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:00.179
 sustaining,

00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:00.879
 protecting,

00:10:01.139 --> 00:10:02.500
 preserving his creation.

00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:04.379
 Jesus says

00:10:04.379 --> 00:10:04.840
 his father

00:10:04.840 --> 00:10:06.220
 is always working.

00:10:07.500 --> 00:10:08.059
 But there is

00:10:08.059 --> 00:10:09.439
 this really

00:10:09.439 --> 00:10:10.320
 worthwhile

00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:11.519
 celebration

00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:13.000
 of the completion

00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:13.860
 of a massive

00:10:13.860 --> 00:10:14.480
 undertaking,

00:10:14.659 --> 00:10:14.840
 right?

00:10:14.939 --> 00:10:15.419
 Maybe you've

00:10:15.419 --> 00:10:16.240
 felt that.

00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:16.720
 In this case,

00:10:16.939 --> 00:10:17.759
 God's work

00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:18.740
 of creation.

00:10:20.059 --> 00:10:20.600
 This,

00:10:20.820 --> 00:10:21.759
 in some way,

00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:22.879
 is the rest

00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:24.240
 that the writer's

00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:25.220
 talking about.

00:10:25.419 --> 00:10:26.519
 My rest,

00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:27.860
 God says.

00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:28.960
 It's his

00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:29.439
 that he's gonna

00:10:29.439 --> 00:10:30.439
 invite us into.

00:10:30.899 --> 00:10:31.620
 That his people

00:10:31.620 --> 00:10:32.439
 have either failed

00:10:32.439 --> 00:10:33.240
 to enter into

00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:33.840
 or they're being

00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:34.960
 called to later

00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:35.819
 in this passage.

00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:38.500
 There's another

00:10:38.500 --> 00:10:39.340
 season of rest

00:10:39.340 --> 00:10:40.100
 highlighted here,

00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:40.860
 of course,

00:10:40.980 --> 00:10:41.639
 maybe the easiest

00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:42.419
 one to see.

00:10:42.819 --> 00:10:43.559
 It's the rest

00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:45.240
 in the promised land.

00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:47.360
 Here,

00:10:47.500 --> 00:10:47.840
 primarily,

00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:48.519
 when he's talking

00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:49.100
 about this,

00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:49.779
 this is rest

00:10:49.779 --> 00:10:50.720
 God was inviting

00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:51.740
 his people into

00:10:51.740 --> 00:10:52.740
 that they were

00:10:52.740 --> 00:10:53.639
 missing out on,

00:10:53.659 --> 00:10:53.860
 right?

00:10:53.959 --> 00:10:54.860
 40 years in the

00:10:54.860 --> 00:10:55.199
 wilderness.

00:10:55.879 --> 00:10:56.459
 Even though they

00:10:56.459 --> 00:10:57.539
 heard the invitation,

00:10:58.339 --> 00:11:00.000
 they missed it.

00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:01.720
 Now,

00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:02.600
 Joshua would

00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:03.379
 eventually

00:11:03.379 --> 00:11:04.980
 lead the next

00:11:04.980 --> 00:11:06.019
 generation into

00:11:06.019 --> 00:11:07.100
 the promised land

00:11:07.100 --> 00:11:07.559
 where they would

00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:08.000
 settle.

00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:09.019
 God would give

00:11:09.019 --> 00:11:09.839
 them rest

00:11:09.839 --> 00:11:11.439
 from all their

00:11:11.439 --> 00:11:11.980
 enemies,

00:11:12.459 --> 00:11:13.779
 all defeated,

00:11:13.980 --> 00:11:14.259
 right?

00:11:14.559 --> 00:11:15.639
 Before God's

00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:16.439
 people could

00:11:16.439 --> 00:11:17.519
 rest.

00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:20.100
 Of course,

00:11:20.899 --> 00:11:21.399
 who did the

00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:21.939
 work to make

00:11:21.939 --> 00:11:22.460
 sure that they

00:11:22.460 --> 00:11:22.740
 could?

00:11:23.419 --> 00:11:24.600
 It's very clear

00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:25.039
 as you read

00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:25.379
 through the book

00:11:25.379 --> 00:11:25.840
 of Joshua,

00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:26.679
 God is the

00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:26.860
 one,

00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:27.620
 whether it's

00:11:27.620 --> 00:11:28.600
 Jericho or

00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:29.059
 the Jordan

00:11:29.059 --> 00:11:29.620
 River or

00:11:29.620 --> 00:11:30.419
 whatever it is,

00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:31.159
 God is the

00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:31.899
 one doing

00:11:31.899 --> 00:11:32.840
 this work to

00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:33.240
 bring them

00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:33.539
 into the

00:11:33.539 --> 00:11:33.720
 land,

00:11:33.819 --> 00:11:34.379
 but then they

00:11:34.379 --> 00:11:35.059
 were able to

00:11:35.059 --> 00:11:35.879
 enjoy his

00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:36.460
 provision

00:11:36.460 --> 00:11:37.379
 joyfully,

00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:38.679
 gratefully,

00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:39.819
 peacefully,

00:11:40.579 --> 00:11:41.159
 plenty of

00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:41.799
 work to be

00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:42.360
 done in the

00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:43.299
 promised land,

00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:45.740
 but they could

00:11:45.740 --> 00:11:46.179
 do it while

00:11:46.179 --> 00:11:46.860
 at rest.

00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:49.379
 Notice in the

00:11:49.379 --> 00:11:50.100
 description of

00:11:50.100 --> 00:11:50.919
 promised land

00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:51.799
 rest that God

00:11:51.799 --> 00:11:52.600
 was giving his

00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:54.220
 people not the

00:11:54.220 --> 00:11:54.960
 full and final

00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:56.500
 rest, the rest

00:11:56.500 --> 00:11:57.179
 in him, but

00:11:57.179 --> 00:11:58.199
 rather giving them

00:11:58.199 --> 00:11:59.100
 a beautiful picture

00:11:59.100 --> 00:12:00.600
 of that rest.

00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:01.199
 That's why he

00:12:01.199 --> 00:12:01.779
 tells us in

00:12:01.779 --> 00:12:02.360
 verse 7,

00:12:03.100 --> 00:12:04.120
 several hundred

00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:05.799
 years after Joshua

00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:06.559
 brought the people

00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:07.159
 into the land,

00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:08.360
 David in Psalm

00:12:08.360 --> 00:12:09.579
 95 says,

00:12:09.819 --> 00:12:10.120
 today,

00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:12.360
 don't harden

00:12:12.360 --> 00:12:12.919
 your hearts,

00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:14.399
 but trust God's

00:12:14.399 --> 00:12:14.740
 voice.

00:12:14.899 --> 00:12:16.039
 Come and find

00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:17.139
 rest for your

00:12:17.139 --> 00:12:17.759
 souls.

00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:18.759
 Verse 8,

00:12:19.019 --> 00:12:20.099
 for if Joshua

00:12:20.099 --> 00:12:21.379
 had given them

00:12:21.379 --> 00:12:22.319
 rest, the real

00:12:22.319 --> 00:12:24.399
 thing, God would

00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:25.079
 not have spoken

00:12:25.079 --> 00:12:26.439
 of another day

00:12:26.439 --> 00:12:27.539
 later on.

00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:28.599
 Joshua did give

00:12:28.599 --> 00:12:29.579
 them some rest,

00:12:29.860 --> 00:12:30.099
 right?

00:12:30.379 --> 00:12:31.120
 Brought them into

00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:32.199
 the land, but

00:12:32.199 --> 00:12:33.899
 not entirely

00:12:33.899 --> 00:12:35.559
 God's rest,

00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:36.719
 complete with a

00:12:36.719 --> 00:12:38.480
 joyful satisfaction.

00:12:39.019 --> 00:12:39.939
 So the rest God

00:12:39.939 --> 00:12:40.659
 offers is more

00:12:40.659 --> 00:12:41.639
 than physical

00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:42.460
 inactivity,

00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:43.100
 it's more than

00:12:43.100 --> 00:12:44.639
 temporal peace

00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:45.659
 and no more

00:12:45.659 --> 00:12:47.699
 war, it's always

00:12:47.699 --> 00:12:49.019
 celebrating his

00:12:49.019 --> 00:12:49.919
 finished work,

00:12:50.419 --> 00:12:51.240
 in this case,

00:12:51.279 --> 00:12:51.819
 his work of

00:12:51.819 --> 00:12:53.019
 redemption from

00:12:53.019 --> 00:12:53.620
 their enemies

00:12:53.620 --> 00:12:55.139
 rather than

00:12:55.139 --> 00:12:55.860
 creation.

00:12:57.419 --> 00:12:58.720
 So the preacher

00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:00.939
 makes clear that

00:13:00.939 --> 00:13:02.360
 there is still a

00:13:02.360 --> 00:13:04.439
 rest for God's

00:13:04.439 --> 00:13:04.980
 people.

00:13:05.439 --> 00:13:06.580
 Generations after

00:13:06.580 --> 00:13:07.960
 Exodus and the

00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:08.779
 wilderness, the

00:13:08.779 --> 00:13:09.939
 promised land, and

00:13:09.940 --> 00:13:10.880
 the Psalms.

00:13:11.820 --> 00:13:13.500
 Verse 9, so then

00:13:13.500 --> 00:13:15.880
 there remains a

00:13:15.880 --> 00:13:18.040
 Sabbath rest for

00:13:18.040 --> 00:13:18.700
 the people of

00:13:18.700 --> 00:13:19.080
 God.

00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:20.620
 Don't miss this.

00:13:21.280 --> 00:13:22.600
 In this context,

00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:23.500
 what he's saying

00:13:23.500 --> 00:13:25.740
 is you and I can

00:13:25.740 --> 00:13:27.740
 still enter into

00:13:27.740 --> 00:13:28.920
 God's rest.

00:13:28.980 --> 00:13:29.560
 It's an invitation

00:13:29.560 --> 00:13:30.420
 to you.

00:13:30.940 --> 00:13:31.960
 It's an active,

00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:34.100
 present reality that

00:13:34.100 --> 00:13:35.460
 he invites us to

00:13:35.460 --> 00:13:36.780
 enjoy with him.

00:13:37.220 --> 00:13:37.600
 And then it

00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:38.680
 clearly goes beyond

00:13:38.680 --> 00:13:39.260
 this world.

00:13:39.259 --> 00:13:41.080
 It remains a rest

00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:42.019
 for God's people

00:13:42.019 --> 00:13:43.840
 always to enter

00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:44.259
 into.

00:13:44.639 --> 00:13:45.980
 We start tasting it

00:13:45.980 --> 00:13:47.539
 here, and it goes

00:13:47.539 --> 00:13:49.299
 on forever.

