00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.740
 Christ is our hope in life and death.

00:00:09.620 --> 00:00:16.160
 And that was the refrain that we sang right before this time of the word.

00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:22.679
! We're going to look in the scriptures this morning and I would encourage you to turn there with me in John chapter 12.

00:00:23.260 --> 00:00:24.260
 John chapter 12.

00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:27.980
 If you're using the Pew Bible, it's on page 898.

00:00:28.980 --> 00:00:34.259
 We're going to see through the course of this passage kind of the outworking of that truth.

00:00:34.380 --> 00:00:37.240
 Jesus Christ, our hope in life and death.

00:00:37.340 --> 00:00:38.079
 What does that mean?

00:00:38.780 --> 00:00:40.719
 What does he offer to us?

00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:46.820
 Are those empty promises or is Jesus in fact the one who makes it all possible?

00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:53.159
 Well, Jesus will have made a statement right before our passage in John chapter 11

00:00:53.159 --> 00:01:04.560
 where he'll raise Lazarus from the dead and he will claim both to Martha and to Mary that I am the resurrection and the life.

00:01:05.899 --> 00:01:08.879
 Jesus is our hope for life and death.

00:01:09.679 --> 00:01:12.120
 And we celebrate that through the triumphal entry.

00:01:12.299 --> 00:01:15.299
 We celebrate that now in Palm Sunday.

00:01:15.299 --> 00:01:23.280
 But I imagine that as you think about Palm Sunday, and I'm thinking back to my childhood and Sunday school classes,

00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:26.099
 we were all given those palm branches, right?

00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:29.519
 That we would wave as kind of a celebration sign.

00:01:29.739 --> 00:01:32.280
 We're recognizing that Jesus is the king.

00:01:32.579 --> 00:01:34.400
 And so we wave those palm branches.

00:01:34.500 --> 00:01:38.539
 Just a fun way to remember this special Palm Sunday.

00:01:39.539 --> 00:01:42.060
 Well, Jesus did come into Jerusalem.

00:01:42.060 --> 00:01:43.900
 He did ride in on a donkey.

00:01:43.900 --> 00:01:50.100
 He was making a claim to kingship, that he was in fact the son of David.

00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:55.840
 But as we turn to our passage this morning in John chapter 12,

00:01:56.900 --> 00:02:01.980
 John gives us not just a glimpse of Jesus as king,

00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:09.400
 but we're going to see something unique about who Jesus is in the claim that he makes

00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:16.219
 and how it's attached with him being the resurrection and the life and why that matters this morning.

00:02:17.200 --> 00:02:20.379
 So the triumphal entry in John chapter 12,

00:02:20.540 --> 00:02:25.099
 and I'm trying to demonstrate this to us this morning as we look at our passage today.

00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:29.180
 John chapter 12 is more like a courtroom scene, as it were,

00:02:29.920 --> 00:02:32.180
 where the verdict has been given,

00:02:32.740 --> 00:02:36.180
 where the declaration of truth has finally been conveyed,

00:02:36.180 --> 00:02:38.800
 and the people who are standing there,

00:02:38.920 --> 00:02:45.400
 this entire nation that has gathered there because of Jesus and the Passover

00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:47.620
 that is going to be taking place during this week,

00:02:47.900 --> 00:02:51.980
 this final verdict is made that Jesus is the Messiah.

00:02:52.920 --> 00:02:53.300
 Why?

00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:57.080
 Well, as you think about courtroom trials,

00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:01.540
 I'm sure that all of us can maybe watch the shows

00:03:01.539 --> 00:03:05.699
 or maybe even have witnessed some courtroom trials in our own experience.

00:03:06.019 --> 00:03:10.239
 And you know that there are moments in the courtroom

00:03:10.239 --> 00:03:13.139
 where everyone has their own opinions,

00:03:13.859 --> 00:03:16.500
 where everyone has been listening to arguments.

00:03:16.799 --> 00:03:19.739
 They have their suspicions about what the truth is,

00:03:19.780 --> 00:03:23.739
 whether this individual is guilty or innocent.

00:03:24.579 --> 00:03:25.879
 There are theories, perhaps.

00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:27.199
 There are stories that you've heard.

00:03:27.299 --> 00:03:29.099
 There are truth claims that have been made.

00:03:29.099 --> 00:03:33.000
 But then there's that one moment, perhaps,

00:03:33.180 --> 00:03:36.819
 when the prosecution brings this one piece of evidence,

00:03:37.500 --> 00:03:39.859
 and it changes the scene of the entire courtroom.

00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:42.379
 The whispers stop.

00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:45.079
 The room kind of leans forward.

00:03:45.340 --> 00:03:47.240
 And the question is no longer,

00:03:47.340 --> 00:03:48.139
 well, what do you think?

00:03:48.780 --> 00:03:49.859
 The question is,

00:03:49.959 --> 00:03:52.400
 what are we going to do with this evidence

00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:54.819
 that's been given in front of us?

00:03:55.740 --> 00:03:58.039
 John chapter 12 is that scene.

00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:03.439
 John chapter 12 is that final definitive statement,

00:04:03.579 --> 00:04:06.120
 at least temporary statement,

00:04:06.280 --> 00:04:10.560
 of this nation that has finally come to terms

00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:13.399
 with a sign that Jesus has given.

00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:15.560
 And at least in this moment,

00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:17.920
 as Jesus is entering Jerusalem,

00:04:18.139 --> 00:04:20.180
 they are all declaring emphatically,

00:04:20.539 --> 00:04:22.519
 Jesus is the Messiah.

00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:25.839
 Jesus had taught and healed here.

00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:30.740
 His ministry had spanned three years of public ministry.

00:04:31.479 --> 00:04:32.779
 People have had their opinions.

00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:35.139
 People have given their feedback.

00:04:35.419 --> 00:04:36.839
 People have asked their questions.

00:04:37.379 --> 00:04:39.219
 People have seen and witnessed the miracles

00:04:39.219 --> 00:04:41.439
 and heard the statements that Jesus made.

00:04:42.180 --> 00:04:44.519
 But now, in John chapter 12,

00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:49.479
 Jesus has performed a sign that is unquestionable.

00:04:50.060 --> 00:04:51.839
 A sign that is undisputed.

00:04:52.740 --> 00:04:54.659
 The evidence is so convincing

00:04:54.659 --> 00:04:56.759
 and the verdict is so certain

00:04:56.759 --> 00:04:59.000
 that now an entire nation has come

00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:01.099
 to cast their vote, as it were.

00:05:02.479 --> 00:05:05.019
 In this moment, the whole nation has decided.

00:05:05.019 --> 00:05:08.659
 Jesus is, in fact, the Messiah,

00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:10.180
 as they will state.

00:05:11.379 --> 00:05:13.219
 In John chapter 12, we read this story

00:05:13.219 --> 00:05:15.180
 of a city that's forced to reckon

00:05:15.180 --> 00:05:16.519
 with all of the evidence

00:05:16.519 --> 00:05:18.219
 that has been placed in front of it.

00:05:18.500 --> 00:05:20.359
 And at least for now,

00:05:20.579 --> 00:05:21.659
 they have come to the conclusion,

00:05:21.919 --> 00:05:24.359
 yes, Jesus is the Messiah.

00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:27.079
 Well, what is that sign?

00:05:27.159 --> 00:05:29.699
 Well, we're going to look at that sign this morning.

00:05:29.779 --> 00:05:31.459
 That sign of Lazarus,

00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:33.359
 who had been raised from the dead.

00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.120
 It wasn't just something that was hearsay.

00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:38.000
 It wasn't something that was distant.

00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:39.879
 It was something that was known.

00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:42.840
 And the religious leaders who were now present

00:05:42.840 --> 00:05:44.800
 had seen it for themselves.

00:05:45.259 --> 00:05:47.460
 This risen man, Lazarus,

00:05:47.860 --> 00:05:48.680
 risen from the dead.

00:05:48.780 --> 00:05:51.780
 And there he was along with them in Bethany.

00:05:53.540 --> 00:05:55.439
 So we look at John chapter 12.

00:05:56.100 --> 00:05:57.340
 Turn there with me if you would.

00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:00.560
 And we're going to see that Jesus

00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:01.780
 is now in the spotlight.

00:06:01.779 --> 00:06:05.099
 Jesus is now the focus of attention.

00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:07.699
 And at each step along the way,

00:06:07.799 --> 00:06:09.779
 we need to understand that there is a response

00:06:10.500 --> 00:06:12.119
 that's necessary from us.

00:06:12.859 --> 00:06:14.179
 This first response is,

00:06:14.739 --> 00:06:17.299
 fix your attention on Jesus.

00:06:18.299 --> 00:06:19.799
 Fix your attention on Jesus.

00:06:19.979 --> 00:06:21.819
 That's what John wants us to do

00:06:21.819 --> 00:06:23.159
 as he begins this narrative.

00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:25.019
 In verse 12, he says,

00:06:25.019 --> 00:06:52.199
 Notice how John frames this.

00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:55.959
 He wants to draw attention to the crowd's response.

00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.800
 Notice this large crowd had come.

00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:02.680
 This large crowd took branches.

00:07:03.300 --> 00:07:05.560
 This large crowd went out to meet.

00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:07.079
 This large crowd cried,

00:07:07.159 --> 00:07:07.560
 Hosanna.

00:07:07.819 --> 00:07:10.319
 They are kind of the center of all the action

00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.519
 that's taking place in this narrative.

00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:15.699
 And what John is trying to help us understand

00:07:15.699 --> 00:07:18.099
 is there is a response that is required.

00:07:18.100 --> 00:07:21.080
 What will you do with all the evidence

00:07:21.080 --> 00:07:22.180
 that's been put in front of you?

00:07:23.300 --> 00:07:26.160
 And at least here in John chapter 12,

00:07:26.760 --> 00:07:28.020
 the crowd has gotten it right.

00:07:28.740 --> 00:07:30.300
 They're fixing their attention.

00:07:30.460 --> 00:07:32.720
 Their focus is on their Messiah.

00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:36.320
 We compare this with the other gospel records

00:07:36.320 --> 00:07:39.100
 and kind of draw out this theme for us

00:07:39.100 --> 00:07:40.960
 and help us appreciate what's taking place

00:07:40.960 --> 00:07:42.220
 uniquely in John.

00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:45.260
 In Matthew chapter 21, verse 1, it says this,

00:07:45.259 --> 00:07:47.500
 Now, when they drew near to Jerusalem

00:07:47.500 --> 00:07:50.539
 and came to Bethphage, the Mount of Olives,

00:07:50.759 --> 00:07:52.839
 then Jesus sent his two disciples.

00:07:52.980 --> 00:07:56.579
 Jesus is the main actor in this narrative.

00:07:57.099 --> 00:07:58.620
 Jesus is the one taking initiative.

00:07:59.459 --> 00:08:01.759
 Then in Mark chapter 11, much the same way.

00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:03.939
 Now, when they drew near to Jerusalem,

00:08:04.099 --> 00:08:05.159
 to Bethphage and Bethany,

00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:06.539
 at the Mount of Olives,

00:08:06.699 --> 00:08:08.240
 Jesus sent two of his disciples.

00:08:09.219 --> 00:08:12.300
 Then in Luke's account, Luke chapter 19, verses 28 and 29,

00:08:12.300 --> 00:08:14.319
 And when he had said these things,

00:08:14.460 --> 00:08:16.699
 he went on ahead going up to Jerusalem.

00:08:17.180 --> 00:08:19.079
 When he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany,

00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:20.860
 at the Mount that is called Olivet,

00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:22.780
 he sent two of his disciples.

00:08:23.800 --> 00:08:26.720
 Immediately would recognize something is different

00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:28.060
 about John's account.

00:08:28.900 --> 00:08:31.340
 And this is an interpretive clue for us.

00:08:32.000 --> 00:08:34.379
 Those of us who want to be Bible students,

00:08:34.539 --> 00:08:37.180
 we need to pay attention to details

00:08:37.179 --> 00:08:40.500
 because the writer, John,

00:08:40.799 --> 00:08:42.139
 through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit,

00:08:42.179 --> 00:08:43.279
 is trying to tell us something.

00:08:43.339 --> 00:08:44.620
 What does he want us to know?

00:08:44.859 --> 00:08:47.799
 What point is he trying to make for us?

00:08:48.839 --> 00:08:54.819
 You see, maybe in the other synoptic gospels,

00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:55.939
 Matthew, Mark, and Luke,

00:08:55.979 --> 00:08:57.000
 we might get the impression

00:08:57.000 --> 00:08:59.899
 that a crowd is kind of caught up in the moment.

