GET THEIR BIBLES OUT
AND MAYBE WANT TO MAKE
00:01:25.00\00:01:29.23
SOME NOTES AS WE GO
ALONG BECAUSE I KNOW YOU'VE GOT
00:01:29.23\00:01:31.50
A LOT OF INTERESTING
INFORMATION TO GIVE US.
00:01:31.50\00:01:32.46
SO THANK YOU. THE BOOK
OF HEBREWS, YOU GAVE US A
00:01:32.46\00:01:35.33
LITTLE OVERVIEW LAST
WEEK, BUT WHY DON'T WE GET INTO,
00:01:35.33\00:01:42.46
WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE
FOR THE BOOK OF HEBREWS? WHY
00:01:42.46\00:01:43.43
WAS IT WRITTEN? >>Dr.
00:01:43.43\00:01:49.90
Knight: WELL, IT WAS
WRITTEN BECAUSE THERE WERE
00:01:49.90\00:01:50.90
SOME PRETTY DISCOURAGED
CHRISTIANS OUT THERE.
00:01:50.90\00:01:54.23
AND LET'S FACE IT, THE
CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY WAS A
00:01:54.23\00:02:00.96
SMALL COMMUNITY AND SOME
OF THESE PEOPLE, PROBABLY
00:02:00.96\00:02:01.96
WRITTEN TO JEWISH
CHRISTIANS. THAT'S HOW
00:02:01.96\00:02:06.73
COME IT IS THE LETTER TO
THE HEBREWS. SO THESE ARE
00:02:06.73\00:02:12.53
PEOPLE WHO HAD SOME
FAMILIARITY WITH THE
00:02:12.53\00:02:13.40
JERUSALEM TEMPLE WHICH
IS TRULY ONE OF THE GREAT,
00:02:13.40\00:02:16.86
WAS ONE OF THE GREAT
SIGHTS OF THE WORLD. IF
00:02:16.86\00:02:21.33
YOU STAND OF THE MOUNT
OF OLIVES YOU LOOK DOWN ON
00:02:21.33\00:02:22.36
THE BROOK ? AND YOU
CAN STILL THE FOUNDATION OF
00:02:22.36\00:02:25.23
WHAT USED TO BE THE
TEMPLE AREA. AND JOSEEFA?, THE
00:02:25.23\00:02:32.20
FIRST TRUE HISTORIAN
TELLS US IT WAS COVERED IN WHITE
00:02:32.20\00:02:33.40
MARBLE AND OF COURSE
THEY HAD A LOT OF GOLD IN IT
00:02:33.40\00:02:36.40
AND IN THE SUNSET THIS
THING WAS JUST RADIANT.
00:02:36.40\00:02:42.26
>>Bill: SPECTACULAR.
00:02:42.26\00:02:42.86
>>Dr. Knight: BUT NOT
ONLY THAT, THE MAJESTY OF THE
00:02:42.86\00:02:45.00
SERVICES, IT WAS REALLY
ONE OF THE WONDERS OF THE
00:02:45.00\00:02:46.03
ANCIENT WORLD. AND,
OF COURSE, SOME OF OUR
00:02:46.03\00:02:50.06
VIEWERS MAY WONDER WHAT
HAPPENED TO IT. WELL, THE
00:02:50.06\00:02:52.66
JEWISH PEOPLE REBELLED
AGAINST CHRIST AND, EXCUSE
00:02:52.66\00:02:53.70
ME, REBELLED AGAINST
ROME AND, ROME IN AD. 70
00:02:53.70\00:03:00.60
DESTROYED IT. NOW
JESUS HAD PROPHESIED THE
00:03:00.60\00:03:07.33
DESTRUCTION OF THE TEMPLE.
00:03:07.33\00:03:07.90
HE SAID NOT ONE STONE
WOULD BE LEFT UPON ANOTHER
00:03:07.90\00:03:10.66
AND SO, YOU KNOW, YOU
DON'T SEE THAT MUCH THERE
00:03:10.66\00:03:11.66
TODAY. JUST THE BOTTOM
WALL OF THE FOUNDATION,
00:03:11.66\00:03:15.13
THAT'S IT. AND SO IT
WAS A MAGNIFICENT THING AND
00:03:15.13\00:03:20.80
THESE EARLY JEWISH
CHRISTIANS, IN MOST
00:03:20.80\00:03:21.66
COMMUNITIES THEY
DIDN'T EVEN HAVE A CHURCH
00:03:21.66\00:03:28.66
BUILDING. CHURCH
BUILDINGS DON'T COME AROUND, YOU
00:03:28.66\00:03:33.43
KNOW, HERE'S A LITTLE
LESSON IN HISTORY, MOST
00:03:33.43\00:03:34.43
OF US WE HEAR THE WORD
"CHURCH", WE THINK OF A
00:03:34.43\00:03:38.30
BUILDING DOWN THE
STREET IT MIGHT BE BAPTIST OR
00:03:38.30\00:03:42.50
ROMAN CATHOLIC OR
ADVENTIST OR PRESBYTERIAN
00:03:42.50\00:03:43.40
WE THINK OF A BUILDING.
00:03:43.40\00:03:47.76
THEY DID NOT THINK OF
A BUILDING, THEY THOUGHT
00:03:47.76\00:03:48.73
OF A GROUP OF PEOPLE.
IN FACT, THAT'S WHAT THE
00:03:48.73\00:03:52.56
GREEK WORD FOR A CHURCH
MEANS "ECCLESIA". WHERE WE
00:03:52.56\00:03:55.70
GET THE WORD
ECCLESIASTICAL. THAT MEANS
00:03:55.70\00:03:56.56
THOSE WHO ARE CALLED OUT.
00:03:56.56\00:04:03.13
AND WHETHER OUT OF
PAGANISM, OR OUT OF
00:04:03.13\00:04:04.10
JUDISIM, IT DIDN'T
MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE. THE
00:04:04.10\00:04:08.00
CHURCH IS THE COMMUNITY
OF THE SAINTS THAT HAS BEEN
00:04:08.00\00:04:10.73
CALLED OUT. BUT, IF
THEY DIDN'T HAVE A CHURCH,
00:04:10.73\00:04:11.70
WHERE DID THEY MEET?
