>> IT'S BEEN 2,000 YEARS SINCE
THE GLORIOUS LIGHT OF THE CROSS
00:00:09.50\00:00:12.40
ILLUMINATED A WORLD
VEILED IN DARKNESS AND CONFUSION
00:00:12.40\00:00:15.16
ABOUT THE CHARACTER OF GOD.
00:00:15.16\00:00:17.06
AND STILL TODAY THE GREATEST
NEED OF MANKIND IS A REVELATION
00:00:17.06\00:00:20.23
OF GOD'S LOVE AS
REVEALED IN THE LIFE OF CHRIST.
00:00:20.23\00:00:23.56
AMAZING FACTS PRESENTS,
"THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL"
00:00:23.56\00:00:26.60
WITH PASTOR DOUG BATCHELOR
COMING TO YOU EACH WEEK
00:00:26.60\00:00:29.80
FROM SACRAMENTO CENTRAL
CHURCH IN SUNNY CALIFORNIA.
00:00:29.80\00:00:32.90
DISCOVER HIDDEN
TREASURES IN GOD'S WORD TODAY.
00:00:32.90\00:00:36.60
>> I'M GLAD TO SEE EACH OF YOU
HERE, AND I PRAY THAT YOU WILL
00:00:38.73\00:00:45.53
PRAY FOR ME BECAUSE I REALLY
FEEL LIKE WE'RE TREADING ON
00:00:45.53\00:00:53.56
SACRED GROUND IN THE THEME
THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT
00:00:53.56\00:00:57.86
THE LAST 3 OR 4 WEEKS AND WILL
STILL FOR A LITTLE TIME TO COME.
00:00:57.86\00:01:03.46
I'M NOT SURE HOW LONG WE'LL GO.
00:01:03.46\00:01:05.56
THERE'S SO MUCH MATERIAL ON
THIS SUBJECT OF JESUS THROUGHOUT
00:01:05.56\00:01:09.96
THE BIBLE.
00:01:09.96\00:01:11.46
TODAY WE'LL BE DEALING
WITH THE THIRD IN THIS SERIES.
00:01:11.46\00:01:16.10
NOW THIS IS JUST, WE'RE
JUST DOING A QUICK OVERVIEW.
00:01:16.10\00:01:22.86
LAST NIGHT I FLEW
BACK FROM WATSONVILLE.
00:01:22.86\00:01:26.60
I WAS ACTUALLY DOWN AT SOCAL AND
SO RICH KOLLENBERG AND I WE FLEW
00:01:26.60\00:01:29.93
DOWN, WE DID OUR PRESENTATIONS
THERE AND THEN AFTER DARK,
00:01:29.93\00:01:32.83
TOOK OFF AT WATSONVILLE
AND FLEW UP THROUGH THE FOG
00:01:32.83\00:01:36.06
INTO THE STARLIGHT.
00:01:36.06\00:01:37.73
TURNED AROUND OVER THE
OCEAN AND BEGAN HEADING BACK
00:01:37.73\00:01:39.90
TO SACRAMENTO.
00:01:39.90\00:01:41.00
IT'S VERY
INTERESTING, IT WAS COLD THERE
00:01:41.00\00:01:43.83
AND HAD OUR JACKETS ON.
00:01:43.83\00:01:46.10
BY THE TIME WE GOT TO
SACRAMENTO, WE WERE SWEATIN'.
00:01:46.10\00:01:49.06
BUT FLYING AT NIGHT, IT'S
EASY TO SPOT CERTAIN LANDMARKS.
00:01:49.06\00:01:54.63
YOU SEE THESE CLUSTERS OF LIGHT
AND YOU CAN SAY, WELL, THAT'S
00:01:54.63\00:01:58.96
SAN JOSE AND THAT OVER THERE, OF
COURSE, IS WATSONVILLE AND THERE
00:01:58.96\00:02:03.53
YOU'VE GOT STOCKTON
AND ELK GROVE AND WEST SAC'
00:02:03.53\00:02:07.13
AND YOU'RE ABLE TO SEE
THESE CLUSTERS OF LIGHT
00:02:07.13\00:02:09.53
AND IDENTIFY THEM.
00:02:09.53\00:02:10.93
THERE'S A WHOLE LOT OF CITY
AND COMMUNITY AND NEIGHBORHOODS
00:02:10.93\00:02:13.70
IN BETWEEN THAT YOU
CAN'T ALWAYS IDENTIFY.
00:02:13.70\00:02:17.00
IN OUR SERIES ON JESUS THROUGH
THE BIBLE, WE'RE DOING A FLYOVER
00:02:17.00\00:02:21.93
AND WE'RE JUST LOOKING
AT SOME OF THE HIGH POINTS.
00:02:21.93\00:02:25.96
WE TALKED ABOUT
JOSEPH AS A TYPE OF CHRIST.
00:02:25.96\00:02:28.63
WE TALKED ABOUT MOSES LAST WEEK
AS A WONDERFUL TYPE OF CHRIST,
00:02:28.63\00:02:32.36
BUT WE DID NOT COVER EVERYTHING.
00:02:32.36\00:02:35.00
MATTER OF FACT AFTER THE SERMON,
I WAS STOMPING MY FOOT AND THINK
00:02:35.00\00:02:39.10
OH, ONE OF THOSE GREAT EXAMPLES
OF JESUS IN THE COMPARISON WITH
00:02:39.10\00:02:45.26
MOSES, MOSES WAS THE MEEKEST
MAN, CHRIST, MEEK AND LOWLY.
00:02:45.26\00:02:49.66
AND I KEPT THINKING ABOUT
IT AND SAID OH, I WISH I'D SAID
00:02:49.66\00:02:51.50
THIS, I WISH I'D SAID THAT.
00:02:51.50\00:02:52.63
SO I'M SORT OF
ISSUING A DISCLAIMER.
00:02:52.63\00:02:54.86
THIS IS NOT AN
EXHAUSTIVE COMPREHENSIVE STUDY.
00:02:54.86\00:02:57.46
WE'RE DOING A FLYOVER 'CAUSE I
WANT YOU TO REALIZE HOW MUCH OF
00:02:57.46\00:03:01.46
JESUS IS REALLY IN THE BIBLE AND
WHAT A SACRED DOCUMENT YOU HAVE
00:03:01.46\00:03:07.13
IN YOUR HANDS WITH THE BIBLE.
00:03:07.13\00:03:10.53
IT IS A SUPERNATURAL BOOK THAT
PROVES THE REALITY OF GOD AND
00:03:10.53\00:03:16.46
ONE WAY WE KNOW THAT IS BECAUSE
CHRIST WAS THE FULFILLMENT OF
00:03:16.46\00:03:20.80
ALL OF THESE
HISTORICAL CHARACTERS.
00:03:20.80\00:03:24.73
I HEARD AN AMAZING FACT.
00:03:24.73\00:03:27.73
MATTER OF FACT, IF YOU WERE
LISTENING TO THE BROADCAST LAST
00:03:27.73\00:03:30.53
SUNDAY YOU MAY HAVE
ALREADY HEARD THIS, BUT I'M JUST
00:03:30.53\00:03:32.70
GAMBLING THAT MOST OF YOU
WEREN'T LISTENING SO I'M GONNA
00:03:32.70\00:03:34.66
SHARE IT AGAIN.
00:03:34.66\00:03:36.20
BACK ABOUT 11 YEARS AGO,
THERE'S A MAN NAMED STAN CAFFY
00:03:36.20\00:03:41.36
AND HIS WIFE LINDA.
00:03:41.36\00:03:42.90
WELL, THEY GOT MARRIED AND AS
OFTEN HAPPENS WHEN YOU COMBINE
00:03:42.90\00:03:45.40
HOUSEHOLDS, THEY SAID, "LOOK,
WE GOTTA MAKE SOME SPACE."
00:03:45.40\00:03:47.46
AND SHE SAID, "YOU GOTTA
CLEAN OUT THIS GARAGE, STAN."
00:03:47.46\00:03:50.00
WHICH ALSO SERVED AS HIS
SHOP WHERE HE DID SOME BICYCLE
00:03:50.00\00:03:52.50
REPAIR.
00:03:52.50\00:03:53.66
AND HE HAD, YOU KNOW, COLLECTED
THE TYPICAL STUFF THAT OFTEN
00:03:53.66\00:03:56.63
DEVELOPS IN A
GARAGE OR EVEN A SHOP.
00:03:56.63\00:03:59.76
AMONG THE THINGS THAT THEY WERE
FERRETING THROUGH, SHE SAID,
00:03:59.76\00:04:02.26
"LOOK, YOU GOTTA GET RID OF THAT
PICTURE YOU GOT ON THE WALL."
00:04:02.26\00:04:06.53
WELL, HE HAD BOUGHT, 10
YEARS EARLIER, THIS--IT WAS
00:04:06.53\00:04:10.33
A DUPLICATE OF THE CONSTITUTION
OF THE UNITED STATES AND IT WAS
00:04:10.33\00:04:13.43
FRAMED AND HANGING THERE.
00:04:13.43\00:04:15.00
AND HE SAID, "OH, I LIKE THAT.
00:04:15.00\00:04:16.63
IT'S KIND OF A
HISTORICAL DOCUMENT."
00:04:16.63\00:04:19.23
AND SHE SAID, "YOU KNOW IT'S
JUST A CHEAP COPY AND IT'S GOTTA
00:04:19.23\00:04:23.00
GO" AND SHE WON THE ARGUMENT.
00:04:23.00\00:04:25.13
SO TOOK IT OUT OF THE FRAME,
ROLLED IT UP TO SAVE SOME SPACE
00:04:25.13\00:04:28.76
AND SHE PILED IT IN THE CAR
WITH A LOT OF OTHER THINGS THEY
00:04:28.76\00:04:31.66
DONATED TO A THRIFT
STORE THERE IN NASHVILLE.
00:04:31.66\00:04:36.86
FAST FORWARD A YEAR,
MICHAEL SPARKS, WHO IS A MUSIC
00:04:36.86\00:04:41.56
ENGINEER IN THE NASHVILLE
AREA, WENT TO THE GIFT STORE
00:04:41.56\00:04:46.16
IN HIS SPARE TIME.
00:04:46.16\00:04:47.10
IT WAS CALLED
"MUSIC CITY THRIFT STORE"
00:04:47.10\00:04:49.76
AND HE WAS RUMMAGING AROUND.
00:04:49.76\00:04:52.56
HE FOUND A PAIR OF SALT
AND PEPPER SHAKERS AND SOME
00:04:52.56\00:04:55.43
CANDLESTICKS, AND THERE
WAS THIS ROLLED-UP COPY OF
00:04:55.43\00:04:58.86
THE CONSTITUTION.
00:04:58.86\00:05:01.03
HE LOOKED AT IT AND SAID,
"WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR THIS?"
00:05:01.03\00:05:02.60
AND THE PROPRIETOR SAID $2.75
WHICH WAS 75 CENTS MORE THAN
00:05:02.60\00:05:08.96
STAN CAFFY HAD PAID
FOR IT 11 YEARS EARLIER.
00:05:08.96\00:05:14.26
WELL, WHEN MICHAEL SPARKS GOT
BACK HOME AND HE UNROLLED IT AND
00:05:14.26\00:05:17.86
WENT TO PIN IT UP ON THE WALL.
00:05:17.86\00:05:19.50
HE LOOKED AT IT.
00:05:19.50\00:05:20.36
SPENT SEVERAL DAYS LOOKING AT IT
A THOUGHT, "YOU KNOW THIS LOOKS
00:05:20.36\00:05:22.23
LIKE IT COULD BE PRETTY OLD
EVEN THOUGH IT IS JUST A COPY."
00:05:22.23\00:05:25.73
GOT ON THE INTERNET AND STARTING
CLICKING AROUND AND DID A LITTLE
00:05:25.73\00:05:29.23
RESEARCH AND THERE WAS SOME
CLUES AND HE DISCOVERED THAT
00:05:29.23\00:05:33.30
HE HAD ONE OF ONLY 36 REMAINING
COPIES OF THE DECLARATION OF
00:05:33.30\00:05:40.90
INDEPENDENCE THAT
HAD BEEN COMMISSIONED BY
00:05:40.90\00:05:44.83
JOHN QUINCY ADAMS.
00:05:44.83\00:05:46.86
TWO HUNDRED ORIGINALS HAD BEEN
COMMISSIONED, BUT THEY'VE ONLY
00:05:46.86\00:05:50.40
BEEN ABLE TO FIND 36
INTACT AND HE HAD NUMBER 37.
00:05:50.40\00:05:55.86
SO AFTER IT WAS AUTHENTICATED,
THAT TOOK A YEAR TO AUTHENTICATE
00:05:55.86\00:05:58.96
IT, AND HE HAD IT
CAREFULLY PRESERVED IN GLASS.
00:05:58.96\00:06:02.33
THEY AUCTIONED IT
THERE IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
00:06:02.33\00:06:06.06
BIDDING BEGAN AT $125,000.
00:06:06.06\00:06:10.90
BIDDING
CONCLUDED AT OVER $477,000.
00:06:10.90\00:06:16.46
NOW HOW DO YOU THINK
STAN AND LINDA CAFFY FELT?
00:06:16.46\00:06:23.26
WONDER WHAT
HAPPENED TO THEIR MARRIAGE?
00:06:23.26\00:06:27.20
HE ACTUALLY SAID, "WELL,
YOU KNOW IF I HADN'T DONATED IT
00:06:27.20\00:06:30.00
TO THE THRIFT SHOP, IT'D STILL
BE HANGING UP IN MY GARAGE."
00:06:30.00\00:06:34.30
HE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HE
HAD, AND I WONDER HOW MANY OF US
00:06:34.30\00:06:37.90
DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'VE GOT.
00:06:37.90\00:06:40.23
YOU HAVE A SACRED DOCUMENT
IN YOUR HANDS IN THE BIBLE.
00:06:40.23\00:06:46.06
AND THIS SERIES ON JESUS
THROUGHOUT THE SCRIPTURE,
00:06:46.06\00:06:50.56
WHEN WE LOOK AT THESE
CHARACTERS IN THE BIBLE,
00:06:50.56\00:06:53.16
IT HELPS US TO RECOGNIZE,
WOW, HOW DID GOD KNOW?
00:06:53.16\00:06:57.26
HOW COULD GOD HAVE SUCH COMPLETE
CONTROL OF HISTORY SO THAT THE
00:06:57.26\00:07:00.93
LIVES OF THESE BIBLE CHARACTERS
THAT REALLY DID LIVE COULD BE
00:07:00.93\00:07:04.03
REPLICATED IN THE LIFE OF JESUS?
00:07:04.03\00:07:08.73
YOU KNOW THERE'S A
QUOTE FROM THE BOOK
00:07:08.73\00:07:12.06
"THAT I MIGHT KNOW HIM."
00:07:12.06\00:07:14.36
THIS IS THAT CHRISTIAN
BOOK "THAT I MIGHT KNOW HIM."
00:07:14.36\00:07:16.40
IT'S WHAT THEY
CALL A DEVOTIONAL BOOK.
00:07:16.40\00:07:19.06
PAGE 208 AND IT BEGINS WITH
THE SCRIPTURE "AND BEGINNING
00:07:19.06\00:07:25.96
AT MOSES AND ALL THE PROPHETS,
HE EXPOUNDED UNTO THEM IN
00:07:25.96\00:07:29.16
ALL THE SCRIPTURES THE
THINGS CONCERNING HIMSELF."
00:07:29.16\00:07:32.66
I'VE READ THAT SO FAR I
THINK DURING EACH PRESENTATION.
