But<00:07:10.579><c> it</c><00:07:10.720><c> was</c><00:07:10.920><c> without</c><00:07:11.240><c> the</c><00:07:11.540><c> ark</c><00:07:11.639><c> wasn't</c><00:07:11.939><c> it?</c>

00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:16.839
But<00:07:13.680><c> in</c><00:07:13.879><c> Jerusalem</c><00:07:14.420><c> there</c><00:07:14.680><c> was</c><00:07:15.199><c> the</c><00:07:15.720><c> tabernacle</c><00:07:16.220><c> of</c><00:07:16.480><c> David</c>

The<00:07:19.300><c> second</c><00:07:19.500><c> Samuel</c><00:07:19.819><c> chapter</c><00:07:20.360><c> 6</c><00:07:20.839><c> tells</c><00:07:21.139><c> us</c><00:07:21.379><c> that</c><00:07:21.500><c> when</c><00:07:21.699><c> the</c><00:07:22.000><c> ark</c><00:07:22.139><c> came</c><00:07:22.459><c> in</c>

David<00:07:23.180><c> constructed</c><00:07:23.860><c> a</c><00:07:24.120><c> tabernacle</c><00:07:24.459><c> and</c><00:07:24.579><c> became</c><00:07:24.819><c> known</c><00:07:25.060><c> as</c><00:07:25.500><c> the</c><00:07:25.819><c> tabernacle</c><00:07:26.259><c> of</c><00:07:26.519><c> David.</c>

00:07:27.699 --> 00:07:31.360
It<00:07:27.839><c> didn't</c><00:07:28.120><c> have</c><00:07:28.319><c> an</c><00:07:28.600><c> altar</c><00:07:28.899><c> of</c><00:07:29.279><c> offering</c><00:07:29.620><c> but</c><00:07:30.360><c> it</c><00:07:30.660><c> did</c><00:07:30.879><c> have</c>

00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:37.620
It's<00:07:34.480><c> a</c><00:07:34.699><c> really</c><00:07:34.920><c> interesting</c><00:07:35.519><c> stage</c><00:07:35.959><c> in</c><00:07:36.180><c> Israel's</c><00:07:36.680><c> history.</c>

Two<00:07:38.000><c> tabernacles.</c>

00:07:39.579 --> 00:07:43.420
Now<00:07:39.740><c> there's</c><00:07:39.920><c> going</c><00:07:40.019><c> to</c><00:07:40.139><c> be</c><00:07:40.480><c> two</c><00:07:40.860><c> altars</c><00:07:41.680><c> in</c><00:07:42.360><c> Israel.</c>

00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:45.220
And<00:07:44.000><c> that's</c><00:07:44.160><c> how</c><00:07:44.279><c> David</c><00:07:44.680><c> saw</c><00:07:45.000><c> it.</c>

00:07:45.420 --> 00:07:47.879
He<00:07:45.600><c> saw</c><00:07:45.819><c> the</c><00:07:46.060><c> whole</c><00:07:46.720><c> import</c><00:07:47.199><c> of</c><00:07:47.360><c> verse</c><00:07:47.600><c> 18.</c>

00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.100
What<00:07:48.079><c> God</c><00:07:48.279><c> was</c><00:07:48.519><c> saying</c><00:07:48.600><c> was</c><00:07:48.939><c> astonishing.</c>

00:07:50.220 --> 00:07:51.180
Absolutely<00:07:50.480><c> astonishing.</c>

00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:55.240
There<00:07:51.740><c> was</c><00:07:51.980><c> already</c><00:07:52.620><c> his</c><00:07:53.019><c> official</c><00:07:53.899><c> altar</c><00:07:54.459><c> in</c><00:07:54.959><c> Gibeon.</c>

And<00:07:55.480><c> now</c><00:07:55.740><c> God</c><00:07:55.920><c> was</c><00:07:56.259><c> saying</c><00:07:56.399><c> this</c><00:07:56.620><c> to</c><00:07:56.779><c> him.</c>

00:07:57.959 --> 00:07:59.139

00:21:05.640 --> 00:21:08.339

00:21:08.440 --> 00:21:12.660

00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:25.140
The<00:21:23.660><c> crisis</c><00:21:23.960><c> is</c><00:21:24.220><c> enormous.</c>

00:21:25.420 --> 00:21:29.420
The<00:21:25.559><c> whole</c><00:21:26.640><c> life</c><00:21:27.160><c> of</c><00:21:27.359><c> Jerusalem</c><00:21:27.759><c> of</c><00:21:27.980><c> your</c><00:21:28.200><c> family</c><00:21:28.559><c> of</c><00:21:28.759><c> yourself</c><00:21:29.099><c> all</c>

That's<00:21:37.019><c> the</c><00:21:37.079><c> man</c><00:21:37.259><c> that</c><00:21:37.400><c> was</c><00:21:37.500><c> in</c><00:21:37.619><c> the</c><00:21:37.839><c> bed</c><00:21:38.019><c> just</c><00:21:38.220><c> a</c><00:21:38.339><c> few</c><00:21:38.460><c> weeks</c><00:21:38.779><c> before.</c>

00:21:39.920 --> 00:21:40.920
Perhaps<00:21:39.920><c> days.</c>

00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:44.240
But<00:21:42.019><c> he</c><00:21:42.119><c> came</c><00:21:42.359><c> out</c><00:21:42.519><c> of</c><00:21:42.619><c> that</c><00:21:42.799><c> bedroom</c><00:21:43.200><c> where</c><00:21:43.720><c> people</c><00:21:44.019><c> thought</c>

00:21:46.599 --> 00:21:49.160
And<00:21:46.700><c> in</c><00:21:46.799><c> his</c><00:21:47.059><c> mind</c><00:21:47.259><c> was</c><00:21:47.660><c> scotched</c><00:21:48.180><c> the</c><00:21:48.400><c> principles</c><00:21:48.799><c> of</c><00:21:49.039><c> God.</c>