THEY MET IN VARIOUS PEOPLES
00:04:11.70\00:04:17.03
HOMES. SO WE HAVE WHAT
WE CALL THE HOME CHURCH. AND
00:04:17.03\00:04:23.10
SO HERE THEY ARE,
YOU KNOW, IT'S DIFFICULT
00:04:23.10\00:04:24.03
ENOUGH IN GOOD TIMES.
00:04:24.03\00:04:27.96
YOU'VE GOT THIS BEAUTIFUL,
BEAUTIFUL TEMPLE AND WITH
00:04:27.96\00:04:29.03
ALL ITS PAGENTRY
AND THE PRIESTLY GUARD,
00:04:29.03\00:04:34.00
THE FORMALITY. >>Bill
ABSOLUTELY. >>Dr. Knight:
00:04:34.00\00:04:39.76
AND WHERE DO YOU GO
TO CHURCH? >>Bill: IN
00:04:39.76\00:04:40.60
SOMEBODY'S BASEMENT. >>Dr.
00:04:40.60\00:04:42.13
Knight: WE GO OVER
HERE BUT WE KIND OF HIDE
00:04:42.13\00:04:43.13
BECAUSE WE ARE IN TROUBLE.
00:04:43.13\00:04:45.26
YOU KNOW, THERE'S JUST
NOT MUCH THERE. AND THE
00:04:45.26\00:04:46.26
EARLIEST CHRISTIANS,
AT LEAST ACCORDING TO THE
00:04:46.26\00:04:50.96
BOOK OF ACTS, SOME OF
THEM WORSHIPPED IN THE TEMPLE
00:04:50.96\00:04:57.00
AND THEY WORSHIPPED
CHRIST. >>Bill: I SEE.
00:04:57.00\00:04:57.93
>> Dr. Knight: BUT AS
CHRISTIANITY WENT THROUGH
00:04:57.93\00:05:02.00
HISTORY, GRADUALLY IT
DISENGAGED FROM JUDISM
00:05:02.00\00:05:07.10
BECAUSE PEOPLE
REALIZED THAT THAT STUFF DOESN'T
00:05:07.10\00:05:08.13
MEAN WHAT IT USED TO MEAN.
00:05:08.13\00:05:12.66
>>Bill: RIGHT. >>Dr.
00:05:12.66\00:05:13.13
Knight: THAT HAPPENS
IN THE TEMPLE. MEANWHILE,
00:05:13.13\00:05:14.73
YOU'VE GOT THIS VERY
MAJESTIC, MAJESTIC VISUAL
00:05:14.73\00:05:15.70
SYMBOL OF RELIGION.
NOW, IT'S DIFFICULT ENOUGH IN
00:05:15.70\00:05:23.36
GOOD TIMES BUT WHEN THE
CHURCH BEGAN TO GO UNDER
00:05:23.36\00:05:29.26
PERSECUTION, AND WHEN
PEOPLE'S PROPERTIES WERE
00:05:29.26\00:05:30.23
TAKEN AWAY FROM
THEM BECAUSE THEY WERE
00:05:30.23\00:05:35.16
"CHRISTIANS", THEN
IT'S ONLY NATURAL THAT SOME
00:05:35.16\00:05:42.20
MIGHT BE TEMPTED TO
DOUBT BECAUSE THEY CAN'T SEE
00:05:42.20\00:05:43.20
WHAT'S HAPPENING.
WHERE'S JESUS? I MEAN, THAT'S
00:05:43.20\00:05:50.66
ALWAYS THE QUESTION.
WHERE IS JESUS? WHAT'S HE DOING?
00:05:50.66\00:05:56.86
AND SO, IT'S DIFFICULT
ENOUGH JUST BY COMPARISON
00:05:56.86\00:05:57.86
TO WHAT THEY HAD GIVEN
UP TO WHAT THEY NOW HAVE.
00:05:57.86\00:06:05.10
BUT NOW WHEN PERSECUTION
COMES, SOME PEOPLE ARE
00:06:05.10\00:06:11.43
SAYING MAYBE WHAT WE
HAD BEFORE WAS BETTER. MAYBE
00:06:11.43\00:06:12.40
WE BETTER GO BACK TO
THE TEMPLE. THAT'S THE, KIND
00:06:12.40\00:06:20.10
OF, THE BACKGROUND IN
WHICH WE FIND THE BOOK OF
00:06:20.10\00:06:26.36
HEBREWS. >>Bill: SO
THESE EARLY CHRISTIANS, THESE
00:06:26.36\00:06:27.40
EARLY JEWISH
CHRISTIANS, MAY HAVE BEEN GOING
00:06:27.40\00:06:32.80
THROUGH SOME, I GUESS
THEY CALL IT IN SALES AND
00:06:32.80\00:06:35.13
MARKETING, POST
PURCHASE DISSEDENCE, OR BUYER'S
00:06:35.13\00:06:36.10
REMORSE. >>Dr. Knight:
OH, DEFINITELY, AND SOME
00:06:36.10\00:06:38.93
WERE SAYING I'M NOT
SURE WE WANT TO BELIEVE THAT
00:06:38.93\00:06:42.40
ANYMORE. AND APPARENTLY,
ACCORDING TO CHAPTER 10,
00:06:42.40\00:06:43.36
VERSE 25, SOME OF THEM
WERE STOPPING GOING TO THE
00:06:43.36\00:06:47.60
FELLOWSHIP AND SOME
WERE ACTUALLY TURNING THEIR
00:06:47.60\00:06:52.33
BACK ON CHRIST. AND THIS
ALL COMES OUT IN THE BOOK
00:06:52.33\00:06:53.33
THAT THERE ARE SOME
VERY DISCOURAGED PEOPLE OUT
00:06:53.33\00:06:58.73
THERE. AND, YOU KNOW
BILL, WHAT ELSE IS NEW, HUH?
00:06:58.73\00:07:04.80
>>Bill: YEAH. >>Dr.
