00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.719
 There are two groups of people described in the text that we're studying today.

00:00:06.740 --> 00:00:09.800
 Really, the two groups are different in many ways, actually.

00:00:09.980 --> 00:00:13.980
 Culturally, ethnically, religiously.

00:00:14.980 --> 00:00:20.640
 Those differences, though, ultimately, as you know, are relatively unimportant.

00:00:21.339 --> 00:00:24.260
 They don't really matter in the long run.

00:00:24.260 --> 00:00:29.019
 The crucial way that the two groups presented here in these verses are different

00:00:29.019 --> 00:00:32.979
 actually flows from an experience that they share.

00:00:34.179 --> 00:00:42.240
 Both groups have had the immense privilege of receiving the gospel of Jesus Christ,

00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:48.659
 which, in the context of this passage, is referred to as the Word of God.

00:00:49.299 --> 00:00:55.359
 And still, they differ in how they respond to receiving that Word.

00:00:55.359 --> 00:01:01.659
 One group accepts and welcomes what they receive by faith.

00:01:02.519 --> 00:01:04.319
 The other rejects it.

00:01:05.420 --> 00:01:09.239
 And the group that accepts the gospel does so, according to the text,

00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:18.299
 because the Holy Spirit opens their eyes to recognize the preaching of Christ as the Word of God.

00:01:18.299 --> 00:01:25.959
 And they're so convinced that they are prepared to suffer and to die for that truth,

00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:32.659
 knowing that death is but a doorway to life in Jesus Christ.

00:01:33.659 --> 00:01:36.500
 The other group hears the same gospel,

00:01:36.500 --> 00:01:40.140
 but in the hardness of their hearts,

00:01:41.140 --> 00:01:45.560
 rejects it as being merely the words of men.

00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:52.180
 This group ultimately hates what the other calls truth.

00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:56.480
 And while the one is prepared to die for it,

00:01:56.700 --> 00:02:01.359
 this group is ready to destroy on account of it.

00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:04.159
 They're blind to the truth,

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:07.599
 lost in sin and unbelief,

00:02:08.500 --> 00:02:12.879
 and destined for God's eternal wrath.

00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:19.500
 And we all this morning share in the same exact privilege as they did.

00:02:20.799 --> 00:02:23.240
 This gospel message, the Word of God,

00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:25.039
 it is readily available to us.

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:28.139
 We will experience the preaching of it again

00:02:28.139 --> 00:02:32.180
 in these very moments moving forward in our service.

00:02:32.180 --> 00:02:35.920
 And what we find over and over in the Scriptures

00:02:35.920 --> 00:02:40.400
 is that taking a neutral or somewhat neutral position

00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:44.840
 on this truth is not actually an option that's on the table for us.

00:02:45.379 --> 00:02:49.460
 You will either accept it as the Word of God,

00:02:49.460 --> 00:02:54.180
 or you will reject it as the words of men.

00:02:55.180 --> 00:02:58.200
 And the overarching question that I want to pose

00:02:58.199 --> 00:03:00.739
 to all of us this morning is this.

00:03:01.500 --> 00:03:05.119
 To which of these groups do you truly belong?

00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:06.479
 Which one?

00:03:06.679 --> 00:03:09.500
 The one who receives the Word and accepts it

00:03:09.500 --> 00:03:10.919
 as the Word of God,

00:03:11.039 --> 00:03:15.819
 or receives it and rejects it as merely the words of men?

00:03:16.539 --> 00:03:17.799
 Let's read the text together.

00:03:18.139 --> 00:03:20.199
 Chapter 2, verses 13 to 16.

00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:22.719
 Paul writes,

00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:25.079
 We also thank God constantly for this,

00:03:25.419 --> 00:03:27.919
 that when you received the Word of God,

00:03:28.459 --> 00:03:29.759
 which you heard from us,

00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:33.659
 you accepted it not as the Word of men,

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:36.139
 but as what it really is,

00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:37.839
 the Word of God,

00:03:38.299 --> 00:03:40.239
 which is at work in you believers.

00:03:41.419 --> 00:03:43.719
 For you, brothers, became imitators

00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:47.419
 of the churches of God and Christ Jesus that are in Judea.

00:03:47.419 --> 00:03:51.899
 For you suffered the same things from your own countrymen

00:03:51.899 --> 00:03:53.239
 as they did from the Jews,

00:03:53.399 --> 00:03:57.159
 who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets,

00:03:57.779 --> 00:03:58.659
 drove us out,

00:03:59.259 --> 00:04:00.339
 and displeased God,

00:04:00.419 --> 00:04:01.560
 and opposed all mankind

00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:04.919
 by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles

00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:06.019
 that they might be saved.

00:04:06.859 --> 00:04:09.879
 So as always to fill up the measure of their sins,

00:04:10.399 --> 00:04:14.099
 but wrath has come upon them at last.

00:04:14.099 --> 00:04:17.000
 We've now come full circle

00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:19.100
 in the movement of thought

00:04:19.100 --> 00:04:22.019
 through the first two chapters of 1 Thessalonians.

00:04:23.060 --> 00:04:25.219
 Paul, Silas, and Timothy

00:04:25.219 --> 00:04:27.279
 began their correspondence,

00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:28.459
 as you will recall,

00:04:28.579 --> 00:04:30.240
 by giving thanks to God

00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:32.519
 for the Thessalonian believers'

00:04:33.259 --> 00:04:35.579
 spirit-empowered conversion

00:04:35.579 --> 00:04:39.740
 and spirit-enabled perseverance of faith.

00:04:39.740 --> 00:04:44.220
 And then as Paul reflected on his time in Thessalonica,

00:04:44.400 --> 00:04:47.139
 he briefly shifts the focus away

00:04:47.139 --> 00:04:49.079
 from the Thessalonians themselves

00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:51.579
 and turns it to the authentic nature

00:04:51.579 --> 00:04:54.060
 of his ministry to them,

00:04:54.980 --> 00:04:56.579
 distinguishing himself

00:04:56.579 --> 00:04:59.560
 from the false teachers of the day.

00:05:00.280 --> 00:05:01.879
 And here, as we get closer

00:05:01.879 --> 00:05:03.660
 to the end of chapter 2,

00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:06.840
 Paul returns now to that initial theme,

00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:09.759
 that initial theme of the Thessalonians' conversion

00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.039
 and perseverance of faith

00:05:12.039 --> 00:05:14.019
 through severe persecution.

00:05:15.099 --> 00:05:16.879
 And as you notice in verse 13,

00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:17.659
 once again,

00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:20.699
 his remembrance of the gospel's work

00:05:20.699 --> 00:05:22.500
 in the lives of these people

00:05:22.500 --> 00:05:23.979
 that he has come to love

00:05:23.979 --> 00:05:28.159
 is expressed primarily as thanksgiving,

00:05:28.819 --> 00:05:31.500
 not thanksgiving to the Thessalonians,

00:05:32.239 --> 00:05:33.419
 thanksgiving to God

00:05:33.419 --> 00:05:35.479
 for the work that he has done in them

00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:38.580
 and that he continues to do through them.

00:05:39.620 --> 00:05:42.140
 The opening thanksgiving of chapter 1

00:05:42.140 --> 00:05:45.340
 underscores the powerful work

00:05:45.340 --> 00:05:47.300
 of the Holy Spirit in these new believers.

00:05:48.500 --> 00:05:51.020
 But as Paul reflects on the same event

00:05:51.020 --> 00:05:51.700
 in these verses,

00:05:51.819 --> 00:05:53.180
 he's not changing the topic,

00:05:53.400 --> 00:05:56.480
 he's still reflecting on his initial time

00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:58.560
 in ministry in Thessalonica

00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:00.240
 and the work that God was doing there

00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:03.300
 and the results of the fruitfulness of that work.

00:06:03.300 --> 00:06:06.579
 Here, as he rehearses that once again,

00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:08.540
 he highlights especially

00:06:08.540 --> 00:06:11.160
 the Spirit's work

00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:14.740
 through the ministry of the Word of God,

00:06:15.259 --> 00:06:18.240
 the preaching of the gospel of Jesus

00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:19.980
 from the Scriptures.

00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:22.680
 And an important statement

00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:24.139
 at the end of verse 13

00:06:24.139 --> 00:06:27.480
 is what gives us the passage's central idea

00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:30.319
 that the Word of God

00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:32.060
 is at work.

00:06:32.580 --> 00:06:33.860
 The Word of God is at work.

00:06:33.939 --> 00:06:35.759
 You see it there in verse 13.

00:06:36.640 --> 00:06:37.060
 He says,

00:06:37.200 --> 00:06:39.300
 you accepted it for what it really is,

00:06:39.379 --> 00:06:40.400
 the Word of God,

00:06:40.640 --> 00:06:42.860
 which is at work.

00:06:43.100 --> 00:06:44.720
 And he continues by saying,

00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:46.980
 it is at work explicitly

00:06:46.980 --> 00:06:48.680
 in believers.

00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:51.360
 And then as we look at this

00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:53.660
 set of verses as a unit,

00:06:53.740 --> 00:06:56.220
 we find also that implicit in the text

00:06:56.220 --> 00:06:58.319
 is that the Word is at work

00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:01.240
 against unbelievers.

00:07:02.379 --> 00:07:04.060
 And it's these two categories

00:07:04.060 --> 00:07:05.280
 that are going to shape

00:07:05.280 --> 00:07:06.120
 our study this morning

00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:07.300
 and next week.

00:07:07.300 --> 00:07:09.100
 We won't really move beyond

00:07:09.100 --> 00:07:11.460
 the first category this morning.

00:07:12.019 --> 00:07:14.240
 And so we'll return to it next week.

00:07:14.660 --> 00:07:16.319
 So what I want to focus on now

00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:18.420
 is the work of the Word

00:07:18.420 --> 00:07:19.719
 in believers.

00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:21.959
 The work of the Word

00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:23.040
 in believers.

00:07:24.420 --> 00:07:25.620
 In this text,

00:07:25.819 --> 00:07:27.740
 especially verses 13 and 14,

00:07:28.159 --> 00:07:29.560
 the Word of God accomplishes

00:07:29.560 --> 00:07:31.379
 two distinct works

00:07:31.379 --> 00:07:33.139
 in believers.

00:07:34.139 --> 00:07:36.039
 It brings about their salvation

00:07:36.039 --> 00:07:38.620
 and it secures them

00:07:38.620 --> 00:07:40.360
 in that salvation.

00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:42.259
 In other words,

00:07:42.379 --> 00:07:43.519
 the Spirit of God

00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:45.879
 uses the Word of God

00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:49.199
 to effect one's conversion

00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:50.319
 to Christ

00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:53.439
 and subsequent perseverance

00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:55.519
 through suffering.

