The Returning Lord Jesus · Stornoway Free Church of Scotland - Sermons

0:00
this morning and we pray that we might all know God's blessing. Special welcome to any who are
0:06
visiting with us and also to those who are joining with us online. The first thing I have to do is
0:11
to read this edict in connection with the call to the Reverend Callum Murdoch Smith and this has to
0:19
be read this morning and tonight as well. In name and by appointment of the free presbytery of the
0:24
Western Isles, I hereby intimate that in consequence of an application from this congregation,
0:31
the said presbytery have agreed to meet at Stornway Free Church on Wednesday 20th April at 7pm
0:37
for the purpose of moderating in a closed call to Reverend Callum Murdoch Smith to be the assistant
0:44
minister of this congregation. Reverend Callum MacLeod will preach and preside. Now you should
0:52
have the bulletin so just take your time going through it. Of course as you know the school,
1:00
because of the school holidays, the Sunday school is closed and starts again on the 24th of April.
1:06
Deacon's Court meeting tomorrow evening by Zoom and then you have a list of the meetings
1:13
throughout the week and again if we could maybe highlight with regard to the call to the Reverend
1:20
Callum Murdoch who just read the edict. But it is important that as many people as possible
1:27
could attend in person on Wednesday to Wednesday the 20th to sign the call so that the presbytery
1:35
can ascertain the level of support for the calling of Mr. Smith. And then it says,
1:41
if you are unable to be present you can sign a form known as a mandate authorising one of the elders
1:47
to add your name to the call. Separate mandate forms are used for communicant members and for regular
1:53
hearers who are not communicants. For all who are housebound or just not likely to attend the meeting,
2:00
your district elder will contact you and encourage for you to sign the relevant mandate form.
2:06
Please contact your district elder if you wish to sign a mandate form or are unsure about any of these matters.
2:15
And the deadline for completing the mandates is Friday, 15th, that's this Friday.
2:22
So take your time reading through all the items in the bulletin.
2:29
We'll begin our worship singing to God's praise from Psalm 1A. Psalm 1A. And sing psalms.
2:40
Psalm 1A.
2:46
Sing the whole psalm.
2:47
Blessed is the one who turns away from where the wicked walk, who does not stand in sinish paths
2:54
or sit with those who mock. Instead he finds God's holy law, his joy and great delight.
3:02
He makes the precept of the Lord his study day and night.
3:06
He prospers ever like a tree that's planted by a stream.
3:10
And in due season yields its fruit, its leaves are always green.
3:16
Not so the wicked.
3:17
They are like the chaff that's blown away.
3:19
They will not stand when judgment comes or with a righteous stay.
3:25
It is the Lord who sees and knows the way the righteous go.
3:28
But those who live an evil life, the Lord will overthrow.
3:33
Psalm 1A.
3:34
The whole psalm.
3:35
Blessed is the one who turns away.
3:36
Amen.
3:40
Blessed is the one who turns away.
3:49
Blessed is the one who insights 보지거나.
3:55
generating números and eternal victory.
4:12
Blessed is of course Ta Sekad evasり.
4:12
They are notetas ни atặng withños in the water.
4:17
His joy and great delight.
4:25
He makes the peace of the Lord.
4:33
His star he gave and died.
4:39
He was forever like a king.
4:47
He was planted by a seed.
4:54
And then you see some hills and strut.
5:01
His things are always green.
5:09
Not so the wicked lay our mind.
5:16
The child that's gone away.
5:22
He will not stand when judgment comes.
5:30
Or with the righteous day.
5:36
It is the Lord who seeks and knows.
5:45
The way the righteous goes.
5:50
But those who live an evil life.
5:59
The Lord will overthrow.
6:04
O Lord as we bow before you today.
6:12
We pray that we may indeed be made wise by the words that we sing.
6:17
We give thanks for your word.
6:20
That it is a word that makes wise for salvation.
6:24
It's a word that sheds a light on our path.
6:28
It's a word that encourages in the way that we should go.
6:31
And that helps us to understand really why we're here.
6:34
So many people are grappling with just even these big questions.
6:41
What's the purpose of my existence?
6:43
Why am I here?
6:44
But you have shown us in your word that it's very clear that we are here for your glory's sake.
6:51
And that it is our great purpose is to glorify God and to enjoy him forever.
6:58
And it's only as we come into your word that we're able to understand that.
7:01
And you have made this possible for us in and through your son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
7:06
We give thanks, O Lord, that you've shown us a way of salvation.
7:11
Because otherwise we couldn't work it out ourselves.
7:14
We give thanks, O Lord, for the fact that you are the great, majestic, glorious God.
7:20
The God whose knowledge is beyond our understanding.
7:24
The God whose ways are beyond our understanding.
7:28
Because I'm sure every single one of us here at some point or another,
7:32
we have to say that we're confused and baffled by the providence of God.
7:38
Sometimes we would say it doesn't make sense to us.
7:42
And yet help us to have the faith to look beyond this.
7:46
And to know that you know even when we don't.
7:50
And that there is a purpose behind everything.
7:53
We're told that there is a purpose in everything under heaven.
7:56
And we give thanks, Lord, that you are able to turn the things which are so bad and painful.
8:03
And the things which are so disappointing and hurtful.
8:06
And that you're able to bring good out of it.
8:09
Not that there's good sometimes.
8:11
Often there's no good in and of itself.
8:14
In what the experience is that we may go through.
8:18
But, Lord, you're able afterwards to bring something out of it.
8:23
And so we pray that we may indeed realize that you work in ways that are mysterious.
8:30
And grant us the faith to see it.
8:32
I'm sure that many, when they looked on Jesus on the cross,
8:36
they saw that as the end of everything they had hoped in and believed in.
8:40
And yet his very death was to lead on to the resurrection.
8:44
It was to lead on into the breaking forth of the massive movement of the Christian faith.
8:51
And so we pray that we may see from these things the way, the mysterious way that so often you work.
8:59
We pray that you'll bless us all here today.
