Class 3 from Bro. Colin Badger\u2019s Effectual Fervent Prayer of a Righteous Man Availeth Much series given at the 1987 Silver Star Bible School.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Class 2 from this series was used for GCT Episode 005.<\/p>\n
2
\n00:00:06,800 –> 00:00:11,100
\nsession 3.
\nOur speaker is brother Colin <\/p>\n
3
\n00:00:11,100 –> 00:00:15,500
\nBadger.
\nHis General theme is the <\/p>\n
4
\n00:00:15,500 –> 00:00:19,700
\neffectual fervent prayer of a
\nrighteous man availeth much. <\/p>\n
5
\n00:00:19,700 –> 00:00:26,100
\nAnd the title of this class is
\nrighteousness, belongs with unto<\/p>\n
6
\n00:00:26,100 –> 00:00:32,100
\nthee o, Yahweh.
\nThe reading is Daniel. 9 verses <\/p>\n
7
\n00:00:32,100 –> 00:00:35,500
\n1 through 19, brothers and
\nsisters. <\/p>\n
8
\n00:00:37,000 –> 00:00:41,500
\nI’d like to introduce our
\nanalysis of this next Prayer, by<\/p>\n
9
\n00:00:41,500 –> 00:00:45,500
\nDaniel, in chapter 9 by the
\nfollowing quotation. <\/p>\n
10
\n00:00:45,500 –> 00:00:48,100
\nFrom a very well known and
\nexperienced brother. <\/p>\n
11
\n00:00:50,200 –> 00:00:53,800
\nA man’s response to the needs of
\nthe community. <\/p>\n
12
\n00:00:55,000 –> 00:01:00,200
\nOf the body to which he has.
\nSupposedly given Allegiance, is <\/p>\n
13
\n00:01:00,200 –> 00:01:04,500
\noften a measure of the true
\ncharacter of the man himself, <\/p>\n
14
\n00:01:05,900 –> 00:01:09,800
\nself-seeking and disregard for
\nthe lasting well-being of the <\/p>\n
15
\n00:01:09,800 –> 00:01:12,900
\ncommunity.
\nWeakens the bonds, which are <\/p>\n
16
\n00:01:12,900 –> 00:01:17,600
\nintended to be channels of
\nstrength, rather than strife. <\/p>\n
17
\n00:01:19,100 –> 00:01:24,700
\nOur attitude to the body is our
\nattitude to Christ. <\/p>\n
18
\n00:01:25,700 –> 00:01:31,600
\nThe Ecclesia is his body.
\nIf we are superior to it, we <\/p>\n
19
\n00:01:31,600 –> 00:01:35,900
\nlack humility.
\nIf we are divisive within it, we<\/p>\n
20
\n00:01:35,900 –> 00:01:41,600
\ndeny the atonement by which we
\nhave and were reconciled and <\/p>\n
21
\n00:01:41,600 –> 00:01:46,600
\nmade one.
\nIf we neglect it, the body, we <\/p>\n
22
\n00:01:46,600 –> 00:01:52,500
\ndiminish, our affection for him.
\nIf we serve it, we do him <\/p>\n
23
\n00:01:52,500 –> 00:01:56,300
\nservice.
\nIf we edify it, we continue his <\/p>\n
24
\n00:01:56,300 –> 00:02:00,700
\nwork.
\nIf we bind up its wounds and <\/p>\n
25
\n00:02:00,700 –> 00:02:05,600
\ntake care of the week, we
\nFellowship his sufferings. <\/p>\n
26
\n00:02:07,900 –> 00:02:11,500
\nThat is the perspective of
\nDaniel chapter 9. <\/p>\n
27
\n00:02:12,900 –> 00:02:19,600
\nThose are the principles in part
\nwhich permeate the attitude and <\/p>\n
28
\n00:02:19,600 –> 00:02:23,400
\ngovern, the content of Daniel
\nchapter 9. <\/p>\n
29
\n00:02:23,800 –> 00:02:30,100
\nAs this wise, men, this Godly
\nMan pours out his heart before <\/p>\n
30
\n00:02:30,100 –> 00:02:34,400
\nYahweh God of Israel.
\nDaniel, you see brothers and <\/p>\n
31
\n00:02:34,400 –> 00:02:39,000
\nsisters, understood the doctrine
\nof the one body just as well as <\/p>\n
32
\n00:02:39,000 –> 00:02:45,400
\nit has been articulated by a
\nbrother in the 20th century, it <\/p>\n
33
\n00:02:45,400 –> 00:02:50,600
\nwas a Doctrine to which Daniel
\ngave more than just academic <\/p>\n
34
\n00:02:50,600 –> 00:02:55,200
\nAscent for as you analyze, the
\ncontents of his outpouring and <\/p>\n
35
\n00:02:55,200 –> 00:03:00,600
\nDaniel chapter 9, you can see
\nhow he grasped the doctrine of <\/p>\n
36
\n00:03:00,600 –> 00:03:04,300
\nthe one body.
\nJust as well as is it expressed <\/p>\n
37
\n00:03:04,300 –> 00:03:08,500
\nas it is expressed in many of
\nthe New Testament Epistles, and <\/p>\n
38
\n00:03:08,500 –> 00:03:15,300
\nhow so much of what he says is
\npredicated upon Daniel’s belief <\/p>\n
39
\n00:03:15,800 –> 00:03:20,400
\nand his understanding and his
\napplication of the doctrine of <\/p>\n
40
\n00:03:20,400 –> 00:03:24,200
\nthe one body.
\nDaniel chapter 9. <\/p>\n
41
\n00:03:24,200 –> 00:03:28,700
\nLet’s turn their brothers and
\nsisters and analyze the problem.<\/p>\n
42
\n00:03:28,700 –> 00:03:31,900
\nFirst of all that was before,
\nDaniel for which he prayed. <\/p>\n
43
\n00:03:34,800 –> 00:03:43,800
\nDaniel chapter 9 verse 2.
\nIn the first year of his Reign. <\/p>\n
44
\n00:03:43,900 –> 00:03:48,800
\nI Daniel understood by books,
\nthe number of the years where of<\/p>\n
45
\n00:03:48,800 –> 00:03:53,200
\nthe word of Yahweh came to
\nJeremiah the prophet that he <\/p>\n
46
\n00:03:53,200 –> 00:04:00,200
\nwould accomplish 70 years in the
\ndesolations of Jerusalem and I <\/p>\n
47
\n00:04:00,200 –> 00:04:07,100
\nset my face unto the Lord God to
\nseek by prayer and supplications<\/p>\n
48
\n00:04:07,100 –> 00:04:10,900
\nwith fasting, and sackcloth, and
\nAshes. <\/p>\n
49
\n00:04:13,000 –> 00:04:16,700
\nThere we have spelled out very
\nclearly before us, what was <\/p>\n
50
\n00:04:16,700 –> 00:04:22,000
\nbefore, Daniel he was in Babylon
\nwith his people and he was <\/p>\n
51
\n00:04:22,000 –> 00:04:25,600
\nagonizing over the Captivity of
\nhis people. <\/p>\n
52
\n00:04:26,600 –> 00:04:32,600
\nHe yearned with all his heart to
\ngo back to Jerusalem to return <\/p>\n
53
\n00:04:32,600 –> 00:04:38,600
\nto the land of promise.
\nAnd he agonized to know, <\/p>\n
54
\n00:04:38,800 –> 00:04:41,900
\naccording to the prophecies that
\nhad gone before him. <\/p>\n
55
\n00:04:43,100 –> 00:04:48,800
\nHe agonized to know how long O
\nLord to use that expression in <\/p>\n
56
\n00:04:48,800 –> 00:04:51,300
\nRevelation from The Souls under
\nthe altar. <\/p>\n
57
\n00:04:51,800 –> 00:04:57,000
\nHow long O Lord You see for
\nDaniel the subject of Bible <\/p>\n
58
\n00:04:57,000 –> 00:05:01,200
\nprophecy was not something that
\nhad simply a cursory interest <\/p>\n
59
\n00:05:01,200 –> 00:05:04,400
\nfor him.
\nThe subject of Bible prophecy <\/p>\n
60
\n00:05:04,400 –> 00:05:07,900
\nwas an integral part of Daniels
\nBible study. <\/p>\n
61
\n00:05:09,300 –> 00:05:13,800
\nHe viewed Bible prophecy.
\nSeriously, in fact, he viewed <\/p>\n
62
\n00:05:13,800 –> 00:05:16,600
\nit.
\nSo seriously that he agonized to<\/p>\n
63
\n00:05:16,600 –> 00:05:19,800
\nunderstand it and he applied
\nhimself to it and he prayed <\/p>\n
64
\n00:05:19,800 –> 00:05:23,000
\nabout it.
\nAnd it wasn’t just. <\/p>\n
65
\n00:05:24,000 –> 00:05:29,500
\nThe matter of the, what and the
\nwho of Bible prophecy you notice<\/p>\n
66
\n00:05:29,900 –> 00:05:34,800
\nin verse 2, he was concerned
\nabout the wind of Bible prophecy<\/p>\n
67
\n00:05:35,900 –> 00:05:39,000
\nand of those three.
\nThe what, The, Who, and the when<\/p>\n
68
\n00:05:39,800 –> 00:05:44,400
\ntoday, increase the delphian
\ncircles of those three, the one <\/p>\n
69
\n00:05:44,400 –> 00:05:48,200
\nthat is often stressed as being
\nleast important one. <\/p>\n
70
\n00:05:48,200 –> 00:05:53,300
\nThat is regarded talked about
\nand viewed indirectly, even as <\/p>\n
71
\n00:05:53,300 –> 00:05:59,100
\nbeing of only cursory concern is
\nthe when Bible prophecy in terms<\/p>\n
72
\n00:05:59,100 –> 00:06:03,500
\nof chronology and times and
\nseasons have for some time, lost<\/p>\n
73
\n00:06:03,500 –> 00:06:06,500
\nthe kind of urgent interest they
\nonce held in our community. <\/p>\n
74
\n00:06:06,800 –> 00:06:09,500
\nThat’s a fact.
\nWe have to admit it. <\/p>\n
75
\n00:06:10,000 –> 00:06:13,500
\nIt’s obvious in a, many, many
\nways as we look out in our own <\/p>\n
76
\n00:06:13,500 –> 00:06:17,700
\nCommunity, many are saying that
\nuntil certain events are <\/p>\n
77
\n00:06:17,700 –> 00:06:20,300
\nfulfilled.
\nWe do well, not to spend much <\/p>\n
78
\n00:06:20,300 –> 00:06:22,600
\ntime on the chronology of Bible
\nprophecy. <\/p>\n
79
\n00:06:24,100 –> 00:06:26,100
\nThat was not the perspective of
\nDaniel. <\/p>\n
80
\n00:06:27,100 –> 00:06:32,900
\nThat is not the example, Daniel
\nsets for us his prayer, betrays <\/p>\n
81
\n00:06:33,300 –> 00:06:35,700
\nbrothers, and sisters are
\ncontrary you. <\/p>\n
82
\n00:06:37,100 –> 00:06:41,000
\nHe wanted to know on the basis
\nof the writings of Jeremiah who <\/p>\n
83
\n00:06:41,000 –> 00:06:45,200
\nhad gone before him, where he
\nwas in time in relationship to <\/p>\n
84
\n00:06:45,200 –> 00:06:50,500
\nthe 70 year captivity and to
\nseek an answer to that. <\/p>\n
85
\n00:06:50,900 –> 00:06:56,000
\nDespite the fact that he was a
\nHoly Spirit Gifted Man. <\/p>\n
86
\n00:06:57,100 –> 00:07:01,500
\nDespite those privileges he
\nstill had to do his Bible study <\/p>\n
87
\n00:07:02,000 –> 00:07:06,900
\nand study, he did.
\nBut we notice, he didn’t only <\/p>\n
88
\n00:07:06,900 –> 00:07:11,200
\nstudy, he prayed about it.
\nVerse 3 again. <\/p>\n
89
\n00:07:12,100 –> 00:07:16,300
\nLook at the words that stress
\nthe attitude of Daniel. <\/p>\n
90
\n00:07:16,300 –> 00:07:20,500
\nAs he approaches this important
\nsubject to him prayer, <\/p>\n
91
\n00:07:21,100 –> 00:07:26,500
\nsupplication fasting, sackcloth
\nand Ashes. <\/p>\n
92
\n00:07:27,100 –> 00:07:29,600
\nHe prostrated himself before the
\nbooks. <\/p>\n
93
\n00:07:29,600 –> 00:07:34,300
\nAnd before his father in prayer
\nand in study prayerfully and <\/p>\n
94
\n00:07:34,300 –> 00:07:39,300
\ncarefully, he agonized to know,
\nand understand the words of <\/p>\n
95
\n00:07:39,300 –> 00:07:44,800
\nthese secrets verse four, he
\nbegins a much larger prayer that<\/p>\n
96
\n00:07:44,800 –> 00:07:49,600
\nbroadens out into a much larger
\nconcern than just knowing where <\/p>\n
97
\n00:07:49,600 –> 00:07:53,500
\nhe was in time.
\nAnd I prayed unto the Lord, my <\/p>\n
98
\n00:07:53,500 –> 00:07:58,300
\nGod and made my confession and
\nsaid, Oh Lord, the great and <\/p>\n
99
\n00:07:58,300 –> 00:08:02,600
\nDreadful God keeping the
\nCovenant, and mercy to them, <\/p>\n
100
\n00:08:02,600 –> 00:08:09,600
\nthat love him and to them that
\nkeep his Commandments, we have <\/p>\n
101
\n00:08:09,600 –> 00:08:14,400
\nsinned and have committed
\niniquity and have done wickedly <\/p>\n
102
\n00:08:14,800 –> 00:08:18,000
\nand have rebelled even by
\ndeparting from thy precepts and <\/p>\n
103
\n00:08:18,000 –> 00:08:21,600
\nfrom thy.
