From the Midwest Christadelphian Bible School 2022.
Class 5 used for GCT Episode 207.
00:00:00,600 –> 00:00:02,700
We are ready to begin our second
class.
2
00:00:03,400 –> 00:00:07,200
Our speaker is our brother,
Jason Robinson in the theme, for
3
00:00:07,200 –> 00:00:10,200
brother, Robinson’s classes.
This week is the tales of the
4
00:00:10,200 –> 00:00:13,800
Giants.
And today’s class is entitled
5
00:00:14,000 –> 00:00:17,200
the tribe of giant Fighters for
the Jason.
6
00:00:25,000 –> 00:00:29,700
Thank you very much for the Paul
and a good morning, but brothers
7
00:00:29,700 –> 00:00:34,100
and sisters.
It is our final morning together
8
00:00:34,500 –> 00:00:38,300
which is crazy.
As I say it, I’ve thoroughly
9
00:00:38,300 –> 00:00:41,900
enjoyed the week and thank you
very much for the invite out
10
00:00:41,900 –> 00:00:44,600
this week.
My family and I have had a
11
00:00:44,700 –> 00:00:47,800
fabulous time here at Midwest
Bible School.
12
00:00:49,500 –> 00:00:54,500
In case we didn’t notice about
our week, there was a tribe that
13
00:00:54,500 –> 00:01:00,200
produces a lot of giants layers.
And as we were going through, we
14
00:01:00,400 –> 00:01:04,400
consistently saw how these giant
Fighters were coming from this
15
00:01:04,400 –> 00:01:08,200
tribe of Judah.
Now after today, I have some
16
00:01:08,200 –> 00:01:10,800
great news.
You will never have to hear
17
00:01:10,800 –> 00:01:12,300
that.
Crazy Californian said, the word
18
00:01:12,300 –> 00:01:15,500
giant ever again.
Today is the last day.
19
00:01:15,700 –> 00:01:16,700
All right.
You guys made it.
20
00:01:17,600 –> 00:01:20,000
But what today is, About is
making what we’ve learned this
21
00:01:20,000 –> 00:01:21,900
week.
Last not just for a day, not the
22
00:01:21,900 –> 00:01:24,900
end of next week, not even the
rest of your lives.
23
00:01:24,900 –> 00:01:27,900
But actually, what scriptures
does a very good job of showing?
24
00:01:27,900 –> 00:01:32,000
Is that giant slaying is
something that can be passed on.
25
00:01:32,000 –> 00:01:34,400
It’s a trait that we can teach
others.
26
00:01:34,800 –> 00:01:37,500
It certainly was a trait in the
tribe of Judah, almost everyone
27
00:01:37,500 –> 00:01:40,900
who beats giants was from that
tribe, some were adopted into
28
00:01:40,900 –> 00:01:44,600
it, others were born into it,
some Kings, some servants, some
29
00:01:44,600 –> 00:01:49,200
old, some young, but whatever
reason Judah was Great at
30
00:01:49,200 –> 00:01:51,900
beating Giants.
And today’s goal is really
31
00:01:51,900 –> 00:01:55,500
trying to establish the
importance of looking at this
32
00:01:55,500 –> 00:01:59,200
lineage and making family habits
of fighting these Giants.
33
00:02:00,500 –> 00:02:04,100
You see Giants destroying Giants
isn’t something that just you
34
00:02:04,300 –> 00:02:08,300
need to be worried about.
The Giants that we beat starting
35
00:02:08,300 –> 00:02:12,700
next week, starting Monday.
They may be tiny compared to the
36
00:02:12,700 –> 00:02:15,100
Giants that our children will
face.
37
00:02:15,500 –> 00:02:20,400
You see the world has mastered
the art of Designing.
38
00:02:21,900 –> 00:02:25,200
Curating, and customizing
Giants.
39
00:02:26,300 –> 00:02:29,300
To the point that in the lives
of our kids it makes some of us
40
00:02:29,300 –> 00:02:35,000
think that Giants can be good
and pure even deceiving us into
41
00:02:35,000 –> 00:02:38,900
thinking that Giants have the
right to be in our family or in
42
00:02:38,900 –> 00:02:42,500
our Ecclesia.
And so, let’s take a look at
43
00:02:42,500 –> 00:02:44,900
where we’ve come so far this
week together.
44
00:02:46,000 –> 00:02:49,400
It’s been a fantastic week and
we start off on Monday, really
45
00:02:49,400 –> 00:02:53,400
mentioning how we wanted to
build a Persona around our
46
00:02:53,400 –> 00:02:55,800
giant.
We want to spend our week,
47
00:02:55,800 –> 00:03:01,300
making them feel personable,
relatable, but beatable.
48
00:03:02,600 –> 00:03:07,000
I think we may have been
surprised at just how successful
49
00:03:07,800 –> 00:03:10,100
some of us were able to
accomplish that.
50
00:03:10,400 –> 00:03:13,200
You see, as it turns out
scriptures was full of Heroes of
51
00:03:13,200 –> 00:03:16,400
old who fought Giants.
We looked at how Joshua was just
52
00:03:16,400 –> 00:03:18,400
a big book about fighting giants
in the land.
53
00:03:18,500 –> 00:03:21,700
How Deuteronomy, how its Mighty
speech started off with three
54
00:03:21,700 –> 00:03:26,100
chapters on how God would help
anyone, who wanted to defeat
55
00:03:26,100 –> 00:03:29,400
Giants, and from Caleb
scriptures most successful Giant
56
00:03:29,400 –> 00:03:33,000
Slayer to David whose Warrior
career started and Edited with
57
00:03:33,000 –> 00:03:36,300
Giants.
And as I’ve mentioned, I
58
00:03:37,400 –> 00:03:40,200
thoroughly have enjoyed diving
deeper into the wonders of
59
00:03:40,200 –> 00:03:43,100
scripture with you this week and
I sincerely hope we’re all
60
00:03:43,100 –> 00:03:46,000
little more motivated maybe at
the end of this week to go home
61
00:03:46,200 –> 00:03:47,900
from this school and keep
fighting.
62
00:03:48,800 –> 00:03:51,400
So our goal in the final session
really is to focus on looking
63
00:03:51,400 –> 00:03:55,400
ahead.
It’s wonderful if we can fight
64
00:03:55,400 –> 00:03:59,500
and take down Giants.
But I believe scripture places
65
00:03:59,500 –> 00:04:03,400
an equal importance on mothers
and fathers aunts and uncles
66
00:04:03,700 –> 00:04:07,500
grandparents and siblings to try
their best to spread these
67
00:04:07,500 –> 00:04:09,600
principles to another
generation.
68
00:04:10,400 –> 00:04:12,700
Now, before we begin, it’s very
important to understand that.
69
00:04:12,700 –> 00:04:16,700
We all do have free will.
Our children have free will.
70
00:04:17,899 –> 00:04:19,100
We could do everything
flawlessly.
71
00:04:20,300 –> 00:04:23,900
By the book and our children
have that Free Will and can
72
00:04:23,900 –> 00:04:25,900
still choose different paths in
our lives.
73
00:04:26,500 –> 00:04:32,500
This happens, it’s unfortunate
but like, everything prayer love
74
00:04:32,900 –> 00:04:38,700
and seeking Will be necessary.
We will focus our final session
75
00:04:38,800 –> 00:04:43,100
this morning on how scriptures
laid out for us examples of old
76
00:04:43,800 –> 00:04:47,400
of giant slaying parents and
mentors will start off by just
77
00:04:47,400 –> 00:04:49,200
reviewing.
What we didn’t have a ton of
78
00:04:49,200 –> 00:04:52,000
time to get to yesterday, which
was in second, Samuel chapter
79
00:04:52,000 –> 00:04:56,600
21, the last giant is the list
of the four Giants at the end of
80
00:04:56,600 –> 00:05:00,600
Samuel.
