Well, thank you. Thank you for your warm welcome. It's lovely to be in fellowship with our brothers
0:08
and sisters in Jesus Christ here in this congregation and to renew that fellowship. I
0:14
thank the Lord for so many blessings received through my life, not least as a child growing up
0:21
in this congregation and through in Laxdale in the Sunday school there. We lift up our hearts
0:27
to the Lord in worship to praise his glorious name and we worship God with the words of Psalm 149
0:37
from the Scottish Psalter. Let's sing together Psalm 149 from the Scottish Psalter at the beginning
0:45
and the verses 1 to 4. The tune is Montrose as we sing, praise ye the Lord, unto him sing a new song
0:56
and his praise in sweet songs do ye raise. Let's rise and sing praise to our great God.
1:06
is he the Lord, unto him sing a new song and his praise in thee, that sent me all his praise.
1:36
in sweet songs do ye raise. Let Israel in peace make your joy, and to him praises sing. Let all that thy
2:06
the words of a body to sing the gospel is known for your greatest song forounding
2:08
and theesiom
2:20
be do ye raise. Let them and do his great hymp 57
2:36
With them with timbrel and with harb, His songs His praise advance.
2:51
For God doth pleasure take in those that His own people meet,
3:07
and He with His salvation the meek will beauty.
3:30
We draw near to our God in prayer. Let us pray.
3:34
It is sweet indeed, gracious Lord, to come to make melody in heart and in mind before the Lord.
3:49
We ask that we would be reminded constantly of the grace and the goodness that we have received from our faithful God, our Maker.
4:02
We ask that our worship will be characterized by the privilege of Christian joy.
4:12
Let Israel in His Maker joy, and to Him praises sing.
4:21
As we look around this world of war and of confusion and of tragedy,
4:30
as we see around us wickedness seeming to be out of control in so many places,
4:39
Lord, where is there to be found any source of comfort, any source of joy,
4:48
apart from eternal truth and eternal holiness, eternal beauty,
4:58
that which comes from beholding the face of God.
5:03
may we be still in the Lord's presence in this hour of worship tonight,
5:11
and may our hearts be prepared and made ready
5:15
for a Lord's day of blessings and of rest and of good things.
5:25
As we turn in these days around communion to the Gospel of John to read together,
5:33
and as we hear again the familiar story of our Saviour's obedience and humility and love,
5:44
give us ears to hear.
5:49
Give us understanding.
5:52
Increase our love for your holy child, Jesus.
5:58
Help us in our minds and our imaginations to see Him
6:05
and to adore Him,
6:09
to love Him,
6:11
and to rejoice with thanksgiving in all your works.
6:19
We come with the church through ages past
6:22
to worship God,
6:26
and we join our prayers and our praises
6:29
with the church that is in heaven around the throne.
6:33
Paul could pray,
6:37
leading the church in its prayer,
6:40
bowing the knee to the Father,
6:43
in whom the whole family,
6:45
in heaven
6:46
and on earth,
6:50
finds its name,
6:51
its identity,
6:53
and its source.
6:55
We pray to our Father,
6:59
but we do not yet see His glory fully.
7:03
But the church in glory
7:06
is bathed in light.
7:11
Our praises
7:12
and their praises
7:15
coming together
7:17
in Jesus
7:19
to the glory of the Father.
7:23
How wonderful.
7:25
Lord, bless the work of this congregation,
7:29
in this community,
7:32
and in its influence throughout the island
7:34
and further afield.
7:36
We thank you, Lord,
7:38
for missionary partnerships
7:39
that have been rich and rewarding
7:42
through decades.
7:44
and we ask that tonight,
7:48
as a church,
7:50
in our commitment to Jesus,
7:53
we would be concerned
7:54
for the care of the church
7:57
and of the saints,
8:00
but also for the welfare
8:02
of those who are not yet part of the church,
8:05
and for children
8:07
and young people
8:08
who have yet to
8:11
show covenant obedience
8:13
by an adult
8:16
and a maturing faith.
8:19
How we long
8:20
for the church of today
8:22
to be used of God
8:25
as a means
8:28
to sow the seed
8:30
for the church of tomorrow
8:32
and the latter days.
8:36
Take pleasure
8:37
in your people,
8:40
gracious Lord.
8:42
Take pleasure
8:43
in your own people
8:46
and with your salvation
8:49
make beautiful your people.
8:53
make mature
8:55
and fruitful
8:57
your people
8:58
so that your people's praises
9:01
will not be merely in form,
9:04
but with the whole heart,
9:07
with the whole mind,
9:11
leaning towards the Lord
9:12
and declaring his praises.
9:16
May we declare
9:18
our Savior Jesus
9:20
when we lift the cup of salvation
9:23
when we break
9:25
and share with one another
9:26
the bread that speaks
9:28
of his body
9:29
tomorrow.
9:31
May we proclaim
9:33
the Lord's death
9:34
until he comes.
9:38
And may the meek
9:39
be beautified
9:41
by the Spirit's work.
9:45
And may we eat
9:46
and drink
9:47
with each other
9:48
and with our Lord
9:51
as friends
9:53
and as the people
9:56
who know peace with God.
10:00
We pray that you would remember
10:02
this nation.
10:05
Even the king
10:06
is frail
10:08
and made of dust.
10:11
Send healing
10:12
and blessing
10:12
upon him
10:14
and his family.
10:16
and remember
10:18
those who govern
10:19
in Edinburgh
10:21
and in the
10:23
assemblies
10:24
and parliaments
10:25
of the United Kingdom
10:27
in the various
10:28
nations
10:29
and in the UK.
10:31
But most of all
10:33
we pray
10:34
for that kingdom
10:35
that is coming
10:36
and for that kingdom
10:39
that is growing
10:40
and for that kingdom
10:42
that will never,
10:43
never end.
10:44
the kingdom
10:46
of our Lord
10:47
and Saviour
10:48
Jesus Christ.
