00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.400
 Yeah, so this morning we are back in our series of Matthew chapter 22.

00:00:06.360 --> 00:00:09.019
! We are in verses 1-14 this morning.

00:00:10.980 --> 00:00:14.019
 And I just want to say it is a joy to be able to do this.

00:00:14.019 --> 00:00:15.179
 To get up here.

00:00:16.460 --> 00:00:18.760
 To bring the word of God to you guys.

00:00:19.500 --> 00:00:20.839
 To worship with you.

00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:22.240
 To worship our Lord together.

00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:26.879
 To look out and to see relationships that I've built.

00:00:27.019 --> 00:00:28.420
 To hear my son scream.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.179
 I will be hearing much of that.

00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:37.780
 It is a joy and a privilege to bring the word of God to you guys today.

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:43.960
 So we are in the last of a set of three parables.

00:00:44.060 --> 00:00:48.219
 A set of three parables that we've been going over in Matthew so far.

00:00:48.379 --> 00:00:53.240
 While Jesus enters the temple and is giving these three sets of parables.

00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:58.039
 We are seeing that they are directed against religious leaders of Israel.

00:00:58.039 --> 00:01:04.420
 And if you remember all the way back to the parable of two sons in chapter 21 verse 28.

00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:11.920
 One of the main points drawn from that parable was Jesus exposing hypocrisy of their love for God.

00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:16.939
 They pretended like they loved God.

00:01:16.939 --> 00:01:18.799
 But they didn't live like it.

00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:25.500
 And Jesus explicitly in that parable condemned them for their lack of response to John the Baptist ministry.

00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:29.980
 What was the central message of John the Baptist ministry?

00:01:29.980 --> 00:01:32.859
 If you recall the beginning of Matthew.

00:01:33.500 --> 00:01:37.280
 Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

00:01:38.800 --> 00:01:46.379
 And basically Jesus said, well, you Israel, the leaders of Israel, you acted like you had honor and time for John.

00:01:46.379 --> 00:01:49.439
 But you didn't listen to his message.

00:01:50.299 --> 00:01:51.939
 You are hypocritical.

00:01:52.759 --> 00:01:54.039
 You didn't repent.

00:01:54.819 --> 00:02:02.859
 And then in the parable of the landowner, Jesus explicitly deals with the religious leaders of Israel's rejection of Jesus' own ministry.

00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:06.140
 And now that brings us back.

00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.199
 That brings us to our passage today.

00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:17.560
 So I would invite you this morning, if you would stand with me, in honor of reading of God's word.

00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:22.439
 Matthew chapter 22, verses 1 through 14.

00:02:22.519 --> 00:02:23.019
 Oh, I forgot.

00:02:23.139 --> 00:02:24.759
 Does anybody in here not have a Bible?

00:02:25.219 --> 00:02:26.419
 Would you like to have a Bible?

00:02:27.079 --> 00:02:28.019
 Raise your hand, please.

00:02:28.060 --> 00:02:29.579
 We would be glad to get you a Bible.

00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:33.000
 Okay.

00:02:34.379 --> 00:02:36.959
 Matthew 22, verses 1 through 14 says,

00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:40.320
 And again, Jesus spoke to them in the parable saying,

00:02:41.480 --> 00:02:46.540
 The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son

00:02:46.540 --> 00:02:51.219
 and sent his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast,

00:02:51.819 --> 00:02:53.240
 but they would not come.

00:02:54.060 --> 00:02:56.780
 And again, he sent out other servants saying,

00:02:57.240 --> 00:02:58.379
 Tell those who are invited,

00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.020
 See, I have prepared my dinner.

00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:04.960
 My oxen and my fat calves have been slaughtered.

00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:07.500
 And everything is ready.

00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:10.159
 Come to the wedding feast.

00:03:11.100 --> 00:03:14.000
 But they paid no attention and went off,

00:03:14.860 --> 00:03:17.280
 one to his farm, another to his business,

00:03:17.620 --> 00:03:19.400
 while the rest seized his servants,

00:03:19.780 --> 00:03:21.900
 treated them shamefully, and killed them.

00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:24.620
 The king was angry,

00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:28.680
 and he sent his troops and destroyed those murderers

00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:30.080
 and burned their city.

00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:32.719
 Then he said to his servants,

00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:34.160
 The wedding feast is ready,

00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:37.600
 but those invited were not worthy.

00:03:38.640 --> 00:03:41.020
 Go, therefore, to the main roads

00:03:41.020 --> 00:03:44.460
 and invite to the wedding feast as many as you find.

00:03:45.320 --> 00:03:47.120
 And those servants went out into the roads

00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:49.439
 and gathered all whom they found,

00:03:50.040 --> 00:03:51.560
 both bad and good.

00:03:52.160 --> 00:03:54.560
 So the wedding hall was filled with guests.

00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:58.539
 But when the king came in to look at the guest,

00:03:58.740 --> 00:04:02.319
 he saw there a man who had no wedding garment.

00:04:02.920 --> 00:04:04.099
 And he said to him,

00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:08.819
 Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?

00:04:09.640 --> 00:04:11.060
 And he was speechless.

00:04:12.020 --> 00:04:13.759
 Then the king said to the attendants,

00:04:14.199 --> 00:04:15.900
 Bind him hand and foot

00:04:15.900 --> 00:04:18.680
 and cast him into outer darkness.

00:04:19.340 --> 00:04:23.019
 In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

00:04:23.019 --> 00:04:25.519
 For many are called,

00:04:26.139 --> 00:04:27.519
 but few are chosen.

00:04:29.180 --> 00:04:32.019
 May God add a blessing to the reading of his word.

00:04:32.579 --> 00:04:33.620
 Please, guys, be seated.

00:04:33.859 --> 00:04:36.639
 And I will then ask now for God's help.

00:04:42.180 --> 00:04:44.459
 God, we come before you, Father,

00:04:44.620 --> 00:04:46.339
 and we ask, O Lord,

00:04:46.419 --> 00:04:49.259
 that you would open the eyes of our hearts and minds

00:04:49.259 --> 00:04:50.799
 to once again this morning

00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:52.460
 to see your glory,

00:04:52.960 --> 00:04:55.439
 to see your love,

00:04:56.759 --> 00:04:57.879
 to see your patience

00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:01.139
 and your kindness towards us.

00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:05.080
 And Father, that we would also, Father,

00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:08.319
 be reminded of the sobering reality

00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:10.040
 of the judgment to come, Lord,

00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:13.040
 for those who reject your message.

00:05:13.460 --> 00:05:15.620
 O Lord, draw us near.

00:05:16.740 --> 00:05:17.639
 Build us up.

00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:20.279
 Encourage us and draw us closer to your son, Jesus,

00:05:20.860 --> 00:05:22.180
 in whom all things are for.

00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:22.979
 We pray.

00:05:23.300 --> 00:05:23.579
 Amen.

00:05:27.699 --> 00:05:29.539
 This parable of the wedding feast

00:05:29.539 --> 00:05:32.240
 actually breaks up into three parts

00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:34.360
 quite nicely for our time this morning.

00:05:35.019 --> 00:05:37.459
 First, we see that the king sends out

00:05:37.459 --> 00:05:40.060
 a royal call to those invited.

00:05:41.379 --> 00:05:44.300
 And those invited reject the invitation

00:05:44.300 --> 00:05:45.780
 in verses 1 through 5.

00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:49.060
 Secondly, we see the king sends out

00:05:49.060 --> 00:05:51.439
 an invitation to all people

00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:53.079
 in verses 7 through 10.

00:05:54.020 --> 00:05:56.060
 Lastly, for the final section of the parable,

00:05:56.180 --> 00:05:58.360
 we'll see that the king's just response

00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:00.840
 when a man in his own neglect

00:06:00.840 --> 00:06:03.240
 shows up without the right attire

00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:04.840
 in verses 11 through 14.

00:06:05.960 --> 00:06:07.879
 So it's a pretty straightforward passage

00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:08.620
 of what we have.

00:06:08.840 --> 00:06:10.860
 Not a super complicated text

00:06:10.860 --> 00:06:11.840
 before us this morning.

00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:18.060
 But don't pass over this parable quickly.

00:06:18.179 --> 00:06:20.739
 Don't pass over any word of God too quickly.

00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:24.659
 This text should be a startling

00:06:24.659 --> 00:06:28.219
 and shocking, sobering text.

00:06:28.220 --> 00:06:31.360
 And at the same time,

00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:34.340
 it should be a joyous text for us.

