We're going to begin our worship this evening singing to God's praise in Psalm 95.
0:07
! This is in Sing Psalms, page 126 in the Blue Psalm book.
0:23
Sing the first three stanzas.
0:25
So come, let us joyfully sing to the Lord, to the rock of salvation.
0:29
Let us raise our voice.
0:30
Let us come before him expressing our thanks.
0:33
Let us with loud singing praise him and rejoice.
0:38
I will sing to verse 7 to God's praise.
0:41
Come, let us joyfully sing to the Lord.
0:43
O come, let us joyfully sing to the Lord, to the rock of salvation.
1:05
Let us raise our voice.
1:09
Let us come before him expressing our thanks.
1:19
Let us with loud singing praise him and rejoice.
1:28
The Lord is the great God, King over all gods.
1:39
The earth's deepest places he holds in his hand.
1:49
The heights of the mountains belong to the Lord.
1:59
The oceans are his hand, he formed the dry land.
2:08
Come, let us bow humbly and worship the Lord.
2:19
Let us kneel before him, our maker in prayer.
2:28
For we are his people, and he is our God.
2:38
He shepherds and feeds us in his loving care.
2:48
Well, let's bow our heads in prayer.
3:03
Heavenly Father, how good it is that we can come tonight to worship you
3:07
and to come acknowledging your greatness and goodness,
3:13
your love and your faithfulness, your firm covenant towards us.
3:22
It is good for us, Lord, to remember why it is that we are here this evening.
3:29
As we gather on the first day of the week,
3:32
we rejoice in the resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
3:36
We thank you that he is risen tonight, has been conquered death.
3:42
We thank you that the reason for that is because of the manner of his death,
3:48
that death of the cross at Golgotha, which was so satisfying to you.
3:55
Satisfying not because you take a perverse delight in the suffering of your son,
4:00
but because your love required that justice be met for the salvation of your people,
4:11
because your grace had to be displayed.
4:15
And so because of that great display of the love of God,
4:24
of the God the Son laying down his life for his people,
4:27
we tonight can have hope and assurance,
4:35
a certainty of a future,
4:38
a confidence that lies beyond the reality of death,
4:42
and even the failure of this world itself.
4:47
There is great hope that God will redeem,
4:53
and that God will do good things.
4:56
And so we seek tonight to praise you
4:58
for who you are and for what you have done,
5:02
for what has been secured by Jesus in our place,
5:06
and for the hope that we have that one day we will see him with our own eyes.
5:11
We come tonight longing for that meeting, therefore, with you.
5:17
We long for that presence of God with us here
5:20
that would challenge us from what is so often a spiritual lethargy and slumber,
5:27
that you would awaken us from the stupor
5:31
that so often entices us to relax about our spiritual walk.
5:37
Give to us, Lord, a seriousness about our relationship with you,
5:42
that we would long to put to death the sin that is in us,
5:48
and live all the more for your righteous standards and sake.
5:57
We pray, therefore, tonight that you would hear us
5:59
as we confess our sin before you.
6:01
Each one of us sin daily in our thoughts and words and actions,
6:05
and yet we have an advocate with you,
6:09
a high priest in Christ Jesus,
6:11
who has done all that is necessary
6:13
to take away the guilt and stain of our sin
6:16
and to give us an assurance of forgiveness and life.
6:23
And may we, therefore, as men and women and boys and girls
6:27
who enjoy the freedom of the gospel,
6:29
may we, therefore, be filled with good cheer and encouraged
6:33
to come to you in the right way.
6:38
We pray, therefore, to know the Holy Spirit's touch upon our lives.
6:44
May he tonight open hearts here.
6:47
May he encourage those of us who are struggling.
6:51
May he grant peace to those who are in turmoil.
6:53
And may, Lord, in your own profound way,
7:00
would you upset those who are far too comfortable
7:02
and at ease with where they are.
7:07
Lead us to yourself.
7:09
As we were thinking today, that rock that is higher than us,
7:12
the mountain of the Lord.
7:13
May we know that place of security and peace
7:17
for your people.
7:19
And we ask this in Jesus' name.
7:21
Amen.
7:25
We're going to continue singing to God's praise,
7:28
this time in Psalm 51.
7:30
Again in Sing Psalms, page 67.
7:40
We're going to sing verses 1 to 12,
7:42
so five stanzas to God's praise.
7:45
O my God, have mercy on me.
7:48
In your steadfast love I pray.
7:50
In your infinite compassion my transgressions wipe away.
7:55
Cleanse me from iniquity.
7:57
Wash my sin away from me.
8:00
These words penned by King David
8:04
speak of his own acknowledgement of sin.
8:09
And as we were praying,
8:10
it's right for us to come before God in that way
8:12
with that humble confession of sin
8:15
and need that we have, each one of us,
8:17
for cleansing.
8:18
And so let us sing these verses to God's praise
8:21
with that spirit of reflection.
8:23
O my God, have mercy on me
8:25
in your steadfast love I pray.
8:27
O my God, have mercy on me.
8:40
In your steadfast love I pray.
8:45
In your infinite compassion my transgressions wipe away.
8:59
Cleanse me from iniquity.
9:07
Wash my sin away from me.
9:14
For I know my own transgressions.
9:22
I can see my sinful plight.
9:29
You, you only I've offended
9:35
And an evil in your sight.
9:42
So your words are verified
9:49
And your verdict justified
9:56
From my birth I have been sinful
10:05
Such the nature I received
10:11
Sinful from my first beginning
10:18
In my mother's womb conceived
10:25
Truth you look forth
10:30
In my heart
10:34
Wisdom to me you impart
10:40
Cleanse with his soul
10:44
So purify me
10:47
I'll be whiter than the snow
10:53
Let the bones you crushed be joyful
11:01
May I joy and gladness know
11:07
From my failure
11:12
I do this
11:16
Blot out all my wickedness
11:23
Lord create a pure heart in me
11:30
And a steadfast mind renew
11:36
Do not take your spirit from me
11:43
Cast me not away from you
11:49
Give me back the joy I had
11:58
Keep my willing spirit glad
12:03
Please turn with me in your Bibles
12:14
To Paul's second letter to Timothy
12:17
Chapter 2
12:19
So 2 Timothy chapter 2
12:21
If you read in the church Bible
12:24
I think it'll be around about page 1197
12:27
You then my child be strengthened
12:46
By the grace that is in Christ Jesus
12:48
And what you have heard from me
12:52
In the presence of many witnesses
12:54
And trust to faithful men
12:56
Who will be able to teach others also
12:59
Share in suffering as a good soldier
13:02
Of Christ Jesus
13:04
No soldier gets entangled
13:06
In civilian pursuits
13:07
Since his aim is to please
13:09
The one who enlisted him
13:10
An athlete is not crowned
13:14
Unless he competes
13:15
According to the rules
13:16
It is the hard-working farmer
13:18
Who ought to have the first share
13:20
Of the crops
13:21
Think over what I say
13:23
For the Lord will give you
13:24
Understanding in everything
13:26
Remember Jesus Christ
13:29
Risen from the dead
13:31
The offspring of David
13:32
As preached in my gospel
13:35
For which I am suffering
13:37
Bound with chains as a criminal
13:39
But the word of God is not bound