00:07:04.80\00:07:05.40
Knight: I MEAN YOU'VE
BEEN A PASTOR, I'VE BEEN A
00:07:05.40\00:07:07.13
PASTOR AND WE KNOW
THAT THE CHURCH AT EVERY AGE
00:07:07.13\00:07:08.16
FACES CHALLENGES. AND
IT'S ALL TOO EASY TO SAY YOU
00:07:08.16\00:07:14.56
KNOW THERE'S NOT REALLY
MUCH TO THIS. WE CAN'T SEE
00:07:14.56\00:07:20.40
IT. YOU TAKE A LOOK AT
THAT GREAT BIG CHURCH DOWN
00:07:20.40\00:07:21.43
THE STREET, LOOK AT
ALL THE MAJESTY AND THE
00:07:21.43\00:07:25.20
PAGENTRY, AND MY LITTLE
CHURCH IS JUST A GROUP OF
00:07:25.20\00:07:28.46
PEOPLE. AND MOST OF
THEM ARE POOR. THAT DOESN'T
00:07:28.46\00:07:29.43
HELP. >>Bill: YES. YES.
00:07:29.43\00:07:35.20
>>Dr. Knight: SO I
MEAN THIS IS A VERY RELIVANT
00:07:35.20\00:07:36.23
BOOK BECAUSE YOU SHOW ME
A CHURCH THAT DOESN'T HAVE
00:07:36.23\00:07:39.30
ANY DISCOURAGED PEOPLE
AND I'LL SHOW YOU A CHURCH
00:07:39.30\00:07:43.96
THAT'S IN HEAVEN, NOT
ON EARTH. >>Bill: I GUESS
00:07:43.96\00:07:44.93
CHRISTIANITY IN
GENERAL TODAY, I MEAN, IT'S
00:07:44.93\00:07:48.13
COMMONPLACE AT LEAST IN
CANADA AND I'M ASSUMING IN
00:07:48.13\00:07:53.16
THE UNITED STATES,
WHICH YOU SEE SOMETIMES HERE
00:07:53.16\00:07:54.13
IN THE MEDIA, YOU
KNOW TO RIDICULE CHRISTIANS
00:07:54.13\00:07:57.26
BECAUSE OF OUR BELIEF
AND I GUESS IT HAS CAUSED OR
00:07:57.26\00:08:02.03
IS CAUSING MANY,
SOME CHRISTIANS, TO BEGIN
00:08:02.03\00:08:03.06
TO SECOND GUESS THEIR
DECISION TO FOLLOW JESUS.
00:08:03.06\00:08:06.93
TO MAKE THAT COMMITMENT
TO HIM. >>Dr. Knight: IT
00:08:06.93\00:08:11.43
BRINGS ME BACK TO
MY OWN EARLY JOURNEY IN
00:08:11.43\00:08:12.33
CHRISTIANITY AND I
FOCUSED ON ONE WORD. IT'S ONE
00:08:12.33\00:08:14.96
FOUND IN ROMANS 1:16,
17 "FOR I AM NOT ASHAMED OF
00:08:14.96\00:08:20.26
THE GOSPEL. I AM NOT
ASHAMED." AND WHAT REALLY
00:08:20.26\00:08:21.23
HIT ME EARLY ON WAS WHAT
JESUS SAID OVER IN MATTHEW
00:08:21.23\00:08:26.43
10, "THOSE WERE ASHAMED
OF ME." YOU KNOW, AND WHAT IS
00:08:26.43\00:08:31.70
IT, DO WE REALLY HAVE
SOMETHING OR IS THIS SOME
00:08:31.70\00:08:32.70
KIND OF A FICTION?
>>Bill: SO YOU'VE GOT THIS, THIS
00:08:32.70\00:08:38.66
GROUP OF BELIEVERS,
THEY BEGIN TO QUESTION THIS
00:08:38.66\00:08:44.93
DECISION THAT THEY'VE
MADE OF FOLLOW JESUS. HE WAS
00:08:44.93\00:08:46.00
THE MESSIAH, HE DIED
ON THE CROSS, HE WAS THE
00:08:46.00\00:08:50.23
SAVIOUR, HE'S ASCENDED
TO HEAVEN. IN THE MEANTIME,
00:08:50.23\00:08:52.80
HE SAID HE WAS
COMING QUICKLY, NOTHING HAS
00:08:52.80\00:08:53.73
HAPPENED YET, AND
HERE WE ARE, WE'RE A LITTLE
00:08:53.73\00:08:58.53
RAG-TAG GROUP, WE DON'T
SEEM TO HAVE ANY KIND OF
00:08:58.53\00:09:01.10
REAL POWER OR INFLUENCE
IN OUR COMMUNITY THEY BEGIN
00:09:01.10\00:09:02.13
TO SECOND GUESS THIS.
AND HOW DOES, HOW DOES THE
00:09:02.13\00:09:07.30
BOOK OF HEBREWS GO
ABOUT ADDRESSING THIS? BECAUSE
00:09:07.30\00:09:10.90
THERE'S AN
INTERESTING KIND OF STRUCTURE TO
00:09:10.90\00:09:11.83
IT >>Dr. Knight: VERY
DEFINITE STRUC BEGINS, IF T
00:09:11.83\00:09:13.13
TO OPEN UP YOUR BIBLE
TO CHAPTER 1 AND VERSE 1, "
00:09:13.13\00:09:14.10
IN MANY AND OKEN TO US BY
A, WHOM HE APPOINTED TO BE
00:09:14.10\00:09:15.23
HEIR OF ALL THINGS." IT
THAT HE IS THE HEIR OF ALL
00:09:15.23\00:09:16.56
THINGS THROUGH WHOM
ALSO," IT SAYS IN VERSE 2, "HE
00:09:16.56\00:09:35.73
CHAPTER 1 AND VERSE 1,
" IN MANY AND VARIOUS WAYS
00:09:35.73\00:09:36.70
GOD SPOKE OF OLD TORA
FATHERS BY THE PROPHET
00:09:36.70\00:09:38.06
BUT IN THESE LAST DAYS HE
HAS SPOKEN TO US BY A SON,
00:09:38.06\00:09:40.56
WHOM HE APPOINTED TO
BE HEIR OF ALL THINGS." IT
00:09:40.56\00:09:41.60
TELLS A LOT RIGHT HERE.
