00:00:43,320<br \/>\nBevins from his series on Noah<br \/>\nentitled All That God Commanded <\/p>\n<p>12<br \/>\n00:00:43,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:47,560<br \/>\nHim, given at the 2022<br \/>\nMid-Atlantic Christadelphian <\/p>\n<p>13<br \/>\n00:00:47,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:51,000<br \/>\nBible School.<br \/>\nThe account of Noah, and more <\/p>\n<p>14<br \/>\n00:00:51,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:54,920<br \/>\nspecifically the flood, is such<br \/>\na one where it gets more <\/p>\n<p>15<br \/>\n00:00:54,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:00,280<br \/>\nrelatable and more sobering as<br \/>\nthe day draws near to our Lord&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>16<br \/>\n00:01:00,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:03,160<br \/>\nreturn.<br \/>\nTo see the exponential <\/p>\n<p>17<br \/>\n00:01:03,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:07,440<br \/>\nwickedness and complete<br \/>\nreplacement of the Creator is <\/p>\n<p>18<br \/>\n00:01:07,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:11,200<br \/>\nexactly what we were warned the<br \/>\nlast days would look like, and <\/p>\n<p>19<br \/>\n00:01:11,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:16,280<br \/>\nit makes the decision to repent<br \/>\nand get in the ark all the more <\/p>\n<p>20<br \/>\n00:01:16,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:22,480<br \/>\nreal as we see the flood coming.<br \/>\nThis specific class has a good <\/p>\n<p>21<br \/>\n00:01:22,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:26,120<br \/>\nreminder pertaining to that.<br \/>\nBrother Dennis emphasizes that <\/p>\n<p>22<br \/>\n00:01:26,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:30,040<br \/>\nNoah was perfectly obedient in<br \/>\nthe constructing of the ark, <\/p>\n<p>23<br \/>\n00:01:30,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:33,200<br \/>\neven to the type of wood that<br \/>\nwas used. <\/p>\n<p>24<br \/>\n00:01:34,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:39,240<br \/>\nIt reminds us that there is in<br \/>\nfact a difference between faith <\/p>\n<p>25<br \/>\n00:01:39,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:43,800<br \/>\nand presumption.<br \/>\nPresumption is doing whatever <\/p>\n<p>26<br \/>\n00:01:43,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:48,360<br \/>\nyou think is right any way you<br \/>\nwant to do it and believing that<\/p>\n<p>27<br \/>\n00:01:48,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:50,240<br \/>\nGod will support it no matter<br \/>\nwhat. <\/p>\n<p>28<br \/>\n00:01:50,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:56,680<br \/>\nFaith is doing what Noah did and<br \/>\nsaying this is a tough thing you<\/p>\n<p>29<br \/>\n00:01:56,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:00,800<br \/>\nask of me, God, and I know it&#8217;s<br \/>\nnot going to be pleasant. <\/p>\n<p>30<br \/>\n00:02:00,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:05,560<br \/>\nIn fact, very often it&#8217;s not.<br \/>\nBut I trust that you know best <\/p>\n<p>31<br \/>\n00:02:06,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:10,360<br \/>\nand I will do what you ask even<br \/>\nwhen we don&#8217;t see eye to eye. <\/p>\n<p>32<br \/>\n00:02:11,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:13,880<br \/>\nIt should be mentioned real<br \/>\nquickly that all of these <\/p>\n<p>33<br \/>\n00:02:13,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:17,160<br \/>\nclasses are recorded with the<br \/>\nvideo of the speaker and the <\/p>\n<p>34<br \/>\n00:02:17,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:20,880<br \/>\nslides on the Mid-Atlantic Coast<br \/>\nChristadelphian YouTube channel <\/p>\n<p>35<br \/>\n00:02:21,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:25,200<br \/>\nand there will be a link in the<br \/>\ndescription for those with that.<\/p>\n<p>36<br \/>\n00:02:25,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:29,600<br \/>\nHere is brother Dennis Bevins.<br \/>\nAll that God commanded him. <\/p>\n<p>37<br \/>\n00:02:29,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:33,080<br \/>\nI get to open with a confession.<br \/>\nI mean, Jason started this so <\/p>\n<p>38<br \/>\n00:02:33,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:36,720<br \/>\nit&#8217;s his fault, but I have a<br \/>\nmuch more recent infraction to <\/p>\n<p>39<br \/>\n00:02:36,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:39,960<br \/>\nconfess.<br \/>\nYesterday I said we would. <\/p>\n<p>40<br \/>\n00:02:40,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:42,760<br \/>\nSolve the math dilemma by the<br \/>\nend of the day. <\/p>\n<p>41<br \/>\n00:02:42,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:45,560<br \/>\nAnd those of you that were<br \/>\nwaiting for some magical <\/p>\n<p>42<br \/>\n00:02:45,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:51,560<br \/>\ninformation to happen during the<br \/>\nday, sorry if that would if this<\/p>\n<p>43<br \/>\n00:02:51,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:53,760<br \/>\nwas a study weekend, you would<br \/>\nhave got it by the end of the <\/p>\n<p>44<br \/>\n00:02:53,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:55,880<br \/>\nday, but it&#8217;s not, which means<br \/>\nyou get it the next day. <\/p>\n<p>45<br \/>\n00:02:55,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:57,960<br \/>\nSo we&#8217;re going to open with the<br \/>\nmath solution. <\/p>\n<p>46<br \/>\n00:02:57,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:01,320<br \/>\nSo those of you that have really<br \/>\nhad trouble since I said that, <\/p>\n<p>47<br \/>\n00:03:01,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:04,440<br \/>\nI&#8217;m hoping to earn the relief<br \/>\nright now. <\/p>\n<p>48<br \/>\n00:03:05,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:09,280<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ll pick up where we left off,<br \/>\nand we left off with Noah <\/p>\n<p>49<br \/>\n00:03:09,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:11,440<br \/>\nfinding grace in the eyes of the<br \/>\nLord. <\/p>\n<p>50<br \/>\n00:03:12,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:15,560<br \/>\nWe see he was given a warning of<br \/>\n120 years, what was going to <\/p>\n<p>51<br \/>\n00:03:15,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:21,280<br \/>\nhappen, and that he had three<br \/>\nkids mentioned by name at age <\/p>\n<p>52<br \/>\n00:03:21,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:24,040<br \/>\n500.<br \/>\nSo that&#8217;s the little math <\/p>\n<p>53<br \/>\n00:03:24,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:26,240<br \/>\nlesson.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re going to talk about right <\/p>\n<p>54<br \/>\n00:03:26,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:33,960<br \/>\nnow, verse 10, Noah begat three<br \/>\nsons, Shem, Hem, and Japheth. <\/p>\n<p>55<br \/>\n00:03:33,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:36,080<br \/>\nSo let&#8217;s add a few details to<br \/>\nthis. <\/p>\n<p>56<br \/>\n00:03:36,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:39,840<br \/>\nShem his name means name or<br \/>\nrenown. <\/p>\n<p>57<br \/>\n00:03:39,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:45,040<br \/>\nWe we saw that in verse 4.<br \/>\nSo Shem, the name hem means. <\/p>\n<p>58<br \/>\n00:03:45,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:50,120<br \/>\nHot or desert and Japheth is<br \/>\nopen or expanded. <\/p>\n<p>59<br \/>\n00:03:51,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:55,600<br \/>\nChapter 10 verse 21 tells us he<br \/>\nwas the oldest of the three. <\/p>\n<p>60<br \/>\n00:03:55,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:00,680<br \/>\nSo the oldest of these three is<br \/>\nJapheth, and that Chapter 11, <\/p>\n<p>61<br \/>\n00:04:00,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:05,160<br \/>\nverse 10 tells us Shem was two<br \/>\nyears younger, which makes him <\/p>\n<p>62<br \/>\n00:04:05,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:10,480<br \/>\n98 when the flood happened.<br \/>\nSo our note from chapter 5, <\/p>\n<p>63<br \/>\n00:04:10,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:13,560<br \/>\nverse 32, because he&#8217;s 500 years<br \/>\nold. <\/p>\n<p>64<br \/>\n00:04:13,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:19,120<br \/>\nSo let&#8217;s put some math to work<br \/>\nin Chapter 7, verse 6, which <\/p>\n<p>65<br \/>\n00:04:19,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:24,640<br \/>\nwe&#8217;ll talk about more tomorrow.<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s 600 years old when the <\/p>\n<p>66<br \/>\n00:04:24,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:28,560<br \/>\nflood happens, so we&#8217;ll talk<br \/>\nmore about that tomorrow. <\/p>\n<p>67<br \/>\n00:04:28,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:30,600<br \/>\nBut today we&#8217;re going to focus<br \/>\non the math. <\/p>\n<p>68<br \/>\n00:04:31,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:34,920<br \/>\nHow many years of warning?<br \/>\n120? <\/p>\n<p>69<br \/>\n00:04:35,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:44,240<br \/>\nWhat is 600 -, 100 and 24180?<br \/>\nHow old were was the oldest of <\/p>\n<p>70<br \/>\n00:04:44,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:47,320<br \/>\nthe three children when they got<br \/>\non the Ark? <\/p>\n<p>71<br \/>\n00:04:49,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:53,000<br \/>\n100.<br \/>\nSo Japheth is 100. <\/p>\n<p>72<br \/>\n00:04:53,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:55,920<br \/>\nShem is 98, Hem is somewhere<br \/>\nthereafter. <\/p>\n<p>73<br \/>\n00:04:56,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:04,560<br \/>\nSo they&#8217;ve got 120 years of<br \/>\nwarning, which means 20 years <\/p>\n<p>74<br \/>\n00:05:04,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:08,360<br \/>\nafter they were told by God<br \/>\nwe&#8217;re going to destroy this <\/p>\n<p>75<br \/>\n00:05:08,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:11,440<br \/>\nplanet.<br \/>\nThey looked at each other with <\/p>\n<p>76<br \/>\n00:05:11,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:16,240<br \/>\nloving eyes and said, honey, the<br \/>\nworld&#8217;s a mess. <\/p>\n<p>77<br \/>\n00:05:17,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:21,080<br \/>\nThe ecclesia is gone.<br \/>\nGod&#8217;s going to wipe it all <\/p>\n<p>78<br \/>\n00:05:21,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:22,840<br \/>\nclean.<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s. <\/p>\n<p>79<br \/>\n00:05:22,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:27,000<br \/>\nMake some children, shall we?<br \/>\nNow I want you to put that in <\/p>\n<p>80<br \/>\n00:05:27,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:30,040<br \/>\nperspective.<br \/>\nThis is the last days, and the <\/p>\n<p>81<br \/>\n00:05:30,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:36,040<br \/>\nthought of raising children in a<br \/>\nviolent, godless place was what <\/p>\n<p>82<br \/>\n00:05:36,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:41,520<br \/>\nwas happening in their life.<br \/>\nThis is a very dramatic detail <\/p>\n<p>83<br \/>\n00:05:41,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:42,800<br \/>\nin the story we&#8217;re going to look<br \/>\nat. <\/p>\n<p>84<br \/>\n00:05:42,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:45,600<br \/>\nSo we&#8217;re going to have some fun,<br \/>\nbut there&#8217;s a very serious <\/p>\n<p>85<br \/>\n00:05:45,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:52,960<br \/>\nundertone at the beginning of<br \/>\nthis class, and that is if they <\/p>\n<p>86<br \/>\n00:05:52,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:58,000<br \/>\nhad children after they were<br \/>\ntold that, and she&#8217;s not noted <\/p>\n<p>87<br \/>\n00:05:58,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:02,920<br \/>\nas Baron, is it possible they<br \/>\nhad other children before the <\/p>\n<p>88<br \/>\n00:06:02,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:06,680<br \/>\nthree that went on the ark?<br \/>\nI will argue it&#8217;s not only <\/p>\n<p>89<br \/>\n00:06:06,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:13,440<br \/>\npossible, it is likely.<br \/>\nNow, have you ever wondered why <\/p>\n<p>90<br \/>\n00:06:13,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:15,680<br \/>\nMissus Noah&#8217;s not mentioned in<br \/>\nthis story? <\/p>\n<p>91<br \/>\n00:06:16,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:18,400<br \/>\nEver wondered why is she not<br \/>\nmentioned? <\/p>\n<p>92<br \/>\n00:06:18,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:21,880<br \/>\nShe deserves to be mentioned.<br \/>\nWell, the root of that goes back<\/p>\n<p>93<br \/>\n00:06:21,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:26,960<br \/>\nto Genesis chapter 5.<br \/>\nIn Genesis chapter 5, the 1st 2 <\/p>\n<p>94<br \/>\n00:06:26,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:29,960<br \/>\nverses of the book of death,<br \/>\nbecause this one ends with and <\/p>\n<p>95<br \/>\n00:06:29,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:31,840<br \/>\nhe died and he died and he died<br \/>\nand he died so. <\/p>\n<p>96<br \/>\n00:06:31,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:36,880<br \/>\nEverybody in here dies the book<br \/>\nof the generation of Adam, which<\/p>\n<p>97<br \/>\n00:06:36,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:38,920<br \/>\nmakes sense as in Adam all men<br \/>\ndie. <\/p>\n<p>98<br \/>\n00:06:38,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:42,960<br \/>\nSo we&#8217;ve got a good warm up.<br \/>\nThe day that God created man in <\/p>\n<p>99<br \/>\n00:06:42,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:47,240<br \/>\nthe likeness of God made he him<br \/>\nmale and female created he them,<\/p>\n<p>100<br \/>\n00:06:47,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:53,160<br \/>\nHe blessed them and called their<br \/>\nname Adam in the day they were <\/p>\n<p>101<br \/>\n00:06:53,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:57,440<br \/>\ncreated.<br \/>\nThe first genealogy in Scripture<\/p>\n<p>102<br \/>\n00:06:57,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:59,320<br \/>\nmakes this point for us, and<br \/>\nwe&#8217;re going to carry it <\/p>\n<p>103<br \/>\n00:06:59,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:00,640<br \/>\nthroughout the rest of the<br \/>\nBible. <\/p>\n<p>104<br \/>\n00:07:01,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:06,720<br \/>\nIn the naming of the husband, we<br \/>\nhave the naming of the union, as<\/p>\n<p>105<br \/>\n00:07:06,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:10,760<br \/>\nthese two have become one<br \/>\ncalling their name. <\/p>\n<p>106<br \/>\n00:07:10,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:16,240<br \/>\nAdam tells us when we read about<br \/>\nNoah, it is not Noah the loan <\/p>\n<p>107<br \/>\n00:07:16,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:21,680<br \/>\nshark.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s Noah and his wife embedded <\/p>\n<p>108<br \/>\n00:07:21,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:25,920<br \/>\ntogether in the story.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re going to talk more about <\/p>\n<p>109<br \/>\n00:07:25,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:29,280<br \/>\ntheir story and how it relates<br \/>\nto genealogies at the end of <\/p>\n<p>110<br \/>\n00:07:29,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:30,920<br \/>\nthis class when we get to<br \/>\nMatthew 1. <\/p>\n<p>111<br \/>\n00:07:30,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:32,440<br \/>\nSo we&#8217;ll hold that thought for a<br \/>\nminute. <\/p>\n<p>112<br \/>\n00:07:33,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:38,920<br \/>\nBut this faithful couple who&#8217;d<br \/>\nbeen married for a few 100. <\/p>\n<p>113<br \/>\n00:07:38,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:46,480<br \/>\nYears decided to have children<br \/>\nwhen they had no doubt that God <\/p>\n<p>114<br \/>\n00:07:46,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:48,600<br \/>\nwas going to destroy the planet<br \/>\nthey were having these children <\/p>\n<p>115<br \/>\n00:07:48,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:51,560<br \/>\non.