00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:12.200
 we're going to read the bible together now so if you'd like to open up to hebrews

00:00:12.200 --> 00:00:15.120
 chapter 10 james if you could come up and read that'd be great

00:00:15.120 --> 00:00:29.480
 so that was hebrews chapter 10 reading from verse 1 to 18

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:42.039
 since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of those realities

00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:47.600
 it can never by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year make perfect

00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:52.719
 those who draw near otherwise would they not have ceased to be offered since the worshippers

00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:58.560
 having once been cleansed would no longer have any consciousness of sins but in these sacrifices

00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:04.240
 there is a reminder of sins every year for it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to

00:01:04.240 --> 00:01:11.180
 take away sins consequently when christ came into the world he said sacrifices and offerings you have

00:01:11.180 --> 00:01:17.540
 not desired but a body you have prepared for me in burnt offerings in burnt offerings and sin offerings

00:01:17.540 --> 00:01:23.719
 you have taken no pleasure then i said behold i have come to do your will o god as it is written

00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:29.939
 of me in the scroll of the book when he said above you have neither desired nor taken pleasure in

00:01:29.939 --> 00:01:35.019
 sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings these are offered according to the law

00:01:35.019 --> 00:01:41.859
 then he added behold i have come to do your will he does away with the first in order to establish the

00:01:41.859 --> 00:01:47.819
 second and by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of jesus christ once for

00:01:47.819 --> 00:01:54.659
 all and every priest stands daily at his service offering repeatedly the same sacrifices which can

00:01:54.659 --> 00:02:02.019
 never take away sins but when christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins he sat down

00:02:02.019 --> 00:02:07.659
 at the right hand of god waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet

00:02:07.659 --> 00:02:13.000
 for by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified

00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:20.280
 and the holy spirit also bears witness to us for after saying this is the covenant that i will make

00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:26.180
 with them after those days declares the lord i will put my laws in their hearts and write them on their

00:02:26.180 --> 00:02:33.979
 minds then he adds i will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more where there is forgiveness

00:02:33.979 --> 00:02:36.939
 of these there is no longer any offering for sin

00:02:36.939 --> 00:02:51.479
 oh good afternoon everyone yep mic's on uh good to see you all my name is dave

00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:59.120
 well i don't know if you're like me how you feel when coming into this place

00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:03.379
 having your temperature checked at the door

00:03:03.379 --> 00:03:09.199
 being asked about symptoms and where you've been lately it's a bit intrusive

00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:16.299
 there's there's a part of me that fears that that temperature gun is going to go off

00:03:16.299 --> 00:03:22.840
 and it's just going to flash red the alarm's going to go off and it's just going to say to me get out

00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:31.579
 you are not allowed in here you are unclean you are defiled people need to stay away from you

00:03:31.580 --> 00:03:37.620
 leave there's just a small fear in me that it's going to happen it hasn't happened yet

00:03:37.620 --> 00:03:49.600
 i think perhaps more than ever i'm appreciating a bit more now what it means to be unclean

00:03:49.600 --> 00:03:58.240
 and being unclean restricting us from places and more painfully from people

00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:09.379
 we can't holiday interstate or overseas we can't feel completely safe when shopping or at the coffee shop

00:04:09.379 --> 00:04:17.540
 i had to watch a friend's wedding via youtube last week but they didn't even know i was there

00:04:17.540 --> 00:04:22.379
 really i couldn't clap um i couldn't cheer

00:04:22.379 --> 00:04:30.000
 just a lot of funerals must be even harder

00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:36.500
 as a church we've been split in two by this the distance there

00:04:36.500 --> 00:04:42.800
 and no doubt those who are who are on zoom every week feel the distance even more

00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:52.660
 being close to me is no longer an expression of intimacy it's an expression of lack of love for me

00:04:52.660 --> 00:04:57.259
 figure that one it's so strange isn't it

00:04:57.259 --> 00:05:06.220
 we're restricted in our singing it's just so unnatural not to express our praise of god our love of god

00:05:06.220 --> 00:05:15.280
 with the lord's supper today we can't share in the one bread gluten-free bread that the wongs make

00:05:15.280 --> 00:05:23.800
 an expression of intimacy in christ but we have these um little wafer things

00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:32.240
 it's different all because of this virus the potential to be unclean

00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:37.819
 i now think twice about hugging family members

00:05:37.819 --> 00:05:47.280
 i have to decide with extended family members whether they're too unclean for me to see them

00:05:47.280 --> 00:05:59.000
 and today might be hitting you hardest of all father's day for me personally it's hard that my dad is still in new zealand

00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:11.319
 this virus is to differing degrees restricting our access to places and more painfully to people

00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:25.240
 so what about being relationally close to god can you access his presence as you are

00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:30.199
 if you think you can why do you think that

00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:38.920
 because god says our sin has made us unclean we are defiled

00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:44.100
 that's a big problem because god is holy

00:06:44.100 --> 00:06:47.960
 how can we come near to him

00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:57.560
 how can we approach him there's only one way because god has prescribed a way for us to come to him

00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:07.060
 in the days of the jewish temple in the old testament god prescribed a way for people to live

00:07:07.060 --> 00:07:11.120
 with god and access his presence

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:17.079
 he prescribed daily sacrifices but most important of all

00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:21.340
 was the sacrifices on the day of atonement

00:07:21.340 --> 00:07:26.420
 it was the most important thing to make unclean people

00:07:26.420 --> 00:07:29.780
 to be able to access a holy god

00:07:29.780 --> 00:07:33.959
 so we learn about this day of atonement in leviticus 16

00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:41.819
 i really encourage you to read it sometime leviticus leviticus 16 and we can find out more detail about

00:07:41.819 --> 00:07:50.299
 what happened on this day in the jewish mishnah which was a jewish writing in the second century a.d

00:07:50.299 --> 00:07:54.299
 so what we're going to do now is just transport back in time

00:07:54.299 --> 00:07:57.579
 and walk in the footsteps of the high priest

00:07:57.579 --> 00:08:04.359
 and see what god prescribed so that people can access god's presence and be in fellowship with him

00:08:04.359 --> 00:08:09.419
 so the day of atonement

00:08:09.419 --> 00:08:20.039
 the mishnah instructs the high priest to leave his house and sleep in the temple for seven days before the day of atonement

00:08:20.039 --> 00:08:24.759
 just to keep himself from any accidental uncleanness

00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:29.259
 i think we're all familiar with quarantine at the moment

00:08:29.259 --> 00:08:34.740
 a deputy was ready to step in in case the high priest became unclean

00:08:34.740 --> 00:08:39.860
 and on the third and seventh day he was sprinkled with the blood of a heifer

00:08:39.860 --> 00:08:44.039
 just in case he had some uncleanness that he wasn't aware of

00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:46.779
 why all this precaution

00:08:46.779 --> 00:08:51.419
 because it is dangerous

00:08:51.419 --> 00:08:54.139
 to approach god

00:08:54.139 --> 00:08:55.980
 it is dangerous

00:08:55.980 --> 00:08:59.279
 to come close to god

00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:03.439
 the very first high priest aaron

00:09:03.439 --> 00:09:05.460
 learned this painfully

00:09:05.460 --> 00:09:08.439
 his sons nadab and abihu

00:09:08.439 --> 00:09:12.319
 went into the temple with unprescribed offerings

00:09:12.319 --> 00:09:14.899
 and fire came out and killed them

00:09:14.899 --> 00:09:18.220
 it is dangerous

00:09:18.220 --> 00:09:20.220
 to approach a holy god

00:09:20.220 --> 00:09:25.200
 if you read leviticus

00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:28.139
 you might get tired of all the detail

00:09:28.139 --> 00:09:30.120
 people who read the bible from the beginning

00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:31.360
 they can get stuck

