would bring comfort to us 00:07:27.319 --> 00:07:29.879 In our loneliness 00:07:29.879 --> 00:07:35.459 As we face extended separation 00:07:35.459 --> 00:07:37.939 From people that we love 00:07:37.939 --> 00:07:39.659 And from all that is familiar 00:07:39.660 --> 00:07:41.180 We thank you 00:07:41.180 --> 00:07:42.280 That you are the God 00:07:42.280 --> 00:07:43.120 Who promises

--> 00:07:52.400 That you would keep us remembering 00:07:52.400 --> 00:07:54.940 That in all the battles we face 00:07:54.940 --> 00:07:57.580 The greatest battle we face 00:07:57.580 --> 00:07:59.780 Is against the sin in our own lives 00:07:59.780 --> 00:08:02.440 We confess our sin 00:08:02.440 --> 00:08:03.700 And our unbelief 00:08:03.699 --> 00:08:05.659 We confess 00:08:05.659 --> 00:08:05.680 We confess 00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:08.759 Those ways in which 00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:09.740 In our words 00:08:09.740 --> 00:08:10.459 In our actions 00:08:10.459 --> 00:08:11.219 In our thoughts 00:08:11.219 --> 00:08:13.860 We have not lived to glorify You 00:08:13.860 --> 00:08:15.920 We have not lived to love You 00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:17.060 Or to love others 00:08:17.060 --> 00:08:19.240 And we thank You 00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.599 Again for the cross 00:08:21.599 --> 00:08:23.279 And the resurrection of Jesus 00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:25.819 The forgiveness that we have 00:08:25.819 --> 00:08:28.079 The freedom from condemnation 00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:29.339 We have in Him 00:08:29.339 --> 00:08:32.299 Lord we pray 00:08:32.299 --> 00:08:33.539 That You would be 00:08:33.539 --> 00:08:35.299 Our source of peace 00:08:35.299 --> 00:08:37.659 When all around us 00:08:37.659 --> 00:08:39.100 Seems anxious 00:08:39.100 --> 00:08:42.559 We ask that You would cause us 00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:43.480 As Your people 00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:46.220 To have such a settled hope 00:08:46.220 --> 00:08:48.360 That people would notice 00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:49.919 There is something different 00:08:49.919 --> 00:08:51.679 And positive 00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:52.720 And attractive 00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:55.240 About the way we are living 00:08:55.240 --> 00:09:00.340 We ask that You would enable us 00:09:00.340 --> 00:09:02.759 To turn to You 00:09:02.759 --> 00:09:05.440 We ask that 00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:07.759 We would not be anxious 00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:08.740 About anything 00:09:08.740 --> 00:09:09.740 But in everything 00:09:09.740 --> 00:09:12.299 By prayer and petition 00:09:12.299 --> 00:09:13.980 With thanksgiving 00:09:13.980 --> 00:09:15.820 We would present our requests 00:09:15.820 --> 00:09:17.360 To You our God 00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:20.200 And that the peace of God 00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:22.200 Which transcends all understanding 00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:24.259 Would truly guard our hearts 00:09:24.259 --> 00:09:25.179 And our minds 00:09:25.179 --> 00:09:26.779 In Christ Jesus 00:09:26.779 --> 00:09:27.960 At this time 00:09:27.960 --> 00:09:30.500 Lord we love You 00:09:30.500 --> 00:09:32.360 And we know that You love us 00:09:32.360 --> 00:09:34.379 We need You 00:09:34.379 --> 00:09:37.659 We pray that You would constantly be 00:09:37.659 --> 00:09:41.299 Our source of security and refuge 00:09:41.299 --> 00:09:43.299 That we would not be ashamed 00:09:43.299 --> 00:09:46.039 To say we are utterly dependent on You 00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:49.439 And that as we depend on You 00:09:49.439 --> 00:09:52.000 We would find that You would give strength 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:53.899 For us in our weakness 00:09:53.899 --> 00:09:56.340 Now we pray that You would be with us 00:09:56.340 --> 00:10:00.019 As we hear from Your Word 00:10:00.019 --> 00:10:02.699 As we reflect on it together 00:10:02.699 --> 00:10:03.819 As it is preached 00:10:03.819 --> 00:10:05.879 Speak to us we pray 00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:07.519 In Jesus name 00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:08.559 Amen 00:10:08.559 --> 00:10:13.120 Now we are going to read 00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:16.179 In John chapter 16 00:10:16.179 --> 00:10:19.299 So if you have a Bible or a device 00:10:19.299 --> 00:10:21.359 You will want to turn there 00:10:21.359 --> 00:10:22.959 You will want to turn there to John chapter 16 00:10:22.959 --> 