10:50
May the light
10:51
of his face
10:52
be turned
10:53
towards
10:54
his praying people
10:55
today
10:56
in this land
10:58
and in every land.
11:01
Keep us
11:02
and use us
11:04
and bless us
11:06
and grant to us
11:07
that for which
11:08
Jesus prayed
11:09
in the upper room.
11:13
Keep us united
11:14
and keep us
11:16
loving
11:16
our Lord
11:18
and one another
11:20
and keep us
11:22
as lovers
11:23
of your truth.
11:25
Remember those
11:26
who are suffering
11:27
and sick
11:28
who are known
11:29
to us
11:30
and who are
11:31
in our prayers.
11:32
Remember those
11:33
who join us
11:34
over the internet
11:35
and make
11:37
your servants
11:39
hear
11:39
ministering the word
11:42
in this town
11:43
and from this pulpit
11:44
fruitful
11:46
joyful
11:47
faithful
11:49
and thankful
11:51
that they have
11:53
seen the Lord
11:54
working mighty
11:56
things
11:57
to his glory.
12:00
Remember
12:00
your servants
12:02
here
12:02
and all
12:04
whom they love
12:04
and remember
12:06
us all
12:07
pardoning sin
12:09
for Jesus'
12:11
sake.
12:12
Amen.
12:14
I'm going to sing
12:16
a further psalm
12:17
from the Scottish Psalter
12:18
Psalm 73
12:19
Psalm 73
12:21
at verse 23
12:24
in the psalm
12:26
the tune is
12:27
Weatherby
12:28
if you're using
12:30
the books
12:30
Psalm 73
12:32
at verse 23
12:33
is on page
12:34
316
12:36
the psalmist
12:39
here is
12:40
disturbed
12:40
but the wicked
12:42
are
12:42
apparently
12:44
getting on
12:45
with life
12:46
without God
12:47
they do
12:48
their own
12:49
thing
12:49
it doesn't
12:51
seem to matter
12:52
and often
12:53
God's people
12:54
and even
12:55
God's king
12:56
can be
12:58
in the gutter
12:58
and bewildered
13:00
by providence
13:01
but to draw
13:03
near to God
13:04
and to worship
13:05
God
13:05
is to make
13:06
all things
13:07
clear
13:07
so we sing
13:09
from verse 23
13:11
to 26
13:12
to Weatherby
13:13
nevertheless
13:14
continually
13:16
O Lord
13:17
I am
13:18
with thee
13:20
let us stand
13:21
and sing
13:22
thou dost
13:44
behold
13:47
by thy
13:48
right
13:50
heart
13:51
and still
13:54
thou hold
13:56
us
13:57
near
13:58
now
14:00
with
14:02
thy
14:03
hands
14:04
still
14:05
while
14:06
I live
14:08
wilt
14:10
be
14:11
conduct
14:13
and
14:14
guide
14:15
and
14:17
took
14:18
thy
14:19
glory
14:21
afterward
14:24
receive
14:27
me
14:28
to
14:30
abide
14:32
O
14:34
Mah
14:35
Abayin
14:37
the
14:39
heavens
14:41
high
14:42
that
14:44
live
14:45
O
14:46
Lord
14:47
alone
14:49
and
14:51
in
14:52
the
14:53
air
14:54
will
14:55
my
14:56
desire
14:57
besides
14:59
me
15:00
there
15:01
is
15:02
come
15:03
my
15:04
flesh
15:05
and
15:06
heart
15:07
my
15:08
flesh
15:09
and
15:10
heart
15:11
thou
15:12
faint
15:14
and
15:15
fail
15:16
but
15:17
God
15:18
doth
15:20
fail
15:21
forever
15:22
for
15:23
of
15:24
my
15:25
heart
15:26
God
15:30
is
15:31
less
15:32
than
15:33
and
15:35
portion
15:37
forever
15:39
forever
15:49
we're turning to the
15:50
scriptures to the New Testament and to the gospel of John to chapter 19
15:56
in john 19 last evening if you were with us we read the opening verses of john 19 and we take
16:05
up the reading in the middle of verse 16 this evening to give you the setting the lord jesus
16:13
was with his disciples in the upper room on the thursday evening of the last week of his life
16:23
he broke bread with them he washed their feet judas left to betray him and wonderful teaching
16:34
was given in that upper room and he prayed for them as perhaps no man has ever prayed
16:42
in the history of the world and then they went out into the night and chapter 18 records his arrest
16:51
in the garden of gethsemane and the beginnings of his trial and now in chapter 19 the cross
17:02
draws near john 19 verse 16 so they took jesus
17:14
and he went out bearing his own cross to the place called the place of a skull which in aramaic is called
17:28
golgotha there they crucified him and within two others one on either side and jesus between them
17:39
pilate also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross it read jesus of nazareth the king of the jews
17:52
many of the jews read this inscription for the place where jesus for the place where jesus was crucified was
18:01
near the city and it was written in aramaic in latin and in greek so the chief priests of the jews said to pilate
18:12
do not write the king of the jews but rather this man said i am king of the jews
18:19
pilate pilate answered what i have written i have written when the soldiers had crucified jesus
18:33
they took his garments and divided them into four parts one part for each soldier also his tunic
18:42
but the tunic was seamless woven in one piece from top to bottom so they said to one another let us not
18:53
tear it but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be this was to fulfill the scripture which says they divided
19:07
my garments among them and for my clothing they cast lots so the soldiers did these things
19:21
but standing by the cross of jesus where his mother and his mother's sister mary the wife of clopas
19:30
and mary magdalene when jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby he said to his mother
19:40
woman behold your son then he said to the disciple behold your mother and from that hour
19:57
the disciple took her to his own house to his own home this is the holy and inspired word of god
20:08
may he bless to us the word and may it come alive for us before we study these verses together
20:19
we're going to sing again a psalm of the cross psalm 22 from sing psalms in sing psalms psalm 22 at verse 16
20:29
page 26 in the blue book psalm 22 at verse 16 the psalmist is persecuted and suffering
20:41
a pack of dogs encloses me their circle round me is complete i am beset by evil men and they have pierced
20:56
my hands and feet prophesying beyond whatever the psalmist experienced the horrors of the cross
21:07
the tunis maro will stand and sing verses 16 onwards
21:12
a pack of dogs encloses me their circle round me is complete
21:32
i am beset by evil men and they have pierced my hands and feet i count the number of my
21:57
my hands and feet i am beset by evil men and they have pierced my hands and feet i am beset by
22:03
the people they have pierced my hands and feet i am beset by the people they have pierced
22:07
they throw the dice to get my coat among themselves my clothes they share
22:13
and probably cover the dividing line of jade caman it will happenir
22:39
O Lord, save me from power of evil dogs, my precious life from cruel storm.
