WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.719
 Father, we remember the gospel and then we forget the gospel.

00:00:06.520 --> 00:00:09.820
 We trust in the gospel and then we start to trust in ourselves.

00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:14.919
 We think that you have paid it all and then we think we have to pay it.

00:00:15.040 --> 00:00:20.160
 Father, we are confused and we need your help.

00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:23.760
 So Father, thank you for Jesus. Thank you for the gospel.

00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:28.480
 Father, we ask that the Holy Spirit would bring the gospel home to us

00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:30.500
 in a new and powerful way this morning

00:00:30.500 --> 00:00:34.960
 and that your Holy Spirit would continually bring the gospel home

00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:36.840
 to the very center of who we are.

00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:40.920
 And we ask this in the name of Jesus, your Son and our Savior. Amen.

00:00:41.380 --> 00:00:42.140
 Please be seated.

00:00:44.380 --> 00:00:48.000
 So I'm going to confess something to you all.

00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:49.640
 I'm going to share something as a confession.

00:00:50.299 --> 00:00:53.240
 And I'm confessing this or sharing this with you

00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:55.859
 and I don't want you to say anything about it afterwards.

00:00:55.859 --> 00:00:58.859
 Like I'm not fishing for a compliment.

00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:01.380
 Like I'm really not fishing for a compliment.

00:01:01.519 --> 00:01:02.240
 It's a confession.

00:01:03.179 --> 00:01:09.019
 So last Sunday, I think I preached one of the worst sermons I've preached in years.

00:01:09.659 --> 00:01:11.680
 That's why I don't want you to say anything about it.

00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:12.379
 You know, I don't want you to say,

00:01:12.420 --> 00:01:15.159
 No, George, that wasn't bad or that was good.

00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:16.140
 I don't want you to say anything about it.

00:01:16.140 --> 00:01:18.680
 I just want to confess to you what's going on in my mind.

00:01:18.680 --> 00:01:23.140
 So actually in the sermon last week, I was thinking to myself,

00:01:23.260 --> 00:01:26.180
 I made a big mistake saying I was going to preach this week.

00:01:26.720 --> 00:01:28.100
 I was really jet lagged.

00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:29.940
 I hadn't realized how jet lagged I was.

00:01:30.020 --> 00:01:34.000
 It felt as if I didn't have a brain, but I had cotton candy between my ears.

00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:37.000
 And I got my order mixed.

00:01:37.140 --> 00:01:41.560
 I wasn't able to finish my preparation to the extent I wanted.

00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:45.080
 And while I was preaching, I lost my place in my notes.

00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:48.739
 So I was standing up here feeling absolutely terrible,

00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:52.039
 thinking this is a really bad sermon.

00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:54.299
 How do I get out of it gracefully?

00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:58.859
 And even as I was going home, I was just thinking about how bad a sermon it was.

00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:01.659
 My wife, she is so lovely.

00:02:02.259 --> 00:02:05.900
 I shared with her later on how bad I thought the sermon was.

00:02:05.980 --> 00:02:07.640
 And she's so lovely because she could have said,

00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:09.000
 George, that wasn't your worst sermon.

00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:11.120
 Gosh, there's been a lot of worse ones that you've said,

00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:13.860
 preached over the last couple of weeks.

00:02:13.860 --> 00:02:15.200
 She didn't say anything.

00:02:15.340 --> 00:02:16.340
 She just listened.

00:02:17.160 --> 00:02:20.460
 And I said to her, one of the nice things about being jet lagged is,

00:02:20.820 --> 00:02:24.260
 if I hadn't been jet lagged, I would have been depressed about it.

00:02:24.620 --> 00:02:29.020
 But because I was jet lagged, I was too tired to be depressed about how bad my sermon was.

00:02:29.500 --> 00:02:32.200
 But I still felt I'd really done a very, very bad job.

00:02:32.220 --> 00:02:35.380
 And I did feel bad in my own jet lagged type of way.

00:02:36.220 --> 00:02:40.020
 And I'm sharing this with you because it has a, it's a very, I mean,

00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:42.560
 every single one of us struggles with failure.

00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:47.199
 And I, and one of the hard things sometimes for a minister is that

00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:50.960
 when I feel like I fail, sometimes I fail in front of people.

00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:54.879
 Like today, if I fail, it's just in front of 40 or 50 or 60 of you,

00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:56.120
 but sometimes it's a lot more.

00:02:56.180 --> 00:02:57.340
 And that can be a hard thing.

00:02:57.860 --> 00:03:00.199
 It's actually one of the things you can pray for a pastor

00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:01.740
 and pray for a worship leader as well,

00:03:01.780 --> 00:03:04.099
 who sometimes can go home afterwards and thinking,

00:03:04.300 --> 00:03:08.420
 gosh, I wish I could dial that back and do it all over again or whatever.

00:03:08.419 --> 00:03:14.280
 So, but the scripture text today that we're, it's our memory text for the week.

00:03:14.339 --> 00:03:19.079
 It's a very, very powerful text for you to memorize for those of us who struggle with failure.

00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:25.319
 So Andrew, if you could put the text up on the screen, it's at Jude chapter 20, at Jude chapter 24.

00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:27.519
 There's Jude 24 and 25.

00:03:27.699 --> 00:03:28.739
 Jude is a short book.

00:03:28.779 --> 00:03:30.039
 It only has 25 verses.

00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:33.979
 And that's why there's no chapter in front of it.

00:03:34.019 --> 00:03:35.060
 They just list the verses.

00:03:35.900 --> 00:03:38.379
 And here is the text.

00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:41.180
 And I'd like you to read it with me out loud.

00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:46.180
 Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling

00:03:46.180 --> 00:03:51.899
 and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy,

00:03:51.900 --> 00:03:56.460
 to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ, our Lord,

00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:03.640
 be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority before all time and now and forever.

00:04:04.219 --> 00:04:04.620
 Amen.

00:04:05.140 --> 00:04:07.040
 It's a very, very, I have to confess,

00:04:07.379 --> 00:04:10.719
 I think this is the third week we've been doing these one verse sermons.

00:04:11.540 --> 00:04:15.819
 And I had a hard time memorizing this because there's lots of bits and pieces to it.

00:04:16.399 --> 00:04:20.000
 I think I could tell you what it's about, but I don't know if I could memorize it bang on.

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:23.519
 But it's a very, very deep text, a very, very beautiful text,

00:04:23.660 --> 00:04:28.160
 and it's a powerful text for those of us who struggle with failure at different times.

00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:31.079
 Why don't we just read it together again one more time,

00:04:31.120 --> 00:04:34.920
 and then we'll look at how it addresses specifically what I was just sharing with you

00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:38.000
 about how I felt about last week's sermon.

00:04:38.180 --> 00:04:39.899
 So do you read it out loud with me again, please?

00:04:40.420 --> 00:04:44.000
 Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling

00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:49.259
 and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy,

00:04:49.259 --> 00:04:54.019
 to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ, our Lord,

00:04:54.539 --> 00:05:01.120
 be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority before all time and now and forever.

00:05:01.719 --> 00:05:02.159
 Amen.

00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:06.399
 So, you know, if you look at this text, what is this text?

00:05:07.300 --> 00:05:11.199
 Here's the thing, which one of the many things that really jumps out at me about this text.

00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:12.399
 It says at the beginning,

00:05:12.539 --> 00:05:18.099
 Now to him, that's God, who is able to keep you from stumbling,

00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:22.000
 and the image there is that not only will I not stumble,

00:05:22.180 --> 00:05:28.139
 but that when I actually stand in the presence of God on the last day,

00:05:28.259 --> 00:05:30.399
 it won't be that as soon as I get into God's presence,

00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.379
 I'm sort of falling and falling on my face.

00:05:33.379 --> 00:05:38.959
 It has this image, the stumbling image also has this image that he'll stop you from being ruined.

00:05:40.019 --> 00:05:43.639
 And God is the one who has the power and the ability,

00:05:44.180 --> 00:05:49.719
 only God, to make me actually, to make sure that I don't fall into ruination,

00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:52.560
 I don't fall and damage and hurt myself.

00:05:52.699 --> 00:05:57.339
 God, and only God is the one who is able to make me actually stand in his presence,

00:05:57.339 --> 00:06:01.859
 not cower, and that when I stand in his presence,

00:06:01.979 --> 00:06:04.079
 and when you stand in his presence,

00:06:04.799 --> 00:06:07.039
 that we'll stand before him blameless,

00:06:07.679 --> 00:06:09.799
 and we'll be in the presence of his glory,

00:06:09.979 --> 00:06:11.639
 and there will be great joy.

00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:13.060
 There will be great joy in me,

00:06:13.159 --> 00:06:15.079
 there will be great joy amongst the angels,

00:06:15.579 --> 00:06:18.559
 and I don't just stand before God in his presence,

00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:20.479
 the presence of his glory all by myself,

00:06:20.479 --> 00:06:24.039
 but I stand with others who have been redeemed by Jesus,

00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:27.580
 and we stand in God's presence blameless,

00:06:28.140 --> 00:06:32.060
 and it's like everybody is just hooping and hollering,

00:06:32.280 --> 00:06:35.160
 standing ovation, songs of praises.

00:06:37.379 --> 00:06:41.379
 That's this picture of God, of what he does.

00:06:42.540 --> 00:06:44.320
 So if you could put up the first point, Andrew,

00:06:45.180 --> 00:06:46.120
 here's the thing.

00:06:46.900 --> 00:06:51.120
 You cannot add or subtract to what Jesus accomplished for you.

00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:57.660
 You cannot add or subtract to what Jesus has accomplished for you.

00:06:58.420 --> 00:07:04.519
 You see, on one level, what the gospel says is this,

00:07:04.840 --> 00:07:07.759
 that God sees my great profound need,

00:07:08.280 --> 00:07:10.920
 and when he sees my great profound need,

00:07:11.259 --> 00:07:12.939
 he sends his son,

00:07:13.420 --> 00:07:15.879
 and his son takes upon himself

00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:20.300
 all of the demands of justice that people might have about you,

00:07:20.300 --> 00:07:22.379
 that especially if they knew all of your secrets

00:07:22.379 --> 00:07:24.199
 and knew everything that you'd ever done in your life,

00:07:24.300 --> 00:07:28.120
 and if everybody knew every single thing that you'd ever done

00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:29.860
 and every single thing that you'd ever thought

00:07:29.860 --> 00:07:31.920
 and everything that you could have done but you didn't do

00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:33.960
 and everything that you could have thought but you didn't think,

00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:36.060
 and if people knew that,

00:07:36.139 --> 00:07:39.500
 there'd be a demand that there'd be some consequence to you.

