00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.919
 One of the blessings of going verse by verse through books of the Bible is it prevents you from skipping over hard things.

00:00:09.619 --> 00:00:17.399
 And here we are running into a section of Romans that starts in chapter 9 and goes through chapter 11.

00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:25.060
 And so, but I do want to say, try to look at this with fresh eyes today.

00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:30.660
 We'll be in Romans 9 with the next today and then three more Sundays.

00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.299
 But just join me in a quick word of prayer.

00:00:34.299 --> 00:00:39.519
 Lord, we're just grateful to come together around your word today.

00:00:39.799 --> 00:00:46.439
 And I pray that it would have your desired effect on our hearts and our lives.

00:00:47.179 --> 00:00:57.539
 And help me to remain submitted to your word, to remain humble, to put all things before you.

00:00:58.319 --> 00:01:01.500
 Just ask that you be honored in this time. In Christ's name, amen.

00:01:01.500 --> 00:01:11.640
 So we will, Nathan took us through Romans 8, arguably one of the greatest chapters that we find in the scripture.

00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:14.659
 In Romans 8, connect directly to Romans 9.

00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:18.000
 And we're going to just start with the first five verses today.

00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:23.400
 So let's just read together from God's inspired and inerrant word.

00:01:24.039 --> 00:01:25.939
 Romans 9, 1 through 5.

00:01:25.939 --> 00:01:55.920
 Paul says,

00:01:55.939 --> 00:02:24.819
 Back in the book of Romans, it's just a good reminder that we never graduate.

00:02:24.819 --> 00:02:26.699
 We never graduate from the gospel.

00:02:26.699 --> 00:02:35.340
 We never move on from the cross, but only a more profound understanding of the cross as we grow in our faith.

00:02:36.299 --> 00:02:42.639
 And if the gospel is true, then it must stand up against the hardest scrutiny.

00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:48.359
 We need it because we are banking our souls and trusting our souls to this message.

00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:54.500
 And arguably, the book of Romans gives us the fullest detailed at length explanation of the gospel.

00:02:54.500 --> 00:03:05.979
 And so, after reading these five verses, one of the things that I learned that has helped me in the past is when you preach on a particular passage of scripture,

00:03:06.379 --> 00:03:09.620
 preach the mood of that scripture.

00:03:09.620 --> 00:03:13.259
 If it's joyous, you should be joyous.

00:03:13.500 --> 00:03:19.300
 If it's sad and convicting, then that's how you ought to preach it.

00:03:19.300 --> 00:03:26.860
 And I just want to confess to you that I can't, without God's help, preach the mood of this text.

00:03:27.580 --> 00:03:32.020
 It is a very sorrowful lamentation.

00:03:32.020 --> 00:03:41.420
 And so, before we move on, I want you just to notice that why does Romans 9, 1 through 5,

00:03:41.460 --> 00:03:50.420
 it comes following Romans 8, which is one of the greatest explanations of our future glory in Christ.

00:03:50.540 --> 00:03:54.280
 That nothing can separate us from the love of Christ.

00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:58.160
 A promise to save us, to glorify us with Christ.

00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:05.919
 Romans 8 gives us great assurance, great hope, and great confidence of our eternal salvation.

00:04:07.079 --> 00:04:11.759
 There's just a tremendous mountaintop that we reach in Romans 8.

00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:15.159
 And when we get to the summit, we stop there.

00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:20.079
 And there's just something that just blows my mind here.

00:04:20.540 --> 00:04:27.540
 After Paul reaches the heights of Romans 8, reaches the summit of that mountain,

00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:32.960
 he immediately thinks about those who aren't there with him.

00:04:33.780 --> 00:04:39.560
 He thinks about those who are still lost in the valley, living in darkness.

00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:47.020
 When it comes to his Jewish kinsmen, when it comes to his family, the people that he knows, the nation of Israel.

00:04:48.300 --> 00:04:51.620
 And so, this kind of poses a problem.

00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:53.300
 This is why this matters, okay?

00:04:53.300 --> 00:04:58.319
 We're asking the question in the next three chapters.

00:04:59.379 --> 00:05:02.860
 Has God's promises to the nation of Israel failed?

00:05:03.300 --> 00:05:05.340
 Have they fallen short?

00:05:05.939 --> 00:05:07.139
 Gone unfulfilled?

00:05:07.699 --> 00:05:13.819
 Because by and large, the nation at this time had rejected Jesus as the Messiah.

00:05:14.660 --> 00:05:18.840
 So have those promises failed to Israel?

00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:26.879
 And if that's true, if they have failed, then how can we be sure that God will keep his word to us?

00:05:27.539 --> 00:05:28.500
 See the problem there?

00:05:28.699 --> 00:05:33.000
 Like, that's the question that Paul is going to tackle in the next three chapters.

00:05:33.699 --> 00:05:37.339
 How can we trust the promises that he has made to us in Christ,

00:05:37.459 --> 00:05:41.699
 if the promises he's made to the Jewish people have gone unfulfilled?

00:05:42.379 --> 00:05:43.699
 That's why it matters.

00:05:43.699 --> 00:05:50.620
 And so he begins this new section answering these questions at length, chapters 9 through 11.

00:05:51.219 --> 00:05:56.019
 And he's demonstrating that indeed, God has been faithful to his word.

00:05:56.480 --> 00:06:00.740
 And that he has kept his promises towards Israel.

00:06:00.740 --> 00:06:08.720
 So in these chapters, he will show, he will prove that within the nation of Israel, right,

00:06:08.840 --> 00:06:14.920
 as there's a larger circle of ethnic, national Israel.

00:06:15.460 --> 00:06:21.819
 Within that is a smaller, concentric circle of saved, spiritual Israel.

00:06:22.040 --> 00:06:25.620
 A remnant that God has chosen for salvation.

00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:28.960
 Just a very similar connection to us today.

00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:33.539
 Just because we see a larger circle of the gathered church.

00:06:33.919 --> 00:06:41.240
 But we know that just because we can see a church gathered doesn't mean that everyone inside that gathering belongs to Christ.

00:06:42.060 --> 00:06:48.079
 There are, within these larger circles, smaller, concentric circles of the invisible church.

00:06:48.779 --> 00:06:51.060
 And that's the way it is with this passage.

00:06:51.159 --> 00:06:52.599
 This is what he's going on to prove.

00:06:52.600 --> 00:07:00.860
 But before he goes into that at length, he wants us to take a glimpse into his heart for his fellow Jews.

00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:17.180
 It's very important because I think if we see how he answers this, how he brings us out, it'll help us later look at these amazing but hard doctrines of salvation, sovereign election, and what God talks about.

00:07:17.180 --> 00:07:22.019
 So there's only two parts, two points really, of our message today.

00:07:22.819 --> 00:07:24.040
 Part number one.

00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:26.259
 Or number one.

00:07:27.540 --> 00:07:31.860
 See Paul's personal connection to unbelieving Israel.

00:07:31.860 --> 00:07:35.920
 Paul's personal connection to unbelieving Israel.

00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:38.120
 He says in verse one,

00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:39.500
 I'm speaking the truth in Christ.

00:07:39.620 --> 00:07:40.460
 I'm not lying.

00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:47.460
 My conscience bears witness in the Holy Spirit that I have great sorrow and unsecretely anguish in my heart.

00:07:48.340 --> 00:07:58.240
 For I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my kinsmen, according to the flesh.

00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:07.579
 And so many, many believers give lip service to their sadness for the loss.

00:08:08.259 --> 00:08:09.579
 That's just so bad.

00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:10.699
 That's just too sad.

00:08:11.540 --> 00:08:15.900
 Paul, on the other hand, wants us to understand this is not just sentimental.

00:08:16.900 --> 00:08:19.460
 A sentimental aside from what he's talking about.

00:08:19.540 --> 00:08:22.660
 It's not just lip service or how bad he feels about the loss.

00:08:22.660 --> 00:08:34.399
 He truly, actually, sincerely feels deep sorrow in his soul for his Jewish kinsmen that are living in darkness away from Christ.

00:08:35.259 --> 00:08:39.180
 As we unpack this verse by verse, he says, I'm speaking the truth in Christ.

00:08:39.920 --> 00:08:40.840
 I'm not lying.

00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:47.840
 So he's calling on the very presence of Jesus himself to bear witness that he is not lying.