\nJudgments neither have we <\/p>\n
104
\n00:08:21,700 –> 00:08:25,200
\nhearkened unto thy servants, the
\nprophets, which spake, in thy <\/p>\n
105
\n00:08:25,200 –> 00:08:29,400
\nname to our Kings.
\nOur princes and our fathers, and<\/p>\n
106
\n00:08:29,400 –> 00:08:34,900
\nto all the people of the land.
\nOh, Lord, righteousness, belongs<\/p>\n
107
\n00:08:34,900 –> 00:08:39,799
\nwith unto thee, but unto us
\nconfusion of faces, as at this <\/p>\n
108
\n00:08:39,799 –> 00:08:43,000
\nday, to the men of Judah, and to
\nthe inhabitants of Jerusalem and<\/p>\n
109
\n00:08:43,000 –> 00:08:47,500
\nto all Israel that are near and
\nthat are afar off through all <\/p>\n
110
\n00:08:47,500 –> 00:08:50,700
\nthe countries, whether thou Hast
\ndriven them because of their <\/p>\n
111
\n00:08:50,700 –> 00:08:53,500
\ntrespass that they have
\ntrespassed against thee. <\/p>\n
112
\n00:08:54,900 –> 00:08:58,200
\nOh Lord, to wasp along with
\nconfusion of faiths, to our <\/p>\n
113
\n00:08:58,200 –> 00:09:02,400
\nKings, and to our princes, and
\nto our fathers, because we have <\/p>\n
114
\n00:09:02,400 –> 00:09:08,100
\nsinned against thee to the Lord,
\nOur God belong mercies and <\/p>\n
115
\n00:09:08,100 –> 00:09:13,700
\nforgiveness says, though, we
\nhave rebelled against him. <\/p>\n
116
\n00:09:15,200 –> 00:09:20,200
\nOnly the introduction of a very
\nlong but very powerful prayer. <\/p>\n
117
\n00:09:21,200 –> 00:09:24,400
\nWe haven’t really the time to
\nanalyze that prayer in all its <\/p>\n
118
\n00:09:24,400 –> 00:09:27,300
\ndetails.
\nYou see, the christadelphians <\/p>\n
119
\n00:09:27,300 –> 00:09:29,100
\nprayer there for the Peace of
\nJerusalem. <\/p>\n
120
\n00:09:29,100 –> 00:09:32,600
\nDon’t you pray for the Peace of
\nJerusalem? <\/p>\n
121
\n00:09:32,600 –> 00:09:34,400
\nThey shall prosper that love
\nthee. <\/p>\n
122
\n00:09:35,200 –> 00:09:39,600
\nA very important aspect of his
\nprayer was just exactly that <\/p>\n
123
\n00:09:40,100 –> 00:09:44,000
\nthat he might have the blessing
\nof seeing Jerusalem glorified <\/p>\n
124
\n00:09:44,000 –> 00:09:46,700
\nonce again.
\nTo go back and to put his feet <\/p>\n
125
\n00:09:46,700 –> 00:09:50,200
\nin the land with his people and
\nwe to pray for the same. <\/p>\n
126
\n00:09:50,800 –> 00:09:55,300
\nBut perhaps at times in our
\nprayers, the subject of <\/p>\n
127
\n00:09:55,300 –> 00:10:00,300
\nJerusalem is not as frequently
\nmentioned, as it used to be the <\/p>\n
128
\n00:10:00,300 –> 00:10:02,200
\nbackground of the hope of
\nIsrael. <\/p>\n
129
\n00:10:02,600 –> 00:10:06,200
\nTo the christadelphians
\ncommunity as a precious one, the<\/p>\n
130
\n00:10:06,200 –> 00:10:09,700
\nvery fact that brother Thomas
\nbegan to express the gospel, <\/p>\n
131
\n00:10:10,000 –> 00:10:12,200
\nthrough that term, the hope of
\nIsrael. <\/p>\n
132
\n00:10:12,900 –> 00:10:17,400
\nPaved and provided atone for our
\napproach, for many, many years <\/p>\n
133
\n00:10:17,400 –> 00:10:20,100
\nin our lectures and the way we
\naddressed one another, in the <\/p>\n
134
\n00:10:20,100 –> 00:10:24,500
\nway we express the truth, it was
\nthe Hallmark of the expression <\/p>\n
135
\n00:10:24,500 –> 00:10:28,200
\nof our community, the hope of
\nIsrael to, which Paul was bound <\/p>\n
136
\n00:10:28,200 –> 00:10:31,300
\nfor a chain.
\nBrothers and sisters. <\/p>\n
137
\n00:10:31,300 –> 00:10:33,600
\nWe ought not to lose that
\nperspective. <\/p>\n
138
\n00:10:33,700 –> 00:10:36,200
\nBecause in some quarters, it is
\ndisintegrating. <\/p>\n
139
\n00:10:37,300 –> 00:10:41,400
\nThere are emphases now creeping
\ninto some of our writings <\/p>\n
140
\n00:10:42,100 –> 00:10:46,900
\nemphasis only perhaps, which is
\novershadowing, this very <\/p>\n
141
\n00:10:46,900 –> 00:10:52,000
\nimportant background, our focus
\non that land, our focus on that <\/p>\n
142
\n00:10:52,000 –> 00:10:58,300
\npeople, our focus on that City
\nand our prayers constantly <\/p>\n
143
\n00:10:59,000 –> 00:11:03,900
\nprivately publicly together as a
\nbody for the Peace of Jerusalem.<\/p>\n
144
\n00:11:05,000 –> 00:11:08,800
\nI’m not going to spend a great
\ndeal of time on that point other<\/p>\n
145
\n00:11:08,800 –> 00:11:12,600
\nthan to underscore its
\nfundamental importance here as <\/p>\n
146
\n00:11:12,700 –> 00:11:18,600
\nthe prayer of a man of God who
\nwas wise And distress as we have<\/p>\n
147
\n00:11:18,600 –> 00:11:23,200
\nnow, the importance of not
\nlosing that perspective. <\/p>\n
148
\n00:11:24,600 –> 00:11:28,800
\nSecondly, other elements of this
\nprayer deserve attention. <\/p>\n
149
\n00:11:29,200 –> 00:11:33,900
\nThere is an attitude of Mind
\nhere that attitude is described <\/p>\n
150
\n00:11:33,900 –> 00:11:36,900
\nfor us as we’ve already seen in
\nverse 3. <\/p>\n
151
\n00:11:38,400 –> 00:11:42,800
\nIt’s an attitude of humility and
\nattitude of coming before the <\/p>\n
152
\n00:11:42,800 –> 00:11:45,100
\nfather.
\nAnd in both mind. <\/p>\n
153
\n00:11:45,100 –> 00:11:50,500
\nAnd in body prostrating oneself
\nin humility before the throne of<\/p>\n
154
\n00:11:50,500 –> 00:11:56,100
\ngrace of that, attitude of Mind
\nin prayer requires careful <\/p>\n
155
\n00:11:56,100 –> 00:12:00,900
\npreparation, it’s not a facade.
\nIt’s not what someday someone <\/p>\n
156
\n00:12:00,900 –> 00:12:03,500
\ndoes.
\nThe last few minutes of the day,<\/p>\n
157
\n00:12:03,500 –> 00:12:07,300
\nwhen one is weary and tired and
\nthen finally slips off into <\/p>\n
158
\n00:12:07,300 –> 00:12:11,500
\nsleep before the Is done.
\nThat is the posture of a wise, <\/p>\n
159
\n00:12:11,500 –> 00:12:16,200
\nman of a man who was Godly in
\nhis approach to prayer. <\/p>\n
160
\n00:12:16,800 –> 00:12:20,100
\nYou can’t go through that kind
\nof exercise and have that kind <\/p>\n
161
\n00:12:20,100 –> 00:12:23,100
\nof attitude, of mind and prayer,
\nwithout being very Vigilant <\/p>\n
162
\n00:12:23,700 –> 00:12:25,400
\nabout being awake and what
\nyou’re doing. <\/p>\n
163
\n00:12:26,800 –> 00:12:30,700
\nEvery one of those steps
\ndescribes an important attitude.<\/p>\n
164
\n00:12:31,700 –> 00:12:35,600
\nIt in fact is the attitude
\ndescribed to the prophet Joel. <\/p>\n
165
\n00:12:36,500 –> 00:12:40,100
\nI’d like just to turn there
\nbecause it’s not obviously the <\/p>\n
166
\n00:12:40,100 –> 00:12:47,500
\nexternal that is important in
\nthe ashes, in the sack cloth, in<\/p>\n
167
\n00:12:47,500 –> 00:12:50,500
\nthe external prostrating of
\none’s body before, the throne of<\/p>\n
168
\n00:12:50,500 –> 00:12:55,500
\ngrace it is whether or not that
\nsame is found from within. <\/p>\n
169
\n00:12:57,000 –> 00:13:01,100
\nIt was no doubt with Daniel.
\nNotice what is said in Joel <\/p>\n
170
\n00:13:01,100 –> 00:13:05,700
\nchapter 2 and this regard?
\nSpells it out very nicely. <\/p>\n
171
\n00:13:08,200 –> 00:13:14,400
\nVerse 12.
\nTherefore, also now saith the <\/p>\n
172
\n00:13:14,400 –> 00:13:20,800
\nLord tourney, even to me, with
\nall your heart, and with <\/p>\n
173
\n00:13:20,800 –> 00:13:26,000
\nfasting, and with weeping, and
\nwith morning, and Rend your <\/p>\n
174
\n00:13:26,000 –> 00:13:32,700
\nheart, and not your garments and
\nturn unto the Lord your God for <\/p>\n
175
\n00:13:32,700 –> 00:13:38,500
\nhe is gracious, and merciful
\nslow to anger and of great <\/p>\n
176
\n00:13:38,500 –> 00:13:41,900
\nkindness and repented him of the
\nevil. <\/p>\n
177
\n00:13:43,100 –> 00:13:47,000
\nYou see that phrase in verse 13
\nis he the tearing of ones <\/p>\n
178
\n00:13:47,000 –> 00:13:51,300
\ngarment putting on ashes and
\nsackcloth meant nothing. <\/p>\n
179
\n00:13:51,900 –> 00:13:56,400
\nUnless that was an expression of
\nan inward prostration of an <\/p>\n
180
\n00:13:56,400 –> 00:14:00,400
\ninward attitude of humility
\nbefore the throne of grace, it <\/p>\n
181
\n00:14:00,400 –> 00:14:02,900
\nwas a symbol of urgency and dire
\ndistress. <\/p>\n
182
\n00:14:03,300 –> 00:14:09,100
\nIt was a symbol of morning and
\nDaniel is morning from within. <\/p>\n
183
\n00:14:09,800 –> 00:14:13,300
\nHe is agonizing.
\nNot only to know and And the <\/p>\n
184
\n00:14:13,300 –> 00:14:16,900
\nmeaning of Jeremiah’s prophecies
\nbut he’s agonizing over the <\/p>\n
185
\n00:14:16,900 –> 00:14:20,600
\nplight of his nation and on the
\nbasis of the doctrine of the one<\/p>\n
186
\n00:14:20,600 –> 00:14:24,000
\nbody.
\nDaniel identifies himself <\/p>\n
187
\n00:14:24,000 –> 00:14:27,600
\nbrothers and sisters completely
\nwith the body of Israel. <\/p>\n
188
\n00:14:27,600 –> 00:14:33,400
\nGood and bad.
\nHe merges himself in his prayer <\/p>\n
189
\n00:14:33,400 –> 00:14:38,200
\nwith the nation.
\nThe language is that of we and <\/p>\n
190
\n00:14:38,200 –> 00:14:44,200
\nus and our, do you notice how
\nmany times those expressions are<\/p>\n
191
\n00:14:44,200 –> 00:14:49,000
\nstudied through his prayer?
\nWe have sinned, we have done <\/p>\n
192
\n00:14:49,000 –> 00:14:55,800
\nthis, we have done that, our
\nfathers, our sin us, Very <\/p>\n
193
\n00:14:55,800 –> 00:15:00,400
\nimportant perspective based on
\nhis understanding of himself and<\/p>\n
194
\n00:15:00,400 –> 00:15:04,400
\nhis Nation, being one body with
\nmany members, like the language <\/p>\n
195
\n00:15:04,400 –> 00:15:08,600
\nof the Apostle Paul and with
\nthat perception and <\/p>\n
196
\n00:15:08,600 –> 00:15:13,800
\nunderstanding, Joel chapter 2,
\nexpands that attitude of mind <\/p>\n
197
\n00:15:13,800 –> 00:15:19,600
\nfor in his Agony.
\nHe agonized for his Nation as <\/p>\n
198
\n00:15:19,600 –> 00:15:24,100
\nwell as for himself.
\nHe rent his garments but he had <\/p>\n
199
\n00:15:24,100 –> 00:15:30,300
\nrent his He came to offer
\nrepentance on behalf of his <\/p>\n
200
\n00:15:30,300 –> 00:15:35,400
\nNation as well as himself.
\nAnd the objective, the objective<\/p>\n
201
\n00:15:35,400 –> 00:15:39,900
\nin verse 13 of Joel to to turn
\nunto the Lord, your God. <\/p>\n
202
\n00:15:40,000 –> 00:15:46,200
\nFor he is gracious in turning
\ntheir selves themselves from <\/p>\n
203
\n00:15:46,200 –> 00:15:51,800
\ntheir plight from their sins,
\ntheir Disobedience and turning <\/p>\n
204
\n00:15:51,800 –> 00:15:57,100
\nto the father, Daniel and Joel
\nremind us that in doing. <\/p>\n
205
\n00:15:57,100 –> 00:16:01,900
\nSo we turn to one.
