Class 2 from this series was used in GCT Episode 398.<\/p>\n
2
\n00:00:05,160 –> 00:00:08,080
\nfrom Austin Leander, TX.
\nEcclesia. <\/p>\n
3
\n00:00:09,120 –> 00:00:12,680
\nThe theme of Brother Dennis’s
\nclasses this week is Noah, <\/p>\n
4
\n00:00:13,320 –> 00:00:16,079
\nSaving Your family in a Dark
\nWorld. <\/p>\n
5
\n00:00:17,040 –> 00:00:23,920
\nThis topic for today is Walked
\nwith God, Genesis 6 verses one <\/p>\n
6
\n00:00:23,920 –> 00:00:27,080
\nthrough 9.
\nLet us give our attention to our<\/p>\n
7
\n00:00:27,080 –> 00:00:31,560
\nbrother Dennis.
\nSo this morning we have quite an<\/p>\n
8
\n00:00:31,560 –> 00:00:34,800
\ninteresting topic the.
\nStakes are high, aren’t they? <\/p>\n
9
\n00:00:34,800 –> 00:00:37,880
\nWhen you when you put it in
\nperspective, saving your family <\/p>\n
10
\n00:00:37,880 –> 00:00:40,360
\nin a Dark World is something we
\ncan all relate to. <\/p>\n
11
\n00:00:41,200 –> 00:00:44,480
\nPositive.
\nAnd negative, it is nice to be <\/p>\n
12
\n00:00:44,480 –> 00:00:47,480
\nback in the saddle again.
\nI recognize God got mad at the <\/p>\n
13
\n00:00:47,480 –> 00:00:50,240
\nworld and sent us all to.
\nOur room for a couple years, but<\/p>\n
14
\n00:00:50,240 –> 00:00:53,480
\nthe opportunity to come back and
\nreflect on that experience does <\/p>\n
15
\n00:00:53,480 –> 00:00:56,240
\nexist.
\nIt’s a chance for us to reflect <\/p>\n
16
\n00:00:56,240 –> 00:00:59,480
\nnot only on our individual
\nresponse, our community <\/p>\n
17
\n00:00:59,480 –> 00:01:01,840
\nresponse, and where do we go
\nfrom here? <\/p>\n
18
\n00:01:03,240 –> 00:01:08,240
\nWhat is this world coming to?
\nWhat is the ecclesial world? <\/p>\n
19
\n00:01:08,240 –> 00:01:14,200
\nComing to what can I do about
\neither of those things and how <\/p>\n
20
\n00:01:14,200 –> 00:01:17,120
\ncan I protect and preserve my
\nfamily while we wait for the <\/p>\n
21
\n00:01:17,120 –> 00:01:20,640
\nreturn of our Lord?
\nThose are all profound questions<\/p>\n
22
\n00:01:20,640 –> 00:01:23,360
\nthat have crossed all of our
\nminds from time to time. <\/p>\n
23
\n00:01:23,960 –> 00:01:27,720
\nAnd as we look to a story that’s
\none of the oldest stories in <\/p>\n
24
\n00:01:27,720 –> 00:01:30,160
\nScripture, we’re going to see
\nthat not only are what we <\/p>\n
25
\n00:01:30,160 –> 00:01:33,880
\nexperiencing, this is not new.
\nIt’s not new to us, It’s not new<\/p>\n
26
\n00:01:33,880 –> 00:01:35,680
\nto the planet.
\nIt’s not new to our God. <\/p>\n
27
\n00:01:36,200 –> 00:01:41,760
\nBut he’s rather given us insight
\nto a family and ecclesial <\/p>\n
28
\n00:01:41,760 –> 00:01:47,080
\nsetting that our Lord Jesus
\ntells us was just like when he <\/p>\n
29
\n00:01:47,080 –> 00:01:50,000
\nis going to return.
\nSo that you and I can go back to<\/p>\n
30
\n00:01:50,000 –> 00:01:54,640
\nthe story in the Bible and see
\nthat we are not alone, whatever <\/p>\n
31
\n00:01:54,640 –> 00:01:58,560
\nit is we’re going through in a
\nWorld of Darkness with ecclesial<\/p>\n
32
\n00:01:58,560 –> 00:02:02,760
\nchallenges, this is not.
\nOur God’s first rodeo. <\/p>\n
33
\n00:02:04,200 –> 00:02:07,040
\nThat’s a Texas joke, and those
\nof those of you who didn’t get <\/p>\n
34
\n00:02:07,040 –> 00:02:09,039
\nit, I understand.
\nI’m not really a Texan either, <\/p>\n
35
\n00:02:09,039 –> 00:02:10,320
\nbut I just have to wear the
\nbadge. <\/p>\n
36
\n00:02:10,960 –> 00:02:13,200
\nSo thank you for joining me this
\nweek. <\/p>\n
37
\n00:02:13,200 –> 00:02:16,240
\nWe’re going to look at this
\nstory for some highly relevant <\/p>\n
38
\n00:02:16,240 –> 00:02:18,760
\nlessons today.
\nAnd I think from a very early <\/p>\n
39
\n00:02:18,760 –> 00:02:21,400
\npoint in this class you’ll see
\nthat it is. <\/p>\n
40
\n00:02:21,400 –> 00:02:25,960
\nNot only possible to gain value
\nfrom this very old story, but <\/p>\n
41
\n00:02:25,960 –> 00:02:28,160
\nit’s recommended by Jesus and
\nhis ministry. <\/p>\n
42
\n00:02:29,080 –> 00:02:31,280
\nYeah, the world we live in is
\nforever changed. <\/p>\n
43
\n00:02:31,840 –> 00:02:34,080
\nThe ecclesial family has forever
\nchanged. <\/p>\n
44
\n00:02:34,800 –> 00:02:37,760
\nSo I’m just going to say, they
\nsaid don’t be controversial. <\/p>\n
45
\n00:02:37,760 –> 00:02:40,040
\nI everything I say.
\nIs so sorry, I just might as <\/p>\n
46
\n00:02:40,040 –> 00:02:45,120
\nwell put it on record COVID.
\nNow let’s talk about Zoom for <\/p>\n
47
\n00:02:45,120 –> 00:02:46,800
\njust a minute.
\nZoom is great. <\/p>\n
48
\n00:02:47,160 –> 00:02:51,320
\nYou and I can get content.
\nFrom anything in the Bible <\/p>\n
49
\n00:02:51,600 –> 00:02:55,000
\nclasses around the world every
\nday and some of us have really <\/p>\n
50
\n00:02:55,000 –> 00:02:56,760
\nenjoyed that, right?
\nI can’t be the only one. <\/p>\n
51
\n00:02:57,320 –> 00:02:59,000
\nOK, thank you and I are loving
\nthis. <\/p>\n
52
\n00:02:59,160 –> 00:03:01,040
\nThis is the group participation
\npart. <\/p>\n
53
\n00:03:01,320 –> 00:03:02,920
\nYou guys have been had a chance
\nto do that, right? <\/p>\n
54
\n00:03:03,440 –> 00:03:07,520
\nBut but what Zoom cannot do is
\nreplace contact. <\/p>\n
55
\n00:03:08,120 –> 00:03:12,720
\nIt cannot replace fellowship.
\nYou and I have to see each other<\/p>\n
56
\n00:03:12,720 –> 00:03:14,800
\nto serve each other.
\nSo although there’s been some <\/p>\n
57
\n00:03:14,800 –> 00:03:17,920
\ngreat advantages, especially
\nthose that have mobility issues,<\/p>\n
58
\n00:03:17,920 –> 00:03:21,880
\nhealth issues that cannot come
\nout to meeting, this is a huge <\/p>\n
59
\n00:03:21,960 –> 00:03:24,400
\nupgrade from listening to a tape
\nor. <\/p>\n
60
\n00:03:24,400 –> 00:03:28,520
\nACD or whatever we do now.
\nIt’s a much better option than <\/p>\n
61
\n00:03:28,520 –> 00:03:31,240
\nthat, but it is not a
\nreplacement for memorial <\/p>\n
62
\n00:03:31,240 –> 00:03:33,920
\nservice.
\nYou do the best you can with <\/p>\n
63
\n00:03:33,920 –> 00:03:35,920
\nwhat you have.
\nWhen it was illegal for us to <\/p>\n
64
\n00:03:35,920 –> 00:03:39,920
\nmeet, but now there should be a
\nlonging to come back. <\/p>\n
65
\n00:03:39,920 –> 00:03:44,400
\nAnd I’m sure every ecclesia in
\nthe world has an issue with <\/p>\n
66
\n00:03:44,680 –> 00:03:47,680
\nmembers that may never come
\nback, that they have got <\/p>\n
67
\n00:03:47,680 –> 00:03:50,800
\ncomfortable on Zoom and it’s
\nbecome an adequate replacement <\/p>\n
68
\n00:03:50,800 –> 00:03:54,120
\nfor memorial service.
\nAnd that is scary for the <\/p>\n
69
\n00:03:54,120 –> 00:03:56,800
\nindividual, for the family and
\nfor the ecclesia. <\/p>\n
70
\n00:03:57,320 –> 00:04:01,440
\nWe have to acknowledge that we
\nwe’ve seen a world in chaos and <\/p>\n
71
\n00:04:01,440 –> 00:04:03,800
\nthat has created some issues in
\nthe ecclesia as well. <\/p>\n
72
\n00:04:03,800 –> 00:04:07,000
\nLet’s think about that.
\nHave you ever thought prior to <\/p>\n
73
\n00:04:07,000 –> 00:04:10,600
\ntwo years ago that we would have
\necclesial discussion, some of it<\/p>\n
74
\n00:04:10,600 –> 00:04:13,280
\nquite heated, about whether
\nwearing a mask was an act of <\/p>\n
75
\n00:04:13,280 –> 00:04:17,120
\nfaith or responsible,
\nresponsible act of service? <\/p>\n
76
\n00:04:18,000 –> 00:04:20,160
\nEvery ecclesia in the world had
\nthat conversation. <\/p>\n
77
\n00:04:20,519 –> 00:04:23,560
\nAnd some of those got ugly
\nbecause they’re both right. <\/p>\n
78
\n00:04:23,920 –> 00:04:26,440
\nThe person that says if God
\nwants me to get COVID, I’m going<\/p>\n
79
\n00:04:26,440 –> 00:04:28,240
\nto get COVID, Guess what?
\nThey’re right. <\/p>\n
80
\n00:04:28,680 –> 00:04:31,960
\nWhether they wear a mask or not,
\nit’s not immunity, but the <\/p>\n
81
\n00:04:31,960 –> 00:04:34,200
\nperson that says, look, I have
\nthe information, I should use <\/p>\n
82
\n00:04:34,200 –> 00:04:36,400
\nthat information to protect my
\nfamily and be respectful to <\/p>\n
83
\n00:04:36,400 –> 00:04:38,560
\nthose around me that they’re
\nright too. <\/p>\n
84
\n00:04:39,680 –> 00:04:41,480
\nThat’s the beauty of ecclesial
\nservice, isn’t it? <\/p>\n
85
\n00:04:42,080 –> 00:04:45,760
\nTwo people right opposite sides
\nof the coin, finding a way to <\/p>\n
86
\n00:04:45,760 –> 00:04:49,040
\nwork together and love to show
\nthe gospel in their life. <\/p>\n
87
\n00:04:51,120 –> 00:04:53,920
\nDid you ever expect to hear
\ntalks or read articles in our <\/p>\n
88
\n00:04:53,920 –> 00:04:56,600
\ncommunity about the social
\ninjustices this world has <\/p>\n
89
\n00:04:56,600 –> 00:05:00,720
\ncreated and continues to create?
\nDid you ever expect that we have<\/p>\n
90
\n00:05:00,920 –> 00:05:04,200
\nsee things like the LGBT and
\nwhatever movement become <\/p>\n
91
\n00:05:04,200 –> 00:05:07,800
\nmainstream in the world and even
\nimpact conversations in the <\/p>\n
92
\n00:05:07,800 –> 00:05:10,880
\necclesia?
\nDid you ever think social media <\/p>\n
93
\n00:05:10,880 –> 00:05:13,280
\nwould light up with heated
\npolitical debate amongst <\/p>\n
94
\n00:05:13,280 –> 00:05:17,600
\nbrothers and sisters?
\nThose are all real examples in <\/p>\n
95
\n00:05:17,600 –> 00:05:22,000
\nour community right now.
\nWhat’s even more astounding is <\/p>\n
96
\n00:05:22,040 –> 00:05:26,240
\nall of this has happened before
\nwe can see evidence from a major<\/p>\n
97
\n00:05:26,240 –> 00:05:30,800
\nworldview issue and their impact
\non the ecclesia all the way back<\/p>\n
98
\n00:05:30,800 –> 00:05:34,000
\nin Genesis.
\nI want you to picture your <\/p>\n
99
\n00:05:34,000 –> 00:05:38,320
\nfamily here, and I know I’m not
\nthat skinny, but picture your <\/p>\n
100
\n00:05:38,320 –> 00:05:40,440
\nfamily.
\nGet a picture in your mind. <\/p>\n
101
\n00:05:40,440 –> 00:05:43,160
\nWe all have family and friends
\nthat we care about and we would <\/p>\n
102
\n00:05:43,160 –> 00:05:48,840
\ndo anything within our power to
\nhelp them find peace and hope in<\/p>\n
103
\n00:05:48,840 –> 00:05:51,240
\nthe Kingdom of God.
\nDo you have a picture in your <\/p>\n
104
\n00:05:51,240 –> 00:05:57,920
\nmind now?
\nWhat could a story approximately<\/p>\n
105
\n00:05:57,920 –> 00:06:01,720
\n4500 years ago do to help me
\ntoday? <\/p>\n
106
\n00:06:03,280 –> 00:06:06,560
\nAs we mentioned on Sunday,
\neverybody knows this story and <\/p>\n
107
\n00:06:06,560 –> 00:06:09,160
\nwe got little cute songs and
\nthen going two by two and into <\/p>\n
108
\n00:06:09,160 –> 00:06:12,520
\nthe ark and all that’s cute.
\nSo let’s have a quiz. <\/p>\n
109
\n00:06:13,480 –> 00:06:15,920
\nHow many of each animal entered
\ninto the ark? <\/p>\n
110
\n00:06:18,240 –> 00:06:20,160
\n7:00 and 2:00.
\nSo cleaner and clean. <\/p>\n
111
\n00:06:20,160 –> 00:06:21,800
\nSo we’ve got something started
\nthere. <\/p>\n
112
\n00:06:22,280 –> 00:06:26,280
\nThe detailed answer will come in
\na class titled by Sevens, so if <\/p>\n
113
\n00:06:26,280 –> 00:06:28,120
\nyou need more hints than that,
\nthis is going to be a. <\/p>\n
114
\n00:06:28,120 –> 00:06:32,680
\nRough week for you now.
\nThe point today is the <\/p>\n
115
\n00:06:32,680 –> 00:06:34,240
\nchildren’s story is part of the
\nstory. <\/p>\n
116
\n00:06:34,240 –> 00:06:36,560
\nThere’s nothing wrong with us
\ntalking about the animals coming<\/p>\n
117
\n00:06:36,560 –> 00:06:38,360
\nin two by two, because that is
\ntrue. <\/p>\n
118
\n00:06:39,560 –> 00:06:41,000
\nBut think about it for just a
\nmoment. <\/p>\n
119
\n00:06:41,160 –> 00:06:45,200
\nIf there’s only two cow, the
\nfirst family BBQ end of a <\/p>\n
120
\n00:06:45,200 –> 00:06:48,200
\nspecies.
