\n00:00:03,880 –> 00:00:05,360
\nWelcome to good Chris Adelphian
\ntalks. <\/p>\n

2
\n00:00:05,400 –> 00:00:06,960
\nI’m Levi.

\n00:00:09,320 –> 00:00:11,600
\njoining us this week on this
\npodcast. <\/p>\n

5
\n00:00:11,600 –> 00:00:14,960
\nWe select one talk a week to
\nhelp us get the Bible in our <\/p>\n

6
\n00:00:14,960 –> 00:00:18,680
\nDaily News.
\nFeed Each week we post a talk <\/p>\n

7
\n00:00:18,680 –> 00:00:21,400
\nthat we previewed from
\nsuggestions sent in by listeners<\/p>\n

8
\n00:00:21,400 –> 00:00:24,600
\nfrom around the world.
\nThen we record a short intro <\/p>\n

9
\n00:00:24,600 –> 00:00:28,040
\nbeforehand as a personalized
\nrecommendation to you on why we <\/p>\n

10
\n00:00:28,040 –> 00:00:31,000
\nare sharing the talk.
\nAnd now let’s talk more about <\/p>\n

11
\n00:00:31,000 –> 00:00:46,190
\nthis week’s talk.
\nThis week’s class is the 5th <\/p>\n

12
\n00:00:46,190 –> 00:00:49,270
\nclass given by brother HP
\nMansfield at Idlewild Battle <\/p>\n

13
\n00:00:49,270 –> 00:00:53,710
\nSchool in 1982.
\nThe title is Enoch’s Witness. <\/p>\n

14
\n00:00:54,350 –> 00:00:56,950
\nI listened to most of this
\nseries and we will post it on <\/p>\n

15
\n00:00:56,950 –> 00:01:00,870
\nthe extended podcast.
\nThat series title is Before the <\/p>\n

16
\n00:01:00,870 –> 00:01:04,200
\nDeluge.
\nIt was a really a fun lesson <\/p>\n

17
\n00:01:04,560 –> 00:01:07,840
\nkind of tough at points.
\nBrother Mansfield is very <\/p>\n

18
\n00:01:07,840 –> 00:01:10,560
\nnegative about the state of the
\nworld throughout the class as <\/p>\n

19
\n00:01:10,560 –> 00:01:12,840
\nhe.
\nYou know, it’s a mindset I can <\/p>\n

20
\n00:01:12,840 –> 00:01:16,800
\nunderstand even especially
\ntoday, but it it did feel <\/p>\n

21
\n00:01:16,800 –> 00:01:21,320
\nrepetitive through the first few
\nclasses just how much of a kind <\/p>\n

22
\n00:01:21,320 –> 00:01:25,280
\nof repeating the point that, you
\nknow, the the world is in a <\/p>\n

23
\n00:01:25,280 –> 00:01:27,800
\nterrible place and the flood was
\nneeded. <\/p>\n

24
\n00:01:28,080 –> 00:01:30,720
\nMan was awful.
\nAnd so change was coming to the <\/p>\n

25
\n00:01:30,720 –> 00:01:32,480
\nworld.
\nAnd he makes the point <\/p>\n

26
\n00:01:32,600 –> 00:01:34,920
\nrepeatedly in the earlier
\nclasses and then a lot in this <\/p>\n

27
\n00:01:34,920 –> 00:01:40,280
\nclass, class 5 here that that
\nour, you know, our current state<\/p>\n

28
\n00:01:40,400 –> 00:01:43,920
\nof the world is really the same
\nthat we are nearing the end of <\/p>\n

29
\n00:01:43,920 –> 00:01:47,200
\nthe return of Christ in which he
\nkind of, you know, uses as a <\/p>\n

30
\n00:01:47,200 –> 00:01:49,280
\nsymbol of the flood, you know,
\ncomparing it to Armageddon. <\/p>\n

31
\n00:01:49,680 –> 00:01:51,280
\nAnd that’s the encouraging part
\nabout this class. <\/p>\n

32
\n00:01:51,280 –> 00:01:55,320
\nIs it kind of he he he kind of
\nexplains the background to <\/p>\n

33
\n00:01:55,360 –> 00:01:58,520
\nEnoch.
\nEnoch’s translation does a lot <\/p>\n

34
\n00:01:58,520 –> 00:02:02,000
\nof interesting work on the
\nmeaning of some of the names in <\/p>\n

35
\n00:02:02,000 –> 00:02:05,400
\nthe Old Testament.
\nSo it’s all all really, really <\/p>\n

36
\n00:02:05,400 –> 00:02:08,919
\neasy to listen to.
\nHe does have AI think a unique <\/p>\n

37
\n00:02:08,919 –> 00:02:10,800
\nstyle.
\nI mean it does feel like yelling<\/p>\n

38
\n00:02:10,800 –> 00:02:12,680
\nsometimes.
\nHe doesn’t really change his the<\/p>\n

39
\n00:02:12,680 –> 00:02:16,440
\ntone that often, but but I found
\nthis really easy to listen to in<\/p>\n

40
\n00:02:16,440 –> 00:02:19,200
\nthis class, particularly
\nencouraging. <\/p>\n

41
\n00:02:19,960 –> 00:02:26,040
\nIdle 1982 is legendary because
\nthe speakers were HP Mansfield, <\/p>\n

42
\n00:02:26,040 –> 00:02:29,960
\nHarry Tennant, and Bob Lloyd.
\nI was not in attendance. <\/p>\n

43
\n00:02:29,960 –> 00:02:31,840
\nI wasn’t born yet.
\nMy parents got married that <\/p>\n

44
\n00:02:31,840 –> 00:02:33,640
\nyear.
\nThat’s not even true. <\/p>\n

45
\n00:02:33,640 –> 00:02:35,600
\nThey got they met that year,
\nthey married, they got married a<\/p>\n

46
\n00:02:35,600 –> 00:02:38,800
\ncouple years later.
\nBut it’s a really neat kind of <\/p>\n

47
\n00:02:38,800 –> 00:02:41,360
\nneat time to think back on.
\nActually, I thought about <\/p>\n

48
\n00:02:41,360 –> 00:02:44,480
\nincluding a clip from Class 2
\nwhere Brother Mansfield spends a<\/p>\n

49
\n00:02:44,480 –> 00:02:47,120
\nwhile talking about President
\nReagan and how many problems <\/p>\n

50
\n00:02:47,120 –> 00:02:48,640
\nPresident Reagan has in the
\ncountry. <\/p>\n

51
\n00:02:49,240 –> 00:02:52,000
\nAnd I thought you could just
\nswap out the name of the current<\/p>\n

52
\n00:02:52,000 –> 00:02:54,480
\npresident and the point would
\nhave been the same. <\/p>\n

53
\n00:02:55,360 –> 00:02:59,360
\nSo we very interesting and and
\nfun less and really glad to <\/p>\n

54
\n00:02:59,360 –> 00:03:02,400
\nshare it on the podcast.
\nThanks to Chris for digitizing <\/p>\n

55
\n00:03:02,400 –> 00:03:06,360
\nthese tapes in this series.
\nSo this is I I pulled this from <\/p>\n

56
\n00:03:06,360 –> 00:03:09,800
\nChris self in Bible talks.
\nBrother Chris Atwood uploaded it<\/p>\n

57
\n00:03:11,120 –> 00:03:14,280
\na couple months ago.
\nSo these are kind of new to the <\/p>\n

58
\n00:03:14,720 –> 00:03:17,080
\nto the world.
\nAnd so it’s been really great. <\/p>\n

59
\n00:03:17,720 –> 00:03:20,240
\nI’ve been really thankful to
\nChris for all the work he’s done<\/p>\n

60
\n00:03:20,240 –> 00:03:25,040
\nin digitizing so many tapes and
\npreserving so much of our, of <\/p>\n

61
\n00:03:25,040 –> 00:03:26,360
\nour heritage as
\nChristadelphians. <\/p>\n

62
\n00:03:27,280 –> 00:03:30,400
\nSo if you do know of any tape
\nlibraries or any tape <\/p>\n

63
\n00:03:30,600 –> 00:03:33,960
\ncollections, Chris has really
\nwe, we’ve, we’ve done some work <\/p>\n

64
\n00:03:33,960 –> 00:03:38,320
\nin arranging kind of storage
\nspace and he’s really set up to <\/p>\n

65
\n00:03:38,320 –> 00:03:41,480
\ndigitize tapes.
\nYou know, it helps us feed, feed<\/p>\n

66
\n00:03:41,480 –> 00:03:44,240
\nthe podcast.
\nSo thanks again to Chris. <\/p>\n

67
\n00:03:44,720 –> 00:03:49,920
\nHere is Class 5 from before the
\ndailies by HP Mansfield, Enoch’s<\/p>\n

68
\n00:03:49,920 –> 00:03:52,120
\nwitness.
\nBut dear brother and sisters, <\/p>\n

69
\n00:03:52,120 –> 00:03:56,520
\nthis is Odwall 1982.
\nBrother HP Mansfield will now <\/p>\n

70
\n00:03:56,520 –> 00:04:00,600
\ncontinue with his studies.
\nHe will present his fifth <\/p>\n

71
\n00:04:00,720 –> 00:04:03,200
\naddress on the subject before
\nthe deluge. <\/p>\n

72
\n00:04:03,480 –> 00:04:07,920
\nAnd so I would invite him to
\naddress us to the theme, Enoch’s<\/p>\n

73
\n00:04:07,920 –> 00:04:09,560
\nWitness.
\nBrother Mansfield. <\/p>\n

74
\n00:04:15,160 –> 00:04:19,760
\nMy dear brethren and sisters in
\nChrist Jesus, yesterday we <\/p>\n

75
\n00:04:19,760 –> 00:04:24,320
\nintroduced the 5th chapter of
\nGenesis and to the book of the <\/p>\n

76
\n00:04:24,320 –> 00:04:28,880
\ngenerations of Adam.
\nWe planted out a reoccurring <\/p>\n

77
\n00:04:28,880 –> 00:04:32,240
\ntheme of that chapter is the
\nstatement. <\/p>\n

78
\n00:04:32,240 –> 00:04:36,680
\nAnd he died.
\nAnd despite the long ages of the<\/p>\n

79
\n00:04:36,680 –> 00:04:41,760
\nmen that lived at the time,
\ninevitably death was their <\/p>\n

80
\n00:04:41,760 –> 00:04:47,200
\ndestiny and he died.
\nWe also find that that <\/p>\n

81
\n00:04:47,200 –> 00:04:51,400
\nparticular chapter that there is
\noutline the people that came in <\/p>\n

82
\n00:04:51,400 –> 00:04:55,560
\nthe line of Seth.
\nAnd these, the very names of <\/p>\n

83
\n00:04:55,560 –> 00:04:59,040
\nthese people are an index of the
\nstate of the conditions of that <\/p>\n

84
\n00:04:59,040 –> 00:05:03,600
\nparticular time.
\nI submit in this line, of <\/p>\n

85
\n00:05:03,600 –> 00:05:07,240
\ncourse, you have the lines of
\nthe sons of God really <\/p>\n

86
\n00:05:07,240 –> 00:05:09,640
\nconstituting the ecclesia of
\nthat age. <\/p>\n

87
\n00:05:10,760 –> 00:05:13,880
\nWhilst the word Seth means
\nappointed, the name of his son <\/p>\n

88
\n00:05:13,880 –> 00:05:17,640
\nInosh means.
\nThat would just wink and. <\/p>\n

89
\n00:05:17,640 –> 00:05:21,080
\nEvidently A decline soon, said
\nhe, in as far as the ecclesia. <\/p>\n

90
\n00:05:21,080 –> 00:05:25,640
\nOf God is.
\nConcerned, Enoch Enos named his <\/p>\n

91
\n00:05:25,640 –> 00:05:31,560
\nson Canaan after Canaan of all
\npeople, and so we can see a <\/p>\n

92
\n00:05:31,560 –> 00:05:36,160
\nfurther decline.
\nBut Canaan’s son Malalil <\/p>\n

93
\n00:05:36,400 –> 00:05:42,360
\nsignifies praise God, and
\nevidently there was a revival at<\/p>\n

94
\n00:05:42,360 –> 00:05:45,880
\nthat time.
\nAnd we pointed out yesterday <\/p>\n

95
\n00:05:45,880 –> 00:05:49,320
\nthat the symbol in the Bible of
\nthe ecclesia is the moon, and <\/p>\n

96
\n00:05:49,320 –> 00:05:51,640
\nthe moon is always waxing and
\nwaning. <\/p>\n

97
\n00:05:52,160 –> 00:05:55,880
\nSo are ecclesias.
\nAnd there’s comfort and mourning<\/p>\n

98
\n00:05:55,880 –> 00:05:58,720
\nin that.
\nBecause when things are going <\/p>\n

99
\n00:05:58,720 –> 00:06:03,680
\nvery well, then we imagine that
\nthe moon is that it’s full and <\/p>\n

100
\n00:06:03,680 –> 00:06:07,360
\nit can decline.
\nI’m rather fearful when brethren<\/p>\n

101
\n00:06:07,360 –> 00:06:09,880
\ncome to me and say things are
\ngoing very well. <\/p>\n

102
\n00:06:09,880 –> 00:06:14,480
\nI remember the words of Christ
\nof the Laodiceans quite <\/p>\n

103
\n00:06:14,480 –> 00:06:16,800
\nfrequently in Australia at this
\npresent moment. <\/p>\n

104
\n00:06:16,800 –> 00:06:19,160
\nI have heard them say things are
\ngoing very well. <\/p>\n

105
\n00:06:19,920 –> 00:06:22,720
\nI heard that recently from a
\nbrother in a certain ecclesia in<\/p>\n

106
\n00:06:22,720 –> 00:06:25,320
\nSouth Australia.
\nThings are going very well. <\/p>\n