00:07:56.579 --> 00:07:57.659
 The Word of God,

00:07:57.800 --> 00:07:58.779
 we would understand,

00:07:58.920 --> 00:07:59.659
 also works

00:07:59.659 --> 00:08:01.360
 in the believer's sanctification,

00:08:01.540 --> 00:08:02.800
 but Paul doesn't address that

00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:03.980
 at least at this point.

00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:05.279
 Only these first two are noted

00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:06.439
 and so those are the two

00:08:06.439 --> 00:08:07.899
 that I want to meditate on now.

00:08:08.279 --> 00:08:09.439
 What is the work

00:08:09.439 --> 00:08:10.519
 of the Word

00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:11.540
 in believers

00:08:11.540 --> 00:08:12.600
 according to this text?

00:08:12.839 --> 00:08:13.719
 Well, first we find

00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:15.400
 that the Word works

00:08:15.400 --> 00:08:17.800
 to save sinners.

00:08:18.580 --> 00:08:20.080
 The Word works

00:08:20.080 --> 00:08:22.360
 to save sinners.

00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:23.620
 Look at verse 13.

00:08:24.940 --> 00:08:26.140
 We also thank God

00:08:26.140 --> 00:08:27.440
 constantly for this,

00:08:28.100 --> 00:08:29.240
 that when you receive

00:08:29.240 --> 00:08:30.280
 the Word of God,

00:08:30.760 --> 00:08:32.080
 which you heard from us,

00:08:32.160 --> 00:08:34.000
 you accepted it

00:08:34.000 --> 00:08:35.420
 not as the Word of men

00:08:35.420 --> 00:08:37.420
 because you heard it from men,

00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:39.600
 but as what it really is,

00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:41.139
 the Word of God.

00:08:41.139 --> 00:08:42.600
 We're just in passing.

00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:44.679
 Notice the magnitude

00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:45.580
 of this statement.

00:08:46.100 --> 00:08:48.259
 This is Paul's claim

00:08:48.259 --> 00:08:49.779
 to inspiration.

00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:52.799
 There is this common misunderstanding.

00:08:53.039 --> 00:08:53.860
 I'm not sure exactly

00:08:53.860 --> 00:08:54.659
 where this comes from,

00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:56.120
 but even among some Christians,

00:08:56.299 --> 00:08:57.279
 they make this assumption

00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:00.179
 that as these men

00:09:00.179 --> 00:09:01.639
 who God used

00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:02.639
 to write the Scriptures,

00:09:02.980 --> 00:09:04.399
 that they didn't understand

00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:04.939
 what it was

00:09:04.939 --> 00:09:05.620
 that they were doing.

00:09:06.100 --> 00:09:07.080
 That as they wrote

00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:07.740
 and as they preached,

00:09:07.819 --> 00:09:08.720
 they didn't understand

00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:10.279
 that what they were writing

00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:11.840
 was the Word of God.

00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:13.240
 And that just isn't true.

00:09:14.340 --> 00:09:15.060
 Over and over,

00:09:15.180 --> 00:09:17.100
 through the New Testament especially,

00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:18.340
 we find that the apostles

00:09:18.340 --> 00:09:20.180
 are very much aware

00:09:20.180 --> 00:09:22.160
 of the divine authority

00:09:22.160 --> 00:09:23.000
 they have been given

00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:23.860
 in their preaching

00:09:23.860 --> 00:09:25.120
 and subsequently

00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:26.399
 in their writing.

00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:28.120
 And Paul here reminds us

00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:28.740
 of that again,

00:09:29.040 --> 00:09:29.740
 that as he comes

00:09:29.740 --> 00:09:30.759
 to Thessalonica

00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:31.980
 and he's preaching

00:09:31.980 --> 00:09:32.639
 the Gospel,

00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:33.759
 he recognizes

00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:35.379
 that what he is doing

00:09:35.379 --> 00:09:36.259
 is giving

00:09:36.259 --> 00:09:37.840
 the divine Word of God.

00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:39.120
 And we continue on

00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:39.840
 through the New Testament,

00:09:40.019 --> 00:09:40.879
 Peter recognizes,

00:09:41.040 --> 00:09:44.019
 he calls all of Paul's writings

00:09:44.019 --> 00:09:45.040
 Scripture.

00:09:45.860 --> 00:09:46.560
 The apostles were

00:09:46.560 --> 00:09:47.840
 very much aware of that.

00:09:48.100 --> 00:09:48.920
 And we find here

00:09:48.920 --> 00:09:50.420
 this bold claim once again

00:09:50.420 --> 00:09:51.500
 that what Paul

00:09:51.500 --> 00:09:52.340
 has been preaching

00:09:52.340 --> 00:09:53.580
 in Thessalonica

00:09:53.580 --> 00:09:54.440
 and in other places

00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:55.420
 and then subsequently

00:09:55.420 --> 00:09:56.340
 in his writing,

00:09:56.780 --> 00:09:58.300
 he understood to be

00:09:58.300 --> 00:09:59.879
 the very Word of God,

00:09:59.960 --> 00:10:02.100
 the authoritative Word of God.

00:10:02.780 --> 00:10:03.820
 And that's just in passing.

00:10:05.860 --> 00:10:06.580
 He says,

00:10:06.580 --> 00:10:08.300
 you accepted it

00:10:08.300 --> 00:10:09.120
 not as the Word of men

00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:10.420
 but as what it really is,

00:10:10.500 --> 00:10:11.220
 the Word of God

00:10:11.220 --> 00:10:12.200
 which is at work

00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:14.379
 in you believers.

00:10:15.560 --> 00:10:16.840
 Now, two words

00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:17.940
 are necessarily

00:10:17.940 --> 00:10:19.259
 contrasting one another

00:10:19.259 --> 00:10:20.060
 in this verse.

00:10:20.820 --> 00:10:21.400
 Received

00:10:21.400 --> 00:10:23.160
 and accepted.

00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:25.280
 Received here,

00:10:25.379 --> 00:10:26.300
 in this case,

00:10:26.379 --> 00:10:27.220
 it refers to

00:10:27.220 --> 00:10:28.480
 just the basic

00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:29.740
 transfer of information.

00:10:30.620 --> 00:10:31.600
 It's simply stating

00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:32.540
 that what was

00:10:32.540 --> 00:10:33.940
 previously unknown

00:10:33.940 --> 00:10:34.580
 to the Thessalonians

00:10:34.580 --> 00:10:37.240
 became known

00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:37.900
 to them.

00:10:38.100 --> 00:10:39.100
 They have received

00:10:39.100 --> 00:10:40.379
 that information

00:10:40.379 --> 00:10:42.780
 and Paul was the one

00:10:42.780 --> 00:10:43.720
 who passed it on.

00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:45.860
 So, Paul was a conduit

00:10:45.860 --> 00:10:46.320
 then, right?

00:10:46.560 --> 00:10:47.759
 He was a conduit

00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:49.620
 by which the gospel message

00:10:49.620 --> 00:10:50.620
 was passed on

00:10:50.620 --> 00:10:51.879
 to the people

00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:53.360
 in Thessalonica.

00:10:53.500 --> 00:10:54.520
 That's what he means

00:10:54.520 --> 00:10:55.080
 when he says

00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:56.280
 you receive the Word.

00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:58.060
 The Word itself,

00:10:58.139 --> 00:10:59.100
 it's not really referring

00:10:59.100 --> 00:10:59.660
 to anything

00:10:59.660 --> 00:11:00.400
 that the recipient

00:11:00.400 --> 00:11:01.280
 does with it.

00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:02.480
 It's just the fact

00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:04.079
 that they heard the Word.

00:11:04.259 --> 00:11:04.980
 This information

00:11:04.980 --> 00:11:06.100
 was passed on to them.

00:11:06.319 --> 00:11:07.539
 That is necessarily

00:11:07.539 --> 00:11:08.459
 contrasting

00:11:08.459 --> 00:11:09.679
 this second word,

00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:10.720
 accepted.

00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:12.679
 Accepted,

00:11:12.779 --> 00:11:13.659
 interestingly enough,

00:11:14.019 --> 00:11:15.259
 is the same word

00:11:15.259 --> 00:11:15.759
 that's used

00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:16.539
 in chapter 1

00:11:16.539 --> 00:11:17.240
 in verse 6.

00:11:17.319 --> 00:11:18.339
 Just set your eyes

00:11:18.339 --> 00:11:18.679
 on it.

00:11:19.620 --> 00:11:20.139
 In chapter 1

00:11:20.139 --> 00:11:20.779
 in verse 6,

00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:21.299
 Paul says,

00:11:21.419 --> 00:11:22.360
 you became imitators

00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:22.919
 of us

00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:24.000
 and of the Lord

00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:26.279
 for you received

00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:26.879
 the Word.

00:11:27.839 --> 00:11:29.139
 Now, received there,

00:11:29.939 --> 00:11:30.960
 the Greek word behind it,

00:11:30.980 --> 00:11:31.600
 it's the same word

00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:32.439
 as accepted

00:11:32.439 --> 00:11:33.559
 in chapter 2

00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:34.419
 in verse 13.

00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:36.059
 So, in translating it,

00:11:36.100 --> 00:11:36.720
 there's two different

00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:37.500
 Greek words here.

00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:38.879
 So, to give the idea,

00:11:39.019 --> 00:11:40.080
 to set the contrast

00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:41.419
 of what Paul is saying,

00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:42.600
 the translators

00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:43.360
 use receive

00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:44.399
 for this first word

00:11:44.399 --> 00:11:45.840
 that Paul came

00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:47.500
 and he gave information

00:11:47.500 --> 00:11:48.299
 and they received

00:11:48.299 --> 00:11:49.000
 the information.

00:11:49.379 --> 00:11:49.539
 Okay?

00:11:49.960 --> 00:11:50.939
 And then he uses

00:11:50.939 --> 00:11:51.960
 this second word

00:11:51.960 --> 00:11:52.399
 that he uses

00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:53.100
 in chapter 1

00:11:53.100 --> 00:11:55.200
 that this particular group

00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:56.639
 upon receiving

00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:57.480
 that information

00:11:57.480 --> 00:11:59.180
 accepted it.

00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:01.399
 They welcomed it.

00:12:01.659 --> 00:12:02.720
 They believed

00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:05.200
 what they received.

00:12:06.580 --> 00:12:07.639
 So, though the Word

00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:08.840
 of God came to them

00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:10.340
 through the words

00:12:10.340 --> 00:12:10.860
 of men,

00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:12.420
 the Christians

00:12:12.420 --> 00:12:13.379
 in Thessalonica

00:12:13.379 --> 00:12:14.659
 did not accept it

00:12:14.659 --> 00:12:15.420
 as ultimately

00:12:15.420 --> 00:12:16.480
 man's words

00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:18.539
 but as what it really is.

00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:20.340
 The inspired,

00:12:21.300 --> 00:12:22.159
 authoritative,

00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:23.899
 inerrant

00:12:23.899 --> 00:12:24.700
 Word

00:12:24.700 --> 00:12:26.320
 of God.