9:01
We all need you.
9:02
We're all here with our own variety of needs.
9:05
Sometimes these needs are physical.
9:07
Sometimes they're mental.
9:09
Sometimes they're spiritual.
9:10
Sometimes they're a collection of all.
9:13
Sometimes they're emotional.
9:14
And we pray in all the different situations that people go through with regard to relationship, with regard to work.
9:23
Pray for those maybe who have lost work or can't find work just now.
9:28
We pray, Lord, that you'll open doors for them.
9:30
We pray especially for our young people in a very challenging time.
9:35
Not so long ago it seemed a time where there were so many opportunities.
9:38
Yet everything has changed.
9:41
We live in a world that is forever changing.
9:44
And often we cannot keep up with the change that is taking place.
9:50
And there is such a degree of uncertainty about everything and with everything just now.
9:55
It's a hard time.
9:56
So we pray especially for our young people that you will be with them.
9:59
And that you will grant them a peace in their mind.
10:02
There's so many people filled with anxiety and uncertainty.
10:06
And we pray that into all of this that your peace will come.
10:11
And that you'll grant a sense of your sovereign control even in what looks to be out of control.
10:19
Lord, we pray for every age group.
10:23
For all the different age groups in life.
10:26
And we ask, Lord, that you'll be with them.
10:28
Be with the elderly and those who no longer have the ability to get around and about.
10:33
And who are maybe housebound.
10:36
We pray for them.
10:37
And we give thanks, Lord, for all the care.
10:40
We give thanks for our care homes and the caring in our communities.
10:44
And we are so privileged to have these blessings.
10:48
And we pray for our elderly.
10:51
And we ask, Lord, that you will be with them.
10:54
Prepare them for the great change that will take place, I say, near the end of life.
11:00
We remember those who have experienced sorrow and pain through bereavement and loss.
11:07
Death is never far away.
11:08
It hits our homes.
11:10
It hits our families.
11:12
It hits our communities.
11:14
Pray for the family of the Lady and Campbell funeral we've had this weekend.
11:19
We pray for Amanda and all the family.
11:21
Lord, we commit them to your care and keeping.
11:23
And ask that you will bind up their broken hearts and that you will help them to be able to deal with the empty place and the silent voice.
11:34
Oh, Lord, our God, we realize that death is a great enemy.
11:39
We pray for the family of D.R. McLeod.
11:42
And we pray for Maggie and all the family just now as they mourn his passing.
11:47
And we pray for all families just now who are mourning the loss of loved ones.
11:51
We ask, Lord, for those who are ill.
11:54
We again remember Duncan McLean and Danny MacArthur.
11:58
And there are many, Lord, that we know are laid aside.
12:01
We pray that your gracious hand will be upon them, that you'll draw close to them and reveal yourself to them.
12:09
Oh, Lord, we pray that you will bless us as a nation.
12:12
Bless us, Lord, in all our leadership, whether it be in Westminster or in Holyrood or here locally in the council.
12:20
Grant wisdom and guidance to our leaders.
12:23
Oh, Lord, we pray that you will instill something of your wisdom and grace into their hearts to lead in the right way.
12:32
Lord, we remember the situation in Ukraine and the horrors that are unfolding before us.
12:36
And there are no words to describe some of what we hear and what we see.
12:42
And probably we've only seen a fraction of what has actually taken place.
12:47
Oh, Lord, we pray that you will bring peace and that you will halt the oppressor.
12:53
Where we see evil at work.
12:55
And where we see nations that do not know the truth.
13:00
Where the truth is hidden from them.
13:03
Lord, we pray for nations that are suffering real oppression.
13:08
And we pray for your people there.
13:10
We pray for the church in Ukraine.
13:11
And we pray for the church in Russia as well.
13:13
Because we know that there are many in Russia who do know the truth.
13:19
And many indeed who have protested against what is happening.
13:22
Oh, Lord, our God, we pray that into this world where there is so much unsettledness.
13:30
And where there is so much conflict.
13:32
We pray for the Yemen.
13:33
Lord, we pray for your people throughout this world.
13:37
Particularly in the dark areas.
13:39
Your word tells us that there is cruelty in the dark places of the earth.
13:44
Oh, Lord, we pray that the light of your gospel will shine into places and into people's hearts.
13:51
Do us good then, we pray, and cleanse us from our sin.
13:54
In Jesus' name we ask it.
13:55
Amen.
13:59
I was going to say a wee word to the young folk.
14:02
There's no Sunday school just now.
14:03
But there's some young folk out today.
14:05
And I may have mentioned this, but I was just reflecting on it yesterday.
14:14
Many years ago, I think Norman would probably just have been about five.
14:20
And maybe what, but maybe he would be about seven.
14:22
We were on holiday in Scalpy at the time.
14:24
We were in doubt fishing with our granduncle, Donald.
14:29
And after going out for a wee bit, we all had lines.
14:34
We let down the lines with half a dozen hooks on the lines.
14:36
And it was great because there was quite a lot of mackerel to be caught.
14:40
There was saith and mackerel.
14:42
And of course, as you know, the mackerel gave a big kick.
14:45
And sometimes, Maria and Norman were struggling with the lines because there would be half a dozen mackerel on them.
14:52
And then all of a sudden, Norman gave out this shout and he said, help.
14:55
And there were two or three mackerel, but there was a huge lice on the end, on the last line.
15:03
So when we were pulling it in, he was screaming, it's a salmon, it's a salmon.
15:07
No, I said, it's not a salmon, I'm afraid.
15:09
It's a lice.
15:11
And Marie caught a lice.
15:12
It was great fishing.
15:14
Marie caught a lice as well.
15:15
And she gave it to her grandant because I remember when we went, she said, I'll get you a fish.
15:21
I'll get you a good fish.
15:21
So she gave the fish to the grandant.
15:24
But what I'm coming to is this.
15:28
And I'll have to stress that he doesn't do this now.
15:31
But he was telling everybody, Norman was telling everybody about the fish that he got.
15:37
And that fish, every time he told, grew.
15:40
So that first it was this size.
15:43