107
\n00:06:25,320 –> 00:06:28,800
\nHe told me at the present moment
\nthey’re not going very well with<\/p>\n

108
\n00:06:28,800 –> 00:06:33,040
\nthat eclesia, and there’s a need
\nfor very careful supervision of <\/p>\n

109
\n00:06:33,040 –> 00:06:37,480
\nthat Eclesia as they know and as
\nthey’re working on now, in order<\/p>\n

110
\n00:06:37,480 –> 00:06:42,160
\nthat it might be a revive, that
\nthere might be a revival there. <\/p>\n

111
\n00:06:42,640 –> 00:06:46,840
\nSo you see in the line of men
\nfrom the South onwards, you have<\/p>\n

112
\n00:06:46,840 –> 00:06:50,520
\na decline and you have a revival
\nand so forth. <\/p>\n

113
\n00:06:50,840 –> 00:06:53,240
\nAnd it’s really not the history
\nof an ecclesia. <\/p>\n

114
\n00:06:53,800 –> 00:06:58,320
\nWhen you come, for example, to
\nMallaliel, his name means praise<\/p>\n

115
\n00:06:58,320 –> 00:07:00,200
\nGod.
\nAnd I am sure that if there’s an<\/p>\n

116
\n00:07:00,200 –> 00:07:04,000
\nindex at the time when there was
\na revival among the sons of God,<\/p>\n

117
\n00:07:04,360 –> 00:07:09,120
\nbut his son was called Jared,
\nwhich means the decliner, and <\/p>\n

118
\n00:07:09,120 –> 00:07:11,520
\nevidently there was another
\ndecline there. <\/p>\n

119
\n00:07:11,920 –> 00:07:15,440
\nAnd so things are not going very
\nwell with the sons of God <\/p>\n

120
\n00:07:15,640 –> 00:07:19,480
\nleaving to leading to the
\napostasy of the 6th chapter of <\/p>\n

121
\n00:07:19,480 –> 00:07:22,040
\nGenesis.
\nWe read in this chapter <\/p>\n

122
\n00:07:22,040 –> 00:07:26,240
\nconcerning the death of Adam and
\nit’s very interesting to find <\/p>\n

123
\n00:07:26,240 –> 00:07:31,400
\nout that Adam died around about
\nthe time when Lamech the Father.<\/p>\n

124
\n00:07:31,400 –> 00:07:37,840
\nOf Noah was born.
\nSo Adam lasted the long epoch of<\/p>\n

125
\n00:07:37,840 –> 00:07:43,320
\ntime to see the fruits of his
\nown disobedience manifested <\/p>\n

126
\n00:07:43,320 –> 00:07:47,280
\namong the sons of God.
\nHe had the distressing <\/p>\n

127
\n00:07:47,280 –> 00:07:51,680
\nexperience of seeing all that
\nhad happened during those epoch <\/p>\n

128
\n00:07:51,680 –> 00:07:56,120
\nof time, the murder of his own
\nson, the decline in the ecclesia<\/p>\n

129
\n00:07:56,120 –> 00:07:59,640
\namong the sons of God, the
\nvarying fortunes that took place<\/p>\n

130
\n00:07:59,640 –> 00:08:02,120
\nthere until at last death
\nclaims. <\/p>\n

131
\n00:08:03,440 –> 00:08:07,960
\nHe died about 50-7 years before
\nEnoch was translated that he <\/p>\n

132
\n00:08:07,960 –> 00:08:11,120
\nshould not see death.
\nAnd it’s almost as though there <\/p>\n

133
\n00:08:11,120 –> 00:08:15,240
\nwas a choice set before the sons
\nof God at that particular time. <\/p>\n

134
\n00:08:15,440 –> 00:08:19,640
\nThey can follow Adam to death or
\nthey can follow Enoch and his <\/p>\n

135
\n00:08:19,640 –> 00:08:24,160
\nexample to life.
\nThere was that anyway in the <\/p>\n

136
\n00:08:24,160 –> 00:08:27,840
\nfact that he lived for such a
\nlong period of time so that he <\/p>\n

137
\n00:08:27,840 –> 00:08:32,440
\nwas able to hear the voice of
\nLamac and the song of Lamac and <\/p>\n

138
\n00:08:32,440 –> 00:08:36,120
\nthe situation that was developed
\nin the family of Lamac, the <\/p>\n

139
\n00:08:36,159 –> 00:08:40,559
\narrogance and the power that he
\nmanifested in supporting the <\/p>\n

140
\n00:08:40,559 –> 00:08:44,600
\nthings of flesh.
\nAnd he also saw the witness of <\/p>\n

141
\n00:08:44,600 –> 00:08:48,080
\nanother descendant of his by
\nname of Enoch. <\/p>\n

142
\n00:08:49,240 –> 00:08:53,160
\nNow let us remember again what
\nhappened as far as Lamac was <\/p>\n

143
\n00:08:53,160 –> 00:08:57,680
\nconcerned, because we see in
\nthat a foreshadowing of the <\/p>\n

144
\n00:08:57,680 –> 00:09:01,880
\nstate of life about us.
\nLamac was noted for Belugnamy, <\/p>\n

145
\n00:09:02,360 –> 00:09:06,720
\nhis first son for Prophet, his
\nsecond son for pleasure, his <\/p>\n

146
\n00:09:06,720 –> 00:09:10,840
\nthird son for Tubal came for
\npower and his daughter for <\/p>\n

147
\n00:09:10,840 –> 00:09:14,280
\npermissiveness.
\nThere was the empire of Lamech <\/p>\n

148
\n00:09:14,280 –> 00:09:16,320
\nand all the power of Lamech at
\nthat time. <\/p>\n

149
\n00:09:17,120 –> 00:09:21,360
\nHis son was a commercial genius.
\nAnother son exercised power. <\/p>\n

150
\n00:09:21,760 –> 00:09:24,360
\nThere was pleasure.
\nEverything was catered for as <\/p>\n

151
\n00:09:24,360 –> 00:09:28,480
\nfar as the flesh is concerned,
\nand as he surveyed his empire at<\/p>\n

152
\n00:09:28,480 –> 00:09:31,360
\nthat particular time and he
\ncould see no one that could <\/p>\n

153
\n00:09:31,360 –> 00:09:36,760
\nmatch him anywhere.
\nWith blatant arrogance, Lamac <\/p>\n

154
\n00:09:36,760 –> 00:09:42,520
\ncomposed that song that he gave
\nto his wives and doubtless his <\/p>\n

155
\n00:09:42,520 –> 00:09:47,800
\nson put to music.
\nI will slay a man if he wounds <\/p>\n

156
\n00:09:47,800 –> 00:09:51,280
\nme.
\nI will murder anyone or kill <\/p>\n

157
\n00:09:51,280 –> 00:09:54,360
\nanyone or destroy anyone if I am
\nattacked. <\/p>\n

158
\n00:09:55,440 –> 00:10:01,760
\nIf pain is avenged 7 times, I
\nwill avenge myself. 70 * 7. <\/p>\n

159
\n00:10:02,280 –> 00:10:05,600
\nI, Lamac, do not need God to
\npredict me. <\/p>\n

160
\n00:10:05,880 –> 00:10:11,640
\nI have the power to do it myself
\nand I will do it just 70 * 7. <\/p>\n

161
\n00:10:12,200 –> 00:10:17,520
\nI Lamac have spoken.
\nAnd, you know, that was the song<\/p>\n

162
\n00:10:17,520 –> 00:10:20,760
\nthat he composed and the
\nattitude of the world at that <\/p>\n

163
\n00:10:20,760 –> 00:10:22,840
\nparticular time as far as
\nthey’re concerned. <\/p>\n

164
\n00:10:23,120 –> 00:10:26,000
\nThat brethren and sisters, it’s
\nthe song of the present world <\/p>\n

165
\n00:10:26,000 –> 00:10:28,520
\ntoday.
\nAnd we see in Lamech and he <\/p>\n

166
\n00:10:28,520 –> 00:10:31,040
\nneeds family and all that was
\nestablished there, a <\/p>\n

167
\n00:10:31,040 –> 00:10:33,200
\nforeshadowing of what we see in
\nthe earth today. <\/p>\n

168
\n00:10:33,720 –> 00:10:35,840
\nAnd it’s a challenge, you know,
\nto the truth itself. <\/p>\n

169
\n00:10:36,400 –> 00:10:39,800
\nBecause the very environment, as
\nI have tried to stress that is <\/p>\n

170
\n00:10:39,800 –> 00:10:44,120
\nabout us at this time is that
\nvery environment. <\/p>\n

171
\n00:10:44,560 –> 00:10:48,800
\nIt it comprises a danger that
\ncan undermine the truth itself. <\/p>\n

172
\n00:10:49,200 –> 00:10:53,560
\nI see it on all sides.
\nI see it in my own country and I<\/p>\n

173
\n00:10:53,560 –> 00:10:55,280
\nsee it in all parts of the
\nworld. <\/p>\n

174
\n00:10:56,360 –> 00:10:58,960
\nAnd the truth can be undermined
\nwith that sort of thing. <\/p>\n

175
\n00:10:59,880 –> 00:11:02,720
\nAnd there was a very, very
\ndefinite and determined <\/p>\n

176
\n00:11:02,880 –> 00:11:04,680
\ndeclaration by Leymac as to
\nwhat. <\/p>\n

177
\n00:11:04,680 –> 00:11:08,400
\nHe would do.
\nIf anyone stood in his path now,<\/p>\n

178
\n00:11:08,400 –> 00:11:12,360
\na man did stand in his path.
\nA man did stand up to oppose <\/p>\n

179
\n00:11:12,360 –> 00:11:14,480
\nhim.
\nAnd he witnessed against Lamac <\/p>\n

180
\n00:11:14,600 –> 00:11:17,640
\nwith a voice of truth.
\nAnd he stood up to warn his <\/p>\n

181
\n00:11:17,640 –> 00:11:22,960
\ncontemporaries not to be misled
\nby the prosperity of Lamac, not <\/p>\n

182
\n00:11:22,960 –> 00:11:27,440
\nto be misled by the arrogance of
\nLamac and the power that he <\/p>\n

183
\n00:11:27,440 –> 00:11:29,520
\nwitnessed and manifested at that
\ntime. <\/p>\n

184
\n00:11:29,760 –> 00:11:33,600
\nThat man was enough.
\nAnd we read concerning Enoch in <\/p>\n

185
\n00:11:33,600 –> 00:11:39,240
\nverse 21 of that 5th chapter.
\nAnd Enoch lived 60 and five <\/p>\n

186
\n00:11:39,240 –> 00:11:44,320
\nyears and begat Methuselah.
\nAnd Enoch walked with God after <\/p>\n

187
\n00:11:44,320 –> 00:11:50,120
\nhe begat Methuselah 300 years,
\nand he begat sons and daughters <\/p>\n

188
\n00:11:50,520 –> 00:11:52,680
\nhe.
\nWalked with God. <\/p>\n

189
\n00:11:52,760 –> 00:11:58,240
\nWe read it there.
\nWhat a wonderful statement in an<\/p>\n

190
\n00:11:58,240 –> 00:12:01,240
\nage of corruption and
\nwickedness, in an age where the <\/p>\n

191
\n00:12:01,240 –> 00:12:03,960
\nsons of God were imitating the
\nways of the world. <\/p>\n

192
\n00:12:05,720 –> 00:12:09,680
\nAnd there’s no doubt about that.
\nYou read again the list of names<\/p>\n

193
\n00:12:09,680 –> 00:12:12,480
\nthat you have in that 5th
\nchapter, the list of names of <\/p>\n

194
\n00:12:12,480 –> 00:12:15,280
\nthe sons of God, and see how
\nthey imitate the names of the <\/p>\n

195
\n00:12:15,280 –> 00:12:19,840
\nsons of Cain.
\nSo here was an age of which the <\/p>\n

196
\n00:12:19,840 –> 00:12:23,440
\necclesia itself as being being
\naffected by the way of life <\/p>\n

197
\n00:12:23,440 –> 00:12:26,720
\nabout them, and they’re
\nimitating the ways of the world.<\/p>\n

198
\n00:12:26,760 –> 00:12:29,600
\nAnd this man stands up and he’s
\nunique almost. <\/p>\n

199
\n00:12:29,640 –> 00:12:34,520
\nHe walks with God.
\nThat was a challenge that he <\/p>\n

200
\n00:12:34,520 –> 00:12:36,960
\nissued to Lamech and do all the
\ncleaver at that time. <\/p>\n

201
\n00:12:37,120 –> 00:12:42,080
\nHe walked with God.
\nThe last time we read about that<\/p>\n

202
\n00:12:42,080 –> 00:12:46,480
\nis in the Garden of Eden.
\nSo he restored the fellowship <\/p>\n

203
\n00:12:46,480 –> 00:12:51,240
\nwith God in that way.
\nHe walked with God, which means <\/p>\n

204
\n00:12:51,400 –> 00:12:56,320
\nthat to him God was a reality.
\nHe recognized the power of God <\/p>\n

205
\n00:12:56,320 –> 00:13:00,880
\ngreater than the power of Lamac,
\nand God to him was a reality. <\/p>\n

206
\n00:13:00,920 –> 00:13:05,480
\nHe walked with God.
\nIt is so God was at his side. <\/p>\n

207
\n00:13:05,480 –> 00:13:08,120
\nWhile he walked along, he
\ndidn’t. <\/p>\n

208
\n00:13:08,120 –> 00:13:10,880
\nMean he mean merely talk about
\nGod. <\/p>\n

209
\n00:13:12,400 –> 00:13:14,720
\nHe didn’t have a statement of
\nfaith in which it stated what <\/p>\n

210
\n00:13:14,720 –> 00:13:18,680
\nGod is.
\nTo him God was a reality and he <\/p>\n