00:10:25.439 Last week if you will remember 00:10:25.439 --> 00:10:27.240 We were talking about the Holy Spirit 00:10:27.240 --> 00:10:29.000 In a believer's life 00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:30.419 Especially thinking about the Holy Spirit 00:10:30.419 --> 00:10:32.339 In the life of the church 00:10:32.339 --> 00:10:36.159 Well today we turn to Jesus' words here 00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:38.079 In John 16 to think about 00:10:38.079 --> 00:10:41.219 The Holy Spirit who convicts 00:10:41.220 --> 00:10:43.500 So let's read together 00:10:43.500 --> 00:10:46.639 John chapter 16 from verse 5 00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:48.840 To verse 15 00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:50.139 Let's hear God's Word 00:10:50.139 --> 00:10:53.379 Now I am going to Him who sent me 00:10:53.379 --> 00:10:55.919 Yet none of you asks me 00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:57.500 Where are you going? 00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:00.199 Because I have said these things 00:11:00.199 --> 00:11:02.220 You are filled with grief 00:11:02.220 --> 00:11:04.460 But I tell you the truth 00:11:04.460 --> 00:11:07.639 It is for your good that I am going away 00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:09.799 Unless I go away 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:12.360 The counsellor will not come to you 00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:14.159 But if I go 00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:16.460 I will send him to you 00:11:16.460 --> 00:11:18.300 When he comes 00:11:18.300 --> 00:11:20.919 He will convict the world of guilt 00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:22.340 In regard to sin 00:11:22.340 --> 00:11:23.659 And righteousness 00:11:23.659 --> 00:11:24.800 And judgment 00:11:24.800 --> 00:11:26.220 In regard to sin 00:11:26.220 --> 00:11:28.320 Because men do not believe in me 00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:30.139 In regard to righteousness 00:11:30.139 --> 00:11:32.039 Because I am going to the Father 00:11:32.039 --> 00:11:33.500 Where you can see me no longer 00:11:33.500 --> 00:11:35.360 And in regard to judgment 00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:37.259 Because the Prince of this world 00:11:37.259 --> 00:11:38.480 Now stands condemned 00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:40.960 I have much more to say to you 00:11:40.960 --> 00:11:42.620 More than you can now bear 00:11:42.620 --> 00:11:43.879 But when he 00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:45.500 The Spirit of truth comes 00:11:45.500 --> 00:11:46.900 He will guide you 00:11:46.900 --> 00:11:48.120 Into all truth 00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:50.440 He will not speak on his own 00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:52.700 He will speak only what he hears 00:11:52.700 --> 00:11:54.300 And he will tell you 00:11:54.300 --> 00:11:55.360 What is yet to come 00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:57.820 He will bring glory to me 00:11:57.820 --> 00:11:59.580 By taking from what is mine 00:11:59.580 --> 00:12:01.700 And making it known to you 00:12:01.700 --> 00:12:04.080 All that belongs to the Father 00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:04.700 Is mine 00:12:04.700 --> 00:12:06.480 That is why I said 00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:09.200 The Spirit will take from what is mine 00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:11.000 And make it known 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:12.440 And make it known to you 00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:14.120 Amen 00:12:14.120 --> 00:12:15.280 And we thank God 00:12:15.280 --> 00:12:17.540 For his word 00:12:17.540 --> 00:12:19.580 Now let's think about it 00:12:19.580 --> 00:12:21.120 For a little while 00:12:21.120 --> 00:12:22.140 Together 00:12:22.140 --> 00:12:24.500 Let me begin 00:12:24.500 --> 00:12:26.040 By sharing words 00:12:26.040 --> 00:12:28.740 You may be familiar with 00:12:28.740 --> 00:12:30.500 From the book of Proverbs 00:12:30.500 --> 00:12:31.560 Chapter 27 00:12:31.560 --> 00:12:33.200 And verse 6 00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:34.820 We hear these words 00:12:34.820 --> 00:12:37.220 The wounds from a friend 00:12:37.220 --> 00:12:39.900 Can be trusted 00:12:39.900 --> 00:12:42.200 And when you hear those words 00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:43.740 I wonder if in your mind 00:12:43.740 --> 00:12:45.860 Comes a family member perhaps 00:12:45.860 --> 00:12:48.600 Or a friend who is like that for you 00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:51.900 Somebody who helpfully 00:12:51.900 --> 00:12:53.860 