00:00:53.219 --> 00:00:56.359
That<00:00:53.939><c> is,</c><00:00:54.299><c> that</c><00:00:54.399><c> God</c><00:00:54.560><c> brings</c><00:00:54.899><c> this</c><00:00:55.179><c> northern</c><00:00:55.640><c> invader</c><00:00:56.140><c> into</c>

00:00:57.100 --> 00:01:00.359
who<00:00:57.640><c> conquers</c><00:00:58.060><c> Israel.</c><00:00:58.880><c> Jerusalem</c><00:00:59.359><c> is</c><00:00:59.740><c> captured.</c>

00:01:00.539 --> 00:01:02.560
The<00:01:00.759><c> Jews</c><00:01:00.979><c> go</c><00:01:01.159><c> into</c><00:01:01.380><c> captivity.</c>

00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:07.019
God<00:01:03.960><c> then</c><00:01:04.239><c> calls</c><00:01:04.500><c> for</c><00:01:04.700><c> the</c><00:01:04.879><c> Jews</c><00:01:05.060><c> to</c><00:01:05.319><c> repent,</c><00:01:05.840><c> which</c><00:01:06.079><c> they</c><00:01:06.400><c> do</c><00:01:06.700><c> so,</c>

00:01:09.120 --> 00:01:11.560
And<00:01:09.260><c> then</c><00:01:09.459><c> Yahweh</c><00:01:09.739><c> responds</c><00:01:10.299><c> to</c><00:01:10.560><c> Israel's</c><00:01:11.159><c> repentance</c>

00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:14.939
by<00:01:11.959><c> intervening</c><00:01:12.659><c> to</c><00:01:12.859><c> destroy</c><00:01:13.280><c> the</c><00:01:13.500><c> northern</c><00:01:13.900><c> invader,</c>

00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:17.780
the<00:01:15.319><c> outcome</c><00:01:15.620><c> of</c><00:01:15.879><c> which</c><00:01:16.299><c> is</c><00:01:16.659><c> Israel</c><00:01:17.060><c> is</c><00:01:17.480><c> blessed</c>

00:01:19.700 --> 00:01:24.260
And<00:01:20.480><c> as</c><00:01:20.719><c> a</c><00:01:20.840><c> result</c><00:01:21.239><c> of</c><00:01:21.620><c> the</c><00:01:21.799><c> invasion</c><00:01:22.239><c> and</c><00:01:22.560><c> the</c><00:01:22.819><c> defeat</c><00:01:23.079><c> of</c><00:01:23.299><c> the</c><00:01:23.500><c> invader,</c>

00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:26.819
Israel<00:01:25.239><c> goes</c><00:01:25.480><c> on</c><00:01:25.719><c> to</c><00:01:25.859><c> become</c><00:01:26.060><c> a</c><00:01:26.219><c> new</c><00:01:26.379><c> people</c>

00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:33.159
Now,<00:01:30.299><c> there</c><00:01:30.500><c> are</c><00:01:31.599><c> many</c><00:01:32.019><c> places</c><00:01:32.439><c> in</c><00:01:32.799><c> Scripture</c>

00:01:36.819 --> 00:01:38.700
But<00:01:36.959><c> as</c><00:01:37.120><c> we've</c><00:01:37.420><c> tried</c><00:01:37.540><c> to</c><00:01:37.760><c> do</c><00:01:37.879><c> each</c><00:01:38.299><c> morning,</c>

00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:45.359

We<00:01:49.819><c> know</c><00:01:50.019><c> it</c><00:01:50.260><c> well.</c>

00:01:50.579 --> 00:01:54.140
It's<00:01:50.680><c> the</c><00:01:50.819><c> place</c><00:01:51.060><c> where</c><00:01:51.299><c> Peter</c><00:01:51.540><c> recounts</c><00:01:52.420><c> the</c><00:01:52.659><c> transfiguration.</c>

00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:54.099
But<00:02:50.800><c> what</c><00:02:50.919><c> the</c><00:02:51.180><c> three</c><00:02:51.340><c> disciples</c><00:02:51.800><c> saw</c><00:02:52.240><c> on</c><00:02:52.460><c> the</c><00:02:52.639><c> mountain</c><00:02:52.939><c> that</c><00:02:53.240><c> night</c>

00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:56.639
was<00:02:54.879><c> the</c><00:02:55.060><c> glorified</c><00:02:55.560><c> presence</c><00:02:55.919><c> of</c><00:02:56.139><c> the</c><00:02:56.280><c> Son.</c>

00:02:57.020 --> 00:02:59.520
And<00:02:57.180><c> the</c><00:02:57.300><c> impact</c><00:02:57.680><c> was</c><00:02:57.879><c> so</c><00:02:58.219><c> significant</c><00:02:58.840><c> upon</c><00:02:59.219><c> Peter</c>

00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:02.919
that<00:02:59.740><c> he's</c><00:03:00.039><c> still</c><00:03:00.280><c> writing</c><00:03:00.560><c> about</c><00:03:00.860><c> it</c><00:03:01.020><c> at</c><00:03:01.219><c> the</c><00:03:01.419><c> end</c><00:03:01.580><c> of</c><00:03:01.740><c> his</c><00:03:01.919><c> life.</c>

00:03:03.219 --> 00:03:06.240
And<00:03:03.659><c> it's</c><00:03:03.960><c> this</c><00:03:04.259><c> living</c><00:03:04.759><c> prophecy</c><00:03:05.280><c> he</c><00:03:05.639><c> witnessed</c>

