Welcome to good for selfie and
talks.
2
00:00:15,500 –> 00:00:19,200
I’m Levi and I’m Chris and I’m
Brian, thank you for joining us
3
00:00:19,200 –> 00:00:21,900
this week.
On this podcast, we select one
4
00:00:21,900 –> 00:00:26,300
taco week to help us get the
Bible in our daily news feed.
5
00:00:26,500 –> 00:00:29,200
We post a new episode of the
start of each week with a short
6
00:00:29,200 –> 00:00:31,300
intro.
Hand to kind of set the stage
7
00:00:31,300 –> 00:00:33,500
for the talk.
You’re about to listen to and
8
00:00:33,500 –> 00:00:36,300
now let’s talk more about this
week’s talk.
9
00:00:49,300 –> 00:00:51,900
This week’s talk is by Brother.
Johnny monell.
10
00:00:52,200 –> 00:00:54,700
The title is, the Lord shall
descend with a shout and it was
11
00:00:54,700 –> 00:00:59,100
his first talk from the swannack
by the weekend in England.
12
00:00:59,100 –> 00:01:04,800
In May 21 hits the stock
Explorer is kind of the concept
13
00:01:04,800 –> 00:01:10,400
of shouting using this quote,
from first Thessalonians it
14
00:01:10,900 –> 00:01:14,700
explores.
I’d say, the urgency of Our Hope
15
00:01:15,200 –> 00:01:20,700
and the how much we need to
react to this as if we are being
16
00:01:20,700 –> 00:01:24,400
shouted out.
Now based on the shout, that is
17
00:01:24,400 –> 00:01:27,400
coming which will be the
beginning of the Resurrection.
18
00:01:29,100 –> 00:01:31,300
This is very encouraging.
And I love brother Johnny’s
19
00:01:31,300 –> 00:01:33,900
style.
He kind of has a, you can tell
20
00:01:33,900 –> 00:01:39,800
he gets in kind of a oh, a mode
or a Zone, which is very
21
00:01:39,800 –> 00:01:43,300
enjoyable to listen to.
And and this was a very
22
00:01:43,300 –> 00:01:46,100
encouraging class.
This was a suggestion and thank
23
00:01:46,100 –> 00:01:47,800
you to the person that sent this
talk in.
24
00:01:48,600 –> 00:01:53,100
It’s also important to note that
the recording is cut off, just
25
00:01:53,100 –> 00:01:55,300
the beginning.
So you’re kind of jump in at the
26
00:01:55,300 –> 00:01:58,600
beginning of his introduction
story, but I think you get you
27
00:01:58,600 –> 00:02:01,400
don’t feel you miss anything.
So here is brother Johnny
28
00:02:01,400 –> 00:02:05,300
Mandel, the Lord shall assemble
the show, we’re going to face
29
00:02:06,300 –> 00:02:10,500
with our kids at the moment
where when we share with the
30
00:02:10,500 –> 00:02:14,900
tend not to come, I say
wistfully it’s a phase because
31
00:02:14,900 –> 00:02:18,200
I’m not sure it was ever
different and I suspect it’s
32
00:02:18,200 –> 00:02:20,600
probably not going to change and
in fact a reflection even the
33
00:02:20,608 –> 00:02:24,000
dog responds.
Similarly, I noticed that they
34
00:02:24,000 –> 00:02:28,600
come when the call is for
something they really want,
35
00:02:28,600 –> 00:02:31,600
right?
I’m not gonna say for example
36
00:02:31,600 –> 00:02:34,500
because I might embarrass the
family but, you know, come for
37
00:02:34,500 –> 00:02:37,700
this and all of a sudden there’s
a stampede from the garden as
38
00:02:37,700 –> 00:02:41,000
they race for the thing.
If it’s come for dinner, or can
39
00:02:41,000 –> 00:02:44,100
you please come inside your room
as I’m hoping, it’s not a
40
00:02:44,100 –> 00:02:46,200
unique.
Experience takes about 10,
41
00:02:46,200 –> 00:02:51,000
shouts as the volume gradually
increases, and the energy level
42
00:02:51,400 –> 00:02:57,200
rises, and the response becomes
diminishing with every volume
43
00:02:57,200 –> 00:03:00,600
increase.
And as ever it, Sometimes in
44
00:03:00,608 –> 00:03:04,100
these moments, you see a
microcosm of kind of human life,
45
00:03:04,100 –> 00:03:07,400
right?
This is sometimes how we can be
46
00:03:07,400 –> 00:03:09,600
with the voice of the Lord
Jesus, isn’t it?
47
00:03:10,700 –> 00:03:15,500
We’re not always as quick to
respond in the same way that our
48
00:03:15,500 –> 00:03:18,400
kids aren’t always as quick to
respond.
49
00:03:18,400 –> 00:03:23,400
As we would we would like Under
Jim princess, these words have
50
00:03:23,400 –> 00:03:27,700
always been powerful.
If you think about the very way,
51
00:03:27,800 –> 00:03:32,000
scripture opens.
And you read Genesis chapter
52
00:03:32,000 –> 00:03:35,100
one, there, you’re left with
without any doubt at all.
53
00:03:35,100 –> 00:03:39,800
As to what the creative spark
was that brought everything into
54
00:03:39,800 –> 00:03:41,700
being.
There’s no doubt about it, is
55
00:03:41,700 –> 00:03:45,200
that it wasn’t chemistry or
biology or physics.
56
00:03:45,600 –> 00:03:50,000
It was.
And God said, Ten times there in
57
00:03:50,000 –> 00:03:53,300
Genesis chapter one, we’re just
as you begin opening you know
58
00:03:53,400 –> 00:03:55,100
it’s like a classic novel, isn’t
it?