\nWho is gracious, who is willing <\/p>\n
206
\n00:16:01,900 –> 00:16:06,900
\nand wanting to forgive?
\nWho in fact is slow to anger, <\/p>\n
207
\n00:16:07,000 –> 00:16:11,600
\nunlike us.
\nWho is of great, kindness, which<\/p>\n
208
\n00:16:11,600 –> 00:16:17,300
\nat times is not the
\ncharacteristic of us and who is <\/p>\n
209
\n00:16:17,300 –> 00:16:22,300
\nwillingly one to repent and
\nforgive unlike us. <\/p>\n
210
\n00:16:22,600 –> 00:16:26,600
\nMany of the times in our
\ndealings with one another We go <\/p>\n
211
\n00:16:26,600 –> 00:16:30,100
\nback to Daniel chapter 9.
\nThere is the problem. <\/p>\n
212
\n00:16:31,400 –> 00:16:36,200
\nAnd there is the attitude of
\nMind before the prayer can be <\/p>\n
213
\n00:16:36,200 –> 00:16:44,400
\nfully analyzed. there is also,
\nas we notice in verse 4, The <\/p>\n
214
\n00:16:44,400 –> 00:16:48,100
\nelement of Praise.
\nNow, this element of Praise is a<\/p>\n
215
\n00:16:48,108 –> 00:16:51,700
\nsubject on its own.
\nWe will analyze it in a little <\/p>\n
216
\n00:16:51,700 –> 00:16:54,700
\nmore detail in one of the other
\nprayers during the week, <\/p>\n
217
\n00:16:55,000 –> 00:17:00,200
\nsufficient to note in verse 4.
\nThat like the Lord’s Prayer, the<\/p>\n
218
\n00:17:00,200 –> 00:17:05,400
\nintroductory statements of his
\nprayer, which reflect his <\/p>\n
219
\n00:17:05,400 –> 00:17:09,099
\nattitude of Mind before.
\nThe father is not only one of <\/p>\n
220
\n00:17:09,099 –> 00:17:14,300
\nconfession, but verse 40, Lord,
\nthe great and Dreadful. <\/p>\n
221
\n00:17:14,300 –> 00:17:19,000
\nGod, Dreadful there, by the way,
\nmeans a sense of awe, in Wonder.<\/p>\n
222
\n00:17:19,000 –> 00:17:22,400
\nIt’s a statement of reverence,
\nnot of one of complete <\/p>\n
223
\n00:17:22,400 –> 00:17:25,599
\ntrepidation and fear.
\nPerhaps we could say, though, a <\/p>\n
224
\n00:17:25,599 –> 00:17:29,100
\nreverential fear, yes, but not
\none of cowering before the <\/p>\n
225
\n00:17:29,100 –> 00:17:32,500
\nfather.
\nOh, Lord, the great and Dreadful<\/p>\n
226
\n00:17:32,500 –> 00:17:37,000
\nGod one with awe and wonder
\ndeserves respect, keeping the <\/p>\n
227
\n00:17:37,000 –> 00:17:40,800
\nCovenant and mercy to them, that
\nlove him and to them that keep <\/p>\n
228
\n00:17:40,800 –> 00:17:46,300
\nhis Commandments, there is irony
\nin that statement Do you notice <\/p>\n
229
\n00:17:46,300 –> 00:17:48,100
\nhow at the beginning of his
\nprayer? <\/p>\n
230
\n00:17:48,100 –> 00:17:51,300
\nHe attributes to the father.
\nWhat he denies to the nation <\/p>\n
231
\n00:17:51,300 –> 00:17:55,800
\nlater on in his prayer for to
\nthe father, he says, Thou Art <\/p>\n
232
\n00:17:55,800 –> 00:18:01,300
\nthe one that keepest by Covenant
\nThou Art, the one who keep you. <\/p>\n
233
\n00:18:01,300 –> 00:18:05,000
\nKeep us thy Commandments.
\nBut what does he say? <\/p>\n
234
\n00:18:05,000 –> 00:18:09,700
\nIn verse 5 of the people, what
\nhave human beings and verse 6 <\/p>\n
235
\n00:18:09,700 –> 00:18:12,500
\nand 7?
\nAnd so on down through what <\/p>\n
236
\n00:18:12,500 –> 00:18:15,000
\nabout verse 11, all Israel have
\ntransgressed. <\/p>\n
237
\n00:18:15,700 –> 00:18:19,600
\nBy law.
\nHe says of his people that they <\/p>\n
238
\n00:18:19,600 –> 00:18:23,100
\nhave departed from the Covenant,
\nbut to the father he says <\/p>\n
239
\n00:18:23,100 –> 00:18:28,100
\nthough, he passed by Covenant.
\nIt’s a statement of reverence <\/p>\n
240
\n00:18:28,100 –> 00:18:33,800
\nand respect for the stability.
\nFor The Eternity of the father’s<\/p>\n
241
\n00:18:33,800 –> 00:18:36,200
\nwill.
\nIt’s a statement and a <\/p>\n
242
\n00:18:36,208 –> 00:18:40,700
\nconviction to do with his
\nloyalty to his people but his <\/p>\n
243
\n00:18:40,700 –> 00:18:45,300
\npeople have not been loyal to
\nhim in contrast, then through <\/p>\n
244
\n00:18:45,300 –> 00:18:48,600
\nthe rest of the prayer, we see
\nhow the people have failed to <\/p>\n
245
\n00:18:48,600 –> 00:18:52,000
\nkeep the terms of that Covenant
\nand how they have turned their <\/p>\n
246
\n00:18:52,000 –> 00:18:55,600
\nback on God though, God has
\nnever turned his back on them. <\/p>\n
247
\n00:18:56,500 –> 00:19:01,800
\nAnd for that he Praises his
\nfather it is an expression of <\/p>\n
248
\n00:19:01,800 –> 00:19:04,600
\nsacrifice under the law of
\nMoses. <\/p>\n
249
\n00:19:04,700 –> 00:19:07,600
\nThere was an offering that had
\nto do with praise. <\/p>\n
250
\n00:19:08,300 –> 00:19:11,600
\nThere are expressions in the
\nprophets like Hosea, the talk <\/p>\n
251
\n00:19:11,600 –> 00:19:13,900
\nabout.
\nLet us offer the calves of our <\/p>\n
252
\n00:19:13,900 –> 00:19:16,700
\nlips.
\nAs though What comes forth from <\/p>\n
253
\n00:19:16,700 –> 00:19:21,100
\nthose lips and praise and True.
\nPraise is a kind of Sacrifice <\/p>\n
254
\n00:19:21,100 –> 00:19:25,500
\nfrom our words and down into our
\nheart as the source will come <\/p>\n
255
\n00:19:25,500 –> 00:19:28,200
\nback to that.
\nBut notice how it appears up <\/p>\n
256
\n00:19:28,200 –> 00:19:32,400
\nfront in his prayer.
\nIt is very important to capture <\/p>\n
257
\n00:19:32,400 –> 00:19:36,600
\nthat as part of Daniel’s
\nattitude to the father and we <\/p>\n
258
\n00:19:36,608 –> 00:19:40,000
\nremind ourselves of its parallel
\nof course in that model prayer <\/p>\n
259
\n00:19:40,000 –> 00:19:43,600
\nfrom the Sun.
\nOur Father who art in heaven, <\/p>\n
260
\n00:19:44,400 –> 00:19:50,700
\nHallowed be thy name, thy
\nkingdom come thy will be done on<\/p>\n
261
\n00:19:50,700 –> 00:19:56,300
\nEarth as it is done, Heaven.
\nPraise reverence. <\/p>\n
262
\n00:19:56,700 –> 00:20:00,500
\nAn attitude of Mind.
\nCareful preparation before <\/p>\n
263
\n00:20:00,500 –> 00:20:05,400
\ncoming to the father in prayer.
\nBut let’s return again to that <\/p>\n
264
\n00:20:05,400 –> 00:20:10,300
\nimportant theme of, we like to
\nunderscore how often it occurs <\/p>\n
265
\n00:20:11,200 –> 00:20:13,200
\nverse 5.
\nAnd perhaps, if you have a <\/p>\n
266
\n00:20:13,208 –> 00:20:16,200
\npencil it deserves circling
\nthese pronouns. <\/p>\n
267
\n00:20:18,800 –> 00:20:23,700
\nThe corporate picture of Daniel
\nand his sinful Nation verse <\/p>\n
268
\n00:20:23,700 –> 00:20:27,000
\nfive.
\nWe have sinned verse 6. <\/p>\n
269
\n00:20:27,000 –> 00:20:32,000
\nNeither have we?
\nHearkened Verse 8, towards the <\/p>\n
270
\n00:20:32,000 –> 00:20:36,300
\nend of the verse because we have
\nsinned against thee verse 9. <\/p>\n
271
\n00:20:36,300 –> 00:20:40,400
\nAt the end, we have rebelled
\nagainst thee verse 11. <\/p>\n
272
\n00:20:40,500 –> 00:20:46,800
\nThe last phrase because we have
\nsinned against him verse 13 as <\/p>\n
273
\n00:20:46,800 –> 00:20:48,600
\nit is written.
\nIn the law of Moses, all the <\/p>\n
274
\n00:20:48,600 –> 00:20:54,800
\nsiebel has come upon us yet,
\nmade we not our prayer verse 15,<\/p>\n
275
\n00:20:54,800 –> 00:20:57,100
\nat the end of game.
\nWe have sinned. <\/p>\n
276
\n00:20:57,800 –> 00:21:04,900
\nWe again have done.
\nWickedly Lee. verse 20, and <\/p>\n
277
\n00:21:04,900 –> 00:21:09,800
\nwhilst I was praying and
\npraying, and confessing my sin <\/p>\n
278
\n00:21:10,100 –> 00:21:16,600
\nand the sin of my people now
\nthink about what Daniel is <\/p>\n
279
\n00:21:16,600 –> 00:21:22,500
\nsaying and implying, by that
\nterm, we had Daniel really <\/p>\n
280
\n00:21:22,500 –> 00:21:26,100
\ncommitted those iniquities as
\nthe fathers of Israel had before<\/p>\n
281
\n00:21:26,100 –> 00:21:29,400
\nhim.
\nCould we say in verse 5 that <\/p>\n
282
\n00:21:29,400 –> 00:21:31,600
\nDaniel had committed iniquity
\nand done. <\/p>\n
283
\n00:21:31,600 –> 00:21:36,500
\nWickedly had Daniel rebelled and
\nverse 5 against the Covenant <\/p>\n
284
\n00:21:36,700 –> 00:21:39,000
\nhimself.
\nHad he departed from the <\/p>\n
285
\n00:21:39,000 –> 00:21:44,700
\nprecepts and from the judgments
\nDid he deserve those kind of <\/p>\n
286
\n00:21:44,700 –> 00:21:50,200
\nindictments?
\nif not, why does he say we and <\/p>\n
287
\n00:21:50,200 –> 00:21:58,200
\nnot, they Once again, it betrays
\na Godly attitude of mind. <\/p>\n
288
\n00:21:59,500 –> 00:22:04,300
\nIt betrays his understanding of
\nhow he, as any faithful man. <\/p>\n
289
\n00:22:04,300 –> 00:22:10,700
\nAnd in part mediator is to
\nidentify himself fully with the <\/p>\n
290
\n00:22:10,700 –> 00:22:15,800
\nsins and the weaknesses, the
\nwounds and the sicknesses of the<\/p>\n
291
\n00:22:15,800 –> 00:22:22,100
\nbody that we is not what we
\nwould call The Royal we but in <\/p>\n
292
\n00:22:22,100 –> 00:22:27,200
\nScripture it is the priest like
\nwe for that is the attitude of a<\/p>\n
293
\n00:22:27,200 –> 00:22:30,200
\npriest.
\nIt is the attitude of one who <\/p>\n
294
\n00:22:30,200 –> 00:22:33,700
\nidentifies himself with the
\npeople as the people of Israel <\/p>\n
295
\n00:22:33,700 –> 00:22:37,500
\nwere to put their hands on the
\nLevites and identification of <\/p>\n
296
\n00:22:37,500 –> 00:22:42,100
\ntheir role and how the levite
\nintern was identifying himself <\/p>\n
297
\n00:22:42,300 –> 00:22:46,700
\nwith the people he represented.
\nit is also, of course, seen in <\/p>\n
298
\n00:22:46,708 –> 00:22:50,800
\nthe law of Moses and so many
\nother ways, where the priesthood<\/p>\n
299
\n00:22:51,100 –> 00:22:54,900
\nofficiates on behalf of and for
\nthe people where in the <\/p>\n
300
\n00:22:54,900 –> 00:22:58,100
\nTabernacle services, like the
\nlanguage in Hebrews, the high <\/p>\n
301
\n00:22:58,100 –> 00:23:02,300
\npriest himself made an offering
\nfor the sins both of himself and<\/p>\n
302
\n00:23:02,300 –> 00:23:08,800
\nthe people We know in scripture,
\nsurely that this isn’t something<\/p>\n
303
\n00:23:08,800 –> 00:23:13,000
\nunique to Daniel that term.
\nWe is found. <\/p>\n
304
\n00:23:13,000 –> 00:23:16,900
\nAnd that attitude is found in
\nthe prayers of all the Great Men<\/p>\n
305
\n00:23:16,900 –> 00:23:20,900
\nof the Bible.
\nGreat now, not so much in the <\/p>\n
306
\n00:23:20,900 –> 00:23:25,300
\nsense of their faith, not so
\nmuch in the great Deeds that <\/p>\n
307
\n00:23:25,300 –> 00:23:27,900
\nthey did.
\nLike the Samson’s and others <\/p>\n
308
\n00:23:27,900 –> 00:23:32,400
\nlike him, who did Mighty acts in
\nwar but greatness in a different<\/p>\n
309
\n00:23:32,400 –> 00:23:35,300
\nsense.