00:06:37.540 --> 00:06:40.220
 Jesus is bringing the shock factor

00:06:40.220 --> 00:06:42.800
 to help his audience see the reality

00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:44.800
 of what happens when we reject

00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.000
 his gospel offer.

00:06:47.140 --> 00:06:49.840
 God has spread his feast for us

00:06:49.840 --> 00:06:52.220
 in his gospel through his son.

00:06:52.220 --> 00:06:58.040
 It has cost the very life of his own son.

00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:02.380
 And he most graciously invites all to come.

00:07:03.380 --> 00:07:06.060
 He makes it clear here

00:07:06.060 --> 00:07:07.880
 that there are only two options.

00:07:09.260 --> 00:07:10.740
 Feast or judgment.

00:07:10.740 --> 00:07:13.840
 So if we want to feast,

00:07:14.220 --> 00:07:17.740
 we must go, repent, believe, obey.

00:07:18.699 --> 00:07:21.040
 When we reject the call to the gospel,

00:07:21.340 --> 00:07:23.639
 it's rebellion against God Almighty.

00:07:23.819 --> 00:07:25.000
 And we deserve judgment.

00:07:25.900 --> 00:07:27.400
 So what I want to invite you

00:07:27.400 --> 00:07:28.439
 to come away with today

00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:31.540
 is that our need is to come

00:07:31.540 --> 00:07:35.480
 and receive the righteous robe of Christ

00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:39.420
 so that you can feast in the goodness

00:07:39.420 --> 00:07:41.220
 and the good of his gospel.

00:07:43.460 --> 00:07:46.280
 So that brings us to point number one this morning.

00:07:46.420 --> 00:07:48.680
 Look with me then at verses one through four.

00:07:51.180 --> 00:07:54.280
 And again, Jesus spoke to them in parables

00:07:54.280 --> 00:07:56.800
 saying the kingdom of heaven

00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:58.460
 may be compared to a king

00:07:58.460 --> 00:08:00.300
 who gave a wedding feast for a son

00:08:00.300 --> 00:08:02.939
 and sent his servants to call those

00:08:02.939 --> 00:08:04.439
 who were invited to the wedding feast,

00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:05.839
 but they would not come.

00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:11.199
 The king has prepared a wedding feast,

00:08:11.500 --> 00:08:14.740
 but this is no ordinary wedding feast.

00:08:15.939 --> 00:08:17.740
 Not an ordinary wedding feast

00:08:17.740 --> 00:08:19.620
 in what we might even think of today

00:08:19.620 --> 00:08:21.040
 in our time, in our culture.

00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:22.980
 Wedding feasts often in Jewish culture

00:08:22.980 --> 00:08:24.459
 lasted up to one week.

00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:28.360
 And this also on top of that

00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:30.459
 is a royal feast

00:08:30.459 --> 00:08:33.820
 celebrating the wedding of God's son,

00:08:33.820 --> 00:08:35.120
 the king's son,

00:08:35.260 --> 00:08:36.520
 the crown prince,

00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:38.660
 the heir to the throne.

00:08:39.800 --> 00:08:40.560
 This wedding feast

00:08:40.560 --> 00:08:41.820
 is what all of history

00:08:41.820 --> 00:08:44.120
 has been making its way towards,

00:08:44.379 --> 00:08:46.680
 the telos of all things.

00:08:47.800 --> 00:08:48.980
 And this, my friends,

00:08:49.100 --> 00:08:50.300
 is the feast

00:08:50.300 --> 00:08:53.040
 to end all feasts.

00:08:54.700 --> 00:08:55.360
 As you know,

00:08:55.560 --> 00:08:57.480
 a wedding feast is not a feast,

00:08:57.480 --> 00:09:01.800
 is not a celebration without guests either,

00:09:02.300 --> 00:09:04.779
 without those you have chosen to invite,

00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:06.659
 those you hold dear,

00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:08.060
 those who you love.

00:09:11.019 --> 00:09:14.659
 The king wanted this select group of people

00:09:14.659 --> 00:09:15.759
 to be present,

00:09:15.980 --> 00:09:16.840
 to be there.

00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:19.780
 So he sends his servants

00:09:19.780 --> 00:09:22.180
 to call this select group,

00:09:22.300 --> 00:09:22.560
 Israel,

00:09:22.740 --> 00:09:24.000
 God's chosen people,

00:09:24.180 --> 00:09:25.040
 and he says,

00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:25.620
 hey friends,

00:09:25.920 --> 00:09:26.840
 it's time.

00:09:27.560 --> 00:09:28.200
 It's time.

00:09:29.139 --> 00:09:30.139
 And they should know this,

00:09:30.180 --> 00:09:30.860
 and they should be ready.

00:09:31.220 --> 00:09:31.820
 It's time.

00:09:32.060 --> 00:09:32.780
 It has come.

00:09:32.860 --> 00:09:33.720
 The time has come

00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:35.540
 to celebrate my son.

00:09:35.539 --> 00:09:39.360
 But this invitation

00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:42.599
 is not your simple little RSVP

00:09:42.599 --> 00:09:44.719
 or like apps that we have now

00:09:44.719 --> 00:09:45.679
 that send out a text

00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:46.199
 and a reminder

00:09:46.199 --> 00:09:48.360
 to sign up with fun little emojis on them.

00:09:49.679 --> 00:09:50.980
 This invitation though,

00:09:51.139 --> 00:09:52.059
 it's a call.

00:09:52.860 --> 00:09:54.059
 It is a call

00:09:54.059 --> 00:09:55.899
 and a summons from the king.

00:09:56.659 --> 00:09:58.659
 So when a king sends out his messengers

00:09:58.659 --> 00:09:58.639
!

00:09:59.179 --> 00:10:01.059
 And he calls you to come

00:10:01.059 --> 00:10:01.779
 to his kingdom,

00:10:02.779 --> 00:10:04.159
 to his palace,

00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:05.939
 into his presence,

00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:07.399
 you come.

00:10:10.659 --> 00:10:11.939
 In the epic trilogy,

00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:13.259
 Lord of the Rings,

00:10:13.860 --> 00:10:14.679
 there was a king.

00:10:15.019 --> 00:10:15.959
 Why are you guys laughing?

00:10:16.079 --> 00:10:17.279
 It is an epic trilogy.

00:10:17.699 --> 00:10:18.799
 Go check it out.

00:10:18.959 --> 00:10:19.299
 Seriously.

00:10:20.819 --> 00:10:21.879
 There was a king,

00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:22.879
 King Islador.

00:10:24.500 --> 00:10:26.240
 King Islador forged an oath

00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:27.199
 between his kingdom

00:10:27.199 --> 00:10:29.399
 and the men of the White Mountains

00:10:29.399 --> 00:10:31.759
 to fight within one another

00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:32.839
 when called upon.

00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:34.740
 And a time came though

00:10:34.740 --> 00:10:35.740
 when King Islador

00:10:35.740 --> 00:10:37.580
 summoned these men

00:10:37.580 --> 00:10:39.300
 to fight with him

00:10:39.300 --> 00:10:41.800
 against the rising dark power of Sauron.

00:10:42.899 --> 00:10:44.820
 But these men of the White Mountains

00:10:44.820 --> 00:10:47.160
 refused his summons.

00:10:48.460 --> 00:10:49.280
 So King Islador,

00:10:49.540 --> 00:10:50.379
 in his anger,

00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:51.980
 in his fury of them,

00:10:52.180 --> 00:10:52.980
 in their rebellion

00:10:52.980 --> 00:10:54.480
 against his summons,

00:10:55.300 --> 00:10:55.980
 cursed the men

00:10:55.980 --> 00:10:58.340
 as they fled into the mountains,

00:10:58.860 --> 00:11:01.740
 cursed as the sleepless dead indefinitely.

00:11:01.740 --> 00:11:05.659
 So when a king calls,

00:11:06.340 --> 00:11:06.940
 you come.

00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:09.360
 Yet,

00:11:10.019 --> 00:11:11.419
 in stark contrast

00:11:11.419 --> 00:11:12.820
 to any earthly

00:11:12.820 --> 00:11:14.879
 or storybook king,

00:11:15.379 --> 00:11:16.720
 what we have here today

00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:17.299
 in our text,

00:11:17.379 --> 00:11:18.860
 what we see in the scriptures,

00:11:19.220 --> 00:11:20.560
 the eternal king

00:11:20.560 --> 00:11:21.580
 of the cosmos

00:11:21.580 --> 00:11:22.799
 is not a king

00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:24.580
 who is quick

00:11:24.580 --> 00:11:26.340
 to curse us

00:11:26.340 --> 00:11:27.039
 for all eternity,

00:11:27.299 --> 00:11:28.259
 who is harsh.