And then, of course, it was this size.
15:45
And I saw him out in the garden.
15:47
There were another couple of young people.
15:48
And I saw his hands out like that.
15:50
But so when he came in, I said, were you telling them about the fish?
15:55
Oh, yes.
15:56
And I thought, so often in life, we do that sort of thing where we sort of exaggerate just to make it a little better.
16:04
We like to make the story.
16:06
We maybe add a little on just to make the story a little more exciting.
16:10
Or what we would think would add a little bit of shine to the story.
16:16
But, you know, there's one story that we don't ever, ever need to exaggerate in any shape or form.
16:23
And that is a great gospel story.
16:27
Because we couldn't add anything to it.
16:32
It is perfect.
16:34
What Jesus did when he came into this world to die for us in our place.
16:40
And to take our sin upon himself.
16:43
And to give us forgiveness and peace with God.
16:48
And give us a sense of God's love.
16:51
And God's purpose in our heart.
16:53
You know, that's the greatest thing that could ever be done in the world.
16:58
And we can't make that story any better.
17:01
It's the greatest story in the world.
17:04
So we can't exaggerate it.
17:06
Can't make it any bigger than it is.
17:09
And Jesus tells us that if we believe in him.
17:12
Then that he will take us home to heaven with himself.
17:16
And that is beyond our understanding.
17:21
We couldn't even begin.
17:23
We can't exaggerate about heaven.
17:25
Because it is so extraordinary that it is beyond our understanding.
17:31
In fact, the Bible kind of says, I hasn't seen nor ear heard what God has prepared for his people.
17:39
It is so incredible that it is beyond our senses.
17:44
It's beyond our mind.
17:45
Beyond our understanding.
17:48
So let us give thanks to God for what he has done for us.
17:53
And let us remember that this is what we have here in the gospel.
17:58
We don't need to add anything to it.
18:00
We can't make it any better than it is.
18:03
It's the most wonderful, wonderful story.
18:06
The most wonderful gift the world has ever known.
18:11
Let's say the Lord's Prayer.
18:13
Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
18:17
Thy kingdom come.
18:19
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
18:22
Give us this day our daily bread.
18:25
And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.
18:28
And lead us not into temptation.
18:31
But deliver us from evil.
18:34
For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory forever.
18:38
Amen.
18:40
We're going to read God's word now in the book of Revelation.
18:43
Revelation chapter 1.
18:47
Revelation chapter 1.
18:49
Revelation chapter 1.
18:49
Revelation 1.
19:01
Last book in the Bible.
19:02
The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things that must soon take place.
19:11
He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, who bore witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw.
19:24
Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy.
19:27
And blessed are those who hear and who keep what is written in it, for the time is near.
19:33
John, to the seven churches at Aranasia.
19:38
Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come.
19:44
And from the seven spirits who are before his throne.
19:47
And from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead and the ruler of the kings on earth.
19:54
Amen.
19:55
To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood.
20:00
And made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father.
20:05
To him be glory and dominion forever and ever.
20:07
Amen.
20:09
Behold, he is coming with the clouds.
20:12
And every eye will see him.
20:14
Even those who pushed him and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him.
20:20
Even so.
20:21
Amen.
20:21
I am the Alpha and the Omega, says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.
20:32
I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that are in Jesus,
20:40
was in the island called Patmos on account of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.
20:45
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day.
20:49
And I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet saying,
20:54
Write what you have seen in a book and send it to the seven churches,
20:58
to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.
21:07
Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me.
21:12
And on turning, I saw seven golden lampstands.
21:16
And in the midst of the lampstands, one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden sash round his chest.
21:25
The hairs on his head were white like wool, as white as snow.
21:30
His eyes were like a flame of fire.
21:32
His feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace.
21:38
And his voice was like the roar of many waters.
21:41
In his right hand he held seven stars.
21:45
From his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword.
21:48
And his face was like the sun shining in full strength.
21:53
When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead.
21:56
But he laid his right hand on me, saying, Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one.
22:04
I died, and behold, I am alive forevermore.
22:08
And I have the keys of death and haze.
22:11
Write therefore the things that you have seen, those that are and those that are to take place after this.
22:17
As for the mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands,
22:25
the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.
22:33
Amen.
22:34
And may God bless to us this reading of his own holy word.
22:38
We're going to sing again from Psalm 96.
22:40
Again, let's sing Psalms.
22:42
Psalm 96.
22:43
We're going to sing verses 1 to 9.
22:45
Psalm 96.
22:48
And sing Psalms.
22:50
That's on page 1 to 6.
22:52
We sing verses 1 to 9.
22:57
Oh, sing a new song to the Lord.
23:00
Sing praises to his name.
23:03
And his salvation day by day let all the earth proclaim.
23:08
His glory and his mighty deeds to every land declare.
23:11
How great and awesome is the Lord, with whom no gods compare.
23:17
For other gods are wood and stone.
23:20
The Lord made heaven's height.
23:22
All power and majesty are his.
23:24
He dwells in glorious light.
23:27
All nations to the Lord ascribe the glory that is due.
23:31
Glory and strength ascribe to God and praise his name anew.
23:36
Enter his courts with joy and bring an offering with you.
23:39
Worship the Lord in holy fear.
23:42
All earth before him bow.

