00:05:50.81\00:05:53.38
GOING THROUGH OUR STUDY OF
GALATIANS, TODAY WE'RE ON LESSON
00:05:53.42\00:05:57.05
#5 THAT DEALS WITH OLD TESTAMENT
FAITH, AND OUR MEMORY VERSE IS
00:05:57.09\00:06:02.79
GALATIANS 3, VERSE 13 - THIS IS
THE ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION -
00:06:02.82\00:06:07.30
GALATIANS 3, VERSE 13 - IF
YOU WANT TO SAY THIS WITH ME, I
00:06:07.36\00:06:10.60
APPRECIATE IT. READY?
"CHRIST REDEEMED US FROM THE
00:06:10.63\00:06:15.07
CURSE OF THE LAW BY BECOMING
A CURSE FOR US - FOR IT IS
00:06:15.10\00:06:20.18
WRITTEN, 'CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO
IS HANGED ON A TREE.'" AND, OF
00:06:20.21\00:06:25.65
COURSE, IT SAYS TWO TIMES IN
THE BOOK OF ACTS THAT WHEN JESUS
00:06:25.68\00:06:28.68
WAS CRUCIFIED, IT
SAYS, 'ON THE TREE'.
00:06:28.72\00:06:31.79
WE ALWAYS USE THE TERM 'THE
CROSS' BUT THERE WAS VERY LITTLE
00:06:31.82\00:06:35.02
THAT SEPARATED THOSE ANCIENT
CROSSES FROM JUST A RUDIMENTARY
00:06:35.06\00:06:39.39
TREE THAT WAS CUT
INTO A COUPLE OF SECTIONS.
00:06:39.43\00:06:42.36
AND SO, THEY
BASICALLY SAID IT THAT WAY.
00:06:42.40\00:06:44.77
ANOTHER REASON THEY SAY
'CRUCIFIED ON' OR 'HANGED ON A
00:06:44.80\00:06:48.84
TREE' IS BECAUSE SOMETIMES THE
ROMANS WOULD CRUCIFY A PERSON ON
00:06:48.87\00:06:53.04
A TREE WITHOUT
EVEN UPROOTING THE TREE.
00:06:53.07\00:06:56.34
AND THEN, IF YOU READ IN
THE BOOK OF JUDGES, SOME OF THE
00:06:56.38\00:06:58.51
KINGS THAT THEY FOUGHT AGAINST
THEY KILLED BY HANGING ON A
00:06:58.55\00:07:02.22
TREE. THAT'S WHY
IT'S QUOTING THAT
00:07:02.25\00:07:04.65
WHEN IT SAYS 'CURSED IS EVERYONE
THAT IS HANGED UPON A TREE'.
00:07:04.69\00:07:08.76
JESUS DYING ON A CROSS
TOOK THAT CURSE FOR US.
00:07:08.79\00:07:12.19
WELL, YOU KNOW, OUR ASSIGNMENT
TODAY - LET ME TELL YOU WHAT WE
00:07:12.23\00:07:15.20
WANT TO DO IS WE, TODAY,
HAVE THE ASSIGNMENT OF READING
00:07:15.23\00:07:18.87
GALATIANS CHAPTER 3, VERSES 1
THROUGH 14 - THAT'S THE PASSAGE
00:07:18.90\00:07:22.74
WE WANT TO STUDY. SO I
THOUGHT, IT'S NOT THAT BIG.
00:07:22.77\00:07:25.54
WHY DON'T WE JUST READ
THROUGH IT THEN LET'S BACK UP.
00:07:25.57\00:07:27.88
GET IT ALL IN CONTEXT, THEN
WE'LL BACK UP AND WE'LL STUDY IT
00:07:27.91\00:07:31.15
TOGETHER. SO GO
WITH ME IN YOUR BIBLES TO
00:07:31.18\00:07:33.31
GALATIANS CHAPTER 3 AND I'M JUST
GOING TO READ VERSES 1 THROUGH
00:07:33.35\00:07:36.75
14 AND IF YOU FAST AND PRAY, I
WILL TRY TO DO IT WITHOUT MAKING
00:07:36.79\00:07:40.19
A COMMENT THE FIRST TIME AROUND.
IT'S GOING TO BE HARD THOUGH.
00:07:40.22\00:07:44.86
"O FOOLISH GALATIANS! WHO
HAS BEWITCHED YOU THAT YOU
00:07:44.89\00:07:49.00
SHOULD NOT OBEY THE TRUTH,
BEFORE WHOSE EYES JESUS CHRIST
00:07:49.03\00:07:52.47
WAS CLEARLY PORTRAYED
AMONG YOU AS CRUCIFIED?
00:07:52.50\00:07:55.64
THIS ONLY I WANT TO LEARN FROM
YOU: DID YOU RECEIVE THE SPIRIT
00:07:55.67\00:07:59.47
BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW,
OR BY THE HEARING OF FAITH?
00:07:59.51\00:08:02.78
ARE YOU SO FOOLISH?
HAVING BEGUN IN THE SPIRIT, ARE
00:08:02.81\00:08:06.25
YOU NOW BEING MADE
PERFECT BY THE FLESH?
00:08:06.28\00:08:09.22
HAVE YOU SUFFERED SO MANY THINGS
IN VAIN-IF INDEED IT WAS IN
00:08:09.25\00:08:12.75
VAIN? THEREFORE
HE WHO SUPPLIES THE
00:08:12.79\00:08:15.99
SPIRIT TO YOU AND WORKS MIRACLES
AMONG YOU, DOES HE DO IT BY THE
00:08:16.02\00:08:20.03
WORKS OF THE LAW, OR
BY THE HEARING OF FAITH?
00:08:20.06\00:08:23.23
- JUST AS ABRAHAM "BELIEVED GOD,
AND IT WAS ACCOUNTED TO HIM FOR
00:08:23.26\00:08:26.74
RIGHTEOUSNESS."
THEREFORE KNOW THAT ONLY THOSE
00:08:26.77\00:08:31.01
WHO ARE OF FAITH
ARE SONS OF ABRAHAM.
00:08:31.04\00:08:34.48
AND THE SCRIPTURE, FORESEEING
THAT GOD WOULD JUSTIFY THE
00:08:34.51\00:08:37.55
GENTILES BY FAITH, PREACHED THE
GOSPEL TO ABRAHAM BEFOREHAND,
00:08:37.58\00:08:41.32
SAYING, "IN YOU ALL THE
NATIONS SHALL BE BLESSED."
00:08:41.35\00:08:46.15
SO THEN THOSE WHO ARE OF
FAITH ARE BLESSED WITH BELIEVING
00:08:46.19\00:08:48.86
ABRAHAM. FOR AS
MANY AS ARE OF THE WORKS
00:08:48.89\00:08:52.23
OF THE LAW ARE UNDER THE CURSE;
FOR IT IS WRITTEN, "CURSED IS
00:08:52.26\00:08:55.66
EVERYONE WHO DOES NOT CONTINUE
IN ALL THINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN
00:08:55.70\00:08:58.73
IN THE BOOK OF THE LAW, TO
DO THEM." BUT THAT NO ONE IS
00:08:58.77\00:09:02.47
JUSTIFIED BY THE LAW IN THE
SIGHT OF GOD IS EVIDENT, FOR
00:09:02.50\00:09:05.74
"THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH."
YET THE LAW IS NOT OF FAITH, BUT
00:09:05.77\00:09:11.05
"THE MAN WHO DOES
THEM SHALL LIVE BY THEM."
00:09:11.08\00:09:14.02
CHRIST HAS REDEEMED US FROM THE
CURSE OF THE LAW, HAVING BECOME
00:09:14.05\00:09:17.75
A CURSE FOR US (FOR IT IS
WRITTEN, "CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO
00:09:17.79\00:09:21.42
HANGS ON A TREE"), THAT THE
BLESSING OF ABRAHAM MIGHT COME
00:09:21.46\00:09:25.49
UPON THE GENTILES IN CHRIST
JESUS, THAT WE MIGHT RECEIVE THE
00:09:25.53\00:09:29.50
PROMISE OF THE
SPIRIT THROUGH FAITH."
00:09:29.53\00:09:32.33
ALRIGHT, THAT'S OUR
PASSAGE. NOW I CAN BREATH.
00:09:32.37\00:09:37.44
LET ME BACK UP AND JUST REVIEW,
BECAUSE IF WE JUST TAKE A - JUST
00:09:37.47\00:09:40.61
DIVE IN HERE - THERE ARE ALWAYS
PEOPLE WHO ARE, MAYBE, HERE OR
00:09:40.64\00:09:43.18
WHO ARE STUDYING OUT THERE WITH
US THAT DIDN'T GET, SORT OF, THE
00:09:43.21\00:09:45.98
PREAMBLE TO WHAT'S HAPPENING
HERE IN GALATIANS, YOU NEED TO
00:09:46.01\00:09:49.15
KNOW THE BACKGROUND.
GALATIA THERE - ASIA MINOR -
00:09:49.18\00:09:52.92
NAMED AFTER THE GAULS -
THEY SPOKE A GAUL-LIKE LANGUAGE
00:09:52.95\00:09:58.36
AND ALSO SPOKE GREEK.
THEY HAD BEEN SUBDUED BY THE
00:09:58.39\00:10:02.30
ROMANS BEFORE THE TIME OF
CHRIST, BUT THEY SORT OF HAD
00:10:02.33\00:10:04.77
THEIR OWN PROVINCE
- THEY WERE GENTILES.
00:10:04.80\00:10:08.57
THEY WORSHIPED PAGAN
GODS. THEY HAD A LOT OF DEBASING
00:10:08.60\00:10:11.24
THINGS THEY DID
IN THEIR WORSHIP.
00:10:11.27\00:10:13.41
PAUL WENT UP AND
PREACHED TO THEM SALVATION.
00:10:13.44\00:10:16.48
THEY ACCEPTED IT BASED ON, YOU
KNOW, WHAT THE GENTILES NEEDED
00:10:16.51\00:10:21.45
TO KNOW. HE DID NOT
TALK ABOUT, 'NOW YOU
00:10:21.48\00:10:23.79
NEED TO BE CIRCUMCISED' AND
'YOU NEED TO KEEP THE CEREMONIAL
00:10:23.82\00:10:26.52
FEAST DAYS' AND HE DID
NOT, YOU KNOW, TALK ABOUT 'YOU
00:10:26.55\00:10:29.72
HAVE TO SACRIFICE LAMBS'.
HE TALKED ABOUT THE BASICS THAT
00:10:29.76\00:10:33.50
A GENTILE NEEDS TO
KNOW TO ACCEPT THE GOSPEL.
00:10:33.53\00:10:36.67
THAT HAD BEEN DEBATED AND
CLARIFIED IN ACTS CHAPTER 15.
00:10:36.70\00:10:41.94
AFTER - AND THE CHURCH GREW -
IT TOOK OFF - HUNDREDS BELIEVED.
00:10:41.97\00:10:45.94
BUT THEN, AFTER PAUL LEAVES,
SOME DEVOUT - MAYBE WELL-MEANING
00:10:45.97\00:10:52.28
- JEWISH CHRISTIANS CAME UP FROM
JERUSALEM AND BEGAN TO SAY, 'HOW
00:10:52.31\00:10:57.85
COME YOU'RE NOT
KEEPING THE FEAST DAYS?'
00:10:57.89\00:10:59.82
'I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE
NOT CIRCUMCISING YOUR MALE
00:10:59.85\00:11:03.63
CHILDREN.' AND THEY BEGAN TO
START TELLING THEM - AND THEY
00:11:03.66\00:11:06.56
SHOWED IT TO THEM IN THE BIBLE
AND THEY SAID, 'OH, IT'S IN THE
00:11:06.59\00:11:08.70
BIBLE.' AND THEY STARTED GETTING
ALL BOGGED DOWN WITH THE LAWS
00:11:08.73\00:11:13.64
AND THE RITES AND THE CEREMONIAL
WASHINGS THAT THE PHARISEES
00:11:13.67\00:11:16.40
PRESCRIBED. AND
THE JOY THAT THEY HAD
00:11:16.44\00:11:20.21
EARLIER, THEY'D LOST IT.
PAUL GOT WORD OF THIS AND SO HE,
00:11:20.24\00:11:25.95
NO HOLDS BARRED, HE WRITES A
LETTER THAT IS PROBABLY ONE OF
00:11:25.98\00:11:30.52
THE STRONGEST LETTERS
THAT YOU FIND IN THE BIBLE.
00:11:30.55\00:11:32.82
NOW HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF
SOMEONE WRITES YOU A LETTER AND
00:11:32.85\00:11:35.09
SAYS, 'OH, FOOLISH GRANITE
BAY PEOPLE'? - (LAUGHTER) -
00:11:35.12\00:11:39.69
'WHO HAS MESMERIZED YOU?
HOW CAN YOU BE SO FOOLISH?'
00:11:39.73\00:11:43.77
AND THE WORD FOR FOOL THERE,
IT'S EVEN STRONGER THAN OUR
00:11:43.80\00:11:48.57
ENGLISH TRANSLATION FOR FOOL,
IT'S 'IMBECILES' - 'IDIOTS' -
00:11:48.60\00:11:55.54
YOU EVEN HATE
SAYING THAT IN CHURCH.
00:11:55.58\00:11:57.15
BUT THAT'S WHAT HE'S SAYING.
HE SAID, 'WHAT IN THE WORLD CAME
00:11:57.18\00:11:59.48
OVER YOU THAT
YOU'VE FALLEN FOR THIS?'
00:11:59.51\00:12:03.32
BUT HAVE YOU SEEN THIS
HAPPEN TO CHURCHES BEFORE?
00:12:03.35\00:12:05.89
WHERE THEY'RE GROWING IN
THE SPIRIT, THEY ACCEPT JESUS,
00:12:05.92\00:12:08.42
THEY'RE MOTIVATED BY LOVE,
THEY'RE SHARING THE GOSPEL, IT'S
00:12:08.46\00:12:11.73
SPREADING, AND, ALL OF A SUDDEN
THEY GET DISTRACTED WITH SOME
00:12:11.76\00:12:15.20
LEGALISTIC
CUL-DE-SAC. HAVE YOU SEEN THAT?
00:12:15.23\00:12:21.00
AND THERE'S NO LIMIT TO THEM.