00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:01.859
 The crowd is kind of captured

00:09:01.859 --> 00:09:04.919
 by all the things that are unfolding in front of them.

00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:07.599
 But John's account helps us understand,

00:09:08.179 --> 00:09:10.379
 no, everything that is taking place here

00:09:10.379 --> 00:09:11.459
 is deliberate.

00:09:12.579 --> 00:09:14.259
 Everything that is happening here

00:09:14.259 --> 00:09:17.860
 is a response to information that they know.

00:09:18.059 --> 00:09:18.839
 It's planned.

00:09:19.059 --> 00:09:19.819
 It's methodic.

00:09:21.259 --> 00:09:25.019
 And then we begin to see the details of this account,

00:09:25.719 --> 00:09:28.039
 the details of the account in John

00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:31.879
 that differ from the details in Matthew, Mark, and Luke.

00:09:32.099 --> 00:09:34.360
 And they're all true, by the way,

00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:37.759
 but what are the details that draws our attention to

00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:40.000
 that helps us understand the point

00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:40.879
 that he's trying to make?

00:09:42.019 --> 00:09:43.240
 In Matthew chapter 21,

00:09:43.419 --> 00:09:47.379
 there are 11 verses that describe this account,

00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:49.060
 this triumphal entry.

00:09:49.600 --> 00:09:51.259
 In Mark, there are 10 verses

00:09:51.259 --> 00:09:53.539
 that describe this triumphal entry.

00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:55.899
 In Luke, there are 17 verses.

00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:59.460
 He gives the most attention to this account

00:09:59.460 --> 00:10:00.900
 and wants to draw our attention

00:10:00.900 --> 00:10:02.540
 to the specific details

00:10:02.540 --> 00:10:05.240
 that mark Jesus out as the king

00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:07.080
 who's come to Jerusalem.

00:10:07.980 --> 00:10:08.920
 In these accounts,

00:10:09.019 --> 00:10:11.080
 and I have a graphic here for you,

00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:11.920
 there are two slides,

00:10:12.180 --> 00:10:13.560
 maybe too small to see,

00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:15.019
 but you still get the point.

00:10:15.460 --> 00:10:17.480
 The point is that Jesus is the one

00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:19.000
 who's selecting disciples.

00:10:19.160 --> 00:10:21.120
 15 different characteristics,

00:10:21.400 --> 00:10:22.780
 features that are true

00:10:22.780 --> 00:10:24.940
 of all of these gospel accounts,

00:10:24.940 --> 00:10:26.260
 but we're going to see

00:10:26.260 --> 00:10:27.020
 there's a difference

00:10:27.020 --> 00:10:28.520
 in the gospel of John.

00:10:29.420 --> 00:10:30.900
 Jesus selects two disciples.

00:10:31.500 --> 00:10:32.560
 These disciples are to go

00:10:32.560 --> 00:10:34.340
 into this village named Bethany.

00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:36.280
 They are to retrieve this donkey.

00:10:36.760 --> 00:10:38.600
 They are told how to find the donkey.

00:10:38.760 --> 00:10:40.640
 They're told what to say to the owner

00:10:40.640 --> 00:10:42.060
 when he questions them

00:10:42.060 --> 00:10:43.680
 about taking this donkey.

00:10:44.420 --> 00:10:45.920
 The multitudes have gathered.

00:10:46.100 --> 00:10:48.320
 They now have lain down their cloaks

00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:50.660
 and some pick up branches.

00:10:51.340 --> 00:10:51.980
 They cry,

00:10:51.980 --> 00:10:52.500
 Hosanna,

00:10:52.740 --> 00:10:54.600
 and then Jesus enters into Jerusalem

00:10:54.600 --> 00:10:56.399
 in a public way.

00:10:57.539 --> 00:10:58.779
 And then we turn to John.

00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:02.840
 And everything begins to change

00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:04.920
 as we read John's account.

00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:07.200
 The triumphal entry

00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:08.300
 in the gospel of John

00:11:08.300 --> 00:11:10.820
 comprises four verses

00:11:10.820 --> 00:11:12.360
 and four verses alone.

00:11:13.300 --> 00:11:14.960
 There's no mention of Bethphage.

00:11:15.340 --> 00:11:17.120
 There's no instructions to disciples.

00:11:17.800 --> 00:11:19.580
 There's no retrieving of the cult.

00:11:20.039 --> 00:11:21.080
 There's no statement

00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:22.120
 of Christ's authority.

00:11:22.500 --> 00:11:23.580
 There's no cloaks.

00:11:23.660 --> 00:11:24.440
 There's no mention

00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.900
 of Jesus actually making his way

00:11:26.900 --> 00:11:28.300
 into the city of Jerusalem.

00:11:28.940 --> 00:11:30.800
 Just the crowds and palm branches

00:11:30.800 --> 00:11:32.180
 crying out Hosanna

00:11:32.180 --> 00:11:34.220
 and Jesus is seated on a donkey.

00:11:35.580 --> 00:11:36.139
 Why?

00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:37.639
 The truncated account.

00:11:38.420 --> 00:11:40.480
 What is John trying to do

00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:42.200
 for the listeners

00:11:42.200 --> 00:11:44.940
 who are hearing this story?

00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:46.560
 What is the point

00:11:46.560 --> 00:11:47.720
 of all of these things?

00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:49.519
 What are the things

00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:50.639
 that we need to derive

00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:52.700
 and understand personally

00:11:52.700 --> 00:11:54.960
 as we look into this account ourselves?

00:11:55.759 --> 00:11:57.019
 That becomes clearer

00:11:57.019 --> 00:11:57.980
 when we begin to see

00:11:57.980 --> 00:11:59.440
 kind of the broader context

00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:01.100
 of what's taking place.

00:12:01.160 --> 00:12:02.180
 And I want to just draw

00:12:02.180 --> 00:12:03.460
 our attention to this briefly.

00:12:04.379 --> 00:12:05.980
 Notice that what just happens

00:12:05.980 --> 00:12:08.200
 just before this account

00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:09.139
 of the triumphal entry

00:12:09.139 --> 00:12:10.740
 in verses 9 and 10.

00:12:11.580 --> 00:12:12.620
 Notice the repetition.

00:12:12.620 --> 00:12:15.159
 When the large crowd

00:12:15.159 --> 00:12:16.399
 of the Jews learned

00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:17.419
 that Jesus was there,

00:12:17.779 --> 00:12:18.820
 they came not only

00:12:18.820 --> 00:12:19.879
 on account of him

00:12:19.879 --> 00:12:21.539
 but also to see

00:12:21.539 --> 00:12:23.060
 Lazarus

00:12:23.060 --> 00:12:25.279
 whom he had raised

00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:25.899
 from the dead.

00:12:26.580 --> 00:12:27.580
 So the chief priests

00:12:27.580 --> 00:12:28.340
 made plans

00:12:28.340 --> 00:12:29.820
 to put Lazarus

00:12:29.820 --> 00:12:30.539
 to death.

00:12:31.740 --> 00:12:33.039
 We have this massive crowd.

00:12:33.179 --> 00:12:34.759
 We have a group

00:12:34.759 --> 00:12:35.440
 of individuals.

00:12:35.620 --> 00:12:36.080
 They're gathering

00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:36.860
 for a reason.

00:12:37.080 --> 00:12:37.720
 They're gathering

00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:40.000
 because of Lazarus.

00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:41.440
 They've heard

00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:42.799
 what Christ had done

00:12:42.799 --> 00:12:44.220
 in Bethany

00:12:44.220 --> 00:12:45.740
 just a few months before.

00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:47.700
 And they're there

00:12:47.700 --> 00:12:48.899
 on account of Jesus

00:12:48.899 --> 00:12:50.179
 but they're also there

00:12:50.179 --> 00:12:51.399
 on account of

00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:53.320
 what Jesus has done

00:12:53.320 --> 00:12:54.039
 with Lazarus.

00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:55.960
 And they're furious.

00:12:56.659 --> 00:12:57.940
 The religious leaders

00:12:57.940 --> 00:12:59.200
 are furious

00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:00.399
 and they make plans

00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:01.559
 to put Lazarus

00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:02.159
 to death.

00:13:02.419 --> 00:13:04.000
 Let's extinguish

00:13:04.000 --> 00:13:04.980
 or exterminate

00:13:04.980 --> 00:13:05.519
 the evidence.

00:13:06.899 --> 00:13:07.919
 Now notice the verses

00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:09.399
 just after our account.

00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:11.159
 Beginning in verse 17.

00:13:12.059 --> 00:13:12.559
 The crowds

00:13:12.559 --> 00:13:13.679
 that had been with him

00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:14.700
 when he called

00:13:14.700 --> 00:13:16.059
 Lazarus out of the tomb

00:13:16.059 --> 00:13:17.200
 and raised him

00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:17.740
 from the dead

00:13:17.740 --> 00:13:18.799
 continued to bear witness.

00:13:19.100 --> 00:13:20.039
 The reason why

00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:20.820
 the crowd went

00:13:20.820 --> 00:13:21.759
 to meet him

00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:23.019
 was that they heard

00:13:23.019 --> 00:13:23.720
 that he had done

00:13:23.720 --> 00:13:24.980
 this sign.

00:13:26.139 --> 00:13:27.220
 So the Pharisees

00:13:27.220 --> 00:13:27.820
 said to one another

00:13:27.820 --> 00:13:28.620
 you see that

00:13:28.620 --> 00:13:30.320
 they're gaining nothing.

00:13:30.539 --> 00:13:30.740
 Look,

00:13:30.860 --> 00:13:31.779
 the whole world

00:13:31.779 --> 00:13:32.759
 has gone after him.

00:13:33.539 --> 00:13:33.980
 Here again

00:13:33.980 --> 00:13:35.679
 we see Lazarus.

00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:37.980
 And in John's own words

00:13:37.980 --> 00:13:38.940
 in verse 18

00:13:38.940 --> 00:13:40.160
 the reason why

00:13:40.160 --> 00:13:40.760
 all the crowds

00:13:40.760 --> 00:13:41.420
 have gathered

00:13:41.420 --> 00:13:42.620
 it's there in verse 18

00:13:42.620 --> 00:13:43.560
 the reason why

00:13:43.560 --> 00:13:44.420
 the crowds went out

00:13:44.420 --> 00:13:44.940
 to meet him

00:13:44.940 --> 00:13:46.620
 was that they had heard

00:13:46.620 --> 00:13:47.660
 that he had done

00:13:47.660 --> 00:13:48.740
 this sign.

00:13:49.820 --> 00:13:50.680
 And this word sign

00:13:50.680 --> 00:13:51.360
 will now become

00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:52.500
 kind of this keyword

00:13:52.500 --> 00:13:54.620
 throughout the gospel

00:13:54.620 --> 00:13:55.300
 of John

00:13:55.300 --> 00:13:56.660
 that will help us

00:13:56.660 --> 00:13:57.720
 to try to understand

00:13:57.720 --> 00:13:59.180
 what the whole point

00:13:59.180 --> 00:14:01.260
 of this triumphal entry was

00:14:01.260 --> 00:14:02.460
 and the whole point

00:14:02.460 --> 00:14:03.340
 of Jesus'

00:14:03.680 --> 00:14:04.820
 public ministry was.

00:14:04.820 --> 00:14:07.379
 Now we take

00:14:07.379 --> 00:14:08.220
 another step back.

00:14:08.860 --> 00:14:09.980
 We expand our view.

00:14:10.100 --> 00:14:10.780
 We back up now

00:14:10.780 --> 00:14:11.900
 to John chapter 12

00:14:11.900 --> 00:14:13.060
 the very beginning

00:14:13.060 --> 00:14:13.780
 in verse 1

00:14:13.780 --> 00:14:14.220
 it says

00:14:14.220 --> 00:14:15.379
 six days before

00:14:15.379 --> 00:14:16.040
 the Passover

00:14:16.040 --> 00:14:17.240
 Jesus therefore

00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:18.040
 came to Bethany

00:14:18.040 --> 00:14:20.040
 where Lazarus

00:14:20.040 --> 00:14:21.140
 was

00:14:21.140 --> 00:14:21.940
 whom Jesus

00:14:21.940 --> 00:14:22.440
 had raised

00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:22.980
 from the dead.

00:14:23.540 --> 00:14:24.300
 So they gave a dinner

00:14:24.300 --> 00:14:25.260
 for him there.

