\n00:00:03,960 –> 00:00:05,440
\nWelcome to Good Christophian
\nTalks. <\/p>\n

2
\n00:00:05,920 –> 00:00:08,600
\nThank you for joining us this
\nweek on this podcast. <\/p>\n

3
\n00:00:08,600 –> 00:00:11,960
\nWe select one talk a week to
\nhelp us get the Bible in our <\/p>\n

4
\n00:00:11,960 –> 00:00:16,000
\nDaily News feed.
\nEach week we post a talk that we<\/p>\n

5
\n00:00:16,000 –> 00:00:19,000
\npreviewed from suggestions sent
\nin by listeners from around the <\/p>\n

6
\n00:00:19,000 –> 00:00:21,560
\nworld.
\nThen we record a short intro <\/p>\n

7
\n00:00:21,560 –> 00:00:25,000
\nbeforehand as a personalized
\nrecommendation to you on why we <\/p>\n

8
\n00:00:25,000 –> 00:00:28,000
\nare sharing the talk.
\nAnd now let’s talk more about <\/p>\n

9
\n00:00:28,000 –> 00:00:35,920
\nthis week’s talk.
\nHello, all, and welcome back. <\/p>\n

10
\n00:00:36,320 –> 00:00:41,560
\nThis is brother Benji.
\nThis week’s talk will be a class<\/p>\n

11
\n00:00:41,560 –> 00:00:47,280
\ngiven by brother Dave Pogson.
\nThis talk is the final in a <\/p>\n

12
\n00:00:47,280 –> 00:00:51,160
\nseries of 6, which you’ll be
\nable to find over on our <\/p>\n

13
\n00:00:51,160 –> 00:00:55,160
\nextended podcast.
\nWe’re not exactly sure where <\/p>\n

14
\n00:00:55,160 –> 00:00:58,600
\nthis series was given, but it
\nseems it could have been given <\/p>\n

15
\n00:00:58,600 –> 00:01:02,120
\nat the Coorparoo Ecclesia in
\nQueensland as a Bible class <\/p>\n

16
\n00:01:02,120 –> 00:01:06,360
\nseries.
\nThis series is on the atonement.<\/p>\n

17
\n00:01:08,760 –> 00:01:13,760
\nBrother Dave’s understanding and
\nexposition of the atonement is <\/p>\n

18
\n00:01:14,120 –> 00:01:17,920
\nexciting.
\nSimply put, he makes it simple <\/p>\n

19
\n00:01:19,080 –> 00:01:23,360
\nsuch that it often caused me
\ngreat joy in finally grasping a <\/p>\n

20
\n00:01:23,360 –> 00:01:26,840
\nconcept that was otherwise
\nincomprehensible. <\/p>\n

21
\n00:01:29,120 –> 00:01:34,920
\nI love Brother Dave’s analogies.
\nThey’re relevant, engaging, and <\/p>\n

22
\n00:01:34,920 –> 00:01:40,080
\ndeeply aid your comprehension.
\nThis series will fill you with <\/p>\n

23
\n00:01:40,080 –> 00:01:44,320
\nhappiness, joy, relief, and
\nunderstanding. <\/p>\n

24
\n00:01:45,320 –> 00:01:50,000
\nWith that said, I’ll give you
\nover to our Brother Dave for his<\/p>\n

25
\n00:01:50,200 –> 00:01:56,160
\nsixth Atonement study.
\nIf we’d like to open at Romans <\/p>\n

26
\n00:01:56,160 –> 00:02:01,760
\n3, where we were and where we
\nfinished last time, that’s a <\/p>\n

27
\n00:02:01,760 –> 00:02:05,080
\nlittle bit of unfinished work
\nthere to be done. <\/p>\n

28
\n00:02:05,080 –> 00:02:11,120
\nApparently I turned over a
\ncouple of charts and we missed a<\/p>\n

29
\n00:02:11,120 –> 00:02:14,640
\nbit.
\nAnd of course, in Romans 3, we <\/p>\n

30
\n00:02:14,640 –> 00:02:17,840
\nare dealing with what all
\nscholars in and out of the <\/p>\n

31
\n00:02:17,840 –> 00:02:24,280
\ntruth, regardless of the most
\nimportant subject, important, a <\/p>\n

32
\n00:02:24,320 –> 00:02:28,960
\nverse on the atonement.
\nOK, So if we just open up Romans<\/p>\n

33
\n00:02:28,960 –> 00:02:41,840
\n3, see where we are, can you
\nstill say, OK, so let’s just <\/p>\n

34
\n00:02:42,360 –> 00:02:46,400
\ncapture the flow of thought.
\nI mightn’t finish everything <\/p>\n

35
\n00:02:46,400 –> 00:02:51,440
\ntonight, but it’s very important
\nthat we finish these verses in <\/p>\n

36
\n00:02:51,440 –> 00:02:53,200
\nRomans chapter 3.
\nOK? <\/p>\n

37
\n00:02:53,720 –> 00:02:56,040
\nSo I just grinded into you a
\nlittle bit. <\/p>\n

38
\n00:02:56,040 –> 00:02:58,760
\nWe’ll just go over it a little
\nbit, OK? <\/p>\n

39
\n00:02:58,760 –> 00:03:04,560
\nIf we just pick up verses 18 and
\n19 and Roman 19 and 20 of Romans<\/p>\n

40
\n00:03:04,560 –> 00:03:08,960
\n3 says you can never be
\npronounced righteous by deeds of<\/p>\n

41
\n00:03:08,960 –> 00:03:12,640
\nlaw.
\nRemember the background deeds of<\/p>\n

42
\n00:03:12,640 –> 00:03:17,240
\nlaw meant earning, OK?
\nThat was a Jewish wrong doctrine<\/p>\n

43
\n00:03:17,880 –> 00:03:21,520
\nthat you could earn acceptance
\nin God’s sight, right? <\/p>\n

44
\n00:03:21,520 –> 00:03:23,560
\nYou could earn it.
\nThat’s a completely wrong <\/p>\n

45
\n00:03:23,560 –> 00:03:26,880
\nconcept.
\nIt can’t be earned whether it’s <\/p>\n

46
\n00:03:26,880 –> 00:03:29,720
\nby grace or their concept of
\nearning. <\/p>\n

47
\n00:03:30,200 –> 00:03:33,880
\nYes, it involves obedience.
\nYes, they both agree it involves<\/p>\n

48
\n00:03:33,880 –> 00:03:37,320
\nforgiveness.
\nThey both agree, but their bases<\/p>\n

49
\n00:03:37,720 –> 00:03:42,600
\nare completely different.
\nThe Jewish view was man was <\/p>\n

50
\n00:03:42,600 –> 00:03:47,640
\ncreated with the ability to
\nperform well enough to earn <\/p>\n

51
\n00:03:47,640 –> 00:03:51,280
\neternal life.
\nThe argument of the apostle Paul<\/p>\n

52
\n00:03:51,280 –> 00:03:53,920
\nis that that’s absolute
\nnonsense. <\/p>\n

53
\n00:03:54,160 –> 00:03:57,920
\nOK, The Law of Moses condemned
\neverybody. <\/p>\n

54
\n00:03:58,240 –> 00:04:02,200
\nYou had to keep it wholly and
\nperfectly and continuously <\/p>\n

55
\n00:04:02,520 –> 00:04:06,000
\nbefore you could ever have said
\nto earner, and no one was ever <\/p>\n

56
\n00:04:06,000 –> 00:04:10,040
\ncapable of doing that.
\nSo the idea of earning his <\/p>\n

57
\n00:04:10,040 –> 00:04:12,680
\nargument right through Romans is
\nis out. <\/p>\n

58
\n00:04:12,920 –> 00:04:19,160
\nSo, but the argument in Romans
\nis all about the Jews or man’s <\/p>\n

59
\n00:04:19,160 –> 00:04:22,960
\nmethod of in becoming righteous
\nbefore the judge. <\/p>\n

60
\n00:04:23,720 –> 00:04:29,360
\nAnd Paul’s argument Now God’s
\ngot a method that he’s given you<\/p>\n

61
\n00:04:29,800 –> 00:04:32,040
\nand you’re going to take on
\nboard that method. <\/p>\n

62
\n00:04:32,320 –> 00:04:37,200
\nAnd that method is based on
\nfaith in Jesus Christ, in God’s <\/p>\n

63
\n00:04:37,200 –> 00:04:43,520
\nsent, and he sent that Jesus
\nChrist as a perfect example of <\/p>\n

64
\n00:04:43,520 –> 00:04:47,800
\nthe method, a perfect example of
\nthe method. <\/p>\n

65
\n00:04:48,160 –> 00:04:50,800
\nAnd it was a method of
\ndependence upon God. <\/p>\n

66
\n00:04:50,840 –> 00:04:55,960
\nAnd in Christ it produced a
\nperfect result in US using the <\/p>\n

67
\n00:04:55,960 –> 00:04:59,360
\nsame method.
\nWe don’t produce a perfect <\/p>\n

68
\n00:04:59,360 –> 00:05:04,400
\nresult, but we acknowledge that.
\nBut because we could see in <\/p>\n

69
\n00:05:04,400 –> 00:05:09,880
\nChrist a perfect example of the
\npower of God’s Word right and <\/p>\n

70
\n00:05:09,880 –> 00:05:15,160
\ndependence upon that right, He
\nforgives that. <\/p>\n

71
\n00:05:15,160 –> 00:05:18,960
\nWhat?
\nChrist’s perfect demonstration <\/p>\n

72
\n00:05:18,960 –> 00:05:24,120
\nof the divine method of
\nsalvation becomes a basis for <\/p>\n

73
\n00:05:24,120 –> 00:05:30,480
\nwhich God will accept lesser men
\nand women that endeavour to walk<\/p>\n

74
\n00:05:31,040 –> 00:05:33,760
\nand follow in the steps of Jesus
\nChrist. <\/p>\n

75
\n00:05:34,240 –> 00:05:40,720
\nSo that’s it in simple terms.
\nSo he says, so he says in verse <\/p>\n

76
\n00:05:41,320 –> 00:05:45,640
\n21, but now that is with the
\ncoming of Christ, there is a <\/p>\n

77
\n00:05:45,640 –> 00:05:49,680
\nrighteousness of God.
\nThis God’s method for you to be <\/p>\n

78
\n00:05:49,680 –> 00:05:54,600
\nrighteous, that’s a path without
\nthe law has been manifested, all<\/p>\n

79
\n00:05:55,400 –> 00:05:57,160
\nright.
\nChrist has lived it out and <\/p>\n

80
\n00:05:57,160 –> 00:06:00,680
\nestablished it.
\nI was witnessed by the law and <\/p>\n

81
\n00:06:00,680 –> 00:06:02,560
\nthe prophets.
\nThe whole Old Testament from <\/p>\n

82
\n00:06:02,560 –> 00:06:05,400
\nbeginning to end spoke about it
\nall the time. <\/p>\n

83
\n00:06:06,440 –> 00:06:10,320
\nVerse 22, It’s a righteousness
\nof God. <\/p>\n

84
\n00:06:10,320 –> 00:06:14,160
\nIt’s a divine method for you to
\nbe pronounced righteous, but <\/p>\n

85
\n00:06:14,160 –> 00:06:17,680
\nit’s conditional.
\nYou never earn it, but it is <\/p>\n

86
\n00:06:17,680 –> 00:06:21,440
\nconditional, highly conditional.
\nYou must never confuse <\/p>\n

87
\n00:06:21,680 –> 00:06:25,600
\nconditions with earning.
\nYou find the churches out there <\/p>\n

88
\n00:06:25,600 –> 00:06:27,480
\nand everything’s got to be love
\nand grace. <\/p>\n

89
\n00:06:27,800 –> 00:06:32,160
\nThey say any sort of conditions
\nat all constitutes works, and <\/p>\n

90
\n00:06:32,160 –> 00:06:34,480
\nit’s the opposite of grace.
\nThey got it all wrong. <\/p>\n

91
\n00:06:34,600 –> 00:06:36,880
\nIt’s completely inconsistent
\nwith the Bible. <\/p>\n

92
\n00:06:37,680 –> 00:06:41,760
\nSure, salvation can never be
\nheard, but it is conditional. <\/p>\n

93
\n00:06:41,760 –> 00:06:45,200
\nAnd here’s the condition.
\nYou’ve got to have faith in <\/p>\n

94
\n00:06:45,200 –> 00:06:49,440
\nJesus Christ and what he stands
\nfor and what he’s done and what <\/p>\n

95
\n00:06:49,440 –> 00:06:53,040
\nGod has done with him, which he
\ngoes on to describe what God has<\/p>\n

96
\n00:06:53,040 –> 00:06:56,200
\ndone with him.
\nAnd this righteousness comes <\/p>\n

97
\n00:06:56,200 –> 00:07:03,320
\nunder all those 22 and upon all
\nthem, that faith, Jew as well as<\/p>\n

98
\n00:07:03,320 –> 00:07:04,920
\nGentile.
\nIt’s for everybody. <\/p>\n

99
\n00:07:05,120 –> 00:07:07,160
\nFor there’s no difference
\nbetween Jew and Gentile. <\/p>\n

100
\n00:07:07,160 –> 00:07:09,200
\nWhat?
\nWell, they’ve all Jew and <\/p>\n

101
\n00:07:09,200 –> 00:07:12,440
\nGentile, they’ve seen, and
\nthey’ve all come short of the <\/p>\n

102
\n00:07:12,440 –> 00:07:15,640
\nglory of God.
\nThey disobey God and they’ve <\/p>\n

103
\n00:07:15,640 –> 00:07:18,440
\nfailed the manifest God for
\nwhich they’ve been created. <\/p>\n

104
\n00:07:18,440 –> 00:07:24,120
\nFor therefore you can’t earn it.
\nIt can’t be earned because <\/p>\n

105
\n00:07:24,120 –> 00:07:27,920
\nthere’s always the element of
\nfailure and cursed is everyone <\/p>\n

106
\n00:07:27,920 –> 00:07:30,480
\nthat continueth not in all
\nthings which are written in the <\/p>\n

107
\n00:07:30,480 –> 00:07:36,200
\nbook of the law to do them.
\nAnd so verse 24 says this method<\/p>\n

108
\n00:07:36,200 –> 00:07:41,400
\nof God we are, we have been
\npronounced righteous freely. <\/p>\n

109
\n00:07:41,720 –> 00:07:44,640
\nThat’s opposite to earning,
\nisn’t it, right. <\/p>\n

110
\n00:07:45,280 –> 00:07:48,600
\nWe have been pronounced
\nrighteous freely by God’s grace,<\/p>\n

111
\n00:07:49,160 –> 00:07:53,320
\nsure, but it’s conditional.
\nIt’s through the redemption or <\/p>\n

112
\n00:07:53,320 –> 00:07:56,640
\nsalvation that is in Christ
\nJesus. <\/p>\n

113
\n00:07:57,720 –> 00:08:03,000
\nGod has established a method and
\nit all centres around Christ <\/p>\n

114
\n00:08:03,360 –> 00:08:07,280
\nliving it out perfectly.
\nAnd because He’s lived it out <\/p>\n

115
\n00:08:07,280 –> 00:08:13,400
\npurpose purposely, perfectly, He
\ncalls upon all men to identify <\/p>\n

116
\n00:08:13,720 –> 00:08:18,240
\nwith that perfect manifestation
\nof God’s method and he’ll accept<\/p>\n

117
\n00:08:18,240 –> 00:08:21,640
\nthem.
\nThen we we got the verse 25 and <\/p>\n

118
\n00:08:21,640 –> 00:08:27,640
\nwe’d miss verse 26 and verse 26
\nas a repeat of verse 25. <\/p>\n

119
\n00:08:27,640 –> 00:08:33,799
\nBut let’s just go through 25 is
\nthe most important verse we have<\/p>\n

120
\n00:08:33,799 –> 00:08:38,200
\non the subject.
\nIt’s talking about Jesus Christ <\/p>\n

121
\n00:08:38,200 –> 00:08:43,120
\nand what God had done with him.
\nVerse 25 whom God has set forth,<\/p>\n

122
\n00:08:44,240 –> 00:08:47,920
\nso God has set him forth, The
\nMartian says for a dying, but it<\/p>\n

123
\n00:08:47,920 –> 00:08:50,760
\nmakes no difference.
\nGod has set him forth. <\/p>\n

124
\n00:08:50,760 –> 00:08:55,200
\nSome translator, he’s been
\npublicly set forth, so God sets <\/p>\n

125
\n00:08:55,200 –> 00:08:59,120
\nhim forth and he sets him forth
\nto be a propitiation. <\/p>\n

126
\n00:09:00,240 –> 00:09:06,120
\nAnd the word propitiation is
\nactually a Greek word used in <\/p>\n

127
\n00:09:06,120 –> 00:09:11,560
\nGreek religions whereby they
\nplacated the wrath of the gods <\/p>\n

128
\n00:09:11,560 –> 00:09:16,000
\nby their particular sacrifices.
\nIn other words, they went <\/p>\n

129
\n00:09:16,000 –> 00:09:21,320
\nthrough a protocol by which they
\nwere able to placate the wrath <\/p>\n

130
\n00:09:21,320 –> 00:09:25,720
\nof Zeus or or whatever the Greek
\ngods were at the time. <\/p>\n

131
\n00:09:25,720 –> 00:09:31,640
\nOK, but the word hillisterion
\npropitiation is hillisterion and<\/p>\n

132
\n00:09:31,640 –> 00:09:37,360
\nit means the place of favour.
\nAnd it’s used in the Septuagint <\/p>\n

133
\n00:09:37,360 –> 00:09:41,560
\nto translate the Hebrew
\nKapoorith, the place of <\/p>\n

134
\n00:09:41,560 –> 00:09:44,080
\ncovering.
\nAnd of course the Kapoorath was <\/p>\n

135
\n00:09:44,080 –> 00:09:47,920
\nthe mercy seat on top of the IT
\nwas the lid on top of the ark, <\/p>\n

136
\n00:09:48,480 –> 00:09:51,120
\nright?
\nAnd Gods was in between the <\/p>\n

137
\n00:09:51,120 –> 00:09:54,600
\nCaribbean, represented by his
\nglory in between the Caribbean. <\/p>\n

138
\n00:09:54,920 –> 00:09:57,680
\nAnd that’s where the high priest
\nhad to come each year with the <\/p>\n

139
\n00:09:57,680 –> 00:10:02,080
\nblood, all right, and sprinkle
\nit before and on the mercy seat <\/p>\n

140
\n00:10:02,720 –> 00:10:07,480
\non the Day of Atonement to make
\natonement, to seek to procure <\/p>\n

