\n00:00:13,880 –> 00:00:15,600
\nWelcome to Good Chris Selfie and
\ntalks. <\/p>\n

2
\n00:00:15,600 –> 00:00:17,320
\nI’m Levi.
\nAnd I’m Chris. <\/p>\n

3
\n00:00:17,560 –> 00:00:19,480
\nAnd I’m Brian.
\nThank you for joining us this <\/p>\n

4
\n00:00:19,480 –> 00:00:21,960
\nweek.
\nOn this podcast, we select one <\/p>\n

5
\n00:00:21,960 –> 00:00:26,200
\ntalk a week to help us get the
\nBible in our Daily News feed. <\/p>\n

6
\n00:00:26,520 –> 00:00:29,080
\nWe post a new episode at the
\nstart of each week with the <\/p>\n

7
\n00:00:29,080 –> 00:00:31,840
\nshort intro beforehand to kind
\nof set the stage for the talk <\/p>\n

8
\n00:00:31,840 –> 00:00:35,440
\nyou’re about to listen to.
\nAnd now, let’s talk more about <\/p>\n

9
\n00:00:35,440 –> 00:00:52,920
\nthis week’s talk.
\nHi everyone, it’s Jason Hensley <\/p>\n

10
\n00:00:52,920 –> 00:00:56,880
\nand in this episode we are going
\nto be listening to a Class by <\/p>\n

11
\n00:00:56,880 –> 00:01:01,320
\nBrother J Mayock given in
\nJanuary 2024. <\/p>\n

12
\n00:01:01,760 –> 00:01:05,400
\nThis is a pretty recent addition
\nto our library. <\/p>\n

13
\n00:01:06,360 –> 00:01:09,240
\nThis class was given at the
\nThousand Oaks, Christadelphia, <\/p>\n

14
\n00:01:09,240 –> 00:01:13,680
\nNeclegia.
\nSo also fairly close by the <\/p>\n

15
\n00:01:13,680 –> 00:01:18,720
\nreason I really like this class.
\nThis is #4 on a series about the<\/p>\n

16
\n00:01:18,720 –> 00:01:21,680
\nKingdom of God called What Will
\nthe Kingdom Be Like? <\/p>\n

17
\n00:01:22,920 –> 00:01:26,280
\nAnd I really liked it because
\nthere’s a lot of pieces about <\/p>\n

18
\n00:01:26,280 –> 00:01:29,720
\nthe Kingdom.
\nI think that we often consider, <\/p>\n

19
\n00:01:29,720 –> 00:01:34,080
\nor maybe take for granted,
\nthings like eternal life or <\/p>\n

20
\n00:01:34,320 –> 00:01:36,440
\npeace being brought amongst
\neveryone. <\/p>\n

21
\n00:01:36,720 –> 00:01:39,280
\nAnd while those are very good
\nthings to think about, I think <\/p>\n

22
\n00:01:39,280 –> 00:01:41,480
\nthey’re things that we often do
\nthink about. <\/p>\n

23
\n00:01:41,480 –> 00:01:43,440
\nThat’s what I mean when I say
\ntake them for granted. <\/p>\n

24
\n00:01:43,440 –> 00:01:45,160
\nWe we already think about them,
\nwe know them. <\/p>\n

25
\n00:01:47,280 –> 00:01:52,080
\nThis topic though, this idea of
\nthe animals, it’s one that we <\/p>\n

26
\n00:01:52,080 –> 00:01:55,040
\nhear about, but I don’t really
\nfeel like we think about it a <\/p>\n

27
\n00:01:55,040 –> 00:01:58,400
\nlot.
\nWhat Brother Jay talks about <\/p>\n

28
\n00:01:58,400 –> 00:02:03,800
\nhere is what’s meant when
\npassages about the Kingdom tell <\/p>\n

29
\n00:02:03,800 –> 00:02:06,080
\nus that the wolf will lie down
\nwith the lamb. <\/p>\n

30
\n00:02:06,320 –> 00:02:08,800
\nWhat’s the point of that?
\nWhat’s the whole idea going on? <\/p>\n

31
\n00:02:09,240 –> 00:02:12,000
\nAnd one of the things that I I
\nreally, really like that he does<\/p>\n

32
\n00:02:12,000 –> 00:02:19,240
\nhere is he presents the question
\nof is this literal or is it <\/p>\n

33
\n00:02:19,240 –> 00:02:22,720
\nallegorical?
\nAre we literally going to see <\/p>\n

34
\n00:02:23,000 –> 00:02:28,840
\nwolves lying down with sheep?
\nIs that going to be a thing or <\/p>\n

35
\n00:02:29,560 –> 00:02:32,840
\nis this some kind of symbology?
\nI’m not. <\/p>\n

36
\n00:02:32,840 –> 00:02:35,160
\nGoing to answer that question
\nbecause I don’t want to give you<\/p>\n

37
\n00:02:35,160 –> 00:02:38,480
\na spoiler here, but go ahead,
\nlisten to the class, see what <\/p>\n

38
\n00:02:38,480 –> 00:02:40,840
\nyou think about his answer.
\nI I absolutely love it. <\/p>\n

39
\n00:02:41,240 –> 00:02:43,680
\nI think it’s a great approach
\nand I think it’s a really <\/p>\n

40
\n00:02:43,840 –> 00:02:50,600
\nhelpful way to get us picturing
\nwhat that Kingdom will be like <\/p>\n

41
\n00:02:50,920 –> 00:02:53,560
\nand inspire us to want to be
\nthere. <\/p>\n

42
\n00:02:54,640 –> 00:02:58,480
\nSo.
\nHere it is Brother Jamioc what <\/p>\n

43
\n00:02:58,480 –> 00:03:02,320
\nthe Kingdom will be like class
\n#4, the animals. <\/p>\n

44
\n00:03:04,200 –> 00:03:09,480
\nSo this now is the it’s the last
\npiece of our examination of the <\/p>\n

45
\n00:03:09,480 –> 00:03:14,000
\nKingdom today, and I’ve left one
\nof one of the ones I’m most <\/p>\n

46
\n00:03:14,000 –> 00:03:19,200
\nexcited about for the end.
\nWhat’s it going to be like? <\/p>\n

47
\n00:03:19,200 –> 00:03:21,400
\nWhat’s what’s going on in Isaiah
\nChapter 11? <\/p>\n

48
\n00:03:22,600 –> 00:03:27,680
\nOne of the tricky things about
\ngetting a vision of the Kingdom <\/p>\n

49
\n00:03:27,680 –> 00:03:31,240
\nis that so many of the passages
\nthat we read about are simply <\/p>\n

50
\n00:03:31,240 –> 00:03:34,040
\nsnapshots.
\nYou can get a snapshot of <\/p>\n

51
\n00:03:34,040 –> 00:03:35,640
\nsomething that’s happening at a
\ncertain moment. <\/p>\n

52
\n00:03:35,640 –> 00:03:39,200
\nThere’s there’s precious little
\ndescription of long periods of <\/p>\n

53
\n00:03:39,200 –> 00:03:42,080
\ntime.
\nYou get, you get a piece a flash<\/p>\n

54
\n00:03:42,080 –> 00:03:45,000
\nof what’s going to be happening
\nin a particular period, and it’s<\/p>\n

55
\n00:03:45,000 –> 00:03:46,600
\nup to us to kind of put them
\ntogether. <\/p>\n

56
\n00:03:47,800 –> 00:03:49,520
\nAnd this is one of the most
\ninteresting ones. <\/p>\n

57
\n00:03:51,000 –> 00:03:56,000
\nIt’s interesting because I think
\nwe use it a lot in lectures. <\/p>\n

58
\n00:03:56,920 –> 00:03:59,880
\nWe use it a lot with our
\nchildren as they’re growing up. <\/p>\n

59
\n00:03:59,880 –> 00:04:02,760
\nI remember hearing about this a
\nwhole lot, this transformation <\/p>\n

60
\n00:04:02,760 –> 00:04:06,560
\nof the animals, and it got to a
\npoint where I realized that I <\/p>\n

61
\n00:04:06,560 –> 00:04:08,760
\njust didn’t know how to prove it
\none way or another. <\/p>\n

62
\n00:04:10,960 –> 00:04:16,079
\nThis was my question.
\nIsaiah Chapter 11, Is this <\/p>\n

63
\n00:04:17,000 –> 00:04:23,960
\nliteral or allegorical?
\nAnd so I was having a hard time <\/p>\n

64
\n00:04:23,960 –> 00:04:27,560
\nwith us.
\nAnd rather than just sitting <\/p>\n

65
\n00:04:27,560 –> 00:04:30,320
\ndown and looking at things,
\nwhich I tried to do, I thought <\/p>\n

66
\n00:04:30,320 –> 00:04:33,280
\nthe best bet was to save as much
\ntime as you can and talk to <\/p>\n

67
\n00:04:33,280 –> 00:04:35,760
\nother brothers and sisters, to
\nlisten to some classes, to read <\/p>\n

68
\n00:04:35,760 –> 00:04:38,240
\nwhat’s been written.
\nAnd I think we’ve got so much <\/p>\n

69
\n00:04:38,240 –> 00:04:43,880
\navailable to do that now.
\nWe have so much. <\/p>\n

70
\n00:04:44,320 –> 00:04:47,480
\nI mean, could you imagine, like,
\nyou know, Brother Cece Walker? <\/p>\n

71
\n00:04:47,640 –> 00:04:48,960
\nOh, we got brother Cece Walker
\nhere. <\/p>\n

72
\n00:04:48,960 –> 00:04:50,600
\nHe’s hanging out.
\nHe’s at the back over there. <\/p>\n