These were the brothers, is some
81
00:05:00,600 –> 00:05:04,300
think of Goliath, when David
charge towards Goliath and First
82
00:05:04,300 –> 00:05:07,800
Signal, 17 took five Stones one
for Goliath.
83
00:05:09,000 –> 00:05:12,100
Possibly for, for these brothers
here, they are called the Sons
84
00:05:12,100 –> 00:05:14,700
of the Giant and second same at
21.
85
00:05:15,800 –> 00:05:17,800
They were descendants of the
rafah.
86
00:05:18,100 –> 00:05:20,700
They were the ref, I eme type of
giants.
87
00:05:21,000 –> 00:05:25,000
Now, we looked at yesterday, the
ish Fibonacci, our first, giant
88
00:05:25,000 –> 00:05:28,600
there in verses, 15 to 17.
We saw how this was David’s
89
00:05:28,600 –> 00:05:30,600
final battle.
He concluded this battle.
90
00:05:30,600 –> 00:05:35,800
He grew weary And in fact,
abishai was the one who had to
91
00:05:35,800 –> 00:05:41,200
come to his saving abishai was
the one who slew this giant in
92
00:05:41,200 –> 00:05:47,100
verse 15 to 17 HP Bernard.
But you read at the very end of
93
00:05:47,100 –> 00:05:49,000
verse 17, it says then the men
of David’s.
94
00:05:49,000 –> 00:05:53,000
Swear unto him saying Thou shalt
go no more out with us to
95
00:05:53,000 –> 00:05:56,800
battle.
At the quench, not the light of
96
00:05:56,800 –> 00:06:00,100
Israel.
And these servants, these
97
00:06:00,300 –> 00:06:06,000
Warriors of David hath been so
close to their King, that even
98
00:06:06,000 –> 00:06:09,600
the thought of losing the king
whom they idolized insisted that
99
00:06:09,600 –> 00:06:13,000
he never go to battle again.
And this was David’s, final
100
00:06:13,000 –> 00:06:15,600
battle.
It was a battle in which he grew
101
00:06:15,600 –> 00:06:20,600
weary against a giant.
And it says they did not want
102
00:06:20,600 –> 00:06:26,400
the lamp of Israel. to be
quenched, but a testament to the
103
00:06:26,400 –> 00:06:31,500
Giant Slayer king of Israel, his
army now trained to fight Giants
104
00:06:31,500 –> 00:06:37,500
themselves want to nothing but
the safety of their King We move
105
00:06:37,500 –> 00:06:41,200
on to verse 18 and it says and
it came to pass after this that
106
00:06:41,200 –> 00:06:44,000
there was again a battle with
the Philistines at Gob, then
107
00:06:44,000 –> 00:06:46,500
Civic.
I the hookah theit sluice F
108
00:06:47,000 –> 00:06:52,200
which was of the sons of the ref
am and so saff this next giant
109
00:06:52,200 –> 00:06:56,700
it takes place at gob No one’s
really sure where God is in the
110
00:06:56,700 –> 00:07:00,200
Septuagint translates.
It translates it as gath the
111
00:07:00,200 –> 00:07:05,900
Chronicles account calls.
It geezer But he is slain by a
112
00:07:06,100 –> 00:07:10,200
man by the name of Sigma Chi.
Civic.
113
00:07:10,200 –> 00:07:14,300
I was one of his governmental
officials and military leader of
114
00:07:14,300 –> 00:07:16,900
David.
David had twenty four thousand
115
00:07:16,900 –> 00:07:20,700
soldiers and each month.
The captain of these 24,000
116
00:07:20,700 –> 00:07:23,900
would change the eighth month
belonged to this man.
117
00:07:24,000 –> 00:07:28,200
Sipc I his duty was to serve
David and everything concerning
118
00:07:28,200 –> 00:07:33,600
his army of 24,000 during the
eighth month and he slew a giant
119
00:07:35,100 –> 00:07:38,700
We have La me in second Samuel.
21 verse 19.
120
00:07:38,700 –> 00:07:41,300
We find out his name in The
Parallel account and First
121
00:07:41,300 –> 00:07:45,500
Chronicles 20, but he’s slain by
L Hainan Elena.
122
00:07:45,500 –> 00:07:48,900
We recognize from two chapters
later, was one of David’s own
123
00:07:48,900 –> 00:07:53,500
Mighty Men.
S, same of 23 and verse 24 and
124
00:07:53,500 –> 00:07:57,700
then we finally conclude second
Sima 21 with the last giant, the
125
00:07:57,700 –> 00:08:03,700
unnamed twenty four digit,
Giant, It says, there was a gain
126
00:08:03,700 –> 00:08:06,200
in verse 19 to battle and God
with the Philistines well
127
00:08:06,200 –> 00:08:10,400
Hainan, the son of Gera origam
at the Bethlehem, B, slew, the
128
00:08:10,400 –> 00:08:12,800
brother of Goliath, the gittite
the staff, whose spear was like
129
00:08:12,800 –> 00:08:15,800
a Weaver’s beam and another
battle in gath, where a man of
130
00:08:15,800 –> 00:08:19,200
great stature that had on every
hand, six fingers on an every
131
00:08:19,200 –> 00:08:21,000
foot.
Six toes, Four and Twenty in
132
00:08:21,000 –> 00:08:23,900
number.
She also was born to the ref, a
133
00:08:23,900 –> 00:08:27,400
him and when he defied Israel,
Jonathan the son of shimmy of
134
00:08:27,400 –> 00:08:32,900
the brother of David slew him.
These four were born to the I am
135
00:08:32,900 –> 00:08:36,000
in gath and fell by the hand of
David and by the hand of his
136
00:08:36,000 –> 00:08:38,799
servants.
So in the end, we see a
137
00:08:38,808 –> 00:08:42,799
beautiful preview of Who David
had been to his people.
138
00:08:45,800 –> 00:08:48,900
He had influence on all those
around him to fight the Giants.
139
00:08:49,100 –> 00:08:51,600
His personal guards, fought the
Giants.
140
00:08:52,200 –> 00:08:54,700
Those who worked in his
government fought the Giants,
141
00:08:54,900 –> 00:08:57,900
his mighty men, not only in
Valor but also in faith fought
142
00:08:57,900 –> 00:09:01,800
the Giants and even his own
family learned.
143
00:09:01,800 –> 00:09:05,400
How to fight the Giants.
But it says in verse 22 and they
144
00:09:05,400 –> 00:09:09,300
fell by the hand of David and by
the hand of his servants, David
145
00:09:09,300 –> 00:09:10,700
didn’t do any fighting in this
chapter.
146
00:09:11,600 –> 00:09:13,800
He didn’t conquer any the Giants
in this chapter?
147
00:09:15,400 –> 00:09:18,500
Not directly anyway, but his
influence.
148
00:09:19,800 –> 00:09:23,800
In fighting giants was
Monumental in the nation at this
149
00:09:23,800 –> 00:09:28,200
time.
And this brothers and sisters is
150
00:09:28,200 –> 00:09:32,000
one of the reasons why we fight.
It’s not just for ourselves, but
151
00:09:32,000 –> 00:09:34,700
for the health of our families
and for the health of our
152
00:09:34,700 –> 00:09:40,700
Ecclesia, because the Ecclesia
in the wilderness claimed Have
153
00:09:40,700 –> 00:09:42,300
an interest in this kind of
thing.
154
00:09:42,600 –> 00:09:45,600
We read many times throughout
this week, Numbers, Chapter 14
155
00:09:45,800 –> 00:09:47,600
verse 3.
It says and wherefore hath.
156
00:09:47,600 –> 00:09:52,600
Yahweh brought us into this land
to Fall by the sword that our
157
00:09:52,600 –> 00:09:57,600
wives and our children should be
a prey, the people knew the
158
00:09:57,600 –> 00:10:00,100
beside the people time and time
again, would claim that their
159
00:10:00,100 –> 00:10:03,300
intentions were of course, on
the children.