00:13:50.539 --> 00:13:51.980
 He's telling you

00:13:51.980 --> 00:13:53.819
 that you can be

00:13:53.819 --> 00:13:55.819
 joyfully satisfied.

00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:57.200
 You may not believe

00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:57.360
 that.

00:13:57.519 --> 00:13:59.139
 You can be joyfully

00:13:59.139 --> 00:14:00.600
 satisfied, that your

00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:02.519
 soul can begin to

00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:04.220
 settle into a

00:14:04.220 --> 00:14:06.399
 contented celebration,

00:14:06.399 --> 00:14:06.519
 salvation.

00:14:06.879 --> 00:14:07.939
 Not because you

00:14:07.939 --> 00:14:08.600
 just quit.

00:14:09.299 --> 00:14:10.819
 You just settled for

00:14:10.819 --> 00:14:13.319
 something less, but

00:14:13.319 --> 00:14:14.340
 because you finally

00:14:14.340 --> 00:14:15.959
 found the real

00:14:15.959 --> 00:14:17.379
 thing, the true

00:14:17.379 --> 00:14:19.819
 soul rest that you

00:14:19.819 --> 00:14:20.579
 were made for.

00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:24.500
 Before we wrap up

00:14:24.500 --> 00:14:25.439
 looking at this idea

00:14:25.439 --> 00:14:26.879
 of rest in this

00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:28.799
 passage, notice God's

00:14:28.799 --> 00:14:29.759
 rest that began in

00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:30.559
 the garden and is

00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:32.799
 offered to us here

00:14:32.799 --> 00:14:34.620
 with him is also in

00:14:34.620 --> 00:14:35.240
 the future.

00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:37.940
 In this passage, we

00:14:37.940 --> 00:14:38.899
 understand that because

00:14:38.899 --> 00:14:41.679
 it remains and

00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:42.519
 because the promised

00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:43.740
 land wasn't the real

00:14:43.740 --> 00:14:45.759
 thing, but rather a

00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:47.379
 sign, a pointer to

00:14:47.379 --> 00:14:49.200
 God's true rest.

00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:50.039
 Listen to how

00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:52.060
 Revelation speaks of

00:14:52.060 --> 00:14:52.220
 it.

00:14:52.940 --> 00:14:54.860
 Blessed, blessed

00:14:54.860 --> 00:14:56.740
 indeed, says the

00:14:56.740 --> 00:14:57.639
 spirit are those who

00:14:57.639 --> 00:14:58.720
 have died in the

00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:00.399
 Lord, that they may

00:15:00.399 --> 00:15:02.879
 rest from their

00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:03.840
 labors.

00:15:04.779 --> 00:15:06.679
 That's what is

00:15:06.679 --> 00:15:07.860
 offered to us that

00:15:07.860 --> 00:15:09.139
 we look forward to

00:15:09.139 --> 00:15:10.179
 even beyond this

00:15:10.179 --> 00:15:10.500
 life.

00:15:10.939 --> 00:15:11.779
 Once again, in this

00:15:11.779 --> 00:15:12.500
 passage, you notice

00:15:12.500 --> 00:15:13.639
 rest is what?

00:15:13.980 --> 00:15:14.860
 It's a blessing.

00:15:15.860 --> 00:15:18.039
 It's a good gift.

00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:20.500
 And in some way,

00:15:21.039 --> 00:15:22.279
 even eternally, we

00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:23.860
 cease from our

00:15:23.860 --> 00:15:24.240
 labors.

00:15:24.439 --> 00:15:26.579
 We rest from our

00:15:26.579 --> 00:15:27.079
 works.

00:15:27.079 --> 00:15:28.620
 As verse 10 told us,

00:15:28.620 --> 00:15:30.659
 we would have to in

00:15:30.659 --> 00:15:31.440
 God's rest.

00:15:31.560 --> 00:15:32.480
 God's rest involves

00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:34.440
 that we stop our

00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:34.940
 works.

00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:36.340
 There's a sense in

00:15:36.340 --> 00:15:37.519
 which work is

00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:39.399
 finished eternally.

00:15:40.539 --> 00:15:43.000
 We rest forever.

00:15:44.700 --> 00:15:45.639
 Thankfully, we know

00:15:45.639 --> 00:15:46.340
 by now, don't get

00:15:46.340 --> 00:15:47.299
 confused, there is

00:15:47.299 --> 00:15:48.120
 work in heaven.

00:15:49.019 --> 00:15:50.240
 We know by now that

00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:50.960
 doesn't mean that

00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:51.940
 there's total

00:15:51.940 --> 00:15:53.060
 inactivity, just

00:15:53.060 --> 00:15:54.720
 disconnection from

00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:55.899
 everything and

00:15:55.899 --> 00:15:57.360
 eternal boredom.

00:15:57.639 --> 00:15:59.340
 That's not what

00:15:59.340 --> 00:16:00.059
 he's describing.

00:16:00.899 --> 00:16:02.159
 He's describing a

00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:03.399
 never-ending party,

00:16:03.980 --> 00:16:04.179
 right?

00:16:05.079 --> 00:16:06.840
 Joyful celebration,

00:16:07.439 --> 00:16:09.439
 satisfaction, with

00:16:09.439 --> 00:16:10.720
 deep contentment.

00:16:11.139 --> 00:16:12.259
 How is that

00:16:12.259 --> 00:16:12.620
 possible?

00:16:13.740 --> 00:16:14.620
 With God.

00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:17.539
 Without burdens.

00:16:19.539 --> 00:16:20.840
 Without tears.

00:16:21.939 --> 00:16:23.299
 Without pain.

00:16:23.299 --> 00:16:25.740
 Don't that just

00:16:25.740 --> 00:16:26.120
 help you?

00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:26.959
 Don't you start

00:16:26.959 --> 00:16:28.139
 tasting rest when

00:16:28.139 --> 00:16:28.740
 you think about

00:16:28.740 --> 00:16:28.899
 that?

00:16:29.139 --> 00:16:30.199
 I'm with God.

00:16:30.500 --> 00:16:31.219
 I'm without anything

00:16:31.219 --> 00:16:32.019
 to burden me.

00:16:32.299 --> 00:16:32.899
 I'm without any

00:16:32.899 --> 00:16:34.939
 struggle or sorrow.

00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:38.979
 What I mostly

00:16:38.979 --> 00:16:39.699
 would like to do

00:16:39.699 --> 00:16:41.559
 is talk the rest

00:16:41.559 --> 00:16:42.419
 of our time about

00:16:42.419 --> 00:16:43.559
 how this passage

00:16:43.559 --> 00:16:44.859
 tells us to enter

00:16:44.859 --> 00:16:47.059
 into this rest.

00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:49.259
 It is such good

00:16:49.259 --> 00:16:49.500
 news.

00:16:49.620 --> 00:16:50.699
 It's so freeing.

00:16:51.019 --> 00:16:51.959
 It's so life-giving,

00:16:52.059 --> 00:16:52.719
 but it's so hard

00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:53.259
 for us.

00:16:54.060 --> 00:16:54.820
 But briefly,

00:16:54.920 --> 00:16:55.399
 before we do

00:16:55.399 --> 00:16:56.980
 that, I don't

00:16:56.980 --> 00:16:57.360
 want to skip

00:16:57.360 --> 00:16:58.399
 over the urgency

00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:01.019
 that God gives

00:17:01.019 --> 00:17:02.160
 this invitation.

00:17:02.700 --> 00:17:03.940
 This is not a

00:17:03.940 --> 00:17:04.259
 casual.

00:17:04.319 --> 00:17:04.900
 I know you get

00:17:04.900 --> 00:17:05.319
 something like

00:17:05.319 --> 00:17:05.460
 this.

00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:06.339
 Hey, come to

00:17:06.339 --> 00:17:07.140
 the party if you

00:17:07.140 --> 00:17:07.559
 like.

00:17:08.299 --> 00:17:09.620
 Drop by sometime.

00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:10.380
 Say hey.

00:17:11.500 --> 00:17:12.460
 If it's convenient.

00:17:13.600 --> 00:17:15.039
 That's not the

00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:15.819
 kind of invitation.

00:17:16.940 --> 00:17:17.480
 Listen to the

00:17:17.480 --> 00:17:17.700
 words.

00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:18.279
 Verse 1.

00:17:18.279 --> 00:17:20.839
 Let us fear

00:17:20.839 --> 00:17:22.680
 lest any of you

00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:23.240
 should seem to

00:17:23.240 --> 00:17:23.859
 have failed to

00:17:23.859 --> 00:17:24.359
 reach it.

00:17:25.579 --> 00:17:26.079
 He's saying

00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:27.240
 approach this

00:17:27.240 --> 00:17:28.859
 invitation to rest

00:17:28.859 --> 00:17:30.119
 with reverence,

00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:31.359
 with sobriety,

00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:32.539
 because God is

00:17:32.539 --> 00:17:33.460
 saying these are

00:17:33.460 --> 00:17:34.420
 matters of whether

00:17:34.420 --> 00:17:35.579
 you are with him

00:17:35.579 --> 00:17:37.079
 or not.

00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:38.319
 With him,

00:17:38.420 --> 00:17:39.859
 the greatest good,

00:17:40.180 --> 00:17:41.379
 the one your soul

00:17:41.379 --> 00:17:42.440
 was made for,

00:17:42.500 --> 00:17:43.279
 the one you so

00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:44.539
 deeply need.

00:17:44.539 --> 00:17:46.399
 And we're

00:17:46.399 --> 00:17:47.039
 reminded that

00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:48.460
 some of those

00:17:48.460 --> 00:17:49.700
 among his people

00:17:49.700 --> 00:17:50.539
 who have seen

00:17:50.539 --> 00:17:51.659
 and heard of him

00:17:51.659 --> 00:17:52.759
 missed out

00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:54.399
 on the rest he

00:17:54.399 --> 00:17:54.779
 offered.

00:17:55.379 --> 00:17:56.000
 They heard the

00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:56.779
 invitation you're

00:17:56.779 --> 00:17:58.099
 hearing in a

00:17:58.099 --> 00:17:58.799
 different generation,

00:17:58.940 --> 00:17:59.319
 in a different

00:17:59.319 --> 00:18:00.500
 way, and they

00:18:00.500 --> 00:18:01.259
 missed out.

00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:04.259
 Thus it's urgent

00:18:04.259 --> 00:18:05.799
 that you respond

00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:06.559
 while the promise

00:18:06.559 --> 00:18:07.480
 of entering his

00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:09.519
 rest still stands.

00:18:09.740 --> 00:18:11.000
 When is that?