73
\n00:04:51,440 –> 00:04:54,520
\nNobody goes over to talk to him.
\nAsk him what he thinks about <\/p>\n

74
\n00:04:55,920 –> 00:04:58,360
\nabout Isaiah, Chapter 11, and
\nwe’ve got him. <\/p>\n

75
\n00:04:58,360 –> 00:05:00,280
\nHe’s like back there, He wrote
\nMinistry of the Prophets with <\/p>\n

76
\n00:05:00,280 –> 00:05:03,120
\nBrother Roberts.
\nIsaiah 11 was his section. <\/p>\n

77
\n00:05:03,120 –> 00:05:06,720
\nWhat’s he think about?
\nWe’ve got so much that’s been <\/p>\n

78
\n00:05:07,320 –> 00:05:12,560
\ngiven to us, and it’s really
\nimportant to make use of those <\/p>\n

79
\n00:05:12,560 –> 00:05:13,920
\nthings.
\nAnd I’ve been so pleasantly <\/p>\n

80
\n00:05:13,920 –> 00:05:18,080
\nsurprised so many times,
\nparticularly with some of the <\/p>\n

81
\n00:05:18,080 –> 00:05:20,280
\nolder stuff in our community
\nlike the early. <\/p>\n

82
\n00:05:20,720 –> 00:05:23,000
\nI see a lot of heads nodding
\nlike early Christadelphia <\/p>\n

83
\n00:05:23,000 –> 00:05:26,200
\nmagazines, like early 1900s kind
\nof thing. <\/p>\n

84
\n00:05:27,120 –> 00:05:28,960
\nReally helpful with a lot of
\nthis kind of stuff. <\/p>\n

85
\n00:05:30,600 –> 00:05:35,240
\nIs it literal or allegorical?
\nHere’s where I landed It’s <\/p>\n

86
\n00:05:35,240 –> 00:05:43,560
\nliteral and it’s allegorical.
\nIsn’t that great when it works <\/p>\n

87
\n00:05:43,560 –> 00:05:45,400
\nout like that?
\nNo, I really think you can prove<\/p>\n

88
\n00:05:45,400 –> 00:05:48,160
\nit.
\nAnd that’s the thing. <\/p>\n

89
\n00:05:48,160 –> 00:05:51,440
\nIt’s a good question to ask
\nbecause in the day that we live <\/p>\n

90
\n00:05:51,440 –> 00:05:55,120
\nin now, you’ve got all kinds of
\ngoofy views about Genesis. <\/p>\n

91
\n00:05:55,120 –> 00:05:59,560
\nIt’s like, ah, it’s an allegory.
\nChapters 1 to 11, Creation. <\/p>\n

92
\n00:06:00,080 –> 00:06:03,640
\nIt’s not really, was it what it
\nsays, you know, Babel, that kind<\/p>\n

93
\n00:06:03,640 –> 00:06:06,800
\nof stuff.
\nIt’s an allegory, of course. <\/p>\n

94
\n00:06:06,800 –> 00:06:11,840
\nIt’s an allegory based upon a
\nliteral narrative of what <\/p>\n

95
\n00:06:11,840 –> 00:06:14,400
\nhappened.
\nYou can have it both ways. <\/p>\n

96
\n00:06:16,000 –> 00:06:18,600
\nTypes are allegories.
\nBut it really happened. <\/p>\n

97
\n00:06:18,600 –> 00:06:22,960
\nJoseph was a real man who lived
\nand who suffered and who was <\/p>\n

98
\n00:06:22,960 –> 00:06:26,600
\nexalted and who died and who
\nwaits for a real resurrection. <\/p>\n

99
\n00:06:27,040 –> 00:06:33,480
\nBut his life experience, the
\nimpress of Messiah, is upon his <\/p>\n

100
\n00:06:33,480 –> 00:06:36,760
\nlife.
\nIt’s literal and it’s <\/p>\n

101
\n00:06:36,760 –> 00:06:38,760
\nallegorical.
\nSo what’s the literal narrative <\/p>\n

102
\n00:06:38,760 –> 00:06:40,480
\nall about?
\nAnd how would we prove that it <\/p>\n

103
\n00:06:40,480 –> 00:06:45,400
\nis in fact, literal?
\nWell, I I think we just have to <\/p>\n

104
\n00:06:45,400 –> 00:06:47,720
\nhave a look at the way it was
\nway back at the beginning, <\/p>\n

105
\n00:06:47,720 –> 00:06:50,240
\nright?
\nIs that where you start? <\/p>\n

106
\n00:06:51,560 –> 00:06:54,920
\nAnd so in Genesis, it says that
\nin chapter one, verse 30, to <\/p>\n

107
\n00:06:54,920 –> 00:06:57,280
\nevery beast of the earth and to
\nevery fowl of the air and to <\/p>\n

108
\n00:06:57,280 –> 00:07:01,520
\neverything that creepeth upon
\nthe earth, where in his life I <\/p>\n

109
\n00:07:01,520 –> 00:07:03,840
\nhave given every green herb for
\nfood. <\/p>\n

110
\n00:07:04,200 –> 00:07:06,840
\nAnd it was so.
\nSo the animals were once <\/p>\n

111
\n00:07:09,720 –> 00:07:11,080
\nherbivorous.
\nHerbivorous. <\/p>\n

112
\n00:07:11,080 –> 00:07:13,400
\nI don’t know how you say that
\nyou know what it means. <\/p>\n

113
\n00:07:14,000 –> 00:07:18,200
\nThey didn’t eat meat in the
\nbeginning, but the way it became<\/p>\n

114
\n00:07:19,040 –> 00:07:23,560
\nwas quite different.
\nSo this this kind of docile and <\/p>\n

115
\n00:07:25,440 –> 00:07:28,200
\nnon threatening temperament at
\nthe animals and also their <\/p>\n

116
\n00:07:28,200 –> 00:07:31,000
\nabilities seem to have been
\nchanged at a particular time. <\/p>\n

117
\n00:07:31,560 –> 00:07:35,520
\nAnd in Deuteronomy chapter 32,
\nwhich is a history of the nation<\/p>\n

118
\n00:07:35,520 –> 00:07:39,040
\nof Israel, we give some of the
\nthe judgments we’re given, some <\/p>\n

119
\n00:07:39,040 –> 00:07:42,960
\nof the judgments from the mouth
\nof Moses that would come upon <\/p>\n

120
\n00:07:42,960 –> 00:07:46,400
\nthe nation.
\nI will also send the teeth of <\/p>\n

121
\n00:07:46,400 –> 00:07:50,600
\nbeasts upon them with the poison
\nof serpents of the dust. <\/p>\n

122
\n00:07:50,600 –> 00:07:53,080
\nSo these wild animals would
\nbring death and destruction to <\/p>\n

123
\n00:07:53,080 –> 00:07:56,320
\nthe people, to the children of
\nIsrael when they broke God’s <\/p>\n

124
\n00:07:56,320 –> 00:07:58,800
\ncovenant.
\nIs this literal or allegorable? <\/p>\n

125
\n00:08:01,760 –> 00:08:05,040
\nIt’s at least literal that it
\nliterally happened with the <\/p>\n

126
\n00:08:05,040 –> 00:08:09,360
\nteeth of beasts.
\nOh, you could ask those 42 <\/p>\n

127
\n00:08:09,360 –> 00:08:13,520
\nyouths that were mauled by the
\nShe Bears in the days of Elijah.<\/p>\n

128
\n00:08:15,440 –> 00:08:18,160
\nThat was literal.
\nYou can also have a look at the <\/p>\n

129
\n00:08:19,440 –> 00:08:24,120
\nthe serpents and you can ask the
\nchildren of Israel who were <\/p>\n

130
\n00:08:24,120 –> 00:08:28,680
\nplagued by those creatures
\nbefore they before Moses made <\/p>\n

131
\n00:08:28,680 –> 00:08:31,360
\none of brass and lifted it and
\nput it up on a pole. <\/p>\n

132
\n00:08:31,360 –> 00:08:35,200
\nThat was literal, wasn’t it?
\nBut certainly they become <\/p>\n

133
\n00:08:35,200 –> 00:08:39,200
\nallegorical of other things as
\nwell, of other things that we’ll<\/p>\n

134
\n00:08:39,200 –> 00:08:41,559
\ntalk about.
\nWhat’s the allegorical meaning? <\/p>\n

135
\n00:08:41,559 –> 00:08:42,880
\nWhat did these animals
\nrepresent? <\/p>\n

136
\n00:08:42,960 –> 00:08:46,800
\nWho did these animals represent
\nfrom an allegorical standpoint? <\/p>\n

137
\n00:08:48,800 –> 00:08:51,280
\nYeah, I hear some whispering.
\nI don’t hear the words, but I <\/p>\n

138
\n00:08:51,280 –> 00:08:52,880
\nthink we’re on the same same
\ntrack. <\/p>\n

139
\n00:08:52,880 –> 00:08:54,720
\nThat’s good.
\nHosea 13. <\/p>\n

140
\n00:08:55,480 –> 00:09:00,160
\nIt says that God says that I’m
\ngoing to be unto them as a lion <\/p>\n

141
\n00:09:00,280 –> 00:09:03,160
\nand as a leopard.
\nBy the way, will I observe them?<\/p>\n

142
\n00:09:04,000 –> 00:09:06,760
\nI will meet them as a bear that
\nis bereaved of her whelps, and <\/p>\n

143
\n00:09:06,760 –> 00:09:08,640
\nwill rend the call of their
\nheart. <\/p>\n

144
\n00:09:08,760 –> 00:09:13,400
\nAnd there will I devour them
\nlike a lion, and wild beasts <\/p>\n