00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:33.540
 at leviticus because of all the detail

00:09:33.540 --> 00:09:35.800
 but the detail is what's so profound

00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.019
 because it's yelling at us

00:09:39.019 --> 00:09:40.419
 warning us

00:09:40.419 --> 00:09:43.979
 you need to be careful how you approach god

00:09:43.979 --> 00:09:48.259
 you cannot approach god on your own terms

00:09:48.259 --> 00:09:55.159
 and yet how many of us try to

00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:59.759
 we can be flippant

00:09:59.759 --> 00:10:02.919
 with the lord as if he is lonely and needy

00:10:02.919 --> 00:10:05.519
 and just whatever we offer him will be acceptable

00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:10.199
 god is light

00:10:10.199 --> 00:10:12.899
 in him there is no darkness at all

00:10:12.899 --> 00:10:16.399
 for us to be in even a bit unclean

00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:17.740
 a bit of darkness

00:10:17.740 --> 00:10:18.720
 to come near him

00:10:18.720 --> 00:10:19.860
 is dangerous

00:10:19.860 --> 00:10:24.899
 but all the detail in leviticus

00:10:24.899 --> 00:10:26.240
 also says something else

00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:27.820
 it says

00:10:27.820 --> 00:10:31.139
 god wants us to come to him

00:10:31.139 --> 00:10:35.879
 he wants to provide a way for us to come to him

00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:37.720
 to restore fellowship

00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:38.919
 to be near to him

00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:44.399
 and so he graciously provides a way for us to do that

00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:46.259
 and the day of atonement was critical

00:10:46.259 --> 00:10:49.159
 in dealing with people's sin

00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:51.779
 so the jewish calendar

00:10:51.779 --> 00:10:54.519
 it had many feasts

00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:56.000
 to celebrate

00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:57.719
 but on this day

00:10:57.719 --> 00:10:59.980
 all the people fasted

00:10:59.980 --> 00:11:03.079
 the mishnah says

00:11:03.079 --> 00:11:04.039
 the high priest

00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:06.059
 fully bathed five times

00:11:06.059 --> 00:11:08.240
 and washed his hands

00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:08.899
 and his feet

00:11:08.899 --> 00:11:10.519
 a further ten times

00:11:10.519 --> 00:11:11.219
 to be clean

00:11:11.219 --> 00:11:14.480
 instead of wearing his majestic

00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:16.399
 priestly robes

00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:19.759
 he wore white linen garments

00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:21.439
 to represent the humility

00:11:21.439 --> 00:11:23.459
 that should be characterizing the priest

00:11:23.459 --> 00:11:24.199
 and the people

00:11:24.199 --> 00:11:30.039
 then taking a bull

00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:32.159
 the priest

00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:35.419
 laid his hands on the head of the bull

00:11:35.419 --> 00:11:37.279
 confessing his sin

00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:39.439
 and his family's sin

00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:42.000
 and then sacrificed the bull

00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:44.800
 collecting some of its blood

00:11:44.800 --> 00:11:49.100
 and then the moment came

00:11:49.100 --> 00:11:52.740
 that would have just gripped everyone with anticipation

00:11:52.740 --> 00:11:55.120
 the priest went inside

00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:57.800
 not just to the outer holy place

00:11:57.800 --> 00:11:59.380
 but the most holy place

00:11:59.380 --> 00:12:00.880
 behind the curtain

00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:04.139
 this only happened

00:12:04.139 --> 00:12:05.439
 once a year

00:12:05.439 --> 00:12:07.419
 Aaron

00:12:07.419 --> 00:12:09.120
 the first high priest

00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:10.939
 is warned in leviticus 16

00:12:10.939 --> 00:12:11.340
 2

00:12:11.340 --> 00:12:12.939
 by the lord

00:12:12.939 --> 00:12:15.460
 not to come at any time

00:12:15.460 --> 00:12:16.740
 into the holy place

00:12:16.740 --> 00:12:17.840
 inside the veil

00:12:17.840 --> 00:12:19.600
 before the mercy seat

00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:20.460
 that is on the ark

00:12:20.460 --> 00:12:22.360
 so that you may not die

00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:24.019
 not even Aaron

00:12:24.019 --> 00:12:25.299
 could come whenever he wanted

00:12:25.299 --> 00:12:27.500
 only on this day

00:12:27.500 --> 00:12:29.580
 only bringing blood

00:12:29.580 --> 00:12:32.500
 only for this purpose

00:12:32.500 --> 00:12:37.799
 so taking some of the bull's blood

00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:38.460
 he approaches

00:12:38.460 --> 00:12:39.100
 first

00:12:39.100 --> 00:12:40.740
 he puts incense

00:12:40.740 --> 00:12:41.899
 on hot coals

00:12:41.899 --> 00:12:43.500
 so that the most holy place

00:12:43.500 --> 00:12:44.620
 is filled with smoke

00:12:44.620 --> 00:12:45.980
 so that the ark

00:12:45.980 --> 00:12:46.820
 which represents

00:12:46.820 --> 00:12:47.840
 God's presence

00:12:47.840 --> 00:12:48.820
 can't be seen

00:12:48.820 --> 00:12:49.519
 by the priest

00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:50.659
 protecting the priest

00:12:50.659 --> 00:12:53.440
 and then he sprinkles

00:12:53.440 --> 00:12:54.620
 some of the bull's blood

00:12:54.620 --> 00:12:55.840
 once on the ark

00:12:55.840 --> 00:12:57.019
 on the mercy seat

00:12:57.019 --> 00:12:58.699
 and then seven times

00:12:58.699 --> 00:12:59.559
 he sprinkles it

00:12:59.559 --> 00:13:00.600
 at the base

00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:04.399
 by doing this

00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:05.740
 the blood of the bull

00:13:05.740 --> 00:13:09.179
 has been a substitute

00:13:09.179 --> 00:13:10.480
 for him and his family

00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:11.819
 and they are atoned

00:13:11.819 --> 00:13:13.399
 for their sin

00:13:13.399 --> 00:13:15.639
 so atonement

00:13:15.639 --> 00:13:17.960
 is about cleansing

00:13:17.960 --> 00:13:19.360
 from impurity

00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:23.299
 atonement when it comes

00:13:23.299 --> 00:13:24.079
 to objects

00:13:24.079 --> 00:13:25.500
 is about cleansing

00:13:25.500 --> 00:13:26.100
 that object

00:13:26.100 --> 00:13:27.100
 to set it apart

00:13:27.100 --> 00:13:27.779
 for service

00:13:27.779 --> 00:13:28.379
 for the Lord

00:13:28.379 --> 00:13:29.080
 but when it comes

00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:29.639
 to people

00:13:29.639 --> 00:13:31.039
 it's about cleansing

00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:31.679
 that person

00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:33.480
 to set them apart

00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:33.980
 for service

00:13:33.980 --> 00:13:34.440
 of the Lord

00:13:34.440 --> 00:13:35.080
 and bring them

00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:35.860
 into fellowship

00:13:35.860 --> 00:13:36.960
 with the Lord

00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:40.940
 so after making

00:13:40.940 --> 00:13:41.360
 atonement

00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:42.039
 for himself

00:13:42.039 --> 00:13:42.740
 and his family

00:13:42.740 --> 00:13:43.220
 the priest

00:13:43.220 --> 00:13:44.440
 again goes outside

00:13:44.440 --> 00:13:46.620
 this time

00:13:46.620 --> 00:13:47.500
 two goats

00:13:47.500 --> 00:13:49.019
 are brought to him

00:13:49.019 --> 00:13:52.200
 lots are cast

00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:53.700
 to see which goat

00:13:53.700 --> 00:13:54.980
 is going to be

00:13:54.980 --> 00:13:55.759
 the sin offering

00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:56.400
 and which is going