00:12:21.04\00:12:22.60
I REMEMBER ONCE, WHEN I WAS
LIVING IN TEXAS YEARS AGO, I WAS
00:12:22.64\00:12:26.84
IN SOME BIBLE STUDY GROUP AND WE
WERE GROWING IN THE SPIRIT AND
00:12:26.88\00:12:30.41
EVERYTHING WAS GREAT AND SOMEONE
CAME ALONG AND THEY STARTED
00:12:30.45\00:12:33.25
SAYING THAT WE NEEDED TO - THE
MEN NEEDED TO ALL GROW BEARDS.
00:12:33.28\00:12:38.32
THAT, IF YOU DID NOT HAVE
A BEARD - AND THEY QUOTED THE
00:12:38.35\00:12:40.22
VERSE - THEY WENT TO THE
OLD TESTAMENT THAT SAID THAT YOU
00:12:40.26\00:12:43.89
SHALL NOT CUT THE
CORNERS OF YOUR BEARD.
00:12:43.93\00:12:46.49
AND I WAS A YOUNG CHRISTIAN
AND I THOUGHT, 'OH, IT'S IN THE
00:12:46.53\00:12:49.76
BIBLE, YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT TO
MISS OUT ON ANYTHING BECAUSE I'M
00:12:49.80\00:12:52.30
SUPPOSED TO BE DOING THIS.' AND
IT WAS AMAZING TO ME THAT I GOT
00:12:52.33\00:12:56.07
INTO A WHOLE BIBLE STUDY ON
BEARDS AND I WENT THROUGH THE
00:12:56.10\00:13:00.48
BIBLE AND I READ
EVERYTHING I COULD ON BEARDS.
00:13:00.51\00:13:03.18
YOU'LL BE HAPPY TO KNOW, I
DISCOVERED, AS YOU CAN SEE FROM
00:13:03.21\00:13:05.41
LOOKING AT ME, YOU DON'T HAVE
TO HAVE A BEARD TO BE SAVED.
00:13:05.45\00:13:07.92
(LAUGHTER) BUT, MATTER OF FACT,
THE WORD 'BEARD' DOES NOT APPEAR
00:13:07.95\00:13:13.15
IN THE NEW TESTAMENT,
YOU'LL BE HAPPY TO KNOW.
00:13:13.19\00:13:15.76
AND THEN IT TALKS ABOUT, YOU
KNOW, JOSEPH SHAVED HIMSELF AND
00:13:15.79\00:13:20.33
MEPHIOBSHETH TRIMMED HIS
MUSTACHE AND - ANYWAY, I GOT
00:13:20.36\00:13:23.40
INTO THE NITTY GRITTY OF
BEARD STUDY - MAN'S FACIAL HAIR.
00:13:23.43\00:13:27.64
CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT YOU COULD
GET SO WRAPPED UP IN ALL THAT?
00:13:27.67\00:13:31.94
WELL, THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS.
IT JUST BECAME A BIG DIVERSION.
00:13:31.97\00:13:35.51
AND THIS IS WHAT WAS GOING ON.
00:13:35.54\00:13:36.88
THEY'D STOP
SPREADING THE GOSPEL.
00:13:36.91\00:13:38.11
THEY WERE STUDYING ALL THESE
THINGS NOW AND PAUL WAS SAYING,
00:13:38.15\00:13:42.72
'WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? HOW
COULD YOU GET SO DISTRACTED?
00:13:42.75\00:13:47.76
SO I'VE SEEN THAT
HAPPEN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS.
00:13:47.79\00:13:51.83
IT DISGUISES ITSELF IN MANY
DIFFERENT FORMS, WHERE PEOPLE
00:13:51.86\00:13:55.96
CAN GET SO BOGGED DOWN IN SOME
DIVERSIONARY STUDY, THAT THEY
00:13:56.00\00:14:00.67
MISS THE GOSPEL. AND
SO, PAUL WAS BROKEN HEARTED.
00:14:00.70\00:14:04.67
AND SO, HE CAME
DOWN ON THEM PRETTY HARD.
00:14:04.71\00:14:09.08
NOW, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU HAVE
DIFFERENT CHILDREN, THEY RESPOND
00:14:09.11\00:14:13.82
DIFFERENT WAYS TO
DIFFERENT KINDS OF DISCIPLINE.
00:14:13.85\00:14:18.15
WHAT YOU MIGHT SAY TO ONE CHILD,
YOU MIGHT NOT SAY TO ANOTHER
00:14:18.19\00:14:20.92
CHILD, BECAUSE THEY'LL REACT
IN A TOTALLY REBELLIOUS WAY.
00:14:20.96\00:14:23.83
YOU COME DOWN STRONG ON ONE
CHILD AND IT'LL BREAK THEM AND
00:14:23.86\00:14:27.13
THEY'LL HUMBLE THEMSELVES.
PAUL KNEW THIS IS WHAT THE
00:14:27.13\00:14:29.73
GALATIANS NEEDED. IT DOESN'T
MEAN THAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO
00:14:29.76\00:14:32.67
START WRITING LETTERS
AND CALLING EVERYONE A FOOL.
00:14:32.70\00:14:35.77
PAUL KNEW THAT HE KNEW THIS
CHURCH, HE KNEW HOW THEY WOULD
00:14:35.80\00:14:39.64
OPERATE, HE KNEW THE ELDERS AND
LEADERS THERE, AND HE KNEW WHAT
00:14:39.67\00:14:41.91
HE NEEDED FOR THEM. AND
SO, JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND.
00:14:41.94\00:14:46.65
SO LET'S GO AHEAD AND WE'LL GET
INTO THE FIRST SECTION HERE -
00:14:46.68\00:14:49.18
THIS IS JUST A LITTLE
BACKGROUND OF WHAT WAS GOING ON.
00:14:49.22\00:14:52.82
AND SO, WHEN HE SAYS 'FOOLISH' -
FIRST OF ALL, DOESN'T JESUS SAY,
00:14:52.85\00:14:58.23
SOMEWHERE IN THE SERMON ON
THE MOUNT, 'DON'T CALL ANYBODY A
00:14:58.26\00:15:00.46
FOOL'? WELL, THAT
WORD THAT JESUS USED
00:15:00.50\00:15:04.30
AND THE WORD HERE, I
THINK, ARE TWO DIFFERENT WORDS.
00:15:04.33\00:15:06.63
AND, THE WORD THAT JESUS USED
- DID JESUS EVER CALL ANYONE A
00:15:06.67\00:15:09.60
FOOL? IN LUKE,
REMEMBER, HE TOLD THE
00:15:09.64\00:15:13.64
DISCIPLES, 'O FOOLS, AND SLOW
OF HEART TO BELIEVE ALL THAT
00:15:13.68\00:15:18.15
THE PROPHETS HAVE SPOKEN'?
AND, WHEN THE DISCIPLES WERE IN
00:15:18.18\00:15:21.85
THE BOAT AND HE SAID, 'O FOOLISH
ONES, WHERE IS YOUR FAITH?'
00:15:21.88\00:15:27.36
AND SO YOU CAN THINK OF OH,
MAYBE THREE, FOUR TIMES, WHERE
00:15:27.39\00:15:30.43
JESUS TURNED TO THE APOSTLES
AND HE CALLED THEM FOOLISH.
00:15:30.46\00:15:35.16
AND SO WHEN JESUS SAID, 'DON'T
CALL ANY MAN A FOOL OR YOU'RE IN
00:15:35.20\00:15:38.07
DANGER OF HELLFIRE, THAT WORD
THAT HE USED THERE MEANS 'DON'T
00:15:38.10\00:15:42.70
TELL ANYONE THEY'RE WORTHLESS'.
AND SO, IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT.
00:15:42.74\00:15:47.24
AND SO, YOU MIGHT WONDER WHEN
YOU SEE THAT, YOU KNOW, IS THAT
00:15:47.28\00:15:49.48
APPROPRIATE OR NOT?
BUT - SO HE SAYS THERE, 'O
00:15:49.51\00:15:55.15
FOOLISH GALATIANS,
WHO HAS BEWITCHED YOU?'
00:15:55.18\00:15:58.12
NOW, WHEN SOMEONE IS BEWITCHED
IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN
00:15:58.15\00:16:02.02
BEING MESMERIZED. YOU
CAN DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD AND,
00:16:02.06\00:16:07.60
IN SOME PARTS OF THE COUNTRY,
THE ROADS ARE PAVED WITH
00:16:07.60\00:16:11.17
CONCRETE AND THEY POUR IT IN
SECTIONS AND, AS - IT'S BECAUSE
00:16:11.20\00:16:14.50
IT GETS SO COLD THAT IF THEY'RE
ASPHALT, THEY CRACK UNDER
00:16:14.54\00:16:17.57
THE HEAT AND THE COLD.
SO THEY POUR CONCRETE ROADS.
00:16:17.61\00:16:20.71
BUT WITH CONCRETE, BECAUSE IT
EXPANDS AND CONTRACTS, YOU HAVE
00:16:20.74\00:16:23.21
TO HAVE SECTIONS. AND
SO, AS YOU'RE DRIVING DOWN
00:16:23.24\00:16:25.88
THESE CONCRETE INTERSTATES,
YOU'LL BE HEARING 'KACHUNK,
00:16:25.91\00:16:29.25
KACHUNK, KACHUNK, KACHUNK' -
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT?
00:16:29.28\00:16:33.42
AS THE TIRES GO OVER THE
LITTLE LINES IN THE ROAD.
00:16:33.46\00:16:35.22
NOW, IF YOU DO THAT WITH YOUR
WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON, YOU MIGHT
00:16:35.26\00:16:39.29
GET 'SHLOP, CLOP, DUNG, CHUNK,
SHLOP, CLOP, DUNG, CHUNK, CLOP,
00:16:39.33\00:16:42.16
CLOP, DUNG, CLUNK' -
AND IT CAN PUT YOU TO SLEEP.
00:16:42.20\00:16:46.50
IT CAN PUT YOU IN
A HYPNOTIC TRANCE.
00:16:46.53\00:16:49.87
AND I HAVE BEEN GOING DOWN
THE ROAD BEFORE WHERE I WENT
00:16:49.90\00:16:53.04
COMPLETELY BY MY TURN OFF. I
WAS SO EMBARRASSED ONE TIME, I
00:16:53.07\00:16:57.78
WAS WITH BONNIE - SHE'S SITTING
HERE - AND KAREN AND WE'RE ON
00:16:57.81\00:17:00.95
OUR WAY TO THE AIRPORT TO CATCH
A FLIGHT AND WE'RE A LITTLE LATE
00:17:00.98\00:17:02.92
- I'M ALREADY FRUSTRATED, BUT I
GOT MESMERIZED BY SOMETHING AND
00:17:02.95\00:17:07.52
I WENT RIGHT
PAST THE AIRPORT EXIT.
00:17:07.56\00:17:09.26
NOW, THOSE OF YOU IN SACRAMENTO,
DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IF
00:17:09.29\00:17:11.19
YOU MISS THE
EXIT TO THE AIRPORT?
00:17:11.23\00:17:12.63
(LAUGHTER) YOU
HAVE TO GO TO WOODLAND.
00:17:12.66\00:17:15.30
(LAUGHTER) YOU KNOW
WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT?
00:17:15.33\00:17:17.90
BEFORE YOU CAN TURN - YOU HAVE
TO DRIVE ALL THE WAY ACROSS THAT
00:17:17.93\00:17:19.83
- THAT CAUSEWAY AND - OH, I
WAS ALREADY LATE - AND I HAD TWO
00:17:19.87\00:17:24.44
WOMEN IN THE CAR REMINDING
ME THAT I MISSED MY TURN.
00:17:24.47\00:17:26.88
THAT WAS THE WORST PART
OF ALL. BUT I WAS MESMERIZED
00:17:26.91\00:17:31.28
BY SOMETHING. BUT
YOU'RE NOT GUILTY - WHEN
00:17:31.31\00:17:35.42
YOU'RE MESMERIZED - I MEAN, IT
CAN HAPPEN - YOU CAN BE TIRED,
00:17:35.45\00:17:37.75
YOU COULD BE DISTRACTED.
BEWITCHED IS DIFFERENT.
00:17:37.79\00:17:42.82
IT IS A SATANIC SPELL AND SO
HE'S, BASICALLY, NOT ONLY SAYING
00:17:42.86\00:17:47.86
'WHAT DISTRACTED YOU?', HE'S
SAYING, 'YOU'VE BEEN POSSESSED.
00:17:47.93\00:17:52.93
WHAT KIND OF SATANIC SPELL
HAS BEEN CAST UPON YOU THAT YOU
00:17:52.97\00:17:57.31
WOULD MISS THE SIMPLICITY OF THE
GOSPEL AND GET CAUGHT UP IN THIS
00:17:57.34\00:18:02.61
WORKS-ORIENTED
FORM OF THE GOSPEL?'
00:18:02.64\00:18:04.88
NOW, DO NOT THINK THAT WHAT
PAUL IS SAYING - WHEN SOMEONE IS
00:18:04.91\00:18:10.05
TALKING ABOUT SALVATION BY FAITH
AND NOT BY WORKS, WHAT BOOK DO
00:18:10.09\00:18:13.05
THEY GO TO? GALATIANS,
OFTEN - THEY GO TO GALATIANS.
00:18:13.09\00:18:16.96
WHEN SOMEONE IS TRYING TO SAY
THAT WE'RE NOT UNDER THE LAW BUT
00:18:16.99\00:18:19.36
WE'RE UNDER FAITH, WHERE DO
THEY GO? THEY GO TO GALATIANS.
00:18:19.39\00:18:22.46
BEFORE YOU FORGET THAT,
GO WITH ME TO GALATIANS 5.
00:18:22.50\00:18:26.80
THIS MAY COME UP IN OUR LATER
MESSAGE TODAY - VERSE 22 - NO, I
00:18:26.84\00:18:34.08
WANT TO BACK UP - VERSE 17 -
NO, I WANT TO GO TO VERSE 16 - I
00:18:34.11\00:18:41.58
LOVE ALL THE WORD OF GOD -
"I SAY THEN: WALK IN THE SPIRIT,
00:18:41.62\00:18:44.82
AND YOU SHALL NOT
FULFILL THE LUST OF THE FLESH.