00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:26.440
 Martha served

00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:27.260
 and Lazarus

00:14:27.260 --> 00:14:27.920
 was one of those

00:14:27.920 --> 00:14:28.840
 reclining with him

00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:30.060
 at the table.

00:14:31.220 --> 00:14:31.800
 Jesus had

00:14:31.800 --> 00:14:33.160
 just been in Jericho

00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:34.659
 and Jesus

00:14:34.659 --> 00:14:36.079
 had made this trek

00:14:36.079 --> 00:14:38.000
 it was a 17 mile trek

00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:39.699
 in a 3,000 feet

00:14:39.699 --> 00:14:40.399
 in elevation

00:14:40.399 --> 00:14:42.519
 from the ground floor

00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:43.240
 as it were

00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:45.959
 of where Jericho was

00:14:45.959 --> 00:14:47.240
 up to the elevation

00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:48.279
 where Bethany was.

00:14:48.740 --> 00:14:49.740
 They were exhausted

00:14:49.740 --> 00:14:50.480
 and it was a journey

00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:51.100
 that probably would have

00:14:51.100 --> 00:14:51.939
 taken all day

00:14:51.939 --> 00:14:53.259
 and so this stop

00:14:53.259 --> 00:14:54.039
 of refreshment

00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:55.259
 is taking place

00:14:55.259 --> 00:14:55.819
 in Bethany

00:14:55.819 --> 00:14:56.600
 at the end

00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:57.439
 of this long trip.

00:14:58.500 --> 00:14:59.459
 And there Jesus is

00:14:59.459 --> 00:15:00.879
 with this family

00:15:00.879 --> 00:15:02.079
 that's become so beloved

00:15:02.080 --> 00:15:03.139
 and so near

00:15:03.139 --> 00:15:03.759
 to his heart

00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:05.120
 Mary

00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:06.000
 and Martha

00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:07.500
 and Lazarus

00:15:07.500 --> 00:15:08.259
 are there.

00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:10.100
 Now we back up

00:15:10.100 --> 00:15:10.920
 one more time

00:15:10.920 --> 00:15:12.220
 to the previous chapter

00:15:12.220 --> 00:15:13.139
 in chapter 11.

00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:14.620
 You're acquainted

00:15:14.620 --> 00:15:15.300
 with this narrative.

00:15:15.420 --> 00:15:15.740
 You know

00:15:15.740 --> 00:15:16.940
 this story

00:15:16.940 --> 00:15:18.480
 of Jesus

00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:19.620
 raising Lazarus

00:15:19.620 --> 00:15:20.180
 from the dead.

00:15:20.920 --> 00:15:21.620
 You're acquainted

00:15:21.620 --> 00:15:23.540
 with his work there

00:15:23.540 --> 00:15:24.540
 that Martha

00:15:24.540 --> 00:15:25.520
 when she knew

00:15:25.520 --> 00:15:26.259
 that her brother

00:15:26.259 --> 00:15:26.879
 was sick

00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:27.940
 she is sent

00:15:27.940 --> 00:15:29.379
 to fetch Jesus

00:15:29.379 --> 00:15:29.900
 who was about

00:15:29.900 --> 00:15:31.000
 a day's journey away.

00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:32.980
 Jesus by design

00:15:32.980 --> 00:15:33.639
 waited

00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:34.440
 he delayed

00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:36.299
 for another few days

00:15:36.299 --> 00:15:37.440
 then he makes his way

00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:38.480
 up to Bethany

00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:39.539
 and

00:15:39.539 --> 00:15:41.720
 as the text

00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:42.960
 will tell us

00:15:42.960 --> 00:15:44.179
 that Lazarus

00:15:44.179 --> 00:15:44.720
 has died.

00:15:45.379 --> 00:15:46.159
 He's been in the grave

00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:46.960
 for three days

00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:48.320
 but Jesus goes

00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:49.879
 to the grave

00:15:49.879 --> 00:15:51.559
 he has the stone

00:15:51.559 --> 00:15:52.600
 rolled away

00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:53.679
 which is emblematic

00:15:53.679 --> 00:15:54.679
 of what's going to happen

00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:56.259
 in just a couple of days.

00:15:57.059 --> 00:15:58.080
 Lazarus has died

00:15:58.080 --> 00:15:59.299
 the stone is rolled away

00:15:59.299 --> 00:16:02.179
 Jesus makes a public statement

00:16:02.179 --> 00:16:03.279
 I am the resurrection

00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:04.279
 and the life

00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:06.339
 he speaks to Lazarus

00:16:06.339 --> 00:16:07.740
 and Lazarus

00:16:07.740 --> 00:16:08.620
 comes forth

00:16:08.620 --> 00:16:09.719
 raised

00:16:09.719 --> 00:16:10.439
 from the dead.

00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:12.779
 The immediate response

00:16:12.779 --> 00:16:13.699
 to this very

00:16:13.699 --> 00:16:15.279
 public miracle

00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:16.459
 is found

00:16:16.459 --> 00:16:16.939
 in verses

00:16:16.939 --> 00:16:17.679
 45

00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:18.679
 to 57.

00:16:19.639 --> 00:16:20.000
 Notice

00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:20.939
 in verse 45

00:16:20.939 --> 00:16:22.839
 many of the religious leaders

00:16:22.839 --> 00:16:24.299
 who were from Jerusalem

00:16:24.299 --> 00:16:25.359
 friends of the family

00:16:25.359 --> 00:16:25.839
 as it were

00:16:25.839 --> 00:16:27.159
 believed in him

00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:28.399
 but

00:16:28.399 --> 00:16:29.639
 there were others

00:16:29.639 --> 00:16:30.519
 verse 46

00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:31.639
 some of them

00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:32.500
 went to the Pharisees

00:16:32.500 --> 00:16:33.240
 and told them

00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:34.779
 what Jesus had done

00:16:34.779 --> 00:16:36.480
 and they were not happy.

00:16:37.319 --> 00:16:38.399
 Verse 47

00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:39.899
 here's our key phrase again

00:16:39.899 --> 00:16:41.299
 for what are we to do

00:16:41.299 --> 00:16:42.539
 for this man

00:16:42.539 --> 00:16:43.279
 performs

00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:43.939
 many

00:16:43.939 --> 00:16:45.339
 signs

00:16:45.339 --> 00:16:46.939
 finally

00:16:46.939 --> 00:16:48.279
 a sign

00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:49.519
 that they could all

00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:50.259
 agree on.

00:16:51.220 --> 00:16:51.919
 Their concern

00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:53.259
 we find in verse 48

00:16:53.259 --> 00:16:53.899
 that everyone

00:16:53.899 --> 00:16:54.779
 will believe in him

00:16:54.779 --> 00:16:55.600
 and the Romans

00:16:55.600 --> 00:16:55.980
 will come

00:16:55.980 --> 00:16:56.439
 and take away

00:16:56.439 --> 00:16:57.799
 our place.

00:16:58.699 --> 00:16:59.980
 So what does Jesus do?

00:17:00.299 --> 00:17:01.620
 We find in verse 54

00:17:01.620 --> 00:17:03.120
 Jesus therefore

00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:03.759
 no longer

00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:04.660
 walked openly

00:17:04.660 --> 00:17:05.799
 among the Jews

00:17:05.799 --> 00:17:07.299
 but went from there

00:17:07.299 --> 00:17:07.940
 to the region

00:17:07.940 --> 00:17:08.680
 near the wilderness

00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:09.579
 to a town

00:17:09.579 --> 00:17:10.440
 called Ephraim

00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:11.279
 and there

00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:12.240
 stayed with

00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:13.160
 his disciples.

00:17:13.399 --> 00:17:13.599
 Why?

00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:14.599
 Because

00:17:14.599 --> 00:17:16.039
 verse 57

00:17:16.039 --> 00:17:17.359
 the chief priests

00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:17.960
 and Pharisees

00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:18.660
 had given orders

00:17:18.660 --> 00:17:19.299
 that if anyone

00:17:19.299 --> 00:17:20.599
 knew where he was

00:17:20.599 --> 00:17:21.680
 he should let them know

00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:23.200
 and they might

00:17:23.200 --> 00:17:24.500
 arrest him.

00:17:24.779 --> 00:17:25.759
 It was a dangerous

00:17:25.759 --> 00:17:26.259
 place

00:17:26.259 --> 00:17:27.019
 now that Jesus

00:17:27.019 --> 00:17:28.059
 had performed

00:17:28.059 --> 00:17:28.980
 this very public

00:17:28.980 --> 00:17:29.460
 sign

00:17:29.460 --> 00:17:30.779
 that was now

00:17:30.779 --> 00:17:31.899
 not only confirmed

00:17:31.899 --> 00:17:33.119
 but validated

00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:34.960
 by those who were there.

00:17:35.639 --> 00:17:36.920
 This unmistakable

00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:38.019
 irrefutable

00:17:38.019 --> 00:17:38.519
 evidence

00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:39.160
 that Jesus

00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:40.399
 was in fact

00:17:40.399 --> 00:17:41.299
 the Messiah.

00:17:42.299 --> 00:17:42.859
 This claim

00:17:42.859 --> 00:17:43.299
 that he had been

00:17:43.299 --> 00:17:44.680
 making all along

00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:45.759
 now confirmed.

00:17:46.779 --> 00:17:47.279
 Now remember

00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:48.639
 what John's goal

00:17:48.639 --> 00:17:49.480
 is in writing

00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:50.599
 his gospel.

00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:51.299
 We find that in

00:17:51.299 --> 00:17:52.379
 John chapter 20

00:17:52.379 --> 00:17:52.879
 verse 30

00:17:52.879 --> 00:17:53.279
 it says

00:17:53.279 --> 00:17:54.119
 now Jesus

00:17:54.119 --> 00:17:54.779
 did many

00:17:54.779 --> 00:17:55.899
 other signs

00:17:55.899 --> 00:17:57.099
 in the presence

00:17:57.099 --> 00:17:57.740
 of the disciples

00:17:57.740 --> 00:17:58.500
 which are not

00:17:58.500 --> 00:17:59.299
 written in this book

00:17:59.299 --> 00:18:00.359
 but these

00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:01.319
 are written

00:18:01.319 --> 00:18:02.279
 so that you

00:18:02.279 --> 00:18:02.720
 may believe

00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:03.180
 that Jesus

00:18:03.180 --> 00:18:03.879
 is the Christ

00:18:03.879 --> 00:18:04.559
 the son of God

00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:05.740
 and that by believing

00:18:05.740 --> 00:18:06.579
 you may have

00:18:06.579 --> 00:18:07.500
 life in his name.

00:18:07.879 --> 00:18:08.180
 Jesus

00:18:08.180 --> 00:18:09.700
 did signs

00:18:09.700 --> 00:18:11.559
 and John

00:18:11.559 --> 00:18:12.259
 wrote the gospel

00:18:12.259 --> 00:18:13.359
 so that you

00:18:13.359 --> 00:18:13.819
 would believe.

00:18:15.460 --> 00:18:16.240
 The story

00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:17.720
 of the triumphal

00:18:17.720 --> 00:18:17.980
 entry

00:18:17.980 --> 00:18:18.559
 isn't just

00:18:18.559 --> 00:18:19.180
 information.

00:18:19.180 --> 00:18:20.560
 it's not

00:18:20.560 --> 00:18:21.259
 just about

00:18:21.259 --> 00:18:22.039
 Jesus

00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:23.620
 making claims

00:18:23.620 --> 00:18:24.700
 it's about

00:18:24.700 --> 00:18:25.279
 Jesus being

00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:25.799
 worshipped.

00:18:26.779 --> 00:18:27.480
 Fix your eyes

00:18:27.480 --> 00:18:27.980
 on Jesus.

00:18:28.740 --> 00:18:29.820
 That's the message

00:18:29.820 --> 00:18:30.460
 that we find

00:18:30.460 --> 00:18:30.759
 here

00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:31.759
 in just the

00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:32.220
 first few

00:18:32.220 --> 00:18:32.539
 verses.

00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:34.200
 Fix your eyes

00:18:34.200 --> 00:18:34.799
 on Jesus.

00:18:35.100 --> 00:18:35.380
 Focus

00:18:35.380 --> 00:18:36.240
 on him.

