WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.980 I'm not real nervous, but my socks have an L and an R on them I had to wear this morning. 00:00:05.520 --> 00:00:08.019 So I know which foot to put them on. 00:00:08.120 --> 00:00:11.200 They actually do have an L and an R on them. 00:00:11.660 --> 00:00:21.339 I'd like to take this opportunity to thank every one of you who prayed for me during my time of surgery and my healing. 00:00:21.339 --> 00:00:25.839 It went as well as it could have been. 00:00:26.400 --> 00:00:28.160 My pain was minimal. 00:00:29.019 --> 00:00:31.879 My healing has been quick. 00:00:32.619 --> 00:00:34.939 And I appreciate the prayers. 00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:38.399 I appreciate the meals that you provided for Ruth and I. 00:00:38.899 --> 00:00:41.159 It was a great, great help. 00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:50.420 I feel loved by this family that sits here together, that worships together, that loves one another. 00:00:51.620 --> 00:00:52.500 And I thank you. 00:00:55.140 --> 00:00:56.179 Let's pray. 00:00:56.179 --> 00:01:00.100 Father, my mind runs every which way. 00:01:02.100 --> 00:01:05.739 Thinking of what I'll say, what you've given me to say. 00:01:05.739 --> 00:01:08.239 I pray for your peace. 00:01:09.459 --> 00:01:10.899 I pray for clarity. 00:01:13.599 --> 00:01:19.719 I pray for concentration that I'm not running every which way. 00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:31.259 I pray, Father, that you would teach us today about yourself, about what you've given us, who you are. 00:01:31.260 --> 00:01:33.600 I thank you in Christ's name. 00:01:34.320 --> 00:01:34.640 Amen. 00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:34.780 Amen. 00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:37.719 We are in Advent. 00:01:39.340 --> 00:01:49.140 Sometimes that causes anxiousness because of the gift giving of this season. 00:01:49.140 --> 00:01:53.819 Instead of focusing on what and who Christ is. 00:01:54.620 --> 00:01:57.840 There's only 24 days left. 00:01:58.420 --> 00:01:59.239 Can you imagine that? 00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:01.680 It does seem short. 00:02:02.620 --> 00:02:04.000 This happens at my house. 00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:06.780 I don't know if it happens at your house or not. 00:02:06.780 --> 00:02:07.859 All that planning. 00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:09.640 All that goes on. 00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:13.800 But we are not talking about that anxiousness. 00:02:14.699 --> 00:02:16.719 Today we get to talk about hope. 00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:18.539 Hope. 00:02:19.900 --> 00:02:20.460 Joy. 00:02:20.740 --> 00:02:21.139 Peace. 00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:22.020 Love. 00:02:22.139 --> 00:02:26.699 Those things that we will talk about in the next four weeks. 00:02:26.699 --> 00:02:29.179 Hope. 00:02:33.179 --> 00:02:34.859 It began in the garden. 00:02:37.179 --> 00:02:41.799 When God cursed the certain. 00:02:41.979 --> 00:02:42.839 Cursed Satan. 00:02:44.419 --> 00:02:45.739 What did he say? 00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:50.399 You will bruise his heel. 00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:53.780 But I will crush your head. 00:02:53.780 --> 00:02:55.840 Death. 00:02:57.219 --> 00:02:57.699 Defeated. 00:02:58.300 --> 00:02:59.640 You think of that in Eden. 00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:00.379 Paradise. 00:03:00.920 --> 00:03:01.420 Lost. 00:03:02.780 --> 00:03:04.219 The sin that brought that. 00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:07.300 End of that perfectness. 00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:09.819 There was no need for hope. 00:03:10.460 --> 00:03:11.120 In the garden. 