\nSo it makes sense that God <\/p>\n
121
\n00:06:48,200 –> 00:06:51,600
\nplanned ahead and gave a little
\nbit of detail to set the stage. <\/p>\n
122
\n00:06:51,760 –> 00:06:54,280
\nWell, there’s a little more
\ndetail coming because our God is<\/p>\n
123
\n00:06:54,280 –> 00:06:56,320
\nreasonable and wants us to
\nunderstand it. <\/p>\n
124
\n00:06:56,840 –> 00:06:58,560
\nWell, there’s a few other
\nquestions we could ask. <\/p>\n
125
\n00:06:58,560 –> 00:07:00,040
\nI’ll do another one for a
\nbaseline. <\/p>\n
126
\n00:07:00,800 –> 00:07:03,040
\nWhat was the first fruit
\nmentioned in the Bible? <\/p>\n
127
\n00:07:05,600 –> 00:07:09,200
\nEverybody’s like 17.
\nThat’s a subliminal message, <\/p>\n
128
\n00:07:09,200 –> 00:07:11,280
\nisn’t it?
\nWhat was the first fruit <\/p>\n
129
\n00:07:11,280 –> 00:07:14,480
\nmentioned in the Bible?
\nFig. <\/p>\n
130
\n00:07:14,480 –> 00:07:16,520
\nSomebody said it, and maybe it
\nwas mumbled somewhere else too. <\/p>\n
131
\n00:07:16,920 –> 00:07:19,280
\nFig.
\nThe lesson? <\/p>\n
132
\n00:07:19,680 –> 00:07:20,680
\nIs in the.
\nDetails. <\/p>\n
133
\n00:07:20,960 –> 00:07:23,600
\nHow about the New Testament?
\nWe use this one in our <\/p>\n
134
\n00:07:23,600 –> 00:07:25,560
\nexhortation.
\nIt’s why we care, because if we <\/p>\n
135
\n00:07:25,560 –> 00:07:29,280
\ncan better understand the days
\nof Noah, we know what to look <\/p>\n
136
\n00:07:29,280 –> 00:07:32,440
\nlike.
\nAnd expect in the days coming up<\/p>\n
137
\n00:07:32,440 –> 00:07:37,360
\nto the the return of our Lord.
\nSo here’s where we’re going to <\/p>\n
138
\n00:07:37,360 –> 00:07:41,800
\nstart.
\nIn the days of Noah, Luke 1727, <\/p>\n
139
\n00:07:41,800 –> 00:07:44,920
\nthey did eat, they drank, they
\nmarried wives, they were given <\/p>\n
140
\n00:07:44,920 –> 00:07:47,160
\nin marriage until the day Noah
\nentered the ark, the flood came <\/p>\n
141
\n00:07:47,160 –> 00:07:49,600
\nand destroyed them all.
\nWhat’s wrong with that? <\/p>\n
142
\n00:07:51,320 –> 00:07:53,840
\nEating, drinking, getting
\nmarried. <\/p>\n
143
\n00:07:53,960 –> 00:07:56,120
\nOK, let me let me see if we can
\ncondemn ourselves now. <\/p>\n
144
\n00:07:56,120 –> 00:07:58,160
\nHow many of you have had
\nsomething to eat in your life? <\/p>\n
145
\n00:07:58,160 –> 00:08:01,080
\nHow many of you had something to
\ndrink in your life? <\/p>\n
146
\n00:08:01,280 –> 00:08:03,320
\nHow many of you are married?
\nOK, how many of you love your <\/p>\n
147
\n00:08:03,320 –> 00:08:05,560
\nmother?
\nSo that last one is just to show<\/p>\n
148
\n00:08:05,560 –> 00:08:07,080
\nyou some of you won’t raise your
\nhands for anything. <\/p>\n
149
\n00:08:07,360 –> 00:08:10,960
\nNow here, here’s the point.
\nIf eating, drinking and getting <\/p>\n
150
\n00:08:10,960 –> 00:08:13,880
\nmarried is bad, well, we’re all
\ncondemned. <\/p>\n
151
\n00:08:13,880 –> 00:08:15,720
\nWhat’s wrong with eating,
\ndrinking, getting married? <\/p>\n
152
\n00:08:15,720 –> 00:08:18,200
\nWe give thanks for our meal, we
\nenjoy the fellowship meal <\/p>\n
153
\n00:08:18,200 –> 00:08:19,640
\ntogether.
\nWe get married. <\/p>\n
154
\n00:08:19,640 –> 00:08:21,840
\nWe get to learn the concept of
\nfamily and ecclesial life and <\/p>\n
155
\n00:08:21,840 –> 00:08:25,120
\nour Those are all good things,
\nbut there is a missing <\/p>\n
156
\n00:08:25,120 –> 00:08:28,080
\ningredient.
\nAnd that was. <\/p>\n
157
\n00:08:28,080 –> 00:08:31,880
\nWhat was wrong with the world?
\nThe missing ingredient was God. <\/p>\n
158
\n00:08:32,840 –> 00:08:34,559
\nThey were eating, they were
\ndrinking, they were getting <\/p>\n
159
\n00:08:34,559 –> 00:08:37,159
\nmarried, but it had nothing to
\ndo with to the glory of the <\/p>\n
160
\n00:08:37,159 –> 00:08:40,320
\nFather.
\nThe absence of the glory of the <\/p>\n
161
\n00:08:40,320 –> 00:08:43,240
\nFather is what put the world in
\na tailspin. <\/p>\n
162
\n00:08:43,240 –> 00:08:47,360
\nAnd then we look at our day.
\nThe world has been trying to <\/p>\n
163
\n00:08:47,360 –> 00:08:53,680
\ntake God out of this world four
\nyears, four years by design. <\/p>\n
164
\n00:08:53,920 –> 00:08:55,560
\nSo we’ll go back just a few
\nyears. <\/p>\n
165
\n00:08:55,560 –> 00:08:57,200
\nYou guys all remember 911,
\nright? <\/p>\n
166
\n00:08:57,680 –> 00:08:59,440
\nLet’s go back a few months
\nbefore then. <\/p>\n
167
\n00:08:59,440 –> 00:09:03,040
\nWhat there was a lot of talk
\nabout taking the name of In God <\/p>\n
168
\n00:09:03,040 –> 00:09:07,080
\nwe Trust off the coinage.
\nOK, well, I don’t care about <\/p>\n
169
\n00:09:07,080 –> 00:09:08,560
\nthat, but we get why do we have
\nto take God off? <\/p>\n
170
\n00:09:08,560 –> 00:09:11,760
\nOK, well, there’s one number.
\nTwo, there was a court, I think <\/p>\n
171
\n00:09:11,760 –> 00:09:14,200
\nit was Illinois, the state
\nSupreme Court had the 10 <\/p>\n
172
\n00:09:14,200 –> 00:09:17,080
\ncommandments on the wall and
\nthere was an uprage, an outrage <\/p>\n
173
\n00:09:17,080 –> 00:09:18,800
\nabout why we got to get them off
\nthe wall. <\/p>\n
174
\n00:09:18,880 –> 00:09:20,920
\nSeparation of church and state,
\nwhich that was totally out of <\/p>\n
175
\n00:09:20,920 –> 00:09:25,600
\ncontext nonetheless.
\nAnd in California, at that time,<\/p>\n
176
\n00:09:25,800 –> 00:09:31,680
\nit was made illegal for a child
\nto say prayer in school. <\/p>\n
177
\n00:09:33,160 –> 00:09:35,960
\nSo if I’m going to school, give
\nthanks for our meal, I’m <\/p>\n
178
\n00:09:35,960 –> 00:09:40,360
\nactually breaking the law.
\nAnd then couple planes hit <\/p>\n
179
\n00:09:40,360 –> 00:09:43,160
\nbuildings in New York and
\nWashington, DC, and the <\/p>\n
180
\n00:09:43,160 –> 00:09:45,680
\npresident declared a National
\nDay of Prayer, and all of a <\/p>\n
181
\n00:09:45,680 –> 00:09:48,880
\nsudden it was OK.
\nBecause when we’re scared, we <\/p>\n
182
\n00:09:48,880 –> 00:09:51,080
\nturn to God.
\nAnd when we’re not, we lean on <\/p>\n
183
\n00:09:51,080 –> 00:09:53,080
\nself.
\nThat is our natural human <\/p>\n
184
\n00:09:53,080 –> 00:09:54,680
\ninclination.
\nAnd it’s been that way since the<\/p>\n
185
\n00:09:54,680 –> 00:09:57,240
\nbeginning of time.
\nWe are no different than the <\/p>\n
186
\n00:09:57,240 –> 00:10:00,840
\nworld around us, other than the
\nfact that we know we have an <\/p>\n
187
\n00:10:00,840 –> 00:10:02,640
\nopportunity to try to fight that
\nstruggle. <\/p>\n
188
\n00:10:03,080 –> 00:10:05,760
\nSo when I did this in the teens
\nclass. <\/p>\n
189
\n00:10:05,760 –> 00:10:07,480
\nSo one of you is going to have
\nto pretend you’ve not heard this<\/p>\n
190
\n00:10:07,480 –> 00:10:09,760
\nbefore, What happens when a baby
\nis sad? <\/p>\n
191
\n00:10:09,760 –> 00:10:13,280
\nWhat does it do?
\nAnd when it’s tired, what’s <\/p>\n
192
\n00:10:13,280 –> 00:10:15,240
\nhungry?
\nWhen it’s dirty? <\/p>\n
193
\n00:10:16,520 –> 00:10:17,920
\nSome grow out of that, some
\ndon’t. <\/p>\n
194
\n00:10:19,520 –> 00:10:24,480
\nBut we are naturally selfish, we
\nnaturally see what our needs are<\/p>\n
195
\n00:10:24,480 –> 00:10:27,480
\nand we cry for help.
\nAnd so that’s I think partly why<\/p>\n
196
\n00:10:27,480 –> 00:10:30,840
\nwe have problems in this life is
\nour God, His in his divine <\/p>\n
197
\n00:10:30,840 –> 00:10:34,400
\nwisdom said this population
\nneeds challenges or they will <\/p>\n
198
\n00:10:34,400 –> 00:10:36,800
\nleave me out.
\nAnd every time we have a <\/p>\n
199
\n00:10:36,800 –> 00:10:39,240
\nproblem, our prayer life gets
\nmuch better, does it not? <\/p>\n
200
\n00:10:40,000 –> 00:10:43,360
\nSo here’s a challenge for us to
\nacknowledge that if your prayer <\/p>\n
201
\n00:10:43,360 –> 00:10:46,960
\nlife is weak today, is it
\nbecause you don’t have any <\/p>\n
202
\n00:10:46,960 –> 00:10:49,240
\nproblems or you’re asking or
\nyou’re not asking God to help <\/p>\n
203
\n00:10:49,240 –> 00:10:51,360
\nyou solve?
\nThem that’s the ask the little <\/p>\n
204
\n00:10:51,360 –> 00:10:52,840
\nhand on the inside.
\nI’m not asking you to raise your<\/p>\n
205
\n00:10:52,840 –> 00:10:56,000
\nhand out loud.
\nHebrews 11 verse seven. <\/p>\n
206
\n00:10:56,160 –> 00:10:59,440
\nI didn’t talk about it.
\nWe we read this in the <\/p>\n
207
\n00:10:59,440 –> 00:11:02,360
\nexhortation and I just want to
\ncomment here, wouldn’t. <\/p>\n
208
\n00:11:02,400 –> 00:11:05,320
\nAll of us.
\nLike to have our name inserted <\/p>\n
209
\n00:11:05,320 –> 00:11:07,600
\nhere.
\nKnowing that Noah’s day <\/p>\n
210
\n00:11:07,600 –> 00:11:10,840
\nrepresents the last days before
\nJesus returns, wouldn’t you love<\/p>\n
211
\n00:11:10,840 –> 00:11:13,480
\nto be able to read?
\nAnd Dennis, being warned of God,<\/p>\n
212
\n00:11:13,480 –> 00:11:16,280
\nwas moved with fear and prepared
\nan ark to save his house. <\/p>\n
213
\n00:11:18,680 –> 00:11:22,320
\nWe’d all love to insert our name
\nthere, and that is why we are <\/p>\n
214
\n00:11:22,320 –> 00:11:25,160
\nhere.
\nSo let’s go to Genesis, where <\/p>\n
215
\n00:11:25,160 –> 00:11:28,800
\nNoah’s introduced.
\nWe’re at Genesis 5, verse 28. <\/p>\n
216
\n00:11:29,560 –> 00:11:34,960
\nLamech lived 180 in two years
\nbegat his son, and called his <\/p>\n
217
\n00:11:34,960 –> 00:11:36,520
\nname.
\nNoah saying This same shall <\/p>\n
218
\n00:11:36,520 –> 00:11:39,680
\ncomfort us concerning our work
\nand toil of our hands, because <\/p>\n
219
\n00:11:39,680 –> 00:11:41,800
\nof the ground which the Lord
\nhath cursed. <\/p>\n
220
\n00:11:42,240 –> 00:11:44,960
\nThis is the.
\nFirst time his name is used. <\/p>\n
221
\n00:11:45,480 –> 00:11:48,960
\nHis name in Hebrew means Rest,
\nSo it’s appropriate we get to <\/p>\n
222
\n00:11:48,960 –> 00:11:51,960
\nstart with a man named Rest.
\nAnd he’s named that way because,<\/p>\n
223
\n00:11:52,120 –> 00:11:56,000
\nwell, we think this guy is going
\nto give us comfort in toil in <\/p>\n
224
\n00:11:56,000 –> 00:12:02,320
\nour toil because of the curse.
\nSo the naming of Noah directly <\/p>\n
225
\n00:12:02,320 –> 00:12:06,360
\nties to the.
\nCurse and promise In the first <\/p>\n
226
\n00:12:06,360 –> 00:12:09,480
\ncouple chapters of Genesis,
\nwe’ve got his name, the concept <\/p>\n
227
\n00:12:09,480 –> 00:12:13,720
\nof what Noah Noah’s name ties to
\nwhat God did on the 7th day <\/p>\n
228
\n00:12:13,920 –> 00:12:18,680
\ncreation account, and we have
\ndirect connection to the curse <\/p>\n
229
\n00:12:18,680 –> 00:12:21,520
\nin Genesis chapter 3.
\nSo let’s look at the curse <\/p>\n
230
\n00:12:21,520 –> 00:12:26,800
\nfirst.
\nSo he says to Adam, Because that<\/p>\n
231
\n00:12:26,800 –> 00:12:29,080
\nwas hearkened to the voice of
\nthy wife, and has eaten of the <\/p>\n
232
\n00:12:29,080 –> 00:12:31,280
\ntree which I commended thee,
\nsaying, Thou shalt not eat of <\/p>\n
233
\n00:12:31,280 –> 00:12:33,000
\nit.
\nCursed is the ground for thy <\/p>\n
234
\n00:12:33,000 –> 00:12:34,720
\nsake, and ensar all.
\nThou shalt eat of it all. <\/p>\n
235
\n00:12:34,720 –> 00:12:39,440
\nThe days of thy life So Adam’s
\nnew role requires hard labor to <\/p>\n
236
\n00:12:39,440 –> 00:12:41,360
\nproduce food and provide his
\nfamily. <\/p>\n
237
\n00:12:41,880 –> 00:12:45,000
\nTo protect and to guide, He has
\nmore responsibility. <\/p>\n
238
\n00:12:45,000 –> 00:12:49,560
\nNow, prior to the curse, we were
\ntold in chapter 2, verse 15 that<\/p>\n
239
\n00:12:49,760 –> 00:12:52,640
\nhe was given a place in the
\ngarden to dress it and to keep <\/p>\n
240
\n00:12:52,640 –> 00:12:54,360
\nit.