\nIn the sense of the priests, <\/p>\n
310
\n00:23:35,300 –> 00:23:41,700
\nlike we, let’s just sample how
\nDaniels prayer harmonizes with <\/p>\n
311
\n00:23:41,700 –> 00:23:46,200
\nthese sentiments elsewhere.
\nFor example, Ezra. <\/p>\n
312
\n00:23:49,900 –> 00:23:54,900
\nThis is a pertinent reference
\nbecause it’s at the same time or<\/p>\n
313
\n00:23:54,900 –> 00:23:58,900
\nat least it’s at a time that
\ncomplements the time of Daniel, <\/p>\n
314
\n00:23:59,400 –> 00:24:03,400
\nit’s when the nation have gone
\nhas gone back in part under <\/p>\n
315
\n00:24:03,400 –> 00:24:07,900
\nEzra’s leadership, as a result
\nof their captivity from Babylon.<\/p>\n
316
\n00:24:08,000 –> 00:24:12,800
\nHaving suffered this, The Plight
\nfor the same kind of are right. <\/p>\n
317
\n00:24:12,800 –> 00:24:21,200
\nEzra chapter 9.
\nDon’t just be like, just to look<\/p>\n
318
\n00:24:21,200 –> 00:24:26,300
\nat verses 5 to 7.
\nThink of Daniel as you read this<\/p>\n
319
\n00:24:26,300 –> 00:24:32,300
\ndescription and see the
\nparallels verse 5 of Dan of Ezra<\/p>\n
320
\n00:24:32,300 –> 00:24:35,500
\n9.
\nAnd at the evening sacrifice, I <\/p>\n
321
\n00:24:35,500 –> 00:24:40,500
\nrose up from my heaviness,
\nhaving rent, my garment, and my <\/p>\n
322
\n00:24:40,500 –> 00:24:45,300
\nmantle, I fell upon my knees and
\nspread out my hands unto Yahweh.<\/p>\n
323
\n00:24:45,300 –> 00:24:53,100
\nMy God and said, oh my God.
\nI am ashamed and blush to lift <\/p>\n
324
\n00:24:53,100 –> 00:24:55,000
\nup my face to thee.
\nMy God. <\/p>\n
325
\n00:24:56,600 –> 00:25:04,200
\nFor our iniquities are increased
\nover our head and our trespasses<\/p>\n
326
\n00:25:04,200 –> 00:25:09,300
\ngrown up unto the heavens.
\nSince the days of our fathers, <\/p>\n
327
\n00:25:09,300 –> 00:25:13,600
\nhave we been in a great trespass
\non to this day for our <\/p>\n
328
\n00:25:13,600 –> 00:25:20,600
\niniquities have we, our Kings
\nand our priests being delivered <\/p>\n
329
\n00:25:20,600 –> 00:25:23,600
\ninto the land of the kings of
\nthe lands, to the sword to <\/p>\n
330
\n00:25:23,600 –> 00:25:28,300
\ncaptivity and to a spoil.
\nAnd Confusion of face as it is <\/p>\n
331
\n00:25:28,300 –> 00:25:31,700
\nthis day.
\nThere’s a great deal that we can<\/p>\n
332
\n00:25:31,700 –> 00:25:34,700
\nsee in Ezra’s prayer that
\nparallels, that of Daniel <\/p>\n
333
\n00:25:35,200 –> 00:25:40,400
\nperspective.
\nNumber one, we and our and us <\/p>\n
334
\n00:25:41,300 –> 00:25:45,400
\nhad Ezra done those things.
\nReally had he committed <\/p>\n
335
\n00:25:45,400 –> 00:25:48,500
\niniquity.
\nHad he trespassed? <\/p>\n
336
\n00:25:48,800 –> 00:25:51,600
\nAnd had his trespasses
\npersonally, grown up into the <\/p>\n
337
\n00:25:51,600 –> 00:25:56,000
\nheavens and he committed.
\nThe great press trespass onto <\/p>\n
338
\n00:25:56,000 –> 00:25:59,900
\nthis day in verse 7.
\nThen why does he pray that way? <\/p>\n
339
\n00:26:01,300 –> 00:26:05,600
\nIt wasn’t a superficial
\nidentification with his people. <\/p>\n
340
\n00:26:06,500 –> 00:26:08,900
\nIt wasn’t false humility or
\nmodesty. <\/p>\n
341
\n00:26:09,800 –> 00:26:14,600
\nIt was the sincere genuine
\noutpouring of a man of God who <\/p>\n
342
\n00:26:14,600 –> 00:26:19,400
\nBlended himself with the body
\nwho saw himself part of a nation<\/p>\n
343
\n00:26:19,400 –> 00:26:21,300
\nand an Ecclesia that needed
\nhelp. <\/p>\n
344
\n00:26:22,900 –> 00:26:27,000
\nIt wasn’t the distance of the
\nPharisee described in the gospel<\/p>\n
345
\n00:26:27,600 –> 00:26:31,400
\nwho stood a great while off or a
\ngreat distance off from The <\/p>\n
346
\n00:26:31,400 –> 00:26:35,100
\nSinner beside him.
\nAnd who prayed with the personal<\/p>\n
347
\n00:26:35,100 –> 00:26:41,000
\npronoun i’.
\nI this and I that and who said <\/p>\n
348
\n00:26:41,000 –> 00:26:43,700
\nI?
\nThank the God that I am not as <\/p>\n
349
\n00:26:43,700 –> 00:26:49,600
\nother Sinners, that’s a
\npharisaic latitude, in contrast <\/p>\n
350
\n00:26:49,600 –> 00:26:53,900
\nto these Great Men Who
\nunderstood what Under of men and<\/p>\n
351
\n00:26:53,900 –> 00:26:57,400
\nwomen, they were the same
\nsentiment is expressed, of <\/p>\n
352
\n00:26:57,400 –> 00:27:02,300
\ncourse, by Nehemiah the same as
\nexpressed also, by Moses, the <\/p>\n
353
\n00:27:02,300 –> 00:27:06,700
\ngreat mediator in Exodus 32
\nwhere he wishes to have himself <\/p>\n
354
\n00:27:07,300 –> 00:27:11,400
\nblotted out rather than the
\nnation being blotted out, where <\/p>\n
355
\n00:27:11,400 –> 00:27:15,200
\nMoses steps as it were between
\nIsrael and God between them both<\/p>\n
356
\n00:27:15,600 –> 00:27:20,800
\nand pleads to God, that his life
\nmight be removed rather than God<\/p>\n
357
\n00:27:20,800 –> 00:27:23,800
\nis sponging.
\nThe nation of well, God had told<\/p>\n
358
\n00:27:23,800 –> 00:27:27,200
\nhim that he could create a new
\nnation, Moses stepped in between<\/p>\n
359
\n00:27:27,500 –> 00:27:30,500
\nand asked that his life be taken
\nhad Moses. <\/p>\n
360
\n00:27:30,500 –> 00:27:34,400
\nDone wrong.
\nDid Moses deserve to be stoned <\/p>\n
361
\n00:27:34,400 –> 00:27:36,500
\nas the nation did as an
\nadulterous woman. <\/p>\n
362
\n00:27:37,300 –> 00:27:43,700
\nNo.
\nBut Moses Daniel Ezra Nehemiah <\/p>\n
363
\n00:27:44,100 –> 00:27:46,700
\nunderstood.
\nThis fundamental Doctrine in <\/p>\n
364
\n00:27:46,700 –> 00:27:50,600
\ntheir identification with their
\nBrethren and their problems. <\/p>\n
365
\n00:27:51,900 –> 00:27:54,900
\nHow about David?
\nSecond Samuel. <\/p>\n
366
\n00:28:01,000 –> 00:28:12,500
\nChapter 24.
\nAt the time of the senses when <\/p>\n
367
\n00:28:12,500 –> 00:28:17,100
\nthe nation is being punished.
\nAlthough David no doubt could <\/p>\n
368
\n00:28:17,100 –> 00:28:20,700
\nnot be absolved from Total.
\nBlame careful study. <\/p>\n
369
\n00:28:20,700 –> 00:28:25,600
\nWe Believe shows that he was
\nless blameworthy for a plague <\/p>\n
370
\n00:28:25,600 –> 00:28:28,600
\nthat broke out in the nation
\nthat is sometimes suggested not <\/p>\n
371
\n00:28:28,600 –> 00:28:32,200
\nabsolving, David, totally.
\nHowever, but in the midst of <\/p>\n
372
\n00:28:32,200 –> 00:28:37,700
\nthis punishment and plague, look
\nat David’s petition verse 17. <\/p>\n
373
\n00:28:38,100 –> 00:28:41,600
\nAnd remember what, you know,
\nfrom your readings only in the <\/p>\n
374
\n00:28:41,600 –> 00:28:44,100
\nlast few weeks.
\nRemember what you know about the<\/p>\n
375
\n00:28:44,100 –> 00:28:47,100
\ncondition of is At the time of
\nDavid by Israel. <\/p>\n
376
\n00:28:47,100 –> 00:28:52,200
\nI mean the whole nation over 17
\nand David spake unto Yahweh. <\/p>\n
377
\n00:28:52,200 –> 00:28:57,300
\nWhen he saw the angel that smote
\nthe people said lo, I have <\/p>\n
378
\n00:28:57,300 –> 00:29:03,000
\nsinned and I have done wickedly
\nbut these sheep. <\/p>\n
379
\n00:29:03,600 –> 00:29:06,700
\nWhat have they done?
\nLet thine hand. <\/p>\n
380
\n00:29:06,700 –> 00:29:10,500
\nI pray thee be against me and
\nagainst my father’s house. <\/p>\n
381
\n00:29:11,500 –> 00:29:15,300
\nWhat had the house of the?
\nSon of Jesse done, It was a <\/p>\n
382
\n00:29:15,300 –> 00:29:20,500
\nGodly house David had misjudged
\nand certainly not to be totally <\/p>\n
383
\n00:29:20,500 –> 00:29:22,500
\nabsolved from blame in this
\ncircumstance. <\/p>\n
384
\n00:29:23,400 –> 00:29:26,600
\nBut what of that statement,
\nthese sheep, what have they <\/p>\n
385
\n00:29:26,600 –> 00:29:29,300
\ndone?
\nPlenty David. <\/p>\n
386
\n00:29:30,300 –> 00:29:34,200
\nA study of the time of David
\nthrough the book of second. <\/p>\n
387
\n00:29:34,200 –> 00:29:37,300
\nSamuel or first, Samuel shows us
\na nation. <\/p>\n
388
\n00:29:37,900 –> 00:29:41,400
\nThat was still only partly drawn
\nout of the darkness of the time <\/p>\n
389
\n00:29:41,400 –> 00:29:43,300
\nof the judges.
\nWhen every man did that which <\/p>\n
390
\n00:29:43,300 –> 00:29:48,700
\nwas right in his own eyes, the
\nreforms of Samuel indicate how <\/p>\n
391
\n00:29:48,700 –> 00:29:54,000
\ntwisted and how sick part of
\nthat nation was the response to <\/p>\n
392
\n00:29:54,000 –> 00:29:58,300
\nIsrael as they worked for Saul
\nin part their fickleness the <\/p>\n
393
\n00:29:58,300 –> 00:30:03,300
\nIntrigue that encircle Dave In
\nthe time of his Rebellion all <\/p>\n
394
\n00:30:03,300 –> 00:30:07,000
\nshow that the nation as a whole
\nand the leaders were not to be <\/p>\n
395
\n00:30:07,000 –> 00:30:09,100
\nabsolved from blame by any
\nmeans. <\/p>\n
396
\n00:30:09,600 –> 00:30:15,300
\nBut David views them as sheep.
\nThat’s the great Shepherd. <\/p>\n
397
\n00:30:16,200 –> 00:30:19,600
\nThat’s the greatness of David.
\nIt’s the greatness of Daniel and<\/p>\n
398
\n00:30:19,600 –> 00:30:21,800
\nMoses.
\nHe viewed them as sheep. <\/p>\n
399
\n00:30:22,600 –> 00:30:24,200
\nThe Sheep.
\nWhat have they done? <\/p>\n
400
\n00:30:25,000 –> 00:30:28,400
\nWell, they had done plenty.
\nBut that attitude of Mind, was <\/p>\n
401
\n00:30:28,400 –> 00:30:31,100
\nthat of Daniel and his prayer.
\nR and the others that we’ve <\/p>\n
402
\n00:30:31,100 –> 00:30:33,500
\nseen.
\nLook at the Apostle Paul. <\/p>\n
403
\n00:30:33,500 –> 00:30:38,800
\nAnd speaking about Israel, the
\nsame object the same Nation as <\/p>\n
404
\n00:30:38,800 –> 00:30:42,700
\nthe prayer of Daniel and see
\nwhat Paul says in Romans. <\/p>\n
405
\n00:30:45,400 –> 00:30:49,500
\nSee how typical this is.
\nOf the attitude of great <\/p>\n
406
\n00:30:49,500 –> 00:30:55,800
\nshepherds in the Bible.
\nRomans chapter 9. <\/p>\n
407
\n00:31:03,100 –> 00:31:07,700
\nVerse 1 I say the truth in
\nChrist, I lie not my conscience.<\/p>\n
408
\n00:31:07,700 –> 00:31:11,500
\nAlso bearing me witness in the
\nholy spirit that I have great <\/p>\n
409
\n00:31:11,500 –> 00:31:15,100
\nheaviness and continual sorrow
\nin my heart. <\/p>\n
410
\n00:31:16,500 –> 00:31:21,900
\nFor, I wish that myself were
\naccursed from Christ for my <\/p>\n
411
\n00:31:21,900 –> 00:31:26,400
\nbrethren, my Kinsmen, according
\nto the flesh. <\/p>\n
412
\n00:31:28,500 –> 00:31:31,200
\nThis was a nation that had
\ncrucified their Messiah. <\/p>\n
413
\n00:31:32,200 –> 00:31:35,800
\nThis is a nation that up to this
\npoint when he penned the epistle<\/p>\n
414
\n00:31:35,800 –> 00:31:39,300
\nto the Romans had been
\ncontinually stubborn and <\/p>\n
415
\n00:31:39,300 –> 00:31:43,200
\nhard-hearted, it was a
\ndenomination that really <\/p>\n
416
\n00:31:43,200 –> 00:31:45,200
\ndeserve.
