00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.339
 1 Kings chapter 13, which is page 352 in the Church Bible.

00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:18.320
 Reading from verses 1 to 10.

00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:24.480
 By the word of the Lord, a man of God came from Judah to Bethel,

00:00:25.140 --> 00:00:27.859
 as Jeroboam was standing by the altar to make an offering.

00:00:27.859 --> 00:00:31.640
 By the word of the Lord, he cried out against the altar.

00:00:32.299 --> 00:00:35.359
 Altar, altar! This is what the Lord says.

00:00:36.140 --> 00:00:39.140
 A son named Josiah will be born to the house of David.

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:44.340
 On you he will sacrifice the priests of the high places who make offerings here,

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:46.679
 and human bones will be burned on you.

00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:50.060
 That same day the man of God gave a sign.

00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:53.179
 This is the sign the Lord has declared.

00:00:53.179 --> 00:00:58.100
 The altar will be split apart, and the ashes on it will be poured out.

00:00:58.100 --> 00:01:03.780
 When King Jeroboam heard what the man of God cried out against the altar at Bethel,

00:01:04.140 --> 00:01:07.120
 he stretched out his hand from the altar and said,

00:01:07.460 --> 00:01:08.099
 Seize him!

00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:12.200
 But the hand he stretched out towards the man shriveled up,

00:01:12.460 --> 00:01:14.140
 so that he could not pull it back.

00:01:14.939 --> 00:01:17.040
 Also the altar was split apart,

00:01:17.480 --> 00:01:21.879
 and its ashes poured out according to the sign given by the man of God,

00:01:22.140 --> 00:01:23.280
 by the word of the Lord.

00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:26.599
 Then the king said to the man of God,

00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:28.840
 Intercede with the Lord your God,

00:01:28.900 --> 00:01:31.280
 and pray for me that my hand may be restored.

00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:34.460
 So the man of God interceded with the Lord,

00:01:34.740 --> 00:01:36.760
 and the king's hand was restored,

00:01:37.099 --> 00:01:38.460
 and became as it was before.

00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:41.280
 The king said to the man of God,

00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:44.379
 Come home with me for a meal, and I will give you a gift.

00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:46.939
 But the man of God answered the king,

00:01:47.460 --> 00:01:50.140
 Even if you were to give me half your possessions,

00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:51.560
 I would not go with you,

00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:54.260
 nor would I eat bread or drink water here.

00:01:54.980 --> 00:01:57.260
 For I was commanded by the word of the Lord,

00:01:57.780 --> 00:02:00.180
 You must not eat bread or drink water,

00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:01.920
 or return by the way you came.

00:02:02.780 --> 00:02:04.159
 So he took another road,

00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:07.320
 and did not return by the way he had come to Bethel.

00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:12.120
 And if you look down further in verses 33 and 34,

00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.159
 Even after this,

00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:18.140
 Jeroboam did not change his evil ways,

00:02:18.659 --> 00:02:21.759
 but once more appointed priests for the high places

00:02:21.759 --> 00:02:23.159
 from all sorts of people.

00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:26.000
 Anyone who wanted to become a priest,

00:02:26.539 --> 00:02:28.420
 he consecrated for the high places.

00:02:29.420 --> 00:02:31.900
 This was the sin of the house of Jeroboam

00:02:31.900 --> 00:02:34.800
 that led to its downfall and to its destruction

00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:36.520
 from the face of the earth.

00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:53.040
 So, 1 Kings 13,

00:02:53.140 --> 00:02:55.300
 we're actually going to look at the whole chapter.

00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:56.860
 I don't know if anybody's read it,

00:02:57.680 --> 00:02:59.900
 but it's a fascinating account,

00:02:59.900 --> 00:03:03.740
 and I'm sure raises all kinds of questions

00:03:03.740 --> 00:03:07.400
 which we hope we will work our way through.

00:03:08.140 --> 00:03:11.280
 So let's pray as we look at his word.

00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:19.500
 Father, would you give us humble hearts

00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:23.340
 and listening ears

00:03:23.340 --> 00:03:28.460
 so that we might not only hear your word,

00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:29.659
 but accept it

00:03:29.659 --> 00:03:33.280
 and apply it to our lives,

00:03:34.620 --> 00:03:37.439
 trusting that your word is powerful,

00:03:38.620 --> 00:03:40.439
 powerful to change,

00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:43.719
 powerful to do work

00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:46.920
 that nothing and no one else can do.

00:03:49.580 --> 00:03:51.219
 So, Father, please,

00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:53.199
 through your word,

00:03:53.340 --> 00:03:56.879
 would you make us more like Christ.

00:03:58.300 --> 00:04:00.460
 We pray this in Jesus' name.

00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:01.659
 Amen.

00:04:09.020 --> 00:04:12.080
 Growing up with two older siblings

00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:15.280
 was mostly a good experience.

00:04:16.139 --> 00:04:17.740
 But from time to time,

00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:19.519
 like I'm sure if you have siblings,

00:04:19.780 --> 00:04:20.579
 we would fight.

00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:23.160
 Sometimes it was two on one,

00:04:23.339 --> 00:04:26.639
 and occasionally all against each other.

00:04:27.259 --> 00:04:28.959
 I remember one Sunday afternoon,

00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:30.939
 we'd all been told to go into the kitchen

00:04:30.939 --> 00:04:32.739
 after Sunday lunch to wash up.

00:04:33.159 --> 00:04:34.839
 Now that seems quite straightforward,

00:04:35.060 --> 00:04:35.739
 one to wash,

00:04:35.859 --> 00:04:36.519
 one to dry,

00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:37.899
 one to put away.

00:04:38.699 --> 00:04:39.579
 But somehow,

00:04:39.739 --> 00:04:40.659
 between the three of us,

00:04:40.679 --> 00:04:42.239
 we couldn't come to a consensus.

00:04:42.939 --> 00:04:44.739
 So warfare erupted.

00:04:44.740 --> 00:04:47.840
 And the squabbling hadn't gone on very long

00:04:47.840 --> 00:04:50.400
 when we heard this booming voice,

00:04:50.400 --> 00:04:53.079
 if I hear any more,

00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:55.379
 there's going to be trouble.

00:04:57.060 --> 00:04:58.439
 Well, we didn't listen.

00:04:59.180 --> 00:05:00.860
 Or at least we reasoned

00:05:00.860 --> 00:05:02.579
 that those warning words

00:05:02.579 --> 00:05:04.379
 were not that serious.

00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:07.100
 Well, they were serious.

00:05:07.100 --> 00:05:08.960
 And what was threatened

00:05:08.960 --> 00:05:10.760
 came to pass.

00:05:11.400 --> 00:05:13.360
 With three warmed bums,

00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:16.000
 we quickly got on with the wash up.

00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:17.580
 We quickly came to realise

00:05:17.580 --> 00:05:21.160
 that there was only one ruling word.

00:05:21.840 --> 00:05:24.060
 And that's the message of chapter 13.

00:05:24.400 --> 00:05:27.840
 There is only one ruling word.

00:05:28.840 --> 00:05:30.820
 Have a look with me at verse 32,

00:05:30.819 --> 00:05:31.879
 which in some ways

00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:33.000
 is a great summary

00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:35.099
 of this whole chapter.

00:05:36.060 --> 00:05:37.159
 Verse 32.

00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:39.060
 For the message,

00:05:39.599 --> 00:05:40.879
 he, that's the prophet,

00:05:41.300 --> 00:05:44.079
 declared by the word of the Lord

00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:45.740
 against the altar in Bethel

00:05:45.740 --> 00:05:46.920
 and against all the shrines

00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:47.800
 and the high places

00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:49.100
 in the towns of Samaria,

00:05:49.719 --> 00:05:53.019
 will certainly come true.

00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:56.459
 When God speaks,

00:05:57.819 --> 00:06:00.620
 his words always come to pass.

00:06:01.540 --> 00:06:02.980
 They come true.

00:06:04.099 --> 00:06:06.079
 And to make sure we don't miss this,

00:06:06.219 --> 00:06:08.379
 the author keeps repeating

00:06:08.379 --> 00:06:10.060
 throughout the whole chapter

00:06:10.060 --> 00:06:12.659
 by the word of the Lord.

00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:14.319
 Everything happens

00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:16.740
 by the word of the Lord.

00:06:17.860 --> 00:06:19.959
 God rules by his word

00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:21.539
 and what he says

00:06:21.539 --> 00:06:24.060
 always comes to pass.

00:06:25.060 --> 00:06:27.420
 Of course, God continues to speak

00:06:27.420 --> 00:06:29.779
 and he continues to rule

00:06:29.779 --> 00:06:31.599
 through his written word.

00:06:32.179 --> 00:06:34.519
 So what we find in chapter 13

00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:36.399
 is not just history,

00:06:36.899 --> 00:06:39.799
 but it is God's word for us today.

00:06:41.059 --> 00:06:44.519
 So what is God speaking to us about

00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:46.779
 from chapter 13?

00:06:46.779 --> 00:06:52.339
 Well, first, we want to see

00:06:52.339 --> 00:06:55.139
 the power of God's word.

00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:56.959
 The power of God's word.

00:06:57.500 --> 00:06:59.000
 A little context will help

00:06:59.000 --> 00:07:01.359
 as we jump into chapter 13.

00:07:02.139 --> 00:07:05.459
 The kingdom that was under David

00:07:05.459 --> 00:07:07.259
 and then passed to Solomon, his son,

00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:09.219
 has now been divided.

00:07:09.220 --> 00:07:12.120
 And Jeroboam is ruling

00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:13.980
 in the northern part of the kingdom

00:07:13.980 --> 00:07:15.860
 over the majority of the tribes.

00:07:16.500 --> 00:07:18.500
 But the division of the kingdom

00:07:18.500 --> 00:07:22.000
 has led to great disobedience.

00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:24.639
 Have a look back at chapter 12,

00:07:24.980 --> 00:07:26.160
 verse 28.

00:07:31.040 --> 00:07:32.620
 After seeking advice,

00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:35.240
 the king, that's King Jeroboam,

00:07:35.579 --> 00:07:37.500
 made two golden calves.

00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:39.160
 He said to the people,

00:07:39.740 --> 00:07:41.600
 it is too much for you

00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:42.959
 to go up to Jerusalem.

00:07:43.740 --> 00:07:45.079
 Here are your gods,

00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:47.899
 Israel, who brought you up

00:07:47.899 --> 00:07:49.079
 out of Egypt.

00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:51.199
 It's almost identical

00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:53.139
 to what Aaron said

00:07:53.139 --> 00:07:54.000
 to the people

00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:56.279
 when Moses went up to the mountain

00:07:56.279 --> 00:07:57.159
 and when they were

00:07:57.159 --> 00:07:59.060
 delivered from Egypt.

00:07:59.659 --> 00:08:00.240
 Verse 29.

00:08:00.719 --> 00:08:02.800
 One he set up in Bethel in the south

00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:04.719
 and the other god he set up

00:08:04.719 --> 00:08:06.419
 in Dan in the north.

00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:08.799
 And this thing became a sin.

00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:10.680
 The people came to worship

00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:11.659
 the one at Bethel

00:08:11.659 --> 00:08:13.819
 and went afar as Dan

00:08:13.819 --> 00:08:15.759
 to worship the other.

00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:18.979
 So Jeroboam has removed

00:08:18.980 --> 00:08:20.540
 the one true God

00:08:20.540 --> 00:08:22.780
 and has replaced him

00:08:22.780 --> 00:08:24.120
 with his own gods.

00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:26.360
 Essentially, he's breaking

00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:27.640
 the first commandments.

00:08:28.640 --> 00:08:30.280
 You shall have no other god

00:08:30.280 --> 00:08:30.960
 before me.

00:08:31.300 --> 00:08:33.240
 You shall not bow down

00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:35.080
 to them or worship them.

00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:36.820
 So what does God

00:08:36.820 --> 00:08:38.259
 have to say about this?

00:08:38.960 --> 00:08:40.139
 Well, here's where we jump

00:08:40.139 --> 00:08:42.220
 into chapter 13 and verse 1.

00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:45.500
 By the word of the Lord,

00:08:45.500 --> 00:08:46.740
 a man of God,

00:08:47.059 --> 00:08:47.600
 a prophet,

00:08:47.940 --> 00:08:49.620
 came from Judah to Bethel

00:08:49.620 --> 00:08:51.440
 as Jeroboam was standing

00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:52.320
 by the altar

00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:54.139
 to make an offering.

