00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:06.259
 Mark chapter 6, we're going to begin reading together in verse 30, and we're going to read through the end of the chapter.

00:00:06.259 --> 00:00:11.240
 So hang with me and you'll soon understand why we're going to take such a big chunk of this.

00:00:11.339 --> 00:00:18.320
 Not because I'm in any way eager to get through and to the end of Mark, but it's appropriate to deal with it together this morning.

00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:20.199
 So beginning of verse 30 of chapter 6.

00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:26.160
 The apostles returned to Jesus and told him all that they had done and taught.

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:56.140
 And he said to them,

00:00:56.159 --> 00:01:26.140
 And he said,

00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:56.159


00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:26.159


00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:56.159


00:02:56.159 --> 00:03:05.780
 This is God's word to us written for his glory and our good.

00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:10.379
 We would all do well to listen to it and obey it this morning.

00:03:10.599 --> 00:03:11.280
 Let's pray together.

00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:17.319
 Father, we do praise you this morning for the gift of your word.

00:03:17.780 --> 00:03:23.180
 And we pray now that you will bless us together as we come and meet around it.

00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:25.520
 As we come to look and to gaze into it.

00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:29.280
 As we come to see what it is you would say to us this day by it.

00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:33.860
 Father, we desire to look more like your son.

00:03:34.580 --> 00:03:37.400
 And you accomplish that by your spirit and the preaching of your word.

00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:40.039
 And we pray that that will be done in us this day.

00:03:40.780 --> 00:03:43.219
 Make us more like him that we might exalt his name.

00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:45.400
 And we pray this in Christ's name.

00:03:46.060 --> 00:03:46.340
 Amen.

00:03:46.340 --> 00:03:46.460
 Amen.

00:03:48.020 --> 00:03:50.400
 So, we're coming to the end of chapter 6.

00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:54.420
 And we have now seen miracle after miracle after miracle.

00:03:54.980 --> 00:03:58.400
 In fact, Mark has been driving that kind of in comic book fashion.

00:03:58.539 --> 00:04:01.520
 He's just been laying them out to us again and again and again.

00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:03.319
 And here we see three more miracles.

00:04:03.460 --> 00:04:05.640
 Rather magnificent ones.

00:04:05.900 --> 00:04:06.620
 Two specific.

00:04:06.819 --> 00:04:09.759
 And then a summary of Jesus' healing ministry.

00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:11.819
 We've seen so far in the Gospel of Mark.

00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:13.340
 Jesus' power over sickness.

00:04:13.799 --> 00:04:14.840
 Over demons.

00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:16.099
 Over creation.

00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:16.959
 Over death.

00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:18.399
 And over sin.

00:04:18.500 --> 00:04:21.759
 And what Mark is doing for us in here is he's crying out to us.

00:04:21.860 --> 00:04:23.560
 Jesus is the Christ.

00:04:23.939 --> 00:04:26.519
 Jesus is the anointed one of God.

00:04:26.699 --> 00:04:27.980
 Believe in Him.

00:04:27.980 --> 00:04:30.019
 This is the point of his Gospel.

00:04:30.139 --> 00:04:32.439
 That we might recognize Him for who He is.

00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:34.639
 And follow Him accordingly.

00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:35.839
 That is the cry.

00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:39.740
 We have come now as we've been kind of marching through here.

00:04:40.039 --> 00:04:41.699
 We've seen at the end of chapter 4.

00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:43.539
 Jesus calming the Sea of Galilee.

00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:45.819
 These massive waves that would rise up.

00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:47.060
 Up to 10 feet tall.

00:04:47.339 --> 00:04:49.240
 He simply speaks and it's calmed.

00:04:49.599 --> 00:04:50.599
 He then lands on the shore.

00:04:50.740 --> 00:04:53.699
 Casts out an army of demons out of a man.

00:04:53.779 --> 00:04:56.000
 Puts them in pigs who drown in the sea.

00:04:56.139 --> 00:04:58.519
 We've seen countless healings.

00:04:59.019 --> 00:05:00.719
 Even summary of healings.

00:05:00.899 --> 00:05:03.219
 Many, many people were being healed.

00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:08.039
 It said that illness was altogether eradicated from Israel in this day.

00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:10.660
 We've seen Him raise a young girl from the dead.

00:05:11.460 --> 00:05:14.500
 We've seen Him rejected in His hometown.

00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:19.560
 Which He then goes and sends out the Twelve on their first journey apart from Him.

00:05:20.080 --> 00:05:23.580
 And then we saw last week the death of John the Baptist.

00:05:23.900 --> 00:05:25.140
 And this is where we come.

00:05:25.379 --> 00:05:28.379
 And we see the apostles are returning.

00:05:28.379 --> 00:05:31.120
 They do a one verse debrief.

00:05:31.259 --> 00:05:35.019
 I'd love to know some of the details of all that they had done and taught.

00:05:35.100 --> 00:05:38.159
 But this is the detail that Mark gives us at this juncture.

00:05:38.620 --> 00:05:39.339
 And Jesus says,

00:05:39.740 --> 00:05:43.000
 Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.

00:05:43.060 --> 00:05:44.759
 Which is a plan that's interrupted.

00:05:45.420 --> 00:05:49.159
 And then we see this coming series of miracles that are performed.

00:05:49.659 --> 00:05:53.120
 These are the last miracles that Jesus will perform in Galilee.

00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:58.420
 These two specific, the walking on water, the feeding of the 5,000.

00:05:58.579 --> 00:06:03.639
 And then this kind of summary at the end of chapter 6 of this great number that's being healed.

00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:05.100
 And after this, He leaves.

00:06:05.180 --> 00:06:09.060
 He goes off to the Mediterranean coast, to the region of Tyre and Sidon.

00:06:09.220 --> 00:06:10.840
 And He doesn't return to Galilee.

00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:14.340
 This is His third time He's kind of made a sweep through the region.

00:06:15.259 --> 00:06:20.220
 This is, if you will think of it in this way, kind of His last sermon presentation.

00:06:20.220 --> 00:06:26.280
 This is His last days in this region, preaching the good news of the coming kingdom of God.

00:06:27.220 --> 00:06:34.620
 So we would be remiss today if we didn't spend some time certainly talking about the amazing, incredible nature,

00:06:34.760 --> 00:06:37.020
 awesome nature of these miracles.

00:06:37.520 --> 00:06:42.720
 We see the first one that feeds all these people that are gathered.

00:06:42.880 --> 00:06:44.160
 We see 5,000 men.

00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:46.080
 Matthew makes it a little more explicit for us.

00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:49.339
 It says 5,000 men besides women and children.

00:06:49.859 --> 00:06:53.039
 Likely that every man there would have had a wife and some kids.

00:06:53.919 --> 00:07:00.599
 Most scholars estimate somewhere between 20,000 and 25,000 people had followed them around the side of the sea

00:07:00.599 --> 00:07:02.599
 and met them where they landed.

00:07:03.579 --> 00:07:07.419
 There are only two miracles that are recorded in all four Gospels.

00:07:07.759 --> 00:07:08.379
 There's only two.

00:07:09.379 --> 00:07:11.240
 First is the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:13.379
 All four Gospels speak of that miracle.

00:07:13.899 --> 00:07:16.579
 The second is this one, the feeding of the 5,000.

00:07:17.100 --> 00:07:19.100
 Which means that it has some special significance.

00:07:19.719 --> 00:07:20.500
 It's amazing.

00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:22.240
 It's an incredible feat that He accomplished.

00:07:22.339 --> 00:07:24.019
 But He's also done some other very incredible things.

00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:24.939
 He's raised people from the dead.

00:07:25.180 --> 00:07:26.899
 He's cast out legions of demons.

00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:28.659
 He's calmed a storm.

00:07:28.719 --> 00:07:30.800
 He's done all of this with the power of His Word.

00:07:30.819 --> 00:07:32.819
 He's going to walk on water right after this.

00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:33.959
 Incredible, incredible things.

00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:39.599
 But all four of the Gospel writers were inspired to record this particular miracle.

00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:42.299
 Next we see Him walking on water.

00:07:42.379 --> 00:07:45.000
 Again, having dominion over creation.

00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:50.039
 I, just for fun, was looking around on the internet a couple months ago

00:07:50.039 --> 00:07:52.839
 and found a group of guys that are trying to run on water.

00:07:52.979 --> 00:07:54.819
 This is like their new sport that they're doing.

00:07:55.159 --> 00:08:00.379
 And they've managed to run fast enough that they can get about three steps out into the water before they sink.

00:08:00.379 --> 00:08:03.680
 And it's kind of hilarious because they have to capture it on high-speed footage

00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:05.699
 to even know that they're staying on top of the water.

00:08:05.980 --> 00:08:07.860
 Because it's fairly, when you watch them do it, you're like,

00:08:08.100 --> 00:08:09.199
 Yep, I've done that before.

00:08:09.339 --> 00:08:11.120
 Run and crash into the water.

00:08:11.699 --> 00:08:15.699
 But Jesus Himself took a stroll in a storm out on the sea.

00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:18.620
 In fact, the record is that He intended just to pass by them.

00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:22.939
 He was just going to walk on past as they were trying to tack in this storm,

00:08:23.259 --> 00:08:26.620
 try to sail against the wind and arrive on the other coast.

00:08:26.719 --> 00:08:29.480
 But when they see Him, He enters the boat with them.

00:08:29.480 --> 00:08:32.180
 And then again, as I said, at the end here we see,

00:08:32.879 --> 00:08:35.879
 after these things happen, this summary of healing.

00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:40.100
 Anybody who heard coming to Him that they just might touch Him.

00:08:40.159 --> 00:08:43.399
 He had that kind of power radiated out of Him.

00:08:43.420 --> 00:08:48.340
 If somebody would just touch Him, they would be healed of whatever infirmary they had.

00:08:48.680 --> 00:08:50.740
 So incredible miracles. Incredible.

00:08:51.019 --> 00:08:54.800
 We have said time and time again, look at these miracles.

00:08:54.800 --> 00:08:58.899
 Look at the way in which they lend evidence to the message that He was preaching.

00:08:58.899 --> 00:09:00.559
 And that was the point all along.

00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:04.779
 Jesus worked in these supernatural ways to say to people,

00:09:05.139 --> 00:09:07.519
 listen to what I am telling you.

00:09:08.259 --> 00:09:10.100
 People thronged around Him.

00:09:10.459 --> 00:09:12.299
 Many thousands of people.

00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:16.480
 Here we see likely 20 to 25,000 people.

00:09:16.740 --> 00:09:18.459
 And if you'll catch this, they're kind of dumb.

00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:21.259
 They've left and chased Him around the Sea of Galilee

00:09:21.259 --> 00:09:23.039
 and have no provision for the day.

00:09:23.039 --> 00:09:25.579
 Right? They're sheep wandering about

00:09:25.579 --> 00:09:28.959
 and they've wandered together to meet Him on the other side of the sea.

00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:30.899
 He's constantly pressed around.

00:09:31.079 --> 00:09:33.939
 But He did all of this that people might hear the good news

00:09:33.939 --> 00:09:36.339
 of the coming kingdom of God.

00:09:36.579 --> 00:09:39.339
 We would do well to hear that from Him today.

00:09:39.579 --> 00:09:41.939
 So I want us to note three things from the text.

00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:47.059
 Firstly, notice Jesus' compassion.

00:09:48.179 --> 00:09:49.799
 Notice His compassion.

00:09:49.799 --> 00:09:51.639
 Verse 34 says,

00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:54.039
 He had compassion on them because

00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:57.579
 they were like sheep without a shepherd.

00:09:58.179 --> 00:10:00.240
 Now I just want you to put in your mind

00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:02.339
 kind of what's been going on and where Jesus is at.

00:10:02.620 --> 00:10:04.919
 He's just been rejected in His hometown.

00:10:05.740 --> 00:10:07.740
 Small town. Very little town Nazareth was.

00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:10.139
 Everybody in Nazareth knew Him.

00:10:10.479 --> 00:10:13.000
 And in fact, this wasn't the first time He had been rejected.

00:10:13.079 --> 00:10:14.120
 This is the second time He had been rejected.

00:10:14.199 --> 00:10:15.599
 He had been there about a year prior

00:10:15.599 --> 00:10:17.019
 and they tried to throw Him off a cliff.

00:10:17.019 --> 00:10:19.220
 And seemingly in some miraculous way,

00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:21.360
 He passed through them and got away.

00:10:21.460 --> 00:10:22.899
 So this is the second time He returns

00:10:22.899 --> 00:10:24.740
 and He's once again rejected.

00:10:24.819 --> 00:10:27.960
 And it actually says that He marveled at their unbelief.

00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:30.240
 That He was amazed by the fact

00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:32.759
 that they wouldn't accept Him as the Christ.

00:10:33.199 --> 00:10:34.759
 We talked when we looked at that text

00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:36.960
 that He did this to set an example for the apostles.

00:10:37.079 --> 00:10:38.340
 He's about to send them out.

00:10:38.980 --> 00:10:40.340
 He's going to give them some instruction

00:10:40.340 --> 00:10:41.879
 on what to do when they're rejected.

00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:44.480
 So He's a living example in that way.

00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:45.220
 And He goes and says,

00:10:45.500 --> 00:10:45.720
 See?

00:10:46.220 --> 00:10:48.200
 People are going to reject even the Christ.

00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:49.960
 Of course they will reject you.

00:10:50.259 --> 00:10:51.060
 And He sends them out.

00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:52.620
 And then we get this story

00:10:52.620 --> 00:10:54.779
 interjected in the middle of all of this.

00:10:54.860 --> 00:10:55.639
 It kind of...

00:10:55.639 --> 00:10:57.659
 It's almost like you go to a different scene altogether.

00:10:57.659 --> 00:10:58.820
 And we get this story

00:10:58.820 --> 00:11:01.759
 of Herod beheading John the Baptist,

00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:04.659
 which Kyle did a wonderful job with last week.

00:11:05.460 --> 00:11:06.720
 And this is the end of that.