160
00:10:04,800 –> 00:10:08,300
Now God saw through this, in
fact, it was God’s incredible
161
00:10:08,300 –> 00:10:12,200
love for the children.
That’s paired them from the same
162
00:10:12,200 –> 00:10:14,400
fate as their parents.
While the parents died off in
163
00:10:14,400 –> 00:10:17,400
the wilderness due to their
unbelief, God brought the Next
164
00:10:17,400 –> 00:10:20,400
Generation into those children.
He brought them into the
165
00:10:20,400 –> 00:10:24,400
promised land he cared for and
nurtured them like a loving
166
00:10:24,400 –> 00:10:28,400
father.
And it’s this theme of training.
167
00:10:28,500 –> 00:10:31,800
These Yuk’s this next Generation
to fight Giants that were to
168
00:10:31,800 –> 00:10:35,200
look at today.
Many times in the book of
169
00:10:35,200 –> 00:10:37,500
Deuteronomy and Joshua and in
numbers.
170
00:10:37,500 –> 00:10:40,900
Do we see the steam?
Deuteronomy one.
171
00:10:40,900 –> 00:10:44,000
Surely there shall not one of
these men of this evil
172
00:10:44,000 –> 00:10:45,400
generation.
See that good Land?
173
00:10:45,400 –> 00:10:46,900
Save Caleb, the son of
jephunneh.
174
00:10:46,900 –> 00:10:49,000
He shall see it and to him will
I give the land that he hath
175
00:10:49,000 –> 00:10:51,700
trodden upon and to his
children.
176
00:10:53,000 –> 00:10:57,300
Deuteronomy chapter 2 until all
the generation of the men of War
177
00:10:57,300 –> 00:11:03,000
were wasted out from among the
host except dorami for says, all
178
00:11:03,000 –> 00:11:06,600
these statutes and laws in the
judgments, teach them to thy
179
00:11:06,600 –> 00:11:12,900
sons and thy Sons Sons Further
on verse 10 that they may teach
180
00:11:12,900 –> 00:11:16,100
their children.
And so all of these principles,
181
00:11:16,100 –> 00:11:18,700
all these lessons is we’re going
to see clearly through the
182
00:11:18,700 –> 00:11:21,700
lesson today we’re meant to be
passed on.
183
00:11:23,000 –> 00:11:25,800
And so, while yesterday we
finished fighting the Giants
184
00:11:26,300 –> 00:11:30,400
today, will focus more on.
How do we pass on these traits
185
00:11:30,900 –> 00:11:35,400
to not only our children?
but our nephews in our nieces,
186
00:11:35,600 –> 00:11:38,900
our Sunday school, our students,
whatever it is whatever
187
00:11:38,900 –> 00:11:43,500
interaction we have The younger
generation looks up to the older
188
00:11:43,500 –> 00:11:46,600
generation and this is how it
has always worked and how it
189
00:11:46,600 –> 00:11:50,100
always will work.
So today brothers and sisters,
190
00:11:50,100 –> 00:11:51,800
young people, we will teach our
children.
191
00:11:53,000 –> 00:11:58,100
How God will defeat Giants?
But first, I would like to do a
192
00:11:58,108 –> 00:12:02,200
quick review of Caleb because
Caleb is where we’ll start off
193
00:12:02,200 –> 00:12:05,400
with our lesson on spreading
this trait.
194
00:12:07,000 –> 00:12:10,500
Caleb was a gentile who
understood the glory of the
195
00:12:10,500 –> 00:12:14,200
promises so much that he could
actually recall every detail of
196
00:12:14,200 –> 00:12:20,000
his own inclusion into them.
Is our inclusion in the promises
197
00:12:20,000 –> 00:12:22,400
of Galatians, 3.
What moment of what motivates us
198
00:12:23,000 –> 00:12:25,100
or do?
Maybe we take them for granted?
199
00:12:25,200 –> 00:12:27,600
He’s there was one man who stood
up over the rest of the spies.
200
00:12:28,600 –> 00:12:30,000
He knew Victory could be
achieved.
201
00:12:30,000 –> 00:12:31,800
Think about the ratio there for
a second.
202
00:12:34,500 –> 00:12:39,900
Twelve individuals to knew they
could took a take on Giants.
203
00:12:40,900 –> 00:12:47,100
The majority were seen as sane,
relatable leaders 10 of them.
204
00:12:49,400 –> 00:12:52,900
Well Will Survive?
We follow the 10, so brothers
205
00:12:52,900 –> 00:12:54,500
and sisters.
We spoke on this briefly
206
00:12:54,500 –> 00:12:58,600
yesterday but we always seem to
compare ourselves to the heroes
207
00:12:58,700 –> 00:13:01,900
of scripture.
Where the David’s not the
208
00:13:01,900 –> 00:13:07,200
Saul’s, where the Peter’s, not
the giudices, where the Joseph’s
209
00:13:07,300 –> 00:13:11,600
not the Rubens.
How often can we actually see
210
00:13:11,600 –> 00:13:15,000
ourselves in the shoes of those
who were too fearful to fearful?
211
00:13:16,500 –> 00:13:19,400
Too lazy.
Too rebellious.
212
00:13:21,500 –> 00:13:26,000
You see, we could be really,
really good at seeing other
213
00:13:26,000 –> 00:13:31,100
people.
As those kinds, we can see our
214
00:13:31,100 –> 00:13:34,500
brothers and sisters as solves
giudices.
215
00:13:34,800 –> 00:13:38,000
Rubens, is that our giant or the
sisters?
216
00:13:38,000 –> 00:13:41,300
Maybe that’s one of our Giants.
You see, if I passed out a
217
00:13:41,308 –> 00:13:44,900
second flyer, quick guide, I
said, I want you to fill this
218
00:13:44,900 –> 00:13:50,700
out. as if you’re filling out
brother Carl’s Giant It would
219
00:13:50,700 –> 00:13:54,100
take us 45 seconds to fill it
out.
220
00:13:56,000 –> 00:13:57,900
I know Brother Carlos giant
better than he does.
221
00:13:58,800 –> 00:14:00,900
I am really glad he’s here.
Listening this week.
222
00:14:03,100 –> 00:14:07,600
Imagine if I was as good at
focusing on my own giant as I
223
00:14:07,608 –> 00:14:12,200
was as focusing on yours.
That’s not Caleb.
224
00:14:13,000 –> 00:14:17,000
He understood his place.
Number two, Caleb expected.
225
00:14:17,000 –> 00:14:18,900
And he understood that a fight
was necessary.
226
00:14:19,700 –> 00:14:21,100
He knew there was going to be a
fight.
227
00:14:21,300 –> 00:14:27,500
He was 85 years old.
But he was antsy to fight them.
228
00:14:28,600 –> 00:14:32,300
He seems to beg Joshua to let
him fight the Giants.
229
00:14:32,500 –> 00:14:34,800
All for the sake of his
inheritance.
230
00:14:36,700 –> 00:14:39,400
Number three.
He knew he would never be done.
231
00:14:40,900 –> 00:14:44,900
He expected, and he prepared for
the hardship ahead of him.
232
00:14:45,000 –> 00:14:49,100
He was 85 years old and he was
still fighting giants yesterday.
233
00:14:49,100 –> 00:14:51,500
We looked at how a teen fought
Giants.
234
00:14:52,800 –> 00:14:57,300
It’s an ongoing lifelong battle.
It’s a never-ending job.
235
00:14:58,600 –> 00:15:01,100
The goal is to just fight
different ones.
236
00:15:02,100 –> 00:15:04,900
To beat one and to move on to
the next beat one.
237
00:15:04,900 –> 00:15:09,000
Move on to the next.
Some of the teens and some of
238
00:15:09,008 –> 00:15:11,000
the adults have asked a great
question.
