\nThank you for joining us this

\nDaily News feed.

\nThen we record a short intro <\/p>\n

8
\n00:00:31,990 –> 00:00:35,750
\nbeforehand as a personalized
\nrecommendation to you on why we <\/p>\n

9
\n00:00:35,750 –> 00:00:38,840
\nare sharing the talk.
\nAnd now let’s talk more about <\/p>\n

10
\n00:00:38,840 –> 00:00:51,760
\nthis week’s talk.
\nHello and welcome back. <\/p>\n

11
\n00:00:51,880 –> 00:00:56,360
\nThis is brother Chris back to
\nshare with you another talk this<\/p>\n

12
\n00:00:56,360 –> 00:00:57,800
\nweek.
\nWe’re listening to a class that <\/p>\n

13
\n00:00:57,800 –> 00:01:03,480
\nwas given back in 2001 by
\nBrother Tim Badger at the <\/p>\n

14
\n00:01:03,480 –> 00:01:07,120
\nSuburban Young People’s Weekend
\nwhere he was looking at the <\/p>\n

15
\n00:01:07,120 –> 00:01:10,920
\nsubject along with some other
\nspeakers at the topic of Daniel.<\/p>\n

16
\n00:01:11,520 –> 00:01:17,320
\nAnd in this class he was looking
\nat some examples taken from <\/p>\n

17
\n00:01:17,320 –> 00:01:23,520
\nDaniel Chapter 9, specifically
\nlooking at Daniel and the 70 <\/p>\n

18
\n00:01:23,520 –> 00:01:28,360
\nweek prophecy that Daniel
\nreceives in Daniel Chapter 9. <\/p>\n

19
\n00:01:28,720 –> 00:01:32,280
\nAnd I found both the second-half
\nof the classes where he really <\/p>\n

20
\n00:01:32,280 –> 00:01:35,400
\ndives into the 70 week prophecy
\nand the detail and the little <\/p>\n

21
\n00:01:35,400 –> 00:01:37,960
\nnuances in it.
\nBrother Tim does a great job of <\/p>\n

22
\n00:01:37,960 –> 00:01:40,320
\nbringing all of that out and
\nreally digging into it. <\/p>\n

23
\n00:01:40,400 –> 00:01:43,400
\nIt was awesome and really
\nencouraging. <\/p>\n

24
\n00:01:43,400 –> 00:01:46,360
\nIt’s a topic that I know I’ve
\nlooked at before, but it’s <\/p>\n

25
\n00:01:46,360 –> 00:01:50,120
\nalways exciting to hear it
\nspelled out so eloquently as <\/p>\n

26
\n00:01:50,120 –> 00:01:52,840
\nbrother Tim does.
\nJust really makes it super <\/p>\n

27
\n00:01:52,920 –> 00:01:56,840
\nengaging and amazing to witness.
\nAnd just how it must have felt <\/p>\n

28
\n00:01:56,840 –> 00:01:59,960
\nto Daniel to get that 70 week
\nprophecy and then how it feels <\/p>\n

29
\n00:01:59,960 –> 00:02:03,280
\nto us to be able to look back
\nand see that prophecy having <\/p>\n

30
\n00:02:03,280 –> 00:02:07,800
\nbeen fulfilled over time.
\nHe also makes a really powerful <\/p>\n

31
\n00:02:07,800 –> 00:02:09,880
\npoint at the beginning of the
\nclass that I want you to pay <\/p>\n

32
\n00:02:09,880 –> 00:02:13,520
\nattention to, and that’s talking
\nabout making a confession like <\/p>\n

33
\n00:02:13,520 –> 00:02:19,080
\nDaniel and just talking about
\nhow powerful it is for someone <\/p>\n

34
\n00:02:19,080 –> 00:02:22,840
\nlike Daniel, who we look up to
\nas being one of these great men <\/p>\n

35
\n00:02:22,840 –> 00:02:26,680
\nof faith, how powerful his
\nconfession was to God. <\/p>\n

36
\n00:02:27,040 –> 00:02:29,120
\nAnd he has all sorts of really
\ncool Nuggets about how it ties <\/p>\n

37
\n00:02:29,120 –> 00:02:32,160
\nin what we’re reading about in
\nDaniel Chapter 9 and other parts<\/p>\n

38
\n00:02:32,160 –> 00:02:35,640
\nof the story of Daniel that I
\njust found to be super, super <\/p>\n

39
\n00:02:35,640 –> 00:02:38,160
\nencouraging.
\nThis was one that was made as a <\/p>\n

40
\n00:02:38,160 –> 00:02:40,360
\nrecommendation.
\nIt actually was recommended <\/p>\n

41
\n00:02:40,520 –> 00:02:43,240
\nseveral years ago, shortly after
\nit was given in 2021. <\/p>\n

42
\n00:02:43,240 –> 00:02:46,120
\nSo it’s taking us a little bit
\nto get to this one, and I’m <\/p>\n

43
\n00:02:46,120 –> 00:02:48,440
\nsorry it took us so long to get
\nto it because this is an awesome<\/p>\n

44
\n00:02:48,440 –> 00:02:51,400
\nclass.
\nI really, really enjoy it and I <\/p>\n

45
\n00:02:51,400 –> 00:02:54,640
\nhope that you find it to be
\nencouraging that you take some <\/p>\n

46
\n00:02:54,640 –> 00:02:58,600
\ncomfort and some encouragement
\nfrom the court of revealing that<\/p>\n

47
\n00:02:58,600 –> 00:03:00,760
\nbrother Tim does of the 70 week
\nprophecy. <\/p>\n

48
\n00:03:01,280 –> 00:03:03,760
\nAnd also just some really
\nactionable advice from looking <\/p>\n

49
\n00:03:03,760 –> 00:03:08,720
\nat Daniel as a practical
\napplication study that we can <\/p>\n

50
\n00:03:08,720 –> 00:03:12,200
\nuse in our walk.
\nSo I hope that this encourages <\/p>\n

51
\n00:03:12,200 –> 00:03:16,280
\nyou and that you find it to be
\nuplifting in your walk. <\/p>\n

52
\n00:03:16,800 –> 00:03:18,840
\nAnd with that, I’m going to turn
\nit over to our brother Tim <\/p>\n

53
\n00:03:18,840 –> 00:03:22,560
\nBadger for his class based on
\nDaniel Chapter 9 entitled We <\/p>\n

54
\n00:03:22,560 –> 00:03:24,360
\nHave Sinned.
\nWell, good evening. <\/p>\n

55
\n00:03:24,760 –> 00:03:28,080
\nIt’s exciting to be here.
\nThe excitement for me lies <\/p>\n

56
\n00:03:28,080 –> 00:03:31,280
\nobviously in the chapter that we
\nhave in front of us, Daniel <\/p>\n

57
\n00:03:31,280 –> 00:03:33,600
\nChapter 9.
\nAnd if I’m honest, I’ve never <\/p>\n

58
\n00:03:33,600 –> 00:03:37,920
\nreally spent a lot of time with
\nthis chapter until preparing for<\/p>\n

59
\n00:03:38,400 –> 00:03:41,480
\nyour theme on Daniel this year,
\nthe young people. <\/p>\n

60
\n00:03:41,480 –> 00:03:45,200
\nI believe that this has a
\nrelevant and a timely message <\/p>\n

61
\n00:03:45,200 –> 00:03:50,200
\nfor us living in, as I think
\nBrad explained, as we are in the<\/p>\n

62
\n00:03:50,200 –> 00:03:55,480
\nlast days we’ve had, it showed
\nto us already tonight that God <\/p>\n

63
\n00:03:55,480 –> 00:03:57,720
\nis in total.
\nControl. <\/p>\n

64
\n00:03:58,240 –> 00:04:04,760
\nOf every historical event, and
\nhe’s fulfilling his will and his<\/p>\n

65
\n00:04:04,760 –> 00:04:09,360
\npurpose in everything that his
\nplans have been made to do from <\/p>\n

66
\n00:04:09,360 –> 00:04:12,480
\nthe beginning of time.
\nAnd the message from Daniel <\/p>\n

67
\n00:04:12,480 –> 00:04:15,800
\nChapter 9 is no different.
\nAnd yet what this chapter does, <\/p>\n

68
\n00:04:15,800 –> 00:04:20,680
\nyoung people tonight is bring
\ninto sharp relief our need for <\/p>\n

69
\n00:04:20,680 –> 00:04:25,040
\nthe Lord Jesus Christ.
\nAnd we do that through a man who<\/p>\n

70
\n00:04:25,040 –> 00:04:28,160
\ndidn’t really see the clear
\npicture of Christ. <\/p>\n

71
\n00:04:28,440 –> 00:04:32,960
\nHe saw him in shadow.
\nHe saw a need in the future for <\/p>\n

72
\n00:04:32,960 –> 00:04:35,840
\nhis people.
\nBut in Daniel Chapter 9, <\/p>\n

73
\n00:04:36,200 –> 00:04:41,000
\nGabriel, who’s the very same
\nAngel that announces to Mary so <\/p>\n

74
\n00:04:41,000 –> 00:04:44,720
\nlong later that she’s going to
\ngive birth to the Messiah who <\/p>\n

75
\n00:04:44,720 –> 00:04:48,640
\nwill take care of the sins of
\nthe nation, it’s that same Angel<\/p>\n

76
\n00:04:49,080 –> 00:04:53,680
\nwho shows up and interrupts
\nDaniel’s prayer, a prayer that’s<\/p>\n

77
\n00:04:53,680 –> 00:04:57,880
\na total confession of sin,
\ntelling God he needs God’s <\/p>\n

78
\n00:04:57,880 –> 00:04:59,720
\nforgiveness.
\nThe people do. <\/p>\n

79
\n00:04:59,720 –> 00:05:03,040
\nThe land does, the sanctuary
\ndoes in Daniel Chapter 9. <\/p>\n

80
\n00:05:04,920 –> 00:05:07,480
\nSo what we want to do is just
\nlook at the two parts of this <\/p>\n

81
\n00:05:07,480 –> 00:05:10,840
\namazing chapter in what’s
\nrevealed to Daniel. <\/p>\n

82
\n00:05:11,840 –> 00:05:15,920
\nThe first part of the chapter is
\nobviously his prayer, and that <\/p>\n

83
\n00:05:15,920 –> 00:05:20,600
\nprayer gets interrupted,
\nobviously in verse 20. <\/p>\n

84
\n00:05:21,520 –> 00:05:24,600
\nSo there’s two parts to this
\nwhole story in Daniel Chapter 9,<\/p>\n

85
\n00:05:24,600 –> 00:05:27,560
\nand you cannot separate them.
\nThe first part is his prayer and<\/p>\n

86
\n00:05:27,560 –> 00:05:29,560
\nthen he’s interrupted verse 20.
\nLook what it says. <\/p>\n

87
\n00:05:30,000 –> 00:05:34,040
\nAnd I was always speaking.
\nPraying and confessing my sin <\/p>\n

88
\n00:05:36,840 –> 00:05:39,800
\nand the sins of my people,
\nIsrael, and presenting my <\/p>\n

89
\n00:05:39,800 –> 00:05:43,560
\nsupplication before Yahweh, my
\nGod, for the holy mountain of my<\/p>\n

90
\n00:05:43,560 –> 00:05:46,920
\nGod.
\nYes, and he kind of makes this <\/p>\n

91
\n00:05:46,920 –> 00:05:49,480
\nreally emphatic, right?
\nHe’s he’s telling this in <\/p>\n

92
\n00:05:49,480 –> 00:05:51,520
\nretrospect, the story that
\nhappened to him. <\/p>\n

93
\n00:05:51,520 –> 00:05:54,880
\nHe says, right when I was in the
\nmiddle of my prayer and pouring <\/p>\n

94
\n00:05:54,880 –> 00:05:57,920
\nat my heart and my supplication,
\nnot for me only, but for my <\/p>\n

95
\n00:05:57,920 –> 00:06:02,560
\npeople, yes, well, I was
\nspeaking in my prayer or in <\/p>\n

96
\n00:06:02,560 –> 00:06:05,360
\nprayer.
\nThe man Gabriel, who had seen, <\/p>\n

97
\n00:06:05,920 –> 00:06:08,920
\nwhom I had seen in the vision at
\nthe beginning being caused to <\/p>\n

98
\n00:06:08,920 –> 00:06:11,920
\nfly, swiftly reached me about
\nthe time of the evening <\/p>\n

99
\n00:06:11,920 –> 00:06:14,240
\noffering.
\nAnd what happens from this point<\/p>\n

100
\n00:06:14,240 –> 00:06:17,560
\nforward, young people, is the
\nanswer to Daniel’s prayer. <\/p>\n

101
\n00:06:18,040 –> 00:06:20,480
\nAnd you might think, well,
\nthat’s weird because Daniel’s <\/p>\n

102
\n00:06:20,480 –> 00:06:23,200
\npraying for forgiveness of the
\nsins of Israel and sins of the <\/p>\n

103
\n00:06:23,200 –> 00:06:27,080
\npeople and all of these kind of
\nhardships that they’ve been <\/p>\n

104
\n00:06:27,080 –> 00:06:28,680
\nthrough.
\nHe confesses that it’s because <\/p>\n

105
\n00:06:28,680 –> 00:06:31,280
\nof their sin.
\nAnd Gabriel comes and says to <\/p>\n

106
\n00:06:31,280 –> 00:06:33,120
\nDaniel, and this is the big
\npicture of the chapter. <\/p>\n

107
\n00:06:33,480 –> 00:06:38,480
\nDaniel, you have no idea what
\nyou’re asking for and how it <\/p>\n

108
\n00:06:38,480 –> 00:06:42,640
\nwill be fulfilled because what
\nDaniel is told in this chapter, <\/p>\n

109
\n00:06:42,640 –> 00:06:44,720
\nyoung people as we begin to pick
\nit apart and. <\/p>\n

110
\n00:06:44,720 –> 00:06:52,200
\nFeel the the the strength of the
\nmessage is this Daniel is told <\/p>\n

111
\n00:06:52,200 –> 00:06:56,160
\nthat the sins that he bears and
\nyou might think of Daniel as a <\/p>\n

112
\n00:06:56,440 –> 00:07:00,720
\nsort of a pretty godly man, but
\nhe confesses his own sins in <\/p>\n

113
\n00:07:00,720 –> 00:07:03,160
\nrelation and with the sins of
\nhis people. <\/p>\n

114
\n00:07:03,600 –> 00:07:07,840
\nDaniel’s told the answer to your
\nsins, Daniel and the sins of <\/p>\n

115
\n00:07:07,840 –> 00:07:17,040
\nIsrael is still 490 years away,
\nover 490 years away. <\/p>\n

116
\n00:07:17,560 –> 00:07:19,080
\nAnd that’s where the prophecy
\ncomes in. <\/p>\n

117
\n00:07:19,080 –> 00:07:22,920
\nWe call it in verse 24, the 70
\nweeks. <\/p>\n

118
\n00:07:23,240 –> 00:07:25,520
\nProphecy now that’s what we want
\nto do tonight. <\/p>\n

119
\n00:07:25,520 –> 00:07:28,680
\nWe want to look at how is prayer
\nis related to this prophecy <\/p>\n

120
\n00:07:28,680 –> 00:07:30,920
\nyoung people and it has all of
\nthe. <\/p>\n

121
\n00:07:30,920 –> 00:07:36,840
\nPower to convince us that the
\nBible is amazingly true, but it <\/p>\n

122
\n00:07:36,840 –> 00:07:40,000
\ngoes well beyond that.
\nAnd tonight we’re going to see <\/p>\n

123
\n00:07:40,000 –> 00:07:44,120
\nthat God is not only in control
\nof world events like you’ve seen<\/p>\n

124
\n00:07:44,120 –> 00:07:47,720
\nin the last study, He’s not only
\ncontrol of the things going on <\/p>\n

125
\n00:07:47,720 –> 00:07:50,800
\nin Afghanistan.
\nAs hard as that is for our <\/p>\n

126
\n00:07:50,800 –> 00:07:53,880
\nbrothers and sisters to grapple
\nwith at the moment there or who <\/p>\n

127
\n00:07:53,880 –> 00:07:58,840
\nhave fled there, not only is God
\ncontrol in control of Russia and<\/p>\n

128
\n00:07:58,880 –> 00:08:02,680
\nAmerica, not only is he in
\ncontrol of all the leaders of <\/p>\n

129
\n00:08:02,680 –> 00:08:06,440
\nthe world, the real message that
\ncomes out of here for Daniel and<\/p>\n

130
\n00:08:06,440 –> 00:08:11,240
\nfor you tonight is that he is in
\ncontrol of the sins that <\/p>\n

131
\n00:08:11,240 –> 00:08:16,040
\nsometimes overwhelm your life.
\nAnd that’s what Daniel’s going <\/p>\n

132
\n00:08:16,040 –> 00:08:19,400
\nto powerfully see.
\nAnd what I want you to do this <\/p>\n

133
\n00:08:19,400 –> 00:08:24,000
\nevening, young people, is to go
\nhome tonight not only thinking <\/p>\n

134
\n00:08:24,480 –> 00:08:28,880
\nabout fulfilled Bible prophecy
\nand prophecy sure to be <\/p>\n

135
\n00:08:28,880 –> 00:08:33,159
\nfulfilled shortly, but I want
\nyou to realize that God told <\/p>\n

136
\n00:08:33,159 –> 00:08:39,159
\nDaniel so long ago that your
\nsins are totally in God’s <\/p>\n