00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:09.039
that<00:03:06.860><c> he</c><00:03:07.099><c> seeks</c><00:03:07.280><c> to</c><00:03:07.659><c> impress</c><00:03:08.099><c> upon</c><00:03:08.479><c> the</c><00:03:08.719><c> believers</c>

00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:13.379

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:17.460
So<00:03:14.639><c> as</c><00:03:14.919><c> our</c><00:03:15.060><c> first</c><00:03:15.319><c> proof</c><00:03:15.699><c> that</c><00:03:16.020><c> what</c><00:03:16.199><c> Peter</c><00:03:16.520><c> saw</c><00:03:16.840><c> he</c><00:03:17.120><c> regarded</c>

00:03:22.139 --> 00:03:24.939
We<00:03:22.139><c> did</c><00:03:22.159><c> not</c><00:03:22.520><c> follow</c><00:03:23.020><c> cleverly</c><00:03:23.780><c> devised</c><00:03:24.259><c> myths</c>

00:03:24.939 --> 00:03:27.699
when<00:03:25.419><c> we</c><00:03:25.580><c> made</c><00:03:25.840><c> known</c><00:03:26.120><c> to</c><00:03:26.259><c> you</c><00:03:26.419><c> the</c><00:03:26.620><c> power</c><00:03:27.099><c> and</c><00:03:27.460><c> coming</c>

00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:31.780
He's<00:03:30.240><c> speaking</c><00:03:30.560><c> of</c><00:03:30.719><c> the</c><00:03:30.900><c> Kingdom.</c>

00:03:31.939 --> 00:03:34.879
Jesus<00:03:32.300><c> would</c><00:03:32.659><c> prophesy</c><00:03:33.300><c> in</c><00:03:33.539><c> the</c><00:03:33.680><c> Mount</c><00:03:33.860><c> Elivet</c><00:03:34.180><c> prophecy</c>

00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:41.979
Peter<00:03:37.639><c> says</c><00:03:37.960><c> we</c><00:03:38.319><c> saw</c><00:03:39.180><c> Jesus</c><00:03:40.159><c> come</c><00:03:40.599><c> in</c><00:03:41.039><c> power</c><00:03:41.460><c> and</c><00:03:41.800><c> glory.</c>

00:03:41.979 --> 00:03:44.819
We<00:03:42.199><c> were</c><00:03:42.479><c> eyewitnesses</c><00:03:43.460><c> of</c><00:03:43.560><c> His</c><00:03:43.819><c> Majesty.</c>

00:03:45.300 --> 00:03:47.979
So<00:03:45.500><c> in</c><00:03:45.719><c> Peter's</c><00:03:46.300><c> mind</c><00:03:46.479><c> what</c><00:03:46.639><c> he</c><00:03:46.919><c> saw</c><00:03:47.139><c> was</c><00:03:47.419><c> the</c><00:03:47.699><c> future,</c>

00:03:48.039 --> 00:03:50.240
the<00:03:48.319><c> second</c><00:03:48.639><c> coming</c><00:03:49.000><c> of</c><00:03:49.280><c> Christ.</c>

00:03:51.099 --> 00:03:53.520
He<00:03:51.319><c> now</c><00:03:51.620><c> understood,</c><00:03:52.180><c> as</c><00:03:52.379><c> did</c><00:03:52.520><c> the</c><00:03:52.680><c> other</c><00:03:52.860><c> two</c><00:03:53.080><c> disciples,</c>

that<00:03:53.740><c> they</c><00:03:53.879><c> had</c><00:03:54.060><c> been</c><00:03:54.319><c> privileged</c><00:03:54.680><c> to</c><00:03:54.960><c> see</c><00:03:55.199><c> Christ</c><00:03:55.900><c> come</c>

00:03:58.060 --> 00:03:59.680
And<00:03:58.219><c> it</c><00:03:58.280><c> wasn't</c><00:03:58.680><c> a</c><00:03:58.919><c> fable,</c><00:03:59.139><c> he</c><00:03:59.419><c> says.</c>

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:01.620
We<00:04:00.340><c> saw</c><00:04:00.659><c> it.</c>

00:04:01.819 --> 00:04:02.960
This<00:04:02.139><c> isn't</c><00:04:02.460><c> folklore.</c>

00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:04.080
We<00:04:03.159><c> didn't</c><00:04:03.379><c> make</c><00:04:03.599><c> it</c><00:04:03.780><c> up.</c>

00:04:04.259 --> 00:04:07.099
We<00:04:04.379><c> were</c><00:04:04.639><c> eyewitnesses</c><00:04:05.680><c> of</c><00:04:05.800><c> His</c><00:04:06.060><c> Majesty.</c>

00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:09.120
And<00:04:07.840><c> you</c><00:04:07.979><c> can</c><00:04:08.240><c> tell</c><00:04:08.520><c> from</c><00:04:08.719><c> the</c><00:04:08.919><c> record</c>

00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:11.960
that<00:04:09.300><c> Peter</c><00:04:09.520><c> has</c><00:04:09.800><c> recounted</c><00:04:10.280><c> these</c><00:04:10.439><c> events</c><00:04:10.699><c> before</c><00:04:11.159><c> to</c><00:04:11.319><c> his</c><00:04:11.520><c> readers</c>

00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.060

00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:18.879
So<00:04:15.460><c> this</c><00:04:15.639><c> is</c><00:04:15.860><c> something</c><00:04:16.079><c> that</c><00:04:16.319><c> Peter</c><00:04:16.500><c> had</c><00:04:16.779><c> spoken</c><00:04:17.079><c> of</c><00:04:17.819><c> oftentimes.</c>

