WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:16.300 Mark chapter 1, we are walking with Jesus through the gospel of Mark and you're going to pick up your pace and walk fast because I want you to keep up and mark moves at a rapid pace. 00:00:16.300 --> 00:00:18.600 He covers a lot of ground. 00:00:19.620 --> 00:00:22.280 He told us nothing about the birth of Christ. 00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:27.660 The gospel of Luke tells us most of those details that we have. 00:00:28.840 --> 00:00:31.840 He does not speak of the prophecy of Christ. 00:00:33.100 --> 00:00:36.960 The gospel of Luke again tells us most of that. 00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:42.560 He speaks nothing about the childhood visit to the temple. 00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:45.560 You know who tells us that? 00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:47.500 Luke. 00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:49.359 Luke tells us that. 00:00:50.640 --> 00:01:01.859 Mark begins by telling us about the man who baptized Jesus and then telling us of his baptism and of his temptation in the desert. 00:01:01.859 --> 00:01:07.000 And I call his time in the desert his seminary experience. 00:01:07.140 --> 00:01:10.319 And the reason why I call it that is because of my own experience. 00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:24.059 My seminary experience was a time of a way to focus on God's plan and God's preparation for me for ministry. 00:01:24.060 --> 00:01:26.879 It worked out that way for me. 00:01:27.060 --> 00:01:30.079 Education happens a lot of different ways these days. 00:01:30.219 --> 00:01:33.299 But in those days, we had no internet. 00:01:33.299 --> 00:01:42.280 And so I got in my Honda Civic, packed everything I had and drove 600 miles from my mom and daddy. 00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:45.359 And got to New Orleans. 00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:50.980 And about three weeks in went, why Lord? 00:01:51.320 --> 00:01:51.719 Why? 00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:51.819 Why? 00:01:55.819 --> 00:02:02.840 Because he pulled me away for a time to plan and prepare to learn. 00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:10.460 Six months in, gave me the opportunity to pastor and learn what that process means. 00:02:10.460 --> 00:02:11.680 Or begin to learn. 00:02:11.760 --> 00:02:12.580 I'm still learning. 00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:20.360 So I call it Jesus' seminary experience because before he started his ministry, he went into the desert. 00:02:21.920 --> 00:02:27.460 And faced in those temptations a lot of the things that people would throw at him after that. 00:02:27.659 --> 00:02:30.140 And he was, he had a plan. 00:02:31.520 --> 00:02:32.719 He had prep. 00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:36.719 And he went forward with what God's plan was for his life. 00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:47.219 But when he leaves the desert, Jesus ministers in Judea and in Galilee and in Jerusalem. 00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.439 For somewhere between six months and a year. 00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:54.780 And none of that is covered in Mark. 00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:01.939 As a matter of fact, the only gospel that we have that covers that is John chapter 2 through John chapter 4. 00:03:01.939 --> 00:03:06.859 That's where you find Jesus going to the wedding at Cana. 00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.300 Turning the water into wine. 00:03:10.259 --> 00:03:11.859 He goes into Jerusalem. 00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:16.280 He meets Nicodemus at night. 00:03:17.900 --> 00:03:21.680 He meets the Samaritan woman at the well. 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:24.599 All of that happens. 00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:26.879 John records it. 00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:30.439 No one else records it in Scripture. 00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:37.620 And so that up to a year is considered the year of obscurity for Christ. 00:03:37.699 --> 00:03:43.759 Because we know little about it except for a few conversations along the way. 00:03:44.359 --> 00:03:47.500 Our knowledge is just not as complete about that. 00:03:48.639 --> 00:03:53.099 We do know that during that period, after Jesus' baptism, 00:03:53.099 --> 00:03:57.639 that John, the one that baptized him, was arrested. 