[Music]

00:00:10.719 --> 00:00:13.360
and welcome. It's Friday and we're

00:00:13.360 --> 00:00:15.480
grateful to have with us Mr. Richard

00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:18.760
Lee. I know he prepares for these

00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:21.359
broadcast and also led by the Holy

00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:24.160
Spirit. So, let's welcome now once again

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:27.119
Mr. Richard Lee. Welcome.

00:00:27.119 --> 00:00:29.439
Good evening, Mr. Greg and Mrs. Rebecca

00:00:29.439 --> 00:00:32.000
and and the audience for my wife Lona

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:32.920
and

00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:36.320
myself as always it's it's good to be

00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:39.280
back around the word of God which is

00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:42.160
able to make us wise under salvation and

00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:44.640
let's seek uh God's blessing on our

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:48.200
meeting this evening.

00:00:48.239 --> 00:00:50.399
Almighty God, thou who dwellest above

00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:53.520
the heavens of the heavens, and yet thou

00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:56.280
has been so kind to

00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:59.280
mankind, and revealing the gospel that

00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:01.680
was before, preach the faithful Abraham,

00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:04.400
thy friend, concerning an everlasting

00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:06.799
kingdom that is to come, that will never

00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:09.000
be destroyed or given to other

00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:11.600
people, but will be given to the saints,

00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:13.680
those who have put on the saving name of

00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:15.360
Jesus, the name that he received from

00:01:15.360 --> 00:01:16.520
thee at his

00:01:16.520 --> 00:01:19.200
birth. And we pray now until he come

00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:22.240
that we occupy one with another,

00:01:22.240 --> 00:01:24.960
strengthening one another, holding fast

00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:26.479
to those things that we've been taught

00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:29.360
in by the holy scriptures and by our

00:01:29.360 --> 00:01:31.920
Lord Jesus Christ when he was here 2,000

00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:33.600
years ago.

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:35.759
We ask that you'll be with with us now

00:01:35.759 --> 00:01:38.960
and that there may be attentive ears

00:01:38.960 --> 00:01:41.040
that'll be listening and searching these

00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.920
things out and see if was there being

00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:47.759
heard is coming from thus says the Lord

00:01:47.759 --> 00:01:50.320
God of Israel of the holy scripture. So

00:01:50.320 --> 00:01:53.280
we thank you now for your great love and

00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:55.439
know that thou will accept our prayer

00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:57.200
this evening because we ask it in the

00:01:57.200 --> 00:01:59.439
way appointed that thou has appointed

00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.040
through thy beloved son our faithful

00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:02.560
high priest and mediator of the Lord

00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:04.799
Jesus Christ our righteousness coming

00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:09.079
king even Jesus. Amen.

00:02:09.119 --> 00:02:12.120
What I'm going to do is this

00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.160
evening I'm going to go to

00:02:15.160 --> 00:02:19.800
the third lesson of the 20 lesson

00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:22.640
format because we've been over the first

00:02:22.640 --> 00:02:25.239
two and in fact some of the three

00:02:25.239 --> 00:02:28.319
also but uh just bear with me. Some of

00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:31.000
the things you hear, you you

00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:35.200
probably already heard already, but it's

00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:37.720
essential in order for me to make my con

00:02:37.720 --> 00:02:40.640
connections that I have to go over

00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:42.599
certain verses in order to

00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:46.760
connect. So without further any further

00:02:46.760 --> 00:02:48.959
ado, let me see if I can get the right

00:02:48.959 --> 00:02:51.280
one

00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:58.480
here. Okay.

00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:00.480
And then I have to probably have to

00:03:00.480 --> 00:03:04.560
change uh also when I after I get

00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:06.360
finished

00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:10.319
with probably this one

00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:16.000
here. Of course, all

00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:19.120
that classes is based upon the gospel of

00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:21.840
Christ. Romans 11:16. And we're going to

00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:26.360
look at the character of God again.

00:03:27.440 --> 00:03:28.920
God is not a

00:03:28.920 --> 00:03:31.760
man that he should lie, neither the son

00:03:31.760 --> 00:03:34.239
of man that he shall repent. Hath he

00:03:34.239 --> 00:03:36.280
said and shall he not do it? Or have he

00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:39.640
spoken? And shall he not make it

00:03:39.640 --> 00:03:41.879
good? He's not a

00:03:41.879 --> 00:03:46.799
man. And I uh hear people I've heard

00:03:46.799 --> 00:03:49.200
people say the man upstairs and so

00:03:49.200 --> 00:03:52.920
forth. In fact, uh

00:03:52.920 --> 00:03:55.720
uh well, I'll just leave it

00:03:55.720 --> 00:03:59.680
there. God is not a man that he should

00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:03.120
lie neither the son of man either that

00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:06.200
he should repent or that he should

00:04:06.200 --> 00:04:08.640
change. Hath he said and shall he not do

00:04:08.640 --> 00:04:10.319
it? Or have he spoken? In other words,

00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:13.200
what he said and what he has spoken, uh

00:04:13.200 --> 00:04:14.680
he's going to make it

00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:17.759
good. No ifs and buts about it. That's

00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:20.079
going to be it. And this is my favorite

00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:22.120
verse in all of

00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:25.360
scripture coupled with Mark chapter 16

00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.240
15- 16 where Jesus sends his disciples

00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:31.120
out to preach the

00:04:32.570 --> 00:04:35.769
[Music]

00:04:37.960 --> 00:04:40.720
gospel. Scripture tells us it's

00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:43.840
impossible for God to lie. Titus 1:2.

00:04:43.840 --> 00:04:45.440
I'm just going to highlight these verses

00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:47.120
here.

00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:49.280
God is not the author of confusion but

00:04:49.280 --> 00:04:52.400
of peace as in all the ecclesia or all

00:04:52.400 --> 00:04:53.880
the churches of the

00:04:53.880 --> 00:04:56.080
saints. He didn't write the scriptures

00:04:56.080 --> 00:04:59.120
to confuse us. He wants us to know him.

00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:01.440
The gifts and calling of God are without

00:05:01.440 --> 00:05:03.840
repentance or without change. And the

00:05:03.840 --> 00:05:05.759
revised standard version says for the

00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:08.520
gifts and the call of God are

00:05:08.520 --> 00:05:10.560
irrevocable. And it means the same

00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:14.330
thing. You can't change it. it

00:05:14.330 --> 00:05:17.810
[Music]

00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:20.440
stands.

00:05:20.440 --> 00:05:24.440
Therefore, if we believe that God cannot

00:05:24.440 --> 00:05:27.280
lie, then we must believe the inspired

00:05:27.280 --> 00:05:30.440
word of God, the Bible that

00:05:30.440 --> 00:05:33.919
says his word is truth. When Jesus was

00:05:33.919 --> 00:05:37.160
talking to speaking to his father in

00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:41.360
prayer, John 17:17, he he said, "Father,

00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:44.320
sanctify them, the disciples, through

00:05:44.320 --> 00:05:49.039
thy truth. Thy word is truth. God's word

00:05:49.039 --> 00:05:52.120
is truth and it's impossible for him to

00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:55.670
lie because his word is truth."

00:05:55.670 --> 00:06:01.039
[Music]

00:06:01.039 --> 00:06:02.880
Jesus said to his disciples, "Go into

00:06:02.880 --> 00:06:04.720
all the world and preach the gospel to

00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:07.120
every creature. He that believeth and is

00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:08.720
baptized shall be saved, but he that

00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:10.800
believeth not shall be damned." So you

00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:15.840
see how important that this gospel

00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:19.000
is. The gospel is the good

00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.000
news. And we'll get into what is the

00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:24.560
good news about. In fact, I'm pretty

00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:25.919
sure you already know because I've been

00:06:25.919 --> 00:06:28.319
over so many times. The gospel is the

00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:31.400
good news of the kingdom of God on

00:06:31.400 --> 00:06:33.680
earth which will be set up in the city

00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:38.199
of the great king, the new Jerusalem.

00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:40.600
Jesus reigning in his father's

00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:44.880
name as he promised King David long ago

00:06:44.880 --> 00:06:47.759
that there shall not fail a man to sit

00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:48.919
up on his

00:06:48.919 --> 00:06:52.240
throne and that God has all said that he

00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:54.199
will always keep a

00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:56.960
light for the city of Jerusalem. That

00:06:56.960 --> 00:06:59.360
light is at his right hand now as

00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:02.599
mediator and high priest waiting for his

00:07:02.599 --> 00:07:05.680
father to send him back to the earth

00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:07.759
when he will sit upon the throne of

00:07:07.759 --> 00:07:11.360
David. God promised David long ago that

00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:13.199
shall not fail a man to sit upon his

00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:15.759
throne and he kept that light and the

00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:18.639
light is almost on the he's at the door.

