00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:06.439
when<00:04:03.680><c> the</c><00:04:03.860><c> four</c><00:04:03.979><c> living</c><00:04:04.219><c> creatures</c><00:04:04.719><c> and</c><00:04:04.919><c> the</c><00:04:05.060><c> 24</c><00:04:05.479><c> elders</c><00:04:06.139><c> are</c>

00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:15.659

00:05:05.500 --> 00:05:06.439
Both<00:05:05.699><c> have</c><00:05:05.860><c> got</c><00:05:06.000><c> their</c><00:05:06.160><c> meanings.</c>

00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:10.360
Death<00:05:06.819><c> has</c><00:05:07.240><c> gone</c><00:05:07.620><c> for</c><00:05:08.240><c> those</c><00:05:08.500><c> who</c><00:05:08.759><c> belong</c><00:05:09.139><c> to</c><00:05:09.339><c> the</c><00:05:09.459><c> Lord</c><00:05:09.779><c> God</c>

00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:27.100

00:05:31.100 --> 00:05:34.480
It's<00:05:31.220><c> like</c><00:05:31.339><c> when</c><00:05:32.759><c> father</c><00:05:33.220><c> or</c><00:05:33.399><c> mother</c><00:05:33.600><c> take</c><00:05:33.839><c> the</c><00:05:33.939><c> little</c><00:05:34.139><c> child</c>

00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:41.040
The<00:05:37.540><c> child</c><00:05:37.779><c> stops</c><00:05:38.100><c> crying,</c><00:05:39.579><c> and</c><00:05:39.759><c> we</c><00:05:39.920><c> wipe</c><00:05:40.139><c> away</c><00:05:40.379><c> its</c><00:05:40.639><c> tears.</c>

In<00:09:10.960><c> the</c><00:09:11.120><c> days</c><00:09:11.259><c> of</c><00:09:11.399><c> which</c><00:09:11.500><c> we've</c><00:09:11.720><c> been</c><00:09:11.820><c> reading,</c><00:09:12.379><c> my</c><00:09:12.559><c> dear</c><00:09:12.779><c> brethren</c><00:09:13.039><c> and</c><00:09:13.259><c> sisters.</c>

00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:15.539
The<00:09:14.080><c> days</c><00:09:14.200><c> of</c><00:09:14.399><c> Samuel</c><00:09:14.779><c> and</c><00:09:14.960><c> so</c><00:09:15.220><c> on.</c>

00:09:16.019 --> 00:09:18.139
They<00:09:16.220><c> depended</c><00:09:16.539><c> on</c><00:09:16.720><c> their</c><00:09:16.980><c> cities.</c>

00:09:18.820 --> 00:09:20.440
As<00:09:18.940><c> in</c><00:09:19.080><c> that</c><00:09:19.240><c> city</c><00:09:19.480><c> of</c><00:09:19.720><c> Keylar,</c><00:09:20.080><c> you</c><00:09:20.220><c> remember.</c>

00:09:20.460 --> 00:09:22.159
It<00:09:20.559><c> was</c><00:09:20.700><c> the</c><00:09:20.919><c> gate</c><00:09:21.139><c> that</c><00:09:21.299><c> they</c><00:09:21.340><c> had</c><00:09:21.519><c> to</c><00:09:21.700><c> protect.</c>

00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:23.879
The<00:09:22.779><c> cities</c><00:09:22.940><c> were</c><00:09:23.100><c> made</c><00:09:23.419><c> strong.</c>

00:09:24.019 --> 00:09:25.460
Jerusalem<00:09:24.399><c> was</c><00:09:24.580><c> made</c><00:09:24.879><c> strong.</c>

00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:29.320
It's<00:09:26.059><c> been</c><00:09:26.340><c> besieged,</c><00:09:26.779><c> I</c><00:09:26.840><c> suppose</c><00:09:27.159><c> now,</c><00:09:27.960><c> almost</c><00:09:28.299><c> 30</c><00:09:28.700><c> times</c><00:09:29.139><c> in</c>

00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:30.080
its<00:09:29.480><c> history.</c>

00:09:30.539 --> 00:09:32.419
It<00:09:30.539><c> was</c><00:09:30.700><c> 27</c><00:09:31.200><c> some</c><00:09:31.500><c> while</c><00:09:31.679><c> ago.</c>

00:09:32.580 --> 00:09:35.879
So<00:09:32.700><c> perhaps</c><00:09:33.000><c> 30</c><00:09:33.360><c> by</c><00:09:33.820><c> the</c><00:09:34.019><c> time</c><00:09:34.240><c> of</c><00:09:34.440><c> Zechariah</c><00:09:34.860><c> chapter</c><00:09:35.139><c> 14.</c>

00:09:36.259 --> 00:09:38.480
They<00:09:36.419><c> used</c><00:09:36.519><c> to</c><00:09:36.539><c> have</c><00:09:36.720><c> double</c><00:09:37.100><c> walls.</c>

00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:40.539
In<00:09:38.679><c> Babylon</c><00:09:38.960><c> they</c><00:09:39.139><c> had</c><00:09:39.340><c> walls</c><00:09:39.679><c> around</c><00:09:40.100><c> which</c><00:09:40.279><c> they</c><00:09:40.419><c> could</c>

00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:47.179
Great<00:09:44.259><c> walls</c><00:09:44.620><c> which</c><00:09:44.799><c> were</c><00:09:44.960><c> difficult</c><00:09:45.559><c> to</c><00:09:46.679><c> surmount.</c>

00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:50.679
Took<00:09:47.519><c> great</c><00:09:48.039><c> difficulty</c><00:09:48.620><c> in</c><00:09:49.080><c> taking</c><00:09:49.460><c> a</c><00:09:49.639><c> city</c><00:09:49.840><c> of</c><00:09:50.039><c> that</c><00:09:50.279><c> kind.</c>

00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:52.200
That's<00:09:51.360><c> why</c><00:09:51.539><c> Masada.</c>

00:09:52.419 --> 00:09:54.440
You<00:09:52.580><c> remember</c><00:09:52.860><c> the</c><00:09:53.059><c> city</c><00:09:53.360><c> in</c><00:09:53.759><c> the</c><00:09:53.960><c> desert.</c>

00:09:54.940 --> 00:09:56.460
Where<00:09:55.320><c> the</c><00:09:55.559><c> king</c><00:09:55.720><c> had</c><00:09:55.860><c> made</c><00:09:56.019><c> his</c><00:09:56.240><c> place.</c>

00:09:56.500 --> 00:09:58.659
Down<00:09:56.799><c> where</c><00:09:56.980><c> the</c><00:09:57.120><c> Dead</c><00:09:57.279><c> Sea</c><00:09:57.440><c> Scrolls</c><00:09:57.820><c> are</c><00:09:57.960><c> in</c><00:09:58.100><c> that</c><00:09:58.259><c> area.</c>

00:09:58.980 --> 00:10:02.059
The<00:09:59.220><c> Romans</c><00:09:59.519><c> had</c><00:09:59.899><c> a</c><00:10:00.080><c> very</c><00:10:00.480><c> difficult</c><00:10:00.840><c> time</c><00:10:01.200><c> taking</c><00:10:01.480><c> that</c><00:10:01.700><c> city.</c>

00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:05.519
And<00:10:02.620><c> the</c><00:10:02.720><c> only</c><00:10:02.919><c> way</c><00:10:03.039><c> they</c><00:10:03.159><c> could</c><00:10:03.360><c> do</c><00:10:03.480><c> it</c><00:10:03.600><c> was</c><00:10:03.879><c> a</c><00:10:04.120><c> Roman</c><00:10:04.519><c> way.</c>

00:10:06.440 --> 00:10:08.940
When<00:10:06.620><c> they</c><00:10:06.820><c> decided</c><00:10:07.080><c> to</c><00:10:07.299><c> do</c><00:10:07.419><c> a</c><00:10:07.539><c> thing,</c><00:10:07.659><c> they</c><00:10:07.820><c> decided</c><00:10:08.139><c> to</c><00:10:08.360><c> do</c><00:10:08.500><c> it.</c>

00:10:09.419 --> 00:10:11.320
When<00:10:09.559><c> they</c><00:10:09.720><c> built</c><00:10:09.899><c> their</c><00:10:10.139><c> roads,</c><00:10:10.399><c> they</c><00:10:10.500><c> built</c><00:10:10.659><c> them</c><00:10:11.000><c> straight.</c>

00:10:11.460 --> 00:10:13.500
Whatever<00:10:11.720><c> was</c><00:10:11.899><c> in</c><00:10:12.039><c> the</c><00:10:12.179><c> way,</c><00:10:12.360><c> they</c><00:10:12.519><c> built</c><00:10:12.720><c> them</c><00:10:13.059><c> straight.</c>

00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:15.120
And<00:10:14.159><c> went</c><00:10:14.379><c> straight</c><00:10:14.639><c> at</c><00:10:14.840><c> it.</c>

00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:17.019
And<00:10:15.740><c> so</c><00:10:15.860><c> they</c><00:10:16.039><c> did</c><00:10:16.139><c> with</c><00:10:16.340><c> Masada.</c>

00:10:17.019 --> 00:10:21.179
They<00:10:17.320><c> decided</c><00:10:17.740><c> then</c><00:10:18.000><c> that</c><00:10:18.120><c> the</c><00:10:18.279><c> only</c><00:10:18.519><c> way</c><00:10:18.960><c> to</c><00:10:19.299><c> get</c><00:10:19.559><c> in</c><00:10:19.980><c> to</c><00:10:20.240><c> Masada</c><00:10:20.720><c> was</c>

00:10:23.779 --> 00:10:27.120
So<00:10:24.000><c> they</c><00:10:25.240><c> built</c><00:10:25.519><c> a</c><00:10:26.080><c> great</c><00:10:26.440><c> road.</c>

00:10:27.500 --> 00:10:30.480
What<00:10:27.659><c> was</c><00:10:27.919><c> really</c><00:10:28.320><c> a</c><00:10:28.559><c> rampart</c><00:10:29.080><c> against</c><00:10:29.379><c> the</c><00:10:29.580><c> city.</c>

00:10:31.059 --> 00:10:33.340
So<00:10:31.220><c> that</c><00:10:31.340><c> they</c><00:10:31.379><c> were</c><00:10:31.559><c> then</c><00:10:31.820><c> able,</c><00:10:32.220><c> as</c><00:10:32.500><c> that</c><00:10:32.659><c> was</c><00:10:32.940><c> completed.</c>

00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:35.360
And<00:10:33.740><c> it</c><00:10:33.840><c> must</c><00:10:33.980><c> have</c><00:10:34.100><c> been</c><00:10:34.200><c> difficult</c><00:10:34.480><c> towards</c><00:10:34.879><c> the</c><00:10:35.059><c> end</c><00:10:35.240><c> of</c>

00:10:36.519 --> 00:10:39.379
They<00:10:36.639><c> were</c><00:10:36.820><c> then</c><00:10:37.019><c> able</c><00:10:37.419><c> to</c><00:10:37.679><c> go</c><00:10:37.860><c> into</c><00:10:38.159><c> the</c><00:10:38.360><c> city.</c>

00:10:40.460 --> 00:10:42.759
Alexander<00:10:40.980><c> the</c><00:10:41.200><c> Great</c><00:10:41.320><c> did</c><00:10:41.519><c> exactly</c><00:10:41.779><c> the</c><00:10:41.980><c> same,</c><00:10:42.200><c> didn't</c><00:10:42.340><c> he?</c>

00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:45.559
When<00:10:43.179><c> he</c><00:10:43.519><c> finally</c><00:10:43.779><c> took</c><00:10:44.019><c> Tyre,</c><00:10:44.419><c> which</c><00:10:44.600><c> had</c><00:10:44.720><c> been</c><00:10:44.899><c> moved</c><00:10:45.240><c> from</c>

00:11:10.679 --> 00:11:13.379

Now<00:18:54.660><c> it</c><00:18:54.839><c> says,</c><00:18:55.519><c> open</c><00:18:55.539><c> ye</c><00:18:55.720><c> the</c><00:18:55.900><c> gates</c><00:18:56.259><c> that</c><00:18:56.640><c> the</c><00:18:56.839><c> righteous</c><00:18:57.200><c> nation</c>

00:18:57.599 --> 00:19:00.500
which<00:18:57.880><c> keepeth</c><00:18:58.220><c> the</c><00:18:58.480><c> truth</c><00:18:58.859><c> may</c><00:18:59.180><c> enter</c><00:18:59.579><c> in.</c>

00:19:00.740 --> 00:19:04.700
I'll<00:19:00.960><c> take</c><00:19:01.119><c> this</c><00:19:01.259><c> up,</c><00:19:01.440><c> God</c><00:19:01.599><c> willing,</c><00:19:03.599><c> in</c><00:19:03.720><c> our</c><00:19:03.880><c> last</c><00:19:04.220><c> morning</c>

00:19:04.700 --> 00:19:06.460
when<00:19:05.039><c> we</c><00:19:05.180><c> have</c><00:19:05.319><c> our</c><00:19:05.619><c> sixth</c><00:19:05.960><c> talk</c>

00:19:06.460 --> 00:19:09.440
about<00:19:07.079><c> opening</c><00:19:07.460><c> the</c><00:19:07.720><c> gates</c><00:19:08.099><c> and</c><00:19:08.660><c> entering</c><00:19:09.000><c> in.</c>

00:19:09.940 --> 00:19:11.880
I<00:19:09.980><c> want</c><00:19:10.119><c> to</c><00:19:10.319><c> take</c><00:19:10.539><c> now</c><00:19:10.940><c> an</c><00:19:11.319><c> unusual,</c>

00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:15.700
unusual<00:19:12.480><c> in</c><00:19:12.680><c> the</c><00:19:12.759><c> sense</c><00:19:12.960><c> that</c><00:19:13.299><c> it's</c><00:19:13.680><c> not</c><00:19:13.880><c> the</c><00:19:14.099><c> ultimate</c>

00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:17.960
opening<00:19:16.220><c> of</c><00:19:16.440><c> the</c><00:19:16.579><c> gates</c><00:19:16.839><c> to</c><00:19:17.099><c> enter</c><00:19:17.400><c> in,</c>

00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:20.480
but<00:19:18.359><c> it's</c><00:19:18.599><c> the</c><00:19:18.799><c> means</c><00:19:19.140><c> by</c><00:19:19.400><c> which</c><00:19:19.559><c> it</c><00:19:19.740><c> took</c><00:19:19.920><c> place.</c>

00:19:20.980 --> 00:19:24.059
You<00:19:21.019><c> might</c><00:19:21.220><c> like</c><00:19:21.420><c> to</c><00:19:21.579><c> come</c><00:19:21.720><c> to</c><00:19:21.940><c> Psalm</c><00:19:22.220><c> 118.</c>

00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:29.859
Psalm<00:19:24.539><c> 118.</c>