00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:03.439 Sometimes six months to a year after the baptism of Jesus, 00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:08.000 John is arrested and he will lose his life in prison. 00:04:09.079 --> 00:04:11.500 And now Christ begins his ministry. 00:04:12.500 --> 00:04:16.100 And begins calling his disciples to follow him. 00:04:16.100 --> 00:04:23.540 And I want you to notice a trend or look for a trend in our passage this morning. 00:04:24.280 --> 00:04:28.700 It's in Mark chapter 1, beginning in verse 14, it says this. 00:04:28.699 --> 00:04:35.959 Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming the gospel of God 00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:40.920 and saying, the time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is at hand. 00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:42.920 Repent and believe in the gospel. 00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:48.919 Passing alongside the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, 00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:51.839 casting a net into the sea for they were fishermen. 00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:58.879 And Jesus said to them, follow me and I'll make you become fishers of men. 00:04:59.419 --> 00:05:05.179 And going on a little further, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, 00:05:05.879 --> 00:05:09.079 who were in their boats, mending their nets. 00:05:09.739 --> 00:05:15.219 And immediately he called them and they left their father Zebedee in the boat 00:05:15.219 --> 00:05:19.419 with the hired servants and followed him. 00:05:19.420 --> 00:05:25.540 He says in the beginning of this passage that he is proclaiming the gospel of God. 00:05:25.980 --> 00:05:29.740 The euangelion, it's the Greek term, the euangelion of God. 00:05:29.860 --> 00:05:37.720 And the reason why I bring that up is because that term became kind of popular with Caesar Augustus 00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:39.060 about himself. 00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:41.840 It's the euangelion of Caesar Augustus. 00:05:41.900 --> 00:05:44.420 He liked to talk about the good news of himself. 00:05:44.420 --> 00:05:51.540 And so Mark, about that same time frame, is trying to clarify, I'm not talking about Caesar here. 00:05:52.259 --> 00:05:59.100 I'm talking about the real gospel, the real good news, the real euangelion, and that is God. 00:05:59.180 --> 00:06:00.100 It's about God. 00:06:00.379 --> 00:06:07.620 And so he establishes the difference in that by saying that he came proclaiming the gospel of God. 00:06:07.700 --> 00:06:09.240 Now what is the gospel? 00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:20.579 Well, the gospel is the proclamation and the demonstration of the good news that Christ has come to save us from our sins 00:06:20.579 --> 00:06:28.620 both now and for eternity and that if we'll repent of our sins and we'll trust Christ as our Savior 00:06:28.620 --> 00:06:37.620 and live for him from this day forward, for his honor and his glory, we'll spend eternity with him. 00:06:37.620 --> 00:06:46.959 Everything will change instantly when you follow Christ immediately. 00:06:48.379 --> 00:06:51.500 And that's the gospel, the real gospel. 00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:54.660 Luke tells us more. 00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:56.160 Mark's very succinct. 00:06:56.959 --> 00:07:02.399 He just says that Christ said the time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is at hand. 00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:03.459 Repent and believe in the gospel. 00:07:03.939 --> 00:07:06.819 But listen to how Luke describes that scene. 00:07:06.819 --> 00:07:09.259 It's in Luke chapter 4 verse 16. 00:07:09.379 --> 00:07:09.800 It says this, 00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:17.699 And Jesus came to Nazareth where he had been brought up, and as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:20.100 and he stood up to read. 00:07:21.159 --> 00:07:24.680 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. 