141
\n00:10:07,480 –> 00:10:11,000
\nthe forgiveness of all Israel’s
\nsins. <\/p>\n

142
\n00:10:11,560 –> 00:10:15,480
\nSo it’s the place of
\nforgiveness, if you like. <\/p>\n

143
\n00:10:16,160 –> 00:10:18,840
\nOK.
\nAnd in Hebrews it’s actually <\/p>\n

144
\n00:10:18,840 –> 00:10:24,600
\ncalled the throne of grace.
\nHence the the English <\/p>\n

145
\n00:10:24,600 –> 00:10:28,640
\ntranslators have called them
\ncalled the hillisteria on the <\/p>\n

146
\n00:10:29,080 –> 00:10:31,880
\ncovering.
\nThey’ve translated it mercy seat<\/p>\n

147
\n00:10:32,240 –> 00:10:35,440
\nand they’ve taken that from
\nHebrews, the end of Hebrews <\/p>\n

148
\n00:10:35,440 –> 00:10:42,480
\nchapter 4, the throne of grace.
\nSo Christ, God has set forth <\/p>\n

149
\n00:10:42,560 –> 00:10:46,160
\nJesus Christ as the place of
\nmeeting. <\/p>\n

150
\n00:10:46,320 –> 00:10:50,600
\nI’ll meet you here.
\nIt says he, here is the <\/p>\n

151
\n00:10:50,600 –> 00:10:54,280
\npropitiation.
\nActually it’s the whole thing. <\/p>\n

152
\n00:10:54,720 –> 00:10:59,240
\nBut this is the hard point.
\nHere was where there was a moral<\/p>\n

153
\n00:10:59,240 –> 00:11:04,000
\nvictory of the power of God’s
\nthinking, of the power of <\/p>\n

154
\n00:11:04,000 –> 00:11:08,400
\nnatural thinking.
\nAt last another Adam had come <\/p>\n

155
\n00:11:08,840 –> 00:11:15,200
\nand had gained a victory over
\nsin by taking on board because <\/p>\n

156
\n00:11:15,200 –> 00:11:18,760
\nhe had the capacity to do it,
\ntaking on board the divine <\/p>\n

157
\n00:11:18,760 –> 00:11:21,880
\nmorality.
\nAnd it proved with all its <\/p>\n

158
\n00:11:21,880 –> 00:11:28,240
\ntemptations and all its trials,
\nit proved triumphant, a unique <\/p>\n

159
\n00:11:28,640 –> 00:11:32,200
\naccomplishment.
\nHow wrought by God. <\/p>\n

160
\n00:11:32,640 –> 00:11:34,560
\nAnd God says, I’ll meet you
\nthere. <\/p>\n

161
\n00:11:35,960 –> 00:11:40,200
\nThat’s the place of mercy.
\nThat’s the place of covering, <\/p>\n

162
\n00:11:40,720 –> 00:11:42,680
\nand that’s what precious
\nremains. <\/p>\n

163
\n00:11:43,240 –> 00:11:48,720
\nIt’s used in first John chapter,
\nthe early verses of first John <\/p>\n

164
\n00:11:48,960 –> 00:11:53,840
\nchapter 2.
\nIt’s also used in Hebrews 9 to <\/p>\n

165
\n00:11:53,840 –> 00:11:59,920
\ntranslate the mercy seat of the
\nthe Tabernacle of the Lord of <\/p>\n

166
\n00:11:59,920 –> 00:12:02,360
\nMoses.
\nSo it’s the place. <\/p>\n

167
\n00:12:02,360 –> 00:12:05,880
\nSo Jesus Christ crucified is the
\nplace. <\/p>\n

168
\n00:12:06,520 –> 00:12:09,960
\nI’ll meet you there.
\nWhy does God meet you there? <\/p>\n

169
\n00:12:09,960 –> 00:12:14,520
\nWell, he says, and he says, I’ll
\nmeet you there through faith. <\/p>\n

170
\n00:12:14,520 –> 00:12:16,720
\nYou can only come there by
\nfaith. <\/p>\n

171
\n00:12:16,720 –> 00:12:19,480
\nYou’ve got to believe what this
\nis all about, OK? <\/p>\n

172
\n00:12:20,080 –> 00:12:22,680
\nYou’re going to believe this.
\nI’ll meet you there. <\/p>\n

173
\n00:12:22,680 –> 00:12:27,600
\nIf you believe what’s going on,
\nI’ll meet you there. <\/p>\n

174
\n00:12:28,440 –> 00:12:31,480
\nWhy does he meet him there?
\nWell, it goes on to say <\/p>\n

175
\n00:12:32,240 –> 00:12:36,000
\nappreciation through faith in
\nhis blood or his death. <\/p>\n

176
\n00:12:36,000 –> 00:12:37,840
\nHis blood simply means that
\ndeath. <\/p>\n

177
\n00:12:38,240 –> 00:12:44,880
\nOK, what did this death do?
\nIt says here it was to declare <\/p>\n

178
\n00:12:45,240 –> 00:12:47,720
\nhis that is, God’s
\nrighteousness. <\/p>\n

179
\n00:12:47,960 –> 00:12:53,640
\nIt was to declare God’s personal
\nrighteousness, to declare that <\/p>\n

180
\n00:12:53,640 –> 00:13:00,800
\nGod is right and just and holy
\nand fair and equitable in all <\/p>\n

181
\n00:13:00,800 –> 00:13:07,880
\nthat He does, particularly in
\nhis judgement on sin and <\/p>\n

182
\n00:13:07,880 –> 00:13:14,720
\nparticularly in his mercy toward
\nthose who confess their <\/p>\n

183
\n00:13:14,720 –> 00:13:19,040
\nposition.
\nSo in both those areas, plus <\/p>\n

184
\n00:13:19,040 –> 00:13:24,520
\nevery other area, God’s
\nrighteous and that declares that<\/p>\n

185
\n00:13:24,520 –> 00:13:29,160
\nGod’s righteous.
\nI want you to pick up something <\/p>\n

186
\n00:13:29,160 –> 00:13:31,400
\nI never mentioned about that
\nword declare. <\/p>\n

187
\n00:13:31,920 –> 00:13:38,320
\nWe said that word to declare,
\nand that’s the big picture <\/p>\n

188
\n00:13:38,320 –> 00:13:40,680
\nreally.
\nThat’s where we’re going and <\/p>\n

189
\n00:13:40,680 –> 00:13:44,440
\nthat’s where we finish up really
\non that particular thing. <\/p>\n

190
\n00:13:44,760 –> 00:13:49,280
\nThe individual has to have faith
\nin the heart, in Christ, His <\/p>\n

191
\n00:13:49,280 –> 00:13:52,920
\ndevelopment, His baptism, His
\nministry, His death, His <\/p>\n

192
\n00:13:52,920 –> 00:13:57,320
\nresurrection, His elevation to
\nthe right hand of the Father as <\/p>\n

193
\n00:13:57,680 –> 00:14:03,360
\nour mediator.
\nHere is our propitiatory, he <\/p>\n

194
\n00:14:03,400 –> 00:14:08,080
\ndoes a propitiatory work.
\nHe declares that God’s righteous<\/p>\n

195
\n00:14:08,680 –> 00:14:13,200
\nand if you believe that, if you
\nbelieve it, God sends <\/p>\n

196
\n00:14:13,200 –> 00:14:17,840
\nforgiveness upon you, called
\nrighteousness upon all, upon all<\/p>\n

197
\n00:14:17,840 –> 00:14:21,880
\nthem they believe.
\nOK, now that word declare. <\/p>\n

198
\n00:14:22,160 –> 00:14:26,000
\nYou got your pencils.
\nSay the word declare to declare <\/p>\n

199
\n00:14:26,400 –> 00:14:29,000
\nin my Bible.
\nIf you’ve got the same Bible <\/p>\n

200
\n00:14:29,840 –> 00:14:36,000
\nright next to it, there is a
\nquote and my eyes can’t read it,<\/p>\n

201
\n00:14:36,000 –> 00:14:39,880
\nbut I think it’s Psalm 98, verse
\n2. <\/p>\n

202
\n00:14:41,240 –> 00:14:46,000
\nNow I pointed out that the word
\ndeclare is a very important word<\/p>\n

203
\n00:14:46,000 –> 00:14:52,160
\nin this phrase to declare, pick
\nup the word declare, OK? <\/p>\n

204
\n00:14:52,800 –> 00:14:56,400
\nIt doesn’t mean to speak
\nsomething out to declare it by <\/p>\n

205
\n00:14:56,400 –> 00:14:58,040
\nthat.
\nIt doesn’t mean that at all. <\/p>\n

206
\n00:14:58,400 –> 00:15:03,800
\nOK, it might involve that, but
\nthat’s not its basic meaning. <\/p>\n

207
\n00:15:04,520 –> 00:15:12,760
\nThe basic meaning is to exhibit
\nthe word declare and daxis means<\/p>\n

208
\n00:15:12,760 –> 00:15:20,600
\nto exhibit or to show.
\nTo exhibit or put on show and <\/p>\n

209
\n00:15:20,600 –> 00:15:26,720
\none translation translated
\ndemonstrate and I’ll be talked <\/p>\n

210
\n00:15:26,720 –> 00:15:30,640
\nabout going to to AG grip.
\nAnd you, I think you go to a <\/p>\n

211
\n00:15:30,640 –> 00:15:32,600
\nplace called Echo.
\nWhat a funny name. <\/p>\n

212
\n00:15:32,920 –> 00:15:35,800
\nYou Queenslanders have got funny
\nnames up here, I can tell you. <\/p>\n

213
\n00:15:36,440 –> 00:15:42,480
\nAnyway, in other words, the word
\nmeans to demonstrate something. <\/p>\n

214
\n00:15:42,480 –> 00:15:45,080
\nOK, that’s when you go to a show
\nand you look at certain <\/p>\n

215
\n00:15:45,920 –> 00:15:47,920
\nmachinery being working.
\nGet the idea? <\/p>\n

216
\n00:15:48,320 –> 00:15:53,280
\nSo what Christ is doing when
\nhe’s He lived his life and was <\/p>\n

217
\n00:15:53,280 –> 00:15:55,920
\nperfectly obedient under the
\ndeath of the cross. <\/p>\n

218
\n00:15:56,400 –> 00:16:07,480
\nHe demonstrating God’s personal
\nrighteousness as in respect to <\/p>\n

219
\n00:16:07,480 –> 00:16:13,280
\nsin and in respect to obedience
\nand mercy. <\/p>\n

220
\n00:16:15,160 –> 00:16:20,960
\nHe was proud.
\nHe would be righteous in his <\/p>\n

221
\n00:16:20,960 –> 00:16:23,760
\njudgement on sin.
\nYou know, and I think we quoted <\/p>\n

222
\n00:16:23,760 –> 00:16:26,560
\nRoman sex.
\nThe wages of sin is death. <\/p>\n

223
\n00:16:27,040 –> 00:16:31,240
\nThat’s righteous.
\nAnd he was and Christ was <\/p>\n

224
\n00:16:31,240 –> 00:16:37,240
\ndemonstrating that, OK.
\nAnd the gift of God is eternal <\/p>\n

225
\n00:16:37,240 –> 00:16:39,720
\nlife through Jesus Christ our
\nLord. <\/p>\n

226
\n00:16:40,360 –> 00:16:44,920
\nThat’s done righteously.
\nWe can forgive our kids, <\/p>\n

227
\n00:16:44,920 –> 00:16:49,440
\nsometimes quite wrongly.
\nYou mightn’t extract from them <\/p>\n

228
\n00:16:49,440 –> 00:16:52,200
\nproper recognition of what
\nthey’ve done wrong. <\/p>\n

229
\n00:16:52,200 –> 00:16:55,200
\nYou might just say, oh, that’s
\nthem and let them get away with <\/p>\n

230
\n00:16:55,200 –> 00:16:57,360
\nit.
\nAnd you’re only doing the kids <\/p>\n

231
\n00:16:57,360 –> 00:17:00,120
\nharm if you forgive them on a
\nwrong basis. <\/p>\n

232
\n00:17:00,320 –> 00:17:02,200
\nThey’re going to be forgiven on
\na right basis. <\/p>\n

233
\n00:17:02,800 –> 00:17:08,720
\nAnd God only forgives us when we
\nconfess the facts involved and <\/p>\n

234
\n00:17:08,720 –> 00:17:11,720
\nsee our position.
\nThen he’ll forgive. <\/p>\n

235
\n00:17:11,839 –> 00:17:14,079
\nOtherwise, it’s unrighteous
\nforgiveness. <\/p>\n

236
\n00:17:14,640 –> 00:17:18,520
\nAnd He will not.
\nWhen he forgives, he won’t <\/p>\n

237
\n00:17:18,520 –> 00:17:22,160
\nlightly pass by the judgement on
\nsin. <\/p>\n

238
\n00:17:22,560 –> 00:17:25,800
\nIf he’s going to give, if he’s
\ngoing to give you forgiveness, <\/p>\n

239
\n00:17:26,079 –> 00:17:29,640
\nhe’ll make sure you recognise
\nwhat you really deserve. <\/p>\n

240
\n00:17:30,520 –> 00:17:33,760
\nThat’s fair, right and just.
\nAnd it’s beneficial for you. <\/p>\n

241
\n00:17:34,560 –> 00:17:36,760
\nIt’s beneficial for you to
\nrealize that. <\/p>\n

242
\n00:17:37,520 –> 00:17:44,640
\nOK, so in Christ it’s been set
\nforth just the the terrible <\/p>\n

243
\n00:17:44,640 –> 00:17:50,760
\nenormity of human sin on the one
\nhand, all right, and the <\/p>\n

244
\n00:17:50,760 –> 00:17:56,560
\nwonderfulness of divine grace
\nand the brightness of demanding <\/p>\n

245
\n00:17:56,560 –> 00:18:01,200
\nfaith before he’ll forgive.
\nThat’s as simple as that. <\/p>\n

246
\n00:18:01,680 –> 00:18:05,880
\nNow this word declare, put a
\ncircle around that Psalm 98 <\/p>\n

247
\n00:18:05,880 –> 00:18:09,560
\nverse 2, because it expressed
\nperfectly what the word declare <\/p>\n

248
\n00:18:09,560 –> 00:18:13,000
\nmeans.
\nAnd maybe this declare His <\/p>\n

249
\n00:18:13,000 –> 00:18:17,040
\nrighteousness is actually
\nquoting from Psalm 98 verse 2, <\/p>\n

250
\n00:18:17,160 –> 00:18:20,240
\nalthough I can’t prove it
\nbecause the words aren’t exactly<\/p>\n

251
\n00:18:20,240 –> 00:18:25,040
\nthe same in the Greek septuagan.
\nBut just turn you keep your hand<\/p>\n

252
\n00:18:25,040 –> 00:18:31,400
\nin there and just look at Psalm
\n98 verse 2 to go on the circle, <\/p>\n

253
\n00:18:31,400 –> 00:18:34,640
\nbecause if you forget what this
\ndeclares all about this Psalm <\/p>\n

254
\n00:18:34,640 –> 00:18:41,600
\ntells you and the Psalm’s all
\nabout righteousness and victory <\/p>\n

255
\n00:18:42,360 –> 00:18:44,880
\nand God the judge of all the
\nearth. <\/p>\n

256
\n00:18:45,640 –> 00:18:49,960
\nThat’s what the whole Psalm’s
\nabout atonement and and and he’s<\/p>\n

257
\n00:18:49,960 –> 00:18:55,040
\nprobably quoting verse 2 and
\nYahweh hath made known his <\/p>\n

258
\n00:18:55,040 –> 00:19:02,120
\nsalvation and notice this, his
\nrighteousness hath he what <\/p>\n

259
\n00:19:03,160 –> 00:19:10,200
\ndeclared openly showed.
\nThat’s exactly what the meaning <\/p>\n

260
\n00:19:10,200 –> 00:19:15,720
\nof declared is in the Greek back
\nup here in Romans 3 openly <\/p>\n

261
\n00:19:15,720 –> 00:19:22,800
\nshowed OK, if you looked up that
\nHebrew word for openly showed it<\/p>\n

262
\n00:19:22,800 –> 00:19:25,840
\nwould it’s it’s pronounced
\nsomething like gall law. <\/p>\n

263
\n00:19:26,640 –> 00:19:30,160
\nI’m not very good at pronouncing
\nHebrew and it actually means <\/p>\n

264
\n00:19:30,160 –> 00:19:34,600
\nstrip naked.
\nIn other words, fully exposed. <\/p>\n

265
\n00:19:34,920 –> 00:19:41,680
\nSo, so, so Christ is fully
\nexposed God’s righteousness both<\/p>\n

266
\n00:19:41,680 –> 00:19:46,560
\nin respect to sin and in respect
\nto mercy, based in respect to <\/p>\n

267
\n00:19:46,560 –> 00:19:50,120
\nHis Verity and in respect to His
\ngoodness. <\/p>\n

268
\n00:19:50,800 –> 00:19:54,000
\nYou can take the whole character
\nof God which Jesus Christ <\/p>\n

269
\n00:19:54,000 –> 00:19:56,000
\nmanifested.
\nWhen you see me, you see the <\/p>\n

270
\n00:19:56,000 –> 00:19:59,040
\nFather.
\nAnd let’s not kid ourselves. <\/p>\n

271
\n00:19:59,280 –> 00:20:03,480
\nHe manifested while the emphasis
\nwas on mercy, All right. <\/p>\n

272
\n00:20:03,480 –> 00:20:06,840
\nHe wouldn’t let the disciples
\ncall fire down on a city. <\/p>\n

273
\n00:20:06,840 –> 00:20:10,240
\nHe says, you know what manner of
\nspirit, spirit you’re of. <\/p>\n

274
\n00:20:10,240 –> 00:20:12,640
\nWe’ve come to save life, not to
\ndestroy. <\/p>\n

275
\n00:20:13,200 –> 00:20:20,440
\nHowever, He spent his life
\nrecommending right attitudes and<\/p>\n

276
\n00:20:20,440 –> 00:20:24,960
\ndivine like attitudes and
\ncondemning wrong attitudes, <\/p>\n

277
\n00:20:25,480 –> 00:20:29,200
\nright from his disciples, right
\nfrom the scribes and Pharisees, <\/p>\n

278
\n00:20:29,200 –> 00:20:31,320
\nand condemning old cities,
\ndidn’t it? <\/p>\n

279
\n00:20:31,640 –> 00:20:36,640
\nIt was a balance of severity and
\na balance of mercy and the <\/p>\n