00:08:55.159 --> 00:08:55.940
 Now, we don't know

00:08:55.940 --> 00:08:57.440
 what the prophet's name is.

00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:00.399
 But that's not important.

00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:02.759
 It's what he has to say.

00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:05.700
 That's what should concern us.

00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:08.120
 We need to see the power

00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:10.039
 of God's word.

00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:11.899
 First, God's word

00:09:11.899 --> 00:09:14.240
 determines the future.

00:09:15.099 --> 00:09:16.519
 It determines the future.

00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:17.519
 Look at verse 2.

00:09:18.139 --> 00:09:19.459
 By the word of the Lord,

00:09:19.579 --> 00:09:21.439
 he cried out against the altar.

00:09:21.919 --> 00:09:22.879
 So here's the prophet

00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:25.599
 speaking against the altar.

00:09:26.079 --> 00:09:26.879
 Altar, altar.

00:09:27.659 --> 00:09:29.519
 This is what the Lord says.

00:09:30.179 --> 00:09:32.219
 A son named Josiah,

00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:33.579
 we're going to come back

00:09:33.579 --> 00:09:34.179
 to him in a minute,

00:09:34.559 --> 00:09:37.000
 will be born to the house of David.

00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:38.820
 On you,

00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:40.360
 he will sacrifice

00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:42.399
 the priests of the high places

00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:44.559
 who make offerings here

00:09:44.559 --> 00:09:45.980
 and human bones

00:09:45.980 --> 00:09:47.539
 will be burned on you.

00:09:48.620 --> 00:09:49.559
 Quite straightforward.

00:09:49.940 --> 00:09:51.000
 God says he's going to

00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:52.159
 raise up a king

00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:53.919
 who's called Josiah,

00:09:54.259 --> 00:09:55.379
 who's going to bring about

00:09:55.379 --> 00:09:56.379
 a reformation

00:09:56.379 --> 00:09:57.539
 of the whole people.

00:09:57.980 --> 00:09:59.259
 He's going to punish

00:09:59.259 --> 00:10:00.460
 the priests

00:10:00.460 --> 00:10:01.480
 and he's going to

00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:03.779
 break down the false altars.

00:10:03.779 --> 00:10:06.639
 Don't believe that God

00:10:06.639 --> 00:10:07.339
 will do it?

00:10:08.379 --> 00:10:09.319
 Well, have a look at

00:10:09.319 --> 00:10:11.459
 2 Kings 23 sometime.

00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:12.699
 Because there,

00:10:12.819 --> 00:10:13.720
 not surprisingly,

00:10:14.019 --> 00:10:14.879
 we meet a king

00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:16.279
 named Josiah

00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:18.299
 who does what God said

00:10:18.299 --> 00:10:19.039
 would happen.

00:10:20.059 --> 00:10:21.139
 But Jeroboam

00:10:21.139 --> 00:10:22.240
 and the prophet,

00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:23.159
 well, obviously,

00:10:23.339 --> 00:10:24.019
 they don't have

00:10:24.019 --> 00:10:25.299
 2 Kings 23

00:10:25.299 --> 00:10:26.339
 to turn to.

00:10:26.699 --> 00:10:27.259
 For them,

00:10:27.419 --> 00:10:28.779
 what the prophet has said

00:10:28.779 --> 00:10:30.159
 is still a word

00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:31.519
 about the future.

00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:33.000
 It is yet to happen.

00:10:33.779 --> 00:10:34.740
 So how are we

00:10:34.740 --> 00:10:35.539
 and how are they

00:10:35.539 --> 00:10:36.839
 ever going to trust

00:10:36.839 --> 00:10:38.299
 that God's word

00:10:38.299 --> 00:10:40.079
 determines the future?

00:10:42.019 --> 00:10:42.679
 Well, second,

00:10:42.919 --> 00:10:43.839
 God acts

00:10:43.839 --> 00:10:44.860
 in the present.

00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:46.220
 Verse 3.

00:10:46.819 --> 00:10:47.720
 That same day,

00:10:47.799 --> 00:10:48.600
 the man of God

00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:49.480
 gave a sign.

00:10:50.740 --> 00:10:51.860
 This is the sign

00:10:51.860 --> 00:10:53.100
 the Lord has declared.

00:10:53.659 --> 00:10:54.459
 The altar

00:10:54.459 --> 00:10:56.059
 will be split apart

00:10:56.059 --> 00:10:57.639
 and the ashes

00:10:57.639 --> 00:10:58.079
 on it

00:10:58.079 --> 00:10:59.159
 will be poured out.

00:10:59.559 --> 00:11:01.480
 So that you may know

00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:02.939
 that God determines

00:11:02.939 --> 00:11:03.720
 the future.

00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:05.379
 That his word

00:11:05.379 --> 00:11:06.519
 controls what is

00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:07.259
 going to happen.

00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:09.199
 Let me show you

00:11:09.199 --> 00:11:11.259
 the power of God's word

00:11:11.259 --> 00:11:12.019
 now.

00:11:13.019 --> 00:11:13.740
 Verse 4.

00:11:14.319 --> 00:11:15.860
 So when King Jeroboam

00:11:15.860 --> 00:11:16.839
 heard that the man

00:11:16.839 --> 00:11:17.779
 of God cried out

00:11:17.779 --> 00:11:18.579
 against the altar

00:11:18.579 --> 00:11:19.240
 at Bethel,

00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:20.939
 he stretched out

00:11:20.939 --> 00:11:21.579
 his hand

00:11:21.579 --> 00:11:23.299
 from the altar

00:11:23.299 --> 00:11:23.759
 and said,

00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:24.559
 seize him.

00:11:25.620 --> 00:11:26.659
 But the hand

00:11:26.659 --> 00:11:27.559
 he stretched out

00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:28.360
 towards the man

00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:29.279
 shriveled up

00:11:29.279 --> 00:11:30.779
 so that he couldn't

00:11:30.779 --> 00:11:31.659
 pull it back.

00:11:31.659 --> 00:11:33.379
 It's like a kind

00:11:33.379 --> 00:11:34.539
 of paralysis

00:11:34.539 --> 00:11:35.639
 or a weakness

00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:37.439
 has come over the king.

00:11:38.100 --> 00:11:39.219
 Jeroboam's power

00:11:39.219 --> 00:11:41.139
 has been removed.

00:11:41.139 --> 00:11:42.839
 All he can do

00:11:42.839 --> 00:11:43.860
 is watch

00:11:43.860 --> 00:11:45.019
 the power

00:11:45.019 --> 00:11:46.539
 of God's word

00:11:46.539 --> 00:11:47.860
 take action.

00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:48.959
 And so,

00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:49.719
 verse 5,

00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:51.200
 the altar

00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:52.480
 was split apart

00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:53.860
 and the ashes

00:11:53.860 --> 00:11:54.540
 poured out

00:11:54.540 --> 00:11:55.759
 according to the sign

00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:57.340
 given by the man

00:11:57.340 --> 00:11:57.920
 of God

00:11:57.920 --> 00:12:00.620
 by the word

00:12:00.620 --> 00:12:01.920
 of the Lord.

00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:03.779
 He says,

00:12:03.860 --> 00:12:04.579
 if he's saying,

00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:06.259
 do you believe me

00:12:06.259 --> 00:12:06.699
 now,

00:12:07.019 --> 00:12:07.659
 Jeroboam?

00:12:08.219 --> 00:12:09.120
 My word

00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:10.539
 determines the future

00:12:10.539 --> 00:12:12.719
 and it acts

00:12:12.719 --> 00:12:13.620
 in the present

00:12:13.620 --> 00:12:15.539
 so therefore

00:12:15.539 --> 00:12:16.919
 listen to my word

00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:17.620
 and deal

00:12:17.620 --> 00:12:18.919
 with your sinful

00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:19.599
 hearts.

00:12:21.679 --> 00:12:22.399
 Now,

00:12:22.459 --> 00:12:23.219
 let's not do

00:12:23.219 --> 00:12:23.799
 ourselves

00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:24.919
 out of a favour

00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:26.719
 and resign

00:12:26.719 --> 00:12:27.539
 this account

00:12:27.539 --> 00:12:28.659
 chapter 13

00:12:28.659 --> 00:12:29.459
 to some event

00:12:29.459 --> 00:12:30.399
 that took past

00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:31.480
 in the history.

00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:33.579
 Because God's word

00:12:33.579 --> 00:12:34.839
 continues to speak

00:12:34.839 --> 00:12:35.740
 to us today

00:12:35.740 --> 00:12:37.299
 and confronts

00:12:37.299 --> 00:12:38.120
 our sin.

00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:40.240
 You see,

00:12:40.339 --> 00:12:40.860
 we do

00:12:40.860 --> 00:12:41.919
 what Jeroboam

00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:42.659
 has done

00:12:42.659 --> 00:12:43.559
 all the time.

00:12:43.979 --> 00:12:44.579
 We break

00:12:44.579 --> 00:12:45.959
 the creator's commands.

00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:47.699
 You shall have

00:12:47.699 --> 00:12:48.620
 no other god

00:12:48.620 --> 00:12:49.319
 before me.

00:12:49.699 --> 00:12:50.399
 You shall not

00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:51.459
 bow down to them

00:12:51.459 --> 00:12:52.319
 and worship them.

00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:53.659
 Now,

00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:54.019
 okay,

00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:55.019
 we mightn't go out

00:12:55.019 --> 00:12:55.679
 and be building

00:12:55.679 --> 00:12:56.299
 shrines

00:12:56.299 --> 00:12:57.299
 and sacrificing

00:12:57.299 --> 00:12:58.039
 at altars

00:12:58.039 --> 00:12:58.879
 or have golden

00:12:58.879 --> 00:13:00.139
 calves in our garden,

00:13:00.539 --> 00:13:01.299
 but we do

00:13:01.299 --> 00:13:02.539
 turn to our work

00:13:02.539 --> 00:13:04.000
 and to our children

00:13:04.000 --> 00:13:04.959
 and to our hobbies

00:13:04.959 --> 00:13:05.899
 and we make them

00:13:05.899 --> 00:13:06.859
 little gods.

00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:08.240
 They become

00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:09.959
 our god substitutes.

00:13:10.379 --> 00:13:11.379
 We worship them.

00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:12.699
 We give our life

00:13:12.699 --> 00:13:13.099
 to them

00:13:13.099 --> 00:13:13.939
 in the hope

00:13:13.939 --> 00:13:14.559
 that somehow

00:13:14.559 --> 00:13:15.120
 they're going to

00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:15.939
 give us joy

00:13:15.939 --> 00:13:16.659
 and happiness.

00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:18.240
 We remove God

00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:19.059
 from the centre

00:13:19.059 --> 00:13:19.879
 of our lives

00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:21.539
 and we replace him

00:13:21.539 --> 00:13:22.639
 with our own

00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:23.699
 made-up gods

00:13:23.699 --> 00:13:25.139
 which have no power

00:13:25.139 --> 00:13:26.799
 to change us

00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:28.299
 or forgive us.

00:13:28.299 --> 00:13:31.620
 God's word

00:13:31.620 --> 00:13:32.240
 has something

00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:33.479
 to say about that.

00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:37.099
 You might remember

00:13:37.099 --> 00:13:38.519
 the account in Acts

00:13:38.519 --> 00:13:39.859
 where the apostle Paul

00:13:39.859 --> 00:13:40.519
 is wandering

00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:41.419
 around the city

00:13:41.419 --> 00:13:41.979
 of Athens

00:13:41.979 --> 00:13:44.219
 and as he wandered

00:13:44.219 --> 00:13:45.000
 around he saw

00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:45.979
 all these idols,

00:13:47.819 --> 00:13:48.959
 objects of worship,

00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:52.059
 God substitutes,

00:13:52.500 --> 00:13:53.439
 dotted all around

00:13:53.439 --> 00:13:54.000
 the city.

00:13:54.740 --> 00:13:55.000
 Well,

00:13:55.039 --> 00:13:56.279
 listen to God's word

00:13:56.279 --> 00:13:57.419
 through Paul.

