CHRISTIANS, THAT WE DON'T

00:05:21.98\00:05:25.19
CHRISTMAS THEME ONLY AT

00:05:25.19\00:05:29.96
SHOULD BE LIVING IN OUR

00:10:35.36\00:10:38.83
FULLER UNDERSTANDING OF THIS
GREAT TRUTH THAT JESUS IS NOT
00:10:38.83\00:10:42.74
ONLY JOB'S REDEEMER,
BUT HE'S OUR REDEEMER.
00:10:42.74\00:10:45.94
BLESS OUR TIME
TOGETHER, IN JESUS' NAME, AMEN.
00:10:45.94\00:10:49.38
OUR LESSON THIS MORNING WILL
BE BROUGHT TO US BY PASTOR DOUG.
00:10:49.38\00:10:56.62
>>THANK YOU, PASTOR ROSS,
AND THANK YOU TO OUR MUSICIANS.
00:10:56.62\00:11:01.19
IT'S FUN TO HAVE ALL THE EXTRA
INSTRUMENTS HERE - THE SINGERS,
00:11:01.19\00:11:05.39
KIND OF A LITTLE MINI CHOIR, AND
THE ORCHESTRA AND WE APPRECIATE
00:11:05.39\00:11:08.43
THAT. WELCOME TO
OUR SABBATH SCHOOL
00:11:08.43\00:11:11.10
CLASS, FRIENDS, AND I
THINK PASTOR ROSS MENTIONED
00:11:11.10\00:11:14.04
WE DO HAVE A FREE OFFER.
IT'S CHRIST'S HUMAN NATURE -
00:11:14.04\00:11:17.11
GOOD BOOK, AND -
ABOUT OUR REDEEMER.
00:11:17.11\00:11:20.18
ASK FOR OFFER #703 WHEN
YOU REQUEST THAT AND IT'S
00:11:20.18\00:11:23.78
866-STUDY-MORE. OUR
LESSON IS #12 - WE'RE
00:11:23.78\00:11:28.98
CONTINUING IN THE STUDY OF JOB.
NOW, IT SEEMS LIKE WE'VE BEEN
00:11:28.98\00:11:32.52
IN JOB A LONG TIME, BUT
WE'RE REALLY NOT EVEN COVERING A
00:11:32.52\00:11:36.46
FRACTION OF THE MEATY MATERIAL
IN THE 42 CHAPTERS OF JOB.
00:11:36.46\00:11:42.60
IT'S ONE OF THE
BIGGEST BOOKS IN THE BIBLE.
00:11:42.60\00:11:44.63
AND SO, IT JUST
- IT'S FASCINATING.
00:11:44.63\00:11:49.34
NOW TODAY IS, QUITE HONESTLY,
GOING TO BE ONE OF MY FAVORITE
00:11:49.34\00:11:53.31
STUDIES IN OUR LESSON
DEALING WITH JOB'S REDEEMER.
00:11:53.31\00:11:57.08
NOT JUST BECAUSE IT TALKS ABOUT
JESUS, BUT BECAUSE IT GIVES ME A
00:11:57.08\00:12:01.58
CHANCE - AN OPPORTUNITY - TO
DWELL ON MY HOBBY HORSE IN THE
00:12:01.58\00:12:06.15
BIBLE. MY SPECIAL
LOVE, WHEN STUDYING
00:12:06.15\00:12:11.93
THE BIBLE, ESPECIALLY IN
THE OLD TESTAMENT, IS TO LOOK
00:12:11.93\00:12:14.36
FOR THE TYPES OF CHRIST.
SOME OF YOU KNOW I WROTE A
00:12:14.36\00:12:17.67
BOOK - AND IT SOUNDS LIKE I'M
PLUGGING MY BOOK - MAYBE I AM.
00:12:17.67\00:12:21.40
IT'S CALLED SHADOWS OF
LIGHT: CHRIST IN ALL THE BIBLE .
00:12:21.40\00:12:24.44
I JUST KIND OF WENT THROUGH MOST
OF THE OLD TESTAMENT HEROES AND
00:12:24.44\00:12:27.18
I SAY, 'HOW ARE
THEY TYPES OF CHRIST?'
00:12:27.18\00:12:29.31
AND I'VE JUST BEEN CHOMPING AT
THE BIT FOR A CHANCE TO NOW LOOK
00:12:29.31\00:12:31.98
AT THE STORY OF JOB AND SAY,
'WHERE DO WE SEE TYPES OF JESUS
00:12:31.98\00:12:37.59
IN THE STORY OF
JOB?' AND SO WE'RE GOING TO
00:12:37.59\00:12:39.19
DO SOME OF THAT TODAY.
BUT FIRST OUR MEMORY VERSE -
00:12:39.19\00:12:41.99
AND YOU CAN SAY THIS WITH
ME - MEMORY VERSE FOR OUR STUDY
00:12:41.99\00:12:44.66
TODAY, ISAIAH 53,
VERSE 4 - ISAIAH 53, VERSE 4.
00:12:44.66\00:12:49.26
YOU READY? YOU WANT
TO SAY THAT WITH ME?
00:12:49.26\00:12:51.97
"SURELY HE HAS BORNE OUR GRIEFS
AND CARRIED OUR SORROWS; YET WE
00:12:51.97\00:12:57.71
ESTEEMED HIM STRICKEN,
SMITTEN BY GOD, AND AFFLICTED."
00:12:57.71\00:13:02.61
NOW, OF COURSE, THAT IS THAT
GREAT CHAPTER WE'LL TALK ABOUT
00:13:02.61\00:13:05.35
LATER, WHERE IT TALKS ABOUT
THE SUFFERING SAVIOR IN THE OLD
00:13:05.35\00:13:09.92
TESTAMENT.
ALRIGHT, SO GETTING INTO THE
00:13:09.92\00:13:12.75
LESSON JOB'S REDEEMER AND, OF
COURSE, THIS IS SPRINGING FROM
00:13:12.75\00:13:16.42
THAT VERSE YOU FIND IN JOB 19,
VERSES 25 THROUGH VERSE 27 WHERE
00:13:16.42\00:13:23.60
HE SAYS, "FOR I KNOW THAT
MY REDEEMER LIVES, AND HE SHALL
00:13:23.60\00:13:27.20
STAND AT LAST ON THE EARTH; AND
AFTER MY SKIN IS DESTROYED, THIS
00:13:27.20\00:13:32.67
I KNOW," - YOU SEE, UNTIL HE'S
GOT FAITH - "THAT IN MY FLESH I
00:13:32.67\00:13:37.61
SHALL SEE GOD, WHOM I SHALL SEE
FOR MYSELF, AND MY EYES SHALL
00:13:37.61\00:13:41.58
BEHOLD, AND NOT ANOTHER.
HOW MY HEART YEARNS WITHIN ME!"
00:13:41.58\00:13:45.72
YOU CAN TELL THAT JOB BELIEVED
THAT EVEN AFTER OUR BODIES ARE
00:13:45.72\00:13:50.09
LAID IN A GRAVE, YET IN A
RESURRECTED BODY - "IN MY FLESH
00:13:50.09\00:13:53.09
I SHALL SEE GOD" -
SEE HIM FACE TO FACE.
00:13:53.09\00:13:56.53
NOW SOMEONE'S GOING TO
READ FOR ME, IN A MOMENT,
00:13:56.53\00:13:58.27
REVELATION 22:4.
BEFORE WE GET THERE, I'M ALSO
00:13:58.27\00:14:02.00
GOING TO GO TO
ISAIAH 48:17. JOB IS TALKING
00:14:02.00\00:14:05.61
ABOUT THE REDEEMER. A
COMING REDEEMER IS EVEN
00:14:05.61\00:14:08.94
AN OLD TESTAMENT THEME.
AND IT SAYS HERE IN ISAIAH
00:14:08.94\00:14:12.45
48:17, "THUS SAYS THE LORD, YOUR
REDEEMER," - GOD - IF YOUR CHILD
00:14:12.45\00:14:19.72
IS KIDNAPPED, IF THE KIDNAPPER
IS DOING IT RIGHT, HE'S
00:14:19.72\00:14:25.36
SUPPOSED TO SEND YOU A
NOTE AND SAY 'THERE'S A RANSOM.
00:14:25.36\00:14:28.73
AND IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO
REDEEM, THIS IS THE PRICE.'
00:14:28.73\00:14:35.50
MAYBE YOU'VE
TAKEN SOMETHING BEFORE -
00:14:35.50\00:14:38.01
YOU NEEDED SOME MONEY, YOU
DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY, BUT YOU
00:14:38.01\00:14:40.38
HAD SOMETHING OF
VALUE AND SO YOU PAWNED IT.
00:14:40.38\00:14:42.44
AND THE PAWN SHOP WILL MAYBE
GIVE YOU TWENTY PERCENT OF ITS
00:14:42.44\00:14:45.38
VALUE, IF YOU'RE LUCKY AND AFTER
YOU GOT THE MONEY BACK, YOU
00:14:45.38\00:14:50.85
WANTED THAT SAXOPHONE, OR
WHATEVER IT WAS, YOU WANTED IT
00:14:50.85\00:14:53.79
BACK BECAUSE YOU KNEW IT WAS
WORTH A LOT MORE THAN $20.00.
00:14:53.79\00:14:57.16
I HAD TO GET SOME MONEY ONCE AND
I HAD A SAXOPHONE - I PAWNED IT
00:14:57.16\00:15:00.66
FOR $20.00 - I'M
SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE.
00:15:00.66\00:15:03.40
IT WAS WORTH A
LOT MORE THAN THAT.
00:15:03.40\00:15:05.27
THEY'LL ONLY HOLD IT FOR YOU FOR
A FEW WEEKS AND IF YOU WANT TO
00:15:05.27\00:15:07.90
REDEEM IT, YOU'VE GOT TO COME
BACK AND YOU'VE GOT TO GIVE THEM
00:15:07.90\00:15:10.97
$30.00 SO THEY MAKE A
PROFIT ON IT TO GET IT BACK.
00:15:10.97\00:15:14.61
IT'S VERY EXPENSIVE
MONEY. AND SO IT'S THE
00:15:14.61\00:15:18.58
PRICE OF REDEMPTION. IN
THE BIBLE, IF YOU LOST YOUR
00:15:18.58\00:15:23.42
PROPERTY, YOU COULD HAVE A
KINSMAN THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO
00:15:23.42\00:15:28.62
REDEEM YOUR PROPERTY AND
THEY WERE CALLED THE KINSMAN
00:15:28.62\00:15:31.99
REDEEMER, BECAUSE THEY WERE FROM
THE RIGHT FAMILY LINE - FROM
00:15:31.99\00:15:34.73
YOUR FAMILY LINE - AND
THAT'S THE STORY OF RUTH.
00:15:34.73\00:15:38.03
NAOMI LOST HER PROPERTY
DURING A TIME OF FAMINE.
00:15:38.03\00:15:41.20
THEY NEEDED
SOMEBODY TO BE A REDEEMER.
00:15:41.20\00:15:43.30
BOAZ WAS THE KINSMAN REDEEMER.
WELL, THE HUMAN RACE HAS BEEN
00:15:43.30\00:15:46.81
KIDNAPPED AND
CHRIST PAID THE RANSOM.
00:15:46.81\00:15:50.31
WE'RE ALL GUILTY OF SIN -
THE PENALTY FOR SIN IS DEATH.
00:15:50.31\00:15:53.52
JESUS PAID FOR THE PENALTY WITH
HIS BLOOD - HIS DEATH - AND HE
00:15:53.52\00:15:58.39
IS OUR REDEEMER.
SO JOB KNEW THAT THERE
00:15:58.39\00:16:01.69
WOULD BE A REDEEMER.
AND, ALSO IN THAT VERSE, FROM
00:16:01.69\00:16:04.43
JOB 19, TALKS ABOUT
'WHO I WILL SEE FOR MYSELF.
00:16:04.43\00:16:08.36
RIGHT NOW I KNOW ABOUT HIM BUT
I DON'T SEE HIM, BUT SOMEDAY I
00:16:08.36\00:16:10.77
WILL SEE HIM. OF
COURSE, WHEN YOU GET TO
00:16:10.77\00:16:13.67
CHAPTER 42, JOB DOES SEE
HIM - OR HE AT LEAST SEES
00:16:13.67\00:16:16.37
WHAT MOSES SAW. AND IT
SAYS IN REVELATION 1:7,
00:16:16.37\00:16:20.71
"BEHOLD, HE IS COMING
WITH CLOUDS, AND EVERY
00:16:20.71\00:16:22.78
EYE WILL SEE HIM."
READ, FOR US THEN, JOB - I'M
00:16:22.78\00:16:26.25
SORRY, REVELATION 22:4 PLEASE.
>>"THEY SHALL SEE HIS FACE,
00:16:26.25\00:16:30.95
AND HIS NAME SHALL
BE ON THEIR FOREHEADS."
00:16:30.95\00:16:34.52
>>YOU KNOW, THE BIBLE SAYS WE'RE
GOING TO SEE HIM FACE TO FACE.