145
\n00:09:13,400 –> 00:09:16,280
\nshall tear them.
\nAnd he’s talking in particular <\/p>\n

146
\n00:09:16,280 –> 00:09:18,560
\nthe lion, the bear.
\nThe leopards here used as <\/p>\n

147
\n00:09:18,560 –> 00:09:23,320
\nsymbols of nations.
\nBecause God describes himself as<\/p>\n

148
\n00:09:23,320 –> 00:09:26,760
\nwild animals that came to judge
\nthe people, He was working <\/p>\n

149
\n00:09:27,160 –> 00:09:31,280
\namongst the nations to bring
\nthem against his people in <\/p>\n

150
\n00:09:31,280 –> 00:09:33,720
\njudgments against His covenant.
\nSo check this out. <\/p>\n

151
\n00:09:33,720 –> 00:09:37,600
\nYou ready for this?
\nIsaiah, Chapter 11. <\/p>\n

152
\n00:09:38,040 –> 00:09:41,960
\nIt says in verse nine they shall
\nnot hurt nor destroy in all my <\/p>\n

153
\n00:09:41,960 –> 00:09:49,520
\nHoly Mountain.
\nSo when did wild beasts hurt and<\/p>\n

154
\n00:09:49,520 –> 00:09:53,120
\ndestroy in Yahweh’s Holy
\nMountain? <\/p>\n

155
\n00:09:54,680 –> 00:10:04,920
\nWhen did they do that?
\nIsrael is a scattered sheep. <\/p>\n

156
\n00:10:05,840 –> 00:10:10,920
\nThe lions have driven him away.
\nFirst the king of Assyria has <\/p>\n

157
\n00:10:10,920 –> 00:10:13,480
\ndevoured him.
\nAnd last, this Nebuchadnezzar <\/p>\n

158
\n00:10:13,480 –> 00:10:16,040
\nking of Babylon hath broken his
\nbones. <\/p>\n

159
\n00:10:16,440 –> 00:10:19,640
\nAnd so lions are used as symbols
\nof the kings of Assyria in <\/p>\n

160
\n00:10:19,640 –> 00:10:23,120
\nBabylon, right?
\nDid Assyria make it into the <\/p>\n

161
\n00:10:23,120 –> 00:10:25,560
\ncity?
\nNo. <\/p>\n

162
\n00:10:26,600 –> 00:10:30,720
\nSennacherib shook his first in
\neyesight of the city. <\/p>\n

163
\n00:10:30,720 –> 00:10:32,640
\nHe was ready to come up.
\nHe sent his messenger down <\/p>\n

164
\n00:10:32,640 –> 00:10:35,640
\nthere, Rabcheka, to torment the
\npeople and to encourage them to <\/p>\n

165
\n00:10:35,640 –> 00:10:37,240
\nsurrender.
\nBut he never got in there, <\/p>\n

166
\n00:10:37,360 –> 00:10:38,680
\naccording to the prophecy of
\nGod. <\/p>\n

167
\n00:10:38,800 –> 00:10:41,280
\nBut it was different for
\nNebuchadnezzar. <\/p>\n

168
\n00:10:41,280 –> 00:10:44,000
\nHe got into the city, didn’t he?
\nThe city was burned. <\/p>\n

169
\n00:10:44,120 –> 00:10:45,760
\nThe children of Israel went into
\ncaptivity. <\/p>\n

170
\n00:10:45,880 –> 00:10:49,000
\nThey hurt and destroyed in the
\nholy mountain back in those <\/p>\n

171
\n00:10:49,000 –> 00:10:51,920
\ndays.
\nAnd so where we have lions used <\/p>\n

172
\n00:10:51,920 –> 00:10:55,240
\nas symbols of the kings of
\nAssyria in Babylon, domesticated<\/p>\n

173
\n00:10:55,240 –> 00:11:01,440
\nsheep, scattered sheep are used
\nas symbols of Israel in this. <\/p>\n

174
\n00:11:01,480 –> 00:11:08,080
\nIn this parable that we have
\nhere in this prophecy we also <\/p>\n

175
\n00:11:08,080 –> 00:11:10,360
\nread about that we know this to
\nbe true. <\/p>\n

176
\n00:11:10,360 –> 00:11:12,080
\nThe lion.
\nDaniel Chapter 7. <\/p>\n

177
\n00:11:12,080 –> 00:11:19,520
\nThe vision of the four beasts,
\nthe bear, the leopard and that <\/p>\n

178
\n00:11:19,520 –> 00:11:25,360
\nfourth beast.
\nAnd Rome eventually by 1:35 I <\/p>\n

179
\n00:11:25,360 –> 00:11:28,360
\nbelieve it was just razed the
\ncity to the ground and so do <\/p>\n

180
\n00:11:28,360 –> 00:11:33,760
\nassault.
\nThis is when the wild beasts, <\/p>\n

181
\n00:11:34,560 –> 00:11:40,040
\nthe nations came in to hurt and
\ndestroy in the holy mountain. <\/p>\n

182
\n00:11:40,040 –> 00:11:44,760
\nSo just by way of summary, the
\nlaw predicted that Israel would <\/p>\n

183
\n00:11:44,760 –> 00:11:47,160
\nbe punished for breaking the
\ncovenant with their God. <\/p>\n

184
\n00:11:47,640 –> 00:11:50,840
\nAnd the curses of the law
\ndescribed how Yahweh would bring<\/p>\n

185
\n00:11:50,840 –> 00:11:53,480
\nwild animals and foreign nations
\nagainst them. <\/p>\n

186
\n00:11:54,160 –> 00:11:56,640
\nAnd animals are often used as
\nsymbols of the nations and the <\/p>\n

187
\n00:11:56,640 –> 00:12:00,480
\nword of God.
\nYeah, it’s a good little <\/p>\n

188
\n00:12:00,480 –> 00:12:01,760
\nsummering.
\nThat’s where we are. <\/p>\n

189
\n00:12:04,760 –> 00:12:08,360
\nSo why is man described as being
\na beast, nations, but also <\/p>\n

190
\n00:12:08,600 –> 00:12:12,760
\npeople themselves?
\nWell, the Apostle Peter <\/p>\n

191
\n00:12:12,760 –> 00:12:17,800
\ndescribed some that were
\nactually very active in the <\/p>\n

192
\n00:12:17,800 –> 00:12:20,760
\nEcclesia in the 1st century, and
\nthey were causing lots of <\/p>\n

193
\n00:12:20,760 –> 00:12:26,040
\nproblems because they were
\nbehaving like beasts, like <\/p>\n

194
\n00:12:26,040 –> 00:12:27,680
\nanimals.
\nAnd we’ll talk about what that <\/p>\n

195
\n00:12:27,680 –> 00:12:30,440
\nmeans.
\nHe says these as natural, brute <\/p>\n

196
\n00:12:30,440 –> 00:12:34,280
\nbeasts made to be taken and
\ndestroyed, speak evil of the <\/p>\n

197
\n00:12:34,280 –> 00:12:37,920
\nthings they understand not and
\nshall utterly perish in their <\/p>\n

198
\n00:12:37,920 –> 00:12:41,280
\nown corruption.
\nSo that word natural there means<\/p>\n

199
\n00:12:41,480 –> 00:12:44,640
\nphysical or instinctive.
\nAnd that’s really the key here. <\/p>\n

200
\n00:12:44,640 –> 00:12:47,360
\nThat’s the that’s the amazing
\nthing about what happens in <\/p>\n

201
\n00:12:47,360 –> 00:12:51,560
\nIsaiah Chapter 11 is that
\nanimals are we’re all built with<\/p>\n

202
\n00:12:51,560 –> 00:12:57,680
\nour own instincts, animal
\ninstincts, animals and people. <\/p>\n

203
\n00:12:57,680 –> 00:13:01,480
\nAnd it’s one of the reasons why
\nit’s got to be one of the <\/p>\n

204
\n00:13:01,480 –> 00:13:06,160
\nreasons why animals, beasts, and
\nman are created on the 6th day. <\/p>\n

205
\n00:13:07,400 –> 00:13:09,080
\nBecause you get to choose
\nwhether or not you’re going to <\/p>\n

206
\n00:13:09,080 –> 00:13:12,720
\nbe like the beasts who were
\ncreated on the 6th day or the <\/p>\n

207
\n00:13:12,720 –> 00:13:14,240
\nGod who created you in his
\nimage. <\/p>\n

208
\n00:13:15,000 –> 00:13:19,680
\nThat’s that’s what our choices
\nand that word root there means. <\/p>\n

209
\n00:13:19,680 –> 00:13:28,160
\nIrrational or unreasonable, they
\ncan’t reason, and that’s what <\/p>\n

210
\n00:13:28,160 –> 00:13:31,440
\nit’s all about with the animal.
\nThe animal is is someone who <\/p>\n

211
\n00:13:31,440 –> 00:13:33,200
\ncan’t attain to spiritual
\nthings. <\/p>\n

212
\n00:13:33,200 –> 00:13:36,680
\nIn particular, Jude 10 talks
\nabout that as well, if you’re <\/p>\n

213
\n00:13:36,680 –> 00:13:39,520
\nkeeping track.
\nSo beasts or wild animals are <\/p>\n

214
\n00:13:39,520 –> 00:13:41,600
\nnatural.
\nThey’re instinctive, they’re <\/p>\n

215
\n00:13:41,600 –> 00:13:43,840
\ngoverned by their instincts.
\nThey’re irrational. <\/p>\n

216
\n00:13:43,840 –> 00:13:47,080
\nThey can’t reason beyond those
\ninstincts. <\/p>\n

217
\n00:13:47,480 –> 00:13:51,240
\nThey’re violent, their
\ndestructive and second Peter <\/p>\n