00:13:59.419 --> 00:14:00.019
 He,

00:14:00.139 --> 00:14:00.939
 that is God,

00:14:01.139 --> 00:14:02.500
 commands all people

00:14:02.500 --> 00:14:04.059
 everywhere to repent

00:14:04.059 --> 00:14:06.220
 for he has set a day

00:14:06.220 --> 00:14:07.299
 when he will judge

00:14:07.299 --> 00:14:08.679
 the world with justice

00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:10.039
 by the man,

00:14:10.379 --> 00:14:11.539
 that is Christ,

00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:12.839
 he has appointed.

00:14:13.539 --> 00:14:14.959
 So it's a word

00:14:14.959 --> 00:14:16.500
 about the future.

00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:17.939
 It's a judgment

00:14:17.939 --> 00:14:18.679
 that he says

00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:19.879
 is going to come.

00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:21.699
 Well,

00:14:21.740 --> 00:14:23.100
 how are we to believe that?

00:14:23.240 --> 00:14:23.839
 Are we meant

00:14:23.839 --> 00:14:24.939
 to trust this word?

00:14:24.940 --> 00:14:26.580
 How do we know

00:14:26.580 --> 00:14:27.700
 or how can we trust

00:14:27.700 --> 00:14:29.060
 that God determines

00:14:29.060 --> 00:14:29.740
 the future

00:14:29.740 --> 00:14:30.940
 and that a judgment

00:14:30.940 --> 00:14:31.760
 is to come?

00:14:32.880 --> 00:14:33.260
 Well,

00:14:33.280 --> 00:14:34.060
 listen to the rest

00:14:34.060 --> 00:14:35.100
 of what Paul said.

00:14:36.240 --> 00:14:36.660
 For he,

00:14:36.780 --> 00:14:37.400
 that is God,

00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:38.640
 has given proof

00:14:38.640 --> 00:14:39.880
 of this

00:14:39.880 --> 00:14:41.320
 to everyone

00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:43.420
 by raising him

00:14:43.420 --> 00:14:45.080
 from the dead.

00:14:46.060 --> 00:14:46.680
 Do you see

00:14:46.680 --> 00:14:47.840
 the connections there?

00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:49.580
 God has acted

00:14:49.580 --> 00:14:51.040
 in the present

00:14:51.040 --> 00:14:53.640
 by raising his son,

00:14:53.639 --> 00:14:54.519
 Jesus Christ

00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:55.139
 from the dead

00:14:55.139 --> 00:14:57.319
 by his powerful word

00:14:57.319 --> 00:14:58.679
 to prove

00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:00.759
 that we can trust

00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:01.480
 his word

00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:03.139
 about a future

00:15:03.139 --> 00:15:03.980
 judgment

00:15:03.980 --> 00:15:04.899
 to come.

00:15:06.059 --> 00:15:07.139
 So first,

00:15:07.419 --> 00:15:08.860
 we need to see

00:15:08.860 --> 00:15:09.699
 the power

00:15:09.699 --> 00:15:11.299
 of God's word

00:15:11.299 --> 00:15:11.939
 and that when

00:15:11.939 --> 00:15:12.840
 he speaks,

00:15:13.539 --> 00:15:14.600
 it always

00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:15.299
 comes

00:15:15.299 --> 00:15:16.139
 true.

00:15:18.299 --> 00:15:18.860
 Second,

00:15:19.039 --> 00:15:19.779
 we need to hear

00:15:19.779 --> 00:15:20.620
 the clarity

00:15:20.620 --> 00:15:22.379
 of God's word.

00:15:23.340 --> 00:15:24.039
 The focus

00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:24.659
 now takes

00:15:24.659 --> 00:15:25.220
 a dramatic

00:15:25.220 --> 00:15:25.799
 shift

00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:26.759
 away from

00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:27.860
 King Jeroboam

00:15:27.860 --> 00:15:29.700
 to the prophet

00:15:29.700 --> 00:15:30.299
 himself

00:15:30.299 --> 00:15:31.440
 because he too

00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:32.700
 needs to hear

00:15:32.700 --> 00:15:33.899
 God's word.

00:15:35.500 --> 00:15:36.100
 First,

00:15:37.060 --> 00:15:37.799
 the command.

00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:38.940
 Look at verse 11.

00:15:40.259 --> 00:15:40.600
 Now,

00:15:40.659 --> 00:15:41.399
 there was a certain

00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:42.379
 old prophet,

00:15:42.659 --> 00:15:43.659
 so we've got to

00:15:43.659 --> 00:15:44.620
 keep right here,

00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:45.659
 so this is an old

00:15:45.659 --> 00:15:46.080
 prophet

00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:46.220
 prophet,

00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:48.139
 and there's

00:15:48.139 --> 00:15:49.080
 the prophet

00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:49.660
 who spoke

00:15:49.660 --> 00:15:50.120
 earlier.

00:15:50.300 --> 00:15:50.680
 So there was

00:15:50.680 --> 00:15:51.139
 a certain

00:15:51.139 --> 00:15:52.020
 old prophet

00:15:52.020 --> 00:15:53.139
 living in Bethel

00:15:53.139 --> 00:15:54.340
 whose sons

00:15:54.340 --> 00:15:54.879
 came and

00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:55.520
 told him

00:15:55.520 --> 00:15:56.200
 all that

00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:56.820
 the man of

00:15:56.820 --> 00:15:57.280
 God had

00:15:57.280 --> 00:15:57.660
 done there

00:15:57.660 --> 00:15:58.259
 that day.

00:15:59.139 --> 00:15:59.900
 They also

00:15:59.900 --> 00:16:00.440
 told their

00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:01.040
 father what

00:16:01.040 --> 00:16:01.520
 he had said

00:16:01.520 --> 00:16:02.120
 to the king.

00:16:02.300 --> 00:16:02.660
 Now,

00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:03.040
 this has

00:16:03.040 --> 00:16:03.680
 intrigued

00:16:03.680 --> 00:16:05.060
 the old

00:16:05.060 --> 00:16:05.460
 prophet.

00:16:05.920 --> 00:16:06.540
 He's heard

00:16:06.540 --> 00:16:07.160
 about these

00:16:07.160 --> 00:16:07.900
 events where

00:16:07.900 --> 00:16:08.440
 the altar

00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:09.580
 has crashed

00:16:09.580 --> 00:16:10.280
 apart and

00:16:10.280 --> 00:16:11.100
 split open

00:16:11.100 --> 00:16:12.100
 and everything

00:16:12.100 --> 00:16:12.540
 that had

00:16:12.540 --> 00:16:12.940
 gone on

00:16:12.940 --> 00:16:13.120
 there,

00:16:13.379 --> 00:16:13.820
 and he

00:16:13.820 --> 00:16:14.360
 wants to

00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:14.740
 have a

00:16:14.740 --> 00:16:15.040
 meeting

00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:15.899
 with this

00:16:15.899 --> 00:16:16.500
 particular

00:16:16.500 --> 00:16:16.939
 prophet.

00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:17.919
 So,

00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:18.740
 verse 15,

00:16:19.959 --> 00:16:20.620
 the prophet

00:16:20.620 --> 00:16:21.399
 said to him,

00:16:21.860 --> 00:16:22.319
 that's the

00:16:22.319 --> 00:16:22.959
 old prophet

00:16:22.959 --> 00:16:23.559
 says to the

00:16:23.559 --> 00:16:24.179
 younger prophet,

00:16:24.639 --> 00:16:25.519
 come home

00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:26.139
 with me

00:16:26.139 --> 00:16:26.899
 and eat.

00:16:28.139 --> 00:16:28.939
 The man

00:16:28.939 --> 00:16:29.379
 of God

00:16:29.379 --> 00:16:29.819
 said,

00:16:30.279 --> 00:16:31.099
 I cannot

00:16:31.099 --> 00:16:31.879
 turn back

00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:32.240
 and go

00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:32.759
 with you,

00:16:33.099 --> 00:16:33.699
 nor can

00:16:33.699 --> 00:16:34.219
 I eat

00:16:34.219 --> 00:16:34.599
 bread

00:16:34.599 --> 00:16:35.179
 or drink

00:16:35.179 --> 00:16:35.599
 water

00:16:35.599 --> 00:16:36.279
 with you

00:16:36.279 --> 00:16:36.839
 in this

00:16:36.839 --> 00:16:37.319
 place.

00:16:37.939 --> 00:16:38.639
 I have

00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:39.439
 been told

00:16:39.439 --> 00:16:40.459
 by the

00:16:40.459 --> 00:16:40.860
 word of

00:16:40.860 --> 00:16:41.279
 the Lord,

00:16:41.599 --> 00:16:42.259
 you must

00:16:42.259 --> 00:16:42.939
 not eat

00:16:42.939 --> 00:16:43.360
 bread

00:16:43.360 --> 00:16:44.099
 or drink

00:16:44.099 --> 00:16:44.539
 water

00:16:44.539 --> 00:16:44.860
 there,

00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:45.939
 or return

00:16:45.939 --> 00:16:46.439
 by the

00:16:46.439 --> 00:16:46.899
 way you

00:16:46.899 --> 00:16:47.299
 came.

00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:50.360
 Now,

00:16:50.439 --> 00:16:50.839
 we might

00:16:50.839 --> 00:16:51.399
 begin to

00:16:51.399 --> 00:16:52.199
 question the

00:16:52.199 --> 00:16:52.919
 commands of

00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:53.299
 God.

00:16:53.959 --> 00:16:54.699
 We might

00:16:54.699 --> 00:16:55.639
 not understand

00:16:55.639 --> 00:16:56.500
 why the

00:16:56.500 --> 00:16:57.259
 young prophet

00:16:57.259 --> 00:16:57.899
 must turn

00:16:57.899 --> 00:16:58.579
 down such

00:16:58.579 --> 00:16:59.299
 a generous

00:16:59.299 --> 00:17:00.339
 invitation

00:17:00.339 --> 00:17:00.959
 and such

00:17:00.959 --> 00:17:01.360
 great

00:17:01.360 --> 00:17:02.019
 hospitality.

00:17:03.139 --> 00:17:04.059
 It might

00:17:04.059 --> 00:17:04.759
 be that the

00:17:04.759 --> 00:17:05.399
 old prophet

00:17:05.399 --> 00:17:05.980
 wants to

00:17:05.980 --> 00:17:06.460
 use him

00:17:06.460 --> 00:17:06.980
 for his

00:17:06.980 --> 00:17:07.440
 good.

00:17:08.500 --> 00:17:09.200
 We don't

00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:09.420
 know.

00:17:09.500 --> 00:17:09.859
 We're not

00:17:09.859 --> 00:17:10.619
 told what

00:17:10.619 --> 00:17:11.159
 the reason

00:17:11.159 --> 00:17:11.680
 is.

00:17:12.299 --> 00:17:13.039
 But whatever

00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:13.779
 the reason,

00:17:14.259 --> 00:17:14.759
 God's

00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:15.159
 command

00:17:15.159 --> 00:17:15.720
 remains

00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:16.240
 crystal

00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:16.659
 clear.

00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:17.819
 Don't

00:17:17.819 --> 00:17:18.779
 go back

00:17:18.779 --> 00:17:19.519
 to his

00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:19.980
 house.

00:17:21.700 --> 00:17:22.859
 Verse 18.

00:17:23.859 --> 00:17:24.859
 The old

00:17:24.859 --> 00:17:25.240
 prophet

00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:25.779
 answered,

00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:26.519
 Ah,

00:17:26.940 --> 00:17:27.920
 I too

00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:28.579
 am a

00:17:28.579 --> 00:17:28.920
 prophet

00:17:28.920 --> 00:17:29.879
 as you

00:17:29.879 --> 00:17:30.180
 are.

00:17:30.940 --> 00:17:31.579
 And an

00:17:31.579 --> 00:17:32.359
 angel said

00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:32.819
 to me,

00:17:33.059 --> 00:17:33.619
 by the

00:17:33.619 --> 00:17:34.000
 word of

00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:34.480
 the Lord,

00:17:34.899 --> 00:17:35.639
 bring him

00:17:35.639 --> 00:17:36.220
 back with

00:17:36.220 --> 00:17:36.539
 you to

00:17:36.539 --> 00:17:37.099
 your house

00:17:37.099 --> 00:17:37.819
 so that

00:17:37.819 --> 00:17:38.180
 he may

00:17:38.180 --> 00:17:38.879
 eat bread

00:17:38.879 --> 00:17:39.440
 and drink

00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:39.920
 water.