00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:49.860
 He is being truthful.

00:08:49.860 --> 00:08:55.980
 We might be tempted to lie, but if we actually had an awareness that Jesus was there with us,

00:08:56.820 --> 00:09:01.340
 we would have a much harder time uttering a lie.

00:09:02.860 --> 00:09:04.720
 And so he's not exaggerating.

00:09:04.820 --> 00:09:08.159
 He's speaking the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:12.200
 So giving further certification to this, he says,

00:09:12.300 --> 00:09:15.080
 My conscience bears me witness in the Holy Spirit.

00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:22.800
 You ever notice that when we lie, when lies can out of our mouths immediately,

00:09:23.259 --> 00:09:25.560
 there's something that convicts us?

00:09:26.900 --> 00:09:30.680
 It says the law of God is written on our hearts in Romans chapter 2.

00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:33.720
 And when we lie, we sin against our conscience.

00:09:34.520 --> 00:09:39.660
 So Paul calls his conscience to bear witness in the Holy Spirit.

00:09:39.659 --> 00:09:43.759
 All right, Jesus calls the Holy Spirit the Spirit of truth.

00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:49.699
 So the Spirit himself is bearing witness of the truth of what he is going to say.

00:09:50.459 --> 00:09:57.059
 And our consciences should be bathed in the light and warmth of the Holy Spirit at all times

00:09:57.059 --> 00:09:58.959
 to maintain integrity.

00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.639
 A conscience surrendered to God's Word and to the Holy Spirit.

00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:06.639
 That's what we must aim for.

00:10:07.460 --> 00:10:11.779
 So then he says he invokes that as a witness to his truthfulness and his reliability.

00:10:12.659 --> 00:10:13.879
 So you might think like,

00:10:14.199 --> 00:10:17.860
 Well, Paul, have you been lying to us elsewhere?

00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:20.279
 Like, why do you feel now the need to say,

00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:21.519
 Hey, I'm telling you the truth?

00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:23.559
 Because aren't you always telling us the truth?

00:10:24.340 --> 00:10:25.340
 It's a fair question.

00:10:26.199 --> 00:10:27.679
 But here's the point.

00:10:28.419 --> 00:10:32.039
 Why he feels the need to express his true motives about this.

00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:38.439
 Because what he's about to say could seem so unbelievable, so incredible,

00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:45.319
 even exaggerated, that we might be tempted to think that he's not actually telling us the truth.

00:10:45.740 --> 00:10:47.879
 So that's why he emphasizes this.

00:10:47.980 --> 00:10:51.879
 Everything from out of his mouth, he truly, sincerely believes.

00:10:52.779 --> 00:10:58.519
 So he looks at his lost kinsmen, the Jewish people, the Israelites.

00:10:59.639 --> 00:10:59.879
 All right?

00:10:59.879 --> 00:11:05.340
 So following, again, the most glorious explanation of the gospel recorded in human language in Romans 8,

00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:10.000
 he immediately breaks into this lamentation.

00:11:11.019 --> 00:11:14.500
 His tone moves from the apex of joy to very solemn.

00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:17.299
 As Sinclair Ferguson said,

00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:22.899
 Paul goes from ecstasy to anguish.

00:11:23.500 --> 00:11:24.320
 Just like that.

00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:27.299
 Paul confesses he suffers great.

00:11:27.299 --> 00:11:29.859
 That's the word mega.

00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:31.959
 Great sorrow.

00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:36.479
 Which means immense sadness and deep distress.

00:11:37.579 --> 00:11:40.500
 And then he says unceasing anguish.

00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:45.179
 Which means this constant pain and perpetual torment.

00:11:45.799 --> 00:11:49.459
 Something that he can't just have a moment of and then put it aside.

00:11:49.460 --> 00:11:53.780
 And it's after him all day and all night.

00:11:54.240 --> 00:12:00.200
 This perpetual anguish in his heart about his unbelieving Jewish kinsmen.

00:12:00.920 --> 00:12:03.900
 Later on in chapter 10, verse 1, he says,

00:12:04.019 --> 00:12:10.519
 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for them, the Jewish people,

00:12:10.860 --> 00:12:12.800
 is that they may be saved.

00:12:12.799 --> 00:12:18.359
 So he has this desire for all of them to come to know Jesus as the true Messiah.

00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:23.199
 But isn't it interesting, again, that on the summit of hope in chapter 8,

00:12:23.279 --> 00:12:28.139
 he immediately thinks about those who are not there with him.

00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:34.839
 It reminds me of a missionary who went to Papua New Guinea

00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:37.620
 and shared the gospel with the tribe.

00:12:38.800 --> 00:12:42.519
 The Moak people shared the gospel at length,

00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:46.160
 unpacked it for them, and they're all just sitting there in suspense,

00:12:46.280 --> 00:12:47.399
 waiting to know what's going to happen,

00:12:47.580 --> 00:12:51.360
 and tells them that Jesus died and that Jesus rose again,

00:12:51.440 --> 00:12:53.060
 and that they put their hope and trust in Jesus,

00:12:53.220 --> 00:12:55.360
 that they will be saved.

00:12:55.420 --> 00:12:57.100
 And they break out into celebration,

00:12:57.500 --> 00:12:59.720
 like a joyful celebration,

00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:02.460
 that if they put their hope in Christ, they will be saved.

00:13:02.460 --> 00:13:07.060
 And it turned into dancing and praising God.

00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:10.379
 And then the missionary said,

00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:12.379
 At some point following that,

00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:17.180
 they all just broke down weeping and crying uncontrollably.

00:13:18.100 --> 00:13:22.900
 And he inquired why this was happening to one of the village elders.

00:13:23.060 --> 00:13:23.360
 And he goes,

00:13:24.019 --> 00:13:28.720
 I think they've just realized that all their family who has gone before them is not with God.

00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:36.100
 And then they actually returned back to rejoicing not long after that.

00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:38.519
 That's what we see here.

00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:44.700
 Paul deeply and truly loves the Jewish people from whom he was born and raised.

00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:48.100
 He treasures the rich heritage, right,

00:13:48.139 --> 00:13:54.700
 of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, David, Solomon, Elijah, and the prophets.

00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:56.700
 Like he loves his people.

00:13:56.700 --> 00:14:00.460
 Paul loved their customs and their traditions.

00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:03.240
 He wrote in Galatians 1.14,

00:14:03.500 --> 00:14:07.900
 that he was extremely zealous for the traditions of his fathers.

00:14:08.879 --> 00:14:10.140
 A deep love for them.

00:14:10.220 --> 00:14:10.660
 And then he says,

00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:13.240
 For their sake, right,

00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:15.660
 some of us may feel sorrow in our hearts.

00:14:15.740 --> 00:14:17.400
 I know I do,

00:14:17.500 --> 00:14:20.140
 but not to this degree of anguish.

00:14:20.139 --> 00:14:22.659
 What he says,

00:14:22.779 --> 00:14:24.720
 most of us could never follow.

00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:25.199
 Like,

00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:26.659
 in our conscience,

00:14:26.779 --> 00:14:27.000
 I'm like,

00:14:27.059 --> 00:14:27.980
 I don't know

00:14:27.980 --> 00:14:29.879
 if I could say that.

00:14:30.779 --> 00:14:31.659
 But he says,

00:14:31.740 --> 00:14:34.159
 I wish that I myself were accursed,

00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:38.360
 cut off from Christ for the sake of my brothers,

00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:39.840
 my kinsmen,

00:14:39.939 --> 00:14:41.299
 according to the flesh.

00:14:41.299 --> 00:14:42.659
 All right,

00:14:42.719 --> 00:14:42.859
 now,

00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:43.539
 now understand,

00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:46.199
 Paul knows in his head

00:14:46.199 --> 00:14:48.379
 that that's an impossibility.

00:14:48.939 --> 00:14:50.819
 Because of what he just wrote in Romans 8.

00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:53.219
 He knows that nothing can separate him

00:14:53.219 --> 00:14:55.039
 from the love of Christ.

00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:55.879
 That's in his head,

00:14:55.979 --> 00:14:58.439
 but his heart is still aching

00:14:58.439 --> 00:15:01.479
 with conflict for his lost kinsmen.

