00:00:04,800<br \/>\nIdlewild Bible School.<br \/>\nOur first period teacher is <\/p>\n<p>3<br \/>\n00:00:04,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:06,100<br \/>\nbrother.<br \/>\nJason Hensley. <\/p>\n<p>4<br \/>\n00:00:06,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:09,800<br \/>\nHis General subject is Elijah.<br \/>\nA man of like passions. <\/p>\n<p>5<br \/>\n00:00:09,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:12,400<br \/>\nToday&#8217;s topic is the voice<br \/>\nbrother. <\/p>\n<p>6<br \/>\n00:00:12,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:14,400<br \/>\nJason.<br \/>\nGood morning everyone. <\/p>\n<p>7<br \/>\n00:00:16,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:19,200<br \/>\nAll right, so first of all,<br \/>\nsince it is the last day, I <\/p>\n<p>8<br \/>\n00:00:19,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:22,600<br \/>\nthink it is appropriate for me<br \/>\nto say, thank you for having me,<\/p>\n<p>9<br \/>\n00:00:22,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:24,100<br \/>\nand thank you for having my<br \/>\nfamily. <\/p>\n<p>10<br \/>\n00:00:24,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:29,200<br \/>\nParticularly, because I have<br \/>\nbeen told that I was notoriously<\/p>\n<p>11<br \/>\n00:00:29,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:35,000<br \/>\nknown as the Absolute worst<br \/>\nstudent at Idlewild and I was <\/p>\n<p>12<br \/>\n00:00:35,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:38,400<br \/>\nalso told that my nickname by my<br \/>\nteachers at Idlewild was the <\/p>\n<p>13<br \/>\n00:00:38,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:43,800<br \/>\nspawn of Satan.<br \/>\nSo so you know I like to think <\/p>\n<p>14<br \/>\n00:00:43,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:46,100<br \/>\nthat it&#8217;s appropriate to open<br \/>\nwith that when we&#8217;re talking <\/p>\n<p>15<br \/>\n00:00:46,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:48,500<br \/>\nabout Elijah because it&#8217;s good<br \/>\nto remember that people can <\/p>\n<p>16<br \/>\n00:00:48,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:52,400<br \/>\nchange.<br \/>\nSo so there you go. <\/p>\n<p>17<br \/>\n00:00:54,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:00:56,000<br \/>\nOkay.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s also a couple of other <\/p>\n<p>18<br \/>\n00:00:56,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:00,600<br \/>\nthings that I need to say at at<br \/>\nthe beginning and that is I made<\/p>\n<p>19<br \/>\n00:01:00,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:03,400<br \/>\ntwo mistakes yesterday and<br \/>\nthings that I said, first of <\/p>\n<p>20<br \/>\n00:01:03,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:07,800<br \/>\nall, I said that when Elijah was<br \/>\ntalking to Obadiah that he told <\/p>\n<p>21<br \/>\n00:01:07,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:12,700<br \/>\nObadiah that you know oh well<br \/>\nwhatever you&#8217;re you&#8217;re just <\/p>\n<p>22<br \/>\n00:01:12,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:15,400<br \/>\ngoing to have to die too bad.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s not actually what he said<\/p>\n<p>23<br \/>\n00:01:15,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:19,500<br \/>\nand I had, I misspoke there.<br \/>\nElijah did say, I would stay. <\/p>\n<p>24<br \/>\n00:01:20,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:22,900<br \/>\nAnd that way you will not get<br \/>\nkilled by Ahab. <\/p>\n<p>25<br \/>\n00:01:22,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:24,300<br \/>\nSo that&#8217;s an important thing to<br \/>\nnote there. <\/p>\n<p>26<br \/>\n00:01:24,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:28,100<br \/>\nCorrect the record and the<br \/>\nsecond thing is I said that God <\/p>\n<p>27<br \/>\n00:01:28,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:32,200<br \/>\ndid not answer a lie just prayer<br \/>\non caramel and and I think it <\/p>\n<p>28<br \/>\n00:01:32,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:34,200<br \/>\nkind of depends on how you<br \/>\ndefine answering. <\/p>\n<p>29<br \/>\n00:01:34,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:37,100<br \/>\nI&#8217;d said that before, because<br \/>\nsomebody ants ask me. <\/p>\n<p>30<br \/>\n00:01:37,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:41,200<br \/>\nWell, how do you explain God<br \/>\nanswering his prayer on caramel <\/p>\n<p>31<br \/>\n00:01:41,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:43,100<br \/>\nif you think, you know, Elijah<br \/>\nmade mistakes there? <\/p>\n<p>32<br \/>\n00:01:43,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:48,200<br \/>\nAnd so my answer was well, he<br \/>\ndidn&#8217;t, but I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>33<br \/>\n00:01:48,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:51,000<br \/>\nthe right way to describe it.<br \/>\nI think it&#8217;s probably better to <\/p>\n<p>34<br \/>\n00:01:51,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:55,200<br \/>\nsay.<br \/>\nGod, always answers prayers, but<\/p>\n<p>35<br \/>\n00:01:55,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:01:58,200<br \/>\nhe answers them in ways that we<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t expect. <\/p>\n<p>36<br \/>\n00:01:58,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:02,800<br \/>\nAnd in this case, the answer to<br \/>\nElijah was Not today. <\/p>\n<p>37<br \/>\n00:02:03,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:06,200<br \/>\nBut in the future.<br \/>\nSo I think that&#8217;s an important <\/p>\n<p>38<br \/>\n00:02:06,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:09,500<br \/>\nthing to clarify.<br \/>\nAll right, as we get started, <\/p>\n<p>39<br \/>\n00:02:09,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:11,700<br \/>\nnow we are going to see<br \/>\neverything here. <\/p>\n<p>40<br \/>\n00:02:11,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:16,400<br \/>\nFall apart for Elijah, we&#8217;re in<br \/>\nclass number 6, on The Voice. <\/p>\n<p>41<br \/>\n00:02:17,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:20,600<br \/>\nWe are going to see that God<br \/>\ndoes not relent. <\/p>\n<p>42<br \/>\n00:02:22,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:26,800<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s our sections will see the<br \/>\nconverted Nation converted <\/p>\n<p>43<br \/>\n00:02:27,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:29,200<br \/>\nNation.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re going to see Elijah <\/p>\n<p>44<br \/>\n00:02:29,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:32,300<br \/>\nbecoming Moses, and then we&#8217;re<br \/>\ngoing to discuss the spirit of <\/p>\n<p>45<br \/>\n00:02:32,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:37,800<br \/>\nElijah, which really brings us<br \/>\nto the end of his life and what <\/p>\n<p>46<br \/>\n00:02:37,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:39,700<br \/>\nhe will do.<br \/>\nGod willing in the future. <\/p>\n<p>47<br \/>\n00:02:40,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:43,700<br \/>\nGod does not relent.<br \/>\nI think this is really <\/p>\n<p>48<br \/>\n00:02:43,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:46,100<br \/>\nimportant.<br \/>\nSome of you may have felt like <\/p>\n<p>49<br \/>\n00:02:46,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:52,000<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve been a little harsh on<br \/>\nElijah, And I think there&#8217;s a <\/p>\n<p>50<br \/>\n00:02:52,008 &#8211;&gt; 00:02:58,100<br \/>\nfew reasons for that.<br \/>\nNumber one is because I think we<\/p>\n<p>51<br \/>\n00:02:58,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:00,100<br \/>\nso often hold them up as a<br \/>\nsuperhero. <\/p>\n<p>52<br \/>\n00:03:00,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:03,800<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s important to be very clear<br \/>\nabout the mistakes that do <\/p>\n<p>53<br \/>\n00:03:03,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:05,900<br \/>\nhappen because scripture shows<br \/>\nthose to us. <\/p>\n<p>54<br \/>\n00:03:07,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:14,300<br \/>\nThe other piece though is, I<br \/>\nthink when we recognize how God <\/p>\n<p>55<br \/>\n00:03:14,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:18,700<br \/>\nworks and that&#8217;s what this core<br \/>\nmessage is all about, I&#8217;m not <\/p>\n<p>56<br \/>\n00:03:18,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:21,600<br \/>\nsure.<br \/>\nIt actually is all that harsh on<\/p>\n<p>57<br \/>\n00:03:21,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:29,700<br \/>\nElijah because God isn&#8217;t<br \/>\nnecessarily looking at the sum <\/p>\n<p>58<br \/>\n00:03:29,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:35,000<br \/>\nof our actions.<br \/>\nGod is looking at who we are and<\/p>\n<p>59<br \/>\n00:03:35,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:40,200<br \/>\nhe transforms us so that those<br \/>\nactions do slowly become what he<\/p>\n<p>60<br \/>\n00:03:40,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:43,200<br \/>\nwants them to become.<br \/>\nAnd that&#8217;s really what we&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>61<br \/>\n00:03:43,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:46,700<br \/>\ngoing to see today.<br \/>\nThat Elijah had that base <\/p>\n<p>62<br \/>\n00:03:46,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:49,500<br \/>\ncharacter that base not in a bad<br \/>\nway. <\/p>\n<p>63<br \/>\n00:03:49,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:53,900<br \/>\nThe the the character that he<br \/>\nhad was the kind of character <\/p>\n<p>64<br \/>\n00:03:53,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:03:58,100<br \/>\nthat God looks at and says I can<br \/>\nwork with that. <\/p>\n<p>65<br \/>\n00:03:59,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:02,200<br \/>\nThat is what I need someone to<br \/>\nbe God. <\/p>\n<p>66<br \/>\n00:04:02,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:07,200<br \/>\nLooks for someone who will hold<br \/>\nto him tenaciously, no matter <\/p>\n<p>67<br \/>\n00:04:07,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:09,200<br \/>\nhow much things don&#8217;t make<br \/>\nsense. <\/p>\n<p>68<br \/>\n00:04:10,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:13,800<br \/>\nNo matter how much our schema<br \/>\ndoesn&#8217;t work, no matter how much<\/p>\n<p>69<br \/>\n00:04:13,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:16,100<br \/>\nwe say, we don&#8217;t know what to<br \/>\ndo, but we&#8217;re going to do <\/p>\n<p>70<br \/>\n00:04:16,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:20,300<br \/>\nsomething, right?<br \/>\nThis is what God looks for and <\/p>\n<p>71<br \/>\n00:04:20,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:22,900<br \/>\nhe says he can work with that,<br \/>\nbecause he can take your <\/p>\n<p>72<br \/>\n00:04:22,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:26,700<br \/>\nsomething that you do.<br \/>\nAnd even if it&#8217;s not right, he <\/p>\n<p>73<br \/>\n00:04:26,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:30,200<br \/>\ncan use it.<br \/>\nSo that I think is the key piece<\/p>\n<p>74<br \/>\n00:04:30,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:33,100<br \/>\nthat we see here with Elijah.<br \/>\nSo yes, I acknowledge I have <\/p>\n<p>75<br \/>\n00:04:33,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:36,000<br \/>\nbeen harsh on him but I think<br \/>\nit&#8217;s because over the last few <\/p>\n<p>76<br \/>\n00:04:36,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:38,900<br \/>\ndays what we&#8217;ve seen is he is<br \/>\nslowly changing. <\/p>\n<p>77<br \/>\n00:04:39,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:43,300<br \/>\nAnd today we&#8217;re going to see the<br \/>\nfinal change. <\/p>\n<p>78<br \/>\n00:04:43,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:48,800<br \/>\nGod is not concerned.<br \/>\nWith all the little <\/p>\n<p>79<br \/>\n00:04:48,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:51,400<br \/>\naccomplishments we make the<br \/>\nthings that seem like such a big<\/p>\n<p>80<br \/>\n00:04:51,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:56,300<br \/>\ndeal to us.<br \/>\nBecause he&#8217;s preparing us for <\/p>\n<p>81<br \/>\n00:04:56,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:04:58,000<br \/>\nwhat&#8217;s to come.<br \/>\nRight. <\/p>\n<p>82<br \/>\n00:04:58,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:01,900<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s only the beginning and that<br \/>\nis the way that God sees things.<\/p>\n<p>83<br \/>\n00:05:02,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:07,300<br \/>\nHe sees that we every day are<br \/>\nbeing prepared for that work of <\/p>\n<p>84<br \/>\n00:05:07,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:10,600<br \/>\nthe kingdom.<br \/>\nAnd so when Elijah prays turn <\/p>\n<p>85<br \/>\n00:05:10,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:13,700<br \/>\ntheir hearts again.<br \/>\nGod says, oh don&#8217;t worry, I will<\/p>\n<p>86<br \/>\n00:05:14,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:20,100<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s going to be in thousands of<br \/>\nyears. but for you, it&#8217;s just <\/p>\n<p>87<br \/>\n00:05:20,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:24,400<br \/>\nthe beginning.<br \/>\nSo why did Elijah run to Mount <\/p>\n<p>88<br \/>\n00:05:24,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:26,700<br \/>\nHoreb?<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s our question here or <\/p>\n<p>89<br \/>\n00:05:26,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:31,700<br \/>\nMount Sinai, so it appears like<br \/>\nthe nation has converted, right?<\/p>\n<p>90<br \/>\n00:05:31,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:34,200<br \/>\nElijah has gone through.