00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:52.279

00:21:54.220 --> 00:21:56.319

And<00:23:09.720><c> it's</c><00:23:09.819><c> going</c><00:23:09.960><c> to</c><00:23:10.019><c> mean</c><00:23:10.119><c> you</c><00:23:10.259><c> have</c><00:23:10.359><c> to</c><00:23:10.480><c> go</c><00:23:10.619><c> home</c><00:23:10.720><c> a</c><00:23:10.920><c> different</c><00:23:11.140><c> way.</c>

00:23:11.640 --> 00:23:14.279
Or<00:23:11.740><c> you</c><00:23:11.779><c> have</c><00:23:11.940><c> to</c><00:23:12.039><c> get</c><00:23:12.160><c> up</c><00:23:12.299><c> early</c><00:23:12.539><c> and</c><00:23:12.700><c> do</c><00:23:12.839><c> this</c><00:23:13.059><c> or</c><00:23:13.319><c> that.</c>

00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:18.640
Then<00:23:14.519><c> always</c><00:23:14.779><c> remember</c><00:23:15.559><c> that</c><00:23:16.200><c> if</c><00:23:16.380><c> there's</c><00:23:16.700><c> not</c><00:23:17.180><c> some</c><00:23:17.579><c> cost.</c>

00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:22.099
Then<00:23:19.299><c> it's</c><00:23:19.440><c> not</c><00:23:19.700><c> really</c><00:23:20.140><c> a</c><00:23:20.480><c> true</c><00:23:20.700><c> offering</c><00:23:21.039><c> to</c><00:23:21.259><c> God.</c>

00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:33.240
We<00:23:30.920><c> come</c><00:23:31.079><c> now</c><00:23:31.299><c> to</c><00:23:31.500><c> the</c><00:23:31.759><c> next</c><00:23:32.019><c> little</c><00:23:32.279><c> picture</c><00:23:32.579><c> which</c><00:23:32.799><c> is</c><00:23:33.039><c> given</c>

in<00:23:33.460><c> verse</c><00:23:34.119><c> 26.</c>

00:23:36.539 --> 00:23:37.480
And<00:23:36.660><c> it's</c><00:23:37.000><c> astonishing.</c>

00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:39.900
It's<00:23:37.880><c> a</c><00:23:37.960><c> really</c><00:23:38.240><c> astonishing</c><00:23:38.680><c> picture</c><00:23:39.019><c> again.</c>

00:23:41.019 --> 00:23:41.960
He's<00:23:41.259><c> paid</c><00:23:41.480><c> the</c><00:23:41.660><c> money.</c>

00:23:42.259 --> 00:23:45.440
He<00:23:42.440><c> seems</c><00:23:42.700><c> to</c><00:23:42.900><c> have</c><00:23:43.019><c> had</c><00:23:43.440><c> the</c><00:23:43.900><c> forethought</c><00:23:44.420><c> to</c><00:23:44.680><c> bring</c><00:23:44.819><c> it</c><00:23:45.160><c> out</c>

00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:46.700
with<00:23:45.660><c> him.</c>

00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:50.559
He<00:23:47.759><c> knew</c><00:23:47.960><c> he</c><00:23:48.119><c> was</c><00:23:48.339><c> going</c><00:23:48.480><c> to</c><00:23:48.880><c> have</c><00:23:49.059><c> to</c><00:23:49.259><c> buy</c><00:23:49.400><c> that</c><00:23:49.720><c> field.</c>

00:23:51.059 --> 00:23:53.160
And<00:23:51.279><c> so</c><00:23:51.420><c> he's</c><00:23:51.700><c> taken</c><00:23:51.940><c> the</c><00:23:52.140><c> money</c><00:23:52.359><c> with</c><00:23:52.599><c> him.</c>

00:23:53.339 --> 00:23:55.700
He<00:23:53.539><c> pays</c><00:23:53.799><c> it</c><00:23:54.160><c> on</c><00:23:54.460><c> the</c><00:23:54.859><c> spot.</c>

00:23:56.079 --> 00:24:00.180
And<00:23:56.599><c> it</c><00:23:56.779><c> says</c><00:23:57.039><c> in</c><00:23:57.200><c> verse</c><00:23:57.420><c> 26</c><00:23:58.039><c> that</c><00:23:58.299><c> David</c><00:23:58.920><c> built</c><00:23:59.359><c> there</c><00:23:59.779><c> an</c>

00:24:04.200 --> 00:24:08.019
And<00:24:04.400><c> offered</c><00:24:04.920><c> burnt</c><00:24:05.539><c> offerings</c><00:24:06.119><c> and</c><00:24:06.599><c> peace</c><00:24:06.920><c> offerings.</c>

00:24:08.460 --> 00:24:11.140
And<00:24:08.660><c> called</c><00:24:09.119><c> upon</c><00:24:09.759><c> the</c><00:24:10.200><c> Lord.</c>

00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:14.839
And<00:24:12.059><c> he</c><00:24:12.220><c> answered</c><00:24:12.500><c> him</c><00:24:12.680><c> from</c><00:24:12.920><c> heaven</c><00:24:13.180><c> by</c><00:24:13.599><c> fire</c><00:24:13.859><c> upon</c><00:24:14.099><c> the</c><00:24:14.380><c> altar</c><00:24:14.619><c> of</c>

00:24:14.839 --> 00:24:15.920
burnt<00:24:15.019><c> offerings.</c>

00:24:16.420 --> 00:24:18.619
You<00:24:16.500><c> know</c><00:24:16.660><c> sometimes</c><00:24:16.900><c> we</c><00:24:17.099><c> read</c><00:24:17.299><c> a</c><00:24:17.519><c> verse</c><00:24:17.779><c> and</c><00:24:18.019><c> we</c><00:24:18.160><c> just</c><00:24:18.420><c> take</c>

it<00:24:18.740><c> for</c><00:24:18.980><c> granted.</c>

00:24:19.740 --> 00:24:22.420
But<00:24:19.880><c> that</c><00:24:20.180><c> really</c><00:24:20.420><c> is</c><00:24:20.599><c> a</c><00:24:20.720><c> most</c><00:24:20.920><c> amazing</c><00:24:21.480><c> verse.</c>