00:11:28.259 --> 00:11:29.460
 Rather,

00:11:30.740 --> 00:11:31.159
 here today,

00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:33.340
 we see God's patient

00:11:33.340 --> 00:11:34.919
 and extravagant love.

00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:36.159
 My friends,

00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:37.340
 the Lord our God

00:11:37.340 --> 00:11:38.200
 is patient

00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:39.439
 and slow to anger,

00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:40.179
 abounding

00:11:40.179 --> 00:11:41.519
 in steadfast love.

00:11:41.779 --> 00:11:43.080
 How does he respond

00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:44.240
 when they do not come?

00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:47.799
 He sends out more servants.

00:11:47.799 --> 00:11:50.120
 This time,

00:11:50.199 --> 00:11:50.799
 he tells them

00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:51.979
 what's on the menu.

00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:54.599
 He tells them

00:11:54.599 --> 00:11:55.399
 what's on the menu,

00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:56.979
 trying to coax them

00:11:56.979 --> 00:11:57.559
 even more

00:11:57.559 --> 00:11:58.240
 to give them

00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.259
 another chance.

00:11:59.959 --> 00:12:00.259
 See,

00:12:00.379 --> 00:12:01.000
 I have prepared

00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:01.599
 my dinner,

00:12:01.779 --> 00:12:02.699
 my oxen,

00:12:03.539 --> 00:12:04.959
 my fat calves

00:12:04.959 --> 00:12:06.079
 have been slaughtered

00:12:06.079 --> 00:12:07.279
 and everything

00:12:07.279 --> 00:12:08.459
 is ready.

00:12:09.620 --> 00:12:10.120
 Come

00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:11.179
 to my wedding feast.

00:12:11.179 --> 00:12:13.899
 It's kind of like

00:12:13.899 --> 00:12:14.500
 when our church

00:12:14.500 --> 00:12:14.959
 announces

00:12:14.959 --> 00:12:15.479
 there's going

00:12:15.479 --> 00:12:16.299
 to be a potluck.

00:12:17.219 --> 00:12:17.639
 You know,

00:12:17.839 --> 00:12:18.379
 the spread

00:12:18.379 --> 00:12:18.859
 is going

00:12:18.859 --> 00:12:19.579
 to be good.

00:12:20.199 --> 00:12:20.500
 Boy,

00:12:20.620 --> 00:12:21.259
 it's good.

00:12:21.559 --> 00:12:22.179
 You look

00:12:22.179 --> 00:12:22.939
 at the spreadsheet

00:12:22.939 --> 00:12:23.759
 online

00:12:23.759 --> 00:12:24.719
 and you see

00:12:24.719 --> 00:12:25.339
 the menu

00:12:25.339 --> 00:12:26.719
 and you know

00:12:26.719 --> 00:12:27.019
 it's going

00:12:27.019 --> 00:12:27.719
 to be a feast

00:12:27.719 --> 00:12:29.379
 and you don't

00:12:29.379 --> 00:12:30.019
 want to miss out.

00:12:30.219 --> 00:12:30.699
 You don't want

00:12:30.699 --> 00:12:31.000
 to miss out

00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:31.620
 on our potlucks

00:12:31.620 --> 00:12:31.879
 here.

00:12:32.419 --> 00:12:33.439
 So just like that,

00:12:33.620 --> 00:12:34.239
 you are being

00:12:34.239 --> 00:12:35.679
 coaxed into our meetings.

00:12:35.819 --> 00:12:36.579
 It's another way

00:12:36.579 --> 00:12:37.259
 that we bring

00:12:37.259 --> 00:12:37.679
 you guys

00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:38.459
 into our meetings.

00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:39.839
 So God here

00:12:39.839 --> 00:12:40.839
 is giving us

00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:41.820
 the full spread.

00:12:43.920 --> 00:12:44.840
 He's revealing

00:12:44.840 --> 00:12:45.500
 and giving us

00:12:45.500 --> 00:12:46.300
 every chance.

00:12:48.700 --> 00:12:49.600
 Our God

00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:50.259
 is such

00:12:50.259 --> 00:12:50.980
 a kind

00:12:50.980 --> 00:12:51.940
 and loving God

00:12:51.940 --> 00:12:53.840
 that in

00:12:53.840 --> 00:12:54.759
 his forbearance

00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:55.759
 of our sin,

00:12:56.220 --> 00:12:56.879
 our rebellion,

00:12:57.000 --> 00:12:57.560
 he chooses

00:12:57.560 --> 00:12:58.740
 to share with us

00:12:58.740 --> 00:12:59.240
 the menu

00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:00.600
 of his glorious feast.

00:13:01.139 --> 00:13:01.780
 A feast

00:13:01.780 --> 00:13:04.340
 of all feasts

00:13:04.340 --> 00:13:05.460
 where he provides

00:13:05.460 --> 00:13:06.660
 everything for us.

00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:08.900
 All you have to do

00:13:08.900 --> 00:13:09.720
 is show up.

00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:12.259
 Leave your

00:13:12.259 --> 00:13:13.200
 Oreos at home.

00:13:13.780 --> 00:13:14.420
 Those aren't

00:13:14.420 --> 00:13:15.660
 needed at this feast

00:13:15.660 --> 00:13:17.000
 as grateful we are

00:13:17.000 --> 00:13:17.420
 for you guys

00:13:17.420 --> 00:13:18.259
 to bring the Oreos.

00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:22.100
 Just show up

00:13:22.100 --> 00:13:22.759
 and he will

00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:23.160
 give you

00:13:23.160 --> 00:13:24.220
 all things.

00:13:25.480 --> 00:13:26.780
 As 18th century

00:13:26.780 --> 00:13:27.600
 theologian

00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:28.100
 and pastor

00:13:28.100 --> 00:13:29.080
 Jonathan Edwards

00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:30.680
 so wonderfully

00:13:30.680 --> 00:13:31.360
 helps us

00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:31.940
 understand

00:13:31.940 --> 00:13:32.920
 even further

00:13:32.920 --> 00:13:33.660
 the significance

00:13:33.660 --> 00:13:34.440
 of this feast

00:13:34.440 --> 00:13:34.740
 here.

00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:36.860
 The creation

00:13:36.860 --> 00:13:38.019
 of the world

00:13:38.019 --> 00:13:38.860
 seems to have been

00:13:38.860 --> 00:13:39.980
 especially for this

00:13:39.980 --> 00:13:40.300
 end

00:13:40.300 --> 00:13:41.580
 that the eternal

00:13:41.580 --> 00:13:42.340
 son of God

00:13:42.340 --> 00:13:43.240
 might obtain

00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:44.180
 a spouse

00:13:44.180 --> 00:13:45.940
 toward whom

00:13:45.940 --> 00:13:46.820
 he might fully

00:13:46.820 --> 00:13:47.879
 exercise the

00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:49.200
 infinite benevolence

00:13:49.200 --> 00:13:50.379
 of his nature

00:13:50.379 --> 00:13:51.840
 and to whom

00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:52.320
 he might

00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:52.960
 as it were

00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:53.960
 open and pour

00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:55.159
 forth all

00:13:55.159 --> 00:13:55.740
 the immense

00:13:55.740 --> 00:13:56.320
 fountain of

00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:56.899
 condescension

00:13:56.899 --> 00:13:59.180
 love and grace

00:13:59.180 --> 00:14:00.139
 that was in

00:14:00.139 --> 00:14:00.680
 his heart

00:14:00.680 --> 00:14:01.919
 and that in

00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:02.519
 this way

00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:03.379
 God

00:14:03.379 --> 00:14:04.220
 might be

00:14:04.220 --> 00:14:04.920
 glorified.

00:14:04.919 --> 00:14:07.599
 sounds good

00:14:07.599 --> 00:14:07.919
 right?

00:14:08.399 --> 00:14:09.599
 Sounds great

00:14:09.599 --> 00:14:11.559
 but shockingly

00:14:11.559 --> 00:14:13.679
 none of those

00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:15.639
 whom the king

00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:16.219
 calls

00:14:16.219 --> 00:14:17.120
 shows up.