<br \/>\nNow, how many people were saved <\/p>\n<p>116<br \/>\n00:07:51,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:57,800<br \/>\non the Ark 8, the oldest of<br \/>\nwhich would have been 100? <\/p>\n<p>117<br \/>\n00:07:58,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:02,080<br \/>\nWell, let&#8217;s look at how.<br \/>\nLong it took people to have <\/p>\n<p>118<br \/>\n00:08:02,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:06,800<br \/>\nchildren in Genesis chapter 5,<br \/>\nAdam&#8217;s 130, before we have the <\/p>\n<p>119<br \/>\n00:08:06,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:11,680<br \/>\nname, before we have Seth.<br \/>\nWe know we had other children <\/p>\n<p>120<br \/>\n00:08:11,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:14,840<br \/>\nbefore then, Cain and Abel at<br \/>\nleast, but these guys all got <\/p>\n<p>121<br \/>\n00:08:14,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:16,600<br \/>\nmarried.<br \/>\nGirls had to be somewhere. <\/p>\n<p>122<br \/>\n00:08:16,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:18,280<br \/>\nSo we know they had other<br \/>\nchildren. <\/p>\n<p>123<br \/>\n00:08:18,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:22,640<br \/>\nBut the one mentioned in the<br \/>\ngenealogy was it 130. <\/p>\n<p>124<br \/>\n00:08:22,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:28,880<br \/>\nThen we have Seth, who&#8217;s 105<br \/>\nwhen he has Enos, who at 90 has <\/p>\n<p>125<br \/>\n00:08:28,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:33,320<br \/>\nCanaan 70, Mahalil 65, Jared<br \/>\n162. <\/p>\n<p>126<br \/>\n00:08:33,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:38,000<br \/>\nSo he&#8217;s the one that was a slow<br \/>\nstarter, Enoch at 65. <\/p>\n<p>127<br \/>\n00:08:38,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:41,400<br \/>\nNow we&#8217;re going the right way<br \/>\nagain, Methuselah 187, who&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>128<br \/>\n00:08:41,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:44,800<br \/>\ntrying to top Jared.<br \/>\nAnd then we have Lamech, who&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>129<br \/>\n00:08:44,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:48,120<br \/>\n182.<br \/>\nSo let&#8217;s put that in <\/p>\n<p>130<br \/>\n00:08:48,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:50,400<br \/>\nperspective.<br \/>\nThey all had sons and daughters.<\/p>\n<p>131<br \/>\n00:08:50,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:53,040<br \/>\nIn fact, we know Seth had at<br \/>\nleast two other older brothers. <\/p>\n<p>132<br \/>\n00:08:53,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:58,040<br \/>\nSo if Noah&#8217;s 500, that makes him<br \/>\nalmost three times as long as it<\/p>\n<p>133<br \/>\n00:08:58,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:01,960<br \/>\ntook Lamech or Methuselah to<br \/>\nhave the named child in the <\/p>\n<p>134<br \/>\n00:09:01,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:06,600<br \/>\ngenealogy, and almost 8 times as<br \/>\nlong as it took Enoch <\/p>\n<p>135<br \/>\n00:09:08,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:12,440<br \/>\ntranslation.<br \/>\nNoah and Missus Noah likely had <\/p>\n<p>136<br \/>\n00:09:12,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:17,640<br \/>\nother children, possibly<br \/>\ngrandchildren, great <\/p>\n<p>137<br \/>\n00:09:17,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:23,240<br \/>\ngrandchildren, great great<br \/>\ngrandchildren for sure. <\/p>\n<p>138<br \/>\n00:09:23,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:27,960<br \/>\nThey had aunts, uncles,<br \/>\nbrothers, sisters, lots of <\/p>\n<p>139<br \/>\n00:09:27,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:31,400<br \/>\ncousins.<br \/>\nSo when we talk about them <\/p>\n<p>140<br \/>\n00:09:31,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:36,240<br \/>\nsaving their family in the<br \/>\ndarkness of the world, this is <\/p>\n<p>141<br \/>\n00:09:36,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:38,160<br \/>\nwhere it gets very somber for<br \/>\nus. <\/p>\n<p>142<br \/>\n00:09:38,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:40,960<br \/>\nNot only do they know what it<br \/>\ntakes. <\/p>\n<p>143<br \/>\n00:09:40,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:43,640<br \/>\nTo rescue their children from<br \/>\nthe world. <\/p>\n<p>144<br \/>\n00:09:45,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:48,200<br \/>\nBut they intimately know what<br \/>\nit&#8217;s like to lose them to the <\/p>\n<p>145<br \/>\n00:09:48,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:51,400<br \/>\nworld.<br \/>\nIf you have ever felt alone, <\/p>\n<p>146<br \/>\n00:09:51,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:54,040<br \/>\nwhen you look at your children<br \/>\nand your grandchildren, think, <\/p>\n<p>147<br \/>\n00:09:54,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:59,640<br \/>\nhow could the world suck this<br \/>\nprecious life away from me and <\/p>\n<p>148<br \/>\n00:09:59,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:03,760<br \/>\ntake it away from the Father?<br \/>\nAnd we long for them to see the <\/p>\n<p>149<br \/>\n00:10:03,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:07,080<br \/>\nthings of God and come back as a<br \/>\nparent should. <\/p>\n<p>150<br \/>\n00:10:07,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:09,800<br \/>\nAnd we feel alone in that<br \/>\naspect. <\/p>\n<p>151<br \/>\n00:10:10,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:13,200<br \/>\nAnd we don&#8217;t have to go any<br \/>\nfarther than Noah and Missus <\/p>\n<p>152<br \/>\n00:10:13,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:19,240<br \/>\nNoah to know it is absolutely<br \/>\nunderstood how you feel because <\/p>\n<p>153<br \/>\n00:10:19,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:22,360<br \/>\nyou are not alone.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s been this way for thousands<\/p>\n<p>154<br \/>\n00:10:22,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:26,440<br \/>\nof years.<br \/>\nImagine hearing the taunts of <\/p>\n<p>155<br \/>\n00:10:26,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:30,160<br \/>\ntheir own children, friends,<br \/>\nfamily, neighbors. <\/p>\n<p>156<br \/>\n00:10:30,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:35,520<br \/>\nWhile preaching repentance and<br \/>\nthen for a moment imagine their <\/p>\n<p>157<br \/>\n00:10:35,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:38,320<br \/>\ncries for help as they drown in<br \/>\nthe waters of judgement. <\/p>\n<p>158<br \/>\n00:10:39,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:42,760<br \/>\nIt becomes a very different<br \/>\ntopic when we look at we don&#8217;t <\/p>\n<p>159<br \/>\n00:10:42,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:46,040<br \/>\ntell our children this in the<br \/>\nSunday school songs, which is <\/p>\n<p>160<br \/>\n00:10:46,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:50,800<br \/>\nprobably a good thing, but from<br \/>\nan adult perspective, what they <\/p>\n<p>161<br \/>\n00:10:50,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:55,000<br \/>\nwere asked to do the hard.<br \/>\nPart was not building a boat, <\/p>\n<p>162<br \/>\n00:10:56,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:59,400<br \/>\nthe hard part was walking away<br \/>\nfrom the family that had no <\/p>\n<p>163<br \/>\n00:10:59,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:03,360<br \/>\ninterest in the things of God.<br \/>\nWe are not alone in our <\/p>\n<p>164<br \/>\n00:11:03,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:05,360<br \/>\nstruggle.<br \/>\nThe scripture is loaded with <\/p>\n<p>165<br \/>\n00:11:05,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:08,560<br \/>\nexamples to show us that others<br \/>\nhave gone through what we are <\/p>\n<p>166<br \/>\n00:11:08,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:13,200<br \/>\nthat we can be related to in<br \/>\nscripture and there are a lot of<\/p>\n<p>167<br \/>\n00:11:13,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:15,840<br \/>\nthem that are quite easy to see,<br \/>\nbut I would argue none may be <\/p>\n<p>168<br \/>\n00:11:15,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:18,280<br \/>\nas.<br \/>\nProfound as this one now our <\/p>\n<p>169<br \/>\n00:11:18,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:23,520<br \/>\ntopic by its very tone takes on<br \/>\na somber tone itself, just by <\/p>\n<p>170<br \/>\n00:11:23,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:27,560<br \/>\nits nature.<br \/>\nBut there is a a good piece to <\/p>\n<p>171<br \/>\n00:11:27,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:30,440<br \/>\nthis too.<br \/>\nThe struggle before the glory or<\/p>\n<p>172<br \/>\n00:11:30,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:33,520<br \/>\na New Testament turns the cross<br \/>\nbefore the crown. <\/p>\n<p>173<br \/>\n00:11:33,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:37,120<br \/>\nSo we get to see the glory,<br \/>\nwhich is where we want to focus.<\/p>\n<p>174<br \/>\n00:11:37,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:39,960<br \/>\nBut before that glory there is<br \/>\ntragedy. <\/p>\n<p>175<br \/>\n00:11:41,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:47,320<br \/>\nOK, so chapter 6, verse 11, the<br \/>\nearth was corrupt before God and<\/p>\n<p>176<br \/>\n00:11:47,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:50,640<br \/>\nwas filled with violence.<br \/>\nSo again, this is the world we <\/p>\n<p>177<br \/>\n00:11:50,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:52,800<br \/>\nwant to have live in, we want to<br \/>\nhave children in. <\/p>\n<p>178<br \/>\n00:11:52,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:55,520<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s corrupt, it&#8217;s violent,<br \/>\nthere&#8217;s zero ecclesia. <\/p>\n<p>179<br \/>\n00:11:56,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:58,760<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s make some children.<br \/>\nI love that thought. <\/p>\n<p>180<br \/>\n00:11:59,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:02,200<br \/>\nSo the word corrupt is the same<br \/>\nword that&#8217;s going to be <\/p>\n<p>181<br \/>\n00:12:02,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:05,600<br \/>\ntranslated destroy in verse 13<br \/>\nand verse 17 in this chapter. <\/p>\n<p>182<br \/>\n00:12:05,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:10,840<br \/>\nSo the earth now has been<br \/>\ndestroyed before God. <\/p>\n<p>183<br \/>\n00:12:12,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:15,400<br \/>\nThis means in Hebrew spoil or<br \/>\nruin. <\/p>\n<p>184<br \/>\n00:12:15,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:19,440<br \/>\nSo really, literally, the earth<br \/>\nis spoiled now. <\/p>\n<p>185<br \/>\n00:12:19,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:24,400<br \/>\nThis is not soil contamination.<br \/>\nThis is the flesh running wild <\/p>\n<p>186<br \/>\n00:12:24,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:28,240<br \/>\nas the planet and its<br \/>\ninhabitants have chosen to <\/p>\n<p>187<br \/>\n00:12:28,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:29,880<br \/>\nfollow.<br \/>\nThe less of the flesh, the less <\/p>\n<p>188<br \/>\n00:12:29,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:33,760<br \/>\nof the eyes and the pride of<br \/>\nlife rather than the way of God.<\/p>\n<p>189<br \/>\n00:12:34,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:38,520<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s an immoral population that<br \/>\nGod has inspected and judged. <\/p>\n<p>190<br \/>\n00:12:38,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:40,880<br \/>\nThis is not an environmental<br \/>\nstudy. <\/p>\n<p>191<br \/>\n00:12:42,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:46,480<br \/>\nGod looked upon the earth.<br \/>\nBehold, it was corrupt and all <\/p>\n<p>192<br \/>\n00:12:46,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:49,840<br \/>\nflesh had corrupted his way upon<br \/>\nthe earth. <\/p>\n<p>193<br \/>\n00:12:50,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:54,680<br \/>\nAnd there is the point, his way<br \/>\ngoing God&#8217;s way. <\/p>\n<p>194<br \/>\n00:12:54,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:56,200<br \/>\nHere is the path that leads to<br \/>\nlife. <\/p>\n<p>195<br \/>\n00:12:56,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:58,840<br \/>\nAnd we&#8217;re told Noah walked God&#8217;s<br \/>\nway. <\/p>\n<p>196<br \/>\n00:13:00,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:04,120<br \/>\nBut then they&#8217;ve chosen their<br \/>\nown way, a way that was better, <\/p>\n<p>197<br \/>\n00:13:04,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:07,280<br \/>\na way that might have matched<br \/>\nwhat they would term as modern <\/p>\n<p>198<br \/>\n00:13:07,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:09,680<br \/>\nsensibility.<br \/>\nIt it fit in better with the <\/p>\n<p>199<br \/>\n00:13:09,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:13,320<br \/>\nthinking of the age, but it was<br \/>\nnot God&#8217;s direct path and <\/p>\n<p>200<br \/>\n00:13:13,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:19,640<br \/>\ntherefore it LED to death.<br \/>\nSurrender and control are very <\/p>\n<p>201<br \/>\n00:13:19,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:22,840<br \/>\ndifficult things for human<br \/>\nnature, and this is not just for<\/p>\n<p>202<br \/>\n00:13:22,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:24,560<br \/>\nus.<br \/>\nOur Lord Jesus struggled with <\/p>\n<p>203<br \/>\n00:13:24,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:27,320<br \/>\nthis too.<br \/>\nIn his prayer in Gethsemane. <\/p>\n<p>204<br \/>\n00:13:27,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:31,760<br \/>\nHe was praying that God give him<br \/>\nthe strength to endure. <\/p>\n<p>205<br \/>\n00:13:32,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:33,960<br \/>\nSomething he didn&#8217;t want to go<br \/>\nthrough. <\/p>\n<p>206<br \/>\n00:13:34,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:36,600<br \/>\nFather.<br \/>\nIf there&#8217;s any, I&#8217;ll paraphrase.<\/p>\n<p>207<br \/>\n00:13:36,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:42,160<br \/>\nIf there&#8217;s any other way to make<br \/>\nthis happen, I&#8217;d like that route<\/p>\n<p>208<br \/>\n00:13:42,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:46,080<br \/>\nbecause I know what this one is,<br \/>\nshameful, painful. <\/p>\n<p>209<br \/>\n00:13:47,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:53,400<br \/>\nBut if there&#8217;s no other way,<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll do it your way. <\/p>\n<p>210<br \/>\n00:13:54,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:58,240<br \/>\nEven Jesus had that struggle.<br \/>\nSo for us to not recognize it&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>211<br \/>\n00:13:58,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:02,600<br \/>\na problem for us, we have to be<br \/>\ncareful because we want to have <\/p>\n<p>212<br \/>\n00:14:02,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:05,160<br \/>\ncontrol.<br \/>\nWe want to control the dictate <\/p>\n<p>213<br \/>\n00:14:05,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:08,680<br \/>\nthe terms of our life.<br \/>\nThat is not how our God works. <\/p>\n<p>214<br \/>\n00:14:09,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:11,600<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s given us an opportunity to<br \/>\nbe part of His glory, but His <\/p>\n<p>215<br \/>\n00:14:11,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:14,640<br \/>\nglory is going to happen with or<br \/>\nwithout all of us. <\/p>\n<p>216<br \/>\n00:14:15,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:18,400<br \/>\nDoing things God&#8217;s way gives us<br \/>\nan access to that glory. <\/p>\n<p>217<br \/>\n00:14:18,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:23,840<br \/>\nSurrendering what we think is<br \/>\nright to do what God thinks is <\/p>\n<p>218<br \/>\n00:14:23,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:28,440<br \/>\nright is hard for our nature.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s so much easier to convince <\/p>\n<p>219<br \/>\n00:14:28,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:30,200<br \/>\nourselves we&#8217;re right and God&#8217;s<br \/>\non our side. <\/p>\n<p>220<br \/>\n00:14:30,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:32,200<br \/>\nYou probably don&#8217;t have any<br \/>\ntrouble doing that. <\/p>\n<p>221<br \/>\n00:14:32,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:34,160<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t.<br \/>\nWe got to hit the pause. <\/p>\n<p>222<br \/>\n00:14:34,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:37,600<br \/>\nButton and say wait a minute, is<br \/>\nthis Dennis&#8217;s way? <\/p>\n<p>223<br \/>\n00:14:38,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:42,720<br \/>\nOr is this God&#8217;s way?<br \/>\nWell, they had corrupted their <\/p>\n<p>224<br \/>\n00:14:42,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:45,200<br \/>\nway and this goes back to<br \/>\nGenesis chapter 3. <\/p>\n<p>225<br \/>\n00:14:45,520 &#8211;&gt;