211
\n00:13:18,680 –> 00:13:23,160
\nwalked with God, and that is a
\nsign of true maturity. <\/p>\n

212
\n00:13:23,920 –> 00:13:27,400
\nWhen a person can walk with God,
\nI can. <\/p>\n

213
\n00:13:27,400 –> 00:13:30,120
\nTalk to you about God.
\nI can. <\/p>\n

214
\n00:13:30,160 –> 00:13:32,080
\nTurn to the scriptures about
\nGod. <\/p>\n

215
\n00:13:32,600 –> 00:13:37,160
\nI can explain how God is 1, but
\nto walk with God is a different <\/p>\n

216
\n00:13:37,160 –> 00:13:41,320
\nthing to that.
\nYou know, the main, the main. <\/p>\n

217
\n00:13:41,320 –> 00:13:43,160
\nCommandment.
\nThe first commandment to Israel <\/p>\n

218
\n00:13:43,160 –> 00:13:46,880
\nwas they were to love Yahweh
\ntheir God with all their heart, <\/p>\n

219
\n00:13:46,880 –> 00:13:49,120
\nwith all their mind, with all
\ntheir soul, and with all their <\/p>\n

220
\n00:13:49,120 –> 00:13:52,200
\nstrength.
\nLove Yahweh thy God. <\/p>\n

221
\n00:13:53,200 –> 00:13:56,400
\nWhat does that mean?
\nEver thought it out? <\/p>\n

222
\n00:13:57,560 –> 00:14:03,640
\nIf you love a person, don’t you
\nwant others to respect them and <\/p>\n

223
\n00:14:03,640 –> 00:14:06,400
\nlove them too?
\nIf you. <\/p>\n

224
\n00:14:06,400 –> 00:14:09,920
\nLove a person?
\nDon’t you speak about their good<\/p>\n

225
\n00:14:09,920 –> 00:14:13,440
\nqualities?
\nAnd aren’t you drawn to them by <\/p>\n

226
\n00:14:13,440 –> 00:14:18,000
\ntheir good qualities?
\nHow do we love God with all our <\/p>\n

227
\n00:14:18,000 –> 00:14:21,040
\nhearts?
\nBecause we say we love God. <\/p>\n

228
\n00:14:22,240 –> 00:14:25,760
\nWe love God with all our heart,
\nwhere we respect and honour Him <\/p>\n

229
\n00:14:25,760 –> 00:14:28,600
\nin our lives.
\nWe love Him with all our heart <\/p>\n

230
\n00:14:28,600 –> 00:14:31,960
\nand all our strength, where we
\nknow of His good qualities, <\/p>\n

231
\n00:14:32,120 –> 00:14:35,760
\nwhere we want to hearken to His
\nWord and understand what that <\/p>\n

232
\n00:14:35,760 –> 00:14:38,680
\nword means.
\nWhen we are prepared to go and <\/p>\n

233
\n00:14:38,680 –> 00:14:43,000
\nspeak to others about the grand
\nqualities of Yahweh, our God, <\/p>\n

234
\n00:14:43,160 –> 00:14:46,160
\nwhere we are prepared to
\nmaintain the standards that He <\/p>\n

235
\n00:14:46,160 –> 00:14:49,120
\nhas set in the Word of God, then
\nwe love Him. <\/p>\n

236
\n00:14:50,120 –> 00:14:53,480
\nIf a man loves me, saith the
\nLord Jesus Christ, he will keep <\/p>\n

237
\n00:14:53,480 –> 00:14:56,200
\nmy commandments.
\nThat’s the measure of love. <\/p>\n

238
\n00:14:56,400 –> 00:14:59,440
\nAnd to keep the commandments of
\nthe Lord Jesus Christ or to love<\/p>\n

239
\n00:14:59,440 –> 00:15:04,320
\nour God, I must sacrifice self.
\nI must do more for him than I <\/p>\n

240
\n00:15:04,320 –> 00:15:07,200
\nwill for myself.
\nAnd that’s a challenge. <\/p>\n

241
\n00:15:07,880 –> 00:15:10,960
\nA challenge every day of my
\nlife. <\/p>\n

242
\n00:15:11,480 –> 00:15:12,280
\nThis.
\nMan. <\/p>\n

243
\n00:15:12,440 –> 00:15:15,720
\nWalked with God.
\nGod was with him as he went <\/p>\n

244
\n00:15:15,720 –> 00:15:17,920
\nthrough life.
\nHe was with Enoch. <\/p>\n

245
\n00:15:18,160 –> 00:15:21,480
\nHe walked with God.
\nWhat does that mean? <\/p>\n

246
\n00:15:21,920 –> 00:15:25,880
\nIn the first epistle of John
\nchapter 1 and verse 5, we read <\/p>\n

247
\n00:15:25,880 –> 00:15:30,560
\nthat God is light, so He walked
\nin light. <\/p>\n

248
\n00:15:32,080 –> 00:15:35,960
\nIn the first of John chapter 4
\nand eight, we read that God is <\/p>\n

249
\n00:15:35,960 –> 00:15:42,360
\nlove, so He walked in love.
\nIn the first of John chapter 5 <\/p>\n

250
\n00:15:42,360 –> 00:15:44,760
\nof verse 26, we read that God is
\nlife. <\/p>\n

251
\n00:15:46,360 –> 00:15:51,080
\nSo He manifested that life.
\nHe walked with God because he <\/p>\n

252
\n00:15:51,080 –> 00:15:54,360
\nwalked in life, He walked in
\nlove and he walked with a true <\/p>\n

253
\n00:15:54,360 –> 00:15:58,720
\nlife before him.
\nHe was manifested in his life <\/p>\n

254
\n00:15:59,560 –> 00:16:04,120
\nand that has been that is what
\nit’s meant by walking with God. <\/p>\n

255
\n00:16:06,320 –> 00:16:11,680
\nIn the 17th chapter of Genesis
\nand verse 1, Abraham was told <\/p>\n

256
\n00:16:11,960 –> 00:16:19,680
\nwalk before me and grow up, be
\nperfect, be mature, walk before <\/p>\n

257
\n00:16:19,680 –> 00:16:24,840
\nme, walk as though you are
\nconscious of my eyes upon you. <\/p>\n

258
\n00:16:25,480 –> 00:16:29,880
\nThat’s what Abraham was told.
\nAnd we are told later on in the <\/p>\n

259
\n00:16:29,880 –> 00:16:34,920
\n24th chapter of Genesis of verse
\n40 that Abraham did that very <\/p>\n

260
\n00:16:34,920 –> 00:16:40,360
\nthing.
\nHe walked before God and Jacob <\/p>\n

261
\n00:16:40,360 –> 00:16:43,360
\nwhen he was dying, and he
\nbrought his grandsons deep <\/p>\n

262
\n00:16:43,360 –> 00:16:46,320
\nbefore him.
\nHe said in the 48th chapter of <\/p>\n

263
\n00:16:46,320 –> 00:16:52,960
\nGenesis and verse 15, the Angel
\nbefore whom I have walked, he <\/p>\n

264
\n00:16:52,960 –> 00:16:58,760
\nwas conscious of the presence of
\nthat Angel and of God, and he <\/p>\n

265
\n00:16:58,760 –> 00:17:05,119
\nwalked before him in that way.
\nIn the 26th chapter of Leviticus<\/p>\n

266
\n00:17:05,119 –> 00:17:10,760
\nof verse 12, we read that God
\nwalked with Israel. <\/p>\n

267
\n00:17:11,359 –> 00:17:14,560
\nThey were to build a Tabernacle
\nthat He might walk in their <\/p>\n

268
\n00:17:14,560 –> 00:17:18,240
\nmidst.
\nWhat a wonderful thing was that <\/p>\n

269
\n00:17:18,920 –> 00:17:22,240
\nHe was an encampment and God was
\nin the midst of it. <\/p>\n

270
\n00:17:22,680 –> 00:17:24,839
\nAnd they looked at the
\nTabernacle, they looked at the <\/p>\n

271
\n00:17:24,839 –> 00:17:28,319
\ncloud, they looked at the fire
\nand they had there the visible <\/p>\n

272
\n00:17:28,319 –> 00:17:32,280
\npresence of God day after day.
\nThey knew that until brethren <\/p>\n

273
\n00:17:32,280 –> 00:17:35,760
\nand sisters, I believe they came
\nlike we might cut become. <\/p>\n

274
\n00:17:36,040 –> 00:17:40,080
\nThey became so familiar with it,
\nthey took it all for granted and<\/p>\n

275
\n00:17:40,080 –> 00:17:44,680
\nthe power and the awe inspiring
\nrealization that God was in <\/p>\n

276
\n00:17:44,680 –> 00:17:46,960
\ntheir presence was forgotten by
\nthem. <\/p>\n

277
\n00:17:47,600 –> 00:17:51,120
\nUntil the time came that God
\nsaid to Moses, Truly I live. <\/p>\n

278
\n00:17:53,240 –> 00:17:55,400
\nAnd all the earth shall be.
\nFilled with my glory. <\/p>\n

279
\n00:17:56,280 –> 00:17:58,240
\nBut they didn’t realize he
\nlived. <\/p>\n

280
\n00:17:58,560 –> 00:18:01,600
\nThey now the words of God.
\nThey went into the Tabernacle. <\/p>\n

281
\n00:18:01,600 –> 00:18:06,200
\nThey bought their sacrifices
\nthere, but God live he and their<\/p>\n

282
\n00:18:06,200 –> 00:18:08,600
\npresence of God.
\nWe’re hungry and. <\/p>\n

283
\n00:18:10,920 –> 00:18:15,880
\nWe want water.
\nAnd who’s this Moses, anyway? <\/p>\n

284
\n00:18:18,480 –> 00:18:20,280
\nAnd look at the difficulties of
\nlife. <\/p>\n

285
\n00:18:21,240 –> 00:18:25,320
\nAnd what we’ve got.
\nAnd Jesus Christ says in <\/p>\n

286
\n00:18:25,320 –> 00:18:28,800
\nRevelation chapter 2 and verse
\none, Jesus Christ says, I am <\/p>\n

287
\n00:18:28,800 –> 00:18:30,840
\nhere that walk from the midst of
\nthe ecclesias. <\/p>\n

288
\n00:18:33,160 –> 00:18:38,720
\nWe need to remember that, don’t
\nwe, when we come before the Lord<\/p>\n

289
\n00:18:39,600 –> 00:18:41,840
\nin worship?
\nThat in that. <\/p>\n

290
\n00:18:41,840 –> 00:18:47,280
\nAudience there is Jesus Christ
\nquite a controversy once in the <\/p>\n

291
\n00:18:47,280 –> 00:18:51,800
\nAdelaide ecclesia because we
\nused to say or some used to say <\/p>\n

292
\n00:18:51,800 –> 00:18:57,240
\nthat this is the table of our
\nabsent Lord was quite an issue <\/p>\n

293
\n00:18:57,240 –> 00:18:59,840
\nbecause they said he wasn’t
\nabsent, which is true enough. <\/p>\n

294
\n00:19:01,000 –> 00:19:06,000
\nSo you see this is this is
\nwalking with God in the 86th <\/p>\n

295
\n00:19:06,000 –> 00:19:12,880
\nPsalm and that verse 11, the
\nPsalmist speaks concerning our <\/p>\n

296
\n00:19:12,880 –> 00:19:19,680
\nattitude towards God and he says
\nthis Psalm 86 and verse 11. <\/p>\n

297
\n00:19:20,240 –> 00:19:26,840
\nTeach me thy way, O Yahweh, I
\nwill walk in thy truth. <\/p>\n

298
\n00:19:27,640 –> 00:19:35,600
\nUnite my heart to fear thy name.
\nAnd there should be fear and <\/p>\n

299
\n00:19:35,600 –> 00:19:38,160
\nreverence in our approach to the
\nFather. <\/p>\n

300
\n00:19:39,040 –> 00:19:43,080
\nTeach me Thy way because we
\ndon’t know it. <\/p>\n

301
\n00:19:43,400 –> 00:19:47,120
\nAnd Moses, you know, on one
\noccasion when God came to him <\/p>\n

302
\n00:19:47,120 –> 00:19:50,760
\nand things were bad in Israel
\nand he’s pleading with God, he <\/p>\n

303
\n00:19:50,760 –> 00:19:55,720
\nsaid show me thy way.
\nEven Moses wanted to know that <\/p>\n

304
\n00:19:55,720 –> 00:19:57,240
\nway.
\nAnd here we have the psalmist. <\/p>\n

305
\n00:19:57,240 –> 00:20:00,560
\nTeach me thy way.
\nAnd we need to continuously <\/p>\n

306
\n00:20:00,560 –> 00:20:04,040
\nlearn about that.
\nIf we’re going to walk with God,<\/p>\n

307
\n00:20:04,040 –> 00:20:08,200
\nwe need to show humility,
\nseeking out what God requires of<\/p>\n

308
\n00:20:08,200 –> 00:20:10,640
\nus and try to build it into our
\nlives. <\/p>\n

309
\n00:20:10,960 –> 00:20:15,320
\nIn the 6th chapter of Micah and
\nverse 8, the prophet was told, <\/p>\n

310
\n00:20:15,320 –> 00:20:19,600
\nHe shall show thee, O man, what
\nis good, and what doth Yahweh <\/p>\n

311
\n00:20:19,600 –> 00:20:25,720
\nrequires thee but to do justly
\nand to love mercy, and then to <\/p>\n

312
\n00:20:25,720 –> 00:20:30,320
\ntake the marginal rendition, to
\nhumble thyself to walk with thy <\/p>\n

313
\n00:20:30,320 –> 00:20:34,200
\nGod, to humble thyself to walk
\nwith thy God. <\/p>\n

314
\n00:20:34,560 –> 00:20:39,120
\nThat’s what that man Enoch did
\nas he witnessed against the the <\/p>\n