00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:29.520
 And what is it

00:12:29.520 --> 00:12:30.120
 exactly

00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:31.400
 that Paul,

00:12:31.620 --> 00:12:32.080
 Silas,

00:12:32.140 --> 00:12:32.620
 and Timothy

00:12:32.620 --> 00:12:34.620
 came to Thessalonica

00:12:34.620 --> 00:12:35.720
 proclaiming

00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:37.000
 as the

00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:38.000
 inspired,

00:12:38.460 --> 00:12:39.180
 authoritative,

00:12:39.760 --> 00:12:40.160
 and inerrant

00:12:40.160 --> 00:12:41.060
 Word of God?

00:12:41.820 --> 00:12:42.680
 It was the Gospel

00:12:42.680 --> 00:12:43.260
 of Jesus

00:12:43.260 --> 00:12:45.320
 from

00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:46.740
 the Old Testament

00:12:46.740 --> 00:12:47.220
 Scriptures.

00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:48.260
 You remember

00:12:48.260 --> 00:12:49.080
 Acts 17

00:12:49.080 --> 00:12:50.160
 it tells us plainly

00:12:50.160 --> 00:12:51.300
 Paul reasoned

00:12:51.300 --> 00:12:51.680
 with them

00:12:51.680 --> 00:12:52.820
 from the Scriptures

00:12:52.820 --> 00:12:54.140
 explaining

00:12:54.139 --> 00:12:55.019
 and proving

00:12:55.019 --> 00:12:56.299
 that it was

00:12:56.299 --> 00:12:56.939
 necessary

00:12:56.939 --> 00:12:57.960
 for the Christ

00:12:57.960 --> 00:12:58.799
 to suffer

00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:00.379
 and to rise

00:13:00.379 --> 00:13:01.199
 from the dead

00:13:01.199 --> 00:13:02.379
 and saying

00:13:02.379 --> 00:13:02.899
 to them

00:13:02.899 --> 00:13:04.379
 this Jesus

00:13:04.379 --> 00:13:05.240
 whom I proclaim

00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:05.960
 to you

00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:07.919
 is that Christ

00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:09.299
 who according

00:13:09.299 --> 00:13:09.980
 to the Scriptures

00:13:09.980 --> 00:13:11.299
 had to suffer

00:13:11.299 --> 00:13:12.659
 and rise

00:13:12.659 --> 00:13:13.259
 from the dead

00:13:13.259 --> 00:13:14.199
 for our sins.

00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:15.519
 That's what

00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:16.019
 he came to

00:13:16.019 --> 00:13:16.620
 Thessalonica

00:13:16.620 --> 00:13:17.299
 proclaiming.

00:13:17.539 --> 00:13:18.240
 He was preaching

00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:18.819
 Christ.

00:13:18.980 --> 00:13:19.659
 He was preaching

00:13:19.659 --> 00:13:20.740
 Christ from the Scriptures

00:13:20.740 --> 00:13:21.960
 and so when he says

00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:22.379
 here that

00:13:22.379 --> 00:13:23.659
 what you received

00:13:23.659 --> 00:13:24.399
 as the Word of God

00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:25.060
 that's what he means.

00:13:25.320 --> 00:13:25.779
 You received

00:13:25.779 --> 00:13:26.500
 the Gospel

00:13:26.500 --> 00:13:27.259
 preaching

00:13:27.259 --> 00:13:28.360
 of Christ

00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:29.320
 from the Scriptures.

00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:31.220
 It's the Word of God

00:13:31.220 --> 00:13:31.860
 he says

00:13:31.860 --> 00:13:33.120
 and you received

00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:33.860
 it as such.

00:13:35.899 --> 00:13:36.560
 They came

00:13:36.560 --> 00:13:37.220
 proclaiming

00:13:37.220 --> 00:13:38.019
 the good news

00:13:38.019 --> 00:13:40.259
 of what God

00:13:40.259 --> 00:13:40.840
 has done

00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:41.860
 to save sinners

00:13:41.860 --> 00:13:43.340
 through the

00:13:43.340 --> 00:13:44.500
 sacrificial death

00:13:44.500 --> 00:13:45.879
 and resurrection

00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:46.960
 of Jesus Christ

00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:47.539
 his Son.

00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:50.240
 Paul explained

00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:50.560
 to them

00:13:50.560 --> 00:13:51.600
 from the Scriptures

00:13:51.600 --> 00:13:52.700
 how it was necessary

00:13:52.700 --> 00:13:53.919
 for man's

00:13:53.919 --> 00:13:54.940
 eternal salvation

00:13:54.940 --> 00:13:56.419
 that God's Messiah

00:13:56.419 --> 00:13:58.600
 suffer in our place

00:13:58.600 --> 00:13:59.879
 as a substitute.

00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:02.519
 How it was necessary

00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:04.659
 that after his suffering

00:14:04.659 --> 00:14:06.379
 that he rise

00:14:06.379 --> 00:14:07.000
 from the dead

00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:07.560
 thereafter

00:14:07.560 --> 00:14:10.000
 and then he told them

00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:10.899
 about Jesus

00:14:10.899 --> 00:14:12.600
 Jesus of Nazareth

00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:14.879
 as we'll celebrate

00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:15.519
 all month

00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:16.960
 the sinless Son of God

00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:18.220
 incarnate

00:14:18.220 --> 00:14:19.759
 in flesh

00:14:19.759 --> 00:14:21.139
 who did

00:14:21.139 --> 00:14:21.939
 precisely

00:14:21.939 --> 00:14:23.620
 what the Scripture

00:14:23.620 --> 00:14:25.039
 said was necessary.

00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:27.799
 He proclaimed

00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:28.819
 Christ to them

00:14:28.819 --> 00:14:30.700
 as the good news

00:14:30.700 --> 00:14:31.799
 for sinners

00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:33.659
 and then he urged them

00:14:33.659 --> 00:14:34.639
 to respond

00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:35.559
 to the good news

00:14:35.559 --> 00:14:36.819
 turning from sin

00:14:36.819 --> 00:14:38.240
 turning from their unbelief

00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:39.259
 in order to

00:14:39.259 --> 00:14:40.840
 trust in Christ

00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:42.439
 by faith.

00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:43.820
 Jesus

00:14:43.820 --> 00:14:44.440
 this is God's

00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:45.180
 very word.

00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:47.420
 It was his word

00:14:47.420 --> 00:14:48.520
 for the Thessalonians

00:14:48.520 --> 00:14:50.100
 it's his word

00:14:50.100 --> 00:14:50.800
 for you.

00:14:53.300 --> 00:14:54.500
 In his love

00:14:54.500 --> 00:14:56.520
 God sent his only

00:14:56.520 --> 00:14:57.780
 son to atone

00:14:57.780 --> 00:14:58.520
 for the sins

00:14:58.520 --> 00:14:59.320
 of all who will

00:14:59.320 --> 00:15:00.100
 believe in him.

00:15:01.860 --> 00:15:03.140
 Jesus perfectly

00:15:03.140 --> 00:15:04.940
 fulfilled the law

00:15:04.940 --> 00:15:05.900
 that we have broken

00:15:05.900 --> 00:15:07.460
 and by shedding

00:15:07.460 --> 00:15:08.580
 his precious blood

00:15:08.580 --> 00:15:09.820
 on Calvary's cross

00:15:09.820 --> 00:15:11.160
 he made a full

00:15:11.160 --> 00:15:11.920
 and complete

00:15:11.920 --> 00:15:12.600
 atonement

00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:13.440
 for all

00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:14.100
 who will

00:15:14.100 --> 00:15:15.780
 accept it

00:15:15.780 --> 00:15:17.560
 by faith

00:15:17.560 --> 00:15:19.360
 and then God

00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:20.100
 raised him

00:15:20.100 --> 00:15:20.780
 from the dead

00:15:20.780 --> 00:15:21.540
 as a sign

00:15:21.540 --> 00:15:22.520
 that Jesus'

00:15:22.860 --> 00:15:23.440
 sacrifice

00:15:23.440 --> 00:15:24.200
 as a perfect

00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:24.580
 lamb

00:15:24.580 --> 00:15:25.220
 as we read

00:15:25.220 --> 00:15:26.240
 in 1 Peter

00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:26.860
 chapter 1

00:15:26.860 --> 00:15:27.740
 that this sacrifice

00:15:27.740 --> 00:15:29.120
 was sufficient

00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:30.460
 that it worked

00:15:30.460 --> 00:15:32.379
 that it's enough

00:15:32.379 --> 00:15:33.460
 to cover our sins

00:15:33.460 --> 00:15:34.500
 we need

00:15:34.500 --> 00:15:35.060
 to add nothing

00:15:35.060 --> 00:15:35.680
 to it

00:15:35.680 --> 00:15:37.060
 his sacrifice

00:15:37.060 --> 00:15:37.700
 is enough

00:15:37.700 --> 00:15:38.900
 his atonement

00:15:38.900 --> 00:15:39.600
 is complete

00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:41.080
 it is full

00:15:41.080 --> 00:15:42.340
 and God

00:15:42.340 --> 00:15:43.220
 in the resurrection

00:15:43.220 --> 00:15:43.920
 says

00:15:43.920 --> 00:15:45.420
 I accept it

00:15:45.420 --> 00:15:47.220
 I accept this

00:15:47.220 --> 00:15:48.620
 as an atonement

00:15:48.620 --> 00:15:50.300
 for you

00:15:50.300 --> 00:15:52.200
 appeasing God's wrath

00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:53.160
 against us

00:15:53.160 --> 00:15:55.720
 and then in his love

00:15:55.720 --> 00:15:58.240
 God turns

00:15:58.240 --> 00:15:59.220
 to sinners

00:15:59.220 --> 00:16:01.560
 and he calls us

00:16:01.560 --> 00:16:02.420
 to receive it

00:16:02.420 --> 00:16:04.000
 he says

00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:04.600
 this is what

00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:05.420
 I have done

00:16:05.419 --> 00:16:07.479
 now receive it

00:16:07.479 --> 00:16:08.059
 by faith

00:16:08.059 --> 00:16:09.240
 accept it

00:16:09.240 --> 00:16:10.719
 by faith

00:16:10.719 --> 00:16:13.479
 this is the word

00:16:13.479 --> 00:16:14.059
 of God

00:16:14.059 --> 00:16:16.599
 and while some

00:16:16.599 --> 00:16:17.879
 of the Thessalonians

00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:19.199
 received this message