00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:12.180 Everything was. 00:03:13.180 --> 00:03:13.539 Just. 00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:15.120 Perfect. 00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:18.400 Joy. 00:03:18.580 --> 00:03:18.819 Peace. 00:03:18.920 --> 00:03:19.159 Love. 00:03:19.259 --> 00:03:20.120 Wonderful gifts. 00:03:22.020 --> 00:03:23.060 Wonderful promises. 00:03:24.740 --> 00:03:26.520 That set our hope on God. 00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:29.319 You think of the catechism. 00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:30.439 And we will get to this later. 00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:32.099 What is our hope in life. 00:03:32.900 --> 00:03:33.520 And death. 00:03:35.420 --> 00:03:36.599 Hope in the dictionary. 00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:39.520 Is to wish for a particular event. 00:03:40.300 --> 00:03:42.060 That one considers possible. 00:03:42.259 --> 00:03:43.099 To have confidence. 00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:43.759 Or trust. 00:03:44.920 --> 00:03:46.000 To desire. 00:03:46.180 --> 00:03:46.639 Or consider. 00:03:47.020 --> 00:03:48.080 Consider possible. 00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:51.740 An example of this. 00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:53.000 And this is something. 00:03:53.200 --> 00:03:54.480 That I thought of. 00:03:54.540 --> 00:03:55.380 Because I'm older. 00:03:56.520 --> 00:03:57.300 But I don't know. 00:03:57.360 --> 00:03:58.200 If any of you remember. 00:03:58.400 --> 00:03:59.240 What a hope chest. 00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:00.560 Was. 00:04:02.320 --> 00:04:03.220 Raise your hand. 00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:03.640 If you know. 00:04:03.820 --> 00:04:04.520 What a hope chest. 00:04:05.040 --> 00:04:05.200 But. 00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:05.560 Ah. 00:04:06.179 --> 00:04:07.479 We do have some. 00:04:09.019 --> 00:04:10.159 It was a wooden. 00:04:10.659 --> 00:04:11.679 Boxer chest. 00:04:13.739 --> 00:04:14.899 Used to collect. 00:04:15.459 --> 00:04:15.939 Items. 00:04:16.019 --> 00:04:16.719 A young woman. 00:04:16.719 --> 00:04:17.039 One. 00:04:17.579 --> 00:04:18.279 Might need. 00:04:18.379 --> 00:04:19.180 When she was married. 00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:20.599 Something. 00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:21.399 If she started. 00:04:21.539 --> 00:04:22.060 A home. 00:04:23.980 --> 00:04:24.919 It was a tangible. 00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:26.120 Manifestation. 00:04:26.779 --> 00:04:27.819 Of her preparations. 00:04:28.039 --> 00:04:28.639 For the future. 00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:32.639 Filled with essentials. 00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:34.180 Sentimental pieces. 00:04:34.419 --> 00:04:35.180 To help her build. 00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:35.939 Her new life.

00:04:44.539 --> 00:04:45.060 Silverware. 00:04:45.139 --> 00:04:46.399 We don't say silverware. 00:04:46.500 --> 00:04:46.879 Anymore. 00:04:46.879 --> 00:04:47.579 I don't think. 00:04:47.919 -->

And then. 00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:53.039 Stainless steel. 00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:53.800 Flatware. 00:04:53.939 --> 00:04:54.879 Doesn't sound right. 00:04:57.620 --> 00:04:58.620 These things. 00:04:59.219 --> 00:05:00.159 Handmade clothing. 00:05:00.919 --> 00:05:01.579 Hair looms. 00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:03.740 I don't know. 00:05:03.819 --> 00:05:04.579 If any of you. 00:05:05.860 -->