00:19:34.900 --> 00:19:37.220
This<00:19:35.000><c> is</c><00:19:35.359><c> a</c><00:19:35.660><c> messianic</c><00:19:36.619><c> psalm.</c>

00:19:37.220 --> 00:19:42.700
That<00:19:37.400><c> is</c><00:19:37.799><c> a</c><00:19:38.240><c> psalm</c><00:19:38.779><c> which</c><00:19:39.039><c> is</c><00:19:39.420><c> largely,</c><00:19:41.519><c> probably</c><00:19:42.000><c> wholly</c>

00:19:42.700 --> 00:19:45.319
to<00:19:43.220><c> do</c><00:19:43.359><c> with</c><00:19:43.559><c> the</c><00:19:43.660><c> law</c><00:19:43.819><c> of</c><00:19:43.960><c> Jesus</c><00:19:44.200><c> Christ.</c>

00:19:45.700 --> 00:19:47.920
It's<00:19:45.799><c> the</c><00:19:45.940><c> psalm</c><00:19:46.140><c> that</c><00:19:46.259><c> he</c><00:19:46.500><c> quoted,</c><00:19:46.960><c> so</c><00:19:47.099><c> we</c><00:19:47.240><c> know</c><00:19:47.460><c> that.</c>

00:19:48.140 --> 00:19:49.359
As<00:19:48.319><c> I</c><00:19:48.519><c> mentioned</c><00:19:48.740><c> the</c><00:19:48.900><c> other</c><00:19:49.099><c> day,</c>

00:19:49.599 --> 00:19:52.420
it's<00:19:49.720><c> the</c><00:19:49.960><c> psalm</c><00:19:51.059><c> that</c><00:19:51.299><c> the</c><00:19:51.519><c> people</c><00:19:51.900><c> quoted</c>

00:19:52.900 --> 00:19:55.319
when<00:19:53.380><c> Jesus</c><00:19:53.759><c> rode</c><00:19:54.019><c> the</c><00:19:54.319><c> ass</c><00:19:54.519><c> into</c><00:19:54.779><c> Jerusalem</c>

00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:56.900
and<00:19:55.480><c> they</c><00:19:55.740><c> cried</c><00:19:55.880><c> out</c><00:19:56.160><c> Hosanna,</c>

00:19:57.000 --> 00:19:58.380
Hosanna<00:19:57.420><c> to</c><00:19:57.599><c> the</c><00:19:57.700><c> son</c><00:19:57.839><c> of</c><00:19:58.079><c> David.</c>

00:19:58.740 --> 00:20:01.079
That<00:19:58.880><c> word</c><00:19:59.099><c> Hosanna</c><00:19:59.819><c> is</c><00:20:00.660><c> that,</c>

00:20:01.339 --> 00:20:03.619
those<00:20:01.579><c> two</c><00:20:01.839><c> words</c><00:20:02.059><c> at</c><00:20:02.299><c> the</c><00:20:02.319><c> beginning</c><00:20:02.559><c> of</c><00:20:02.759><c> verse</c><00:20:02.940><c> 25,</c>

00:20:03.619 --> 00:20:05.500
have<00:20:03.880><c> saved</c><00:20:04.240><c> now.</c>

00:20:06.180 --> 00:20:07.279
All<00:20:06.359><c> these</c><00:20:06.539><c> kind</c><00:20:06.700><c> of</c><00:20:06.759><c> modern</c><00:20:07.019><c> hymns</c>

00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:11.220
that<00:20:07.440><c> have</c><00:20:07.680><c> Hosanna</c><00:20:08.859><c> as</c><00:20:09.900><c> praise.</c>

00:20:11.299 --> 00:20:13.759
That's<00:20:11.640><c> not</c><00:20:11.920><c> its</c><00:20:12.339><c> original</c><00:20:12.839><c> meaning.</c>

00:20:13.900 --> 00:20:16.599
That's<00:20:14.259><c> just</c><00:20:14.599><c> an</c><00:20:15.539><c> appropriated</c><00:20:16.279><c> meaning.</c>

00:20:16.799 --> 00:20:18.220
The<00:20:16.920><c> real</c><00:20:17.099><c> meaning</c><00:20:17.359><c> is</c><00:20:17.599><c> save</c><00:20:17.940><c> now.</c>

00:20:18.220 --> 00:20:19.079
That's<00:20:18.420><c> what</c><00:20:18.519><c> it</c><00:20:18.720><c> is.</c>

00:20:19.420 --> 00:20:21.440
That's<00:20:19.980><c> what</c><00:20:20.119><c> they</c><00:20:20.259><c> were</c><00:20:20.440><c> calling</c><00:20:20.759><c> upon</c>

00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:24.119
the<00:20:22.099><c> Lord</c><00:20:22.400><c> Jesus</c><00:20:22.819><c> Christ</c><00:20:23.480><c> about</c>

00:20:24.119 --> 00:20:26.839
as<00:20:24.420><c> he</c><00:20:24.859><c> rode</c><00:20:25.200><c> toward</c><00:20:25.640><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:20:28.180 --> 00:20:30.579
The<00:20:28.480><c> mind</c><00:20:28.779><c> of</c><00:20:28.940><c> Jesus</c><00:20:29.359><c> on</c><00:20:29.940><c> that</c><00:20:30.160><c> journey</c>

00:20:30.579 --> 00:20:33.240
is<00:20:31.099><c> described</c><00:20:31.559><c> in</c><00:20:31.720><c> this</c><00:20:31.920><c> chapter.</c>

00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:35.740
Here<00:20:33.579><c> it</c><00:20:33.759><c> is</c><00:20:33.960><c> in</c><00:20:34.119><c> verse</c><00:20:34.299><c> 5.</c>

00:20:35.859 --> 00:20:37.779
I<00:20:35.859><c> called</c><00:20:36.200><c> upon</c><00:20:36.500><c> the</c><00:20:36.720><c> Lord</c><00:20:36.980><c> in</c><00:20:37.259><c> distress.</c>

00:20:37.900 --> 00:20:39.480
The<00:20:38.059><c> Lord</c><00:20:38.299><c> answered</c><00:20:38.740><c> me</c>

00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:42.259
and<00:20:39.880><c> set</c><00:20:40.099><c> me</c><00:20:40.400><c> in</c><00:20:40.519><c> a</c><00:20:40.720><c> large</c><00:20:41.059><c> place.</c>

00:20:43.240 --> 00:20:45.259
The<00:20:43.380><c> Lord</c><00:20:43.640><c> is</c><00:20:43.799><c> on</c><00:20:43.940><c> my</c><00:20:44.240><c> side.</c>

00:20:45.660 --> 00:20:47.299
I<00:20:45.859><c> will</c><00:20:46.059><c> not</c><00:20:46.319><c> fear.</c>

00:20:47.740 --> 00:20:50.299
What<00:20:48.039><c> can</c><00:20:48.460><c> man</c><00:20:48.779><c> do</c><00:20:49.000><c> unto</c><00:20:49.240><c> me?</c>

00:20:50.960 --> 00:20:53.819
Now<00:20:51.119><c> here's</c><00:20:51.319><c> the</c><00:20:51.460><c> Lord</c><00:20:51.619><c> before</c><00:20:52.140><c> his</c><00:20:52.539><c> death.</c>

00:20:53.900 --> 00:20:56.079
He's<00:20:54.480><c> become</c><00:20:54.720><c> established</c><00:20:55.279><c> in</c><00:20:55.480><c> his</c><00:20:55.720><c> mind</c>

00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:58.559
in<00:20:56.339><c> a</c><00:20:56.759><c> large</c><00:20:57.380><c> place.</c>

00:20:59.119 --> 00:21:00.440
He<00:20:59.640><c> doesn't</c><00:21:00.160><c> feel,</c>

00:21:00.460 --> 00:21:01.279
and<00:21:00.660><c> the</c><00:21:00.779><c> interesting</c><00:21:00.980><c> thing</c><00:21:01.180><c> is</c>

00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:02.920
when<00:21:01.380><c> you</c><00:21:01.480><c> read</c><00:21:01.640><c> Matthew,</c><00:21:02.079><c> Mark,</c><00:21:02.279><c> Luke</c><00:21:02.440><c> and</c><00:21:02.559><c> John,</c>

00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:05.220
you<00:21:03.279><c> don't</c><00:21:03.519><c> get</c><00:21:03.700><c> any</c><00:21:03.980><c> sense</c><00:21:04.460><c> of</c><00:21:04.799><c> Jesus</c>

00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:08.200
being<00:21:05.779><c> cramped</c><00:21:06.279><c> in</c><00:21:06.680><c> that</c><00:21:06.819><c> last</c><00:21:07.140><c> week,</c>

00:21:08.240 --> 00:21:11.079
as<00:21:08.319><c> though</c><00:21:08.500><c> somehow</c><00:21:08.920><c> he's</c><00:21:09.640><c> held</c><00:21:09.880><c> in</c><00:21:10.039><c> some</c><00:21:10.319><c> great</c><00:21:10.599><c> vice.</c>

00:21:11.319 --> 00:21:14.160
He's<00:21:11.559><c> the</c><00:21:11.700><c> only</c><00:21:12.019><c> free</c><00:21:12.319><c> man</c><00:21:12.940><c> during</c><00:21:13.420><c> that</c><00:21:13.599><c> last</c><00:21:13.920><c> week,</c>

00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:16.400
the<00:21:14.420><c> only</c><00:21:14.680><c> one</c><00:21:14.960><c> totally</c><00:21:15.400><c> free.</c>

00:21:17.359 --> 00:21:19.240
Once<00:21:17.640><c> he</c><00:21:17.859><c> has</c><00:21:18.140><c> emerged</c><00:21:18.460><c> from</c><00:21:18.680><c> Gethsemane,</c>

00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:21.299
he<00:21:19.680><c> is</c><00:21:19.900><c> the</c><00:21:20.160><c> master.</c>

00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:23.259
It<00:21:22.200><c> showed</c><00:21:22.319><c> in</c><00:21:22.480><c> his</c><00:21:22.759><c> face,</c>

00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:26.140
hence<00:21:23.599><c> the</c><00:21:23.859><c> soldiers</c><00:21:24.099><c> could</c><00:21:24.319><c> not</c><00:21:24.460><c> arrest</c><00:21:24.700><c> him</c><00:21:24.880><c> right</c><00:21:25.119><c> away.</c>

00:21:26.819 --> 00:21:28.319
But<00:21:27.259><c> wherever</c><00:21:27.700><c> he</c><00:21:27.880><c> went,</c>

00:21:28.799 --> 00:21:30.000
it<00:21:28.799><c> wasn't</c><00:21:29.039><c> Jesus</c><00:21:29.380><c> who</c><00:21:29.480><c> was</c><00:21:29.559><c> on</c><00:21:29.799><c> trial,</c>

00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:32.099
it<00:21:30.079><c> was</c><00:21:30.299><c> Pilate.</c>

00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:34.539
It<00:21:33.140><c> wasn't</c><00:21:33.359><c> Christ</c><00:21:33.720><c> who</c><00:21:33.819><c> was</c><00:21:33.880><c> being</c><00:21:34.140><c> accused,</c>

00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:36.859
it<00:21:34.640><c> was</c><00:21:34.859><c> the</c><00:21:34.980><c> chief</c><00:21:35.160><c> priests</c><00:21:35.460><c> and</c><00:21:35.640><c> the</c><00:21:35.799><c> elders.</c>

00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:39.480
And<00:21:37.500><c> all</c><00:21:37.700><c> are</c><00:21:37.839><c> guilty</c><00:21:38.059><c> before</c><00:21:38.420><c> God.</c>

00:21:39.920 --> 00:21:41.420
And<00:21:40.059><c> this</c><00:21:40.240><c> man</c><00:21:40.460><c> here,</c><00:21:40.740><c> Pilate,</c><00:21:41.240><c> says,</c>

00:21:41.579 --> 00:21:42.599
I<00:21:41.700><c> find</c><00:21:41.940><c> no</c><00:21:42.200><c> fault</c><00:21:42.380><c> in</c><00:21:42.519><c> him.</c>

00:21:42.619 --> 00:21:44.559
He<00:21:42.759><c> says</c><00:21:42.859><c> it</c><00:21:42.980><c> three</c><00:21:43.220><c> times.</c>

00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:46.380
Three<00:21:45.440><c> times.</c>

00:21:46.400 --> 00:21:49.480
This<00:21:46.619><c> prisoner,</c><00:21:47.380><c> the</c><00:21:47.440><c> Lord</c><00:21:47.640><c> Jesus</c><00:21:47.980><c> Christ.</c>

00:21:51.099 --> 00:21:51.700
Brethren<00:21:51.359><c> and</c><00:21:51.539><c> sisters,</c>

00:21:51.819 --> 00:21:53.900
we<00:21:52.099><c> don't</c><00:21:52.480><c> care</c><00:21:52.740><c> what</c><00:21:52.980><c> Pilate</c><00:21:53.400><c> says.</c>

00:21:53.900 --> 00:21:56.259
There<00:21:54.700><c> is</c><00:21:55.680><c> another</c><00:21:55.920><c> voice,</c>

00:21:56.539 --> 00:22:00.140
and<00:21:56.599><c> greater</c><00:21:56.819><c> than</c><00:21:57.079><c> Pilate's,</c>

00:22:00.500 --> 00:22:02.079
a<00:22:00.619><c> voice</c><00:22:00.779><c> from</c><00:22:00.980><c> heaven</c><00:22:01.180><c> saying,</c>

00:22:02.180 --> 00:22:03.700
I<00:22:02.279><c> find</c><00:22:02.720><c> no</c><00:22:03.019><c> fault</c><00:22:03.240><c> in</c><00:22:03.460><c> him.</c>

00:22:04.099 --> 00:22:05.200
This<00:22:04.259><c> is</c><00:22:04.400><c> my</c><00:22:04.539><c> beloved</c><00:22:04.839><c> son</c>

00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:06.539
in<00:22:05.400><c> whom</c><00:22:05.519><c> I</c><00:22:05.660><c> am</c><00:22:05.799><c> well</c><00:22:06.019><c> pleased.</c>

00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:08.140
Hear<00:22:07.160><c> him.</c>

00:22:10.099 --> 00:22:11.660
And<00:22:10.420><c> so,</c><00:22:10.900><c> in</c><00:22:11.059><c> this</c><00:22:11.240><c> chapter,</c>

00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:14.200
we<00:22:12.019><c> have</c><00:22:12.700><c> how</c><00:22:13.200><c> the</c><00:22:13.380><c> Lord</c><00:22:13.579><c> Jesus</c><00:22:13.880><c> Christ</c>

00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:17.240

00:22:18.680 --> 00:22:20.799
Do<00:22:18.920><c> you</c><00:22:19.000><c> notice</c><00:22:19.240><c> the</c><00:22:19.519><c> phrase</c>

verse<00:22:24.480><c> 6.</c>

00:22:26.660 --> 00:22:29.140
The<00:22:26.680><c> Lord</c><00:22:26.960><c> is</c><00:22:27.140><c> on</c><00:22:27.319><c> my</c><00:22:27.619><c> side.</c>