22:58
From menace of the lion's mouth, and from their fury setting me,
23:14
from peril of wild oxen's arms, he heard my guide and rescued me.
23:31
Brothers and sisters in Jesus, the story of the cross is a holy story,
23:53
and these chapters around the cross are holy ground.
23:59
Perhaps we could briefly pray.
24:03
May we receive, gracious Lord, the truth of your word in a fresh way,
24:13
in a way that brings certainty and conviction and Christian joy to each one of us.
24:25
May we see Jesus, show us Jesus in his beauty and in his service and humility.
24:39
To the glory of God the Father. Amen.
24:43
The word behold is a really beautiful word in the English language.
24:57
It's a word that invites us to stop, to look, to consider.
25:03
I know it sounds a little bit old-fashioned.
25:06
Behold.
25:08
But sometimes Bible translations are conservative in their use of language,
25:15
even their use of the English language.
25:19
And I think that was probably true even centuries ago, 400 years ago,
25:24
when Bible translations were being made.
25:27
Sometimes they were a little bit clunky and a little bit archaic when they were brand new.
25:34
Because they were trying to get a hold of the truth written in Hebrew, written in Greek,
25:42
that was itself reverent and presenting things to us
25:49
that are not always common or ordinary or everyday.
25:57
You cannot talk about Jesus and his cross without stopping,
26:06
pausing, thinking, looking.
26:11
And my problem and maybe your problem is that we're often so busy
26:19
that we just don't stop to think, to meditate, to look.
26:30
And our world and our culture is in such a hurry.
26:37
It doesn't want to look at the cross.
26:39
It finds God and the Bible an embarrassment.
26:48
You can talk about spirituality.
26:51
You can talk about culture.
26:53
You can talk about belief.
26:56
But if it becomes too focused on the story of the Scripture,
27:04
we want to look the other way.
27:07
That is sad.
27:09
What do we have that invites us to look and to behold in John's Gospel
27:18
and in the account of the cross in John?
27:24
It's an eyewitness account.
27:26
I don't doubt that John was an old man when he wrote this Gospel.
27:34
And that probably at least three decades and maybe more had passed
27:41
from the events he was talking about
27:44
and coming to write them down.
27:47
John was an old man when he died.
27:55
But he talks about the cross
27:57
in the way someone speaks about an event that is absolutely life-changing.
28:05
A day he is never going to forget.
28:10
And it's as if he's back there seeing things,
28:17
hearing things.
28:19
The sights and the smells of that day must have been appalling.
28:25
There were others that he loved there.
28:29
The family of Jesus was there.
28:33
The enemies were there.
28:37
But this reads as a first-hand account
28:42
from a man who has had a lifetime to think about what he saw.
28:49
Last night, if you were here,
28:55
we were invited looking at the way Pilate treated Jesus
29:00
to behold the man,
29:03
to behold the king.
29:06
What do we think of the prisoner
29:08
who's getting this unjust trial?
29:13
Tonight,
29:15
behold the son
29:17
Mary's son
29:21
suffering and dying.
29:24
Behold the son,
29:27
God's son
29:29
suffering and dying.
29:34
And to behold
29:35
the shame
29:38
of it all.
29:42
The shame
29:43
that John remembers
29:46
years
29:47
afterwards.
29:49
In chapter 18
29:50
and at verse 15,
29:53
you hear the language
29:55
of the eyewitness.
29:58
Simon Peter followed Jesus
29:59
and so did another disciple.
30:02
Since that disciple
30:03
was known to the high priest,
30:05
he entered with Jesus
30:07
into the court of the high priest.
30:09
And he was able to get Peter in as well.
30:11
Who is this anonymous disciple
30:15
who's being referred to in chapter 18?
30:18
Surely it's John himself.
30:20
He knows so much about what happened.
30:24
And Peter wasn't there for the whole time.
30:27
Peter went out and wept bitterly,
30:29
having denied his Lord three times
30:31
in the courtyard of the high priest.
30:33
But the disciple
30:36
who got him in
30:37
is the disciple
30:38
who doesn't like
30:39
to talk about himself
30:40
too much in this gospel.
30:42
He always finds a way
30:44
to say the disciple.
30:46
The disciple who Jesus loved.
30:49
He's talking about himself
30:52
in chapter 18
30:54
in all likelihood.
30:55
And here in chapter 19
30:59
from verse 16 onwards,
31:02
again on the way to the cross,
31:05
you have an eyewitness account.
31:11
He is the disciple
31:13
whom Jesus loved,
31:16
who from that hour,
31:18
the hour of the death of Jesus,
31:21
would take Mary
31:23
and be responsible for her
31:28
until she died.
31:32
Jesus was handing over
31:35
the care of his beloved mother
31:38
to his most well-beloved follower.
31:44
Woman,
31:46
behold your son.
31:50
Son,
31:51
behold
31:54
your mother.
31:58
Two things to notice this evening.
32:01
First of all,
32:02
the son
32:02
is put to shame.
32:07
The son
32:09
is put to shame.
32:14
In this eyewitness account,
32:17
what does John want you
32:19
to see?
32:21
In verse 5,
32:24
Pilate says,
32:25
behold the man.