00:13:56.400 --> 00:13:57.440
 to be the scapegoat

00:13:57.440 --> 00:14:00.580
 the one that's

00:14:00.580 --> 00:14:01.259
 a sin offering

00:14:01.259 --> 00:14:03.360
 the priest

00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:04.259
 puts his hand

00:14:04.259 --> 00:14:05.020
 on its head

00:14:05.020 --> 00:14:06.220
 and confesses

00:14:06.220 --> 00:14:07.440
 all the sin

00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:08.660
 of the nation

00:14:08.660 --> 00:14:11.160
 while having his hand

00:14:11.160 --> 00:14:11.640
 on the head

00:14:11.640 --> 00:14:12.240
 of that goat

00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:14.240
 and then sacrifices

00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:14.840
 the goat

00:14:14.840 --> 00:14:15.879
 and collects

00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:17.480
 the goat's blood

00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:21.680
 and again

00:14:21.680 --> 00:14:22.460
 once more

00:14:22.460 --> 00:14:23.139
 he returns

00:14:23.139 --> 00:14:23.960
 inside

00:14:23.960 --> 00:14:25.120
 behind the curtain

00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:27.180
 and sprinkles

00:14:27.180 --> 00:14:28.899
 the blood

00:14:28.899 --> 00:14:31.840
 once on the ark

00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:32.519
 seven times

00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:33.080
 at the base

00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:34.460
 the priest

00:14:34.460 --> 00:14:35.480
 goes back outside

00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:37.519
 and with the other goat

00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:38.639
 puts his hand

00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:39.560
 on the goat's head