<br \/>\nHe kills all the prophets of <\/p>\n<p>91<br \/>\n00:05:34,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:35,700<br \/>\nBaal.<br \/>\nThey&#8217;re gone. <\/p>\n<p>92<br \/>\n00:05:35,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:37,700<br \/>\nDoesn&#8217;t look like there&#8217;s going<br \/>\nto be any more problems. <\/p>\n<p>93<br \/>\n00:05:38,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:42,500<br \/>\nSo, he goes to Ahab.<br \/>\nAnd First Kings, 18 41, to 42 <\/p>\n<p>94<br \/>\n00:05:42,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:46,900<br \/>\nand he says, to Ahab, go and eat<br \/>\nand drink. <\/p>\n<p>95<br \/>\n00:05:48,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:53,700<br \/>\nNow, just think about that.<br \/>\nBecause there was no rain yet. <\/p>\n<p>96<br \/>\n00:05:55,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:05:58,300<br \/>\nAnd yet he&#8217;s telling Ahab to eat<br \/>\nand to drink. <\/p>\n<p>97<br \/>\n00:05:58,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:01,500<br \/>\nSo they still would have been<br \/>\nprecious resources and it Elijah<\/p>\n<p>98<br \/>\n00:06:01,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:04,400<br \/>\nbelieves so strongly.<br \/>\nHere comes the rain. <\/p>\n<p>99<br \/>\n00:06:04,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:10,100<br \/>\nHe says they have go eat and<br \/>\ndrink, it&#8217;s coming. in verses 43<\/p>\n<p>100<br \/>\n00:06:10,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:13,000<br \/>\nto 44, you have an interesting<br \/>\nlittle situation, a few of you <\/p>\n<p>101<br \/>\n00:06:13,008 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:17,200<br \/>\nhave talked to me about this,<br \/>\nElijah goes and he prays for the<\/p>\n<p>102<br \/>\n00:06:17,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:20,000<br \/>\nrain.<br \/>\nHow many times does he have to <\/p>\n<p>103<br \/>\n00:06:20,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:23,600<br \/>\npray?<br \/>\nSeven times. <\/p>\n<p>104<br \/>\n00:06:24,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:28,500<br \/>\nSo you&#8217;ve praised seven times<br \/>\nnow that it will rain and <\/p>\n<p>105<br \/>\n00:06:28,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:31,000<br \/>\nthere&#8217;s a few different<br \/>\npossibilities here as to why an <\/p>\n<p>106<br \/>\n00:06:31,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:32,600<br \/>\nhour.<br \/>\nMaybe I just didn&#8217;t even find <\/p>\n<p>107<br \/>\n00:06:32,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:34,300<br \/>\none of them.<br \/>\nBut here&#8217;s, here&#8217;s, here&#8217;s some <\/p>\n<p>108<br \/>\n00:06:34,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:38,100<br \/>\nof the thoughts I have as to why<br \/>\nperhaps Elijah had to pray the <\/p>\n<p>109<br \/>\n00:06:38,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:41,700<br \/>\nseven times first, it&#8217;s almost<br \/>\nlike a question of do you really<\/p>\n<p>110<br \/>\n00:06:41,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:44,100<br \/>\nwant this?<br \/>\nYou know, you, you pray it for <\/p>\n<p>111<br \/>\n00:06:44,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:47,800<br \/>\nthe drought to happen?<br \/>\nProve to me, that this is what <\/p>\n<p>112<br \/>\n00:06:47,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:50,900<br \/>\nyou really want.<br \/>\nOne, two, three, four, five, <\/p>\n<p>113<br \/>\n00:06:50,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:53,000<br \/>\nsix, seven.<br \/>\nAnd you sort of see this, by the<\/p>\n<p>114<br \/>\n00:06:53,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:55,900<br \/>\nway and James is commentary in<br \/>\nJames chapter 5. <\/p>\n<p>115<br \/>\n00:06:56,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:06:59,600<br \/>\nWhen he says, the effectual<br \/>\nfervent prayer of a righteous <\/p>\n<p>116<br \/>\n00:06:59,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:03,600<br \/>\nman avails much, he refers to<br \/>\nElijah praying that it won&#8217;t <\/p>\n<p>117<br \/>\n00:07:03,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:05,300<br \/>\nrain and then praying that it<br \/>\nwill rain. <\/p>\n<p>118<br \/>\n00:07:06,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:08,400<br \/>\nIf you look at that in the<br \/>\nGreek, I don&#8217;t know if you&#8217;ve <\/p>\n<p>119<br \/>\n00:07:08,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:13,000<br \/>\never noticed that it sounds sort<br \/>\nof redundant, the effectual <\/p>\n<p>120<br \/>\n00:07:13,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:15,600<br \/>\nfervent prayer of a righteous<br \/>\nman avails much that&#8217;s like <\/p>\n<p>121<br \/>\n00:07:15,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:19,200<br \/>\nsaying Saying doing good, things<br \/>\nis doing good things, you know, <\/p>\n<p>122<br \/>\n00:07:19,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:22,000<br \/>\nsomething like that, that the<br \/>\neffective work you do is <\/p>\n<p>123<br \/>\n00:07:22,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:25,600<br \/>\neffective, right?<br \/>\nLike if you look at it in the <\/p>\n<p>124<br \/>\n00:07:25,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:29,400<br \/>\nGreek, it&#8217;s a little bit<br \/>\ndifferent, your verb there is <\/p>\n<p>125<br \/>\n00:07:29,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:31,600<br \/>\npresent tense which is typically<br \/>\ncontinuous. <\/p>\n<p>126<br \/>\n00:07:32,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:38,200<br \/>\nSo what you get is the fervent<br \/>\nprayer, there&#8217;s that Zeal, the <\/p>\n<p>127<br \/>\n00:07:38,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:40,100<br \/>\nfervent prayer of a righteous<br \/>\nman. <\/p>\n<p>128<br \/>\n00:07:41,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:44,300<br \/>\nIs highly effective as it is<br \/>\nworking. <\/p>\n<p>129<br \/>\n00:07:45,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:47,300<br \/>\nAnd you&#8217;ll notice that a lot of<br \/>\nnewer translations, get that <\/p>\n<p>130<br \/>\n00:07:47,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:50,500<br \/>\nsense of that continuous idea as<br \/>\nit&#8217;s working or as it&#8217;s being <\/p>\n<p>131<br \/>\n00:07:50,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:53,000<br \/>\nprayed.<br \/>\nSo you can see that. <\/p>\n<p>132<br \/>\n00:07:53,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:07:56,100<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s this idea of Elijah<br \/>\nhaving to pray multiple times <\/p>\n<p>133<br \/>\n00:07:56,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:00,700<br \/>\nfor those, the one thing To get<br \/>\nacross this idea. <\/p>\n<p>134<br \/>\n00:08:00,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:04,700<br \/>\nThat here&#8217;s the prayer working.<br \/>\nHere is me showing how much I <\/p>\n<p>135<br \/>\n00:08:04,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:08,000<br \/>\nreally want this So that&#8217;s one<br \/>\npossibility. <\/p>\n<p>136<br \/>\n00:08:08,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:12,700<br \/>\nOne possibility is to why he had<br \/>\nto pray seven times. <\/p>\n<p>137<br \/>\n00:08:13,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:16,400<br \/>\nOkay.<br \/>\nThe other could just be, does he<\/p>\n<p>138<br \/>\n00:08:16,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:18,100<br \/>\nreally want it for the sake of<br \/>\nthe people? <\/p>\n<p>139<br \/>\n00:08:18,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:21,300<br \/>\nDoes he really want them?<br \/>\nDoes he really believe that <\/p>\n<p>140<br \/>\n00:08:21,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:25,600<br \/>\nthey&#8217;ve changed?<br \/>\nSo finally, the rain comes <\/p>\n<p>141<br \/>\n00:08:26,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:29,800<br \/>\nElijah tells Ahab get in your<br \/>\nchariot and go and he does <\/p>\n<p>142<br \/>\n00:08:29,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:34,100<br \/>\nsomething fascinating.<br \/>\nLifts up his robe, you remember?<\/p>\n<p>143<br \/>\n00:08:34,799 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:36,500<br \/>\nAnd he runs in front of the<br \/>\nChariot. <\/p>\n<p>144<br \/>\n00:08:36,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:37,900<br \/>\nWe like that.<br \/>\nAs, you know, one of our <\/p>\n<p>145<br \/>\n00:08:38,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:40,400<br \/>\nchildren&#8217;s stories, he runs in<br \/>\nfront of the chariot. <\/p>\n<p>146<br \/>\n00:08:41,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:46,800<br \/>\nNow, what I think we might miss<br \/>\nthough, is that running in front<\/p>\n<p>147<br \/>\n00:08:46,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:50,600<br \/>\nof someone&#8217;s Chariot?<br \/>\nOften meant something back then.<\/p>\n<p>148<br \/>\n00:08:52,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:56,100<br \/>\nNow, we tend to see it as, you<br \/>\nknow, this amazing miracle and <\/p>\n<p>149<br \/>\n00:08:56,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:08:59,100<br \/>\nit probably perhaps was<br \/>\ndepending on how fast they have <\/p>\n<p>150<br \/>\n00:08:59,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:01,000<br \/>\nwas driving.<br \/>\nWe don&#8217;t know if he was a <\/p>\n<p>151<br \/>\n00:09:01,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:05,700<br \/>\nreckless driver or not but but<br \/>\nthis idea of running in front of<\/p>\n<p>152<br \/>\n00:09:05,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:08,300<br \/>\na chariot is actually a fairly<br \/>\nbiblical kind of thing. <\/p>\n<p>153<br \/>\n00:09:08,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:11,900<br \/>\nAnybody know who would typically<br \/>\nrun in front of Periods. <\/p>\n<p>154<br \/>\n00:09:13,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:16,800<br \/>\nDon&#8217;t say fast people.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s not the that&#8217;s not the <\/p>\n<p>155<br \/>\n00:09:16,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:19,800<br \/>\nanswer.<br \/>\nThe answer is that it was <\/p>\n<p>156<br \/>\n00:09:19,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:23,100<br \/>\ntypically the servants.<br \/>\nSo, I&#8217;ll show that to you. <\/p>\n<p>157<br \/>\n00:09:23,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:27,600<br \/>\nBut apparently, I got a little<br \/>\nexcited here and I jumped a <\/p>\n<p>158<br \/>\n00:09:27,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:29,500<br \/>\ncouple of slides.<br \/>\nSo let&#8217;s talk about this one <\/p>\n<p>159<br \/>\n00:09:29,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:31,900<br \/>\nfirst, I want to just point out<br \/>\nto you that a have goes to <\/p>\n<p>160<br \/>\n00:09:31,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:36,800<br \/>\nJezreel, which is not the<br \/>\ncapital So keep that in mind. <\/p>\n<p>161<br \/>\n00:09:36,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:39,500<br \/>\nThe capital is Samaria.<br \/>\nFirst king 1629. <\/p>\n<p>162<br \/>\n00:09:40,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:42,700<br \/>\nSo he doesn&#8217;t go to the capital<br \/>\nwhich is where you would expect <\/p>\n<p>163<br \/>\n00:09:42,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:45,300<br \/>\nhim to go and where he generally<br \/>\nseems to be. <\/p>\n<p>164<br \/>\n00:09:46,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:49,600<br \/>\nInstead he goes to Jezreel and<br \/>\nthat appears to be were Jezebel <\/p>\n<p>165<br \/>\n00:09:49,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:53,600<br \/>\nwas so it&#8217;s one of those things<br \/>\nthat you start to maybe see a <\/p>\n<p>166<br \/>\n00:09:53,608 &#8211;&gt; 00:09:56,900<br \/>\nlittle bit of where ahab&#8217;s mind<br \/>\nis that we&#8217;re going to see more <\/p>\n<p>167<br \/>\n00:09:56,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:00,200<br \/>\nof it as he talks to Jezebel,<br \/>\nbut he&#8217;s not going back to the <\/p>\n<p>168<br \/>\n00:10:00,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:03,000<br \/>\ncapital to say, let&#8217;s make some<br \/>\nreforms. <\/p>\n<p>169<br \/>\n00:10:03,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:06,800<br \/>\nHe goes back to his wife to say,<br \/>\nhere&#8217;s all the bad things that <\/p>\n<p>170<br \/>\n00:10:06,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:09,700<br \/>\nhappened, right?<br \/>\nSo that&#8217;s what&#8217;s happening. <\/p>\n<p>171<br \/>\n00:10:09,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:12,900<br \/>\nHe goes to her Jezebel is to<br \/>\ntell her now. <\/p>\n<p>172<br \/>\n00:10:13,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:17,200<br \/>\nElijah is running as well.<br \/>\nAnd that&#8217;s because it&#8217;s what <\/p>\n<p>173<br \/>\n00:10:17,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:22,100<br \/>\nservants did and that is a<br \/>\nfascinating piece of this story.<\/p>\n<p>174<br \/>\n00:10:23,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:26,600<br \/>\nElijah, all of a sudden.<br \/>\nI mean, wasn&#8217;t this what he <\/p>\n<p>175<br \/>\n00:10:26,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:30,600<br \/>\ncondemned Obadiah?<br \/>\nFor a few verses prior he <\/p>\n<p>176<br \/>\n00:10:30,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:34,100<br \/>\ncondemns Obadiah for it and now<br \/>\nthis is what he&#8217;s doing, why the<\/p>\n<p>177<br \/>\n00:10:34,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:40,000<br \/>\nchange because Elijah is<br \/>\nconvinced ah a Habs going to <\/p>\n<p>178<br \/>\n00:10:40,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:43,300<br \/>\nJezreel because he&#8217;s going to<br \/>\ntalk to Jezebel. <\/p>\n<p>179<br \/>\n00:10:43,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:46,300<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re going to change this.