00:03:14.900 --> 00:03:18.300
God<00:03:15.240><c> is</c><00:03:15.659><c> first</c><00:03:16.099><c> the</c><00:03:16.599><c> King</c><00:03:16.919><c> of</c><00:03:17.139><c> his</c><00:03:17.280><c> people.</c>

00:03:20.180 --> 00:03:24.400
We<00:03:20.460><c> think</c><00:03:20.620><c> of</c><00:03:20.740><c> the</c><00:03:20.840><c> Lord</c><00:03:21.039><c> Jesus</c><00:03:21.379><c> Christ</c><00:03:21.699><c> as</c><00:03:21.979><c> the</c><00:03:22.139><c> Good</c><00:03:22.360><c> Shepherd,</c><00:03:23.979><c> and</c><00:03:24.240><c> yet</c>

00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:25.719
Isaiah<00:03:24.800><c> makes</c><00:03:25.000><c> it</c><00:03:25.180><c> very</c><00:03:25.479><c> clear,</c>

00:03:33.580 --> 00:03:37.860
We<00:03:33.840><c> think</c><00:03:34.120><c> of</c><00:03:34.300><c> the</c><00:03:34.379><c> Lord</c><00:03:34.599><c> Jesus</c><00:03:34.939><c> Christ</c><00:03:35.319><c> as</c><00:03:36.180><c> the</c><00:03:36.699><c> Bridegroom.</c>

00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:41.340
The<00:03:38.560><c> Old</c><00:03:38.819><c> Testament</c><00:03:39.219><c> scriptures</c><00:03:39.599><c> make</c><00:03:39.879><c> it</c><00:03:40.060><c> very</c><00:03:40.400><c> clear</c><00:03:40.780><c> that</c>

00:03:41.340 --> 00:03:45.099
God<00:03:41.780><c> first</c><00:03:42.439><c> was</c><00:03:42.979><c> the</c><00:03:43.219><c> Bridegroom,</c><00:03:44.819><c> thy</c>

00:03:54.659 --> 00:03:59.259
Everything,<00:03:55.460><c> therefore,</c><00:03:55.919><c> is</c><00:03:56.340><c> of</c><00:03:56.580><c> God,</c><00:03:58.280><c> and</c><00:03:58.500><c> since</c><00:03:58.900><c> the</c><00:03:59.080><c> Lord</c>

00:03:59.259 --> 00:04:03.560
Jesus<00:03:59.680><c> Christ</c><00:03:59.979><c> came</c><00:04:00.479><c> to</c><00:04:01.379><c> do</c><00:04:02.000><c> God's</c><00:04:02.439><c> will,</c>

00:04:04.300 --> 00:04:10.259
God<00:04:04.659><c> conferred</c><00:04:05.060><c> upon</c><00:04:05.300><c> him</c><00:04:06.180><c> those</c><00:04:06.740><c> and</c><00:04:06.979><c> many</c><00:04:07.240><c> other</c><00:04:07.520><c> titles</c><00:04:07.879><c> which</c><00:04:08.360><c> really</c><00:04:08.919><c> and</c><00:04:09.139><c> rightly</c><00:04:09.560><c> belonged</c><00:04:10.060><c> to</c>

00:04:10.259 --> 00:04:11.240
himself.

00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:15.659
And<00:04:12.900><c> so</c><00:04:13.000><c> in</c><00:04:13.180><c> doing</c><00:04:13.360><c> the</c><00:04:13.560><c> will</c><00:04:13.659><c> of</c><00:04:13.879><c> God,</c><00:04:14.159><c> he</c><00:04:14.340><c> became</c><00:04:14.740><c> the</c><00:04:15.060><c> image</c>

of<00:04:17.180><c> the</c><00:04:17.439><c> invisible</c><00:04:17.860><c> God.</c>

00:04:18.379 --> 00:04:23.620
He<00:04:19.600><c> was</c><00:04:19.819><c> known</c><00:04:20.040><c> as</c><00:04:20.420><c> Immanuel,</c><00:04:21.120><c> meaning</c><00:04:21.480><c> God</c><00:04:21.800><c> with</c><00:04:22.019><c> us.</c>