59
00:03:55,100 –> 00:03:58,900
You open at the first page is
got to grip you and God wants to
60
00:03:58,908 –> 00:04:02,500
present himself to you on the
very opening of the first roll.
61
00:04:02,700 –> 00:04:05,700
This is how it’s going to work
my voice.
62
00:04:05,900 –> 00:04:09,300
My words are exceedingly
powerful.
63
00:04:09,500 –> 00:04:15,300
And God said let there be light
and there was and God said let
64
00:04:15,300 –> 00:04:19,500
the waters be separated from the
dry land and it on this and God
65
00:04:19,500 –> 00:04:24,200
said, let the let the CC Teem
with living creatures and it was
66
00:04:25,500 –> 00:04:29,300
and God said 10 times, there’s
no question is there?
67
00:04:29,300 –> 00:04:31,100
And of course it was an
important statement.
68
00:04:31,100 –> 00:04:33,800
As you begin opening, the first
scroll, because there’s a lot
69
00:04:33,800 –> 00:04:36,300
Scrolls that we’re going to
follow that, we’re going to
70
00:04:36,300 –> 00:04:40,500
document your dealings with
humans throughout history and
71
00:04:40,500 –> 00:04:46,500
lay out his plan in words.
And those words had the
72
00:04:46,600 –> 00:04:54,900
capability, the potential, the
power to change and to create
73
00:04:55,400 –> 00:05:00,400
and to ignite words, have always
been very powerful and
74
00:05:00,400 –> 00:05:03,000
especially when they are God’s
words.
75
00:05:04,900 –> 00:05:09,000
Can any of you remember, how
this is test your Sunday school
76
00:05:09,000 –> 00:05:12,200
proofs?
Now, without looking at it, can
77
00:05:12,200 –> 00:05:14,600
you remember how Hebrews chapter
11 we gaze?
78
00:05:17,800 –> 00:05:20,000
Come on, gives somebody starts
off.
79
00:05:21,400 –> 00:05:26,500
Faith is the substance of things
hoped for the evidence of things
80
00:05:26,500 –> 00:05:31,300
not to see right as verse 1.
He remember verse 2, I don’t
81
00:05:33,100 –> 00:05:35,700
write the elders obtained, a
good report, we’re getting less
82
00:05:35,700 –> 00:05:43,500
down the popular proofs now.
And if we remember verse 3, For
83
00:05:43,500 –> 00:05:49,700
by faith, we believe that the
world was made by the word of
84
00:05:49,700 –> 00:05:52,100
God.
Have you ever wondered why?
85
00:05:53,100 –> 00:05:56,500
When the writer beginning that
chapter, which is so famous,
86
00:05:56,500 –> 00:06:02,000
isn’t it of all these people?
This was the opening sequence by
87
00:06:02,000 –> 00:06:03,500
faith.
The elders obtained, a good
88
00:06:03,500 –> 00:06:06,500
report.
And by faith, we believe that
89
00:06:06,500 –> 00:06:11,800
the worlds were made by the word
of God, and now he’s going to
90
00:06:11,800 –> 00:06:17,000
move on to say, well, I’m voice
safe in York and by faith, Noah,
91
00:06:17,000 –> 00:06:19,700
and by faith Abraham and so on
and so on.
92
00:06:20,500 –> 00:06:23,400
And the point, the Apostle
wanted to make was remember that
93
00:06:23,400 –> 00:06:28,100
creative spark that happened in
Genesis when God said and it was
94
00:06:28,100 –> 00:06:34,200
done there was a there was a
deep-seated lesson wrapped up in
95
00:06:34,200 –> 00:06:38,100
that philosophy that was what
God did to Creation.
96
00:06:38,100 –> 00:06:42,000
He wants to do to you.
The way God speaks he wants
97
00:06:42,000 –> 00:06:45,500
something to happen.
He wants that creative energy to
98
00:06:45,500 –> 00:06:49,300
be translated into action and by
faith, we believe that the
99
00:06:49,300 –> 00:06:52,700
worlds were made by the word of
God, so that things which are
100
00:06:52,707 –> 00:06:55,800
made are not certain things
which are seen are not made of
101
00:06:55,800 –> 00:06:59,700
things which do appear by faith.
Enoch and one is going to go on
102
00:06:59,707 –> 00:07:02,700
to give you now is a catalog of
people who followed that
103
00:07:02,700 –> 00:07:06,500
creative model, God spoke, and
it was done.
104
00:07:06,600 –> 00:07:10,100
So when God said to Enoch, he
believed it and he did it.
105
00:07:10,700 –> 00:07:14,100
And when God said to Noah, Noah
to build an ark for the saving
106
00:07:14,100 –> 00:07:18,700
of your house, Noah did it.
There was a creative spark from
107
00:07:18,700 –> 00:07:22,300
God’s word and there was a
response and that’s what we’re
108
00:07:22,300 –> 00:07:24,400
to learn.
I mean we’re broad brush now
109
00:07:24,400 –> 00:07:29,300
aren’t we from Genesis chapter 1
God said and it was done and the
110
00:07:29,300 –> 00:07:30,800
one thing that tends not to
happen.
111
00:07:30,800 –> 00:07:34,700
So instinctively where you God
speaks is that human beings
112
00:07:34,700 –> 00:07:39,000
become into the image of God.
When God said, let there be
113
00:07:39,000 –> 00:07:46,100
light, there was when God said,
let us make man in our image and
114
00:07:46,100 –> 00:07:50,800
after our likeness, The process
took a little longer.
115
00:07:52,300 –> 00:07:55,200
And in fact it’s not quite done,
is it?
116
00:07:57,000 –> 00:08:00,600
because the only thing that
doesn’t respond as instinctively
117
00:08:00,600 –> 00:08:06,500
as everything else in creation,
To the voice of God is you mean?