00:05:33.680 Hope for. 00:05:34.899 --> 00:05:36.300 In that kind of. 00:05:36.659 --> 00:05:37.419 Wishful. 00:05:37.779 --> 00:05:38.240 Thinking. 00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:38.479 That. 00:05:38.599 --> 00:05:39.159 That would be. 00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:40.719 Happiness. 00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:42.039 And fulfillment. 00:05:43.039 --> 00:05:44.240 In life. 00:05:44.979 --> 00:05:45.639 Your dreams. 00:05:45.779 --> 00:05:46.360 Come true. 00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:49.500 Finding someone. 00:05:49.500 --> 00:05:50.360 To love. 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:51.360 And cherish you. 00:05:53.139 --> 00:05:54.540 To provide a home. 00:05:55.579 --> 00:05:57.120 And have a life together. 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:01.160 That's one kind of. 00:06:01.220 --> 00:06:01.620 Wishful. 00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:02.379 Hoping. 00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:04.720 And there's nothing wrong. 00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:05.139 With that. 00:06:05.220 --> 00:06:05.860 That's a great. 00:06:06.019 --> 00:06:06.500 Desire. 00:06:07.779 --> 00:06:08.139 Fulfill. 00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:08.980 What God has. 00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:09.399 For you. 00:06:11.779 --> 00:06:12.779 As a Christian. 00:06:12.779 --> 00:06:15.839 What are you hoping. 00:06:16.539 --> 00:06:16.819 For. 00:06:17.939 --> 00:06:19.219 Do you have a hope chest. 00:06:20.419 --> 00:06:21.359 What's in it. 00:06:23.719 --> 00:06:25.659 When the Bible talks about hope. 00:06:27.139 --> 00:06:28.500 It's not the same. 00:06:28.599 --> 00:06:29.279 As wishful thinking. 00:06:29.500 --> 00:06:30.539 It's not uncertainty. 00:06:30.539 --> 00:06:31.879 About what might happen. 00:06:32.719 --> 00:06:34.079 But it's the confident. 00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:35.399 Assurance. 00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:37.099 Of what will happen. 00:06:37.100 --> 00:06:40.360 In Hebrews. 00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:40.800 And this. 00:06:40.980 --> 00:06:42.520 Came across my mind. 00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:42.980 When I was. 00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:45.040 Thinking about hope. 00:06:45.420 --> 00:06:46.020 And I don't know why. 00:06:46.100 --> 00:06:46.320 It came. 00:06:47.100 --> 00:06:48.020 Kind of backwards. 00:06:49.340 --> 00:06:50.080 In Hebrews. 00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:50.540 We read. 00:06:50.700 --> 00:06:51.200 That faith. 00:06:51.280 --> 00:06:51.920 Is the assurance. 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:52.620 Of things. 00:06:52.760 --> 00:06:53.480 Hoped for. 00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:55.480 The conviction. 00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:56.200 Of things. 00:06:56.540 --> 00:06:57.220 Not seen. 00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:00.560 The assurance. 00:07:00.660 --> 00:07:01.040 Of things. 00:07:01.140 --> 00:07:01.460 Hope for. 00:07:01.540 --> 00:07:02.280 What are these things. 00:07:02.379 --> 00:07:02.540 We. 00:07:03.379 --> 00:07:04.060 Hope for. 00:07:05.520 --> 00:07:06.640 Kind of goes by. 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:07.000 Without. 00:07:07.900 --> 00:07:08.820 Thinking about it. 00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:10.760 We think about salvation. 00:07:12.740 --> 00:07:13.260 A life. 00:07:13.340 --> 00:07:14.200 Free from sin. 00:07:15.540 --> 00:07:16.060 Peace. 00:07:17.460 --> 00:07:17.980 Love. 00:07:18.660 --> 00:07:19.040 Joy. 00:07:21.340 --> 00:07:21.820 Companionship. 00:07:22.520 --> 00:07:22.939 Health. 00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:24.540 Happiness. 00:07:24.860 --> 00:07:25.240 A life. 00:07:25.340 --> 00:07:26.240 Free from sorrow. 