00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.780
 Go ahead and take your Bibles over to Mark chapter 12 this morning.

00:00:02.899 --> 00:00:08.620
 Mark chapter 12 as we continue on in our series here through the Gospel of Mark.

00:00:09.140 --> 00:00:14.540
 And, you know, the one thing that you'll see today is that, you know, we talk a lot today about misinformation.

00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:17.379
 There's always a lot of misinformation throughout history.

00:00:18.199 --> 00:00:24.980
 And you're going to see here as they bring some misinformation to Jesus, and Jesus clarifies their confusion.

00:00:24.980 --> 00:00:32.399
 And clarifies those things as a full gamut of leaders, as you remember, have come to Jesus.

00:00:33.060 --> 00:00:38.719
 And asked Him questions as He's there in the temple on Tuesday of that final week.

00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:46.400
 There, and we find that He'd been addressed by the priests and the scribes and the elders, the Pharisees,

00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:52.760
 along with the Herodians and all those that began questioning His authority.

00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:59.119
 Both that physical authority and even His spiritual authority of the things that He spoke.

00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.659
 And their desire, though, we need to understand, because people ask questions.

00:01:02.699 --> 00:01:05.039
 You always got to remember, people ask questions for two reasons.

00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:12.379
 Some people ask questions for information that they might grow and learn and understand.

00:01:13.579 --> 00:01:18.219
 And other people ask questions oftentimes to try to manipulate or divide.

00:01:18.219 --> 00:01:25.340
 And we're going to see here that they had come to Jesus with that idea in mind.

00:01:25.459 --> 00:01:31.920
 It was not to learn or understand, but it was to discredit Jesus before the people.

00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:40.799
 And we find here that Jesus answered all of them well, revealing either their evil intent to their heart

00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:43.920
 or their lack of understanding of Scripture.

00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:49.560
 And Jesus clearly answered the question just earlier that we had looked at,

00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:53.019
 this question of church and state, you know,

00:01:53.219 --> 00:01:56.599
 what belongs our obligation to the state and which to God.

00:01:57.180 --> 00:01:59.420
 And I encourage you to stick around for Sunday school,

00:01:59.500 --> 00:02:03.840
 because we're going to talk about that some more in Sunday school with the things coming up.

00:02:03.980 --> 00:02:08.879
 And so that's my 30-second commercial for you to stick around for Sunday school, okay?

00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:13.879
 And because we're going to be talking about some things that are important there.

00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:17.799
 But also we find here the next group that presented themselves

00:02:17.799 --> 00:02:23.099
 were a very powerful religious and political group called the Sadducees.

00:02:23.859 --> 00:02:28.680
 They came with an absurd question that is interesting.

00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:32.019
 As you're going to see here, they didn't even believe their own question to be true.

00:02:32.020 --> 00:02:36.280
 You know, that's interesting.

00:02:36.380 --> 00:02:40.300
 Somebody asks a question based on something that they don't even believe to be true.

00:02:41.460 --> 00:02:44.780
 And so we're going to see how this comes together here this morning.

00:02:44.900 --> 00:02:47.860
 So if you've found in your Bible Mark chapter 12,

00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:51.120
 let's stand together in the honor of reading of the Word of God.

00:02:51.200 --> 00:02:53.879
 If you can stand with us here as we read.

00:02:54.260 --> 00:02:57.180
 And we notice here, it tells us in verse 18,

00:02:57.180 --> 00:03:27.159
 It says,

00:03:27.180 --> 00:03:29.520
 And the seven had her and left no seed.

00:03:29.700 --> 00:03:31.439
 Last of all, the woman died also.

00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:36.020
 In the resurrection, therefore, when they shall rise,

00:03:36.379 --> 00:03:38.260
 whose wife shall she be of them?

00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:40.560
 For the seven had her to wife.

00:03:40.659 --> 00:03:43.340
 And Jesus answering said unto them,

00:03:43.420 --> 00:03:44.760
 Do ye not therefore err,

00:03:45.200 --> 00:03:47.020
 because ye know not the Scriptures,

00:03:47.379 --> 00:03:49.460
 neither the power of God.

00:03:49.980 --> 00:03:52.240
 For when they shall rise from the dead,

00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:56.140
 they neither marry nor are given in marriage,

00:03:56.139 --> 00:03:58.199
 but are as the angels which are in heaven.

00:03:58.479 --> 00:04:00.639
 And as touching the dead, that they arise,

00:04:00.739 --> 00:04:01.399
 that they have not,

00:04:01.619 --> 00:04:03.319
 have ye not read in the book of Moses,

00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:06.159
 how that in the bush God spake unto him,

00:04:06.239 --> 00:04:06.500
 saying,

00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:07.779
 I am the God of Abraham,

00:04:08.279 --> 00:04:09.919
 and the God of Isaac,

00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:10.959
 and the God of Jacob.

00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:12.899
 He is not the God of the dead,

00:04:12.899 --> 00:04:14.579
 but the God of the living.

00:04:15.399 --> 00:04:18.599
 Ye therefore do greatly err.

00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:19.960
 Let's pray.

00:04:20.060 --> 00:04:20.620
 Heavenly Father,

00:04:20.740 --> 00:04:22.360
 as we come before you this morning,

00:04:22.460 --> 00:04:23.920
 Lord, we're thankful for your word.

00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:25.540
 We're thankful for the opportunity

00:04:25.540 --> 00:04:29.540
 as we have this morning to know the truth,

00:04:29.660 --> 00:04:29.760
 Lord,

00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:32.220
 that we don't have to err when it comes to things

00:04:32.220 --> 00:04:33.580
 about the Scripture,

00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:33.920
 Lord,

00:04:33.960 --> 00:04:35.580
 that you have those things laid out.

00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:38.860
 You have the things that we need from day to day,

00:04:38.939 --> 00:04:40.939
 and even to understand not only the present,

00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:43.379
 but to have an understanding and grasp

00:04:43.379 --> 00:04:45.480
 of the future and the responsibility

00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:48.719
 that is contained in it.

00:04:48.819 --> 00:04:49.040
 And Lord,

00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:51.120
 we pray just have your hand upon each one today,

00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:51.399
 Lord,

00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:53.740
 you know each soul here this morning,

00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:54.000
 Lord,

00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:56.779
 you know each one of the things in their heart,

00:04:56.939 --> 00:04:57.899
 even here today,

00:04:58.019 --> 00:04:58.159
 Lord,

00:04:58.240 --> 00:04:59.279
 you might just challenge,

00:04:59.459 --> 00:04:59.819
 encourage,

00:05:00.060 --> 00:05:00.459
 convict,

00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:01.159
 Lord,

00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:02.920
 you know the need of each one this morning,

00:05:03.060 --> 00:05:03.159
 Lord,

00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:04.519
 if there's one that's not sure

00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:06.819
 about where they stand with you today,

00:05:07.259 --> 00:05:07.420
 Lord,

00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:08.540
 that that might be the day

00:05:08.540 --> 00:05:10.579
 that they would call upon you

00:05:10.579 --> 00:05:12.620
 and have that settled before you.

00:05:12.699 --> 00:05:12.939
 And Lord,

00:05:12.939 --> 00:05:15.160
 we just give you all the praise in Jesus' name.

00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:16.240
 Amen.

00:05:16.819 --> 00:05:17.439
 May be seated.

00:05:17.620 --> 00:05:17.740
 You know,

00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:18.879
 as we see here this morning,

00:05:19.540 --> 00:05:22.000
 most questions about spiritual things

00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:24.939
 are oftentimes built or based

00:05:24.939 --> 00:05:26.699
 in ignorant presuppositions

00:05:26.699 --> 00:05:27.740
 or false assumptions.

00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:28.779
 You know,

00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:31.360
 many of the questions you face spiritually today,

00:05:31.740 --> 00:05:33.699
 people come with false assumptions

00:05:33.699 --> 00:05:34.620
 attached to them.

00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:36.159
 Things that they've heard,

00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:38.040
 things that they assume,

00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:39.480
 or things that,

00:05:39.699 --> 00:05:40.079
 you know,

00:05:40.139 --> 00:05:40.740
 today it's,

00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:41.839
 I Googled it,

00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:42.839
 and this is what it said.

00:05:42.939 --> 00:05:43.240
 You know,

00:05:43.300 --> 00:05:43.719
 it's like,

00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:46.660
 it's written someplace

00:05:46.660 --> 00:05:47.899
 or somebody said it,

00:05:47.939 --> 00:05:49.160
 so they take it as fact

00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:50.500
 and they begin to operate

00:05:50.500 --> 00:05:52.920
 on that information.

00:05:54.120 --> 00:05:54.420
 And that,

00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:54.680
 you know,

00:05:54.719 --> 00:05:55.500
 I want you to know

00:05:55.500 --> 00:05:56.899
 that that gets us in a lot of trouble

00:05:56.899 --> 00:05:57.800
 when we operate

00:05:57.800 --> 00:05:58.779
 with information

00:05:58.779 --> 00:05:59.680
 that's not true.

00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:01.800
 Whether intentionally

00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:02.959
 or unintentionally.

00:06:03.699 --> 00:06:04.699
 We need to make sure

00:06:04.699 --> 00:06:05.600
 what we're doing

00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:07.279
 is true

00:06:07.279 --> 00:06:08.899
 and has a standard

00:06:08.899 --> 00:06:10.120
 behind it.

00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:11.579
 and we find here

00:06:11.579 --> 00:06:12.180
 that even,

00:06:12.259 --> 00:06:13.379
 even many empty

00:06:13.379 --> 00:06:14.639
 and wicked arguments

00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:15.920
 that just lead

00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:17.060
 to fruitless discussions

00:06:17.060 --> 00:06:18.660
 are built on the same case

00:06:18.660 --> 00:06:19.840
 that we're going to see here today

00:06:19.840 --> 00:06:21.420
 as the Sadducees,

00:06:21.540 --> 00:06:21.800
 because you,

00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:22.519
 I want you to understand,

00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:23.620
 the Sadducees came

00:06:23.620 --> 00:06:24.459
 for an argument

00:06:24.459 --> 00:06:25.800
 and to discredit Jesus.

00:06:26.060 --> 00:06:26.959
 They didn't come

00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:28.340
 to get their question answered.

00:06:29.620 --> 00:06:30.879
 They really didn't care

00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:32.340
 how Jesus answered the question.

00:06:32.340 --> 00:06:33.600
 Their goal

00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:35.200
 was to cause

00:06:35.200 --> 00:06:36.100
 a disagreement.

00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:37.800
 Their goal

00:06:37.800 --> 00:06:39.720
 was to discredit Jesus

00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:40.720
 by maybe something

00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:41.439
 that he said.

00:06:42.520 --> 00:06:43.780
 And we can learn a lot

00:06:43.780 --> 00:06:44.620
 when it comes to this

00:06:44.620 --> 00:06:45.260
 from Jesus,

00:06:45.400 --> 00:06:46.060
 but I want you to see

00:06:46.060 --> 00:06:46.760
 how Jesus

00:06:46.760 --> 00:06:48.480
 responds here

00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:50.040
 as the Sadducees

00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:51.500
 come with this question

00:06:51.500 --> 00:06:53.180
 and I want you to understand

00:06:53.180 --> 00:06:54.460
 it's built upon something

00:06:54.460 --> 00:06:56.060
 that they did not even believe.

00:06:57.560 --> 00:06:59.740
 Because the Bible reveals to us

00:06:59.740 --> 00:07:01.060
 and history reveals to us

00:07:01.060 --> 00:07:01.660
 something interesting

00:07:01.660 --> 00:07:02.800
 about the Sadducees.

00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:04.540
 This group of people

00:07:04.540 --> 00:07:05.460
 didn't even believe

00:07:05.460 --> 00:07:06.220
 in the resurrection.

00:07:06.660 --> 00:07:07.819
 So why are they asking

00:07:07.819 --> 00:07:08.900
 a question about

00:07:08.900 --> 00:07:10.439
 the outcome of the resurrection

00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:11.800
 when they don't even believe in it?

00:07:11.980 --> 00:07:13.460
 Makes you start wondering,

00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:13.960
 doesn't it?

00:07:14.860 --> 00:07:16.740
 But it reveals their intent,

00:07:16.900 --> 00:07:18.720
 reveals their heart behind it

00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:20.240
 of what they were doing

00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:21.519
 because they didn't want

00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:23.519
 a conversation.

00:07:24.220 --> 00:07:25.439
 They wanted an argument.

00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:27.240
 They wanted to entangle Jesus

00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:28.920
 in his words.

00:07:29.019 --> 00:07:29.939
 And we find here

00:07:29.939 --> 00:07:32.180
 the conjecture of the Sadducees.

00:07:32.180 --> 00:07:32.420
 You know,

00:07:32.459 --> 00:07:33.860
 they conjectured some things here.

00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:35.000
 They conjured up

00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:36.939
 was something that contained

00:07:36.939 --> 00:07:38.500
 some misunderstandings,

00:07:38.699 --> 00:07:39.720
 some conclusions

00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:40.900
 that were not correct.

00:07:41.019 --> 00:07:41.180
 You know,

00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:42.639
 today we call that misinformation.

00:07:44.300 --> 00:07:45.639
 They came to Jesus

00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:46.699
 with a lot of things

00:07:46.699 --> 00:07:47.920
 mangled in there

00:07:47.920 --> 00:07:49.139
 that they were trying

00:07:49.139 --> 00:07:49.819
 to promote

00:07:49.819 --> 00:07:51.040
 as what was true.

00:07:51.460 --> 00:07:53.259
 And the worst part about it,

00:07:53.579 --> 00:07:54.759
 like any misinformation,

00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:56.340
 and the devil's a master

00:07:56.340 --> 00:07:57.120
 of misinformation.

00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:57.360
 information.

00:07:58.579 --> 00:08:01.579
 Because the best deceiving information

00:08:01.579 --> 00:08:03.879
 is built upon something

00:08:03.879 --> 00:08:05.540
 that has some truth

00:08:05.540 --> 00:08:06.500
 contained in it.

00:08:07.780 --> 00:08:09.139
 Because we grab a hold

00:08:09.139 --> 00:08:10.300
 of what we hear of the truth

00:08:10.300 --> 00:08:11.519
 and assume the rest of it

00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:12.120
 to be so.

00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:15.019
 We need to be careful

00:08:15.019 --> 00:08:15.800
 that the truth

00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:17.300
 that we grab a hold of

00:08:17.300 --> 00:08:19.160
 is actually being expressed correctly.

00:08:20.280 --> 00:08:21.959
 Being presented correctly

00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:22.939
 to those things.

00:08:22.939 --> 00:08:24.300
 And we find here

00:08:24.300 --> 00:08:25.120
 that what they're doing

00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:25.959
 is they're combining

00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:27.240
 a command

00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:28.899
 with a truth

00:08:28.899 --> 00:08:29.980
 that was absurd

00:08:29.980 --> 00:08:30.899
 in their mind

00:08:30.899 --> 00:08:32.480
 because we're going to see here,

00:08:32.539 --> 00:08:33.399
 take a look with me

00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:34.539
 what they say here.

00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:35.779
 Look at verse 19

00:08:35.779 --> 00:08:36.980
 in our text.