13:41
And therefore I endure
13:43
Everything for the sake of the elect
13:46
That they may obtain the salvation
13:49
That is in Christ Jesus
13:50
With eternal glory
13:52
The saying is trustworthy
13:55
For if we have died with him
13:57
We will also live with him
13:58
If we endure
14:00
We will also reign with him
14:01
If we deny him
14:03
He also will deny us
14:05
If we are faithless
14:07
He remains faithful
14:09
For he cannot deny himself
14:12
Amen
14:14
This is God's word to us
14:18
Let's bow our heads
14:19
Once again
14:20
In prayer to God
14:20
Heavenly Father
14:28
It is out of that
14:29
Sense of
14:30
Your unfailing love
14:32
As Paul wrote to
14:33
Timothy
14:34
That you are
14:36
One who remains
14:37
Faithful
14:38
Your son is faithful to us
14:40
In his love for his people
14:41
It is out of that sense
14:43
Of your great faithfulness
14:44
That we would come to you
14:45
This night
14:46
Because Lord
14:47
You know
14:48
Our great need
14:49
You know
14:50
The great desire
14:52
That we have
14:53
For answers
14:54
Lord
14:55
To the many
14:56
Many things
14:56
That burden our hearts
14:57
We come tonight
14:59
Lord
15:00
Each one of us
15:00
With our own
15:01
Concerns
15:03
We come Lord
15:04
Perhaps some
15:04
With concerns
15:05
So private
15:06
So personal
15:06
And buried
15:07
Deep within
15:07
That we haven't
15:09
Shared them with a soul
15:09
And yet Lord
15:11
You know
15:11
You see
15:12
You see
15:14
So often Lord
15:15
The tears
15:15
Of your people
15:16
And the concerns
15:18
That they have
15:18
And that they carry forward
15:19
So Father
15:21
Tonight
15:21
We would lay
15:22
All of these things
15:23
Before you
15:23
And we would long
15:25
Oh Lord
15:25
To hear your answer
15:26
We would long
15:28
To see a movement
15:28
Of your hand
15:30
And power
15:30
Bringing
15:31
Lord
15:32
Answers
15:33
To these prayers
15:34
Perhaps so often
15:35
Lord
15:35
Most concerning
15:36
For loved ones
15:37
Whom we know
15:38
Who do not know you
15:40
For those around us
15:43
In our families
15:43
In our
15:44
In our homes
15:46
Those
15:48
In our
15:48
Places of work
15:50
Friends
15:51
And neighbours
15:52
And colleagues
15:52
Who simply
15:54
Do not know Jesus
15:55
As Lord
15:56
And as Saviour
15:57
Who haven't yet
15:59
Discovered
16:00
The mercy of God
16:01
We cry to you
16:03
Father tonight
16:04
For
16:05
An intervention
16:06
In the lives
16:07
Of those around us
16:08
In our community
16:09
Who do not know you
16:11
We cry to you
16:13
Father
16:13
That you would
16:14
Remember
16:14
Your grace
16:15
Towards
16:16
The lost
16:17
People
16:19
Of this world
16:19
The lost
16:21
People
16:22
Of this town
16:22
The lost
16:24
In our community
16:24
We ask and pray
16:27
Father
16:28
That you would
16:29
Help us
16:29
Therefore
16:29
To
16:30
Remember
16:31
All of the things
16:32
That
16:33
Paul
16:34
Instructs
16:35
Timothy
16:35
In
16:35
To remember
16:37
All of the good news
16:38
That has been passed on to us
16:39
To understand
16:40
And be able to live
16:41
And tell the gospel
16:42
Ourselves
16:43
To be able to shine
16:45
As lights
16:46
In the world
16:46
And so we pray
16:49
Father
16:49
For your help
16:50
In the great mission
16:52
Of the church
16:53
In the great mission
16:53
Of God himself
16:54
A mission that we are
16:56
Privileged to share in
16:57
May we be given
16:58
Tonight
16:59
Refreshing
17:00
And boldness
17:01
Confidence
17:02
In the gospel
17:03
To know
17:04
That it is
17:05
Indeed
17:05
The power
17:05
Of God
17:06
To the salvation
17:07
Of men
17:08
And women
17:08
As we come
17:11
Before you
17:11
This night
17:12
Lord
17:12
We know
17:12
That the burdens
17:13
That trouble us
17:15
Are often
17:15
As well
17:17
Related to
17:17
The reality
17:19
Of grief
17:19
And sorrow
17:20
That the world
17:21
In which we live
17:22
Is one where we see
17:23
Constant reminders
17:24
Of that
17:25
And in this
17:26
Last week
17:27
We know
17:27
Lord
17:27
That as a congregation
17:28
We have
17:29
Seen the passing
17:30
Of folk
17:31
Associated with us
17:32
We remember
17:34
Anne MacDonald's
17:35
Family tonight
17:36
We pray for them
17:37
And for Catherine
17:37
Anne Mitchell's
17:38
Family as well
17:39
And we ask
17:39
Father
17:40
That out of
17:40
Your great grace
17:41
You would reach
17:43
Into the lostness
17:44
The darkness
17:45
And the sorrow
17:46
Of grief
17:46
And that you
17:47
Would minister
17:48
Your own compassion
17:49
And care
17:50
And love there
17:51
We thank you
17:53
Once again
17:53
Father
17:54
For the bonds
17:55
Of love
17:55
That unite us
17:56
Together
17:57
And that in
17:58
These times
17:58
Of suffering
17:59
And loss
18:00
Your love
18:01
Towards us
18:02
Is expressed
18:03
Through the compassion
18:05
And the tenderness
18:06
Of those whom
18:07
You have placed
18:08
Around us
18:09
We thank you
18:10
For the arms
18:10
Of fellowship
18:11
In the church
18:12
We thank you
18:12
For the
18:13
Encouragements
18:14
That these things
18:15
Can be
18:15
And we ask
18:17
That you would
18:17
Continue to bless
18:18
Us
18:18
And grow
18:19
And strengthen
18:20
The love
18:21
And the fellowship
18:21
Of this congregation
18:22
We pray therefore
18:24
Father
18:24
For the ministry
18:26
Of the word
18:27
Amongst us
18:27
We remember
18:28
Calamurdo
18:29
Especially
18:29
And we pray
18:30
For your blessing
18:31
On him
18:31
And on his family
18:32
We pray
18:33
For the elders
18:35
Of the church
18:35
For those who serve
18:37
In so many different ways
18:38
In the life
18:39
Of the congregation
18:40
And we ask
18:40
Father
18:41
That in every way
18:42
That your blessing
18:43
Would be upon us
18:45
Guard hearts
18:46
It's easy for us
18:47
Lord
18:47
To become bogged down
18:50
In the detail
18:51
Of organization
18:52
It's easy for us
18:53
To be distracted
18:54
With the burdens
18:55
Of many things
18:56
That need to be done
18:57
And yet
18:58
In all of this
18:59
We pray
18:59
That you would
19:00
Constantly refocus
19:02
Our attention
19:02
And our desires
19:04
Upon Jesus
19:05
We want to see him
19:08
We want to see his name
19:10
Lifted high
19:11
Over this town
19:12
We want to see
19:14
Your blessing flow
19:15
Through the witness
19:16
Of the saints
19:17
In this congregation
19:18
And so we ask
19:20
Father
19:20
That you would
19:21
Refresh us
19:22
Continually
19:22
In the living waters
19:24
That are found
19:25
In Christ himself
19:26
We thank you
19:28
Tonight Father
19:29
For the
19:30
Not only for the
19:31
Fellowship of the church
19:32
That we have
19:33
Internally in the congregation
19:35
But externally as well
19:37
With many other
19:37
Like-minded believers
19:38
Around about us
19:40
Both here locally
19:41
And nationally
19:43
And internationally
19:43
We thank you
19:44
That tonight
19:45
We can truly say
19:46
There is but one
19:46
Holy Catholic church
19:48
We thank you
19:50
That the body of Christ
19:51
Is not limited
19:52
By race
19:53
Or nation
19:54
It's not limited
19:55
Even by the things
19:57
That so often divide us
19:58
Within the church
19:59
The creeds
20:00
And the confessions
20:02
That are so important
20:03
And have their place
20:04
And yet the gospel
20:05
Which unites us
20:07
Is so broader
20:07
So tonight
20:09
We pray for our nation
20:10
And for all nations