280
\n00:20:36,640 –> 00:20:42,640
\nrighteous direction should lead
\nus all right and expose the <\/p>\n

281
\n00:20:42,640 –> 00:20:48,200
\nhypocrisy of the earning
\nsalvation with all its wrong <\/p>\n

282
\n00:20:48,200 –> 00:20:53,280
\ndoctrines that the Jews had.
\nThey had every wrong doctrine. <\/p>\n

283
\n00:20:53,280 –> 00:20:56,800
\nThe churches have got to die.
\nI’ve mentioned that before. <\/p>\n

284
\n00:20:56,800 –> 00:21:00,120
\nThey believed that that the
\ndevil wasn’t yourself. <\/p>\n

285
\n00:21:00,120 –> 00:21:04,920
\nIt was Beelzebub.
\nOK, the the God of flies of the <\/p>\n

286
\n00:21:04,920 –> 00:21:07,840
\nPhilistines, of the Philistines.
\nWasn’t it something like that? <\/p>\n

287
\n00:21:08,320 –> 00:21:13,480
\nAnd they believed in purgatory.
\nThey believed in in souls and <\/p>\n

288
\n00:21:13,480 –> 00:21:16,240
\nmortal souls and going to hell
\nand going to hell. <\/p>\n

289
\n00:21:16,240 –> 00:21:19,800
\nThey believed all that stuff.
\nOK, In other words. <\/p>\n

290
\n00:21:20,200 –> 00:21:26,440
\nAnd like the churches today,
\nthey believed in this concept of<\/p>\n

291
\n00:21:26,680 –> 00:21:30,440
\nearning, even though the
\nchurches would deny that today <\/p>\n

292
\n00:21:30,520 –> 00:21:34,920
\nthey do.
\nWe won’t go into that. <\/p>\n

293
\n00:21:34,920 –> 00:21:42,160
\nThat’s a complex argument.
\nSo Jesus Christ came to <\/p>\n

294
\n00:21:42,680 –> 00:21:46,760
\ndemonstrate God’s personal
\nrighteousness. <\/p>\n

295
\n00:21:47,000 –> 00:21:50,680
\nAnd as to if you can believe
\nthat he demonstrate God’s <\/p>\n

296
\n00:21:50,680 –> 00:21:54,040
\npersonal righteousness, God’s
\nprepared to pronounce you <\/p>\n

297
\n00:21:54,040 –> 00:21:56,000
\nrighteous even though you don’t
\ndeserve it. <\/p>\n

298
\n00:21:57,320 –> 00:22:00,880
\nYou pronounce him righteous
\nbecause he is righteous. <\/p>\n

299
\n00:22:01,200 –> 00:22:04,880
\nHe’ll pronounce you righteous
\nbecause you’ve turned around you<\/p>\n

300
\n00:22:04,880 –> 00:22:07,800
\nwant to copy a follower of God
\ninstead of a follower of <\/p>\n

301
\n00:22:07,800 –> 00:22:11,400
\nyourself and your world.
\nIt’s as simple as that. <\/p>\n

302
\n00:22:11,840 –> 00:22:16,120
\nIf you can see that God writers
\nhas manifested in the work of <\/p>\n

303
\n00:22:16,120 –> 00:22:22,400
\nChrist OK and you’re prepared to
\nturn away from the the life of <\/p>\n

304
\n00:22:22,400 –> 00:22:25,600
\nsin and try and pursue God’s
\nvalues. <\/p>\n

305
\n00:22:26,000 –> 00:22:28,920
\nHe will forgive.
\nHe will pronounce you righteous.<\/p>\n

306
\n00:22:28,920 –> 00:22:36,760
\nOK, But what God wants in faith
\nis a confession that He is <\/p>\n

307
\n00:22:36,760 –> 00:22:38,960
\nrighteous.
\nThere it is. <\/p>\n

308
\n00:22:38,960 –> 00:22:42,400
\nIt says God’s righteous that
\nsays he wants you to confess <\/p>\n

309
\n00:22:42,400 –> 00:22:46,240
\nthat.
\nAll right, And the confession <\/p>\n

310
\n00:22:46,240 –> 00:22:49,000
\nwas first, and we’ve got a
\nproblem in confessing that. <\/p>\n

311
\n00:22:49,000 –> 00:22:51,680
\nAnd the last time we pointed out
\nthere’s a lot of sins. <\/p>\n

312
\n00:22:51,680 –> 00:22:55,560
\nWe haven’t learned of sins yet.
\nAll right, there’s two things <\/p>\n

313
\n00:22:55,560 –> 00:22:58,880
\nthat separated primary from God
\nat certain Ephesians, and that’s<\/p>\n

314
\n00:22:58,880 –> 00:23:05,560
\nignorance and wicked works.
\nThat’s what’s OK, ignorance and <\/p>\n

315
\n00:23:05,560 –> 00:23:08,080
\nwicked works.
\nAnd so there’s a lot of things <\/p>\n

316
\n00:23:08,080 –> 00:23:12,520
\nwe don’t even know are sins yet.
\nAnd yet you’re saying confess <\/p>\n

317
\n00:23:12,520 –> 00:23:15,120
\nyour sin.
\nWe can only do it partially. <\/p>\n

318
\n00:23:15,680 –> 00:23:20,840
\nAlso, I also want you to
\nconfess, but holiness be holy, <\/p>\n

319
\n00:23:20,840 –> 00:23:24,560
\nfor I am holy.
\nWe know a lot of God’s righteous<\/p>\n

320
\n00:23:24,560 –> 00:23:27,840
\nvalues don’t know them all, and
\nwe don’t know how to apply them <\/p>\n

321
\n00:23:27,840 –> 00:23:29,960
\nall in 1,000,001 situations in
\nlife. <\/p>\n

322
\n00:23:30,120 –> 00:23:35,120
\nIt’s a lifetime’s job.
\nOK, so we can only confess sin <\/p>\n

323
\n00:23:35,120 –> 00:23:37,200
\nand holiness to a limited
\ndegree. <\/p>\n

324
\n00:23:38,200 –> 00:23:44,120
\nExcept this unique man here, he
\ncould was tempted in all points.<\/p>\n

325
\n00:23:44,680 –> 00:23:48,880
\nHe could recognise every sin,
\ntherefore he would recognise <\/p>\n

326
\n00:23:49,040 –> 00:23:54,320
\nevery temptation, right?
\nAnd he could recognise every <\/p>\n

327
\n00:23:54,320 –> 00:23:57,480
\nright attitude and every action.
\nThat’s right. <\/p>\n

328
\n00:23:58,120 –> 00:24:00,880
\nHe was taught of God from right
\nfrom his early age. <\/p>\n

329
\n00:24:01,360 –> 00:24:04,280
\nGod opened his ear morning by
\nmorning, developed his <\/p>\n

330
\n00:24:04,280 –> 00:24:08,640
\nspirituality, OK?
\nI mean, he was a second Adam. <\/p>\n

331
\n00:24:08,640 –> 00:24:11,200
\nThere’s only three people
\nbegotten by God, and that’s <\/p>\n

332
\n00:24:11,200 –> 00:24:14,240
\nAdam, right?
\nHe was another son of God and he<\/p>\n

333
\n00:24:14,240 –> 00:24:18,200
\nhad these capacities.
\nOK, Yeah, yeah. <\/p>\n

334
\n00:24:18,480 –> 00:24:22,760
\nYou might call him a, a moral
\nfreak relative to us, but that <\/p>\n

335
\n00:24:22,760 –> 00:24:29,120
\ndidn’t make him not a man.
\nI mean, Einstein was a bit of a <\/p>\n

336
\n00:24:29,120 –> 00:24:30,800
\nfreak.
\nAnd there’s some people that are<\/p>\n

337
\n00:24:31,040 –> 00:24:34,600
\nare freaks in mathematics and
\nthey don’t know how they can do <\/p>\n

338
\n00:24:34,600 –> 00:24:37,840
\nit, but they can just work this
\nmathematics out in seconds like <\/p>\n

339
\n00:24:37,840 –> 00:24:39,920
\na computer.
\nThey don’t even understand how <\/p>\n

340
\n00:24:39,920 –> 00:24:43,400
\nthey can do it.
\nOK, but that doesn’t make him <\/p>\n

341
\n00:24:43,400 –> 00:24:46,800
\nnot a man.
\nThey’re of like passions as we <\/p>\n

342
\n00:24:46,800 –> 00:24:50,160
\nare and have the same sin
\nproblems that we have. <\/p>\n

343
\n00:24:50,560 –> 00:24:55,720
\nSo this was declaration was
\nactually a confession in action <\/p>\n

344
\n00:24:55,840 –> 00:24:59,000
\nin action, right?
\nHe was demonstrating it. <\/p>\n

345
\n00:24:59,400 –> 00:25:02,280
\nHe not only did it in words, he
\ndid it and he lived it out. <\/p>\n

346
\n00:25:02,720 –> 00:25:08,520
\nHe’s called truth, as it is in
\nChrist Jesus. <\/p>\n

347
\n00:25:08,640 –> 00:25:12,200
\nIt should be truth, which is
\nChrist Jesus. <\/p>\n

348
\n00:25:12,440 –> 00:25:15,560
\nSo he was confessing.
\nHe was an expert. <\/p>\n

349
\n00:25:15,680 –> 00:25:17,560
\nHe was a you’d say he’d never
\nsinned. <\/p>\n

350
\n00:25:17,560 –> 00:25:19,160
\nHe wouldn’t be an expert.
\nSin. <\/p>\n

351
\n00:25:19,160 –> 00:25:23,360
\nThat’s completely wrong.
\nThe more you sin, the less you <\/p>\n

352
\n00:25:23,360 –> 00:25:26,680
\ncan recognize sin.
\nThe less you sin, the more you <\/p>\n

353
\n00:25:26,680 –> 00:25:30,360
\ncan recognize sin.
\nIf you’ve been tempted with <\/p>\n

354
\n00:25:30,360 –> 00:25:35,480
\nevery sin but never yielded to
\nit, you’d understand sin and <\/p>\n

355
\n00:25:35,480 –> 00:25:39,120
\nsinners better than any Sinner
\naround. <\/p>\n

356
\n00:25:40,440 –> 00:25:42,920
\nPlus the fact you had the Holy
\nSpirit to be able to read <\/p>\n

357
\n00:25:42,920 –> 00:25:47,400
\npeople’s minds, you’d be able to
\nread and analyse what effect <\/p>\n

358
\n00:25:47,400 –> 00:25:50,200
\ntheir transgressions were having
\non their personality and <\/p>\n

359
\n00:25:50,200 –> 00:25:52,920
\ncharacter.
\nSo is the only man really <\/p>\n

360
\n00:25:52,920 –> 00:25:56,480
\nqualified to confess the sin of
\nmankind? <\/p>\n

361
\n00:25:56,800 –> 00:26:01,560
\nEvery sin, it’s the same as he
\nwas the only man qualified to <\/p>\n

362
\n00:26:01,560 –> 00:26:06,280
\ntake on board the full divine
\nmorality and recognise every <\/p>\n

363
\n00:26:06,280 –> 00:26:08,720
\nrighteous attitude, every
\nrighteous act. <\/p>\n

364
\n00:26:09,520 –> 00:26:13,560
\nI mean, he’s a unique man
\nspecially prepared to <\/p>\n

365
\n00:26:13,560 –> 00:26:23,920
\ndemonstrate human sin and divine
\nrighteousness and therefore a <\/p>\n

366
\n00:26:23,920 –> 00:26:31,480
\nperfect example for us to follow
\na perfect example. <\/p>\n

367
\n00:26:32,960 –> 00:26:35,720
\nIt’s interesting.
\nI I shouldn’t do this, but this <\/p>\n

368
\n00:26:35,720 –> 00:26:39,520
\nword declare is a very
\ninteresting word occurs all that<\/p>\n

369
\n00:26:39,680 –> 00:26:42,200
\nplace we want to follow it.
\nPick up the word show in the <\/p>\n

370
\n00:26:42,200 –> 00:26:46,760
\nBible and occurs a lot All
\nright, and the key letters in it<\/p>\n

371
\n00:26:47,080 –> 00:26:52,760
\nare DEI, which means to exhibit.
\nThere’s all sorts of words that <\/p>\n

372
\n00:26:53,080 –> 00:27:00,880
\nare made-up different words.
\nOK, and one of the most quite a <\/p>\n

373
\n00:27:00,880 –> 00:27:04,680
\ncommon use it’s translated
\nexample. <\/p>\n

374
\n00:27:06,880 –> 00:27:11,480
\nI mean, someone says, Oh yeah,
\nyou know, how do you hit that <\/p>\n

375
\n00:27:11,480 –> 00:27:13,080
\nball with how do you play this
\ngolf? <\/p>\n

376
\n00:27:13,640 –> 00:27:15,320
\nHe says.
\nHe says, well, I’ll show you. <\/p>\n

377
\n00:27:16,080 –> 00:27:17,480
\nAnd he shows you.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

378
\n00:27:17,480 –> 00:27:19,760
\nIn other words, you’ve given him
\nan example of how to do it. <\/p>\n

379
\n00:27:19,760 –> 00:27:25,280
\nSo the idea of example now just
\nbear that in mind. <\/p>\n

380
\n00:27:25,600 –> 00:27:27,840
\nWe preach the truth about Christ
\ncrucified. <\/p>\n

381
\n00:27:28,080 –> 00:27:30,760
\nWe’ve got to get, when we speak
\nto interested friends, we’ve got<\/p>\n

382
\n00:27:30,760 –> 00:27:32,440
\nto get down to a very simple
\nlanguage. <\/p>\n

383
\n00:27:33,640 –> 00:27:39,760
\nYou could actually say he
\nexemplified God’s righteousness.<\/p>\n

384
\n00:27:40,360 –> 00:27:47,120
\nHe was an example, right of
\ndeclaring if you like, he was an<\/p>\n

385
\n00:27:47,120 –> 00:27:51,120
\nexample.
\nHe showed how sinful man was and<\/p>\n

386
\n00:27:51,200 –> 00:27:54,840
\nand he showed how righteous God.
\nHe was a perfect example of <\/p>\n

387
\n00:27:54,840 –> 00:27:59,920
\nthis, a perfect example of
\nrejecting sin, the perfect <\/p>\n

388
\n00:27:59,920 –> 00:28:03,880
\nexample of taking on board the
\ndivine mind so that he could be <\/p>\n

389
\n00:28:03,880 –> 00:28:08,240
\nobedient, So you could actually
\npreach the gospel in the <\/p>\n

390
\n00:28:08,240 –> 00:28:11,000
\nsimplest possible way.
\nYou could say, well, what’s <\/p>\n

391
\n00:28:11,000 –> 00:28:14,480
\nJesus Christ death all about?
\nWell, it’s a perfect example of <\/p>\n

392
\n00:28:14,480 –> 00:28:18,480
\nthe life that God wants, the
\nperfect method of salvation. <\/p>\n

393
\n00:28:18,720 –> 00:28:22,400
\nAnd if you’re prepared to accept
\nthat perfect method and copy it <\/p>\n

394
\n00:28:22,600 –> 00:28:26,680
\nand use the same methods, all
\nright, take on board the divine <\/p>\n

395
\n00:28:26,680 –> 00:28:30,120
\nmind as best you can and, and
\nreject the sins you can <\/p>\n

396
\n00:28:30,120 –> 00:28:33,120
\nrecognise God’s prepared to
\nforgive you. <\/p>\n

397
\n00:28:33,720 –> 00:28:36,480
\nIt’s as simple as that.
\nThat’s how the simple truth we <\/p>\n

398
\n00:28:36,480 –> 00:28:38,320
\nshould be preaching.
\nPaul went through the Greek <\/p>\n

399
\n00:28:38,320 –> 00:28:41,480
\naround the world beaching Christ
\ncrucified. <\/p>\n

400
\n00:28:41,800 –> 00:28:45,480
\nI’ll know no other thing amongst
\nyou but Jesus Christ and him, a <\/p>\n

401
\n00:28:45,480 –> 00:28:48,760
\ncrucified one.
\nThat’s what he went doing. <\/p>\n

402
\n00:28:49,960 –> 00:28:56,880
\nSo, so the righteousness of God
\nrevolves around those two <\/p>\n

403
\n00:28:56,880 –> 00:28:59,680
\nthings.
\nYou know, wages of sin is death,<\/p>\n

404
\n00:28:59,680 –> 00:29:03,720
\nthe gift of God’s eternal life.
\nIt says in Isaiah 40 the same <\/p>\n

405
\n00:29:03,720 –> 00:29:06,760
\nthing in different words.
\nAll flesh is grass. <\/p>\n

406
\n00:29:06,840 –> 00:29:11,040
\nWages of sin is death.
\nThe Word of God endures forever <\/p>\n

407
\n00:29:11,400 –> 00:29:16,120
\nthe gift of God’s eternal life.
\nYou’ll find this expressed in <\/p>\n

408
\n00:29:16,120 –> 00:29:18,680
\ndozens of different ways
\nthroughout the Bible. <\/p>\n

409
\n00:29:18,920 –> 00:29:26,760
\nYou can trace it through in your
\ndaily readings, you know, in a <\/p>\n

410
\n00:29:26,760 –> 00:29:30,160
\ndozen different ways.
\nI’ve just got to resist tempting<\/p>\n

411
\n00:29:30,160 –> 00:29:36,240
\ntaking you through it.
\nOK, now this is this declaration<\/p>\n

412
\n00:29:36,320 –> 00:29:41,080
\nof God’s righteousness is the
\nbasis for the remission of sins <\/p>\n

413
\n00:29:41,080 –> 00:29:44,320
\nthat are passed.
\nThe word remission, there’s not <\/p>\n

414
\n00:29:44,320 –> 00:29:47,880
\nthe usual word usually in the
\nNew Testament word remission <\/p>\n

415
\n00:29:48,040 –> 00:29:51,480
\nmeans to send away.
\nIt means to forgive and often <\/p>\n

416
\n00:29:51,480 –> 00:29:55,440
\ntranslate a forgiveness.
\nOK, it’s it’s a word taken the <\/p>\n

417
\n00:29:55,440 –> 00:29:58,360
\nscapegoat, where the
\nsymbolically all the sins were <\/p>\n

418
\n00:29:58,360 –> 00:30:01,360
\nplaced on the scapegoat’s back
\nand they sent him in the <\/p>\n

419
\n00:30:01,360 –> 00:30:03,280
\nwilderness.
\nHe was remitted like a letter. <\/p>\n

420
\n00:30:03,280 –> 00:30:05,320
\nHe was remitted into the
\nwilderness, that guy. <\/p>\n

