\n00:00:13,900 –> 00:00:15,600
\nWelcome to good for selfie and
\ntalks. <\/p>\n
\n00:00:15,600 –> 00:00:19,300
\nI’m Levi and I’m Chris and I’m
\nBrian, thank you for joining us <\/p>\n
\n00:00:19,300 –> 00:00:21,900
\nthis week.
\nOn this podcast, we select one <\/p>\n
\n00:00:21,900 –> 00:00:26,400
\ntaco week to help us get the
\nBible in our daily news feed. <\/p>\n
\n00:00:26,600 –> 00:00:29,300
\nWe post a new episode of the
\nstart of each week with a short <\/p>\n
\n00:00:29,300 –> 00:00:31,400
\nintro before.
\nHand to kind of set the stage <\/p>\n
\n00:00:31,400 –> 00:00:33,600
\nfor the talk.
\nYou’re about to listen to and <\/p>\n
\n00:00:33,600 –> 00:00:36,300
\nnow let’s talk more about this
\nweek’s talk. <\/p>\n
\n00:00:50,800 –> 00:00:52,400
\nThis week were listening to an
\nexpectation. <\/p>\n
\n00:00:52,400 –> 00:00:55,400
\nThat was given by Brother
\nMcRoberts at the Idyllwild. <\/p>\n
\n00:00:55,400 –> 00:01:00,300
\nBible School in 2022.
\nAnd brother Mick is taking a At <\/p>\n
\n00:01:00,300 –> 00:01:04,099
\nthe topic of the scent of
\nChrist, he opens his excitation <\/p>\n
\n00:01:04,099 –> 00:01:07,200
\ntalking about the smell that you
\nget from attending. <\/p>\n
\n00:01:07,200 –> 00:01:09,500
\nIdlewild as a bible school, it’s
\nup in the mountains surrounded <\/p>\n
\n00:01:09,500 –> 00:01:13,900
\nby a lot of pine trees and
\nwithout spoiling too many of the<\/p>\n
\n00:01:13,900 –> 00:01:16,000
\ndifferent examples that he uses
\nas he talks through his <\/p>\n
\n00:01:16,000 –> 00:01:18,300
\nexcitation.
\nWhat I really appreciated from <\/p>\n
\n00:01:18,300 –> 00:01:23,500
\nbrother Mick was The concept of
\nthe smell of the fragrance of <\/p>\n
\n00:01:23,500 –> 00:01:26,000
\nChrist that we all are supposed
\nto be giving off. <\/p>\n
\n00:01:26,500 –> 00:01:29,600
\nYou hear lots of times when
\npeople talk about the glow that <\/p>\n
\n00:01:29,600 –> 00:01:31,300
\nMoses had when he came down from
\nthe mountain. <\/p>\n
\n00:01:31,300 –> 00:01:33,900
\nAnd I’ve heard the example
\nbefore where people talk about <\/p>\n
\n00:01:34,300 –> 00:01:37,400
\ncoming down from a bible school
\nand having that glow about them,<\/p>\n
\n00:01:37,900 –> 00:01:40,800
\nthat sometimes will fade over
\ntime as kind of the day-to-day <\/p>\n
\n00:01:40,800 –> 00:01:44,900
\ngrind of Life takes over.
\nAnd I appreciated, this is just <\/p>\n
\n00:01:44,900 –> 00:01:47,300
\na different way of kind of
\nsaying something similar, but <\/p>\n
\n00:01:47,300 –> 00:01:51,800
\nalso a good reminder of ways
\nthat you can keep The smell or <\/p>\n
\n00:01:51,800 –> 00:01:57,200
\nthe glow of a bible school going
\nlong after you have left, the <\/p>\n
\n00:01:57,200 –> 00:02:00,700
\nBible school and I appreciated
\nhis call to action at the end <\/p>\n
\n00:02:00,700 –> 00:02:04,600
\nabout making sure that we
\nencourage one another when we’re<\/p>\n
\n00:02:04,600 –> 00:02:07,700
\ndoing things that give off the
\nscent of Christ. <\/p>\n
\n00:02:08,100 –> 00:02:11,100
\nSo really enjoyed this
\nexcitation, it was a great way <\/p>\n
\n00:02:11,100 –> 00:02:14,200
\nto kick off the Bible school and
\nlisten to it and I hope you find<\/p>\n
\n00:02:14,200 –> 00:02:17,500
\nit to be just encouraging for
\nthe start of any week. <\/p>\n
\n00:02:17,500 –> 00:02:19,400
\nDoesn’t have to be just a week
\nbible school. <\/p>\n
\n00:02:19,600 –> 00:02:22,400
\nSo, With that.
\nWe’ll turn it over to our <\/p>\n
\n00:02:22,400 –> 00:02:25,600
\nbrother McRoberts for his
\nextrication, the fragrance of <\/p>\n
\n00:02:25,600 –> 00:02:28,300
\nChrist, very good evening,
\nbrothers and sisters. <\/p>\n
\n00:02:30,700 –> 00:02:34,600
\nThat’s good.