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m going to convert Jezebel to <\/p>\n<p>180<br \/>\n00:10:47,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:49,500<br \/>\nAnd everything&#8217;s going to be<br \/>\nfixed. <\/p>\n<p>181<br \/>\n00:10:49,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:52,000<br \/>\nFinally.<br \/>\nWhat he&#8217;s been waiting for for <\/p>\n<p>182<br \/>\n00:10:52,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:10:55,700<br \/>\nyears and years and years, it&#8217;s<br \/>\nall come together. <\/p>\n<p>183<br \/>\n00:10:58,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:00,600<br \/>\nSo here&#8217;s some verses for you.<br \/>\nHow about servants running <\/p>\n<p>184<br \/>\n00:11:00,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:02,600<br \/>\nbefore chariots?<br \/>\nSo Elijah is very much <\/p>\n<p>185<br \/>\n00:11:02,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:06,000<br \/>\npresenting himself as a servant.<br \/>\nFirst Samuel 811. <\/p>\n<p>186<br \/>\n00:11:06,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:08,100<br \/>\nThis is where Israel asks for a<br \/>\nking. <\/p>\n<p>187<br \/>\n00:11:08,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:13,400<br \/>\nGod says that the king will take<br \/>\nyour children to run before his <\/p>\n<p>188<br \/>\n00:11:13,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:19,000<br \/>\nchariots second, Samuel 15 verse<br \/>\n1, Absalom, got a chariot and <\/p>\n<p>189<br \/>\n00:11:19,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:22,500<br \/>\nhorses and fifty men to run<br \/>\nbefore him first Kings wonders, <\/p>\n<p>190<br \/>\n00:11:22,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:26,500<br \/>\n51 adonijah, tries to take the<br \/>\nthrone, he says, I will be king <\/p>\n<p>191<br \/>\n00:11:27,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:29,800<br \/>\nhe prepared for himself.<br \/>\nChariots and Horsemen and fifty <\/p>\n<p>192<br \/>\n00:11:29,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:35,000<br \/>\nmen to run before him.<br \/>\nSo this would have been a highly<\/p>\n<p>193<br \/>\n00:11:35,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:43,800<br \/>\npublic Kind of spectacle. so,<br \/>\nwhen we look at Elijah&#8217;s, Frame <\/p>\n<p>194<br \/>\n00:11:43,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:48,000<br \/>\nof mind when he goes down to<br \/>\nMount Sinai, I think this is an <\/p>\n<p>195<br \/>\n00:11:48,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:51,100<br \/>\nimportant piece of it.<br \/>\nHe has stood so strong against <\/p>\n<p>196<br \/>\n00:11:51,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:57,200<br \/>\nAhab for so many years and now<br \/>\nhe runs in front of his Chariot.<\/p>\n<p>197<br \/>\n00:11:57,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:11:59,600<br \/>\nCan you picture the people<br \/>\nseeing that say, Hey, That&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>198<br \/>\n00:11:59,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:02,100<br \/>\nElijah.<br \/>\nYou know, he&#8217;s in front of it <\/p>\n<p>199<br \/>\n00:12:02,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:05,100<br \/>\nhas chair.<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s a have servant now like <\/p>\n<p>200<br \/>\n00:12:05,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:08,300<br \/>\nlooked at the, the king and the<br \/>\nQueen and Elijah they&#8217;ve all <\/p>\n<p>201<br \/>\n00:12:08,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:17,000<br \/>\ncome together.<br \/>\nOkay, so Elijah thinks that Ahab<\/p>\n<p>202<br \/>\n00:12:17,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:19,800<br \/>\nhas converted.<br \/>\nHe thinks then he&#8217;s going to <\/p>\n<p>203<br \/>\n00:12:19,808 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:21,900<br \/>\ntake part in Jezebel&#8217;s<br \/>\nconversion. <\/p>\n<p>204<br \/>\n00:12:21,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:25,400<br \/>\nHowever, when Ahab begins to<br \/>\ntalk and First Kings 19, we <\/p>\n<p>205<br \/>\n00:12:25,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:28,800<br \/>\nrealize it&#8217;s not quite what<br \/>\nElijah expected. <\/p>\n<p>206<br \/>\n00:12:29,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:34,000<br \/>\nNotice, this a have told Jezebel<br \/>\nall Elijah had done and how he <\/p>\n<p>207<br \/>\n00:12:34,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:35,800<br \/>\nhad killed all the prophets with<br \/>\nthe sword. <\/p>\n<p>208<br \/>\n00:12:35,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:40,400<br \/>\nSo that&#8217;s the summation by Ahab.<br \/>\nJust think about this. <\/p>\n<p>209<br \/>\n00:12:40,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:42,700<br \/>\nThere are a lot of other things.<br \/>\nThey have could have said, <\/p>\n<p>210<br \/>\n00:12:42,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:45,600<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nMaybe something about like a <\/p>\n<p>211<br \/>\n00:12:45,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:54,100<br \/>\nmiracle fire bail, didn&#8217;t do<br \/>\nanything rain, right? <\/p>\n<p>212<br \/>\n00:12:55,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:12:59,700<br \/>\nAnd steady says, Elijah did a<br \/>\nbunch of things and the craziest<\/p>\n<p>213<br \/>\n00:12:59,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:01,300<br \/>\nthing he did is he killed all<br \/>\nthe prophets. <\/p>\n<p>214<br \/>\n00:13:03,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:08,600<br \/>\nYou also notice that he<br \/>\ncompletely ignores all the <\/p>\n<p>215<br \/>\n00:13:08,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:11,300<br \/>\nprophets of Yahweh.<br \/>\nHe just says he killed all the <\/p>\n<p>216<br \/>\n00:13:11,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:15,700<br \/>\nprophets now really he only<br \/>\nkilled the prophets of Baal but <\/p>\n<p>217<br \/>\n00:13:15,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:19,200<br \/>\nin a halves mind what you get<br \/>\nhere is? <\/p>\n<p>218<br \/>\n00:13:19,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:22,200<br \/>\nThere was absolutely no<br \/>\nconversion. <\/p>\n<p>219<br \/>\n00:13:23,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:25,900<br \/>\nHe saw the prophets of Baal as<br \/>\nthese are the prophets. <\/p>\n<p>220<br \/>\n00:13:27,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:29,500<br \/>\nHe goes to Jezebel and he says,<br \/>\nlet me tell you about my <\/p>\n<p>221<br \/>\n00:13:29,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:33,100<br \/>\nterrible day.<br \/>\nThe miracle didn&#8217;t do anything, <\/p>\n<p>222<br \/>\n00:13:33,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:38,100<br \/>\nhe doesn&#8217;t even talk about it.<br \/>\nHe doesn&#8217;t talk about the fire. <\/p>\n<p>223<br \/>\n00:13:38,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:40,900<br \/>\nHe doesn&#8217;t talk about the rain<br \/>\ninstead. <\/p>\n<p>224<br \/>\n00:13:41,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:43,200<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s now we gotta get some more<br \/>\nprofits. <\/p>\n<p>225<br \/>\n00:13:44,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:47,800<br \/>\nIsn&#8217;t that fascinating?<br \/>\nThis is, this is how we work, <\/p>\n<p>226<br \/>\n00:13:48,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:50,500<br \/>\nyou know, sometimes we say<br \/>\nthings like, if only, I could <\/p>\n<p>227<br \/>\n00:13:50,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:54,800<br \/>\nsee a miracle, But that&#8217;s not<br \/>\nwhat miracles do right <\/p>\n<p>228<br \/>\n00:13:54,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:56,900<br \/>\nbiblically, you?<br \/>\nLook at all the people who saw <\/p>\n<p>229<br \/>\n00:13:56,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:13:59,700<br \/>\nMiracles and then turn away,<br \/>\nright? <\/p>\n<p>230<br \/>\n00:13:59,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:02,800<br \/>\nMiracles are not what create<br \/>\nbelief. <\/p>\n<p>231<br \/>\n00:14:04,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:08,100<br \/>\nMiracles.<br \/>\nConfirm the belief that was <\/p>\n<p>232<br \/>\n00:14:08,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:11,800<br \/>\nalready there.<br \/>\nThey confirm the word. <\/p>\n<p>233<br \/>\n00:14:14,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:18,200<br \/>\nNow we get another insight into<br \/>\nahab&#8217;s mind. <\/p>\n<p>234<br \/>\n00:14:18,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:22,900<br \/>\nIn fact, based on what Jezebel<br \/>\nsays Jezebel makes a vow here. <\/p>\n<p>235<br \/>\n00:14:23,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:25,000<br \/>\nSo may the gods do to me and<br \/>\nmore. <\/p>\n<p>236<br \/>\n00:14:25,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:29,900<br \/>\nAlso if that if I do not make<br \/>\nyour life as the life of one of <\/p>\n<p>237<br \/>\n00:14:29,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:32,800<br \/>\nthem by this time tomorrow.<br \/>\nNow keep in mind that Elijah&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>238<br \/>\n00:14:32,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:36,200<br \/>\nat Jezreel, right?<br \/>\nSo he&#8217;s waiting for a messenger <\/p>\n<p>239<br \/>\n00:14:36,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:39,100<br \/>\nto come to tell him.<br \/>\nThe queen will see you now, <\/p>\n<p>240<br \/>\n00:14:39,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:42,300<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nBecause he&#8217;s ready to give his <\/p>\n<p>241<br \/>\n00:14:42,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:45,200<br \/>\nSpiel on.<br \/>\nWhy bail didn&#8217;t work? <\/p>\n<p>242<br \/>\n00:14:45,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:47,200<br \/>\nWhy?<br \/>\nThe rain had come all of this, <\/p>\n<p>243<br \/>\n00:14:47,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:48,800<br \/>\nhe&#8217;s ready to bring about<br \/>\nconversion. <\/p>\n<p>244<br \/>\n00:14:48,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:51,400<br \/>\nThe messenger comes and Elijah<br \/>\nsays oh is it my turn? <\/p>\n<p>245<br \/>\n00:14:51,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:55,300<br \/>\nAnd the messenger says you&#8217;re<br \/>\ngonna die right analyze. <\/p>\n<p>246<br \/>\n00:14:55,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:14:59,100<br \/>\nJust like Well, that wasn&#8217;t what<br \/>\nI was expecting. <\/p>\n<p>247<br \/>\n00:14:59,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:01,800<br \/>\nThat that&#8217;s not how it&#8217;s<br \/>\nsupposed to go. <\/p>\n<p>248<br \/>\n00:15:02,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:05,700<br \/>\nNow, we get that sense of where<br \/>\nahab&#8217;s at because he&#8217;s standing <\/p>\n<p>249<br \/>\n00:15:05,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:11,000<br \/>\nthere, hearing this Val.<br \/>\nAnd under the law and under <\/p>\n<p>250<br \/>\n00:15:11,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:13,500<br \/>\nprobably a number of patriarchal<br \/>\nsocieties. <\/p>\n<p>251<br \/>\n00:15:15,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:18,700<br \/>\nThe husband could hear his wife<br \/>\ngive a vow Numbers Chapter, 30 <\/p>\n<p>252<br \/>\n00:15:18,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:21,900<br \/>\nverses 6 to 15 and could say,<br \/>\nyou know what I&#8217;m negating that <\/p>\n<p>253<br \/>\n00:15:21,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:23,600<br \/>\nvow.<br \/>\nLike I don&#8217;t want our family to <\/p>\n<p>254<br \/>\n00:15:23,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:25,800<br \/>\nbe involved in that we&#8217;re not<br \/>\nwe&#8217;re not going to do it. <\/p>\n<p>255<br \/>\n00:15:25,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:31,200<br \/>\nA have says nothing because this<br \/>\nis where he&#8217;s at no conversion. <\/p>\n<p>256<br \/>\n00:15:31,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:35,700<br \/>\nHe came to tell Jezebel because<br \/>\nJezebel was the doer, right? <\/p>\n<p>257<br \/>\n00:15:35,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:41,300<br \/>\nAhab was the whiner.<br \/>\nSo Jezebel was the doer and he <\/p>\n<p>258<br \/>\n00:15:41,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:44,000<br \/>\nwanted to tell her so that<br \/>\nsomething could happen and it <\/p>\n<p>259<br \/>\n00:15:44,008 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:49,800<br \/>\nwould Ahab was not converted.<br \/>\nHey, Elijah is now going to die <\/p>\n<p>260<br \/>\n00:15:49,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:52,500<br \/>\nand so you can sense a lie to<br \/>\ntrying to process all of this. <\/p>\n<p>261<br \/>\n00:15:52,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:15:57,100<br \/>\nWe talked about it on Tuesday.<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s trying to his schema has <\/p>\n<p>262<br \/>\n00:15:57,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:01,400<br \/>\njust totally Fallen apart.<br \/>\nWhy is there rain if Ahab didn&#8217;t<\/p>\n<p>263<br \/>\n00:16:01,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:03,700<br \/>\nconvert?<br \/>\nDoes this mean the people didn&#8217;t<\/p>\n<p>264<br \/>\n00:16:03,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:06,700<br \/>\nconvert?<br \/>\nWhat, what is going on here? <\/p>\n<p>265<br \/>\n00:16:06,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:10,900<br \/>\nDid I ask for a drought?