421
\n00:30:05,800 –> 00:30:09,840
\nBut this is a different word.
\nIt actually means to relax, to <\/p>\n

422
\n00:30:09,840 –> 00:30:15,000
\nlet it pass by.
\nIn other words, because you <\/p>\n

423
\n00:30:15,000 –> 00:30:20,080
\nbelieve and confess your
\nposition and you confess the <\/p>\n

424
\n00:30:20,080 –> 00:30:24,160
\nideal, and thereby by comparing
\nyourself with it, you confess <\/p>\n

425
\n00:30:24,160 –> 00:30:30,640
\nyour position.
\nGod relaxes and he relaxes the <\/p>\n

426
\n00:30:30,640 –> 00:30:33,600
\nsins of the past.
\nIn other words, he forgives. <\/p>\n

427
\n00:30:34,080 –> 00:30:38,640
\nOK, He forgives them and
\nforgives quite remissions. <\/p>\n

428
\n00:30:38,640 –> 00:30:43,440
\nQuite a good translation,
\nreally, even though technically <\/p>\n

429
\n00:30:43,440 –> 00:30:49,720
\nit’s not.
\nLet’s go back to Romans 3, We’re<\/p>\n

430
\n00:30:49,720 –> 00:30:52,760
\nin Sam.
\nLet’s go back to our industry. <\/p>\n

431
\n00:30:53,960 –> 00:30:57,000
\nSo it’s a basis.
\nIt’s the condition upon which <\/p>\n

432
\n00:30:57,000 –> 00:31:00,000
\nGod’s grace comes.
\nIt says for the mission of sins <\/p>\n

433
\n00:31:00,000 –> 00:31:02,760
\nof the past.
\nAnd Brother Carter suggests that<\/p>\n

434
\n00:31:02,760 –> 00:31:07,400
\nmeans not our past sins.
\nThat means, he suggests it means<\/p>\n

435
\n00:31:07,800 –> 00:31:11,680
\nthe basis for remission of all
\nsins done from Adam to Christ. <\/p>\n

436
\n00:31:12,800 –> 00:31:16,760
\nAnd that’s why we’ve got the
\nnext verse which the the the <\/p>\n

437
\n00:31:16,760 –> 00:31:21,400
\nverse is virtually repeated in a
\nshorter form and says and for <\/p>\n

438
\n00:31:21,400 –> 00:31:27,440
\nthis time, in other words, verse
\n25’s dealing with the sacrifice <\/p>\n

439
\n00:31:27,440 –> 00:31:30,600
\nof Christ as the basis for the
\nforgiveness of sins, right for <\/p>\n

440
\n00:31:30,600 –> 00:31:34,080
\nMadam to Christ.
\nAnd the next verse deals with <\/p>\n

441
\n00:31:34,280 –> 00:31:38,920
\nthat sacrifice is the base of
\nall sins, forgiveness of all <\/p>\n

442
\n00:31:38,920 –> 00:31:42,960
\nsins from Christ onward, from
\nChrist onward in this time. <\/p>\n

443
\n00:31:42,960 –> 00:31:48,120
\nYou know what I mean?
\nTurned the two over again, made <\/p>\n

444
\n00:31:48,120 –> 00:31:54,880
\nthe same mistake, didn’t we?
\nNow we go to verse 26. <\/p>\n

445
\n00:31:55,080 –> 00:31:56,960
\nSo we haven’t looked at verse
\n26. <\/p>\n

446
\n00:31:56,960 –> 00:32:02,080
\nLet’s look at verse 26 to
\ndeclare and it’s not up there, <\/p>\n

447
\n00:32:02,280 –> 00:32:07,880
\nOK, to declares that same word
\nagain to demonstrate I say at <\/p>\n

448
\n00:32:07,880 –> 00:32:13,200
\nthis time or for this time.
\nIn other words, verse 25 says <\/p>\n

449
\n00:32:13,200 –> 00:32:16,960
\nthat was the basis of God
\nforgiving from Adam right up to <\/p>\n

450
\n00:32:16,960 –> 00:32:19,920
\nChrist.
\nThen he says verse 26. <\/p>\n

451
\n00:32:20,000 –> 00:32:23,120
\nIt’s also the basis from Christ
\nonward to declare. <\/p>\n

452
\n00:32:23,120 –> 00:32:27,360
\nI say at this time, that is in
\nthe sense of from this time <\/p>\n

453
\n00:32:27,360 –> 00:32:34,480
\nforward to demonstrate that at
\nthis time he is, that is God’s <\/p>\n

454
\n00:32:35,280 –> 00:32:40,240
\nas personally righteous to
\ndeclare his righteousness that <\/p>\n

455
\n00:32:40,240 –> 00:32:48,520
\nhe might be righteous and a
\nrighteous fire of him which has <\/p>\n

456
\n00:32:48,520 –> 00:32:56,440
\nfaith in that work of Jesus
\ndescribed in verse 25, that he <\/p>\n

457
\n00:32:56,440 –> 00:33:01,280
\nmight be just and a justifier
\nthat he might be righteous and a<\/p>\n

458
\n00:33:01,280 –> 00:33:05,720
\nrighteous fire.
\nHe’s actually quoting from <\/p>\n

459
\n00:33:05,720 –> 00:33:12,640
\nIsaiah 45, which is a chapter
\nwhich deals the God that saves. <\/p>\n

460
\n00:33:13,840 –> 00:33:18,080
\nAnd we’re going to pick this up
\nbecause it talks about burying <\/p>\n

461
\n00:33:18,080 –> 00:33:20,520
\nthe knee and confessing your
\nposition. <\/p>\n

462
\n00:33:22,040 –> 00:33:25,040
\nBurying the knee and confessing
\nyour position. <\/p>\n

463
\n00:33:25,040 –> 00:33:26,880
\nThere’s a bloke burying his
\nknee. <\/p>\n

464
\n00:33:27,720 –> 00:33:32,960
\nOK.
\nAnd the quote was put by where <\/p>\n

465
\n00:33:32,960 –> 00:33:40,200
\nGod says I am a just God and a
\nsaviour and a justifier. <\/p>\n

466
\n00:33:40,200 –> 00:33:42,160
\nNo practical difference.
\nOK. <\/p>\n

467
\n00:33:43,440 –> 00:33:50,520
\nAnd when you go to Isaiah 45,
\nit’s interesting to go there and<\/p>\n

468
\n00:33:50,520 –> 00:33:54,440
\njust have a look at that.
\nOK, just for a moment. <\/p>\n

469
\n00:33:57,960 –> 00:34:04,480
\nIn other words, the main verse
\nin the atonement in the Bible is<\/p>\n

470
\n00:34:04,480 –> 00:34:06,880
\nbuilt on Isaiah 45.
\nThat’s interesting. <\/p>\n

471
\n00:34:06,880 –> 00:34:10,040
\nYou know, we’ve got we ought to
\nlook at it just for a second. <\/p>\n

472
\n00:34:10,040 –> 00:34:15,520
\nOf course it’s the servant
\nprophecies and Isaiah 40 right <\/p>\n

473
\n00:34:15,520 –> 00:34:18,040
\nthrough to the end of the rest
\nof Isaiah’s full of the <\/p>\n

474
\n00:34:18,040 –> 00:34:23,080
\natonement full of it.
\nIt’s all about God being a <\/p>\n

475
\n00:34:23,080 –> 00:34:32,000
\nsaviour of verse 11 that saith
\nYahweh the holy one of Israel <\/p>\n

476
\n00:34:32,000 –> 00:34:38,719
\nthan his maker ask of things to
\ncome concerning my sons and <\/p>\n

477
\n00:34:38,719 –> 00:34:42,280
\nconcerning the work of my hands
\ncommand you and you asked me <\/p>\n

478
\n00:34:42,280 –> 00:34:46,000
\nabout that.
\nOK now verse 13. <\/p>\n

479
\n00:34:46,000 –> 00:34:51,120
\nI raised him up in
\nrighteousness, and he the type <\/p>\n

480
\n00:34:51,120 –> 00:34:55,600
\nis Cyrus, but the language is
\ntoo powerful for Cyrus. <\/p>\n

481
\n00:34:55,880 –> 00:34:57,720
\nI’ve raised him up in
\nrighteousness. <\/p>\n

482
\n00:34:57,720 –> 00:35:01,320
\nI will direct his ways, and he
\nwill build my city, and so on <\/p>\n

483
\n00:35:01,320 –> 00:35:03,440
\nand so on.
\nHe’ll let my captives go free <\/p>\n

484
\n00:35:05,240 –> 00:35:11,760
\nfor without reward or prize.
\nVerse 15 Verily thou, Adele, and<\/p>\n

485
\n00:35:11,760 –> 00:35:16,400
\nthou hide us thyself, O God of
\nIsrael, the Saviour. <\/p>\n

486
\n00:35:19,080 –> 00:35:22,920
\nThey shall be ashamed.
\nVerse 16 And also confounded all<\/p>\n

487
\n00:35:22,920 –> 00:35:28,120
\nthem that go to confusion
\ntogether, that are makers of <\/p>\n

488
\n00:35:28,120 –> 00:35:33,440
\nidols.
\nVerse 17 But Israel shall be <\/p>\n

489
\n00:35:33,560 –> 00:35:39,560
\nsaved in Yahweh with an
\neverlasting salvation. <\/p>\n

490
\n00:35:40,120 –> 00:35:44,160
\nYou should not be shamed nor
\nconfounded. <\/p>\n

491
\n00:35:44,360 –> 00:35:49,680
\nWell without our end, which is
\nthe alarm we add for the for the<\/p>\n

492
\n00:35:49,680 –> 00:35:52,080
\nMillennium and beyond and
\nforever and ever. <\/p>\n

493
\n00:35:52,520 –> 00:35:55,720
\nOK, He’s talking about
\neverlasting salvation. <\/p>\n

494
\n00:35:56,040 –> 00:35:59,760
\nOK.
\nAnd he says we often quote verse<\/p>\n

495
\n00:35:59,760 –> 00:36:02,400
\n18 in our lectures.
\nFor thus saith Yahweh that <\/p>\n

496
\n00:36:02,400 –> 00:36:06,000
\ncreated the heavens, Elohim
\nhimself that formed the earth <\/p>\n

497
\n00:36:06,000 –> 00:36:08,160
\nand made it.
\nHe has established it. <\/p>\n

498
\n00:36:08,160 –> 00:36:11,600
\nHe created it not in vain.
\nHe formed it to be inhabited. <\/p>\n

499
\n00:36:11,600 –> 00:36:13,320
\nI am Yahweh, and there’s none
\nelse. <\/p>\n

500
\n00:36:15,480 –> 00:36:18,520
\nI have not spoken in secret in
\nthe dark place of the earth. <\/p>\n

501
\n00:36:18,520 –> 00:36:24,680
\nI said not under the seat of
\nJacob seek ye Me and faiths are <\/p>\n

502
\n00:36:24,680 –> 00:36:27,760
\nthose that seek God, who
\ndiligently seek him. <\/p>\n

503
\n00:36:28,040 –> 00:36:33,600
\nSeek him in vain.
\nI, Yahweh, speak righteousness. <\/p>\n

504
\n00:36:35,400 –> 00:36:38,000
\nI haven’t asked you to seek me
\nout in vain. <\/p>\n

505
\n00:36:38,360 –> 00:36:43,080
\nIf I’ve asked you to seek you
\nout, it’s it’s a righteous thing<\/p>\n

506
\n00:36:43,080 –> 00:36:45,720
\nthat I’ve asked you to do and
\nI’ll be faithful. <\/p>\n

507
\n00:36:45,840 –> 00:36:49,960
\nIf you seek me out and find me,
\nyou’ll get what I promise <\/p>\n

508
\n00:36:49,960 –> 00:36:56,200
\nbecause I’m righteous.
\nVerse 20 Assemble yourselves and<\/p>\n

509
\n00:36:56,200 –> 00:36:59,640
\ncome draw near you that are
\nescaped to the nations that have<\/p>\n

510
\n00:36:59,640 –> 00:37:05,560
\nno knowledge that set up wood of
\ntheir graven image and pray unto<\/p>\n

511
\n00:37:05,560 –> 00:37:10,880
\na God that cannot save.
\nThe Jews had one of those. <\/p>\n

512
\n00:37:10,880 –> 00:37:13,800
\nIt wasn’t actually an an idol
\nGod. <\/p>\n

513
\n00:37:14,160 –> 00:37:18,080
\nIt was an idol concept.
\nWe can earn salvation. <\/p>\n

514
\n00:37:18,360 –> 00:37:22,720
\nWe’ve got Abraham to our father.
\nWe are a superior people. <\/p>\n

515
\n00:37:23,040 –> 00:37:25,320
\nThe weak, the flesh has got
\nweaknesses, but it’s got a lot <\/p>\n

516
\n00:37:25,320 –> 00:37:28,240
\nof strength.
\nAnd that just so long as we <\/p>\n

517
\n00:37:28,240 –> 00:37:32,800
\napply that strength and practice
\nourselves in keeping a divine <\/p>\n

518
\n00:37:32,800 –> 00:37:35,600
\nlaw outside of us, we earn
\nsalvation. <\/p>\n

519
\n00:37:35,840 –> 00:37:38,600
\nWell, that was an image.
\nIt was the wrong concept and <\/p>\n

520
\n00:37:39,080 –> 00:37:42,800
\nthey’re trying to be saved by a
\nhuman method that was wrong. <\/p>\n

521
\n00:37:44,160 –> 00:37:46,640
\nVerse 21 tell you and bring them
\nnear you. <\/p>\n

522
\n00:37:46,640 –> 00:37:50,120
\nLet them take counsel together.
\nWho had declared this from <\/p>\n

523
\n00:37:50,120 –> 00:37:52,440
\nancient time.
\nWe were told that from that time<\/p>\n

524
\n00:37:52,720 –> 00:37:58,120
\nhave not I Yahweh.
\nThere is no Elohim apart from <\/p>\n

525
\n00:37:58,120 –> 00:38:00,880
\nme.
\nThere’ll be no angels, except <\/p>\n

526
\n00:38:00,880 –> 00:38:04,400
\nthey come by me.
\nThen we have the expression <\/p>\n

527
\n00:38:04,400 –> 00:38:10,400
\nhere, Here we have it, a just,
\nI’ll and a Saviour. <\/p>\n

528
\n00:38:11,040 –> 00:38:16,480
\nThere is none, only me, a just
\nand a so. <\/p>\n

529
\n00:38:17,080 –> 00:38:21,640
\nSo he says, look under me.
\nVerse 22 pick up that word, <\/p>\n

530
\n00:38:21,640 –> 00:38:35,480
\nLook, look unto me, behold me if
\nyou like, behold me OK, and and <\/p>\n

531
\n00:38:35,640 –> 00:38:41,480
\nbeing ye saved, you’ve just got
\nto behold me, see me for what I <\/p>\n

532
\n00:38:41,480 –> 00:38:44,600
\nam, and be saved all ends of the
\nearth. <\/p>\n

533
\n00:38:45,000 –> 00:38:50,760
\nI am ale, and there’s none else.
\nAnd then he makes an oath. <\/p>\n

534
\n00:38:51,680 –> 00:38:54,680
\nI’ve sworn by myself.
\nThe word has gone out of my <\/p>\n

535
\n00:38:54,680 –> 00:38:58,440
\nmouth in righteousness, and
\nshall not return. <\/p>\n

536
\n00:38:58,600 –> 00:39:05,480
\nAnd this is the oath that under
\nme every knee will bow, and <\/p>\n

537
\n00:39:05,480 –> 00:39:13,000
\nevery tongue shall swear, or as
\nPaul translates it, confess. <\/p>\n

538
\n00:39:13,840 –> 00:39:16,520
\nAnd this is quoted in a few
\nplaces in the New Testament. <\/p>\n

539
\n00:39:16,720 –> 00:39:20,200
\nThis oath under me every knee
\nshall bow. <\/p>\n

540
\n00:39:20,920 –> 00:39:24,400
\nThere he is, and every tongue
\nwill confess. <\/p>\n

541
\n00:39:26,040 –> 00:39:29,560
\nConfession.
\nRemember our famous quote from <\/p>\n

542
\n00:39:29,560 –> 00:39:37,760
\nHebrews, David, Proverbs 2813.
\nHe that confesseth and forsaketh<\/p>\n

543
\n00:39:37,760 –> 00:39:40,840
\nhis sin will find mercy with
\nGod. <\/p>\n

544
\n00:39:42,000 –> 00:39:47,200
\nSo God says you’ve got to look
\nat me and you’ve got to bow the <\/p>\n

545
\n00:39:47,200 –> 00:39:50,440
\nknee and you’ve got to confess
\nyour position. <\/p>\n

546
\n00:39:54,200 –> 00:40:05,320
\nOK, acknowledge your position
\nand that involves, you know, the<\/p>\n

547
\n00:40:05,320 –> 00:40:09,480
\nweight of sin is death.
\nYou confess your position. <\/p>\n

548
\n00:40:11,280 –> 00:40:15,960
\nAnd you confess to the point
\nwhere it it converts you. <\/p>\n

549
\n00:40:16,040 –> 00:40:20,200
\nYou look at Christ and you see
\nthe terribleness of sin and what<\/p>\n

550
\n00:40:20,200 –> 00:40:23,600
\nsin did to him and what it’s
\ndoing to the glory of God. <\/p>\n

551
\n00:40:24,280 –> 00:40:27,080
\nAnd yet when you look inside
\nthat man, you see a wonderful <\/p>\n

552
\n00:40:27,080 –> 00:40:30,120
\nmind that was able to be
\nperfectly obedient even under <\/p>\n

553
\n00:40:30,120 –> 00:40:34,280
\nthe death of the cross.
\nWhen you see that and it turns <\/p>\n

554
\n00:40:34,280 –> 00:40:39,200
\nyou around to stop pursuing the
\nlife of sin and to pursue life <\/p>\n

555
\n00:40:39,200 –> 00:40:41,760
\nof God, you know what you’ve
\ndone. <\/p>\n

556
\n00:40:43,080 –> 00:40:49,640
\nYou know what you’ve you’ve
\ngiven up your own life. <\/p>\n

557
\n00:40:51,000 –> 00:40:53,760
\nYou’ve given up living to
\nyourself. <\/p>\n

558
\n00:40:55,280 –> 00:41:01,600
\nIt’s a death, a very real death.
\nHe that loses his life will find<\/p>\n

559
\n00:41:01,600 –> 00:41:04,960
\nit, right?
\nBut he that saves his life, <\/p>\n

560
\n00:41:05,080 –> 00:41:08,720
\nhe’ll lose it.
\nIt’s a very real death. <\/p>\n