00:16:19.199 --> 00:16:19.839
 from men

00:16:19.839 --> 00:16:21.419
 they accepted it

00:16:21.419 --> 00:16:22.279
 by faith

00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:23.139
 as a message

00:16:23.139 --> 00:16:23.879
 from God

00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:24.740
 and according

00:16:24.740 --> 00:16:25.759
 to the text

00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:27.360
 they did so

00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:28.959
 because the word

00:16:28.959 --> 00:16:30.399
 was at work

00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:31.799
 in them

00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:34.019
 that's why

00:16:34.019 --> 00:16:34.679
 Paul offers

00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:35.419
 his thanksgiving

00:16:35.419 --> 00:16:36.559
 to God

00:16:36.559 --> 00:16:37.679
 for the Thessalonians

00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:38.079
 faith

00:16:38.079 --> 00:16:41.459
 he knew

00:16:41.459 --> 00:16:42.259
 that ultimately

00:16:42.259 --> 00:16:44.019
 God was

00:16:44.019 --> 00:16:44.719
 responsible

00:16:44.719 --> 00:16:45.799
 by his grace

00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:47.159
 for their conversion

00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:48.699
 because it is

00:16:48.699 --> 00:16:49.579
 the Holy Spirit

00:16:49.579 --> 00:16:50.199
 of God

00:16:50.199 --> 00:16:51.299
 that works

00:16:51.299 --> 00:16:52.419
 through the preaching

00:16:52.419 --> 00:16:53.339
 of the word

00:16:53.339 --> 00:16:55.479
 to save sinners

00:16:55.479 --> 00:16:56.879
 what does the word

00:16:56.879 --> 00:16:57.779
 do in its work

00:16:57.779 --> 00:16:59.319
 it saves

00:16:59.319 --> 00:16:59.879
 sinners

00:16:59.879 --> 00:17:02.039
 can I just show

00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:02.820
 you two passages

00:17:02.820 --> 00:17:03.340
 to help

00:17:03.340 --> 00:17:04.319
 unpack this

00:17:04.319 --> 00:17:04.720
 a little bit

00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:05.119
 further

00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:06.880
 first is

00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:07.900
 1 Corinthians

00:17:07.900 --> 00:17:08.839
 chapter 1

00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:10.720
 verses 22

00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:12.359
 to 24

00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:15.160
 for Jews

00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:16.180
 demand signs

00:17:16.180 --> 00:17:16.720
 and Greeks

00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:17.619
 seek wisdom

00:17:17.619 --> 00:17:19.440
 but we preach

00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:20.519
 Christ crucified

00:17:20.519 --> 00:17:22.539
 a stumbling block

00:17:22.539 --> 00:17:23.119
 to the Jews

00:17:23.119 --> 00:17:23.740
 and folly

00:17:23.740 --> 00:17:24.500
 to Gentiles

00:17:24.500 --> 00:17:25.200
 but to those

00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:26.039
 who are called

00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:27.180
 whether they be

00:17:27.180 --> 00:17:28.279
 Jew or Greek

00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:30.059
 it is Christ

00:17:30.059 --> 00:17:31.139
 the power of God

00:17:31.139 --> 00:17:32.480
 and the wisdom

00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:32.940
 of God

00:17:32.940 --> 00:17:33.799
 just meditate

00:17:33.799 --> 00:17:34.399
 on that verse

00:17:34.399 --> 00:17:34.920
 for a moment

00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:36.500
 Paul says

00:17:36.500 --> 00:17:37.279
 there's three groups

00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:37.980
 of people here

00:17:37.980 --> 00:17:38.899
 he says first

00:17:38.899 --> 00:17:39.639
 there's the Jews

00:17:39.639 --> 00:17:40.279
 and what the Jews

00:17:40.279 --> 00:17:40.759
 demand

00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:41.859
 in their religious

00:17:41.859 --> 00:17:42.319
 pursuit

00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:43.220
 is they demand

00:17:43.220 --> 00:17:43.720
 signs

00:17:43.720 --> 00:17:44.920
 show us something

00:17:44.920 --> 00:17:46.359
 prove to us

00:17:46.359 --> 00:17:48.720
 that what this is

00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:49.619
 is true

00:17:49.619 --> 00:17:50.859
 the Greeks

00:17:50.859 --> 00:17:51.339
 take a different

00:17:51.339 --> 00:17:51.740
 approach

00:17:51.740 --> 00:17:52.460
 what they're seeking

00:17:52.460 --> 00:17:52.680
 for

00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:53.139
 what they're looking