00:18:44.85\00:18:47.12
FOR THE FLESH LUSTS AGAINST THE
SPIRIT, AND THE SPIRIT AGAINST
00:18:47.16\00:18:49.96
THE FLESH; AND THESE ARE
CONTRARY TO ONE ANOTHER, SO THAT
00:18:49.99\00:18:53.09
YOU DO NOT DO THE
THINGS THAT YOU WISH.
00:18:53.13\00:18:55.20
BUT IF YOU ARE LED BY THE
SPIRIT, YOU ARE NOT UNDER THE
00:18:55.23\00:18:57.03
LAW." - THAT'S
VERY IMPORTANT - "NOW
00:18:57.07\00:19:00.64
THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE
EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: ADULTERY,
00:19:00.67\00:19:03.37
FORNICATION, UNCLEANNESS,
LEWDNESS, IDOLATRY," - HE'S
00:19:03.41\00:19:06.47
CITING THINGS THAT
WOULD MEAN BREAKING THE LAW.
00:19:06.51\00:19:09.44
HE CALLS THEM
WORKS OF THE FLESH.
00:19:09.48\00:19:11.01
PAUL SAYS THAT THE WORKS OF
THE FLESH ARE BREAKING THE LAW.
00:19:11.05\00:19:16.92
SOME PEOPLE THINK, 'WELL, I'M
SPIRIT MINDED; THAT MEANS I CAN
00:19:16.95\00:19:19.89
BREAK THE LAW.' PAUL SAYS,
'NO, IF YOU'RE BREAKING THE LAW,
00:19:19.92\00:19:21.72
THOSE ARE THE
WORKS OF THE FLESH.
00:19:21.76\00:19:23.26
YOU'RE FLESH-MINDED.'
YOU SEE WHAT I'M SAYING?
00:19:23.29\00:19:26.66
"IDOLATRY, SORCERY,
HATRED, CONTENTIONS, JEALOUSIES,
00:19:26.70\00:19:30.37
OUTBURSTS OF WRATH,
SELFISH AMBITIONS, DISSENSIONS,
00:19:30.40\00:19:33.30
HERESIES, ENVY, MURDERS,
DRUNKENNESS, REVELRIES, AND THE
00:19:33.34\00:19:36.81
LIKE; OF WHICH I TELL YOU
BEFOREHAND, JUST AS I ALSO TOLD
00:19:36.84\00:19:39.27
YOU IN TIME PAST," - DON'T MISS
THIS - "THAT THOSE WHO PRACTICE
00:19:39.31\00:19:42.31
SUCH THINGS WILL NOT
INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD."
00:19:42.34\00:19:46.15
PAUL IS SAYING IF YOU ARE LIVING
A LIFE OF SIN, IF YOU ARE LIVING
00:19:46.18\00:19:49.68
A LIFE OF LAWLESSNESS, YOU WILL
NOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
00:19:49.72\00:19:54.36
DON'T EVER TRY TO USE GALATIANS
TO SAY THAT PAUL SUPPORTS
00:19:54.39\00:19:58.83
LAWLESSNESS. HE DOES NOT.
00:19:58.86\00:20:01.36
HE'S SAYING THAT YOU MUST BE
SPIRIT LED AND IF YOU ARE SPIRIT
00:20:01.40\00:20:04.80
LED YOU WILL
KEEP THE LAW. >>AMEN.
00:20:04.83\00:20:08.97
>>BUT TO JUST BE FOCUSED ON THE
LAW, YOU'RE GOING TO MISS THE
00:20:09.00\00:20:11.24
WHOLE IDEA OF THE SPIRIT
AND THE LOVE THAT MOBILIZES US.
00:20:11.27\00:20:15.41
ALRIGHT, SO, IN - WE READ
GALATIANS CHAPTER 3, VERSE 1,
00:20:15.44\00:20:21.15
"...WHO HAS BEWITCHED YOU THAT
YOU SHOULD NOT OBEY THE TRUTH,"
00:20:21.18\00:20:25.12
- DOES THE TRUTH
REQUIRE OBEDIENCE?
00:20:25.15\00:20:26.69
DOES FAITH REQUIRE OBEDIENCE?
- "BEFORE WHOSE EYES JESUS
00:20:26.72\00:20:30.19
CHRIST WAS CLEARLY PORTRAYED
AMONG YOU" - NOW THE WORD
00:20:30.23\00:20:32.33
'PORTRAYED' HE USES THERE IS
LIKE - EVEN BACK IN BIBLE TIMES
00:20:32.36\00:20:36.53
THEY WOULD MAKE A BILLBOARD
AND THEY WOULD PUT UP A BIG SIGN
00:20:36.56\00:20:39.53
ANNOUNCING SOME NEW STATE EVENT
OR SOMETHING THAT WAS HAPPENING,
00:20:39.57\00:20:43.20
AND THEY'D HAVE ROADSIDE
SIGNS. EVEN ABOVE JESUS' HEAD,
00:20:43.24\00:20:46.68
DID THEY HAVE A
SIGN? A PLACARD WAS THERE.
00:20:46.71\00:20:49.44
A BILLBOARD WAS EVEN BIGGER.
HE'S SAYING THAT JESUS WAS
00:20:49.48\00:20:52.35
PORTRAYED - HE'S SAYING,
'I CLEARLY PUT UP A BILLBOARD
00:20:52.38\00:20:57.12
EXPLAINING THAT WE ARE
SAVED BY FAITH IN THE CROSS.
00:20:57.15\00:21:00.76
HOW COME YOU'RE NOW THINKING
WE ARE SAVED BY CIRCUMCISION?'
00:21:00.79\00:21:03.66
AGAIN, I WANT TO REPEAT - I SAID
WAY TOO MUCH ABOUT THIS IN AN
00:21:03.69\00:21:06.63
EARLIER STUDY, BUT I JUST WANT
TO MAKE IT CLEAR - THE PRINCIPLE
00:21:06.66\00:21:10.10
ISSUE OF ARGUMENT IN
GALATIANS IS NOT THE SABBATH.
00:21:10.13\00:21:15.84
PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT LAW AND
FAITH ALWAYS ARE ARGUING AGAINST
00:21:15.87\00:21:18.31
THE SABBATH.
SABBATH DOES NOT APPEAR -
00:21:18.34\00:21:21.68
THE WORD - IN GALATIANS.
WHAT WAS THE PRINCIPLE
00:21:21.71\00:21:25.05
ARGUMENT ABOUT? WHAT LAW?
00:21:25.08\00:21:27.48
CIRCUMCISION. THAT
WAS THE BIG ARGUMENT.
00:21:27.52\00:21:30.19
SO THE PEOPLE WHO CAME
FROM JERUSALEM WERE ARGUING THE
00:21:30.22\00:21:33.05
GENTILES NEEDED
TO BE CIRCUMCISED.
00:21:33.09\00:21:35.29
THAT'D ALREADY BEEN
SETTLED: THEY DID NOT.
00:21:35.32\00:21:37.79
SO - JUST WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT THAT'S CLEAR.
00:21:37.83\00:21:43.83
"...CLEARLY PORTRAYED
AMONG YOU AS CRUCIFIED?
00:21:43.87\00:21:46.63
THIS ONLY I WANT TO LEARN FROM
YOU: DID YOU RECEIVE THE SPIRIT
00:21:46.67\00:21:49.90
BY THE WORKS OF THE LAW,
OR BY THE HEARING OF FAITH?"
00:21:49.94\00:21:53.84
YOU KNOW, REVELATION DESCRIBES
WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO THE
00:21:53.88\00:21:55.71
GALATIANS: THEY HAD LOST THEIR
FIRST LOVE AND, INSTEAD OF BEING
00:21:55.74\00:22:01.28
MOTIVATED BY LOVE FOR GOD, IT
NOW BECAME 'I'VE GOT TO DO THIS'
00:22:01.32\00:22:05.45
AND 'I'VE GOT TO DO
THAT.' 'ARE YOU DOING THIS?'
00:22:05.49\00:22:07.22
AND 'ARE YOU DOING THAT?'
INSTEAD OF 'ARE YOU BELIEVING
00:22:07.26\00:22:09.59
THAT YOU CAN BE
FORGIVEN FOR YOUR LIFE OF SIN.
00:22:09.62\00:22:13.36
AND SO, HE'S
CALLING THEM FOOLISH.
00:22:13.40\00:22:16.20
AND, BY THE WAY, THAT VERSE THAT
I WAS TELLING YOU ABOUT EARLIER,
00:22:16.23\00:22:19.73
MATTHEW 5:22, "BUT I SAY TO YOU
THAT WHOEVER IS ANGRY WITH HIS
00:22:19.77\00:22:22.70
BROTHER WITHOUT A CAUSE SHALL
BE IN DANGER OF THE JUDGMENT.
00:22:22.74\00:22:28.18
AND WHOEVER SAYS TO
HIS BROTHER, 'RACA!'
00:22:28.21\00:22:29.78
SHALL BE IN
DANGER OF THE COUNCIL.
00:22:29.81\00:22:31.48
BUT WHOEVER SAYS, 'YOU FOOL!'
00:22:31.51\00:22:32.98
SHALL BE IN
DANGER OF HELL FIRE."
00:22:33.01\00:22:35.22
GO AHEAD, SOMEONE'S GOING
TO READ, FOR ME, LUKE 24:25 - I
00:22:35.25\00:22:38.65
THINK I TOUCHED ON IT - YOU'LL
HAVE THAT IN JUST A MOMENT?
00:22:38.69\00:22:40.92
LET ME READ ONE MORE VERSE HERE.
MATTHEW 23:17, "FOOLS AND BLIND!
00:22:40.96\00:22:47.30
FOR WHICH IS GREATER, THE GOLD
OR THE TEMPLE THAT SANCTIFIES
00:22:47.36\00:22:50.57
THE GOLD?" AND
MATTHEW 23:23, JESUS IS
00:22:50.60\00:22:53.67
TALKING TO THE SCRIBES
AND PHARISEES - "HYPOCRITES!"
00:22:53.70\00:22:55.57
HE CALLS THEM FOOLS. LOOK
- I'LL READ ONE MORE - LUKE
00:22:55.60\00:22:58.81
19 - SORRY, LUKE 12:19, "AND I
WILL SAY TO MY SOUL, 'SOUL, YOU
00:22:58.84\00:23:04.41
HAVE MANY GOODS LAID UP FOR
MANY YEARS; TAKE YOUR EASE; EAT,
00:23:04.45\00:23:07.98
DRINK, AND BE MERRY.'
BUT GOD SAID TO HIM, 'FOOL!
00:23:08.02\00:23:11.75
THIS NIGHT YOUR SOUL WILL BE
REQUIRED OF YOU; THEN WHOSE WILL
00:23:11.79\00:23:15.16
THOSE THINGS BE
WHICH YOU HAVE PROVIDED?'"
00:23:15.19\00:23:17.26
- THAT'S THE PARABLE OF THE MAN
WHO BUILDS THE BARN AND WANTS
00:23:17.29\00:23:19.59
THE CRAM THE BARN WITH MORE
THINGS BUT HE DOESN'T HAVE ROOM
00:23:19.63\00:23:21.90
SO HE BUILDS BIGGER BARNS SO HE
CAN JUST LIVE SELFISHLY AND GOD
00:23:21.93\00:23:25.73
SAYS, 'YOU'RE A FOOL.' GO
AHEAD, READ FOR US LUKE 24:25.
00:23:25.77\00:23:30.84
>>"THEN HE SAID TO THEM, 'O
FOOLISH ONES, AND SLOW OF HEART
00:23:30.87\00:23:34.44
TO BELIEVE IN ALL THAT
THE PROPHETS HAVE SPOKEN!
00:23:34.48\00:23:37.01
OUGHT NOT THE CHRIST TO HAVE
SUFFERED THESE THINGS AND TO
00:23:37.05\00:23:39.95
ENTER INTO HIS GLORY?'"
>>SO, WHEN PAUL CALLS THE
00:23:39.98\00:23:43.75
GALATIANS FOOLS,
DOES HE LOVE THEM?
00:23:43.79\00:23:46.59
NOW WHEN JESUS CALLED THE
SCRIBES AND PHARISEES FOOLS,
00:23:46.62\00:23:49.02
SOME MIGHT ARGUE, 'WELL, THEY
WERE HIS ENEMIES, THEY TRIED TO
00:23:49.06\00:23:51.19
KILL HIM.' AND WHEN JESUS CALLS
THE BARN BUILDER A FOOL, WELL,
00:23:51.23\00:23:54.73
THAT'S A PARABLE ABOUT A FOOL.
AND, OF COURSE, THE BIBLE SAYS
00:23:54.73\00:23:57.50
'THE FOOL HAS SAID IN HIS
HEART THERE IS NO GOD' - BUT THE
00:23:57.53\00:24:00.94
GALATIANS BELIEVE THERE IS A
GOD - THEY'RE CHURCH MEMBERS.
00:24:00.97\00:24:04.47
THEN JESUS CALLED
THE APOSTLES FOOLS.
00:24:04.51\00:24:07.38
HE DID IN THIS VERSE.
HE'S TALKING TO CLEOPAS AND HIS
00:24:07.41\00:24:10.28
COMPANION THAT ARE ON THE ROAD
TO EMMAUS. AND SO, YOU KNOW,
00:24:10.31\00:24:18.49
SOMETIMES THE LORD HAS
TO EVEN TELL THOSE HE LOVES.
00:24:18.52\00:24:22.19
ROMANS 2:17, "INDEED YOU ARE
CALLED A JEW, AND REST ON THE
00:24:22.22\00:24:27.13
LAW, AND MAKE YOUR BOAST IN GOD,
AND KNOW HIS WILL, AND APPROVE
00:24:27.20\00:24:30.63
THE THINGS THAT ARE EXCELLENT,
BEING INSTRUCTED OUT OF THE LAW,
00:24:30.67\00:24:33.70
AND ARE CONFIDENT THAT YOU
YOURSELF ARE A GUIDE TO THE
00:24:33.74\00:24:36.17
BLIND, A LIGHT TO THOSE WHO ARE
IN DARKNESS, AN INSTRUCTOR OF
00:24:36.20\00:24:39.44
THE FOOLISH, A TEACHER OF
BABES," - YOU KNOW, THE WORD
00:24:39.47\00:24:45.85
'FOOL' IS OFTEN
APPLIED TO CHILDREN.