\nNot Mercy from the human point <\/p>\n
417
\n00:31:45,200 –> 00:31:49,700
\nof view, they had been given
\ntheir chants Messiah had walked <\/p>\n
418
\n00:31:49,700 –> 00:31:53,200
\nin their midst.
\nThey had with cruel hands <\/p>\n
419
\n00:31:53,200 –> 00:31:57,200
\ncrucified him, they had dealt in
\nthe same way. <\/p>\n
420
\n00:31:57,900 –> 00:32:02,200
\nWith the early Ecclesia, they
\nhad expelled the faithful and <\/p>\n
421
\n00:32:02,200 –> 00:32:05,300
\ncontinue the work of the Apostle
\nPaul through other bloody hands <\/p>\n
422
\n00:32:06,200 –> 00:32:10,700
\nwas this a nation that deserved
\ncontinual sorrow and grief was <\/p>\n
423
\n00:32:10,700 –> 00:32:14,200
\nthis a nation that deserved to
\nstill be called my brethren, <\/p>\n
424
\n00:32:14,200 –> 00:32:15,500
\nthough?
\nThey were still Brethren only <\/p>\n
425
\n00:32:15,500 –> 00:32:19,300
\nafter the flesh.
\nWas this, a nation that you and <\/p>\n
426
\n00:32:19,600 –> 00:32:24,500
\nothers and myself at this point
\nin the New Testament times would<\/p>\n
427
\n00:32:24,500 –> 00:32:27,200
\nhave stood up and prayed that
\nyou should. <\/p>\n
428
\n00:32:27,400 –> 00:32:30,800
\nBe accursed.
\nWould you have said that with <\/p>\n
429
\n00:32:30,800 –> 00:32:34,400
\nsincerity?
\nI could wish that myself were <\/p>\n
430
\n00:32:34,400 –> 00:32:37,900
\naccursed from Christ.
\nWould you put yourself in that <\/p>\n
431
\n00:32:37,900 –> 00:32:41,200
\nspot willing to sacrifice
\nyourself for that? <\/p>\n
432
\n00:32:41,200 –> 00:32:49,000
\nKind of people would you Most of
\nus would buy that point in New <\/p>\n
433
\n00:32:49,000 –> 00:32:54,600
\nTestament times, have said let
\nthem be disfellowship them, <\/p>\n
434
\n00:32:54,600 –> 00:32:58,200
\nwrite them off, forget about
\nthem, we would have perhaps <\/p>\n
435
\n00:32:58,200 –> 00:33:02,500
\ndrawn, our coats around us as it
\nwere and kept her distance, <\/p>\n
436
\n00:33:03,000 –> 00:33:08,800
\nshaking her head in disgust
\npointed the finger and left <\/p>\n
437
\n00:33:08,800 –> 00:33:11,800
\nthem.
\nWe would have said, patience <\/p>\n
438
\n00:33:12,000 –> 00:33:14,600
\nruns out.
\nWe would have said they’ve had a<\/p>\n
439
\n00:33:14,608 –> 00:33:15,500
\nchance.
\nMany. <\/p>\n
440
\n00:33:15,700 –> 00:33:18,300
\nChances.
\nWe would have said perhaps that <\/p>\n
441
\n00:33:18,300 –> 00:33:23,500
\nwe’re past Seventy Times Seven.
\nIsrael deserves, no such concern<\/p>\n
442
\n00:33:23,500 –> 00:33:27,700
\nand such love still.
\nBut in the Apostle, Paul’s <\/p>\n
443
\n00:33:27,700 –> 00:33:32,100
\nvowels there was such Mercy.
\nThere still was such a yearning <\/p>\n
444
\n00:33:32,700 –> 00:33:34,800
\nstill.
\nSuch concern for the rebellious <\/p>\n
445
\n00:33:34,800 –> 00:33:40,000
\nNation with such a morbid track
\nrecord even going right back to <\/p>\n
446
\n00:33:40,000 –> 00:33:42,700
\nthe days of Daniel as he could
\nhave to our days as we look in <\/p>\n
447
\n00:33:42,708 –> 00:33:49,000
\nthis study, that’s the mark of a
\nshepherd. that is a true <\/p>\n
448
\n00:33:49,000 –> 00:33:53,000
\nChristian delphian that is one
\nwho truly understands, what that<\/p>\n
449
\n00:33:53,000 –> 00:33:57,600
\nname stands for Brethren of
\nChrist for, that’s the Crusade <\/p>\n
450
\n00:33:57,600 –> 00:34:00,800
\ndelphian who doesn’t
\ndisassociate himself from the <\/p>\n
451
\n00:34:00,800 –> 00:34:04,900
\nbody when he looks at it closely
\nand sees this the problems <\/p>\n
452
\n00:34:06,400 –> 00:34:09,000
\nThat’s not the attitude that
\nsays I will form a new <\/p>\n
453
\n00:34:09,000 –> 00:34:11,500
\nFellowship.
\nI will split the meeting. <\/p>\n
454
\n00:34:11,900 –> 00:34:14,600
\nI will walk out of the arranging
\nmeaning because I can’t have it <\/p>\n
455
\n00:34:14,600 –> 00:34:18,000
\nmy way.
\nThat’s not the Chrissa Delphine <\/p>\n
456
\n00:34:18,000 –> 00:34:21,000
\narranging board.
\nThat says, because there is <\/p>\n
457
\n00:34:21,000 –> 00:34:26,000
\nsickness in the body, I will
\ndisassociate myself from it, I <\/p>\n
458
\n00:34:26,000 –> 00:34:29,100
\nwill walk off and form a
\nreclusive. <\/p>\n
459
\n00:34:29,400 –> 00:34:33,600
\nSecretive were formed a small
\ngroup to keep myself from the <\/p>\n
460
\n00:34:33,600 –> 00:34:38,400
\nsins of the people.
\nThat mentality is becoming more <\/p>\n
461
\n00:34:38,400 –> 00:34:41,199
\nand more prominent in our
\ncommunity and only in the last <\/p>\n
462
\n00:34:41,199 –> 00:34:45,300
\nfew months on this continent.
\nWe have seen a rather sad case <\/p>\n
463
\n00:34:45,300 –> 00:34:48,800
\nof it.
\nAs one member of our community, <\/p>\n
464
\n00:34:49,300 –> 00:34:53,300
\nI say member, I mean, achalasia
\nhas been afflicted by that, very<\/p>\n
465
\n00:34:53,300 –> 00:34:56,900
\nkind of mentality.
\nIn contrast to these examples <\/p>\n
466
\n00:34:56,900 –> 00:35:01,300
\nwere just considering, don’t
\nthink as we should not think <\/p>\n
467
\n00:35:01,800 –> 00:35:04,900
\nthat the attitude of that
\nparticular geographic location <\/p>\n
468
\n00:35:04,900 –> 00:35:10,600
\non this continent is a typical.
\nBecause things said at arranging<\/p>\n
469
\n00:35:10,600 –> 00:35:14,400
\nboard meetings and things said
\nin general conversation between <\/p>\n
470
\n00:35:14,400 –> 00:35:18,700
\nchristadelphians, often are
\nmiles from this attitude. <\/p>\n
471
\n00:35:20,000 –> 00:35:25,100
\nIt is too often our reflex in
\nour own thinking and our own <\/p>\n
472
\n00:35:25,100 –> 00:35:27,500
\nattitude.
\nWhen we meet problems in our <\/p>\n
473
\n00:35:27,500 –> 00:35:32,900
\nbody to take an attitude that is
\ndiametrically opposite from the <\/p>\n
474
\n00:35:32,900 –> 00:35:35,200
\nattitudes expressed by these
\nShepherds of Israel. <\/p>\n
475
\n00:35:35,500 –> 00:35:39,800
\nThese true Shepherds of Israel,
\nwe read them and we admire them <\/p>\n
476
\n00:35:40,200 –> 00:35:42,800
\nand we perhaps applaud their
\nGrace and the goodness and the <\/p>\n
477
\n00:35:42,800 –> 00:35:45,900
\nsentiments of their prayers.
\nBut that means nothing. <\/p>\n
478
\n00:35:45,900 –> 00:35:48,900
\nBrothers and sisters if and are
\narranging meetings. <\/p>\n
479
\n00:35:49,300 –> 00:35:50,800
\nIn our discussion of the
\nproblems. <\/p>\n
480
\n00:35:50,800 –> 00:35:56,600
\nIn our bodies, Our words and
\nthinking, and our actions betray<\/p>\n
481
\n00:35:56,600 –> 00:35:59,600
\nit.
\nIt’s a fact as we look at The <\/p>\n
482
\n00:35:59,600 –> 00:36:02,800
\nParables of the master in
\nMatthew and Luke, especially <\/p>\n
483
\n00:36:03,600 –> 00:36:06,900
\nthat as we analyze them.
\nAnd ask the question, what is <\/p>\n
484
\n00:36:06,900 –> 00:36:09,700
\nbeing implied by these Parables
\nabout the unforgiving? <\/p>\n
485
\n00:36:09,700 –> 00:36:12,300
\nServant and many others?
\nLike them, like the Good <\/p>\n
486
\n00:36:12,300 –> 00:36:14,800
\nSamaritan.
\nWhat’s being implied about human<\/p>\n
487
\n00:36:14,800 –> 00:36:17,600
\nnature?
\nWhy is the Lord stressing the <\/p>\n
488
\n00:36:17,600 –> 00:36:19,300
\nneed to be a good samaritan?
\nIan. <\/p>\n
489
\n00:36:20,000 –> 00:36:24,500
\nWhy is he stressing the parable
\nof the unforgiving servant for <\/p>\n
490
\n00:36:24,500 –> 00:36:26,900
\nwhat is the master saying about
\nhuman nature? <\/p>\n
491
\n00:36:27,900 –> 00:36:31,500
\nIs he saying that we are
\nnaturally more patient than <\/p>\n
492
\n00:36:31,500 –> 00:36:34,800
\nimpatient?
\nIs he saying that we are more <\/p>\n
493
\n00:36:34,800 –> 00:36:38,700
\nnaturally inclined to
\nforbearance and longsuffering <\/p>\n
494
\n00:36:39,300 –> 00:36:44,500
\nthan we are to a lack of it.
\nThose parables are telling us <\/p>\n
495
\n00:36:44,500 –> 00:36:48,900
\nsomething implicitly about the
\nLord’s concern concerning for. <\/p>\n
496
\n00:36:49,100 –> 00:36:53,300
\nDolphins, he’s telling us.
\nThat patients doesn’t naturally <\/p>\n
497
\n00:36:53,400 –> 00:36:58,000
\ncome to the body of Christ.
\nHe’s implying that people are <\/p>\n
498
\n00:36:58,000 –> 00:37:01,100
\nnot naturally as
\nchristadelphians and Servants of<\/p>\n
499
\n00:37:01,100 –> 00:37:06,700
\nGod for bearing, he is telling
\nus that we need the excitation <\/p>\n
500
\n00:37:06,700 –> 00:37:11,400
\nalong those lines, especially
\nNow perhaps you’re thinking, <\/p>\n
501
\n00:37:11,400 –> 00:37:13,000
\nwell, what’s the implication
\nhere? <\/p>\n
502
\n00:37:13,700 –> 00:37:17,600
\nIs this an excitation to over
\ntolerance is it’s an excitation <\/p>\n
503
\n00:37:17,600 –> 00:37:20,400
\nto turn a blind eye to
\nimperfections and problems in <\/p>\n
504
\n00:37:20,408 –> 00:37:24,000
\nthe body is this an excitation
\nfor every man to do that which <\/p>\n
505
\n00:37:24,000 –> 00:37:28,900
\nis right in his own eyes.
\nIt is not, it is not a matter of<\/p>\n
506
\n00:37:28,900 –> 00:37:32,100
\nTolerance.
\nIt’s a matter of working with <\/p>\n
507
\n00:37:32,100 –> 00:37:35,000
\nthe problem doing something
\nabout it. <\/p>\n
508
\n00:37:36,300 –> 00:37:38,100
\nIt’s not a matter of writing
\nletters about it. <\/p>\n
509
\n00:37:38,700 –> 00:37:41,600
\nIt’s not a matter of pointing
\nfingers and phoning people up. <\/p>\n
510
\n00:37:42,200 –> 00:37:45,300
\nIt’s not a matter of standing in
\nthe corner and talking about, <\/p>\n
511
\n00:37:45,300 –> 00:37:50,200
\nthey the Vancouver, Ecclesia,
\nthe Scarlet, Road, Ecclesia the <\/p>\n

\n00:37:55,200 –> 00:37:58,500
\nthe CMP, a and all the other
\ncatch phrases, which we use in <\/p>\n
514
\n00:37:58,508 –> 00:38:02,400
\nsuch dialogues.