00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:31.960
You<00:22:30.839><c> know</c><00:22:31.000><c> the</c><00:22:31.579><c> inference.</c>

00:22:32.200 --> 00:22:34.059
Who's<00:22:32.460><c> on</c><00:22:32.599><c> yours</c><00:22:32.839><c> then?</c>

00:22:36.640 --> 00:22:38.640
I<00:22:36.660><c> used</c><00:22:36.819><c> to</c><00:22:36.900><c> tell</c><00:22:37.039><c> young</c><00:22:37.400><c> people</c><00:22:37.680><c> at</c><00:22:37.819><c> one</c><00:22:38.039><c> time,</c>

00:22:39.019 --> 00:22:40.420
quite<00:22:39.200><c> a</c><00:22:39.339><c> long</c><00:22:39.500><c> while</c><00:22:39.680><c> ago</c><00:22:39.940><c> now,</c>

00:22:40.779 --> 00:22:41.720
when<00:22:40.900><c> I</c><00:22:41.019><c> was</c><00:22:41.140><c> in</c><00:22:41.299><c> Nigeria,</c>

00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:43.460
I<00:22:41.960><c> remember</c><00:22:42.279><c> a</c><00:22:42.519><c> truck</c><00:22:42.720><c> went</c><00:22:42.960><c> by,</c>

00:22:43.940 --> 00:22:44.700
and<00:22:44.039><c> on</c><00:22:44.200><c> the</c><00:22:44.339><c> side</c><00:22:44.500><c> of</c><00:22:44.619><c> it,</c>

00:22:44.839 --> 00:22:48.059
there<00:22:44.839><c> was</c><00:22:45.000><c> painted</c><00:22:46.339><c> one,</c>

00:22:48.859 --> 00:22:52.980
O<00:22:49.299><c>-N</c><00:22:49.559><c>-E,</c><00:22:49.839><c> one</c><00:22:50.599><c> with</c><00:22:51.799><c> God</c>

00:22:53.460 --> 00:22:55.319
is<00:22:53.900><c> a</c><00:22:54.039><c> majority.</c>

00:22:58.680 --> 00:23:00.740
It<00:22:58.819><c> outvotes</c><00:22:59.279><c> anything</c><00:22:59.640><c> else.</c>

00:23:01.720 --> 00:23:03.759
And<00:23:01.900><c> these</c><00:23:02.119><c> words</c><00:23:02.980><c> are</c><00:23:03.420><c> picked</c><00:23:03.579><c> up</c>

00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:05.220
in<00:23:04.180><c> the</c><00:23:04.259><c> New</c><00:23:04.420><c> Testament,</c><00:23:04.859><c> aren't</c><00:23:04.980><c> they?</c>

00:23:05.579 --> 00:23:06.619
This<00:23:05.759><c> very</c><00:23:06.000><c> verse</c><00:23:06.220><c> is</c><00:23:06.359><c> picked</c><00:23:06.500><c> up</c>

00:23:06.619 --> 00:23:07.240

in<00:23:07.640><c> Hebrews</c><00:23:08.000><c> chapter</c><00:23:08.500><c> 13.</c>

00:23:09.599 --> 00:23:10.579
The<00:23:09.660><c> Lord</c><00:23:09.859><c> is</c><00:23:10.000><c> on</c><00:23:10.099><c> my</c><00:23:10.339><c> side</c>

00:23:10.579 --> 00:23:11.519
is<00:23:10.759><c> in</c><00:23:10.900><c> Hebrews</c><00:23:11.140><c> 13.</c>

00:23:11.619 --> 00:23:12.519
He's<00:23:11.660><c> on</c><00:23:11.799><c> our</c><00:23:11.980><c> side</c><00:23:12.319><c> now,</c>

00:23:12.660 --> 00:23:14.660
not<00:23:13.039><c> just</c><00:23:13.259><c> the</c><00:23:13.400><c> side</c><00:23:13.519><c> of</c><00:23:13.680><c> Christ.</c>

00:23:14.799 --> 00:23:16.240
It's<00:23:15.019><c> spoken</c><00:23:15.240><c> of</c><00:23:15.460><c> as</c><00:23:15.640><c> of</c><00:23:15.799><c> us.</c>

00:23:16.240 --> 00:23:18.299
When<00:23:16.759><c> I</c><00:23:16.960><c> quoted</c><00:23:17.119><c> yesterday,</c>

00:23:18.380 --> 00:23:19.740
I<00:23:18.519><c> will</c><00:23:18.700><c> never,</c><00:23:18.980><c> never</c><00:23:19.180><c> leave</c><00:23:19.519><c> thee,</c>

00:23:19.799 --> 00:23:21.339
nor<00:23:19.940><c> will</c><00:23:20.079><c> I</c><00:23:20.220><c> in</c><00:23:20.400><c> any</c><00:23:20.579><c> wise</c><00:23:20.779><c> forsake</c><00:23:21.200><c> thee.</c>

00:23:21.460 --> 00:23:22.539
It's<00:23:21.480><c> in</c><00:23:21.640><c> that</c><00:23:21.839><c> context.</c>

00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:25.359
The<00:23:23.039><c> Lord</c><00:23:23.279><c> is</c><00:23:23.480><c> on</c><00:23:23.680><c> my</c><00:23:23.940><c> side.</c>

00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:29.400
So<00:23:27.720><c> often</c><00:23:28.079><c> the</c><00:23:28.359><c> truth</c><00:23:28.579><c> is</c><00:23:28.980><c> preached</c>

00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:31.900
as<00:23:29.660><c> though</c><00:23:29.960><c> it</c><00:23:30.420><c> is</c><00:23:30.660><c> a</c><00:23:30.920><c> negative</c><00:23:31.319><c> thing,</c>

00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:33.380
as<00:23:32.400><c> though</c><00:23:32.519><c> what</c><00:23:32.680><c> God</c><00:23:32.859><c> is</c><00:23:33.099><c> doing</c>

00:23:33.380 --> 00:23:34.440
is<00:23:33.740><c> not</c><00:23:33.980><c> helping</c><00:23:34.259><c> us</c>

00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:35.180
with<00:23:34.519><c> the</c><00:23:34.680><c> Kingdom</c><00:23:34.819><c> of</c><00:23:35.000><c> God,</c>

00:23:35.420 --> 00:23:36.460
but<00:23:35.440><c> putting</c><00:23:35.720><c> hurdles</c><00:23:36.160><c> there,</c>

00:23:36.599 --> 00:23:38.480
restrictions<00:23:37.180><c> of</c><00:23:37.640><c> all</c><00:23:37.960><c> kinds.</c>

00:23:38.759 --> 00:23:40.019
He<00:23:38.960><c> wants</c><00:23:39.339><c> us</c><00:23:39.559><c> there,</c><00:23:39.880><c> brethren.</c>

00:23:40.240 --> 00:23:41.720
He<00:23:40.460><c> wants</c><00:23:40.680><c> us</c><00:23:40.880><c> more</c><00:23:41.059><c> than</c><00:23:41.220><c> any</c><00:23:41.519><c> brother</c>

00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:43.039
on<00:23:42.000><c> earth</c><00:23:42.140><c> wants</c><00:23:42.400><c> to</c><00:23:42.579><c> get</c><00:23:42.720><c> in.</c>

00:23:43.299 --> 00:23:45.099
He<00:23:43.480><c> wants</c><00:23:43.779><c> us</c><00:23:44.460><c> to</c><00:23:44.660><c> be</c><00:23:44.880><c> in.</c>

00:23:45.099 --> 00:23:48.380
He<00:23:45.539><c> gave</c><00:23:45.779><c> His</c><00:23:46.019><c> own</c><00:23:46.259><c> beloved</c><00:23:46.579><c> Son</c><00:23:46.859><c> for</c><00:23:47.119><c> it.</c>

00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:49.940
So<00:23:48.839><c> we</c><00:23:48.900><c> know</c><00:23:49.000><c> how</c><00:23:49.180><c> much</c><00:23:49.359><c> He</c><00:23:49.539><c> wants</c><00:23:49.759><c> us</c>

00:23:49.940 --> 00:23:50.880
to<00:23:50.019><c> get</c><00:23:50.119><c> into</c><00:23:50.339><c> the</c><00:23:50.480><c> Kingdom</c><00:23:50.700><c> of</c><00:23:50.839><c> God.</c>

00:23:50.920 --> 00:23:52.960
Let's<00:23:51.160><c> have</c><00:23:51.359><c> heart</c><00:23:51.599><c> then.</c>

00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:54.019
Let's<00:23:53.480><c> just</c><00:23:53.640><c> believe</c>

00:23:54.019 --> 00:23:55.700
what<00:23:54.200><c> the</c><00:23:54.380><c> Scripture</c><00:23:54.599><c> says.</c>

00:23:56.380 --> 00:23:57.900
This<00:23:56.579><c> verse</c><00:23:56.799><c> is</c><00:23:57.019><c> quoted</c><00:23:57.220><c> in</c><00:23:57.440><c> Romans</c><00:23:57.700><c> 8</c>

00:24:00.279 --> 00:24:02.299
If<00:24:00.500><c> God</c><00:24:00.799><c> be</c><00:24:01.099><c> for</c><00:24:01.200><c> us,</c>

00:24:02.339 --> 00:24:04.460
who<00:24:02.579><c> can</c><00:24:02.859><c> be</c><00:24:03.039><c> against</c><00:24:03.420><c> us?</c>

00:24:07.539 --> 00:24:10.160
God's<00:24:07.940><c> for</c><00:24:08.099><c> us,</c><00:24:08.339><c> not</c><00:24:08.460><c> against</c><00:24:08.819><c> us.</c>

00:24:10.339 --> 00:24:13.160
For<00:24:10.740><c> us,</c><00:24:11.319><c> not</c><00:24:11.480><c> against</c><00:24:11.920><c> us.</c>

00:24:13.819 --> 00:24:16.359
Jesus<00:24:14.299><c> Christ</c><00:24:14.779><c> is</c><00:24:15.119><c> appearing</c><00:24:15.559><c> in</c><00:24:15.839><c> Heaven</c>

for<00:24:17.259><c> you.</c>

00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:18.920
That's<00:24:18.259><c> what</c><00:24:18.359><c> it</c><00:24:18.539><c> says,</c>

00:24:19.099 --> 00:24:20.099
and<00:24:19.180><c> I</c><00:24:19.279><c> can</c><00:24:19.380><c> quote</c><00:24:19.480><c> all</c><00:24:19.720><c> the</c><00:24:19.920><c> other</c>

00:24:23.299 --> 00:24:25.019
We've<00:24:23.440><c> got</c><00:24:23.500><c> to</c><00:24:23.619><c> take</c><00:24:23.839><c> heart,</c>

00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:28.279
not<00:24:25.599><c> be</c><00:24:25.759><c> dispirited</c><00:24:27.000><c> in</c><00:24:27.640><c> any</c><00:24:27.920><c> way,</c>

00:24:31.839 --> 00:24:32.519
It<00:24:31.839><c> doesn't</c><00:24:32.119><c> matter.</c>

00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:36.259
Nothing<00:24:33.039><c> matters</c><00:24:33.579><c> if</c><00:24:34.000><c> God</c><00:24:34.400><c> is</c><00:24:34.779><c> on</c><00:24:34.980><c> your</c><00:24:35.279><c> side.</c>

00:24:37.339 --> 00:24:38.079
And<00:24:37.440><c> brethren</c><00:24:37.680><c> and</c><00:24:37.920><c> sisters,</c>

00:24:38.180 --> 00:24:40.759
we<00:24:38.339><c> must</c><00:24:38.960><c> believe</c><00:24:39.460><c> that.</c>

00:24:41.740 --> 00:24:43.809
We<00:24:42.279><c> must</c><00:24:42.579><c> believe</c><00:24:43.039><c> it.</c>

00:24:44.319 --> 00:24:45.519
Just<00:24:44.700><c> believe</c><00:24:45.240><c> it.</c>

00:24:45.559 --> 00:24:46.339
He<00:24:45.700><c> never</c><00:24:45.980><c> leaves</c><00:24:46.220><c> us.</c>

00:24:46.359 --> 00:24:47.880
He<00:24:46.440><c> doesn't</c><00:24:46.660><c> go</c><00:24:46.960><c> away</c><00:24:47.140><c> from</c><00:24:47.359><c> our</c><00:24:47.619><c> side.</c>

00:24:48.019 --> 00:24:50.960
He's<00:24:48.240><c> got</c><00:24:48.359><c> no</c><00:24:48.599><c> more</c><00:24:48.880><c> important</c><00:24:49.240><c> job</c><00:24:49.460><c> to</c><00:24:49.720><c> do.</c>

00:24:51.460 --> 00:24:52.720
Psalm<00:24:51.640><c> 63</c><00:24:52.099><c> says,</c>

00:24:53.039 --> 00:24:54.039
the<00:24:53.099><c> Lord</c><00:24:53.359><c> supports</c><00:24:53.839><c> me</c>

00:24:54.039 --> 00:24:55.700
with<00:24:54.160><c> His</c><00:24:54.339><c> right</c><00:24:54.680><c> hand.</c>

00:24:56.099 --> 00:24:58.160
God<00:24:56.299><c> hasn't</c><00:24:56.519><c> got</c><00:24:56.740><c> something</c><00:24:57.299><c> bigger</c><00:24:57.680><c> to</c><00:24:57.960><c> do</c>

00:24:58.160 --> 00:24:59.420
with<00:24:58.319><c> His</c><00:24:58.480><c> right</c><00:24:58.819><c> hand</c>

00:24:59.420 --> 00:25:02.299
than<00:25:00.500><c> to</c><00:25:00.960><c> support</c><00:25:01.299><c> us.</c>

00:25:02.759 --> 00:25:04.640
He<00:25:02.859><c> wants</c><00:25:03.079><c> to</c><00:25:03.299><c> know</c><00:25:03.539><c> that.</c>

00:25:05.559 --> 00:25:07.500
The<00:25:05.700><c> right</c><00:25:05.940><c> hand</c><00:25:06.079><c> is</c><00:25:06.279><c> Jesus,</c><00:25:06.640><c> of</c><00:25:06.920><c> course,</c>

00:25:07.500 --> 00:25:10.299
and<00:25:08.740><c> He</c><00:25:08.920><c> is</c><00:25:09.119><c> our</c><00:25:09.279><c> support.</c>

00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:12.079
Therefore,<00:25:11.559><c> there</c><00:25:11.700><c> is</c><00:25:11.880><c> nothing</c>

00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:13.680
greater<00:25:12.420><c> than</c><00:25:12.640><c> He.</c>