00:07:32.66\00:07:36.80
"THERE IS ONE GREAT CENTRAL
TRUTH TO BE KEPT EVER BEFORE
00:07:36.80\00:07:43.20
THE MIND IN SEARCHING
THE SCRIPTURES, CHRIST
00:07:43.20\00:07:47.03
AND HIM CRUCIFIED.
00:07:47.03\00:07:49.40
EVERY OTHER TRUTH IS INVESTED
WITH INFLUENCE AND POWER
00:07:49.40\00:07:53.23
CORRESPONDING TO ITS
RELATION TO THIS THEME."
00:07:53.23\00:07:57.63
EVERY OTHER TRUTH IN THE BIBLE
HAS ITS POWER DRAWN FROM THE
00:07:57.63\00:08:01.63
TRUTH THAT JESUS IS THE CORE,
ESPECIALLY IN THE OLD TESTAMENT
00:08:01.63\00:08:06.00
AS WELL.
00:08:06.00\00:08:07.80
"IT IS ONLY IN THE LIGHT OF
THE CROSS THAT WE CAN DISCERN
00:08:07.80\00:08:12.96
THE EXALTED
CHARACTER OF THE LAW OF GOD.
00:08:12.96\00:08:16.56
THE SOUL, PALSIED BY SIN CAN BE
ENDOWED WITH LIFE ONLY THROUGH
00:08:16.56\00:08:21.00
THE WORK WROUGHT OUT
ON THE CROSS BY THE AUTHOR
00:08:21.00\00:08:23.76
OF OUR SALVATION.
00:08:23.76\00:08:25.46
THE LOVE OF CHRIST CONSTRAINS
MAN TO UNITE WITH HIM IN
00:08:25.46\00:08:28.93
HIS LABORS AND SACRIFICE.
00:08:28.93\00:08:30.83
THE REVELATION OF DIVINE LOVE
AWAKENS IN THEM A SENSE OF THEIR
00:08:30.83\00:08:34.30
NEGLECTED OBLIGATION TO
BE LIGHT BEARERS TO THE WORLD
00:08:34.30\00:08:38.00
AND INSPIRES THEM
WITH A MISSIONARY SPIRIT.
00:08:38.00\00:08:40.86
THIS TRUTH," CHRIST AND ALL
THE BIBLE, "ENLIGHTENS THE MIND
00:08:40.86\00:08:45.13
AND SANCTIFIES THE SOUL.
00:08:45.13\00:08:48.26
IT WILL BANISH
UNBELIEF AND INSPIRE FAITH."
00:08:48.26\00:08:51.53
THAT'S MY GOAL.
00:08:51.53\00:08:52.23
THAT'S WHY I'M DOING
THIS, I WANT TO BANISH UNBELIEF
00:08:52.23\00:08:54.10
AND INSPIRE FAITH IN
HIS WORD IN YOUR HEARTS.
00:08:54.10\00:08:57.50
"WHEN CHRIST IN HIS WORK
OF REDEMPTION IS SEEN TO BE
00:08:57.50\00:09:01.30
THE GREAT CENTRAL TRUTH IN
THE SYSTEM OF TRUTH, A NEW LIGHT
00:09:01.30\00:09:06.40
IS SHED UPON THE
EVENTS OF PAST AND THE FUTURE.
00:09:06.40\00:09:09.90
THEY ARE SEEN IN A NEW RELATION
AND POSSESS A NEW AND A DEEPER
00:09:09.90\00:09:13.73
SIGNIFICANCE.
00:09:13.73\00:09:16.10
THE OLD TESTAMENT IS AS VERILY
THE GOSPEL IN TYPES AND SHADOWS
00:09:16.10\00:09:19.90
AS THE NEW TESTAMENT
IS IN UNFOLDING POWER."
00:09:19.90\00:09:23.53
YOU GET THAT?
00:09:23.53\00:09:24.46
THE OLD TESTAMENT
IS THE GOSPEL ALSO.
00:09:24.46\00:09:27.96
YOU FIRST READ
ABOUT THE NEW TESTAMENT
00:09:27.96\00:09:30.23
IN THE OLD TESTAMENT.
00:09:30.23\00:09:32.66
YOU FIRST HEAR THE WORDS OF
THE NEW COVENANT IN JEREMIAH,
00:09:32.66\00:09:36.60
IN MOSES.
00:09:36.60\00:09:39.30
"THE NEW TESTAMENT DOES
NOT PRESENT A NEW RELIGION.
00:09:39.30\00:09:43.23
THE OLD TESTAMENT DOES
NOT PRESENT A RELIGION TO BE
00:09:43.23\00:09:45.90
SUPERSEDED BY THE NEW.
00:09:45.90\00:09:47.43
THE NEW TESTAMENT IS ONLY
THE ADVANCEMENT AND UNFOLDING
00:09:47.43\00:09:50.13
OF THE OLD.
00:09:50.13\00:09:51.33
ABEL--" THAT'S GOING
PRETTY FAR BACK IN THE BIBLE.
00:09:51.33\00:09:54.70
"ABEL WAS A BELIEVER IN CHRIST
AS VERILY SAVED BY HIS POWER
00:09:54.70\00:09:58.86
AS WAS PETER AND PAUL.
00:09:58.86\00:10:00.60
ENOCH WAS A REPRESENTATIVE OF
CHRIST AS SURELY WAS THE BELOVED
00:10:00.60\00:10:04.00
DISCIPLE, JOHN.
00:10:04.00\00:10:05.63
THAT GOD WHO WALKED WITH
ENOCH WAS OUR LORD AND SAVIOR,
00:10:05.63\00:10:08.70
JESUS CHRIST.
00:10:08.70\00:10:09.93
HE WAS THE LIGHT OF THE
WORLD THEN JUST AS HE IS NOW.
00:10:09.93\00:10:13.43
THE TRUTH FOR THIS TIME IS BROAD
IN HIS OUTLINES, FAR REACHING
00:10:13.43\00:10:17.33
EMBRACING MANY DOCTRINES, BUT
THESE DOCTRINES ARE NOT DETACHED
00:10:17.33\00:10:20.96
ITEMS WHICH MEAN LITTLE.
00:10:20.96\00:10:23.06
THEY'RE UNITED BY GOLDEN THREADS
FORMING A COMPLETE WHOLE WITH
00:10:23.06\00:10:27.26
CHRIST AS THE LIVING CENTER."
00:10:27.26\00:10:28.93
ALL THE BIBLE IS ABOUT JESUS.
00:10:28.93\00:10:32.90
WE'VE LOOKED AT CHRIST AND SEEN
DIFFERENT FACETS OF CHRIST'S
00:10:32.90\00:10:36.56
CHARACTER BY LOOKING AT ENOCH
AND ABEL AND ADAM AND NOAH AND
00:10:36.56\00:10:42.00
JOSEPH AND MOSES
AND TODAY, DAVID.
00:10:42.00\00:10:47.40
NOW THIS IS DOUBLY IMPORTANT
TODAY BECAUSE OF ALL THE
00:10:47.40\00:10:54.06
CHARACTERS MENTIONED IN THE HOLY
WRITINGS, YOU FIND THIS NAME
00:10:54.06\00:10:59.06
MENTIONED MORE THAN ANY NAME.
00:10:59.06\00:11:02.36
DAVID IS MENTIONED
MORE THAN OUR LORD JESUS.
00:11:02.36\00:11:06.80
DAVID IS MENTIONED MORE
THAN MOSES, MORE THAN ELIJAH,
00:11:06.80\00:11:10.93
MORE THAN JOSEPH.
00:11:10.93\00:11:12.43
THERE'S MORE THAN
ONE JOHN IN THE BIBLE.
00:11:12.43\00:11:15.73
THERE'S ACTUALLY
MORE THAN ONE MOSES.
00:11:15.73\00:11:18.63
THERE'S MORE THAN ONE
JESUS MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE.
00:11:18.63\00:11:23.96
BUT THERE'S ONLY ONE INDIVIDUAL
IN THE WHOLE BIBLE CALLED
00:11:23.96\00:11:26.73
BY THE NAME DAVID.
00:11:26.73\00:11:28.80
DAVID IS ONE OF THE MOST
OUTSTANDING TYPES OF JESUS
00:11:28.80\00:11:33.20
IN THE BIBLE.
00:11:33.20\00:11:34.00
NOW I'M NOT SAVING DAVID
FOR THE THIRD PRESENTATION
00:11:34.00\00:11:36.46
BECAUSE OF IMPORTANCE.
00:11:36.46\00:11:40.13
I'M GOING THROUGH THESE
TYPES OF CHRIST SEQUENTIALLY
00:11:40.13\00:11:43.46
AND NOW WE REACH REALLY DAVID.
00:11:43.46\00:11:45.30
DAVID IS FOUND
1,066 TIMES IN THE BIBLE.
00:11:45.30\00:11:51.26
THERE'S MORE SAID ABOUT HIM
THAN ANY OTHER BIBLE CHARACTER.
00:11:51.26\00:11:54.30
IN MANY WAYS, THIS BOOK
COULD BE THE STORY OF DAVID.
00:11:54.30\00:11:57.13
JESUS IS THE SON OF DAVID.
00:11:57.13\00:11:59.26
DID YOU KNOW THAT THE LAST
CHAPTER IN THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT
00:11:59.26\00:12:02.10
DAVID?
00:12:02.10\00:12:03.76
YOU CAN READ THERE IN REVELATION
WHERE CHRIST IS THE ROOT AND
00:12:03.76\00:12:07.83
THE OFFSPRING OF
DAVID IN REVELATION 22.
00:12:07.83\00:12:11.80
SO LET'S LOOK AT SOME OF THE
PARALLELS THAT WE'RE GOING TO
00:12:11.80\00:12:15.30
FIND IN THE BIBLE ABOUT DAVID.
00:12:15.30\00:12:20.00
DAVID MEANS BELOVED.
00:12:20.00\00:12:23.43
JESUS IS THE BELOVED SON
OF THE FATHER CALLED SOMETIMES
00:12:23.43\00:12:28.96
THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON.
00:12:28.96\00:12:30.46
YOU REMEMBER WHEN JESUS WAS
BAPTIZED, "THIS IS MY BELOVED
00:12:30.46\00:12:33.90
SON IN WHOM I AM WELL PLEASED"
AND SO THAT'S WHAT THE VERY
00:12:33.90\00:12:39.20
NAME DAVID MEANS
AND DAVID WAS BEAUTIFUL.
00:12:39.20\00:12:43.63
1 SAMUEL 16:12, "SO HE
SENT AND BROUGHT HIM IN.
00:12:43.63\00:12:47.96
NOW HE WAS RUDDY."
00:12:47.96\00:12:49.63
THAT MEANS HE WAS BEEN OUT
IN THE SUN 'CAUSE HE'D BEEN
00:12:49.63\00:12:54.60
WATCHING THE SHEEP.
00:12:54.60\00:12:55.53
RUDDY MEANS RED.
00:12:55.53\00:12:57.23
YOU CAN LOOK AT SOMEONE
WHEN THEY'VE BEEN WORKING
00:12:57.23\00:12:59.16
IN THE GARDEN AND SAY,
"YOU'VE BEEN OUT IN THE SUN."
00:12:59.16\00:13:01.36
"HE WAS RUDDY WITH
BRIGHT EYES AND GOOD LOOKING."
00:13:01.36\00:13:06.23
YOU KNOW IT DOESN'T SAY THAT
ABOUT TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THE
00:13:06.23\00:13:09.16
BIBLE, THAT THEY WERE HANDSOME.
00:13:09.16\00:13:11.90
SAYS IT ABOUT JOSEPH, ANOTHER
TYPE OF CHRIST AND IT SAYS IT
00:13:11.90\00:13:14.33
ABOUT DAVID.
00:13:14.33\00:13:15.73
OF COURSE IT SAYS IT
ABOUT THE WIVES OF ABRAHAM,
00:13:15.73\00:13:18.10
ISAAC AND JACOB.
00:13:18.10\00:13:19.03
DOESN'T SAY ABRAHAM, ISAAC
OR JACOB WERE GOOD LOOKING,
00:13:19.03\00:13:22.70
BUT IT SAYS ALL OF THEIR WIVES
WERE GOOD LOOKING 'CAUSE THEY
00:13:22.70\00:13:25.23
ARE ALL TYPES OF THE CHURCH.
00:13:25.23\00:13:27.13
AND DAVID WHO IS A TYPE OF
CHRIST IS ALSO CALLED BELOVED.
00:13:27.13\00:13:33.73
BY THE WAY, IN THE BOOK SONG
OF SOLOMON WHICH IS REALLY A
00:13:33.73\00:13:36.36
BEAUTIFUL METAPHOR OF JESUS, IT
SPEAKS OF THE BRIDEGROOM AS "THE
00:13:36.36\00:13:43.50
BELOVED IS MINE AND I AM HIS."
00:13:43.50\00:13:47.06
WE PROBABLY SUNG
THAT SONG BEFORE.
00:13:47.06\00:13:49.73
YOU KNOW WHICH ONE?
00:13:49.73\00:13:51.13
[SINGING] HE IS
MINE AND I AM HIS,
00:13:51.13\00:13:53.40
HIS MANNER OVER ME IS LOVE.
00:13:53.40\00:13:55.10
>> HOW MANY OF
YOU KNOW THAT ONE?
00:13:55.10\00:13:56.66
LET'S ALL SING IT TOGETHER.
00:13:56.66\00:13:57.73
NO, I'M JUST-- HE
IS BORN IN BETHLEHEM.
00:13:57.73\00:14:02.20
NOW JESUS IS BORN
IN BETHLEHEM OF COURSE.
00:14:02.20\00:14:05.76
NOW 1 SAMUEL 16:1, "NOW
THE LORD SAID TO SAMUEL,
00:14:05.76\00:14:08.76
FILL YOUR HORN WITH OIL AND GO.
00:14:08.76\00:14:12.00
I AM SENDING YOU TO JESSE,
THE BETHLEHEMITE FOR I PROVIDED
00:14:12.00\00:14:15.70
MYSELF A KING AMONG HIS SONS."
00:14:15.70\00:14:18.93
AND AGAIN, JESUS
CAME FROM BETHLEHEM.
00:14:18.93\00:14:22.70
EVEN THOUGH HE WAS GROWING
UP IN NAZARETH, GOD ORCHESTRATED
00:14:22.70\00:14:26.80
HISTORY WHERE HE
WAS BORN IN BETHLEHEM.
00:14:26.80\00:14:29.53
YOU ALSO FIND THAT
DAVID IS THE YOUNGEST SON OF
00:14:29.53\00:14:33.63
AN ANCIENT FATHER.
00:14:33.63\00:14:35.40
NOW YOU'LL FIND THAT'S OFTEN
TRUE OF THE TYPES IN THE BIBLE.
00:14:35.40\00:14:39.66
ABRAHAM WAS VERY
OLD WHEN ISAAC WAS BORN.
00:14:39.66\00:14:44.36
ISAAC IS A TYPE OF CHRIST.
00:14:44.36\00:14:46.16
HE WAS WAY BEYOND WHEN
HE SHOULD HAVE HAD HIM.
00:14:46.16\00:14:49.23
HE WAS AN ANCIENT
FATHER WHO GAVE BIRTH.
00:14:49.23\00:14:51.80
JOSEPH--RATHER JACOB KEPT TRYING
TO HAVE A SON THROUGH RACHEL
00:14:51.80\00:14:55.43
BUT SHE WAS BARREN.
00:14:55.43\00:14:56.86
FINALLY HE HAS A SON, JOSEPH,
AND JOSEPH IS REFERRED TO
00:14:56.86\00:15:01.40
AS THE SON OF HIS OLD AGE.
00:15:01.40\00:15:04.66
AND THEN YOU FIND
THAT'S ALSO TRUE WITH DAVID.