00:18:36.299 --> 00:18:36.880
 Let him be

00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:37.980
 the center

00:18:37.980 --> 00:18:39.259
 of your affection

00:18:39.259 --> 00:18:40.420
 the focus

00:18:40.420 --> 00:18:41.640
 of your desire

00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:43.140
 the goal

00:18:43.140 --> 00:18:44.060
 of your love

00:18:44.060 --> 00:18:44.820
 and obedience.

00:18:44.819 --> 00:18:45.039
 obedience.

00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:46.359
 Next

00:18:46.359 --> 00:18:48.079
 we're encouraged

00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:48.659
 to marvel

00:18:48.659 --> 00:18:49.779
 at his bold

00:18:49.779 --> 00:18:50.379
 obedience.

00:18:51.379 --> 00:18:51.859
 Marvel

00:18:51.859 --> 00:18:52.720
 at his bold

00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:53.279
 obedience.

00:18:53.700 --> 00:18:54.240
 Coming back

00:18:54.240 --> 00:18:55.000
 to verse 12

00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:55.679
 of John

00:18:55.679 --> 00:18:56.159
 chapter 12

00:18:56.159 --> 00:18:56.700
 it says this

00:18:56.700 --> 00:18:57.460
 the next day

00:18:57.460 --> 00:18:58.200
 the large crowd

00:18:58.200 --> 00:18:58.639
 that had come

00:18:58.639 --> 00:18:59.559
 to feast

00:18:59.559 --> 00:19:00.259
 heard that

00:19:00.259 --> 00:19:00.579
 Jesus

00:19:00.579 --> 00:19:01.599
 was coming

00:19:01.599 --> 00:19:02.500
 to Jerusalem.

00:19:03.619 --> 00:19:04.579
 Jesus is coming

00:19:04.579 --> 00:19:05.279
 he's coming

00:19:05.279 --> 00:19:06.200
 out of

00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:07.079
 the hidden

00:19:07.079 --> 00:19:07.740
 spaces

00:19:07.740 --> 00:19:09.159
 in the parts

00:19:09.159 --> 00:19:10.039
 away from

00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:10.960
 the Jordan

00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:11.299
 River

00:19:11.299 --> 00:19:12.519
 he's coming

00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:13.019
 out of

00:19:13.019 --> 00:19:13.639
 concealment

00:19:13.639 --> 00:19:13.980
 and he's

00:19:13.980 --> 00:19:14.460
 walking

00:19:14.460 --> 00:19:15.380
 headlong

00:19:15.380 --> 00:19:16.200
 into the

00:19:16.200 --> 00:19:16.660
 dangerous

00:19:16.660 --> 00:19:17.100
 city

00:19:17.100 --> 00:19:18.500
 of Jerusalem.

00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:20.480
 The crowds

00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:20.880
 are there.

00:19:21.860 --> 00:19:22.240
 They heard

00:19:22.240 --> 00:19:22.680
 that Jesus

00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:23.700
 was coming

00:19:23.700 --> 00:19:24.700
 and so

00:19:24.700 --> 00:19:24.940
 what do they

00:19:24.940 --> 00:19:25.100
 do?

00:19:25.160 --> 00:19:25.380
 Well they

00:19:25.380 --> 00:19:26.059
 take branches

00:19:26.059 --> 00:19:26.759
 of palm

00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:27.039
 trees

00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:27.380
 they go

00:19:27.380 --> 00:19:27.700
 out to

00:19:27.700 --> 00:19:28.079
 meet him

00:19:28.079 --> 00:19:28.720
 they cry

00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:28.900
 out

00:19:28.900 --> 00:19:29.340
 Hosanna

00:19:29.340 --> 00:19:30.579
 there is

00:19:30.579 --> 00:19:31.000
 this

00:19:31.000 --> 00:19:32.319
 understanding

00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:33.059
 that something

00:19:33.059 --> 00:19:33.660
 significant

00:19:33.660 --> 00:19:34.400
 was unfolding

00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:35.440
 in front

00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:35.700
 of them

00:19:35.700 --> 00:19:35.920
 but

00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:37.779
 their action

00:19:37.779 --> 00:19:38.460
 is only

00:19:38.460 --> 00:19:39.279
 a response

00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:39.819
 to this

00:19:39.819 --> 00:19:40.500
 bold

00:19:40.500 --> 00:19:41.400
 obedience

00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:42.519
 on the

00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:42.819
 part of

00:19:42.819 --> 00:19:43.180
 our Lord.

00:19:43.180 --> 00:19:44.620
 Jesus

00:19:44.620 --> 00:19:45.220
 is bold

00:19:45.220 --> 00:19:45.660
 obedience

00:19:45.660 --> 00:19:46.080
 remember

00:19:46.080 --> 00:19:47.279
 Jesus

00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:47.840
 is doing

00:19:47.840 --> 00:19:48.080
 this

00:19:48.080 --> 00:19:48.620
 intentionally

00:19:48.620 --> 00:19:49.820
 there's

00:19:49.820 --> 00:19:50.400
 a design

00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:50.900
 behind

00:19:50.900 --> 00:19:51.279
 what's

00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:51.580
 going

00:19:51.580 --> 00:19:51.940
 on

00:19:51.940 --> 00:19:52.220
 here

00:19:52.220 --> 00:19:53.100
 we

00:19:53.100 --> 00:19:53.420
 saw

00:19:53.420 --> 00:19:53.720
 that

00:19:53.720 --> 00:19:54.600
 briefly

00:19:54.600 --> 00:19:54.880
 in

00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:55.080
 John

00:19:55.080 --> 00:19:55.380
 11

00:19:55.380 --> 00:19:55.940
 54

00:19:55.940 --> 00:19:56.740
 we saw

00:19:56.740 --> 00:19:56.900
 that

00:19:56.900 --> 00:19:57.259
 Jesus

00:19:57.259 --> 00:19:57.680
 therefore

00:19:57.680 --> 00:19:58.200
 no longer

00:19:58.200 --> 00:19:58.539
 walked

00:19:58.539 --> 00:19:59.039
 openly

00:19:59.039 --> 00:19:59.299
 among

00:19:59.299 --> 00:19:59.720
 the Jews

00:19:59.720 --> 00:20:00.160
 but went

00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:01.440
 from there

00:20:01.440 --> 00:20:02.120
 to the regions

00:20:02.120 --> 00:20:02.480
 near the

00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:02.759
 wilderness

00:20:02.759 --> 00:20:03.360
 why did

00:20:03.360 --> 00:20:03.600
 he do

00:20:03.600 --> 00:20:03.820
 that?