00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:21.680
Jesus is is uh he can come back any day

00:07:21.680 --> 00:07:24.680
now.

00:07:25.280 --> 00:07:28.120
He that believeth and is

00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:30.120
baptized believe

00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:33.199
what? The gospel. Go into all the world

00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:35.840
and preach the gospel. And there's many

00:07:35.840 --> 00:07:38.240
gospels out here that is being preached.

00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:40.319
It's not the same one that the fathers

00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:42.800
preached to Abraham. And it's not the

00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:46.960
same one that Jesus preached. And Jesus

00:07:46.960 --> 00:07:49.120
preached the same gospel that his father

00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:53.680
preached. And so did his disciples.

00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:56.400
Oops.

00:07:56.879 --> 00:07:59.520
Paul says that but though we or an angel

00:07:59.520 --> 00:08:01.440
from heaven preach any other gospel unto

00:08:01.440 --> 00:08:03.599
you than that which we have preached

00:08:03.599 --> 00:08:05.360
unto you, let them be a curse. And he

00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:07.440
says the same thing again. Anybody

00:08:07.440 --> 00:08:10.400
preaches any other gospel than that they

00:08:10.400 --> 00:08:12.400
have received, he's talking to the

00:08:12.400 --> 00:08:16.639
ecclesia uh to the church in Galatia.

00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:19.680
Anybody preaches any other gospel, the

00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:21.599
curse of God is going to be on them.

00:08:21.599 --> 00:08:24.319
That word curse is anathema. It means to

00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:28.240
be excommunicated or cut off. And if

00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:30.800
you're cut off and you don't have Christ

00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:33.599
and there's no salvation that we can

00:08:33.599 --> 00:08:36.519
have then other than

00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:40.320
Christ. Anybody else, you're dead. You

00:08:40.320 --> 00:08:41.880
believe in anybody else other than

00:08:41.880 --> 00:08:46.760
Christ, there's no hope for us.

00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:52.320
and and the scripture for saying that

00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:54.080
God would justify the heathen through

00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:55.920
faith, preach before the gospel of the

00:08:55.920 --> 00:08:58.320
Abraham, saying, "And these shall all

00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:00.399
nations be blessed." So, the good news,

00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:01.560
which is the

00:09:01.560 --> 00:09:04.800
gospel God preached to Abraham over

00:09:04.800 --> 00:09:09.040
5,000 years ago, and

00:09:09.640 --> 00:09:12.920
uh indeed shall all nations be

00:09:12.920 --> 00:09:15.120
blessed. And we're going to find out

00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:19.440
exactly what that's going to uh over a

00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:23.560
period of time. It's going to entail

00:09:23.560 --> 00:09:26.040
uh a a

00:09:26.040 --> 00:09:29.160
city and a

00:09:29.160 --> 00:09:33.560
king besides the land that God promised

00:09:33.560 --> 00:09:37.180
Abraham. I think I got it up here.

00:09:37.180 --> 00:09:39.680
[Music]

00:09:39.680 --> 00:09:41.519
Paul said he was not ashamed of the

00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:43.360
gospel of Christ for it was the power of

00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:45.760
God unto salvation to everyone that

00:09:45.760 --> 00:09:47.680
believeth to the Jew first and also to

00:09:47.680 --> 00:09:51.519
the Greek. Romans 1:16. Why would the

00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:53.320
Paul say he wasn't ashamed of the

00:09:53.320 --> 00:09:57.600
gospel? For it is the power of God unto

00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.080
is going to save him to everyone that

00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.560
believe to the Jew first and also to the

00:10:02.560 --> 00:10:05.560
Greek.

00:10:08.959 --> 00:10:11.959
Okay,

00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:16.000
I think I'm going to have to switch here

00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:17.480
and go to my

00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:20.880
other notes

00:10:22.760 --> 00:10:28.200
here. See, I think it's uh

00:10:37.190 --> 00:10:38.880
[Music]

00:10:38.880 --> 00:10:41.880
Okay,

00:10:47.200 --> 00:10:48.480
now it comes to lesson. We're going to

00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:50.399
go to uh lesson three. Let me put this

00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:53.560
on mute.

00:10:53.959 --> 00:10:57.760
Okay. Okay.

00:10:58.760 --> 00:11:00.920
Um, lesson

00:11:00.920 --> 00:11:03.600
three, but lesson one and two, we've

00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:05.920
already been through that already. We

00:11:05.920 --> 00:11:07.279
might have to go through it a little bit

00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:10.480
more in uh for connections. We're going

00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:14.240
to look at now God's creation

00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:15.399
and the

00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:19.600
trial of Adam and Eve and the nature of

00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:22.600
man.

00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:34.279
Let me go back here

00:11:34.279 --> 00:11:37.279
first. Give it a little headway here.

00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:40.600
Uh, Adam and Eve have already

00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:43.839
sinned and they've been expelled from

00:11:43.839 --> 00:11:46.000
the

00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:48.720
garden. And so what we're going to look

00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:51.120
at now

00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:52.800
[Music]

00:11:52.800 --> 00:11:56.640
How sin came into the world?

00:11:56.640 --> 00:11:59.279
Well, sin came into the world by one man

00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:00.680
which was

00:12:00.680 --> 00:12:04.399
Adam. He broke God's commandment and he

00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:06.160
ate of the tree of good and evil in the

00:12:06.160 --> 00:12:07.680
midst of the garden that God told him

00:12:07.680 --> 00:12:13.600
not to partake of. And we find these

00:12:14.920 --> 00:12:18.000
words Romans 5:12.

00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:20.839
Wherefore, as by one

00:12:20.839 --> 00:12:24.720
man sin entered into the world, and

00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:27.360
death by sin. And so death passed upon

00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:30.480
all men, for that all have sinned. Let

00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:33.079
me read this again. This is very

00:12:33.079 --> 00:12:35.680
important. You can't change what God

00:12:35.680 --> 00:12:37.240
what God

00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:41.120
says. Romans 5:12.

00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:44.279
Wherefore as by one

00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:48.560
man sin entered into the world by one

00:12:48.560 --> 00:12:50.120
man.

00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:53.360
Period. And death by sin. And so death

00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:56.600
passed up on all men. For that all have

00:12:56.600 --> 00:12:58.360
sinned.

00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:01.240
Likeness produces

00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:04.800
likeness. Um I guess uh I think I got it

00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:08.079
written down.

00:13:08.079 --> 00:13:11.920
In other words, you get a female uh uh

00:13:11.920 --> 00:13:15.680
buffalo and and and a male buffalo. Uh

00:13:15.680 --> 00:13:18.440
they're going to bring in another

00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:20.480
buffalo. You ain't going to get no

00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:23.680
giraffe for anything

00:13:23.720 --> 00:13:28.320
else. God made female and male animal

00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:30.800
species. And now we're going to get into

00:13:30.800 --> 00:13:33.920
uh Adam and

00:13:34.760 --> 00:13:38.959
Eve still dealing with sin. James 1:12

00:13:38.959 --> 00:13:41.920
says, "Blessed is a man that endureth

00:13:41.920 --> 00:13:44.720
temptation or trial." That word it can

00:13:44.720 --> 00:13:47.880
be true. For when he is

00:13:47.880 --> 00:13:50.880
tried,

00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:55.040
he left out a word here. shall he shall

00:13:55.040 --> 00:13:57.760
receive the crown of life which the Lord

00:13:57.760 --> 00:14:00.560
had promised to them that love him. So

00:14:00.560 --> 00:14:02.839
the man that endures

00:14:02.839 --> 00:14:06.000
trial, he's going to receive the crown

00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:08.320
of life. You know anybody that's already

00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:10.040
received the crown of

00:14:10.040 --> 00:14:12.760
life because he endured all the

00:14:12.760 --> 00:14:15.360
temptations? I'm pretty sure you do. The

00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:18.160
Lord Jesus

00:14:18.839 --> 00:14:21.760
Christ. Let no man say when he is

00:14:21.760 --> 00:14:24.880
tempted, I am tempted of God. For God

00:14:24.880 --> 00:14:28.079
cannot be tempted with evil, neither

00:14:28.079 --> 00:14:31.920
tempts he any man. But every man is

00:14:31.920 --> 00:14:34.519
tempted when he is drawn away of his own

00:14:34.519 --> 00:14:36.279
lust and

00:14:36.279 --> 00:14:39.519
enticed. Then when lust has conceived,

00:14:39.519 --> 00:14:42.480
it brings forth sin. And sin when it is

00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:45.360
finished brings forth death. And that's

00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:50.920
exactly what happened with uh Adam and

00:14:50.920 --> 00:14:53.600
Eve. Every man is tempted when he is

00:14:53.600 --> 00:14:56.800
drawn away of his own lust. And that's

00:14:56.800 --> 00:15:02.639
uh in uh Genesis chapter three. Um the

00:15:02.639 --> 00:15:06.680
serpent uh uh and Titus uh

00:15:06.680 --> 00:15:09.760
be and Eve when God asked Eve what did

00:15:09.760 --> 00:15:12.639
she do? He said, she said, "The serpent

00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:18.480
begal me and and I and I did eat."