00:25:14.220 --> 00:25:16.220
And<00:25:14.339><c> so</c><00:25:14.420><c> in</c><00:25:14.599><c> Psalm</c><00:25:14.740><c> 118</c><00:25:15.380><c> then,</c>

00:25:16.339 --> 00:25:17.599
and<00:25:16.500><c> we</c><00:25:16.599><c> were</c><00:25:16.660><c> looking</c><00:25:16.880><c> for</c><00:25:17.180><c> now</c>

00:25:17.599 --> 00:25:19.160
this<00:25:17.859><c> matter</c><00:25:18.099><c> of</c><00:25:18.680><c> salvation</c>

00:25:19.160 --> 00:25:20.539
and<00:25:19.480><c> the</c><00:25:19.680><c> gate.</c>

00:25:21.599 --> 00:25:23.079
We<00:25:22.000><c> had</c><00:25:22.180><c> the</c><00:25:22.380><c> salvation</c><00:25:22.799><c> part</c>

00:25:23.079 --> 00:25:24.680
in<00:25:23.220><c> verse</c><00:25:23.460><c> 14.</c>

00:25:24.740 --> 00:25:26.180
We<00:25:25.420><c> had</c><00:25:25.579><c> it</c><00:25:25.759><c> yesterday.</c>

00:25:26.279 --> 00:25:28.259
This<00:25:26.420><c> is</c><00:25:26.680><c> Jesus</c><00:25:27.240><c> saying,</c>

00:25:28.440 --> 00:25:30.359
before<00:25:28.859><c> He</c><00:25:29.200><c> dies,</c>

00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:34.059
the<00:25:30.779><c> Lord</c><00:25:31.220><c> is</c><00:25:31.559><c> my</c><00:25:31.900><c> strength</c><00:25:32.440><c> and</c><00:25:32.880><c> song,</c>

00:25:34.319 --> 00:25:36.900
and<00:25:34.839><c> He</c><00:25:35.039><c> has</c><00:25:35.119><c> become</c><00:25:35.400><c> my</c><00:25:35.660><c> salvation.</c>

00:25:37.579 --> 00:25:38.680
This<00:25:37.880><c> cluster</c><00:25:38.180><c> of</c><00:25:38.440><c> Psalms</c>

00:25:38.680 --> 00:25:40.920
around<00:25:39.019><c> here</c><00:25:39.259><c> is</c><00:25:40.480><c> the</c><00:25:40.640><c> cluster</c>

00:25:40.920 --> 00:25:43.240
that's<00:25:41.359><c> sung</c><00:25:41.480><c> at</c><00:25:41.740><c> Passover</c><00:25:41.980><c> time.</c>

00:25:43.759 --> 00:25:44.900
You<00:25:43.920><c> remember</c><00:25:44.160><c> that</c><00:25:44.319><c> when</c><00:25:44.460><c> they</c><00:25:44.619><c> left</c>

00:25:44.900 --> 00:25:46.059
the<00:25:45.140><c> upper</c><00:25:45.420><c> room,</c>

00:25:46.559 --> 00:25:48.819
they<00:25:46.859><c> sang</c><00:25:47.220><c> a</c><00:25:47.440><c> hymn.</c>

00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:55.599
Jesus<00:25:51.720><c> sang</c><00:25:52.240><c> on</c><00:25:53.559><c> the</c><00:25:53.700><c> way</c><00:25:53.839><c> to</c><00:25:54.039><c> Gethsemane.</c>

00:25:57.480 --> 00:25:58.839
These<00:25:57.700><c> are</c><00:25:57.920><c> thoughts,</c><00:25:58.279><c> brethren</c><00:25:58.519><c> and</c><00:25:58.720><c> sisters,</c>

00:25:58.980 --> 00:26:00.740
that<00:25:59.039><c> ought</c><00:25:59.200><c> to</c><00:25:59.539><c> arrest</c><00:25:59.859><c> us.</c>

00:26:01.400 --> 00:26:01.900
You<00:26:01.480><c> know</c><00:26:01.539><c> what</c><00:26:01.640><c> it</c><00:26:01.720><c> says</c>

00:26:01.900 --> 00:26:03.940
in<00:26:02.079><c> 1</c><00:26:02.299><c> Corinthians</c><00:26:02.700><c> 11?</c>

00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:05.900
The<00:26:04.799><c> same</c><00:26:05.200><c> night</c><00:26:05.539><c> in</c><00:26:05.720><c> which</c>

00:26:05.900 --> 00:26:07.680
He<00:26:06.059><c> was</c><00:26:06.299><c> betrayed,</c>

00:26:07.859 --> 00:26:11.539
the<00:26:08.000><c> Lord</c><00:26:09.079><c> gave</c><00:26:10.240><c> thanks.</c>

00:26:14.940 --> 00:26:16.180
You<00:26:15.039><c> see,</c><00:26:15.279><c> you</c><00:26:15.480><c> can</c><00:26:15.759><c> transform</c>

00:26:16.180 --> 00:26:19.759
the<00:26:16.380><c> most</c><00:26:16.759><c> dismal</c><00:26:17.579><c> and</c><00:26:18.059><c> dark</c><00:26:18.339><c> of</c><00:26:18.559><c> situations</c>

00:26:19.779 --> 00:26:21.059
into<00:26:20.039><c> moments</c><00:26:20.359><c> of</c><00:26:20.599><c> victory.</c>

00:26:21.420 --> 00:26:22.599
That's<00:26:21.539><c> what</c><00:26:21.619><c> Paul</c><00:26:21.819><c> and</c><00:26:22.019><c> Silas</c><00:26:22.279><c> did</c>

00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:24.619
in<00:26:22.880><c> Philippi,</c><00:26:23.259><c> isn't</c><00:26:23.460><c> it?</c>

00:26:24.900 --> 00:26:25.599
When<00:26:25.079><c> they</c><00:26:25.180><c> were</c><00:26:25.319><c> beaten</c>

00:26:25.599 --> 00:26:27.259
and<00:26:25.759><c> there</c><00:26:25.920><c> they</c><00:26:26.079><c> were</c><00:26:26.539><c> in</c><00:26:26.799><c> the</c><00:26:26.960><c> prison.</c>

00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:28.839
In<00:26:27.920><c> our</c><00:26:28.180><c> version</c><00:26:28.420><c> it</c><00:26:28.539><c> says,</c>

00:26:29.140 --> 00:26:30.319
and<00:26:29.160><c> the</c><00:26:29.299><c> prisoners</c><00:26:29.559><c> heard</c><00:26:29.900><c> them.</c>

00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:33.539
That's<00:26:30.779><c> not</c><00:26:30.940><c> quite</c><00:26:31.200><c> strong</c><00:26:31.460><c> enough.</c>

00:26:33.579 --> 00:26:34.259
The<00:26:33.660><c> revised</c><00:26:33.859><c> version</c><00:26:34.059><c> says</c>

00:26:34.259 --> 00:26:35.960
the<00:26:34.460><c> prisoners</c><00:26:34.660><c> were</c><00:26:34.880><c> listening.</c>

00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:37.079
They<00:26:36.319><c> were</c><00:26:36.460><c> trying</c><00:26:36.660><c> to</c><00:26:36.799><c> work</c><00:26:36.960><c> out</c>

00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:39.180
what<00:26:37.220><c> it</c><00:26:37.440><c> was</c><00:26:37.640><c> that</c><00:26:37.759><c> was</c><00:26:37.900><c> being</c><00:26:38.220><c> sung.</c>

00:26:39.740 --> 00:26:41.099
What<00:26:39.960><c> is</c><00:26:40.119><c> it</c><00:26:40.220><c> that</c><00:26:40.319><c> can</c><00:26:40.539><c> bring</c><00:26:40.680><c> two</c><00:26:40.900><c> men</c>

00:26:41.099 --> 00:26:42.759
that<00:26:41.240><c> had</c><00:26:41.240><c> just</c><00:26:41.420><c> been</c><00:26:41.619><c> beaten</c>

00:26:43.519 --> 00:26:44.859

00:26:44.859 --> 00:26:46.779
and<00:26:45.380><c> now</c><00:26:45.619><c> have</c><00:26:45.720><c> got</c><00:26:45.819><c> their</c><00:26:46.059><c> feet</c><00:26:46.220><c> fastened,</c>

00:26:46.839 --> 00:26:49.000
stopped<00:26:46.980><c> and</c><00:26:47.160><c> can't</c><00:26:47.519><c> lean</c><00:26:47.640><c> against</c><00:26:47.920><c> the</c><00:26:48.180><c> wall?</c>

00:26:49.279 --> 00:26:50.400
What<00:26:49.460><c> is</c><00:26:49.619><c> it</c><00:26:49.720><c> that</c><00:26:49.819><c> makes</c><00:26:50.000><c> these</c><00:26:50.240><c> men</c>

00:26:53.059 --> 00:26:54.259
He<00:26:53.279><c> gives</c><00:26:53.480><c> midnight</c><00:26:53.900><c> songs</c>

00:26:56.200 --> 00:26:57.920
Songs<00:26:56.619><c> in</c><00:26:56.859><c> the</c><00:26:57.039><c> night.</c>

00:26:58.119 --> 00:27:00.920
This<00:26:58.680><c> is</c><00:26:58.819><c> what</c><00:26:58.859><c> our</c><00:26:59.079><c> Lord</c><00:26:59.660><c> God</c><00:27:00.599><c> does</c>

00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:02.119
and<00:27:01.079><c> our</c><00:27:01.220><c> Lord</c><00:27:01.440><c> Jesus</c><00:27:01.720><c> Christ</c>

00:27:02.119 --> 00:27:03.119
and<00:27:02.259><c> He</c><00:27:02.420><c> by</c><00:27:02.619><c> example</c>

00:27:03.119 --> 00:27:06.140
in<00:27:03.920><c> this</c><00:27:04.079><c> particular</c><00:27:04.500><c> chapter</c><00:27:04.920><c> then.</c>

00:27:06.359 --> 00:27:07.640
But<00:27:06.400><c> then</c><00:27:06.799><c> it</c><00:27:07.099><c> says,</c>

00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:10.359
remember<00:27:08.240><c> Jesus</c><00:27:08.599><c> is</c><00:27:08.839><c> quoting</c><00:27:09.059><c> this</c><00:27:09.339><c> chapter</c>

00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:13.079
and<00:27:11.240><c> it</c><00:27:11.559><c> is</c><00:27:11.680><c> being</c><00:27:11.940><c> quoted</c><00:27:12.279><c> at</c><00:27:12.839><c> Him</c>

00:27:13.079 --> 00:27:15.500
and<00:27:13.339><c> to</c><00:27:13.599><c> Him</c><00:27:14.180><c> and</c><00:27:14.579><c> of</c><00:27:14.920><c> Him</c>

00:27:15.500 --> 00:27:17.240
on<00:27:16.200><c> the</c><00:27:16.400><c> occasion</c><00:27:16.720><c> when</c><00:27:16.900><c> He</c><00:27:17.160><c> is</c>

00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:19.079
riding<00:27:17.519><c> up</c><00:27:17.759><c> to</c><00:27:17.920><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:27:19.539 --> 00:27:20.059
Now<00:27:19.640><c> just</c><00:27:19.880><c> think,</c>

00:27:20.099 --> 00:27:21.380
what<00:27:20.339><c> was</c><00:27:20.579><c> Jesus</c><00:27:20.960><c> thinking</c>

00:27:21.380 --> 00:27:24.119
as<00:27:21.660><c> He</c><00:27:22.039><c> entered</c><00:27:22.400><c> into</c><00:27:22.839><c> Jerusalem?</c>

00:27:24.519 --> 00:27:25.680
Was<00:27:24.640><c> He</c><00:27:24.779><c> thinking,</c>

00:27:26.099 --> 00:27:27.279
and<00:27:26.319><c> He</c><00:27:26.400><c> must</c><00:27:26.619><c> have</c><00:27:26.740><c> thought</c><00:27:26.960><c> this</c>

00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:29.720
because<00:27:27.619><c> He</c><00:27:28.059><c> did</c><00:27:28.980><c> contemplate</c>

00:27:29.720 --> 00:27:31.400
the<00:27:29.980><c> glory</c><00:27:30.259><c> that</c><00:27:30.440><c> should</c><00:27:30.619><c> be</c>

00:27:31.400 --> 00:27:33.859
that<00:27:31.720><c> one</c><00:27:31.940><c> day</c><00:27:32.359><c> I</c><00:27:33.440><c> will</c><00:27:33.640><c> ride</c>

00:27:33.859 --> 00:27:36.180
to<00:27:34.059><c> this</c><00:27:34.220><c> city</c><00:27:34.480><c> to</c><00:27:34.640><c> be</c><00:27:34.799><c> king?</c>

00:27:37.140 --> 00:27:38.160
Surely.