137
\n00:08:39,159 –> 00:08:44,080
\ncontrol.
\nLet’s see how that works out in <\/p>\n

138
\n00:08:44,080 –> 00:08:47,640
\nthe life of Daniel.
\nCome to Chapter 9, verse one. <\/p>\n

139
\n00:08:51,160 –> 00:08:54,680
\nI want to briefly tonight paint
\na picture of the attitude that <\/p>\n

140
\n00:08:54,680 –> 00:08:57,240
\nDaniel has in his prayer.
\nWe’re not going to go through it<\/p>\n

141
\n00:08:57,240 –> 00:09:00,000
\nverse by verse.
\nWe’re not going to dissect it, <\/p>\n

142
\n00:09:00,120 –> 00:09:02,760
\nbut I want to show you some
\nprinciples that come out of his.<\/p>\n

143
\n00:09:02,760 –> 00:09:06,920
\nPrayer and I want you to think
\nabout your own prayer and your <\/p>\n

144
\n00:09:06,920 –> 00:09:10,640
\nown sins and your attitude
\ntowards sin. <\/p>\n

145
\n00:09:11,960 –> 00:09:15,400
\nDaniel Chapter 9.
\nWe find this in the first year <\/p>\n

146
\n00:09:15,400 –> 00:09:18,280
\nof Darius, the son of the
\nHajwares of the lineage of the <\/p>\n

147
\n00:09:18,280 –> 00:09:21,680
\nMedes, who was made king of the
\nrealm of the Chaldeans in the <\/p>\n

148
\n00:09:21,680 –> 00:09:25,360
\nfirst year of his reign.
\nI Daniel understood by the books<\/p>\n

149
\n00:09:26,120 –> 00:09:30,400
\nthe number of the years
\nspecified by the word of the <\/p>\n

150
\n00:09:30,400 –> 00:09:34,240
\nLord through Jeremiah the
\nProphet that he would accomplish<\/p>\n

151
\n00:09:34,240 –> 00:09:38,600
\n70 years of in the desolations
\nof Jerusalem. <\/p>\n

152
\n00:09:39,320 –> 00:09:42,640
\nNow make sure you get the
\ncontext of Daniel Chapter 9. <\/p>\n

153
\n00:09:43,520 –> 00:09:50,520
\nDaniel is a Bible student and by
\nthat, as you will quickly see, <\/p>\n

154
\n00:09:51,120 –> 00:09:56,720
\nthat is not an academic term.
\nDaniel is a Bible student in the<\/p>\n

155
\n00:09:56,720 –> 00:10:01,960
\nsense of wanting to know what
\nGod says and what God wants of <\/p>\n

156
\n00:10:01,960 –> 00:10:06,240
\nhim and what God will do and to
\nalign his life with that. <\/p>\n

157
\n00:10:06,800 –> 00:10:10,160
\nDaniel was not studying the bit
\nthe dates of Bible prophecy <\/p>\n

158
\n00:10:10,360 –> 00:10:14,880
\nmerely for clever academic
\ninterest, is he the dates of <\/p>\n

159
\n00:10:14,880 –> 00:10:18,160
\nBible prophecy in the 70 years
\ndescribed by Jeremiah the <\/p>\n

160
\n00:10:18,160 –> 00:10:21,200
\nprophet and Daniel was going
\nback over those scrolls in the. <\/p>\n

161
\n00:10:21,200 –> 00:10:24,080
\nBooks looking and trying to
\nfigure out how it aligned and <\/p>\n

162
\n00:10:24,080 –> 00:10:29,360
\nwhere he sat and he suddenly
\nrealized and he knew that he was<\/p>\n

163
\n00:10:29,400 –> 00:10:33,160
\nright at the end of the 70 years
\ncaptivity that Jeremiah had <\/p>\n

164
\n00:10:33,160 –> 00:10:35,520
\nspoken about.
\nAnd the. 1st. <\/p>\n

165
\n00:10:35,520 –> 00:10:39,920
\nThing Jeremiah does?
\nSorry, the first thing Daniel <\/p>\n

166
\n00:10:39,920 –> 00:10:45,840
\ndoes after studying Bible
\nprophecy is he throws himself on<\/p>\n

167
\n00:10:45,840 –> 00:10:49,360
\nhis face.
\nAnd spreads his hands out to his<\/p>\n

168
\n00:10:49,360 –> 00:10:54,120
\nGod in prayer because of what
\nthe prophecy means for him and <\/p>\n

169
\n00:10:54,120 –> 00:10:57,040
\nhis people.
\nWhy you be impressed by that <\/p>\n

170
\n00:10:57,040 –> 00:11:00,400
\nyoung people that Daniel was a
\nserious Bible student? <\/p>\n

171
\n00:11:01,280 –> 00:11:03,760
\nIt’s true, isn’t it, when we
\nthink about it, and we’re doing <\/p>\n

172
\n00:11:03,760 –> 00:11:06,640
\nit through the course of Daniel,
\noff and on as the prophecies <\/p>\n

173
\n00:11:06,640 –> 00:11:09,720
\narise through the book.
\nIt’s true that a huge part of <\/p>\n

174
\n00:11:09,720 –> 00:11:11,280
\nthe Bible is made-up of
\nprophecy. <\/p>\n

175
\n00:11:11,640 –> 00:11:13,040
\nA.
\nMassive percentage of it. <\/p>\n

176
\n00:11:13,800 –> 00:11:16,200
\nAnd you sort of think, well,
\nthen there must be a sense in <\/p>\n

177
\n00:11:16,200 –> 00:11:19,560
\nwhich God is intending us to
\nread that prophecy. <\/p>\n

178
\n00:11:19,680 –> 00:11:23,240
\nHe’s preserved it for us and to
\nstudy it carefully. <\/p>\n

179
\n00:11:24,520 –> 00:11:27,800
\nBut the study has to bring us to
\nour knees. <\/p>\n

180
\n00:11:28,880 –> 00:11:33,400
\nIn realizing that God is in
\ncontrol, in realizing that God <\/p>\n

181
\n00:11:33,880 –> 00:11:38,440
\nhas got a purpose and a plan,
\nand in realizing that God wants <\/p>\n

182
\n00:11:38,440 –> 00:11:41,000
\nus part of that purpose.
\nAnd plan. <\/p>\n

183
\n00:11:41,000 –> 00:11:45,920
\nAnd that’s what happens when we
\nstudy the prophets, both Old and<\/p>\n

184
\n00:11:45,920 –> 00:11:48,360
\nin New Testament, especially the
\nBook of Revelation. <\/p>\n

185
\n00:11:48,640 –> 00:11:51,560
\nIt has the power to convict you
\nand me. <\/p>\n

186
\n00:11:52,800 –> 00:11:56,560
\nOf righteousness, of following
\nGod, of realizing that this <\/p>\n

187
\n00:11:56,560 –> 00:12:00,120
\nworld is passing by, it’s
\nnothing, and God’s got a total <\/p>\n

188
\n00:12:00,120 –> 00:12:03,320
\nplan according to Strict.
\nGuidelines and dates that he’s <\/p>\n

189
\n00:12:03,320 –> 00:12:07,560
\nset down, especially told to us
\nin the book of Daniel and the <\/p>\n

190
\n00:12:07,560 –> 00:12:10,320
\nBook of Revelation.
\nAnd it’s all happening. <\/p>\n

191
\n00:12:11,760 –> 00:12:16,240
\nAnd that brings us to our knees,
\nrealizing that we need God, and <\/p>\n

192
\n00:12:16,240 –> 00:12:20,400
\nHe’s the one that can also.
\nCan take control of our personal<\/p>\n

193
\n00:12:20,400 –> 00:12:23,680
\nlives and sins.
\nAnd so Daniel starts off as <\/p>\n

194
\n00:12:23,680 –> 00:12:25,800
\nprayer in verse four and it’s
\nbeautiful. <\/p>\n

195
\n00:12:26,040 –> 00:12:32,480
\nLook, look at this prayer and I
\nprayed to Yahweh my God. <\/p>\n

196
\n00:12:34,040 –> 00:12:37,520
\nAnd the first thing we know
\nabout this prayer is ultimately <\/p>\n

197
\n00:12:37,960 –> 00:12:42,360
\nthis is a prayer of confession.
\nAnd we want to talk about what <\/p>\n

198
\n00:12:42,360 –> 00:12:47,160
\nthat means for us in a moment,
\nbut just get a little bit of a <\/p>\n

199
\n00:12:47,160 –> 00:12:51,640
\ntaste of his reverence and
\nattitude towards God. <\/p>\n

200
\n00:12:54,280 –> 00:13:02,040
\nOh Lord, great and awesome God
\nwho keeps covenant and mercy <\/p>\n

201
\n00:13:02,640 –> 00:13:07,080
\nwith those who love him and with
\nthose who keep his commandments.<\/p>\n

202
\n00:13:08,200 –> 00:13:11,440
\nWe have sinned.
\nYou know, those words we won’t <\/p>\n

203
\n00:13:11,440 –> 00:13:14,280
\nunpack tonight are full of rich
\nmeaning of those who have gone <\/p>\n

204
\n00:13:14,280 –> 00:13:17,760
\nbefore.
\nMoses speaks of words like that <\/p>\n

205
\n00:13:18,240 –> 00:13:20,000
\nand Daniel’s drawing on those
\nwords. <\/p>\n

206
\n00:13:20,520 –> 00:13:23,920
\nSolomon in the dedication of the
\nTemple, significantly the <\/p>\n

207
\n00:13:23,920 –> 00:13:27,960
\ndedication of the temple in
\nFirst Kings 8 uses those words. <\/p>\n

208
\n00:13:28,440 –> 00:13:32,080
\nAnd here Daniel concerned about
\nthe destruction of the temple <\/p>\n

209
\n00:13:32,680 –> 00:13:35,320
\nand hopefully God’s soon renewal
\nof it as the 70. <\/p>\n

210
\n00:13:35,320 –> 00:13:38,560
\nYears come to a close, Harkins
\nback to all those faithful <\/p>\n

211
\n00:13:38,560 –> 00:13:42,400
\nprayers.
\nBut young people, just reflect <\/p>\n

212
\n00:13:42,680 –> 00:13:46,880
\ntonight on your own prayers as
\nyou love the example of Daniel, <\/p>\n

213
\n00:13:47,280 –> 00:13:50,120
\nas you love his passion and his
\nspirit. <\/p>\n

214
\n00:13:52,120 –> 00:13:55,880
\nI want you to love his prayer
\nand his attitude in prayer. <\/p>\n

215
\n00:13:57,400 –> 00:14:00,520
\nThis is a careful, sincere
\nprayer. <\/p>\n

216
\n00:14:01,560 –> 00:14:07,040
\nIt’s highly reverent of God, and
\nnot just in the wording, but the<\/p>\n

217
\n00:14:07,040 –> 00:14:09,520
\nactual feeling and sentiment
\nthat you can see here. <\/p>\n

218
\n00:14:09,520 –> 00:14:12,720
\nThat’s the key.
\nAnd he appeals to what God has <\/p>\n

219
\n00:14:12,720 –> 00:14:17,680
\npromised and said in the past.
\nThis is Daniel’s example and we <\/p>\n

220
\n00:14:17,680 –> 00:14:20,600
\nlove it.
\nYou know, as you go through this<\/p>\n

221
\n00:14:20,600 –> 00:14:23,800
\nprayer, it’s pointed out the
\nmost frequent thing that’s kind <\/p>\n

222
\n00:14:23,800 –> 00:14:27,520
\nof pointed out in this prayer is
\nthe word we in verse 5. <\/p>\n

223
\n00:14:27,840 –> 00:14:31,440
\nAnd of course, if you don’t have
\nthat highlighted or something to<\/p>\n

224
\n00:14:31,440 –> 00:14:34,600
\nmake it stand out, it’s crucial
\nto the sense of this entire <\/p>\n

225
\n00:14:34,600 –> 00:14:37,160
\nprayer.
\nAll the way through this prayer,<\/p>\n

226
\n00:14:37,800 –> 00:14:41,480
\nDaniel associates himself with
\nthe people, even though when we <\/p>\n

227
\n00:14:41,480 –> 00:14:45,360
\nlook at the life of Daniel,
\nthere’s nothing to think that he<\/p>\n

228
\n00:14:45,360 –> 00:14:46,800
\nshould be aligned with the
\npeople. <\/p>\n

229
\n00:14:47,200 –> 00:14:51,240
\nSo why is it we have sinned?
\nWhy is it my sins and the sins <\/p>\n

230
\n00:14:51,240 –> 00:14:54,120
\nof my people?
\nThis is Daniel the prophet, the <\/p>\n

231
\n00:14:54,120 –> 00:14:56,200
\nbeloved of God that we’re
\ntalking about. <\/p>\n

232
\n00:14:57,240 –> 00:15:00,080
\nAnd so here’s what we find,
\nyoung people, when we look at <\/p>\n

233
\n00:15:00,080 –> 00:15:03,600
\nthe spirit of Daniel, which we
\nlove and we want to follow. <\/p>\n

234
\n00:15:04,800 –> 00:15:10,160
\nIn Daniel’s prayer, he never,
\nalthough he could have, he never<\/p>\n

235
\n00:15:10,160 –> 00:15:18,200
\nblames others for his situation.
\nNowhere in this prayer does <\/p>\n

236
\n00:15:18,200 –> 00:15:23,600
\nDaniel condemn Israel and stand
\nback apart from them as if he’s <\/p>\n

237
\n00:15:23,760 –> 00:15:25,760
\nnot part of Israel.
\nHe. <\/p>\n

238
\n00:15:25,760 –> 00:15:28,400
\nNever makes himself better than
\nothers in this prayer. <\/p>\n

239
\n00:15:29,160 –> 00:15:33,000
\nThat’s not his attitude.
\nDo you know young people? <\/p>\n

240
\n00:15:34,400 –> 00:15:39,280
\nThat is a crucial attitude to
\nbring to suburban young peoples.<\/p>\n

241
\n00:15:40,360 –> 00:15:44,000
\nFundamental to all that we do
\nhere is the fact that we are <\/p>\n

242
\n00:15:44,000 –> 00:15:48,360
\nunited as young people, some
\nstruggling more than others, <\/p>\n

243
\n00:15:48,640 –> 00:15:51,680
\nabsolutely, some at different
\nstages in their life. <\/p>\n

244
\n00:15:51,880 –> 00:15:55,440
\nBeing able to provide leadership
\nand godly direction and others <\/p>\n

245
\n00:15:55,440 –> 00:15:58,360
\nwhich might be you at another
\nstage in your life needing to <\/p>\n

246
\n00:15:58,360 –> 00:16:02,040
\nfollow and to be inspired by and
\nstrengthened by those examples. <\/p>\n

247
\n00:16:02,600 –> 00:16:08,640
\nBut never, ever young people.
\nSee yourself as something apart <\/p>\n

248
\n00:16:09,720 –> 00:16:13,280
\nfrom the young people of the
\nBrotherhood, something different<\/p>\n

249
\n00:16:14,080 –> 00:16:19,840
\nfrom suburban, something
\nslightly apart, maybe slightly <\/p>\n

250
\n00:16:19,840 –> 00:16:21,960
\nbetter.
\nYou are. <\/p>\n

251
\n00:16:21,960 –> 00:16:24,440
\nAll part.
\nAnd so this is obviously a <\/p>\n

252
\n00:16:24,440 –> 00:16:25,920
\nlesson to the entire
\nbrotherhood, right? <\/p>\n

253
\n00:16:25,920 –> 00:16:28,840
\nBut we’re young people and we’re
\nspeaking in in young people’s <\/p>\n

254
\n00:16:29,080 –> 00:16:33,080
\nsort of context.
\nThis is true for me in ecclesial<\/p>\n

255
\n00:16:33,080 –> 00:16:35,720
\nlife.
\nIt’s true for our ecclesias here<\/p>\n

256
\n00:16:35,720 –> 00:16:40,920
\nin Adelaide.
\nIt’s a true statement, attitude <\/p>\n

257
\n00:16:41,520 –> 00:16:43,320
\nand feeling for the brotherhood
\nworldwide. <\/p>\n

258
\n00:16:43,840 –> 00:16:48,040
\nWe are in this together, we
\nsuffer together. <\/p>\n

259
\n00:16:49,480 –> 00:16:53,560
\nWhen part of the body suffers,
\nwe feel it and we want to help, <\/p>\n

260
\n00:16:53,760 –> 00:16:57,240
\nwe want to empathize, we want to
\ncare, we want to build up. <\/p>\n

261
\n00:16:57,480 –> 00:17:00,800
\nWe want to be a Daniel.
\nThat’s so important, young <\/p>\n

262
\n00:17:00,800 –> 00:17:03,200
\npeople.
\nAnd this is the spirit of the <\/p>\n

263
\n00:17:03,200 –> 00:17:06,640
\nman who God greatly loves.
\nGreatly. <\/p>\n

264
\n00:17:06,640 –> 00:17:08,800
\nLoves.
\nAnd the Angel came and just told<\/p>\n

265
\n00:17:08,800 –> 00:17:11,680
\nhim that point blank.
\nYou are greatly beloved, Daniel,<\/p>\n

266
\n00:17:11,960 –> 00:17:14,440
\nand it’s because of these
\nattitudes in this prayer. <\/p>\n

267
\n00:17:15,640 –> 00:17:20,000
\nDaniel never demands or expects
\nanything on the basis of who he <\/p>\n