00:07:40.259 --> 00:07:42.420
 And the gospel is this good news

00:07:42.420 --> 00:07:45.740
 that God knows every secret of every heart,

00:07:45.740 --> 00:07:48.400
 and nothing is hid from its sight,

00:07:48.400 --> 00:07:53.540
 and he saw our inability to actually pay for that,

00:07:53.699 --> 00:07:55.120
 to make that right.

00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:58.980
 The demands of justice would unmake us

00:07:58.980 --> 00:08:02.759
 because we just literally could not pay

00:08:02.759 --> 00:08:06.780
 and make restitution for everything that we've done,

00:08:06.860 --> 00:08:08.980
 and God saw that that was the case,

00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:10.460
 and he sends his son,

00:08:10.459 --> 00:08:12.979
 and when Jesus dies upon the cross,

00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:14.879
 Jesus, in a sense,

00:08:15.299 --> 00:08:17.500
 not in a very, very real and true sense,

00:08:17.839 --> 00:08:18.599
 he is saying,

00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:20.739
 all of the demands of justice, George,

00:08:20.799 --> 00:08:21.979
 that should fall upon you,

00:08:22.039 --> 00:08:23.019
 that will unmake you,

00:08:23.180 --> 00:08:26.599
 I will put your hand in mine

00:08:26.599 --> 00:08:29.439
 so that I will be your substitute and your representative,

00:08:29.740 --> 00:08:32.519
 and all of those demands of justice will fall on me.

00:08:32.519 --> 00:08:36.279
 But that's not all.

00:08:36.860 --> 00:08:39.100
 The gospel is even more glorious than that.

00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:42.759
 The reason the gospel is even more glorious than that

00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:44.699
 is that Jesus came and lived the life

00:08:44.699 --> 00:08:46.179
 that I was supposed to live

00:08:46.179 --> 00:08:48.139
 and wasn't able to live

00:08:48.139 --> 00:08:49.319
 and could never live.

00:08:50.779 --> 00:08:54.159
 I regularly live my life

00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:56.439
 in a way that sort of tells God

00:08:56.439 --> 00:08:57.860
 to forget about me for a while,

00:08:58.019 --> 00:08:59.639
 to go and do your own thing,

00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:00.980
 and I have my own plans,

00:09:01.139 --> 00:09:02.539
 my own desires,

00:09:02.819 --> 00:09:05.480
 my own attempting to seek God's glory

00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:06.299
 to be important.

00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:07.799
 I have my own things I want to do.

00:09:07.899 --> 00:09:09.620
 I can't live a life

00:09:09.620 --> 00:09:11.480
 which is in perfect communion

00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:13.240
 and fellowship and relationship

00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:14.340
 with God the Father.

00:09:15.059 --> 00:09:17.120
 And the other wonderful thing about the gospel

00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:19.179
 is that not only does Jesus

00:09:19.179 --> 00:09:21.439
 deal with the demands of justice

00:09:21.439 --> 00:09:23.139
 that would be made against us

00:09:23.139 --> 00:09:24.539
 if people knew every single thing

00:09:24.539 --> 00:09:25.639
 there was to know about us,

00:09:26.019 --> 00:09:28.639
 but Jesus has lived that perfect life

00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:30.740
 life of communion and fellowship

00:09:30.740 --> 00:09:33.019
 and oneness with God the Father.

00:09:33.659 --> 00:09:34.419
 And when Jesus,

00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:35.819
 hanging on the cross

00:09:35.819 --> 00:09:38.059
 and then dying and rising from the dead,

00:09:38.139 --> 00:09:39.899
 when he invites us to put our faith

00:09:39.899 --> 00:09:41.120
 and our trust in him,

00:09:41.580 --> 00:09:44.199
 not only are the demands of justice paid,

00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:47.220
 but a life of perfect righteousness,

00:09:47.539 --> 00:09:48.860
 a life of perfect communion

00:09:48.860 --> 00:09:50.639
 with the Father that Jesus lives,

00:09:50.740 --> 00:09:52.220
 that becomes ours as well.

00:09:52.220 --> 00:09:55.580
 So what that means

00:09:55.580 --> 00:09:57.379
 is that I can't subtract.

00:09:57.879 --> 00:10:00.460
 It isn't as if after I put my hand in Jesus

00:10:00.460 --> 00:10:02.019
 and trust him to be my savior,

00:10:02.540 --> 00:10:04.500
 that all of a sudden I can do some stuff

00:10:04.500 --> 00:10:05.240
 and Jesus says,

00:10:05.379 --> 00:10:07.139
 whoa, I can only pay up to so much

00:10:07.139 --> 00:10:08.279
 for what you've done, George,

00:10:08.940 --> 00:10:10.180
 but now you've gone beyond the pale.

00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:11.139
 I can't pay for that.

00:10:13.820 --> 00:10:15.139
 Or it's not the case

00:10:15.139 --> 00:10:16.899
 that God was looking down at me

00:10:16.899 --> 00:10:17.680
 and said, well, you know,

00:10:17.700 --> 00:10:19.360
 I sort of would have let George into heaven

00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:20.919
 just sort of grudgingly.

00:10:21.460 --> 00:10:22.259
 But now that I've seen

00:10:22.259 --> 00:10:23.399
 how good a sermon he preached,

00:10:23.460 --> 00:10:24.100
 he can come in.

00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:25.659
 In other words,

00:10:25.680 --> 00:10:27.659
 as if I have to add to what Jesus has done.

00:10:28.800 --> 00:10:30.320
 This is what the text is saying

00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:31.759
 now to him who is able

00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:33.279
 to keep you from stumbling.

00:10:33.980 --> 00:10:35.180
 In other words, from falling,

00:10:35.379 --> 00:10:36.539
 from entering into ruination.

00:10:36.820 --> 00:10:39.120
 He is the one who keeps me from stumbling

00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:40.740
 and he presents me blameless

00:10:40.740 --> 00:10:42.120
 before the presence of his glory

00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:42.940
 with great joy

00:10:42.940 --> 00:10:44.800
 to the only God, our savior,

00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:46.360
 through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

00:10:47.539 --> 00:10:49.259
 So what this means is that

00:10:49.259 --> 00:10:51.360
 if I preach a sermon

00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:52.659
 which is so good

00:10:52.659 --> 00:10:54.379
 that next week

00:10:54.379 --> 00:10:55.480
 there's a lineup

00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:56.700
 to get into church,

00:10:57.019 --> 00:10:59.200
 that doesn't add anything

00:10:59.200 --> 00:11:00.980
 in terms of how I stand before God.

00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:02.700
 And if I preach a sermon

00:11:02.700 --> 00:11:04.000
 which so sucks

00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:05.840
 that next week

00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:07.080
 it's only the person paid

00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:08.080
 to be the worship leader

00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:09.539
 who's here with me,

00:11:10.179 --> 00:11:12.240
 it doesn't mean that I lose my place

00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:13.059
 in God's standing

00:11:13.059 --> 00:11:14.539
 because Jesus pays it all

00:11:14.539 --> 00:11:17.460
 and his life covers me all.

00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:19.159
 That's what the gospel means.

00:11:19.259 --> 00:11:23.759
 That's what the gospel means.

00:11:24.939 --> 00:11:25.600
 You see,

00:11:26.439 --> 00:11:29.340
 when I start to really get down

00:11:29.340 --> 00:11:29.899
 on myself

00:11:29.899 --> 00:11:31.639
 after I've done a particular failure

00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:32.779
 which is a little bit different.

00:11:32.939 --> 00:11:34.080
 I'm not talking about saying

00:11:34.080 --> 00:11:35.659
 to the Lord after a sermon,

00:11:35.860 --> 00:11:35.980
 Lord,

00:11:36.139 --> 00:11:37.639
 I did some things

00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:40.939
 which I was inattentive

00:11:40.939 --> 00:11:41.659
 during the week

00:11:41.659 --> 00:11:43.279
 and I didn't apply myself

00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:44.080
 to the week

00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:45.419
 and I ask your forgiveness

00:11:45.419 --> 00:11:46.679
 and I ask that you help me

00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:48.399
 to live a better life.

00:11:48.819 --> 00:11:52.199
 That's a good thing.

00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:54.719
 But when I beat myself up,

00:11:54.779 --> 00:11:55.739
 when my self-worth

00:11:55.739 --> 00:11:56.639
 and my identity

00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:00.000
 is troubled

00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:02.379
 over failing

00:12:02.379 --> 00:12:04.819
 to achieve my goals,

00:12:05.500 --> 00:12:06.659
 what I show is

00:12:06.659 --> 00:12:07.799
 is that my identity

00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:09.939
 and my justification

00:12:09.940 --> 00:12:11.280
 and my righteousness

00:12:11.280 --> 00:12:12.940
 isn't in the gospel

00:12:12.940 --> 00:12:15.180
 but it is in what I do.

00:12:16.220 --> 00:12:16.600
 You see,

00:12:16.680 --> 00:12:17.500
 here's one of the things.