00:16:34.52\00:16:37.43
ANY OF YOU EVER
SUNG THAT SONG BEFORE?
00:16:37.43\00:16:38.99
IT'S IN OUR HYMN BOOKS. I
LOVE THAT: FACE TO FACE WITH
00:16:38.99\00:16:41.23
MY REDEEMER - AND SO, JOB
IS TALKING ABOUT THESE THEMES.
00:16:41.23\00:16:44.87
WE HAVE A REDEEMER THAT WE
SOMEDAY WILL SEE FACE TO FACE;
00:16:44.87\00:16:47.94
MAYBE NOT IN THIS BODY, WHICH
WILL BE DESTROYED AND EATEN BY
00:16:47.94\00:16:50.91
WORMS, BUT YET IN MY FLESH,
A GLORIFIED RESURRECTED BODY WE
00:16:50.91\00:16:54.38
WILL SEE HIM FOR OURSELVES.
SO WE'RE GOING TO SPEND THE NEXT
00:16:54.38\00:16:58.08
FEW MINUTES LOOKING AT NOT
ALL, BUT SOME OF THE WAYS THAT
00:16:58.08\00:17:01.65
JOB IS A TYPE OF CHRIST.
FOR ONE THING, HAVE YOU EVER
00:17:01.65\00:17:05.95
NOTICED, THERE'S A LOT OF
GENEALOGIES IN THE BIBLE WHERE
00:17:05.95\00:17:10.03
IT TALKS ABOUT THIS PERSON -
MATTER OF FACT, IN MY PERSONAL
00:17:10.03\00:17:12.76
BIBLE READING, I'M GOING
THROUGH CHRONICLES RIGHT NOW.
00:17:12.76\00:17:16.10
AND YOU SEE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT
IN THE BOOK OF NUMBERS, BUT I'M
00:17:16.10\00:17:18.93
READING THROUGH CHRONICLES AND
THERE TIMES WHEN CHRONICLES MAY
00:17:18.93\00:17:21.84
SEEM TEDIOUS. I'M
COMMITTED - EVERY DAY EXCEPT
00:17:21.84\00:17:25.44
SABBATH, I'M
READING THROUGH THE BIBLE.
00:17:25.44\00:17:27.31
EVERY DAY - EVERY DAY - FOR
YEARS - I'M ALWAYS SOMEWHERE
00:17:27.31\00:17:30.31
READING THROUGH THE
BIBLE. I JUST HAPPEN TO BE IN
00:17:30.31\00:17:32.38
CHRONICLES NOW BUT, YOU KNOW,
I'VE BEEN READING THE BIBLE SO
00:17:32.38\00:17:36.45
LONG THAT IT'S MENTIONING THESE
DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND I RECOGNIZE
00:17:36.45\00:17:40.06
THEM AND IT - YOU JUST - EVERY
TIME YOU GO THROUGH IT YOU LEARN
00:17:40.06\00:17:45.23
SOME INTERESTING THINGS,
BUT THERE'S NO CHRONICLE OF JOB
00:17:45.23\00:17:50.80
UNLESS JOB IS THIS
KING OF EDOM NAMED JOBAB.
00:17:50.80\00:17:57.04
IT TALKS ABOUT A
KING OF EDEN NAMED JOBAB.
00:17:57.04\00:17:59.94
AND SOME HAVE
WONDERED WAS THAT HIM?
00:17:59.94\00:18:01.18
AND THE TIMING IS
RIGHT SO IT COULD HAVE BEEN.
00:18:01.18\00:18:03.11
BUT JOB SORT OF APPEARS.
IT SAYS HE HAS ALL THESE
00:18:03.11\00:18:05.61
CHILDREN, BUT IT - AND IT NAMES
HIS DAUGHTERS, WHICH IS VERY
00:18:05.61\00:18:07.92
UNUSUAL; USUALLY
IT NAMES THE SONS.
00:18:07.92\00:18:09.85
WE DON'T KNOW THE NAME OF ANY
OF JOB'S SONS, BUT WE KNOW THE
00:18:09.85\00:18:12.75
NAMES OF HIS DAUGHTERS.
ISN'T THAT INTERESTING?
00:18:12.75\00:18:16.49
AND - BUT IT DOESN'T
TELL WHERE HIS GENEALOGY GOES.
00:18:16.49\00:18:19.49
SO, LIKE MELCHIZEDEK, WHO IS
A TYPE OF CHRIST WHO SUDDENLY
00:18:19.49\00:18:22.96
APPEARS ON THE SCENE, WE
DON'T KNOW WHAT TRIBE HE'S FROM.
00:18:22.96\00:18:25.90
WE DON'T KNOW WHO
HIS ANCESTORS ARE FROM.
00:18:25.90\00:18:27.54
WE DON'T KNOW WHO HIS PEOPLE ARE
- HE APPEARS, HE DISAPPEARS, WE
00:18:27.54\00:18:30.14
DON'T KNOW WHO HIS DESCENDANTS
ARE. CHRIST IS EVERLASTING TO
00:18:30.14\00:18:33.71
EVERLASTING - THE GREAT
I AM, ETERNALLY EXISTENT.
00:18:33.71\00:18:37.01
AND SO, JOB IS A TYPE
OF CHRIST IN THAT RESPECT.
00:18:37.01\00:18:39.91
HE APPEARS - WE DON'T
KNOW WHAT TRIBE HE COMES FROM.
00:18:39.91\00:18:42.35
HE DISAPPEARS - WE DON'T
KNOW WHO HIS POSTERITY IS.
00:18:42.35\00:18:47.19
AND IT TELLS US THAT JOB
WAS LIKE JESUS - OBEDIENT.
00:18:47.19\00:18:52.46
YOU READ IN JOB 23, VERSES 11
AND 12 AND IT SAYS, "MY FOOT HAS
00:18:52.46\00:18:56.87
HELD FAST TO HIS STEPS; I
HAVE KEPT HIS WAY AND NOT TURNED
00:18:56.87\00:19:00.14
ASIDE. I HAVE
NOT DEPARTED FROM THE
00:19:00.14\00:19:02.87
COMMANDMENT OF HIS LIPS;" NOW,
IS JOB SAYING HE WAS SINLESS?
00:19:02.87\00:19:06.74
NO, BUT HE WAS SAYING HE
WAS OBEDIENT TO HIS FATHER'S
00:19:06.74\00:19:10.38
COMMANDMENTS.
WAS THAT LIKE JESUS?
00:19:10.38\00:19:13.15
IF YOU READ IN MATTHEW - I'M
SORRY - JOHN 15:10, "IF YOU KEEP
00:19:13.15\00:19:19.15
MY COMMANDMENTS, YOU WILL ABIDE
IN MY LOVE, JUST AS I HAVE KEPT
00:19:19.15\00:19:22.32
MY FATHER'S COMMANDMENTS
AND ABIDE IN HIS LOVE."
00:19:22.32\00:19:24.66
SO JOB'S A TYPE OF
CHRIST IN HIS OBEDIENCE.
00:19:24.66\00:19:27.86
DID HE VIEW THE
WORD OF GOD AS FOOD?
00:19:27.86\00:19:31.43
JOB SAYS, IN JOB 23:12, "I HAVE
TREASURED THE WORDS OF HIS MOUTH
00:19:31.43\00:19:36.24
MORE THAN MY
NECESSARY FOOD." DOES JESUS SAY
00:19:36.24\00:19:38.37
SOMETHING LIKE
THAT? YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS?
00:19:38.37\00:19:42.54
"MAN" - MATTHEW 4:4 - "MAN WILL
NOT" - GO AHEAD, YOU SAY IT.
00:19:42.54\00:19:46.68
>>"BY BREAD ALONE."
>>"BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT
00:19:46.68\00:19:49.62
PROCEEDS FROM THE MOUTH
OF GOD." COMPARING THE WORD
00:19:49.62\00:19:51.32
OF GOD TO BREAD. NOW,
ONE OF THE TYPES OF CHRIST
00:19:51.32\00:19:56.26
- JESUS IS CALLED 'THE SERVANT'
- A PROPHECY ABOUT JESUS.
00:19:56.26\00:20:01.10
FOR INSTANCE, YOU LOOK IN ISAIAH
42:1, "BEHOLD MY SERVANT WHOM I
00:20:01.10\00:20:06.17
UPHOLD, MY ELECT ONE
IN WHOM MY SOUL DELIGHTS!
00:20:06.17\00:20:09.44
I HAVE PUT MY SPIRIT
UPON HIM. HE WILL BRING FORTH
00:20:09.44\00:20:12.81
JUSTICE TO THE
GENTILES." ISN'T THAT A
00:20:12.81\00:20:15.74
PROPHECY ABOUT JESUS? IN
THE OLD TESTAMENT HE'S CALLED
00:20:15.74\00:20:18.61
'THE SERVANT' -
THE SUFFERING SERVANT.
00:20:18.61\00:20:21.02
IS JOB REFERRED
TO AS 'THE SERVANT'?
00:20:21.02\00:20:23.35
LOOK IN THE FIRST FEW CHAPTERS
AND IT SAYS, IN JOB 2, FOR
00:20:23.35\00:20:26.52
INSTANCE, IN VERSE 3, "THE
LORD SAID TO SATAN, 'HAVE YOU
00:20:26.52\00:20:29.36
CONSIDERED MY SERVANT JOB...?'
AND JESUS, OF COURSE, SAID -
00:20:29.36\00:20:34.46
MATTHEW 20:28, "JUST AS THE
SON OF MAN DID NOT COME TO BE
00:20:34.46\00:20:38.90
SERVED, BUT TO SERVE,
AND TO GIVE HIS LIFE A
00:20:38.90\00:20:42.44
RANSOM FOR MANY."
SO JESUS AND JOB BOTH
00:20:42.44\00:20:45.94
IDENTIFIED AS
SERVANTS. WAS JESUS RICH?
00:20:45.94\00:20:51.15
IT SAYS, BY THE WAY, JOB
1 THROUGH - THIS MAN WAS THE
00:20:51.15\00:20:53.58
RICHEST OF ALL THE PEOPLE
IN THE EAST. WHAT ABOUT CHRIST?
00:20:53.58\00:20:58.15
HE OWNS THE CATTLE ON A THOUSAND
HILLS - JOB HAD A LOT OF CATTLE,
00:20:58.15\00:21:02.56
DIDN'T HE? DOES
JESUS HAVE A LOT OF CATTLE?
00:21:02.56\00:21:05.93
IF YOU WANT TO
THINK ABOUT IT THAT WAY.
00:21:05.93\00:21:07.86
IT SAYS HE OWNS THE CATTLE ON A
THOUSAND HILLS; THE EARTH IS THE
00:21:07.86\00:21:10.33
LORD'S AND THE FULLNESS THEREOF.
ANOTHER WAY JOB IS A TYPE OF
00:21:10.33\00:21:13.37
CHRIST, HE WAS HIGHLY
REVERED BY THE PEOPLE.
00:21:13.37\00:21:18.37
AND JOB, SPEAKING OF HIS DAYS
BEFORE HIS SUFFERINGS, IT SAYS
00:21:18.37\00:21:23.45
IN JOB 29, VERSE 7, "WHEN I WENT
OUT TO THE GATE BY THE CITY,
00:21:23.45\00:21:29.28
WHEN I TOOK MY SEAT IN THE OPEN
SQUARE," - HE'D SIT THERE ON HIS
00:21:29.28\00:21:31.79
THRONE - "THE YOUNG MEN
SAW ME AND HID, AND THE AGED
00:21:31.79\00:21:35.19
AROSE...THE PRINCES REFRAINED
FROM TALKING," - THAT'S ANOTHER
00:21:35.19\00:21:40.26
REASON I THINK THAT JOB WAS A
KING - IF PRINCES REFRAINED FROM
00:21:40.26\00:21:43.30
TALKING AND THE AGED ARISE
- "AND PUT THEIR HAND ON THEIR
00:21:43.30\00:21:47.60
MOUTH;" - THERE'S
GREAT REVERENCE FOR JOB.
00:21:47.60\00:21:51.64
YOU READ IN JOB 29, VERSE
11, "WHEN THE EAR HEARD, THEN IT
00:21:51.64\00:21:58.01
BLESSED ME, AND WHEN THE
EYE SAW, THEN IT APPROVED ME;
00:21:58.01\00:22:01.52
BECAUSE I DELIVERED THE POOR WHO
CRIED OUT, THE FATHERLESS AND
00:22:01.52\00:22:04.42
THE ONE WHO HAD NO HELPER."
ISN'T JESUS IDENTIFIED AS THE
00:22:04.42\00:22:07.16
ONE WHO CARES FOR THE
FATHERLESS AND THE WIDOW?
00:22:07.16\00:22:10.83
JOB WAS ALSO CHRIST-LIKE IN HIS
MINISTRY, YOU READ IN JOB 29,
00:22:10.83\00:22:16.30
VERSE 13, "THE BLESSING OF THE
PERISHING MAN CAME UPON ME," -
00:22:16.30\00:22:21.40
HE SO LOVED THE WORLD, HE DIDN'T
WANT US TO PERISH - AND HE
00:22:21.40\00:22:26.37
CAUSED THE WIDOW'S
HEART TO SING FOR JOY."