00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:24.039
Here<00:24:22.660><c> is</c><00:24:22.859><c> the</c><00:24:23.059><c> king</c><00:24:23.180><c> in</c><00:24:23.339><c> this</c><00:24:23.700><c> crisis.</c>

00:24:24.039 --> 00:24:27.259
And<00:24:24.220><c> it</c><00:24:24.259><c> says</c><00:24:24.599><c> David</c><00:24:25.220><c> built</c><00:24:25.619><c> there</c><00:24:26.019><c> an</c><00:24:26.400><c> altar.</c>

00:24:28.660 --> 00:24:31.000
What<00:24:29.119><c> did</c><00:24:29.279><c> he</c><00:24:29.440><c> build</c><00:24:29.559><c> the</c><00:24:29.740><c> altar</c><00:24:29.960><c> out</c><00:24:30.180><c> of?</c>

00:24:31.400 --> 00:24:34.420
Here<00:24:31.559><c> he</c><00:24:31.759><c> was</c><00:24:32.160><c> in</c><00:24:32.640><c> all</c><00:24:32.859><c> of</c><00:24:33.000><c> his</c><00:24:33.160><c> weakness</c><00:24:33.559><c> hobbling</c><00:24:34.079><c> around</c>

00:24:34.420 --> 00:24:36.339
with<00:24:34.900><c> large</c><00:24:35.259><c> stones.</c>

00:24:37.539 --> 00:24:40.539
This<00:24:37.720><c> wasn't</c><00:24:38.000><c> an</c><00:24:38.200><c> altar</c><00:24:38.319><c> that</c><00:24:38.519><c> he</c><00:24:38.680><c> constructed</c><00:24:39.180><c> brass.</c>

00:24:41.019 --> 00:24:42.819
And<00:24:41.180><c> have</c><00:24:41.299><c> it</c><00:24:41.740><c> made</c><00:24:42.019><c> in</c><00:24:42.259><c> the</c><00:24:42.359><c> finest</c><00:24:42.579><c> way.</c>

00:24:43.019 --> 00:24:45.480
This<00:24:43.240><c> was</c><00:24:43.519><c> an</c><00:24:43.799><c> immediate</c><00:24:44.440><c> altar.</c>

00:24:46.079 --> 00:24:49.400
He<00:24:46.259><c> would</c><00:24:46.440><c> have</c><00:24:46.599><c> to</c><00:24:46.740><c> therefore</c><00:24:47.059><c> find</c><00:24:47.440><c> stones</c><00:24:47.920><c> around</c><00:24:48.299><c> that</c><00:24:48.599><c> place.</c>

00:24:49.660 --> 00:24:51.839
So<00:24:49.819><c> here</c><00:24:49.960><c> is</c><00:24:50.079><c> the</c><00:24:50.200><c> king</c><00:24:50.359><c> of</c><00:24:50.539><c> Israel</c><00:24:50.740><c> in</c><00:24:50.859><c> this</c><00:24:51.079><c> great</c><00:24:51.339><c> crisis.</c>

00:24:51.839 --> 00:24:54.740
And<00:24:52.140><c> perhaps</c><00:24:52.500><c> the</c><00:24:52.759><c> elders</c><00:24:52.960><c> of</c><00:24:53.119><c> Israel</c><00:24:53.380><c> with</c><00:24:53.559><c> him</c><00:24:53.740><c> helping.</c>

00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:57.480
And<00:24:55.079><c> the</c><00:24:55.240><c> king</c><00:24:55.460><c> is</c><00:24:55.880><c> building</c><00:24:56.259><c> the</c><00:24:56.619><c> altar.</c>

00:24:57.640 --> 00:25:01.039
David,<00:24:58.940><c> the</c><00:24:59.039><c> man</c><00:24:59.220><c> that</c><00:24:59.339><c> came</c><00:24:59.559><c> out</c><00:24:59.740><c> of</c><00:24:59.839><c> the</c><00:25:00.059><c> bed.</c>

00:25:06.500 --> 00:25:08.819
And<00:25:06.819><c> he</c><00:25:07.200><c> offered</c><00:25:07.420><c> burnt</c><00:25:07.740><c> offerings.</c>

00:25:09.039 --> 00:25:11.359
He<00:25:09.359><c> prepared</c><00:25:09.599><c> them</c><00:25:09.759><c> and</c><00:25:10.019><c> laid</c><00:25:10.259><c> them</c><00:25:10.500><c> upon</c><00:25:10.819><c> the</c><00:25:11.059><c> altar.</c>

00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:13.700
And<00:25:12.319><c> peace</c><00:25:12.680><c> offerings.</c>

00:25:15.299 --> 00:25:17.019
What<00:25:15.460><c> an</c><00:25:15.660><c> amazing</c><00:25:16.019><c> thing.</c>

00:25:17.140 --> 00:25:18.599
Wasn't<00:25:17.400><c> he</c><00:25:17.599><c> the</c><00:25:17.740><c> king?</c>

00:25:19.059 --> 00:25:21.339
But<00:25:19.779><c> he's</c><00:25:19.920><c> more</c><00:25:20.140><c> than</c><00:25:20.319><c> the</c><00:25:20.440><c> king</c><00:25:20.559><c> isn't</c><00:25:20.799><c> he?</c>

00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:23.720
He's<00:25:22.039><c> also</c><00:25:22.400><c> the</c><00:25:22.720><c> priest.</c>

00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:29.779
We<00:25:25.180><c> said</c><00:25:25.319><c> before</c><00:25:25.779><c> that</c><00:25:26.339><c> perhaps</c><00:25:26.680><c> Oranah</c><00:25:27.059><c> was</c><00:25:27.240><c> in</c><00:25:27.559><c> the</c><00:25:28.119><c> line</c><00:25:28.619><c> of</c><00:25:28.920><c> Melchizedek.</c>