00:15:04.66\00:15:08.16
YOU CAN READ HERE
IN 1 SAMUEL 17:12,
00:15:08.16\00:15:11.10
"NOW DAVID WAS THE SON OF
THAT EPHRATHITE OF BETHLEHEM OF
00:15:11.10\00:15:15.56
JUDAH WHOSE NAME WAS JESSE.
00:15:15.56\00:15:17.56
HE HAD EIGHT SONS AND THE MAN
WAS OLD AND ADVANCED IN YEARS
00:15:17.56\00:15:23.00
IN THE DAYS OF SAUL."
00:15:23.00\00:15:24.83
JESSE WAS AN OLD MAN.
00:15:24.83\00:15:26.60
DAVID WAS THE SON OF HIS
OLD AGE BECAUSE OUR FATHER
00:15:26.60\00:15:30.56
IS THE ANCIENT OF DAYS.
00:15:30.56\00:15:32.90
HIS SON IS BROUGHT
BEFORE HIM IN DANIEL 7.
00:15:32.90\00:15:36.36
THE SON, ONE LIKE THE SON OF
MAN COMES BEFORE THE ANCIENT OF
00:15:36.36\00:15:39.36
DAYS, THE ETERNAL, AND SO
HE'S EVEN A TYPE OF DAVID IN
00:15:39.36\00:15:43.96
THIS PART OF THE STORY AS WELL.
00:15:43.96\00:15:46.76
AS WE DIG INTO THE
STORY--THERE'S A LOT TO COVER
00:15:46.76\00:15:49.26
SO I'M KIND OF
JUMPING FROM ONE TO THE NEXT.
00:15:49.26\00:15:51.86
AS WE DIG INTO THE
STORY, WE FIND OUT THAT DAVID
00:15:51.86\00:15:56.03
IS A GOOD SHEPHERD,
JESUS IS OUR GOOD SHEPHERD.
00:15:56.03\00:15:59.66
EVEN BEYOND THAT, DAVID
IS A SACRIFICIAL SHEPHERD.
00:15:59.66\00:16:03.76
YOU CAN READ IN 1 SAMUEL
17 WHEN HE'S TELLING KING SAUL
00:16:03.76\00:16:08.36
HE'S ABOUT TO FIGHT GOLIATH.
00:16:08.36\00:16:09.70
DAVID SAID TO SAUL, VERSE 34,
"YOUR SERVANT USED TO KEEP HIS
00:16:09.70\00:16:14.60
FATHER'S SHEEP AND WHEN A LION
OR A BEAR CAME AND TOOK A LAMB
00:16:14.60\00:16:19.60
OUT OF THE FLOCK, I WENT
OUT AFTER IT AND I STRUCK IT
00:16:19.60\00:16:24.73
AND DELIVERED THE
LAMB FROM ITS MOUTH."
00:16:24.73\00:16:28.03
THAT REMINDS US, OF COURSE, OF
JESUS WHO IS OUR GOOD SHEPHERD
00:16:28.03\00:16:31.73
WHO GOES OUT AND TAKES US--
YOU EVER HEARD ABOUT SOMEONE
00:16:31.73\00:16:34.66
SNATCHED FROM
THE JAWS OF THE LION?
00:16:34.66\00:16:38.46
THE DEVIL GOES
AROUND AS A ROARING LION,
00:16:38.46\00:16:41.86
SEEKING WHOM HE MIGHT DEVOUR.
00:16:41.86\00:16:43.60
JESUS IS OUR GOOD SACRIFICIAL
SHEPHERD WHO SNATCHES US FROM
00:16:43.60\00:16:47.43
THE JAWS OF THE LION.
00:16:47.43\00:16:49.23
SOMETIMES YOU THINK YOU'RE GONNA
BE THE LION'S LUNCH AND JESUS
00:16:49.23\00:16:52.03
CAN SAVE YOU 'CAUSE
HE'S A GOOD SHEPHERD.
00:16:52.03\00:16:55.33
NOW I HOPE I'M A BETTER
PASTOR THAN I AM A SHEPHERD.
00:16:55.33\00:16:59.80
I ACTUALLY DID A LITTLE
SHEPHERDING, BUT I WASN'T A VERY
00:16:59.80\00:17:04.36
GOOD SHEPHERD.
00:17:04.36\00:17:06.00
I'VE HAD BOTH SHEEP AND GOATS.
00:17:06.00\00:17:08.53
I HAVE BOTH SHEEP AND
GOATS HERE AT THE CHURCH TOO.
00:17:08.53\00:17:10.90
BUT I MEAN I ACTUALLY I
WORKED WITH THE NAVAJOS.
00:17:10.90\00:17:14.70
WHEN I WAS IN NEW MEXICO, MY
UNCLE HAD A TRADING POST OUT ON
00:17:14.70\00:17:19.43
THE RESERVATION AND THE NAVAJO'S
WERE PRINCIPALLY SHEPHERDS.
00:17:19.43\00:17:22.53
AND THEY WOULD WALK
AROUND AND SHEPHERD THEIR SHEEP.
00:17:22.53\00:17:26.13
I LIKE TO HERD THEM WITH
THE MOTORCYCLE, BUT THAT'D TEND
00:17:26.13\00:17:29.46
TO MAKE THEM VERY NERVOUS.
00:17:29.46\00:17:31.73
AND I'D TRY AND HELP THEM ROUND
UP THE SHEEP WITH A MOTORCYCLE,
00:17:31.73\00:17:35.26
AND THEY, I THINK, HALF OF THEM
DIED FROM STRESS WHEN I GOT DONE
00:17:35.26\00:17:38.70
WITH A SHEEP ROUNDUP.
00:17:38.70\00:17:40.43
BUT I ALSO HAD GOATS.
00:17:40.43\00:17:43.60
WHEN WE FIRST MOVED UP TO
COVELO, HAD TWO OR THREE GOATS
00:17:43.60\00:17:49.66
AT ONE TIME AND USED
TO MILK 'EM EVERY DAY.
00:17:49.66\00:17:53.20
AND IT'S KIND OF NICE
WHEN YOU HAVE FRESH GOAT MILK
00:17:53.20\00:17:57.56
IN YOUR CEREAL.
00:17:57.56\00:17:59.56
I WAS A LITTLE BIT PRIMITIVE
BACK THEN, THE GOATS ACTUALLY
00:17:59.56\00:18:01.73
HOPPED UP INTO THE HOUSE
AND WE MILKED THEM THERE.
00:18:01.73\00:18:04.20
BUT OUR HOUSE WASN'T MUCH SO
YOU'D UNDERSTAND IF YOU SAW IT.
00:18:04.20\00:18:09.26
BUT I REMEMBER I USED TO HAVE
THREE OR FOUR GOATS, AND THEN
00:18:09.26\00:18:12.93
ONE DAY ONE OF THEM
DISAPPEARED AND I DIDN'T KNOW
00:18:12.93\00:18:14.60
WHAT WAS GOING ON.
00:18:14.60\00:18:15.63
A FEW WEEKS LATER, ANOTHER
ONE DISAPPEARED, AND I THOUGHT
00:18:15.63\00:18:20.53
IT MUST HAVE WANDERED
OFF AND JOINED ANOTHER HERD.
00:18:20.53\00:18:22.63
I WASN'T VERY SMART.
00:18:22.63\00:18:23.40
I GREW UP IN NEW YORK CITY.
00:18:23.40\00:18:25.36
I WASN'T A VERY GOOD SHEPHERD.
00:18:25.36\00:18:27.06
THEN ONE NIGHT I WAS SLEEPING
AND THE GOATS USED TO SLEEP
00:18:27.06\00:18:32.43
UNDER THE HOUSE AND I
HEARD BANG, A BIG BANG.
00:18:32.43\00:18:38.76
IT SOUNDED LIKE THE HOUSE
HAD BEEN HIT BY A WRECKING BALL.
00:18:38.76\00:18:42.20
WHOLE HOUSE SHOOK.
00:18:42.20\00:18:44.00
I JUMPED UP AND
THEN I HEARD THE GOAT.
00:18:44.00\00:18:47.10
THIS WAS OUR GOAT,
LIBBY AND SHE WAS BLEATING--
00:18:47.10\00:18:55.50
JUST DISTRESSED TERRIBLY AND
IT WAS GETTING FURTHER AWAY AND
00:18:55.50\00:19:01.23
I REALIZED GOATS DON'T
WANDER AROUND AT FORGE AT NIGHT.
00:19:01.23\00:19:03.93
I THOUGHT A
MOUNTAIN LION HAD HER.
00:19:03.93\00:19:07.23
AND I LATER FOUND
OUT IT WAS A BEAR.
00:19:07.23\00:19:11.06
NOW I HAD A .22 OUT BEHIND THE
SEAT IN THE PICK-UP TRUCK 'CAUSE
00:19:11.06\00:19:17.26
THE KIDS WERE LITTLE AND I
DIDN'T WANT THEM TO GET TO IT.
00:19:17.26\00:19:19.90
AND I HEARD THE
GOAT, 80-POUND GOAT, BEING
00:19:19.90\00:19:24.53
CARRIED UP THE HILL PLEADING.
00:19:24.53\00:19:28.13
AND I FELT TERRIBLE BECAUSE I
THOUGHT I WANT TO SAVE HER, BUT
00:19:28.13\00:19:33.80
I DON'T WANT TO DIE AND I'M
NOT GONNA GO OUT THERE AND SHOOT
00:19:33.80\00:19:38.13
A MOUNTAIN LION OR A
BEAR, TRY AND TAKE AWAY ITS FOOD
00:19:38.13\00:19:41.06
WITH A .22 BECAUSE IF YOU
KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT BEARS,
00:19:41.06\00:19:45.43
YOU HIT 'EM WITH A .22
IT'S LIKE, YOU KNOW, A BB GUN,
00:19:45.43\00:19:48.20
IT JUST MAKES 'EM MAD.
00:19:48.20\00:19:50.23
AND SO WHENEVER I
HEAR THIS STORY ABOUT DAVID
00:19:50.23\00:19:54.00
GOING OUT AFTER A BEAR THAT
TOOK THE SHEEP, I THINK BOY,
00:19:54.00\00:20:00.36
HE REALLY WAS A GOOD
SHEPHERD OR HE WAS CRAZY BECAUSE
00:20:00.36\00:20:04.36
HE HAD A LOT OF SHEEP.
00:20:04.36\00:20:06.93
I WASN'T GONNA LAY MY
LIFE DOWN FOR MY LAST GOAT.
00:20:06.93\00:20:11.40
AND, YOU KNOW, THE WAY I USUALLY
MANAGED TO SOOTHE MY CONSCIOUS
00:20:11.40\00:20:14.46
WITH THIS IS BECAUSE AFTER
ALL IT WAS A GOAT AND, YOU KNOW,
00:20:14.46\00:20:18.60
THE GOATS ARE LOST
AND THE SHEEP ARE SAVED.
00:20:18.60\00:20:21.56
IF IT WAS A SHEEP, WHO KNOWS?
00:20:21.56\00:20:22.46
MAYBE I WOULD HAVE GONE.
00:20:22.46\00:20:24.66
BUT NOW WE KEEP
THE GUN IN THE HOUSE.
00:20:24.66\00:20:29.20
JUST LAST WEEK NEIGHBOR CALLED,
THIS WEEK NEIGHBOR CALLED,
00:20:29.20\00:20:32.26
"DOUG, I SAW A BEAR."
00:20:32.26\00:20:34.30
I SAID, WAS IT IN THE HOUSE
OR WAS IT OUT IN THE MEADOW?
00:20:34.30\00:20:36.76
"OH, IT WAS OUT IN THE MEADOW."
00:20:36.76\00:20:37.80
'CAUSE WE HAD BEARS TRYING TO
BREAK INTO OUR HOUSE UP THERE.
00:20:37.80\00:20:40.06
I READ THIS STORY AND
IT SAYS HE KILLED THE BEAR.
00:20:40.06\00:20:42.76
HE DIDN'T HAVE EVEN A .22
IT DOESN'T EVEN SAY HE USED
00:20:42.76\00:20:46.26
THE SLING.
00:20:46.26\00:20:48.00
YOU READ ON IT SAYS
HE TOOK IT BY THE BEARD.
00:20:48.00\00:20:51.96
NOW LIONS HAVE A BEARD, BUT I'VE
NEVER SEEN A BEAR'S BEARD BUT HE
00:20:51.96\00:20:56.46
GOT A HOLD OF IT SOMEHOW AND THE
SAME WAY THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD
00:20:56.46\00:20:59.83
CAME ON SAMSON, HE HAD
SUPERNATURAL STRENGTH, GOD DID
00:20:59.83\00:21:02.46
THAT FOR DAVID, AND HE LAID
HIS LIFE ON THE LINE TO SAVE
00:21:02.46\00:21:06.06
THE SHEEP.
00:21:06.06\00:21:07.43
SO HE WAS A SACRIFICIAL,
LOVING SHEPHERD LIKE OUR JESUS.
00:21:07.43\00:21:12.33
AREN'T YOU GLAD THAT
JESUS IS A GOOD SHEPHERD?
00:21:12.33\00:21:17.13
MOST OF YOU JUST LOST CONFIDENCE
IN ME AS A SHEPHERD, DIDN'T YOU?
00:21:17.13\00:21:23.20
AS LONG AS YOU'RE
NOT GOATS, YOU'RE OKAY.
00:21:23.20\00:21:26.90
THEY WERE BOTH ANOINTED, BOTH
DAVID AND JESUS WERE ANOINTED.
00:21:26.90\00:21:30.76
THE WORD CHRIST, CHRISTOS
MEANS ANOINTED IN GREEK.
00:21:30.76\00:21:36.43
MESSIAH MEANS
ANOINTED IN HEBREW.
00:21:36.43\00:21:39.73
DAVID WAS ANOINTED,
THAT'S WHEN HE FIRST APPEARS
00:21:39.73\00:21:42.33
HE'S ANOINTED BY SAMUEL.
00:21:42.33\00:21:45.53
AND HE WAS THE YOUNGEST OF
THE BRETHREN THAT WERE ANOINTED.
00:21:45.53\00:21:50.56
SAMUEL WAS HESITANT AT FIRST.
00:21:50.56\00:21:53.60
YOU REMEMBER JOHN THE BAPTIST
WHEN HE BAPTIZED JESUS, HE SAID,
00:21:53.60\00:21:55.96
"NO, YOU NEED TO BAPTIZE ME."
00:21:55.96\00:21:58.03
BUT HE SAID, "LET
IT BE SO FOR NOW."
00:21:58.03\00:22:02.70
1 SAMUEL 16:13, "SAMUEL TOOK THE
HORN OF OIL AND ANOINTED HIM IN
00:22:02.70\00:22:06.70
THE MIDST OF HIS BROTHERS, AND
THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD CAME ON
00:22:06.70\00:22:10.26
DAVID FROM THAT DAY FORWARD."
00:22:10.26\00:22:12.40
DAVID BEGINS HIS
MINISTRY AFTER HIS ANOINTING.
00:22:12.40\00:22:15.86
WHEN DOES CHRIST
BEGIN HIS MINISTRY?
00:22:15.86\00:22:18.40
AT HIS BAPTISM, THE HOLY SPIRIT
COMES DOWN UPON HIM AND THEN HE
00:22:18.40\00:22:22.03
BEGINS TO TEACH AND TO PREACH.
00:22:22.03\00:22:24.33
AFTER JESUS IS ANOINTED,
HE FIGHTS WITH THE DEVIL IN
00:22:24.33\00:22:28.86
THE WILDERNESS.
00:22:28.86\00:22:30.90
AFTER DAVID IS ANOINTED,
HE FIGHTS WITH A GIANT IN
00:22:30.90\00:22:35.20
THE WILDERNESS, AND WE'LL
GET TO THAT IN JUST A MINUTE.