20:12
Under heaven
20:12
That whatever the gospel
20:14
Has been preached
20:15
This day
20:15
Wherever the saints
20:17
Have gathered
20:17
To encourage
20:18
And to pray
20:19
And to listen
20:20
To your voice
20:21
May your spirit
20:22
Father
20:22
In that vastness
20:24
Of his great
20:25
And immeasurable power
20:26
May your spirit
20:28
Visit each one
20:29
Of these places
20:30
And bring forth
20:32
Life and hope
20:33
In what are so often
20:35
Dark and difficult places
20:36
We remember Lord
20:38
The changes
20:40
Of the seasons
20:41
We remember Lord
20:42
That that's true
20:43
Not just of the
20:44
Physical seasons
20:45
As the nights
20:46
Draw in
20:47
And as the days
20:48
Shorten
20:49
But we remember it
20:50
Lord
20:50
In the political
20:51
Realities of our
20:52
World as well
20:52
That you are the one
20:54
Who raises up rulers
20:55
And brings others down
20:56
And so we cry to you
20:59
Father
20:59
In this year
21:00
In which there have been
21:01
And continue to be
21:02
So many changes
21:04
Happening in the world
21:05
We pray for wisdom
21:07
For those who will
21:08
Elect leaders
21:08
We pray for wisdom
21:10
And grace
21:11
For those who are elected
21:12
And above all
21:14
We pray for your glory
21:15
To be revealed
21:16
In all of these things
21:17
Send forth
21:19
We pray
21:20
Triumph and glory
21:22
For your cause
21:23
In this world
21:23
Spare the hand
21:25
Of judgment
21:26
That would fall upon us
21:27
Because of our sin
21:28
And give to us
21:30
Grace and renewal
21:31
And hope
21:32
In terrible
21:34
And dark times
21:34
We pray therefore
21:36
For peace tonight
21:37
We thank Lord
21:37
Of all of the places
21:38
In the world
21:39
That we know
21:39
And in recent years
21:41
I've been praying for
21:42
For peace to come
21:42
And for the places
21:43
That we forget as well
21:44
There are so many places
21:46
Lord this night
21:47
Of conflict
21:47
And grief
21:49
And sorrow
21:49
Where your people
21:50
Are displaced
21:51
And fearful
21:52
May your grace
21:54
Lord extend
21:54
To bring peace
21:55
In all of these places
21:56
We thank you
21:58
That Christ himself
21:59
Is the prince of peace
22:01
And we long
22:03
For a day
22:03
When his reign
22:05
Will extend
22:06
To the ends
22:07
Of the earth
22:07
And where with that
22:09
Cry of command
22:10
All wars will cease
22:11
And all bows
22:13
Will be broken
22:14
And chariots burned
22:15
And where the swords
22:18
Will be beaten
22:18
Into plowshards
22:20
Lord bring forth peace
22:23
We pray
22:23
On this day of remembrance
22:25
We long for that
22:27
We remember Lord
22:29
This night
22:31
That there are many people
22:33
Who are engaged
22:35
In difficult
22:35
And trying works
22:37
We think Lord
22:38
Of all of the people
22:39
Who we so often rely on
22:41
Perhaps to keep us safe
22:42
We don't even imagine
22:43
What challenges
22:44
They face
22:45
We think of the
22:46
Security services
22:46
We think of the
22:47
Armed forces
22:48
Serving throughout the world
22:50
Seeking to bring
22:51
Our peace
22:52
Home to us
22:53
Lord bless them
22:55
Bless those who go
22:57
Into harm's way
22:58
For the sake of the good
22:59
And the blessing of others
23:00
And may your spirit
23:02
Rest upon them
23:04
We ask and pray
23:05
Especially for the work
23:06
Of those who
23:06
Minister the gospel
23:08
Amongst these communities
23:09
We pray for those
23:11
Who are serving
23:12
In the police
23:13
And are seeking
23:14
To be a Christian witness
23:15
There through the
23:16
Christian police federation
23:18
We pray for those
23:19
Who work and minister
23:20
In evangelism
23:20
In the armed forces
23:21
And organizations
23:22
Like SASRA
23:23
We ask and pray
23:25
Your blessing
23:26
On these men and women
23:27
And pray that you would
23:28
Help them to be
23:30
Lights for Christ Jesus
23:31
As well
23:32
We remember Lord
23:33
That our peace
23:34
Has demanded over the years
23:36
The sacrifices of many
23:37
And so we pray Father
23:39
That we would never take
23:40
These things for granted
23:41
Encourage us therefore
23:43
In the truth
23:44
Help us to stand
23:45
Boldly for this
23:46
And in the days that come
23:48
May we see evidence
23:49
Of your spirit upon us
23:51
We ask and pray
23:53
These things
23:53
With that great sense
23:54
Of joy and expectation
23:56
That belongs
23:57
To the children
23:58
Of almighty God
23:59
And we pray in Jesus name
24:01
Amen
24:02
We're going to sing
24:05
Once more to God's praise
24:06
This time again
24:08
From Sing Psalms
24:08
In Psalm 119
24:09
Psalm 119
24:15
It's a long meditation
24:16
On the law of God
24:18
That has been given
24:18
To his people
24:20
And as we sing
24:22
Just now
24:23
We're going to sing
24:23
From verse 105
24:24
And this is page 163
24:27
Of the blue book
24:28
It's this idea
24:30
Of the word of God
24:31
Being a lamp
24:32
That lights our path
24:34
And that's very much
24:35
What Paul is meaning
24:36
When he addresses Timothy
24:37
As well
24:38
And he says
24:38
Remember Jesus Christ
24:41
We need to remember
24:42
That God has given
24:43
As we'll see
24:44
A lamp
24:45
To shine before us
24:46
And Jesus is often
24:47
The one
24:48
Not only who is
24:49
The light of the world
24:50
Ultimately for our salvation
24:51
But as the one
24:52
Who speaks into
24:53
Our lives
24:54
And who speaks
24:55
With authority
24:55
Into our lives
24:56
He is the light
24:58
By which we need to live
24:59
And so we'll sing
25:01
These words
25:01
Of praise to God
25:03
As we turn shortly
25:04
To God's word
25:05
Your word is a lamp
25:06
That shines before my feet
25:07
It is a light
25:08
That guides me on my way
25:09
The oath that I have taken
25:11
I have confirmed
25:12
That all your righteous laws
25:13
I will obey
25:15
We'll sing this section
25:16
Of the psalm
25:17
To God's praise
25:18
We'll stand to sing
25:19
Your word's a lamp
25:20
That shines before my feet
25:22
It is a light
25:39
That guides me on my way
25:44
The oath that I have taken
25:50
I've confirmed
25:53
That all your righteous laws
25:58
I will hold
26:01
O Lord
26:05
You know
26:06
That I have suffered much
26:12
Preserve my life
26:16
According to your word
26:21
Accept the willing
26:25
Praises of my heart
26:30
Instruct me in your righteous
26:35
Oh Lord
26:38
I will not disregard
26:45
Your holy law
26:48
Though constantly
26:51
My life is in my hands
26:57
Although the wicked
27:02
Set and sail for me
27:06
I have not left the path
27:11
Of your calm lands
27:15
Your statutes are
27:20
My heritage always
27:25
And every day
27:28
And every day
27:29
Make my heart rejoice
27:34
My heart is set
27:38
On keeping your desires
27:43
And to the very end
27:48
They are my choice
27:52
Well would you turn with me
28:01
Please in your Bibles
28:01
Back to that passage
28:03
We've read in 2 Timothy
28:04
2 Timothy 2 verse 8
28:07
There's remember in Sunday
28:13
I'm sure the word remember
28:14
Has been spoken
28:16
Far above its usual quota
28:18
Today
28:19
But this is the verse
28:21
That we're looking at this evening
28:22
Remember Jesus Christ
28:23
Risen from the dead
28:24
The offspring of David
28:27
As preached
28:28
In my gospel
28:30
Let's bow our heads briefly
28:33
In prayer to God
28:34
Before we turn to the word
28:35