00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:04.060
 Well he

00:20:04.060 --> 00:20:04.460
 did that

00:20:04.460 --> 00:20:04.840
 because

00:20:04.840 --> 00:20:05.680
 of timing

00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:06.799
 he did

00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:06.980
 that

00:20:06.980 --> 00:20:07.279
 because

00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:07.480
 of

00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:07.820
 God's

00:20:07.820 --> 00:20:08.380
 design

00:20:08.380 --> 00:20:11.400
 so this

00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:11.680
 was the

00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:12.060
 consistent

00:20:12.060 --> 00:20:12.480
 pattern

00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:12.860
 of our

00:20:12.860 --> 00:20:13.120
 Lord

00:20:13.120 --> 00:20:14.220
 Jesus

00:20:14.220 --> 00:20:14.680
 understood

00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:15.300
 the timing

00:20:15.300 --> 00:20:16.400
 of the

00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:16.760
 father

00:20:16.760 --> 00:20:17.440
 and Jesus

00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:18.520
 up to

00:20:18.520 --> 00:20:18.740
 this

00:20:18.740 --> 00:20:19.120
 moment

00:20:19.120 --> 00:20:19.380
 would

00:20:19.380 --> 00:20:20.060
 conceal

00:20:20.060 --> 00:20:20.900
 himself

00:20:20.900 --> 00:20:21.900
 John

00:20:21.900 --> 00:20:22.520
 chapter 5

00:20:22.520 --> 00:20:23.160
 verse 13

00:20:23.160 --> 00:20:23.600
 says

00:20:23.600 --> 00:20:24.220
 now the

00:20:24.220 --> 00:20:24.560
 man

00:20:24.560 --> 00:20:25.060
 who had

00:20:25.060 --> 00:20:25.540
 been healed

00:20:25.540 --> 00:20:25.920
 did not

00:20:25.920 --> 00:20:26.280
 know who

00:20:26.280 --> 00:20:26.840
 he was

00:20:26.840 --> 00:20:27.660
 for Jesus

00:20:27.660 --> 00:20:28.120
 had

00:20:28.120 --> 00:20:28.740
 withdrawn

00:20:28.740 --> 00:20:30.220
 as there

00:20:30.220 --> 00:20:30.500
 was a

00:20:30.500 --> 00:20:30.860
 crowd in

00:20:30.860 --> 00:20:31.440
 that place

00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:32.600
 John

00:20:32.600 --> 00:20:33.080
 chapter 6

00:20:33.080 --> 00:20:33.720
 verse 15

00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:34.280
 perceiving

00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:35.480
 then that

00:20:35.480 --> 00:20:35.740
 they were

00:20:35.740 --> 00:20:36.139
 about to

00:20:36.139 --> 00:20:36.379
 come

00:20:36.379 --> 00:20:36.720
 and take

00:20:36.720 --> 00:20:36.839
 him

00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:37.460
 by force

00:20:37.460 --> 00:20:38.079
 to make

00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:38.279
 him

00:20:38.279 --> 00:20:38.859
 king

00:20:38.859 --> 00:20:39.519
 Jesus

00:20:39.519 --> 00:20:40.660
 withdrew

00:20:40.660 --> 00:20:41.279
 again

00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:41.940
 to the

00:20:41.940 --> 00:20:42.279
 mountain

00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:43.319
 by himself

00:20:43.319 --> 00:20:44.759
 John

00:20:44.759 --> 00:20:45.279
 chapter 7

00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:45.819
 verse 1

00:20:45.819 --> 00:20:46.440
 after this

00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:46.740
 Jesus

00:20:46.740 --> 00:20:47.259
 went about

00:20:47.259 --> 00:20:47.859
 in Galilee

00:20:47.859 --> 00:20:48.579
 he would

00:20:48.579 --> 00:20:49.220
 not go

00:20:49.220 --> 00:20:49.599
 about

00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:50.420
 in Judea

00:20:50.420 --> 00:20:51.200
 because the

00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:51.460
 Jews

00:20:51.460 --> 00:20:52.079
 were seeking

00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:52.940
 to kill

00:20:52.940 --> 00:20:53.240
 him

00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:54.960
 John

00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:55.339
 chapter 8

00:20:55.339 --> 00:20:55.859
 verse 59

00:20:55.859 --> 00:20:56.259
 so they

00:20:56.259 --> 00:20:56.599
 picked up

00:20:56.599 --> 00:20:56.940
 stones

00:20:56.940 --> 00:20:57.379
 to throw

00:20:57.379 --> 00:20:58.319
 at him

00:20:58.319 --> 00:20:59.460
 but Jesus

00:20:59.460 --> 00:21:00.160
 hid himself

00:21:00.160 --> 00:21:00.500
 and went

00:21:00.500 --> 00:21:00.940
 out of the

00:21:00.940 --> 00:21:01.240
 temple

00:21:01.240 --> 00:21:02.759
 John

00:21:02.759 --> 00:21:03.279
 chapter 10

00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:04.039
 verses 39

00:21:04.039 --> 00:21:04.899
 and 40

00:21:04.899 --> 00:21:05.220
 again

00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:05.619
 they sought

00:21:05.619 --> 00:21:06.099
 to arrest

00:21:06.099 --> 00:21:06.259
 him

00:21:06.259 --> 00:21:06.480
 but he

00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:06.980
 escaped

00:21:06.980 --> 00:21:07.659
 from their

00:21:07.659 --> 00:21:08.119
 hands

00:21:08.119 --> 00:21:08.740
 he went

00:21:08.740 --> 00:21:09.240
 away

00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:09.980
 across

00:21:09.980 --> 00:21:10.200
 the

00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:10.420
 Jordan

00:21:10.420 --> 00:21:10.720
 to the

00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:11.039
 place

00:21:11.039 --> 00:21:11.259
 where

00:21:11.259 --> 00:21:11.599
 John

00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:12.200
 had been

00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:12.779
 baptizing

00:21:12.779 --> 00:21:13.180
 at first

00:21:13.180 --> 00:21:13.759
 and there

00:21:13.759 --> 00:21:14.859
 he remained

00:21:14.859 --> 00:21:15.779
 why did

00:21:15.779 --> 00:21:16.339
 Jesus do

00:21:16.339 --> 00:21:16.559
 that

00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:17.000
 because

00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:17.539
 Jesus

00:21:17.539 --> 00:21:18.599
 was

00:21:18.599 --> 00:21:19.619
 instrumentally

00:21:19.619 --> 00:21:20.200
 controlling

00:21:20.200 --> 00:21:21.000
 the circumstances

00:21:21.000 --> 00:21:22.559
 Jesus

00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:22.960
 was in

00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:23.279
 charge

00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:24.519
 Jesus

00:21:24.519 --> 00:21:25.079
 was king

00:21:25.079 --> 00:21:26.200
 he knew

00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:26.399
 it was

00:21:26.399 --> 00:21:26.599
 going

00:21:26.599 --> 00:21:26.899
 down

00:21:26.899 --> 00:21:27.639
 and it

00:21:27.639 --> 00:21:28.000
 was through

00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:28.659
 the definite

00:21:28.659 --> 00:21:29.639
 and divine

00:21:29.639 --> 00:21:30.119
 plan of

00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:30.379
 God

00:21:30.379 --> 00:21:30.899
 that he

00:21:30.899 --> 00:21:31.200
 would now

00:21:31.200 --> 00:21:31.700
 make his

00:21:31.700 --> 00:21:32.139
 approach

00:21:32.139 --> 00:21:33.339
 and boldly

00:21:33.339 --> 00:21:33.899
 in obedience

00:21:33.900 --> 00:21:35.000
 make his

00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:35.320
 way

00:21:35.320 --> 00:21:35.640
 into

00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:36.140
 Jerusalem

00:21:36.140 --> 00:21:38.000
 you see

00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:39.100
 Jesus

00:21:39.100 --> 00:21:39.519
 knew

00:21:39.519 --> 00:21:39.900
 that

00:21:39.900 --> 00:21:40.759
 that the

00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:41.040
 father

00:21:41.040 --> 00:21:41.680
 had designed

00:21:41.680 --> 00:21:42.120
 a time

00:21:42.120 --> 00:21:42.540
 for him

00:21:42.540 --> 00:21:43.600
 again

00:21:43.600 --> 00:21:44.280
 we find

00:21:44.280 --> 00:21:44.660
 that as a

00:21:44.660 --> 00:21:44.920
 common

00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:45.300
 theme

00:21:45.300 --> 00:21:45.720
 throughout

00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:46.640
 the gospel

00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:47.100
 of John

00:21:47.100 --> 00:21:47.360
 John

00:21:47.360 --> 00:21:47.920
 chapter 2

00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:48.740
 verse 4

00:21:48.740 --> 00:21:49.519
 and Jesus

00:21:49.519 --> 00:21:50.180
 said to her

00:21:50.180 --> 00:21:51.080
 woman

00:21:51.080 --> 00:21:52.180
 what does

00:21:52.180 --> 00:21:52.580
 this have

00:21:52.580 --> 00:21:52.900
 to do

00:21:52.900 --> 00:21:53.180
 with me

00:21:53.180 --> 00:21:53.980
 my hour

00:21:53.980 --> 00:21:54.860
 has not

00:21:54.860 --> 00:21:55.140
 yet

00:21:55.140 --> 00:21:55.660
 come

00:21:55.660 --> 00:21:57.380
 then in

00:21:57.380 --> 00:21:57.560
 John

00:21:57.560 --> 00:21:58.080
 chapter 7

00:21:58.080 --> 00:21:58.519
 verse 6

00:21:58.519 --> 00:21:58.800
 Jesus

00:21:58.800 --> 00:21:59.180
 said to

00:21:59.180 --> 00:21:59.400
 them

00:21:59.400 --> 00:22:00.400
 my time

00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:01.060
 has not

00:22:01.060 --> 00:22:01.240
 yet

00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:01.700
 come

00:22:01.700 --> 00:22:03.000
 John

00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:03.560
 chapter 7

00:22:03.560 --> 00:22:04.040
 verse 8

00:22:04.040 --> 00:22:04.820
 you go up

00:22:05.259 --> 00:22:05.600
 I'm

00:22:05.600 --> 00:22:06.360
 not going

 verse 30

00:22:12.019 --> 00:22:12.300
 so they

00:22:12.300 --> 00:22:12.460
 were

00:22:12.460 --> 00:22:12.980
 seeking

00:22:12.980 --> 00:22:13.420
 to arrest

 his

00:22:15.580 --> 00:22:16.019
 hour

00:22:16.019 --> 00:22:16.480

00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:16.920
 yet

00:22:16.920 --> 00:22:17.360
 come

00:22:17.360 --> 00:22:19.120
 Jesus

00:22:19.120 --> 00:22:19.640
 is

00:22:25.819 --> 00:22:26.900
 working

00:22:26.900 --> 00:22:27.359
 out

00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:28.559
 boldly

00:22:28.559 --> 00:22:29.620
 obedience

00:22:29.620 --> 00:22:30.880
 he

00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:31.599

00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:32.019

00:22:35.779 --> 00:22:36.160

 he does

00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:41.259
 this

00:22:41.259 --> 00:22:41.940
 to establish

 that's

00:23:59.620 --> 00:23:59.759
 what

00:24:19.539 --> 00:24:19.960
 verse 1

00:24:19.960 --> 00:24:19.980
!