00:09:41.60\00:09:46.13
THAT JESUS IS GOD AND TO
SAY IT RIGHT DOWN IN VERSE
00:09:46.13\00:09:47.16
8, "THAT JESUS IS GOD AND
THAT HE IS THE HEIR OF ALL
00:09:47.16\00:09:52.00
THINGS THROUGH WHOM
ALSO," IT SAYS IN VERSE 2, "HE
00:09:52.00\00:09:59.13
CREATED THE WORLD, HE
REFLECTS THE GLORY OF GOD
00:09:59.13\00:10:00.13
AND ? THE VERY STAMP OF
HIS NATURE. UPHOLDING THE
00:10:00.13\00:10:05.10
UNIVERSE BY HIS WORD
OF POWER." WOW. THIS TALKS
00:10:05.10\00:10:11.66
ABOUT A JESUS THAT HAS
GALACTIC POWER. IT'S NOT
00:10:11.66\00:10:12.63
THAT LOWLY CARPENTER,
YOU KNOW. IT SAYS HERE
00:10:12.63\00:10:19.06
IN VERSE 4 THAT, "
WHEN JESUS DIED WHEN HE MADE
00:10:19.06\00:10:22.16
PURIFICATION FOR SINS, HE
SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND
00:10:22.16\00:10:23.23
OF THE MAJESTY ON HIGH."
00:10:23.23\00:10:30.46
NOW, SO THE BOOK BEGINS
BY ONE OF THE REALLY GREAT
00:10:30.46\00:10:31.63
PICTURES OF JESUS. IF
YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT
00:10:31.63\00:10:38.20
WHO GOD IS, JESUS IS
THE EXPRESSED IMAGE OF THE
00:10:38.20\00:10:42.40
FATHER. >>Bill: HE MAY
HAVE LOOKED LIKE A VICTIM
00:10:42.40\00:10:43.40
HANGING ON THE CROSS BUT
THIS IS THE CREATOR OF THE
00:10:43.40\00:10:46.73
UNIVERSE. >>Dr. Knight:
YES AND THERE'S A REASON
00:10:46.73\00:10:51.13
FOR THE CROSS AND HEBREWS
IS GOING TO DEAL WITH THAT
00:10:51.13\00:10:52.20
LATER ON. I MEAN,
JESUS JUST DIDN'T DIE AS SOME
00:10:52.20\00:10:55.86
KIND OF AN EXERCISE
SO PEOPLE COULD WEAR A
00:10:55.86\00:10:58.90
CRUCIFIX AROUND
THEIR NECK. THE CROSS IS
00:10:58.90\00:10:59.76
ABSOLUTELY CENTRAL TO
THE NEW TESTAMENT AND IT IS
00:10:59.76\00:11:05.33
CERTAINLY CENTRAL TO
THE BOOK OF HEBREWS. BUT YOU
00:11:05.33\00:11:11.73
KNOW SOMETHING, I DON'T
THINK THE BOOK OF HEBREWS
00:11:11.73\00:11:12.76
HAS THE WORD "CROSS" IN
IT ONE TIME. BUT IT HAS THE
00:11:12.76\00:11:16.33
EXPERIENCE OF JESUS ON
THE CROSS. >>Bill: NOW WHY WAS
00:11:16.33\00:11:21.03
IT IMPORTANT TO SAY
THAT HE IS GREATER THAN THE
00:11:21.03\00:11:22.00
ANGELS? WOULDN'T FOLKS
HAVE ASSUMED THAT? HE WAS
00:11:22.00\00:11:26.43
JESUS. >>Dr. Knight:
WELL, IN THE JUDISM IN THE 2
00:11:26.43\00:11:33.50
CENTURIES BEFORE
CHRIST, THERE BECAME QUITE A
00:11:33.50\00:11:34.56
THEORY OF ANGELOLOGY.
THAT IS, THAT THERE IS
00:11:34.56\00:11:41.06
HIERARCHIES OF ANGELS AND
THEY GOT INVOLVED IN A LOT
00:11:41.06\00:11:46.16
OF THESE THINGS.
00:11:46.16\00:11:46.53
AND PEOPLE WERE DEEPLY
CONCERNED ABOUT THIS AND
00:11:46.53\00:11:50.10
SO IN THIS APPROACH
THE FIRST THING THAT THE
00:11:50.10\00:11:51.03
AUTHOR OF HEBREWS
DOES, IS TO SAY THAT JESUS IS
00:11:51.03\00:11:58.26
GREATER THAN THE
ANGELS AND IN SAYING THAT HE
00:11:58.26\00:12:03.53
DEMONSTRATES OVER AND
OVER WITH OLD TESTAMENT
00:12:03.53\00:12:04.53
QUOTATIONS, THIS IS
CHAPTER 1, THAT JESUS
00:12:04.53\00:12:09.60
IS FULLY GOD. NOW THAT
BECOMES IMPORTANT BECAUSE
00:12:09.60\00:12:16.73
IF JESUS IS OUR SAVIOUR
HE CAN'T JUST BE ANOTHER
00:12:16.73\00:12:17.73
PERSON. >>Bill: RIGHT.
00:12:17.73\00:12:20.46
>>Dr. Knight: AND SO THE
FIRST THING THAT NEEDS TO
00:12:20.46\00:12:21.56
BE DONE IS TO
DEMONSTRATE THAT JESUS IS GOD.