00:18:21,200<br \/>\ndied five years earlier.<br \/>\nThey died of natural causes <\/p>\n<p>296<br \/>\n00:18:21,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:25,040<br \/>\nbefore the flood.<br \/>\nBegan so the preservation of the<\/p>\n<p>297<br \/>\n00:18:25,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:29,320<br \/>\ngrandfather and the father, so<br \/>\nhe didn&#8217;t have to witness the <\/p>\n<p>298<br \/>\n00:18:29,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:32,440<br \/>\nloss of their life in the flood.<br \/>\nOr perhaps there&#8217;d be a few more<\/p>\n<p>299<br \/>\n00:18:32,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:36,920<br \/>\nrooms in it to preserve them.<br \/>\nOur God has thought this out. <\/p>\n<p>300<br \/>\n00:18:37,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:41,160<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s more math if you want it<br \/>\nin Genesis chapter 5, but the <\/p>\n<p>301<br \/>\n00:18:41,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:44,440<br \/>\ntime has come.<br \/>\nThe warning of God had been <\/p>\n<p>302<br \/>\n00:18:44,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:46,920<br \/>\nignored.<br \/>\nThe message of Noah&#8217;s preaching <\/p>\n<p>303<br \/>\n00:18:47,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:51,080<br \/>\nhad been endured long enough.<br \/>\nVerse 37 and now here and we <\/p>\n<p>304<br \/>\n00:18:51,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:54,280<br \/>\nrecall Jesus warning us to put<br \/>\nit to our day. <\/p>\n<p>305<br \/>\n00:18:56,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:59,080<br \/>\nNow we looked at this verse<br \/>\nalready, but I want to focus on <\/p>\n<p>306<br \/>\n00:18:59,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:02,320<br \/>\nthe last one.<br \/>\nSo eating, drinking, marrying, <\/p>\n<p>307<br \/>\n00:19:02,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:05,040<br \/>\ngiving and mirrors, we tied that<br \/>\nnicely to today and the day of <\/p>\n<p>308<br \/>\n00:19:05,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:07,640<br \/>\nNoah.<br \/>\nBut it says they knew not until <\/p>\n<p>309<br \/>\n00:19:07,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:09,760<br \/>\nthe flood came and took them all<br \/>\naway. <\/p>\n<p>310<br \/>\n00:19:09,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:11,280<br \/>\nSo shall the coming the Son of<br \/>\nMan be. <\/p>\n<p>311<br \/>\n00:19:11,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:12,960<br \/>\nAnd so we&#8217;ve made the<br \/>\nconnection. <\/p>\n<p>312<br \/>\n00:19:12,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:16,280<br \/>\nBut the part I want to focus on<br \/>\nis that they knew not. <\/p>\n<p>313<br \/>\n00:19:17,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:20,080<br \/>\nThat is the intimate knowledge<br \/>\nword in Greek. <\/p>\n<p>314<br \/>\n00:19:20,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:23,480<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not that they&#8217;d never heard<br \/>\nthe message before. <\/p>\n<p>315<br \/>\n00:19:23,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:26,200<br \/>\nOh, they&#8217;d casually heard it,<br \/>\nprobably to ad nauseam. <\/p>\n<p>316<br \/>\n00:19:26,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:28,600<br \/>\nOh, yeah, I know the flood&#8217;s<br \/>\ncoming. <\/p>\n<p>317<br \/>\n00:19:28,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:30,280<br \/>\nThe waters are falling from the<br \/>\nsky. <\/p>\n<p>318<br \/>\n00:19:30,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:33,000<br \/>\nOK, here comes Noah.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re going to hear more about <\/p>\n<p>319<br \/>\n00:19:33,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:34,800<br \/>\nthe water.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m saying it&#8217;s not that they <\/p>\n<p>320<br \/>\n00:19:34,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:37,880<br \/>\ndidn&#8217;t hear the message if they<br \/>\nhad disregarded it. <\/p>\n<p>321<br \/>\n00:19:37,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:41,280<br \/>\nThey didn&#8217;t intimately<br \/>\nunderstand what God was trying <\/p>\n<p>322<br \/>\n00:19:41,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:45,080<br \/>\nto do to get them to change for<br \/>\ntheir own good because they were<\/p>\n<p>323<br \/>\n00:19:45,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:47,160<br \/>\nnot interested in God&#8217;s order<br \/>\nfor their lives. <\/p>\n<p>324<br \/>\n00:19:47,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:50,120<br \/>\nAnd therefore had no need for<br \/>\nsalvation. <\/p>\n<p>325<br \/>\n00:19:50,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:53,560<br \/>\nThey were too busy satisfying<br \/>\nthemselves by eating, drinking <\/p>\n<p>326<br \/>\n00:19:53,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:56,840<br \/>\nand marrying to be distracted by<br \/>\nthe promises of Almighty God. <\/p>\n<p>327<br \/>\n00:19:57,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:00,200<br \/>\nAnd that&#8217;s what Jesus says.<br \/>\nWatch out, because that&#8217;s what <\/p>\n<p>328<br \/>\n00:20:00,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:01,760<br \/>\nit&#8217;s going to be like when I<br \/>\ncome back. <\/p>\n<p>329<br \/>\n00:20:02,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:08,680<br \/>\nAnd so we look today and can we<br \/>\nsee that in the world, in the <\/p>\n<p>330<br \/>\n00:20:08,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:13,960<br \/>\nmeeting, in our families?<br \/>\nAnd when we see that note of <\/p>\n<p>331<br \/>\n00:20:13,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:18,920<br \/>\ntragedy, there&#8217;s a reminder to.<br \/>\nUs that there is hope in that, <\/p>\n<p>332<br \/>\n00:20:18,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:22,880<br \/>\nthat the redemption of the<br \/>\nremnants is drawing not. <\/p>\n<p>333<br \/>\n00:20:24,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:28,080<br \/>\nSo he says make an ark of Gopher<br \/>\nwood rooms, Thou shalt make of <\/p>\n<p>334<br \/>\n00:20:28,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:29,880<br \/>\nthe ark, pitch it within and<br \/>\nwithout, with pitch. <\/p>\n<p>335<br \/>\n00:20:30,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:31,720<br \/>\nAnd this is an interesting<br \/>\ndetail. <\/p>\n<p>336<br \/>\n00:20:32,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:36,080<br \/>\nWhy are we told what kind of<br \/>\nwood to use and to use pitch on <\/p>\n<p>337<br \/>\n00:20:36,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:39,320<br \/>\nthe inside and outside?<br \/>\nI mean, God didn&#8217;t say we got to<\/p>\n<p>338<br \/>\n00:20:39,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:41,840<br \/>\nrescue somebody on this planet.<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s pick the guy who knows how<\/p>\n<p>339<br \/>\n00:20:41,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:44,400<br \/>\nto build a boat.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s not what happened. <\/p>\n<p>340<br \/>\n00:20:44,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:46,920<br \/>\nHe was picked because he was<br \/>\nfollowing God&#8217;s path. <\/p>\n<p>341<br \/>\n00:20:47,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:49,280<br \/>\nBut he&#8217;s a guy who lives in a<br \/>\ndesert. <\/p>\n<p>342<br \/>\n00:20:49,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:51,800<br \/>\nThis is not a Yacht Club that<br \/>\nhe&#8217;s raised in. <\/p>\n<p>343<br \/>\n00:20:52,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:55,680<br \/>\nHe lives in a region where<br \/>\nthere&#8217;s water around it. <\/p>\n<p>344<br \/>\n00:20:55,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:58,440<br \/>\nBut this is not like, hey, let&#8217;s<br \/>\ngo on a leisure cruise together.<\/p>\n<p>345<br \/>\n00:20:58,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:00,360<br \/>\nThey&#8217;re not boat builders by<br \/>\ntrade. <\/p>\n<p>346<br \/>\n00:21:00,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:06,280<br \/>\nSo Moses, Noah is told, here&#8217;s<br \/>\nhow you do it. <\/p>\n<p>347<br \/>\n00:21:06,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:11,680<br \/>\nNow, the good news is everything<br \/>\nthat God told Noah he did, well,<\/p>\n<p>348<br \/>\n00:21:11,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:13,360<br \/>\ngood thing.<br \/>\nWhat if he decided to know I&#8217;m <\/p>\n<p>349<br \/>\n00:21:13,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:14,760<br \/>\nnot?<br \/>\nInterested in this Gopher wood <\/p>\n<p>350<br \/>\n00:21:14,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:16,560<br \/>\nstuff.<br \/>\nMaybe I&#8217;ll use balsa. <\/p>\n<p>351<br \/>\n00:21:17,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:22,720<br \/>\nProbably a bad idea so it&#8217;s good<br \/>\nthat God said Noah this is what <\/p>\n<p>352<br \/>\n00:21:22,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:27,440<br \/>\nyou need to do is OK, we&#8217;ll do<br \/>\nthat and so the word ark. <\/p>\n<p>353<br \/>\n00:21:27,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:30,120<br \/>\nThe only other use of this in<br \/>\nHebrew is actually. <\/p>\n<p>354<br \/>\n00:21:30,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:33,960<br \/>\nExodus chapter 2, where we&#8217;re<br \/>\ntalking about Moses. <\/p>\n<p>355<br \/>\n00:21:33,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:36,160<br \/>\nSo the word was on my page.<br \/>\nIt didn&#8217;t just come out of <\/p>\n<p>356<br \/>\n00:21:36,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:39,640<br \/>\nnowhere.<br \/>\nTalking about Moses and his ark.<\/p>\n<p>357<br \/>\n00:21:39,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:43,040<br \/>\nSo the connection between the<br \/>\nsalvation of Israel and the <\/p>\n<p>358<br \/>\n00:21:43,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:46,720<br \/>\nsalvation of the family of Noah<br \/>\nis made for us in Scripture. <\/p>\n<p>359<br \/>\n00:21:48,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:51,440<br \/>\nAnd then we have the use of<br \/>\nwood, which of course now is <\/p>\n<p>360<br \/>\n00:21:51,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:55,440<br \/>\nbeing used to save the family, a<br \/>\ntype of salvation which we can <\/p>\n<p>361<br \/>\n00:21:55,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:59,000<br \/>\nconnect right to the cross of<br \/>\nJesus, which we will when we get<\/p>\n<p>362<br \/>\n00:21:59,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:02,600<br \/>\nto chapter 8.<br \/>\nThe word rooms in the Hebrew <\/p>\n<p>363<br \/>\n00:22:02,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:07,320<br \/>\nreally means nests.<br \/>\nSo it was intended to be comfort<\/p>\n<p>364<br \/>\n00:22:08,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:12,840<br \/>\nto the animals by God.<br \/>\nSo he&#8217;s been given direction. <\/p>\n<p>365<br \/>\n00:22:14,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:15,480<br \/>\nOn how to take.<br \/>\nCare of the animals. <\/p>\n<p>366<br \/>\n00:22:15,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:18,880<br \/>\nNow we just looked at this in<br \/>\nthe last class so I I won&#8217;t read<\/p>\n<p>367<br \/>\n00:22:18,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:23,320<br \/>\nit again, but just note there<br \/>\nare abundant ties to the Lord <\/p>\n<p>368<br \/>\n00:22:23,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:25,120<br \/>\nJesus as we start looking at<br \/>\nthe. <\/p>\n<p>369<br \/>\n00:22:25,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:26,960<br \/>\nArk.<br \/>\nAnd the calling of the animals <\/p>\n<p>370<br \/>\n00:22:26,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:30,800<br \/>\nto the ark, and the preparations<br \/>\nof the ark, the ark itself, the <\/p>\n<p>371<br \/>\n00:22:30,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:34,680<br \/>\nwater around the the ark, you&#8217;re<br \/>\ngoing to go on and on to see. <\/p>\n<p>372<br \/>\n00:22:34,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:38,680<br \/>\nEven some of the animals called<br \/>\nout by name are direct <\/p>\n<p>373<br \/>\n00:22:38,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:40,800<br \/>\nreferences to the work of our<br \/>\nLord. <\/p>\n<p>374<br \/>\n00:22:41,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:43,920<br \/>\nAnd by the time we get to<br \/>\nChapter 8, hopefully I will have<\/p>\n<p>375<br \/>\n00:22:43,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:46,600<br \/>\nthat statement proved.<br \/>\nSo they&#8217;re told to put a <\/p>\n<p>376<br \/>\n00:22:46,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:49,200<br \/>\ncovering, which is what the word<br \/>\npitch really is, completely <\/p>\n<p>377<br \/>\n00:22:49,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:52,680<br \/>\nwithin and without, which ties<br \/>\nus directly to immersion in <\/p>\n<p>378<br \/>\n00:22:52,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:57,000<br \/>\nbaptism with waters all around,<br \/>\na protective covering on the <\/p>\n<p>379<br \/>\n00:22:57,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:58,200<br \/>\nwood.<br \/>\nSo the covering of. <\/p>\n<p>380<br \/>\n00:22:58,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:01,920<br \/>\nSin requires the shedding of<br \/>\nblood, so we&#8217;ve got the covering<\/p>\n<p>381<br \/>\n00:23:01,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:05,480<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s been provided by God in<br \/>\norder for us to have hope. <\/p>\n<p>382<br \/>\n00:23:05,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:09,080<br \/>\nThe symbolism of what&#8217;s being<br \/>\nbrought to this family is <\/p>\n<p>383<br \/>\n00:23:09,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:13,120<br \/>\nastounding.