561
\n00:41:08,960 –> 00:41:12,600
\nIt’s a moral death.
\nIt’s a bit like a man who should<\/p>\n

562
\n00:41:12,600 –> 00:41:15,880
\nhang for murder.
\nAnd the judge says, well, we can<\/p>\n

563
\n00:41:15,880 –> 00:41:21,280
\nhang you and that’ll all be over
\nin a second or else for the rest<\/p>\n

564
\n00:41:21,280 –> 00:41:24,400
\nof your days, right?
\nYou’ve got to work in the <\/p>\n

565
\n00:41:24,400 –> 00:41:28,560
\nhospital without money, without
\npay, with any days off. <\/p>\n

566
\n00:41:29,000 –> 00:41:33,280
\nYou’ve got to totally commit
\nyourself to the benefit of other<\/p>\n

567
\n00:41:33,280 –> 00:41:36,000
\npeople.
\nIn other words, your personal <\/p>\n

568
\n00:41:36,000 –> 00:41:40,680
\nlife’s finished, right?
\nYou can choose which death you <\/p>\n

569
\n00:41:40,680 –> 00:41:46,480
\nlike, but they’re both death to
\nyour own will and to to your own<\/p>\n

570
\n00:41:46,480 –> 00:41:48,280
\ndirection.
\nSelfish existence. <\/p>\n

571
\n00:41:48,400 –> 00:41:54,200
\nIt’s a death, and God regards
\nthat as satisfying his judgement<\/p>\n

572
\n00:41:54,200 –> 00:41:59,520
\non us for sin instead of killing
\nus and leaving us in the grave <\/p>\n

573
\n00:41:59,520 –> 00:42:03,400
\nforever.
\nIt’s a moral death and it <\/p>\n

574
\n00:42:03,400 –> 00:42:06,880
\nvindicates God better than if he
\nkills you. <\/p>\n

575
\n00:42:08,760 –> 00:42:11,120
\nThat’s a quite a key concept
\nthere. <\/p>\n

576
\n00:42:11,360 –> 00:42:15,320
\nQuite a key concept.
\nThat’s why you wonder why Christ<\/p>\n

577
\n00:42:15,400 –> 00:42:19,680
\ntalks like that way.
\nYou know, you can’t reserve <\/p>\n

578
\n00:42:19,680 –> 00:42:23,480
\nyourself a sin.
\nYou go, you got to you got to <\/p>\n

579
\n00:42:23,480 –> 00:42:26,400
\nforsake your life.
\nYou say, well, these are pretty <\/p>\n

580
\n00:42:26,400 –> 00:42:29,720
\nhigh standards, OK, But
\nremember, it is direction. <\/p>\n

581
\n00:42:30,240 –> 00:42:33,880
\nSure, sometimes we turn around,
\ndo something selfish and we see <\/p>\n

582
\n00:42:33,880 –> 00:42:36,720
\nit, but that’s our committed
\ndirection in life. <\/p>\n

583
\n00:42:37,040 –> 00:42:41,320
\nInstead of us chasing the life
\nof selfishness, we’re chasing <\/p>\n

584
\n00:42:41,320 –> 00:42:43,760
\nthe life of God.
\nAnd now and again interrupt <\/p>\n

585
\n00:42:44,160 –> 00:42:46,360
\ngives us a flying tackle.
\nWe fall in our face. <\/p>\n

586
\n00:42:46,600 –> 00:42:49,520
\nGod understands that and He
\nforgives for Christ’s sake. <\/p>\n

587
\n00:42:49,600 –> 00:42:52,640
\nSo long as you get up and keep
\nheading in the right direction. <\/p>\n

588
\n00:42:52,760 –> 00:42:57,440
\nThat’s practical, simple and
\nfunctional and very merciful. <\/p>\n

589
\n00:42:57,760 –> 00:43:03,640
\nAnd it works.
\nSo where’s this first quoted was<\/p>\n

590
\n00:43:03,640 –> 00:43:07,360
\nquoted a member in Philippians.
\nNow that this might be new, <\/p>\n

591
\n00:43:07,360 –> 00:43:11,320
\nwhich was in Christ Jesus who
\nthose in the form of God thought<\/p>\n

592
\n00:43:11,320 –> 00:43:15,680
\nit not robbery to be like God.
\nThey’ve been found in fashion a <\/p>\n

593
\n00:43:15,680 –> 00:43:19,760
\nman he emptied himself and
\nbecame obedient. <\/p>\n

594
\n00:43:20,840 –> 00:43:25,760
\nI’m not quoting a perfect He
\nbecame obedient even under the <\/p>\n

595
\n00:43:25,800 –> 00:43:29,880
\nhe humiliated himself, he
\nhumiliated self and became <\/p>\n

596
\n00:43:29,880 –> 00:43:31,920
\nobedient even to the death of
\nthe cross. <\/p>\n

597
\n00:43:32,080 –> 00:43:36,400
\nWherefore God hath highly
\nexalted him and given him a name<\/p>\n

598
\n00:43:36,400 –> 00:43:40,480
\nwhich is above every name, that
\nat the name of Jesus, and he’s <\/p>\n

599
\n00:43:40,520 –> 00:43:44,520
\npraying this, the name of Jesus
\nevery knee should bear and every<\/p>\n

600
\n00:43:44,520 –> 00:43:50,520
\ntongue confessed that Jesus is
\nLord to the glory of God the <\/p>\n

601
\n00:43:50,520 –> 00:43:55,840
\nFather.
\nGod exalted him to be his vice <\/p>\n

602
\n00:43:55,840 –> 00:43:59,800
\nRegent, his representative for
\nthe people that are going to be <\/p>\n

603
\n00:43:59,800 –> 00:44:02,800
\nsaved and bow the knee to God
\nand look at God. <\/p>\n

604
\n00:44:03,640 –> 00:44:07,200
\nThey’ve got to do it in front of
\nJesus Christ. <\/p>\n

605
\n00:44:07,440 –> 00:44:10,880
\nThey’ve got to see Jesus Christ
\nas God manifests. <\/p>\n

606
\n00:44:11,720 –> 00:44:13,480
\nThey’ve got to confess
\nthemselves. <\/p>\n

607
\n00:44:13,760 –> 00:44:15,920
\nThey’ve got to confess their
\nposition here. <\/p>\n

608
\n00:44:16,280 –> 00:44:19,560
\nThey’ve got to look at Jesus
\nChrist, his life, his death, his<\/p>\n

609
\n00:44:19,560 –> 00:44:23,680
\nburial, but particularly this
\ngreat moral victory here, his <\/p>\n

610
\n00:44:23,680 –> 00:44:27,960
\nvindication of God’s judgement
\nand his vindication of the power<\/p>\n

611
\n00:44:27,960 –> 00:44:30,160
\nof His Holiness.
\nThey’ve got to look at that and <\/p>\n

612
\n00:44:30,160 –> 00:44:32,960
\nbare the knee and confess their
\nown position. <\/p>\n

613
\n00:44:35,320 –> 00:44:38,880
\nConfessions the key.
\nAnd in that very confession, <\/p>\n

614
\n00:44:39,160 –> 00:44:42,920
\nrealise that this one here is
\nonly the only one making a <\/p>\n

615
\n00:44:42,920 –> 00:44:46,400
\nperfect confession that
\nvindicates God completely. <\/p>\n

616
\n00:44:46,920 –> 00:44:50,480
\nYou’re doing the best you can,
\nat least you’re identifying with<\/p>\n

617
\n00:44:50,480 –> 00:44:55,240
\nit, and you’re getting the
\nbenefit of that brotherly family<\/p>\n

618
\n00:44:55,240 –> 00:44:58,360
\nidentity that God lets you have
\nthrough baptism. <\/p>\n

619
\n00:44:59,960 –> 00:45:03,320
\nSpread in other places in Romans
\nchapter 10. <\/p>\n

620
\n00:45:03,800 –> 00:45:07,160
\nYeah, with a heart, man
\nbelieveth the righteousness of <\/p>\n

621
\n00:45:07,160 –> 00:45:09,000
\nthe mouth.
\nConfession is made under <\/p>\n

622
\n00:45:09,000 –> 00:45:12,280
\nsalvation.
\nScratted in Romans 14, but it <\/p>\n

623
\n00:45:12,280 –> 00:45:15,240
\nmust all appear before the
\njudgement seat of Christ that <\/p>\n

624
\n00:45:15,240 –> 00:45:18,640
\nquotes this very verse under me.
\nEvery knee shall bow and every <\/p>\n

625
\n00:45:18,640 –> 00:45:23,960
\ntongue shall confess.
\nAll right, So right from baptism<\/p>\n

626
\n00:45:24,880 –> 00:45:27,200
\nwe’re barring the knee and
\nconfessing our position. <\/p>\n

627
\n00:45:27,200 –> 00:45:29,800
\nWe should do it every day.
\nWe do it particularly on <\/p>\n

628
\n00:45:29,800 –> 00:45:31,760
\nSundays.
\nWe should be doing it all our <\/p>\n

629
\n00:45:31,760 –> 00:45:33,520
\nlife.
\nAnd when we get the judgement <\/p>\n

630
\n00:45:33,520 –> 00:45:36,560
\nseat, we’ll be doing it then
\nwe’ll be giving account of <\/p>\n

631
\n00:45:36,560 –> 00:45:39,720
\nourselves to God.
\nWe’ll bow the knee and confess. <\/p>\n

632
\n00:45:40,240 –> 00:45:44,320
\nAnd what will be the final
\noutcome of all that when we’re <\/p>\n

633
\n00:45:44,320 –> 00:45:50,000
\nbeing we’ve looked been God
\nconfessed and got the benefit of<\/p>\n

634
\n00:45:50,160 –> 00:45:53,600
\nidentifying the one who
\nconfessed it perfectly right. <\/p>\n

635
\n00:45:53,720 –> 00:45:58,520
\nWhat will be our position?
\nHey, what will we finally say? <\/p>\n

636
\n00:45:58,560 –> 00:46:00,760
\nWell, it tells us here what
\nwe’ll finally say. <\/p>\n

637
\n00:46:00,960 –> 00:46:05,880
\nVerse 24.
\nSurely shall one say in the <\/p>\n

638
\n00:46:05,880 –> 00:46:10,880
\nLord, in Yahweh, in the Lord,
\nshall I have I righteousness and<\/p>\n

639
\n00:46:10,880 –> 00:46:16,760
\nstrength in the Lord?
\nIt’s because of my identity. <\/p>\n

640
\n00:46:17,360 –> 00:46:20,480
\nBy course I look at God and the
\nperson of Jesus Christ and <\/p>\n

641
\n00:46:20,480 –> 00:46:23,880
\nidentify with that and I become
\nhis brother and walk in the same<\/p>\n

642
\n00:46:23,880 –> 00:46:27,800
\ndirection and get the benefits
\nof the forgiveness and grace of <\/p>\n

643
\n00:46:27,800 –> 00:46:30,120
\nGod.
\nJust because you had you confess<\/p>\n

644
\n00:46:30,120 –> 00:46:35,120
\nyour position as and identify
\nwith that perfect confession by <\/p>\n

645
\n00:46:35,200 –> 00:46:40,280
\nJesus Christ and you bow the
\nknee before that one, what will <\/p>\n

646
\n00:46:40,280 –> 00:46:43,560
\nbe the outcome in Yahweh?
\nYou know, one of those common <\/p>\n

647
\n00:46:43,560 –> 00:46:48,120
\nexpressions we say, we say we’re
\nin the truth, but in the the 1st<\/p>\n

648
\n00:46:48,120 –> 00:46:50,280
\ncentury, they didn’t say we’re
\nin the truth. <\/p>\n

649
\n00:46:50,280 –> 00:46:54,240
\nThey said we’re in the Lord.
\nThey’re referring to this very <\/p>\n

650
\n00:46:54,240 –> 00:46:56,720
\nphrase in the Lord.
\nThey’re in the family. <\/p>\n

651
\n00:46:56,920 –> 00:47:00,960
\nThey’re in the Lord’s family,
\nOK, They had a brother of Christ<\/p>\n

652
\n00:47:00,960 –> 00:47:02,680
\nwho?
\nBaptist in Galatians chapter 3, <\/p>\n

653
\n00:47:02,680 –> 00:47:06,000
\netcetera, basic stuff.
\nSon of God, brother of Jesus <\/p>\n

654
\n00:47:06,000 –> 00:47:07,280
\nChrist.
\nThey’re in the Lord. <\/p>\n

655
\n00:47:07,280 –> 00:47:09,880
\nThey’re in the Lord’s family
\nbecause in the Lord’s family <\/p>\n

656
\n00:47:10,080 –> 00:47:13,160
\nthey’re getting these benefits.
\nThey’re sharing Christ’s <\/p>\n

657
\n00:47:13,160 –> 00:47:14,960
\nperfection.
\nThey’re sharing his full <\/p>\n

658
\n00:47:14,960 –> 00:47:17,320
\nconfession.
\nAll right, they’re doing the <\/p>\n

659
\n00:47:17,320 –> 00:47:22,800
\nbest they can, but they share
\nthe benefit of his fullness in <\/p>\n

660
\n00:47:22,800 –> 00:47:26,120
\nthe Lord have our righteousness
\nand strength and to him shall <\/p>\n

661
\n00:47:26,120 –> 00:47:29,360
\nmen come and all that are
\nincensed against him. <\/p>\n

662
\n00:47:29,800 –> 00:47:32,880
\nEveryone that disagree with that
\nmethod of God, they’re going to <\/p>\n

663
\n00:47:32,880 –> 00:47:37,200
\nbe ashamed.
\nVerse 25 in the Lord in Yahweh <\/p>\n

664
\n00:47:37,400 –> 00:47:41,840
\nshall all the true seed of
\nIsrael be pronounced righteous <\/p>\n

665
\n00:47:42,040 –> 00:47:48,240
\nand shall glory.
\nNow Romans chapter 3 built on <\/p>\n

666
\n00:47:48,240 –> 00:47:52,320
\nthose verses.
\nOK, and you’ll have to work on <\/p>\n

667
\n00:47:52,320 –> 00:47:55,760
\nthat yourself to really make it
\nchill. <\/p>\n

668
\n00:48:00,040 –> 00:48:05,280
\nOur reading tonight was Matthew
\n3 and we our go to, we’re <\/p>\n

669
\n00:48:05,280 –> 00:48:11,600
\npicking up, declaring God’s
\nrighteousness, all right, and <\/p>\n

670
\n00:48:11,600 –> 00:48:16,280
\nwe’re relating it to something
\nvery similar to that which was <\/p>\n

671
\n00:48:16,280 –> 00:48:18,320
\nChrist’s words to John the
\nBaptist. <\/p>\n

672
\n00:48:18,320 –> 00:48:23,440
\nThis is John the Baptist, this
\nis Jordan, this is Jesus Christ <\/p>\n

673
\n00:48:23,440 –> 00:48:26,320
\nhere in yellow.
\nAnd these are all those that <\/p>\n

674
\n00:48:26,320 –> 00:48:31,480
\nfollow Jesus Christ.
\nHe’s the captain, all right. <\/p>\n

675
\n00:48:31,480 –> 00:48:34,280
\nRemember our earlier studies?
\nHe’s the chief leader. <\/p>\n

676
\n00:48:34,280 –> 00:48:38,520
\nThe word captain means chief
\nleader, as in our dreams tonight<\/p>\n

677
\n00:48:38,520 –> 00:48:43,320
\nin Acts and in last night it
\noccurred again, all right. <\/p>\n

678
\n00:48:43,760 –> 00:48:49,360
\nAnd it’s whom God has made a
\nPrince and a savour. <\/p>\n

679
\n00:48:49,360 –> 00:48:51,400
\nThe word Prince is chief
\ncaptain. <\/p>\n

680
\n00:48:51,760 –> 00:48:54,920
\nHe’s a captain, a chief leader.
\nIt means he’s a leader. <\/p>\n

681
\n00:48:54,920 –> 00:48:57,280
\nHe’s leading.
\nThe word shepherd means the <\/p>\n

682
\n00:48:57,280 –> 00:49:00,720
\nleader of the sheep.
\nAll right, the idea of <\/p>\n

683
\n00:49:00,840 –> 00:49:04,680
\nleaderships in many a king, a
\nking is the captain of my <\/p>\n

684
\n00:49:04,680 –> 00:49:06,960
\npeople.
\nA king is the chief leader of <\/p>\n

685
\n00:49:06,960 –> 00:49:08,400
\nhis people.
\nHe’s a leader. <\/p>\n

686
\n00:49:09,040 –> 00:49:12,240
\nI mean, he had to be an example.
\nA king supposed to, when he came<\/p>\n

687
\n00:49:12,240 –> 00:49:15,120
\nto rule in Israel, supposed to
\nsit down and personally wrote <\/p>\n

688
\n00:49:15,120 –> 00:49:20,400
\nout the whole Old Testament as
\nit was then, and he had to write<\/p>\n

689
\n00:49:20,400 –> 00:49:23,360
\nit out personally in his own
\nhand, and he had to read it <\/p>\n

690
\n00:49:23,400 –> 00:49:26,680
\nevery day.
\nIn other words, a king had to be<\/p>\n

691
\n00:49:26,680 –> 00:49:30,560
\na leader both in moral things
\nand in battle and in ministry. <\/p>\n

692
\n00:49:30,720 –> 00:49:32,960
\nHe had to be the chief leader,
\nOK? <\/p>\n

693
\n00:49:33,320 –> 00:49:36,120
\nAnd that’s what Jesus Christ
\nwas, a chief leader. <\/p>\n

694
\n00:49:36,480 –> 00:49:40,120
\nAnd he was a leader when he got
\nbaptized, OK? <\/p>\n

695
\n00:49:40,120 –> 00:49:43,960
\nHe was a leader.
\nHe was beginning a public <\/p>\n

696
\n00:49:43,960 –> 00:49:49,400
\nmanifestation of God’s method,
\nsomething that starts with <\/p>\n

697
\n00:49:49,400 –> 00:49:55,200
\nbaptism, runs the life of
\nrepudiating sin and taking on <\/p>\n

698
\n00:49:55,200 –> 00:50:00,880
\nboard divine values, overcoming
\nweakness by divine, developing <\/p>\n

699
\n00:50:00,880 –> 00:50:04,960
\nthe divine mind, and finally in
\ndeath itself. <\/p>\n

700
\n00:50:05,640 –> 00:50:11,160
\nDying.
\nIt is, it’s acceptable with God <\/p>\n

701
\n00:50:11,160 –> 00:50:13,000
\nthat even your death can be
\nacceptable. <\/p>\n