Heavenly Father
28:35
As we come aside
28:37
For a short time this evening
28:38
Around your word
28:39
May this continue to be
28:40
For us part of our worship
28:42
And may we
28:43
Inwardly in our hearts
28:45
Declare the glory of God
28:47
May we
28:47
Pour out praise to you
28:50
As we feast upon the word
28:51
That you have given
28:52
As we nourish ourselves
28:54
On your great gifts
28:55
Towards us
28:56
And as we
28:58
Endeavour to do
28:59
As Paul instructs
29:01
Remember
29:02
Jesus Christ
29:03
We need Lord
29:04
To be brought back
29:05
Continually
29:06
To that place
29:07
Of remembrance
29:07
And so we ask
29:08
Father for your help
29:09
In the coming week
29:11
That we would reflect
29:12
On this imperative
29:13
And that we would
29:15
Take it to heart
29:16
And grow
29:17
Therefore
29:18
In grace
29:19
We ask this
29:19
In Jesus name
29:20
Amen
29:21
So the letter
29:25
That we're reading
29:26
In tonight
29:27
2 Timothy
29:28
It's helpful
29:29
Maybe just at the beginning
29:30
To reiterate
29:32
Refresh ourselves
29:33
Maybe on some of the
29:34
Context
29:35
The occasion
29:36
Of the letter
29:37
Paul
29:37
Is coming to the end
29:39
Of his life
29:41
He is at this point
29:43
Imprisoned
29:44
In Rome
29:45
He expects
29:46
Probably to be
29:47
Executed
29:48
In the spring
29:49
And it's now
29:50
Getting into
29:51
The winter
29:52
Although he knows
29:54
He's going to be
29:56
Executed
29:56
He still asks
29:57
Timothy
29:59
To bring some things
30:00
To him
30:01
That tells us
30:02
A little bit
30:02
In this letter
30:03
Maybe of Paul's
30:04
Own state of mind
30:05
He's longing for
30:06
Timothy to bring
30:07
A beloved cloak
30:08
And he longs for
30:11
Along with that
30:12
For parchments
30:13
To come
30:13
An old man
30:14
Feeling the cold
30:15
And longing to read
30:17
Probably comforting words
30:20
That have blessed him
30:22
In the past
30:23
And this old man
30:24
Now writes this letter
30:25
Encouraging Timothy
30:27
Timothy's a very
30:29
We know a fairly
30:30
Timid character
30:31
He needs
30:32
Encouragement
30:33
Many of us are like that
30:35
We need
30:35
Encouragement
30:36
Along the way
30:38
And Paul
30:40
Writes therefore
30:41
To him
30:41
He had been
30:42
Paul's student
30:43
Timothy had come
30:44
With Paul
30:45
On some of his
30:45
Missionary journeys
30:47
And had been
30:48
Encouraged by Paul
30:50
To continue
30:50
In his own
30:51
Ministry
30:51
Previously
30:52
Just in passing
30:55
I would say that
30:55
To young Christians
30:56
Tonight
30:57
It is so important
30:59
For your growth
31:00
To find
31:02
Someone who will
31:04
Have that kind
31:05
Of relationship
31:05
With you
31:06
Someone who will
31:07
Mentor you
31:08
And encourage you
31:10
And seek to
31:11
Build you up
31:12
So find a Paul
31:14
If you are a Timothy
31:15
Paul's concern then
31:18
For Timothy
31:18
Is very clear
31:19
He wants him
31:20
To continue
31:21
In the work
31:22
Of the gospel
31:22
And that's what
31:24
The letter is all about
31:24
John Stott
31:25
In fact writing
31:26
A very famous
31:26
Commentary on this
31:27
Subtitles his commentary
31:29
Guard the gospel
31:30
And that's very much
31:31
The theme of the letter
31:33
Guard the gospel
31:34
And so as we think
31:35
About remembrance
31:36
Today on
31:37
Remembrance Sunday
31:38
It's very much
31:39
In that theme
31:40
That Paul says
31:41
To Timothy
31:41
Remember the gospel
31:42
Remember Christ Jesus
31:44
Sorry
31:44
As you have heard him
31:46
In my gospel
31:47
And so this idea
31:48
Of the gospel
31:49
Is something about
31:50
Jesus
31:51
Obviously
31:52
And it's that
31:53
Remembering of Jesus
31:54
That Paul has
31:56
Brought
31:57
Is bringing to
31:58
Timothy's mind
31:58
And reminding him
31:59
Of everything he's heard
32:00
In the gospel
32:02
The good news
32:03
That Timothy
32:04
Has already
32:04
Received
32:05
And tonight
32:07
That's where we need
32:07
To begin
32:07
Is just wondering
32:08
About this instruction
32:10
Remember
32:10
Christ Jesus
32:12
Is that like
32:13
What we've been doing
32:13
Today
32:14
Today I'm sure
32:16
Many of us
32:17
On Remembrance Sunday
32:20
We're not just
32:21
Remembering
32:21
The armistice
32:23
Remembrance Sunday
32:24
Originated after
32:25
World War II
32:25
And it was
32:27
A remembrance
32:28
Of the horrific
32:29
Loss of life
32:30
And sacrifice
32:31
That had followed
32:33
In the previous
32:33
Two world wars
32:34
And we've seen
32:36
Wars continue
32:38
To spread
32:39
The last century
32:40
Was by far
32:41
The bloodiest
32:42
In human history
32:43
And I'm sure
32:44
Many of us know
32:45
Families who have
32:46
Lost loved ones
32:47
In conflict
32:48
And borne that
32:50
Grief and sorrow
32:51
When we remember
32:53
We remember so often
32:54
I think
32:54
To honour
32:55
Those who have
32:56
Paid the ultimate
32:57
Sacrifice for our
32:58
Freedom
32:58
We honour
33:00
Their memory
33:00
We honour
33:01
Their sacrifice
33:02
And in the
33:05
Aftermath
33:05
Sometimes as well
33:06
We remember them
33:07
To say
33:08
Never again
33:09
That too
33:11
Was part of
33:12
The remembrance
33:13
The act of
33:14
Remembrance
33:14
Was involved
33:16
Almost a
33:17
Solemn vow
33:18
Being made
33:18
To say
33:19
We can never
33:19
Allow the world
33:21
To sink into
33:22
This level
33:23
Of violence
33:24
Again
33:24
And how grievously
33:26
Perhaps we have
33:27
Failed in that
33:28
Aspiration
33:28
Is that the kind
33:30
Of remembering
33:31
That Paul means
33:32
Does he want
33:33
Timothy
33:33
To recall
33:35
Jesus
33:36
And to recall
33:38
Certainly the
33:39
Sacrifice of
33:40
Jesus
33:40
With a view
33:42
To perhaps
33:42
Giving thanks
33:43
To honouring
33:45
The memory
33:46
Of Christ
33:47
And I'm sure
33:49
That actually
33:49
Many people
33:50
Who come to
33:50
Church
33:51
That's what
33:52
You're looking
33:52
To do
33:52
And there's
33:54
An earnestness
33:54
And a
33:55
Genuineness
33:55
About that
33:56
You are
33:56
Impressed
33:57
By the
33:58
Person
33:59
Of Jesus
34:00
There are
34:01
Things about
34:02
Him that
34:02
Are intriguing
34:04
Things about
34:05
His life
34:06
And his death
34:06
In particular
34:07
And the
34:08
Claims of
34:08
His resurrection
34:09
That are
34:11
Interesting
34:11
Certainly
34:12
That you would
34:12
Want to call
34:13
To mind
34:13
There are
34:14
Many people
34:14
In the world
34:15
Who would
34:15
Say Jesus
34:16
Was a
34:16
Wonderful
34:16
Educator
34:18
And philosopher
34:18
And someone
34:19
Who promoted
34:20
Peace
34:21
These things
34:21
Are all
34:22
True
34:22
But that's
34:24
Not what
34:25
Paul is
34:26
Saying to
34:26
Timothy
34:27
It's not
34:29
What he's
34:29
Saying to
34:29
Us
34:30
The word
34:31
Remember
34:32
Here in
34:33
Greek
34:34
Is what
34:34
You call
34:35
A present
34:36
Imperative
34:36
Which means
34:38
It's not just
34:39
Something you
34:39
Do one
34:40
Off to
34:41
Fondly
34:42
Look back
34:43
On the
34:43
Past
34:43
It is
34:45
Something that
34:45
You must
34:46
Do
34:46
Continually
34:47
In a
34:49
Sense
34:49
What Paul
34:50
Is saying
34:50
Is
34:50
Timothy
34:51
I want
34:52
You to
34:52
Think about
34:53
Jesus
34:54
As you've
34:54
Understood him
34:55
From my
34:55
Gospel
34:56
And I
34:57
Want that
34:58
To be
34:58
So present
34:59
In your
35:00
Life