00:22:35.20\00:22:38.63
THIS BATTLE IS GOING ON
NOW BETWEEN THE ISRAELITES
00:22:38.63\00:22:41.73
AND THE PHILISTINES.
00:22:41.73\00:22:42.93
YOU SEE JESUS SENDS DAVID
TO CARE FOR HIS BROTHERS THAT
00:22:42.93\00:22:47.83
ARE IN THE BATTLE, SENT BY
THE FATHER TO SEEK HIS BRETHREN.
00:22:47.83\00:22:53.03
YOU REMEMBER JOSEPH IS SENT BY
THE FATHER TO SEEK HIS BRETHREN.
00:22:53.03\00:22:58.03
1 SAMUEL 17:17, "THEN JESSE SAID
TO HIS SON, DAVID, TAKE NOW FOR
00:22:58.03\00:23:03.36
YOUR BROTHERS AN
EPHAH OF DRIED OF GRAIN
00:23:03.36\00:23:05.46
AND THESE TEN LOAVES AND RUN
TO YOUR BROTHERS AT THE CAMP.
00:23:05.46\00:23:09.76
SEE HOW YOUR BROTHERS ARE DOING
AND BRING BACK SOME ASSURANCE
00:23:09.76\00:23:12.56
FROM THEM."
00:23:12.56\00:23:14.53
AND SO HERE DAVID IS SENT
FROM THE ANCIENT FATHER SEEKING
00:23:14.53\00:23:19.63
THE WELFARE OF THE BROTHERS
AND HE SENDS PROVISIONS,
00:23:19.63\00:23:22.26
HE SENDS BREAD.
00:23:22.26\00:23:23.60
JESUS COMES FROM THE FATHER
TO US AND HE BRINGS BREAD,
00:23:23.60\00:23:26.96
DOESN'T HE?
00:23:26.96\00:23:28.23
BUT WHEN HE GETS THERE
TO CARE FOR HIS BROTHERS,
00:23:28.23\00:23:30.76
DO HIS BROTHERS SAY,
"OH, DAVID, WE LOVE YOU.
00:23:30.76\00:23:33.06
THAT'S SO GOOD,
THANK YOU SO MUCH"?
00:23:33.06\00:23:35.26
DO THEY RECEIVE HIM JOYFULLY
OR DO THIS MISUNDERSTAND
00:23:35.26\00:23:38.26
HIS MISSION?
00:23:38.26\00:23:40.13
WHEN JOSEPH CAME, DID HIS
BROTHERS UNDERSTAND HIS MISSION
00:23:40.13\00:23:42.46
OR DID THEY RECEIVE
HIM IN A NEGATIVE WAY?
00:23:42.46\00:23:47.56
1 SAMUEL, SO DAVID IS ALSO
MISUNDERSTOOD BY HIS BROTHERS.
00:23:47.56\00:23:52.23
1 SAMUEL 17:28, "NOW ELIAB,
THE OLDEST OF THE BROTHERS,
00:23:52.23\00:23:56.86
HEARD WHEN DAVID SPOKE
TO THE MEN AND ELIAB'S ANGER
00:23:56.86\00:24:00.33
WAS AROUSED AGAINST
DAVID AND HE SAID, 'WHY I'D
00:24:00.33\00:24:03.20
YOU COME DOWN HERE AND WITH
WHOM HAVE YOU LEFT THOSE FEW
00:24:03.20\00:24:06.33
SHEEP IN THE WILDERNESS?'"
ACCUSING HIM OF BEING
00:24:06.33\00:24:09.06
A BAD SHEPHERD.
00:24:09.06\00:24:10.20
"I KNOW YOUR PRIDE AND
INSOLENCE OF YOUR HEART
00:24:10.20\00:24:12.56
FOR YOU'RE COME
DOWN TO SEE THE BATTLE."
00:24:12.56\00:24:15.80
JUST TOTALLY MISUNDERSTOOD
THE HEART AND THE MISSION
00:24:15.80\00:24:19.50
OF HIS BROTHER.
00:24:19.50\00:24:20.96
HE CAME SEEKING HIS WELFARE.
00:24:20.96\00:24:22.93
WAS JESUS
MISUNDERSTOOD BY HIS BROTHERS?
00:24:22.93\00:24:26.86
JOHN, I'M TALKING
ABOUT NOT ONLY HIS OWN PEOPLE
00:24:26.86\00:24:29.70
BUT EVEN HIS OWN FAMILY.
00:24:29.70\00:24:31.10
JESUS HAD FOUR AT
LEAST HALF BROTHERS.
00:24:31.10\00:24:32.93
JOHN 7:4-5, "AND THEY SAID
TO JESUS, 'NOBODY DOES ANYTHING
00:24:32.93\00:24:39.30
IN SECRET, WHY HE HIMSELF
SEEKS TO BE KNOWN OPENLY.
00:24:39.30\00:24:42.30
IF YOU DO THESE THINGS,
SHOW YOURSELF TO THE WORLD.'
00:24:42.30\00:24:44.63
FOR EVEN HIS BROTHERS
DID NOT BELIEVE IN HIM."
00:24:44.63\00:24:48.53
NOT AT FIRST BUT
THEY LATER BELIEVED.
00:24:48.53\00:24:51.93
DID DAVID'S
BROTHERS LATER BELIEVE?
00:24:51.93\00:24:55.26
THEY DID.
00:24:55.26\00:24:56.56
MATTER OF FACT THEY BECAME PART
OF HIS MIGHTY MEN OR HIS ARMY.
00:24:56.56\00:24:59.23
AND THEN OF COURSE THERE'S THAT
GREAT STORY OF DAVID, AND I WISH
00:24:59.23\00:25:02.70
I COULD SPEND MORE TIME ON THIS,
WHERE DAVID SEES GOLIATH DOWN
00:25:02.70\00:25:07.03
THERE WHO FOR 40 DAYS COMES
OUT IN THE WILDERNESS AND DEFIES
00:25:07.03\00:25:12.16
THE ARMIES OF GOD.
00:25:12.16\00:25:13.96
AFTER THE ANOINTING OF
JESUS, DOES HE GO OUT TO
00:25:13.96\00:25:17.66
THE WILDERNESS FOR 40 DAYS?
00:25:17.66\00:25:20.26
DOES HE HAVE A BATTLE WITH
THE DEVIL, BIGGEST GIANT OF ALL,
00:25:20.26\00:25:24.46
THE GIANT OF EVIL?
00:25:24.46\00:25:26.63
AND WHAT IS IT THAT JESUS
USES TO BRING DOWN THE GIANT?
00:25:26.63\00:25:32.63
A STONE.
00:25:32.63\00:25:34.60
THE WORD OF GOD IS THE ROCK.
00:25:34.60\00:25:37.00
THAT'S THE ROCK THAT BRINGS
DOWN THAT IMAGE IN DANIEL 2.
00:25:37.00\00:25:41.16
CHRIST IS THE
WORD, ARE WE RIGHT?
00:25:41.16\00:25:43.86
ARE WE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE?
00:25:43.86\00:25:45.23
THE WORD IS A ROCK.
00:25:45.23\00:25:47.50
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ARE WRITTEN
ON STONE, AND THAT'S WHAT'S
00:25:47.50\00:25:51.93
USED TO BRING DOWN THE GIANT.
00:25:51.93\00:25:54.56
AND SO HE HAS THIS
BATTLE WITH THE GIANT.
00:25:54.56\00:25:58.43
JESUS MEETS EVERY TEMPTATION AND
HE SAYS, "AWAY WITH YOU SATAN,
00:25:58.43\00:26:02.50
FOR IT IS WRITTEN, YOU
SHALL WORSHIP THE LORD GOD
00:26:02.50\00:26:05.10
AND HIM ONLY SHALL YOU SERVE."
00:26:05.10\00:26:07.23
1 SAMUEL 17:50, "SO DAVID
PREVAILED OVER THE PHILISTINE
00:26:07.23\00:26:13.00
WITH A SLING AND A STONE, AND HE
STRUCK THE PHILISTINE AND KILLED
00:26:13.00\00:26:17.63
HIM BUT THERE WAS NO
SWORD IN THE HAND OF DAVID.
00:26:17.63\00:26:20.96
THEREFORE DAVID RAN AND STOOD
OVER THE PHILISTINE AND TOOK
00:26:20.96\00:26:24.20
HIS SWORD AND DREW IT OUT
OF ITS SHEATHE AND KILLED HIM
00:26:24.20\00:26:28.06
AND CUT OFF HIS HEAD."
00:26:28.06\00:26:29.13
SO HE WAS INITIALLY
KNOCKED OUT WITH A ROCK.
00:26:29.13\00:26:31.26
HE'S UNCONSCIOUS,
BUT HE DISPATCHES HIM
00:26:31.26\00:26:34.20
PERMANENTLY WITH HIS OWN SWORD.
00:26:34.20\00:26:36.93
WHAT IS THE SWORD BIBLICALLY?
00:26:36.93\00:26:40.23
THE WORD OF GOD,
HEBREWS 4, EPHESIANS 6 IS QUICK
00:26:40.23\00:26:45.70
AND POWERFUL AND SHARPER
THAN ANY TWO-EDGED SWORD.
00:26:45.70\00:26:49.03
SO STONE IS THE WORD OF
GOD, SWORD IS THE WORD OF GOD.
00:26:49.03\00:26:52.53
DAVID DEFEATS THE
GIANT WITH THE WORD GOD.
00:26:52.53\00:26:54.66
HOW DO WE DEFEAT
THE GIANT, THE DEVIL?
00:26:54.66\00:26:57.26
A MIGHTY FORTRESS IS
OUR GOD, YOU SUNG THAT SONG.
00:26:57.26\00:27:00.63
ONE LITTLE WORLD WILL FELL
HIM, THE WORD OF GOD BRINGS THEM
00:27:00.63\00:27:05.66
DOWN.
00:27:05.66\00:27:06.33
ISN'T IT INTERESTING HE
TAKES GOLIATH'S OWN SWORD
00:27:06.33\00:27:10.26
TO DESTROY HIM?
00:27:10.26\00:27:12.26
THE CROSS THAT THE DEVIL
USED TO KILL JESUS IS THE WEAPON
00:27:12.26\00:27:16.70
THAT DESTROYS THE DEVIL.
00:27:16.70\00:27:19.60
IN CRUCIFYING CHRIST ON
THE CROSS, THE DEVIL SAID,
00:27:19.60\00:27:23.00
"WE'RE GONNA USE
THIS CROSS TO KILL 'EM."
00:27:23.00\00:27:24.76
JESUS TAKES THE CROSS
AND HE USES IT LIKE A SWORD
00:27:24.76\00:27:26.86
TO KILL THE DEVIL.
00:27:26.86\00:27:28.53
THAT'S WHAT ENDS
UP DEFEATING HIM.
00:27:28.53\00:27:30.63
GOLIATH IS
KILLED BY HIS OWN SWORD.
00:27:30.63\00:27:33.40
SATAN'S CROSS KILLS SATAN.
00:27:33.40\00:27:37.23
AND THEN YOU KNOW I LOVE THIS
PART OF THE STORY, AFTER DAVID
00:27:37.23\00:27:42.96
KILLS THE GIANT, YOU REALIZE
YOU'VE GOTTA HAVE THIS MENTAL
00:27:42.96\00:27:46.26
PICTURE HERE.
00:27:46.26\00:27:47.53
YOU'VE GOT THE VALLEY OF ELAH.
00:27:47.53\00:27:49.03
YOU'VE GOT ALL THE ARMY OF
THE PHILISTINES ARE GATHERED ON
00:27:49.03\00:27:51.86
ONE MOUNTAINSIDE WATCHING
THEIR CHAMPION, AND YOU'VE GOT
00:27:51.86\00:27:55.80
ALL THE ISRAELITES,
THEY'RE VERY APPREHENSIVE.
00:27:55.80\00:27:58.23
SOMEONE WAS PROBABLY TAKING BETS
OVER THERE ON THE SIDE OF ISRAEL
00:27:58.23\00:28:00.96
ABOUT IS THIS WHIPPER SNAPPER
THAT'S GOING DOWN THERE, IS HE
00:28:00.96\00:28:04.73
GONNA BE ABLE TO TAKE THE GIANT.
00:28:04.73\00:28:06.90
AND THEY PROBABLY HAD
PRETTY BIG ODDS GOING THAT DAVID
00:28:06.90\00:28:10.20
WAS ABOUT TO GET SQUASHED.
00:28:10.20\00:28:12.66
MATTER OF FACT, THEY PROBABLY
HAD HUNDRED TO ONE ODDS IN FAVOR
00:28:12.66\00:28:16.26
OF THE SHEPHERD
AGAINST THE GIANT.
00:28:16.26\00:28:19.16
THEY DIDN'T HAVE A LOT OF
CONFIDENCE AND THEN ALL OF
00:28:19.16\00:28:22.86
A SUDDEN, THEY SEE
DAVID RUN TOWARDS THE GIANT.
00:28:22.86\00:28:24.83
THEY MAYBE CAN'T HEAR
ALL THE CONVERSATION GOING ON
00:28:24.83\00:28:27.10
BETWEEN GOLIATH AND
DAVID, BUT THEY SEE DAVID.
00:28:27.10\00:28:30.26
HE THROWS DOWN HIS STAFF
AND HE RUNS TOWARDS THE GIANT
00:28:30.26\00:28:32.70
AND HE SNAPS THE STONE.
00:28:32.70\00:28:34.60
THE GIANT ROCKS,
WOBBLES, THUNDERS TO THE GROUND.
00:28:34.60\00:28:39.90
THE BIGGER THEY ARE,
THE HARDER THEY FALL.
00:28:39.90\00:28:42.13
DAVID RUNS UP TO HIM
WITHOUT ANY HESITATION.
00:28:42.13\00:28:44.43
THE ARMOR BEARER
FOR THE GIANT, HE RUNS.
00:28:44.43\00:28:47.46
REMEMBER GOLIATH COMES
OUT WITH ALL THIS POMP.
00:28:47.46\00:28:49.76
HE'S GOT AN ARMOR
BEARER HOLDING HIS SHIELD.
00:28:49.76\00:28:52.00
WHEN THE ARMOR BEARER SEES
GOLIATH GO DOWN, HE PROBABLY
00:28:52.00\00:28:54.03
DROPS THE SHIELD
AND RUNS FOR HIS LIFE.
00:28:54.03\00:28:57.00
DAVID THEN TAKES THE SWORD
OF THE GIANT WHICH IS AS LONG AS
00:28:57.00\00:29:00.50
DAVID AND CHOPS OFF HIS HEAD.
00:29:00.50\00:29:05.70
NOW THE ISRAELITE SOLDIERS
AND DAVID'S BROTHERS WHO HAD
00:29:05.70\00:29:10.26
BEEN WATCHING THIS THINKING
"OH, THIS IS GONNA BE BAD.
00:29:10.26\00:29:12.60
THIS IS GONNA LOOK--
THIS IS GONNA BE UGLY.
00:29:12.60\00:29:14.93
OH, HE'S GONNA POOR SHEPHERD.
00:29:14.93\00:29:17.26
WHY'D SAUL SEND HIM OUT THERE?"
00:29:17.26\00:29:19.00
ALL OF A SUDDEN, THEIR
WHOLE DISPOSITION CHANGES.
00:29:19.00\00:29:22.43
THEY SHOUT FOR JOY
AND THEY SAY, "WE WON!"
00:29:22.43\00:29:31.56
YOU NOTICE WHAT HAPPENS?
00:29:31.56\00:29:32.86
DAVID'S VICTORY
BECOMES THEIR VICTORY.
00:29:32.86\00:29:36.86
THEY TAKE
CREDIT FOR HIS VICTORY.