00:14:18.319 --> 00:14:18.939
 In fact

00:14:18.939 --> 00:14:20.259
 we see here

00:14:20.259 --> 00:14:20.939
 some even

00:14:20.939 --> 00:14:21.639
 respond

00:14:21.639 --> 00:14:22.699
 with anger

00:14:22.699 --> 00:14:23.519
 and hatred

00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:24.419
 in their hearts

00:14:24.419 --> 00:14:26.099
 terrorizing

00:14:26.099 --> 00:14:26.959
 and killing

00:14:26.959 --> 00:14:27.779
 his messengers

00:14:27.779 --> 00:14:31.360
 but they

00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:31.919
 paid no

00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:32.339
 attention

00:14:32.339 --> 00:14:33.159
 and went

00:14:33.159 --> 00:14:33.500
 off

00:14:33.500 --> 00:14:34.019
 one to

00:14:34.019 --> 00:14:34.639
 his farm

00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:35.720
 another to

00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:36.459
 his business

00:14:36.459 --> 00:14:37.659
 while the

00:14:37.659 --> 00:14:39.259
 rest seized

00:14:39.259 --> 00:14:39.899
 his servants

00:14:39.899 --> 00:14:41.240
 treated them

00:14:41.240 --> 00:14:41.860
 shamefully

00:14:41.860 --> 00:14:42.500
 and killed

00:14:42.500 --> 00:14:42.819
 them.