00:15:19.480 --> 00:15:24.160
Um, once the salt enters your mind, then

00:15:24.160 --> 00:15:27.680
you act upon it, then it's sin. Then

00:15:27.680 --> 00:15:30.560
when lust has conceived, in other words,

00:15:30.560 --> 00:15:33.800
whatever it is that you're lusting

00:15:33.800 --> 00:15:38.000
after, and you bring it to your body,

00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:41.760
into your mind, and commit that act, it

00:15:41.760 --> 00:15:43.320
brings forth

00:15:43.320 --> 00:15:47.880
sin. That's Isn't it a beautiful

00:15:47.880 --> 00:15:53.120
picture that the fruit saw the fruit and

00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:55.000
when she

00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:58.000
saw it was a delight. She brought it

00:15:58.000 --> 00:15:59.759
forth and she ate. She gave it to her

00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:03.120
husband also. Now it brings forth sin

00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:05.120
because she conceived it unto the self.

00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:08.480
And sin when it is finished brings forth

00:16:08.480 --> 00:16:11.040
death.

00:16:16.160 --> 00:16:20.600
And now first John chapter 2 16-1

00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:24.959
17 for all that is in the world the lust

00:16:24.959 --> 00:16:27.519
of the flesh there it is and the lust of

00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:29.600
the eyes and the pride of life is not of

00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:33.360
the father but is of the world and the

00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:35.759
world passes away and the lust there but

00:16:35.759 --> 00:16:37.839
he that doeth the will of God abideth

00:16:37.839 --> 00:16:39.360
forever.

00:16:39.360 --> 00:16:40.959
the things that are out there in that

00:16:40.959 --> 00:16:43.519
world. You don't need me to tell you.

00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:46.279
Yeah. I was out there

00:16:46.279 --> 00:16:48.720
lusting, trying to get the mega bucks

00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:51.360
and so forth and trying to be a

00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:54.560
superstar with my music and so forth.

00:16:54.560 --> 00:16:56.959
And that's what I was lusting after when

00:16:56.959 --> 00:16:59.839
I was out there in that world and my

00:16:59.839 --> 00:17:02.480
music. Oh, I was pride took pride in my

00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:06.240
music. I had my own band and uh taught

00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:09.120
quite a few celebrities out there. Uh

00:17:09.120 --> 00:17:12.000
played with them. But anyway, I'm just

00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:14.520
trying trying to bring this

00:17:14.520 --> 00:17:18.079
out, but I'm not into it now. Gave it up

00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:18.839
in

00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:22.079
1978. But

00:17:22.520 --> 00:17:25.760
anyway, these things is not of the

00:17:25.760 --> 00:17:27.679
father. Lust the flesh, lust of the

00:17:27.679 --> 00:17:29.600
eyes, the pride of light. It's not of

00:17:29.600 --> 00:17:33.440
the father, but is of the world.

00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:35.919
And so when it said these things are in

00:17:35.919 --> 00:17:37.679
the world, it's talking about man

00:17:37.679 --> 00:17:42.640
because his man is the one who has these

00:17:42.679 --> 00:17:46.480
things. All human beings, all human

00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:47.480
beings

00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:50.559
have these three, these three lusts,

00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:53.000
these two lusts and and the pride of

00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:57.120
life. The lust of the flesh. We desire

00:17:57.120 --> 00:18:00.000
things for our flesh, whether it's

00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:03.120
eating food or it could be other lustful

00:18:03.120 --> 00:18:05.080
things too. We won't have to go into

00:18:05.080 --> 00:18:09.360
that. And the lust of the eyes, we see

00:18:09.360 --> 00:18:12.799
this, I want that. And things that don't

00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:14.720
belong to us. It might belong to

00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:15.960
somebody

00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:21.760
else. And uh pride of life. Oh. Uh I

00:18:21.760 --> 00:18:23.600
heard you only been to the fifth grade

00:18:23.600 --> 00:18:27.720
there, Richard. Oh well, I I went to

00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:30.400
Harvard, pride of life, that's man. I

00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:33.600
got a PhD behind my name. All those

00:18:33.600 --> 00:18:37.440
three things is in all

00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:39.840
mankind. And these things are of the

00:18:39.840 --> 00:18:42.400
world, but is of the world. It's not of

00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:44.880
the father, but is of the world. And the

00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:48.720
world passes away, and the lust there,

00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:51.000
but he that doeth the will of God abided

00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:54.799
forever. The world's going to pass away.

00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:56.960
Well, what's in the world? The lust of

00:18:56.960 --> 00:18:59.120
the

00:19:00.919 --> 00:19:04.160
flesh. Okay. The things that are in the

00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:06.480
world is what human beings have. The

00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:08.039
lust of the

00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:10.320
flesh. Lust of the eyes and pride of

00:19:10.320 --> 00:19:13.120
life. That's what's in in the world. And

00:19:13.120 --> 00:19:14.960
if you lusting for the things in the

00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:17.520
world, the world is going to pass away.

00:19:17.520 --> 00:19:19.440
And those who lust for the things in the

00:19:19.440 --> 00:19:21.360
world going to pass away right along

00:19:21.360 --> 00:19:24.320
with it. and the lust thereof. But he

00:19:24.320 --> 00:19:25.919
that doeth the will of God abideth

00:19:25.919 --> 00:19:28.080
forever. Let me read that again. Those

00:19:28.080 --> 00:19:30.960
three things is not of the father but is

00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:33.080
of the but is of the

00:19:33.080 --> 00:19:36.799
world. What's going on here? I lost my

00:19:36.799 --> 00:19:38.510
mouse.

00:19:38.510 --> 00:19:41.710
[Music]

00:19:45.320 --> 00:19:48.500
[Music]

00:19:53.600 --> 00:19:55.720
Okay, I don't need the mouse anyway.

00:19:55.720 --> 00:19:58.760
Okay, Genesis 1:26 and

00:19:58.760 --> 00:20:05.400
27 speaks of man andh and uh uh

00:20:05.400 --> 00:20:08.679
Eve, Adam and Eve being made in the

00:20:08.679 --> 00:20:11.679
image. So, we don't have to go through

00:20:11.679 --> 00:20:15.960
that. Genesis 1:26.

00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:28.720
Oh, okay. I hit the button and cut it

00:20:28.720 --> 00:20:30.760
off. Okay.

00:20:30.760 --> 00:20:35.440
Uh, yeah. Uh, Adam and Eve is is uh

00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:37.919
comes on the scene. God were made, man

00:20:37.919 --> 00:20:42.320
is made in the image of God. verse 26 27

00:20:42.320 --> 00:20:44.640
of course the man and the woman are one

00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:47.360
so that places the scripture when it

00:20:47.360 --> 00:20:48.799
talks about man it's talking about the

00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:52.320
woman also man is the instrument through

00:20:52.320 --> 00:20:54.960
which God intends to realize the object

00:20:54.960 --> 00:20:56.280
of

00:20:56.280 --> 00:20:59.760
creation numbers 14:21 his object of

00:20:59.760 --> 00:21:03.440
creation is as truly as I live all the

00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:06.000
earth shall be filled with the glory of

00:21:06.000 --> 00:21:09.919
the Lord this is God's ultimous plan and

00:21:09.919 --> 00:21:12.840
purpose for his

00:21:12.840 --> 00:21:15.760
creation. That one day all the earth is

00:21:15.760 --> 00:21:18.159
going to be filled with his glory. In

00:21:18.159 --> 00:21:19.520
other words, it's going to be filled

00:21:19.520 --> 00:21:21.480
with a glorified

00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:26.000
people that will never be able to sin

00:21:26.919 --> 00:21:29.679
anymore. Giving the honor and praise to

00:21:29.679 --> 00:21:32.080
God,

00:21:32.080 --> 00:21:35.679
eternity won't even be a word.

