Class 5 from this series was used for GCT Episode 158.<\/p>\n
2
\n00:00:03,500 –> 00:00:06,000
\nParadox.
\nRestoration in the Kingdom, <\/p>\n
3
\n00:00:06,400 –> 00:00:07,800
\nplease give me your careful
\nattention. <\/p>\n
4
\n00:00:28,400 –> 00:00:31,000
\nwe’ve looked at some pretty
\nheart-rending things this <\/p>\n
5
\n00:00:31,000 –> 00:00:38,300
\nweekend, and you would think
\nthat the focus on these <\/p>\n
6
\n00:00:38,300 –> 00:00:43,100
\nafflictions is something that Is
\nreserved for certain times and <\/p>\n
7
\n00:00:43,100 –> 00:00:46,400
\nplaces.
\nBut is it really good for me to <\/p>\n
8
\n00:00:46,400 –> 00:00:49,700
\nconsider?
\nWe’ve shown the contrast between<\/p>\n
9
\n00:00:49,700 –> 00:00:52,500
\nAffliction and comfort?
\nAnd, and how Comfort is <\/p>\n
10
\n00:00:52,500 –> 00:00:58,300
\nsomething that in a spiritual
\nsense, addresses Affliction, but<\/p>\n
11
\n00:00:58,300 –> 00:01:02,500
\nthrough the strength, to take it
\nto endure through it and through<\/p>\n
12
\n00:01:02,500 –> 00:01:06,600
\nthe hope of the future.
\nYou may not have realized this, <\/p>\n
13
\n00:01:06,600 –> 00:01:10,300
\nif you are relatively new among
\nchristadelphians, that what <\/p>\n
14
\n00:01:10,300 –> 00:01:13,900
\nwe’ve been speaking about the
\nentire time is the good news <\/p>\n
15
\n00:01:13,900 –> 00:01:16,900
\nconcerning the kingdom of God,
\nand the name of Jesus Christ. <\/p>\n
16
\n00:01:16,900 –> 00:01:21,200
\nAnd it’s good news, because it
\npromises to rectify every issue.<\/p>\n
17
\n00:01:21,200 –> 00:01:26,200
\nEvery problem, every need that
\nmen have in this world. <\/p>\n
18
\n00:01:26,300 –> 00:01:29,200
\nTake everything that’s all
\nmessed up in this world and <\/p>\n
19
\n00:01:29,200 –> 00:01:31,200
\nstraighten it out and make the
\nworld. <\/p>\n
20
\n00:01:31,700 –> 00:01:34,500
\nA place that is restored to its
\noriginal state. <\/p>\n
21
\n00:01:34,700 –> 00:01:37,800
\nIt was like a garden everywhere,
\nwhen the spirit of God, moved <\/p>\n
22
\n00:01:37,800 –> 00:01:42,700
\nacross the face of the deep.
\nAnd there was the presence of <\/p>\n
23
\n00:01:42,700 –> 00:01:47,200
\nthe Lord, as if he is with us.
\nThat’s the idea of the kingdom <\/p>\n
24
\n00:01:47,200 –> 00:01:49,800
\nof God.
\nYou should ask yourself if this <\/p>\n
25
\n00:01:49,800 –> 00:01:54,600
\nmakes sense to me.
\nDo I have a place in that future<\/p>\n
26
\n00:01:55,100 –> 00:02:00,000
\nbut I like to help the Lord when
\nhe becomes king, go to all <\/p>\n
27
\n00:02:00,000 –> 00:02:04,000
\nplaces of the world and feed the
\nhungry, a way to deal with that <\/p>\n
28
\n00:02:04,000 –> 00:02:06,200
\nquestion, for yourself, would be
\nwood. <\/p>\n
29
\n00:02:07,300 –> 00:02:10,000
\nIf I had the opportunity in the
\npower and the means the <\/p>\n
30
\n00:02:10,000 –> 00:02:13,900
\nresources to do that now, and I
\nknew that there were millions of<\/p>\n
31
\n00:02:13,900 –> 00:02:17,300
\npeople starving in a foreign
\ncountry, or that there was there<\/p>\n
32
\n00:02:17,300 –> 00:02:19,400
\nwere girls, that could be
\nrescued from a horrible. <\/p>\n
33
\n00:02:19,400 –> 00:02:22,000
\nKidnapping, other there were
\nchildren who afraid to go to <\/p>\n
34
\n00:02:22,000 –> 00:02:25,800
\nschool.
\nIf I had the power to help what <\/p>\n
35
\n00:02:25,800 –> 00:02:28,400
\nI do that.
\nLook at the answer to that. <\/p>\n
36
\n00:02:28,400 –> 00:02:30,000
\nQuestion is.
\nYes, then all the more. <\/p>\n
37
\n00:02:30,000 –> 00:02:34,900
\nSo would you be able to affirm
\nthe idea that God has offered <\/p>\n
38
\n00:02:34,900 –> 00:02:36,700
\nyou the power to do that in the
\nfuture? <\/p>\n
39
\n00:02:37,300 –> 00:02:42,100
\nSo when you are new among us, or
\nif you have not really seriously<\/p>\n
40
\n00:02:42,100 –> 00:02:44,400
\nconsidered your place, in all
\nthe things that we’ve been <\/p>\n
41
\n00:02:44,400 –> 00:02:49,600
\nspeaking about, you would give
\nserious consideration to the, <\/p>\n
42
\n00:02:50,400 –> 00:02:56,200
\nthe reality of having the
\nopportunity to do this in the <\/p>\n
43
\n00:02:56,200 –> 00:02:59,000
\nkingdom of God.
\nAnd that would be sometime, not <\/p>\n
44
\n00:02:59,000 –> 00:03:02,000
\nin the nebulous regions of
\ndistant future. <\/p>\n
45
\n00:03:02,000 –> 00:03:06,400
\nBut in the very near future so
\nmuch prophetic evidence that the<\/p>\n
46
\n00:03:06,400 –> 00:03:11,500
\nLord is about, Return that this
\npromise that was embodied in the<\/p>\n
47
\n00:03:11,508 –> 00:03:14,400
\nquestion that disciples asked
\nJesus after he came back from <\/p>\n
48
\n00:03:14,400 –> 00:03:16,800
\nthe dead, they said there with
\nthem for 40 days and they said <\/p>\n
49
\n00:03:16,800 –> 00:03:21,100
\nwill you at this time restore
\nthe kingdom to Israel? <\/p>\n
50
\n00:03:21,300 –> 00:03:23,400
\nAnd while he said, well, it’s
\nnot for you to know the times <\/p>\n
51
\n00:03:23,400 –> 00:03:27,200
\nand the seasons but God has
\nfixed everything in his purpose <\/p>\n
52
\n00:03:27,200 –> 00:03:31,000
\nand then he was just taken away.
\nAnd they saw him go and they <\/p>\n
53
\n00:03:31,000 –> 00:03:35,100
\nwere standing there and they
\nsaid staring into the heavens. <\/p>\n
54
\n00:03:35,100 –> 00:03:37,100
\nAnd there were two angels that
\ncame there and they said Add <\/p>\n
55
\n00:03:37,100 –> 00:03:39,700
\nthis same Jesus.
\nWhy are you standing staring <\/p>\n
56
\n00:03:39,700 –> 00:03:43,400
\ninto the clouds the same Jesus
\nthat was taken up from you into <\/p>\n
57
\n00:03:43,400 –> 00:03:45,800
\nheaven?
\nShall so come in like manner. <\/p>\n
58
\n00:03:45,800 –> 00:03:49,500
\nIn other words, he left as a
\nphysical personal being he will <\/p>\n
59
\n00:03:49,500 –> 00:03:52,700
\nreturn as such not as a spirit
\nbut his King. <\/p>\n
60
\n00:03:53,500 –> 00:03:55,900
\nIt’s a fitting King, somebody
\nwho’s not all bound up in the <\/p>\n
61
\n00:03:55,900 –> 00:03:59,400
\nridiculous politics of this
\nworld today, but somebody who is<\/p>\n
62
\n00:03:59,400 –> 00:04:04,300
\nsuited to the task of taking
\nthis world and straightening out<\/p>\n
63
\n00:04:04,300 –> 00:04:10,100
\nevery problem that exists in
\nsuch way that it will bring <\/p>\n
64
\n00:04:10,100 –> 00:04:15,900
\npeace on Earth and Goodwill
\ntoward men and that’s the hope <\/p>\n
65
\n00:04:15,900 –> 00:04:21,800
\nof restoration in the Kingdom.
\nThen again, after thinking, <\/p>\n
66
\n00:04:21,800 –> 00:04:24,700
\nwell, that’s all good news.
\nAnd I agree with you that is <\/p>\n
67
\n00:04:24,700 –> 00:04:28,700
\nreally good news, but I’ve
\nlooked at religion. <\/p>\n
68
\n00:04:30,000 –> 00:04:33,800
\nKind of scene.
\nThe pros and cons. <\/p>\n
69
\n00:04:34,000 –> 00:04:37,100
\nI’ve seen more evil done in the
\nname of religion and any other <\/p>\n
70
\n00:04:37,100 –> 00:04:41,600
\nthing in this world, even people
\noffering their children as burnt<\/p>\n
71
\n00:04:41,600 –> 00:04:44,300
\nofferings in the name of some
\nreligion. <\/p>\n
72
\n00:04:45,100 –> 00:04:47,600
\nIt seems like there have been
\nWars throughout history that <\/p>\n
73
\n00:04:47,600 –> 00:04:52,900
\nwere fought for religious causes
\nAnd then on a more intimate <\/p>\n
74
\n00:04:52,900 –> 00:04:58,000
\nlevel, I don’t know, a God, who
\nanswers prayer necessarily I’ve <\/p>\n
75
\n00:04:58,000 –> 00:05:02,000
\nmade some prayers and it didn’t
\nseem to me that they came out <\/p>\n
76
\n00:05:02,000 –> 00:05:04,600
\nthe way.
\nI thought they would, those are <\/p>\n
77
\n00:05:04,600 –> 00:05:07,900
\nvery real questions.
\nThey all have answers today. <\/p>\n
78
\n00:05:07,900 –> 00:05:10,600
\nWhat we’re going to do is focus
\non some of the paradoxes that <\/p>\n
79
\n00:05:10,600 –> 00:05:15,500
\ncome up in Affliction, where
\neverything you would normally <\/p>\n
80
\n00:05:15,500 –> 00:05:19,100
\nthink about prayer and about
\nGod’s protection, and guidance <\/p>\n
81
\n00:05:19,500 –> 00:05:25,200
\nis love and his Justice doesn’t
\nturn out to be the way it seems.<\/p>\n
82
\n00:05:25,200 –> 00:05:29,700
\nIt should be very easy for
\nexample like job that when you <\/p>\n
83
\n00:05:29,700 –> 00:05:35,400
\nget blindsided with an extreme
\nset of trials. <\/p>\n
84
\n00:05:35,500 –> 00:05:40,500
\nIn his case they were over the
\ntop that you you call God’s <\/p>\n
85
\n00:05:40,500 –> 00:05:46,800
\njustice and to question and you
\nyou look at yourself and say why<\/p>\n
86
\n00:05:46,800 –> 00:05:49,000
\ndoes this happen to me?
\nWhy did this happen to those <\/p>\n
87
\n00:05:49,100 –> 00:05:50,300
\nschool children?
\nWhy did it? <\/p>\n
88
\n00:05:50,400 –> 00:05:52,400
\nHappen to these young girls that
\nwere kidnapped. <\/p>\n
89
\n00:05:52,400 –> 00:05:54,700
\nWhy did it happen to that
\nNation? <\/p>\n
90
\n00:05:54,700 –> 00:05:56,800
\nWhy is that Nation full of
\nrubble? <\/p>\n
91
\n00:05:56,800 –> 00:05:59,900
\nWhen the people used to have
\nrestaurants and houses and <\/p>\n
92
\n00:05:59,900 –> 00:06:03,400
\napartments and enjoy the
\ngoodness, at least of their own <\/p>\n
93
\n00:06:03,400 –> 00:06:07,700
\nnatural lives in their land.
\nWhen all these things are looked<\/p>\n
94
\n00:06:07,700 –> 00:06:12,000
\nat a lot of questions come up
\nthan involved the paradoxes of <\/p>\n
95
\n00:06:12,000 –> 00:06:14,100
\nFaith.
\nSo we’re going to take a look at<\/p>\n
96
\n00:06:14,100 –> 00:06:17,800
\nthose paradoxes of the
\nafflictions that we go through <\/p>\n
97
\n00:06:17,800 –> 00:06:21,200
\npersonally.