118
00:08:07,700 –> 00:08:11,100
It’s the great irony, isn’t it?
That the one Pinnacle of God’s
119
00:08:11,100 –> 00:08:19,100
creation doesn’t as naturally
inherently automatically Behave
120
00:08:19,100 –> 00:08:25,500
in a way, that is a natural
consequence of the creative word
121
00:08:25,500 –> 00:08:27,800
with, which it was made by God
in the beginning.
122
00:08:29,600 –> 00:08:32,000
And that’s why this word is laid
out before us, isn’t it?
123
00:08:32,200 –> 00:08:36,799
This word is able to make you
wise unto salvation.
124
00:08:36,799 –> 00:08:42,500
This word is enabled to embed
itself in the recesses of your
125
00:08:42,500 –> 00:08:45,200
hearts and minds and to create
change.
126
00:08:46,100 –> 00:08:50,900
And to gradually slowly turn it
into men and women in the image
127
00:08:50,900 –> 00:08:53,900
and after the likeness of God
himself, and it’s the reason in
128
00:08:53,900 –> 00:08:55,000
a way, it, isn’t it?
Why?
129
00:08:55,200 –> 00:08:57,700
When John introduces us to the
Lord, Jesus Christ, at the
130
00:08:57,700 –> 00:09:01,800
beginning of his gospel, he
describes him as the word made
131
00:09:01,800 –> 00:09:04,000
flesh.
Doesn’t he, and he’s taking you
132
00:09:04,000 –> 00:09:06,800
right back to Genesis again,
isn’t he said, I want you to now
133
00:09:06,800 –> 00:09:10,100
see that creative process in the
life of a man.
134
00:09:11,100 –> 00:09:14,400
You have seen that before in
quite the way, you’re now going
135
00:09:14,400 –> 00:09:17,100
to see it in the Lord Jesus
Christ, that when God said, let
136
00:09:17,100 –> 00:09:20,400
there be light and there was I
want you to see now says John
137
00:09:20,400 –> 00:09:24,200
what that looks like when God
said to the Lord Jesus Christ,
138
00:09:24,200 –> 00:09:28,600
you know, and spoke to him and
filled him with his word.
139
00:09:28,700 –> 00:09:33,100
What that look like in action.
And John now is going to present
140
00:09:33,100 –> 00:09:36,300
the Lord Jesus Christ.
In this way, we should come with
141
00:09:36,300 –> 00:09:41,300
me to John’s gospel chapter 6,
because the Lord Jesus himself.
142
00:09:41,300 –> 00:09:45,000
Now is presented by John here as
one.
143
00:09:45,000 –> 00:09:50,200
Who when he speaks that?
What that word is powerful and
144
00:09:50,300 –> 00:09:53,400
and gives life John chapter 6.
And you remember the occasion
145
00:09:53,400 –> 00:09:55,700
here.
This is the end of the discourse
146
00:09:55,800 –> 00:10:01,200
after the feeding of the 5000
and these are the words of the
147
00:10:01,400 –> 00:10:06,100
Jesus Christ, John 656, he who
eats my flesh and drinks.
148
00:10:06,100 –> 00:10:09,200
My blood abides in me.
And I in him as the living,
149
00:10:09,200 –> 00:10:12,100
father, sent me and I live by
the father.
150
00:10:12,100 –> 00:10:17,000
So he that eats me, even he will
live by me.
151
00:10:17,200 –> 00:10:20,100
This is the bread which came
down from heaven, not as your
152
00:10:20,100 –> 00:10:22,500
father’s did.
Eat Manna and a dead.
153
00:10:22,500 –> 00:10:26,200
He that eats of this bread shall
live forever as very challenging
154
00:10:26,200 –> 00:10:27,400
statement.
The Lord Jesus Christ.
155
00:10:27,400 –> 00:10:31,600
He’s using these extraordinary
multiple metaphors about Eating
156
00:10:31,600 –> 00:10:34,300
his flesh and the bread from
heaven.
157
00:10:34,300 –> 00:10:37,200
And in fact, in first 60, it
says many of his disciples when
158
00:10:37,200 –> 00:10:42,800
they heard this said, this is a
hard saying who can hear it?
159
00:10:44,600 –> 00:10:48,500
But then Jesus goes on to say,
verse 62, what in?
160
00:10:48,500 –> 00:10:53,100
If you will see the son of man
Ascend of where he was before,
161
00:10:54,900 –> 00:10:59,100
It’s the spirit that quickens
makes you alive.
162
00:10:59,500 –> 00:11:02,800
The flesh profits.
Nothing the words that I speak
163
00:11:02,800 –> 00:11:06,000
unto you.
They are spirit and they are
164
00:11:06,000 –> 00:11:08,800
Life.
As a beautiful thing that is
165
00:11:08,800 –> 00:11:10,700
there.
That’s that’s why we’re here,
166
00:11:10,700 –> 00:11:12,100
isn’t it?
Because the words of the Lord
167
00:11:12,100 –> 00:11:15,500
Jesus Christ and not just
interesting They all
168
00:11:15,500 –> 00:11:19,200
interesting.
But that their intention there,
169
00:11:19,500 –> 00:11:22,700
they’re driving force is to
instill life.
170
00:11:23,200 –> 00:11:25,800
And you might think yourself of
already got my life you know,
171
00:11:25,800 –> 00:11:27,900
I’m here and breathing the
heart’s pumping.
172
00:11:29,000 –> 00:11:32,700
Clearly, Jesus means something
more than what you’ve got
173
00:11:32,700 –> 00:11:35,400
already.