00:18:11.000 --> 00:18:14.380
 Today.

00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:16.200
 Today.

00:18:16.700 --> 00:18:17.240
 It's like,

00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:18.000
 it reminds me of

00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:18.779
 the pastor who

00:18:18.779 --> 00:18:19.940
 once said that

00:18:19.940 --> 00:18:21.980
 Satan seeks to

00:18:21.980 --> 00:18:23.099
 convince us not

00:18:23.099 --> 00:18:24.539
 that there's no

00:18:24.539 --> 00:18:25.900
 heaven or there's

00:18:25.900 --> 00:18:27.960
 no hell, but that

00:18:27.960 --> 00:18:28.779
 there's no hurry.

00:18:29.980 --> 00:18:31.240
 That, oh, I'll get

00:18:31.240 --> 00:18:31.700
 to that later.

00:18:31.740 --> 00:18:32.420
 I'm going to just

00:18:32.420 --> 00:18:33.579
 keep rushing on

00:18:33.579 --> 00:18:34.500
 with life until

00:18:34.500 --> 00:18:35.259
 it's too late,

00:18:35.339 --> 00:18:36.500
 until my heart

00:18:36.500 --> 00:18:37.740
 has gotten hard

00:18:37.740 --> 00:18:38.819
 to hearing God's

00:18:38.819 --> 00:18:39.819
 voice called to

00:18:39.819 --> 00:18:40.559
 me over and

00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:41.679
 over and over.

00:18:44.319 --> 00:18:45.720
 No, the preacher

00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:47.879
 says, today strive.

00:18:48.220 --> 00:18:49.220
 Make every effort

00:18:49.220 --> 00:18:51.559
 to enter God's

00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:52.579
 rest.

00:18:53.460 --> 00:18:54.259
 Friends, please

00:18:54.259 --> 00:18:55.839
 don't file what

00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:56.659
 we're about to

00:18:56.659 --> 00:18:58.539
 hear about how

00:18:58.539 --> 00:18:59.500
 to enter God's

00:18:59.500 --> 00:19:00.500
 rest under

00:19:00.500 --> 00:19:02.679
 optional or

00:19:02.679 --> 00:19:03.619
 unimportant

00:19:03.619 --> 00:19:05.259
 things.

00:19:06.299 --> 00:19:07.500
 How tragic

00:19:07.500 --> 00:19:08.319
 would it be

00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:10.419
 for anyone here

00:19:10.419 --> 00:19:11.200
 this morning

00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:12.859
 to hear this

00:19:12.859 --> 00:19:13.659
 invitation,

00:19:14.339 --> 00:19:15.099
 to have it

00:19:15.099 --> 00:19:16.339
 extended to you

00:19:16.339 --> 00:19:17.859
 again and to

00:19:17.859 --> 00:19:19.619
 miss out on

00:19:19.619 --> 00:19:21.220
 true rest forever,

00:19:21.439 --> 00:19:22.480
 never to know

00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:23.819
 what you really

00:19:23.819 --> 00:19:24.500
 were made to

00:19:24.500 --> 00:19:25.419
 experience.

00:19:26.259 --> 00:19:27.460
 Listen to the

00:19:27.460 --> 00:19:28.460
 invitation and

00:19:28.460 --> 00:19:29.819
 reply, please,

00:19:30.019 --> 00:19:30.859
 please reply.

00:19:31.980 --> 00:19:32.879
 Verse 11 boils it

00:19:32.879 --> 00:19:33.559
 down for us.

00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:35.919
 Let us

00:19:35.919 --> 00:19:37.099
 therefore strive

00:19:37.099 --> 00:19:38.379
 to enter that

00:19:38.379 --> 00:19:39.700
 rest so that

00:19:39.700 --> 00:19:40.299
 no one may

00:19:40.299 --> 00:19:41.099
 fall by the

00:19:41.099 --> 00:19:41.859
 same sort

00:19:41.859 --> 00:19:43.220
 of disobedience.

00:19:43.299 --> 00:19:43.740
 Don't let it

00:19:43.740 --> 00:19:44.359
 happen to you.

00:19:44.619 --> 00:19:45.259
 Don't get left

00:19:45.259 --> 00:19:46.240
 out in the

00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:47.319
 wilderness like

00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:47.720
 them.

00:19:48.839 --> 00:19:49.200
 Instead,

00:19:49.419 --> 00:19:50.099
 strive.

00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:51.460
 Make every

00:19:51.460 --> 00:19:52.000
 effort.

00:19:52.539 --> 00:19:53.099
 Urgently

00:19:53.099 --> 00:19:54.019
 prioritize

00:19:54.019 --> 00:19:57.679
 this rest.

00:19:58.940 --> 00:19:59.740
 Now that's

00:19:59.740 --> 00:20:00.220
 confusing.

00:20:00.220 --> 00:20:01.680
 That feels

00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:02.000
 like a

00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:02.519
 paradox,

00:20:02.660 --> 00:20:02.819
 right?

00:20:03.299 --> 00:20:04.519
 Work hard

00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:06.960
 to rest.

00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:08.200
 You know,

00:20:08.460 --> 00:20:09.660
 get really

00:20:09.660 --> 00:20:10.940
 focused on

00:20:10.940 --> 00:20:12.319
 calming down.

00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:14.819
 What's he

00:20:14.819 --> 00:20:15.680
 talking about?

00:20:15.819 --> 00:20:16.579
 What does it

00:20:16.579 --> 00:20:17.319
 look like?

00:20:17.420 --> 00:20:17.900
 How can we

00:20:17.900 --> 00:20:18.620
 not just brush

00:20:18.620 --> 00:20:19.539
 that aside and

00:20:19.539 --> 00:20:20.480
 say, ah, it

00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:21.539
 was exaggeration,

00:20:21.720 --> 00:20:22.900
 strive to enter,

00:20:23.019 --> 00:20:23.660
 it's no big

00:20:23.660 --> 00:20:24.220
 deal, really?

00:20:24.860 --> 00:20:25.779
 No, he's saying

00:20:25.779 --> 00:20:26.600
 something important.

00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:27.440
 What does it

00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:28.440
 look like when

00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:30.320
 we enter Jesus'

00:20:30.700 --> 00:20:31.259
 rest?

00:20:33.120 --> 00:20:33.740
 Can we just

00:20:33.740 --> 00:20:34.160
 take a couple

00:20:34.160 --> 00:20:34.860
 minutes and be

00:20:34.860 --> 00:20:35.960
 honest that most

00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:36.700
 of us know what

00:20:36.700 --> 00:20:37.980
 it doesn't look

00:20:37.980 --> 00:20:38.380
 like?

00:20:39.980 --> 00:20:41.100
 If the rest

00:20:41.100 --> 00:20:41.700
 we're talking

00:20:41.700 --> 00:20:42.940
 about is joyful

00:20:42.940 --> 00:20:44.380
 satisfaction,

00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:45.740
 contented

00:20:45.740 --> 00:20:46.680
 celebration,

00:20:47.100 --> 00:20:48.580
 finished work,

00:20:49.940 --> 00:20:51.620
 it doesn't look

00:20:51.620 --> 00:20:52.200
 a lot like

00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:53.440
 21st century

00:20:53.440 --> 00:20:54.519
 America, does

00:20:54.519 --> 00:20:54.700
 it?

00:20:54.700 --> 00:20:57.500
 people trying

00:20:57.500 --> 00:20:58.460
 to control

00:20:58.460 --> 00:20:59.039
 our own

00:20:59.039 --> 00:20:59.740
 lives or

00:20:59.740 --> 00:21:00.620
 perhaps having

00:21:00.620 --> 00:21:01.259
 given up on

00:21:01.259 --> 00:21:01.799
 controlling our

00:21:01.799 --> 00:21:02.200
 own lives,

00:21:02.279 --> 00:21:02.900
 trying desperately

00:21:02.900 --> 00:21:03.580
 to control our

00:21:03.580 --> 00:21:04.480
 children's lives

00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:06.220
 or our

00:21:06.220 --> 00:21:07.420
 neighbors or

00:21:07.420 --> 00:21:07.920
 our coworkers

00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:09.039
 or our world.

00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:11.680
 Somewhere we're

00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:12.180
 going to find

00:21:12.180 --> 00:21:12.360
 it.

00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:13.980
 Y'all, even the

00:21:13.980 --> 00:21:15.039
 most successful

00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:15.720
 of us, those

00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:16.559
 who control the

00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:17.759
 best, are

00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:19.299
 tired, tired

00:21:19.299 --> 00:21:19.840
 of it.

00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:21.920
 There's always

00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:22.740
 something more

00:21:22.740 --> 00:21:23.440
 to do because

00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:25.299
 deep down, why

00:21:25.299 --> 00:21:25.740
 do we have to

00:21:25.740 --> 00:21:26.339
 do those things?

00:21:26.579 --> 00:21:27.019
 Because deep

00:21:27.019 --> 00:21:27.480
 down there's

00:21:27.480 --> 00:21:28.259
 always something

00:21:28.259 --> 00:21:29.579
 else to prove,

00:21:29.620 --> 00:21:30.140
 isn't there?

00:21:30.740 --> 00:21:31.720
 Someone else to

00:21:31.720 --> 00:21:32.720
 control, something

00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:33.779
 else to fix.

00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:34.519
 It's not all

00:21:34.519 --> 00:21:35.259
 right, it's not

00:21:35.259 --> 00:21:35.819
 all the way it

00:21:35.819 --> 00:21:36.339
 should be.

00:21:38.140 --> 00:21:39.099
 We know God's

00:21:39.099 --> 00:21:40.339
 joyful satisfaction

00:21:40.339 --> 00:21:41.980
 does not look

00:21:41.980 --> 00:21:43.200
 like an impatient

00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:44.779
 parent lashing

00:21:44.779 --> 00:21:45.680
 out at a stubborn

00:21:45.680 --> 00:21:46.180
 toddler.

00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:49.500
 We know God's

00:21:49.500 --> 00:21:50.500
 rest does not

00:21:50.500 --> 00:21:51.359
 look like a

00:21:51.359 --> 00:21:52.399
 ranting social

00:21:52.399 --> 00:21:53.759
 media feed that

00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:55.319
 reflects a deeply

00:21:55.319 --> 00:21:56.179
 discontented

00:21:56.179 --> 00:21:56.539
 heart.