32:26
And that word,
32:27
behold,
32:29
is a little bit like
32:30
ringing a bell.
32:32
Many key words
32:34
run through
32:35
the gospel of John.
32:37
Many
32:37
symbolical
32:38
incidents
32:40
keep being repeated.
32:41
There are contrasts
32:42
between, say,
32:43
light and darkness
32:44
in this gospel.
32:45
And so,
32:45
when you come across
32:46
certain words,
32:48
you look for connections.
32:50
connections.
32:50
And this word,
32:51
behold,
32:53
on the lips of Pilate
32:55
in verse 5,
32:57
is a very important word
32:59
in the first chapter
33:02
of this gospel.
33:04
it's John the Baptist,
33:07
the one witnessing
33:09
on the side
33:10
of the truth
33:10
and preparing
33:11
the way
33:12
for the Messiah
33:13
who sees Jesus
33:15
and in chapter 1
33:16
declares
33:18
in verse 29
33:19
and verse 36
33:20
of chapter 1,
33:22
behold
33:22
the Lamb
33:24
of God
33:25
who takes away
33:28
the sins
33:30
of the world.
33:30
in chapter 12,
33:35
we have a quotation
33:36
on Palm Sunday
33:38
on the day
33:39
that Jesus
33:40
enters his city
33:41
as a meek
33:42
and lowly king
33:43
to great acclamation
33:45
from the crowds
33:47
and they seem
33:49
to want to make
33:49
a king of him
33:50
and they seem
33:52
to love him.
33:53
Five days later,
33:54
they will be saying,
33:56
kill him,
33:56
away with him,
33:57
crucify him,
33:58
release Barabbas
33:59
to us,
33:59
but on Sunday
34:01
before the cross,
34:03
they're treating him
34:05
like the Messiah
34:07
and he's riding
34:09
on a donkey,
34:11
on a colt,
34:12
the foal of a donkey
34:13
and in John 12
34:15
verse 15 and 16
34:17
there is an echo
34:19
of the prophecy
34:20
of Zechariah,
34:22
behold your king
34:23
is coming,
34:24
sitting on a donkey's colt,
34:27
but the comment
34:29
of the writer
34:30
in John 12
34:32
is that at the time
34:34
they failed
34:36
to see Jesus
34:38
as the fulfillment
34:41
of all the promises
34:42
about the coming king.
34:44
At the time
34:45
they did not understand
34:49
but we're told
34:51
chapter 12 verse 16
34:52
when Jesus was glorified
34:55
then they remembered
34:57
that these things
34:59
had been written
35:00
about him.
35:03
And what had the prophet said?
35:05
Your king
35:07
is coming to you
35:09
but he's coming
35:12
meekly
35:13
and in peace
35:16
and not to wage war.
35:19
He's coming to die.
35:21
It was after
35:24
he was glorified
35:25
that the scriptures
35:27
about him
35:28
made sense.
35:31
But before
35:32
they could see him
35:33
in his glory
35:34
and understand him
35:35
he had to taste
35:39
shame.
35:43
And the beholds
35:44
start to come
35:46
thick and fast
35:48
in our reading
35:49
tonight.
35:51
For in John 19
35:52
we have
35:53
behold
35:54
in verse
35:56
14
35:57
it was about
35:59
the sixth hour
36:00
so
36:01
nobody wore a watch
36:02
in those days
36:03
but sixth hour
36:04
is halfway through
36:05
the day
36:06
twelve hours
36:07
in the day.
36:09
So somewhere
36:10
in the middle
36:10
of the day
36:11
Jesus is on the cross.
36:13
The other gospels
36:15
probably would move
36:16
that up a bit earlier
36:18
more towards
36:19
the morning
36:19
than towards
36:20
the midday
36:21
but these are not
36:22
supposed to be
36:23
specific time markers.
36:26
It was about
36:27
bright
36:30
full
36:31
sunlight
36:32
midday
36:34
when they put him
36:36
on the cross.
36:37
Behold
36:37
your
36:39
king
36:41
on a cross.
36:44
some king
36:47
on a cross.
36:51
And then
36:52
you have
36:52
behold
36:52
in verse 26
36:54
and in verse 27
36:55
and we're supposed
36:56
to remember
36:57
the behold
36:58
in chapter 1
36:59
I think.
37:00
Look
37:00
the Lamb of God
37:01
taking away
37:02
the sin of the world.
37:03
Look
37:03
the king
37:04
on a cross
37:05
taking away
37:06
the sin of the world.
37:08
And in verse 26
37:09
verse 27
37:10
woman
37:11
behold
37:11
your son.
37:14
your son
37:16
is dying.
37:19
So from now on
37:20
John will be
37:21
your son.
37:23
John
37:24
behold
37:25
your mother.
37:27
I'm dying.
37:29
From now on
37:30
Mary will be
37:31
your care.
37:34
The son
37:35
tasting death
37:38
tasting pain
37:40
tasting rejection
37:41
being the Lamb
37:43
of God
37:44
what does
37:46
the writer
37:47
want you to see?
37:50
Shame.
37:53
Judgment.
37:56
The wrath
37:56
of God
37:57
on this man.