00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.839 He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, 00:07:28.579 --> 00:07:30.539 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, 00:07:31.060 --> 00:07:34.620 because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. 00:07:34.620 --> 00:07:39.920 For he has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, 00:07:40.180 --> 00:07:48.000 to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor. 00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:56.439 And he rolled up the scroll, and he gave it back to the attendant, and he sat down. 00:07:57.819 --> 00:08:02.019 And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. 00:08:02.019 --> 00:08:05.319 And he began to say to them, 00:08:05.579 --> 00:08:13.680 Today, this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing. 00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:16.560 And all spoke well of him, 00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:21.060 and marveled at the gracious words that were coming from his mouth. 00:08:21.740 --> 00:08:23.019 And they said, 00:08:23.219 --> 00:08:26.240 Is not this Joseph's son? 00:08:27.139 --> 00:08:29.120 I want you to get this scene. 00:08:29.299 --> 00:08:30.079 It's fabulous. 00:08:30.079 --> 00:08:34.379 Jesus went to his home synagogue. 00:08:34.939 --> 00:08:35.519 They knew him. 00:08:37.100 --> 00:08:38.799 And he takes up the scroll, 00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:42.960 and he reads Isaiah. 00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:45.899 I mentioned this a couple of weeks ago, I believe. 00:08:46.019 --> 00:08:46.779 But Isaiah, 00:08:48.220 --> 00:08:50.840 there's two prophets that really stand out. 00:08:51.899 --> 00:08:53.379 One of them is Elijah. 00:08:53.620 --> 00:08:56.220 Elijah's kind of the prophet of prophets of sorts. 00:08:56.220 --> 00:09:01.340 But there's things written about Elijah, but Elijah didn't write them. 00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:05.620 But Isaiah wrote extensively. 00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:09.580 His prophecies are extensive. 00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:14.360 And it is not only the largest book of prophecy that we have in Scripture, 00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:16.279 but it is the most popular. 00:09:16.460 --> 00:09:17.960 It was in the first century, 00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:20.160 and it's well known today. 00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:22.120 But they really thought a lot of Isaiah. 00:09:22.259 --> 00:09:24.219 And so for him to speak of Isaiah, 00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:27.139 and to read from Isaiah, 00:09:27.139 --> 00:09:29.439 he's got everybody's attention. 00:09:31.699 --> 00:09:33.219 He reads Isaiah, 00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:35.379 and then he says, 00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:38.779 I am fulfilling this Scripture now. 00:09:38.779 --> 00:09:39.919 And he drops the mic. 00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:42.759 I mean, it's that kind of moment, folks. 00:09:43.500 --> 00:09:44.199 It is. 00:09:45.500 --> 00:09:47.019 And they were amazed. 00:09:47.980 --> 00:09:49.299 And they were affirmative. 00:09:50.379 --> 00:09:51.980 And they were blown away. 00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:54.679 And they were thinking, 00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:56.339 this is our hometown boy. 00:09:57.459 --> 00:09:58.399 Listen to him. 00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:00.539 That's Joseph's son. 00:10:03.819 --> 00:10:05.679 And then he started talking some more. 00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:10.539 And by the time Jesus got done speaking in the synagogue, 00:10:10.719 --> 00:10:11.579 they wanted to kill him. 00:10:13.719 --> 00:10:16.879 But he kept ministering to them and around them. 00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:22.120 All Mark says about that is that Christ said, 00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:23.299 the time is fulfilled. 00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:25.319 The kingdom of God is at hand. 00:10:26.019 --> 00:10:27.659 Repent and believe in the gospel. 00:10:28.719 --> 00:10:29.879 Listen, he's very succinct. 00:10:30.059 --> 00:10:31.439 If Mark was preaching today, 00:10:31.620 --> 00:10:32.519 you'd get out early. 