00:22:26.37\00:22:29.34
- JESUS HEALED MANY WIDOWS -
I PUT ON RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND IT
00:22:29.34\00:22:33.82
CLOTHED ME;" - THIS IS JOB
SPEAKING, BUT DOESN'T IT SOUND
00:22:33.82\00:22:36.42
LIKE CHRIST? YOU
SEE WHAT I'M SAYING?
00:22:36.42\00:22:38.99
JESUS, OF COURSE, WAS
CLOTHED WITH THE ROBE OF GOD'S
00:22:38.99\00:22:41.36
RIGHTEOUSNESS - "MY JUSTICE
WAS LIKE A ROBE AND A TURBAN."
00:22:41.36\00:22:46.39
- THE HIGH PRIEST
WORE THOSE GARMENTS.
00:22:46.39\00:22:48.53
CHRIST IS OUR HIGH PRIEST.
THE MINISTRY OF JOB SOUNDS LIKE
00:22:48.53\00:22:52.23
THE WORK OF JESUS WHILE ON
EARTH. THIS IS HOW JOB LIVED AND
00:22:52.23\00:22:55.97
MINISTERED - IT SAYS IN JOB
29, VERSE 15, "I WAS EYES TO THE
00:22:55.97\00:23:01.38
BLIND, AND I WAS
FEET TO THE LAME.
00:23:01.38\00:23:04.05
I WAS A FATHER TO THE POOR," -
HAVE YOU READ IN ISAIAH WHERE IT
00:23:04.05\00:23:06.92
TALKS ABOUT - IN ISAIAH
61 - THE MINISTRY OF CHRIST?
00:23:06.92\00:23:10.02
OPEN THE EYES OF THE BLIND AND
TO HEAL THE LAME AND HE GOES ON
00:23:10.02\00:23:17.63
TO SAY HE CARES FOR THE POOR AND
THE FATHERLESS - "AND I SEARCHED
00:23:17.63\00:23:21.06
OUT THE CASE THAT I DID NOT
KNOW." JOB 29:17, "I BROKE THE
00:23:21.06\00:23:26.63
FANGS OF THE WICKED AND PLUCKED
THE VICTIM FROM HIS TEETH."
00:23:26.63\00:23:30.64
LIKE DAVID RESCUED THE LAMB FROM
THE FANGS OF THE LION AND THE
00:23:30.64\00:23:35.01
BEAR, JOB SAYS HE RESCUED
THE INNOCENT FROM THE WICKED.
00:23:35.01\00:23:42.22
AND YOU GO ON TO THE NEXT
SECTION - THIS IS IN YOUR LESSON
00:23:42.22\00:23:44.62
UNDER THE SECTION
UNDER THE SON OF MAN .
00:23:44.62\00:23:46.25
SOMEONE IS GOING TO
READ FOR ME HEBREWS 4:15.
00:23:46.25\00:23:50.93
JUST A MOMENT; I'M GOING TO
READ JOB 10, VERSES 4 AND 5,
00:23:50.93\00:23:54.13
DESCRIBING THE SON OF MAN.
"DO YOU HAVE EYES OF FLESH?
00:23:54.13\00:23:58.40
OR DO YOU SEE AS MAN
SEES? ARE YOUR DAYS LIKE THE
00:23:58.40\00:24:02.10
DAYS OF A MORTAL MAN?
ARE YOUR YEARS LIKE THE DAYS
00:24:02.10\00:24:05.37
OF A MIGHTY MAN" - ALRIGHT, GO
AHEAD, PLEASE, READ THAT FOR US.
00:24:05.37\00:24:09.14
>>"FOR WE DO NOT HAVE A HIGH
PRIEST WHO CANNOT SYMPATHIZE
00:24:09.14\00:24:11.85
WITH OUR WEAKNESSES, BUT WAS
IN ALL POINTS TEMPTED AS WE ARE,
00:24:11.85\00:24:16.22
YET WITHOUT SIN."
>>ALRIGHT, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU
00:24:16.22\00:24:18.92
CAUGHT THE CONNECTION HERE,
MATTER OF FACT, IT TIES IN WELL
00:24:18.92\00:24:21.69
WITH OUR OFFER ABOUT
CHRIST'S HUMAN NATURE -
00:24:21.69\00:24:24.39
GOD BECAME A HUMAN.
THAT'S WHY JOB IS SAYING HERE,
00:24:24.39\00:24:28.56
IN CHAPTER 10, VERSES 4 AND 5,
'GOD, DO YOU HAVE EYES OF FLESH?
00:24:28.56\00:24:32.50
DO YOU SEE LIKE
THROUGH A MAN'S EYES?
00:24:32.50\00:24:34.60
DO YOU SEE AS A MAN
SEES? ARE YOUR DAYS LIKE THE
00:24:34.60\00:24:37.34
DAYS OF A MORTAL MAN?
ARE YOUR YEARS LIKE THE
00:24:37.34\00:24:40.04
DAYS OF A MIGHTY MAN?
DID - HAVE YOU EVER HEARD
00:24:40.04\00:24:43.81
SOMEONE SAY, 'WELL, YOU
DON'T KNOW HOW I REALLY FEEL.
00:24:43.81\00:24:46.01
YOU'VE NOT WALKED IN MY
MOCCASINS BEFORE.' DID GOD COME
00:24:46.01\00:24:49.78
DOWN AND BECOME A MAN? SO
JOB IS REFERRING TO THAT AND
00:24:49.78\00:24:52.95
IT SAYS THERE IN
HEBREWS, 'WHO BECAME A MAN'.
00:24:52.95\00:24:56.62
WE HAVE A FAITHFUL HIGH PRIEST
BECAUSE HE WAS TEMPTED IN ALL
00:24:56.62\00:24:59.49
POINTS AS WE ARE.
HE SUFFERED AS WE DO.
00:24:59.49\00:25:02.66
HE - NOW THIS - NOW I'M GOING TO
GET A LITTLE DEEP HERE FOR JUST
00:25:02.66\00:25:06.63
A SECOND, BUT WHAT ARE SOME
OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF GOD?
00:25:06.63\00:25:11.41
I'LL START OUT:
GOD IS OMNIPOTENT.
00:25:11.41\00:25:13.51
WHAT ARE THE
OTHER TWO? >>OMNISCIENT.
00:25:13.51\00:25:15.68
>>OMNISCIENT -
HE'S ALL-KNOWING. AND -
00:25:15.68\00:25:17.35
>>OMNIPRESENT. >>OMNIPRESENT.
00:25:17.35\00:25:19.85
WHEN JESUS BECAME A
MAN, COULD HE BE OMNIPRESENT?
00:25:19.85\00:25:28.79
THAT'S WHY HE SAID 'IT'S
EXPEDIENT THAT I GO AWAY.
00:25:28.79\00:25:32.86
I COULD BE WITH ONE OF YOU AT
A TIME, BUT IF I GO AWAY, I'LL
00:25:32.86\00:25:36.13
SEND THE HOLY SPIRIT - GOD, THE
SPIRIT IS OMNIPRESENT AND HE CAN
00:25:36.13\00:25:38.77
BE WITH ALL OF YOU AT ONCE AND I
WILL BE WITH YOU WHEREVER YOU GO
00:25:38.77\00:25:41.24
THROUGH THE SPIRIT.
AFTER THE RESURRECTION, DOES
00:25:41.24\00:25:44.61
JESUS EVER APPEAR AT
MORE THAN ONE PLACE AT A TIME?
00:25:44.61\00:25:50.35
THERE'S NO RECORD OF IT, ANYWAY.
HAS CHRIST FOREVER SACRIFICED
00:25:50.35\00:25:56.55
A DIMENSION OF HIS DIVINITY
TO BECOME A HUMAN IN THAT HE IS
00:25:56.55\00:26:01.86
NOT OMNIPRESENT RIGHT
NOW? THAT'S A QUESTION.
00:26:01.86\00:26:07.03
IT'S A PRETTY HEAVY QUESTION
WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT.
00:26:07.03\00:26:09.80
NOW, HE'S ALL-KNOWING - HE'S
WITH US NOW THROUGH THE SPIRIT -
00:26:09.80\00:26:12.17
HE KNOWS EVERYTHING - HE'S
ALL-POWERFUL, BUT IS HE STILL
00:26:12.17\00:26:15.94
HUMAN? WHEN HE ROSE, DID HE
00:26:15.94\00:26:18.74
STILL HAVE A HUMAN BODY?
IT'S KIND OF INTERESTING BECAUSE
00:26:18.74\00:26:20.88
GOD MADE MAN IN HIS IMAGE
AND THEN GOD RE-MADE HIMSELF
00:26:20.88\00:26:24.88
IN THE IMAGE OF MAN.
YOU EVER THINK ABOUT THAT?
00:26:24.88\00:26:30.32
SO CHRIST SACRIFICED A DIMENSION
OF HIS DIVINITY, AT LEAST
00:26:30.32\00:26:34.56
TEMPORARILY,
WHILE HE WAS ON EARTH.
00:26:34.56\00:26:36.52
HOW THAT HAPPENS
NOW I'M NOT SURE.
00:26:36.52\00:26:39.66
YOU KNOW, HE'S OMNIPRESENT
THROUGH THE SPIRIT, BUT WE HAVE
00:26:39.66\00:26:42.93
A PRIEST THAT HAS FOREVER
CONNECTED HIMSELF WITH THE HUMAN
00:26:42.93\00:26:46.03
RACE. WHAT ARE
SOME OTHER WAYS THAT
00:26:46.03\00:26:48.50
YOU FIND THE CONNECTION
BETWEEN JESUS AND JOB?
00:26:48.50\00:26:52.21
WELL, FOR ONE THING, JUST THE
WHOLE GREAT CONTROVERSY THAT -
00:26:52.21\00:26:57.88
IT SEEMS LIKE ALL OF THE FORCES
OF THE DEVIL ARE BENT ON TRYING
00:26:57.88\00:27:02.85
TO GET THIS MAN TO SIN.
WHAT WAS THE OBJECTIVE OF THE
00:27:02.85\00:27:07.79
DEVIL WHEN
CHRIST BEGAN TO SUFFER?
00:27:07.79\00:27:11.19
WHY WAS JESUS - WHY WAS
THE DEVIL TRYING TO MAKE JESUS
00:27:11.19\00:27:14.93
SUFFER? JUST RETALIATION?
00:27:14.93\00:27:16.23
JUST FOR
SINISTER JOY TO SEE PAIN?
00:27:16.23\00:27:18.50
OR WAS THE DEVIL
TRYING TO GET JESUS TO SIN?
00:27:18.50\00:27:23.20
HE WAS BENDING ALL OF THE
ENERGIES OF ALL THE OF DEMONS TO
00:27:23.20\00:27:26.78
TRY TO GET JESUS - THE DEVIL
WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY HAPPY IF
00:27:26.78\00:27:30.41
CHRIST HAD FINALLY RETALIATED
AGAINST THE ROMAN SOLDIERS OR
00:27:30.41\00:27:33.85
CURSED AND LOST
FAITH, OR SOMETHING.
00:27:33.85\00:27:36.52
BUT CHRIST SAID, 'IT IS
FINISHED.' HE NEVER SINNED.
00:27:36.52\00:27:40.26
SATAN WAS DEFEATED.
WHAT WAS THE OBJECTIVE
00:27:40.26\00:27:42.29
OF THE DEVIL WITH JOB?
GOD SAID, 'HAVE YOU BEHELD
00:27:42.29\00:27:45.53
THIS RIGHTEOUS MAN?' AND
THE DEVIL SAID, 'LET'S SEE.
00:27:45.53\00:27:48.20
HE'S NOT REALLY
GOING TO STAY RIGHTEOUS.
00:27:48.20\00:27:50.27
WATCH WHAT I CAN DO.' AND THE
DEVIL DOES EVERYTHING HE CAN.
00:27:50.27\00:27:54.07
BUT WHAT IS THE
RECORD IN THE BIBLE?
00:27:54.07\00:27:55.87
IN ALL THIS, JOB DID NOT SIN OR
CHARGE GOD FOOLISHLY - DID NOT
00:27:55.87\00:28:01.18
SIN WITH HIS LIPS OR
CHARGE GOD FOOLISHLY.
00:28:01.18\00:28:03.11
SO THE DEVIL
FAILED TO GET JOB TO SIN.
00:28:03.11\00:28:08.88
MATTER OF FACT, AT THE END,
YOU FIND THAT - AND I'M GETTING
00:28:08.88\00:28:11.59
AHEAD OF MYSELF - HE MEDIATES.
ANOTHER PARALLEL: WHEN JOB IS
00:28:11.59\00:28:18.93
GOING THROUGH HIS SUFFERINGS, HE
MAY NOT HAVE HAD ANY IDEA THAT
00:28:18.93\00:28:26.87
WHAT HE WENT THROUGH WAS GOING
TO END UP BEING A BLESSING FOR
00:28:26.87\00:28:29.70
ALL HUMANITY FOR AGES TO COME.