00:08:37.139 --> 00:08:37.320
 It says,

00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:37.879
 Master,

00:08:38.279 --> 00:08:39.779
 Moses wrote unto us,

00:08:39.860 --> 00:08:41.120
 if a man's brother die

00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:42.899
 and leave his wife behind

00:08:42.899 --> 00:08:44.039
 and leave no children,

00:08:44.799 --> 00:08:46.759
 that his brother

00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:47.860
 should take his wife

00:08:47.860 --> 00:08:48.980
 and raise up seed

00:08:48.980 --> 00:08:50.399
 unto his brother.

00:08:50.860 --> 00:08:52.360
 Now there were seven brethren.

00:08:52.940 --> 00:08:54.980
 Do you see how this builds?

00:08:55.880 --> 00:08:57.200
 Because I want you to understand

00:08:57.200 --> 00:08:58.600
 what they're talking about here

00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:00.840
 is something God had commanded

00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:01.900
 the children of Israel.

00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:04.440
 Deuteronomy chapter 25,

00:09:04.600 --> 00:09:05.240
 you can go back

00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:05.880
 and read it later

00:09:05.880 --> 00:09:07.280
 because this isn't really

00:09:07.280 --> 00:09:09.220
 dealing with leveret marriage.

00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:11.280
 This is just the thing

00:09:11.280 --> 00:09:11.900
 that they brought

00:09:11.900 --> 00:09:12.980
 into this equation.

00:09:13.520 --> 00:09:14.520
 But I'll summarize

00:09:14.520 --> 00:09:15.780
 leveret marriage for you.

00:09:15.860 --> 00:09:16.800
 It's simply this,

00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:18.980
 that because the children of Israel

00:09:18.980 --> 00:09:20.540
 were all going to be given

00:09:20.540 --> 00:09:22.700
 a specific heritage

00:09:22.700 --> 00:09:24.540
 a specific inheritance

00:09:24.540 --> 00:09:25.460
 in the land

00:09:25.460 --> 00:09:29.580
 that family was to raise up an heir.

00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:32.040
 And so what God did

00:09:32.040 --> 00:09:33.220
 with leveret marriage,

00:09:33.280 --> 00:09:34.140
 and I want you to understand,

00:09:34.259 --> 00:09:35.300
 it wasn't just something

00:09:35.300 --> 00:09:37.160
 that the children of Israel were doing.

00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:39.120
 It's recorded that other customs

00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:40.060
 and other cultures

00:09:40.060 --> 00:09:41.540
 practiced this same thing.

00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:43.300
 What the brother would do,

00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:45.060
 another brother would come

00:09:45.060 --> 00:09:47.520
 and redeem that man's wife

00:09:47.520 --> 00:09:49.259
 if he died without an heir.

00:09:49.259 --> 00:09:51.620
 And he would take her as a wife

00:09:51.620 --> 00:09:52.279
 to do what?

00:09:52.340 --> 00:09:53.539
 To raise up an heir

00:09:53.539 --> 00:09:54.340
 unto his brother.

00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:56.759
 The child born,

00:09:56.860 --> 00:09:58.000
 the first born child

00:09:58.000 --> 00:09:59.379
 would not be considered his,

00:09:59.460 --> 00:10:01.080
 it would be considered his brother's

00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:03.439
 to inherit his brother's inheritance.

00:10:04.600 --> 00:10:05.139
 In other words,

00:10:05.179 --> 00:10:06.580
 it was a way of preservation

00:10:06.580 --> 00:10:08.360
 among the lineage

00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:09.139
 and the heritage.

00:10:10.419 --> 00:10:10.659
 You know?

00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:12.000
 Now that's not something

00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:13.059
 we practice today,

00:10:13.139 --> 00:10:14.100
 but I want you to understand

00:10:14.100 --> 00:10:15.100
 what they're talking about

00:10:15.100 --> 00:10:15.960
 was something God

00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:17.320
 had told Israel

00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:18.780
 for a specific purpose

00:10:18.780 --> 00:10:20.280
 and had merit

00:10:20.280 --> 00:10:21.519
 and some teeth behind it

00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:23.000
 because God had instructed it

00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:23.980
 to the children of Israel.

00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:25.900
 So they're taking something there

00:10:25.900 --> 00:10:27.320
 and so simply,

00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:29.200
 this dynamic was there

00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:30.340
 and the Sadducees

00:10:30.340 --> 00:10:32.080
 used this law

00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:33.920
 and the expectation

00:10:33.920 --> 00:10:36.120
 of the resurrection

00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:38.340
 to invent an absurd situation

00:10:38.340 --> 00:10:40.600
 in a thinly veiled attempt

00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:42.000
 to trap Jesus.

00:10:42.800 --> 00:10:43.900
 Because we see here

00:10:43.900 --> 00:10:45.139
 as it goes on down through,

00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:45.500
 it says,

00:10:45.500 --> 00:10:46.100
 what,

00:10:46.179 --> 00:10:47.120
 that they went through

00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:48.299
 all seven brothers

00:10:48.299 --> 00:10:50.120
 and all seven brothers died

00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:51.159
 and they had no heir

00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:53.639
 and then they look at Jesus,

00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:54.480
 I can just imagine,

00:10:54.580 --> 00:10:55.360
 the more I read this,

00:10:55.419 --> 00:10:56.120
 the more I can just see

00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:57.419
 the smug look on their face

00:10:57.419 --> 00:10:58.659
 thinking we got him.

00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:01.159
 Have you ever noticed that

00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:01.539
 when sometimes

00:11:01.539 --> 00:11:02.220
 when people are trying

00:11:02.220 --> 00:11:02.740
 to trick you

00:11:02.740 --> 00:11:03.779
 and try to get over on you,

00:11:03.820 --> 00:11:04.740
 it's like they have to get

00:11:04.740 --> 00:11:05.879
 that smugness to them

00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:06.220
 to say,

00:11:06.440 --> 00:11:07.659
 this one will trap

00:11:07.659 --> 00:11:08.700
 and there's no way out.

00:11:08.860 --> 00:11:09.940
 In the resurrection,

00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:13.860
 whose wife is she?

00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:14.480
 They're like,

00:11:14.519 --> 00:11:15.220
 oh, we got him.

00:11:15.500 --> 00:11:17.980
 Now I want you to understand

00:11:17.980 --> 00:11:18.840
 in that little tidbit

00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:19.340
 of history

00:11:19.340 --> 00:11:20.200
 that's important here,

00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:21.320
 the Pharisees

00:11:21.320 --> 00:11:22.940
 had promoted

00:11:22.940 --> 00:11:23.779
 among the people

00:11:23.779 --> 00:11:25.340
 that the wife

00:11:25.340 --> 00:11:26.799
 would belong back

00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:27.659
 to the resurrected

00:11:27.659 --> 00:11:28.500
 first husband.

00:11:28.500 --> 00:11:31.159
 but you know what?

00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:32.019
 It's interesting here,

00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:35.039
 Jesus deflates all of them

00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:38.379
 because he reveals them.

00:11:38.440 --> 00:11:38.639
 He says,

00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:39.860
 you guys greatly err,

00:11:39.980 --> 00:11:41.399
 you don't even understand

00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:43.039
 what's happening.

00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:44.620
 You don't understand

00:11:44.620 --> 00:11:45.299
 the scripture.

00:11:45.860 --> 00:11:46.779
 You don't understand

00:11:46.779 --> 00:11:47.759
 how these things

00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:49.000
 are happening

00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:50.299
 and what the word of God

00:11:50.299 --> 00:11:50.500
 says

00:11:51.259 --> 00:11:52.539
 and this is a very

00:11:52.539 --> 00:11:54.000
 extreme story

00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:55.840
 but yet we see here

00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:57.179
 this dynamic

00:11:57.179 --> 00:11:58.700
 and the point of it

00:11:58.700 --> 00:11:59.419
 is the resurrection

00:11:59.419 --> 00:12:00.559
 of the dead

00:12:00.559 --> 00:12:01.899
 and the conflict

00:12:01.899 --> 00:12:03.200
 that was going to be caused.

00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:03.899
 You know,

00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:05.460
 over in Acts chapter 23,

00:12:05.460 --> 00:12:06.240
 you'll find

00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:08.320
 that this was a conflict

00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:09.539
 amongst the Jews

00:12:09.539 --> 00:12:10.519
 about resurrection.

00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:12.419
 Because remember

00:12:12.419 --> 00:12:13.840
 in Acts chapter 23,

00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:15.059
 you'll find over there

00:12:15.059 --> 00:12:16.340
 in verse 6

00:12:16.340 --> 00:12:17.659
 that the apostle Paul

00:12:17.659 --> 00:12:19.159
 was being addressed.

00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:20.480
 Both the Sadducees

00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:21.339
 and the Pharisees

00:12:21.339 --> 00:12:22.480
 wanted Paul arrested.

00:12:22.860 --> 00:12:24.000
 So what does Paul do?

00:12:24.100 --> 00:12:25.000
 Notice what he says

00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:25.860
 and Paul perceived

00:12:25.860 --> 00:12:26.719
 that in one part

00:12:26.719 --> 00:12:27.899
 were Sadducees

00:12:27.899 --> 00:12:28.919
 and the other Pharisees

00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:29.759
 he cried out

00:12:29.759 --> 00:12:30.559
 in the council,

00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:31.620
 Ben and brother

00:12:31.620 --> 00:12:32.659
 I am a Pharisee,

00:12:32.740 --> 00:12:33.719
 a son of a Pharisee,

00:12:33.980 --> 00:12:34.579
 of the hope

00:12:34.579 --> 00:12:35.379
 of the resurrection

00:12:35.379 --> 00:12:35.980
 of the dead

00:12:35.980 --> 00:12:37.399
 I am called in question.

00:12:37.959 --> 00:12:38.679
 Now notice this,

00:12:38.740 --> 00:12:39.839
 and when he had so said

00:12:39.839 --> 00:12:40.919
 there arose a dissension

00:12:40.919 --> 00:12:42.199
 between the Pharisees

00:12:42.199 --> 00:12:43.799
 and the Sadducees

00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:44.839
 and the multitude

00:12:44.839 --> 00:12:45.679
 was divided.

00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:49.199
 Now that happened later

00:12:49.199 --> 00:12:50.120
 but I wanted to bring

00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:51.679
 that out so you realize

00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:53.399
 what were the Sadducees

00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:54.120
 trying to do?

00:12:54.219 --> 00:12:54.959
 They were not trying

00:12:54.959 --> 00:12:55.879
 to get their question answered,

00:12:55.959 --> 00:12:56.379
 they were trying

00:12:56.379 --> 00:12:57.319
 to cause division.

00:12:59.199 --> 00:13:00.199
 Their question

00:13:00.199 --> 00:13:01.879
 was built to be deceptive.

00:13:02.179 --> 00:13:03.279
 And so when we see here

00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:03.879
 their goal

00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:05.299
 was that division

00:13:05.299 --> 00:13:06.559
 among those

00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:07.839
 listening to Jesus

00:13:07.839 --> 00:13:09.379
 and to understand

00:13:09.379 --> 00:13:10.139
 the story

00:13:10.139 --> 00:13:11.519
 that they had conjured up

00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:13.059
 was intertwined

00:13:13.059 --> 00:13:14.439
 with misunderstandings

00:13:14.439 --> 00:13:15.519
 and outright errors

00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:16.240
 from the scripture.

00:13:17.019 --> 00:13:17.639
 Even though,

00:13:17.819 --> 00:13:18.620
 I want you to understand,

00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:19.559
 the Sadducees

00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:20.759
 were highly educated.

00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:23.419
 They controlled

00:13:23.419 --> 00:13:24.259
 the priesthood.

00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:26.960
 They were political leaders.

00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:28.039
 I mean,

00:13:28.100 --> 00:13:28.620
 I want you to understand

00:13:28.620 --> 00:13:29.399
 they were wealthy,

00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:30.259
 they were a fluent

00:13:30.259 --> 00:13:31.279
 group of individuals.

00:13:32.199 --> 00:13:32.879
 They were actually

00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:33.720
 one of the smaller

00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:34.879
 political parties

00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:36.480
 of groups in Israel

00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:37.819
 but they maintained

00:13:37.819 --> 00:13:39.500
 a large chunk of power.

00:13:41.539 --> 00:13:42.639
 And they were there

00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:44.100
 trying to disrupt this

00:13:44.100 --> 00:13:45.060
 because Jesus

00:13:45.060 --> 00:13:46.840
 was a threat

00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:47.560
 to their power.

00:13:47.659 --> 00:13:48.259
 Now let me give you

00:13:48.259 --> 00:13:49.420
 a little bit of history

00:13:49.420 --> 00:13:50.100
 why they might have

00:13:50.100 --> 00:13:50.860
 been so upset

00:13:50.860 --> 00:13:52.120
 because you remember

00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:53.220
 just a few days before

00:13:53.220 --> 00:13:54.240
 what did Jesus do

00:13:54.240 --> 00:13:55.200
 when he went into the temple?

00:13:56.659 --> 00:13:57.680
 He overturned

00:13:57.680 --> 00:13:58.340
 all the tables

00:13:58.340 --> 00:13:59.399
 and ran all the people

00:13:59.399 --> 00:14:00.820
 in the market out.

00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:04.259
 History tells us

00:14:04.259 --> 00:14:05.440
 that the Sadducees

00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:06.740
 were the ones

00:14:06.740 --> 00:14:07.879
 who owned the marketplace.

00:14:08.560 --> 00:14:09.800
 Interesting how that happens,

00:14:09.899 --> 00:14:10.160
 isn't it?

00:14:10.159 --> 00:14:11.219
 You know?

00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:12.959
 So I want you to understand

00:14:12.959 --> 00:14:14.339
 what was going on here

00:14:14.339 --> 00:14:15.559
 and even though

00:14:15.559 --> 00:14:16.819
 they had all these things,

00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:18.319
 they were educated

00:14:18.319 --> 00:14:19.100
 in Scripture,

00:14:19.860 --> 00:14:21.659
 they knew what things

00:14:21.659 --> 00:14:22.419
 had been said,

00:14:22.539 --> 00:14:23.839
 they wanted to promote

00:14:23.839 --> 00:14:24.659
 though their own

00:14:24.659 --> 00:14:26.179
 ideology and authority

00:14:26.179 --> 00:14:27.860
 and they came thinking

00:14:27.860 --> 00:14:28.939
 that they knew

00:14:28.939 --> 00:14:29.639
 and understood

00:14:29.639 --> 00:14:30.279
 the Scripture

00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:31.480
 better than Jesus.

00:14:32.959 --> 00:14:34.120
 Now that's pretty tough.

00:14:34.199 --> 00:14:34.679
 That'd be like

00:14:34.679 --> 00:14:35.419
 going down

00:14:35.419 --> 00:14:37.899
 to the bookstore

00:14:37.899 --> 00:14:39.360
 where an author's there

00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:40.879
 promoting their book.

00:14:41.959 --> 00:14:42.819
 Can you imagine

00:14:42.819 --> 00:14:43.699
 somebody walking up

00:14:43.699 --> 00:14:44.779
 to the author of the book,

00:14:44.959 --> 00:14:45.860
 I want to tell you

00:14:45.860 --> 00:14:46.480
 what you wrote

00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:47.179
 and what you meant.

00:14:47.419 --> 00:14:48.000
 Now if you saw

00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:48.699
 somebody do that,

00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:49.299
 what would you do?

00:14:51.139 --> 00:14:51.939
 You'd probably just

00:14:51.939 --> 00:14:52.699
 shake your head going,

00:14:52.819 --> 00:14:53.759
 what are you thinking?

00:14:54.139 --> 00:14:54.980
 But literally,

00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:56.480
 that's what the Sadducees

00:14:56.480 --> 00:14:57.360
 did that day.