00:27:40.279 --> 00:27:43.160
But<00:27:40.799><c> He</c><00:27:40.920><c> was</c><00:27:41.140><c> riding</c><00:27:41.440><c> there</c><00:27:41.680><c> to</c><00:27:41.799><c> be</c><00:27:41.920><c> king.</c>

00:27:44.779 --> 00:27:47.380
He<00:27:45.000><c> was</c><00:27:45.299><c> riding</c><00:27:45.680><c> there</c><00:27:45.940><c> to</c><00:27:46.059><c> be</c><00:27:46.200><c> king.</c>

00:27:48.019 --> 00:27:48.799
We<00:27:48.099><c> sometimes</c><00:27:48.380><c> have</c><00:27:48.539><c> pictures</c>

00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:50.480
of<00:27:48.920><c> Jesus</c><00:27:49.240><c> on</c><00:27:49.420><c> the</c><00:27:49.640><c> cross</c>

00:27:51.140 --> 00:27:53.359
painted<00:27:51.660><c> for</c><00:27:51.920><c> us</c><00:27:52.160><c> as</c><00:27:52.380><c> being</c>

00:27:53.359 --> 00:27:55.579
one<00:27:53.799><c> of</c><00:27:54.160><c> total</c><00:27:54.680><c> abjection,</c>

00:27:55.579 --> 00:27:58.720
rejection<00:27:56.240><c> and</c><00:27:56.779><c> desolation.</c>

00:27:58.940 --> 00:28:01.579
The<00:27:59.099><c> rejection</c><00:27:59.799><c> of</c><00:28:00.140><c> a</c><00:28:00.259><c> human</c><00:28:00.539><c> body.</c>

00:28:02.140 --> 00:28:03.859
I<00:28:02.240><c> believe</c><00:28:02.500><c> there</c><00:28:03.019><c> is</c><00:28:03.240><c> nothing</c><00:28:03.539><c> further</c>

00:28:04.200 --> 00:28:06.119
from<00:28:04.420><c> the</c><00:28:04.660><c> truth</c><00:28:04.859><c> than</c><00:28:05.140><c> that.</c>

00:28:06.920 --> 00:28:08.299
He<00:28:07.019><c> was</c><00:28:07.259><c> king.</c>

00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:10.240
He<00:28:09.059><c> was</c><00:28:09.279><c> king</c><00:28:09.559><c> of</c><00:28:09.799><c> righteousness.</c>

00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:13.279
Hebrews<00:28:10.960><c> 7</c><00:28:11.339><c> says</c><00:28:11.740><c> that</c><00:28:11.980><c> was</c><00:28:12.220><c> victory.</c>

00:28:13.660 --> 00:28:15.299
That<00:28:13.720><c> was</c><00:28:14.019><c> sin's</c><00:28:14.619><c> last</c><00:28:14.759><c> gasp,</c>

00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:18.200
not<00:28:15.640><c> Christ's</c><00:28:16.680><c> last</c><00:28:16.859><c> gasp.</c>

00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:20.880
Christ<00:28:18.839><c> didn't</c><00:28:19.119><c> gasp</c><00:28:19.480><c> Himself</c><00:28:19.779><c> to</c><00:28:20.019><c> death.</c>

00:28:21.180 --> 00:28:22.400
In<00:28:21.400><c> all</c><00:28:21.660><c> the</c><00:28:21.880><c> records</c>

00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:24.700
He<00:28:23.059><c> gave</c><00:28:23.359><c> Himself</c><00:28:23.940><c> to</c><00:28:24.299><c> die.</c>

00:28:24.700 --> 00:28:26.019
He<00:28:25.480><c> took</c><00:28:25.680><c> His</c><00:28:25.920><c> life.</c>

00:28:26.019 --> 00:28:27.299
It<00:28:26.079><c> doesn't</c><00:28:26.299><c> just</c><00:28:26.519><c> say</c><00:28:26.700><c> Jesus</c><00:28:26.980><c> died.</c>

00:28:27.380 --> 00:28:29.359
Anywhere<00:28:27.779><c> in</c><00:28:27.900><c> the</c><00:28:28.019><c> Gospel</c><00:28:28.240><c> records.</c>

00:28:30.980 --> 00:28:33.019
His<00:28:31.059><c> last</c><00:28:31.460><c> breath</c><00:28:31.700><c> He</c><00:28:31.960><c> saved.</c>

00:28:33.900 --> 00:28:36.480
Into<00:28:33.940><c> Thy</c><00:28:34.200><c> hands</c><00:28:34.539><c> I</c><00:28:34.799><c> commit</c><00:28:35.000><c> my</c><00:28:35.299><c> spirit.</c>

00:28:37.460 --> 00:28:38.859
And<00:28:37.619><c> then</c><00:28:37.720><c> He</c><00:28:37.900><c> died.</c>

00:28:39.200 --> 00:28:40.460
Right<00:28:39.500><c> to</c><00:28:39.700><c> the</c><00:28:39.779><c> very</c><00:28:39.980><c> end.</c>

00:28:40.779 --> 00:28:42.779
Oh,<00:28:41.039><c> so</c><00:28:41.240><c> yes</c><00:28:41.400><c> there</c><00:28:41.559><c> was</c><00:28:41.839><c> a</c><00:28:41.980><c> rejection</c><00:28:42.299><c> of</c><00:28:42.599><c> sin</c>

00:28:42.779 --> 00:28:45.440
and<00:28:43.200><c> all</c><00:28:43.500><c> the</c><00:28:43.700><c> impulses</c><00:28:44.039><c> of</c><00:28:44.240><c> our</c><00:28:44.420><c> nature.</c>

00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:48.339
But<00:28:45.819><c> Christ</c><00:28:46.059><c> was</c><00:28:46.319><c> king</c><00:28:46.720><c> in</c><00:28:47.140><c> His</c><00:28:47.440><c> body.</c>

00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:50.299
There<00:28:49.180><c> was</c><00:28:49.240><c> no</c><00:28:49.420><c> body</c><00:28:49.700><c> despised.</c>

00:28:50.299 --> 00:28:52.200
He<00:28:50.380><c> was</c><00:28:50.599><c> king</c><00:28:50.839><c> in</c><00:28:51.039><c> it.</c>

00:28:53.079 --> 00:28:54.900
And<00:28:53.519><c> so</c><00:28:53.839><c> much</c><00:28:54.079><c> so</c><00:28:54.339><c> that</c><00:28:54.480><c> God</c><00:28:54.680><c> said,</c>

00:28:55.019 --> 00:28:56.740
and<00:28:55.099><c> it</c><00:28:55.240><c> will</c><00:28:55.460><c> not</c><00:28:55.720><c> corrupt.</c>

00:28:57.799 --> 00:28:59.519
And<00:28:57.980><c> so</c><00:28:58.140><c> much</c><00:28:58.359><c> so</c><00:28:58.619><c> that</c><00:28:58.839><c> Jesus</c><00:28:59.200><c> said,</c>

00:28:59.619 --> 00:29:02.400
this<00:28:59.700><c> is</c><00:28:59.900><c> my</c><00:29:00.039><c> body</c><00:29:00.299><c> which</c><00:29:00.480><c> is</c><00:29:00.680><c> given</c><00:29:00.859><c> for</c><00:29:01.099><c> you.</c>

00:29:04.220 --> 00:29:05.140
One<00:29:04.380><c> in</c><00:29:04.480><c> which</c><00:29:04.579><c> we</c><00:29:04.920><c> join,</c>

00:29:05.160 --> 00:29:06.180
in<00:29:05.259><c> which</c><00:29:05.380><c> there</c><00:29:05.539><c> was</c><00:29:05.680><c> victory.</c>

00:29:06.440 --> 00:29:07.700
Oh<00:29:06.619><c> truly</c><00:29:06.779><c> it</c><00:29:06.900><c> was</c><00:29:07.059><c> like</c><00:29:07.339><c> ours.</c>

00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:10.599
And<00:29:08.259><c> with</c><00:29:08.319><c> all</c><00:29:08.599><c> those</c><00:29:08.799><c> motions</c><00:29:09.279><c> of</c><00:29:09.779><c> sin</c><00:29:09.980><c> within</c><00:29:10.279><c> it</c>

00:29:10.599 --> 00:29:12.640
that<00:29:11.019><c> come</c><00:29:11.319><c> by</c><00:29:11.660><c> being</c><00:29:11.980><c> sons</c><00:29:12.200><c> of</c><00:29:12.420><c> Adam.</c>

00:29:12.779 --> 00:29:13.680
Of<00:29:13.039><c> course</c><00:29:13.220><c> it</c><00:29:13.440><c> was.</c>

00:29:13.900 --> 00:29:15.740
But<00:29:14.039><c> it</c><00:29:14.119><c> was</c><00:29:14.319><c> the</c><00:29:14.400><c> first</c><00:29:14.720><c> time,</c>

00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:18.000

00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:20.960
that<00:29:18.680><c> sin</c><00:29:18.980><c> had</c><00:29:19.160><c> been</c><00:29:19.440><c> mastered</c><00:29:19.859><c> in</c><00:29:20.079><c> its</c><00:29:20.240><c> own</c><00:29:20.440><c> house.</c>

Another<00:29:21.920><c> master</c><00:29:22.380><c> had</c><00:29:22.579><c> entered</c><00:29:22.779><c> in.</c>

00:29:24.059 --> 00:29:26.039
And<00:29:24.099><c> it</c><00:29:24.140><c> was</c><00:29:24.460><c> sin</c><00:29:24.819><c> that</c><00:29:25.059><c> was</c><00:29:25.279><c> now</c><00:29:25.599><c> bound</c>

00:29:31.180 --> 00:29:32.700
It<00:29:31.240><c> was</c><00:29:31.480><c> sin</c><00:29:31.900><c> that</c><00:29:32.240><c> died.</c>

00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:34.440
It<00:29:33.440><c> finished.</c>

00:29:35.660 --> 00:29:37.619
There<00:29:35.819><c> was</c><00:29:35.960><c> no</c><00:29:36.259><c> way</c><00:29:36.539><c> now</c><00:29:36.859><c> in</c><00:29:36.980><c> which</c><00:29:37.240><c> ever</c>

00:29:39.759 --> 00:29:41.059
So<00:29:39.880><c> when</c><00:29:40.039><c> He</c><00:29:40.200><c> rides</c><00:29:40.539><c> to</c><00:29:40.819><c> Zion,</c>

00:29:43.200 --> 00:29:43.960
One<00:29:43.359><c> would</c><00:29:43.619><c> think,</c>

00:29:44.019 --> 00:29:45.819
and<00:29:44.279><c> we</c><00:29:44.420><c> mustn't</c><00:29:44.599><c> presume</c><00:29:44.980><c> about</c><00:29:45.279><c> what</c>

00:29:45.819 --> 00:29:47.140
our<00:29:46.079><c> Lord</c><00:29:46.519><c> thought.</c>

00:29:47.140 --> 00:29:50.380
Or<00:29:48.339><c> put</c><00:29:48.640><c> ourselves</c><00:29:49.039><c> in</c><00:29:49.160><c> His</c><00:29:49.460><c> place.</c>

00:29:56.559 --> 00:29:58.380
It's<00:29:56.720><c> just</c><00:29:56.960><c> that</c><00:29:57.720><c> He</c><00:29:58.079><c> knows</c>

00:29:58.759 --> 00:30:01.839
that<00:29:59.119><c> this</c><00:29:59.460><c> is</c><00:29:59.740><c> the</c><00:29:59.859><c> last</c><00:30:00.240><c> week</c><00:30:00.460><c> of</c><00:30:00.640><c> His</c><00:30:00.819><c> life.</c>

00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:05.359
And<00:30:03.299><c> all</c><00:30:03.480><c> these</c><00:30:03.680><c> people</c><00:30:03.980><c> that</c><00:30:04.220><c> are</c><00:30:04.400><c> crying,</c>

00:30:10.539 --> 00:30:12.099
Crucify<00:30:11.140><c> Him.</c>

00:30:12.500 --> 00:30:15.920
They'll<00:30:12.640><c> be</c><00:30:12.759><c> urged</c><00:30:13.079><c> on</c><00:30:13.380><c> by</c><00:30:14.799><c> evil,</c>

00:30:17.420 --> 00:30:19.339
malevolent,<00:30:18.019><c> Machiavellian</c><00:30:18.619><c> men</c>

00:30:19.339 --> 00:30:22.599
who<00:30:19.920><c> say</c><00:30:20.099><c> we</c><00:30:20.240><c> have</c><00:30:20.400><c> no</c><00:30:20.619><c> king</c><00:30:20.940><c> but</c><00:30:21.240><c> Caesar,</c>

00:30:23.500 --> 00:30:26.380
whom<00:30:23.599><c> they</c><00:30:24.079><c> despised</c><00:30:24.720><c> in</c><00:30:24.920><c> their</c><00:30:25.220><c> hearts</c>

00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:29.400
and<00:30:27.680><c> rejected</c><00:30:28.059><c> the</c><00:30:28.319><c> Christ.</c>

00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:32.579
What<00:30:30.559><c> then</c><00:30:30.720><c> did</c><00:30:30.900><c> Christ</c><00:30:31.279><c> think?</c>

00:30:33.859 --> 00:30:35.140
As<00:30:34.039><c> He</c><00:30:34.119><c> came</c><00:30:34.299><c> to</c><00:30:34.460><c> the</c><00:30:34.599><c> city,</c>

00:30:35.500 --> 00:30:36.819
I<00:30:35.740><c> think</c><00:30:35.900><c> these</c><00:30:36.160><c> were</c><00:30:36.359><c> the</c><00:30:36.460><c> words,</c>

00:30:36.880 --> 00:30:38.539
verse<00:30:37.099><c> 19.</c>

00:30:41.140 --> 00:30:43.640
Open<00:30:41.619><c> to</c><00:30:41.779><c> me</c><00:30:41.900><c> the</c><00:30:42.079><c> gates</c><00:30:42.240><c> of</c><00:30:42.559><c> righteousness.</c>

00:30:45.380 --> 00:30:47.380
I<00:30:45.480><c> will</c><00:30:45.599><c> go</c><00:30:45.799><c> into</c><00:30:46.019><c> them</c>

00:30:47.880 --> 00:30:50.240
and<00:30:48.359><c> I</c><00:30:48.539><c> will</c><00:30:48.720><c> praise</c><00:30:48.960><c> the</c><00:30:49.160><c> Lord.</c>

00:30:51.819 --> 00:30:53.259
So<00:30:52.000><c> Christ</c><00:30:52.220><c> knew</c><00:30:52.480><c> that</c><00:30:52.640><c> He</c><00:30:52.720><c> was</c><00:30:52.859><c> going</c><00:30:53.019><c> to</c>

00:30:53.259 --> 00:30:54.240

00:30:57.180 --> 00:30:58.099
But<00:30:57.319><c> to</c><00:30:57.460><c> Him</c><00:30:57.680><c> there</c><00:30:57.839><c> would</c><00:30:58.000><c> be</c>

00:30:58.099 --> 00:30:59.240
gates<00:30:58.339><c> of</c><00:30:58.680><c> righteousness</c>

00:30:59.240 --> 00:31:02.119
and<00:31:00.160><c> He</c><00:31:00.339><c> would</c><00:31:00.579><c> praise</c><00:31:00.920><c> the</c><00:31:01.140><c> Lord.</c>

00:31:02.460 --> 00:31:04.740
God<00:31:02.740><c> was</c><00:31:03.019><c> never</c><00:31:03.299><c> more</c><00:31:03.579><c> greatly</c><00:31:04.019><c> praised</c>

00:31:07.859 --> 00:31:09.460
It<00:31:08.380><c> was</c><00:31:08.579><c> there</c><00:31:08.880><c> that</c><00:31:09.039><c> the</c><00:31:09.220><c> thorns</c>

00:31:09.460 --> 00:31:11.380
and<00:31:09.660><c> the</c><00:31:09.819><c> thistles</c><00:31:10.140><c> were</c><00:31:10.380><c> dead.</c>

00:31:11.579 --> 00:31:12.740
On<00:31:11.680><c> the</c><00:31:11.859><c> brow</c><00:31:11.980><c> of</c><00:31:12.240><c> Christ</c>

00:31:12.740 --> 00:31:15.160
He<00:31:13.299><c> took</c><00:31:13.480><c> away</c><00:31:13.740><c> the</c><00:31:14.000><c> curse.</c>

00:31:15.819 --> 00:31:17.460
All<00:31:16.039><c> was</c><00:31:16.299><c> finished.</c>

00:31:17.920 --> 00:31:19.940
Sin<00:31:18.039><c> was</c><00:31:18.299><c> rendered</c><00:31:18.640><c> immobile.</c>

00:31:20.400 --> 00:31:21.960
All<00:31:20.680><c> was</c><00:31:20.980><c> gone.</c>

00:31:22.319 --> 00:31:24.299
And<00:31:22.480><c> Christ</c><00:31:22.799><c> was</c><00:31:23.019><c> victorious.</c>