\nAnd that may be a Part of the <\/p>\n
98
\n00:06:21,200 –> 00:06:24,500
\nquestions you have about God, is
\nhe real? <\/p>\n
99
\n00:06:24,500 –> 00:06:28,200
\nIs he really loving, is his
\njustice of a true thing? <\/p>\n
100
\n00:06:28,200 –> 00:06:30,700
\nOr is it full of contradiction
\nthat? <\/p>\n
101
\n00:06:30,700 –> 00:06:32,700
\nI can see.
\nAnd then I don’t understand. <\/p>\n
102
\n00:06:33,100 –> 00:06:36,500
\nThose are all the questions that
\nare at the root of Faith. <\/p>\n
103
\n00:06:36,500 –> 00:06:41,200
\nThey form the foundation of
\nfaith when they are resolved. <\/p>\n
104
\n00:06:41,500 –> 00:06:43,700
\nSo we are here now to consider
\nthe answers. <\/p>\n
105
\n00:06:43,700 –> 00:06:46,600
\nAs we look at this big picture
\nof restoration in the Kingdom, <\/p>\n
106
\n00:06:48,200 –> 00:06:54,500
\ndid you know, That in the Bible.
\nThe word Affliction is also <\/p>\n
107
\n00:06:54,500 –> 00:07:01,100
\ntranslated narrow.
\nAnd I mean everything, we’ve <\/p>\n
108
\n00:07:01,100 –> 00:07:04,500
\nsaid about Affliction, would you
\nthink that the same word that <\/p>\n
109
\n00:07:04,500 –> 00:07:08,100
\ncomes out in the English
\nlanguage, as Affliction would <\/p>\n
110
\n00:07:08,100 –> 00:07:09,700
\ncome out in the English
\nlanguage? <\/p>\n
111
\n00:07:09,700 –> 00:07:14,100
\nAs narrow?
\nWhat on Earth does narrow have <\/p>\n
112
\n00:07:14,100 –> 00:07:17,600
\nto do with the kinds of things
\nthat we’ve been thinking about? <\/p>\n
113
\n00:07:19,900 –> 00:07:23,300
\nWhat you remember, Jesus, used
\nthat particular word to describe<\/p>\n
114
\n00:07:23,300 –> 00:07:25,700
\nwhat?
\nIt’s like to have faith to <\/p>\n
115
\n00:07:25,700 –> 00:07:31,000
\nfollow him to say, you know, I
\nbelieve this and so I’m See if I<\/p>\n
116
\n00:07:31,000 –> 00:07:36,400
\ncan enter through the door that
\nhe said, is now open to me and <\/p>\n
117
\n00:07:36,400 –> 00:07:42,500
\nwalk down a path that he said,
\nis the way to truth life. <\/p>\n
118
\n00:07:43,600 –> 00:07:46,900
\nSo he said in that context,
\nenter in at the strait gate. <\/p>\n
119
\n00:07:48,600 –> 00:07:50,600
\nWide is the gate and Broad is
\nthe way that leads to <\/p>\n
120
\n00:07:50,600 –> 00:07:55,700
\ndestruction and many there be
\nwhich go in thereat, but the <\/p>\n
121
\n00:07:55,700 –> 00:07:59,900
\nstrait is the gate and narrow.
\nThere’s that word, narrow is the<\/p>\n
122
\n00:07:59,900 –> 00:08:02,700
\nway which leads unto life and
\nfew there, be that find it. <\/p>\n
123
\n00:08:02,700 –> 00:08:08,600
\nSo would you have thought that
\nJesus was saying that straight <\/p>\n
124
\n00:08:08,600 –> 00:08:11,100
\nis the gate and Afflicted is the
\nway. <\/p>\n
125
\n00:08:12,500 –> 00:08:16,100
\nThe language way, the language
\ncomes through in the English <\/p>\n
126
\n00:08:16,300 –> 00:08:19,700
\ndoesn’t really convey.
\nWhat Jesus is saying, it falls <\/p>\n
127
\n00:08:19,700 –> 00:08:23,200
\nshort of being clear, and that’s
\nnot to say that Jesus was not <\/p>\n
128
\n00:08:23,200 –> 00:08:26,700
\nvery clear in everything.
\nHe said, his words were perfect,<\/p>\n
129
\n00:08:26,900 –> 00:08:29,600
\nthey were perfectly Chosen.
\nAnd I think in many times when <\/p>\n
130
\n00:08:29,608 –> 00:08:32,200
\nyou have a case like this, where
\nyou don’t really quite get the <\/p>\n
131
\n00:08:32,200 –> 00:08:37,000
\nsense of what he’s saying, from
\nthe English rendition of it, it <\/p>\n
132
\n00:08:37,000 –> 00:08:40,299
\nstill works on all levels.
\nSo people think they get the <\/p>\n
133
\n00:08:40,299 –> 00:08:45,400
\nidea that Live a life that
\nfollows after Christ is going to<\/p>\n
134
\n00:08:45,400 –> 00:08:47,300
\nbe, you’re going to have to be
\nstraight. <\/p>\n
135
\n00:08:47,900 –> 00:08:50,700
\nThat would be the simple
\ninterpretation of this, the <\/p>\n
136
\n00:08:51,100 –> 00:08:56,700
\nstraight language that were
\nusing here and that the gate is <\/p>\n
137
\n00:08:56,700 –> 00:08:58,600
\nstraight.
\nIn other words, straight, and <\/p>\n
138
\n00:08:58,600 –> 00:09:05,700
\nnarrow means it’s on course in a
\nsimplistic interpretation of <\/p>\n
139
\n00:09:05,700 –> 00:09:09,700
\nthis line, but let’s take a look
\nat what Jesus really is saying. <\/p>\n
140
\n00:09:10,600 –> 00:09:15,700
\nIf he’s saying narrow is the way
\nthere’s two words here, straight<\/p>\n
141
\n00:09:15,700 –> 00:09:19,200
\nand narrow, the gate is straight
\nand narrow is the way. <\/p>\n
142
\n00:09:19,200 –> 00:09:23,200
\nWhat’s the game, as we said
\nbefore the gatekeeper, and the <\/p>\n
143
\n00:09:23,208 –> 00:09:25,900
\ngate is the Ingress.
\nAnd egress into the house of <\/p>\n
144
\n00:09:25,900 –> 00:09:28,100
\nGod.
\nHe said, he’s got a big house <\/p>\n
145
\n00:09:28,100 –> 00:09:29,800
\nand it’s a lot of venues all
\nover the world. <\/p>\n
146
\n00:09:29,800 –> 00:09:33,100
\nAnd Jesus said in my father’s,
\nThere’s house are many, venues <\/p>\n
147
\n00:09:33,100 –> 00:09:37,000
\nits worldwide now that it’s been
\ntaken out of Israel and offered <\/p>\n
148
\n00:09:37,000 –> 00:09:39,200
\nto the Gentiles.
\nFor 2000 years have been <\/p>\n
149
\n00:09:39,200 –> 00:09:43,200
\nspreading all across the world.
\nIt’s a big house because it’s a <\/p>\n
150
\n00:09:43,200 –> 00:09:48,200
\nspiritual house or Temple, and
\nit has a lot of rooms in it or a<\/p>\n
151
\n00:09:48,208 –> 00:09:51,300
\nlot of venues places where
\npeople assembled to think about <\/p>\n
152
\n00:09:51,300 –> 00:09:54,200
\nGod just like today.
\nThis is one of the runes in that<\/p>\n
153
\n00:09:54,200 –> 00:09:58,000
\nhouse, the gate is the entrance
\nto that house and that would <\/p>\n
154
\n00:09:58,000 –> 00:10:01,900
\nmean that when you come to the
\ndoor of God’s, House, a <\/p>\n
155
\n00:10:01,908 –> 00:10:06,500
\nspiritual Temple and you think
\nabout maybe going inside and <\/p>\n
156
\n00:10:06,500 –> 00:10:09,500
\nstaying inside, living inside
\nthat house in one of those <\/p>\n
157
\n00:10:09,500 –> 00:10:15,000
\nrooms, then what he’s saying is
\nthere’s a certain characteristic<\/p>\n
158
\n00:10:15,000 –> 00:10:17,100
\nto entering that gate.
\nAnd in this case, the word <\/p>\n
159
\n00:10:17,100 –> 00:10:21,400
\nstraight means it has obstacles
\nit almost, you wouldn’t get <\/p>\n
160
\n00:10:21,400 –> 00:10:23,300
\nobstacles out of the word
\nstraight anymore than you get <\/p>\n
161
\n00:10:23,300 –> 00:10:26,400
\nAffliction of the word narrow,
\nbut he’s saying it’s going to, <\/p>\n
162
\n00:10:26,400 –> 00:10:31,100
\nthere’s going to be an obstacle
\nto your entering that house. <\/p>\n
163
\n00:10:32,300 –> 00:10:35,000
\nSo, if you’ve stood on one side
\nand then come through, you know,<\/p>\n
164
\n00:10:35,000 –> 00:10:37,100
\nthat there are all sorts and
\nyou’ve watched other people <\/p>\n
165
\n00:10:37,100 –> 00:10:39,600
\nstand on one side of that gate
\nand then come through that gate <\/p>\n
166
\n00:10:39,600 –> 00:10:40,700
\ninto God’s house.
\nYou know. <\/p>\n
167
\n00:10:40,700 –> 00:10:44,300
\nThere are obstacles in the way
\nthe things you thinking, well, <\/p>\n
168
\n00:10:44,300 –> 00:10:46,900
\nyou know, maybe not right now.
\nI do not sure I want to walk in <\/p>\n
169
\n00:10:46,900 –> 00:10:48,600
\nthere and sit in there for the
\nrest of my life. <\/p>\n
170
\n00:10:48,800 –> 00:10:51,600
\nBecause on the outside of this
\nhouse, there are certain things <\/p>\n
171
\n00:10:51,600 –> 00:10:53,500
\nand conditions that are working
\non me. <\/p>\n
172
\n00:10:53,500 –> 00:10:55,300
\nAnd on the inside of the house
\nthat the other things in <\/p>\n
173
\n00:10:55,300 –> 00:10:57,800
\nconditions, we’re going to kind
\nof like make maybe make <\/p>\n
174
\n00:10:57,800 –> 00:11:00,800
\nrestrictions, put me in an
\nuncomfortable position but <\/p>\n
175
\n00:11:00,800 –> 00:11:05,700
\nnevertheless What, what you can
\nreadily see in the reality of <\/p>\n
176
\n00:11:05,700 –> 00:11:09,600
\nwhat he’s saying is, yeah,
\nthere’s obstacles in the way of <\/p>\n
177
\n00:11:09,600 –> 00:11:13,000
\ngoing through that gate.
\nAnd then the part that we don’t <\/p>\n
178
\n00:11:13,000 –> 00:11:17,600
\nwant to think about, we, it’s
\nhard to admit, but is as true as<\/p>\n
179
\n00:11:17,600 –> 00:11:20,600
\ntomorrow.
\nAnd that is that the the way <\/p>\n
180
\n00:11:20,600 –> 00:11:25,400
\nthat you follow once beyond that
\ngate is full of Affliction. <\/p>\n
181
\n00:11:26,000 –> 00:11:29,400
\nThat’s the part that we’re
\nsupposed to understand what he’s<\/p>\n
182
\n00:11:29,400 –> 00:11:32,800
\ntrying to get across to us.
\nSo he says, beloved do not think<\/p>\n
183
\n00:11:32,800 –> 00:11:35,600
\nit strange?
\nThis is elsewhere coming from <\/p>\n
184
\n00:11:36,300 –> 00:11:39,700
\nthe inspired word of the Lord,
\ndon’t think it’s strange. <\/p>\n
185
\n00:11:40,600 –> 00:11:44,500
\nIf there’s obstacles and
\nafflictions which in this <\/p>\n
186
\n00:11:44,500 –> 00:11:47,300
\ncontext, he refers to as fiery
\ntrials, don’t think that’s <\/p>\n
187
\n00:11:47,300 –> 00:11:50,900
\nstrange.
\nAs if people who just live <\/p>\n
188
\n00:11:50,900 –> 00:11:53,400
\nnormal lives out in the world,
\ndon’t have fiery trials, they <\/p>\n
189
\n00:11:53,400 –> 00:11:55,000
\ndo.
\nThe difference is they don’t <\/p>\n
190
\n00:11:55,000 –> 00:11:58,500
\nhave any hope you come through
\nthat gate and enter that way. <\/p>\n
191
\n00:11:58,700 –> 00:12:01,900
\nThe fiery trials are in the
\ncontext of a hope that anchors <\/p>\n
192
\n00:12:01,900 –> 00:12:06,200
\nyou in every respect for
\nanything that can come up and he<\/p>\n
193
\n00:12:06,200 –> 00:12:09,200
\nis the God of All Comfort.