00:15:02.479 --> 00:15:02.740
 Indeed,

00:15:02.819 --> 00:15:04.139
 if it was even possible,

00:15:04.620 --> 00:15:05.899
 he says he would choose

00:15:05.899 --> 00:15:07.339
 to be accursed

00:15:07.339 --> 00:15:08.859
 for their sake.

00:15:08.860 --> 00:15:11.340
 that's a word

00:15:11.340 --> 00:15:12.620
 that some of you may be familiar with.

00:15:12.680 --> 00:15:13.460
 It means anathema,

00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:14.300
 cut off,

00:15:14.379 --> 00:15:17.340
 to suffer the fury and wrath of God

00:15:17.340 --> 00:15:18.180
 is what it means.

00:15:19.100 --> 00:15:20.840
 To suffer their punishment,

00:15:22.100 --> 00:15:22.840
 their kinsmen,

00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:23.940
 according to the flesh.

00:15:23.980 --> 00:15:24.860
 He's basically saying,

00:15:24.980 --> 00:15:26.759
 I'm willing to lose Christ

00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:30.360
 if they only could gain Christ.

00:15:31.419 --> 00:15:31.659
 Now,

00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:33.320
 I only picked one place

00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:34.300
 for you to turn today.

00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:37.639
 It was hard to settle in,

00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:38.879
 but I want you to

00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:40.439
 just join me briefly

00:15:40.439 --> 00:15:43.100
 in Revelation 20.

00:15:43.899 --> 00:15:44.840
 Hold your hand,

00:15:44.960 --> 00:15:45.559
 Romans 9,

00:15:45.620 --> 00:15:47.379
 and look at Revelation 20.

00:15:51.179 --> 00:15:52.960
 What does this look like?

00:15:54.220 --> 00:15:54.679
 You know,

00:15:54.740 --> 00:15:56.240
 all of us will face

00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:58.659
 God's judgment one day.

00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:02.899
 Some of us are prepared.

00:16:03.860 --> 00:16:06.259
 Some of us are not prepared.

00:16:06.259 --> 00:16:09.080
 And I want you to think about

00:16:09.080 --> 00:16:10.779
 where you may be

00:16:10.779 --> 00:16:11.700
 as well as

00:16:11.700 --> 00:16:13.000
 what about the state of those

00:16:13.000 --> 00:16:15.379
 who you love

00:16:15.379 --> 00:16:16.299
 and you care about?

00:16:16.939 --> 00:16:17.960
 Your family,

00:16:18.179 --> 00:16:18.720
 your friends,

00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:20.200
 those that you have contact with.

00:16:21.179 --> 00:16:22.019
 And I want you to

00:16:22.019 --> 00:16:23.360
 think about

00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:25.500
 approaching the judgment.

00:16:26.299 --> 00:16:28.139
 Or to envision them

00:16:28.139 --> 00:16:29.500
 approaching the judgment.

00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:31.659
 But God is called

00:16:31.659 --> 00:16:33.000
 the righteous judge.

00:16:33.059 --> 00:16:34.480
 He always does

00:16:34.480 --> 00:16:35.200
 what's right.

00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:37.580
 We've seen a lot of

00:16:37.580 --> 00:16:38.960
 corruption in our world

00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:39.899
 and in our nation

00:16:39.899 --> 00:16:40.420
 with

00:16:40.420 --> 00:16:43.680
 courts and law

00:16:43.680 --> 00:16:44.399
 being used

00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:45.639
 in unjust ways.

00:16:46.600 --> 00:16:48.340
 God makes no such mistakes.

00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:50.200
 He is the righteous judge.

00:16:51.019 --> 00:16:52.139
 And he's vowed

00:16:52.139 --> 00:16:52.720
 one day

00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:53.360
 to judge

00:16:53.360 --> 00:16:54.360
 all humanity

00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:56.019
 that has rebelled

00:16:56.019 --> 00:16:56.680
 against him.

00:16:57.600 --> 00:16:58.879
 Look at Revelation 20.

00:16:58.980 --> 00:16:59.920
 Go to verse 11.

00:16:59.919 --> 00:17:01.860
 This is following

00:17:01.860 --> 00:17:02.819
 chapter 19

00:17:02.819 --> 00:17:04.619
 of the armies of heaven

00:17:04.619 --> 00:17:05.180
 coming down

00:17:05.180 --> 00:17:05.700
 to judge

00:17:05.700 --> 00:17:06.440
 and make war.

00:17:06.639 --> 00:17:07.079
 And before the

00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:08.759
 before the new heaven

00:17:08.759 --> 00:17:09.460
 and the new earth

00:17:09.460 --> 00:17:10.460
 in chapter 21

00:17:10.460 --> 00:17:12.440
 we find this image

00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:13.220
 of the great

00:17:13.220 --> 00:17:14.180
 white throne

00:17:14.180 --> 00:17:14.799
 judgment.

00:17:15.579 --> 00:17:16.359
 A phrase that

00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:17.480
 scared the junk

00:17:17.480 --> 00:17:17.940
 out of me

00:17:17.940 --> 00:17:18.839
 when I was a kid.

00:17:20.279 --> 00:17:21.539
 And justly so.

00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:23.139
 Revelation 20

00:17:23.139 --> 00:17:23.759
 verse 11

00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:25.819
 John says

00:17:25.819 --> 00:17:27.480
 I saw a great

00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:28.200
 white throne

00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:29.980
 and him who was

00:17:29.980 --> 00:17:30.679
 seated on it.

00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:32.399
 From his presence

00:17:32.399 --> 00:17:34.379
 earth and sky

00:17:34.379 --> 00:17:35.159
 fled away

00:17:35.159 --> 00:17:36.700
 and no place

00:17:36.700 --> 00:17:37.700
 was found for them.

00:17:38.579 --> 00:17:39.700
 And I saw the dead

00:17:39.700 --> 00:17:40.819
 the great and the small

00:17:40.819 --> 00:17:42.179
 standing before the throne

00:17:42.179 --> 00:17:42.799
 and books

00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:43.659
 were opened.

00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:45.519
 And another book

00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:46.079
 was opened

00:17:46.079 --> 00:17:47.379
 which is the book

00:17:47.379 --> 00:17:48.000
 of life.

00:17:49.419 --> 00:17:50.339
 And the dead

00:17:50.339 --> 00:17:50.960
 were judged

00:17:50.960 --> 00:17:51.799
 by what was written

00:17:51.799 --> 00:17:52.679
 in the books

00:17:52.679 --> 00:17:54.019
 according to what

00:17:54.019 --> 00:17:54.919
 they had done.

00:17:55.819 --> 00:17:56.639
 And the sea

00:17:56.639 --> 00:17:57.659
 gave up the dead

00:17:57.659 --> 00:17:58.579
 who were in it.

00:17:59.240 --> 00:17:59.919
 Death and Hades

00:17:59.919 --> 00:18:00.779
 gave up the dead

00:18:00.779 --> 00:18:01.480
 who were in them.

00:18:02.139 --> 00:18:03.200
 And they were judged

00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:04.460
 each one of them

00:18:04.460 --> 00:18:05.879
 according to what

00:18:05.879 --> 00:18:06.539
 they had done.

00:18:07.639 --> 00:18:08.839
 Then death and Hades

00:18:08.839 --> 00:18:09.359
 were thrown

00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:10.480
 into the lake of fire.

00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:13.179
 This is the second death

00:18:13.179 --> 00:18:14.759
 the lake of fire.

00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:16.960
 If anyone's name

00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:17.960
 was not found

00:18:17.960 --> 00:18:19.039
 written in the book

00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:19.659
 of life

00:18:19.659 --> 00:18:21.159
 he was thrown

00:18:21.159 --> 00:18:21.980
 into the lake

00:18:21.980 --> 00:18:22.559
 of fire.

00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:26.339
 I hope that

00:18:26.339 --> 00:18:28.940
 in a good way

00:18:28.940 --> 00:18:29.980
 this passage

00:18:29.980 --> 00:18:30.659
 sobers us

00:18:30.659 --> 00:18:31.220
 this morning.

