He<00:07:23.139><c> took</c><00:07:23.379><c> the</c><00:07:23.639><c> Levites</c><00:07:23.959><c> to</c><00:07:24.180><c> himself,</c><00:07:24.879><c> and</c><00:07:25.300><c> he</c><00:07:25.459><c> gave</c><00:07:25.660><c> them</c><00:07:26.040><c> back</c>

00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:29.319
to<00:07:26.839><c> Aaron</c><00:07:27.160><c> to</c><00:07:27.660><c> work</c><00:07:28.019><c> for</c><00:07:28.319><c> Aaron.</c>

00:07:29.779 --> 00:07:32.500
God<00:07:30.079><c> has</c><00:07:30.360><c> manifested</c><00:07:30.839><c> himself</c><00:07:31.259><c> in</c><00:07:31.579><c> Christ.</c>

00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:35.639
He<00:07:32.839><c> has</c><00:07:33.120><c> taken</c><00:07:33.439><c> us</c><00:07:33.759><c> to</c><00:07:33.939><c> himself</c><00:07:34.339><c> because</c><00:07:34.680><c> we've</c><00:07:35.139><c> responded</c><00:07:35.459><c> to</c>

00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:36.139
the<00:07:35.779><c> Gospel,</c>

00:07:36.139 --> 00:07:39.199
and<00:07:36.639><c> he</c><00:07:36.800><c> has</c><00:07:37.040><c> now</c><00:07:37.300><c> given</c><00:07:37.500><c> us</c><00:07:37.800><c> back,</c><00:07:38.000><c> if</c><00:07:38.160><c> you</c><00:07:38.319><c> like,</c><00:07:38.920><c> as</c>

00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:40.139
spiritual<00:07:39.779><c> Levites,</c>

00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:44.519
if<00:07:40.300><c> you</c><00:07:40.379><c> like,</c><00:07:40.639><c> as</c><00:07:40.740><c> New</c><00:07:41.000><c> Testament</c><00:07:41.420><c> Levites,</c><00:07:42.480><c> as</c><00:07:42.660><c> workers</c><00:07:43.300><c> for</c>

00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:45.759
the<00:07:44.860><c> equipping</c><00:07:45.139><c> of</c><00:07:45.360><c> the</c><00:07:45.560><c> saints,</c>

00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:47.199
for<00:07:46.019><c> the</c><00:07:46.240><c> work</c><00:07:46.420><c> of</c><00:07:46.600><c> the</c><00:07:46.819><c> ministry.</c>

00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:50.199
This<00:07:47.439><c> is</c><00:07:47.560><c> what</c><00:07:47.699><c> Ephesians</c><00:07:48.160><c> 4</c><00:07:48.420><c> says</c><00:07:48.899><c> in</c><00:07:49.220><c> quoting</c><00:07:49.439><c> Psalm</c><00:07:49.699><c> 68.</c>

00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:53.060
So<00:07:50.519><c> we</c><00:07:50.660><c> have</c><00:07:50.839><c> been</c><00:07:51.139><c> given</c><00:07:51.480><c> back</c><00:07:51.779><c> to</c><00:07:52.000><c> Christ.</c>

00:07:53.980 --> 00:07:57.180
And<00:07:54.120><c> so</c><00:07:54.279><c> time</c><00:07:54.560><c> after</c><00:07:54.860><c> time</c><00:07:55.120><c> in</c><00:07:55.279><c> this</c><00:07:55.540><c> prayer,</c><00:07:56.600><c> the</c><00:07:56.699><c> Lord</c><00:07:56.899><c> says,</c>

00:07:57.519 --> 00:07:58.579
all<00:07:57.519><c> that</c><00:07:57.740><c> thou</c><00:07:57.860><c> hast</c><00:07:58.139><c> given</c><00:07:58.360><c> me.</c>

00:07:58.740 --> 00:08:01.060
So<00:07:58.920><c> there's</c><00:07:59.160><c> two</c><00:07:59.480><c> sides</c><00:07:59.819><c> to</c><00:08:00.019><c> the</c><00:08:00.240><c> story.</c>