00:14:58.500 --> 00:14:59.439
 They literally,

00:14:59.659 --> 00:15:00.699
 not even knowing it,

00:15:00.740 --> 00:15:01.220
 they went up

00:15:01.220 --> 00:15:02.439
 to the author of the book

00:15:02.439 --> 00:15:02.779
 and said,

00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:03.519
 let me tell you

00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:04.179
 how to interpret

00:15:04.179 --> 00:15:04.919
 what you wrote.

00:15:05.179 --> 00:15:06.019
 Not a good chance

00:15:06.019 --> 00:15:06.819
 or a good look,

00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:07.139
 is it?

00:15:07.899 --> 00:15:09.340
 Because I want you

00:15:09.340 --> 00:15:09.840
 to see here

00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:10.899
 what takes place.

00:15:11.860 --> 00:15:13.779
 Because when we understand

00:15:13.779 --> 00:15:15.939
 that the Sadducees

00:15:15.939 --> 00:15:17.199
 were like many today,

00:15:17.579 --> 00:15:18.639
 they rejected

00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:20.120
 anything from Scripture

00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:21.220
 that didn't align

00:15:21.220 --> 00:15:22.620
 with their concept

00:15:22.620 --> 00:15:23.879
 of life.

00:15:24.620 --> 00:15:24.799
 You know,

00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:25.980
 this life

00:15:25.980 --> 00:15:27.559
 was their primary focus

00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:28.939
 as they didn't believe

00:15:28.939 --> 00:15:29.759
 in anything

00:15:29.759 --> 00:15:31.740
 different about the future.

00:15:31.860 --> 00:15:32.259
 They thought

00:15:32.259 --> 00:15:33.860
 everything was about today.

00:15:34.460 --> 00:15:34.759
 Therefore,

00:15:34.899 --> 00:15:36.100
 they lived for today.

00:15:36.659 --> 00:15:36.840
 You know,

00:15:36.840 --> 00:15:37.860
 similar ideas

00:15:37.860 --> 00:15:38.780
 are held

00:15:38.780 --> 00:15:39.680
 by many today

00:15:39.680 --> 00:15:40.519
 as they reject

00:15:40.519 --> 00:15:41.420
 the Bible

00:15:41.420 --> 00:15:42.660
 as God's standard

00:15:42.660 --> 00:15:43.320
 and direction

00:15:43.320 --> 00:15:44.040
 for life,

00:15:44.519 --> 00:15:45.820
 resulting in the absence

00:15:45.820 --> 00:15:46.480
 of hope

00:15:46.480 --> 00:15:47.960
 and no fear

00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:49.120
 of a future judgment.

00:15:49.980 --> 00:15:50.180
 You know,

00:15:50.220 --> 00:15:51.139
 today we understand

00:15:51.139 --> 00:15:52.340
 that people reject

00:15:52.340 --> 00:15:53.280
 the Word of God.

00:15:53.899 --> 00:15:54.920
 They talk about

00:15:54.920 --> 00:15:55.780
 the Word of God.

00:15:57.379 --> 00:15:57.980
 You know,

00:15:58.019 --> 00:15:58.879
 we have presidential

00:15:58.879 --> 00:15:59.960
 candidates who quote

00:15:59.960 --> 00:16:00.700
 the Word of God

00:16:00.700 --> 00:16:01.440
 and do a good job

00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:02.740
 of taking it out of context.

00:16:02.740 --> 00:16:04.039
 You can know

00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:04.980
 what it says,

00:16:05.100 --> 00:16:05.560
 but you better

00:16:05.560 --> 00:16:07.180
 understand what it says.

00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:08.240
 Because if we make

00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:09.180
 our own assumptions,

00:16:09.379 --> 00:16:10.060
 we'll get in trouble

00:16:10.060 --> 00:16:10.680
 and you might say,

00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:10.820
 well,

00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:11.620
 why do people make

00:16:11.620 --> 00:16:12.680
 false assumptions

00:16:12.680 --> 00:16:14.379
 about the Scripture?

00:16:14.539 --> 00:16:15.879
 Look over to John chapter 3

00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:16.460
 for a moment.

00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:18.960
 John chapter 3,

00:16:19.039 --> 00:16:19.860
 you'll find over here

00:16:19.860 --> 00:16:21.039
 in John chapter 3,

00:16:21.560 --> 00:16:22.200
 the problem

00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:23.419
 is the core of the issue

00:16:23.419 --> 00:16:24.000
 is the heart

00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:24.639
 of the individual.

00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:27.580
 Now notice what it says,

00:16:27.639 --> 00:16:29.019
 and this is the condemnation,

00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:29.620
 that light

00:16:29.620 --> 00:16:30.659
 has come into the world,

00:16:31.019 --> 00:16:32.700
 and men love darkness

00:16:32.700 --> 00:16:33.840
 rather than light

00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:34.519
 because what?

00:16:34.600 --> 00:16:35.340
 Their deeds

00:16:35.340 --> 00:16:36.799
 were evil.

00:16:38.340 --> 00:16:39.879
 Why were the Sadducees

00:16:39.879 --> 00:16:40.220
 upset?

00:16:40.460 --> 00:16:41.379
 Because Jesus

00:16:41.379 --> 00:16:42.779
 had confronted

00:16:42.779 --> 00:16:44.159
 their evil choices.

00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:46.879
 The choices

00:16:46.879 --> 00:16:47.679
 they were making

00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:48.600
 that were contrary

00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:49.820
 to the things of God,

00:16:50.259 --> 00:16:51.539
 Jesus had directly

00:16:51.539 --> 00:16:52.940
 conflicted

00:16:52.940 --> 00:16:54.039
 with what they thought.

00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:56.659
 He had disrupted

00:16:56.659 --> 00:16:57.960
 what they were doing.

00:16:58.080 --> 00:16:59.019
 Now notice it says

00:16:59.019 --> 00:16:59.840
 here in verse 20,

00:17:00.199 --> 00:17:00.740
 for everyone

00:17:00.740 --> 00:17:01.799
 that doeth evil

00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:02.699
 hateth the light,

00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:03.360
 neither cometh

00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:03.919
 to the light,

00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:05.259
 lest his deeds

00:17:05.259 --> 00:17:07.039
 should be reproved.

00:17:07.139 --> 00:17:08.139
 So here they come

00:17:08.139 --> 00:17:09.180
 with this totally

00:17:09.180 --> 00:17:10.980
 conjured up story,

00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:13.660
 totally absurd situation

00:17:13.660 --> 00:17:14.240
 that's like,

00:17:14.299 --> 00:17:14.519
 okay,

00:17:14.579 --> 00:17:15.139
 we'll get him

00:17:15.139 --> 00:17:15.859
 on this one.

00:17:16.379 --> 00:17:17.039
 We're going to use

00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:17.720
 the Word of God

00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:18.379
 to trap him.

00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:19.160
 But notice

00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:20.680
 what Jesus tells them here

00:17:20.680 --> 00:17:22.039
 because they thought

00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:22.700
 the first words

00:17:22.700 --> 00:17:23.720
 out of Jesus' mouth

00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:24.619
 was probably going to be

00:17:24.619 --> 00:17:25.980
 to address their question.

00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:28.900
 Look down at verse 24.

00:17:29.019 --> 00:17:31.420
 Notice what Jesus

00:17:31.420 --> 00:17:33.059
 says here in verse 24.

00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:34.180
 Do ye not

00:17:34.180 --> 00:17:35.240
 therefore what?

00:17:36.579 --> 00:17:37.019
 Err.

00:17:39.019 --> 00:17:40.119
 In other words,

00:17:40.599 --> 00:17:41.960
 Jesus has replied to him,

00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:42.259
 he says,

00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:42.660
 guys,

00:17:42.779 --> 00:17:43.599
 before we answer

00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:44.400
 the question,

00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:47.059
 we need to correct

00:17:47.059 --> 00:17:48.099
 the false assumptions.

00:17:49.799 --> 00:17:50.960
 We need to correct

00:17:50.960 --> 00:17:51.879
 the core issue

00:17:51.879 --> 00:17:52.720
 of your question

00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:53.740
 that's not accurate

00:17:53.740 --> 00:17:55.319
 because you have

00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:56.799
 a lack of understanding.

00:17:56.799 --> 00:17:58.000
 so we see Jesus here

00:17:58.000 --> 00:17:58.879
 is going to correct

00:17:58.879 --> 00:18:00.299
 the suppositions

00:18:00.299 --> 00:18:01.099
 that they brought.

00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:01.859
 You know,

00:18:02.099 --> 00:18:04.079
 Jesus' response

00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:05.879
 focuses on the error

00:18:05.879 --> 00:18:06.799
 and the misapplication

00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:08.220
 of Scripture.

00:18:09.259 --> 00:18:09.940
 If you wanted

00:18:09.940 --> 00:18:10.339
 to put it

00:18:10.339 --> 00:18:11.480
 in today's vernacular,

00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:12.440
 you might put it this way.

00:18:12.539 --> 00:18:13.480
 Jesus looked at him

00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:14.259
 and shook his head

00:18:14.259 --> 00:18:14.960
 and said,

00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:15.879
 you guys don't have a clue

00:18:15.879 --> 00:18:16.839
 what you're talking about.

00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:17.399
 You know?

00:18:19.619 --> 00:18:20.019
 Oftentimes,

00:18:20.399 --> 00:18:21.139
 we can understand,

00:18:21.279 --> 00:18:22.460
 people ask questions

00:18:22.460 --> 00:18:23.680
 trying to stir something up

00:18:23.680 --> 00:18:24.359
 and you'll look at them

00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:24.619
 and say,

00:18:24.680 --> 00:18:25.379
 you have no idea

00:18:25.380 --> 00:18:26.280
 what you're talking about.

00:18:28.360 --> 00:18:29.640
 The Sadducees

00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:31.100
 received that same type look,

00:18:31.160 --> 00:18:31.420
 I think,

00:18:31.460 --> 00:18:32.520
 from Jesus that day

00:18:32.520 --> 00:18:33.440
 where Jesus is like,

00:18:33.460 --> 00:18:34.380
 you did greatly error.

00:18:35.260 --> 00:18:36.480
 You have no idea

00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:37.600
 what you're really asking

00:18:37.600 --> 00:18:38.220
 because you have

00:18:38.220 --> 00:18:38.940
 no understanding

00:18:38.940 --> 00:18:40.160
 of how this fits together.

00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:43.080
 Why things were put that way.

00:18:44.360 --> 00:18:45.740
 The suppositions they brought

00:18:45.740 --> 00:18:47.060
 were both about marriage

00:18:47.060 --> 00:18:48.540
 and the resurrection.

00:18:48.900 --> 00:18:49.620
 Both of them

00:18:49.620 --> 00:18:50.300
 were incorrect.

00:18:51.780 --> 00:18:52.040
 Yes,

00:18:52.180 --> 00:18:54.340
 leverage was the proper thing

00:18:54.340 --> 00:18:55.320
 that they were to do

00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:56.460
 as the children of Israel

00:18:56.460 --> 00:18:58.759
 but their real question

00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:00.099
 had to do with marriage

00:19:00.099 --> 00:19:01.419
 and eternity

00:19:01.419 --> 00:19:02.679
 and marriage

00:19:02.679 --> 00:19:03.519
 and the resurrection.

00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:06.059
 He tells them

00:19:06.059 --> 00:19:07.240
 that they misunderstood

00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:08.960
 those things

00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:10.039
 about the word of God

00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:10.879
 because first,

00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:12.019
 they were ignorant

00:19:12.019 --> 00:19:13.179
 of the word of God.

00:19:13.700 --> 00:19:13.899
 Now,

00:19:13.980 --> 00:19:14.819
 I want you to know here

00:19:14.819 --> 00:19:15.960
 the Sadducees

00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:17.159
 only believed

00:19:17.159 --> 00:19:19.000
 the first five books,

00:19:19.079 --> 00:19:19.939
 the books of Moses.

00:19:20.879 --> 00:19:22.039
 All the other law

00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:22.819
 and the prophets,

00:19:22.819 --> 00:19:24.579
 all the other prophets,

00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:25.259
 all the others

00:19:25.259 --> 00:19:25.740
 that were there,

00:19:25.819 --> 00:19:26.700
 they didn't take that

00:19:26.700 --> 00:19:27.240
 as scripture.

00:19:28.799 --> 00:19:29.559
 That's already

00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:31.220
 a presupposition

00:19:31.220 --> 00:19:32.159
 on their part

00:19:32.159 --> 00:19:34.419
 and I want you to notice

00:19:34.419 --> 00:19:35.019
 as we're going to look

00:19:35.019 --> 00:19:35.599
 a little later,

00:19:35.720 --> 00:19:36.299
 it's interesting

00:19:36.299 --> 00:19:37.099
 that Jesus

00:19:37.099 --> 00:19:38.700
 proves this point

00:19:38.700 --> 00:19:39.460
 out of the portion

00:19:39.460 --> 00:19:39.919
 of scripture

00:19:39.919 --> 00:19:40.740
 that they believed

00:19:40.740 --> 00:19:42.619
 because he talks

00:19:42.619 --> 00:19:43.379
 about Moses

00:19:43.379 --> 00:19:44.460
 at the burning bush.

00:19:44.460 --> 00:19:45.259
 Jesus says,

00:19:45.380 --> 00:19:45.480
 well,

00:19:45.539 --> 00:19:46.559
 we can play this game

00:19:46.559 --> 00:19:47.340
 and we'll just go

00:19:47.340 --> 00:19:48.000
 to where you guys

00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:49.079
 say you already believe

00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:50.779
 so we'll skip the argument

00:19:50.779 --> 00:19:51.360
 and just say

00:19:51.360 --> 00:19:52.360
 this is what's going to be

00:19:52.360 --> 00:19:53.740
 but we'll look at this

00:19:53.740 --> 00:19:54.720
 because notice here

00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:55.460
 they rejected

00:19:55.460 --> 00:19:56.779
 the rest of the Old Testament.

00:19:57.700 --> 00:19:57.819
 Now,

00:19:57.900 --> 00:19:58.539
 I want you to understand

00:19:58.539 --> 00:19:59.980
 Isaiah chapter 8

00:19:59.980 --> 00:20:01.740
 tells us this,

00:20:01.799 --> 00:20:02.100
 it says,

00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:02.880
 to the law

00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:03.940
 and to the testimony,

00:20:04.860 --> 00:20:05.900
 if they speak not

00:20:05.900 --> 00:20:07.059
 according to this word

00:20:07.059 --> 00:20:08.000
 is because there is

00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:09.960
 no light in them.

00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:13.140
 Isaiah the prophet

00:20:13.140 --> 00:20:16.120
 pinned these people directly.

00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:17.340
 He says,

00:20:17.500 --> 00:20:19.079
 if you don't accept

00:20:19.079 --> 00:20:20.620
 the word of God,

00:20:21.660 --> 00:20:23.420
 there's error already

00:20:23.420 --> 00:20:24.579
 in everything that you say.

00:20:24.860 --> 00:20:26.019
 That is an understanding,

00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:26.720
 we need to understand

00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:27.579
 the importance

00:20:27.579 --> 00:20:28.920
 of the word of God

00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:29.779
 because rejecting

00:20:29.779 --> 00:20:30.900
 part of the scripture

00:20:30.900 --> 00:20:32.680
 will cause confusion

00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:33.720
 about the message

00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:35.340
 that God has given to us.