00:06:24.500 --> 00:06:27.980
Because<00:06:24.819><c> it's</c><00:06:25.139><c> Peter</c><00:06:25.459><c> that</c><00:06:25.680><c> is</c><00:06:25.980><c> equating</c><00:06:27.120><c> the</c><00:06:27.480><c> events</c><00:06:27.660><c> on</c><00:06:27.839><c> the</c>

00:06:29.540 --> 00:06:33.180
And<00:06:30.519><c> it</c><00:06:30.660><c> will</c><00:06:30.899><c> continue</c><00:06:31.399><c> to</c><00:06:31.660><c> shine</c><00:06:31.899><c> for</c><00:06:32.240><c> us</c><00:06:32.459><c> until</c><00:06:32.740><c> the</c><00:06:32.939><c> day</c>

00:06:33.180 --> 00:06:34.399
dawn,<00:06:33.759><c> Peter</c><00:06:34.040><c> says,</c>

00:06:34.500 --> 00:06:38.120
when<00:06:34.600><c> the</c><00:06:34.740><c> Son</c><00:06:34.899><c> of</c><00:06:35.100><c> Righteousness</c><00:06:35.680><c> shall</c><00:06:35.899><c> appear,</c><00:06:36.399><c> as</c><00:06:36.579><c> we</c><00:06:36.660><c> know</c><00:06:36.819><c> from</c><00:06:37.060><c> Malachi</c><00:06:37.540><c> 4.</c>

00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:43.040
And<00:06:38.660><c> the</c><00:06:38.939><c> bright</c><00:06:39.339><c> morning</c><00:06:39.839><c> star</c><00:06:40.459><c> from</c><00:06:40.740><c> Revelation</c><00:06:41.180><c> 22,</c><00:06:41.800><c> 16,</c>

00:06:43.399 --> 00:06:48.220
whom<00:06:43.579><c> Peter</c><00:06:43.939><c> saw</c><00:06:44.220><c> in</c><00:06:44.540><c> prophecy</c><00:06:44.980><c> at</c><00:06:45.779><c> the</c><00:06:46.019><c> transfiguration,</c><00:06:46.980><c> will</c><00:06:47.100><c> be</c><00:06:47.319><c> revealed.</c>

00:06:48.579 --> 00:06:53.000
So<00:06:48.759><c> it's</c><00:06:50.600><c> quite</c><00:06:50.800><c> helpful,</c><00:06:51.139><c> I</c><00:06:51.300><c> think,</c><00:06:51.540><c> to</c><00:06:51.800><c> see</c><00:06:52.040><c> the</c><00:06:52.439><c> power</c><00:06:52.800><c> of</c>

00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:54.040
the<00:06:53.259><c> transfiguration</c>

00:06:56.980 --> 00:07:00.199
But<00:06:57.180><c> then</c><00:06:57.519><c> it's</c><00:06:58.000><c> also</c><00:06:58.000><c> significant</c><00:06:58.579><c> to</c><00:06:58.819><c> note</c><00:06:58.939><c> that</c><00:06:59.100><c> he</c><00:06:59.360><c> equates</c><00:06:59.699><c> that,</c>

00:07:00.660 --> 00:07:03.560

00:07:03.620 --> 00:07:06.879
as<00:07:04.060><c> the</c><00:07:04.480><c> prophecy</c><00:07:04.920><c> that</c><00:07:05.139><c> we've</c><00:07:05.300><c> been</c><00:07:05.420><c> looking</c><00:07:05.660><c> at</c><00:07:05.839><c> this</c><00:07:06.060><c> week.</c>

00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:09.300
So<00:07:08.420><c> we'll</c><00:07:08.560><c> turn</c><00:07:08.699><c> back</c><00:07:08.939><c> to</c><00:07:09.160><c> Joel.</c>

00:07:09.339 --> 00:07:12.860
We<00:07:09.480><c> want</c><00:07:09.639><c> to</c><00:07:09.779><c> finish</c><00:07:09.959><c> up</c><00:07:10.180><c> there</c><00:07:10.399><c> before</c><00:07:10.839><c> diving</c><00:07:11.339><c> into</c><00:07:11.639><c> Zechariah.</c>

00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:17.139
I<00:07:13.759><c> believe</c><00:07:13.939><c> yesterday</c><00:07:14.319><c> we</c><00:07:14.540><c> reached</c><00:07:14.819><c> the</c><00:07:15.100><c> end</c><00:07:15.319><c> of</c><00:07:15.480><c> Joel</c><00:07:15.680><c> chapter</c><00:07:16.060><c> 2.</c>

00:07:17.379 --> 00:07:21.600
Just<00:07:17.660><c> wanted</c><00:07:17.800><c> to</c><00:07:17.980><c> make</c><00:07:18.120><c> sure</c><00:07:18.300><c> everyone</c><00:07:18.620><c> has</c><00:07:18.860><c> a</c><00:07:19.160><c> handout</c><00:07:19.579><c> or</c><00:07:20.420><c> has</c><00:07:20.699><c> access</c><00:07:21.060><c> to</c><00:07:21.279><c> one.</c>

00:07:22.100 --> 00:07:23.819
I<00:07:22.240><c> think</c><00:07:22.439><c> we</c><00:07:22.639><c> were</c><00:07:22.800><c> three</c><00:07:23.100><c> or</c><00:07:23.240><c> four</c><00:07:23.500><c> short.</c>

00:07:23.819 --> 00:07:27.120
It<00:07:23.959><c> would</c><00:07:24.120><c> be</c><00:07:24.319><c> helpful</c><00:07:24.620><c> if</c><00:07:24.899><c> everyone</c><00:07:26.120><c> can</c><00:07:26.379><c> have</c><00:07:26.579><c> access</c><00:07:26.899><c> to</c>

