But lot as I see it 00:11:52.17\00:11:56.68 never will never change 00:11:56.68\00:11:59.61 to my 9 Min. A vote is a lost cause law last year. Remember 00:11:59.61\00:12:04.75 the last crusade in Minot? 00:12:04.75\00:12:07.79 It did not view one baptism. 00:12:07.79\00:12:11.09 What's the use going back there? Again? The Bible tells 00:12:11.09\00:12:14.83 us that on his own 00:12:14.83\00:12:17.63 Jonah decided that since God was not changing his mind, 00:12:17.63\00:12:22.64 that he would take a position of opposition to this 00:12:22.64\00:12:26.88 impossible assignment from the law. 00:12:26.88\00:12:30.51 And that very day, 00:12:30.51\00:12:32.28 Jonah boarded the first ship you could find that was sailing 00:12:32.28\00:12:37.45 for a poor as fall away from men of he could go 00:12:37.45\00:12:43.29 the ship, the board. It was bound for toss us 00:12:43.29\00:12:46.93 now toss. This was a city 00:12:46.93\00:12:49.43 on the other side of Spain about 2000 miles away from it. 00:12:49.43\00:12:56.54 And Jonah was saying by his actions, 00:12:56.54\00:12:59.24 I don't care what God says. I'm going to run and rebellion 00:12:59.24\00:13:06.11 as far away from this assignment as I can 00:13:06.11\00:13:10.65 and the Bible says. And you can see there in the scripture, 00:13:10.65\00:13:12.85 Jonah, one verse 3, Jonah rolls up to 3 and a toss-up from the 00:13:12.85\00:13:18.29 presence of the Lord and went down to joppa and he found a 00:13:18.29\00:13:22.66 ship going to toss us. So he paid the fan there off and went 00:13:22.66\00:13:27.70 down into it to go with them on to touch us from the presence 00:13:27.70\00:13:33.04 of the low. 00:13:33.04\00:13:34.58 Now, notice twice in that scripture. The Bible says 00:13:34.58\00:13:38.58 that Jonah was running from the presence of the law. And here 00:13:38.58\00:13:45.49 the Bible is making it clear to us the absurdity of Jonah's 00:13:45.49\00:13:50.03 logic, the senselessness of Jonas Choice. The Bible tells 00:13:50.03\00:13:54.73 us Jonah was trying to to run from the presence of the law 00:13:54.73\00:14:00.74 and you can't run 00:14:00.74\00:14:03.37 from the presence of God 00:14:03.37\00:14:06.64 ever you run. 00:14:06.64\00:14:08.41 I can find you 00:14:08.41\00:14:11.01 look at what the Bible says. And second chronicles for the 00:14:11.01\00:14:13.82 eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole year. 00:14:13.82\00:14:20.16 Even the old slaves down South in America, they have moral 00:14:20.16\00:14:26.19 theology but accident. Then some theologians in seminaries 00:14:26.19\00:14:31.43 have on purpose. 00:14:31.43\00:14:35.94 Those all slaves used to say there are no hiding place down 00:14:35.94\00:14:41.34 here 00:14:41.34\00:14:45.85 and no hiding place down here. 00:14:45.85\00:14:49.65 I ran to the rocks. The had my face. The rocks cried out. 00:14:49.65\00:14:53.32 Hey, no hiding place. 00:14:53.32\00:14:56.49 And then someone. 39 7. David reminds us you can hide in 00:15:00.73\00:15:05.07 heaven and neither can you hide. And yeah, 00:15:05.07\00:15:08.70 look at the Somme one, 39, 7 with the show. I go from thy 00:15:08.70\00:15:13.91 spirit with the show live free from that presence. If I ascend 00:15:13.91\00:15:18.71 into heaven Dal out there, if I make my bed it 00:15:18.71\00:15:24.29 there you are even down in the depths of the sea. Your hand 00:15:24.29\00:15:27.62 will find me 00:15:27.62\00:15:28.99 even David Fit and another way he said you can hide in the 00:15:28.99\00:15:32.69 daylight 00:15:32.69\00:15:34.00 and you can hide in the night. Yes, that's what the models 00:15:34.00\00:15:36.90 someone. 39 ye that Doc, Miss Hyde, if not from the but the 00:15:36.90\00:15:41.77 night. 00:15:41.77\00:15:42.97 Come on on. Get Happy.