00:25:29.859 --> 00:25:33.259

00:25:34.880 --> 00:25:38.259
In<00:25:35.140><c> this</c><00:25:35.400><c> environment</c><00:25:35.900><c> there</c><00:25:36.140><c> certainly</c><00:25:36.480><c> is</c><00:25:36.799><c> a</c><00:25:36.980><c> king</c><00:25:37.220><c> priest.</c>

00:25:38.420 --> 00:25:42.240

00:25:43.200 --> 00:25:45.859
And<00:25:43.880><c> he</c><00:25:44.559><c> in</c><00:25:44.960><c> the</c><00:25:45.140><c> heat</c><00:25:45.279><c> of</c><00:25:45.559><c> summer.</c>

00:25:46.140 --> 00:25:48.079
Carries<00:25:46.480><c> the</c><00:25:47.119><c> large</c><00:25:47.599><c> stones.</c>

00:25:53.500 --> 00:25:54.940

That<00:29:05.599><c> he</c><00:29:05.819><c> could</c><00:29:06.019><c> make</c><00:29:06.319><c> for</c><00:29:06.579><c> his</c><00:29:06.920><c> sin.</c>

00:29:10.259 --> 00:29:12.279
So<00:29:10.440><c> here</c><00:29:10.680><c> we</c><00:29:10.920><c> have</c><00:29:11.140><c> now</c><00:29:11.400><c> my</c><00:29:11.599><c> dear</c><00:29:11.759><c> brothers</c><00:29:11.940><c> and</c><00:29:12.279><c> sisters.</c>

00:29:12.500 --> 00:29:16.140
Another<00:29:12.900><c> altar</c><00:29:13.339><c> that</c><00:29:13.559><c> is</c><00:29:13.799><c> outside</c><00:29:14.380><c> the</c><00:29:14.640><c> mosaic</c><00:29:15.180><c> system.</c>

00:29:17.319 --> 00:29:19.759
And<00:29:17.579><c> David</c><00:29:17.859><c> was</c><00:29:18.140><c> outside</c><00:29:18.720><c> the</c><00:29:18.940><c> mosaic</c><00:29:19.420><c> system.</c>

00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:23.180
It<00:29:19.920><c> was</c><00:29:20.180><c> not</c><00:29:20.480><c> right</c><00:29:20.720><c> according</c><00:29:21.119><c> to</c><00:29:21.680><c> the</c><00:29:21.880><c> rules</c><00:29:22.240><c> of</c><00:29:22.480><c> Moses</c><00:29:22.839><c> law.</c>

00:29:23.180 --> 00:29:25.079
That<00:29:23.599><c> the</c><00:29:23.900><c> king</c><00:29:24.240><c> should</c><00:29:24.460><c> be.</c>

00:29:25.160 --> 00:29:28.299
A<00:29:25.339><c> king</c><00:29:25.579><c> of</c><00:29:25.819><c> Judah</c><00:29:26.079><c> should</c><00:29:26.480><c> be</c><00:29:26.740><c> making</c><00:29:27.039><c> the</c><00:29:27.339><c> offering.</c>

00:29:28.680 --> 00:29:31.019
So<00:29:28.859><c> it</c><00:29:29.039><c> is</c><00:29:29.279><c> a</c><00:29:29.440><c> new</c><00:29:29.740><c> system</c><00:29:30.140><c> isn't</c><00:29:30.380><c> it.</c>

00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:38.519
Up<00:29:34.839><c> there</c><00:29:35.039><c> in</c><00:29:35.220><c> Gideon</c><00:29:35.539><c> just</c><00:29:35.960><c> five</c><00:29:36.299><c> miles</c><00:29:36.559><c> away</c><00:29:36.779><c> not</c><00:29:36.980><c> a</c><00:29:37.079><c> long</c><00:29:37.220><c> way.</c>

00:29:38.599 --> 00:29:41.200

00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:45.180
The<00:29:41.900><c> altar</c><00:29:42.299><c> that</c><00:29:42.759><c> was</c><00:29:43.539><c> given</c><00:29:43.940><c> by</c><00:29:44.220><c> Moses.</c>

00:29:45.339 --> 00:29:47.480
So<00:29:45.559><c> we</c><00:29:45.779><c> have</c><00:29:45.960><c> two</c><00:29:46.279><c> fires</c><00:29:46.619><c> and</c><00:29:46.859><c> two</c><00:29:47.099><c> altars.</c>

00:29:47.500 --> 00:29:50.019

00:29:50.019 --> 00:29:55.119

00:29:55.299 --> 00:29:57.599
David<00:29:55.380><c> could</c><00:29:55.640><c> not</c><00:29:55.839><c> go</c><00:29:56.039><c> before</c><00:29:56.420><c> it</c><00:29:56.619><c> to</c><00:29:56.839><c> inquire</c><00:29:57.200><c> of</c><00:29:57.339><c> God.</c>

00:29:57.920 --> 00:30:00.339
For<00:29:57.920><c> he</c><00:29:58.079><c> was</c><00:29:58.299><c> afraid</c><00:29:58.740><c> because</c><00:29:59.079><c> of</c><00:29:59.240><c> the</c><00:29:59.500><c> sword</c><00:29:59.680><c> of</c><00:29:59.900><c> the</c><00:30:00.079><c> angel</c>

of<00:30:00.519><c> the</c><00:30:00.640><c> Lord.</c>

00:30:01.500 --> 00:30:04.140
He<00:30:01.619><c> said</c><00:30:01.759><c> if</c><00:30:01.940><c> God</c><00:30:02.220><c> has</c><00:30:02.500><c> in</c><00:30:02.660><c> fact</c><00:30:02.980><c> lit</c><00:30:03.460><c> this</c><00:30:03.819><c> altar.</c>

00:30:04.519 --> 00:30:08.420
Then<00:30:04.819><c> I</c><00:30:05.099><c> will</c><00:30:05.299><c> no</c><00:30:05.539><c> longer</c><00:30:06.019><c> be</c><00:30:06.500><c> going</c><00:30:06.740><c> to</c><00:30:07.000><c> Gideon.</c>