<br \/>\nNow this is the fashion which <\/p>\n<p>384<br \/>\n00:23:13,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:15,560<br \/>\nyou will make it.<br \/>\nThe length of it shall be 100 <\/p>\n<p>385<br \/>\n00:23:15,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:17,880<br \/>\ncubits, the breadth of it 50<br \/>\ncubits, the height of it 30 <\/p>\n<p>386<br \/>\n00:23:17,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:19,920<br \/>\ncubits.<br \/>\nSo we&#8217;ve got specific detail, <\/p>\n<p>387<br \/>\n00:23:19,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:22,040<br \/>\nwood type, nest pitch<br \/>\ndimensions. <\/p>\n<p>388<br \/>\n00:23:22,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:25,040<br \/>\nThey&#8217;re following the<br \/>\ninstructions of God, which is an<\/p>\n<p>389<br \/>\n00:23:25,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:28,240<br \/>\nexhortation to us.<br \/>\nIf we are constantly reading and<\/p>\n<p>390<br \/>\n00:23:28,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:31,080<br \/>\nstudying the word of God, we get<br \/>\nthe opportunity to get what He <\/p>\n<p>391<br \/>\n00:23:31,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:34,000<br \/>\nwants us to do.<br \/>\nDo we then take what He wants us<\/p>\n<p>392<br \/>\n00:23:34,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:36,600<br \/>\nto do and try to make our life<br \/>\nmatch it? <\/p>\n<p>393<br \/>\n00:23:37,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:40,280<br \/>\nBecause the natural inclination<br \/>\nof all of us is to take what we <\/p>\n<p>394<br \/>\n00:23:40,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:43,800<br \/>\nread in His Word and try to see<br \/>\nif we can make our life fit it. <\/p>\n<p>395<br \/>\n00:23:44,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:48,320<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a difference trying to<br \/>\njustify what I want to do with <\/p>\n<p>396<br \/>\n00:23:48,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:52,040<br \/>\nthe support of Scripture versus<br \/>\nletting God tell me what I <\/p>\n<p>397<br \/>\n00:23:52,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:55,480<br \/>\nshould do and changing my life<br \/>\nas necessary to make that so. <\/p>\n<p>398<br \/>\n00:23:56,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:00,560<br \/>\nSo the approximate dimensions<br \/>\nthen Well it gives us since we <\/p>\n<p>399<br \/>\n00:24:00,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:05,680<br \/>\nlike feet here 450 feet, 75 feet<br \/>\nby 45 feet high. <\/p>\n<p>400<br \/>\n00:24:05,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:08,960<br \/>\nSo that&#8217;s.<br \/>\nApproximate dimensions using <\/p>\n<p>401<br \/>\n00:24:08,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:13,160<br \/>\nabout 18 inches for a cubit.<br \/>\nThis is a more modern ish <\/p>\n<p>402<br \/>\n00:24:13,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:16,360<br \/>\nversion of that if you will.<br \/>\nBasically, you&#8217;re looking at a <\/p>\n<p>403<br \/>\n00:24:16,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:20,880<br \/>\ngiant wooden box about the size<br \/>\nof a football field if you add <\/p>\n<p>404<br \/>\n00:24:20,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:22,720<br \/>\nthe track.<br \/>\nAround it, maybe the first row <\/p>\n<p>405<br \/>\n00:24:22,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:26,680<br \/>\nor so of the stands.<br \/>\nSo put in your mind this picture<\/p>\n<p>406<br \/>\n00:24:26,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:31,080<br \/>\ngiant wooden box about the size<br \/>\nof a high school football field <\/p>\n<p>407<br \/>\n00:24:32,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:34,600<br \/>\nin the desert.<br \/>\nHe wouldn&#8217;t have looked crazy at<\/p>\n<p>408<br \/>\n00:24:34,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:37,520<br \/>\nall, I&#8217;m sure.<br \/>\nNo, it&#8217;s funny because there was<\/p>\n<p>409<br \/>\n00:24:37,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:40,960<br \/>\na phrase said about this ship<br \/>\nthat should have been haunting <\/p>\n<p>410<br \/>\n00:24:40,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:44,440<br \/>\nto anyone who walked on it.<br \/>\nRemember what that phrase was? <\/p>\n<p>411<br \/>\n00:24:45,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:47,720<br \/>\nYeah, unsinkable.<br \/>\nIn fact, the actual quote is <\/p>\n<p>412<br \/>\n00:24:47,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:50,040<br \/>\neven God himself couldn&#8217;t sink<br \/>\nthis ship. <\/p>\n<p>413<br \/>\n00:24:50,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:53,360<br \/>\nBoy, you asked for it.<br \/>\nYou almost said. <\/p>\n<p>414<br \/>\n00:24:53,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:55,160<br \/>\nAll right, God, let&#8217;s see what<br \/>\nyou got. <\/p>\n<p>415<br \/>\n00:24:55,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:58,760<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s a bad decision.<br \/>\nAs we know, but so. <\/p>\n<p>416<br \/>\n00:24:59,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:02,000<br \/>\nExplain that one.<br \/>\nHow do the best engineers that <\/p>\n<p>417<br \/>\n00:25:02,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:06,560<br \/>\nhumans on the planet have to<br \/>\noffer with 4000 years of boat <\/p>\n<p>418<br \/>\n00:25:06,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:09,000<br \/>\nbuilding experience come up with<br \/>\nsomething that can&#8217;t make it <\/p>\n<p>419<br \/>\n00:25:09,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:13,480<br \/>\npass?<br \/>\nA chunk of ice and God and a <\/p>\n<p>420<br \/>\n00:25:13,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:17,640<br \/>\ncouple people in a desert with<br \/>\nsome wood can make something <\/p>\n<p>421<br \/>\n00:25:17,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:21,680<br \/>\nthat saves the earth.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not about us, it&#8217;s about <\/p>\n<p>422<br \/>\n00:25:21,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:24,120<br \/>\nour God.<br \/>\nOur God&#8217;s in control. <\/p>\n<p>423<br \/>\n00:25:24,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:28,560<br \/>\nThe ark would never have worked<br \/>\nif it was up to Noah and his <\/p>\n<p>424<br \/>\n00:25:28,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:32,920<br \/>\nfamily to figure out how and<br \/>\nwhat but to follow the plan of <\/p>\n<p>425<br \/>\n00:25:32,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:34,520<br \/>\nGod.<br \/>\nThat we can do. <\/p>\n<p>426<br \/>\n00:25:34,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:36,720<br \/>\nAnd if we follow the plan of<br \/>\nGod, we can be saved. <\/p>\n<p>427<br \/>\n00:25:36,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:41,280<br \/>\nThe message rings true to today.<br \/>\nNow he&#8217;s told, Put a window in <\/p>\n<p>428<br \/>\n00:25:41,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:45,080<br \/>\nthe Ark, a cubit, and in a cubit<br \/>\nthou shalt finish it above the <\/p>\n<p>429<br \/>\n00:25:45,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:46,720<br \/>\ndoor of the Ark.<br \/>\nThou shalt set on the side, <\/p>\n<p>430<br \/>\n00:25:46,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:48,880<br \/>\nlower, second, third stories.<br \/>\nThou shalt make it. <\/p>\n<p>431<br \/>\n00:25:49,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:52,000<br \/>\nThe RSV says it this way.<br \/>\nMake a roof for the ark and <\/p>\n<p>432<br \/>\n00:25:52,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:55,920<br \/>\nfinish it to a cubit above so<br \/>\nthe word window is a different. <\/p>\n<p>433<br \/>\n00:25:55,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:58,720<br \/>\nOne than we&#8217;ll see in chapter 8,<br \/>\nverse six in a couple days. <\/p>\n<p>434<br \/>\n00:25:59,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:02,800<br \/>\nThis particular word is used 24<br \/>\ntimes in the Old Testament. <\/p>\n<p>435<br \/>\n00:26:02,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:05,560<br \/>\nI told you before, I get excited<br \/>\nabout things divisible by 7:00 <\/p>\n<p>436<br \/>\n00:26:05,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:09,840<br \/>\nand 12:00. 24 times in the Old<br \/>\nTestament, this is the only one <\/p>\n<p>437<br \/>\n00:26:09,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:13,760<br \/>\ntranslated window.<br \/>\nThe other 23 are all translated <\/p>\n<p>438<br \/>\n00:26:13,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:17,120<br \/>\nnoon or noonday.<br \/>\nSo what we have here is not what<\/p>\n<p>439<br \/>\n00:26:17,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:20,280<br \/>\nyou and I would call a window,<br \/>\nbut what we have is an opening <\/p>\n<p>440<br \/>\n00:26:20,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:22,840<br \/>\nacross the upper layer of the<br \/>\narc for ventilation. <\/p>\n<p>441<br \/>\n00:26:23,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:27,520<br \/>\nThat makes sense.<br \/>\nYou have a floating zoo. <\/p>\n<p>442<br \/>\n00:26:29,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:31,960<br \/>\nThink about this for a minute.<br \/>\nAnimals don&#8217;t always smell <\/p>\n<p>443<br \/>\n00:26:31,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:34,760<br \/>\ngreat, let alone when they&#8217;ve<br \/>\nbeen hanging out together for a <\/p>\n<p>444<br \/>\n00:26:34,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:37,920<br \/>\nyear or so and he&#8217;s providing<br \/>\nfood and you know what happens <\/p>\n<p>445<br \/>\n00:26:37,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:40,680<br \/>\nafter they eat?<br \/>\nSo God thought of everything. <\/p>\n<p>446<br \/>\n00:26:41,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:46,400<br \/>\nHe had a plan and he had<br \/>\norchestrated it to the T Now as <\/p>\n<p>447<br \/>\n00:26:46,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:51,440<br \/>\nwe look at this, we get to see<br \/>\nthe example of God knowing where<\/p>\n<p>448<br \/>\n00:26:51,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:53,720<br \/>\nthis is going and us trusting<br \/>\nour God. <\/p>\n<p>449<br \/>\n00:26:54,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:58,120<br \/>\nAnd we&#8217;re going to talk about<br \/>\nthat in detail later. <\/p>\n<p>450<br \/>\n00:26:58,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:01,960<br \/>\nI want to touch it right now.<br \/>\nThis is one artist&#8217;s rendition. <\/p>\n<p>451<br \/>\n00:27:01,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:04,960<br \/>\nThe reason I like it is because<br \/>\nit&#8217;s the shape of a box, not the<\/p>\n<p>452<br \/>\n00:27:04,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:08,680<br \/>\nPretty Little, you know, boat<br \/>\nwith like 7 animals on the top <\/p>\n<p>453<br \/>\n00:27:08,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:10,240<br \/>\nwhich would not quite work and<br \/>\nthe. <\/p>\n<p>454<br \/>\n00:27:10,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:13,360<br \/>\nWe see the giraffe and we wave.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not the one that&#8217;s going to<\/p>\n<p>455<br \/>\n00:27:13,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:17,280<br \/>\nfit a giant floating box of<br \/>\nthree stories and roof on a <\/p>\n<p>456<br \/>\n00:27:17,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:19,120<br \/>\nwindow line on top for<br \/>\nventilation. <\/p>\n<p>457<br \/>\n00:27:19,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:22,840<br \/>\nIs effectively what we have.<br \/>\nBut here&#8217;s the part that&#8217;s just <\/p>\n<p>458<br \/>\n00:27:22,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:26,960<br \/>\nremarkable to me.<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s told to build a door. <\/p>\n<p>459<br \/>\n00:27:27,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:31,800<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s only one way in.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s only one way in, and <\/p>\n<p>460<br \/>\n00:27:31,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:34,640<br \/>\nthat way is God&#8217;s way.<br \/>\nYou make a hole in the side of <\/p>\n<p>461<br \/>\n00:27:34,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:36,440<br \/>\nthis giant boat that I&#8217;m going<br \/>\nto make float. <\/p>\n<p>462<br \/>\n00:27:37,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:41,520<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll take care of the rest.<br \/>\nI want you to notice for just <\/p>\n<p>463<br \/>\n00:27:41,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:44,800<br \/>\none second, there&#8217;s no education<br \/>\nhere for him to build a pulley <\/p>\n<p>464<br \/>\n00:27:44,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:47,560<br \/>\nsystem to close this door.<br \/>\nAnd I want you to for a moment <\/p>\n<p>465<br \/>\n00:27:47,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:51,360<br \/>\nthink when the rain starts<br \/>\ncoming, God&#8217;s going to close <\/p>\n<p>466<br \/>\n00:27:51,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:54,720<br \/>\nthis door.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a faith that God will <\/p>\n<p>467<br \/>\n00:27:55,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:58,560<br \/>\nbecause that faith that God will<br \/>\nclose the door. <\/p>\n<p>468<br \/>\n00:27:58,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:00,840<br \/>\nIf he doesn&#8217;t, then that boat is<br \/>\njust becomes your grave. <\/p>\n<p>469<br \/>\n00:28:01,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:05,840<br \/>\nBut there&#8217;s also a mercy,<br \/>\nbecause if God&#8217;s closing the <\/p>\n<p>470<br \/>\n00:28:05,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:08,440<br \/>\ndoor.<br \/>\nYou&#8217;re not the one doing it. <\/p>\n<p>471<br \/>\n00:28:09,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:11,960<br \/>\nFor those that might be running,<br \/>\ngoing wait, we should have paid <\/p>\n<p>472<br \/>\n00:28:11,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:14,000<br \/>\nmore attention before.<br \/>\nNow I&#8217;m not. <\/p>\n<p>473<br \/>\n00:28:14,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:16,520<br \/>\nTrying to suggest that Noah and<br \/>\nhis family lived in the suburbs <\/p>\n<p>474<br \/>\n00:28:16,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:20,640<br \/>\nand there were 800 homes around<br \/>\nthem, but the odds of them <\/p>\n<p>475<br \/>\n00:28:20,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:23,640<br \/>\nhaving family in close proximity<br \/>\nare quite. <\/p>\n<p>476<br \/>\n00:28:23,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:28,480<br \/>\nHigh, Let&#8217;s look at John 14 so<br \/>\nwe can tie Jesus to the door as <\/p>\n<p>477<br \/>\n00:28:28,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:31,360<br \/>\nwell.<br \/>\nI am the way, the truth and the <\/p>\n<p>478<br \/>\n00:28:31,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:33,920<br \/>\nlife.<br \/>\nNo man cometh to the Father, but<\/p>\n<p>479<br \/>\n00:28:33,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:37,800<br \/>\nby me.<br \/>\nTwo specific instructions let <\/p>\n<p>480<br \/>\n00:28:37,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:40,440<br \/>\nlight in.