00:21:58.819 --> 00:21:59.519
 We know

00:21:59.519 --> 00:22:00.240
 contented

00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:01.259
 celebration does

00:22:01.259 --> 00:22:02.539
 not look like a

00:22:02.539 --> 00:22:03.479
 frantic student

00:22:03.479 --> 00:22:04.500
 anxiously awaiting

00:22:04.500 --> 00:22:05.399
 test scores to

00:22:05.399 --> 00:22:06.119
 decide if life's

00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:06.759
 even worth living

00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:07.240
 for the next

00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:07.819
 four years.

00:22:09.479 --> 00:22:10.419
 We know Jesus

00:22:10.419 --> 00:22:11.379
 is not inviting

00:22:11.379 --> 00:22:12.119
 us into being a

00:22:12.119 --> 00:22:13.199
 controlling boss

00:22:13.199 --> 00:22:14.379
 who manipulates

00:22:14.379 --> 00:22:15.519
 and distrusts

00:22:15.519 --> 00:22:16.439
 and yells when

00:22:16.439 --> 00:22:17.039
 someone makes

00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:17.779
 him look bad.

00:22:19.199 --> 00:22:20.099
 But we've all

00:22:20.099 --> 00:22:20.939
 been those people.

00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:22.819
 at times,

00:22:22.899 --> 00:22:23.319
 haven't we?

00:22:25.559 --> 00:22:26.299
 We've all

00:22:26.299 --> 00:22:27.819
 desperately tried

00:22:27.819 --> 00:22:28.959
 to work ourselves

00:22:28.959 --> 00:22:30.399
 into significance,

00:22:30.679 --> 00:22:31.679
 into comfort,

00:22:31.879 --> 00:22:32.819
 into success,

00:22:33.219 --> 00:22:34.139
 into rest.

00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:37.359
 I want to

00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:38.159
 suggest to you

00:22:38.159 --> 00:22:38.859
 something that

00:22:38.859 --> 00:22:39.559
 might seem,

00:22:40.099 --> 00:22:40.740
 as you actually

00:22:40.740 --> 00:22:41.419
 think about it,

00:22:41.459 --> 00:22:42.079
 too good to be

00:22:42.079 --> 00:22:42.299
 true.

00:22:42.579 --> 00:22:43.599
 What if the rest

00:22:43.599 --> 00:22:44.679
 Jesus offers

00:22:44.679 --> 00:22:46.159
 actually involves

00:22:46.159 --> 00:22:47.259
 you needing to

00:22:47.259 --> 00:22:48.859
 do nothing else?

00:22:48.859 --> 00:22:48.979
 rest?

00:22:49.819 --> 00:22:50.740
 What if there was

00:22:50.740 --> 00:22:52.439
 not yet one more

00:22:52.439 --> 00:22:53.159
 thing you needed

00:22:53.159 --> 00:22:53.819
 to put on your

00:22:53.819 --> 00:22:55.059
 list of things to

00:22:55.059 --> 00:22:56.139
 do in order to

00:22:56.139 --> 00:22:58.179
 find rest?

00:22:58.179 --> 00:22:59.740
 What if it looked

00:22:59.740 --> 00:23:01.919
 like someone who,

00:23:02.719 --> 00:23:03.439
 who when life

00:23:03.439 --> 00:23:04.740
 jostled him,

00:23:06.139 --> 00:23:08.539
 stood firm and

00:23:08.539 --> 00:23:09.399
 was able to

00:23:09.399 --> 00:23:12.579
 remain calm and

00:23:12.579 --> 00:23:14.779
 to listen to a

00:23:14.779 --> 00:23:17.079
 child crying or to

00:23:17.079 --> 00:23:18.579
 comfort an anxious

00:23:18.579 --> 00:23:19.740
 friend because

00:23:19.740 --> 00:23:22.639
 you had rest?

00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:22.720
 rest?

00:23:24.500 --> 00:23:25.180
 I want to give you

00:23:25.180 --> 00:23:26.020
 a picture of this

00:23:26.020 --> 00:23:26.520
 for what we're

00:23:26.520 --> 00:23:27.520
 about to unpack.

00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:30.740
 Recently, I was

00:23:30.740 --> 00:23:31.520
 in the Atlanta

00:23:31.520 --> 00:23:32.040
 airport.

00:23:32.460 --> 00:23:33.220
 It's a great place

00:23:33.220 --> 00:23:33.680
 of rest.

00:23:34.680 --> 00:23:36.200
 And I needed to

00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:36.960
 get to the next

00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:37.560
 flight quickly.

00:23:37.700 --> 00:23:38.240
 I had to take one

00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:38.920
 of those airport

00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:39.400
 shuttles.

00:23:40.259 --> 00:23:41.340
 I had just enough

00:23:41.340 --> 00:23:42.060
 time, I thought,

00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:43.500
 to grab a smoothie

00:23:43.500 --> 00:23:45.620
 and then to run to

00:23:45.620 --> 00:23:46.360
 catch the shuttle.

00:23:46.560 --> 00:23:48.200
 So I didn't slow

00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:48.740
 down for other

00:23:48.740 --> 00:23:49.040
 things.

00:23:49.100 --> 00:23:49.600
 So here I was

00:23:49.600 --> 00:23:50.320
 with my carry-on,

00:23:50.380 --> 00:23:50.920
 my smoothie.

00:23:50.920 --> 00:23:52.259
 I had my coat

00:23:52.259 --> 00:23:53.539
 off so hot on the

00:23:53.539 --> 00:23:54.560
 plane, carrying the

00:23:54.560 --> 00:23:56.680
 coat laptop bag, and

00:23:56.680 --> 00:23:57.519
 needed the phone out

00:23:57.519 --> 00:23:58.160
 to make sure I didn't

00:23:58.160 --> 00:23:59.259
 miss boarding for the

00:23:59.259 --> 00:24:00.000
 next flight, right?

00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:00.560
 So I mean, I'm

00:24:00.560 --> 00:24:01.220
 probably looking a

00:24:01.220 --> 00:24:02.480
 little bit strange.

00:24:03.300 --> 00:24:04.560
 And I made it down,

00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:05.480
 rushed into the

00:24:05.480 --> 00:24:06.740
 shuttle, just in time

00:24:06.740 --> 00:24:07.779
 to get on board and

00:24:07.779 --> 00:24:08.960
 hear the voice remind

00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:11.340
 me to hold on to

00:24:11.340 --> 00:24:11.660
 something.

00:24:13.600 --> 00:24:14.779
 I looked up at the

00:24:14.779 --> 00:24:16.019
 door in front of me

00:24:16.019 --> 00:24:16.539
 and it said, you

00:24:16.539 --> 00:24:17.220
 know, I don't

00:24:17.220 --> 00:24:17.820
 remember the exact

00:24:17.820 --> 00:24:19.240
 words, but make

00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:20.059
 sure you hold on,

00:24:20.319 --> 00:24:21.319
 sudden stops or

00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:21.599
 whatever.

00:24:22.259 --> 00:24:23.019
 And I thought, that's

00:24:23.019 --> 00:24:23.420
 true.

00:24:24.420 --> 00:24:25.500
 That is correct.

00:24:25.660 --> 00:24:27.039
 I've heard that

00:24:27.039 --> 00:24:27.319
 before.

00:24:27.359 --> 00:24:27.779
 That's really

00:24:27.779 --> 00:24:28.279
 important.

00:24:30.099 --> 00:24:30.980
 But I don't have a

00:24:30.980 --> 00:24:31.640
 free hand.

00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:35.140
 And I'm pretty

00:24:35.140 --> 00:24:35.740
 strong.

00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:37.039
 This is what's

00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:37.599
 going through my

00:24:37.599 --> 00:24:37.839
 mind.

00:24:39.480 --> 00:24:40.579
 I'm stable.

00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:43.180
 I can stand.

00:24:44.299 --> 00:24:44.960
 And sure enough,

00:24:45.460 --> 00:24:46.700
 the start was just

00:24:46.700 --> 00:24:47.200
 fine.

00:24:47.680 --> 00:24:49.039
 So I let my guard

00:24:49.039 --> 00:24:49.400
 down.

00:24:49.799 --> 00:24:50.380
 And there I was

00:24:50.380 --> 00:24:51.779
 sipping on my

00:24:51.779 --> 00:24:53.299
 smoothie when the

00:24:53.299 --> 00:24:55.259
 next stop got me.

00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:56.880
 It wasn't pretty.

00:24:56.960 --> 00:24:57.480
 I'm going to try not

00:24:57.480 --> 00:24:59.220
 to reenact it too

00:24:59.220 --> 00:24:59.460
 much.

00:24:59.740 --> 00:25:00.460
 I do want you to

00:25:00.460 --> 00:25:01.080
 know I did not

00:25:01.080 --> 00:25:02.200
 actually hit the

00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:03.240
 ground, okay?

00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:05.120
 But in order for

00:25:05.120 --> 00:25:06.059
 that not to happen,

00:25:06.220 --> 00:25:08.039
 I did drop the

00:25:08.039 --> 00:25:09.380
 phone, the laptop

00:25:09.380 --> 00:25:10.380
 bag, and the

00:25:10.380 --> 00:25:10.660
 coat.

00:25:10.980 --> 00:25:12.019
 They all hit.

00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:13.940
 And I let go of

00:25:13.940 --> 00:25:14.880
 them and just at the

00:25:14.880 --> 00:25:15.860
 last moment was able

00:25:15.859 --> 00:25:17.299
 to grab that pole

00:25:17.299 --> 00:25:17.799
 that I could have

00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:18.439
 been holding on to

00:25:18.439 --> 00:25:19.379
 to begin with.

00:25:19.939 --> 00:25:20.559
 You also need to

00:25:20.559 --> 00:25:21.199
 know I did not

00:25:21.199 --> 00:25:21.979
 drop the smoothie.

00:25:22.859 --> 00:25:24.139
 Somehow I dropped

00:25:24.139 --> 00:25:25.259
 the right things and

00:25:25.259 --> 00:25:26.339
 held on to that

00:25:26.339 --> 00:25:26.539
 one.

00:25:27.679 --> 00:25:28.419
 Saved me from

00:25:28.419 --> 00:25:29.299
 further embarrassment

00:25:29.299 --> 00:25:29.879
 and injury.

00:25:31.639 --> 00:25:33.299
 But rest in that

00:25:33.299 --> 00:25:35.699
 moment looked like

00:25:35.699 --> 00:25:39.119
 letting go and

00:25:39.119 --> 00:25:39.799
 holding on.

00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:43.199
 Letting go and

00:25:43.199 --> 00:25:43.819
 holding on.

00:25:43.819 --> 00:25:44.519
 That's what God

00:25:44.519 --> 00:25:45.079
 through Hebrews

00:25:45.079 --> 00:25:46.059
 wants to tell us

00:25:46.059 --> 00:25:47.139
 to do today.