00:14:39.560 --> 00:14:40.820
 and again

00:14:40.820 --> 00:14:41.659
 confesses

00:14:41.659 --> 00:14:42.279
 the sin

00:14:42.279 --> 00:14:44.159
 of all the people

00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:47.659
 now this time

00:14:47.659 --> 00:14:49.299
 instead of sacrifice

00:14:49.299 --> 00:14:50.799
 the goat

00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:51.620
 is led away

00:14:51.620 --> 00:14:52.759
 by another person

00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:54.000
 outside

00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:56.120
 away from

00:14:56.120 --> 00:14:56.839
 God's presence

00:14:56.839 --> 00:14:57.959
 away from

00:14:57.959 --> 00:14:58.719
 God's people

00:14:58.719 --> 00:14:59.500
 the community

00:14:59.500 --> 00:15:00.819
 cut off

00:15:00.819 --> 00:15:02.139
 from life

00:15:02.139 --> 00:15:02.860
 and blessing

00:15:02.860 --> 00:15:04.620
 into the wilderness

00:15:04.620 --> 00:15:08.199
 where we get

00:15:08.199 --> 00:15:09.139
 our idea

00:15:09.139 --> 00:15:09.879
 of scapegoat

00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:10.139
 from

00:15:10.139 --> 00:15:13.839
 as the

00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:14.220
 people

00:15:14.220 --> 00:15:14.700
 watch

00:15:14.700 --> 00:15:15.460
 that goat

00:15:15.460 --> 00:15:16.580
 leave

00:15:16.580 --> 00:15:17.379
 the community

00:15:17.379 --> 00:15:18.180
 they would

00:15:18.180 --> 00:15:19.519
 be watching

00:15:19.519 --> 00:15:20.500
 their sin

00:15:20.500 --> 00:15:22.040
 to be taken

00:15:22.040 --> 00:15:22.560
 away from

00:15:22.560 --> 00:15:22.820
 them

00:15:22.820 --> 00:15:27.500
 so after

00:15:27.500 --> 00:15:28.200
 atonement

00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:28.980
 is made

00:15:28.980 --> 00:15:30.160
 the high priest

00:15:30.160 --> 00:15:31.200
 bathes again

00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:32.759
 and the

00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:33.399
 solemn

00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:33.960
 mood

00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:34.560
 of the day

00:15:34.560 --> 00:15:35.280
 is replaced

00:15:35.280 --> 00:15:36.160
 with relief

00:15:36.160 --> 00:15:37.160
 and joy

00:15:37.160 --> 00:15:38.660
 he gets

00:15:38.660 --> 00:15:39.139
 dressed

00:15:39.139 --> 00:15:39.580
 in his

00:15:39.580 --> 00:15:40.139
 majestic

00:15:40.139 --> 00:15:40.820
 robes

00:15:40.820 --> 00:15:41.540
 and offers

00:15:41.540 --> 00:15:42.560
 burnt offerings

00:15:42.560 --> 00:15:43.660
 in worship

00:15:43.659 --> 00:15:44.240
 of the Lord

00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:47.579
 when the

00:15:47.579 --> 00:15:47.959
 day was

00:15:47.959 --> 00:15:48.259
 done

00:15:48.259 --> 00:15:48.480
 the

00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:48.799
 mishnah

00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:49.279
 says

00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:49.539
 that

00:15:49.539 --> 00:15:49.679
 the

00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:49.919
 high

00:15:49.919 --> 00:15:50.159
 priest

00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:50.360
 went

00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:50.659
 home

00:15:50.659 --> 00:15:50.959
 to his

00:15:50.959 --> 00:15:51.360
 family

00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:51.860
 and had

00:15:51.860 --> 00:15:52.500
 a feast

00:15:52.500 --> 00:15:53.539
 to celebrate

00:15:53.539 --> 00:15:54.740
 that he

00:15:54.740 --> 00:15:55.379
 didn't die

00:15:55.379 --> 00:15:57.319
 that the

00:15:57.319 --> 00:15:58.039
 priest

00:15:58.039 --> 00:15:58.699
 survived

00:15:58.699 --> 00:15:59.679
 going into

00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:00.199
 the most

00:16:00.199 --> 00:16:01.000
 holy place

00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:02.860
 and the

00:16:02.860 --> 00:16:03.600
 whole people

00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:04.879
 were celebrating

00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:05.439
 as well

00:16:05.439 --> 00:16:06.759
 their sin

00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:07.100
 had been

00:16:07.100 --> 00:16:07.659
 dealt with

00:16:07.659 --> 00:16:08.819
 and the

00:16:08.819 --> 00:16:09.659
 women danced

00:16:09.659 --> 00:16:11.419
 to express

00:16:11.419 --> 00:16:12.740
 that celebration

00:16:12.740 --> 00:16:13.659
 as a

00:16:13.659 --> 00:16:14.120
 community

00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:18.740
 so that's

00:16:18.740 --> 00:16:19.059
 the day

00:16:19.059 --> 00:16:19.659
 of atonement

00:16:19.659 --> 00:16:25.139
 what would

00:16:25.139 --> 00:16:25.399
 have been

00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:25.899
 understood

00:16:25.899 --> 00:16:26.519
 by this

00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:27.179
 special day

00:16:27.179 --> 00:16:30.059
 i think

00:16:30.059 --> 00:16:30.659
 these things

00:16:30.659 --> 00:16:30.939
 would be

00:16:30.939 --> 00:16:31.279
 understood

00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:32.679
 sin

00:16:32.679 --> 00:16:34.559
 is deadly

00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:35.299
 serious

00:16:35.299 --> 00:16:37.659
 it

00:16:37.659 --> 00:16:38.439
 separates

00:16:38.439 --> 00:16:39.059
 people

00:16:39.059 --> 00:16:39.279
 from

00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:39.679
 god

00:16:39.679 --> 00:16:41.679
 it

00:16:41.679 --> 00:16:42.099
 must

00:16:42.099 --> 00:16:42.319
 be

00:16:42.319 --> 00:16:42.539
 dealt

00:16:42.539 --> 00:16:42.859
 with

00:16:42.859 --> 00:16:43.519
 and it

00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:43.959
 must

00:16:43.959 --> 00:16:44.239
 be

00:16:44.239 --> 00:16:44.479
 dealt

00:16:44.479 --> 00:16:44.799
 with

00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:45.639
 in the

00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:45.839
 way

00:16:45.839 --> 00:16:46.159
 god

00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:46.919
 prescribes

00:16:46.919 --> 00:16:50.639
 i think

00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:51.259
 another thing

00:16:51.259 --> 00:16:52.159
 that people

00:16:52.159 --> 00:16:52.399
 would have

00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:52.719
 understood

00:16:52.719 --> 00:16:53.240
 as well

00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:54.120
 the day

00:16:54.120 --> 00:16:54.779
 after the

00:16:54.779 --> 00:16:55.099
 day of

00:16:55.099 --> 00:16:55.559
 atonement

00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:56.399
 the most

00:16:56.399 --> 00:16:57.139
 holy place

00:16:57.139 --> 00:16:57.819
 was again

00:16:57.819 --> 00:16:58.299
 shut

00:16:58.299 --> 00:17:00.679
 access

00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:01.620
 is denied

00:17:01.620 --> 00:17:02.259
 even to

00:17:02.259 --> 00:17:02.620
 the high

00:17:02.620 --> 00:17:03.019
 priest

00:17:03.019 --> 00:17:07.279
 the presence

00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:07.579
 of the

00:17:07.579 --> 00:17:07.920
 lord

00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:09.099
 could only

00:17:09.099 --> 00:17:09.659
 be accessed

00:17:09.659 --> 00:17:10.279
 by one

00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:10.659
 man

00:17:10.659 --> 00:17:11.519
 once a

00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:11.839
 year

00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:12.539
 for one

00:17:12.539 --> 00:17:13.079
 purpose

00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:13.659
 and he's

00:17:13.659 --> 00:17:13.960
 got to

00:17:13.960 --> 00:17:14.359
 get out

00:17:14.359 --> 00:17:23.219
 this

00:17:23.219 --> 00:17:24.199
 pandemic

00:17:24.199 --> 00:17:25.659
 that we're

00:17:25.659 --> 00:17:26.019
 in

00:17:26.019 --> 00:17:27.279
 has to

00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:28.019