\nNow let’s be honest here. <\/p>\n
241
\n00:12:55,000 –> 00:12:58,720
\nHow hard is that job?
\nThis is before you’ve got <\/p>\n
242
\n00:12:58,720 –> 00:13:01,880
\nchallenges with cigarette butts
\nand Styrofoam cups. <\/p>\n
243
\n00:13:02,160 –> 00:13:05,120
\nWe, we don’t have anyone making
\na mess but you. <\/p>\n
244
\n00:13:05,840 –> 00:13:08,080
\nSo here’s your job.
\nKeep it clean. <\/p>\n
245
\n00:13:08,240 –> 00:13:09,880
\nOh, there’s nothing here to mess
\nwith yet. <\/p>\n
246
\n00:13:09,880 –> 00:13:14,480
\nBut you know, do your best.
\nBut as a result of sin, we’re <\/p>\n
247
\n00:13:14,480 –> 00:13:16,800
\nnot punished for our sins, but
\nby our sins. <\/p>\n
248
\n00:13:17,360 –> 00:13:21,800
\nAnd so by their sins, we have
\nAdam now having to work harder <\/p>\n
249
\n00:13:22,440 –> 00:13:24,080
\nto do what he was commanded to
\ndo. <\/p>\n
250
\n00:13:24,320 –> 00:13:27,400
\nTo preserve and protect his
\nfamily, to provide for them. <\/p>\n
251
\n00:13:30,160 –> 00:13:33,360
\nVerse 8:00 and 9:00 We get some
\ngifts with purchase, thorns and <\/p>\n
252
\n00:13:33,360 –> 00:13:36,120
\nthistles that shall bring forth
\nunto thee, and thou shalt eat. <\/p>\n
253
\n00:13:36,160 –> 00:13:37,760
\nThe bread of the field.
\nIn this what do I face? <\/p>\n
254
\n00:13:37,760 –> 00:13:39,640
\nThou shalt eat bread till thou
\nreturn to the ground. <\/p>\n
255
\n00:13:39,840 –> 00:13:42,360
\nFor out of this thou was taken.
\nFor dust thou art, and dust thou<\/p>\n
256
\n00:13:42,360 –> 00:13:45,680
\nshalt return.
\nSo if not tended to, thorns and <\/p>\n
257
\n00:13:45,680 –> 00:13:48,160
\nthistles will overtake any
\ngarden, much like sin can <\/p>\n
258
\n00:13:48,160 –> 00:13:51,520
\novertake our lives.
\nIf we don’t contend against the <\/p>\n
259
\n00:13:51,520 –> 00:13:53,960
\nthinking of the flesh and
\ncarefully maintain our walk, <\/p>\n
260
\n00:13:54,000 –> 00:13:56,920
\nthistles will creep in.
\nSo how do we? <\/p>\n
261
\n00:13:56,920 –> 00:14:01,880
\nMaintain our life to keep the
\nchallenges of sin outside of our<\/p>\n
262
\n00:14:01,880 –> 00:14:05,360
\nminds.
\nThe answer readings Study <\/p>\n
263
\n00:14:05,760 –> 00:14:07,960
\nconversations with people of
\nlike precious faith. <\/p>\n
264
\n00:14:08,200 –> 00:14:11,320
\nBecause when we’re focused on
\ndoing that which is right in the<\/p>\n
265
\n00:14:11,320 –> 00:14:15,640
\neyes of God, we spend less time
\nfocusing on the problems in our <\/p>\n
266
\n00:14:15,640 –> 00:14:18,440
\nlife, whether they’re of
\nourselves or those around us. <\/p>\n
267
\n00:14:19,720 –> 00:14:21,960
\nKeeping the word.
\nOf God, paramount in our life, <\/p>\n
268
\n00:14:21,960 –> 00:14:25,440
\nis critical for us to overcome
\nthe thorns and thistles that <\/p>\n
269
\n00:14:25,440 –> 00:14:28,960
\nwill inevitably bite us if we
\nleave them too close to our <\/p>\n
270
\n00:14:28,960 –> 00:14:33,400
\ngarden and our thinking.
\nNow, like sin, the result is not<\/p>\n
271
\n00:14:33,400 –> 00:14:36,360
\nimmediate but eventual.
\nThe the wages of sin is death, <\/p>\n
272
\n00:14:36,360 –> 00:14:39,240
\nbut it’s not the instantaneous
\nthing one might think. <\/p>\n
273
\n00:14:39,240 –> 00:14:41,560
\nYou know the from.
\nDust our to dust our shot <\/p>\n
274
\n00:14:41,560 –> 00:14:42,920
\nreturn.
\nGod could have said Adam, you <\/p>\n
275
\n00:14:42,920 –> 00:14:44,520
\nblew up, you’re gone.
\nI’m going to start over with <\/p>\n
276
\n00:14:44,520 –> 00:14:46,200
\nBill, but he.
\nDoesn’t. <\/p>\n
277
\n00:14:47,400 –> 00:14:48,960
\nGives them an.
\nOpportunity because with <\/p>\n
278
\n00:14:49,280 –> 00:14:53,320
\neverything that operates with
\nour Father, hope is embedded in <\/p>\n
279
\n00:14:53,320 –> 00:14:55,760
\nthe problem.
\nAnd so He does that same thing <\/p>\n
280
\n00:14:55,760 –> 00:14:58,840
\nin Genesis.
\nSo let’s look at the promise <\/p>\n
281
\n00:15:00,320 –> 00:15:02,760
\nunto Adam and his wife.
\nDid the Lord God make coats of <\/p>\n
282
\n00:15:02,760 –> 00:15:05,680
\nskins and he clothed them?
\nSo they clothed. <\/p>\n
283
\n00:15:05,680 –> 00:15:07,920
\nThemselves with fig leaves first
\nfruit. <\/p>\n
284
\n00:15:08,240 –> 00:15:11,560
\nWell, that one makes a little
\nsense because fig is a big leaf.<\/p>\n
285
\n00:15:11,560 –> 00:15:13,720
\nThey didn’t pick up Fern and say
\nlet’s see what we can do with <\/p>\n
286
\n00:15:13,720 –> 00:15:15,200
\nthis.
\nTo start with, a fig. <\/p>\n
287
\n00:15:15,200 –> 00:15:18,480
\nLeaf, which would, by the way,
\nbe a terrible covering. <\/p>\n
288
\n00:15:19,040 –> 00:15:21,040
\nCan you?
\nFig leaf is big, but they’re <\/p>\n
289
\n00:15:21,040 –> 00:15:22,600
\nalso sticky.
\nAnyone ever seen a fig leaf? <\/p>\n
290
\n00:15:23,480 –> 00:15:25,840
\nImagine putting that on the
\nsensitive parts of your body and<\/p>\n
291
\n00:15:25,840 –> 00:15:27,440
\nwalking around in a garden for a
\nwhile. <\/p>\n
292
\n00:15:28,360 –> 00:15:29,880
\nThis.
\nInstantly would have been a bad <\/p>\n
293
\n00:15:29,880 –> 00:15:34,160
\nidea, but notice that bad
\ndecision our God picks up <\/p>\n
294
\n00:15:34,160 –> 00:15:36,600
\nthroughout the entire Old
\nTestament as a representation of<\/p>\n
295
\n00:15:36,600 –> 00:15:39,280
\nnatural Israel.
\nThe root. <\/p>\n
296
\n00:15:39,520 –> 00:15:42,680
\nOf the representation of natural
\nIsrael comes from the bad <\/p>\n
297
\n00:15:42,680 –> 00:15:44,240
\ndecision.
\nLet’s cover ourselves with this <\/p>\n
298
\n00:15:44,240 –> 00:15:49,080
\nterrible leaf and our God said,
\nyou know, we’ve got to teach a <\/p>\n
299
\n00:15:49,080 –> 00:15:51,560
\nlesson here.
\nOut of this tragedy must come <\/p>\n
300
\n00:15:51,560 –> 00:15:53,200
\nhope.
\nAnd the. <\/p>\n
301
\n00:15:53,200 –> 00:15:57,560
\nConcept of the covering of sin
\nrequires the shedding of blood <\/p>\n
302
\n00:15:57,560 –> 00:16:01,200
\nis embedded in the story of.
\nGenesis chapter 3. <\/p>\n
303
\n00:16:01,200 –> 00:16:03,000
\nObviously, this is not a slide
\nfor PETA. <\/p>\n
304
\n00:16:04,280 –> 00:16:06,360
\nThe.
\nPrimary lesson in this chapter <\/p>\n
305
\n00:16:06,360 –> 00:16:10,120
\nof scripture is we can see the
\nhope of redemption through the <\/p>\n
306
\n00:16:10,120 –> 00:16:14,320
\nblood of Jesus prophetically.
\nIn fact, at the crucifixion, <\/p>\n
307
\n00:16:14,440 –> 00:16:18,560
\nwhat materials were used to make
\na mock crown for Jesus? <\/p>\n
308
\n00:16:19,240 –> 00:16:22,240
\nThorns and.
\nThistles so the connection from <\/p>\n
309
\n00:16:22,240 –> 00:16:27,760
\nEden to the crucifixion is clear
\nas day and a bridge between <\/p>\n
310
\n00:16:27,760 –> 00:16:31,200
\nthose two.
\nWe have Noah whose name to bring<\/p>\n
311
\n00:16:31,200 –> 00:16:34,160
\nus back to creation.
\nCurse and promise. <\/p>\n
312
\n00:16:34,880 –> 00:16:37,600
\nOK, Stage set.
\nGenesis 3 everywhere. <\/p>\n
313
\n00:16:37,600 –> 00:16:38,480
\nI love it.
\nAll right. <\/p>\n
314
\n00:16:39,040 –> 00:16:41,920
\nGenesis 532.
\nWe have some. <\/p>\n
315
\n00:16:41,920 –> 00:16:43,320
\nMath.
\nThose of you who love math, <\/p>\n
316
\n00:16:43,320 –> 00:16:45,360
\ntoday and tomorrow we’re going
\nto do a little math quiz. <\/p>\n
317
\n00:16:45,360 –> 00:16:49,080
\nSo, you know, if you’re excited
\nright now, sorry, he’s 500. <\/p>\n
318
\n00:16:49,080 –> 00:16:51,800
\nYears old he begets Shem, Ham
\nand Japheth. <\/p>\n
319
\n00:16:51,800 –> 00:16:55,120
\nSo this verse is a very
\nimportant clue that we will <\/p>\n
320
\n00:16:55,320 –> 00:16:59,840
\nclarify a very dramatic detail
\nby the end of today. <\/p>\n
321
\n00:17:00,480 –> 00:17:02,280
\nSo.
\nStart. 500 years. <\/p>\n
322
\n00:17:04,280 –> 00:17:05,319
\nIt came to.
\nPass. <\/p>\n
323
\n00:17:05,520 –> 00:17:07,720
\nWhen men began to multiply on
\nthe face of the earth, and <\/p>\n
324
\n00:17:07,720 –> 00:17:09,480
\ndaughters were born to them,
\nwhen was that? <\/p>\n
325
\n00:17:09,480 –> 00:17:12,000
\nWhen did men begin to multiply
\nin the face of the earth? <\/p>\n
326
\n00:17:13,200 –> 00:17:16,119
\nYeah, chapter. 4 chapter 5
\nThat’s right away. <\/p>\n
327
\n00:17:16,520 –> 00:17:19,319
\nYou you’ve got Chapter 4,
\nChapter 5, we’ve got the <\/p>\n
328
\n00:17:19,319 –> 00:17:21,319
\nbeginning of families are
\nintroduced. <\/p>\n
329
\n00:17:21,880 –> 00:17:25,200
\nSo what we’re reading now is a
\ncontinuation from the last <\/p>\n
330
\n00:17:25,200 –> 00:17:27,960
\nchapter.
\nIt’s a continuing thought. <\/p>\n
331
\n00:17:28,920 –> 00:17:30,680
\nThese.
\nProblems didn’t just appear out <\/p>\n
332
\n00:17:30,680 –> 00:17:34,360
\nof nowhere 14156 years later.
\nBam, everybody’s bad. <\/p>\n
333
\n00:17:34,960 –> 00:17:38,840
\nThe concept of serving self
\nstarted in the Garden of Eden <\/p>\n
334
\n00:17:39,680 –> 00:17:43,560
\nand got better at self-service
\nthrough Genesis chapter 4. <\/p>\n
335
\n00:17:43,800 –> 00:17:46,720
\nGenesis chapter 5 until we get
\nto chapter 6 and the world is so<\/p>\n
336
\n00:17:46,720 –> 00:17:49,160
\ngood at it.
\nGod says time to wipe this out. <\/p>\n
337
\n00:17:50,120 –> 00:17:52,560
\nSo what have we got?
\nUp to this point, Genesis 1. <\/p>\n
338
\n00:17:52,560 –> 00:17:55,240
\nAnd two, we have creation,
\nGenesis 3, the curse and the <\/p>\n
339
\n00:17:55,240 –> 00:17:56,800
\npromise.
\nA covering of sin requires a <\/p>\n
340
\n00:17:56,800 –> 00:17:58,280
\nshedding of blood.
\nChapter 4. <\/p>\n
341
\n00:17:58,280 –> 00:18:01,080
\nWe have the object lesson for
\nthat principle, Cain and Abel. <\/p>\n
342
\n00:18:01,680 –> 00:18:03,680
\nAnd then we have the book of
\ndeath, Genesis 5. <\/p>\n
343
\n00:18:03,680 –> 00:18:06,160
\nAnd he died, and he died, and he
\ndied. <\/p>\n
344
\n00:18:06,560 –> 00:18:09,640
\nHe died.
\nLet’s read this verse carefully.<\/p>\n
345
\n00:18:10,520 –> 00:18:12,480
\nWhen men.
\nBegan to multiply on the face of<\/p>\n
346
\n00:18:12,480 –> 00:18:15,200
\nthe Earth.
\nThis goes back again to Adam, <\/p>\n
347
\n00:18:15,480 –> 00:18:18,600
\nthe process leading to sin, the
\njudgment that was going to come <\/p>\n
348
\n00:18:18,600 –> 00:18:21,680
\non the planet.
\nSin crept in wherever people <\/p>\n
349
\n00:18:21,680 –> 00:18:25,400
\nwere, and it happens right away.
\nNow the word men. <\/p>\n
350
\n00:18:25,400 –> 00:18:27,240
\nIn.
\nHebrew is actually the word <\/p>\n
351
\n00:18:27,240 –> 00:18:29,720
\nAdam, and it’s singular.
\nSo in the Hebrew, this is <\/p>\n
352
\n00:18:29,720 –> 00:18:32,000
\nactually what it’s saying,
\nalthough we can. <\/p>\n
353
\n00:18:32,000 –> 00:18:34,120
\nGet there the long way around
\nthe English language. <\/p>\n
354
\n00:18:35,720 –> 00:18:37,720
\nNow, daughters.
\nWomen in Scripture often are <\/p>\n
355
\n00:18:37,720 –> 00:18:39,920
\nused to describe the state of
\nspirituality. <\/p>\n
356
\n00:18:39,920 –> 00:18:42,840
\nThis does not mean you know all
\nthe boys are good and all the <\/p>\n
357
\n00:18:42,840 –> 00:18:44,800
\ngirls are bad.