00:24:45.88\00:24:49.48
HAVE YOU EVER READ THAT PROVERB
'FOOLISHNESS IS BOUND UP IN THE
00:24:49.52\00:24:53.12
HEART OF A CHILD'?
ANYONE SAY 'AMEN' TO THAT?
00:24:53.15\00:24:57.73
YOU SEE KIDS PLAYING WITH SHARP
OBJECTS AND FIRE AND, YOU KNOW,
00:24:57.76\00:25:02.56
THEY'RE JUST NOT
REALLY THINKING VERY CLEARLY.
00:25:02.60\00:25:04.97
SO WHEN PAUL CALLS THE GALATIANS
FOOLS, HE'S SPEAKING AS HE WOULD
00:25:05.00\00:25:08.04
TO HIS CHILDREN. I
JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW
00:25:08.07\00:25:09.44
IT'S - HE STILL LOVES THEM.
HE'S NOT INSULTING THEM, OKAY?
00:25:09.47\00:25:15.51
2 CORINTHIANS 4, VERSES 4 AND 5,
"WHOSE MINDS THE GOD OF THIS AGE
00:25:15.54\00:25:21.02
HAS BLINDED, WHO DO NOT BELIEVE,
LEST THE LIGHT OF THE GOSPEL OF
00:25:21.05\00:25:24.72
THE GLORY OF CHRIST, WHO IS THE
IMAGE OF GOD, SHOULD SHINE ON
00:25:24.75\00:25:27.49
THEM. FOR WE DO
NOT PREACH OURSELVES,
00:25:27.52\00:25:30.19
BUT CHRIST JESUS THE LORD,
AND OURSELVES YOUR BONDSERVANTS
00:25:30.23\00:25:32.89
FOR JESUS' SAKE." AND
SO HERE, HE'S SAYING THAT
00:25:32.93\00:25:36.97
THE GODS OF THIS AGE -
WHO IS THE GOD OF THIS AGE?
00:25:37.00\00:25:42.07
SATAN - THE ONE WHOSE
PRINCIPALITY AND POWER AND
00:25:42.10\00:25:45.14
HEAVENLY PLACES
HAD BLINDED THEM.
00:25:45.17\00:25:47.61
PAUL IS SAYING, TO THE
GALATIANS, 'YOU'VE BEEN BLINDED.
00:25:47.64\00:25:51.08
YOU'VE BEEN MESMERIZED BY THE
DEVIL. YOU'VE BEEN DISTRACTED.'
00:25:51.11\00:25:55.42
I'M GOING TO PREACH A
SERMON - YOU WATCH FOR IT.
00:25:55.45\00:25:58.85
IT'S GOING TO BE CALLED CAN
I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION, PLEASE?
00:25:58.89\00:26:03.99
ALRIGHT, WE'RE GOING TO READ
GALATIANS CHAPTER 3, VERSE 6,
00:26:04.03\00:26:07.40
"JUST AS ABRAHAM 'BELIEVED GOD,
AND IT WAS ACCOUNTED TO HIM FOR
00:26:07.46\00:26:12.27
RIGHTEOUSNESS.'" SOMEONE'S GOING
TO READ, FOR ME, ROMANS 10:16
00:26:12.30\00:26:16.10
AND 17 - YOU'LL
HAVE THAT, KELLY?
00:26:16.14\00:26:17.74
ALRIGHT, I'M GOING TO READ
GALATIANS - I'M GOING TO READ
00:26:17.77\00:26:19.81
ROMANS 1, VERSE 2, "WHICH
HE PROMISED BEFORE THROUGH HIS
00:26:19.84\00:26:24.81
PROPHETS IN THE HOLY
SCRIPTURES," - SO PAUL - WHERE
00:26:24.85\00:26:28.52
DOES HE APPEAL AS HIS FINAL
AUTHORITY FOR PROVING A POINT TO
00:26:28.55\00:26:31.19
THE GALATIANS?
TO THE SCRIPTURES.
00:26:31.22\00:26:34.22
HOW MUCH NEW
TESTAMENT DID PAUL READ?
00:26:34.26\00:26:39.29
I HEARD SOMEONE SAY, ONCE, 'IF
THE KING JAMES VERSION WAS GOOD
00:26:39.33\00:26:42.16
ENOUGH FOR PAUL, IT'S GOOD
ENOUGH FOR ME.' (LAUGHTER) AND,
00:26:42.20\00:26:46.77
OF COURSE, HE DIDN'T HAVE THE
KING JAMES VERSION - HE DIDN'T
00:26:46.80\00:26:49.10
READ ENGLISH. AND
PAUL DID NOT READ THE NEW
00:26:49.14\00:26:55.28
TESTAMENT BECAUSE THE NEW
TESTAMENT WAS NOT COMPILED.
00:26:55.31\00:26:58.25
SO ALL THE APOSTLES, WHEN THEY
APPEALED TO SCRIPTURE, THERE'S
00:26:58.28\00:27:02.38
ONE PLACE WHERE PETER APPEALS
TO THE WRITINGS OF PAUL AND JUDE
00:27:02.42\00:27:06.45
APPEALS TO THE WRITINGS OF PETER
AS SCRIPTURE, SO THEY STARTED TO
00:27:06.49\00:27:09.62
QUOTE EACH OTHER AS SCRIPTURE,
A LITTLE BIT, BUT NINETY-NINE
00:27:09.66\00:27:12.93
PERCENT OF THE TIME, WHEN
THEY'RE REFERRING TO SCRIPTURE
00:27:12.96\00:27:14.93
IN THE NEW TESTAMENT, THEY'RE
TALKING ABOUT THE OLD TESTAMENT.
00:27:14.96\00:27:18.87
GO AHEAD, READ FOR ME,
PLEASE, ROMANS 10:16 AND 17.
00:27:18.90\00:27:23.00
>>"BUT THEY HAVE NOT
ALL OBEYED THE GOSPEL.
00:27:23.04\00:27:26.51
FOR ISAIAH SAYS, 'LORD,
WHO HAS BELIEVED OUR REPORT?'
00:27:26.54\00:27:31.01
SO THEN FAITH COMES BY HEARING,
AND HEARING BY THE WORD OF GOD."
00:27:31.05\00:27:36.62
>>SO WHAT IS PAUL SAYING, HERE
IN ROMANS, IS THE FINAL ARBITER?
00:27:36.65\00:27:41.26
WHAT IS THE FINAL EVIDENCE?
WHERE DO YOU POINT TO AS THE
00:27:41.29\00:27:45.13
ULTIMATE PROOF THAT
SOMETHING IS TRUE? SCRIPTURE.
00:27:45.16\00:27:49.36
DID JESUS DO THAT? YOU
KNOW, I UNDERSTAND THAT TEN
00:27:49.40\00:27:53.40
PERCENT OF WHAT JESUS
SAID, HE WAS QUOTING FROM
00:27:53.44\00:27:56.24
THE OLD TESTAMENT. AND
EVERY TIME JESUS WAS TEMPTED
00:27:56.27\00:28:00.64
BY THE DEVIL WHAT DID HE
SAY? 'IT IS WRITTEN' - AND
00:28:00.68\00:28:03.68
WHERE DID HE QUOTE?
DEUTERONOMY, IN PARTICULAR,
00:28:03.71\00:28:06.88
BUT THE OLD TESTAMENT, RIGHT?
AND SO, JESUS USED - AND, YOU
00:28:06.92\00:28:10.95
KNOW, I GET - IT
ALWAYS MAKES ME SAD.
00:28:10.99\00:28:13.36
I VISIT DIFFERENT CHURCHES AND
I'LL SEE THEY SOMETIMES SUPPLY A
00:28:13.39\00:28:16.62
BIBLE FOR THE MEMBERS, AND
IT'S JUST THE NEW TESTAMENT.
00:28:16.66\00:28:20.16
SOMETIMES IT'LL BE A
NEW TESTAMENT AND PSALMS.
00:28:20.20\00:28:22.66
SOME OF YOU REMEMBER, BEFORE
WE BECAME HYPER POLITICALLY
00:28:22.70\00:28:25.83
CORRECT, IN THE MILITARY THEY
USED TO GIVE ALL THE SOLDIERS
00:28:25.87\00:28:30.41
THE NEW TESTAMENT WITH PSALMS.
DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THAT?
00:28:30.44\00:28:33.68
I'VE STILL GOT MY FATHER'S
VERSION FROM WORLD WAR II AND
00:28:33.71\00:28:37.31
THEY FIGURED, WELL, WE'VE GOT
THE PSALMS FOR THE JEWISH PEOPLE
00:28:37.35\00:28:39.55
AND WE'VE GOT THE NEW TESTAMENT
FOR THE GENTILES - FOR THE
00:28:39.58\00:28:42.95
CHRISTIANS - AND - BUT, NO,
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN DO THAT
00:28:42.98\00:28:46.32
NOW. THEY WERE - I GUESS YOU
CAN STILL GET THEM, BUT IT WAS
00:28:46.35\00:28:49.82
MILITARY ISSUE TO EVERYBODY BACK
THEN. OKAY, SO HE'S SAYING HERE
00:28:49.86\00:28:56.90
THAT THE SCRIPTURE IS
WHERE WE GET THE EVIDENCE.
00:28:56.93\00:29:00.07
LOOK IN GALATIANS 3, VERSE 8,
"AND THE SCRIPTURE, FORESEEING
00:29:00.10\00:29:04.67
THAT GOD WOULD JUSTIFY THE
GENTILES BY FAITH, PREACHED THE
00:29:04.71\00:29:08.51
GOSPEL TO ABRAHAM BEFOREHAND,
SAYING, 'IN YOU ALL THE NATIONS
00:29:08.54\00:29:12.35
SHALL BE BLESSED.'" NOW HAVE YOU
EVER HEARD IT SAID BEFORE - 'IN
00:29:12.38\00:29:21.12
THE NEW TESTAMENT WE'VE GOT THE
DISPENSATION OF FAITH - IN THE
00:29:21.16\00:29:25.36
OLD TESTAMENT IT WAS THE
DISPENSATION OF LAW' - OR
00:29:25.39\00:29:28.36
SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
HAVE YOU HEARD THAT BEFORE?
00:29:28.40\00:29:30.77
THAT NOW WE ARE SAVED BY GRACE
THROUGH FAITH, BUT GOD HAD THE
00:29:30.80\00:29:35.54
LAW COVENANT WITH THE
JEWS - THEY WERE SAVED BY LAW.'
00:29:35.57\00:29:39.84
WAS ANYBODY EVER
SAVED BY LAW? >>NO.
00:29:39.87\00:29:43.18
>>NO. THERE MAY HAVE BEEN PEOPLE
IN THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS
00:29:43.21\00:29:45.85
THAT THOUGHT THAT, BUT
WHAT IS PAUL SAYING HERE?
00:29:45.88\00:29:50.65
ISN'T PAUL SAYING THAT
EVEN ABRAHAM, BACK IN GENESIS -
00:29:50.69\00:29:53.96
THAT'S ABOUT AS FAR BACK AS YOU
CAN GET IN THE OLD TESTAMENT,
00:29:53.99\00:29:56.36
BELIEVED HE WAS SAVED BY
GRACE. HE WAS SAVED BY FAITH.
00:29:56.39\00:30:00.96
DO WE HAVE OTHER SCRIPTURES THAT
SAY THAT? ROMANS 4:3, "FOR WHAT
00:30:00.96\00:30:04.63
DOES THE SCRIPTURE SAY?
'ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND
00:30:04.67\00:30:07.30
IT WAS ACCOUNTED TO HIM FOR
RIGHTEOUSNESS.'" NOW, BY THE
00:30:07.34\00:30:09.77
WAY, VERY IMPORTANT POINT
- TAKE YOUR BIBLES, GO TO THE
00:30:09.80\00:30:13.21
BOOK OF GENESIS CHAPTER 12.
I WANT TO LOOK AT THIS WITH YOU
00:30:13.24\00:30:19.61
AND THEN I WANT TO
BRING OUT A POINT, IF I MAY.
00:30:19.65\00:30:23.22
YOU GO TO GENESIS CHAPTER 12 AND
HERE IS THIS PASSAGE THAT WE'VE
00:30:23.25\00:30:26.35
REFERRED TO IT ALREADY IN PRIOR
STUDIES, "NOW THE LORD HAD SAID
00:30:26.39\00:30:35.76
TO ABRAM: 'GET OUT OF YOUR
COUNTRY, FROM YOU FAMILY AND
00:30:35.80\00:30:38.13
FROM YOUR FATHER'S HOUSES,
TO A LAND THAT I WILL SHOW YOU.
00:30:38.17\00:30:40.70
I WILL MAKE YOU A GREAT NATION;
I WILL BLESS YOU AND MAKE YOUR
00:30:40.74\00:30:43.54
NAME GREAT; AND YOU
SHALL BE A BLESSING.
00:30:43.57\00:30:46.24
I WILL BLESS THOSE WHO BLESS YOU
AND CURSE HIM WHO CURSES YOU;
00:30:46.27\00:30:49.54
AND IN YOU ALL THE FAMILIES OF
THE EARTH SHALL BE BLESSED.' SO
00:30:49.58\00:30:53.28
ABRAM DEPARTED." ABRAHAM WENT
OUT NOT KNOWING WHERE HE WENT.
00:30:53.31\00:30:58.25
HE WENT OUT BY
FAITH. GOD ACCEPTS ABRAHAM.
00:30:58.29\00:31:03.16
HE CALLS ABRAHAM
BECAUSE ABRAHAM IS A JEW.
00:31:03.19\00:31:07.13
WAS ABRAHAM A JEW? >>NO.
00:31:07.20\00:31:11.87
>>AFTER ABRAHAM WAS CIRCUMCISED,
DID HE THEN BECOME A JEW?
00:31:11.90\00:31:17.17
SO WHEN GOD CALLED
ABRAHAM, WAS HE CIRCUMCISED?
00:31:17.21\00:31:20.41
HE CALLED HIM FROM THE GENTILES
AND HE ACCEPTED HIM BY FAITH
00:31:20.44\00:31:23.31
BEFORE HE WAS CIRCUMCISED.
THAT IS A VERY IMPORTANT
00:31:23.35\00:31:26.58
POINT THAT PAUL IS
MAKING IN GALATIANS.
00:31:26.61\00:31:29.45
HE'S SAYING ABRAHAM
WAS SAVED BY FAITH IN GOD.