00:14:44.319 --> 00:14:44.679
 Jesus

00:14:44.679 --> 00:14:45.179
 here is now

00:14:45.179 --> 00:14:45.699
 starting to

00:14:45.699 --> 00:14:46.059
 point out

00:14:46.059 --> 00:14:47.039
 to the people

00:14:47.039 --> 00:14:47.419
 of Israel

00:14:47.419 --> 00:14:48.279
 their indifference

00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:48.779
 to God

00:14:48.779 --> 00:14:49.699
 their hypocritical

00:14:49.699 --> 00:14:50.059
 hearts

00:14:50.059 --> 00:14:50.480
 and their

00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:51.519
 unworthiness

00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:52.240
 their utter

00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:53.459
 unworthiness

00:14:53.459 --> 00:14:55.120
 to come

00:14:55.120 --> 00:14:56.139
 to be

00:14:56.139 --> 00:14:56.959
 a part of

00:14:56.960 --> 00:14:57.519
 the king's

00:14:57.519 --> 00:14:58.220
 invitation

00:14:58.220 --> 00:14:59.060
 but they

00:14:59.060 --> 00:14:59.680
 paid no

00:14:59.680 --> 00:15:00.240
 attention

00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:01.580
 going right

00:15:01.580 --> 00:15:02.280
 back to

00:15:02.280 --> 00:15:02.740
 their own

00:15:02.740 --> 00:15:03.200
 ways

00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:04.060
 what was

00:15:04.060 --> 00:15:04.759
 more important

00:15:04.759 --> 00:15:05.240
 to them

00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:06.940
 focusing on

00:15:06.940 --> 00:15:07.340
 work

00:15:07.340 --> 00:15:10.080
 going back

00:15:10.080 --> 00:15:10.379
 to their

00:15:10.379 --> 00:15:10.920
 homes

00:15:10.920 --> 00:15:12.060
 working on

00:15:12.060 --> 00:15:12.620
 their homes

00:15:12.620 --> 00:15:13.780
 their

00:15:13.780 --> 00:15:14.320
 businesses

00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:17.060
 revealing

00:15:17.060 --> 00:15:17.840
 the idols

00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:18.259
 of their

00:15:18.259 --> 00:15:18.639
 hearts

00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:20.379
 God's

00:15:20.379 --> 00:15:20.860
 chosen

00:15:20.860 --> 00:15:21.300
 people

00:15:21.300 --> 00:15:22.460
 are expected

00:15:22.460 --> 00:15:23.500
 to share

00:15:23.500 --> 00:15:23.960
 in this

00:15:23.960 --> 00:15:24.379
 feast

00:15:24.379 --> 00:15:25.279
 yet

00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:26.100
 in their

00:15:26.100 --> 00:15:26.419
 hardness

00:15:26.419 --> 00:15:26.919
 of hearts

00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:27.220
 they are

00:15:27.220 --> 00:15:27.559
 missing

00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:27.860
 it

00:15:27.860 --> 00:15:28.600
 they are

00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:29.220
 completely

00:15:29.220 --> 00:15:29.799
 missing

00:15:29.799 --> 00:15:30.120
 it

00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:31.039
 they are

00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:31.399
 turning

00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:31.840
 away

00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:32.320
 from it

00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:32.960
 they are

00:15:32.960 --> 00:15:33.360
 ignoring

00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:33.779
 it

00:15:33.779 --> 00:15:35.000
 they don't

00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:35.659
 believe

00:15:35.659 --> 00:15:36.120
 it

00:15:36.120 --> 00:15:39.120
 think back

00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:39.379
 to the

00:15:39.379 --> 00:15:39.879
 Old Testament

00:15:39.879 --> 00:15:40.299
 scriptures

00:15:40.299 --> 00:15:42.320
 and see

00:15:42.320 --> 00:15:42.740
 God's

00:15:42.740 --> 00:15:43.000
 great

00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:43.700
 patience

00:15:43.700 --> 00:15:44.279
 and loving

00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:44.799
 kindness

00:15:44.799 --> 00:15:46.080
 has already

00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:46.779
 done so

00:15:46.779 --> 00:15:47.320
 much for

00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:47.799
 his people

00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:48.740
 he is

00:15:48.740 --> 00:15:49.039
 sending

00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:49.779
 prophet

00:15:49.779 --> 00:15:50.779
 after prophet

00:15:50.779 --> 00:15:52.339
 to remind

00:15:52.339 --> 00:15:52.720
 them

00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:53.240
 he said

00:15:53.240 --> 00:15:53.720
 even since

00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:54.139
 John the

00:15:54.139 --> 00:15:54.459
 Baptist

00:15:54.459 --> 00:15:55.139
 prepared a

00:15:55.139 --> 00:15:55.579
 way for

00:15:55.579 --> 00:15:55.879
 Jesus

00:15:55.879 --> 00:15:56.559
 to remind

00:15:56.559 --> 00:15:56.860
 them

00:15:56.860 --> 00:15:57.539
 to call

00:15:57.539 --> 00:15:58.139
 them back

00:15:58.139 --> 00:15:58.919
 to himself

00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:00.100
 pointing to

00:16:00.100 --> 00:16:00.600
 the coming

00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:00.919
 of the

00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:01.339
 promised

00:16:01.339 --> 00:16:01.879
 Messiah

00:16:01.879 --> 00:16:03.120
 to free

00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:03.579
 them

00:16:03.579 --> 00:16:04.199
 from their

00:16:04.199 --> 00:16:04.699
 bondage

00:16:04.699 --> 00:16:05.299
 of sin

00:16:05.299 --> 00:16:05.919
 and shame

00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:11.299
 I'm

00:16:11.299 --> 00:16:11.500
 more

00:16:11.500 --> 00:16:11.919

00:16:18.900 --> 00:16:20.420
 people

00:16:20.420 --> 00:16:20.800
 that can

00:16:20.800 --> 00:16:20.960
 get

00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:21.680
 distracted

00:16:21.680 --> 00:16:22.300
 and caught

00:16:22.300 --> 00:16:22.520
 up

00:16:22.520 --> 00:16:23.060
 and live

00:16:23.060 --> 00:16:23.460
 in the

00:16:23.460 --> 00:16:23.840

00:16:33.180 --> 00:16:33.660
 again

00:16:33.660 --> 00:16:35.000
 being

00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:35.520

00:16:35.520 --> 00:16:36.220
 by Christians

00:16:36.220 --> 00:16:36.820
 being surrounded

00:16:36.820 --> 00:16:37.220
 by the

00:16:37.220 --> 00:16:37.660

00:16:39.580 --> 00:16:39.820

00:16:39.820 --> 00:16:40.080
 story

00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:40.280
 of

00:16:40.280 --> 00:16:41.440
 one of

00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:41.600
 my

00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:42.000
 friends

00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:43.879
 who

00:16:43.879 --> 00:16:44.100

00:16:44.100 --> 00:16:44.379
 in a

00:16:44.379 --> 00:16:44.759

00:16:45.700 --> 00:16:46.280
 years

00:16:46.279 --> 00:16:47.620
 he was

00:16:47.620 --> 00:16:47.879
 sharing

00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:48.360
 the gospel

00:16:48.360 --> 00:16:48.779
 with a

00:16:49.339 --> 00:16:49.659
 factory

00:16:49.659 --> 00:16:50.279
 and he

00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:50.439
 would

00:16:50.439 --> 00:16:51.000
 come in

00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:51.579
 and share

00:16:51.579 --> 00:16:52.659
 and the

00:16:52.659 --> 00:16:52.959

00:16:52.959 --> 00:16:53.299
 hear it

00:16:53.299 --> 00:16:53.919
 for years

00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:54.240
 upon

 my

00:16:57.439 --> 00:16:57.659
 friend

00:16:57.659 --> 00:16:57.799

 continue

00:16:58.079 --> 00:16:58.339
 to be

00:16:58.339 --> 00:16:58.639
 faithful

00:16:59.579 --> 00:17:00.159
 and he

00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:00.279
 would

00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:00.559
 share

00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:00.819
 even

00:17:00.819 --> 00:17:01.159
 just

00:17:01.159 --> 00:17:01.720
 how

00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:01.899
 the

00:17:01.899 --> 00:17:02.179
 Lord

00:17:02.179 --> 00:17:03.759
 spoke

00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:04.160
 to him

00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:04.399
 in his

00:17:04.399 --> 00:17:04.920
 devotions

00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:05.119
 that

00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:05.420
 morning

00:17:05.420 --> 00:17:05.720
 man

00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:05.839
 I

00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:05.980
 was

00:17:05.980 --> 00:17:06.220
 reading

00:17:06.220 --> 00:17:06.460
 in

 Job

00:17:06.859 --> 00:17:07.139
 this

00:17:07.139 --> 00:17:07.480
 morning

00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:08.139
 and

00:17:08.139 --> 00:17:08.359
 this

00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:08.680
 really

00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:09.200
 affected

00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:09.440
 me

00:17:09.440 --> 00:17:09.799