 one degree

00:17:28.019 --> 00:17:28.699
 or another

00:17:28.699 --> 00:17:31.099
 made us

00:17:31.099 --> 00:17:31.679
 all afraid

00:17:31.679 --> 00:17:33.659
 and it's

00:17:33.659 --> 00:17:34.219
 interrupted

00:17:34.219 --> 00:17:35.419
 life

00:17:35.419 --> 00:17:36.059
 with its

00:17:36.059 --> 00:17:36.439
 blessings

00:17:36.439 --> 00:17:39.099
 and we

00:17:39.099 --> 00:17:39.579
 might be

00:17:39.579 --> 00:17:40.099
 tempted to

00:17:40.099 --> 00:17:40.479
 believe

00:17:40.479 --> 00:17:41.019
 along with

00:17:41.019 --> 00:17:41.359
 the rest

00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:41.619
 of the

00:17:41.619 --> 00:17:41.899
 world

00:17:41.899 --> 00:17:42.359
 that if

00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:43.139
 only a

00:17:43.139 --> 00:17:43.759
 vaccine

00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:44.900
 was

00:17:44.900 --> 00:17:45.339
 available

00:17:45.339 --> 00:17:45.920
 that took

00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:46.460
 the virus

00:17:46.460 --> 00:17:46.819
 away

00:17:46.819 --> 00:17:47.440
 then life

00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:47.960
 in all

00:17:47.960 --> 00:17:48.519
 its blessings

00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:49.279
 would return

00:17:49.279 --> 00:17:52.559
 but i want

00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:52.920
 to do a

00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:53.140
 simple

00:17:53.140 --> 00:17:53.799
 comparison

00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:55.779
 to just

00:17:55.779 --> 00:17:56.660
 regain some

00:17:56.660 --> 00:17:57.119
 perspective

00:17:57.119 --> 00:17:58.819
 i don't want

00:17:58.819 --> 00:17:59.079
 to make

00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:00.019
 light of

00:18:00.019 --> 00:18:00.680
 covid of

00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:01.279
 course it

00:18:01.279 --> 00:18:01.759
 is serious

00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:02.599
 of course a

00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:03.140
 vaccine

00:18:03.140 --> 00:18:04.359
 should be

00:18:04.359 --> 00:18:05.420
 searched

00:18:05.420 --> 00:18:05.839
 for

00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:07.720
 let's just

00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:08.039
 do a

00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:08.480
 simple

00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:09.000
 comparison

00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:09.339
 okay

00:18:09.339 --> 00:18:11.099
 as of

00:18:11.099 --> 00:18:11.700
 yesterday i

00:18:11.700 --> 00:18:12.019
 looked up

00:18:12.019 --> 00:18:12.460
 the numbers

00:18:12.460 --> 00:18:13.140
 and total

00:18:13.140 --> 00:18:14.040
 covid cases

00:18:14.040 --> 00:18:14.660
 was close

00:18:14.660 --> 00:18:16.060
 to 27

00:18:16.060 --> 00:18:17.860
 million

00:18:17.860 --> 00:18:18.440
 people

00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:20.200
 27

00:18:20.200 --> 00:18:20.940
 million

00:18:20.940 --> 00:18:24.240
 serious

00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:27.759
 but as

00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:28.340
 of yesterday

00:18:28.340 --> 00:18:29.860
 total and

00:18:29.860 --> 00:18:30.960
 active cases

00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:31.660
 of sin

00:18:31.660 --> 00:18:32.900
 was approaching

00:18:32.900 --> 00:18:33.840
 8 billion

00:18:33.840 --> 00:18:38.000
 covid has

00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:38.840
 tragically

00:18:38.839 --> 00:18:40.099
 taken close

00:18:40.099 --> 00:18:40.980
 to 900

00:18:40.980 --> 00:18:42.399
 000 people's

00:18:42.399 --> 00:18:43.339
 lives and

00:18:43.339 --> 00:18:44.379
 devastated their

00:18:44.379 --> 00:18:44.839
 families

00:18:44.839 --> 00:18:46.859
 it's horrible

00:18:46.859 --> 00:18:50.339
 but just

00:18:50.339 --> 00:18:51.279
 consider for a

00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:51.980
 moment how

00:18:51.980 --> 00:18:52.859
 many people in

00:18:52.859 --> 00:18:53.519
 the world are

00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:54.339
 dying in their

00:18:54.339 --> 00:18:56.559
 sin and are

00:18:56.559 --> 00:18:57.279
 going to be cut

00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:58.019
 off from the

00:18:58.019 --> 00:18:58.879
 life of knowing

00:18:58.879 --> 00:18:59.299
 god

00:18:59.299 --> 00:19:04.480
 sin is

00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:05.180
 deadly

00:19:05.180 --> 00:19:05.839
 serious

00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:06.160
 it

00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:06.860
 separates

00:19:06.860 --> 00:19:07.620
 people from

00:19:07.620 --> 00:19:08.039
 god

00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:09.900
 it must

00:19:09.900 --> 00:19:10.299
 be dealt

00:19:10.299 --> 00:19:10.819
 with and

00:19:10.819 --> 00:19:11.279
 it must

00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:11.700
 be dealt

00:19:11.700 --> 00:19:12.019
 with in

00:19:12.019 --> 00:19:12.299
 the way

00:19:12.299 --> 00:19:12.940
 god

00:19:12.940 --> 00:19:14.299
 prescribes

00:19:14.299 --> 00:19:19.299
 so in

00:19:19.299 --> 00:19:20.000
 the past

00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:20.860
 god

00:19:20.860 --> 00:19:21.539
 graciously

00:19:21.539 --> 00:19:22.380
 provided the

00:19:22.380 --> 00:19:22.720
 day of

00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:23.500
 atonement but

00:19:23.500 --> 00:19:24.700
 as hebrews 10

00:19:24.700 --> 00:19:25.299
 verse 1

00:19:25.299 --> 00:19:25.759
 says

00:19:25.759 --> 00:19:27.380
 this day

00:19:27.380 --> 00:19:27.900
 along with

00:19:27.900 --> 00:19:28.380
 the rest

00:19:28.380 --> 00:19:28.740
 of the

00:19:28.740 --> 00:19:29.680
 mosaic law

00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:30.440
 was only

00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:31.019
 ever a

00:19:31.019 --> 00:19:31.420
 shadow

00:19:31.420 --> 00:19:32.400
 of the

00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:33.000
 real things

00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:33.380
 to come

00:19:33.380 --> 00:19:33.900
 it was a

00:19:33.900 --> 00:19:34.380
 blueprint

00:19:34.380 --> 00:19:35.240
 for the

00:19:35.240 --> 00:19:36.080
 real thing

00:19:36.080 --> 00:19:36.980
 and the

00:19:36.980 --> 00:19:37.480
 real thing

00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:38.160
 has come

00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:40.279
 this is the

00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:41.019
 good news of

00:19:41.019 --> 00:19:41.720
 hebrews this

00:19:41.720 --> 00:19:42.180
 is a good

00:19:42.180 --> 00:19:42.940
 news for us

00:19:42.940 --> 00:19:43.940
 this afternoon

00:19:43.940 --> 00:19:46.060
 the author

00:19:46.060 --> 00:19:46.759
 wants us to

00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:47.539
 hear that

00:19:47.539 --> 00:19:48.340
 you can

00:19:48.340 --> 00:19:50.080
 access god

00:19:50.080 --> 00:19:51.580
 with confidence

00:19:51.580 --> 00:19:53.820
 confidence

00:19:53.820 --> 00:19:54.940
 not fear

00:19:54.940 --> 00:19:59.460
 but only

00:19:59.460 --> 00:20:00.140
 through

00:20:00.140 --> 00:20:02.280
 the once

00:20:02.280 --> 00:20:02.700
 for all

00:20:02.700 --> 00:20:03.259
 sacrifice

00:20:03.259 --> 00:20:03.880
 of christ

00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:07.280
 the old

00:20:07.280 --> 00:20:08.040
 sacrifices

00:20:08.040 --> 00:20:09.000
 could only

00:20:09.000 --> 00:20:10.020
 point forward

00:20:10.020 --> 00:20:10.640
 to forgiveness

00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:11.520
 they couldn't

00:20:11.520 --> 00:20:12.060
 deal with

00:20:12.060 --> 00:20:12.460
 sin

00:20:12.460 --> 00:20:14.960
 otherwise

00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:15.640