38:00
I think
38:03
the way
38:04
I've been
38:04
conditioned
38:05
to think
38:06
and the way
38:07
the church
38:08
in the West
38:09
has presented
38:11
the cross
38:12
from the time
38:13
of the Reformation
38:14
onwards
38:15
the way
38:16
we've tended
38:17
to talk
38:18
about the cross
38:19
think about it
38:20
disciple
38:21
our children
38:22
preach about it
38:23
we have tended
38:24
to focus
38:25
quite rightly
38:27
on how
38:29
the cross
38:30
answers the
38:32
problem
38:32
of guilt
38:33
before God
38:35
and removes
38:36
the reality
38:37
of sin
38:38
before God
38:40
sin is a
38:43
real problem
38:44
there is a
38:44
real debt
38:45
and the cross
38:46
deals with it
38:47
and solves it
38:48
and the Reformation
38:49
was about
38:50
recovering a
38:51
biblical idea
38:53
of how the
38:54
death of Jesus
38:55
saves people
38:56
by dealing
38:57
with our
38:58
sin
38:59
one sacrifice
39:01
dealing with
39:03
guilt
39:03
justifying
39:05
sinners
39:05
in a
39:07
righteous
39:07
way
39:08
but there's
39:10
an aspect
39:11
of the work
39:12
of Jesus
39:13
on the cross
39:13
that the
39:14
early church
39:16
seemed to
39:16
understand
39:17
that the
39:18
church in
39:18
the first
39:19
few centuries
39:20
seemed to
39:20
understand
39:21
that I
39:22
don't think
39:23
we've been
39:24
so good at
39:24
holding on
39:25
to
39:25
in the
39:28
last few
39:28
centuries
39:29
certainly
39:31
in Europe
39:32
and in
39:33
the West
39:34
and that
39:37
is not so
39:38
much dealing
39:39
with
39:39
objective
39:40
guilt
39:41
but dealing
39:44
with the
39:45
consequences
39:46
of guilt
39:47
on our
39:49
minds
39:49
and on
39:50
our hearts
39:51
what we
39:53
could call
39:54
shame
39:56
shame
39:58
and guilt
39:59
are obviously
40:00
related
40:01
they're obviously
40:01
connected
40:02
and guilt
40:03
should make
40:04
you feel
40:05
ashamed
40:06
if you really
40:07
are guilty
40:07
naturally
40:09
you would
40:09
expect to
40:10
feel shame
40:11
but what I
40:13
want to say
40:14
to you
40:14
is that in
40:15
the world
40:15
that Jesus
40:16
lived in
40:17
in that
40:19
ancient
40:19
world
40:20
people cared
40:22
as much
40:23
about
40:24
shame
40:25
loss of
40:28
dignity
40:28
loss of
40:29
glory
40:29
loss of
40:30
name
40:31
loss of
40:32
face
40:32
they cared
40:33
as much
40:33
about it
40:34
as they
40:35
cared about
40:36
issues of
40:37
truth
40:38
I'm not
40:42
going to
40:42
play down
40:42
issues of
40:43
truth
40:43
sin
40:45
is sin
40:46
guilt
40:46
is guilt
40:47
and we
40:48
should care
40:49
about these
40:49
facts
40:50
but while
40:51
we care
40:52
about these
40:52
facts
40:53
we should
40:55
also care
40:56
about
40:57
what these
40:58
facts
40:59
mean
41:00
for how
41:01
people
41:02
feel
41:03
and how
41:04
they relate
41:05
to other
41:06
people
41:07
and how
41:07
they relate
41:08
to God
41:09
because in
41:11
the ancient
41:11
world their
41:12
culture was
41:13
much more
41:14
a culture
41:16
of shame
41:18
and honour
41:20
so if I
41:26
swear
41:28
that's a
41:31
sin
41:31
if I
41:35
swear
41:36
in front
41:38
of my
41:40
grandmother
41:41
or my
41:41
mother
41:42
or a
41:42
four year
41:43
old
41:43
child
41:44
that's
41:47
still a
41:48
sin
41:48
but it's
41:50
also a
41:51
shame
41:52
it's a
41:56
disgrace
41:57
it's a
41:59
dishonour
42:01
and
42:03
the
42:04
Bible
42:05
wants you
42:06
to look
42:06
at the
42:07
cross
42:07
and see
42:10
that Jesus
42:11
carries
42:12
guilt
42:13
and he
42:15
pays for
42:16
it
42:16
and he
42:16
answers for
42:17
it
42:17
but he
42:18
also
42:18
experiences
42:20
rejection
42:22
and dishonour
42:24
and disgrace
42:25
and mocking
42:26
and shame
42:27
and that's
42:30
part of the
42:31
good news
42:31
of the
42:32
gospel
42:32
because we
42:33
live in a
42:34
world where
42:35
people
42:36
sometimes
42:37
rightly
42:38
feel shame
42:40
and sometimes
42:41
wrongly
42:42
are drowning
42:43
in shame
42:44
when objective
42:46
truth says
42:47
you are a
42:48
child of God
42:49
you have peace
42:50
with God
42:50
you have
42:51
been forgiven
42:52
Jesus has
42:53
died for
42:53
your sins
42:54
he has
42:54
paid for
42:55
your sins
42:55
and still
42:56
whether it's
42:58
the culture
42:59
you grew up
43:00
in
43:00
the home
43:01
you grew up
43:01
in
43:02
the way
43:02
you're wired
43:03
yourself
43:04
or people
43:05
around you
43:06
or the
43:07
work of
43:08
Satan
43:08
you believe
43:10
you are
43:10
worthless
43:11
you believe
43:13
you are
43:13
unloved
43:14
you believe
43:15
you are
43:16
rubbish
43:16
you are
43:19
ashamed
43:19
now the
43:22
cross
43:23
deals with
43:25
both
43:25
sin
43:26
guilt
43:27
and
43:28
shame
43:30
Hebrews 12
43:32
begins
43:34
let us run
43:35
with perseverance
43:36
the race
43:37
marked out
43:38
for us
43:38
fixing our