218
\n00:13:51,240 –> 00:13:55,000
\nwould tell us that they are also
\nself-destructive. <\/p>\n

219
\n00:13:55,720 –> 00:13:58,320
\nThat is that’s what a beast is
\nall about. <\/p>\n

220
\n00:13:58,320 –> 00:14:03,080
\nSo when we come here to Isaiah,
\nChapter 11, and we’ve already <\/p>\n

221
\n00:14:03,080 –> 00:14:06,480
\nseen how it was in the rest of
\nthe scriptures of truth at the <\/p>\n

222
\n00:14:06,480 –> 00:14:09,080
\nvery beginning, how it was at
\nthe very beginning in natural <\/p>\n

223
\n00:14:09,080 –> 00:14:11,840
\ncreation, I’m going to ask you
\nthis question. <\/p>\n

224
\n00:14:14,080 –> 00:14:18,440
\nCan you think about any other
\npassages in scripture that give <\/p>\n

225
\n00:14:18,440 –> 00:14:23,160
\nus a glimpse of the
\npossibilities of animal <\/p>\n

226
\n00:14:23,160 –> 00:14:25,920
\ntransfer, animal transformation
\nin the Kingdom? <\/p>\n

227
\n00:14:27,320 –> 00:14:32,000
\nEver thought about like that,
\nwhere animals like go against <\/p>\n

228
\n00:14:32,000 –> 00:14:35,120
\ntheir instincts?
\nCause the stuff we read about <\/p>\n

229
\n00:14:35,120 –> 00:14:41,400
\nIsaiah 11 is not natural.
\nCan you think of anything You <\/p>\n

230
\n00:14:41,400 –> 00:14:42,880
\ncan call this one out?
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

231
\n00:14:43,360 –> 00:14:47,200
\nGood.
\nDaniel, Chapter 6. <\/p>\n

232
\n00:14:50,800 –> 00:14:54,280
\nOK OK All right.
\nOh, Noah’s ark. <\/p>\n

233
\n00:14:54,640 –> 00:14:56,200
\nBalaam’s donkey.
\nWhat’s another one? <\/p>\n

234
\n00:14:57,720 –> 00:15:00,360
\nIt’s a bunch of them.
\nIt’s interesting, right? <\/p>\n

235
\n00:15:00,360 –> 00:15:01,840
\nYou start to think about it.
\nIt’s like, wait a minute. <\/p>\n

236
\n00:15:01,840 –> 00:15:05,720
\nIs is Isaiah 11 like, the only
\ntime those kinds of things <\/p>\n

237
\n00:15:05,720 –> 00:15:06,480
\nhappen?
\nNo. <\/p>\n

238
\n00:15:06,800 –> 00:15:08,480
\nWe get little glimpses along the
\nway. <\/p>\n

239
\n00:15:08,960 –> 00:15:12,120
\nInteresting.
\nSo here, here’s a list that I <\/p>\n

240
\n00:15:12,120 –> 00:15:13,560
\nput together.
\nIf we have some other ones, <\/p>\n

241
\n00:15:13,560 –> 00:15:15,400
\nthat’d be great to hear as we go
\nalong. <\/p>\n

242
\n00:15:15,800 –> 00:15:18,920
\nIt says that they went in unto
\nNoah the animals into the ark, <\/p>\n

243
\n00:15:18,920 –> 00:15:22,120
\ntwo and two of all flesh.
\nWherein is the breath of life, <\/p>\n

244
\n00:15:22,640 –> 00:15:26,360
\nhuh?
\nNatural instincts would not <\/p>\n

245
\n00:15:26,360 –> 00:15:29,920
\nencourage, excuse me, would not
\nlead the animals into the ark. <\/p>\n

246
\n00:15:30,840 –> 00:15:32,560
\nLike, obviously God is involved
\nhere. <\/p>\n

247
\n00:15:32,800 –> 00:15:34,120
\nThese animals are coming to
\nNoah. <\/p>\n

248
\n00:15:34,120 –> 00:15:36,560
\nThey’re going against something
\nthat’s natural. <\/p>\n

249
\n00:15:36,840 –> 00:15:40,160
\nTheir instincts are being like
\nsomething else is happening <\/p>\n

250
\n00:15:40,160 –> 00:15:47,200
\nhere.
\nFirst, Kings chapter 13. <\/p>\n

251
\n00:15:47,720 –> 00:15:50,600
\nRemember you got like the
\nprophet, the disobedient prophet<\/p>\n

252
\n00:15:50,680 –> 00:15:53,160
\nand he gets mauled by the lion.
\nRemember that whole episode <\/p>\n

253
\n00:15:53,160 –> 00:15:55,680
\nhere?
\nIn verse 28 it says he went and <\/p>\n

254
\n00:15:55,680 –> 00:15:58,000
\nfound his body.
\nSo there’s two different He’s <\/p>\n

255
\n00:15:58,000 –> 00:15:59,440
\nhere like you don’t go and find
\nyour own. <\/p>\n

256
\n00:15:59,560 –> 00:16:04,160
\nAnyway, he went and found his
\nbody thrown in the road and the <\/p>\n

257
\n00:16:04,160 –> 00:16:07,320
\ndonkey and the lion standing
\nbeside the body. <\/p>\n

258
\n00:16:07,800 –> 00:16:11,040
\nThe lion had not eaten the body
\nor torn the donkey. <\/p>\n

259
\n00:16:11,040 –> 00:16:16,120
\nHuh.
\nNatural instincts would not <\/p>\n

260
\n00:16:16,120 –> 00:16:18,800
\nencourage the donkey to remain
\nbeside a lion, would it? <\/p>\n

261
\n00:16:20,240 –> 00:16:24,240
\nLike this is what’s going on
\nhere, and this is all a parable.<\/p>\n

262
\n00:16:24,320 –> 00:16:26,440
\nIt’s not our time to talk about
\nthis particular parable. <\/p>\n

263
\n00:16:26,600 –> 00:16:31,320
\nIt really happened, but it was
\nto signify something, and these <\/p>\n

264
\n00:16:31,320 –> 00:16:34,080
\nnatural instincts would not
\nrestrain a lion from devouring a<\/p>\n

265
\n00:16:34,080 –> 00:16:36,400
\nbody he had already killed.
\nWhat kind of lion does that, <\/p>\n

266
\n00:16:36,680 –> 00:16:39,160
\nnecessarily?
\nI don’t have a lot of experience<\/p>\n

267
\n00:16:39,160 –> 00:16:40,960
\nwith lions, but it seems out of
\nthe ordinary. <\/p>\n

268
\n00:16:41,920 –> 00:16:45,200
\nNatural instincts would also not
\ndeny a lion of an easy meal like<\/p>\n

269
\n00:16:45,200 –> 00:16:52,160
\nthis donkey.
\nIt literally happened, but it <\/p>\n

270
\n00:16:52,160 –> 00:16:54,240
\nwas meant to signify something
\nelse. <\/p>\n

271
\n00:16:54,280 –> 00:16:56,320
\nWhat about this one?
\nFirst Kings 17. <\/p>\n

272
\n00:16:56,800 –> 00:16:59,520
\nGod says to Elijah, I have
\ncommanded the Ravens to feed <\/p>\n

273
\n00:16:59,520 –> 00:17:01,400
\nthee there.
\nRavens are going to feed you. <\/p>\n

274
\n00:17:03,240 –> 00:17:06,079
\nYuck.
\nRavens brought them bread and <\/p>\n

275
\n00:17:06,079 –> 00:17:08,319
\nflesh in the morning.
\nBread and flesh in the evening. <\/p>\n

276
\n00:17:08,440 –> 00:17:12,480
\nThese are scavengers, whether
\nwhether it’s a Raven or another <\/p>\n

277
\n00:17:12,480 –> 00:17:15,560
\nkind of scavenging bird.
\nAccording to the original <\/p>\n

278
\n00:17:16,400 –> 00:17:19,880
\nnatural instincts would not
\nprovide a man with food at <\/p>\n

279
\n00:17:19,880 –> 00:17:22,640
\nregular intervals.
\nI mean, OK, let’s say it was <\/p>\n

280
\n00:17:22,640 –> 00:17:25,720
\nnormal for them to do that.
\nThey’re like he’s on time Again,<\/p>\n

281
\n00:17:26,960 –> 00:17:30,080
\nit’s unbelievable.
\nDo we believe that literally <\/p>\n

282
\n00:17:30,080 –> 00:17:31,800
\nhappened?
\nOf course we do. <\/p>\n

283
\n00:17:32,280 –> 00:17:34,760
\nBut it was meant to teach Elijah
\na lesson, and in particular <\/p>\n

284
\n00:17:34,760 –> 00:17:39,320
\nprepare him for the work of
\npreaching to a Gentile woman. <\/p>\n

285
\n00:17:39,320 –> 00:17:47,200
\nLater on Daniel chapter six.
\nMy God had sent his Angel and <\/p>\n

286
\n00:17:47,200 –> 00:17:50,080
\nhas shut the lion’s mouths that
\nthey have not hurt me. <\/p>\n

287
\n00:17:51,240 –> 00:17:53,680
\nNatural instincts would not
\nclose the mouths of hungry <\/p>\n

288
\n00:17:53,680 –> 00:17:56,720
\nlions.
\nThis is totally unnatural. <\/p>\n

289
\n00:17:58,000 –> 00:18:00,440
\nAnd then, of course, in verse
\n24, neither would natural <\/p>\n

290
\n00:18:00,440 –> 00:18:03,520
\ninstincts open the lion’s mouths
\nat the very moment the <\/p>\n