00:17:39.920 --> 00:17:42.200
 but he

00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:42.800
 was lying

00:17:42.800 --> 00:17:43.340
 to him.

00:17:44.120 --> 00:17:44.740
 So the

00:17:44.740 --> 00:17:45.160
 man of

00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:45.440
 God

00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:45.940
 returned

00:17:45.940 --> 00:17:46.400
 with him

00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:46.820
 and ate

00:17:46.820 --> 00:17:47.560
 and drank

00:17:47.560 --> 00:17:48.320
 in his

00:17:48.320 --> 00:17:48.779
 house.

00:17:50.300 --> 00:17:50.779
 Now,

00:17:50.900 --> 00:17:51.320
 we might

00:17:51.320 --> 00:17:51.600
 have a

00:17:51.600 --> 00:17:51.900
 bit of

00:17:51.900 --> 00:17:52.300
 sympathy

00:17:52.300 --> 00:17:52.980
 here with

00:17:52.980 --> 00:17:53.500
 this young

00:17:53.500 --> 00:17:53.920
 prophet.

00:17:54.560 --> 00:17:55.279
 After all,

00:17:55.340 --> 00:17:56.180
 this new

00:17:56.180 --> 00:17:56.840
 word that

00:17:56.840 --> 00:17:57.279
 has come

00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:57.800
 to him,

00:17:58.039 --> 00:17:58.539
 so it

00:17:58.539 --> 00:17:59.160
 was claimed,

00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:00.440
 came from

00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:01.660
 an angel.

00:18:02.560 --> 00:18:02.840
 Now,

00:18:02.900 --> 00:18:03.460
 you can't

00:18:03.460 --> 00:18:04.120
 argue with

00:18:04.120 --> 00:18:04.700
 that kind

00:18:04.700 --> 00:18:05.380
 of authority,

00:18:05.580 --> 00:18:06.039
 can you?

00:18:07.060 --> 00:18:07.460
 I mean,

00:18:07.500 --> 00:18:08.140
 he has to

00:18:08.140 --> 00:18:08.680
 go along

00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:09.039
 with it.

00:18:09.039 --> 00:18:09.899
 After all,

00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:10.599
 an angel

00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:11.279
 has spoken,

00:18:11.659 --> 00:18:12.059
 so we

00:18:12.059 --> 00:18:12.559
 must do

00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:12.920
 what the

00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:13.460
 angel has

00:18:13.460 --> 00:18:13.759
 said,

00:18:13.819 --> 00:18:14.119
 right?

00:18:16.579 --> 00:18:17.099
 No.

00:18:18.460 --> 00:18:18.940
 God's

00:18:18.940 --> 00:18:19.500
 command

00:18:19.500 --> 00:18:20.839
 was crystal

00:18:20.839 --> 00:18:21.319
 clear.

00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:22.559
 Don't

00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:23.460
 go back

00:18:23.460 --> 00:18:23.980
 to his

00:18:23.980 --> 00:18:24.500
 house.

00:18:26.399 --> 00:18:26.839
 You see,

00:18:26.940 --> 00:18:27.319
 God's

00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:27.759
 word is

00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:28.299
 full of

00:18:28.299 --> 00:18:28.740
 commands

00:18:28.740 --> 00:18:29.119
 that we

00:18:29.119 --> 00:18:29.399
 might

00:18:29.399 --> 00:18:29.960
 question

00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:30.619
 and that

00:18:30.619 --> 00:18:31.059
 we might

00:18:31.059 --> 00:18:31.659
 deem to

00:18:31.659 --> 00:18:32.559
 be unfair

00:18:32.559 --> 00:18:33.220
 or that

00:18:33.220 --> 00:18:33.799
 perhaps we

00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:34.240
 don't even

00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:35.000
 understand.

00:18:35.859 --> 00:18:36.480
 But that

00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:37.019
 doesn't mean

00:18:37.019 --> 00:18:37.639
 to say we

00:18:37.639 --> 00:18:38.000
 have the

00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:38.460
 right to

00:18:38.460 --> 00:18:39.059
 disobey

00:18:39.059 --> 00:18:39.480
 it.

00:18:40.360 --> 00:18:40.779
 Oh,

00:18:40.840 --> 00:18:41.180
 we can

00:18:41.180 --> 00:18:41.819
 claim that

00:18:41.819 --> 00:18:42.059
 it was

00:18:42.059 --> 00:18:42.680
 some new

00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:43.299
 revelation.

00:18:43.900 --> 00:18:44.039
 Oh,

00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:45.000
 God told

00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:45.420
 me.

00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:47.460
 Or we

00:18:47.460 --> 00:18:47.840
 can come

00:18:47.840 --> 00:18:48.180
 up with

00:18:48.180 --> 00:18:48.559
 a new

00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:49.240
 interpretation.

00:18:50.019 --> 00:18:50.319
 You know

00:18:50.319 --> 00:18:50.680
 what?

00:18:51.019 --> 00:18:51.680
 That was

00:18:51.680 --> 00:18:52.079
 then,

00:18:52.299 --> 00:18:52.860
 this is

00:18:52.860 --> 00:18:53.200
 now.

00:18:53.600 --> 00:18:54.019
 Times

00:18:54.019 --> 00:18:54.259
 have

00:18:54.259 --> 00:18:54.720
 changed.

00:18:55.019 --> 00:18:55.120
 We

00:18:55.120 --> 00:18:55.420
 do

00:18:55.420 --> 00:18:55.900
 things

00:18:55.900 --> 00:18:56.620
 differently.

00:18:57.900 --> 00:18:58.700
 Or we

00:18:58.700 --> 00:18:59.299
 might even

00:18:59.299 --> 00:18:59.720
 say,

00:18:59.980 --> 00:19:00.960
 an angel

00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:01.759
 told me.

00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:04.200
 Well,

00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:04.440
 at the

00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:04.660
 very

00:19:04.660 --> 00:19:05.119
 least,

00:19:05.259 --> 00:19:05.539
 such

00:19:05.539 --> 00:19:06.019
 claims

00:19:06.019 --> 00:19:06.259
 of

00:19:06.259 --> 00:19:07.079
 so-called

00:19:07.079 --> 00:19:07.420
 new

00:19:07.420 --> 00:19:08.059
 revelation

00:19:08.059 --> 00:19:08.960
 need to

00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:09.440
 be checked

00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:09.960
 out with

00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:10.440
 God's

00:19:10.440 --> 00:19:11.180
 word itself.

00:19:11.619 --> 00:19:11.879
 Better

00:19:11.879 --> 00:19:12.359
 still,

00:19:12.599 --> 00:19:13.000
 somebody

00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:13.640
 come along

00:19:13.640 --> 00:19:13.920
 and they

00:19:13.920 --> 00:19:14.259
 tell you,

00:19:14.359 --> 00:19:14.859
 I've got a

00:19:14.859 --> 00:19:15.059
 new

00:19:15.059 --> 00:19:15.619
 revelation

00:19:15.619 --> 00:19:16.240
 for you.

00:19:16.359 --> 00:19:16.640
 It

00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:17.019
 should be

00:19:17.019 --> 00:19:17.379
 ignored

00:19:17.379 --> 00:19:18.140
 completely.

00:19:20.440 --> 00:19:21.000
 Sadly,

00:19:21.619 --> 00:19:22.319
 this young

00:19:22.319 --> 00:19:22.779
 prophet

00:19:22.779 --> 00:19:24.400
 never bothered

00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:25.420
 to check

00:19:25.420 --> 00:19:25.920
 it out.

00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:27.740
 So,

00:19:27.920 --> 00:19:28.480
 there was

00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:28.640
 the

00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:29.060
 command,

00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:29.560
 don't

00:19:29.560 --> 00:19:30.080
 go back

00:19:30.080 --> 00:19:30.480
 to the

00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:30.900
 house.

00:19:31.940 --> 00:19:32.380
 Second,

00:19:32.539 --> 00:19:32.660
 the

00:19:32.660 --> 00:19:33.440
 confrontation,

00:19:33.700 --> 00:19:34.300
 verse 20.

00:19:34.900 --> 00:19:35.200
 So,

00:19:35.360 --> 00:19:35.759
 while they

00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:36.259
 were sitting

00:19:36.259 --> 00:19:36.759
 down at

00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:37.300
 the table,

00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:38.580
 the word

00:19:38.580 --> 00:19:38.900
 of the

00:19:38.900 --> 00:19:39.200
 Lord,

00:19:39.500 --> 00:19:40.340
 the true

00:19:40.340 --> 00:19:41.000
 word of

00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:41.360
 the Lord,

00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:41.880
 came to

00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:42.660
 the old

00:19:42.660 --> 00:19:43.779
 prophet who

00:19:43.779 --> 00:19:44.279
 had brought

00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:44.680
 him back.

00:19:44.900 --> 00:19:45.240
 I mean,

00:19:45.300 --> 00:19:45.620
 what a

00:19:45.620 --> 00:19:46.080
 scenario.

00:19:46.320 --> 00:19:46.640
 What's

00:19:46.640 --> 00:19:47.140
 going on

00:19:47.140 --> 00:19:47.360
 here?

00:19:47.600 --> 00:19:48.039
 All this

00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:48.539
 talk of

00:19:48.539 --> 00:19:49.160
 angels and

00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:49.360
 new

00:19:49.360 --> 00:19:49.940
 revelation

00:19:49.940 --> 00:19:50.720
 is all

00:19:50.720 --> 00:19:50.980
 of a

00:19:50.980 --> 00:19:51.240
 sudden

00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:51.900
 slapped

00:19:51.900 --> 00:19:52.320
 on the

00:19:52.320 --> 00:19:52.560
 head,

00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:53.380
 verse 21.

00:19:53.800 --> 00:19:53.900
 He

00:19:53.900 --> 00:19:54.680
 cried out

00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:55.000
 to the

00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:55.380
 man of

00:19:55.380 --> 00:19:55.840
 God who

00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:56.199
 had come

00:19:56.199 --> 00:19:56.439
 from

00:19:56.439 --> 00:19:56.740
 Judah.

00:19:57.179 --> 00:19:57.639
 This

00:19:57.639 --> 00:19:58.179
 is what

00:19:58.179 --> 00:19:58.439
 the

00:19:58.439 --> 00:19:58.699
 Lord

00:19:58.699 --> 00:19:59.319
 says.

00:20:00.439 --> 00:20:00.859
 You

00:20:00.859 --> 00:20:01.179
 have

00:20:01.179 --> 00:20:02.019
 defied

00:20:02.019 --> 00:20:02.279
 the

00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:02.539
 word

00:20:02.539 --> 00:20:02.699
 of

00:20:02.699 --> 00:20:02.879
 the

00:20:02.879 --> 00:20:03.199
 Lord.

00:20:03.639 --> 00:20:03.919
 You

00:20:03.919 --> 00:20:04.179
 have

00:20:04.179 --> 00:20:04.639
 not

00:20:04.639 --> 00:20:05.000
 kept

00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:05.240
 the

00:20:05.240 --> 00:20:05.619
 command

00:20:05.619 --> 00:20:05.859
 the

00:20:05.859 --> 00:20:06.119
 Lord

00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:06.359
 your

00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:06.699
 God

00:20:06.699 --> 00:20:07.139
 gave

00:20:07.139 --> 00:20:07.480
 you.

00:20:08.379 --> 00:20:08.720
 The

00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:09.399
 clarity

00:20:09.399 --> 00:20:10.139
 of

00:20:10.139 --> 00:20:10.720
 God's

00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:11.159
 word

00:20:11.159 --> 00:20:12.480
 confronts

00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:12.939
 all

00:20:12.939 --> 00:20:13.179
 their

00:20:13.179 --> 00:20:14.220
 speculations,

00:20:14.399 --> 00:20:15.079
 verse 22.

00:20:15.500 --> 00:20:15.799
 You

00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:16.500
 came back

00:20:16.500 --> 00:20:17.039
 and ate

00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:17.419
 bread

00:20:17.419 --> 00:20:17.980
 and drank

00:20:17.980 --> 00:20:18.399
 water

00:20:18.399 --> 00:20:18.720
 in the

00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:19.059
 place

00:20:19.059 --> 00:20:19.259
 where

00:20:19.259 --> 00:20:19.419
 he

00:20:19.419 --> 00:20:19.779
 told

00:20:19.779 --> 00:20:19.980
 you

00:20:19.980 --> 00:20:20.399
 not

00:20:20.399 --> 00:20:20.679
 to

00:20:20.679 --> 00:20:20.919
 eat

00:20:20.919 --> 00:20:21.079
 or

00:20:21.079 --> 00:20:21.480
 drink.