268
\n00:17:20,000 –> 00:17:22,800
\nwas.
\nHe’s an ordained prophet. <\/p>\n

269
\n00:17:26,319 –> 00:17:30,280
\nOr so on the basis of who he was
\nin his personal situation in <\/p>\n

270
\n00:17:30,280 –> 00:17:31,200
\nBabylon.
\nHe is. <\/p>\n

271
\n00:17:31,360 –> 00:17:34,960
\nHe has a high status in Babylon.
\nHe could have easily snubbed <\/p>\n

272
\n00:17:35,000 –> 00:17:38,720
\nother Israelites from Babylon
\nfrom a distance, from his high <\/p>\n

273
\n00:17:38,720 –> 00:17:41,680
\nelevated position.
\nHe could have done that and he <\/p>\n

274
\n00:17:41,680 –> 00:17:44,200
\ndidn’t.
\nHe puts him right himself, right<\/p>\n

275
\n00:17:44,200 –> 00:17:47,680
\non the ground level with the
\nrest of the young people in his <\/p>\n

276
\n00:17:47,680 –> 00:17:53,600
\nCYC, and he’s there leading the
\nway by confessing. <\/p>\n

277
\n00:17:54,160 –> 00:17:57,120
\nAnd seeing the need for reform
\nwhere there was need. <\/p>\n

278
\n00:17:57,920 –> 00:18:02,320
\nYou see, in this prayer, young
\npeople, Daniel is acutely aware <\/p>\n

279
\n00:18:02,320 –> 00:18:08,440
\nof sin.
\nNot the sins of others, the sins<\/p>\n

280
\n00:18:08,440 –> 00:18:12,360
\ncollectively.
\nAnd he hates sin. <\/p>\n

281
\n00:18:15,360 –> 00:18:19,920
\nBut all the way through this
\nprayer, you’ll find he is <\/p>\n

282
\n00:18:20,000 –> 00:18:27,000
\nacutely aware of God’s mercy.
\nGod is the one you come to <\/p>\n

283
\n00:18:27,640 –> 00:18:31,280
\nthrough confession, through
\nacknowledging that he is <\/p>\n

284
\n00:18:31,280 –> 00:18:34,880
\nrighteous and right in
\neverything he does. <\/p>\n

285
\n00:18:35,800 –> 00:18:39,760
\nHe’s the one you come to to
\nappeal for mercy and forgiveness<\/p>\n

286
\n00:18:40,200 –> 00:18:44,120
\nand help.
\nThis is the beautiful <\/p>\n

287
\n00:18:44,120 –> 00:18:46,600
\nwillingness of Daniel to share
\nin the failings and the <\/p>\n

288
\n00:18:46,600 –> 00:18:50,960
\nsufferings of others and not to
\nstand apart as better, different<\/p>\n

289
\n00:18:51,280 –> 00:18:55,000
\nor in a in another circumstance.
\nYou know, this is interesting <\/p>\n

290
\n00:18:55,200 –> 00:18:58,280
\nyoung people as you go through
\nthere’s there’s all these words <\/p>\n

291
\n00:18:58,280 –> 00:19:00,840
\nfor sin through this prayer.
\nIt’s a pretty heavy going prayer<\/p>\n

292
\n00:19:00,840 –> 00:19:04,960
\nright as you as you read through
\nas you go. <\/p>\n

293
\n00:19:04,960 –> 00:19:09,240
\nLet let’s have a look at verse
\n70. <\/p>\n

294
\n00:19:09,240 –> 00:19:10,960
\nLord righteousness.
\nBelongs to you. <\/p>\n

295
\n00:19:10,960 –> 00:19:14,800
\nHe’s constantly elevating God to
\nHis holy and righteous position <\/p>\n

296
\n00:19:16,280 –> 00:19:19,640
\nbecause when we respect that,
\nwhen Daniel knows and <\/p>\n

297
\n00:19:19,640 –> 00:19:22,920
\nunderstands and feels the
\nrighteousness of God, he’s in a <\/p>\n

298
\n00:19:22,920 –> 00:19:26,040
\nright place to understand the
\ngravity of sin. <\/p>\n

299
\n00:19:26,040 –> 00:19:30,160
\nAnd that’s what we need to
\nrespect God, to Revere him and <\/p>\n

300
\n00:19:30,160 –> 00:19:35,520
\nto see he’s holy and righteous,
\nhelps us to highlight the <\/p>\n

301
\n00:19:35,520 –> 00:19:38,760
\ngravity of sin in our own lives.
\nAnd that’s not a negative thing,<\/p>\n

302
\n00:19:38,760 –> 00:19:40,480
\nYoung.
\nPeople hold that hold that <\/p>\n

303
\n00:19:40,480 –> 00:19:42,960
\nthought.
\nWhere that leads is crucially <\/p>\n

304
\n00:19:42,960 –> 00:19:45,720
\nimportant.
\nOh Lord, righteousness belongs <\/p>\n

305
\n00:19:45,720 –> 00:19:51,200
\nto you, but to us.
\nShame, facedness, as it is this <\/p>\n

306
\n00:19:51,200 –> 00:19:53,880
\nday to the men of Judah and
\ninhabitants of Jerusalem, all <\/p>\n

307
\n00:19:53,880 –> 00:19:58,400
\nIsrael, those near and those
\nthose near and those far off in <\/p>\n

308
\n00:19:58,400 –> 00:20:00,560
\nthe countries to which you have
\ndriven them, because of the <\/p>\n

309
\n00:20:00,600 –> 00:20:03,120
\nunfaithfulness which which they
\nhave committed. <\/p>\n

310
\n00:20:03,120 –> 00:20:07,760
\nAgainst you unfaithfulness.
\nHe talks about shame, he talks <\/p>\n

311
\n00:20:07,760 –> 00:20:12,200
\nabout rebellion in this prayer.
\nHe talks about transgression, <\/p>\n

312
\n00:20:12,320 –> 00:20:15,360
\niniquity and sin.
\nAll these are heavy words. <\/p>\n

313
\n00:20:15,360 –> 00:20:17,160
\nYou sort of think, well, where
\nis this going? <\/p>\n

314
\n00:20:17,160 –> 00:20:18,920
\nHow do how do we get out of
\nthis? <\/p>\n

315
\n00:20:19,760 –> 00:20:21,560
\nBut here’s an important
\nprinciple, young people of <\/p>\n

316
\n00:20:21,560 –> 00:20:24,400
\nDaniel’s prayer that has spoken
\nto me a lot. <\/p>\n

317
\n00:20:25,400 –> 00:20:31,160
\nAnd that is this a crucial
\naspect of being a young. <\/p>\n

318
\n00:20:31,160 –> 00:20:36,720
\nPerson, and a disciple for that
\nmatter, is having an acute <\/p>\n

319
\n00:20:37,520 –> 00:20:42,960
\nawareness of sin.
\nAnd you might think, well that’s<\/p>\n

320
\n00:20:42,960 –> 00:20:44,640
\na that’s a negative thing to
\ndwell on. <\/p>\n

321
\n00:20:45,440 –> 00:20:49,400
\nAnd yet young people we find in
\nScripture, it’s not those <\/p>\n

322
\n00:20:49,720 –> 00:20:58,920
\nfaithful who are acutely aware
\nof their own personal sins are <\/p>\n

323
\n00:20:58,920 –> 00:21:04,080
\nthose who are most acutely aware
\nof the greatness and the <\/p>\n

324
\n00:21:04,080 –> 00:21:09,200
\nprofound depth of God’s mercy.
\nAnd this is who you find in <\/p>\n

325
\n00:21:09,200 –> 00:21:12,600
\nDaniel Chapter 9, the example of
\nDaniel himself. <\/p>\n

326
\n00:21:14,200 –> 00:21:16,480
\nDo you know, I think it’s, it’s
\nworth thinking about just for a <\/p>\n

327
\n00:21:16,480 –> 00:21:17,880
\nlittle bit.
\nAnd there’s a there’s some <\/p>\n

328
\n00:21:17,880 –> 00:21:20,640
\ninteresting things when we look
\nat the world around us when it <\/p>\n

329
\n00:21:20,640 –> 00:21:23,680
\ncomes to sin.
\nThe interesting thing is there’s<\/p>\n

330
\n00:21:23,680 –> 00:21:26,760
\na.
\nBook this idea of being aware, <\/p>\n

331
\n00:21:26,760 –> 00:21:29,080
\nour consciousness, our
\nconsciousness of sin. <\/p>\n

332
\n00:21:29,520 –> 00:21:35,520
\nIn 1973, a book was written by a
\npsychiatrist called Karl <\/p>\n

333
\n00:21:35,520 –> 00:21:38,840
\nMenninger, and the title of the
\nbook is Whatever Became of Sin. <\/p>\n

334
\n00:21:39,240 –> 00:21:41,280
\nAnd he says in that book, he’s
\nback in the 70s. <\/p>\n

335
\n00:21:41,280 –> 00:21:43,840
\nLet’s just think about this and
\nthink about the context of the <\/p>\n

336
\n00:21:43,840 –> 00:21:47,720
\nworld we live in.
\nThink about Daniel, how <\/p>\n

337
\n00:21:47,720 –> 00:21:50,040
\ndifferent he is from this.
\nHe says in the book the very <\/p>\n

338
\n00:21:50,040 –> 00:21:54,160
\nword sin, which seems to have
\ndisappeared, was once a proud <\/p>\n

339
\n00:21:54,160 –> 00:21:56,800
\nword.
\nIt was once a strong word, an <\/p>\n

340
\n00:21:56,800 –> 00:21:59,840
\nominous and serious word, but
\nthe word went away. <\/p>\n

341
\n00:21:59,880 –> 00:22:03,640
\nHe says it’s almost disappeared,
\nthe word along with the notion, <\/p>\n

342
\n00:22:03,640 –> 00:22:08,040
\nwhy don’t people sin anymore?
\nDoesn’t anyone believe in sin? <\/p>\n

343
\n00:22:08,160 –> 00:22:09,960
\nAnd you think, well, what is
\nthat talking about? <\/p>\n

344
\n00:22:09,960 –> 00:22:13,720
\nBut what’s super interesting
\nyoung people, there’s this thing<\/p>\n

345
\n00:22:13,720 –> 00:22:17,080
\nin the United States which is
\nreally, in a sense, really <\/p>\n

346
\n00:22:17,080 –> 00:22:18,880
\ninteresting to compare to Daniel
\nChapter 9. <\/p>\n

347
\n00:22:19,040 –> 00:22:20,960
\nThere’s this thing in the United
\nStates that’s run by the <\/p>\n

348
\n00:22:20,960 –> 00:22:23,680
\nAmerican presidents called the
\nNational Day of Prayer. <\/p>\n

349
\n00:22:24,440 –> 00:22:27,800
\nDonald Trump’s done it, Obama’s
\ndone it, and almost all of the <\/p>\n

350
\n00:22:27,880 –> 00:22:30,440
\nUS presidents have done it,
\nwhere they get all of America, <\/p>\n

351
\n00:22:30,440 –> 00:22:32,360
\nwhich is pretty substantial when
\nyou think about it. <\/p>\n

352
\n00:22:32,680 –> 00:22:36,160
\nAnd they get, they call
\nofficially the whole nation, the<\/p>\n

353
\n00:22:36,160 –> 00:22:40,920
\nwhole nation to a day of prayer.
\nThis first happened during the <\/p>\n

354
\n00:22:40,920 –> 00:22:45,920
\nCivil War, and the Senate of the
\nUnited States asked Abraham <\/p>\n

355
\n00:22:45,920 –> 00:22:48,120
\nLincoln to call for a day of
\nprayer. <\/p>\n

356
\n00:22:48,480 –> 00:22:51,520
\nNow you just listen to the
\nlanguage of the Senate during <\/p>\n

357
\n00:22:51,520 –> 00:22:54,600
\nthe Civil War in America.
\nThis is what they wrote to <\/p>\n

358
\n00:22:54,880 –> 00:22:59,080
\nAbraham Lincoln.
\nThink of the difference today. <\/p>\n

359
\n00:23:00,400 –> 00:23:02,320
\nThis is what they wrote.
\nWhereas the Senate of the United<\/p>\n

360
\n00:23:02,320 –> 00:23:05,480
\nStates, devoutly recognizing the
\nsupreme authority and just <\/p>\n

361
\n00:23:05,480 –> 00:23:09,280
\ngovernment of Almighty God in
\nall the affairs of men and of <\/p>\n

362
\n00:23:09,280 –> 00:23:12,840
\nnations, has by a resolution
\nrequested the president to <\/p>\n

363
\n00:23:12,840 –> 00:23:15,240
\ndesignate and set apart a day
\nfor national prayer and <\/p>\n

364
\n00:23:15,240 –> 00:23:19,640
\nhumiliation in America.
\nLook at what the Senate says. <\/p>\n

365
\n00:23:20,360 –> 00:23:24,520
\nAnd whereas is the duty of
\nnations as well as men to own <\/p>\n

366
\n00:23:24,520 –> 00:23:27,200
\ntheir dependence upon the over
\nruling power of God? <\/p>\n

367
\n00:23:27,440 –> 00:23:31,880
\nTo confess their sins and
\ntransgressions in humble sorrow,<\/p>\n

368
\n00:23:32,440 –> 00:23:35,520
\nyet with assured hope that
\ngenuine repentance will lead to <\/p>\n

369
\n00:23:35,520 –> 00:23:38,280
\nmercy and pardon?
\nAnd to recognize the sublime <\/p>\n

370
\n00:23:38,280 –> 00:23:41,040
\ntruth announced in the Holy
\nScriptures and proven by all <\/p>\n

371
\n00:23:41,040 –> 00:23:44,280
\nhistory, that those nations only
\nare blessed whose God is the <\/p>\n

372
\n00:23:44,280 –> 00:23:46,760
\nLord.
\nSo at the end of this petition <\/p>\n

373
\n00:23:46,760 –> 00:23:50,880
\nto Abraham Lincoln, the Senate
\nof America says it behoves us <\/p>\n

374
\n00:23:50,880 –> 00:23:55,960
\nthen to humble ourselves before
\nthe offended power God, to <\/p>\n

375
\n00:23:55,960 –> 00:23:59,760
\nconfess our national sins and to
\npray for clemency and for <\/p>\n

376
\n00:23:59,760 –> 00:24:01,960
\nforgiveness.
\nYou know it’s. <\/p>\n

377
\n00:24:01,960 –> 00:24:08,680
\nReally interesting young people.
\nThe last time the word sin was <\/p>\n

378
\n00:24:08,680 –> 00:24:13,720
\nused in America’s National Day
\nof Prayer was President <\/p>\n

379
\n00:24:13,720 –> 00:24:18,400
\nEisenhower in 1953.
\nThings have cooled off a little <\/p>\n

380
\n00:24:18,400 –> 00:24:23,480
\nbit with sin, or America’s Got a
\nlittle bit sinless since Abraham<\/p>\n

381
\n00:24:23,480 –> 00:24:27,120
\nLincoln’s Day and their humble
\nplea for pardon. <\/p>\n

382
\n00:24:27,120 –> 00:24:31,280
\nAs a nation, it’s a pretty
\namazing thing. <\/p>\n

383
\n00:24:31,280 –> 00:24:34,280
\nBarack Obama never mentioned it.
\nHe he refers to the fact that <\/p>\n

384
\n00:24:34,280 –> 00:24:36,800
\nthe others prayed for sin.
\nBut Barack Obama and his <\/p>\n

385
\n00:24:36,800 –> 00:24:39,360
\nNational Days of Prayer never
\nactually prayed for sin. <\/p>\n

386
\n00:24:39,640 –> 00:24:42,840
\nAnd you can guess that Donald
\nTrump didn’t either. <\/p>\n

387
\n00:24:42,880 –> 00:24:47,400
\nAlthough Donald Trump writes
\nsome pretty amazing prayers, but<\/p>\n

388
\n00:24:47,400 –> 00:24:50,560
\nit’s always God be with us
\nthrough COVID or whatever he <\/p>\n

389
\n00:24:50,560 –> 00:24:52,600
\nwrote.
\nAnd God be with the American <\/p>\n

390
\n00:24:52,600 –> 00:24:55,760
\nmilitary forces.
\nNever does he confess the sins <\/p>\n

391
\n00:24:55,760 –> 00:24:59,320
\nof American people.
\nNow, what’s with that, young <\/p>\n

392
\n00:24:59,320 –> 00:25:03,080
\npeople?
\nThis is the sense society, the <\/p>\n

393
\n00:25:03,080 –> 00:25:06,600
\nworld around us can lose a sense
\nof sin. <\/p>\n

394
\n00:25:07,160 –> 00:25:09,280
\nBut when you lose a sense of
\nsin. <\/p>\n

395
\n00:25:10,200 –> 00:25:12,960
\nYou gain a great sense of
\nimmorality. <\/p>\n

396
\n00:25:13,520 –> 00:25:17,240
\nYou lose your orientation and
\nreckoning with God and your <\/p>\n

397
\n00:25:17,240 –> 00:25:20,080
\nMaker that the sentiments of the
\nAmerican Senate. <\/p>\n

398
\n00:25:20,800 –> 00:25:23,400
\nDuring the Civil War are far
\ngone. <\/p>\n

399
\n00:25:24,520 –> 00:25:29,560
\nThey revered the God of Jacob
\nand they honored the Holy One. <\/p>\n

400
\n00:25:30,440 –> 00:25:33,080
\nThat’s how they referred to him.
\nAnd yet that’s all gone, young <\/p>\n

401
\n00:25:33,080 –> 00:25:35,320
\npeople.
\nAnd you know, it’s interesting <\/p>\n