For other rocks and wood and stone
25:10
The Lord made heaven's pride
25:18
Of power and majesty are his
25:27
He dwells in glorious light
25:35
All nations do

All earth before him
26:41
Let's turn now to the chapter we read in Revelation chapter 1
26:57
And reading again at verse 7
27:00
Behold he is coming with the clouds
27:04
And every eye will see him
27:06
Even those who pushed him
27:08
And all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him
27:12
Even so
27:13
Amen
27:14
The book of Revelation is quite an extraordinary book
27:23
It's full of great visual imagery
27:27
In many ways things terrible and great
27:31
Sometimes when you read it
27:32
You're left completely baffled by it
27:36
Because of all the imagery that's in it
27:39
But it's a very powerful book
27:42
Because it shows us
27:45
That God is actually in control of everything
27:48
That's one of the great features that comes through
27:52
From this book as you read it and study it
27:54
Is that you see the control of God
27:57
Over all the nations
27:59
Over all history
28:01
Over all events
28:02
And that God is actually working everything
28:05
To a predetermined end
28:07
And that's something we mustn't lose sight of
28:10
It's quite an extraordinary thing
28:12
To lay hold upon
28:14
And I suppose one of the great questions
28:17
We have to ask
28:18
Because this book
28:20
The book of Revelation
28:21
Deals a lot with the future
28:22
And people often have a fascination
28:26
With the future
28:27
I suppose they have a fascination
28:29
With the good things of the future
28:30
We obviously wouldn't want to know
28:33
If we wanted to know what the future held
28:35
And it was full of bad things
28:37
We wouldn't want to know it
28:38
But there is a kind of a fascination
28:40
With people with regard to
28:42
What is the future?
28:43
What does the future hold?
28:44
For me
28:45
But I would turn it this way
28:49
And say it's very important
28:50
To find out where you stand
28:53
With regard to Jesus Christ
28:55
Because as we read this book
28:58
He is at the very centre of it
29:00
It is a book about Christ
29:02
The book of Revelation
29:04
And it is so important
29:06
That we are with Jesus
29:08
Because when you read through the book
29:11
The blessings
29:12
That come to those who are with Jesus
29:15
Are great
29:16
Whereas if we are out of Jesus
29:18
It is not too good
29:20
And that is why it is so important
29:22
That we examine
29:23
Where we stand even right now
29:25
Is our future
29:26
As we journey on in life
29:29
Is our future rooted in Jesus?
29:32
And it will only be rooted in Jesus
29:33
If we are with Jesus right now
29:36
In the present
29:37
And there is always an opportunity
29:39
Wherever we gather together like this
29:41
To ask Jesus to be Lord
29:44
And to be King
29:46
King of our lives
29:48
Because that is absolute key
29:50
To life as it were itself
29:52
Now this word revelation
29:55
Means very simply
29:57
An unveiling
29:58
To take the veil away
30:00
And that is what the Lord has done
30:02
Where the veil is opened somewhat
30:06
And we are given little insights
30:07
Little glimpses
30:09
And the book of Revelation
30:10
While it deals with the future
30:12
It also deals with history
30:14
There is a merging
30:15
Of things that have been
30:17
With a merging of things
30:19
That are yet to be
30:20
And so as we read this book
30:25
As I said
30:27
It gives us great comfort
30:28
To know that God
30:30
Is in absolute control of everything
30:32
Now the person who was given
30:35
This revelation of course
30:36
Was the Apostle John
30:37
And we know that John
30:40
Was a great favourite of Jesus
30:41
Remember that Jesus had 12 disciples
30:44
And there was an inner three
30:46
Of Peter, James and John
30:48
And of that three
30:49
John seemed to
30:51
Be Jesus' favourite
30:53
Because it tells us
30:55
It's John himself
30:56
Who talks about it
30:57
He talks about the disciple
30:59
Whom Jesus loved
31:00
Of course Jesus loved
31:02
All the disciples
31:02
But it would appear
31:04
That Jesus and John
31:06
Had a closer relationship
31:09
Than any of the others
31:12
And we often think of John
31:14
As the disciple of love
31:16
But he wasn't always
31:17
Because the young John
31:20
He both himself
31:22
And James
31:23
Were termed
31:24
The sons of thunder
31:26
And that was probably
31:28
A quite an apt description
31:29
Of the kind of people
31:30
That they were
31:31
It would appear to me
31:32
That the like of John
31:34
Was quite a
31:35
Quite a volatile character
31:37
Maybe quite an angry man
31:40
And we have a description
31:41
An example of John
31:43
When he asked Jesus
31:46
If he would call down fire
31:49
On the Samaritans
31:50
In the same way as
31:51
Elijah had called down fire
31:54
And Jesus rebuked John
31:56
And he said
31:56