00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:36.180
 You know,

00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:37.819
 oftentimes people will say,

00:20:37.940 --> 00:20:37.980
 well,

00:20:38.039 --> 00:20:39.140
 I don't like that part

00:20:39.140 --> 00:20:39.600
 of scripture

00:20:39.599 --> 00:20:41.039
 so I'll just ignore that

00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:43.259
 or I'll spiritualize it

00:20:43.259 --> 00:20:44.519
 or I'll make it,

00:20:44.899 --> 00:20:45.219
 you know,

00:20:45.299 --> 00:20:46.819
 they'll just kind of say,

00:20:46.939 --> 00:20:47.000
 well,

00:20:47.059 --> 00:20:47.939
 I don't really think

00:20:47.939 --> 00:20:48.719
 that was accurate

00:20:48.719 --> 00:20:50.199
 or that's not for today.

00:20:50.439 --> 00:20:51.299
 Instead of saying,

00:20:51.459 --> 00:20:52.159
 instead of asking

00:20:52.159 --> 00:20:53.099
 is it for today,

00:20:53.500 --> 00:20:54.579
 what's the context

00:20:54.579 --> 00:20:55.959
 and what's the application

00:20:55.959 --> 00:20:57.539
 and how does it fit

00:20:57.539 --> 00:20:58.779
 in the whole scheme

00:20:58.779 --> 00:21:00.039
 and realm

00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:01.259
 of what God is doing?

00:21:02.059 --> 00:21:03.359
 How does it fit together

00:21:03.359 --> 00:21:04.279
 to understand

00:21:04.279 --> 00:21:05.240
 the word of God?

00:21:05.559 --> 00:21:06.379
 To understand

00:21:06.379 --> 00:21:07.279
 the big picture?

00:21:08.399 --> 00:21:08.679
 You know,

00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:09.620
 because we know here

00:21:09.620 --> 00:21:10.060
 that throughout

00:21:10.060 --> 00:21:11.019
 the Old Testament,

00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:11.980
 the resurrection

00:21:11.980 --> 00:21:14.259
 is spoken of very clearly

00:21:14.259 --> 00:21:15.620
 yet they didn't believe it.

00:21:16.600 --> 00:21:16.820
 You know,

00:21:16.860 --> 00:21:18.920
 consider Isaiah chapter 26.

00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:20.519
 Notice what it says,

00:21:20.620 --> 00:21:22.140
 thy dead shall live

00:21:22.140 --> 00:21:24.500
 together with my dead body

00:21:24.500 --> 00:21:25.560
 shall they what?

00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:27.259
 Arise,

00:21:27.720 --> 00:21:28.820
 awake and sing,

00:21:28.920 --> 00:21:30.200
 ye that dwell in where?

00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:32.340
 In dust.

00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:34.180
 You know,

00:21:34.180 --> 00:21:34.940
 I think this is just

00:21:34.940 --> 00:21:35.779
 one example

00:21:35.779 --> 00:21:36.720
 you can find

00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:38.480
 that the earth,

00:21:38.920 --> 00:21:40.200
 God is going to resurrect

00:21:40.200 --> 00:21:41.140
 physically

00:21:41.140 --> 00:21:42.880
 people.

00:21:44.700 --> 00:21:45.740
 The resurrection

00:21:45.740 --> 00:21:47.560
 was spoken of

00:21:47.560 --> 00:21:48.519
 in the Old Testament.

00:21:49.060 --> 00:21:49.299
 Notice,

00:21:49.460 --> 00:21:49.900
 and the earth

00:21:49.900 --> 00:21:51.220
 shall cast out the dead.

00:21:51.279 --> 00:21:52.460
 That's an interesting statement.

00:21:52.700 --> 00:21:54.279
 We could have to study that

00:21:54.279 --> 00:21:55.140
 some other time.

00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:55.620
 We don't have time

00:21:55.620 --> 00:21:56.460
 to get into all that,

00:21:56.519 --> 00:21:57.620
 but I want you to understand

00:21:57.620 --> 00:21:58.560
 the emphasis here

00:21:58.560 --> 00:21:59.299
 with this verse

00:21:59.299 --> 00:22:00.080
 and many others.

00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:01.960
 It's clear in the Old Testament

00:22:01.960 --> 00:22:03.559
 that resurrection was taught

00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:04.680
 and that God said

00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:05.160
 there's going to be

00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:05.720
 a resurrection.

00:22:08.600 --> 00:22:10.200
 That was not the question.

00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:11.360
 When we don't know

00:22:11.360 --> 00:22:12.160
 the Scriptures,

00:22:12.600 --> 00:22:13.000
 that is to,

00:22:13.360 --> 00:22:14.319
 the only way to know

00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:14.920
 the Scripture

00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:16.400
 is to study them

00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:17.220
 to know

00:22:17.220 --> 00:22:19.279
 how to rightly divide them.

00:22:20.079 --> 00:22:21.440
 When you rightly divide

00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:22.700
 the Word of God

00:22:22.700 --> 00:22:24.180
 means you put things

00:22:24.180 --> 00:22:25.940
 and understand them

00:22:25.940 --> 00:22:26.900
 in context.

00:22:28.799 --> 00:22:30.079
 How does it fit?

00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:31.840
 What's the big picture?

00:22:31.959 --> 00:22:32.059
 You know,

00:22:32.099 --> 00:22:32.599
 understand,

00:22:32.899 --> 00:22:33.119
 you know,

00:22:33.439 --> 00:22:34.199
 one of the things

00:22:34.199 --> 00:22:34.819
 that gets people

00:22:34.819 --> 00:22:35.500
 in a lot of trouble

00:22:35.500 --> 00:22:36.179
 is what I call

00:22:36.179 --> 00:22:37.319
 soundbite theology.

00:22:38.859 --> 00:22:39.980
 I believe something

00:22:39.980 --> 00:22:41.059
 and then I find a verse

00:22:41.059 --> 00:22:41.980
 that makes it sound

00:22:41.980 --> 00:22:43.099
 like I know what I'm saying.

00:22:45.220 --> 00:22:46.500
 Then I use that verse

00:22:46.500 --> 00:22:47.959
 to beat everybody up

00:22:47.959 --> 00:22:49.000
 and when you study it,

00:22:49.399 --> 00:22:51.099
 there's a lot of false doctrines

00:22:51.099 --> 00:22:52.980
 built on soundbite theology.

00:22:55.319 --> 00:22:56.819
 Because when you study out,

00:22:56.899 --> 00:22:58.159
 oftentimes you'll find

00:22:58.159 --> 00:23:00.679
 99% of the time

00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:01.740
 that has absolutely

00:23:01.740 --> 00:23:02.640
 nothing to do

00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:03.380
 with what they're trying

00:23:03.380 --> 00:23:04.200
 to push it to be.

00:23:04.460 --> 00:23:05.400
 It's a misunderstanding,

00:23:05.640 --> 00:23:06.960
 it's a falsehood

00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:08.519
 of those things

00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:09.920
 and we understand

00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:11.420
 that we'll believe

00:23:11.420 --> 00:23:12.320
 many things

00:23:12.320 --> 00:23:12.860
 that are either

00:23:12.860 --> 00:23:14.259
 misunderstandings

00:23:14.259 --> 00:23:15.960
 or even old wives

00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:18.740
 tales about the Scripture

00:23:18.740 --> 00:23:20.019
 that are not in the Scripture.

00:23:20.700 --> 00:23:20.860
 You know,

00:23:20.940 --> 00:23:22.360
 this is why we encourage you

00:23:22.360 --> 00:23:23.860
 to study the Word of God.

00:23:24.560 --> 00:23:24.759
 You know,

00:23:24.820 --> 00:23:25.500
 coming to church

00:23:25.500 --> 00:23:26.600
 on Sunday is good,

00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:28.339
 but you know,

00:23:28.399 --> 00:23:29.500
 you ought to read your Bible.

00:23:31.579 --> 00:23:32.480
 I want to give you

00:23:32.480 --> 00:23:32.959
 a little clue.

00:23:33.059 --> 00:23:34.599
 It's not the preacher's job

00:23:34.599 --> 00:23:35.659
 to teach you everything.

00:23:36.059 --> 00:23:37.119
 Look over in 2 Timothy

00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:37.859
 for a moment.

00:23:38.699 --> 00:23:40.159
 2 Timothy chapter 2.

00:23:40.519 --> 00:23:41.759
 Notice what the Word of God

00:23:41.759 --> 00:23:42.439
 tells us here

00:23:42.439 --> 00:23:43.219
 in verse 15.

00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:44.459
 It says what?

00:23:44.659 --> 00:23:46.079
 Study to show thyself

00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:47.240
 approved unto God,

00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:48.379
 a workman

00:23:48.379 --> 00:23:49.179
 that needeth not

00:23:49.179 --> 00:23:50.319
 be ashamed,

00:23:50.719 --> 00:23:51.299
 doing what?

00:23:51.659 --> 00:23:53.439
 Rightly dividing

00:23:53.439 --> 00:23:54.599
 the Word of truth.

00:23:54.599 --> 00:23:56.759
 Now I want you to notice

00:23:56.759 --> 00:23:57.959
 the verse that follows.

00:23:59.359 --> 00:23:59.799
 It says,

00:24:00.179 --> 00:24:00.659
 rightly divide

00:24:00.659 --> 00:24:01.599
 the Word of truth,

00:24:02.019 --> 00:24:03.759
 but shun profane

00:24:03.759 --> 00:24:04.599
 and vain babblings,

00:24:05.419 --> 00:24:06.500
 for they will increase

00:24:06.500 --> 00:24:06.959
 more,

00:24:07.339 --> 00:24:08.639
 increase unto more

00:24:08.639 --> 00:24:09.459
 ungodliness.

00:24:09.839 --> 00:24:10.799
 I want you to understand

00:24:10.799 --> 00:24:11.319
 that sometimes

00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:12.799
 you can waste a lot of time

00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:13.779
 arguing about things

00:24:13.779 --> 00:24:14.399
 that are irrelevant.

00:24:14.740 --> 00:24:15.319
 There's been a lot

00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:16.359
 of misconceptions

00:24:16.359 --> 00:24:17.859
 put out

00:24:17.859 --> 00:24:19.459
 that people grab a hold of.

00:24:21.019 --> 00:24:22.559
 Because when you understand

00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:23.299
 the Scriptures

00:24:23.299 --> 00:24:24.279
 where you're going to find

00:24:24.279 --> 00:24:24.940
 your answer,

00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:26.960
 consider what Jesus said

00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:28.519
 over in John chapter 5.

00:24:29.019 --> 00:24:30.519
 Look at John chapter 5

00:24:30.519 --> 00:24:31.440
 in verse 38.

00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:32.660
 The Word of God

00:24:32.660 --> 00:24:33.339
 says this,

00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:33.920
 and ye have not

00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:35.319
 the Word abiding in you

00:24:35.319 --> 00:24:38.000
 for whom He has sent

00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:40.720
 Him ye believe not.

00:24:41.220 --> 00:24:42.460
 Search the Scriptures

00:24:42.460 --> 00:24:43.579
 for in them

00:24:43.579 --> 00:24:45.420
 ye have eternal life

00:24:45.420 --> 00:24:46.819
 and they are they

00:24:46.819 --> 00:24:49.180
 which testify of Me.

00:24:50.039 --> 00:24:50.660
 In other words,

00:24:50.759 --> 00:24:51.579
 Jesus said

00:24:51.579 --> 00:24:52.619
 that the very things

00:24:52.619 --> 00:24:53.579
 you guys are lacking

00:24:53.579 --> 00:24:54.879
 the thing you err in,

00:24:55.219 --> 00:24:56.139
 you're erring because

00:24:56.139 --> 00:24:57.119
 you don't see

00:24:57.119 --> 00:24:58.079
 what the Word of God

00:24:58.079 --> 00:24:58.799
 has said,

00:24:59.039 --> 00:24:59.919
 what is declared

00:24:59.919 --> 00:25:01.079
 because if they did,

00:25:01.339 --> 00:25:02.019
 they would have been

00:25:02.019 --> 00:25:02.919
 like others

00:25:02.919 --> 00:25:04.439
 that turned to Jesus.

00:25:06.079 --> 00:25:06.319
 You know,

00:25:06.359 --> 00:25:07.479
 oftentimes when we read

00:25:07.479 --> 00:25:08.019
 through we say,

00:25:08.099 --> 00:25:08.859
 well all these people

00:25:08.859 --> 00:25:09.759
 were against Jesus,

00:25:09.759 --> 00:25:10.479
 not all of them,

00:25:10.539 --> 00:25:11.299
 there were a lot.

00:25:13.239 --> 00:25:13.899
 You have men

00:25:13.899 --> 00:25:14.879
 like Nicodemus.

00:25:14.880 --> 00:25:20.060
 He was a high-ranking Pharisee

00:25:20.060 --> 00:25:21.380
 but yet he realized

00:25:21.380 --> 00:25:22.320
 that there's something

00:25:22.320 --> 00:25:23.400
 different about Jesus

00:25:23.400 --> 00:25:24.840
 and he came to Jesus.

00:25:26.100 --> 00:25:27.220
 And we find that he was

00:25:27.220 --> 00:25:28.980
 one that had understood

00:25:28.980 --> 00:25:30.340
 who Jesus is

00:25:30.340 --> 00:25:32.040
 and what Christ had done.

00:25:33.180 --> 00:25:34.240
 You'll see him mentioned

00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:35.220
 throughout Scripture.

00:25:35.820 --> 00:25:36.120
 You say,

00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:37.420
 well he's in the background

00:25:37.420 --> 00:25:38.180
 but you know what,

00:25:38.220 --> 00:25:39.040
 there's a lot of people

00:25:39.040 --> 00:25:39.700
 that are believers

00:25:39.700 --> 00:25:40.960
 that might be in the background

00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:42.240
 of what we consider history

00:25:42.240 --> 00:25:43.580
 that are key players

00:25:43.580 --> 00:25:44.480
 in God's eyes.

00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:46.800
 Because they were where

00:25:46.800 --> 00:25:48.140
 God had them to be

00:25:48.140 --> 00:25:48.860
 at that point.

00:25:50.620 --> 00:25:51.700
 Doing what God

00:25:51.700 --> 00:25:52.780
 would have them to do.

00:25:54.280 --> 00:25:55.260
 They were ignorant

00:25:55.260 --> 00:25:56.200
 of the Word of God.

00:25:56.340 --> 00:25:56.480
 You know,

00:25:56.540 --> 00:25:57.620
 many misconceptions

00:25:57.620 --> 00:25:59.100
 come because of ignorance

00:25:59.100 --> 00:25:59.900
 of the Word of God.

00:26:01.280 --> 00:26:02.280
 The second thing

00:26:02.280 --> 00:26:02.960
 we find here,

00:26:03.040 --> 00:26:03.680
 they were ignorant

00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:04.480
 that he tells them

00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:06.440
 of God's power.

00:26:07.040 --> 00:26:07.240
 You know,

00:26:07.280 --> 00:26:08.480
 notice in verse 24

00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:08.920
 he says,

00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:10.920
 do ye not therefore err

00:26:10.920 --> 00:26:11.980
 because ye know not

00:26:11.980 --> 00:26:12.680
 the Scriptures

00:26:12.680 --> 00:26:14.700
 neither the power

00:26:14.700 --> 00:26:15.539
 of God.