402
\n00:25:35,320 –> 00:25:38,360
\nthat in religion itself, people
\nhave noted the same thing in <\/p>\n

403
\n00:25:38,360 –> 00:25:41,160
\nProtestant churches.
\nI just want you to think about <\/p>\n

404
\n00:25:41,160 –> 00:25:44,120
\nthis in relation to Daniel CS
\nLewis wrote. <\/p>\n

405
\n00:25:44,400 –> 00:25:47,880
\nThe barrier I’ve met in his
\npreaching and evangelizing as a <\/p>\n

406
\n00:25:48,400 –> 00:25:52,160
\nas a even as a preacher, the
\nbarrier I’ve met is that almost <\/p>\n

407
\n00:25:52,400 –> 00:25:55,920
\nthe total absent from the minds
\nof my audience of any sense of <\/p>\n

408
\n00:25:55,920 –> 00:25:59,120
\nsin.
\nInterestingly, a lady wrote a <\/p>\n

409
\n00:25:59,120 –> 00:26:02,880
\nbook in 1995 when she analyzed a
\nwhole bunch of Protestant <\/p>\n

410
\n00:26:02,880 –> 00:26:06,680
\nsermons on the parable of the
\nprodigal son, and she says we <\/p>\n

411
\n00:26:06,680 –> 00:26:09,120
\nshould not be surprised to find
\nthat communicating notions of <\/p>\n

412
\n00:26:09,120 –> 00:26:12,600
\nsin poses difficulties for many
\nof the pastors. <\/p>\n

413
\n00:26:13,120 –> 00:26:15,600
\nAs we’ve seen here, A closer
\nexamination of the sermons <\/p>\n

414
\n00:26:15,600 –> 00:26:19,240
\nsuggest the many ways which the
\nconcept of sin has been <\/p>\n

415
\n00:26:19,240 –> 00:26:21,560
\naccommodated to fit secular
\nsensibilities. <\/p>\n

416
\n00:26:21,840 –> 00:26:25,520
\nIn other words, this young
\npeople, the concept of sin has <\/p>\n

417
\n00:26:25,520 –> 00:26:30,120
\nbeen eroded and almost lost in
\nsociety, and it’s happening in <\/p>\n

418
\n00:26:30,120 –> 00:26:32,800
\nthe churches too.
\nAnd yet when you come back to <\/p>\n

419
\n00:26:32,800 –> 00:26:36,520
\nDaniel Chapter 9, it is the
\nmajor focus of his prayer. <\/p>\n

420
\n00:26:37,440 –> 00:26:41,760
\nWhy is that powerful?
\nWell, young people, if we begin <\/p>\n

421
\n00:26:41,760 –> 00:26:47,400
\nto minimize sin or push it
\naside, our awareness of it in <\/p>\n

422
\n00:26:47,400 –> 00:26:52,000
\nour hatred of it in our life,
\nthen we soon become far from <\/p>\n

423
\n00:26:52,000 –> 00:26:55,440
\nGod.
\nSo the reason why God that <\/p>\n

424
\n00:26:55,440 –> 00:26:58,320
\nDaniel is so greatly beloved
\nyoung people is because he was <\/p>\n

425
\n00:26:58,320 –> 00:27:01,680
\nso aware of his sin and he
\ndumped it before God. <\/p>\n

426
\n00:27:03,080 –> 00:27:06,800
\nSometimes it’s easy if you’re
\nlike me, to minimize sin in your<\/p>\n

427
\n00:27:06,800 –> 00:27:09,000
\nlife.
\nDaniel did not. <\/p>\n

428
\n00:27:09,360 –> 00:27:13,480
\nHe laid it flat out before God.
\nSometimes, if you’re like me, <\/p>\n

429
\n00:27:13,480 –> 00:27:17,480
\nit’s easy to just not think or
\nor mention. <\/p>\n

430
\n00:27:17,560 –> 00:27:20,000
\nOur sins.
\nYou know what it’s like if <\/p>\n

431
\n00:27:20,000 –> 00:27:23,440
\nyou’ve committed a sin.
\nAnd you feel bad about it, but <\/p>\n

432
\n00:27:23,440 –> 00:27:25,560
\nyou never really get around to
\npraying for it. <\/p>\n

433
\n00:27:25,840 –> 00:27:29,800
\nAnd eventually the shock or the
\ndisappointment with yourself <\/p>\n

434
\n00:27:29,800 –> 00:27:32,400
\nwears off.
\nAnd in the end you move on and, <\/p>\n

435
\n00:27:32,400 –> 00:27:33,920
\nand maybe fall into that trap
\nagain. <\/p>\n

436
\n00:27:34,400 –> 00:27:38,320
\nAnd what can happen is that sins
\nnever really fully brought to <\/p>\n

437
\n00:27:38,320 –> 00:27:41,040
\nlight, never really fully
\nbrought to God. <\/p>\n

438
\n00:27:41,040 –> 00:27:43,800
\nWe just kind of minimize it and
\nit kind of goes away. <\/p>\n

439
\n00:27:44,160 –> 00:27:46,960
\nAnd the feeling of
\nuncomfortableness disappears <\/p>\n

440
\n00:27:46,960 –> 00:27:49,600
\nwith.
\nTime, Daniel says to us as young<\/p>\n

441
\n00:27:49,600 –> 00:27:55,240
\npeople, no, the way to reckon
\nwith sin in your life is to be <\/p>\n

442
\n00:27:55,240 –> 00:27:58,280
\nso aware of it and to bring it
\nto God. <\/p>\n

443
\n00:27:59,760 –> 00:28:04,600
\nThe idea here is confession of
\nsin, young people, to confess <\/p>\n

444
\n00:28:04,880 –> 00:28:07,600
\nour sins.
\nAnd I want you to think about <\/p>\n

445
\n00:28:07,600 –> 00:28:11,240
\nit, how important this concept
\nis. <\/p>\n

446
\n00:28:12,040 –> 00:28:15,360
\nNow I want you to think in the
\nlight of the example of Daniel, <\/p>\n

447
\n00:28:16,920 –> 00:28:23,000
\nhow often you do this.
\nWhen was the last time you put <\/p>\n

448
\n00:28:23,080 –> 00:28:29,960
\nall the distractions aside, got
\ndown on your knees and put all <\/p>\n

449
\n00:28:29,960 –> 00:28:33,240
\nyour sins before God?
\nWhen did you last do that? <\/p>\n

450
\n00:28:33,680 –> 00:28:37,840
\nI mean seriously in the in the
\nattitude, in the reverence and <\/p>\n

451
\n00:28:37,840 –> 00:28:42,360
\nin the profound thinking that
\nDaniel does. <\/p>\n

452
\n00:28:43,000 –> 00:28:47,080
\nYou see, if you’re like me and
\nyou probably are, it’s so easy <\/p>\n

453
\n00:28:47,080 –> 00:28:50,120
\nto deal with sin when we just
\nsay a quick prayer and say, oh <\/p>\n

454
\n00:28:50,120 –> 00:28:52,520
\nLord, I’ve failed again, I’ve
\nstuffed up again, please forgive<\/p>\n

455
\n00:28:52,520 –> 00:28:56,640
\nme and and I was wrong.
\nThat was bad and it’s over and <\/p>\n

456
\n00:28:56,640 –> 00:28:59,040
\nyou move on to something else,
\nmaybe praying for the Kingdom to<\/p>\n

457
\n00:28:59,040 –> 00:28:59,840
\ncome.
\nGreat. <\/p>\n

458
\n00:29:00,600 –> 00:29:05,520
\nBut young people, when you stop
\nand you and take this the right <\/p>\n

459
\n00:29:05,520 –> 00:29:11,800
\nway, when you dwell on your sins
\nand put them before God in the <\/p>\n

460
\n00:29:11,800 –> 00:29:17,040
\nsame sense and with urgency and
\nand prayer and petition and <\/p>\n

461
\n00:29:17,040 –> 00:29:21,360
\nsupplication as Daniel does,
\nthat’s an essential first step. <\/p>\n

462
\n00:29:21,880 –> 00:29:25,040
\nAnd maybe young people, maybe
\nyou’re struggling with. <\/p>\n

463
\n00:29:25,040 –> 00:29:32,680
\nSin more than you need to.
\nAnd maybe that’s because you <\/p>\n

464
\n00:29:32,680 –> 00:29:35,000
\nhaven’t actually really
\nconfessed it. <\/p>\n

465
\n00:29:35,920 –> 00:29:39,680
\nReally confessed it.
\nThis is what we might call. <\/p>\n

466
\n00:29:40,120 –> 00:29:43,880
\nA Daniel confession, not a quick
\none, not as you’re dozing off to<\/p>\n

467
\n00:29:43,880 –> 00:29:47,280
\nsleep as your head’s already on
\nyour pillow, but on your knees <\/p>\n

468
\n00:29:47,360 –> 00:29:50,480
\nby your bed.
\nYou’ve got problems with sin. <\/p>\n

469
\n00:29:50,760 –> 00:29:53,320
\nYou’ve got problems with your
\ngirlfriend or your boyfriend <\/p>\n

470
\n00:29:53,400 –> 00:29:54,920
\ngoing too far.
\nYou got problems with your <\/p>\n

471
\n00:29:54,920 –> 00:29:58,840
\nphone, your computer.
\nYou got problems with all of <\/p>\n

472
\n00:29:58,840 –> 00:30:02,080
\nthose temptations.
\nGet down on your knees and pray <\/p>\n

473
\n00:30:02,080 –> 00:30:05,120
\nto God, young people, and
\nconfess your sins. <\/p>\n

474
\n00:30:05,360 –> 00:30:08,760
\nBring them into your awareness,
\nnot for the sake of leaving them<\/p>\n

475
\n00:30:08,760 –> 00:30:10,720
\nthere, but leaving them with
\nGod. <\/p>\n

476
\n00:30:11,320 –> 00:30:15,640
\nThat’s what Daniel’s doing.
\nSee, young people, the message <\/p>\n

477
\n00:30:15,640 –> 00:30:19,440
\nthat’s coming out from Daniel’s
\nprayer is that you can never <\/p>\n

478
\n00:30:19,600 –> 00:30:24,320
\nfeel in control of sin if you’re
\nin control of them and you keep <\/p>\n

479
\n00:30:24,320 –> 00:30:27,440
\nyour sins to yourself.
\nThe whole message here of Israel<\/p>\n

480
\n00:30:27,640 –> 00:30:31,280
\nis those sins had to be placed
\nbefore God so he could take <\/p>\n

481
\n00:30:31,280 –> 00:30:34,960
\ncontrol of them.
\nYou will never do that if you <\/p>\n

482
\n00:30:34,960 –> 00:30:40,160
\nkeep them to yourself.
\nYou know the story of David, <\/p>\n

483
\n00:30:40,160 –> 00:30:43,120
\ndon’t you?
\nAnd you know what Psalm 32 and <\/p>\n

484
\n00:30:43,120 –> 00:30:47,040
\nPsalm 51 portray of a man who
\nkept his sins to himself? <\/p>\n

485
\n00:30:49,320 –> 00:30:55,360
\nThat’s no way to deal with sin.
\nThe The way to deal with sin, <\/p>\n

486
\n00:30:55,360 –> 00:30:58,280
\nyoung people, is to confess to
\nGod. <\/p>\n

487
\n00:30:59,720 –> 00:31:01,240
\nAnd that’s all I’m going to say
\nabout SIM tonight. <\/p>\n

488
\n00:31:01,280 –> 00:31:03,320
\nThat’s all we’re going to take
\nfrom message of Daniel because <\/p>\n

489
\n00:31:03,320 –> 00:31:05,560
\nthat’s what he does.
\nAlways see him as we peer <\/p>\n

490
\n00:31:05,560 –> 00:31:08,240
\nthrough his window.
\nAnd you know, young people, if <\/p>\n

491
\n00:31:08,240 –> 00:31:11,120
\nyou look at the chronology of
\nDaniel, this could be the very <\/p>\n

492
\n00:31:11,120 –> 00:31:14,640
\nprayer that put him in the
\nlion’s den. <\/p>\n

493
\n00:31:15,400 –> 00:31:17,840
\nThis absolutely could have been
\nthe prayer. <\/p>\n

494
\n00:31:17,840 –> 00:31:20,120
\nAs you work through the
\nchronology of Daniel, this could<\/p>\n

495
\n00:31:20,120 –> 00:31:23,720
\nhave been the very prayer.
\nThat he was caught for and <\/p>\n

496
\n00:31:23,720 –> 00:31:26,280
\nslapped in the lion’s den in
\nDaniel chapter 6. <\/p>\n

497
\n00:31:26,440 –> 00:31:29,560
\nBecause we know in Daniel
\nchapter 6 this is 1 little line <\/p>\n

498
\n00:31:29,560 –> 00:31:32,440
\nof evidence that he was
\nsupplicating to God and pouring <\/p>\n

499
\n00:31:32,440 –> 00:31:34,480
\nout his prayer as he prayed.
\nTowards Jerusalem. <\/p>\n

500
\n00:31:34,800 –> 00:31:38,320
\nThat’s the very sense of this
\nprayer in Daniel Chapter 9 for <\/p>\n

501
\n00:31:38,320 –> 00:31:41,520
\nyoung people.
\nLet’s be honest about our sin. <\/p>\n

502
\n00:31:42,640 –> 00:31:46,680
\nLet’s not fake or even minimize
\nit in our mind. <\/p>\n

503
\n00:31:46,680 –> 00:31:49,800
\nAnd let it disappear.
\nAnd you know, if we have that <\/p>\n

504
\n00:31:49,800 –> 00:31:52,760
\nperspective, I can I feel like
\nthis is true. <\/p>\n

505
\n00:31:54,400 –> 00:31:58,320
\nIf you are a person that begins
\nthat habit and opens up your <\/p>\n

506
\n00:31:58,320 –> 00:32:03,800
\nconfessions to God and does it
\nsincerely, you are far less <\/p>\n

507
\n00:32:04,080 –> 00:32:08,480
\nlikely to judge other.
\nPeople, it’s true. <\/p>\n

508
\n00:32:09,520 –> 00:32:13,200
\nBecause if you are aware of your
\nown sins and you’re giving them <\/p>\n

509
\n00:32:13,200 –> 00:32:16,520
\nover to God to control, and he
\nmight not take them away, young <\/p>\n

510
\n00:32:16,520 –> 00:32:19,280
\npeople, we know that he doesn’t
\nsuddenly make temptations <\/p>\n

511
\n00:32:19,280 –> 00:32:22,120
\ndisappear.
\nBut if you give your sins to <\/p>\n

512
\n00:32:22,120 –> 00:32:25,560
\nGod.
\nYou’re so much more aware of <\/p>\n

513
\n00:32:25,560 –> 00:32:31,280
\nyour need and so less likely to
\njudge other people. <\/p>\n

514
\n00:32:32,200 –> 00:32:34,600
\nYou need to believe that God is
\nin control of sin. <\/p>\n

515
\n00:32:34,760 –> 00:32:37,240
\nYou know, just.
\nCheck out Chapter 9 verse 7 <\/p>\n

516
\n00:32:37,240 –> 00:32:42,440
\nagain.
\nJust an interesting footnote on <\/p>\n

517
\n00:32:42,440 –> 00:32:48,000
\nDaniel’s use of a word in
\nChapter 9, verse 7 to see in <\/p>\n

518
\n00:32:48,000 –> 00:32:57,160
\nverse 7 it says we just find the
\nword, Oh Lord, righteousness <\/p>\n

519
\n00:32:57,160 –> 00:33:00,240
\nbunks to you, but just to our
\nshame of face as it is this day.<\/p>\n

520
\n00:33:00,240 –> 00:33:02,000
\nThe man of Judah, the
\ninhabitants of Jerusalem and all<\/p>\n

521
\n00:33:02,000 –> 00:33:07,200
\nIsrael, those near and those who
\nare and those far off in all the<\/p>\n

522
\n00:33:07,200 –> 00:33:09,360
\ncountries to which you have
\ndriven them because of the <\/p>\n

523
\n00:33:09,360 –> 00:33:11,520
\nunfaithfulness which they have
\ncommitted to you. <\/p>\n

524
\n00:33:11,520 –> 00:33:13,000
\nAnd I think I have the wrong
\nverse. <\/p>\n

525
\n00:33:13,800 –> 00:33:18,760
\nWhere’s the word trespass?
\nThe word trespass. <\/p>\n

526
\n00:33:18,760 –> 00:33:20,440
\nJust scan your eyes down and see
\nif you can help me out. <\/p>\n

527
\n00:33:23,400 –> 00:33:26,160
\nOh, in the king J, That’s right.
\nI was going between King J. <\/p>\n

528
\n00:33:26,320 –> 00:33:30,640
\nThe word trespass is the Hebrew
\nword to cover up or to act <\/p>\n

529
\n00:33:30,640 –> 00:33:33,280
\ncovertly.
\nSo the interesting thing is <\/p>\n

530
\n00:33:33,280 –> 00:33:34,560
\nDaniel’s doing the opposite of
\nthat. <\/p>\n

531
\n00:33:34,680 –> 00:33:36,280
\nHe’s like, let’s uncover those
\nsins. <\/p>\n

532
\n00:33:36,280 –> 00:33:39,560
\nForget acting covertly, forget
\nhiding them, forget pretending <\/p>\n

533
\n00:33:39,560 –> 00:33:42,120
\nin your youth group that you’re
\nall good, but you’re not. <\/p>\n