00:17:53.139 --> 00:17:53.619
 for is

00:17:53.619 --> 00:17:54.339
 some kind

00:17:54.339 --> 00:17:54.740
 of wisdom

00:17:54.740 --> 00:17:55.279
 some type

00:17:55.279 --> 00:17:56.599
 of philosophical

00:17:56.599 --> 00:17:59.519
 intellectual

00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:01.359
 wisdom

00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:02.259
 that will

00:18:02.259 --> 00:18:02.960
 satisfy

00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:03.680
 their

00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:05.539
 searching

00:18:05.539 --> 00:18:06.220
 minds

00:18:06.220 --> 00:18:07.900
 but then as

00:18:07.900 --> 00:18:08.700
 Paul continues

00:18:08.700 --> 00:18:09.279
 on he says

00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:09.740
 that what

00:18:09.740 --> 00:18:10.319
 they actually

00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:10.740
 receive

00:18:10.740 --> 00:18:11.359
 is those

00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:11.620
 who are

00:18:11.620 --> 00:18:12.019
 demanding

00:18:12.019 --> 00:18:12.680
 the signs

00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:13.519
 we preach

00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:14.079
 Christ

00:18:14.079 --> 00:18:15.019
 and to the Jews

00:18:15.019 --> 00:18:15.759
 demanding signs

00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:16.180
 it actually

00:18:16.180 --> 00:18:16.680
 becomes a

00:18:16.680 --> 00:18:17.240
 stumbling block

00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:18.099
 they stumble

00:18:18.099 --> 00:18:18.599
 over it

00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:19.200
 they don't

00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:19.660
 receive it

00:18:19.660 --> 00:18:20.000
 they stumble

00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:20.160
 over it

00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:20.500
 they hate

00:18:20.500 --> 00:18:20.740
 it

00:18:20.740 --> 00:18:23.640
 and then he says

00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:24.200
 then there's

00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:24.759
 the other group

00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:25.940
 the Greeks

00:18:25.940 --> 00:18:26.579
 the Gentiles

00:18:26.579 --> 00:18:27.160
 they're seeking

00:18:27.160 --> 00:18:27.579
 wisdom

00:18:27.579 --> 00:18:28.480
 they're looking

00:18:28.480 --> 00:18:28.980
 for this

00:18:28.980 --> 00:18:29.299
 kind of

00:18:29.299 --> 00:18:29.819
 philosophical

00:18:29.819 --> 00:18:30.200
 thing

00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:30.620
 to scratch

00:18:30.620 --> 00:18:31.200
 their itch

00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:32.079
 and the

00:18:32.079 --> 00:18:32.359
 preaching

00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:33.019
 of Christ

00:18:33.019 --> 00:18:33.400
 to them

00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:33.759
 it just

00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:34.180
 seems like

00:18:34.180 --> 00:18:34.599
 folly

00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:35.079
 he says

00:18:35.079 --> 00:18:35.420
 so there's

00:18:35.420 --> 00:18:35.859
 these two

00:18:35.859 --> 00:18:36.160
 groups

00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:36.480
 we come

00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:36.720
 and we

00:18:36.720 --> 00:18:37.000
 preach

00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:37.380
 Christ

00:18:37.380 --> 00:18:37.779
 and there's

00:18:37.779 --> 00:18:38.099
 the one

00:18:38.099 --> 00:18:38.319
 group

00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:38.559
 that's

00:18:38.559 --> 00:18:38.880
 demanding

00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:39.319
 a sign

00:18:39.319 --> 00:18:39.859
 and this

00:18:39.859 --> 00:18:40.120
 is just

00:18:40.120 --> 00:18:40.539
 a stumbling

00:18:40.539 --> 00:18:40.759
 block

00:18:40.759 --> 00:18:41.140
 to them

00:18:41.140 --> 00:18:41.799
 and then

00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:42.019
 there's

00:18:42.019 --> 00:18:42.380
 this other

00:18:42.380 --> 00:18:42.620
 group

00:18:42.620 --> 00:18:42.779
 here

00:18:42.779 --> 00:18:43.000
 they're

00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:43.559
 looking

00:18:43.559 --> 00:18:44.039
 for some

00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:44.279
 type

00:18:44.279 --> 00:18:44.880
 of intellectual

00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:45.620
 itch

00:18:45.620 --> 00:18:45.920
 to be

00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:46.200
 scratched

00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:46.500
 he says

00:18:46.500 --> 00:18:46.839
 this just

00:18:46.839 --> 00:18:47.180
 seems like

00:18:47.180 --> 00:18:48.880
 foolishness

00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:49.080
 to them

00:18:49.080 --> 00:18:49.560
 oh but

00:18:49.560 --> 00:18:49.920
 then he says

00:18:49.920 --> 00:18:50.220
 there's a

00:18:50.220 --> 00:18:50.820
 third group

00:18:50.820 --> 00:18:51.759
 there's a

00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:52.220
 third group

00:18:52.220 --> 00:18:52.740
 that upon

00:18:52.740 --> 00:18:53.680
 hearing the

00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:54.039
 preaching

00:18:54.039 --> 00:18:54.519
 of Christ

00:18:54.519 --> 00:18:55.120
 crucified

00:18:55.120 --> 00:18:55.759
 it becomes

00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:56.080
 to them

00:18:56.080 --> 00:18:56.640
 Christ

00:18:56.640 --> 00:18:57.620
 as the

00:18:57.620 --> 00:18:58.360
 power of

00:18:58.360 --> 00:18:58.640
 God

00:18:58.640 --> 00:18:58.920
 and the

00:18:58.920 --> 00:18:59.180
 wisdom

00:18:59.180 --> 00:18:59.820
 of God

00:18:59.820 --> 00:19:00.620
 and who

00:19:00.620 --> 00:19:00.940
 is it

00:19:00.940 --> 00:19:01.980
 that it

00:19:01.980 --> 00:19:02.400
 becomes

00:19:02.400 --> 00:19:02.820
 that to

00:19:02.820 --> 00:19:03.340
 he says

00:19:03.340 --> 00:19:03.740
 to those

00:19:03.740 --> 00:19:04.019
 who are

00:19:04.019 --> 00:19:04.460
 called

00:19:04.460 --> 00:19:06.500
 to those

00:19:06.500 --> 00:19:06.940
 who upon

00:19:06.940 --> 00:19:07.500
 hearing

00:19:07.500 --> 00:19:08.420
 the preaching

00:19:08.420 --> 00:19:08.720
 of the

00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:09.080
 gospel

00:19:09.080 --> 00:19:09.560
 hearing

00:19:09.560 --> 00:19:10.440
 the gospel

00:19:10.440 --> 00:19:10.840
 preached

00:19:10.840 --> 00:19:11.180
 through the

00:19:11.180 --> 00:19:11.400
 word

00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:11.779
 that the

00:19:11.779 --> 00:19:12.140
 spirit

00:19:12.140 --> 00:19:12.560
 of God

00:19:12.560 --> 00:19:12.880
 does a

00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:13.279
 unique

00:19:13.279 --> 00:19:13.799
 work

00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:14.100
 through

00:19:14.100 --> 00:19:14.380
 that

00:19:14.380 --> 00:19:14.840
 word

00:19:14.840 --> 00:19:15.759
 that opens

00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:16.279
 their hearts

00:19:16.279 --> 00:19:16.600
 in order

00:19:16.600 --> 00:19:16.940
 that the

00:19:16.940 --> 00:19:17.460
 result is

00:19:17.460 --> 00:19:17.820
 that they

00:19:17.820 --> 00:19:18.120
 will

00:19:18.120 --> 00:19:18.840
 believe

00:19:18.840 --> 00:19:19.400
 they see

00:19:19.400 --> 00:19:19.600
 it

00:19:19.600 --> 00:19:20.039
 they see

00:19:20.039 --> 00:19:20.559
 the wisdom

00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:20.880
 of God

00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:21.380
 the power

00:19:21.380 --> 00:19:21.660
 of God

00:19:21.660 --> 00:19:22.360
 in Christ

00:19:22.360 --> 00:19:23.400
 no longer

00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:23.640
 is it

00:19:23.640 --> 00:19:24.160
 foolishness

00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:24.580
 to them

00:19:24.580 --> 00:19:25.200
 it's not

00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:25.620
 a stumbling

00:19:25.620 --> 00:19:25.840
 block

00:19:25.840 --> 00:19:26.259
 to them

00:19:26.259 --> 00:19:26.680
 no to

00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:26.840
 them

00:19:26.840 --> 00:19:27.080
 it is

00:19:27.080 --> 00:19:27.420
 eternal

00:19:27.420 --> 00:19:28.120
 salvation

00:19:28.120 --> 00:19:29.320
 he says

00:19:29.320 --> 00:19:32.860
 oh by

00:19:32.860 --> 00:19:33.220
 God's

00:19:33.220 --> 00:19:33.600
 grace

00:19:33.600 --> 00:19:34.019
 that upon

00:19:34.019 --> 00:19:34.380
 hearing

00:19:34.380 --> 00:19:35.200
 the message

00:19:35.200 --> 00:19:35.620
 of Christ

00:19:35.620 --> 00:19:36.160
 crucified

00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:36.720
 you would

00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:37.160
 be called

00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:37.600
 by the

00:19:37.600 --> 00:19:38.320
 Holy Spirit

00:19:38.320 --> 00:19:38.799
 of God

00:19:38.799 --> 00:19:39.279
 resulting

00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:39.600
 in your

00:19:39.600 --> 00:19:40.120
 conversion

00:19:40.120 --> 00:19:40.660
 even this

00:19:40.660 --> 00:19:40.980
 morning

00:19:40.980 --> 00:19:43.200
 what do we

00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:43.720
 learn from

00:19:43.720 --> 00:19:44.080
 this

00:19:44.080 --> 00:19:44.980
 that the

00:19:44.980 --> 00:19:45.740
 word works

00:19:45.740 --> 00:19:46.259
 to save

00:19:46.259 --> 00:19:46.620
 sinners

00:19:46.619 --> 00:19:47.959
 it works

00:19:47.959 --> 00:19:48.359
 to save

00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:48.699
 sinners

00:19:48.699 --> 00:19:49.779
 I want to

00:19:49.779 --> 00:19:50.019
 show you

00:19:50.019 --> 00:19:50.319
 one other

00:19:50.319 --> 00:19:50.899
 text

00:19:50.899 --> 00:19:52.599
 2nd

00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:53.000
 Corinthians

00:19:53.000 --> 00:19:53.739
 chapter 2

00:19:53.739 --> 00:19:54.399
 verses 4

00:19:54.399 --> 00:19:55.059
 through 6

00:19:55.059 --> 00:19:57.079
 Paul is

00:19:57.079 --> 00:19:57.719
 addressing

00:19:57.719 --> 00:19:58.099
 or he's

00:19:58.099 --> 00:19:58.739
 he's speaking

00:19:58.739 --> 00:19:59.159
 about

00:19:59.159 --> 00:19:59.919
 unbelievers

00:19:59.919 --> 00:20:00.339
 those who

00:20:00.339 --> 00:20:00.759
 do not

00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:01.239
 accept

00:20:01.239 --> 00:20:02.099
 the gospel

00:20:02.099 --> 00:20:02.459