\nThat’s one way. <\/p>\n
358
\n00:18:44,800 –> 00:18:46,800
\nI guess you could take the first
\ncouple verses, but that’s not <\/p>\n
359
\n00:18:46,800 –> 00:18:49,520
\nwhat it’s saying.
\nIt’s giving when men begin to <\/p>\n
360
\n00:18:49,520 –> 00:18:51,320
\nmultiply.
\nSo we’re going back to Eden <\/p>\n
361
\n00:18:51,320 –> 00:18:54,800
\nagain, and now we’re going to
\ntalk about the spiritual state. <\/p>\n
362
\n00:18:55,640 –> 00:18:58,360
\nOf the planet.
\nSpecifically the Ecclesia, <\/p>\n
363
\n00:18:58,400 –> 00:19:01,400
\nbecause the remnant is always
\nthe focus of Scripture. <\/p>\n
364
\n00:19:03,120 –> 00:19:04,960
\nHow do we use?
\nThat when we refer to the the <\/p>\n
365
\n00:19:05,040 –> 00:19:08,520
\necclesia as the bride of Christ,
\nfor example, it holds true in <\/p>\n
366
\n00:19:08,520 –> 00:19:10,680
\nthe negative.
\nIdolatry is referred to in <\/p>\n
367
\n00:19:10,680 –> 00:19:14,200
\nScripture as adultery or
\nharlotry, as we’ve seen after <\/p>\n
368
\n00:19:14,280 –> 00:19:17,840
\ngoing going after other gods.
\nIt’s used to describe the state <\/p>\n
369
\n00:19:17,840 –> 00:19:19,920
\nof the Christian world at the
\ntime of our Lord’s return. <\/p>\n
370
\n00:19:19,920 –> 00:19:22,520
\nIn Revelation, Jason actually
\nmade reference to that verse. <\/p>\n
371
\n00:19:23,240 –> 00:19:25,000
\nThis next one we’ll use to make
\nthe point. <\/p>\n
372
\n00:19:25,960 –> 00:19:28,080
\nThe Sons of.
\nGod saw the daughters of men <\/p>\n
373
\n00:19:28,080 –> 00:19:30,600
\nthat they were fair, and they
\ntook of them wives whom they <\/p>\n
374
\n00:19:30,600 –> 00:19:33,480
\nwere chose.
\nThere is evil. <\/p>\n
375
\n00:19:33,480 –> 00:19:35,280
\nOn both sides of this gender
\ncoin. <\/p>\n
376
\n00:19:35,720 –> 00:19:39,480
\nSo when we take a look at the
\nplanet, they see sons of God, <\/p>\n
377
\n00:19:39,480 –> 00:19:41,120
\ndaughters of men.
\nWho are we talking about? <\/p>\n
378
\n00:19:41,680 –> 00:19:43,760
\nWell.
\nIt tells. <\/p>\n
379
\n00:19:43,760 –> 00:19:45,560
\nUs the spirituality of the
\ngroup. <\/p>\n
380
\n00:19:46,200 –> 00:19:50,160
\nThat not all was pleasant in
\nparadise and quickly we begin to<\/p>\n
381
\n00:19:50,160 –> 00:19:52,840
\nmove to self-service, which is
\nexactly what happens when we <\/p>\n
382
\n00:19:52,840 –> 00:19:54,680
\ntake God out as the missing
\ningredient. <\/p>\n
383
\n00:19:55,440 –> 00:19:57,680
\nWe know the.
\nStory of Cain and Abel so. <\/p>\n
384
\n00:19:57,680 –> 00:19:59,600
\nIt should come.
\nAs no surprise, the world began <\/p>\n
385
\n00:19:59,600 –> 00:20:03,440
\nto stray quickly.
\nAfter God created it. <\/p>\n
386
\n00:20:04,680 –> 00:20:06,960
\nSo.
\nRemember, as it was in the days <\/p>\n
387
\n00:20:06,960 –> 00:20:08,880
\nof Noah, so will it be in our
\nday. <\/p>\n
388
\n00:20:09,360 –> 00:20:11,760
\nSo we look around and see
\nchallenges in the world that are<\/p>\n
389
\n00:20:11,760 –> 00:20:13,680
\nimpacting the ecclesia.
\nIt should not be a surprise, it <\/p>\n
390
\n00:20:13,680 –> 00:20:16,840
\nshould be an expectation, should
\nbe something we’re prepared for <\/p>\n
391
\n00:20:16,960 –> 00:20:21,520
\nto make sure that I individually
\nam not a part of the drafting <\/p>\n
392
\n00:20:21,520 –> 00:20:24,720
\naway that is natural to the last
\ndays. <\/p>\n
393
\n00:20:25,360 –> 00:20:29,360
\nBecause if me individually and
\nfocusing on the things of the <\/p>\n
394
\n00:20:29,360 –> 00:20:32,760
\nKingdom and things of the name
\nand it’s changing who I am so <\/p>\n
395
\n00:20:32,760 –> 00:20:34,880
\nthat God can fill me with his
\nglory. <\/p>\n
396
\n00:20:35,120 –> 00:20:39,880
\nI then can come to my family and
\nshare and you on the same time <\/p>\n
397
\n00:20:39,880 –> 00:20:42,720
\nas trying to get you right.
\nSo that when we. <\/p>\n
398
\n00:20:42,720 –> 00:20:45,800
\nCome together.
\nWe are both sinners making <\/p>\n
399
\n00:20:45,800 –> 00:20:48,520
\nmistakes in love, coming
\ntogether to try to do things <\/p>\n
400
\n00:20:48,520 –> 00:20:51,080
\nGod’s way.
\nAnd with that perspective, we <\/p>\n
401
\n00:20:51,080 –> 00:20:52,720
\nhave a training ground for the
\nKingdom of God. <\/p>\n
402
\n00:20:52,880 –> 00:20:56,560
\nIt’s actually a very beautiful
\ndesign our God has put in play. <\/p>\n
403
\n00:20:57,000 –> 00:21:01,280
\nBut where the design falls is if
\nI come to the meeting to fix <\/p>\n
404
\n00:21:01,280 –> 00:21:03,440
\nyou.
\nNobody can do that, so I’m <\/p>\n
405
\n00:21:03,440 –> 00:21:07,200
\nappoint somebody else to.
\nCome to the meeting to fix you <\/p>\n
406
\n00:21:07,200 –> 00:21:09,960
\nor you or anyone.
\nI can’t fix you. <\/p>\n
407
\n00:21:09,960 –> 00:21:12,000
\nI have a tough enough time
\ntrying to fix me. <\/p>\n
408
\n00:21:12,320 –> 00:21:15,720
\nBut if I make myself feel better
\nby trying to fix you, I am not a<\/p>\n
409
\n00:21:15,720 –> 00:21:17,960
\nservant of God.
\nI am a servant of the flesh. <\/p>\n
410
\n00:21:18,680 –> 00:21:21,560
\nAnd that is the breakdown of
\nsociety that we see today. <\/p>\n
411
\n00:21:21,920 –> 00:21:24,360
\nAnd it will be the breakdown of
\nthe ecclesia as we get closer to<\/p>\n
412
\n00:21:24,360 –> 00:21:27,400
\nthe return of our Lord.
\nKnowing that gives us a chance <\/p>\n
413
\n00:21:27,400 –> 00:21:29,560
\nto fight it here.
\nSo we can. <\/p>\n
414
\n00:21:29,560 –> 00:21:32,560
\nShare it there as opposed to
\nfighting there. <\/p>\n
415
\n00:21:33,080 –> 00:21:35,240
\nAnd I’ve become it here.
\nDoes that make sense? <\/p>\n
416
\n00:21:36,080 –> 00:21:39,000
\nOK, now I want us to go to the
\nGarden of Eden. <\/p>\n
417
\n00:21:39,240 –> 00:21:44,840
\nAnd we remember Eve when she’s
\ntempted, she saw, she took and <\/p>\n
418
\n00:21:44,840 –> 00:21:46,960
\nshe chose.
\nAnd that is the same challenge <\/p>\n
419
\n00:21:46,960 –> 00:21:50,320
\nin the world today.
\nWhen we see, we take and we <\/p>\n
420
\n00:21:50,320 –> 00:21:53,680
\ndecide.
\nWe see things that might appeal <\/p>\n
421
\n00:21:53,680 –> 00:21:56,280
\nto our flesh, the lust of our.
\nFlesh, the lust of our eyes, the<\/p>\n
422
\n00:21:56,280 –> 00:21:58,280
\npride of our life, and before
\nwe. <\/p>\n
423
\n00:21:58,280 –> 00:22:00,440
\nKnow it.
\nWe’ve rationalized and justified<\/p>\n
424
\n00:22:00,440 –> 00:22:03,200
\nourselves to a position where
\nwe’ve left no room for the <\/p>\n
425
\n00:22:03,200 –> 00:22:05,800
\nFather to work.
\nMarrying. <\/p>\n
426
\n00:22:06,240 –> 00:22:09,240
\nEating and drinking.
\nSo if the. <\/p>\n
427
\n00:22:09,240 –> 00:22:11,600
\nDaughters of men represent the
\nspiritual state of the world. <\/p>\n
428
\n00:22:11,600 –> 00:22:13,440
\nWho were these sons of God?
\nGood question. <\/p>\n
429
\n00:22:13,440 –> 00:22:16,080
\nLet’s go back to when men began
\nto multiply in Genesis chapter <\/p>\n
430
\n00:22:16,080 –> 00:22:17,400
\n4.
\nAnd we have. <\/p>\n
431
\n00:22:17,400 –> 00:22:20,760
\nSeth Abel’s replacement to him
\nwas born a son. <\/p>\n
432
\n00:22:20,760 –> 00:22:23,760
\nHis name was Enos.
\nAnd then began men to fall, to <\/p>\n
433
\n00:22:23,760 –> 00:22:25,720
\nfall upon.
\nThat’s cute to call upon the <\/p>\n
434
\n00:22:25,720 –> 00:22:28,680
\nname of the Lord.
\nWell, let’s go to. <\/p>\n
435
\n00:22:28,680 –> 00:22:33,680
\nRomans 8 and 14 as many as are
\nled by the Spirit of God. <\/p>\n
436
\n00:22:35,440 –> 00:22:36,360
\nAre the sons?
\nOf God. <\/p>\n
437
\n00:22:37,320 –> 00:22:42,040
\nSo we have two things at play
\nhere if we want to be led by the<\/p>\n
438
\n00:22:42,040 –> 00:22:45,080
\nSpirit of God and do things
\nGod’s way. <\/p>\n
439
\n00:22:45,840 –> 00:22:47,120
\nThose two verses.
\nWe just looked at. <\/p>\n
440
\n00:22:47,560 –> 00:22:50,320
\nWe are surrendering the path
\nthat leads to death. <\/p>\n
441
\n00:22:50,440 –> 00:22:53,560
\nFrom dust thou was to dust thou
\nshall return in exchange for a <\/p>\n
442
\n00:22:53,560 –> 00:22:56,640
\npath that leads to life.
\nThe promise and the hope that. <\/p>\n
443
\n00:22:56,640 –> 00:22:59,640
\nEmbedded within the curse.
\nNow keep in mind that Spirit of <\/p>\n
444
\n00:22:59,640 –> 00:23:01,960
\nGod part, because that’s going
\nto play a prominent role in <\/p>\n
445
\n00:23:01,960 –> 00:23:04,600
\nGenesis 6.
\nIn verse 3, my spirit shall not <\/p>\n
446
\n00:23:04,600 –> 00:23:07,120
\nalways drive with man.
\nIn verse seven, I will destroy <\/p>\n
447
\n00:23:07,120 –> 00:23:10,560
\nman whom I have created.
\nVerse 13, the end of all flesh <\/p>\n
448
\n00:23:10,560 –> 00:23:13,360
\nhas come.
\nSo we’re looking at this early <\/p>\n
449
\n00:23:13,360 –> 00:23:17,560
\npart of Genesis 6, the divine
\ninspection started. <\/p>\n
450
\n00:23:18,520 –> 00:23:22,360
\nBy the Spirit of God not always
\nstriving with men, God. <\/p>\n
451
\n00:23:22,360 –> 00:23:27,360
\nLooked he decided.
\nHe withdrew a. <\/p>\n
452
\n00:23:27,360 –> 00:23:29,720
\nSpirit.
\nMade a decision. <\/p>\n
453
\n00:23:29,720 –> 00:23:32,080
\nTo destroy creation and
\nterminate all flesh. <\/p>\n
454
\n00:23:32,960 –> 00:23:35,440
\nThose are.
\nVery graphic words to consider, <\/p>\n
455
\n00:23:35,880 –> 00:23:38,720
\nespecially given the parent
\nchild relationship, and I think <\/p>\n
456
\n00:23:38,720 –> 00:23:41,520
\nthat’s on purpose.
\nSee some of what? <\/p>\n
457
\n00:23:41,520 –> 00:23:43,600
\nWe’re going to do is going to be
\na little fun, some of it’s going<\/p>\n
458
\n00:23:43,600 –> 00:23:45,840
\nto be very grave and this is one
\nof those moments. <\/p>\n
459
\n00:23:46,960 –> 00:23:48,640
\nWe have to put.
\nOurselves in the position of the<\/p>\n
460
\n00:23:48,640 –> 00:23:53,440
\nFather right now, looking upon
\nall the children he has made. <\/p>\n
461
\n00:23:54,880 –> 00:23:56,600
\nAnd deciding.
\nThey are better off dead. <\/p>\n
462
\n00:23:58,480 –> 00:24:00,600
\nThe.
\nGravity of that is astounding. <\/p>\n
463
\n00:24:00,600 –> 00:24:04,560
\nPicture your own children and
\ncoming to the conclusion. <\/p>\n
464
\n00:24:06,120 –> 00:24:07,360
\nThat child is.
\nBetter off dead. <\/p>\n
465
\n00:24:08,840 –> 00:24:10,440
\nHow about?
\nPicture your parents thinking <\/p>\n
466
\n00:24:10,440 –> 00:24:13,120
\nthat about you.
\nIt’s very. <\/p>\n
467
\n00:24:13,120 –> 00:24:16,160
\nGrave.
\nAnd we look at the Father taking<\/p>\n
468
\n00:24:16,160 –> 00:24:20,120
\nstock at his creation.
\nThat concept is very grave. <\/p>\n
469
\n00:24:20,960 –> 00:24:23,080
\nThis was.
\nNot a quick, snappy decision. <\/p>\n
470
\n00:24:23,080 –> 00:24:24,400
\nYou know what?
\nI’m tired of this stuff. <\/p>\n
471
\n00:24:24,400 –> 00:24:26,320
\nLet’s flood it clean and start
\nthe spin cycle. <\/p>\n
472
\n00:24:26,520 –> 00:24:30,440
\nIt’s not what our God did.
\nThis was a painful thing for the<\/p>\n
473
\n00:24:30,440 –> 00:24:33,520
\nFather, and we’re going to see
\nthat through this story. <\/p>\n
474
\n00:24:34,960 –> 00:24:37,040
\nThis is the.
\nInevitable result of children <\/p>\n
475
\n00:24:37,040 –> 00:24:41,240
\ngoing the wrong direction.
\nAnd our God recognized it and <\/p>\n
476
\n00:24:41,240 –> 00:24:42,800
\nlet us know this is how he would
\nsolve it. <\/p>\n
477
\n00:24:44,080 –> 00:24:47,680
\nAnyone know what the only one of
\nthe 10 commandments that was <\/p>\n
478
\n00:24:47,680 –> 00:24:49,600
\nstated exclusively in the
\npositive was? <\/p>\n
479
\n00:24:51,720 –> 00:24:53,840
\nNine of them have a Thou shalt
\nnot in them somewhere. <\/p>\n
480
\n00:24:53,840 –> 00:24:56,920
\nOne of them does not.