00:12:21.56\00:12:26.50
THEREFORE, HE IS BETTER
THAN THE ANGELS, IN FACT,
00:12:26.50\00:12:31.10
BETTER THAN IS THE
THEME, A THEME IN THE BOOK OF
00:12:31.10\00:12:32.10
HEBREWS AS WE'LL SEE
LATER ON IN OUR DISCUSSION. SO
00:12:32.10\00:12:40.20
THE FIRST CHAPTER, TALKS
ABOUT HOW JESUS, AFTER THE
00:12:40.20\00:12:44.46
INTRODUCTION, HOW JESUS
IS BETTER THAN THE ANGELS,
00:12:44.46\00:12:45.53
THAT HE IS GOD. AND
THEN THE SECOND CHAPTER GOES
00:12:45.53\00:12:51.50
ON TO ANOTHER ASPECT OF
HOW HE'S BETTER THAN THE
00:12:51.50\00:12:57.16
ANGELS, AND THAT IS HE
CAN IDENTIFY WITH US. HE'S
00:12:57.16\00:12:58.20
INCARN.., HE BECAME ONE
OF US AND IT SAYS SEVERAL
00:12:58.20\00:13:03.86
PLACES HERE THAT HE BECAME
A HUMAN BEING, HE BECAME A
00:13:03.86\00:13:12.66
LITTLE LOWER THAN THE
ANGELS, VERSE 9, "BUT WE
00:13:12.66\00:13:13.63
SEE JESUS WAS FOR A
LITTLE WHILE WAS MADE LOWER THAN
00:13:13.63\00:13:20.03
THE ANGELS", THAT'S THE
THIRTY YEARS HE LIVED ON
00:13:20.03\00:13:24.83
EARTH, "BUT NOW HE'S
CROWNED WITH GLORY AND
00:13:24.83\00:13:25.76
HONOUR BECAUSE OF HIS
SUFFERING AND DEATH SO
00:13:25.76\00:13:30.16
THAT BY THE GRACE OF
GOD HE MIGHT TASTE DEATH FOR
00:13:30.16\00:13:34.23
EVERYONE." SO HERE WE
HAVE THE GOSPEL BEING SOUNDED
00:13:34.23\00:13:35.26
LOUD AND CLEAR. JESUS
IS BETTER THAN THE ANGELS,
00:13:35.26\00:13:40.90
HE'S GOD, THEREFORE HE
HAS THIS AUTHORITY BUT BECAUSE
00:13:40.90\00:13:45.40
HE'S ALSO A HUMAN
BEING, WE COME HERE TO THE END
00:13:45.40\00:13:46.53
OF CHAPTER 2 VERSE 17,
"THEREFORE HE HAD TO BE
00:13:46.53\00:13:52.90
MADE LIKE HIS BRETHREN
IN EVERY RESPECT SO THAT HE
00:13:52.90\00:14:00.46
MIGHT BECOME A MERCIFUL
AND FAITHFUL HIGH PRIEST
00:14:00.46\00:14:01.46
IN THE SERVICE OF GOD
TO MAKE EXPIATION FOR THE
00:14:01.46\00:14:08.33
SINS OF THE PEOPLE.
FOR BECAUSE HE HIMSELF HAS
00:14:08.33\00:14:10.73
SUFFERED AND BEEN TEMPTED
AND IS ABLE TO HELP THOSE
00:14:10.73\00:14:11.76
WHO WERE TEMPTED. HEY.
00:14:11.76\00:14:14.73
THIS IS THE GOOD NEWS.
00:14:14.73\00:14:15.23
JESUS IS NOT JUST OUT
THERE, CHAPTER ONE. HE'S
00:14:15.23\00:14:21.90
JUST NOT BETTER THAN
CELESTIAL BEINGS. NO, HE'S
00:14:21.90\00:14:22.90
GOD AND HE BECAME ONE
OF US. THEREFORE BILL, HE
00:14:22.90\00:14:28.96
CAN UNDERSTAND YOU IN
YOUR MOMENTS WHEN YOU'RE DOWN.
00:14:28.96\00:14:34.10
NOW JESUS, YOU KNOW, THE
GOSPELS TELL US THAT JESUS
00:14:34.10\00:14:35.13
WASN'T ALWAYS UP. THAT
HE ALSO HAD TO GO AND PRAY,
00:14:35.13\00:14:39.76
SOMETIMES ALL NIGHT.
JESUS WAS ONE OF US, HE WAS
00:14:39.76\00:14:47.03
TEMPTED. THE DEVIL,
YOU KNOW, HE SAID COME ON
00:14:47.03\00:14:48.03
MY WAY, THIS FEELS GOOD,
YOU'LL ENJOY THIS. AND HE
00:14:48.03\00:14:53.40
HAD TO SAY NO JUST LIKE
YOU AND I. HE UNDERSTANDS
00:14:53.40\00:14:57.13
YOU, HE UNDERSTANDS
ME WHEN WE'RE IN TROUBLE
00:14:57.13\00:14:58.06
NOW, JESUS IS BETTER
THAN THE ANGELS BECAUSE HE'S
00:14:58.06\00:15:04.63
GOD AND IS ALSO HUMAN.
00:15:04.63\00:15:05.10
>>Bill: WAS THAT
FOREIGN THINKING TO THE MINDSET
00:15:05.10\00:15:10.50
THAT GOD WOULD BECOME
MAN THAT HE WOULD HAVE THIS
00:15:10.50\00:15:15.30
KIND OF CONNECTION?
00:15:15.30\00:15:15.76
>>Dr. Knight: OH, YEAH.
00:15:15.76\00:15:16.26
ACTUALLY, JEWISH
BELIEF HAD IT THAT HE WOULD
00:15:16.26\00:15:22.10
BECOME A CONQUERING SON
OF DAVID. THE MESSIAH WAS NOT
00:15:22.10\00:15:27.00
THOUGHT OF, NECESSARILY
A, A DIVINE BEING. AND THE
00:15:27.00\00:15:28.06
FACT THAT HE CAME, AND
NOT JUST CAME AS A CONQUERER,
00:15:28.06\00:15:36.66
BUT CAME TO LIVE THE
KIND OF LIFE THAT WE HAVE TO
00:15:36.66\00:15:43.30
LIVE. HE WAS A CARPENTER.
00:15:43.30\00:15:43.83
HE DIDN'T COME AS A KING.
00:15:43.83\00:15:44.33
AND SOME PEOPLE
THOUGHT, WELL HE CAN'T BE THE
00:15:44.33\00:15:49.20
MESSIAH. I MEAN, YOU
KNOW, IF YOU COME OUT A PLACE
00:15:49.20\00:15:53.33
LIKE, YOU KNOW, SOME,
YOU KNOW, NORTHERN ONTARIO. I
00:15:53.33\00:15:54.36
MEAN, CAN ANY GOOD
THING COME OUT OF THERE?
00:15:54.36\00:16:01.96
AND SUDDENLY THE SAVIOUR
COMES OUT OF NOWHERE, WHY?
00:16:01.96\00:16:04.86
BECAUSE HE IS LIKE
US. THEREFORE, HE CAN
00:16:04.86\00:16:05.76
UNDERSTAND US. >>Bill: OK.