00:26:17.360 --> 00:26:18.279
 In other words,

00:26:18.360 --> 00:26:19.600
 they negated God

00:26:19.600 --> 00:26:20.380
 downward

00:26:20.380 --> 00:26:22.860
 to say God

00:26:22.860 --> 00:26:23.720
 can do only

00:26:23.720 --> 00:26:24.600
 what I think

00:26:24.600 --> 00:26:25.220
 He can do.

00:26:27.220 --> 00:26:28.860
 That I can know

00:26:28.860 --> 00:26:30.420
 what God's limits are.

00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:31.380
 Now I find it

00:26:31.380 --> 00:26:32.120
 kind of ironic

00:26:32.120 --> 00:26:32.940
 when you consider

00:26:32.940 --> 00:26:33.440
 that they,

00:26:33.840 --> 00:26:34.420
 this group,

00:26:34.580 --> 00:26:34.920
 remember,

00:26:35.140 --> 00:26:36.420
 the Sadducees,

00:26:36.519 --> 00:26:37.500
 what portion of Scripture

00:26:37.500 --> 00:26:38.299
 did they accept?

00:26:38.299 --> 00:26:41.460
 the first five books.

00:26:42.779 --> 00:26:44.000
 The books of Moses.

00:26:44.159 --> 00:26:44.980
 Now the first book

00:26:44.980 --> 00:26:45.859
 Moses wrote

00:26:45.859 --> 00:26:46.700
 that we have

00:26:46.700 --> 00:26:47.259
 in the Scripture

00:26:47.259 --> 00:26:48.240
 for us in order

00:26:48.240 --> 00:26:48.740
 anyways

00:26:48.740 --> 00:26:49.720
 is the book of Genesis.

00:26:50.119 --> 00:26:50.940
 When you open up

00:26:50.940 --> 00:26:52.000
 to the first few chapters

00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:53.079
 of the book of Genesis,

00:26:54.079 --> 00:26:56.839
 you have to understand

00:26:56.839 --> 00:26:58.159
 the power of God.

00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:00.799
 When it says,

00:27:01.079 --> 00:27:01.599
 in the beginning,

00:27:01.899 --> 00:27:03.079
 God created.

00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:06.619
 God spoke

00:27:06.619 --> 00:27:08.019
 the universe

00:27:08.019 --> 00:27:09.379
 into existence

00:27:09.379 --> 00:27:10.299
 from nothing.

00:27:12.939 --> 00:27:14.059
 In other words,

00:27:14.139 --> 00:27:15.439
 I want you to understand

00:27:15.439 --> 00:27:16.919
 He spoke the universe

00:27:16.919 --> 00:27:17.839
 into existence.

00:27:18.319 --> 00:27:19.539
 The Bible tells us

00:27:19.539 --> 00:27:20.599
 He formed Adam

00:27:20.599 --> 00:27:21.480
 from the dust

00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:22.139
 of the earth.

00:27:22.399 --> 00:27:23.259
 The special this morning

00:27:23.259 --> 00:27:24.220
 was pretty appropriate.

00:27:24.539 --> 00:27:25.519
 I want you to understand

00:27:25.519 --> 00:27:26.519
 that God says

00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:27.399
 He formed man

00:27:27.399 --> 00:27:27.980
 out of the dust

00:27:27.980 --> 00:27:28.579
 of the earth.

00:27:28.859 --> 00:27:29.659
 Now a few minutes ago

00:27:29.660 --> 00:27:31.300
 we read in Isaiah,

00:27:32.700 --> 00:27:33.860
 where was God

00:27:33.860 --> 00:27:34.759
 going to raise up

00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:35.620
 people from

00:27:35.620 --> 00:27:36.460
 in the resurrection?

00:27:38.460 --> 00:27:39.400
 From the dust.

00:27:40.800 --> 00:27:41.940
 So when you think about it,

00:27:41.940 --> 00:27:42.420
 if He did it

00:27:42.420 --> 00:27:43.019
 at the beginning,

00:27:43.160 --> 00:27:43.800
 how hard is it

00:27:43.800 --> 00:27:44.779
 for Him to do it again?

00:27:45.060 --> 00:27:45.320
 I mean,

00:27:45.580 --> 00:27:46.740
 it's really not that,

00:27:47.019 --> 00:27:48.620
 and not to downgrade it,

00:27:48.660 --> 00:27:49.460
 but I want you to understand

00:27:49.460 --> 00:27:50.120
 it's really not

00:27:50.120 --> 00:27:51.460
 that spectacular for God.

00:27:51.580 --> 00:27:51.980
 God says,

00:27:52.040 --> 00:27:52.800
 I've already done it.

00:27:53.080 --> 00:27:53.300
 You know?

00:27:54.580 --> 00:27:54.920
 He says,

00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:55.580
 this is nothing

00:27:55.580 --> 00:27:56.700
 that you ought to consider

00:27:56.700 --> 00:27:57.740
 outrageous

00:27:57.740 --> 00:27:58.820
 or out of scope

00:27:58.820 --> 00:27:59.440
 of things.

00:27:59.660 --> 00:28:00.800
 Because God says,

00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:01.700
 I've already showed you

00:28:01.700 --> 00:28:02.440
 that I've done it.

00:28:03.900 --> 00:28:04.960
 If in question,

00:28:05.580 --> 00:28:06.259
 pinch yourself.

00:28:08.360 --> 00:28:09.080
 You're here

00:28:09.080 --> 00:28:10.360
 because He formed man

00:28:10.360 --> 00:28:10.960
 out of the dust

00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:11.519
 of the ground.

00:28:13.560 --> 00:28:15.200
 You're a walking testimony

00:28:15.200 --> 00:28:16.360
 to God's power.

00:28:19.600 --> 00:28:20.779
 And the Bible says

00:28:20.779 --> 00:28:21.759
 He breathed into Him

00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:22.960
 the breath of life.

00:28:24.300 --> 00:28:25.120
 And here we have

00:28:25.120 --> 00:28:26.040
 a group that said,

00:28:26.360 --> 00:28:26.980
 we're going to believe

00:28:26.980 --> 00:28:28.300
 in the literal creation

00:28:28.299 --> 00:28:29.740
 that God had the power

00:28:29.740 --> 00:28:30.659
 to speak the universe

00:28:30.659 --> 00:28:31.460
 into existence,

00:28:31.460 --> 00:28:32.720
 but we don't believe

00:28:32.720 --> 00:28:33.359
 He has the power

00:28:33.359 --> 00:28:34.299
 to resurrect people.

00:28:36.119 --> 00:28:36.980
 You know what that is?

00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:38.079
 That's a big misunderstanding

00:28:38.079 --> 00:28:39.019
 and a misconception.

00:28:41.220 --> 00:28:42.519
 You know not the power

00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:43.099
 of God.

00:28:43.200 --> 00:28:44.119
 You've read about it.

00:28:44.659 --> 00:28:45.680
 You've heard about it,

00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:47.279
 but you haven't understood it

00:28:47.279 --> 00:28:50.440
 and applied what it is.

00:28:50.440 --> 00:28:56.820
 Because if God could make man

00:28:56.820 --> 00:28:58.140
 out of the dust of the ground,

00:28:58.140 --> 00:28:59.500
 it's no big deal for Him

00:28:59.500 --> 00:29:00.920
 to raise the dead physically

00:29:00.920 --> 00:29:01.640
 in the resurrection.

00:29:02.120 --> 00:29:02.320
 You know,

00:29:02.620 --> 00:29:03.460
 I want you to understand,

00:29:03.559 --> 00:29:04.700
 you might look at it this way,

00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:06.559
 that God said

00:29:06.559 --> 00:29:07.880
 it's not a problem.

00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:11.360
 Think about Jeremiah the prophet.

00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:13.559
 Look over to Jeremiah chapter 32.

00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:15.279
 Jeremiah 32.

00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:16.279
 We see here

00:29:16.279 --> 00:29:18.460
 in Jeremiah 32

00:29:18.460 --> 00:29:20.460
 in verse 17,

00:29:20.940 --> 00:29:21.879
 Jeremiah says,

00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:22.879
 Ah, Lord God,

00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:23.359
 behold,

00:29:23.480 --> 00:29:24.619
 Thou hast made the heaven

00:29:24.619 --> 00:29:25.119
 and the earth

00:29:25.119 --> 00:29:26.440
 by Thy great power

00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:28.299
 and stretched Thou art arm

00:29:28.299 --> 00:29:29.839
 and there is nothing,

00:29:29.940 --> 00:29:30.220
 what?

00:29:31.319 --> 00:29:32.579
 Too hard for Thee.

00:29:33.659 --> 00:29:34.579
 In other words,

00:29:34.700 --> 00:29:36.240
 Jesus looked at the Sadducees

00:29:36.240 --> 00:29:37.059
 that day and said,

00:29:37.139 --> 00:29:37.980
 Guys, you err

00:29:37.980 --> 00:29:39.000
 not knowing the Scripture.

00:29:40.399 --> 00:29:42.079
 You don't understand

00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:44.179
 what's going on

00:29:44.179 --> 00:29:45.359
 and you don't understand

00:29:45.359 --> 00:29:47.059
 the power of God.

00:29:48.359 --> 00:29:49.619
 You don't understand

00:29:49.619 --> 00:29:50.859
 what God can do.

00:29:52.240 --> 00:29:53.500
 But now Jesus,

00:29:53.720 --> 00:29:55.039
 after He clarifies

00:29:55.039 --> 00:29:56.399
 and helps them understand

00:29:56.399 --> 00:29:56.799
 that, hey,

00:29:56.960 --> 00:29:58.720
 the question you asked,

00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:02.559
 the question you conjured up

00:30:02.559 --> 00:30:05.339
 is not accurate.

00:30:05.619 --> 00:30:07.179
 Let me correct your assumptions.

00:30:09.059 --> 00:30:11.000
 Let me correct the things

00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:12.319
 that you've said in this.

00:30:13.200 --> 00:30:14.700
 Because look down

00:30:14.700 --> 00:30:15.619
 at verse 25

00:30:15.619 --> 00:30:17.019
 and it says,

00:30:17.180 --> 00:30:18.779
 For when they shall rise

00:30:18.779 --> 00:30:19.480
 from the dead,

00:30:19.539 --> 00:30:20.019
 notice this,

00:30:20.079 --> 00:30:21.099
 they neither marry

00:30:21.099 --> 00:30:22.819
 nor are given in marriage.

00:30:23.880 --> 00:30:24.920
 Neither marry

00:30:24.920 --> 00:30:26.220
 nor are given in marriage.

00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:29.039
 Now I want you to understand

00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:30.359
 the first part of the question

00:30:30.359 --> 00:30:31.660
 centered around marriage.

00:30:32.819 --> 00:30:33.779
 Now marriage,

00:30:33.859 --> 00:30:34.000
 you know,

00:30:34.019 --> 00:30:34.960
 we've talked about it.

00:30:35.039 --> 00:30:36.160
 Marriage is ordained.

00:30:36.319 --> 00:30:37.019
 It's a wonderful

00:30:37.019 --> 00:30:38.319
 divine institution

00:30:38.319 --> 00:30:40.740
 that God has given to us.

00:30:42.339 --> 00:30:43.899
 But I want you to understand

00:30:43.899 --> 00:30:46.299
 marriage is an earthly institution

00:30:46.299 --> 00:30:47.139
 that God's given.

00:30:47.460 --> 00:30:48.639
 When you are in heaven,

00:30:48.899 --> 00:30:50.259
 you are no longer married.

00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:53.200
 Now that's a hard pill

00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:54.119
 for some to swallow.

00:30:55.639 --> 00:30:56.779
 Now I want you to understand

00:30:56.779 --> 00:30:57.439
 it doesn't mean

00:30:57.439 --> 00:30:58.539
 you might not still like

00:30:58.539 --> 00:30:58.960
 the person

00:30:58.960 --> 00:30:59.980
 or even want to hang out

00:30:59.980 --> 00:31:00.319
 with them.

00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:01.839
 I hope that's the case.

00:31:03.619 --> 00:31:04.019
 Yeah,

00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:04.939
 I hope who you married

00:31:04.939 --> 00:31:06.139
 you want to hang out with.

00:31:06.140 --> 00:31:08.140
 We talked about that

00:31:08.140 --> 00:31:08.960
 a few weeks ago

00:31:08.960 --> 00:31:10.100
 talking about marriage.

00:31:11.500 --> 00:31:11.780
 You know,

00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:13.520
 you ought to want to hang out

00:31:13.520 --> 00:31:13.800
 with them

00:31:13.800 --> 00:31:15.040
 but I want you to understand

00:31:15.040 --> 00:31:17.720
 that that is absolved

00:31:17.720 --> 00:31:18.360
 at death.

00:31:20.140 --> 00:31:21.020
 That's what the Bible

00:31:21.020 --> 00:31:21.680
 teaches us.

00:31:21.900 --> 00:31:23.280
 It might make you feel good

00:31:23.280 --> 00:31:24.420
 to consider other things

00:31:24.420 --> 00:31:25.580
 but I want you to understand

00:31:25.580 --> 00:31:27.680
 that God gives us marriage

00:31:27.680 --> 00:31:29.140
 here for legitimate reasons

00:31:29.140 --> 00:31:30.259
 in God's design

00:31:30.259 --> 00:31:31.020
 and God's plan.

00:31:31.320 --> 00:31:32.600
 We understand some of that

00:31:32.600 --> 00:31:33.940
 is just for companionship.

00:31:34.140 --> 00:31:34.940
 God says it's not good

00:31:34.940 --> 00:31:35.880
 for man to be alone.

00:31:36.140 --> 00:31:38.240
 You know,

00:31:39.440 --> 00:31:41.360
 two is always better than one.

00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:42.780
 We're designed that way.

00:31:42.920 --> 00:31:44.140
 God gave us marriage

00:31:44.140 --> 00:31:45.600
 for a place that family

00:31:45.600 --> 00:31:47.620
 could be made

00:31:47.620 --> 00:31:49.080
 and family could grow

00:31:49.080 --> 00:31:50.360
 and to have those things

00:31:50.360 --> 00:31:51.480
 and it's a place

00:31:51.480 --> 00:31:53.259
 to fulfill legitimate desires

00:31:53.259 --> 00:31:54.980
 that God gives to us.

00:31:55.040 --> 00:31:56.220
 But I want you to understand

00:31:56.220 --> 00:31:57.420
 that in heaven

00:31:57.420 --> 00:31:58.620
 it's no longer

00:31:58.620 --> 00:31:59.520
 neither marry

00:31:59.520 --> 00:32:01.180
 or given in marriage.

00:32:01.500 --> 00:32:01.740
 Now,

00:32:01.900 --> 00:32:02.860
 that's one of those things

00:32:02.860 --> 00:32:03.680
 that you start to preach

00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:04.920
 or you're talking about things

00:32:04.920 --> 00:32:06.380
 that I have in my mind

00:32:06.380 --> 00:32:07.019
 the way I think

00:32:07.019 --> 00:32:07.560
 it's going to be.

00:32:07.720 --> 00:32:07.880
 Well,

00:32:09.039 --> 00:32:09.740
 I'm sorry.

00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:11.560
 God's word makes it clear

00:32:11.560 --> 00:32:12.340
 of this is how it's going

00:32:12.340 --> 00:32:12.900
 to operate

00:32:12.900 --> 00:32:13.440
 and notice

00:32:13.440 --> 00:32:14.660
 the next part

00:32:14.660 --> 00:32:15.600
 of what he says

00:32:15.600 --> 00:32:18.120
 because simply

00:32:18.120 --> 00:32:19.440
 Jesus tells them

00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:21.240
 your question is mute

00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:22.740
 because there's nobody

00:32:22.740 --> 00:32:23.440
 going to be married

00:32:23.440 --> 00:32:23.880
 in heaven.