There is a, there is an essence
174
00:11:35,400 –> 00:11:40,400
of life that can that can be
attained by the embracing of the
175
00:11:40,400 –> 00:11:43,700
power of the word of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
176
00:11:43,700 –> 00:11:49,000
That the Lord Jesus wants to
wants to convey here.
177
00:11:49,200 –> 00:11:51,800
Now, it’s worth just thinking
about this word life for a
178
00:11:51,808 –> 00:11:54,700
moment to make sure we’ve
really, we’ve really understood
179
00:11:54,700 –> 00:11:59,200
it because particularly the Lord
Jesus uses it because There’s
180
00:11:59,200 –> 00:12:01,300
just one the word here in the
English.
181
00:12:01,400 –> 00:12:04,500
For these Greek words that are
being used by the Lord Jesus
182
00:12:04,500 –> 00:12:16,500
Christ, but more than that,
Never mind.
183
00:12:16,800 –> 00:12:18,700
We’re here, because we can look
at ourselves.
184
00:12:19,700 –> 00:12:21,200
There’s more than one Greek
words.
185
00:12:21,200 –> 00:12:23,700
Let’s just look at them.
The first time they appear
186
00:12:23,700 –> 00:12:25,300
actually on the lips of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
187
00:12:25,500 –> 00:12:45,600
Can we me to Matthew chapter 6?
25, you know this verse
188
00:12:46,300 –> 00:12:51,500
therefore I say unto you take no
thought for your life what you
189
00:12:51,500 –> 00:12:54,300
will eat or what you will drink,
nor yet for your body, what you
190
00:12:54,300 –> 00:12:59,500
will put on is not the life more
than food and the body more than
191
00:12:59,500 –> 00:13:01,400
Raymond’s.
There’s any know, they, the
192
00:13:01,400 –> 00:13:05,300
Greek word that Jesus is using
here that’s translated in
193
00:13:05,300 –> 00:13:11,400
English life.
Little bit of Greek psyche right
194
00:13:11,500 –> 00:13:13,400
from where we get the word
psyche.
195
00:13:13,700 –> 00:13:15,700
Okay?
So this is the Greek word psyche
196
00:13:15,700 –> 00:13:17,800
in, you’ll discover in the next
10 seconds.
197
00:13:17,800 –> 00:13:21,300
I’m not a Greek specialist.
So I’ve already of the limits
198
00:13:21,300 –> 00:13:25,400
here and the word is it’s used
by the Lord Jesus Christ here.
199
00:13:25,400 –> 00:13:28,600
As you can still see, coming
from the context here is not
200
00:13:28,600 –> 00:13:32,600
talking necessarily about our
spiritual life here.
201
00:13:33,600 –> 00:13:38,200
Is he take no thought for your
life, what you will eat, or what
202
00:13:38,200 –> 00:13:39,300
you will drink, or for your
body?
203
00:13:39,300 –> 00:13:43,400
What you put on the, the life is
more than food and the body.
204
00:13:43,400 –> 00:13:45,600
More than raiment and the Greek
word Jesus used here.
205
00:13:45,600 –> 00:13:49,600
Was this word psyche and he’s
talking here about the more
206
00:13:49,800 –> 00:13:52,000
physical aspects of our life,
isn’t he?
207
00:13:52,000 –> 00:13:55,800
That we ought not to be worrying
about life ought to be more than
208
00:13:55,800 –> 00:13:59,500
these things and all your foods
to do for the next chapter to
209
00:13:59,500 –> 00:14:03,100
see again, an English word life
but it completely different word
210
00:14:03,100 –> 00:14:06,200
you By the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mostly chapter 7.
211
00:14:08,400 –> 00:14:10,600
Again verse you’ll know really
well.
212
00:14:10,600 –> 00:14:16,300
First 30, enter in at the strait
gate for wide is the gate and
213
00:14:16,300 –> 00:14:19,400
Broad is the way that leads to
destruction and many there.
214
00:14:19,400 –> 00:14:25,300
Be that go in there at Because
Strait is the gate and narrow is
215
00:14:25,300 –> 00:14:29,700
the way which leads to life.
And few there.
216
00:14:29,700 –> 00:14:33,800
Be that find it.
Totally different words here.
217
00:14:34,900 –> 00:14:36,700
Still translated life in
English.
218
00:14:36,700 –> 00:14:38,300
Anybody know the Greek word
here.
219
00:14:39,500 –> 00:14:44,000
This is Zoe.
Okay, so if we got 30 minutes
220
00:14:44,000 –> 00:14:47,600
here, lovely words.
I’m pretty much on every
221
00:14:47,600 –> 00:14:50,100
occasion.
This word is used by the Lord
222
00:14:50,100 –> 00:14:52,000
Jesus Christ.
You can tell the essence of
223
00:14:52,000 –> 00:14:55,500
this, yeah.
That those who find the narrow
224
00:14:55,500 –> 00:14:58,800
gate discovered that it leads to
life.
225
00:14:59,400 –> 00:15:02,000
And this word means eternal
life.
226
00:15:02,000 –> 00:15:05,600
It means the quality of life
that goes beyond what you eat or
227
00:15:05,600 –> 00:15:07,600
drink or the clothes that you
wear.
228
00:15:07,900 –> 00:15:13,400
This is the kind of life that
the Lord Jesus wants to fill us
229
00:15:13,400 –> 00:15:18,500
with, and to give us by Word.
If we are willing to listen to
230
00:15:18,500 –> 00:15:21,800
it and I don’t remember in John
6 where we were a moment ago
231
00:15:21,800 –> 00:15:25,900
when when that discourse ended
Jesus said to the disciples
232
00:15:25,900 –> 00:15:29,000
will.
You also go away and remember
233
00:15:29,000 –> 00:15:33,600
how Peter responded to the Lord?