00:11:06.779 --> 00:11:08.899
 This is the finality of that.

00:11:08.899 --> 00:11:10.639
 We see in verse 29 of chapter 6,

00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:11.840
 When His disciples heard of it,

00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:13.919
 they came and took His body

00:11:13.919 --> 00:11:15.579
 and laid it in a tomb.

00:11:16.179 --> 00:11:17.240
 And then we see the record

00:11:17.240 --> 00:11:19.019
 that the apostles returned to Jesus.

00:11:19.139 --> 00:11:20.379
 And certainly, Jesus,

00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:22.059
 if He hadn't already heard the news

00:11:22.059 --> 00:11:23.759
 that John the Baptist had been beheaded,

00:11:24.079 --> 00:11:25.079
 heard it at this point.

00:11:25.500 --> 00:11:27.019
 The apostles returned to Him

00:11:27.019 --> 00:11:28.840
 and He knows at this point

00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:31.179
 what has happened to His cousin

00:11:31.179 --> 00:11:32.579
 of some relation,

00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:34.539
 some type of cousin, friend,

00:11:34.539 --> 00:11:36.000
 the one who came before Him

00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:37.539
 and heralded His coming.

00:11:37.539 --> 00:11:39.839
 This man meant a lot to Him.

00:11:40.439 --> 00:11:41.500
 And the response is,

00:11:42.339 --> 00:11:43.339
 Come away by yourselves

00:11:43.339 --> 00:11:45.360
 to a desolate place

00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:46.379
 and rest a while.

00:11:47.179 --> 00:11:48.199
 And note that at this point,

00:11:48.259 --> 00:11:48.939
 He is with them,

00:11:49.059 --> 00:11:50.099
 also going away

00:11:50.099 --> 00:11:51.699
 to a desolate place

00:11:51.699 --> 00:11:53.120
 to rest a while.

00:11:53.459 --> 00:11:54.339
 And they're interrupted

00:11:54.339 --> 00:11:55.860
 in this plan to go

00:11:55.860 --> 00:11:58.019
 and to be still

00:11:58.019 --> 00:11:59.500
 and to recharge

00:11:59.500 --> 00:12:02.319
 by a throng of people.

00:12:02.860 --> 00:12:03.740
 And I have to tell you

00:12:03.740 --> 00:12:05.179
 that this text

00:12:05.179 --> 00:12:06.480
 has particularly ministered to me

00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:07.580
 over the last couple of weeks

00:12:07.580 --> 00:12:09.360
 because I get this way sometimes.

00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:11.060
 I get just so drained.

00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:13.220
 And I'm just so tired.

00:12:13.340 --> 00:12:14.700
 And then the phone call comes.

00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:15.680
 Right?

00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:16.360
 And you just go,

00:12:16.500 --> 00:12:18.019
 Oh, not another phone call.

00:12:18.379 --> 00:12:19.420
 I don't know if I can handle

00:12:19.420 --> 00:12:20.019
 another thing.

00:12:20.060 --> 00:12:20.680
 I don't know that I have

00:12:20.680 --> 00:12:22.580
 anything else to give.

00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:23.980
 And I imagine that this is the place

00:12:23.980 --> 00:12:24.960
 that Jesus is at

00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:25.980
 at this time.

00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:26.440
 Right?

00:12:27.399 --> 00:12:28.060
 Perfectly human.

00:12:28.539 --> 00:12:29.259
 Perfectly God.

00:12:29.259 --> 00:12:30.700
 I'm sure He had much more energy

00:12:30.700 --> 00:12:32.000
 than I'll ever have in my life.

00:12:32.039 --> 00:12:34.159
 However, He was, in fact, human.

00:12:34.259 --> 00:12:35.100
 He felt pain.

00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:36.379
 He felt sorrow.

00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:37.659
 And here He's experiencing

00:12:37.659 --> 00:12:40.200
 the loss of John the Baptist.

00:12:40.539 --> 00:12:41.259
 He's been rejected

00:12:41.259 --> 00:12:42.299
 in His hometown.

00:12:42.860 --> 00:12:43.840
 And rather than

00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:45.080
 turning the crowd away,

00:12:45.379 --> 00:12:46.639
 rather than getting back in the boat

00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:47.679
 and sailing someplace else,

00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:48.500
 that's what I would have done.

00:12:48.659 --> 00:12:50.679
 I would have taken off in the sea

00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:52.399
 and stayed out there to rest.

00:12:52.659 --> 00:12:53.779
 He sees the people

00:12:53.779 --> 00:12:56.299
 and He has compassion on them.

00:12:56.799 --> 00:12:58.200
 He sees them in their state.

00:12:58.200 --> 00:12:59.040
 They're like sheep.

00:12:59.360 --> 00:13:00.660
 And if you don't know much about sheep,

00:13:00.759 --> 00:13:02.440
 sheep are fairly dumb animals.

00:13:03.100 --> 00:13:04.520
 They need a shepherd.

00:13:04.940 --> 00:13:06.120
 Sheep are left to themselves.

00:13:06.520 --> 00:13:07.540
 They get slaughtered.

00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:09.280
 Wolves come in and they kill them.

00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:10.100
 They need a shepherd.

00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:11.000
 A shepherd protects them.

00:13:11.300 --> 00:13:12.259
 A shepherd leads them

00:13:12.259 --> 00:13:14.660
 to good grass and clean water.

00:13:14.780 --> 00:13:16.600
 They don't do that on their own.

00:13:16.920 --> 00:13:18.280
 They wander around

00:13:18.280 --> 00:13:20.379
 hoping to find good grass

00:13:20.379 --> 00:13:21.280
 and clean water.

00:13:21.640 --> 00:13:23.800
 Sheep are dependent on a shepherd.

00:13:23.900 --> 00:13:26.300
 And this is how He views them.

00:13:26.400 --> 00:13:27.200
 He has compassion.

00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:27.759
 He has compassion.

00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:29.560
 Another wonderful example of this

00:13:29.560 --> 00:13:30.580
 is when He's coming into

00:13:30.580 --> 00:13:32.400
 the city of Jerusalem.

00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:34.340
 These are His people

00:13:34.340 --> 00:13:35.300
 who are apostate.

00:13:35.379 --> 00:13:36.120
 They have rejected

00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:38.020
 what God has told them

00:13:38.020 --> 00:13:38.680
 in the Old Testament

00:13:38.680 --> 00:13:39.540
 of the coming of the Christ.

00:13:39.620 --> 00:13:41.600
 They are about to reject Jesus Himself.

00:13:42.020 --> 00:13:43.000
 It says that when He drew near

00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:43.780
 and saw the city,

00:13:43.860 --> 00:13:44.980
 He wept over it.

00:13:46.300 --> 00:13:48.259
 A heartfelt compassion.

00:13:48.860 --> 00:13:50.200
 A man who was God,

00:13:50.800 --> 00:13:52.379
 who knew how it was

00:13:52.379 --> 00:13:53.360
 that God was going to play out

00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:54.740
 redemptive history in the world.

00:13:54.740 --> 00:13:56.240
 And yet we see Him

00:13:56.240 --> 00:13:57.060
 with the people

00:13:57.060 --> 00:13:58.100
 who were coming to seek

00:13:58.100 --> 00:13:59.659
 just what they could get from Him.

00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:00.779
 Heal us.

00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:02.620
 Do miraculous things for us.

00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:04.120
 Give us food to eat.

00:14:04.299 --> 00:14:06.500
 And He had compassion on them.

00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:08.820
 He provides for their needs here.

00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:10.139
 Their temporal,

00:14:10.299 --> 00:14:12.120
 or if you prefer the word physical,

00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:14.620
 He provides for their temporal needs.

00:14:14.740 --> 00:14:15.840
 And Mark doesn't record this,

00:14:15.899 --> 00:14:16.720
 but in other accounts,

00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:18.659
 like in Luke 9, verse 11,

00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:20.779
 it says that He cured those

00:14:20.779 --> 00:14:22.060
 who had need of healing.

00:14:22.059 --> 00:14:23.339
 So He does some healing

00:14:23.339 --> 00:14:24.679
 at this time as well.

00:14:25.659 --> 00:14:27.959
 Matthew 6, verse 31-33,

00:14:28.079 --> 00:14:30.459
 which precedes Matthew's account

00:14:30.459 --> 00:14:32.579
 of the feeding of the 5,000

00:14:32.579 --> 00:14:33.500
 in chapter 14.

00:14:34.059 --> 00:14:35.059
 Jesus teaches this,

00:14:35.139 --> 00:14:37.959
 which Wes alluded to earlier.

00:14:38.339 --> 00:14:39.079
 Beginning verse 31,

00:14:39.219 --> 00:14:39.919
 Do not be anxious,

00:14:40.099 --> 00:14:40.379
 saying,

00:14:40.619 --> 00:14:41.500
 What shall we eat?

00:14:41.779 --> 00:14:42.959
 Or what shall we drink?

00:14:43.219 --> 00:14:44.500
 Or what shall we wear?

00:14:44.859 --> 00:14:45.839
 For the Gentiles,

00:14:45.899 --> 00:14:47.339
 or those outside of the kingdom,

00:14:47.519 --> 00:14:49.000
 seek after all these things,

00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:50.000
 and your heavenly Father

00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:51.840
 knows that you need them all.

00:14:52.419 --> 00:14:53.940
 But seek first the kingdom of God

00:14:53.940 --> 00:14:54.679
 and His righteousness,

00:14:55.019 --> 00:14:56.500
 and all these things

00:14:56.500 --> 00:14:58.320
 will be added to you.

00:14:58.820 --> 00:15:00.279
 So He provides for their need.

00:15:00.940 --> 00:15:02.620
 They're there stupidly

00:15:02.620 --> 00:15:03.840
 wandering into the wilderness

00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:06.220
 to follow Him without provision.

00:15:06.879 --> 00:15:08.059
 And the apostles are smart

00:15:08.059 --> 00:15:08.639
 in this regard.

00:15:08.740 --> 00:15:10.480
 They see the time that's growing late.

00:15:10.659 --> 00:15:11.360
 Very pragmatic.

00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:12.320
 Send them away.

00:15:12.659 --> 00:15:13.480
 Send them back to town.

00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:14.460
 They've got to buy provision

00:15:14.460 --> 00:15:16.039
 so that they can survive.

00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:17.599
 And Jesus instead,

00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:20.299
 in this incredibly miraculous way,

00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:23.740
 in a creation from almost nothing,

00:15:23.899 --> 00:15:25.899
 creates food to feed

00:15:25.899 --> 00:15:28.740
 20,000 to 25,000 people.

00:15:28.980 --> 00:15:31.139
 And that is a staggering number of people.

00:15:31.199 --> 00:15:31.699
 I don't know if you can even

00:15:31.699 --> 00:15:32.599
 wrap your mind around.

00:15:32.740 --> 00:15:34.179
 I can't think of a gathering we have

00:15:34.179 --> 00:15:36.959
 that's 20,000 to 25,000 people.

00:15:37.179 --> 00:15:38.919
 But do that in terms of

00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:41.599
 wedding plate cost.

00:15:42.259 --> 00:15:44.059
 Some of you are young, married,

00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:45.519
 caterers come and cater.

00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:47.399
 Let's say $10 a plate.

00:15:48.340 --> 00:15:49.980
 $200,000 worth of food.

00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:52.120
 That is a lot of food.

00:15:52.439 --> 00:15:55.259
 This was an abundance of food.

00:15:55.340 --> 00:15:56.519
 This was no small snack

00:15:57.100 --> 00:15:58.059
 split up amongst people.

00:15:58.159 --> 00:15:59.939
 They ate until they were full.

00:16:00.259 --> 00:16:02.360
 And there was food left over.

00:16:02.500 --> 00:16:03.600
 The food abounded,

00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:04.340
 which is the point

00:16:04.340 --> 00:16:06.000
 of the gathering of baskets.

00:16:06.179 --> 00:16:07.480
 Jesus not only provided for their need,

00:16:07.539 --> 00:16:09.279
 but He went above and beyond

00:16:09.279 --> 00:16:10.259
 in His blessing

00:16:10.259 --> 00:16:12.539
 as He created food for them.

00:16:12.860 --> 00:16:14.419
 So He provided for their temporal,

00:16:14.419 --> 00:16:16.219
 their physical needs.

00:16:16.659 --> 00:16:18.159
 But more importantly than that,

00:16:18.819 --> 00:16:19.919
 He was looking to meet

00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:22.120
 their spiritual needs.

00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:24.099
 And herein is a lesson.

00:16:24.819 --> 00:16:25.919
 Those of us who are ministers

00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:26.679
 of the gospel of God,

00:16:26.719 --> 00:16:28.019
 and I don't mean in a special position

00:16:28.019 --> 00:16:29.159
 like I hold,

00:16:29.779 --> 00:16:31.019
 but those of us who are Christians,

00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:31.519
 who are ministering

00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:32.199
 the gospel of God,

00:16:32.379 --> 00:16:33.579
 what we need to give to people

00:16:33.580 --> 00:16:35.020
 is their real needs,

00:16:35.160 --> 00:16:36.980
 not their felt needs.

00:16:37.820 --> 00:16:39.420
 Some people think they need

00:16:39.420 --> 00:16:39.920
 a certain,

00:16:40.139 --> 00:16:41.320
 have something that they need met,

00:16:41.460 --> 00:16:42.259
 but it's not necessarily

00:16:42.259 --> 00:16:43.240
 what they really need.

00:16:43.280 --> 00:16:44.520
 And what people really need

00:16:44.520 --> 00:16:45.680
 is their hearts addressed.

00:16:45.820 --> 00:16:46.720
 People really need

00:16:46.720 --> 00:16:47.820
 the good news

00:16:47.820 --> 00:16:48.600
 of the kingdom of God

00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:49.680
 to get inside of them

00:16:49.680 --> 00:16:50.740
 and work in them.

00:16:50.759 --> 00:16:51.879
 And this is what we see Jesus doing.