00:32:23.880 --> 00:32:24.460
 So in other words

00:32:24.460 --> 00:32:25.040
 Jesus said

00:32:25.040 --> 00:32:25.940
 all seven brothers

00:32:25.940 --> 00:32:27.040
 that married this gal

00:32:27.040 --> 00:32:28.160
 when they come

00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:28.940
 to the resurrection

00:32:28.940 --> 00:32:29.360
 what?

00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:31.960
 It's all irrelevant.

00:32:33.260 --> 00:32:34.520
 It doesn't matter.

00:32:35.420 --> 00:32:36.340
 You're misunderstanding.

00:32:36.340 --> 00:32:37.420
 You're arguing about

00:32:37.420 --> 00:32:38.580
 something that is irrelevant

00:32:38.580 --> 00:32:40.580
 because it has no substance.

00:32:41.160 --> 00:32:42.220
 There's no marriage

00:32:42.220 --> 00:32:43.460
 in the resurrection.

00:32:45.500 --> 00:32:46.040
 Take a look over

00:32:46.040 --> 00:32:47.260
 into Luke chapter 20

00:32:47.260 --> 00:32:47.820
 for a moment.

00:32:47.940 --> 00:32:48.780
 Luke chapter 20

00:32:48.780 --> 00:32:50.880
 because Luke gives us

00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:51.880
 a little more insight

00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:53.580
 into these things.

00:32:53.900 --> 00:32:55.420
 In verse 35

00:32:55.420 --> 00:32:56.540
 of Luke chapter 20

00:32:56.540 --> 00:32:56.820
 it says

00:32:56.820 --> 00:32:57.680
 but they which shall

00:32:57.680 --> 00:32:58.340
 be accounted

00:32:58.340 --> 00:33:00.160
 worthy to obtain

00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:00.840
 that world

00:33:00.840 --> 00:33:01.520
 and the resurrection

00:33:01.520 --> 00:33:02.300
 from the dead

00:33:02.300 --> 00:33:03.100
 neither marry

00:33:03.100 --> 00:33:04.180
 nor are given

00:33:04.180 --> 00:33:04.700
 in marriage

00:33:04.700 --> 00:33:05.600
 neither can they

00:33:05.600 --> 00:33:06.560
 die anymore

00:33:06.560 --> 00:33:07.880
 for they are equal

00:33:07.880 --> 00:33:08.760
 unto the angels

00:33:08.760 --> 00:33:09.620
 and are the children

00:33:09.620 --> 00:33:10.160
 of God

00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:10.840
 being children

00:33:10.840 --> 00:33:11.640
 of the resurrection.

00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:14.400
 Now,

00:33:14.540 --> 00:33:15.360
 I want you to understand

00:33:15.360 --> 00:33:16.340
 because he talks here

00:33:16.340 --> 00:33:16.880
 about another

00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:18.140
 false and a bunch

00:33:18.140 --> 00:33:18.820
 of misinformation

00:33:18.820 --> 00:33:19.940
 that people say

00:33:19.940 --> 00:33:20.580
 and you hear people

00:33:20.580 --> 00:33:21.660
 say this all the time.

00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:24.980
 But when your loved one dies

00:33:24.980 --> 00:33:25.960
 they do not become

00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:26.440
 an angel.

00:33:29.940 --> 00:33:31.120
 The word of God

00:33:31.120 --> 00:33:31.900
 compares them

00:33:31.900 --> 00:33:32.960
 like or as.

00:33:33.280 --> 00:33:33.760
 In other words

00:33:33.760 --> 00:33:34.880
 there's some similarities

00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:36.280
 but they are not.

00:33:36.540 --> 00:33:37.260
 The similarities

00:33:37.260 --> 00:33:39.380
 are that spiritual dynamic

00:33:39.380 --> 00:33:41.020
 that number one

00:33:41.020 --> 00:33:42.280
 angels don't die

00:33:42.280 --> 00:33:43.180
 and that once you're

00:33:43.180 --> 00:33:43.660
 resurrected

00:33:43.660 --> 00:33:44.340
 you're never going

00:33:44.340 --> 00:33:45.000
 to die again.

00:33:45.360 --> 00:33:46.680
 Jesus makes it clear

00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:48.180
 some very foundational

00:33:48.180 --> 00:33:49.180
 things here

00:33:49.180 --> 00:33:50.360
 because he says

00:33:50.359 --> 00:33:51.000
 that you're not

00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:51.719
 you're equal

00:33:51.719 --> 00:33:52.500
 unto the angels

00:33:52.500 --> 00:33:53.119
 but notice here

00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:53.359
 he says

00:33:53.359 --> 00:33:54.279
 you are the children

00:33:54.279 --> 00:33:55.000
 of God.

00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:56.539
 When a saved individual

00:33:56.539 --> 00:33:58.519
 dies and goes to glory

00:33:58.519 --> 00:34:00.179
 they don't become

00:34:00.179 --> 00:34:00.859
 an angel

00:34:00.859 --> 00:34:02.399
 they become

00:34:02.399 --> 00:34:03.039
 and sit

00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:04.099
 as part of the family.

00:34:04.319 --> 00:34:05.079
 Now how many of you

00:34:05.079 --> 00:34:06.159
 heard that misconception

00:34:06.159 --> 00:34:06.799
 well they're now

00:34:06.799 --> 00:34:07.259
 an angel?

00:34:07.259 --> 00:34:10.179
 You hear that a lot

00:34:10.179 --> 00:34:10.559
 don't you?

00:34:10.719 --> 00:34:11.380
 It makes people

00:34:11.380 --> 00:34:12.179
 feel good

00:34:12.179 --> 00:34:14.760
 but you know what?

00:34:14.860 --> 00:34:15.679
 The devil loves

00:34:15.679 --> 00:34:16.300
 to twist

00:34:16.300 --> 00:34:17.139
 false things

00:34:17.139 --> 00:34:18.500
 that make us feel good

00:34:18.500 --> 00:34:20.019
 to counteract

00:34:20.019 --> 00:34:21.320
 what God has actually said.

00:34:21.559 --> 00:34:22.119
 Because I want you

00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:22.679
 to understand

00:34:22.679 --> 00:34:23.940
 to be a child of God

00:34:23.940 --> 00:34:24.679
 is far better

00:34:24.679 --> 00:34:25.519
 than being an angel.

00:34:25.519 --> 00:34:29.900
 You might say

00:34:29.900 --> 00:34:31.099
 it's a greater status.

00:34:32.019 --> 00:34:32.880
 When you look

00:34:32.880 --> 00:34:33.619
 in the scripture

00:34:33.619 --> 00:34:34.840
 an angel

00:34:34.840 --> 00:34:36.019
 was just a servant.

00:34:37.579 --> 00:34:38.599
 They're a messenger

00:34:38.599 --> 00:34:39.360
 they're a servant

00:34:39.360 --> 00:34:39.960
 of God.

00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:40.880
 Now if you were

00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:41.559
 to be a part

00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:42.380
 of a household

00:34:42.380 --> 00:34:43.699
 and the picture

00:34:43.699 --> 00:34:44.300
 we see

00:34:44.300 --> 00:34:45.019
 is of an ancient

00:34:45.019 --> 00:34:45.659
 household

00:34:45.659 --> 00:34:46.719
 would you rather

00:34:46.719 --> 00:34:47.699
 be the child

00:34:47.699 --> 00:34:48.440
 of the king

00:34:48.440 --> 00:34:49.460
 or the servant

00:34:49.460 --> 00:34:50.019
 of the king?

00:34:50.219 --> 00:34:50.900
 I don't know about you

00:34:50.900 --> 00:34:51.460
 but it sounds a lot

00:34:51.460 --> 00:34:52.360
 better being his kid.

00:34:52.360 --> 00:34:56.720
 Not that a servant

00:34:56.720 --> 00:34:57.460
 would be bad

00:34:57.460 --> 00:34:58.519
 but the child

00:34:58.519 --> 00:34:58.920
 of the king

00:34:58.920 --> 00:35:00.000
 is way better status.

00:35:01.180 --> 00:35:01.980
 And God says

00:35:01.980 --> 00:35:02.740
 that if you've

00:35:02.740 --> 00:35:03.500
 trusted him

00:35:03.500 --> 00:35:04.039
 as savior

00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:05.300
 when you rose again

00:35:05.300 --> 00:35:06.780
 you're risen again

00:35:06.780 --> 00:35:08.640
 and declared

00:35:08.640 --> 00:35:09.720
 you're placed

00:35:09.720 --> 00:35:10.840
 as one of the family.

00:35:11.280 --> 00:35:11.620
 Similar

00:35:11.620 --> 00:35:12.500
 but different.

00:35:13.860 --> 00:35:14.240
 Instead

00:35:14.240 --> 00:35:15.500
 we're as distinct

00:35:15.500 --> 00:35:17.240
 children of God.

00:35:17.780 --> 00:35:18.400
 Think about here

00:35:18.400 --> 00:35:19.760
 1 John chapter 3

00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:20.400
 and verse 2

00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:21.160
 tells us this

00:35:21.160 --> 00:35:21.420
 it says

00:35:21.420 --> 00:35:21.960
 Beloved

00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:23.079
 now we are

00:35:23.079 --> 00:35:23.340
 what?

00:35:23.400 --> 00:35:24.679
 The sons of God

00:35:24.679 --> 00:35:25.740
 and it does not

00:35:25.740 --> 00:35:26.360
 yet appear

00:35:26.360 --> 00:35:27.320
 what we shall be

00:35:27.320 --> 00:35:28.480
 but we know

00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:29.519
 that when he

00:35:29.519 --> 00:35:30.199
 shall appear

00:35:30.199 --> 00:35:30.800
 we shall be

00:35:30.800 --> 00:35:31.579
 like him

00:35:31.579 --> 00:35:32.440
 for we shall

00:35:32.440 --> 00:35:33.000
 see him

00:35:33.000 --> 00:35:33.920
 as he

00:35:33.920 --> 00:35:34.740
 is.

00:35:36.940 --> 00:35:37.760
 Jesus is

00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:38.199
 correcting

00:35:38.199 --> 00:35:39.159
 a misconception

00:35:39.159 --> 00:35:42.139
 not only

00:35:42.139 --> 00:35:43.139
 to the Sadducees

00:35:43.139 --> 00:35:44.019
 or the Pharisees

00:35:44.019 --> 00:35:44.559
 but to all the

00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:45.000
 people that

00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:45.480
 were listening.

00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:47.820
 He says

00:35:47.820 --> 00:35:48.360
 let me put

00:35:48.360 --> 00:35:49.500
 things in context.

00:35:50.260 --> 00:35:51.079
 Had the question

00:35:51.079 --> 00:35:51.559
 there of the

00:35:51.559 --> 00:35:52.159
 second question

00:35:52.159 --> 00:35:52.820
 was the question

00:35:52.820 --> 00:35:53.119
 of the

00:35:53.119 --> 00:35:53.659
 resurrection.

00:35:55.340 --> 00:35:56.099
 Jesus knew

00:35:56.099 --> 00:35:57.019
 the Sadducees

00:35:57.019 --> 00:35:57.619
 denied the

00:35:57.619 --> 00:35:58.079
 resurrection.

00:36:00.019 --> 00:36:00.179
 You know

00:36:00.179 --> 00:36:00.579
 there's many

00:36:00.579 --> 00:36:01.320
 people today

00:36:01.320 --> 00:36:01.940
 deny the

00:36:01.940 --> 00:36:02.400
 resurrection.

00:36:03.920 --> 00:36:04.699
 They deny

00:36:04.699 --> 00:36:05.360
 the resurrection

00:36:05.360 --> 00:36:05.960
 of Jesus

00:36:05.960 --> 00:36:06.519
 they deny

00:36:06.519 --> 00:36:06.980
 the fact

00:36:06.980 --> 00:36:07.279
 that they're

00:36:07.279 --> 00:36:07.579
 going to be

00:36:07.579 --> 00:36:08.119
 resurrected

00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:08.779
 one day.

00:36:09.000 --> 00:36:09.299
 And you say

00:36:09.299 --> 00:36:09.779
 well why do

00:36:09.779 --> 00:36:10.639
 people reject

00:36:10.639 --> 00:36:11.340
 the resurrection

00:36:11.340 --> 00:36:11.860
 because

00:36:11.860 --> 00:36:12.940
 you can't

00:36:12.940 --> 00:36:14.539
 separate

00:36:14.539 --> 00:36:15.639
 the resurrection

00:36:15.639 --> 00:36:16.599
 from accountability.

00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:16.679
 accountability.

00:36:18.739 --> 00:36:19.480
 In the

00:36:19.480 --> 00:36:19.880
 scripture

00:36:19.880 --> 00:36:20.480
 resurrection

00:36:20.480 --> 00:36:21.519
 and accountability

00:36:21.519 --> 00:36:22.239
 go hand

00:36:22.239 --> 00:36:22.739
 in hand.

00:36:25.019 --> 00:36:25.900
 You find

00:36:25.900 --> 00:36:26.500
 throughout the

00:36:26.500 --> 00:36:26.819
 scripture

00:36:26.819 --> 00:36:27.380
 those two

00:36:27.380 --> 00:36:27.980
 are tied

00:36:27.980 --> 00:36:28.940
 together.

00:36:30.019 --> 00:36:30.239
 You know

00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:31.559
 notice what

00:36:31.559 --> 00:36:32.400
 Jesus tells

00:36:32.400 --> 00:36:32.759
 them here

00:36:32.759 --> 00:36:33.079
 though

00:36:33.079 --> 00:36:33.819
 when he

00:36:33.819 --> 00:36:34.599
 reminds them

00:36:34.599 --> 00:36:35.380
 about Moses

00:36:35.380 --> 00:36:36.059
 before the

00:36:36.059 --> 00:36:36.860
 burning bush

00:36:36.860 --> 00:36:37.579
 where it

00:36:37.579 --> 00:36:38.099
 says there

00:36:38.099 --> 00:36:38.400
 in verse

00:36:38.400 --> 00:36:38.980
 25

00:36:38.980 --> 00:36:39.699
 he says

00:36:39.699 --> 00:36:40.059
 I am

00:36:40.059 --> 00:36:40.500
 the God

00:36:40.500 --> 00:36:41.079
 of Abraham

00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:41.679
 the God

00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:42.119
 of Isaac

00:36:42.119 --> 00:36:42.559
 the God

00:36:42.559 --> 00:36:43.059
 of Jacob.