00:07:27.959 --> 00:07:31.220

00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:54.400
Yahweh<00:18:51.960><c> then</c><00:18:52.279><c> roars</c><00:18:52.680><c> out</c><00:18:53.000><c> of</c><00:18:53.200><c> Zion</c><00:18:53.460><c> in</c><00:18:53.640><c> verse</c><00:18:53.859><c> 16</c>

00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:16.900
then<00:20:15.140><c> we</c><00:20:15.259><c> don't</c><00:20:15.559><c> appreciate</c><00:20:16.220><c> what</c><00:20:16.460><c> the</c><00:20:16.700><c> Jews</c>

00:20:25.660 --> 00:20:27.720
It<00:20:25.740><c> just</c><00:20:25.980><c> means</c><00:20:26.160><c> when</c><00:20:26.299><c> we</c><00:20:26.500><c> come</c><00:20:26.660><c> across</c><00:20:27.000><c> this</c><00:20:27.279><c> phrase,</c>

00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:33.619
It's<00:20:32.200><c> covering</c><00:20:32.460><c> a</c><00:20:32.799><c> lengthy</c><00:20:33.099><c> period</c>

00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:53.079

00:20:53.099 --> 00:20:55.460

00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:06.079
This<00:21:02.380><c> is</c><00:21:02.660><c> nonsensical</c><00:21:03.559><c> unless</c><00:21:04.160><c> God</c><00:21:04.440><c> is</c><00:21:04.680><c> in</c><00:21:04.839><c> control</c><00:21:05.220><c> of</c><00:21:05.380><c> these</c><00:21:05.559><c> events.</c>

which<00:22:12.279><c> shows</c><00:22:12.480><c> us</c><00:22:12.720><c> that</c><00:22:12.960><c> when</c><00:22:13.339><c> Yahweh</c><00:22:13.880><c> roars</c><00:22:14.519><c> or</c><00:22:14.880><c> utters</c><00:22:15.160><c> his</c><00:22:15.480><c> voice,</c>

00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:18.640
he<00:22:15.980><c> is</c><00:22:16.079><c> going</c><00:22:16.359><c> forth</c><00:22:16.779><c> in</c><00:22:17.000><c> a</c><00:22:17.180><c> demonstrable</c><00:22:17.759><c> manner.</c>

00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:21.839
There<00:22:18.900><c> are</c><00:22:19.140><c> two</c><00:22:19.339><c> battles</c><00:22:20.480><c> depicted</c><00:22:21.279><c> in</c><00:22:21.599><c> Joel.</c>

00:22:21.940 --> 00:22:25.720
There<00:22:22.099><c> are</c><00:22:22.359><c> actually</c><00:22:22.559><c> two</c><00:22:22.799><c> battles</c><00:22:23.160><c> depicted</c><00:22:23.619><c> in</c><00:22:24.519><c> Ezekiel</c>

00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:28.920
and,<00:22:26.160><c> as</c><00:22:26.400><c> we</c><00:22:26.500><c> know,</c><00:22:26.779><c> two</c><00:22:26.880><c> battles</c><00:22:27.279><c> depicted</c><00:22:27.759><c> in</c><00:22:28.059><c> Daniel.</c>

00:22:29.299 --> 00:22:32.519
Take<00:22:29.519><c> a</c><00:22:29.640><c> look</c><00:22:29.759><c> at</c><00:22:30.039><c> number</c><00:22:30.339><c> 19</c><00:22:30.859><c> on</c><00:22:31.059><c> the</c><00:22:31.259><c> chart,</c><00:22:31.420><c> for</c><00:22:31.660><c> instance.</c>

00:22:32.579 --> 00:22:33.799
We've<00:22:33.039><c> broken</c><00:22:33.200><c> it</c><00:22:33.440><c> in</c><00:22:33.640><c> half.</c>

00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:36.740
The<00:22:34.039><c> invader</c><00:22:34.440><c> is</c><00:22:34.680><c> initially</c><00:22:35.119><c> victorious</c><00:22:35.799><c> over</c><00:22:36.160><c> Israel,</c>

00:22:37.180 --> 00:22:39.420

00:22:39.640 --> 00:22:43.140
But<00:22:39.819><c> then</c><00:22:40.119><c> they</c><00:22:40.299><c> are</c><00:22:40.700><c> slain</c><00:22:41.200><c> in</c><00:22:41.380><c> a</c><00:22:41.579><c> subsequent</c><00:22:42.099><c> battle.</c>

00:22:43.819 --> 00:22:46.319
So<00:22:44.019><c> the</c><00:22:44.200><c> initial</c><00:22:44.480><c> battle,</c><00:22:45.240><c> Gog,</c><00:22:45.279><c> is</c><00:22:45.519><c> victorious.</c>

00:22:46.700 --> 00:22:49.240
In<00:22:46.940><c> the</c><00:22:47.140><c> subsequent</c><00:22:47.599><c> battle</c><00:22:47.960><c> of</c><00:22:48.140><c> Armageddon,</c>

00:22:49.740 --> 00:22:51.859

00:22:52.400 --> 00:22:55.039
Sixthly,<00:22:52.940><c> Joel</c><00:22:53.140><c> describes</c><00:22:53.640><c> how</c><00:22:53.839><c> God</c><00:22:54.059><c> brings</c><00:22:54.380><c> judgment</c><00:22:54.720><c> upon</c>

00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:57.500
both<00:22:55.380><c> Israel</c><00:22:55.859><c> and</c><00:22:56.220><c> the</c><00:22:56.380><c> invading</c><00:22:56.700><c> Gentiles.</c>