You don't know what you're asking
31:58
So we see that
31:59
Here's this man
32:00
This disciple
32:01
The apostle of love
32:04
That early on
32:05
He was quite happy
32:07
That a group of Samaritans
32:09
Would be consumed by fire
32:11
And again
32:14
John would have been
32:15
One of the disciples
32:16
Who tried to chase
32:17
The women away
32:18
Who came with
32:19
The little children
32:20
The babies
32:21
And of course
32:23
Jesus again
32:24
Rebuked the disciples
32:25
So John wasn't always
32:28
This great man of love
32:30
That he later became
32:31
But as you read through
32:33
The Bible
32:34
And as you come to
32:35
John's letters
32:36
First, second, third John
32:40
We find there that
32:41
These letters
32:42
Are full of love
32:44
Of God's love to us
32:45
And our love to and for God
32:47
And our love for one another
32:49
And how key to life
32:51
Love is
32:52
Very different
32:54
To the early John
32:55
And that's how it should be
32:57
In the Christian life
32:58
Because the Christian
33:00
Is somebody who should be
33:01
Developing
33:02
And maturing
33:03
And we shouldn't remain
33:06
Exactly the same
33:07
As we always were
33:08
There will always be
33:11
I suppose
33:12
Flashes of the old
33:13
Will manifest itself
33:15
But there should be
33:15
A greater movement
33:17
Towards a resemblance
33:20
Of Jesus Christ
33:21
It's the same with Peter
33:22
Peter was the impetuous Peter
33:24
He's always in a rush
33:25
He would always speak
33:27
Before he actually thought
33:29
Of what he should say
33:30
Used to get us
33:31
Sometimes in trouble
33:32
Sometimes great things
33:34
Came out of his mouth
33:34
But sometimes
33:35
Wrong things came out
33:37
And yet when you come
33:40
To read
33:41
Peter's writings
33:42
Later on
33:44
He seems to be
33:45
Almost
33:46
There's an incredible
33:49
Patience in his life
33:51
Where he's extolling
33:52
The virtues of being
33:53
Patient
33:54
Under trial
33:55
And under suffering
33:56
So different
33:57
To the earlier Peter
33:59
And so it should be
34:01
In our case as well
34:02
That we should be
34:03
Developing
34:04
And maturing
34:05
As we go on
34:07
Often we don't see it
34:08
Sometimes we see it
34:10
The very reverse
34:11
As we look at our own lives
34:13
We sometimes think
34:14
You know
34:15
I think I was more patient
34:18
I think I was more loving
34:19
I think I had more faith
34:21
And all these things
34:22
But that's
34:23
Very often how it is
34:24
As we go on
34:25
In the Christian life
34:26
That
34:26
As we see more
34:28
As we get more light
34:30
We see more of
34:33
Really what's inside
34:34
Ourselves
34:35
And the more we see
34:37
Of what's actually
34:38
With inside ourselves
34:39
The worse often
34:41
It is
34:42
And so
34:43
We find here
34:44
That Jesus
34:45
Has given
34:46
The Lord has given
34:47
These
34:48
This great
34:48
Revelation to John
34:50
Where there's this
34:52
Unveiling
34:53
And it's interesting
34:54
In the Bible
34:55
How often you will find
34:56
That those who walk
34:59
Closest to the Lord
35:00
Are given the greatest
35:02
Insight
35:03
And given the greatest
35:05
Revelation
35:05
You have for instance
35:08
The life of Enoch
35:09
Way back
35:10
One of the first
35:11
Enoch we're told
35:13
Walked with God
35:14
In other words
35:15
His life
35:15
Was a life of
35:17
Communion with God
35:19
He really
35:20
Made it
35:21
The goal of his life
35:22
To walk closely
35:23
With God
35:24
And remember
35:26
What it tells us
35:26
He was not
35:27
For God
35:28
Took him
35:28
One day
35:28
God just took him
35:29
Enoch never died
35:31
God just took him
35:32
Straight
35:33
To heaven
35:34
So here is
35:36
Somebody who
35:37
Walked with God
35:39
Again we find
35:39
Noah
35:40
Noah
35:41
In his generation
35:42
We're told
35:43
Was a man
35:44
Who found
35:44
Grace
35:45
In the eyes
35:46
Of the Lord
35:47
Noah was a
35:49
Really
35:49
Really
35:51
Close
35:52
Walking
35:52
Believer
35:53
With the Lord
35:54
And of course
35:55
We know
35:56
How God
35:56
Delivered
35:57
Noah
35:58
In the flood
35:59
Again we find
36:01
The like of
36:01
Abraham
36:02
Abraham was
36:03
Termed the
36:03
Friend of God
36:04
Because again
36:06
Abraham walked
36:06
Very closely
36:07
With God
36:08
And we find
36:09
That God
36:10
Gave him
36:11
Great revelation
36:12
Of the future
36:12
And in fact
36:14
From Abraham
36:15
He became
36:16
The father
36:16
Of the
36:17
Jewish race
36:18
And God
36:19
Said that
36:20
Through him
36:20
The nations
36:21
All the nations
36:22
Of the world
36:22
Would be blessed
36:23
Which of course
36:24
Was talking
36:25
About the coming
36:26
Of the Lord
36:27
Jesus Christ
36:28
Moses was
36:30
Another man
36:30
Of God
36:31
He walked
36:31
Closely
36:32
With God
36:32
Moses was
36:34
Given insights
36:34
Into the glory
36:35
Of God