534
\n00:33:42,920 –> 00:33:46,160
\nThat’s the idea of trespass here
\nis to cover up your own sins. <\/p>\n

535
\n00:33:46,720 –> 00:33:49,600
\nThe the great irony, young
\npeople, for us, the great <\/p>\n

536
\n00:33:49,600 –> 00:33:55,160
\nprofound truth is that when we
\nuncover our sins, God will cover<\/p>\n

537
\n00:33:55,160 –> 00:33:59,040
\nthem.
\nYou will never cover your own <\/p>\n

538
\n00:33:59,040 –> 00:34:03,520
\nsins.
\nSo stop trespassing and open <\/p>\n

539
\n00:34:03,520 –> 00:34:06,280
\nthem up to God.
\nDon’t hold on to it. <\/p>\n

540
\n00:34:06,720 –> 00:34:11,600
\nDon’t pretend there’s no need to
\nfake in our young people’s <\/p>\n

541
\n00:34:11,600 –> 00:34:14,800
\ngroup.
\nDo you know what Daniel shows us<\/p>\n

542
\n00:34:14,800 –> 00:34:17,600
\nis that we need to align, and we
\ncan align our petition with <\/p>\n

543
\n00:34:17,600 –> 00:34:19,880
\nGod’s purpose.
\nIt’s not just what Daniel <\/p>\n

544
\n00:34:19,880 –> 00:34:21,719
\nwanted, right?
\nHe keeps coming back to this <\/p>\n

545
\n00:34:21,719 –> 00:34:24,760
\nidea that God’s holy.
\nHe wants his name to be centered<\/p>\n

546
\n00:34:24,760 –> 00:34:27,080
\nback in Jerusalem and on his
\npeople and on his land. <\/p>\n

547
\n00:34:27,560 –> 00:34:31,040
\nDaniel’s whole prayer is aligned
\nwith wanting God’s purpose to <\/p>\n

548
\n00:34:31,040 –> 00:34:35,120
\ncontinue, and in that context,
\nhe pours out his sin and he sins<\/p>\n

549
\n00:34:35,120 –> 00:34:38,440
\nthe people.
\nIt’s a deep desire to see God as<\/p>\n

550
\n00:34:38,440 –> 00:34:44,199
\nright, and he hates sin.
\nI wonder, young people. <\/p>\n

551
\n00:34:45,800 –> 00:34:49,280
\nOver the last couple weeks,
\nwhether our life demonstrates <\/p>\n

552
\n00:34:49,280 –> 00:34:56,080
\none who does truly hate sin or
\nwhether we’ve become blindly <\/p>\n

553
\n00:34:56,360 –> 00:35:00,680
\nunaware of sin in our life,
\nlet’s refocus on that because <\/p>\n

554
\n00:35:00,960 –> 00:35:04,600
\nwhat this brings us to young
\npeople is the mercy of God. <\/p>\n

555
\n00:35:04,920 –> 00:35:09,000
\nDaniel keeps calling out for
\nGod’s mercy, and here we are in <\/p>\n

556
\n00:35:09,000 –> 00:35:12,760
\nDaniel Chapter 9, verse 19.
\nHere’s the conclusion of his <\/p>\n

557
\n00:35:12,760 –> 00:35:14,960
\nprayer.
\nI don’t know if you’ve ever <\/p>\n

558
\n00:35:15,000 –> 00:35:18,120
\nyelled out to God before in your
\nown personal prayer, ever cried <\/p>\n

559
\n00:35:18,120 –> 00:35:22,360
\nout because things have been so
\nhard, but here’s verse 19. <\/p>\n

560
\n00:35:23,600 –> 00:35:30,400
\nOh Lord, here, oh Lord, forgive,
\noh Lord, listen and act. <\/p>\n

561
\n00:35:31,520 –> 00:35:34,440
\nDo not delay for your own.
\nSakes, it’s not about Daniel. <\/p>\n

562
\n00:35:34,440 –> 00:35:37,160
\nIt’s about God’s sake, God’s
\nglory. <\/p>\n

563
\n00:35:37,880 –> 00:35:41,400
\nDo not delay for your own sake,
\nmy God, for your city and your <\/p>\n

564
\n00:35:41,400 –> 00:35:45,360
\npeople are called by your name.
\nAnd that’s the attitude of <\/p>\n

565
\n00:35:45,360 –> 00:35:48,920
\nDaniel.
\nAnd so, young people, the <\/p>\n

566
\n00:35:48,920 –> 00:35:54,000
\nextraordinary thing happens that
\nthe Angel comes to him at the <\/p>\n

567
\n00:35:54,000 –> 00:35:56,280
\ntime of the evening offering in
\nverse 21. <\/p>\n

568
\n00:35:56,280 –> 00:35:57,160
\nHave you ever thought about
\nthat? <\/p>\n

569
\n00:35:57,800 –> 00:36:01,160
\nThat’s pretty odd.
\nThe time of the evening offering<\/p>\n

570
\n00:36:01,560 –> 00:36:04,200
\nwhere, where is Daniel?
\nObviously he’s in Babylon. <\/p>\n

571
\n00:36:04,200 –> 00:36:07,720
\nHe’s nowhere near an altar or
\nthe temple. <\/p>\n

572
\n00:36:08,200 –> 00:36:12,880
\nAnd yet Daniel can tell you that
\nthe Angel came at the time of <\/p>\n

573
\n00:36:12,880 –> 00:36:16,640
\nthe evening sacrifice, something
\nembedded in the Law of Moses, <\/p>\n

574
\n00:36:16,840 –> 00:36:19,600
\nsomething clearly part of what
\nthe temple does. <\/p>\n

575
\n00:36:20,440 –> 00:36:22,840
\nAnd yet he’s in Babylon.
\nAnd what’s happening, young <\/p>\n

576
\n00:36:22,840 –> 00:36:26,640
\npeople, is because Daniel can’t
\noffer sacrifices and offerings <\/p>\n

577
\n00:36:26,640 –> 00:36:29,240
\nanymore under the law of Moses
\nbecause the temple’s destroyed. <\/p>\n

578
\n00:36:29,600 –> 00:36:33,560
\nHe’s taken that moment of the
\nevening sacrifice and used that <\/p>\n

579
\n00:36:33,600 –> 00:36:37,200
\nevery day to offer his
\nconfession to God for sin. <\/p>\n

580
\n00:36:37,440 –> 00:36:41,440
\nNo altar, no ram, no he goat, no
\nBullock, none of that. <\/p>\n

581
\n00:36:42,360 –> 00:36:47,000
\nBut he uses that time to confess
\nhis sin to God and Gabriel comes<\/p>\n

582
\n00:36:47,560 –> 00:36:53,720
\nand says, Daniel, I want you to
\nunderstand this verse 23 at the <\/p>\n

583
\n00:36:53,720 –> 00:36:55,960
\nbeginning of your supplication,
\nthe command went out and I’ve <\/p>\n

584
\n00:36:55,960 –> 00:36:57,920
\ncome to tell you, for you are
\ngreatly beloved. <\/p>\n

585
\n00:36:58,200 –> 00:37:00,560
\nTherefore, consider the matter
\nand understand. <\/p>\n

586
\n00:37:00,560 –> 00:37:04,240
\nThis vision and here we go.
\nWhat I want you to be really <\/p>\n

587
\n00:37:04,240 –> 00:37:07,720
\nclear on young people is this
\nright? <\/p>\n

588
\n00:37:08,520 –> 00:37:11,080
\nWe are going to jump into and
\nit’s really warm in. <\/p>\n

589
\n00:37:11,080 –> 00:37:13,080
\nHere I don’t know if anyone else
\nis feeling that too, but I am <\/p>\n

590
\n00:37:13,080 –> 00:37:17,720
\nsweating like a pig, OK?
\nSo I hope it’s not too warm of <\/p>\n

591
\n00:37:17,720 –> 00:37:21,920
\nyou in here for you to work out
\nwhat Daniel had to do at the <\/p>\n

592
\n00:37:21,920 –> 00:37:25,080
\ntime of the evening sacrifice.
\nAnd that is the Angel said to <\/p>\n

593
\n00:37:25,080 –> 00:37:29,520
\nhim, listen and understand now
\nwhat what Daniel is about to <\/p>\n

594
\n00:37:29,520 –> 00:37:32,120
\nget.
\nI’m honestly going to tell you <\/p>\n

595
\n00:37:32,120 –> 00:37:34,840
\nfrom my perspective is probably
\none of the most exciting <\/p>\n

596
\n00:37:34,840 –> 00:37:39,400
\nprophecies in the Bible and one
\nof the most confirming of the <\/p>\n

597
\n00:37:39,400 –> 00:37:42,160
\ntruth of the Bible.
\nAnd yet it’s far more than that,<\/p>\n

598
\n00:37:42,480 –> 00:37:43,880
\nright?
\nIt’s far more than that. <\/p>\n

599
\n00:37:44,760 –> 00:37:46,760
\nWhat does this prophecy have to
\ndo with his prayer? <\/p>\n

600
\n00:37:46,760 –> 00:37:49,440
\nWell, first of all, we sort of
\nwant to look at the prophecy. <\/p>\n

601
\n00:37:49,800 –> 00:37:52,320
\nBut before we do, I want you to
\nbe impressed by this. <\/p>\n

602
\n00:37:52,640 –> 00:37:59,600
\nIf you claim to follow Jesus and
\nyou love Jesus, if you do, you <\/p>\n

603
\n00:37:59,600 –> 00:38:04,320
\nwill be very interested in not
\nonly Bible prophecy, but Bible <\/p>\n

604
\n00:38:04,320 –> 00:38:08,280
\ndates.
\nJesus is all over dates in Bible<\/p>\n

605
\n00:38:08,280 –> 00:38:11,560
\nprophecy.
\nHe’s not just the Jesus. <\/p>\n

606
\n00:38:11,560 –> 00:38:13,920
\nAnd sometimes he’s portrayed by
\nthe churches around us. <\/p>\n

607
\n00:38:14,760 –> 00:38:18,200
\nJesus is completely interested
\nin Bible prophecy and timelines,<\/p>\n

608
\n00:38:18,200 –> 00:38:20,480
\nas was Daniel.
\nAnd he refers to Daniel. <\/p>\n

609
\n00:38:20,720 –> 00:38:23,880
\nHe says in Matthew 24 when you
\nsee the abomination of <\/p>\n

610
\n00:38:23,880 –> 00:38:25,880
\ndesolation which Daniel spoke
\nabout. <\/p>\n

611
\n00:38:26,080 –> 00:38:29,120
\nAnd then he.
\nSays if you read that, try and <\/p>\n

612
\n00:38:29,120 –> 00:38:32,680
\nunderstand he’s referring to
\nDaniel Chapter 9 when Gabriel <\/p>\n

613
\n00:38:32,680 –> 00:38:34,040
\nsays I want you to understand
\nthis. <\/p>\n

614
\n00:38:34,600 –> 00:38:36,440
\nWhen you go back to Daniel,
\nthat’s what Daniel was doing, <\/p>\n

615
\n00:38:36,440 –> 00:38:38,040
\nright?
\nHe was reading Jeremiah the <\/p>\n

616
\n00:38:38,040 –> 00:38:40,280
\nprophet and trying to understand
\nthe time period. <\/p>\n

617
\n00:38:40,520 –> 00:38:44,360
\nSo when we do this, I want you
\nto sort of gear up if we can, <\/p>\n

618
\n00:38:45,240 –> 00:38:48,520
\nand we want to pick apart the 70
\nweek prophecy, which is what <\/p>\n

619
\n00:38:48,520 –> 00:38:51,000
\nGabriel gives to him.
\nThis is the spirit of Daniel. <\/p>\n

620
\n00:38:51,160 –> 00:38:55,400
\nThis is the Spirit of Jesus.
\nSo this is what he says, right? <\/p>\n

621
\n00:38:55,640 –> 00:39:01,560
\nHe says 70 weeks are determined
\nfor your people and for your <\/p>\n

622
\n00:39:01,560 –> 00:39:04,640
\nholy city.
\nRight now, whatever this 70 <\/p>\n

623
\n00:39:04,640 –> 00:39:08,360
\nweeks is, it has 6 purposes.
\nOK, And you don’t have to write <\/p>\n

624
\n00:39:08,360 –> 00:39:11,120
\nall this down because I can give
\nyou the slides, but the 70 weeks<\/p>\n

625
\n00:39:11,120 –> 00:39:15,240
\nprophecy has 6 purposes.
\nIt’s to end transgression. <\/p>\n

626
\n00:39:15,360 –> 00:39:18,360
\nOh, that totally relates to
\nDaniel’s prayer, right? <\/p>\n

627
\n00:39:18,360 –> 00:39:19,960
\nBecause that’s what he’s all
\nworried about is the <\/p>\n

628
\n00:39:19,960 –> 00:39:21,400
\ntransgression in sin of his
\npeople. <\/p>\n

629
\n00:39:21,680 –> 00:39:24,280
\nSo the 70 week prophecy is going
\nto end transgression. <\/p>\n

630
\n00:39:24,560 –> 00:39:26,120
\nIt’s going to make an end of
\nsins. <\/p>\n

631
\n00:39:26,600 –> 00:39:29,120
\nIt’s going to make
\nreconciliation or covering for <\/p>\n

632
\n00:39:29,120 –> 00:39:31,520
\niniquity perfect.
\nThat’s what we’ve been talking <\/p>\n

633
\n00:39:31,520 –> 00:39:35,400
\nabout, to bring in everlasting
\nrighteousness. 5th it’s going to<\/p>\n

634
\n00:39:35,400 –> 00:39:38,600
\nseal up the vision of the
\nprophecy, and number six, it’s <\/p>\n

635
\n00:39:38,600 –> 00:39:41,240
\ngoing to be for the anointing of
\nthe Most Holy. <\/p>\n

636
\n00:39:42,080 –> 00:39:45,720
\nThat’s what this prophecy is all
\nabout in verse 24. <\/p>\n

637
\n00:39:47,240 –> 00:39:50,680
\nNow what are we talking about
\nwith 70 weeks? <\/p>\n

638
\n00:39:50,680 –> 00:39:54,840
\nWell young people, there is 2
\nverses in particular in the <\/p>\n

639
\n00:39:54,840 –> 00:39:59,720
\nBible, Numbers 1434 and Ezekiel
\nchapter 4 verse 6. <\/p>\n

640
\n00:40:00,040 –> 00:40:02,800
\nThat show you really clearly
\nthat a principle of Bible <\/p>\n

641
\n00:40:02,800 –> 00:40:06,680
\nprophecy is that we can take one
\nday for one year. <\/p>\n

642
\n00:40:07,760 –> 00:40:11,480
\nNow if you just stand back and
\nthink, should we take 70 weeks, <\/p>\n

643
\n00:40:11,480 –> 00:40:16,800
\nLiterally nothing happened in 70
\nweeks after Daniel’s kind of <\/p>\n

644
\n00:40:17,360 –> 00:40:19,520
\nsituation here, 70 weeks is not
\na long time. <\/p>\n

645
\n00:40:20,120 –> 00:40:24,920
\nBut if you take this as 70
\nsevens, which is 70 weeks or 70 <\/p>\n

646
\n00:40:24,920 –> 00:40:29,400
\nweeks of days, you end up with a
\nday for a year principle that <\/p>\n

647
\n00:40:29,400 –> 00:40:34,880
\ngives you, well, what’s 70 * 7
\nfour 190, right. <\/p>\n

648
\n00:40:35,000 –> 00:40:39,040
\nSo you actually have 490 years
\nusing the day for a year <\/p>\n

649
\n00:40:39,040 –> 00:40:43,280
\nprinciple.
\nAnd, and in 490 years from the <\/p>\n

650
\n00:40:43,280 –> 00:40:46,040
\nstart point of this prophecy,
\nwhich we’ll look at, it’s going <\/p>\n

651
\n00:40:46,040 –> 00:40:52,280
\nto do all six of these things,
\n490 years from the start of this<\/p>\n

652
\n00:40:52,280 –> 00:40:55,800
\nprophecy and we’re told when it
\nstarts. <\/p>\n

653
\n00:40:57,440 –> 00:41:01,160
\nAll right.
\nSo what I want to do is have a <\/p>\n

654
\n00:41:01,160 –> 00:41:03,320
\nlook at who this is really
\nabout. <\/p>\n

655
\n00:41:04,560 –> 00:41:07,200
\nThe first thing I want you to
\nnotice is the subject of this <\/p>\n

656
\n00:41:07,200 –> 00:41:10,240
\nprophecy, the 70 weeks is
\ntalking about the Messiah, the <\/p>\n

657
\n00:41:10,240 –> 00:41:13,080
\nPrince.
\nLook at Chapter 9, verse 25. <\/p>\n

658
\n00:41:14,360 –> 00:41:18,800
\nThere is a character mentioned
\nhere and he’s called Messiah the<\/p>\n

659
\n00:41:18,800 –> 00:41:22,680
\nPrince in verse 25.
\nHe’s also referred to as the <\/p>\n

660
\n00:41:22,680 –> 00:41:27,000
\nPrince in verse 26, right?
\nThat’s worth highlighting in <\/p>\n

661
\n00:41:27,000 –> 00:41:32,040
\nyour Bible or just being really
\nclear on whatever this 490 years<\/p>\n

662
\n00:41:32,040 –> 00:41:35,040
\nis about.
\nThe prime subject of it is <\/p>\n

663
\n00:41:35,040 –> 00:41:37,200
\nMessiah the Prince.
\nNow we all know who the Messiah <\/p>\n