\nIt’s really good to be here. <\/p>\n
\n00:02:34,600 –> 00:02:38,100
\nAt least I assume for me, it’s
\nreally good to be here. <\/p>\n
\n00:02:39,100 –> 00:02:43,200
\nI say that because I’ve never
\nbeen here before, so you would <\/p>\n
\n00:02:43,200 –> 00:02:45,400
\nexpect wouldn’t you that
\nsomebody coming for the first <\/p>\n
\n00:02:45,400 –> 00:02:48,100
\ntime would want to check things
\nout? <\/p>\n
\n00:02:49,400 –> 00:02:51,500
\nI want to know what Idol was all
\nabout. <\/p>\n
\n00:02:52,600 –> 00:02:56,900
\nSo, I did my research.
\nI went online. <\/p>\n
\n00:02:57,800 –> 00:03:00,200
\nThat’s what we all do.
\nIs knit, we go Ogle. <\/p>\n
\n00:03:00,300 –> 00:03:01,800
\nIf you want to check something
\nout. <\/p>\n
\n00:03:02,500 –> 00:03:05,700
\nSo I went online and I found
\nsome really interesting <\/p>\n
\n00:03:05,700 –> 00:03:08,600
\npictures.
\nI found some interesting video <\/p>\n
\n00:03:08,600 –> 00:03:11,600
\nclips.
\nI saw a lot of action going on. <\/p>\n
\n00:03:12,100 –> 00:03:14,900
\nSo I saw that as sites of what
\neither wild looks like. <\/p>\n
\n00:03:16,200 –> 00:03:21,200
\nI also listen to one or two of
\nthe talks, so I had an idea of <\/p>\n
\n00:03:21,200 –> 00:03:25,500
\nwhat either was sounded like I
\neven talked to a few people have<\/p>\n
\n00:03:25,500 –> 00:03:30,400
\nbeen before who gave me a sense
\nof what Idlewild feels like. <\/p>\n
\n00:03:33,700 –> 00:03:35,900
\nBut I don’t know what Idlewild
\nsmells like. <\/p>\n
\n00:03:38,400 –> 00:03:41,000
\nNow, I’m not being flippant.
\nBut, you know, there is <\/p>\n
\n00:03:41,000 –> 00:03:45,200
\nsomething about the power of
\nsmell, which is really <\/p>\n
\n00:03:45,200 –> 00:03:47,400
\nimportant.
\nAnd if I said to you, what’s the<\/p>\n
\n00:03:47,400 –> 00:03:52,600
\nsmell of Idlewild your mind is
\nalready racing, perhaps Is that <\/p>\n
\n00:03:52,600 –> 00:03:55,700
\nthe is it the Pines?
\nIs it the food? <\/p>\n
\n00:03:57,700 –> 00:04:03,000
\nIs there a smell of Idlewild?
\nYou see the power of smell? <\/p>\n
\n00:04:03,300 –> 00:04:06,000
\nI don’t know whether you know
\nabout this, but it’s one of <\/p>\n
\n00:04:06,000 –> 00:04:09,000
\nthose things which is so
\npowerful in triggering memories.<\/p>\n
\n00:04:09,800 –> 00:04:11,900
\nIn fact, there’s been some
\nresearch going on right now <\/p>\n
\n00:04:11,900 –> 00:04:16,200
\namong neuroscientists about the
\nimpact of covid which caused <\/p>\n
\n00:04:16,200 –> 00:04:19,100
\nloss of smell.
\nAnd if that’s impacted on loss <\/p>\n
\n00:04:19,100 –> 00:04:23,300
\nof memory for people, and those
\nof us who are old enough. <\/p>\n
\n00:04:24,000 –> 00:04:27,200
\nAnd I guess that’s most of us
\nare old enough to know that <\/p>\n
\n00:04:27,200 –> 00:04:33,200
\nthere is a certain smell that
\ntransports you into Time or in <\/p>\n
\n00:04:33,200 –> 00:04:37,600
\nlocation to something.
\nA long time ago, you just catch <\/p>\n
\n00:04:37,600 –> 00:04:40,500
\nthat smell and it transports
\nyou. <\/p>\n
\n00:04:41,200 –> 00:04:45,400
\nI can think of the old sort of
\ncarbolic. <\/p>\n
\n00:04:45,400 –> 00:04:48,800
\nIt was called, It’s A Hard
\nmedicated soap, that we used to <\/p>\n
\n00:04:48,800 –> 00:04:53,300
\nhave at first grade school.
\nAnd if I, if I smell that, it <\/p>\n
\n00:04:53,300 –> 00:04:57,500
\ntakes me back 60 years and it
\nkind of transports me to a <\/p>\n
\n00:04:57,500 –> 00:05:04,300
\nmemory to a place and a Time.
\nThe other thing about smells is <\/p>\n
\n00:05:04,300 –> 00:05:08,800
\nthat smells tend to cling to,
\nyou don’t know, some of you may <\/p>\n
\n00:05:08,800 –> 00:05:13,200
\nbe in lines of work.
\nWhere when you get home, your <\/p>\n
\n00:05:13,700 –> 00:05:18,900
\nhusband, or wife says, before
\nyou step through that door, go <\/p>\n
\n00:05:18,900 –> 00:05:22,100
\nand shower, go and get changed
\nour daughter. <\/p>\n
\n00:05:22,900 –> 00:05:27,200
\nWhen she was a teenager worked
\nin in a, well, I call it fast <\/p>\n
\n00:05:27,200 –> 00:05:30,000
\nfood.