315
\n00:20:39,640 –> 00:20:42,640
\nLamech at that day.
\nHe humbled himself to walk with <\/p>\n

316
\n00:20:42,640 –> 00:20:45,880
\nhis God.
\nYou know the Lord Jesus Christ <\/p>\n

317
\n00:20:45,880 –> 00:20:48,640
\nneeded the presence of God.
\nHe could not have conquered <\/p>\n

318
\n00:20:48,640 –> 00:20:52,160
\nunless God was with him.
\nAnd at every moment of his life,<\/p>\n

319
\n00:20:52,160 –> 00:20:55,200
\neven whilst he hung up on the
\ncross, that Father was with the <\/p>\n

320
\n00:20:55,200 –> 00:20:58,040
\nSon.
\nHe said to the these apostles in<\/p>\n

321
\n00:20:58,040 –> 00:21:03,120
\nthe 16th chapter of John and at
\nverse 32 he said to his <\/p>\n

322
\n00:21:03,120 –> 00:21:06,240
\napostles, all you are going to
\nflee for my presence. <\/p>\n

323
\n00:21:06,520 –> 00:21:08,360
\nBut I’m not going to be left on
\nmy own. <\/p>\n

324
\n00:21:08,480 –> 00:21:11,440
\nI won’t be on the own, my own
\nbecause the Father will be with <\/p>\n

325
\n00:21:11,440 –> 00:21:13,520
\nme.
\nThe Father will be with me. <\/p>\n

326
\n00:21:13,720 –> 00:21:17,520
\nAnd in all the torture that came
\nupon him, in all the end, the <\/p>\n

327
\n00:21:17,520 –> 00:21:20,400
\naccusations that were pressed
\nagainst him, in all that he <\/p>\n

328
\n00:21:20,400 –> 00:21:23,760
\nsuffered, the Lord Jesus Christ
\nwas able to lift his mind above <\/p>\n

329
\n00:21:23,760 –> 00:21:26,040
\nthose things to the Father on
\nhigh. <\/p>\n

330
\n00:21:26,160 –> 00:21:29,160
\nAnd that’s the way to conquer in
\nanything given that. <\/p>\n

331
\n00:21:29,160 –> 00:21:32,680
\nAnd a person can conquer if he
\nlifts his mind up and fills his <\/p>\n

332
\n00:21:32,680 –> 00:21:37,240
\nmind upon the things of God.
\nYou know, years ago I was, I was<\/p>\n

333
\n00:21:37,560 –> 00:21:40,320
\ncalled into an ecclesia.
\nAn ecclesia was breaking up. <\/p>\n

334
\n00:21:40,320 –> 00:21:43,640
\nIt was very, very severe, very,
\nvery difficult in Australia. <\/p>\n

335
\n00:21:43,640 –> 00:21:46,880
\nThis was not in SA.
\nAnd they called me over to do <\/p>\n

336
\n00:21:46,880 –> 00:21:49,640
\nsomething about this.
\nAnd my word, they talk about <\/p>\n

337
\n00:21:49,640 –> 00:21:51,960
\nantagonism.
\nIt was very, very marked there <\/p>\n

338
\n00:21:51,960 –> 00:21:55,160
\non both sides really.
\nBut one side was worse than the <\/p>\n

339
\n00:21:55,160 –> 00:21:58,760
\nother, terrible really.
\nAnd I met that that company, the<\/p>\n

340
\n00:21:58,760 –> 00:22:01,560
\nBrazil and the sisters there,
\nand they were telling me things <\/p>\n

341
\n00:22:01,560 –> 00:22:05,000
\nand saying this and plowing me
\nwith ideas about this and about <\/p>\n

342
\n00:22:05,000 –> 00:22:06,280
\nthe wickedness of the other
\ngroup. <\/p>\n

343
\n00:22:07,160 –> 00:22:09,840
\nAnd I was trying to reason with
\nthem on this sort of thing, <\/p>\n

344
\n00:22:09,840 –> 00:22:13,960
\nwhether they will look, we can
\ndo this or do that do the other <\/p>\n

345
\n00:22:13,960 –> 00:22:15,520
\none man stood up in the midst of
\nthat. <\/p>\n

346
\n00:22:15,520 –> 00:22:17,160
\nHe stood over me with express
\nlike this. <\/p>\n

347
\n00:22:17,160 –> 00:22:20,240
\nAnd he was.
\nTalking like that I could do <\/p>\n

348
\n00:22:20,240 –> 00:22:27,120
\nnothing.
\nSo I sat down and they’re going.<\/p>\n

349
\n00:22:27,120 –> 00:22:29,760
\nThey’re still going.
\nThey’re, I think going two or <\/p>\n

350
\n00:22:29,760 –> 00:22:33,040
\nthree of them going at once.
\nI could do nothing. <\/p>\n

351
\n00:22:33,720 –> 00:22:35,600
\nI just sat down.
\nYou know this. <\/p>\n

352
\n00:22:35,600 –> 00:22:38,960
\nI sat down and I let my mind get
\non the other things. <\/p>\n

353
\n00:22:38,960 –> 00:22:42,000
\nI lifted it to the Father.
\nI prayed unto God at that <\/p>\n

354
\n00:22:42,000 –> 00:22:46,400
\nparticular time not to solve
\nanything, but merely that I <\/p>\n

355
\n00:22:46,440 –> 00:22:50,360
\nmyself wanted to be confident.
\nAnd you know, I’m a tendency to <\/p>\n

356
\n00:22:50,360 –> 00:22:52,680
\nflare up and I didn’t want to do
\nthat and ruin everything. <\/p>\n

357
\n00:22:52,920 –> 00:22:56,560
\nSo I got my mind on that, do you
\nknow, before that meeting was <\/p>\n

358
\n00:22:56,560 –> 00:22:58,560
\nover and I cannot.
\nTell you the processes. <\/p>\n

359
\n00:22:58,560 –> 00:23:01,640
\nNow before that meeting was
\nover, I had an offer to the <\/p>\n

360
\n00:23:01,640 –> 00:23:03,400
\nother group in my hand for
\nthese. <\/p>\n

361
\n00:23:03,880 –> 00:23:08,040
\nSight and by that means the
\nsituation was saved. <\/p>\n

362
\n00:23:08,880 –> 00:23:12,560
\nIt’s amazing in that regard.
\nAnd you see here we have the <\/p>\n

363
\n00:23:12,560 –> 00:23:15,160
\nLord Jesus Christ.
\nThe Father is with me. <\/p>\n

364
\n00:23:16,120 –> 00:23:20,080
\nThere are certain requirements
\nnecessary to have the Father <\/p>\n

365
\n00:23:20,080 –> 00:23:23,840
\nwith us and in the second of
\nCorinthians chapter 6 of verse <\/p>\n

366
\n00:23:23,840 –> 00:23:28,280
\n16 we have one such This
\nincidentally used to be a means <\/p>\n

367
\n00:23:28,280 –> 00:23:31,040
\nthat we used to use in the
\ncourts when we appeared on <\/p>\n

368
\n00:23:31,040 –> 00:23:35,560
\nbehalf of our young people
\nbecause we had the we used to be<\/p>\n

369
\n00:23:35,560 –> 00:23:38,240
\nable to do that.
\nAnd in the second of Corinthians<\/p>\n

370
\n00:23:38,240 –> 00:23:43,800
\nchapter 6 of verse 16, verse
\nsays well there it says. <\/p>\n

371
\n00:23:44,160 –> 00:23:46,160
\nI will dwell.
\nWith them and walk with them, <\/p>\n

372
\n00:23:46,160 –> 00:23:49,160
\nsays God, that ye are the temple
\nof the living God. <\/p>\n

373
\n00:23:49,160 –> 00:23:51,000
\nI will dwell.
\nWith them and walk with them, <\/p>\n

374
\n00:23:51,000 –> 00:23:53,520
\nand I will be their God, and
\nthey shall be my people. <\/p>\n

375
\n00:23:53,880 –> 00:23:57,520
\nNow in verse 17 Paul says,
\ntherefore come out from among <\/p>\n

376
\n00:23:57,520 –> 00:24:00,360
\nthem, and be ye separate and
\ntouched up the unclean thing, <\/p>\n

377
\n00:24:00,360 –> 00:24:03,840
\nand I will receive you see there
\nwere conditions. <\/p>\n

378
\n00:24:04,560 –> 00:24:08,160
\nGod says I will be with you.
\nI will dwell with you. <\/p>\n

379
\n00:24:08,640 –> 00:24:13,360
\nI will be your God.
\n‘S own conditions therefore come<\/p>\n

380
\n00:24:13,360 –> 00:24:15,840
\nout from among them, and be ye
\nseparate, saith the Lord, and <\/p>\n

381
\n00:24:15,840 –> 00:24:19,080
\ntouch not the unclean thing, and
\nI will receive you, and I will <\/p>\n

382
\n00:24:19,080 –> 00:24:22,480
\nbe a father unto you, and you
\nshall be my sons and daughters, <\/p>\n

383
\n00:24:22,480 –> 00:24:26,640
\nsaith the Lord Almighty.
\nThere are conditions, and if we <\/p>\n

384
\n00:24:26,640 –> 00:24:29,600
\nfollow those conditions, He will
\nbe for us a father. <\/p>\n

385
\n00:24:30,520 –> 00:24:33,400
\nAnd so you see.
\nGod will dwell with us, and we <\/p>\n

386
\n00:24:33,400 –> 00:24:38,360
\nwill walk with God.
\nAnd then as John says in the <\/p>\n

387
\n00:24:38,360 –> 00:24:42,520
\nfirst of John one and seven,
\nthen shall we have fellowship <\/p>\n

388
\n00:24:42,520 –> 00:24:46,920
\nwith the Father, Fellowship with
\nthe Father, the most precious <\/p>\n

389
\n00:24:46,920 –> 00:24:50,760
\nthing that we can possibly have.
\nBecause if one has fellowship <\/p>\n

390
\n00:24:50,760 –> 00:24:54,480
\nwith the Father, it really
\ndoesn’t matter much what happens<\/p>\n

391
\n00:24:54,760 –> 00:24:56,640
\nbecause you can share it with
\nGod. <\/p>\n

392
\n00:24:57,000 –> 00:25:00,800
\nIf one has fellowship with the
\nFather, then we are going to <\/p>\n

393
\n00:25:00,800 –> 00:25:03,120
\ngain a great benefit in our
\nlives now. <\/p>\n

394
\n00:25:03,400 –> 00:25:06,320
\nAnd let us understand that that
\ndoes not necessarily necessarily<\/p>\n

395
\n00:25:06,320 –> 00:25:10,680
\nmean that we will be saved from
\nevery problem and every trouble <\/p>\n

396
\n00:25:10,680 –> 00:25:14,800
\nthat faces us by no means.
\nBut we will be able to gain <\/p>\n

397
\n00:25:14,800 –> 00:25:18,280
\ncomfort in trouble and we will
\nbe able to gain the strength to <\/p>\n

398
\n00:25:18,280 –> 00:25:21,240
\nsurmount trouble.
\nAnd I think I want to show you, <\/p>\n

399
\n00:25:21,280 –> 00:25:24,160
\nand I’m going to say it now,
\nit’s out of turn, but in case I <\/p>\n

400
\n00:25:24,160 –> 00:25:28,200
\nforget it, when you come through
\nHebrews Chapter 11, you have two<\/p>\n

401
\n00:25:28,200 –> 00:25:31,240
\nmen of faith mentioned, and then
\nyou have a break. <\/p>\n

402
\n00:25:31,480 –> 00:25:34,720
\nYou have Abel and Enoch and then
\na break. <\/p>\n

403
\n00:25:35,200 –> 00:25:38,600
\nAnd Paul says without faith it
\nis impossible to please him for <\/p>\n

404
\n00:25:38,720 –> 00:25:43,400
\nGod.
\nFor if without faith it is <\/p>\n

405
\n00:25:43,400 –> 00:25:45,800
\nimpossible to please God, for
\nwhat? <\/p>\n

406
\n00:25:56,200 –> 00:25:59,320
\nWithout faith it is impossible
\nto please him, For he that <\/p>\n

407
\n00:25:59,320 –> 00:26:04,760
\ncometh to God must believe that
\nGod is and will become a reward.<\/p>\n

408
\n00:26:05,320 –> 00:26:10,360
\nNow Abel knew that God is he.
\nGod was a reality to him. <\/p>\n

409
\n00:26:10,840 –> 00:26:13,160
\nEnoch found that God.
\nWas a rewarder. <\/p>\n

410
\n00:26:14,040 –> 00:26:18,040
\nAbel died, he was murdered.
\nGod didn’t save him. <\/p>\n

411
\n00:26:19,200 –> 00:26:23,680
\nEnoch was translated.
\nBoth were moved by faith, but <\/p>\n

412
\n00:26:23,680 –> 00:26:26,400
\nGod acted towards each one in a
\ndifferent way. <\/p>\n

413
\n00:26:27,000 –> 00:26:30,920
\nSo don’t let us presume upon
\nanything that maybe that God <\/p>\n

414
\n00:26:30,920 –> 00:26:33,600
\nwill save us out of trouble,
\nmaybe He will not. <\/p>\n

415
\n00:26:33,760 –> 00:26:36,560
\nBut whether He does or whether
\nHe doesn’t, we will gain the <\/p>\n

416
\n00:26:36,560 –> 00:26:40,240
\ngreat benefit of fellowship with
\nHim, a sharing of our troubles, <\/p>\n

417
\n00:26:40,480 –> 00:26:43,760
\na resting upon Him, and a
\ncomfort in the midst of misery <\/p>\n

418
\n00:26:43,840 –> 00:26:48,040
\nthat nothing else can give us.
\nAnd that is what fellowship with<\/p>\n