00:22:57.759 --> 00:23:00.000
This<00:22:58.059><c> is</c><00:22:58.240><c> where</c><00:22:58.359><c> we</c><00:22:58.519><c> ended</c><00:22:58.640><c> up</c><00:22:58.880><c> yesterday</c><00:22:59.259><c> with</c><00:22:59.480><c> the</c><00:22:59.759><c> point</c>

00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:02.119
that<00:23:00.140><c> it's</c><00:23:00.319><c> quite</c><00:23:00.519><c> interesting</c><00:23:00.920><c> to</c><00:23:01.180><c> see</c><00:23:01.380><c> that</c><00:23:01.559><c> God</c><00:23:01.839><c> will</c>

00:23:02.119 --> 00:23:02.940

00:23:02.940 --> 00:23:06.539
for<00:23:03.079><c> their</c><00:23:03.319><c> wickedness</c><00:23:04.200><c> and</c><00:23:04.759><c> cause</c><00:23:05.059><c> great</c><00:23:05.460><c> suffering</c><00:23:05.859><c> upon</c><00:23:06.259><c> them,</c>

00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:08.079

00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:09.839

00:23:10.299 --> 00:23:13.539
And<00:23:10.500><c> God</c><00:23:10.660><c> will</c><00:23:10.900><c> bring</c><00:23:11.119><c> great</c><00:23:11.539><c> judgment</c><00:23:12.079><c> upon</c><00:23:12.480><c> the</c><00:23:12.680><c> Gentile</c><00:23:13.140><c> nations</c>

00:23:13.539 --> 00:23:16.660
who<00:23:13.720><c> are</c><00:23:13.859><c> gathered</c><00:23:14.059><c> to</c><00:23:14.279><c> Armageddon</c><00:23:14.720><c> because</c><00:23:15.059><c> of</c><00:23:15.220><c> their</c><00:23:15.400><c> wickedness.</c>

00:23:16.859 --> 00:23:20.140
And<00:23:17.099><c> as</c><00:23:17.259><c> a</c><00:23:17.319><c> result</c><00:23:17.619><c> of</c><00:23:17.779><c> his</c><00:23:18.000><c> judgment,</c><00:23:18.380><c> they</c><00:23:18.599><c> will</c><00:23:19.079><c> rebel</c><00:23:19.440><c> further</c>

and<00:23:20.599><c> they</c><00:23:20.740><c> will</c><00:23:20.960><c> be</c><00:23:21.160><c> cast</c><00:23:21.380><c> out</c><00:23:21.640><c> of</c><00:23:21.759><c> the</c><00:23:21.960><c> kingdom.</c>

00:23:23.460 --> 00:23:26.599
So<00:23:23.759><c> two</c><00:23:23.980><c> groups</c><00:23:24.240><c> of</c><00:23:24.500><c> people</c><00:23:25.059><c> brought</c><00:23:25.380><c> under</c><00:23:25.759><c> severe</c><00:23:26.160><c> judgment</c>

00:23:26.599 --> 00:23:27.180
of<00:23:26.839><c> God</c>

00:23:27.180 --> 00:23:29.319
because<00:23:27.599><c> of</c><00:23:27.759><c> their</c><00:23:27.940><c> wickedness.</c>

00:23:29.460 --> 00:23:31.920
One<00:23:29.859><c> repents</c><00:23:30.559><c> and</c><00:23:30.900><c> turns</c><00:23:31.240><c> to</c><00:23:31.460><c> God.</c>

00:23:31.920 --> 00:23:36.019
The<00:23:32.640><c> other</c><00:23:32.880><c> one</c><00:23:33.079><c> rebels</c><00:23:33.460><c> even</c><00:23:33.880><c> further</c><00:23:34.180><c> as</c><00:23:34.380><c> we</c><00:23:34.559><c> see</c><00:23:34.740><c> in</c><00:23:35.359><c> the</c><00:23:35.519><c> Revelation</c>

00:23:40.240 --> 00:23:43.019
Lastly,<00:23:40.700><c> we</c><00:23:40.779><c> see</c><00:23:41.000><c> in</c><00:23:41.180><c> Joel</c><00:23:41.400><c> that</c><00:23:41.559><c> it</c><00:23:41.700><c> is</c><00:23:41.940><c> a</c><00:23:42.160><c> holy</c><00:23:42.519><c> war.</c>

00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:49.039
It's<00:23:46.099><c> a</c><00:23:46.279><c> holy</c><00:23:46.460><c> war</c><00:23:46.680><c> that</c><00:23:46.880><c> the</c><00:23:47.039><c> Gogian</c><00:23:47.400><c> invaders</c><00:23:47.859><c> unleash</c><00:23:48.299><c> upon</c><00:23:48.559><c> Israel.</c>

00:23:49.500 --> 00:23:53.559
And<00:23:49.599><c> you</c><00:23:49.700><c> can</c><00:23:49.859><c> begin</c><00:23:50.039><c> to</c><00:23:50.420><c> see</c><00:23:50.779><c> how</c><00:23:51.079><c> that</c><00:23:51.380><c> can</c><00:23:51.559><c> be</c><00:23:51.759><c> a</c><00:23:51.940><c> motivating</c><00:23:52.420><c> force.</c>

00:24:02.740 --> 00:24:05.160

00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:41.599
is<00:24:37.599><c> how</c><00:24:37.720><c> it's</c><00:24:37.960><c> used,</c><00:24:38.200><c> I</c><00:24:38.279><c> think,</c><00:24:38.500><c> in</c><00:24:38.640><c> chapter</c><00:24:38.980><c> 2</c><00:24:39.900><c> and</c><00:24:40.240><c> earlier</c><00:24:40.579><c> references.</c>