He said, Lord to whom, shall we
234
00:15:33,600 –> 00:15:36,900
go?
You have the words?
235
00:15:38,000 –> 00:15:42,800
Of eternal life.
If ever, you ever think that
236
00:15:42,800 –> 00:15:46,300
Peter was a rash person who
didn’t think about what he said,
237
00:15:46,300 –> 00:15:49,300
that’s not a fair representation
about.
238
00:15:49,300 –> 00:15:53,100
He was the one person up there,
who fully understood everything
239
00:15:53,100 –> 00:15:56,100
Jesus said, Lord to whom, shall
we go?
240
00:15:56,100 –> 00:16:01,000
You have the words?
Of eternal life.
241
00:16:01,300 –> 00:16:04,800
Will you come with me to John 5
is what just just with that
242
00:16:04,800 –> 00:16:08,700
introduction?
Which took most of the tool is
243
00:16:08,700 –> 00:16:13,400
always the case?
Of course, I want us to think
244
00:16:13,400 –> 00:16:16,600
now about this Shout with which
the Lord will be saved.
245
00:16:18,300 –> 00:16:21,100
What was it, what will it be?
Do you think that the Lord Jesus
246
00:16:21,100 –> 00:16:24,700
Will shout?
And how will you hear it?
247
00:16:25,600 –> 00:16:27,600
How will you feel when you hear
it?
248
00:16:28,300 –> 00:16:32,500
And how will you respond?
Will it be like my kids down the
249
00:16:32,500 –> 00:16:34,200
garden when they’re being asked
to tell you?
250
00:16:34,200 –> 00:16:37,200
They’re rude.
Or will it be the most
251
00:16:37,200 –> 00:16:42,300
extraordinary, exciting sound?
You’ve ever heard this?
252
00:16:42,300 –> 00:16:46,400
Shout from the Lord Jesus
Christ, the reception here in
253
00:16:46,400 –> 00:16:51,000
John 5 because John describes
the resurrection and he
254
00:16:51,000 –> 00:16:54,700
describes it in two stages which
when you read it kind of
255
00:16:54,700 –> 00:16:58,100
cursorily kind of causes you if
you’re careful a bit of a
256
00:16:58,100 –> 00:17:02,700
challenge because if he takes it
into steps, in order to notice
257
00:17:02,700 –> 00:17:04,900
this really carefully.
So the first one is in John,
258
00:17:04,900 –> 00:17:09,300
5:24 G5.
Verily, verily.
259
00:17:09,300 –> 00:17:14,200
I say unto you.
The hour is coming and now is
260
00:17:15,000 –> 00:17:19,000
when the dead, shall hear the
voice of the Son of God and
261
00:17:19,000 –> 00:17:23,800
they, that hear shall live.
Which Greek word you think of
262
00:17:23,800 –> 00:17:26,000
is?
It’s Zoe.
263
00:17:26,200 –> 00:17:28,900
No question here.
This is the life that will
264
00:17:28,900 –> 00:17:31,500
happen.
When the dead will hear the
265
00:17:31,500 –> 00:17:34,900
voice of the Son of God and you
think yourself, well, when’s
266
00:17:34,900 –> 00:17:37,200
that then?
And and of whom is he speaking?
267
00:17:37,300 –> 00:17:39,500
Because all you need to do is
come down, a couple of verses
268
00:17:39,700 –> 00:17:41,500
and Jesus almost says the same
things.
269
00:17:41,500 –> 00:17:44,600
Again, only this time, it’s a
little different verse 28
270
00:17:44,600 –> 00:17:47,600
mobile, not at this, for the
hour is coming in the which all
271
00:17:47,600 –> 00:17:51,800
the tire in the graves, will
hear his voice and shall come
272
00:17:51,800 –> 00:17:54,300
forth.
They needed to have done good
273
00:17:54,500 –> 00:17:59,900
unto the resurrection of life.
Same Greek word and they that
274
00:17:59,900 –> 00:18:03,300
have done evil unto the
resurrection of damnation or
275
00:18:03,300 –> 00:18:05,900
judgments.
So two different types of
276
00:18:05,900 –> 00:18:08,400
Resurrection happening here.
And I put it to you burn
277
00:18:08,400 –> 00:18:10,800
sisters, they’re both.
They both happen in very
278
00:18:10,800 –> 00:18:16,900
different time scales.
The first one there in verse 25
279
00:18:17,100 –> 00:18:20,600
is the one that you and I have
the opportunity to engage in
280
00:18:20,600 –> 00:18:24,000
right now.
And that’s clear to it’s worth
281
00:18:24,000 –> 00:18:26,500
just I was going to do it on the
screen but Collins and I’m not
282
00:18:26,500 –> 00:18:30,100
going to fuck around it because
then all the time we got just to
283
00:18:30,100 –> 00:18:31,900
play Spot.
The Difference between the two
284
00:18:31,900 –> 00:18:35,500
versus one of the first things
you’ll notice there in verse 25
285
00:18:35,500 –> 00:18:38,800
is very, very unsafe to use as
Jesus, the hour is coming.
286
00:18:38,800 –> 00:18:44,500
And now is is here.
Now, when the dead will hear the
287
00:18:44,500 –> 00:18:48,900
voice of the Son of God and
those who hear, not everybody,
288
00:18:49,200 –> 00:18:54,300
those who hear will live and
just look at the Then verse 24,
289
00:18:54,300 –> 00:18:57,600
verily, verily, I say unto you,
he who hears my word and
290
00:18:57,600 –> 00:19:02,100
believes on him, who sent me has
everlasting life and will not
291
00:19:02,100 –> 00:19:06,300
come into judgment but has
passed from Death to life and
292
00:19:06,300 –> 00:19:07,900
you can see what the Lord Jesus
saying.