00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:11.039
He<00:30:08.920><c> has</c><00:30:09.220><c> made</c><00:30:09.480><c> a</c><00:30:09.940><c> switch</c><00:30:10.140><c> of</c><00:30:10.380><c> altars.</c>

00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:13.539
And<00:30:11.480><c> so</c><00:30:11.660><c> he</c><00:30:11.819><c> could</c><00:30:12.039><c> see</c><00:30:12.180><c> the</c><00:30:12.420><c> point</c><00:30:12.599><c> of</c><00:30:12.779><c> that.</c>

00:30:17.460 --> 00:30:21.019
This<00:30:18.339><c> is</c><00:30:18.779><c> the</c><00:30:18.960><c> house</c><00:30:19.660><c> of</c><00:30:20.079><c> the</c><00:30:20.259><c> Lord</c><00:30:20.480><c> God.</c>

00:30:21.500 --> 00:30:25.599

00:30:28.839 --> 00:30:31.660
Now<00:30:29.420><c> in</c><00:30:30.000><c> the</c><00:30:30.180><c> 2nd</c><00:30:30.400><c> Chronicles</c><00:30:30.799><c> chapter</c><00:30:31.099><c> 3.</c>

00:30:36.460 --> 00:30:38.259
But<00:30:36.559><c> because</c><00:30:36.900><c> there</c><00:30:37.059><c> is</c><00:30:37.140><c> a</c><00:30:37.220><c> nice</c><00:30:37.400><c> little</c><00:30:37.640><c> echo</c><00:30:37.960><c> to</c><00:30:38.160><c> it.</c>

00:30:54.539 --> 00:30:56.400
I'm<00:30:54.960><c> sure</c><00:30:55.240><c> of</c><00:30:55.440><c> that.</c>

00:30:57.059 --> 00:31:00.259

00:34:18.059 --> 00:34:19.679

00:34:19.940 --> 00:34:20.460
Melchizedek.

00:34:20.460 --> 00:34:22.639
That<00:34:21.119><c> had</c><00:34:21.400><c> offered</c><00:34:22.320><c> up.</c>

00:34:29.019 --> 00:34:30.059
As<00:34:29.139><c> Abraham.</c>

00:34:30.320 --> 00:34:32.139
And<00:34:30.480><c> now</c><00:34:30.639><c> he</c><00:34:30.760><c> was</c><00:34:30.900><c> the</c><00:34:31.159><c> patriarch.</c>

00:34:36.079 --> 00:34:37.500
In<00:34:36.300><c> Oranah.</c>

00:34:37.639 --> 00:34:39.880
Who<00:34:37.800><c> was</c><00:34:38.000><c> in</c><00:34:38.159><c> the</c><00:34:38.320><c> line</c><00:34:38.500><c> of</c><00:34:38.699><c> Melchizedek.</c>

What<00:34:40.719><c> an</c><00:34:40.960><c> amazing</c><00:34:41.360><c> thing.</c>

00:34:42.000 --> 00:34:44.119
A<00:34:42.300><c> distant</c><00:34:42.840><c> relative</c><00:34:43.280><c> of</c><00:34:43.440><c> Melchizedek.</c>

00:34:44.199 --> 00:34:45.860
And<00:34:44.280><c> now</c><00:34:44.500><c> David</c><00:34:44.739><c> has</c><00:34:45.019><c> acted</c><00:34:45.260><c> that</c><00:34:45.659><c> part.</c>

00:34:46.239 --> 00:34:47.900
And<00:34:46.340><c> so</c><00:34:46.440><c> all</c><00:34:46.619><c> of</c><00:34:46.760><c> Genesis</c><00:34:47.039><c> chapter</c><00:34:47.400><c> 22.</c>

00:34:47.900 --> 00:34:51.239
All<00:34:48.840><c> of</c><00:34:49.039><c> the</c><00:34:49.139><c> things</c><00:34:49.380><c> that</c><00:34:49.679><c> happened</c><00:34:49.940><c> there.</c>

00:34:51.260 --> 00:34:52.280
Because<00:34:51.420><c> remember</c><00:34:51.699><c> Melchizedek.</c>

00:34:52.320 --> 00:34:54.159
Couldn't<00:34:52.480><c> have</c><00:34:52.639><c> been</c><00:34:52.739><c> very</c><00:34:53.119><c> far</c><00:34:53.300><c> away.</c>

00:34:54.360 --> 00:34:56.400
When<00:34:54.840><c> Abraham</c><00:34:55.320><c> offered</c><00:34:55.639><c> up</c><00:34:55.920><c> Isaac.</c>

00:34:56.900 --> 00:34:58.280
He<00:34:57.019><c> must</c><00:34:57.300><c> have</c><00:34:57.480><c> been.</c>

00:34:58.400 --> 00:34:59.380
Very.

00:34:59.880 --> 00:35:01.739
Very<00:35:00.360><c> close</c><00:35:00.559><c> to</c><00:35:00.739><c> the</c><00:35:00.940><c> scene</c><00:35:01.059><c> at</c><00:35:01.260><c> that</c><00:35:01.500><c> time.</c>

00:35:01.780 --> 00:35:04.219
All<00:35:02.099><c> of</c><00:35:02.179><c> that</c><00:35:02.340><c> must</c><00:35:02.579><c> surely</c><00:35:02.860><c> have</c><00:35:03.019><c> come</c><00:35:03.139><c> into</c><00:35:03.360><c> David's</c><00:35:03.900><c> mind.</c>

00:35:04.599 --> 00:35:06.679
As<00:35:04.800><c> he</c><00:35:04.940><c> could</c><00:35:05.139><c> see</c><00:35:05.320><c> that</c><00:35:05.500><c> God</c><00:35:05.699><c> was</c><00:35:05.940><c> foreshadowing.</c>

00:35:07.119 --> 00:35:08.199
The<00:35:07.360><c> offering</c><00:35:07.679><c> of</c><00:35:07.920><c> something.</c>