36:36
That probably
36:37
Possibly nobody
36:38
Else
36:38
Or very
36:40
Very
36:40
Very few
36:41
Were ever
36:41
Given to see
36:42
Remember how
36:43
When Moses
36:44
Came back
36:44
Down from
36:45
The mountain
36:46
His face
36:47
Shone
36:48
So brightly
36:49
From having
36:50
Been in the
36:51
Presence of God
36:52
For 40 days
36:53
That the Israelites
36:54
Couldn't look on him
36:55
He had to put
36:56
A veil over his face
36:57
Because he was
36:58
Shining so brightly
36:59
From having been
37:01
In the presence
37:01
Of the Lord
37:02
You think of Elijah
37:04
Elijah was another
37:06
Man who
37:07
Walked so close
37:08
To God
37:09
And God gave
37:09
Elijah great
37:11
Insights
37:12
And great
37:12
Revelation
37:13
And again
37:14
Honored
37:15
Elijah
37:15
Just like
37:16
Enoch
37:16
By taking him
37:17
Straight to glory
37:18
Without going
37:19
Through death
37:20
Again
37:22
Daniel
37:22
Daniel was a man
37:23
We're told
37:24
Was beloved
37:25
Of God
37:26
And what did
37:27
God do for
37:27
Daniel
37:28
Well he gave
37:28
Him great
37:29
Honour
37:29
But he also
37:31
Gave him
37:31
Great revelation
37:32
And in fact
37:33
There's no other
37:35
Book in the
37:35
Bible so closely
37:36
Ressembling the
37:37
Book of Revelation
37:38
As the book
37:39
Of Daniel
37:40
And there's a
37:41
Lot of things
37:41
Actually tie in
37:42
Together
37:43
As God gave
37:44
Daniel
37:45
Great revelations
37:47
Regarding
37:48
The future
37:49
And there is
37:51
No doubt
37:51
Whatever
37:52
That the
37:52
Closer
37:53
That you
37:54
Walk
37:54
With God
37:55
The more
37:56
Light
37:57
You will
37:57
Get
37:58
The clearer
37:59
Your vision
38:00
Will be
38:01
Of the
38:02
Lord
38:02
The more
38:02
That you
38:03
Will see
38:04
Him
38:04
And then
38:05
We find
38:06
Here that
38:07
This verse
38:08
Speaks very
38:09
Much about
38:10
The return
38:11
Of the
38:11
Lord Jesus
38:12
Christ
38:13
And of course
38:14
The return
38:14
Of Jesus
38:15
Christ is at
38:16
The very
38:16
Heart of
38:17
Everything
38:17
Even the
38:18
Lord's
38:18
Supper
38:18
You know
38:19
In the
38:19
Lord's
38:20
Supper
38:20
We remember
38:21
The death
38:22
Of Jesus
38:23
But we
38:23
Always do
38:24
So in
38:25
The light
38:26
Of his
38:26
Coming
38:27
Again
38:27
Because it
38:28
Says when
38:29
We have
38:29
The
38:30
When we
38:30
Eat this
38:31
Bread
38:31
And drink
38:32
This wine
38:32
You show
38:34
For the
38:34
Lord's
38:35
Death
38:35
Till he
38:37
Come
38:37
Because he's
38:38
Coming
38:38
Again
38:38
So part
38:39
Of what
38:39
We're
38:40
Doing
38:40
At the
38:40
Supper
38:41
Is not
38:41
Only
38:41
Reminding
38:42
Ourselves
38:43
Of what
38:43
Jesus
38:43
Has done
38:44
But of
38:45
What Jesus
38:46
Is yet
38:46
Going to
38:47
Do
38:47
And he's
38:48
Going to
38:48
Return
38:49
Again
38:50
And so
38:51
This verse
38:51
Begins
38:52
Very simply
38:53
By saying
38:53
Behold
38:55
Or look
38:56
It's a word
38:57
That we often
38:57
Find in
38:58
The bible
38:59
And the
39:00
Lord is
39:01
Saying here
39:02
Look
39:02
Look
39:03
Closely
39:04
Not a
39:05
Passing
39:06
Glance
39:06
But really
39:07
Study
39:08
Look at
39:09
This
39:09
This is
39:10
Something
39:10
That is
39:11
Going to
39:12
Happen
39:12
And
39:14
It's
39:16
One of
39:17
The things
39:17
That we
39:18
Really have
39:19
To lay
39:19
Hold upon
39:20
Is the
39:21
Fact that
39:22
Jesus
39:22
Is coming
39:23
Again
39:24
And one
39:25
Of the
39:26
Things
39:26
Or one
39:26
Of the
39:27
Reasons
39:27
Why so
39:28
Often
39:28
We
39:29
Maybe don't
39:31
Think so
39:31
Much about
39:32
It
39:32
Is because
39:33
Of the
39:33
Delay
39:34
In his
39:35
Coming
39:35
You know
39:36
When there's
39:36
A long
39:37
Delay
39:37
In something
39:38
Happening
39:38
Initially
39:40
When you're
39:40
Told something
39:41
Is going
39:41
To happen
39:41
You're
39:42
All kind
39:42
Of
39:42
Fired
39:43
Up
39:43
And keyed
39:43
Up
39:44
And you're
39:44
All kind
39:44
Of
39:44
On
39:46
Almost like
39:47
A high
39:47
Alert
39:47
Ready
39:48
For
39:48
But then
39:50
When
39:51
Whenever
39:51
Whatever
39:52
It is
39:52
There's a
39:53
Delay
39:53
We
39:55
We sort
39:55
We lose
39:55
We lose
39:55
That edge
39:56
And we
39:56
Become
39:57
Maybe
39:57
More
39:58
Complacent
39:58
And we
39:59
Lose
40:00
The urgency
40:00
We lose
40:01
The edge
40:01
And we
40:02
Just
40:02
Sometimes
40:03
Maybe even
40:04
Forget about
40:04
It
40:05
And that is
40:06
Certainly
40:06
True with
40:07
Regard
40:07
To the
40:08
Coming
40:09
Again
40:09
Of the Lord
40:10
Jesus
40:10
Christ
40:10
Because I
40:13
Know that
40:14
There will be
40:14
Many times
40:15
As a
40:15
Christian
40:15
You will
40:16
Think about
40:16
It but
40:17
There's
40:17
Many times
40:18
Probably we
40:18
Don't
40:19
You know
40:19
Back in the
40:20
Early church
40:21
For instance
40:22