00:07:27.860 --> 00:07:28.580 Are those. 00:07:28.660 --> 00:07:29.040 The things. 00:07:29.180 --> 00:07:29.920 We hope for. 00:07:30.080 --> 00:07:30.740 Those are the things. 00:07:30.860 --> 00:07:31.420 We look for. 00:07:33.580 --> 00:07:34.580 We are commanded. 00:07:34.740 --> 00:07:35.740 To fix our hope. 00:07:35.740 --> 00:07:35.819 Hope. 00:07:36.379 --> 00:07:37.620 On things above. 00:07:37.740 --> 00:07:38.600 To live in hope. 00:07:42.019 --> 00:07:43.220 Now what is hope? 00:07:43.900 --> 00:07:44.900 We talked about it. 00:07:46.180 --> 00:07:47.680 It's the Christian's attitude. 00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:48.680 Toward the future. 00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:51.319 Hope. 00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:52.139 In essence. 00:07:52.379 --> 00:07:53.600

00:23:23.599 --> 00:23:26.839 We have forgiveness of our trespasses. 00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:28.519 We are sealed by the Spirit. 00:23:29.480 --> 00:23:31.319 We are in the beloved. 00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:34.179 So when you. 00:23:34.899 --> 00:23:35.839 Have a chance. 00:23:35.980 --> 00:23:37.039 Look in your hope chest. 00:23:37.179 --> 00:23:38.039 And see what's there. 00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:42.099 All these things are yours. 00:23:43.180 --> 00:23:44.299 To live with. 00:23:45.059 --> 00:23:45.799 They're mine. 00:23:47.339 --> 00:23:49.680 And these are only a few of those blessings. 00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:51.379 Every spiritual blessing. 00:23:52.460 --> 00:23:53.519 In the heaven. 00:23:56.399 --> 00:23:57.700 As a young bride. 00:23:57.799 --> 00:23:59.480 Might come to her hope chest. 00:23:59.579 --> 00:24:00.180 And open it. 00:24:01.319 --> 00:24:03.240 And look forward to something. 00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:04.720 That she's wishing for. 00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:08.279 We come to our hope chest. 00:24:08.420 --> 00:24:09.339 We open the book. 00:24:11.019 --> 00:24:12.620 The book of his word. 00:24:12.779 --> 00:24:14.259 We open and look at Christ. 00:24:14.380 --> 00:24:14.839 And see. 00:24:15.620 --> 00:24:16.700 All of this. 00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:19.299 Not a dream. 00:24:21.180 --> 00:24:22.059 But hope. 00:24:24.160 --> 00:24:26.299 In the New City Catechism. 00:24:28.019 --> 00:24:29.839 What is our only hope. 00:24:30.059 --> 00:24:30.559 In life. 00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:31.720 And death. 00:24:31.720 --> 00:24:35.240 That we are not our own. 00:24:35.360 --> 00:24:36.059 But belong. 00:24:37.460 --> 00:24:38.640 Body and soul. 00:24:39.259 --> 00:24:40.660 Both in life and death. 00:24:41.460 --> 00:24:42.440 To God. 00:24:43.640 --> 00:24:44.740 And to our Savior. 00:24:44.740 --> 00:24:45.700 Jesus Christ. 00:24:47.200 --> 00:24:48.400 What is our hope. 00:24:48.660 --> 00:24:49.180 In death. 00:24:51.000 --> 00:24:51.759 I went. 00:24:52.019 --> 00:24:53.019 Kind of backwards here. 00:24:53.100 --> 00:24:53.539 Instead of. 00:24:53.759 --> 00:24:54.380 Going to life. 00:24:54.539 --> 00:24:55.380 I go with the death. 00:24:55.920 --> 00:24:57.279 Because I think that's easier. 00:24:58.700 --> 00:24:59.779 What is our hope. 00:24:59.880 --> 00:25:00.319 In death. 00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:03.200 We know. 00:25:04.139 --> 00:25:05.639 That the sting of death. 00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:08.419 Has been done away with. 00:25:09.439 --> 00:25:10.779 Christ took that away. 00:25:11.819 --> 00:25:13.200 We know that in Christ. 00:25:14.059 --> 00:25:15.019 He had promised. 00:25:15.179 --> 00:25:16.399 That he will be with us. 00:25:16.399 --> 00:25:16.980 In heaven. 