35:01
And so
35:02
Present in
35:03
Your thinking
35:03
That your
35:05
Life itself
35:06
Is going
35:06
To be
35:07
Continually
35:08
Shaped
35:09
By
35:10
What you
35:11
Know
35:12
Of Jesus
35:13
Allow
35:15
Jesus
35:16
As you
35:17
Understand him
35:18
In the
35:18
Gospel
35:19
To shape
35:20
Everything
35:21
About you
35:22
Make it
35:24
Your world
35:25
View
35:25
Make it
35:26
How you
35:26
Think about
35:27
All of
35:27
Your
35:27
Relationships
35:29
Certainly
35:29
With other
35:29
People
35:30
But above
35:31
All your
35:31
Relationship
35:32
With God
35:32
Make Jesus
35:35
The one
35:35
Who you
35:36
In order
35:36
To think
35:37
About everything
35:38
That's happening
35:38
In your
35:39
Life today
35:40
Remember him
35:42
So that
35:42
You understand
35:44
Your situation
35:45
Correctly
35:47
When Paul
35:49
Says
35:49
Remember
35:50
Christ
35:51
Jesus
35:52
That's the
35:53
Kind of
35:54
Remembering
35:54
He wants
35:55
Not a
35:56
One-off
35:56
Not something
35:58
That we
35:58
Occasionally
35:59
Come back
35:59
To
36:00
But something
36:01
That is
36:02
Constant
36:02
And permanent
36:03
In the
36:04
Way we
36:05
Think
36:05
And that
36:07
Takes a
36:08
Lot of
36:08
Work
36:08
That takes
36:10
I think
36:11
Perhaps
36:12
In fact
36:12
The fruit
36:13
Of the
36:13
Holy
36:13
Spirit
36:13
That takes
36:15
The divine
36:16
Work of
36:16
God
36:17
Renewing
36:18
In your
36:18
Life
36:19
Transforming
36:20
You
36:20
To enable
36:21
You
36:22
To have
36:23
That
36:24
Presence
36:25
Of Jesus
36:26
In your
36:27
Mind
36:28
Continually
36:29
And Paul
36:30
Speaks like
36:30
This elsewhere
36:31
He talks about
36:31
Constantly being
36:32
Renewed in the
36:33
Gospel
36:33
Renewing your
36:34
Mind in these
36:35
Things
36:35
And that's
36:36
What we
36:37
Should be
36:37
Aiming for
36:38
This evening
36:38
Now he
36:40
Doesn't just
36:41
Leave us
36:41
With that
36:41
Sort of
36:42
Blank
36:42
Understanding
36:43
Of
36:44
Or a
36:44
Blank
36:45
Understanding
36:45
There for
36:45
What that
36:46
Might involve
36:47
Paul is
36:48
Very helpful
36:48
And very
36:49
Structured
36:50
In the
36:51
Way he
36:51
Thinks
36:52
About Jesus
36:52
And so he
36:53
Gives us
36:54
More information
36:55
If you look
36:55
At the
36:55
Verse
36:55
Remember
36:56
Jesus
36:57
Christ
36:58
Not just
36:59
Jesus
37:00
But Jesus
37:00
Christ
37:01
Jesus
37:01
The Messiah
37:02
Jesus
37:02
The anointed
37:03
One
37:04
That's what
37:04
The Christ
37:05
Means
37:05
Someone who
37:06
Was anointed
37:07
And when we
37:08
Think about
37:08
The anointed
37:09
One
37:10
There's
37:11
Really
37:12
Three
37:12
Things
37:13
That we
37:14
Should
37:14
Always
37:14
Remember
37:15
In
37:17
Jewish
37:17
Thought
37:18
In the
37:18
Old Testament
37:18
In the
37:20
Old Testament
37:21
Scriptures
37:21
When somebody
37:23
Was anointed
37:23
For a
37:24
Task
37:25
It denotes
37:26
A special
37:27
Separation
37:29
God is
37:31
Saying you
37:32
Are set
37:32
Apart
37:33
For this
37:33
And normally
37:35
There's one
37:36
Of three
37:37
Offices
37:38
That that
37:38
Would happen
37:39
In it
37:39
There's
37:40
The office
37:40
Of a
37:41
Prophet
37:41
So someone
37:43
Who speaks
37:44
With divine
37:45
Authority
37:46
That person
37:47
Would be
37:48
Anointed
37:48
Set apart
37:49
By anointing
37:50
For the
37:51
Work of
37:51
Prophetic
37:52
Ministry
37:52
Speaking
37:54
God's
37:54
Word
37:54
Into
37:55
The lives
37:56
Of his
37:56
People
37:56
And then
37:58
There's the
37:58
Office
37:59
Of a
37:59
Priest
37:59
Priests
38:00
Were anointed
38:00
And again
38:02
The anointing
38:03
Shows them
38:04
Being specially
38:04
Set apart
38:05
For a
38:06
Priestly
38:07
Function
38:08
An
38:08
Intermediary
38:09
Function
38:09
Where you
38:10
Stand
38:10
Between
38:11
God
38:11
And man
38:12
Where you
38:13
Engage
38:14
In some
38:14
Practice
38:15
Towards
38:16
God
38:16
On behalf
38:17
Of the
38:17
People
38:18
Or towards
38:19
The people
38:19
On behalf
38:19
Of God
38:20
And ultimately
38:22
There was also
38:23
That office
38:24
Of king
38:24
The king
38:26
Was anointed
38:27
David
38:28
You remember
38:29
Was anointed
38:29
By Samuel
38:30
When he was
38:31
A young lad
38:32
Not because
38:34
He was something
38:34
Extra special
38:35
Outwardly
38:36
He was
38:37
The kid
38:38
Of the
38:38
Family
38:38
The scrawny
38:39
One
38:40
But
38:41
Samuel
38:43
Observing
38:43
This
38:44
Is rebuked
38:44
By God
38:45
And reminded
38:46
That God
38:47
Doesn't look
38:47
On the
38:48
Outward
38:48
Things
38:48
But he
38:48
Looks
38:49
On the
38:49
Heart
38:49
And God
38:51
Says that
38:52
One
38:52
Is anointed
38:52
That's the
38:54
One
38:54
To set
38:54
Apart
38:55
For the
38:55
Mission
38:55
Of leading
38:56
My people
38:57
Of governing
38:58
Them
38:58
And
39:00
Jesus
39:01
When he's
39:03
Receiving
39:03
The title
39:04
Christ
39:05
Is being
39:06
Set into
39:07
These
39:07
Offices
39:08
We
39:10
Recognize
39:10
Them
39:11
And so
39:12
Tonight
39:12
I think
39:12
It would
39:12
Be helpful
39:13
For us
39:13
To think
39:13
About what
39:14
Paul
39:14
Says
39:14
Here
39:15
About these
39:15
Offices
39:16
Because he
39:16
Does
39:17
Refer to
39:17
Them
39:17
And we
39:19
Think about
39:19
The person
39:20
And work
39:20
Of Jesus
39:21
In relation
39:22
To this
39:22
To see
39:22
How our
39:23
Lives
39:23
Can be
39:23
Shaped
39:24
By
39:24
Remembering
39:25
Continually
39:26
Jesus
39:27
The Christ
39:28
How do
39:31
We remember
39:32
Him then
39:32
As he's
39:34
Preached
39:35
Because that's
39:36
Where it
39:36
Begins
39:36
Paul says
39:37
Remember
39:37
Christ
39:38
Jesus
39:38
Risen
39:39
From the
39:39
Dead
39:39
The
39:39
Offspring
39:40
Of
39:40
David
39:40
As
39:41
Preached
39:42
In my
39:43
Gospel
39:43
The
39:45
Gospel
39:46
Paul's
39:47
Preaching
39:47
Of the
39:47
Gospel
39:47
It's a
39:48
It's a
39:48
Declaration
39:48
Paul
39:49
Understands
39:50
The
39:50
Gospel
39:50
As a
39:51
Proclamation
39:52
Of good
39:53
News
39:54
That's what
39:54
The
39:54
Gospel
39:55
Is
39:55
In fact
39:55
The
39:56
Very
39:56
Word
39:56
Gospel
39:57
It's
39:57
Not
39:57
Merely
39:57
That
39:57
There
39:58
Is
39:58
Good
39:58
News
39:58
But
39:58
There's
39:59
Good
39:59
News
39:59
That
39:59
Needs
40:00
To
40:00
Be
40:00
Proclaimed
40:01
Heralded
40:02
Told
40:02
That's
40:04
What we
40:04
Do
40:04
On
40:04
Sundays
40:05
In
40:05
This
40:06
Church
40:06
We
40:07
Preach
40:07
The
40:07
Gospel
40:08
We
40:08
Herald
40:09
The
40:09
Good
40:09
News
40:10
Of
40:10
Jesus
40:10
For
40:11
Men
40:11
And
40:11
Women
40:11
And
40:12
The
40:12
Good
40:13
News
40:17
That
40:18
Forgiveness
40:18
Of
40:18
Sins
40:19
Is
40:19
Possible
40:19
That
40:20
The
40:20
Hope
40:20
Of
40:21
Eternal
40:21
Life
40:21
Is
40:21
There
40:22
The
40:22
Good
40:22
News
40:22
Is
40:22
That
40:23
Death
40:23
Doesn't
40:23
Potentially
40:24
Hold
40:24
Us
40:25
Doesn't
40:26
Lay
40:26
A
40:26
Grip
40:26
On
40:26
Us
40:27
That
40:27
Can
40:27
Be
40:27
Defeated
40:28
Because
40:28
Christ
40:29
Has
40:29
Conquered
40:30
Death
40:30
And
40:31
In
40:31
His
40:32
Resurrection
40:32
On
40:32
The
40:32
First
40:33
Day
40:33
Of
40:33
The
40:33
Week
40:33
Death
40:34
Was
40:34
Beaten
40:34
We
40:37
Have
40:37
That
40:37
Hope
40:38
That
40:39
There
40:39
Is
40:39
Something
40:39
Worth
40:40
Saying
40:40