 man

00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:10.460
 God

00:17:10.460 --> 00:17:10.639
 is

00:17:10.639 --> 00:17:11.160
 incredible

00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:12.859
 and it

00:17:12.859 --> 00:17:12.980
 was

00:17:12.980 --> 00:17:13.500
 actually

00:17:13.500 --> 00:17:14.759
 in that

00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:15.019
 moment

00:17:15.019 --> 00:17:15.319
 of him

00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:15.720
 sharing

00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:16.019
 about

00:17:16.019 --> 00:17:16.519
 how God

00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:16.940
 spoke to

00:17:16.940 --> 00:17:17.039
 him

00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:17.259
 to

00:17:17.259 --> 00:17:17.639
 the

00:17:17.639 --> 00:17:18.059
 passages

00:17:18.059 --> 00:17:18.400
 of

00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:18.799
 Job

00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:20.440
 that

00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:20.639
 this

00:17:20.639 --> 00:17:20.920
 guy

00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:21.819
 realized

00:17:21.819 --> 00:17:23.680
 his

00:17:23.680 --> 00:17:24.000
 need

00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:24.200
 for

00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:24.700
 Jesus

00:17:24.700 --> 00:17:26.339
 and saw

00:17:26.339 --> 00:17:26.920
 the glory

00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:27.779
 of Jesus

00:17:27.779 --> 00:17:29.119
 and repented

00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:29.619
 and came

00:17:29.619 --> 00:17:30.160
 to faith

00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:31.500
 God

00:17:31.500 --> 00:17:31.700
 it

00:17:31.700 --> 00:17:31.700


00:17:31.700 --> 00:17:31.820
 was

00:17:35.560 --> 00:17:35.920
 just been

 reject

00:19:55.779 --> 00:19:56.359
 his

00:19:56.359 --> 00:19:56.920
 invitation

00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:00.119
 but not

00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:00.359
 just

00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:00.859
 reject

00:20:00.859 --> 00:20:01.180
 him

00:20:01.180 --> 00:20:02.319
 but we

00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:02.500
 would

00:20:02.500 --> 00:20:02.839
 spit

00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:03.000
 in

00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:03.200
 his

00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:03.720
 face

00:20:03.720 --> 00:20:04.680
 and we

00:20:04.680 --> 00:20:04.859
 would

00:20:04.859 --> 00:20:05.240
 mock

00:20:05.240 --> 00:20:05.579
 him

00:20:05.579 --> 00:20:06.299
 and

00:20:06.299 --> 00:20:06.579
 jeer

00:20:06.579 --> 00:20:06.720
 at

00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:06.919
 him

00:20:06.919 --> 00:20:09.819
 you

00:20:09.819 --> 00:20:09.879
 know

00:20:09.879 --> 00:20:09.960
 what

00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:10.079
 his

00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:10.460
 response

00:20:10.460 --> 00:20:10.799
 was

00:20:10.799 --> 00:20:12.039
 he

00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:12.480
 responded

00:20:12.480 --> 00:20:12.740
 that

00:20:12.740 --> 00:20:12.939
 that

00:20:12.939 --> 00:20:13.439
 person

00:20:13.439 --> 00:20:14.079
 should

00:20:14.079 --> 00:20:14.220
 be

00:20:14.220 --> 00:20:14.720
 imprisoned

00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:15.019
 at

00:20:15.019 --> 00:20:15.379
 least

00:20:15.379 --> 00:20:16.859
 but I

00:20:16.859 --> 00:20:16.980
 think

00:20:16.980 --> 00:20:17.079
 he

00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:17.199
 should

00:20:17.199 --> 00:20:17.379
 be

00:20:17.379 --> 00:20:17.799
 killed

00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:19.720
 and I

00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:19.879
 looked

00:20:19.879 --> 00:20:20.099
 at my

00:20:20.099 --> 00:20:20.319
 friend

00:20:20.319 --> 00:20:20.599
 and I

00:20:20.599 --> 00:20:20.899
 said

00:20:20.899 --> 00:20:22.839
 so if

00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:23.000
 we

00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:23.240
 spit

00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:23.539
 in the

00:20:23.539 --> 00:20:23.799
 face

00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:23.980
 of

00:20:23.980 --> 00:20:24.319
 God

00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:25.819
 the

00:20:25.819 --> 00:20:26.419
 king

00:20:26.419 --> 00:20:26.740
 of

00:20:26.740 --> 00:20:26.939
 the

00:20:26.939 --> 00:20:27.460
 cosmos

00:20:27.460 --> 00:20:28.679
 by

00:20:28.679 --> 00:20:29.240
 rejecting

00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:29.599
 his

00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:30.079
 invitation

00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:30.359
 for

00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:30.819
 salvation

00:20:30.819 --> 00:20:31.119
 through

00:20:31.119 --> 00:20:31.500
 Jesus

00:20:31.500 --> 00:20:32.299
 what

00:20:32.299 --> 00:20:32.579
 do

00:20:32.579 --> 00:20:32.859
 we

00:20:32.859 --> 00:20:33.419
 deserve

00:20:33.419 --> 00:20:35.019
 he

00:20:35.019 --> 00:20:35.220
 was

00:20:35.220 --> 00:20:35.559
 silent

00:20:35.559 --> 00:20:36.659
 he

00:20:36.659 --> 00:20:36.839
 didn't

00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:37.000
 have

00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:37.099
 a

00:20:37.099 --> 00:20:37.619

00:20:37.619 --> 00:20:40.759
 this

00:20:40.759 --> 00:20:41.159
 should

00:20:41.159 --> 00:20:41.279
 be

00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:41.419
 a

00:20:41.419 --> 00:20:42.579
 sobering

00:20:42.579 --> 00:20:43.039

 judgment

00:20:44.299 --> 00:20:44.599
 is

 it

00:20:48.119 --> 00:20:48.240

00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:07.359
 to think

00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:07.619
 that

00:26:07.619 --> 00:26:08.119
 worship

00:26:08.119 --> 00:26:08.379
 just

00:26:08.379 --> 00:26:08.720
 means

00:26:08.720 --> 00:26:10.059
 worship

00:26:10.059 --> 00:26:10.480
 nights

00:26:10.480 --> 00:26:11.099
 singing

00:26:11.099 --> 00:26:11.619
 songs

00:26:11.619 --> 00:26:11.980
 and stuff

00:26:11.980 --> 00:26:12.299
 like that

00:26:12.299 --> 00:26:12.680
 so not

00:26:12.680 --> 00:26:12.940
 to be

00:26:12.940 --> 00:26:13.200
 accused

00:26:13.200 --> 00:26:13.420
 here

00:26:13.420 --> 00:26:13.759
 with

00:26:13.759 --> 00:26:13.960
 that

00:26:13.960 --> 00:26:14.180
 type

00:26:14.180 --> 00:26:14.299
 of

00:26:14.299 --> 00:26:14.500
 worship

00:26:14.500 --> 00:26:14.700
 but

00:26:14.700 --> 00:26:14.859
 the

00:26:14.859 --> 00:26:15.160
 worship

00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:15.359
 of

00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:15.500
 our

00:26:15.500 --> 00:26:15.839
 whole

00:26:15.839 --> 00:26:16.240
 being

00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:17.099
 of

00:26:17.099 --> 00:26:17.559
 people

00:26:17.559 --> 00:26:18.019
 coming

00:26:18.019 --> 00:26:18.259
 and

00:26:18.259 --> 00:26:18.460
 laying

00:26:18.460 --> 00:26:18.720
 down

00:26:18.720 --> 00:26:18.899
 their

00:26:18.899 --> 00:26:19.420
 lives

00:26:19.420 --> 00:26:19.759
 before

00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:20.160
 God

00:26:20.160 --> 00:26:22.460
 this

00:26:22.460 --> 00:26:22.839
 is

00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:23.019
 the

00:26:23.019 --> 00:26:23.500
 church's

00:26:23.500 --> 00:26:24.480
 primary

00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:25.240
 mission

00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:26.099
 motivation

00:26:26.099 --> 00:26:27.559
 the glory

00:26:27.559 --> 00:26:28.099
 of God

00:26:28.099 --> 00:26:28.819
 to bring

00:26:28.819 --> 00:26:29.420
 God

00:26:29.420 --> 00:26:30.039
 all

00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:30.599
 the glory

00:26:30.599 --> 00:26:31.339
 and honor

00:26:31.339 --> 00:26:31.899
 and praise

00:26:31.899 --> 00:26:32.700
 yes

00:26:32.700 --> 00:26:34.139
 people

00:26:34.139 --> 00:26:35.599
 will face

00:26:35.599 --> 00:26:36.460
 God's wrath

00:26:36.460 --> 00:26:36.899
 and eternal

00:26:36.899 --> 00:26:37.299
 judgment

00:26:37.299 --> 00:26:38.879
 without the

00:26:38.879 --> 00:26:39.220
 gospel

00:26:39.220 --> 00:26:40.639
 and yes

00:26:40.639 --> 00:26:41.920
 that should

00:26:41.920 --> 00:26:43.079
 grieve us

00:26:43.079 --> 00:26:45.839
 that is a

00:26:45.839 --> 00:26:46.500
 good thing

00:26:46.500 --> 00:26:47.220
 that aligns

00:26:47.220 --> 00:26:48.079
 with God's

00:26:48.079 --> 00:26:48.319
 heart

00:26:48.319 --> 00:26:49.159
 not wishing

00:26:49.159 --> 00:26:49.740
 that anyone

00:26:49.740 --> 00:26:50.480
 should perish

00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:51.659
 but that all

00:26:51.659 --> 00:26:52.180