00:24:41.859 --> 00:24:44.619
Rotherhams<00:24:42.500><c> has</c><00:24:43.140><c> hollow</c><00:24:43.740><c> a</c><00:24:44.279><c> war.</c>

00:24:44.940 --> 00:24:47.700
And<00:24:45.079><c> that's</c><00:24:45.319><c> the</c><00:24:45.559><c> battle</c><00:24:45.880><c> cry</c><00:24:46.200><c> of</c><00:24:46.519><c> the</c><00:24:46.720><c> Gogian</c><00:24:47.140><c> invaders</c>

00:24:47.700 --> 00:24:50.740
that<00:24:48.180><c> are</c><00:24:48.339><c> coming</c><00:24:48.599><c> down</c><00:24:49.440><c> into</c><00:24:49.740><c> Israel.</c>

00:24:51.420 --> 00:24:56.359
So<00:24:51.640><c> the</c><00:24:51.819><c> conclusion</c><00:24:52.279><c> is</c><00:24:53.019><c> this</c><00:24:53.440><c> is</c><00:24:53.779><c> the</c><00:24:54.180><c> last</c><00:24:54.920><c> and</c><00:24:55.539><c> final</c>

00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:02.359
will<00:25:00.680><c> commit</c><00:25:01.059><c> against</c><00:25:01.500><c> Israel.</c>

00:25:03.339 --> 00:25:07.000
The<00:25:03.900><c> outcome</c><00:25:04.319><c> will</c><00:25:04.599><c> be</c><00:25:04.880><c> atrocious</c><00:25:05.559><c> for</c><00:25:05.920><c> the</c><00:25:06.099><c> Jews,</c>

00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:08.980
but<00:25:07.319><c> it's</c><00:25:07.579><c> from</c><00:25:07.859><c> this</c><00:25:08.180><c> outcome</c><00:25:08.599><c> we</c><00:25:08.799><c> know</c>

00:25:08.980 --> 00:25:11.940
and<00:25:09.119><c> as</c><00:25:09.299><c> we've</c><00:25:09.539><c> seen</c><00:25:09.759><c> that</c><00:25:09.940><c> God</c><00:25:10.160><c> will</c><00:25:10.359><c> be</c><00:25:10.500><c> able</c><00:25:10.660><c> to</c><00:25:10.920><c> save</c><00:25:11.059><c> them.</c>

00:25:13.319 --> 00:25:15.339
Okay,<00:25:13.619><c> we</c><00:25:13.720><c> want</c><00:25:13.859><c> to</c><00:25:13.960><c> move</c><00:25:14.079><c> now</c><00:25:14.420><c> on</c><00:25:14.599><c> to</c><00:25:14.859><c> Zechariah.</c>

00:25:15.420 --> 00:25:17.420
This<00:25:15.579><c> should</c><00:25:15.799><c> also</c><00:25:16.079><c> be</c><00:25:16.240><c> in</c><00:25:16.319><c> your</c><00:25:16.539><c> handout.</c>

00:25:19.519 --> 00:25:21.099
We're<00:25:19.740><c> going</c><00:25:19.880><c> to</c><00:25:20.140><c> find</c><00:25:20.319><c> that</c><00:25:20.579><c> Zechariah</c>

00:25:21.099 --> 00:25:23.359
follows<00:25:21.440><c> a</c><00:25:21.700><c> very</c><00:25:22.180><c> similar</c><00:25:22.619><c> pattern</c>

00:25:23.359 --> 00:25:27.980
in<00:25:24.440><c> what</c><00:25:24.799><c> we've</c><00:25:25.160><c> seen</c><00:25:25.319><c> in</c><00:25:25.819><c> Ezekiel,</c><00:25:26.380><c> Daniel,</c><00:25:26.980><c> and</c><00:25:27.220><c> Joel.</c>

00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:30.259
The<00:25:28.339><c> reason</c><00:25:28.539><c> we're</c><00:25:28.720><c> taking</c><00:25:28.980><c> the</c><00:25:29.180><c> time</c><00:25:29.319><c> to</c><00:25:29.460><c> go</c><00:25:29.619><c> through</c><00:25:29.880><c> these</c>

00:25:30.259 --> 00:25:34.000

00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:40.680
because<00:25:38.099><c> God</c><00:25:38.400><c> is</c><00:25:38.740><c> telling</c><00:25:38.900><c> us</c><00:25:39.140><c> basically</c><00:25:39.619><c> the</c><00:25:39.920><c> same</c><00:25:40.240><c> thing</c>

00:25:43.599 --> 00:25:45.839
We<00:25:43.920><c> have</c><00:25:44.160><c> found</c><00:25:44.480><c> these</c><00:25:44.859><c> four</c><00:25:45.200><c> prophets,</c>

00:25:48.539 --> 00:25:53.079

00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:38.259

00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:16.099
Zechariah<00:27:12.259><c> now</c><00:27:12.539><c> turns</c><00:27:12.880><c> his</c><00:27:13.119><c> attention</c><00:27:13.819><c> to</c><00:27:14.440><c> a</c><00:27:14.660><c> future</c><00:27:14.960><c> day</c>