291
\n00:18:03,520 –> 00:18:07,760
\nadditional guests arrived in
\ntheir den, and they had the <\/p>\n

292
\n00:18:07,760 –> 00:18:10,920
\nmastery over them, as the King
\nJames says, right. <\/p>\n

293
\n00:18:11,000 –> 00:18:14,360
\nI mean, this is this stuff has
\nhappened before. <\/p>\n

294
\n00:18:16,040 –> 00:18:18,920
\nThings that are similar to it,
\nthat that kind of provide us a <\/p>\n

295
\n00:18:18,920 –> 00:18:23,760
\nglimpse of possibilities.
\nSizzle, right? <\/p>\n

296
\n00:18:24,400 –> 00:18:28,000
\nIt’s a big one.
\nFish. <\/p>\n

297
\n00:18:28,000 –> 00:18:30,960
\nA great fish swallowing a person
\nonly to release him safely on <\/p>\n

298
\n00:18:30,960 –> 00:18:36,800
\nland a few days later.
\nGod is at work here. <\/p>\n

299
\n00:18:38,240 –> 00:18:39,520
\nI want to go.
\nI want to go to one of my <\/p>\n

300
\n00:18:39,520 –> 00:18:41,880
\nfavorite ones here.
\nThis is absolutely one of my <\/p>\n

301
\n00:18:41,880 –> 00:18:46,040
\nfavorites.
\nWe’ll visit this context <\/p>\n

302
\n00:18:46,080 –> 00:18:48,040
\ntomorrow, God willing, in the
\nexhortation. <\/p>\n

303
\n00:18:50,720 –> 00:18:52,240
\nAgain, I’m not a farmer, you
\nknow that. <\/p>\n

304
\n00:18:52,240 –> 00:18:57,480
\nI don’t know a lot about
\nanimals, but it says in Luke <\/p>\n

305
\n00:18:57,480 –> 00:19:03,160
\nchapter 19, Jesus speaking to
\ntwo of his disciples, go ye into<\/p>\n

306
\n00:19:03,160 –> 00:19:05,080
\nthe village over against you.
\nIn the witch that you’re <\/p>\n

307
\n00:19:05,080 –> 00:19:10,240
\nentering, you shall find a cult
\ntide we’re on yet never man set <\/p>\n

308
\n00:19:13,200 –> 00:19:15,520
\nloose him and bring him.
\nHit her. <\/p>\n

309
\n00:19:17,320 –> 00:19:20,720
\nAnd they brought him to Jesus.
\nAnd they cast their garments <\/p>\n

310
\n00:19:20,720 –> 00:19:23,680
\nupon the colt, and they set
\nJesus thereon. <\/p>\n

311
\n00:19:24,880 –> 00:19:27,360
\nNever had anyone sit on this
\nanimal. <\/p>\n

312
\n00:19:27,360 –> 00:19:29,520
\nNow, I don’t know a lot about
\nthese things, but I’m pretty <\/p>\n

313
\n00:19:29,520 –> 00:19:36,280
\nsure any of us would try that.
\nYou would have a rodeo before <\/p>\n

314
\n00:19:36,280 –> 00:19:42,360
\nvery long, but the Lord has
\ndominion over this animal and <\/p>\n

315
\n00:19:42,360 –> 00:19:47,480
\nmajestically rides into the city
\nunder this, this crowd of <\/p>\n

316
\n00:19:47,480 –> 00:19:51,600
\nemotional people crying hosanna,
\nHosanna to the son of David. <\/p>\n

317
\n00:19:51,600 –> 00:19:55,800
\nCan you imagine?
\nAnd it’s a sign to the disciples<\/p>\n

318
\n00:19:56,560 –> 00:19:59,960
\nthat this animal’s never been
\nridden and he just majestically <\/p>\n

319
\n00:19:59,960 –> 00:20:04,520
\nmoves into the city.
\nAll these are little glimpses <\/p>\n

320
\n00:20:05,040 –> 00:20:07,800
\nof.
\nA transformation that is coming <\/p>\n

321
\n00:20:08,240 –> 00:20:12,200
\nin the future.
\nSo what’s the way that it will <\/p>\n

322
\n00:20:12,200 –> 00:20:13,760
\nbe?
\nBecause they’re actually a lot <\/p>\n

323
\n00:20:13,760 –> 00:20:19,000
\nof prophecies that describe this
\nkind of thing happening in the <\/p>\n

324
\n00:20:19,000 –> 00:20:23,520
\nKingdom and in particular in the
\nnation of Israel. <\/p>\n

325
\n00:20:25,520 –> 00:20:30,720
\nAnd it begins, I would suggest
\nto you, in Hosea chapter 2, In <\/p>\n

326
\n00:20:30,720 –> 00:20:37,600
\nHosea Chapter 2, verse 18, God
\nsays that in that day, and this <\/p>\n

327
\n00:20:37,600 –> 00:20:40,720
\nis this is now, Israel’s come to
\nthe end of their journey. <\/p>\n

328
\n00:20:40,720 –> 00:20:42,720
\nThis isn’t the future where
\nthey’re about to come into the <\/p>\n

329
\n00:20:42,720 –> 00:20:46,760
\nland wherever they’re coming
\nfrom Assyria or from Egypt, and <\/p>\n

330
\n00:20:46,760 –> 00:20:49,040
\nthey’re coming into the land at
\nthe same point. <\/p>\n

331
\n00:20:50,760 –> 00:20:54,960
\nAnd God says, I will make a
\ncovenant for them with the <\/p>\n

332
\n00:20:54,960 –> 00:21:01,160
\nbeasts of the field and with the
\nfowls of heaven and with the <\/p>\n

333
\n00:21:01,160 –> 00:21:05,800
\ncreeping things of the ground.
\nAnd I will break the bow and the<\/p>\n

334
\n00:21:05,800 –> 00:21:09,800
\nsword and the battle out of the
\nearth and will make them to lie <\/p>\n

335
\n00:21:09,800 –> 00:21:13,640
\ndown safely.
\nAnd we’ve got a blending here of<\/p>\n

336
\n00:21:13,640 –> 00:21:16,520
\nof allegorical and of literal
\nhere. <\/p>\n

337
\n00:21:18,640 –> 00:21:20,440
\nSo let’s just kind of unpack it
\na little bit. <\/p>\n

338
\n00:21:20,440 –> 00:21:22,160
\nAnd what we’re going to notice
\nis that you might not be <\/p>\n

339
\n00:21:22,160 –> 00:21:24,600
\nconvinced totally from this
\npassage in Hosea, but you’ll <\/p>\n

340
\n00:21:24,600 –> 00:21:28,720
\nsee, you’ll see the force of
\npassages that sit on top of each<\/p>\n

341
\n00:21:28,720 –> 00:21:30,840
\nother that will become more
\npowerful as we move along. <\/p>\n

342
\n00:21:30,840 –> 00:21:34,840
\nSo just go with it.
\nIn Hosea, chapter two, we have <\/p>\n

343
\n00:21:34,920 –> 00:21:38,880
\nthe beasts and the fowls of
\nheaven and the creeping things <\/p>\n

344
\n00:21:38,880 –> 00:21:42,280
\nof the ground that are no longer
\ngoing to desolate the people of <\/p>\n

345
\n00:21:42,280 –> 00:21:45,160
\nGod.
\nThat’s the inference here behind<\/p>\n

346
\n00:21:45,160 –> 00:21:50,320
\nthe covenant that would suggest.
\nBut in addition to that, I will <\/p>\n

347
\n00:21:50,320 –> 00:21:54,440
\nbreak the bow and the sword and
\nthe battle out of the earth, God<\/p>\n

348
\n00:21:54,440 –> 00:22:02,360
\nsays.
\nAnd that’s all done through a <\/p>\n

349
\n00:22:02,360 –> 00:22:12,280
\ncovenant with the animals.
\nFor Israel and you, what the <\/p>\n

350
\n00:22:12,280 –> 00:22:15,080
\nresult is from all of that, it’s
\nrest. <\/p>\n

351
\n00:22:18,520 –> 00:22:20,320
\nIt’s rest for the father’s
\nflock. <\/p>\n

352
\n00:22:21,680 –> 00:22:23,560
\nI will make them to lie down
\nsafely. <\/p>\n

353
\n00:22:23,560 –> 00:22:28,040
\nThat’s language that’s used of,
\nlike shepherds that are leading <\/p>\n

354
\n00:22:28,040 –> 00:22:29,560
\ntheir flocks and lead them to
\nsafety. <\/p>\n

355
\n00:22:29,600 –> 00:22:31,360
\nIt’s it’s the Psalm 23
\nreference. <\/p>\n

356
\n00:22:33,920 –> 00:22:38,720
\nHe maketh me lie down.
\nAnd there’s some other passages <\/p>\n

357
\n00:22:38,720 –> 00:22:42,440
\nthat I think maybe we’ll go to
\none of them. <\/p>\n

358
\n00:22:42,760 –> 00:22:45,760
\nIt’s in Ezekiel chapter 34.
\nThat’s a good one to go to. <\/p>\n

359
\n00:22:45,760 –> 00:22:49,760
\nNow, when you think about
\nEzekiel chapter 34, what’s the <\/p>\n

360
\n00:22:49,760 –> 00:22:51,920
\nword that jumps out into your
\nmind when you hear Ezekiel 34? <\/p>\n

361
\n00:22:51,920 –> 00:23:00,160
\nYou think about the chapter
\nbefore 35, yes, but it’s it’s <\/p>\n

362
\n00:23:00,200 –> 00:23:05,560
\nit’s the chapter about shepherds
\nand about a shepherd. <\/p>\n