00:18:32.779 --> 00:18:33.779
 We look at God's

00:18:33.779 --> 00:18:34.359
 throne

00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:34.980
 that's high

00:18:34.980 --> 00:18:35.619
 and exalted

00:18:35.619 --> 00:18:36.579
 and it's white

00:18:36.579 --> 00:18:37.679
 which means pure

00:18:37.679 --> 00:18:39.059
 and holy

00:18:39.059 --> 00:18:41.379
 and at God's

00:18:41.379 --> 00:18:42.059
 presence

00:18:42.059 --> 00:18:43.720
 the fallen

00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:44.359
 creation

00:18:44.359 --> 00:18:45.500
 just flees away.

00:18:46.019 --> 00:18:47.019
 Like it's too

00:18:47.019 --> 00:18:47.859
 unclean

00:18:47.859 --> 00:18:48.879
 to be in his

00:18:48.879 --> 00:18:49.240
 sight.

00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:50.960
 Making way

00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:51.940
 for the new heaven

00:18:51.940 --> 00:18:53.000
 and the new earth.

00:18:53.799 --> 00:18:54.660
 And it says that

00:18:54.660 --> 00:18:55.340
 all people

00:18:55.340 --> 00:18:55.860
 all men

00:18:55.860 --> 00:18:56.480
 the powerful

00:18:56.480 --> 00:18:57.160
 the great

00:18:57.160 --> 00:18:57.779
 the strong

00:18:57.779 --> 00:18:58.559
 world leaders

00:18:58.559 --> 00:18:59.880
 the rich

00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:00.420
 the poor

00:19:00.420 --> 00:19:00.920
 the beggar

00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:01.460
 on the street

00:19:01.460 --> 00:19:02.900
 and the most

00:19:02.900 --> 00:19:04.140
 powerful leader

00:19:04.140 --> 00:19:04.980
 among us

00:19:04.980 --> 00:19:06.279
 all stand

00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:07.160
 before the throne.

00:19:07.900 --> 00:19:08.900
 And it says that

00:19:08.900 --> 00:19:09.880
 there are books

00:19:09.880 --> 00:19:11.100
 plural

00:19:11.100 --> 00:19:11.880
 see that

00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:14.279
 books recording

00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:15.500
 more than likely

00:19:15.500 --> 00:19:16.259
 every thought

00:19:16.259 --> 00:19:17.019
 every deed

00:19:17.019 --> 00:19:18.539
 and every sin

00:19:18.539 --> 00:19:19.039
 committed

00:19:19.039 --> 00:19:21.339
 by individuals.

00:19:22.399 --> 00:19:23.200
 And then there is

00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:23.920
 a singular

00:19:23.920 --> 00:19:24.960
 book

00:19:24.960 --> 00:19:26.539
 the book

00:19:26.539 --> 00:19:27.139
 of life

00:19:27.139 --> 00:19:28.659
 that contains

00:19:28.659 --> 00:19:29.099
 the name

00:19:29.099 --> 00:19:30.099
 of all those

00:19:30.099 --> 00:19:30.920
 who have trusted

00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:31.740
 their souls

00:19:31.740 --> 00:19:32.879
 to Jesus Christ

00:19:32.879 --> 00:19:34.559
 the book

00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:35.079
 of life

00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:35.839
 of the Lamb.

00:19:36.899 --> 00:19:37.680
 And it says that

00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:38.420
 in God's

00:19:38.420 --> 00:19:39.180
 perfect judgment

00:19:39.180 --> 00:19:40.039
 he examines

00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:41.079
 all these things

00:19:41.079 --> 00:19:42.639
 and it says

00:19:42.639 --> 00:19:43.460
 if anyone's name

00:19:43.460 --> 00:19:44.460
 was not found

00:19:44.460 --> 00:19:45.019
 in the book

00:19:45.019 --> 00:19:45.500
 of life

00:19:45.500 --> 00:19:46.339
 they were cast

00:19:46.339 --> 00:19:48.039
 into the lake

00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:48.539
 of fire.

00:19:49.579 --> 00:19:50.599
 The first

00:19:50.599 --> 00:19:51.799
 death is physical

00:19:51.799 --> 00:19:53.699
 we all will

00:19:53.699 --> 00:19:54.319
 suffer that

00:19:54.319 --> 00:19:55.779
 the second

00:19:55.779 --> 00:19:56.199
 death

00:19:56.199 --> 00:19:57.779
 is spiritual

00:19:57.779 --> 00:19:58.799
 far worse

00:19:58.799 --> 00:20:00.559
 and if we

00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:01.399
 do not have

00:20:01.399 --> 00:20:01.879
 Jesus

00:20:01.879 --> 00:20:03.339
 approaching this

00:20:03.339 --> 00:20:03.699
 day

00:20:03.699 --> 00:20:05.419
 we will perish

00:20:05.419 --> 00:20:07.240
 under God's

00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:07.699
 just

00:20:07.699 --> 00:20:09.039
 and righteous

00:20:09.039 --> 00:20:09.959
 judgment.

00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:12.119
 And that

00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:14.559
 individually

00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:15.479
 makes me

00:20:15.479 --> 00:20:18.599
 I will say

00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:18.979
 I'm

00:20:18.979 --> 00:20:20.459
 I'm scared

00:20:20.459 --> 00:20:21.119
 but I'm not

00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:21.659
 terrified

00:20:21.659 --> 00:20:22.359
 if that makes

00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:22.779
 sense.