293
00:19:08,000 –> 00:19:11,700
This Resurrection is happening.
Now this is this lovely use of
294
00:19:11,700 –> 00:19:15,200
metaphor in the New Testament
where people who are alive can
295
00:19:15,200 –> 00:19:18,200
be described as dead and people
who are dead.
296
00:19:18,200 –> 00:19:22,000
Can be described as being alive.
Oh, Jesus doing just that he
297
00:19:22,000 –> 00:19:25,500
said, You who were dead in
trespasses and sins have the
298
00:19:25,500 –> 00:19:29,600
opportunity by the power of my
word to be brought to life.
299
00:19:29,600 –> 00:19:35,200
Now to be given this sense of
Zoe life fall eternal life, not
300
00:19:35,200 –> 00:19:38,500
in its completeness that would
be done of course until the
301
00:19:38,500 –> 00:19:41,700
ultimate Resurrection but that
Resurrection, no question.
302
00:19:41,700 –> 00:19:45,600
If you want to engage in the
second you have to do the first.
303
00:19:45,600 –> 00:19:48,900
You can’t have one without the
other only those who will be
304
00:19:48,900 –> 00:19:52,300
raised and will be with the Lord
forever will be those.
305
00:19:52,600 –> 00:19:55,300
Were brought to life in the Zoe
sense.
306
00:19:55,600 –> 00:20:00,800
Not in the psyche sense.
Hopefully, we’ll be able to
307
00:20:00,800 –> 00:20:04,700
engage fully in the second,
which is why he makes the
308
00:20:04,700 –> 00:20:08,800
emphasis there in verse 28.
The hour is coming in, which all
309
00:20:08,800 –> 00:20:13,700
who are in the graves.
I will hear his voice.
310
00:20:14,400 –> 00:20:15,600
That’s what the Apostle Paul is
talking about.
311
00:20:15,600 –> 00:20:19,900
If this alone isn’t the Lord
will descend with a shout and
312
00:20:19,900 –> 00:20:26,100
the dead in Christ will rise.
First There is a Time coming,
313
00:20:26,100 –> 00:20:29,400
when all those who are in the
graves will hear his voice and
314
00:20:29,400 –> 00:20:33,500
they will come forth some to the
resurrection of life.
315
00:20:34,700 –> 00:20:39,300
And some of the resurrection of
of judgments, you can’t have one
316
00:20:39,300 –> 00:20:42,500
without the other.
And it just shows, you Disney
317
00:20:42,500 –> 00:20:46,800
Princesses how powerful the
voice of the Lord Jesus is.
318
00:20:48,000 –> 00:20:52,000
He commanded the demons to
depart from those who were
319
00:20:52,000 –> 00:20:57,300
tormented, Durham with a
commanding word and out there.
320
00:20:57,300 –> 00:21:02,200
King He spoke to them in years
he would never heard a thing.
321
00:21:03,300 –> 00:21:04,600
Remember the man to whom the
Lord.
322
00:21:04,600 –> 00:21:09,600
Jesus said, if father, be opened
and these ears which had never
323
00:21:09,600 –> 00:21:13,200
heard a sound somehow, the voice
of Jesus could penetrate.
324
00:21:13,300 –> 00:21:15,800
Don’t ears that had never heard
anything.
325
00:21:18,200 –> 00:21:24,900
He rebuked the wind and the
waves and they obeyed him and he
326
00:21:24,900 –> 00:21:28,600
always raise the dead brother
and sisters with his voice.
327
00:21:31,100 –> 00:21:37,200
The the daughter of gyrus it was
with a word tell if the Kumar he
328
00:21:37,208 –> 00:21:43,100
said Remember the Widow, it name
your mum, I say to you he said
329
00:21:43,200 –> 00:21:49,700
arrives, God all Jesus always
raised the dead by speaking with
330
00:21:49,700 –> 00:21:53,400
the power of His voice and the
Creative Energy that was always
331
00:21:53,400 –> 00:21:56,600
there in the word of God.
And in the in the power of God
332
00:21:56,700 –> 00:21:58,800
and did you notice what it says
here in John?
333
00:21:59,900 –> 00:22:05,400
John 14:29, they will come
forth.
334
00:22:05,900 –> 00:22:09,500
I want you to notice that that
phrase Brenda sisters because
335
00:22:09,700 –> 00:22:13,200
there is a case study in John’s
Gospel of that very thing being
336
00:22:13,200 –> 00:22:16,400
done in.
John chapter 11, you remember
337
00:22:16,400 –> 00:22:26,000
this occasion?
This was the raising of Lazarus
338
00:22:26,600 –> 00:22:28,900
and I’m going to finish by
suggesting to you brothers,
339
00:22:28,900 –> 00:22:31,300
sisters that this might be the
shan’t.
340
00:22:32,700 –> 00:22:36,000
But the Apostle Paul was
referring to, I think there’s
341
00:22:36,000 –> 00:22:37,600
only two occasions were told the
Lord.
342
00:22:37,600 –> 00:22:42,400
Jesus raised his voice.
I think only two, I can
343
00:22:42,400 –> 00:22:45,200
remember.
And this is one.
344
00:22:46,800 –> 00:22:53,100
When Jesus came to the tomb of
Lazarus verse. 42.
345
00:22:53,100 –> 00:22:57,300
Jesus said to father in prayer,
I knew that you hear me, always.
346
00:22:57,700 –> 00:23:00,600
But because of the people, which
stand by our said that they may
347
00:23:00,600 –> 00:23:05,800
believe that you have sent me
when those he had spoken, he
348
00:23:05,800 –> 00:23:12,200
cried with a loud voice Lazarus.
Come forth.