<br \/>\nAnd there&#8217;s only one door. <\/p>\n<p>481<br \/>\n00:28:41,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:42,760<br \/>\nAnd that lesson lies to us<br \/>\ntoday. <\/p>\n<p>482<br \/>\n00:28:42,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:44,440<br \/>\nSo let&#8217;s keep going back to<br \/>\nGenesis. <\/p>\n<p>483<br \/>\n00:28:44,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:47,640<br \/>\nBehold, I even I do bring a<br \/>\nflood of waters upon the earth <\/p>\n<p>484<br \/>\n00:28:47,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:50,240<br \/>\nto destroy all flesh, wherein<br \/>\nthere is breath of life from <\/p>\n<p>485<br \/>\n00:28:50,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:53,160<br \/>\nunder the heaven, and everything<br \/>\nthat in the earth shall die. <\/p>\n<p>486<br \/>\n00:28:53,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:56,680<br \/>\nSo water from the sky is what<br \/>\nhe&#8217;s being told is going to <\/p>\n<p>487<br \/>\n00:28:56,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:58,400<br \/>\nhappen.<br \/>\nAnd you and I go, hey, it&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>488<br \/>\n00:28:58,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:01,280<br \/>\nsupposed to rain today, but is<br \/>\nanybody here really? <\/p>\n<p>489<br \/>\n00:29:01,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:02,800<br \/>\nNervous that we&#8217;re all going to<br \/>\ndie today. <\/p>\n<p>490<br \/>\n00:29:04,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:06,720<br \/>\nI mean, it might mess up the<br \/>\nafternoon plans, I recognize <\/p>\n<p>491<br \/>\n00:29:06,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:08,440<br \/>\nthat.<br \/>\nBut at the end of the day, we&#8217;re<\/p>\n<p>492<br \/>\n00:29:08,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:09,480<br \/>\nnot in peril.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re. <\/p>\n<p>493<br \/>\n00:29:10,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:13,240<br \/>\nWater&#8217;s coming.<br \/>\nWe don&#8217;t have that fear because <\/p>\n<p>494<br \/>\n00:29:13,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:17,120<br \/>\nwater from the sky is normal to<br \/>\nus, but it was not normal to <\/p>\n<p>495<br \/>\n00:29:17,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:19,280<br \/>\nthem.<br \/>\nNot yet. <\/p>\n<p>496<br \/>\n00:29:19,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:24,960<br \/>\nRain was new, and that changes<br \/>\nthe dimension to the story. <\/p>\n<p>497<br \/>\n00:29:24,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:30,280<br \/>\nGo back to Genesis chapter 2.<br \/>\nIn Genesis chapter 2 we have <\/p>\n<p>498<br \/>\n00:29:32,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:35,600<br \/>\nevery plant of the field.<br \/>\nVerse 5 before it was in the <\/p>\n<p>499<br \/>\n00:29:35,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:38,600<br \/>\nearth, every herb in the field.<br \/>\nBefore it grew, the Lord God had<\/p>\n<p>500<br \/>\n00:29:38,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:41,680<br \/>\nnot caused it to rain upon the<br \/>\nearth, and there was not a man <\/p>\n<p>501<br \/>\n00:29:41,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:44,320<br \/>\nto till the ground, but there<br \/>\nwent out a midst from the earth,<\/p>\n<p>502<br \/>\n00:29:44,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:46,920<br \/>\nand the and watered the whole<br \/>\nface of the ground. <\/p>\n<p>503<br \/>\n00:29:47,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:50,080<br \/>\nDoes anyone read that and think<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s God&#8217;s way of telling us a<\/p>\n<p>504<br \/>\n00:29:50,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:53,200<br \/>\nweather report on some unknown<br \/>\nday in the Genesis creation <\/p>\n<p>505<br \/>\n00:29:53,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:55,080<br \/>\naccount?<br \/>\nThe. <\/p>\n<p>506<br \/>\n00:29:55,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:59,800<br \/>\nReason that verse is there is to<br \/>\nadd emphasis to the story of <\/p>\n<p>507<br \/>\n00:29:59,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:05,000<br \/>\nNoah at this point.<br \/>\nThe ground was being taken care <\/p>\n<p>508<br \/>\n00:30:05,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:07,360<br \/>\nof by a midst provided by our<br \/>\nHeavenly Father. <\/p>\n<p>509<br \/>\n00:30:08,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:11,280<br \/>\nIt was not being taken care of<br \/>\nby water falling from the sky. <\/p>\n<p>510<br \/>\n00:30:11,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:16,720<br \/>\nThe first actual occurrence of<br \/>\nrain on the planet is actually <\/p>\n<p>511<br \/>\n00:30:16,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:19,600<br \/>\nthe story of the flood, and that<br \/>\nchanges this dynamic a lot. <\/p>\n<p>512<br \/>\n00:30:19,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:23,160<br \/>\nSee, that&#8217;s why when the rainbow<br \/>\nis given as a token, it&#8217;s so <\/p>\n<p>513<br \/>\n00:30:23,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:25,520<br \/>\nwhen it rains again, you&#8217;re<br \/>\nlike, we didn&#8217;t know what to do.<\/p>\n<p>514<br \/>\n00:30:25,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:26,920<br \/>\nWe didn&#8217;t have another boat<br \/>\nready. <\/p>\n<p>515<br \/>\n00:30:27,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:29,520<br \/>\nNo, it&#8217;s going to be normal<br \/>\nafter this. <\/p>\n<p>516<br \/>\n00:30:29,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:32,280<br \/>\nAnd suddenly, if you start<br \/>\nthinking about just going with <\/p>\n<p>517<br \/>\n00:30:32,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:33,520<br \/>\nthe scientist.<br \/>\nFor a minute. <\/p>\n<p>518<br \/>\n00:30:33,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:37,640<br \/>\nHere, the age of everybody gets<br \/>\na lot smaller too, doesn&#8217;t it? <\/p>\n<p>519<br \/>\n00:30:38,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:41,880<br \/>\nOh, you mean the cloud cover is<br \/>\ncoming and going and not a <\/p>\n<p>520<br \/>\n00:30:41,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:44,480<br \/>\nconstant protection of the<br \/>\nradiation from the sun? <\/p>\n<p>521<br \/>\n00:30:44,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:45,840<br \/>\nThat couldn&#8217;t have anything to<br \/>\ndo with it? <\/p>\n<p>522<br \/>\n00:30:45,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:49,400<br \/>\nI&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s coincidence, but<br \/>\nthe point here is that now we&#8217;re<\/p>\n<p>523<br \/>\n00:30:49,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:51,560<br \/>\nbeing told water is going to<br \/>\ncome from the sky. <\/p>\n<p>524<br \/>\n00:30:51,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:53,920<br \/>\nAnd when it does, you&#8217;ve got to<br \/>\nbe ready. <\/p>\n<p>525<br \/>\n00:30:54,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:57,280<br \/>\nAnd in fact, if you want to<br \/>\nreinforce that Hebrews 11 verse <\/p>\n<p>526<br \/>\n00:30:57,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:59,360<br \/>\n7, which we&#8217;ve already looked at<br \/>\nhalf a dozen times, don&#8217;t worry,<\/p>\n<p>527<br \/>\n00:30:59,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:02,560<br \/>\nwe&#8217;ll do it 5 or 6 more.<br \/>\nIt says he&#8217;s warned of God, of <\/p>\n<p>528<br \/>\n00:31:02,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:10,560<br \/>\nsomething not seen as yet.<br \/>\nHe is about to be told this is <\/p>\n<p>529<br \/>\n00:31:10,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:15,120<br \/>\nnew, Get ready.<br \/>\nSo to put this in perspective, I<\/p>\n<p>530<br \/>\n00:31:15,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:19,920<br \/>\nwant you and I to just a moment<br \/>\nthink of what would happen if an<\/p>\n<p>531<br \/>\n00:31:19,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:22,040<br \/>\nAngel came and talked to you<br \/>\ntonight. <\/p>\n<p>532<br \/>\n00:31:22,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:24,440<br \/>\nI&#8217;m not suggesting this Will.<br \/>\nI just want you to imagine it <\/p>\n<p>533<br \/>\n00:31:24,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:29,360<br \/>\nand play along and said, OK, you<br \/>\nguys are hanging out in <\/p>\n<p>534<br \/>\n00:31:29,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:33,360<br \/>\nPennsylvania.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a giant volcano you&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>535<br \/>\n00:31:33,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:36,000<br \/>\nnot aware of.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s about a mile outside of <\/p>\n<p>536<br \/>\n00:31:36,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:39,040<br \/>\nShippensburg.<br \/>\nWhat we&#8217;d like you to do. <\/p>\n<p>537<br \/>\n00:31:40,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:43,960<br \/>\nIs build a giant bomb shelter<br \/>\nconcrete and steel. <\/p>\n<p>538<br \/>\n00:31:44,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:46,640<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ll give you a couple weeks to<br \/>\ndo it because there&#8217;s more than <\/p>\n<p>539<br \/>\n00:31:46,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:50,400<br \/>\n8 of you and.<br \/>\nYou need to tell everyone why <\/p>\n<p>540<br \/>\n00:31:50,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:52,720<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re building it so that you<br \/>\ncan be preserved, because when <\/p>\n<p>541<br \/>\n00:31:52,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:55,720<br \/>\nthe lava flows, it&#8217;s going to<br \/>\nkill everything that&#8217;s not in <\/p>\n<p>542<br \/>\n00:31:55,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:57,600<br \/>\nyour bomb shelter.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll give you the directions. <\/p>\n<p>543<br \/>\n00:31:57,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:58,920<br \/>\nI&#8217;m not going to set you up for<br \/>\nfailure. <\/p>\n<p>544<br \/>\n00:31:59,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:02,000<br \/>\nAnd then, by the way, just<br \/>\nexplain to everybody why you&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>545<br \/>\n00:32:02,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:05,000<br \/>\ndoing this.<br \/>\nWould you not look and feel <\/p>\n<p>546<br \/>\n00:32:05,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:07,920<br \/>\ncrazy?<br \/>\nYou. <\/p>\n<p>547<br \/>\n00:32:07,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:09,520<br \/>\nIf you wouldn&#8217;t, then you&#8217;re<br \/>\nmuch better than me. <\/p>\n<p>548<br \/>\n00:32:09,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:11,480<br \/>\nI&#8217;d feel like a nut and you<br \/>\nwould look like 1. <\/p>\n<p>549<br \/>\n00:32:11,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:13,280<br \/>\nBy the way, even if you didn&#8217;t<br \/>\nfeel it, you&#8217;d look nuts. <\/p>\n<p>550<br \/>\n00:32:13,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:16,120<br \/>\nHey, the volcano in Pennsylvania<br \/>\nis going to erupt. <\/p>\n<p>551<br \/>\n00:32:17,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:19,080<br \/>\nOh yeah, we&#8217;re all nervous now,<br \/>\naren&#8217;t we? <\/p>\n<p>552<br \/>\n00:32:19,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:21,640<br \/>\nWe need, we need to go.<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s move the Bible school. <\/p>\n<p>553<br \/>\n00:32:21,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:23,400<br \/>\nNo, we&#8217;re not worried.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re not afraid. <\/p>\n<p>554<br \/>\n00:32:23,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:26,400<br \/>\nBut that would be new.<br \/>\nAnd if you were told something <\/p>\n<p>555<br \/>\n00:32:26,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:28,440<br \/>\nthat was new and you had<br \/>\nexclusive information and <\/p>\n<p>556<br \/>\n00:32:28,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:30,760<br \/>\neverybody else didn&#8217;t know, they<br \/>\nwould just think you were. <\/p>\n<p>557<br \/>\n00:32:30,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:33,400<br \/>\nCrazy.<br \/>\nAnd now you can understand how <\/p>\n<p>558<br \/>\n00:32:33,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:36,320<br \/>\nNoah and Misses Noah would have<br \/>\nfelt when they said, well, we <\/p>\n<p>559<br \/>\n00:32:36,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:37,640<br \/>\nneed a couple extra ship<br \/>\nbuilders. <\/p>\n<p>560<br \/>\n00:32:37,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:40,200<br \/>\nWe can&#8217;t can&#8217;t get anybody else<br \/>\non this planet to help us. <\/p>\n<p>561<br \/>\n00:32:40,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:46,680<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s make a few Behold, I even<br \/>\nI do bring a flood of waters to <\/p>\n<p>562<br \/>\n00:32:46,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:50,200<br \/>\ndestroy all flesh, wherein there<br \/>\nis the breath of life from under<\/p>\n<p>563<br \/>\n00:32:50,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:52,640<br \/>\nthe heaven, and everything that<br \/>\nis in the earth shall die so <\/p>\n<p>564<br \/>\n00:32:52,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:54,040<br \/>\nthe.<br \/>\nSpecial note at the end of this <\/p>\n<p>565<br \/>\n00:32:54,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:57,480<br \/>\nverse, everything that is in the<br \/>\nearth shall die is letting us <\/p>\n<p>566<br \/>\n00:32:57,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:59,520<br \/>\nknow the fish are excluded from<br \/>\nthis. <\/p>\n<p>567<br \/>\n00:32:59,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:00,840<br \/>\nAnd that&#8217;s where we have to be<br \/>\ncareful. <\/p>\n<p>568<br \/>\n00:33:00,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:02,800<br \/>\nLet the Bible tell us what it&#8217;s<br \/>\nsaying. <\/p>\n<p>569<br \/>\n00:33:02,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:06,280<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s not try to pin God into a<br \/>\ncorner so small that we can <\/p>\n<p>570<br \/>\n00:33:06,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:08,640<br \/>\nexplain it.<br \/>\nSo He&#8217;s given us the detail. <\/p>\n<p>571<br \/>\n00:33:08,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:12,040<br \/>\nThe focus is not the animals.<br \/>\nSo the fish, they&#8217;re going to be<\/p>\n<p>572<br \/>\n00:33:12,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:13,760<br \/>\nfine.<br \/>\nTheir little apartment&#8217;s going <\/p>\n<p>573<br \/>\n00:33:13,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:18,400<br \/>\nto turn into a mansion.<br \/>\nLots more water to work with. <\/p>\n<p>574<br \/>\n00:33:19,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:23,720<br \/>\nSo it&#8217;s an interesting thought<br \/>\nthat the only time this word in <\/p>\n<p>575<br \/>\n00:33:23,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:25,720<br \/>\nthe Hebrew translated flood is<br \/>\nused. <\/p>\n<p>576<br \/>\n00:33:25,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:30,920<br \/>\nOutside of Genesis 6 through 11<br \/>\nis actually Psalm 29 verse 10. <\/p>\n<p>577<br \/>\n00:33:31,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:34,560<br \/>\nThe Lord sitteth upon the flood.<br \/>\nYeah, the Lord Sitteth King. <\/p>\n<p>578<br \/>\n00:33:34,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:37,400<br \/>\nForever the Lord will give<br \/>\nstrength unto His people, and <\/p>\n<p>579<br \/>\n00:33:37,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:39,280<br \/>\nthe Lord will bless His people<br \/>\nwith peace. <\/p>\n<p>580<br \/>\n00:33:40,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:44,120<br \/>\nSo the blessing of peace comes<br \/>\nto those that choose God&#8217;s way. <\/p>\n<p>581<br \/>\n00:33:44,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:48,200<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s a grand and direct contrast<br \/>\nto the way of the flesh and the <\/p>\n<p>582<br \/>\n00:33:48,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:50,680<br \/>\nturmoil and destruction that<br \/>\ncomes when we choose our own <\/p>\n<p>583<br \/>\n00:33:50,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:54,000<br \/>\nway.