00:25:47.359 --> 00:25:48.240
 Both of those

00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:48.659
 things.

00:25:49.139 --> 00:25:50.079
 First, let go.

00:25:51.700 --> 00:25:54.279
 Let go of your

00:25:54.279 --> 00:25:55.039
 own works.

00:25:55.859 --> 00:25:56.759
 Boy, this is hard.

00:25:57.960 --> 00:25:58.659
 The theological

00:25:58.659 --> 00:26:00.039
 word for this, at

00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:00.740
 least one of them,

00:26:01.200 --> 00:26:01.859
 is repentance.

00:26:04.259 --> 00:26:05.359
 Notice verse 10.

00:26:06.740 --> 00:26:08.259
 Whoever has entered

00:26:08.259 --> 00:26:10.519
 God's rest has

00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:13.059
 also rested from

00:26:13.059 --> 00:26:15.359
 his works as God

00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:16.299
 did from his.

00:26:16.759 --> 00:26:18.000
 To enter God's

00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:21.539
 rest, first stop.

00:26:22.299 --> 00:26:24.879
 Let go of your

00:26:24.879 --> 00:26:25.759
 own works.

00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:27.059
 Here's why.

00:26:28.660 --> 00:26:30.279
 If rest is this

00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:32.259
 joyful satisfaction

00:26:32.259 --> 00:26:34.119
 with finished work,

00:26:34.119 --> 00:26:37.739
 how can that ever be

00:26:37.739 --> 00:26:38.459
 yours?

00:26:39.039 --> 00:26:41.559
 How could you ever do

00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:44.619
 enough for God?

00:26:45.539 --> 00:26:47.000
 How could you ever be

00:26:47.000 --> 00:26:49.479
 certain that you'd done

00:26:49.479 --> 00:26:50.959
 enough for eternity?

00:26:51.819 --> 00:26:54.000
 That you'd found rest?

00:26:54.059 --> 00:26:54.839
 That you were good

00:26:54.839 --> 00:26:56.959
 enough for God?

00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:00.539
 The finished work

00:27:00.539 --> 00:27:01.640
 to give you

00:27:01.640 --> 00:27:03.019
 his rest

00:27:03.019 --> 00:27:04.880
 has to be

00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:06.600
 his work.

00:27:07.059 --> 00:27:07.900
 Really important.

00:27:08.299 --> 00:27:09.259
 It's just the same

00:27:09.259 --> 00:27:10.240
 with creation, right?

00:27:10.579 --> 00:27:11.579
 It's just the same

00:27:11.579 --> 00:27:12.640
 in the promised land.

00:27:13.079 --> 00:27:13.960
 God has actually been

00:27:13.960 --> 00:27:14.819
 teaching his people

00:27:14.819 --> 00:27:16.039
 this for thousands

00:27:16.039 --> 00:27:16.579
 of years.

00:27:16.680 --> 00:27:17.519
 They just miss it

00:27:17.519 --> 00:27:18.400
 most of the time.

00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:20.000
 It's especially

00:27:20.000 --> 00:27:20.640
 important.

00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:22.539
 He really drives it

00:27:22.539 --> 00:27:23.720
 home when our sins

00:27:23.720 --> 00:27:24.779
 are being handled.

00:27:25.279 --> 00:27:26.120
 How's this going to

00:27:26.120 --> 00:27:26.940
 work when our

00:27:26.940 --> 00:27:27.840
 sins are being

00:27:27.840 --> 00:27:28.240
 dealt with?

00:27:28.320 --> 00:27:29.019
 All the way back

00:27:29.019 --> 00:27:30.420
 to when he instituted

00:27:30.420 --> 00:27:31.580
 the day of atonement

00:27:31.580 --> 00:27:32.480
 for his people.

00:27:32.580 --> 00:27:33.779
 It was a day each year

00:27:33.779 --> 00:27:34.779
 that a goat

00:27:34.779 --> 00:27:36.259
 was going visually

00:27:36.259 --> 00:27:37.580
 to bear away

00:27:37.580 --> 00:27:39.360
 the sins of the people

00:27:39.360 --> 00:27:40.500
 from the camp.

00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:42.059
 God says,

00:27:42.940 --> 00:27:44.019
 on that day

00:27:44.019 --> 00:27:45.440
 in Leviticus 16,

00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:46.920
 you shall do

00:27:46.920 --> 00:27:48.759
 no work.

00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:51.120
 Because atonement,

00:27:51.680 --> 00:27:53.220
 forgiveness for your sins,

00:27:53.700 --> 00:27:54.860
 it's going to be

00:27:54.860 --> 00:27:56.400
 made for you.

00:27:56.400 --> 00:27:57.780
 It is a Sabbath

00:27:57.780 --> 00:28:00.240
 of solemn rest.

00:28:00.440 --> 00:28:00.600
 Why?

00:28:00.740 --> 00:28:01.700
 Don't miss it,

00:28:01.800 --> 00:28:02.420
 God says.

00:28:03.200 --> 00:28:04.300
 When the work

00:28:04.300 --> 00:28:04.860
 is done

00:28:04.860 --> 00:28:05.800
 to make you

00:28:05.800 --> 00:28:06.720
 right with me,

00:28:06.840 --> 00:28:07.820
 to keep us

00:28:07.820 --> 00:28:08.780
 in relationship,

00:28:09.180 --> 00:28:10.019
 you're going

00:28:10.019 --> 00:28:10.720
 to do

00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:12.380
 none of it.

00:28:13.600 --> 00:28:14.259
 And I don't want

00:28:14.259 --> 00:28:14.960
 you to miss that.

00:28:15.259 --> 00:28:16.180
 You do

00:28:16.180 --> 00:28:18.220
 no work.

00:28:18.880 --> 00:28:19.040
 So,

00:28:19.780 --> 00:28:20.700
 if you're going

00:28:20.700 --> 00:28:21.759
 to make every effort

00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:22.660
 to rest,

00:28:23.259 --> 00:28:24.259
 the preacher says,

00:28:24.259 --> 00:28:25.440
 you need to be

00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:26.140
 exposed

00:28:26.140 --> 00:28:27.640
 before God.

00:28:27.640 --> 00:28:29.079
 How insufficient

00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:30.279
 on your own

00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:31.440
 you really are.

00:28:31.640 --> 00:28:32.240
 That is the

00:28:32.240 --> 00:28:33.420
 primary reasoning

00:28:33.420 --> 00:28:34.460
 behind the famous

00:28:34.460 --> 00:28:35.279
 verses about

00:28:35.279 --> 00:28:36.140
 God's word

00:28:36.140 --> 00:28:37.559
 as a living

00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:38.700
 and active

00:28:38.700 --> 00:28:40.259
 two-edged sword

00:28:40.259 --> 00:28:41.519
 that exposes

00:28:41.519 --> 00:28:43.279
 us to our souls

00:28:43.279 --> 00:28:44.359
 so that even

00:28:44.359 --> 00:28:45.039
 the motives

00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:46.019
 you don't realize

00:28:46.019 --> 00:28:47.099
 you have

00:28:47.099 --> 00:28:48.259
 are seen

00:28:48.259 --> 00:28:49.480
 by God.

00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:49.519
 God,

00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:50.500
 this is a little

00:28:50.500 --> 00:28:51.180
 scary.

00:28:52.599 --> 00:28:52.779
 Now,

00:28:52.940 --> 00:28:54.799
 you're rightly,

00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:55.579
 you're supposed

00:28:55.579 --> 00:28:56.460
 to feel the sense

00:28:56.460 --> 00:28:57.519
 of I'm undone.

00:28:57.980 --> 00:28:58.539
 No one

00:28:58.539 --> 00:29:00.180
 is good enough.

00:29:00.920 --> 00:29:02.059
 You've got

00:29:02.059 --> 00:29:03.039
 now to let go

00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:03.579
 of your

00:29:03.579 --> 00:29:04.740
 good works

00:29:04.740 --> 00:29:05.539
 and cling

00:29:05.539 --> 00:29:06.299
 to Him.

00:29:09.200 --> 00:29:10.519
 I don't think

00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:11.079
 we struggle

00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:12.559
 to realize

00:29:12.559 --> 00:29:14.059
 striving

00:29:14.059 --> 00:29:14.880
 to rest.

00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:16.780
 We know

00:29:16.780 --> 00:29:17.320
 what it's like

00:29:17.320 --> 00:29:18.200
 to have a long

00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:19.600
 list of things

00:29:19.600 --> 00:29:20.640
 to work on

00:29:20.640 --> 00:29:22.940
 before we can rest.

00:29:23.700 --> 00:29:24.780
 We have to finish

00:29:24.780 --> 00:29:25.500
 the list, right?

00:29:25.740 --> 00:29:27.160
 To check it all off.

00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:28.160
 That's why you even

00:29:28.160 --> 00:29:28.880
 sit at a beach

00:29:28.880 --> 00:29:29.820
 on vacation

00:29:29.820 --> 00:29:31.640
 and your soul

00:29:31.640 --> 00:29:33.220
 is not at rest.

00:29:33.520 --> 00:29:34.160
 Maybe everything

00:29:34.160 --> 00:29:35.180
 else is slowed down

00:29:35.180 --> 00:29:36.460
 but the phone

00:29:36.460 --> 00:29:36.860
 buzzes

00:29:36.860 --> 00:29:37.440
 and it's news

00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:38.260
 from back home

00:29:38.260 --> 00:29:39.780
 and what really

00:29:39.780 --> 00:29:40.880
 interrupts my rest

00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:41.800
 is that I can't

00:29:41.800 --> 00:29:42.720
 control it.

00:29:42.720 --> 00:29:45.740
 The kids

00:29:45.740 --> 00:29:46.440
 complain

00:29:46.440 --> 00:29:47.819
 but what really

00:29:47.819 --> 00:29:49.480
 interrupts my rest

00:29:49.480 --> 00:29:50.460
 is feeling like

00:29:50.460 --> 00:29:51.039
 I'm not a good

00:29:51.039 --> 00:29:51.860
 enough parent.

00:29:53.019 --> 00:29:53.539
 That doesn't go

00:29:53.539 --> 00:29:54.360
 away at the beach.

00:29:56.620 --> 00:29:57.460
 To taste

00:29:57.460 --> 00:29:58.420
 even a day

00:29:58.420 --> 00:29:58.940
 of rest

00:29:58.940 --> 00:29:59.600
 think of all

00:29:59.600 --> 00:30:00.059
 the things

00:30:00.059 --> 00:30:00.299
 you're going

00:30:00.299 --> 00:30:00.700
 to have to

00:30:00.700 --> 00:30:01.339
 let go of.