664
\n00:41:37,200 –> 00:41:38,160
\nis.
\nIt’s Jesus. <\/p>\n

665
\n00:41:38,240 –> 00:41:42,560
\nThere is no other Messiah.
\nThe word Prince here is the idea<\/p>\n

666
\n00:41:42,560 –> 00:41:45,280
\nof ruler or commander.
\nIt’s used of the kings of Israel<\/p>\n

667
\n00:41:45,520 –> 00:41:47,880
\nand it’s only once in Isaiah.
\nYou can look that up on your <\/p>\n

668
\n00:41:47,880 –> 00:41:49,360
\nown.
\nIt’s a beautiful little verse. <\/p>\n

669
\n00:41:49,920 –> 00:41:51,120
\nAnd you know what’s really
\ninteresting? <\/p>\n

670
\n00:41:51,240 –> 00:41:54,560
\nIt’s never used in Daniel except
\nfor here in the 70 weeks <\/p>\n

671
\n00:41:54,560 –> 00:41:58,240
\nprophecy and in Daniel Chapter
\n11 verse 22, referring to <\/p>\n

672
\n00:41:58,240 –> 00:42:01,120
\nexactly the same person, Jesus
\nChrist. <\/p>\n

673
\n00:42:01,680 –> 00:42:04,400
\nAll the other words for Prince
\nand Daniel are some other word. <\/p>\n

674
\n00:42:04,680 –> 00:42:09,040
\nThis is special.
\nThis is a special person and <\/p>\n

675
\n00:42:09,040 –> 00:42:11,920
\nit’s the Messiah.
\nNow ready. <\/p>\n

676
\n00:42:12,000 –> 00:42:16,400
\nI’m going to take you through to
\nme the most logical way to read <\/p>\n

677
\n00:42:16,400 –> 00:42:20,560
\nthe 70 weeks prophecy.
\nIt starts in verse 25 and goes <\/p>\n

678
\n00:42:20,560 –> 00:42:26,440
\nthrough verse 26 and 27.
\nHere we go first of all, the 70 <\/p>\n

679
\n00:42:26,440 –> 00:42:30,200
\nweek prophecy is broken into
\nthree sections, right. <\/p>\n

680
\n00:42:31,400 –> 00:42:32,760
\nOh, I can walk away from this.
\nNice. <\/p>\n

681
\n00:42:32,920 –> 00:42:36,200
\nOK we’re to Oh no, let me read
\nit first. <\/p>\n

682
\n00:42:36,200 –> 00:42:39,240
\nOK come back to verse 25.
\nJust so you know I’m not making <\/p>\n

683
\n00:42:39,240 –> 00:42:40,520
\nthis up.
\nLook at verse 25. <\/p>\n

684
\n00:42:40,960 –> 00:42:43,320
\nKnow therefore and understand.
\nSo let’s do it. <\/p>\n

685
\n00:42:43,320 –> 00:42:45,800
\nWe got to hang on to this.
\nIt’s brilliant that from the <\/p>\n

686
\n00:42:45,800 –> 00:42:48,520
\ngoing forth of the command to
\nrestore and build Jerusalem <\/p>\n

687
\n00:42:48,600 –> 00:42:55,920
\nuntil Messiah the Prince, there
\nshall be 7 weeks and 62 weeks, <\/p>\n

688
\n00:42:57,280 –> 00:43:00,120
\nand the street will be built
\nagain, and the wall, even in <\/p>\n

689
\n00:43:00,120 –> 00:43:02,960
\ntroublesome times.
\nNow hold on, if you add up 62 <\/p>\n

690
\n00:43:02,960 –> 00:43:04,360
\nand seven, what does that add up
\nto? <\/p>\n

691
\n00:43:06,720 –> 00:43:13,280
\nHow many weeks?
\n626345678969 weeks. <\/p>\n

692
\n00:43:13,560 –> 00:43:15,160
\nI thought this was a 70 week
\nprophecy. <\/p>\n

693
\n00:43:15,480 –> 00:43:17,240
\nAnd it is.
\nThere’s one more week and it’s <\/p>\n

694
\n00:43:17,240 –> 00:43:20,880
\nreferred to in verse 27.
\nThen he should confirm a <\/p>\n

695
\n00:43:20,880 –> 00:43:24,520
\ncovenant with many for one week.
\nSo the 70 week prophecy, this is<\/p>\n

696
\n00:43:24,520 –> 00:43:26,600
\nawesome is broken up into three
\nsections. <\/p>\n

697
\n00:43:26,920 –> 00:43:30,800
\nThere’s seven weeks, that’s 49
\ndays or 49 years. <\/p>\n

698
\n00:43:31,160 –> 00:43:38,080
\nThere’s 62 weeks, which is 434
\ndays, 434 years. <\/p>\n

699
\n00:43:38,360 –> 00:43:41,440
\nAnd then there’s one week at the
\nend. <\/p>\n

700
\n00:43:42,520 –> 00:43:46,200
\nAnd we’re also told that
\nsomething happens in the middle <\/p>\n

701
\n00:43:46,200 –> 00:43:51,320
\nof that final week.
\nDo you see that 1st 27 for one <\/p>\n

702
\n00:43:51,320 –> 00:43:53,280
\nweek, but in the middle of the
\nweek? <\/p>\n

703
\n00:43:53,920 –> 00:43:58,080
\nSo here we go.
\nWe’ve got 7 years or seven <\/p>\n

704
\n00:43:58,080 –> 00:44:01,880
\nweeks, 62 weeks, one week, and
\nthat one week is divided into 3 <\/p>\n

705
\n00:44:01,880 –> 00:44:03,720
\n1\/2 days and 3 1\/2 days in the
\nmiddle of the week. <\/p>\n

706
\n00:44:03,720 –> 00:44:07,440
\nDoes that make sense?
\nAll right, let me show you a <\/p>\n

707
\n00:44:07,440 –> 00:44:09,320
\npicture of it.
\nThis is what it looks like. <\/p>\n

708
\n00:44:10,280 –> 00:44:14,480
\nSo here’s our seventy week, our
\nseven weeks, 62 weeks. <\/p>\n

709
\n00:44:15,080 –> 00:44:17,560
\nThere’s a one week and something
\nhappens in the midst of it. <\/p>\n

710
\n00:44:18,120 –> 00:44:20,560
\nNow this is incredible.
\nYoung people, I want to show you<\/p>\n

711
\n00:44:20,880 –> 00:44:24,280
\nhow good this is.
\nVerse 25 tells us what’s going <\/p>\n

712
\n00:44:24,280 –> 00:44:27,320
\nto happen in the first seven
\nweeks, Says the streets are <\/p>\n

713
\n00:44:27,320 –> 00:44:30,000
\ngoing to be built and the wall
\nin troublesome times. <\/p>\n

714
\n00:44:30,480 –> 00:44:34,240
\nWhen was the wall built?
\nWho built the wall? <\/p>\n

715
\n00:44:38,800 –> 00:44:40,000
\nYes, thanks.
\nOK, good. <\/p>\n

716
\n00:44:40,320 –> 00:44:43,800
\nWas it easy days?
\nOK, that’s pretty clear, right? <\/p>\n

717
\n00:44:44,040 –> 00:44:46,920
\nSo he says there’s going to be a
\ncommand and the first seven <\/p>\n

718
\n00:44:46,920 –> 00:44:48,720
\nweeks are going to be
\ntroublesome times when the <\/p>\n

719
\n00:44:48,720 –> 00:44:51,080
\nwall’s built.
\nSo that’s the first seven weeks <\/p>\n

720
\n00:44:51,080 –> 00:44:53,800
\nfor 49 years.
\nThis is the time of Ezra in <\/p>\n

721
\n00:44:53,800 –> 00:44:55,760
\nNehemiah.
\nThen it says there’s going to be<\/p>\n

722
\n00:44:55,760 –> 00:44:58,560
\n62 weeks.
\nWhat’s going to happen in the 62<\/p>\n

723
\n00:44:58,560 –> 00:45:00,440
\nweeks?
\nThe massive stretch of time? <\/p>\n

724
\n00:45:00,680 –> 00:45:02,120
\nThe answer?
\nNothing. <\/p>\n

725
\n00:45:03,320 –> 00:45:06,120
\nZip.
\nIt’s a period of total waiting. <\/p>\n

726
\n00:45:06,120 –> 00:45:08,280
\nNothing happens for the people
\nof God. <\/p>\n

727
\n00:45:08,440 –> 00:45:12,560
\nThey’re just counting out 62
\nweeks or 434 years according to <\/p>\n

728
\n00:45:12,560 –> 00:45:16,040
\nprophecy.
\nBut what the prophecy goes on to<\/p>\n

729
\n00:45:16,040 –> 00:45:19,320
\nsay in the next two verses,
\nafter verse 25, is that there’s <\/p>\n

730
\n00:45:19,320 –> 00:45:25,040
\ntwo things that will happen in
\nthe final week and after. <\/p>\n

731
\n00:45:26,440 –> 00:45:32,240
\nDuring the one week, Messiah
\nwill confirm the covenant, and <\/p>\n

732
\n00:45:32,240 –> 00:45:37,400
\nthen after the one week Messiah
\nwill destroy the temple, right? <\/p>\n

733
\n00:45:37,480 –> 00:45:39,480
\nYeah.
\nLet’s see this little bit here I<\/p>\n

734
\n00:45:39,840 –> 00:45:42,920
\nwant to show you.
\nLet’s zoom in because verse 26 <\/p>\n

735
\n00:45:42,920 –> 00:45:47,600
\nand 27 explain what happens
\nafter the 62 week. <\/p>\n

736
\n00:45:47,600 –> 00:45:49,760
\nPeriod, that whole period of
\nnothing, right? <\/p>\n

737
\n00:45:50,200 –> 00:45:54,760
\nSo here’s verse 26 and 27 and I
\nwant you to this is we’re doing <\/p>\n

738
\n00:45:54,760 –> 00:45:56,960
\nit Daniel, right?
\nHe had to work this out too. <\/p>\n

739
\n00:45:56,960 –> 00:45:58,520
\nThis is he did it thousands of
\nyears ago. <\/p>\n

740
\n00:45:58,520 –> 00:46:01,000
\nWe’re just trying to do it in
\n2021 and Enfield Ecclesial Hall <\/p>\n

741
\n00:46:01,280 –> 00:46:07,200
\nright here we go.
\nVerse 26 says Messiah shall be <\/p>\n

742
\n00:46:07,200 –> 00:46:10,080
\ncut off the Hebrew word in your
\nBible for cut. <\/p>\n

743
\n00:46:10,080 –> 00:46:15,240
\nOff means to destroy or to make
\na covenant and but not for <\/p>\n

744
\n00:46:15,240 –> 00:46:18,240
\nhimself.
\nAnd then it says and the people <\/p>\n

745
\n00:46:18,240 –> 00:46:22,560
\nof the Prince, that special word
\nshall come and destroy the city <\/p>\n

746
\n00:46:22,560 –> 00:46:26,000
\nand the sanctuary.
\nSo first here’s the the bare <\/p>\n

747
\n00:46:26,000 –> 00:46:27,880
\nbasics of Daniel’s 70 week
\nprophecy. <\/p>\n

748
\n00:46:28,240 –> 00:46:32,680
\nThe Messiah will come at the end
\nof the 62 weeks and he’s going <\/p>\n

749
\n00:46:32,680 –> 00:46:38,160
\nto be cut off and he’s going to
\nmake a covenant, and after that <\/p>\n

750
\n00:46:38,320 –> 00:46:42,440
\nhe will come and absolutely
\nobliterate Jerusalem in the <\/p>\n

751
\n00:46:42,440 –> 00:46:45,920
\ntemple.
\nRight now. <\/p>\n

752
\n00:46:45,960 –> 00:46:50,040
\nVerse 27 tells you exactly the
\nsame stuff in slightly different<\/p>\n

753
\n00:46:50,040 –> 00:46:54,480
\ndetail, so 27 goes back over
\nthose two events again. <\/p>\n

754
\n00:46:54,840 –> 00:46:57,000
\nWhat I mean is he shall come and
\nconfirm. <\/p>\n

755
\n00:46:57,200 –> 00:46:59,880
\nHebrews strengthen a covenant
\nthat fits right. <\/p>\n

756
\n00:47:00,120 –> 00:47:03,160
\nCut off is the idea of a
\ncovenant with many for one week.<\/p>\n

757
\n00:47:03,160 –> 00:47:04,440
\nSo that’s what happens in the
\none week. <\/p>\n

758
\n00:47:04,720 –> 00:47:07,160
\nBut in the middle of the week he
\nshall bring an end to sacrifice <\/p>\n

759
\n00:47:07,160 –> 00:47:10,000
\nand offering.
\nSo in the middle of that week <\/p>\n

760
\n00:47:10,320 –> 00:47:12,440
\nhe’s going to be cut off or
\nbring an end to sacrifice and <\/p>\n

761
\n00:47:12,440 –> 00:47:14,680
\noffering.
\nAnd of course, after that one <\/p>\n

762
\n00:47:14,680 –> 00:47:17,760
\nweek on the wing of the
\nabomination shall be one who <\/p>\n

763
\n00:47:17,760 –> 00:47:21,040
\nmakes desolate, even until the
\nconsummation which is determined<\/p>\n

764
\n00:47:21,320 –> 00:47:24,040
\nis poured out on the desolator.
\nWhat on earth? <\/p>\n

765
\n00:47:24,880 –> 00:47:26,600
\nWhat is that talking about?
\nHere’s what it’s talking about. <\/p>\n

766
\n00:47:26,600 –> 00:47:28,440
\nI want to show you how cool this
\nis. <\/p>\n

767
\n00:47:29,560 –> 00:47:31,600
\nHere’s how the 70 weeks works
\nout. <\/p>\n

768
\n00:47:31,600 –> 00:47:33,600
\nAnd I’m going to prove to you
\nthe starting point because <\/p>\n

769
\n00:47:33,600 –> 00:47:35,240
\nthat’s the big question.
\nLike how do we know when it <\/p>\n

770
\n00:47:35,240 –> 00:47:38,280
\nstarts?
\nWe’ve got 49 years of <\/p>\n

771
\n00:47:38,280 –> 00:47:40,600
\ntroublesome times.
\nThat’s Ezra Nehemiah. <\/p>\n

772
\n00:47:42,000 –> 00:47:45,840
\nAfter that, we have 62 weeks of
\nwaiting in between the <\/p>\n

773
\n00:47:45,840 –> 00:47:48,680
\ntestaments.
\nAnd if you add our starting <\/p>\n

774
\n00:47:48,680 –> 00:47:52,520
\npoint is going to.
\nBe 458 BC and I’m going to show <\/p>\n

775
\n00:47:52,520 –> 00:47:54,960
\nyou that in a second.
\nWell, let’s do. <\/p>\n

776
\n00:47:54,960 –> 00:48:01,120
\nNow how do we know that the 70
\nweek prophecy starts at 458 BC? <\/p>\n

777
\n00:48:02,120 –> 00:48:05,960
\nDaniel’s told by Gabriel from
\nthe going out of the command to <\/p>\n

778
\n00:48:05,960 –> 00:48:09,520
\nrestore and rebuild. 70 weeks
\nare determined now. <\/p>\n

779
\n00:48:09,520 –> 00:48:11,320
\nHere we go.
\nWe could. <\/p>\n

780
\n00:48:11,320 –> 00:48:13,920
\nThere’s a number of decrees that
\nare given by the Persian kings <\/p>\n

781
\n00:48:13,920 –> 00:48:17,640
\nto go back and actually restore
\nwhich one makes the most sense. <\/p>\n

782
\n00:48:17,880 –> 00:48:22,480
\nAnd I am absolutely 100%
\nconvinced that it’s with Viva <\/p>\n

783
\n00:48:22,880 –> 00:48:25,200
\nthat it’s Ezra Chapter 7.
\nYou check this out. <\/p>\n

784
\n00:48:25,200 –> 00:48:28,960
\nI want to come to Ezra Chapter 7
\nand I’m just speeding up a bit <\/p>\n

785
\n00:48:31,120 –> 00:48:32,560
\nbecause I don’t want to go too
\novertime. <\/p>\n

786
\n00:48:32,560 –> 00:48:35,440
\nBut this, this all comes back to
\nDaniel’s prayer. <\/p>\n

787
\n00:48:35,440 –> 00:48:37,560
\nThis is not completely
\nunrelated. <\/p>\n

788
\n00:48:37,560 –> 00:48:44,600
\nIt is absolutely fantastic.
\nI think we. <\/p>\n

789
\n00:48:44,800 –> 00:48:46,720
\nNeed the AC on.
\nI’m starting to sweat even more.<\/p>\n

790
\n00:48:48,880 –> 00:48:49,200
\nWow.
\nWow. <\/p>\n

791
\n00:48:49,680 –> 00:48:59,240
\nOK Daniel, no Ezra.
\nSorry Ezra Chapter 7 OK he is in<\/p>\n

792
\n00:48:59,240 –> 00:49:03,200
\nthe year or the reign of our
\nXerxes chapter 1. <\/p>\n

793
\n00:49:03,200 –> 00:49:06,080
\nAnd we are looking for a decree
\nto go back and repair and <\/p>\n

794
\n00:49:06,080 –> 00:49:08,160
\nrebuild right?
\nThat’s when the 70 weeks <\/p>\n

795
\n00:49:08,160 –> 00:49:09,560
\nprophecy starts.
\nThat’s what we’re told. <\/p>\n