43:40
eyes on
43:42
Jesus
43:42
the pioneer
43:44
and
43:45
perfecter
43:47
of faith
43:47
for the
43:49
joy set
43:50
before him
43:51
he endured
43:52
the cross
43:52
scorning
43:54
its
43:55
shame
43:57
and
43:58
sat down
43:59
at the
44:01
right hand
44:02
of the
44:03
throne
44:04
of God
44:06
thank
44:09
the Lord
44:11
Jesus
44:11
Christ
44:12
that
44:14
God's
44:14
Son
44:15
was put
44:17
to shame
44:18
for your
44:20
salvation
44:21
and
44:23
his
44:23
disgrace
44:24
is
44:26
the
44:27
answer
44:27
to
44:29
any
44:29
shame
44:30
that is
44:31
crushing
44:32
you
44:32
today
44:34
that's
44:36
the first
44:37
thing
44:37
the Son
44:38
is put
44:38
to shame
44:39
the second
44:40
thing that
44:41
we have
44:41
here
44:42
is an
44:42
invitation
44:43
through the
44:44
gospel
44:45
to nail
44:46
your
44:47
shame
44:48
to the
44:50
tree
44:50
to nail
44:52
it
44:53
to his
44:54
cross
44:55
to his
44:57
tree
44:57
why do I
45:00
labor this
45:01
point about
45:02
shame
45:03
well
45:05
as the
45:08
soldiers
45:09
gamble over
45:10
his clothes
45:11
it
45:13
dawns
45:14
on us
45:14
that
45:17
Jesus
45:17
who was
45:18
forced to
45:19
carry
45:19
his
45:20
cross
45:21
probably
45:23
just the
45:23
beam across
45:24
his shoulders
45:25
to the
45:26
place of
45:27
execution
45:27
he was
45:30
stripped
45:31
naked
45:32
before he
45:34
was nailed
45:35
to the
45:35
cross
45:36
to be
45:40
in pain
45:41
and to
45:42
be mocked
45:43
and to
45:43
be facing
45:44
death in
45:45
the next
45:45
few hours
45:46
or minutes
45:47
is bad
45:48
don't you
45:51
think to
45:52
face all
45:52
that
45:53
absolutely
45:55
naked
45:56
is even
45:57
worse
45:58
in terms
46:00
of shame
46:01
there's
46:05
something that
46:06
Don Carson
46:06
says in
46:07
his writings
46:08
about the
46:08
cross and
46:09
on John's
46:10
gospel that
46:10
is worth
46:11
quoting
46:12
Carson
46:12
says in
46:13
the ancient
46:13
world this
46:14
most terrible
46:15
of punishments
46:16
is always
46:17
associated
46:18
with shame
46:19
and
46:21
horror
46:22
it is
46:24
predicted of
46:25
course in
46:26
prophecy in
46:27
the Old
46:27
Testament in
46:28
scriptures like
46:29
Psalm 22
46:30
which we
46:31
sang from
46:32
a few
46:32
minutes ago
46:33
a thousand
46:34
years before
46:35
Jesus was
46:36
placed on
46:37
the cross
46:37
in fulfillment
46:39
David had
46:41
tasted shame
46:42
and David
46:44
understood
46:45
that God
46:47
and God
46:47
alone can
46:48
lift shame
46:50
from the
46:51
shoulders of
46:51
his people
46:52
but how
46:54
how would
46:55
God lift
46:56
shame
46:57
from his
46:58
people
46:59
how would
47:00
he do
47:00
it
47:01
if people
47:03
are oppressing
47:04
us by
47:05
trying to
47:05
give us
47:06
inappropriate
47:07
shame
47:07
maybe
47:09
legalism
47:10
sometimes
47:10
tries to
47:11
do that
47:12
rules that
47:13
don't come
47:13
with any
47:14
good sense
47:15
and they
47:16
don't come
47:16
with the
47:17
word of
47:18
God behind
47:18
them
47:19
expectations
47:20
that are
47:21
beyond
47:22
human
47:22
ability
47:23
Jesus
47:26
met people
47:26
like that
47:27
the Pharisees
47:28
of old
47:28
were experts
47:29
at spreading
47:30
illegitimate
47:31
shame
47:32
are you
47:35
washing your
47:35
hands the
47:36
right way
47:37
when your
47:38
disciples feed
47:39
themselves in
47:40
the fields
47:40
with the
47:41
heads of
47:42
the corn
47:44
are they
47:44
breaking the
47:45
Sabbath
47:46
it's
47:50
nonsense
47:50
of course
47:51
but I'm
47:54
sure if
47:54
you are
47:55
accused
47:56
of
47:57
breaking
47:58
some
47:58
man-made
47:59
taboo
48:00
even if
48:01
you know
48:02
with your
48:02
head
48:03
that's
48:05
ridiculous
48:05
it's very
48:07
hard not
48:08
to feel
48:08
shame
48:09
we are
48:11
experts
48:12
we humans
48:13
at ignoring
48:14
real sin
48:15
and things
48:16
that stink
48:16
before God
48:17
and making
48:18
a great
48:18
fuss about
48:19
things that
48:19
don't matter
48:20
well we
48:22
need to
48:23
repent
48:23
of that
48:24
and nail
48:26
it to
48:27
his cross
48:28
and we
48:30
need to
48:30
care about
48:31
real holiness
48:32
and God's
48:33
glory
48:34
and God's
48:35
name
48:35
and the
48:36
great name
48:37
of God
48:37
being lifted
48:38
up high
48:39
where it is
48:40
not known
48:41
or where it's
48:42
lying in the
48:42
gutter
48:43
and not
48:45
just care
48:46
about my
48:47
name
48:48
or your
48:49
name
48:49
or the
48:50
things that
48:51
seem
48:52
more important
48:54
in my
48:58
kitchen
48:58
and probably
49:00
in yours
49:01
there is
49:03
a smoke
49:04
detector
49:05
nowadays
49:07
these things
49:07
are
49:08
very clever
49:09
they're often
49:11
wired into
49:11
the mains
49:12
or they're
49:13
linked to
49:13
other smoke
49:15
detectors
49:15
and carbon
49:16
monoxide detectors
49:17