\nAnyone know #5 the number of <\/p>\n
481
\n00:24:56,920 –> 00:24:59,240
\ngrace?
\nHonour thy father and thy <\/p>\n
482
\n00:24:59,240 –> 00:25:00,480
\nmother.
\nIt’s the. <\/p>\n
483
\n00:25:00,560 –> 00:25:02,280
\nOnly.
\nOne stated in the positive. <\/p>\n
484
\n00:25:02,560 –> 00:25:06,080
\nIn fact, the Ephesians version,
\nthis is Ephesians 6, two and <\/p>\n
485
\n00:25:06,080 –> 00:25:08,520
\nthree, honor thy father, thy
\nmother, which is the first <\/p>\n
486
\n00:25:08,520 –> 00:25:11,880
\ncommandment with promise.
\nThat it may be. <\/p>\n
487
\n00:25:11,880 –> 00:25:14,320
\nWell, with thee that thou mayest
\nlive long on the earth. <\/p>\n
488
\n00:25:14,560 –> 00:25:17,040
\nSo that’s what’s on the queue
\nfor us. <\/p>\n
489
\n00:25:17,680 –> 00:25:19,840
\nIt’s worth noting these
\ncommandments were on 2 stone <\/p>\n
490
\n00:25:19,840 –> 00:25:22,960
\ntablets.
\nThe first one was 4 to God. <\/p>\n
491
\n00:25:23,840 –> 00:25:26,920
\nThis one.
\nTo the family and the second one<\/p>\n
492
\n00:25:26,920 –> 00:25:29,880
\nwas 5 all about individual
\nbehavior regarding how we treat <\/p>\n
493
\n00:25:29,880 –> 00:25:33,320
\neach other supports the theory
\nthat we need to put God first, <\/p>\n
494
\n00:25:34,600 –> 00:25:38,160
\nthen our family 2nd and
\nindividual pursuits third, <\/p>\n
495
\n00:25:38,960 –> 00:25:41,200
\nincluding fan of business other
\nobligations. <\/p>\n
496
\n00:25:41,840 –> 00:25:45,000
\nNow the last thought on define
\nthe divine inspection of this <\/p>\n
497
\n00:25:45,000 –> 00:25:47,520
\nchapter, we’re going to turn to
\nLeviticus 14. <\/p>\n
498
\n00:25:52,120 –> 00:25:54,440
\nWhen am I supposed to be done
\nbecause my timer stopped up <\/p>\n
499
\n00:25:54,440 –> 00:25:57,400
\nhere?
\n12 Oh yeah, we got. <\/p>\n
500
\n00:25:57,400 –> 00:26:01,080
\nPlenty of time, all right,
\nLeviticus 14, sort of We’re <\/p>\n
501
\n00:26:01,280 –> 00:26:03,080
\ngoing to look at verses 33
\nthrough 44. <\/p>\n
502
\n00:26:03,080 –> 00:26:06,160
\nI’m cherry picking for sake of
\ntime, so we. <\/p>\n
503
\n00:26:06,160 –> 00:26:10,400
\nHave the divine inspection for a
\nhouse that was infected by <\/p>\n
504
\n00:26:10,400 –> 00:26:14,400
\nleprosy, and it’s commonly used
\nto describe sin, so it’s <\/p>\n
505
\n00:26:14,400 –> 00:26:18,080
\nrelevant to our topic today.
\nHere we have that it was in the <\/p>\n
506
\n00:26:18,080 –> 00:26:19,680
\nhouse.
\nYou had to empty the house. <\/p>\n
507
\n00:26:20,240 –> 00:26:21,640
\nIf it was in the.
\nWalls of the house? <\/p>\n
508
\n00:26:21,640 –> 00:26:24,680
\nWell you shut the house up 7
\ndays re inspect. <\/p>\n
509
\n00:26:25,280 –> 00:26:28,160
\nIf it’s spread into the walls,
\ntake away the stones, cast them <\/p>\n
510
\n00:26:28,160 –> 00:26:30,360
\nout of the city.
\nScrape and pour the dust outside<\/p>\n
511
\n00:26:30,360 –> 00:26:32,240
\nof the city.
\nPut new stones in. <\/p>\n
512
\n00:26:33,320 –> 00:26:38,760
\nIf it reoccurs well, verse 45
\nbreakdown the house, the stones <\/p>\n
513
\n00:26:38,760 –> 00:26:40,840
\nof it, the timber thereof, the
\nmortar of the house, and you <\/p>\n
514
\n00:26:40,840 –> 00:26:43,960
\nshall carry them forth out of
\nthe city to an unclean place. <\/p>\n
515
\n00:26:44,480 –> 00:26:47,480
\nEssentially what our God is
\ndoing in Genesis chapter 6. <\/p>\n
516
\n00:26:48,280 –> 00:26:50,320
\nIs he’s looking.
\nAt his leprous house. <\/p>\n
517
\n00:26:50,680 –> 00:26:54,320
\nIn the days of Noah and deciding
\nhe has to clean it out and start<\/p>\n
518
\n00:26:54,320 –> 00:26:56,640
\nover.
\nWe want to be. <\/p>\n
519
\n00:26:56,640 –> 00:26:59,720
\nPart of the rebuild effort,
\nwhich is why we focus on Noah <\/p>\n
520
\n00:26:59,720 –> 00:27:03,280
\nand the family that’s saved, not
\nthe part that is torn down and <\/p>\n
521
\n00:27:03,280 –> 00:27:05,120
\ncast outside the city, is
\nunclean. <\/p>\n
522
\n00:27:05,840 –> 00:27:08,360
\nWe’ll keep that back in our mind
\nas we go back to Noah. <\/p>\n
523
\n00:27:10,600 –> 00:27:14,040
\nWe have. 2 camps.
\nOn the planet at this time and <\/p>\n
524
\n00:27:14,040 –> 00:27:16,480
\nverse 2, we have the sons of
\nGod, those who are trying to do <\/p>\n
525
\n00:27:16,480 –> 00:27:20,920
\nthings God’s way, and the
\ndaughters of men, those who are <\/p>\n
526
\n00:27:20,920 –> 00:27:24,160
\nfollowing after the flesh.
\nAnd here. <\/p>\n
527
\n00:27:24,160 –> 00:27:28,120
\nWe have the line of E Nos and
\nthe line of Cain. <\/p>\n
528
\n00:27:29,160 –> 00:27:31,040
\nYou can read Genesis. 4 on your
\nown if you want to get some fun <\/p>\n
529
\n00:27:31,040 –> 00:27:34,160
\nwith that now.
\nIn time, these two lines start <\/p>\n
530
\n00:27:34,160 –> 00:27:36,800
\nintermarrying.
\nNow let’s think about that. <\/p>\n
531
\n00:27:36,800 –> 00:27:39,400
\nWhenever a marriage takes place,
\ncompromise is part of the <\/p>\n
532
\n00:27:39,400 –> 00:27:41,160
\nequation.
\nIf it doesn’t happen that <\/p>\n
533
\n00:27:41,160 –> 00:27:43,360
\nmarriage doesn’t last,
\ncompromise. <\/p>\n
534
\n00:27:43,680 –> 00:27:47,320
\nHas to take.
\nPlace He thinks this should be <\/p>\n
535
\n00:27:47,320 –> 00:27:50,760
\ngreen.
\nShe thinks this should be blue. <\/p>\n
536
\n00:27:51,040 –> 00:27:53,520
\nSo they compromise and they do
\nit blue, right? <\/p>\n
537
\n00:27:54,560 –> 00:27:56,320
\nOK.
\nExactly. <\/p>\n
538
\n00:27:56,520 –> 00:28:00,200
\nSo compromise is really, though
\nI’m joking, But reality is <\/p>\n
539
\n00:28:00,200 –> 00:28:02,400
\ncompromise is essential because
\nwe come from different <\/p>\n
540
\n00:28:02,400 –> 00:28:04,840
\nbackgrounds and no matter how
\nmuch we love each other, we come<\/p>\n
541
\n00:28:04,840 –> 00:28:07,720
\nwith different baggage and we
\ncome with different baggage to <\/p>\n
542
\n00:28:07,720 –> 00:28:10,880
\nthe family, the marriage unit,
\nsome things we have to go. <\/p>\n
543
\n00:28:10,880 –> 00:28:12,200
\nThat doesn’t really matter that
\nmuch to me. <\/p>\n
544
\n00:28:12,200 –> 00:28:14,160
\nLet’s do it your way.
\nSometimes that really means a <\/p>\n
545
\n00:28:14,160 –> 00:28:16,600
\nlot to me and we have to find a
\nway to do it my way. <\/p>\n
546
\n00:28:16,600 –> 00:28:18,560
\nAnd sometimes it’s like neither
\none of us has a way. <\/p>\n
547
\n00:28:18,560 –> 00:28:21,400
\nLet’s make our way and we start
\ncompromising. <\/p>\n
548
\n00:28:21,400 –> 00:28:24,160
\nWell, compromise is not a bad
\nthing, but when you start <\/p>\n
549
\n00:28:24,160 –> 00:28:27,520
\ncompromising the values of God,
\nnow you’re in trouble. <\/p>\n
550
\n00:28:27,520 –> 00:28:30,560
\nSee what color the wall is?
\nIt doesn’t really matter who <\/p>\n
551
\n00:28:30,560 –> 00:28:32,080
\nwins that.
\nThat’s why she should win. <\/p>\n
552
\n00:28:33,560 –> 00:28:34,800
\nOh, I didn’t.
\nGet any laughs on that one? <\/p>\n
553
\n00:28:35,320 –> 00:28:36,760
\nAll right?
\nDoesn’t really. <\/p>\n
554
\n00:28:36,760 –> 00:28:40,240
\nMatter who wins that the House
\nis going to still stand we start<\/p>\n
555
\n00:28:40,240 –> 00:28:44,680
\ncompromising the things of God
\nthe promises of God the edicts <\/p>\n
556
\n00:28:44,680 –> 00:28:49,680
\nof the father now that marriage
\nis on very rocky ground oh and <\/p>\n
557
\n00:28:49,680 –> 00:28:53,720
\nthen anytime you start having
\nmarriage and compromise let’s <\/p>\n
558
\n00:28:53,720 –> 00:28:56,040
\nmake it easier and just have
\nsome children that makes it <\/p>\n
559
\n00:28:56,040 –> 00:28:58,720
\neasier right OK so let’s.
\nKeep that in mind. <\/p>\n
560
\n00:28:58,720 –> 00:29:01,680
\nSo here’s the math quiz clue.
\nThe prior number. <\/p>\n
561
\n00:29:01,680 –> 00:29:03,960
\nWe had was 500 now in.
\nVerse. <\/p>\n
562
\n00:29:03,960 –> 00:29:07,080
\nThree we have.
\nThere’s 120 years of warning. <\/p>\n
563
\n00:29:08,960 –> 00:29:10,960
\nKeep that thought 120 years of
\nwarning. <\/p>\n
564
\n00:29:12,320 –> 00:29:15,280
\nThen with before we go to the
\nthe magic number, we say, OK, <\/p>\n
565
\n00:29:15,520 –> 00:29:18,440
\nthere were giants in the earth
\nin those days, and after that <\/p>\n
566
\n00:29:18,440 –> 00:29:20,520
\nthe sons of God came to the
\ndaughters of men, bear them <\/p>\n
567
\n00:29:20,520 –> 00:29:23,000
\nchildren, and became mighty men,
\nwhich were men of old, men of <\/p>\n
568
\n00:29:23,000 –> 00:29:27,320
\nrenown, or in the Hebrew men of
\nrenown is the word shem, men of <\/p>\n
569
\n00:29:27,320 –> 00:29:29,240
\nthe name.
\nWhose name? <\/p>\n
570
\n00:29:30,360 –> 00:29:32,680
\nThat’s the problem.
\nThat’s why the missing <\/p>\n
571
\n00:29:32,680 –> 00:29:34,800
\ningredient of the name of the
\nfather is such a big deal. <\/p>\n
572
\n00:29:35,160 –> 00:29:37,160
\nJames Chapter.
\nTwo, verse 7 says, Do they not <\/p>\n
573
\n00:29:37,160 –> 00:29:39,800
\nblasphemy that worthy name by
\nwhich they are called? <\/p>\n
574
\n00:29:40,400 –> 00:29:43,800
\nSee, we are called to be part of
\na name, might be born into that <\/p>\n
575
\n00:29:43,800 –> 00:29:47,520
\nname, married into that name,
\nbaptized to that name. <\/p>\n
576
\n00:29:48,000 –> 00:29:50,160
\nWe are called to be part of the
\nname of the Father. <\/p>\n
577
\n00:29:51,080 –> 00:29:53,440
\nBut if we’re building.
\nA name for ourselves in a city <\/p>\n
578
\n00:29:53,440 –> 00:29:55,920
\nwith our own name.
\nNow we’ve got Genesis chapter 4 <\/p>\n
579
\n00:29:55,920 –> 00:29:57,640
\nand Genesis chapter 10 on the
\nhorizon. <\/p>\n
580
\n00:29:58,600 –> 00:30:00,280
\nWe’ve taken.
\nGod out of the mix. <\/p>\n
581
\n00:30:00,440 –> 00:30:01,920
\nThe name we’re building is for
\nourself. <\/p>\n
582
\n00:30:02,440 –> 00:30:05,480
\nIt’s shaky ground.
\nSo here, when the population is <\/p>\n
583
\n00:30:05,480 –> 00:30:08,560
\nbuilding things for their own
\nname, for their own pride, for <\/p>\n
584
\n00:30:08,560 –> 00:30:10,920
\ntheir own sake.
\nNo longer is. <\/p>\n
585
\n00:30:10,920 –> 00:30:14,000
\nGod part of the equation.
\nNow the word giants, the Hebrew <\/p>\n
586
\n00:30:14,000 –> 00:30:17,440
\nis the Nephilim.
\nThe only other usage is Numbers <\/p>\n
587
\n00:30:17,440 –> 00:30:21,280
\n13, and it’s used twice in verse
\n32 and verse 33. <\/p>\n
588
\n00:30:21,280 –> 00:30:23,000
\nSo we’ll look at that for a
\nminute. <\/p>\n
589
\n00:30:24,080 –> 00:30:25,280
\nThey brought an.
\nEvil Report. <\/p>\n
590
\n00:30:26,440 –> 00:30:27,880
\nThe land which?
\nThey had searched the children, <\/p>\n
591
\n00:30:27,880 –> 00:30:30,280
\nIsrael said.
\nThe land that we have gone is a <\/p>\n
592
\n00:30:30,280 –> 00:30:31,880
\nland that.
\nEateth up the inhabitants <\/p>\n
593
\n00:30:31,880 –> 00:30:33,320
\nthereof.
\nThe people that we saw are men <\/p>\n
594
\n00:30:33,320 –> 00:30:36,040
\nof great stratter.
\nWe saw giants and son of Anec. <\/p>\n
595
\n00:30:36,240 –> 00:30:38,480
\nSome of the giants were in their
\nside as grasshoppers. <\/p>\n
596
\n00:30:38,720 –> 00:30:40,920
\nWe were there in their sights.
\nWe had the people are. <\/p>\n
597
\n00:30:40,920 –> 00:30:44,040
\nReally big and mighty.