00:24:19.980 --> 00:24:20.320
 it says

00:24:20.319 --> 00:24:20.779
 six days

00:24:20.779 --> 00:24:21.059
 before

00:24:21.059 --> 00:24:21.200
 the

00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:21.659
 Passover

00:24:21.659 --> 00:24:22.460
 Jesus

00:24:22.460 --> 00:24:22.879
 therefore

00:24:22.879 --> 00:24:23.319
 came to

00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:23.659
 Bethany

00:24:23.659 --> 00:24:23.839

00:24:23.839 --> 00:24:24.299
 Lazarus

00:24:24.299 --> 00:24:24.639
 was

00:24:24.639 --> 00:24:25.099
 whom

00:24:25.099 --> 00:24:25.419
 Jesus

00:24:25.419 --> 00:24:25.619
 had

00:24:25.619 --> 00:24:25.879
 raised

00:24:25.879 --> 00:24:26.039
 from

00:24:26.159 --> 00:24:26.460
 dead

00:24:26.460 --> 00:24:27.480
 so

00:24:27.480 --> 00:24:27.659
 they

00:24:27.659 --> 00:24:27.859
 gave

00:24:27.859 --> 00:24:27.980
 a

00:24:28.139 --> 00:24:28.359

00:24:29.439 --> 00:24:29.980
 served

00:24:29.980 --> 00:24:30.579

00:24:30.579 --> 00:24:31.059
 Lazarus

00:24:31.059 --> 00:24:31.240
 was

00:24:31.240 --> 00:24:31.460
 one

00:24:31.460 --> 00:24:31.559

00:24:33.119 --> 00:24:33.960

00:24:33.960 --> 00:24:34.500
 therefore

00:24:34.500 --> 00:24:34.859
 took

00:24:34.859 --> 00:24:35.059
 a

 filled

00:24:43.299 --> 00:24:43.500
 with

00:24:47.819 --> 00:24:49.019
 he

00:24:49.019 --> 00:24:50.200
 actually

00:24:50.200 --> 00:24:50.359
 had

00:24:50.359 --> 00:24:50.720
 ulterior

00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:51.140
 motives

00:24:51.140 --> 00:24:51.400
 he

00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:51.599
 wanted

00:24:51.599 --> 00:24:51.759
 to

00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:55.779

00:24:55.779 --> 00:24:56.259
 but

00:24:56.259 --> 00:24:56.740
 Jesus

00:24:56.740 --> 00:24:57.559
 commends

00:24:57.559 --> 00:24:57.980
 Mary

00:24:57.980 --> 00:24:58.359
 remember

00:24:58.359 --> 00:24:58.640
 why

00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:00.180
 he says

00:25:00.180 --> 00:25:00.320
 there

00:25:00.320 --> 00:25:00.460
 in

00:25:00.460 --> 00:25:00.640
 verse

00:25:00.640 --> 00:25:01.000
 7

00:25:01.000 --> 00:25:02.220
 Jesus

00:25:02.220 --> 00:25:02.560
 says

00:25:02.560 --> 00:25:02.820
 leave

00:25:02.820 --> 00:25:02.980

00:25:02.980 --> 00:25:03.360
 alone

00:25:03.360 --> 00:25:04.140
 so

00:25:04.140 --> 00:25:04.320
 that

00:25:04.320 --> 00:25:04.600
 she

00:25:04.600 --> 00:25:04.900
 may

00:25:04.900 --> 00:25:05.340
 keep

00:25:05.340 --> 00:25:05.660
 it

00:25:05.660 --> 00:25:05.880
 for

00:25:05.880 --> 00:25:06.060
 the

00:25:06.500 --> 00:25:07.120
 of

00:25:07.360 --> 00:25:07.759
 burial

00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:09.140
 maybe

00:25:09.140 --> 00:25:09.840
 a more

 helpful

00:25:10.700 --> 00:25:10.960
 is

00:25:10.960 --> 00:25:11.220
 this

00:25:11.220 --> 00:25:11.880
 Jesus

00:25:11.880 --> 00:25:12.200
 said

00:25:12.200 --> 00:25:12.300
 to

00:25:12.300 --> 00:25:12.400
 her

00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:12.620
 let

00:25:12.620 --> 00:25:12.780

00:25:12.780 --> 00:25:13.080
 alone

00:25:13.080 --> 00:25:13.320
 she

00:25:13.320 --> 00:25:13.560
 has

00:25:13.560 --> 00:25:13.840
 kept

00:25:13.840 --> 00:25:14.200
 this

00:25:14.200 --> 00:25:14.600
 for

00:25:14.600 --> 00:25:14.780
 the

 day

00:25:15.259 --> 00:25:16.100
 of

00:25:16.100 --> 00:25:16.300
 my

00:25:16.300 --> 00:25:16.680
 burial

00:25:16.680 --> 00:25:18.200
 Jesus

00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:18.580
 knows

00:25:18.580 --> 00:25:18.880
 what

00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:19.259
 Mary

00:25:19.259 --> 00:25:19.500
 is

00:25:19.500 --> 00:25:19.800
 doing

00:25:19.800 --> 00:25:20.480
 Mary

00:25:20.480 --> 00:25:20.700
 is

00:25:20.700 --> 00:25:20.960
 unaware

00:25:20.960 --> 00:25:22.380
 what

00:25:22.380 --> 00:25:22.880
 did

00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:23.080
 Mary

00:25:23.080 --> 00:25:23.320
 think

00:25:23.320 --> 00:25:23.480
 she

00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:23.620
 was

00:25:23.620 --> 00:25:23.820
 doing

00:25:23.820 --> 00:25:24.020
 I

00:25:24.020 --> 00:25:24.340
 think

00:25:24.340 --> 00:25:24.980
 Mary

00:25:24.980 --> 00:25:25.440
 just

00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:25.700
 in

00:25:25.700 --> 00:25:25.920
 this

00:25:25.920 --> 00:25:26.240
 moment

00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:26.480
 was

00:25:26.480 --> 00:25:26.759
 so

00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:27.900
 full

00:25:27.900 --> 00:25:28.440
 of

00:25:28.779 --> 00:25:29.980
 she

00:25:29.980 --> 00:25:30.160
 was

00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:30.420
 so

00:25:30.420 --> 00:25:30.700
 full

00:25:30.700 --> 00:25:30.860
 of

00:25:30.860 --> 00:25:31.259
 gratitude

00:25:31.259 --> 00:25:32.740
 Jesus

00:25:32.740 --> 00:25:33.759
 had

00:25:33.759 --> 00:25:34.000
 done

00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:34.400
 something

00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:34.960
 significant

00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:35.380
 for her

00:25:35.380 --> 00:25:35.740
 family

00:25:35.740 --> 00:25:37.019
 remember

00:25:37.019 --> 00:25:37.340
 how

00:25:37.340 --> 00:25:38.059
 heartbroken

00:25:38.059 --> 00:25:38.380
 she

00:25:38.380 --> 00:25:38.759
 was

00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:38.960
 at

00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:39.120
 the

00:25:39.120 --> 00:25:39.460
 loss

00:25:39.460 --> 00:25:39.660
 of

00:25:39.660 --> 00:25:39.779
 her

00:25:39.779 --> 00:25:40.080
 brother

00:25:40.080 --> 00:25:40.660
 and

00:25:40.660 --> 00:25:41.200
 remember

00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:41.460
 how

00:25:41.460 --> 00:25:41.820
 she's

00:25:41.820 --> 00:25:42.019
 there

00:25:42.019 --> 00:25:42.500
 weeping

00:25:42.500 --> 00:25:42.980
 at

00:25:42.980 --> 00:25:43.120
 the

00:25:43.120 --> 00:25:43.340
 tomb

00:25:43.340 --> 00:25:43.700
 Jesus

00:25:43.700 --> 00:25:44.220
 comes

00:25:44.220 --> 00:25:44.820
 and

00:25:44.820 --> 00:25:45.220
 he

00:25:45.220 --> 00:25:45.600
 meets

00:25:45.600 --> 00:25:45.920
 with

00:25:45.920 --> 00:25:46.160
 her

00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:47.299
 and

00:25:47.299 --> 00:25:47.580
 he

00:25:47.580 --> 00:25:48.559
 reminds

00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:48.779
 her

00:25:48.779 --> 00:25:49.019
 I'm

00:25:49.019 --> 00:25:49.140
 the

00:25:49.140 --> 00:25:49.580
 resurrection

00:25:49.580 --> 00:25:49.799
 the

00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:50.039
 life

00:25:50.039 --> 00:25:50.420
 then

00:25:50.420 --> 00:25:50.580
 he

00:25:50.580 --> 00:25:51.000
 raises

00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:51.600
 her

00:25:51.600 --> 00:25:52.080
 brother

00:25:52.080 --> 00:25:52.380

00:25:52.840 --> 00:25:53.960

00:25:54.240 --> 00:25:55.380

00:25:55.380 --> 00:25:55.480
 the

00:25:55.480 --> 00:25:55.779
 moments

00:25:55.779 --> 00:25:56.160
 later

00:25:56.160 --> 00:25:56.900
 the

00:25:56.900 --> 00:25:57.200
 months

00:25:57.200 --> 00:25:57.480
 later

00:25:57.480 --> 00:25:57.759
 that

00:25:57.759 --> 00:25:58.680
 we find

00:25:58.680 --> 00:25:58.960
 here

00:25:58.960 --> 00:25:59.160
 in

00:26:00.299 --> 00:26:00.579
 what

00:26:00.579 --> 00:26:00.680
 is

00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:00.879
 Mary

00:26:00.879 --> 00:26:01.180
 doing

00:26:01.180 --> 00:26:02.180
 she's

00:26:02.180 --> 00:26:02.440
 so

00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:02.920
 full

00:26:02.920 --> 00:26:03.640
 of

00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:04.180
 gratitude

00:26:04.180 --> 00:26:04.819
 so

00:26:04.819 --> 00:26:05.140
 full

00:26:05.140 --> 00:26:05.319
 of

00:26:05.319 --> 00:26:05.740
 thanks

00:26:05.740 --> 00:26:06.879
 and

00:26:06.879 --> 00:26:07.039
 in

00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:07.240
 her

00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:07.559
 deep

00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:08.019
 gratitude

00:26:08.019 --> 00:26:08.460
 she

00:26:08.460 --> 00:26:09.440
 realizes

00:26:09.440 --> 00:26:09.759
 that

00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:10.339
 sometimes

00:26:10.339 --> 00:26:11.619
 gratitude

00:26:11.619 --> 00:26:12.339
 is just

00:26:12.339 --> 00:26:12.640
 not

00:26:12.640 --> 00:26:13.140
 sufficient

00:26:13.140 --> 00:26:13.420
 with

00:26:13.420 --> 00:26:13.879
 words

00:26:13.879 --> 00:26:15.140
 that

00:26:15.140 --> 00:26:15.640
 true

00:26:15.640 --> 00:26:16.400
 deep

00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:17.140
 meaningful

00:26:17.140 --> 00:26:17.660
 gratitude

00:26:17.660 --> 00:26:18.099
 needs

00:26:18.099 --> 00:26:18.359
 to be

00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:18.879
 expressed

00:26:18.879 --> 00:26:19.619
 in

00:26:19.619 --> 00:26:20.359
 sacrifice

00:26:20.359 --> 00:26:20.759
 in

00:26:20.759 --> 00:26:21.240
 action

00:26:21.240 --> 00:26:22.400
 and

00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:22.579
 so

00:26:22.579 --> 00:26:22.900
 she

00:26:22.900 --> 00:26:23.940
 buys

00:26:23.940 --> 00:26:24.319
 this

00:26:24.319 --> 00:26:24.940
 expensive

00:26:24.940 --> 00:26:25.779
 perfume

00:26:25.779 --> 00:26:26.140
 she

00:26:26.140 --> 00:26:26.779
 anoints

00:26:26.779 --> 00:26:27.380
 Jesus

00:26:27.380 --> 00:26:27.839
 with

00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:28.079
 it

00:26:28.079 --> 00:26:29.299
 and

00:26:29.299 --> 00:26:29.599
 in

00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:30.019
 so

00:26:30.019 --> 00:26:30.440
 doing

00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:31.480
 unawares

00:26:31.480 --> 00:26:32.099
 she

00:26:32.099 --> 00:26:32.359
 is

00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:32.779
 also

00:26:32.779 --> 00:26:33.539
 setting

00:26:33.539 --> 00:26:34.299

00:26:34.299 --> 00:26:35.000
 the

00:26:35.000 --> 00:26:35.839
 symbol

00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:36.700
 of what

00:26:36.700 --> 00:26:37.059
 Christ

00:26:37.059 --> 00:26:37.279
 will

00:26:37.279 --> 00:26:37.519
 do

00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:37.700
 in

00:26:37.700 --> 00:26:37.980
 just

00:26:37.980 --> 00:26:38.279
 a few

00:26:38.279 --> 00:26:38.519
 days

00:26:38.519 --> 00:26:38.680
 from

00:26:38.680 --> 00:26:38.859
 then

00:26:38.859 --> 00:26:40.539
 we

00:26:40.539 --> 00:26:40.859
 find

00:26:40.859 --> 00:26:41.200
 that

00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:42.440
 she's

00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:42.720
 doing

00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:42.980
 this

00:26:42.980 --> 00:26:43.160
 for

00:26:43.160 --> 00:26:43.319
 the

 day

00:26:43.640 --> 00:26:43.980

00:26:44.819 --> 00:26:45.960
 you

00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:46.099

00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:49.480
 resurrection

00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:50.119
 that

00:26:50.119 --> 00:26:50.660
 offers

00:26:50.660 --> 00:26:51.480
 resurrection

00:26:52.299 --> 00:26:53.259
 us

00:26:53.259 --> 00:26:54.599
 then

00:26:54.599 --> 00:26:54.859
 Jesus

00:26:54.859 --> 00:26:55.200
 needed

00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:55.380
 to

00:26:55.380 --> 00:26:55.640
 die

00:26:55.640 --> 00:26:56.900
 and

00:26:56.900 --> 00:26:57.119
 Mary

00:26:57.119 --> 00:26:57.619
 didn't