00:12:17.560 --> 00:12:18.380
 I don't know where you are

00:12:18.380 --> 00:12:19.100
 with God

00:12:19.100 --> 00:12:20.300
 if you're here

00:12:20.300 --> 00:12:23.040
 and if you're a seeker

00:12:23.040 --> 00:12:23.780
 and you've come here,

00:12:24.280 --> 00:12:24.980
 one of the things

00:12:24.980 --> 00:12:26.500
 which often bothers

00:12:26.500 --> 00:12:27.340
 non-Christians

00:12:27.340 --> 00:12:28.040
 about Christians

00:12:28.040 --> 00:12:29.480
 is that we just sort of,

00:12:29.540 --> 00:12:30.780
 we're all down on sins,

00:12:30.779 --> 00:12:31.199
 you know,

00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:32.779
 all those bad people

00:12:32.779 --> 00:12:33.500
 who go drinking

00:12:33.500 --> 00:12:34.159
 all the time,

00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:35.419
 all those bad people

00:12:35.419 --> 00:12:36.720
 who vote for the wrong party,

00:12:36.860 --> 00:12:38.279
 all those bad people

00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:38.639
 who,

00:12:39.159 --> 00:12:39.579
 you know,

00:12:39.699 --> 00:12:41.079
 are sexually naughty,

00:12:41.220 --> 00:12:42.480
 all those bad people

00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:44.439
 and for a lot of non-Christians

00:12:44.439 --> 00:12:45.539
 they look at us

00:12:45.539 --> 00:12:46.360
 and what they see

00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:47.000
 isn't grace

00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:48.639
 but they see self-righteousness

00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:50.779
 and often they're correct

00:12:50.779 --> 00:12:53.240
 because you see,

00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:54.299
 my example

00:12:54.299 --> 00:12:56.159
 of what I shared

00:12:56.159 --> 00:12:57.519
 about how I feel,

00:12:57.519 --> 00:12:59.199
 I felt bad

00:12:59.199 --> 00:13:00.659
 after failing

00:13:00.659 --> 00:13:01.740
 to preach the sermon

00:13:01.740 --> 00:13:02.419
 that I thought

00:13:02.419 --> 00:13:03.139
 I should be able

00:13:03.139 --> 00:13:03.699
 to preach

00:13:03.699 --> 00:13:05.980
 that my identity

00:13:05.980 --> 00:13:07.139
 and my self-esteem

00:13:07.139 --> 00:13:08.059
 sort of depended upon

00:13:08.059 --> 00:13:08.600
 and it shows

00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:09.199
 that really

00:13:09.199 --> 00:13:10.019
 at bottom

00:13:10.019 --> 00:13:11.240
 I still struggle

00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.620
 with self-righteousness

00:13:13.620 --> 00:13:14.879
 and self-justification

00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:21.220
 and it's not just sins

00:13:21.220 --> 00:13:23.299
 like doing naughty things

00:13:23.299 --> 00:13:24.579
 that keep us far from God,

00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:26.779
 religion also keeps us far from God

00:13:26.779 --> 00:13:28.360
 because religion

00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:29.799
 can just become a means

00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:30.860
 by which we think

00:13:30.860 --> 00:13:32.899
 we chalk up enough brownie points

00:13:32.899 --> 00:13:34.980
 to make ourselves right with God

00:13:34.980 --> 00:13:36.519
 and the wonderful news

00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:37.139
 of the gospel

00:13:37.139 --> 00:13:38.819
 is that nobody can do that

00:13:38.819 --> 00:13:40.779
 but that,

00:13:40.939 --> 00:13:41.699
 if that was the case

00:13:41.699 --> 00:13:42.399
 that nobody could do that

00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:43.419
 that would only be depressing

00:13:43.419 --> 00:13:44.199
 but the gospel

00:13:44.199 --> 00:13:45.019
 is the good news

00:13:45.019 --> 00:13:46.220
 that Jesus has done it

00:13:46.220 --> 00:13:47.199
 he has done it

00:13:47.199 --> 00:13:49.759
 completely and utterly for us

00:13:49.759 --> 00:13:51.939
 and so

00:13:51.939 --> 00:13:54.600
 I will stand someday

00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:56.060
 before God

00:13:56.060 --> 00:13:57.560
 not because I'm a pastor

00:13:57.560 --> 00:13:58.700
 not because I'm

00:13:58.700 --> 00:14:00.560
 I'm a good husband

00:14:00.560 --> 00:14:02.200
 or a so-so husband

00:14:02.200 --> 00:14:03.120
 or a great dad

00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:04.259
 or a so-so dad

00:14:04.259 --> 00:14:05.759
 or because I'm a Canadian

00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:07.080
 or I don't stand

00:14:07.080 --> 00:14:10.060
 I will only stand before God

00:14:10.060 --> 00:14:12.100
 because God was the one

00:14:12.100 --> 00:14:13.620
 who sent power

00:14:13.620 --> 00:14:15.100
 in the person of his son

00:14:15.100 --> 00:14:17.180
 so that when Jesus died upon

00:14:17.180 --> 00:14:19.379
 after living a perfect sinless life

00:14:19.379 --> 00:14:20.660
 in communion with the Father

00:14:20.659 --> 00:14:22.079
 and dying upon the cross

00:14:22.079 --> 00:14:24.659
 he has paid the justice

00:14:24.659 --> 00:14:25.860
 demands of justice

00:14:25.860 --> 00:14:27.059
 that needed to be paid

00:14:27.059 --> 00:14:28.860
 and his perfect life

00:14:28.860 --> 00:14:29.919
 has stood for me

00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:31.659
 and when I put my faith

00:14:31.659 --> 00:14:32.779
 and trust in Jesus

00:14:32.779 --> 00:14:34.579
 accepting that this is

00:14:34.579 --> 00:14:36.000
 what God has provided

00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:37.219
 to make me be able

00:14:37.219 --> 00:14:38.959
 to stand without stumbling

00:14:38.959 --> 00:14:39.839
 and blameless

00:14:39.839 --> 00:14:41.699
 in the presence of his glory

00:14:41.699 --> 00:14:42.620
 with great joy

00:14:42.620 --> 00:14:44.379
 when I accept that

00:14:44.379 --> 00:14:45.679
 he has accomplished

00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:46.839
 and done all of that

00:14:46.839 --> 00:14:47.319
 in Jesus

00:14:47.319 --> 00:14:48.819
 and that stands for me

00:14:48.820 --> 00:14:50.680
 and the rest of my life

00:14:50.680 --> 00:14:52.420
 I cannot add

00:14:52.420 --> 00:14:53.980
 to what Jesus has accomplished

00:14:53.980 --> 00:14:55.340
 nor can I take it away

00:14:55.340 --> 00:14:57.200
 that is the gospel

00:14:57.200 --> 00:15:00.520
 and that's what this text

00:15:00.520 --> 00:15:02.660
 so powerfully reminds us of

00:15:02.660 --> 00:15:04.860
 now to him who is able

00:15:04.860 --> 00:15:07.020
 now to him who is able

00:15:07.020 --> 00:15:08.220
 to keep you from stumbling

00:15:08.220 --> 00:15:09.460
 and to present you blameless

00:15:09.460 --> 00:15:10.940
 before the presence of his glory

00:15:10.940 --> 00:15:11.800
 with great joy

00:15:11.800 --> 00:15:13.500
 to the only God our Savior

00:15:13.500 --> 00:15:15.000
 through Jesus Christ our Lord

00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:18.460
 now some of you might say

00:15:18.460 --> 00:15:19.780
 well

00:15:19.780 --> 00:15:21.920
 in fact

00:15:21.920 --> 00:15:22.780
 this happened

00:15:22.780 --> 00:15:23.840
 just a couple of months ago

00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:24.879
 when I was trying

00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:25.840
 to communicate this

00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:26.500
 to somebody

00:15:26.500 --> 00:15:28.460
 and they said

00:15:28.460 --> 00:15:29.360
 well if that's true

00:15:29.360 --> 00:15:30.780
 they actually said

00:15:30.780 --> 00:15:31.320
 two things

00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:31.660
 they said

00:15:31.660 --> 00:15:32.160
 well actually

00:15:32.160 --> 00:15:33.000
 George

00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:34.120
 that explains

00:15:34.120 --> 00:15:35.700
 a couple of Christians

00:15:35.700 --> 00:15:36.440
 that I've worked with

00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:37.080
 as baristas

00:15:37.080 --> 00:15:39.480
 because you know what

00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:39.800
 George

00:15:39.800 --> 00:15:40.759
 some of these guys

00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:42.300
 like some of your Christians

00:15:42.300 --> 00:15:43.280
 who work with me

00:15:43.280 --> 00:15:44.800
 and work with me

00:15:44.800 --> 00:15:45.660
 in some of these stores

00:15:45.660 --> 00:15:47.360
 like they just sort of think

00:15:47.360 --> 00:15:48.340
 oh yeah okay

00:15:48.340 --> 00:15:49.300
 well I screwed up

00:15:49.300 --> 00:15:50.019
 or I'm lazy

00:15:50.019 --> 00:15:51.240
 or you know

00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:54.399
 I'm gossipy

00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:55.100
 and if you sort of

00:15:55.100 --> 00:15:56.379
 somebody challenges them

00:15:56.379 --> 00:15:57.560
 on doing a shoddy job

00:15:57.560 --> 00:15:58.340
 you get this sense

00:15:58.340 --> 00:15:59.220
 that they just sort of think

00:15:59.220 --> 00:15:59.820
 that they're better

00:15:59.820 --> 00:16:00.600
 than other people

00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:02.159
 and now I sort of understand

00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:02.899
 it they sort of think

00:16:02.899 --> 00:16:03.720
 that they got this

00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:05.100
 free pass from God

00:16:05.100 --> 00:16:06.600
 that no matter what they do

00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:07.720
 they're going to be right

00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:08.279
 with God

00:16:08.279 --> 00:16:09.200
 like George

00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:10.240
 what on earth

00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:11.620
 would give any human being

00:16:11.620 --> 00:16:12.700
 any motivation

00:16:12.700 --> 00:16:13.539
 to try to live

00:16:13.539 --> 00:16:15.019
 a good responsible life

00:16:15.019 --> 00:16:15.779
 if they believed

00:16:15.779 --> 00:16:16.819
 what the gospel said

00:16:16.819 --> 00:16:19.519
 that's a really good question

00:16:19.519 --> 00:16:23.199
 let's read the text

00:16:23.199 --> 00:16:23.939
 again out loud

00:16:23.939 --> 00:16:24.959
 and see what the text

00:16:24.959 --> 00:16:25.579
 says about it

00:16:25.579 --> 00:16:26.039
 could you read it

00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:26.620
 with me please

00:16:26.620 --> 00:16:27.159
 if you could put it

00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:27.740
 back up Andrew

00:16:27.740 --> 00:16:28.199
 thank you

00:16:28.199 --> 00:16:29.699
 now to him

00:16:29.699 --> 00:16:30.599
 who is able

00:16:30.599 --> 00:16:31.319
 to keep you

00:16:31.319 --> 00:16:32.079
 from stumbling

00:16:32.079 --> 00:16:33.559
 and to present you

00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:34.099
 blameless

00:16:34.099 --> 00:16:35.059
 before the presence

00:16:35.059 --> 00:16:35.779
 of his glory

00:16:35.779 --> 00:16:36.699
 with great joy

00:16:36.699 --> 00:16:38.360
 to the only God

00:16:38.360 --> 00:16:39.039
 our Savior

00:16:39.039 --> 00:16:40.439
 through Jesus Christ

00:16:40.439 --> 00:16:41.099
 our Lord

00:16:41.099 --> 00:16:42.199
 be glory

00:16:42.200 --> 00:16:42.940
 majesty

00:16:42.940 --> 00:16:43.740
 dominion

00:16:43.740 --> 00:16:44.500
 and authority

00:16:44.500 --> 00:16:46.280
 before all time

00:16:46.280 --> 00:16:47.020
 and now

00:16:47.020 --> 00:16:47.740
 and forever

00:16:47.740 --> 00:16:48.980
 amen

00:16:48.980 --> 00:16:51.620
 so here's the thing

00:16:51.620 --> 00:16:56.480
 this text actually

00:16:56.480 --> 00:16:57.000
 is a

00:16:57.000 --> 00:16:58.120
 here's

00:16:58.120 --> 00:17:01.080
 it's very interesting

00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:01.780
 I didn't think

00:17:01.780 --> 00:17:02.360
 of saying this

00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:02.879
 at the time

00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:03.440
 the last time

00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:04.360
 I had a conversation