<br \/>\nAnd it didn&#8217;t do anything. <\/p>\n<p>266<br \/>\n00:16:11,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:14,800<br \/>\nDid I ask for a drought and a<br \/>\nbunch of people simply died <\/p>\n<p>267<br \/>\n00:16:15,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:19,000<br \/>\nbecause of what I asked for now,<br \/>\nyou can see him struggling to <\/p>\n<p>268<br \/>\n00:16:19,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:22,900<br \/>\nput this together and maybe you<br \/>\nhave these kind of moments, you <\/p>\n<p>269<br \/>\n00:16:22,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:25,600<br \/>\nknow, where just, it feels like<br \/>\nnothing makes sense. <\/p>\n<p>270<br \/>\n00:16:26,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:28,200<br \/>\nYou can&#8217;t, you can&#8217;t make sense<br \/>\nout of what&#8217;s in front of you. <\/p>\n<p>271<br \/>\n00:16:28,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:31,100<br \/>\nLike, like, you felt like it<br \/>\nmade sense at one point, but <\/p>\n<p>272<br \/>\n00:16:31,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:34,500<br \/>\nthen something happens and now<br \/>\nit doesn&#8217;t anymore, and you&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>273<br \/>\n00:16:34,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:38,200<br \/>\ntrying to fit all the pieces you<br \/>\nhave into the view that you have<\/p>\n<p>274<br \/>\n00:16:38,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:39,300<br \/>\nof the world and it doesn&#8217;t<br \/>\nwork. <\/p>\n<p>275<br \/>\n00:16:39,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:43,000<br \/>\nWork. and so sometimes in those<br \/>\nJeffers desperate situations, <\/p>\n<p>276<br \/>\n00:16:43,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:46,300<br \/>\nyou try to grab onto anything,<br \/>\nyou can, anything that does make<\/p>\n<p>277<br \/>\n00:16:46,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:49,000<br \/>\nsense, I think that&#8217;s what we<br \/>\nsee. <\/p>\n<p>278<br \/>\n00:16:49,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:54,800<br \/>\nElijah doing, not only that.<br \/>\nI would suggest there was <\/p>\n<p>279<br \/>\n00:16:54,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:16:57,700<br \/>\nprobably some guilt to about<br \/>\nrunning in front of ahab&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>280<br \/>\n00:16:57,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:00,700<br \/>\nChariot.<br \/>\nYou know, how could I have done <\/p>\n<p>281<br \/>\n00:17:00,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:02,600<br \/>\nthat?<br \/>\nHow could I have so <\/p>\n<p>282<br \/>\n00:17:02,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:05,400<br \/>\nmisunderstood him and what he<br \/>\nwas thinking? <\/p>\n<p>283<br \/>\n00:17:07,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:10,099<br \/>\nSo, First Kings, 19 3, he<br \/>\ndoesn&#8217;t know what to do. <\/p>\n<p>284<br \/>\n00:17:10,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:13,900<br \/>\nSo he runs 90 miles to<br \/>\nBeersheba. <\/p>\n<p>285<br \/>\n00:17:15,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:18,500<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s a big run, even for my<br \/>\nbrother-in-law. <\/p>\n<p>286<br \/>\n00:17:19,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:24,300<br \/>\nHe goes 90 miles to Beersheba<br \/>\nand he goes into the wilderness.<\/p>\n<p>287<br \/>\n00:17:25,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:28,200<br \/>\nHe doesn&#8217;t know what he&#8217;s doing.<br \/>\nHe just he runs and he&#8217;s not <\/p>\n<p>288<br \/>\n00:17:28,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:30,900<br \/>\ngoing anywhere, right?<br \/>\nHe runs and he goes to a tree a <\/p>\n<p>289<br \/>\n00:17:30,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:35,800<br \/>\nbroom tree and he sits there.<br \/>\nNot sure what to do. <\/p>\n<p>290<br \/>\n00:17:36,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:38,800<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s almost like he&#8217;s gotten to<br \/>\nthis point and he&#8217;s so <\/p>\n<p>291<br \/>\n00:17:38,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:42,500<br \/>\nfrustrated that he&#8217;s going to<br \/>\nstarve himself. <\/p>\n<p>292<br \/>\n00:17:42,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:43,900<br \/>\nDo you remember what happens<br \/>\nnext? <\/p>\n<p>293<br \/>\n00:17:45,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:49,300<br \/>\nAn angel appears and the angel<br \/>\nhas to say, Elijah. <\/p>\n<p>294<br \/>\n00:17:50,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:54,000<br \/>\nEat.<br \/>\nYou need to eat this food, <\/p>\n<p>295<br \/>\n00:17:54,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:56,700<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s he just doesn&#8217;t know what <\/p>\n<p>296<br \/>\n00:17:56,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:17:57,400<br \/>\nto do.<br \/>\nHe can&#8217;t. <\/p>\n<p>297<br \/>\n00:17:57,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:05,300<br \/>\nHe can&#8217;t make sense of anything.<br \/>\nBut as he gets this, As he meets<\/p>\n<p>298<br \/>\n00:18:05,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:11,100<br \/>\nwith this angel.<br \/>\nI think, perhaps, He gets an <\/p>\n<p>299<br \/>\n00:18:11,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:14,800<br \/>\nidea.<br \/>\nSo there he is sitting under the<\/p>\n<p>300<br \/>\n00:18:14,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:19,200<br \/>\nbroom tree.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s this weird wrote em in <\/p>\n<p>301<br \/>\n00:18:19,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:21,800<br \/>\nHebrew.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s only use four times one <\/p>\n<p>302<br \/>\n00:18:21,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:23,600<br \/>\ntime.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s used in job, appears to be <\/p>\n<p>303<br \/>\n00:18:23,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:26,600<br \/>\nunrelated, maybe you can find a<br \/>\nconnection, I don&#8217;t know, but <\/p>\n<p>304<br \/>\n00:18:26,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:30,600<br \/>\nthe final instance, in the<br \/>\nPsalms, I think might show where<\/p>\n<p>305<br \/>\n00:18:30,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:33,800<br \/>\nElijah was at at the time, you<br \/>\nknow, there&#8217;s got to be a reason<\/p>\n<p>306<br \/>\n00:18:33,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:35,700<br \/>\nthat scripture tells us it was a<br \/>\nbroom tree. <\/p>\n<p>307<br \/>\n00:18:36,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:41,100<br \/>\nSo it&#8217;s interesting that the<br \/>\ninstance in Psalms says, this in<\/p>\n<p>308<br \/>\n00:18:41,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:42,700<br \/>\nmy distress, I called to the<br \/>\nLord. <\/p>\n<p>309<br \/>\n00:18:43,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:46,100<br \/>\nAnd he answered me.<br \/>\nDeliver Me O Lord from lying <\/p>\n<p>310<br \/>\n00:18:46,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:50,200<br \/>\nlips from a deceitful tongue.<br \/>\nWhat shall be given to you? <\/p>\n<p>311<br \/>\n00:18:50,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:51,500<br \/>\nAnd what more shall be done to<br \/>\nyou. <\/p>\n<p>312<br \/>\n00:18:51,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:56,200<br \/>\nYou deceitful tongue a warrior<br \/>\nsharp Arrows with glowing coals <\/p>\n<p>313<br \/>\n00:18:56,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:18:59,000<br \/>\nof the broom tree.<br \/>\nWoe to me that I sojourn in <\/p>\n<p>314<br \/>\n00:18:59,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:01,700<br \/>\nmeshech that I dwell.<br \/>\nAmong the tents of kedar keytar <\/p>\n<p>315<br \/>\n00:19:01,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:04,200<br \/>\nwas known as a violent Society,<br \/>\nright? <\/p>\n<p>316<br \/>\n00:19:04,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:07,500<br \/>\nSo this, you can imagine Elijah<br \/>\nfeeling this way, too long. <\/p>\n<p>317<br \/>\n00:19:07,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:11,200<br \/>\nHave I hella had my dwelling<br \/>\namong those who hate peace. <\/p>\n<p>318<br \/>\n00:19:11,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:16,300<br \/>\nI am for peace, but when I<br \/>\nspeak, they are for war and <\/p>\n<p>319<br \/>\n00:19:16,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:20,300<br \/>\nthere&#8217;s reflecting that feeling<br \/>\nof aliveness Just saying you are<\/p>\n<p>320<br \/>\n00:19:20,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:22,900<br \/>\nthe troubler of Israel, right?<br \/>\nI want peace. <\/p>\n<p>321<br \/>\n00:19:23,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:26,500<br \/>\nThis is what I&#8217;ve been trying to<br \/>\nbring out and I can&#8217;t make this <\/p>\n<p>322<br \/>\n00:19:26,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:29,300<br \/>\nwork.<br \/>\nAnd so he&#8217;s sitting there with <\/p>\n<p>323<br \/>\n00:19:29,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:34,700<br \/>\nthis, this feeling of despair.<br \/>\nNot sure what to do. <\/p>\n<p>324<br \/>\n00:19:34,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:40,000<br \/>\nAnd yet the irony is, if this<br \/>\ndoes reflect his thinking, he <\/p>\n<p>325<br \/>\n00:19:40,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:42,000<br \/>\nhad been the one who just killed<br \/>\n150 people. <\/p>\n<p>326<br \/>\n00:19:43,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:47,900<br \/>\nSo just consider that.<br \/>\nNow again, God can work with our<\/p>\n<p>327<br \/>\n00:19:47,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:51,300<br \/>\nactions and he does, and he<br \/>\nteaches us, but I just think <\/p>\n<p>328<br \/>\n00:19:51,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:54,900<br \/>\nit&#8217;s interesting to see how<br \/>\nsometimes we see our own <\/p>\n<p>329<br \/>\n00:19:54,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:19:58,900<br \/>\nactions, the light in which we<br \/>\npresent what we are doing. <\/p>\n<p>330<br \/>\n00:20:00,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:02,700<br \/>\nSo the only thing that Elijah<br \/>\nseems to be able to make sense <\/p>\n<p>331<br \/>\n00:20:02,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:06,000<br \/>\nof as Moses.<br \/>\nRighteousness is Moses and I <\/p>\n<p>332<br \/>\n00:20:06,008 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:10,700<br \/>\nthink it gets a little bit of a<br \/>\nhint like that as the angel <\/p>\n<p>333<br \/>\n00:20:10,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:14,600<br \/>\nspeaks to him.<br \/>\nThe angel tells him to eat, <\/p>\n<p>334<br \/>\n00:20:14,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:18,000<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nAnd not only that he&#8217;s there in <\/p>\n<p>335<br \/>\n00:20:18,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:21,900<br \/>\nthe wilderness.<br \/>\nAnd we touched on how perhaps <\/p>\n<p>336<br \/>\n00:20:21,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:23,700<br \/>\nhe&#8217;d been thinking about Moses<br \/>\nearlier. <\/p>\n<p>337<br \/>\n00:20:25,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:28,600<br \/>\nThen he offers his life to God<br \/>\nbecause of the people which is <\/p>\n<p>338<br \/>\n00:20:28,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:30,700<br \/>\nsomething that Moses had done.<br \/>\nYou remember that, with the <\/p>\n<p>339<br \/>\n00:20:30,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:36,100<br \/>\nstory of the golden calf and he<br \/>\nsays if you will not Forgive <\/p>\n<p>340<br \/>\n00:20:36,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:39,700<br \/>\nthem blot out my life from The<br \/>\nBook of Life. <\/p>\n<p>341<br \/>\n00:20:40,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:43,900<br \/>\nHe offers his own life as well.<br \/>\nSo there&#8217;s a little bit of a <\/p>\n<p>342<br \/>\n00:20:43,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:45,800<br \/>\nsense there of what Elijah is<br \/>\ndoing. <\/p>\n<p>343<br \/>\n00:20:46,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:50,300<br \/>\nAnd I think he gets this sort of<br \/>\nconfirmed by what the angel is <\/p>\n<p>344<br \/>\n00:20:50,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:54,500<br \/>\ndoing.<br \/>\nHowever, He&#8217;s not really acting <\/p>\n<p>345<br \/>\n00:20:54,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:20:55,500<br \/>\nlike Moses because you know<br \/>\nwhat? <\/p>\n<p>346<br \/>\n00:20:55,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:00,800<br \/>\nWeird shows up again, when the<br \/>\nangel brings him food, he gets a<\/p>\n<p>347<br \/>\n00:21:00,808 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:04,500<br \/>\ncake.<br \/>\nOn Lou gaw. <\/p>\n<p>348<br \/>\n00:21:05,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:09,400<br \/>\nSo, he gets that cake, which<br \/>\nagain, is a reference right back<\/p>\n<p>349<br \/>\n00:21:09,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:12,700<br \/>\nto the Mana.<br \/>\nRight back to the Manna in the <\/p>\n<p>350<br \/>\n00:21:12,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:17,100<br \/>\nwilderness and he gets a<br \/>\nmiraculous provision of water. <\/p>\n<p>351<br \/>\n00:21:18,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:20,300<br \/>\nSo you can see again, how he&#8217;s<br \/>\nbeing shown. <\/p>\n<p>352<br \/>\n00:21:20,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:24,100<br \/>\nLook, this isn&#8217;t Moses.<br \/>\nThis is the Israelites you got <\/p>\n<p>353<br \/>\n00:21:24,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:26,300<br \/>\nto remember, you know, when the<br \/>\nIsraelites were discouraged when<\/p>\n<p>354<br \/>\n00:21:26,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:29,900<br \/>\nthey thought they were going to<br \/>\ndie, I took care of them, right?<\/p>\n<p>355<br \/>\n00:21:29,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:32,500<br \/>\nI had a plan.