00:31:29.48\00:31:33.19
IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH
CIRCUMCISION, IT HAD TO DO WITH
00:31:33.22\00:31:36.29
BELIEVING. ABRAHAM
BELIEVED GOD, IT WAS
00:31:36.32\00:31:38.13
COUNTED TO HIM FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS
BEFORE CIRCUMCISION.
00:31:38.16\00:31:43.73
SO WHEN THEY SHOW UP
FROM JERUSALEM AND THEY'RE
00:31:43.77\00:31:45.77
TELLING THE GALATIANS 'YOU
ALL NEED TO BE CIRCUMCISED TO BE
00:31:45.80\00:31:47.90
SAVED, PAUL'S SAYING, 'NOW WAIT
A SECOND, WE'RE GOING BACK TO
00:31:47.94\00:31:50.61
THE SAME FAITH THAT SAVED
ABRAHAM.' AND THIS IS ONE OF THE
00:31:50.64\00:31:54.71
CENTRAL POINTS IN THIS LESSON,
IS THAT WE ARE SAVED BY FAITH.
00:31:54.74\00:31:59.85
NOW, IF WE ARE SAVED BY FAITH,
DOES THE LAW HAVE ANY PART OF
00:31:59.88\00:32:07.26
THAT? THERE'S A -
AN INTERESTING QUOTE
00:32:07.29\00:32:12.96
IN THE BOOK STEPS TO CHRIST -
I THINK IT'S PAGE 60, BUT DON'T
00:32:12.99\00:32:16.70
QUOTE ME ON THAT,
YOU HAVE TO LOOK IT UP.
00:32:16.73\00:32:18.90
AND IT BASICALLY SAYS - I'LL
PARAPHRASE - THAT THERE'RE TWO
00:32:18.93\00:32:23.41
ERRORS AGAINST WHICH A NEW
BELIEVER IN CHRIST NEEDS TO
00:32:23.44\00:32:27.14
ESPECIALLY GUARD. ONE
IS THE NOTION THAT WE ARE
00:32:27.18\00:32:31.61
SAVED BY KEEPING OF THE LAW
AND ANYTHING WE MIGHT DO TO SAVE
00:32:31.65\00:32:36.38
OURSELVES IS GOING TO
BE POLLUTED BY SELFISHNESS.
00:32:36.42\00:32:38.85
THEN SHE GOES ON TO SAY, THE
OTHER, NO LESS DANGEROUS NOTION
00:32:38.89\00:32:42.12
IS THAT, BECAUSE WE BELIEVE
THAT WE ARE RELEASED FROM AN
00:32:42.16\00:32:44.29
OBLIGATION TO OBEY,
WHICH IS EQUALLY DANGEROUS.
00:32:44.33\00:32:48.56
BUT YOU ARE SAVED BY FAITH
ALONE, BUT IF YOU ARE SAVED BY
00:32:48.60\00:32:53.87
FAITH ALONE, AND YOU CONTINUE
LIVING, THERE WILL BE A CHANGE
00:32:53.90\00:32:58.17
SEEN IN THE LIFE.
YOUR FAITH WILL BE SEEN, AS
00:32:58.21\00:33:01.91
JAMES SAYS, IN YOUR WORKS.
THE THIEF ON THE CROSS WHO
00:33:01.94\00:33:06.78
TURNED TO JESUS AND SAID, 'LORD,
REMEMBER ME WHEN YOU COME INTO
00:33:06.82\00:33:09.98
YOUR KINGDOM.' AND
JESUS SAID, 'I AM PROMISING
00:33:10.02\00:33:12.12
YOU TODAY, YOU WILL BE WITH
ME IN PARADISE.' WAS HE SAVED?
00:33:12.15\00:33:16.93
HE WAS SAVED BY FAITH IN THE
CROSS. HE LOOKED AT JESUS ON THE
00:33:16.96\00:33:19.19
CROSS - HE WAS SAVED.
WAS HE SAVED BY HIS WORKS?
00:33:19.23\00:33:23.83
WELL, ONE WORK -
THE WORK OF BELIEVING.
00:33:23.87\00:33:28.80
WHEN THEY SAID TO JESUS, 'HOW
SHALL WE WORK THE WORKS OF GOD,
00:33:28.84\00:33:31.84
JESUS SAID, 'THIS IS THE WORK
OF GOD, THAT YOU BELIEVE.' THAT
00:33:31.87\00:33:34.44
SOUNDS LIKE JESUS IS
DOING A PLAY ON WORDS.
00:33:34.48\00:33:36.71
HE SAID, 'HERE'S THE WORK I
WANT YOU TO DO: BELIEVE.' SO THE
00:33:36.75\00:33:39.98
THIEF WAS NOT SAVED AT ALL BY
WORKS, HE WAS SAVED ENTIRELY BY
00:33:40.02\00:33:44.02
LOOKING TO THE CROSS IN
FAITH. THAT'S A WONDERFUL STORY.
00:33:44.05\00:33:47.86
I'M SO GLAD THAT'S IN LUKE - YOU
DON'T FIND IT IN JOHN, YOU DON'T
00:33:47.89\00:33:50.36
FIND IT IN MATTHEW, YOU DON'T
FIND IT IN MARK. I'M SO GLAD
00:33:50.39\00:33:52.96
LUKE TALKED ABOUT THAT THIEF
THAT WAS SAVED ENTIRELY BY FAITH
00:33:52.99\00:33:57.03
FOR LOOKING TO CHRIST AND
BELIEVING. I'M GLAD FOR THE
00:33:57.07\00:34:01.47
STORY OF ZACCHEUS, WHO, HE SAW
CHRIST UP IN A TREE - THERE'S AN
00:34:01.50\00:34:08.01
ANALOGY THERE SOMEWHERE - IT WAS
FROM THE TREE THAT THE THIEF SAW
00:34:08.04\00:34:13.11
JESUS AND I'M
CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST.
00:34:13.15\00:34:18.72
IF I'M LIFTED UP - JESUS
SAID WE ARE CRUCIFIED WITH HIM.
00:34:18.75\00:34:22.12
ZACCHEUS CLIMBED A
TREE AND HE SAW JESUS.
00:34:22.16\00:34:24.53
WE TAKE UP OUR
CROSS AND WE SEE JESUS.
00:34:24.56\00:34:26.16
IMMEDIATELY, WHEN HE REPENTS AND
CONFESSES, GOD SAYS, 'YOU ARE A
00:34:26.19\00:34:29.46
CHILD OF ABRAHAM.' BUT I JUST
PULLED OUT A FEW REFERENCES HERE
00:34:29.50\00:34:34.30
THAT TALK ABOUT THE
IMPORTANCE OF FAITH.
00:34:34.34\00:34:36.81
AND, LET ME SEE, AM I
GETTING AHEAD OF MYSELF?
00:34:36.84\00:34:39.97
PROBABLY. I'M
GOING TO DO IT ANYWAY.
00:34:40.01\00:34:44.48
GENESIS 15:6 - WE JUST READ
GENESIS 12 - "AND HE BELIEVED IN
00:34:44.51\00:34:48.05
THE LORD, AND HE ACCOUNTED
IT TO HIM FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS."
00:34:48.08\00:34:51.19
RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH. 2
SAMUEL 22:31, "AS FOR GOD, HIS
00:34:51.22\00:34:58.39
WAY IS PERFECT; THE WORD OF THE
LORD IS PROVEN; HE IS A SHIELD
00:34:58.43\00:35:01.80
TO ALL WHO TRUST" -
OR HAVE FAITH - "IN HIM."
00:35:01.83\00:35:05.07
"BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO TRUSTS
IN THE LORD, WHOSE HOPE IS IN
00:35:05.10\00:35:07.80
THE LORD." THAT
WAS JEREMIAH 17:7.
00:35:07.84\00:35:10.71
SO I'VE JUST BEEN
READING OLD TESTAMENT.
00:35:10.74\00:35:12.57
WERE THEY SAVED BY WORKS IN THE
OLD TESTAMENT OR WERE THEY SAVED
00:35:12.61\00:35:15.18
BY FAITH? >>FAITH.
00:35:15.21\00:35:17.18
>>NOBODY IS GOING TO GET TO
HEAVEN BECAUSE OF THEIR WORKS.
00:35:17.21\00:35:21.25
SO I'VE GOT A QUIZ FOR
YOU. IS ANYBODY IN HEAVEN NOW?
00:35:21.28\00:35:25.49
>>YES. >>WHO'S THERE?
00:35:25.52\00:35:27.92
>>MOSES, ENOCH -
>>ENOCH, MOSES, ELIJAH -
00:35:27.96\00:35:32.46
>>JESUS - >>JESUS -
00:35:32.49\00:35:34.46
>>THE PEOPLE HE
RAISED. >>THE PEOPLE THAT WERE
00:35:34.46\00:35:36.20
RESURRECTED - MATTHEW 28 -
WITH JESUS - THAT WENT TO - THE
00:35:36.23\00:35:39.70
GRAVES WERE OPENED
AROUND JERUSALEM, SOME OF THEM.
00:35:39.73\00:35:43.44
OKAY, BUT LET'S TALK
ABOUT MOSES, ENOCH, AND ELIJAH.
00:35:43.47\00:35:49.34
IS ANYONE IN HEAVEN GOING TO SAY
THAT 'I'M HERE BASED ON MY GOOD
00:35:49.38\00:35:52.38
WORKS'? HOW DO WE
GET THERE? >>FAITH.
00:35:52.41\00:35:56.95
>>FAITH IN WHAT? >>JESUS.
00:35:56.99\00:35:58.92
>>AND HIS
SACRIFICE ON THE CROSS.
00:35:58.95\00:36:00.69
HOW COULD MOSES, ELIJAH, AND
ENOCH GET TO HEAVEN BEFORE THE
00:36:00.72\00:36:03.32
CROSS? >>BY FAITH.
00:36:03.36\00:36:06.76
>>BUT JESUS HADN'T DIED
YET. THEY WERE SAVED BY FAITH.
00:36:06.80\00:36:11.90
ANY OF YOU - YOU DON'T HAVE TO
RAISE YOUR HANDS - YOU EVER ASK
00:36:11.93\00:36:13.97
FOR AN ADVANCE ON YOUR PAYCHECK?
(LAUGHTER) YOU RAN OUT OF MONEY
00:36:14.00\00:36:19.81
BEFORE YOU RAN OUT OF MONTH
AND YOU ASKED FOR AN ADVANCE.
00:36:19.84\00:36:25.15
YOU GET THAT ADVANCE BASED
ON WORK YOU HAVE NOT DONE YET.
00:36:25.18\00:36:29.88
MOSES, ELIJAH, ENOCH - THEY GOT
TO HEAVEN BASED ON A WORK JESUS
00:36:29.92\00:36:33.92
HAD NOT DONE YET BUT
PROPHECY SAID HE WOULD DO.
00:36:33.96\00:36:37.96
WOULDN'T IT HAVE BEEN TERRIBLE
FOR THEM IF JESUS HAD FAILED AND
00:36:37.99\00:36:41.13
THE ANGEL SAID, 'LOOK, GUYS,
I'VE GOT BAD NEWS.' (LAUGHTER)
00:36:41.16\00:36:44.70
'YOU'VE GOT TO LEAVE HEAVEN.'
THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN TERRIBLE.
00:36:44.73\00:36:49.24
BUT THEY WERE NOT
SAVED BY THEIR WORKS.
00:36:49.27\00:36:51.54
NOW THE BIBLE SAYS ENOCH WALKED
WITH GOD BUT HE WASN'T - IT WAS
00:36:51.57\00:36:53.94
A WALK OF FAITH, WASN'T IT?
SO WHEN YOU GO TO HEBREWS AND IT
00:36:53.98\00:36:57.55
TALKS ABOUT ELIJAH AND IT
TALKS ABOUT MOSES, DOESN'T IT
00:36:57.58\00:37:00.45
TALK ABOUT THEIR
FAITH? I DON'T KNOW THAT IT
00:37:00.48\00:37:02.92
SPECIFICALLY TALKS ABOUT ENOCH'S
- YEAH IT DOES - NOT THERE IN
00:37:02.95\00:37:06.62
HEBREWS, BUT MOSES, IT
SAYS, WAS SAVED BY FAITH.
00:37:06.65\00:37:11.76
AND SO NOBODY IN THE OLD
TESTAMENT IS SAVED BY WORKS -
00:37:11.79\00:37:14.46
I JUST WANT THAT TO BE CLEAR.
00:37:14.50\00:37:15.90
ALRIGHT, LET'S KEEP
GOING WITH OUR STUDY HERE.
00:37:15.93\00:37:19.80
2 TIMOTHY 3:16 AND 17,
"ALL SCRIPTURE IS GIVEN BY
00:37:19.83\00:37:24.07
INSPIRATION OF GOD, AND IS
PROFITABLE FOR DOCTRINE, FOR
00:37:24.11\00:37:27.88
REPROOF, FOR CORRECTION, FOR
INSTRUCTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS,
00:37:27.91\00:37:30.98
THAT THE MAN OF GOD MAY BE
COMPLETE, THOROUGHLY EQUIPPED
00:37:31.01\00:37:34.78
FOR EVERY GOOD
WORK." - I THOUGHT WE'RE
00:37:34.82\00:37:37.39
SAVED BY FAITH. THESE
ARE GOOD WORKS OF FAITH.
00:37:37.42\00:37:41.66
THE VERY WORD 'INSPIRATION'
MEANS 'GOD BREATHE' - ALL
00:37:41.69\00:37:44.99
SCRIPTURE IS GOD BREATHE.
LET ME SEE HERE, IF YOU LOOK IN
00:37:45.03\00:37:53.94
ACTS 15 - MATTER OF FACT, I WANT
YOU TO READ GALATIANS CHAPTER 3,
00:37:53.97\00:38:02.94
VERSE 9 - IS THAT THE ONE I'M
LOOKING FOR? ALRIGHT, LET ME - I
00:38:02.98\00:38:09.95
WANT TO READ SOMETHING TO YOU
FROM ACTS 15 - ACTS 15, VERSE
00:38:09.98\00:38:12.75
15, "AND WITH THIS THE WORDS OF
THE PROPHETS AGREE, JUST AS IT
00:38:12.79\00:38:18.86
IS WRITTEN: 'AFTER THIS I
WILL RETURN AND WILL REBUILD THE
00:38:18.89\00:38:22.00
TABERNACLE OF DAVID, WHICH HAS
FALLEN DOWN; I WILL REBUILD ITS
00:38:22.03\00:38:25.50
RUINS, AND I WILL SET IT UP;
SO THAT THE REST OF MANKIND MAY
00:38:25.53\00:38:29.27
SEEK THE LORD, EVEN ALL THE
GENTILES WHO ARE CALLED BY MY
00:38:29.30\00:38:33.48
NAME," - SO PAUL ACTUALLY
REFERS TO THIS IN GALATIANS.