\nSo he says, don’t think <\/p>\n
194
\n00:12:09,200 –> 00:12:12,900
\nsomething strange has happened
\nto you but Rejoice to the extent<\/p>\n
195
\n00:12:12,900 –> 00:12:15,600
\nthat you are partaking of,
\nChrist’s sufferings that when <\/p>\n
196
\n00:12:15,600 –> 00:12:19,400
\nhis glory is revealed, you may
\nalso be glad with exceeding joy <\/p>\n
197
\n00:12:19,400 –> 00:12:23,100
\nin the point.
\nThere is entering, discipleship,<\/p>\n
198
\n00:12:24,000 –> 00:12:26,700
\nhas obstacles.
\nWhere’s Jesus? <\/p>\n
199
\n00:12:26,700 –> 00:12:29,300
\nPut it to one, man.
\nIt’s going to cost you. <\/p>\n
200
\n00:12:30,500 –> 00:12:32,900
\nAnd he said elsewhere, but you
\nshould count the cost. <\/p>\n
201
\n00:12:32,900 –> 00:12:35,000
\nAnd once you’ve counted the
\ncost, you make the investment. <\/p>\n
202
\n00:12:35,000 –> 00:12:36,300
\nAnd once you’ve made the
\ninvestment, you have to <\/p>\n
203
\n00:12:36,300 –> 00:12:38,900
\nunderstand, you have everything
\nin the world, the game. <\/p>\n
204
\n00:12:39,200 –> 00:12:42,400
\nBecause if Jesus was promised,
\nthe sense of the world as his <\/p>\n
205
\n00:12:42,400 –> 00:12:45,900
\ninheritance and you are heirs
\nwith him, according to the <\/p>\n
206
\n00:12:45,900 –> 00:12:50,400
\npromises to Abraham, then that
\npromise conveys to you and you <\/p>\n
207
\n00:12:50,400 –> 00:12:52,300
\nare an heir to the extensive the
\nworld. <\/p>\n
208
\n00:12:52,300 –> 00:12:55,600
\nIn other words, you will take
\npart ownership in the entire <\/p>\n
209
\n00:12:55,600 –> 00:12:59,900
\nplanet Earth and if you hate the
\nway things are now and you love <\/p>\n
210
\n00:12:59,900 –> 00:13:03,900
\nthe theater, Off the idea of
\nthis World Redemption, you would<\/p>\n
211
\n00:13:03,900 –> 00:13:07,600
\nnot be able to resist.
\nThe offer of participating in <\/p>\n
212
\n00:13:07,600 –> 00:13:10,800
\nthat inheritance.
\nThat is yours for the taking in <\/p>\n
213
\n00:13:10,800 –> 00:13:16,300
\nfaith.
\nBut entering has obstacles. <\/p>\n
214
\n00:13:16,300 –> 00:13:20,700
\nAnd the way is strewn with
\nafflictions, this was the path <\/p>\n
215
\n00:13:20,900 –> 00:13:24,100
\nthat Jesus followed two to sort
\nof lead the way. <\/p>\n
216
\n00:13:24,100 –> 00:13:26,100
\nAnd he said, I am the way, the
\ntruth and the life. <\/p>\n
217
\n00:13:26,300 –> 00:13:29,500
\nHe led the way and he proved to
\nus the point of those <\/p>\n
218
\n00:13:29,500 –> 00:13:33,300
\nafflictions when you make when
\nyou address the afflictions like<\/p>\n
219
\n00:13:33,300 –> 00:13:37,600
\nhe did all kinds of things
\nemerge from that in the context <\/p>\n
220
\n00:13:37,600 –> 00:13:41,700
\nof that Affliction that are
\nworthwhile that provide hope <\/p>\n
221
\n00:13:41,700 –> 00:13:44,700
\nthat that flesh out this vision
\nof the future, that provide the <\/p>\n
222
\n00:13:44,700 –> 00:13:48,500
\ndetails necessary to understand.
\nThis is true, the truth, the <\/p>\n
223
\n00:13:48,500 –> 00:13:51,100
\nwhole truth and Nothing.
\nBut the truth from the mouth of <\/p>\n
224
\n00:13:51,100 –> 00:13:53,200
\nthe Creator and sustainer of the
\nuniverse. <\/p>\n
225
\n00:13:54,100 –> 00:13:55,800
\nSo would be walking in his
\nsteps. <\/p>\n
226
\n00:13:55,800 –> 00:13:57,600
\nWe’re going to experience the
\nsame things. <\/p>\n
227
\n00:13:58,500 –> 00:14:01,000
\nLet’s look at some discouraging
\nperceptions that come out. <\/p>\n
228
\n00:14:01,000 –> 00:14:04,900
\nAnd I got these mainly from, I
\nasked, Amy, what was it about <\/p>\n
229
\n00:14:04,900 –> 00:14:08,000
\nyour faith?
\nThat didn’t work when Dominic <\/p>\n
230
\n00:14:08,000 –> 00:14:11,800
\ndied when everything fell apart
\nfor you and you said, when <\/p>\n
231
\n00:14:11,800 –> 00:14:14,200
\neverything you thought about the
\nway God was working with us, <\/p>\n
232
\n00:14:14,200 –> 00:14:18,200
\ndidn’t really turn out to be to
\nbe what actually happened when <\/p>\n
233
\n00:14:18,200 –> 00:14:20,400
\nyou needed him the most.
\nIt didn’t really seem like he <\/p>\n
234
\n00:14:20,400 –> 00:14:23,000
\nwas there when you thought he
\nwas protecting your son, he let <\/p>\n
235
\n00:14:23,000 –> 00:14:25,800
\nhim die.
\nWhat were those paradoxes? <\/p>\n
236
\n00:14:25,800 –> 00:14:31,500
\nWhat were the verses that seem
\nstrange to you in the midst of <\/p>\n
237
\n00:14:31,500 –> 00:14:35,100
\nthis horrible tragedy?
\nAnd so, she told me, well, I had<\/p>\n
238
\n00:14:35,100 –> 00:14:36,400
\nproblem with this, I promise
\nthis. <\/p>\n
239
\n00:14:36,400 –> 00:14:39,100
\nI always thought this about this
\npoint, and I didn’t understand <\/p>\n
240
\n00:14:39,100 –> 00:14:42,100
\nthis once Dominic died.
\nI had prayed for his protection <\/p>\n
241
\n00:14:42,100 –> 00:14:45,500
\nand God didn’t protect him.
\nSo there were versus that caused<\/p>\n
242
\n00:14:45,500 –> 00:14:49,000
\nher to believe that she had a
\ncertain kind of relationship. <\/p>\n
243
\n00:14:49,200 –> 00:14:54,900
\nGod, that would transfer to the
\nthe watchful eye and protection <\/p>\n
244
\n00:14:54,900 –> 00:14:58,600
\nof the Lord over her son.
\nAnd that’s not what happened. <\/p>\n
245
\n00:14:59,200 –> 00:15:00,900
\nSo that happens that can make
\nyou say. <\/p>\n
246
\n00:15:00,900 –> 00:15:02,600
\nDo I really want to go through
\nthat gate? <\/p>\n
247
\n00:15:03,700 –> 00:15:05,800
\nDo I want to walk along that way
\nand take those afflictions? <\/p>\n
248
\n00:15:05,800 –> 00:15:09,400
\nIs that me or can I just go?
\nAnd I have my naked party out of<\/p>\n
249
\n00:15:09,408 –> 00:15:12,300
\nmy life and travel a lot, and
\nthe world is my oyster and we’ll<\/p>\n
250
\n00:15:12,300 –> 00:15:15,100
\nhave some good meals would do
\nsome good things will have some <\/p>\n
251
\n00:15:15,100 –> 00:15:17,600
\nfun, I’ll make a little bit of a
\ndifference in somebody’s life <\/p>\n
252
\n00:15:17,700 –> 00:15:19,500
\nand then there you are, that’s
\nyour life. <\/p>\n
253
\n00:15:19,500 –> 00:15:23,000
\nAnd at the end of it, whatever
\ngood you did fades in evaporates<\/p>\n
254
\n00:15:23,400 –> 00:15:26,900
\ninto the past.
\nWhen the memory of you phase <\/p>\n
255
\n00:15:27,000 –> 00:15:31,700
\nafter your demise So these were
\nsome of these spiritual <\/p>\n
256
\n00:15:31,700 –> 00:15:34,500
\nparadoxes that came up in that
\ndiscussion. <\/p>\n
257
\n00:15:35,100 –> 00:15:40,000
\nComfort was first used in
\nscripture to do to describe Noah<\/p>\n
258
\n00:15:41,100 –> 00:15:42,400
\nyet.
\nThe problem with that whole <\/p>\n
259
\n00:15:42,400 –> 00:15:45,200
\nstory is God destroyed.
\nAll Flesh off the face of the <\/p>\n
260
\n00:15:45,200 –> 00:15:47,400
\nearth and its only saved a
\npeople’s where is there any <\/p>\n
261
\n00:15:47,400 –> 00:15:49,600
\ncomfort in that?
\nThat’s a paradox. <\/p>\n
262
\n00:15:50,800 –> 00:15:52,700
\nThese are scriptural.
\nParadoxes. <\/p>\n
263
\n00:15:53,100 –> 00:15:56,100
\nEsau was comforted by thoughts
\nof Vengeance when he thought you<\/p>\n
264
\n00:15:56,100 –> 00:15:58,900
\nwere going to kill my brother.
\nHe cheated me out of my hair. <\/p>\n
265
\n00:15:59,000 –> 00:16:01,900
\nIt has a kill the guy Jacob
\nfound out. <\/p>\n
266
\n00:16:01,900 –> 00:16:08,400
\nHe had, he had to take off out
\nof there and Yet it says he was <\/p>\n
267
\n00:16:08,400 –> 00:16:11,400
\ncomforted by his Vengeance.
\nDoes that sound like something <\/p>\n
268
\n00:16:11,400 –> 00:16:12,200
\nthat’s?
\nGood to you? <\/p>\n
269
\n00:16:12,900 –> 00:16:15,200
\nThere’s a paradox.
\nThey’re going to take a look at <\/p>\n
270
\n00:16:15,200 –> 00:16:18,500
\nthat Comfort.
\nSeems little bit more elusive <\/p>\n
271
\n00:16:20,100 –> 00:16:22,400
\nwhen you need it.
\nThe most when aiming needed <\/p>\n
272
\n00:16:22,400 –> 00:16:26,500
\nComfort the most, there was no
\nComfort to be found and this is <\/p>\n
273
\n00:16:26,500 –> 00:16:29,200
\ncommon in the most severe of
\ntragedies. <\/p>\n
274
\n00:16:30,000 –> 00:16:34,700
\nI mean, everybody works with
\nstress and distress. <\/p>\n
275
\n00:16:35,800 –> 00:16:39,100
\nSimilarly, in some cases, in
\nmany cases and also differently,<\/p>\n
276
\n00:16:39,300 –> 00:16:42,800
\ndepending on how you’re wired
\nand what your perceptions of <\/p>\n
277
\n00:16:42,800 –> 00:16:50,200
\nthings are, but it seems to be
\nnot there. when you need it, the<\/p>\n
278
\n00:16:50,208 –> 00:16:54,700
\nmost If you live anytime in the
\ntruth, if you follow after this <\/p>\n
279
\n00:16:54,700 –> 00:16:56,700
\nway, you enter that gate and
\nyou’re going to see that. <\/p>\n
280
\n00:16:56,700 –> 00:16:59,100
\nThis is one of the most
\nperplexing Parts about life in <\/p>\n
281
\n00:16:59,108 –> 00:17:01,700
\nthe truth.
\nEspecially if you go way down, <\/p>\n
282
\n00:17:02,400 –> 00:17:04,400
\nyou’re going to be looking for
\ndeliverance, from God. <\/p>\n
283
\n00:17:04,700 –> 00:17:05,900
\nAnd just doesn’t seem to be
\nthere. <\/p>\n
284
\n00:17:07,000 –> 00:17:09,500
\nWhen you need comfort just done
\nseem to be there, so that’s <\/p>\n
285
\n00:17:09,500 –> 00:17:13,099
\nanother Paradox.
\nAnother one is, we’re promise, <\/p>\n
286
\n00:17:13,099 –> 00:17:16,500
\nwhatever we ask in prayer and
\nthen the answers, turn out to be<\/p>\n
287
\n00:17:16,500 –> 00:17:17,900
\ndifferent.
\nSo, how do you make sense out of<\/p>\n
288
\n00:17:17,900 –> 00:17:21,400
\nthat Paradox?
\nAmy had prayed while Dominic was<\/p>\n
289
\n00:17:21,400 –> 00:17:25,800
\nin college for her son for God
\nto protect her son, while he was<\/p>\n
290
\n00:17:25,800 –> 00:17:29,400
\naway from home and he dies in an
\naccident down there in 15 <\/p>\n
291
\n00:17:29,400 –> 00:17:32,300
\nminutes.