00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:34.539 But he's not. 00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:39.379 He then passed by the sea. 00:10:40.039 --> 00:10:42.799 And he calls Simon and Andrew. 00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:46.319 Now, what Mark does not speak of 00:10:46.319 --> 00:10:48.599 is the ministry and the teaching 00:10:48.599 --> 00:10:51.139 that Christ did over the months 00:10:51.139 --> 00:10:52.219 that are not covered. 00:10:53.239 --> 00:10:54.159 And the reality is, 00:10:54.259 --> 00:10:54.979 in John 1, 00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:57.059 it tells us that Simon Peter 00:10:57.059 --> 00:10:58.739 and his brother Andrew 00:10:58.739 --> 00:11:00.319 spent a day with Jesus 00:11:00.319 --> 00:11:03.979 before he walked by the lake that day. 00:11:03.980 --> 00:11:05.840 And so they knew him. 00:11:06.539 --> 00:11:08.200 And they knew he was the Messiah. 00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:09.620 They were familiar with him. 00:11:10.460 --> 00:11:11.639 And then one day, 00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:14.180 while they were busy doing their jobs, 00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:15.139 he walked by. 00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:18.899 And when he walked by them, 00:11:19.019 --> 00:11:21.680 as well as James and John, 00:11:21.779 --> 00:11:22.899 the sons of Zebedee, 00:11:22.899 --> 00:11:25.959 when he walked by, 00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:29.579 those four men's response 00:11:29.579 --> 00:11:31.659 are a great example for us 00:11:31.659 --> 00:11:33.159 to know how to respond 00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:35.019 when Jesus walks by, 00:11:35.340 --> 00:11:37.059 when Jesus speaks to us. 00:11:37.860 --> 00:11:39.539 And I want you to get that today. 00:11:39.539 --> 00:11:43.980 When Jesus walks by, 00:11:45.579 --> 00:11:47.399 respond immediately. 00:11:48.500 --> 00:11:48.959 Immediately. 00:11:49.759 --> 00:11:52.019 I'm always struck by the immediacy 00:11:52.019 --> 00:11:53.259 of their response. 00:11:54.059 --> 00:11:56.219 Both Simon Peter and his brother Andrew 00:11:56.219 --> 00:11:57.779 dropped what they were doing 00:11:57.779 --> 00:12:00.659 and followed Jesus immediately. 00:12:00.659 --> 00:12:05.279 Now, there's a difference 00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:07.000 in delayed obedience 00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:09.740 and immediate obedience. 00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:13.159 If you leave here today 00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:17.120 and you are driving toward a traffic light 00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:18.500 and it turns yellow 00:12:18.500 --> 00:12:23.779 and you intend to obey, 00:12:24.299 --> 00:12:25.419 but you delay, 00:12:26.220 --> 00:12:28.519 you're going to do one of two things. 00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:30.899 One is you're going to goose it, 00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:31.419 all right, 00:12:31.460 --> 00:12:33.199 and hope you beat the red one 00:12:33.199 --> 00:12:34.419 and you probably won't. 00:12:35.340 --> 00:12:37.179 Or either you're going to stop too late 00:12:37.179 --> 00:12:37.919 and you're going to stop 00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:38.980 in the middle of the intersection, 00:12:39.579 --> 00:12:39.860 okay? 00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:41.340 I'll confess, 00:12:41.539 --> 00:12:42.319 I've done both, 00:12:42.699 --> 00:12:43.120 all right? 00:12:43.659 --> 00:12:45.399 But the reality is 00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:46.559 delayed obedience 00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:48.559 is the same as disobedience 00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:50.220 because that's not what they intended 00:12:50.220 --> 00:12:51.439 when they put a red light there. 00:12:52.460 --> 00:12:55.039 If my children were told 00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:57.279 to make up their beds 00:12:57.279 --> 00:12:58.220 when they were growing up 00:12:58.220 --> 00:12:59.300 and four hours later 00:12:59.300 --> 00:13:00.440 their beds were not made, 00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:03.100 that's not delayed obedience. 00:13:04.660 --> 00:13:06.060 That's disobedience. 