\nIt’s not talking about they with<\/p>\n
515
\n00:38:02,400 –> 00:38:04,800
\na label on them, with an
\nabstraction. <\/p>\n
516
\n00:38:05,700 –> 00:38:08,600
\nIt’s talking about those
\nproblems, not turning a blind <\/p>\n
517
\n00:38:08,600 –> 00:38:16,600
\neye to them, as part of we it’s
\nus, it’s my body, it’s my <\/p>\n
518
\n00:38:16,600 –> 00:38:22,000
\nbrother. you see the vein
\nbetrays, the very opposite <\/p>\n
519
\n00:38:22,400 –> 00:38:26,600
\ndisposition of what we see in
\nthese prayers and when we use <\/p>\n
520
\n00:38:26,600 –> 00:38:30,100
\nthese fabricated labels for the
\nsake of convenience in our <\/p>\n
521
\n00:38:30,100 –> 00:38:35,600
\ndialogues and in our writings,
\nIf that is part of our real <\/p>\n
522
\n00:38:35,600 –> 00:38:40,200
\nThinking Inside and we think
\nthat these Brethren is chips off<\/p>\n
523
\n00:38:40,200 –> 00:38:43,000
\nof the body as segregated
\ndepartments. <\/p>\n
524
\n00:38:43,800 –> 00:38:47,500
\nThen without us knowing it,
\nperhaps we take the mental, <\/p>\n
525
\n00:38:47,500 –> 00:38:50,700
\ninternal posture of the men in
\nthe parable. <\/p>\n
526

\nWho says I, thank the God that I
\nam not as other men. <\/p>\n

\ncultivating.
\nThe disposition of Danny. <\/p>\n
531
\n00:39:10,700 –> 00:39:14,300
\nIt’s easy to go through that
\nprayer and be so admiring of the<\/p>\n
532
\n00:39:14,300 –> 00:39:18,600
\ncontents of his outpouring.
\nWhat what does that mean to you?<\/p>\n
533
\n00:39:18,600 –> 00:39:22,600
\nAnd I, what does it mean in
\nterms of the disposition you and<\/p>\n
534
\n00:39:22,600 –> 00:39:25,200
\nI have got to develop in our
\necclesial affairs? <\/p>\n
535
\n00:39:26,800 –> 00:39:30,300
\nWe are to see the problems.
\nWe are not to use rose. <\/p>\n
536
\n00:39:30,300 –> 00:39:34,300
\nColored glasses are not to see
\nthrough Darkness. <\/p>\n
537
\n00:39:34,600 –> 00:39:37,100
\nWe are to identify the problems
\nof the body. <\/p>\n
538
\n00:39:37,100 –> 00:39:40,700
\nWe are to know that they are.
\nThere we are to cultivate <\/p>\n
539
\n00:39:40,700 –> 00:39:44,200
\nspiritual Godly discernment to
\nknow, good and wrong. <\/p>\n

\nWe are to recognize the disease
\nwhen its present, and not <\/p>\n
541
\n00:39:48,300 –> 00:39:52,600
\nturning back from it.
\nBut we are to address the <\/p>\n
542
\n00:39:52,600 –> 00:39:56,700
\ndisease, we are to do something
\nabout the sickness. <\/p>\n
543
\n00:39:57,200 –> 00:40:01,400
\nWe are to do something about the
\nwounds and the broken body that <\/p>\n
544
\n00:40:01,400 –> 00:40:06,100
\nwe might see in our Ecclesia and
\nin the community at large, not <\/p>\n
545
\n00:40:06,100 –> 00:40:10,000
\nto write letters necessarily
\nabout it and not simply at a <\/p>\n
546
\n00:40:10,008 –> 00:40:12,600
\ndistance to describe the
\nproblem. <\/p>\n
547
\n00:40:13,300 –> 00:40:16,500
\nNow, there’s many ways we can do
\nit communication with bragging <\/p>\n
548
\n00:40:16,700 –> 00:40:20,100
\ndoes have its part communicating
\nand writing back and forth. <\/p>\n
549
\n00:40:20,600 –> 00:40:25,400
\nFor a Positive Purpose has its
\npart providing our motive is <\/p>\n
550
\n00:40:25,400 –> 00:40:29,300
\nright and our method is right
\nand providing of course that <\/p>\n
551
\n00:40:29,300 –> 00:40:35,200
\nwhat we are doing for sure is
\ngoing to pour oil and wine as <\/p>\n
552
\n00:40:35,200 –> 00:40:38,200
\nthe Good Samaritan did on The
\nAfflicted body. <\/p>\n
553
\n00:40:39,100 –> 00:40:44,000
\nLet us measure our methods and
\nevaluate what we’re doing in the<\/p>\n
554
\n00:40:44,000 –> 00:40:48,200
\nway we’re doing it only you know
\nthe motives I can’t judge. <\/p>\n
555
\n00:40:48,200 –> 00:40:52,100
\nYou can’t judge me, of course.
\nSo it’s not an excitation to <\/p>\n
556
\n00:40:52,100 –> 00:40:55,100
\ntolerance or to spiritual
\nblindness. <\/p>\n
557
\n00:40:55,900 –> 00:41:00,100
\nIt’s not a matter of letting
\nanything go in the Ecclesia but <\/p>\n
558
\n00:41:00,200 –> 00:41:05,000
\nit’s an excitation to patience
\nand long-suffering turn to the <\/p>\n
559
\n00:41:05,000 –> 00:41:13,900
\nlast chapter of Chronicles.
\nThis is the meat of Daniel’s <\/p>\n
560
\n00:41:13,900 –> 00:41:19,800
\nprayer, if we don’t capture all
\nthe other details and we do <\/p>\n
561
\n00:41:19,800 –> 00:41:22,600
\ncapture this.
\nWe’ve captured something very <\/p>\n
562
\n00:41:22,600 –> 00:41:28,800
\ntangible.
\nSecond Chronicles chapter, 36. <\/p>\n
563
\n00:41:28,800 –> 00:41:32,200
\nThe very last chapter of the
\nbook of Chronicles and this is <\/p>\n
564
\n00:41:32,200 –> 00:41:34,300
\nnot divorced from the study of
\nDaniel. <\/p>\n
565
\n00:41:34,400 –> 00:41:40,300
\nIt’s pertinent because this is
\nthe beginning of the end before.<\/p>\n
566
\n00:41:40,300 –> 00:41:44,300
\nThe people were taken to Babylon
\nthe situation which Daniel later<\/p>\n
567
\n00:41:44,300 –> 00:41:47,200
\nfound himself.
\nWhen Daniel Prayed for the <\/p>\n
568
\n00:41:47,200 –> 00:41:51,200
\nfathers and the Forgiveness of
\nhis Nation when he admitted <\/p>\n
569
\n00:41:51,200 –> 00:41:53,200
\ntheir transgressions in their
\niniquities. <\/p>\n
570
\n00:41:54,400 –> 00:41:57,200
\nHe was referring back to this
\nkind of language and second <\/p>\n
571
\n00:41:57,200 –> 00:42:00,500
\nchronicles 36.
\nHere’s a Nebuchadnezzar coming <\/p>\n
572
\n00:42:00,500 –> 00:42:05,100
\ndown in verse 13 and he also
\nrebelled against King <\/p>\n
573
\n00:42:05,100 –> 00:42:09,100
\nNebuchadnezzar.
\nWho had made him swear by God. <\/p>\n
574
\n00:42:10,000 –> 00:42:14,600
\nBut he stiffened his neck and
\nhardened his heart from turning <\/p>\n
575
\n00:42:14,600 –> 00:42:18,100
\nonto the Lord, God of Israel.
\nMoreover, all the chief of the <\/p>\n
576
\n00:42:18,100 –> 00:42:22,400
\npriests and the people
\ntransgress very much. <\/p>\n
577
\n00:42:22,800 –> 00:42:26,000
\nAfter all the Abominations of
\nthe Heathen and polluted the <\/p>\n
578
\n00:42:26,000 –> 00:42:28,500
\nhouse of the Lord, which he had
\nHoward in Jerusalem. <\/p>\n
579
\n00:42:29,000 –> 00:42:32,900
\nThe Lord God of their fathers
\nsent to them by his Messengers. <\/p>\n
580
\n00:42:32,900 –> 00:42:37,600
\nRising up, betimes means early
\nand often and and sending <\/p>\n
581
\n00:42:37,600 –> 00:42:40,900
\nbecause he had compassion on his
\npeople and on his Dwelling <\/p>\n
582
\n00:42:40,900 –> 00:42:44,600
\nPlace, How long did God do that?
\nBrothers and sisters? <\/p>\n
583
\n00:42:46,300 –> 00:42:49,000
\nFor a good number of years.
\nIt goes into the hundreds. <\/p>\n
584
\n00:42:50,000 –> 00:42:53,400
\nIt was over the course of
\nhundreds of years that God <\/p>\n
585
\n00:42:53,400 –> 00:42:56,300
\nraised up the prophets, the
\nperiod of the Kings, and the <\/p>\n
586
\n00:42:56,308 –> 00:42:59,100
\nperiod of what we call the
\nprophets covers hundreds of <\/p>\n
587
\n00:42:59,100 –> 00:43:02,400
\nyears.
\nGod was patient, God was <\/p>\n
588
\n00:43:02,400 –> 00:43:06,400
\nlong-suffering but see God as
\nthe example. <\/p>\n
589
\n00:43:07,300 –> 00:43:10,000
\nIt’s not that he turned his back
\non the sins of his people or <\/p>\n
590
\n00:43:10,000 –> 00:43:14,300
\ntolerated them.
\nBut in seeing them, he did his <\/p>\n
591
\n00:43:14,300 –> 00:43:17,400
\nbest.
\nGod did to work with the nation.<\/p>\n
592
\n00:43:17,600 –> 00:43:21,800
\nHe did something about it.
\nHe Sent His prophets Heroes them<\/p>\n
593
\n00:43:21,800 –> 00:43:26,900
\nup early and frequently and he
\nhad compassion on his people, <\/p>\n
594
\n00:43:26,900 –> 00:43:32,000
\nhis Brethren, but verse 16, the
\nrecalcitrant attitude of the <\/p>\n
595
\n00:43:32,000 –> 00:43:35,400
\nhard-hearted nation.
\nBut they mocked The Messengers <\/p>\n
596
\n00:43:35,400 –> 00:43:40,200
\nof God and despised his words
\nand misused His prophets until <\/p>\n
597
\n00:43:40,200 –> 00:43:43,200
\nthe wrath of Yahweh arose
\nagainst his people. <\/p>\n
598
\n00:43:44,000 –> 00:43:49,700
\nTo there was no remedy margin,
\nnotice it. <\/p>\n
599
\n00:43:51,000 –> 00:43:55,300
\nTiller was no healing.
\nTill there was no healing. <\/p>\n
600
\n00:43:56,100 –> 00:43:58,000
\nIt’s the language of
\npersonification. <\/p>\n
601
\n00:43:58,800 –> 00:44:01,500
\nWhat is implied by that
\nfigurative speech until there <\/p>\n
602
\n00:44:01,500 –> 00:44:04,600
\nwas no healing?
\nIt implies sickness. <\/p>\n
603
\n00:44:05,300 –> 00:44:08,000
\nHow do you describe sickness
\nabout a group of people that are<\/p>\n
604
\n00:44:08,000 –> 00:44:11,300
\na nation?
\nOnly on the basis of one <\/p>\n
605
\n00:44:11,300 –> 00:44:14,300
\nFundamental Bible Doctrine.
\nAnd that is the Vaught the <\/p>\n
606
\n00:44:14,300 –> 00:44:19,000
\ndoctrine of the body.
\nIt views, the nation of Israel <\/p>\n
607
\n00:44:19,200 –> 00:44:24,500
\nJudah as a body and they were
\nsick and God by sending his <\/p>\n
608
\n00:44:24,500 –> 00:44:27,700
\nprofits and doing what he could
\nand rising up early. <\/p>\n
609
\n00:44:27,800 –> 00:44:31,500
\nAnd having compassion on them
\nwas really showing the parable <\/p>\n
610
\n00:44:31,500 –> 00:44:36,700
\nof the Good Samaritan for.
\nHe poured wine oil out to them <\/p>\n
611
\n00:44:37,100 –> 00:44:39,600
\nthrough the words of the
\nprophets he desired. <\/p>\n
612
\n00:44:39,700 –> 00:44:43,500
\nTo effect a remedy.
\nAnd after six months, he didn’t <\/p>\n
613
\n00:44:43,500 –> 00:44:47,000
\ncome to his fellow profit To His
\nprophets and tell them to <\/p>\n
614
\n00:44:47,000 –> 00:44:50,600
\nextinguish the nation.
\nGod laboured for hundreds of <\/p>\n
615
\n00:44:50,600 –> 00:44:54,800
\nyears with a sick body.
\nLook at the language of Isaiah, <\/p>\n
616
\n00:44:55,600 –> 00:45:01,000
\nchapter 1.
\nThis is the nation in the days <\/p>\n
617
\n00:45:01,000 –> 00:45:05,700
\nof Hezekiah.
\nHow does it describe the nation?<\/p>\n
618
\n00:45:08,600 –> 00:45:11,000
\nThe prophet describes it in
\nlurid details? <\/p>\n
619
\n00:45:13,900 –> 00:45:19,100
\nIsaiah chapter 1.
\nAppealing to Israel in verse 2 <\/p>\n
620
\n00:45:19,100 –> 00:45:24,100
\nin the language of Deuteronomy.
\nHear o heavens and give ear o <\/p>\n
621
\n00:45:24,100 –> 00:45:28,900
\nEarth for the Lord hath spoken.
\nI have nourished and brought up <\/p>\n
622
\n00:45:28,900 –> 00:45:31,900
\nchildren, look at how God views
\nhis people. <\/p>\n
623
\n00:45:31,900 –> 00:45:33,500
\nIt’s the language of David,
\nisn’t it? <\/p>\n
624
\n00:45:33,500 –> 00:45:35,500
\nThese poor sheep.
\nWhat have they done? <\/p>\n
625
\n00:45:36,200 –> 00:45:39,500
\nI have nourished and brought up
\nchildren and they have rebelled <\/p>\n
626
\n00:45:39,500 –> 00:45:42,300
\nagainst me.