<br \/>\nI was bringing them through. <\/p>\n<p>356<br \/>\n00:21:32,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:35,700<br \/>\nThis is what God is showing him<br \/>\nthrough this provision here and <\/p>\n<p>357<br \/>\n00:21:35,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:39,100<br \/>\nI think, perhaps Elijah takes it<br \/>\nand he says, wait a minute Mana.<\/p>\n<p>358<br \/>\n00:21:40,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:43,800<br \/>\nWater.<br \/>\nWell, that&#8217;s what happened under<\/p>\n<p>359<br \/>\n00:21:43,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:46,600<br \/>\nMoses.<br \/>\nSo, you know he he kind of puts <\/p>\n<p>360<br \/>\n00:21:46,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:48,200<br \/>\nthese hints out, he runs to the<br \/>\nWilderness. <\/p>\n<p>361<br \/>\n00:21:48,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:51,700<br \/>\nHe offers his life and he says,<br \/>\nyou know, I&#8217;m thinking about <\/p>\n<p>362<br \/>\n00:21:51,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:21:55,400<br \/>\nMoses and then he sees the cake<br \/>\nand the water and he thinks aha.<\/p>\n<p>363<br \/>\n00:21:57,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:00,200<br \/>\nGod understands.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m supposed to be like, Moses. <\/p>\n<p>364<br \/>\n00:22:00,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:05,700<br \/>\nAnd so bent on this idea because<br \/>\nthe angel says arise and eat for<\/p>\n<p>365<br \/>\n00:22:05,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:07,300<br \/>\nthe journey is too great for<br \/>\nyou. <\/p>\n<p>366<br \/>\n00:22:07,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:11,100<br \/>\nElijah says God knows where I&#8217;m<br \/>\ngoing. <\/p>\n<p>367<br \/>\n00:22:12,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:17,100<br \/>\nBecause he&#8217;s headed to Mount<br \/>\nSinai to be like Moses and what <\/p>\n<p>368<br \/>\n00:22:17,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:24,000<br \/>\nElijah is going to do is he&#8217;s<br \/>\ngoing to attempt to recreate the<\/p>\n<p>369<br \/>\n00:22:24,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:32,300<br \/>\ngiving of the law at Sinai.<br \/>\nNow remember, God has slowly <\/p>\n<p>370<br \/>\n00:22:32,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:35,600<br \/>\nbeen teaching Elijah.<br \/>\nThat it&#8217;s not about law. <\/p>\n<p>371<br \/>\n00:22:36,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:40,100<br \/>\nBut these kind of things are<br \/>\nhard, right? <\/p>\n<p>372<br \/>\n00:22:40,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:43,400<br \/>\nLike, you know, I&#8217;ve known that<br \/>\nthat it&#8217;s not about law. <\/p>\n<p>373<br \/>\n00:22:43,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:45,500<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve known it since I was like<br \/>\n10, right? <\/p>\n<p>374<br \/>\n00:22:45,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:48,300<br \/>\nWe talk about it all the time<br \/>\nthis christadelphians and yet <\/p>\n<p>375<br \/>\n00:22:48,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:52,800<br \/>\nhere I am. 25 years later, still<br \/>\ntalking about it because I still<\/p>\n<p>376<br \/>\n00:22:52,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:55,200<br \/>\nstruggle with it, right?<br \/>\nWe still want to create these <\/p>\n<p>377<br \/>\n00:22:55,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:22:58,500<br \/>\nrules and we still want to live<br \/>\nby them and still think this is <\/p>\n<p>378<br \/>\n00:22:58,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:05,200<br \/>\nhow we can bring God glory.<br \/>\nThis is how we can make God <\/p>\n<p>379<br \/>\n00:23:05,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:07,400<br \/>\nhappy as by creating these laws.<br \/>\nFollowing them. <\/p>\n<p>380<br \/>\n00:23:07,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:12,100<br \/>\nSo I think Elijah, even though<br \/>\nGod taught him. <\/p>\n<p>381<br \/>\n00:23:14,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:18,700<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s not about the law, it&#8217;s eat<br \/>\nfrom the unclean, birds eat the <\/p>\n<p>382<br \/>\n00:23:18,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:20,600<br \/>\nthing, the stuff that&#8217;s dead<br \/>\nthat they bring to you. <\/p>\n<p>383<br \/>\n00:23:20,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:23,000<br \/>\nLay on that boy to resurrect<br \/>\nhim. <\/p>\n<p>384<br \/>\n00:23:24,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:27,700<br \/>\nEven though he starts to learn<br \/>\nit, it&#8217;s always a process. <\/p>\n<p>385<br \/>\n00:23:28,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:31,700<br \/>\nAnd so, here he is the world<br \/>\nfalling apart around him. <\/p>\n<p>386<br \/>\n00:23:32,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:34,600<br \/>\nHe goes to the one thing that<br \/>\nseems sure. <\/p>\n<p>387<br \/>\n00:23:35,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:41,300<br \/>\nAnd that is law.<br \/>\nHe feels like God affirms it <\/p>\n<p>388<br \/>\n00:23:41,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:45,600<br \/>\nwith this.<br \/>\nSo he runs to Mount Sinai and he<\/p>\n<p>389<br \/>\n00:23:45,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:48,600<br \/>\nis going to recreate Mount<br \/>\nSinai. <\/p>\n<p>390<br \/>\n00:23:48,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:52,400<br \/>\nTo see the glory of God, like<br \/>\nMoses saw, the glory of God to <\/p>\n<p>391<br \/>\n00:23:52,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:55,600<br \/>\nremind himself.<br \/>\nWhy this all matters to remind <\/p>\n<p>392<br \/>\n00:23:55,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:23:58,300<br \/>\nhimself what he&#8217;s doing?<br \/>\nI mean, you can totally see, <\/p>\n<p>393<br \/>\n00:23:58,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:02,300<br \/>\nthis is extremely biblical<br \/>\nthinking like what Elijah Elijah<\/p>\n<p>394<br \/>\n00:24:02,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:04,600<br \/>\nis going to start quoting<br \/>\npassages to God. <\/p>\n<p>395<br \/>\n00:24:04,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:07,500<br \/>\nWhen God says, why are you here?<br \/>\nAnd Elijah is going to be all <\/p>\n<p>396<br \/>\n00:24:07,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:11,000<br \/>\nover the Torah.<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s going to quote it a bunch <\/p>\n<p>397<br \/>\n00:24:11,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:13,900<br \/>\nof times to God, you know, kind<br \/>\nof like God forgot or something.<\/p>\n<p>398<br \/>\n00:24:13,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:15,500<br \/>\nYou know.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s like it&#8217;s like Elijah&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>399<br \/>\n00:24:15,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:19,600<br \/>\ntrying to remind him that this<br \/>\nis his biblical thinking, right?<\/p>\n<p>400<br \/>\n00:24:21,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:23,000<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t think we can condemn him<br \/>\nfor it. <\/p>\n<p>401<br \/>\n00:24:24,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:27,400<br \/>\nI think instead we should<br \/>\nemphasize with him for it <\/p>\n<p>402<br \/>\n00:24:27,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:33,400<br \/>\nbecause we do this all the time<br \/>\nand amazingly our wonderful God <\/p>\n<p>403<br \/>\n00:24:33,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:40,700<br \/>\nputs up with it, right?<br \/>\nAnd he says, I see your zeal. <\/p>\n<p>404<br \/>\n00:24:42,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:46,000<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s just Channel it this way.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s what&#8217;s going to happen <\/p>\n<p>405<br \/>\n00:24:46,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:51,500<br \/>\nwith Elijah.<br \/>\nSo, He runs down to Sinai. <\/p>\n<p>406<br \/>\n00:24:52,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:24:56,800<br \/>\nHe fasts then for 40 days and 40<br \/>\nnights, remind you of anyone. <\/p>\n<p>407<br \/>\n00:24:57,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:00,800<br \/>\nHe faster, 40 days, 40 nights<br \/>\nonly other person to have done <\/p>\n<p>408<br \/>\n00:25:00,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:05,200<br \/>\nthat at this point.<br \/>\nWhich is exactly what Moses did <\/p>\n<p>409<br \/>\n00:25:05,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:09,600<br \/>\nin Exodus 34 28.<br \/>\nHe goes to Sinai, which is where<\/p>\n<p>410<br \/>\n00:25:09,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:12,000<br \/>\nMoses met with God, Exodus 34<br \/>\nverse 4. <\/p>\n<p>411<br \/>\n00:25:12,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:15,800<br \/>\nHe is going to recreate the<br \/>\ngiving of the law at Sinai. <\/p>\n<p>412<br \/>\n00:25:17,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:21,500<br \/>\nNow what happens is he gets<br \/>\nthere and just in case you&#8217;re a <\/p>\n<p>413<br \/>\n00:25:21,508 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:25,400<br \/>\nlittle skeptical of this idea of<br \/>\nthis recreating the law he gets <\/p>\n<p>414<br \/>\n00:25:25,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:29,100<br \/>\nthere and in fact he goes into a<br \/>\ncave a cave. <\/p>\n<p>415<br \/>\n00:25:30,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:34,600<br \/>\nHmm.<br \/>\nNow, what what had happened with<\/p>\n<p>416<br \/>\n00:25:34,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:42,200<br \/>\na cave prior to this at Sinai<br \/>\nnow I&#8217;ll put, I&#8217;ll be totally <\/p>\n<p>417<br \/>\n00:25:42,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:44,700<br \/>\nhonest here.<br \/>\nThe record does not say a cave <\/p>\n<p>418<br \/>\n00:25:44,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:48,000<br \/>\nand exodus.<br \/>\nIt says a cleft of the Rock, <\/p>\n<p>419<br \/>\n00:25:48,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:50,700<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nSo it&#8217;s this outcropping, <\/p>\n<p>420<br \/>\n00:25:51,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:54,100<br \/>\nsomething like that.<br \/>\nHowever, I think scripture is <\/p>\n<p>421<br \/>\n00:25:54,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:25:56,900<br \/>\ntelling us that it&#8217;s the same<br \/>\nplace because if you look in the<\/p>\n<p>422<br \/>\n00:25:56,908 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:02,300<br \/>\nHebrew, This is your word and<br \/>\nsome of you may recognize that <\/p>\n<p>423<br \/>\n00:26:02,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:06,000<br \/>\nletter that is a.<br \/>\nHey, and when it&#8217;s put on the <\/p>\n<p>424<br \/>\n00:26:06,008 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:11,300<br \/>\nfront of a word, it means the it<br \/>\nis the definite article. <\/p>\n<p>425<br \/>\n00:26:11,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:14,800<br \/>\nSo, in other words, First Kings<br \/>\n19, 9, you might want to just <\/p>\n<p>426<br \/>\n00:26:14,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:17,700<br \/>\nunderline this here and add that<br \/>\nin in your Bible. <\/p>\n<p>427<br \/>\n00:26:18,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:23,500<br \/>\nIt actually says there, he came<br \/>\nto the cave and lodged in it. <\/p>\n<p>428<br \/>\n00:26:23,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:26,600<br \/>\nNow, I think the reason that<br \/>\nmost translators didn&#8217;t put that<\/p>\n<p>429<br \/>\n00:26:26,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:28,900<br \/>\nin is just because they were<br \/>\nlike Like what? <\/p>\n<p>430<br \/>\n00:26:29,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:32,800<br \/>\nThat doesn&#8217;t make any sense, the<br \/>\ncave, he was never at Mount <\/p>\n<p>431<br \/>\n00:26:32,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:35,700<br \/>\nSinai before, like why would it<br \/>\nbe referencing a specific cave? <\/p>\n<p>432<br \/>\n00:26:36,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:39,700<br \/>\nBut when you look at this in<br \/>\nlight of Moses, I think what you<\/p>\n<p>433<br \/>\n00:26:39,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:44,100<br \/>\nsee is scripture is telling us<br \/>\nhe went up, he&#8217;s climbing up the<\/p>\n<p>434<br \/>\n00:26:44,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:45,400<br \/>\nmountain and he says, where is<br \/>\nit? <\/p>\n<p>435<br \/>\n00:26:45,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:49,300<br \/>\nWhere is it?<br \/>\nI have to find it and he finds <\/p>\n<p>436<br \/>\n00:26:49,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:53,700<br \/>\nthe cave.<br \/>\nThe one that Moses was in, when <\/p>\n<p>437<br \/>\n00:26:53,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:26:59,500<br \/>\nGod&#8217;s glory passes by when God<br \/>\nproclaims, Yahweh, Yahweh, <\/p>\n<p>438<br \/>\n00:26:59,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:02,400<br \/>\nmerciful, gracious,<br \/>\nlong-suffering abundant in <\/p>\n<p>439<br \/>\n00:27:02,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:05,600<br \/>\ngoodness and truth, right?<br \/>\nSo, here is Elijah attempting to<\/p>\n<p>440<br \/>\n00:27:05,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:08,900<br \/>\nrecreate the whole experience.<br \/>\nAnd he goes, and he stands in <\/p>\n<p>441<br \/>\n00:27:08,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:11,500<br \/>\nthe cave and he waits, I&#8217;m<br \/>\nready. <\/p>\n<p>442<br \/>\n00:27:11,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:13,700<br \/>\nRight here.