419
\n00:26:48,040 –> 00:26:52,040
\nthe Father means.
\nAnd finally, in the 4th chapter <\/p>\n

420
\n00:26:52,040 –> 00:26:57,880
\nof Proverbs and at verses 18 and
\n19, we have the benefits of <\/p>\n

421
\n00:26:57,880 –> 00:27:01,280
\nwalking with God, because we
\nread there the path of the <\/p>\n

422
\n00:27:01,280 –> 00:27:06,960
\njustice as a shining light that
\nshone of more and more unto the <\/p>\n

423
\n00:27:06,960 –> 00:27:12,600
\nperfect day, a shining light
\nthat shine of more and more. <\/p>\n

424
\n00:27:12,960 –> 00:27:17,240
\nWhen we come and embrace the
\ntruth, the light begins to <\/p>\n

425
\n00:27:17,240 –> 00:27:20,960
\nshine.
\nIf we pursue a course of study <\/p>\n

426
\n00:27:20,960 –> 00:27:25,480
\nof the Word and application of
\nthat Word, irrespective as to <\/p>\n

427
\n00:27:25,480 –> 00:27:29,680
\nthe darkness that might crowd us
\nin our path will be a shining <\/p>\n

428
\n00:27:29,680 –> 00:27:32,640
\nlight.
\nAnd we will find by experiences <\/p>\n

429
\n00:27:32,760 –> 00:27:36,120
\nthat that shining light will
\nshine brighter and brighter <\/p>\n

430
\n00:27:36,200 –> 00:27:39,640
\ntowards the perfect day, and we
\nwill be looking with <\/p>\n

431
\n00:27:39,640 –> 00:27:44,360
\nanticipation and joy to the
\ncoming of the Lord Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n

432
\n00:27:44,880 –> 00:27:48,200
\nOn the other hand, the way of
\nthe wickedness as darkness, they<\/p>\n

433
\n00:27:48,200 –> 00:27:50,480
\ndon’t even know at what they
\nstumble. <\/p>\n

434
\n00:27:51,080 –> 00:27:54,000
\nSo there we have.
\nIn that age of darkness, when <\/p>\n

435
\n00:27:54,000 –> 00:27:57,960
\nLamech was standing up with his
\nbold boasts, when the sons of <\/p>\n

436
\n00:27:57,960 –> 00:28:01,280
\nGod could see the prosperity of
\nthe wicked and wondered whether <\/p>\n

437
\n00:28:01,280 –> 00:28:05,120
\nthey were doing right in their
\nway of life, there was a man who<\/p>\n

438
\n00:28:05,120 –> 00:28:08,800
\nwalked with God like a shining
\nlight in the midst of darkness. <\/p>\n

439
\n00:28:08,920 –> 00:28:12,360
\nHe walked with God.
\nHe wasn’t a silent man. <\/p>\n

440
\n00:28:12,360 –> 00:28:17,160
\nUnderstand we come over to the
\nthe epistle of Jude and we find <\/p>\n

441
\n00:28:17,160 –> 00:28:20,600
\nthat the way in which he
\nconducted himself in that age in<\/p>\n

442
\n00:28:20,600 –> 00:28:24,680
\nJude’s record.
\nSo in the epistle of Jude, we <\/p>\n

443
\n00:28:24,680 –> 00:28:32,280
\nread these words in verse 14 and
\nEnoch also the 7th format of <\/p>\n

444
\n00:28:32,600 –> 00:28:37,480
\nprophesied of these saying,
\nBehold, the Lord cometh with 10 <\/p>\n

445
\n00:28:37,480 –> 00:28:41,120
\nthousands of his Saints to
\nexecute judgement upon all, and <\/p>\n

446
\n00:28:41,120 –> 00:28:44,840
\nto convince all that are ungodly
\namong them of their ungodly <\/p>\n

447
\n00:28:44,840 –> 00:28:48,360
\ndeeds which they have ungodly
\ncommitted, and of all their hard<\/p>\n

448
\n00:28:48,360 –> 00:28:51,720
\nspeeches which ungodly sinners
\nhave spoken against him. <\/p>\n

449
\n00:28:52,520 –> 00:28:57,480
\nThat’s the witness of the of
\nEnoch try to create the drama of<\/p>\n

450
\n00:28:57,480 –> 00:29:01,280
\nthe situation.
\nOn the one hand you have lame <\/p>\n

451
\n00:29:01,280 –> 00:29:07,400
\nact with his tongue.
\nI will Slayer man if he wounds <\/p>\n

452
\n00:29:07,400 –> 00:29:11,840
\nme, I will destroy anyone that
\nstands in my path. <\/p>\n

453
\n00:29:12,320 –> 00:29:18,760
\nIf Kane is avenged, 7 * I lame
\nthat will avenge myself. 70 * 7 <\/p>\n

454
\n00:29:20,720 –> 00:29:24,640
\nThe Lord Thomas with 10,000 of
\nhis Saints, to execute judgment <\/p>\n

455
\n00:29:24,640 –> 00:29:28,160
\nupon all, and to convince all
\nthat are ungodly among them, of <\/p>\n

456
\n00:29:28,160 –> 00:29:31,400
\nall their ungodly deeds which
\nthey have an ungodly committed, <\/p>\n

457
\n00:29:31,600 –> 00:29:34,600
\nand of all their hard speeches
\nwhich ungodly sinners have <\/p>\n

458
\n00:29:34,600 –> 00:29:38,280
\nspoken against him.
\nThere was the challenge of Enoch<\/p>\n

459
\n00:29:38,280 –> 00:29:42,400
\nstanding up boldly, defiantly
\nbefore Lamech, sitting before <\/p>\n

460
\n00:29:42,400 –> 00:29:46,160
\nthe world, the truth in Christ
\nJesus, warning them of judgment <\/p>\n

461
\n00:29:46,160 –> 00:29:48,680
\nto come, because he knew the
\njudgment was coming. <\/p>\n

462
\n00:29:48,880 –> 00:29:52,600
\nHe realized that judgment was on
\nthe way, and there was his <\/p>\n

463
\n00:29:52,640 –> 00:29:54,880
\nwitness to that end.
\nThey. <\/p>\n

464
\n00:29:55,400 –> 00:29:58,560
\nEnoch lived at a time when he
\nrecognized the signs of the <\/p>\n

465
\n00:29:58,560 –> 00:30:01,720
\ntimes, and he knew that the time
\nwas rapidly coming when <\/p>\n

466
\n00:30:01,720 –> 00:30:05,000
\njudgement would be poured out
\nupon that evil generation. <\/p>\n

467
\n00:30:05,480 –> 00:30:09,960
\nThat’s why he called his son
\nMethuselah, the oldest man that <\/p>\n

468
\n00:30:09,960 –> 00:30:13,280
\never lived.
\nMethuselah, whose name means <\/p>\n

469
\n00:30:13,600 –> 00:30:19,640
\nwhen he dies it shall come.
\nAnd the year in which Methuselah<\/p>\n

470
\n00:30:19,640 –> 00:30:24,080
\ndied, the flood came.
\nSo there was a set time, you <\/p>\n

471
\n00:30:24,080 –> 00:30:27,160
\nsee, as far as that period was
\nconcerned. <\/p>\n

472
\n00:30:27,400 –> 00:30:31,120
\nAnd evidently Enoch had received
\nthe revelation from God, and he <\/p>\n

473
\n00:30:31,120 –> 00:30:32,800
\nknew.
\nWhat he was talking about so <\/p>\n

474
\n00:30:32,800 –> 00:30:34,720
\nthat when his son was born, he
\ncalled. <\/p>\n

475
\n00:30:34,720 –> 00:30:40,280
\nHim, Methuselah, and Methuselah
\nstood as a witness to all their <\/p>\n

476
\n00:30:40,280 –> 00:30:43,720
\ngeneration, that they were
\nliving in the set time when <\/p>\n

477
\n00:30:43,720 –> 00:30:47,200
\njudgment would be brought about
\nupon that generation. <\/p>\n

478
\n00:30:47,400 –> 00:30:50,720
\nHe not witnessed like that the.
\n7th. <\/p>\n

479
\n00:30:50,720 –> 00:30:53,760
\nFrom Adam.
\nWhy should Jude say that? <\/p>\n

480
\n00:30:54,000 –> 00:30:57,920
\nWell, as a matter of fact.
\nHe is the 7th from Adam if you <\/p>\n

481
\n00:30:57,920 –> 00:31:00,680
\nadd up the numbers that from
\nAdam down. <\/p>\n

482
\n00:31:01,160 –> 00:31:05,280
\nAnd on the other side, Lamech
\nwas the 7th from Adam too, but <\/p>\n

483
\n00:31:05,280 –> 00:31:07,760
\nin the line of cave.
\nSo there you have your <\/p>\n

484
\n00:31:07,760 –> 00:31:09,880
\ncontemporaries, the 7th from
\nAdam. <\/p>\n

485
\n00:31:10,640 –> 00:31:14,600
\nBut in a measure, I think that
\nwhat Judas telling us is that <\/p>\n

486
\n00:31:14,600 –> 00:31:19,280
\nhe’s really a type of those that
\nlive at the epoch of the 7th <\/p>\n

487
\n00:31:19,360 –> 00:31:23,640
\nMillennium ourselves.
\nAnd there is the form of witness<\/p>\n

488
\n00:31:23,640 –> 00:31:27,560
\nagainst an evil world against
\nwhich we must battle. <\/p>\n

489
\n00:31:28,120 –> 00:31:31,360
\nYou know, I think that today is
\nnever before the truth should go<\/p>\n

490
\n00:31:31,360 –> 00:31:35,400
\nforth in a forthright,
\nbelligerent fashion, so that the<\/p>\n

491
\n00:31:35,400 –> 00:31:38,760
\nworld about us understands
\nexactly what is required of us. <\/p>\n

492
\n00:31:39,800 –> 00:31:42,240
\nAnd this is the witness of
\nEnoch. <\/p>\n

493
\n00:31:42,240 –> 00:31:47,000
\nHe spake out plainly and showed
\nthe people the error of their <\/p>\n

494
\n00:31:47,000 –> 00:31:50,720
\nways and directed them to
\njudgments about to fall upon <\/p>\n

495
\n00:31:50,720 –> 00:31:53,960
\nthat generation.
\nHe is mentioned, as we saw <\/p>\n

496
\n00:31:54,000 –> 00:31:56,640
\nbefore, in this 11th chapter of
\nHebrews. <\/p>\n

497
\n00:31:57,000 –> 00:32:00,080
\nAnd here we have a.
\nFurther commentary upon this man<\/p>\n

498
\n00:32:00,080 –> 00:32:05,200
\neven Enoch the 7th from Adam.
\nAnd here we read in verse 5 of <\/p>\n

499
\n00:32:05,200 –> 00:32:11,400
\nHebrews Chapter 11 that by faith
\nEnoch was translated that he <\/p>\n

500
\n00:32:11,400 –> 00:32:18,520
\nshould not see death and he was
\nnot found because God had <\/p>\n

501
\n00:32:18,520 –> 00:32:22,840
\ntranslated him.
\nBefore his translation. <\/p>\n

502
\n00:32:22,840 –> 00:32:26,960
\nHe had this testimony that he
\npleased God. <\/p>\n

503
\n00:32:28,440 –> 00:32:31,080
\nSo you see, there’s a witness
\nthat he pleased God. <\/p>\n

504
\n00:32:31,080 –> 00:32:34,920
\nHe walked with God, and God has
\ngiven that testimony. <\/p>\n

505
\n00:32:35,160 –> 00:32:38,840
\nIt’s a sort of a judgment.
\nUpon him, and then having. <\/p>\n

506
\n00:32:38,840 –> 00:32:41,400
\nGiven that judgment, he
\ntranslated him that he should <\/p>\n

507
\n00:32:41,400 –> 00:32:46,840
\nnot see there, and we read in
\nthat verse those words and was <\/p>\n

508
\n00:32:46,840 –> 00:32:54,240
\nnot found and was not found,
\nwhich means that there was a <\/p>\n

509
\n00:32:54,240 –> 00:32:58,640
\nsearch made for him and they
\ncould not find him. <\/p>\n

510
\n00:33:00,240 –> 00:33:05,000
\nOne day Enoch was there
\nproclaiming the Lord cometh with<\/p>\n

511
\n00:33:05,000 –> 00:33:11,200
\n10,000 of his Saints, a familiar
\nfigure to that generation, and <\/p>\n

512
\n00:33:11,240 –> 00:33:15,160
\nthen he’s not there and people
\nask, where’s Enoch? <\/p>\n

513
\n00:33:16,120 –> 00:33:22,200
\nThey can’t find him, so a search
\nis made for him, but they can’t <\/p>\n

514
\n00:33:22,200 –> 00:33:25,680
\nfind me not he’s not.
\nTo be fair, that says it here. <\/p>\n

515
\n00:33:25,800 –> 00:33:29,160
\nHe was not found.
\nHe’s the 7th from Adam. <\/p>\n

516
\n00:33:29,800 –> 00:33:33,600
\nHe seems to be a type of this
\ngeneration and the time is <\/p>\n

517
\n00:33:33,600 –> 00:33:37,040
\ncoming, brethren of sisters,
\nwhen a search will be made for <\/p>\n

518
\n00:33:37,040 –> 00:33:41,240
\nus and we won’t be found when
\nthe Lord Jesus Christ returns. <\/p>\n

519
\n00:33:41,240 –> 00:33:45,080
\nPaul says in the Second of
\nThessalonians chapter 2 and <\/p>\n

520
\n00:33:45,080 –> 00:33:48,200
\nverse one that we will be
\ngathered unto him. <\/p>\n

521
\n00:33:49,040 –> 00:33:51,240
\nWe will be taken unto the Lord
\nJesus. <\/p>\n