Empty

Tomb
47:50
2000
47:51
Years

47:51
Did

47:58
You
47:58
Can
47:58
Go
47:59
Away
47:59
And
47:59
You
47:59
Can
47:59
Spend
47:59
Time
48:00
Examining
48:00
And
48:01
Questioning
48:01
And
48:01
Looking
48:02
At
48:02
All
48:02
Of

This
48:02
But
48:03
The
48:03
Inescapable
48:04
Reality
48:04
Is
48:04
There
48:04
Was
48:05
A
48:05
Grave
48:05
That
48:06
Had
48:06
A
48:06
Body
48:06
In

It
48:06
And
48:07
Then
48:07
There
48:07
Wasn't
48:07
Something
48:09
Changed
48:10
Jesus

Conquered
48:12
Death
48:13
Rose
48:14
To
48:15
Life
48:15
And
48:19
We
48:19
Need
48:19
To
48:19
Ask
48:19
Why
48:20
What
48:20
Happened
48:21
There
48:21
Well
48:24
It
48:24
Means
48:24
He
48:24
Died
48:25
I
48:26
Mean
48:26
That's
48:27
The
48:27
Simple
48:27
Truth
48:28
Of
48:28
It
48:28
We
48:28
Can
48:28
Talk
48:28
About
48:28
The
48:29
Resurrection
48:29
An
48:29
Off
48:29
Lot
48:30
And
48:31
I
48:31
Would
48:31
Love
48:31
To
48:31
But
48:32
We
48:33
Have
48:33
To
48:33
Kind
48:34
Of
48:34
Ask
48:34
The
48:34
Question
48:34
Why
48:35
Does
48:35
He
48:35
Rise
48:36
What's
48:36
Happening
48:37
There
48:37
And
48:39
The
48:39
Reason
48:39
Is
48:39
His
48:40
Death
48:40
Was
48:43
Not
48:44
Normal
48:44
His
48:47
Death
48:48
Was
48:49
Not
48:49
Normal
48:50
In
48:50
The
48:50
Sense
48:51
That
48:51
It
48:52
Wasn't
48:53
Able
48:54
To
48:54
Hold
48:54
Him
48:54
You
48:57
Know
48:57
When
48:57
You
48:57