00:21:35.679 --> 00:21:38.799
No more death. It's Revelations. I think

00:21:38.799 --> 00:21:42.760
it's Revelation 21 6-7. No more

00:21:42.760 --> 00:21:47.200
death, no more sorrow, no more

00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:50.640
pain. Excuse me. Neither shall there be

00:21:50.640 --> 00:21:52.640
any more pain, for the former things are

00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:53.559
passed

00:21:53.559 --> 00:21:56.240
away. And he that sat up on the throne

00:21:56.240 --> 00:21:58.480
said, "Behold, I make all things new."

00:21:58.480 --> 00:22:00.400
And he said unto me, "Write, for these

00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:04.280
words are true and faithful,

00:22:06.080 --> 00:22:09.120
crying and death.

00:22:09.120 --> 00:22:12.679
No more pain.

00:22:13.919 --> 00:22:16.360
It's going to wipe away all

00:22:16.360 --> 00:22:19.919
tears. Can you imagine what the earth is

00:22:19.919 --> 00:22:21.440
going to be like? Well, what's the

00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:24.360
individuals going to be like? I can't

00:22:24.360 --> 00:22:27.280
wait to be a That's what it means to be

00:22:27.280 --> 00:22:30.039
a glorified people.

00:22:30.039 --> 00:22:34.280
Jesus received glory from his

00:22:34.280 --> 00:22:36.960
father. He completed everything that was

00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:41.000
in his in God his

00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:45.880
father sent him to do. He fulfilled

00:22:45.880 --> 00:22:49.919
everything he in fact the father said uh

00:22:49.919 --> 00:22:52.360
this is my beloved son at whom I am well

00:22:52.360 --> 00:22:54.760
pleased. Hear ye

00:22:54.760 --> 00:22:58.400
him. And just in passing, uh, we got to

00:22:58.400 --> 00:22:59.880
listen to

00:22:59.880 --> 00:23:02.919
Jesus, the

00:23:02.919 --> 00:23:05.200
scriptures, we read about him and what

00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:09.039
did he say? And and he was the word made

00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:13.840
flesh. Jesus was a walking

00:23:14.120 --> 00:23:15.960
Bible.

00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:21.440
He nobody could uh they tried to deceive

00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:24.640
him and then uh in all different kind of

00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:29.440
ways. the the um man that had uh seven

00:23:29.440 --> 00:23:32.039
sons and

00:23:32.039 --> 00:23:37.120
uh um the Bible says that if uh uh of

00:23:37.120 --> 00:23:41.760
your brother's uh uh if the if the

00:23:41.760 --> 00:23:45.039
brother dies and leaves his wife that

00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:48.799
his brother is is to take is to take his

00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:53.280
wife so and marry her and preserve seed

00:23:53.280 --> 00:23:55.400
and keep that generation

00:23:55.400 --> 00:24:01.360
going and uh and they the Sadducees who

00:24:01.360 --> 00:24:04.080
don't believe in angels and resurrection

00:24:04.080 --> 00:24:06.000
trumped up this they they didn't even

00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:08.320
believe what they was asking Jesus and

00:24:08.320 --> 00:24:09.559
they

00:24:09.559 --> 00:24:14.000
said so uh the other brother Mary the

00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:16.240
wife he died there were seven of them

00:24:16.240 --> 00:24:19.200
and all seven of had her and they all

00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:22.080
died and then the kingdom uh whose wife

00:24:22.080 --> 00:24:24.880
shall she be and Jesus told them they

00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:25.640
were in

00:24:25.640 --> 00:24:27.919
error. In fact, what he was saying, he

00:24:27.919 --> 00:24:29.919
says, "You don't know your scriptures

00:24:29.919 --> 00:24:32.320
cuz there's no marrying and giving in in

00:24:32.320 --> 00:24:34.799
the kingdom." And then he went on that

00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:38.320
uh you might be familiar with that

00:24:38.320 --> 00:24:40.880
that just came to me. So, but they tried

00:24:40.880 --> 00:24:43.679
to deceive him. He fulfilled everything.

00:24:43.679 --> 00:24:46.880
He was obedient to his father even to

00:24:46.880 --> 00:24:50.679
the death of the cross.

00:24:53.840 --> 00:24:56.440
And uh Genesis

00:24:56.440 --> 00:25:01.400
2:16-25 is the account of uh

00:25:01.400 --> 00:25:07.039
u where uh Adam didn't have a a mate. He

00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:11.400
he didn't have a companion

00:25:12.679 --> 00:25:17.880
u and he said it's not good that the man

00:25:17.880 --> 00:25:22.279
uh should be alone. And he said

00:25:22.279 --> 00:25:26.120
uh I will make him a help meat for

00:25:26.120 --> 00:25:31.240
him. And in verses 18 of that of Genesis

00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:34.400
2, it is not good that the man should be

00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:36.880
alone. I will make him and help me for

00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:41.960
him. So he closed up Adam's

00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:46.480
uh he took from Adam's rib and made the

00:25:46.480 --> 00:25:51.200
woman and he closed uh the incision back

00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:54.400
up close up the side of his side where

00:25:54.400 --> 00:25:57.760
he took the rib and made the woman and

00:25:57.760 --> 00:26:00.159
this is very beautiful the scriptures is

00:26:00.159 --> 00:26:03.200
so poetic and and and I can't think of

00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:04.760
the other word I want to

00:26:04.760 --> 00:26:08.120
use but God's statement Even in the 18th

00:26:08.120 --> 00:26:11.200
verse, it's not good that the man should

00:26:11.200 --> 00:26:13.919
be alone. I'll make him help me. Is

00:26:13.919 --> 00:26:18.080
borne out in the 19th and the 20th

00:26:19.320 --> 00:26:22.360
verses. There was

00:26:22.360 --> 00:26:27.360
no what he brought all the animals to

00:26:27.360 --> 00:26:29.960
see what Adam would call

00:26:29.960 --> 00:26:35.120
them in verse 19 of Genesis 2. Whatever

00:26:35.120 --> 00:26:37.480
Adam named them, that's what their name

00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:40.960
was. And Adam in the verse 20, he gave

00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:43.039
names to all cattle and the father of

00:26:43.039 --> 00:26:45.200
the air and the beast of the field. But

00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:48.159
for Adam, there was not found a help

00:26:48.159 --> 00:26:52.480
meat for him. Verse 20. And the Lord

00:26:52.480 --> 00:26:56.559
caused a a deep sleep to fall upon Adam,

00:26:56.559 --> 00:26:58.559
and he slept. And he took one of his

00:26:58.559 --> 00:27:01.120
ribs and closed up the flesh instead

00:27:01.120 --> 00:27:03.200
thereof.

00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:05.520
And the rib which the Lord God had taken

00:27:05.520 --> 00:27:08.720
from man made he a woman and brought her

00:27:08.720 --> 00:27:11.760
unto the man. And Adam said, "This is

00:27:11.760 --> 00:27:16.240
now now this is now bone of my bones and

00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:18.720
flesh of my flesh. She shall be called

00:27:18.720 --> 00:27:21.960
woman because she was taken out of man."

00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:26.400
Um, and by the way, it says uh he called

00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:30.880
in verse 21 of Genesis 2, he caused Adam

00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:34.919
to go to sleep, put him to

00:27:34.919 --> 00:27:37.640
sleep.

00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:40.799
Um, a lot of individuals say, uh, I've

00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:44.480
heard it said that,

00:27:44.520 --> 00:27:48.240
uh, Adam didn't wasn't afraid of dying

00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:52.400
because he didn't know what death was.

00:27:55.840 --> 00:27:58.799
But the scriptures are so you know man

00:27:58.799 --> 00:28:00.120
tries

00:28:00.120 --> 00:28:02.880
to sidetrack what God says and

00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:07.159
everything but it says in verse

00:28:07.159 --> 00:28:11.880
21 and the Lord God caused a deep

00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:14.360
sleep to fall upon

00:28:14.360 --> 00:28:16.679
Adam. You know

00:28:16.679 --> 00:28:21.720
what? Do you know that uh death is is

00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:24.240
asleep? That's what that's what death is

00:28:24.240 --> 00:28:26.320
all about. People that are dead now that

00:28:26.320 --> 00:28:28.000
have died and in the ground, they don't

00:28:28.000 --> 00:28:30.559
know what's going

00:28:30.600 --> 00:28:34.000
on. The dead don't know anything. But

00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:37.440
that's a subject in itself itself.