00:20:23.859 --> 00:20:24.939
 A reverence

00:20:24.939 --> 00:20:25.519
 for what

00:20:25.519 --> 00:20:26.259
 is to take

00:20:26.259 --> 00:20:26.939
 place there

00:20:26.939 --> 00:20:28.519
 but I also

00:20:28.519 --> 00:20:29.419
 can look over

00:20:29.419 --> 00:20:30.019
 and envision

00:20:30.019 --> 00:20:30.859
 those that

00:20:30.859 --> 00:20:32.259
 I know

00:20:32.259 --> 00:20:33.279
 my family

00:20:33.279 --> 00:20:33.819
 members

00:20:33.819 --> 00:20:35.579
 my friends

00:20:35.579 --> 00:20:36.359
 people that

00:20:36.359 --> 00:20:37.699
 do not

00:20:37.699 --> 00:20:38.519
 have Christ

00:20:38.519 --> 00:20:40.339
 approaching

00:20:40.339 --> 00:20:41.039
 that throne

00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:41.680
 they will not

00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:42.379
 they will not

00:20:42.379 --> 00:20:42.779
 make it

00:20:42.779 --> 00:20:43.619
 they will not

00:20:43.619 --> 00:20:44.519
 survive

00:20:44.519 --> 00:20:46.180
 and so

00:20:46.180 --> 00:20:48.119
 I want

00:20:48.119 --> 00:20:48.359
 to

00:20:48.359 --> 00:20:50.099
 as best

00:20:50.099 --> 00:20:50.740
 I can

00:20:50.740 --> 00:20:52.259
 try to get

00:20:52.259 --> 00:20:52.720
 to where

00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:53.639
 Paul is

00:20:53.639 --> 00:20:54.339
 I hope that

00:20:54.339 --> 00:20:55.559
 you ask God

00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:56.059
 to help you

00:20:56.059 --> 00:20:56.480
 see that

00:20:56.480 --> 00:20:56.920
 to see

00:20:56.920 --> 00:20:57.819
 yourself

00:20:57.819 --> 00:20:58.599
 and those

00:20:58.599 --> 00:20:58.879
 that you

00:20:58.879 --> 00:20:59.240
 love

00:20:59.240 --> 00:20:59.799
 facing

00:20:59.799 --> 00:21:00.940
 this

00:21:00.940 --> 00:21:01.599
 oncoming

00:21:01.599 --> 00:21:02.039
 judgment

00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:03.000
 from God

00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:05.220
 this is not

00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:05.659
 just

00:21:05.659 --> 00:21:06.619
 a sentiment

00:21:06.619 --> 00:21:07.139
 that

00:21:07.139 --> 00:21:08.180
 Paul

00:21:08.180 --> 00:21:08.700
 himself

00:21:08.700 --> 00:21:09.079
 had

00:21:09.079 --> 00:21:10.440
 Moses

00:21:10.440 --> 00:21:11.160
 likewise

00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:11.640
 shared

00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:12.120
 in that

00:21:12.120 --> 00:21:13.120
 when he

00:21:13.120 --> 00:21:13.460
 was on

00:21:13.460 --> 00:21:14.240
 Mount Sinai

00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:14.980
 an Israelite

00:21:14.980 --> 00:21:15.320
 camp

00:21:15.320 --> 00:21:15.840
 turned

00:21:15.840 --> 00:21:16.539
 to

00:21:16.539 --> 00:21:17.340
 idolatry

00:21:17.340 --> 00:21:17.900
 in a

00:21:17.900 --> 00:21:18.539
 pagan

00:21:18.539 --> 00:21:19.840
 awful

00:21:19.840 --> 00:21:20.559
 celebration

00:21:20.559 --> 00:21:21.460
 of depravity

00:21:21.460 --> 00:21:22.299
 and unbelief

00:21:22.299 --> 00:21:24.120
 so Moses

00:21:24.120 --> 00:21:24.840
 feels

00:21:24.840 --> 00:21:25.340
 God's

00:21:25.340 --> 00:21:25.779
 righteous

00:21:25.779 --> 00:21:26.600
 indignation

00:21:26.600 --> 00:21:27.279
 towards the

00:21:27.279 --> 00:21:27.620
 nation

00:21:27.620 --> 00:21:28.960
 he knows

00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:29.559
 that punishment

00:21:29.559 --> 00:21:30.279
 will come

00:21:30.279 --> 00:21:31.539
 and he

00:21:31.539 --> 00:21:32.460
 jumps

00:21:32.460 --> 00:21:33.640
 between the

00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:34.019
 people

00:21:34.019 --> 00:21:34.900
 and God

00:21:34.900 --> 00:21:36.440
 and he

00:21:36.440 --> 00:21:37.299
 offers

00:21:37.299 --> 00:21:38.620
 himself

00:21:38.620 --> 00:21:39.299
 much in the

00:21:39.299 --> 00:21:39.720
 way Paul

00:21:39.720 --> 00:21:40.339
 does here

00:21:40.339 --> 00:21:41.519
 to save

00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:41.759
 you from

00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:42.100
 turning

00:21:42.100 --> 00:21:42.360
 there

00:21:42.360 --> 00:21:42.860
 if you

00:21:42.860 --> 00:21:43.039
 want to

00:21:43.039 --> 00:21:43.259
 look at

00:21:43.259 --> 00:21:43.559
 later

00:21:43.559 --> 00:21:43.900
 Exodus

00:21:43.900 --> 00:21:44.539
 32

00:21:44.539 --> 00:21:45.000
 30

00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:45.200
 through

00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:45.680
 33

00:21:45.680 --> 00:21:47.100
 but he

00:21:47.100 --> 00:21:47.360
 said

00:21:47.360 --> 00:21:47.640
 if you

00:21:47.640 --> 00:21:47.799
 will

00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:48.160
 forgive

00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:48.400
 their

00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:48.900
 sin

00:21:48.900 --> 00:21:50.259
 but if

00:21:50.259 --> 00:21:50.620
 not

00:21:50.620 --> 00:21:51.039
 blot

00:21:51.039 --> 00:21:51.400
 me

00:21:51.400 --> 00:21:51.779
 out

00:21:51.779 --> 00:21:52.319
 from

00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:52.500
 your

00:21:52.500 --> 00:21:52.880
 book

00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:53.660
 that

00:21:53.660 --> 00:21:53.839
 you

00:21:53.839 --> 00:21:54.039
 have

00:21:54.039 --> 00:21:54.339
 written

00:21:54.339 --> 00:21:56.279
 and the

00:21:56.279 --> 00:21:56.460
 Lord

00:21:56.460 --> 00:21:56.700
 said

00:21:56.700 --> 00:21:56.839
 to

00:21:56.839 --> 00:21:57.100
 Moses

00:21:57.100 --> 00:21:57.460
 whoever

00:21:57.460 --> 00:21:57.720
 has

00:21:57.720 --> 00:21:58.000
 sinned

00:21:58.000 --> 00:21:58.240
 against

00:21:58.240 --> 00:21:58.680
 me

00:21:58.680 --> 00:21:59.960
 I

00:21:59.960 --> 00:22:00.240
 will

00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:00.559
 blot

00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:00.880
 out

00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:02.079
 from

00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:02.819
 my

00:22:02.819 --> 00:22:03.200
 book

00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:04.700
 and so

00:22:04.700 --> 00:22:05.340
 Moses

00:22:05.340 --> 00:22:05.900
 himself

00:22:05.900 --> 00:22:06.519
 felt this

00:22:06.519 --> 00:22:07.039
 need to

00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:07.620
 intercede

00:22:07.620 --> 00:22:08.019
 for his

00:22:08.019 --> 00:22:08.380
 people

00:22:08.380 --> 00:22:10.440
 but

00:22:10.440 --> 00:22:11.140
 as we

00:22:11.140 --> 00:22:11.460
 know

00:22:11.460 --> 00:22:12.840
 only Jesus

00:22:12.840 --> 00:22:13.580
 can bear

00:22:13.580 --> 00:22:15.000
 the punishment

00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:15.840
 as a substitute

00:22:15.840 --> 00:22:16.420
 and take

00:22:16.420 --> 00:22:17.120
 God's wrath

00:22:17.120 --> 00:22:17.740
 no man