00:29:36.86\00:29:39.63
AND THEY ARE THEN RALLIED.
00:29:39.63\00:29:41.36
NOTICE THEY DON'T JUST
STAND THERE AND SAY, "WE WON."
00:29:41.36\00:29:44.56
THEY THEN GET INVOLVED IN THE
BATTLE, AND THEY START TO CHASE
00:29:44.56\00:29:48.46
THE PHILISTINES NOW AND
THEY HAVE A GREAT VICTORY.
00:29:48.46\00:29:52.30
SO THIS IS VERY
PRACTICAL FOR YOU AND ME.
00:29:52.30\00:29:55.90
HOW DO YOU AND I ENJOY
THE VICTORY OF CHRIST OVER
00:29:55.90\00:29:58.80
THE DEVIL?
00:29:58.80\00:30:00.13
WHEN WE SEE, JUST LIKE
THE ISRAELITES SAW, THAT JESUS
00:30:00.13\00:30:04.46
DID WIN, HE DEFEATED
THE DEVIL, CHRIST ROSE.
00:30:04.46\00:30:08.80
HE SAID, "IT IS FINISHED."
00:30:08.80\00:30:10.20
HE SAID, "ALL HAIL."
00:30:10.20\00:30:11.40
HE'S WON.
00:30:11.40\00:30:12.83
THE DEVIL'S DOOM IS SEALED.
00:30:12.83\00:30:15.50
BUT EVEN THOUGH GOLIATH WAS
DEAD, WERE THE SOLDIERS, THE
00:30:15.50\00:30:18.16
PHILISTINES STILL ON THE HILL?
00:30:18.16\00:30:20.46
WE CLAIM THAT VICTORY AND THEN
WE NEED TO TAKE UP THE BATTLE
00:30:20.46\00:30:23.76
WITH DAVID.
00:30:23.76\00:30:25.76
DAVID THEN LED THEM AGAINST THE
PHILISTINES, AND SO WE JOIN HIM
00:30:25.76\00:30:29.80
IN THAT BATTLE.
00:30:29.80\00:30:30.80
SO THIS IS A WONDERFUL ANALOGY
WHERE CHRIST IS A TYPE OF DAVID
00:30:30.80\00:30:33.93
OR DAVID IS A TYPE OF CHRIST AND
YOU SAY, "THE VICTORY OF DAVID
00:30:33.93\00:30:37.70
BECAME THE
VICTORY OF THE ISRAELITES.
00:30:37.70\00:30:39.43
THE VICTORY OF CHRIST BECOMES
OUR VICTORY, AND WE CAN SAY
00:30:39.43\00:30:42.73
PRAISE THE LORD, WE WON."
00:30:42.73\00:30:45.73
AND THEN YOU FOLLOW
YOUR CAPTAIN INTO BATTLE.
00:30:45.73\00:30:49.26
YOU DON'T JUST STAND THERE.
00:30:49.26\00:30:50.93
WHEN JESUS OVERCAME,
WE BECOME OVERCOMERS.
00:30:50.93\00:30:55.40
DAVID STRIPPED THE
ENEMY OF HIS ARMOR.
00:30:55.40\00:30:59.13
1 SAMUEL 17:54, DAVID
TOOK THE HEAD OF THE PHILISTINE
00:30:59.13\00:31:04.16
AND BROUGHT IT TO JERUSALEM AND
HE PUT HIS ARMOR IN HIS TENT.
00:31:04.16\00:31:08.56
YOU KNOW THE BIBLE TELLS US
THAT JESUS STRIPPED THE ARMOR
00:31:08.56\00:31:11.70
FROM THE DEVIL.
00:31:11.70\00:31:13.80
LUKE 11:20, "BUT IF I CAST OUT
DEMONS WITH THE FINGER OF GOD,
00:31:13.80\00:31:18.70
SURELY THE KINGDOM OF
GOD HAS COME UPON YOU.
00:31:18.70\00:31:21.70
WHEN A STRONG MAN FULLY ARMED
GUARDS HIS OWN PALACE AND HIS
00:31:21.70\00:31:26.30
GOODS, THEY'RE AT PEACE.
00:31:26.30\00:31:28.43
BUT WHEN A STRONGER THAN HE
COMES UPON HIM AND OVERCOMES
00:31:28.43\00:31:31.70
HIM, HE TAKES FROM HIM ALL
HIS ARMOR IN WHICH HE TRUSTED
00:31:31.70\00:31:35.80
AND DIVIDES HIS SPOILS.
00:31:35.80\00:31:37.86
THIS IS WHAT
DAVID DID WITH GOLIATH.
00:31:37.86\00:31:39.80
THIS IS WHAT JESUS
DID WITH THE DEVIL.
00:31:39.80\00:31:41.76
YOU AND I ARE
CAPTIVES OF THE DEVIL.
00:31:41.76\00:31:43.76
HE LIBERATES US.
00:31:43.76\00:31:45.13
HE TAKES AWAY THE DEVIL'S ARMOR.
00:31:45.13\00:31:46.96
BEFORE CHRIST CAME, MAN HAS
NO POWER TO RESIST THE DEVIL.
00:31:46.96\00:31:52.70
BUT THERE'S A CRACK IN THE
DEVIL'S ARMOR BECAUSE OF CHRIST.
00:31:52.70\00:31:57.30
YOU REMEMBER WHEN THE ARROW
FOUND THE CRACK IN AHAB'S ARMOR?
00:31:57.30\00:32:01.23
IT WAS THE PROPHECY OF MICAIAH,
THE WORD OF GOD, THAT'S WHO
00:32:01.23\00:32:06.03
FOUND THE CRACK IN THE ARMOR.
00:32:06.03\00:32:07.56
JESUS TAKES AWAY
THE DEVIL'S ARMOR.
00:32:07.56\00:32:10.46
HE IS DEFENSELESS.
00:32:10.46\00:32:11.63
YOU AND I CAN HAVE
A VICTORY OVER HIM.
00:32:11.63\00:32:15.56
AFTER DAVID WINS THAT BATTLE FOR
A LITTLE WHILE HE FOLLOWS SAUL
00:32:15.56\00:32:18.93
AND PRETTY SOON SAUL BECOMES
DEMON POSSESSED AND JEALOUS
00:32:18.93\00:32:21.46
AND DAVID, HE TRIES TO PIN
DAVID TO THE WALL A FEW TIMES.
00:32:21.46\00:32:25.10
HE'S NOT ACCEPTED BY HIS
OWN PEOPLE BECAUSE OF JEALOUSY.
00:32:25.10\00:32:29.23
AND HE BASICALLY
HAS TO WORK AS AN EXILE.
00:32:29.23\00:32:34.00
JESUS HAD TO WORK AS AN
EXILE FROM JERUSALEM BECAUSE OF
00:32:34.00\00:32:37.83
THE JEALOUSY OF THE PRIESTS.
00:32:37.83\00:32:40.30
EVEN PILATE KNEW THAT HE
HAD BEEN HANDED OVER BECAUSE OF
00:32:40.30\00:32:43.13
JEALOUSY.
00:32:43.13\00:32:45.03
WHEN SAUL HEARD THE PEOPLE SING,
SAUL HAS KILLED HIS THOUSANDS,
00:32:45.03\00:32:50.06
DAVID HIS TEN THOUSANDS.
00:32:50.06\00:32:52.90
HE HEARD THE WOMEN SINGING THAT.
00:32:52.90\00:32:54.43
THEY WERE THE CHEERLEADERS.
00:32:54.43\00:32:55.30
WHEN THEY CAME BACK FROM
BATTLE, SAUL BEGAN TO BROOD WITH
00:32:55.30\00:32:57.96
JEALOUSY EVEN THOUGH HE
SHOULD HAVE REJOICED AND SAID,
00:32:57.96\00:33:00.20
"YOU KNOW, PRAISE THE LORD.
00:33:00.20\00:33:01.53
I'M GLAD THAT YOU'VE BEEN CALLED
BY GOD AND THAT HE'S BLESSING
00:33:01.53\00:33:04.60
YOU AND THAT WE'VE GOT
THE VICTORY BECAUSE OF YOU.
00:33:04.60\00:33:07.36
HE WAS JEALOUS."
00:33:07.36\00:33:09.03
WHEN THE PEOPLE BEGAN TO FOLLOW
JESUS INSTEAD OF THE SCRIBES AND
00:33:09.03\00:33:11.93
THE LAWYERS AND THE
PHARISEES, THEY WERE JEALOUS.
00:33:11.93\00:33:15.86
JESUS BASICALLY HAD TO
WORK OUTSIDE WITH THE POOR,
00:33:15.86\00:33:19.53
GET PERSECUTED IN ONE
CITY, HE WENT TO ANOTHER.
00:33:19.53\00:33:22.10
HE LIVED LIKE AN EXILE FROM
JERUSALEM BECAUSE OF JEALOUSY.
00:33:22.10\00:33:27.20
DAVID WAS A KING IN EXILE.
00:33:27.20\00:33:29.36
1 SAMUEL 22:1-2 DAVID
LEFT GATH AND HE ESCAPED
00:33:29.36\00:33:34.53
TO THE CAVE OF ADULLAM.
00:33:34.53\00:33:36.16
WHEN HIS BROTHERS AND HIS
FATHER'S HOUSE HEARD ABOUT IT,
00:33:36.16\00:33:39.03
THEY WENT DOWN TO HIM THERE.
00:33:39.03\00:33:40.53
AND THEN I LIKE THIS, THIS
IS A BEAUTIFUL ILLUSTRATION OF
00:33:40.53\00:33:43.66
HOW DAVID IS A TYPE OF CHRIST.
00:33:43.66\00:33:45.36
I'VE SHARED THIS WITH YOU BEFORE
BUT I'M TRUSTING YOU FORGOT.
00:33:45.36\00:33:49.50
ALL THOSE WHO ARE IN DISTRESS
OR IN DEBT OR DISCONTENTED,
00:33:49.50\00:33:55.63
HOW'D YOU LIKE TO
RAISE UP A CHURCH AND SAY,
00:33:55.63\00:33:58.40
"ALL RIGHT, WE'RE ADVERTISING.
00:33:58.40\00:33:59.40
LET'S SEE IF WE CAN ASSEMBLE
ALL THOSE WHO ARE IN DEBT,
00:33:59.40\00:34:02.20
ALL THOSE WHO ARE DISTRESSED,
ALL THOSE WHO ARE DISCONTENTED.
00:34:02.20\00:34:07.43
NOW LET'S BUILD UP A CHURCH."
00:34:07.43\00:34:09.80
WOULD YOU TRY TO MARKET
YOUR CHURCH TO THAT KIND OF
00:34:09.80\00:34:12.70
A MOTLEY CREW?
00:34:12.70\00:34:15.83
WHO WAS IT THAT
GATHERED AROUND DAVID?
00:34:15.83\00:34:19.23
THERE'S ALL THESE PEOPLE
WHO WERE SORT OF THE OUTCASTS OF
00:34:19.23\00:34:22.06
SOCIETY, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
00:34:22.06\00:34:24.80
AFTER FOLLOWING DAVID, IT THEN
SAYS THEY WERE THE MIGHTY MEN.
00:34:24.80\00:34:28.40
THEY WENT FROM BEING
THIS MOTLEY CREW OF PEOPLE
00:34:28.40\00:34:31.73
THAT HAD BILL
COLLECTORS FOLLOWING THEM AROUND
00:34:31.73\00:34:34.83
AND CALLING THEM UP ALL THE
TIME AND THEY WERE JUST UNHAPPY
00:34:34.83\00:34:37.70
WITH THE GOVERNMENT.
00:34:37.70\00:34:38.73
THEY WERE DISCONTENTED AND
THEY DON'T LIKE THE WAY THINGS
00:34:38.73\00:34:42.03
ARE GOING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN,
HE BECOMES A CAPTAIN OVER THEM,
00:34:42.03\00:34:45.56
KIND OF LIKE ROBIN HOOD,
AND THE MEN THAT LIVED OUT THERE
00:34:45.56\00:34:50.70
IN THE WOODS, SHERWOOD
FOREST, HE BECAME THEIR LEADER.
00:34:50.70\00:34:55.23
ABOUT 400 MEN WERE WITH HIM.
00:34:55.23\00:34:57.26
WHAT IS THE CHURCH COMPOSED OF?
00:34:57.26\00:34:59.93
HAVE YOU READ WHAT PAUL
SAID, 1 CORINTHIANS 1:26?
00:34:59.93\00:35:04.10
"FOR YOU SEE YOUR
CALLING, BRETHREN.
00:35:04.10\00:35:06.40
NOT MANY WISE ACCORDING TO THE
FLESH, NOT MANY MIGHTY, NOT MANY
00:35:06.40\00:35:10.73
NOBLE ARE CALLED BUT GOD HAS
CHOSEN THE FOOLISH THINGS OF THE
00:35:10.73\00:35:15.13
WORLD TO PUT TO SHAME THE WISE.
00:35:15.13\00:35:17.66
AND GOD HAS CHOSEN THE
WEAK THINGS OF THE WORLD TO PUT
00:35:17.66\00:35:20.03
TO SHAME THE
THINGS THAT ARE MIGHTY.
00:35:20.03\00:35:21.93
AND GOD HAS CHOSEN THE
BASE THINGS OF THE WORLD AND THE
00:35:21.93\00:35:24.56
THINGS THAT ARE DESPISED GOD
HAS CHOSEN AND THE THINGS WHICH
00:35:24.56\00:35:27.60
ARE NOT TO BRING TO
PASS THE THINGS THAT ARE."
00:35:27.60\00:35:30.63
I MEAN THINK ABOUT DAVID.
00:35:30.63\00:35:33.16
SAMUEL GOES TO PICK A KING
AND HE LOOKS AT THE TALL, DARK,
00:35:33.16\00:35:36.23
HANDSOME BROTHERS OF DAVID
AND HE SAYS, "WOW, HE LOOKS LIKE
00:35:36.23\00:35:39.90
HE'S KING MATERIAL.
00:35:39.90\00:35:41.33
SURELY THE LORD'S
ANOINTED IS BEFORE ME.
00:35:41.33\00:35:43.50
JESSE, GET YOUR SONS.
00:35:43.50\00:35:44.43
ONE OF THEM'S
GONNA BE ANOINTED."
00:35:44.43\00:35:46.16
SO JESSE GETS THE
SEVEN GOOD-LOOKING ONES AND
00:35:46.16\00:35:48.53
HE LEAVES THE DAYDREAMER, DAVID,
SUNBURNED, GOT BRIGHT EYES
00:35:48.53\00:35:53.50
BUT YOU KNOW HE'S
NOT AS BIG AS ELIAB.
00:35:53.50\00:35:56.46
HE'S NOT AS BROAD
SHOULDERED AS MAYBE SOME OF
00:35:56.46\00:35:58.90
THE OTHER BROTHERS.
00:35:58.90\00:36:00.66
HE'S A POET OUT THERE
SLINGING HIS SLING AND PLAYING
00:36:00.66\00:36:04.43
ON HIS HARP.
00:36:04.43\00:36:05.90
AND LET'S LEAVE
DAVID OUT WHERE HE IS.
00:36:05.90\00:36:08.63
BRING THE OTHER BOYS.
00:36:08.63\00:36:10.03
WHICH ONE DOES GOD CHOOSE?
00:36:10.03\00:36:12.33
THE ONE YOU'D NEVER
THINK WOULD SUCCEED.
00:36:12.33\00:36:17.13
ISN'T THAT HOW GOD OPERATES?
00:36:17.13\00:36:20.50
WALKS BY, SEES THESE FISHERMEN.
00:36:20.50\00:36:22.80
THERE'S THIS ONE BOMBASTIC
LOUD-MOUTHED FISHERMAN NAMED
00:36:22.80\00:36:26.33
PETER, ALWAYS
TELLING THE BIGGEST STORIES.