00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:39.760
The scripture says that there are going

00:28:39.760 --> 00:28:42.799
to be some that are not going to wake up

00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:45.640
and they're going to sleep a perpetual

00:28:45.640 --> 00:28:49.039
sleep. That means not to awaken. Let me

00:28:49.039 --> 00:28:52.600
and you as Ecclesiastes

00:28:52.600 --> 00:28:56.159
9:5 the living know that they shall die,

00:28:56.159 --> 00:28:58.880
but the dead know not anything. All your

00:28:58.880 --> 00:29:01.520
senses and everything that we feel now

00:29:01.520 --> 00:29:06.159
and so forth no more. uh but that's

00:29:06.159 --> 00:29:07.640
really a study in

00:29:07.640 --> 00:29:11.440
itself. Verses 21 and 24 show the

00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:13.679
process by which the first woman came

00:29:13.679 --> 00:29:14.679
into

00:29:14.679 --> 00:29:17.279
existence. It is interesting to note

00:29:17.279 --> 00:29:19.919
that she was not created directly from

00:29:19.919 --> 00:29:21.799
the dust of the ground as

00:29:21.799 --> 00:29:26.559
Adam but was taken from Adam's

00:29:31.399 --> 00:29:34.640
body. the that relationship we just said

00:29:34.640 --> 00:29:37.919
she she was taken from Adam's body. The

00:29:37.919 --> 00:29:40.480
relationship between Adam and Eve was so

00:29:40.480 --> 00:29:44.000
much more intimate by this creative

00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:46.320
procedure. In other words, she was taken

00:29:46.320 --> 00:29:47.880
from Adam's

00:29:47.880 --> 00:29:51.120
body. So the relationship was a close

00:29:51.120 --> 00:29:54.120
relationship because he came from Adam's

00:29:54.120 --> 00:29:58.080
body. In a symbolic sense, this figure

00:29:58.080 --> 00:30:02.559
is related to Christ and his bride.

00:30:02.559 --> 00:30:04.919
The bride is the body of

00:30:04.919 --> 00:30:09.440
Christ. The bride belongs to Jesus as

00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:12.960
Eve belongs to

00:30:13.240 --> 00:30:17.200
Adam. But anyway, let me go on. In verse

00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:20.720
25 of that chapter, it says he brought

00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:27.240
the woman Eve to Adam and they weren't

00:30:27.240 --> 00:30:30.559
naked. that when when it says they were

00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:32.520
they they weren't

00:30:32.520 --> 00:30:35.120
ashamed, they both were naked and they

00:30:35.120 --> 00:30:38.720
were not ashamed. It says nakedness in

00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:41.880
this verse is synonymous with

00:30:41.880 --> 00:30:45.440
innocency. In other words, Adam and Eve

00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:48.600
were physically and mentally

00:30:48.600 --> 00:30:51.600
mature with a conscience free from the

00:30:51.600 --> 00:30:52.760
knowledge of

00:30:52.760 --> 00:30:55.760
evil. They didn't know what sin was or

00:30:55.760 --> 00:30:58.640
what evil was. didn't know what it was.

00:30:58.640 --> 00:31:01.880
And uh they were

00:31:01.880 --> 00:31:06.039
physically mature and just in passing

00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:08.880
um you've heard that expression what

00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:10.880
came first the chicken or the egg and so

00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:13.679
forth. Well, Adam and Eve were

00:31:13.679 --> 00:31:17.240
physically and mentally

00:31:17.240 --> 00:31:20.320
mature and the scriptures show that they

00:31:20.320 --> 00:31:21.080
had

00:31:21.080 --> 00:31:24.559
children. So, uh without a man and

00:31:24.559 --> 00:31:27.039
woman, you can't have no children.

00:31:27.039 --> 00:31:29.440
And so there's your answer right there.

00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:31.840
God made them ma male and female. That's

00:31:31.840 --> 00:31:34.320
just in

00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:41.440
passing. Now we're going to read about

00:31:41.440 --> 00:31:45.640
we're going to read about Genesis

00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:48.960
3. This is an excer. I'm not going to

00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:51.360
read the whole thing.

00:31:51.360 --> 00:31:52.440
verse

00:31:52.440 --> 00:31:56.880
one uh in Genesis 3. The serpent's power

00:31:56.880 --> 00:32:00.559
to reason was superior to any beast of

00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:04.000
the field which the Lord God had made.

00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:07.440
It also had the power to speak which as

00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:10.480
far as we know was not a characteristic

00:32:10.480 --> 00:32:12.960
possessed by any other creature with the

00:32:12.960 --> 00:32:14.200
exception of

00:32:14.200 --> 00:32:17.200
man. That serpent was the only one that

00:32:17.200 --> 00:32:20.080
was able to speak. And uh of course you

00:32:20.080 --> 00:32:23.519
have the skeptics

00:32:25.159 --> 00:32:28.559
saying the serpent spoke of the snake

00:32:28.559 --> 00:32:31.200
smoke and so forth. You got man teaching

00:32:31.200 --> 00:32:34.000
parrots out here how to talk. Polly want

00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:37.320
a cracker and all that but

00:32:37.320 --> 00:32:42.320
uh can't box God in. Nothing is too hard

00:32:42.320 --> 00:32:46.080
uh for for for God.

00:32:46.080 --> 00:32:49.360
The test of Adam and Eve was introduced

00:32:49.360 --> 00:32:52.760
by the insinuations of the

00:32:52.760 --> 00:32:56.360
serpent. That serpent was there to test

00:32:56.360 --> 00:33:00.760
them. Paul points out in 1 Timothy

00:33:00.760 --> 00:33:03.519
2:14 that the temptation was to present

00:33:03.519 --> 00:33:07.200
it to Eve who was more vulnerable to the

00:33:07.200 --> 00:33:09.519
serpent's suggestions. So you have to go

00:33:09.519 --> 00:33:12.559
back and you read 1 Timothy 2:14 and

00:33:12.559 --> 00:33:15.399
Paul gives you a

00:33:15.399 --> 00:33:20.159
upkeep of why the s uh the scripture

00:33:20.159 --> 00:33:25.080
says that he was more vulnerable.

00:33:25.760 --> 00:33:28.399
Still in Genesis chapter 3 in the 15th

00:33:28.399 --> 00:33:31.600
verse of Genesis 3, the principle of

00:33:31.600 --> 00:33:36.320
God's love and concern is shown in his

00:33:36.320 --> 00:33:38.480
provision for the redemption of our

00:33:38.480 --> 00:33:39.559
first

00:33:39.559 --> 00:33:42.000
parents. This is a key verse and we

00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:44.200
cannot overemphasize its

00:33:44.200 --> 00:33:48.799
importance. The seed is Jesus, the lamb

00:33:48.799 --> 00:33:51.279
of God slain prophetically from the

00:33:51.279 --> 00:33:56.240
foundation of the world. In Genesis

00:33:59.000 --> 00:34:02.159
3:15, it says after they sin and

00:34:02.159 --> 00:34:05.279
everything and God asked Adam what he

00:34:05.279 --> 00:34:08.639
did and Adam told the truth and he asked

00:34:08.639 --> 00:34:11.679
Eve what she did, she told the truth,

00:34:11.679 --> 00:34:14.159
but he didn't ask the serpent. He didn't

00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:16.320
ask him no questions at all. He just

00:34:16.320 --> 00:34:19.839
pronounced a sentence up on him. Uh in

00:34:19.839 --> 00:34:23.280
verse 14 of Genesis 3, the Lord God said

00:34:23.280 --> 00:34:25.679
unto the serpent, because thou has done

00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:28.800
this, thou cursed above all cattle, and

00:34:28.800 --> 00:34:30.879
above every beast of the field, upon thy

00:34:30.879 --> 00:34:33.520
belly shalt thou go, and thus shalt thou

00:34:33.520 --> 00:34:36.159
eat all the days of thy life. And

00:34:36.159 --> 00:34:39.679
continue, here's the key verse here. And

00:34:39.679 --> 00:34:43.599
I will put enmity or hatred or hostility

00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:45.839
between thee and the woman, and between

00:34:45.839 --> 00:34:48.800
thy seed and her seed. It shall bruise

00:34:48.800 --> 00:34:53.440
thy head and thou shall abuse his

00:34:53.879 --> 00:34:56.200
heel. Verse 15

00:34:56.200 --> 00:34:59.359
again, God is going to put between the

00:34:59.359 --> 00:35:02.079
seed of the serpent. The seed, the

00:35:02.079 --> 00:35:04.760
serpent represents human

00:35:04.760 --> 00:35:06.839
thinking, human

00:35:06.839 --> 00:35:09.400
nature. And the seed of the

00:35:09.400 --> 00:35:12.160
woman is pointed to the Lord Jesus

00:35:12.160 --> 00:35:15.520
Christ, the godly seed. So there's two

00:35:15.520 --> 00:35:18.359
seeds here. the

00:35:18.359 --> 00:35:21.200
serpent and the seed of the woman which

00:35:21.200 --> 00:35:23.599
is pointing to the Lord Jesus Christ.