00:17:04.360 --> 00:17:05.440
 with somebody

00:17:05.440 --> 00:17:06.120
 about this

00:17:06.120 --> 00:17:06.720
 and they pointed

00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:07.500
 this out to me

00:17:07.500 --> 00:17:08.980
 but in a very

00:17:08.980 --> 00:17:10.500
 very interesting way

00:17:10.500 --> 00:17:12.039
 the comment

00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:12.799
 that who would

00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:13.599
 ever possibly

00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:14.480
 live a good life

00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:15.079
 if the gospel

00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:15.759
 was true

00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:17.039
 that's actually

00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:17.619
 a very very

00:17:17.619 --> 00:17:18.720
 profound insight

00:17:18.720 --> 00:17:19.240
 to what we

00:17:19.240 --> 00:17:19.779
 human beings

00:17:19.779 --> 00:17:20.299
 are like

00:17:20.299 --> 00:17:23.259
 because in fact

00:17:23.259 --> 00:17:24.000
 what we actually

00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:24.819
 want is a free

00:17:24.819 --> 00:17:25.579
 pass isn't it

00:17:25.579 --> 00:17:26.879
 we want to be

00:17:26.879 --> 00:17:27.579
 like gods

00:17:27.579 --> 00:17:29.279
 like in a very

00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:30.000
 very curious

00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:30.639
 way

00:17:30.639 --> 00:17:32.059
 because this

00:17:32.059 --> 00:17:32.720
 person still

00:17:32.720 --> 00:17:33.220
 might think

00:17:33.220 --> 00:17:33.599
 that you know

00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:33.960
 when I

00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:34.579
 in fact the

00:17:34.579 --> 00:17:35.099
 person I was

00:17:35.099 --> 00:17:35.680
 talking to

00:17:35.680 --> 00:17:36.079
 in fact they

00:17:36.079 --> 00:17:36.839
 would just say

00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:37.319
 that when you

00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:37.819
 die you go

00:17:37.819 --> 00:17:38.220
 to a better

00:17:38.220 --> 00:17:38.839
 place

00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:40.199
 and they

00:17:40.199 --> 00:17:40.799
 might actually

00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:41.379
 say that it

00:17:41.379 --> 00:17:42.039
 is possible

00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:42.500
 for human

00:17:42.500 --> 00:17:42.899
 beings to

00:17:42.899 --> 00:17:43.319
 get better

00:17:43.319 --> 00:17:43.639
 and better

00:17:43.639 --> 00:17:44.000
 and better

00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:44.459
 but this

00:17:44.459 --> 00:17:44.919
 question

00:17:44.919 --> 00:17:45.720
 this observation

00:17:45.720 --> 00:17:46.279
 of the gospel

00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:46.799
 shows that

00:17:46.799 --> 00:17:47.799
 at a deeper

00:17:47.799 --> 00:17:48.919
 level she

00:17:48.919 --> 00:17:49.799
 actually didn't

00:17:49.799 --> 00:17:50.339
 believe that

00:17:50.339 --> 00:17:51.059
 human beings

00:17:51.059 --> 00:17:51.480
 could get

00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:51.919
 better and

00:17:51.919 --> 00:17:52.299
 better and

00:17:52.299 --> 00:17:52.819
 better because

00:17:52.819 --> 00:17:53.439
 she sort of

00:17:53.439 --> 00:17:54.159
 understood that

00:17:54.159 --> 00:17:54.779
 the heart of

00:17:54.779 --> 00:17:55.559
 human beings

00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:57.259
 is this desire

00:17:57.259 --> 00:17:58.199
 to take advantage

00:17:58.199 --> 00:17:58.919
 of God

00:17:58.920 --> 00:18:02.519
 and so if

00:18:02.519 --> 00:18:02.900
 you could put

00:18:02.900 --> 00:18:03.320
 up the next

00:18:03.320 --> 00:18:04.100
 point Andrew

00:18:04.100 --> 00:18:05.759
 what the gospel

00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:06.460
 is telling us

00:18:06.460 --> 00:18:07.160
 what this text

00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:08.160
 is reminding us

00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:09.400
 is that when

00:18:09.400 --> 00:18:10.120
 you receive the

00:18:10.120 --> 00:18:10.920
 gospel Jesus

00:18:10.920 --> 00:18:11.700
 becomes your

00:18:11.700 --> 00:18:13.000
 savior not

00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:13.759
 your enabler

00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:15.920
 and Pierre

00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:16.960
 shared with us

00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:17.539
 about how he

00:18:17.539 --> 00:18:18.259
 was an alcoholic

00:18:18.259 --> 00:18:19.019
 and I use

00:18:19.019 --> 00:18:20.120
 enabler in the

00:18:20.120 --> 00:18:21.720
 alcoholic sense

00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:23.100
 that often what

00:18:23.100 --> 00:18:23.720
 happens with

00:18:23.720 --> 00:18:25.600
 alcoholics is

00:18:25.600 --> 00:18:26.400
 they have somebody

00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:27.100
 who enables

00:18:27.100 --> 00:18:28.180
 their alcoholism

00:18:28.180 --> 00:18:30.160
 they cover up

00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:31.180
 for the alcoholic

00:18:31.180 --> 00:18:32.259
 they make excuses

00:18:32.259 --> 00:18:33.160
 for the alcoholic

00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:34.100
 they don't confront

00:18:34.100 --> 00:18:34.799
 the alcoholic

00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:35.799
 with tough love

00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:37.100
 they become

00:18:37.100 --> 00:18:37.920
 an enabler

00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:39.740
 and you see

00:18:39.740 --> 00:18:40.259
 the fact of the

00:18:40.259 --> 00:18:40.740
 matter is

00:18:40.740 --> 00:18:41.180
 is that the

00:18:41.180 --> 00:18:41.980
 human fundamental

00:18:41.980 --> 00:18:42.920
 human desire

00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:43.840
 that only the

00:18:43.840 --> 00:18:44.580
 Christian faith

00:18:44.580 --> 00:18:45.759
 brings this out

00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:46.180
 is that the

00:18:46.180 --> 00:18:46.940
 fundamental human

00:18:46.940 --> 00:18:47.600
 desire is that

00:18:47.600 --> 00:18:48.039
 we want to be

00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:48.640
 like God

00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:50.480
 and we somehow

00:18:50.480 --> 00:18:51.060
 or another think

00:18:51.060 --> 00:18:51.519
 that we can get

00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:52.160
 away with that

00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:52.720
 fantasy

00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:54.400
 despite the fact

00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:55.220
 that the tiniest

00:18:55.220 --> 00:18:55.840
 little virus

00:18:55.840 --> 00:18:56.620
 makes us sick

00:18:56.620 --> 00:18:57.420
 despite the fact

00:18:57.420 --> 00:18:58.240
 that we all die

00:18:58.240 --> 00:18:58.960
 despite the fact

00:18:58.960 --> 00:18:59.300
 that we were

00:18:59.300 --> 00:18:59.900
 all born

00:18:59.900 --> 00:19:00.940
 and the world

00:19:00.940 --> 00:19:01.600
 was existing

00:19:01.600 --> 00:19:02.500
 completely and utterly

00:19:02.500 --> 00:19:03.259
 before we were

00:19:03.259 --> 00:19:03.620
 born

00:19:03.620 --> 00:19:04.480
 yet somehow

00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:04.840
 or another

00:19:04.840 --> 00:19:05.680
 we want to be

00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:06.140
 the center

00:19:06.140 --> 00:19:06.680
 we want to be

00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:07.240
 like God

00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:07.800
 we want to get

00:19:07.800 --> 00:19:08.220
 the glory

00:19:08.220 --> 00:19:08.900
 we want to have

00:19:08.900 --> 00:19:09.360
 majesty

00:19:09.360 --> 00:19:10.060
 we want to have

00:19:10.060 --> 00:19:10.660
 the dominion

00:19:10.660 --> 00:19:11.300
 we want to have

00:19:11.300 --> 00:19:11.880
 the authority

00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:13.200
 in very small

00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:13.880
 or large ways

00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:14.400
 that's how we

00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:15.039
 live our lives

00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:15.460
 and so

00:19:15.460 --> 00:19:17.100
 actually this text

00:19:17.100 --> 00:19:18.480
 you see

00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:19.300
 hearing about the

00:19:19.300 --> 00:19:20.000
 fact that Jesus

00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:20.980
 does it all for us