349
00:23:13,200 –> 00:23:16,100
And that’s exactly what he said
in John chapter 5 was it?
350
00:23:16,100 –> 00:23:18,100
This is the, this is the
evidence.
351
00:23:18,100 –> 00:23:21,700
Now to the Jews that this this
prophecy was going to be made in
352
00:23:21,700 –> 00:23:24,900
reality, that there is a Time
coming, when all who are in the
353
00:23:24,900 –> 00:23:29,100
graves, will hear his voice and
they will come form, and you’re
354
00:23:29,100 –> 00:23:31,800
purposely presents.
Jesus now is standing outside
355
00:23:31,800 –> 00:23:36,400
this to shouting into this to
Lazarus come forth.
356
00:23:39,100 –> 00:23:40,900
And the voice of the Lord.
Jesus Christ.
357
00:23:40,900 –> 00:23:44,400
Princesses was so powerful.
It Could Wake the Dead.
358
00:23:47,200 –> 00:23:52,500
And he who was dead.
Came forth bound hand and foot
359
00:23:52,900 –> 00:23:55,100
with grave clothes and that
lovely burnt sisters.
360
00:23:55,500 –> 00:23:57,800
There’s no wonder.
Is it that the Lord Jesus would
361
00:23:57,800 –> 00:24:03,300
later.
Say my sheep know my voice, And
362
00:24:03,300 –> 00:24:06,700
I will give them eternal life.
Drink what Jesus said for Pilots
363
00:24:06,900 –> 00:24:09,500
for this cause came I into the
world that I should bear witness
364
00:24:09,500 –> 00:24:12,600
of the truth.
Everyone who is of the truth
365
00:24:12,800 –> 00:24:17,000
hears, my voice.
There is a resonance in the
366
00:24:17,000 –> 00:24:19,300
hearts and minds of our
ancestors of those who have
367
00:24:19,300 –> 00:24:22,900
embraced the truth, that
recognized the voice of the Lord
368
00:24:22,900 –> 00:24:26,600
Jesus Christ.
When they hear it, that’s the
369
00:24:26,600 –> 00:24:29,600
Wonder of the power of the word.
Isn’t it?
370
00:24:29,600 –> 00:24:33,300
Of the Lord Jesus Christ.
And the question is, Princesses
371
00:24:33,300 –> 00:24:38,000
weather.
We have really heard the voice
372
00:24:38,200 –> 00:24:42,800
of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Because if you want to hear it
373
00:24:42,800 –> 00:24:46,700
on that day, if you want that
voice to break the sound barrier
374
00:24:46,700 –> 00:24:51,200
of the two.
And wake you from your sleep,
375
00:24:51,200 –> 00:24:54,400
even when no other were in a
place where no other voices can
376
00:24:54,400 –> 00:24:56,900
reach.
I’m sure there are some who
377
00:24:56,900 –> 00:25:00,300
would have loved the opportunity
to have spoken to those who are
378
00:25:00,308 –> 00:25:03,700
asleep for your voice, still to
be heard.
379
00:25:06,300 –> 00:25:07,700
Can you imagine what it will be
against?
380
00:25:07,700 –> 00:25:12,700
This is on the day when he
returns that, that voice will be
381
00:25:12,700 –> 00:25:14,000
heard.
Yeah.
382
00:25:14,000 –> 00:25:17,600
But there is nowhere for those
who have heard his voice.
383
00:25:17,600 –> 00:25:20,700
Now where there’s no way they
will not recognize it.
384
00:25:22,100 –> 00:25:27,200
When it comes and it is spoken.
Finally at that reach out when
385
00:25:27,200 –> 00:25:31,900
the Lord is here.
And in John chapter 12, if you
386
00:25:31,900 –> 00:25:34,500
just I need to stop it.
If you just scan your eyes down
387
00:25:34,500 –> 00:25:38,100
the events, that happened next,
it’s almost if John plays out
388
00:25:38,100 –> 00:25:40,000
now.
And the events here, a
389
00:25:40,000 –> 00:25:43,400
fulfillment of what Paul and
described in 1 Thessalonians 4,
390
00:25:43,400 –> 00:25:46,400
we read it together as we’re
just as we started you want to
391
00:25:46,400 –> 00:25:49,600
miss that moment for you to hear
the context of the words we’re
392
00:25:49,600 –> 00:25:53,900
thinking about this weekend.
How the Lord will descend with a
393
00:25:53,908 –> 00:25:56,600
shout with the voice of the
Archangel with the trumpet of
394
00:25:56,600 –> 00:26:00,700
God and the dead in Christ will
rise first and Under and then we
395
00:26:00,700 –> 00:26:04,600
will together be joined with
them to go meet the Lord and
396
00:26:04,600 –> 00:26:07,500
hearing, I don’t know if you
noticed before in John, chapter
397
00:26:07,500 –> 00:26:10,900
12, there’s a crowd who leave
Bethany with the Lord Jesus
398
00:26:10,900 –> 00:26:14,800
Christ with that with those who
have been raised from the dead,
399
00:26:15,100 –> 00:26:17,900
lovely seeing this.
So Jesus begins to make his way
400
00:26:17,900 –> 00:26:21,600
to Jerusalem for the final week
of his life and he’s bringing
401
00:26:21,600 –> 00:26:24,500
with him a man who’s been raised
from the dead.
402
00:26:24,700 –> 00:26:27,800
There was a man in that kid that
company who has literally been
403
00:26:27,800 –> 00:26:32,000
raised from the dead and they’re
all I’m talking about it and you
404
00:26:32,000 –> 00:26:34,400
can sense that just the words
that come out of here, in John
405
00:26:34,400 –> 00:26:39,400
chapter 12, let’s just pick it
up in verse, verse 12 on the
406
00:26:39,400 –> 00:26:43,200
next day, many people that would
come to the feast when they
407
00:26:43,200 –> 00:26:48,600
heard that Jesus was coming to
Jerusalem to branches of palm
408
00:26:48,600 –> 00:26:53,800
trees and went out to meet him
and cried blessed, is he who
409
00:26:53,800 –> 00:26:56,300
comes in the name of the Lord
Hosanna.