00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:25.880
And I'll bring some other verses

00:35:25.880 --> 00:35:28.720
out. In fact, I'll just dwell up on it

00:35:28.720 --> 00:35:29.480
right

00:35:29.480 --> 00:35:34.280
now. Um or I'm going to come to it

00:35:34.280 --> 00:35:35.880
anyway.

00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:41.440
Um the seed is is Jesus in in and uh

00:35:41.440 --> 00:35:44.359
3:15 of of

00:35:44.359 --> 00:35:47.599
Genesis. The lamb, deceased is Jesus,

00:35:47.599 --> 00:35:50.079
the lamb of God, slain prophetically

00:35:50.079 --> 00:35:52.320
from the foundation of the world. Let's

00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:54.240
see what that's talking about. From the

00:35:54.240 --> 00:35:56.240
foundation of the world, there was

00:35:56.240 --> 00:36:01.040
something slain. Something was

00:36:01.700 --> 00:36:04.440
[Music]

00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:07.440
killed.

00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:15.160
Okay. Back to uh uh chapter 3.

00:36:15.760 --> 00:36:18.480
They hid

00:36:19.640 --> 00:36:22.240
themselves and and and and sold

00:36:22.240 --> 00:36:25.880
themselves fig leaves together. They

00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:30.720
did. That's in verse seven of Genesis 3.

00:36:30.720 --> 00:36:32.400
They knew that they were naked and they

00:36:32.400 --> 00:36:34.000
sewed fig leaves together and made

00:36:34.000 --> 00:36:36.040
themselves

00:36:36.040 --> 00:36:38.880
aprons. Then after they told the truth,

00:36:38.880 --> 00:36:41.520
it says

00:36:45.640 --> 00:36:49.960
God, he clothed them with

00:36:49.960 --> 00:36:54.720
skins. Verse 21 of Genesis 3.

00:36:54.720 --> 00:36:57.119
Unto Adam also and to his wife did the

00:36:57.119 --> 00:37:00.200
Lord God make coats of skins and clothe

00:37:00.200 --> 00:37:03.200
them.

00:37:06.359 --> 00:37:09.640
Uh where did he get get the scans

00:37:09.640 --> 00:37:14.880
from? I think I got that. U let me see

00:37:16.440 --> 00:37:19.920
here. Yeah. Okay. Let me go back here

00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:21.800
here

00:37:21.800 --> 00:37:24.720
first. Okay. It is obvious that this

00:37:24.720 --> 00:37:27.560
position by God was not an

00:37:27.560 --> 00:37:30.240
expediency to take care of an unforeseen

00:37:30.240 --> 00:37:33.359
event. Jesus was the nucleus of the plan

00:37:33.359 --> 00:37:35.440
of God before creation. Let me slow down

00:37:35.440 --> 00:37:37.920
here a little

00:37:39.160 --> 00:37:43.280
bit. God had already

00:37:43.480 --> 00:37:45.640
provided. Let me make

00:37:45.640 --> 00:37:49.640
sure. Okay.

00:37:52.400 --> 00:37:55.400
Okay,

00:37:56.960 --> 00:38:00.520
God already knew that Adam was going to

00:38:00.520 --> 00:38:03.359
sin and he already had prepared

00:38:03.359 --> 00:38:05.680
everything. And as we go along, you'll

00:38:05.680 --> 00:38:08.960
see that the result of Adam and Eve's

00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:13.440
disobedience is clearly stated in this

00:38:13.480 --> 00:38:16.560
chapter. The disobedience, we know they

00:38:16.560 --> 00:38:19.040
disobeyed. She ate and she gave her

00:38:19.040 --> 00:38:22.119
husband that was with

00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:26.119
her. That's shown in in in uh uh Genesis

00:38:26.119 --> 00:38:28.800
3. Their return to the dust of the

00:38:28.800 --> 00:38:31.280
ground was not a matter of sentence as

00:38:31.280 --> 00:38:33.560
light produces

00:38:33.560 --> 00:38:36.320
light. God pronounced the dust sent from

00:38:36.320 --> 00:38:38.800
dust you are Adam and dust you shall

00:38:38.800 --> 00:38:41.440
return.

00:38:41.440 --> 00:38:44.400
So their posterity or their seed and the

00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:46.720
children after them would also follow

00:38:46.720 --> 00:38:49.079
the course of their

00:38:49.079 --> 00:38:51.800
nature. In other

00:38:51.800 --> 00:38:56.320
words, we are mankind is the mother and

00:38:56.320 --> 00:38:59.040
father of all human beings is Adam and

00:38:59.040 --> 00:39:04.200
Eve. And now we've inherited the same

00:39:04.200 --> 00:39:08.400
nature that we we have the desire to see

00:39:08.400 --> 00:39:11.280
to eat and so forth and all those things

00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:13.359
uh the three the lust of the eyes lust

00:39:13.359 --> 00:39:15.359
of the flesh and the pride of life all

00:39:15.359 --> 00:39:17.680
human being have those things because

00:39:17.680 --> 00:39:21.520
that's what Adam and Eve brought in. And

00:39:21.520 --> 00:39:23.839
so their children also would have the

00:39:23.839 --> 00:39:28.880
same nature. And it says hope for escape

00:39:28.880 --> 00:39:31.320
from this

00:39:31.320 --> 00:39:34.320
dilemma.

00:39:34.520 --> 00:39:38.320
Boy, hope for escape from this dilemma

00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:41.280
could only come from their creator. In

00:39:41.280 --> 00:39:42.680
other words, they were

00:39:42.680 --> 00:39:45.920
dying. And they had to because God is

00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:51.960
true to his word. But he also provided

00:39:53.359 --> 00:39:56.880
in a marvelous beautiful way that there

00:39:56.880 --> 00:39:59.280
he he for he's already prepared

00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:01.960
everything already

00:40:01.960 --> 00:40:05.599
known Acts 15:18 says known unto God of

00:40:05.599 --> 00:40:08.160
all his works from the beginning of the

00:40:08.160 --> 00:40:10.160
world he already knows how everything is

00:40:10.160 --> 00:40:13.320
going to end from the beginning of his

00:40:13.320 --> 00:40:16.800
creation and and his forgiveness that it

00:40:16.800 --> 00:40:19.040
would come is revealed in a marvelous

00:40:19.040 --> 00:40:20.160
manner

00:40:20.160 --> 00:40:23.520
The clear indication of God's love is

00:40:23.520 --> 00:40:27.040
illustrated in the 21st

00:40:29.079 --> 00:40:33.200
verse. Unto Adam also and to his wife

00:40:33.200 --> 00:40:36.320
did the Lord God make coats of skins and

00:40:36.320 --> 00:40:40.119
he clothed them. Verse 21 of Genesis

00:40:40.119 --> 00:40:44.200
3. The provision of coats of

00:40:44.200 --> 00:40:49.119
skins required the shedding of blood.

00:40:49.119 --> 00:40:51.359
on the Bible principle that without the

00:40:51.359 --> 00:40:53.920
shedding of blood there is no remission

00:40:53.920 --> 00:40:57.079
of sin. Hebrews 9:22. Let me back

00:40:57.079 --> 00:41:00.000
up. What did the coat of skins come to

00:41:00.000 --> 00:41:03.200
him? What did he get? What did God have

00:41:03.200 --> 00:41:07.280
to do in order to get coats of skins?