00:19:20.980 --> 00:19:21.519
 in the gospel

00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:22.320
 in some ways

00:19:22.320 --> 00:19:23.620
 reveals to us

00:19:23.620 --> 00:19:24.580
 whether what

00:19:24.580 --> 00:19:25.519
 we've actually done

00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:26.220
 is we think

00:19:26.220 --> 00:19:26.700
 we've pulled

00:19:26.700 --> 00:19:27.879
 a fast one

00:19:27.879 --> 00:19:28.720
 on God

00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:31.599
 God is giving me

00:19:31.599 --> 00:19:32.119
 the gospel

00:19:32.119 --> 00:19:32.740
 therefore I can

00:19:32.740 --> 00:19:33.160
 get away with

00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:33.539
 everything

00:19:33.539 --> 00:19:36.180
 you know

00:19:36.180 --> 00:19:36.619
 and therefore

00:19:36.619 --> 00:19:37.559
 we can become

00:19:37.559 --> 00:19:38.039
 you know

00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:38.559
 lazy

00:19:38.559 --> 00:19:39.559
 we can become

00:19:39.559 --> 00:19:40.240
 indifferent to

00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:40.779
 criticism

00:19:40.779 --> 00:19:41.400
 and all of that

00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:41.900
 type of stuff

00:19:41.900 --> 00:19:42.420
 we just think

00:19:42.420 --> 00:19:42.900
 that God

00:19:42.900 --> 00:19:43.599
 that we've

00:19:43.599 --> 00:19:44.359
 deceived God

00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:44.759
 about our

00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:45.379
 true motives

00:19:45.379 --> 00:19:46.019
 and that God

00:19:46.019 --> 00:19:46.619
 is now just

00:19:46.619 --> 00:19:47.779
 enabling us

00:19:47.779 --> 00:19:48.619
 in our project

00:19:48.619 --> 00:19:49.379
 of being God

00:19:49.379 --> 00:19:51.259
 but what does

00:19:51.259 --> 00:19:51.900
 the text say

00:19:51.900 --> 00:19:54.480
 I mean

00:19:54.480 --> 00:19:55.040
 what is it

00:19:55.040 --> 00:19:55.660
 that the end

00:19:55.660 --> 00:19:55.880
 is

00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:56.460
 why is it

00:19:56.460 --> 00:19:56.920
 that Jesus

00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:57.800
 redeems us

00:19:57.800 --> 00:19:58.680
 Jesus doesn't

00:19:58.680 --> 00:19:59.480
 redeem me

00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:00.460
 so I can

00:20:00.460 --> 00:20:01.280
 stand in the

00:20:01.280 --> 00:20:01.840
 presence of

00:20:01.840 --> 00:20:02.360
 the kingdom

00:20:02.360 --> 00:20:03.259
 of George

00:20:03.259 --> 00:20:04.920
 to receive

00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:05.640
 glory and

00:20:05.640 --> 00:20:06.360
 majesty and

00:20:06.360 --> 00:20:06.900
 dominion and

00:20:06.900 --> 00:20:07.560
 authority and

00:20:07.560 --> 00:20:08.040
 power

00:20:08.040 --> 00:20:11.120
 I am made

00:20:11.120 --> 00:20:11.780
 right to stand

00:20:11.780 --> 00:20:12.340
 in God's

00:20:12.340 --> 00:20:12.820
 presence

00:20:12.820 --> 00:20:15.480
 and

00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:16.280
 when

00:20:16.280 --> 00:20:17.360
 and the text

00:20:17.360 --> 00:20:18.120
 reminds me

00:20:18.120 --> 00:20:18.540
 of what it's

00:20:18.540 --> 00:20:19.320
 like to stand

00:20:19.320 --> 00:20:19.920
 in God's

00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:20.259
 presence

00:20:20.259 --> 00:20:21.140
 that first of

00:20:21.140 --> 00:20:21.560
 all you can

00:20:21.559 --> 00:20:22.099
 only stand

00:20:22.099 --> 00:20:22.519
 in God's

00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:22.799
 presence

00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:23.220
 if you're

00:20:23.220 --> 00:20:23.779
 blameless

00:20:23.779 --> 00:20:25.359
 you can

00:20:25.359 --> 00:20:25.919
 only stand

00:20:25.919 --> 00:20:26.419
 in God's

00:20:26.419 --> 00:20:26.779
 presence

00:20:26.779 --> 00:20:27.799
 if he

00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:28.619
 does

00:20:28.619 --> 00:20:29.159
 what you

00:20:29.159 --> 00:20:29.720
 cannot

00:20:29.720 --> 00:20:30.119
 do

00:20:30.119 --> 00:20:31.639
 the gospel

00:20:31.639 --> 00:20:32.599
 becomes

00:20:32.599 --> 00:20:33.359
 home to us

00:20:33.359 --> 00:20:33.679
 when we

00:20:33.679 --> 00:20:34.259
 call out

00:20:34.259 --> 00:20:34.619
 to God

00:20:34.619 --> 00:20:35.000
 and say

00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:35.359
 God

00:20:35.359 --> 00:20:36.339
 I can't

00:20:36.339 --> 00:20:37.579
 do this

00:20:37.579 --> 00:20:39.159
 please

00:20:39.159 --> 00:20:40.440
 help me

00:20:40.440 --> 00:20:40.960
 please

00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:42.000
 rescue me

00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:43.319
 the Christian

00:20:43.319 --> 00:20:43.899
 life doesn't

00:20:43.899 --> 00:20:44.539
 begin when

00:20:44.539 --> 00:20:45.099
 you necessarily

00:20:45.099 --> 00:20:45.599
 know all

00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:46.460
 this theology

00:20:46.460 --> 00:20:47.159
 the theology

00:20:47.159 --> 00:20:47.960
 the cross

00:20:47.960 --> 00:20:49.079
 for me

00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:49.819
 when I

00:20:49.819 --> 00:20:50.339
 became a

00:20:50.339 --> 00:20:50.659
 Christian

00:20:50.659 --> 00:20:51.099
 it all

00:20:51.099 --> 00:20:51.740
 came down

00:20:51.740 --> 00:20:52.519
 to this

00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:53.619
 basic sense

00:20:53.619 --> 00:20:54.000
 that there

00:20:54.000 --> 00:20:54.339
 was a

00:20:54.339 --> 00:20:54.799
 type of

00:20:54.799 --> 00:20:56.159
 a life

00:20:56.159 --> 00:20:56.519
 and a

00:20:56.519 --> 00:20:56.980
 peace

00:20:56.980 --> 00:20:57.839
 which I

00:20:57.839 --> 00:20:58.399
 did not

00:20:58.399 --> 00:20:58.819
 have

00:20:58.819 --> 00:20:59.379
 and could

00:20:59.379 --> 00:20:59.899
 not create

00:20:59.899 --> 00:21:00.179
 in my

00:21:00.179 --> 00:21:00.459
 own

00:21:00.459 --> 00:21:00.879
 and I

00:21:00.879 --> 00:21:01.099
 just

00:21:01.099 --> 00:21:01.359
 I

00:21:01.359 --> 00:21:01.859
 needed

00:21:01.859 --> 00:21:02.619
 God

00:21:02.619 --> 00:21:04.379
 I

00:21:04.379 --> 00:21:04.679
 needed

00:21:04.679 --> 00:21:05.299
 Jesus

00:21:05.299 --> 00:21:06.740
 I

00:21:06.740 --> 00:21:07.000
 needed

00:21:07.000 --> 00:21:07.439
 the Holy

00:21:07.439 --> 00:21:07.899
 Spirit

00:21:07.899 --> 00:21:08.419
 to help

00:21:08.419 --> 00:21:08.659
 me

00:21:08.659 --> 00:21:09.659
 and I

00:21:09.659 --> 00:21:09.980
 couldn't

00:21:09.980 --> 00:21:10.459
 articulate

00:21:10.459 --> 00:21:10.980
 that

00:21:10.980 --> 00:21:11.339
 I didn't

00:21:11.339 --> 00:21:11.699
 know a

00:21:11.699 --> 00:21:11.959
 lot of

00:21:11.959 --> 00:21:12.399
 the Bible

00:21:12.399 --> 00:21:12.939
 all I

00:21:12.939 --> 00:21:13.279
 knew

00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:14.339
 was that

00:21:14.339 --> 00:21:14.679
 there was

00:21:14.680 --> 00:21:15.000
 this

00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:16.560
 incompleteness

00:21:16.560 --> 00:21:18.600
 and this

00:21:18.600 --> 00:21:19.759
 out of

00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:20.860
 whackness

00:21:20.860 --> 00:21:21.680
 that I

00:21:21.680 --> 00:21:22.120
 couldn't

00:21:22.120 --> 00:21:22.700
 fix

00:21:22.700 --> 00:21:23.600
 and that

00:21:23.600 --> 00:21:24.019
 Jesus

00:21:24.019 --> 00:21:24.560
 could

00:21:24.560 --> 00:21:25.440
 and I

00:21:25.440 --> 00:21:25.820
 put my

00:21:25.820 --> 00:21:26.279
 faith and

00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:26.740
 trust in

00:21:26.740 --> 00:21:26.960
 him

00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:29.320
 but then as

00:21:29.320 --> 00:21:29.759
 you read the

00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:30.259
 Bible you

00:21:30.259 --> 00:21:31.019
 learn more and

00:21:31.019 --> 00:21:31.340
 more and

00:21:31.340 --> 00:21:31.640
 more and

00:21:31.640 --> 00:21:31.920
 more and

00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:32.420
 more about

00:21:32.420 --> 00:21:32.640
 it

00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:34.080
 and this

00:21:34.080 --> 00:21:34.640
 text is

00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:35.400
 describing how

00:21:35.400 --> 00:21:36.380
 Jesus redeems

00:21:36.380 --> 00:21:37.160
 us to stand

00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:37.660
 in God's

00:21:37.660 --> 00:21:38.100
 presence

00:21:38.100 --> 00:21:39.940
 that the

00:21:39.940 --> 00:21:40.440
 end of the

00:21:40.440 --> 00:21:40.940
 days there

00:21:40.940 --> 00:21:41.440
 will be an

00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:41.880
 end of the

00:21:41.880 --> 00:21:42.360
 days and

00:21:42.359 --> 00:21:42.939
 God will

00:21:42.939 --> 00:21:43.919
 make all

00:21:43.919 --> 00:21:44.879
 things new

00:21:44.879 --> 00:21:45.719
 he will

00:21:45.719 --> 00:21:46.319
 bring things

00:21:46.319 --> 00:21:46.639
 to their

00:21:46.639 --> 00:21:47.599