\nIf I say a fish and chip shop, <\/p>\n
\n00:05:30,000 –> 00:05:31,500
\nyou probably don’t know what I’m
\ntalking about. <\/p>\n
\n00:05:31,500 –> 00:05:35,900
\nBut, Fish and chips.
\nOkay, so it was a fast food <\/p>\n
\n00:05:36,000 –> 00:05:40,000
\nstore, a lot of frying going on
\nand when I daughter Naomi came <\/p>\n
\n00:05:40,000 –> 00:05:45,900
\nhome, we would just shout out to
\na don’t come in, she reads the <\/p>\n
\n00:05:45,900 –> 00:05:52,100
\nfish and the grease and of the
\noil, and the frying pans and it <\/p>\n
\n00:05:52,100 –> 00:05:56,300
\njust stuck to her.
\nNow, I’m saying these things <\/p>\n
\n00:05:56,300 –> 00:05:59,300
\nbecause I think there is
\nsomething about Idlewild which <\/p>\n
\n00:05:59,300 –> 00:06:04,500
\nis really important about the
\nsmell of Idlewild. <\/p>\n
\n00:06:05,700 –> 00:06:08,900
\nBecause I the world is a place I
\nguess where you make memories <\/p>\n
\n00:06:09,500 –> 00:06:13,800
\nand you take them with you.
\nI guess Idyllwild is a place <\/p>\n
\n00:06:13,800 –> 00:06:17,400
\nwhere you would like to think
\nthat things stick to you. <\/p>\n
\n00:06:18,200 –> 00:06:23,000
\nSo that when you go somewhere,
\nPeople know where you’ve been. <\/p>\n
\n00:06:25,600 –> 00:06:29,000
\nAnd I wonder if this idea is
\npartly behind what we read about<\/p>\n
\n00:06:29,000 –> 00:06:35,700
\nsmell and Aroma in Scripture,
\nThere’s a lot when you start to <\/p>\n
\n00:06:35,700 –> 00:06:39,900
\nlook and I just want to take us
\nto two or three passages to <\/p>\n
\n00:06:39,900 –> 00:06:43,000
\nbring this point home, so that,
\nhopefully, you can really take <\/p>\n
\n00:06:43,000 –> 00:06:47,800
\naway something practical because
\nyou and I between us are going <\/p>\n
\n00:06:47,800 –> 00:06:53,000
\nto create the odor.
\nIdlewild To take away. <\/p>\n
\n00:06:55,200 –> 00:06:58,300
\nThe first time we read about it,
\ncan you go with me to Genesis <\/p>\n
\n00:07:01,200 –> 00:07:13,600
\nand that chapter 8, We find in
\nverse 20, that Noah built an <\/p>\n
\n00:07:13,600 –> 00:07:16,800
\naltar to the Lord and took of
\nevery clean animal, and every <\/p>\n
\n00:07:16,800 –> 00:07:20,000
\nclean bird, and offered burnt
\nofferings to on the Altar. <\/p>\n
\n00:07:20,600 –> 00:07:28,800
\nAnd the Lord was 21 smelled.
\nA soothing aroma And the Lord <\/p>\n
\n00:07:28,800 –> 00:07:32,000
\nsaid in his heart, I will never
\nagain, curse the ground for <\/p>\n
\n00:07:32,000 –> 00:07:34,700
\nman’s sake.
\nAlthough the imaginations of a <\/p>\n
\n00:07:34,700 –> 00:07:36,900
\nman’s heart is evil from his
\nyouth. <\/p>\n
\n00:07:37,000 –> 00:07:40,900
\nNor will I, again, destroy every
\nliving thing as I have done. <\/p>\n
\n00:07:42,100 –> 00:07:45,500
\nNow, when we talk about the
\npower of smell, did God change <\/p>\n
\n00:07:45,500 –> 00:07:49,500
\nhis mind because he could smell
\na burnt offering. <\/p>\n
\n00:07:52,300 –> 00:07:56,100
\nKind of disgust.
\nOr was it that what God was <\/p>\n
\n00:07:56,100 –> 00:07:59,300
\nresponding to was the action of
\na faithful man? <\/p>\n
\n00:08:00,400 –> 00:08:04,100
\nAnd it was so powerful that when
\nthis offering was made on the <\/p>\n
\n00:08:04,100 –> 00:08:11,200
\nultra and the aroma lifted up to
\nthe heavens, The God said, the <\/p>\n
\n00:08:11,200 –> 00:08:16,000
\nsmell that I can smell.
\nIs a smell that indicates, there<\/p>\n
\n00:08:16,000 –> 00:08:21,100
\nis a man who cares and a man who
\nwith wanting to commit himself <\/p>\n
\n00:08:21,100 –> 00:08:24,200
\nto me and such is his
\nfaithfulness. <\/p>\n
\n00:08:25,700 –> 00:08:29,200
\nThen I’m not going to destroy.
\nNow that’s powerful is that <\/p>\n
\n00:08:29,800 –> 00:08:33,100
\nthat’s powerful, but God didn’t
\nneed the smell. <\/p>\n
\n00:08:33,100 –> 00:08:38,299
\nGod didn’t need the animal.