 would they

00:20:15.640 --> 00:20:16.080
 not have

00:20:16.080 --> 00:20:16.740
 ceased to

00:20:16.740 --> 00:20:17.160
 be offered

00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:17.759
 since the

00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:18.300
 worshippers

00:20:18.300 --> 00:20:19.000
 having once

00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:20.280
 been cleansed

00:20:20.280 --> 00:20:20.820
 would no

00:20:20.820 --> 00:20:21.440
 longer have

00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:22.300
 any conscience

00:20:22.300 --> 00:20:23.120
 of sin

00:20:23.120 --> 00:20:24.900
 but they

00:20:24.900 --> 00:20:25.520
 repeated

00:20:25.520 --> 00:20:26.140
 year

00:20:26.140 --> 00:20:27.660
 after year

00:20:27.660 --> 00:20:28.680
 all that

00:20:28.680 --> 00:20:29.240
 was doing

00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:29.640
 is

00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:31.200
 saying a

00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:31.740
 reminder

00:20:31.740 --> 00:20:32.580
 that sin

00:20:32.580 --> 00:20:33.360
 is here

00:20:33.360 --> 00:20:34.200
 sin must

00:20:34.200 --> 00:20:34.660
 be dealt

00:20:34.660 --> 00:20:34.840
 with

00:20:34.840 --> 00:20:35.140
 it was

00:20:35.140 --> 00:20:35.540
 pointing

00:20:35.540 --> 00:20:36.120
 forward

00:20:36.120 --> 00:20:36.540
 to the

00:20:36.540 --> 00:20:37.240
 true day

00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:37.800
 of atonement

00:20:37.800 --> 00:20:38.779
 when christ

00:20:38.779 --> 00:20:39.180
 came

00:20:39.180 --> 00:20:41.640
 so why

00:20:41.640 --> 00:20:42.100
 couldn't the

00:20:42.100 --> 00:20:42.420
 blood of

00:20:42.420 --> 00:20:42.900
 animals

00:20:42.900 --> 00:20:43.960
 deal with

00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:44.300
 sin

00:20:44.300 --> 00:20:45.680
 because it's

00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:46.240
 impossible

00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:47.040
 for the

00:20:47.040 --> 00:20:47.480
 blood of

00:20:47.480 --> 00:20:48.000
 bulls and

00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:48.440
 goats to

00:20:48.440 --> 00:20:48.940
 take away

00:20:48.940 --> 00:20:49.360
 sins

00:20:49.360 --> 00:20:50.220
 animals could

00:20:50.220 --> 00:20:50.820
 not be

00:20:50.820 --> 00:20:51.519
 an adequate

00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:52.060
 substitute

00:20:52.060 --> 00:20:52.680
 for you

00:20:52.680 --> 00:20:53.140
 a human

00:20:53.140 --> 00:20:53.980
 being made

00:20:53.980 --> 00:20:54.240
 in the

00:20:54.240 --> 00:20:54.580
 image of

00:20:54.579 --> 00:20:54.919
 god

00:20:54.919 --> 00:20:58.119
 so jesus

00:20:58.119 --> 00:20:58.740
 was sent

00:20:58.740 --> 00:21:00.179
 here not

00:21:00.179 --> 00:21:00.579
 to offer

00:21:00.579 --> 00:21:01.399
 more animals

00:21:01.399 --> 00:21:02.079
 but he

00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:02.399
 was given

00:21:02.399 --> 00:21:02.879
 a body

00:21:02.879 --> 00:21:05.619
 like us

00:21:05.619 --> 00:21:06.859
 to represent

00:21:06.859 --> 00:21:07.579
 us so that

00:21:07.579 --> 00:21:07.819
 he could

00:21:07.819 --> 00:21:08.419
 offer it

00:21:08.419 --> 00:21:08.720
 in our

00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:09.179
 place

00:21:09.179 --> 00:21:11.699
 unlike the

00:21:11.699 --> 00:21:12.439
 high priest

00:21:12.439 --> 00:21:14.299
 in the

00:21:14.299 --> 00:21:14.879
 old testament

00:21:14.879 --> 00:21:15.439
 he didn't

00:21:15.439 --> 00:21:16.000
 need to

00:21:16.000 --> 00:21:16.279
 offer

00:21:16.279 --> 00:21:17.019
 sacrifices

00:21:17.019 --> 00:21:17.419
 for his

00:21:17.419 --> 00:21:17.919
 own sin

00:21:17.919 --> 00:21:18.799
 because he

00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:19.500
 was sinless

00:21:19.500 --> 00:21:19.899
 he's the

00:21:19.899 --> 00:21:20.679
 only man

00:21:20.679 --> 00:21:21.960
 who fully

00:21:21.960 --> 00:21:22.579
 pleased the

00:21:22.579 --> 00:21:22.960
 father

00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:26.380
 so not

00:21:26.380 --> 00:21:27.000
 repeated

00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:27.740
 sacrifices

00:21:27.740 --> 00:21:28.420
 but one

00:21:28.420 --> 00:21:29.880
 not animals

00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:30.700
 but a

00:21:30.700 --> 00:21:31.240
 man not

00:21:31.240 --> 00:21:31.720
 just any

00:21:31.720 --> 00:21:33.039
 man but

00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:33.460
 the son

00:21:33.460 --> 00:21:34.019
 of god

00:21:34.019 --> 00:21:36.880
 his body

00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:37.700
 wasn't taken

00:21:37.700 --> 00:21:38.340
 away from

00:21:38.340 --> 00:21:38.680
 him by

00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:39.480
 force like

00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:40.000
 the animals

00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:41.539
 his body

00:21:41.539 --> 00:21:42.160
 was offered

00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:43.279
 willingly

00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:45.319
 in obedience

00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:46.120
 to his

00:21:46.120 --> 00:21:46.460
 father

00:21:46.460 --> 00:21:52.559
 so emma

00:21:53.679 --> 00:21:54.299
 the privilege

00:21:54.299 --> 00:21:54.779
 of going

00:21:54.779 --> 00:21:55.480
 to japan

00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:56.720
 in december

00:21:56.720 --> 00:21:59.379
 it feels

00:21:59.379 --> 00:22:00.099
 weird saying

00:22:00.099 --> 00:22:01.119
 that that

00:22:01.119 --> 00:22:01.619
 seems like

00:22:01.619 --> 00:22:02.559
 years ago

00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:03.639
 so much

00:22:03.639 --> 00:22:04.079
 has happened

00:22:04.079 --> 00:22:04.599
 this year

00:22:04.599 --> 00:22:08.119
 in kyoto

00:22:08.119 --> 00:22:09.859

00:22:09.859 --> 00:22:10.519
 of shinto

00:22:10.519 --> 00:22:11.500
 shrines

00:22:11.500 --> 00:22:12.940
 and buddhist

00:22:12.940 --> 00:22:13.419
 temples

00:22:13.419 --> 00:22:14.379
 up in

00:22:14.379 --> 00:22:15.440
 a hilly

00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:16.379
 mountainous

00:22:16.379 --> 00:22:16.879
 area

00:22:16.879 --> 00:22:17.519
 overlooking

00:22:17.519 --> 00:22:17.940
 the city

00:22:17.940 --> 00:22:19.600
 and we

00:22:19.600 --> 00:22:20.500
 went up

00:22:20.500 --> 00:22:20.759
 there

00:22:20.759 --> 00:22:21.360
 walking

00:22:21.360 --> 00:22:21.779
 in the

00:22:21.779 --> 00:22:22.360
 bushland

00:22:22.360 --> 00:22:22.640
 it was

00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:22.960
 just

00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:23.779
 so

00:22:23.779 --> 00:22:24.360
 so

00:22:24.360 --> 00:22:24.759
 beautiful

00:22:24.759 --> 00:22:25.180
 we didn't

00:22:25.180 --> 00:22:25.620
 quite go

00:22:25.620 --> 00:22:26.120
 in autumn

00:22:26.120 --> 00:22:27.220
 with the

00:22:27.220 --> 00:22:27.620
 bloom

00:22:27.620 --> 00:22:28.620
 but just

00:22:28.620 --> 00:22:29.279
 afterwards

00:22:29.279 --> 00:22:30.059
 and gee

00:22:30.059 --> 00:22:30.500
 it's

00:22:30.500 --> 00:22:30.920
 stunning

00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:31.700
 the air

00:22:31.700 --> 00:22:32.160
 was so

00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:32.680
 crisp

00:22:32.680 --> 00:22:33.240
 it was

00:22:33.240 --> 00:22:34.160
 so quiet

00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:34.900
 all i could

00:22:34.900 --> 00:22:35.600
 hear was

00:22:35.600 --> 00:22:36.120
 my own

00:22:36.120 --> 00:22:36.620
 footsteps

00:22:36.620 --> 00:22:37.820
 and in

00:22:37.820 --> 00:22:38.279
 the background

00:22:38.279 --> 00:22:38.860
 i could hear

00:22:38.860 --> 00:22:39.539
 the chanting

00:22:39.539 --> 00:22:40.259
 of buddhist

00:22:40.259 --> 00:22:40.720
 monks

00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:42.420