00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:52.860
 Verse 34,

00:16:53.100 --> 00:16:53.820
 the second half.

00:16:53.900 --> 00:16:55.240
 And He began teaching them

00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:56.800
 many things.

00:16:57.699 --> 00:16:59.099
 20 to 25,000 people.

00:16:59.199 --> 00:17:01.120
 He sits down on the shore with them

00:17:01.120 --> 00:17:02.359
 and begins to teach them

00:17:02.359 --> 00:17:03.199
 many things.

00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:04.059
 What was His message?

00:17:04.299 --> 00:17:05.059
 It was the good news

00:17:05.059 --> 00:17:05.940
 of the kingdom of God.

00:17:06.940 --> 00:17:08.240
 What are God's ways?

00:17:08.339 --> 00:17:09.359
 How can you bring yourself

00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:10.359
 under them?

00:17:10.419 --> 00:17:11.379
 How can you have life

00:17:11.379 --> 00:17:13.200
 and life everlasting?

00:17:14.059 --> 00:17:15.220
 Now there's some other keys

00:17:15.220 --> 00:17:15.859
 in this text

00:17:15.859 --> 00:17:16.720
 for what He was doing

00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:17.940
 and why we can know

00:17:17.940 --> 00:17:19.039
 that He was looking to meet

00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:20.279
 their spiritual needs.

00:17:21.139 --> 00:17:23.539
 Because we see some typology

00:17:23.539 --> 00:17:24.359
 play out here.

00:17:24.819 --> 00:17:26.240
 Now let me explain quickly to you

00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:27.000
 typology.

00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:28.500
 This is a super brief summary.

00:17:29.259 --> 00:17:29.779
 A type,

00:17:29.900 --> 00:17:30.440
 if we talk about

00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:31.660
 an Old Testament type

00:17:31.660 --> 00:17:32.420
 of Christ,

00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:33.319
 we're not saying

00:17:33.319 --> 00:17:34.440
 a version of Christ.

00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:35.220
 That's the way we use

00:17:35.220 --> 00:17:36.039
 the word type

00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:37.180
 in our modern English.

00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:37.680
 We're not saying

00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:38.339
 a version of Christ.

00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:39.319
 We're talking about

00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:41.259
 a character who prefigures

00:17:41.259 --> 00:17:43.359
 or who supersedes Christ.

00:17:44.120 --> 00:17:46.200
 To speak in the typology terms,

00:17:46.299 --> 00:17:47.420
 the anti-type, right?

00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:49.380
 Which is the greater thing.

00:17:49.819 --> 00:17:51.559
 So it shows us a shadow

00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:52.839
 of something that is to come.

00:17:53.059 --> 00:17:53.680
 And they're all throughout

00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:54.279
 the Old Testament.

00:17:54.279 --> 00:17:56.339
 David is an example of that.

00:17:56.480 --> 00:17:57.579
 Moses is an example of that.

00:17:57.859 --> 00:17:58.519
 The ark.

00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:00.700
 Noah's ark is an example of that.

00:18:00.879 --> 00:18:01.240
 Jesus.

00:18:01.399 --> 00:18:02.819
 The ark is a type of Christ

00:18:02.819 --> 00:18:03.740
 that saves us

00:18:03.740 --> 00:18:04.799
 from God's condemnation.

00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:06.480
 These things run all throughout

00:18:06.480 --> 00:18:07.660
 the Old Testament Scriptures.

00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:08.440
 So,

00:18:08.619 --> 00:18:09.559
 he does a couple of things

00:18:09.559 --> 00:18:10.420
 that are interesting here

00:18:10.420 --> 00:18:11.700
 that point to this.

00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:12.180
 Right?

00:18:12.180 --> 00:18:13.700
 So we know that Moses

00:18:13.700 --> 00:18:14.960
 led God's people

00:18:14.960 --> 00:18:16.640
 out of captivity

00:18:16.640 --> 00:18:19.100
 as God's instrument

00:18:19.100 --> 00:18:20.400
 leads them out of captivity.

00:18:20.759 --> 00:18:21.740
 This great picture

00:18:21.740 --> 00:18:22.900
 of God's people

00:18:22.900 --> 00:18:24.120
 being led out of slavery

00:18:24.120 --> 00:18:24.740
 to sin

00:18:24.740 --> 00:18:25.900
 and into redemption

00:18:25.900 --> 00:18:27.640
 and to living in his kingdom.

00:18:28.060 --> 00:18:28.480
 And so,

00:18:28.700 --> 00:18:30.380
 we see them gathering together.

00:18:30.620 --> 00:18:31.320
 You can see this

00:18:31.320 --> 00:18:32.799
 in Exodus chapter 18,

00:18:32.860 --> 00:18:33.380
 verse 21,

00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:35.620
 in 100s and 50s.

00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:37.200
 And Moses

00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:38.779
 presided over the people

00:18:38.779 --> 00:18:39.259
 in this way.

00:18:39.340 --> 00:18:39.840
 He divided them

00:18:39.840 --> 00:18:40.400
 into thousands,

00:18:40.560 --> 00:18:40.920
 into hundreds,

00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:41.440
 into fifties,

00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:41.940
 into tens.

00:18:41.980 --> 00:18:42.500
 That was the way

00:18:42.500 --> 00:18:43.640
 in which he governed

00:18:43.640 --> 00:18:44.519
 over the people.

00:18:44.860 --> 00:18:47.700
 Jesus does the very same thing.

00:18:47.840 --> 00:18:47.960
 So,

00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:49.000
 Jesus is saying to them,

00:18:49.140 --> 00:18:51.180
 I am the better Moses

00:18:51.180 --> 00:18:52.580
 as he divides them up

00:18:52.580 --> 00:18:54.000
 to distribute food

00:18:54.000 --> 00:18:54.940
 amongst them.

00:18:55.460 --> 00:18:56.039
 He's also,

00:18:56.180 --> 00:18:57.720
 we see David as a type.

00:18:58.700 --> 00:18:59.380
 Ezekiel 34,

00:18:59.460 --> 00:19:00.400
 23 says,

00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:01.980
 And I will set up over them

00:19:01.980 --> 00:19:02.940
 one shepherd,

00:19:03.360 --> 00:19:04.059
 my servant David,

00:19:04.120 --> 00:19:05.100
 and he shall feed them.

00:19:05.360 --> 00:19:06.400
 He shall feed them

00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:08.559
 and be their shepherd.

00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:10.799
 And herein we find,

00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:11.440
 perhaps,

00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:13.539
 this is my very best guess

00:19:13.539 --> 00:19:14.019
 at this,

00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:15.720
 perhaps the significance

00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:17.039
 of verse 39.

00:19:17.579 --> 00:19:18.819
 Why did Mark record

00:19:18.819 --> 00:19:20.099
 that he had them sit down

00:19:20.099 --> 00:19:22.019
 on the green grass?

00:19:22.139 --> 00:19:23.000
 Is that important

00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:23.919
 in any way

00:19:23.919 --> 00:19:24.579
 to the story?

00:19:25.339 --> 00:19:26.639
 I believe it is.

00:19:27.099 --> 00:19:28.000
 I believe that Jesus

00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:29.399
 had them sit down

00:19:29.399 --> 00:19:30.200
 in these groups

00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:31.019
 on the green grass

00:19:31.019 --> 00:19:31.740
 to say to him,

00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:34.899
 I am the good shepherd.

00:19:35.099 --> 00:19:37.779
 I am the better David.

00:19:37.779 --> 00:19:39.299
 I will lead you

00:19:39.299 --> 00:19:41.579
 to the good grass.

00:19:42.139 --> 00:19:43.440
 Maybe coming to your mind

00:19:43.440 --> 00:19:44.279
 is Psalm 23,

00:19:45.019 --> 00:19:45.740
 verse 1-3.

00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:46.680
 The Lord is my shepherd.

00:19:47.359 --> 00:19:48.160
 I shall not want.

00:19:48.220 --> 00:19:49.079
 He makes me lie down

00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:49.859
 in green pastures.

00:19:50.139 --> 00:19:50.879
 He leads me

00:19:50.879 --> 00:19:51.920
 beside still waters.

00:19:52.259 --> 00:19:54.740
 He restores my soul.

00:19:55.160 --> 00:19:55.779
 He leads me

00:19:55.779 --> 00:19:56.740
 in paths of righteousness

00:19:56.740 --> 00:19:58.539
 for his name's sake.

00:19:59.819 --> 00:20:00.980
 I would hope

00:20:00.980 --> 00:20:02.259
 that if we were there,

00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:03.879
 being sat down

00:20:03.879 --> 00:20:04.920
 in green grass,

00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:06.700
 being fed,

00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:08.440
 being put in these groups

00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:09.220
 in this way,

00:20:09.519 --> 00:20:10.539
 and that this man

00:20:10.539 --> 00:20:11.380
 who claims he's

00:20:11.380 --> 00:20:11.960
 the Son of God,

00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:12.980
 that he is the Christ,

00:20:13.019 --> 00:20:13.860
 is teaching the coming

00:20:13.860 --> 00:20:14.320
 of the kingdom,

00:20:14.600 --> 00:20:15.560
 we would remember

00:20:15.560 --> 00:20:17.220
 Psalm 23, 1-3,

00:20:17.500 --> 00:20:18.519
 this inspired text.

00:20:18.600 --> 00:20:19.259
 They would have known

00:20:19.259 --> 00:20:20.340
 these words.

00:20:20.680 --> 00:20:21.220
 And we would go,

00:20:21.580 --> 00:20:22.600
 ah, Jesus.

00:20:23.080 --> 00:20:24.300
 Jesus is the Christ.

00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:25.300
 Look at all the things

00:20:25.300 --> 00:20:25.720
 he's doing.

00:20:25.800 --> 00:20:27.160
 He's fulfilling prophecies.

00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:28.900
 He is the greater Moses.

00:20:29.060 --> 00:20:31.380
 He is the greater David.

00:20:32.320 --> 00:20:33.080
 John 10,

00:20:33.860 --> 00:20:34.840
 verses 11-16.

00:20:34.920 --> 00:20:36.680
 Famous.

00:20:36.720 --> 00:20:37.259
 I hope you're familiar

00:20:37.259 --> 00:20:37.759
 with this.

00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:38.680
 I am the good shepherd.

00:20:39.539 --> 00:20:39.980
 The good shepherd

00:20:39.980 --> 00:20:40.920
 lays down his life

00:20:40.920 --> 00:20:41.660
 for the sheep.

00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:43.279
 He who is a hired hand

00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:43.860
 and not a shepherd

00:20:43.860 --> 00:20:44.920
 who does not own the sheep

00:20:44.920 --> 00:20:45.800
 sees the wolf coming

00:20:45.800 --> 00:20:46.519
 and leaves the sheep

00:20:46.519 --> 00:20:47.120
 and flees.

00:20:47.440 --> 00:20:48.880
 And the wolf snatches them

00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:49.820
 and scatters them.

00:20:50.539 --> 00:20:51.279
 He flees because

00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:51.920
 he is a hired hand

00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:52.759
 and cares nothing

00:20:52.759 --> 00:20:53.440
 for the sheep.

00:20:55.060 --> 00:20:56.220
 In relation to that,

00:20:56.279 --> 00:20:57.259
 in contrast to that,

00:20:57.340 --> 00:20:57.840
 verse 14,

00:20:58.100 --> 00:21:00.200
 I am the good shepherd.

00:21:00.740 --> 00:21:01.920
 I know my own

00:21:01.920 --> 00:21:03.539
 and my own know me.

00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:04.659
 Just as the Father

00:21:04.659 --> 00:21:05.139
 knows me

00:21:05.139 --> 00:21:05.879
 and I know the Father

00:21:05.879 --> 00:21:07.539
 and I lay down my life

00:21:07.539 --> 00:21:08.619
 for the sheep.

00:21:09.019 --> 00:21:09.980
 And then praise God

00:21:09.980 --> 00:21:10.779
 for verse 16.

00:21:11.019 --> 00:21:11.740
 This is us.

00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:12.480
 This includes

00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:13.240
 those of us

00:21:13.240 --> 00:21:15.099
 who are not of Jewish descent.

00:21:15.299 --> 00:21:16.599
 And I have other sheep

00:21:16.599 --> 00:21:18.119
 that are not of this fold.

00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:19.740
 I must bring them also

00:21:19.740 --> 00:21:20.740
 and they will listen

00:21:20.740 --> 00:21:21.379
 to my voice

00:21:21.379 --> 00:21:21.759
 so there will be

00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:22.440
 one flock,

00:21:22.920 --> 00:21:24.079
 one shepherd.

00:21:24.079 --> 00:21:25.619
 Do you see what

00:21:25.619 --> 00:21:26.439
 he's doing for them

00:21:26.439 --> 00:21:27.139
 and he's painting

00:21:27.139 --> 00:21:28.339
 this last picture

00:21:28.339 --> 00:21:30.139
 in the land of Galilee

00:21:30.139 --> 00:21:31.159
 before he moves off

00:21:31.159 --> 00:21:32.000
 to the coast

00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:33.059
 to call them

00:21:33.059 --> 00:21:34.460
 to himself.

00:21:34.619 --> 00:21:35.579
 We see a great

00:21:35.579 --> 00:21:37.179
 gospel proclamation

00:21:37.179 --> 00:21:38.579
 in this miracle.

00:21:40.159 --> 00:21:41.179
 So what for us

00:21:41.179 --> 00:21:41.960
 is the application

00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:43.259
 then of this?

00:21:44.059 --> 00:21:45.439
 It's certainly to believe.

00:21:45.899 --> 00:21:46.619
 To be clear.

00:21:46.699 --> 00:21:47.279
 It's certainly to believe

00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:48.460
 that Jesus is in fact

00:21:48.460 --> 00:21:49.000
 the Christ.