702
\n00:50:14,600 –> 00:50:18,120
\nYou know, I only hope that when
\nI die, well, you’ve got to think<\/p>\n

703
\n00:50:18,120 –> 00:50:21,200
\nof it beforehand because
\nsometimes you just been able to <\/p>\n

704
\n00:50:21,200 –> 00:50:22,680
\ndo up your shoelace and that’s
\nit. <\/p>\n

705
\n00:50:22,680 –> 00:50:25,160
\nBut so you’ve got to think of it
\non a daily basis. <\/p>\n

706
\n00:50:25,160 –> 00:50:26,920
\nBut I’m getting pretty close to
\nit, OK. <\/p>\n

707
\n00:50:27,400 –> 00:50:30,760
\nAnd I’ve got a truck ticker and
\neverything and it’s I’m <\/p>\n

708
\n00:50:30,760 –> 00:50:34,760
\nencumbered not only through my
\nlife, but right now you come to <\/p>\n

709
\n00:50:34,760 –> 00:50:38,360
\nthe end and physical death
\nitself to say God is righteous. <\/p>\n

710
\n00:50:38,400 –> 00:50:41,240
\nI should be mortal.
\nThe wage is as sin is death. <\/p>\n

711
\n00:50:41,520 –> 00:50:45,200
\nI can survive this, but allow me
\nby because I’ve taken on board <\/p>\n

712
\n00:50:45,200 –> 00:50:49,480
\nthe word which endures forever.
\nAnd I’m sharing the benefit of <\/p>\n

713
\n00:50:49,480 –> 00:50:53,880
\nChrist’s perfect victory.
\nI’m sharing his victory, OK, <\/p>\n

714
\n00:50:53,880 –> 00:50:57,720
\nwhich is really forgiveness.
\nAnd it’s just forgiveness put in<\/p>\n

715
\n00:50:57,720 –> 00:51:00,600
\nall different sort of ways.
\nIt’s conversion, forgiveness <\/p>\n

716
\n00:51:00,920 –> 00:51:03,440
\nand, and, and I should die with
\nthat faith. <\/p>\n

717
\n00:51:03,600 –> 00:51:08,400
\nAnd dying with that faith will
\nensure that I’ll be with him in <\/p>\n

718
\n00:51:08,400 –> 00:51:15,040
\nparadise.
\nSo just let’s look at Matthew 3 <\/p>\n

719
\n00:51:15,040 –> 00:51:23,520
\nand Isaiah 40.
\nKeep your hand in Isaiah 40 and <\/p>\n

720
\n00:51:23,520 –> 00:51:26,360
\nturn up Matthew 3.
\nYou’ve got to turn from one to <\/p>\n

721
\n00:51:26,360 –> 00:51:31,640
\nthe other.
\nIt says in in Matthew chapter 3.<\/p>\n

722
\n00:51:31,640 –> 00:51:34,600
\nIn those days, first one came
\nJohn the Baptist preaching in <\/p>\n

723
\n00:51:34,600 –> 00:51:39,360
\nthe wilderness of Judea saying
\nrepent for the Kingdom of heaven<\/p>\n

724
\n00:51:39,360 –> 00:51:45,200
\nis at hand.
\nAnd this is he that was spoken <\/p>\n

725
\n00:51:45,200 –> 00:51:51,920
\nof by the prophet saying quote
\nIsaiah 40 verses 3 to 8, the <\/p>\n

726
\n00:51:51,920 –> 00:51:55,560
\nvoice of one crying in the
\nwilderness. <\/p>\n

727
\n00:51:55,960 –> 00:52:01,240
\nPrepare ye the way of the Lord,
\nmake his paths straight. <\/p>\n

728
\n00:52:04,560 –> 00:52:09,520
\nNow when you go back to notice
\nwhat he’s preached, repent for <\/p>\n

729
\n00:52:09,520 –> 00:52:11,320
\nthe Kingdom of heaven is at
\nhand. <\/p>\n

730
\n00:52:11,720 –> 00:52:14,840
\nBut when you go back to Isaiah
\n40, now put your hand in Matthew<\/p>\n

731
\n00:52:14,840 –> 00:52:18,680
\n3 and go back to Isaiah 40.
\nIt’s told what he should have <\/p>\n

732
\n00:52:18,680 –> 00:52:23,400
\npreached, OK.
\nThe chapters dealing with <\/p>\n

733
\n00:52:23,400 –> 00:52:26,880
\nforgiveness, the verse 2,
\nspeaking comfortably to <\/p>\n

734
\n00:52:26,880 –> 00:52:30,640
\nJerusalem, crying unto her that
\nher warfare is accomplished and <\/p>\n

735
\n00:52:30,640 –> 00:52:37,280
\nher iniquity is pardoned.
\nHer iniquity is pardoned. <\/p>\n

736
\n00:52:37,280 –> 00:52:41,560
\nSo it’s about the pardon of
\niniquity, OK. <\/p>\n

737
\n00:52:41,560 –> 00:52:45,000
\nAnd and from Isaiah 40 writes at
\nthe end of Isaiah, that’s what <\/p>\n

738
\n00:52:45,000 –> 00:52:53,160
\nthe subject’s all about, OK.
\nAnd it says verse 3 is the verse<\/p>\n

739
\n00:52:53,160 –> 00:52:57,480
\nthat’s quoted in Matthew 3, the
\nvoice of him that crieth in the <\/p>\n

740
\n00:52:57,480 –> 00:53:01,120
\nwilderness, prepare you the way
\nof Yahweh makes straight in the <\/p>\n

741
\n00:53:01,120 –> 00:53:04,120
\ndesert, a highway for our God,
\nour Elohim. <\/p>\n

742
\n00:53:04,880 –> 00:53:08,000
\nThat’s the one that’s quoted.
\nSo it’s John the Baptist. <\/p>\n

743
\n00:53:08,200 –> 00:53:10,880
\nVerse three is talking about
\nJohn the Baptist. <\/p>\n

744
\n00:53:11,400 –> 00:53:14,320
\nVerse 4 says he’s going to be a
\nbit of a bulldozer. <\/p>\n

745
\n00:53:14,760 –> 00:53:17,440
\nEvery valley should be exalted,
\nand every mountain and hill <\/p>\n

746
\n00:53:17,440 –> 00:53:19,320
\nshould be made low.
\nAnd the crooked place is <\/p>\n

747
\n00:53:19,320 –> 00:53:21,640
\nstraight and the rough ways is
\nplain. <\/p>\n

748
\n00:53:22,240 –> 00:53:25,360
\nIn other words, his job was to
\nbuild a highway. <\/p>\n

749
\n00:53:26,400 –> 00:53:28,640
\nYou push over the tops of
\nmountains, you fill in the <\/p>\n

750
\n00:53:28,640 –> 00:53:31,640
\nvalleys, you make it, you
\nstraighten the road up. <\/p>\n

751
\n00:53:32,120 –> 00:53:36,200
\nHe was building a highway.
\nSo he was doing it with a a <\/p>\n

752
\n00:53:36,200 –> 00:53:39,520
\ngospel.
\nHe’s building a highway with a <\/p>\n

753
\n00:53:39,520 –> 00:53:41,360
\ngospel.
\nHe’s building a highway in <\/p>\n

754
\n00:53:41,360 –> 00:53:44,040
\npeople’s minds.
\nWhy? <\/p>\n

755
\n00:53:44,040 –> 00:53:49,440
\nBecause verse 5, the glory of
\nYahweh shall be revealed and all<\/p>\n

756
\n00:53:49,440 –> 00:53:56,440
\nflesh shall see it together.
\nLook under me, behold me. <\/p>\n

757
\n00:53:56,440 –> 00:53:59,400
\nIf you’re going to get
\nforgiveness, if you’re going to <\/p>\n

758
\n00:53:59,400 –> 00:54:01,440
\nget iniquity, you’ve got to be
\nable to see God. <\/p>\n

759
\n00:54:02,520 –> 00:54:05,680
\nGod’s got to be demonstrated in
\nfront of your very eyes. <\/p>\n

760
\n00:54:05,960 –> 00:54:09,200
\nWell John, you’re going to
\nprepare a highway because the <\/p>\n

761
\n00:54:09,200 –> 00:54:11,600
\nglory of Yahweh is going to
\nappear. <\/p>\n

762
\n00:54:12,680 –> 00:54:15,960
\nHe said, OK, verse 6, what will
\nI preach? <\/p>\n

763
\n00:54:19,120 –> 00:54:21,280
\nThe voice said cry.
\nAnd he said, well, what do I <\/p>\n

764
\n00:54:21,280 –> 00:54:23,800
\ncry?
\nHe says, this is what you’ll <\/p>\n

765
\n00:54:23,800 –> 00:54:29,400
\ncry.
\nAll flesh is grass, and all the <\/p>\n

766
\n00:54:29,400 –> 00:54:32,680
\ngoodliness thereof as the flower
\nof the field. <\/p>\n

767
\n00:54:33,560 –> 00:54:40,000
\nThe grass withereth, the flower
\nfadeth because the Spirit of <\/p>\n

768
\n00:54:40,040 –> 00:54:45,240
\nYahweh bloweth upon it.
\nSurely the people, the whole lot<\/p>\n

769
\n00:54:45,240 –> 00:54:49,880
\nof them is grass.
\nAnd he repeated, The grass <\/p>\n

770
\n00:54:49,880 –> 00:54:54,080
\nwithereth, the flower fadeth.
\nBut there is something that’s <\/p>\n

771
\n00:54:54,080 –> 00:55:00,360
\neternal, and it’s not the grass.
\nThe word of our Elohim, our God <\/p>\n

772
\n00:55:00,520 –> 00:55:06,680
\nshall stand forever.
\nAnd that last phrase was quoted <\/p>\n

773
\n00:55:06,680 –> 00:55:10,800
\nmany places in the New Testament
\nand says the Word is the gospel,<\/p>\n

774
\n00:55:11,920 –> 00:55:17,920
\nthe gospel of salvation, the
\ngospel of God, God’s method, OK,<\/p>\n

775
\n00:55:18,040 –> 00:55:22,520
\nit stands forever.
\nAnything that comes from God and<\/p>\n

776
\n00:55:22,520 –> 00:55:26,640
\nit’s divine is eternal.
\nGod. <\/p>\n

777
\n00:55:26,760 –> 00:55:30,960
\nChrist was able to offer himself
\nbecause without spot, because He<\/p>\n

778
\n00:55:30,960 –> 00:55:37,840
\nhad an eternal spirit about him.
\nHe derived this eternal attitude<\/p>\n

779
\n00:55:38,120 –> 00:55:42,200
\nfrom the divine mind being
\ncommunicated in the divine Word.<\/p>\n

780
\n00:55:42,320 –> 00:55:46,600
\nBut what was he by nature?
\nJust grass like every one of us.<\/p>\n

781
\n00:55:47,960 –> 00:55:52,000
\nJust grass like every one of us.
\nBut what got him through to <\/p>\n

782
\n00:55:52,000 –> 00:55:55,080
\neternal life?
\nThe Word that stands forever. <\/p>\n

783
\n00:55:57,800 –> 00:56:01,400
\nHow did John preach that He
\ndidn’t actually use those words,<\/p>\n

784
\n00:56:01,400 –> 00:56:04,080
\neven though they’re used many
\ntimes by the apostles? <\/p>\n

785
\n00:56:04,480 –> 00:56:08,880
\nHe says repent ye for the
\nKingdom of heaven is at hand. <\/p>\n

786
\n00:56:11,280 –> 00:56:14,360
\nRepent ye for the Kingdom of
\nheaven is at hand. <\/p>\n

787
\n00:56:15,960 –> 00:56:21,000
\nThat’s what he preached and he
\npreached a a baptism whereby <\/p>\n

788
\n00:56:21,000 –> 00:56:25,720
\nthey had they confessed their
\nsins, verse 6 and verse 5 and <\/p>\n

789
\n00:56:25,720 –> 00:56:29,440
\nthen went out to him Jerusalem
\nand all Judea and all the region<\/p>\n

790
\n00:56:29,440 –> 00:56:36,040
\nroundabout and were baptized of
\nJordan confessing their sins. <\/p>\n

791
\n00:56:37,920 –> 00:56:42,720
\nNow eventually Jesus Christ
\ncomes along to be baptized. <\/p>\n

792
\n00:56:42,720 –> 00:56:45,280
\nOK, they’re confessing their
\nsins. <\/p>\n

793
\n00:56:45,280 –> 00:56:48,040
\nNow how do you confess your
\nsins? <\/p>\n

794
\n00:56:48,960 –> 00:56:51,040
\nWe’ve got to relate this to
\nIsaiah 40. <\/p>\n

795
\n00:56:51,200 –> 00:56:54,720
\nWell, to start with, he should
\nhave been preaching all fleshes <\/p>\n

796
\n00:56:54,720 –> 00:56:58,240
\ngrasp and the word induced
\nrevenue can be sure he did that.<\/p>\n

797
\n00:56:58,800 –> 00:57:03,040
\nIt’s tied up in the expression
\nRepent ye, for the Kingdom of <\/p>\n

798
\n00:57:03,040 –> 00:57:09,240
\nheaven is at hand.
\nIn other words, your grass turn <\/p>\n

799
\n00:57:09,240 –> 00:57:12,080
\naround.
\nThe Kingdom of heaven is about <\/p>\n

800
\n00:57:12,080 –> 00:57:14,800
\nto appear.
\nThe glory of God’s about to <\/p>\n

801
\n00:57:14,800 –> 00:57:16,720
\nappear.
\nThe royal majesty, the kingdom’s<\/p>\n

802
\n00:57:16,720 –> 00:57:19,520
\nabout to appear.
\nOK, turn around. <\/p>\n

803
\n00:57:19,520 –> 00:57:23,000
\nRepent.
\nAll right, Recognise your sin <\/p>\n

804
\n00:57:23,160 –> 00:57:26,200
\nbecause you’re about to be able
\nto behold God. <\/p>\n

805
\n00:57:26,680 –> 00:57:31,400
\nYou’ll be held about to behold
\nand there’s no, there’s no <\/p>\n

806
\n00:57:31,400 –> 00:57:37,360
\nsalvation unless you behold God,
\nOK, unless you recognise God and<\/p>\n

807
\n00:57:37,360 –> 00:57:47,880
\nand and and and so we find when
\nyou pick up this idea of grass <\/p>\n

808
\n00:57:47,920 –> 00:57:50,400
\nin Isaiah 40, go back to Isaiah
\n40. <\/p>\n

809
\n00:57:50,960 –> 00:57:54,080
\nPick up the end the word grass
\nat the end of verse 7. <\/p>\n

810
\n00:57:54,080 –> 00:57:59,960
\nSay run a line to verse 17.
\nAll nations before him are as <\/p>\n

811
\n00:57:59,960 –> 00:58:03,600
\nnothing, and they are counted to
\nhim less than nothing. <\/p>\n

812
\n00:58:03,880 –> 00:58:07,080
\nNothing in vanity.
\nThat’s how grassy man is. <\/p>\n

813
\n00:58:07,120 –> 00:58:10,400
\nAll nations, that’s how grassy
\nthey are. <\/p>\n

814
\n00:58:11,480 –> 00:58:14,560
\nVerse eight, Run a line from
\ngrass to verse 18. <\/p>\n

815
\n00:58:15,080 –> 00:58:17,440
\nTo whom then will you like an
\nale? <\/p>\n

816
\n00:58:18,080 –> 00:58:22,160
\nTo what likeness will you
\ncompare him You’re going to <\/p>\n

817
\n00:58:22,160 –> 00:58:24,880
\nbuild an idol you’re going to
\nyou’re going to make your own <\/p>\n

818
\n00:58:24,880 –> 00:58:28,000
\nconcept of what God is.
\nForget it. <\/p>\n

819
\n00:58:29,400 –> 00:58:35,880
\nHe’s about to appear at the end
\nof verse 9 of of Isaiah 40 verse<\/p>\n

820
\n00:58:35,920 –> 00:58:39,320
\nread verse I know Zion that
\nbring us good tidings. <\/p>\n

821
\n00:58:39,320 –> 00:58:42,840
\nThe margin says oh that tell us
\ngood tidings to Zion. <\/p>\n

822
\n00:58:43,400 –> 00:58:47,240
\nThey are that tell us good
\ntidings to Zion and good tidings<\/p>\n

823
\n00:58:47,240 –> 00:58:49,480
\nthe gospel.
\nThey are that tell us the <\/p>\n

824
\n00:58:49,480 –> 00:58:50,800
\ngospel.
\nWhat’s the gospel? <\/p>\n

825
\n00:58:51,000 –> 00:58:54,440
\nAll flesh is grasp.
\nThe Word endures forever. <\/p>\n

826
\n00:58:55,200 –> 00:58:59,400
\nAnd you know all truth is bound
\nup in those two truths. <\/p>\n

827
\n00:58:59,760 –> 00:59:03,160
\nThe whole system of truth that
\nyou and I believe are bound up <\/p>\n

828
\n00:59:03,200 –> 00:59:07,400
\nin those two truths.
\nAll flesh is grasp. <\/p>\n

829
\n00:59:07,400 –> 00:59:12,760
\nMan is weak, mortal, sinfully
\ninclined, and will die. <\/p>\n

830
\n00:59:14,040 –> 00:59:18,560
\nPeople don’t believe that, but
\nthe Word of God endures forever.<\/p>\n

831
\n00:59:18,560 –> 00:59:23,400
\nThe only hope of eternity is to
\ntake on board the Word of God. <\/p>\n

832
\n00:59:23,600 –> 00:59:26,200
\nAnd you can be related to
\nresurrection, change and <\/p>\n

833
\n00:59:26,200 –> 00:59:28,240
\nimmortality without taking that
\non. <\/p>\n

834
\n00:59:28,240 –> 00:59:30,920
\nOn board.
\nThere’s not, but people don’t <\/p>\n

835
\n00:59:30,920 –> 00:59:32,960
\nbelieve that.
\nEvery religion in the world <\/p>\n

836
\n00:59:32,960 –> 00:59:34,280
\nbelieves they’re already
\nimmortal. <\/p>\n

837
\n00:59:35,200 –> 00:59:38,800
\nThat’s ever been so.
\nIt’s ever been so. <\/p>\n

838
\n00:59:39,480 –> 00:59:45,400
\nMen refused to humiliate
\nthemselves to this fundamental <\/p>\n

839
\n00:59:45,400 –> 00:59:50,160
\nfact that man’s just grasp.
\nOh, no, he’s got weakness, but <\/p>\n

840
\n00:59:50,160 –> 00:59:53,480
\nhe’s got a lot of goodness too.
\nOh, he’s got a moral spark in <\/p>\n