00:20:22.679 --> 00:20:23.139
 Therefore

00:20:23.139 --> 00:20:23.539
 your

00:20:23.539 --> 00:20:23.919
 body

00:20:23.919 --> 00:20:24.480
 will not

00:20:24.480 --> 00:20:25.059
 be buried

00:20:25.059 --> 00:20:25.519
 in the

00:20:25.519 --> 00:20:25.879
 tomb

00:20:25.879 --> 00:20:26.700
 of your

00:20:26.700 --> 00:20:27.359
 ancestors.

00:20:28.460 --> 00:20:28.899
 In other

00:20:28.899 --> 00:20:29.259
 words,

00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:31.079
 this ain't

00:20:31.079 --> 00:20:31.440
 going to

00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:32.079
 end well.

00:20:33.279 --> 00:20:34.159
 You're not

00:20:34.159 --> 00:20:34.779
 even going to

00:20:34.779 --> 00:20:35.480
 make it home

00:20:35.480 --> 00:20:36.079
 alive.

00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:39.099
 It seems

00:20:39.099 --> 00:20:39.919
 to be that

00:20:39.919 --> 00:20:40.539
 this young

00:20:40.539 --> 00:20:41.019
 prophet

00:20:41.019 --> 00:20:42.819
 is suffering

00:20:42.819 --> 00:20:43.519
 with what

00:20:43.519 --> 00:20:44.179
 Paul had

00:20:44.179 --> 00:20:44.500
 warned

00:20:44.500 --> 00:20:45.419
 Timothy about.

00:20:45.419 --> 00:20:45.980
 Have a look

00:20:45.980 --> 00:20:46.659
 on the screen.

00:20:46.660 --> 00:20:47.160
 God

00:20:47.160 --> 00:20:48.259
 for the

00:20:48.259 --> 00:20:48.620
 time

00:20:48.620 --> 00:20:48.840
 will

00:20:48.840 --> 00:20:49.140
 come

00:20:49.140 --> 00:20:49.380
 when

00:20:49.380 --> 00:20:49.740
 people

00:20:52.820 --> 00:20:53.040
 They're

00:20:55.440 --> 00:20:55.620

00:20:55.620 --> 00:20:55.920
 say.

00:20:56.259 --> 00:20:56.600
 Instead,

00:21:01.360 --> 00:21:01.640
 to

 Itchy

00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:07.480
 ears.

00:21:08.980 --> 00:21:09.360
 Instead

00:21:09.360 --> 00:21:09.640
 of

00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:10.200
 obedience

00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:10.660
 to

00:21:10.660 --> 00:21:11.120
 God's

00:21:11.120 --> 00:21:11.420

00:21:11.420 --> 00:21:11.880
 word,

00:21:14.220 --> 00:21:14.880
 revelation,

00:21:15.339 --> 00:21:15.519
 a

00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:15.799
 new

00:21:15.799 --> 00:21:16.200
 word

00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:16.460
 that

00:21:16.460 --> 00:21:16.819
 fits

00:21:16.819 --> 00:21:17.019
 in

00:21:17.019 --> 00:21:17.200
 with

00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:17.440
 what

00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:17.839
 I

00:21:20.100 --> 00:21:20.380
 I

00:21:20.380 --> 00:21:20.759

00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:20.980

00:21:20.980 --> 00:21:21.200
 my

00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:21.579
 life.

00:21:22.539 --> 00:21:22.940
 Well,

00:21:22.980 --> 00:21:23.220
 let's

00:21:23.220 --> 00:21:23.460
 not

00:21:23.460 --> 00:21:23.819
 fool

00:21:23.819 --> 00:21:24.400
 ourselves.

00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:25.660
 God's

00:21:25.660 --> 00:21:25.920
 word

00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:26.180
 is

00:21:26.180 --> 00:21:26.759
 crystal

00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:27.180
 clear.

00:21:27.640 --> 00:21:27.860
 We

00:21:27.860 --> 00:21:28.100
 do

00:21:28.100 --> 00:21:28.319
 not

00:21:28.319 --> 00:21:28.559
 need

00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:28.759

00:21:28.759 --> 00:21:29.059
 add

00:21:29.059 --> 00:21:29.319
 to

00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:29.539
 it.

00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:29.960
 We

00:21:29.960 --> 00:21:30.180
 do

00:21:30.180 --> 00:21:30.400
 not

00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:30.600
 need

00:21:30.600 --> 00:21:30.779
 to

00:21:30.779 --> 00:21:31.240
 change

00:21:31.240 --> 00:21:31.519
 it

00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:32.039
 because

00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:32.440
 there

00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:32.640
 is

00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:33.100
 no

00:21:33.100 --> 00:21:33.940
 revelation

00:21:33.940 --> 00:21:34.620
 other

00:21:34.620 --> 00:21:35.339
 than

00:21:35.339 --> 00:21:35.620
 what

00:21:35.620 --> 00:21:36.019
 God

00:21:36.019 --> 00:21:36.259
 has

00:21:36.259 --> 00:21:36.799
 spoken

00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:37.559
 and

00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:37.779
 what

00:21:37.779 --> 00:21:38.079
 we

00:21:38.079 --> 00:21:38.380
 have

00:21:38.380 --> 00:21:38.680
 now

00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:39.180
 written

00:21:39.180 --> 00:21:40.120
 in

00:21:40.120 --> 00:21:40.600
 God's

00:21:40.600 --> 00:21:40.860
 word

00:21:40.860 --> 00:21:41.140

00:21:41.140 --> 00:21:41.380
 us

00:21:41.380 --> 00:21:41.880
 today.

00:21:41.880 --> 00:21:44.200
 So

00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:44.400
 there

00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:44.560
 was

00:21:44.560 --> 00:21:44.700

00:21:45.360 --> 00:21:45.920
 command

00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:47.500

00:21:47.500 --> 00:21:47.680
 there

00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:47.820
 was

00:21:47.820 --> 00:21:47.940
 a

00:21:47.940 --> 00:21:48.120
 very

00:21:48.120 --> 00:21:48.560
 clear

00:21:48.560 --> 00:21:49.520
 confrontation

00:21:49.520 --> 00:21:52.200
 and

00:21:52.200 --> 00:21:52.420
 then

00:21:52.420 --> 00:21:52.900
 third

00:21:52.900 --> 00:21:54.000
 the

00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:54.340
 clear

00:21:54.340 --> 00:21:55.320
 consequences

00:21:55.320 --> 00:21:56.940
 because

00:21:56.940 --> 00:21:58.040
 distorting

00:21:58.040 --> 00:21:59.300
 or

00:21:59.300 --> 00:21:59.980
 defying

00:21:59.980 --> 00:22:00.480
 God's

00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:00.900
 word

00:22:00.900 --> 00:22:01.940

00:22:01.940 --> 00:22:02.660
 terrible

00:22:02.660 --> 00:22:03.560
 consequences.

00:22:04.560 --> 00:22:05.280
 Verse

00:22:05.280 --> 00:22:05.960
 23

00:22:05.960 --> 00:22:08.200
 When

00:22:08.200 --> 00:22:08.360

00:22:08.360 --> 00:22:08.640

00:22:15.620 --> 00:22:15.920
 As

00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:48.160
 pass.

00:22:48.600 --> 00:22:48.900
 It

00:22:48.900 --> 00:22:49.640
 always

00:22:49.640 --> 00:22:50.779
 does.

00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:53.059
 Now

00:22:53.059 --> 00:22:53.240
 I'm

00:22:53.240 --> 00:22:53.500
 quite

00:22:53.500 --> 00:22:53.840
 sure

00:22:53.840 --> 00:22:54.160
 it's

00:22:54.160 --> 00:22:54.700
 confusing

00:22:54.700 --> 00:22:55.039
 you

00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:55.180
 and

00:22:55.180 --> 00:22:55.420
 it's

00:22:55.420 --> 00:22:55.779
 raising

00:22:55.779 --> 00:22:56.220
 lots

00:22:56.220 --> 00:22:56.420
 of

00:22:56.420 --> 00:22:56.980
 questions.

00:22:57.940 --> 00:22:58.519
 Just

00:22:58.519 --> 00:22:58.880
 like

00:22:58.880 --> 00:22:59.100
 we

00:22:59.100 --> 00:22:59.299
 can

00:22:59.299 --> 00:22:59.860
 sometimes

00:22:59.860 --> 00:23:00.519
 question

00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:01.160
 God's

00:23:01.160 --> 00:23:01.660
 commands

00:23:01.660 --> 00:23:03.539
 we

00:23:03.539 --> 00:23:03.759
 can

00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:04.079
 also

00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:04.559
 start

00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:05.279
 questioning

00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:05.660
 the

00:23:05.660 --> 00:23:06.660
 consequences

00:23:06.660 --> 00:23:07.000
 of

00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:07.960
 disobedience

00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:08.480
 and

00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:08.640
 we

00:23:08.640 --> 00:23:08.880
 could

00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:09.080
 look

00:23:09.080 --> 00:23:09.200
 at

00:23:09.200 --> 00:23:09.380
 this

00:23:09.380 --> 00:23:09.540
 and

00:23:09.540 --> 00:23:09.720
 go

00:23:09.720 --> 00:23:10.380
 it's

00:23:10.380 --> 00:23:10.700
 not

00:23:10.700 --> 00:23:11.300
 fair.

00:23:12.500 --> 00:23:13.100
 The

00:23:13.100 --> 00:23:13.440
 old

00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:13.940
 prophet

00:23:13.940 --> 00:23:14.540
 lied

00:23:14.540 --> 00:23:15.060
 to him

00:23:15.060 --> 00:23:15.279
 and

00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:15.759
 tricked

00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:16.120
 him.

00:23:17.140 --> 00:23:17.420
 He

00:23:17.420 --> 00:23:17.779
 told

00:23:17.779 --> 00:23:17.920
 him

00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:18.060
 it

00:23:18.060 --> 00:23:18.200
 was

00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:18.400
 an

00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:18.900
 angel

00:23:18.900 --> 00:23:19.340
 and

00:23:19.340 --> 00:23:19.500
 it

00:23:19.500 --> 00:23:20.120
 wasn't.

00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:20.740
 It's

00:23:20.740 --> 00:23:21.040
 not

00:23:21.040 --> 00:23:21.660
 fair.

00:23:23.380 --> 00:23:23.660
 Or

00:23:23.660 --> 00:23:23.860
 we

00:23:23.860 --> 00:23:24.080
 could

00:23:24.080 --> 00:23:24.500
 say

00:23:24.500 --> 00:23:25.920
 it's

00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:26.240
 too

00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:26.920
 severe

00:23:26.920 --> 00:23:27.600
 to

00:23:27.600 --> 00:23:27.840
 have

00:23:27.840 --> 00:23:28.019
 a

00:23:28.019 --> 00:23:28.279
 lion

00:23:28.279 --> 00:23:28.620
 kill

00:23:28.620 --> 00:23:28.779
 you.

00:23:29.080 --> 00:23:29.220
 The

00:23:29.220 --> 00:23:29.660
 punishment

00:23:29.660 --> 00:23:30.000
 is

00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:30.240
 too

00:23:30.240 --> 00:23:30.600
 severe.

00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:30.880
 He

00:23:30.880 --> 00:23:31.380
 should

00:23:31.380 --> 00:23:31.480
 have

00:23:31.480 --> 00:23:31.660
 been

00:23:31.660 --> 00:23:32.080
 warned

00:23:32.080 --> 00:23:32.279
 or

00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:32.500
 just

00:23:32.500 --> 00:23:32.740
 been

00:23:32.740 --> 00:23:33.160
 told

00:23:33.160 --> 00:23:33.620
 off.

