  Speaker 2: going to break from the norm. I want you to
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: just continue with the Life Application Guide on your own,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: where we have those four key ways of applying this
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: lesson and we're going to go with direct teaching today. Okay,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: We're going to go with direct teaching today and begin
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: with a quote. Begin with a quote from eighteen sixty
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: nine eighteen sixty nine Review and Herald from John Nevins Andrews,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: and it reads, Christ stands at the head of creation.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: He stands at the head of creation, not as a
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: created being, but as the divine agent through whom all
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: things were made and are sustained. Do you realize that
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: even the food that you eat on a daily basis
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: comes because Jesus, the god Man, the one who created you,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: also took on human form to save us from our sins.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Can I say that the one who existed from eternity
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: past knew that on the twentieth day of February in
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, that you would be here and that
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: you would need food to eat. And it's because of him,
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: because of his not just his creatorship, which is enough,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: but also because of the fact that he redeemed you.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Because we deserve eternal death. Are you hearing where I'm
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: going with this? We deserve eternal death. And that means
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: that in the moment that we sinned the very first time,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: it disqualified us for anything besides eternal death. And so
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Jesus the Creator, Jesus the Redeemer. He stands at the
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: head of creation. And everything that you need, everything you have,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: everything you are, it only comes because of him. It
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: only comes because of him. In the book Evangelism, page
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: six hundred and fifteen, we read Jesus is the pre existent.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: I love that word. Look it up if you don't know.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: That means he existed from eternity past. He is the preexistent.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Now comes a bigger word, self existent. My God, Christ
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: is the preexistent, self existent of God. That means that
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: there was never a time that Jesus didn't exist. I
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: don't understand it. When I was young, I tried to
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: fathom eternity past. I tried to fathom it. I tried
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: to understand what it meant for God, the Father, God,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: the Son, God, the Holy Ghoes. I tried to figure
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: out how did they always exist? How is it that
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: there was never a time that they didn't exist? And
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: I got anxiety. I will promise you so, I'm now
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: even in the moment I went back there, when I
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: closed my eyes, I went back to the moment that
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: that anxiety cropped up because I could not understand it,
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: and so now I believe it by faith. I don't
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: try to understand it. Why would I worship a god
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: that I can master? Why would I worship a god
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: where there's not an infinity beyond whatever my understanding is currently?
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Why would I create a god and then bow down
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: and worship it? You see? And so Jesus is also
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: self existent. That means that there was no power that
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: came outside of Jesus Christ that makes him to exist.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: It is not the power of the Father that makes
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: Jesus exist. It is not the power of the Holy
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Ghost that makes Jesus exist. It is not some kind
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: of mystical astronomic power that causes Jesus to exist he
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: self existent. Anyway, let me keep reading. There never was
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: a time when he was not in close fellowship with
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: the eternal God. And I will say, our Father, Now,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: why is this important to me? Why do I always
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: sit on this fact so long? Well? Listen, hmm. Jesus
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: is described as the one who was the one who
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: is the one who is to come. That means that
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: at any time in the past in your bloodline, any
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: great great grand all the way back to Adam. Yeah,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: whatever was in your bloodline, Jesus was there and he
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: saw that that was the reality, and he knew that
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: you would suffer. He knew that you would have to
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: struggle through. He knew exactly what your situation would be.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: And because he's the one who was an eternity past,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: he understands what it takes to save you. Right now,
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: you understand where I'm going with this. He's the one
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: who is that means whatever you need in this moment
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: of your life. And if God extended your moment and
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: it's now again but later, did you hear what I
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: just said. I'm not talking about the candy. I'm talking about,
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: not the sweetie. I'm talking about if now is seven
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: minutes into our broadcast, and God delivers us and protects
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: us until the end, which will be ten minutes in
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: some seconds at the from the beginning of the broadcast,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: if at that time it's now again, He's here with
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: you now again, like now now now. Shout to the
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Jamaicans who know what I mean when I say no, no, no,
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: no no no no no no no no y'all come
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: no yes now, He's present, a very present help in
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: the time of trouble, and also the one who is
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: to come. So he sees your life afar off. He
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: knows exactly what you will encounter, and he's able to
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: protect you. He is able to keep you, he is
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: able to deliver you, he is able to keep you
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: from falling. You understand where I'm going with this, And
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: so God has been so good to allow me to
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: allow you to be in His presence, so that the
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: preexistent and eternal One can save us from our sins.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: And so our lesson number one. Our lesson number one
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: is Jesus does not leave room for partial belief, for
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: partial belief, and Jesus didn't present himself as merely an
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: insightful or inspirational person. His words, his claims, and his
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: actions demand a decision. He claimed divine identity. I know
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: that there are some people of different faith community, some
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: even who go to church with us on a regular basis,
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: who say that Jesus never claimed. That is not true.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: His words, claims, and actions demand a decision. He claimed
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: divine identity, He eternal existence and absolute authority. The Gospel
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: does not invite admiration. It calls for allegiance and so
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: we worship the Son of God because he's worthy. Make
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: it a great day, Peace. Thanks for joining us listening. Friends,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Always remember we cannot live by bread alone, but by
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: every word that comes from the mouth of God. This
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: has been your daily portion with El David Harris. Make
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: it a great day.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah,