00:22:17.740 --> 00:22:18.740
 is capable

00:22:18.740 --> 00:22:20.460
 then finally

00:22:20.460 --> 00:22:20.960
 we know

00:22:20.960 --> 00:22:21.440
 that our

00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:21.680
 Lord

00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:22.079
 himself

00:22:22.079 --> 00:22:22.380
 upon

00:22:22.380 --> 00:22:22.839
 approaching

00:22:22.839 --> 00:22:23.539
 Jerusalem

00:22:23.539 --> 00:22:24.599
 before

00:22:24.599 --> 00:22:25.059
 he was

00:22:25.059 --> 00:22:25.460
 to be

00:22:25.460 --> 00:22:26.019
 arrested

00:22:26.019 --> 00:22:27.440
 beaten

00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:28.819
 and

00:22:28.819 --> 00:22:29.259
 crucified

00:22:29.259 --> 00:22:31.240
 upon

00:22:31.240 --> 00:22:32.019
 looking over

00:22:32.019 --> 00:22:32.420
 the whole

00:22:32.420 --> 00:22:32.839
 city

00:22:32.839 --> 00:22:33.319
 Jesus

00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:34.079
 cried out

00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:35.220
 oh

00:22:35.220 --> 00:22:35.759
 Jerusalem

00:22:35.759 --> 00:22:36.940
 Jerusalem

00:22:36.940 --> 00:22:38.700
 the city

00:22:38.700 --> 00:22:39.220
 that kills

00:22:39.220 --> 00:22:39.859
 the prophets

00:22:39.859 --> 00:22:40.599
 and stones

00:22:40.599 --> 00:22:40.940
 them

00:22:40.940 --> 00:22:42.059
 who are

00:22:42.059 --> 00:22:42.539
 sent to

00:22:42.539 --> 00:22:42.759
 it

00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:44.460
 how often

00:22:44.460 --> 00:22:45.000
 would I

00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:45.500
 have gathered

00:22:45.500 --> 00:22:46.059
 your children

00:22:46.059 --> 00:22:46.599
 together

00:22:46.599 --> 00:22:47.700
 as a

00:22:47.700 --> 00:22:47.900
 hen

00:22:47.900 --> 00:22:48.359
 gathers

00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:49.219
 her brood

00:22:49.219 --> 00:22:49.479
 under

00:22:49.479 --> 00:22:50.359
 her wings

00:22:50.359 --> 00:22:51.359
 and you

00:22:51.359 --> 00:22:51.919
 were not

00:22:51.919 --> 00:22:52.579
 willing

00:22:52.579 --> 00:22:54.219
 so Jesus

00:22:54.219 --> 00:22:54.819
 himself

00:22:54.819 --> 00:22:55.399
 felt

00:22:55.399 --> 00:22:56.599
 broken

00:22:56.599 --> 00:22:57.319
 heartedness

00:22:57.319 --> 00:22:58.299
 for the

00:22:58.299 --> 00:22:58.639
 people

00:22:58.639 --> 00:22:59.899
 so this

00:22:59.899 --> 00:23:00.500
 is all

00:23:00.500 --> 00:23:01.259
 Paul's

00:23:01.259 --> 00:23:02.079
 personal

00:23:02.079 --> 00:23:02.659
 connection

00:23:02.659 --> 00:23:02.899
 with

00:23:02.899 --> 00:23:03.559
 unbelieving

00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:04.019
 Israel

00:23:04.019 --> 00:23:05.599
 now

00:23:05.599 --> 00:23:06.019
 point

00:23:06.019 --> 00:23:06.279
 number

00:23:06.279 --> 00:23:06.659
 two

00:23:06.659 --> 00:23:08.339
 is

00:23:08.339 --> 00:23:09.000
 God's

00:23:09.000 --> 00:23:09.500
 personal

00:23:09.500 --> 00:23:10.240
 connection

00:23:10.240 --> 00:23:11.099
 to

00:23:11.099 --> 00:23:11.740
 unbelieving

00:23:11.740 --> 00:23:12.319
 Israel

 haven't

00:25:14.179 --> 00:25:14.419
 that's

00:25:14.419 --> 00:25:14.659
 not

00:25:14.659 --> 00:25:15.019
 true

 why it's

00:31:32.399 --> 00:31:33.539
 it's

00:31:33.539 --> 00:31:34.079
 important

00:31:34.079 --> 00:31:35.000
 it's

00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:35.220
 saying

00:31:35.220 --> 00:31:35.439
 he

00:31:37.059 --> 00:31:37.519
 through

00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:38.299
 the

00:31:38.299 --> 00:31:38.700
 line

00:31:38.700 --> 00:31:38.859
 he

00:31:38.859 --> 00:31:39.019
 was

00:31:39.019 --> 00:31:39.159
 a

00:31:41.859 --> 00:31:42.079
 is

00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:42.319
 not

00:31:42.319 --> 00:31:42.559
 just

00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:42.980
 merely

00:31:50.799 --> 00:31:51.240
 praise

00:31:51.240 --> 00:31:51.500
 if

00:31:51.500 --> 00:31:51.619
 he

00:31:51.619 --> 00:31:51.899
 can't

00:31:51.899 --> 00:31:52.119
 think

00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:52.359
 about

00:31:52.359 --> 00:31:52.819
 Jesus

00:31:52.819 --> 00:31:53.939
 without

00:31:53.939 --> 00:31:55.000
 busting

00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:55.220
 out

00:31:55.220 --> 00:31:55.480
 into

 praise

00:31:55.980 --> 00:31:57.059
 so

00:31:57.059 --> 00:31:57.220
 in

00:31:57.220 --> 00:31:57.620
 closing

 this

00:31:57.940 --> 00:31:58.220
 part

00:31:58.220 --> 00:31:58.360
 of

00:31:58.360 --> 00:31:58.539
 it

00:31:58.539 --> 00:31:59.200
 the

00:31:59.200 --> 00:31:59.559
 nation

00:31:59.559 --> 00:31:59.740
 of

00:31:59.740 --> 00:32:00.019
 Israel

00:32:00.019 --> 00:32:00.240
 had

00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:00.640
 every

00:32:00.640 --> 00:32:01.160

00:32:01.160 --> 00:32:01.599
 every

 grace

00:32:02.180 --> 00:32:03.380
 given

 to

00:32:03.579 --> 00:32:03.759
 them

00:32:03.759 --> 00:32:03.940

00:32:04.799 --> 00:32:04.960
 be

00:32:04.960 --> 00:32:05.519
 redeemed

00:32:05.519 --> 00:32:05.860
 by

00:32:08.599 --> 00:32:09.240
 rightly

00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:10.420
 so

00:32:10.420 --> 00:32:10.799
 that

00:32:10.799 --> 00:32:11.740
 escalates

00:32:11.740 --> 00:32:12.839
 their

00:32:12.839 --> 00:32:13.500
 accountability

00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:17.259
 that was

00:32:17.259 --> 00:32:17.579
 given

00:32:17.980 --> 00:32:18.319

00:32:18.319 --> 00:32:20.039
 that's

00:32:21.220 --> 00:32:22.920
 so much

00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:23.339
 is given

00:32:23.339 --> 00:32:23.620
 much

00:32:23.620 --> 00:32:23.860

00:36:41.440 --> 00:36:41.679
 about

00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:41.839
 what

00:36:41.839 --> 00:36:41.980
 we

00:36:41.980 --> 00:36:42.440
 believe

00:36:42.440 --> 00:36:42.679
 about

00:36:42.679 --> 00:36:42.960
 Romans

00:36:42.960 --> 00:36:43.279
 8

00:36:43.279 --> 00:36:44.679
 okay

00:36:44.679 --> 00:36:47.019
 this

00:36:47.019 --> 00:36:47.819
 exposes

00:36:47.819 --> 00:36:48.199
 our

00:36:48.199 --> 00:36:48.500
 true

00:36:48.500 --> 00:36:49.079
 convictions

00:36:49.079 --> 00:36:50.379
 as we

00:36:50.379 --> 00:36:50.619
 walk

00:36:50.619 --> 00:36:50.759
 through

00:36:50.759 --> 00:36:51.079
 Romans

00:36:51.079 --> 00:36:51.559
 9

00:36:51.559 --> 00:36:53.000
 we'll

00:36:53.000 --> 00:36:53.139
 be

00:36:53.139 --> 00:36:53.440
 going

00:36:53.440 --> 00:36:53.739
 over

00:36:53.739 --> 00:36:54.119
 what

00:36:54.119 --> 00:36:54.879
 at least

00:36:54.879 --> 00:36:55.219
 we at

00:36:55.219 --> 00:36:55.379
 this

00:36:55.379 --> 00:36:55.619
 church

00:36:55.619 --> 00:36:56.000
 believe

00:36:56.000 --> 00:36:56.199
 and

00:36:56.199 --> 00:36:56.599
 many

00:36:56.599 --> 00:36:56.940
 others

00:36:56.940 --> 00:36:57.219
 but

00:36:57.219 --> 00:36:58.199