00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:34.279
And<00:27:31.220><c> really</c><00:27:31.559><c> the</c><00:27:32.059><c> primary</c><00:27:32.640><c> focus,</c><00:27:33.119><c> you</c><00:27:33.299><c> might</c><00:27:33.579><c> say,</c>

of<00:27:34.759><c> chapters</c><00:27:35.099><c> 12,</c><00:27:35.519><c> 13,</c><00:27:36.019><c> and</c><00:27:36.140><c> 14</c><00:27:36.539><c> is</c><00:27:36.920><c> to</c><00:27:37.299><c> show</c><00:27:37.500><c> us</c>

00:27:38.200 --> 00:27:43.140
how<00:27:38.980><c> Israel</c><00:27:39.460><c> will</c><00:27:39.960><c> finally</c><00:27:40.440><c> come</c><00:27:40.900><c> to</c><00:27:41.220><c> accept</c><00:27:41.839><c> their</c><00:27:42.140><c> Messiah.</c>

00:27:43.640 --> 00:27:46.319
And<00:27:43.880><c> it's</c><00:27:44.079><c> quite</c><00:27:44.420><c> fitting</c><00:27:44.660><c> that</c><00:27:44.900><c> the</c><00:27:45.099><c> context</c><00:27:45.480><c> for</c><00:27:45.700><c> that</c><00:27:45.940><c> be</c>

00:27:56.500 --> 00:27:58.480
The<00:27:56.819><c> general</c><00:27:57.140><c> structure,</c><00:27:57.839><c> as</c><00:27:58.099><c> we</c><00:27:58.319><c> say,</c>

00:27:58.680 --> 00:28:01.759
mirrors<00:27:58.859><c> what</c><00:27:59.099><c> we've</c><00:27:59.339><c> already</c><00:27:59.599><c> seen</c><00:27:59.859><c> in</c><00:28:00.000><c> the</c><00:28:00.119><c> other</c><00:28:00.299><c> three</c><00:28:00.539><c> prophets.</c>

00:28:06.539 --> 00:28:10.720
so<00:28:06.839><c> once</c><00:28:07.099><c> again</c><00:28:07.440><c> we</c><00:28:07.640><c> have</c><00:28:08.700><c> cut</c><00:28:09.099><c> and</c><00:28:09.440><c> pasted</c><00:28:10.119><c> the</c><00:28:10.359><c> chapter</c>

00:28:14.339 --> 00:28:16.700
it<00:28:14.579><c> will</c><00:28:14.859><c> aid</c><00:28:15.119><c> you</c><00:28:15.359><c> in</c><00:28:15.460><c> understanding</c>

how<00:28:17.759><c> the</c><00:28:18.359><c> prophecy</c><00:28:18.779><c> is</c><00:28:20.640><c> presented</c><00:28:22.859><c> to</c><00:28:23.160><c> us.</c>

00:28:27.420 --> 00:28:29.200
Section<00:28:27.720><c> one</c><00:28:27.980><c> is</c><00:28:28.220><c> Israel</c><00:28:28.539><c> is</c><00:28:28.799><c> invaded,</c>

00:28:34.099 --> 00:28:35.259
They're<00:28:34.279><c> successfully</c><00:28:34.799><c> overrun</c>

Section<00:28:39.180><c> two</c><00:28:39.559><c> is</c><00:28:39.819><c> where</c><00:28:40.500><c> God</c><00:28:40.779><c> goes</c><00:28:41.079><c> forth</c>

00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:42.440

00:28:46.039 --> 00:28:48.759
Section<00:28:46.339><c> three</c><00:28:46.819><c> is</c><00:28:47.480><c> detailed</c><00:28:47.980><c> in</c><00:28:48.220><c> Zechariah,</c>

00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:50.640
unlike<00:28:49.160><c> any</c><00:28:49.480><c> other</c><00:28:49.720><c> prophet,</c>

00:28:50.859 --> 00:28:53.839
in<00:28:51.019><c> which</c><00:28:51.240><c> Israel</c><00:28:51.619><c> undergoes</c><00:28:52.259><c> national</c><00:28:52.599><c> mourning</c><00:28:52.940><c> and</c><00:28:53.279><c> conversion.</c>

00:28:54.319 --> 00:28:56.220
And<00:28:54.559><c> then</c><00:28:54.740><c> we</c><00:28:54.920><c> come</c><00:28:55.099><c> to</c><00:28:55.299><c> this</c><00:28:55.519><c> fourth</c><00:28:55.720><c> section,</c>

00:28:56.420 --> 00:28:59.240

00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:02.440
So<00:29:00.819><c> these</c><00:29:01.019><c> three</c><00:29:01.240><c> chapters</c><00:29:01.599><c> stand</c><00:29:01.980><c> alone,</c>

00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:06.279
It's<00:29:05.200><c> a</c><00:29:05.339><c> little</c><00:29:05.460><c> more</c><00:29:05.720><c> difficult</c>

00:29:06.279 --> 00:29:08.119

00:29:20.039 --> 00:29:24.099
But<00:29:20.180><c> we</c><00:29:20.339><c> do</c><00:29:20.500><c> have</c><00:29:20.720><c> 18</c><00:29:21.220><c> times</c><00:29:22.160><c> in</c><00:29:22.940><c> 12,</c><00:29:23.240><c> 13,</c><00:29:23.680><c> and</c><00:29:23.779><c> 14,</c>

00:29:37.960 --> 00:29:40.059
It's,<00:29:38.700><c> again,</c><00:29:38.779><c> like</c><00:29:39.039><c> in</c><00:29:39.220><c> the</c><00:29:39.400><c> case</c><00:29:39.640><c> with</c><00:29:39.859><c> Joel,</c>

end<00:36:49.019><c> times.</c>

00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:53.519

Again,<00:36:57.280><c> hopefully</c><00:36:57.599><c> it</c><00:36:57.780><c> becomes</c><00:36:58.039><c> a</c><00:36:58.179><c> bit</c><00:36:58.280><c> more</c><00:36:58.599><c> repetitious</c>