00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:28.220
In<00:04:25.060><c> him</c><00:04:25.399><c> dwelt</c><00:04:25.680><c> all</c><00:04:26.120><c> the</c><00:04:26.300><c> fullness</c><00:04:26.600><c> of</c><00:04:26.800><c> the</c><00:04:26.980><c> Godhead,</c><00:04:27.399><c> bodily.</c>

00:04:32.850 --> 00:04:35.240
He<00:04:33.160><c> was</c><00:04:33.339><c> the</c><00:04:33.560><c> Word</c><00:04:33.819><c> made</c><00:04:34.160><c> flesh.</c>

00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:43.480
Now<00:04:39.459><c> the</c><00:04:39.660><c> importance</c><00:04:40.160><c> of</c><00:04:40.399><c> this</c><00:04:40.699><c> is</c><00:04:41.139><c> that,</c><00:04:42.480><c> first</c><00:04:42.879><c> of</c><00:04:43.060><c> all,</c><00:04:43.240><c> we</c>

00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:06.480
And<00:05:01.860><c> secondly,</c><00:05:03.339><c> there</c><00:05:03.480><c> is</c><00:05:03.620><c> a</c><00:05:03.720><c> lesson</c><00:05:03.879><c> here</c><00:05:04.220><c> as</c><00:05:04.439><c> to</c><00:05:04.500><c> how</c><00:05:04.779><c> we</c><00:05:05.120><c> ourselves</c><00:05:05.720><c> should</c><00:05:06.019><c> think</c><00:05:06.300><c> of</c>

the<00:05:06.620><c> Lord</c>

Jesus<00:05:07.199><c> Christ.</c>

00:05:09.420 --> 00:05:12.560
There<00:05:09.620><c> is</c><00:05:09.759><c> a</c><00:05:09.920><c> tendency</c><00:05:10.220><c> among</c><00:05:10.620><c> some</c><00:05:10.860><c> sects</c><00:05:11.079><c> today</c><00:05:11.360><c> to</c><00:05:11.899><c> pray</c><00:05:12.220><c> to</c>

00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:14.579
the<00:05:12.740><c> Lord</c><00:05:12.920><c> Jesus</c><00:05:13.439><c> Christ,</c><00:05:13.980><c> to</c><00:05:14.259><c> exalt</c>

him<00:05:14.959><c> over</c><00:05:15.560><c> and</c><00:05:15.860><c> above,</c><00:05:16.899><c> almost</c><00:05:17.199><c> in</c><00:05:17.360><c> their</c><00:05:17.600><c> thoughts,</c><00:05:17.920><c> God</c><00:05:18.160><c> himself.</c>

00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:22.500
This<00:05:20.680><c> Jesus</c><00:05:21.120><c> would</c><00:05:21.360><c> not</c><00:05:21.600><c> have.</c>

00:05:22.860 --> 00:05:26.579
He<00:05:23.040><c> came</c><00:05:23.439><c> to</c><00:05:23.720><c> do</c><00:05:23.860><c> the</c><00:05:24.079><c> will</c><00:05:24.259><c> of</c><00:05:24.519><c> God,</c><00:05:25.240><c> and</c><00:05:25.379><c> therefore</c><00:05:25.720><c> everything</c><00:05:26.160><c> must</c><00:05:26.360><c> be</c>

00:05:26.579 --> 00:05:28.540
seen<00:05:26.879><c> in</c><00:05:27.240><c> that</c><00:05:27.500><c> context.</c>

00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:35.240
The<00:05:32.100><c> next</c><00:05:32.399><c> clause</c><00:05:32.579><c> we</c><00:05:32.740><c> look</c><00:05:32.920><c> at</c><00:05:33.079><c> in</c><00:05:33.259><c> Hebrews</c><00:05:33.540><c> 10</c><00:05:33.899><c> is</c><00:05:34.420><c> sacrifice</c>