THE SUFFERINGS OF JESUS HAVE
00:28:29.70\00:28:34.44
BLESSED ALL OF HUMANITY -
WHAT HE WENT THROUGH, RIGHT?
00:28:34.44\00:28:38.11
BUT HASN'T THE WHOLE WORLD -
WHENEVER YOU GO THROUGH TRIALS
00:28:38.11\00:28:40.48
AND YOU THINK ABOUT WHY - LET
ME TELL YOU I, YOU KNOW, I'VE
00:28:40.48\00:28:43.02
SUFFERED TERRIBLE FINANCIAL
LOSS, I'VE LOST MY HEALTH, I'VE
00:28:43.02\00:28:46.45
LOST MY FAMILY - ALMOST NOBODY
YOU'VE MET CAN MEASURE UP TO
00:28:46.45\00:28:51.36
WHAT JOB WENT THROUGH.
SO JOB BECOMES A HERO FOR
00:28:51.36\00:28:55.63
ANYBODY WHO'S GOING THROUGH
TRIALS BECAUSE YOU THINK, IF JOB
00:28:55.63\00:28:58.63
MADE IT AND HE'S HUMAN, BY THE
GOD OF GRACE, JOB MADE IT - BY
00:28:58.63\00:29:03.37
THE GRACE OF GOD, I CAN MAKE
IT. I SAID THAT FUNNY, DIDN'T I?
00:29:03.37\00:29:07.41
I SAID BY THE GOD OF
GRACE - BY THE GRACE OF GOD.
00:29:07.41\00:29:09.58
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN
YOU PREACH AND YOU'RE KIND OF
00:29:09.58\00:29:11.15
DYSLEXIC, YOU TURN
YOUR WORDS AROUND LIKE THAT.
00:29:11.15\00:29:14.98
ALRIGHT, CARRYING ON, WITH
SOME OF THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN
00:29:14.98\00:29:18.15
JESUS AND JOB. WAS
JESUS PHYSICALLY DISFIGURED
00:29:18.15\00:29:23.09
THROUGH HIS SUFFERINGS?
YOU READ IN ISAIAH CHAPTER 52,
00:29:23.09\00:29:27.23
VERSE 14, IT SAYS, "JUST AS MANY
WERE ASTONISHED AT YOU, SO HIS
00:29:27.23\00:29:31.67
VISAGE WAS MARRED" - DISFIGURED
- "MORE THAN ANY MAN, AND HIS
00:29:31.67\00:29:36.27
FORM MORE THAN THE SONS OF
MEN;" THEY BEAT JESUS, THEY
00:29:36.27\00:29:40.38
WHIPPED JESUS, HIS FACE WAS
SWOLLEN, AND WHEN JOB'S FRIENDS
00:29:40.38\00:29:44.95
CAME TO SEE HIM AFTER HE HAD
SUFFERED, WAS IT HARD FOR THEM
00:29:44.95\00:29:48.55
TO RECOGNIZE HIM? JOB
2:12, "AND WHEN THEY RAISED
00:29:48.55\00:29:51.95
THEIR EYES FROM AFAR, AND DID
NOT RECOGNIZE HIM, THEY LIFTED
00:29:51.95\00:29:54.89
THEIR VOICES AND
WEPT;" IT SAYS 'FROM AFAR'.
00:29:54.89\00:29:58.43
WHERE DID THE DISCIPLES
BEHOLD JESUS ON THE CROSS?
00:29:58.43\00:30:01.26
DO YOU KNOW, IT SAYS 'THEY STOOD
AFAR OFF AND THEY WEPT AS THEY
00:30:01.26\00:30:04.57
BEHELD THESE THINGS' -
SIMILAR TO JOB'S FRIENDS.
00:30:04.57\00:30:08.70
BUT THEN IT SAYS HE'S FORSAKEN
BY HIS FRIENDS AND HIS FAMILY -
00:30:08.70\00:30:12.81
JOB 19:13, "HE HAS REMOVED
MY BROTHERS FAR FROM ME, AND MY
00:30:12.81\00:30:19.21
ACQUAINTANCES ARE COMPLETELY
ESTRANGED FROM ME. MY RELATIVES
00:30:19.21\00:30:22.98
HAVE FAILED, AND MY CLOSE
FRIENDS HAVE FORGOTTEN ME."
00:30:22.98\00:30:26.45
SO IT WASN'T JUST JOB'S
FRIENDS, IT WAS JOB'S FAMILY.
00:30:26.45\00:30:30.29
WE ALREADY KNOW HE LOST A
LOT OF HIS IMMEDIATE FAMILY.
00:30:30.29\00:30:33.16
HIS WIFE SAID, 'CURSE GOD AND
DIE.' HE PROBABLY HAD COUSINS
00:30:33.16\00:30:36.26
AND OTHER RELATIVES IN THE
AREA. THEY EVIDENTLY SAID, 'OH,
00:30:36.26\00:30:39.33
HE'S PROBABLY GETTING WHAT HE
DESERVES.' AND WHAT ABOUT JESUS?
00:30:39.33\00:30:43.00
DID HE HAVE A SIMILAR
EXPERIENCE? IT SAYS IN JOHN 7:5,
00:30:43.00\00:30:47.38
"FOR EVEN HIS BROTHERS
DID NOT BELIEVE IN HIM."
00:30:47.38\00:30:50.28
AND YOU CAN READ IN
MATTHEW 26:56, "...THEN ALL THE
00:30:50.28\00:30:54.08
DISCIPLES FORSOOK HIM AND FLED."
JOB SAID TO HIS FRIENDS - ARE
00:30:54.08\00:31:00.42
YOU SEEING SOME OF THE PARALLELS
BETWEEN JOB AND JESUS HERE?
00:31:00.42\00:31:04.96
AND YOU CAN READ IN JOB 6:27
- 'YOU WOULD EVEN CAST LOTS FOR
00:31:04.96\00:31:11.73
THE ORPHANS AND BARTER OVER YOUR
FRIEND.' SO SPEAKING ABOUT HIS
00:31:11.73\00:31:16.67
SUFFERINGS HE SAYS YOU'RE
CASTING LOTS AND BARTERING -
00:31:16.67\00:31:19.97
YOU'RE WEIGHING A PRICE TO SELL
OUT ON YOUR FRIEND IS WHAT HE'S
00:31:19.97\00:31:23.38
SAYING - YOU'D
BARTER OVER YOUR FRIEND.
00:31:23.38\00:31:26.28
DID THEY CAST LOTS AROUND
JESUS AND DID THEY BARTER HIM?
00:31:26.28\00:31:30.29
DID JUDAS TRADE HIM FOR
THIRTY PIECES OF SILVER?
00:31:30.29\00:31:33.76
NOW, I'M JUST
SKIMMING THE SURFACE.
00:31:33.76\00:31:35.89
YOU GO THROUGH THE BOOK OF JOB
AND, IF YOU PUT ON YOUR JESUS
00:31:35.89\00:31:38.83
GLASSES AS YOU READ THE BOOK
OF JOB, AND YOU START LOOKING AT
00:31:38.83\00:31:45.00
THE SUFFERINGS OF JOB AND YOU
START SEEING THERE'S LIKE ECHOES
00:31:45.00\00:31:49.24
OF JESUS ALL THROUGH THE BOOK.
WHERE, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE
00:31:49.24\00:31:53.51
GREAT THINGS ABOUT
CHRIST'S MISSION IS THE CROSS.
00:31:53.51\00:31:57.15
THE CROSS TELLS US ABOUT
THE SUFFERINGS OF CHRIST.
00:31:57.15\00:32:00.78
PAUL SAYS, 'I'M CRUCIFIED WITH
CHRIST AND WE'RE TOLD TO TAKE UP
00:32:00.78\00:32:05.15
OUR CROSS. ALL OF
THAT IS TALKING ABOUT THE
00:32:05.15\00:32:07.56
SUFFERINGS THAT HE WENT THROUGH.
AND, YOU KNOW, COMPARED TO
00:32:07.56\00:32:12.73
JESUS' LIFE, HIS 24-HOURS
OF SUFFERING WAS COMPARATIVELY
00:32:12.73\00:32:18.57
SHORT BUT IT WAS THE HIGH POINT
OF HIS LIFE - IS THE CROSS.
00:32:18.57\00:32:24.01
JOB LIVED,
EVIDENTLY, OVER 200 YEARS.
00:32:24.01\00:32:27.64
WE CAN ONLY ESTIMATE BECAUSE
HE'S REFERRED TO AS A PERSON OF
00:32:27.64\00:32:32.01
AGE AT THE TIME HE'S SUFFERING
AND YET, FROM THAT POINT, HE HAS
00:32:32.01\00:32:36.82
ANOTHER GROUP OF SEVEN SONS
AND THREE DAUGHTERS - NAMES THE
00:32:36.82\00:32:41.76
THREE DAUGHTERS - AND THEN
HE SEES HIS GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN.
00:32:41.76\00:32:45.03
SO YOU DO THE MATH AND
JOB LIVED TO ABOUT 200.
00:32:45.03\00:32:48.13
NOW THAT WASN'T THAT UNUSUAL FOR
- LIKE ABRAHAM'S FATHER WAS OVER
00:32:48.13\00:32:51.43
200 YEARS OF AGE, BUT IT
WAS UNUSUAL BY THE TIME THAT JOB
00:32:51.43\00:32:55.14
LIVED, DURING THE TIME OF ESAU
- THEY WERE ONLY LIVING TO 140.
00:32:55.14\00:32:58.84
SO HE HAD AN
EXCEPTIONALLY LONG LIFE.
00:32:58.84\00:33:01.78
BY THE WAY, DO YOU KNOW WHO THE
LAST REALLY OLD PERSON WAS IN
00:33:01.78\00:33:04.61
THE BIBLE? IT'S
NOT A TRICK QUESTION.
00:33:04.61\00:33:09.18
IT'S NOT A JOKE. HOW LONG DID
MOSES LIVE? 120 YEARS. WHO LIVED
00:33:09.18\00:33:18.93
LONGER, MOSES OR AARON? >>AARON.
00:33:18.93\00:33:22.06
>>AARON, I THINK, LIVED
123. WHO LIVED THE LONGEST - WHO
00:33:22.06\00:33:28.04
LIVED LONGER THAN MOSES AND
AARON AFTER MOSES AND AARON?
00:33:28.04\00:33:35.68
THE HIGH PRIEST - DID
I HEAR SOMEONE SAY IT?
00:33:35.68\00:33:38.88
THE HIGH PRIEST, DURING THE TIME
OF JOASH, WAS JEHOSHEBA - OH,
00:33:38.88\00:33:46.92
WAIT A SECOND, AM
I SAYING THAT RIGHT?
00:33:46.92\00:33:48.42
JEHOIADA - SORRY, JEHOIADA -
JEHOIADA LIVED 130 YEARS, WHICH
00:33:48.42\00:33:53.76
WAS VERY UNUSUAL BECAUSE HE
LIVES YEARS AFTER KING DAVID
00:33:53.76\00:33:57.13
WHERE HE SAID 'THE DAYS OF OUR
YEARS ARE THREE-SCORE AND TEN' -
00:33:57.13\00:34:00.04
SEVENTY - AND IF BY REASON
OF STRENGTH YOU MAKE IT TO 80,
00:34:00.04\00:34:02.14
THERE'S ACHES AND PAINS.'
THAT'S A ROUGH TRANSLATION.
00:34:02.14\00:34:05.67
BUT EVERY NOW AND THEN THERE'S
ONE LONG-LIVER THAT SHOWS UP AND
00:34:05.67\00:34:10.61
JOB LIVED AN UNUSUALLY LONG
TIME FOR HIS AGE THAT HE WAS IN.
00:34:10.61\00:34:14.18
NOW, JEHOIADA - 130 YEARS -
WOULD HAVE BEEN REALLY SAD IF HE
00:34:14.18\00:34:17.35
LIVED DURING THE
TIME JUST AFTER THE FLOOD.
00:34:17.35\00:34:19.69
THEY WOULD HAVE
THOUGHT, 'OH, SO SAD.
00:34:19.69\00:34:21.32
130 AND HE DIED
SO YOUNG.' RIGHT?
00:34:21.32\00:34:24.39
BUT BY THE TIME HE
LIVED 130 IT WAS VERY UNUSUAL.
00:34:24.39\00:34:28.26
I'VE HEARD - THEY SAY THAT THE
OLDEST PERSON IN THE WORLD TODAY
00:34:28.26\00:34:31.57
IS 116 AND WE HAD A MEMBER OF
OUR CHURCH - KAREN AND I WENT TO
00:34:31.57\00:34:37.21
VISIT - THAT WAS 111 AND
IN NAPA, BUT NOW I'M GETTING
00:34:37.21\00:34:43.08
DISTRACTED. OKAY, BACK TO JOB.
00:34:43.08\00:34:46.48
SO THERE'S JUST A FEW LITTLE
AMAZING FACTS I THROW IN THERE.