They say, 00:17:10.19\00:17:13.23 well, God knew exactly where Jonah was hiding. He knew what 00:17:13.23\00:17:16.40 ship Jonah was on. He knew where the ship was headed and 00:17:16.40\00:17:19.90 God decided 00:17:19.90\00:17:21.44 to walk a straight for Jonah, our rendezvous with one of his 00:17:21.44\00:17:26.74 aquatic 00:17:26.74\00:17:28.64 live via the ends, seagoing servants that along with saying 00:17:32.38\00:17:36.95 a big fish 00:17:36.95\00:17:39.35 and the Bible tells us that God calls the great wind to come up 00:17:39.35\00:17:42.59 on the C it temper so powerful, not even the sailors could hide 00:17:42.59\00:17:48.33 that. Terry, you know my friends, 00:17:48.33\00:17:51.07 you don't play with the sea. 00:17:51.07\00:17:54.00 Sailing is wonderful. 00:17:54.00\00:17:56.07 But let me tell you something else you don't play. He win the 00:17:56.07\00:17:59.81 seat. 00:17:59.81\00:18:01.04 It will you out into its depths. Look. So pretty. 00:18:01.04\00:18:04.95 So good and leave you shaking in Terre, even the best ships 00:18:04.95\00:18:09.72 with all the technology and sturdy construction, even the 00:18:09.72\00:18:14.06 best build ships, no match for the sea. 00:18:14.06\00:18:18.69 And I'm sure the captain of donors ship at weathered many 00:18:18.69\00:18:22.40 storms before. But there was something hellish about this 00:18:22.40\00:18:27.40 storm. 00:18:27.40\00:18:28.77 The lightning was crackling. The fund was peeling. The waves 00:18:28.77\00:18:33.74 seem to be a mile high 00:18:33.74\00:18:36.61 and above the howling of the wind is the captain screen. 00:18:36.61\00:18:39.88 Every man on debt. 00:18:39.88\00:18:41.95 Every man call on yoga to save the ship. 00:18:41.95\00:18:45.82 Friends. You know that a ship since trouble, you know, 00:18:45.82\00:18:48.39 ships in trouble when the captain is calling for prayer. 00:18:48.39\00:18:53.33 When grown men are crying like babies, 00:18:57.50\00:19:01.27 that ships in trouble were too heavy to captain shouted for 00:19:01.27\00:19:05.31 all the call, go overboard. And they did just that. But 00:19:05.31\00:19:08.68 still, the ship was in peril in danger. And suddenly one sailor 00:19:08.68\00:19:12.85 right up to the captain said, sir, 00:19:12.85\00:19:15.18 there's a man down here in the side of the ship 00:19:15.18\00:19:19.25 and we can explain it. 00:19:19.25\00:19:21.09 But he's sleeping. 00:19:21.09\00:19:23.59 Safeway. Did you say sleeping? The captain went and found 00:19:23.59\00:19:27.60 Jonah, walk him out. He said to Matt, how can you see in a 00:19:27.60\00:19:31.97 storm like this? Good and pray to you? Oh, God. 00:19:31.97\00:19:36.00 The gentile was asking Jonah to pray to the God he was running 00:19:36.00\00:19:40.84 from 00:19:40.84\00:19:44.45 and the Bible tells us the sailors became suspicious and 00:19:44.45\00:19:48.12 they drew lots and everything pointed to Jonah as the 00:19:48.12\00:19:52.62 causative factor behind the fury of the storm and they set 00:19:52.62\00:19:57.19 to join a so yeah. The one to blame for this storm. Are you 00:19:57.19\00:20:02.10 what country are you from? What is your nationality and 00:20:02.10\00:20:05.97 why are you on this ship? 00:20:05.97\00:20:08.87 And then a cogent moment of honest, candid up. 00:20:08.87\00:20:13.24 Jonah said I hear 00:20:13.24\00:20:15.58 and I'm a man running from Jehovah. 00:20:15.58\00:20:19.51 I'm running in rebellion from God. And if you want this to 00:20:19.51\00:20:24.65 strong to stop, you will just have to be overboard. If you 00:20:24.65\00:20:29.96 throw me off this ship, the billows will cease. The waves 00:20:29.96\00:20:34.56 will become tranquil and serene again. 00:20:34.56\00:20:37.60 And the Bible tells us enjoy no one verse 13 to sailors didn't 00:20:37.60\00:20:40.87 want to do it. But as the storm grew worse, they realize they 00:20:40.87\00:20:45.94 have no other choice and so enjoy one 15. The Bible says 00:20:45.94\00:20:50.45 they pick Jonah up, 00:20:50.45\00:20:52.68 lifted him off his feet, Swann, him back and forth. And with 00:20:52.68\00:20:58.29 that desperate, 00:20:58.29\00:21:00.22 yes, he day 3, Joan, out over the side of the ship, 00:21:00.22\00:21:07.20 Jonah went sailing. 