 and the

00:22:42.420 --> 00:22:42.860
 temples

00:22:42.860 --> 00:22:43.279
 are just

00:22:43.279 --> 00:22:43.539
 these

00:22:43.539 --> 00:22:44.220
 beautiful

00:22:44.220 --> 00:22:44.700
 wooden

00:22:44.700 --> 00:22:45.360
 beams

00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:46.319
 and the

00:22:46.319 --> 00:22:47.019
 curved

00:22:47.019 --> 00:22:47.939
 roofs

00:22:47.939 --> 00:22:48.359
 of the

00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:48.799
 tile

00:22:48.799 --> 00:22:49.119
 it's

00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:49.379
 just

00:22:49.379 --> 00:22:50.639
 it's

00:22:50.639 --> 00:22:51.059
 stunning

00:22:51.059 --> 00:22:52.939
 and and we

00:22:52.939 --> 00:22:53.579
 went inside

00:22:53.579 --> 00:22:54.059
 one of these

00:22:54.059 --> 00:22:54.500
 temples

00:22:54.500 --> 00:22:55.379
 took off our

00:22:55.379 --> 00:22:55.740
 shoes

00:22:55.740 --> 00:22:57.099
 and a man

00:22:57.099 --> 00:22:57.599
 was in there

00:22:57.599 --> 00:22:58.439
 on his knees

00:22:58.439 --> 00:22:59.519
 bowing and

00:22:59.519 --> 00:23:00.059
 praying to

00:23:00.059 --> 00:23:00.399
 buddha

00:23:00.399 --> 00:23:03.199
 now it felt

00:23:03.199 --> 00:23:04.139
 like a special

00:23:04.139 --> 00:23:05.359
 place it felt

00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:06.619
 like a holy

00:23:06.619 --> 00:23:07.279
 place

00:23:07.279 --> 00:23:08.879
 i could see

00:23:08.879 --> 00:23:09.439
 the appeal

00:23:09.439 --> 00:23:09.959
 to it

00:23:09.959 --> 00:23:14.779
 but that's

00:23:14.779 --> 00:23:15.940
 nothing

00:23:15.940 --> 00:23:18.359
 nothing

00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:19.779
 compared to

00:23:19.779 --> 00:23:20.359
 what christ

00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:20.899
 offers you

00:23:20.899 --> 00:23:21.319
 and i

 hebrews

00:23:25.259 --> 00:23:26.099
 9 24

00:23:26.099 --> 00:23:27.220

00:23:27.220 --> 00:23:28.720
 has entered

00:23:28.720 --> 00:23:29.759
 into heaven

00:23:29.759 --> 00:23:30.599
 itself

00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:33.359
 now to

00:23:33.359 --> 00:23:34.099
 appear in

00:23:34.099 --> 00:23:34.579
 the presence

00:23:34.579 --> 00:23:35.139
 of god

00:23:35.139 --> 00:23:35.680
 on our

00:23:35.680 --> 00:23:36.319
 behalf

00:23:36.319 --> 00:23:37.000
 he didn't

00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:37.420
 go into

00:23:37.420 --> 00:23:37.899
 a temple

00:23:37.899 --> 00:23:38.480
 made by

00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:39.379
 human hands

00:23:39.379 --> 00:23:41.639
 in the

00:23:41.639 --> 00:23:41.940

 of phrase

 and in

 japan

00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:32.440
 i also

00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:33.299
 saw that

00:24:33.299 --> 00:24:35.240
 with shinto

00:24:35.240 --> 00:24:35.879
 beliefs

00:24:35.879 --> 00:24:36.579
 to keep

00:24:36.579 --> 00:24:37.399
 evil spirits

00:24:37.399 --> 00:24:37.799
 away

00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:38.799
 to stop

00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:39.839
 them wreaking

00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:40.339
 havoc

00:24:40.339 --> 00:24:41.299
 in your

00:24:41.299 --> 00:24:41.779
 life

00:24:41.779 --> 00:24:42.919
 they would

00:24:42.919 --> 00:24:43.279
 go to

00:24:43.279 --> 00:24:43.879
 the shrines

00:24:43.879 --> 00:24:44.199
 of their

00:24:44.199 --> 00:24:44.799
 ancestors

00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:45.659
 they would

00:24:45.659 --> 00:24:46.139
 wash their

00:24:46.139 --> 00:24:46.679
 hands

00:24:46.679 --> 00:24:47.539
 they would

00:24:47.539 --> 00:24:48.039
 bow

00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:49.779
 in respect

00:24:49.779 --> 00:24:50.539
 and clap

00:24:50.539 --> 00:24:52.679
 to drive

00:24:52.679 --> 00:24:53.019
 the evil

00:24:53.019 --> 00:24:53.679
 spirits away

00:24:53.679 --> 00:24:54.240
 and repeat

00:24:54.240 --> 00:24:54.819
 that again

00:24:54.819 --> 00:24:58.259
 but the real

00:24:58.259 --> 00:24:58.859
 problem

00:24:58.859 --> 00:24:59.799
 says god

00:24:59.799 --> 00:25:00.399
 is not

00:25:00.399 --> 00:25:01.039
 the evil

00:25:01.039 --> 00:25:01.359
 that is

00:25:01.359 --> 00:25:02.019
 outside

00:25:02.019 --> 00:25:02.699
 but the

00:25:02.699 --> 00:25:03.139
 evil that

00:25:03.139 --> 00:25:03.939
 is inside

00:25:03.940 --> 00:25:06.500
 it's what's

00:25:06.500 --> 00:25:07.180
 inside

00:25:07.180 --> 00:25:08.500
 that defiles

00:25:08.500 --> 00:25:09.120
 a person

 jesus said

 mark 7

00:25:14.340 --> 00:25:15.320
 it's what

00:25:15.320 --> 00:25:16.259
 comes out

00:25:16.259 --> 00:25:17.019
 of a person

00:25:17.019 --> 00:25:17.960
 that defiles

00:25:17.960 --> 00:25:18.279
 him

00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:20.160
 for from

00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:20.639
 within

00:25:38.700 --> 00:25:39.960
 pride

00:25:39.960 --> 00:25:41.639
 foolishness

00:25:41.639 --> 00:25:43.500
 all these

00:25:43.500 --> 00:25:44.160
 evil things

00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:44.639
 come from

00:25:44.639 --> 00:25:44.960
 within

00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:45.359
 and they

00:25:45.359 --> 00:25:46.099
 defile

00:25:46.099 --> 00:25:46.720
 a person

00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:49.299
 the problem

00:25:49.299 --> 00:25:49.700
 is in

00:25:49.700 --> 00:25:50.100
 here

00:25:50.100 --> 00:25:51.740
 in me

00:25:51.740 --> 00:25:53.240
 not out

00:25:53.240 --> 00:25:53.660
 there

00:25:53.660 --> 00:25:56.880
 you can

00:25:56.880 --> 00:25:57.279
 try and

00:25:57.279 --> 00:25:57.700
 clap

00:25:57.700 --> 00:25:58.779
 evil away

00:25:58.779 --> 00:25:59.620
 you can

00:25:59.620 --> 00:26:00.420
 try and

00:26:00.420 --> 00:26:00.980
 drink a lot

00:26:00.980 --> 00:26:01.579
 of alcohol

00:26:01.579 --> 00:26:02.279
 to numb

00:26:02.279 --> 00:26:02.839
 the pain

00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:03.140
 of your

00:26:03.140 --> 00:26:03.600
 conscience

00:26:03.600 --> 00:26:04.259
 but jesus

00:26:04.259 --> 00:26:04.960
 offers you

00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:05.860
 a real

00:26:05.860 --> 00:26:06.860
 way to

00:26:06.860 --> 00:26:07.339
 cleanse your

00:26:07.339 --> 00:26:07.740
 conscience

00:26:07.740 --> 00:26:09.319
 because he

00:26:09.319 --> 00:26:10.319
 actually deals

00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:10.660
 with your

00:26:10.660 --> 00:26:11.000
 sin

00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:12.980
 his blood

00:26:12.980 --> 00:26:14.259
 actually pays

00:26:14.259 --> 00:26:14.700
 for your

00:26:14.700 --> 00:26:15.100
 sin

00:26:15.099 --> 00:26:18.679
 he came

00:26:18.679 --> 00:26:19.279
 as a sin

00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:19.699
 offering

00:26:19.699 --> 00:26:20.299
 in your

00:26:20.299 --> 00:26:20.839
 place

00:26:20.839 --> 00:26:22.500
 a scapegoat

00:26:22.500 --> 00:26:23.399
 to take

00:26:23.399 --> 00:26:23.859
 your sins

00:26:23.859 --> 00:26:24.480
 away from

00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:24.779
 you

00:26:24.779 --> 00:26:31.359
 and so

00:26:31.359 --> 00:26:32.139
 unlike the

00:26:32.139 --> 00:26:32.759
 priests of

00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:33.539
 many religions

00:26:33.539 --> 00:26:34.079
 around the

00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:34.519
 world who

00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:35.000
 are still

00:26:35.000 --> 00:26:36.000
 standing and

00:26:36.000 --> 00:26:36.539
 offering

00:26:36.539 --> 00:26:37.519
 sacrifices

00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:38.939
 unlike the

00:26:38.939 --> 00:26:39.279
 jewish

00:26:39.279 --> 00:26:39.879
 priests who

00:26:39.879 --> 00:26:40.659
 stood every

00:26:40.659 --> 00:26:41.439
 day in the

00:26:41.439 --> 00:26:41.799