00:26:57.619 --> 00:26:58.099
 understand

00:26:58.099 --> 00:26:58.559
 that

00:26:58.559 --> 00:26:58.819
 but

00:26:58.819 --> 00:26:59.240
 she

00:26:59.240 --> 00:26:59.799

00:27:04.859 --> 00:27:05.059
 will

00:27:05.059 --> 00:27:05.380
 die

00:27:05.380 --> 00:27:06.640
 and

00:32:55.919 --> 00:32:56.179
 chapter

00:32:56.179 --> 00:32:56.539
 12

00:32:56.539 --> 00:32:56.959
 that

00:32:56.959 --> 00:32:57.479
 Jesus

00:32:57.479 --> 00:32:57.719
 does

00:32:57.719 --> 00:32:57.939
 not

00:32:57.939 --> 00:32:58.659
 protest

00:32:58.659 --> 00:32:59.199
 Jesus

00:32:59.199 --> 00:33:00.000
 receives

00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:00.259
 this

00:33:00.259 --> 00:33:00.619
 worship

00:33:00.619 --> 00:33:02.519
 but

00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:02.679
 it's

00:33:02.679 --> 00:33:03.079
 also

00:33:03.079 --> 00:33:03.559
 bound

00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:04.019
 together

00:33:04.019 --> 00:33:04.279
 with

00:33:04.279 --> 00:33:04.439
 the

00:33:04.439 --> 00:33:04.719
 statement

00:33:04.719 --> 00:33:05.000
 he's

00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:05.159
 just

00:33:05.159 --> 00:33:05.519
 made

00:33:05.519 --> 00:33:06.359
 in

00:33:06.359 --> 00:33:06.479
 the

00:33:06.479 --> 00:33:06.879
 presence

00:33:06.879 --> 00:33:07.119
 of

00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:07.759
 Lazarus

00:33:07.759 --> 00:33:08.099
 that

00:33:08.099 --> 00:33:08.759
 I

00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:09.159
 am

00:33:09.159 --> 00:33:09.419
 the

00:33:09.419 --> 00:33:09.899
 resurrection

00:33:09.899 --> 00:33:10.939
 and

00:33:10.939 --> 00:33:11.039
 the

00:33:11.039 --> 00:33:11.319
 life

00:33:11.319 --> 00:33:11.539
 and

00:33:11.539 --> 00:33:11.779
 Jesus

00:33:11.779 --> 00:33:12.119
 will

00:33:12.119 --> 00:33:12.559
 prove

00:33:12.559 --> 00:33:13.399
 in

00:33:13.399 --> 00:33:13.619
 just

00:33:13.619 --> 00:33:13.879
 a few

00:33:13.879 --> 00:33:14.159
 days

00:33:14.159 --> 00:33:14.359
 from

00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:14.519
 there

00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:14.679
 that

00:33:14.679 --> 00:33:14.899
 he

00:33:14.899 --> 00:33:15.099
 in

00:33:15.099 --> 00:33:15.339
 fact

00:33:15.339 --> 00:33:15.739
 was

00:33:15.739 --> 00:33:16.159
 this

00:33:16.159 --> 00:33:17.059
 resurrection

00:33:17.059 --> 00:33:17.899
 in

00:33:17.899 --> 00:33:18.000
 the

00:33:20.619 --> 00:33:20.799
 king

00:33:20.799 --> 00:33:22.739
 and

00:33:22.739 --> 00:33:23.500
 they

00:33:23.500 --> 00:33:23.679
 don't

00:33:23.679 --> 00:33:24.239
 understand

00:33:24.239 --> 00:33:24.859
 necessarily

00:33:24.859 --> 00:33:25.479
 what the

00:33:25.479 --> 00:33:25.819
 cross

00:33:25.819 --> 00:33:26.179
 is going

00:33:26.179 --> 00:33:26.659
 to hold

00:33:26.659 --> 00:33:27.259
 but

00:33:27.259 --> 00:33:27.939
 at least

00:33:27.939 --> 00:33:28.379
 for now

00:33:28.379 --> 00:33:28.819
 in this

00:33:28.819 --> 00:33:29.159
 moment

00:33:29.159 --> 00:33:29.559
 they're

00:33:29.559 --> 00:33:30.099
 celebrating

00:33:30.099 --> 00:33:30.599
 Messiah

00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:31.919
 as

00:33:31.919 --> 00:33:32.239
 king

00:33:32.239 --> 00:33:33.619
 they

00:33:33.619 --> 00:33:33.919
 announce

00:33:33.919 --> 00:33:34.119
 his

00:33:34.119 --> 00:33:34.479
 victory

00:33:34.479 --> 00:33:35.000
 before

00:33:35.000 --> 00:33:35.699
 they

00:33:35.699 --> 00:33:36.239
 understand

00:33:36.239 --> 00:33:36.459
 the

00:33:36.459 --> 00:33:36.899
 cost

00:33:36.899 --> 00:33:37.699
 of

00:33:37.699 --> 00:33:37.859
 that

00:33:37.859 --> 00:33:38.259
 victory

00:33:38.259 --> 00:33:39.339
 their

00:33:39.339 --> 00:33:39.819
 celebration

00:33:39.819 --> 00:33:40.219
 really

00:33:40.219 --> 00:33:40.719
 in this

00:33:40.719 --> 00:33:41.000
 moment

00:33:41.000 --> 00:33:41.199
 is

00:33:41.199 --> 00:33:41.519
 empty

00:33:41.519 --> 00:33:42.459
 because

00:33:42.459 --> 00:33:42.559
 they

00:33:42.559 --> 00:33:42.739
 don't

00:33:42.739 --> 00:33:43.239
 recognize

00:33:43.239 --> 00:33:43.599
 the

00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:44.000
 significance

00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:44.259
 of

00:33:44.259 --> 00:33:44.399
 what

00:33:44.399 --> 00:33:44.699
 Jesus

00:33:44.699 --> 00:33:45.639
 is

00:33:45.639 --> 00:33:45.839
 about

00:33:45.839 --> 00:33:46.000
 to

00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:46.219
 do

00:33:46.219 --> 00:33:46.419
 and

00:33:46.419 --> 00:33:46.819
 that's

00:33:46.819 --> 00:33:47.000
 why

00:33:47.000 --> 00:33:47.219
 we

00:33:47.219 --> 00:33:47.739
 find

00:33:47.739 --> 00:33:48.739
 in

00:33:48.739 --> 00:33:48.979
 the

00:33:48.979 --> 00:33:49.299
 death

00:33:49.299 --> 00:33:49.539
 of

00:33:49.539 --> 00:33:49.899
 Christ

00:33:49.899 --> 00:33:50.279
 so

00:33:50.279 --> 00:33:50.599
 many

00:33:50.599 --> 00:33:51.559
 are

00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:52.459
 confused

00:33:52.459 --> 00:33:53.039
 and

00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:53.679
 while

00:33:53.679 --> 00:33:54.519
 in

00:33:54.519 --> 00:33:54.799
 Acts

00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:55.019
 chapter

00:33:55.019 --> 00:33:55.319
 2

00:33:55.319 --> 00:33:55.500
 there

00:33:55.500 --> 00:33:55.579
 are

00:33:55.579 --> 00:33:55.740
 so

00:33:55.740 --> 00:33:56.219
 few

00:33:56.219 --> 00:33:56.439
 that

00:33:56.439 --> 00:33:56.919
 remain

00:33:56.919 --> 00:33:57.539
 these

00:33:57.539 --> 00:33:58.079
 120

00:33:58.079 --> 00:33:58.679
 believers

00:33:58.679 --> 00:33:59.439
 out of

00:33:59.439 --> 00:33:59.579
 the

00:33:59.579 --> 00:33:59.980
 thousands

00:33:59.980 --> 00:34:00.279
 and

00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:00.639
 thousands

00:34:00.639 --> 00:34:00.919
 of

00:34:00.919 --> 00:34:01.179
 those

00:34:01.179 --> 00:34:01.419
 who

00:34:01.419 --> 00:34:02.299
 attested

00:34:02.299 --> 00:34:02.559
 and

00:34:02.559 --> 00:34:03.079
 celebrated

00:34:03.079 --> 00:34:03.419
 him

00:34:03.419 --> 00:34:04.619
 why

00:34:04.619 --> 00:34:04.799
 they

00:34:04.799 --> 00:34:05.139
 turn

00:34:05.139 --> 00:34:05.659
 and say

00:34:05.659 --> 00:34:06.199
 crucify

00:34:06.199 --> 00:34:06.500
 him

00:34:06.500 --> 00:34:07.299
 take

00:34:07.299 --> 00:34:07.419
 him

00:34:07.419 --> 00:34:07.740
 away

00:34:07.740 --> 00:34:08.920
 their

00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:09.400
 celebration

00:34:09.400 --> 00:34:10.519
 was

00:34:10.519 --> 00:34:10.860
 empty

00:34:10.860 --> 00:34:12.339
 and

00:34:12.339 --> 00:34:12.819
 ironically

00:34:12.819 --> 00:34:13.960
 the

00:34:13.960 --> 00:34:14.279
 act

00:34:14.279 --> 00:34:14.460
 that

00:34:14.460 --> 00:34:14.619
 was

00:34:14.619 --> 00:34:15.079
 meant

00:34:15.079 --> 00:34:16.079
 to

00:34:16.079 --> 00:34:16.759
 silence

00:34:16.759 --> 00:34:17.119
 the

00:34:17.119 --> 00:34:17.739
 crowds

00:34:17.739 --> 00:34:18.559
 and

00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:19.119
 discredit

00:34:19.119 --> 00:34:19.380
 the

00:34:19.380 --> 00:34:19.980
 messianic

00:34:19.980 --> 00:34:20.579
 claims

00:34:20.579 --> 00:34:21.619
 to

00:34:21.619 --> 00:34:21.840
 put

00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:22.279
 Jesus

00:34:22.279 --> 00:34:22.500
 to

00:34:22.500 --> 00:34:22.739
 death

00:34:22.739 --> 00:34:22.900
 and

00:34:22.900 --> 00:34:23.279
 put

00:34:23.279 --> 00:34:24.019
 Lazarus

00:34:24.019 --> 00:34:24.179
 to

00:34:24.179 --> 00:34:24.500
 death

00:34:24.500 --> 00:34:25.119
 those

00:34:25.119 --> 00:34:25.500
 things

00:34:25.500 --> 00:34:25.679
 to

00:34:27.059 --> 00:34:27.559
 crowds

00:34:29.340 --> 00:34:29.840
 evidence

00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:30.159
 that was

00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:30.380
 there

00:34:30.380 --> 00:34:30.539
 to

00:34:30.539 --> 00:34:31.079
 take

00:34:31.079 --> 00:34:31.199
 it

00:34:31.199 --> 00:34:31.400
 out

00:34:31.400 --> 00:34:31.480
 of

00:34:31.480 --> 00:34:31.559
 the

00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:31.799
 way

00:34:31.799 --> 00:34:32.420
 the

00:34:32.420 --> 00:34:33.039
 very

00:34:33.039 --> 00:34:33.460
 things

00:34:33.460 --> 00:34:33.579
 that

00:34:33.579 --> 00:34:33.699
 were

00:34:37.279 --> 00:34:37.480
 give

00:34:37.480 --> 00:34:37.819
 us

00:34:37.819 --> 00:34:38.279
 reason

00:34:38.279 --> 00:34:38.500
 to

00:34:38.500 --> 00:34:38.860
 praise

00:34:38.860 --> 00:34:40.159
 we

00:34:40.159 --> 00:34:40.559
 praise

00:34:40.559 --> 00:34:41.400
 a

00:34:41.400 --> 00:34:41.639
 risen

00:34:41.639 --> 00:34:42.000

00:34:44.420 --> 00:34:44.860
 because

00:34:44.860 --> 00:34:45.099
 he

00:34:45.099 --> 00:34:45.259
 had

00:34:45.259 --> 00:34:45.400
 to

00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:45.759
 die

00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:46.660

00:34:46.660 --> 00:34:46.820
 he

00:34:46.820 --> 00:34:46.960
 could

00:34:46.960 --> 00:34:47.360
 prove

00:34:47.360 --> 00:34:47.980
 his

 to

00:34:52.020 --> 00:34:53.180
 experience

00:34:53.180 --> 00:34:53.960
 that same

00:34:53.960 --> 00:34:54.500
 resurrection

00:34:54.500 --> 00:34:55.940
 in life

00:34:55.940 --> 00:34:56.560
 through faith

00:34:56.560 --> 00:34:57.140
 in him

00:34:57.140 --> 00:34:59.040
 see

00:34:59.040 --> 00:35:00.600
 Jesus came

00:35:00.600 --> 00:35:01.220
 to extend

00:35:01.220 --> 00:35:01.640
 that

00:35:01.640 --> 00:35:02.360
 resurrection

00:35:02.360 --> 00:35:03.140
 life

00:35:03.140 --> 00:35:03.540
 power

00:35:03.540 --> 00:35:04.200
 and we're

00:35:04.200 --> 00:35:04.440
 going to

00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:05.200
 look at that

00:35:05.200 --> 00:35:05.760
 next week

00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:06.160
 and see

00:35:06.160 --> 00:35:07.200
 the wonder

00:35:07.200 --> 00:35:07.760
 of his

00:35:07.760 --> 00:35:08.240
 resurrection

00:35:08.240 --> 00:35:08.740
 and all

00:35:08.740 --> 00:35:09.100
 that we

00:35:09.100 --> 00:35:10.060
 can benefit

00:35:10.060 --> 00:35:10.400
 from

00:35:10.400 --> 00:35:10.800
 because

00:35:10.800 --> 00:35:11.019
 of

00:35:11.019 --> 00:35:11.920
 this

00:35:11.920 --> 00:35:13.300
 obedient

00:35:13.300 --> 00:35:14.420
 son

00:35:14.420 --> 00:35:15.200
 obedient

00:35:15.200 --> 00:35:15.740
 king

00:35:15.740 --> 00:35:16.920
 coming

00:35:16.920 --> 00:35:17.160
 into

00:35:17.160 --> 00:35:17.619
 Jerusalem

00:35:17.619 --> 00:35:20.920
 so the

00:35:20.920 --> 00:35:21.200
 question

00:35:21.200 --> 00:35:21.519
 that we

00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:22.460
 finish

00:35:22.460 --> 00:35:22.700
 with

00:35:22.700 --> 00:35:22.860
 this

00:35:22.860 --> 00:35:23.599
 morning

00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:23.940
 is

00:35:23.940 --> 00:35:24.920
 do

00:35:24.920 --> 00:35:25.300
 you

00:35:25.300 --> 00:35:26.320
 admire

00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:27.300
 the

00:35:27.300 --> 00:35:27.740
 son

00:35:27.740 --> 00:35:29.119
 without

00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:29.480
 coming

00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:29.780
 to the

00:35:29.780 --> 00:35:30.019
 savior

00:35:30.019 --> 00:35:31.960
 are you

00:35:31.960 --> 00:35:32.420
 admiring

00:35:32.420 --> 00:35:33.019
 a king

00:35:33.019 --> 00:35:34.139
 are you

00:35:34.139 --> 00:35:34.599
 admiring

00:35:34.599 --> 00:35:35.180
 a figure