Graciously 00:12:53.860 --> 00:12:57.760 Exposes times when your thinking 00:12:57.760 --> 00:12:58.480 Has been wrong 00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:01.360 When your words or your actions 00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:03.740 Have been wrong 00:13:03.740 --> 00:13:05.879 Someone who does that 00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:07.940 Out of loving concern for you 00:13:07.940 --> 00:13:10.519 And as painful as it was 00:13:10.519 --> 00:13:13.120 It led you to see 00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:15.519 And it led you to change 00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:18.840 Now keep that idea in your mind 00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:19.700 Jesus here 00:13:19.700 --> 00:13:21.659 Is preparing anxious 00:13:21.659 --> 00:13:22.879 And troubled disciples 00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:23.899 For his departure 00:13:23.899 --> 00:13:27.320 John 13 to John 17 00:13:27.320 --> 00:13:29.259 Is a lengthy 00:13:29.259 --> 00:13:32.600 Set of farewell teaching 00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:33.240 From Jesus 00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:35.840 And the theme of the spirit 00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:37.779 Is something that Jesus 00:13:37.779 --> 00:13:38.639 Returns to 00:13:38.639 --> 00:13:40.540 A few times over these 00:13:40.540 --> 00:13:41.879 Chapters 00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:44.019 Jesus here 00:13:44.019 --> 00:13:44.940 Talks about the spirit 00:13:44.940 --> 00:13:46.500 As counsellor 00:13:46.500 --> 00:13:47.540 The spirit who comes 00:13:47.540 --> 00:13:48.879 Alongside of us 00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:50.379 The spirit who will be 00:13:50.379 --> 00:13:52.040 An encourager 00:13:52.040 --> 00:13:54.100 A friend to the disciples 00:13:54.100 --> 00:13:55.519 Just as Jesus was a friend 00:13:55.519 --> 00:13:56.820 To the disciples 00:13:56.820 --> 00:13:58.540 But the spirit also here 00:13:58.540 --> 00:14:00.480 That sense of counsellor 00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:02.000 Has the idea of being an advocate 00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:02.580 And here 00:14:02.580 --> 00:14:04.059 Let's think about 00:14:04.059 --> 00:14:05.559 The spirit as 00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:08.179 A prosecution lawyer 00:14:08.179 --> 00:14:11.220 Like that friend 00:14:11.220 --> 00:14:12.220 From earlier 00:14:12.220 --> 00:14:14.879 The spirit as a prosecution lawyer 00:14:14.879 --> 00:14:16.519 Exposing 00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:19.059 Wrong beliefs 00:14:19.059 --> 00:14:20.019 Wrong behaviours 00:14:20.019 --> 00:14:22.039 For our good 00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:24.080 Not to condemn 00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:25.379 But with the desire 00:14:25.379 --> 00:14:26.100 That we would 00:14:26.100 --> 00:14:27.460 Change 00:14:27.460 --> 00:14:30.280 So here's our idea 00:14:30.280 --> 00:14:30.879 For today 00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:32.340 The Holy Spirit 00:14:32.340 --> 00:14:35.120 Comes from Jesus 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:36.560 As a gift 00:14:36.560 --> 00:14:37.940 To convict 00:14:37.940 --> 00:14:38.600 The world 00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:40.120 About the truth 00:14:40.120 --> 00:14:40.920 Of Jesus 00:14:40.920 --> 00:14:43.160 To turn people 00:14:43.160 --> 00:14:45.400 To believe in Jesus 00:14:45.400 --> 00:14:47.560 The Holy Spirit 00:14:47.560 --> 00:14:47.920 Comes 00:14:47.920 --> 00:14:48.560 The Holy Spirit 00:14:48.560 --> 00:14:49.180 Convicts 00:14:49.180 --> 00:14:49.320 So 00:14:49.320 --> 00:14:50.700 First of all 00:14:50.700 --> 00:14:51.280 And it's important 00:14:51.280 --> 00:14:51.980

The word 00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:53.800 Promise 00:15:53.800 --> 00:15:55.300 And when you 00:15:55.300 --> 00:15:56.320 Read the Old Testament 00:15:56.320 --> 00:15:57.040 And especially 00:15:57.040 --> 00:15:57.660 When you read 00:15:57.660 --> 00:15:58.360 The Old Testament 00:15:58.360 --> 00:15:59.420 Prophets 00:15:59.420 --> 00:16:00.640 You discover there 00:16:00.640 --> 00:16:02.040