00:38:33.51\00:38:37.55
ALL OF THE GENTILES - IN
ACTS 15 - WHAT ARE THEY SAYING?
00:38:37.58\00:38:43.82
THEY'RE QUOTING
THE OLD TESTAMENT.
00:38:43.85\00:38:46.12
THAT'S WHAT HE SAID: 'THIS IS
WHAT IS WRITTEN' AND THEY QUOTE
00:38:46.15\00:38:49.26
AMOS 9, VERSES 11-12 AND THEY
SAY, 'ALL OF THE GENTILES WILL
00:38:49.29\00:38:54.40
COME TO THE TABERNACLE OF DAVID.
ISN'T JESUS THE SON OF DAVID
00:38:54.46\00:38:59.50
THAT WAS TO
REBUILD THE TABERNACLE?
00:38:59.53\00:39:01.30
SO THEY ALWAYS KNEW THE GENTILES
WOULD COME - IT DIDN'T SAY
00:39:01.34\00:39:03.84
THEY'D BECOME JEWS -
NOT AS FAR AS CIRCUMCISION.
00:39:03.87\00:39:07.88
NOW, DOES EVERY
BELIEVER BECOME A SPIRITUAL JEW?
00:39:07.91\00:39:13.48
>>YES. >>IS THERE A SALVATION
00:39:13.52\00:39:15.92
COVENANT MADE WITH GENTILES?
THE NEW COVENANT - 'A NEW
00:39:15.95\00:39:21.96
COVENANT I WILL MAKE AFTER THOSE
DAYS,' SAYS THE LORD, 'WITH THE
00:39:21.99\00:39:24.76
HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND THE
HOUSE OF JUDAH.' WHO IS THE NEW
00:39:24.79\00:39:28.36
COVENANT MADE WITH? WITH JEWS.
00:39:28.40\00:39:31.60
ARE THE GENTILES TO BE A
DIFFERENT TREE THAN THE JEWS, OR
00:39:31.63\00:39:36.54
ARE THEY GRAFTED IN
TO THE STALK OF ISRAEL?
00:39:36.57\00:39:40.81
ROMANS 9 SAYS THEY'RE GRAFTED
IN. SO DOES THE LORD HAVE TWO
00:39:40.84\00:39:43.85
SEPARATE CHURCHES?
HE'S GOT A JEWISH CHURCH
00:39:43.88\00:39:46.25
AND A GENTILE
CHURCH? IT'S ALL ONE CHURCH.
00:39:46.28\00:39:51.52
HE'S GOT - THERE'S ONE LORD, ONE
FAITH, ONE BAPTISM, ONE CHURCH,
00:39:51.55\00:39:55.62
ONE SPIRIT - RIGHT? AND
SO, WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
00:39:55.66\00:39:59.43
IS IT A GENTILE CHURCH
OR IS IT A JEWISH CHURCH?
00:39:59.46\00:40:03.13
NOW, THAT'S A TRICK QUESTION.
WE ARE ALL SPIRITUALLY JEWS.
00:40:03.16\00:40:11.67
CAN YOU BE A PHYSICAL
JEW AND A SPIRITUAL JEW?
00:40:11.71\00:40:16.18
CAN YOU BE SAVED JUST
BECAUSE YOU'RE A PHYSICAL JEW?
00:40:16.21\00:40:19.48
ARE YOU SAVED
BECAUSE YOU'RE A GENTILE?
00:40:19.51\00:40:23.18
OR ARE YOU ONLY SAVED
BECAUSE OF YOUR SPIRITUAL FAITH?
00:40:23.22\00:40:27.22
JEW OR GENTILE, IT'S BASED ON
FAITH. NOW, IF YOU'RE A JEW, YOU
00:40:27.26\00:40:31.09
MAY WANT TO FOLLOW SOME OF THE
JEWISH CUSTOMS, BUT YOU'RE NOT
00:40:31.13\00:40:34.20
SAVED BY THOSE THINGS, RIGHT?
DID PAUL, SOMETIMES, ACCOMMODATE
00:40:34.23\00:40:39.07
THE JEWS THAT HE
COULD REACH THE JEWS?
00:40:39.10\00:40:42.44
DOESN'T THE BIBLE SAY PAUL SAID,
'I BECAME ALL THINGS TO ALL MEN
00:40:42.47\00:40:45.11
THAT I MIGHT
WIN SOME TO CHRIST'?
00:40:45.14\00:40:47.84
AND SO, YOU KNOW, YOU TRY TO
IDENTIFY WITH PEOPLE AS MUCH AS
00:40:47.88\00:40:50.38
YOU COULD, NOT BEING - YOU
KNOW, YOU DON'T WANT TO IDENTIFY
00:40:50.41\00:40:54.18
WHERE, LIKE, 'IN ROME DO AS THE
ROMANS' AND SO YOU HAVE ORGIES.
00:40:54.22\00:40:57.69
THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU DISOBEY
THE LAW TO BE LIKE PEOPLE.
00:40:57.72\00:41:00.86
BUT, AS FAR AS YOU CAN TRY
TO IDENTIFY WITH PEOPLE TO REACH
00:41:00.89\00:41:04.29
THEM, YOU CREATE THAT
BRIDGE AND MAKE IT EASIER.
00:41:04.33\00:41:07.20
ALRIGHT, MOVING ALONG HERE,
WE'RE GOING TO GO TO THE NEXT
00:41:07.23\00:41:09.63
SECTION TALKING ABOUT RECKONED
AS RIGHTEOUS AND SOMEONE'S GOING
00:41:09.66\00:41:12.90
TO READ, FOR ME, JOHN 3 - I'M
SORRY, JOHN 8, VERSE 39 - YOU'LL
00:41:12.93\00:41:17.61
HAVE THAT? OKAY. I'M
GOING TO READ ROMANS 4,
00:41:17.64\00:41:21.88
VERSES 1-5, "WHAT THEN SHALL WE
SAY THAT ABRAHAM OUR FATHER HAS
00:41:21.91\00:41:26.65
FOUND ACCORDING TO THE FLESH?
FOR IF ABRAHAM WAS JUSTIFIED BY
00:41:26.68\00:41:30.42
WORKS, HE HAS SOMETHING TO
BOAST ABOUT, BUT NOT BEFORE GOD.
00:41:30.45\00:41:35.16
FOR WHAT DOES THE SCRIPTURE
SAY? 'ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND
00:41:35.19\00:41:39.16
IT WAS ACCOUNTED TO HIM FOR
RIGHTEOUSNESS.' NOW TO HIM WHO
00:41:39.19\00:41:42.56
WORKS, THE WAGES ARE NOT
COUNTED AS GRACE BUT AS DEBT.
00:41:42.60\00:41:46.57
BUT TO HIM WHO DOES NOT WORK BUT
BELIEVES ON HIM WHO JUSTIFIES
00:41:46.60\00:41:49.67
THE UNGODLY, HIS FAITH IS
ACCOUNTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS," -
00:41:49.70\00:41:53.04
WHAT PAUL IS REALLY SAYING HERE
IS YOU WORK ALL WEEK LONG AT
00:41:53.07\00:41:58.21
YOUR JOB, AT THE END OF THE WEEK
THE BOSS CALLS YOU IN AND SAYS,
00:41:58.25\00:42:03.32
'I'VE GOT GOOD NEWS. I'VE
GOT A GIFT FOR YOU.' AND HE
00:42:03.35\00:42:06.25
HANDS YOU AN ENVELOPE AND
YOU OPEN IT AND YOU THINK IT'S A
00:42:06.29\00:42:09.36
BONUS, BUT IT'S NOT, IT'S YOUR
PAYCHECK. AND YOU LOOK PUZZLED
00:42:09.39\00:42:14.13
AT YOUR BOSS AND YOU SAY, 'WHY
ARE YOU TELLING ME THIS IS A
00:42:14.20\00:42:16.93
GIFT? THIS IS NOT A
GIFT, I EARNED THIS.
00:42:16.97\00:42:19.90
THIS IS MINE. YOU
OWE IT TO ME, RIGHT?
00:42:19.93\00:42:23.51
YOU TOLD ME YOU
WERE GIVING ME A GIFT.
00:42:23.54\00:42:25.41
THAT'S WHY PAUL IS SAYING THAT,
'IF YOU WORK FOR IT, IT'S NOT
00:42:25.44\00:42:28.44
FAITH'. YOU SEE
WHAT HE'S SAYING HERE?
00:42:28.48\00:42:31.61
"NOW TO TIME WHO WORKS, THE
WAGES ARE NOT COUNTED AS GRACE
00:42:31.65\00:42:35.68
BUT AS DEBT. BUT TO
HIM WHO DOES NOT WORK BUT
00:42:35.72\00:42:39.62
BELIEVES ON HIM WHO JUSTIFIES
THE UNGODLY, HIS FAITH IS
00:42:39.65\00:42:42.89
ACCOUNTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS".
SO, AFTER MANESSEH - DO WE ALL
00:42:42.92\00:42:47.40
KNOW WHO MANESSEH WAS -
THE KING? WICKED KING - KILLED
00:42:47.40\00:42:51.37
ISAIAH THE PROPHET -
OFFERED SOME OF HIS CHILDREN AS
00:42:51.40\00:42:54.50
SACRIFICES TO PAGAN
GODS. HE WAS A WICKED KING.
00:42:54.54\00:42:57.27
GOT CARRIED OFF -
PUT IN PRISON IN ASSYRIA.
00:42:57.31\00:43:00.51
HE TURNED TO THE LORD. HE
REPENTED AND GOD FORGAVE HIM.
00:43:00.54\00:43:06.08
COULD MANESSEH BOAST THAT HE
WAS FORGIVEN BECAUSE OF HIS GOOD
00:43:06.11\00:43:08.42
WORKS? OR WAS IT
ENTIRELY BECAUSE OF HIS GRACE?
00:43:08.45\00:43:12.59
YOU KNOWN, THERE WAS A WONDERFUL
PROMISE IN THE BIBLE - IN
00:43:12.62\00:43:17.03
EZEKIEL - WAIT A SECOND -
I'LL READ THAT IN A SECOND -
00:43:17.06\00:43:19.03
JOHN, GO AHEAD, READ YOUR VERSE.
00:43:19.06\00:43:20.76
>>JOHN 8:39-40, "THEY ANSWERED
AND SAID TO HIM, 'ABRAHAM IS OUR
00:43:20.80\00:43:28.54
FATHER.' JESUS SAID TO THEM, 'IF
YOU WERE ABRAHAM'S CHILDREN, YOU
00:43:28.57\00:43:32.74
WOULD DO THE WORKS OF ABRAHAM.
BUT NOW YOU SEEK TO KILL ME, A
00:43:32.77\00:43:36.75
MAN WHO HAS TOLD YOU THE
TRUTH WHICH I HEARD FROM GOD.
00:43:36.78\00:43:40.58
ABRAHAM DID NOT DO THIS."
>>YEAH, HE'S SAYING, 'ABRAHAM,
00:43:40.62\00:43:46.45
HE WOULD HAVE BELIEVED
ME.' IT SAYS 'ABRAHAM LONGED TO
00:43:46.49\00:43:48.59
SEE MY DAY AND HE SAW IT.
ABRAHAM WAS SAVED BY FAITH, IF
00:43:48.62\00:43:51.93
YOU'RE CHILDREN OF
ABRAHAM, ABRAHAM LOOKED TO
00:43:51.96\00:43:54.56
CHRIST IN FAITH. WHEN
ABRAHAM WAS ON THE MOUNTAIN
00:43:54.56\00:43:57.63
WITH HIS SON AND [ABRAHAM]
SAID, 'GOD'LL PROVIDE HIMSELF A
00:43:57.67\00:44:00.57
SACRIFICE', HE LOOKED BEYOND
THAT AND HE SAW THE GOSPEL.
00:44:00.60\00:44:06.88
JESUS REVEALED
THE GOSPEL TO HIM.
00:44:06.91\00:44:08.58
GOD PREACHED THE
GOSPEL TO ABRAHAM.
00:44:08.61\00:44:11.28
AND SO, HE SAID, 'YOU WOULD
BELIEVE WHAT ABRAHAM BELIEVED,
00:44:11.31\00:44:14.68
BUT YOU'RE NOT
ABRAHAM'S CHILDREN.'
00:44:14.72\00:44:18.09
YOU KNOW, ABRAHAM IS
MENTIONED 74 TIMES IN THE NEW
00:44:18.12\00:44:22.09
TESTAMENT. AND SO,
HE IS REALLY A CHARACTER
00:44:22.12\00:44:26.26
- AN OLD TESTAMENT CHARACTER
WHO'S AN EXAMPLE OF FAITH.
00:44:26.29\00:44:29.16
NOW I WAS GOING TO READ
SOMETHING TO YOU - EZEKIEL 18:21
00:44:29.20\00:44:31.60
- I WAS TALKING ABOUT MANESSEH A
MOMENT AGO, "BUT IF A WICKED MAN
00:44:31.63\00:44:36.47
TURNS FROM ALL OF HIS SINS WHICH
HE HAS COMMITTED, KEEPS" - NOW,
00:44:36.50\00:44:41.04
PICK ANY WICKED MAN YOU WANT -
HAVE YOU - YOU'VE PROBABLY HEARD
00:44:41.08\00:44:46.55
OF SOME THINGS YOU JUST
DON'T THINK CAN BE FORGIVEN.
00:44:46.58\00:44:50.29
'ALL MANNER OF SIN AND BLASPHEMY
WILL BE FORGIVEN TO THE CHILDREN
00:44:50.32\00:44:53.19
OF MEN' - THERE'S ONLY ONE THING
IT SAYS CANNOT BE FORGIVEN.