522
\n00:33:51,520 –> 00:33:55,720
\nWe will be taken out out of our
\nimmediate circles and to the <\/p>\n

523
\n00:33:55,720 –> 00:34:00,440
\npresence of the Lord Jesus
\nChrist and our voices will be <\/p>\n

524
\n00:34:00,440 –> 00:34:03,040
\nstilled as far as the witness of
\nthe world is concerned. <\/p>\n

525
\n00:34:03,440 –> 00:34:06,960
\nThe doors of our halls will be
\nkept locked and closed. <\/p>\n

526
\n00:34:07,240 –> 00:34:10,719
\nOur homes will not be will be
\nvacated. <\/p>\n

527
\n00:34:10,840 –> 00:34:13,679
\nWe will not be there and people.
\nWill wonder what? <\/p>\n

528
\n00:34:13,679 –> 00:34:16,719
\nWill happen.
\nYou imagine the scene. <\/p>\n

529
\n00:34:16,719 –> 00:34:20,960
\nIt’s a real scene.
\nBut when the Lord returns and <\/p>\n

530
\n00:34:20,960 –> 00:34:24,159
\nwe’re taken out of our homes,
\npeople are going to ask what’s <\/p>\n

531
\n00:34:24,159 –> 00:34:26,000
\ngone wrong?
\nWhere’s these people? <\/p>\n

532
\n00:34:26,760 –> 00:34:30,040
\nWhere have they gone?
\nAnd like in the days of Enoch, <\/p>\n

533
\n00:34:30,040 –> 00:34:33,480
\nit will be a seven days wonder.
\nA search will be made. <\/p>\n

534
\n00:34:33,760 –> 00:34:37,000
\nHave they all gone away?
\nThere may be mortgages to be <\/p>\n

535
\n00:34:37,000 –> 00:34:38,760
\npaid.
\nThere may be commitments to be <\/p>\n

536
\n00:34:39,480 –> 00:34:41,679
\nfulfilled.
\nThey can’t do that and they’re <\/p>\n

537
\n00:34:41,679 –> 00:34:44,400
\nnot there to do it.
\nAnd people will wonder what is <\/p>\n

538
\n00:34:44,400 –> 00:34:47,239
\nthe matter.
\nThere will be the halls closed <\/p>\n

539
\n00:34:48,719 –> 00:34:51,600
\nand ultimately I suppose
\nsomewhere will say, well look, <\/p>\n

540
\n00:34:51,600 –> 00:34:54,920
\nwe’re going to force those upon
\nthe hall and they will open the <\/p>\n

541
\n00:34:54,920 –> 00:34:57,080
\nhall and then they’ll see the
\nherald of a coming age or <\/p>\n

542
\n00:34:57,080 –> 00:34:59,280
\nsomething like that.
\nAnd then they will know what’s <\/p>\n

543
\n00:34:59,280 –> 00:35:00,760
\nhappened.
\nWe’ve been taken away. <\/p>\n

544
\n00:35:00,760 –> 00:35:03,400
\nThe Lord has come.
\nThe witness will be fulfilled. <\/p>\n

545
\n00:35:03,400 –> 00:35:06,640
\nAnd I believe it’s good to set
\nforth that witness that the Lord<\/p>\n

546
\n00:35:06,640 –> 00:35:09,680
\nis coming and this is going to
\nhappen, and let the world know <\/p>\n

547
\n00:35:09,720 –> 00:35:10,920
\nit’s.
\nGoing to happen. <\/p>\n

548
\n00:35:12,640 –> 00:35:15,320
\nWhether we let the world know it
\nor not, that’s going to happen. <\/p>\n

549
\n00:35:16,120 –> 00:35:18,000
\nIt’s going to be they’re going
\nto return. <\/p>\n

550
\n00:35:18,000 –> 00:35:20,720
\nWe’re going to be called to him.
\nThese places are going to be <\/p>\n

551
\n00:35:20,720 –> 00:35:22,600
\nlocked.
\nOur opportunities will be <\/p>\n

552
\n00:35:22,600 –> 00:35:24,800
\nclosed.
\nWe will no longer be gathered in<\/p>\n

553
\n00:35:24,800 –> 00:35:27,600
\nBible school.
\nWe will be no longer gathered at<\/p>\n

554
\n00:35:27,600 –> 00:35:31,040
\nour meetings.
\nThe chance the opportunity will <\/p>\n

555
\n00:35:31,040 –> 00:35:35,320
\ncease and it will be like this
\nand the possibilities are that <\/p>\n

556
\n00:35:35,320 –> 00:35:38,720
\nwe like Enoch maybe translator
\nthat we should not see there. <\/p>\n

557
\n00:35:39,040 –> 00:35:42,840
\nThank God that that will be our
\ndestiny at that particular time.<\/p>\n

558
\n00:35:43,000 –> 00:35:47,440
\nThat we should be like him in
\nthat that faithful witness that <\/p>\n

559
\n00:35:47,440 –> 00:35:51,360
\nhe has set forth before all
\nmankind at that particular time.<\/p>\n

560
\n00:35:51,920 –> 00:36:00,240
\nSo that in the case of Enoch and
\nin the case of of layback, the <\/p>\n

561
\n00:36:00,440 –> 00:36:05,760
\nway of the world and the way of
\ntruth is faithfully set before <\/p>\n

562
\n00:36:05,760 –> 00:36:08,280
\nus at the beginnings of
\ncreation. <\/p>\n

563
\n00:36:08,840 –> 00:36:13,720
\nSo that God has laid it down
\nthere what we should do and how <\/p>\n

564
\n00:36:13,720 –> 00:36:20,040
\nwe should act in the face of the
\ngrowing climax of these times, <\/p>\n

565
\n00:36:20,400 –> 00:36:26,040
\nin the face of the growing crime
\nand immorality, the decline in <\/p>\n

566
\n00:36:26,040 –> 00:36:29,760
\nthe things of God that is
\nmanifested in the world, the <\/p>\n

567
\n00:36:29,760 –> 00:36:33,040
\nrepudiation of principles of
\nrighteousness. <\/p>\n

568
\n00:36:33,400 –> 00:36:40,880
\nLet us walk with God and let us
\nwitness faithfully in relation <\/p>\n

569
\n00:36:41,040 –> 00:36:47,080
\nto the future that God has
\ndesigned to set up upon this <\/p>\n

570
\n00:36:47,120 –> 00:36:50,000
\nearth.
\nYou see that little verse? <\/p>\n

571
\n00:36:50,440 –> 00:36:54,560
\nAnd Enoch walked with God and he
\nwas not. <\/p>\n

572
\n00:36:54,960 –> 00:36:57,080
\nThis is back in Genesis chapter
\n5. <\/p>\n

573
\n00:36:57,360 –> 00:37:01,160
\nHe was not.
\nThat is not sound, for God took <\/p>\n

574
\n00:37:01,160 –> 00:37:04,960
\nhim.
\nAnd so you see that was Enoch’s <\/p>\n

575
\n00:37:04,960 –> 00:37:08,640
\nwitness.
\nHe had witnessed for for his, <\/p>\n

576
\n00:37:08,880 –> 00:37:12,120
\nthe days of Enoch were 365
\nyears. <\/p>\n

577
\n00:37:12,800 –> 00:37:18,440
\nIt’s like a lunar.
\nIt’s like a year, a solar year <\/p>\n

578
\n00:37:18,440 –> 00:37:23,920
\nof years, 360 years.
\nAnd there in the midst of <\/p>\n

579
\n00:37:23,920 –> 00:37:28,120
\ndarkness, there was light.
\nYou know, just in passing, <\/p>\n

580
\n00:37:28,560 –> 00:37:31,600
\nthere’s a very interesting
\nstatement in the 24th chapter of<\/p>\n

581
\n00:37:31,600 –> 00:37:37,720
\nIsaiah in which actually our
\nwitness, at least in these <\/p>\n

582
\n00:37:37,720 –> 00:37:42,720
\ntimes, is the foreshadowed or
\nforetold predicted by eyes are <\/p>\n

583
\n00:37:42,720 –> 00:37:45,480
\nthe prophet.
\nThe chapter starts with the <\/p>\n

584
\n00:37:45,480 –> 00:37:48,640
\nemptying of the land of Israel,
\nscattering of the people of <\/p>\n

585
\n00:37:48,640 –> 00:37:52,040
\nIsrael because of their wicked,
\ntheir disobedience, their <\/p>\n

586
\n00:37:52,040 –> 00:37:55,760
\nwickedness.
\nAnd when that happens, we read <\/p>\n

587
\n00:37:55,760 –> 00:37:58,600
\nin verse 13, when it shall be in
\nthe midst of the land, among the<\/p>\n

588
\n00:37:58,600 –> 00:38:01,760
\npeople, the people of Israel,
\nthere shall be as the shaking of<\/p>\n

589
\n00:38:01,760 –> 00:38:04,680
\nan olive tree and as the
\ngleaming grapes when the vintage<\/p>\n

590
\n00:38:04,680 –> 00:38:08,400
\nis done, a few berries.
\nYou see, they shall lift up <\/p>\n

591
\n00:38:08,400 –> 00:38:11,040
\ntheir voice, they shall sing for
\nthe majesty of Yahweh. <\/p>\n

592
\n00:38:11,200 –> 00:38:13,400
\nThey shall cry around from the
\nsea. <\/p>\n

593
\n00:38:13,520 –> 00:38:21,080
\nIt means from the from land far
\nremoved, Australia, New Zealand,<\/p>\n

594
\n00:38:21,080 –> 00:38:24,160
\nAmerica, Canada.
\nThey shall lift up their voice, <\/p>\n

595
\n00:38:24,160 –> 00:38:28,080
\nthey shall sing for the majesty
\nof Yahweh, they shall fly all <\/p>\n

596
\n00:38:28,080 –> 00:38:31,560
\nout from the coasts for the far
\nextremities of the earth. <\/p>\n

597
\n00:38:32,200 –> 00:38:35,440
\nAnd the excitation is to glorify
\nHim in the fires. <\/p>\n

598
\n00:38:35,440 –> 00:38:37,840
\nVerse 15.
\nBut the word in the Hebrew is <\/p>\n

599
\n00:38:38,000 –> 00:38:42,080
\nyou.
\nYou, The lights glorify Him as <\/p>\n

600
\n00:38:42,080 –> 00:38:45,200
\nlights.
\nEven the name of Yahweh, Elohim <\/p>\n

601
\n00:38:45,200 –> 00:38:47,640
\nof Israel, glorify Him as
\nlights. <\/p>\n

602
\n00:38:48,080 –> 00:38:50,840
\nThat’s the point the brother
\nLloyd brought out when he <\/p>\n

603
\n00:38:50,960 –> 00:38:55,240
\nreferred us to the statement in
\nPhilippians where we should <\/p>\n

604
\n00:38:55,240 –> 00:38:58,640
\nshine as lights in the world.
\nThat’s what Enoch did. <\/p>\n

605
\n00:38:58,880 –> 00:39:01,880
\nHe walked with God.
\nHis way of life as well as his <\/p>\n

606
\n00:39:01,880 –> 00:39:06,640
\nwitness by the word of mouth was
\na testimony to the world that he<\/p>\n

607
\n00:39:06,640 –> 00:39:10,000
\nknew of what he was speaking.
\nHe walked with God. <\/p>\n

608
\n00:39:10,160 –> 00:39:13,640
\nHe lived with a purpose and that
\npurpose was clearly set before <\/p>\n

609
\n00:39:13,640 –> 00:39:17,040
\nhis mind.
\nIt was the Kingdom of God. <\/p>\n

610
\n00:39:17,600 –> 00:39:22,080
\nAnd so in that place in Hebrews
\nwe have Abel, and then Enoch, <\/p>\n

611
\n00:39:22,280 –> 00:39:25,560
\nand then the emphasis.
\nWithout faith it is impossible <\/p>\n

612
\n00:39:25,560 –> 00:39:29,160
\nto please God.
\nSo back in Genesis we read <\/p>\n

613
\n00:39:29,160 –> 00:39:31,200
\nconcerning Methuselah.
\nThe. <\/p>\n

614
\n00:39:31,200 –> 00:39:36,680
\nOldest man that ever lived.
\nHis name means when he died it <\/p>\n

615
\n00:39:36,680 –> 00:39:39,560
\nshall come.
\nAnd the record shows that <\/p>\n

616
\n00:39:39,560 –> 00:39:43,800
\nMethuselah died in the same year
\nas the flood. <\/p>\n

617
\n00:39:45,000 –> 00:39:48,000
\nWhat a dramatic moment that
\nwould have been for those who <\/p>\n

618
\n00:39:48,000 –> 00:39:53,720
\nunderstood.
\nHere is a boy or a man now whose<\/p>\n

619
\n00:39:53,720 –> 00:39:56,120
\nname means when he dies, it
\nshall come. <\/p>\n

620
\n00:39:57,040 –> 00:39:59,880
\nHe would know what that name
\nmeant because his father would <\/p>\n

621
\n00:39:59,880 –> 00:40:02,200
\nhave told him.
\nHis relations would have <\/p>\n

622
\n00:40:02,200 –> 00:40:07,120
\nunderstood that.
\nBut year after year after year <\/p>\n

623
\n00:40:07,320 –> 00:40:12,920
\nafter year, rolls die as far as
\nhe is concerned, for he lived a <\/p>\n

624
\n00:40:12,920 –> 00:40:15,560
\nnearly 1000 years.
\nNot quite. <\/p>\n

625
\n00:40:16,000 –> 00:40:21,280
\nHe didn’t live a Millennium.
\nHe lived, however, over 900 <\/p>\n

626
\n00:40:21,280 –> 00:40:24,320
\nyears, about 969 years of
\nplaying. <\/p>\n

627
\n00:40:24,520 –> 00:40:27,960
\nRemember writers down here, he
\nlived for that period of time, <\/p>\n