I
48:57
Any
48:58

49:00
Dies
49:01
We
49:03
Tend
49:04
To
49:04
Stay
49:04
Dead
49:05
And
49:07
The
49:07
Reason
49:07
Is
49:08
That
49:08
Ultimately
49:08
Our
49:09
Deaths
49:09
Are
49:09
Justified
49:10
Our
49:12
Deaths
49:12
Are
49:12
Entirely
49:13
Reasonable
49:14
They're
49:16
Reasonable
49:17
Not
49:17
Because
49:17
Our
49:17
Bodies
49:18
Fail
49:18
Not
49:19
Merely
49:19
Because
49:20
Medical
49:21
Science
49:21
Can't
49:21
Rescue
49:22
Us
49:22
From
49:22
Every
49:22
Death
49:23
They're
49:25
Justifiable
49:26
Because
49:26
Every
49:27
One
49:27
Of
49:27
Us
49:27
Is
49:27
A
49:27
Sinner
49:28
And
49:30
Every
49:30
One
49:30
Of
49:31
Us
49:31
Deserves
49:31
Death
49:32
Just
49:34
As
49:34
God
49:34
Had
49:34
Said
49:35
In
49:35
Genesis
49:35
3
49:36
When
49:39
You
49:40
Rebel
49:40
Against
49:40
God
49:41
You
49:41
Deserve
49:41
To
49:41
Die
49:42
I
49:45
Deserve
49:45
It
49:46
You
49:47
Deserve
49:47
It
49:48
Every
49:49
One
49:49
Of
49:49
Us
49:49
Deserve
49:50
It
49:50
But
49:52
Jesus
49:53
Didn't
49:53
Because
49:56
He
49:56
Didn't
49:56
Rebel
49:56
Against
49:57
God
49:57
Because
49:59
He
49:59
Was
50:00
The
50:00
Perfect
50:01
Priestly
50:02
Savior
50:02
And
50:04
He
50:04
Went
50:04
To
50:05
The
50:05
Cross
50:05
At
50:05
Golgotha
50:06
And
50:07
There
50:07
He
50:08
Died
50:08
A
50:09
Death
50:10
That
50:10
He
50:10
Did
50:10
Not
50:10
Deserve
50:11
And
50:12
He
50:12
Died
50:13
It
50:13
In
50:13
The
50:13
Place
50:13
Of
50:14
Others
50:14
He
50:14
Was
50:14
There
50:14
As
50:14
A
50:15
Substitute
50:15
He
50:16
Took
50:16
Our
50:16
Place
50:17
He
50:18
Took
50:18
Our
50:18
Ultimate
50:19
Guilt
50:19
Upon
50:20
Himself
50:20
Satisfying
50:22
The
50:23
Justice
50:23
Of
50:24
God
50:24
And
50:28
Therefore
50:28
Death
50:29
Could
50:29
Not
50:29
Hold
50:30
Him
50:30
It
50:31
Was
50:31
Not
50:32
Permissible
50:32
For
50:33
Death
50:33
To
50:33
Hold
50:34
Him
50:34
And
50:36
So
50:36
The
50:36
Father
50:36
Satisfied
50:38
That
50:38
His
50:38
Justice
50:39
For
50:40
The
50:40
Sins
50:40
Of
50:41
God's
50:41
People
50:41
Had
50:42
Been
50:42
Fully
50:42
Paid
50:43
For
50:44
All
50:45
Encapsulated
50:46
In
50:46
These
50:46
Three
50:46
Hours
50:47
Of
50:47
Darkness
50:47
At
50:48
The
50:48
Cross
50:48
Where
50:49
He
50:49
Had
50:49
Cried
50:49
Out
50:49
My
50:50
God
50:50
My
50:50
God
50:51
Why
50:51
Have
50:52
You
50:52
Forsaken
50:52
Me
50:53
He
50:53
Experienced
50:54
That
50:54
Interruption
50:55
To
50:55
Fellowship
50:56
And
50:56
Closeness
50:57
With
50:57
His
50:58
Father
50:58
A
50:59
Hellish
50:59
Experience
51:00
For
51:00
Him
51:00
He
51:02
Experienced
51:03
That
51:03
And
51:04
Said
51:04
It
51:05
Is
51:05
Done
51:05
It
51:07
Is
51:07
Finished
51:07
And
51:09
Because
51:09
Of
51:09
The
51:10
Finished
51:10
Work
51:11
Of
51:11
Jesus
51:11
At
51:11
The
51:12
Cross
51:12
Death
51:13
Could
51:14
Not
51:14
Hold
51:14
Him
51:14
It
51:15
Would
51:15
Not
51:15
Have
51:15
Been
51:16
Right
51:16
It
51:16
Would
51:16
Not
51:16
Have
51:16
Been
51:16
Fair
51:17
It
51:17
Would
51:17
Not
51:18
Have
51:18
Been
51:18
Just
51:18
And
51:21
So
51:21
He
51:21
Raised
51:22
He
51:22
Was
51:22
Raised
51:23
To
51:23
This
51:23
Life
51:24
As
51:25
Paul
51:25
Here
51:25
Says
51:26
!
51:26
Christ
51:26
Jesus
51:27
Risen
51:28
From
51:29
The
51:29
Dead
51:29
His
51:32
Priestly
51:32
Work
51:33
As
51:33
A
51:33
Savior
51:33
Was
51:34
Done
51:35
It
51:36
Was
51:37
Completed
51:37
And
51:39
All
51:40
That
51:40
Is
51:40
Necessary
51:40
Therefore
51:41
For
51:41
Our
51:41
Salvation
51:42
Was
51:42
Completed
51:43
In
51:43
Him
51:44
And
51:45
Paul
51:46
Says
51:46
I
51:46
Want
51:47
You
51:47
To
51:47
Remember
51:47
Christ
51:48
Jesus
51:49
Risen
51:50
From
51:50
The
51:50
Dead
51:50
Now
51:52
Why
51:52
Is
51:52
He
51:52
Saying
51:52
That
51:53
Is
51:53
He
51:53
Saying
51:53
Because
51:53
The
51:53
Resurrection
51:54
Is
51:54
Important
51:54
Well
51:55
Yes
51:55
Is
51:56
He
51:56
Saying
51:56
Well
51:56
Because
51:57
I
51:57
Want
51:57
You
51:57
To
51:57
Think
51:57
And
51:57
Remember
51:58
That
51:58
You
51:58
Got
51:58
That
51:58
Hope
51:59
As
51:59
Well
51:59
That
51:59
One
51:59
Day
52:00
You
52:00
Will
52:00
Be
52:00
Raised
52:01
From
52:01
The
52:01
Dead
52:01
Yes
52:01
That
52:02
Is
52:02
True
52:02
But
52:03
The
52:03
Reason
52:04
You
52:04
Would
52:04
Do
52:04
It
52:04
Continually
52:05
Is
52:06
Because
52:06
We
52:06
Forget
52:07
The
52:07
Importance
52:08
Of
52:08
It
52:08
Often
52:09
How
52:11
Many
52:11
Of
52:11
You
52:11
As
52:11
Christians
52:11
Have
52:12
Experienced
52:12
That
52:12
Way
52:13
Of
52:13
Thinking
52:13
That
52:14
Says
52:14
I
52:15
Really
52:15
Failed
52:16
God
52:16
Today
52:16
And
52:18
You
52:18
Feel
52:18
Rotten
52:19
To
52:19
Your
52:20
Core
52:20
And
52:21
You
52:21
Are
52:21
Thinking
52:22
To
52:22
Yourself
52:22
Somehow
52:23
Like
52:23
The
52:23
Prodigal
52:24
Son
52:24
I
52:24
Will
52:24
Go
52:25
To
52:25
My
52:25
Father
52:25
And
52:26
Somehow
52:27
Promise
52:30
His
52:31
Salvation
52:32
I
52:33
Will
52:33
Re-earn
52:34
His
52:34
Favor
52:35
There
52:35
Is
52:35
Surely
52:36
Something
52:36
I
52:36
Must
52:37
Do
52:37
In
52:38
Order
52:38
To
52:39
Be
52:39
Right
52:39
With
52:39
God
52:40
And
52:40
To
52:40
Enjoy
52:40
His
52:41
Peace
52:41
We
52:44
Could
52:44
Do
52:44
A
52:45
Show
52:45
Of
52:45
Hands
52:45
But
52:45
I
52:45
Know
52:45
Most
52:46
Of
52:46
You
52:46
As
52:46
Christians
52:46
Would
52:47
Put
52:47
Your
52:47
Hands
52:47
Up
52:47
Because
52:48
Most
52:48
Of
52:48
Us
52:48
Do
52:49
That
52:49
We
52:51
Fool
52:51
Ourselves
52:52
Into
52:53
Thinking
52:53
The
52:54
Gospel
52:54
Says
52:55
I
52:56
Have
52:56
To
52:56
Do
52:56
Something
52:56
To
52:57
Earn
52:57
God's
52:57
Favor
52:58
And
53:00
Paul
53:01
Says
53:01
Remember
53:02
Christ
53:03
Jesus
53:04
Risen
53:05
From
53:06
The
53:06
Dead
53:06
Tonight
53:08
Your
53:09
Salvation
53:09
Your
53:11
Eternal
53:12
Salvation
53:13
Does
53:14
Not
53:14
Rest
53:15
On
53:15
You
53:15
Earning
53:16
The
53:16
Father's
53:17