00:13:07.340 --> 00:13:08.740 And the reality is 00:13:08.740 --> 00:13:10.540 when God convicts us 00:13:10.540 --> 00:13:12.740 about doing what we're doing 00:13:12.740 --> 00:13:16.100 and we continue to do that, 00:13:16.660 --> 00:13:19.180 even if it's just for a little while longer, 00:13:20.620 --> 00:13:23.240 that's not delayed obedience. 00:13:23.240 --> 00:13:23.519 That's disobedience. 00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:26.460 That's disobedience. 00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:28.820 It's disobedience 00:13:28.820 --> 00:13:30.560 and it does not honor God. 00:13:31.680 --> 00:13:33.879 When God tells us 00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:35.120 to act 00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:38.399 and we wait a while on it, 00:13:39.659 --> 00:13:42.019 that's disobedience. 00:13:43.019 --> 00:13:44.539 And the reality is 00:13:44.539 --> 00:13:46.060 when you read God's Word, 00:13:46.059 --> 00:13:49.839 and I read God's Word 00:13:49.839 --> 00:13:50.439 every morning, 00:13:51.059 --> 00:13:51.859 usually chapters 00:13:51.859 --> 00:13:52.859 of God's Word, 00:13:53.500 --> 00:13:54.779 and I'm looking 00:13:54.779 --> 00:13:56.859 for one verse. 00:13:57.079 --> 00:13:58.699 God, give me one verse today 00:13:58.699 --> 00:14:00.899 where you speak volumes to me. 00:14:01.899 --> 00:14:03.659 Help that to be inspiring 00:14:03.659 --> 00:14:04.779 for other people as well, 00:14:04.859 --> 00:14:05.919 but Lord, more importantly, 00:14:06.439 --> 00:14:07.759 speak to me 00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:09.119 through that. 00:14:09.339 --> 00:14:09.899 Show me 00:14:09.899 --> 00:14:11.819 what you'd have me to know. 00:14:11.820 --> 00:14:13.900 And 00:14:13.900 --> 00:14:18.100 God gives me a verse. 00:14:18.260 --> 00:14:18.840 I keep digging 00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:19.660 until I find it, 00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:19.980 but 00:14:19.980 --> 00:14:23.580 very seldom 00:14:23.580 --> 00:14:26.920 do the lights cut on 00:14:26.920 --> 00:14:27.680 and 00:14:27.680 --> 00:14:30.180 my heart palpitate 00:14:30.180 --> 00:14:30.520 and 00:14:30.520 --> 00:14:32.460 I just feel like 00:14:32.460 --> 00:14:33.480 that my whole day 00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:34.379 has been changed 00:14:34.379 --> 00:14:34.840 because 00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:36.120 He's revealed something 00:14:36.120 --> 00:14:36.920 to me I've never seen. 00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:40.460 And I pray daily 00:14:40.460 --> 00:14:43.540 and I ask God 00:14:43.540 --> 00:14:44.440 to give me direction 00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:45.180 and guidance 00:14:45.180 --> 00:14:46.540 and I ask it for my family 00:14:46.540 --> 00:14:48.240 and I ask it for this church 00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:48.580 and I 00:14:48.580 --> 00:14:50.019 pray over the matters 00:14:50.019 --> 00:14:50.540 that are dealing 00:14:50.540 --> 00:14:51.139 with, 00:14:51.180 --> 00:14:51.700 you're dealing with 00:14:51.700 --> 00:14:52.300 in your life 00:14:52.300 --> 00:14:53.400 that you bother to share 00:14:53.400 --> 00:14:53.800 and 00:14:53.800 --> 00:14:56.280 very seldom 00:14:56.280 --> 00:14:58.360 is there something 00:14:58.360 --> 00:14:59.220 that just seems 00:14:59.220 --> 00:14:59.980 earth-shattering 00:14:59.980 --> 00:15:01.080 that I've got to get up 00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:01.700 and go do 00:15:01.700 --> 00:15:02.820 immediately. 00:15:03.040 --> 00:15:03.800 But it happens. 00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:06.639 It happens. 00:15:08.160 --> 00:15:09.019 And there's times 00:15:09.019 --> 00:15:09.840 when God gives me 00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:10.560 a passage of Scripture 00:15:10.560 --> 00:15:11.780 it just burns 00:15:11.780 --> 00:15:12.540 in my heart 00:15:12.540 --> 00:15:15.540 as if before 00:15:15.540 --> 00:15:16.180 the foundations 00:15:16.180 --> 00:15:16.800 of the earth 00:15:16.800 --> 00:15:17.420 and before I was 00:15:17.420 --> 00:15:18.060 ever thought of 00:15:18.060 --> 00:15:18.860 by anybody else 00:15:18.860 --> 00:15:19.540 except God 00:15:19.540 --> 00:15:21.700 that God had established 00:15:21.700 --> 00:15:22.540 that I would read 00:15:22.540 --> 00:15:23.580 that verse that day 00:15:23.580 --> 00:15:24.480 for what was going on 00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:25.100 in my life 00:15:25.100 --> 00:15:25.820 at that time. 00:15:29.560 --> 00:15:30.740 And when you have 00:15:30.740 --> 00:15:31.399 one of those 00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:32.399 type moments 00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:34.600 you need to pay 00:15:34.600 --> 00:15:35.360 attention to it. 