841
\n00:59:53,480 –> 00:59:54,120
\nhim.
\nYep. <\/p>\n

842
\n00:59:54,400 –> 00:59:57,040
\nAnd they make man more precious
\nthan he really is. <\/p>\n

843
\n00:59:57,360 –> 01:00:01,480
\nLook how God’s view, God’s view,
\nall nations are nothing. <\/p>\n

844
\n01:00:02,240 –> 01:00:05,880
\nAnd to whom you’re going to
\ncompare it to an idol. <\/p>\n

845
\n01:00:06,320 –> 01:00:08,880
\nCan you produce?
\nCan you produce something that’s<\/p>\n

846
\n01:00:08,880 –> 01:00:10,040
\nlike me?
\nNo, you can’t. <\/p>\n

847
\n01:00:10,040 –> 01:00:15,680
\nBut I can.
\nBehold your God at the end of <\/p>\n

848
\n01:00:15,680 –> 01:00:18,320
\nverse 9.
\nI read verse 9 again. <\/p>\n

849
\n01:00:19,000 –> 01:00:22,400
\nOh, thou that bring us the
\ngospel designed. <\/p>\n

850
\n01:00:22,400 –> 01:00:24,640
\nGet the app into the high
\nmountain. <\/p>\n

851
\n01:00:25,680 –> 01:00:30,200
\nOh thou that tell us good
\ntidings to Jerusalem. <\/p>\n

852
\n01:00:32,000 –> 01:00:34,840
\nLift up thy voice with strength
\nlifted up. <\/p>\n

853
\n01:00:34,840 –> 01:00:39,120
\nBe not afraid, say under the
\ncities of Judah, and this is <\/p>\n

854
\n01:00:39,120 –> 01:00:43,480
\nwhat you’ve got to say under to
\nthe cities of Judah, John, <\/p>\n

855
\n01:00:43,840 –> 01:00:49,480
\nbehold your God.
\nAnd that’s exactly what John <\/p>\n

856
\n01:00:49,480 –> 01:00:51,800
\ndid, and he changed the words a
\nlittle bit. <\/p>\n

857
\n01:00:52,320 –> 01:00:59,040
\nThe Gospel of John chapter 1, he
\nwas he, he was told that when <\/p>\n

858
\n01:00:59,040 –> 01:01:02,280
\nJesus Christ came to be baptized
\nthat he’d seen the Spirit <\/p>\n

859
\n01:01:02,280 –> 01:01:06,400
\ndescend upon him and he would,
\nhe would, that would reveal to <\/p>\n

860
\n01:01:06,400 –> 01:01:08,720
\nhim that that was the Son of
\nGod. <\/p>\n

861
\n01:01:09,480 –> 01:01:13,400
\nAnd so when that happened, he
\nimmediately thereafter, whenever<\/p>\n

862
\n01:01:13,400 –> 01:01:15,880
\nJesus appeared and on the scene,
\nwhat did he say? <\/p>\n

863
\n01:01:16,920 –> 01:01:22,640
\nBehold the Lamb of God, Behold
\nyour God. <\/p>\n

864
\n01:01:22,960 –> 01:01:26,000
\nHe said it twice in the Gospel
\nof John chapter 1. <\/p>\n

865
\n01:01:26,200 –> 01:01:29,240
\nBehold the Lamb of God that
\ntaketh away the sin of the <\/p>\n

866
\n01:01:29,240 –> 01:01:30,920
\nworld.
\nHe’s talking about this. <\/p>\n

867
\n01:01:31,040 –> 01:01:35,160
\nBehold your God, the taking away
\nof iniquity, her iniquities <\/p>\n

868
\n01:01:35,160 –> 01:01:39,040
\npardon in it.
\nSo here we have the Gospel of <\/p>\n

869
\n01:01:39,040 –> 01:01:43,400
\nJohn and Isaiah 40, and it’s
\nsimply the gospel. <\/p>\n

870
\n01:01:44,800 –> 01:01:50,040
\nThe gospel he preached, Christ
\nlived out perfectly. <\/p>\n

871
\n01:01:50,800 –> 01:01:52,880
\nJohn lived it out as best he
\ncould. <\/p>\n

872
\n01:01:52,920 –> 01:01:55,240
\nWonderful man, the greatest
\nprophet ever lived. <\/p>\n

873
\n01:01:55,640 –> 01:02:00,240
\nHe never lived it out perfectly.
\nBehold, the Lamb of God that <\/p>\n

874
\n01:02:00,240 –> 01:02:04,360
\ntaketh away the sin of the world
\nwould come and would perfectly <\/p>\n

875
\n01:02:04,360 –> 01:02:09,200
\nmanifest the grassiness of man
\nand the everlasting hour of the <\/p>\n

876
\n01:02:09,200 –> 01:02:12,920
\nword of God.
\nAnd he demonstrated, declared, <\/p>\n

877
\n01:02:12,920 –> 01:02:16,880
\nit demonstrated.
\nAnd hence you have when we turn <\/p>\n

878
\n01:02:16,880 –> 01:02:21,280
\nback to Matthew chapter 3 time’s
\ngone. <\/p>\n

879
\n01:02:21,280 –> 01:02:25,480
\nHence you have when John when
\nChrist comes to be baptized <\/p>\n

880
\n01:02:25,840 –> 01:02:29,160
\nbecause he gets stuck into the
\nscribes and Pharisees. <\/p>\n

881
\n01:02:29,560 –> 01:02:31,960
\nYou know, you say you’ve got
\nAbraham to your father. <\/p>\n

882
\n01:02:32,200 –> 01:02:36,120
\nYou know, earning righteousness.
\nWe’re superior flesh. <\/p>\n

883
\n01:02:36,120 –> 01:02:39,040
\nThey trusted in the flesh.
\nThey trusted in the fact that <\/p>\n

884
\n01:02:39,040 –> 01:02:42,760
\nour sons of of Abraham.
\nGod’s over these stones to rise <\/p>\n

885
\n01:02:42,760 –> 01:02:44,440
\nup.
\nYou’re only subject to <\/p>\n

886
\n01:02:44,440 –> 01:02:47,440
\njudgement.
\nGod’s about to appear. <\/p>\n

887
\n01:02:48,000 –> 01:02:49,840
\nAll right.
\nThe royal majesty, the Kingdom, <\/p>\n

888
\n01:02:49,840 –> 01:02:52,000
\nthe royal majesty, the kingdom’s
\nabout to appear. <\/p>\n

889
\n01:02:52,160 –> 01:02:54,280
\nHe’s what he’s going to do, you
\nblokes. <\/p>\n

890
\n01:02:54,520 –> 01:02:57,080
\nHe’s going to use an axe and cut
\nyou down because you’re not <\/p>\n

891
\n01:02:57,080 –> 01:03:02,760
\nproducing any fruit.
\nAnd, and and he’s going to <\/p>\n

892
\n01:03:02,760 –> 01:03:05,000
\nbaptize with the Holy Spirit,
\nverse 11. <\/p>\n

893
\n01:03:05,720 –> 01:03:08,600
\nAnd he’s going to separate the
\nwheat from the the chaff. <\/p>\n

894
\n01:03:08,600 –> 01:03:14,760
\nAnd you blokes of the chaff,
\nyou’re dried up grass, all <\/p>\n

895
\n01:03:14,760 –> 01:03:17,880
\nright.
\nYeah, That’s all you are now <\/p>\n

896
\n01:03:17,880 –> 01:03:20,040
\nthey’ve got to be burnt, and
\nyou’ll be burnt. <\/p>\n

897
\n01:03:21,800 –> 01:03:25,640
\nVerse 13 Then cometh Jesus from
\nGalilee to Jordan unto John, to <\/p>\n

898
\n01:03:25,640 –> 01:03:29,000
\nbe baptized with him.
\nBut John forbade him, saying, <\/p>\n

899
\n01:03:29,600 –> 01:03:32,320
\nI’ve need to be baptized to
\nthee, and cometh out of me. <\/p>\n

900
\n01:03:32,320 –> 01:03:38,880
\nAnd Jesus answered and said unto
\nhim, Look, and you’ve got to <\/p>\n

901
\n01:03:38,880 –> 01:03:43,360
\nappreciate when people came to
\nbe baptized by John, they go out<\/p>\n

902
\n01:03:43,360 –> 01:03:47,880
\nthere confessing their sin.
\nIf you’re 50 years old and <\/p>\n

903
\n01:03:47,880 –> 01:03:50,880
\nyou’re confessing your sins,
\nyou’d be standing in the water <\/p>\n

904
\n01:03:50,880 –> 01:03:52,840
\nfor about two days.
\nYou wouldn’t remember them <\/p>\n

905
\n01:03:52,840 –> 01:03:54,680
\nanyway.
\nAnd half of them, these sins you<\/p>\n

906
\n01:03:54,680 –> 01:03:57,640
\nwouldn’t even know.
\nSo, so you didn’t actually <\/p>\n

907
\n01:03:57,640 –> 01:04:01,160
\nconfess each sin you’d ever
\ndone, maybe some major besetting<\/p>\n

908
\n01:04:01,160 –> 01:04:04,520
\nsin, but what would you do?
\nWhat would you say? <\/p>\n

909
\n01:04:06,120 –> 01:04:11,160
\nAll flesh is grass.
\nAnd the goodness that I was the <\/p>\n

910
\n01:04:11,160 –> 01:04:14,480
\nflower of the field.
\nI’m right immortal. <\/p>\n

911
\n01:04:15,200 –> 01:04:20,000
\nI’m a Sinner, I’m rightly
\nrelated to death by this death. <\/p>\n

912
\n01:04:20,720 –> 01:04:25,320
\nI know the answer lies in
\nturning to God’s word and I know<\/p>\n

913
\n01:04:25,320 –> 01:04:27,440
\nI’ve got to change the direction
\nof life. <\/p>\n

914
\n01:04:28,200 –> 01:04:31,600
\nThat was confessing his sins for
\nthe remission of sin. <\/p>\n

915
\n01:04:32,160 –> 01:04:38,560
\nThat’s what it was Jesus Christ
\nand he walks down and and the <\/p>\n

916
\n01:04:38,600 –> 01:04:43,520
\nbrother can’t suggest that he
\nwould say, well, I’ve lived in <\/p>\n

917
\n01:04:43,520 –> 01:04:47,080
\nall good conscience before God
\nor something like this until <\/p>\n

918
\n01:04:47,080 –> 01:04:50,880
\nthis day.
\nHowever, I want you to baptize <\/p>\n

919
\n01:04:50,880 –> 01:04:56,120
\nwith John probably knew his his
\ncousin anyway and he said, look,<\/p>\n

920
\n01:04:56,880 –> 01:05:00,760
\nno, I would I should be baptized
\nby you. <\/p>\n

921
\n01:05:01,400 –> 01:05:06,200
\nI shouldn’t be baptized you.
\nHe says no John, think about it <\/p>\n

922
\n01:05:06,200 –> 01:05:09,320
\nJohn, think about it.
\nSuffer it to be so now. <\/p>\n

923
\n01:05:10,160 –> 01:05:15,760
\nWell, thus it becometh us, you
\nand everyone that’s following <\/p>\n

924
\n01:05:15,760 –> 01:05:21,320
\nme, all the believers that we’re
\ngoing to say thus have become of<\/p>\n

925
\n01:05:21,400 –> 01:05:28,360
\nus to fulfill means to fill up
\nall righteousness. <\/p>\n

926
\n01:05:28,480 –> 01:05:30,600
\nWe’ve got to do everything
\nthat’s right. <\/p>\n

927
\n01:05:31,080 –> 01:05:35,720
\nI’m commencing a public ministry
\nand you know I am all right. <\/p>\n

928
\n01:05:35,760 –> 01:05:37,240
\nYou know, that’s what it’s
\nabout. <\/p>\n

929
\n01:05:37,240 –> 01:05:39,160
\nYou already were suspecting
\nhere. <\/p>\n

930
\n01:05:39,520 –> 01:05:43,440
\nI suspected he was the Messiah
\nand he’s got to fulfil. <\/p>\n

931
\n01:05:43,440 –> 01:05:46,640
\nHe’s got to walk the way that
\nothers have got to follow. <\/p>\n

932
\n01:05:46,960 –> 01:05:49,240
\nHe has to be the perfect
\nexample. <\/p>\n

933
\n01:05:49,800 –> 01:05:53,600
\nHe’s the only one that could
\nmake a full confession at <\/p>\n

934
\n01:05:53,600 –> 01:05:58,760
\nbaptism.
\nHe’s the only one that could <\/p>\n

935
\n01:05:58,760 –> 01:06:03,280
\nconfess the sin of the human
\nrights, will confess all of <\/p>\n

936
\n01:06:03,280 –> 01:06:06,400
\nthose who are going to be
\navengedly saved, because all <\/p>\n

937
\n01:06:06,400 –> 01:06:10,920
\nthose who are going to be saved,
\ntheir baptism won’t be able to <\/p>\n

938
\n01:06:10,920 –> 01:06:12,800
\nrecognise every sin.
\nThey haven’t learnt them all <\/p>\n

939
\n01:06:12,800 –> 01:06:15,040
\nyet, but they do it in
\nprinciple. <\/p>\n

940
\n01:06:15,640 –> 01:06:20,240
\nSo He comes along.
\nThus it becometh us to fulfil <\/p>\n

941
\n01:06:20,240 –> 01:06:24,920
\nall righteousness, right?
\nGod’s got a righteous method, <\/p>\n

942
\n01:06:25,920 –> 01:06:30,360
\nand the method commences when
\nyou bow the knee and acknowledge<\/p>\n

943
\n01:06:30,360 –> 01:06:35,240
\na position.
\nThen you from there on live out <\/p>\n

944
\n01:06:35,240 –> 01:06:42,400
\nthat baptised life every day,
\nand you die in that baptized <\/p>\n

945
\n01:06:42,400 –> 01:06:45,120
\nway.
\nAnd I can prove from the Bible <\/p>\n

946
\n01:06:45,120 –> 01:06:49,040
\nin many places that every day is
\na day of baptism. <\/p>\n

947
\n01:06:49,360 –> 01:06:53,440
\nAll right, Paul talks in Second
\nCorinthians chapter 4 about <\/p>\n

948
\n01:06:53,440 –> 01:06:57,400
\ndying and living right all the
\ntime, right? <\/p>\n

949
\n01:06:57,400 –> 01:07:02,360
\nHe talks about in in 1st
\nCorinthians 15 about being <\/p>\n

950
\n01:07:02,360 –> 01:07:04,800
\nbaptized for the dead, and he
\ngoes on to explain what it <\/p>\n

951
\n01:07:04,800 –> 01:07:07,280
\nmeans.
\nIt means suffering adversity of <\/p>\n

952
\n01:07:07,600 –> 01:07:10,960
\nthe beasts of Ephesus for the
\nsake of preaching the truth. <\/p>\n

953
\n01:07:11,480 –> 01:07:14,640
\nHe constantly was living the
\nbaptized life. <\/p>\n

954
\n01:07:15,080 –> 01:07:18,640
\nEvery day is a day of baptism.
\nEvery day is a commitment. <\/p>\n

955
\n01:07:18,640 –> 01:07:21,080
\nEvery time you wake up, it’s a
\ncommitment. <\/p>\n

956
\n01:07:21,080 –> 01:07:25,800
\nI am flesh, I am grass
\nnaturally, and every day it’s a <\/p>\n

957
\n01:07:25,800 –> 01:07:28,640
\ndaily thing.
\nMake up your cross. <\/p>\n

958
\n01:07:28,640 –> 01:07:38,320
\nWhat daily and follow me.
\nOK, so it was necessary to <\/p>\n

959
\n01:07:39,560 –> 01:07:45,400
\ncomplete a example of the
\nrighteous way that he submit to <\/p>\n

960
\n01:07:45,400 –> 01:07:48,720
\nbaptism.
\nHe just a confession of the <\/p>\n

961
\n01:07:48,720 –> 01:07:51,320
\nfacts.
\nLater on he died and <\/p>\n

962
\n01:07:51,320 –> 01:07:56,800
\ndemonstrated the facts.
\nAll right, So what he did here <\/p>\n

963
\n01:07:57,000 –> 01:08:02,760
\nby word and by ritual, He did.
\nIn fact, later as he was <\/p>\n

964
\n01:08:02,760 –> 01:08:09,600
\ncrucified on the tree, you’re
\ngoing to have a late night. <\/p>\n

965
\n01:08:14,200 –> 01:08:20,080
\nSo sacrifice is virtue of
\nconfession. <\/p>\n

966
\n01:08:20,439 –> 01:08:24,560
\nChrist is demonstrating and in
\nthe demonstration He’s <\/p>\n

967
\n01:08:24,560 –> 01:08:27,319
\nconfessing the facts.
\nAll flesh is grasp. <\/p>\n

968
\n01:08:27,560 –> 01:08:30,399
\nThe word endures forever.
\nHe’s doing it perfectly. <\/p>\n

969
\n01:08:30,880 –> 01:08:35,359
\nYou’ve got to take up your cross
\ndaily, all right? <\/p>\n

970
\n01:08:35,720 –> 01:08:39,920
\nIt says so in Luke 923.
\nYou’ve got to take it up daily. <\/p>\n

971
\n01:08:39,920 –> 01:08:43,000
\nDeny yourself, take up your
\ncross and follow me. <\/p>\n

972
\n01:08:43,640 –> 01:08:47,359
\nOK, so we’re going to follow the
\nsame direction but recognise <\/p>\n

973
\n01:08:47,359 –> 01:08:50,000
\ntheir limitations.
\nIs He the only one that’s doing <\/p>\n

974
\n01:08:50,000 –> 01:08:52,560
\nit perfect?
\nAnd while ever you identify with<\/p>\n

975
\n01:08:52,560 –> 01:08:54,840
\nhim, you get the benefit of that
\nperfection. <\/p>\n

976
\n01:08:55,800 –> 01:08:59,680
\nAll right.
\nAnd we’ve looked at Isaiah 45. <\/p>\n

977
\n01:09:00,200 –> 01:09:04,640
\nSo when he walked away and it
\nwas confronted with temptation <\/p>\n

978
\n01:09:04,640 –> 01:09:09,560
\nand death, his actual death and
\nvictory over sin built a bridge,<\/p>\n

979
\n01:09:10,120 –> 01:09:13,479
\na bridge which he went over
\nfirst and which we will follow <\/p>\n

980
\n01:09:13,479 –> 01:09:15,640
\nat resurrection.
\nWe’ll go over this bridge to <\/p>\n