 referred

00:36:58.199 --> 00:36:58.420
 to

00:36:58.420 --> 00:36:58.739
 as the

00:36:58.739 --> 00:36:59.239
 doctrines

00:36:59.239 --> 00:36:59.440
 of

00:36:59.440 --> 00:36:59.800
 grace

00:36:59.800 --> 00:37:00.400
 reformed

00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:00.940
 theology

00:37:00.940 --> 00:37:02.239
 Calvinism

00:37:02.239 --> 00:37:03.179
 Augustinianism

00:37:03.179 --> 00:37:03.579
 all kind

00:37:03.579 --> 00:37:03.860
 of saying

00:37:03.860 --> 00:37:04.280
 the same

00:37:04.280 --> 00:37:04.599
 thing

00:37:04.599 --> 00:37:04.840
 but

00:37:04.840 --> 00:37:05.860
 as we

00:37:05.860 --> 00:37:06.039
 do

00:37:06.039 --> 00:37:06.440
 that

00:37:06.440 --> 00:37:07.760
 our

00:37:07.760 --> 00:37:08.119
 burden

00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:08.320
 for

00:37:08.320 --> 00:37:08.780
 loss

00:37:08.780 --> 00:37:08.980
 and

00:37:08.980 --> 00:37:09.360
 perishing

00:37:09.360 --> 00:37:10.059
 souls

00:37:10.059 --> 00:37:11.440
 can be

00:37:11.440 --> 00:37:11.960
 revealing

00:37:11.960 --> 00:37:12.340
 about

00:37:12.340 --> 00:37:12.500
 what

00:37:12.500 --> 00:37:12.639
 we

00:37:12.639 --> 00:37:13.179
 actually

00:37:13.179 --> 00:37:13.760
 believe

00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:14.460
 about

00:37:14.460 --> 00:37:14.719
 those

00:37:14.719 --> 00:37:15.139
 things

00:37:15.139 --> 00:37:16.579
 right

00:37:16.579 --> 00:37:17.820
 if

00:37:17.820 --> 00:37:18.059
 we

00:37:18.059 --> 00:37:19.360
 truly

00:37:19.360 --> 00:37:19.800
 believe

00:37:19.800 --> 00:37:20.019
 versus

00:37:20.019 --> 00:37:20.159
 what

00:37:20.159 --> 00:37:20.300
 we

00:37:20.300 --> 00:37:20.800
 claim

00:37:20.800 --> 00:37:21.179
 to

00:37:21.179 --> 00:37:21.659
 believe

00:37:21.659 --> 00:37:22.920
 and

00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:23.559
 I

00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:23.760
 want

00:37:23.760 --> 00:37:23.900
 to

00:37:23.900 --> 00:37:24.139
 submit

00:37:24.139 --> 00:37:24.260
 to

00:37:24.260 --> 00:37:24.380
 you

00:37:24.380 --> 00:37:24.679
 again

00:37:24.679 --> 00:37:24.860
 that

00:37:24.860 --> 00:37:25.159
 I

00:37:25.159 --> 00:37:26.619
 struggle

00:37:26.619 --> 00:37:26.920
 to

00:37:26.920 --> 00:37:27.059
 get

00:37:27.059 --> 00:37:27.219
 to

00:37:27.219 --> 00:37:27.519
 this

00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:28.159
 level

00:37:28.159 --> 00:37:28.399
 of

00:37:28.399 --> 00:37:28.719
 anguish

00:37:28.719 --> 00:37:29.019
 in my

00:37:29.019 --> 00:37:29.299
 soul

00:37:29.299 --> 00:37:29.659
 for

00:37:29.659 --> 00:37:30.440
 the

00:37:30.440 --> 00:37:30.899
 lost

00:37:30.899 --> 00:37:32.239
 and

00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:32.539
 our

00:37:32.539 --> 00:37:33.000
 attitude

00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:34.099
 should

00:37:34.099 --> 00:37:34.279
 be

00:37:34.279 --> 00:37:34.539
 like

00:37:34.539 --> 00:37:34.960
 Paul's

00:37:34.960 --> 00:37:35.179
 now

00:37:35.179 --> 00:37:36.259
 some

 academic

00:37:39.099 --> 00:37:39.759
 theologian

00:37:39.759 --> 00:37:40.139

00:37:40.139 --> 00:37:40.480
 down

00:37:40.480 --> 00:37:40.679
 with

00:37:40.679 --> 00:37:40.879
 Paul

00:37:40.880 --> 00:37:41.340
 Paul

00:37:41.340 --> 00:37:42.260
 don't

00:37:42.260 --> 00:37:42.280
 don't

00:37:42.280 --> 00:37:42.280


00:37:42.280 --> 00:37:42.420

00:37:42.420 --> 00:37:43.000
 realize

00:37:43.000 --> 00:37:43.240
 that

00:37:43.240 --> 00:37:43.960
 unbelievers

00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:44.200
 are

00:37:44.200 --> 00:37:44.940
 sovereignly

00:37:44.940 --> 00:37:45.619
 in

00:37:45.619 --> 00:37:46.000

00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:47.539
 they're

00:37:47.539 --> 00:37:47.720
 there

00:37:47.720 --> 00:37:48.099

00:37:49.519 --> 00:37:49.700
 mean

00:37:49.700 --> 00:37:50.039
 like

00:37:50.039 --> 00:37:52.579

00:37:52.579 --> 00:37:53.500
 understands

00:37:53.500 --> 00:37:53.800
 that

00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:53.980

00:37:54.940 --> 00:37:55.180
 right

00:37:55.180 --> 00:37:55.800

 that

00:38:46.420 --> 00:38:46.639
 way

00:38:46.639 --> 00:38:46.779
 it

00:38:46.779 --> 00:38:46.900
 is

00:38:46.900 --> 00:38:47.259
 something

00:38:47.259 --> 00:38:47.599
 given

00:38:47.599 --> 00:38:47.839
 to

00:38:47.839 --> 00:38:48.119
 God

00:38:48.119 --> 00:38:48.359
 by

00:38:48.359 --> 00:38:48.579
 his

00:38:48.579 --> 00:38:49.039
 grace

00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:49.759
 it

00:38:49.759 --> 00:38:49.839
 is

00:38:49.839 --> 00:38:50.019
 an

00:38:50.019 --> 00:38:50.559
 overflow

00:38:50.559 --> 00:38:51.079
 of

00:38:51.079 --> 00:38:51.239
 our

00:38:51.239 --> 00:38:51.679
 walk

00:38:51.679 --> 00:38:51.960
 with

00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:52.440
 Christ

00:38:52.440 --> 00:38:53.440
 in

00:38:53.440 --> 00:38:53.900
 love

00:38:53.900 --> 00:38:54.219
 as

00:38:54.219 --> 00:38:54.400
 we

00:38:54.400 --> 00:38:55.279
 imagine

00:38:55.279 --> 00:38:55.920
 ourselves

00:38:55.920 --> 00:38:56.199
 and

00:38:56.199 --> 00:38:56.500
 others

00:38:56.500 --> 00:38:57.059
 approaching

00:38:57.059 --> 00:38:57.339
 that

00:38:57.339 --> 00:38:57.739
 final

00:38:57.739 --> 00:38:58.199
 day

00:38:58.199 --> 00:38:59.839
 so

00:38:59.839 --> 00:38:59.960
 we

00:38:59.960 --> 00:39:00.119
 must

00:39:00.119 --> 00:39:00.420
 ask

00:39:00.420 --> 00:39:00.679
 God

00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:00.839
 to

00:39:00.839 --> 00:39:01.000
 give

00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:01.139
 us

00:39:01.139 --> 00:39:01.480
 that

00:39:01.480 --> 00:39:02.599
 but

00:39:02.599 --> 00:39:02.859
 in

00:39:02.859 --> 00:39:03.259
 closing

00:39:03.259 --> 00:39:03.440
 a

00:39:03.440 --> 00:39:03.699
 very

00:39:03.699 --> 00:39:04.139
 I'll

00:39:04.139 --> 00:39:04.259
 try

00:39:04.259 --> 00:39:04.379
 to

00:39:08.139 --> 00:39:08.920
 I

00:39:08.920 --> 00:39:09.119
 have

00:39:09.119 --> 00:39:09.379
 a

00:39:09.379 --> 00:39:09.599
 lot

00:39:09.599 --> 00:39:09.759
 of

00:39:09.759 --> 00:39:10.000
 them

00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:10.559
 but

00:39:10.559 --> 00:39:11.299
 as

00:39:11.299 --> 00:39:11.579
 someone

00:39:11.579 --> 00:39:11.779
 who

00:39:11.779 --> 00:39:12.139
 loves

00:39:12.139 --> 00:39:12.359
 sharing

00:39:12.359 --> 00:39:12.519
 the

00:39:12.519 --> 00:39:12.859
 gospel

00:39:12.859 --> 00:39:13.099
 who

00:39:13.099 --> 00:39:13.460
 loves

00:39:13.460 --> 00:39:14.500
 connecting

00:39:14.500 --> 00:39:14.739
 with

00:39:14.739 --> 00:39:15.339
 unbelievers

00:39:15.339 --> 00:39:15.639
 and

00:39:15.639 --> 00:39:16.159
 going to

00:39:16.159 --> 00:39:17.319
 weird

00:39:17.319 --> 00:39:17.759
 places

00:39:17.759 --> 00:39:18.179
 to reach

00:39:18.179 --> 00:39:18.579
 people