in the
49:18
house
49:18
and they
49:20
make a racket
49:21
if they go
49:22
off
49:22
so if you
49:23
burn your
49:23
breakfast
49:24
burn your
49:24
toast
49:25
the whole
49:26
street knows
49:27
about it
49:27
and you
49:29
probably have
49:30
been like me
49:30
many a time
49:31
standing on a
49:32
kitchen chair
49:33
waving a
49:34
copy of a
49:35
magazine or
49:36
something
49:36
furiously
49:37
trying to get
49:38
fresh air
49:39
at one of
49:40
these detectors
49:41
that has taken
49:42
a dislike
49:43
to the way
49:44
you made
49:45
the breakfast
49:46
these machines
49:50
are giving
49:53
a warning
49:53
and often
49:56
it's a
49:57
piercing
49:57
warning
49:58
and God
50:02
gave us
50:03
shame
50:04
to help
50:10
us
50:11
to hear
50:14
the warning
50:15
so that
50:17
when the
50:18
warning of
50:18
shame
50:19
goes off
50:20
like an
50:20
alarm
50:21
it says
50:25
to us
50:25
am I
50:29
dishonoring
50:30
God
50:31
what can I
50:35
do about
50:36
it
50:36
am I
50:38
drifting
50:39
into sin
50:40
what can I
50:41
do about
50:41
it
50:42
am I
50:43
heading
50:43
away
50:44
from joy
50:45
and glory
50:46
and salvation
50:47
and towards
50:48
the jaws
50:49
of death
50:50
and hell
50:50
am I
50:51
pleasing
50:51
God
50:52
or pleasing
50:53
Satan
50:53
and sometimes
50:55
the alarm
50:56
is blaring
50:56
and there
50:57
is no
50:58
fire
50:58
because our
51:00
heart
51:01
and mind
51:02
has gone
51:03
wrong
51:04
and we're
51:06
feeling shame
51:07
when we
51:08
shouldn't
51:09
I
51:13
could never
51:14
sit at the
51:15
Lord's
51:15
table
51:15
because
51:16
well
51:17
whatever
51:18
comes next
51:18
in the
51:19
sentence
51:19
is rubbish
51:23
if you
51:26
have been
51:26
forgiven
51:27
your sins
51:28
because of
51:30
Christ
51:30
and his
51:31
cross
51:31
if you
51:34
have confessed
51:35
your sins
51:36
then the
51:37
blood of
51:37
Jesus
51:37
Christ
51:38
God's
51:38
son
51:39
cleanses
51:41
us
51:41
from all
51:43
sin
51:43
and if the
51:45
devil
51:45
has caused
51:46
the alarm
51:47
to start
51:48
sounding
51:48
of shame
51:49
we check
51:52
is this
51:53
alarm
51:53
right
51:54
or is it
51:56
a false
51:56
alarm
51:57
but in
51:58
either
51:59
case
52:00
we flee
52:03
to the
52:03
cross
52:03
of Jesus
52:04
and if
52:06
fear
52:07
or guilt
52:08
or shame
52:09
is illegitimate
52:11
we speak
52:12
to Jesus
52:13
about it
52:14
and we
52:14
say I
52:14
feel so
52:15
weak
52:15
I feel
52:16
so useless
52:17
I feel
52:17
such shame
52:18
help me
52:21
to nail
52:23
it to
52:24
your tree
52:24
and if
52:26
we discover
52:27
that the
52:27
alarm is
52:28
quite right
52:29
to be going
52:29
off
52:30
and that
52:30
we are
52:31
a terrible
52:32
woman
52:32
a terrible
52:33
man
52:33
a wicked
52:34
woman
52:35
a wicked
52:35
man
52:36
then the
52:39
gospel is
52:40
for us
52:41
and the
52:44
gospel
52:44
is the
52:45
gospel of
52:46
John chapter
52:47
1
52:47
behold the
52:48
Lamb of
52:48
God
52:49
who takes
52:50
away the
52:51
sins of
52:51
the world
52:52
and the
52:54
gospel is
52:54
the gospel
52:55
where the
52:56
grain of
52:56
wheat falls
52:57
into the
52:58
ground
52:58
and it
52:58
dies
52:59
and that
53:00
way there's
53:01
fruit
53:01
and you
53:02
are the
53:02
fruit
53:02
he dies
53:04
so that
53:05
you will
53:05
be fruitful
53:06
not held
53:07
by guilt
53:07
not held
53:08
by shame
53:09
but because
53:10
of Christ
53:11
going forward
53:12
in the life
53:13
of faith
53:13
going forward
53:14
in Christian
53:15
growth
53:15
going forward
53:17
to live
53:18
for the
53:18
glory of
53:19
God
53:20
for most
53:23
of our
53:24
lives
53:24
we probably
53:25
have not
53:26
lived
53:27
in a
53:30
shame
53:30
kind of
53:31
culture
53:32
shame
53:33
on our
53:33
culture
53:34
like
53:34
India
53:35
or Japan
53:36
or much
53:38
of East
53:38
Asia
53:39
is a
53:39
shame
53:40
kind of
53:41
culture
53:42
you
53:42
you know
53:44
even Christians
53:45
in in
53:46
Southeast Asia
53:47
will often
53:47
really struggle
53:48
to be honest
53:49
with each
53:50
other
53:50
about a
53:52
problem
53:53
they'll
53:54
struggle
53:55
to speak
53:56
honestly
53:56
and say
53:57
that's
53:58
a root
53:59
of bitterness
54:00
that's
54:00
caused
54:01
offence
54:01
we need
54:02
to discuss
54:03
this
54:04
sort it
54:05
out
54:05
weep
54:05
over it
54:06
and then
54:07
make up
54:07
and love
54:08
one another
54:09
and move
54:09
forward
54:09
in Asia
54:11
very often
54:11
Christians
54:12
they don't
54:12
do that
54:13
because
54:13
their culture
54:14
says
54:14
you can't
54:16
be embarrassed
54:17
and you can't
54:18
embarrass
54:18
anybody else
54:19
so we'll
54:20
just ignore
54:20
it
54:21
and avoid
54:22
each other
54:22
for the rest
54:23
of our lives
54:23
that is not
54:26
the gospel
54:26
way
54:27
the gospel
54:29