00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:50.000
 To recognize

00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:51.399
 that all of these miracles

00:21:51.399 --> 00:21:52.460
 are led to point us

00:21:52.460 --> 00:21:53.720
 to the validity

00:21:53.720 --> 00:21:55.059
 of his message

00:21:55.059 --> 00:21:55.600
 and we're going to

00:21:55.600 --> 00:21:56.900
 address that later.

00:21:57.039 --> 00:21:58.180
 But speaking specifically

00:21:58.180 --> 00:21:59.039
 of his compassion

00:21:59.039 --> 00:22:01.860
 we ought to emulate Christ

00:22:01.860 --> 00:22:02.799
 and be compassionate.

00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:04.120
 We ought to have

00:22:04.120 --> 00:22:05.559
 the same type

00:22:05.559 --> 00:22:06.880
 of heart in us.

00:22:07.420 --> 00:22:07.620
 In fact,

00:22:07.700 --> 00:22:08.420
 Colossians 3.12

00:22:08.420 --> 00:22:08.940
 Paul says,

00:22:09.079 --> 00:22:09.600
 put on then

00:22:09.600 --> 00:22:11.340
 as God's chosen ones

00:22:11.340 --> 00:22:11.980
 his sheep

00:22:11.980 --> 00:22:13.579
 holy and beloved

00:22:13.579 --> 00:22:15.519
 compassionate hearts.

00:22:15.620 --> 00:22:16.840
 The objects of that compassion

00:22:16.840 --> 00:22:18.680
 are the church

00:22:18.680 --> 00:22:19.640
 and the world.

00:22:19.640 --> 00:22:20.500
 Those who are yet

00:22:20.500 --> 00:22:21.539
 to be part of the church.

00:22:21.539 --> 00:22:22.480
 So we want to go

00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:22.980
 and we want to share

00:22:22.980 --> 00:22:24.180
 the gospel far and wide.

00:22:24.279 --> 00:22:25.159
 We want to be compassionate.

00:22:25.599 --> 00:22:26.339
 We want to remember

00:22:26.339 --> 00:22:27.440
 where we once were

00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:28.420
 the sin that we were

00:22:28.420 --> 00:22:29.099
 delivered from

00:22:29.099 --> 00:22:30.619
 the death that awaited us

00:22:30.619 --> 00:22:31.619
 and have compassion

00:22:31.619 --> 00:22:32.240
 on others

00:22:32.240 --> 00:22:33.079
 who are awaiting

00:22:33.079 --> 00:22:34.460
 the same thing.

00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:34.960
 Do you have

00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:36.059
 eternal mindset

00:22:36.059 --> 00:22:37.000
 when you look

00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:37.720
 at your neighbors

00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:38.440
 and your classmates

00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:39.519
 and your co-workers?

00:22:39.799 --> 00:22:40.480
 Do you look at them

00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:41.480
 and say if they don't

00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:42.059
 have Christ

00:22:42.059 --> 00:22:44.059
 their eternal doom

00:22:44.059 --> 00:22:45.059
 is damnation?

00:22:45.799 --> 00:22:46.759
 It'll be miserable

00:22:46.759 --> 00:22:47.259
 forever

00:22:47.259 --> 00:22:47.859
 and you break

00:22:47.859 --> 00:22:48.700
 your heart break for them.

00:22:48.779 --> 00:22:49.420
 I don't think

00:22:49.420 --> 00:22:50.059
 that we

00:22:50.059 --> 00:22:51.059
 including myself

00:22:51.059 --> 00:22:52.039
 have hearts

00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:52.839
 broken enough

00:22:52.839 --> 00:22:53.619
 for the lost.

00:22:54.639 --> 00:22:55.579
 We don't remember

00:22:55.579 --> 00:22:56.619
 what we were delivered from.

00:22:56.700 --> 00:22:57.279
 We don't actually

00:22:57.279 --> 00:22:58.359
 understand the weight

00:22:58.359 --> 00:22:58.839
 of our sin.

00:22:59.000 --> 00:22:59.659
 We have a hard time

00:22:59.659 --> 00:23:00.559
 wrapping our minds

00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:01.200
 around what eternal

00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:02.139
 separation from God

00:23:02.139 --> 00:23:02.960
 would look like.

00:23:04.059 --> 00:23:05.119
 We don't have

00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:05.980
 compassionate hearts

00:23:05.980 --> 00:23:06.779
 but we should.

00:23:07.159 --> 00:23:07.519
 That should be

00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:08.419
 the response

00:23:08.419 --> 00:23:09.480
 to the compassion

00:23:09.480 --> 00:23:10.859
 of Jesus Christ.

00:23:11.919 --> 00:23:13.419
 Jesus finalized this

00:23:13.419 --> 00:23:14.559
 for us on the cross.

00:23:15.179 --> 00:23:16.619
 He went so much further

00:23:16.619 --> 00:23:17.319
 than a little

00:23:17.319 --> 00:23:17.819
 interruption

00:23:17.819 --> 00:23:18.639
 in his rest.

00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:18.680
 Christ.

00:23:19.340 --> 00:23:20.940
 He died on our behalf.

00:23:21.040 --> 00:23:22.140
 He died a miserable death.

00:23:22.300 --> 00:23:23.000
 The worst death

00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:23.960
 that's ever been created

00:23:23.960 --> 00:23:24.660
 in the world

00:23:24.660 --> 00:23:25.400
 he died.

00:23:25.660 --> 00:23:26.860
 And above and beyond that

00:23:26.860 --> 00:23:28.240
 he bore the wrath

00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:28.640
 of God

00:23:28.640 --> 00:23:29.080
 that was due

00:23:29.080 --> 00:23:29.820
 our sin

00:23:29.820 --> 00:23:30.900
 in himself

00:23:30.900 --> 00:23:32.540
 that we might have life.

00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:33.480
 That we might put on

00:23:33.480 --> 00:23:34.520
 his righteousness.

00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:35.660
 That when God

00:23:35.660 --> 00:23:36.480
 looks at us

00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:37.140
 he sees

00:23:37.140 --> 00:23:38.080
 Christ

00:23:38.080 --> 00:23:38.720
 beloved

00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:40.240
 this should make us

00:23:40.240 --> 00:23:41.240
 compassionate.

00:23:42.180 --> 00:23:42.980
 This should warm

00:23:42.980 --> 00:23:43.720
 our hearts

00:23:43.720 --> 00:23:44.840
 to the purposes

00:23:44.840 --> 00:23:45.920
 of Christ.

00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:47.140
 we should love

00:23:47.140 --> 00:23:48.440
 what Jesus loves

00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:49.140
 because Jesus

00:23:49.140 --> 00:23:49.960
 first loved us.

00:23:50.240 --> 00:23:51.039
 You know what Jesus loves?

00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:52.560
 He loves his church.

00:23:52.880 --> 00:23:54.180
 He loves his sheep.

00:23:54.400 --> 00:23:55.680
 He's gathering them in

00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:56.560
 even now.

00:23:58.000 --> 00:23:59.080
 So compassion.

00:24:01.240 --> 00:24:01.800
 Secondly

00:24:01.800 --> 00:24:03.240
 notice

00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:04.800
 the need

00:24:04.800 --> 00:24:05.960
 for communion.

00:24:07.080 --> 00:24:08.200
 Now I'm not talking

00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:08.740
 in this case

00:24:08.740 --> 00:24:09.740
 of the church ordinance

00:24:09.740 --> 00:24:10.680
 that we more commonly

00:24:10.680 --> 00:24:12.180
 call the Lord's Supper here.

00:24:12.660 --> 00:24:13.279
 I'm not talking about

00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:14.240
 that type of communion.

00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:15.740
 I'm talking about

00:24:15.740 --> 00:24:17.079
 the communion

00:24:17.079 --> 00:24:18.839
 the being with God.

00:24:19.019 --> 00:24:19.859
 The charging

00:24:19.859 --> 00:24:20.420
 that we get

00:24:20.420 --> 00:24:21.220
 when we plug in

00:24:21.220 --> 00:24:22.680
 to the source.

00:24:23.019 --> 00:24:23.640
 This is such

00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:24.819
 a wonderful picture

00:24:24.819 --> 00:24:25.799
 in this text

00:24:25.799 --> 00:24:26.839
 of Christ's

00:24:26.839 --> 00:24:28.240
 co-existent humanity

00:24:28.240 --> 00:24:29.200
 and deity.

00:24:29.779 --> 00:24:31.120
 We see his need

00:24:31.120 --> 00:24:32.359
 to step away

00:24:32.359 --> 00:24:33.259
 from things.

00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:34.660
 We see the human need

00:24:34.660 --> 00:24:35.319
 for it too.

00:24:35.819 --> 00:24:36.420
 Verse 31

00:24:36.420 --> 00:24:37.079
 and then again

00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:38.220
 in verse 45

00:24:38.220 --> 00:24:39.539
 we see that

00:24:39.539 --> 00:24:41.079
 Jesus is teaching

00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:41.980
 the apostles

00:24:41.980 --> 00:24:43.079
 to take

00:24:43.079 --> 00:24:43.919
 times of

00:24:43.919 --> 00:24:44.679
 restorative

00:24:44.679 --> 00:24:45.480
 rest.

00:24:46.079 --> 00:24:46.579
 Verse 31

00:24:46.579 --> 00:24:47.119
 he says

00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:47.740
 come away

00:24:47.740 --> 00:24:48.399
 by yourselves

00:24:48.399 --> 00:24:49.259
 a desolate place

00:24:49.259 --> 00:24:49.819
 and rest a while.

00:24:49.899 --> 00:24:50.339
 It's an imperative.

00:24:50.500 --> 00:24:50.980
 It's a command.

00:24:51.399 --> 00:24:52.500
 You've gone off.

00:24:52.759 --> 00:24:53.740
 You've been doing works.

00:24:53.919 --> 00:24:54.439
 You've been sharing

00:24:54.439 --> 00:24:55.000
 the gospel.

00:24:55.379 --> 00:24:56.139
 Now rest.

00:24:56.599 --> 00:24:57.279
 You need it.

00:24:57.419 --> 00:24:57.960
 You're human

00:24:57.960 --> 00:24:58.759
 and you're frail

00:24:58.759 --> 00:24:59.799
 and you will fall

00:24:59.799 --> 00:25:00.460
 and fail

00:25:00.460 --> 00:25:01.259
 at some point

00:25:01.259 --> 00:25:02.299
 if you don't

00:25:02.299 --> 00:25:02.819
 get

00:25:02.819 --> 00:25:03.939
 restorative

00:25:03.939 --> 00:25:04.839
 rest.

00:25:05.480 --> 00:25:05.919
 And then after

00:25:05.919 --> 00:25:06.419
 this account

00:25:06.419 --> 00:25:07.740
 he goes

00:25:07.740 --> 00:25:08.339
 and he's teaching

00:25:08.339 --> 00:25:09.279
 the apostles

00:25:09.279 --> 00:25:10.039
 get very involved

00:25:10.039 --> 00:25:10.720
 in this process.

00:25:10.879 --> 00:25:11.819
 They're handing out

00:25:11.819 --> 00:25:12.259
 food.

00:25:12.700 --> 00:25:13.019
 It would have

00:25:13.019 --> 00:25:14.460
 taken hours

00:25:14.460 --> 00:25:15.179
 I would imagine

00:25:15.179 --> 00:25:15.919
 to hand out

00:25:15.919 --> 00:25:16.500
 that much food

00:25:16.500 --> 00:25:17.659
 and after that

00:25:17.659 --> 00:25:17.919
 it says

00:25:17.919 --> 00:25:18.599
 immediately

00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:19.859
 he made his

00:25:19.859 --> 00:25:20.240
 disciples

00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:21.519
 get into a boat

00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:22.240
 verse 45

00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:23.779
 and go before him

00:25:23.779 --> 00:25:24.500
 to the other side

00:25:24.500 --> 00:25:24.980
 to Bethsaida

00:25:24.980 --> 00:25:25.700
 while he dismissed

00:25:25.700 --> 00:25:26.460
 the crowd.

00:25:26.859 --> 00:25:27.259
 Now I think

00:25:27.259 --> 00:25:27.859
 that this happened

00:25:27.859 --> 00:25:28.679
 primarily because

00:25:28.679 --> 00:25:29.059
 if you look

00:25:29.059 --> 00:25:29.839
 in the other accounts

00:25:29.839 --> 00:25:31.619
 like John's account

00:25:31.619 --> 00:25:32.639
 it records

00:25:32.639 --> 00:25:33.000
 that they were

00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:33.919
 looking to take him

00:25:33.919 --> 00:25:34.480
 by force

00:25:34.480 --> 00:25:35.659
 to make him king.

00:25:36.159 --> 00:25:36.599
 This group

00:25:36.599 --> 00:25:37.159
 that had traveled

00:25:37.159 --> 00:25:37.799
 out into the wilderness

00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:38.899
 seemed to be

00:25:38.899 --> 00:25:40.519
 rebels against Rome

00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:40.960
 and they wanted

00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:42.379
 to grab Jesus

00:25:42.379 --> 00:25:43.200
 and make him king

00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:44.019
 that he might lead them.

00:25:44.220 --> 00:25:44.940
 He'd done miracles

00:25:44.940 --> 00:25:45.240
 right?

00:25:45.319 --> 00:25:46.139
 This must be the one

00:25:46.139 --> 00:25:46.819
 that's going to lead us

00:25:46.819 --> 00:25:47.920
 in triumph

00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:48.539
 in a war

00:25:48.539 --> 00:25:49.700
 against Rome.

00:25:50.079 --> 00:25:50.680
 And so he sends

00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:51.980
 the apostles away

00:25:51.980 --> 00:25:52.379
 he gets them

00:25:52.379 --> 00:25:53.200
 out of that scene

00:25:53.200 --> 00:25:54.119
 he gets them gone

00:25:54.119 --> 00:25:54.539
 right?

00:25:54.680 --> 00:25:55.599
 He was the hubbub

00:25:55.599 --> 00:25:56.359
 like he was the one

00:25:56.359 --> 00:25:57.379
 attracting all the attention

00:25:57.379 --> 00:25:58.339
 and they were able

00:25:58.339 --> 00:25:59.059
 then to go

00:25:59.059 --> 00:26:00.200
 and to rest

00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:01.759
 so he sends them away.