\nHe needed the commitment, he <\/p>\n
\n00:08:38,299 –> 00:08:40,500
\nneeded the action, he needed the
\ndedication. <\/p>\n
\n00:08:40,500 –> 00:08:44,000
\nThat Noah was showing.
\nSo, of course, when we, then <\/p>\n
\n00:08:44,000 –> 00:08:50,300
\nmove through Exodus and
\nLeviticus and numbers, We find <\/p>\n
\n00:08:50,300 –> 00:08:54,500
\nabout 40 times.
\nThe phrase of a sweet-smelling <\/p>\n
\n00:08:55,300 –> 00:09:00,200
\nsavour rising up to the Lord and
\nthat’s a lot, isn’t it? <\/p>\n
\n00:09:00,400 –> 00:09:04,300
\nIt’s embodied into the law that
\nto the children of Israel to <\/p>\n
\n00:09:04,300 –> 00:09:08,500
\nindicate their dedication.
\nTheir love for the heavenly <\/p>\n
\n00:09:08,500 –> 00:09:13,800
\nfather.
\nThey would offer incense, they <\/p>\n
\n00:09:13,800 –> 00:09:18,000
\nwould offer sacrifice and it
\nwould rise to the Lord not that <\/p>\n
\n00:09:18,000 –> 00:09:23,300
\nthe Lord needed the smell.
\nBut that’s a rumor was an <\/p>\n
\n00:09:23,300 –> 00:09:27,100
\nindication that they were people
\nhere who were following my <\/p>\n
\n00:09:27,100 –> 00:09:32,400
\ncommands, who listened and loves
\nme and who acted in faith. <\/p>\n
\n00:09:35,200 –> 00:09:40,900
\nWe also know as we’ve read in
\nour Jeremiah reading. that there<\/p>\n
\n00:09:40,900 –> 00:09:44,500
\ncame a time when the Lord
\nwouldn’t accept those offerings,<\/p>\n
\n00:09:45,400 –> 00:09:47,700
\nhe didn’t want them.
\nIn fact, if you look with me, if<\/p>\n
\n00:09:47,700 –> 00:09:52,300
\nyou go to Leviticus, let’s turn
\nto Leviticus. <\/p>\n
\n00:09:59,500 –> 00:10:03,300
\nActually no let’s go.
\nYeah let’s go to Exodus re <\/p>\n
\n00:10:03,300 –> 00:10:16,500
\nExodus.
\nLet’s go to Exodus chapter 30 We<\/p>\n
\n00:10:16,500 –> 00:10:19,400
\nfind that the children of Israel
\nwere given Specific Instructions<\/p>\n
\n00:10:19,400 –> 00:10:24,900
\nwhen they were to create an
\naroma to the Lord and indeed, <\/p>\n
\n00:10:24,900 –> 00:10:30,500
\nthe altar of incense was
\ndevised, it was designed by God <\/p>\n
\n00:10:30,500 –> 00:10:33,300
\nand it was built by man.
\nAnd they were to carry out <\/p>\n
\n00:10:33,300 –> 00:10:36,900
\nprecisely the instructions that
\nGod had given. <\/p>\n
\n00:10:37,400 –> 00:10:42,500
\nAnd we read in in Exodus 30 that
\nin the opening verse, you’ll <\/p>\n
\n00:10:42,500 –> 00:10:46,000
\nmake an altar to burn incense on
\nit. <\/p>\n
\n00:10:46,500 –> 00:10:50,400
\nYou’ll make it of acacia wood
\nand so goes the description <\/p>\n
\n00:10:50,400 –> 00:10:53,200
\nverse 7.
\nAaron shall burn on its sweet <\/p>\n
\n00:10:53,200 –> 00:10:56,900
\nincense every morning when he
\ntends the lamps and he shall <\/p>\n
\n00:10:56,900 –> 00:11:00,500
\nburn incense on it and when air
\nand light the lamps at Twilight <\/p>\n
\n00:11:00,500 –> 00:11:05,300
\nhe shall burn incense on it.
\nIt’s a Perpetual incense before <\/p>\n
\n00:11:05,300 –> 00:11:09,000
\nthe Lord throughout your
\nGenerations, you shall offer. <\/p>\n
\n00:11:09,100 –> 00:11:14,200
\nNot any strange incense, or a
\nburnt offering or a grain <\/p>\n
\n00:11:14,200 –> 00:11:16,200
\noffering nor shall you pour a
\ndrink offering? <\/p>\n
\n00:11:16,400 –> 00:11:19,600
\nOn it.
\nThe Lord was very precise and we<\/p>\n
\n00:11:19,600 –> 00:11:21,300
\nknow that there were indeed
\nincidents. <\/p>\n
\n00:11:21,300 –> 00:11:25,000
\nWhere there were individuals who
\noffered strange incense, they <\/p>\n
\n00:11:25,000 –> 00:11:28,900
\nthought they could concoct their
\nown recipe of how you approach <\/p>\n
\n00:11:28,900 –> 00:11:31,100
\nthe Lord.
\nWe think we know what the Lord <\/p>\n
\n00:11:31,100 –> 00:11:36,100
\nwants to smell.
\nOwn the stories of Nader and a <\/p>\n
\n00:11:36,108 –> 00:11:39,000
\nbike.