<br \/>\nWith thee I will establish my <\/p>\n<p>584<br \/>\n00:33:54,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:55,840<br \/>\ncovenant.<br \/>\nThou shalt come into the ark, <\/p>\n<p>585<br \/>\n00:33:55,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:58,160<br \/>\nthou and thy sons, and thy wife<br \/>\nand thy sons wives with thee. <\/p>\n<p>586<br \/>\n00:33:58,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:59,560<br \/>\nSo the.<br \/>\nFirst time the word covenant is <\/p>\n<p>587<br \/>\n00:33:59,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:03,760<br \/>\nused is right here.<br \/>\nRemember numbers 14 and 21? <\/p>\n<p>588<br \/>\n00:34:03,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:05,520<br \/>\nGod&#8217;s purpose is to fill the<br \/>\nearth with His glory. <\/p>\n<p>589<br \/>\n00:34:05,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:09,440<br \/>\nThis is the reset button He is<br \/>\nhitting right now, but his goal <\/p>\n<p>590<br \/>\n00:34:09,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:11,920<br \/>\ndid not change.<br \/>\nHe is still going to fill the <\/p>\n<p>591<br \/>\n00:34:11,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:15,280<br \/>\nearth of His glory, and he&#8217;s<br \/>\ninvited this small ecclesia to <\/p>\n<p>592<br \/>\n00:34:15,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:18,840<br \/>\nbe a part of the rebuild effort.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;ll be more numerology in <\/p>\n<p>593<br \/>\n00:34:18,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:21,040<br \/>\nthe next class, maybe so much<br \/>\nthat you won&#8217;t want to hear it <\/p>\n<p>594<br \/>\n00:34:21,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:22,960<br \/>\nby the end of the next class,<br \/>\nbut we&#8217;re going to hold the <\/p>\n<p>595<br \/>\n00:34:22,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:25,000<br \/>\nnumber 7, which, by the way, the<br \/>\nnext, the next. <\/p>\n<p>596<br \/>\n00:34:25,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:28,040<br \/>\nClass Genesis Chapter 7 is<br \/>\ncalled Sevens, so brace <\/p>\n<p>597<br \/>\n00:34:28,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:31,960<br \/>\nyourself.<br \/>\nJust like Christ, Noah had to <\/p>\n<p>598<br \/>\n00:34:31,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:34,480<br \/>\nsave himself in order to save<br \/>\nothers. <\/p>\n<p>599<br \/>\n00:34:35,239 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:39,920<br \/>\nJesus had to lay down his life<br \/>\nto give you and I hope if he had<\/p>\n<p>600<br \/>\n00:34:39,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:42,920<br \/>\ndecided at Gethsemane, I&#8217;m out.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s not for me. <\/p>\n<p>601<br \/>\n00:34:43,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:46,080<br \/>\nHe could not be the.<br \/>\nOffering for our sin, so he had <\/p>\n<p>602<br \/>\n00:34:46,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:48,199<br \/>\nto save.<br \/>\nHimself before he could save <\/p>\n<p>603<br \/>\n00:34:48,199 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:49,800<br \/>\nothers.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a representative example<\/p>\n<p>604<br \/>\n00:34:49,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:51,440<br \/>\nfor this.<br \/>\nHow many of you came in on an <\/p>\n<p>605<br \/>\n00:34:51,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:55,000<br \/>\nairplane to get to this school?<br \/>\nSo there&#8217;s a few of us. <\/p>\n<p>606<br \/>\n00:34:55,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:57,280<br \/>\nAnd you remember the<br \/>\nannouncement that says, you <\/p>\n<p>607<br \/>\n00:34:57,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:00,240<br \/>\nknow, if you&#8217;re travelling with<br \/>\nchildren and the masks fall <\/p>\n<p>608<br \/>\n00:35:00,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:04,160<br \/>\ndown, put the mask on yourself<br \/>\nbefore you put it on your child.<\/p>\n<p>609<br \/>\n00:35:04,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:07,160<br \/>\nAnd if you&#8217;re traveling with two<br \/>\nchildren, pick the one you like <\/p>\n<p>610<br \/>\n00:35:07,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:09,680<br \/>\nthe most.<br \/>\nYou remember that one OK. <\/p>\n<p>611<br \/>\n00:35:09,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:15,040<br \/>\nSo the the point is, if our<br \/>\nnatural inclination is no air, I<\/p>\n<p>612<br \/>\n00:35:15,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:17,720<br \/>\nneed to get air to my kid.<br \/>\nBut if you have no air, you <\/p>\n<p>613<br \/>\n00:35:17,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:20,400<br \/>\ncan&#8217;t help your kid get your<br \/>\nair. <\/p>\n<p>614<br \/>\n00:35:20,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:23,560<br \/>\nHelp your kid get their air.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s a better plan than they <\/p>\n<p>615<br \/>\n00:35:23,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:25,080<br \/>\nget air and then they watch you<br \/>\nsuffocate. <\/p>\n<p>616<br \/>\n00:35:25,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:29,800<br \/>\nSo it makes sense.<br \/>\nSo the concept, save yourself <\/p>\n<p>617<br \/>\n00:35:30,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:32,360<br \/>\nbefore you save others.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s not selfish. <\/p>\n<p>618<br \/>\n00:35:33,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:34,760<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s the same concet of<br \/>\necclesial life. <\/p>\n<p>619<br \/>\n00:35:34,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:38,000<br \/>\nIf all I&#8217;m trying to do is fix<br \/>\nyou and take no regard for <\/p>\n<p>620<br \/>\n00:35:38,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:42,000<br \/>\nfixing me, I&#8217;m not helping you.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m not helping anyone. <\/p>\n<p>621<br \/>\n00:35:42,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:47,160<br \/>\nBut if I can focus on fixing my<br \/>\nlife and then help hopefully be <\/p>\n<p>622<br \/>\n00:35:47,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:49,840<br \/>\nan example in your life.<br \/>\nNow we&#8217;re working together and <\/p>\n<p>623<br \/>\n00:35:49,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:53,080<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s the ecclesial family.<br \/>\nSo a focus has to 1st put in <\/p>\n<p>624<br \/>\n00:35:53,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:55,160<br \/>\norder the things of God in my<br \/>\nlife and then. <\/p>\n<p>625<br \/>\n00:35:55,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:58,840<br \/>\nExport it the key ingredients<br \/>\nfor all of us to save our family<\/p>\n<p>626<br \/>\n00:35:58,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:01,480<br \/>\nin The Dark World.<br \/>\nIs to personally dedicate our <\/p>\n<p>627<br \/>\n00:36:01,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:06,400<br \/>\nlives to the service of and<br \/>\nsurrender to our Almighty Father<\/p>\n<p>628<br \/>\n00:36:06,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:09,840<br \/>\nin such a way that our even our<br \/>\nclosest contacts see. <\/p>\n<p>629<br \/>\n00:36:10,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:14,000<br \/>\nUs as a blessing, and we think<br \/>\nof this word murmuring. <\/p>\n<p>630<br \/>\n00:36:14,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:17,640<br \/>\nMurmuring is something that&#8217;s<br \/>\nvery easy for human beings to <\/p>\n<p>631<br \/>\n00:36:17,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:18,960<br \/>\ndo.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re all designed with it. <\/p>\n<p>632<br \/>\n00:36:18,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:22,080<br \/>\nIn fact, in the wilderness,<br \/>\necclesia, in the wilderness, <\/p>\n<p>633<br \/>\n00:36:22,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:25,200<br \/>\nthere are two words used<br \/>\ninterchangeably to describe <\/p>\n<p>634<br \/>\n00:36:26,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:27,840<br \/>\nmurmuring.<br \/>\nIn fact, it&#8217;s all translated. <\/p>\n<p>635<br \/>\n00:36:27,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:29,040<br \/>\nMurmuring.<br \/>\nBut there are two different <\/p>\n<p>636<br \/>\n00:36:29,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:30,840<br \/>\nwords.<br \/>\nOne of them, well, that means <\/p>\n<p>637<br \/>\n00:36:30,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:32,280<br \/>\nmurmuring or complaining.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s easy. <\/p>\n<p>638<br \/>\n00:36:33,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:36,720<br \/>\nThe other one.<br \/>\nUp all night. <\/p>\n<p>639<br \/>\n00:36:39,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:41,920<br \/>\nSo the ecclesia was up all night<br \/>\ncomplaining about who? <\/p>\n<p>640<br \/>\n00:36:42,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:46,280<br \/>\nGod and his provisions.<br \/>\nThe ecclesial leadership, the <\/p>\n<p>641<br \/>\n00:36:46,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:48,560<br \/>\nlack of provisions.<br \/>\nLet. <\/p>\n<p>642<br \/>\n00:36:49,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:50,600<br \/>\nMe think about this for a<br \/>\nsecond. <\/p>\n<p>643<br \/>\n00:36:50,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:53,520<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not really going the way it<br \/>\nused to be better my way. <\/p>\n<p>644<br \/>\n00:36:53,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:56,280<br \/>\nWe used to have a better option.<br \/>\nAnd I&#8217;m sure none of that has <\/p>\n<p>645<br \/>\n00:36:56,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:58,200<br \/>\never happened at your dinner<br \/>\ntable, has it? <\/p>\n<p>646<br \/>\n00:36:58,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:01,120<br \/>\nIf we ever had a conversation<br \/>\naround the dinner table and we <\/p>\n<p>647<br \/>\n00:37:01,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:04,520<br \/>\nstart talking about what brother<br \/>\nor sister so and so said or did <\/p>\n<p>648<br \/>\n00:37:05,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:08,920<br \/>\nor you know what the the person<br \/>\nin the ecclesia who said <\/p>\n<p>649<br \/>\n00:37:08,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:10,560<br \/>\nsomething that hurt your<br \/>\nfeelings or did something and <\/p>\n<p>650<br \/>\n00:37:10,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:14,400<br \/>\nyou can&#8217;t believe it.<br \/>\nNow, if you&#8217;re going to have <\/p>\n<p>651<br \/>\n00:37:14,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:16,960<br \/>\nthese conversations at home in<br \/>\nfront of your children, is it a <\/p>\n<p>652<br \/>\n00:37:16,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:18,320<br \/>\nsurprise?<br \/>\nOur children grow up and go. <\/p>\n<p>653<br \/>\n00:37:18,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:19,840<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t know that I really want<br \/>\nto be a part of that mess. <\/p>\n<p>654<br \/>\n00:37:19,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:23,440<br \/>\nThey don&#8217;t even like each other.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s the lesson of the <\/p>\n<p>655<br \/>\n00:37:23,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:28,080<br \/>\necclesia in the wilderness.<br \/>\nSo here who knows the mistakes <\/p>\n<p>656<br \/>\n00:37:28,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:30,120<br \/>\nthat Noah and misses Noah made<br \/>\nwith their. <\/p>\n<p>657<br \/>\n00:37:30,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:34,000<br \/>\nOther possible children, but not<br \/>\nwith these. <\/p>\n<p>658<br \/>\n00:37:34,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:36,880<br \/>\nThey had an opportunity to focus<br \/>\non getting it right. <\/p>\n<p>659<br \/>\n00:37:38,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:40,680<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s kind of sombre when you<br \/>\nthink of it that way, doesn&#8217;t <\/p>\n<p>660<br \/>\n00:37:40,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:43,520<br \/>\nit?<br \/>\nOf every living thing, of all <\/p>\n<p>661<br \/>\n00:37:43,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:46,360<br \/>\nflesh, 2 Of every sort thou<br \/>\nshalt bring into the ark, and <\/p>\n<p>662<br \/>\n00:37:46,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:49,840<br \/>\nkeep them alive with thee they<br \/>\nshall be male and female. <\/p>\n<p>663<br \/>\n00:37:49,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:52,280<br \/>\nAnd I love this picture because<br \/>\nyou got more than two sheep. <\/p>\n<p>664<br \/>\n00:37:52,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:56,880<br \/>\nAt the bottom.<br \/>\nVerse 20 of fowls after their <\/p>\n<p>665<br \/>\n00:37:56,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:59,720<br \/>\nkind, cattle after their kind,<br \/>\ncreeping thing after their kind.<\/p>\n<p>666<br \/>\n00:37:59,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:01,240<br \/>\nEvery source will come and keep<br \/>\nthem alive. <\/p>\n<p>667<br \/>\n00:38:01,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:07,000<br \/>\nThis is an important detail.<br \/>\nNoah is to receive, not collect.<\/p>\n<p>668<br \/>\n00:38:08,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:11,160<br \/>\nSee, it&#8217;s not up to you or I to<br \/>\ndecide who deserves to be called<\/p>\n<p>669<br \/>\n00:38:11,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:14,600<br \/>\nout of the waters.<br \/>\nOur God does the calling. <\/p>\n<p>670<br \/>\n00:38:15,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:18,760<br \/>\nBut we have to be ready and<br \/>\nprepared to receive. <\/p>\n<p>671<br \/>\n00:38:18,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:22,320<br \/>\nThem through the one light in<br \/>\nGod&#8217;s door. <\/p>\n<p>672<br \/>\n00:38:23,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:27,200<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s the message, God.<br \/>\nIsn&#8217;t sending Noah to go out. <\/p>\n<p>673<br \/>\n00:38:27,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:29,680<br \/>\nHey, I&#8217;ve got a checklist of<br \/>\nspecies you need to find. <\/p>\n<p>674<br \/>\n00:38:29,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:31,040<br \/>\nSome of these you probably never<br \/>\neven see. <\/p>\n<p>675<br \/>\n00:38:31,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:33,160<br \/>\nDon&#8217;t worry about that.<br \/>\nYou get it ready. <\/p>\n<p>676<br \/>\n00:38:34,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:36,880<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll do the harvest.<br \/>\nI will glean. <\/p>\n<p>677<br \/>\n00:38:36,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:39,920<br \/>\nFrom the population, of course,<br \/>\nwe can&#8217;t help but see the <\/p>\n<p>678<br \/>\n00:38:39,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:43,240<br \/>\ncalling of the Gentiles out of<br \/>\nthe sea of darkness to be drawn <\/p>\n<p>679<br \/>\n00:38:43,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:45,040<br \/>\nto the saving wood in the<br \/>\ncovering of God. <\/p>\n<p>680<br \/>\n00:38:46,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:47,960<br \/>\nNotice there&#8217;s no mention of sea<br \/>\nlife. <\/p>\n<p>681<br \/>\n00:38:47,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:51,480<br \/>\nWe have the cattle creeping<br \/>\nthings, but there&#8217;s no aquarium <\/p>\n<p>682<br \/>\n00:38:51,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:52,760<br \/>\non the ark.