\nWas that mean? <\/p>\n
292
\n00:17:33,400 –> 00:17:35,800
\nWe’re promised whatever we ask
\nin prayer, what happened? <\/p>\n
293
\n00:17:38,300 –> 00:17:40,700
\nIt doesn’t seem to be true to
\nthe Bible lie to me. <\/p>\n
294
\n00:17:41,900 –> 00:17:44,600
\nYou know, Amy could not figure
\nout how it was. <\/p>\n
295
\n00:17:44,600 –> 00:17:47,600
\nIf she prayed for his protection
\nGod, let him die when he <\/p>\n
296
\n00:17:47,600 –> 00:17:51,400
\npromised the answer to her
\nprayer. <\/p>\n
297
\n00:17:52,700 –> 00:17:55,300
\nSo that’s a paradox that needs
\nto be resolved, it doesn’t it? <\/p>\n
298
\n00:17:56,300 –> 00:17:59,100
\nAnd then there was this promise
\nthat there’s an angel of the <\/p>\n
299
\n00:17:59,100 –> 00:18:01,500
\nLord that camps around you and
\nwill deliver you. <\/p>\n
300
\n00:18:03,200 –> 00:18:06,900
\nAnd yet you have one fiery trial
\nafter another, there are Peaks <\/p>\n
301
\n00:18:06,900 –> 00:18:09,700
\nand valleys in life.
\nThe Peaks are pretty nice but <\/p>\n
302
\n00:18:09,700 –> 00:18:12,300
\nthe valleys are awful and you
\ngot to wonder. <\/p>\n
303
\n00:18:12,300 –> 00:18:15,800
\nSo where’s the encamping angel?
\nIf where was that angel? <\/p>\n
304
\n00:18:16,300 –> 00:18:21,000
\nWhen I was in the pits of
\ndespair, Let’s take a look at <\/p>\n
305
\n00:18:21,008 –> 00:18:23,100
\nthese and see if we can make a
\nsimple. <\/p>\n
306
\n00:18:23,100 –> 00:18:25,500
\nResolution, to what we’re
\nthinking about, take these <\/p>\n
307
\n00:18:25,500 –> 00:18:28,600
\nparadoxes, put them in context
\nof scripture and resolve them in<\/p>\n
308
\n00:18:28,600 –> 00:18:33,700
\ncontext in context, not only of
\ntheir immediate context in <\/p>\n
309
\n00:18:33,700 –> 00:18:36,400
\nscripture, but in the context of
\neverything we’ve been talking <\/p>\n
310
\n00:18:36,400 –> 00:18:41,000
\nabout using hope for strength.
\nInstead of core Deliverance, how<\/p>\n
311
\n00:18:41,000 –> 00:18:43,500
\ncan it be said that Noah was a
\ncomfort? <\/p>\n
312
\n00:18:44,000 –> 00:18:48,100
\nI mean, this was from his birth.
\nThe idea about Noah and his name<\/p>\n
313
\n00:18:48,100 –> 00:18:49,100
\nwas, he was going to be a
\ncomfortable. <\/p>\n
314
\n00:18:50,100 –> 00:18:53,200
\nAnd then everybody in the world
\ngets destroyed. <\/p>\n
315
\n00:18:53,200 –> 00:18:56,900
\nHe saves animals instead of men
\nand they’re only eight people <\/p>\n
316
\n00:18:56,900 –> 00:19:00,800
\nsaved.
\nThis is where the idea of <\/p>\n
317
\n00:19:00,800 –> 00:19:04,100
\ncomfort and the name of Noah
\ncome together in the Bible. <\/p>\n
318
\n00:19:04,100 –> 00:19:06,900
\nIn Genesis 529 Noah’s name means
\nrest. <\/p>\n
319
\n00:19:07,300 –> 00:19:11,000
\nHe was named rest specifically,
\nbecause way Max said his dad, <\/p>\n
320
\n00:19:11,400 –> 00:19:15,800
\nthis one will Comfort us, a sort
\nof a prophetic side to this <\/p>\n
321
\n00:19:16,400 –> 00:19:18,100
\nconcerning.
\nOur work in the toil of our <\/p>\n
322
\n00:19:18,100 –> 00:19:21,600
\nhands because the of the ground,
\nwhich the Lord has cursed, just <\/p>\n
323
\n00:19:21,600 –> 00:19:24,800
\ntwo things going on this way.
\nMax seem to understand that <\/p>\n
324
\n00:19:24,800 –> 00:19:27,100
\nthere would be a prophetic
\ncomfort that would come from <\/p>\n
325
\n00:19:27,100 –> 00:19:30,600
\nNoah.
\nGod, had cursed the ground. <\/p>\n
326
\n00:19:32,100 –> 00:19:35,000
\nSo there’s a relationship
\nbetween the curse of the flood <\/p>\n
327
\n00:19:35,300 –> 00:19:38,700
\nand the comfort that Noah would
\nprovide and what is that <\/p>\n
328
\n00:19:38,700 –> 00:19:41,300
\nComfort?
\nWell, it turns out on everybody <\/p>\n
329
\n00:19:41,300 –> 00:19:44,700
\nknows how the story ends that.
\nOnce they had the ark came to <\/p>\n
330
\n00:19:44,700 –> 00:19:48,100
\nrest, God came to Noah and he
\nsaid it shall be. <\/p>\n
331
\n00:19:48,100 –> 00:19:52,200
\nWhen I bring a cloud over the
\nearth and the rain bow shall be <\/p>\n
332
\n00:19:52,200 –> 00:19:56,800
\nseen in the cloud and I will
\nremember the Covenant, which is <\/p>\n
333
\n00:19:56,800 –> 00:19:59,600
\nbetween me and you and every
\nliving Living creature of the <\/p>\n
334
\n00:19:59,600 –> 00:20:01,000
\nearth and the waters shall
\nnever. <\/p>\n
335
\n00:20:01,000 –> 00:20:05,300
\nAgain, Destroy All Flesh.
\nThe rainbow shall be in the <\/p>\n
336
\n00:20:05,300 –> 00:20:09,300
\ncloud and I, and I will look on
\nit to remember the Everlasting <\/p>\n
337
\n00:20:09,300 –> 00:20:13,200
\ncoffin, Covenant, when the
\nrainbow is in the cloud. <\/p>\n
338
\n00:20:14,700 –> 00:20:18,600
\nSo this is was the beginning of
\nGod’s promise to save everybody,<\/p>\n
339
\n00:20:18,600 –> 00:20:21,900
\ninstead of destroy everybody.
\nAnd again, it was in the context<\/p>\n
340
\n00:20:21,900 –> 00:20:26,700
\nof This Global Affliction of the
\ndestruction of the flood. <\/p>\n
341
\n00:20:27,200 –> 00:20:30,200
\nSo that’s how it’s Noah became a
\ncomfort. <\/p>\n
342
\n00:20:30,300 –> 00:20:35,500
\nIt was to know that God began to
\nfully Express this Covenant of <\/p>\n
343
\n00:20:35,500 –> 00:20:38,300
\nsalvation of the earth and its
\npeople. <\/p>\n
344
\n00:20:39,900 –> 00:20:44,200
\nSo then there’s the Paradox of
\nVengeance being there in Esau in<\/p>\n
345
\n00:20:44,200 –> 00:20:47,300
\nthe form of comfort.
\nHow is there any comfort in <\/p>\n
346
\n00:20:47,300 –> 00:20:52,600
\nvengeance?
\nThis is where this comes up and <\/p>\n
347
\n00:20:52,600 –> 00:20:56,400
\nthe words of Esau her older son
\nback as older, son were told to <\/p>\n
348
\n00:20:56,408 –> 00:20:58,200
\nRebecca.
\nSo somebody came and they said, <\/p>\n
349
\n00:20:58,200 –> 00:21:01,200
\nthat’s what he saw said.
\nSo she sent and called Jacob or <\/p>\n
350
\n00:21:01,200 –> 00:21:02,900
\nyounger said and said to him,
\nsurely your brother. <\/p>\n
351
\n00:21:02,900 –> 00:21:05,800
\nHe saw Comforts himself
\nconcerning you by intending to <\/p>\n
352
\n00:21:05,800 –> 00:21:08,700
\nkill you while there was nothing
\nrighteous about that. <\/p>\n
353
\n00:21:09,000 –> 00:21:12,500
\nThat was just all about jealousy
\nand the absence of faith and <\/p>\n
354
\n00:21:12,500 –> 00:21:16,700
\nEsau and the trickery of the
\ndeception and the goat skin on <\/p>\n
355
\n00:21:16,700 –> 00:21:20,400
\nhis arm.
\nAnd he saw selling his His <\/p>\n
356
\n00:21:20,400 –> 00:21:23,700
\ninheritance is birthright, which
\nwas embodied in the promises of <\/p>\n
357
\n00:21:23,700 –> 00:21:27,500
\nGod for a bowl of soup and, you
\nknow, all that there’s no <\/p>\n
358
\n00:21:27,500 –> 00:21:29,300
\nrighteousness in Esau’s
\nVengeance. <\/p>\n
359
\n00:21:29,300 –> 00:21:33,600
\nSo, how do you, how do you take
\nthis Paradox that she would use <\/p>\n
360
\n00:21:33,600 –> 00:21:37,500
\nthe word comfort in connection
\nwith his Vengeance and make it <\/p>\n
361
\n00:21:37,500 –> 00:21:39,500
\nand turn it into a scriptural
\nprinciple? <\/p>\n
362
\n00:21:39,500 –> 00:21:42,200
\nI would you do that?
\nWell, here’s how you do it. <\/p>\n
363
\n00:21:43,000 –> 00:21:45,500
\nLook at how in righteousness
\nJustice actually provides <\/p>\n
364
\n00:21:45,500 –> 00:21:47,300
\nComfort.
\nBecause what Esau was looking <\/p>\n
365
\n00:21:47,300 –> 00:21:50,200
\nfor with Justice, however,
\nperverse in his ark? <\/p>\n
366
\n00:21:50,600 –> 00:21:53,900
\nIt’s still Justice.
\nWhen he said, when Jesus says <\/p>\n
367
\n00:21:53,900 –> 00:21:56,900
\nthis G, this is speaking of
\nJesus in Isaiah and he quoted <\/p>\n
368
\n00:21:56,900 –> 00:22:00,600
\nthis of himself, the spirit of
\nthe Lord, God is upon me because<\/p>\n
369
\n00:22:00,600 –> 00:22:02,900
\nthe Lord has anointed me to
\npreach Good Tidings unto the <\/p>\n
370
\n00:22:02,900 –> 00:22:05,300
\nmeek.
\nSo there’s good news, that’s <\/p>\n
371
\n00:22:05,300 –> 00:22:07,800
\nwhat we’ve been talking about.
\nThe Glad Tidings of the Kingdom <\/p>\n
372
\n00:22:08,500 –> 00:22:11,500
\nto people who are Meek enough to
\nlisten to it and understand in <\/p>\n
373
\n00:22:11,500 –> 00:22:14,000
\nthe honesty of their hearts that
\nthis is for them. <\/p>\n
374
\n00:22:14,400 –> 00:22:16,500
\nHe has sent me to bind up the
\nBrokenhearted. <\/p>\n
375
\n00:22:16,500 –> 00:22:19,500
\nSo, there’s the answer to all
\nthe suffering in the world, why <\/p>\n
376
\n00:22:19,500 –> 00:22:23,200
\nhe is the God of All Comfort,
\nbecause Jesus has been sent to <\/p>\n
377
\n00:22:23,200 –> 00:22:28,800
\nbind up the Brokenhearted, And
\nto proclaim the acceptable year <\/p>\n
378
\n00:22:28,800 –> 00:22:30,900
\nof the Lord.
\nAnd look, what makes that year <\/p>\n
379
\n00:22:30,900 –> 00:22:34,500
\nacceptable.
\nWhat he says next and the day of<\/p>\n
380
\n00:22:34,500 –> 00:22:38,400
\nVengeance of our God.
\nHe doesn’t doesn’t stop there. <\/p>\n
381
\n00:22:38,400 –> 00:22:41,200
\nThere’s the acceptable year of
\nour Lord and he made a reference<\/p>\n
382
\n00:22:41,200 –> 00:22:45,300
\nto himself with that.
\nI’d side of the verse in <\/p>\n
383
\n00:22:45,300 –> 00:22:48,000
\nNazareth and then they thought
\nof throw him over the cliff for <\/p>\n
384
\n00:22:48,000 –> 00:22:52,800
\nsaying that and then he comes
\nalong and he stopped and Isaiah,<\/p>\n
385
\n00:22:52,800 –> 00:22:56,800
\nthe completion of that thought
\nis the day of Vengeance of our <\/p>\n
386
\n00:22:57,000 –> 00:23:02,700
\nGod to comfort all who mourn.
\nIn other words, there’s going to<\/p>\n
387
\n00:23:02,708 –> 00:23:05,900
\nbe a day of recompense.