796
\n00:49:10,000 –> 00:49:11,800
\nSo here we are as there’s seven
\nverse one. <\/p>\n

797
\n00:49:12,200 –> 00:49:16,520
\nIt’s the reign of Arxyxes, King
\nof Persia, we are told on <\/p>\n

798
\n00:49:16,520 –> 00:49:18,000
\nWikipedia.
\nI got some I’m. <\/p>\n

799
\n00:49:18,320 –> 00:49:19,440
\nJust going to pour it on my
\nhead. <\/p>\n

800
\n00:49:22,840 –> 00:49:24,360
\nThanks Jane.
\nNice. <\/p>\n

801
\n00:49:24,840 –> 00:49:27,880
\nOK, we are told by Wikipedia and
\nI’m just going for Wikipedia <\/p>\n

802
\n00:49:27,880 –> 00:49:30,560
\nbecause it’s the common
\nconsensus, although at school I <\/p>\n

803
\n00:49:30,560 –> 00:49:34,200
\ntell you not to use Wikipedia.
\nBut that’s right Wikipedia says <\/p>\n

804
\n00:49:34,240 –> 00:49:39,160
\nArxyx is the first.
\nThis king reigns from 465 to <\/p>\n

805
\n00:49:39,160 –> 00:49:42,840
\n424.
\nEzra is here in his reign and we<\/p>\n

806
\n00:49:42,840 –> 00:49:46,520
\nare told verse 8 of Ezra.
\nEzra came to Jerusalem in the <\/p>\n

807
\n00:49:46,520 –> 00:49:50,600
\n5th Munch which was the 7th year
\nof the king. <\/p>\n

808
\n00:49:51,400 –> 00:49:59,080
\nThat brings us to 458 BC and in
\nthat year Ark Xerxes wrote Ezra <\/p>\n

809
\n00:49:59,080 –> 00:50:03,520
\na letter and he said this verse
\n12 ark Xerxes king of kings, <\/p>\n

810
\n00:50:03,520 –> 00:50:05,960
\nEzra the priest scribe of the
\nlaw of God of heaven, which is <\/p>\n

811
\n00:50:05,960 –> 00:50:09,680
\ncrazy that a Persian king saying
\nthat perfect peace and so so on.<\/p>\n

812
\n00:50:10,240 –> 00:50:13,360
\nLet’s get to the point.
\nI issue a decree that all those <\/p>\n

813
\n00:50:13,360 –> 00:50:15,800
\nof the people of Israel and the
\npriest Levites matter realm who <\/p>\n

814
\n00:50:15,800 –> 00:50:17,680
\nvolunteered to go up to
\nJerusalem, they go with you. <\/p>\n

815
\n00:50:18,040 –> 00:50:20,880
\nNow the really cool thing is
\nArctic Xerxes writes this <\/p>\n

816
\n00:50:20,880 –> 00:50:23,360
\ndecree.
\nThe temple is already underway. <\/p>\n

817
\n00:50:23,360 –> 00:50:27,280
\nBut this decree is special
\nbecause he gives heaps of cash <\/p>\n

818
\n00:50:27,280 –> 00:50:29,720
\nto Ezra.
\nThis is a decree, not just a <\/p>\n

819
\n00:50:29,720 –> 00:50:31,160
\nnice little letter.
\nGo ahead and do it. <\/p>\n

820
\n00:50:31,440 –> 00:50:36,000
\nAnd he says, go back and fire up
\nthe law of God in the temple and<\/p>\n

821
\n00:50:36,000 –> 00:50:38,360
\nin that city.
\nGet it absolutely going. <\/p>\n

822
\n00:50:39,320 –> 00:50:42,560
\nSo when Ezra reflects on this in
\nhis prayer. <\/p>\n

823
\n00:50:43,440 –> 00:50:46,960
\nHe refers to it in verse 9 of
\nChapter 9 and says we’ve been <\/p>\n

824
\n00:50:46,960 –> 00:50:50,160
\ngiven mercy by the kings of
\nPersia to go back and repair and<\/p>\n

825
\n00:50:50,160 –> 00:50:54,560
\nrebuild the young people.
\nI am absolutely convinced this <\/p>\n

826
\n00:50:54,560 –> 00:50:58,360
\nis the date intended by the
\nstart of the 70 week prophecy. <\/p>\n

827
\n00:50:58,720 –> 00:51:03,000
\nIt is Ezra.
\nBeing told by Artaxerxes in 458 <\/p>\n

828
\n00:51:03,000 –> 00:51:08,120
\nBCE to go back and fire up the
\ntemple with the law of God. <\/p>\n

829
\n00:51:08,480 –> 00:51:11,880
\nHe does it in the seventh year
\nas Artaxerxes interestingly <\/p>\n

830
\n00:51:12,000 –> 00:51:14,920
\nsevens.
\nArk Xerxes in the letter sends <\/p>\n

831
\n00:51:14,920 –> 00:51:18,240
\nhim with seven counselors and
\nseven times. <\/p>\n

832
\n00:51:18,360 –> 00:51:24,600
\nArk Xerxes in that letter says
\ngo back to the House of God, 7th<\/p>\n

833
\n00:51:24,600 –> 00:51:28,600
\nyear, 7 counselors, 7 times.
\nHe talks about the House of God <\/p>\n

834
\n00:51:29,400 –> 00:51:33,080
\n70 week prophecy, I think so
\nright now there’s something else<\/p>\n

835
\n00:51:33,080 –> 00:51:38,160
\nthat’s really important.
\nDaniel gets to to Jerusalem in <\/p>\n

836
\n00:51:38,160 –> 00:51:41,840
\nthat year of the 70 week
\nprophecy and he finds it a total<\/p>\n

837
\n00:51:41,840 –> 00:51:45,880
\nmess and he gets down on his
\nknees in Ezra Chapter 9. <\/p>\n

838
\n00:51:45,880 –> 00:51:48,360
\nListen to this.
\nAnd he prays to the God of <\/p>\n

839
\n00:51:48,360 –> 00:51:54,200
\nheaven in Ezra Chapter 9 exactly
\nechoing Daniel’s prayer in <\/p>\n

840
\n00:51:54,200 –> 00:51:57,560
\nChapter 9 just before Daniel got
\nthe 70 week prophecy. <\/p>\n

841
\n00:51:58,960 –> 00:52:01,240
\nAnd do you know what time of day
\nEzra was praying? <\/p>\n

842
\n00:52:02,760 –> 00:52:08,160
\nWe are told he was praying at
\nthe time of the evening <\/p>\n

843
\n00:52:08,160 –> 00:52:12,360
\nsacrifice.
\nThat’s exactly when Daniel <\/p>\n

844
\n00:52:12,440 –> 00:52:16,360
\nreceived the 70 week prophecy.
\nThat’s an Ezra by the way. <\/p>\n

845
\n00:52:16,360 –> 00:52:18,320
\nAll these things I’m going to
\ngive you on a handout a Bible <\/p>\n

846
\n00:52:18,320 –> 00:52:20,960
\ninsert after.
\nSo don’t screw it all down. <\/p>\n

847
\n00:52:20,960 –> 00:52:23,080
\nNow that is fantastic young
\npeople. <\/p>\n

848
\n00:52:23,760 –> 00:52:26,000
\nThis is the start of the 70 week
\nprophecy. <\/p>\n

849
\n00:52:26,760 –> 00:52:29,800
\nThe timing and the theme of
\nEzra’s prayer in that year is <\/p>\n

850
\n00:52:29,800 –> 00:52:33,920
\nidentical to Daniel’s prayer.
\nAnd I can I’ll give you these <\/p>\n

851
\n00:52:33,920 –> 00:52:35,640
\nnotes later.
\nYou can kind of pour over it. <\/p>\n

852
\n00:52:36,560 –> 00:52:41,400
\nEzra 9 is a total echo is of
\nEzra chapter of Daniel Chapter <\/p>\n

853
\n00:52:41,400 –> 00:52:42,640
\n9.
\nHe goes all the way through <\/p>\n

854
\n00:52:42,640 –> 00:52:45,720
\nthat.
\nNow let’s just take back to our <\/p>\n

855
\n00:52:45,720 –> 00:52:51,240
\nlittle thing, right?
\nIf you add on 49 years takes you<\/p>\n

856
\n00:52:51,240 –> 00:52:54,880
\nto 4:00 and 9:00, the start of
\nnothing, OK, all the way through<\/p>\n

857
\n00:52:54,880 –> 00:52:58,000
\nhere.
\nIf you add 434 years takes you <\/p>\n

858
\n00:52:58,000 –> 00:53:03,040
\nto 8026.
\nWhat happened in 8026? <\/p>\n

859
\n00:53:06,160 –> 00:53:11,120
\nWell, it’s well.
\nI’m going to show you, OK? <\/p>\n

860
\n00:53:12,560 –> 00:53:16,840
\nIt’s almost certain that this is
\nwhen Jesus was baptized and <\/p>\n

861
\n00:53:16,840 –> 00:53:20,120
\nstarted his ministry.
\nYou think that actually means <\/p>\n

862
\n00:53:20,520 –> 00:53:26,600
\nthat in this final week, it goes
\nfrom Jesus’s baptism to 8033? <\/p>\n

863
\n00:53:27,280 –> 00:53:30,200
\nWhat happened in 8033?
\nDon’t worry about that yet. <\/p>\n

864
\n00:53:30,480 –> 00:53:34,600
\nWhat happened in the middle of
\nthe week, 3 1\/2 years after <\/p>\n

865
\n00:53:34,640 –> 00:53:37,000
\nJesus’s baptism and ministry?
\nWhat happened? <\/p>\n

866
\n00:53:37,880 –> 00:53:42,520
\nThe Messiah.
\nWas cut off that’s exactly what <\/p>\n

867
\n00:53:42,520 –> 00:53:45,240
\nthe 70 week prophecy said all
\nthe way back in Daniel Chapter 9<\/p>\n

868
\n00:53:45,400 –> 00:53:49,000
\nin the midst of the week he will
\nbe cut off and he will establish<\/p>\n

869
\n00:53:49,040 –> 00:53:54,200
\na covenant for the people.
\nNow you might think was Jesus <\/p>\n

870
\n00:53:54,240 –> 00:53:58,760
\nreally crucified in 8030?
\nLet’s go to Wikipedia right? <\/p>\n

871
\n00:54:00,080 –> 00:54:04,640
\nThink about this young people.
\nI know that sounds sketchy, but <\/p>\n

872
\n00:54:05,480 –> 00:54:08,760
\nif we’re going for the consensus
\nview, no one’s going to no one’s<\/p>\n

873
\n00:54:08,760 –> 00:54:10,560
\ngoing to say everyone’s nailed
\nthe date. <\/p>\n

874
\n00:54:10,560 –> 00:54:12,800
\nDates and chronologies, as you
\nguys know, are kind of tricky <\/p>\n

875
\n00:54:12,800 –> 00:54:14,360
\nand whatever, but let’s just go
\nwith this. <\/p>\n

876
\n00:54:14,600 –> 00:54:18,080
\nScholars have provided estimates
\nof the range from 8030 to 33 AD.<\/p>\n

877
\n00:54:18,280 –> 00:54:22,560
\nHey, we are seriously close.
\nHowever, one expert says the <\/p>\n

878
\n00:54:22,560 –> 00:54:26,080
\nyear 8030 is apparently, in the,
\nin the opinion of the majority <\/p>\n

879
\n00:54:26,080 –> 00:54:29,720
\nof contemporary scholars as
\nwell, far and away the most <\/p>\n

880
\n00:54:29,720 –> 00:54:31,920
\nlikely date of the crucifixion
\nof Jesus. <\/p>\n

881
\n00:54:32,440 –> 00:54:40,160
\nSo 49 years plus 300 and 43 + 3
\n1\/2 takes you right to the year <\/p>\n

882
\n00:54:40,680 –> 00:54:43,600
\nof Jesus crucifixion.
\nObviously that’s what’s <\/p>\n

883
\n00:54:43,600 –> 00:54:45,840
\nintended, young people, there’s
\nno doubt about it. <\/p>\n

884
\n00:54:46,280 –> 00:54:51,200
\nAnd Daniel was being told by the
\nAngel Gabriel, this is <\/p>\n

885
\n00:54:51,200 –> 00:54:55,200
\ncompletely in God’s control.
\nAnd Daniel, if you’re worried <\/p>\n

886
\n00:54:55,200 –> 00:54:58,680
\nabout the sins of your people,
\nyou’ve got to still you’ve just <\/p>\n

887
\n00:54:58,680 –> 00:55:02,720
\nbeen through 70 years of
\ncaptivity, you’ve got another 70<\/p>\n

888
\n00:55:02,720 –> 00:55:08,520
\nsevens to go.
\nUntil the problem of sin is <\/p>\n

889
\n00:55:08,600 –> 00:55:12,120
\ntotally dealt with.
\nThat is awesome. <\/p>\n

890
\n00:55:12,880 –> 00:55:17,720
\nWait, So what happened in 1833?
\nNow before you answer that <\/p>\n

891
\n00:55:17,720 –> 00:55:20,840
\nquestion, what happened in that
\none week? <\/p>\n

892
\n00:55:21,560 –> 00:55:26,320
\nCome back to Daniel Chapter 9 to
\nanswer this question. <\/p>\n

893
\n00:55:26,320 –> 00:55:29,680
\nWe want to know what else Daniel
\nwas told about that week. <\/p>\n

894
\n00:55:29,920 –> 00:55:33,360
\nAre you happy if I just round
\nthis off because the <\/p>\n

895
\n00:55:33,360 –> 00:55:35,400
\ntemperature’s dropping.
\nFeeling a little bit better? <\/p>\n

896
\n00:55:36,000 –> 00:55:36,360
\nYeah.
\nOK. <\/p>\n

897
\n00:55:36,600 –> 00:55:38,800
\nGood.
\nIs that all right, Host? <\/p>\n

898
\n00:55:38,800 –> 00:55:41,040
\nJust a little bit longer.
\nWe’re going to finish that off. <\/p>\n

899
\n00:55:41,040 –> 00:55:41,680
\nYes.
\nThanks, Trev. <\/p>\n

900
\n00:55:41,720 –> 00:55:44,640
\nOK, so here we go.
\nRight. <\/p>\n

901
\n00:55:46,120 –> 00:55:49,760
\nWe are told what’s going to
\nhappen in that final week. <\/p>\n

902
\n00:55:49,920 –> 00:55:52,520
\nRight.
\nDaniel, Chapter 9, verse 27 says<\/p>\n

903
\n00:55:52,520 –> 00:55:53,080
\nthis.
\nReady. <\/p>\n

904
\n00:55:53,080 –> 00:55:55,320
\nCareful reading this.
\nIs what Daniel had to do. <\/p>\n

905
\n00:55:56,560 –> 00:56:00,000
\nThen he shall confirm, and if
\nyou’ve got a little pencil in <\/p>\n

906
\n00:56:00,000 –> 00:56:02,600
\nyour margin or wait, your pencil
\nis probably not in your margin. <\/p>\n

907
\n00:56:02,600 –> 00:56:05,640
\nBut if you’ve got a pencil right
\nin your margin, the word for <\/p>\n

908
\n00:56:05,640 –> 00:56:07,880
\nconfirm in Hebrew is to
\nstrengthen. <\/p>\n

909
\n00:56:09,240 –> 00:56:12,960
\nStrengthen.
\nThe word for confirm is to <\/p>\n

910
\n00:56:12,960 –> 00:56:15,680
\nstrengthen.
\nSo listen to this. <\/p>\n

911
\n00:56:16,320 –> 00:56:22,280
\nHe shall strengthen a covenant
\nwith many for one week. <\/p>\n

912
\n00:56:22,760 –> 00:56:27,360
\nSo what’s happening in this one
\nweek is a strengthening of the <\/p>\n

913
\n00:56:27,360 –> 00:56:31,160
\ncovenant.
\nNow Jesus is baptized. <\/p>\n

914
\n00:56:31,360 –> 00:56:32,920
\nHe starts bringing in that
\ncovenant. <\/p>\n

915
\n00:56:33,120 –> 00:56:37,240
\nHe gets cut off, which confirms
\nthat covenant nails it to the <\/p>\n

916
\n00:56:37,240 –> 00:56:38,680
\ncross.
\nRight? <\/p>\n

917
\n00:56:40,440 –> 00:56:43,720
\n8033.
\nThis is so cool. <\/p>\n

918
\n00:56:45,160 –> 00:56:50,200
\nSome things are sketchy to date
\nin the New Testament, but the <\/p>\n

919
\n00:56:50,200 –> 00:56:57,080
\ndeath of Stephen is almost
\ncertainly 8033 and we can build <\/p>\n

920
\n00:56:57,080 –> 00:57:00,120
\nthat on the timelines and the
\nchronologies of the apostle <\/p>\n

921
\n00:57:00,120 –> 00:57:01,880
\nPaul, which are really accurate
\nto do. <\/p>\n

922
\n00:57:02,440 –> 00:57:07,080
\nNow what on earth does Stephen
\nhave to do with the 70 week <\/p>\n

923
\n00:57:07,080 –> 00:57:10,760
\nprophecy, young people, and how
\nis he the end of the week that <\/p>\n

924
\n00:57:10,760 –> 00:57:12,840
\ngoes about strengthening the new
\ncovenant? <\/p>\n

925
\n00:57:13,880 –> 00:57:18,000
\nWhat did Stephen do?
\nYou guys tell me, I’ll repeat it<\/p>\n