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s unnecessary. <\/p>\n<p>683<br \/>\n00:38:52,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:55,720<br \/>\nGod&#8217;s got that covered.<br \/>\nThis is actually another <\/p>\n<p>684<br \/>\n00:38:55,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:58,800<br \/>\nreference to John.<br \/>\nJohn 6 verse 44. <\/p>\n<p>685<br \/>\n00:38:58,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:03,520<br \/>\nNo man can come to me except the<br \/>\nFather which hath sent me. <\/p>\n<p>686<br \/>\n00:39:03,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:07,480<br \/>\nDraw him and I will raise him up<br \/>\nin the last day. <\/p>\n<p>687<br \/>\n00:39:07,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:09,920<br \/>\nDirect reference to the work of<br \/>\nthe of Noah in the flood. <\/p>\n<p>688<br \/>\n00:39:10,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:12,800<br \/>\nYou mean lift him up off the<br \/>\nearth? <\/p>\n<p>689<br \/>\n00:39:12,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:15,040<br \/>\nSounds kind of like what happens<br \/>\nin the next chapter when they <\/p>\n<p>690<br \/>\n00:39:15,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:18,400<br \/>\nare elevated by water and<br \/>\npreserved to convert the world <\/p>\n<p>691<br \/>\n00:39:18,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:20,000<br \/>\nto righteousness.<br \/>\nI I&#8217;m sure that&#8217;s all <\/p>\n<p>692<br \/>\n00:39:20,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:22,480<br \/>\ncoincidental.<br \/>\nVerse 21. <\/p>\n<p>693<br \/>\n00:39:24,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:27,760<br \/>\nAnd take thou unto thee, all the<br \/>\nfood that is eaten, thou shalt <\/p>\n<p>694<br \/>\n00:39:27,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:29,760<br \/>\ngather it to thee.<br \/>\nIt shall be food for thee and <\/p>\n<p>695<br \/>\n00:39:29,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:31,840<br \/>\nfor them.<br \/>\nSo now he&#8217;s told to go prepare. <\/p>\n<p>696<br \/>\n00:39:31,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:34,960<br \/>\nNot just for your meal, for the<br \/>\nnext, you know, year or so. <\/p>\n<p>697<br \/>\n00:39:35,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:37,320<br \/>\nWe got some animals we&#8217;re going<br \/>\nto have to take care of. <\/p>\n<p>698<br \/>\n00:39:37,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:39,800<br \/>\nGod brings the animals.<br \/>\nNoah gets the food. <\/p>\n<p>699<br \/>\n00:39:39,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:42,560<br \/>\nIs that not a nice picture of<br \/>\nJesus feeding the nations <\/p>\n<p>700<br \/>\n00:39:42,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:45,800<br \/>\nbrought to him by God?<br \/>\nThe two miracles of the feeding <\/p>\n<p>701<br \/>\n00:39:46,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:49,160<br \/>\n4005 thousand.<br \/>\nOh, it&#8217;s amazing how all these <\/p>\n<p>702<br \/>\n00:39:49,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:52,920<br \/>\nthings come together, The early<br \/>\nparts of Genesis impacting so <\/p>\n<p>703<br \/>\n00:39:52,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:56,080<br \/>\nmuch of the work of our Lord.<br \/>\nNow here&#8217;s some food for <\/p>\n<p>704<br \/>\n00:39:56,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:59,720<br \/>\nthought, pun intended.<br \/>\nEither all of the animals are <\/p>\n<p>705<br \/>\n00:39:59,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:03,080<br \/>\ngoing to be vegetarian.<br \/>\nTemporarily, like an identic <\/p>\n<p>706<br \/>\n00:40:03,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:05,960<br \/>\nstate, because I I&#8217;m having<br \/>\ntrouble picturing, you know, the<\/p>\n<p>707<br \/>\n00:40:05,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:07,520<br \/>\nlion and the lamb hanging out<br \/>\ntogether. <\/p>\n<p>708<br \/>\n00:40:08,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:10,520<br \/>\nNot at least that.<br \/>\nUnless of course God is in <\/p>\n<p>709<br \/>\n00:40:10,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:13,560<br \/>\ncontrol and has made them all<br \/>\nhappy vegetarians, which that <\/p>\n<p>710<br \/>\n00:40:13,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:18,200<br \/>\nphrase sounds strange to me.<br \/>\nOr all the carnivores are just <\/p>\n<p>711<br \/>\n00:40:18,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:20,840<br \/>\ngoing to hibernate for a while,<br \/>\nwhich is also possible. <\/p>\n<p>712<br \/>\n00:40:21,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:23,840<br \/>\nAnd here&#8217;s the point.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re not told how God did it, <\/p>\n<p>713<br \/>\n00:40:24,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:28,120<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re just told that He did.<br \/>\nNow I gave you two options that <\/p>\n<p>714<br \/>\n00:40:28,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:30,520<br \/>\nwould work.<br \/>\nCould there be more? <\/p>\n<p>715<br \/>\n00:40:31,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:32,840<br \/>\nThere probably is.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s probably one I&#8217;ve never <\/p>\n<p>716<br \/>\n00:40:32,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:33,880<br \/>\neven thought of.<br \/>\nGod&#8217;s a Dennis. <\/p>\n<p>717<br \/>\n00:40:33,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:35,120<br \/>\nDon&#8217;t worry about this, I got<br \/>\nit. <\/p>\n<p>718<br \/>\n00:40:36,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:39,000<br \/>\nSee, without God in control,<br \/>\nthis is impossible. <\/p>\n<p>719<br \/>\n00:40:40,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:42,120<br \/>\nBut with God in.<br \/>\nControl nothing&#8217;s impossible. <\/p>\n<p>720<br \/>\n00:40:42,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:46,720<br \/>\nThe critical point was the<br \/>\nobject lesson that when we turn <\/p>\n<p>721<br \/>\n00:40:46,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:51,800<br \/>\nover our life to God and trust<br \/>\nHis wisdom, we stop leaning on <\/p>\n<p>722<br \/>\n00:40:51,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:54,240<br \/>\nour own thinking.<br \/>\nLike so many other things in <\/p>\n<p>723<br \/>\n00:40:54,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:57,240<br \/>\nlife, we need to focus on what<br \/>\nthe Bible says and not try to <\/p>\n<p>724<br \/>\n00:40:57,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:58,800<br \/>\nfill in the space with what it<br \/>\ndoes not. <\/p>\n<p>725<br \/>\n00:40:58,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:01,400<br \/>\nSo since you guys like<br \/>\ncontroversial things, here&#8217;s a <\/p>\n<p>726<br \/>\n00:41:01,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:04,080<br \/>\ngood one.<br \/>\nIt is perfectly fine to have an <\/p>\n<p>727<br \/>\n00:41:04,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:05,200<br \/>\nopinion.<br \/>\nJust don&#8217;t be. <\/p>\n<p>728<br \/>\n00:41:05,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:08,280<br \/>\nJust don&#8217;t be so bold as to<br \/>\nthink your opinion is the only <\/p>\n<p>729<br \/>\n00:41:08,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:11,280<br \/>\none reasonable that fits with a<br \/>\nthus say at the Lord. <\/p>\n<p>730<br \/>\n00:41:11,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:13,360<br \/>\nIf you have a thus say at the<br \/>\nLord, use it. <\/p>\n<p>731<br \/>\n00:41:13,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:15,080<br \/>\nYour opinion doesn&#8217;t matter.<br \/>\nNeither does mine. <\/p>\n<p>732<br \/>\n00:41:15,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:17,720<br \/>\nGod&#8217;s opinion wins.<br \/>\nBut if we&#8217;re not told, <\/p>\n<p>733<br \/>\n00:41:18,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:20,920<br \/>\nrationalizing your mind to make<br \/>\nsense, fair enough. <\/p>\n<p>734<br \/>\n00:41:20,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:23,760<br \/>\nBut don&#8217;t make it God&#8217;s word<br \/>\nwhen it&#8217;s not. <\/p>\n<p>735<br \/>\n00:41:23,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:28,400<br \/>\nAnd this is a great example of<br \/>\nthat, that we&#8217;ll talk a little <\/p>\n<p>736<br \/>\n00:41:28,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:31,080<br \/>\nbit more in Chapter 7.<br \/>\nBut whether the flood was <\/p>\n<p>737<br \/>\n00:41:31,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:35,880<br \/>\nworldwide or whether the flood<br \/>\nwas regional, here&#8217;s the great <\/p>\n<p>738<br \/>\n00:41:35,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:39,760<br \/>\npart.<br \/>\nIt doesn&#8217;t matter if all the <\/p>\n<p>739<br \/>\n00:41:39,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:41,520<br \/>\nhumans on the planet died.<br \/>\nGod is right. <\/p>\n<p>740<br \/>\n00:41:42,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:44,680<br \/>\nSo could he have flooded the<br \/>\nentire planet, which science <\/p>\n<p>741<br \/>\n00:41:44,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:47,280<br \/>\nsays is impossible?<br \/>\nSure, God can trump science. <\/p>\n<p>742<br \/>\n00:41:47,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:51,280<br \/>\nCould he have chosen just to<br \/>\nflood the Middle East where all <\/p>\n<p>743<br \/>\n00:41:51,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:53,080<br \/>\nthe humans were?<br \/>\nAnd maybe that explains why <\/p>\n<p>744<br \/>\n00:41:53,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:56,080<br \/>\nthere&#8217;s diversity as a species<br \/>\naround the planet could have <\/p>\n<p>745<br \/>\n00:41:56,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:57,920<br \/>\ndone that too.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a lot of things God <\/p>\n<p>746<br \/>\n00:41:57,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:59,520<br \/>\ncould have done.<br \/>\nThe animals weren&#8217;t the problem.<\/p>\n<p>747<br \/>\n00:42:00,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:03,320<br \/>\nSo we don&#8217;t have to argue with<br \/>\nthe science that suggests one, <\/p>\n<p>748<br \/>\n00:42:03,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:05,600<br \/>\nbecause you can make an argument<br \/>\nfor both scientifically, by the <\/p>\n<p>749<br \/>\n00:42:05,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:08,360<br \/>\nway, Now, neither one of them is<br \/>\ngreat, but they both exist. <\/p>\n<p>750<br \/>\n00:42:09,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:11,240<br \/>\nBut as long as I don&#8217;t put God<br \/>\nin a corner, I can understand. <\/p>\n<p>751<br \/>\n00:42:11,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:14,120<br \/>\nI can say, hey, all the humans<br \/>\ndied, God wins, and now it <\/p>\n<p>752<br \/>\n00:42:14,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:16,600<br \/>\ndoesn&#8217;t matter because in the<br \/>\nKingdom age, there&#8217;s probably an<\/p>\n<p>753<br \/>\n00:42:16,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:18,520<br \/>\nanswer to that.<br \/>\nI have no doubt that God&#8217;s going<\/p>\n<p>754<br \/>\n00:42:18,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:19,640<br \/>\nto say, hey, Dennis, here&#8217;s what<br \/>\nI did. <\/p>\n<p>755<br \/>\n00:42:20,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:22,680<br \/>\nOh, that&#8217;s kind of cool.<br \/>\nBut I never said God couldn&#8217;t do<\/p>\n<p>756<br \/>\n00:42:22,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:24,680<br \/>\nthis or God couldn&#8217;t do that.<br \/>\nGod could do anything. <\/p>\n<p>757<br \/>\n00:42:24,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:27,520<br \/>\nSo let&#8217;s not pin him in a corner<br \/>\nso small we can understand it. <\/p>\n<p>758<br \/>\n00:42:28,040 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:31,960<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ll get a very profound<br \/>\nexample of that tomorrow and so <\/p>\n<p>759<br \/>\n00:42:31,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:35,320<br \/>\nhere&#8217;s our title verse thus did<br \/>\nknow according to all, not most,<\/p>\n<p>760<br \/>\n00:42:35,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:38,520<br \/>\nnot some, not a few of the good<br \/>\nthings that he found all that <\/p>\n<p>761<br \/>\n00:42:38,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:40,360<br \/>\nGod commanded him.<br \/>\nSo he did. <\/p>\n<p>762<br \/>\n00:42:40,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:43,160<br \/>\nAnd so that&#8217;s the closing<br \/>\nstatement from warning to <\/p>\n<p>763<br \/>\n00:42:43,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:45,080<br \/>\npreparation.<br \/>\nGod gives him a warning. <\/p>\n<p>764<br \/>\n00:42:45,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:49,400<br \/>\nHe gives him instructions and<br \/>\nthey follow all that God had <\/p>\n<p>765<br \/>\n00:42:49,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:52,040<br \/>\ncommanded and therein lies the<br \/>\ninstruction to us. <\/p>\n<p>766<br \/>\n00:42:52,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:54,480<br \/>\nWe have a thus say at the Lord<br \/>\ndebate is over. <\/p>\n<p>767<br \/>\n00:42:54,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:56,840<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s what we do without a thus<br \/>\nsay at the Lord. <\/p>\n<p>768<br \/>\n00:42:56,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:58,240<br \/>\nWe work together to do what we<br \/>\nthink is. <\/p>\n<p>769<br \/>\n00:42:58,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:02,120<br \/>\nDecent in an order.<br \/>\nNow we mentioned earlier in this<\/p>\n<p>770<br \/>\n00:43:02,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:04,320<br \/>\nclass we would close with some<br \/>\ngenealogy because I saw <\/p>\n<p>771<br \/>\n00:43:04,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:06,560<br \/>\neverybody get excited when I<br \/>\nsaid Genesis chapter 5. <\/p>\n<p>772<br \/>\n00:43:07,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:09,760<br \/>\nSo we&#8217;re going to conclude our<br \/>\nthoughts this morning in Matthew<\/p>\n<p>773<br \/>\n00:43:09,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:14,560<br \/>\nchapter 1.<br \/>\nMatthew chapter one. <\/p>\n<p>774<br \/>\n00:43:14,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:18,120<br \/>\nThe first verse says the.<br \/>\nBook of the generation of Jesus <\/p>\n<p>775<br \/>\n00:43:18,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:20,720<br \/>\nChrist, the son of David, the<br \/>\nson of Abraham. <\/p>\n<p>776<br \/>\n00:43:21,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:25,080<br \/>\nThis is the opening verse of the<br \/>\nNew Testament, so there&#8217;s some <\/p>\n<p>777<br \/>\n00:43:25,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:27,000<br \/>\ndetails that I think are highly<br \/>\nrelevant. <\/p>\n<p>778<br \/>\n00:43:27,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:29,240<br \/>\nRemember, we keep talking about<br \/>\nthe influence of the early parts<\/p>\n<p>779<br \/>\n00:43:29,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:31,240<br \/>\nof Genesis.<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s make sure we see them <\/p>\n<p>780<br \/>\n00:43:31,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:36,840<br \/>\nhere.