00:30:01.579 --> 00:30:01.759
 I'm going to

00:30:01.759 --> 00:30:02.200
 have to let go

00:30:02.200 --> 00:30:02.860
 of my phone.

00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:03.360
 I'm going to

00:30:03.360 --> 00:30:03.980
 have to let go

00:30:03.980 --> 00:30:04.740
 of my fearful

00:30:04.740 --> 00:30:05.900
 grip of control.

00:30:06.339 --> 00:30:06.920
 Let go of

00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:07.860
 outcomes

00:30:07.860 --> 00:30:09.279
 as Bill Nash

00:30:09.279 --> 00:30:10.799
 helpfully reminds

00:30:10.799 --> 00:30:11.660
 me so often.

00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:14.860
 God says

00:30:14.860 --> 00:30:16.240
 the list

00:30:16.240 --> 00:30:17.200
 to do

00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:17.940
 to enter

00:30:17.940 --> 00:30:18.740
 his rest

00:30:18.740 --> 00:30:20.079
 is so long

00:30:20.079 --> 00:30:21.519
 you'll never

00:30:21.519 --> 00:30:22.579
 get through it

00:30:22.579 --> 00:30:25.880
 but Jesus

00:30:25.880 --> 00:30:26.620
 has.

00:30:27.420 --> 00:30:28.480
 He has

00:30:28.480 --> 00:30:29.620
 trusted

00:30:29.620 --> 00:30:31.160
 and obeyed

00:30:31.160 --> 00:30:32.660
 and suffered

00:30:32.660 --> 00:30:34.180
 and sacrificed

00:30:34.180 --> 00:30:35.539
 and loved

00:30:35.539 --> 00:30:36.579
 and lived

00:30:36.579 --> 00:30:37.539
 perfectly

00:30:37.539 --> 00:30:39.119
 so God's

00:30:39.119 --> 00:30:39.819
 rest

00:30:39.819 --> 00:30:41.379
 is joyfully

00:30:41.379 --> 00:30:42.240
 satisfied

00:30:42.240 --> 00:30:43.720
 with his

00:30:43.720 --> 00:30:44.680
 finished

00:30:44.680 --> 00:30:45.440
 work.

00:30:45.579 --> 00:30:46.000
 You have to

00:30:46.000 --> 00:30:46.519
 let go of

00:30:46.519 --> 00:30:47.259
 yours.

00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:48.779
 He's the one

00:30:48.779 --> 00:30:49.460
 who's done it.

00:30:50.059 --> 00:30:50.659
 In case you

00:30:50.659 --> 00:30:51.559
 haven't connected

00:30:51.559 --> 00:30:52.279
 these dots yet

00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:53.159
 that means

00:30:53.159 --> 00:30:53.559
 repent

00:30:53.559 --> 00:30:54.859
 of your sins

00:30:54.859 --> 00:30:55.619
 where you run

00:30:55.619 --> 00:30:56.379
 far away

00:30:56.379 --> 00:30:57.059
 from Jesus

00:30:57.059 --> 00:30:58.059
 and live

00:30:58.059 --> 00:30:58.920
 your own way

00:30:58.920 --> 00:30:59.619
 not his.

00:30:59.720 --> 00:31:00.019
 You've got to

00:31:00.019 --> 00:31:01.039
 repent of that

00:31:01.039 --> 00:31:02.819
 and also

00:31:02.819 --> 00:31:04.000
 repent of your

00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:04.619
 own attempts

00:31:04.619 --> 00:31:05.460
 to replace

00:31:05.460 --> 00:31:06.059
 Jesus'

00:31:06.339 --> 00:31:07.000
 finished work

00:31:07.000 --> 00:31:07.680
 with your own.

00:31:07.899 --> 00:31:08.819
 Those times

00:31:08.819 --> 00:31:09.299
 where you think

00:31:09.299 --> 00:31:09.839
 I'm going to be

00:31:09.839 --> 00:31:10.460
 good enough

00:31:10.460 --> 00:31:11.240
 not to need

00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:12.019
 him today.

00:31:13.019 --> 00:31:14.240
 I'm thinking

00:31:14.240 --> 00:31:14.659
 if I'm

00:31:14.659 --> 00:31:15.920
 spiritual enough

00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:16.639
 God will

00:31:16.639 --> 00:31:17.319
 love me.

00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:19.379
 I'm thinking

00:31:19.379 --> 00:31:19.759
 I'm going to

00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:20.539
 perform well

00:31:20.539 --> 00:31:21.139
 enough that

00:31:21.139 --> 00:31:21.779
 I'll finally

00:31:21.779 --> 00:31:22.779
 be certain

00:31:22.779 --> 00:31:23.480
 that I'm

00:31:23.480 --> 00:31:24.460
 eternally okay

00:31:24.460 --> 00:31:25.019
 because I was

00:31:25.019 --> 00:31:25.460
 good enough

00:31:25.460 --> 00:31:26.019
 today.

00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:27.319
 Are you

00:31:27.319 --> 00:31:28.240
 kidding me?

00:31:28.240 --> 00:31:30.500
 Do you see

00:31:30.500 --> 00:31:30.960
 how you can

00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:31.599
 end up

00:31:31.599 --> 00:31:32.420
 with an

00:31:32.420 --> 00:31:33.339
 armful

00:31:33.339 --> 00:31:34.319
 of really

00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:35.380
 good things

00:31:35.380 --> 00:31:35.960
 but you're

00:31:35.960 --> 00:31:36.279
 going to have

00:31:36.279 --> 00:31:37.079
 to let go

00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:37.539
 of them

00:31:37.539 --> 00:31:38.559
 to hold on

00:31:38.559 --> 00:31:39.160
 to something

00:31:39.160 --> 00:31:40.559
 really stable

00:31:40.559 --> 00:31:41.859
 or else

00:31:41.859 --> 00:31:42.559
 you'll fall?

00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:46.279
 See God

00:31:46.279 --> 00:31:47.359
 actually has

00:31:47.359 --> 00:31:47.880
 something

00:31:47.880 --> 00:31:48.880
 absolutely

00:31:48.880 --> 00:31:49.519
 stable

00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:50.940
 for you

00:31:50.940 --> 00:31:51.339
 to hold

00:31:51.339 --> 00:31:51.960
 on to.

00:31:52.299 --> 00:31:53.099
 This is not

00:31:53.099 --> 00:31:54.059
 just a let go

00:31:54.059 --> 00:31:54.759
 message.

00:31:55.279 --> 00:31:55.779
 That feels

00:31:55.779 --> 00:31:56.339
 kind of nice

00:31:56.339 --> 00:31:56.819
 but it's not

00:31:56.819 --> 00:31:57.160
 enough.

00:31:57.160 --> 00:31:58.360
 There is

00:31:58.360 --> 00:31:58.820
 something

00:31:58.820 --> 00:31:59.580
 and someone

00:31:59.580 --> 00:32:00.160
 worth

00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:01.140
 clinging

00:32:01.140 --> 00:32:01.840
 to.

00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:02.740
 You know

00:32:02.740 --> 00:32:03.240
 already

00:32:03.240 --> 00:32:04.100
 you've been

00:32:04.100 --> 00:32:04.620
 here the last

00:32:04.620 --> 00:32:05.019
 few weeks

00:32:05.019 --> 00:32:05.580
 Hebrews is

00:32:05.580 --> 00:32:05.820
 going to

00:32:05.820 --> 00:32:06.240
 tell you

00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:07.080
 Jesus gives

00:32:07.080 --> 00:32:07.600
 you a better

00:32:07.600 --> 00:32:08.680
 rest than

00:32:08.680 --> 00:32:09.180
 Joshua.

00:32:09.580 --> 00:32:09.960
 Yes.

00:32:10.500 --> 00:32:11.100
 The message

00:32:11.100 --> 00:32:11.680
 of Hebrews

00:32:11.680 --> 00:32:12.440
 4 is

00:32:12.440 --> 00:32:13.900
 believe

00:32:13.900 --> 00:32:15.640
 this good

00:32:15.640 --> 00:32:16.160
 news.

00:32:17.900 --> 00:32:18.720
 Believe it

00:32:18.720 --> 00:32:19.340
 not merely

00:32:19.340 --> 00:32:20.019
 when you hear

00:32:20.019 --> 00:32:20.540
 it over the

00:32:20.540 --> 00:32:21.300
 loud speaker

00:32:21.300 --> 00:32:22.900
 not merely

00:32:22.900 --> 00:32:23.519
 when you read

00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:24.540
 it on a

00:32:24.540 --> 00:32:24.960
 door in

00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:25.380
 front of

00:32:25.380 --> 00:32:25.580
 you.

00:32:25.579 --> 00:32:27.220
 believe it

00:32:27.220 --> 00:32:28.419
 when life

00:32:28.419 --> 00:32:29.119
 throws you

00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:30.319
 off balance.

00:32:31.480 --> 00:32:32.439
 Really hold

00:32:32.439 --> 00:32:33.240
 on to it.

00:32:33.439 --> 00:32:34.000
 Actually

00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:35.519
 trust him.

00:32:35.899 --> 00:32:36.639
 A life

00:32:36.639 --> 00:32:37.519
 of repentance

00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:40.000
 and faith.

00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:42.579
 The people

00:32:42.579 --> 00:32:43.220
 back then

00:32:43.220 --> 00:32:44.000
 heard the

00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:44.740
 good news

00:32:44.740 --> 00:32:45.980
 verse 2

00:32:45.980 --> 00:32:47.079
 but they

00:32:47.079 --> 00:32:47.659
 didn't unite

00:32:47.659 --> 00:32:48.359
 hearing

00:32:48.359 --> 00:32:49.799
 with faith.

00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:51.000
 They didn't

00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:52.359
 enter rest

00:32:52.359 --> 00:32:53.479
 because of

00:32:53.479 --> 00:32:54.859
 unbelief.

00:32:56.459 --> 00:32:57.279
 So how

00:32:57.279 --> 00:32:57.639
 do you

00:32:57.639 --> 00:32:58.019
 enter?

00:32:58.979 --> 00:32:59.859
 Verse 3

00:32:59.859 --> 00:33:02.199
 we who

00:33:02.199 --> 00:33:02.719
 have

00:33:02.719 --> 00:33:03.819
 believed

00:33:03.819 --> 00:33:05.419
 enter

00:33:05.419 --> 00:33:06.039
 that

00:33:06.039 --> 00:33:07.319
 rest.

00:33:08.399 --> 00:33:08.899
 Listen it

00:33:08.899 --> 00:33:09.759
 is that

00:33:09.759 --> 00:33:10.359
 simple.