00:44:53.22\00:44:56.36
WILL THERE BE
MURDERERS THAT ARE FORGIVEN?
00:44:56.39\00:45:01.06
>>YES. >>WILL
THERE BE ADULTERERS
00:45:01.10\00:45:05.37
THAT ARE FORGIVEN? >>YES.
00:45:05.40\00:45:07.90
>>DOES GOD FORGIVE
EXTORTIONERS AND GLUTTONS?
00:45:07.94\00:45:13.38
DOES THE LORD
FORGIVE PEDOPHILES?
00:45:13.41\00:45:18.45
IT JUST SEEMS SO SINISTER
IT'S HARD FOR US, YOU KNOW?
00:45:18.48\00:45:21.75
BUT I'M GOING TO - COME
ON, LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN DO IT.
00:45:21.78\00:45:23.59
TRY AND SAY 'YES'.
(LAUGHTER) I KNOW IT'S
00:45:23.62\00:45:26.62
HARD TO GET IT OUT.
IT'S SOMETHING WE - WE WOULD
00:45:26.65\00:45:29.99
HAVE A HARD TIME FORGIVING.
ALL MANNER OF SIN AND BLASPHEMY.
00:45:30.03\00:45:37.07
SO GOD FORGIVES
ALL KINDS OF THINGS.
00:45:37.10\00:45:38.67
SO YOU'VE GOT A PERSON WHO
IS GUILTY OF ALL THESE THINGS
00:45:38.70\00:45:40.54
TOGETHER, LIKE MANESSEH,
AND THEY REPENT - THEY SINCERELY
00:45:40.57\00:45:45.91
REPENT AND THEY'RE FORGIVEN, DO
THEY EVER HAVE ANY RIGHT TO SAY
00:45:45.94\00:45:49.71
'I WAS FORGIVEN
BECAUSE OF MY GOOD WORKS'?
00:45:49.74\00:45:52.28
CAN ANYONE REALLY SAY THEY'RE
FORGIVEN BY THEIR GOOD WORKS?
00:45:52.31\00:45:57.22
JOB WAS A PERFECT AND UPRIGHT
MAN WHO FEARED GOD AND HATED
00:45:57.25\00:46:00.46
EVIL - 'PERFECT AND UPRIGHT'.
ZECHARIAH AND ELIZABETH WERE
00:46:00.49\00:46:04.16
PERFECT BEFORE THE LORD,
KEEPING - WALKING IN ALL THE
00:46:04.19\00:46:06.90
COMMANDMENTS OF THE
LORD. WERE JOB, ZECHARIAH, AND
00:46:06.93\00:46:10.30
ELIZABETH - ARE THEY GOING
TO BE SAVED BY THEIR GOOD WORKS?
00:46:10.33\00:46:14.74
DID THEY SIN?
HOW MANY HAVE SINNED?
00:46:14.77\00:46:18.11
>>ALL. >>ALL EXCEPT WHO?
00:46:18.14\00:46:20.04
>>JESUS. >>THE
BIBLE SAYS HE DID NO SIN.
00:46:20.08\00:46:22.64
EVERYONE ELSE HAS SINNED.
WHAT'S THE PENALTY FOR SIN?
00:46:22.68\00:46:25.11
>>DEATH. >>SO
EVEN IF THE MOST MORAL,
00:46:25.15\00:46:28.22
WELL-BEHAVED PERSON YOU CAN FIND
IN THE BIBLE - THAT MIGHT BE
00:46:28.25\00:46:32.22
DANIEL, THAT MIGHT BE JOSEPH
- ALL OF THEM DESERVE DEATH
00:46:32.25\00:46:36.96
BECAUSE ALL OF THEM SINNED.
SO NONE OF THEM CAN BOAST
00:46:36.99\00:46:40.93
ANYTHING BUT GRACE. I
REMEMBER TALKING TO SOMEONE
00:46:40.96\00:46:45.90
ONCE AND TALKED ABOUT
SALVATION. THEY SAID, 'WELL, I'M
00:46:45.93\00:46:49.60
NOT WORRIED ABOUT IT. I
FIGURE, I'VE DONE MORE GOOD
00:46:49.64\00:46:51.97
THINGS THAN BAD THINGS AND
SO GOD'S GOING TO FORGIVE ME.
00:46:52.01\00:46:54.71
THEIR IDEA OF THE JUDGMENT DAY
WAS GOD WAS GOING TO TAKE ALL
00:46:54.74\00:46:56.85
THE BAD THINGS YOU DID - AND
THEY ADMITTED THERE WERE PLENTY
00:46:56.88\00:46:58.71
THEY HAD DONE - AND THEN HE'D
TAKE THE GOOD THINGS - AND HE
00:46:58.75\00:47:00.98
SAID, 'WELL, I THINK MY LIST OF
GOOD THINGS OUTWEIGHS MY LIST OF
00:47:01.02\00:47:03.62
BAD THINGS, SO I'M OKAY.' ALL
YOU NEED IS ONE BAD THING AND
00:47:03.65\00:47:08.42
THE PENALTY'S DEATH. YOU
CAN'T, THEN, SAY, 'I'VE DONE
00:47:08.46\00:47:11.13
ALL THESE GOOD THINGS.'
AND SO, EVERYBODY NEEDS TO
00:47:11.16\00:47:14.66
DEPEND ON GRACE, AMEN? >>AMEN.
00:47:14.73\00:47:18.17
>>ALRIGHT, GOING TO THE GOSPEL
IN THE OLD TESTAMENT - LEVITICUS
00:47:18.20\00:47:23.27
17 - MATTER OF
FACT, WHAT'S YOUR VERSE?
00:47:23.30\00:47:27.24
>>DEUTERONOMY
27:26. >>OH, OKAY, I'LL GET
00:47:27.28\00:47:29.54
YOU IN JUST A MINUTE.
LEVITICUS 17:11, "FOR THE LIFE
00:47:29.58\00:47:33.21
OF THE FLESH IS IN THE BLOOD,
AND I HAVE GIVEN IT TO YOU UPON
00:47:33.25\00:47:36.45
THE ALTAR TO MAKE ATONEMENT FOR
YOUR SOULS; FOR IT IS THE BLOOD
00:47:36.48\00:47:41.92
THAT MAKES
ATONEMENT FOR THE SOUL."
00:47:41.96\00:47:43.66
SO WHAT WAS IT THAT
PROVIDED FORGIVENESS FOR PEOPLE?
00:47:43.69\00:47:47.93
WAS IS THE GOOD
WORKS OR WAS IT THE BLOOD?
00:47:47.96\00:47:50.53
THE IDEA OF BEING SAVED BY GRACE
THROUGH FAITH IN THE BLOOD IS
00:47:50.57\00:47:55.07
NOT A NEW TESTAMENT CONCEPT.
IT'S AN OLD TESTAMENT CONCEPT.
00:47:55.10\00:47:58.74
DID THEY REALLY THINK THE BLOOD
OF LAMBS WOULD WASH AWAY THEIR
00:47:58.77\00:48:01.88
SIN? DOESN'T
GOD SAY, IN THE BOOK
00:48:01.91\00:48:04.68
OF MICAH, 'WHAT HAS
THE LORD REQUIRED OF YOU?
00:48:04.71\00:48:08.52
DOES HE WANT RIVERS OF BLOOD?
TEN THOUSAND BURNT OFFERINGS?'
00:48:08.55\00:48:11.42
- I'M PARAPHRASING NOW - HE
SAYS, 'NO, NONE OF THAT.' HE
00:48:11.45\00:48:15.26
SAYS, 'WILL I GIVE MY
CHILD FOR THE SIN OF MY SOUL?'
00:48:15.29\00:48:18.69
AND IT'S AN ALLUSION TO
WHAT GOD DID WITH JESUS BUT -
00:48:18.73\00:48:21.06
HE SAID, 'NO.' DAVID SAID, 'IF
IT WAS THE FAT OF RAMS AND GOATS
00:48:21.10\00:48:27.30
THAT YOU DESIRED,
I WOULD OFFER IT.'
00:48:27.34\00:48:29.90
BUT WHAT DOES THE LORD
WANT? A CONTRITE SPIRIT.
00:48:29.94\00:48:32.27
HE WANTS US TO HUMBLE OURSELVES
BEFORE THE LORD AND TO REPENT.
00:48:32.31\00:48:35.18
IT'S BY FAITH - BY HUMBLING
OURSELVES - BY REPENTING -
00:48:35.21\00:48:38.01
THAT'S HOW WE
RECEIVE FORGIVENESS.
00:48:38.05\00:48:40.72
GENESIS 12:1 THROUGH 3 - I
ALREADY READ THIS TO YOU - SORRY
00:48:40.75\00:48:45.15
- LET'S GO TO ZECHARIAH 3,
VERSES 1 THROUGH 4, "THEN HE
00:48:45.19\00:48:48.56
SHOWED ME JOSHUA THE HIGH PRIEST
STANDING BEFORE THE ANGEL OF
00:48:48.59\00:48:51.16
THE LORD, AND SATAN STANDING AT
HIS RIGHT HAND TO OPPOSE HIM."
00:48:51.19\00:48:55.10
- OR TO ACCUSE HIM - YOU KNOW,
IT TELLS US IN REVELATION SATAN
00:48:55.13\00:48:58.80
IS CALLED THE WHAT?
THE ACCUSER - REVELATION 12
00:48:58.83\00:49:02.24
- HE'S THE
ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN.
00:49:02.27\00:49:04.47
HE POINTS TO OUR
SINS AND HE ACCUSES US.
00:49:04.51\00:49:06.78
HERE YOU'VE GOT ZECHARIAH 3 -
SATAN IS LOOKING AT THE SINS OF
00:49:06.81\00:49:10.18
GOD'S PEOPLE THAT WERE BORNE ON
THE GARMENTS OF THE HIGH PRIEST
00:49:10.21\00:49:13.98
- AND SO SATAN'S STANDING THERE.
THE PRIEST WAS SUPPOSED TO MAKE
00:49:14.02\00:49:17.72
ATONEMENT AND SO, LIKE
CHRIST, HE'S OUR HIGH PRIEST.
00:49:17.75\00:49:21.32
AND HE'S "...STANDING AT
HIS RIGHT HAND TO OPPOSE HIM.
00:49:21.36\00:49:25.49
AND THE LORD SAID TO SATAN,
'THE LORD REBUKE YOU, SATAN!
00:49:25.53\00:49:29.23
THE LORD WHO HAS
CHOSEN JERUSALEM REBUKE YOU!
00:49:29.26\00:49:32.20
IS THIS NOT A BRAND
PLUCKED FROM THE FIRE?'
00:49:32.23\00:49:35.67
NOW JOSHUA WAS CLOTHED
WITH FILTHY GARMENTS, AND WAS
00:49:35.70\00:49:38.27
STANDING BEFORE THE ANGEL.
THEN HE ANSWERED AND SPOKE TO
00:49:38.31\00:49:41.24
THOSE WHO STOOD BEFORE HIM,
SAYING, 'TAKE AWAY THE FILTHY
00:49:41.28\00:49:44.65
GARMENTS FROM HIM.' AND TO HIM
HE SAID, 'SEE, I HAVE REMOVED
00:49:44.68\00:49:47.48
YOUR INIQUITY FROM YOU,
AND I WILL CLOTHE YOU WITH RICH
00:49:47.52\00:49:50.12
ROBES.'" AND THIS IS WHAT
THE LORD DOES WITH SALVATION.
00:49:50.15\00:49:53.69
HE MAKES A TRADE
WITH US. HE TAKES AWAY OUR
00:49:53.72\00:49:55.92
FILTHY GARMENTS.
HE GIVES US HIS ROBES
00:49:55.96\00:49:58.03
OF
RIGHTEOUSNESS. HOW ARE THE SAVED
00:49:58.06\00:50:00.96
DESCRIBED IN REVELATION?
THEY HAVE WASHED THEIR ROBES
00:50:00.96\00:50:04.40
AND MADE THEM WHITE IN
WHAT? THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB.
00:50:04.43\00:50:07.77
IS THAT A NEW TESTAMENT CONCEPT
OR AN OLD TESTAMENT CONCEPT?
00:50:07.80\00:50:12.21
IT GOES ALL THE WAY
BACK TO THE BEGINNING.
00:50:12.24\00:50:14.88
ALRIGHT, READ, FOR
US, PLEASE DEUTERONOMY 27.
00:50:14.91\00:50:18.65
>>DEUTERONOMY 27:26, "CURSED IS
THE ONE WHO DOES NOT CONFIRM ALL
00:50:18.68\00:50:24.02
THE WORDS OF THIS LAW...'
AND ALL THE PEOPLE SHALL SAY,
00:50:24.05\00:50:27.36
'AMEN!'"
>>ALRIGHT, NOW THIS IS UNDER
00:50:27.39\00:50:29.19
THE SECTION
REDEEMED FROM THE CURSE .
00:50:29.22\00:50:31.96
WE READ IN GALATIANS THAT
IT SAYS THAT CURSED IS EVERYONE
00:50:31.99\00:50:34.83
WHO HANGS UPON A TREE.
CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO DOES
00:50:34.86\00:50:37.30
NOT CONTINUE IN ALL THINGS
THAT ARE WRITTEN IN THE LAW.
00:50:37.33\00:50:41.57
THE BIBLE SAYS THAT THE LAW IS
THERE AS A WITNESS AGAINST US,
00:50:41.60\00:50:44.84
ACCORDING TO
GALATIANS CHAPTER 2.
00:50:44.87\00:50:46.98
AND SO, IF WE'RE HOPING THAT WE
CAN STAND JUST IN THE LIGHT OF
00:50:47.01\00:50:50.65
THE LAW AND FIND RIGHTEOUSNESS,
NOT UNLESS WE'RE FIRST WASHED.
00:50:50.68\00:50:55.22
NOW, WILL PEOPLE
BE JUDGED BY THE LAW?
00:50:55.25\00:50:58.59
'SO DO AND SO SPEAK AS THOSE
THAT WILL BE JUDGED BY THE LAW
00:50:58.62\00:51:03.16
OF LIBERTY.' - THAT'S IN
JAMES CHAPTER 2 - SO THERE IS A
00:51:03.19\00:51:06.59
JUDGMENT ON THE LAW,
BUT WE'RE NOT SAVED BY THAT.