\nThere’s going to be a Day of <\/p>\n
388
\n00:23:05,900 –> 00:23:10,300
\nReckoning of where the justice
\nof God comes into this world, <\/p>\n
389
\n00:23:10,300 –> 00:23:14,600
\nthrough the judgments of Jesus
\nand takes care of all the <\/p>\n
390
\n00:23:14,600 –> 00:23:17,100
\noppressors, and all those people
\nhave caused the trouble in this <\/p>\n
391
\n00:23:17,100 –> 00:23:21,800
\nworld and wipes them out.
\nAnd that, that will be the <\/p>\n
392
\n00:23:21,800 –> 00:23:25,500
\nremedy of this world, and it
\nwill Comfort this world in the <\/p>\n
393
\n00:23:25,500 –> 00:23:28,300
\nsame way that people who watch.
\nAn execution of some horrible <\/p>\n
394
\n00:23:28,300 –> 00:23:31,500
\nperson that took the innocent
\nmember of their family out of <\/p>\n
395
\n00:23:31,500 –> 00:23:35,700
\ntheir lives when they sit in
\nthat execution there. <\/p>\n
396
\n00:23:35,700 –> 00:23:40,000
\nSome kind of justice that they
\nget from realizing that justice <\/p>\n
397
\n00:23:40,000 –> 00:23:44,700
\nhas been found and met with this
\nperson and they are comforted by<\/p>\n
398
\n00:23:44,700 –> 00:23:47,400
\nit’s an execution that Comforts
\nthem because they know this <\/p>\n
399
\n00:23:47,400 –> 00:23:49,900
\nperson will never harm anyone
\nelse. <\/p>\n
400
\n00:23:49,900 –> 00:23:53,000
\nAgain, the same thing will be
\ntrue of the oppressors of this <\/p>\n
401
\n00:23:53,000 –> 00:23:54,900
\nworld.
\nThe people who make the wars, <\/p>\n
402
\n00:23:54,900 –> 00:23:59,300
\nthe people who caused all the
\nHorrible things to happen in the<\/p>\n
403
\n00:23:59,300 –> 00:24:02,300
\nviciousness of their violence,
\nin the noise of their violence, <\/p>\n
404
\n00:24:02,800 –> 00:24:05,300
\nit will be a great comfort.
\nAll the people have suffered at <\/p>\n
405
\n00:24:05,300 –> 00:24:08,500
\nthe hands of these, evil men to
\nknow that they have been dealt <\/p>\n
406
\n00:24:08,500 –> 00:24:11,000
\nwith.
\nBy God, that Justice will have <\/p>\n
407
\n00:24:11,000 –> 00:24:15,000
\nbeen served in that time, that’s
\nthe resolution of Vengeance and <\/p>\n
408
\n00:24:15,000 –> 00:24:18,300
\ncomfort.
\nBut what happens when Comfort is<\/p>\n
409
\n00:24:18,300 –> 00:24:20,700
\nneeded?
\nAnd it’s the last thing that is <\/p>\n
410
\n00:24:20,700 –> 00:24:23,200
\nfound you just, it’s just
\ndoesn’t seem to be there where <\/p>\n
411
\n00:24:23,500 –> 00:24:26,700
\neven hope doesn’t address the
\nsorrow. <\/p>\n
412
\n00:24:26,900 –> 00:24:29,900
\nThat is so deep.
\nIn the Affliction, when sorrow <\/p>\n
413
\n00:24:29,900 –> 00:24:33,300
\noverwhelms comfort.
\nGod understands. <\/p>\n
414
\n00:24:33,300 –> 00:24:36,600
\nBut when you feel this way, his
\nunderstanding doesn’t even help.<\/p>\n
415
\n00:24:37,800 –> 00:24:39,800
\nKnowing that he understands
\ndoesn’t help. <\/p>\n
416
\n00:24:39,800 –> 00:24:43,700
\nI mean, it should help it kind
\nof applies to the intellect and <\/p>\n
417
\n00:24:43,700 –> 00:24:46,100
\nlater on maybe it helps but not
\nme media. <\/p>\n
418
\n00:24:46,100 –> 00:24:49,300
\nSince this comes through, in the
\nwords of Jeremiah, when he said,<\/p>\n
419
\n00:24:49,300 –> 00:24:51,600
\nwhen I would comfort myself
\nagainst sorrow, my heart is <\/p>\n
420
\n00:24:51,600 –> 00:24:55,000
\nfaint within me.
\nIt also comes through in the <\/p>\n
421
\n00:24:55,000 –> 00:24:58,800
\nPsalms where, David says, I cry
\naloud to God and he, he will <\/p>\n
422
\n00:24:58,800 –> 00:25:02,000
\nhear me.
\nSo, David knew that God heard <\/p>\n
423
\n00:25:02,000 –> 00:25:06,000
\nhis prayer, but if he hears the
\nprayer, where’s the comfort is <\/p>\n
424
\n00:25:06,000 –> 00:25:07,200
\nthis?
\nThe idea here? <\/p>\n
425
\n00:25:07,700 –> 00:25:10,200
\nBecause he says I sought the
\nLord in my day of trouble and I <\/p>\n
426
\n00:25:10,200 –> 00:25:16,900
\nrefuse to be comforted.
\nSometimes Comfort is only found <\/p>\n
427
\n00:25:16,900 –> 00:25:21,400
\nin hope when there is nothing
\nleft to bring Comfort into your <\/p>\n
428
\n00:25:21,400 –> 00:25:24,300
\nheart.
\nWhen your heart is broken. <\/p>\n
429
\n00:25:26,000 –> 00:25:29,300
\nHope is the only thing that can
\nenter in as comfort. <\/p>\n
430
\n00:25:29,500 –> 00:25:32,400
\nAnd the issue the issue that
\npeople have with hope is it <\/p>\n
431
\n00:25:32,400 –> 00:25:36,900
\ndoesn’t take the misery away but
\nwhat hope does do as we’ve said,<\/p>\n
432
\n00:25:37,600 –> 00:25:42,400
\nrepeatedly in this whole series,
\nis it offers strength to endure <\/p>\n
433
\n00:25:43,100 –> 00:25:46,900
\nthrough the Affliction and that
\nthen converts into a comfort? <\/p>\n
434
\n00:25:46,900 –> 00:25:49,600
\nThat’s not the same kind of
\ncomfort as natural comfort. <\/p>\n
435
\n00:25:51,900 –> 00:25:54,900
\nAnd then there’s if God is
\nsilent, Jesus said, ask and you <\/p>\n
436
\n00:25:54,900 –> 00:25:59,500
\nwill receive seems like a
\npromise that applies to all <\/p>\n
437
\n00:25:59,500 –> 00:26:03,200
\nprayer but the answer turns out
\nto be something entirely <\/p>\n
438
\n00:26:03,200 –> 00:26:06,200
\ndifferent, you pray for
\nprotection and all you get is a <\/p>\n
439
\n00:26:06,200 –> 00:26:10,300
\nfatal accident.
\nSo the principle is this, that <\/p>\n
440
\n00:26:10,800 –> 00:26:15,000
\nGod hears prayer.
\nI’ma show you why I say this, <\/p>\n
441
\n00:26:15,400 –> 00:26:17,400
\nbut he’s not the servant of your
\nprayer. <\/p>\n
442
\n00:26:19,700 –> 00:26:23,200
\nGod is a mighty God.
\nHe stands as a Supreme Being of <\/p>\n
443
\n00:26:23,200 –> 00:26:27,500
\nthis universe and he doesn’t,
\nhe’s not there to serve our <\/p>\n
444
\n00:26:27,500 –> 00:26:29,100
\nprayers.
\nThat is not his purpose. <\/p>\n
445
\n00:26:29,100 –> 00:26:32,100
\nIt’s not the purpose of prayer.
\nHe’s not the servant about <\/p>\n
446
\n00:26:32,100 –> 00:26:37,000
\nprayers, even Jesus.
\nThe son of God, this guileless <\/p>\n
447
\n00:26:37,000 –> 00:26:42,100
\nsoul is perfect man.
\nReceive different answers from <\/p>\n
448
\n00:26:42,100 –> 00:26:44,900
\nhis prayers.
\nThis is the account of that. <\/p>\n
449
\n00:26:46,100 –> 00:26:48,900
\nAnd he went a little further and
\nfell on his face and prayed. <\/p>\n
450
\n00:26:50,300 –> 00:26:53,700
\nSaying, O my father.
\nIf it is possible, let this cup <\/p>\n
451
\n00:26:53,700 –> 00:26:58,000
\npass from me.
\nNevertheless not as I will but <\/p>\n
452
\n00:26:58,000 –> 00:27:01,000
\nas thou Wilt and he went on to
\nhis crucifixion. <\/p>\n
453
\n00:27:01,000 –> 00:27:04,200
\nHe went on to the horrible
\ntorture of being nailed to a <\/p>\n
454
\n00:27:04,200 –> 00:27:08,500
\ncross first being beaten to a
\npulp, all the energy drained <\/p>\n
455
\n00:27:08,500 –> 00:27:11,000
\nfrom him carrying across across
\nacross town. <\/p>\n
456
\n00:27:11,000 –> 00:27:15,600
\nFalling under his weight.
\nHaving Cyrene Simon of Cyrene <\/p>\n
457
\n00:27:15,600 –> 00:27:19,300
\npick it up for him, taken to the
\nplace where he laid himself down<\/p>\n
458
\n00:27:19,300 –> 00:27:22,300
\nupon that cross.
\nThey went drove nails through <\/p>\n
459
\n00:27:22,300 –> 00:27:25,800
\nhis hands and through his feet
\nand you understood what he was <\/p>\n
460
\n00:27:26,000 –> 00:27:29,700
\nDoing he prayed that it wouldn’t
\nhappen but now the very thing, <\/p>\n
461
\n00:27:29,700 –> 00:27:32,100
\nhe prayed against his happening
\nto him. <\/p>\n
462
\n00:27:33,000 –> 00:27:37,100
\nDoes does this not show that God
\nis not the servant of prayer? <\/p>\n
463
\n00:27:37,100 –> 00:27:42,400
\nGod serves his purpose and his
\npurpose, involves all the things<\/p>\n
464
\n00:27:42,500 –> 00:27:45,300
\nthat we may not understand that.
\nWe understand in the first place<\/p>\n
465
\n00:27:45,300 –> 00:27:48,900
\nthat we may not understand in
\nour relationship with God. <\/p>\n
466
\n00:27:50,500 –> 00:27:52,100
\nIn other words, our prayers
\ndon’t control. <\/p>\n
467
\n00:27:52,100 –> 00:27:56,800
\nGod God controls our prayers and
\ntheir answers. <\/p>\n
468
\n00:27:56,900 –> 00:28:01,100
\nHe’s in total control as he was
\nwith the Lord Jesus Christ. <\/p>\n
469
\n00:28:01,900 –> 00:28:04,300
\nAnd then there’s a question of
\nthe Angel of the Lord this <\/p>\n
470
\n00:28:04,400 –> 00:28:07,200
\ncamping around us and should be
\ndelivering us. <\/p>\n
471
\n00:28:07,200 –> 00:28:12,300
\nThat’s the idea we asked to be
\ndelivered from Evil, even in the<\/p>\n
472
\n00:28:12,300 –> 00:28:14,700
\nLord’s Prayer.
\nJesus said, pray like this lead <\/p>\n
473
\n00:28:14,700 –> 00:28:18,900
\nme not into temptation and
\nDeliver Us from Evil, right? <\/p>\n
474
\n00:28:18,900 –> 00:28:22,300
\nSo we think that That for a
\ncorrelates to the promise that <\/p>\n
475
\n00:28:22,300 –> 00:28:24,700
\nthe angel of the Lord encamps
\naround them that fear him. <\/p>\n
476
\n00:28:25,500 –> 00:28:28,200
\nSo that’s the Paradox is what
\nhappens when that didn’t appear <\/p>\n
477
\n00:28:28,200 –> 00:28:31,300
\nto be the case.
\nWell, let’s look at this a <\/p>\n
478
\n00:28:31,300 –> 00:28:34,000
\nlittle bit more closely.
\nThere’s the verse the angel of <\/p>\n
479
\n00:28:34,000 –> 00:28:36,600
\nthe Lord encamps around all who
\nfear Him and delivers them. <\/p>\n
480
\n00:28:37,700 –> 00:28:39,200
\nThat seems to be straightforward
\nenough. <\/p>\n
481
\n00:28:39,200 –> 00:28:41,700
\nDoes the bible mean what it says
\nor is God, you know, kind of <\/p>\n
482
\n00:28:41,708 –> 00:28:44,600
\nlike playing with us with words,
\nthen really keep his world. <\/p>\n
483
\n00:28:45,500 –> 00:28:47,400
\nWell, if it depends on the
\nmeaning of the word, <\/p>\n
484
\n00:28:47,400 –> 00:28:49,400
\nDeliverance, the answer to this
\nParadox. <\/p>\n
485
\n00:28:50,100 –> 00:28:52,800
\nIf we think delivers means it
\nprevents it from happening, <\/p>\n
486
\n00:28:52,800 –> 00:28:55,700
\nthat’s one outcome.