239
00:15:12,300 –> 00:15:14,000
What if I just can’t seem to
beat one?
240
00:15:14,600 –> 00:15:18,600
What if it seems like I’m
fighting one for 45 years?
241
00:15:20,600 –> 00:15:24,000
It’s not a bad thing as long as
you’re fighting.
242
00:15:25,500 –> 00:15:28,400
We may be stuck fighting the
same giant from our young days.
243
00:15:29,500 –> 00:15:32,300
Maybe it involves, maybe it
morphs, maybe it’s identical.
244
00:15:33,200 –> 00:15:37,800
It’s when you give up the
battle, that it gets bad.
245
00:15:39,600 –> 00:15:41,500
Caleb new.
He just need to keep on fighting
246
00:15:42,500 –> 00:15:44,400
Caleb, deflected all the
strength to God.
247
00:15:44,400 –> 00:15:47,800
He never once mentioned his own
ability or his own might.
248
00:15:48,200 –> 00:15:51,900
If Jason goes into the battle,
thinking Jason will be at the
249
00:15:51,900 –> 00:15:54,300
Giants.
Jason is toast.
250
00:15:56,100 –> 00:15:57,500
We have to look at this quality
of Caleb.
251
00:15:57,500 –> 00:16:02,300
Honestly, I think he knew that
the fight did belong to Yahweh
252
00:16:03,000 –> 00:16:06,900
and number five.
He made a request knowing full
253
00:16:06,900 –> 00:16:11,100
well he was going to receive it.
It was a promise by that man of
254
00:16:11,100 –> 00:16:14,700
Yahweh, Moses.
You know what the Giants were,
255
00:16:14,800 –> 00:16:16,700
and you knew what he had to do
to fight them.
256
00:16:18,200 –> 00:16:20,900
You see it was faith.
That drove Caleb.
257
00:16:22,000 –> 00:16:26,100
To action faith and Caleb’s
example created works.
258
00:16:27,200 –> 00:16:29,900
He was motivated by a pure and
concentrated faith and he was
259
00:16:29,900 –> 00:16:33,100
moved by these to act.
It wasn’t a hopeful sitting in
260
00:16:33,100 –> 00:16:35,100
his tent.
Hoping that the Giants would
261
00:16:35,100 –> 00:16:38,600
miraculously explode he was
thinking.
262
00:16:40,400 –> 00:16:44,800
I have enough faith and God will
help me beat them, but I have to
263
00:16:44,800 –> 00:16:47,900
go do the work.
And so with this example of
264
00:16:47,900 –> 00:16:52,300
Caleb, and these five
attributes, we see that he was a
265
00:16:52,300 –> 00:16:57,700
fascinating example.
But he also understood the
266
00:16:57,700 –> 00:17:01,300
importance of teaching this to
his family.
267
00:17:02,000 –> 00:17:06,099
It says the numbers 14 verse 24,
but my servant Kayla because he
268
00:17:06,099 –> 00:17:08,200
had another spirit with him and
have followed me.
269
00:17:08,200 –> 00:17:10,700
Fully him, will I bring into the
land whereon to.
270
00:17:10,700 –> 00:17:14,300
He went the promise could have
stopped there but scriptures
271
00:17:14,300 –> 00:17:18,700
goes on and says, and his seed
shall possess it, same message
272
00:17:18,700 –> 00:17:22,200
in Deuteronomy and to his
children.
273
00:17:23,000 –> 00:17:26,300
Because he had wholly, followed
the Lord, same message in
274
00:17:26,300 –> 00:17:30,800
Joshua.
And light children’s forever
275
00:17:30,900 –> 00:17:33,500
because thou Hast wholly,
followed the Lord, my God.
276
00:17:33,700 –> 00:17:38,300
So, the message about Caleb is
the inheritance belongs to him
277
00:17:39,100 –> 00:17:43,900
and his family.
So, when Kayla fought the
278
00:17:43,900 –> 00:17:46,300
Giants, he did.
So knowing it is going to pass
279
00:17:46,300 –> 00:17:50,300
on this experience, this
inheritance to his children.
280
00:17:51,900 –> 00:17:56,200
And oh boy, did it work turns me
to Joshua chapter 15?
281
00:17:57,900 –> 00:18:01,200
Joshua 15.
Caleb has just conquered Hebron.
282
00:18:01,400 –> 00:18:03,900
Finally.
The land.
283
00:18:03,900 –> 00:18:08,700
He spied 45 years earlier is now
liberated from the Giants which
284
00:18:08,700 –> 00:18:12,400
have been occupying his mind
ever since it’s done.
285
00:18:12,800 –> 00:18:18,800
And he turns to the next city,
Joshua 15 verse 15 and he went
286
00:18:18,800 –> 00:18:22,700
up then sitting habitants of
deburr and the name of D before
287
00:18:22,700 –> 00:18:28,000
was here Jeff pfeffer.
And so he goes to the next city
288
00:18:28,600 –> 00:18:30,600
here.
Jeff, except for verse 15, 16.
289
00:18:31,300 –> 00:18:34,400
And Caleb said he that’s might
have here just suffer and taketh
290
00:18:34,400 –> 00:18:36,500
it to him.
Will I give acts on my daughter
291
00:18:36,500 –> 00:18:39,600
to wife?
So, Caleb having this Cochran
292
00:18:39,600 –> 00:18:42,000
Hebron.
He decides, he’s going to turn
293
00:18:42,000 –> 00:18:45,100
his attention to the next city.
A city called cure death, sefar
294
00:18:45,200 –> 00:18:47,900
12 miles to the south of his new
city of Hebron.
295
00:18:48,100 –> 00:18:53,200
It means City of Books.
The City of Books because more
296
00:18:53,200 –> 00:18:55,200
than likely it was filled with
this wicked.
297
00:18:55,200 –> 00:19:00,600
Curriculum of all the nations,
the written works of idolatry
298
00:19:00,600 –> 00:19:05,000
immorality, witchcraft a library
City full of these things and
299
00:19:05,000 –> 00:19:08,300
Caleb can’t live with this.
He’s not content having these
300
00:19:08,300 –> 00:19:12,400
ideas oozing out that close to
his city of Hebron.
301
00:19:13,500 –> 00:19:16,800
Because as we just looked at for
Caleb, the work was never
302
00:19:16,800 –> 00:19:19,400
actually done.
So what he does is he sits
303
00:19:19,400 –> 00:19:22,300
around and he thinks to himself,
I know that God can give me the
304
00:19:22,300 –> 00:19:25,400
city if I wanted it.
He knew the principles of
305
00:19:25,400 –> 00:19:29,600
Deuteronomy.
But I’m interested in a contest.
306
00:19:29,600 –> 00:19:32,800
He says, and Kayla puts a
challenge out there, doesn’t he
307
00:19:32,808 –> 00:19:36,600
says that whoever defeats the
city and the Giants of kids at
308
00:19:36,600 –> 00:19:40,600
supper, will be given my
daughter EXA in marriage now,
309
00:19:40,600 –> 00:19:43,000
think about this deal, because
it’s not exactly what it appears
310
00:19:43,200 –> 00:19:47,500
on first glance.
He’s not offering his daughter
311
00:19:48,000 –> 00:19:53,900
so much as a reward.
In as much as the man will be a
312
00:19:53,900 –> 00:19:57,800
reward for his daughter.
You see the difference?
313
00:20:00,100 –> 00:20:03,100
This wasn’t like the promise of
song with another giant stood in
314
00:20:03,100 –> 00:20:06,200
the way of Israel’s Victory,
Saul offered his daughter as a
315
00:20:06,208 –> 00:20:09,300
reward for doing something.
He did not want to do.
316
00:20:10,300 –> 00:20:13,800
Caleb offers his daughter to
duplicate something.
317
00:20:13,800 –> 00:20:18,500
He had just done.