628
\n00:40:27,960 –> 00:40:31,000
\nyear after year after year,
\nuntil what would happen. <\/p>\n

629
\n00:40:31,240 –> 00:40:35,840
\nPeople would get used to it.
\nThey’d take it for granted. <\/p>\n

630
\n00:40:35,840 –> 00:40:41,160
\nI think he’s never going to die.
\nOr they would lose that sense of<\/p>\n

631
\n00:40:41,160 –> 00:40:44,520
\nurgency.
\nYou know, time and time again in<\/p>\n

632
\n00:40:44,520 –> 00:40:48,120
\nthe Bible that’s emphasized.
\nDo you remember when Joseph <\/p>\n

633
\n00:40:48,120 –> 00:40:50,280
\ndied?
\nJoseph died and he says God <\/p>\n

634
\n00:40:50,280 –> 00:40:53,200
\nshall surely visit you and you
\nshall take up my bones from <\/p>\n

635
\n00:40:53,200 –> 00:40:55,040
\nhence.
\nSo they put him in a coffin and <\/p>\n

636
\n00:40:55,040 –> 00:40:59,760
\nput him in in Egypt, in the land
\nof Goshen, in some dark recess. <\/p>\n

637
\n00:40:59,920 –> 00:41:03,080
\nAnd for year after year after
\nthat, I am sure people would <\/p>\n

638
\n00:41:03,080 –> 00:41:06,240
\nsay, look, that confident is a
\nwitness to us that God is going <\/p>\n

639
\n00:41:06,240 –> 00:41:08,840
\nto visit us.
\nBut by the time that God did <\/p>\n

640
\n00:41:08,840 –> 00:41:14,320
\nvisit them, they’d forgotten,
\nand Moses had to wake themselves<\/p>\n

641
\n00:41:14,320 –> 00:41:16,320
\nand wake them up to the
\nrealization of it. <\/p>\n

642
\n00:41:16,320 –> 00:41:19,600
\nThey’d forgotten and they were
\nfully immersed with the things <\/p>\n

643
\n00:41:19,600 –> 00:41:22,320
\nof Egypt.
\nThere was an evidence there. <\/p>\n

644
\n00:41:23,120 –> 00:41:26,600
\nTake the taking of Jericho.
\nYou’ll imagine the people locked<\/p>\n

645
\n00:41:26,600 –> 00:41:29,800
\nup in the city of Jericho, and
\nthey see the army of Israel <\/p>\n

646
\n00:41:29,880 –> 00:41:32,000
\nmoving across from the river
\nJordan. <\/p>\n

647
\n00:41:32,280 –> 00:41:35,080
\nBut the army only goes and it
\nencircles the city and goes <\/p>\n

648
\n00:41:35,080 –> 00:41:38,240
\nback.
\nCurious thing that next morning,<\/p>\n

649
\n00:41:38,360 –> 00:41:42,480
\nthe same thing, very curious.
\nThe 3rd morning, the 4th <\/p>\n

650
\n00:41:42,480 –> 00:41:45,840
\nmorning, they didn’t even worry
\nto watch it, the title. <\/p>\n

651
\n00:41:47,040 –> 00:41:50,000
\nAnd by the time the 7th day
\ncomes, and in fact the walls <\/p>\n

652
\n00:41:50,000 –> 00:41:52,520
\nfall down, they’re all taken off
\nguard. <\/p>\n

653
\n00:41:52,720 –> 00:41:56,400
\nThe walls like that.
\nThe voice of the trumpet, the <\/p>\n

654
\n00:41:56,400 –> 00:41:58,720
\ntrumpet of the apocalypse is
\nsounding full. <\/p>\n

655
\n00:41:59,080 –> 00:42:04,400
\nBut it’s been so continuous that
\nwe take it all for granted. 30 <\/p>\n

656
\n00:42:04,400 –> 00:42:08,480
\nyears ago, if we would see the
\nthings happening, what we see <\/p>\n

657
\n00:42:08,480 –> 00:42:13,600
\ntoday, we would be alerted.
\nAnd so we are to measure today. <\/p>\n

658
\n00:42:13,960 –> 00:42:19,800
\nBut they happen so continuously,
\nIran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Russia,<\/p>\n

659
\n00:42:19,960 –> 00:42:24,000
\nhere’s well the worst, the
\ncommon market, everything, so <\/p>\n

660
\n00:42:24,000 –> 00:42:28,760
\nmuch of it that we taking it all
\nfor granted and therefore that <\/p>\n

661
\n00:42:28,760 –> 00:42:31,000
\nwe may lose that sense of
\nurgency. <\/p>\n

662
\n00:42:31,160 –> 00:42:36,400
\nSo it was here.
\nSo it was here because the sons <\/p>\n

663
\n00:42:36,400 –> 00:42:42,960
\nof God did not take heed to that
\nLamac, we are told in verse 28 <\/p>\n

664
\n00:42:43,520 –> 00:42:49,240
\nand lived for 182 years and
\nbegan a son and he called his <\/p>\n

665
\n00:42:49,240 –> 00:42:54,080
\nname Noah, saying this plane
\nshall comfort us concerning our <\/p>\n

666
\n00:42:54,080 –> 00:42:57,760
\nwork and toil of our hands
\nbecause of the ground which <\/p>\n

667
\n00:42:57,760 –> 00:43:02,320
\nYahweh cursed.
\nThey next looking for the <\/p>\n

668
\n00:43:02,320 –> 00:43:07,160
\nMessiah.
\nHe’s looking for the seed that <\/p>\n

669
\n00:43:07,160 –> 00:43:13,440
\nwill blaze the serpent’s head.
\nHe calls his son’s name Noah. <\/p>\n

670
\n00:43:14,320 –> 00:43:18,760
\nAnd there was kept alive the
\nmessianic hope, and his <\/p>\n

671
\n00:43:18,760 –> 00:43:24,760
\nstatement is really a hope that
\nthis one Noah may be the <\/p>\n

672
\n00:43:24,760 –> 00:43:28,320
\npromised seed.
\nAnd in type he was the promised <\/p>\n

673
\n00:43:28,320 –> 00:43:31,560
\nseed.
\nAs we know, his name means rest.<\/p>\n

674
\n00:43:32,040 –> 00:43:36,120
\nAnd he brought rest and comfort
\nto that generation, when of <\/p>\n

675
\n00:43:36,120 –> 00:43:40,000
\ncourse it would be washed clean
\nby the flood. <\/p>\n

676
\n00:43:40,960 –> 00:43:45,360
\nAnd so that brings us to the 6th
\nchapter of Genesis and the <\/p>\n

677
\n00:43:45,360 –> 00:43:50,080
\nrecord of the flood.
\nWhen we come to the 6th chapter <\/p>\n

678
\n00:43:50,080 –> 00:43:54,000
\nof Genesis, there is a summary,
\nfirst of all of what has taken <\/p>\n

679
\n00:43:54,000 –> 00:43:57,120
\nplace.
\nIt came to pass when men began <\/p>\n

680
\n00:43:57,120 –> 00:43:58,840
\nto multiply on the face of the
\nearth. <\/p>\n

681
\n00:43:58,880 –> 00:44:02,280
\nNow in the Hebrew, I think I may
\nhave mentioned this before, the <\/p>\n

682
\n00:44:02,280 –> 00:44:05,760
\ndefinite article is given, and
\nin the Hebrew it reads, It came <\/p>\n

683
\n00:44:05,760 –> 00:44:09,560
\nto pass when the atom began to
\nmultiply upon the earth. <\/p>\n

684
\n00:44:10,040 –> 00:44:13,040
\nNow the atom is called male and
\nfemale. <\/p>\n

685
\n00:44:13,720 –> 00:44:17,000
\nSo it became to pass, when they
\nbegan to multiply upon the <\/p>\n

686
\n00:44:17,000 –> 00:44:18,680
\nearth, and daughters were born
\nunto them. <\/p>\n

687
\n00:44:19,200 –> 00:44:23,720
\nSo they not only had Cain and
\nAbel, they had daughters as well<\/p>\n

688
\n00:44:23,880 –> 00:44:28,120
\nthat were born unto them, that
\nthe sons of God saw the <\/p>\n

689
\n00:44:28,120 –> 00:44:31,160
\ndaughters of men.
\nAnd here again the word is <\/p>\n

690
\n00:44:31,160 –> 00:44:33,880
\nrendered elsewhere, the
\ndaughters of other men, that <\/p>\n

691
\n00:44:33,880 –> 00:44:36,880
\nthey were fair.
\nThis was the condition in which <\/p>\n

692
\n00:44:36,880 –> 00:44:40,760
\nthey saw themselves, and I think
\nit possibly would have been that<\/p>\n

693
\n00:44:40,880 –> 00:44:44,480
\ndaughter of Lamech, Naima, that
\nled the way in this. <\/p>\n

694
\n00:44:45,000 –> 00:44:48,480
\nThe statement they were fair,
\nactually in the Hebrew can be <\/p>\n

695
\n00:44:48,480 –> 00:44:50,840
\nrendered.
\nThey made themselves fair. <\/p>\n

696
\n00:44:51,840 –> 00:44:55,640
\nThey gave particular attention
\nto that aspect of life. <\/p>\n

697
\n00:44:56,280 –> 00:44:59,360
\nThey made themselves beautiful
\noutward, but not inward. <\/p>\n

698
\n00:45:00,080 –> 00:45:02,640
\nAnd that was a pity, and it
\nalways is a pity. <\/p>\n

699
\n00:45:03,280 –> 00:45:08,560
\nNothing wrong with beauty, I
\nlike it very much, but it’s <\/p>\n

700
\n00:45:08,720 –> 00:45:11,640
\nbeauty within that counts for
\nmost. <\/p>\n

701
\n00:45:12,400 –> 00:45:15,640
\nSarah was a beautiful woman, we
\nare taught. <\/p>\n

702
\n00:45:16,000 –> 00:45:19,120
\nShe was a beautiful woman in
\nevery regard. <\/p>\n

703
\n00:45:19,720 –> 00:45:23,960
\nShe was a beautiful woman
\ninwardly and outwardly as well, <\/p>\n

704
\n00:45:24,400 –> 00:45:28,200
\nand therefore she helped her
\nhusband in that way. <\/p>\n

705
\n00:45:29,240 –> 00:45:34,480
\nThe bride of Christ is mentioned
\nin the 45th chapter of the <\/p>\n

706
\n00:45:34,480 –> 00:45:39,240
\nPsalms, and it says concerning
\nher, the bride of Christ, verse <\/p>\n

707
\n00:45:39,240 –> 00:45:43,360
\n13, the King’s daughter is all
\nglorious within. <\/p>\n

708
\n00:45:44,680 –> 00:45:49,520
\nShe has a personality that is
\npleasing to her husband, Christ.<\/p>\n

709
\n00:45:50,240 –> 00:45:55,440
\nHe sees in her a reflection of
\nhimself, and she’s beautiful <\/p>\n

710
\n00:45:55,440 –> 00:45:58,120
\nwithin.
\nIt’s not me the port with <\/p>\n

711
\n00:45:58,120 –> 00:46:03,040
\noutside that counts.
\nIt’s real motivation from <\/p>\n

712
\n00:46:03,040 –> 00:46:06,480
\nwithin.
\nAnd that is the difference <\/p>\n

713
\n00:46:06,480 –> 00:46:10,120
\nbetween them and the daughters
\nof other men here who had made <\/p>\n

714
\n00:46:10,120 –> 00:46:13,960
\nthemselves fair externally but
\nnot internally. <\/p>\n

715
\n00:46:15,880 –> 00:46:18,720
\nNow archaeologists who have
\nexcavated an ear of the cow <\/p>\n

716
\n00:46:18,720 –> 00:46:22,040
\nthese and have suggested that
\nthis may have been the period <\/p>\n

717
\n00:46:22,040 –> 00:46:26,160
\nbefore the flood, point out that
\nthere is no real evidence of <\/p>\n

718
\n00:46:26,160 –> 00:46:29,520
\npaganism.
\nSo when we come to this part of <\/p>\n

719
\n00:46:29,520 –> 00:46:33,680
\nthe gods revelation, the 6th
\nchapter of Genesis, it’s not so <\/p>\n

720
\n00:46:33,680 –> 00:46:37,840
\nmuch a Pagan or idolatrous race
\nthat we’re considering, but a <\/p>\n

721
\n00:46:37,840 –> 00:46:41,320
\ngodless 1.
\nAnd that’s more difficult. <\/p>\n

722
\n00:46:41,440 –> 00:46:44,080
\nIt’s a godless one.
\nIt’s the worship of flesh. <\/p>\n

723
\n00:46:44,080 –> 00:46:48,160
\nIt’s the worship of self.
\nAnd so we have a a godless race.<\/p>\n

724
\n00:46:48,360 –> 00:46:51,240
\nWe have a people that are proud
\nand arrogant. <\/p>\n

725
\n00:46:51,960 –> 00:46:55,920
\nWe have a people that are
\nlawless and totally unconcerned <\/p>\n

726
\n00:46:55,920 –> 00:46:59,560
\nabout God, his revelation or his
\nwill. <\/p>\n

727
\n00:47:00,480 –> 00:47:03,640
\nWe have a people that are
\nprogressing in material things, <\/p>\n

728
\n00:47:03,640 –> 00:47:07,560
\nthat are clever in their way,
\nbut as far as spiritual <\/p>\n

729
\n00:47:07,560 –> 00:47:11,240
\nqualities are concerned, they
\nare utterly bankrupt. <\/p>\n

730
\n00:47:11,600 –> 00:47:15,320
\nThat’s the position that
\npresents itself in chapter 6, <\/p>\n

731
\n00:47:15,480 –> 00:47:19,600
\nwhich is the climax of what
\nwe’ve read in chapters four and <\/p>\n