00:34:46.48\00:34:48.68
SO THERE'S ALL THE TYPES OF
CHRIST - FORSAKEN BY HIS FAMILY,
00:34:48.68\00:34:51.85
AND THEN IT SAYS HE'S HANDED
OVER TO THE UNGODLY - JOB 16:11
00:34:51.85\00:34:58.13
- "GOD HAS DELIVERED ME TO THE
UNGODLY, AND TURNED ME OVER TO
00:34:58.13\00:35:01.46
THE HANDS OF THE
WICKED." WAS CHRIST HANDED
00:35:01.46\00:35:03.77
OVER TO THE
GENTILES? THE UNBELIEVERS?
00:35:03.77\00:35:07.54
YEAH, YOU CAN READ THERE IN
JOHN 19:16, IT SAYS, "THEN [HE]
00:35:07.54\00:35:14.38
PILATE DELIVERED HIM
TO THEM TO BE CRUCIFIED.
00:35:14.38\00:35:17.18
SO THEY TOOK
JESUS AND LED HIM AWAY."
00:35:17.18\00:35:21.05
AND THEN IT TALKS ABOUT SPITTING
IN HIS FACE - JOB 30:10, "THEY
00:35:21.05\00:35:27.22
ABHOR ME, THEY KEEP FAR FROM ME;
THEY DO NOT HESITATE TO SPIT IN
00:35:27.22\00:35:31.23
MY FACE." NOW, YOU
MIGHT WONDER, WHEN DID
00:35:31.23\00:35:33.26
THAT HAPPEN IN THE STORY OF JOB?
YOU KNOW, THERE WAS A PERIOD
00:35:33.26\00:35:36.06
OF TIME WHEN, AFTER HE
LOST EVERYTHING AND HE LOST HIS
00:35:36.06\00:35:40.90
FAMILY, AND HE WAS STRUCK WITH
THIS DISEASE AND HE WAS SITTING
00:35:40.90\00:35:44.21
OUT THERE AND HIS WIFE
SAID 'CURSE GOD AND DIE!'
00:35:44.21\00:35:46.81
AND BEFORE HIS FRIENDS GOT THERE
IT SAYS HIS FRIENDS HEARD ABOUT
00:35:46.81\00:35:49.91
WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO HIM AND
THEY CAME AND THEY MET TOGETHER
00:35:49.91\00:35:53.25
AND THEY CAME TOGETHER.
AND SO, IN THAT INTERVAL, MAYBE
00:35:53.25\00:35:56.65
SOME OTHER PEOPLE IN TOWN -
AFTER HIS WIFE SAID 'CURSE GOD
00:35:56.65\00:35:59.59
AND DIE' THEY MY HAVE
COME BY AND SAID, 'YOU'RE
00:35:59.59\00:36:02.82
CURSED OF GOD!' AND SPIT ON HIM.
WHAT A TERRIBLE THING TO HAVE.
00:36:02.82\00:36:06.66
CAN YOU THINK OF ANYONE
ELSE WHO HAD THAT EXPERIENCE?
00:36:06.66\00:36:09.33
JESUS DID. NOW SOMEONE'S GOING
TO READ FOR US MATTHEW 26:67.
00:36:09.33\00:36:15.57
AND I DON'T THINK I GAVE THE
CAMERA A CHANCE TO GET AHOLD OF
00:36:15.57\00:36:20.48
YOU. GO AHEAD, I
THINK THEY'RE READY.
00:36:20.48\00:36:22.44
>>"THEN THEY SPAT IN HIS FACE
AND BEAT HIM; AND OTHERS STRUCK
00:36:22.44\00:36:26.41
HIM WITH THE PALMS OF
THEIR HANDS," - MATTHEW 26:67.
00:36:26.41\00:36:31.42
>>YEAH, IT SAYS
THEY SPIT ON HIM.
00:36:31.42\00:36:34.79
NOT ONLY DOES IT SAY IT THERE
IN MATTHEW, BUT IF YOU READ IN
00:36:34.79\00:36:38.09
ISAIAH CHAPTER 53, IT
TALKS ABOUT THAT AS WELL.
00:36:38.09\00:36:42.26
AND, NOT ONLY THAT, HE WAS
STRUCK - YOU JUST READ THAT - IT
00:36:42.26\00:36:46.43
SAYS THEY HIT HIM WITH
THE PALMS OF THEIR HANDS.
00:36:46.43\00:36:48.84
WHAT ABOUT JOB? WAS
JOB STRUCK? WE HEARD ABOUT
00:36:48.84\00:36:51.81
JOB BEING SPIT ON. READ
IN JOB 16:10, "THEY GAPE AT
00:36:51.81\00:36:55.71
ME WITH THEIR MOUTH" - NOW SOME
OF YOU MAY WANT THESE NOTES.
00:36:55.71\00:36:59.75
USUALLY, ABOUT A WEEK AFTER THE
PROGRAM YOU MIGHT SAY, 'I WANT
00:36:59.75\00:37:03.45
THOSE REFERENCES - IT'D BE
A GOOD STUDY FOR A CLASS.' WE
00:37:03.45\00:37:06.79
UPLOAD THESE TO THE GRANITE BAY
WEBSITE, SO - AND I THINK, ALSO,
00:37:06.79\00:37:10.43
AMAZING FACTS' WEBSITE,
SO THEY'LL BE AVAILABLE.
00:37:10.43\00:37:12.79
"THEY GAPE AT ME" - JOB 16:10
- "WITH THEIR MOUTH, THEY STRIKE
00:37:12.79\00:37:16.10
ME REPROACHFULLY ON THE CHEEK,"
- THEY SPIT ON JESUS; THEY SPIT
00:37:16.10\00:37:21.57
ON JOB. STRUCK
JESUS; STRUCK JOB.
00:37:21.57\00:37:24.51
THE SUFFERINGS OF
JOB ARE A TYPE OF CHRIST.
00:37:24.51\00:37:26.88
HERE YOU'VE GOT THIS HOLY MAN -
THIS GREAT MAN, WHO THE DEVIL IS
00:37:26.88\00:37:30.71
TRYING TO BRING DOWN - THAT GOD
IS LOOKING DOWN ON, AND YOU SEE
00:37:30.71\00:37:34.88
THE WHOLE GREAT CONTROVERSY
BEING ACTED OUT HERE.
00:37:34.88\00:37:39.49
FURTHERMORE, IT'S - AND THAT'S
LUKE 22:64 - THEY BLINDFOLDED
00:37:39.49\00:37:43.32
HIM AND THEY
STRUCK HIM ON THE FACE.
00:37:43.32\00:37:45.89
THAT'S WHEN THEY SAID,
'PROPHESY, WHO IS IT THAT STRUCK
00:37:45.89\00:37:48.56
YOU?' CAN YOU
IMAGINE HOW HORRIFIC IT
00:37:48.56\00:37:51.10
WILL BE IN THE JUDGMENT FOR
ONE OF THOSE ROMAN SOLDIERS THAT
00:37:51.10\00:37:54.90
ACTUALLY DID THAT TO
JESUS? 'OH, YOU'RE A PROPHET?
00:37:54.90\00:37:57.71
PROPHESY.' YOU SEE THE KING
OF KINGS COMING AND REALIZE 'I
00:37:57.71\00:38:03.14
STRUCK HIM WHEN HE WAS A MAN.'
MARK 15 - I'M SORRY, JOB 30,
00:38:03.14\00:38:10.69
VERSE 20, "I CRY OUT TO YOU, BUT
YOU DO NOT ANSWER ME;" - CAN YOU
00:38:10.69\00:38:14.89
THINK OF A TIME WHEN JESUS WAS
ON THE CROSS AND IT SEEMS LIKE
00:38:14.89\00:38:17.49
HE CRIED OUT AND
THERE WAS NO ANSWER?
00:38:17.49\00:38:21.23
MARK 15:34, "...MY GOD, MY
GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?"
00:38:21.23\00:38:26.70
WHEN JESUS WAS ON THE
CROSS. NOW, DID JESUS SAY THAT
00:38:26.70\00:38:29.57
STATEMENT BECAUSE HE LOST FAITH?
'MY GOD, MY GOD' - WHO KNOWS
00:38:29.57\00:38:33.34
WHAT VERSE THAT COMES
FROM? CHRIST WAS QUOTING THE
00:38:33.34\00:38:36.58
OLD TESTAMENT,
RIGHT? >>PSALM 22.
00:38:36.58\00:38:38.61
>>PSALM 22 - GO THERE REAL QUICK
- GO TO PSALM 22 - I WANT TO
00:38:38.61\00:38:41.42
SHOW YOU SOMETHING, BECAUSE I'VE
MET PEOPLE BEFORE THAT THOUGHT,
00:38:41.42\00:38:44.32
'WELL, YOU KNOW, JESUS GOT
DISCOURAGED AND HE GAVE UP AND
00:38:44.32\00:38:46.92
CRIED OUT IN HIS DESPAIR.' I
DON'T THINK JESUS WAS CRYING OUT
00:38:46.92\00:38:51.53
IN DESPAIR. I DON'T
THINK JESUS GOT DISCOURAGED.
00:38:51.53\00:38:55.30
ONE OF THE PROPHECIES SAID, 'HE
WILL NOT BE DISCOURAGED.' WHEN
00:38:55.30\00:38:59.47
JESUS - IT WAS TRADITIONAL FOR
THE HIGH PRIEST TO QUOTE FROM
00:38:59.47\00:39:06.11
THE PSALMS DURING THE PASSOVER
AND WHEN JESUS READ THE FIRST
00:39:06.11\00:39:10.98
VERSE IN THIS PSALM, HE, AS OUR
SACRIFICE AND OUR HIGH PRIEST,
00:39:10.98\00:39:14.32
WAS QUOTING FROM THIS
PSALM. WHY DID JESUS QUOTE
00:39:14.32\00:39:16.69
FROM THIS PSALM? LOOK
AT THE FIRST VERSE - PSALM
00:39:16.69\00:39:18.99
22:1, "MY GOD, MY GOD,
WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?
00:39:18.99\00:39:23.29
WHY ARE YOU SO FAR FROM HELPING
ME, AND FROM THE WORDS OF MY
00:39:23.29\00:39:26.76
GROANING? O MY GOD,
I CRY IN THE DAYTIME,
00:39:26.76\00:39:29.83
BUT YOU DO NOT HEAR;
AND IN THE NIGHT SEASON, AND
00:39:29.83\00:39:32.00
AM NOT SILENT." THERE
WAS A DAY AND A NIGHT WHEN
00:39:32.00\00:39:34.64
CHRIST WAS SUFFERING FOR
OUR SINS THERE, CRYING OUT.
00:39:34.64\00:39:37.81
WHY DID GOD -
WHY WAS GOD SILENT?
00:39:37.81\00:39:42.68
AFTER JESUS PRAYED THE THIRD
TIME, 'NOT MY WILL, BUT THY WILL
00:39:42.68\00:39:45.05
BE DONE', THE LORD WITHDREW FROM
CHRIST AS HE DOES FROM THE LOST.
00:39:45.05\00:39:49.62
HE WAS SEPARATED FROM JESUS
AS SIN SEPARATES US FROM GOD.
00:39:49.62\00:39:53.29
IT'S A RHETORICAL QUESTION.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN BY
00:39:53.29\00:39:56.46
RHETORICAL QUESTION? IT
MEANS A QUESTION WHERE YOU
00:39:56.46\00:39:59.73
KNOW THE ANSWER BUT YOU'RE
JUST GETTING SOMEONE TO THINK.
00:39:59.73\00:40:02.86
SO WHEN HE SAYS, 'MY GOD, MY
GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?'
00:40:02.86\00:40:05.50
HE'S ASKING US
WHY WAS HE FORSAKEN.
00:40:05.50\00:40:07.74
YOU READ ON IN THAT PSALM AND
YOU LOOK HERE, IT SAYS - GO TO
00:40:07.74\00:40:12.27
VERSE 12, FOR INSTANCE, "MANY
BULLS HAVE SURROUNDED ME; STRONG
00:40:12.27\00:40:16.34
BULLS OF BASHAN
HAVE ENCIRCLED ME.
00:40:16.34\00:40:18.25
THEY GAPE AT ME" - IT'S TALKING
ABOUT HIS EXPERIENCE ON THE
00:40:18.25\00:40:20.25
CROSS - "THEY GAPE AT ME WITH
THEIR MOUTHS," - VERSE 14 - "I
00:40:20.25\00:40:24.02
AM POURED OUT LIKE WATER, AND
ALL MY BONES ARE OUT OF JOINT;"
00:40:24.02\00:40:27.19
- HE WAS STRETCHED ON THE CROSS
- "MY HEART IS LIKE WAX; IT HAS
00:40:27.19\00:40:31.03
MELTED WITHIN ME. MY
STRENGTH IS DRIED UP LIKE A
00:40:31.03\00:40:33.09
POTSHERD, AND MY TONGUE" - DID
JOB SIT IN THE BROKEN POTTERY?