way
54:30
is to go
54:31
to the cross
54:32
with guilt
54:34
and
54:36
to go
54:36
to the cross
54:37
with shame
54:39
legitimate
54:41
or illegitimate
54:43
shame
54:43
it needs
54:45
to be nailed
54:46
to the tree
54:46
for he
54:48
tasted
54:49
shame
54:50
and death
54:51
to take
54:54
that bitter
54:54
taste
54:55
away
54:56
from his
54:57
people
54:58
he does
55:00
not want
55:01
you
55:01
burdened
55:03
by shame
55:03
paralyzed
55:05
by the
55:05
past
55:06
if you
55:08
are
55:08
part of
55:10
this modern
55:10
world
55:11
of technology
55:12
and social
55:12
media
55:13
then
55:14
it is
55:15
doubly
55:16
hard
55:16
for us
55:17
today
55:17
to avoid
55:19
the idea
55:20
that everybody
55:21
else has a
55:22
wonderful life
55:23
and a rosy
55:24
life
55:24
and they're
55:26
all doing
55:27
wonderful things
55:28
and we
55:29
may feel
55:30
that that's
55:31
not
55:32
us
55:33
and it's
55:35
very easy
55:36
in this
55:37
modern age
55:38
to believe
55:39
a lie
55:40
or to
55:42
spread a
55:42
lie
55:43
or to
55:44
tell a
55:45
lie
55:45
using
55:47
things like
55:48
Instagram
55:49
or Facebook
55:51
the cross
55:55
says
55:56
if these
55:58
things are
55:58
a problem
55:59
if these
56:00
things are
56:01
holding you
56:02
back
56:02
spiritually
56:03
from maturity
56:05
and peace
56:06
and love
56:07
and unity
56:08
with your
56:08
family
56:09
or with your
56:10
brothers and
56:10
sisters in the
56:11
Christian family
56:12
there's a
56:13
cross
56:13
take your
56:17
use of
56:18
time
56:18
and nail it
56:21
to the tree
56:21
take your
56:22
use of
56:23
social media
56:25
and nail it
56:25
to the tree
56:26
take your
56:27
use of
56:28
gossip
56:29
rumor
56:30
nail it
56:31
to the
56:32
tree
56:33
I heard a
56:36
testimony
56:36
about a
56:37
year ago
56:37
from a
56:38
lady
56:39
who came
56:41
forward
56:41
having lived
56:43
with shame
56:44
over a
56:46
serious
56:46
thing
56:47
from years
56:49
before
56:49
a thing
56:51
she regretted
56:52
and a thing
56:52
she was
56:53
forgiven for
56:54
but a thing
56:55
that was
56:55
many decades
56:57
in her
56:58
past
56:58
and yet
57:00
it had
57:00
held her
57:00
back for
57:01
such a
57:02
long time
57:03
and it
57:05
was the
57:06
gospel
57:07
Jesus
57:09
and his
57:10
cross
57:10
that enabled
57:12
her
57:13
to just
57:14
tell her
57:15
story
57:16
and by
57:18
taking a
57:18
little step
57:19
of faith
57:20
and commitment
57:22
and getting
57:23
a little
57:23
more involved
57:24
in the
57:24
life of
57:25
the local
57:25
church
57:26
now serving
57:27
so well
57:28
being a
57:29
blessing to
57:29
others
57:30
being an
57:30
encourager to
57:31
others
57:32
because what
57:33
happened to
57:33
that shame
57:34
that Satan
57:35
was really
57:36
happy for
57:38
her to live
57:38
under for
57:39
for 30
57:40
years
57:40
well it's
57:41
gone
57:42
Jesus
57:44
took it
57:46
Pilate put
57:48
a notice
57:49
above the
57:49
head of
57:50
the Lord
57:50
Jesus
57:51
in Aramaic
57:53
the language
57:53
of the
57:54
common
57:54
people
57:54
in Latin
57:56
the language
57:57
of the
57:57
authorities
57:58
of the
57:58
Roman Empire
57:59
and in
58:01
Greek
58:01
the common
58:02
language spoken
58:03
all around
58:04
the world
58:04
this is the
58:06
king of
58:06
the Jews
58:07
why did
58:11
he write
58:11
it
58:12
well
58:15
Pilate
58:16
had been
58:17
ashamed
58:17
and embarrassed
58:18
by Caiaphas
58:19
and his
58:20
chums
58:20
and he
58:22
I think
58:23
was trying
58:23
to annoy
58:24
the Jews
58:24
and mock
58:25
Jesus
58:26
and mock
58:27
those who
58:27
had Jesus
58:28
crucified
58:29
there's the
58:30
claim
58:30
there's your
58:30
king
58:31
no I won't
58:32
change the
58:32
notice
58:33
it's part
58:34
of shaming
58:35
shaming
58:36
everyone
58:37
but you
58:39
know what
58:39
he was
58:42
the king
58:42
he is
58:44
the king
58:44
and because
58:47
the king
58:47
died on
58:48
that cross
58:49
shame
58:51
is
58:53
gone
58:54
we have
58:59
a young
58:59
lad
59:00
in our
59:01
congregation
59:01
who was
59:03
just converted
59:04
about
59:05
last
59:06
summer
59:07
from
59:08
atheism
59:08
nobody
59:09
in his
59:10
family
59:10
is a
59:10
Christian
59:11
somebody
59:13
in his
59:13
high school
59:14
challenged
59:15
his
59:16
atheism
59:16
have you
59:17
really
59:18
looked
59:18
into
59:18
this
59:19
and he
59:20
was
59:20
honest
59:21
enough
59:22
to
59:23
acknowledge
59:24
that he
59:24
hadn't
59:25
and so
59:25
he did
59:26
his
59:26
research
59:26
and he
59:27
went to
59:28
google
59:28
and he
59:29
found out
59:29
a bit
59:30
about the
59:30
bible
59:30
and christianity
59:31
and he
59:32
started to
59:32
read
59:32
and he
59:33
started to
59:33
read good
59:34
things
59:34
and god
59:37
saved him
59:38
and brought
59:41
him into
59:42
fellowship
59:42
with a
59:43