one time 00:18:08.180 --> 00:18:09.060 But now 00:18:09.060 --> 00:18:11.860 Jesus by his 00:18:11.860 --> 00:18:12.640 Spirit he says 00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:13.340 He comes to live 00:18:13.340 --> 00:18:13.820 In the hearts 00:18:13.820 --> 00:18:14.400 Of his people 00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:16.660 So Jesus can be 00:18:16.660 --> 00:18:17.759 With his disciples 00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:18.480 And he can be 00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:18.960 With us 00:18:18.960 --> 00:18:20.160 All the time 00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:20.740 And everyone 00:18:20.740 --> 00:18:22.400 And that's good news 00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:23.040 And also 00:18:23.040 --> 00:18:24.240 The spirit 00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:25.160 Allows the rule 00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:25.680 Of Christ 00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:26.259 To spread 00:18:26.259 --> 00:18:26.860 In the world 00:18:26.860 --> 00:18:28.060 In a new way 00:18:28.060 --> 00:18:29.779 Because that good news 00:18:29.779 --> 00:18:30.360 Can be spread 00:18:30.360 --> 00:18:31.519 By his people 00:18:31.519 --> 00:18:34.300 There are some 00:18:34.300 --> 00:18:35.300 Important results 00:18:35.300 --> 00:18:35.980 For us 00:18:35.980 --> 00:18:37.759 As Christians 00:18:37.759 --> 00:18:38.160 Today 00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:40.100 You know 00:18:40.100 --> 00:18:40.700 We are 00:18:40.700 --> 00:18:42.600 Isolated 00:18:42.600 --> 00:18:44.620 Isolated 00:18:44.620 --> 00:18:45.660 From one another 00:18:45.660 --> 00:18:47.400 For the next few weeks 00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:50.440 But you and I 00:18:50.440 --> 00:18:51.280 We are never 00:18:51.280 --> 00:18:53.420 Isolated from Jesus 00:18:53.420 --> 00:18:56.100 By faith 00:18:56.100 --> 00:18:58.560 You are never 00:18:58.560 --> 00:18:59.400 Alone 00:18:59.400 --> 00:19:01.940 Even when you

00:21:01.820 --> 00:21:02.559 To cause us 00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:03.000 To see 00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:04.500 What we couldn't 00:21:04.500 --> 00:21:05.059 Before 00:21:05.059 --> 00:21:06.519 And part of 00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:07.120 How he does that 00:21:07.120 --> 00:21:07.740 Is through this 00:21:07.740 --> 00:21:08.720 Convicting work 00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:09.160 That Jesus 00:21:09.160 --> 00:21:10.180 Speaks of 00:21:10.180 --> 00:21:10.640 So let's 00:21:10.640 --> 00:21:12.080 Turn to that now 00:21:12.080 --> 00:21:13.380 And ask this question 00:21:13.380 --> 00:21:15.519 Why is the Holy Spirit 00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:17.160 Convicting the world 00:21:17.160 --> 00:21:18.900 Good news 00:21:18.900 --> 00:21:20.039 Because maybe we don't 00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:20.580 Hear the word 00:21:20.580 --> 00:21:21.580 Conviction 00:21:21.580 --> 00:21:23.580 Convicted of a crime 00:21:23.580 --> 00:21:24.480 For example 00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:25.840 As good news 00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:27.259 Again let's go 00:21:27.259 --> 00:21:28.059 Back to the Proverbs 00:21:28.059 --> 00:21:29.000 Like the trusted 00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:30.259 Words of a friend 00:21:30.259 --> 00:21:32.740 Listening to the Spirit 00:21:32.740 --> 00:21:33.599 Is good news 00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:35.480 Conviction 00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:37.339 Is a gift 00:21:37.339 --> 00:21:41.639 Because what the Spirit 00:21:41.639 --> 00:21:42.359 Does is he 00:21:42.359 --> 00:21:43.740 Exposes 00:21:43.740 --> 00:21:45.419 Our wrong thinking 00:21:45.419 --> 00:21:47.959 And our wrong beliefs 00:21:47.959 --> 00:21:48.959 About Jesus 00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:51.860 In order to turn people 00:21:51.860 --> 00:21:53.440 To Jesus 00:21:53.440 --> 00:21:56.039 In order that we 00:21:56.039 --> 00:21:56.940 Might believe 00:21:56.940 --> 00:21:58.380 By grace 00:21:58.380 --> 00:22:00.160 That we might be 00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:00.779 Saved 00:22:00.779 --> 00:22:02.059 By faith 00:22:02.059 --> 00:22:04.559 So in terms of 00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:05.220 How we respond 00:22:05.220 --> 00:22:05.900 To this truth 00:22:05.900 --> 00:22:06.299 Today 00:22:06.299 --> 00:22:07.140 All of us 00:22:07.140 --> 00:22:10.960 The desired response 00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:11.700 Is that either 00:22:11.700 --> 00:22:13.059 It would increase 00:22:13.059 --> 00:22:14.120 Our thankfulness 00:22:14.120 --> 00:22:14.620 For the work 00:22:14.620 --> 00:22:15.059 Of the Spirit 00:22:15.059 --> 00:22:15.559 Who comes 00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:16.619 To reveal 00:22:16.619 --> 00:22:17.359 Jesus to us 00:22:17.359 --> 00:22:18.139 And his glory 00:22:18.139 --> 00:22:18.399 So 00:22:18.399 --> 00:22:19.519 