\nGod’s position is that of a <\/p>\n
627
\n00:45:42,300 –> 00:45:46,000
\nfather?
\nA parent they are viewed as <\/p>\n
628
\n00:45:46,000 –> 00:45:50,700
\nchildren.
\nThen first for all, sinful <\/p>\n
629
\n00:45:50,700 –> 00:45:56,100
\nNation, a people Laden with
\niniquity a seed of evildoers <\/p>\n
630
\n00:45:56,100 –> 00:45:59,300
\nchildren that are corrupters.
\nThey have forsaken, the Lord, <\/p>\n
631
\n00:45:59,400 –> 00:46:01,500
\nthey have provoked.
\nThe Holy One of Israel on to <\/p>\n
632
\n00:46:01,500 –> 00:46:03,900
\nanger.
\nThey are gone away backward. <\/p>\n
633
\n00:46:04,500 –> 00:46:09,000
\nNow, the language of the body
\nthat sick verse 5, why should <\/p>\n
634
\n00:46:09,000 –> 00:46:12,900
\nyou be stricken anymore?
\nYe will Revolt more and more. <\/p>\n
635
\n00:46:12,900 –> 00:46:17,300
\nThe whole head is sick and the
\nwhole heart is faint. <\/p>\n
636
\n00:46:17,900 –> 00:46:20,700
\nFrom the sole of the foot.
\nEven unto the head. <\/p>\n
637
\n00:46:20,700 –> 00:46:24,300
\nThere is no soundness in it.
\nBut wounds and bruises and <\/p>\n
638
\n00:46:24,300 –> 00:46:27,700
\nputrefying sores.
\nThey have not been closed. <\/p>\n
639
\n00:46:27,700 –> 00:46:30,300
\nNeither bound up nor mollified
\nwith ointment. <\/p>\n
640
\n00:46:30,400 –> 00:46:33,900
\nBy the way, there’s the Old
\nTestament, Good Samaritan. <\/p>\n
641
\n00:46:34,400 –> 00:46:36,600
\nThat’s the language of the Good
\nSamaritan for which that <\/p>\n
642
\n00:46:36,600 –> 00:46:38,700
\nParable.
\nNo doubt is drawn in part. <\/p>\n
643
\n00:46:39,400 –> 00:46:43,500
\nThat is the nation.
\nThat is sick from head to foot <\/p>\n
644
\n00:46:44,400 –> 00:46:47,000
\nyet, still in the days of
\nHezekiah, God, Sent His <\/p>\n
645
\n00:46:47,000 –> 00:46:49,500
\nprophets.
\nAnd it wasn’t until the days of <\/p>\n
646
\n00:46:49,500 –> 00:46:53,700
\nzedekiah in second chronicles 36
\nwhich we just read that <\/p>\n
647
\n00:46:53,700 –> 00:46:57,700
\ndescribed the nation as having
\nreally now no remedy for their <\/p>\n
648
\n00:46:57,700 –> 00:47:02,300
\nhealing and still many years
\nwere to pass from these days. <\/p>\n
649
\n00:47:02,400 –> 00:47:07,000
\nMany years were to pass from
\nthese days and even then, when <\/p>\n
650
\n00:47:07,000 –> 00:47:10,700
\nGod took them into captivity
\nwith Daniel, there were still <\/p>\n
651
\n00:47:10,700 –> 00:47:16,900
\nDaniels praying for that Nation.
\nThere is the true Shepherd <\/p>\n
652
\n00:47:18,000 –> 00:47:22,500
\ndespite such a morbid condition.
\nThere is the god. <\/p>\n
653
\n00:47:22,500 –> 00:47:27,000
\nWho is patient with the patient?
\nIt is true. <\/p>\n
654
\n00:47:27,000 –> 00:47:31,000
\nI believe brothers and sisters
\nthat we as christadelphians are <\/p>\n
655
\n00:47:31,000 –> 00:47:34,800
\noften better surgeons than we
\nare nurses or therapists. <\/p>\n
656
\n00:47:36,500 –> 00:47:40,300
\nIt’s true.
\nThere is a greater inclination <\/p>\n
657
\n00:47:40,300 –> 00:47:46,100
\nat times to use the scapula then
\nto use the ointment and the <\/p>\n
658
\n00:47:46,100 –> 00:47:51,200
\ncuring medicine, the one takes
\npatience, the one takes careful <\/p>\n
659
\n00:47:51,200 –> 00:47:56,700
\nand prayerful Administration.
\nThe one that of patients with <\/p>\n
660
\n00:47:56,700 –> 00:48:01,300
\nthe patient requires a
\nwillingness to accept sometimes <\/p>\n
661
\n00:48:01,300 –> 00:48:03,300
\nand Improvement in the
\ntemperature and health of the <\/p>\n
662
\n00:48:03,300 –> 00:48:07,100
\nbody that sick and sometimes the
\ndecline And at times the <\/p>\n
663
\n00:48:07,100 –> 00:48:10,600
\ntemperature of that body and
\nit’s fever will fluctuate up and<\/p>\n
664
\n00:48:10,600 –> 00:48:14,600
\ndown, they will be advances and
\nthey will be regressions. <\/p>\n
665
\n00:48:15,300 –> 00:48:18,400
\nThey’ll be frustrations and
\nworking with such a sick body as<\/p>\n
666
\n00:48:18,400 –> 00:48:21,700
\nthere were no doubt for the
\nfather, for as Isaiah says <\/p>\n
667
\n00:48:21,700 –> 00:48:24,300
\nelsewhere, and all their
\nafflictions. <\/p>\n
668
\n00:48:24,300 –> 00:48:29,600
\nHe was afflicted, he sympathized
\nand he identified with his <\/p>\n
669
\n00:48:29,600 –> 00:48:33,000
\npeople who were his children
\ntalked about them as part of his<\/p>\n
670
\n00:48:33,000 –> 00:48:37,900
\nbody. so, often in our own
\nrelationships with one another, <\/p>\n
671
\n00:48:39,200 –> 00:48:42,800
\nWe are lacking in that kind of
\nforbearance. <\/p>\n
672
\n00:48:43,400 –> 00:48:49,000
\nWe reach for the knife, perhaps
\na little more impulsively than <\/p>\n
673
\n00:48:49,000 –> 00:48:52,900
\nwe do for the bomb and the oil
\nand the wine figuratively <\/p>\n
674
\n00:48:52,900 –> 00:48:57,600
\nspeaking.
\nThe one does tax Us in requires <\/p>\n
675
\n00:48:57,600 –> 00:49:01,100
\nthe attitude of a nurse, the
\nattitude of a nurse. <\/p>\n
676
\n00:49:02,300 –> 00:49:04,700
\nLook at the Apostle Paul and
\ndealing with the first century <\/p>\n
677
\n00:49:06,700 –> 00:49:09,800
\nfor wasn’t long.
\nAfter the Inception of the first<\/p>\n
678
\n00:49:09,800 –> 00:49:13,600
\nEcclesia has that certain types
\nof sickness did creep in, even, <\/p>\n
679
\n00:49:13,600 –> 00:49:15,100
\nin the time of the first
\ncentury. <\/p>\n
680
\n00:49:16,100 –> 00:49:19,900
\nAnd how does Paul view himself
\nin relationship to this body <\/p>\n
681
\n00:49:20,300 –> 00:49:23,900
\nwith all its many needs.
\nWell, first of Thessalonians <\/p>\n
682
\n00:49:23,900 –> 00:49:32,300
\nchapter 2, Verse 1.
\nThis is Daniel this is the real <\/p>\n
683
\n00:49:32,300 –> 00:49:35,600
\nmeaning in practical application
\nof what Daniel prays for. <\/p>\n
684
\n00:49:39,700 –> 00:49:43,900
\nThis is the patient Sheppard.
\nFirst 2 Thessalonians chapter 2.<\/p>\n
685
\n00:49:46,800 –> 00:49:51,800
\nFor yourselves Brethren verse 1
\nknow that our entrance in unto <\/p>\n
686
\n00:49:51,800 –> 00:49:57,200
\nyou that it was not in vain.
\nVerse 34, our excitation was not<\/p>\n
687
\n00:49:57,200 –> 00:50:05,300
\nof Deceit, nor of uncleanness,
\nnor in guile. verse 7, but we <\/p>\n
688
\n00:50:05,300 –> 00:50:13,300
\nwere gentle among you.
\nEven as a nurse, cherish it her <\/p>\n
689
\n00:50:13,300 –> 00:50:21,100
\nchildren a nurse.
\nThe Apostle Paul a nurse. <\/p>\n
690
\n00:50:21,600 –> 00:50:25,100
\nOh, perhaps we view him as a
\nfather, which he was, but a <\/p>\n
691
\n00:50:25,107 –> 00:50:30,600
\nnurse it describes Paul’s
\nattitude to the Sheep like that <\/p>\n
692
\n00:50:30,600 –> 00:50:33,200
\nof David.
\nIt describes the attitude of <\/p>\n
693
\n00:50:33,200 –> 00:50:37,500
\nDaniel who could not only
\nidentify the sicknesses of the <\/p>\n
694
\n00:50:37,500 –> 00:50:40,600
\nbody and the problems that were
\npart of that body to which he <\/p>\n
695
\n00:50:40,600 –> 00:50:45,800
\nbelonged, but it speaks for
\naction in the Ecclesia in the <\/p>\n
696
\n00:50:45,808 –> 00:50:48,800
\ncommunity.
\nAnd for the Jewel. <\/p>\n
697
\n00:50:48,800 –> 00:50:52,000
\nThat we know of, in our
\nequation, our family, the family<\/p>\n
698
\n00:50:52,000 –> 00:50:56,200
\nof Christ, it speaks for action.
\nIt’s not a matter of Simply <\/p>\n
699
\n00:50:56,200 –> 00:51:00,500
\nsitting back and the tolerant
\nway he says, we were gentle as a<\/p>\n
700
\n00:51:00,500 –> 00:51:02,700
\nnurse.
\nBut what does the nurse do <\/p>\n
701
\n00:51:03,400 –> 00:51:07,400
\nhonours administers Care on,
\nnurses patient. <\/p>\n
702
\n00:51:07,900 –> 00:51:10,200
\nAnd a nurse is working with a
\npatient. <\/p>\n
703
\n00:51:11,500 –> 00:51:14,100
\nBut she works.
\nShe nourishes. <\/p>\n
704
\n00:51:14,600 –> 00:51:18,500
\nShe does things positive.
\nShe tries to remedy the problem.<\/p>\n
705
\n00:51:18,500 –> 00:51:22,100
\nShe doesn’t ignore it.
\nShe works with it, but she’s <\/p>\n
706
\n00:51:22,100 –> 00:51:25,900
\npatient.
\nAnd that disposition is the <\/p>\n
707
\n00:51:25,900 –> 00:51:28,500
\ndisposition of the Apostle Paul,
\nwhich he needed. <\/p>\n
708
\n00:51:28,600 –> 00:51:31,700
\nSo very early on, when these
\nequations were established, <\/p>\n
709
\n00:51:32,800 –> 00:51:38,100
\nLet’s go back to the Gospels.
\nThis too, is the attitude of <\/p>\n
710
\n00:51:38,100 –> 00:51:41,600
\nDaniel and it’s part and parcel
\nof the problem. <\/p>\n
711
\n00:51:42,300 –> 00:51:47,400
\nHe dealt with Matthew chapter 9.
\nNow you’ll be surprised to see <\/p>\n
712
\n00:51:47,400 –> 00:51:50,800
\nhow closely, how closely this
\ndoes touch. <\/p>\n
713
\n00:51:50,800 –> 00:51:56,100
\nOn the time of Daniel.
\nMatthew 9. <\/p>\n
714
\n00:52:01,500 –> 00:52:06,700
\nVerse 11.
\nAnd when the Pharisee saw it, <\/p>\n
715
\n00:52:06,700 –> 00:52:10,900
\nthey said unto his disciples.
\nWhy doth your master with <\/p>\n
716
\n00:52:10,900 –> 00:52:16,600
\npublicans and sinners.
\nAnd when Jesus heard that he <\/p>\n
717
\n00:52:16,600 –> 00:52:20,800
\nsaid unto them, they that be
\nwhole need not a physician, but <\/p>\n
718
\n00:52:20,800 –> 00:52:24,700
\nthey that are sick.
\nBut go ye and learn what that <\/p>\n
719
\n00:52:24,700 –> 00:52:26,700
\nmeaneth.
\nI will have mercy and not <\/p>\n
720
\n00:52:26,700 –> 00:52:32,200
\nsacrifice Prime not come to call
\nthe righteous, but the Sinners <\/p>\n
721
\n00:52:32,200 –> 00:52:36,100
\nto repentance you would think
\nsometimes by the response of <\/p>\n
722
\n00:52:36,100 –> 00:52:41,300
\nchristadelphians to potential
\nconverts that such is not the <\/p>\n
723
\n00:52:41,300 –> 00:52:44,200
\ncase that for some potential
\nconverts. <\/p>\n
724
\n00:52:44,200 –> 00:52:47,700
\nThere is no hope that for some
\npotential converts. <\/p>\n
725
\n00:52:48,400 –> 00:52:51,200
\nWe are saying, we’re only
\ncalling the righteous today. <\/p>\n
726
\n00:52:52,200 –> 00:52:56,100
\nWe’re not In The Sims.
\nBut that’s not what the Lord <\/p>\n
727
\n00:52:56,100 –> 00:53:00,000
\ncalls through the gospel.