00:47:17.599 --> 00:47:19.599
We're<00:47:17.780><c> back</c><00:47:18.059><c> at</c><00:47:18.239><c> Acts</c><00:47:18.440><c> 3</c><00:47:18.699><c> in</c><00:47:18.900><c> Zechariah</c><00:47:19.320><c> 12.</c>

00:47:19.619 --> 00:47:21.360
They<00:47:19.739><c> will</c><00:47:20.039><c> finally</c><00:47:20.340><c> come</c><00:47:20.579><c> to</c><00:47:20.780><c> that</c><00:47:21.079><c> point</c>

00:47:25.460 --> 00:47:30.519
And<00:47:25.579><c> it's</c><00:47:25.719><c> worth</c><00:47:26.000><c> noting</c><00:47:26.619><c> that</c><00:47:27.340><c> there</c><00:47:27.619><c> is</c><00:47:28.039><c> tremendous</c><00:47:28.960><c> devastation,</c>

00:47:31.019 --> 00:47:34.380
tremendous<00:47:31.500><c> devastation</c><00:47:31.980><c> that</c><00:47:32.260><c> happens</c><00:47:32.539><c> to</c><00:47:32.739><c> Israel</c><00:47:33.099><c> in</c><00:47:33.360><c> that</c><00:47:33.599><c> day.</c>

00:47:34.619 --> 00:47:36.599
Two<00:47:34.880><c>-thirds</c><00:47:35.119><c> are</c><00:47:35.320><c> cut</c><00:47:35.559><c> off,</c><00:47:35.860><c> the</c><00:47:36.039><c> city</c><00:47:36.260><c> taken,</c>

the<00:47:36.739><c> women</c><00:47:37.000><c> ravaged,</c><00:47:38.280><c> a</c><00:47:38.380><c> holocaust</c><00:47:38.960><c> like</c><00:47:39.159><c> they</c><00:47:39.340><c> have</c><00:47:39.559><c> never</c><00:47:39.840><c> experienced</c>

00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:42.500
because<00:47:40.679><c> it's</c><00:47:40.960><c> happening</c><00:47:41.300><c> in</c><00:47:41.760><c> their</c><00:47:42.099><c> homeland.</c>

00:47:42.599 --> 00:47:45.619
There<00:47:42.760><c> is</c><00:47:43.079><c> no</c><00:47:43.719><c> place</c><00:47:44.219><c> to</c><00:47:44.480><c> go.</c>

00:47:46.579 --> 00:47:49.599
But<00:47:46.820><c> it</c><00:47:46.960><c> is</c><00:47:47.280><c> not</c><00:47:47.840><c> their</c><00:47:48.579><c> suffering</c>

00:47:50.360 --> 00:47:53.000
that<00:47:50.699><c> brings</c><00:47:51.000><c> about</c><00:47:51.639><c> their</c><00:47:52.039><c> conversion.</c>

00:47:55.079 --> 00:47:57.420
What<00:47:55.280><c> brings</c><00:47:55.579><c> about</c><00:47:55.920><c> their</c><00:47:56.199><c> conversion,</c>

00:47:57.940 --> 00:47:59.639
sorry<00:47:58.380><c> we're</c><00:47:58.579><c> a</c><00:47:58.699><c> little</c><00:47:58.820><c> behind</c><00:47:59.159><c> here,</c>

00:47:59.639 --> 00:48:07.599
is<00:48:00.800><c> the</c><00:48:02.519><c> suffering</c><00:48:03.079><c> of</c><00:48:04.599><c> the</c><00:48:04.760><c> messiah,</c><00:48:06.239><c> not</c><00:48:06.480><c> themselves.</c>

00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:09.719
So<00:48:08.000><c> it</c><00:48:08.059><c> isn't</c><00:48:08.579><c> their</c><00:48:09.079><c> suffering</c>

That<00:48:13.360><c> is</c><00:48:13.639><c> a</c><00:48:13.780><c> necessary</c><00:48:14.420><c> prerequisite.</c>

00:48:15.300 --> 00:48:16.780
But<00:48:15.420><c> their</c><00:48:15.639><c> conversion</c><00:48:16.079><c> comes</c>

00:48:16.780 --> 00:48:19.880
when<00:48:17.480><c> they</c><00:48:17.820><c> finally</c><00:48:18.239><c> recognize</c><00:48:19.139><c> their</c><00:48:19.519><c> messiah</c>

00:48:20.179 --> 00:48:22.519

00:48:22.960 --> 00:48:24.320
What<00:48:23.300><c> are</c><00:48:23.440><c> these</c><00:48:23.719><c> wounds?</c>

00:48:24.699 --> 00:48:27.239

00:48:27.239 --> 00:48:30.619
And<00:48:27.760><c> when</c><00:48:27.920><c> they</c><00:48:28.139><c> look</c><00:48:28.320><c> on</c><00:48:28.519><c> him</c><00:48:28.800><c> whom</c><00:48:28.980><c> they</c><00:48:29.239><c> have</c><00:48:29.500><c> pierced,</c>

00:48:30.639 --> 00:48:33.739

because<00:51:47.460><c> he</c><00:51:47.699><c> has</c><00:51:47.840><c> just</c><00:51:48.079><c> defeated</c><00:51:48.519><c> all</c><00:51:48.820><c> those</c><00:51:49.059><c> Christians.</c>

00:52:02.639 --> 00:52:05.139

00:54:05.559 --> 00:54:07.360