\nYou the story of Cora are <\/p>\n
\n00:11:39,000 –> 00:11:42,500
\nincidents where men thought they
\ncould change what God wanted, <\/p>\n
\n00:11:42,800 –> 00:11:46,300
\nand God destroyed them for their
\nactions and for their <\/p>\n
\n00:11:46,300 –> 00:11:50,200
\nDisobedience, it’s interesting
\nthat when you read on in the <\/p>\n
\n00:11:50,200 –> 00:11:55,000
\nchapter, the precise details of
\nhow these things are to be made <\/p>\n
\n00:11:55,000 –> 00:11:59,300
\nand look what it says.
\nAs you get down to verse 31, you<\/p>\n
\n00:11:59,300 –> 00:12:01,100
\nshall speak to the children of
\nIsrael saying. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:01,200 –> 00:12:03,400
\nThis shall be a holy anointing
\noil to me. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:03,600 –> 00:12:06,800
\nThroughout your Generations.
\nIt shall not be poured on man’s <\/p>\n
\n00:12:06,800 –> 00:12:09,500
\nflesh.
\nNor shall you met any other like<\/p>\n
\n00:12:09,500 –> 00:12:11,800
\nit?
\nAccording to its composition. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:11,800 –> 00:12:14,800
\nIts holy and it should be holy
\nto you. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:14,900 –> 00:12:18,400
\nWhoever compounds any like it or
\nhowever, put any of it on an <\/p>\n
\n00:12:18,400 –> 00:12:21,500
\noutsider shall be cut off from
\nhis people. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:23,400 –> 00:12:28,400
\nSo it’s a, it’s a component
\nparts that come together and God<\/p>\n
\n00:12:28,400 –> 00:12:32,000
\nsays, I want you to bring these
\ncomponent parts and I want you <\/p>\n
\n00:12:32,000 –> 00:12:35,000
\nto bring them before me on as a
\nPerpetual offering. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:35,200 –> 00:12:39,200
\nI want you to live in a way that
\nI can smell this smell that you <\/p>\n
\n00:12:39,200 –> 00:12:45,200
\ncare and you love me and you
\nobey my words, but they didn’t. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:46,200 –> 00:12:48,700
\nSo I was taken to look to
\nLeviticus too soon. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:48,700 –> 00:12:53,600
\nWas nine his Leviticus that’s
\njust turn Leviticus 26. <\/p>\n
\n00:12:56,800 –> 00:13:01,400
\nBecause the warning was if you
\ndisobey me. <\/p>\n
\n00:13:03,700 –> 00:13:08,700
\nLeviticus 26, verse 14.
\nIf you do not obey me and don’t <\/p>\n
\n00:13:08,700 –> 00:13:12,800
\nobserve my Commandments, you
\ndespise my statutes or if your <\/p>\n
\n00:13:12,800 –> 00:13:15,900
\nsoul of bores, my judgment.
\nSo you don’t perform my <\/p>\n
\n00:13:15,900 –> 00:13:18,000
\nCommandments but break my
\nCovenant. <\/p>\n
\n00:13:18,000 –> 00:13:21,600
\nHere’s what I’ll do.
\nAnd the Lord lists the various <\/p>\n
\n00:13:21,600 –> 00:13:26,100
\nthings, which he will do in
\nresponse to that disobedience. <\/p>\n
\n00:13:27,400 –> 00:13:30,200
\nAnd then we come down to verse
\n30. <\/p>\n
\n00:13:31,600 –> 00:13:35,500
\nI’ll destroy your high places,
\ncut down, your incense altars <\/p>\n
\n00:13:35,700 –> 00:13:39,500
\nand cast your carcasses on the
\nlifeless forms of your Idols <\/p>\n
\n00:13:39,500 –> 00:13:43,000
\nthat my soul will have bore you
\nand I will lay your city’s waste<\/p>\n
\n00:13:43,100 –> 00:13:45,100
\nand bring your sanctuaries a
\ndesolation. <\/p>\n
\n00:13:45,200 –> 00:13:49,800
\nAnd I will not smell.
\nThe fragrance of your sweet <\/p>\n
\n00:13:49,800 –> 00:13:54,000
\nAromas.
\nIt’s just dog, isn’t it? <\/p>\n
\n00:13:55,300 –> 00:13:58,200
\nAnd it’s to do with obedience
\nand disobedience is not because <\/p>\n
\n00:13:58,200 –> 00:14:01,600
\nthe Lord needs to smell that
\nsmell, because he loves the <\/p>\n
\n00:14:01,600 –> 00:14:05,600
\nsmell.
\nHe needs to smell that says you <\/p>\n
\n00:14:05,600 –> 00:14:11,800
\nlove me and obey me.
\nYou’ve listened to me and you <\/p>\n
\n00:14:11,800 –> 00:14:16,300
\ncarry out those things which I
\nwant and maybe just like David <\/p>\n
\n00:14:16,300 –> 00:14:21,100
\nin the psalm says my prayers are
\ngoing to rise up like incense to<\/p>\n
\n00:14:21,100 –> 00:14:24,200
\nyou because it’s about my
\nrelationship with you. <\/p>\n
\n00:14:24,300 –> 00:14:27,600
\nI love you and I want to
\ndedicate myself to you. <\/p>\n
\n00:14:30,100 –> 00:14:34,600
\nSo it’s easy, isn’t it?