00:39:18.579 --> 00:39:20.659
 many

00:39:20.659 --> 00:39:21.019
 years

00:39:21.019 --> 00:39:21.259
 ago

00:39:21.259 --> 00:39:21.539
 when this

00:39:21.539 --> 00:39:21.639
 was

00:39:21.639 --> 00:39:21.920
 introduced

00:39:21.920 --> 00:39:22.239
 to me

00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:22.359
 I

00:39:22.359 --> 00:39:22.699
 struggled

00:39:22.699 --> 00:39:22.879
 I

00:39:22.879 --> 00:39:23.019
 was

00:39:23.019 --> 00:39:23.279
 like

00:39:23.279 --> 00:39:24.219
 what

00:39:24.219 --> 00:39:24.339
 is

00:39:24.339 --> 00:39:24.480
 the

00:39:24.480 --> 00:39:24.839
 point

00:39:24.839 --> 00:39:26.019
 if

00:39:26.019 --> 00:39:26.219
 God

00:39:26.219 --> 00:39:26.400
 has

00:39:26.400 --> 00:39:26.500
 a

00:39:26.500 --> 00:39:26.819
 people

00:39:26.819 --> 00:39:28.299
 already

00:39:28.299 --> 00:39:28.739
 chosen

00:39:28.739 --> 00:39:29.219
 for

00:39:29.219 --> 00:39:29.679
 salvation

00:39:29.679 --> 00:39:29.980
 why

00:39:29.980 --> 00:39:30.379
 do

00:39:30.379 --> 00:39:30.539
 we

00:39:30.539 --> 00:39:30.900
 go

00:39:30.900 --> 00:39:31.719
 what

00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:31.839
 does

00:39:31.839 --> 00:39:31.960
 the

00:39:31.960 --> 00:39:32.139
 great

00:39:32.139 --> 00:39:32.519
 commission

00:39:32.519 --> 00:39:33.059
 mean

00:39:33.059 --> 00:39:33.279
 in

00:39:33.279 --> 00:39:33.579
 light

00:39:33.579 --> 00:39:33.759
 of

00:39:33.759 --> 00:39:34.159
 this

00:39:34.159 --> 00:39:35.279
 why

00:39:35.279 --> 00:39:35.440
 is

00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:35.599
 there

00:39:35.599 --> 00:39:35.739
 a

00:39:35.739 --> 00:39:36.139
 need

00:39:36.139 --> 00:39:36.440
 for

00:39:36.440 --> 00:39:36.859
 missions

00:39:36.859 --> 00:39:37.079
 and

00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:37.759
 evangelism

00:39:37.759 --> 00:39:38.559
 genuine

00:39:38.559 --> 00:39:39.119
 questions

00:39:39.119 --> 00:39:39.340
 I

00:39:39.340 --> 00:39:39.480
 was

00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:39.779
 having

00:39:39.779 --> 00:39:40.480
 but

00:39:40.480 --> 00:39:40.699
 again

00:39:40.699 --> 00:39:41.159
 rightly

00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:41.699
 understood

00:39:41.699 --> 00:39:42.139
 this

00:39:42.139 --> 00:39:42.299
 is

00:39:42.299 --> 00:39:42.559
 just

00:39:42.559 --> 00:39:43.420
 catapulted

00:39:43.420 --> 00:39:43.619
 like

00:39:43.619 --> 00:39:43.980
 sprung

00:39:43.980 --> 00:39:44.400
 me

00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:44.940
 forward

00:39:44.940 --> 00:39:45.880
 into

00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:46.179
 more

00:39:46.179 --> 00:39:46.420
 I'm

00:39:46.420 --> 00:39:46.519
 just

00:39:46.519 --> 00:39:46.619
 going

00:39:46.619 --> 00:39:46.639
 to

00:39:46.639 --> 00:39:46.799
 give

00:39:46.799 --> 00:39:46.880
 you

00:39:46.880 --> 00:39:47.159
 one

00:39:47.159 --> 00:39:47.500
 reason

00:39:47.500 --> 00:39:47.719
 right

00:39:47.719 --> 00:39:47.940
 here

00:39:47.940 --> 00:39:48.840
 it's

00:39:48.840 --> 00:39:49.099
 right

00:39:49.099 --> 00:39:49.199
 out

00:39:49.199 --> 00:39:49.239
 of

00:39:49.239 --> 00:39:49.360
 our

00:39:49.360 --> 00:39:49.739
 text

00:39:49.739 --> 00:39:51.059
 Paul

00:39:51.059 --> 00:39:51.659
 desires

00:39:51.659 --> 00:39:51.900
 to

00:39:51.900 --> 00:39:52.079
 go

00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:52.400
 after

00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:52.619
 them

00:39:52.619 --> 00:39:52.759
 and

00:39:52.759 --> 00:39:53.079
 rescue

00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:53.279
 them

00:39:53.279 --> 00:39:53.460
 his

00:39:53.460 --> 00:39:53.779
 heart

00:39:53.779 --> 00:39:54.400
 breaks

00:39:54.400 --> 00:39:55.219
 for

00:39:55.219 --> 00:39:55.659
 those

00:39:55.659 --> 00:39:55.840
 who

00:39:55.840 --> 00:39:55.980
 do

00:39:55.980 --> 00:39:56.239
 not

00:39:56.239 --> 00:39:56.519
 know

00:39:56.519 --> 00:39:57.000
 Jesus

00:39:57.000 --> 00:39:57.920
 as

00:39:57.920 --> 00:39:58.099
 the

00:39:58.099 --> 00:39:58.420
 psalmist

00:39:58.420 --> 00:39:58.639
 said

00:39:58.639 --> 00:39:58.880
 my

00:39:58.880 --> 00:39:59.440
 eyes

00:39:59.440 --> 00:39:59.759
 shed

00:39:59.759 --> 00:40:00.360
 tears

00:40:00.360 --> 00:40:01.719
 of

00:40:01.719 --> 00:40:02.279
 streams

00:40:02.279 --> 00:40:02.759
 because

00:40:02.759 --> 00:40:03.119
 people

00:40:03.119 --> 00:40:03.360
 did

00:40:03.360 --> 00:40:03.679
 not

00:40:03.679 --> 00:40:04.039
 keep

00:40:04.039 --> 00:40:04.219
 your

00:40:07.079 --> 00:40:07.599
 distress

00:40:07.599 --> 00:40:08.019
 for

00:40:08.019 --> 00:40:08.559
 unbelievers

00:40:08.559 --> 00:40:08.819
 was

00:40:08.819 --> 00:40:09.119
 not

00:40:09.119 --> 00:40:09.440
 due

00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:09.579
 to

00:40:09.579 --> 00:40:09.779
 his

00:40:09.779 --> 00:40:10.299
 lack

00:40:10.299 --> 00:40:11.019
 of

00:40:11.019 --> 00:40:11.500
 grasp

00:40:11.500 --> 00:40:11.679
 of

00:40:11.679 --> 00:40:12.019
 God's

00:40:12.019 --> 00:40:12.460
 sovereignty

00:40:12.460 --> 00:40:12.819
 and

00:40:12.819 --> 00:40:13.400
 salvation

00:40:13.400 --> 00:40:14.599
 his

00:40:14.599 --> 00:40:14.980
 distress

00:40:14.980 --> 00:40:15.759
 actually

00:40:15.759 --> 00:40:16.599
 demonstrates

00:40:16.599 --> 00:40:16.860
 how

00:40:16.860 --> 00:40:17.239
 deeply

00:40:17.239 --> 00:40:17.519
 and

00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:17.860
 truly

00:40:17.860 --> 00:40:18.639
 he

00:40:18.639 --> 00:40:19.179
 believes

00:40:19.179 --> 00:40:19.519
 those

00:40:19.519 --> 00:40:19.980
 things

00:40:19.980 --> 00:40:21.079
 so

00:40:21.079 --> 00:40:21.400
 many

00:40:21.400 --> 00:40:21.940
 souls

00:40:21.940 --> 00:40:22.420
 are

00:40:22.420 --> 00:40:22.860
 waiting

00:40:22.860 --> 00:40:24.059
 anxiously

00:40:24.059 --> 00:40:24.679
 for the

00:40:24.679 --> 00:40:25.039
 news

00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:25.199
 that

00:40:25.199 --> 00:40:25.400
 God

00:40:25.400 --> 00:40:25.579
 will

00:40:25.579 --> 00:40:26.099
 use

00:40:26.099 --> 00:40:27.099
 to

00:40:27.099 --> 00:40:27.380
 save

00:40:27.380 --> 00:40:27.559
 their

00:40:27.559 --> 00:40:27.980
 soul

00:40:27.980 --> 00:40:29.159
 so

00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:29.299
 we

00:40:29.299 --> 00:40:29.460
 should

00:40:29.460 --> 00:40:29.639
 go

00:40:29.639 --> 00:40:29.799
 through

00:40:29.799 --> 00:40:30.119
 whatever

00:40:30.119 --> 00:40:30.819
 extreme

00:40:30.819 --> 00:40:31.759
 necessary

 Proverbs

00:40:33.079 --> 00:40:33.599

 verse

00:40:33.920 --> 00:40:34.299
 11

00:40:34.299 --> 00:40:34.659
 says

00:40:34.659 --> 00:40:34.940
 this

00:40:34.940 --> 00:40:35.380
 rescue

00:40:35.380 --> 00:40:35.840
 those

00:40:35.840 --> 00:40:35.980
 who

00:40:35.980 --> 00:40:36.079
 are

 helpless

 pray

 earnestly