 proper end

00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:48.659
 and to

00:21:48.659 --> 00:21:49.199
 say that I

00:21:49.199 --> 00:21:49.759
 will stand

00:21:49.759 --> 00:21:50.219
 in God's

00:21:50.219 --> 00:21:50.639
 presence

00:21:50.639 --> 00:21:51.599
 blameless

00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:52.919
 with great

00:21:52.919 --> 00:21:53.519
 joy

00:21:53.519 --> 00:21:54.819
 not

00:21:54.819 --> 00:21:55.699
 grudgingly

00:21:55.699 --> 00:21:56.139
 on my

00:21:56.139 --> 00:21:56.599
 part or

00:21:56.599 --> 00:21:57.199
 with God's

00:21:57.199 --> 00:21:57.859
 part and I

00:21:57.859 --> 00:21:58.399
 stand in

00:21:58.399 --> 00:21:58.719
 God's

00:21:58.719 --> 00:21:59.139
 presence

00:21:59.139 --> 00:22:00.219
 and when I

00:22:00.219 --> 00:22:00.579
 stand in

00:22:00.579 --> 00:22:00.879
 God's

00:22:00.879 --> 00:22:01.619
 presence I

00:22:01.619 --> 00:22:02.199
 will see

00:22:02.199 --> 00:22:02.639
 and you

00:22:02.639 --> 00:22:02.979
 will see

00:22:02.979 --> 00:22:03.679
 his glory

00:22:03.679 --> 00:22:05.139
 that just

00:22:05.139 --> 00:22:05.599
 means

00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:06.959
 he's just

00:22:06.959 --> 00:22:07.919
 fully revealed

00:22:07.919 --> 00:22:08.879
 as God

00:22:08.880 --> 00:22:12.720
 and he's

00:22:12.720 --> 00:22:13.680
 just the

00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:14.400
 brightness is

00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:14.940
 such that it

00:22:14.940 --> 00:22:15.420
 would blind

00:22:15.420 --> 00:22:15.880
 us if we

00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:16.500
 saw him on

00:22:16.500 --> 00:22:17.120
 this side of

00:22:17.120 --> 00:22:17.640
 the grave

00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:19.360
 and majesty

00:22:19.360 --> 00:22:20.040
 means that we

00:22:20.040 --> 00:22:20.500
 have this

00:22:20.500 --> 00:22:21.100
 sense of

00:22:21.100 --> 00:22:21.860
 God's great

00:22:21.860 --> 00:22:23.460
 transcendence

00:22:23.460 --> 00:22:24.060
 it's as if

00:22:24.060 --> 00:22:24.760
 you were

00:22:24.760 --> 00:22:25.340
 when I was

00:22:25.340 --> 00:22:25.920
 in Angola

00:22:25.920 --> 00:22:26.480
 a year ago

00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:27.080
 I stood on

00:22:27.080 --> 00:22:28.060
 this cliff

00:22:28.060 --> 00:22:29.880
 and on

00:22:29.880 --> 00:22:30.340
 one hand

00:22:30.340 --> 00:22:30.800
 it was a

00:22:30.800 --> 00:22:31.480
 something that

00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:32.120
 I was a

00:22:32.120 --> 00:22:32.520
 place of

00:22:32.520 --> 00:22:32.880
 horror

00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:34.300
 because up

00:22:34.300 --> 00:22:34.840
 until a few

00:22:34.840 --> 00:22:35.540
 years earlier

00:22:35.540 --> 00:22:36.500
 the government

00:22:36.500 --> 00:22:37.380
 would throw

00:22:37.380 --> 00:22:38.200
 dissidents

00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:39.220
 over the

00:22:39.220 --> 00:22:39.580
 edge of

00:22:39.580 --> 00:22:40.059
 this huge

00:22:40.059 --> 00:22:40.380
 cliff

00:22:40.380 --> 00:22:40.720
 to their

00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:41.059
 death

00:22:41.059 --> 00:22:42.200
 now they

00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:42.580
 turned it

00:22:42.580 --> 00:22:42.980
 into a

00:22:42.980 --> 00:22:43.220
 tourist

00:22:43.220 --> 00:22:43.700
 attraction

00:22:43.700 --> 00:22:43.960
 but when

00:22:43.960 --> 00:22:44.160
 you stood

00:22:44.160 --> 00:22:44.380
 on this

00:22:44.380 --> 00:22:44.700
 cliff

00:22:44.700 --> 00:22:45.019
 you had

00:22:45.019 --> 00:22:45.220
 this

00:22:45.220 --> 00:22:45.580
 huge

00:22:45.580 --> 00:22:46.000
 vista

00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:46.940
 it just

00:22:46.940 --> 00:22:47.160
 seemed

00:22:47.160 --> 00:22:47.460
 as if

00:22:47.460 --> 00:22:47.980
 the earth

00:22:47.980 --> 00:22:49.100
 fell away

00:22:49.100 --> 00:22:49.420
 and it

00:22:49.420 --> 00:22:49.799
 went on

00:22:49.799 --> 00:22:50.420
 for distance

00:22:50.420 --> 00:22:51.000
 and distance

00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:51.480
 and distance

00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:52.140
 and it's a

00:22:52.140 --> 00:22:53.279
 vague image

00:22:53.279 --> 00:22:53.680
 of what it

00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:54.080
 would be like

00:22:54.080 --> 00:22:54.580
 to actually

00:22:54.580 --> 00:22:55.259
 see God

00:22:55.259 --> 00:22:55.660
 to have

00:22:55.660 --> 00:22:56.160
 this sense

00:22:56.160 --> 00:22:56.460
 of his

00:22:56.460 --> 00:22:57.299
 largeness

00:22:57.299 --> 00:22:57.900
 his

00:22:57.900 --> 00:22:58.440
 greatness

00:22:58.440 --> 00:22:59.480
 this

00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:00.600
 vast

00:23:00.600 --> 00:23:01.400
 depth

00:23:01.400 --> 00:23:02.620
 that goes

00:23:02.620 --> 00:23:03.160
 on and

00:23:03.160 --> 00:23:03.660
 on and

00:23:03.660 --> 00:23:04.140
 on and

00:23:04.140 --> 00:23:04.940
 to acknowledge

00:23:04.940 --> 00:23:05.880
 his dominion

00:23:05.880 --> 00:23:06.299
 that he

00:23:06.299 --> 00:23:06.900
 is over

00:23:06.900 --> 00:23:07.259
 me and

00:23:07.259 --> 00:23:07.559
 that it's

00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:08.019
 good and

00:23:08.019 --> 00:23:08.720
 that he's

00:23:08.720 --> 00:23:09.379
 authoritative

00:23:09.379 --> 00:23:09.799
 over me

00:23:09.799 --> 00:23:10.039
 and it's

00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:10.879
 good and

00:23:10.879 --> 00:23:11.700
 so God

00:23:11.700 --> 00:23:12.960
 in the

00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:13.359
 gospel

00:23:13.359 --> 00:23:13.740
 Jesus

00:23:13.740 --> 00:23:14.559
 becomes my

00:23:14.559 --> 00:23:15.180
 savior

00:23:15.180 --> 00:23:15.859
 I abandon

00:23:15.859 --> 00:23:16.559
 myself to

00:23:16.559 --> 00:23:16.819
 him he

00:23:16.819 --> 00:23:17.299
 doesn't become

00:23:17.299 --> 00:23:18.059
 my enabler

00:23:18.059 --> 00:23:20.599
 and and

00:23:20.599 --> 00:23:21.180
 the fact

00:23:21.180 --> 00:23:21.720
 is is that

00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:22.019
 when you

00:23:22.019 --> 00:23:22.579
 now know

00:23:22.579 --> 00:23:23.579
 that everything

00:23:23.579 --> 00:23:24.099
 is done

00:23:24.099 --> 00:23:24.879
 by Jesus

00:23:24.879 --> 00:23:28.160
 and that

00:23:28.160 --> 00:23:29.039
 he saves

00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:29.460
 you to

00:23:29.460 --> 00:23:30.180
 stand before

00:23:30.180 --> 00:23:30.900
 God

00:23:30.900 --> 00:23:31.600
 God

00:23:31.600 --> 00:23:34.480
 it checks

00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:35.740
 my desire

00:23:35.740 --> 00:23:36.240
 for him

00:23:36.240 --> 00:23:36.820
 to enable

00:23:36.820 --> 00:23:37.180
 me in

00:23:37.180 --> 00:23:37.360
 my

00:23:37.360 --> 00:23:37.680
 God

00:23:37.680 --> 00:23:38.240
 project

00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:39.600
 and it

00:23:39.600 --> 00:23:40.060
 frees me

00:23:40.060 --> 00:23:40.340
 up to

00:23:40.340 --> 00:23:41.100
 take risks

00:23:41.100 --> 00:23:42.400
 it frees

00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:42.700
 me up

00:23:42.700 --> 00:23:43.300
 to try

00:23:43.300 --> 00:23:44.759
 it frees

00:23:44.759 --> 00:23:45.140
 me up

00:23:45.140 --> 00:23:45.500
 to know

00:23:45.500 --> 00:23:45.860
 that I

00:23:45.860 --> 00:23:46.480
 can actually

00:23:46.480 --> 00:23:47.060
 look at the

00:23:47.060 --> 00:23:47.519
 really really

00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:48.259
 bad things

00:23:48.259 --> 00:23:48.620
 I've done

00:23:48.620 --> 00:23:48.920
 in my

00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:49.220
 life

00:23:49.220 --> 00:23:49.480
 and I

00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:49.960
 can look

00:23:49.960 --> 00:23:50.280
 at them

00:23:50.280 --> 00:23:50.480
 and I

00:23:50.480 --> 00:23:50.800
 don't have

00:23:50.800 --> 00:23:51.420
 to worry

00:23:51.420 --> 00:23:52.540
 about them

00:23:52.540 --> 00:23:53.180
 because God

00:23:53.180 --> 00:23:53.600
 knows all

00:23:53.600 --> 00:23:53.960
 about it

00:23:53.960 --> 00:23:54.100
 and it's

00:23:54.100 --> 00:23:54.560
 been paid

00:23:54.560 --> 00:23:55.060
 for by

00:23:55.060 --> 00:23:55.480
 Jesus

00:23:55.480 --> 00:23:56.759
 that actually

00:23:56.759 --> 00:23:57.039
 is the

00:23:57.039 --> 00:23:57.960
 gospel grips

00:23:57.960 --> 00:23:58.259
 you

00:23:58.259 --> 00:23:59.720
 it provides

00:23:59.720 --> 00:24:00.759
 this energy

00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:01.500
 to try

00:24:01.500 --> 00:24:02.000
 to take

00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:02.519
 risks

00:24:02.519 --> 00:24:03.039
 and to

00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:03.400
 look at

00:24:03.400 --> 00:24:03.779
 yourself

00:24:03.779 --> 00:24:04.360
 in new