<br \/>\nIt is. <\/p>\n<p>443<br \/>\n00:27:14,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:15,500<br \/>\nYou told me I should come down<br \/>\nhere, right? <\/p>\n<p>444<br \/>\n00:27:15,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:17,700<br \/>\nThis is what he&#8217;s thinking, I&#8217;m<br \/>\nready? <\/p>\n<p>445<br \/>\n00:27:19,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:24,400<br \/>\nSo then he stands in the cave<br \/>\nand God comes and says Elijah. <\/p>\n<p>446<br \/>\n00:27:25,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:29,800<br \/>\nWhy are you here?<br \/>\nNow, if that&#8217;s not deflating <\/p>\n<p>447<br \/>\n00:27:30,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:33,700<br \/>\nright, I don&#8217;t know what is<br \/>\nbecause it&#8217;s kind of like, well,<\/p>\n<p>448<br \/>\n00:27:33,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:35,300<br \/>\nisn&#8217;t it obvious?<br \/>\nYou know, I&#8217;m standing in the <\/p>\n<p>449<br \/>\n00:27:35,308 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:37,300<br \/>\ncave.<br \/>\nI thought you told me to go here<\/p>\n<p>450<br \/>\n00:27:37,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:40,200<br \/>\nand he&#8217;s there waiting.<br \/>\nSo he says, okay, how about <\/p>\n<p>451<br \/>\n00:27:40,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:43,700<br \/>\nthis?<br \/>\nI have been very jealous for <\/p>\n<p>452<br \/>\n00:27:43,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:46,200<br \/>\nYahweh.<br \/>\nThe god of hosts for the people <\/p>\n<p>453<br \/>\n00:27:46,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:49,400<br \/>\nof Israel have forsaken, your<br \/>\nCovenant thrown down your altars<\/p>\n<p>454<br \/>\n00:27:49,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:50,800<br \/>\nkilled your prophets with the<br \/>\nsword. <\/p>\n<p>455<br \/>\n00:27:50,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:54,000<br \/>\nAnd I even, I only am left and<br \/>\nthey seek my life to take it <\/p>\n<p>456<br \/>\n00:27:54,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:27:55,700<br \/>\naway.<br \/>\nNow, this is a fascinating <\/p>\n<p>457<br \/>\n00:27:55,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:01,000<br \/>\nconglomeration.<br \/>\nA versus he quotes himself right<\/p>\n<p>458<br \/>\n00:28:01,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:03,800<br \/>\nhere from the last chapter,<br \/>\nright? <\/p>\n<p>459<br \/>\n00:28:04,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:08,400<br \/>\nI even, I only am left.<br \/>\nSo, he quotes himself in <\/p>\n<p>460<br \/>\n00:28:08,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:11,800<br \/>\naddition to that, this here,<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve been very jealous. <\/p>\n<p>461<br \/>\n00:28:11,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:14,300<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve forsaken, or they have<br \/>\nforsaken, your Covenant. <\/p>\n<p>462<br \/>\n00:28:14,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:16,400<br \/>\nThis is a quotation of<br \/>\nDeuteronomy chapter 4. <\/p>\n<p>463<br \/>\n00:28:17,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:19,000<br \/>\nLet&#8217;s just go back to<br \/>\nDeuteronomy 4. <\/p>\n<p>464<br \/>\n00:28:20,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:25,800<br \/>\nDeuteronomy 4.<br \/>\nVerses 23 to 24. <\/p>\n<p>465<br \/>\n00:28:26,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:32,000<br \/>\nSee if you hear the echo.<br \/>\nDeuteronomy 4, 23 to 24 says <\/p>\n<p>466<br \/>\n00:28:32,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:38,200<br \/>\nthis is by the way Moses&#8217;s<br \/>\nrehashing of what happened at <\/p>\n<p>467<br \/>\n00:28:38,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:40,900<br \/>\nMount Sinai.<br \/>\nSo Moses is telling the story <\/p>\n<p>468<br \/>\n00:28:40,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:44,800<br \/>\nagain to the Next Generation.<br \/>\nSo Deuteronomy 4 verse 23. <\/p>\n<p>469<br \/>\n00:28:44,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:49,200<br \/>\nMoses says take care.<br \/>\nLest you forget the Covenant of <\/p>\n<p>470<br \/>\n00:28:49,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:53,300<br \/>\nthe Lord your God?<br \/>\nWhich he made with you and make <\/p>\n<p>471<br \/>\n00:28:53,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:28:57,000<br \/>\na carved image, the form of<br \/>\nanything that the Lord, your God<\/p>\n<p>472<br \/>\n00:28:57,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:00,400<br \/>\nhas forbidden you for the Lord.<br \/>\nYour God is a consuming fire, a <\/p>\n<p>473<br \/>\n00:29:00,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:04,200<br \/>\njealous God.<br \/>\nAnd so here&#8217;s Elijah taking that<\/p>\n<p>474<br \/>\n00:29:04,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:06,600<br \/>\ndescription of God and saying,<br \/>\nlook, you&#8217;re a jealous. <\/p>\n<p>475<br \/>\n00:29:06,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:10,800<br \/>\nGod, I&#8217;m jealous for you.<br \/>\nYou said don&#8217;t forget the <\/p>\n<p>476<br \/>\n00:29:10,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:12,100<br \/>\nCovenant.<br \/>\nWell, that&#8217;s what everybody has <\/p>\n<p>477<br \/>\n00:29:12,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:15,600<br \/>\ndone.<br \/>\nSo, he quotes Deuteronomy, and <\/p>\n<p>478<br \/>\n00:29:15,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:19,400<br \/>\nthe reason that this is so<br \/>\npowerful, I think for us is <\/p>\n<p>479<br \/>\n00:29:19,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:24,100<br \/>\nconsider the way.<br \/>\nThat Deuteronomy describes the <\/p>\n<p>480<br \/>\n00:29:24,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:28,500<br \/>\nCovenant at Sinai.<br \/>\nYou came near and stood at the <\/p>\n<p>481<br \/>\n00:29:28,508 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:30,900<br \/>\nfoot of the mountain, while the<br \/>\nmountain burned with fire. <\/p>\n<p>482<br \/>\n00:29:31,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:34,500<br \/>\nThen the Lord spoke to you out<br \/>\nof the midst of the fire. <\/p>\n<p>483<br \/>\n00:29:36,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:38,600<br \/>\nThe Lord spoke to you at Horeb<br \/>\nout of the midst of the fire <\/p>\n<p>484<br \/>\n00:29:39,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:42,300<br \/>\nverse 33.<br \/>\nDid any people ever hear the <\/p>\n<p>485<br \/>\n00:29:42,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:44,000<br \/>\nvoice of a God?<br \/>\nSpeaking out of the midst of the<\/p>\n<p>486<br \/>\n00:29:44,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:47,800<br \/>\nfire Deuteronomy 436 and on<br \/>\nEarth you let you see his great <\/p>\n<p>487<br \/>\n00:29:47,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:50,700<br \/>\nfire and you heard his words out<br \/>\nof the midst of the fire, right?<\/p>\n<p>488<br \/>\n00:29:50,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:53,400<br \/>\nWe can&#8217;t blame Elijah for being<br \/>\na man of fire. <\/p>\n<p>489<br \/>\n00:29:53,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:29:56,900<br \/>\nThis is where his mind was and<br \/>\nit was totally biblical. <\/p>\n<p>490<br \/>\n00:29:58,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:00,100<br \/>\nAgain chapter 5 says the same<br \/>\nthing. <\/p>\n<p>491<br \/>\n00:30:00,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:02,500<br \/>\nThe Lord spoke with you<br \/>\nface-to-face at the mountain out<\/p>\n<p>492<br \/>\n00:30:02,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:04,500<br \/>\nof the midst of the fire.<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t know why I didn&#8217;t <\/p>\n<p>493<br \/>\n00:30:04,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:07,500<br \/>\nunderline that one that should<br \/>\nbe these words. <\/p>\n<p>494<br \/>\n00:30:07,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:09,100<br \/>\nSpoke the Lord to all your<br \/>\nassembly at the mountain out of <\/p>\n<p>495<br \/>\n00:30:09,108 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:11,000<br \/>\nthem.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s the fire burning with fire <\/p>\n<p>496<br \/>\n00:30:11,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:14,000<br \/>\nout of the midst of the fire.<br \/>\nIt is everywhere in this <\/p>\n<p>497<br \/>\n00:30:14,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:17,900<br \/>\ndescription of Sinai.<br \/>\nNow in addition to that, Hebrews<\/p>\n<p>498<br \/>\n00:30:17,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:20,300<br \/>\ntells us there were a few other<br \/>\nthings so we got fire. <\/p>\n<p>499<br \/>\n00:30:20,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:24,900<br \/>\nAlright, keep that in mind.<br \/>\nHebrews chapter 12 says you have<\/p>\n<p>500<br \/>\n00:30:24,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:28,700<br \/>\nnot come to what may be touched.<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s contrasting here, the <\/p>\n<p>501<br \/>\n00:30:28,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:32,500<br \/>\nCovenant at Sinai with the New<br \/>\nCovenant you have not come to <\/p>\n<p>502<br \/>\n00:30:32,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:37,600<br \/>\nwhat may be touched a blazing<br \/>\nfire and darkness and Gloom and <\/p>\n<p>503<br \/>\n00:30:37,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:42,600<br \/>\na tempest.<br \/>\nIn other words, read wind. <\/p>\n<p>504<br \/>\n00:30:44,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:48,500<br \/>\nAt that time, his voice shook<br \/>\nthe Earth. <\/p>\n<p>505<br \/>\n00:30:49,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:30:57,900<br \/>\nIn other words, earthquake.<br \/>\nAt Mount Sinai when Moses gave <\/p>\n<p>506<br \/>\n00:30:57,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:00,900<br \/>\nthe law.<br \/>\nThere was an earthquake. <\/p>\n<p>507<br \/>\n00:31:02,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:05,000<br \/>\nThere was wind.<br \/>\nAnd there was fire. <\/p>\n<p>508<br \/>\n00:31:06,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:11,900<br \/>\nWhat do you think Elijah<br \/>\nexpected when he stood in the <\/p>\n<p>509<br \/>\n00:31:11,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:14,900<br \/>\ncave?<br \/>\nOn Mount Sinai. <\/p>\n<p>510<br \/>\n00:31:16,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:20,900<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s waiting for the earthquake.<br \/>\nSO waiting for the wind, he&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>511<br \/>\n00:31:20,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:23,800<br \/>\nwaiting for the fire.<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s looking for a renewal here <\/p>\n<p>512<br \/>\n00:31:23,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:26,100<br \/>\nof the Covenant and look at what<br \/>\nhappens. <\/p>\n<p>513<br \/>\n00:31:27,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:31,400<br \/>\nGod says, leave the cave.<br \/>\nGo out and stand on the mountain<\/p>\n<p>514<br \/>\n00:31:31,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:34,900<br \/>\nbefore the Lord.<br \/>\nNow, If you are Elijah and <\/p>\n<p>515<br \/>\n00:31:34,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:38,800<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re recreating Mount Sinai.<br \/>\nHow would you feel when you&#8217;re <\/p>\n<p>516<br \/>\n00:31:38,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:41,300<br \/>\ntold this?<br \/>\nGo out and stand on the <\/p>\n<p>517<br \/>\n00:31:41,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:46,900<br \/>\nmountain.<br \/>\nKeep in mind Moses was in the <\/p>\n<p>518<br \/>\n00:31:46,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:50,600<br \/>\ncave the whole time, right?<br \/>\nBecause if he saw the glory of <\/p>\n<p>519<br \/>\n00:31:50,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:52,800<br \/>\nGod, what would happen?<br \/>\nHe would die. <\/p>\n<p>520<br \/>\n00:31:53,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:55,600<br \/>\nGod says no man can see me and<br \/>\nlive so I will put you in the <\/p>\n<p>521<br \/>\n00:31:55,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:31:57,800<br \/>\ncave.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll cover you with my hand. <\/p>\n<p>522<br \/>\n00:31:59,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:02,300<br \/>\nAnd God says, Elijah get out of<br \/>\nthe cave. <\/p>\n<p>523<br \/>\n00:32:04,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:05,100<br \/>\nYou know what&#8217;s interesting<br \/>\nabout that? <\/p>\n<p>524<br \/>\n00:32:06,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:12,400<br \/>\nHe doesn&#8217;t. because in the next<br \/>\nverse were told, then he left <\/p>\n<p>525<br \/>\n00:32:12,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:18,800<br \/>\nthe cave, Elijah refuses to<br \/>\nleave This is where he&#8217;s at <\/p>\n<p>526<br \/>\n00:32:18,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:20,600<br \/>\nmentally and emotionally at this<br \/>\npoint. <\/p>\n<p>527<br \/>\n00:32:20,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:23,000<br \/>\nHe says, I will not let go,<br \/>\nright? <\/p>\n<p>528<br \/>\n00:32:23,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:28,400<br \/>\nThis is, this is who you are.<br \/>\nYou are the earthquake, the <\/p>\n<p>529<br \/>\n00:32:28,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:31,200<br \/>\nwind, the fire.<br \/>\nI am the prophet of fire. <\/p>\n<p>530<br \/>\n00:32:31,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:33,200<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve been bringing your fire on<br \/>\nthe people. <\/p>\n<p>531<br \/>\n00:32:33,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:37,100<br \/>\nShow me who you are, right,<br \/>\nreaffirm this for all of me. <\/p>\n<p>532<br \/>\n00:32:37,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:41,300<br \/>\nSo Elijah does not leave.