It wasn’t just anyone who can go
318
00:20:18,500 –> 00:20:20,000
into a city and conquered from
Giants.
319
00:20:20,000 –> 00:20:24,300
It took men of a different
Spirit men, like Caleb.
320
00:20:24,400 –> 00:20:28,100
So, Caleb and complete interest
of preserving his seed of giants
321
00:20:28,100 –> 00:20:30,200
layers.
He creates this sort of Faith
322
00:20:30,200 –> 00:20:33,800
contest, doesn’t he?
For the husband of his daughter?
323
00:20:34,000 –> 00:20:37,200
The man who shows the faith,
great enough to slay, Giants,
324
00:20:37,200 –> 00:20:41,600
and this city will become part
of my family and inherit part of
325
00:20:41,600 –> 00:20:46,900
my land.
So before long verse 17 and off
326
00:20:46,900 –> 00:20:50,000
Neil, the son of keen as the
brother of Caleb took it and he
327
00:20:50,000 –> 00:20:53,200
gave him actually his daughter
to wife and Incredibly faithful,
328
00:20:53,200 –> 00:20:58,800
individual arises Caleb.
His nephew othniel takes the
329
00:20:58,800 –> 00:21:01,300
city and Caleb gives away his
daughter to him.
330
00:21:02,300 –> 00:21:06,600
Caleb was searching for a man
who put in the effort to beat
331
00:21:06,600 –> 00:21:09,300
Giants.
For his wife for his daughter.
332
00:21:10,300 –> 00:21:14,000
Nothing left, less would be
acceptable and so often you’ll
333
00:21:14,000 –> 00:21:19,100
steps up to the plate.
But then we see.
334
00:21:20,700 –> 00:21:25,700
The beautiful qualities.
Of accept.
335
00:21:27,400 –> 00:21:29,700
This is where the story really
starts to get interesting.
336
00:21:29,800 –> 00:21:33,600
There was something about this
line of Caleb, that was purely
337
00:21:33,600 –> 00:21:35,500
motivated to follow God’s
commands.
338
00:21:35,500 –> 00:21:37,600
No matter what kind of effort,
no matter what kind of work it
339
00:21:37,608 –> 00:21:40,200
took.
So Caleb gives away his daughter
340
00:21:40,200 –> 00:21:43,000
to a man named othniel.
Now, off yield the name,
341
00:21:43,000 –> 00:21:46,900
Probably sounds familiar was the
first judge of the nation of
342
00:21:46,900 –> 00:21:49,100
Israel.
You see, Israel went into the
343
00:21:49,100 –> 00:21:52,100
land, they conquered all this
territory from other people.
344
00:21:52,500 –> 00:21:54,900
Now, over the course of the
time, the judge of the judges.
345
00:21:55,000 –> 00:21:57,100
These nations would say you took
our land.
346
00:21:57,600 –> 00:21:59,600
And they would send in small
battles.
347
00:21:59,800 –> 00:22:02,900
Small armies and kind of catch
the land back.
348
00:22:03,900 –> 00:22:06,200
And God would use these
opportunities to teach his
349
00:22:06,200 –> 00:22:08,800
people a lesson and they would
repent and God would send in a
350
00:22:08,800 –> 00:22:11,600
judge, the first of which was
off Neil.
351
00:22:12,900 –> 00:22:16,400
As the first judge he was filled
with the spirit of God were told
352
00:22:16,800 –> 00:22:19,400
as a warrior.
He led his people effectively
353
00:22:19,400 –> 00:22:24,300
and in total faith in God and as
an administrator he actually
354
00:22:24,300 –> 00:22:26,700
brought peace upon the land for
40 years.
355
00:22:27,200 –> 00:22:33,700
What a fantastic find for AXA.
What a fantastic find for Caleb.
356
00:22:34,600 –> 00:22:37,500
If you want to raise a Godly
seed by the sisters, if you want
357
00:22:37,500 –> 00:22:41,000
your children to learn how to
slay, Giants surround your
358
00:22:41,000 –> 00:22:43,300
family with people who slay
Giants.
359
00:22:44,800 –> 00:22:48,300
If you want your family to live,
alongside them to ignore them,
360
00:22:48,500 –> 00:22:50,800
surround yourself with people
who live with them as well.
361
00:22:51,800 –> 00:22:56,700
So ax, a newly, married chosen
type exactly how the bride of
362
00:22:56,700 –> 00:23:01,100
Christ should act in their life.
You see God gave a challenge to
363
00:23:01,100 –> 00:23:05,000
his son.
Slade Giants in your life
364
00:23:05,000 –> 00:23:09,800
perfectly.
No murmur but act in faith,
365
00:23:10,200 –> 00:23:16,400
don’t tempt, Yahweh, but be
active in spirit and our Lord,
366
00:23:16,400 –> 00:23:19,100
Jesus Christ, succeeded in this
challenge.
367
00:23:19,200 –> 00:23:25,400
Flawlessly, it wasn’t a single
giant that he left alive. so,
368
00:23:25,400 –> 00:23:29,100
God will bring the bride, which
he has been raising his sons,
369
00:23:29,100 –> 00:23:34,500
and daughters to him, who
overcame But acts of Acts
370
00:23:34,500 –> 00:23:40,500
exactly like her father, Caleb,
she approaches him Verse 18.
371
00:23:40,500 –> 00:23:44,100
And it came to pass as she came
unto him that she moved him to
372
00:23:44,100 –> 00:23:47,100
ask of her father a field, and
she lied it off her ass.
373
00:23:47,100 –> 00:23:50,500
And Caleb said unto her, what
wouldest thou, first 19 who
374
00:23:50,500 –> 00:23:53,600
answered, give me a blessing for
that was giving me a south wind.
375
00:23:53,800 –> 00:23:57,100
Give me also Springs of water.
And he gave her the upper
376
00:23:57,100 –> 00:24:00,200
Springs and the nether Springs.
We read this and we say what a
377
00:24:00,200 –> 00:24:04,200
greedy little daughter, You just
got the Southland and now you’re
378
00:24:04,200 –> 00:24:09,800
already asking me for more.
Is that the attitude of Aksum?
379
00:24:10,800 –> 00:24:13,100
Well, of course not she is
acting.
380
00:24:13,100 –> 00:24:17,200
Exactly.
Like Caleb actin didn’t Caleb.
381
00:24:17,200 –> 00:24:20,800
Go to Joshua and say, can I have
that land?
382
00:24:20,800 –> 00:24:26,800
Can I just go get it now?
And AXA takes advantage of the
383
00:24:26,800 –> 00:24:30,800
situation and in her total Zeal
she says give me a blessing for
384
00:24:30,800 –> 00:24:32,100
you.
Give me the Southland.
385
00:24:32,300 –> 00:24:37,000
Give me also Springs of water.
She said it’s so AXA the bride
386
00:24:37,000 –> 00:24:40,500
acknowledges that she had been
given the Southland, but she
387
00:24:40,500 –> 00:24:42,900
asks for more the Springs of
water.
388
00:24:43,100 –> 00:24:46,600
Now, this Southland is the word
-, and it means to be dry or
389
00:24:46,600 –> 00:24:50,900
parched.
So she asks from her father,
390
00:24:50,900 –> 00:24:53,900
something that would have been
very hard to deny your daughter.
391
00:24:54,200 –> 00:24:57,800
Let alone as a wedding gift.
She says, the land you’ve given
392
00:24:57,800 –> 00:25:02,200
me while I absolutely appreciate
it.
393
00:25:02,900 –> 00:25:06,000
It’s dry, and it’s parched, it’s
Negev.
394
00:25:07,200 –> 00:25:08,800
You also give me the pools of
water.
395
00:25:10,100 –> 00:25:12,900
Do you see how much she’s just
like her dad?
396
00:25:14,200 –> 00:25:18,100
She’s filled with integrity and
a faithful Spirit, but she was
397
00:25:18,100 –> 00:25:23,300
extremely zealous and she was
quick to seize any opportunity
398
00:25:23,300 –> 00:25:26,700
that would present itself.