\nWe’ve got to make sure that we <\/p>\n
\n00:14:34,900 –> 00:14:38,700
\nare the aroma that the Lord
\nwants to smell. <\/p>\n
\n00:14:39,800 –> 00:14:42,800
\nBecause we to are, are a
\nsacrifice on me. <\/p>\n
\n00:14:42,900 –> 00:14:45,600
\nThat’s what it says.
\nLet’s just look at Romans 12. <\/p>\n
\n00:14:45,600 –> 00:14:48,400
\nYou know, the verse is, we’re
\ngoing to look at perhaps Romans <\/p>\n
\n00:14:48,400 –> 00:14:52,400
\n12 the opening verses.
\nI beseech you, therefore <\/p>\n
\n00:14:52,400 –> 00:14:56,200
\nBrothers by the mercies of God,
\nthat you present, your bodies, a<\/p>\n
\n00:14:56,200 –> 00:15:00,800
\nLiving Sacrifice, holy
\nacceptable, to God, which is <\/p>\n
\n00:15:00,800 –> 00:15:03,100
\nyour reasonable service.
\nSo, here we are. <\/p>\n
\n00:15:03,100 –> 00:15:07,100
\nWe’re a Living, Sacrifice, you
\npresent yourself, your bodies, <\/p>\n
\n00:15:07,100 –> 00:15:09,400
\nyour whole self.
\nTo God. <\/p>\n
\n00:15:09,400 –> 00:15:13,800
\nThat’s what we’re called to do
\nas a sacrifice. and when you <\/p>\n
\n00:15:13,800 –> 00:15:18,400
\nmake a sacrifice, just like,
\nNoah, just like the faithful <\/p>\n
\n00:15:18,400 –> 00:15:21,900
\nchildren of Israel, the sweet
\nAroma Rises to our Heavenly <\/p>\n
\n00:15:21,900 –> 00:15:26,000
\nFather, and that’s what we’re
\ntold. <\/p>\n
\n00:15:27,700 –> 00:15:32,400
\nIf you just turn on a few pages,
\nwhen Paul wrote to the <\/p>\n
\n00:15:32,400 –> 00:15:37,000
\nCorinthians second letter to the
\nCorinthians, I was struck by <\/p>\n
\n00:15:37,000 –> 00:15:43,800
\nthis verse Depending, which
\ntranslation you’ve got. <\/p>\n
\n00:15:44,800 –> 00:15:47,400
\nI’m reading from the new King
\nJames version. <\/p>\n
\n00:15:49,700 –> 00:15:52,800
\nWhen I read this, in the new
\nKing James, for the first time I<\/p>\n
\n00:15:52,800 –> 00:15:58,600
\nthought this is really neat.
\nI thought the Apostle Paul knew <\/p>\n
\n00:15:58,600 –> 00:16:02,500
\nall about diffusers.
\nHow do you do that? <\/p>\n
\n00:16:02,500 –> 00:16:05,100
\nTwo thousand years ago is what
\nit says. <\/p>\n
\n00:16:08,000 –> 00:16:10,800
\nThe verse for verse 12,
\nfurthermore, when I came to <\/p>\n
\n00:16:10,800 –> 00:16:14,200
\ntroas to preach Christ’s gospel
\nand the door was open to me by <\/p>\n
\n00:16:14,200 –> 00:16:17,600
\nthe Lord by had no rest in my
\nspirit because I didn’t find <\/p>\n
\n00:16:17,600 –> 00:16:20,100
\nTitus, my brother, but taking
\nleave of them. <\/p>\n
\n00:16:20,200 –> 00:16:23,200
\nI departed from Macedonia.
\nSo he’s talking about the <\/p>\n
\n00:16:23,200 –> 00:16:25,200
\nchallenges in his preaching
\nwork. <\/p>\n
\n00:16:25,500 –> 00:16:33,000
\nNow, thanks be to God who always
\nleads us in Triumph in Christ <\/p>\n
\n00:16:33,600 –> 00:16:39,300
\nand through us.
\nDiffuses the fragrance of his <\/p>\n
\n00:16:39,300 –> 00:16:46,000
\nknowledge in every place for we
\nare to God the fragrance of <\/p>\n
\n00:16:46,000 –> 00:16:49,600
\nChrist.
\nNow, when I read this the first <\/p>\n
\n00:16:49,600 –> 00:16:53,100
\ntime now I know that some of you
\nwill have these in your homes. <\/p>\n
\n00:16:53,700 –> 00:16:56,500
\nI can confirm that our host
\nknows that this has been <\/p>\n
\n00:16:56,700 –> 00:17:03,000
\nappropriated from her home.
\nBut the idea behind a diffuser <\/p>\n
\n00:17:03,100 –> 00:17:06,900
\nis just so simple.
\nYou put the appropriate oil <\/p>\n
\n00:17:06,900 –> 00:17:12,700
\ninside and you put your sticks
\ninside and the sticks, absorb <\/p>\n
\n00:17:12,700 –> 00:17:17,400
\nthe oil.
\nWhen it’s absorbed the oil you <\/p>\n
\n00:17:17,400 –> 00:17:21,099
\ncan turn them over.