00:26:02.339 --> 00:26:03.160
 But what does he do

00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:04.019
 when that happens?

00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:05.559
 So they take this time

00:26:05.559 --> 00:26:06.359
 of restorative rest

00:26:06.359 --> 00:26:06.960
 and we must

00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:07.779
 do the same

00:26:07.779 --> 00:26:08.980
 but that's what we can learn

00:26:08.980 --> 00:26:10.019
 as he's teaching them

00:26:10.019 --> 00:26:11.140
 go and rest

00:26:11.140 --> 00:26:12.380
 take some time

00:26:12.380 --> 00:26:13.120
 with your family

00:26:13.120 --> 00:26:14.400
 get some sleep

00:26:14.400 --> 00:26:15.339
 college students

00:26:15.339 --> 00:26:16.220
 it's very important

00:26:16.220 --> 00:26:17.019
 I believe that

00:26:17.019 --> 00:26:17.599
 Christian people

00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:17.940
 ought to be

00:26:17.940 --> 00:26:18.839
 the busiest people

00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:19.640
 because we're working

00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:20.599
 on the kingdom of God

00:26:20.599 --> 00:26:22.279
 but take time

00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:23.180
 for rest

00:26:23.180 --> 00:26:24.819
 eight hours

00:26:24.819 --> 00:26:25.839
 you know that

00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:26.500
 most people need

00:26:26.500 --> 00:26:27.240
 eight hours of sleep

00:26:27.240 --> 00:26:27.779
 to be charged

00:26:27.779 --> 00:26:28.660
 I think I average

00:26:28.660 --> 00:26:29.360
 about six

00:26:29.360 --> 00:26:30.819
 which is not healthy

00:26:30.819 --> 00:26:31.579
 eight hours

00:26:31.579 --> 00:26:32.640
 get some rest

00:26:32.640 --> 00:26:33.259
 restore

00:26:33.259 --> 00:26:34.059
 get away

00:26:34.059 --> 00:26:35.140
 take vacations

00:26:35.140 --> 00:26:36.279
 do those types

00:26:36.279 --> 00:26:36.799
 of things

00:26:36.799 --> 00:26:37.920
 but the greater lesson

00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:38.500
 we learn is what

00:26:38.500 --> 00:26:39.400
 Jesus goes and does

00:26:39.400 --> 00:26:40.840
 he steps away

00:26:40.840 --> 00:26:42.019
 on the mountain

00:26:42.019 --> 00:26:42.960
 to pray

00:26:42.960 --> 00:26:43.940
 so we see

00:26:43.940 --> 00:26:44.660
 restorative rest

00:26:44.660 --> 00:26:45.400
 we also see

00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:47.340
 private prayer

00:26:47.340 --> 00:26:49.259
 now you've got to

00:26:49.259 --> 00:26:49.900
 keep in mind

00:26:49.900 --> 00:26:50.820
 Jesus is constantly

00:26:50.820 --> 00:26:51.580
 setting for us

00:26:51.580 --> 00:26:52.080
 example

00:26:52.080 --> 00:26:53.140
 but it's not that

00:26:53.140 --> 00:26:53.840
 he didn't need it

00:26:53.840 --> 00:26:54.259
 it's not that he

00:26:54.259 --> 00:26:55.120
 didn't need the

00:26:55.120 --> 00:26:55.700
 private prayer

00:26:55.700 --> 00:26:56.580
 and he's just

00:26:56.580 --> 00:26:57.140
 setting an example

00:26:57.140 --> 00:26:57.480
 for us

00:26:57.480 --> 00:26:58.160
 but he needed it

00:26:58.160 --> 00:26:58.420
 as well

00:26:58.420 --> 00:26:58.860
 he needed to

00:26:58.860 --> 00:26:59.340
 abide with the

00:26:59.340 --> 00:26:59.560
 father

00:26:59.560 --> 00:27:00.140
 he was getting

00:27:00.140 --> 00:27:01.019
 every directive

00:27:01.019 --> 00:27:02.320
 from the father

00:27:02.320 --> 00:27:02.940
 he needed to

00:27:02.940 --> 00:27:03.380
 step away

00:27:03.380 --> 00:27:04.100
 he needed to

00:27:04.100 --> 00:27:04.640
 spend time

00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:05.160
 in the scriptures

00:27:05.160 --> 00:27:06.220
 and in prayer

00:27:06.220 --> 00:27:07.039
 with God

00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:08.240
 communing

00:27:08.240 --> 00:27:09.460
 with him

00:27:09.460 --> 00:27:11.019
 John Owen

00:27:11.019 --> 00:27:11.920
 wrote a wonderful

00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:12.480
 book called

00:27:12.480 --> 00:27:13.299
 Communion with God

00:27:13.299 --> 00:27:14.539
 and in it he said

00:27:14.539 --> 00:27:16.140
 the love of God

00:27:16.140 --> 00:27:17.279
 is like himself

00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:18.440
 equal

00:27:18.440 --> 00:27:19.339
 constant

00:27:19.339 --> 00:27:20.600
 not capable

00:27:20.600 --> 00:27:21.519
 of augmentation

00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:22.440
 or diminution

00:27:22.440 --> 00:27:23.740
 our love

00:27:23.740 --> 00:27:24.579
 is like

00:27:24.579 --> 00:27:25.420
 ourselves

00:27:25.420 --> 00:27:26.120
 our love

00:27:26.120 --> 00:27:26.920
 is like ourselves

00:27:26.920 --> 00:27:27.960
 unequal

00:27:27.960 --> 00:27:28.839
 increasing

00:27:28.839 --> 00:27:29.539
 waning

00:27:29.539 --> 00:27:30.420
 growing

00:27:30.420 --> 00:27:31.059
 declining

00:27:31.059 --> 00:27:33.000
 his like the sun

00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:34.299
 always the same

00:27:34.299 --> 00:27:35.039
 in its light

00:27:35.039 --> 00:27:35.980
 though a cloud

00:27:35.980 --> 00:27:36.859
 may sometimes

00:27:36.859 --> 00:27:37.519
 interpose

00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:39.519
 ours as the moon

00:27:39.519 --> 00:27:41.139
 has its enlargements

00:27:41.139 --> 00:27:42.619
 and straightenings

00:27:42.619 --> 00:27:44.299
 if we're meant to love

00:27:44.299 --> 00:27:45.919
 like Christ

00:27:45.919 --> 00:27:46.980
 this is what we're

00:27:46.980 --> 00:27:47.980
 called to do

00:27:47.980 --> 00:27:49.759
 we must spend

00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:50.919
 much time

00:27:50.919 --> 00:27:51.419
 alone

00:27:51.419 --> 00:27:52.259
 with God

00:27:52.259 --> 00:27:53.399
 if we are to be

00:27:53.399 --> 00:27:54.539
 of any value

00:27:54.539 --> 00:27:55.419
 for anyone

00:27:55.419 --> 00:27:56.159
 in this world

00:27:56.159 --> 00:27:57.419
 we must first

00:27:57.419 --> 00:27:58.440
 value God

00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:00.000
 above everything

00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:00.899
 and everyone

00:28:00.899 --> 00:28:01.799
 in this world

00:28:01.799 --> 00:28:02.940
 you know how you come to

00:28:02.940 --> 00:28:04.820
 value him

00:28:04.820 --> 00:28:05.400
 to make him your

00:28:05.400 --> 00:28:06.080
 treasure above all

00:28:06.080 --> 00:28:06.320
 else

00:28:06.320 --> 00:28:07.559
 you know him

00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:09.539
 I promise if you

00:28:09.539 --> 00:28:10.180
 know God

00:28:10.180 --> 00:28:11.100
 not just know things

00:28:11.100 --> 00:28:11.779
 about God

00:28:11.779 --> 00:28:12.720
 list of facts

00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:13.080
 about him

00:28:13.080 --> 00:28:13.960
 but if you know him

00:28:13.960 --> 00:28:15.180
 if you spend time

00:28:15.180 --> 00:28:16.259
 abiding with him

00:28:16.259 --> 00:28:17.420
 if you are in

00:28:17.420 --> 00:28:18.580
 communion with him

00:28:18.580 --> 00:28:19.220
 in this way

00:28:19.220 --> 00:28:20.080
 and you know him

00:28:20.080 --> 00:28:21.220
 you will treasure him

00:28:21.220 --> 00:28:22.019
 above all else

00:28:22.019 --> 00:28:22.900
 here's the greatest

00:28:22.900 --> 00:28:23.480
 thing by very

00:28:23.480 --> 00:28:23.920
 definition

00:28:23.920 --> 00:28:25.080
 if he is God

00:28:25.080 --> 00:28:26.360
 he made all things

00:28:26.360 --> 00:28:26.980
 and therefore he is

00:28:26.980 --> 00:28:28.380
 better than all things

00:28:28.380 --> 00:28:29.360
 and not in a

00:28:29.360 --> 00:28:31.039
 slight way

00:28:31.039 --> 00:28:31.960
 but if we put him

00:28:31.960 --> 00:28:32.640
 on the scale

00:28:32.640 --> 00:28:33.539
 it would tip

00:28:33.539 --> 00:28:34.220
 dramatically

00:28:34.220 --> 00:28:35.039
 right

00:28:35.039 --> 00:28:36.019
 there's no comparison

00:28:36.019 --> 00:28:36.579
 to the thing

00:28:36.579 --> 00:28:37.720
 the things of the world

00:28:37.720 --> 00:28:38.819
 go strangely dim

00:28:38.819 --> 00:28:39.259
 in the light

00:28:39.259 --> 00:28:40.420
 of his glorious face

00:28:40.420 --> 00:28:41.160
 this is the picture

00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:42.279
 that we're getting there

00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:43.740
 we must commune

00:28:43.740 --> 00:28:44.259
 with God

00:28:44.259 --> 00:28:45.059
 to be good

00:28:45.059 --> 00:28:46.019
 for anything

00:28:46.019 --> 00:28:46.819
 in this world

00:28:46.819 --> 00:28:47.880
 Jesus said it like this

00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:48.740
 in John 15 5

00:28:48.740 --> 00:28:49.759
 I am the vine

00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:51.420
 you are the branches

00:28:51.420 --> 00:28:53.279
 whoever abides in me

00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:54.200
 and I in him

00:28:54.200 --> 00:28:55.340
 he it is

00:28:55.340 --> 00:28:56.100
 that bears

00:28:56.100 --> 00:28:57.000
 much fruit

00:28:57.000 --> 00:28:57.579
 now hear this

00:28:57.579 --> 00:28:58.140
 just let this

00:28:58.140 --> 00:28:59.840
 resonate in your brain

00:28:59.839 --> 00:29:01.339
 for apart from me

00:29:01.339 --> 00:29:02.759
 you can do

00:29:02.759 --> 00:29:03.639
 nothing

00:29:03.639 --> 00:29:05.139
 apart from me

00:29:05.139 --> 00:29:06.299
 you can do

00:29:06.299 --> 00:29:07.179
 nothing

00:29:07.179 --> 00:29:08.339
 so if we love our Christ

00:29:08.339 --> 00:29:09.339
 for what he's done for us

00:29:09.339 --> 00:29:10.459
 if we want to serve him

00:29:10.459 --> 00:29:11.259
 if we want to be effective

00:29:11.259 --> 00:29:11.899
 in the kingdom

00:29:11.899 --> 00:29:14.019
 we must abide with him

00:29:14.019 --> 00:29:15.439
 this is the very first step

00:29:15.439 --> 00:29:16.379
 in the process

00:29:16.379 --> 00:29:17.500
 we must

00:29:17.500 --> 00:29:19.039
 and if you find yourself

00:29:19.039 --> 00:29:19.720
 in a place where you

00:29:19.720 --> 00:29:20.599
 struggle with that

00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:21.799
 as I do quite often

00:29:21.799 --> 00:29:23.759
 I find myself constantly

00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:24.579
 day in and day out

00:29:24.579 --> 00:29:25.859
 doing the work of God

00:29:25.859 --> 00:29:27.199
 and everything I'm doing

00:29:27.199 --> 00:29:28.240
 is arranged around that

00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:28.879
 leading a church

00:29:28.880 --> 00:29:29.380
 and studying

00:29:29.380 --> 00:29:30.000
 and doing those things

00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:31.220
 and I find sometimes

00:29:31.220 --> 00:29:32.240
 that imperceptibly

00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:33.580
 I drift off course

00:29:33.580 --> 00:29:35.040
 and suddenly I'm just

00:29:35.040 --> 00:29:35.840
 academic

00:29:35.840 --> 00:29:37.280
 or I'm just

00:29:37.280 --> 00:29:38.060
 a businessman

00:29:38.060 --> 00:29:39.120
 planning and plotting

00:29:39.120 --> 00:29:39.780
 a course

00:29:39.780 --> 00:29:40.460
 right

00:29:40.460 --> 00:29:41.500
 I step away from the fact

00:29:41.500 --> 00:29:42.400
 that I need

00:29:42.400 --> 00:29:43.420
 to soak

00:29:43.420 --> 00:29:44.300
 in who he is

00:29:44.300 --> 00:29:45.060
 right

00:29:45.060 --> 00:29:45.900
 that when I do that

00:29:45.900 --> 00:29:46.940
 I can pour out

00:29:46.940 --> 00:29:47.700
 a sponge

00:29:47.700 --> 00:29:48.400
 I can soak up

00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:49.100
 and be squeezed out