00:40:33.09\00:40:39.87
- "MY TONGUE CLINGS TO MY JAWS;"
- JOB REFERS TO THAT TOO - "YOU
00:40:39.87\00:40:43.97
HAVE BROUGHT ME TO
THE DUST [OF DEATH]."
00:40:43.97\00:40:45.61
HE PUT DUST ON HIS HEAD
WHEN HE WAS IN THE DUMP.
00:40:45.61\00:40:49.91
"FOR DOGS HAVE SURROUNDED ME;
THE CONGREGATION OF THE WICKED
00:40:49.91\00:40:53.38
HAS ENCLOSED ME. THEY PIERCED MY
00:40:53.38\00:40:56.08
HANDS AND MY FEET." -
NOW, IS THAT PRETTY CLEAR?
00:40:56.08\00:41:00.06
- "I CAN COUNT ALL MY BONES" -
NONE OF HIS BONES WERE BROKEN -
00:41:00.06\00:41:03.26
"THEY [LOOK AND] STARE AT ME.
THEY DIVIDE MY GARMENTS AMONG
00:41:03.26\00:41:05.63
THEM," - SO, NOW
THIS IS SPECULATION.
00:41:05.63\00:41:08.16
I DON'T KNOW - JESUS IS HANGING
ON THE CROSS AND THERE'S A THIEF
00:41:08.16\00:41:11.90
ON THE RIGHT AND THE LEFT.
AND THE THIEF ON THE RIGHT -
00:41:11.90\00:41:14.54
I'M SPECULATING
AGAIN - I DON'T KNOW.
00:41:14.54\00:41:16.14
ONE WAS A GOOD - ONE'S A SAVED
THIEF, ONE'S A LOST THIEF - I
00:41:16.14\00:41:18.91
DON'T KNOW WHERE THE SAVED THIEF
WAS, BUT SINCE THE SHEEP ARE ON
00:41:18.91\00:41:21.24
THE RIGHT HAND AND THE GOATS ARE
ON THE LEFT, I'M PUTTING HIM ON
00:41:21.24\00:41:22.94
THE RIGHT HAND. AND
SINCE YOU CAN'T PROVE
00:41:22.94\00:41:25.45
ME WRONG, I CAN DO THAT.
SO, THEN THE THIEF ON THE RIGHT,
00:41:25.45\00:41:30.42
HE HEARS JESUS SAY, 'MY GOD, MY
GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?'
00:41:30.42\00:41:34.22
AND HE LOOKS AT THE SIGN ABOVE
THE HEAD OF CHRIST AND IT SAID,
00:41:34.22\00:41:37.89
'THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS'
AND THIS IS A JEWISH BOY WHO
00:41:37.89\00:41:40.96
TURNED INTO A THIEF - HE'S THE
PRODIGAL - AND HE REMEMBERS THE
00:41:40.96\00:41:44.40
REST OF THAT PSALM -
THE REST OF PSALM 22 -
00:41:44.40\00:41:47.84
'THEY PIERCED MY
HANDS AND MY FEET.
00:41:47.84\00:41:49.37
THEY GAMBLE FOR MY CLOTHING' -
AND HE JUST SEES THEM PIERCE HIS
00:41:49.37\00:41:52.61
HANDS AND HIS FEET AND
GAMBLE FOR HIS CLOTHING.
00:41:52.61\00:41:54.48
I THINK THE HOLY SPIRIT
QUICKENED HIS MIND BECAUSE, AT
00:41:54.48\00:41:56.78
THE BEGINNING OF THE DAY WHEN
THEY WERE BOTH CRUCIFIED, IT
00:41:56.78\00:41:59.68
SAYS BOTH THE THIEVES
STARTED OUT MOCKING HIM.
00:41:59.68\00:42:03.22
BUT THEY, YOU KNOW, JESUS HUNG
ON THE CROSS FOR SIX HOURS -
00:42:03.22\00:42:05.62
ALIVE - ONE HOUR DEAD
- A TOTAL OF SEVEN HOURS.
00:42:05.62\00:42:10.03
AND DURING THAT SIX HOURS
- A LONG TIME - THOSE THINGS
00:42:10.03\00:42:13.60
HAPPENED - HIS MIND WAS
QUICKENED AND HE REALIZED, BY
00:42:13.60\00:42:17.63
JESUS QUOTING PSALM 22, THIS
WAS THE MESSIAH. AND HE SAID,
00:42:17.63\00:42:21.70
'LORD, REMEMBER ME WHEN
YOU COME INTO YOUR KINGDOM.'
00:42:21.70\00:42:24.24
BUT JESUS REPEATED WHAT I JUST
READ THERE IN PSALM 22 - SOME OF
00:42:24.24\00:42:27.28
THE SAME THINGS YOU FIND IN THE
BOOK OF JOB - THE POTSHERD, THE
00:42:27.28\00:42:30.31
DUST, AND SO FORTH - THE PEOPLE
STARING. ALL RIGHT, BACK TO OUR
00:42:30.31\00:42:36.05
STUDY OF JOB AND JESUS
HERE. WHAT ABOUT JOB AND JESUS?
00:42:36.05\00:42:42.32
WERE THEIR
CLOTHING STRIPPED FROM THEM?
00:42:42.32\00:42:45.79
JOB SAYS, "NAKED I CAME FROM
MY MOTHER'S WOMB," - JOB 1:21 -
00:42:45.79\00:42:49.53
"AND NAKED SHALL I RETURN
THITHER: THE LORD GAVE, AND THE
00:42:49.53\00:42:52.97
LORD HATH TAKEN AWAY; BLESSED
BE THE NAME OF THE LORD."
00:42:52.97\00:42:56.77
AND YOU READ IN MATTHEW
27:28 THEY STRIPPED HIM.
00:42:56.77\00:43:00.94
WAS THERE MOCKING AND
TAUNTING OF JESUS AND JOB?
00:43:00.94\00:43:06.28
LOOK IN JOB 16:20, "MY FRIENDS
SCORN ME: BUT MINE EYE POURETH
00:43:06.28\00:43:11.09
OUT TEARS UNTO GOD." AND
READ IN JOB 30, VERSE 9, "I
00:43:11.09\00:43:15.22
AM THEIR TAUNTING SONG;
YES, I AM THEIR BYWORD."
00:43:15.22\00:43:19.43
AND WE ALREADY READ PSALM 22,
BUT I DIDN'T READ 7 AND 8, "ALL
00:43:19.43\00:43:24.33
THOSE WHO SEE ME RIDICULE
ME; THEY SHOOT OUT THE LIP, THEY
00:43:24.33\00:43:27.47
SHAKE THE HEAD, SAYING, 'HE
TRUSTED IN THE LORD, LET HIM
00:43:27.47\00:43:30.64
RESCUE HIM; LET HIM DELIVER
HIM, SINCE HE DELIGHTS IN HIM!"
00:43:30.64\00:43:34.78
- ISN'T THAT WHAT WAS HAPPENING
AROUND THE CROSS THAT DAY?
00:43:34.78\00:43:38.08
WERE THEY MOCKING JESUS SAYING,
'IF YOU'RE THE SON OF GOD COME
00:43:38.08\00:43:40.42
DOWN'? JOB SAID,
IN JOB 19:9, "HE HAS
00:43:40.42\00:43:46.35
STRIPPED ME OF MY GLORY, AND
TAKEN THE CROWN FROM MY HEAD."
00:43:46.35\00:43:49.32
AND YOU CAN READ - AND, OF
COURSE, ON THE CROSS THEY SHOT
00:43:49.32\00:43:51.93
OUT THE LIP, THEY MOCKED HIM -
THEY SAID, 'IF YOU'RE THE SON OF
00:43:51.93\00:43:54.30
GOD, COME DOWN AND THEN WE'LL
BELIEVE.' AND 'YOU WHO DESTROY
00:43:54.30\00:43:58.50
THE TEMPLE AND REBUILD IT IN
THREE DAYS' - A LOT OF MOCKING
00:43:58.50\00:44:00.90
HAPPENING DURING THOSE
HOURS HE WAS ON THE CROSS.
00:44:00.90\00:44:04.64
AND THEN JOB 10:21, "BEFORE I GO
TO THE PLACE FROM WHICH I SHALL
00:44:04.64\00:44:08.98
NOT RETURN, TO THE LAND
OF DARKNESS AND THE SHADOW OF
00:44:08.98\00:44:11.58
DEATH, A LAND AS DARK AS
DARKNESS ITSELF, AS THE SHADOW
00:44:11.58\00:44:15.45
OF DEATH, WITHOUT ANY ORDER,
WHERE EVEN THE LIGHT IS LIKE
00:44:15.45\00:44:18.69
DARKNESS." WAS
JOB FACING THE SECOND
00:44:18.69\00:44:21.39
DEATH DURING HIS SUFFERINGS?
THAT LAND OF DARKNESS?
00:44:21.39\00:44:26.43
AND DID JESUS FACE
THE SECOND DEATH? HE DID.
00:44:26.43\00:44:31.07
THEN JOB MAKES A STATEMENT
- IN THE MIDST OF ALL OF HIS
00:44:31.07\00:44:34.47
SUFFERINGS HE MAKES THIS
AMAZING STATEMENT OF TRIUMPH.
00:44:34.47\00:44:39.67
HE SAYS, "THOUGH HE SLAY
ME, YET WILL I TRUST HIM."
00:44:39.67\00:44:43.08
WAS THERE A TRIUMPHANT STATEMENT
OF JESUS ON THE CROSS BEFORE HE
00:44:43.08\00:44:47.25
DIED? YEAH.
00:44:47.25\00:44:49.42
HE SAID, 'FATHER, INTO YOUR
HANDS I COMMIT MY SPIRIT.' - I
00:44:49.42\00:44:53.25
TRUST MY SPIRIT - AND THEN HE
CRIED OUT AND GAVE UP THE GHOST.
00:44:53.25\00:44:59.19
A FEW MORE THINGS AND THEN
I'LL MOVE ON WITH THE LESSON.
00:44:59.19\00:45:02.10
I KNOW I'VE COVERED A LOT OF
THIS, BUT ISN'T THIS EDIFYING?
00:45:02.10\00:45:04.73
IT'S TALKING
ABOUT JOB'S REDEEMER.
00:45:04.73\00:45:06.33
YOU FIND, ALL THROUGH THE BOOK
OF JOB, HE'S A TYPE OF CHRIST.
00:45:06.33\00:45:10.74
THIS IS WHY I BELIEVE THE
BIBLE'S A SUPERNATURAL BOOK.
00:45:10.74\00:45:13.01
YOU KNOW, IF YOU TALK TO - I'VE
GOT SOME MUSLIM FRIENDS AND THEY
00:45:13.01\00:45:18.15
SAY THE QURAN IS HOLY - 'MORE
HOLY THAN THE BIBLE - CAN'T
00:45:18.15\00:45:21.45
TRUST THE BIBLE - QURAN -
PERFECT' - AND YOU CAN TALK TO
00:45:21.45\00:45:25.22
BUDDHISTS AND HINDUISTS AND A
BAGAVAD GITA - AND EVERYBODY'S
00:45:25.22\00:45:28.22
GOT THEIR HOLY BOOK - NOT
EVERYBODY, BUT MANY RELIGIONS
00:45:28.22\00:45:30.86
HAVE THEIR HOLY BOOK. ONE
OF THE REASONS I BELIEVE THE
00:45:30.86\00:45:33.96
BIBLE IS SUCH A SUPERNATURAL
BOOK IS, WHEN YOU READ THE OLD
00:45:33.96\00:45:37.77
TESTAMENT, YOU KNOW YOU'RE
READING THINGS THAT WERE WRITTEN
00:45:37.77\00:45:40.77
THOUSANDS OF YEARS BEFORE
CHRIST. WE KNOW FROM THE DEAD
00:45:40.77\00:45:43.20
SEA SCROLLS THAT DATE
BACK TO 150 - 200 B.C.
00:45:43.20\00:45:47.14
THAT THE OLD TESTAMENT WAS
WRITTEN BEFORE JESUS LIVED.
00:45:47.14\00:45:51.65
AND WHEN YOU READ THESE
PROPHECIES - YOU READ THE STORY
00:45:51.65\00:45:55.48
ABOUT JOSEPH BEING A TYPE
OF CHRIST - BETRAYED BY HIS
00:45:55.48\00:45:58.39
BROTHERS, SOLD FOR THE PRICE OF
A SLAVE, FORGIVING - HE'S A TYPE
00:45:58.39\00:46:02.52
OF CHRIST. MOSES
STRETCHING OUT HIS HAND ON
00:46:02.52\00:46:04.49
THE MOUNTAIN - SAMSON STRETCHING
OUT HIS ARMS AND DYING.
00:46:04.49\00:46:07.83
I MEAN, THERE ARE SO MANY TYPES
OF CHRIST IN THE BIBLE AND YOU
00:46:07.83\00:46:10.73
READ THEM AND YOU GO,
'THIS CAN'T BE A COINCIDENCE.