00:23:33.619 --> 00:23:35.659
 And

00:23:35.659 --> 00:23:36.019
 so we

00:23:36.019 --> 00:23:36.199
 have

00:23:36.199 --> 00:23:36.419
 all

00:23:36.419 --> 00:23:36.639
 these

00:23:36.639 --> 00:23:37.319
 questions

00:23:37.319 --> 00:23:37.679
 going

00:23:37.679 --> 00:23:37.919
 on

00:23:37.919 --> 00:23:38.039
 in

00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:38.199
 our

00:23:38.199 --> 00:23:38.559
 minds.

00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:39.079
 Well

00:23:39.079 --> 00:23:39.339
 isn't

00:23:39.339 --> 00:23:39.519
 that

00:23:39.519 --> 00:23:40.019
 exactly

00:23:40.019 --> 00:23:40.299
 what

00:23:40.299 --> 00:23:40.479
 we

00:23:40.479 --> 00:23:40.719
 see

00:23:40.719 --> 00:23:41.159
 happening

00:23:41.159 --> 00:23:41.359
 in

00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:41.500
 the

00:23:41.500 --> 00:23:41.779
 Garden

00:23:41.779 --> 00:23:41.979
 of

00:23:41.979 --> 00:23:42.219
 Eden?

00:23:43.219 --> 00:23:43.819
 God's

00:23:43.819 --> 00:23:44.239
 command

00:23:44.239 --> 00:23:44.539
 was

00:23:44.539 --> 00:23:45.199
 crystal

00:23:45.199 --> 00:23:45.679
 clear.

00:23:46.979 --> 00:23:47.119
 Do

00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:47.439
 not

00:23:47.439 --> 00:23:47.719
 eat

00:23:47.719 --> 00:23:47.979
 the

00:23:47.979 --> 00:23:48.299
 fruit

00:23:48.299 --> 00:23:48.539
 from

00:23:48.539 --> 00:23:48.719
 the

00:23:48.719 --> 00:23:48.979
 tree

00:23:48.979 --> 00:23:49.139
 of

00:23:49.139 --> 00:23:49.279
 the

00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:49.639
 knowledge

00:23:49.639 --> 00:23:49.839
 of

00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:50.019
 good

00:23:50.019 --> 00:23:50.179
 and

00:23:50.179 --> 00:23:50.519
 evil

00:23:50.519 --> 00:23:51.339
 for

00:23:51.339 --> 00:23:51.699
 when

00:23:51.699 --> 00:23:51.959
 you

00:23:51.959 --> 00:23:52.279
 eat

00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:52.459
 of

00:23:52.459 --> 00:23:52.699
 it

00:23:52.699 --> 00:23:53.259
 you

00:23:53.259 --> 00:23:53.500
 will

00:23:53.500 --> 00:23:54.259
 certainly

00:23:54.259 --> 00:23:55.259
 die.

00:23:55.839 --> 00:23:56.019
 I

00:23:56.019 --> 00:23:56.199
 mean

00:23:56.199 --> 00:23:56.859
 what's

00:23:56.859 --> 00:23:57.319
 difficult

00:23:57.319 --> 00:23:57.679
 about

00:23:57.679 --> 00:23:58.379
 understanding

00:23:58.379 --> 00:23:58.719
 that?

00:23:58.959 --> 00:23:59.500
 Don't

00:23:59.500 --> 00:23:59.759
 eat

00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:00.059
 it

00:24:00.059 --> 00:24:00.539
 and

00:24:00.539 --> 00:24:00.720
 if

00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:00.899
 you

00:24:00.899 --> 00:24:01.220
 do

00:24:01.220 --> 00:24:01.779
 you

00:24:01.779 --> 00:24:01.960
 will

00:24:01.960 --> 00:24:02.379
 die.

00:24:03.099 --> 00:24:03.639
 Understood?

00:24:04.279 --> 00:24:04.639
 Crystal

00:24:04.639 --> 00:24:05.059
 clear.

00:24:05.940 --> 00:24:06.240
 Of

00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:06.639
 course

00:24:06.639 --> 00:24:07.460
 soon

00:24:07.460 --> 00:24:07.839
 after

00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:08.359
 came

00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:08.740
 a

00:24:08.740 --> 00:24:09.059
 new

00:24:09.059 --> 00:24:09.700
 revelation

00:24:09.700 --> 00:24:10.119
 didn't

00:24:10.119 --> 00:24:10.299
 it?

00:24:10.500 --> 00:24:10.720
 A

00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:11.019
 new

00:24:11.019 --> 00:24:11.799
 temptation

00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:13.099
 undermining

00:24:13.099 --> 00:24:13.659
 God's

00:24:13.659 --> 00:24:13.879
 clear

00:24:13.879 --> 00:24:14.220
 word.

00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:14.899
 Did

00:24:14.899 --> 00:24:15.299
 God

00:24:15.299 --> 00:24:15.839
 really

00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:16.259
 say?

00:24:17.259 --> 00:24:17.659
 Did

00:24:17.659 --> 00:24:17.960
 God

00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:18.440
 really

00:24:18.440 --> 00:24:18.779
 say

00:24:18.779 --> 00:24:19.179
 that?

00:24:20.359 --> 00:24:20.579
 I

00:24:20.579 --> 00:24:20.799
 mean

00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:21.720
 let me

00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:22.099
 tell you

00:24:22.099 --> 00:24:22.460
 something

00:24:22.460 --> 00:24:22.879
 else.

00:24:23.460 --> 00:24:23.679
 You

00:24:23.679 --> 00:24:24.000
 won't

00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:24.440
 really

00:24:24.440 --> 00:24:24.919
 die

00:24:24.919 --> 00:24:25.259
 if

00:24:25.259 --> 00:24:25.419
 you

00:24:25.419 --> 00:24:25.659
 eat

00:24:25.659 --> 00:24:25.960
 it.

00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:28.019
 And

00:24:28.019 --> 00:24:28.179
 then

00:24:28.179 --> 00:24:28.700
 the blame

00:24:28.700 --> 00:24:29.039
 game

00:24:29.039 --> 00:24:29.679
 starts.

00:24:29.680 --> 00:24:30.299
 It's

00:24:30.299 --> 00:24:30.620
 not

00:24:30.620 --> 00:24:31.200
 fair.

00:24:31.519 --> 00:24:31.660
 The

00:24:31.660 --> 00:24:31.960
 woman

00:24:31.960 --> 00:24:32.340
 said

00:24:32.340 --> 00:24:32.539
 I

00:24:32.539 --> 00:24:32.740
 could

00:24:32.740 --> 00:24:33.000
 eat

00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:33.320
 it.

00:24:33.779 --> 00:24:34.380
 The

00:24:34.380 --> 00:24:34.799
 devil

00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:35.480
 deceived

00:24:35.480 --> 00:24:35.860
 me.

00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:37.980
 You

00:24:37.980 --> 00:24:38.120
 see

00:24:38.120 --> 00:24:38.299
 the

00:24:38.299 --> 00:24:38.660
 problem

00:24:38.660 --> 00:24:39.120
 is

00:24:39.120 --> 00:24:40.160
 it's

00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:40.420
 not

00:24:40.420 --> 00:24:40.940
 God's

00:24:40.940 --> 00:24:41.220
 word.

00:24:41.360 --> 00:24:41.640
 That's

00:24:41.640 --> 00:24:41.820
 not

00:24:41.820 --> 00:24:42.039
 the

00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:42.480
 problem.

00:24:43.180 --> 00:24:43.420
 The

00:24:43.420 --> 00:24:43.759
 problem

00:24:43.759 --> 00:24:44.019
 is

00:24:44.019 --> 00:24:44.200
 our

00:24:44.200 --> 00:24:44.779
 questioning

00:24:44.779 --> 00:24:45.080
 and

00:24:45.080 --> 00:24:45.460
 twisting

00:24:45.460 --> 00:24:45.740
 of

00:24:45.740 --> 00:24:45.900
 the

00:24:45.900 --> 00:24:46.120
 very

00:24:46.120 --> 00:24:46.539
 clear

00:24:46.539 --> 00:24:46.960
 truth

00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:47.140
 of

00:24:47.140 --> 00:24:47.519
 God's

00:24:47.519 --> 00:24:47.860
 word.

00:24:48.400 --> 00:24:48.720
 Verse

00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:49.500
 26

00:24:49.500 --> 00:24:51.240
 When

00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:51.440
 the

00:24:51.440 --> 00:24:51.779
 prophet

00:24:51.779 --> 00:24:52.080
 who

00:24:52.080 --> 00:24:52.259
 had

00:24:52.259 --> 00:24:52.560
 brought

00:24:52.560 --> 00:24:52.740
 him

00:24:52.740 --> 00:24:53.019
 back

00:24:53.019 --> 00:24:53.240
 from

00:24:53.240 --> 00:24:53.420
 his

00:24:53.420 --> 00:24:53.759
 journey

00:24:53.759 --> 00:24:54.160
 heard

00:24:54.160 --> 00:24:54.340
 of

00:24:54.340 --> 00:24:54.539
 what

00:24:54.539 --> 00:24:54.680
 had

00:24:54.680 --> 00:24:55.039
 happened

00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:55.539
 he

00:24:55.539 --> 00:24:55.900
 said

00:24:55.900 --> 00:24:56.440
 it

00:24:56.440 --> 00:24:56.660
 is

00:24:56.660 --> 00:24:56.840
 the

00:24:56.840 --> 00:24:57.160
 man

00:24:57.160 --> 00:24:57.340
 of

00:24:57.340 --> 00:24:57.720
 God

00:24:57.720 --> 00:24:58.320
 who

00:24:58.320 --> 00:24:59.299
 defied

00:24:59.680 --> 00:24:59.779
 the

00:24:59.779 --> 00:25:00.220
 word

00:25:00.220 --> 00:25:00.740
 of

00:25:00.740 --> 00:25:00.940
 the

00:25:00.940 --> 00:25:01.299
 Lord.

00:25:02.240 --> 00:25:02.700
 The

00:25:02.700 --> 00:25:02.980
 Lord

00:25:02.980 --> 00:25:03.220
 has

00:25:03.220 --> 00:25:03.480
 given

00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:03.700
 him

00:25:03.700 --> 00:25:03.980
 over

00:25:03.980 --> 00:25:04.200
 to

00:25:04.200 --> 00:25:04.360
 the

00:25:04.360 --> 00:25:04.640
 lion

00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:04.920
 which

00:25:04.920 --> 00:25:05.140
 has

00:25:05.140 --> 00:25:05.460
 mauled

00:25:05.460 --> 00:25:05.620
 him

00:25:05.620 --> 00:25:05.799
 and

00:25:05.799 --> 00:25:06.080
 killed

00:25:06.080 --> 00:25:06.400
 him

00:25:06.400 --> 00:25:07.320
 as

00:25:07.320 --> 00:25:07.620
 the

00:25:07.620 --> 00:25:08.060
 word

00:25:08.060 --> 00:25:08.240
 of

00:25:08.240 --> 00:25:08.460
 the

00:25:08.460 --> 00:25:08.840
 Lord

00:25:08.840 --> 00:25:09.420
 had

00:25:09.420 --> 00:25:09.920
 warned

00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:10.360
 him.

00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:13.140
 You

00:25:13.140 --> 00:25:13.460
 see

00:25:13.460 --> 00:25:15.380
 how we

00:25:15.380 --> 00:25:15.920
 respond

00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:16.180
 to

00:25:16.180 --> 00:25:16.600
 God's

00:25:16.600 --> 00:25:16.900
 word

00:25:16.900 --> 00:25:17.340
 is

00:25:17.340 --> 00:25:18.080
 deeply

00:25:18.080 --> 00:25:19.539
 serious.

00:25:20.460 --> 00:25:20.900
 To

00:25:20.900 --> 00:25:21.539
 defy

00:25:21.539 --> 00:25:22.120
 God's

00:25:22.120 --> 00:25:22.560
 word

00:25:22.560 --> 00:25:24.240
 is to

00:25:24.240 --> 00:25:24.860
 defy

00:25:24.860 --> 00:25:25.440
 God

00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:26.120
 himself.

00:25:27.860 --> 00:25:28.180
 And

00:25:28.180 --> 00:25:28.500
 if we

00:25:28.500 --> 00:25:28.980
 continue

00:25:28.980 --> 00:25:29.279
 to

00:25:29.279 --> 00:25:29.880
 persist

00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:30.660
 in

00:25:30.660 --> 00:25:31.360
 defiance

00:25:31.360 --> 00:25:31.779
 against

00:25:31.779 --> 00:25:32.259
 God's

00:25:32.259 --> 00:25:32.620
 word

00:25:32.620 --> 00:25:33.779
 judgment

00:25:33.779 --> 00:25:34.660
 will

00:25:34.660 --> 00:25:35.319
 come.