00:21:07.20\00:21:09.80 Yeah. And as they fell into the water, 00:21:09.80\00:21:13.87 all of a sudden he heard a great short 00:21:13.87\00:21:18.34 and suddenly that was no water wrapped around his head. 00:21:18.34\00:21:23.31 Suddenly there was silence 00:21:23.31\00:21:26.78 doc, miss and golfed and consumed him. Jonah was in the 00:21:26.78\00:21:31.95 sea, but there was no warmer around him. 00:21:31.95\00:21:35.92 He was in the sea. But there was no. There were no waves to 00:21:35.92\00:21:40.03 drown him. Jonah realizes in the sea, but I'm still 00:21:40.03\00:21:44.30 breathing. 00:21:44.30\00:21:46.10 And then Jonah heard another rumbling, bellowing breathing, 00:21:46.10\00:21:52.11 sound like a horse blowing through his nostrils. He 00:21:52.11\00:21:59.35 and every so often, Jonah would feel a cold breeze of cold air 00:21:59.35\00:22:04.69 rushed over his body. And that's when it hit him that he 00:22:04.69\00:22:09.76 had been swallow by a monster of the sea. And that's when he 00:22:09.76\00:22:14.93 realized he was now in case in the bed of a of a great pitch. 00:22:14.93\00:22:21.37 The bottle says it this way. Now the law and that prepare, 00:22:21.37\00:22:24.84 agree, fish just swallow up. Jonah and Jonah 00:22:24.84\00:22:30.35 was in the belly of the fish 3 days. How long? 00:22:30.35\00:22:35.62 3 days. Thank you list. And 3 day. Yeah, 00:22:35.62\00:22:40.06 3 nights 00:22:40.06\00:22:41.79 now they're off the logins erudite 00:22:41.79\00:22:44.89 intellectuals, 00:22:44.89\00:22:47.23 skeptics who take issue with this account of Jonah in the 00:22:47.23\00:22:51.63 belly of a fish for 3 days. These learned scholars say it 00:22:51.63\00:22:55.44 is physically impossible for a man to be in the belly of a 00:22:55.44\00:23:00.14 fish with 3 days. You know what I say to them? 00:23:00.14\00:23:03.98 Would you like to know? 00:23:03.98\00:23:06.48 I say to them what God said to Joe, 00:23:06.48\00:23:10.19 were you when God laid the foundations of the year 00:23:10.19\00:23:15.49 and do you know the laws that govern not just all the 00:23:15.49\00:23:18.89 evidence, can you speak to the clouds and make it rain and 00:23:18.89\00:23:23.80 that will keep him quiet and continue on a, you know, 00:23:23.80\00:23:27.40 will the lightning the flash and what you're against 00:23:27.40\00:23:33.98 all? I got my my PhD from Harvard and Yale or impressive. 00:23:33.98\00:23:38.98 One more thing. Does the sun shine your decree? 00:23:38.98\00:23:44.32 Does the eagle soar at your command 00:23:44.32\00:23:47.59 friends that line of questioning silence job and it 00:23:47.59\00:23:51.76 will silence your critics too. 00:23:51.76\00:23:54.83 Let me tell you one reason why I believe 00:23:54.83\00:23:58.00 that Jonah was in the belly of that fish for 3 days like the 00:23:58.00\00:24:02.77 Bible says, 00:24:02.77\00:24:05.97 because 00:24:05.97\00:24:07.18 she's a said it happened 00:24:07.18\00:24:11.81 in the book of Matthew Jesus. For just this is what Jesus 00:24:11.81\00:24:15.78 said for just as Joe 00:24:15.78\00:24:20.12 was 3 days and 3 nights in the belly of the great fish. 00:24:20.12\00:24:25.19 So will the son of man the 3 days and 3 nights in the heart 00:24:25.19\00:24:30.57 of the year. So if you present me with the charts of all, 00:24:30.57\00:24:34.90 I'm going to believe 00:24:34.90\00:24:37.11 I'm going with Jesus. 