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:38.879 when God speaks 00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:41.519 to your circumstances 00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:43.519 not generally 00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:46.060 but specifically 00:15:46.060 --> 00:15:49.200 you need to respond 00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:51.560 immediately. 00:15:51.560 --> 00:15:54.100 And when Jesus 00:15:54.100 --> 00:15:55.000 looked at them 00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:55.740 and said 00:15:55.740 --> 00:15:57.259 come follow me 00:15:57.259 --> 00:16:01.180 they went. 00:16:01.179 --> 00:16:04.639 they responded 00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:05.239 immediately. 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:08.719 Second thing 00:16:08.719 --> 00:16:09.979 is they put 00:16:09.979 --> 00:16:11.239 Christ first. 00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:12.779 And that's what 00:16:12.779 --> 00:16:13.399 we must do 00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:14.479 is put Christ first. 00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:16.500 It is easy 00:16:16.500 --> 00:16:17.219 to put something 00:16:17.219 --> 00:16:18.179 else before Christ. 00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:19.000 It is natural 00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:19.899 for us to do that. 00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:21.819 It's human nature 00:16:21.819 --> 00:16:22.500 for us to do that 00:16:22.500 --> 00:16:23.379 but beyond that 00:16:23.379 --> 00:16:24.419 we're born into sin 00:16:24.419 --> 00:16:25.319 and even if we 00:16:25.319 --> 00:16:26.079 wasn't born into sin 00:16:26.079 --> 00:16:26.779 we were sinners. 00:16:27.259 --> 00:16:28.099 We'd have messed up 00:16:28.099 --> 00:16:28.679 if we weren't born 00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:29.099 into sin 00:16:29.100 --> 00:16:29.860 but we are born 00:16:29.860 --> 00:16:30.200 into sin 00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:30.820 so we're better 00:16:30.820 --> 00:16:31.620 at messing up. 00:16:31.940 --> 00:16:32.680 So now we've got 00:16:32.680 --> 00:16:34.100 a nature about us 00:16:34.100 --> 00:16:35.100 as well as a sin 00:16:35.100 --> 00:16:36.159 nature about us 00:16:36.159 --> 00:16:37.279 that is contrary 00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:37.920 to what God 00:16:37.920 --> 00:16:38.740 would have us to do. 00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:39.820 It is natural 00:16:39.820 --> 00:16:40.440 for us 00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:41.420 to put God 00:16:41.420 --> 00:16:42.779 second in our life. 00:16:43.040 --> 00:16:43.600 We can come up 00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:44.820 with all kinds 00:16:44.820 --> 00:16:45.379 of reason 00:16:45.379 --> 00:16:46.920 to put Christ off 00:16:46.920 --> 00:16:47.740 instead of 00:16:47.740 --> 00:16:48.820 put him first. 00:16:49.500 --> 00:16:50.440 And they could have too. 00:16:50.879 --> 00:16:51.460 They had stuff 00:16:51.460 --> 00:16:52.399 in their lives as well. 00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:52.980 They were busy 00:16:52.980 --> 00:16:54.080 as a matter of fact. 00:16:54.340 --> 00:16:54.940 At the time 00:16:54.940 --> 00:16:55.720 he came by 00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:57.120 they had businesses 00:16:57.120 --> 00:16:58.480 and they had assets 00:16:58.480 --> 00:16:59.759 in that business. 00:17:01.259 --> 00:17:02.240 And Simon and Andrew 00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:04.799 left their nets. 00:17:05.980 --> 00:17:07.200 James and John 00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:08.680 had a family business. 00:17:09.259 --> 00:17:10.299 I think it was called 00:17:10.299 --> 00:17:11.339 Zebedee and Sons 00:17:11.339 --> 00:17:12.160 Fish Supply. 