Now<00:05:41.279><c> this</c><00:05:41.600><c> is</c><00:05:42.019><c> not</c><00:05:42.399><c> a</c><00:05:42.699><c> contradiction</c><00:05:43.300><c> with</c><00:05:43.939><c> the</c><00:05:44.120><c> law</c><00:05:44.240><c> of</c><00:05:44.480><c> Moses,</c><00:05:46.439><c> nor</c>

that<00:05:49.040><c> the</c><00:05:49.199><c> law</c><00:05:49.459><c> was</c><00:05:49.860><c> inadequate.</c>

00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:54.980
The<00:05:53.639><c> law</c><00:05:53.759><c> was</c><00:05:54.019><c> holy.</c>

00:05:55.259 --> 00:05:57.279
It<00:05:55.459><c> was</c><00:05:55.660><c> true,</c><00:05:55.920><c> it</c><00:05:56.040><c> was</c><00:05:56.220><c> good.</c>

00:06:01.699 --> 00:06:05.019
Jesus<00:06:02.459><c> did</c><00:06:02.680><c> not</c><00:06:02.879><c> come</c><00:06:03.100><c> to</c><00:06:03.339><c> destroy</c><00:06:03.860><c> the</c><00:06:04.120><c> law</c><00:06:04.360><c> but</c><00:06:04.519><c> to</c><00:06:04.740><c> fulfil</c>

00:43:57.369 --> 00:44:00.090
That<00:43:57.469><c> God</c><00:43:57.690><c> does</c><00:43:57.969><c> not</c><00:43:58.190><c> give</c><00:43:58.429><c> to</c><00:43:58.630><c> us</c><00:43:58.829><c> in</c><00:43:58.989><c> one</c><00:43:59.230><c> chapter</c><00:43:59.630><c> a</c><00:43:59.789><c> whole</c>

00:44:13.309 --> 00:44:16.090
and<00:44:13.929><c> there</c><00:44:14.050><c> is</c><00:44:14.230><c> a</c><00:44:14.369><c> gentle</c><00:44:14.690><c> repetition</c><00:44:15.269><c> throughout</c><00:44:15.630><c> the</c><00:44:15.849><c> pages</c>

of<00:44:16.289><c> scripture.</c>

00:44:17.769 --> 00:44:21.949
And<00:44:17.849><c> each</c><00:44:18.030><c> time</c><00:44:18.269><c> they're</c><00:44:18.550><c> repeated</c><00:44:18.929><c> we</c><00:44:19.769><c> are</c><00:44:20.909><c> grounded</c><00:44:21.469><c> more</c>

00:44:24.090 --> 00:44:26.829
But<00:44:24.289><c> also</c><00:44:24.849><c> he</c><00:44:25.170><c> goes</c><00:44:25.449><c> a</c><00:44:25.630><c> little</c><00:44:25.789><c> bit</c><00:44:25.989><c> further.</c>

00:44:27.150 --> 00:44:30.610
So<00:44:27.230><c> that</c><00:44:27.369><c> each</c><00:44:27.590><c> time</c><00:44:27.789><c> we</c><00:44:28.010><c> have</c><00:44:28.230><c> the</c><00:44:28.769><c> foundations</c><00:44:29.429><c> laid</c><00:44:29.889><c> and</c><00:44:30.510><c> we</c>

00:44:38.769 --> 00:44:42.949
We<00:44:39.190><c> shall</c><00:44:39.309><c> pick</c><00:44:39.489><c> them</c><00:44:39.610><c> up</c><00:44:39.769><c> again</c><00:44:40.210><c> but</c><00:44:40.710><c> in</c><00:44:40.849><c> a</c><00:44:41.050><c> different</c><00:44:41.210><c> way</c><00:44:41.449><c> using</c><00:44:41.730><c> different</c><00:44:42.110><c> verses</c><00:44:42.369><c> of</c><00:44:42.610><c> scripture</c>