In the church
40:22
In Thessalonica
40:23
They were
40:24
So convinced
40:25
Of the
40:25
Return of
40:26
Jesus
40:26
Any day
40:27
That some
40:28
Of them
40:28
Had stopped
40:28
Working
40:29
And they
40:30
Said you
40:30
Know Jesus
40:31
Is coming
40:31
He's probably
40:32
Going to
40:32
Come today
40:33
And the
40:34
Next day
40:34
They'd say
40:34
Oh I
40:35
Believe he's
40:35
Going to
40:35
Come today
40:36
And so
40:37
They said
40:37
There's no
40:37
Point in
40:38
Us working
40:38
They had
40:39
Given up
40:39
Paul told
40:40
Them no
40:40
No
40:41
Keep working
40:42
Until he
40:42
Comes
40:43
We don't
40:44
Know when
40:44
He's
40:44
Coming
40:44
So
40:46
It's
40:47
There's
40:48
This idea
40:48
Now
40:49
There's been
40:49
Various
40:50
Periods
40:50
Within the
40:51
Church
40:51
Back in
40:52
the
40:53
Late 1800s
40:54
Or the
40:54
Times
40:55
When like
40:55
For instance
40:56
The Boner
40:56
Brothers
40:57
Horatio
40:57
Andrew
40:58
Boner
40:59
They lived
41:00
The church
41:00
For a
41:01
Period
41:01
They lived
41:02
Very much
41:02
In the
41:03
Light of
41:04
The return
41:05
Of the
41:05
Lord Jesus
41:06
Christ
41:07
And it's
41:08
Good that
41:08
We should
41:09
We should
41:10
Have our
41:10
Focus
41:11
There
41:11
Because one
41:12
Day
41:13
He is
41:14
Of course
41:14
Going to
41:15
Come
41:16
But the
41:17
Delay of
41:18
Caution is
41:18
Coming
41:19
Can make
41:20
People very
41:20
Cynical
41:21
And many
41:22
People
41:22
Dismiss
41:24
It
41:24
And in
41:25
Fact Peter
41:26
Talks
41:26
About that
41:27
He says
41:28
In the
41:28
Last days
41:29
There will
41:29
Be mockers
41:30
Saying where
41:30
Is the
41:31
Return of
41:31
Jesus
41:32
And they'll
41:32
Say they
41:33
Dismiss all
41:33
These things
41:34
Where is the
41:35
Promise of
41:36
His coming
41:36
Well the
41:38
Thing is he
41:39
Is coming
41:39
Again
41:40
And one
41:42
Day he's
41:42
Just going
41:43
To return
41:43
All of a
41:44
Sudden
41:44
Because that's
41:45
What the
41:45
Bible tells
41:46
Us
41:46
It's going
41:47
To be a
41:47
Sudden
41:48
Return
41:48
And it's a
41:50
Question you
41:51
And I have
41:51
To ask
41:52
Ourselves
41:52
How will
41:53
It be
41:54
If Jesus
41:55
Returns
41:56
Today
41:56
Jesus
41:57
Returns
41:58
Tonight
41:58
Am I
41:59
Ready
41:59
To meet
42:00
With him
42:01
Well if
42:03
You're not
42:03
Thank the
42:04
Lord that
42:05
You've been
42:05
Spared
42:06
To be
42:07
Ready
42:07
So he
42:08
Gives you
42:08
This
42:09
Opportunity
42:09
Again
42:10
To get
42:11
Ready
42:12
To meet
42:12
With
42:13
Himself
42:14
Because he
42:15
Is as we
42:16
Say he's
42:17
Coming
42:17
Again
42:18
And it
42:18
Says behold
42:20
He is
42:21
Coming
42:21
And the
42:23
Language actually
42:24
Speaks of an
42:25
Event that
42:26
Has already
42:26
Started
42:27
So that
42:29
Everything that
42:30
Is happening
42:31
In this
42:31
World is a
42:33
Build up
42:34
To the
42:35
Return of
42:36
The Lord
42:36
Jesus
42:36
All that's
42:37
Happening just
42:38
Now
42:38
You know
42:39
Sometimes we
42:40
Look at this
42:40
World and
42:42
We just look
42:42
And we say
42:43
My word
42:43
We're living
42:44
In a
42:45
World of
42:45
Chaos
42:46
A world
42:47
Of incredible
42:48
Uncertainty
42:49
We just
42:50
Don't know
42:51
What's
42:51
Happening
42:51
Our world
42:53
In the last
42:53
Three years
42:54
Has really
42:55
Turned upside
42:56
Down
42:57
And in
42:58
Some ways
42:59
We think
42:59
Maybe it'll
43:00
Never be
43:00
Quite the
43:00
Same as
43:01
It was
43:01
Pre-COVID
43:02
But between
43:03
COVID and
43:04
The war in
43:05
Ukraine and
43:05
All these
43:05
Things we're
43:06
Seeing an
43:07
Ever-changing
43:08
World and
43:09
There's all
43:09
Kinds of
43:10
Things and
43:10
There's all
43:11
Financial pressures
43:12
Have started to
43:13
Bear down on us
43:14
And all kinds
43:15
Of things
43:16
And we're
43:17
Saying what's
43:18
Going on
43:19
But you know
43:20
Over and above
43:21
All this
43:21
All the events
43:23
That are taking
43:24
Place is all
43:25
Part of the
43:27
The fulfillment
43:29
The climactic
43:30
Event which
43:32
Is going to be
43:32
The return of
43:34
The Lord
43:34
Jesus Christ
43:35
And you know
43:37
There has to be
43:38
A return of
43:39
Jesus
43:39
Jesus
43:39
Because one
43:41
Of the
43:41
Things that
43:42
Jesus is
43:43
Going to
43:43
Do is
43:44
He's going
43:44
To set
43:45
Up a
43:45
Judgment
43:45
And there
43:46
Has to
43:47
Be
43:47
The world
43:48
Cries out
43:49
For judgment
43:50
Because there
43:51
Are so many
43:52
Issues to be
43:53
Addressed
43:53
When you
43:54
Look at
43:55
All the
43:56
Injustices
43:57
That have
43:58
Taken place
43:58
In this
43:59
World
43:59
That are
44:00
Taking place
44:00
Right now
44:01
When you
44:02
Think of
44:02
All that is
44:03
Wrong
44:03
In this
44:04
World
44:05
It cannot
44:06
Go
44:06
Just