00:16:05.76\00:16:09.83
SO GREATER THAN THE
ANGELS, THEN HE'S ONE OF
00:16:09.83\00:16:10.76
US, WHAT IS THE
TRANSITION TO FROM.>>Dr. Knight:
00:16:10.76\00:16:16.03
WELL, NEVER FORGET,
WHEN YOU'RE READING THE BIBLE
00:16:16.03\00:16:19.93
YOU MUST ALWAYS REMEMBER
WHO THE AUTHOR IS TALKING
00:16:19.93\00:16:20.93
TO. AND IF HE'S TALKING
TO A BUNCH OF JEWISH PEOPLE
00:16:20.93\00:16:27.36
THE GREATEST PERSON IN
THEIR HISTORY WAS MOSES.
00:16:27.36\00:16:33.53
GOD GAVE THE LAW TO
MOSES AND MOSES WAS TO LEAD THE
00:16:33.53\00:16:34.66
PEOPLE INTO THE
PROMISED LAND. AND WHERE MOSES,
00:16:34.66\00:16:39.43
AFTER HE DIED, JOSHUA
TOOK OVER. SO IN THE NEXT
00:16:39.43\00:16:50.20
SECTION, CHAPTERS THREE
AND FOUR, THE MAJOR THEME
00:16:50.20\00:16:51.23
IS THAT JESUS IS GREATER
THAN MOSES. NOW THAT IS NO
00:16:51.23\00:16:57.60
SIMPLE STATEMENT. >>Bill
MAYBE YOU'VE GONE TOO FAR.
00:16:57.60\00:17:06.23
GREATER THAN THE ANGELS,
MAYBE ..>>Dr. Knight: HE'S
00:17:06.23\00:17:07.26
GREATER THAN THE GUY THAT
GAVE THE LAW. >>Bill: WOW.
00:17:07.26\00:17:09.53
>>Dr. Knight: YEAH AND
WHAT IS THE ARGUMENT HERE?
00:17:09.53\00:17:13.30
WELL, GOD HAD PROMISED
THEM REST. NOW, REST WAS
00:17:13.30\00:17:14.26
ALMOST A HEAVENLY
REST HERE, IT'S GOING
00:17:14.26\00:17:22.23
INTO CAANAN. THE LAND
THAT FLOWS WITH MILK AND HONEY.
00:17:22.23\00:17:28.83
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE
EVER CROSSED THE CYANIDE
00:17:28.83\00:17:29.80
DESERT. I TOOK A BUS
TRIP ACROSS IT A COUPLE OF
00:17:29.80\00:17:32.53
YEARS AGO AND I SAID
TO MYSELF, NO WONDER THESE
00:17:32.53\00:17:34.00
GUYS WERE COMPLAINING.
00:17:34.00\00:17:34.50
IT MAKES THE MOJAVE LOOK
LIKE A PRETTY GOOD PLACE.
00:17:34.50\00:17:41.83
>>Bill: WOW. >>Dr. Knight:
YOU KNOW, THEY WANTED THE
00:17:41.83\00:17:42.90
LEEKS AND THE ONIONS
AND ALL THOSE GOOD THINGS
00:17:42.90\00:17:45.56
BACK THERE AND ALL THAT
GOOD STUFF. THE CUCUMBERS.
00:17:45.56\00:17:47.86
ANYWAY, MOSES WAS TO
LEAD THE PEOPLE INTO THE
00:17:47.86\00:17:48.80
PROMISED LAND, BUT
MOSES DIDN'T EVEN MAKE IT
00:17:48.80\00:17:56.16
HIMSELF AS YOU RECALL.
AND SO JOSHUA WAS ASSIGNED THE
00:17:56.16\00:18:00.43
TASK TO LEAD THE PEOPLE
INTO THEIR REST. WELL, THE
00:18:00.43\00:18:01.50
BOOK OF HEBREWS TELLS
US THAT EVENTHOUGH JOSHUA
00:18:01.50\00:18:06.96
FINALLY GOT THEM INTO
THE PROMISED LAND, IT WASN'T
00:18:06.96\00:18:13.43
REALLY THE REST GOD HAD
IN MIND. GOD HAS IN MIND
00:18:13.43\00:18:14.53
A HEAVENLY REST AND
THAT IT'S JESUS WHO CAN LEAD
00:18:14.53\00:18:22.16
US INTO THE HEAVENLY REST
AND THERE'S AN INTERESTING
00:18:22.16\00:18:27.80
ILLUSION HERE TO THE
SEVENTH DAY SABBATH IS AN
00:18:27.80\00:18:28.76
ILLUSTRATION OF HEAVEN.
00:18:28.76\00:18:34.83
VERSE 8 OF CHAPTER
FOUR, "FOR IF JOSHUA HAD GIVEN
00:18:34.83\00:18:35.80
THEM REST, GOD WOULD
NOT LATER SPEAK OF ANOTHER
00:18:35.80\00:18:41.26
DAY." IN OTHER WORDS,
THERE'S A REST THAT'S MORE
00:18:41.26\00:18:45.86
FULL OF COME, NOT JUST
DID THEY GET TO THE PROMISED
00:18:45.86\00:18:46.90
LAND BUT DID THEY GET
TO THE HEAVENLY REST. VERSE
00:18:46.90\00:18:53.16
9, "SO THEN THERE
REMAINS A SABBATH REST FOR THE
00:18:53.16\00:18:59.53
PEOPLE OF GOD." AND
THE GREEK WORD THERE IS
00:18:59.53\00:19:00.56
"SABBATISMOS" WHICH IS
NOT USED ELSEWHERE FOR REST IN
00:19:00.56\00:19:05.50
THIS BOOK. THE SABBATH,
AS GOD SET IT FORTH, WITH ALL
00:19:05.50\00:19:12.80
OF ITS BEAUTY, IS
AN ILLUSTRATION OF WHAT
00:19:12.80\00:19:13.70
HEAVEN IS ALL ABOUT.