00:17:14.120 --> 00:17:15.200 They had people 00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:16.220 working under them 00:17:16.220 --> 00:17:17.059 in their boat 00:17:17.059 --> 00:17:17.720 which means they had 00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:18.700 a decent sized boat 00:17:18.700 --> 00:17:19.220 as well. 00:17:20.579 --> 00:17:21.779 They had it going on. 00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:24.279 And they left it 00:17:24.279 --> 00:17:25.799 and they went 00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:26.400 with the Lord. 00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:29.519 Most Christ followers 00:17:29.519 --> 00:17:30.920 don't have to give up 00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:31.540 their job. 00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:33.640 And there's evidence 00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:34.600 that these men 00:17:34.600 --> 00:17:35.920 continued fishing as well. 00:17:36.180 --> 00:17:38.259 But if so 00:17:38.259 --> 00:17:40.000 they never let that 00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:40.900 get in the way 00:17:40.900 --> 00:17:42.519 of their service 00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:43.320 to the Lord. 00:17:44.900 --> 00:17:45.880 And the reality is 00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:46.200 some people 00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:46.680 don't want to make 00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:47.300 any changes 00:17:47.300 --> 00:17:48.160 in their lifestyle. 00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:49.920 I mean God 00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:50.640 I want to be obedient 00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:51.340 but I don't want you 00:17:51.340 --> 00:17:51.920 I don't want to change 00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:52.460 a thing. 00:17:52.460 --> 00:17:55.380 I've got my plans 00:17:55.380 --> 00:17:57.579 and I don't care 00:17:57.579 --> 00:17:58.279 to change them. 00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:01.340 Let me tell you 00:18:01.340 --> 00:18:01.720 something. 00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:05.079 You follow Christ 00:18:05.079 --> 00:18:07.360 it'll change your plans. 00:18:09.940 --> 00:18:11.200 He'll disrupt 00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:13.220 your circumstances. 00:18:14.700 --> 00:18:16.039 He'll change your plans. 00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:18.319 Don't wait 00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:19.639 to be obedient 00:18:19.639 --> 00:18:22.059 because you want 00:18:22.059 --> 00:18:22.920 to get things 00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:23.599 in your life 00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:24.720 straight first. 00:18:26.399 --> 00:18:27.319 I've got news 00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:27.799 for you. 00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:30.659 You're never 00:18:30.659 --> 00:18:31.960 going to get 00:18:31.960 --> 00:18:32.839 everything straight. 00:18:34.399 --> 00:18:35.359 It's life. 00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:36.859 You're not going 00:18:36.859 --> 00:18:37.319 to do it. 00:18:38.200 --> 00:18:38.579 And if you're 00:18:38.579 --> 00:18:39.220 putting off 00:18:39.220 --> 00:18:39.879 being obedient 00:18:39.879 --> 00:18:40.480 to God 00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:41.119 until you get 00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:41.879 all your ducks 00:18:41.879 --> 00:18:42.460 in a row 00:18:42.460 --> 00:18:43.500 your ducks 00:18:43.500 --> 00:18:45.099 will waddle 00:18:45.099 --> 00:18:45.659 away 00:18:45.659 --> 00:18:47.559 on a random 00:18:47.559 --> 00:18:48.039 basis 00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:49.319 and you'll never 00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:50.099 get it straight. 00:18:50.500 --> 00:18:51.039 When God 00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:52.459 reveals to us 00:18:52.459 --> 00:18:53.219 the moment 00:18:53.219 --> 00:18:54.119 that he does 00:18:54.119 --> 00:18:54.919 we must 00:18:54.919 --> 00:18:55.699 immediately 00:18:55.699 --> 00:18:57.079 follow Christ. 00:18:58.399 --> 00:18:58.879 Thankfully 00:18:58.879 --> 00:19:00.339 he takes us