 at least

00:20:02.459 --> 00:20:02.739
 here in

00:20:02.739 --> 00:20:03.099
 the beginning

00:20:03.099 --> 00:20:03.379
 and he

00:20:03.379 --> 00:20:03.759
 says in

00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:04.500
 their case

00:20:04.500 --> 00:20:05.639
 the God

00:20:05.639 --> 00:20:05.939
 of this

00:20:05.939 --> 00:20:06.279
 world

00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:06.779
 Satan

00:20:06.779 --> 00:20:08.599
 has blinded

00:20:08.599 --> 00:20:09.239
 the minds

00:20:09.240 --> 00:20:09.579
 of the

00:20:09.579 --> 00:20:10.299
 unbelievers

00:20:10.299 --> 00:20:12.259
 and what

00:20:12.259 --> 00:20:12.519
 is the

00:20:12.519 --> 00:20:12.839
 purpose

00:20:12.839 --> 00:20:13.200
 of this

00:20:13.200 --> 00:20:13.859
 blinding

00:20:13.859 --> 00:20:15.279
 to keep

00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:15.700
 them from

00:20:15.700 --> 00:20:16.380
 seeing the

00:20:16.380 --> 00:20:16.740
 light of

00:20:16.740 --> 00:20:17.200
 the gospel

00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:17.640
 the glory

00:20:17.640 --> 00:20:17.960
 of Christ

00:20:17.960 --> 00:20:18.220
 so that

00:20:18.220 --> 00:20:18.519
 they will

00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:18.900
 not see

00:20:18.900 --> 00:20:19.059
 it

00:20:19.059 --> 00:20:19.339
 so it

00:20:19.339 --> 00:20:19.440
 will

00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:19.819
 continue

00:20:19.819 --> 00:20:20.120
 to be

00:20:20.120 --> 00:20:20.500
 a stumbling

00:20:20.500 --> 00:20:20.759
 block

00:20:20.759 --> 00:20:21.220
 and folly

00:20:21.220 --> 00:20:22.920
 so they

00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:23.180
 will not

00:20:23.180 --> 00:20:23.480
 see the

00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:23.880
 gospel

00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:24.420
 of the

00:20:24.420 --> 00:20:24.599
 glory

00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:24.940
 of Christ

00:20:24.940 --> 00:20:25.160
 who is

00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:25.539
 the image

00:20:25.539 --> 00:20:25.920
 of God

00:20:25.920 --> 00:20:26.599
 and then

00:20:26.599 --> 00:20:26.839
 he says

00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:27.120
 for what

00:20:27.120 --> 00:20:27.680
 we proclaim

00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:28.079
 is not

00:20:28.079 --> 00:20:28.599
 ourselves

00:20:28.599 --> 00:20:29.380
 we preach

00:20:29.380 --> 00:20:29.799
 Christ

00:20:29.799 --> 00:20:30.380
 as Lord

00:20:30.380 --> 00:20:31.640
 with

00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:32.039
 ourselves

00:20:32.039 --> 00:20:32.440
 as your

00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:32.839
 servants

00:20:32.839 --> 00:20:33.259
 for his

00:20:33.259 --> 00:20:33.579
 sake

00:20:33.579 --> 00:20:34.220
 and then

00:20:34.220 --> 00:20:34.420
 notice

00:20:34.420 --> 00:20:34.960
 this last

00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:35.400
 phrase

00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:36.440
 for God

00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:37.800
 who said

00:20:37.800 --> 00:20:38.620
 let light

00:20:38.620 --> 00:20:39.100
 shine out

00:20:39.100 --> 00:20:39.680
 of darkness

00:20:39.680 --> 00:20:40.860
 the one

00:20:40.860 --> 00:20:41.080
 who is

00:20:41.080 --> 00:20:41.460
 powerful

00:20:41.460 --> 00:20:41.820
 enough

00:20:41.820 --> 00:20:42.280
 to create

00:20:42.280 --> 00:20:42.540
 all

00:20:42.540 --> 00:20:42.960
 that you

00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:43.259
 see

00:20:43.259 --> 00:20:45.300
 he has

00:20:45.300 --> 00:20:45.660
 shown

00:20:45.660 --> 00:20:46.019
 in our

00:20:46.019 --> 00:20:46.500
 hearts

00:20:46.500 --> 00:20:47.900
 to do

00:20:47.900 --> 00:20:48.259
 what

00:20:48.259 --> 00:20:50.040
 to give

00:20:50.040 --> 00:20:50.800
 the light

00:20:50.800 --> 00:20:52.140
 of the

00:20:52.140 --> 00:20:52.740
 knowledge

00:20:52.740 --> 00:20:54.440
 of God

00:20:54.440 --> 00:20:54.920
 of the

00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:55.180
 glory

00:20:55.180 --> 00:20:55.560
 of God

00:20:55.560 --> 00:20:55.820
 in the

00:20:55.820 --> 00:20:56.060
 face

00:20:56.060 --> 00:20:56.420
 of Jesus

00:20:56.420 --> 00:20:56.980
 Christ

00:20:56.980 --> 00:20:57.900
 you know

00:20:57.900 --> 00:20:58.160
 what is

00:20:58.160 --> 00:20:58.880
 Paul saying

00:20:58.880 --> 00:20:59.480
 he's saying

00:20:59.480 --> 00:20:59.960
 unbelievers

00:20:59.960 --> 00:21:00.759
 are blinded

00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:01.440
 by Satan's

00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:01.960
 deception

00:21:01.960 --> 00:21:03.080
 keeping them

00:21:03.080 --> 00:21:03.540
 from seeing

00:21:03.540 --> 00:21:03.900
 the light

00:21:03.900 --> 00:21:04.420
 of the gospel

00:21:04.420 --> 00:21:05.060
 so how

00:21:05.059 --> 00:21:05.440
 then will

00:21:05.440 --> 00:21:05.700
 anyone

00:21:05.700 --> 00:21:06.480
 be saved

00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:08.299
 how will

00:21:08.299 --> 00:21:08.559
 anyone

00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:09.119
 move

00:21:09.119 --> 00:21:09.579
 from this

00:21:09.579 --> 00:21:10.299
 first category

00:21:10.299 --> 00:21:10.980
 of deception

00:21:10.980 --> 00:21:12.039
 and blindness

00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:12.519
 to this

00:21:12.519 --> 00:21:13.619
 latter category

00:21:13.619 --> 00:21:14.119
 of seeing

00:21:14.119 --> 00:21:14.539
 the truth

00:21:14.539 --> 00:21:15.200
 and understanding

00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:15.679
 the truth

00:21:15.679 --> 00:21:16.399
 and believing

00:21:16.399 --> 00:21:16.919
 the truth

00:21:16.919 --> 00:21:17.539
 and rejoicing

00:21:17.539 --> 00:21:17.879
 the truth

00:21:17.879 --> 00:21:18.480
 how is it

00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:18.759
 possible

00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:19.220
 that any

00:21:19.220 --> 00:21:19.579
 of us

00:21:19.579 --> 00:21:19.980
 would ever

00:21:19.980 --> 00:21:20.240
 move

00:21:20.240 --> 00:21:20.839
 from category

00:21:20.839 --> 00:21:21.220
 A

00:21:21.220 --> 00:21:21.899
 to category

00:21:21.899 --> 00:21:22.220
 B

00:21:22.220 --> 00:21:22.639
 and Paul

00:21:22.639 --> 00:21:22.960
 says

00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:23.179
 well

00:21:23.179 --> 00:21:23.859
 it starts

00:21:23.859 --> 00:21:24.139
 with the

00:21:24.139 --> 00:21:24.379
 preaching

00:21:24.379 --> 00:21:24.819
 of Christ

00:21:24.819 --> 00:21:25.139
 and then

00:21:25.139 --> 00:21:25.399
 God

00:21:25.399 --> 00:21:25.759
 does this

00:21:25.759 --> 00:21:26.339
 amazing

00:21:26.339 --> 00:21:26.740
 thing

00:21:26.740 --> 00:21:26.980
 in the

00:21:26.980 --> 00:21:27.240
 preaching

00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:27.859
 of Christ

00:21:27.859 --> 00:21:29.259
 through the

00:21:29.259 --> 00:21:29.659
 preaching

00:21:29.659 --> 00:21:29.940
 of the

00:21:29.940 --> 00:21:30.319
 gospel

00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:30.839
 God

00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:31.579
 who made

00:21:31.579 --> 00:21:32.179
 the world

00:21:32.179 --> 00:21:33.059
 and all

00:21:33.059 --> 00:21:33.299
 that's

00:21:33.299 --> 00:21:33.659
 in it

00:21:33.660 --> 00:21:35.720
 he shines

00:21:35.720 --> 00:21:36.100
 in the

00:21:36.100 --> 00:21:36.500
 darkness

00:21:36.500 --> 00:21:37.000
 of our

00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:37.600
 unbelieving

00:21:37.600 --> 00:21:38.180
 hearts

00:21:38.180 --> 00:21:39.500
 so that

00:21:39.500 --> 00:21:39.980
 we might

00:21:39.980 --> 00:21:40.500
 come to

00:21:40.500 --> 00:21:41.080
 the knowledge

00:21:41.080 --> 00:21:41.620
 of God

00:21:41.620 --> 00:21:42.060
 in Christ

00:21:42.060 --> 00:21:42.540
 Jesus

00:21:42.540 --> 00:21:43.540
 what is he

00:21:43.540 --> 00:21:43.960
 saying

00:21:43.960 --> 00:21:45.100
 the word

00:21:45.100 --> 00:21:45.560
 of God

00:21:45.560 --> 00:21:46.160
 works

00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:47.200
 to save

00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:47.580
 sinners

00:21:47.580 --> 00:21:48.340
 God uses

00:21:48.340 --> 00:21:48.540
 it

00:21:48.540 --> 00:21:48.960
 it's his

00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:49.300
 tool

00:21:49.300 --> 00:21:49.640
 it's his

00:21:49.640 --> 00:21:50.080
 instrument

00:21:50.080 --> 00:21:51.300
 to save

00:21:51.300 --> 00:21:51.660
 sinners

00:21:51.660 --> 00:21:52.320
 to shine

00:21:52.320 --> 00:21:52.700
 the light

00:21:52.700 --> 00:21:52.920
 of the

00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:53.279
 gospel

00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:53.880
 into the

00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:54.380
 darkness

00:21:54.380 --> 00:21:55.840
 of our

00:21:55.840 --> 00:21:56.360
 unbelieving

00:21:56.360 --> 00:21:57.000
 hearts

00:21:57.000 --> 00:21:58.740
 John

00:21:58.740 --> 00:21:59.180
 Piper

00:21:59.180 --> 00:21:59.580
 says

00:21:59.580 --> 00:21:59.800
 we

00:21:59.800 --> 00:22:00.560
 we live

00:22:00.560 --> 00:22:00.800
 in a

00:22:00.800 --> 00:22:01.120
 day

00:22:01.120 --> 00:22:01.740
 when people

00:22:01.740 --> 00:22:02.300
 believe

00:22:02.300 --> 00:22:03.000
 that there

00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:03.560
 are many

00:22:03.560 --> 00:22:04.740
 many words

00:22:04.740 --> 00:22:05.320
 of men

00:22:05.320 --> 00:22:06.920
 conservative

00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:07.600
 words

00:22:07.600 --> 00:22:08.760
 progressive

00:22:08.760 --> 00:22:09.480
 words

00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:10.740
 philosophical

00:22:10.740 --> 00:22:11.480
 words

00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:12.440
 Hindu

00:22:12.440 --> 00:22:12.960
 words

00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:13.660
 Protestant

00:22:13.660 --> 00:22:14.040
 words

00:22:14.040 --> 00:22:14.280
 we could

00:22:14.280 --> 00:22:14.620
 go on

00:22:14.620 --> 00:22:14.920
 and on

00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:15.620
 Catholic

00:22:15.620 --> 00:22:16.080
 words

00:22:16.080 --> 00:22:16.540
 Baptist

00:22:16.540 --> 00:22:17.080
 words

00:22:17.080 --> 00:22:17.480
 there are

00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:18.240
 all kinds

00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:18.820