732
\n00:47:19,600 –> 00:47:22,720
\nfive.
\nThere was also an ecclesial <\/p>\n

733
\n00:47:22,720 –> 00:47:26,520
\nproblem, that separateness was
\nbeing destroyed. <\/p>\n

734
\n00:47:27,040 –> 00:47:29,800
\nThe sons of God took the
\ndaughters of men and they <\/p>\n

735
\n00:47:29,800 –> 00:47:33,600
\nmarried them.
\nThere was a marriage problem, as<\/p>\n

736
\n00:47:33,600 –> 00:47:37,120
\nwe have it at the present time
\nthroughout the world, so that <\/p>\n

737
\n00:47:37,120 –> 00:47:40,840
\nthere was a breakdown even in
\nthe family life within the <\/p>\n

738
\n00:47:40,840 –> 00:47:44,400
\necclesia, so that there was a
\npicture of the world in the days<\/p>\n

739
\n00:47:44,400 –> 00:47:47,280
\nof Noah.
\nAnd Jesus Christ said as it was <\/p>\n

740
\n00:47:47,280 –> 00:47:50,440
\nin the days of Noah, so shall it
\nbe at the coming of the Son of <\/p>\n

741
\n00:47:50,440 –> 00:47:53,320
\nMan.
\nSo you had externally in the <\/p>\n

742
\n00:47:53,600 –> 00:47:57,880
\nfamily of Lamac and his
\ndescendants, an attitude of mind<\/p>\n

743
\n00:47:57,880 –> 00:48:00,640
\nand a way of life that is
\npermitted to us today. <\/p>\n

744
\n00:48:00,920 –> 00:48:06,200
\nAnd the challenge on this
\necclesia in the days of of Noah <\/p>\n

745
\n00:48:07,560 –> 00:48:12,760
\nin his day, the challenge on the
\necclesia right likewise was <\/p>\n

746
\n00:48:12,760 –> 00:48:17,320
\naffected thereby.
\nThe truth was corrupt, and <\/p>\n

747
\n00:48:17,320 –> 00:48:21,720
\npossibly the long lives of the
\nantediluvians had induced in <\/p>\n

748
\n00:48:21,720 –> 00:48:24,560
\nthem a sense of permanency and
\npower. <\/p>\n

749
\n00:48:25,400 –> 00:48:31,240
\nBe that as it may, God says
\nthis, My Spirit shall not always<\/p>\n

750
\n00:48:31,240 –> 00:48:36,920
\nstrive with man for that also He
\nis flesh. <\/p>\n

751
\n00:48:37,720 –> 00:48:45,080
\nGod is saying He’s only flair,
\nshe’s only flesh, and being only<\/p>\n

752
\n00:48:45,080 –> 00:48:51,320
\nflesh will get rid of Him.
\nYou see, when Abraham prayed <\/p>\n

753
\n00:48:51,320 –> 00:48:58,560
\nunto the Father, he said I am
\nbut dust and ashes, and he <\/p>\n

754
\n00:48:58,560 –> 00:49:03,120
\napproached the Father,
\nrecognizing his low estate. <\/p>\n

755
\n00:49:03,120 –> 00:49:06,520
\nI am but dust and ashes, and I
\npresume to come before this. <\/p>\n

756
\n00:49:07,120 –> 00:49:09,000
\nWhat do we do with dust and
\nashes? <\/p>\n

757
\n00:49:10,200 –> 00:49:12,920
\nYou did a vacuum cleaner, pick
\nit up and pulling it away. <\/p>\n

758
\n00:49:14,400 –> 00:49:19,360
\nAnd that’s all we’re worth
\nunless we put something in it. <\/p>\n

759
\n00:49:21,400 –> 00:49:26,000
\nNow what we can put in it we’ve
\nbeen virtually told this morning<\/p>\n

760
\n00:49:26,000 –> 00:49:30,960
\nin that reading from Jeremiah,
\nbecause there He tells us what <\/p>\n

761
\n00:49:30,960 –> 00:49:35,360
\nHe did for Israel, and we are in
\nthe place of Israel. <\/p>\n

762
\n00:49:35,880 –> 00:49:41,600
\nAnd in that 13th chapter of
\nJeremiah and the verse 11, we <\/p>\n

763
\n00:49:41,600 –> 00:49:44,480
\nread as the girdle cleaveth to
\nthe loins of a man. <\/p>\n

764
\n00:49:44,800 –> 00:49:48,240
\nSo have I caused the Cleveland
\nto be the whole House of Israel <\/p>\n

765
\n00:49:48,240 –> 00:49:54,040
\nand the whole House of Judah,
\nthat they might be unto me for a<\/p>\n

766
\n00:49:54,080 –> 00:49:58,800
\npeople, and a name, and a praise
\nand a glory. <\/p>\n

767
\n00:50:00,760 –> 00:50:02,880
\nBut they should live to
\nthemselves, they should live <\/p>\n

768
\n00:50:02,880 –> 00:50:05,120
\nunder God.
\nThey should build into their <\/p>\n

769
\n00:50:05,120 –> 00:50:08,320
\nlives the qualities of God.
\nThey should know what those <\/p>\n

770
\n00:50:08,320 –> 00:50:11,200
\nqualities are, be familiar with
\nthem, and build them into their <\/p>\n

771
\n00:50:11,200 –> 00:50:13,080
\nlives.
\nThen they will be for him a <\/p>\n

772
\n00:50:13,080 –> 00:50:15,560
\npeople and a name and a praise
\nand a glory. <\/p>\n

773
\n00:50:15,920 –> 00:50:19,760
\nBut he said they wouldn’t hear
\nbecause it’s by the process of <\/p>\n

774
\n00:50:19,760 –> 00:50:23,080
\nhearing that we will learn those
\nqualities and build them into <\/p>\n

775
\n00:50:23,080 –> 00:50:25,960
\nour lives.
\nThe more we study the Word of <\/p>\n

776
\n00:50:25,960 –> 00:50:29,280
\nGod objectively and think about
\nthat Word of God, the more our <\/p>\n

777
\n00:50:29,280 –> 00:50:32,840
\nmind is going to reflect to it.
\nAnd as a man thinketh in his <\/p>\n

778
\n00:50:32,840 –> 00:50:35,960
\nheart, so is he.
\nThe more we fill our mind with <\/p>\n

779
\n00:50:35,960 –> 00:50:39,040
\nthe things of God, the less we
\nwill have time to think of the <\/p>\n

780
\n00:50:39,040 –> 00:50:41,720
\nthings of flesh.
\nIt’s in the mind that the battle<\/p>\n

781
\n00:50:41,720 –> 00:50:45,400
\nof life has won or lost.
\nIn the mind where that is done, <\/p>\n

782
\n00:50:46,400 –> 00:50:48,600
\nI can say I’m going to do this
\nfor God. <\/p>\n

783
\n00:50:48,600 –> 00:50:51,360
\nI’m going to do that for God,
\nbut it’s in the mind that I’m <\/p>\n

784
\n00:50:51,360 –> 00:50:53,440
\ngoing to act for God or against
\nGod. <\/p>\n

785
\n00:50:54,240 –> 00:50:58,480
\nAnd if I allow things to creep
\ninto my mind, as unfortunately I<\/p>\n

786
\n00:50:58,480 –> 00:51:01,920
\ndo, if I allow that to happen,
\nthen I’m not going to be <\/p>\n

787
\n00:51:01,920 –> 00:51:06,200
\npleasing unto God because it’s
\nthere in the mind that my will <\/p>\n

788
\n00:51:06,200 –> 00:51:09,320
\ngovern my action.
\nNow you see, Israel was called <\/p>\n

789
\n00:51:09,320 –> 00:51:10,160
\nout.
\nWhat for? <\/p>\n

790
\n00:51:10,280 –> 00:51:13,480
\nWhy did He do that?
\nWhy did He pour out the flags on<\/p>\n

791
\n00:51:13,480 –> 00:51:15,800
\nEgypt?
\nWhy did He open the Red Sea and <\/p>\n

792
\n00:51:15,800 –> 00:51:18,040
\ntake them through?
\nWhy did He give the matter in <\/p>\n

793
\n00:51:18,040 –> 00:51:19,720
\nthe wilderness of water out of
\nthe lot? <\/p>\n

794
\n00:51:19,800 –> 00:51:27,160
\nWhat for?
\nThat they might be unto me a <\/p>\n

795
\n00:51:27,160 –> 00:51:34,320
\npeople and a name and a praise
\nand a glory, that they failed <\/p>\n

796
\n00:51:34,640 –> 00:51:40,360
\nand they rotted in the
\nwilderness. 2 million people on <\/p>\n

797
\n00:51:40,360 –> 00:51:43,680
\nthe other side of the Red Sea.
\nThe song of victory. <\/p>\n

798
\n00:51:44,280 –> 00:51:47,000
\nThe song of victory.
\nA glorious thing. <\/p>\n

799
\n00:51:47,000 –> 00:51:50,200
\nWe will choose Yahweh for his
\ngoodness. <\/p>\n

800
\n00:51:50,400 –> 00:51:54,400
\nThe horse and the rider.
\nHis clash into the sea we’ll <\/p>\n

801
\n00:51:54,400 –> 00:52:00,960
\nsave three days later.
\nYou’ve brought it in the real <\/p>\n

802
\n00:52:00,960 –> 00:52:04,560
\nearth that we might die.
\nThat’s flesh. <\/p>\n

803
\n00:52:05,240 –> 00:52:08,280
\nAnd here God is saying that he’s
\nonly flesh. <\/p>\n

804
\n00:52:09,200 –> 00:52:14,200
\nHe’s but flesh that his days
\nshall be 120 years. <\/p>\n

805
\n00:52:14,480 –> 00:52:18,640
\nSo is a set time now a set time
\nfor affirmation. <\/p>\n

806
\n00:52:19,560 –> 00:52:25,720
\nPeter says in the first of Peter
\nchapter 3 he says God waited in <\/p>\n

807
\n00:52:25,720 –> 00:52:29,360
\nthe days of Noah.
\nAnd in the second epistle of <\/p>\n

808
\n00:52:29,360 –> 00:52:33,840
\nPeter chapter 3, he said,
\naccount the long-suffering of <\/p>\n

809
\n00:52:33,840 –> 00:52:38,760
\nGod, our salvation, the 1st as
\nrelation of Noah’s day, the last<\/p>\n

810
\n00:52:38,760 –> 00:52:41,720
\ntwo hours.
\nThis is salvation. <\/p>\n

811
\n00:52:41,720 –> 00:52:47,720
\nGod’s God is waiting as he did
\nthen, but in the meantime there <\/p>\n

812
\n00:52:47,720 –> 00:52:52,960
\nis a time of salvation.
\nSo you see 120 years and there’s<\/p>\n

813
\n00:52:52,960 –> 00:52:57,280
\na set time, you know, there’s a
\nset time to favour Zion today. <\/p>\n

814
\n00:52:57,640 –> 00:53:02,880
\nWe’re told that in Psalm 102 and
\nthis term, the set time is used <\/p>\n

815
\n00:53:02,880 –> 00:53:10,040
\nfrequently in the Scriptures.
\nIn Psalm 102 and these words in <\/p>\n

816
\n00:53:10,040 –> 00:53:15,480
\nverse 13, thou shall the rise
\nand have mercy upon Zion for the<\/p>\n

817
\n00:53:15,480 –> 00:53:18,960
\ntime to say for her, yeah, the
\nset time has come. <\/p>\n

818
\n00:53:21,120 –> 00:53:26,560
\nThen again in context, verse 16,
\nwhen the Lord shall build up <\/p>\n

819
\n00:53:26,560 –> 00:53:32,760
\nZion, we seen that He shall
\nappear in His glory the next <\/p>\n

820
\n00:53:32,760 –> 00:53:36,480
\nverse.
\nThis shall be written for the <\/p>\n

821
\n00:53:36,480 –> 00:53:44,320
\ngeneration to come, not that
\ngeneration ours, and the people <\/p>\n

822
\n00:53:44,320 –> 00:53:46,880
\nthat shall be created shall
\npraise Him. <\/p>\n

823
\n00:53:47,720 –> 00:53:52,120
\nPsalm 75 at the set time that I
\nappoint, I will judge. <\/p>\n

824
\n00:53:53,040 –> 00:53:57,440
\nThat’s the House of Hebrews
\nChapter 11 and verse four. <\/p>\n

825
\n00:53:57,440 –> 00:54:01,480
\nI think it is.
\nThe times are thoroughly <\/p>\n

826
\n00:54:01,480 –> 00:54:07,200
\nadjusted to God’s command.
\nRomans Chapter 11 where the <\/p>\n

827
\n00:54:07,200 –> 00:54:11,280
\napostle Paul says if the casting
\naway of them be the riches of <\/p>\n

828
\n00:54:11,280 –> 00:54:15,440
\nthe world, what does the
\nreceiving of them be what we see<\/p>\n

829
\n00:54:15,440 –> 00:54:18,680
\nin Israel today?
\nPaul says what does that mean? <\/p>\n

830
\n00:54:18,920 –> 00:54:26,080
\nIt means life from the dead, the
\ntoken of the resurrection in the<\/p>\n

831
\n00:54:26,080 –> 00:54:30,040
\nland of Israel today, the total
\nof the time of the end, the <\/p>\n

832
\n00:54:30,040 –> 00:54:34,920
\nwitness of Almighty God to ask
\nhim for the whole that he’s <\/p>\n

833
\n00:54:34,920 –> 00:54:37,640
\nabout to move.
\nAs it was in the days of Noah, <\/p>\n

834
\n00:54:37,640 –> 00:54:43,560
\n120 years were appointed and
\nwhat happened then we hope to <\/p>\n

835
\n00:54:43,560 –> 00:54:59,360
\noutline tomorrow.