981
\n01:09:15,640 –> 01:09:19,000
\njudgement, survive judgement,
\nenter into immortality. <\/p>\n

982
\n01:09:20,120 –> 01:09:23,880
\nIt talks about Christ’s been
\ngiving a good confession before <\/p>\n

983
\n01:09:23,880 –> 01:09:26,120
\nPontius, in the days of Pontius
\nPilate. <\/p>\n

984
\n01:09:26,720 –> 01:09:29,319
\nYou know you’re a king then.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

985
\n01:09:29,319 –> 01:09:33,600
\nFor this end was I born that I
\nmight be a witness to the truth?<\/p>\n

986
\n01:09:34,399 –> 01:09:37,279
\nAnd that’s what I’ve been doing.
\nThat’s what I’m doing now. <\/p>\n

987
\n01:09:37,279 –> 01:09:40,000
\nThat’s what I’m about to do.
\nAnd Pilot Scratch, he hadn’t <\/p>\n

988
\n01:09:40,000 –> 01:09:42,160
\nsaid what is truth.
\nHe didn’t know what he was <\/p>\n

989
\n01:09:42,160 –> 01:09:45,840
\ntalking about.
\nAnd here he was testifying the <\/p>\n

990
\n01:09:45,840 –> 01:09:47,359
\ntruth.
\nWhat is truth? <\/p>\n

991
\n01:09:47,880 –> 01:09:51,760
\nAll flesh is grass.
\nThe word endures forever. <\/p>\n

992
\n01:09:51,920 –> 01:09:57,200
\nOK, simple gospels that we
\npreach continually. <\/p>\n

993
\n01:10:03,000 –> 01:10:06,520
\nWhat’s that?
\nSorry, that sets times up. <\/p>\n

994
\n01:10:07,320 –> 01:10:11,200
\nSo from the first Adam we
\nreceive a natural body. <\/p>\n

995
\n01:10:11,960 –> 01:10:16,800
\nGod operated through Mary and he
\nproduced a second atom which <\/p>\n

996
\n01:10:16,960 –> 01:10:21,120
\ncoming from this state became a
\nlife giving spirit. <\/p>\n

997
\n01:10:21,800 –> 01:10:24,400
\nHe became this one gives us a
\nnatural body. <\/p>\n

998
\n01:10:24,840 –> 01:10:28,200
\nJesus Christ obtained to
\nimmortality and he was given the<\/p>\n

999
\n01:10:28,200 –> 01:10:32,080
\npower to share it, to actually
\nimmortalise other people. <\/p>\n

1000
\n01:10:32,480 –> 01:10:36,600
\nOK, and and so we have these two
\natoms. <\/p>\n

1001
\n01:10:36,600 –> 01:10:38,200
\nWe haven’t got time to go into
\nthat. <\/p>\n

1002
\n01:10:39,200 –> 01:10:42,680
\nAnd in Romans chapter 6 it talks
\nabout moral turning. <\/p>\n

1003
\n01:10:43,080 –> 01:10:46,960
\nHere we were living the selfish
\nlife off lifted grass and we <\/p>\n

1004
\n01:10:46,960 –> 01:10:50,960
\nwere loving it, right?
\nOh, but we change our direction.<\/p>\n

1005
\n01:10:50,960 –> 01:10:53,560
\nThat’s what repentance and
\nconversion means. <\/p>\n

1006
\n01:10:53,560 –> 01:10:57,920
\nChange your direction of life
\nand you submit the baptism. <\/p>\n

1007
\n01:10:57,920 –> 01:11:01,040
\nWhen you go under, you identify
\nwith Christ crucified. <\/p>\n

1008
\n01:11:01,360 –> 01:11:04,040
\nWhen you come out of the water,
\nyou identify with the <\/p>\n

1009
\n01:11:04,040 –> 01:11:06,960
\nresurrection of Christ.
\nThat shows another significance <\/p>\n

1010
\n01:11:06,960 –> 01:11:10,240
\nof Christ from the tree and his
\nresurrection. <\/p>\n

1011
\n01:11:10,880 –> 01:11:15,400
\nIt shows it represents this
\nphysical thing, actually <\/p>\n

1012
\n01:11:15,400 –> 01:11:18,800
\nrepresents the moral change
\nthat’s got to govern the person.<\/p>\n

1013
\n01:11:19,600 –> 01:11:23,120
\nThere’s many things represented
\nin the death of Christ, and <\/p>\n

1014
\n01:11:23,120 –> 01:11:27,480
\ninstead of relying on motivating
\nforces like the Jews who relied <\/p>\n

1015
\n01:11:27,480 –> 01:11:32,520
\non the pride of life to earn
\nsalvation, we rely on these very<\/p>\n

1016
\n01:11:32,520 –> 01:11:35,040
\nthings which say dependence upon
\nGod. <\/p>\n

1017
\n01:11:35,360 –> 01:11:39,800
\nFaith is trusting God, believing
\nthe truth of God, believing what<\/p>\n

1018
\n01:11:39,800 –> 01:11:42,240
\nGod said.
\nAdam and Eve didn’t believe what<\/p>\n

1019
\n01:11:42,240 –> 01:11:45,520
\nGod said.
\nGod has said to us, we grasp, <\/p>\n

1020
\n01:11:45,520 –> 01:11:49,040
\nbut the word endures forever
\nthis but believe it make that a <\/p>\n

1021
\n01:11:49,040 –> 01:11:52,600
\nmotivating force.
\nIt provides hope, it provides <\/p>\n

1022
\n01:11:52,600 –> 01:11:54,360
\nlove.
\nWhen you consider this method, <\/p>\n

1023
\n01:11:54,680 –> 01:11:57,600
\nit stimulates a sense of
\ngratitude that they’re <\/p>\n

1024
\n01:11:57,600 –> 01:12:02,240
\ncompletely different motivating
\nforces than self determination. <\/p>\n

1025
\n01:12:02,240 –> 01:12:06,120
\nAnd I’m great and I can do this.
\nAnd I must say to Abraham and so<\/p>\n

1026
\n01:12:06,120 –> 01:12:11,040
\non, OK, their motivations that
\nare begotten by the gospel of <\/p>\n

1027
\n01:12:11,040 –> 01:12:18,080
\ntruth brings us to the last
\nthing which races us forward to.<\/p>\n

1028
\n01:12:18,080 –> 01:12:21,160
\nRomans 7 and 8 sort of
\nsummarizes everything. <\/p>\n

1029
\n01:12:22,480 –> 01:12:26,640
\nOK, Now the boys at the school
\nof prophets reckon for them it <\/p>\n

1030
\n01:12:26,640 –> 01:12:28,320
\nsaid everything.
\nI didn’t think it was that big <\/p>\n

1031
\n01:12:28,320 –> 01:12:30,280
\ntime for them.
\nIt said everything. <\/p>\n

1032
\n01:12:31,040 –> 01:12:35,280
\nRomans 7 talks about the law of
\nsin, talks about this duality. <\/p>\n

1033
\n01:12:35,840 –> 01:12:38,440
\nIt’s all figures of speech and
\npersonification. <\/p>\n

1034
\n01:12:38,960 –> 01:12:43,440
\nHe divides himself up into two.
\nHe talks about the law of sin <\/p>\n

1035
\n01:12:43,440 –> 01:12:46,800
\nand his members.
\nIt’s called the emotions of <\/p>\n

1036
\n01:12:46,800 –> 01:12:49,080
\nsins.
\nIt’s called sin. <\/p>\n

1037
\n01:12:49,480 –> 01:12:53,280
\nIt’s called a law of sin.
\nIt’s called sin in the flesh. <\/p>\n

1038
\n01:12:53,680 –> 01:13:00,520
\nThat’s but then he sees that as
\nthe natural functions, they’re <\/p>\n

1039
\n01:13:00,520 –> 01:13:03,800
\nsimply the lust, the bless the
\neye and the pride of life who <\/p>\n

1040
\n01:13:03,800 –> 01:13:05,760
\ndon’t like the restriction of
\nlaw. <\/p>\n

1041
\n01:13:06,000 –> 01:13:08,760
\nWe need them to live.
\nBut that doesn’t like the <\/p>\n

1042
\n01:13:08,760 –> 01:13:12,480
\nrestriction of law.
\nIt’s selfish and it wants and <\/p>\n

1043
\n01:13:12,480 –> 01:13:15,720
\nit’s self indulgence.
\nAnd he found his body always <\/p>\n

1044
\n01:13:15,720 –> 01:13:20,160
\ngeared for that.
\nYou know he might have you might<\/p>\n

1045
\n01:13:20,160 –> 01:13:23,120
\nhave a job to doing the truth,
\nbut you’re that jolly hungry. <\/p>\n

1046
\n01:13:23,440 –> 01:13:25,840
\nIt’s and it’s no good saying
\nI’ve got a job to doing the <\/p>\n

1047
\n01:13:25,840 –> 01:13:27,800
\ntruth doesn’t stop you being
\nhungry. <\/p>\n

1048
\n01:13:28,000 –> 01:13:31,360
\nYou might ignore it, but the
\nflesh keeps saying have <\/p>\n

1049
\n01:13:31,360 –> 01:13:34,200
\nsomething to eat, mate.
\nYou know, especially 40 days in <\/p>\n

1050
\n01:13:34,200 –> 01:13:37,080
\nthe wilderness and you’re
\nhungry, You know have something <\/p>\n

1051
\n01:13:37,080 –> 01:13:40,800
\nthe flesh.
\nYou know it was no good saying <\/p>\n

1052
\n01:13:41,040 –> 01:13:43,640
\nman does not live by bread
\nalone, but by every word that <\/p>\n

1053
\n01:13:43,640 –> 01:13:46,320
\ncould proceeded out of the mouth
\nof the Lord. <\/p>\n

1054
\n01:13:46,320 –> 01:13:48,040
\nShall man live?
\nI mean it did. <\/p>\n

1055
\n01:13:48,440 –> 01:13:51,120
\nIt was the whole answer, but
\ndidn’t stop him being hungry. <\/p>\n

1056
\n01:13:51,280 –> 01:13:55,520
\nOK, it persists.
\nSo he found this persistent law <\/p>\n

1057
\n01:13:55,600 –> 01:13:57,760
\nand his nature trying to be
\nselfish. <\/p>\n

1058
\n01:13:58,080 –> 01:14:01,280
\nOn that hand, he’d learnt God’s
\nways 1st through the law of <\/p>\n

1059
\n01:14:01,280 –> 01:14:02,640
\nMoses.
\nAnd even there there was a <\/p>\n

1060
\n01:14:02,640 –> 01:14:04,760
\nconflict in which he found he
\nfelt. <\/p>\n

1061
\n01:14:04,960 –> 01:14:08,040
\nBut when he got the full
\nknowledge of the Gospel, when he<\/p>\n

1062
\n01:14:08,040 –> 01:14:12,760
\nwas the lights in God’s law, he
\nsaid, but he found this law that<\/p>\n

1063
\n01:14:12,760 –> 01:14:18,520
\nthey were constantly at war.
\nThe the mind, the grass is <\/p>\n

1064
\n01:14:18,520 –> 01:14:22,440
\nfighting the word of the law.
\nThere’s a constant battle. <\/p>\n

1065
\n01:14:23,920 –> 01:14:27,040
\nIt’s war.
\nWars made-up of battles. <\/p>\n

1066
\n01:14:27,840 –> 01:14:30,200
\nNow, some battles go for
\nhundreds of years. <\/p>\n

1067
\n01:14:30,200 –> 01:14:33,040
\nWars, sorry, wars go for
\nhundreds of years. <\/p>\n

1068
\n01:14:33,480 –> 01:14:37,320
\nA set, a set of the Romans in
\nthe decline and fall of the <\/p>\n

1069
\n01:14:37,320 –> 01:14:45,000
\nRoman Empire, often vanquished
\nin battle, but always victorious<\/p>\n

1070
\n01:14:45,080 –> 01:14:47,960
\nin war.
\nWhich means they lost a few <\/p>\n

1071
\n01:14:47,960 –> 01:14:51,440
\nbattles, but they went back and
\nhad a go, and they eventually <\/p>\n

1072
\n01:14:51,440 –> 01:14:54,480
\nwon the war.
\nOK, and that’s what our life’s <\/p>\n

1073
\n01:14:54,480 –> 01:14:56,520
\nall about.
\nIt’s a moral battle. <\/p>\n

1074
\n01:14:56,560 –> 01:15:00,720
\nWho with our self and our world.
\nIt’s a moral battle. <\/p>\n

1075
\n01:15:01,040 –> 01:15:03,720
\nIt’s a daily thing.
\nWe’re going to use the daily <\/p>\n

1076
\n01:15:03,720 –> 01:15:07,000
\nmethod.
\nWe’re going to use the intake of<\/p>\n

1077
\n01:15:07,000 –> 01:15:11,560
\nthe divine mind, the light in
\nGod’s law, learn the delight in <\/p>\n

1078
\n01:15:11,560 –> 01:15:13,640
\nit.
\nAnd while ever we do that and <\/p>\n

1079
\n01:15:13,640 –> 01:15:19,760
\nidentify with the work of the
\nperfect example, there is a <\/p>\n

1080
\n01:15:19,760 –> 01:15:26,960
\nbasis for God to forgive and
\nthat forgiveness and that <\/p>\n

1081
\n01:15:26,960 –> 01:15:31,400
\ndirection of life is victorious
\nover that. <\/p>\n

1082
\n01:15:33,000 –> 01:15:39,320
\nSimple, it works, but it’s got
\nto be done on a daily basis. <\/p>\n

1083
\n01:15:40,120 –> 01:15:46,520
\nThat means resist the influence
\nof selfishness that the world <\/p>\n

1084
\n01:15:46,520 –> 01:15:51,920
\nimposes upon you.
\nDaily resistant, daily take on <\/p>\n

1085
\n01:15:51,920 –> 01:15:56,200
\nboard the word of God.
\nDaily pray daily trust, not <\/p>\n

1086
\n01:15:56,200 –> 01:16:00,600
\nevery second day, daily
\ncontinually war those, fight <\/p>\n

1087
\n01:16:00,600 –> 01:16:03,920
\nthose battles.
\nSome you’ll lose, but thus <\/p>\n

1088
\n01:16:03,920 –> 01:16:06,920
\nforgiveness.
\nAnd because there’s forgiveness,<\/p>\n

1089
\n01:16:07,240 –> 01:16:11,280
\nthere’s victory.
\nThere’s victory in Christ Jesus.<\/p>\n

1090
\n01:16:11,680 –> 01:16:15,160
\nLet me finish with one verse.
\nI won’t explain it, I’ll just <\/p>\n

1091
\n01:16:15,160 –> 01:16:16,800
\nread it.
\nLet’s you know it backwards. <\/p>\n

1092
\n01:16:16,800 –> 01:16:20,600
\nFirst Corinthians 15 See our
\nlast verse. <\/p>\n

1093
\n01:16:22,280 –> 01:16:30,880
\nI know it’s the final victory of
\nthe Word, which endure forever <\/p>\n

1094
\n01:16:31,680 –> 01:16:39,560
\nover grass.
\nVerse 50 Now this I say, <\/p>\n

1095
\n01:16:39,560 –> 01:16:44,600
\nbrethren, that flesh and blood
\ngrass cannot inherit the Kingdom<\/p>\n

1096
\n01:16:44,600 –> 01:16:47,680
\nof God.
\nNeither does corruption inherit <\/p>\n

1097
\n01:16:47,680 –> 01:16:51,520
\nincorruption.
\nBehold, I show you a mystery. <\/p>\n

1098
\n01:16:52,160 –> 01:16:55,800
\nWe shall not all sleep, but we
\nshall all be changed. <\/p>\n

1099
\n01:16:57,120 –> 01:17:01,000
\nWe’ve been talking about moral
\nvictory, and the moral is the <\/p>\n

1100
\n01:17:01,000 –> 01:17:04,520
\nheartbeat.
\nAnd it will ensure this physical<\/p>\n

1101
\n01:17:04,520 –> 01:17:09,360
\nvictory in a moment, in the
\ntwinkling of an eye at the past <\/p>\n

1102
\n01:17:09,360 –> 01:17:11,680
\nTrump.
\nWell, the trumpets shall sound, <\/p>\n

1103
\n01:17:11,680 –> 01:17:14,040
\nand the dead should be raised
\nincorruptible. <\/p>\n

1104
\n01:17:14,280 –> 01:17:17,240
\nAnd we shall be changed.
\nFor this corruptible must put on<\/p>\n

1105
\n01:17:17,240 –> 01:17:20,760
\nincorruption, and this mortal
\nshall be brought put on <\/p>\n

1106
\n01:17:20,760 –> 01:17:23,320
\nimmortality.
\nNow note this. <\/p>\n

1107
\n01:17:23,320 –> 01:17:30,920
\nSo when and if you’ve got a
\npencil circle, when so when this<\/p>\n

1108
\n01:17:30,920 –> 01:17:36,280
\ncorruptible shall have put on in
\ncorruption, and when this mortal<\/p>\n

1109
\n01:17:36,280 –> 01:17:42,880
\nshall have put on immortality,
\nthen and circle then then shall <\/p>\n

1110
\n01:17:42,880 –> 01:17:47,120
\nbe brought to pass the saying
\nthat is written death <\/p>\n

1111
\n01:17:48,360 –> 01:17:53,400
\ngrassiness, death is swallowed
\nup in victory. <\/p>\n

1112
\n01:17:54,800 –> 01:17:57,200
\nA death.
\nWhere is thy sting, O grave, <\/p>\n

1113
\n01:17:57,200 –> 01:18:01,680
\nwhere is thy victory?
\nThe sting of death is sin, but <\/p>\n

1114
\n01:18:01,680 –> 01:18:06,240
\nthe and the strength of sin is
\nlaw earning. <\/p>\n

1115
\n01:18:06,240 –> 01:18:11,480
\nYou know you try earning, but
\nthanks be to God, which it’s not<\/p>\n

1116
\n01:18:11,480 –> 01:18:15,320
\nearning.
\nHe gives us the victory because <\/p>\n

1117
\n01:18:15,320 –> 01:18:18,920
\nChrist gained the victory let’s
\nus share it giveth us the <\/p>\n

1118
\n01:18:18,920 –> 01:18:21,480
\nvictory through our Lord Jesus
\nChrist. <\/p>\n

1119
\n01:18:21,480 –> 01:18:25,560
\nThat’s what that’s all about
\nfinal words. <\/p>\n

1120
\n01:18:26,200 –> 01:18:36,440
\nTherefore, my beloved brethren,
\nbe steadfast, unmovable, always <\/p>\n