 of words

00:22:18.820 --> 00:22:19.760
 and he

00:22:19.760 --> 00:22:20.080
 says

00:22:20.080 --> 00:22:20.360
 the

00:22:20.360 --> 00:22:21.500
 understanding

00:22:21.500 --> 00:22:21.860
 is that

00:22:21.860 --> 00:22:22.200
 all there

00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:22.340
 is

00:22:22.340 --> 00:22:22.480
 is

00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:22.780
 words

00:22:22.779 --> 00:22:23.240
 of men

00:22:23.240 --> 00:22:24.700
 and the

00:22:24.700 --> 00:22:25.160
 philosophy

00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:25.519
 of the

00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:25.799
 day

00:22:25.799 --> 00:22:26.460
 is basically

00:22:26.460 --> 00:22:26.920
 choose

00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:27.440
 your word

00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:28.680
 just choose

00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:29.200
 your word

00:22:29.200 --> 00:22:30.480
 and do

00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:31.099
 your best

00:22:31.099 --> 00:22:33.079
 and then he

00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:33.460
 says and

00:22:33.460 --> 00:22:33.859
 that's the

00:22:33.859 --> 00:22:34.259
 way it's

00:22:34.259 --> 00:22:34.619
 going to

00:22:34.619 --> 00:22:34.980
 be

00:22:34.980 --> 00:22:36.700
 until this

00:22:36.700 --> 00:22:37.039
 miracle

00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:37.720
 happens

00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:39.559
 until this

00:22:39.559 --> 00:22:39.859
 miracle

00:22:39.859 --> 00:22:40.460
 happens

00:22:40.460 --> 00:22:42.139
 the light

00:22:42.139 --> 00:22:42.379
 of the

00:22:42.379 --> 00:22:42.859
 glory of

00:22:42.859 --> 00:22:43.180
 God

00:22:43.180 --> 00:22:43.960
 shining in

00:22:43.960 --> 00:22:44.440
 the darkness

00:22:44.440 --> 00:22:44.859
 of our

00:22:44.859 --> 00:22:45.440
 depraved

00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:45.940
 hearts

00:22:45.940 --> 00:22:47.960
 through the

00:22:47.960 --> 00:22:48.480
 preaching of

00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:48.960
 the gospel

00:22:48.960 --> 00:22:49.539
 of God

00:22:49.539 --> 00:22:50.220
 in the face

00:22:50.220 --> 00:22:50.599
 of Jesus

00:22:50.599 --> 00:22:51.079
 Christ

00:22:51.079 --> 00:22:53.179
 when the

00:22:53.179 --> 00:22:53.879
 gospel came

00:22:53.879 --> 00:22:54.799
 to Thessalonica

00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:56.099
 the spirit

00:22:56.099 --> 00:22:56.519
 of God

00:22:56.519 --> 00:22:56.859
 was at

00:22:56.859 --> 00:22:57.379
 work

00:22:57.379 --> 00:22:58.199
 so that

00:22:58.199 --> 00:22:58.720
 some of

00:22:58.720 --> 00:22:58.859
 them

00:22:58.859 --> 00:22:59.460
 accepted

00:22:59.460 --> 00:22:59.819
 it as

 the word

00:23:00.199 --> 00:23:00.740
 of God

00:23:00.740 --> 00:23:01.859
 and the

00:23:01.859 --> 00:23:02.279
 question

 for you

 sin

00:23:24.779 --> 00:23:25.519
 and your

 unbelief

00:23:26.359 --> 00:23:29.940
 don't

 let another

00:23:30.379 --> 00:23:30.819
 moment

00:23:30.819 --> 00:23:31.339
 go

00:23:31.339 --> 00:23:33.119
 without

00:23:33.119 --> 00:23:33.599
 turning

00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:34.099
 from your

00:23:34.099 --> 00:23:34.539
 sin

00:23:34.539 --> 00:23:36.259
 looking

00:23:36.259 --> 00:23:36.740
 to the

00:23:36.740 --> 00:23:37.160
 Savior

00:23:37.160 --> 00:23:38.519
 Jesus

00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:40.680

00:23:42.019 --> 00:23:42.519
 sins

00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:45.319
 but then

00:23:45.319 --> 00:23:45.599
 there are

00:24:02.740 --> 00:24:03.680
 for

 this

 against

 God

00:24:14.360 --> 00:24:14.519
 you

00:24:14.519 --> 00:24:14.800
 knew

00:24:14.800 --> 00:24:15.000
 the

00:24:15.000 --> 00:24:15.220
 truth

00:24:15.220 --> 00:24:15.320
 you

00:24:15.320 --> 00:24:15.620
 heard

00:24:15.620 --> 00:24:15.779
 the

00:24:15.779 --> 00:24:16.100
 gospel

00:24:16.099 --> 00:24:16.500
 and

 for

00:24:16.699 --> 00:24:16.980
 years

00:24:16.980 --> 00:24:17.139
 and

00:24:17.139 --> 00:24:17.319

00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:17.779
 years

00:24:17.779 --> 00:24:18.539
 you

00:24:18.539 --> 00:24:19.079
 rejected

00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:19.500
 it

00:24:19.500 --> 00:24:20.299
 and

00:24:20.299 --> 00:24:20.500
 then

00:24:20.500 --> 00:24:21.259
 you

00:24:21.259 --> 00:24:21.639
 heard

00:24:21.639 --> 00:24:21.939
 it

00:24:21.939 --> 00:24:22.599
 again

00:24:22.599 --> 00:24:22.799
 and

00:24:22.799 --> 00:24:23.000
 God

00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:23.559
 unlocks

00:24:23.559 --> 00:24:23.939
 something

00:24:23.939 --> 00:24:24.159
 in you

00:24:24.159 --> 00:24:24.379
 and he

00:24:24.379 --> 00:24:24.939
 saves

00:24:24.939 --> 00:24:25.579
 your soul

00:24:25.579 --> 00:24:25.859
 and then

00:24:25.859 --> 00:24:26.539
 he commands

00:24:26.539 --> 00:24:26.980
 that you

00:24:26.980 --> 00:24:27.319
 go

00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:28.659
 and teach

00:24:28.659 --> 00:24:29.259
 that same

00:24:29.659 --> 00:24:29.939
 others

00:24:29.939 --> 00:24:30.199
 why

00:24:30.199 --> 00:24:30.539
 wouldn't

00:24:30.539 --> 00:24:30.879
 we do

00:24:30.879 --> 00:24:31.279
 that

00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:32.639
 if

00:24:32.639 --> 00:24:32.819
 it

00:24:32.819 --> 00:24:33.000

00:27:06.259 --> 00:27:06.500
 there

00:27:06.500 --> 00:27:06.680
 in

00:27:06.680 --> 00:27:07.339
 Thessalonica

00:27:07.339 --> 00:27:10.220
 it's

00:27:10.220 --> 00:27:10.839
 truncated

00:27:10.839 --> 00:27:11.319
 for sure

00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:11.920
 but he

00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:12.360
 gives us

00:27:12.360 --> 00:27:12.620
 enough

00:27:12.620 --> 00:27:13.180
 so that

00:27:13.180 --> 00:27:13.460
 we get

00:27:13.460 --> 00:27:13.799
 the gist

00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:14.039
 of what

00:27:14.039 --> 00:27:14.200
 was

00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:14.620
 happening

00:27:14.620 --> 00:27:16.039
 Acts

00:27:16.039 --> 00:27:16.620
 17

00:27:16.620 --> 00:27:17.319
 verses

00:27:17.319 --> 00:27:17.680

00:27:17.680 --> 00:27:17.860
 through

00:27:17.860 --> 00:27:18.160
 8

00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:18.400
 this

00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:18.600
 is

00:27:18.600 --> 00:27:19.279
 after

00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:19.620
 Paul

00:27:19.620 --> 00:27:19.819
 has

00:27:19.819 --> 00:27:20.180
 preached

00:27:20.180 --> 00:27:20.460
 in

00:27:20.460 --> 00:27:20.600
 the

00:27:20.600 --> 00:27:21.140
 synagogues

00:27:21.140 --> 00:27:21.259
 and

00:27:21.259 --> 00:27:21.440
 he's

00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:21.860
 proclaimed

00:27:21.859 --> 00:27:22.240
 Christ

00:27:22.240 --> 00:27:22.439
 from

00:27:22.439 --> 00:27:22.579
 the

00:27:22.579 --> 00:27:22.859
 scriptures

00:27:22.859 --> 00:27:23.740
 and

00:27:23.740 --> 00:27:23.899
 the

00:27:23.899 --> 00:27:24.059
 verse

00:27:24.059 --> 00:27:24.319
 before

00:27:24.319 --> 00:27:24.619
 tells

00:27:24.619 --> 00:27:24.779
 us

00:27:24.779 --> 00:27:24.919
 that

00:27:24.919 --> 00:27:25.119
 many

00:27:25.119 --> 00:27:25.240
 of

00:27:25.240 --> 00:27:25.359
 them

00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:25.579
 came

00:27:25.579 --> 00:27:25.759
 to

00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:26.159
 faith

00:27:26.159 --> 00:27:26.679
 and

00:27:26.679 --> 00:27:26.859
 then

00:27:26.859 --> 00:27:27.119
 that's

00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:27.219
 where

00:27:27.219 --> 00:27:27.359
 we

00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:27.559
 pick

00:27:27.559 --> 00:27:27.699
 up

00:27:27.699 --> 00:27:27.819
 in

00:27:27.819 --> 00:27:28.000
 verse

00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:28.179
 number

00:27:28.179 --> 00:27:28.679
 five

00:27:28.679 --> 00:27:29.839
 but

00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:30.059
 the

00:27:30.059 --> 00:27:30.399
 Jews

00:27:30.399 --> 00:27:30.679
 there

00:27:30.679 --> 00:27:30.899
 were

00:27:30.899 --> 00:27:31.399
 jealous

00:27:31.399 --> 00:27:33.319
 and

00:27:33.319 --> 00:27:33.459
 they

00:27:33.459 --> 00:27:33.699
 acted

00:27:33.699 --> 00:27:33.919
 upon

00:27:33.919 --> 00:27:34.099
 that

00:27:34.099 --> 00:27:34.479
 jealousy

00:27:34.479 --> 00:27:34.859
 by

00:27:34.859 --> 00:27:35.319
 taking

00:27:35.319 --> 00:27:35.679
 some

00:27:35.679 --> 00:27:35.919
 wicked

00:27:35.919 --> 00:27:36.219
 men

00:27:36.219 --> 00:27:36.359
 of

00:27:36.359 --> 00:27:36.500
 the

00:27:36.500 --> 00:27:36.879
 rabble

00:27:36.879 --> 00:27:38.119
 they

00:27:38.119 --> 00:27:38.419
 formed

00:27:38.419 --> 00:27:38.579
 a

00:27:38.579 --> 00:27:38.979
 mob

00:27:38.979 --> 00:27:39.959
 they

00:27:39.959 --> 00:27:40.219
 set

00:27:40.219 --> 00:27:40.399
 the

00:27:40.399 --> 00:27:40.639
 city

00:27:40.639 --> 00:27:40.779
 in

00:27:40.779 --> 00:27:40.899
 an

00:27:40.899 --> 00:27:41.379
 uproar

00:27:41.379 --> 00:27:42.479
 they

00:27:42.479 --> 00:27:42.879
 attacked

00:27:42.879 --> 00:27:43.079
 the

00:27:43.079 --> 00:27:43.299
 house

00:27:43.299 --> 00:27:43.459
 of

00:27:43.459 --> 00:27:43.899
 Jason

00:27:43.899 --> 00:27:45.079
 seeking

00:27:45.079 --> 00:27:45.299
 to

00:27:45.299 --> 00:27:45.479
 bring

00:27:45.479 --> 00:27:45.659
 them

00:27:45.659 --> 00:27:45.799
 out

00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:45.919
 to

00:27:45.919 --> 00:27:46.039
 the

00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:46.299
 crowd

00:27:46.299 --> 00:27:46.980
 apparently

00:27:46.980 --> 00:27:47.460
 Jason

00:27:47.460 --> 00:27:47.839
 was

00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:48.440
 a

00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:48.579
 new

00:27:48.579 --> 00:27:48.899
 believer

00:27:48.899 --> 00:27:49.139
 who

00:27:49.139 --> 00:27:49.319
 was

00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:49.720
 hosting

00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:49.940
 the

00:27:49.940 --> 00:27:50.180
 church

00:27:50.180 --> 00:27:50.420
 maybe

00:27:50.420 --> 00:27:50.619
 it's

00:27:50.619 --> 00:27:51.000
 gatherings

00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:51.440
 perhaps

00:27:51.440 --> 00:27:51.700