00:08:01.860 --> 00:08:04.360
The<00:08:02.120><c> first</c><00:08:02.379><c> side</c><00:08:02.620><c> is</c><00:08:02.740><c> what</c><00:08:02.879><c> we</c><00:08:03.139><c> have</c><00:08:03.259><c> here</c><00:08:03.420><c> in</c><00:08:03.579><c> John</c><00:08:03.839><c> 17,</c>

00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:09.839
where<00:08:04.779><c> the</c><00:08:04.959><c> Lord</c><00:08:05.160><c> is</c><00:08:05.360><c> talking</c><00:08:05.579><c> about</c><00:08:05.860><c> his</c><00:08:06.259><c> role,</c><00:08:07.779><c> how</c><00:08:08.079><c> he</c><00:08:08.500><c> sees</c><00:08:08.839><c> us.</c>

00:08:10.220 --> 00:08:12.000
But,<00:08:10.500><c> of</c><00:08:10.500><c> course,</c><00:08:10.639><c> it's</c><00:08:10.879><c> got</c><00:08:11.000><c> to</c><00:08:11.160><c> be</c><00:08:11.379><c> reciprocated.</c>

00:08:12.220 --> 00:08:14.500
How<00:08:12.480><c> do</c><00:08:12.860><c> we</c><00:08:13.139><c> see</c><00:08:13.420><c> him?</c>

00:08:14.699 --> 00:08:17.259
And<00:08:14.819><c> bear</c><00:08:15.000><c> in</c><00:08:15.180><c> mind</c><00:08:15.259><c> what</c><00:08:15.459><c> the</c><00:08:15.939><c> Levites</c><00:08:16.360><c> were</c><00:08:16.560><c> really</c><00:08:16.899><c> like</c><00:08:17.079><c> in</c>

00:08:17.259 --> 00:08:18.939
the<00:08:17.420><c> Old</c><00:08:17.600><c> Testament</c><00:08:17.939><c> times.</c>

00:08:19.220 --> 00:08:21.199
Their<00:08:19.459><c> work</c><00:08:19.759><c> was</c><00:08:20.019><c> not</c><00:08:20.279><c> glamorous.</c>

00:08:21.300 --> 00:08:24.100
They<00:08:21.579><c> had</c><00:08:21.779><c> what</c><00:08:21.959><c> we</c><00:08:22.120><c> would</c><00:08:22.319><c> call</c><00:08:22.600><c> the</c><00:08:22.920><c> dirty</c><00:08:23.279><c> work.</c>

00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:25.839
They<00:08:24.319><c> had</c><00:08:24.500><c> to</c><00:08:24.800><c> clean</c><00:08:24.939><c> up</c><00:08:25.160><c> the</c><00:08:25.360><c> tabernacle.</c>

00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:28.860
They<00:08:26.339><c> were</c><00:08:26.519><c> the</c><00:08:26.660><c> ones</c><00:08:26.819><c> that</c><00:08:27.000><c> had</c><00:08:27.180><c> to</c><00:08:27.319><c> look</c><00:08:27.480><c> after</c><00:08:27.759><c> all</c><00:08:28.040><c> the</c><00:08:28.279><c> utensils</c><00:08:28.720><c> and</c>

that<00:08:29.040><c> sort</c><00:08:29.180><c> of</c><00:08:29.319><c> thing.</c>

00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:33.740
And,<00:08:29.899><c> you</c><00:08:30.040><c> know,</c><00:08:31.040><c> slaughtering</c><00:08:31.579><c> animals</c><00:08:32.100><c> and</c><00:08:32.440><c> taking</c><00:08:32.779><c> up</c><00:08:33.019><c> the</c><00:08:33.220><c> entrails</c>

00:08:33.740 --> 00:08:38.019

00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:40.519
But<00:08:38.259><c> it</c><00:08:38.379><c> was</c><00:08:38.600><c> a</c><00:08:38.740><c> work</c><00:08:38.899><c> which</c><00:08:39.179><c> they</c><00:08:39.440><c> did</c><00:08:39.720><c> for</c><00:08:40.240><c> Aaron.</c>

00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:44.100
They<00:08:40.960><c> were</c><00:08:41.360><c> given</c><00:08:41.639><c> to</c><00:08:41.919><c> Aaron,</c><00:08:42.580><c> who</c><00:08:42.700><c> was</c><00:08:42.919><c> the</c><00:08:43.019><c> high</c><00:08:43.279><c> priest.</c>