AND THAT'S ONE OF THE
00:19:13.70\00:19:18.03
FASCINATING THINGS
ABOUT THIS PASSAGE. THAT GOD
00:19:18.03\00:19:21.83
WANTS TO LEAD US INTO
HIS KINGDOM, AND BY THE WAY,
00:19:21.83\00:19:22.83
YOU DON'T GET THERE BY
STRUGGLING, JESUS LEADS US
00:19:22.83\00:19:28.96
INTO THE REST OF SALVATION
"MY YOKE IS EASY AND MY
00:19:28.96\00:19:34.63
BURDEN IS LIGHT". AND
THE WHOLE SABBATH REST IS A
00:19:34.63\00:19:35.66
CELEBRATION OF SALVATION
IN JESUS. WE REST IN HIM,
00:19:35.66\00:19:42.30
SAVED BY GRACE, AND IF
WE KEPT SABBATH CORRECTLY IT
00:19:42.30\00:19:50.63
WOULD BE AN ILLUSTRATION
OF WHAT HEAVEN IS ALL
00:19:50.63\00:19:51.60
ABOUT. ANYWAY, THE
MAJOR THEME OF THOSE TWO
00:19:51.60\00:19:57.30
CHAPTERS, CHAPTERS THREE
AND FOUR, IS THAT JESUS IS
00:19:57.30\00:20:02.10
BETTER THAN MOSES AND
JOSHUA. NOW, FOR ME SAYING
00:20:02.10\00:20:03.13
THAT TO YOU AS ANOTHER
CHRISTIAN, SO WHAT? BIG
00:20:03.13\00:20:11.96
DEAL. NO, NO. TO THESE
PEOPLE THIS IS CRUCIAL.
00:20:11.96\00:20:20.50
>>Bill: YES. >>Dr.
Knight: WE HAVE SOMETHING HERE
00:20:20.50\00:20:21.53
THAT'S BETTER THAN
JESUS, THAN MOSES. EXCUSE ME.
00:20:21.53\00:20:24.60
>>Bill: YES. INCREDIBLE.
00:20:24.60\00:20:25.06
THEN IT BEGINS TO MAKE
REFERENCES TO THE, JESUS
00:20:25.06\00:20:29.43
AS THE HIGH PRIEST. DOES
THAT COME UP NEXT NOW? IS
00:20:29.43\00:20:33.36
THAT.>>Dr. Knight: WELL,
THAT'S THE NEXT ONE. JESUS
00:20:33.36\00:20:34.40
IS BETTER THAN AARON.
00:20:34.40\00:20:39.23
WELL, NOW, WE ARE GOING
TO HAVE SOME EXPLANATION.
00:20:39.23\00:20:40.26
WHO IN THE WORLD IS AARON?
00:20:40.26\00:20:44.33
AARON IS MOSES'
BROTHER AND HE WAS THE HIGH
00:20:44.33\00:20:45.30
PRIEST. THIS IS, HE
WAS IN CHARGE OF THE JEWISH
00:20:45.30\00:20:50.16
SACRIFICIAL AND RELIGIOUS
SYSTEM. MOSES, YOU MIGHT
00:20:50.16\00:20:55.70
SAY, WAS THE
POLITICAL LEADER. AARON WAS THE
00:20:55.70\00:20:56.76
RELIGIOUS LEADER OF
THE JEWISH PEOPLE. HE WAS
00:20:56.76\00:21:01.93
GOD'S HIGH PRIEST.
HE'S THE ONE THAT TOOK THE
00:21:01.93\00:21:09.16
LAMB, SACRIFICED IT, SO
THAT PEOPLE'S SINS COULD
00:21:09.16\00:21:10.16
BE FORGIVEN. DAY AFTER
DAY THESE SACRIFICES WENT ON
00:21:10.16\00:21:17.40
BUT JESUS IS EVEN BETTER
THAN AARON. BUT THE AUTHOR
00:21:17.40\00:21:26.06
HAS A LITTLE PROBLEM
HERE. >>Bill: ISN'T THERE
00:21:26.06\00:21:27.03
A GENEALOGICAL. >>Dr.
00:21:27.03\00:21:30.93
Knight: OH, THERE'S A
BIG PROBLEM. >>Bill: BARRIER,
00:21:30.93\00:21:32.06
HERE? >>Dr. Knight:
THERE'S A BIG PROBLEM
00:21:32.06\00:21:34.23
AND THAT IS THAT JESUS
BELONGED TO THE TRIBE OF
00:21:34.23\00:21:38.80
JUDA. ALL PRIESTS WERE
TO COME OUT OF THE TRIBE
00:21:38.80\00:21:39.93
OF LEVI. AND
THAT'S WHERE THIS ARGUMENT
00:21:39.93\00:21:46.16
OF ALLKEESDECK COMES
IN JESUS IS A PRIEST AFTER
00:21:46.16\00:21:49.66
THE ORDER OF MALKESADEC.
00:21:49.66\00:21:50.16
WAIT A MINUTE, WHO IS
MALKESDEC? WELL, WE DON'T
00:21:50.16\00:21:55.43
REALLY KNOW, BUT HE'S NOT
A LEVITE AND YET, ABRAHAM,
00:21:55.43\00:21:56.50
THE FATHER OF ALL THE
LEVITES, INCLUDING AARON,
00:21:56.50\00:22:00.36
PAID TITHE TO
MALKESEDEC THEREFORE. >>Bill:
00:22:00.36\00:22:06.36
ACKNOWLEDGING. HE
ACKNOWLEDGED THAT HE.
00:22:06.36\00:22:07.23
>>Dr. Knight: THAT'S
RIGHT. THEREFORE, THERE
00:22:07.23\00:22:10.23
ARE PRIESTS OUTSIDE OF
THE ORDER OF AARON AND THAT
00:22:10.23\00:22:13.83
AREN'T SUPERIOR TO HIM.
00:22:13.83\00:22:14.46
IT'S AN ARGUMENT THAT'S
MAYBE NOT THAT IMPORTANT
00:22:14.46\00:22:21.46
IN THE 21ST CENTURY TO
MOST OF US. BUT TO THESE
00:22:21.46\00:22:22.43
PEOPLE IT WAS ABSOLUTELY
CRUCIAL. YOU KNOW, AS YOU
00:22:22.43\00:22:25.63
GO BACK TO THE FIRST
WORDS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT, WHAT
00:22:25.63\00:22:30.36
ARE THEY? GENEOLOGY.