And also to make us 00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:20.059 More like 00:22:20.059 --> 00:22:20.740 Jesus 00:22:20.740 --> 00:22:22.000 The Spirit 00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:23.019 Who wants us 00:22:23.019 --> 00:22:23.799 To keep in step 00:22:23.799 --> 00:22:24.139 With him 00:22:24.139 --> 00:22:24.579 So we keep 00:22:24.579 --> 00:22:25.579 Listening to 00:22:25.579 --> 00:22:26.539 And following 00:22:26.539 --> 00:22:27.059 Jesus 00:22:27.059 --> 00:22:28.480 So our response 00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:29.559 Is lives of worship 00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:30.200 And obedience 00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:31.740 To Jesus 00:22:31.740 --> 00:22:33.740 Whatever our circumstances 00:22:33.740 --> 00:22:34.740 In the middle 00:22:34.740 --> 00:22:35.180 Of the trouble 00:22:35.180 --> 00:22:36.400 We find ourselves in 00:22:36.400 --> 00:22:38.099 Or the other response 00:22:38.099 --> 00:22:38.779 And this is if you're 00:22:38.779 --> 00:22:39.480 Not a Christian 00:22:39.480 --> 00:22:40.960 Is that you would 00:22:40.960 --> 00:22:41.420 Listen 00:22:41.420 --> 00:22:44.019 Listen to the Spirit 00:22:44.019 --> 00:22:45.319 In his word 00:22:45.319 --> 00:22:46.980 From Jesus 00:22:46.980 --> 00:22:48.559 Convicting you 00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:50.839 And exposing your guilt 00:22:50.839 --> 00:22:52.700 Like that prosecution lawyer 00:22:52.700 --> 00:22:53.819 So that 00:22:53.819 --> 00:22:56.339 You would repent from sin 00:22:56.339 --> 00:22:57.200 You would turn from it 00:22:57.200 --> 00:22:58.200 And turn to God 00:22:58.200 --> 00:23:00.500 You would trust in Jesus 00:23:00.500 --> 00:23:01.120 His Lord 00:23:01.119 --> 00:23:02.679 And Saviour 00:23:02.679 --> 00:23:05.459 So in verse 8 00:23:05.459 --> 00:23:06.399 Which we read 00:23:06.399 --> 00:23:07.439 Jesus focuses on 00:23:07.439 --> 00:23:08.119 Three ways 00:23:08.119 --> 00:23:08.659 The Spirit 00:23:08.659 --> 00:23:09.779 Will convict 00:23:09.779 --> 00:23:10.739 The world 00:23:10.739 --> 00:23:12.879 When the Spirit 00:23:12.879 --> 00:23:13.359 Comes 00:23:13.359 --> 00:23:14.079 He will convict 00:23:14.079 --> 00:23:14.879 The world of guilt 00:23:14.879 --> 00:23:16.039 In regard to sin 00:23:16.039 --> 00:23:17.479 And righteousness 00:23:17.479 --> 00:23:18.899 And judgment 00:23:18.899 --> 00:23:19.779 So let's look at 00:23:19.779 --> 00:23:20.500 Each of those in turn 00:23:20.500 --> 00:23:21.059 First of all 00:23:21.059 --> 00:23:21.899 Sin 00:23:21.899 --> 00:23:23.139 Verse 9 00:23:23.139 --> 00:23:23.959 In regard to sin 00:23:23.959 --> 00:23:24.939 Because men do not 00:23:24.939 --> 00:23:25.679 Believe in me 00:23:25.679 --> 00:23:26.759 So the sin 00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:27.579 That we're convicted of 00:23:27.579 --> 00:23:28.099 In particular 00:23:28.099 --> 00:23:29.119 Is the sin of not 00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:30.779 Believing in Jesus 00:23:30.779 --> 00:23:31.440 So let's think of 00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:32.339 Three ways 00:23:32.339 --> 00:23:34.980 Where the world 00:23:34.980 --> 00:23:36.420 Fails to believe in Jesus 00:23:36.420 --> 00:23:37.680 Think about the identity 00:23:37.680 --> 00:23:38.240 Of Jesus 00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:39.779 First of all 00:23:39.779 --> 00:23:40.819 John's gospel 00:23:40.819 --> 00:23:41.440 Is really clear 00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:42.200 The Bible is clear 00:23:42.200 --> 00:23:43.599 Jesus is the revelation 00:23:43.599 --> 00:23:44.299 From God 00:23:44.299 --> 00:23:45.920 So John's gospel 00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:46.319 Begins 00:23:46.319 --> 00:23:46.879 In the beginning 00:23:46.879 --> 00:23:47.839 Was the word 00:23:47.839 --> 00:23:48.240 And the word 00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:49.079 Was with God 00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:49.639 And the word 00:23:49.639 --> 00:23:51.099 Was God 00:23:51.099 --> 00:23:52.240 That when we look 00:23:52.240 --> 00:23:52.679 At Jesus 00:23:52.679 --> 00:23:53.379 We are seeing 00:23:53.379 --> 00:23:54.639 The glory of God 00:23:54.639 --> 00:23:55.879 In human form 00:23:55.879 --> 00:23:58.079 Jesus seven times 00:23:58.079 --> 00:23:58.960 In John's gospel 00:23:58.960 --> 00:24:00.559 Describes himself 00:24:00.559 --> 00:24:01.619 As I am 00:24:01.619 --> 00:24:03.220 I am the good shepherd 00:24:03.220 --> 00:24:05.159 I am the bread of life 00:24:05.159 --> 00:24:06.939 I am the vine 00:24:06.939 --> 00:24:08.319 I am 00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:09.279 Was a title for God 00:24:09.279 --> 00:24:10.079 In the old testament 00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:10.619 Jesus saying 00:24:10.619 --> 00:24:11.299 I am God 00:24:11.299 --> 00:24:11.799 And I have come 00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:12.740 To reveal God 00:24:12.740 --> 00:24:14.220 Think about the name 00:24:14.220 --> 00:24:14.900 And the titles 00:24:14.900 --> 00:24:15.599 Of Jesus 00:24:15.599 --> 00:24:16.420 Jesus means 00:24:16.420 --> 00:24:17.819 God saves 00:24:17.819 --> 00:24:19.859 So we need to see 00:24:19.859 --> 00:24:20.740 The identity of Jesus 00:24:20.740 --> 00:24:21.680 As God's saviour 00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:23.140 Christ 00:24:23.140 --> 00:24:24.920 Jesus the Christ 00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:26.440 God's anointed one 00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:27.720 Chosen for a set purpose 00:24:27.720 --> 00:24:28.339 The purpose 00:24:28.339 --> 00:24:30.399 To be that king 00:24:30.399 --> 00:24:31.019 Who would rule 00:24:31.019 --> 00:24:31.839 For us 00:24:31.839 --> 00:24:32.480 To be the prophet 00:24:32.480 --> 00:24:33.039 Who would speak 00:24:33.039 --> 00:24:33.919 God's truth to us 00:24:33.919 --> 00:24:34.599 To be the priest 00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:35.480 Who would give himself 00:24:35.480 --> 00:24:36.699 As the perfect sacrifice 00:24:36.699 --> 00:24:37.519 To make us right 00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:38.019 With God 00:24:38.019 --> 00:24:38.879 To forgive our sin 00:24:38.879 --> 00:24:41.039 And Jesus is the Christ 00:24:41.039 --> 00:24:42.480 And he is the Lord 00:24:42.480 --> 00:24:43.240 And the Lord 00:24:43.240 --> 00:24:43.519 Of course 00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:44.500 The old testament title 00:24:44.500 --> 00:24:45.519 For God himself 00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:47.059 Jesus is God 00:24:47.059 --> 00:24:47.679 God's king 00:24:47.679 --> 00:24:49.679 God's saviour 00:24:49.679 --> 00:24:51.519 That's his identity 00:24:51.519 --> 00:24:52.259 So how do we see 00:24:52.259 --> 00:24:53.179 Unbelief in regard 00:24:53.179 --> 00:24:53.919 To his identity 00:24:53.919 --> 00:24:54.480 Well we see it 00:24:54.480 --> 00:24:55.359 In hostility 00:24:55.359 --> 00:24:58.219 Again as we move 00:24:58.219 --> 00:24:58.819 Towards Easter 00:24:58.819 --> 00:24:59.659 Think about what happens 00:24:59.659 --> 00:25:00.899 Around the cross of Jesus 00:25:00.899 --> 00:25:01.519 We see 00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:03.279 Rejection of Jesus 00:25:03.279 --> 00:25:04.240 Hatred of him 00:25:04.240 --> 00:25:05.639 We see him being 00:25:05.639 --> 00:25:06.579 Falsely accused 00:25:06.579 --> 00:25:07.679 Beaten 00:25:07.679 --> 00:25:08.759 Mocked 00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:10.439 Shamefully put 00:25:10.439 --> 00:25:11.139 To death 00:25:11.139 --> 00:25:13.139 Today 00:25:13.139 --> 00:25:13.919 In our world 00:25:13.919 --> 00:25:14.619 We also see 00:25:14.619 --> 00:25:15.599 Rejection of Jesus 00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:16.159 We see 00:25:16.159 --> 00:25:17.119 Mockery 00:25:17.119 --> 00:25:18.119 Of Jesus 00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:18.759 And his church 00:25:18.759 --> 00:25:20.359 So there's hostility 00:25:20.359 --> 00:25:23.319 And sin and unbelief 00:25:23.319 --> 00:25:24.279 But there's also apathy 00:25:24.279 --> 00:25:27.220 Where people fail 00:25:27.220 --> 00:25:27.980 To take his claims 00:25:27.980 --> 00:25:28.399 Seriously 00:25:28.399 --> 00:25:29.579 Perhaps happy 00:25:29.579 --> 00:25:30.220 To see Jesus 00:25:30.220 --> 00:25:30.940 As a good man 00:25:30.940 --> 00:25:31.700 Perhaps happy 00:25:31.700 --> 00:25:32.399 To hear him 00:25:32.399 --> 00:25:33.819 As a wise teacher 00:25:33.819 --> 00:25:34.299 Some kind of 00:25:34.299 --> 00:25:35.700 Spiritual guru 00:25:35.700 --> 00:25:37.980 But to have that 00:25:37.980 --> 00:25:38.279 Attitude 00:25:38.279 --> 00:25:38.899 Well it's fine 00:25:38.899 --> 00:25:39.819 For you 00:25:39.819 --> 00:25:40.619 To take Jesus 00:25:40.619 --> 00:25:40.960 Seriously 00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:41.819 But he's not 00:25:41.819 --> 00:25:42.319 For me 00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:45.480 To pick and choose 00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:47.019 Jesus says 00:25:47.019 --> 00:25:47.599 He's Lord 00:25:47.599 --> 00:25:48.059 And God 00:25:48.059 --> 00:25:48.759 And he's the only way 00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:49.180 To God 00:25:49.180 --> 00:25:49.980 So it's not enough 00:25:49.980 --> 00:25:50.480 To just say 00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:51.599 