\nNow this. <\/p>\n
598
\n00:30:44,040 –> 00:30:46,600
\nRefers to men of war in the
\npromised land. <\/p>\n
599
\n00:30:46,600 –> 00:30:48,880
\nWe know the story, but it
\ndoesn’t necessarily mean they <\/p>\n
600
\n00:30:48,880 –> 00:30:50,760
\nwere big people.
\nYes, we have reference to some <\/p>\n
601
\n00:30:50,760 –> 00:30:54,360
\nbig people, but the problem is
\nthey were mighty and strong <\/p>\n
602
\n00:30:54,360 –> 00:30:57,600
\nwarriors.
\nSee, a giant is relative. <\/p>\n
603
\n00:30:58,480 –> 00:31:02,160
\nI’ll give you an example.
\nIn Japan today, I’m a giant. <\/p>\n
604
\n00:31:02,640 –> 00:31:06,080
\nI’m 6 foot four, 270 lbs.
\nOn an. <\/p>\n
605
\n00:31:06,080 –> 00:31:08,760
\nNFL offensive line.
\nI’m puny. <\/p>\n
606
\n00:31:09,440 –> 00:31:13,760
\nIt’s all relative.
\nMost NBA centers are about 7 <\/p>\n
607
\n00:31:13,760 –> 00:31:15,520
\nfoot tall or higher.
\nAgain. <\/p>\n
608
\n00:31:15,760 –> 00:31:18,160
\nHi, how you do it?
\nThat might be bigger than me. <\/p>\n
609
\n00:31:18,160 –> 00:31:21,360
\nRelative is a giant, so it
\ndoesn’t necessarily mean they <\/p>\n
610
\n00:31:21,360 –> 00:31:24,400
\nwere all 12 feet tall.
\nNo, they were bigger and <\/p>\n
611
\n00:31:24,400 –> 00:31:27,720
\nstronger than we are and that
\nmade them huge in perspective. <\/p>\n
612
\n00:31:28,680 –> 00:31:31,000
\nAndre the Giant was 7 foot four,
\n\u00a3500. <\/p>\n
613
\n00:31:31,000 –> 00:31:33,120
\nIn case you’re keeping score and
\ntrying to compare me, he had me <\/p>\n
614
\n00:31:33,120 –> 00:31:35,800
\nbeat by a few pounds.
\nThe Israelites. <\/p>\n
615
\n00:31:35,800 –> 00:31:39,840
\nWere scared because their faith
\nwas in their flesh, not in the. <\/p>\n
616
\n00:31:39,840 –> 00:31:43,360
\nFather and as a result.
\nThey missed out. <\/p>\n
617
\n00:31:43,360 –> 00:31:44,960
\nOn the Promise, at least
\ninitially. <\/p>\n
618
\n00:31:45,320 –> 00:31:48,200
\nWell, who wrote Genesis?
\nMoses. <\/p>\n
619
\n00:31:48,200 –> 00:31:51,040
\nAnother tie in.
\nSo here in Genesis chapter 4 we <\/p>\n
620
\n00:31:51,040 –> 00:31:53,560
\nhave Moses commentary.
\nThis happens a lot. <\/p>\n
621
\n00:31:53,560 –> 00:31:56,240
\nIn Genesis Record, where it’s
\nnot actually the thoughts of the<\/p>\n
622
\n00:31:56,240 –> 00:31:58,400
\npeople, it’s a commentary on
\nMoses. <\/p>\n
623
\n00:31:59,400 –> 00:32:00,800
\nYou can see that in a number of
\nplaces. <\/p>\n
624
\n00:32:00,800 –> 00:32:02,160
\nWe’ll we’ll call out a couple in
\na minute. <\/p>\n
625
\n00:32:03,440 –> 00:32:05,200
\nSo.
\nThey were mighty warriors. <\/p>\n
626
\n00:32:05,520 –> 00:32:08,720
\nAnd we see that the sons of God,
\nthose following the way of. <\/p>\n
627
\n00:32:08,720 –> 00:32:11,040
\nGod, the line of Venus versus
\nthe daughter of man. <\/p>\n
628
\n00:32:11,040 –> 00:32:14,120
\nAgain, singular Adam in the
\nHebrew going the line of the <\/p>\n
629
\n00:32:14,120 –> 00:32:17,600
\nflesh, the way of Cain.
\nWe have the compromise of life <\/p>\n
630
\n00:32:17,600 –> 00:32:19,160
\nchoices in a distance from the
\nfather. <\/p>\n
631
\n00:32:19,960 –> 00:32:23,320
\nNow I want to pay particularly
\nattention to the timing. <\/p>\n
632
\n00:32:23,680 –> 00:32:27,600
\nThey get farther away from God,
\ncloser to the world around them,<\/p>\n
633
\n00:32:27,800 –> 00:32:29,480
\nand they decide to have
\nchildren. <\/p>\n
634
\n00:32:29,960 –> 00:32:31,720
\nThis is a.
\nRecipe for disaster. <\/p>\n
635
\n00:32:31,880 –> 00:32:34,640
\nAny one of our children going
\ndown this path, we go time out. <\/p>\n
636
\n00:32:34,640 –> 00:32:36,080
\nThis is bad.
\nWe can see it coming. <\/p>\n
637
\n00:32:36,560 –> 00:32:38,400
\nSo much harder to see it when
\nit’s your thinking. <\/p>\n
638
\n00:32:39,360 –> 00:32:41,720
\nNow the Hebrew calls the mighty
\nmen of the name. <\/p>\n
639
\n00:32:41,720 –> 00:32:44,920
\nWhat name?
\nWell #16 and two, I think gives <\/p>\n
640
\n00:32:44,920 –> 00:32:47,960
\nus a little bit of a hint.
\nThey rose up. <\/p>\n
641
\n00:32:47,960 –> 00:32:51,840
\nBefore Moses with certain
\nchildren of Israel. 250 Princess<\/p>\n
642
\n00:32:51,840 –> 00:32:53,760
\nof the Assembly, famous in the
\ncongregation. <\/p>\n
643
\n00:32:54,040 –> 00:32:58,000
\nMen of the name.
\nWho were they and. <\/p>\n
644
\n00:32:58,000 –> 00:33:00,440
\nWhat did they do?
\nVerse one tells us Cora, Dathan <\/p>\n
645
\n00:33:00,440 –> 00:33:02,680
\nand Byram.
\nVerse 3 says they gathered <\/p>\n
646
\n00:33:02,680 –> 00:33:05,400
\nthemselves together against
\nMoses and Aaron, so they were <\/p>\n
647
\n00:33:05,400 –> 00:33:08,120
\nchallenging.
\nThe authority of God and his <\/p>\n
648
\n00:33:08,120 –> 00:33:10,600
\nappointed servants.
\nIt was not about. <\/p>\n
649
\n00:33:10,600 –> 00:33:12,840
\nGod now it was about them being
\nright. <\/p>\n
650
\n00:33:12,840 –> 00:33:15,800
\nAnd this can happen in any
\necclesia, just as it did in the <\/p>\n
651
\n00:33:15,800 –> 00:33:18,440
\necclesia in the wilderness.
\nThe men of their own name in <\/p>\n
652
\n00:33:18,440 –> 00:33:20,600
\npride are no longer the men of
\nGod. <\/p>\n
653
\n00:33:21,160 –> 00:33:23,160
\nTower of Babel, Great reference
\nto this. <\/p>\n
654
\n00:33:23,160 –> 00:33:25,480
\nIt’s the next story after Noah,
\nand we’ll look at it in our <\/p>\n
655
\n00:33:25,480 –> 00:33:27,800
\nintermission.
\nLet’s look at first. <\/p>\n
656
\n00:33:27,800 –> 00:33:29,600
\nJohn, we’ve already said this
\nout loud. <\/p>\n
657
\n00:33:29,600 –> 00:33:30,840
\nWe may as well put it on the
\nscreen. <\/p>\n
658
\n00:33:31,720 –> 00:33:34,280
\nObvious ties to Genesis chapter
\n3. <\/p>\n
659
\n00:33:35,680 –> 00:33:37,400
\nWe can.
\nSee this all the way back into <\/p>\n
660
\n00:33:37,400 –> 00:33:39,760
\nthe Garden of Eden.
\nThis is the. <\/p>\n
661
\n00:33:39,760 –> 00:33:42,680
\nKey that we want to make sure we
\nunderstand for our own purposes <\/p>\n
662
\n00:33:43,040 –> 00:33:47,120
\nif we love the cosmos.
\nThe order of. <\/p>\n
663
\n00:33:47,120 –> 00:33:50,080
\nThings that we see in this
\nworld, there’s no room for the <\/p>\n
664
\n00:33:50,080 –> 00:33:52,640
\nlover of love of the Father in
\nus, so we have. <\/p>\n
665
\n00:33:52,640 –> 00:33:56,520
\nTo purge the things of the.
\nFlesh to make room for the love <\/p>\n
666
\n00:33:56,520 –> 00:33:59,240
\nof the Father.
\nThe world passeth away in the <\/p>\n
667
\n00:33:59,240 –> 00:34:01,960
\nlust thereof, but he that doeth
\nthe will of God abideth forever.<\/p>\n
668
\n00:34:02,320 –> 00:34:04,440
\nAnd now?
\nYou’re going to find out very <\/p>\n
669
\n00:34:04,440 –> 00:34:08,719
\nquickly, maybe right now, that
\nI’m a Tabernacle geek. <\/p>\n
670
\n00:34:09,440 –> 00:34:11,520
\nSo.
\nYou might be there with me. <\/p>\n
671
\n00:34:11,600 –> 00:34:15,159
\nI have Tabernacle Itis.
\nI see it everywhere in the <\/p>\n
672
\n00:34:15,159 –> 00:34:16,440
\nBible.
\nAnd. <\/p>\n
673
\n00:34:16,440 –> 00:34:19,960
\nEvery time I see words like
\ndwell or abide, I mean the <\/p>\n
674
\n00:34:19,960 –> 00:34:23,040
\nTabernacle ones obviously, but
\ndwell and abide get my attention<\/p>\n
675
\n00:34:23,560 –> 00:34:28,760
\nbecause the purpose of our
\nFather by extension into his <\/p>\n
676
\n00:34:28,760 –> 00:34:34,199
\nfamily is that we might as his
\nchildren, dwell with the Father <\/p>\n
677
\n00:34:34,360 –> 00:34:37,840
\nand the Son forever.
\nThe concept of the Tabernacle is<\/p>\n
678
\n00:34:37,840 –> 00:34:42,000
\nset in order for you and I to
\nsee us in the Kingdom briefly. <\/p>\n
679
\n00:34:42,000 –> 00:34:45,520
\nI love pictures that have the
\ncamp around the Tabernacle. <\/p>\n
680
\n00:34:46,239 –> 00:34:48,760
\nBecause our.
\nGod could have put a Moat around<\/p>\n
681
\n00:34:48,760 –> 00:34:51,639
\na castle on the top of the hill
\nwith barbed wire for people to <\/p>\n
682
\n00:34:51,639 –> 00:34:53,719
\nlook up and say, hey, there’s
\nwhere our God dwells. <\/p>\n
683
\n00:34:54,360 –> 00:34:58,160
\nBut he doesn’t.
\nHe puts high accessibility and <\/p>\n
684
\n00:34:58,160 –> 00:35:01,720
\nsays I want to dwell in the
\nmidst of my children. <\/p>\n
685
\n00:35:01,920 –> 00:35:05,160
\nI want them to be encamped
\naround me that I might dwell <\/p>\n
686
\n00:35:05,160 –> 00:35:07,680
\nwith them.
\nAnd then he uses body part words<\/p>\n
687
\n00:35:07,680 –> 00:35:11,520
\nto describe the decoration and
\nthe creation of the Tabernacle <\/p>\n
688
\n00:35:11,520 –> 00:35:13,080
\nwhere other Hebrew words
\napplied. <\/p>\n
689
\n00:35:13,640 –> 00:35:16,680
\nI mean, you ever noticed that we
\nhave the mouth, the lips, the <\/p>\n
690
\n00:35:16,680 –> 00:35:19,920
\nribs, skin, all these things?
\nThere were other Hebrew words to<\/p>\n
691
\n00:35:19,920 –> 00:35:22,640
\ndescribe the building of the
\nTabernacle, but in his <\/p>\n
692
\n00:35:22,800 –> 00:35:26,280
\ninspiration he wanted us to see
\nourselves in that. <\/p>\n
693
\n00:35:27,800 –> 00:35:29,200
\nIf we want to.
\nBe part of the will of the <\/p>\n
694
\n00:35:29,200 –> 00:35:31,440
\nFather forever.
\nHe wants to abide with us <\/p>\n
695
\n00:35:31,440 –> 00:35:33,560
\nforever.
\nAnd that’s the message we’ll <\/p>\n
696
\n00:35:33,560 –> 00:35:35,240
\nwe’ll do a little bit later in
\nthe week. <\/p>\n
697
\n00:35:35,240 –> 00:35:37,760
\nWe’ll play with some Tabernacle
\nstuff, but that least hopefully <\/p>\n
698
\n00:35:37,760 –> 00:35:41,120
\nwets your wets your appetite.
\nAll right. <\/p>\n
699
\n00:35:41,120 –> 00:35:44,360
\nVerse 5 God saw the wickedness
\nthat was great in the earth, and<\/p>\n
700
\n00:35:44,360 –> 00:35:47,040
\nthat the imagination of the
\nthoughts of the heart were only <\/p>\n
701
\n00:35:47,040 –> 00:35:50,000
\nevil continually.
\nDivine. <\/p>\n
702
\n00:35:50,000 –> 00:35:53,760
\nInspection and commentary.
\nGod saw, He’s inspected, and now<\/p>\n
703
\n00:35:53,760 –> 00:35:55,560
\nhe’s giving us his summary
\nversion. <\/p>\n
704
\n00:35:56,000 –> 00:36:01,040
\nAll of this evil perpetually.
\nHe’d seen this all along. <\/p>\n
705
\n00:36:01,160 –> 00:36:03,960
\nNow it was time for action.
\nThe majority? <\/p>\n
706
\n00:36:03,960 –> 00:36:08,080
\nOf population was ignoring his
\nestablished order of things and <\/p>\n
707
\n00:36:08,080 –> 00:36:12,120
\npreferring their own order.
\nWhat’s the epitaph to the <\/p>\n
708
\n00:36:12,120 –> 00:36:16,280
\njudges?
\nDid. <\/p>\n
709
\n00:36:16,280 –> 00:36:18,200
\nEveryone did that which was
\nright in their own eyes. <\/p>\n
710
\n00:36:18,200 –> 00:36:20,560
\nLet me ask you a question.
\nHow many of you intentionally do<\/p>\n
711
\n00:36:20,560 –> 00:36:23,240
\nthat which is wrong in your own
\neyes like it’s your goal? <\/p>\n
712
\n00:36:24,480 –> 00:36:25,520
\nSo we read.
\nThat we go. <\/p>\n
713
\n00:36:25,680 –> 00:36:27,320
\nEveryone did that which is right
\nin their own eyes. <\/p>\n
714
\n00:36:27,320 –> 00:36:29,760
\nThose silly fools.
\nWait a minute. <\/p>\n
715
\n00:36:30,800 –> 00:36:32,400
\nI think that’s what I do.
\nYeah, exactly. <\/p>\n
716
\n00:36:32,400 –> 00:36:35,080
\nThat’s why it’s recorded for our
\nlearning, so that when we see <\/p>\n
717
\n00:36:35,080 –> 00:36:38,560
\nthem, we see us.