00:22:30.36\00:22:30.83
>>Bill: YES. ABSOLUTELY.
00:22:30.83\00:22:31.30
>>Dr. Knight: JESUS,
THE SON. >>Bill: YES, YES.
00:22:31.30\00:22:35.50
ABSOLUTELY. >>Dr.
Knight: WOULD YOU START A BOOK
00:22:35.50\00:22:37.36
THAT WAY? >>Bill: NO.
00:22:37.36\00:22:37.86
>>Dr. Knight: NOW, IF
WERE TO START A BOOK THAT WAY
00:22:37.86\00:22:39.66
IN THE 21ST CENTURY,
YOU KNOW HOW MANY READERS
00:22:39.66\00:22:40.63
I WOULD GET? >>Bill: YOU
WOULDN'T GET THEM PAST THE
00:22:40.63\00:22:42.36
FIRST PAGE. >>Dr. Knight:
THAT'S RIGHT. I WOULD GET
00:22:42.36\00:22:44.50
ZERO READERS AND I
WOULD NOT MAKE THE NEW YORK
00:22:44.50\00:22:45.46
TIMES BEST SELLERS LIST.
00:22:45.46\00:22:48.06
IN FACT, I MIGHT MAKE
THE OTHER EXTREME, WORST
00:22:48.06\00:22:49.03
SELLER LIST. SO, HE
IS BETTER THAN AARON BUT
00:22:49.03\00:22:54.03
REALLY THAT'S JUST LEADING
INTO THE NEXT SECTION AND
00:22:54.03\00:22:59.33
THAT IS THAT JESUS HAS
A BETTER PRIESTHOOD. NOW,
00:22:59.33\00:23:00.40
WE'RE GETTING INTO THE
REAL ISSUES. THAT WE HAVE
00:23:00.40\00:23:09.06
A HIGH PRIEST IN
HEAVEN THAT UNDERSTANDS US
00:23:09.06\00:23:19.06
BECAUSE HE BECAME ONE
OF US AND I'M GONNA READ
00:23:19.06\00:23:20.03
ONE OR TWO PASSAGES HERE.
00:23:20.03\00:23:26.43
>>Bill: ABSOLUTELY. >>Dr.
00:23:26.43\00:23:26.96
Knight: OUT OF CHAPTER
SEVEN. >>Bill: YEAH, WE'VE
00:23:26.96\00:23:28.63
GOT ABOUT 2 ½ MINUTES
LEFT. >>Dr. Knight: THAT'S
00:23:28.63\00:23:29.76
ALL WE'VE GOT LEFT. I'M
ONLY PART WAY THROUGH THE
00:23:29.76\00:23:32.03
BOOK. LET'S GO TO VERSE
23 OF CHAPTER 7, "THE FORMER
00:23:32.03\00:23:39.26
PRIESTS WERE MANY IN
NUMBER BECAUSE THEY WERE
00:23:39.26\00:23:40.30
PREVENTED BY DEATH
BY CONTINUING IN OFFICE
00:23:40.30\00:23:45.06
BUT JESUS, HE HOLDS HIS
PRIESTHOOD PERMANENTLY."
00:23:45.06\00:23:50.56
HE'S GOD, HE DOESN'T DIE.
00:23:50.56\00:23:51.10
"BECAUSE HE CONTINUES
FOREVER, CONSEQUENTLY, HE
00:23:51.10\00:23:55.50
IS ABLE FOR ALL TIME TO
SAVE THOSE WHO DRAW NEARER
00:23:55.50\00:23:56.56
TO GOD THROUGH HIM
SINCE HE ALWAYS LIVES TO MAKE
00:23:56.56\00:24:02.20
INTERCESSION FOR THEM"
>>Bill: WOW. >>Dr. Knight:
00:24:02.20\00:24:07.33
YOU KNOW, WE MAY WANT TO
COME BACK TO SOME OF THESE
00:24:07.33\00:24:08.36
WORDS. WHAT DOES
IT MEAN FOR JESUS TO
00:24:08.36\00:24:10.50
MAKE INTERCESSION FOR US
WHAT'S GOING ON UP THERE?
00:24:10.50\00:24:13.96
BUT JESUS HAS A
PRIESTHOOD THAT'S PERMANENT
00:24:13.96\00:24:14.86
EVERYDAY, BILL. WHEN
YOU AND I GET UP IN THE
00:24:14.86\00:24:21.03
MORNING, WHAT DO WE
DO >>Bill: WE PRAY. >>Dr.
00:24:21.03\00:24:23.93
Knight: WE PRAY TO
GOD, IN THE NAME OF CHRIST
00:24:23.93\00:24:25.03
>>Bill: YES. >>Dr.
Knight: AND WE SAY, GOD, THANK
00:24:25.03\00:24:27.50
YOU FOR LIFE, THANK YOU
LORD THAT YOU'VE GIVEN ME
00:24:27.50\00:24:33.96

HELP TODAY. THAT'S
INTERCESSION. I NEED YOUR
00:24:34.86\00:24:39.03
FORGIVENESS. AND CHRIST
IS THERE, IN HEAVEN, FOREVER.
00:24:39.03\00:24:44.70
YOU PEOPLE, YOU WORRIED
ABOUT THE EARTHLY TEMPLE
00:24:44.70\00:24:45.70
LOOK IT, WE HAVE GOT
SOMETHING BETTER. >>Bill:
00:24:45.70\00:24:51.20
BETTER THAN THAT. >>Dr.
00:24:51.20\00:24:51.70
Knight: WE'VE GOT BETTER
PRIESTHOOD AND THAT'S JUST
00:24:51.70\00:24:54.36
THE BEGINNING OF
WHERE HE'S GOING. AND THAT'S
00:24:54.36\00:24:58.33
THIS GREAT SECTION.
00:24:58.33\00:24:58.80
>>Bill: YOU KNOW, THIS
IDEA OF JESUS PLEADING HIS
00:24:58.80\00:25:04.46
BLOOD ON BEHALF OF SINNERS
LIKE YOU AND I, DAILY, IS

WONDERFUL CONCEPT. YOU

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO
COME BACK AGAIN NEXT WEEK TO