00:36:43.059 --> 00:36:45.039
 Now this

00:36:45.039 --> 00:36:45.360
 is one of

00:36:45.360 --> 00:36:45.739
 those things

00:36:45.739 --> 00:36:46.039
 I think

00:36:46.039 --> 00:36:46.679
 we miss

00:36:46.679 --> 00:36:48.380
 you know

00:36:48.380 --> 00:36:48.980
 we just

00:36:48.980 --> 00:36:49.360
 got done

00:36:49.360 --> 00:36:49.619
 with our

00:36:49.619 --> 00:36:50.000
 conference

00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:50.360
 on the

00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:50.699
 Bible

00:36:50.699 --> 00:36:51.480
 and this

00:36:51.480 --> 00:36:51.699
 is one

00:36:51.699 --> 00:36:51.880
 of those

00:36:51.880 --> 00:36:52.059
 things

00:36:52.059 --> 00:36:52.360
 sometimes

00:36:52.360 --> 00:36:53.059
 get lost

00:36:53.059 --> 00:36:53.699
 in translation

00:36:53.699 --> 00:36:54.259
 a little

00:36:54.259 --> 00:36:54.559
 bit

00:36:54.559 --> 00:36:56.259
 but the

00:36:56.259 --> 00:36:57.039
 words used

00:36:57.039 --> 00:36:57.480
 there

00:36:57.480 --> 00:36:58.179
 are present

00:36:58.179 --> 00:36:58.579
 tense

00:36:58.579 --> 00:36:58.920
 in other

00:36:58.920 --> 00:36:59.099
 words

00:36:59.099 --> 00:36:59.480
 God

00:36:59.480 --> 00:36:59.840
 looks

00:36:59.840 --> 00:37:00.420
 when

00:37:00.420 --> 00:37:01.579
 God

00:37:01.579 --> 00:37:02.179
 was speaking

00:37:02.179 --> 00:37:02.739
 to Moses

00:37:02.739 --> 00:37:03.199
 out of the

00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:03.559
 bush

00:37:03.559 --> 00:37:04.599
 Moses

00:37:04.599 --> 00:37:05.340
 understood

00:37:05.340 --> 00:37:06.639
 that he

00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:07.039
 was being

00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:07.820
 spoken to

00:37:07.820 --> 00:37:08.579
 about Abraham

00:37:08.579 --> 00:37:09.059
 Isaac

00:37:09.059 --> 00:37:09.639
 and Jacob

00:37:09.639 --> 00:37:10.380
 in the

00:37:10.380 --> 00:37:10.799
 present

00:37:10.799 --> 00:37:11.340
 tense

00:37:11.340 --> 00:37:12.019
 in other

00:37:12.019 --> 00:37:12.360
 words

00:37:12.360 --> 00:37:13.079
 Moses

00:37:13.079 --> 00:37:13.640
 understood

00:37:13.640 --> 00:37:14.120
 that when

00:37:14.120 --> 00:37:14.519
 he heard

00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:14.860
 that

00:37:14.860 --> 00:37:15.340
 that he

00:37:15.340 --> 00:37:15.800
 was talking

00:37:15.800 --> 00:37:16.340
 about them

00:37:16.340 --> 00:37:17.160
 being physically

00:37:17.160 --> 00:37:17.640
 present

00:37:17.640 --> 00:37:18.380
 with Jesus

00:37:18.380 --> 00:37:21.980
 being present

00:37:21.980 --> 00:37:22.360
 in heaven

00:37:22.360 --> 00:37:22.840
 not the

00:37:22.840 --> 00:37:23.360
 God of the

00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:23.700
 dead

00:37:23.700 --> 00:37:24.660
 they'd long

00:37:24.660 --> 00:37:26.539
 been eaten

00:37:26.539 --> 00:37:27.099
 up by the

00:37:27.099 --> 00:37:27.519
 worms

00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:28.400
 but he spoke

00:37:28.400 --> 00:37:28.700
 of them

00:37:28.700 --> 00:37:29.019
 as being

00:37:29.019 --> 00:37:29.460
 alive

00:37:29.460 --> 00:37:31.820
 he said

00:37:31.820 --> 00:37:32.160
 I'm the

00:37:32.160 --> 00:37:32.700
 God of the

00:37:32.700 --> 00:37:32.980
 living

00:37:32.980 --> 00:37:33.700
 it's not

00:37:33.700 --> 00:37:34.320
 open for

00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:34.720
 debate

00:37:34.720 --> 00:37:36.360
 notice

00:37:36.360 --> 00:37:37.099
 when they

00:37:37.099 --> 00:37:38.300
 shall rise

00:37:38.300 --> 00:37:39.300
 notice in

00:37:39.300 --> 00:37:40.019
 verse 25

00:37:40.019 --> 00:37:40.680
 for when they

00:37:40.680 --> 00:37:41.559
 shall rise

00:37:41.559 --> 00:37:41.980
 from the

00:37:41.980 --> 00:37:42.340
 dead

00:37:42.340 --> 00:37:43.539
 you know

00:37:43.539 --> 00:37:44.079
 that's another

00:37:44.079 --> 00:37:44.680
 powerful

00:37:44.680 --> 00:37:45.340
 dynamic

00:37:45.340 --> 00:37:46.260
 you know

00:37:46.260 --> 00:37:46.900
 when we

00:37:46.900 --> 00:37:47.360
 understand

00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:48.019
 he's not

00:37:48.019 --> 00:37:48.440
 the God

00:37:48.440 --> 00:37:48.640
 of the

00:37:48.640 --> 00:37:48.840
 dead

00:37:48.840 --> 00:37:49.200
 but he's

00:37:49.200 --> 00:37:49.720
 God

00:37:49.720 --> 00:37:50.120
 of the

00:37:50.120 --> 00:37:50.460
 living

00:37:50.460 --> 00:37:51.420
 look there

00:37:51.420 --> 00:37:52.500
 in verse 27

00:37:52.500 --> 00:37:53.280
 as he

00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:53.820
 concludes

00:37:53.820 --> 00:37:54.240
 he do

00:37:54.240 --> 00:37:54.680
 therefore

00:37:54.680 --> 00:37:55.380
 greatly

00:37:55.380 --> 00:37:56.140
 Jesus

00:37:56.140 --> 00:37:56.620
 answered

00:37:56.620 --> 00:37:56.820
 their

00:37:56.820 --> 00:37:57.220
 question

00:37:57.220 --> 00:37:57.800
 by saying

00:37:57.800 --> 00:37:58.280
 you guys

00:37:58.280 --> 00:37:58.680
 need to

00:37:58.680 --> 00:37:58.920
 get

00:37:58.920 --> 00:37:59.640
 your facts

00:37:59.640 --> 00:37:59.980
 straight

00:37:59.980 --> 00:38:00.519
 let me

00:38:00.519 --> 00:38:01.039
 put those

00:38:01.039 --> 00:38:01.400
 things

00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:02.280
 in context

00:38:02.280 --> 00:38:04.059
 Jesus

00:38:04.059 --> 00:38:04.780
 reminded

00:38:04.780 --> 00:38:05.039
 them

00:38:05.039 --> 00:38:05.360
 that the

00:38:05.360 --> 00:38:05.800
 resurrection

00:38:05.800 --> 00:38:06.320
 is

00:38:06.320 --> 00:38:07.019
 foundational

00:38:07.019 --> 00:38:08.480
 to

00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:08.980
 everything

00:38:08.980 --> 00:38:10.579
 today

00:38:10.579 --> 00:38:10.960
 I want

00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:11.039
 you

00:38:11.039 --> 00:38:11.059
 to

00:38:11.059 --> 00:38:11.440
 understand

00:38:11.440 --> 00:38:11.619
 the

00:38:11.619 --> 00:38:12.119
 resurrection

00:38:12.119 --> 00:38:12.559
 is

00:38:12.559 --> 00:38:13.139
 foundational

00:38:13.139 --> 00:38:13.519
 to your

00:38:13.519 --> 00:38:13.719
 very

00:38:13.719 --> 00:38:14.320
 salvation

00:38:14.320 --> 00:38:15.360
 the gospel

00:38:15.360 --> 00:38:15.760
 is the

00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:16.099
 death

00:38:16.099 --> 00:38:16.619
 burial

00:38:16.619 --> 00:38:16.880
 and

00:38:16.880 --> 00:38:17.820
 resurrection

00:38:17.820 --> 00:38:18.719
 of Jesus

00:38:18.719 --> 00:38:19.300
 Christ

00:38:19.300 --> 00:38:20.400
 he is the

00:38:20.400 --> 00:38:21.039
 first fruits

00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:21.480
 he is the

00:38:21.480 --> 00:38:22.019
 reason

00:38:22.019 --> 00:38:22.960
 that we

00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:23.260
 can be

00:38:23.260 --> 00:38:23.760
 alive

00:38:23.760 --> 00:38:24.679
 he is the

00:38:24.679 --> 00:38:25.059
 one

00:38:25.059 --> 00:38:25.760
 that has

00:38:25.760 --> 00:38:26.039
 dealt

00:38:26.039 --> 00:38:26.480
 with all

00:38:26.480 --> 00:38:26.860
 that

00:38:26.860 --> 00:38:27.599
 notice

00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:28.000
 understand

00:38:28.000 --> 00:38:28.360
 look over

00:38:28.360 --> 00:38:29.079
 in 1 Corinthians

00:38:29.079 --> 00:38:30.019
 chapter 15

00:38:30.019 --> 00:38:30.639
 for a moment

00:38:30.639 --> 00:38:32.500
 1 Corinthians

00:38:32.500 --> 00:38:33.579
 chapter 15

00:38:33.579 --> 00:38:34.619
 notice here

00:38:34.619 --> 00:38:35.319
 in verse 20

00:38:35.319 --> 00:38:35.639
 it says

00:38:35.639 --> 00:38:36.279
 but now

00:38:36.279 --> 00:38:37.239
 is Christ

00:38:37.239 --> 00:38:37.779
 risen

00:38:37.779 --> 00:38:38.239
 from the

00:38:38.239 --> 00:38:38.599
 dead

00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:39.440
 and become

00:38:39.440 --> 00:38:40.440
 the first fruits

00:38:40.440 --> 00:38:40.920
 of them

00:38:40.920 --> 00:38:41.619
 that slept

00:38:41.619 --> 00:38:42.460
 for since

00:38:42.460 --> 00:38:43.279
 by man

00:38:43.279 --> 00:38:44.099
 came death

00:38:44.099 --> 00:38:44.679
 by man

00:38:44.679 --> 00:38:45.519
 came also

00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:46.380
 resurrection

00:38:46.380 --> 00:38:46.960
 of the

00:38:46.960 --> 00:38:47.319
 dead

00:38:47.319 --> 00:38:48.259
 for in

00:38:48.259 --> 00:38:48.739
 Adam

00:38:48.739 --> 00:38:49.539
 all die

00:38:49.539 --> 00:38:50.239
 even so

00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:50.860
 in Christ

00:38:50.860 --> 00:38:51.559
 shall all

00:38:51.559 --> 00:38:52.000
 be made

00:38:52.000 --> 00:38:52.539
 alive

00:38:52.539 --> 00:38:53.299
 but every

00:38:53.299 --> 00:38:53.699
 man

00:38:53.699 --> 00:38:54.059
 in his

00:38:54.059 --> 00:38:54.420
 own

00:38:54.420 --> 00:38:54.900
 order

00:38:54.900 --> 00:38:56.119
 Christ

00:38:56.119 --> 00:38:56.679
 the first

00:38:56.679 --> 00:38:57.000
 fruits

00:38:57.000 --> 00:38:57.460
 afterwards

00:38:57.460 --> 00:38:57.960
 they

00:38:57.960 --> 00:38:58.319
 that are

00:38:58.319 --> 00:38:58.799
 Christ

00:38:58.799 --> 00:38:59.139
 that is

00:38:59.139 --> 00:38:59.579
 coming

00:38:59.579 --> 00:39:01.119
 I want

00:39:01.119 --> 00:39:01.219
 you to

00:39:01.219 --> 00:39:01.599
 understand

00:39:01.599 --> 00:39:01.940
 because

00:39:01.940 --> 00:39:02.440
 Jesus

00:39:02.440 --> 00:39:02.920
 rose

00:39:02.920 --> 00:39:03.300
 from the

00:39:03.300 --> 00:39:03.659
 dead

00:39:03.659 --> 00:39:04.440
 those

00:39:04.440 --> 00:39:04.579
 who

00:39:04.579 --> 00:39:04.780
 have

00:39:04.780 --> 00:39:04.960
 their

00:39:04.960 --> 00:39:05.420
 faith

00:39:05.420 --> 00:39:05.800
 in him

00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:06.000
 for

00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:06.659
 salvation

00:39:06.659 --> 00:39:07.360
 have

00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:07.980
 passed

00:39:07.980 --> 00:39:08.240
 from

00:39:08.240 --> 00:39:08.740
 death

00:39:08.740 --> 00:39:09.019
 unto

00:39:09.019 --> 00:39:09.420
 life

00:39:09.420 --> 00:39:09.780
 John

00:39:09.780 --> 00:39:10.519
 chapter 5

00:39:10.519 --> 00:39:10.940
 makes it

00:39:10.940 --> 00:39:11.300
 clear

00:39:11.300 --> 00:39:12.139
 that we

00:39:12.139 --> 00:39:12.300
 have

00:39:12.300 --> 00:39:12.680
 passed

00:39:12.680 --> 00:39:12.900
 from

00:39:12.900 --> 00:39:13.260
 death

00:39:13.260 --> 00:39:14.039
 the wages

00:39:14.039 --> 00:39:14.599
 of sin

00:39:14.599 --> 00:39:15.159
 is death

00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:15.500
 but the

00:39:15.500 --> 00:39:15.740
 gift

00:39:15.740 --> 00:39:16.220
 of God

00:39:16.220 --> 00:39:16.740
 is what

00:39:16.740 --> 00:39:17.720
 eternal

00:39:17.720 --> 00:39:18.260
 life

00:39:18.260 --> 00:39:18.900
 he is

00:39:18.900 --> 00:39:19.480
 the one

00:39:19.480 --> 00:39:20.400
 that is

00:39:20.400 --> 00:39:20.700
 brought

00:39:20.700 --> 00:39:21.139
 forth

00:39:21.139 --> 00:39:21.340
 that

00:39:21.340 --> 00:39:22.079
 salvation

00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:22.840
 that

00:39:22.840 --> 00:39:23.400
 person

00:39:23.400 --> 00:39:23.700
 is

00:39:23.700 --> 00:39:24.340
 made

00:39:24.340 --> 00:39:24.820
 alive

00:39:24.820 --> 00:39:25.139
 from

00:39:25.139 --> 00:39:25.360
 that

00:39:25.360 --> 00:39:25.960
 spiritual

00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:26.300
 death

00:39:26.300 --> 00:39:26.820
 Ephesians

00:39:26.820 --> 00:39:27.680
 chapter 2

00:39:27.680 --> 00:39:28.539
 he makes

00:39:28.539 --> 00:39:29.180
 them alive

00:39:29.180 --> 00:39:29.740
 in himself

00:39:29.740 --> 00:39:30.340
 he gives

00:39:30.340 --> 00:39:30.619
 them

00:39:30.619 --> 00:39:31.619
 his life

00:39:31.619 --> 00:39:32.340
 this is

00:39:32.340 --> 00:39:32.539
 why

00:39:32.539 --> 00:39:33.239
 salvation

00:39:33.239 --> 00:39:33.840
 is referred

00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:34.219
 to as

00:39:34.219 --> 00:39:34.559