00:29:49.100 --> 00:29:49.620
 and soak up

00:29:49.620 --> 00:29:50.880
 and be squeezed out

00:29:50.880 --> 00:29:51.900
 but I let myself

00:29:51.900 --> 00:29:52.720
 get squeezed out

00:29:52.720 --> 00:29:54.060
 and I don't soak again

00:29:54.060 --> 00:29:54.680
 right

00:29:54.680 --> 00:29:55.600
 I step away

00:29:55.600 --> 00:29:56.200
 from that

00:29:56.200 --> 00:29:57.300
 it's like a compass

00:29:57.300 --> 00:29:58.020
 many of you know

00:29:58.019 --> 00:29:59.099
 the way compasses

00:29:59.099 --> 00:29:59.379
 function

00:29:59.379 --> 00:29:59.980
 if you just turn

00:29:59.980 --> 00:30:00.660
 in a little degree

00:30:00.660 --> 00:30:01.680
 and walk ten feet

00:30:01.680 --> 00:30:02.539
 you're really in the

00:30:02.539 --> 00:30:03.079
 same place

00:30:03.079 --> 00:30:04.639
 it's imperceptible

00:30:04.639 --> 00:30:05.379
 you can't even notice

00:30:05.379 --> 00:30:06.039
 that you're off the course

00:30:06.039 --> 00:30:07.240
 but if you go a mile

00:30:07.240 --> 00:30:07.700
 that way

00:30:07.700 --> 00:30:08.180
 it's suddenly you're

00:30:08.180 --> 00:30:08.859
 getting further

00:30:08.859 --> 00:30:09.579
 and further

00:30:09.579 --> 00:30:10.579
 and further away

00:30:10.579 --> 00:30:11.539
 from where you need

00:30:11.539 --> 00:30:11.859
 to be

00:30:11.859 --> 00:30:12.740
 we must

00:30:12.740 --> 00:30:13.579
 come back

00:30:13.579 --> 00:30:14.680
 to private prayer

00:30:14.680 --> 00:30:15.519
 we must

00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:16.400
 spend time

00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:17.279
 knowing

00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:18.420
 God

00:30:18.420 --> 00:30:20.299
 if you find yourself

00:30:20.299 --> 00:30:20.879
 in that place

00:30:20.879 --> 00:30:21.500
 there's some

00:30:21.500 --> 00:30:22.379
 there's some great

00:30:22.379 --> 00:30:23.019
 rest for us

00:30:23.019 --> 00:30:23.799
 there's some great

00:30:23.799 --> 00:30:24.680
 promises

00:30:24.680 --> 00:30:26.060
 psalm 46

00:30:26.060 --> 00:30:26.680
 verse 10

00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:27.900
 God says

00:30:27.900 --> 00:30:28.500
 be still

00:30:28.500 --> 00:30:29.060
 and know

00:30:29.060 --> 00:30:30.100
 that I

00:30:30.100 --> 00:30:30.960
 am God

00:30:30.960 --> 00:30:32.039
 be still

00:30:32.039 --> 00:30:32.320
 and know

00:30:32.320 --> 00:30:32.980
 that I

00:30:32.980 --> 00:30:33.539
 am God

00:30:33.539 --> 00:30:34.299
 I will be

00:30:34.299 --> 00:30:34.820
 exalted

00:30:34.820 --> 00:30:35.700
 among the nations

00:30:35.700 --> 00:30:36.620
 I will

00:30:36.620 --> 00:30:37.440
 be exalted

00:30:37.440 --> 00:30:38.539
 in the earth

00:30:38.539 --> 00:30:39.580
 this is a great

00:30:39.580 --> 00:30:40.680
 comfort to my soul

00:30:40.680 --> 00:30:42.220
 my great desire

00:30:42.220 --> 00:30:42.560
 is that God

00:30:42.560 --> 00:30:43.060
 be exalted

00:30:43.060 --> 00:30:43.759
 among the nations

00:30:43.759 --> 00:30:44.880
 my great desire

00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:45.140
 is that God

00:30:45.140 --> 00:30:45.580
 be exalted

00:30:45.580 --> 00:30:47.000
 in this entire world

00:30:47.000 --> 00:30:47.720
 and then I go

00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:48.580
 what I gotta do

00:30:48.580 --> 00:30:49.140
 to get that done

00:30:49.140 --> 00:30:51.140
 what is my part

00:30:51.140 --> 00:30:51.620
 to play in that

00:30:51.620 --> 00:30:52.620
 what do I have to do

00:30:52.619 --> 00:30:53.879
 and I can become

00:30:53.879 --> 00:30:55.139
 exhausted because of that

00:30:55.139 --> 00:30:55.759
 and he says to me

00:30:55.759 --> 00:30:56.639
 be still

00:30:56.639 --> 00:30:58.019
 you're not God

00:30:58.019 --> 00:30:58.779
 I am

00:30:58.779 --> 00:31:01.239
 be a tool in my hand

00:31:01.239 --> 00:31:02.919
 I've got it all

00:31:02.919 --> 00:31:03.899
 under control

00:31:03.899 --> 00:31:05.599
 Psalm 127

00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:07.319
 Song of Solomon

00:31:07.319 --> 00:31:08.019
 verse 1 and 2

00:31:08.019 --> 00:31:09.259
 unless the Lord

00:31:09.259 --> 00:31:10.039
 builds the house

00:31:10.039 --> 00:31:11.319
 those who build it

00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:12.159
 labor in vain

00:31:12.159 --> 00:31:13.519
 unless the Lord

00:31:13.519 --> 00:31:14.500
 watches over the city

00:31:14.500 --> 00:31:15.639
 the watchman

00:31:15.639 --> 00:31:16.479
 stays awake

00:31:16.479 --> 00:31:17.319
 in vain

00:31:17.319 --> 00:31:18.819
 it is in vain

00:31:18.819 --> 00:31:19.779
 that you rise up early

00:31:19.779 --> 00:31:20.599
 and go late to rest

00:31:20.599 --> 00:31:21.459
 eating the bread

00:31:21.460 --> 00:31:22.880
 of anxious toil

00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:24.360
 for he gives

00:31:24.360 --> 00:31:25.059
 to his beloved

00:31:25.059 --> 00:31:26.160
 sleep

00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:27.880
 and the teaching

00:31:27.880 --> 00:31:28.460
 here is not

00:31:28.460 --> 00:31:29.559
 sleep in

00:31:29.559 --> 00:31:30.720
 right

00:31:30.720 --> 00:31:31.460
 and go to bed early

00:31:31.460 --> 00:31:32.279
 it's not the teaching

00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:33.120
 it's all he's trying to say

00:31:33.120 --> 00:31:34.319
 get up early

00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:35.940
 there's much value

00:31:35.940 --> 00:31:36.660
 in getting up early

00:31:36.660 --> 00:31:37.819
 but when you do so

00:31:37.819 --> 00:31:38.900
 because you know

00:31:38.900 --> 00:31:39.740
 you've got to do it

00:31:39.740 --> 00:31:40.920
 you know you've got to accomplish

00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:41.660
 you're anxious

00:31:41.660 --> 00:31:42.620
 about the work

00:31:42.620 --> 00:31:43.480
 that's ahead of you

00:31:43.480 --> 00:31:44.100
 he says

00:31:44.100 --> 00:31:45.299
 no sleep

00:31:45.299 --> 00:31:46.620
 sleep and rest

00:31:46.620 --> 00:31:47.420
 the Lord

00:31:47.420 --> 00:31:48.200
 is building a house

00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:48.759
 the Lord

00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:50.019
 is keeping watch

00:31:50.019 --> 00:31:51.220
 over the city

00:31:51.220 --> 00:31:53.600
 so we need these things

00:31:53.600 --> 00:31:55.100
 we need private prayer

00:31:55.100 --> 00:31:57.759
 we need restorative rest

00:31:57.759 --> 00:31:58.980
 and that's the application

00:31:58.980 --> 00:31:59.539
 for us

00:31:59.539 --> 00:32:00.519
 as we labor for the kingdom

00:32:00.519 --> 00:32:01.720
 we must also rest

00:32:01.720 --> 00:32:03.460
 in the goodness of God

00:32:03.460 --> 00:32:05.279
 in the face of Jesus Christ

00:32:05.279 --> 00:32:06.440
 that's how you charge

00:32:06.440 --> 00:32:07.600
 for spiritual work

00:32:07.600 --> 00:32:08.380
 you remember

00:32:08.380 --> 00:32:09.299
 the goodness

00:32:09.299 --> 00:32:10.440
 of the gospel

00:32:10.440 --> 00:32:12.640
 Matthew chapter 11

00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:13.720
 28-30

00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:14.600
 Jesus says

00:32:14.600 --> 00:32:15.160
 come to me

00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:16.500
 all you who labor

00:32:16.500 --> 00:32:17.799
 and are heavy laden

00:32:17.799 --> 00:32:19.180
 and I will give you

00:32:19.180 --> 00:32:19.920
 rest

00:32:19.920 --> 00:32:21.700
 take my yoke upon you

00:32:21.700 --> 00:32:22.420
 and learn from me

00:32:22.420 --> 00:32:23.160
 for I am gentle

00:32:23.160 --> 00:32:24.120
 and lowly in heart

00:32:24.120 --> 00:32:25.480
 and you will find rest

00:32:25.480 --> 00:32:26.220
 for your souls

00:32:26.220 --> 00:32:27.580
 for my yoke is easy

00:32:27.580 --> 00:32:28.720
 and my burden

00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:29.940
 is light

00:32:29.940 --> 00:32:31.340
 how do we do this

00:32:31.340 --> 00:32:32.539
 practically

00:32:32.539 --> 00:32:33.940
 how do we do this

00:32:33.940 --> 00:32:35.480
 spend time

00:32:35.480 --> 00:32:36.080
 in the inerrant

00:32:36.080 --> 00:32:36.420
 sufficient

00:32:36.420 --> 00:32:37.300
 powerful word of God

00:32:37.300 --> 00:32:37.820
 right

00:32:37.820 --> 00:32:39.259
 this has been given to us

00:32:39.259 --> 00:32:40.860
 that we might know

00:32:40.860 --> 00:32:41.740
 God

00:32:41.740 --> 00:32:43.640
 stop neglecting it

00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:44.880
 it is a gift to us

00:32:44.880 --> 00:32:45.560
 it is a grace

00:32:45.560 --> 00:32:46.340
 you have

00:32:46.340 --> 00:32:48.300
 copies upon copies

00:32:48.299 --> 00:32:48.980
 on your shelf

00:32:48.980 --> 00:32:50.220
 I was at a conference

00:32:50.220 --> 00:32:50.779
 this week

00:32:50.779 --> 00:32:52.440
 where a group

00:32:52.440 --> 00:32:54.220
 in the third world country

00:32:54.220 --> 00:32:55.220
 they had a program

00:32:55.220 --> 00:32:55.659
 where when you went

00:32:55.659 --> 00:32:56.079
 to the bookstore

00:32:56.079 --> 00:32:57.399
 you could buy a bible

00:32:57.399 --> 00:32:58.539
 and then take it

00:32:58.539 --> 00:32:59.539
 and go stick it on a pallet

00:32:59.539 --> 00:32:59.919
 and they were going to

00:32:59.919 --> 00:33:00.379
 pack them up

00:33:00.379 --> 00:33:00.740
 and send them

00:33:00.740 --> 00:33:02.019
 because the pastors

00:33:02.019 --> 00:33:02.819
 didn't have bibles

00:33:02.819 --> 00:33:03.740
 in this country

00:33:03.740 --> 00:33:04.460
 right

00:33:04.460 --> 00:33:05.419
 we were worried about

00:33:05.419 --> 00:33:06.339
 the people at this point

00:33:06.339 --> 00:33:07.299
 the members of the church

00:33:07.299 --> 00:33:08.000
 it was the pastors

00:33:08.000 --> 00:33:08.980
 that were having a hard time

00:33:08.980 --> 00:33:10.539
 accessing bibles

00:33:10.539 --> 00:33:11.180
 in this country

00:33:11.180 --> 00:33:12.259
 we have got them

00:33:12.259 --> 00:33:13.319
 in abundance

00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:14.159
 we've got copies

00:33:14.159 --> 00:33:14.879
 upon copies

00:33:14.879 --> 00:33:15.759
 upon copies

00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:17.140
 you can access the internet

00:33:17.140 --> 00:33:18.680
 and get any translation

00:33:18.680 --> 00:33:19.460
 that you want

00:33:19.460 --> 00:33:21.000
 with helpful study notes

00:33:21.000 --> 00:33:21.519
 right

00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:22.759
 stop neglecting it

00:33:22.759 --> 00:33:23.660
 it is a gift

00:33:23.660 --> 00:33:24.599
 to you

00:33:24.599 --> 00:33:25.940
 and pray

00:33:25.940 --> 00:33:26.859
 respond

00:33:26.859 --> 00:33:27.799
 to what God is saying

00:33:27.799 --> 00:33:28.900
 as he speaks to you

00:33:28.900 --> 00:33:30.440
 speak back to him

00:33:30.440 --> 00:33:31.700
 God is available

00:33:31.700 --> 00:33:32.740
 and wants

00:33:32.740 --> 00:33:33.859
 a relationship with you

00:33:33.859 --> 00:33:34.599
 draw near to him

00:33:34.599 --> 00:33:35.279
 and he will draw

00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:36.359
 near to you

00:33:36.359 --> 00:33:38.500
 in A.T. Pearson's biography

00:33:38.500 --> 00:33:39.859
 of George Mueller

00:33:39.859 --> 00:33:40.900
 called George Mueller of Bristol

00:33:40.900 --> 00:33:42.000
 which I would really commend to you

00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:42.920
 it's a wonderful read

00:33:42.920 --> 00:33:44.420
 he wrote

00:33:44.420 --> 00:33:45.700
 the most intimate knowledge of God

00:33:45.700 --> 00:33:46.340
 it's possible

00:33:46.340 --> 00:33:47.620
 on one condition

00:33:47.620 --> 00:33:49.360
 that we search his holy scriptures

00:33:49.360 --> 00:33:50.039
 prayerfully

00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:51.259
 and habitually

00:33:51.259 --> 00:33:52.120
 and translate

00:33:52.120 --> 00:33:53.220
 what we there find

00:33:53.220 --> 00:33:55.180
 into obedience

00:33:55.180 --> 00:33:57.519
 there are promises

00:33:57.519 --> 00:33:59.200
 a wonderful promise

00:33:59.200 --> 00:33:59.720
 that comes

00:33:59.720 --> 00:34:00.860
 if we will devote ourselves

00:34:00.860 --> 00:34:01.680
 to this

00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:02.680
 the study of the scripture