\nWe see us as a people if we <\/p>\n
718
\n00:36:38,560 –> 00:36:41,920
\ndon’t acknowledge the
\nsovereignty of our King in the <\/p>\n
719
\n00:36:41,920 –> 00:36:44,880
\nlife that we live and do what is
\nright in our own eyes. <\/p>\n
720
\n00:36:44,880 –> 00:36:46,760
\nWe are no different than
\nwandering Israel in the time <\/p>\n
721
\n00:36:46,760 –> 00:36:49,480
\nperiod of the judges.
\nGood news for them and us is <\/p>\n
722
\n00:36:49,480 –> 00:36:52,280
\nthey could go back and go, wait
\na minute, we need to redirect <\/p>\n
723
\n00:36:52,480 –> 00:36:55,040
\nand a strong leader came up and
\nhelped them go that direction <\/p>\n
724
\n00:36:55,280 –> 00:36:57,720
\nand they served God all the days
\nof the elder of Joshua and the <\/p>\n
725
\n00:36:57,720 –> 00:36:59,880
\nelders that overlived Joshua.
\nYou all, you know all these <\/p>\n
726
\n00:36:59,880 –> 00:37:01,320
\nverses.
\nThe point is. <\/p>\n
727
\n00:37:02,320 –> 00:37:04,160
\nThey did that which.
\nIs right in their own eyes. <\/p>\n
728
\n00:37:04,480 –> 00:37:07,880
\nNothing wrong with that.
\nUntil you take the Father out. <\/p>\n
729
\n00:37:07,880 –> 00:37:11,920
\nBecause if all I see is what the
\nflesh is showing me, I am living<\/p>\n
730
\n00:37:11,920 –> 00:37:13,800
\nthe life of the judges.
\nBut. <\/p>\n
731
\n00:37:13,800 –> 00:37:16,240
\nIf I am.
\nLetting God’s Word penetrate my <\/p>\n
732
\n00:37:16,240 –> 00:37:20,160
\nthinking and alter my vision.
\nIt’s not what’s right in my eyes<\/p>\n
733
\n00:37:20,160 –> 00:37:22,000
\nnow.
\nIt’s what is right in the eyes <\/p>\n
734
\n00:37:22,000 –> 00:37:24,480
\nof the Father.
\nAnd what Father doesn’t want to <\/p>\n
735
\n00:37:24,480 –> 00:37:28,240
\nsee His children see the things
\nHe sees and learn and grow from <\/p>\n
736
\n00:37:28,240 –> 00:37:30,080
\nthem?
\nThat’s what’s. <\/p>\n
737
\n00:37:30,080 –> 00:37:33,800
\nOn the table.
\nJeremiah. 19 and 9 says the <\/p>\n
738
\n00:37:33,800 –> 00:37:36,720
\nheart is deceitful above all
\nthings, and desperately wicked. <\/p>\n
739
\n00:37:37,200 –> 00:37:41,120
\nWho can know it for the time
\nperiod they they felt that the <\/p>\n
740
\n00:37:41,320 –> 00:37:45,280
\nthe seed of thinking was the
\nheart didn’t know what the brain<\/p>\n
741
\n00:37:45,280 –> 00:37:47,440
\nwas yet.
\nSo the. <\/p>\n
742
\n00:37:47,440 –> 00:37:53,160
\nThinking of mankind is deceitful
\nand desperately wicked. <\/p>\n
743
\n00:37:53,480 –> 00:37:58,360
\nWe are so good at self delusion.
\nWe are so. <\/p>\n
744
\n00:37:58,360 –> 00:37:59,680
\nGood at it.
\nIt’s easier to pick out in <\/p>\n
745
\n00:37:59,680 –> 00:38:01,240
\nothers.
\nIt’s a lot more fun to pick out <\/p>\n
746
\n00:38:01,240 –> 00:38:02,840
\nin others for sure.
\nBut we are. <\/p>\n
747
\n00:38:02,840 –> 00:38:05,400
\nReally good at convincing
\nourselves what we want to do is <\/p>\n
748
\n00:38:05,400 –> 00:38:07,720
\nwrite.
\nBoy, that is a dangerous way to <\/p>\n
749
\n00:38:07,720 –> 00:38:09,680
\nstudy your Bible.
\nIf you go to the. <\/p>\n
750
\n00:38:09,680 –> 00:38:11,520
\nBible and you’re looking for
\nwhat does it say? <\/p>\n
751
\n00:38:11,640 –> 00:38:14,400
\nAnd follow your study to see
\nwhat God’s teaching you. <\/p>\n
752
\n00:38:14,920 –> 00:38:17,600
\nSometimes you find out you’ve
\nbeen wrong for a long time. <\/p>\n
753
\n00:38:17,840 –> 00:38:20,600
\nIt’s very refreshing, actually.
\nIt’s a little frustrating <\/p>\n
754
\n00:38:20,600 –> 00:38:22,040
\nsometimes, but it is very
\nrefreshing. <\/p>\n
755
\n00:38:22,320 –> 00:38:24,960
\nBut if you only go to the Bible
\nlooking for evidence that what <\/p>\n
756
\n00:38:24,960 –> 00:38:28,880
\ntheory you have is right, you’re
\nin danger because you’re going <\/p>\n
757
\n00:38:28,880 –> 00:38:30,360
\nto find something.
\nYou’re going to latch onto it <\/p>\n
758
\n00:38:30,360 –> 00:38:32,680
\nlike it’s proof.
\nBut you’re not letting. <\/p>\n
759
\n00:38:32,680 –> 00:38:35,200
\nGod guide your thinking.
\nNow you’re trying to God guide <\/p>\n
760
\n00:38:35,200 –> 00:38:38,480
\nthe thinking of God, and none of
\nus would intentionally do that. <\/p>\n
761
\n00:38:39,400 –> 00:38:41,360
\nBut all of us.
\nAre naturally inclined to do it,<\/p>\n
762
\n00:38:41,360 –> 00:38:45,160
\nand if we’re not careful, we go
\nto the Bible for support and <\/p>\n
763
\n00:38:45,160 –> 00:38:47,800
\nevidence of our thinking, not to
\nreveal His thinking. <\/p>\n
764
\n00:38:48,040 –> 00:38:51,760
\nVery subtle difference, but it
\nis the difference between me as <\/p>\n
765
\n00:38:51,760 –> 00:38:55,280
\na person, us as an ecclesial
\ncommunity, getting closer to the<\/p>\n
766
\n00:38:55,280 –> 00:38:57,400
\nthinking of the Father and doing
\nthings His way. <\/p>\n
767
\n00:38:58,480 –> 00:39:00,040
\nOr following.
\nAfter my own flesh and doing <\/p>\n
768
\n00:39:00,040 –> 00:39:01,400
\nwhat I think is right in my own
\neyes. <\/p>\n
769
\n00:39:02,680 –> 00:39:03,880
\nIt’s that big.
\nOf a deal. <\/p>\n
770
\n00:39:04,480 –> 00:39:08,240
\nWe look at our day.
\nWe’re surrounded by news. <\/p>\n
771
\n00:39:09,400 –> 00:39:12,680
\nSocial.
\nMedia, anything that wants to <\/p>\n
772
\n00:39:12,680 –> 00:39:15,680
\nget our attention for the flesh,
\nwe can have access to it. <\/p>\n
773
\n00:39:15,680 –> 00:39:17,840
\nMost of us have them in our
\npockets or on our table. <\/p>\n
774
\n00:39:17,840 –> 00:39:22,040
\nNow I understand the power of
\nthe phone and the connectivity <\/p>\n
775
\n00:39:22,040 –> 00:39:24,680
\nthat can get and the value it
\ncan bring. <\/p>\n
776
\n00:39:25,560 –> 00:39:28,120
\nAnd the disgrace that can
\nhappen, we have to be. <\/p>\n
777
\n00:39:28,120 –> 00:39:31,120
\nCareful that we don’t let the
\nthinking of the world penetrate <\/p>\n
778
\n00:39:31,120 –> 00:39:34,520
\nour hearts and minds so far that
\nwe can’t even see it when it’s <\/p>\n
779
\n00:39:34,520 –> 00:39:41,760
\nhappening.
\nVerse 6 It repented Yahweh that <\/p>\n
780
\n00:39:41,760 –> 00:39:45,480
\nhe made man on the earth, and it
\ngrieved him in his heart, the <\/p>\n
781
\n00:39:45,480 –> 00:39:48,760
\nRSV says, and the Lord was
\nsorry. <\/p>\n
782
\n00:39:50,080 –> 00:39:53,640
\nHe was sorry.
\nThat he had made man this is a <\/p>\n
783
\n00:39:53,640 –> 00:39:58,760
\nfather disappointed.
\nHis name has been disgraced and <\/p>\n
784
\n00:39:58,760 –> 00:40:00,800
\nhe looks.
\nAt the divine inspection and <\/p>\n
785
\n00:40:00,800 –> 00:40:04,880
\ncomes to the conclusion.
\nI should have, I never should <\/p>\n
786
\n00:40:04,880 –> 00:40:07,720
\nhave started with these people.
\nWhat a sad. <\/p>\n
787
\n00:40:07,720 –> 00:40:10,720
\nThing for a father to say of his
\nown household. <\/p>\n
788
\n00:40:11,720 –> 00:40:14,000
\nSo why did?
\nGod create mankind in the 1st <\/p>\n
789
\n00:40:14,000 –> 00:40:15,680
\nplace.
\nI mean, he gave Adam and Eve <\/p>\n
790
\n00:40:15,680 –> 00:40:17,880
\nfree will, which means he knew
\nthey’d disappoint him so it <\/p>\n
791
\n00:40:17,880 –> 00:40:20,880
\nwasn’t a shock when they did.
\nHe could have created him <\/p>\n
792
\n00:40:20,880 –> 00:40:24,160
\nwithout free will and spared all
\nof this but the thing that the <\/p>\n
793
\n00:40:24,160 –> 00:40:27,200
\nFather wants from us.
\nIs the free? <\/p>\n
794
\n00:40:27,200 –> 00:40:30,080
\nWill offering of our love.
\nAnd the willingness. <\/p>\n
795
\n00:40:30,080 –> 00:40:35,080
\nTo be part of His love forever.
\nAnd we can’t give Him that if He<\/p>\n
796
\n00:40:35,080 –> 00:40:38,360
\ndoesn’t give us the opportunity
\nto disappoint Him and disrespect<\/p>\n
797
\n00:40:38,360 –> 00:40:42,840
\nHim.
\nWhich means for the handful that<\/p>\n
798
\n00:40:42,840 –> 00:40:47,880
\nwill be in the Kingdom, the
\nremnant, our God is willing to <\/p>\n
799
\n00:40:47,920 –> 00:40:51,800
\nendure the tragedy of the
\nmillions or billions that will <\/p>\n
800
\n00:40:51,800 –> 00:40:53,960
\nnot be in the Kingdom, that have
\nno interest in the Father. <\/p>\n
801
\n00:40:54,920 –> 00:40:57,760
\nThat’s how precious this price
\ntag is to Him. <\/p>\n
802
\n00:40:59,200 –> 00:41:01,560
\nWhy did he create?
\nMankind in the 1st place, what <\/p>\n
803
\n00:41:01,560 –> 00:41:03,680
\nwas His purpose?
\nWe all know this verse. <\/p>\n
804
\n00:41:03,800 –> 00:41:05,640
\nYou’re probably saying it in
\nyour head right now. <\/p>\n
805
\n00:41:06,440 –> 00:41:09,120
\nTruly, as I live, all the years
\nshall be filled with the glory <\/p>\n
806
\n00:41:09,120 –> 00:41:11,000
\nof God.
\nIt’s His stated purpose. <\/p>\n
807
\n00:41:11,760 –> 00:41:14,240
\nSo the question.
\nIs what are we doing right now <\/p>\n
808
\n00:41:14,240 –> 00:41:18,360
\nto represent the glory of the
\nFather in our life? <\/p>\n
809
\n00:41:19,280 –> 00:41:22,920
\nWhat am I?
\nDoing right now to be part of <\/p>\n
810
\n00:41:22,920 –> 00:41:27,600
\nthat glory to in some small
\nmeasure, be a representation of <\/p>\n
811
\n00:41:27,600 –> 00:41:30,960
\nthe Father.
\nTo all I come in contact with. <\/p>\n
812
\n00:41:31,840 –> 00:41:33,160
\nThe objective.
\nWas glory. <\/p>\n
813
\n00:41:33,400 –> 00:41:36,000
\nHe saw the corruption and
\nviolence, which we’ll talk about<\/p>\n
814
\n00:41:36,000 –> 00:41:38,800
\ntomorrow.
\nPeople following their own way <\/p>\n
815
\n00:41:38,800 –> 00:41:41,040
\non a broad path that leads to
\ndestruction. <\/p>\n
816
\n00:41:41,640 –> 00:41:45,280
\nThat’s what he saw and it was
\nexactly opposite of what he <\/p>\n
817
\n00:41:45,280 –> 00:41:50,120
\nwanted, so he says.
\nI will destroy man, whom I’ve <\/p>\n
818
\n00:41:50,120 –> 00:41:52,640
\ncreated from the face of the
\nearth, both man and beast. <\/p>\n
819
\n00:41:53,120 –> 00:41:55,720
\nCreeping.
\nThing fowls of the air, for it <\/p>\n
820
\n00:41:55,720 –> 00:41:57,280
\nrepented me that I have made
\nthem. <\/p>\n
821
\n00:41:58,520 –> 00:42:00,960
\nNow the word.
\nDestroy the RSV has blot out. <\/p>\n
822
\n00:42:01,680 –> 00:42:05,720
\nI will blot out man.
\nSee the time. <\/p>\n
823
\n00:42:05,720 –> 00:42:08,720
\nFor repentance has passed.
\nThis is the judgment of the <\/p>\n
824
\n00:42:08,720 –> 00:42:10,960
\nFather.
\nIt’s no longer an opportunity to<\/p>\n
825
\n00:42:10,960 –> 00:42:13,480
\nwake up, smell the coffee and
\nget your life back in order. <\/p>\n
826
\n00:42:13,960 –> 00:42:18,400
\nThe time is up, and so he is.
\nGoing to reverse the order of <\/p>\n
827
\n00:42:18,400 –> 00:42:20,000
\ncreation.
\nAnd if you go through what we <\/p>\n
828
\n00:42:20,000 –> 00:42:22,280
\njust read, we’re going to see
\nit’s a reverse order of Genesis <\/p>\n
829
\n00:42:22,280 –> 00:42:26,000
\nchapter one.
\nThis is God’s message to Noah. <\/p>\n
830
\n00:42:27,440 –> 00:42:29,640
\nHe says I.
\nWill destroy man whom I’ve <\/p>\n
831
\n00:42:29,640 –> 00:42:31,400
\ncreated.
\nBecause I’m. <\/p>\n
832
\n00:42:31,600 –> 00:42:34,880
\nRepentant that I have made them
\nAmos 3. <\/p>\n
833
\n00:42:34,880 –> 00:42:37,320
\nAnd seven says, surely the Lord
\nGod will do nothing, but he <\/p>\n
834
\n00:42:37,320 –> 00:42:40,080
\nrevealeth his secret to his
\nservants, the prophets. <\/p>\n
835
\n00:42:40,080 –> 00:42:44,400
\nAnd so here our God is giving
\nsome insight to a man and his. <\/p>\n
836
\n00:42:44,400 –> 00:42:47,760
\nWife of what he’s?
\nAbout to do. <\/p>\n
837
\n00:42:49,160 –> 00:42:50,280
\nNot to.