 a new

00:39:34.559 --> 00:39:35.000
 birth

00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:35.199
 in

00:39:35.199 --> 00:39:35.460
 John

00:39:35.460 --> 00:39:36.239
 chapter 3

00:39:36.239 --> 00:39:36.900
 because

00:39:36.900 --> 00:39:37.300
 we're now

00:39:37.300 --> 00:39:37.659
 a new

00:39:37.659 --> 00:39:38.159
 creature

00:39:38.159 --> 00:39:38.779
 in

00:39:38.779 --> 00:39:39.300
 Christ

00:39:39.300 --> 00:39:39.920
 when a

00:39:39.920 --> 00:39:40.239
 person

00:39:40.239 --> 00:39:40.779
 receives

00:39:40.779 --> 00:39:41.219
 Christ

00:39:41.219 --> 00:39:41.779
 they become

00:39:41.779 --> 00:39:42.420
 partaker

00:39:42.420 --> 00:39:43.119
 of an

00:39:43.119 --> 00:39:43.539
 everlasting

00:39:43.539 --> 00:39:44.500
 life

00:39:44.500 --> 00:39:45.000
 you know

00:39:45.000 --> 00:39:45.380
 John

00:39:45.380 --> 00:39:45.679
 3

00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:46.179
 16

00:39:46.179 --> 00:39:46.599
 and

00:39:46.599 --> 00:39:47.519
 6

00:39:47.519 --> 00:39:48.000
 47

00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:48.759
 reveal

00:39:48.759 --> 00:39:49.039
 that

00:39:49.039 --> 00:39:49.320
 he has

00:39:49.320 --> 00:39:49.759
 given us

00:39:49.759 --> 00:39:50.380
 his abundant

00:39:50.380 --> 00:39:50.880
 life

00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:51.320
 in John

00:39:51.320 --> 00:39:51.599
 10

00:39:51.599 --> 00:39:51.920
 10

00:39:51.920 --> 00:39:52.679
 everything

00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:53.099
 about

00:39:53.099 --> 00:39:53.579
 Jesus

00:39:53.579 --> 00:39:54.340
 has to

00:39:54.340 --> 00:39:54.460
 do

00:39:54.460 --> 00:39:54.639
 with

00:39:54.639 --> 00:39:55.119
 life

00:39:55.119 --> 00:39:58.199
 death

00:39:58.199 --> 00:39:58.659
 might be

00:39:58.659 --> 00:39:59.179
 part of

00:39:59.179 --> 00:39:59.539
 where we

00:39:59.539 --> 00:39:59.800
 are

00:39:59.800 --> 00:40:00.019
 but

00:40:00.019 --> 00:40:00.460
 Jesus

00:40:00.460 --> 00:40:00.860
 is

00:40:00.860 --> 00:40:01.340
 life

00:40:01.340 --> 00:40:03.120
 he

00:40:03.120 --> 00:40:03.340
 is

00:40:03.340 --> 00:40:03.500
 the

00:40:03.500 --> 00:40:04.019
 one

00:40:04.019 --> 00:40:06.059
 but

00:40:06.059 --> 00:40:06.340
 I want

00:40:06.340 --> 00:40:06.440
 you

00:40:06.440 --> 00:40:06.500
 to

00:40:06.500 --> 00:40:07.200
 understand

00:40:07.200 --> 00:40:07.500
 that

00:40:07.500 --> 00:40:08.240
 resurrection

00:40:08.240 --> 00:40:09.920
 even if

00:40:09.920 --> 00:40:10.200
 you don't

00:40:10.200 --> 00:40:10.720
 believe in

00:40:10.720 --> 00:40:11.100
 Christ

00:40:11.100 --> 00:40:11.480
 you will

00:40:11.480 --> 00:40:11.660
 be

00:40:11.660 --> 00:40:12.180
 resurrected

00:40:12.180 --> 00:40:12.600
 for a

00:40:12.600 --> 00:40:12.960
 purpose

00:40:12.960 --> 00:40:15.320
 look over

00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:15.700
 in John

00:40:15.700 --> 00:40:16.380
 chapter 5

00:40:16.380 --> 00:40:16.680
 for a

00:40:16.680 --> 00:40:16.940
 moment

00:40:16.940 --> 00:40:17.480
 Jesus

00:40:17.480 --> 00:40:17.980
 declared

00:40:17.980 --> 00:40:18.300
 this

00:40:18.300 --> 00:40:18.620
 it shall

00:40:18.620 --> 00:40:18.920
 come

00:40:18.920 --> 00:40:19.300
 forth

00:40:19.300 --> 00:40:19.640
 that they

00:40:19.640 --> 00:40:20.019
 have done

00:40:20.019 --> 00:40:20.380
 good

00:40:20.380 --> 00:40:20.760
 under the

00:40:20.760 --> 00:40:21.200
 resurrection

00:40:21.200 --> 00:40:21.740
 of life

00:40:21.740 --> 00:40:22.420
 and they

00:40:22.420 --> 00:40:22.920
 have done

00:40:22.920 --> 00:40:23.200
 evil

00:40:23.200 --> 00:40:23.579
 under the

00:40:23.579 --> 00:40:24.079
 resurrection

00:40:24.079 --> 00:40:24.920
 of damnation

00:40:24.920 --> 00:40:25.380
 you know

00:40:25.380 --> 00:40:25.620
 what that

00:40:25.620 --> 00:40:25.900
 means

00:40:25.900 --> 00:40:26.280
 it doesn't

00:40:26.280 --> 00:40:26.480
 matter

00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:26.920
 who you

00:40:26.920 --> 00:40:27.140
 are

00:40:27.140 --> 00:40:27.420
 or what

00:40:27.420 --> 00:40:27.620
 you've

00:40:27.620 --> 00:40:27.780
 done

00:40:27.780 --> 00:40:28.039
 but it

00:40:28.039 --> 00:40:28.200
 does

00:40:28.200 --> 00:40:28.440
 matter

00:40:28.440 --> 00:40:28.840
 what you've

00:40:28.840 --> 00:40:29.000
 done

00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:29.519
 with Christ

00:40:29.519 --> 00:40:29.900
 in this

00:40:29.900 --> 00:40:30.300
 life

00:40:30.300 --> 00:40:32.580
 how you

00:40:32.580 --> 00:40:33.300
 responded

00:40:33.300 --> 00:40:33.660
 to the

00:40:33.660 --> 00:40:33.940
 truth

00:40:33.940 --> 00:40:34.180
 of the

00:40:34.180 --> 00:40:34.680
 gospel

00:40:34.680 --> 00:40:35.180
 makes a

00:40:35.180 --> 00:40:35.620
 difference

00:40:35.620 --> 00:40:37.760
 because

00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:38.420
 one day

00:40:38.420 --> 00:40:38.960
 you will

00:40:38.960 --> 00:40:39.160
 be

00:40:39.160 --> 00:40:39.800
 resurrected

00:40:39.800 --> 00:40:40.760
 you'll

00:40:40.760 --> 00:40:41.100
 either be

00:40:41.100 --> 00:40:41.740
 resurrected

00:40:41.740 --> 00:40:42.760
 to reward

00:40:42.760 --> 00:40:43.420
 through

00:40:43.420 --> 00:40:43.860
 Christ

00:40:43.860 --> 00:40:44.400
 Jesus

00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:45.120
 or you

00:40:45.120 --> 00:40:45.480
 will be

00:40:45.480 --> 00:40:46.060
 condemned

00:40:46.060 --> 00:40:47.039
 to eternity

00:40:47.039 --> 00:40:47.740
 because you

00:40:47.740 --> 00:40:48.420
 have rejected

00:40:48.420 --> 00:40:48.820
 it

00:40:48.820 --> 00:40:49.539
 because of

00:40:49.539 --> 00:40:50.220
 your sin

00:40:50.220 --> 00:40:50.800
 because you

00:40:50.800 --> 00:40:51.539
 have rejected

00:40:51.539 --> 00:40:52.019
 the gift

00:40:52.019 --> 00:40:52.600
 of God

00:40:52.600 --> 00:40:53.180
 I want

00:40:53.180 --> 00:40:53.340
 you to

00:40:53.340 --> 00:40:53.800
 understand

00:40:53.800 --> 00:40:54.200
 God

00:40:54.200 --> 00:40:54.580
 doesn't

00:40:54.580 --> 00:40:54.980
 choose

00:40:54.980 --> 00:40:55.200
 to

00:40:55.200 --> 00:40:56.019
 or want

00:40:56.019 --> 00:40:56.760
 or desire

00:40:56.760 --> 00:40:57.280
 to send

00:40:57.280 --> 00:40:58.019
 an individual

00:40:58.019 --> 00:40:58.500
 to hell

00:40:58.500 --> 00:41:00.599
 the Bible

00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:00.880
 says

00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:01.079
 he is

00:41:01.079 --> 00:41:01.260
 not

00:41:01.260 --> 00:41:01.539
 willing

00:41:01.539 --> 00:41:01.760
 that

00:41:01.760 --> 00:41:02.039
 any

00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:02.320
 should

00:41:02.320 --> 00:41:02.719
 perish

00:41:02.719 --> 00:41:03.239
 but

00:41:03.239 --> 00:41:03.420
 that

00:41:03.420 --> 00:41:03.820
 all

00:41:03.820 --> 00:41:04.039
 should

00:41:04.039 --> 00:41:04.260
 come

00:41:04.260 --> 00:41:04.400
 to

00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:04.820
 repentance

00:41:04.820 --> 00:41:07.519
 but he

00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:07.780
 doesn't

00:41:07.780 --> 00:41:08.159
 force

00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:08.579
 anybody

00:41:08.579 --> 00:41:08.820
 into

00:41:08.820 --> 00:41:09.099
 heaven

00:41:09.099 --> 00:41:09.500
 you know

00:41:09.500 --> 00:41:09.599
 it's

00:41:09.599 --> 00:41:09.880
 kind of

00:41:09.880 --> 00:41:10.280
 logical

00:41:10.280 --> 00:41:10.579
 I don't

00:41:10.579 --> 00:41:10.659
 know

00:41:10.659 --> 00:41:10.920
 about

00:41:10.920 --> 00:41:11.099
 you

00:41:11.099 --> 00:41:11.500
 but people

00:41:11.500 --> 00:41:11.679
 get

00:41:11.679 --> 00:41:12.019
 upset

00:41:12.019 --> 00:41:12.239
 have you

00:41:12.239 --> 00:41:12.539
 ever tried

00:41:12.539 --> 00:41:12.900
 to capture

00:41:12.900 --> 00:41:13.300
 somebody

00:41:13.300 --> 00:41:13.599
 and make

00:41:13.599 --> 00:41:13.860
 them come

00:41:13.860 --> 00:41:14.059
 to your

00:41:14.059 --> 00:41:14.320
 house

00:41:14.320 --> 00:41:14.880
 in the

00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:15.059
 same

00:41:15.059 --> 00:41:15.380
 token

00:41:15.380 --> 00:41:15.780
 why would

00:41:15.780 --> 00:41:16.039
 God

00:41:16.039 --> 00:41:16.440
 force

00:41:16.440 --> 00:41:16.619
 you

00:41:16.619 --> 00:41:16.780
 into

00:41:16.780 --> 00:41:17.039
 heaven

00:41:17.039 --> 00:41:17.239
 if you

00:41:17.239 --> 00:41:17.360
 don't

00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:17.480
 want

00:41:17.480 --> 00:41:17.639
 to be

00:41:17.639 --> 00:41:17.860
 there

00:41:17.860 --> 00:41:18.639
 he offers

00:41:18.639 --> 00:41:19.159
 freely

00:41:19.159 --> 00:41:21.519
 to all

00:41:21.519 --> 00:41:21.800
 that will

00:41:21.800 --> 00:41:22.139
 come

00:41:22.139 --> 00:41:22.820
 he turns

00:41:22.820 --> 00:41:23.480
 none away

00:41:23.480 --> 00:41:24.119
 that come

00:41:24.119 --> 00:41:24.739
 think about

00:41:24.739 --> 00:41:25.219
 what first

00:41:25.219 --> 00:41:25.959
 John tells

00:41:25.959 --> 00:41:26.279
 us in

00:41:26.279 --> 00:41:26.939
 chapter 5

00:41:26.939 --> 00:41:27.279
 it says

00:41:27.279 --> 00:41:27.619
 he that

00:41:27.619 --> 00:41:27.959
 hath the

00:41:27.959 --> 00:41:28.459
 son hath

00:41:28.459 --> 00:41:28.899
 life

00:41:28.899 --> 00:41:29.839
 and he

00:41:29.839 --> 00:41:30.000
 that

00:41:30.000 --> 00:41:30.439
 hath not

00:41:30.439 --> 00:41:30.839
 the son

00:41:30.839 --> 00:41:31.439
 hath not

00:41:31.439 --> 00:41:31.839
 life

00:41:31.839 --> 00:41:32.899
 these things

00:41:32.899 --> 00:41:33.199
 have I

00:41:33.199 --> 00:41:33.399
 written

00:41:33.399 --> 00:41:33.739
 unto you

00:41:33.739 --> 00:41:34.179
 that believe

00:41:34.179 --> 00:41:34.459
 on the

00:41:34.459 --> 00:41:34.719
 name of

00:41:34.719 --> 00:41:35.000
 the son

00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:35.339
 of God

00:41:35.339 --> 00:41:35.659
 that you

00:41:35.659 --> 00:41:36.299
 might know

00:41:36.299 --> 00:41:37.199
 that you

00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:37.699
 have

00:41:37.699 --> 00:41:38.459
 eternal

00:41:38.459 --> 00:41:38.939
 life

00:41:38.939 --> 00:41:39.619
 and that

00:41:39.619 --> 00:41:39.919
 you may

00:41:39.919 --> 00:41:40.319
 believe

00:41:40.319 --> 00:41:40.739
 on the

 hope

00:41:56.259 --> 00:41:56.379
 you

00:41:56.379 --> 00:41:56.579
 don't

 I'm

00:41:59.779 --> 00:42:00.159
 sorry

 error

00:42:01.000 --> 00:42:01.479
 you

00:42:01.479 --> 00:42:01.739

00:42:01.739 --> 00:42:01.919
 the

00:42:01.919 --> 00:42:02.299
 truth

00:42:02.299 --> 00:42:02.479

00:42:02.479 --> 00:42:02.799
 chose

00:42:04.500 --> 00:42:04.839

00:42:04.839 --> 00:42:05.459
 because

00:42:05.459 --> 00:42:06.000
 Jesus

00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:06.319
 is

 a

 dividing

00:42:06.839 --> 00:42:07.239
 line

00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:07.579

 heaven

00:42:09.979 --> 00:42:10.199
 and

00:42:12.899 --> 00:42:13.000
 of

00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:13.099
 the

00:42:13.099 --> 00:42:13.359

00:42:14.599 --> 00:42:14.779
 with

00:42:14.779 --> 00:42:15.119
 Jesus

00:42:15.119 --> 00:42:15.539
 or

00:42:15.539 --> 00:42:15.699
 on

00:42:15.699 --> 00:42:15.820
 the

 are

00:42:17.460 --> 00:42:17.779
 bowed

00:42:17.779 --> 00:42:17.860
 and

00:42:17.860 --> 00:42:18.059
 eyes

00:42:18.059 --> 00:42:18.179
 are

00:42:18.679 --> 00:42:18.960
 morning

00:42:21.840 --> 00:42:22.039
 you're

00:42:22.039 --> 00:42:22.320
 dealing

00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:22.539
 with

00:42:22.539 --> 00:42:22.779

00:42:26.619 --> 00:42:26.800
 many

00:42:26.800 --> 00:42:27.519
 falsehoods

00:42:27.519 --> 00:42:27.759
 about

00:42:27.759 --> 00:42:28.000
 even

00:42:29.119 --> 00:42:29.420
 things

00:42:29.420 --> 00:42:29.619
 like

00:42:29.619 --> 00:42:30.279
 people

00:42:30.279 --> 00:42:30.699
 attach

00:42:31.320 --> 00:42:31.719
 to