00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:09.480
What do we get our clothes

00:41:09.480 --> 00:41:14.880
from? Animals. Yes. He God had to kill a

00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:17.839
slay an animal and he shed shed the

00:41:17.839 --> 00:41:21.880
blood of an animal and on the Bible

00:41:21.880 --> 00:41:24.400
principle that without the shedding of

00:41:24.400 --> 00:41:27.119
blood there is no shedding of sins. This

00:41:27.119 --> 00:41:31.119
is symbolic language of

00:41:31.400 --> 00:41:34.800
Christ a shed is pointing to the Lord

00:41:34.800 --> 00:41:37.760
Jesus Christ. that animal. What type of

00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:39.880
animal do you think that

00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:42.520
was that God had to

00:41:42.520 --> 00:41:46.240
slay and in the shed his blood? It's

00:41:46.240 --> 00:41:48.560
representing the Lord Jesus Christ. Look

00:41:48.560 --> 00:41:51.680
at how beautiful this

00:41:52.440 --> 00:41:58.079
is. Uh let me back up a little bit

00:41:59.240 --> 00:42:04.720
here. Yeah. on the he uh uh Hebrews 9:22

00:42:04.720 --> 00:42:06.760
when you get a chance read

00:42:06.760 --> 00:42:10.400
that without the shedding of blood there

00:42:10.400 --> 00:42:14.079
can be no redemption remission of sins

00:42:14.079 --> 00:42:16.040
no forgiveness of

00:42:16.040 --> 00:42:19.400
sins who shed his

00:42:19.400 --> 00:42:24.280
blood that we could be uh

00:42:24.280 --> 00:42:29.200
uh out of the the death sentence.

00:42:29.200 --> 00:42:30.960
Adam, if you break my commandments,

00:42:30.960 --> 00:42:32.680
you're going to

00:42:32.680 --> 00:42:35.880
die. And that man's been dying ever

00:42:35.880 --> 00:42:38.960
since. And just in passing, serpent said

00:42:38.960 --> 00:42:41.359
to you shall not surely die. That's the

00:42:41.359 --> 00:42:43.200
same lie that's been preached today.

00:42:43.200 --> 00:42:45.520
Now, some saying, "Oh, we don't know

00:42:45.520 --> 00:42:48.040
really die. The body dies, but the inner

00:42:48.040 --> 00:42:51.760
part, the soul that keeps on living."

00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:53.440
And so, but anyway, I don't want to get

00:42:53.440 --> 00:42:55.760
too stretched out too far on this here,

00:42:55.760 --> 00:42:58.760
but

00:42:59.680 --> 00:43:02.440
um let's see if I got that written down

00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:05.440
here.

00:43:05.880 --> 00:43:08.960
Uh no, I don't have it written down, but

00:43:08.960 --> 00:43:12.599
uh I'm going to give it to you

00:43:12.599 --> 00:43:17.839
anyway. Okay. that uh it was a lamb that

00:43:17.839 --> 00:43:19.560
God

00:43:19.560 --> 00:43:22.640
slew. And Revelation brings it out and

00:43:22.640 --> 00:43:25.480
so does uh uh

00:43:25.480 --> 00:43:30.440
um John the Baptist brings it out.

00:43:30.440 --> 00:43:33.839
Uh here it

00:43:36.760 --> 00:43:41.119
is. Here it is. uh John's man record

00:43:41.119 --> 00:43:42.760
that

00:43:42.760 --> 00:43:46.480
uh when Jesus was he baptized them and

00:43:46.480 --> 00:43:48.720
so forth. See, he said he didn't know

00:43:48.720 --> 00:43:52.079
who he was. But God had revealed to John

00:43:52.079 --> 00:43:54.480
the Baptist, whoever you see the spirit,

00:43:54.480 --> 00:43:58.000
his holy spirit coming up up and

00:43:58.000 --> 00:44:03.040
remaining on that person, that's my son.

00:44:03.040 --> 00:44:09.680
And and it says and the image of a of a

00:44:10.440 --> 00:44:14.240
dove which represents peace and the Holy

00:44:14.240 --> 00:44:16.480
Spirit came over Jesus when he came up

00:44:16.480 --> 00:44:18.720
out of that water and that's when God

00:44:18.720 --> 00:44:21.440
said this is my beloved son in whom I am

00:44:21.440 --> 00:44:26.480
well pleased and John says these

00:44:28.359 --> 00:44:31.760
words and I saw and bear record that

00:44:31.760 --> 00:44:34.880
this is the son of God. Again, the next

00:44:34.880 --> 00:44:37.880
day after John stood and two of his

00:44:37.880 --> 00:44:40.800
disciples and looking up on Jesus as he

00:44:40.800 --> 00:44:43.440
walked, he said, "Behold the lamb of

00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:45.560
God."

00:44:45.560 --> 00:44:47.800
And it's here

00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:52.680
somewhere also where it says

00:45:00.520 --> 00:45:03.520
uh I think revel Oh, it says it's in

00:45:03.520 --> 00:45:05.480
revelation. That's Yeah, that's it's in

00:45:05.480 --> 00:45:08.480
Revelation. It says the lamb slain from

00:45:08.480 --> 00:45:11.359
the foundation of the world.

00:45:11.359 --> 00:45:14.520
So that animal that God

00:45:14.520 --> 00:45:16.200
slew

00:45:16.200 --> 00:45:18.560
represents pointing to the Lord Jesus

00:45:18.560 --> 00:45:23.280
Christ who shed his blood. Uh is it's

00:45:23.280 --> 00:45:25.920
really a study in itself but I just gave

00:45:25.920 --> 00:45:27.160
you just a little

00:45:27.160 --> 00:45:31.440
bit an observation in conclusion. It is

00:45:31.440 --> 00:45:35.440
evident that God intended man to live.

00:45:35.440 --> 00:45:38.880
Man being created in God's image had a

00:45:38.880 --> 00:45:41.760
prophetic connotation and indication

00:45:41.760 --> 00:45:44.480
that he intended to endow him with his

00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:46.359
own

00:45:46.359 --> 00:45:51.280
nature. God endowed to endow mankind

00:45:51.280 --> 00:45:56.640
with his nature which is is God's glory

00:45:56.640 --> 00:45:59.560
a glorious body like Jesus's body. But

00:45:59.560 --> 00:46:03.280
anyway, this was man's potential and the

00:46:03.280 --> 00:46:05.760
disobedience of Adam and Eve would not

00:46:05.760 --> 00:46:09.040
change or frustrate the intent and

00:46:09.040 --> 00:46:10.520
purpose of the

00:46:10.520 --> 00:46:13.440
creator. God's honor and dignity

00:46:13.440 --> 00:46:16.480
demanded the execution of the sentence,

00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:17.560
you shall

00:46:17.560 --> 00:46:20.720
die. But his love supplied the only

00:46:20.720 --> 00:46:22.599
remedy and the

00:46:22.599 --> 00:46:25.440
redeemer. Here in the very beginning of

00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:28.079
human history, we see the first

00:46:28.079 --> 00:46:30.960
demonstration of the divine principle.

00:46:30.960 --> 00:46:32.440
God is

00:46:32.440 --> 00:46:37.800
love. He provided that lamb which was

00:46:37.800 --> 00:46:40.400
appointed slain from the foundation of

00:46:40.400 --> 00:46:42.960
the world in the in the beginning of his

00:46:42.960 --> 00:46:45.040
creation and everything pointed to the

00:46:45.040 --> 00:46:47.200
Lord Jesus Christ. He had already

00:46:47.200 --> 00:46:50.560
prepared a way for man to live because

00:46:50.560 --> 00:46:53.200
we made in his image. That's just one

00:46:53.200 --> 00:46:54.599
aspect of

00:46:54.599 --> 00:46:58.359
it. And if you can bring that down to

00:46:58.359 --> 00:47:00.880
ours, when we bring our children into

00:47:00.880 --> 00:47:02.839
the

00:47:02.839 --> 00:47:05.839
world, as much as can be said, we love

00:47:05.839 --> 00:47:08.480
them and then we want them to be like

00:47:08.480 --> 00:47:11.040
us. Well, they are like us. Just a

00:47:11.040 --> 00:47:13.280
matter until they grow up and and then

00:47:13.280 --> 00:47:16.520
they really see it. But anyway,

00:47:16.520 --> 00:47:20.960
um it's just like us. We want we want

00:47:20.960 --> 00:47:22.960
the best for our children and God wants

00:47:22.960 --> 00:47:27.119
the best and he knows as our father if

00:47:27.119 --> 00:47:29.040
we are in a covenant relationship with

00:47:29.040 --> 00:47:31.839
him can't call him our father if you if

00:47:31.839 --> 00:47:36.319
we are not uh baptized into that gospel

00:47:36.319 --> 00:47:39.240
and that gospel covers quite a

00:47:39.240 --> 00:47:42.319
bit it does if you don't know the gospel

00:47:42.319 --> 00:47:43.920
that was before preach the faith with

00:47:43.920 --> 00:47:46.560
Abraham the scripture says you're not in

00:47:46.560 --> 00:47:49.359
the covenant relationship with God

00:47:49.359 --> 00:47:52.720
If you don't believe the same gospel

00:47:52.720 --> 00:47:55.680
that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, Rebecca,

00:47:55.680 --> 00:47:59.040
and Leah, and Rael, and and and Hannah,

00:47:59.040 --> 00:48:02.400
and all those believe, you can't be a

00:48:02.400 --> 00:48:05.599
part of God's family. I'm not that's not

00:48:05.599 --> 00:48:08.040
mean my

00:48:08.040 --> 00:48:11.599
opinion. Those who worship God must

00:48:11.599 --> 00:48:14.319
worship him in spirit and in truth. And

00:48:14.319 --> 00:48:18.920
there's no lie of God's truth.