00:51:06.63\00:51:09.20
WE'RE SAVED BY GRACE.
IT'S THE GRACE THAT FORGIVES
00:51:09.23\00:51:11.63
US FROM ALL OUR LAWLESSNESS.
2 CORINTHIANS 5, VERSE 21, "FOR
00:51:11.67\00:51:18.91
HE MADE HIM WHO KNEW NO SIN
TO BE SIN FOR US, THAT WE MIGHT
00:51:18.94\00:51:24.35
BECOME THE
RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM."
00:51:24.38\00:51:28.02
CHRIST WHO WAS
SINLESS BECAME SIN FOR US.
00:51:28.05\00:51:32.15
IT'S LIKE WHEN MOSES
LIFTED UP THE SERPENT.
00:51:32.19\00:51:34.62
WHEN MOSES WAS ON THE MOUNTAIN
AND THE PEOPLE WERE FIGHTING A
00:51:34.66\00:51:37.43
BATTLE AND HE WAS TOLD TO
INTERCEDE AND HE LIFTED UP HIS
00:51:37.46\00:51:41.23
ARMS; AND WHEN HIS ARMS WENT
DOWN, THEY LOST AND WHEN HIS
00:51:41.26\00:51:44.93
ARMS WENT UP THEY WON.
THEY WON THE BATTLE BASED ON
00:51:44.97\00:51:48.74
BELIEVING IN THE INTERCESSION
OF MOSES, NOT IN THEIR
00:51:48.77\00:51:52.87
PROWESS AS SOLDIERS. WHEN
DAVID WENT AGAINST GOLIATH,
00:51:52.91\00:51:58.18
WERE THERE WORKS INVOLVED?
HE USED THE SLING, HE USED THE
00:51:58.21\00:52:01.62
SWORD, BUT TO WHAT
DID HE GIVE THE CREDIT?
00:52:01.65\00:52:05.19
HE SAID, 'I'M COMING IN THE NAME
OF THE LORD.' WHEN JOSEPH WAS
00:52:05.22\00:52:08.96
SOLD BY HIS BROTHERS AND HE
SUFFERED FOR YEARS BECAUSE OF
00:52:08.99\00:52:15.00
THEIR GREED - BECAUSE OF THEIR
JEALOUSY - DID HE FORGIVE HIS
00:52:15.03\00:52:19.37
BROTHERS? DID
HE NOT ONLY FORGIVE
00:52:19.40\00:52:21.60
THEM, BUT DID HE FEED
THEM? AND DID HE BLESS THEM?
00:52:21.64\00:52:25.64
HE GAVE THEM THE
BEST OF THE LAND.
00:52:25.67\00:52:27.44
ISN'T THAT A TYPE OF CHRIST?
JUST BY THE GRACE OF JOSEPH.
00:52:27.48\00:52:33.08
HE COULD HAVE - HE COULD
HAVE GOTTEN EVEN WITH THEM.
00:52:33.11\00:52:36.95
AND YOU FIND ALL THROUGH THE OLD
TESTAMENT YOU SEE THESE EXAMPLES
00:52:36.99\00:52:40.02
- THESE STORIES - OF GRACE.
YOU CAN - WHEN ESTHER COMES
00:52:40.06\00:52:45.63
BEFORE KING AHASUERAS -
WHAT'S THE PENALTY IF YOU COME
00:52:45.66\00:52:48.63
BEFORE THE KING
UNINVITED? >>DEATH.
00:52:48.66\00:52:51.33
>>DEATH. BUT HE COMES AND
HE HOLDS OUT THE SCEPTER - SHE
00:52:51.37\00:52:54.50
TOUCHES IT - A SYMBOL
OF GRACE - UNMERITED FAVOR.
00:52:54.54\00:52:58.74
ALL THROUGH THE BIBLE, IN
THE OLD TESTAMENT - WHEN ABSALOM
00:52:58.77\00:53:04.45
KILLED HIS BROTHER AND HE CAME
BACK TO THE KINGDOM AND DAVID
00:53:04.48\00:53:07.72
FINALLY, HE EMBRACED HIM AND
FORGAVE HIM - ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF
00:53:07.75\00:53:12.99
GOD'S GRACE. YOU JUST GO ON AND
ON THROUGH THE OLD TESTAMENT.
00:53:13.02\00:53:18.09
CAN YOU THINK OF ANY?
OLD TESTAMENT EXAMPLES OF
00:53:18.13\00:53:21.03
SALVATION BY FAITH - IN
THE MULTITUDE OF SABBATH SCHOOL
00:53:21.06\00:53:27.24
MEMBERS THERE IS WISDOM.
COME ON, I DIDN'T COVER THEM
00:53:27.27\00:53:30.27
ALL. >>GIDEON?
00:53:30.31\00:53:32.24
>>GIDEON - OH, RAHAB - GIDEON,
YEAH, GOD JUST HAD MERCY ON HIM
00:53:32.27\00:53:38.21
AND - THROUGH FAITH IN GOD
THROUGH BLOWING THE TRUMPET.
00:53:38.25\00:53:41.45
RAHAB: ALL THOSE WHO WERE IN THE
HOUSE WITH THE SIGN OF RED - A
00:53:41.48\00:53:45.29
SYMBOL OF THE GRACE OF
GOD - WOULD BE FORGIVEN.
00:53:45.32\00:53:48.19
JOSHUA JUST SHOWED THEM MERCY.
OH, I GUESS SOMEONE COULD ARGUE
00:53:48.22\00:53:51.99
- YOU KNOW, IT'S
INTERESTING ABOUT RAHAB.
00:53:52.03\00:53:54.20
RAHAB'S THE ONE CHARACTER IN THE
BIBLE IT SAYS SHE WAS SAVED BY
00:53:54.20\00:53:56.56
FAITH, IN HEBREWS, AND
JAMES SAYS SHE'S SAVED BY WORKS.
00:53:56.60\00:54:01.77
DID YOU KNOW THAT? BUT
IT WAS DEFINITELY - HEBREWS
00:54:01.80\00:54:05.84
SAYS SHE WAS SAVED BY FAITH
IN THAT SHE BELIEVED THAT JOSHUA
00:54:05.87\00:54:08.48
- IN THE GOD OF JOSHUA -
AND SHE RECEIVED THE MESSENGERS.
00:54:08.51\00:54:12.18
ANYONE ELSE? >>ABEL.
00:54:12.21\00:54:14.68
>>I HEARD TWO.
WHAT? ADAM AND EVE WERE
00:54:14.72\00:54:17.85
SAVED BY GRACE.
THEY BROKE THE LAW.
00:54:17.89\00:54:19.89
THEY - GOD GAVE
THEM THE SKINS OF LAMBS.
00:54:19.92\00:54:22.69
THE LAMBS DIED TO
COVER THEIR NAKEDNESS.
00:54:22.72\00:54:25.16
IT WAS GRACE.
WHO ELSE DID I HEAR?
00:54:25.19\00:54:27.13
>>ABEL. >>ABEL. HE
WAS SAVED BY FAITH IN
00:54:27.13\00:54:30.40
THE BLOOD. THAT'S RIGHT.
WAY BACK THERE IN THE BEGINNING.
00:54:30.43\00:54:32.70
DID I HEAR ANOTHER ONE?
DANIEL? NOAH WAS SAVED BY GRACE.
00:54:32.73\00:54:37.97
NOAH FOUND GRACE - VERY
GOOD - IN THE EYES OF THE LORD.
00:54:38.01\00:54:40.58
SO THIS IS THE MAIN
POINT OF THIS LESSON.
00:54:40.61\00:54:42.48
I JUST THOUGHT WE'D TIE
IT OFF WITH YOU HELPING ME.
00:54:42.51\00:54:44.58
WERE THEY SAVED IN THE OLD
TESTAMENT BY WORKS OR WERE THEY
00:54:44.61\00:54:47.25
SAVED BY GRACE? >>GRACE.
00:54:47.28\00:54:49.42
>>WAS NOAH A JEW OR A GENTILE?
(LAUGHTER) HE WAS UNCIRCUMCISED.
00:54:49.45\00:54:55.59
HOW ABOUT ENOCH?
NOT CIRCUMCISED - AND
00:54:55.62\00:54:58.89
HE MADE IT TO
HEAVEN. YOU SEE WHAT PAUL WAS
00:54:58.93\00:55:00.40
SAYING TO THE GALATIANS?
HOW CAN YOU GO BACK TO THINKING
00:55:00.43\00:55:02.60
YOU'VE GOT TO BE
CIRCUMCISED TO BE SAVED?
00:55:02.63\00:55:04.40
LOOK AT THESE HEROES IN
THE BIBLE THAT - FROM THE OLD
00:55:04.43\00:55:07.07
TESTAMENT - THAT ARE GOING TO BE
IN HEAVEN - SOME ARE ALREADY IN
00:55:07.10\00:55:10.01
HEAVEN - THAT DIDN'T GO
THROUGH THESE CEREMONIAL LAWS.
00:55:10.04\00:55:14.78
AND SO, HE SAID, 'YOU'VE BEGUN
IN THE SPIRIT AND YOU'RE GETTING
00:55:14.81\00:55:17.05
DISTRACTED BY THE LAW.' THAT'S
WHY HE CALLED THEM FOOLISH
00:55:17.08\00:55:19.15
GALATIANS. ANYWAY,
HOPEFULLY WE'VE LEARNED
00:55:19.18\00:55:21.42
SOMETHING FROM TODAY'S LESSON.
I WANT TO REMIND OUR FRIENDS,
00:55:21.45\00:55:23.99
WE DO HAVE A FREE GIFT AND
WE'D LIKE YOU TO KNOW ABOUT THAT
00:55:24.02\00:55:27.86
GRACE AND THAT FAITH
AND SO WE'VE GOT A CLASSIC
00:55:27.89\00:55:30.29
BOOK BY JOE CREWS.
IT'S CALLED THREE STEPS TO
00:55:30.33\00:55:32.19

SEND IT TO YOU FOR FREE.
00:55:32.23\00:55:34.10
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS

MAKE SURE AND ASK FOR
OFFER #102 WHEN YOU CALL.
00:55:38.90\00:55:43.04
AND THE BOOK IS CALLED THREE
STEPS TO HEAVEN - READ IT AND

SHARE IT WITH A FRIEND.
GOD BLESS YOU, FRIENDS, WE'LL
00:55:45.54\00:55:47.61
LOOK FORWARD TO STUDYING HIS
WORD WITH YOU AGAIN NEXT WEEK.
00:55:47.64\00:55:52.51
>>LET'S FACE IT, IT'S NOT ALWAYS
EASY TO UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING
00:55:52.55\00:55:55.45
YOU READ IN THE BIBLE.
WITH OVER 700,000 WORDS
00:55:55.48\00:55:59.09
CONTAINED IN 66 BOOKS, THE BIBLE

>>FRIENDS, ONE OF THE AMAZING
THINGS THAT YOU'LL OFTEN FIND IN
00:56:38.56\00:56:40.73
THE SOUTH PACIFIC
ISLANDS, LIKE HERE ON FIJI,
00:56:40.76\00:56:43.53
IS THE VAIVAI PLANT.
NOW, IN NORTH AMERICA, IF YOU
00:56:43.57\00:56:46.27
WANT TO BUILD A FENCE YOU'VE GOT
TO GET FENCE POSTS AND THEN YOU
00:56:46.30\00:56:48.64
PUT THE WOODEN FENCE POSTS IN
THE GROUND AND THEN AFTER A FEW
00:56:48.67\00:56:51.91
YEARS THEY'RE GOING TO ROT
AND BREAK OFF, UNLESS THEY'RE
00:56:51.94\00:56:53.71
SPECIALLY TREATED. BUT
HERE, THEY'VE GOT THESE
00:56:53.74\00:56:56.31
TREES - THE VAIVAI TREE - THEY
CAN CUT THEM RIGHT OUT OF THE
00:56:56.34\00:56:59.31
WOODS, THEY'LL TAKE A STICK,
THEY STICK IT IN THE GROUND, AND
00:56:59.35\00:57:02.98
BECAUSE THEY HAVE SO MUCH RAIN
AND PRECIPITATION, IT BEGINS TO
00:57:03.02\00:57:06.25
SPROUT AND TURNS
INTO A LIVING FENCE POST.
00:57:06.29\00:57:08.96
IT MAKES UP ITS MIND THAT IT'S
GOING TO FLOURISH WHEREVER YOU
00:57:08.99\00:57:11.06
STICK IT, WHICH IS A
GOOD LESSON FOR YOU AND ME.
00:57:11.09\00:57:14.30
SO YOU MIGHT WONDER SOMETIMES
IF YOU'VE GOT A PURPOSE IN LIFE.
00:57:14.36\00:57:17.37
YOU MIGHT FEEL LIKE YOU'RE
GROWING SORT OF SPORADICALLY IN
00:57:17.40\00:57:19.60
EVERY DIRECTION, AND THEN ALONG
COMES THIS PERSON WHO CUTS YOU
00:57:19.63\00:57:22.67
DOWN AND CARRIES YOU OFF, HE
STICKS YOU IN THE GROUND BUT YOU
00:57:22.70\00:57:27.18
LOOK BACK AND
SAY, 'THERE WAS A PLAN.
00:57:27.21\00:57:29.61
THERE WAS A PURPOSE.' GOD KNOWS
HOW TO TEACH US HOW TO PROSPER
00:57:29.64\00:57:33.35
WHERE HE PLANTS US. YOU
MIGHT WONDER WHY THE LORD
00:57:33.38\00:57:36.05
HAS PUT YOU WHERE HE HAS IN
LIFE, BUT YOU CAN PUT DOWN ROOTS
00:57:36.08\00:57:39.29
AND YOU CAN GROW AND YOU CAN
SERVE A GREAT PURPOSE FOR GOD.
00:57:39.32\00:57:41.99
YOU KNOW, IT'S LIKE GOD SAYS IN
JEREMIAH CHAPTER 29, 'I KNOW THE
00:57:42.02\00:57:45.73
PLANS THAT I'VE GOT FOR YOU
TO GIVE YOU A FUTURE.' GOD HAS A
00:57:45.76\00:57:48.76
PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE, FRIENDS,
AND HE CAN HELP YOU TO PROSPER
00:57:48.80\00:57:51.57
AND GROW WHEREVER
YOU'RE PLANTED. (MUSIC)