00:33:11.039 --> 00:33:11.799
 God's

00:33:11.799 --> 00:33:12.719
 rest

00:33:12.719 --> 00:33:13.279
 the

00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:14.119
 ultimate

00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:15.319
 joyful

00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:16.359
 satisfaction

00:33:16.359 --> 00:33:17.919
 is yours

00:33:17.919 --> 00:33:19.059
 when you

00:33:19.059 --> 00:33:20.459
 trust

00:33:20.459 --> 00:33:21.459
 Jesus.

00:33:23.099 --> 00:33:23.719
 Jesus

00:33:23.719 --> 00:33:24.179
 told us

00:33:24.179 --> 00:33:24.539
 the work

00:33:24.539 --> 00:33:25.099
 God called

00:33:25.099 --> 00:33:25.559
 us to do

00:33:25.559 --> 00:33:26.199
 was believe

00:33:26.199 --> 00:33:26.539
 in the

00:33:26.539 --> 00:33:26.859
 one

00:33:26.859 --> 00:33:27.659
 that he

00:33:27.659 --> 00:33:28.039
 sent.

00:33:28.939 --> 00:33:29.339
 Trust

00:33:29.339 --> 00:33:29.699
 him.

00:33:30.759 --> 00:33:31.119
 It is

00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:32.259
 that simple

00:33:32.259 --> 00:33:33.579
 and it's

00:33:33.579 --> 00:33:35.139
 that complex

00:33:35.139 --> 00:33:36.679
 for people

00:33:36.679 --> 00:33:37.479
 like us

00:33:37.479 --> 00:33:39.119
 arms

00:33:39.119 --> 00:33:40.059
 full

00:33:40.059 --> 00:33:41.399
 of good

00:33:41.399 --> 00:33:41.879
 works

00:33:41.879 --> 00:33:42.399
 and good

00:33:42.399 --> 00:33:43.059
 things to

00:33:43.059 --> 00:33:43.439
 do.

00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:44.479
 Hearts

00:33:44.480 --> 00:33:45.539
 full

00:33:45.539 --> 00:33:45.819
 of

00:33:45.819 --> 00:33:46.620
 mixed

00:33:46.620 --> 00:33:47.259
 motives

00:33:47.259 --> 00:33:48.299
 lives

00:33:48.299 --> 00:33:49.200
 full

00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:49.440
 of

00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:50.099
 wanting

00:33:50.099 --> 00:33:50.440
 to

00:33:50.440 --> 00:33:50.759
 live

00:33:50.759 --> 00:33:50.960
 our

00:33:50.960 --> 00:33:51.240
 own

00:33:51.240 --> 00:33:51.519
 ways

00:33:51.519 --> 00:33:51.759
 this

00:33:51.759 --> 00:33:52.180
 becomes

00:33:52.180 --> 00:33:52.599
 very

00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:53.500
 complex

00:33:53.500 --> 00:33:54.160
 for us.

00:33:54.440 --> 00:33:54.900
 We must

00:33:54.900 --> 00:33:55.559
 drop

00:33:55.559 --> 00:33:56.420
 our arms

00:33:56.420 --> 00:33:56.740
 full

00:33:56.740 --> 00:33:56.920
 of

00:37:05.660 --> 00:37:06.320
 get busier

00:37:06.320 --> 00:37:08.019
 your body

00:37:08.019 --> 00:37:08.460
 may be

00:37:08.460 --> 00:37:09.220
 doing more

00:37:09.220 --> 00:37:09.800
 but your

00:37:09.800 --> 00:37:10.360
 soul

00:37:10.360 --> 00:37:11.539
 has entered

00:37:11.539 --> 00:37:12.220
 God's

00:37:12.220 --> 00:37:12.640
 rest

00:37:12.640 --> 00:37:13.079
 not just

00:37:17.960 --> 00:37:18.880

00:37:18.880 --> 00:37:19.519
 Jesus has

00:37:27.300 --> 00:37:27.980
 shaken

00:37:29.640 --> 00:37:30.200
 to change

00:37:30.199 --> 00:37:30.719
 what Jesus

 has already

00:37:45.919 --> 00:37:46.239
 table

00:37:52.179 --> 00:37:52.599

00:37:52.599 --> 00:37:52.839
 the

00:37:52.839 --> 00:37:53.319
 irony

00:37:53.319 --> 00:37:54.919
 that

00:37:54.919 --> 00:37:55.460
 I

00:37:55.460 --> 00:37:56.339
 would

 and it's

00:38:00.180 --> 00:38:00.360
 not

00:38:00.360 --> 00:38:00.820
 nice

00:38:04.500 --> 00:38:04.660
 have

00:38:04.660 --> 00:38:05.079
 struggled

00:38:05.079 --> 00:38:05.980
 with

00:38:05.980 --> 00:38:06.320
 rest

00:38:06.320 --> 00:38:06.619

 have

00:38:09.300 --> 00:38:09.900
 serious

00:38:09.900 --> 00:38:10.480

00:38:10.480 --> 00:38:11.079
 issues

00:38:11.079 --> 00:38:12.500
 that

00:38:12.500 --> 00:38:12.840
 often

00:38:12.840 --> 00:38:13.119
 hurt

00:38:13.119 --> 00:38:13.460
 people

00:38:13.460 --> 00:38:13.780
 around

00:38:13.780 --> 00:38:14.039

00:38:14.039 --> 00:38:16.240
 I

00:38:16.240 --> 00:38:16.579
 battle

00:38:16.579 --> 00:38:17.300
 spiritual

00:38:17.300 --> 00:38:17.880
 pride

00:38:17.880 --> 00:38:19.280
 as a

00:38:19.280 --> 00:38:19.480

 firstborn

00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:21.480
 pastor's

00:38:21.480 --> 00:38:21.840
 kid

00:38:21.840 --> 00:38:22.260
 become

00:38:22.260 --> 00:38:22.460
 a

00:38:22.460 --> 00:38:22.840
 pastor

00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:26.300
 that's

00:38:26.300 --> 00:38:26.559
 part

00:38:26.559 --> 00:38:26.800
 of

00:38:26.800 --> 00:38:27.720
 just

00:38:27.720 --> 00:38:28.300
 part

00:38:28.300 --> 00:38:29.140
 of

00:38:29.140 --> 00:38:29.280
 why

00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:29.380
 I

00:38:29.380 --> 00:38:29.580
 needed

00:38:29.580 --> 00:38:29.780
 a

00:38:29.780 --> 00:38:30.340
 sabbatical

00:38:30.340 --> 00:38:31.519
 a

00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:31.680
 few

00:38:31.680 --> 00:38:31.940
 years

00:38:31.940 --> 00:38:32.160
 ago

00:38:32.160 --> 00:38:32.920
 sabbatical

00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:33.220
 is a

00:38:33.220 --> 00:38:33.500
 fancy

00:38:33.500 --> 00:38:33.840
 word

00:38:33.840 --> 00:38:34.160
 for

00:38:34.160 --> 00:38:35.080
 sabbath

00:38:35.080 --> 00:38:35.300
 for

00:38:35.300 --> 00:38:35.780
 someone

00:38:35.780 --> 00:38:36.160
 whose

00:38:36.160 --> 00:38:36.539
 heart

00:38:36.539 --> 00:38:36.980
 needs

00:38:36.980 --> 00:38:37.640
 months

00:38:37.640 --> 00:38:38.039
 rather

00:38:38.039 --> 00:38:38.320
 than

00:38:38.320 --> 00:38:38.940
 days

00:38:38.940 --> 00:38:39.720
 to

00:38:39.720 --> 00:38:40.400
 reset

00:38:40.400 --> 00:38:41.900
 with

00:38:41.900 --> 00:38:42.300
 God's

00:38:42.300 --> 00:38:42.820
 rest

00:38:42.820 --> 00:38:44.560
 I

00:38:44.560 --> 00:38:44.820
 was

00:38:44.820 --> 00:38:45.620
 forced

00:38:45.620 --> 00:38:46.980
 lovingly

00:38:46.980 --> 00:38:48.160
 to

00:38:48.160 --> 00:38:48.480
 let

00:38:48.480 --> 00:38:49.000
 go

00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:49.380
 of

00:38:49.380 --> 00:38:49.840
 all

00:38:49.840 --> 00:38:50.060
 of

00:38:50.060 --> 00:38:50.380
 the

00:38:50.380 --> 00:38:51.440
 good

00:38:51.440 --> 00:38:51.980
 things

00:38:51.980 --> 00:38:52.220
 that

00:38:52.220 --> 00:38:52.400
 I

00:38:52.400 --> 00:38:52.800
 carry

00:38:52.800 --> 00:38:53.200
 around

00:38:53.200 --> 00:38:53.539
 most

00:38:53.539 --> 00:38:53.880
 days

00:38:53.880 --> 00:38:54.740
 preaching

00:38:54.740 --> 00:38:55.440
 sermons

00:38:55.440 --> 00:38:56.579
 counseling

00:38:56.579 --> 00:38:57.840
 visiting

00:38:57.840 --> 00:38:58.760
 people

00:38:58.760 --> 00:38:59.539
 let

00:38:59.539 --> 00:38:59.760
 go

00:38:59.760 --> 00:38:59.940
 of

00:38:59.940 --> 00:39:00.159
 it

00:39:00.159 --> 00:39:00.760
 and

00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:01.000
 I

00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:01.720
 found

00:39:01.720 --> 00:39:02.119
 when I

00:39:02.119 --> 00:39:02.300
 did

00:39:02.300 --> 00:39:02.440
 that

00:39:02.440 --> 00:39:02.579
 I

00:39:02.579 --> 00:39:02.760
 was

00:39:02.760 --> 00:39:03.480
 worried

00:39:03.480 --> 00:39:05.079
 about

00:39:05.079 --> 00:39:05.300
 how

00:39:05.300 --> 00:39:05.599
 God

00:39:05.599 --> 00:39:05.820
 and I

00:39:05.820 --> 00:39:05.980
 would

00:39:05.980 --> 00:39:06.139
 get

00:39:06.139 --> 00:39:06.539
 along

00:39:06.539 --> 00:39:07.220
 when

00:39:07.220 --> 00:39:07.340
 I

00:39:07.340 --> 00:39:07.619
 wasn't

00:39:07.619 --> 00:39:07.960
 doing

00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:08.340
 those

00:39:08.340 --> 00:39:08.960
 things

00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:10.320
 do

00:39:10.320 --> 00:39:10.420
 you

00:39:10.420 --> 00:39:10.619
 see

00:39:10.619 --> 00:39:10.880
 the

00:39:10.880 --> 00:39:11.800
 lack

00:39:11.800 --> 00:39:12.059
 of

00:39:12.059 --> 00:39:12.539
 faith

00:39:12.539 --> 00:39:13.340
 there

00:39:13.340 --> 00:39:15.460
 what

00:39:15.460 --> 00:39:16.019
 commends

00:39:16.019 --> 00:39:16.240
 me

00:39:16.240 --> 00:39:16.400
 to

00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:16.780
 God

00:39:16.780 --> 00:39:17.000
 when

00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:17.200
 I'm

00:39:17.200 --> 00:39:17.440
 not

00:39:17.440 --> 00:39:17.960
 doing

00:39:17.960 --> 00:39:18.579
 stuff

00:39:18.579 --> 00:39:18.880
 for

00:39:18.880 --> 00:39:19.039
 him

00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:19.260
 God

00:39:19.260 --> 00:39:19.460
 I'm

00:39:19.460 --> 00:39:19.960
 worried

00:39:19.960 --> 00:39:23.059
 and

00:39:23.059 --> 00:39:23.119
 I

00:39:23.119 --> 00:39:23.240
 was

00:39:23.240 --> 00:39:23.500
 forced

00:39:23.500 --> 00:39:23.700
 to

00:39:23.700 --> 00:39:23.900
 sit

00:39:23.900 --> 00:39:23.920
!