 temple

00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:42.879
 christ is

00:26:42.879 --> 00:26:43.779
 sitting down

00:26:43.779 --> 00:26:46.339
 not because

00:26:46.339 --> 00:26:47.039
 he's lazy

00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:49.279
 but because

00:26:49.279 --> 00:26:49.759
 his work

00:26:49.759 --> 00:26:50.399
 is done

00:26:50.399 --> 00:26:53.299
 you can't

00:26:53.299 --> 00:26:54.180
 do anything

00:26:54.180 --> 00:26:55.779
 for the rest

00:26:55.779 --> 00:26:56.279
 of the day

00:26:56.279 --> 00:26:57.119
 that can add

00:26:57.119 --> 00:26:57.899
 to your

00:26:57.899 --> 00:26:58.379
 cleansing

00:26:58.379 --> 00:26:59.180
 before god

00:26:59.180 --> 00:27:00.200
 he's done

00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:00.399
 it

00:27:00.399 --> 00:27:01.039
 it is

00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:01.480
 done

00:27:01.480 --> 00:27:02.299
 so he's

00:27:02.299 --> 00:27:03.639
 sat down

00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:11.200
 but don't

00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:12.200
 think that

00:27:12.200 --> 00:27:12.500
 you can

00:27:12.500 --> 00:27:13.160
 approach god

00:27:13.160 --> 00:27:13.460
 on your

00:27:13.460 --> 00:27:13.800
 own

00:27:13.800 --> 00:27:14.220
 that you

00:27:14.220 --> 00:27:14.840
 don't need

00:27:14.840 --> 00:27:15.440
 a priest

00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:18.060
 that david

00:27:18.060 --> 00:27:18.540
 isn't a

00:27:18.540 --> 00:27:19.000
 priest

00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:20.040
 bow and

00:27:20.040 --> 00:27:20.840
 adam rob

00:27:20.840 --> 00:27:21.960
 none of us

00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:22.640
 are priests

00:27:22.640 --> 00:27:24.140
 well we're all

00:27:24.140 --> 00:27:24.980
 priests in christ

00:27:24.980 --> 00:27:25.600
 but none of us

00:27:25.600 --> 00:27:26.120
 are high

00:27:26.120 --> 00:27:26.740
 priests

00:27:26.740 --> 00:27:28.540
 but don't

00:27:28.540 --> 00:27:29.020
 think you can

00:27:29.020 --> 00:27:30.140
 just waltz

00:27:30.140 --> 00:27:30.720
 up to god

00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:31.360
 you need

00:27:31.360 --> 00:27:31.800
 someone to

00:27:31.800 --> 00:27:32.480
 represent you

00:27:32.480 --> 00:27:33.099
 but that

00:27:33.099 --> 00:27:33.620
 person is

00:27:33.620 --> 00:27:34.059
 christ

00:27:34.059 --> 00:27:36.880
 he is our

00:27:36.880 --> 00:27:37.480
 high priest

00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:39.160
 and he is

00:27:39.160 --> 00:27:40.680
 sitting at

00:27:40.680 --> 00:27:41.059
 the right

00:27:41.059 --> 00:27:41.519
 hand of the

00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:42.140
 father you

00:27:42.140 --> 00:27:42.579
 can't get

00:27:42.579 --> 00:27:43.180
 any closer

00:27:43.180 --> 00:27:46.220
 by faith

00:27:46.220 --> 00:27:46.740
 in him

00:27:46.740 --> 00:27:48.440
 you have

00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:49.059
 access

00:27:49.059 --> 00:27:50.160
 direct access

00:27:50.160 --> 00:27:52.099
 to god

00:27:52.099 --> 00:27:52.579
 the father

00:27:52.579 --> 00:27:56.419
 and all

00:27:56.419 --> 00:27:57.500
 this is

00:27:57.500 --> 00:27:58.099
 offered to

00:27:58.099 --> 00:27:58.819
 us only

00:27:58.819 --> 00:27:59.599
 because

00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:01.519
 god wants

00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:01.839
 to have

00:28:01.839 --> 00:28:02.159
 fellowship

00:28:02.159 --> 00:28:02.639
 with us

00:28:02.639 --> 00:28:03.619
 it's his

00:28:03.619 --> 00:28:03.980
 idea

00:28:03.980 --> 00:28:04.819
 we we

00:28:04.819 --> 00:28:05.079
 aren't

00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:05.419
 searching

00:28:05.419 --> 00:28:05.839
 for it

00:28:05.839 --> 00:28:06.220
 we haven't

00:28:06.220 --> 00:28:06.779
 been asking

00:28:06.779 --> 00:28:07.279
 for it

00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:07.720
 we don't

00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:08.240
 even want

00:28:08.240 --> 00:28:08.460
 it

00:28:08.460 --> 00:28:10.039
 he took

00:28:10.039 --> 00:28:10.659
 the initiative

00:28:10.659 --> 00:28:12.919
 he promised

00:28:12.919 --> 00:28:13.399
 a day

00:28:13.399 --> 00:28:14.139
 would come

00:28:14.139 --> 00:28:14.460
 when he

00:28:14.460 --> 00:28:15.159
 would fully

00:28:15.159 --> 00:28:16.099
 and finally

00:28:16.099 --> 00:28:16.740
 forgive

00:28:16.740 --> 00:28:18.099
 so that

00:28:18.099 --> 00:28:18.639
 relationship

00:28:18.639 --> 00:28:19.039
 can be

00:28:19.039 --> 00:28:19.539
 restored

00:28:19.539 --> 00:28:21.940
 verse 10

00:28:21.940 --> 00:28:23.000
 says that

00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:23.799
 christ came

00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:24.420
 and by

00:28:24.420 --> 00:28:25.099
 that will

00:28:25.099 --> 00:28:26.059
 the father's

00:28:26.059 --> 00:28:26.799
 will to

00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:27.240
 save

00:28:27.240 --> 00:28:29.319
 we have

00:28:29.319 --> 00:28:30.519
 been sanctified

00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:30.879
 we have

00:28:30.879 --> 00:28:31.440
 been made

00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:32.039
 clean

00:28:32.039 --> 00:28:32.500
 we have

00:28:32.500 --> 00:28:33.000
 been made

00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:33.559
 holy

00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:34.500
 through the

00:28:34.500 --> 00:28:35.039
 offering

00:28:35.039 --> 00:28:36.299
 of the

00:28:36.299 --> 00:28:36.659
 body

00:28:36.659 --> 00:28:38.200
 of jesus

00:28:38.200 --> 00:28:38.599
 christ

00:28:38.599 --> 00:28:39.099
 once for

00:28:39.099 --> 00:28:39.319
 all

00:28:39.319 --> 00:28:44.980
 that

00:28:44.980 --> 00:28:45.500
 promised

00:28:45.500 --> 00:28:45.819
 day

00:28:45.819 --> 00:28:46.000
 of

00:28:46.000 --> 00:28:46.359
 cleansing

00:28:46.359 --> 00:28:47.819
 is

00:28:47.819 --> 00:28:48.259
 today

00:28:48.259 --> 00:28:53.279
 if you

00:28:53.279 --> 00:28:54.159
 rely on

00:28:54.159 --> 00:28:54.799
 christ

00:28:54.799 --> 00:28:55.259
 as your

00:28:55.259 --> 00:28:56.119
 scapegoat

00:28:56.119 --> 00:28:56.539
 as your

00:28:56.539 --> 00:28:56.960
 sin

00:28:56.960 --> 00:28:57.419
 offering

00:28:57.419 --> 00:29:00.879
 and the

00:29:00.879 --> 00:29:01.779
 lord says

00:29:01.779 --> 00:29:02.359
 to you

00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:03.179
 i will

00:29:03.179 --> 00:29:03.779
 remember

00:29:03.779 --> 00:29:04.759
 their sins

00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:05.179
 and their

00:29:05.179 --> 00:29:05.659
 lawless

00:29:05.659 --> 00:29:06.099
 deeds

00:29:06.099 --> 00:29:07.359
 no more

00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:09.479
 how good

00:29:09.479 --> 00:29:09.899
 is that

00:29:09.899 --> 00:29:15.979
 so a

00:29:15.979 --> 00:29:16.339
 man

00:29:16.339 --> 00:29:17.479
 named

00:29:17.479 --> 00:29:17.879
 charles

00:29:17.879 --> 00:29:18.319
 simeon

00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:18.679
 was

00:29:18.679 --> 00:29:19.199
 converted

00:29:19.199 --> 00:29:19.799
 by reading

00:29:19.799 --> 00:29:20.359
 the story

00:29:20.359 --> 00:29:20.679
 of the

00:29:20.679 --> 00:29:20.979
 day of

00:29:20.979 --> 00:29:21.439
 atonement

00:29:21.439 --> 00:29:23.479
 because

00:29:23.479 --> 00:29:23.799
 when he

00:29:23.799 --> 00:29:24.379
 read that

00:29:24.379 --> 00:29:25.579
 when the

00:29:25.579 --> 00:29:25.879
 priest

00:29:25.879 --> 00:29:26.479
 confessed

00:29:26.479 --> 00:29:27.199
 the sin

00:29:27.199 --> 00:29:28.059
 while

00:29:28.059 --> 00:29:29.159
 having his

00:29:29.159 --> 00:29:29.679
 hand on

00:29:29.679 --> 00:29:30.199
 the head

00:29:30.199 --> 00:29:30.799
 of the

00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:31.099
 bull

00:29:31.099 --> 00:29:31.459
 and the