Tonight
54:19
We

Dare
54:20
So
54:20
Often
54:21
Don't
54:21
We
54:21
To

Away
54:23
From
54:23
The
54:23
Work
54:24
Of
54:24
Jesus
54:24
To
54:26
Imagine
54:26
That
54:27
Something
54:27
More
54:27
Is
54:28
Needed
54:28
And
54:30
To

Look
54:31
Elsewhere
54:31
Paul
54:34
Says
54:34
Remember
54:34
Jesus
54:35
Continually
54:38
Remember
54:39
Him
54:39
Every

Morning
54:40
When
54:40
You
54:41
Get
54:41
Up
54:41
Remember
54:42
Him
54:42
Every
54:43
Moment
54:44
Of
54:44
Every
54:44
Day
54:44
When
54:45
You're
54:45
Tempted
54:45
To
54:46
Sin
54:46
And
54:48
You
54:48
Feel
54:48
Like
54:48
In
54:48
Fact
54:48
The
54:49
Sin
54:49
Is
54:49
Going
54:49
To
54:49
Overwhelm
54:50
You
54:50
Because
54:50
It's
54:50
Too
54:50
Much
54:51
Remember
54:51
Him
54:52
Because
54:53
He
54:53
Has
54:53
Purchased
54:54
Your
54:55
Salvation
54:56
And
54:58
He
54:58
Has
54:58
Secured
54:59
Your
55:00
Hope
55:00
And
55:02
You
55:02
Go
55:02
With
55:03
Him
55:04
Remember
55:06
Him
55:06
As
55:07
A
55:07
Priestly
55:07
Savior
55:08
So
55:08
A
55:08
Prophetic
55:08
Voice
55:09
A
55:09
Priestly
55:10
!
55:10
Savior
55:10
But
55:11
Also
55:12
Finally
55:12
Remember
55:14
Him
55:14
As
55:16
A
55:16
Kingly
55:17
Lord
55:17
Paul
55:20
Says
55:20
Remember
55:21
Christ
55:21
Jesus
55:22
Not
55:23
Only
55:23
Risen
55:23
From
55:23
The
55:23
Dead
55:24
But
55:25
Also
55:25
The
55:25
Offspring
55:26
!
55:26
Of
55:26
David
55:27
And
55:28
That's
55:28
In
55:30
Paul's
55:31
Worldview
55:31
In
55:31
Paul's
55:32
Way
55:32
Of
55:32
Thinking
55:32
That's
55:32
A
55:32
Really
55:33
Important
55:33
Phrase
55:34
Because
55:35
For
55:36
Paul
55:36
The
55:37
Identity
55:38
Of
55:38
Jesus
55:38
Is
55:39
Bound
55:39
Up
55:39
In
55:39
This
55:40
Position
55:41
That
55:41
He
55:41
Has
55:41
As
55:42
The
55:42
One
55:43
Who
55:43
Receives
55:44
The
55:45
Throne
55:45
Of
55:45
David
55:46
So
55:47
When
55:48
Paul
55:48
Thinks
55:48
Of
55:49
Jesus
55:49
As
55:49
Lord
55:50
He's
55:50
Actually
55:51
Thinking
55:51
Not
55:51
Merely
55:52
That
55:52
Jesus
55:52
Lord
55:52
Because
55:52
He's
55:53
God
55:53
And
55:54
He's
55:54
Entitled
55:54
To
55:54
Sit
55:55
On
55:55
The
55:55
Throne
55:55
Of
55:55
Heaven
55:55
Because
55:56
He
55:56
Is
55:57
He's
55:57
God
55:57
The
55:57
Son
55:57
But
55:59
Because
55:59
He's
55:59
Also
56:00
Entitled
56:00
To
56:00
Sit
56:01
On
56:01
A
56:01
Kingly
56:01
Earthly
56:01
Throne
56:02
He
56:03
Sits
56:03
On
56:04
The
56:04
Throne
56:04
Of
56:04
David
56:04
He's
56:06
The
56:06
One
56:11
Who
56:12
Will
56:12
Rule
56:12
In
56:12
Your
56:12
Stead
56:13
He
56:14
Goes
56:14
Back
56:15
Actually
56:15
Further
56:15
To
56:16
The
56:16
Promise
56:16
Of
56:16
The
56:16
Seed
56:17
Given
56:17
To
56:17
Abraham
56:17
And
56:18
Ultimately
56:19
The
56:19
Promise
56:19
Of
56:19
The
56:19
Seed
56:20
Given
56:20
To
56:20
Adam
56:21
And
56:22
Eve
56:22
The
56:24
Promise
56:24
In fact
56:24
Given
56:25
To
56:25
Satan
56:25
That
56:27
Someone
56:27
Will
56:27
Bruise
56:27
His
56:27
Head
56:28
A
56:30
Valiant
56:32
Victor
56:33
Who
56:34
Triumphs
56:35
Over
56:35
Sin
56:35
Who
56:36
Defeats
56:37
The
56:37
Evil
56:37
One
56:37
Who
56:39
Does
56:39
All
56:39
The
56:39
Things
56:39
That
56:40
A
56:40
King
56:40
Should
56:40
Do
56:41
Who
56:41
Leads
56:41
And
56:42
Governs
56:42
His
56:42
People
56:42
Who
56:43
Defends
56:43
Them
56:44
From
56:44
The
56:44
Enemy
56:45
Who
56:45
Triumphs
56:46
Over
56:46
The
56:47
Vicious
56:48
Attacks
56:49
That
56:49
Are
56:49
Designed
56:50
Against
56:50
Them
56:50
He
56:50
Is
56:51
The
56:51
Perfect
56:51
Figurehead
56:52
And
56:54
We
56:54
Have
56:54
To
56:55
Constantly
56:55
Remember
56:57
That
56:57
Because
56:59
We
57:00
Are
57:00
Tempted
57:01
Not
57:02
To
57:02
We're
57:04
Tempted

Faith
57:43
Yet
57:43
Maybe
57:44
Tonight
57:45
You're
57:45
Tempted
57:45
To
57:46
Think
57:46
That
57:46
The
57:46
Mire
57:47
That
57:47
You're
57:48
Trapped
57:48
In
57:48
The
57:49
Bog
57:49
Of
57:50
Sin
57:50
That
57:50
You're
57:51
Stuck
57:51
In
57:51
It's
57:53
Just
57:53
Too
57:53
Much

Get
57:58
You
57:58
Out
57:58
Of

That
57:59
That

Can't
58:00
Liberate
58:01
You
58:01
From

Assure