<br \/>\nThis phrase, the generations, <\/p>\n<p>781<br \/>\n00:43:36,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:43,440<br \/>\nappears 14 times in the Bible.<br \/>\nAnother one of our sevens for <\/p>\n<p>782<br \/>\n00:43:43,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:48,360<br \/>\nour class tomorrow, but.<br \/>\nOnly twice in the Bible do we <\/p>\n<p>783<br \/>\n00:43:48,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:51,960<br \/>\nhave a book of the generations.<br \/>\nOnly two of them are noted as a <\/p>\n<p>784<br \/>\n00:43:51,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:57,440<br \/>\nbook, the book of the<br \/>\ngenerations of Jesus Christ and <\/p>\n<p>785<br \/>\n00:43:57,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:01,400<br \/>\nGenesis chapter 5, the book of<br \/>\nthe generation of Adam, the book<\/p>\n<p>786<br \/>\n00:44:01,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:06,920<br \/>\nof death, the book of life.<br \/>\nWe already quoted this, but it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>787<br \/>\n00:44:06,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:09,320<br \/>\nprobably worth reading.<br \/>\nFirst Corinthians 1522. <\/p>\n<p>788<br \/>\n00:44:09,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:12,160<br \/>\nAs in Adam all die, so in Christ<br \/>\nshall all be made alive. <\/p>\n<p>789<br \/>\n00:44:12,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:17,640<br \/>\nAnd that section ends with<br \/>\nthings being put in subjection <\/p>\n<p>790<br \/>\n00:44:17,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:20,560<br \/>\nto the Son.<br \/>\nThat he would be subject to the <\/p>\n<p>791<br \/>\n00:44:20,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:23,280<br \/>\nFather, that God may be all and<br \/>\nin all. <\/p>\n<p>792<br \/>\n00:44:24,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:28,680<br \/>\nOr another way to say that that<br \/>\nwe might Tabernacle with the <\/p>\n<p>793<br \/>\n00:44:28,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:31,760<br \/>\nFather through the Son for<br \/>\neternity. <\/p>\n<p>794<br \/>\n00:44:32,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:35,680<br \/>\nIt ties directly to the subdue<br \/>\nand add dominion. <\/p>\n<p>795<br \/>\n00:44:35,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:37,920<br \/>\nI have dominion part.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m getting off topic, but we&#8217;ll<\/p>\n<p>796<br \/>\n00:44:37,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:40,120<br \/>\ncircle back there in a couple<br \/>\nevenings. <\/p>\n<p>797<br \/>\n00:44:41,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:47,320<br \/>\nNow, the Matthew 1 genealogy<br \/>\ndetails a line of Jesus in 42 <\/p>\n<p>798<br \/>\n00:44:47,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:51,040<br \/>\ngenerations, which is 14 * 3 if<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re keeping score. <\/p>\n<p>799<br \/>\n00:44:51,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:57,560<br \/>\nNow can we all agree that every<br \/>\ntime a baby is born, a woman&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>800<br \/>\n00:44:57,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:59,840<br \/>\ninvolved?<br \/>\nAnyone arguing my premise? <\/p>\n<p>801<br \/>\n00:45:01,960 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:04,680<br \/>\nOK, so we&#8217;re at least.<br \/>\nSome of you are arguing. <\/p>\n<p>802<br \/>\n00:45:04,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:08,840<br \/>\nI&#8217;m a little nervous but no OK.<br \/>\nAll right, so we got 42 babies <\/p>\n<p>803<br \/>\n00:45:08,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:10,440<br \/>\nborn.<br \/>\nThat means at least 42 women <\/p>\n<p>804<br \/>\n00:45:10,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:13,480<br \/>\nhere are now involved.<br \/>\nAnd we mentioned in genealogies <\/p>\n<p>805<br \/>\n00:45:13,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:16,120<br \/>\nthat the name of the woman is<br \/>\nembedded in the name of the <\/p>\n<p>806<br \/>\n00:45:16,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:19,240<br \/>\nhusband, calling their name<br \/>\nAdam. <\/p>\n<p>807<br \/>\n00:45:20,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:26,440<br \/>\nSo why then are 5 the number of<br \/>\ngrace women? <\/p>\n<p>808<br \/>\n00:45:27,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:31,320<br \/>\nCalled out by name in Matthew 1.<br \/>\nWhy? <\/p>\n<p>809<br \/>\n00:45:31,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:34,760<br \/>\nThat makes their name redundant.<br \/>\nIf their name is embedded in the<\/p>\n<p>810<br \/>\n00:45:34,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:38,560<br \/>\nname of their husband, why then<br \/>\nwe have five of them mentioned <\/p>\n<p>811<br \/>\n00:45:38,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:44,360<br \/>\ntwice called out by.<br \/>\nName the number of grace. <\/p>\n<p>812<br \/>\n00:45:45,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:48,560<br \/>\nNow, the clue to the Bible<br \/>\nstudent is anytime you have a <\/p>\n<p>813<br \/>\n00:45:48,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:51,760<br \/>\nseemingly insignificant detail,<br \/>\nthat is your clue that there&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>814<br \/>\n00:45:51,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:53,480<br \/>\nsomething significant there.<br \/>\nGet out your shovel. <\/p>\n<p>815<br \/>\n00:45:53,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:57,200<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s something cool to find.<br \/>\nAnd so we find a seemingly <\/p>\n<p>816<br \/>\n00:45:57,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:02,360<br \/>\ninsignificant detail and we say.<br \/>\nHmm, well let&#8217;s look at those 5.<\/p>\n<p>817<br \/>\n00:46:02,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:05,760<br \/>\nBecause see, if I was riding a<br \/>\ngenealogy of Jesus, I might <\/p>\n<p>818<br \/>\n00:46:05,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:10,240<br \/>\nthrow people like Sarah Model<br \/>\nmarriage, maybe Eve. <\/p>\n<p>819<br \/>\n00:46:10,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:13,160<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s where it all started,<br \/>\nLeah, one of my personal <\/p>\n<p>820<br \/>\n00:46:13,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:15,120<br \/>\nfavorites.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s a number we could go <\/p>\n<p>821<br \/>\n00:46:15,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:16,880<br \/>\nand.<br \/>\nHey, that&#8217;s a great 1, Dennis. <\/p>\n<p>822<br \/>\n00:46:16,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:20,080<br \/>\nGood job.<br \/>\nBut that&#8217;s not who God picks <\/p>\n<p>823<br \/>\n00:46:20,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:23,760<br \/>\nunder inspiration.<br \/>\nWe have 5 women, all of which <\/p>\n<p>824<br \/>\n00:46:23,760 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:26,840<br \/>\ncome from an obscure background.<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s look at them. <\/p>\n<p>825<br \/>\n00:46:27,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:32,480<br \/>\nMatthew chapter one, verse 3.<br \/>\nJudas begat Pheres and Zara of <\/p>\n<p>826<br \/>\n00:46:32,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:36,880<br \/>\nTamar.<br \/>\nSo Tamar, she played the harlot,<\/p>\n<p>827<br \/>\n00:46:38,160 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:41,000<br \/>\nbut she became a mother in<br \/>\nIsrael and she was declared <\/p>\n<p>828<br \/>\n00:46:41,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:42,440<br \/>\nrighteous.<br \/>\nIn the process. <\/p>\n<p>829<br \/>\n00:46:43,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:46,480<br \/>\nThen we get to verse 5.<br \/>\nSolomon begat Boaz of Rahab, and<\/p>\n<p>830<br \/>\n00:46:46,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:49,280<br \/>\nBoaz begat Obed of Ruth.<br \/>\nSo Rahab? <\/p>\n<p>831<br \/>\n00:46:50,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:51,600<br \/>\nOh, you mean the harlot of<br \/>\nJericho? <\/p>\n<p>832<br \/>\n00:46:51,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:53,440<br \/>\nHow do you like that?<br \/>\nEvery time we say Rahab, we <\/p>\n<p>833<br \/>\n00:46:53,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:46:56,480<br \/>\nalmost give it her last name.<br \/>\nRahab the Harlot of Jericho <\/p>\n<p>834<br \/>\n00:46:57,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:02,240<br \/>\nRahab was the harlot of Jericho,<br \/>\nbut she became. <\/p>\n<p>835<br \/>\n00:47:02,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:06,320<br \/>\nWhy a mother in Israel and she<br \/>\nraised a pillar in the truth for<\/p>\n<p>836<br \/>\n00:47:06,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:09,200<br \/>\none of two pillars in the temple<br \/>\nare named after her son Boaz. <\/p>\n<p>837<br \/>\n00:47:10,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:14,680<br \/>\nThen we have Ruth she who left<br \/>\nthat was born after the flesh <\/p>\n<p>838<br \/>\n00:47:14,680 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:17,480<br \/>\nbecause that&#8217;s what Moab means<br \/>\nborn after the flesh to be <\/p>\n<p>839<br \/>\n00:47:17,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:21,320<br \/>\nunited with the House of bread<br \/>\nand praise delivering probably <\/p>\n<p>840<br \/>\n00:47:21,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:24,320<br \/>\nthe most beautiful recorded<br \/>\nconfession of faith in <\/p>\n<p>841<br \/>\n00:47:24,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:27,240<br \/>\nScripture.<br \/>\nShe then becomes united to a. <\/p>\n<p>842<br \/>\n00:47:27,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:31,840<br \/>\nPillar in the temple and why she<br \/>\nbecomes a. <\/p>\n<p>843<br \/>\n00:47:32,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:37,280<br \/>\nMother in Israel do you see a<br \/>\ntrend here you get to verse 6 <\/p>\n<p>844<br \/>\n00:47:37,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:40,720<br \/>\nDavid the king begat Solomon of<br \/>\nhe of her that had been the wife<\/p>\n<p>845<br \/>\n00:47:40,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:44,400<br \/>\nof Uriah Bathsheba by name<br \/>\nwhich. <\/p>\n<p>846<br \/>\n00:47:44,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:46,920<br \/>\nWe won&#8217;t divert the class into<br \/>\nwhy is Uriah mentioned here? <\/p>\n<p>847<br \/>\n00:47:46,920 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:49,320<br \/>\nI think there&#8217;s a really cool<br \/>\nanswer to that, but I digress. <\/p>\n<p>848<br \/>\n00:47:49,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:56,080<br \/>\nFocus on Bathsheba, who was.<br \/>\nTaken in adultery but became the<\/p>\n<p>849<br \/>\n00:47:56,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:47:59,720<br \/>\nmother of a king.<br \/>\nShe raised the wisest man that <\/p>\n<p>850<br \/>\n00:47:59,720 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:01,840<br \/>\never lived, save our Lord Jesus<br \/>\nChrist. <\/p>\n<p>851<br \/>\n00:48:02,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:06,120<br \/>\nAnd in her husband David and her<br \/>\nson Solomon, we have wonderful <\/p>\n<p>852<br \/>\n00:48:06,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:09,360<br \/>\ntypes of Jesus Christ, the<br \/>\nbeloved and peaceable. <\/p>\n<p>853<br \/>\n00:48:10,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:14,600<br \/>\nOh, and how about the last?<br \/>\nOne Joseph brought up the story <\/p>\n<p>854<br \/>\n00:48:14,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:19,120<br \/>\nlast night.<br \/>\nJacob begat Joseph, the husband <\/p>\n<p>855<br \/>\n00:48:19,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:21,200<br \/>\nof Mary, of whom was born Jesus,<br \/>\nwhich is called Christ. <\/p>\n<p>856<br \/>\n00:48:21,480 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:26,400<br \/>\nAnd you and I read that, and we<br \/>\neasily accept the virgin birth. <\/p>\n<p>857<br \/>\n00:48:26,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:28,040<br \/>\nWe don&#8217;t challenge it.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re not questioning it. <\/p>\n<p>858<br \/>\n00:48:28,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:30,520<br \/>\nWe accept it.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s part of what we understand.<\/p>\n<p>859<br \/>\n00:48:31,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:34,800<br \/>\nBut if you pause for just a<br \/>\nmoment and behind this wall, <\/p>\n<p>860<br \/>\n00:48:34,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:39,440<br \/>\nyou&#8217;ve got about 10:00-ish<br \/>\nwomen, 1416 range. <\/p>\n<p>861<br \/>\n00:48:39,840 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:42,560<br \/>\nAnd imagine if one of them came<br \/>\nover, interrupted this class and<\/p>\n<p>862<br \/>\n00:48:42,560 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:45,400<br \/>\nsaid, Mom, dad, I didn&#8217;t do<br \/>\nanything wrong, but I&#8217;m <\/p>\n<p>863<br \/>\n00:48:45,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:46,760<br \/>\npregnant, God did.<br \/>\nIt. <\/p>\n<p>864<br \/>\n00:48:48,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:50,800<br \/>\nAnd we&#8217;re all oh, that&#8217;s<br \/>\nprobably exactly what happened. <\/p>\n<p>865<br \/>\n00:48:50,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:52,880<br \/>\nWe can.<br \/>\nNo, we would think she&#8217;s an <\/p>\n<p>866<br \/>\n00:48:52,880 &#8211;&gt; 00:48:56,400<br \/>\napparent fornicator, which is<br \/>\nexactly what everyone else would<\/p>\n<p>867<br \/>\n00:48:56,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:02,000<br \/>\nhave thought when Mary was<br \/>\nsomewhere between 12 and 16 is <\/p>\n<p>868<br \/>\n00:49:02,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:06,080<br \/>\nnow with child.<br \/>\nShe&#8217;s engaged too. <\/p>\n<p>869<br \/>\n00:49:06,080 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:07,720<br \/>\nOh, that even makes it more<br \/>\nheinous. <\/p>\n<p>870<br \/>\n00:49:10,240 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:16,360<br \/>\nBut yet she was handpicked by<br \/>\nGod as an early teenager to <\/p>\n<p>871<br \/>\n00:49:16,360 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:21,520<br \/>\nraise His son to perfection.<br \/>\nThe clear message in this <\/p>\n<p>872<br \/>\n00:49:21,520 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:24,280<br \/>\ngenealogy?<br \/>\nIt is not where you have come <\/p>\n<p>873<br \/>\n00:49:24,280 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:26,960<br \/>\nfrom.<br \/>\nIt is not who you are. <\/p>\n<p>874<br \/>\n00:49:27,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:31,120<br \/>\nIt is not what you have done,<br \/>\nit&#8217;s not your background, your <\/p>\n<p>875<br \/>\n00:49:31,120 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:35,000<br \/>\ngenealogy, your heritage, none<br \/>\nof that actually matters. <\/p>\n<p>876<br \/>\n00:49:35,320 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:38,360<br \/>\nIt is where you are going that<br \/>\nmatters. <\/p>\n<p>877<br \/>\n00:49:38,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:43,440<br \/>\nEach one of these has an obscure<br \/>\nbackground, but they were all <\/p>\n<p>878<br \/>\n00:49:43,440 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:45,800<br \/>\nunited in glory leading to our<br \/>\nLord. <\/p>\n<p>879<br \/>\n00:49:46,640 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:50,400<br \/>\nSo let us look to the great<br \/>\narchitect of our faith and be <\/p>\n<p>880<br \/>\n00:49:50,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:49:54,680<br \/>\nlike those before us to turn to<br \/>\nour God as our only hope and <\/p>\n<p>881<br \/>\n00:49:54,680 &#8211;&gt;