00:35:08.219 --> 00:35:09.880
Very<00:35:08.659><c> much</c><00:35:08.940><c> greater.</c>

00:35:12.039 --> 00:35:13.480
And<00:35:12.340><c> when</c><00:35:12.460><c> we</c><00:35:12.500><c> look</c><00:35:12.639><c> at</c><00:35:12.719><c> the</c><00:35:12.840><c> picture</c><00:35:13.079><c> again.</c>

00:35:13.559 --> 00:35:15.760
And<00:35:13.699><c> we</c><00:35:13.860><c> see</c><00:35:14.079><c> David</c><00:35:14.460><c> there</c><00:35:14.800><c> making</c><00:35:15.119><c> that</c><00:35:15.460><c> offering.</c>

00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:18.119
Accepting<00:35:16.739><c> that</c><00:35:17.119><c> sin.</c>

00:35:19.239 --> 00:35:20.179
We<00:35:19.260><c> see</c><00:35:19.519><c> that</c><00:35:19.739><c> in</c><00:35:19.960><c> fact.</c>

00:35:20.380 --> 00:35:21.840
It<00:35:20.599><c> wasn't</c><00:35:21.159><c> his</c><00:35:21.599><c> sin.</c>

00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:24.280
With<00:35:22.079><c> which</c><00:35:22.280><c> God</c><00:35:22.599><c> was</c><00:35:22.940><c> angry,</c><00:35:23.280><c> was</c><00:35:23.519><c> it?</c>

00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:26.340
What<00:35:25.420><c> he</c><00:35:25.559><c> was</c><00:35:25.699><c> going</c><00:35:25.940><c> through.</c>

00:35:26.500 --> 00:35:29.039
Was<00:35:26.599><c> really</c><00:35:26.940><c> on</c><00:35:27.239><c> behalf</c><00:35:27.659><c> of</c><00:35:27.840><c> the</c><00:35:28.039><c> people.</c>

00:35:29.860 --> 00:35:32.260
He<00:35:30.099><c> was</c><00:35:30.340><c> a</c><00:35:30.639><c> sin</c><00:35:30.900><c> bearer.</c>

00:35:33.400 --> 00:35:34.840
So<00:35:33.519><c> the</c><00:35:33.739><c> whole</c><00:35:34.159><c> picture</c><00:35:34.579><c> of</c><00:35:34.699><c> it.</c>

00:35:34.840 --> 00:35:35.280
My<00:35:34.960><c> dear</c><00:35:35.119><c> friends.</c>

00:35:35.440 --> 00:35:37.480
Is<00:35:35.679><c> exceedingly</c><00:35:36.480><c> remarkable.</c>

00:35:37.579 --> 00:35:40.119
The<00:35:37.739><c> ironic</c><00:35:38.260><c> priesthood</c><00:35:38.940><c> is</c><00:35:39.239><c> up</c><00:35:39.420><c> there</c><00:35:39.579><c> in</c><00:35:39.760><c> Gibeon.</c>

00:35:40.380 --> 00:35:41.699
And<00:35:40.659><c> here</c><00:35:40.860><c> now</c><00:35:41.019><c> in</c><00:35:41.239><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:35:42.019 --> 00:35:44.760
There's<00:35:42.360><c> all</c><00:35:42.639><c> the</c><00:35:42.860><c> portrayal</c><00:35:43.340><c> of</c><00:35:43.480><c> a</c><00:35:43.719><c> greater</c><00:35:44.000><c> sacrifice.</c>

00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:46.980
By<00:35:45.380><c> a</c><00:35:45.639><c> king</c><00:35:45.880><c> priest.</c>

00:35:47.079 --> 00:35:48.800
Who<00:35:47.199><c> has</c><00:35:47.380><c> been</c><00:35:47.659><c> brought</c><00:35:47.920><c> into</c><00:35:48.300><c> the</c><00:35:48.539><c> problem.</c>

00:35:48.820 --> 00:35:50.860
He<00:35:48.980><c> was</c><00:35:49.500><c> made</c><00:35:50.019><c> sin</c><00:35:50.340><c> for</c><00:35:50.579><c> us.</c>

00:35:50.880 --> 00:35:51.960
Who<00:35:51.219><c> knew</c><00:35:51.460><c> no</c><00:35:51.719><c> sin.</c>

00:35:52.380 --> 00:35:54.019
And<00:35:52.659><c> he's</c><00:35:52.880><c> come</c><00:35:53.079><c> and</c><00:35:53.380><c> borne</c><00:35:53.619><c> that.</c>

00:35:54.480 --> 00:35:56.300
And<00:35:54.679><c> he's</c><00:35:54.920><c> taking</c><00:35:55.199><c> it</c><00:35:55.460><c> away.</c>

00:35:56.840 --> 00:35:58.300
And<00:35:57.019><c> I'm</c><00:35:57.219><c> sure.</c>

00:35:58.619 --> 00:35:59.559
I'm<00:35:58.860><c> really</c><00:35:59.139><c> sure.</c>

00:35:59.800 --> 00:36:02.599
That<00:35:59.900><c> if</c><00:36:00.119><c> Abraham</c><00:36:01.059><c> saw.</c>

00:36:03.059 --> 00:36:05.039
My<00:36:03.440><c> day,</c><00:36:03.940><c> said</c><00:36:04.039><c> Jesus.</c>

00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:07.500
That<00:36:05.760><c> I'm</c><00:36:06.000><c> sure</c><00:36:06.199><c> that</c><00:36:06.460><c> David</c><00:36:06.739><c> too.</c>

00:36:07.659 --> 00:36:08.440
On<00:36:07.860><c> this</c><00:36:08.019><c> occasion.</c>

00:36:08.539 --> 00:36:10.699
Would<00:36:08.599><c> have</c><00:36:08.699><c> gone</c><00:36:08.880><c> home</c><00:36:09.119><c> from</c><00:36:09.280><c> these</c><00:36:09.559><c> circumstances.</c>

00:36:10.920 --> 00:36:12.280
And<00:36:11.320><c> seen</c><00:36:11.579><c> also.</c>