 should reach

00:26:52.180 --> 00:26:52.859
 repentance

00:26:52.859 --> 00:26:55.899
 but missions

00:26:55.899 --> 00:26:58.579
 exist

00:26:58.579 --> 00:26:59.819
 so that

00:26:59.819 --> 00:27:00.319
 God

00:27:00.319 --> 00:27:00.939
 is at

00:27:00.939 --> 00:27:01.279
 the

00:27:01.279 --> 00:27:01.719
 center

00:27:01.719 --> 00:27:03.159
 that he

00:27:03.159 --> 00:27:03.699
 is made

00:27:03.699 --> 00:27:04.279
 famous

00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:05.399
 that he

00:27:05.399 --> 00:27:06.019
 is honored

00:27:06.019 --> 00:27:06.899
 that he

00:27:06.899 --> 00:27:07.539
 is delighted

00:27:07.539 --> 00:27:07.859
 in

00:27:07.859 --> 00:27:09.879
 often

00:27:09.879 --> 00:27:10.879
 we can

00:27:10.879 --> 00:27:12.019
 be easily

00:27:12.019 --> 00:27:12.559
 tempted

00:27:12.559 --> 00:27:14.439
 to a

00:27:14.439 --> 00:27:14.740
 more

00:27:14.740 --> 00:27:15.159
 man

00:27:15.159 --> 00:27:15.839
 centric

00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:16.659
 in our

00:27:16.659 --> 00:27:17.459
 mission

00:27:17.459 --> 00:27:19.139
 sometimes

00:27:19.139 --> 00:27:20.000
 doing it

00:27:20.000 --> 00:27:20.659
 without even

00:27:20.660 --> 00:27:21.180
 knowing it

00:27:21.180 --> 00:27:22.720
 we can

00:27:22.720 --> 00:27:23.100
 easily

00:27:23.100 --> 00:27:23.600
 focus

00:27:23.600 --> 00:27:24.060
 more

00:27:24.060 --> 00:27:24.500
 on the

00:27:24.500 --> 00:27:24.940
 suffering

00:27:24.940 --> 00:27:25.460
 of man

00:27:25.460 --> 00:27:27.440
 with even

00:27:27.440 --> 00:27:28.860
 simple

00:27:28.860 --> 00:27:29.680
 phrases like

00:27:29.680 --> 00:27:30.420
 millions

00:27:30.420 --> 00:27:30.920
 of people

00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:31.560
 are dying

00:27:31.560 --> 00:27:32.060
 daily

00:27:32.060 --> 00:27:32.540
 and going

00:27:32.540 --> 00:27:33.019
 to hell

00:27:33.019 --> 00:27:33.980
 so we

00:27:33.980 --> 00:27:34.320
 must

00:27:34.320 --> 00:27:34.920
 go

00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:35.560
 now

00:27:35.560 --> 00:27:38.279
 that can

00:27:38.279 --> 00:27:38.600
 come

00:27:38.600 --> 00:27:39.000
 from a

00:27:39.000 --> 00:27:39.420
 good

00:27:39.420 --> 00:27:40.320
 desire

00:27:40.320 --> 00:27:42.240
 but it

00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:42.440
 can

00:27:42.440 --> 00:27:43.100
 create

00:27:43.100 --> 00:27:43.320
 an

00:27:43.320 --> 00:27:44.160
 unhelpful

00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:44.800
 and

00:27:44.800 --> 00:27:45.480
 misguided

00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:46.320
 urgency

00:27:46.319 --> 00:27:48.799
 and it

00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:49.099
 may not

00:27:49.099 --> 00:27:49.500
 seem

00:27:49.500 --> 00:27:49.960
 concerning

00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:50.359
 at first

00:27:50.359 --> 00:27:50.759
 but when

00:27:50.759 --> 00:27:53.059
 alleviating

00:27:53.059 --> 00:27:53.700
 the suffering

00:27:53.700 --> 00:27:54.119
 of man

00:27:54.119 --> 00:27:54.500
 is not

00:27:54.500 --> 00:27:55.079
 kept

00:27:55.079 --> 00:27:55.960
 underneath

00:27:55.960 --> 00:27:57.039
 and tethered

00:27:57.039 --> 00:27:58.079
 to God's

00:27:58.079 --> 00:27:58.639
 glory

00:27:58.639 --> 00:28:00.039
 rather it

00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:00.679
 begins to

00:28:00.679 --> 00:28:01.279
 fill our

00:28:01.279 --> 00:28:01.619
 mission

00:28:01.619 --> 00:28:03.519
 the flight

00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:03.960
 of man

00:28:03.960 --> 00:28:04.619
 begins to

00:28:04.619 --> 00:28:05.240
 fill our

00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:05.559
 mission

00:28:05.559 --> 00:28:06.399
 in prayers

00:28:06.399 --> 00:28:06.779
 in the

00:28:06.779 --> 00:28:07.099
 beginning

00:28:07.099 --> 00:28:07.759
 you may

00:28:07.759 --> 00:28:08.139
 only

00:28:08.139 --> 00:28:09.039
 recognize

00:28:09.039 --> 00:28:09.379
 that you

00:28:09.379 --> 00:28:09.740
 are a

00:28:09.740 --> 00:28:10.059
 degree

00:28:10.059 --> 00:28:10.579
 off

00:28:10.579 --> 00:28:11.619
 but rather

00:28:11.619 --> 00:28:12.359
 as you

00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:12.839
 continue

00:28:12.839 --> 00:28:13.519
 unchecked

00:28:13.519 --> 00:28:14.119
 this degree

00:28:14.119 --> 00:28:14.599
 becomes

00:28:14.599 --> 00:28:15.119
 greatly

00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:15.539
 wired

00:28:15.539 --> 00:28:16.940
 and you

00:28:16.940 --> 00:28:17.759
 are several

00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:18.339
 degrees

00:28:18.339 --> 00:28:18.740
 off

00:28:18.740 --> 00:28:22.859
 God

00:28:22.859 --> 00:28:23.500
 is in

00:28:23.500 --> 00:28:23.779
 this

00:28:23.779 --> 00:28:24.139
 for the

00:28:24.139 --> 00:28:24.440
 glory

00:28:24.440 --> 00:28:24.859
 of his

00:28:24.859 --> 00:28:25.299
 name

00:28:25.299 --> 00:28:25.940
 and the

00:28:25.940 --> 00:28:26.159
 love

00:28:26.159 --> 00:28:26.460
 of his

00:28:26.460 --> 00:28:26.839
 people

00:28:26.839 --> 00:28:28.180
 there's

00:28:28.180 --> 00:28:28.539
 not a

00:28:28.539 --> 00:28:28.740
 false

00:28:28.740 --> 00:28:29.240
 dichotomy

00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:29.519
 here

00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:31.819
 so the

00:28:31.819 --> 00:28:32.339
 urgency

00:28:32.339 --> 00:28:33.220
 for our

00:28:33.220 --> 00:28:33.659
 mission

00:28:33.659 --> 00:28:34.639
 is real

00:28:34.639 --> 00:28:34.960
 guys

00:28:34.960 --> 00:28:35.299
 and we

00:28:35.299 --> 00:28:35.740
 must

00:28:35.740 --> 00:28:36.339
 go

00:28:36.339 --> 00:28:39.379
 but what's

00:28:39.379 --> 00:28:39.720
 comforting

00:28:39.720 --> 00:28:40.119
 here is

00:28:40.119 --> 00:28:40.359
 that we

00:28:40.359 --> 00:28:40.799
 do not

00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:41.200
 have to

00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:41.500
 worry

00:28:41.500 --> 00:28:42.000
 friends

00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:43.460
 we do

00:28:43.460 --> 00:28:44.059
 not worry

00:28:44.059 --> 00:28:44.420
 in our

00:28:44.420 --> 00:28:45.059
 evangelism

00:28:45.059 --> 00:28:45.619
 because

00:28:45.619 --> 00:28:46.139
 God

00:28:46.139 --> 00:28:46.519
 and his

00:28:46.519 --> 00:28:46.980
 eternal

00:28:46.980 --> 00:28:47.720
 glorious

00:28:47.720 --> 00:28:48.259
 love

00:28:48.259 --> 00:28:48.879
 for his

00:28:48.879 --> 00:28:49.240
 son

00:28:49.240 --> 00:28:49.819
 is

00:28:49.819 --> 00:28:50.460
 utterly

00:28:50.460 --> 00:28:51.879
 and

00:28:51.879 --> 00:28:52.859
 passionately

00:28:52.859 --> 00:28:53.819
 committed

00:28:53.819 --> 00:28:54.879
 to filling

00:28:54.879 --> 00:28:55.619
 the wedding

00:28:55.619 --> 00:28:56.220
 hall for

00:28:56.220 --> 00:28:56.579
 Jesus

00:28:56.579 --> 00:28:58.899
 so we

00:28:58.899 --> 00:28:59.279
 church

00:28:59.279 --> 00:29:00.019
 we can

00:29:00.019 --> 00:29:00.679
 go out

00:29:00.679 --> 00:29:01.119
 from this

00:29:01.119 --> 00:29:01.440
 place

00:29:01.440 --> 00:29:02.359
 with great

00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:02.740
 joy

00:29:02.740 --> 00:29:05.480
 those

00:29:05.480 --> 00:29:06.059
 enjoying

00:29:06.059 --> 00:29:06.679
 the feast

00:29:06.679 --> 00:29:06.980
 of the

00:29:06.980 --> 00:29:07.339
 gospel

00:29:07.339 --> 00:29:08.440
 and we

00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:08.919
 can have

00:29:08.919 --> 00:29:10.139
 great hope

00:29:10.139 --> 00:29:11.299
 calling all

00:29:11.299 --> 00:29:11.839
 peoples

00:29:11.839 --> 00:29:13.099
 rich

00:29:13.099 --> 00:29:13.759
 poor

00:29:13.759 --> 00:29:14.339
 black

00:29:14.339 --> 00:29:14.839
 white

00:29:14.839 --> 00:29:15.379
 asian

00:29:15.379 --> 00:29:15.819
 good

00:29:15.819 --> 00:29:16.359
 bad

00:29:16.359 --> 00:29:18.740
 to come

00:29:18.740 --> 00:29:20.639
 and enjoy

00:29:20.639 --> 00:29:21.980
 this glorious

00:29:21.980 --> 00:29:22.619
 feast in the

00:29:22.619 --> 00:29:22.959
 gospel

00:29:22.959 --> 00:29:25.299
 knowing that

00:29:25.299 --> 00:29:26.039
 God is

00:29:26.039 --> 00:29:26.639
 faithful

00:29:26.639 --> 00:29:27.859
 to fulfill

00:29:27.859 --> 00:29:28.699
 his promises

00:29:28.699 --> 00:29:30.419
 to fill

00:29:30.419 --> 00:29:30.819
 the wedding

00:29:30.819 --> 00:29:31.159
 hall

00:29:31.159 --> 00:29:32.579
 not because

00:29:32.579 --> 00:29:33.079
 we have it

00:29:33.079 --> 00:29:33.459
 together

00:29:33.459 --> 00:29:34.480
 not because

00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:35.039
 we are

00:29:35.039 --> 00:29:35.659
 intelligent

00:29:35.659 --> 00:29:37.579
 not because

00:29:37.579 --> 00:29:37.819
 we are

00:29:37.819 --> 00:29:38.399
 skilled

00:29:38.399 --> 00:29:42.879
 but because

00:29:42.879 --> 00:29:44.000
 he has

00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:44.759
 promised

00:29:44.759 --> 00:29:45.539
 to do

00:29:45.539 --> 00:29:45.819
 it

00:29:45.819 --> 00:29:47.759