00:24:37.11\00:24:39.94 That's what you say to those skeptical theologians. I'm I 00:24:39.94\00:24:43.04 going to believe you or Jesus 00:24:43.04\00:24:46.18 and then at and then after that to you again, 00:24:46.18\00:24:50.05 I'm going to take the word of Jesus over any theologians any 00:24:53.36\00:24:56.59 day, 00:24:56.59\00:24:59.19 too many people try to bully you 00:24:59.19\00:25:02.03 when they don't believe me 00:25:02.03\00:25:03.97 when they 00:25:03.97\00:25:05.13 don't believe the way you Billy, 00:25:05.13\00:25:10.04 I will always be indebted to my friend and mentor Elden the 00:25:10.04\00:25:13.34 Marshal Kelly 00:25:13.34\00:25:15.08 for something he talked May before he died. 00:25:15.08\00:25:18.18 He showed me a scripture that is up constant reminder to me. 00:25:18.18\00:25:22.75 You need not fear any man. When you fear Gaw 00:25:22.75\00:25:27.66 the scripture he gave me as a reminder 00:25:27.66\00:25:30.86 is a reminder that no matter how rich 00:25:30.86\00:25:34.96 all passing 00:25:34.96\00:25:36.73 or educated off famous, a man is 00:25:36.73\00:25:41.10 one day. 00:25:41.10\00:25:45.14 I said one day 00:25:45.14\00:25:47.81 that Richman will show his last morsel. 00:25:47.81\00:25:52.15 >> One day 00:25:52.15\00:25:54.02 that path home and will breathe his last breath. 00:25:54.02\00:25:58.19 I don't care if he lives in the White House. 00:25:58.19\00:26:01.99 All you know how much 00:26:01.99\00:26:04.46 he made on thousands of acres of land. But 00:26:04.46\00:26:07.66 >> like I heard a wise man who supports the 3ABN, ministry say 00:26:07.66\00:26:11.00 one day, he said, I wonder what the price of real estate was 00:26:11.00\00:26:15.44 just before the flood. 00:26:15.44\00:26:19.81 When Jesus comes all the land. You all know me nothing. 00:26:19.81\00:26:25.91 So at no matter how people try to intimidate you or rail and 00:26:25.91\00:26:30.39 bluster, they may rang and threaten. 00:26:30.39\00:26:32.89 >> You need not fear any man when you fear God, because my 00:26:32.89\00:26:38.19 God says that one day his lips will be cold and silent. 00:26:38.19\00:26:45.43 His brains and bowels will not work. 00:26:45.43\00:26:50.01 >> Or you didn't hear what I just said. 00:26:50.01\00:26:53.58 So yes, they might hit rocks. They may have a laugh. No need 00:26:53.58\00:26:57.55 to fear. They may tell rise and intimidate. No need to fear. 00:26:57.55\00:27:01.48 You need not fear any man when you fear gone. 00:27:01.48\00:27:05.79 And here's why. He's while Kelly gave me the script for 00:27:05.79\00:27:08.26 his work on says 00:27:08.26\00:27:10.26 Isaiah 51 verse 12 Gotsis. I even I am he that comfort to 00:27:10.26\00:27:16.33 you? 00:27:16.33\00:27:19.13 You should ever be afraid of a man that shout out. 00:27:19.13\00:27:25.24 But you should ever be afraid of the sun. A man 00:27:28.31\00:27:32.31 one day be made as grass. 00:27:32.31\00:27:36.05 Oh, I better get back to the story of Joan. I'm getting 00:27:36.05\00:27:40.59 the Bible says and Jonah to verse one, 00:27:40.59\00:27:43.26 then join a parade 00:27:43.26\00:27:45.86 unto the Lord. He's gone 00:27:45.86\00:27:50.60 fish's belly. 00:27:50.60\00:27:53.17 And from the belly of that fish, 00:27:53.17\00:27:55.44 Jonah prayed and listen to expert. He said I cried by 00:27:55.44\00:27:59.91 reason of mine affliction unto the Lord 00:27:59.91\00:28:03.81 and he heard me 00:28:03.81\00:28:06.11 out of the belly up. 00:28:06.11\00:28:09.35 I cry 00:28:09.35\00:28:10.82 and Gaw her, my friend, my voice friends.

All grace. 00:41:46.07\00:41:51.61 And I found that Scripture Titus chapter 2 verse 11. 00:41:51.61\00:41:55.41 The Bible says for the grace I'm gone. 00:41:55.41\00:42:00.15 >> Brings salvation 00:42:00.15\00:42:03.05 the grace, 00:42:05.42\00:42:09.92 salvation to all men.

So that means my 00:43:01.14\00:43:09.05 salvation. 00:43:09.05\00:43:10.89 Just a post-op, 00:43:10.89\00:43:12.72 salvation is not just being rescued. 00:43:12.72\00:43:17.93 Salvation. 00:43:17.93\00:43:21.43 3 things, rescue, 00:43:21.43\00:43:24.73 redemption 00:43:24.73\00:43:27.07 and restoration. 00:43:27.07\00:43:30.97 He rescued you 00:43:30.97\00:43:33.61 so he could restore you. 00:43:33.61\00:43:38.25 He rescued you so he could change. So the character of 00:43:38.25\00:43:43.15 price can be revealed.