He's a good teacher 00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:52.339 Or a good man 00:25:52.339 --> 00:25:53.799 So there's apathy 00:25:53.799 --> 00:25:55.259 In really engaging 00:25:55.259 --> 00:25:56.299 With Jesus 00:25:56.299 --> 00:25:57.099 There's that 00:25:57.099 --> 00:25:59.259 Sin 00:25:59.259 --> 00:26:01.179 Of not believing 00:26:01.179 --> 00:26:01.859 In Jesus 00:26:01.859 --> 00:26:03.019 Also in terms of 00:26:03.019 --> 00:26:03.599 His mission 00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:04.379 You know the Bible 00:26:04.379 --> 00:26:04.740 Is clear 00:26:04.740 --> 00:26:05.379 Jesus came on 00:26:05.379 --> 00:26:06.119 A rescue mission 00:26:06.119 --> 00:26:06.779 Jesus said 00:26:06.779 --> 00:26:07.720 He's come to give 00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:08.839 His life as a ransom 00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:10.199 It's as if we're 00:26:10.199 --> 00:26:11.159 Held hostage 00:26:11.159 --> 00:26:11.699 And Jesus 00:26:11.699 --> 00:26:12.759 Pays in his own 00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:13.319 Body and blood 00:26:13.319 --> 00:26:14.419 The price to set us 00:26:14.419 --> 00:26:14.659 Free 00:26:14.659 --> 00:26:15.399 To forgive us 00:26:15.399 --> 00:26:15.799 And give us 00:26:15.799 --> 00:26:16.559 Eternal life 00:26:16.559 --> 00:26:17.679 But what does 00:26:17.679 --> 00:26:18.559 Unbelief look like 00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:18.899 It means 00:26:18.899 --> 00:26:19.720 There's no 00:26:19.720 --> 00:26:20.819 Repentance 00:26:20.819 --> 00:26:21.939 There's no 00:26:21.939 --> 00:26:22.559 Recognition 00:26:22.559 --> 00:26:23.099 That we need 00:26:23.099 --> 00:26:23.299 That 00:26:23.299 --> 00:26:24.200 There's no 00:26:24.200 --> 00:26:24.839 Faith in 00:26:24.839 --> 00:26:25.019 Jesus 00:26:25.019 --> 00:26:25.339 There's no 00:26:25.339 --> 00:26:26.159 Love for 00:26:26.159 --> 00:26:26.419 Jesus 00:26:26.419 --> 00:26:26.779 There's an 00:26:26.779 --> 00:26:27.359 Unwillingness 00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:28.200 To count 00:26:28.200 --> 00:26:28.700 The cost 00:26:28.700 --> 00:26:29.119 Of being 00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:30.500 A disciple 00:26:30.500 --> 00:26:31.399 Of Jesus 00:26:31.399 --> 00:26:34.779 And if we 00:26:34.779 --> 00:26:35.059 Think about 00:26:35.059 --> 00:26:35.480 The theme 00:26:35.480 --> 00:26:36.279 Of worship 00:26:36.279 --> 00:26:37.899 Positively 00:26:37.899 --> 00:26:38.159 At the end 00:26:38.159 --> 00:26:38.579 Of John's 00:26:38.579 --> 00:26:38.919 Gospel 00:26:38.919 --> 00:26:39.299 In chapter 00:26:39.299 --> 00:26:39.639 20 00:26:39.639 --> 00:26:39.960 We find 00:26:39.960 --> 00:26:40.339 The wonderful 00:26:40.339 --> 00:26:40.899 Example of 00:26:40.899 --> 00:26:41.439 Thomas 00:26:41.439 --> 00:26:42.220 When he 00:26:42.220 --> 00:26:42.579 Meets the 00:26:42.579 --> 00:26:42.859 Risen 00:26:42.859 --> 00:26:43.279 Jesus 00:26:43.279 --> 00:26:43.980 Falls 00:26:43.980 --> 00:26:44.220 On his 00:26:44.220 --> 00:26:44.419 Ease 00:26:44.419 --> 00:26:44.619 He says 00:26:44.619 --> 00:26:45.159 My Lord 00:26:45.159 --> 00:26:45.700 My God 00:26:45.700 --> 00:26:46.419 He worships 00:26:46.419 --> 00:26:46.700 Jesus 00:26:46.700 --> 00:26:47.179 As he 00:26:47.179 --> 00:26:47.819 Truly is 00:26:47.819 --> 00:26:48.059 But 00:26:48.059 --> 00:26:48.720 Sin and 00:26:48.720 --> 00:26:49.159 Unbelief 00:26:49.160 --> 00:26:49.600 Looks like 00:26:49.600 --> 00:26:50.040 A failure 00:26:50.040 --> 00:26:50.759 To glorify 00:26:50.759 --> 00:26:51.220 God 00:26:51.220 --> 00:26:52.240 To 00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:52.660 Failure 00:26:52.660 --> 00:26:53.220 To glorify 00:26:53.220 --> 00:26:53.580 Jesus 00:26:53.580 --> 00:26:54.060 Failure 00:26:54.060 --> 00:26:54.540 To honour 00:26:54.540 --> 00:26:55.259 And love 00:26:55.259 --> 00:26:56.019 Jesus

--> 00:30:07.740 Azure 00:30:07.740 --> 00:30:07.940 To 00:30:07.940 --> 00:30:08.440 제대로 00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:08.940 Way 00:30:08.940 --> 00:30:09.100 Fair 00:30:09.100 --> 00:30:10.840 To 00:30:10.840 --> 00:30:19.400 Harley 00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:21.840 The 00:30:21.840 --> 00:30:22.060 If 00:30:22.060 --> 00:30:24.840 You 00:30:24.839 --> 00:30:32.279 here good news of freedom from a self-help religion maybe you find yourself climbing that ladder 00:30:32.279 --> 00:30:40.199 today trying desperately hard to get to god well the spirit would want to convict you that that 00:30:40.199 --> 00:30:50.399 ladder it is going nowhere and it is leaning on nothing so it will collapse we need jesus to come 00:30:50.400 --> 00:30:58.620 down in order to raise us up to god praise god he did