<br \/>\nAnd so, God passes by. <\/p>\n<p>533<br \/>\n00:32:43,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:45,500<br \/>\nAnd you can picture him standing<br \/>\nthere watching the wind and <\/p>\n<p>534<br \/>\n00:32:45,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:48,300<br \/>\nElijah thinking.<br \/>\nHere it is right? <\/p>\n<p>535<br \/>\n00:32:48,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:51,700<br \/>\nThis is it.<br \/>\nThe glory of God. <\/p>\n<p>536<br \/>\n00:32:53,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:32:57,000<br \/>\nAnd then the wind stops.<br \/>\nAnd there&#8217;s nothing. <\/p>\n<p>537<br \/>\n00:32:58,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:00,400<br \/>\nAnd then the ground starts to<br \/>\nshake and Elijah thinks. <\/p>\n<p>538<br \/>\n00:33:00,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:01,600<br \/>\nThis is it.<br \/>\nThis is the one. <\/p>\n<p>539<br \/>\n00:33:03,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:06,900<br \/>\nAnd nothing and then finally<br \/>\nfire. <\/p>\n<p>540<br \/>\n00:33:07,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:10,200<br \/>\nAnd can you picture his mind?<br \/>\nGoing through Deuteronomy out of<\/p>\n<p>541<br \/>\n00:33:10,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:12,300<br \/>\nthe midst of the fire out of the<br \/>\nmidst of the fire and thinking? <\/p>\n<p>542<br \/>\n00:33:12,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:14,800<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s right.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s that&#8217;s why God save this <\/p>\n<p>543<br \/>\n00:33:14,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:17,400<br \/>\none for last.<br \/>\nThis is where his glory will be <\/p>\n<p>544<br \/>\n00:33:17,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:21,300<br \/>\nrevealed because the fire was<br \/>\nall over the mount. <\/p>\n<p>545<br \/>\n00:33:22,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:26,500<br \/>\nGod spoke out of the midst of<br \/>\nthe fire and here&#8217;s Elijah <\/p>\n<p>546<br \/>\n00:33:26,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:30,600<br \/>\nthinking finally I&#8217;ve waited to<br \/>\nsee the glory of God. <\/p>\n<p>547<br \/>\n00:33:32,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:37,800<br \/>\nAnd the fire dies down.<br \/>\nAnd Elijah is standing there in <\/p>\n<p>548<br \/>\n00:33:37,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:41,200<br \/>\nthe cave.<br \/>\nAnd you know what happens? <\/p>\n<p>549<br \/>\n00:33:42,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:47,500<br \/>\nHe hears.<br \/>\nA gentle whisper. <\/p>\n<p>550<br \/>\n00:33:49,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:50,800<br \/>\nAnd, you know, it&#8217;s unfortunate<br \/>\nabout that. <\/p>\n<p>551<br \/>\n00:33:51,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:33:58,200<br \/>\nWe&#8217;re not told what he heard the<br \/>\nwhisper say. and I think, That&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>552<br \/>\n00:33:58,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:02,200<br \/>\nbecause he would have actually<br \/>\nheard the words. if he had gone <\/p>\n<p>553<br \/>\n00:34:03,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:07,500<br \/>\nout of the cave, But he doesn&#8217;t<br \/>\nand he didn&#8217;t. <\/p>\n<p>554<br \/>\n00:34:09,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:14,100<br \/>\nSo instead he hears something<br \/>\nand that&#8217;s when he comes out. <\/p>\n<p>555<br \/>\n00:34:14,199 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:17,300<br \/>\nLook at the next verse after the<br \/>\nearthquake of fire, the Lord was<\/p>\n<p>556<br \/>\n00:34:17,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:20,300<br \/>\nnot in the fire after the fire,<br \/>\nthe sound of a low whisper. <\/p>\n<p>557<br \/>\n00:34:21,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:26,100<br \/>\nVerse 13 and when Elijah heard<br \/>\nit, he hears something and he <\/p>\n<p>558<br \/>\n00:34:26,107 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:30,100<br \/>\ngoes scrambling out of the cave.<br \/>\nHe wraps his face in his cloak <\/p>\n<p>559<br \/>\n00:34:30,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:32,100<br \/>\nand went out and stood at the<br \/>\nentrance of the cave. <\/p>\n<p>560<br \/>\n00:34:33,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:35,800<br \/>\nSo he runs out and he thinks<br \/>\nthis is where God is. <\/p>\n<p>561<br \/>\n00:34:38,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:41,500<br \/>\nThe Whispers gone, though.<br \/>\nAnd you know what he hears. <\/p>\n<p>562<br \/>\n00:34:43,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:49,400<br \/>\nElijah, why are you here?<br \/>\nand that&#8217;s because, In this <\/p>\n<p>563<br \/>\n00:34:49,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:53,600<br \/>\nopportunity that he had.<br \/>\nTo be completely, transformed <\/p>\n<p>564<br \/>\n00:34:54,199 &#8211;&gt; 00:34:57,500<br \/>\nrecognizing.<br \/>\nWhere is the glory of God? <\/p>\n<p>565<br \/>\n00:34:57,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:00,600<br \/>\nWhere is the presence of God?<br \/>\nWho is God? <\/p>\n<p>566<br \/>\n00:35:00,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:06,000<br \/>\nReally Elijah didn&#8217;t leave the<br \/>\ncave when he was told to Elijah <\/p>\n<p>567<br \/>\n00:35:06,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:09,200<br \/>\nclung to this Vision that he had<br \/>\nof Moses. <\/p>\n<p>568<br \/>\n00:35:10,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:12,700<br \/>\nI mean, look at this, he wraps<br \/>\nhis face in his cloak. <\/p>\n<p>569<br \/>\n00:35:12,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:14,800<br \/>\nDoes that remind you of anyone<br \/>\nelse, right? <\/p>\n<p>570<br \/>\n00:35:14,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:18,000<br \/>\nEven after seeing that God was<br \/>\nnot in the wind that God was not<\/p>\n<p>571<br \/>\n00:35:18,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:21,300<br \/>\nin the earthquake, God was not<br \/>\nin the fire, Elijah puts a veil <\/p>\n<p>572<br \/>\n00:35:21,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:27,200<br \/>\non His face when he leaves.<br \/>\nAnd here he is scrambling out of<\/p>\n<p>573<br \/>\n00:35:27,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:29,600<br \/>\nthe cave, and that&#8217;s what he&#8217;s<br \/>\nthinking about. <\/p>\n<p>574<br \/>\n00:35:29,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:32,800<br \/>\nFrank God is speaking to him in<br \/>\nthis low whisper and he&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>575<br \/>\n00:35:32,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:34,100<br \/>\nrunning out.<br \/>\nTrying to get to it. <\/p>\n<p>576<br \/>\n00:35:34,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:38,200<br \/>\nOh, got to be like Moses, right?<br \/>\nHe covers his face with the <\/p>\n<p>577<br \/>\n00:35:38,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:42,700<br \/>\nVeil.<br \/>\nOkay, here&#8217;s the here&#8217;s the <\/p>\n<p>578<br \/>\n00:35:42,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:46,400<br \/>\nreference by the way.<br \/>\nExodus 34 33 when Moses had <\/p>\n<p>579<br \/>\n00:35:46,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:48,600<br \/>\nfinished speaking with them.<br \/>\nHe put a veil over his face. <\/p>\n<p>580<br \/>\n00:35:49,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:53,400<br \/>\nSo even after seeing that, God<br \/>\nwas not in the earthquake Wind &amp;<\/p>\n<p>581<br \/>\n00:35:53,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:35:57,000<br \/>\nFire.<br \/>\nElijah still clinging to Moses. <\/p>\n<p>582<br \/>\n00:36:00,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:05,600<br \/>\nAnd yet.<br \/>\nHadn&#8217;t Elijah. <\/p>\n<p>583<br \/>\n00:36:07,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:13,200<br \/>\nAlways met with God.<br \/>\nAnd the word of Yahweh came to <\/p>\n<p>584<br \/>\n00:36:13,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:16,400<br \/>\nhim saying the word of Yahweh<br \/>\ncame to him saying, I mean, in <\/p>\n<p>585<br \/>\n00:36:16,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:20,300<br \/>\nthis chapter three times, he met<br \/>\nan Angel and the voice of God <\/p>\n<p>586<br \/>\n00:36:20,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:23,700<br \/>\nspoke to him twice, right?<br \/>\nHe had he had been meeting with <\/p>\n<p>587<br \/>\n00:36:23,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:28,700<br \/>\nGod.<br \/>\nAnd yet through this encounter, <\/p>\n<p>588<br \/>\n00:36:28,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:31,900<br \/>\nhis attitude didn&#8217;t change.<br \/>\nAnd I think this is the Crux of <\/p>\n<p>589<br \/>\n00:36:31,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:36,100<br \/>\nthe story.<br \/>\nBefore he sees the earthquake <\/p>\n<p>590<br \/>\n00:36:36,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:37,900<br \/>\nWind &amp; Fire.<br \/>\nHe says, I&#8217;ve been very jealous <\/p>\n<p>591<br \/>\n00:36:37,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:40,400<br \/>\nfor Yahweh.<br \/>\nThe god of hosts, he says the <\/p>\n<p>592<br \/>\n00:36:40,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:42,800<br \/>\nexact same thing after the<br \/>\nearthquake Wind and Fire. <\/p>\n<p>593<br \/>\n00:36:42,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:44,900<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve been very jealous for<br \/>\nYahweh, God of hosts. <\/p>\n<p>594<br \/>\n00:36:45,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:47,700<br \/>\nNow, let that sink in a little<br \/>\nbit and think about this. <\/p>\n<p>595<br \/>\n00:36:48,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:51,000<br \/>\nHow did Elijah want to transform<br \/>\nthe people? <\/p>\n<p>596<br \/>\n00:36:52,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:56,200<br \/>\nHe wanted to change the people<br \/>\nwith earthquake, Wind Fire. <\/p>\n<p>597<br \/>\n00:36:56,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:36:58,400<br \/>\nHe wanted to show them<br \/>\npyrotechnics, right? <\/p>\n<p>598<br \/>\n00:36:58,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:03,800<br \/>\nThat would change everything and<br \/>\nGod says, but Elijah, that <\/p>\n<p>599<br \/>\n00:37:03,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:05,400<br \/>\ndidn&#8217;t change.<br \/>\nIs you? <\/p>\n<p>600<br \/>\n00:37:08,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:12,100<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s what this is all about.<br \/>\nI think that is why God brought <\/p>\n<p>601<br \/>\n00:37:12,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:15,700<br \/>\nhim to Mount Sinai.<br \/>\nGod didn&#8217;t bring him to Mount <\/p>\n<p>602<br \/>\n00:37:15,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:19,000<br \/>\nSinai to recreate the law.<br \/>\nAlthough that&#8217;s what Elijah <\/p>\n<p>603<br \/>\n00:37:19,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:21,900<br \/>\nfirst.<br \/>\nThought he brought him to Sinai <\/p>\n<p>604<br \/>\n00:37:22,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:26,600<br \/>\nto show him Elijah.<br \/>\nThese things don&#8217;t work, you <\/p>\n<p>605<br \/>\n00:37:26,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:33,500<br \/>\nhave been unchanged by them.<br \/>\nWhy did he expect them to change<\/p>\n<p>606<br \/>\n00:37:33,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:38,000<br \/>\nthe people?<br \/>\nAnd so because he refuses to <\/p>\n<p>607<br \/>\n00:37:38,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:40,800<br \/>\nchange, this is what is amazing<br \/>\nabout this. <\/p>\n<p>608<br \/>\n00:37:42,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:47,300<br \/>\nEven though he won&#8217;t change.<br \/>\nGod. <\/p>\n<p>609<br \/>\n00:37:48,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:52,700<br \/>\nContinues to work with him.<br \/>\nBecause Elijah was holding to <\/p>\n<p>610<br \/>\n00:37:52,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:37:55,600<br \/>\nhim.<br \/>\nBecause Elijah was willing. <\/p>\n<p>611<br \/>\n00:37:57,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:00,000<br \/>\nHe was willing to hear it.<br \/>\nAnd even though change took a, <\/p>\n<p>612<br \/>\n00:38:00,008 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:04,000<br \/>\nwhile he would listen.<br \/>\nAnd so what God does, is God <\/p>\n<p>613<br \/>\n00:38:04,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:06,800<br \/>\ngets a little more drastic.<br \/>\nYou&#8217;ll notice, he says, okay, I <\/p>\n<p>614<br \/>\n00:38:06,808 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:10,500<br \/>\nhave a few things for you to do.<br \/>\nGo to Damascus annoyed, hazy out<\/p>\n<p>615<br \/>\n00:38:10,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:14,400<br \/>\nking of Syria, go to Israel and<br \/>\nanoint jehu, the king of Israel,<\/p>\n<p>616<br \/>\n00:38:14,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:18,900<br \/>\nand then go to Elijah and anoint<br \/>\nhim to be profit. <\/p>\n<p>617<br \/>\n00:38:19,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:23,600<br \/>\nNow, consider this in your<br \/>\nplace. <\/p>\n<p>618<br \/>\n00:38:24,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:27,500<br \/>\nThey give you a little bit of an<br \/>\nidea as to where God was that <\/p>\n<p>619<br \/>\n00:38:27,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:32,800<br \/>\nwith Elijah at the time. this<br \/>\nwasn&#8217;t a, we&#8217;re gonna have <\/p>\n<p>620<br \/>\n00:38:32,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:37,000<br \/>\nanother Prophet who&#8217;s going to<br \/>\nwork alongside you This was <\/p>\n<p>621<br \/>\n00:38:37,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:41,200<br \/>\nElijah.