363
\n00:23:06,880 –> 00:23:11,520
\nSo in Ezekiel chapter 34, we’ll
\nhave a look at verse 25 and <\/p>\n

364
\n00:23:11,520 –> 00:23:13,760
\nlisten to how similar this is
\nhere. <\/p>\n

365
\n00:23:13,760 –> 00:23:17,200
\nThere’s also a passage keeping
\ntrack in Leviticus 26 verses <\/p>\n

366
\n00:23:17,200 –> 00:23:18,760
\n6:00 and 9:00, but they just
\nwant to have a look at the <\/p>\n

367
\n00:23:18,760 –> 00:23:24,520
\nprophet here.
\nVerse 25 says, I will make with <\/p>\n

368
\n00:23:24,520 –> 00:23:30,320
\nthem so speaking about Israel a
\ncovenant of peace and will cause<\/p>\n

369
\n00:23:30,320 –> 00:23:35,560
\nthe evil beasts to cease out of
\nthe land, and they shall dwell <\/p>\n

370
\n00:23:35,560 –> 00:23:39,760
\nsafely in the wilderness and
\nsleep in the woods. <\/p>\n

371
\n00:23:39,760 –> 00:23:41,960
\nNow the wilderness isn’t like
\nthe wilderness coming up into <\/p>\n

372
\n00:23:41,960 –> 00:23:44,040
\nthe wilderness.
\nIt’s a particular area of the <\/p>\n

373
\n00:23:44,120 –> 00:23:47,080
\narea of the land of promise,
\nwhich itself will blossom. <\/p>\n

374
\n00:23:47,960 –> 00:23:51,080
\nBut if we keep reading down, it
\nsays in verse 28, listen to this<\/p>\n

375
\n00:23:51,680 –> 00:23:57,160
\nand they shall no more be a prey
\nto the heathen. <\/p>\n

376
\n00:23:58,760 –> 00:24:02,960
\nNeither shall the beast of the
\nland devour them, but they shall<\/p>\n

377
\n00:24:02,960 –> 00:24:07,320
\ndwell safely, and none shall
\nmake them afraid. <\/p>\n

378
\n00:24:09,520 –> 00:24:13,320
\nSo these are wild beasts.
\nBut it’s also talking about <\/p>\n

379
\n00:24:13,320 –> 00:24:16,800
\nlater in verse 28.
\nIt’s it’s the heathen, A prey to<\/p>\n

380
\n00:24:16,800 –> 00:24:18,560
\nthe heathen.
\nWe have like an allegorical <\/p>\n

381
\n00:24:18,560 –> 00:24:21,720
\nreason coming out here too.
\nThere’s a blending of that here <\/p>\n

382
\n00:24:21,720 –> 00:24:25,320
\nin Ezekiel chapter 34, I would
\nsuggest, just as there are there<\/p>\n

383
\n00:24:25,320 –> 00:24:29,520
\nis in Hosea 2 and as there is in
\nIsaiah Chapter 11. <\/p>\n

384
\n00:24:29,800 –> 00:24:32,640
\nAnd it’s all part of a pattern
\nbecause that’s how it was <\/p>\n

385
\n00:24:32,640 –> 00:24:35,680
\noriginally and God gives us
\nlittle glimpses of that <\/p>\n

386
\n00:24:35,680 –> 00:24:37,600
\nthroughout the Scriptures as
\nwe’ve just gone through. <\/p>\n

387
\n00:24:39,280 –> 00:24:42,680
\nSo what about what happens here
\nin the Holy Mountain? <\/p>\n

388
\n00:24:43,000 –> 00:24:45,600
\nSo open your Bibles to Isaiah
\nChapter 11, if you would. <\/p>\n

389
\n00:24:51,230 –> 00:24:54,190
\nWe’ll spend a little bit of time
\nhere and just highlight some <\/p>\n

390
\n00:24:56,430 –> 00:24:57,710
\nsome thoughts here.
\nThis is. <\/p>\n

391
\n00:25:00,720 –> 00:25:03,800
\nIt’s wonderful to see this
\nIsaiah Chapter 11 beginning at <\/p>\n

392
\n00:25:03,800 –> 00:25:09,480
\nverse six.
\nI’m going to emphasize a word <\/p>\n

393
\n00:25:09,480 –> 00:25:16,400
\nhere.
\nThe wolf also shall dwell with <\/p>\n

394
\n00:25:17,160 –> 00:25:24,560
\nthe lamb, and the leopard shall
\nlie down with the kid. <\/p>\n

395
\n00:25:27,360 –> 00:25:29,280
\nNow what?
\nIt doesn’t say. <\/p>\n

396
\n00:25:29,280 –> 00:25:33,360
\nIt doesn’t say that the lamb
\nwill lie down with the wolf. <\/p>\n

397
\n00:25:33,360 –> 00:25:35,240
\nThat kind of gives you the idea
\nthat the lamb is going to the <\/p>\n

398
\n00:25:35,240 –> 00:25:36,640
\nwolf.
\nIt doesn’t say that the goat is <\/p>\n

399
\n00:25:36,640 –> 00:25:38,160
\ngoing to go lay down with the
\nleopard. <\/p>\n

400
\n00:25:39,480 –> 00:25:42,080
\nIt’s the it’s the wolf coming
\nand dwelling with. <\/p>\n

401
\n00:25:44,200 –> 00:25:47,240
\nIt’s the leopard coming and
\ndwelling with and lying down <\/p>\n

402
\n00:25:51,000 –> 00:25:57,320
\nbecause the with of this
\nallegorical, of this literal <\/p>\n

403
\n00:25:57,320 –> 00:25:59,800
\nevent.
\nThis is the allegorical truth. <\/p>\n

404
\n00:26:03,720 –> 00:26:11,920
\nThey come to Israel.
\nIt’s the wild animals that come <\/p>\n

405
\n00:26:11,920 –> 00:26:16,440
\nto the domesticated ones, the
\nsheep and the kid, the <\/p>\n

406
\n00:26:16,440 –> 00:26:19,440
\ndomesticated animals.
\nIn scripture, especially in the <\/p>\n

407
\n00:26:19,440 –> 00:26:22,880
\nprophets, we’re talking about
\nIsrael, an animal that has been <\/p>\n

408
\n00:26:22,880 –> 00:26:28,280
\ntaught and and look at this,
\nthis is over here. <\/p>\n

409
\n00:26:28,280 –> 00:26:33,520
\nThe calf and the young lion and
\nthe fatling together their young<\/p>\n

410
\n00:26:33,520 –> 00:26:41,360
\nones shall lie down together so
\nthat together word we’re talking<\/p>\n

411
\n00:26:41,360 –> 00:26:44,720
\nJews and Gentiles here.
\nRemember, there were wild beasts<\/p>\n

412
\n00:26:44,720 –> 00:26:47,320
\nthat came up, the lions of
\nAssyria that did come up and <\/p>\n

413
\n00:26:47,320 –> 00:26:50,560
\nhurt and destroy in the past in
\nthe holy mountain of God. <\/p>\n

414
\n00:26:50,720 –> 00:26:52,600
\nBut it’s not going to be like
\nthat anymore. <\/p>\n

415
\n00:26:52,680 –> 00:26:57,280
\nIn the future, there’s going to
\nbe this literal event in the <\/p>\n

416
\n00:26:57,280 –> 00:27:00,120
\nmountains of Israel that people
\nwill be able to see, and it’s <\/p>\n

417
\n00:27:00,120 –> 00:27:04,320
\ngoing to be instructive to them,
\njust as the other glimpses of <\/p>\n

418
\n00:27:05,080 –> 00:27:08,400
\nfuture possibilities are
\ninstructive in particular <\/p>\n

419
\n00:27:08,400 –> 00:27:11,320
\nlessons.
\nBut this lesson has everything <\/p>\n

420
\n00:27:11,320 –> 00:27:15,800
\nto do with Jew and Gentile
\ntogether. <\/p>\n

421
\n00:27:15,800 –> 00:27:17,320
\nAnd you know what the other
\nwonderful thing is? <\/p>\n

422
\n00:27:17,360 –> 00:27:22,000
\nIf it’s true that we’re talking
\nabout Israel and the Gentiles <\/p>\n

423
\n00:27:22,000 –> 00:27:23,320
\nhere, you know what else it
\nsays? <\/p>\n

424
\n00:27:23,880 –> 00:27:29,600
\nIt says their young ones shall
\nlie down together. <\/p>\n

425
\n00:27:29,600 –> 00:27:33,240
\nYou know what that means?
\nThey’re not going to be brought <\/p>\n

426
\n00:27:33,240 –> 00:27:38,120
\nup, these gentile nations to
\nhate Israel anymore because <\/p>\n

427
\n00:27:38,120 –> 00:27:39,960
\ntheir young ones will be brought
\nup together. <\/p>\n

428
\n00:27:43,040 –> 00:27:44,800
\nThat’s the picture that we’re
\nbeing given here. <\/p>\n

429
\n00:27:44,800 –> 00:27:47,280
\nIt’s like another generation of
\nthese, these animals coming <\/p>\n

430
\n00:27:47,280 –> 00:27:55,880
\nalong together, Jew and gentile.
\nAnd it’s not a truce, it’s not <\/p>\n

431
\n00:27:55,960 –> 00:27:57,920
\nan Armistice, it’s not a
\nceasefire. <\/p>\n

432
\n00:27:57,920 –> 00:28:02,040
\nIt’s actual real peace.
\nIt’s a dwelling together. <\/p>\n

433
\n00:28:02,680 –> 00:28:06,280
\nIt’s a fellowship.
\nIt’s a lying down and safety. <\/p>\n

434
\n00:28:06,440 –> 00:28:15,480
\nIt’s it’s a being fed eating of
\nthe same food to sustain both <\/p>\n