00:25:18.460 --> 00:25:20.079 As Cody mentioned earlier. 00:25:21.079 --> 00:25:21.559 Today. 00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:22.679 I will be with you. 00:25:22.779 --> 00:25:23.319 In paradise. 00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:24.539 You will be with me. 00:25:24.639 --> 00:25:25.159 In paradise. 00:25:26.460 --> 00:25:28.119 We will be with Christ. 00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:28.199 Christ. 00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:30.839 We only. 00:25:31.500 --> 00:25:33.779 We will be eternally with him. 00:25:33.879 --> 00:25:35.239 We will never sin again. 00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:37.539 That idea. 00:25:37.679 --> 00:25:38.559 We will never. 00:25:39.500 --> 00:25:39.859 Sin. 00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:40.699 Again. 00:25:41.859 --> 00:25:42.719 In death. 00:25:43.719 --> 00:25:45.359 There will be no pain. 00:25:46.319 --> 00:25:47.479 No sorrow. 00:25:48.439 --> 00:25:49.419 No loneliness. 00:25:49.420 --> 00:25:52.700 We will know. 00:25:52.700 --> 00:25:53.340 True love. 00:25:53.340 --> 00:25:55.400 True love. 00:25:57.320 --> 00:25:58.440

00:26:06.900 --> 00:26:08.180 It will be made real. 00:26:09.180 --> 00:26:10.480 We will be. 00:26:10.740 --> 00:26:11.860 So full. 00:26:12.920 --> 00:26:15.140 That we will sing praises. 00:26:15.140 --> 00:26:16.200 To our God. 00:26:16.740 --> 00:26:17.240 Forever. 00:26:17.560 --> 00:26:18.060 And ever. 00:26:18.059 --> 00:26:18.940 And it won't be. 00:26:20.119 --> 00:26:21.000 An issue. 00:26:22.539 --> 00:26:24.460 Will we ever get bored in heaven? 00:26:24.619 --> 00:26:24.899 No. 00:26:26.579 --> 00:26:27.599 We will be. 00:26:31.440 --> 00:26:32.940 Our hope in life. 00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:37.779 We only see dimly now. 00:26:38.200 --> 00:26:38.819 In this life. 00:26:40.039 --> 00:26:41.679 We know God's promises. 00:26:43.480 --> 00:26:44.659 We've read some of them. 00:26:44.740 --> 00:26:47.319 We still struggle in these fleshly bodies. 00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:51.799 We struggle to appropriate. 00:26:52.700 --> 00:26:53.839 By faith. 00:26:53.939 --> 00:26:54.720 Those promises. 00:26:56.439 --> 00:26:57.899 Sometimes life is hard. 00:26:59.839 --> 00:27:02.359 Not everything is what we expected. 00:27:07.240 --> 00:27:09.200 Each day we go

00:27:24.480 Does Jesus care? 00:27:27.319 --> 00:27:28.679 Does Jesus care? 00:27:28.679 --> 00:27:30.220 When my heart is pained. 00:27:30.220 --> 00:27:31.039 Too deeply. 00:27:32.099 --> 00:27:33.460 For mirth and song. 00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:36.480 As the burdens press. 00:27:36.699 --> 00:27:37.759 And the cares distress. 00:27:38.099 --> 00:27:39.399 In the way grows weary.

00:30:56.200 He will bring you to Himself. 00:30:58.339 --> 00:31:01.319 That is our hope in life. 00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:04.200 Paul's prayer in the rest of Ephesians, 00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:09.359 for us, that the Father of glory 00:31:09.359 --> 00:31:12.000 would give them wisdom and a revelation 00:31:12.000 --> 00:31:13.519 in the knowledge of Him. 00:31:13.519 --> 00:31:18.059 That we may know what is the hope 00:31:18.059 --> 00:31:20.279 to which He has called us. 00:31:21.059 --> 00:31:23.539 What are the riches of His glorious inheritance 00:31:23.539 --> 00:31:24.400 in the saints? 00:31:25.400 --> 00:31:27.279 And what is the immeasurable greatness 00:31:27.279 --> 00:31:29.359 of His power toward us 00:31:29.359 --> 00:31:32.019 who believe? 00:31:33.500 -->

00:31:47.900 --> 00:31:49.559 That we are not our own, 00:31:49.660 --> 00:31:51.579 but belong body and soul, 00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:54.099 both in life and in death, 00:31:54.240 --> 00:31:56.640 to