00:31:24.759 --> 00:31:26.519
And<00:31:24.900><c> in</c><00:31:25.019><c> this</c><00:31:25.339><c> psalm</c><00:31:25.779><c> then,</c>

00:31:26.859 --> 00:31:27.839
and<00:31:27.059><c> this</c><00:31:27.160><c> is</c><00:31:27.259><c> what</c><00:31:27.400><c> it</c><00:31:27.619><c> is,</c>

00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:29.740
you<00:31:28.119><c> remember</c><00:31:28.279><c> when</c><00:31:29.119><c> Isaac</c>

00:31:29.740 --> 00:31:31.480
was<00:31:30.019><c> with</c><00:31:30.380><c> Abraham,</c>

00:31:31.920 --> 00:31:33.759
that<00:31:32.019><c> there</c><00:31:32.180><c> was</c><00:31:32.279><c> no</c><00:31:32.500><c> resistance</c><00:31:33.000><c> in</c><00:31:33.279><c> Isaac.</c>

00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:36.319
He<00:31:34.079><c> wasn't</c><00:31:34.259><c> being</c><00:31:34.559><c> deceived</c><00:31:35.000><c> in</c><00:31:35.220><c> any</c><00:31:35.420><c> way.</c>

00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:39.000
He<00:31:36.880><c> wasn't</c><00:31:37.000><c> just</c><00:31:37.240><c> a</c><00:31:37.380><c> stripling</c><00:31:37.599><c> of</c><00:31:37.819><c> a</c><00:31:38.000><c> boy.</c>

00:31:39.599 --> 00:31:42.039
He<00:31:39.680><c> was</c><00:31:40.079><c> of</c><00:31:40.440><c> mature</c><00:31:40.839><c> mind.</c>

00:31:42.579 --> 00:31:43.740
He<00:31:42.680><c> could</c><00:31:42.859><c> have</c><00:31:43.000><c> picked</c><00:31:43.099><c> his</c><00:31:43.299><c> father</c><00:31:43.519><c> up</c>

00:31:43.740 --> 00:31:45.599
and<00:31:43.880><c> thrown</c><00:31:44.039><c> him</c><00:31:44.240><c> away</c><00:31:44.440><c> if</c><00:31:44.559><c> he</c><00:31:44.680><c> wanted.</c>

00:31:47.799 --> 00:31:50.180
When<00:31:48.279><c> He</c><00:31:48.660><c> comes</c><00:31:48.859><c> to</c><00:31:49.019><c> the</c><00:31:49.220><c> altar,</c>

00:31:50.880 --> 00:31:53.220
He<00:31:51.019><c> allows</c><00:31:51.259><c> Himself</c><00:31:51.599><c> to</c><00:31:51.799><c> be</c><00:31:52.039><c> bound.</c>

00:31:54.000 --> 00:31:56.099
And<00:31:54.079><c> as</c><00:31:54.240><c> a</c><00:31:54.400><c> sheep</c><00:31:54.599><c> before</c><00:31:55.019><c> Asherah</c><00:31:55.480><c> is</c><00:31:55.640><c> dumb,</c>

00:31:56.380 --> 00:31:58.640
so<00:31:56.700><c> He</c><00:31:56.940><c> opened</c><00:31:57.220><c> not</c><00:31:57.400><c> His</c><00:31:57.579><c> mouth.</c>

00:31:58.799 --> 00:32:00.660
Isaac<00:31:59.039><c> was</c><00:31:59.299><c> silent.</c>

00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:03.559
There<00:32:01.480><c> is</c><00:32:01.559><c> something</c><00:32:01.819><c> wonderful</c><00:32:02.180><c> about</c><00:32:02.440><c> Isaac.</c>

00:32:04.700 --> 00:32:06.559
A<00:32:05.180><c> man</c><00:32:05.579><c> who</c><00:32:05.740><c> must</c><00:32:05.920><c> have</c><00:32:06.099><c> carried</c><00:32:06.319><c> this</c>

00:32:06.559 --> 00:32:08.000
in<00:32:06.619><c> his</c><00:32:06.900><c> heart</c><00:32:07.200><c> ever</c><00:32:07.559><c> afterwards.</c>

00:32:08.140 --> 00:32:09.940
And<00:32:08.180><c> God</c><00:32:08.319><c> didn't</c><00:32:08.539><c> forsake</c><00:32:09.019><c> him.</c>

00:32:10.380 --> 00:32:12.400
Because<00:32:10.819><c> at</c><00:32:11.339><c> the</c><00:32:11.420><c> very,</c><00:32:11.640><c> very</c><00:32:11.880><c> moment</c>

00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:14.779
when<00:32:12.619><c> his</c><00:32:12.819><c> father</c><00:32:13.039><c> has</c><00:32:13.220><c> got</c><00:32:13.339><c> the</c><00:32:13.480><c> knife</c><00:32:13.660><c> in</c><00:32:13.859><c> the</c><00:32:14.039><c> hand,</c>

00:32:15.000 --> 00:32:15.940
the<00:32:15.160><c> angel</c><00:32:15.500><c> speaks,</c>

00:32:15.980 --> 00:32:17.960
and<00:32:16.160><c> Isaac</c><00:32:16.480><c> hears</c><00:32:16.700><c> the</c><00:32:16.980><c> angel.</c>

00:32:18.140 --> 00:32:20.160
Lay<00:32:18.259><c> not</c><00:32:18.460><c> thy</c><00:32:18.599><c> hand</c><00:32:18.799><c> upon</c><00:32:18.980><c> the</c><00:32:19.240><c> lad,</c>

00:32:21.140 --> 00:32:25.160
for<00:32:21.400><c> now</c><00:32:21.880><c> I</c><00:32:22.119><c> know</c><00:32:22.799><c> that</c><00:32:23.400><c> thou</c><00:32:23.599><c> fearest</c><00:32:24.119><c> God.</c>

00:32:25.740 --> 00:32:28.599
And<00:32:25.940><c> so</c><00:32:26.019><c> with</c><00:32:26.240><c> Christ,</c><00:32:26.920><c> here</c><00:32:27.019><c> it</c><00:32:27.220><c> is,</c><00:32:27.559><c> look.</c>

00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:30.339
Verse<00:32:28.960><c> 27.</c>

00:32:31.400 --> 00:32:33.680
God<00:32:32.000><c> is</c><00:32:32.180><c> the</c><00:32:32.359><c> Lord,</c>

00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:36.400
which<00:32:33.920><c> hath</c><00:32:34.200><c> showed</c><00:32:34.359><c> us</c><00:32:34.640><c> light.</c>

00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:40.200
Bind<00:32:37.799><c> the</c><00:32:38.140><c> sacrifice</c><00:32:38.720><c> with</c><00:32:39.039><c> cords,</c>

00:32:41.220 --> 00:32:43.099
even<00:32:41.519><c> unto</c><00:32:41.740><c> the</c><00:32:42.000><c> horns</c><00:32:42.319><c> of</c><00:32:42.519><c> the</c><00:32:42.720><c> altar.</c>

00:32:43.380 --> 00:32:45.500
He<00:32:43.720><c> knew</c><00:32:43.980><c> where</c><00:32:44.200><c> He</c><00:32:44.359><c> was</c><00:32:44.559><c> going.</c>

00:32:46.640 --> 00:32:49.740
So<00:32:46.839><c> here</c><00:32:47.160><c> is</c><00:32:47.480><c> that</c><00:32:48.259><c> first</c><00:32:48.799><c> coming</c><00:32:49.099><c> to</c><00:32:49.359><c> Zion.</c>

00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:51.420
Didn't<00:32:50.059><c> the</c><00:32:50.160><c> first</c><00:32:50.400><c> time</c><00:32:50.579><c> Jesus</c><00:32:50.900><c> Christ</c>

00:32:51.420 --> 00:32:52.700
has<00:32:51.799><c> visited</c><00:32:52.140><c> it.</c>

00:32:53.140 --> 00:32:55.259
But<00:32:53.380><c> now</c><00:32:53.819><c> when</c><00:32:54.000><c> all</c><00:32:54.299><c> these</c><00:32:54.579><c> acclamations</c>

00:32:55.259 --> 00:32:56.559

00:32:56.559 --> 00:32:58.900
are<00:32:57.579><c> sounding</c><00:32:57.759><c> in</c><00:32:58.079><c> the</c><00:32:58.200><c> ears</c><00:32:58.359><c> of</c><00:32:58.599><c> everybody,</c>

00:32:58.900 --> 00:33:01.440
including,<00:32:59.720><c> you</c><00:33:00.160><c> know,</c>

00:33:01.880 --> 00:33:03.339
the<00:33:01.980><c> scribes</c><00:33:02.460><c> and</c><00:33:02.740><c> Pharisees</c>

00:33:03.339 --> 00:33:05.619
who<00:33:03.500><c> want</c><00:33:03.799><c> that</c><00:33:04.200><c> noise</c><00:33:04.460><c> to</c><00:33:04.779><c> cease,</c>

00:33:05.920 --> 00:33:07.180
when<00:33:06.019><c> Jesus</c><00:33:06.299><c> said,</c><00:33:06.539><c> if</c><00:33:06.559><c> these</c><00:33:06.839><c> cease,</c>

00:33:07.259 --> 00:33:09.380
then<00:33:07.420><c> the</c><00:33:07.680><c> stones</c><00:33:07.900><c> will</c><00:33:08.119><c> cry</c><00:33:08.359><c> out.</c>

00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:12.460
There<00:33:11.160><c> was</c><00:33:11.359><c> no</c><00:33:11.680><c> way</c>

00:33:12.460 --> 00:33:15.740
in<00:33:13.259><c> which</c><00:33:13.440><c> the</c><00:33:13.640><c> Word</c><00:33:13.779><c> of</c><00:33:13.940><c> God</c><00:33:14.119><c> could</c><00:33:14.279><c> be</c><00:33:14.519><c> silenced.</c>

00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:17.039
There<00:33:15.920><c> was</c><00:33:16.099><c> no</c><00:33:16.400><c> way</c><00:33:16.700><c> in</c><00:33:16.859><c> which</c>

00:33:17.039 --> 00:33:18.440
anyone<00:33:17.220><c> would</c><00:33:17.420><c> stop</c><00:33:17.680><c> Christ</c>

00:33:18.440 --> 00:33:20.799
coming<00:33:19.480><c> to</c><00:33:19.740><c> Calvary.</c>

00:33:21.799 --> 00:33:24.059
That's<00:33:22.200><c> the</c><00:33:22.359><c> city</c><00:33:22.539><c> to</c><00:33:22.700><c> which</c><00:33:22.819><c> we</c><00:33:23.119><c> come.</c>

00:33:24.619 --> 00:33:25.400
Is<00:33:24.700><c> it</c><00:33:24.900><c> not?</c>

00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:28.200
We<00:33:26.519><c> are</c><00:33:26.740><c> enlisted</c><00:33:27.700><c> now</c>

00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:30.119
in<00:33:28.420><c> the</c><00:33:28.559><c> risen</c><00:33:28.779><c> Christ.</c>

00:33:30.619 --> 00:33:32.660
We<00:33:30.640><c> don't</c><00:33:31.059><c> just</c><00:33:31.319><c> remember</c><00:33:31.640><c> the</c><00:33:31.839><c> dead</c><00:33:32.160><c> Christ.</c>

00:33:32.779 --> 00:33:34.279
We<00:33:32.819><c> don't</c><00:33:33.079><c> have</c><00:33:33.519><c> bleeding</c><00:33:33.839><c> hearts</c>

00:33:34.279 --> 00:33:36.099
behind<00:33:34.660><c> our</c><00:33:34.960><c> front</c><00:33:35.140><c> doors,</c>

00:33:36.119 --> 00:33:37.920
as<00:33:36.220><c> some</c><00:33:36.500><c> persons</c><00:33:36.859><c> do.</c>

00:33:38.160 --> 00:33:39.819
We<00:33:38.420><c> don't</c><00:33:38.640><c> have</c><00:33:39.000><c> crucifixes</c>

00:33:39.819 --> 00:33:42.819
and<00:33:40.180><c> things</c><00:33:40.420><c> of</c><00:33:40.599><c> that</c><00:33:40.779><c> kind</c><00:33:41.039><c> around</c><00:33:41.339><c> our</c><00:33:41.599><c> necks.</c>

00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:44.900
It's<00:33:43.180><c> not</c><00:33:43.339><c> just</c><00:33:43.599><c> that</c><00:33:43.819><c> they</c><00:33:44.440><c> are</c>

00:33:44.900 --> 00:33:45.960
heathen<00:33:45.339><c> symbols.</c>

00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:48.720
The<00:33:46.559><c> fact</c><00:33:46.740><c> is,</c><00:33:47.700><c> they</c><00:33:47.859><c> speak</c><00:33:48.079><c> of</c><00:33:48.299><c> death,</c>

00:33:49.140 --> 00:33:50.940
and<00:33:49.160><c> our</c><00:33:49.440><c> Christ</c><00:33:49.720><c> is</c><00:33:49.980><c> alive.</c>

00:33:52.019 --> 00:33:53.119
We're<00:33:52.279><c> not</c><00:33:52.400><c> living</c><00:33:52.539><c> in</c><00:33:52.680><c> the</c><00:33:52.839><c> past,</c>

00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:55.000
we're<00:33:53.200><c> living</c><00:33:53.599><c> in</c><00:33:54.500><c> the</c><00:33:54.720><c> present.</c>

00:33:55.180 --> 00:33:57.000
Christ<00:33:55.559><c> is</c><00:33:55.799><c> alive</c><00:33:56.019><c> and</c><00:33:56.220><c> in</c><00:33:56.339><c> the</c><00:33:56.519><c> future</c>

with<00:33:57.539><c> Christ.</c>

00:33:58.720 --> 00:34:00.200
Awaiting<00:33:59.240><c> for</c><00:33:59.400><c> this</c><00:33:59.579><c> great</c><00:33:59.819><c> day</c>

00:34:00.200 --> 00:34:01.720
when,<00:34:00.680><c> open</c><00:34:00.880><c> ye</c><00:34:01.059><c> the</c><00:34:01.240><c> gates,</c>

00:34:02.079 --> 00:34:04.380
as<00:34:02.259><c> we</c><00:34:02.420><c> shall</c><00:34:02.559><c> just</c><00:34:02.880><c> mention,</c><00:34:03.859><c> God</c><00:34:04.019><c> willing,</c>

00:34:04.619 --> 00:34:05.680
on<00:34:04.779><c> Saturday</c><00:34:05.059><c> morning,</c>

00:34:05.900 --> 00:34:07.119
we'll<00:34:06.019><c> have</c><00:34:06.180><c> a</c><00:34:06.700><c> greater,</c>

00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:09.099
no,<00:34:07.940><c> not</c><00:34:08.139><c> a</c><00:34:08.320><c> greater,</c>

00:34:09.860 --> 00:34:12.760
we'll<00:34:10.039><c> have</c><00:34:10.219><c> another</c><00:34:11.199><c> fulfillment</c>

00:34:13.260 --> 00:34:15.880
and<00:34:13.800><c> a</c><00:34:14.019><c> largeness</c><00:34:14.500><c> of</c><00:34:14.800><c> glory</c>

00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:17.639
that<00:34:17.019><c> we</c><00:34:17.159><c> don't</c><00:34:17.400><c> see</c>

00:34:17.639 --> 00:34:18.860
at<00:34:17.780><c> this</c><00:34:17.940><c> particular</c><00:34:18.340><c> time.</c>

00:34:19.059 --> 00:34:21.039
Back<00:34:19.320><c> to</c><00:34:19.519><c> Isaiah</c><00:34:19.820><c> 26</c><00:34:20.420><c> then.</c>

00:34:21.039 --> 00:34:23.679
And<00:34:21.980><c> remember</c><00:34:22.440><c> then,</c><00:34:22.840><c> if</c><00:34:22.960><c> nothing</c><00:34:23.219><c> else,</c>

00:34:23.980 --> 00:34:25.000
a<00:34:23.980><c> golden</c><00:34:24.159><c> thought</c><00:34:24.420><c> for</c><00:34:24.599><c> today,</c>

00:34:25.360 --> 00:34:27.500
God<00:34:25.719><c> is</c><00:34:26.239><c> on</c><00:34:26.460><c> my</c><00:34:26.760><c> side.</c>

00:34:27.820 --> 00:34:28.800
Right?