00:36:12.280 --> 00:36:14.840
Christ's<00:36:13.300><c> day</c><00:36:13.460><c> to</c><00:36:13.699><c> come.</c>

00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:17.840
Well<00:36:16.219><c> this</c><00:36:16.860><c> incident.</c>

00:36:18.019 --> 00:36:19.139
Then<00:36:18.019><c> was</c><00:36:18.280><c> rightly.</c>

00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:21.260
It<00:36:19.699><c> was</c><00:36:19.960><c> new</c><00:36:20.179><c> life</c><00:36:20.460><c> for</c><00:36:20.659><c> old</c><00:36:20.920><c> bones.</c>

00:36:21.460 --> 00:36:22.940
As<00:36:21.460><c> we</c><00:36:21.659><c> might</c><00:36:21.820><c> put</c><00:36:22.019><c> it.</c>

00:36:23.219 --> 00:36:25.820
In<00:36:23.340><c> the</c><00:36:23.480><c> 1st</c><00:36:23.659><c> Chronicles</c><00:36:24.059><c> chapter</c><00:36:24.420><c> 22.</c>

00:36:27.119 --> 00:36:29.679
Seizing<00:36:27.800><c> the</c><00:36:28.199><c> whole</c><00:36:28.460><c> momentous</c><00:36:29.199><c> event.</c>

00:36:29.679 --> 00:36:31.840
Says<00:36:30.159><c> this.</c>

00:36:32.119 --> 00:36:35.119
Is<00:36:32.320><c> the</c><00:36:32.559><c> house</c><00:36:33.000><c> of</c><00:36:33.360><c> Yahweh</c><00:36:33.940><c> Elohim.</c>

00:36:35.260 --> 00:36:36.619
And<00:36:35.679><c> this</c><00:36:35.920><c> is</c><00:36:36.119><c> the</c><00:36:36.360><c> altar.</c>

00:36:36.639 --> 00:36:38.380
Of<00:36:36.840><c> the</c><00:36:37.039><c> burnt</c><00:36:37.300><c> offering</c><00:36:37.659><c> for</c><00:36:37.920><c> Israel.</c>

00:36:38.860 --> 00:36:40.440
And<00:36:39.099><c> there's</c><00:36:39.320><c> this</c><00:36:39.619><c> lowly</c><00:36:40.099><c> altar.</c>

00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:42.820
Just<00:36:41.079><c> put</c><00:36:41.559><c> together</c><00:36:41.920><c> as</c><00:36:42.179><c> best</c><00:36:42.480><c> he</c><00:36:42.619><c> might.</c>

00:36:43.019 --> 00:36:44.460
With<00:36:43.019><c> his</c><00:36:43.340><c> weary</c><00:36:43.940><c> arms.</c>

00:36:44.639 --> 00:36:46.000
And<00:36:44.739><c> his</c><00:36:44.960><c> limited</c><00:36:45.360><c> ability.</c>

00:45:56.980 --> 00:45:59.519
So<00:45:57.139><c> that</c><00:45:57.300><c> they</c><00:45:57.500><c> know</c><00:45:57.760><c> that</c><00:45:57.960><c> that's</c><00:45:58.059><c> what</c><00:45:58.219><c> life</c><00:45:58.460><c> is</c><00:45:58.699><c> about.</c>

00:45:59.699 --> 00:46:01.059

00:46:04.659 --> 00:46:06.300
If<00:46:04.820><c> you</c><00:46:05.000><c> just</c><00:46:05.300><c> indulge</c><00:46:05.739><c> our</c><00:46:05.960><c> children.</c>

00:46:15.480 --> 00:46:16.519
Very,<00:46:15.900><c> very</c><00:46:16.139><c> difficult.</c>

00:46:16.840 --> 00:46:18.219

00:46:18.380 --> 00:46:19.320
Tremendously.

00:46:19.579 --> 00:46:22.559
I<00:46:19.599><c> think</c><00:46:19.800><c> sometimes</c><00:46:20.239><c> we</c><00:46:20.380><c> put</c><00:46:20.579><c> upon</c><00:46:20.860><c> them</c><00:46:21.320><c> circumstances.</c>

00:46:24.460 --> 00:46:26.179
We<00:46:24.519><c> wouldn't</c><00:46:24.739><c> make</c><00:46:24.980><c> the</c><00:46:25.199><c> truth.</c>

00:46:27.019 --> 00:46:28.679
And<00:46:27.119><c> yet</c><00:46:27.219><c> because</c><00:46:27.440><c> that's</c><00:46:27.639><c> what</c><00:46:27.820><c> the</c><00:46:28.099><c> world's</c><00:46:28.519><c> doing.</c>

00:46:28.820 --> 00:46:30.239
We<00:46:28.900><c> kind</c><00:46:29.099><c> of</c><00:46:29.360><c> walk</c><00:46:29.559><c> in</c><00:46:29.739><c> with</c><00:46:29.920><c> it.</c>

00:46:30.519 --> 00:46:32.119
We've<00:46:30.679><c> got</c><00:46:30.679><c> to</c><00:46:30.880><c> see</c><00:46:31.019><c> it</c><00:46:31.320><c> clearly.</c>

00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:34.500
That<00:46:32.579><c> child's</c><00:46:32.900><c> going</c><00:46:33.039><c> to</c><00:46:33.179><c> reach</c><00:46:33.340><c> the</c><00:46:33.579><c> kingdom</c><00:46:33.760><c> that's</c><00:46:34.139><c> got</c><00:46:34.300><c> to</c>

00:46:36.960 --> 00:46:39.739
He's<00:46:37.199><c> got</c><00:46:37.340><c> to</c><00:46:37.639><c> see</c><00:46:37.820><c> that</c><00:46:37.980><c> that's</c><00:46:38.179><c> what</c><00:46:38.360><c> life</c><00:46:38.619><c> is</c><00:46:38.739><c> all</c><00:46:38.940><c> about.</c>