00:35:35.180 --> 00:35:36.400
 are you

00:35:36.400 --> 00:35:37.300
 admiring

00:35:37.300 --> 00:35:37.680
 someone

00:35:37.680 --> 00:35:38.240
 who comes

00:35:38.240 --> 00:35:38.740
 and fixes

00:35:38.740 --> 00:35:39.000
 your

00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:39.660
 problems

00:35:39.659 --> 00:35:40.920
 but you

00:35:40.920 --> 00:35:41.059
 don't

00:35:41.059 --> 00:35:41.259
 really

00:35:41.259 --> 00:35:41.779
 understand

00:35:41.779 --> 00:35:42.000
 the

00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:42.399
 significance

00:35:42.399 --> 00:35:42.859
 and the

00:35:42.859 --> 00:35:43.179
 depth

00:35:43.179 --> 00:35:44.000
 of what

00:35:44.000 --> 00:35:44.239
 Jesus

00:35:44.239 --> 00:35:44.659
 came to

00:35:44.659 --> 00:35:44.779
 do

00:35:44.779 --> 00:35:45.299
 to seek

00:35:45.299 --> 00:35:45.839
 and to

00:35:45.839 --> 00:35:46.199
 save

00:35:46.199 --> 00:35:46.719
 the

00:35:46.719 --> 00:35:47.139
 lost

00:35:47.139 --> 00:35:47.699
 and for

00:35:47.699 --> 00:35:48.000
 him to

00:35:48.000 --> 00:35:48.239
 seek

00:35:48.239 --> 00:35:48.500
 and to

00:35:48.500 --> 00:35:48.679
 save

00:35:48.679 --> 00:35:48.819
 the

00:35:48.819 --> 00:35:49.099
 lost

00:35:49.099 --> 00:35:49.879
 you need

00:35:49.879 --> 00:35:50.259
 to be

00:35:50.259 --> 00:35:50.759
 one

00:35:50.759 --> 00:35:51.359
 who admits

00:35:51.359 --> 00:35:51.799
 that you're

00:35:51.799 --> 00:35:52.139
 lost

00:35:52.139 --> 00:35:52.539
 you need

00:35:52.539 --> 00:35:52.679
 to be

00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:53.159
 one

00:35:53.159 --> 00:35:53.699
 who admits

00:35:53.699 --> 00:35:54.039
 that you

00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:54.339
 need

00:35:54.339 --> 00:35:54.879
 saving

00:35:54.879 --> 00:35:55.739
 you need

00:35:55.739 --> 00:35:55.940
 to be

00:35:55.940 --> 00:35:56.239
 one

00:35:56.239 --> 00:35:56.839
 that admits

00:35:56.839 --> 00:35:58.000
 that you

00:35:58.000 --> 00:35:58.899
 are broken

00:35:58.899 --> 00:35:59.359
 and you

00:35:59.359 --> 00:35:59.920
 are out of

00:35:59.920 --> 00:36:00.399
 fellowship

00:36:00.399 --> 00:36:01.579
 with God

00:36:01.579 --> 00:36:02.920
 that sin

00:36:02.920 --> 00:36:03.799
 has separated

00:36:03.799 --> 00:36:04.219
 us

00:36:04.219 --> 00:36:04.920
 from God

00:36:04.920 --> 00:36:05.519
 and so

00:36:05.519 --> 00:36:05.839
 Jesus

00:36:05.839 --> 00:36:06.440
 comes

00:36:06.440 --> 00:36:07.559
 Jesus

00:36:07.559 --> 00:36:08.099
 comes

00:36:08.099 --> 00:36:09.299
 to make

00:36:09.299 --> 00:36:09.639
 a way

00:36:09.639 --> 00:36:10.639
 for us

00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:11.219
 to enjoy

00:36:11.219 --> 00:36:12.199
 life

00:36:12.199 --> 00:36:13.679
 life

00:36:13.679 --> 00:36:14.719
 just like

00:36:14.719 --> 00:36:14.940
 this

00:36:14.940 --> 00:36:15.420
 resurrection

00:36:15.420 --> 00:36:16.000
 life

00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:16.920
 that

00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:17.480
 Lazarus

00:36:17.480 --> 00:36:17.980
 enjoyed

00:36:17.980 --> 00:36:18.879
 he

00:36:18.879 --> 00:36:19.559
 invites

00:36:19.559 --> 00:36:19.839
 us

00:36:19.839 --> 00:36:20.019
 to

00:36:20.019 --> 00:36:20.460
 participate

00:36:20.460 --> 00:36:20.799
 in

00:36:20.799 --> 00:36:21.259
 through

00:36:21.259 --> 00:36:21.679
 faith

00:36:21.679 --> 00:36:22.379
 in

00:36:22.379 --> 00:36:22.679
 Christ

00:36:22.679 --> 00:36:23.099
 believe

00:36:23.099 --> 00:36:24.359
 on the

00:36:24.359 --> 00:36:24.519
 Lord

00:36:24.519 --> 00:36:24.759
 Jesus

00:36:24.759 --> 00:36:25.199
 Christ

00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:26.279
 and you'll

00:36:26.279 --> 00:36:26.799
 be saved

00:36:26.799 --> 00:36:28.079
 as Acts

00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:28.759
 chapter 2

00:36:28.759 --> 00:36:29.339
 verse 21

00:36:29.339 --> 00:36:29.679
 says

00:36:29.679 --> 00:36:29.940
 and it

00:36:29.940 --> 00:36:30.239
 shall come

00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:30.719
 to pass

00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:31.879
 that everyone

00:36:31.879 --> 00:36:32.960
 who calls

00:36:32.960 --> 00:36:33.759
 on the name

00:36:33.759 --> 00:36:34.659
 of the Lord

00:36:34.659 --> 00:36:35.279
 shall be

00:36:35.279 --> 00:36:35.599
 saved

00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:36.940
 have you

00:36:36.940 --> 00:36:37.179
 come

00:36:37.179 --> 00:36:37.519
 to a

00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:37.819
 place

00:36:37.819 --> 00:36:38.380
 not just

00:36:38.380 --> 00:36:38.679
 in

00:36:38.679 --> 00:36:39.259
 celebrating

00:36:39.259 --> 00:36:40.940
 the work

00:36:40.940 --> 00:36:41.699
 of Christ

00:36:41.699 --> 00:36:42.179
 but coming

00:36:42.179 --> 00:36:42.440
 to a

00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:42.779
 place

00:36:42.779 --> 00:36:43.799
 of

00:36:43.799 --> 00:36:44.500
 worshiping

00:36:44.500 --> 00:36:45.460
 the

00:36:45.460 --> 00:36:45.739
 Savior

00:36:45.739 --> 00:36:46.659
 let's

00:36:46.659 --> 00:36:46.900
 pray

00:36:46.900 --> 00:36:48.599
 Lord

00:36:48.599 --> 00:36:49.119
 thank you

00:36:49.119 --> 00:36:50.420
 for this

00:36:50.420 --> 00:36:50.980
 triumphal

00:36:50.980 --> 00:36:51.279
 entry

00:36:51.279 --> 00:36:51.719
 thank you

00:36:51.719 --> 00:36:51.980
 for the

00:36:51.980 --> 00:36:52.259
 way

00:36:52.259 --> 00:36:53.139
 that John

00:36:53.139 --> 00:36:53.679
 captures

00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:54.400
 this story

00:36:54.400 --> 00:36:55.259
 to help

00:36:55.259 --> 00:36:56.019
 draw attention

00:36:56.019 --> 00:36:57.559
 not only

00:36:57.559 --> 00:36:57.960
 to

00:36:57.960 --> 00:36:58.719
 this

00:36:58.719 --> 00:37:00.380
 procession

00:37:00.380 --> 00:37:00.599
 that's

00:37:00.599 --> 00:37:01.500
 taking place

00:37:01.500 --> 00:37:02.400
 there in

00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:02.799
 Jerusalem

00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:03.539
 but more

00:37:03.539 --> 00:37:04.180
 importantly

00:37:04.180 --> 00:37:06.560
 a nation

00:37:06.560 --> 00:37:07.660
 that is

00:37:07.660 --> 00:37:08.260
 confirmed

00:37:08.260 --> 00:37:09.100
 at least

00:37:09.100 --> 00:37:09.460
 for the

00:37:09.460 --> 00:37:09.760
 moment

00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:10.660
 confirmed

00:37:10.660 --> 00:37:11.580
 that the

00:37:11.580 --> 00:37:11.920
 sign

00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:12.220
 that you

00:37:12.220 --> 00:37:12.620
 gave

00:37:12.620 --> 00:37:13.220
 is

00:37:13.220 --> 00:37:13.740
 convincing

00:37:13.740 --> 00:37:14.600
 that it's

00:37:14.600 --> 00:37:15.260
 indisputable

00:37:15.260 --> 00:37:17.120
 Lord I

00:37:17.120 --> 00:37:17.500
 imagine

00:37:17.500 --> 00:37:17.940
 that many

00:37:17.940 --> 00:37:18.300
 of us

00:37:18.300 --> 00:37:18.680
 in this

00:37:18.680 --> 00:37:18.920
 room

00:37:18.920 --> 00:37:19.260
 have come

00:37:19.260 --> 00:37:19.500
 to a

00:37:19.500 --> 00:37:19.800
 place

00:37:19.800 --> 00:37:20.420
 of seeing

00:37:20.420 --> 00:37:21.519
 the

00:37:21.519 --> 00:37:22.200
 glimpses

00:37:22.200 --> 00:37:23.260
 of your

00:37:23.260 --> 00:37:24.160
 son

00:37:24.160 --> 00:37:25.240
 and have

00:37:25.240 --> 00:37:25.580
 come to

00:37:25.580 --> 00:37:26.180
 recognize

00:37:26.180 --> 00:37:27.460
 the authority

00:37:27.460 --> 00:37:28.180
 of your

00:37:28.180 --> 00:37:28.700
 works

00:37:28.700 --> 00:37:29.680
 have come

00:37:29.680 --> 00:37:30.560
 to appreciate

00:37:30.560 --> 00:37:31.380
 perhaps

00:37:31.380 --> 00:37:31.700
 the

00:37:31.700 --> 00:37:32.580
 your

00:37:32.579 --> 00:37:33.000
 work

00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:33.400
 in

00:37:33.400 --> 00:37:33.739
 our

00:37:33.739 --> 00:37:34.219
 lives

00:37:34.219 --> 00:37:34.519
 in

00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:34.819
 the

00:37:34.819 --> 00:37:35.559
 answers

00:37:35.559 --> 00:37:36.139
 that you

00:37:36.139 --> 00:37:36.500
 give

00:37:36.500 --> 00:37:36.940
 in terms

00:37:36.940 --> 00:37:37.119
 of

00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:37.440
 prayer

00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:39.219
 but Lord

00:37:39.219 --> 00:37:39.539
 I pray

00:37:39.539 --> 00:37:40.239
 that we

00:37:40.239 --> 00:37:40.519
 wouldn't

00:37:40.519 --> 00:37:41.019
 just see

00:37:41.019 --> 00:37:41.239
 you

00:37:41.239 --> 00:37:41.860
 as this

00:37:41.860 --> 00:37:42.279
 vending

00:37:42.279 --> 00:37:42.840
 machine

00:37:42.840 --> 00:37:43.239
 as it

00:37:43.239 --> 00:37:43.460
 were

00:37:43.460 --> 00:37:44.759
 but that

00:37:44.759 --> 00:37:45.019
 we would

00:37:45.019 --> 00:37:45.360
 come

00:37:45.360 --> 00:37:46.360
 to worship

00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:47.299
 the Savior

00:37:47.299 --> 00:37:48.960
 we would

00:37:48.960 --> 00:37:49.380
 lay down

00:37:49.380 --> 00:37:50.279
 our lives

00:37:50.279 --> 00:37:50.940
 for you

00:37:50.940 --> 00:37:51.299
 and that

00:37:51.299 --> 00:37:51.699
 we would

00:37:51.699 --> 00:37:53.659
 learn to

00:37:53.659 --> 00:37:54.079
 depend on

00:37:54.079 --> 00:37:54.319
 you in

00:37:54.319 --> 00:37:54.719
 every way

00:37:54.719 --> 00:37:55.819
 that our

00:37:55.819 --> 00:37:56.619
 faith in

00:37:56.619 --> 00:37:56.900
 you would

00:37:56.900 --> 00:37:57.259
 not be

00:37:57.259 --> 00:37:57.759
 superficial

00:37:57.759 --> 00:37:59.199
 like the

00:37:59.199 --> 00:37:59.639
 believing

00:37:59.639 --> 00:38:00.460
 in Jerusalem

00:38:00.460 --> 00:38:01.319
 was on

00:38:01.319 --> 00:38:01.579
 this

00:38:01.579 --> 00:38:02.059
 triumphal

00:38:02.059 --> 00:38:02.400
 entry

00:38:02.400 --> 00:38:03.680
 and may

00:38:03.680 --> 00:38:03.960
 our

00:38:03.960 --> 00:38:04.720
 celebration

00:38:04.720 --> 00:38:05.680
 not be

00:38:05.680 --> 00:38:06.139
 temporary

00:38:06.139 --> 00:38:07.200
 but it

00:38:07.200 --> 00:38:07.480
 might be

00:38:07.480 --> 00:38:07.840
 the kind

00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:08.360
 of celebration

00:38:08.360 --> 00:38:08.880
 we see

00:38:08.880 --> 00:38:09.440
 in Revelation

00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:10.680
 chapter 7

00:38:10.680 --> 00:38:11.820
 where standing

00:38:11.820 --> 00:38:12.260
 around the

00:38:12.260 --> 00:38:12.519
 throne

00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:12.960
 are the

00:38:12.960 --> 00:38:13.619
 nations

00:38:13.619 --> 00:38:14.360
 and tribes

00:38:14.360 --> 00:38:15.059
 and languages

00:38:15.059 --> 00:38:16.039
 of people

00:38:16.039 --> 00:38:16.700
 who have

00:38:16.700 --> 00:38:17.200
 come to

00:38:17.200 --> 00:38:17.780
 embrace

00:38:17.780 --> 00:38:18.500
 the reality

00:38:18.500 --> 00:38:18.780
 of the

00:38:18.780 --> 00:38:19.139
 Messiah

00:38:19.139 --> 00:38:20.200
 and there

00:38:20.200 --> 00:38:20.660
 they are

00:38:20.660 --> 00:38:21.980
 standing

00:38:21.980 --> 00:38:22.460
 before your

00:38:22.460 --> 00:38:22.780
 throne

00:38:22.780 --> 00:38:23.740
 celebrating

00:38:23.740 --> 00:38:25.000
 and worshiping

00:38:25.000 --> 00:38:25.920

00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:26.420
 together

00:38:26.420 --> 00:38:27.440
 may that be

00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:27.780
 true

00:38:27.780 --> 00:38:29.240
 of us

00:38:29.240 --> 00:38:30.019
 as well

00:38:30.019 --> 00:38:30.380
 we pray

00:38:30.380 --> 00:38:30.740
 in Jesus

00:38:30.740 --> 00:38:31.119