\nBut if Deliverance actually <\/p>\n
487
\n00:28:55,700 –> 00:29:00,600
\nmeans to arm us to fortify us
\nour hearts when they are broken <\/p>\n
488
\n00:29:00,600 –> 00:29:04,800
\nto equip us with what is
\nnecessary to withstand the <\/p>\n
489
\n00:29:04,800 –> 00:29:08,500
\nweight of this burden to
\nstrengthen Us in the He’s of a <\/p>\n
490
\n00:29:08,500 –> 00:29:14,500
\nhorrible weakness and to prepare
\nus even in advance, and for the <\/p>\n
491
\n00:29:14,500 –> 00:29:20,000
\noutcome of a tragedy, then, the
\nDeliverance that is offered by <\/p>\n
492
\n00:29:20,000 –> 00:29:21,800
\nthe angel of the Lord is
\ndifferent. <\/p>\n
493
\n00:29:21,800 –> 00:29:24,100
\nLet’s see if we can find an
\nexample of this. <\/p>\n
494
\n00:29:25,000 –> 00:29:29,100
\nHow Angels, provide Deliverance
\nbest place to look is in the <\/p>\n
495
\n00:29:29,108 –> 00:29:32,600
\nLife of Christ.
\nHere’s a promise that was made <\/p>\n
496
\n00:29:32,900 –> 00:29:35,200
\nEames.
\nEven seems to be more clear than<\/p>\n
497
\n00:29:35,200 –> 00:29:37,400
\nthe one we were just looking at
\nabout. <\/p>\n
498
\n00:29:37,500 –> 00:29:41,500
\nGeneral Angelic protection.
\nThis is what was said of Christ <\/p>\n
499
\n00:29:41,500 –> 00:29:43,000
\nand it came up in the
\nwilderness. <\/p>\n
500
\n00:29:43,300 –> 00:29:45,900
\nA thousand may fall at your side
\nand ten thousand at your right <\/p>\n
501
\n00:29:45,900 –> 00:29:47,900
\nhand, but it shall not come near
\nyou really. <\/p>\n
502
\n00:29:47,900 –> 00:29:49,800
\nIs that what happened?
\nThe crucifixion is that the, <\/p>\n
503
\n00:29:49,800 –> 00:29:51,800
\nwhat was that?
\nHis exchange with the Pharisees?<\/p>\n
504
\n00:29:52,700 –> 00:29:55,200
\nNo evil shall befall you.
\nWould you say that of reading <\/p>\n
505
\n00:29:55,200 –> 00:29:57,500
\nthe account of Jesus?
\nWas it not even with did the <\/p>\n
506
\n00:29:57,500 –> 00:29:59,100
\ngospel not break?
\nHis heart? <\/p>\n
507
\n00:29:59,300 –> 00:30:01,000
\nDid he not die of a broken
\nheart? <\/p>\n
508
\n00:30:01,100 –> 00:30:03,100
\nHow could he say that?
\nNo evil would befall him. <\/p>\n
509
\n00:30:03,100 –> 00:30:05,700
\nJesus knew this was true.
\nHow do you make it true? <\/p>\n
510
\n00:30:05,700 –> 00:30:07,400
\nHow do you resolve the ferret?
\nThe paradox. <\/p>\n
511
\n00:30:08,500 –> 00:30:10,200
\nNor shall any plague come near
\nyou. <\/p>\n
512
\n00:30:10,200 –> 00:30:12,100
\nYour dwelling.
\nFor he shall give his angels <\/p>\n
513
\n00:30:12,100 –> 00:30:15,900
\ncharge over you to keep you in.
\nAll your ways in their hands. <\/p>\n
514
\n00:30:15,900 –> 00:30:19,500
\nThey shall bear you up.
\nLest you dash your foot against <\/p>\n
515
\n00:30:19,500 –> 00:30:21,200
\na stone when he was Into the
\nWilderness. <\/p>\n
516
\n00:30:21,600 –> 00:30:25,700
\nThis very verse came up as a
\nTemptation because it didn’t <\/p>\n
517
\n00:30:25,700 –> 00:30:28,600
\nseem to be occurring quite like
\nthis. <\/p>\n
518
\n00:30:28,800 –> 00:30:32,000
\nThis sounds like full protection
\nand yet, where’s the full <\/p>\n
519
\n00:30:32,000 –> 00:30:34,000
\nprotection?
\nIf you have nothing but <\/p>\n
520
\n00:30:34,000 –> 00:30:37,300
\naccusation false accusation men
\nwho are seeking to destroy you <\/p>\n
521
\n00:30:37,300 –> 00:30:41,400
\npeople that First and you, and
\nin the end, your persecution and<\/p>\n
522
\n00:30:41,500 –> 00:30:43,700
\ncrucifixion, you die like a
\ncommon criminal. <\/p>\n
523
\n00:30:44,400 –> 00:30:48,900
\nSo he knew that, and this was a
\nlooming, temptation to Jesus. <\/p>\n
524
\n00:30:49,300 –> 00:30:52,000
\nSo, how where is the Angel of
\nthe Lord and all this, that <\/p>\n
525
\n00:30:52,000 –> 00:30:54,400
\nwould encamp around him and
\ndeliver him? <\/p>\n
526
\n00:30:54,800 –> 00:31:00,400
\nHow was Jesus delivered?
\nWell, He was visited by Angels, <\/p>\n
527
\n00:31:00,500 –> 00:31:02,800
\nboth in the wilderness and in
\nthe garden. <\/p>\n
528
\n00:31:02,800 –> 00:31:07,100
\nThis is how they delivered him
\nin the wilderness and the devil <\/p>\n
529
\n00:31:07,100 –> 00:31:09,100
\nleft.
\nHim Temptations were gone. <\/p>\n
530
\n00:31:10,100 –> 00:31:14,400
\nAnd immediately Angels Came.
\nAnd began to serve him. <\/p>\n
531
\n00:31:15,600 –> 00:31:19,900
\nThey made food for him.
\nI think they hugged him, they <\/p>\n
532
\n00:31:19,900 –> 00:31:22,400
\nsat down, they said, sit down.
\nLet’s talk about all this. <\/p>\n
533
\n00:31:22,400 –> 00:31:27,600
\nNow they served him, they helped
\nhim understand the meaning of <\/p>\n
534
\n00:31:27,600 –> 00:31:29,700
\nhis Temptations.
\nThey took them a little bit <\/p>\n
535
\n00:31:29,700 –> 00:31:34,900
\nfurther, and as a result of that
\nintercourse, I think his <\/p>\n
536
\n00:31:34,900 –> 00:31:38,100
\nTemptations departed from them,
\nthey didn’t come back until the <\/p>\n
537
\n00:31:38,100 –> 00:31:41,200
\ngarden and in the garden he’s
\ngot the worst temptation of all,<\/p>\n
538
\n00:31:41,300 –> 00:31:43,800
\nhe doesn’t want this to happen.
\nHe knows exactly what’s going to<\/p>\n
539
\n00:31:43,800 –> 00:31:45,200
\nhappen.
\nHe had read Psalm, 22, and <\/p>\n
540
\n00:31:45,200 –> 00:31:48,500
\nIsaiah 53.
\nHe knew that he was going to be <\/p>\n
541
\n00:31:48,500 –> 00:31:52,500
\nreduced to the basest of
\nconditions in the hatred of <\/p>\n
542
\n00:31:52,500 –> 00:31:55,200
\nevil.
\nMen Bulls of Bashan, dogs <\/p>\n
543
\n00:31:55,200 –> 00:32:00,100
\nsurrounding him spitting at him,
\ncursing and mocking him killing <\/p>\n
544
\n00:32:00,400 –> 00:32:02,900
\nand glad to do it.
\nHappy to destroy this. <\/p>\n
545
\n00:32:02,900 –> 00:32:10,800
\nInnocent love. young man, but
\nthey were there, these angels of<\/p>\n
546
\n00:32:10,800 –> 00:32:15,600
\nthe Lord and they delivered
\nsaying father, if thou be <\/p>\n
547
\n00:32:15,600 –> 00:32:21,800
\nwilling remove this cup from me,
\nNevertheless not my will but <\/p>\n
548
\n00:32:21,800 –> 00:32:24,500
\nthine be done.
\nThere appeared, an angel unto <\/p>\n
549
\n00:32:24,500 –> 00:32:27,200
\nhim from Heaven.
\nStrengthening him angel came <\/p>\n
550
\n00:32:27,200 –> 00:32:30,200
\ndown, probably put his arm
\naround, may have been the same <\/p>\n
551
\n00:32:30,200 –> 00:32:31,700
\none.
\nHe would have recognized him for<\/p>\n
552
\n00:32:31,700 –> 00:32:35,200
\nthat time in the desert.
\nAnd he said something to him <\/p>\n
553
\n00:32:35,200 –> 00:32:39,500
\nthat strengthened him, maybe
\njust sat with him and maybe he <\/p>\n
554
\n00:32:39,500 –> 00:32:42,800
\ntook his hand in his.
\nMaybe he hugged him. <\/p>\n
555
\n00:32:44,300 –> 00:32:47,500
\nWe said it’s almost done but
\nthink of what you will do, if <\/p>\n
556
\n00:32:47,500 –> 00:32:50,800
\nyou if you go through with this
\nthink of it, you know the <\/p>\n
557
\n00:32:50,800 –> 00:32:53,300
\nprophecies.
\nYou know what, God’s purpose is <\/p>\n
558
\n00:32:53,300 –> 00:32:56,400
\nin this.
\nLet’s have the strength to go <\/p>\n
559
\n00:32:56,400 –> 00:32:59,700
\nthrough there.
\nHe was comforted because the <\/p>\n
560
\n00:32:59,700 –> 00:33:03,100
\nangel of the Lord was in camping
\nright around him and deliver <\/p>\n
561
\n00:33:03,100 –> 00:33:05,700
\nhim, but he didn’t take the
\ncrucifixion away. <\/p>\n
562
\n00:33:06,000 –> 00:33:09,900
\nThat’s the big point for you.
\nAnd your Affliction, he will be,<\/p>\n
563
\n00:33:09,900 –> 00:33:11,900
\ncomforted, the angel of the Lord
\nwill be there. <\/p>\n
564
\n00:33:12,600 –> 00:33:15,600
\nSo who is this Angel?
\nWe would say, well, that’s fine <\/p>\n
565
\n00:33:15,600 –> 00:33:18,100
\nfor Jesus.
\nWe know an angel visit him, he’s<\/p>\n
566
\n00:33:18,100 –> 00:33:21,200
\nthe son of God, there’s these
\nand Angelic visitations their <\/p>\n
567
\n00:33:21,200 –> 00:33:25,000
\nliteral but don’t recall ever
\nseeing an angel of the Lord come<\/p>\n
568
\n00:33:25,000 –> 00:33:28,700
\nand visit me when I need ya to
\nhear, have a conversation with <\/p>\n
569
\n00:33:29,100 –> 00:33:31,800
\nan Angel.
\nIt doesn’t happen that way, with<\/p>\n
570
\n00:33:31,800 –> 00:33:34,800
\nus knows.
\nIt doesn’t happen with us. <\/p>\n
571
\n00:33:36,400 –> 00:33:39,900
\nWell, the several things we can
\nthink about to resolve this <\/p>\n
572
\n00:33:39,900 –> 00:33:41,600
\nparticular Paradise.
\nI think this is the biggest <\/p>\n
573
\n00:33:41,600 –> 00:33:45,200
\nParadox of all Is that high
\npriest? <\/p>\n
574
\n00:33:45,500 –> 00:33:48,800
\nThere’s an angel in heaven.
\nWho said, I will be with. <\/p>\n
575
\n00:33:48,800 –> 00:33:51,800
\nYou always, I’ll be with you
\nright to the end. <\/p>\n
576
\n00:33:52,600 –> 00:33:55,500
\nI’ll be near to you.
\nI’ll be so near that. <\/p>\n
577
\n00:33:55,500 –> 00:33:59,300
\nWhen you say a prayer, I will be
\nthe intermediary between you and<\/p>\n
578
\n00:33:59,300 –> 00:34:01,600
\nGod, and your prayers will
\nalways be her. <\/p>\n
579
\n00:34:02,100 –> 00:34:04,600
\nI know how you feel.
\nI was touched with the feeling <\/p>\n
580
\n00:34:04,600 –> 00:34:08,100
\nof your infirmities.
\nI’m there for you. <\/p>\n
581
\n00:34:09,699 –> 00:34:12,400
\nSurely, they are my people.