435
\n00:28:15,600 –> 00:28:18,720
\nJew and Gentile.
\nThat’s a that’s an incredible <\/p>\n

436
\n00:28:18,720 –> 00:28:21,400
\npicture, isn’t it?
\nIt’s a prophet from 2600 years <\/p>\n

437
\n00:28:21,400 –> 00:28:22,560
\nago.
\nLook at the world today. <\/p>\n

438
\n00:28:23,760 –> 00:28:26,600
\nAnd these are the things that
\nare going to happen in the <\/p>\n

439
\n00:28:26,600 –> 00:28:29,040
\nfuture and God willing will see
\nthose things. <\/p>\n

440
\n00:28:29,800 –> 00:28:34,360
\nSo what?
\nWhat’s the lesson here in Isaiah<\/p>\n

441
\n00:28:34,360 –> 00:28:38,440
\nChapter 11 and verse nine?
\nIt says that they shall not hurt<\/p>\n

442
\n00:28:38,800 –> 00:28:44,560
\nnor destroy in all my holy
\nmountain, for the earth shall be<\/p>\n

443
\n00:28:44,560 –> 00:28:49,160
\nfull of the knowledge of the
\nLord as the waters cover the <\/p>\n

444
\n00:28:49,160 –> 00:28:53,320
\nsea.
\nNow, it might be kind of strange<\/p>\n

445
\n00:28:53,320 –> 00:28:56,640
\nto like, think about animals and
\ntheir instincts as having like, <\/p>\n

446
\n00:28:56,640 –> 00:28:58,240
\nbecause that’s what’s being
\ntalked about here. <\/p>\n

447
\n00:28:58,240 –> 00:29:00,800
\nAnimals with their instincts are
\ngoing to receive a different <\/p>\n

448
\n00:29:00,800 –> 00:29:06,160
\nkind of knowledge.
\nThey might say, OK, that’s <\/p>\n

449
\n00:29:06,160 –> 00:29:07,720
\nthat’s kind of weird.
\nAren’t we talking about people <\/p>\n

450
\n00:29:07,720 –> 00:29:09,040
\nhere?
\nOf course we’re talking about <\/p>\n

451
\n00:29:09,040 –> 00:29:12,240
\npeople here but can you think of
\nanywhere else in scripture where<\/p>\n

452
\n00:29:12,240 –> 00:29:15,760
\nit describes animals having
\nwisdom? <\/p>\n

453
\n00:29:17,120 –> 00:29:21,200
\nCan you You got you got your
\nProverbs 30. <\/p>\n

454
\n00:29:21,200 –> 00:29:26,040
\nCome on these animals that are
\nsmall and yet they are exceeding<\/p>\n

455
\n00:29:27,080 –> 00:29:29,640
\nwise and what’s what’s the
\nspirit talking about there? <\/p>\n

456
\n00:29:29,640 –> 00:29:31,880
\nGod’s talking about the
\ninstincts that the that were <\/p>\n

457
\n00:29:31,880 –> 00:29:34,160
\nbuilt into the the animals.
\nIt’s a kind of wisdom. <\/p>\n

458
\n00:29:34,560 –> 00:29:36,800
\nThose kinds of things are gonna
\nbe changed for the animals that <\/p>\n

459
\n00:29:36,800 –> 00:29:38,520
\nare there in the holy mountain,
\nin the Kingdom. <\/p>\n

460
\n00:29:38,680 –> 00:29:40,160
\nBut even that’s not the
\nfullness. <\/p>\n

461
\n00:29:40,160 –> 00:29:43,400
\nWe’re not just talking about new
\ninstincts for the animals, those<\/p>\n

462
\n00:29:43,400 –> 00:29:46,600
\nnew instincts for the animals,
\nwhich it’s a real thing. <\/p>\n

463
\n00:29:46,600 –> 00:29:50,080
\nIt’s a literal thing.
\nIt’s a parable. <\/p>\n

464
\n00:29:51,200 –> 00:29:54,640
\nIt’s an allegory.
\nBecause the nations are gonna be<\/p>\n

465
\n00:29:54,640 –> 00:30:02,840
\ntaught to change their behavior,
\nto glorify God, which will be <\/p>\n

466
\n00:30:02,840 –> 00:30:05,480
\nfilling the earth at that time.
\nIs that what we’re doing right <\/p>\n

467
\n00:30:05,480 –> 00:30:09,120
\nnow?
\nI mean, we’re we’ve got the <\/p>\n

468
\n00:30:09,120 –> 00:30:11,640
\nanimal nature in us.
\nThat’s what needs to be changed,<\/p>\n

469
\n00:30:11,640 –> 00:30:13,080
\nright?
\nOur actual natures. <\/p>\n

470
\n00:30:13,520 –> 00:30:17,280
\nAnd we’re we strive against
\nthose things, to crucify the <\/p>\n

471
\n00:30:17,280 –> 00:30:21,360
\nflesh with its affections and
\nlusts and live after the spirit <\/p>\n

472
\n00:30:21,360 –> 00:30:24,240
\nof Him who does, right?
\nFollowing in his footsteps. <\/p>\n

473
\n00:30:24,520 –> 00:30:26,360
\nAre they going to learn anything
\ndifferent in the Kingdom when <\/p>\n

474
\n00:30:26,360 –> 00:30:31,440
\nthe nations come up?
\nTheir journey was our journey at<\/p>\n

475
\n00:30:31,440 –> 00:30:35,320
\nthat time.
\nIt’s it’s a beautiful picture. <\/p>\n

476
\n00:30:36,080 –> 00:30:38,760
\nThere will be new instincts for
\nthe animals in the Holy Mountain<\/p>\n

477
\n00:30:39,080 –> 00:30:44,160
\nand there will be new
\ninstruction for the nations. <\/p>\n

478
\n00:30:44,400 –> 00:30:48,640
\nSo how do we, how do we kind of
\nwrap this up and and summarize <\/p>\n

479
\n00:30:48,640 –> 00:30:50,800
\nthis?
\nWell, this is the best I could <\/p>\n

480
\n00:30:50,800 –> 00:30:52,720
\ndo and I’ll just read this up
\nhere. <\/p>\n

481
\n00:30:53,960 –> 00:31:01,320
\nThe taming of the animals in the
\nHoly Mountain is a symbol of the<\/p>\n

482
\n00:31:01,320 –> 00:31:05,680
\ntaming of the nations that takes
\nplace there too. <\/p>\n

483
\n00:31:08,080 –> 00:31:10,560
\nWhere does all this happen in
\nthe Holy Mountain? <\/p>\n

484
\n00:31:11,760 –> 00:31:15,640
\nWhat does Isaiah teach us about
\nwhat they’re going to learn <\/p>\n

485
\n00:31:15,640 –> 00:31:20,280
\nabout in the Holy Mountain?
\nTurn to Isaiah Chapter 2. <\/p>\n

486
\n00:31:26,320 –> 00:31:27,520
\nYou ever wonder what they’re
\ngoing to like? <\/p>\n

487
\n00:31:27,520 –> 00:31:28,760
\nWhat?
\nWhat’s the take away? <\/p>\n

488
\n00:31:28,760 –> 00:31:30,360
\nAnd they’re going to learn many
\nthings. <\/p>\n

489
\n00:31:30,360 –> 00:31:32,520
\nBut how would you summarize
\nthat? <\/p>\n

490
\n00:31:32,520 –> 00:31:35,480
\nHow would Isaiah summarize what
\nit is that the nations are going<\/p>\n

491
\n00:31:35,480 –> 00:31:40,120
\nto be taught when they go up and
\nthey see these wonders in the <\/p>\n

492
\n00:31:40,120 –> 00:31:41,160
\nland?
\nChapter 2. <\/p>\n

493
\n00:31:41,160 –> 00:31:44,320
\nIt says, verse two, it shall
\ncome to pass in the last days, <\/p>\n

494
\n00:31:45,560 –> 00:31:50,320
\nthat the mountain of the Lord’s
\nhouse shall be established in <\/p>\n

495
\n00:31:50,320 –> 00:31:54,080
\nthe top of the mountains and
\nshall be exalted above the <\/p>\n

496
\n00:31:54,080 –> 00:31:56,360
\nhills, and all nations shall
\nflow into it. <\/p>\n

497
\n00:31:56,520 –> 00:32:01,520
\nAnd many, many people shall go
\nand say, come here, let us go up<\/p>\n

498
\n00:32:01,520 –> 00:32:05,480
\nto the mountain of the Lord, to
\nthe House of the God of Jacob. <\/p>\n

499
\n00:32:06,280 –> 00:32:13,520
\nAnd he will teach us of His
\nways, and we will walk in his <\/p>\n

500
\n00:32:13,520 –> 00:32:15,920
\npaths.
\nAnd guess what path it will take<\/p>\n

501
\n00:32:15,920 –> 00:32:21,560
\nto get up there?
\nWe’re going to take the way that<\/p>\n

502
\n00:32:21,560 –> 00:32:22,800
\nthe Jews already took up.
\nRight. <\/p>\n

503
\n00:32:23,080 –> 00:32:27,400
\nWe’ll walk in his paths.
\nWe’re out of Zion shall go forth<\/p>\n

504
\n00:32:27,400 –> 00:32:30,880
\nthe word of the shall go forth
\nthe law and the word of the Lord<\/p>\n

505
\n00:32:30,880 –> 00:32:34,760
\nfrom Jerusalem.
\nAnd specifically in verse four <\/p>\n

506
\n00:32:34,760 –> 00:32:38,880
\nit says that he shall judge
\namong the nations, and shall <\/p>\n