00:25:36.319 --> 00:25:36.680
 We

00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:36.920
 might

00:25:36.920 --> 00:25:37.140
 not

00:25:37.140 --> 00:25:37.480
 face

00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:37.660
 a

00:25:37.660 --> 00:25:37.960
 lion

00:25:37.960 --> 00:25:39.660
 but

00:25:39.660 --> 00:25:39.900
 one

00:25:39.900 --> 00:25:40.079
 day

00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:40.259
 we

00:25:40.259 --> 00:25:40.480
 will

00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:40.700
 all

00:25:40.700 --> 00:25:41.039
 die

00:25:41.039 --> 00:25:42.440
 and

00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:42.559
 we

00:25:42.559 --> 00:25:42.759
 will

00:25:42.759 --> 00:25:43.000
 all

00:25:43.000 --> 00:25:43.339
 stand

00:25:43.339 --> 00:25:43.740
 before

00:25:43.740 --> 00:25:44.240
 God

00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:45.440
 and

00:25:45.440 --> 00:25:45.660
 have

00:25:45.660 --> 00:25:45.819
 to

00:25:45.819 --> 00:25:46.000
 give

00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:46.120
 an

00:25:46.120 --> 00:25:46.620
 account.

00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:48.539
 So

00:25:48.539 --> 00:25:48.920
 hear

00:25:48.920 --> 00:25:49.940
 the

00:25:49.940 --> 00:25:50.440
 clarity

00:25:50.440 --> 00:25:51.519
 of

00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:51.960
 God's

00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:52.299
 word.

00:25:54.880 --> 00:25:55.700
 Third

00:25:55.700 --> 00:25:57.940
 experience

00:25:57.940 --> 00:25:58.440
 the

00:25:58.440 --> 00:25:58.900
 grace

00:25:58.900 --> 00:26:00.019
 of

00:26:00.019 --> 00:26:00.460
 God's

00:26:00.460 --> 00:26:00.799
 word.

00:26:02.039 --> 00:26:02.720
 Let's

00:26:02.720 --> 00:26:03.880
 look at

00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:04.240
 how

00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:04.799
 God's

00:26:04.799 --> 00:26:05.279
 grace

00:26:05.279 --> 00:26:06.140
 comes

00:26:06.140 --> 00:26:06.400
 to

00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:06.580
 the

00:26:06.580 --> 00:26:06.819
 old

00:26:06.819 --> 00:26:07.240
 prophet.

00:26:07.460 --> 00:26:07.640
 So

00:26:07.640 --> 00:26:08.380
 the

00:26:08.380 --> 00:26:08.640
 word

00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:08.819
 had

00:26:08.819 --> 00:26:09.019
 come

00:26:09.019 --> 00:26:09.240
 to

00:26:09.240 --> 00:26:09.880
 Jeroboam

00:26:09.880 --> 00:26:10.160
 at the

00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:10.500
 beginning.

00:26:11.340 --> 00:26:11.700
 The

00:26:11.700 --> 00:26:11.980
 word

00:26:11.980 --> 00:26:12.420
 comes

00:26:12.420 --> 00:26:12.759
 to

00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:13.660
 the

00:26:13.660 --> 00:26:13.940
 young

00:26:13.940 --> 00:26:14.340
 prophet

00:26:14.340 --> 00:26:15.340
 and

00:26:15.340 --> 00:26:15.880
 now

00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:17.240
 God's

00:26:17.240 --> 00:26:17.620
 grace

00:26:17.620 --> 00:26:18.580
 comes

00:26:18.580 --> 00:26:18.860
 to

00:26:18.860 --> 00:26:19.120
 the

00:26:19.120 --> 00:26:19.580
 old

00:26:19.580 --> 00:26:20.080
 prophet.

00:26:20.539 --> 00:26:20.900
 Three

00:26:20.900 --> 00:26:21.420
 things we

00:26:21.420 --> 00:26:21.920
 see here.

00:26:22.059 --> 00:26:22.340
 First

00:26:22.339 --> 00:26:22.699
 look at

00:26:22.699 --> 00:26:22.839
 the

00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:23.199
 mercy.

00:26:24.199 --> 00:26:24.679
 The

00:26:24.679 --> 00:26:24.980
 old

00:26:24.980 --> 00:26:25.399
 prophet

00:26:25.399 --> 00:26:26.139
 decides

00:26:26.139 --> 00:26:26.379
 to

00:26:26.379 --> 00:26:26.579
 go

00:26:26.579 --> 00:26:26.839
 out

00:26:26.839 --> 00:26:27.039
 to

00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:27.399
 see

00:26:27.399 --> 00:26:27.980
 what

00:26:27.980 --> 00:26:28.159
 has

00:26:28.159 --> 00:26:28.439
 happened.

00:26:28.579 --> 00:26:28.799
 He's

00:26:28.799 --> 00:26:29.119
 heard

00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:29.419
 about

00:26:29.419 --> 00:26:29.619
 the

00:26:29.619 --> 00:26:29.859
 young

00:26:29.859 --> 00:26:30.220
 prophet

00:26:30.220 --> 00:26:30.579
 who's

00:26:30.579 --> 00:26:30.759
 been

00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:31.179
 attacked

00:26:31.179 --> 00:26:31.459
 by

00:26:31.459 --> 00:26:31.639
 the

00:26:31.639 --> 00:26:31.939
 lion.

00:26:32.740 --> 00:26:32.839
 And

00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:33.159
 so

00:26:33.159 --> 00:26:33.459
 verse

00:26:33.459 --> 00:26:34.159
 28

00:26:34.159 --> 00:26:35.359
 then

00:26:35.359 --> 00:26:35.519
 he

00:26:35.519 --> 00:26:35.839
 went

00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:36.220
 out

00:26:36.220 --> 00:26:36.579
 and

00:26:36.579 --> 00:26:36.879
 found

00:26:36.879 --> 00:26:37.079
 the

00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:37.459
 body

00:26:37.459 --> 00:26:37.959
 lying

00:26:37.959 --> 00:26:38.179
 on

00:26:38.179 --> 00:26:38.319
 the

00:26:38.319 --> 00:26:38.699
 road

00:26:38.699 --> 00:26:39.319
 with

00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:39.500
 the

00:26:39.500 --> 00:26:39.899
 donkey

00:26:39.899 --> 00:26:40.339
 and

00:26:40.339 --> 00:26:40.519
 the

00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:40.919
 lion

00:26:40.919 --> 00:26:41.539
 standing

00:26:41.539 --> 00:26:42.079
 beside

00:26:42.079 --> 00:26:42.419
 it.

00:26:43.199 --> 00:26:43.439
 The

00:26:43.439 --> 00:26:43.899
 lion

00:26:43.899 --> 00:26:44.720
 had

00:26:44.720 --> 00:26:45.079
 neither

00:26:45.079 --> 00:26:45.539
 eaten

00:26:45.539 --> 00:26:45.799
 the

00:26:45.799 --> 00:26:46.199
 body

00:26:46.199 --> 00:26:47.059
 nor

00:26:47.059 --> 00:26:47.639
 mauled

00:26:47.639 --> 00:26:48.179
 the

00:26:48.179 --> 00:26:48.559
 donkey.

00:26:50.299 --> 00:26:50.980
 Now

00:26:50.980 --> 00:26:51.279
 you've

00:26:51.279 --> 00:26:51.559
 watched

00:26:51.559 --> 00:26:51.940
 David

00:26:51.940 --> 00:26:52.399
 Attenborough

00:26:52.399 --> 00:26:52.740
 haven't

00:26:52.740 --> 00:26:52.919
 you?

00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:53.980
 I

00:26:53.980 --> 00:26:54.119
 mean

00:26:54.119 --> 00:26:54.319
 this

00:26:54.319 --> 00:26:54.480
 is

00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:55.139
 extraordinary.

00:26:56.179 --> 00:26:56.599
 Lions

00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:57.139
 don't

00:26:57.139 --> 00:26:57.579
 stand

00:26:57.579 --> 00:26:58.179
 still

00:26:58.179 --> 00:26:58.919
 and

00:26:58.919 --> 00:26:59.279
 look

00:26:59.279 --> 00:26:59.440
 at

00:26:59.440 --> 00:26:59.619
 their

00:26:59.619 --> 00:26:59.919
 dinner

00:26:59.919 --> 00:27:00.179
 when

00:27:00.179 --> 00:27:00.379
 it's

00:27:00.379 --> 00:27:00.619
 ready

00:27:00.619 --> 00:27:00.819
 to

00:27:00.819 --> 00:27:01.000
 be

00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:01.339
 eaten

00:27:01.339 --> 00:27:01.579
 do

00:27:01.579 --> 00:27:01.799
 they?

00:27:02.259 --> 00:27:02.500
 They

00:27:02.500 --> 00:27:02.779
 get

00:27:02.779 --> 00:27:03.200
 stuck

00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:03.519
 in.

00:27:04.659 --> 00:27:05.299
 But

00:27:05.299 --> 00:27:05.559
 not

00:27:05.559 --> 00:27:05.879
 this

00:27:05.879 --> 00:27:06.299
 lion.

00:27:07.179 --> 00:27:07.379
 He

00:27:07.379 --> 00:27:07.679
 just

00:27:07.679 --> 00:27:08.379
 kills

00:27:08.379 --> 00:27:08.639
 the

00:27:08.639 --> 00:27:08.960
 man

00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:10.079
 leaves

00:27:10.079 --> 00:27:10.379
 the

00:27:10.379 --> 00:27:10.759
 body

00:27:10.759 --> 00:27:11.679
 and

00:27:11.679 --> 00:27:11.960
 doesn't

00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:12.159
 even

00:27:12.159 --> 00:27:12.379
 go

00:27:12.379 --> 00:27:12.599
 near

00:27:12.599 --> 00:27:12.799
 the

00:27:12.799 --> 00:27:13.200
 donkey

00:27:13.200 --> 00:27:13.819
 who's

00:27:13.819 --> 00:27:14.279
 prey.

00:27:16.619 --> 00:27:17.259
 This

00:27:17.259 --> 00:27:17.859
 lion

00:27:17.859 --> 00:27:18.799
 is

00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:19.039
 under

00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:19.319
 the

00:27:19.319 --> 00:27:19.960
 authority

00:27:19.960 --> 00:27:20.480
 of

00:27:20.480 --> 00:27:20.940
 God's

00:27:20.940 --> 00:27:21.240
 word.

00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:22.700
 God's

00:27:22.700 --> 00:27:22.960
 doing.

00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:25.420
 But

00:27:25.420 --> 00:27:26.000
 perhaps

00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:27.319
 it's

00:27:27.319 --> 00:27:27.559
 what

00:27:27.559 --> 00:27:27.900
 does

00:27:27.900 --> 00:27:28.319
 not

00:27:28.319 --> 00:27:28.859
 happen

00:27:28.859 --> 00:27:29.900
 that

00:27:29.900 --> 00:27:30.140
 should

00:27:30.140 --> 00:27:30.440
 take

00:27:30.440 --> 00:27:30.599
 us

00:27:30.599 --> 00:27:30.819
 by

00:27:30.819 --> 00:27:31.220
 most

00:27:31.220 --> 00:27:31.960
 surprise.

00:27:32.420 --> 00:27:32.700
 It's

00:27:32.700 --> 00:27:32.960
 what

00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:33.620
 doesn't

00:27:33.620 --> 00:27:34.079
 happen

00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:35.279
 that

00:27:35.279 --> 00:27:35.440
 is

00:27:35.440 --> 00:27:35.620
 a

00:27:35.620 --> 00:27:36.000
 shock.

00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:37.039
 Remember

00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:37.660
 this old

00:27:37.660 --> 00:27:38.000
 prophet,

00:27:38.339 --> 00:27:38.759
 he's

00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:39.099
 the one

00:27:39.099 --> 00:27:39.319
 who

00:27:39.319 --> 00:27:39.920
 lied.

00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:40.559
 He

00:27:40.559 --> 00:27:40.980
 said,

00:27:41.339 --> 00:27:41.500
 an

00:27:41.500 --> 00:27:41.920
 angel

00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:42.359
 told

00:27:42.359 --> 00:27:42.660
 me.