00:46:39.960 --> 00:46:42.900
It's<00:46:40.340><c> inspiring</c><00:46:40.719><c> here</c><00:46:40.980><c> to</c><00:46:41.159><c> see</c><00:46:41.480><c> this</c><00:46:42.119><c> old</c><00:46:42.559><c> man.</c>

Standing<00:46:43.260><c> before</c><00:46:43.519><c> his</c><00:46:43.780><c> son.</c>

00:46:44.099 --> 00:46:45.179
Before<00:46:44.380><c> all</c><00:46:44.619><c> of</c><00:46:44.820><c> Israel.</c>

00:46:45.179 --> 00:46:46.900
And<00:46:45.739><c> laying</c><00:46:46.099><c> upon</c><00:46:46.360><c> his</c><00:46:46.659><c> shoulders.</c>

00:46:47.239 --> 00:46:49.000
Tremendous<00:46:47.760><c> responsibility.</c>

00:46:49.280 --> 00:46:51.280
He's<00:46:49.400><c> only</c><00:46:49.619><c> an</c><00:46:49.780><c> 18</c><00:46:49.980><c> year</c><00:46:50.219><c> old</c><00:46:50.360><c> boy.</c>

00:46:51.559 --> 00:46:54.019
So<00:46:51.659><c> expect</c><00:46:52.199><c> something</c><00:46:52.579><c> of</c><00:46:52.780><c> our</c><00:46:53.000><c> children.</c>

00:46:54.780 --> 00:46:55.719

And<00:47:09.000><c> so</c><00:47:09.360><c> verse</c><00:47:09.519><c> 17.</c>

00:47:10.500 --> 00:47:12.460

All<00:47:53.659><c> the</c><00:47:53.960><c> change</c><00:47:54.260><c> that's</c><00:47:54.539><c> coming.</c>

00:47:55.920 --> 00:47:57.559
There<00:47:56.000><c> was</c><00:47:56.119><c> the</c><00:47:56.239><c> days</c><00:47:56.320><c> of</c><00:47:56.500><c> the</c><00:47:56.659><c> judges</c><00:47:56.920><c> weren't</c><00:47:57.159><c> there?</c>

00:47:58.019 --> 00:47:59.480
When<00:47:58.219><c> there</c><00:47:58.400><c> was</c><00:47:58.619><c> no</c><00:47:58.880><c> king</c><00:47:59.019><c> in</c><00:47:59.239><c> Israel.</c>

There<00:47:59.619><c> was</c><00:47:59.719><c> no</c><00:48:00.119><c> centralised</c><00:48:01.139><c> authority.</c>

Whatever<00:48:04.260><c> tribes</c><00:48:04.639><c> might</c><00:48:04.920><c> want</c><00:48:05.059><c> to</c><00:48:05.219><c> wander</c><00:48:05.360><c> off</c><00:48:05.539><c> with</c><00:48:05.780><c> Gideon.</c>

00:48:06.139 --> 00:48:06.880
So<00:48:06.360><c> they</c><00:48:06.619><c> did.</c>

00:48:06.880 --> 00:48:09.019
And<00:48:07.300><c> if</c><00:48:07.440><c> it</c><00:48:07.579><c> was</c><00:48:07.739><c> with</c><00:48:07.880><c> him</c><00:48:07.980><c> you</c><00:48:08.099><c> would</c><00:48:08.320><c> say</c><00:48:08.420><c> they</c><00:48:08.719><c> did.</c>

But<00:48:11.579><c> under</c><00:48:11.840><c> David</c><00:48:12.159><c> they</c><00:48:12.340><c> had</c><00:48:12.579><c> learnt</c><00:48:12.719><c> to</c><00:48:12.960><c> come</c>

00:48:15.940 --> 00:48:17.179
And<00:48:16.099><c> he</c><00:48:16.260><c> eventually</c><00:48:16.559><c> brought</c>

00:48:17.179 --> 00:48:19.019

00:48:25.239 --> 00:48:27.139
But<00:48:25.579><c> the</c><00:48:25.860><c> worship</c><00:48:26.159><c> of</c><00:48:26.440><c> God</c><00:48:26.719><c> was</c><00:48:26.960><c> still</c>

00:48:27.139 --> 00:48:28.699

00:48:28.840 --> 00:48:30.360
And<00:48:29.000><c> so</c><00:48:29.119><c> he</c><00:48:29.260><c> brought</c><00:48:29.380><c> the</c><00:48:29.739><c> ark</c><00:48:29.960><c> in.</c>

00:48:30.860 --> 00:48:32.739
Because<00:48:31.139><c> he</c><00:48:31.260><c> wanted</c><00:48:31.519><c> God</c><00:48:31.900><c> to</c><00:48:32.119><c> be</c><00:48:32.219><c> in</c><00:48:32.300><c> that</c><00:48:32.539><c> kingdom.</c>

00:48:32.960 --> 00:48:35.019
What<00:48:33.119><c> was</c><00:48:33.320><c> that</c><00:48:33.539><c> kingdom</c><00:48:33.800><c> if</c><00:48:33.980><c> God</c><00:48:34.199><c> was</c><00:48:34.440><c> not</c><00:48:34.579><c> in</c><00:48:34.719><c> the</c><00:48:34.860><c> centre</c>

00:48:37.179 --> 00:48:39.679
God<00:48:37.420><c> really</c><00:48:37.719><c> was</c><00:48:37.900><c> the</c><00:48:38.099><c> king</c><00:48:38.219><c> and</c><00:48:38.380><c> he</c><00:48:38.599><c> under</c><00:48:38.940><c> God</c>

00:48:42.559 --> 00:48:43.320
And<00:48:42.719><c> he</c><00:48:42.820><c> came</c><00:48:42.960><c> to</c><00:48:43.159><c> see</c>

00:48:43.320 --> 00:48:46.119

00:48:48.039 --> 00:48:49.059
But<00:48:48.219><c> now</c><00:48:48.460><c> he</c><00:48:48.719><c> really</c>

00:48:49.059 --> 00:48:51.599