\nYou can put them back in and <\/p>\n
\n00:17:21,099 –> 00:17:25,300
\nthat Aroma is now diffused
\naround the house. <\/p>\n
\n00:17:26,800 –> 00:17:30,600
\nNow, I know I was told that
\nthese these steaks, haven’t had <\/p>\n
\n00:17:30,800 –> 00:17:32,600
\nthe company of oil for quite a
\nwhile. <\/p>\n
\n00:17:34,200 –> 00:17:36,100
\nBut I can still smell a little
\non them. <\/p>\n
\n00:17:38,800 –> 00:17:43,100
\nI wonder whether you and I are
\nsometimes like these dry sticks.<\/p>\n
\n00:17:44,400 –> 00:17:48,200
\nYou see if we are here to absorb
\nChrist. <\/p>\n
\n00:17:49,800 –> 00:17:54,800
\nAnd diffuse it about the house.
\nThe Ecclesia. <\/p>\n
\n00:17:56,800 –> 00:18:00,900
\nOr maybe for this week, the
\nEcclesia in the mountain. <\/p>\n
\n00:18:02,400 –> 00:18:06,200
\nWe can diffuse Christ.
\nWhat’s what it says, isn’t it <\/p>\n
\n00:18:07,200 –> 00:18:10,200
\nthrough us?
\nHe diffuses the fragrance of his<\/p>\n
\n00:18:10,200 –> 00:18:16,200
\nknowledge in every place for we
\nare to God, the fragrance of <\/p>\n
\n00:18:16,200 –> 00:18:21,100
\nChrist.
\nWe have the smell of Christ <\/p>\n
\n00:18:21,400 –> 00:18:23,900
\nbecause Christ smell clings to
\nus. <\/p>\n
\n00:18:24,500 –> 00:18:28,000
\nJust, as we said about the
\nworkplace smell that clings. <\/p>\n
\n00:18:28,000 –> 00:18:31,400
\nWell, if we’re about the Lord’s
\nwork, it clings to us. <\/p>\n
\n00:18:32,900 –> 00:18:35,300
\nAnd that’s why I said about the
\nsmell of Idlewild. <\/p>\n
\n00:18:37,700 –> 00:18:43,500
\nWhen we go back, will we have
\nabsorbed enough of Christ, to <\/p>\n
\n00:18:43,500 –> 00:18:48,300
\ndiffuse it in our neighborhood,
\namong our families, among our <\/p>\n
\n00:18:48,300 –> 00:18:51,700
\nfriends, among Eric loses.
\nAnd those that we’ve remembered <\/p>\n
\n00:18:51,700 –> 00:18:57,600
\nwho can’t be with us for this
\nweek, what an opportunity we <\/p>\n
\n00:18:57,600 –> 00:19:02,900
\nhave and what a responsibility
\nwe have of being the diffusers. <\/p>\n
\n00:19:04,000 –> 00:19:11,700
\nThis fragrance of Christ.
\nYou know sometimes in our <\/p>\n
\n00:19:11,700 –> 00:19:19,800
\nlanguage we we confirm or convey
\nthat the olfactory system in our<\/p>\n
\n00:19:19,800 –> 00:19:23,800
\nheads you know the smell
\nprocessed, the smelling sense is<\/p>\n
\n00:19:23,800 –> 00:19:27,500
\nparticularly important to us.
\nPeople sometimes talk about the <\/p>\n
\n00:19:27,500 –> 00:19:29,900
\nsweet smell of success.
\nI Can Smell Trouble. <\/p>\n
\n00:19:30,000 –> 00:19:32,000
\nThis smells fishy to me.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n
\n00:19:34,800 –> 00:19:37,500
\nWell, you might also notice this
\nweek. <\/p>\n
\n00:19:37,700 –> 00:19:40,900
\nI don’t know as the week goes
\non. <\/p>\n
\n00:19:44,100 –> 00:19:45,900
\nAnd the clothes need more
\nwashing. <\/p>\n
\n00:19:47,600 –> 00:19:50,900
\nAnd the cologne is not coming
\nout as often as it should. <\/p>\n
\n00:19:52,400 –> 00:19:55,100
\nBut sometimes, you know, we
\nmight be Sat by someone or walk <\/p>\n
\n00:19:55,100 –> 00:19:57,900
\nby someone and you.
\nSometimes catch an ice melt. <\/p>\n
\n00:19:57,900 –> 00:19:59,600
\nAre you what are you wearing
\ntoday? <\/p>\n
\n00:20:01,800 –> 00:20:03,900
\nWell, what are you wearing,
\nbrother or sister, and what am I<\/p>\n
\n00:20:03,908 –> 00:20:07,200
\nwearing?
\nAnd I am wearing Christ to catch<\/p>\n
\n00:20:07,200 –> 00:20:10,600
\nthe smell of Christ.
\nAbout me. <\/p>\n
\n00:20:10,900 –> 00:20:13,600
\nDo we catch the smell of Christ
\nabout each other? <\/p>\n
\n00:20:13,600 –> 00:20:19,800
\nDo we catch it as it were in
\nthis room and across Idlewild? <\/p>\n
\n00:20:21,100 –> 00:20:27,600
\nwhen we see someone, Acting in
\nthat loving Christ. <\/p>\n
\n00:20:27,600 –> 00:20:33,400
\nLike faithful dedicated.