00:46:10.73\00:46:12.90
IT'S A SUPERNATURAL BOOK.' AND
JOB IS THE OLDEST BOOK AS FAR
00:46:12.90\00:46:17.37
AS, YOU KNOW, WHEN THE EVENTS
TRANSPIRED, PROBABLY THE FIRST
00:46:17.37\00:46:20.68
BOOK MOSES WROTE
THERE IN THE WILDERNESS.
00:46:20.68\00:46:24.08
AND YOU SEE ALL THE TYPES OF
CHRIST AND THE SUFFERING THERE.
00:46:24.08\00:46:26.18
JONAH - SLEEPING IN A BOAT
DURING A STORM - THEY WAKE HIM
00:46:26.18\00:46:29.75
UP AND SAY, 'AREN'T YOU
AFRAID WE'RE GOING TO PERISH?'
00:46:29.75\00:46:31.82
THAT'S A TYPE OF CHRIST.
AND JESUS SAID JONAH WOULD BE A
00:46:31.82\00:46:35.39
SIGN. AND SO YOU
SEE ALL THESE OLD
00:46:35.39\00:46:37.13
TESTAMENT TYPES OF JESUS AND I
- THERE'S HUNDREDS OF THEM FROM
00:46:37.13\00:46:40.26
GIDEON TO JEPTHA TO
RUTH AND JUST - ESTHER - JUST
00:46:40.26\00:46:44.13
TYPES OF CHRIST. YOU
COULD NOT MANUFACTURE THAT.
00:46:44.13\00:46:49.24
AND THEN YOU LOOK AT THE LIFE OF
JESUS AND ALL THE OLD TESTAMENT
00:46:49.24\00:46:52.71
IS LIKE A KALEIDOSCOPE
OF THE LIFE OF CHRIST.
00:46:52.71\00:46:56.44
DAVID - TYPE OF CHRIST. SO
JOB IS ONE OF THE GREAT ONES
00:46:56.44\00:47:00.52
IN THE BIBLE, THAT'S
WHY I'M GETTING SO EXCITED.
00:47:00.52\00:47:02.52
SORRY. ALRIGHT, WHERE WAS I?
00:47:02.52\00:47:05.65
OH, THEY WERE STRIPPED OF THEIR
CLOTHING, MOCKING AND TAUNTING -
00:47:05.65\00:47:07.86
OH, JOB AND JESUS ARE BOTH
MERCIFUL MEDIATOR - SOMEONE'S
00:47:07.86\00:47:11.36
GOING TO READ FOR ME 1 TIMOTHY
2:5 - JOHN, YOU'LL HAVE THAT?
00:47:11.36\00:47:16.30
LET ME READ WHAT IT SAYS IN JOB,
"NOW THEREFORE," - GOD TOLD JOB
00:47:16.30\00:47:20.07
- "TAKE FOR YOURSELVES SEVEN
BULLS AND SEVEN RAMS, GO TO MY
00:47:20.07\00:47:24.14
SERVANT JOB, AND OFFER UP FOR
YOURSELVES A BURNT OFFERING; AND
00:47:24.14\00:47:29.44
MY SERVANT JOB
SHALL PRAY FOR YOU."
00:47:29.44\00:47:31.31
- JOB SAYS THIS - OR GOD SAYS
THIS TO THE FRIENDS - "FOR I
00:47:31.31\00:47:34.45
WILL ACCEPT HIM, LEST I
DEAL WITH YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR
00:47:34.45\00:47:38.09
FOLLY;" - YOUR SINS.
00:47:38.09\00:47:39.65
IN OTHER WORDS, IF IT ISN'T FOR
THE INTERCESSION OF JOB, GOD IS
00:47:39.65\00:47:43.32
GOING TO PUNISH
THE FRIENDS OF JOB.
00:47:43.32\00:47:47.23
SO JOB IS A PRIEST WHO
INTERCEDES FOR THEM TO BE
00:47:47.23\00:47:50.43
FORGIVEN. DO YOU SEE THAT?
00:47:50.43\00:47:53.27
NOW GO AHEAD AND
READ FOR US 1 TIMOTHY 2:5.
00:47:53.27\00:47:58.37
>>1 TIMOTHY 2:5, "FOR THERE IS
ONE GOD AND ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN
00:47:58.37\00:48:03.24
GOD AND MANKIND,
THE MAN CHRIST JESUS."
00:48:03.24\00:48:07.12
>>YOU KNOW WHAT A MEDIATOR IS?
IF TWO PEOPLE CAN'T COME TO SOME
00:48:07.12\00:48:11.85
AGREEMENT, YOU KNOW,
YOU GET A GO-BETWEEN.
00:48:11.85\00:48:14.69
ON THE OLD COOK STOVES IN THE
KITCHEN - NOW THEY'RE A LITTLE
00:48:14.69\00:48:18.53
MORE COMPLEX AND THEY'RE
PROBABLY DIGITAL WITH A SCREEN
00:48:18.53\00:48:20.93
AND A GENIE, BUT IT USED TO BE
YOU HAD THREE SETTINGS ON YOUR
00:48:20.93\00:48:24.63
STOVE - YOU HAD THE GAS STOVE
- YOU HAD LOW, MEDIUM, AND HIGH.
00:48:24.63\00:48:30.61
BETWEEN THE LOW AND THE
HIGH THERE WAS THE MEDIUM.
00:48:30.61\00:48:34.91
AND HERE ON EARTH YOU'VE GOT THE
LOW, AND UP IN HEAVEN YOU'VE GOT
00:48:34.91\00:48:37.85
THE HIGH, AND WE NEED A MEDIUM.
WE NEED SOMEONE WHO'S A MEDIATOR
00:48:37.85\00:48:41.58
- WHO'S IN THE MIDDLE
- THAT'S WHAT THAT MEANS.
00:48:41.58\00:48:44.55
JESUS IS IN THE MIDDLE
TO RECONCILE US TO GOD.
00:48:44.55\00:48:49.06
THE CROSS IS A LADDER
THAT CONNECTS HEAVEN AND EARTH.
00:48:49.06\00:48:52.66
MOSES WENT UP THE MOUNTAIN
TO MEDIATE FOR THE PEOPLE.
00:48:52.66\00:48:56.33
HE KIND OF SAID, 'ALRIGHT,
LORD, I'M GOING TO GO HALFWAY TO
00:48:56.33\00:48:57.83
HEAVEN' - NOT THAT YOU GET
HALFWAY TO HEAVEN BY CLIMBING A
00:48:57.83\00:49:00.40
MOUNTAIN, BUT IT'S A SYMBOL
OF THAT - AND HE WOULD HEAR FROM
00:49:00.40\00:49:03.54
GOD. HE'D COME DOWN TO THE
00:49:03.54\00:49:04.67
PEOPLE - HE WAS A
MEDIATOR. JOB WAS A MEDIATOR.
00:49:04.67\00:49:07.41
NOT ONLY WAS JOB MEDIATING
AT THE END OF THE BOOK, FOR HIS
00:49:07.41\00:49:09.74
FRIENDS, BUT AT THE BEGINNING
OF THE BOOK WHEN HIS SONS WOULD
00:49:09.74\00:49:12.65
FEAST AND ALL OF THEM
WOULD INVITE THEIR SISTERS AND
00:49:12.65\00:49:14.98
BROTHERS ON THEIR RESPECTIVE
BIRTHDAYS, THEN JOB WOULD BE
00:49:14.98\00:49:18.19
AFRAID. HE'D CALL
THE FAMILY TOGETHER
00:49:18.19\00:49:19.85
AND HE WOULD THEN INTERCEDE.
HE'D SACRIFICE AND HE'D
00:49:19.85\00:49:22.02
MEDIATE FOR THE FAMILY.
SO JOB IS THE GREAT MEDIATOR
00:49:22.02\00:49:25.59
FROM THE BEGINNING
TO THE END OF THE BOOK.
00:49:25.59\00:49:27.56
HE'S A PRIEST. AND IS
JESUS OUR HIGH PRIEST?
00:49:27.56\00:49:31.13
SO YOU SEE THIS SIMILARITY
HERE ALL THROUGH THE STORY.
00:49:31.13\00:49:34.34
ALRIGHT, LET'S GO TO THAT NEXT
SECTION - THE DEATH OF CHRIST .
00:49:34.34\00:49:38.61
AND YOU READ HERE IN 1 JOHN 2:6,
"HE WHO SAYS HE ABIDES IN HIM
00:49:38.61\00:49:44.48
OUGHT HIMSELF ALSO TO
WALK JUST AS HE WALKED."
00:49:44.48\00:49:48.72
CHRIST GAVE US AN EXAMPLE ABOUT
HOW TO LIVE AND HE SEALED THAT,
00:49:48.72\00:49:54.02
OF COURSE, BY HIS DEATH.
YOU READ IN GALATIANS 4:19, "MY
00:49:54.02\00:49:58.26
LITTLE CHILDREN, FOR WHOM
I LABOR IN BIRTH AGAIN UNTIL
00:49:58.26\00:50:02.33
CHRIST IS FORMED IN YOU,"
- IT SAYS HE'S AN EXAMPLE.
00:50:02.33\00:50:05.93
GOD WANTS THE LIFE
OF JESUS REPRODUCED.
00:50:05.93\00:50:08.37
NOT ONLY ARE WE TO WALK AS HE
WALKED, BUT IT SAYS CHRIST MUST
00:50:08.37\00:50:11.97
BE FORMED IN YOU. GOD
WAS REFLECTED IN JOB; JESUS
00:50:11.97\00:50:19.28
REFLECTED GOD; WE
ARE TO REFLECT JESUS.
00:50:19.28\00:50:22.72
YOU'LL DO WELL IF YOU REFLECT
THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF JOB, TOO,
00:50:22.72\00:50:25.89
IN YOUR LIFE. THAT'S
WHY PAUL SAYS - I ALWAYS
00:50:25.89\00:50:29.16
USED TO WONDER ABOUT THAT.
YOU KNOW, AS A CHRISTIAN YOU
00:50:29.16\00:50:31.26
ALWAYS SAY, 'FOLLOW JESUS.' BUT
PAUL ACTUALLY SAID, 'IMITATE ME'
00:50:31.26\00:50:36.83
- 1 CORINTHIANS 11:1 -
THIS IS FUN BECAUSE IT'S
00:50:36.83\00:50:39.67
1 CORINTHIANS 11:1, RIGHT?
1 CORINTHIANS 11, VERSE 1,
00:50:39.67\00:50:46.01
"IMITATE ME, JUST AS
I ALSO IMITATE CHRIST."
00:50:46.01\00:50:48.81
SO DON'T FOLLOW ANY PASTOR OR
APOSTLE EXCEPT AS THEY IMITATE
00:50:48.81\00:50:53.01
CHRIST. IF I
ACCUSED YOU OF BEING AN
00:50:53.01\00:50:56.32
IMITATOR, WOULD YOU BE
COMPLIMENTED? IT DEPENDS ON WHO
00:50:56.32\00:51:00.69
YOU'RE IMITATING. IF
YOU'RE DOING YOUR BEST TO
00:51:00.69\00:51:04.56
IMITATE CHRIST,
THEN THAT'S A GOOD THING.
00:51:04.56\00:51:09.33
I KNOW THAT, MY MOM, SHE WAS,
YOU KNOW, AMONG OTHER THINGS SHE
00:51:09.33\00:51:13.27
WAS AN ACTRESS AND SHE USED TO
HAVE FUN - SHE HAD FRIENDS FROM
00:51:13.27\00:51:18.44
ALL OVER THE WORLD WITH
DIFFERENT ACCENTS AND WHENEVER
00:51:18.44\00:51:20.74
SHE'D GET ON THE PHONE WITH HER
DIFFERENT FRIENDS, SHE'D IMITATE
00:51:20.74\00:51:23.31
THEM. AND MY
BROTHER AND I ALWAYS
00:51:23.31\00:51:25.81
KNEW WHO SHE WAS TALKING
TO. ALL OF A SUDDEN SHE HAD AN
00:51:25.81\00:51:28.35
ENGLISH ACCENT AND WE SAID, 'OH,
SHE'S TALKING TO SO AND SO.'
00:51:28.35\00:51:31.12
AND THEN SHE'D HAVE A NEW YORK
ACCENT AND WE'D SAY, 'OH, SHE'S
00:51:31.12\00:51:34.22
TALKING TO SHIRLEY.' AND SHE'D
JUST - FOR HER OWN ENTERTAINMENT
00:51:34.22\00:51:38.29
- SHE'D JUST TRY TO TALK LIKE
THE PERSON SHE WAS TALKING TO.
00:51:38.29\00:51:41.46
AND WOULD IT BE THAT EVERY
CHRISTIAN WOULD SPEND ALL THEIR
00:51:41.46\00:51:45.93
TIME STUDYING THE LIFE OF CHRIST
AND SAYING, 'I WANT TO BE LIKE
00:51:45.93\00:51:48.30
JESUS.' AND IMITATE HIM, AMEN?
MATTHEW CHAPTER 11, VERSE 29,
00:51:48.30\00:51:53.84
JESUS SAID, "TAKE MY YOKE UPON
YOU AND LEARN FROM ME," - WE'RE
00:51:53.84\00:51:58.18
TO DO EVERYTHING WE
CAN TO EMULATE THE LIFE OF
00:51:58.18\00:52:01.25
CHRIST - TO STUDY THAT.