00:24:04.360 --> 00:24:04.900
 ways

00:24:04.900 --> 00:24:06.039
 because you

00:24:06.039 --> 00:24:06.420
 have this

00:24:06.420 --> 00:24:06.819
 profound

00:24:06.819 --> 00:24:07.500
 security of

00:24:07.500 --> 00:24:07.900
 what Jesus

00:24:07.900 --> 00:24:08.319
 has done

00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:08.559
 for you

00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:08.779
 on the

00:24:08.779 --> 00:24:09.160
 cross

00:24:09.160 --> 00:24:12.500
 but then

00:24:12.500 --> 00:24:12.960
 some might

00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:13.480
 say well

00:24:13.480 --> 00:24:13.900
 George

00:24:13.900 --> 00:24:15.420
 if God's

00:24:15.420 --> 00:24:15.740
 just going

00:24:15.740 --> 00:24:16.120
 to do it

00:24:16.120 --> 00:24:16.579
 anyway

00:24:16.579 --> 00:24:17.700
 like why

00:24:17.700 --> 00:24:17.960
 is he

00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:18.319
 waiting

00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:19.720
 like why

00:24:19.720 --> 00:24:19.980
 doesn't he

00:24:19.980 --> 00:24:20.279
 just sort

00:24:20.279 --> 00:24:20.599
 of come

00:24:20.599 --> 00:24:20.779
 down

00:24:20.779 --> 00:24:21.140
 say okay

00:24:21.140 --> 00:24:21.400
 I've had

00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:21.720
 enough

00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:22.279
 I'm going

00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:22.539
 to come

00:24:22.539 --> 00:24:23.140
 down right

00:24:30.619 --> 00:24:30.759
 better

00:24:30.759 --> 00:24:31.140
 place

00:24:42.819 --> 00:24:43.960
 well

00:24:43.960 --> 00:24:44.160

 the

00:24:45.799 --> 00:24:46.039
 text

00:24:55.000 --> 00:25:07.680
 to

 you

00:25:07.819 --> 00:25:12.700
 know

00:25:12.700 --> 00:25:12.920
 one of

00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:13.019
 the

00:25:13.019 --> 00:25:13.259
 things

00:25:13.259 --> 00:25:13.519
 about

00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:13.799
 the

00:25:13.799 --> 00:25:14.759
 Canadian

00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:15.259
 view

00:25:15.259 --> 00:25:15.599
 which

00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:15.720
 is

00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:15.839
 what

00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:16.000
 the

00:25:16.000 --> 00:25:16.339
 Canadian

00:25:16.339 --> 00:25:16.619
 view

00:25:16.619 --> 00:25:16.779
 is

00:25:16.779 --> 00:25:16.980
 when

00:25:16.980 --> 00:25:17.160
 we

00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:17.339
 die

00:25:17.339 --> 00:25:17.500
 we

00:25:17.500 --> 00:25:17.619
 all

00:25:17.619 --> 00:25:17.720
 go

00:25:17.720 --> 00:25:17.819
 to

00:25:17.819 --> 00:25:17.940
 a

00:25:17.940 --> 00:25:18.099
 better

00:25:18.099 --> 00:25:18.599
 place

00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:19.740
 and

00:25:19.740 --> 00:25:20.660
 it

00:25:20.660 --> 00:25:21.039
 sounds

00:25:21.039 --> 00:25:21.819
 superficially

00:25:21.819 --> 00:25:22.180
 as if

00:25:22.180 --> 00:25:22.359
 it's

00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:22.539
 really

00:25:22.539 --> 00:25:23.099
 superior

00:25:23.099 --> 00:25:23.400
 to

 Christian

00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:24.359

00:25:25.740 --> 00:25:26.019
 question

 ask

00:25:26.719 --> 00:25:26.919

00:25:26.919 --> 00:25:27.279
 really

00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:28.359
 okay

00:33:53.399 --> 00:33:54.480

00:33:54.480 --> 00:33:54.659
 I

00:33:54.659 --> 00:33:54.859
 thought

00:33:54.859 --> 00:33:55.039
 I'd

00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:55.139
 done

00:33:55.139 --> 00:33:55.259
 a

00:33:55.259 --> 00:33:55.399
 very

00:33:55.399 --> 00:33:55.679
 bad

00:33:55.679 --> 00:33:55.980
 job

00:33:55.980 --> 00:33:56.119
 on

00:33:56.700 --> 00:33:57.299
 and

 once

00:33:57.500 --> 00:33:57.720
 again

00:33:57.720 --> 00:33:57.879
 I

00:33:57.879 --> 00:33:58.000
 don't

00:33:58.000 --> 00:33:58.179
 want

00:33:58.179 --> 00:33:58.279
 you

00:33:58.279 --> 00:33:58.379
 to

00:33:58.379 --> 00:33:58.500
 say

00:33:58.500 --> 00:33:58.720
 anything

00:33:58.720 --> 00:33:58.960
 about

00:33:58.960 --> 00:33:59.179
 my

00:33:59.179 --> 00:33:59.460
 sermon

00:33:59.460 --> 00:33:59.899
 last

00:33:59.899 --> 00:34:00.240
 week

00:34:00.240 --> 00:34:01.439
 I

00:34:01.439 --> 00:34:01.599
 don't

00:34:01.599 --> 00:34:01.740
 want

00:34:01.740 --> 00:34:01.799
 you

00:34:01.799 --> 00:34:01.919
 to

00:34:01.919 --> 00:34:02.059
 say

00:34:02.059 --> 00:34:02.159
 it

00:34:02.159 --> 00:34:02.240
 at

00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:02.480
 all

00:34:02.480 --> 00:34:04.000
 because

00:34:04.000 --> 00:34:04.179
 this

00:34:04.179 --> 00:34:04.279
 is

00:34:04.279 --> 00:34:04.439
 like

00:34:04.439 --> 00:34:04.579
 a

00:34:04.579 --> 00:34:05.039
 confession

00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:05.480
 time

00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:05.659
 to

00:34:05.659 --> 00:34:05.740
 you

00:34:05.740 --> 00:34:05.919
 it's

00:34:05.919 --> 00:34:06.220
 not

00:34:06.220 --> 00:34:06.679
 a

00:34:06.679 --> 00:34:07.259
 convoluted

00:34:07.259 --> 00:34:07.500
 way

00:34:07.500 --> 00:34:07.679
 for

00:34:07.679 --> 00:34:07.799
 me

00:34:10.320 --> 00:34:10.720
 whatever

00:34:10.720 --> 00:34:11.519
 comfort

00:34:11.519 --> 00:34:11.760
 or

00:34:11.760 --> 00:34:12.200
 therapy

00:34:12.200 --> 00:34:12.580
 or

00:34:12.580 --> 00:34:13.360
 that

00:34:13.360 --> 00:34:13.519
 was

00:34:13.519 --> 00:34:13.900
 actually

00:34:13.900 --> 00:34:14.260
 good

00:34:14.260 --> 00:34:14.480
 I

00:34:14.480 --> 00:34:15.320
 don't

00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:15.440
 want

00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:15.500
 to

00:34:15.500 --> 00:34:15.640
 say

00:34:15.640 --> 00:34:15.820
 anything

00:34:15.820 --> 00:34:16.080
 about

00:34:16.080 --> 00:34:16.300
 it

00:34:16.300 --> 00:34:17.100
 but

00:34:17.100 --> 00:34:17.260
 the

00:34:17.260 --> 00:34:17.500
 fact

00:34:17.500 --> 00:34:17.640
 of

00:34:17.640 --> 00:34:17.660
 the

00:34:17.660 --> 00:34:17.840
 matter

00:34:17.840 --> 00:34:18.180
 is

00:34:18.180 --> 00:34:18.420
 is

00:34:18.420 --> 00:34:18.620
 that

00:34:18.620 --> 00:34:19.220
 what

00:34:19.220 --> 00:34:19.820
 happens

00:34:19.820 --> 00:34:20.740
 what

00:34:20.740 --> 00:34:21.200
 happens

00:34:21.200 --> 00:34:21.420
 to

00:34:21.420 --> 00:34:21.700
 me

00:34:21.700 --> 00:34:22.100
 when

00:34:22.100 --> 00:34:22.280
 that

00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:22.480
 goes

00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:22.740
 on

00:34:22.740 --> 00:34:22.980
 is

00:34:22.980 --> 00:34:23.100
 that

00:34:23.100 --> 00:34:23.200
 I

00:34:23.200 --> 00:34:23.519
 actually

00:34:23.519 --> 00:34:23.760
 think

00:34:23.760 --> 00:34:23.960
 my

00:34:23.960 --> 00:34:24.420
 standing

00:34:24.420 --> 00:34:24.680
 with

00:34:24.680 --> 00:34:24.980
 God

00:34:24.980 --> 00:34:25.380
 depends

00:34:25.380 --> 00:34:25.640
 upon

00:34:25.640 --> 00:34:25.840
 my

00:34:25.840 --> 00:34:26.059
 own

00:34:26.059 --> 00:34:26.480
 efforts

00:34:26.480 --> 00:34:26.760
 my

00:34:26.760 --> 00:34:26.920
 own

00:34:26.920 --> 00:34:27.600
 accomplishments

00:34:27.600 --> 00:34:29.840
 I

00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:30.019
 no

00:34:30.019 --> 00:34:30.440
 longer

00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:30.840
 think

00:34:30.840 --> 00:34:31.019
 that

00:34:31.019 --> 00:34:31.180
 it's

00:34:31.180 --> 00:34:31.340
 the

00:34:31.340 --> 00:34:31.760
 gospel

00:34:31.760 --> 00:34:31.980
 that

00:34:31.980 --> 00:34:32.200
 makes

00:34:32.200 --> 00:34:32.340
 me

00:34:32.340 --> 00:34:32.519
 right

00:34:32.519 --> 00:34:32.700
 with

 God

00:34:33.019 --> 00:34:33.980
 and

00:34:33.980 --> 00:34:34.340
 what

00:34:34.340 --> 00:34:34.519
 I

00:34:34.519 --> 00:34:34.760
 need

00:34:34.760 --> 00:34:34.940
 is

00:34:34.940 --> 00:34:35.080
 it

 it

00:36:34.119 --> 00:36:34.660
 won't

 it

00:36:39.559 --> 00:36:40.220
 doesn't

 the

00:37:23.080 --> 00:37:23.320
 way

00:37:23.320 --> 00:37:24.180
 is

00:37:24.180 --> 00:37:24.560
 if

00:37:24.560 --> 00:37:24.960
 what

00:37:24.960 --> 00:37:26.400
 happens

00:37:26.400 --> 00:37:26.940
 afterwards

00:37:26.940 --> 00:37:27.140
 is

00:37:27.140 --> 00:37:27.260
 you

00:37:27.260 --> 00:37:27.360
 know

 Jesus

00:37:27.680 --> 00:37:27.940
 more

00:37:27.940 --> 00:37:28.080
 than

00:37:28.080 --> 00:37:28.200
 me

00:37:28.200 --> 00:37:28.460
 that's

00:37:28.460 --> 00:37:28.580
 good

00:37:28.580 --> 00:37:28.700
 if

00:37:28.700 --> 00:37:28.780
 you

00:37:28.780 --> 00:37:28.940
 want

00:37:28.940 --> 00:37:29.020
 to

00:37:29.020 --> 00:37:29.280
 actually

00:37:29.280 --> 00:37:29.640
 memorize

00:37:29.640 --> 00:37:30.000
 this

00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:30.360
 text

00:37:30.360 --> 00:37:31.440
 that's