44:07
And
44:07
Ignored
44:08
And the
44:09
Fact that
44:10
God
44:10
Maybe isn't
44:11
Intervening
44:12
Just now
44:12
Doesn't mean
44:13
That he's
44:13
Not taking
44:13
Note
44:14
But one
44:15
Day
44:15
There is
44:16
To be
44:16
A judgment
44:17
Of all
44:18
And it's
44:19
A solemn
44:20
Thought
44:20
But that's
44:22
That is
44:23
What is
44:24
Going to
44:24
Happen
44:24
And then
44:25
We see
44:26
The manner
44:27
Of his
44:29
Coming
44:29
It tells
44:30
Us
44:30
Behold
44:31
He is
44:31
Coming
44:31
With the
44:32
Clouds
44:33
And it's
44:35
Going to
44:36
Be very
44:36
Obvious
44:37
That Jesus
44:37
Is coming
44:38
This time
44:39
Is going
44:39
To be
44:40
Very
44:40
Very
44:40
Different
44:41
To his
44:41
Coming
44:41
Last time
44:42
Because when
44:43
He came
44:44
Last time
44:44
It's as if
44:45
He just
44:46
Slipped in
44:46
His glory
44:48
Was veiled
44:49
And he came
44:50
As a babe
44:50
Of Bethlehem
44:51
And very
44:53
Few
44:53
Understood
44:55
Or grasped
44:56
Actually who
44:56
He was
44:57
This time
44:58
It couldn't
44:59
Be more
45:00
Different
45:00
Because he
45:02
Is not
45:02
Coming as
45:03
A suffering
45:03
Servant
45:04
But he
45:05
Is coming
45:05
As the
45:06
Sovereign
45:06
Lord
45:07
And king
45:07
Of kings
45:08
And he's
45:09
Coming in
45:10
The clouds
45:11
Of heaven
45:11
And of course
45:13
The clouds
45:14
Of heaven
45:14
Are his
45:14
Chariot
45:15
And the
45:15
Clouds
45:16
Of heaven
45:16
Are always
45:16
Symbolic
45:17
It's always
45:18
Symbolic
45:19
Of the glory
45:20
And presence
45:20
Of God
45:21
Any time
45:22
Or very
45:23
Often when
45:23
There's a
45:23
Manifestation
45:24
Of God
45:25
There is
45:26
A
45:26
Company
45:26
Of clouds
45:28
You have
45:28
It at
45:29
Sinai
45:29
And the
45:30
Giving
45:30
Of the law
45:31
Remember
45:32
When Israel
45:33
Journeyed
45:33
Through the
45:33
Promised Land
45:35
And they
45:36
Were going
45:36
Through the
45:37
Desert
45:37
There was
45:38
The pillar
45:38
Of cloud
45:39
By day
45:40
And the
45:41
Pillar
45:41
Of fire
45:42
By night
45:43
A pillar
45:43
Of protection
45:44
And a
45:44
Pillar
45:44
To guide
45:45
Them
45:46
When the
45:47
Temple
45:47
When the
45:48
Temple was
45:48
Dedicated
45:48
And Solomon
45:49
Dedicated
45:50
Remember
45:51
You read
45:52
About it
45:52
There
45:52
The amazing
45:53
Dedication
45:54
Of the
45:54
Temple
45:55
It then
45:55
Tells us
45:56
That the
45:56
Temple
45:57
Filled
45:57
With clouds
45:58
With the
46:00
Weight
46:00
The presence
46:01
Of the
46:01
Glory of
46:02
God
46:02
The Mount
46:03
Of transfiguration
46:04
Remember
46:05
Again
46:06
They were
46:07
Enveloped
46:07
In the
46:08
Cloud
46:08
Which again
46:09
Speaks of
46:10
The
46:11
Manifestation
46:12
And the
46:12
Presence
46:12
And the
46:13
Glory of
46:13
God
46:14
And so
46:15
In the
46:16
End times
46:16
Jesus
46:17
Himself
46:18
Said
46:18
You will
46:19
See the
46:20
Son of
46:20
Man
46:20
Coming
46:21
In a
46:21
Cloud
46:21
With power
46:23
And great
46:24
Glory
46:24
So the
46:26
Clouds
46:26
Really are
46:27
His chariot
46:27
And as we
46:29
Say it's
46:29
Going to be
46:29
So different
46:30
To when
46:31
He came
46:31
Before
46:32
Because it's
46:33
Going to be
46:34
Sudden
46:34
It'll be
46:35
Just like
46:36
Lightning
46:36
That's
46:36
Again what
46:37
Jesus
46:37
Tells us
46:38
Very simply
46:39
That it's
46:40
Going to
46:40
Take people
46:41
By surprise
46:42
Jesus
46:42
Tells us
46:43
When they
46:44
Ask him
46:44
You know
46:44
When
46:45
What's
46:45
It's
46:45
Going to
46:46
Be like
46:46
Well he
46:46
Said it's
46:46
Going to
46:47
Be like
46:47
The days
46:47
Of
46:48
Noah
46:49
And the
46:49
Flood
46:49
And what
46:51
Happened
46:51
There
46:51
Well he
46:52
Said they
46:53
Were eating
46:53
And they
46:54
Were drinking
46:54
And they
46:55
Were
46:55
Marrying
46:56
And given
46:56
In marriage
46:57
And what
46:59
Did that
46:59
Mean
46:59
It meant
47:00
It
47:01
Couldn't
47:01
Be more
47:02
Normal
47:02
It's the
47:03
Everyday
47:04
Things
47:05
Things
47:05
That happen
47:06
All the
47:07
Time
47:07
There was
47:08
Nothing
47:08
Unusual
47:10
About the
47:10
Day
47:10
When the
47:11
Flood
47:11
Started
47:12
It was
47:13
A normal
47:14
Day
47:14
And Jesus
47:15
Is saying
47:16
It's going
47:16
To be
47:16
Just like
47:17
That
47:17
When I
47:18
Return
47:19
It will
47:19
Be a
47:20
Day of
47:20
Normality
47:21
People
47:21
Won't get
47:22
Up in
47:22
The morning
47:23
If it's
47:23
Up in
47:23
The morning
47:24

That's
47:30
What he
47:31
Keeps
47:31
Saying

And that's
47:31
Why he
47:32
Keeps
47:32
Saying
47:32
Jesus
47:33
Said it
47:33
Often

Angels

Know

Jesus
47:45
Said
47:46
That

The angels
47:47
Don't

A
48:38
Sense
48:38
The
48:39
Pushing
48:39
Of

Christ
48:40
Was
48:40
Symbolic

Putting

But

48:58
About
48:58
All
48:58
The

Almost