\nTerrify them. <\/p>\n
838
\n00:42:51,000 –> 00:42:53,280
\nBut in every.
\nTragic act of the father. <\/p>\n
839
\n00:42:53,280 –> 00:42:56,800
\nThere is hope, and this is the
\nhope that’s being delivered. <\/p>\n
840
\n00:42:57,360 –> 00:42:59,560
\nWe saw it.
\nIn Hebrews 11 and 7 already. <\/p>\n
841
\n00:42:59,560 –> 00:43:02,000
\nI want to go back to that just a
\nmoment. <\/p>\n
842
\n00:43:04,760 –> 00:43:07,360
\nHe is.
\nAcknowledged in Hebrews 11 and <\/p>\n
843
\n00:43:07,360 –> 00:43:10,840
\nseven that he was being warned
\nof God, of things not seen yet. <\/p>\n
844
\n00:43:11,480 –> 00:43:14,360
\nGod is giving him a warning, and
\nwe’ll talk about that in more <\/p>\n
845
\n00:43:14,360 –> 00:43:18,480
\ndetail tomorrow, but he’s giving
\nhim a very specific warning. <\/p>\n
846
\n00:43:19,120 –> 00:43:23,840
\nWhat is Noah’s response to the
\nwarning of the signs of the <\/p>\n
847
\n00:43:23,840 –> 00:43:27,240
\ntimes in his day?
\nMood with. <\/p>\n
848
\n00:43:27,240 –> 00:43:29,600
\nFear.
\nAnd prepared. <\/p>\n
849
\n00:43:29,600 –> 00:43:32,520
\nA means to save his house.
\nAnd by. <\/p>\n
850
\n00:43:32,520 –> 00:43:35,320
\nDoing that, he had to condemn
\nthe world because that was the <\/p>\n
851
\n00:43:35,320 –> 00:43:39,360
\nexact opposite of everything
\naround him in the world, in the <\/p>\n
852
\n00:43:39,360 –> 00:43:42,560
\necclesia and in his family.
\nThat’s all he. <\/p>\n
853
\n00:43:42,560 –> 00:43:45,560
\nHad.
\nWe have been. <\/p>\n
854
\n00:43:45,560 –> 00:43:48,680
\nWarned that the time of the
\nLord’s coming is upon us. <\/p>\n
855
\n00:43:49,680 –> 00:43:51,440
\nWhat is our?
\nResponse. <\/p>\n
856
\n00:43:53,040 –> 00:43:56,320
\nThe time is now.
\nWe have time to repent and <\/p>\n
857
\n00:43:56,320 –> 00:44:00,000
\nchange.
\nHow do we respond to that Is <\/p>\n
858
\n00:44:00,000 –> 00:44:03,720
\neverything?
\nPut aside your plans for a <\/p>\n
859
\n00:44:03,720 –> 00:44:05,560
\nminute.
\nPut aside. <\/p>\n
860
\n00:44:05,560 –> 00:44:09,800
\nWhat you’re going to do when you
\nget home from Bible school and <\/p>\n
861
\n00:44:09,800 –> 00:44:12,000
\nask yourself this question
\nInside not out. <\/p>\n
862
\n00:44:12,040 –> 00:44:14,640
\nThis is the inside voice.
\nWhat? <\/p>\n
863
\n00:44:14,760 –> 00:44:19,640
\nAm I actually doing right now to
\nbe numbered amongst the <\/p>\n
864
\n00:44:19,640 –> 00:44:22,280
\nfaithful?
\nNot what I’m going. <\/p>\n
865
\n00:44:22,280 –> 00:44:24,880
\nTo do not what I used to do, not
\nwhat I could have done. <\/p>\n
866
\n00:44:26,040 –> 00:44:29,000
\nWhat am I?
\nDoing right now to be numbered <\/p>\n
867
\n00:44:29,000 –> 00:44:32,080
\namongst the faithful.
\nIf you don’t like your answer, <\/p>\n
868
\n00:44:32,960 –> 00:44:34,480
\nyou’re breathing and you can
\nchange. <\/p>\n
869
\n00:44:35,120 –> 00:44:38,920
\nThe more often we ask those
\nreflective questions, the closer<\/p>\n
870
\n00:44:38,920 –> 00:44:40,840
\nwe can get to the thinking of
\nthe Father. <\/p>\n
871
\n00:44:41,080 –> 00:44:45,040
\nBecause His define inspection we
\nhave access to. <\/p>\n
872
\n00:44:45,200 –> 00:44:47,320
\nWe can do it all the time.
\nWe say it every week. <\/p>\n
873
\n00:44:47,320 –> 00:44:50,880
\nLet a man examine himself,
\nbecause if we look at ourselves <\/p>\n
874
\n00:44:50,880 –> 00:44:53,560
\nthe way that God looks at us, we
\ncan do two things. <\/p>\n
875
\n00:44:54,120 –> 00:44:57,000
\nWe can be critical of the sin
\nthat we try to hide, but we know<\/p>\n
876
\n00:44:57,000 –> 00:45:00,160
\nit’s there and we can see past
\nthe Sinner. <\/p>\n
877
\n00:45:00,960 –> 00:45:03,720
\nAnd look to the.
\nGlory of what God can do with us<\/p>\n
878
\n00:45:03,960 –> 00:45:06,480
\nif we let him.
\nThat’s how our God sees us. <\/p>\n
879
\n00:45:06,480 –> 00:45:10,160
\nThat’s why he can look past our
\nsin, because He knows we are the<\/p>\n
880
\n00:45:10,160 –> 00:45:11,800
\nmiserable creatures we know we
\nare. <\/p>\n
881
\n00:45:12,320 –> 00:45:16,720
\nBut He can see glory beyond
\nthat, and using the lens of the <\/p>\n
882
\n00:45:16,720 –> 00:45:20,080
\nFather to inspect their own life
\ngives us a chance to put those <\/p>\n
883
\n00:45:20,080 –> 00:45:23,480
\nthings in order so that when his
\ninspection comes, we’re. <\/p>\n
884
\n00:45:23,480 –> 00:45:26,480
\nReady because we’ve.
\nHeeded the warning and acted. <\/p>\n
885
\n00:45:28,400 –> 00:45:29,680
\nLet’s look at the.
\nEnd of the verse. <\/p>\n
886
\n00:45:32,680 –> 00:45:35,200
\nHe’s going to.
\nMove man beast creeping thing <\/p>\n
887
\n00:45:35,200 –> 00:45:37,360
\nfouls the air and repented that
\nhe made them. <\/p>\n
888
\n00:45:37,360 –> 00:45:39,800
\nAnd I want to make sure we get
\nthis point because it’s a very <\/p>\n
889
\n00:45:39,800 –> 00:45:42,200
\nstrong point in the beginning
\nchapters of Genesis. <\/p>\n
890
\n00:45:43,080 –> 00:45:46,240
\nThe animals are amoral.
\nThey are not capable of sin. <\/p>\n
891
\n00:45:46,240 –> 00:45:49,360
\nGod did not look down and say
\nthat squirrel is nasty, He’s got<\/p>\n
892
\n00:45:49,360 –> 00:45:52,600
\nto go.
\nThe animals are not the problem.<\/p>\n
893
\n00:45:52,800 –> 00:45:58,280
\nThe animals have been condemned
\nbecause of their proximity to <\/p>\n
894
\n00:45:58,280 –> 00:46:01,600
\nthe sinning human population.
\nThey are guilty by association. <\/p>\n
895
\n00:46:01,880 –> 00:46:05,640
\nGod’s not after the animals.
\nHere the focus is on the human <\/p>\n
896
\n00:46:05,640 –> 00:46:09,040
\nbeings on the planet.
\nWho had contaminated God’s glory<\/p>\n
897
\n00:46:09,280 –> 00:46:12,560
\nby disrespecting and
\ndisregarding the Father and. <\/p>\n
898
\n00:46:12,560 –> 00:46:15,360
\nSo when we look at this pool of
\nnastiness that the Father is <\/p>\n
899
\n00:46:15,360 –> 00:46:19,920
\nlooking at, in the middle of
\nthat inspection, we have this <\/p>\n
900
\n00:46:19,920 –> 00:46:24,640
\nverse.
\nBut Noah found grace. <\/p>\n
901
\n00:46:25,320 –> 00:46:28,240
\nIn the eyes of the Lord.
\nWhat an. <\/p>\n
902
\n00:46:28,320 –> 00:46:32,400
\nEpitaph, that is.
\nCan you imagine having that been<\/p>\n
903
\n00:46:32,400 –> 00:46:36,600
\nsaid of you in these last days?
\nThe inspection was awful. <\/p>\n
904
\n00:46:36,600 –> 00:46:40,640
\nMy children were a disgrace.
\nBut Dennis. <\/p>\n
905
\n00:46:41,280 –> 00:46:43,720
\nIs going to find my grace.
\nThat gives me chills just to say<\/p>\n
906
\n00:46:43,720 –> 00:46:45,120
\nit.
\nWhat an. <\/p>\n
907
\n00:46:45,120 –> 00:46:48,680
\nAmazing epitaph, that is for
\nthis man and the rest of our <\/p>\n
908
\n00:46:48,680 –> 00:46:52,160
\ntime together This week will
\nprimarily be focused on what he <\/p>\n
909
\n00:46:52,160 –> 00:46:56,120
\ndid to find that grace.
\nAs that’s what. <\/p>\n
910
\n00:46:56,120 –> 00:46:59,200
\nWe all want for us and our.
\nFamilies. <\/p>\n
911
\n00:47:01,760 –> 00:47:03,480
\nThese are the.
\nGenerations of Noah. <\/p>\n
912
\n00:47:03,600 –> 00:47:07,080
\nNoah was a just man and perfect
\nin his generations and Noah <\/p>\n
913
\n00:47:07,240 –> 00:47:10,080
\nwalked with God.
\nHere’s a first snapshot as to <\/p>\n
914
\n00:47:10,080 –> 00:47:12,800
\nwhy he found grace.
\nHe was just. <\/p>\n
915
\n00:47:12,800 –> 00:47:15,840
\nThat means he was balanced.
\nWe all try to balance the <\/p>\n
916
\n00:47:15,840 –> 00:47:18,800
\ncharacter of the Father.
\nWe we struggle with finding that<\/p>\n
917
\n00:47:18,800 –> 00:47:20,280
\nbalance.
\nSome of us are more loving. <\/p>\n
918
\n00:47:20,280 –> 00:47:21,760
\nSome of us could be more
\njudgmental. <\/p>\n
919
\n00:47:21,920 –> 00:47:23,560
\nSome of us are better extending
\nmercy. <\/p>\n
920
\n00:47:23,560 –> 00:47:25,680
\nSome of us are better at
\nstanding up and saying this is <\/p>\n
921
\n00:47:25,680 –> 00:47:28,280
\nwrong.
\nBut our Father is capable of <\/p>\n
922
\n00:47:28,280 –> 00:47:32,280
\nboth in equal parts of
\ndemonstrating the love that’s <\/p>\n
923
\n00:47:32,280 –> 00:47:36,160
\nrequired for the healing and the
\njustice that’s required for <\/p>\n
924
\n00:47:36,160 –> 00:47:38,440
\npreservation.
\nAnd you and I lean one way or <\/p>\n
925
\n00:47:38,440 –> 00:47:40,720
\nthe other.
\nWe’re constantly fighting to <\/p>\n
926
\n00:47:40,720 –> 00:47:43,480
\nfind that balance, to emulate
\nthe character of the Father. <\/p>\n
927
\n00:47:43,680 –> 00:47:48,240
\nSo we see that Noah was a
\nbalanced man, and he was perfect<\/p>\n
928
\n00:47:48,240 –> 00:47:53,000
\nor upright or complete, which.
\nIs what it means when we read <\/p>\n
929
\n00:47:53,000 –> 00:47:56,320
\nperfect in the in the Old
\nTestament, he was upright or <\/p>\n
930
\n00:47:56,320 –> 00:47:57,880
\ncomplete.
\nSo what do we have? <\/p>\n
931
\n00:47:58,880 –> 00:48:03,360
\nWe have Noah, a balanced man who
\nwas upright and complete. <\/p>\n
932
\n00:48:04,240 –> 00:48:06,520
\nBut why?
\nWas he balanced and upright? <\/p>\n
933
\n00:48:06,520 –> 00:48:08,960
\nIncomplete.
\nBecause. <\/p>\n
934
\n00:48:08,960 –> 00:48:13,640
\nHe walked God’s way.
\nHe walked. <\/p>\n
935
\n00:48:13,640 –> 00:48:17,120
\nGod’s way.
\nAnd that’s why it was just and <\/p>\n
936
\n00:48:17,120 –> 00:48:19,800
\nthat’s why it was perfected.
\nHe wasn’t walking in the way of <\/p>\n
937
\n00:48:19,800 –> 00:48:22,560
\nhis own thinking.
\nHe was surrendering his thinking<\/p>\n
938
\n00:48:22,560 –> 00:48:25,720
\nto doing things God’s way, and
\nbecause he walked with God’s <\/p>\n
939
\n00:48:25,720 –> 00:48:28,800
\nway, he effectively was walking
\nwith God. <\/p>\n
940
\n00:48:28,800 –> 00:48:37,200
\nAnd where was God going?
\nTo the Kingdom Ezekiel. 14 and <\/p>\n
941
\n00:48:37,200 –> 00:48:39,960
\n20, we focused on a little bit
\nin the in the exhortation. <\/p>\n
942
\n00:48:40,120 –> 00:48:42,520
\nJust want to touch it for a
\nmoment because we didn’t talk <\/p>\n
943
\n00:48:42,520 –> 00:48:46,400
\nreally about the efforts that
\nthese three made and how it <\/p>\n
944
\n00:48:46,400 –> 00:48:48,360
\nimpacted their family.
\nAnd that’s what we’re going to <\/p>\n
945
\n00:48:48,360 –> 00:48:51,800
\nclose with today.
\nAll three of these, Noah, Daniel<\/p>\n
946
\n00:48:51,800 –> 00:48:55,360
\nand Job, saved others by their
\nefforts. <\/p>\n
947
\n00:48:56,840 –> 00:49:01,560
\nBoth preaching and living a life
\nof faith allowed them to rescue <\/p>\n
948
\n00:49:01,560 –> 00:49:05,280
\nothers in a time of trial.
\nEzekiel. <\/p>\n
949
\n00:49:05,280 –> 00:49:09,280
\nUses them as an example to
\nIsrael to save their households.<\/p>\n
950
\n00:49:10,320 –> 00:49:15,960
\nSo let us heed the warning.
\nTo save our household as well by<\/p>\n
951
\n00:49:15,960 –> 00:49:20,440
\nlearning what they did to
\ninherit life as we see that day <\/p>\n
952
\n00:49:20,440 –> 00:49:23,960
\napproaching.
\nIf it seemed. <\/p>\n
953
\n00:49:23,960 –> 00:49:27,280
\nEvil unto you to serve the Lord.
\nChoose you this day whom you <\/p>\n
954
\n00:49:27,280 –> 00:49:29,760
\nwill serve, whether the gods
\nwhich our fathers served, that <\/p>\n
955
\n00:49:29,760 –> 00:49:32,720
\nwere on the other side of the
\nflood, or the gods of the <\/p>\n
956
\n00:49:32,720 –> 00:49:36,520
\nAmorites, and whose land you
\ndwell but as. <\/p>\n
957
\n00:49:36,520 –> 00:49:39,560
\nFor me in my house.
\nWe will serve. <\/p>\n
958
\n00:49:39,560 –> 00:49:40,000
\nThe Lord.\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