00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:03.799
 prayerfully

00:34:03.799 --> 00:34:04.759
 habitually

00:34:04.759 --> 00:34:06.400
 and be obedient

00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:07.019
 in this

00:34:07.019 --> 00:34:07.580
 there's a promise

00:34:07.580 --> 00:34:08.679
 that's found in both testaments

00:34:08.679 --> 00:34:09.860
 Psalm 1-3

00:34:09.860 --> 00:34:11.139
 after he speaks of

00:34:11.139 --> 00:34:12.460
 the man who delights

00:34:12.460 --> 00:34:13.199
 in the law of the Lord

00:34:13.199 --> 00:34:13.460
 it says

00:34:13.460 --> 00:34:14.920
 in all that he does

00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:16.280
 he prospers

00:34:16.280 --> 00:34:17.960
 in James 1-25

00:34:17.960 --> 00:34:18.420
 it says

00:34:18.420 --> 00:34:19.840
 but the one who looks

00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:20.740
 into the perfect law

00:34:20.740 --> 00:34:21.539
 the law of liberty

00:34:21.539 --> 00:34:22.880
 and perseveres

00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:23.599
 is obedient

00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:24.460
 to the end

00:34:24.460 --> 00:34:25.820
 being no hearer

00:34:25.820 --> 00:34:26.579
 who forgets

00:34:26.579 --> 00:34:27.599
 but a doer

00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:28.320
 who acts

00:34:28.320 --> 00:34:29.840
 he will be blessed

00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:31.340
 in his doing

00:34:31.340 --> 00:34:33.300
 do you want the work

00:34:33.300 --> 00:34:33.980
 that you do

00:34:33.980 --> 00:34:35.200
 for the kingdom of God

00:34:35.200 --> 00:34:36.059
 to be blessed

00:34:36.059 --> 00:34:37.079
 to be fruitful

00:34:37.079 --> 00:34:37.960
 to be beneficial

00:34:37.960 --> 00:34:39.000
 if you love Jesus

00:34:39.000 --> 00:34:39.780
 you'll want that

00:34:39.780 --> 00:34:41.340
 if you love Jesus rightly

00:34:41.340 --> 00:34:42.300
 you will want this

00:34:42.300 --> 00:34:43.480
 to be the case

00:34:43.480 --> 00:34:44.579
 this is what we must do

00:34:44.579 --> 00:34:46.760
 this is what we must do

00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:48.139
 and it is a joy

00:34:48.139 --> 00:34:49.539
 to do it

00:34:49.539 --> 00:34:51.440
 so we see the compassion

00:34:51.440 --> 00:34:52.019
 of Christ

00:34:52.019 --> 00:34:52.519
 we see

00:34:52.519 --> 00:34:54.079
 our great need

00:34:54.079 --> 00:34:54.980
 for communion

00:34:54.980 --> 00:34:56.240
 with God

00:34:56.240 --> 00:34:58.119
 but we also see

00:34:58.119 --> 00:34:59.579
 condemnation

00:34:59.579 --> 00:35:01.199
 thirdly

00:35:01.199 --> 00:35:02.300
 we also see

00:35:02.300 --> 00:35:03.519
 condemnation

00:35:03.519 --> 00:35:05.300
 there's this

00:35:05.300 --> 00:35:07.079
 massive group of people

00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:08.019
 and we are seeing this

00:35:08.019 --> 00:35:09.619
 time and time

00:35:09.619 --> 00:35:10.460
 again

00:35:10.460 --> 00:35:11.519
 in the gospel of Mark

00:35:11.519 --> 00:35:12.940
 this great throng

00:35:12.940 --> 00:35:14.199
 that surrounds Jesus

00:35:14.199 --> 00:35:15.340
 and they're coming

00:35:15.340 --> 00:35:15.880
 to him

00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:16.880
 for what Jesus

00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:17.980
 can do for them

00:35:17.980 --> 00:35:18.800
 in this world

00:35:18.800 --> 00:35:20.380
 they want healing

00:35:20.380 --> 00:35:21.539
 they want to show

00:35:21.539 --> 00:35:22.139
 they want to see

00:35:22.139 --> 00:35:23.420
 some new miracle

00:35:23.420 --> 00:35:24.639
 some display

00:35:24.639 --> 00:35:25.420
 of power

00:35:25.420 --> 00:35:26.780
 we would be the same way

00:35:26.780 --> 00:35:28.159
 we hear that some guys

00:35:28.159 --> 00:35:28.840
 in Dahlonega

00:35:28.840 --> 00:35:29.960
 healing sick people

00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:31.000
 like people who can't

00:35:31.000 --> 00:35:31.759
 walk or walking

00:35:31.759 --> 00:35:32.900
 we'd want to go see

00:35:32.900 --> 00:35:34.099
 that kind of thing

00:35:34.099 --> 00:35:35.179
 and they never

00:35:35.179 --> 00:35:36.699
 hear the message

00:35:36.699 --> 00:35:37.759
 they never hear

00:35:37.759 --> 00:35:39.179
 what he's actually

00:35:39.179 --> 00:35:40.599
 trying to say

00:35:40.599 --> 00:35:41.400
 and we know this

00:35:41.400 --> 00:35:42.400
 because after Jesus

00:35:42.400 --> 00:35:43.619
 is crucified

00:35:43.619 --> 00:35:44.880
 and resurrected

00:35:44.880 --> 00:35:46.360
 we see a very small

00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:48.019
 number of disciples

00:35:48.019 --> 00:35:48.880
 still gathered

00:35:48.880 --> 00:35:50.699
 150 in the upper room

00:35:50.699 --> 00:35:51.659
 I'm sure that there

00:35:51.659 --> 00:35:52.059
 were more

00:35:52.059 --> 00:35:52.599
 there were probably

00:35:52.599 --> 00:35:53.920
 some in the Gentile

00:35:53.920 --> 00:35:54.279
 region

00:35:54.279 --> 00:35:55.119
 but we don't see

00:35:55.119 --> 00:35:56.460
 much record of this

00:35:56.460 --> 00:35:58.019
 where did they go

00:35:58.019 --> 00:35:58.759
 you go from

00:35:58.759 --> 00:36:00.759
 20,000 to 150

00:36:00.759 --> 00:36:01.940
 it's a fraction

00:36:01.940 --> 00:36:02.799
 of that

00:36:02.799 --> 00:36:03.980
 were these disciples

00:36:03.980 --> 00:36:05.079
 were these true

00:36:05.079 --> 00:36:06.279
 followers of Jesus Christ

00:36:06.279 --> 00:36:06.940
 no

00:36:06.940 --> 00:36:09.139
 they were coming to him

00:36:09.139 --> 00:36:10.179
 for what they could gain

00:36:10.179 --> 00:36:10.739
 they wanted

00:36:10.739 --> 00:36:11.779
 the promises

00:36:11.779 --> 00:36:12.759
 the benefits

00:36:12.759 --> 00:36:14.079
 without the obedience

00:36:14.079 --> 00:36:15.000
 of it

00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:17.179
 this is a dangerous thing

00:36:17.179 --> 00:36:18.319
 and this is what speaks

00:36:18.319 --> 00:36:18.919
 to our church

00:36:18.919 --> 00:36:19.739
 in a great way

00:36:19.739 --> 00:36:20.599
 do you find yourself

00:36:20.599 --> 00:36:21.299
 in that position

00:36:21.299 --> 00:36:23.159
 you come for the benefit

00:36:23.159 --> 00:36:24.299
 what you think Christ

00:36:24.299 --> 00:36:24.799
 can accomplish

00:36:24.799 --> 00:36:25.559
 on your behalf

00:36:25.559 --> 00:36:26.539
 but you're not willing

00:36:26.539 --> 00:36:27.199
 to be obedient

00:36:27.199 --> 00:36:27.799
 you're not willing

00:36:27.799 --> 00:36:28.239
 to see

00:36:28.239 --> 00:36:29.399
 that the kingdom of God

00:36:29.399 --> 00:36:30.039
 is not

00:36:30.039 --> 00:36:31.379
 not on a scale

00:36:31.379 --> 00:36:32.319
 but it's a difference

00:36:32.319 --> 00:36:33.779
 you become a new person

00:36:33.779 --> 00:36:34.559
 right

00:36:34.559 --> 00:36:35.879
 you no longer live

00:36:35.879 --> 00:36:36.559
 in the realm

00:36:36.559 --> 00:36:37.339
 of this world

00:36:37.339 --> 00:36:38.379
 serving the father

00:36:38.379 --> 00:36:38.799
 of that

00:36:38.799 --> 00:36:39.359
 the devil

00:36:39.359 --> 00:36:39.980
 of lies

00:36:39.980 --> 00:36:41.099
 you now serve

00:36:41.099 --> 00:36:42.000
 Jesus Christ

00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:42.699
 and everything

00:36:42.699 --> 00:36:43.300
 in your life

00:36:43.300 --> 00:36:44.980
 bows to who he is

00:36:44.980 --> 00:36:47.360
 I fear that that's

00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:47.860
 the case

00:36:47.860 --> 00:36:49.059
 in many

00:36:49.059 --> 00:36:49.380
 many

00:36:49.380 --> 00:36:50.179
 many churches

00:36:50.179 --> 00:36:50.920
 and possibly

00:36:50.920 --> 00:36:52.659
 in ours

00:36:52.659 --> 00:36:54.240
 look

00:36:54.240 --> 00:36:55.139
 further down

00:36:55.139 --> 00:36:55.579
 we see this

00:36:55.579 --> 00:36:56.519
 this massive group

00:36:56.519 --> 00:36:56.960
 of people

00:36:56.960 --> 00:36:57.659
 we know that

00:36:57.659 --> 00:36:58.159
 not all of them

00:36:58.159 --> 00:36:58.719
 are true disciples

00:36:58.719 --> 00:36:59.119
 of Christ

00:36:59.119 --> 00:37:00.300
 but look even

00:37:00.300 --> 00:37:01.500
 at the apostles

00:37:01.500 --> 00:37:02.579
 down in

00:37:02.579 --> 00:37:05.119
 verse 52

00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:07.639
 verse 51

00:37:07.639 --> 00:37:09.859
 and they were

00:37:09.859 --> 00:37:10.739
 utterly astounded

00:37:10.739 --> 00:37:11.920
 they were

00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:13.259
 utterly astounded

00:37:13.259 --> 00:37:13.639
 at what had

00:37:13.639 --> 00:37:13.859
 happened

00:37:13.859 --> 00:37:14.259
 he had walked

00:37:14.259 --> 00:37:14.699
 on water

00:37:14.699 --> 00:37:15.379
 he had gotten

00:37:15.379 --> 00:37:15.920
 in the boat

00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:16.679
 they had already

00:37:16.679 --> 00:37:18.139
 seen so many

00:37:18.139 --> 00:37:18.699
 miracles

00:37:18.699 --> 00:37:19.019
 they were

00:37:19.019 --> 00:37:19.859
 utterly astounded

00:37:19.859 --> 00:37:19.879
!

00:37:19.880 --> 00:37:21.039
 for they did

00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:22.300
 not understand

00:37:22.300 --> 00:37:23.640
 about the

00:37:23.640 --> 00:37:24.180
 loaves

00:37:24.180 --> 00:37:24.980
 but their

00:37:24.980 --> 00:37:25.400
 hearts

00:37:25.400 --> 00:37:26.220
 were hardened

00:37:26.220 --> 00:37:26.960
 and that phrase

00:37:26.960 --> 00:37:27.460
 they did not

00:37:27.460 --> 00:37:28.000
 understand about

00:37:28.000 --> 00:37:28.460
 the loaves

00:37:28.460 --> 00:37:29.000
 really

00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:30.460
 vexed my

00:37:30.460 --> 00:37:30.820
 mind

00:37:30.820 --> 00:37:31.260
 these last

00:37:31.260 --> 00:37:31.640
 couple of

00:37:31.640 --> 00:37:31.900
 weeks

00:37:31.900 --> 00:37:33.539
 what?