00:27:43.759 --> 00:27:44.079
 He

00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:44.819
 defied

00:27:44.819 --> 00:27:45.319
 God's

00:27:45.319 --> 00:27:45.559
 word.

00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:46.000
 We

00:27:46.000 --> 00:27:46.180
 could

00:27:46.180 --> 00:27:46.400
 even

00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:46.799
 make a

00:27:46.799 --> 00:27:47.019
 claim

00:27:47.019 --> 00:27:47.319
 and say

00:27:47.319 --> 00:27:47.640
 he was

00:27:47.640 --> 00:27:47.940
 worse

00:27:47.940 --> 00:27:48.339
 than the

00:27:48.339 --> 00:27:48.620
 younger

00:27:48.620 --> 00:27:49.039
 prophet.

00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:49.519
 I

00:27:49.519 --> 00:27:49.700
 mean

00:27:49.700 --> 00:27:50.000
 what

00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:50.200
 should

00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:50.399
 we

00:27:50.399 --> 00:27:50.740
 expect

00:27:50.740 --> 00:27:50.940
 to

00:27:50.940 --> 00:27:51.200
 happen

00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:51.779
 next

00:27:51.779 --> 00:27:52.559
 but

00:27:52.559 --> 00:27:52.740
 for

00:27:52.740 --> 00:27:52.899
 the

00:27:52.899 --> 00:27:53.159
 lion

00:27:53.159 --> 00:27:53.379
 to

00:27:53.379 --> 00:27:53.720
 pounce

00:27:53.720 --> 00:27:53.940
 and

00:27:53.940 --> 00:27:54.200
 jump

00:27:54.200 --> 00:27:54.420
 on

00:27:54.420 --> 00:27:54.740
 him.

00:27:54.740 --> 00:27:56.799
 But

00:27:56.799 --> 00:27:56.980
 the

00:27:56.980 --> 00:27:57.259
 lion

00:27:57.259 --> 00:27:57.559
 does

00:27:57.559 --> 00:27:58.079
 nothing.

00:27:59.220 --> 00:27:59.799
 By

00:27:59.799 --> 00:28:00.019
 a

00:28:00.019 --> 00:28:00.399
 word

00:28:00.399 --> 00:28:00.759
 of

00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:01.399
 mercy,

00:28:02.339 --> 00:28:03.139
 God

00:28:03.139 --> 00:28:03.619
 keeps

00:28:03.619 --> 00:28:03.899
 his

00:28:03.899 --> 00:28:04.399
 judgment

00:28:04.399 --> 00:28:05.259
 in

00:28:05.259 --> 00:28:05.740
 check.

00:28:06.500 --> 00:28:07.099
 Nothing

00:28:07.099 --> 00:28:07.599
 happens

00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:08.059
 to him.

00:28:09.019 --> 00:28:09.879
 Verse 29,

00:28:09.880 --> 00:28:11.240
 So the

00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:11.660
 prophet

00:28:11.660 --> 00:28:12.460
 picked up

00:28:12.460 --> 00:28:12.640
 the

00:28:12.640 --> 00:28:12.980
 body

00:28:12.980 --> 00:28:13.300
 of

00:28:13.300 --> 00:28:13.480
 the

00:28:13.480 --> 00:28:13.800
 man

00:28:13.800 --> 00:28:13.980
 of

00:28:13.980 --> 00:28:14.380
 God,

00:28:14.920 --> 00:28:15.560
 laid

00:28:15.560 --> 00:28:15.720
 it

00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:15.880
 on

00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:16.040
 the

00:28:16.040 --> 00:28:16.440
 donkey

00:28:16.440 --> 00:28:17.460
 and

00:28:17.460 --> 00:28:17.800
 brought

00:28:17.800 --> 00:28:17.980
 it

00:28:17.980 --> 00:28:18.220
 back

00:28:18.220 --> 00:28:18.420
 to

00:28:18.420 --> 00:28:18.600
 his

00:28:18.600 --> 00:28:18.820
 own

00:28:18.820 --> 00:28:19.160
 city

00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:19.440
 to

00:28:19.440 --> 00:28:19.780
 mourn

00:28:19.780 --> 00:28:20.000
 for

00:28:20.000 --> 00:28:20.300
 him

00:28:20.300 --> 00:28:21.280
 and

00:28:21.280 --> 00:28:21.600
 bury

00:28:21.600 --> 00:28:21.940
 him.

00:28:23.020 --> 00:28:23.260
 Are

00:28:23.260 --> 00:28:23.440
 you

00:28:23.440 --> 00:28:24.000
 shocked

00:28:24.000 --> 00:28:25.600
 at

00:28:25.600 --> 00:28:25.880
 the

00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:26.360
 mercy

00:28:26.360 --> 00:28:26.940
 of

00:28:26.940 --> 00:28:27.360
 God?

00:28:30.580 --> 00:28:31.200
 But

00:28:31.200 --> 00:28:31.360
 there's

00:28:31.360 --> 00:28:31.800
 not just

00:28:31.800 --> 00:28:32.220
 mercy.

00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:32.540
 Look

00:28:32.540 --> 00:28:32.800
 at the

00:28:32.800 --> 00:28:33.360
 evidence.

00:28:34.180 --> 00:28:34.380
 It

00:28:34.380 --> 00:28:34.800
 seems

00:28:34.800 --> 00:28:35.100
 that

00:28:35.100 --> 00:28:35.320
 this

00:28:35.320 --> 00:28:35.600
 old

00:28:35.600 --> 00:28:35.980
 prophet

00:28:35.980 --> 00:28:36.320
 has

00:28:36.320 --> 00:28:36.680
 begun

00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:36.920
 to

00:28:36.920 --> 00:28:37.120
 have

00:28:37.120 --> 00:28:37.280
 a

00:28:37.280 --> 00:28:37.480
 new

00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:38.300
 appreciation

00:28:38.300 --> 00:28:38.680
 for

00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:39.140
 God's

00:28:39.140 --> 00:28:39.420
 word.

00:28:39.880 --> 00:28:40.520
 The

00:28:40.520 --> 00:28:41.120
 evidence

00:28:41.120 --> 00:28:41.360
 of

00:28:41.360 --> 00:28:41.760
 God's

00:28:41.760 --> 00:28:42.280
 powerful

00:28:42.280 --> 00:28:42.700
 word

00:28:42.700 --> 00:28:42.960
 was

00:28:42.960 --> 00:28:43.420
 clear

00:28:43.420 --> 00:28:44.480
 and

00:28:44.480 --> 00:28:44.620
 it

00:28:44.620 --> 00:28:44.760
 has

00:28:44.760 --> 00:28:45.020
 now

00:28:45.020 --> 00:28:45.340
 given

00:28:45.340 --> 00:28:45.580
 him

00:28:45.580 --> 00:28:45.760
 a

00:28:45.760 --> 00:28:46.020
 new

00:28:46.020 --> 00:28:46.840
 understanding.

00:28:47.420 --> 00:28:47.520
 So

00:28:47.520 --> 00:28:47.720
 he

00:28:47.720 --> 00:28:48.060
 now

00:28:48.060 --> 00:28:49.140
 confidently

00:28:49.140 --> 00:28:49.940
 declares

00:28:49.940 --> 00:28:50.800
 in

00:28:50.800 --> 00:28:51.080
 verse

00:28:51.080 --> 00:28:51.720
 32,

00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:53.240
 For

00:28:53.240 --> 00:28:53.460
 the

00:28:53.460 --> 00:28:54.100
 message

00:28:54.100 --> 00:28:55.100
 he

00:28:55.100 --> 00:28:55.400
 that

00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:55.600
 is

00:28:55.600 --> 00:28:55.820
 the

00:28:55.820 --> 00:28:56.360
 prophet

00:28:56.360 --> 00:28:57.060
 declared

00:28:57.060 --> 00:28:57.440
 by

00:28:57.440 --> 00:28:57.700
 the

00:28:57.700 --> 00:28:58.020
 word

00:28:58.020 --> 00:28:58.200
 of

00:28:58.200 --> 00:28:58.360
 the

00:28:58.360 --> 00:28:58.620
 Lord

00:28:58.620 --> 00:28:59.060
 against

00:28:59.060 --> 00:28:59.320
 the

00:28:59.320 --> 00:28:59.660
 altar

00:28:59.660 --> 00:28:59.940
 in

00:28:59.940 --> 00:29:00.320
 Bethel

00:29:00.320 --> 00:29:00.460
 and

00:29:00.460 --> 00:29:00.780
 against

00:29:00.780 --> 00:29:01.120
 all

00:29:01.120 --> 00:29:01.280
 the

00:29:01.280 --> 00:29:01.680
 shrines

00:29:01.680 --> 00:29:01.860
 on

00:29:01.860 --> 00:29:01.980
 the

00:29:01.980 --> 00:29:02.220
 high

00:29:02.220 --> 00:29:02.680
 places

00:29:02.680 --> 00:29:03.180
 in

00:29:03.180 --> 00:29:03.360
 the

00:29:03.360 --> 00:29:03.680
 towns

00:29:03.680 --> 00:29:03.860
 of

00:29:03.860 --> 00:29:04.340
 Samaria

00:29:04.340 --> 00:29:04.980
 will

00:29:04.980 --> 00:29:05.660
 certainly

00:29:05.660 --> 00:29:06.420
 come

00:29:06.420 --> 00:29:07.240
 true.

00:29:08.560 --> 00:29:09.220
 He

00:29:09.220 --> 00:29:09.539
 now

00:29:09.539 --> 00:29:10.100
 believes

00:29:10.100 --> 00:29:10.299
 that

00:29:10.299 --> 00:29:10.519
 when

00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:10.960
 God

00:29:10.960 --> 00:29:11.319
 says

00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:11.860
 something

00:29:11.860 --> 00:29:12.600
 it's

00:29:12.600 --> 00:29:12.860
 going

00:29:12.860 --> 00:29:13.100
 to

00:29:13.100 --> 00:29:13.480
 happen

00:29:13.480 --> 00:29:14.019
 and

00:29:14.019 --> 00:29:14.160
 you

00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:14.600
 don't

00:29:14.600 --> 00:29:15.140
 defy

00:29:15.140 --> 00:29:15.600
 God's

00:29:15.600 --> 00:29:15.819
 word

00:29:15.819 --> 00:29:16.039
 you

00:29:16.039 --> 00:29:16.460
 obey

00:29:16.460 --> 00:29:16.960
 God's

00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:17.299
 word.

00:29:18.660 --> 00:29:18.980
 And so

00:29:18.980 --> 00:29:19.220
 he

00:29:19.220 --> 00:29:19.759
 declares

00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:20.839
 the

00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:21.460
 message

00:29:21.460 --> 00:29:22.100
 declared

00:29:22.100 --> 00:29:22.660

00:29:22.660 --> 00:29:22.920

00:29:22.920 --> 00:29:23.259
 of the

00:29:23.259 --> 00:29:23.559
 Lord

00:29:23.559 --> 00:29:23.799
 will

00:29:23.799 --> 00:29:24.360
 certainly

00:29:24.360 --> 00:29:24.940
 come

00:29:24.940 --> 00:29:25.819
 true.

00:29:26.360 --> 00:29:26.880
 What

00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:27.259
 God

00:29:27.259 --> 00:29:27.620
 says

00:29:27.620 --> 00:29:27.839

00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:28.299
 happen

00:29:28.299 --> 00:29:29.380

00:29:29.380 --> 00:29:29.860
 happen.

00:29:29.859 --> 00:29:32.199
 Now

00:29:32.199 --> 00:29:32.399
 we

00:29:32.399 --> 00:29:32.659
 only

00:29:32.659 --> 00:29:32.959
 need

00:29:35.119 --> 00:29:35.359

00:30:32.099 --> 00:30:32.339

00:30:37.740 --> 00:30:37.940
 In

00:30:37.940 --> 00:30:38.559
 accordance

00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:39.019
 with

00:30:46.680 --> 00:30:47.240
 Now

00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:47.819
 that's

00:30:47.819 --> 00:30:48.539

00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:51.700
 God's

00:30:51.700 --> 00:30:52.339

 When

00:31:04.119 --> 00:31:04.339
 You

00:31:04.339 --> 00:31:04.519