00:36:26.33\00:36:28.96
SAYS, "FOLLOW ME, I'LL
MAKE YOU A FISHER OF MEN."
00:36:28.96\00:36:31.30
IS THAT WHERE YOU--WOULDN'T YOU
GO TO THE SEMINARY TO GET YOUR
00:36:31.30\00:36:33.80
PREACHERS UP IN JERUSALEM?
00:36:33.80\00:36:36.30
WHY WOULD YOU GO TO A
FISHING VILLAGE IN CAPERNAUM?
00:36:36.30\00:36:39.73
NOW I SAY THIS NOT TO
BE DISPARAGING OF PREACHERS
00:36:39.73\00:36:44.73
THAT GO TO SEMINARY, I
SAY THIS TO ENCOURAGE YOU
00:36:44.73\00:36:49.10
THAT HE CAN USE YOU.
00:36:49.10\00:36:52.43
DON'T THINK "OH, YOU KNOW, I'M
IN DEBT OR I'M NOT QUALIFIED."
00:36:52.43\00:36:56.16
IF YOU FOLLOW JESUS AND MAKE HIM
YOUR CAPTAIN, LOOK AT WHAT JESUS
00:36:56.16\00:36:59.90
DID WITH THAT MOTLEY CREW.
00:36:59.90\00:37:01.90
HE BUILT A KINGDOM.
00:37:01.90\00:37:05.56
THEY BECAME HIS MIGHTY MEN.
00:37:05.56\00:37:07.56
THEY WERE PART OF HIS CABINET.
00:37:07.56\00:37:09.26
LOOK AT WHAT JESUS DID WITH THE
12 APOSTLES, TURNED THE WORLD
00:37:09.26\00:37:12.76
UPSIDE DOWN, OVERTHREW
PAGANISM IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE,
00:37:12.76\00:37:17.00
DISPLACED IT WITH CHRISTIANITY.
00:37:17.00\00:37:19.36
WITH THOSE, THERE
WERE A FEW EDUCATED.
00:37:19.36\00:37:23.30
THAT'S WHY PAUL SAID NOT MANY.
00:37:23.30\00:37:24.73
PAUL WAS EDUCATED.
00:37:24.73\00:37:26.13
THERE WERE A FEW BUT NOT MANY.
00:37:26.13\00:37:28.70
GOD'S OFTEN CHOSEN
THE FOOLISH THINGS.
00:37:28.70\00:37:31.63
AS YOU STUDY THE LIFE OF
DAVID, YOU SEE THAT LIKE JESUS,
00:37:31.63\00:37:36.23
HE TOOK ATTENTION AND
TIME TO CARE FOR HIS PARENTS.
00:37:36.23\00:37:42.33
WHEN HE REALIZED THAT HE
HAD A PRICE ON HIS HEAD, THAT
00:37:42.33\00:37:46.33
KING SAUL WAS GONNA HUNT
HIM EVERYWHERE IN THE LAND OF
00:37:46.33\00:37:48.63
ISRAEL, HE KNEW THAT SOON SAUL
WAS GONNA GO AFTER HIS PARENTS.
00:37:48.63\00:37:51.86
AFTER ALL, KING SAUL KILLED
THE WHOLE VILLAGE OF PRIESTS
00:37:51.86\00:37:55.33
JUST BECAUSE OF DAVID.
00:37:55.33\00:37:58.10
HE THOUGHT "MY
FAMILY'S NOT SAFE."
00:37:58.10\00:38:00.36
1 SAMUEL 22:3, "THEN DAVID WENT
FROM THERE TO MIZPAH OF MOAB."
00:38:00.36\00:38:04.93
DON'T FORGET, DAVID HAD A
GREAT GRANDMOTHER THERE WAS
00:38:04.93\00:38:07.60
A MOABITESS, HER NAME WAS RUTH.
00:38:07.60\00:38:10.36
SHE'S IN THE BIBLE.
00:38:10.36\00:38:11.46
JESSE WAS RELATED TO RUTH.
00:38:11.46\00:38:14.33
AND SO THE MOABITES, SORT
OF YOU KNOW THEY TOOK HIM IN.
00:38:14.33\00:38:17.60
AND DAVID SENT HIS FATHER
AND HIS MOTHER, HIS FATHER'S
00:38:17.60\00:38:22.36
NOW GETTING OLD.
00:38:22.36\00:38:23.60
HE SAID, YOU GO STAY
WITH THE KING OF MOAB,
00:38:23.60\00:38:25.60
YOU'LL BE SAFE THERE.
00:38:25.60\00:38:26.46
YOU WON'T BE SAFE IN ISRAEL."
00:38:26.46\00:38:27.66
DAVID CONTINUED TO KIND OF HANG
AROUND IN ISRAEL, BUT HE WANTED
00:38:27.66\00:38:30.86
TO MAKE SURE THAT HIS
PARENTS WERE CARED FOR.
00:38:30.86\00:38:33.20
WHAT WAS ONE OF THE FINAL THINGS
THAT JESUS DID ON THE CROSS?
00:38:33.20\00:38:36.50
DID HE CARE FOR HIS MOTHER?
00:38:36.50\00:38:38.53
HE SAID TO JOHN, THE APOSTLE, HE
SAID, "SON, BEHOLD YOUR MOTHER.
00:38:38.53\00:38:45.36
WOMAN, BEHOLD YOUR SON" MEANING
TAKE MY MOM INTO YOUR HOUSE,
00:38:45.36\00:38:48.56
WATCH OUT FOR HER.
00:38:48.56\00:38:49.66
TAKE CARE OF HER.
00:38:49.66\00:38:51.50
THEY THREATENED TO STONE
JESUS AND THEY THREATENED
00:38:51.50\00:38:55.20
TO STONE DAVID.
00:38:55.20\00:38:57.40
NOW I READ THIS TO YOU LAST
WEEK 'CAUSE THEY ALSO DID THAT
00:38:57.40\00:38:59.56
WITH MOSES.
00:38:59.56\00:39:01.73
REMEMBER THEY TOOK UP
STONES TWO OCCASIONS TO STONE
00:39:01.73\00:39:05.13
THEIR MESSIAH, JESUS.
00:39:05.13\00:39:09.40
1 SAMUEL 30:6, THIS ALL HAPPENS
WHEN DAVID COMES BACK FROM
00:39:09.40\00:39:15.16
FIGHTING THE PHILISTINES.
00:39:15.16\00:39:18.03
THEIR FAMILY, ALL THE FAMILIES
OF THE MIGHTY MEN THAT HAD BEEN
00:39:18.03\00:39:21.33
FOLLOWING HIM ARE ATTACKED
BY THE AMALEKITES AND THEY'RE
00:39:21.33\00:39:24.13
ALL CARRIED AWAY, AND
THEY'RE ALSO BROKENHEARTED.
00:39:24.13\00:39:27.40
THEY'VE ALL LOST THEIR
WIVES AND THEIR CHILDREN
00:39:27.40\00:39:29.03
THAT HAD BEEN LEFT BEHIND.
00:39:29.03\00:39:30.20
NOW THEY'RE BLAMING DAVID.
00:39:30.20\00:39:31.46
THEY SAID, "LOOK, WE FOLLOWED
YOU FROM PLACE TO PLACE AND YOU
00:39:31.46\00:39:33.23
HAVE THIS BRIGHT IDEA THAT
WE'D GO OUT AND FIGHT WITH THE
00:39:33.23\00:39:35.36
PHILISTINES AND PHILISTINES
TOLD US WE WEREN'T GOOD ENOUGH
00:39:35.36\00:39:37.66
TO FIGHT.
00:39:37.66\00:39:38.36
WE COME BACK AND NOW
OUR FAMILIES ARE GONE."
00:39:38.36\00:39:39.93
THEY'RE ALL DISCOURAGED.
00:39:39.93\00:39:41.20
THEY'RE BROKENHEARTED AND
THEY'RE READY TO STONE DAVID.
00:39:41.20\00:39:44.96
JUST LIKE JESUS,
STONE THEIR LEADER SOON
00:39:44.96\00:39:47.53
AS SOMETHING GOES WRONG.
00:39:47.53\00:39:49.96
ANOTHER CHARACTERISTIC THAT YOU
SEE IN THE LIFE OF DAVID THAT
00:39:49.96\00:39:52.53
IS VERY MUCH LIKE JESUS, DAVID
WAS VERY KIND TO HIS ENEMIES.
00:39:52.53\00:40:00.80
FIRST OF ALL, KING
SAUL WANTED TO KILL 'EM.
00:40:00.80\00:40:03.63
WHEN DAVID HAD OPPORTUNITY
TO KILL SAUL, IT SAYS IN
00:40:03.63\00:40:07.06
1 SAMUEL 26, "DAVID
SAID TO ABISHUA, HE WANTED
00:40:07.06\00:40:11.70
TO CHOP OFF SAUL'S HEAD.
00:40:11.70\00:40:12.86
DO NOT DESTROY HIM.
00:40:12.86\00:40:14.16
WHO CAN STRETCH OUT HIS
HAND AGAINST THE LORD'S ANOINTED
00:40:14.16\00:40:16.83
AND BE GUILTLESS?"
00:40:16.83\00:40:18.66
LUKE 9:55-56, "JESUS TURNED AND
REBUKED JAMES AND JOHN WHEN THEY
00:40:18.66\00:40:24.93
WANTED TO BRING FIRE DOWN FROM
HEAVEN ON SOME PEOPLE THAT WERE
00:40:24.93\00:40:27.46
UNKIND, SOME SAMARITANS
THAT WERE UNKIND TO JESUS
00:40:27.46\00:40:31.00
AND HE SAID, 'YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT MANNER OF SPIRIT YOU'RE OF.
00:40:31.00\00:40:33.80
THE SON OF MAN DID NOT
COME TO DESTROY MEN'S LIVES.'"
00:40:33.80\00:40:36.56
SOME OF YOU REMEMBER WHEN
DAVID WAS FLEEING FROM ABSALOM
00:40:36.56\00:40:40.06
THAT A BENJAMITE BY THE NAME
OF SHIMEA WAS OUT THERE CURSING
00:40:40.06\00:40:43.66
DAVID AND THROWING STONES
AND ABISHAI SAID, "LET ME GO CUT
00:40:43.66\00:40:46.70
OFF THE HEAD OF THIS DEAD DOG."
00:40:46.70\00:40:48.16
AND DAVID SAID LET HIM CURSE.
00:40:48.16\00:40:51.13
HE TURNED THE OTHER CHEEK.
00:40:51.13\00:40:53.13
DAVID HAD THAT MEEKNESS OF
CHRIST, THAT FORGIVENESS OF
00:40:53.13\00:40:57.03
CHRIST EVEN WHEN HIS OWN
SON WAS TRYING TO KILL HIM.
00:40:57.03\00:41:01.06
DAVID SAID, "DEAL GENTLY WITH
THE YOUNG MAN EVEN WITH ABSALOM
00:41:01.06\00:41:03.53
FROM MY SAKE."
00:41:03.53\00:41:04.80
DAVID SHOWED WHEN ABNER HAD
JOINED SAUL IN TRYING TO KILL
00:41:04.80\00:41:10.76
DAVID, DAVID FORGAVE ABNER.
00:41:10.76\00:41:13.40
WHEN AMASA HAD JOINED
ABSALOM IN TRYING TO KILL DAVID,
00:41:13.40\00:41:17.70
AFTER THE BATTLE, DAVID SAID,
"I'M WILLING TO FORGIVE YOU."
00:41:17.70\00:41:21.10
HE WAS EXTREMELY MERCIFUL
AND FORGIVING, BUT DAVID COULD
00:41:21.10\00:41:25.33
ALSO BE A PRETTY FIERCE
JUDGE WHEN SOMEBODY WAS INVOLVED
00:41:25.33\00:41:30.30
IN HIGH-HANDED GUILT.
00:41:30.30\00:41:32.93
WHEN SOMEBODY BEGAN TO BRAG THAT
THEY KILLED KING SAUL, DAVID
00:41:32.93\00:41:37.00
SAID, "WERE YOU NOT AFRAID
TO LIFT UP YOUR HAND AGAINST
00:41:37.00\00:41:39.33
THE LORD'S ANOINTED?"
00:41:39.33\00:41:40.43
AND HE TOLD ONE OF
HIS SOLDIERS, KILL HIM.
00:41:40.43\00:41:42.40
EXECUTE HIM.
00:41:42.40\00:41:43.03
BY HIS OWN ADMISSION, HE KILLED
THE KING AND SO YOU KNOW HE
00:41:43.03\00:41:46.50
COULD ALSO BE A JUDGE IN THAT
RESPECT AND BE PRETTY FIERCE.
00:41:46.50\00:41:54.43
HE BEGAN HIS WORK, HIS
LIFE WORK AT THE AGE OF 30.
00:41:54.43\00:41:58.53
DAVID CAME TO THE
THRONE AT 30 YEARS OF AGE.
00:41:58.53\00:42:02.63
YOU READ THAT IN 2 SAMUEL
5:4, "DAVID WAS 30 YEARS OLD
00:42:02.63\00:42:06.96
WHEN HE BEGAN TO REIGN
AND HE REIGNED 40 YEARS."
00:42:06.96\00:42:09.96
IT'S INTERESTING JESUS
BEGAN HIS MINISTRY AT AGE 30.
00:42:09.96\00:42:13.53
YOU FIND THAT IN LUKE 3:23
AND IT WAS 40 YEARS AFTER CHRIST
00:42:13.53\00:42:17.73
BEGAN HIS MINISTRY,
JERUSALEM WAS DESTROYED.
00:42:17.73\00:42:22.10
WHY DO THEY DO THAT?
00:42:22.10\00:42:23.30
NUMBERS 4:3, "THERE WAS A LAW IN
THE OLD TESTAMENT OF MOSES FROM
00:42:23.30\00:42:27.70
30 YEARS OLD AND ABOVE
EVEN TO 50 YEARS, ALL WHO ENTER
00:42:27.70\00:42:31.93
THE SERVICE TO DO THE
WORK IN THE TABERNACLE."
00:42:31.93\00:42:34.20
YOU COULD NOT SERVE AS A PRIEST
UNTIL YOU WERE AT LEAST 30.
00:42:34.20\00:42:38.03
YOU WEREN'T REALLY CONSIDERED
A MAN UNTIL YOU WERE ABOUT
00:42:38.03\00:42:40.83
30 YEARS OF AGE.
00:42:40.83\00:42:42.20
YOU WERE STILL
CONSIDERED A YOUTH.
00:42:42.20\00:42:43.86
BY THE WAY, WHEN DAVID KILLED
GOLIATH, HE WASN'T 30 YEARS OLD
00:42:43.86\00:42:47.06
YET, BUT HE
WASN'T A 10-YEAR-OLD.
00:42:47.06\00:42:49.46
HE WAS STILL
PROBABLY IN HIS EARLY 20s.
00:42:49.46\00:42:51.56
HE'S A YOUNG MAN THEN.
00:42:51.56\00:42:53.20
SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT THESE
COMPARISONS, YOU SEE DAVID
00:42:53.20\00:42:55.43
WAS A PROPHET.
00:42:55.43\00:42:56.76
JESUS IS A PROPHET.
00:42:56.76\00:42:58.50
DAVID WAS A KING.
00:42:58.50\00:42:59.90
WAS JESUS A KING?
00:42:59.90\00:43:01.23
IS JESUS A KING?
00:43:01.23\00:43:02.53
DAVID WAS A
JUDGE, JESUS IS A JUDGE.
00:43:02.53\00:43:05.86
DAVID WAS DESPISED AND REJECTED,
BUT HE FINALLY BECAME KING.