00:37:34.000 --> 00:37:34.700
 I believe

00:37:34.700 --> 00:37:35.260
 that Mark

00:37:35.260 --> 00:37:36.059
 was inspired

00:37:36.059 --> 00:37:36.559
 by the Holy

00:37:36.559 --> 00:37:36.820
 Spirit

00:37:36.820 --> 00:37:37.240
 to write

00:37:37.240 --> 00:37:37.820
 these words

00:37:37.820 --> 00:37:38.700
 in this

00:37:38.700 --> 00:37:39.320
 way

00:37:39.320 --> 00:37:40.099
 the original

00:37:40.099 --> 00:37:40.460
 text

00:37:40.460 --> 00:37:41.099
 means that

00:37:41.099 --> 00:37:41.460
 I looked

00:37:41.460 --> 00:37:41.720
 it up

00:37:41.720 --> 00:37:42.099
 that's

00:37:42.099 --> 00:37:42.260
 what it

00:37:42.260 --> 00:37:42.519
 means

00:37:42.519 --> 00:37:43.260
 they did

00:37:43.260 --> 00:37:43.460
 not

00:37:43.460 --> 00:37:44.059
 understand

00:37:44.059 --> 00:37:45.039
 about

00:37:45.039 --> 00:37:46.000
 the loaves

00:37:46.000 --> 00:37:46.619
 so here's

00:37:46.619 --> 00:37:47.500
 this interjection

00:37:47.500 --> 00:37:47.719
 for him

00:37:47.719 --> 00:37:48.000
 to help

00:37:48.000 --> 00:37:48.820
 us understand

00:37:48.820 --> 00:37:49.699
 what was

00:37:49.699 --> 00:37:50.440
 going on

00:37:50.440 --> 00:37:51.239
 why did

00:37:51.239 --> 00:37:51.639
 they not

00:37:51.639 --> 00:37:52.300
 understand

00:37:52.300 --> 00:37:52.619
 and I will

00:37:52.619 --> 00:37:52.920
 tell you

00:37:52.920 --> 00:37:53.219
 that the

00:37:53.219 --> 00:37:53.639
 question

00:37:53.639 --> 00:37:54.380
 in verse

00:37:54.380 --> 00:37:54.940
 51

00:37:54.940 --> 00:37:56.280
 of

00:37:56.280 --> 00:37:58.260
 chapter 4

00:37:58.260 --> 00:37:59.420
 they said

00:37:59.420 --> 00:37:59.900
 after he

00:37:59.900 --> 00:38:00.440
 calmed the

00:38:00.440 --> 00:38:00.719
 storm

00:38:00.719 --> 00:38:00.940
 on the

00:38:00.940 --> 00:38:01.139
 sea of

00:38:01.139 --> 00:38:01.400
 Galilee

00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:02.260
 who then

00:38:02.260 --> 00:38:02.719
 is this

00:38:02.719 --> 00:38:03.159
 that even

00:38:03.159 --> 00:38:03.780
 the wind

00:38:03.780 --> 00:38:04.219
 and the

00:38:04.219 --> 00:38:04.639
 sea

00:38:04.639 --> 00:38:05.239
 obey him

00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:05.519
 they were

00:38:05.519 --> 00:38:05.820
 still

00:38:05.820 --> 00:38:06.480
 questioning

00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:06.940
 who

00:38:06.940 --> 00:38:07.579
 Jesus

00:38:07.579 --> 00:38:08.480
 was

00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:09.300
 they've

00:38:09.300 --> 00:38:09.440
 already

00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:09.880
 been sent

00:38:09.880 --> 00:38:10.099
 down

00:38:10.099 --> 00:38:10.360
 on a

00:38:10.360 --> 00:38:10.559
 mission

00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:10.880
 trip

00:38:10.880 --> 00:38:11.900
 and they

00:38:11.900 --> 00:38:12.380
 still don't

00:38:12.380 --> 00:38:12.699
 have it

00:38:12.699 --> 00:38:13.119
 clear in

00:38:13.119 --> 00:38:13.659
 their minds

00:38:13.659 --> 00:38:14.139
 who

00:38:14.139 --> 00:38:14.679
 Jesus

00:38:14.679 --> 00:38:15.119
 is

00:38:15.119 --> 00:38:15.840
 Jesus

00:38:15.840 --> 00:38:16.760
 is

00:38:16.760 --> 00:38:17.059
 the

00:38:17.059 --> 00:38:17.360
 Christ

00:38:17.360 --> 00:38:17.620
 and they

00:38:17.620 --> 00:38:17.980
 didn't

00:38:17.980 --> 00:38:18.559
 quite

00:38:18.559 --> 00:38:19.039
 get it

00:38:19.039 --> 00:38:19.860
 at this

00:38:19.860 --> 00:38:20.260
 point

00:38:20.260 --> 00:38:21.640
 so I

00:38:21.640 --> 00:38:21.820
 want you

00:38:21.820 --> 00:38:22.039
 to go

00:38:22.039 --> 00:38:22.280
 with me

00:38:22.280 --> 00:38:22.420
 we're

00:38:22.420 --> 00:38:22.539
 going to

00:38:22.539 --> 00:38:22.780
 do a

00:38:22.780 --> 00:38:22.960
 little

00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:24.220
 work

00:38:24.220 --> 00:38:24.800
 in John

00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:25.400
 chapter 6

00:38:25.400 --> 00:38:26.300
 starting

00:38:26.300 --> 00:38:26.480
 in verse

00:38:26.480 --> 00:38:26.840
 22

00:38:26.840 --> 00:38:27.200
 I want you

00:38:27.200 --> 00:38:27.360
 to turn

00:38:27.360 --> 00:38:27.559
 with me

00:38:27.559 --> 00:38:27.860
 there

00:38:27.860 --> 00:38:33.579
 John

00:38:33.579 --> 00:38:33.980
 chapter 6

00:38:33.980 --> 00:38:34.440
 verse 22

00:38:34.440 --> 00:38:35.840
 this is

00:38:35.840 --> 00:38:36.600
 John's

00:38:36.600 --> 00:38:36.920
 account

00:38:36.920 --> 00:38:37.820
 what followed

00:38:37.820 --> 00:38:38.559
 right after

00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:38.920
 the same

00:38:38.920 --> 00:38:39.200
 story

00:38:39.200 --> 00:38:39.400
 right

00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:39.760
 so we're

00:38:39.760 --> 00:38:40.059
 looking

00:38:40.059 --> 00:38:40.260
 if you

00:38:40.260 --> 00:38:40.440
 look at

00:38:40.440 --> 00:38:40.960
 chapter 6

00:38:40.960 --> 00:38:42.039
 Jesus

00:38:42.039 --> 00:38:42.220
 beats

00:38:42.220 --> 00:38:42.780
 5,000

00:38:42.780 --> 00:38:43.380
 Jesus

00:38:43.380 --> 00:38:43.880
 walks on

00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:44.200
 water

00:38:44.200 --> 00:38:44.740
 and the

00:38:44.740 --> 00:38:44.960
 beginning

00:38:44.960 --> 00:38:45.220
 of verse

00:38:45.220 --> 00:38:45.680
 22

00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:46.819
 here's

00:38:46.819 --> 00:38:47.019
 kind of

00:38:47.019 --> 00:38:47.460
 the story

00:38:47.460 --> 00:38:48.019
 following

00:38:48.019 --> 00:38:48.379
 this

00:38:48.379 --> 00:38:48.619
 okay

00:38:48.619 --> 00:38:48.940
 so verse

00:38:48.940 --> 00:38:49.239
 22

00:38:49.239 --> 00:38:51.000
 on the

00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:51.299
 next day

00:38:51.299 --> 00:38:51.779
 the crowd

00:38:51.779 --> 00:38:52.339
 that remained

00:38:52.339 --> 00:38:52.599
 on the

00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:52.940
 other side

00:38:52.940 --> 00:38:53.339
 of the sea

00:38:53.339 --> 00:38:54.000
 saw that

00:38:54.000 --> 00:38:54.239
 there had

00:38:54.239 --> 00:38:54.399
 been

00:38:54.399 --> 00:38:55.819
 only one

00:38:55.819 --> 00:38:56.099
 boat

00:38:56.099 --> 00:38:56.419
 there

00:38:56.419 --> 00:38:57.500
 and that

00:38:57.500 --> 00:38:57.699
 Jesus

00:38:57.699 --> 00:38:58.019
 had not

00:38:58.019 --> 00:38:58.219
 entered

00:38:58.219 --> 00:38:58.579
 the boat

00:38:58.579 --> 00:38:59.119
 with his

00:38:59.119 --> 00:38:59.519
 disciples

00:38:59.519 --> 00:39:00.239
 but that

00:39:00.239 --> 00:39:00.679
 his disciples

00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:01.000
 had gone

00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:01.199
 away

00:39:01.199 --> 00:39:01.579
 alone

00:39:01.579 --> 00:39:02.599
 other boats

00:39:02.599 --> 00:39:03.119
 from Niberius

00:39:03.119 --> 00:39:03.639
 came near

00:39:03.639 --> 00:39:04.019
 the place

00:39:04.019 --> 00:39:04.239
 where they

00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:05.319
 had eaten

00:39:05.319 --> 00:39:05.699
 the bread

00:39:05.699 --> 00:39:06.059
 after the

00:39:06.059 --> 00:39:06.259
 Lord had

00:39:06.259 --> 00:39:06.399
 given

00:39:06.399 --> 00:39:06.779
 thanks

00:39:06.779 --> 00:39:07.339
 so when

00:39:07.339 --> 00:39:07.659
 the crowd

00:39:07.659 --> 00:39:08.099
 saw that

00:39:08.099 --> 00:39:08.259
 Jesus

00:39:08.259 --> 00:39:08.500
 was not

00:39:08.500 --> 00:39:08.679
 there

00:39:08.679 --> 00:39:08.879
 nor

00:39:08.879 --> 00:39:09.039
 his

00:39:09.039 --> 00:39:09.419
 disciples

00:39:09.419 --> 00:39:09.919
 they

00:39:09.919 --> 00:39:10.460
 themselves

00:39:10.460 --> 00:39:10.779
 got into

00:39:10.779 --> 00:39:11.139
 the boats

00:39:11.139 --> 00:39:11.659
 and went

00:39:11.659 --> 00:39:12.359
 to Capernaum

00:39:12.360 --> 00:39:12.660
 seeking

00:39:12.660 --> 00:39:12.940
 Jesus

00:39:12.940 --> 00:39:13.200
 so

00:39:13.200 --> 00:39:14.300
 there was

00:39:14.300 --> 00:39:14.780
 only one

00:39:14.780 --> 00:39:15.059
 boat

00:39:15.059 --> 00:39:15.360
 and they

00:39:15.360 --> 00:39:15.480
 knew

00:39:15.480 --> 00:39:15.660
 Jesus

00:39:15.660 --> 00:39:15.860
 didn't

00:39:15.860 --> 00:39:16.180
 get in

00:39:16.180 --> 00:39:16.300
 it

00:39:16.300 --> 00:39:16.559
 he

00:39:16.559 --> 00:39:17.300
 dismissed

00:39:17.300 --> 00:39:17.640
 the

00:39:17.640 --> 00:39:18.019
 apostles

00:39:18.019 --> 00:39:18.400
 while he

00:39:18.400 --> 00:39:18.539
 was

00:39:18.539 --> 00:39:18.900
 dismissing

00:39:18.900 --> 00:39:19.200
 the crowd

00:39:19.200 --> 00:39:19.539
 they got

00:39:19.539 --> 00:39:19.640
 in

00:39:19.640 --> 00:39:19.920
 they took

00:39:19.920 --> 00:39:20.240
 off

00:39:20.240 --> 00:39:20.820
 they knew

00:39:20.820 --> 00:39:21.039
 he didn't

00:39:21.039 --> 00:39:21.260
 get in

00:39:21.260 --> 00:39:21.660
 that boat

00:39:21.660 --> 00:39:22.599
 but then

00:39:22.599 --> 00:39:22.860
 where did

00:39:22.860 --> 00:39:23.180
 he go

00:39:23.180 --> 00:39:24.099
 so some

00:39:24.099 --> 00:39:24.500
 other boats

00:39:24.500 --> 00:39:24.960
 come by

00:39:24.960 --> 00:39:25.200
 and they

00:39:25.200 --> 00:39:25.519
 get in

00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:25.740
 and they

00:39:25.740 --> 00:39:26.220
 follow him

00:39:26.220 --> 00:39:26.800
 over to

00:39:26.800 --> 00:39:27.099
 Capernaum

00:39:27.099 --> 00:39:27.420
 to look

00:39:27.420 --> 00:39:28.200
 for him

00:39:28.200 --> 00:39:29.000
 verse 25

00:39:29.000 --> 00:39:30.000
 when they

00:39:30.000 --> 00:39:30.420
 found him

00:39:30.420 --> 00:39:30.599
 on the

00:39:30.599 --> 00:39:30.900
 other side

00:39:30.900 --> 00:39:31.059
 of the

00:39:31.059 --> 00:39:31.200
 sea

00:39:31.200 --> 00:39:31.640
 they said

00:39:31.640 --> 00:39:32.059
 to him

00:39:32.059 --> 00:39:33.140
 rabbi

00:39:33.140 --> 00:39:33.720
 when did

00:39:33.720 --> 00:39:34.059
 you come

00:39:34.059 --> 00:39:34.480
 here

00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:35.420
 Jesus

00:39:35.420 --> 00:39:35.800
 answered

00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:36.079
 them

00:39:36.079 --> 00:39:36.380
 truly

00:39:36.380 --> 00:39:36.579
 truly

00:39:36.579 --> 00:39:36.900
 I say

00:39:36.900 --> 00:39:37.640
 to you

00:39:37.640 --> 00:39:38.420
 you are

00:39:38.420 --> 00:39:38.740
 seeking

00:39:38.740 --> 00:39:39.240
 me

00:39:39.240 --> 00:39:39.880
 here we

00:39:39.880 --> 00:39:40.099
 go

00:39:40.099 --> 00:39:40.760
 not

00:39:40.760 --> 00:39:42.019
 because

00:39:42.019 --> 00:39:42.740
 you saw

00:39:42.740 --> 00:39:43.240
 signs

00:39:43.240 --> 00:39:43.660
 but because

00:39:43.660 --> 00:39:44.140
 you ate

00:39:44.140 --> 00:39:44.820
 your fill

00:39:44.820 --> 00:39:45.320
 of the

00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:45.800
 loaves

00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:47.500
 do not

00:39:47.500 --> 00:39:47.780
 labor

00:39:47.780 --> 00:39:48.099
 for the

00:39:48.099 --> 00:39:48.360
 food

00:39:48.360 --> 00:39:48.539
 that

00:39:48.539 --> 00:39:48.960
 perishes

00:50:32.260 --> 00:50:32.579
 great

00:50:32.579 --> 00:50:33.440
 culmination

00:50:33.440 --> 00:50:34.000
 the high

00:50:34.000 --> 00:50:34.380
 point

00:50:34.380 --> 00:50:35.019
 of the

00:50:35.019 --> 00:50:35.400
 story

00:50:35.400 --> 00:50:36.320
 believe

00:50:36.320 --> 00:50:36.800
 that

00:50:36.800 --> 00:50:37.120
 Jesus

00:50:37.120 --> 00:50:37.900
 is

00:50:37.900 --> 00:50:38.019
 the

00:50:38.019 --> 00:50:38.440
 Christ

00:50:38.440 --> 00:50:38.980
 let's

00:50:38.980 --> 00:50:39.120
 pray

00:50:39.120 --> 00:50:39.360
 together