\nHe calls the Sinners to <\/p>\n
728
\n00:53:00,000 –> 00:53:03,800
\nrepentance, and he describes the
\nnation implicitly, as needing a <\/p>\n
729
\n00:53:03,808 –> 00:53:08,200
\nphysician he describes the
\nnation implicitly as being sick,<\/p>\n
730
\n00:53:08,200 –> 00:53:12,400
\nand not whole and he quotes his
\npoint from Hosea. <\/p>\n
731
\n00:53:14,400 –> 00:53:20,000
\nBack to Hosea.
\nThat’s the Old Testament <\/p>\n
732
\n00:53:20,000 –> 00:53:22,200
\ncontext.
\nThat brings us full circle to <\/p>\n
733
\n00:53:22,200 –> 00:53:27,000
\nDaniel for the condition that
\nDaniel describes in chapter 9 of<\/p>\n
734
\n00:53:27,008 –> 00:53:33,200
\nhis prayer, is the condition
\nthat is spoken of in Hosea. <\/p>\n
735
\n00:53:33,900 –> 00:53:38,200
\nWhen the prophet just prior
\nreally to Daniel, not too far <\/p>\n
736
\n00:53:38,200 –> 00:53:41,400
\nprior to Daniel speaking.
\nAs he was, of course to the <\/p>\n
737
\n00:53:41,500 –> 00:53:45,700
\nnorthern nation in part, as well
\nas Judah spoken warn, the people<\/p>\n
738
\n00:53:45,700 –> 00:53:49,600
\nof these are Some of the words
\nthat’s referred to in Chronicles<\/p>\n
739
\n00:53:50,000 –> 00:53:53,000
\nthat God, rose up, prophets
\nearly and frequently and sent <\/p>\n
740
\n00:53:53,000 –> 00:53:57,100
\nthem to the nation.
\nWhat Daniel praise about as he <\/p>\n
741
\n00:53:57,100 –> 00:54:00,200
\nlooks back into the past of the
\nhistory of his Nation, goes back<\/p>\n
742
\n00:54:00,200 –> 00:54:03,400
\nto the times of Isaiah.
\nNow, before we look at the <\/p>\n
743
\n00:54:03,400 –> 00:54:08,200
\ndirect quotation in context,
\njust go to Hosea 5 and Lead <\/p>\n
744
\n00:54:08,200 –> 00:54:11,200
\ntowards it.
\nLook at how this harmonizes with<\/p>\n
745
\n00:54:11,200 –> 00:54:15,700
\nthe language of Isaiah 1.
\nThe healing mentioned for which <\/p>\n
746
\n00:54:15,700 –> 00:54:19,800
\nthere was no remedy in second
\nchronicles 36 and the sickness <\/p>\n
747
\n00:54:19,800 –> 00:54:24,600
\ndescribed in Daniels prayer,
\nverse 13 of Hosea 5. <\/p>\n
748
\n00:54:24,900 –> 00:54:29,300
\nWhenever IAM saw his sickness
\nand Judah, saw his wound. <\/p>\n
749
\n00:54:29,700 –> 00:54:33,200
\nThen went, if reham to the
\nAssyrian and sent to King <\/p>\n
750
\n00:54:33,200 –> 00:54:40,900
\njeroboam yet, could he not heal
\nyou nor cure you of your wound. <\/p>\n
751
\n00:54:41,100 –> 00:54:43,400
\nIt’s the language of Chronicles,
\nisn’t it for? <\/p>\n
752
\n00:54:43,400 –> 00:54:46,500
\nI will be unto Ephraim as a
\nlion, and as a Young Lion to the<\/p>\n
753
\n00:54:46,500 –> 00:54:50,800
\nhouse of Judah, I even, I will
\ntear and go away. <\/p>\n
754
\n00:54:51,000 –> 00:54:53,200
\nI will take away and None Shall
\nrescue him. <\/p>\n
755
\n00:54:54,000 –> 00:54:58,300
\nVerse 15, I will go and return
\nto my place till they <\/p>\n
756
\n00:54:58,300 –> 00:55:01,700
\nacknowledge their offense and
\nseek my face in their <\/p>\n
757
\n00:55:01,700 –> 00:55:06,400
\nAffliction, will they seek me
\nearly, then comes the call Verse<\/p>\n
758
\n00:55:06,500 –> 00:55:11,300
\n1 of chapter 6.
\nCome and that is returned unto <\/p>\n
759
\n00:55:11,300 –> 00:55:15,400
\nYahweh for he hath torn.
\nRemember what Jesus said <\/p>\n
760
\n00:55:15,400 –> 00:55:19,400
\nincluding Hosea before he said
\nit they that are whole need not <\/p>\n
761
\n00:55:19,400 –> 00:55:22,800
\na physician.
\nThe nation wasn’t whole they <\/p>\n
762
\n00:55:22,800 –> 00:55:29,900
\nwere torn and he will heal us.
\nHe had smitten and he will bind <\/p>\n
763
\n00:55:29,900 –> 00:55:32,800
\nus up.
\nWhat was the language of his <\/p>\n
764
\n00:55:32,800 –> 00:55:36,100
\nquotation to Hosea?
\nI will have mercy and not <\/p>\n
765
\n00:55:36,100 –> 00:55:39,300
\nsacrifice is not what he said
\nnow where did he say that from <\/p>\n
766
\n00:55:40,000 –> 00:55:43,600
\nwill look at down at now at
\nverse 6 here it is in context. <\/p>\n
767
\n00:55:44,000 –> 00:55:46,800
\nThis is what Jesus quotes to the
\nnation and to the leaders. <\/p>\n
768
\n00:55:47,200 –> 00:55:51,900
\nVerse 64, I desired mercy and
\nnot sacrifice and the knowledge <\/p>\n
769
\n00:55:51,900 –> 00:55:53,600
\nof God, more than burnt
\nofferings. <\/p>\n
770
\n00:55:53,900 –> 00:55:56,900
\nBut they like men have
\ntransgressed the Covenant <\/p>\n
771
\n00:55:56,900 –> 00:56:00,900
\nlanguage of Annual there, have
\nthey dealt treacherously against<\/p>\n
772
\n00:56:00,900 –> 00:56:03,500
\nme?
\nYou see the Lord quotes and <\/p>\n
773
\n00:56:03,500 –> 00:56:07,400
\ncontext by telling them to go
\nback and read what it mean? <\/p>\n
774
\n00:56:07,400 –> 00:56:10,800
\nIf from Hosea, doesn’t just mean
\nto go back and read Hosea six <\/p>\n
775
\n00:56:10,800 –> 00:56:16,200
\nand six the context of that
\nwhole passage shows the nation <\/p>\n
776
\n00:56:16,400 –> 00:56:23,200
\nsick, torn, broken, Afflicted
\nand in need of healing in need <\/p>\n
777
\n00:56:23,600 –> 00:56:27,100
\nof Mercy.
\nAnd thus his rebuke to the <\/p>\n
778
\n00:56:27,100 –> 00:56:30,500
\nPharisees who thought that they
\nwere above all, that an <\/p>\n
779
\n00:56:30,508 –> 00:56:33,200
\nUntouched by it is ever so
\npertinent. <\/p>\n
780
\n00:56:33,800 –> 00:56:36,400
\nFinally, let’s go back to Daniel
\nand close. <\/p>\n
781
\n00:56:36,400 –> 00:56:40,400
\nThere we said that we are not
\ngoing to analyze. <\/p>\n
782
\n00:56:40,400 –> 00:56:44,200
\nWe can’t analyze all of the
\nthemes that run through Daniels <\/p>\n
783
\n00:56:44,200 –> 00:56:48,200
\nprayer.
\nBut this surely is one of the <\/p>\n
784
\n00:56:48,200 –> 00:56:52,100
\nmost pertinent to our community
\nin these days and to ourselves <\/p>\n
785
\n00:56:52,100 –> 00:56:55,600
\nas disciples.
\nIt’s comforting to see verse 20 <\/p>\n
786
\n00:56:55,600 –> 00:56:58,100
\nof Daniel 9 as we close brothers
\nand sisters. <\/p>\n
787
\n00:57:01,300 –> 00:57:05,500
\nDaniel 9 verse 20.
\nWhilst I was speaking and <\/p>\n
788
\n00:57:05,500 –> 00:57:09,400
\npraying and confessing my sin
\nand the sin of My People, <\/p>\n
789
\n00:57:09,400 –> 00:57:13,100
\nIsrael, and presenting my
\nsupplication before the Lord, my<\/p>\n
790
\n00:57:13,100 –> 00:57:15,400
\nGod for the Holy Mountain of my
\nGod. <\/p>\n
791
\n00:57:15,400 –> 00:57:18,200
\nYay!
\nWhilst I was speaking in prayer,<\/p>\n
792
\n00:57:19,100 –> 00:57:23,200
\neven the man Gabriel whom I had
\nseen in the vision at the <\/p>\n
793
\n00:57:23,207 –> 00:57:26,600
\nbeginning being caused to fly
\nswiftly touched me. <\/p>\n
794
\n00:57:27,200 –> 00:57:31,300
\nBut the time of the evening
\noblation at the time of the <\/p>\n
795
\n00:57:31,300 –> 00:57:35,000
\nevening sacrifice, when the
\nburdock, Frame for the evening. <\/p>\n
796
\n00:57:35,000 –> 00:57:37,900
\nThat was to go right through the
\nhours of Darkness was being <\/p>\n
797
\n00:57:38,400 –> 00:57:43,800
\nprepared, head body, internal,
\norgans washed and cleansed and <\/p>\n
798
\n00:57:43,800 –> 00:57:47,000
\nplace piece by piece in order on
\nthe Altar. <\/p>\n
799
\n00:57:47,400 –> 00:57:50,500
\nAnd as at the same time,
\nsimultaneously, the incense was <\/p>\n
800
\n00:57:50,500 –> 00:57:54,500
\nbeing burnt for the nation as
\nthat was to be done and it <\/p>\n
801
\n00:57:54,508 –> 00:57:57,400
\nwasn’t being prepared although
\nof course not in the days of <\/p>\n
802
\n00:57:57,400 –> 00:58:01,100
\nDaniel.
\nBut at that time Gabriel comes <\/p>\n
803
\n00:58:01,100 –> 00:58:05,600
\nand responds to Daniel’s prayer
\nshowing The Surety of the answer<\/p>\n
804
\n00:58:05,600 –> 00:58:11,200
\nof prayer, and for a man who
\nsin, who confessed rather the <\/p>\n
805
\n00:58:11,200 –> 00:58:16,100
\nsins of his Nation, who sought
\nrelief for transgression and sin<\/p>\n
806
\n00:58:16,500 –> 00:58:19,500
\nand confessed such depravity of
\nhis Nation. <\/p>\n
807
\n00:58:19,900 –> 00:58:27,100
\nWho does God send, which angel
\nof all of them, He sends Gabriel<\/p>\n
808
\n00:58:28,700 –> 00:58:31,600
\nwhy Gabriel what’s Gabriel to
\ntell him? <\/p>\n
809
\n00:58:32,100 –> 00:58:37,800
\nGabriel is to tell him in verse
\n24 of the 70 weeks prophecy that<\/p>\n
810
\n00:58:37,800 –> 00:58:41,700
\nwould bring Messiah and an
\nanswer to Daniel’s prayer in <\/p>\n
811
\n00:58:41,700 –> 00:58:44,600
\nverse 24.
\nWhat will Messiah do? <\/p>\n
812
\n00:58:44,700 –> 00:58:46,500
\nHe will finish the
\ntransgression. <\/p>\n
813
\n00:58:47,100 –> 00:58:50,500
\nHe will make an end of sins.
\nHe will make reconciliation for <\/p>\n
814
\n00:58:50,500 –> 00:58:53,000
\niniquity.
\nHe will bring in Everlasting <\/p>\n
815
\n00:58:53,000 –> 00:58:56,300
\nrighteousness.
\nMessiah will address the <\/p>\n
816
\n00:58:56,300 –> 00:59:00,100
\ncontents of Daniels prayer.
\nDaniel Prayed for the <\/p>\n
817
\n00:59:00,100 –> 00:59:04,800
\nForgiveness of transgression
\niniquity and sin, and Messiah <\/p>\n
818
\n00:59:04,800 –> 00:59:07,600
\nwill answer that, he will be the
\natonement. <\/p>\n
819
\n00:59:07,800 –> 00:59:11,700
\nHe will be the answer.
\nAnd when Messiah is to be born <\/p>\n
820
\n00:59:12,400 –> 00:59:20,500
\nof all the Angels whom does God
\nsend Gabriel how incredibly <\/p>\n
821
\n00:59:20,900 –> 00:59:24,800
\ndivinely appropriate.
\nThat the one who comes to Joseph<\/p>\n
822
\n00:59:24,800 –> 00:59:31,100
\nand Mary is the one who came to
\nDaniel and gave him the hope for<\/p>\n
823
\n00:59:31,100 –> 00:59:35,000
\nthe sins of his people.
\nHere was one in Messiah. <\/p>\n
824
\n00:59:35,000 –> 00:59:38,900
\nThat was the great Shepherd.
\nThe one who truly showed <\/p>\n
825
\n00:59:38,900 –> 00:59:42,600
\npatience and who was the great
\nphysician that quoted Hosea <\/p>\n
826
\n00:59:42,600 –> 00:59:46,700
\nchapter 6.
\nLet us rejoice brothers and <\/p>\n
827
\n00:59:46,700 –> 00:59:51,200
\nsisters.
\nIn the wisdom and in the <\/p>\n
828
\n00:59:51,200 –> 00:59:55,500
\nsureness of God’s answer to
\nDaniel’s prayer and two hours <\/p>\n
829
\n00:59:56,100 –> 00:59:59,300
\nfor we too, must identify with
\nthat Nation as Daniel did. <\/p>\n
830
\n01:00:00,000 –> 01:00:04,200
\nAnd in Messiah, who was cut off,
\nwe find the one who is the <\/p>\n
831
\n01:00:04,200 –> 01:00:09,800
\nprince of us, one who was to be