00:43:05.86\00:43:10.06
JESUS WAS DESPISED AND REJECTED,
BUT HE FINALLY BECAME KING.
00:43:10.06\00:43:14.16
DAVID WAS A
CAPTAIN AS WAS JESUS.
00:43:14.16\00:43:16.56
DAVID NEVER LOST A BATTLE.
00:43:16.56\00:43:19.06
JESUS NEVER LOST A BATTLE.
00:43:19.06\00:43:22.13
ISN'T IT GOOD TO KNOW THAT
YOU CAN FIGHT SIDE BY SIDE WITH
00:43:22.13\00:43:24.93
JESUS AND NOT LOSE A BATTLE?
00:43:24.93\00:43:26.86
YOU KNOW THERE'S SO MANY
STORIES I COULD TELL YOU.
00:43:26.86\00:43:29.76
HOW MANY OF YOU REMEMBER
THE STORY OF DAVID'S MIGHTY MEN?
00:43:29.76\00:43:32.30
READ THROUGH SOME OF THOSE.
00:43:32.30\00:43:33.33
BUT ONE IN PARTICULAR, DAVID
HAD A MIGHTY MAN BY THE NAME OF
00:43:33.33\00:43:35.76
ELEAZAR AND THEY WERE
BATTLING WITH THE PHILISTINES.
00:43:35.76\00:43:40.30
AND THE PHILISTINES
HAD OUTNUMBERED THEM
00:43:40.30\00:43:42.70
AND THE BATTLEGROUND
WAS THIS BARLEY FIELD.
00:43:42.70\00:43:45.86
AND EVEN DAVID'S MIGHTY
MEN AND THE OTHER SOLDIERS WERE
00:43:45.86\00:43:49.00
RETREATING 'CAUSE THEY SAW
THAT THEY WERE LOSING GROUND.
00:43:49.00\00:43:52.16
THEY THOUGHT "WE BETTER
RETREAT TO A BETTER POSITION."
00:43:52.16\00:43:54.26
AND EVERYBODY RETREATED
EXCEPT DAVID AND ELEAZAR.
00:43:54.26\00:43:58.63
AND THEY STATIONED THEMSELVES ON
THIS HILL IN THIS BARLEY FIELD
00:43:58.63\00:44:02.96
AND THEY FOUGHT BACK TO BACK.
00:44:02.96\00:44:06.36
AND IT SAYS THEY ENDED UP, I
MEAN I REALLY WOULD LOVE TO SEE
00:44:06.36\00:44:10.83
A YOUTUBE VIDEO OF THAT BATTLE,
OF DAVID AND ELEAZAR FIGHTING
00:44:10.83\00:44:17.06
BACK TO BACK AGAINST THE
PHILISTINES WHIPPING THEIR
00:44:17.06\00:44:19.56
SWORDS AROUND LIKE A
HARVESTING SCYTHE, MOWING DOWN
00:44:19.56\00:44:23.60
THE PHILISTINES.
00:44:23.60\00:44:24.80
YOU KNOW WHAT IT SAYS?
00:44:24.80\00:44:25.70
THE LORD BROUGHT A
GREAT VICTORY THAT DAY THROUGH
00:44:25.70\00:44:27.43
JUST THE TWO OF THEM.
00:44:27.43\00:44:29.06
AS LONG AS YOU START--ELEAZAR
SAID, "LOOK, EVERYONE'S
00:44:29.06\00:44:32.16
RETREATING BUT
DAVID'S STILL HERE.
00:44:32.16\00:44:33.63
I'M NOT LEAVING MY KING."
00:44:33.63\00:44:35.66
AND IT GOES ON TO
SAY IN THAT STORY.
00:44:35.66\00:44:38.20
BY THE WAY, HIS NAME IS ELEAZAR,
THE SON OF DODO, SO IT SHOULD BE
00:44:38.20\00:44:40.76
EASY TO FIND IN THE BIBLE.
00:44:40.76\00:44:43.33
AND THAT KIND OF FAITH IS SORT
OF EXTINCT ALSO, BUT IT SAYS
00:44:43.33\00:44:47.33
HE CLAVE TO HIS SWORD.
00:44:47.33\00:44:49.30
HIS HAND CLAVE TO HIS SWORD.
00:44:49.30\00:44:51.53
WHAT IS A SWORD?
00:44:51.53\00:44:52.83
THE WORD OF GOD.
00:44:52.83\00:44:53.70
HE SAW EVERYBODY FLED
AND LEFT DAVID BUT HE SAID,
00:44:53.70\00:44:55.93
"I'M NOT GONNA LEAVE DAVID.
00:44:55.93\00:44:56.73
IF YOU STICK WITH
DAVID, YOU WON'T LOSE."
00:44:56.73\00:44:58.86
YOU AND JESUS, YOUR SON OF
DAVID ARE ALWAYS A MAJORITY.
00:44:58.86\00:45:03.63
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AFRAID.
00:45:03.63\00:45:04.76
HE NEVER LOST A BATTLE.
00:45:04.76\00:45:06.30
SO WHEN YOU'RE TEMPTED, WHEN
YOU'RE ATTACKED BY THE DEVIL,
00:45:06.30\00:45:08.66
IF YOU JUST STICK WITH
JESUS, YOU WILL NOT LOSE.
00:45:08.66\00:45:11.70
HANG ON TO YOUR SWORD.
00:45:11.70\00:45:13.23
HANG ON TO JESUS AND YOU
CAN TAKE ON A WHOLE ARMY OF
00:45:13.23\00:45:16.50
PHILISTINES AND BE VICTORIOUS.
00:45:16.50\00:45:20.70
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THE
PEOPLE OF DAVID WERE HIS BODY.
00:45:20.70\00:45:25.56
JESUS TELLS US
THAT WE ARE HIS BODY.
00:45:25.56\00:45:29.36
YOU READ ABOUT THIS IN 1
CHRONICLES 11:1, "THEN ALL
00:45:29.36\00:45:34.13
ISRAEL CAME TOGETHER TO DAVID
AT HEBRON SAYING, 'INDEED WE ARE
00:45:34.13\00:45:37.30
YOUR BONE AND YOUR FLESH.'"
YOU KNOW, JESUS EVEN USED
00:45:37.30\00:45:41.30
THOSE WORDS WHEN HE ROSE.
00:45:41.30\00:45:42.70
HE SAID, "FEEL ME A SPIRIT
DOESN'T HAVE FLESH AND BONE
00:45:42.70\00:45:45.23
AS YOU SEE THAT I HAVE."
00:45:45.23\00:45:46.96
AND CHRIST SAYS NOW WE
ARE--ACTUALLY PAUL SAYS IN
00:45:46.96\00:45:50.93
1 CORINTHIANS 12:27, "NOW
YOU ARE THE BODY OF CHRIST
00:45:50.93\00:45:55.40
AND MEMBERS INDIVIDUALLY."
00:45:55.40\00:45:57.16
THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL SAID
TO DAVID, "WE ARE YOUR BODY."
00:45:57.16\00:46:00.86
THE CHURCH SAYS TO CHRIST, "WE
ARE YOUR BODY," SAME LANGUAGE.
00:46:00.86\00:46:06.03
NOW AS YOU MOVE ON AND
THERE'S A LOT MORE, LIKE I SAID,
00:46:06.03\00:46:08.80
THIS IS A FLYOVER.
00:46:08.80\00:46:10.03
YOU OUGHT TO DO YOUR OWN STUDY.
00:46:10.03\00:46:10.96
DO ME A FAVOR, I'M
LENGTHENING MY LIST.
00:46:10.96\00:46:13.50
SOME PEOPLE CAME TO ME
DURING THE WEEK AND THEY SAY,
00:46:13.50\00:46:15.53
"PASTOR DOUG, YOU
LEFT OUT SOME POINTS,
00:46:15.53\00:46:17.43
AND I'VE ADDED THEM TO MY NOTES
'CAUSE I MIGHT DO THIS AGAIN
00:46:17.43\00:46:19.86
SOMEDAY."
00:46:19.86\00:46:20.66
SO IF YOU FIND OTHER ANALOGIES
AND PARALLELS BETWEEN DAVID
00:46:20.66\00:46:23.73
AND JESUS, I HOPE
YOU'LL SHARE THEM WITH ME.
00:46:23.73\00:46:26.80
DAVID IS THEN BETRAYED BY A DEAR
FRIEND, AND WHEN THE BETRAYAL
00:46:26.80\00:46:33.86
DOESN'T WORK OUT THE WAY
HE EXPECTED, HE HANGS HIMSELF.
00:46:33.86\00:46:38.56
IS JESUS BETRAYED BY A
CLOSE FRIEND WHEN IT BACKFIRES?
00:46:38.56\00:46:43.43
YOU KNOW JUDAS DIDN'T THINK
THAT CHRIST WOULD BE KILLED.
00:46:43.43\00:46:46.00
JUDAS THOUGHT THAT JESUS WOULD
PERFORM ANOTHER MIRACLE, DELIVER
00:46:46.00\00:46:48.33
HIMSELF AND HE WAS GONNA
FORCE CHRIST INTO THE THRONE OF
00:46:48.33\00:46:50.73
ISRAEL, AND THEN HE COULD
BE TREASURER AND EVERYONE WOULD
00:46:50.73\00:46:53.36
GIVE HIM CREDIT.
00:46:53.36\00:46:54.46
AND THAT'S WHY WHEN HE WAS IN
THE TEMPLE AND HE SAW THAT THEY
00:46:54.46\00:46:57.80
WERE GONNA EXECUTE HIM AND
CHRIST WAS DOING NOTHING TO SAVE
00:46:57.80\00:47:00.13
HIMSELF, HE WENT AND
HE THREW THE MONEY DOWN.
00:47:00.13\00:47:03.43
HE SAID, "I BETRAYED
INNOCENT BLOOD" AND HE WENT OUT
00:47:03.43\00:47:06.26
AND HUNG HIMSELF.
00:47:06.26\00:47:07.60
BUT ISN'T IT INTERESTING THAT
BOTH WERE BETRAYED BY A CLOSE
00:47:07.60\00:47:12.30
FRIEND IN JERUSALEM, THE
BETRAYAL BACKFIRES AND THEY
00:47:12.30\00:47:16.16
HANG THEMSELVES?
00:47:16.16\00:47:18.30
AHITHOPHEL WAS THE COUNSELOR AND
FRIEND OF DAVID WHO BETRAYED HIM
00:47:18.30\00:47:22.80
AND WENT WITH THE
REBELLION OF ABSALOM.
00:47:22.80\00:47:26.43
AFTER DAVID SAW THAT HIS SON
WAS REBELLING, HE WENT AND HE
00:47:26.43\00:47:31.40
CROSSED THE KIDRON VALLEY.
00:47:31.40\00:47:33.26
AFTER JESUS WAS
BETRAYED, HE WENT AND CROSSED
00:47:33.26\00:47:37.46
THE KIDRON VALLEY.
00:47:37.46\00:47:39.03
2 SAMUEL 15:23, "ALL THE COUNTRY
WEPT WITH A LOUD VOICE AND ALL
00:47:39.03\00:47:44.50
THE PEOPLE CROSSED OVER AND
THE KING HIMSELF CROSSED OVER
00:47:44.50\00:47:47.20
THE BOOK OF KIDRON AND THE
PEOPLE CROSSED OVER TOWARDS
00:47:47.20\00:47:50.20
THE WAY OF THE WILDERNESS.
00:47:50.20\00:47:51.36
THOSE WHO STILL FOLLOWED
JESUS CROSSED OVER WITH HIM.
00:47:51.36\00:47:54.90
THOSE WHO FOLLOWED DAVID,
CROSSED THE KIDRON WITH HIM."
00:47:54.90\00:47:58.76
BY THE KIDRON, BY THE WAY,
THE KIDRON IS WHERE THE BLOOD
00:47:58.76\00:48:02.70
RAN DURING THE PASSOVER.
00:48:02.70\00:48:05.16
AND SO WHEN CHRIST CROSSED
THE KIDRON DURING THE PASSOVER,
00:48:05.16\00:48:07.80
WHEN HE DIED, HE
CROSSED OVER THE BLOOD.
00:48:07.80\00:48:10.16
HE PASSED OVER THE BLOOD.
00:48:10.16\00:48:12.26
JOHN 18 WHEN JESUS SPOKE THESE
WORDS, HE WENT OUT WITH HIS
00:48:12.26\00:48:15.23
DISCIPLES OVER THE BROOK KIDRON,
AND THERE WAS A GARDEN WHERE HIS
00:48:15.23\00:48:19.26
DISCIPLES WENT."
00:48:19.26\00:48:20.36
DID JESUS WEEP IN THAT
GARDEN ON THE MOUNT OF OLIVES
00:48:20.36\00:48:23.56
IN THE KIDRON?
00:48:23.56\00:48:25.30
CHRIST DID ALSO WEEP
ON THE MOUNT OF OLIVES.
00:48:25.30\00:48:30.70
IN THE GARDEN THERE, JESUS
EXPRESSES A WILLINGNESS TO DIE
00:48:30.70\00:48:37.23
FOR HIS PEOPLE.
00:48:37.23\00:48:39.50
HE SAYS HE HAS A
WILLINGNESS TO DO GOD'S WILL.
00:48:39.50\00:48:43.06
JESUS SAYS, "NOT MY
WILL, YOURS BE DONE."
00:48:43.06\00:48:46.43
LISTEN TO WHAT DAVID SAYS
WHEN HE PRAYS IN THE GARDEN.
00:48:46.43\00:48:49.96
HE SAYS, "LORD, IF YOU HAVE
NO DELIGHT IN ME--" BY THE WAY,
00:48:49.96\00:48:54.20
THIS IS 2 SAMUEL 15:26.
00:48:54.20\00:48:56.96
"IF YOU HAVE NO
DELIGHT IN ME, HERE I AM.
00:48:56.96\00:49:00.40
LET HIM DO TO ME
AS SEEMS GOOD TO HIM."
00:49:00.40\00:49:03.10
DAVID WAS TOTALLY SURRENDERED
TO THE WILL OF GOD THEN WHEN
00:49:03.10\00:49:06.73
ABSALOM REBELLED, AND THAT'S
ANOTHER WAY IN WHICH HE IS LIKE
00:49:06.73\00:49:10.86
THEM.
00:49:10.86\00:49:11.80
JESUS WEEPS ON THE MOUNT
OF OLIVES OVER JERUSALEM.
00:49:11.80\00:49:16.13
DOES EVERYONE
REMEMBER THAT VERSE?
00:49:16.13\00:49:18.23
LUKE 19:37, "NOW AS HE
APPROACHED AND HE NEARED THE
00:49:18.23\00:49:22.06
DECENT OF THE MOUNT OF OLIVES,
WHEN HE APPROACHED HE SAW
00:49:22.06\00:49:25.26
THE CITY AND HE WEPT OVER IT."
00:49:25.26\00:49:27.83
2 SAMUEL 15 KING DAVID, "HE WENT
UP BY THE ASCENT OF THE MOUNT OF
00:49:27.83\00:49:32.16
OLIVES, HE WEPT AS HE
WENT UP HAVING HIS HEAD COVERED
00:49:32.16\00:49:36.36
AND BAREFOOT."
00:49:36.36\00:49:38.26
ALL THESE
PARALLELS THAT YOU FIND.
00:49:38.26\00:49:41.96
DAVID WAS WILLING TO
DIE FOR HIS CHILDREN.
00:49:41.96\00:49:45.56
WHEN ABSALOM IS SLAIN IN THE
BATTLE, YOU KNOW THE STORY, BIG
00:49:45.56\00:49:48.86
BATTLE WHEN ABSALOM GATHERS THE
ARMY TOGETHER AND DAVID AND HIS
00:49:48.86\00:49:52.53
MIGHTY MEN ARE DIVIDED
IN THREE GROUPS AND THEY
00:49:52.53\00:49:56.46
GO OUT AGAINST ABSALOM.