She asks from her father, the
399
00:25:26,700 –> 00:25:29,900
same thing we ask from our
father, something we simply
400
00:25:29,900 –> 00:25:33,100
can’t achieve on our own
something.
401
00:25:33,100 –> 00:25:38,600
She didn’t deserve.
But something he was happy to
402
00:25:38,600 –> 00:25:41,900
give.
She asking for the land of
403
00:25:41,900 –> 00:25:45,300
Springs and pools so that she
may water the dry and parched
404
00:25:45,300 –> 00:25:47,900
land.
Caleb of course is a type of the
405
00:25:47,900 –> 00:25:51,900
heavenly father himself rewards,
her faith and her Zeal as he
406
00:25:51,908 –> 00:25:55,200
most always does.
And he acts and Grayson presents
407
00:25:55,200 –> 00:25:58,000
his daughter with her very own
inheritance in the land.
408
00:25:59,400 –> 00:26:02,800
And she being much, like those
Daughters of xalapa, had craved
409
00:26:02,800 –> 00:26:07,000
a place in the promised land,
but she understood that the only
410
00:26:07,200 –> 00:26:11,300
way to get there.
Was through her father.
411
00:26:12,800 –> 00:26:14,600
And now, she along with her new
husband.
412
00:26:14,600 –> 00:26:18,200
Enjoy the land, not by their own
merits, but the sisters, but as
413
00:26:18,200 –> 00:26:22,200
adopted children into that
household of Abraham, and the
414
00:26:22,200 –> 00:26:27,700
promises, Will skim through
this, but we see from these
415
00:26:27,700 –> 00:26:31,800
verses how Caleb was such a
tremendous example to his
416
00:26:31,800 –> 00:26:36,300
family.
And then we come to the main
417
00:26:36,300 –> 00:26:39,200
point in the main principle of
today’s session.
418
00:26:40,300 –> 00:26:44,000
We have seen, how David was a
great influence on, all those
419
00:26:44,300 –> 00:26:47,400
who he came into contact with
in, literally slaying Giants.
420
00:26:48,500 –> 00:26:52,800
We see how Caleb was interested
in preserving this giant slang
421
00:26:52,800 –> 00:26:56,100
trait of his family.
But then we come to Joshua
422
00:26:56,100 –> 00:27:01,400
chapter 4 and we find out that
they were just following a very
423
00:27:01,500 –> 00:27:05,600
simple rule that God built into
everyday, life of the children
424
00:27:05,600 –> 00:27:08,700
of Israel.
It says in Joshua chapter 4,
425
00:27:08,700 –> 00:27:11,800
verses 6 and 7 we have just
crossed the Red Sea.
426
00:27:12,300 –> 00:27:14,900
We have entered for the first
time in our foot step foot in
427
00:27:14,900 –> 00:27:19,000
the promised land.
And it says, Verse 5 and Joshua
428
00:27:19,000 –> 00:27:22,400
said unto them Passover, before
the Ark of Yahweh, Our God into
429
00:27:22,400 –> 00:27:25,400
the midst of Jordan and take you
up every man of you, a stone
430
00:27:25,400 –> 00:27:27,400
upon his shoulder.
According to the number of the
431
00:27:27,408 –> 00:27:30,900
tribes of the children of Israel
that this may be a sign among
432
00:27:30,900 –> 00:27:33,500
you that when your children ask
their fathers and time to come
433
00:27:33,500 –> 00:27:36,900
saying what’s meanie by these
Stones, then you shall answer
434
00:27:36,900 –> 00:27:38,600
them.
That the Waters of Jordan were
435
00:27:38,600 –> 00:27:40,900
cut off before the Ark of the
Covenant of Yahweh.
436
00:27:40,900 –> 00:27:45,000
When it passed over Jordan, the
Waters of Jordan were cut off
437
00:27:45,000 –> 00:27:47,500
and the stone shall be a
memorial unto the children of
438
00:27:47,600 –> 00:27:50,200
Fail forever.
So what happens is as the
439
00:27:50,200 –> 00:27:52,700
children of Israel cross over
the Jordan and they enter into
440
00:27:52,700 –> 00:27:56,300
the promised land, they were
commanded to take 12 men each a
441
00:27:56,300 –> 00:28:00,200
stone on his shoulder and they
would carry the stone out of the
442
00:28:00,200 –> 00:28:03,600
Jordan River and they would set
it up in a pile and they would
443
00:28:03,600 –> 00:28:06,600
set it up in gilgal and they
were to take stones from outside
444
00:28:06,600 –> 00:28:09,000
the river.
Bring them back in and put them
445
00:28:09,000 –> 00:28:12,500
in the river.
And you think to yourself what?
446
00:28:12,500 –> 00:28:16,300
A weird command?
Why?
447
00:28:19,100 –> 00:28:23,700
You will find one reason why God
says to do this very odd
448
00:28:23,700 –> 00:28:29,800
command. when your children ask
their fathers in time to come
449
00:28:29,800 –> 00:28:35,400
saying, what mean, ye by these
stones, You’ll have an answer.
450
00:28:38,700 –> 00:28:44,300
This was the reason.
So they would have an answer.
451
00:28:44,800 –> 00:28:50,100
It was a built-in Memorial.
What would happen is the
452
00:28:50,100 –> 00:28:52,700
children would come by those 12
Stones and say Dad.
453
00:28:54,500 –> 00:28:56,700
Why are the 12 Rock sitting
here?
454
00:28:58,300 –> 00:29:03,400
And it doesn’t say so that your
father’s in time to come saying,
455
00:29:03,600 –> 00:29:07,500
what mean, ye by these stones
that you shall that, you can
456
00:29:07,700 –> 00:29:12,000
answer them that if you feel
like it you can answer them.
457
00:29:13,900 –> 00:29:19,200
It was so you will answer them.
The point was not just at kids
458
00:29:19,400 –> 00:29:24,300
pestering, their parents for
answers, but for parents to
459
00:29:24,300 –> 00:29:28,400
answer them My brothers and
sisters in order for this to
460
00:29:28,400 –> 00:29:33,700
happen.
Parents needed to have answers.
461
00:29:36,100 –> 00:29:42,300
An issue in our evolving
Community is, sometimes we, as
462
00:29:42,300 –> 00:29:46,800
parents just don’t have the
answers, we should, hey Mom.
463
00:29:48,000 –> 00:29:49,600
Why do you wear a hat during
meeting?
464
00:29:51,800 –> 00:29:55,500
I don’t know because the Bible
says so, That’s not a good
465
00:29:55,500 –> 00:29:58,300
answer.
Hey Dad, why does baptism
466
00:29:58,300 –> 00:29:59,900
matter?
Why do we go all the way under
467
00:29:59,900 –> 00:30:02,400
water?
Do you have an answer by the
468
00:30:02,400 –> 00:30:04,500
scissors?
Do we know what God’s principle
469
00:30:04,500 –> 00:30:08,300
that he’s getting at?
Is can we share it?
470
00:30:10,700 –> 00:30:13,100
Parents need to know how to
fight Giants because they need
471
00:30:13,100 –> 00:30:16,800
to know how to teach it.
To their children, to their
472
00:30:16,800 –> 00:30:18,200
Sunday school and to their
students.
473
00:30:18,900 –> 00:30:22,500
In Israel, you had an entire
generation that couldn’t fight
474
00:30:22,500 –> 00:30:25,800
Giants.
A generation raised in Egypt.
475
00:30:27,500 –> 00:30:32,400
and so from day one, God
instituted a Passover.
476
00:30:33,600 –> 00:30:36,700
He says, so your children shall
ask.
477
00:30:36,700 –> 00:30:38,500
Why are we doing all these
things?
478
00:30:38,700 –> 00:30:43,400
You can tell them an answer.