 is

00:27:51.700 --> 00:27:52.139
 why

00:27:52.139 --> 00:27:52.299
 they

00:27:52.299 --> 00:27:52.639
 targeted

00:27:53.059 --> 00:27:53.480
 particular

00:27:53.480 --> 00:27:53.980
 and

00:27:53.980 --> 00:27:54.119
 when

00:27:54.119 --> 00:27:54.259
 they

00:27:54.259 --> 00:27:54.420
 could

00:27:54.420 --> 00:27:54.579
 not

00:27:54.579 --> 00:27:55.000
 find

00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:55.259
 them

00:27:55.259 --> 00:27:55.940
 they

00:27:55.940 --> 00:27:56.420
 dragged

00:27:56.420 --> 00:27:56.960
 Jason

00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:57.220
 and

00:27:57.220 --> 00:27:57.460
 some

00:27:57.460 --> 00:27:57.539
 of

00:27:57.539 --> 00:27:57.639
 the

00:27:57.639 --> 00:27:58.000

00:27:58.000 --> 00:27:58.339
 before

00:27:58.339 --> 00:27:58.559
 the

 city

00:27:58.759 --> 00:27:59.220

 they

00:27:59.500 --> 00:27:59.639
 were

00:27:59.639 --> 00:27:59.960
 shouting

00:27:59.960 --> 00:28:00.200
 this

00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:00.460
 these

00:28:00.460 --> 00:28:00.819
 men

 same

00:29:10.240 --> 00:29:10.539
 thing

00:29:13.640 --> 00:29:13.759
 you

00:29:13.759 --> 00:29:13.900
 so

00:29:13.900 --> 00:29:14.080
 you

00:29:14.080 --> 00:29:14.259
 can

00:29:14.259 --> 00:29:14.840
 understand

00:29:14.840 --> 00:29:15.039
 the

00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:15.539
 immediate

00:29:15.539 --> 00:29:16.519
 context

00:29:16.519 --> 00:29:17.159
 in

00:29:17.159 --> 00:29:17.579
 which

00:29:17.579 --> 00:29:17.819
 the

00:29:17.819 --> 00:29:18.399
 Thessalonian

00:29:18.399 --> 00:29:18.839
 Christians

00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:19.240
 lived

00:29:19.240 --> 00:29:21.539
 it's

00:29:21.539 --> 00:29:21.680
 an

00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:22.099
 uproar

00:29:22.099 --> 00:29:22.240
 in

00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:22.399
 the

00:29:22.399 --> 00:29:22.639
 city

00:29:22.639 --> 00:29:23.039
 against

00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:23.319
 them

00:29:23.319 --> 00:29:25.259
 because

00:29:25.259 --> 00:29:25.539
 of

00:29:25.539 --> 00:29:25.720
 the

00:29:25.720 --> 00:29:26.159
 jealousy

00:29:26.159 --> 00:29:27.099
 in

00:29:27.099 --> 00:29:27.460
 this

00:29:27.460 --> 00:29:28.500
 moment

00:29:28.500 --> 00:29:29.359
 especially

00:29:29.359 --> 00:29:29.960
 from

00:29:29.960 --> 00:29:31.000
 the

00:29:31.000 --> 00:29:31.299
 Jews

00:29:31.299 --> 00:29:31.460
 who

00:29:31.460 --> 00:29:31.639
 didn't

00:29:31.639 --> 00:29:32.059
 appreciate

00:29:32.059 --> 00:29:32.480
 those

00:29:32.480 --> 00:29:32.639
 who

00:29:32.639 --> 00:29:32.779
 were

00:29:32.779 --> 00:29:33.019
 being

00:29:33.019 --> 00:29:33.519
 converted

00:29:33.519 --> 00:29:34.119
 to

00:29:34.119 --> 00:29:34.559
 Christianity

00:29:34.559 --> 00:29:36.180

00:29:36.180 --> 00:29:36.339
 they're

00:29:36.339 --> 00:29:36.579
 so

00:29:36.579 --> 00:29:37.019
 agitated

00:29:37.019 --> 00:29:37.379
 by it

00:29:37.379 --> 00:29:37.500
 that

00:29:37.500 --> 00:29:37.899
 they're

00:29:37.899 --> 00:29:38.079
 not

00:29:38.079 --> 00:29:38.299
 just

00:29:38.299 --> 00:29:38.720
 content

00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:39.180
 to

 cause

00:29:39.399 --> 00:29:39.539
 a

 ruckus

00:29:39.879 --> 00:29:40.039

00:29:43.319 --> 00:29:43.440
 they

00:29:43.440 --> 00:29:43.559
 do

00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:43.740
 the

00:29:43.740 --> 00:29:43.960
 same

 persecuting

00:30:06.919 --> 00:30:07.079
 them

00:30:07.079 --> 00:30:07.379
 for the

 yet

00:30:12.159 --> 00:30:12.299
 they

00:30:14.839 --> 00:30:15.659
 that's

 kind of

00:30:15.879 --> 00:30:16.000
 the

00:30:16.000 --> 00:30:16.299
 amazing

00:30:16.299 --> 00:30:16.599
 part

00:30:16.599 --> 00:30:16.779

00:30:16.779 --> 00:30:17.019
 it

00:30:17.019 --> 00:30:19.240
 Jesus

00:30:19.240 --> 00:30:19.539
 said

00:30:19.539 --> 00:30:20.119
 he

 one

00:30:21.059 --> 00:30:21.279
 time

00:30:21.279 --> 00:30:21.399
 of

00:30:21.539 --> 00:30:21.859
 soils

00:30:21.859 --> 00:30:22.039
 and

00:30:22.039 --> 00:30:22.139
 he

00:30:22.139 --> 00:30:22.319
 said

00:30:22.319 --> 00:30:22.439
 that

00:30:22.439 --> 00:30:22.559
 there

00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:22.720
 would

00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:22.859
 be

00:30:22.859 --> 00:30:23.059
 some

00:30:23.059 --> 00:30:23.359
 people

00:30:23.359 --> 00:30:23.539
 who

00:30:23.539 --> 00:30:23.720

00:30:24.279 --> 00:30:24.579
 gospel

00:30:24.579 --> 00:30:24.740

00:30:24.740 --> 00:30:24.819
 it

00:30:24.819 --> 00:30:24.939
 would

00:30:24.939 --> 00:30:25.139
 seem

 like

00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:26.980
 front

00:30:26.980 --> 00:30:27.159
 end

00:30:27.159 --> 00:30:27.359
 they

00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:27.839
 kind

00:30:28.599 --> 00:30:29.000
 are

00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:29.419
 joyed

00:30:29.419 --> 00:30:29.500
 at

00:30:29.500 --> 00:30:29.619
 the

00:30:29.619 --> 00:30:30.019
 prospect

00:30:30.019 --> 00:30:30.259
 of

 then

00:30:31.099 --> 00:30:31.579
 over

00:30:31.579 --> 00:30:32.259
 time

00:30:33.220 --> 00:30:33.779
 persecution

00:30:33.779 --> 00:30:34.059

00:30:34.059 --> 00:30:34.439
 in

00:30:34.439 --> 00:30:34.539
 the

00:30:34.539 --> 00:30:35.019
 illustration

00:30:35.019 --> 00:30:35.299
 he

00:30:35.299 --> 00:30:35.480
 says

00:30:35.480 --> 00:30:35.659
 the

00:30:35.659 --> 00:30:35.819
 sun

00:30:35.819 --> 00:30:36.059

00:30:36.059 --> 00:30:36.159
 out

00:30:36.159 --> 00:30:36.240
 and

00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:36.299
 it

 they

00:30:38.039 --> 00:30:38.079
 are

00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:38.220
 not

00:30:38.220 --> 00:30:38.460
 really

00:30:38.460 --> 00:30:38.740
 rooted

00:30:39.339 --> 00:30:39.539

00:30:39.539 --> 00:30:39.700
 so

00:30:39.700 --> 00:30:39.879
 they

00:30:39.879 --> 00:30:40.139
 burn

00:30:40.139 --> 00:30:40.299
 up

00:30:40.299 --> 00:30:40.419
 they

00:30:40.419 --> 00:30:40.599
 fade

00:30:40.599 --> 00:30:40.839

 away

00:30:41.539 --> 00:30:42.939
 and

00:30:42.939 --> 00:30:43.019
 he

00:30:43.019 --> 00:30:43.200
 says

00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:43.419
 they

00:30:43.419 --> 00:30:43.779
 yeah

 they

00:30:43.939 --> 00:30:44.079
 were

00:30:44.079 --> 00:30:44.539
 excited

00:30:44.539 --> 00:30:44.720
 about

00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:44.859
 the

 really

00:30:46.460 --> 00:30:47.460
 accepted

00:30:47.460 --> 00:30:47.679
 it

00:30:47.679 --> 00:30:48.099
 truly

00:30:48.099 --> 00:30:49.159
 he

00:30:49.159 --> 00:30:49.319
 said

00:30:49.319 --> 00:30:49.439
 but

00:30:49.439 --> 00:30:49.639
 there

00:30:49.639 --> 00:30:49.779
 are

00:30:49.779 --> 00:30:50.240
 those

 doesn't

00:30:52.639 --> 00:30:52.980
 happen

00:30:52.980 --> 00:30:53.220
 the

00:30:53.220 --> 00:30:53.579
 sun

00:30:53.579 --> 00:30:53.839
 comes

00:30:53.839 --> 00:30:54.059
 out

00:30:54.059 --> 00:30:54.179

 it

00:30:54.279 --> 00:30:54.399
 gets

 real

00:30:54.619 --> 00:30:54.939
 hot

 they

00:30:57.539 --> 00:30:57.940
 remain

00:30:57.940 --> 00:30:59.619
 that's

00:30:59.619 --> 00:30:59.799
 what

00:30:59.799 --> 00:30:59.960
 the

00:30:59.960 --> 00:31:00.279
 Christians

00:31:00.279 --> 00:31:00.500
 in

00:31:00.500 --> 00:31:01.139
 Thessalonica

00:31:01.139 --> 00:31:01.359
 were

00:31:01.359 --> 00:31:01.680
 like

00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:02.359
 things

00:31:02.359 --> 00:31:02.559
 got

00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:02.779
 real

00:31:02.779 --> 00:31:03.139
 hard

00:31:03.139 --> 00:31:04.200
 and

00:31:04.200 --> 00:31:04.339
 yet

00:31:04.339 --> 00:31:04.500
 they

00:31:04.500 --> 00:31:04.759
 didn't

00:31:04.759 --> 00:31:05.119
 waver

00:31:05.119 --> 00:31:05.759
 why

00:31:05.759 --> 00:31:07.599
 why

00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:09.619
 because

00:31:09.619 --> 00:31:09.819
 they

00:31:09.819 --> 00:31:10.180
 believed

00:31:10.180 --> 00:31:10.359
 the

00:31:10.359 --> 00:31:10.700
 gospel

00:31:10.700 --> 00:31:10.960
 was

00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:11.099
 the

00:31:11.099 --> 00:31:11.259
 word

00:31:11.259 --> 00:31:11.399
 of

00:31:11.399 --> 00:31:11.680
 God

00:31:11.680 --> 00:31:13.899
 that

00:31:13.899 --> 00:31:14.000
 it

00:31:14.000 --> 00:31:14.119
 was

00:31:14.119 --> 00:31:14.539
 absolute

00:31:14.539 --> 00:31:15.099
 truth

00:31:15.099 --> 00:31:16.680
 that

00:31:16.680 --> 00:31:16.779
 it

00:31:16.779 --> 00:31:16.899
 was

00:31:16.899 --> 00:31:17.139
 worth

00:31:17.139 --> 00:31:17.539
 dying

00:31:17.539 --> 00:31:17.920
 for

00:31:17.920 --> 00:31:19.480
 which

00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:19.619
 is

00:31:19.619 --> 00:31:19.779
 what

00:31:19.779 --> 00:31:19.920
 they

00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:20.059
 were

00:31:20.059 --> 00:31:20.339
 ready

00:31:20.339 --> 00:31:20.539
 to

00:31:20.539 --> 00:31:20.819
 do

00:31:20.819 --> 00:31:22.319
 and

00:31:22.319 --> 00:31:22.519
 it's

00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:22.639
 in

00:31:22.639 --> 00:31:22.879
 this

00:31:22.879 --> 00:31:23.119
 way

00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:23.279
 that

00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:23.420
 they

00:31:23.420 --> 00:31:23.779
 became

00:31:23.779 --> 00:31:24.420
 imitators

00:31:31.259 --> 00:31:31.440
 way

00:31:31.440 --> 00:31:31.640
 not

00:31:31.640 --> 00:31:31.819
 only

00:31:31.819 --> 00:31:31.960
 of

00:31:31.960 --> 00:31:32.180
 Paul

 so

00:31:42.700 --> 00:31:44.099
 that's

00:31:44.099 --> 00:31:44.200
 not

 is

00:34:08.819 --> 00:34:09.019
 the

00:34:09.019 --> 00:34:09.679
 reality

00:34:09.679 --> 00:34:10.699
 for

00:34:10.699 --> 00:34:11.079
 those

00:34:11.079 --> 00:34:11.259

00:34:11.259 --> 00:34:11.460
 do

00:34:11.460 --> 00:34:11.659
 not

00:34:11.659 --> 00:34:12.059
 accept

00:34:12.059 --> 00:34:12.219
 the

00:34:12.219 --> 00:34:12.539
 gospel

00:34:12.539 --> 00:34:12.719
 as

00:34:14.759 --> 00:34:14.920
 to

00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:15.059
 do

00:34:15.059 --> 00:34:15.299
 this

00:34:15.299 --> 00:34:15.440
 would

00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:15.599
 be

00:34:15.599 --> 00:34:16.279
 unfaithful

00:34:16.279 --> 00:34:16.480
 and

 ultimately

00:34:16.940 --> 00:34:18.299
 unhelpful