507
\n00:32:38,880 –> 00:32:46,440
\nrebuke many people, and they
\nshall beat their swords into <\/p>\n

508
\n00:32:46,440 –> 00:32:51,160
\nplowshares and their Spears into
\npruning hooks. <\/p>\n

509
\n00:32:51,720 –> 00:32:56,600
\nNation shall not lift up sword
\nagainst nation, neither shall <\/p>\n

510
\n00:32:56,600 –> 00:33:03,840
\nthey learn war anymore.
\nIn other words, the nations will<\/p>\n

511
\n00:33:03,840 –> 00:33:11,480
\nlearn when they come up, not to
\nhurt or destroy in all my holy <\/p>\n

512
\n00:33:11,480 –> 00:33:15,640
\nmount like you used to do, or
\nanywhere else in the earth. <\/p>\n

513
\n00:33:18,280 –> 00:33:24,160
\nIn other words, the animal
\nnations will be taint and they <\/p>\n

514
\n00:33:24,160 –> 00:33:25,880
\nwill see a picture.
\nCan you imagine going up there <\/p>\n

515
\n00:33:27,080 –> 00:33:30,200
\nas as we hope, we will be able
\nto see these things too. <\/p>\n

516
\n00:33:31,200 –> 00:33:36,760
\nAnd you see these animals
\nhanging out together, chilling <\/p>\n

517
\n00:33:36,760 –> 00:33:41,440
\nout together, eating stuff they
\ndon’t normally eat with animals <\/p>\n

518
\n00:33:41,440 –> 00:33:45,960
\nthat they would usually eat.
\nAnd these families from all <\/p>\n

519
\n00:33:45,960 –> 00:33:47,800
\nparts of the world that we’re
\nreading about here in Isaiah <\/p>\n

520
\n00:33:47,800 –> 00:33:51,680
\nChapter 2, look up and they say
\nwhat’s going on here and they <\/p>\n

521
\n00:33:51,680 –> 00:33:54,800
\nlearn about what it means.
\nDon’t hurt or destroy all the <\/p>\n

522
\n00:33:54,800 –> 00:33:56,840
\nHoly Mountain anymore, and don’t
\ndo it back home either. <\/p>\n

523
\n00:33:57,880 –> 00:34:00,800
\nAnd swords go into plowshares
\nand the fruitfulness of the <\/p>\n

524
\n00:34:00,800 –> 00:34:03,760
\nearth starts to pick up and it
\ngets bigger and bigger as <\/p>\n

525
\n00:34:03,760 –> 00:34:07,000
\nnations obey.
\nAnd there’s going to be, there <\/p>\n

526
\n00:34:07,000 –> 00:34:10,320
\nwill be those among the
\nredeemed. <\/p>\n

527
\n00:34:10,880 –> 00:34:13,679
\nWe hope to be one of them who
\nhelped to enact all of this <\/p>\n

528
\n00:34:13,679 –> 00:34:15,600
\nfruitfulness all throughout the
\nearth. <\/p>\n

529
\n00:34:15,600 –> 00:34:18,840
\nDuring this time, we’re going to
\nbe the doers of these wonderful <\/p>\n

530
\n00:34:18,840 –> 00:34:26,560
\nthings that we look forward to.
\nSo in the Holy Mountain, animals<\/p>\n

531
\n00:34:26,560 –> 00:34:29,920
\nthat were once carnivorous will
\nbe changed. <\/p>\n

532
\n00:34:31,760 –> 00:34:34,639
\nIt will be a literal wonder.
\nRemember, that’s how it was at <\/p>\n

533
\n00:34:34,639 –> 00:34:37,400
\nthe beginning.
\nAnd we get little glimpses of <\/p>\n

534
\n00:34:37,400 –> 00:34:40,520
\nthe glimpses of that as we move
\nthroughout the scriptures. <\/p>\n

535
\n00:34:40,800 –> 00:34:46,320
\nThe nations will ascend the Holy
\nMountain to learn about the <\/p>\n

536
\n00:34:46,320 –> 00:34:57,160
\ngospel, and that natural wonder
\nwill be a symbol of spiritual <\/p>\n

537
\n00:34:57,160 –> 00:34:59,160
\ntransformation.
\nThat will be the encouragement <\/p>\n

538
\n00:34:59,160 –> 00:35:01,520
\nfor them to do what they’re
\nsupposed to do. <\/p>\n

539
\n00:35:01,840 –> 00:35:04,800
\nAnd we look at that and we’re
\nlike, you know, we’re coming up <\/p>\n

540
\n00:35:04,800 –> 00:35:07,120
\nwith our, you know, put yourself
\nin the shoes of those families <\/p>\n

541
\n00:35:07,120 –> 00:35:08,840
\nthat will be going up, because
\nit won’t be us. <\/p>\n

542
\n00:35:09,680 –> 00:35:13,360
\nWe will be there in Zion
\nalready, ready to teach, ready <\/p>\n

543
\n00:35:13,360 –> 00:35:16,400
\nto instruct, ready to help pour
\nout the blessings upon the <\/p>\n

544
\n00:35:16,400 –> 00:35:19,720
\nobedient at that particular
\ntime, and to correct the wicked,<\/p>\n

545
\n00:35:20,640 –> 00:35:23,200
\nwhich will be part of it.
\nBut that is the picture that <\/p>\n

546
\n00:35:23,200 –> 00:35:26,400
\nwe’re being given there.
\nAnd what we have to do is we <\/p>\n

547
\n00:35:26,400 –> 00:35:31,320
\nhave to join together with
\nIsaiah the prophet, because we <\/p>\n

548
\n00:35:31,320 –> 00:35:34,600
\ndidn’t read all of that little
\nsection there, that opening <\/p>\n

549
\n00:35:34,600 –> 00:35:35,960
\nvision.
\nI want you to turn back, if <\/p>\n

550
\n00:35:35,960 –> 00:35:37,920
\nyou’re not there again to Isaiah
\nChapter 2. <\/p>\n

551
\n00:35:39,720 –> 00:35:42,120
\nYou know, we’re looking at all
\nof these things in the future. <\/p>\n

552
\n00:35:42,280 –> 00:35:46,120
\nAnd Isaiah is given in the
\nProvidence of God and through <\/p>\n

553
\n00:35:46,120 –> 00:35:51,200
\nthe blessing of God, these
\nincredible visions that were so <\/p>\n

554
\n00:35:51,200 –> 00:35:55,480
\nfar ahead of his time.
\nHe talks about Egypt and he <\/p>\n

555
\n00:35:55,480 –> 00:35:58,120
\ntalks about Assyria.
\nAnd they were nations who were <\/p>\n

556
\n00:35:58,120 –> 00:36:01,560
\nantagonistic to Israel at those
\nat that very time. <\/p>\n

557
\n00:36:02,320 –> 00:36:05,800
\nAnd he prophesized through the
\nthrough the spirit of God, those<\/p>\n

558
\n00:36:05,800 –> 00:36:07,520
\nnations are going to be
\nconverted at the end. <\/p>\n

559
\n00:36:08,000 –> 00:36:11,720
\nHe talks about all that in
\nIsaiah 19, and he sees this <\/p>\n

560
\n00:36:11,720 –> 00:36:17,920
\nvision of the future, and he
\nsees the people coming up, and <\/p>\n

561
\n00:36:17,920 –> 00:36:21,280
\nhe hears the conversations that
\nthey will speak, and he learns <\/p>\n

562
\n00:36:21,280 –> 00:36:23,880
\nabout the teaching that they
\nwill embrace at that particular <\/p>\n

563
\n00:36:23,880 –> 00:36:26,400
\ntime.
\nAnd he he, he comes out of the <\/p>\n

564
\n00:36:26,400 –> 00:36:28,840
\nvision, as it were, at the end
\nof verse four and at the <\/p>\n

565
\n00:36:28,840 –> 00:36:30,480
\nbeginning of verse 5.
\nAnd look what he says. <\/p>\n

566
\n00:36:31,520 –> 00:36:40,160
\nHe says, O House of Jacob, come
\nye and let us walk in the light <\/p>\n

567
\n00:36:40,160 –> 00:36:42,640
\nof the Lord.
\nAnd and that’s what we do. <\/p>\n

568
\n00:36:42,640 –> 00:36:45,080
\nWe come, we look at that vision.
\nWe’re like, wow. <\/p>\n

569
\n00:36:45,120 –> 00:36:47,840
\nAnd we we come away from that
\nand we look at each other. <\/p>\n

570
\n00:36:49,000 –> 00:36:51,160
\nAnd for Isaiah, he looked around
\nand it broke his heart. <\/p>\n

571
\n00:36:51,160 –> 00:36:56,400
\nThey didn’t want to hear it, but
\nwe want to hear it. <\/p>\n

572
\n00:36:57,600 –> 00:37:00,120
\nWe do want to hear it.
\nWe do want to be changed by it. <\/p>\n

573
\n00:37:02,240 –> 00:37:04,520
\nAnd we look at each other as
\npart of the Commonwealth of <\/p>\n

574
\n00:37:04,520 –> 00:37:08,240
\nIsrael, the household of faith.
\nAnd we say to each other, come <\/p>\n

575
\n00:37:08,240 –> 00:37:11,960
\non, let’s go now and walk in the
\nlight of the Lord. <\/p>\n

576
\n00:37:12,000 –> 00:37:18,840
\nNow do the things that we’re
\nsupposed to be doing, so that <\/p>\n

577
\n00:37:18,840 –> 00:37:21,560
\nwhen the Lord returns, we will
\nwalk in the light of the Lord <\/p>\n

578
\n00:37:23,920 –> 00:37:42,680
\nthat we haven’t yet experienced.