You will tell them why we do
479
00:30:43,400 –> 00:30:46,400
these things.
God is very interested.
480
00:30:47,500 –> 00:30:51,200
He says in Malachi to, in verse
15, in the RSV, has not the one
481
00:30:51,200 –> 00:30:54,700
God made in sustained for us,
the spirit of life and what does
482
00:30:54,700 –> 00:30:58,100
he desire?
Godly offspring.
483
00:31:01,700 –> 00:31:05,400
The answer was very important,
they needed to have an answer.
484
00:31:06,400 –> 00:31:10,600
It’s vital as parents that we
lead our children to ask
485
00:31:10,600 –> 00:31:14,700
questions and always have the
answers and it’s very sad when
486
00:31:14,700 –> 00:31:18,900
we see parents nowadays.
Taking childlike approach to
487
00:31:18,900 –> 00:31:24,400
matters in the Ecclesia.
I grew up in a household, where
488
00:31:24,400 –> 00:31:27,400
around the dinner, table on the
way home from meeting.
489
00:31:28,000 –> 00:31:30,400
We would never ever speak
negatively about her brothers
490
00:31:30,400 –> 00:31:36,600
and sisters.
When we got home from eating, it
491
00:31:36,600 –> 00:31:41,300
was never flip on the TV.
We can’t live a life of double
492
00:31:41,300 –> 00:31:43,800
standards, especially in front
of our children.
493
00:31:44,400 –> 00:31:47,200
Build these learning
opportunities in everything that
494
00:31:47,200 –> 00:31:49,900
we can.
It is a command from God.
495
00:31:51,200 –> 00:31:54,100
That’s what God did.
And as we saw in the readings,
496
00:31:54,100 –> 00:31:58,300
yesterday, we have to be an
example, in two things, word and
497
00:31:58,300 –> 00:32:02,000
deed, we can’t just say that we
need to do these things and not
498
00:32:02,000 –> 00:32:06,000
act as parents and not do them.
Do we want our children in
499
00:32:06,000 –> 00:32:09,900
Sunday school to have a spirit
of zeal and dedication?
500
00:32:10,900 –> 00:32:14,600
They can’t get it from me.
If I don’t have that.
501
00:32:16,600 –> 00:32:18,800
So how do we get the spirit of
zeal and dedication?
502
00:32:21,500 –> 00:32:25,100
Fortunately it’s not rocket
science, read the word, listen,
503
00:32:25,100 –> 00:32:27,500
to classes preach, Listen to
Good.
504
00:32:27,500 –> 00:32:31,300
Music, read books, drown
yourself in giant defeating
505
00:32:31,300 –> 00:32:34,600
instructions.
One of the best things to do is
506
00:32:34,600 –> 00:32:38,400
just make the truth of priority.
Always nothing can come before
507
00:32:38,400 –> 00:32:41,700
your life in the truth.
Then there’s a good chance that
508
00:32:41,700 –> 00:32:46,100
your kids may feel the same.
because you see this was built
509
00:32:46,100 –> 00:32:50,900
into everything the Passover
when your children shall say
510
00:32:50,900 –> 00:32:58,200
unto you, what mean, ye by this
service, ye will say God, built
511
00:32:58,200 –> 00:33:01,800
opportunities to train the
children in Every Day, Life,
512
00:33:01,800 –> 00:33:09,000
starting the very first day at
the Passover, He says, it’s
513
00:33:09,000 –> 00:33:12,400
important that we keep these
beliefs alive.
514
00:33:13,400 –> 00:33:16,200
And he purposely built a reason
to remember him into everyday,
515
00:33:16,200 –> 00:33:18,200
life.
Kids are many things but two
516
00:33:18,200 –> 00:33:22,400
things stand out, they are
curious and impressionable.
517
00:33:23,900 –> 00:33:26,700
You see he still does this as
any brothers and sisters.
518
00:33:28,300 –> 00:33:30,000
You see many Brethren here, can
probably relate to a little
519
00:33:30,000 –> 00:33:31,400
example that I’ll share with
you.
520
00:33:32,400 –> 00:33:35,000
Back home at our Ecclesia.
We like many occasions.
521
00:33:35,100 –> 00:33:39,000
We pass the emblems from row to
row as we work our way back.
522
00:33:40,100 –> 00:33:42,700
And as I’m sure many of you
brother have noticed the kids
523
00:33:42,700 –> 00:33:44,300
will just look at you in the
eyes.
524
00:33:45,600 –> 00:33:47,700
As you pass the bread to their
parents.
525
00:33:47,900 –> 00:33:52,400
And they’ll stare at you, And
they watch the bread as they dad
526
00:33:52,400 –> 00:33:55,500
eats it and they’ll watches pass
it to Mom and they’ll watch it.
527
00:33:55,500 –> 00:33:56,600
Go and they’ll go back to their
game.
528
00:33:57,400 –> 00:33:59,100
And then you bring the wine and
it’s the same thing.
529
00:33:59,300 –> 00:34:02,200
It’s the wine comes down past
the dead that drinks.
530
00:34:02,200 –> 00:34:07,800
It mom, drinks it, pass it back.
Books are closed because for a
531
00:34:07,808 –> 00:34:12,100
moment, their mind is just
focused on this really strange
532
00:34:12,100 –> 00:34:13,600
ritual, which we do every
Sunday.
533
00:34:15,400 –> 00:34:16,800
Do you have an answer for them
on the way home?
534
00:34:17,199 –> 00:34:19,900
Why you do those things?
Why is there too?
535
00:34:21,600 –> 00:34:26,800
But what a fantastic organic way
to explain our first principles
536
00:34:26,800 –> 00:34:30,300
to them.
God has built our children,
537
00:34:30,300 –> 00:34:34,000
curious and impressionable, and
he built these things so that
538
00:34:34,000 –> 00:34:38,100
the children would ask and the
parents would answer.
539
00:34:38,699 –> 00:34:41,100
It was away.
He organized his worship.
540
00:34:43,699 –> 00:34:47,300
Dad, why are those 12 Stones
there?
541
00:34:49,500 –> 00:34:54,000
Have a seat.
They stand for God, delivering
542
00:34:54,000 –> 00:34:56,900
us out of Egypt.
Our victories over the Giants
543
00:34:56,900 –> 00:34:59,600
and God’s mercy and bringing us
into this Promised Land.
544
00:35:00,600 –> 00:35:04,500
Let me tell you the story.
Well the next generation without
545
00:35:04,500 –> 00:35:07,500
proper education, sound
something like this Dad why are
546
00:35:07,500 –> 00:35:11,300
there 12 Stones?
Oh yeah, it’s 12 Stones their
547
00:35:11,300 –> 00:35:14,200
assignment.
God was with us which in the
548
00:35:14,200 –> 00:35:18,900
Next Generation turns to Dad why
are there’s 12 Stones you know
549
00:35:18,900 –> 00:35:21,100
Grandpa used to talk about those
stones.
550
00:35:21,500 –> 00:35:23,900
I think they had something to do
with us getting into this land
551
00:35:24,800 –> 00:35:28,200
which turns into dead.
What are those Twelve Stones?
552
00:35:30,000 –> 00:35:34,100
I thought I was 10.
Which turns into dead.
553
00:35:34,300 –> 00:35:37,500
What are the 12 Stones?
I think it’s a restaurant
554
00:35:37,500 –> 00:35:40,900
downtown.
And these memorials that God
555
00:35:40,900 –> 00:35:44,000
puts into place without
properly.
556
00:35:44,000 –> 00:35:48,900
Educating future Generations can
become diluted and eventually
557
00:35:48,900 –> 00:35:51,900
disappear, brothers and sisters.
Do we know why baptism is
558
00:35:51,900 –> 00:35:53,700
necessary?
Do we truly know?
559
00:35:54,300 –> 00:35:56,400
Do we know why?