\nIsaiah says speaking. <\/p>\n
582
\n00:34:14,400 –> 00:34:17,300
\nOn the surface about Israel and
\nthe angel that led them through <\/p>\n
583
\n00:34:17,300 –> 00:34:19,400
\nthe Wilderness.
\nBut prophetically because of its<\/p>\n
584
\n00:34:19,400 –> 00:34:23,800
\ncontext and Isaiah 63 of Jesus
\nand his high priesthood. <\/p>\n
585
\n00:34:24,400 –> 00:34:28,400
\nThey are my people children who
\nwill not lie in all their <\/p>\n
586
\n00:34:28,400 –> 00:34:30,900
\nAffliction, he was afflicted in
\nthe angel of his presence. <\/p>\n
587
\n00:34:30,900 –> 00:34:33,400
\nSave them.
\nSo let’s translate this into a <\/p>\n
588
\n00:34:33,400 –> 00:34:38,400
\nprophecy.
\nWho are his people, this high <\/p>\n
589
\n00:34:38,400 –> 00:34:41,300
\npriest, this would people like
\nyou and me who loved him for <\/p>\n
590
\n00:34:41,300 –> 00:34:43,199
\nwhat?
\nHe know he did for us who <\/p>\n
591
\n00:34:43,199 –> 00:34:45,400
\ndedicate Our Lives to make a
\npublic confession. <\/p>\n
592
\n00:34:45,400 –> 00:34:48,500
\nWe get baptized show everybody.
\nWe this is the turning point of <\/p>\n
593
\n00:34:48,500 –> 00:34:50,400
\nour lives were turning it over
\nto Jesus. <\/p>\n
594
\n00:34:51,500 –> 00:34:54,600
\nThose are his people, these are
\nchildren who will not lie and <\/p>\n
595
\n00:34:54,600 –> 00:34:56,800
\nthey won’t lie because they love
\nthe truth. <\/p>\n
596
\n00:34:57,100 –> 00:34:59,000
\nIf it’s true, they’re all for
\nit. <\/p>\n
597
\n00:34:59,000 –> 00:35:06,100
\nIf it’s aligning won’t have it.
\nThe children are and the way is <\/p>\n
598
\n00:35:06,200 –> 00:35:11,300
\nis strewn with with obstacles
\nwith afflictions in all their <\/p>\n
599
\n00:35:11,300 –> 00:35:17,000
\naffliction.
\nHe was afflicted, high priest. <\/p>\n
600
\n00:35:18,500 –> 00:35:20,600
\nAnd the angel of his presence
\nsaved them. <\/p>\n
601
\n00:35:20,700 –> 00:35:23,200
\nWho’s the angel of his presence
\nfor us? <\/p>\n
602
\n00:35:23,200 –> 00:35:27,300
\nNow, if it’s not the comforter,
\nit’s a high priest in heaven. <\/p>\n
603
\n00:35:27,300 –> 00:35:30,100
\nWho is there?
\nImmediately there to provide <\/p>\n
604
\n00:35:30,100 –> 00:35:33,100
\nwhat is needed in the form of
\nstrength as an angel that in <\/p>\n
605
\n00:35:33,100 –> 00:35:38,500
\ncamps around us and delivers us
\nwith hope in his love and in his<\/p>\n
606
\n00:35:38,500 –> 00:35:40,700
\npity?
\nHe redeemed them. <\/p>\n
607
\n00:35:41,000 –> 00:35:43,800
\nSpeaking of things that haven’t
\nhappened yet as though they were<\/p>\n
608
\n00:35:44,300 –> 00:35:47,900
\nthis is you and me in his love
\nand in his pity. <\/p>\n
609
\n00:35:48,600 –> 00:35:53,600
\nHe redeemed them and he bore
\nthem and he carried them all the<\/p>\n
610
\n00:35:53,600 –> 00:35:56,700
\ndays of old and he delivered
\nthem into the kingdom. <\/p>\n
611
\n00:35:57,200 –> 00:36:01,700
\nJust like a child is born from
\nthe womb, we have the hope of <\/p>\n
612
\n00:36:01,700 –> 00:36:05,100
\nbeing born in the spirit of God
\ninto the kingdom. <\/p>\n
613
\n00:36:06,500 –> 00:36:08,700
\nThere’s another aspect, Angelic,
\nencampment. <\/p>\n
614
\n00:36:08,700 –> 00:36:11,600
\nAnd that is you may not have
\nrealized this, but you might be <\/p>\n
615
\n00:36:11,600 –> 00:36:15,100
\nsomeone’s Angel.
\nYou could be an elder in <\/p>\n
616
\n00:36:15,100 –> 00:36:18,200
\nEcclesia, you could be appear,
\nyou could be a young person. <\/p>\n
617
\n00:36:18,900 –> 00:36:21,700
\nYou could find somebody whose
\nheart is totally broken. <\/p>\n
618
\n00:36:22,200 –> 00:36:24,500
\nYou could find somebody who
\nreally needs God but they don’t <\/p>\n
619
\n00:36:24,500 –> 00:36:27,000
\nknow how to find him.
\nThey didn’t know, they know much<\/p>\n
620
\n00:36:27,000 –> 00:36:29,800
\nabout the Bible and you are
\ntheir messenger. <\/p>\n
621
\n00:36:30,600 –> 00:36:34,000
\nBut in Revelation it is very
\nclear that the Elders of the <\/p>\n
622
\n00:36:34,008 –> 00:36:37,600
\nchurches were referred to as
\nAngels, because they were <\/p>\n
623
\n00:36:37,600 –> 00:36:42,600
\nMessengers who were carrying the
\nmessage of God to the fold. <\/p>\n
624
\n00:36:42,600 –> 00:36:48,700
\nJesus fold in his household.
\nTheir messengers of Hope and <\/p>\n
625
\n00:36:48,700 –> 00:36:50,200
\nstrength.
\nAnd that’s what makes them <\/p>\n
626
\n00:36:50,200 –> 00:36:54,100
\nAngels think about it.
\nI know what happened with Amy <\/p>\n
627
\n00:36:54,700 –> 00:36:58,100
\nand with Dawn and with the other
\nsister, who was abused in our <\/p>\n
628
\n00:36:58,100 –> 00:37:01,600
\nEcclesia, there were Angels
\nthere they take, they had no <\/p>\n
629
\n00:37:01,600 –> 00:37:04,400
\nwings, they weren’t from Heaven,
\nthey didn’t appear and <\/p>\n
630
\n00:37:04,400 –> 00:37:08,700
\ndisappear.
\nThey came to her and Josh, and <\/p>\n
631
\n00:37:08,700 –> 00:37:13,700
\nthey put their arms around her.
\nThey they, they spoke to her. <\/p>\n
632
\n00:37:15,500 –> 00:37:18,900
\nWith words of assurance with
\nwords of hope, they understood <\/p>\n
633
\n00:37:18,900 –> 00:37:21,500
\nsometimes, they just sat and
\ncried with her. <\/p>\n
634
\n00:37:22,600 –> 00:37:28,300
\nWhatever it was, it was
\nmessengers of Hope coming to <\/p>\n
635
\n00:37:28,300 –> 00:37:31,600
\nthese people in the form of
\npeople who understood the <\/p>\n
636
\n00:37:31,600 –> 00:37:35,100
\nmessage.
\nSo don’t ever think that you may<\/p>\n
637
\n00:37:35,100 –> 00:37:37,900
\nnot be the angel many have met
\nunder two entertained angels. <\/p>\n
638
\n00:37:37,900 –> 00:37:40,400
\nUnawares.
\nDid you ever think that those <\/p>\n
639
\n00:37:40,400 –> 00:37:42,700
\nangels might not be the kind
\nfrom Heaven? <\/p>\n
640
\n00:37:42,700 –> 00:37:44,200
\nThey might be the kind from
\nEarth. <\/p>\n
641
\n00:37:45,400 –> 00:37:48,100
\nYou’re talking to somebody about
\nthe kingdom there, in the <\/p>\n
642
\n00:37:48,100 –> 00:37:52,200
\ncompany of a messenger who is
\nlike an angel, they’re hearing <\/p>\n
643
\n00:37:52,200 –> 00:37:56,800
\nwords of Salvation, they’re not
\naware of it, they don’t know <\/p>\n
644
\n00:37:56,800 –> 00:38:01,700
\nthat this messenger that is, you
\nare this angel of Truth. <\/p>\n
645
\n00:38:03,200 –> 00:38:06,600
\nThe point is that Angels
\nstrengthen hope but they don’t <\/p>\n
646
\n00:38:06,600 –> 00:38:09,900
\nprevent trials.
\nSo in conclusion, let’s look at <\/p>\n
647
\n00:38:09,900 –> 00:38:14,000
\nthe Restoration in the Kingdom.
\nWe have this absolute Assurance <\/p>\n
648
\n00:38:14,000 –> 00:38:19,500
\nfrom God That we saw in this
\nParadox of Noah, there’s an <\/p>\n
649
\n00:38:19,500 –> 00:38:23,900
\nEverlasting Covenant of life and
\npeace. <\/p>\n
650
\n00:38:24,500 –> 00:38:28,600
\nIf you take everything out of
\nall, all the details, the <\/p>\n
651
\n00:38:28,600 –> 00:38:33,000
\nparticulars that are in volume
\ntoo much to take in at once and <\/p>\n
652
\n00:38:33,000 –> 00:38:36,800
\nsimplify everything that we’ve
\ntalked about down to this idea. <\/p>\n
653
\n00:38:37,800 –> 00:38:40,900
\nWhat do I want in my life?
\nI know it’s not going to be <\/p>\n
654
\n00:38:41,500 –> 00:38:42,700
\nperfect.
\nAll the way through, this is <\/p>\n
655
\n00:38:42,707 –> 00:38:44,700
\ngoing to be trials and
\ntribulations. <\/p>\n
656
\n00:38:44,800 –> 00:38:48,100
\nOne after another Until it’s
\nresolved somehow in the future. <\/p>\n
657
\n00:38:49,200 –> 00:38:55,400
\nDo I want life?
\nAnd peace because Jesus is the <\/p>\n
658
\n00:38:55,400 –> 00:39:00,500
\nPrince of Peace.
\nHe is the author of life for you<\/p>\n
659
\n00:39:00,500 –> 00:39:06,100
\nnow because he’s been given all
\nauthority in Heaven and Earth in<\/p>\n
660
\n00:39:06,100 –> 00:39:09,700
\nhis request, his father for your
\nlife. <\/p>\n
661
\n00:39:11,100 –> 00:39:13,700
\nSo there’s a day of rain and you
\nknow, this is such an <\/p>\n
662
\n00:39:13,700 –> 00:39:15,900
\ninteresting passage, let’s read
\nthis together and just think <\/p>\n
663
\n00:39:15,900 –> 00:39:19,400
\nabout it for a moment in
\nclosing, I saw as it were <\/p>\n
664
\n00:39:20,000 –> 00:39:23,700
\nappearance of fire, this is in
\nEzekiel, where Ezekiel is, <\/p>\n
665
\n00:39:23,700 –> 00:39:28,000
\nlooking at God’s judgments on
\nthe Earth City to city as Christ<\/p>\n
666
\n00:39:28,000 –> 00:39:31,300
\nand the Saints move in.
\nThey are in their miraculous <\/p>\n
667
\n00:39:31,300 –> 00:39:34,400
\npresence across the face of the
\nEarth, judging the nation’s <\/p>\n
668
\n00:39:34,400 –> 00:39:37,400
\neither positively or negatively.
\nHe says, I saw is that worthy <\/p>\n
669
\n00:39:37,400 –> 00:39:39,800
\nappearances environment had
\nbrightness roundabout. <\/p>\n
670
\n00:39:39,900 –> 00:39:43,500
\nSo this is the Of God,
\nmanifested in Jesus and the <\/p>\n
671
\n00:39:43,500 –> 00:39:47,000
\nSaints.
\nAs the appearance of a bow that <\/p>\n
672
\n00:39:47,000 –> 00:39:49,400
\nis in the cloud in the day of
\nrain. <\/p>\n
673
\n00:39:49,900 –> 00:39:52,500
\nSo is the appearance of the
\nbrightness round about. <\/p>\n
674
\n00:39:52,800 –> 00:39:57,500
\nThis was the appearance of the
\nlikeness of the glory of the <\/p>\n
675
\n00:39:57,500 –> 00:39:59,600
\nLord.
\nWe know that that the that Glory<\/p>\n
676
\n00:39:59,600 –> 00:40:01,500
\nwill fill the Earth as the
\nwaters cover the sea. <\/p>\n
677
\n00:40:01,500 –> 00:40:04,400
\nBut have you ever thought about
\nwhat that Glory really is? <\/p>\n
678
\n00:40:05,100 –> 00:40:07,300
\nGlory is a beautiful word but
\nit’s just used. <\/p>\n
679
\n00:40:07,800 –> 00:40:11,600
\nSo, cliche akal these days that
\nit’s I think it’s meaning gets <\/p>\n
680
\n00:40:11,600 –> 00:40:14,100
\nlost.