00:37:31.440 --> 00:37:32.060
 that's

00:37:32.060 --> 00:37:32.400
 I want

00:37:32.400 --> 00:37:32.600
 you to

00:37:32.600 --> 00:37:32.800
 remember

00:37:32.800 --> 00:37:33.000
 the

00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:33.300
 text

00:37:33.300 --> 00:37:33.520
 more

00:37:33.520 --> 00:37:33.660
 than

00:37:33.660 --> 00:37:33.880
 my

00:37:33.880 --> 00:37:34.340
 words

00:37:34.340 --> 00:37:35.160
 but

00:37:35.160 --> 00:37:35.720
 here's

00:37:35.720 --> 00:37:35.860
 the

00:37:35.860 --> 00:37:36.040
 thing

00:37:36.040 --> 00:37:36.340
 Andrew

00:37:36.340 --> 00:37:36.480
 if

00:37:36.480 --> 00:37:36.579
 you

00:37:36.579 --> 00:37:36.760
 could

00:37:36.760 --> 00:37:36.800
 put

00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:36.920
 up

00:37:36.920 --> 00:37:37.039
 the

00:37:37.039 --> 00:37:37.380
 final

00:37:37.380 --> 00:37:38.400
 point

00:37:38.400 --> 00:37:38.780
 please

00:37:38.780 --> 00:37:40.320
 you

00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:40.480
 are

00:37:40.480 --> 00:37:40.720
 not

00:37:40.720 --> 00:37:41.019
 so

00:37:41.019 --> 00:37:41.460
 good

00:37:41.460 --> 00:37:41.660
 or

00:37:41.660 --> 00:37:41.940
 so

00:37:41.940 --> 00:37:42.539
 important

00:37:42.539 --> 00:37:43.360
 that

00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:43.500
 you

00:37:43.500 --> 00:37:43.660

00:37:43.660 --> 00:37:43.860
 not

00:37:43.860 --> 00:37:44.100
 need

00:37:44.100 --> 00:37:44.280
 the

00:37:44.280 --> 00:37:44.700
 gospel

00:37:44.700 --> 00:37:45.720
 and

00:37:45.720 --> 00:37:45.860
 you

00:37:45.860 --> 00:37:45.980
 are

00:37:45.980 --> 00:37:46.220
 not

00:37:46.220 --> 00:37:46.519
 so

00:37:46.519 --> 00:37:47.100
 bad

00:37:47.100 --> 00:37:47.420
 or

00:37:47.420 --> 00:37:47.740
 so

00:37:47.740 --> 00:37:48.559
 unimportant

00:37:48.559 --> 00:37:49.600
 that

00:37:49.600 --> 00:37:49.880
 God

00:37:49.880 --> 00:37:50.079
 does

00:37:50.079 --> 00:37:50.280
 not

00:37:50.280 --> 00:37:50.660
 offer

00:37:50.660 --> 00:37:50.860
 the

 gospel

 to

 so

00:37:55.400 --> 00:37:55.860
 good

00:37:55.860 --> 00:37:56.200
 or

00:37:56.200 --> 00:37:56.539
 so

00:37:56.539 --> 00:37:57.079
 important

00:37:57.079 --> 00:37:57.340
 that

00:37:57.340 --> 00:37:58.079
 you

00:37:58.079 --> 00:37:58.240
 do

00:37:58.240 --> 00:37:58.460
 not

00:37:58.460 --> 00:37:58.680
 need

00:37:58.680 --> 00:37:58.860
 the

00:37:58.860 --> 00:37:59.320
 gospel

00:37:59.320 --> 00:38:00.400
 and

 you

00:38:00.539 --> 00:38:00.700
 are

00:38:00.700 --> 00:38:00.920
 not

 so

00:38:01.240 --> 00:38:01.800
 bad

00:38:01.800 --> 00:38:02.200
 or

00:38:02.200 --> 00:38:02.460
 so

00:38:02.460 --> 00:38:03.240
 unimportant

00:38:03.240 --> 00:38:04.200
 or

00:38:04.200 --> 00:38:04.480
 so

00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:05.000
 broken

00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:05.480
 or

00:38:05.480 --> 00:38:05.720
 so

00:38:05.719 --> 00:38:14.779
 forgotten, or so helpless, or so incompetent, or so unloved, or such a failure, or so unsuccessful,

00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:21.559
 that God does not offer the gospel to you. See, it all comes, it is, one of the things which is

00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:29.039
 so wonderful is when it says in the text here, through Jesus Christ our Lord, because Jesus is

00:38:29.039 --> 00:38:38.779
 real. I mean, non-Christian historians record elements of Jesus's life. Like, Jesus actually

00:38:38.779 --> 00:38:43.679
 really, only a few kooky Marxist communists don't believe Jesus actually existed. Everybody,

00:38:43.880 --> 00:38:48.820
 even skeptics and atheists, know that there's incontrovertible evidence that Jesus actually

00:38:48.820 --> 00:38:54.440
 lived. And so this isn't just a story. This isn't like the Easter bunny. This isn't like the great

00:38:54.440 --> 00:39:01.860
 pumpkin. This isn't like Santa Claus. This is a story about what God actually did in space and time

00:39:01.860 --> 00:39:10.139
 in history, in a way that Roman and Jewish non-Christian historians would write about him.

00:39:10.380 --> 00:39:15.079
 It's actually something that really happened. He really did die. When I was in Jerusalem,

00:39:15.380 --> 00:39:19.920
 just over a week ago, part of the thing which was so wonderful is I'm walking these streets,

00:39:20.039 --> 00:39:24.099
 and I think to myself, Jesus, I mean, obviously there's pavement and everything like that,

00:39:24.099 --> 00:39:29.319
 but Jesus walked these streets. He had to walk up these steep hills under the burning sun looking

00:39:29.319 --> 00:39:37.139
 for some shade. When we were on the temple steps, there's some steps, part of the ruins just outside

00:39:37.139 --> 00:39:43.920
 the, just within the old wall of Jerusalem, and I sent a video about it, like that actually was not

00:39:43.920 --> 00:39:51.519
 destroyed by the Romans. So Jesus's feet were on those steps. And I discovered afterwards that

00:39:51.519 --> 00:39:56.679
 historians believe that after the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit fell on the disciple in the

00:39:56.679 --> 00:40:01.460
 upper rooms, it was on those stairs that the disciples stood and preached to the people.

00:40:02.900 --> 00:40:07.420
 So that when I was sitting there, I was just sitting hundreds of yards from where the Holy Spirit

00:40:07.420 --> 00:40:14.179
 actually fell on people. And it was close to there that Jesus, we don't, might not know precisely where

00:40:14.179 --> 00:40:20.779
 he was buried, but he really did die right near there. And he really did rise from the dead right

00:40:20.779 --> 00:40:29.480
 near there. And it really happened. And he's the only God. And because he's the only God, that doesn't

00:40:29.480 --> 00:40:34.859
 mean that he only has a few. It means he's the only God for every human being. It isn't if he's just the

00:40:34.859 --> 00:40:39.199
 God of the Jews, and there's the God of the Muslims, and there's the God of the Hindus, and there's the God of

00:40:39.199 --> 00:40:45.779
 the Buddhists. If there is in fact only one God, then we are a common humanity, not a fractured

00:40:45.779 --> 00:40:52.879
 humanity. And if he is the only God, then he is the only Savior. And that means his offer to save is to

00:40:52.879 --> 00:40:59.879
 every single human being. He died on the cross, and he lived his sinless life and died on the cross for

00:40:59.879 --> 00:41:04.980
 every single human being. So there is no one that you will meet today who is so good that they do not

00:41:04.980 --> 00:41:09.900
 need the gospel. And there is no one you will meet today who is so important they do not need the

00:41:09.900 --> 00:41:16.480
 gospel. And there is no one that you will meet today who is so unimportant or so bad that the gospel is

00:41:16.480 --> 00:41:22.840
 not offered to them. The gospel is offered to every one of you who are here today. Please stand.

00:41:22.840 --> 00:41:40.260
 Just want to urge you, there's no fancy words, but if you're not sure what your status is with God,

00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:45.900
 there is no better time than today to just to say, Jesus, I don't know everything you've done,

00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:52.620
 but I know that you just say, Jesus, I want you to be my Savior and my Lord. I cannot fix myself.

00:41:52.619 --> 00:41:58.839
 I cannot make myself right. I thank you that you have done what I cannot do. Jesus, be my Savior,

00:41:58.980 --> 00:42:03.960
 be my Lord. I want you to be my Savior and my Lord, just to call out to him to be your Savior. No better

00:42:03.960 --> 00:42:11.639
 time than today. Father, pour out the Holy Spirit upon us. Father, for those of us who are Christians

00:42:11.639 --> 00:42:17.299
 who've received the gospel, thank you for Jesus. Thank you for what he did for us on the cross. Thank you

00:42:17.300 --> 00:42:24.300
 for his sinless life. Thank you, Father, that you through Jesus have done everything that needs to

00:42:24.300 --> 00:42:34.420
 be done with nothing left out, that we will one day stand before you blameless in the presence of your

00:42:34.420 --> 00:42:41.720
 glory with great joy. And you have done everything and only you can do that. We can add or subtract

00:42:41.719 --> 00:42:48.439
 nothing from it. Father, thank you for Jesus. Thank you that you are Savior. Thank you that the Holy

00:42:48.439 --> 00:42:55.279
 Spirit freed up our hearts to respond to the gospel with yes. Father, we ask that you would continue to

00:42:55.279 --> 00:43:03.099
 pour the Holy Spirit upon us and bring your word to bear into our lives, that the gospel might become

00:43:03.099 --> 00:43:10.759
 more real to us in the heights and depths and breadth of our life, and that when we fail, we might call

00:43:10.759 --> 00:43:18.779
 out to you that the gospel will become more real to us, forming our identity, forming our sense of

00:43:18.779 --> 00:43:25.639
 destiny, and granting us great confidence and boldness in the security and finality of your love. We ask this

00:43:25.639 --> 00:43:27.679
 in the name of Jesus. Amen.