00:34:29.559 --> 00:34:31.179
Once<00:34:29.719><c> we've</c><00:34:29.980><c> got</c><00:34:30.039><c> that,</c>

00:34:31.519 --> 00:34:33.119
lift<00:34:31.699><c> up</c><00:34:31.860><c> your</c><00:34:32.079><c> heads.</c>

00:34:34.179 --> 00:34:35.659
So<00:34:34.300><c> here</c><00:34:34.440><c> in</c><00:34:34.599><c> Isaiah</c><00:34:34.840><c> 26,</c>

00:34:36.320 --> 00:34:37.659
we<00:34:36.500><c> have</c><00:34:36.840><c> a</c>

00:34:38.260 --> 00:34:40.000
a<00:34:38.400><c> psalm</c><00:34:39.079><c> of</c>

00:34:40.000 --> 00:34:41.980
beginning<00:34:40.599><c> and</c><00:34:41.000><c> comfort</c>

00:34:42.260 --> 00:34:44.880
down<00:34:42.900><c> to</c><00:34:43.079><c> the</c><00:34:43.079><c> end</c><00:34:43.280><c> of</c><00:34:43.400><c> verse</c><00:34:43.599><c> 4.</c>

00:34:46.119 --> 00:34:47.099
Then<00:34:46.340><c> we've</c><00:34:46.599><c> got</c>

00:34:47.099 --> 00:34:48.219
psalms<00:34:47.619><c> of</c><00:34:47.880><c> upright,</c>

00:34:48.239 --> 00:34:50.119
words<00:34:48.559><c> of</c><00:34:48.820><c> uprightness</c>

00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:51.519
that<00:34:50.639><c> follow</c><00:34:50.920><c> through,</c>

00:34:51.639 --> 00:34:53.500
and<00:34:51.920><c> words</c><00:34:52.119><c> of</c><00:34:52.380><c> comfort</c><00:34:52.719><c> in</c><00:34:53.039><c> verse</c><00:34:53.280><c> 8,</c>

00:34:53.500 --> 00:34:55.340
Ye<00:34:53.679><c> in</c><00:34:53.820><c> the</c><00:34:53.940><c> way</c><00:34:54.079><c> of</c><00:34:54.239><c> thy</c><00:34:54.380><c> judgments,</c><00:34:54.780><c> O</c><00:34:55.099><c> Lord,</c>

00:34:55.639 --> 00:34:57.219
have<00:34:55.880><c> we</c><00:34:56.260><c> waited.</c>

00:34:57.579 --> 00:34:59.860
This<00:34:57.760><c> is</c><00:34:57.960><c> an</c><00:34:58.219><c> interjection</c><00:34:58.900><c> by</c><00:34:59.139><c> Isaiah,</c>

00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:01.780
as<00:35:00.539><c> it</c><00:35:00.780><c> were,</c>

00:35:02.300 --> 00:35:04.139
where<00:35:02.639><c> as</c><00:35:02.860><c> he's</c><00:35:03.400><c> given</c>

00:35:04.599 --> 00:35:05.920
the<00:35:05.079><c> revelation</c><00:35:05.539><c> concerning</c>

00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:07.159
the<00:35:06.179><c> city,</c>

00:35:07.659 --> 00:35:09.099
he's<00:35:07.900><c> also</c><00:35:08.139><c> allowed</c><00:35:08.440><c> by</c><00:35:08.699><c> the</c><00:35:08.920><c> Spirit,</c>

00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:10.639
and<00:35:09.280><c> by</c><00:35:09.420><c> the</c><00:35:09.599><c> Spirit</c><00:35:09.760><c> guided</c><00:35:10.139><c> to</c><00:35:10.460><c> say,</c>

00:35:10.739 --> 00:35:13.420
We've<00:35:11.199><c> waited,</c><00:35:11.619><c> O</c><00:35:11.739><c> Lord,</c><00:35:11.920><c> for</c><00:35:12.099><c> thy</c><00:35:12.260><c> salvation.</c>

00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:15.400
Here<00:35:13.940><c> it</c><00:35:14.119><c> is,</c><00:35:14.300><c> we've</c><00:35:14.619><c> waited</c><00:35:14.780><c> for</c><00:35:15.019><c> thee.</c>

00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:17.699
That's<00:35:16.039><c> what</c><00:35:16.079><c> it</c><00:35:16.260><c> said</c><00:35:16.340><c> in</c><00:35:16.539><c> the</c><00:35:16.559><c> preceding</c><00:35:16.980><c> chapter,</c><00:35:17.320><c> wasn't</c><00:35:17.519><c> it?</c>

00:35:17.699 --> 00:35:20.360
This<00:35:17.960><c> is</c><00:35:18.139><c> our</c><00:35:18.340><c> God.</c><00:35:18.920><c> We</c><00:35:19.000><c> have</c><00:35:19.199><c> waited</c><00:35:19.420><c> for</c><00:35:19.639><c> him.</c>

00:35:20.679 --> 00:35:21.460
And<00:35:20.780><c> so</c><00:35:20.820><c> we</c><00:35:20.980><c> are</c><00:35:21.079><c> waiting.</c>

00:35:21.800 --> 00:35:24.039
And<00:35:21.880><c> Isaiah</c><00:35:22.219><c> then</c><00:35:22.900><c> individualizes</c><00:35:23.659><c> it,</c>

00:35:24.079 --> 00:35:25.159
if<00:35:24.199><c> you</c><00:35:24.300><c> understand</c><00:35:24.599><c> what</c><00:35:24.760><c> I</c><00:35:24.920><c> mean.</c>

00:35:25.360 --> 00:35:28.559
When<00:35:25.500><c> you</c><00:35:25.599><c> go</c><00:35:25.699><c> to</c><00:35:25.820><c> verse</c><00:35:26.000><c> 9,</c><00:35:26.619><c> it's</c><00:35:26.699><c> no</c><00:35:26.860><c> longer</c><00:35:27.099><c> we.</c>

00:35:28.980 --> 00:35:29.960
He<00:35:29.039><c> says,</c><00:35:29.360><c> With</c><00:35:29.360><c> my</c><00:35:29.679><c> soul</c>

00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:31.480
have<00:35:30.219><c> I</c><00:35:30.760><c> desired</c>

00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:33.500
thee<00:35:32.179><c> in</c><00:35:32.460><c> the</c><00:35:32.559><c> night.</c>

00:35:33.539 --> 00:35:36.500
Alright?<00:35:34.480><c> Here</c><00:35:34.679><c> are</c><00:35:34.840><c> our</c><00:35:35.000><c> night</c><00:35:35.239><c> songs.</c>

00:35:37.059 --> 00:35:37.699
We're<00:35:37.300><c> not</c><00:35:37.519><c> saved</c>

00:35:37.699 --> 00:35:40.260
because<00:35:38.019><c> we're</c><00:35:38.280><c> in</c><00:35:38.400><c> a</c><00:35:38.480><c> group</c><00:35:38.599><c> of</c><00:35:38.780><c> brethren</c><00:35:38.980><c> and</c><00:35:39.199><c> sisters.</c>

00:35:40.320 --> 00:35:41.559
Oh<00:35:40.420><c> yes,</c><00:35:40.599><c> we're</c><00:35:40.739><c> with</c><00:35:40.980><c> them,</c><00:35:41.159><c> and</c><00:35:41.320><c> together</c>

00:35:41.559 --> 00:35:43.880
we<00:35:41.800><c> wait</c><00:35:42.079><c> for</c><00:35:42.239><c> the</c><00:35:42.360><c> coming</c><00:35:42.539><c> of</c><00:35:42.780><c> Christ.</c>

00:35:44.059 --> 00:35:45.920
But<00:35:44.199><c> salvation</c><00:35:44.619><c> is</c><00:35:44.880><c> individual.</c>

00:35:46.460 --> 00:35:48.559
And<00:35:47.059><c> we</c><00:35:47.239><c> have</c><00:35:47.420><c> to</c><00:35:47.599><c> desire.</c>

00:35:48.900 --> 00:35:49.780
Just<00:35:49.079><c> like</c><00:35:49.320><c> Christ</c><00:35:49.579><c> said,</c>

00:35:50.079 --> 00:35:51.619
With<00:35:50.079><c> desire</c><00:35:50.480><c> I</c><00:35:50.719><c> have</c><00:35:50.900><c> desired</c><00:35:51.300><c> to</c><00:35:51.500><c> eat</c>

00:35:51.619 --> 00:35:53.260
this<00:35:51.940><c> sacrifice</c><00:35:52.460><c> with</c><00:35:52.679><c> you</c>

00:35:53.260 --> 00:35:55.039
before<00:35:53.760><c> I</c><00:35:54.079><c> suffer.</c>

00:35:55.179 --> 00:35:57.519
So<00:35:55.300><c> we</c><00:35:55.599><c> now</c><00:35:56.000><c> desire</c><00:35:56.699><c> in</c><00:35:57.000><c> the</c><00:35:57.219><c> night</c>

00:35:57.519 --> 00:35:59.000
before<00:35:57.880><c> the</c><00:35:58.099><c> sun</c><00:35:58.340><c> rises,</c>

00:35:59.340 --> 00:36:01.860
the<00:35:59.380><c> sun</c><00:35:59.559><c> of</c><00:35:59.780><c> righteousness</c><00:36:00.219><c> with</c><00:36:00.559><c> healing</c><00:36:00.840><c> in</c><00:36:01.199><c> his</c><00:36:01.420><c> beams.</c>

00:36:02.139 --> 00:36:03.199
We<00:36:02.480><c> are</c><00:36:02.739><c> waiting</c>

00:36:03.199 --> 00:36:04.579
in<00:36:03.820><c> the</c><00:36:04.039><c> night.</c>

00:36:04.880 --> 00:36:07.019
Not<00:36:05.079><c> dispirited,</c><00:36:06.360><c> we're</c><00:36:06.480><c> just</c><00:36:06.699><c> waiting,</c>

00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:08.920
standing<00:36:07.420><c> on</c><00:36:07.719><c> tiptoe</c>

00:36:08.920 --> 00:36:10.780
so<00:36:09.039><c> that</c><00:36:09.179><c> the</c><00:36:09.320><c> first</c><00:36:09.599><c> glint</c><00:36:09.980><c> of</c><00:36:10.300><c> dawn</c>

00:36:10.780 --> 00:36:13.219
that<00:36:11.019><c> comes</c><00:36:11.239><c> over</c><00:36:11.539><c> the</c><00:36:11.599><c> horizon</c><00:36:12.159><c> will</c><00:36:12.559><c> touch</c><00:36:12.780><c> us</c>

00:36:13.219 --> 00:36:15.820
because<00:36:14.079><c> we're</c><00:36:14.300><c> waiting</c><00:36:14.639><c> for</c><00:36:14.840><c> the</c><00:36:15.059><c> Christ.</c>

00:36:17.820 --> 00:36:19.199
There<00:36:17.940><c> it</c><00:36:18.139><c> is.</c>

00:36:19.219 --> 00:36:21.179
With<00:36:19.360><c> my</c><00:36:19.639><c> spirit</c><00:36:20.199><c> within</c><00:36:20.780><c> me</c>

00:36:21.179 --> 00:36:23.139
I<00:36:21.559><c> will</c><00:36:21.880><c> seek</c><00:36:22.139><c> thee</c>

00:36:23.139 --> 00:36:25.219
diligently.<00:36:24.039><c> You</c><00:36:24.139><c> can</c><00:36:24.320><c> put</c><00:36:24.400><c> that</c><00:36:24.579><c> in</c><00:36:24.659><c> your</c><00:36:24.920><c> margin</c>

00:36:25.219 --> 00:36:27.719
as<00:36:25.440><c> an</c><00:36:25.699><c> alternative</c><00:36:26.199><c> to</c><00:36:26.559><c> seek</c><00:36:26.820><c> the</c>

00:36:27.880 --> 00:36:29.059
early.<00:36:28.559><c> It</c><00:36:28.739><c> is,</c>

00:36:29.260 --> 00:36:31.400
and<00:36:29.559><c> that's</c><00:36:29.719><c> what</c><00:36:29.860><c> the</c><00:36:30.000><c> word,</c><00:36:30.519><c> I</c><00:36:30.539><c> think,</c>

00:36:31.519 --> 00:36:33.019
has<00:36:31.739><c> as</c><00:36:31.880><c> its</c><00:36:32.099><c> meaning.</c>

00:36:33.880 --> 00:36:35.400
The<00:36:34.019><c> world</c><00:36:34.260><c> has</c><00:36:34.440><c> got</c><00:36:34.639><c> things</c><00:36:34.900><c> to</c><00:36:35.199><c> learn</c>

00:36:35.400 --> 00:36:37.360
and<00:36:35.539><c> that's</c><00:36:35.920><c> set</c><00:36:36.099><c> out</c><00:36:36.320><c> in</c><00:36:37.039><c> verses</c>

00:36:37.360 --> 00:36:38.940
that<00:36:37.679><c> succeed.</c>

00:36:40.340 --> 00:36:41.360
And<00:36:40.599><c> they</c><00:36:40.860><c> won't</c><00:36:41.079><c> learn</c>

00:36:41.360 --> 00:36:43.199
even<00:36:41.360><c> when</c><00:36:41.559><c> God</c><00:36:41.760><c> shows</c><00:36:42.099><c> them</c>