\nThe Lord of hosts. <\/p>\n
681
\n00:40:14,100 –> 00:40:20,100
\nHe is the king of glory, David
\nsays, in Psalm 24, so The glory <\/p>\n
682
\n00:40:20,100 –> 00:40:23,900
\nare the hosts.
\nIf the whole Plan of Salvation <\/p>\n
683
\n00:40:23,900 –> 00:40:27,100
\ninvolves God manifestation in a
\nhost of people, who in the end <\/p>\n
684
\n00:40:27,100 –> 00:40:30,500
\nwill fill the Earth.
\nThose people are his glory, <\/p>\n
685
\n00:40:30,800 –> 00:40:33,000
\nwhich means the Saints are That
\nGlory. <\/p>\n
686
\n00:40:33,300 –> 00:40:35,700
\nSo let’s read this.
\nAgain in the day of rain, when <\/p>\n
687
\n00:40:35,700 –> 00:40:36,900
\nthe appeared with the
\nappearance. <\/p>\n
688
\n00:40:36,900 –> 00:40:38,800
\nSo was the appearance of
\nbrightness round about. <\/p>\n
689
\n00:40:38,800 –> 00:40:41,800
\nThis is the Light of Christ
\nfilling the Earth with the <\/p>\n
690
\n00:40:41,800 –> 00:40:44,200
\npromises of God through his
\nCovenant. <\/p>\n
691
\n00:40:44,600 –> 00:40:48,300
\nThis was the appearance of the
\nlikeness of the glory. <\/p>\n
692
\n00:40:49,400 –> 00:40:52,900
\nOf the Lord, the likeness is the
\nlikeness of Christ. <\/p>\n
693
\n00:40:52,900 –> 00:40:56,700
\nThe glory of the Lord, are those
\npeople who are in his likeness, <\/p>\n
694
\n00:40:59,000 –> 00:41:06,300
\nAnd the Lord is, I am who I am.
\nI will be manifested in you Who <\/p>\n
695
\n00:41:06,300 –> 00:41:10,500
\nwould walk away from that idea?
\nSo I don’t know what the day of <\/p>\n
696
\n00:41:10,500 –> 00:41:13,600
\nrain is, it may, it may be the
\nday that rains righteousness <\/p>\n
697
\n00:41:13,600 –> 00:41:16,100
\nupon the Earth and causes all
\nthe fruit to grow in the <\/p>\n
698
\n00:41:16,100 –> 00:41:20,800
\nsunshine of Christ’s life or it
\nmay be the rain that puts out <\/p>\n
699
\n00:41:20,800 –> 00:41:24,500
\nthe fire of Christ judgments
\nwhen they go from City to city <\/p>\n
700
\n00:41:24,700 –> 00:41:28,100
\nand burn up the ones that were
\nunrighteous like Malachi said, <\/p>\n
701
\n00:41:28,600 –> 00:41:31,900
\nat any rate, this day of rain
\nwill be like a paradoxically <\/p>\n
702
\n00:41:31,900 –> 00:41:35,700
\nlike a morning without clouds.
\nIt will be such a beautiful <\/p>\n
703
\n00:41:35,700 –> 00:41:39,600
\nsunrise.
\nWe will return to Paradise The <\/p>\n
704
\n00:41:39,600 –> 00:41:43,500
\nEarth will be restored every
\nsource of Affliction, every <\/p>\n
705
\n00:41:43,500 –> 00:41:46,800
\nroute that we can suffer from
\nphysical Affliction, emotional <\/p>\n
706
\n00:41:47,900 –> 00:41:51,100
\nAffliction, mental Affliction.
\nSpiritual Affliction will <\/p>\n
707
\n00:41:51,100 –> 00:41:54,500
\nresolve in the comfort of what
\nis restored, the renewal of life<\/p>\n
708
\n00:41:54,600 –> 00:41:58,200
\nin the Kingdom.
\nThere will be recovery from <\/p>\n
709
\n00:41:58,200 –> 00:42:01,500
\nsickness.
\nThere will be Triva love tragic <\/p>\n
710
\n00:42:01,500 –> 00:42:04,800
\nloss when Dominic rises again
\nand looks into his mother’s <\/p>\n
711
\n00:42:04,800 –> 00:42:07,000
\neyes.
\nThere will be recompensed to the<\/p>\n
712
\n00:42:07,000 –> 00:42:08,800
\nabusers who made people
\nmiserable. <\/p>\n
713
\n00:42:09,200 –> 00:42:11,400
\nI thought they were getting away
\nwith it but there’s a Day of <\/p>\n
714
\n00:42:11,400 –> 00:42:14,600
\nReckoning in front of them.
\nThere will be reconciliation for<\/p>\n
715
\n00:42:14,600 –> 00:42:16,300
\nall the problems that couldn’t
\nbe resolved. <\/p>\n
716
\n00:42:16,300 –> 00:42:19,800
\nIn marriage that couldn’t be
\nresolved in families or Ecclesia<\/p>\n
717
\n00:42:19,800 –> 00:42:23,600
\nis or enter occlusal or
\nfellowships or even on a larger <\/p>\n
718
\n00:42:23,600 –> 00:42:29,500
\nlevel International
\nirreconcilable differences, in <\/p>\n
719
\n00:42:29,500 –> 00:42:32,700
\nthis case of ideologies and
\ncovetousness. <\/p>\n
720
\n00:42:34,100 –> 00:42:37,000
\nAll of that faces, the
\nrestoration of the kingdom. <\/p>\n
721
\n00:42:37,000 –> 00:42:39,300
\nAnd it will be a highly
\norganized Paradise. <\/p>\n
722
\n00:42:40,300 –> 00:42:45,100
\nNot just Gardens, but a temple
\ntemple of such magnificent <\/p>\n
723
\n00:42:45,100 –> 00:42:48,900
\nBeauty in such Grandeur in size.
\nThat is like a city and the <\/p>\n
724
\n00:42:48,900 –> 00:42:53,100
\norganization in that Temple is
\njust so marvelous to consider <\/p>\n
725
\n00:42:53,400 –> 00:42:56,600
\nhighly organized as the Dew of
\nHerman and is the do that <\/p>\n
726
\n00:42:56,600 –> 00:43:00,000
\ndescended upon the mountains of
\nZion for their the Lord <\/p>\n
727
\n00:43:00,000 –> 00:43:05,500
\ncommanded the blessing, even
\nlife forevermore Behold bless <\/p>\n
728
\n00:43:05,500 –> 00:43:08,200
\nthe Lord.
\nHe’s made all these promises to <\/p>\n
729
\n00:43:08,200 –> 00:43:09,200
\nyou.
\nBless him. <\/p>\n
730
\n00:43:10,100 –> 00:43:13,900
\nTake them into your heart and
\nconvert them to a blessing for <\/p>\n
731
\n00:43:13,900 –> 00:43:15,400
\nthe god, that loves you that
\nmuch. <\/p>\n
732
\n00:43:15,500 –> 00:43:18,200
\nAll you Servants of the Lord,
\nwhich by night stand in the <\/p>\n
733
\n00:43:18,200 –> 00:43:21,500
\nhouse of the Lord, lift up your
\nhands in the sanctuary and bless<\/p>\n
734
\n00:43:21,500 –> 00:43:24,200
\nbless the Lord.
\nThe Lord that made Heaven and <\/p>\n
735
\n00:43:24,200 –> 00:43:27,500
\nEarth bless the out of Zion
\npraise, ye the Lord, praise the <\/p>\n
736
\n00:43:27,500 –> 00:43:30,600
\nname of the Lord, praise him
\nbecause that name is your glory.<\/p>\n
737
\n00:43:30,600 –> 00:43:32,700
\nHis glory is in your
\nmanifestation. <\/p>\n
738
\n00:43:33,700 –> 00:43:36,200
\nOh, ye Servants of the Lord.
\nYou stand in the house of the <\/p>\n
739
\n00:43:36,200 –> 00:43:38,900
\nLord in the courts of the House
\nof our God. <\/p>\n
740
\n00:43:40,100 –> 00:43:43,600
\nDid you notice this?
\nDid you see this? <\/p>\n
741
\n00:43:44,700 –> 00:43:46,400
\nWhich by nightstand in the house
\nof the Lord? <\/p>\n
742
\n00:43:46,500 –> 00:43:49,200
\nI don’t know about you, but my
\nunderstanding of people during <\/p>\n
743
\n00:43:49,200 –> 00:43:52,100
\nnighttime is they lay down, they
\nfall asleep. <\/p>\n
744
\n00:43:52,100 –> 00:43:54,900
\nSo something about these people
\nthat doesn’t appear to need to <\/p>\n
745
\n00:43:54,900 –> 00:43:58,500
\nlay down there Standing By Night
\nIn The House of Lord. <\/p>\n
746
\n00:43:58,500 –> 00:44:02,000
\nMy own idea about this is I’m
\nhope, this is really it, but <\/p>\n
747
\n00:44:02,200 –> 00:44:04,600
\nthat there are people all over
\nthe world who are now in Mortal <\/p>\n
748
\n00:44:04,600 –> 00:44:07,800
\nwho are governing in all the
\nprovinces of the earth who <\/p>\n
749
\n00:44:07,800 –> 00:44:09,700
\nreturned to the temple by night
\nin. <\/p>\n
750
\n00:44:09,900 –> 00:44:12,800
\nWhen it’s nighttime in their
\narea and there they meet in the <\/p>\n
751
\n00:44:12,800 –> 00:44:14,700
\ninner portion and they are
\ntables are set. <\/p>\n
752
\n00:44:14,700 –> 00:44:18,000
\nThey have meals with and they
\ncommune with people like Abraham<\/p>\n
753
\n00:44:18,000 –> 00:44:21,500
\nIsaac and Jacob maybe that’s the
\nrole of the 24 Elders or commute<\/p>\n
754
\n00:44:21,500 –> 00:44:23,000
\nwith each other.
\nI got a problem in Brazil. <\/p>\n
755
\n00:44:23,000 –> 00:44:25,500
\nI got a problem in Norfolk and
\ngot a problem in Pittsburgh. <\/p>\n
756
\n00:44:25,700 –> 00:44:27,100
\nWhat are we going to do to solve
\nthis problem? <\/p>\n
757
\n00:44:27,100 –> 00:44:29,300
\nWell, did you consider this
\nJoseph? <\/p>\n
758
\n00:44:29,300 –> 00:44:30,900
\nWhat would you do?
\nWell, here’s what I would do is <\/p>\n
759
\n00:44:30,900 –> 00:44:33,300
\nwhat I learned in, Egypt,
\nDaniel, what would you do? <\/p>\n
760
\n00:44:33,300 –> 00:44:35,700
\nWell, let me tell you what, I
\nlearned in Babylon, Nehemiah, <\/p>\n
761
\n00:44:35,700 –> 00:44:36,500
\nwhat would you do?
\nWant me? <\/p>\n
762
\n00:44:36,500 –> 00:44:39,000
\nTell you, we were trying to
\nbuild a wall in that, restore <\/p>\n
763
\n00:44:39,000 –> 00:44:42,300
\nthe Wallen Jerusalem.
\nAll these things are seem to be <\/p>\n
764
\n00:44:42,300 –> 00:44:45,700
\na part of a life in the Kingdom.
\nWhen We Stand By Night in the <\/p>\n
765
\n00:44:45,700 –> 00:44:50,300
\nhouse of the Lord, when the Lord
\nrestored, the fortunes of Zion, <\/p>\n
766
\n00:44:50,300 –> 00:44:56,300
\nwe were like those who Dream.
\nIt’s a dream come true and our <\/p>\n
767
\n00:44:56,300 –> 00:44:59,000
\nmouth was filled with laughter,
\nand our tongue, with shouts of <\/p>\n
768
\n00:44:59,000 –> 00:45:01,000
\nJoy.
\nThey said, among the nation’s, <\/p>\n
769
\n00:45:01,000 –> 00:45:02,800
\nthe Lord has done great things
\nfor them. <\/p>\n
770
\n00:45:03,700 –> 00:45:05,700
\nThe Lord has done great things
\nfor us. <\/p>\n
771
\n00:45:06,600 –> 00:45:10,200
\nWe are glad.
\nThe Lord will Comfort, Zion. <\/p>\n
772
\n00:45:12,200 –> 00:45:15,000
\nThis is the bottom line of all
\nof our considerations. <\/p>\n
773
\n00:45:16,000 –> 00:45:18,800
\nThe Lord will Comfort Zion and
\nyou will be there when he does. <\/p>\n
774
\n00:45:20,100 –> 00:45:25,500
\nHe will Comfort all her waste
\nplaces. in the restoration of <\/p>\n
775