00:39:23.920 --> 00:39:24.079
 with

00:39:24.079 --> 00:39:24.500
 God's

00:39:24.500 --> 00:39:24.780
 word

00:39:24.780 --> 00:39:25.000
 and

00:39:25.000 --> 00:39:26.320
 watch

00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:26.460
 it

00:39:26.460 --> 00:39:27.060
 expose

00:39:27.060 --> 00:39:27.340
 that

00:39:27.340 --> 00:39:28.080
 selfish

00:39:28.080 --> 00:39:29.400
 prideful

00:39:29.400 --> 00:39:30.240
 restless

00:39:30.240 --> 00:39:31.080
 heart

00:39:31.080 --> 00:39:31.600
 that had

00:39:31.600 --> 00:39:33.019
 so little

00:39:33.019 --> 00:39:33.900
 it felt

00:39:33.900 --> 00:39:34.460
 to offer

00:39:34.460 --> 00:39:35.019
 God

00:39:35.019 --> 00:39:35.740
 no

00:39:35.740 --> 00:39:36.440
 sermons

00:39:36.440 --> 00:39:36.660
 or

00:39:36.660 --> 00:39:37.000
 anything

00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:39.120
 and

00:39:39.120 --> 00:39:39.620
 in a

00:39:39.620 --> 00:39:40.120
 fresh

00:39:40.120 --> 00:39:40.600
 way

00:39:40.600 --> 00:39:41.560
 as

00:39:41.560 --> 00:39:41.940
 God's

00:39:41.940 --> 00:39:42.140
 word

00:39:42.140 --> 00:39:42.380
 did

00:39:42.380 --> 00:39:42.560
 that

00:39:42.560 --> 00:39:42.800
 I

00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:43.320
 became

00:39:43.320 --> 00:39:44.240
 desperate

00:39:44.240 --> 00:39:45.040
 for

00:39:45.040 --> 00:39:45.480
 Jesus

00:39:45.480 --> 00:39:45.760
 you know

00:39:45.760 --> 00:39:46.000
 what that

00:39:46.000 --> 00:39:46.400
 feels

00:39:46.400 --> 00:39:46.900
 like

00:39:46.900 --> 00:39:47.920
 I

00:39:47.920 --> 00:39:49.120
 need

00:39:49.120 --> 00:39:49.960
 I

00:39:49.960 --> 00:39:50.220
 need

00:39:50.220 --> 00:39:50.820
 something

00:39:50.820 --> 00:39:51.320
 else

00:39:51.320 --> 00:39:51.560
 to

00:39:51.560 --> 00:39:51.880
 offer

00:39:51.880 --> 00:39:52.340
 God

00:39:52.340 --> 00:39:52.740
 better

00:39:52.740 --> 00:39:53.040
 than

00:39:53.040 --> 00:39:53.580
 me

00:39:53.579 --> 00:39:54.360
 I

00:39:54.360 --> 00:39:54.679
 hope

00:39:54.679 --> 00:39:54.980
 you've

00:39:54.980 --> 00:39:55.340
 tasted

00:39:55.340 --> 00:39:55.699
 that

00:39:55.699 --> 00:39:55.819
 or

00:39:55.819 --> 00:39:56.340
 maybe

00:39:56.340 --> 00:39:56.500
 you

00:39:56.500 --> 00:39:56.639
 can

00:39:56.639 --> 00:39:56.920
 taste

00:39:56.920 --> 00:39:57.079
 it

00:39:57.079 --> 00:39:57.299
 right

00:39:57.299 --> 00:39:57.559
 now

00:39:57.559 --> 00:39:57.960
 that

00:39:57.960 --> 00:39:58.099
 I

00:39:58.099 --> 00:39:58.500
 need

00:39:58.500 --> 00:39:59.079
 his

00:39:59.079 --> 00:39:59.819
 finished

00:39:59.819 --> 00:40:00.159
 work

00:40:00.159 --> 00:40:00.380
 which

00:40:00.380 --> 00:40:00.819
 in

00:40:00.819 --> 00:40:01.019
 that

00:40:01.019 --> 00:40:01.279
 moment

00:40:01.279 --> 00:40:01.519
 was

00:40:01.519 --> 00:40:01.920
 so

00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:02.799
 obviously

00:40:02.799 --> 00:40:03.579
 so much

00:40:03.579 --> 00:40:04.059
 better

00:40:04.059 --> 00:40:04.860
 and so

00:40:04.860 --> 00:40:05.099
 much

00:40:05.099 --> 00:40:05.420
 more

00:40:05.420 --> 00:40:05.579
 than

00:40:05.579 --> 00:40:05.920
 anything

00:40:05.920 --> 00:40:06.219
 I

00:40:06.219 --> 00:40:06.779
 had

00:40:06.779 --> 00:40:08.000
 I

00:40:08.000 --> 00:40:08.119
 don't

00:40:08.119 --> 00:40:08.420
 have

00:40:08.420 --> 00:40:09.440
 time

00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:09.579

00:40:09.960 --> 00:40:10.219

00:40:10.340 --> 00:40:10.659

00:43:57.840 --> 00:43:58.340
 these

00:43:58.340 --> 00:43:59.019
 with us

00:43:59.019 --> 00:43:59.420
 if you're

00:43:59.420 --> 00:43:59.800
 wondering

00:43:59.800 --> 00:44:00.340
 about that

00:44:00.340 --> 00:44:00.579
 if you're

00:44:00.579 --> 00:44:00.820
 saying

00:44:00.820 --> 00:44:01.079
 I'm

00:44:01.079 --> 00:44:01.420
 ready

00:44:01.420 --> 00:44:02.000
 or I

00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:02.239
 think

00:44:02.239 --> 00:44:02.400
 I

00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:02.659
 might

00:44:02.659 --> 00:44:02.800
 be

00:44:02.800 --> 00:44:03.079
 or I'd

00:44:03.079 --> 00:44:03.300
 like

00:44:03.300 --> 00:44:03.579
 to be

00:44:03.579 --> 00:44:04.019
 there's

00:44:04.019 --> 00:44:04.320
 actually

00:44:04.320 --> 00:44:04.519
 a

00:44:04.519 --> 00:44:04.880
 class

00:44:04.880 --> 00:44:05.119
 that

00:44:05.119 --> 00:44:05.500
 starts

00:44:05.500 --> 00:44:05.880
 today

00:44:05.880 --> 00:44:06.159
 right

00:44:06.159 --> 00:44:06.420
 after

00:44:06.420 --> 00:44:06.659
 this

00:44:06.659 --> 00:44:06.960
 service

00:44:06.960 --> 00:44:07.239
 for

00:44:07.239 --> 00:44:07.460
 you

00:44:07.460 --> 00:44:07.800
 you

00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:07.960
 can

00:44:07.960 --> 00:44:08.139
 make

00:44:08.139 --> 00:44:08.279
 one

00:44:08.279 --> 00:44:08.380
 of

00:44:08.380 --> 00:44:08.480
 your

00:44:08.480 --> 00:44:08.860
 parents

00:44:08.860 --> 00:44:09.119
 come

00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:09.320
 with

00:44:09.320 --> 00:44:09.440
 you

00:44:09.440 --> 00:44:09.619
 because

00:44:09.619 --> 00:44:09.759
 they

00:44:09.759 --> 00:44:10.019
 have

00:44:10.019 --> 00:44:10.259
 to

00:44:10.259 --> 00:44:12.619
 but that

00:44:12.619 --> 00:44:12.980
 starts

00:44:14.539 --> 00:44:15.000
 if you're

00:44:15.000 --> 00:44:15.400
 wondering

00:44:15.400 --> 00:44:15.699
 that

00:44:15.699 --> 00:44:15.820
 or

00:44:15.820 --> 00:44:16.159
 wondering

00:44:16.159 --> 00:44:16.579
 if this

00:44:16.579 --> 00:44:16.900
 might be

00:44:16.900 --> 00:44:17.179
 a good

00:44:17.179 --> 00:44:17.440
 time

00:44:17.440 --> 00:44:18.400
 that's

00:44:18.400 --> 00:44:18.679
 one

00:44:18.679 --> 00:44:18.940
 great

00:44:18.940 --> 00:44:19.119
 way

00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:19.519
 to start

00:44:19.519 --> 00:44:19.739
 that

00:44:19.739 --> 00:44:20.440
 conversation

00:44:20.440 --> 00:44:21.500
 because

00:44:21.500 --> 00:44:22.019
 we love

00:44:22.019 --> 00:44:22.420
 getting to

00:44:22.420 --> 00:44:22.759
 celebrate

00:44:22.759 --> 00:44:23.059
 this

00:44:23.059 --> 00:44:23.440
 together

00:44:23.440 --> 00:44:24.019
 as a

00:44:24.019 --> 00:44:24.300
 family

00:44:24.300 --> 00:44:24.840
 across

00:44:24.840 --> 00:44:25.779
 generations

00:44:25.779 --> 00:44:27.159
 let me

00:44:27.159 --> 00:44:27.380
 pray

00:44:27.380 --> 00:44:27.639
 and then

00:44:27.639 --> 00:44:27.739
 we'll

00:44:27.739 --> 00:44:27.860
 do

00:44:27.860 --> 00:44:28.039
 that

00:44:28.039 --> 00:44:28.440
 together

00:44:28.440 --> 00:44:31.599
 Jesus

00:44:34.519 --> 00:44:36.320