OH, LET ME FINISH THAT VERSE -
00:52:01.25\00:52:06.59
"FOR I AM GENTLE AND LOWLY
IN HEART, AND YOU WILL FIND
00:52:06.59\00:52:08.59
REST FOR YOUR SOULS." YOU
KNOW, THAT'S THE ONLY PLACE
00:52:08.59\00:52:15.03
WE'RE REALLY
GOING TO FIND PEACE.
00:52:15.03\00:52:16.20
EVERYBODY IMITATES SOMEBODY,
WHETHER YOU WANT TO OR NOT.
00:52:16.20\00:52:20.67
YOU MIGHT THINK, 'I'M MY
OWN PERSON.' NO, YOU'RE NOT.
00:52:20.67\00:52:22.97
WHY DO YOU SPEAK
THE LANGUAGE YOU SPEAK?
00:52:22.97\00:52:26.07
BECAUSE YOU IMITATED THE PEOPLE
SPEAKING THAT LANGUAGE AROUND
00:52:26.07\00:52:28.54
YOU. WHY DO YOU
EAT THE FOOD YOU EAT?
00:52:28.54\00:52:31.85
BECAUSE SOMEONE FED YOU
THAT FOOD AND YOU COPIED THEM.
00:52:31.85\00:52:33.95
ALMOST EVERYBODY IS THE
SUM TOTAL OF PEOPLE THAT WE'VE
00:52:33.95\00:52:40.56
LOOKED AT, WHETHER IT'S
YOUR MOTHER OR FATHER, OVER THE
00:52:40.56\00:52:43.56
COURSE OF YOUR LIFE. AND
SOME OF YOU THOUGHT, 'I'M
00:52:43.56\00:52:46.26
NEVER GOING TO BE LIKE MY MOTHER
AND FATHER.' AND THEN YOU HEAR
00:52:46.26\00:52:49.66
YOURSELF - HOW MANY OF YOU - AND
THEN YOU HEAR YOURSELF SAYING
00:52:49.66\00:52:52.60
THE VERY SAME THINGS YOUR
MOTHER AND FATHER SAID, IN
00:52:52.60\00:52:54.87
SPITE OF
YOURSELF? ISN'T THAT RIGHT?
00:52:54.87\00:52:58.31
SO WE ALL IMITATE - KIDS
START DRESSING IN THESE BIZARRE
00:52:58.31\00:53:03.91
FASHIONS AND YOU THINK, 'WHERE
IN THE WORLD DO THEY COME UP
00:53:03.91\00:53:07.12
WITH THAT?' SURE
ENOUGH, THERE'S A RECORD
00:53:07.12\00:53:09.02
ALBUM, THERE'S SOME MUSIC VIDEO,
THERE'S SOME HERO IN HOLLYWOOD
00:53:09.02\00:53:12.95
THEY SAW DO IT AND
THEY START TO DO IT.
00:53:12.95\00:53:16.36
NO ONE WOULD EVER WAKE UP IN THE
MORNING AND SAY, 'I'M GOING TO
00:53:16.36\00:53:19.26
HAVE A PURPLE MOHAWK.'
(LAUGHTER) OH, MAYBE SOMEBODY -
00:53:19.26\00:53:23.10
I GUESS SOMEONE IN HOLLYWOOD DID
AND THAT'S WHERE EVERYONE GOT
00:53:23.10\00:53:25.17
THE IDEA. SO IMITATE CHRIST.
NOW - AND THEN THERE'S A WHOLE
00:53:25.17\00:53:30.34
SECTION AND I DON'T KNOW IF TIME
- WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TIME TO
00:53:30.34\00:53:32.57
READ THAT WHOLE SECTION IN
ISAIAH 53, WHERE IT TALKS ABOUT
00:53:32.57\00:53:36.01
THE SUFFERINGS OF JESUS, AND IF
YOU READ THAT, YOU KNOW, WELL,
00:53:36.01\00:53:41.45
LET'S GO THERE REAL QUICK
AND WE'LL READ SOME OF IT.
00:53:41.45\00:53:44.89
IT'S THAT BEAUTIFUL PASSAGE
THAT DESCRIBES THE SUFFERINGS OF
00:53:44.89\00:53:48.56
JESUS AND YOU CAN'T LOOK AT THE
SUFFERINGS OF JOB AND NOT WONDER
00:53:48.56\00:53:53.13
ABOUT THAT. BY THE
WAY, HOW MANY OF YOU
00:53:53.13\00:53:54.46
REMEMBER WHEN PHILIP WAS
INSTRUCTED TO GO TO THE DESERT
00:53:54.46\00:53:58.90
OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE
- THE EVANGELIST PHILIP - AND
00:53:58.90\00:54:02.37
WHILE HE'S IN THE DESERT, HE
RUNS INTO AN ETHIOPIAN OFFICIAL
00:54:02.37\00:54:07.31
WHO HAS JUST COME FROM
WORSHIPING IN JERUSALEM?
00:54:07.31\00:54:10.41
HE'S ON HIS WAY BACK TO ETHIOPIA
AND HE'S EITHER PARKED OR RIDING
00:54:10.41\00:54:13.42
ALONG IN HIS CHARIOT AND HE'S
READING FROM THE BOOK OF ISAIAH
00:54:13.42\00:54:18.02
AND HE'S READING CHAPTER
53 AND HE'S READING ABOUT THE
00:54:18.02\00:54:20.99
SUFFERINGS AND HE'S WONDERING,
'WHO IS THIS SUFFERING?'
00:54:20.99\00:54:26.36
AND AT THAT VERY MOMENT
HE INVITES PHILIP UP INTO HIS
00:54:26.36\00:54:28.46
CHARIOT AND PHILIP SAID,
'YOU'RE READING ABOUT JESUS.'
00:54:28.46\00:54:32.77
AND YOU WOULD THINK
HE WAS TALKING ABOUT JOB.
00:54:32.77\00:54:36.54
AND YOU CAN READ, FOR INSTANCE,
IN ISAIAH CHAPTER 53, VERSE 4,
00:54:36.54\00:54:41.64
"SURELY HE HAS BORNE OUR GRIEFS
AND CARRIED OUR SORROWS, YET WE
00:54:41.64\00:54:44.78
ESTEEMED HIM STRICKEN, SMITTEN
BY GOD, AND AFFLICTED, BUT HE
00:54:44.78\00:54:49.38
WAS WOUNDED FOR OUR
TRANSGRESSIONS; HE WAS BRUISED
00:54:49.38\00:54:51.65
FOR OUR INIQUITY."
HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT THAT
00:54:51.65\00:54:53.59
JOB WAS WOUNDED FOR
YOU? JOB - MEANT TO SAY
00:54:53.59\00:54:56.19
'JOB' NOT 'JESUS'. ARE
YOU ENCOURAGED BY JOB'S
00:54:56.19\00:55:00.23
FORTITUDE UNDER
SUFFERING? >>YES.
00:55:00.23\00:55:02.96
>>ALL THINGS WORK
TOGETHER FOR GOOD.
00:55:02.96\00:55:04.33
JOB WAS ALLOWED TO BE AFFLICTED
AND GOD ACTUALLY HAD TO WITHDRAW
00:55:04.33\00:55:08.84
HIS PROTECTION SO JOB COULD
BE AFFLICTED THAT IT MIGHT, TO
00:55:08.84\00:55:11.71
LATER GENERATIONS, BE A SOURCE
OF ENCOURAGEMENT - AND ALSO TO
00:55:11.71\00:55:15.84
REBUKE THE DEVIL - "WOUNDED FOR
OUR TRANSGRESSIONS, BRUISED FOR
00:55:15.84\00:55:20.95
OUR INIQUITIES, THE CHASTISEMENT
OF OUR PEACE WAS UPON HIM.
00:55:20.95\00:55:24.39
BY HIS STRIPES WE ARE HEALED."
- OF COURSE, JESUS WAS WHIPPED
00:55:24.39\00:55:28.06
AND THAT'S WHAT THE STRIPES MEAN
- "ALL WE LIKE SHEEP HAVE GONE
00:55:28.06\00:55:31.33
ASTRAY, WE'VE TURNED EVERYONE
TO HIS OWN WAY AND THE LORD HAS
00:55:31.33\00:55:35.06
LAID ON HIM THE
INIQUITY OF US ALL."
00:55:35.06\00:55:38.37
AND WHEN THAT ETHIOPIAN
TREASURER READ THAT 'THE LORD
00:55:38.37\00:55:43.74
LAID ON HIM THE INIQUITY OF US
ALL' IT CAN'T BE MISUNDERSTOOD -
00:55:43.74\00:55:47.11
CHRIST WAS A SIN
BEARER. HE IS THE LAMB OF GOD.
00:55:47.11\00:55:50.95
ALRIGHT, AND THEN, ONE OF THE
LAST THINGS: SATAN UNMASKED -
00:55:50.95\00:55:54.05
JOHN 12:31 THROUGH 33, "NOW IS
THE JUDGMENT OF THIS WORLD; NOW
00:55:54.05\00:56:00.86
THE RULER OF THIS WORLD WILL BE
CAST OUT. AND I, IF I AM LIFTED
00:56:00.86\00:56:04.96
UP FROM THE EARTH, WILL
DRAW ALL PEOPLES TO MYSELF."
00:56:04.96\00:56:08.06
HE'S TALKING ABOUT THE RULER
OF THE WORLD BEING CAST OUT.
00:56:08.06\00:56:11.10
THERE'S THIS INTERESTING SECTION
IN THE END OF JOB, WHEN YOU'RE
00:56:11.10\00:56:15.67
READING THE BOOK OF JOB,
AND HE'S TALKING ABOUT THE
00:56:15.67\00:56:17.97
CHARACTERISTICS OF GOD AND
HE TALKS ABOUT THESE DIFFERENT
00:56:17.97\00:56:21.38
ANIMALS - AND WHAT'S THE LAST
ANIMAL THAT JOB TALKS ABOUT?
00:56:21.38\00:56:25.05
HE TALKS ABOUT THE MOUNTAIN GOAT
AND HE TALKS ABOUT THE OX AND HE
00:56:25.05\00:56:27.98
TALKS ABOUT THE DONKEY AND
HE TALKS ABOUT THE HAWK AND HE
00:56:27.98\00:56:30.62
TALKS ABOUT THE HORSE - WHO
REMEMBERS WHAT THE LAST ANIMAL
00:56:30.62\00:56:33.96
IS? IT'S CALLED
LEVIATHAN - VERSE - CHAPTER 41 -
00:56:33.96\00:56:39.16
"CAN YOU DRAW OUT LEVIATHAN?"
AND AFTER HE GETS DONE TALKING
00:56:39.16\00:56:43.33
ABOUT LEVIATHAN, THIS
SERPENT, THIS MONSTER, THEN GOD
00:56:43.33\00:56:49.44
APPEARS TO JOB. WHO
IS THE ONE WHO DEALS
00:56:49.44\00:56:52.77
WITH THE LEVIATHAN? >>JESUS.
00:56:52.77\00:56:56.08
>>CHRIST - THE - MICHAEL FIGHTS
WITH THE DRAGON AND SO HE'S
00:56:56.08\00:57:01.35
SAYING, 'LOOK JOB, YOU'RE
WONDERING WHAT'S GOING ON - WHY
00:57:01.35\00:57:03.89
YOU'RE SUFFERING LIKE
THIS. IT'S THE LEVIATHAN.
00:57:03.89\00:57:07.06
AND YOU CAN'T - YOU CAN'T
OVERCOME THE LEVIATHAN, BUT I
00:57:07.06\00:57:10.39
CAN.' AND SO, IT'S INTERESTING,
THIS LEVIATHAN, I BELIEVE,
00:57:10.39\00:57:14.93
BECOMES A TYPE OF THE DEVIL
AND HE'S THE ONE - A LOT OF TIME
00:57:14.93\00:57:18.77
GOD SPENDS TALKING
ABOUT THE LEVIATHAN.
00:57:18.77\00:57:20.60
WHO INSTIGATED THIS WHOLE
BATTLE IN THE BOOK OF JOB?
00:57:20.60\00:57:23.47
THE DEVIL DOES - THE DRAGON
INSTIGATES THE WHOLE THING.
00:57:23.47\00:57:26.91
AND THEN, FINALLY, HE
IS REBUKED IN THE END.
00:57:26.91\00:57:29.51
YOU KNOW, THE LORD APPEARS
AND THE LORD TALKS TO JOB.
00:57:29.51\00:57:31.71
THE DEVIL NEVER APPEARS
AGAIN IN THE BOOK OF JOB.
00:57:31.71\00:57:34.42
HE HAS TO WITHDRAW IN DEFEAT.
00:57:34.42\00:57:36.82
'RESIST THE DEVIL AND
HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU.
00:57:36.82\00:57:39.42
ANYWAY, WE CAN SEE THE REDEEMER
IN THE BOOK OF JOB, AMEN?