 he is

00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:48.179
 fully

00:29:48.179 --> 00:29:48.659
 committed

00:29:48.659 --> 00:29:49.500
 to calling

00:29:49.500 --> 00:29:50.899
 saving

00:29:50.899 --> 00:29:52.039
 and securing

00:29:52.039 --> 00:29:52.539
 a people

00:29:52.539 --> 00:29:53.139
 for the

00:29:53.139 --> 00:29:53.819
 glory of

00:29:53.819 --> 00:29:54.439
 his son

00:29:54.439 --> 00:29:54.879
 Jesus

00:29:54.879 --> 00:29:56.659
 so friends

00:29:56.659 --> 00:29:57.359
 take heart

00:29:57.359 --> 00:29:57.699
 in your

00:29:57.699 --> 00:29:58.419
 evangelism

00:29:58.419 --> 00:30:00.779
 God is

00:30:00.779 --> 00:30:01.119
 committed

00:30:01.119 --> 00:30:01.500
 to it

00:30:01.500 --> 00:30:01.980
 with you

00:30:01.980 --> 00:30:06.720
 so as we

00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:07.200
 move here

00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:08.160
 from these

00:30:08.160 --> 00:30:08.640
 verses to

00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:09.120
 verses 11

00:30:09.120 --> 00:30:09.420
 14

00:30:09.420 --> 00:30:10.079
 we see

00:30:10.079 --> 00:30:10.500
 that this

00:30:10.500 --> 00:30:11.079
 wedding feast

00:30:11.079 --> 00:30:11.759
 isn't just

00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:12.299
 about being

00:30:12.299 --> 00:30:12.940
 willing to

00:30:12.940 --> 00:30:13.299
 go

00:30:13.299 --> 00:30:14.500
 it's also

00:30:14.500 --> 00:30:14.940
 about

00:30:14.940 --> 00:30:15.900
 receiving

00:30:15.900 --> 00:30:16.700
 it's about

00:30:16.700 --> 00:30:17.400
 repenting

00:30:17.400 --> 00:30:17.940
 believing

00:30:17.940 --> 00:30:18.620
 and obeying

00:30:18.620 --> 00:30:19.420
 which brings

00:30:19.420 --> 00:30:19.880
 us to our

00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:20.440
 last point

00:30:20.440 --> 00:30:20.720
 here

00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:21.640
 receive

00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:22.500
 Christ's

00:30:22.500 --> 00:30:22.940
 righteous

00:30:22.940 --> 00:30:23.500
 robe

00:30:23.500 --> 00:30:25.440
 but when

00:30:25.440 --> 00:30:25.799
 the king

00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:26.319
 came in

00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:26.680
 to look

00:30:26.680 --> 00:30:26.920
 at the

00:30:26.920 --> 00:30:27.180
 guest

00:30:27.180 --> 00:30:27.799
 he saw

00:30:27.799 --> 00:30:28.579
 there a

00:30:28.579 --> 00:30:28.880
 man

00:30:28.880 --> 00:30:29.500
 who had

00:30:29.500 --> 00:30:30.000
 no wedding

00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:30.319
 garment

00:30:30.319 --> 00:30:31.160
 he said

00:30:31.160 --> 00:30:31.420
 to him

00:30:31.420 --> 00:30:31.880
 friend

00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:32.720
 how did

00:30:32.720 --> 00:30:32.980
 you get

00:30:32.980 --> 00:30:33.260
 in here

00:30:33.260 --> 00:30:33.700
 without a

00:30:33.700 --> 00:30:33.860
 wedding

00:30:33.860 --> 00:30:34.160
 garment

00:30:34.160 --> 00:30:35.380
 and he

00:30:35.380 --> 00:30:36.000
 was speechless

00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:37.180
 then the

00:30:37.180 --> 00:30:37.580
 king said

00:30:37.580 --> 00:30:37.820
 to the

00:30:37.820 --> 00:30:38.300
 attendants

00:30:38.300 --> 00:30:39.140
 bind him

00:30:39.140 --> 00:30:39.660
 hand and

00:30:39.660 --> 00:30:39.900
 foot

00:30:39.900 --> 00:30:40.420
 and cast

00:30:40.420 --> 00:30:40.760
 him into

00:30:40.760 --> 00:30:41.060
 the outer

00:30:41.060 --> 00:30:41.480
 darkness

00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:42.400
 in that

00:30:42.400 --> 00:30:42.720
 place

00:30:42.720 --> 00:30:43.040
 there will

00:30:43.040 --> 00:30:43.180
 be

00:30:43.180 --> 00:30:43.680
 weeping

00:30:43.680 --> 00:30:44.340
 and gnashing

00:30:44.340 --> 00:30:44.900
 of teeth

00:30:44.900 --> 00:30:46.080
 for many

00:30:46.080 --> 00:30:46.880
 are called

00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:47.900
 but few

00:30:47.900 --> 00:30:48.460
 are chosen

00:30:48.460 --> 00:30:51.140
 this new

00:30:51.140 --> 00:30:52.080
 group of

00:30:52.080 --> 00:30:52.740
 guests here

00:30:52.740 --> 00:30:53.520
 who were

00:30:53.520 --> 00:30:54.100
 invited to

00:30:54.100 --> 00:30:54.420
 come to

00:30:54.420 --> 00:30:54.980
 the feast

00:30:54.980 --> 00:30:56.700
 were straight

00:30:56.700 --> 00:30:57.060
 off the

00:30:57.060 --> 00:30:57.480
 streets

00:30:57.480 --> 00:30:59.820
 so there

00:30:59.820 --> 00:31:00.180
 was no

00:31:00.180 --> 00:31:00.700
 time for

00:31:00.700 --> 00:31:00.900
 them to

00:31:00.900 --> 00:31:01.480
 return home

00:31:01.480 --> 00:31:02.779
 they came

00:31:02.779 --> 00:31:03.079
 as they

00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:03.519
 were

00:31:03.519 --> 00:31:04.799
 pouring

00:31:04.799 --> 00:31:05.700
 into the

00:31:05.700 --> 00:31:06.039
 palace

00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:06.299
 of the

00:31:06.299 --> 00:31:06.640
 king

00:31:06.640 --> 00:31:08.220
 they didn't

00:31:08.220 --> 00:31:09.579
 have time

00:31:09.579 --> 00:31:10.019
 to go

00:31:10.019 --> 00:31:10.519
 back home

00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:10.839
 to get

00:31:10.839 --> 00:31:11.460
 cleaned up

00:31:11.460 --> 00:31:12.400
 to take

00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:12.779
 off their

00:31:12.779 --> 00:31:13.539
 work clothes

00:31:13.539 --> 00:31:14.039
 and to

00:31:14.039 --> 00:31:14.640
 come back

00:31:14.640 --> 00:31:15.200
 to the

00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:15.579
 place

00:31:15.579 --> 00:31:16.200
 the palace

00:31:16.200 --> 00:31:17.480
 some of

00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:17.860
 them most

00:31:17.860 --> 00:31:18.299
 likely

00:31:18.299 --> 00:31:18.559
 wouldn't

00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:19.039
 have even

00:31:19.039 --> 00:31:20.240
 owned

00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:21.539
 or have

00:31:21.539 --> 00:31:21.779
 in their

00:31:21.779 --> 00:31:22.259
 possession

00:31:22.259 --> 00:31:23.420
 proper attire

00:31:23.420 --> 00:31:24.200
 for such

00:31:24.200 --> 00:31:24.700
 a wedding

00:31:24.700 --> 00:31:27.360
 it was

00:31:27.360 --> 00:31:27.700
 people

00:31:27.700 --> 00:31:28.440
 from all

00:31:28.440 --> 00:31:28.860
 sorts

00:31:28.860 --> 00:31:29.019
 of

00:31:29.019 --> 00:31:29.539
 backgrounds

00:31:29.539 --> 00:31:30.539
 and walks

00:31:30.539 --> 00:31:31.080
 of life

00:31:31.080 --> 00:31:31.900
 that were

00:31:31.900 --> 00:31:32.620
 filling in

00:31:32.620 --> 00:31:34.200
 putting on

00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:35.059
 these wedding

00:31:35.059 --> 00:31:35.420
 garments

00:31:35.420 --> 00:31:36.539
 these robes

00:31:36.539 --> 00:31:37.740
 provided for

00:31:37.740 --> 00:31:38.140
 the wedding

00:31:38.140 --> 00:31:40.220
 with eager

00:31:40.220 --> 00:31:40.759
 joy

00:31:40.759 --> 00:31:41.940
 to receive

00:31:41.940 --> 00:31:42.759
 and delight

00:31:42.759 --> 00:31:43.259
 in all the

00:31:43.259 --> 00:31:43.680
 good things

00:31:43.680 --> 00:31:44.299
 prepared for

00:31:44.299 --> 00:31:44.539
 them

00:31:44.539 --> 00:31:46.500
 but

00:31:46.500 --> 00:31:47.440
 we see

00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:47.740
 here

00:31:47.740 --> 00:31:48.380
 there is

00:31:48.380 --> 00:31:48.779
 one

00:31:48.779 --> 00:31:49.860
 who came

00:31:49.860 --> 00:31:50.420
 in among

00:31:50.420 --> 00:31:50.720
 them

00:31:50.720 --> 00:31:51.579
 who did

00:31:51.579 --> 00:31:52.200
 not put

00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:52.460
 on a

00:31:52.460 --> 00:31:52.740
 clean

00:31:52.740 --> 00:31:53.259
 new

00:31:53.259 --> 00:31:53.559
 wedding

00:31:53.559 --> 00:31:53.920
 garment

00:31:53.920 --> 00:31:56.019
 some

00:31:56.019 --> 00:31:56.420
 scholars

00:31:56.420 --> 00:31:57.000
 believe

00:31:57.000 --> 00:31:57.279
 that

00:31:57.279 --> 00:31:57.860
 it would

00:31:57.860 --> 00:31:58.120
 have been

00:31:58.120 --> 00:31:58.960
 customary

00:31:58.960 --> 00:31:59.319
 in the

00:31:59.319 --> 00:31:59.620
 ancient

00:31:59.620 --> 00:32:00.259
 near east

00:32:00.259 --> 00:32:00.779
 for the

00:32:00.779 --> 00:32:01.019
 king

00:32:01.019 --> 00:32:01.740
 to provide

00:32:01.740 --> 00:32:02.039
 these

00:32:02.039 --> 00:32:02.420
 garments

00:32:02.420 --> 00:32:04.160
 the proper

00:32:04.160 --> 00:32:04.519
 wedding

00:32:04.519 --> 00:32:04.960
 attire

00:32:04.960 --> 00:32:08.000
 so Jesus

00:32:08.000 --> 00:32:08.400
 here is

00:32:08.400 --> 00:32:08.880
 implying

00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:09.400
 that these

00:32:09.400 --> 00:32:09.700
 wedding

00:32:09.700 --> 00:32:10.140
 garments

00:32:10.140 --> 00:32:11.200
 are provided

00:32:11.200 --> 00:32:11.819
 by God

00:32:11.819 --> 00:32:12.380
 himself

00:32:12.380 --> 00:32:15.140
 so when

00:32:15.140 --> 00:32:15.579
 the king

00:32:15.579 --> 00:32:16.360
 walks in