\nGentle kind way. <\/p>\n
\n00:20:35,400 –> 00:20:39,500
\nAnd we you just cast this as a
\nchrist-like way of doing things.<\/p>\n
\n00:20:40,900 –> 00:20:43,900
\nWe’ve got to maybe take the time
\nbecause if there are wearing a <\/p>\n
\n00:20:43,908 –> 00:20:46,600
\nreally expensive cologne, we
\nmight go well that smells good. <\/p>\n
\n00:20:46,600 –> 00:20:52,500
\nWhat is it?
\nwell, if we catch the smell, One<\/p>\n
\n00:20:52,500 –> 00:20:56,300
\nof our brothers or sisters or
\nyoung people who are acting in <\/p>\n
\n00:20:56,300 –> 00:20:59,700
\nthat christ-like way, and
\nthey’re showing and diffusing <\/p>\n
\n00:20:59,700 –> 00:21:02,400
\nthe fragrance of the knowledge
\nof price then, just let them <\/p>\n
\n00:21:02,400 –> 00:21:05,100
\nknow.
\nYou know, that smells good. <\/p>\n
\n00:21:06,200 –> 00:21:09,400
\nI can I can sense that
\nchrist-like behavior. <\/p>\n
\n00:21:09,800 –> 00:21:14,500
\nLet’s encourage each other when
\nwe see these things so that <\/p>\n
\n00:21:14,500 –> 00:21:22,700
\nindeed they may continue.
\nSo when we break bread and drink<\/p>\n
\n00:21:22,700 –> 00:21:27,100
\nwine, where does this fit in?
\nWe’ll just turn with me. <\/p>\n
\n00:21:27,100 –> 00:21:34,300
\nIf you will to Ephesians
\nEphesians 5. <\/p>\n
\n00:21:41,300 –> 00:21:44,600
\nTherefore be imitators of God as
\ndear children. <\/p>\n
\n00:21:45,400 –> 00:21:47,000
\nThat’s what we want to do this
\nweek. <\/p>\n
\n00:21:47,800 –> 00:21:53,600
\nBe imitators of God.
\nAnd walk in love. <\/p>\n
\n00:21:54,700 –> 00:21:56,400
\nThat’s what we want to do this
\nweek. <\/p>\n
\n00:21:57,500 –> 00:22:00,100
\nBecause that’s how we’re going
\nto create the smell of Idlewild.<\/p>\n
\n00:22:00,600 –> 00:22:02,200
\nThat’s how we’re going to
\nbottle. <\/p>\n
\n00:22:02,800 –> 00:22:07,000
\nIdlewild.
\nBut there’s someone has already <\/p>\n
\n00:22:07,000 –> 00:22:11,400
\ndone this for us.
\nAs Christ also has loved us and <\/p>\n
\n00:22:11,400 –> 00:22:15,900
\ngiven himself for us.
\nAn offering and a sacrifice to <\/p>\n
\n00:22:15,900 –> 00:22:21,100
\nGod, for a sweet-smelling
\nsavour. <\/p>\n
\n00:22:23,300 –> 00:22:25,500
\nYou see the offering has been
\nmade. <\/p>\n
\n00:22:28,000 –> 00:22:34,500
\nBut we can let this Aroma cling
\nto us and shape us in our <\/p>\n
\n00:22:34,500 –> 00:22:40,200
\nthoughts, in our actions and
\ncontinue to transform us into <\/p>\n
\n00:22:40,200 –> 00:22:46,000
\nthe people who we want to be.
\nAs we share the Bread and Wine. <\/p>\n
\n00:22:47,300 –> 00:22:49,900
\nAnd we reflect on that
\nchallenge. <\/p>\n
\n00:22:50,900 –> 00:22:56,900
\nTo be more like him to be
\nimitators and to walk in love as<\/p>\n
\n00:22:56,900 –> 00:23:00,900
\nchildren.
\nMay our prayer be that all that <\/p>\n
\n00:23:00,900 –> 00:23:05,900
\nwe do.
\nAll that, we say all that. <\/p>\n
\n00:23:05,900 –> 00:23:09,700
\nWe think?
\nAll that we sing. <\/p>\n
\n00:23:11,500 –> 00:23:15,500
\nAll that we do.
\nAnd pray. <\/p>\n
\n00:23:16,900 –> 00:23:23,600
\nBe as a sweet-smelling savour.
\nThat rises up to the father. <\/p>\n
\n00:23:24,700 –> 00:23:29,600
\nNot because he needs that smell.
\nIt’s because he needs what <\/p>\n
\n00:23:29,600 –> 00:23:36,000
\nmotivates people who create it.
\npeople who love people who walk <\/p>\n
\n00:23:36,700 –> 00:23:41,800
\nwith him, and with his son, may
\nGod bless us in our week <\/p>\n
\n00:23:41,800 –> 00:23:46,200
\ntogether.
\nMaybe bottle, Idlewild That <\/p>\n
\n00:23:46,200 –> 00:23:50,800
\nOthers May know that we have
\nbeen with him and they’ll know <\/p>\n
\n00:23:51,500 –> 00:24:10,800
\nbecause we love each other.