410
00:26:56,400 –> 00:26:58,700
So did you see that?
There is a group of there’s a
411
00:26:58,700 –> 00:27:01,400
group coming from Beth.
Lee was my services with them
412
00:27:01,500 –> 00:27:03,800
and there’s a group here in
Jerusalem who have heard that
413
00:27:03,800 –> 00:27:09,200
Jesus coming, and when they hear
that, he’s coming, they leave
414
00:27:09,200 –> 00:27:12,500
Jerusalem and they go out to
meet him and John careful.
415
00:27:12,500 –> 00:27:15,600
He’s positioning these words.
This is a cameo of the coming of
416
00:27:15,600 –> 00:27:24,300
the Lord, Jesus Christ.
The second time verse 17, The
417
00:27:24,300 –> 00:27:28,500
people therefore that was with
him when he called Lazarus out
418
00:27:28,500 –> 00:27:33,500
of the grave and raised him from
the dead bear record and for
419
00:27:33,500 –> 00:27:38,900
this, cause the people also net
him for they had heard that he
420
00:27:38,900 –> 00:27:43,500
had done this miracle and the
Pharisees Marvel that all the
421
00:27:43,500 –> 00:27:47,200
world is gone after him.
So you can see this great
422
00:27:47,300 –> 00:27:51,100
meeting of two groups of people.
One who have been raised from
423
00:27:51,100 –> 00:27:53,000
the dead.
What do you have heard these?
424
00:27:53,000 –> 00:27:56,200
Raise the dead and Coming out
with palm branches shouting,
425
00:27:56,200 –> 00:27:59,200
Hosanna blessed.
Is he who comes in the name of
426
00:27:59,200 –> 00:28:02,200
the Lord and Jesus?
Almost, ironically States,
427
00:28:02,200 –> 00:28:05,100
doesn’t hear you will not see me
again until you will say,
428
00:28:05,300 –> 00:28:09,000
hosanna blessed is he who comes
in the name of the Lord and John
429
00:28:09,100 –> 00:28:11,500
paints.
This picture is a lovely Cameo
430
00:28:11,700 –> 00:28:15,000
of these two companies.
Those would be raised those who
431
00:28:15,000 –> 00:28:18,700
are alive and remain and they’re
coming together to meet the Lord
432
00:28:18,700 –> 00:28:22,200
with their palm branches, crying
out, Hosanna.
433
00:28:26,100 –> 00:28:28,600
And John beautifully have that
quote as need from Zachariah
434
00:28:28,600 –> 00:28:32,800
nine, which goes on to say, by
the way, that the Lord God will
435
00:28:32,800 –> 00:28:38,000
blow the trumpet.
And of course, it’s in Zachariah
436
00:28:38,000 –> 00:28:42,000
where we meet and hear the voice
of the archangel.
437
00:28:43,500 –> 00:28:46,100
Well done.
Sis is let’s end your session
438
00:28:46,100 –> 00:28:50,100
with but let’s not be under any
illusion about the power of the
439
00:28:50,100 –> 00:28:53,800
word of the Lord Jesus Christ,
and the need to hear it.
440
00:28:53,800 –> 00:28:58,700
Now this shout that is that is
going to be made brand sisters
441
00:28:58,700 –> 00:29:01,800
on the day of Resurrection, is
one that is being shouted by the
442
00:29:01,800 –> 00:29:05,500
Lord Jesus Christ every day, and
the challenges, sometimes we
443
00:29:05,500 –> 00:29:09,200
play in the garden and and the
voice gets a bit dim, doesn’t
444
00:29:09,200 –> 00:29:11,500
it?
And we and we wonder whether or
445
00:29:11,500 –> 00:29:13,100
not we make it, I’ll do it
later.
446
00:29:13,300 –> 00:29:15,600
I’ll come in a minute.
I was just finishing what I was
447
00:29:15,600 –> 00:29:17,600
doing there.
All the standard answers on
448
00:29:17,600 –> 00:29:19,300
there, when you call them in
from the garden.
449
00:29:19,300 –> 00:29:22,200
I was going to come.
I really when I don’t know
450
00:29:22,400 –> 00:29:27,900
later.
The name biron sisters when we
451
00:29:27,900 –> 00:29:30,100
hear the voice of the Lord Jesus
Christ.
452
00:29:30,100 –> 00:29:37,200
Speaking, we are quick to hear
that voice and to respond
453
00:29:37,500 –> 00:29:41,300
because you know, France is the
waves and the winds still know
454
00:29:41,300 –> 00:29:45,200
his name.
The voice that could review the
455
00:29:45,200 –> 00:29:50,700
sea and drive out demons that
they still respond.
456
00:29:51,400 –> 00:29:54,900
The wind and wave, haven’t lost
their sense of the Grandeur of
457
00:29:54,900 –> 00:29:58,600
the Lord Jesus Christ.
And they be releasing our daily
458
00:29:58,600 –> 00:30:02,100
living, as we listen to his word
and read his word.
459
00:30:03,300 –> 00:30:05,200
We don’t lose the sense of
majesty.
460
00:30:06,200 –> 00:30:08,400
Of the lips.
From Hugo’s words, come.
461
00:30:09,700 –> 00:30:14,200
So that one day that voice will
penetrate you with the tools and
462
00:30:14,200 –> 00:30:41,500
the dead in Christ will rise.