926
\n00:57:18,000 –> 00:57:23,280
\nfor those online.
\nHe was brilliant at looking <\/p>\n

927
\n00:57:23,280 –> 00:57:25,240
\nafter other people.
\nGive me some more. <\/p>\n

928
\n00:57:30,240 –> 00:57:32,040
\nHe prayed for forgiveness for
\nothers. <\/p>\n

929
\n00:57:32,040 –> 00:57:37,280
\nWho did he pray for?
\nForgiveness for those people, <\/p>\n

930
\n00:57:37,280 –> 00:57:39,520
\nthe Jews, Israel.
\nThat’s what Daniel’s doing in <\/p>\n

931
\n00:57:39,520 –> 00:57:40,840
\nDaniel Chapter 9.
\nExcellent. <\/p>\n

932
\n00:57:40,840 –> 00:57:42,720
\nWhat else is significant about
\nStephen? <\/p>\n

933
\n00:57:42,720 –> 00:57:48,920
\nHe wasn’t afraid to stand up for
\nwhat he believed was not afraid <\/p>\n

934
\n00:57:48,920 –> 00:57:50,000
\nto stand up for.
\nWhat he believed good. <\/p>\n

935
\n00:57:52,240 –> 00:57:53,600
\nWhat did he teach?
\nGo to Acts Chapter 7. <\/p>\n

936
\n00:57:54,600 –> 00:57:59,040
\nThis is incredible.
\nOK, Acts Chapter 7. <\/p>\n

937
\n00:57:59,040 –> 00:58:01,200
\nIs this the end of the 70 week
\nprophecy? <\/p>\n

938
\n00:58:01,240 –> 00:58:06,360
\n100 bazillion percent sure.
\nOh no, that’s ridiculous. <\/p>\n

939
\n00:58:06,400 –> 00:58:13,320
\nBut I feel like it’s true.
\nOK, Well, anyway, I want you to <\/p>\n

940
\n00:58:13,320 –> 00:58:15,800
\nget the vibe of this.
\nThis is incredible stuff. <\/p>\n

941
\n00:58:16,080 –> 00:58:18,560
\nThere’s few things that are this
\nexact. <\/p>\n

942
\n00:58:19,560 –> 00:58:25,080
\nStephen stands up and we’re told
\nin Chapter 6, just before <\/p>\n

943
\n00:58:25,360 –> 00:58:29,680
\nChapter 7, we’re told in chapter
\n6 that he was so persuasive that<\/p>\n

944
\n00:58:29,680 –> 00:58:32,880
\npeople could not resist him.
\nThis, this is what this is what <\/p>\n

945
\n00:58:32,880 –> 00:58:35,720
\nhappens with Steven.
\nHe’s so persuasive that people <\/p>\n

946
\n00:58:35,720 –> 00:58:38,560
\ncould not present resist him.
\nAnd do you know what happens in <\/p>\n

947
\n00:58:38,560 –> 00:58:41,000
\nChapter 6?
\nThey get false accusations. <\/p>\n

948
\n00:58:41,040 –> 00:58:41,680
\nListen to this.
\nThis is. <\/p>\n

949
\n00:58:41,680 –> 00:58:44,960
\nBeautiful.
\nThey get false witnesses to rise<\/p>\n

950
\n00:58:44,960 –> 00:58:47,640
\nup against Stephen and accuse
\nhim falsely and do you know what<\/p>\n

951
\n00:58:47,640 –> 00:58:49,440
\nthey say Listen to this verse
\n13. <\/p>\n

952
\n00:58:49,640 –> 00:58:52,960
\nThey set up false witnesses who
\nsaid this introduces his speech.<\/p>\n

953
\n00:58:53,760 –> 00:58:57,360
\nThis man does not cease to speak
\nblasphemous words against this <\/p>\n

954
\n00:58:57,360 –> 00:59:00,080
\nplace.
\nHe focuses the temple just like <\/p>\n

955
\n00:59:00,080 –> 00:59:03,960
\nDaniel and Ezra and the law
\nDaniel, Ezra, for we have heard <\/p>\n

956
\n00:59:03,960 –> 00:59:11,160
\nhim say, listen to this.
\nThis Jesus of Nazareth will <\/p>\n

957
\n00:59:11,160 –> 00:59:15,800
\ndestroy this place, temple and
\nchange the customs which Moses <\/p>\n

958
\n00:59:15,800 –> 00:59:17,520
\ngave us.
\nYou know what’s great young <\/p>\n

959
\n00:59:17,520 –> 00:59:22,360
\npeople?
\nThey had no idea how true their <\/p>\n

960
\n00:59:22,360 –> 00:59:26,800
\nlives were because that’s
\nexactly what Daniel 70 week <\/p>\n

961
\n00:59:26,800 –> 00:59:30,040
\nprophecy said would happen.
\nJesus is going to come and <\/p>\n

962
\n00:59:30,040 –> 00:59:35,680
\ndestroy this place and change
\nthe customs of Moses and the <\/p>\n

963
\n00:59:35,680 –> 00:59:37,840
\nsacrifices and offerings.
\nIt’s awesome. <\/p>\n

964
\n00:59:38,360 –> 00:59:43,120
\nAnd in comes Stephen and he
\ngives this amazing speech that <\/p>\n

965
\n00:59:43,120 –> 00:59:47,120
\nthe Jews need to hear.
\nThe temple is over. <\/p>\n

966
\n00:59:47,280 –> 00:59:51,040
\nGod does not dwell in places
\nmade by hands. <\/p>\n

967
\n00:59:51,280 –> 00:59:55,400
\nThe temple system is gone.
\nThere’s a new covenant in place.<\/p>\n

968
\n00:59:55,680 –> 00:59:57,480
\nAnd you know what’s fantastic?
\nYoung people? <\/p>\n

969
\n00:59:57,760 –> 01:00:02,360
\nStephen, at the end of his
\nspeech, sees heaven open and he <\/p>\n

970
\n01:00:02,360 –> 01:00:07,080
\nis the very first person.
\nTo see the risen Lord Jesus <\/p>\n

971
\n01:00:07,200 –> 01:00:11,800
\nstanding on the right hand of
\nGod as the Son of God in heaven,<\/p>\n

972
\n01:00:11,800 –> 01:00:15,200
\nand he sees him in his full
\nmanifestation of glory. <\/p>\n

973
\n01:00:15,480 –> 01:00:19,400
\nThis is a pivotal, monumental
\nmoment for the for the preaching<\/p>\n

974
\n01:00:19,400 –> 01:00:22,920
\nof the gospel in the covenant
\nand the Jews could not resist <\/p>\n

975
\n01:00:22,920 –> 01:00:25,640
\nhis teaching.
\nThis nails it in the coffin. <\/p>\n

976
\n01:00:26,200 –> 01:00:29,520
\nThe the law of Moses and the
\ntemple are gone. <\/p>\n

977
\n01:00:30,000 –> 01:00:33,520
\nIt’s all through Christ.
\nSins will not be covered to the <\/p>\n

978
\n01:00:33,520 –> 01:00:37,240
\ntemple and sacrifices.
\nThey will be covered by the Lord<\/p>\n

979
\n01:00:37,240 –> 01:00:39,720
\nJesus Christ.
\nAnd you know, Stephen speaks <\/p>\n

980
\n01:00:39,720 –> 01:00:43,880
\ndirectly to the Lord and asks
\nthe Lord to forgive the people <\/p>\n

981
\n01:00:43,880 –> 01:00:47,600
\nfor their sins in the spirit of
\nDaniel. <\/p>\n

982
\n01:00:47,960 –> 01:00:50,600
\nBut now it can happen because of
\nthe new covenant. <\/p>\n

983
\n01:00:51,160 –> 01:00:55,520
\nSo this is 8070.
\nRight after this covenant is <\/p>\n

984
\n01:00:55,520 –> 01:00:58,040
\nconfirmed for one week, we’re
\ntold that the desolator will <\/p>\n

985
\n01:00:58,040 –> 01:01:01,360
\ncome, That’s Rome, and he’s
\ngoing to destroy Jerusalem. <\/p>\n

986
\n01:01:02,000 –> 01:01:04,120
\nThe final thing I want you to
\njust take away from this in <\/p>\n

987
\n01:01:04,120 –> 01:01:07,640
\nterms of the prophecy, young
\npeople, is we are told that the <\/p>\n

988
\n01:01:07,640 –> 01:01:12,800
\npeople who are going to come to
\ndestroy Jerusalem are the people<\/p>\n

989
\n01:01:12,800 –> 01:01:15,040
\nof the Prince.
\nQuickly look at Daniel Chapter <\/p>\n

990
\n01:01:15,040 –> 01:01:18,400
\n9.
\nGo back to verse 26. <\/p>\n

991
\n01:01:22,480 –> 01:01:24,360
\nI just want you to be impressed
\nby this. <\/p>\n

992
\n01:01:26,120 –> 01:01:28,120
\nVerse 26 says the Messiah is
\ngoing to be cut. <\/p>\n

993
\n01:01:28,120 –> 01:01:31,080
\nOff.
\nAnd then he says the people of <\/p>\n

994
\n01:01:31,080 –> 01:01:34,560
\nthis Prince will come and
\ndestroy the city in the <\/p>\n

995
\n01:01:34,560 –> 01:01:38,200
\nsanctuary that happened in 8070.
\nWho’s the Prince? <\/p>\n

996
\n01:01:39,840 –> 01:01:42,120
\nJesus.
\nWho’s the people of the Prince <\/p>\n

997
\n01:01:43,520 –> 01:01:46,240
\nin Daniel Chapter 9?
\nPardon. <\/p>\n

998
\n01:01:46,920 –> 01:01:51,880
\nNo, because no.
\nGood guess, but no, because. <\/p>\n

999
\n01:01:52,800 –> 01:01:56,120
\nJesus is coming to destroy with
\nthe people. <\/p>\n

1000
\n01:01:56,280 –> 01:01:59,120
\nHe’s got people with him to come
\nand destroy the temple in the <\/p>\n

1001
\n01:01:59,120 –> 01:02:01,280
\nJewish nation.
\nThe answer to the the question <\/p>\n

1002
\n01:02:01,280 –> 01:02:04,720
\nthere is that the people of the
\nPrince are the Roman legions, <\/p>\n

1003
\n01:02:05,440 –> 01:02:08,880
\nand they come sweeping in and
\nabsolutely destroy that city. <\/p>\n

1004
\n01:02:09,880 –> 01:02:12,360
\nDo you know who’s controlling
\nthe Roman legions and 8070 young<\/p>\n

1005
\n01:02:12,360 –> 01:02:13,920
\npeople?
\nIt’s Jesus. <\/p>\n

1006
\n01:02:14,640 –> 01:02:17,800
\nHe’s been given all power and
\nauthority, and finally he’s been<\/p>\n

1007
\n01:02:17,800 –> 01:02:20,240
\ncut off.
\nHe’s confirmed the covenant, and<\/p>\n

1008
\n01:02:20,240 –> 01:02:23,160
\nlater he comes in 8070 and
\nobliterates the temple and the <\/p>\n

1009
\n01:02:23,160 –> 01:02:28,720
\nsacrificial system, and he uses
\nhis special people, Rome, the <\/p>\n

1010
\n01:02:28,720 –> 01:02:30,760
\nRoman legions.
\nYou can prove that from the New <\/p>\n

1011
\n01:02:30,760 –> 01:02:33,040
\nTestament, multiple different
\nways. <\/p>\n

1012
\n01:02:33,560 –> 01:02:37,600
\nJesus was in charge of that
\nbattle and the Roman legions <\/p>\n

1013
\n01:02:37,600 –> 01:02:42,200
\nwere his people to execute
\njudgement on the Mosaic system <\/p>\n

1014
\n01:02:42,320 –> 01:02:48,600
\nset up by the Jewish leaders.
\nSo if you go back to the six <\/p>\n

1015
\n01:02:48,600 –> 01:02:52,160
\nthings, young people just
\nsquidge through them. <\/p>\n

1016
\n01:02:52,440 –> 01:02:54,120
\nWhat was the purpose of the
\nprophecy? <\/p>\n

1017
\n01:02:54,720 –> 01:02:57,680
\nTo end the transgression?
\nThis is a fulling up of the <\/p>\n

1018
\n01:02:57,680 –> 01:03:03,360
\nJewish sins after. 490 years,
\nThe reign of sin is over. <\/p>\n

1019
\n01:03:03,360 –> 01:03:07,520
\nJesus brings in absolute victory
\nover sin in the midst of the <\/p>\n

1020
\n01:03:07,520 –> 01:03:09,640
\nweek.
\nThere’s an end of sins from the <\/p>\n

1021
\n01:03:09,640 –> 01:03:11,160
\n70 week prophecy.
\nYes. <\/p>\n

1022
\n01:03:11,440 –> 01:03:14,040
\nIt deals with it.
\nSin offerings are over if you <\/p>\n

1023
\n01:03:14,040 –> 01:03:17,640
\ntake it in that sense, as well
\nas sins in general obliterated <\/p>\n

1024
\n01:03:18,160 –> 01:03:21,920
\nby the Messiah.
\nYou know what’s so important? <\/p>\n

1025
\n01:03:23,800 –> 01:03:29,000
\nJesus doesn’t only destroy the
\ntemple and he doesn’t later just<\/p>\n

1026
\n01:03:29,000 –> 01:03:30,960
\ndestroy the Roman army in
\nRevelation. <\/p>\n

1027
\n01:03:32,080 –> 01:03:33,720
\nHe destroys sin.
\nYoung people. <\/p>\n

1028
\n01:03:33,920 –> 01:03:35,840
\nThat’s the point of the 70 week
\nprophecy. <\/p>\n

1029
\n01:03:36,080 –> 01:03:39,160
\nThis Messiah, the Prince
\ndestroys sin. <\/p>\n

1030
\n01:03:39,480 –> 01:03:43,600
\nHe’s got it, He takes control of
\nit, and that makes <\/p>\n

1031
\n01:03:43,600 –> 01:03:48,680
\nreconciliation or covering for
\nthe people #4 he brings in an <\/p>\n

1032
\n01:03:48,680 –> 01:03:50,760
\nage of everlasting righteousness
\nthrough faith. <\/p>\n

1033
\n01:03:50,760 –> 01:03:55,880
\nThat’s the 490 years he’s sealed
\nup the vision and the prophecy <\/p>\n

1034
\n01:03:55,880 –> 01:03:59,000
\nof the prophet.
\nChrist did that, and he’s <\/p>\n

1035
\n01:03:59,000 –> 01:04:03,160
\nanointed as the most holy.
\nJesus is the most holy, no <\/p>\n

1036
\n01:04:03,160 –> 01:04:06,560
\nlonger needing a temple.
\nSo here’s the point of the <\/p>\n

1037
\n01:04:06,560 –> 01:04:11,200
\nprophecy, young people.
\nWhen Daniel was looking at it, <\/p>\n

1038
\n01:04:11,440 –> 01:04:16,400
\nhe’d be assured that God was in
\ncontrol of everything and <\/p>\n

1039
\n01:04:16,400 –> 01:04:22,680
\nthere’s certain hope for sin and
\nour position 2021 looking back <\/p>\n

1040
\n01:04:22,680 –> 01:04:26,720
\nat the 70 week prophecy, we can
\nbe absolutely convinced that God<\/p>\n

1041
\n01:04:26,720 –> 01:04:29,080
\nis in control.
\nHis word is true. <\/p>\n

1042
\n01:04:29,360 –> 01:04:32,720
\nBut not only that, the real
\npicture of the 70 week prophecy <\/p>\n

1043
\n01:04:32,720 –> 01:04:37,280
\nin Daniel’s prayer.
\nThis is the answer to sin. <\/p>\n

1044
\n01:04:38,240 –> 01:04:40,480
\nSo why do we not confess our sin
\nto God? <\/p>\n

1045
\n01:04:40,480 –> 01:04:43,840
\nWhy are we holding on to it?
\nWhy are we thinking we can get <\/p>\n

1046
\n01:04:43,840 –> 01:04:45,720
\nover ourselves?
\nYoung people, it’s time to get <\/p>\n

1047
\n01:04:45,720 –> 01:04:49,920
\ndown on our knees and like
\nDaniel, Ezra and Stephen, <\/p>\n

1048
\n01:04:50,320 –> 01:04:53,200
\nconfess our sins to God, Give
\nthem to him. <\/p>\n

1049
\n01:04:53,440 –> 01:04:57,480
\nAnd that’s the first step to
\ndealing with sin. <\/p>\n

1050
\n01:04:59,120 –> 01:05:02,840
\nThat is, give them to God.
\nSo here’s the message young <\/p>\n

1051
\n01:05:02,840 –> 01:05:05,280
\npeople, I want you to be
\nencouraged by the 70 week <\/p>\n

1052
\n01:05:05,280 –> 01:05:08,440
\nprophecy, the spirit of Daniel
\nand our need to confess our sins<\/p>\n

1053
\n01:05:08,440 –> 01:05:11,880
\nto God.
\nDaniel was told the real <\/p>\n

1054
\n01:05:11,880 –> 01:05:14,360
\nsolution to sin is not going to
\nbe the end of 70 years of <\/p>\n

1055
\n01:05:14,360 –> 01:05:18,280
\ncaptivity.
\nIt’s going to be the end of. 490<\/p>\n

1056
\n01:05:18,480 –> 01:05:23,360
\nyears when a new covenant was in
\nplace, when sin is eradicated <\/p>\n

1057