so conviction again is good news when it comes 00:30:58.620 --> 00:31:05.340 to righteousness because it gives us assurance of trusting jesus we are in christ by the spirit 00:31:05.340 --> 00:31:11.660 we are declared righteous as a gift of his grace and we are given the power to do righteousness 00:31:11.660 --> 00:31:18.900 which we were unable to do before one last way the spirit will convict the world and it's in regard 00:31:18.900 --> 00:31:26.340 to judgment verse 11 because the prince of this world now stands condemned 00:31:26.340 --> 00:31:35.100 judgment looking ahead to the cross there demonstrating that the work of christ 00:31:35.100 --> 00:31:43.360 destroys the devil's work so the spirit comes to our our hearts and minds and convicts us 00:31:43.359 --> 00:31:50.259 convinces us that the cross is victory and not defeat lots of people there on the day of the cross 00:31:50.259 --> 00:31:57.219 thought it was the end of jesus and his claims lots of people today still see the cross as defeat 00:31:57.219 --> 00:32:03.099 but the spirit opens our eyes and shows us the truth that the battle has been won by jesus over the 00:32:03.099 --> 00:32:11.659 forces of evil and his death and resurrection and his ascension to glory there are proof for us and the 00:32:11.660 --> 00:32:22.380 spirit also convicts us that the cross stands as a warning sign just as judgment came on the devil 00:32:22.380 --> 00:32:32.779 so it will be for those in the world who reject and rebel against jesus 00:32:32.779 --> 00:32:44.819 the spirit wants to use a megaphone to let us hear you are on the wrong side of history 00:32:44.819 --> 00:32:47.720 if you are not following jesus 00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:56.779 when we think about kids in a playground playing games together team games 00:32:56.779 --> 00:33:04.460 you will notice i'm sure that they always want to switch to be on the winning team 00:33:04.460 --> 00:33:11.039 or they have that sense of that boy that girl they're really good at this sport so i want to be on their 00:33:11.039 --> 00:33:23.160 side there's there's wisdom in that spiritually jesus is the winner the cross is victory his second 00:33:23.160 --> 00:33:25.400 coming will be victory complete 00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:37.040 his resurrection and return to glory are proof of that we need to be on the winning side and the spirit 00:33:37.040 --> 00:33:46.279 wants to show us that to turn us in that direction so there is good news here the holy spirit comes from 00:33:46.279 --> 00:34:00.359 to convict us in that direction so we will believe so today let's hear the spirit as a friend whose wounds can be trusted 00:34:00.359 --> 00:34:13.239 let him expose and convict us of our sin and our unbelief whether we're christian or not 00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:19.939 as christians we are still guilty of sin and unbelief and we want the spirit to show that to us we might 00:34:19.939 --> 00:34:23.879 constantly be returning be repenting every day 00:34:23.879 --> 00:34:33.500 let's ask the spirit to convict us of our foolish attempts at being good enough for god 00:34:33.500 --> 00:34:40.119 so we'd stop resting in ourselves trusting in ourselves and trust and rest in jesus alone for salvation 00:34:40.119 --> 00:34:50.719 and we'd ask the spirit to convict us of the judgment on rebellion and rejection 00:34:50.719 --> 00:34:58.980 so that with a sense of desperation and urgency we would run to jesus or we'd stay close to jesus 00:34:58.980 --> 00:35:02.480 so in response 00:35:02.480 --> 00:35:05.880 may we either 00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:09.820 find ourselves gratefully and increasingly 00:35:09.820 --> 00:35:13.240 worshipping jesus as we are led by the spirit 00:35:13.240 --> 00:35:15.420 or 00:35:15.420 --> 00:35:18.940 if you're not christian 00:35:18.940 --> 00:35:21.960 ask today 00:35:21.960 --> 00:35:23.860 for the gift 00:35:23.860 --> 00:35:23.960 for the gift 00:35:23.960 --> 00:35:26.360 to repent 00:35:26.360 --> 00:35:28.019 to turn away from your sin 00:35:28.019 --> 00:35:30.420 to turn away from your unbelief 00:35:30.420 --> 00:35:34.179 to turn away from the path leading to judgment and destruction 00:35:34.179 --> 00:35:36.220 turn 00:35:36.220 --> 00:35:38.400 and ask for the gift of faith 00:35:38.400 --> 00:35:41.400 that you would believe in jesus 00:35:41.400 --> 00:35:43.300 that you would be saved 00:35:43.300 --> 00:35:45.420 that you too would know that the coming 00:35:45.420 --> 00:35:46.960 of the spirit 00:35:46.960 --> 00:35:48.480 is good 00:35:48.480 --> 00:35:49.700 good news 00:35:49.700 --> 00:35:54.039 now let's 00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:54.960 close 00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:57.300 our time of worship