We take a both the bread and the
560
00:35:56,400 –> 00:35:58,600
wine?
Do we know why we worship the
561
00:35:58,600 –> 00:36:03,800
way that we do?
The reason is God, built
562
00:36:03,800 –> 00:36:07,700
opportunities to train the Next
Generation in everyday.
563
00:36:07,700 –> 00:36:11,200
Life, it occurs many, many times
in scripture.
564
00:36:12,100 –> 00:36:16,800
The Passover entering into the
promised land and enjoying the
565
00:36:16,800 –> 00:36:23,100
fruits of the land.
We cannot ever ever, ever forget
566
00:36:24,400 –> 00:36:30,300
the examples that we have on
future Generations. because you
567
00:36:30,300 –> 00:36:37,700
see, There was a tribe.
Who grew to be larger than any
568
00:36:37,900 –> 00:36:41,000
tribe.
Geographically in the land.
569
00:36:42,800 –> 00:36:45,400
It was because of their success
in fighting giants in the people
570
00:36:45,400 –> 00:36:49,900
in the enemies of that land.
And is because they could train
571
00:36:49,900 –> 00:36:54,100
from one generation to the next.
Family of giant Fighters.
572
00:36:57,000 –> 00:36:59,800
And we read in Deuteronomy 4
verses 38 and 40.
573
00:37:01,300 –> 00:37:05,100
To drive out nations from before
the greater and mightier than
574
00:37:05,100 –> 00:37:11,600
thou art to bring the in to give
me their land for an inheritance
575
00:37:11,600 –> 00:37:15,100
as it is this day.
That shall keep there for his
576
00:37:15,100 –> 00:37:18,100
statutes and his Commandments
which I command thee this day.
577
00:37:20,400 –> 00:37:25,200
That it may go well with thee.
and with thy children, after
578
00:37:25,400 –> 00:37:29,400
thee, And at that Emmaus
prolonged, I days upon the Earth
579
00:37:29,400 –> 00:37:32,300
which the Lord thy God, giveth
thee forever.
580
00:37:34,100 –> 00:37:40,600
Sometimes brothers and sisters,
we can come to a tradition thing
581
00:37:40,600 –> 00:37:42,400
that we do in our Cleese our
lives.
582
00:37:42,400 –> 00:37:45,400
And we could say, no, I don’t
really get a lot out of this.
583
00:37:46,900 –> 00:37:52,000
This isn’t doing much for me.
Brothers and sisters often
584
00:37:52,000 –> 00:37:54,800
times.
It’s not always meant for just
585
00:37:54,800 –> 00:37:59,900
you.
It’s meant for others to ask
586
00:37:59,900 –> 00:38:03,000
why?
You just need to make sure that
587
00:38:03,000 –> 00:38:08,200
we have the answers.
And so, as we turn to our last
588
00:38:08,200 –> 00:38:13,000
page on our quick guide, it’s
sad to say it but we only have
589
00:38:13,000 –> 00:38:17,500
three questions left.
The first question says, what
590
00:38:17,500 –> 00:38:19,800
things is parents?
Grandparents uncles, aunts
591
00:38:19,800 –> 00:38:23,400
siblings, can you do to help the
Next Generation take down their
592
00:38:23,400 –> 00:38:24,900
Giants?
It can be anything.
593
00:38:28,100 –> 00:38:31,600
It can be anything.
To support my Sunday School.
594
00:38:32,800 –> 00:38:35,500
I’m going to have him over for a
big water fight in the backyard,
595
00:38:36,000 –> 00:38:40,000
whatever we can do to be
examples to just get ourselves
596
00:38:40,000 –> 00:38:44,100
around them and to be there to
give an answer when there’s a
597
00:38:44,107 –> 00:38:49,500
question.
Question number two, find one
598
00:38:49,500 –> 00:38:51,900
key verse to write down and use
as your main weapon against your
599
00:38:51,900 –> 00:38:53,900
giant.
I’m going to flip through a few
600
00:38:53,900 –> 00:38:57,600
that we’ve used this week, a few
that might be helpful for you.
601
00:38:58,700 –> 00:39:02,400
They might not but be very
helpful to just find a verse
602
00:39:04,400 –> 00:39:06,500
There’s a couple we looked at on
Monday.
603
00:39:08,400 –> 00:39:10,100
Put to death.
Therefore, what is Earthly in
604
00:39:10,100 –> 00:39:14,500
you Colossians draw nigh to God
and He will draw nigh to you and
605
00:39:14,500 –> 00:39:18,500
James?
What about the story of Caleb
606
00:39:18,500 –> 00:39:21,500
and Joshua speech about how
Giants can be like manna that
607
00:39:21,500 –> 00:39:25,100
melts in the Sun?
Numbers 14 verse 9.
608
00:39:26,000 –> 00:39:29,600
What about the story we looked
at in Deuteronomy chapter 2
609
00:39:29,700 –> 00:39:33,600
that’s God was going to use
Israel as an example of his
610
00:39:33,600 –> 00:39:37,700
might and his power.
So the rest of the nations would
611
00:39:37,700 –> 00:39:39,800
tremble and be in anguish
because of them.
612
00:39:41,800 –> 00:39:43,900
About the verse about Caleb and
Ephesians.
613
00:39:44,500 –> 00:39:47,300
The Gentiles should be fellow
heirs and of the same body and
614
00:39:47,300 –> 00:39:50,000
partakers of his promise in
Christ by the gospel.
615
00:39:51,100 –> 00:39:57,200
That can be us but the work
found in Hebrews 6, the
616
00:39:57,200 –> 00:40:00,300
diligence for the Assurance of
Hope.
617
00:40:01,700 –> 00:40:08,000
To be not slothful, but
followers. once you’ve found
618
00:40:08,000 –> 00:40:11,700
your verse brothers and sisters,
the final question is, where can
619
00:40:11,700 –> 00:40:15,900
we post Place stick, right?
Or frame, this verse that will
620
00:40:15,900 –> 00:40:19,700
be the best reminder for you.
I recommend going back to
621
00:40:19,700 –> 00:40:21,400
question number two, which we
answered on Monday.
622
00:40:22,900 –> 00:40:27,900
Where does your giant live?
Let me just grab a sticky note.
623
00:40:28,300 –> 00:40:31,400
Write it down.
Slap it where your giant lives.
624
00:40:32,300 –> 00:40:42,000
Just as a reminder, We all can
be Giants. so, as we prepare now
625
00:40:42,000 –> 00:40:48,200
to depart from what has been for
me, And Incredibly uplifting and
626
00:40:48,200 –> 00:40:52,400
encouraging week around God’s
word. let’s leave here having
627
00:40:52,400 –> 00:40:57,800
shed that armor of Saul which
weighs us down and putting on
628
00:40:57,800 –> 00:41:00,700
instead.
The Zeal of Calum.
629
00:41:02,600 –> 00:41:07,900
The faith of King David.
The dedication of EXO.
630
00:41:09,900 –> 00:41:15,000
The courage of Joshua.
The humility of Moses.
631
00:41:17,000 –> 00:41:22,300
In the mind of Christ.
May we approach our Giants
632
00:41:22,500 –> 00:41:26,400
slings and hand.
Understanding that is not a
633
00:41:26,408 –> 00:41:30,300
strength by our own arm that we
bring it down.
634
00:41:31,700 –> 00:41:37,600
But in the strength of Our
Father who works in US, may we
635
00:41:37,600 –> 00:41:41,900
all meet together soon.
And the kingdom of Our Lord as
636
00:41:42,100 –> 00:41:46,300
brothers and sisters.
Who fought with giants until the
637
00:41:46,300 –> 00:41:50,400
end.
Maybe look only to scriptures is
638
00:41:50,400 –> 00:41:54,300
our guide.
And may we apply to our own
639
00:41:54,300 –> 00:41:58,800
lives, these principles of the
Tails of the Giants.