<br \/>\nI know your zealous. <\/p>\n<p>622<br \/>\n00:38:42,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:45,600<br \/>\nI know you want nothing more<br \/>\nthan to see me honored and so <\/p>\n<p>623<br \/>\n00:38:45,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:47,600<br \/>\nfor that, you&#8217;re done being a<br \/>\nprophet. <\/p>\n<p>624<br \/>\n00:38:48,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:54,300<br \/>\nBecause I can&#8217;t teach you how to<br \/>\nreally bring me Glory until <\/p>\n<p>625<br \/>\n00:38:54,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:38:58,000<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re not a prophet anymore.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s God, says. <\/p>\n<p>626<br \/>\n00:38:59,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:02,600<br \/>\nElijah is going to replace you.<br \/>\nAnd we&#8217;re going to do some <\/p>\n<p>627<br \/>\n00:39:02,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:05,800<br \/>\nintensive training.<br \/>\nBecause he had a job for him. <\/p>\n<p>628<br \/>\n00:39:06,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:11,400<br \/>\nGod had a job for Elijah in the<br \/>\nKingdom that he was going to be <\/p>\n<p>629<br \/>\n00:39:11,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:15,500<br \/>\nprepared for and because Elijah<br \/>\nwas so bent on serving God. <\/p>\n<p>630<br \/>\n00:39:15,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:18,500<br \/>\nGod says, I know you will stick<br \/>\nwith me through this. <\/p>\n<p>631<br \/>\n00:39:19,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:26,100<br \/>\nI know you will hold on.<br \/>\nSo, I&#8217;m going to take you. <\/p>\n<p>632<br \/>\n00:39:27,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:30,000<br \/>\nWhere it&#8217;s really hard.<br \/>\nBut we&#8217;re going to get through <\/p>\n<p>633<br \/>\n00:39:30,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:34,800<br \/>\nthis.<br \/>\nSo, Overtime. <\/p>\n<p>634<br \/>\n00:39:34,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:37,900<br \/>\nGod continues to work with<br \/>\nElijah, he shows up two more <\/p>\n<p>635<br \/>\n00:39:37,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:42,000<br \/>\ntimes after this first Kings,<br \/>\n20, he&#8217;s not there to other <\/p>\n<p>636<br \/>\n00:39:42,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:45,200<br \/>\nprophets now.<br \/>\nFirst Kings 21. <\/p>\n<p>637<br \/>\n00:39:45,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:47,700<br \/>\nHe shows up once to deliver a<br \/>\nfinal message to Ahab. <\/p>\n<p>638<br \/>\n00:39:50,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:54,700<br \/>\nHe doesn&#8217;t show up in First<br \/>\nKings, 22, first thing is 23 and<\/p>\n<p>639<br \/>\n00:39:54,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:39:58,100<br \/>\nhe doesn&#8217;t show up at all.<br \/>\nThe rest of the book instead. <\/p>\n<p>640<br \/>\n00:39:59,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:02,400<br \/>\nSecond Kings, chapter 1.<br \/>\nHe appears. <\/p>\n<p>641<br \/>\n00:40:04,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:08,700<br \/>\nHe appears when those captains<br \/>\nof 50 are sent to come and <\/p>\n<p>642<br \/>\n00:40:08,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:11,500<br \/>\ncapture him.<br \/>\nAnd that&#8217;s it. <\/p>\n<p>643<br \/>\n00:40:12,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:15,000<br \/>\nUntil he&#8217;s taken in a chariot of<br \/>\nfire. <\/p>\n<p>644<br \/>\n00:40:15,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:21,000<br \/>\nHe&#8217;s In the record.<br \/>\nAs long as he&#8217;s working with and<\/p>\n<p>645<br \/>\n00:40:21,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:23,800<br \/>\npreparing Elijah and Elisha is<br \/>\nready. <\/p>\n<p>646<br \/>\n00:40:24,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:31,400<br \/>\nEli just taken.<br \/>\nAnd yet, that&#8217;s because he still<\/p>\n<p>647<br \/>\n00:40:31,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:36,300<br \/>\nhad a lesson to learn.<br \/>\nNow, this is crucial Consider <\/p>\n<p>648<br \/>\n00:40:36,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:41,500<br \/>\nthe strange language here when<br \/>\nElijah has taken second Kings <\/p>\n<p>649<br \/>\n00:40:41,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:45,000<br \/>\nchapter to do you not know today<br \/>\nthat Yahweh will take away your <\/p>\n<p>650<br \/>\n00:40:45,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:50,300<br \/>\nmaster from Over You?<br \/>\nFrom over you, that&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>651<br \/>\n00:40:50,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:52,800<br \/>\ninteresting.<br \/>\nIt said again to Elijah take <\/p>\n<p>652<br \/>\n00:40:52,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:55,600<br \/>\naway your master from over you<br \/>\nand then Elijah says, before I&#8217;m<\/p>\n<p>653<br \/>\n00:40:55,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:40:59,400<br \/>\ntaken from you.<br \/>\nIn other words, implying he&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>654<br \/>\n00:40:59,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:03,800<br \/>\ngoing to be working.<br \/>\nSomewhere else doing something <\/p>\n<p>655<br \/>\n00:41:03,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:06,700<br \/>\nwith other people, he&#8217;s not<br \/>\ngoing to be with Elijah anymore,<\/p>\n<p>656<br \/>\n00:41:06,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:09,000<br \/>\nbecause Elijah is going to be<br \/>\nthe main profit. <\/p>\n<p>657<br \/>\n00:41:09,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:12,800<br \/>\nBut Elijah has another job and<br \/>\nwe find that out in Chronicles. <\/p>\n<p>658<br \/>\n00:41:13,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:17,600<br \/>\nBecause a letter comes from him.<br \/>\nThis is all we know of what <\/p>\n<p>659<br \/>\n00:41:17,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:21,000<br \/>\nhappens to Elijah but I think<br \/>\nthe picture is awesome because <\/p>\n<p>660<br \/>\n00:41:21,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:27,100<br \/>\nhere with the man a fire of<br \/>\nMiracles of Law and God says, <\/p>\n<p>661<br \/>\n00:41:27,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:31,500<br \/>\nI&#8217;m going to bring you to a<br \/>\nplace where the only thing you <\/p>\n<p>662<br \/>\n00:41:31,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:35,500<br \/>\ncan do.<br \/>\nIs use words. <\/p>\n<p>663<br \/>\n00:41:38,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:42,800<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s it.<br \/>\nYou from now on will write <\/p>\n<p>664<br \/>\n00:41:43,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:46,300<br \/>\nletters.<br \/>\nHow do you think Elijah enjoyed <\/p>\n<p>665<br \/>\n00:41:46,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:48,200<br \/>\nthat?<br \/>\nProbably not. <\/p>\n<p>666<br \/>\n00:41:49,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:52,400<br \/>\nThis was, you know, reliving the<br \/>\nbrook all over again. <\/p>\n<p>667<br \/>\n00:41:53,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:41:57,500<br \/>\nAnd yet, God does it.<br \/>\nBecause Elijah wasn&#8217;t going to <\/p>\n<p>668<br \/>\n00:41:57,508 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:04,200<br \/>\nlet him go and God wasn&#8217;t going<br \/>\nto let him go. and so, God says,<\/p>\n<p>669<br \/>\n00:42:05,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:08,800<br \/>\nI&#8217;m going to teach you this,<br \/>\neven if it takes. <\/p>\n<p>670<br \/>\n00:42:09,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:14,400<br \/>\nYour whole life.<br \/>\nAnd he does it. <\/p>\n<p>671<br \/>\n00:42:15,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:21,500<br \/>\nBecause all of this life is just<br \/>\na preparation for who we really <\/p>\n<p>672<br \/>\n00:42:21,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:25,300<br \/>\nare.<br \/>\nFor who God is going to have us <\/p>\n<p>673<br \/>\n00:42:25,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:28,500<br \/>\nbecome right?<br \/>\nAll of this time he is training <\/p>\n<p>674<br \/>\n00:42:28,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:32,900<br \/>\nus working with us for what he<br \/>\nis going to have us do forever, <\/p>\n<p>675<br \/>\n00:42:33,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:35,100<br \/>\nright?<br \/>\nSo 80 years of training, 90 <\/p>\n<p>676<br \/>\n00:42:35,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:38,800<br \/>\nyears of training, you know,<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s not bad. <\/p>\n<p>677<br \/>\n00:42:40,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:45,000<br \/>\nGod will do it if we hold onto<br \/>\nhim and that is what he does for<\/p>\n<p>678<br \/>\n00:42:45,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:47,200<br \/>\nElijah.<br \/>\nAnd so what we find out is, the <\/p>\n<p>679<br \/>\n00:42:47,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:51,100<br \/>\nway that Elijah is characterized<br \/>\nin the New Testament is he is <\/p>\n<p>680<br \/>\n00:42:51,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:54,800<br \/>\nnot the prophet of fire and that<br \/>\nis why when James, and John say,<\/p>\n<p>681<br \/>\n00:42:54,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:57,100<br \/>\ndo you want us to call down fire<br \/>\nfrom heaven? <\/p>\n<p>682<br \/>\n00:42:57,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:42:59,600<br \/>\nLike Elijah, you remember what<br \/>\nJesus says? <\/p>\n<p>683<br \/>\n00:43:00,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:04,500<br \/>\nYou do not know what Spirit your<br \/>\nof. <\/p>\n<p>684<br \/>\n00:43:05,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:07,100<br \/>\nHe says, why don&#8217;t you go back<br \/>\nagain? <\/p>\n<p>685<br \/>\n00:43:07,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:09,900<br \/>\nAnd look at what the spirit of<br \/>\nElijah actually is because it&#8217;s <\/p>\n<p>686<br \/>\n00:43:09,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:15,400<br \/>\nnot that It&#8217;s not the fiery<br \/>\njudgment, it&#8217;s not the Miracles <\/p>\n<p>687<br \/>\n00:43:15,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:19,500<br \/>\ninstead, the spirit and power of<br \/>\nElijah is that prayer that he <\/p>\n<p>688<br \/>\n00:43:19,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:24,700<br \/>\nprayed, it was that feeling and<br \/>\nthat way of life, that he lived <\/p>\n<p>689<br \/>\n00:43:24,700 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:28,300<br \/>\nwhen he stretched out on the<br \/>\nchild, it was when he recognized<\/p>\n<p>690<br \/>\n00:43:28,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:31,500<br \/>\nthat relationships matter that<br \/>\nthe father&#8217;s will love the <\/p>\n<p>691<br \/>\n00:43:31,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:35,000<br \/>\nchildren.<br \/>\nThat the disobedient. <\/p>\n<p>692<br \/>\n00:43:36,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:40,500<br \/>\nWill become obedient will become<br \/>\nwise to follow the just or the <\/p>\n<p>693<br \/>\n00:43:40,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:44,400<br \/>\nrighteous.<br \/>\nThat was the spirit of Elijah. <\/p>\n<p>694<br \/>\n00:43:45,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:48,200<br \/>\nIt was turning people.<br \/>\nIt was the answer to his prayer.<\/p>\n<p>695<br \/>\n00:43:50,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:54,200<br \/>\nAnd so that&#8217;s why we find out<br \/>\nthat in Luke 1:16-17 that John <\/p>\n<p>696<br \/>\n00:43:54,200 &#8211;&gt; 00:43:56,700<br \/>\nthe Baptist would come in the<br \/>\nspirit of Elijah. <\/p>\n<p>697<br \/>\n00:43:58,500 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:01,800<br \/>\nWe find out that John never<br \/>\nperformed any miracles. <\/p>\n<p>698<br \/>\n00:44:03,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:05,700<br \/>\nAnd instead when John was asked,<br \/>\nwho are you? <\/p>\n<p>699<br \/>\n00:44:06,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:08,600<br \/>\nI thought the Pharisees sent men<br \/>\nto ask. <\/p>\n<p>700<br \/>\n00:44:08,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:10,600<br \/>\nWho, are you?<br \/>\nWe need to give an answer to <\/p>\n<p>701<br \/>\n00:44:10,600 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:12,500<br \/>\nthose who sent us.<br \/>\nWhat do you say about yourself? <\/p>\n<p>702<br \/>\n00:44:13,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:16,800<br \/>\nJohn&#8217;s words, are I Am The<br \/>\nVoice? <\/p>\n<p>703<br \/>\n00:44:20,400 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:25,700<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s who I am.<br \/>\nHe was the man all alone. <\/p>\n<p>704<br \/>\n00:44:27,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:33,200<br \/>\nIn the wilderness who realized<br \/>\nthe power of the word of God. <\/p>\n<p>705<br \/>\n00:44:34,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:41,800<br \/>\nthat, that Is what turns hearts?<br \/>\nAnd so God prepared him for that<\/p>\n<p>706<br \/>\n00:44:41,800 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:45,000<br \/>\nGod transformed him.<br \/>\nNo matter how hard it got. <\/p>\n<p>707<br \/>\n00:44:46,000 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:49,000<br \/>\nHe transformed him for what<br \/>\nElijah will do. <\/p>\n<p>708<br \/>\n00:44:51,100 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:54,300<br \/>\nIn the future.<br \/>\nHe will turn the hearts of the <\/p>\n<p>709<br \/>\n00:44:54,300 &#8211;&gt; 00:44:57,900<br \/>\nfathers to their children.<br \/>\nAnd that will finally be the <\/p>\n<p>710<br \/>\n00:44:57,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:01,900<br \/>\nanswer to the prayer.<br \/>\nCan you imagine What do you <\/p>\n<p>711<br \/>\n00:45:01,900 &#8211;&gt; 00:45:03,900<br \/>\nthink it&#8217;s going to be like when<br \/>\nby the grace of God? <\/p>\n<p>712<br \/>\n00:45:04,400 &#8211;&gt;