00:49:56.46\00:49:59.20
YOU GET TO REVELATION, AND YOU
FIND THAT GOD THE FATHER, SON
00:49:59.20\00:50:02.53
AND SPIRIT TAKE ON THE THREEFOLD
ENTITY OF THE BEAST, THE DRAGON
00:50:02.53\00:50:06.80
AND THE FALSE PROPHET.
00:50:06.80\00:50:08.23
THIS GREAT BATTLE HAPPENS IN
ISRAEL AND IN THE BATTLE, BOTH
00:50:08.23\00:50:13.16
GROUPS CLAIM TO SERVE JEHOVAH.
00:50:13.16\00:50:16.96
IN THE LAST DAYS, WILL BOTH
GROUPS CLAIM TO BE CHRISTIAN?
00:50:16.96\00:50:20.60
YOU'LL HAVE THE BEAST IN HIS
IMAGE AND IT'S A COUNTERFEIT FOR
00:50:20.60\00:50:23.10
GOD AND HIS
PEOPLE TO HAVE HIS SEAL.
00:50:23.10\00:50:26.23
THERE'S THIS GREAT
BATTLE THAT TAKES PLACE.
00:50:26.23\00:50:29.53
BEAUTIFUL ABSALOM WHO ONCE LIVED
IN THE PALACE AND THE SON OF
00:50:29.53\00:50:34.73
DAVID, LUCIFER, BEAUTIFUL FROM
THE CROWN OF HIS TO THE SOLE OF
00:50:34.73\00:50:39.43
HIS FOOT, REBELS AGAINST HIS
CREATOR WITHOUT CAUSE AND LEADS
00:50:39.43\00:50:45.33
THE ANGELS IN A REBELLION.
00:50:45.33\00:50:46.96
AND THERE'S GONNA BE A SHOWDOWN
AT ARMAGEDDON BETWEEN THE DEVIL
00:50:46.96\00:50:49.93
AND HIS ANGELS AND THE HUMANS
THAT FOLLOW SATAN AND CHRIST
00:50:49.93\00:50:53.03
AND HIS ARMY.
00:50:53.03\00:50:54.30
THAT BATTLE THAT TOOK PLACE THAT
DAY WITH--ON THE LAND OF ISRAEL
00:50:54.30\00:50:58.86
IS A PARALLEL FOR
THAT FINAL BATTLE.
00:50:58.86\00:51:01.30
WHO WINS THAT BATTLE?
00:51:01.30\00:51:03.16
DAVID'S FORCES.
00:51:03.16\00:51:05.33
DOES DAVID REJOICE WHEN
EVERYBODY IS SLAIN, WHEN
00:51:05.33\00:51:08.40
THE ENEMY IS SLAIN, WHEN ABSALOM
IS SLAIN OR DOES HE WEEP?
00:51:08.40\00:51:13.16
YOU KNOW THEY'LL COME A DAY WHEN
IT'S GONNA BE A TRAGEDY WHEN WE
00:51:13.16\00:51:16.53
SEE ALL THOSE THAT ARE SLAIN.
00:51:16.53\00:51:18.16
GOD WIPES THE TEARS FROM
OUR EYES IN REVELATION 21 AFTER
00:51:18.16\00:51:21.76
THE 1,000 YEARS.
00:51:21.76\00:51:24.26
THERE MAY BE SOME INITIAL
SADNESS IF WE GET TO THE KINGDOM
00:51:24.26\00:51:27.03
AND SEE THERE ARE PEOPLE THERE--
PEOPLE THAT ARE MISSING THAT WE
00:51:27.03\00:51:30.50
DIDN'T THINK WOULD BE THERE.
00:51:30.50\00:51:32.60
SOME OF US MIGHT WEEP WHEN
WE SEE PEOPLE THERE WE HOPED
00:51:32.60\00:51:34.46
WOULDN'T BE THERE.
00:51:34.46\00:51:35.60
BUT-- "OH, NO, NOT THEM, LORD.
00:51:35.60\00:51:39.63
THEY'LL RUIN EVERYTHING."
00:51:39.63\00:51:42.30
NO, I'M JUST TEASING, BUT WE'RE
GONNA SEE SOME SADNESS WHEN
00:51:42.30\00:51:47.53
WE SEE SOME PEOPLE MISSING.
00:51:47.53\00:51:48.90
DAVID WEPT.
00:51:48.90\00:51:51.26
NOW LISTEN TO THE PRAYER OF
DAVID WHEN HE WEEPS OVER HIS
00:51:51.26\00:51:54.16
LOST SON.
00:51:54.16\00:51:55.60
1 SAMUEL 18:33, "THE KING WAS
DEEPLY MOVED AND HE WENT UP OVER
00:51:55.60\00:52:01.63
HIS CHAMBER, OVER THE GATE,
AND HE WEPT AND AS HE WENT,
00:52:01.63\00:52:04.33
HE SAID THUS."
00:52:04.33\00:52:05.50
HE'S WAILING AND WEEPING.
00:52:05.50\00:52:07.23
"OH, MY SON, ABSALOM.
00:52:07.23\00:52:09.46
MY SON, MY SON, ABSALOM.
00:52:09.46\00:52:12.30
IF I ONLY I HAD DIED IN
YOUR PLACE, OH, ABSALOM,
00:52:12.30\00:52:16.20
MY SON, MY SON."
00:52:16.20\00:52:17.76
IS JESUS WILLING TO DIE IN
THE PLACE OF HIS REBELLIOUS
00:52:17.76\00:52:23.10
CHILDREN AND TAKE OUR PLACE?
00:52:23.10\00:52:26.40
HE'S SAYING,
"I'M WILLING TO PERISH
00:52:26.40\00:52:28.40
THAT YOU MIGHT NOT PERISH."
00:52:28.40\00:52:31.03
DAVID HAD THAT HEART OF GOD.
00:52:31.03\00:52:32.50
YOU KNOW THAT'S WHY THE BIBLE
SAYS IN SPITE OF THE MISTAKES
00:52:32.50\00:52:35.76
THAT DAVID MADE,
DAVID WAS FORGIVEN.
00:52:35.76\00:52:38.66
MATTER OF FACT IT'S AN
INTERESTING VERSE THAT YOU FIND.
00:52:38.66\00:52:42.10
1 KINGS 14:8, DID DAVID SIN?
00:52:42.10\00:52:47.23
DID DAVID--I MEAN YOU KNOW IT
TELLS ABOUT DAVID AND BATHSHEBA.
00:52:47.23\00:52:50.66
IT TELLS ABOUT DAVID BRINGING
THE ARK UP INAPPROPRIATELY AND
00:52:50.66\00:52:54.06
SOMEONE DIED BECAUSE OF THAT.
00:52:54.06\00:52:55.60
IT TELLS ABOUT
DAVID NUMBERING ISRAEL.
00:52:55.60\00:52:57.03
DAVID MADE
MISTAKES, PROBABLY SEVERAL.
00:52:57.03\00:52:59.83
HE LIED AND
PRETENDED HE WAS CRAZY.
00:52:59.83\00:53:01.73
HE'S DROOLING ON HIS
BEARD AND FOAMING AT THE MOUTH
00:53:01.73\00:53:03.80
AND ACTING CRAZY.
00:53:03.80\00:53:04.70
HE WASN'T CRAZY, CRAZY
LIKE A FOX AS THEY SAY.
00:53:04.70\00:53:07.93
AND SO DAVID HAD HIS
PROBLEMS, BUT LISTEN HOW GOD
00:53:07.93\00:53:10.70
LOOKS AT DAVID.
00:53:10.70\00:53:12.40
1 KINGS 14:8, "AND YET YOU HAVE
NOT BEEN AS MY SERVANT, DAVID,
00:53:12.40\00:53:17.23
WHO KEPT MY COMMANDMENTS, WHO
FOLLOWED ME WITH ALL HIS HEART
00:53:17.23\00:53:21.86
TO DO ONLY WHAT
WAS RIGHT IN MY EYES."
00:53:21.86\00:53:25.70
HAD GOD FORGIVEN ALL OF DAVID'S
SINS BECAUSE OF HIS SACRIFICE?
00:53:25.70\00:53:31.23
AND HE LOOKED UPON DAVID, HE
SAYS, "I ONLY SEE THAT DAVID DID
00:53:31.23\00:53:36.20
GOOD BECAUSE DAVID ENDED WELL."
00:53:36.20\00:53:39.93
YOU MAY FALL ALONG THE WAY IN
THE RACE AND YOU MAY EVEN HAVE
00:53:39.93\00:53:43.53
A BAD START, BUT YOU
WANT TO HAVE A GOOD FINISH.
00:53:43.53\00:53:46.70
AND SO GOD LOOKED UPON DAVID AND
THE RECORD THAT GOD GIVES ABOUT
00:53:46.70\00:53:50.76
DAVID, HE SAYS, "HE
FOLLOWED ME WITH ALL HIS HEART."
00:53:50.76\00:53:53.53
THE REASON THAT GOD COULD SAY
DAVID WAS A KING AFTER MY HEART
00:53:53.53\00:53:56.30
IS 'CAUSE DAVID
HAD A SACRIFICIAL LOVE.
00:53:56.30\00:54:00.33
DAVID IS A WONDERFUL
TYPE OF JESUS IN THE BIBLE.
00:54:00.33\00:54:02.90
HOW OFTEN DO YOU FIND SOMEBODY
WITH SUCH A COMPLEX CHARACTER
00:54:02.90\00:54:05.96
WHO IN ONE
VIGNETTE, YOU SEE DAVID.
00:54:05.96\00:54:09.10
HE'S ON A HILL
THERE WITH HIS SHEEP.
00:54:09.10\00:54:10.73
HE'S STRUMMING HIS HARP AND
HE'S BEING POETIC AND MELANCHOLY
00:54:10.73\00:54:13.66
AND NEXT YOU SEE HIM
HE'S ON THE BATTLEFIELD.
00:54:13.66\00:54:16.23
HE'S GOT THIS OVERSIZED SWORD.
00:54:16.23\00:54:17.50
HE'S HACKING OFF A GIANT'S HEAD.
00:54:17.50\00:54:19.66
THOSE PICTURES DON'T USUALLY GO
TOGETHER IN OUR MINDS ABOUT THE
00:54:19.66\00:54:21.80
SAME PERSON DOING
THOSE THINGS, RIGHT?
00:54:21.80\00:54:24.20
DAVID IS A VERY COMPLEX
CHARACTER IN THAT HE WAS A POET,
00:54:24.20\00:54:28.03
HE WAS A SHEPHERD, HE'S A KING,
HE'S A JUDGE, HE'S A BUILDER,
00:54:28.03\00:54:30.73
HE'S AN
ADMINISTRATOR, HE'S A DREAMER.
00:54:30.73\00:54:33.73
HE WAS A ROMANTIC.
00:54:33.73\00:54:37.06
I MEAN ALL THAT, DAVID, VERY
COMPLEX, BUT THEY'RE ALL GIVING
00:54:37.06\00:54:40.36
DIFFERENT SIDES OF OUR
JESUS, THE SON OF DAVID.
00:54:40.36\00:54:45.20
YOU KNOW I THINK THIS IS
BEAUTIFUL THAT HE WAS WILLING TO
00:54:45.20\00:54:49.33
DIE FOR HIS CHILDREN.
00:54:49.33\00:54:51.16
NOW HERE'S THE PART THAT I DON'T
WANT YOU TO MISS, DAVID LEFT
00:54:51.16\00:54:54.70
JERUSALEM BECAUSE THERE WAS A
REBELLION AND WHEN THIS BATTLE
00:54:54.70\00:55:00.86
OF ARMAGEDDON IS
FOUGHT, SO TO SPEAK,
00:55:00.86\00:55:04.46
DAVID THEN COMES BACK AS KING.
00:55:04.46\00:55:07.90
HE WAS A KING THAT
WAS BASICALLY REJECTED,
00:55:07.90\00:55:10.66
BUT A KING THAT COMES BACK.
00:55:10.66\00:55:12.56
IS OUR KING DAVID COMING BACK,
OUR KING JESUS COMING BACK?
00:55:12.56\00:55:17.23
THE SON OF DAVID.
00:55:17.23\00:55:18.76
AND WHEN HE CAME BACK, HE
REWARDED THOSE WHO HAD SUPPORTED
00:55:18.76\00:55:22.36
HIM WHEN HE WAS REJECTED.
00:55:22.36\00:55:25.16
THERE'S SOME WHO STAYED BEHIND
IN JERUSALEM AND DAVID FLED
00:55:25.16\00:55:28.40
BECAUSE HE WAS REJECTED.
00:55:28.40\00:55:30.36
WHEN THE NATION WAS KIDNAPPED,
SOME STAYED BEHIND BUT REMAINED
00:55:30.36\00:55:33.53
LOYAL TO HIM.
00:55:33.53\00:55:35.03
THEY WERE THE MINORITY.
00:55:35.03\00:55:36.60
AND SOME, WHO TURNED ON HIM
WHEN IT WAS CONVENIENT, WHEN HE
00:55:36.60\00:55:40.56
CAME BACK, HE REWARDED THOSE
WHO WERE LOYAL, HE JUDGED THOSE
00:55:40.56\00:55:46.76
WHO HAD BEEN UNFAITHFUL.
00:55:46.76\00:55:49.06
OUR SON OF DAVID IS
COMING BACK AND HE'S GONNA BRING
00:55:49.06\00:55:52.80
THE NEW JERUSALEM WHEN HE COMES.
00:55:52.80\00:55:55.76
YOU KNOW, FRIENDS, AS I GO
THROUGH THESE STORIES I KEEP
00:55:55.76\00:55:58.13
THINKING ABOUT THAT
VERSE IN HEBREWS 32.
00:55:58.13\00:56:00.60
AS WE LOOK AT THE TYPES OF JESUS
THROUGH ALL THE BIBLE, I KEEP
00:56:00.60\00:56:03.30
WANTING TO SAY, "AND WHAT SHALL
I MORE SAY FOR TIME WOULD FAIL
00:56:03.30\00:56:07.83
ME TO TELL OF GIDEON AND
BARAK AND SAMSON AND JEPHTHAH
00:56:07.83\00:56:11.63
AND DAVID AND SAMUEL
AND ALL THE PROPHETS."
00:56:11.63\00:56:15.26
THESE ARE ALL TYPES
OF CHRIST IN THE BIBLE.
00:56:15.26\00:56:18.83
YOU KNOW YOU GET ALL
THESE DIFFERENT PICTURES OF WHAT
00:56:18.83\00:56:22.00
CHRIST IS LIKE
BECAUSE HE'S REFLECTED.
00:56:22.00\00:56:25.26
I CAN SEE WHAT YOU LOOK
LIKE DIRECTLY OR I CAN LOOK AT
00:56:25.26\00:56:27.83
A MIRROR AND SEE WHAT YOU LOOK
LIKE AND YOU ARE SEEING MIRRORS
00:56:27.83\00:56:30.73
OF JESUS ALL THROUGH THE BIBLE.
00:56:30.73\00:56:33.30
AND SO THAT'S WHY WE'RE SPENDING
TIME ON THIS THEME, SO WE MIGHT
00:56:33.30\00:56:36.30
KNOW MORE ABOUT HIM
BECAUSE IF YOU KNOW HIM BETTER,
00:56:36.30\00:56:38.96
YOU'LL LOVE HIM BETTER.
00:56:38.96\00:56:39.80
IF YOU LOVE HIM BETTER,
YOU'LL SERVE HIM BETTER.
00:56:39.80\00:56:41.33
AMEN?