00:36:43.199 --> 00:36:44.219
favor<00:36:43.519><c> and</c><00:36:43.860><c> kindness.</c>

00:36:44.320 --> 00:36:46.280
Lord,<00:36:44.559><c> when</c><00:36:44.760><c> thy</c><00:36:44.880><c> hand</c><00:36:45.099><c> is</c><00:36:45.280><c> lifted</c><00:36:45.460><c> up,</c><00:36:45.679><c> verse</c><00:36:45.920><c> 11,</c>

00:36:46.480 --> 00:36:48.500
they<00:36:46.900><c> will</c><00:36:47.019><c> not</c><00:36:47.340><c> see.</c>

00:36:49.480 --> 00:36:51.739
No<00:36:49.679><c> one</c><00:36:49.739><c> wants</c><00:36:49.880><c> to</c><00:36:50.000><c> acknowledge</c><00:36:50.420><c> God</c>

00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:53.079
as<00:36:52.599><c> King.</c>

00:36:53.579 --> 00:36:55.059
But<00:36:53.639><c> even</c><00:36:54.000><c> when</c><00:36:54.400><c> troubles</c><00:36:54.679><c> come</c>

00:36:55.059 --> 00:36:56.500
it<00:36:55.199><c> will</c><00:36:55.360><c> take</c><00:36:55.539><c> a</c><00:36:55.719><c> long</c><00:36:55.960><c> while</c>

00:36:56.500 --> 00:36:59.920
before<00:36:57.219><c> they</c><00:36:57.980><c> change</c><00:36:58.280><c> their</c><00:36:58.519><c> tone</c><00:36:58.739><c> of</c><00:36:58.920><c> voice.</c>

00:37:00.059 --> 00:37:01.099
Often<00:37:00.300><c> when</c><00:37:00.460><c> we</c><00:37:00.599><c> sit</c><00:37:00.719><c> down</c>

00:37:01.099 --> 00:37:02.880
to<00:37:01.340><c> have</c><00:37:01.500><c> a</c><00:37:01.659><c> meal</c><00:37:01.800><c> outside</c>

00:37:03.019 --> 00:37:05.159
as<00:37:03.500><c> we</c><00:37:03.719><c> do</c><00:37:04.039><c> here,</c>

00:37:05.460 --> 00:37:06.559

00:37:08.059 --> 00:37:09.559
Isn't<00:37:08.820><c> it</c><00:37:09.059><c> grand</c>

00:37:15.699 --> 00:37:16.039
Nobody<00:37:15.880><c> else</c>

00:37:16.039 --> 00:37:18.059

00:37:18.199 --> 00:37:19.599
It's<00:37:18.420><c> all</c><00:37:18.619><c> mine.</c>

00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:21.539
I<00:37:19.840><c> just</c><00:37:20.019><c> paid</c><00:37:20.159><c> for</c><00:37:20.320><c> it</c><00:37:20.360><c> with</c><00:37:20.519><c> my</c><00:37:20.719><c> buck.</c>

But<00:37:22.420><c> it</c><00:37:22.500><c> isn't</c><00:37:22.679><c> like</c><00:37:23.039><c> that,</c>

00:37:23.699 --> 00:37:27.119

00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:28.099
because<00:37:27.880><c> he's</c>

00:37:28.099 --> 00:37:29.119
the<00:37:28.260><c> God</c><00:37:28.380><c> of</c><00:37:28.559><c> salvation.</c>

00:37:35.719 --> 00:37:37.739

give<00:37:42.039><c> thanks.</c>

00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:44.679
But<00:37:43.480><c> we</c><00:37:43.659><c> are</c><00:37:43.739><c> still</c><00:37:43.900><c> alive</c>

00:37:44.679 --> 00:37:48.039
that<00:37:45.280><c> God</c><00:37:45.480><c> is</c><00:37:45.760><c> still</c><00:37:46.760><c> marching</c>

00:37:48.199 --> 00:37:49.420
to<00:37:48.599><c> his</c><00:37:48.840><c> kingdom</c>

00:37:49.420 --> 00:37:51.139
and<00:37:49.940><c> wants</c><00:37:50.159><c> us</c><00:37:50.360><c> to</c><00:37:50.500><c> be</c><00:37:50.719><c> there.</c>

00:37:51.519 --> 00:37:53.780
Oh,<00:37:51.659><c> the</c><00:37:51.739><c> inhabitants</c><00:37:52.000><c> of</c><00:37:52.139><c> the</c><00:37:52.300><c> world</c><00:37:52.420><c> will</c><00:37:52.719><c> learn.</c>

00:37:54.059 --> 00:37:55.159
That's<00:37:54.400><c> what</c><00:37:54.400><c> it</c><00:37:54.519><c> says.</c>

00:37:55.400 --> 00:37:56.940
Lord,<00:37:55.500><c> when</c><00:37:55.659><c> thy</c><00:37:55.780><c> hand</c><00:37:55.980><c> is</c><00:37:56.159><c> lifted</c><00:37:56.340><c> up,</c>

00:37:57.139 --> 00:37:58.960
well,<00:37:57.320><c> there's</c><00:37:57.579><c> the</c><00:37:57.800><c> favor</c><00:37:58.000><c> in</c><00:37:58.179><c> verse</c><00:37:58.380><c> 10.</c><00:37:58.780><c> He</c><00:37:58.780><c> said</c>

00:37:58.960 --> 00:38:01.599
he<00:37:59.260><c> will</c><00:37:59.460><c> not</c><00:37:59.699><c> learn,</c><00:38:00.099><c> yet</c><00:38:00.219><c> they</c><00:38:00.400><c> will</c><00:38:00.679><c> learn.</c>

00:38:02.019 --> 00:38:04.119
The<00:38:02.179><c> nations</c><00:38:02.400><c> are</c><00:38:02.559><c> going</c><00:38:02.639><c> to</c><00:38:02.760><c> be</c><00:38:02.880><c> chastised</c>

00:38:04.119 --> 00:38:05.980
and<00:38:04.519><c> that</c><00:38:04.780><c> greatly.</c>

00:38:06.000 --> 00:38:08.099
Oh,<00:38:06.159><c> other</c><00:38:06.300><c> lords</c><00:38:06.579><c> have</c><00:38:06.760><c> had</c><00:38:06.860><c> dominion</c><00:38:07.260><c> over</c><00:38:07.559><c> us</c>

00:38:08.099 --> 00:38:09.619
here,<00:38:08.920><c> Isaiah</c><00:38:09.239><c> says,</c>

00:38:09.699 --> 00:38:11.880
and<00:38:10.219><c> Zion</c><00:38:10.639><c> says.</c>

00:38:12.019 --> 00:38:13.519
But<00:38:12.619><c> in</c><00:38:13.059><c> thee</c><00:38:13.219><c> only</c>

00:38:13.519 --> 00:38:15.960
will<00:38:13.920><c> we</c><00:38:14.159><c> make</c><00:38:14.300><c> mention</c><00:38:14.579><c> of</c><00:38:14.780><c> thy</c><00:38:14.900><c> name.</c>

00:38:16.099 --> 00:38:18.239
They've<00:38:16.440><c> gone.</c><00:38:16.739><c> They're</c><00:38:17.099><c> dead.</c>

00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:20.179
It's<00:38:19.300><c> all</c><00:38:19.539><c> over</c><00:38:19.780><c> as</c><00:38:19.980><c> far</c><00:38:20.059><c> as</c>

00:38:20.179 --> 00:38:21.280
they<00:38:20.320><c> did</c><00:38:20.500><c> not</c><00:38:20.719><c> rise.</c>

00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:24.139
They<00:38:21.860><c> just</c><00:38:22.099><c> came</c><00:38:22.420><c> and</c><00:38:22.579><c> they</c><00:38:22.840><c> passed</c><00:38:23.059><c> away.</c>

00:38:25.199 --> 00:38:26.460
But<00:38:25.320><c> Zion,</c>

00:38:26.659 --> 00:38:27.599
Zion<00:38:26.960><c> is</c><00:38:27.179><c> like</c>

00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:28.920
a<00:38:27.739><c> woman</c><00:38:27.920><c> with</c><00:38:28.219><c> child</c>

00:38:28.920 --> 00:38:33.000
just<00:38:29.840><c> waiting</c><00:38:30.179><c> for</c><00:38:30.440><c> the</c><00:38:30.619><c> moment,</c><00:38:31.780><c> you</c><00:38:31.960><c> know.</c>

00:38:33.559 --> 00:38:34.960
Again,<00:38:33.940><c> one</c><00:38:34.099><c> of</c><00:38:34.179><c> the</c><00:38:34.280><c> young</c><00:38:34.380><c> people</c><00:38:34.559><c> this</c><00:38:34.699><c> morning</c>

00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:36.440
said<00:38:35.139><c> to</c><00:38:35.300><c> me,</c><00:38:35.380><c> it</c><00:38:35.400><c> was</c><00:38:35.519><c> just</c><00:38:35.699><c> interesting.</c><00:38:36.219><c> These</c><00:38:36.239><c> people</c>

00:38:36.440 --> 00:38:38.800
just<00:38:36.900><c> came</c><00:38:37.119><c> up</c><00:38:37.320><c> and</c><00:38:37.460><c> talked</c><00:38:37.719><c> afterwards.</c>

00:38:39.500 --> 00:38:40.760
What<00:38:39.860><c> happened</c><00:38:40.219><c> if</c><00:38:40.380><c> a</c><00:38:40.579><c> baby</c>

00:38:40.760 --> 00:38:42.780
was<00:38:41.059><c> born</c><00:38:41.300><c> on</c><00:38:41.539><c> the</c><00:38:41.699><c> Sabbath</c><00:38:41.900><c> day</c><00:38:42.480><c> then?</c>

00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:45.000
You<00:38:42.900><c> know,</c><00:38:42.980><c> with</c><00:38:43.099><c> all</c><00:38:43.280><c> the</c><00:38:43.420><c> restrictions</c><00:38:43.739><c> of</c><00:38:43.960><c> the</c><00:38:44.079><c> Pharisees.</c>

00:38:45.360 --> 00:38:46.639
I<00:38:45.380><c> said,</c><00:38:46.639><c> well,</c>

00:38:47.099 --> 00:38:48.579
they<00:38:47.219><c> didn't</c><00:38:47.480><c> say,</c><00:38:48.039><c> and</c><00:38:48.179><c> the</c><00:38:48.219><c> mother</c><00:38:48.360><c> didn't</c>

00:38:48.579 --> 00:38:50.900
say<00:38:48.739><c> to</c><00:38:48.860><c> the</c><00:38:48.980><c> baby,</c><00:38:49.239><c> you'd</c><00:38:49.460><c> better</c><00:38:49.559><c> wait</c><00:38:49.840><c> till</c><00:38:49.980><c> tomorrow.</c>

00:38:52.400 --> 00:38:52.920
There<00:38:52.539><c> was</c><00:38:52.719><c> no</c>

00:38:54.579 --> 00:38:56.320
than<00:38:54.760><c> when</c><00:38:54.880><c> the</c><00:38:55.079><c> baby</c><00:38:55.300><c> is</c><00:38:55.500><c> ready</c><00:38:55.679><c> to</c><00:38:55.840><c> be</c><00:38:56.019><c> born.</c>

No<00:38:57.039><c> better</c><00:38:57.280><c> time.</c>

00:38:59.099 --> 00:38:59.760
All<00:38:59.300><c> right.</c>

00:38:59.760 --> 00:39:02.000
And<00:39:00.360><c> if</c><00:39:00.500><c> you've</c><00:39:00.719><c> got</c><00:39:00.780><c> to</c><00:39:01.099><c> circumcise</c><00:39:01.539><c> your</c><00:39:01.800><c> baby</c>

00:39:06.739 --> 00:39:07.980
You<00:39:06.920><c> want</c><00:39:07.099><c> it</c><00:39:07.219><c> to</c><00:39:07.420><c> be</c>

And<00:39:10.179><c> so,</c><00:39:11.079><c> we</c>

This<00:42:38.940><c> is</c><00:42:39.400><c> the</c><00:42:39.559><c> wonder.</c><00:42:40.000><c> We</c><00:42:40.219><c> have</c><00:42:40.400><c> a</c><00:42:40.559><c> saviour.</c>

00:42:41.739 --> 00:42:42.599
It's<00:42:42.139><c> unique,</c>

00:42:42.980 --> 00:42:44.820
totally<00:42:43.320><c> unique,</c><00:42:44.139><c> that</c><00:42:44.280><c> a</c><00:42:44.380><c> man</c><00:42:44.539><c> should</c>

00:42:53.039 --> 00:42:54.880
So<00:42:53.199><c> let's</c><00:42:53.460><c> stand</c><00:42:53.719><c> by</c><00:42:54.139><c> the</c><00:42:54.500><c> wonder</c><00:42:54.679><c> of</c>

00:43:01.699 --> 00:43:02.920

in<00:43:25.739><c> fact,</c><00:43:26.219><c> and</c><00:43:26.500><c> they're</c><00:43:26.659><c> not</c><00:43:26.800><c> versions</c>

00:43:27.139 --> 00:43:28.900
that<00:43:27.460><c> are</c><00:43:27.940><c> inventing</c><00:43:28.440><c> meanings,</c>

00:43:29.199 --> 00:43:31.099
you<00:43:29.280><c> see</c><00:43:29.360><c> the</c><00:43:29.480><c> word</c><00:43:29.719><c> body</c><00:43:30.039><c> there,</c>

00:43:38.179 --> 00:43:39.300
So<00:43:38.440><c> it's</c><00:43:38.539><c> an</c><00:43:38.659><c> interesting</c><00:43:38.960><c> verse,</c>

00:43:42.179 --> 00:43:43.639
But<00:43:42.900><c> let's</c><00:43:43.119><c> just</c><00:43:43.340><c> take</c><00:43:43.460><c> it</c>

00:43:58.320 --> 00:43:59.519
I<00:43:59.039><c> mentioned</c><00:43:59.340><c> this</c>

00:43:59.519 --> 00:44:01.420

00:44:10.119 --> 00:44:10.920

00:45:44.679 --> 00:45:46.579
having<00:45:44.900><c> been</c><00:45:45.119><c> raised</c><00:45:45.360><c> from</c><00:45:45.579><c> the</c><00:45:45.760><c> dead,</c><00:45:46.280><c> and</c><00:45:46.380><c> God</c>

00:45:50.480 --> 00:45:53.019
I've<00:45:50.739><c> cut</c><00:45:51.059><c> the</c><00:45:51.239><c> first</c><00:45:51.619><c> sheaf.</c>

00:45:53.480 --> 00:45:54.559
And<00:45:53.639><c> it's</c><00:45:53.760><c> been</c><00:45:53.960><c> waived</c><00:45:54.179><c> before</c>

00:45:54.559 --> 00:45:56.920

00:45:58.820 --> 00:46:00.599

00:46:18.539 --> 00:46:20.360