00:48:21.760 --> 00:48:24.160
Okay, going to come to lesson four here

00:48:24.160 --> 00:48:26.400
now. But I'm g give you a little upkeep.

00:48:26.400 --> 00:48:27.960
Now we got

00:48:27.960 --> 00:48:30.760
the Adam and

00:48:30.760 --> 00:48:33.240
Eve going to have

00:48:33.240 --> 00:48:35.920
children. That's because God told him in

00:48:35.920 --> 00:48:37.760
the very beginning he said be fruitful

00:48:37.760 --> 00:48:40.000
and multiply. The children belong to

00:48:40.000 --> 00:48:42.880
God. Psalms 127. You get a chance to

00:48:42.880 --> 00:48:45.920
read that. Psalms 127 verse3 I think it

00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:47.240
is.

00:48:47.240 --> 00:48:51.119
But here's the picture. God created man

00:48:51.119 --> 00:48:52.280
in his

00:48:52.280 --> 00:48:54.480
image. He said, "Be fruitful and

00:48:54.480 --> 00:48:56.440
multiply and fill the

00:48:56.440 --> 00:48:59.440
earth." He didn't say just have children

00:48:59.440 --> 00:49:03.520
and uh for man's pleasure. Said because

00:49:03.520 --> 00:49:05.760
the children everything belongs to God.

00:49:05.760 --> 00:49:08.559
And he said the children are his. God

00:49:08.559 --> 00:49:11.440
says that we brought nothing into the

00:49:11.440 --> 00:49:13.280
world and we sure ain't going to take

00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:15.079
nothing

00:49:15.079 --> 00:49:18.160
out unless it's the gospel and we're in

00:49:18.160 --> 00:49:19.760
a covenant relationship. That's a

00:49:19.760 --> 00:49:24.200
different uh era. But

00:49:24.200 --> 00:49:26.440
um

00:49:26.440 --> 00:49:28.599
so Adam and

00:49:28.599 --> 00:49:30.520
Eve had to

00:49:30.520 --> 00:49:34.960
die but God provided a way for man to

00:49:34.960 --> 00:49:38.760
come back to his grace.

00:49:41.200 --> 00:49:43.920
by his son, the Lord Jesus Christ, which

00:49:43.920 --> 00:49:46.800
came over 5,000 years later. Jesus came

00:49:46.800 --> 00:49:49.559
about 2,000 years.

00:49:49.559 --> 00:49:53.200
Yeah. Two about 2,000 years. But God

00:49:53.200 --> 00:49:54.680
already

00:49:54.680 --> 00:49:59.119
provided a savior, his beloved son for

00:49:59.119 --> 00:50:01.040
mankind.

00:50:01.040 --> 00:50:03.440
So

00:50:04.359 --> 00:50:07.440
now Adam and Eve after they expel from

00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:08.599
the

00:50:08.599 --> 00:50:13.400
garden, they have children, Cain and

00:50:13.400 --> 00:50:17.920
Abel. Cain was disobedient. Even he

00:50:17.920 --> 00:50:19.839
said, "I'll worship God the way I want

00:50:19.839 --> 00:50:23.119
to." The book record shows that he

00:50:23.119 --> 00:50:24.359
offered up a

00:50:24.359 --> 00:50:27.920
sacrifice and God said, "Uh, that's not

00:50:27.920 --> 00:50:30.440
what I commanded you to do. It's not

00:50:30.440 --> 00:50:33.319
acceptable. But he accepted

00:50:33.319 --> 00:50:36.280
Abel's Cain represents the

00:50:36.280 --> 00:50:39.240
serpent, the

00:50:39.240 --> 00:50:42.400
disobedient, the

00:50:43.240 --> 00:50:45.480
savior.

00:50:45.480 --> 00:50:48.760
Um, the seed of the woman represents

00:50:48.760 --> 00:50:53.400
Christ pointed to Christ.

00:50:54.800 --> 00:50:58.720
Um yeah, Abel represents pointing was a

00:50:58.720 --> 00:51:00.960
type of Christ. He was right in God's

00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:03.520
eyes pointing to the Lord Jesus Christ

00:51:03.520 --> 00:51:06.720
and the serpent was a is a

00:51:06.720 --> 00:51:11.599
representative of Cain. So now in every

00:51:13.960 --> 00:51:15.960
generation times of

00:51:15.960 --> 00:51:20.119
Noah, evil generation, we know about

00:51:20.119 --> 00:51:23.040
that, the flood.

00:51:23.040 --> 00:51:24.599
But Noah found

00:51:24.599 --> 00:51:27.839
grace in the eyes of the Lord God. And

00:51:27.839 --> 00:51:30.680
Noah walked with God. It

00:51:30.680 --> 00:51:36.319
says in chapter six uh yeah chapter six

00:51:36.319 --> 00:51:37.480
of of

00:51:37.480 --> 00:51:40.599
Genesis. So now you got

00:51:40.599 --> 00:51:43.319
Noah and God saved

00:51:43.319 --> 00:51:45.880
him the

00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:48.960
ark. He closed the door. He opened the

00:51:48.960 --> 00:51:51.440
door. He told Noah build the ark. After

00:51:51.440 --> 00:51:54.000
he built up, there was one door and one

00:51:54.000 --> 00:51:58.920
one door at the top. The door was in the

00:51:58.920 --> 00:52:02.240
side, the

00:52:02.680 --> 00:52:05.440
angel, the flood's going to come, take

00:52:05.440 --> 00:52:07.440
you and your family in. And he shut them

00:52:07.440 --> 00:52:08.960
in.

00:52:08.960 --> 00:52:10.839
In chapter uh

00:52:10.839 --> 00:52:14.160
seven of

00:52:15.240 --> 00:52:21.640
Genesis, there was one door in that

00:52:21.640 --> 00:52:24.400
ark. And you know what that one who that

00:52:24.400 --> 00:52:28.480
one door represent that John talks about

00:52:28.480 --> 00:52:31.240
about the sheep and they won't listen

00:52:31.240 --> 00:52:35.200
to his other a stranger's voice and so

00:52:35.200 --> 00:52:39.040
forth. And uh and Jes what did Jesus say

00:52:39.040 --> 00:52:40.440
he

00:52:40.440 --> 00:52:44.880
was? The argon only had one door. And

00:52:44.880 --> 00:52:48.000
everybody that went in through that door

00:52:48.000 --> 00:52:49.160
was

00:52:49.160 --> 00:52:51.920
saved. Jesus comes on the scene in John

00:52:51.920 --> 00:52:55.839
10 and he says I am the door. He that

00:52:55.839 --> 00:52:59.200
enters into me shall be saved. It's all

00:52:59.200 --> 00:53:02.319
kind of types in the scriptures. One

00:53:02.319 --> 00:53:04.559
window. Why you think that one window

00:53:04.559 --> 00:53:08.480
was there? And it was at the

00:53:08.599 --> 00:53:11.680
top of the ark. It was only one window

00:53:11.680 --> 00:53:14.079
and one door. Forget about Hollywood

00:53:14.079 --> 00:53:16.319
making all those windows on the side of

00:53:16.319 --> 00:53:18.880
the ark and with the giraffes sticking

00:53:18.880 --> 00:53:20.559
their necks out and all that kind of

00:53:20.559 --> 00:53:23.720
stuff. There was only one door and one

00:53:23.720 --> 00:53:27.040
window. And that window was at the top

00:53:27.040 --> 00:53:30.240
because who's up there dwells above the

00:53:30.240 --> 00:53:31.920
heavens and the heavens? That's where

00:53:31.920 --> 00:53:34.240
your salvation Noah comes from. From

00:53:34.240 --> 00:53:37.119
above, not on the earth. But anyway,

00:53:37.119 --> 00:53:40.319
that's study in itself there too. So now

00:53:40.319 --> 00:53:43.200
every and

00:53:45.000 --> 00:53:48.559
lot you got any individuals

00:53:48.559 --> 00:53:52.160
uh and kin folks in your house lot

00:53:52.160 --> 00:53:53.400
that's in the

00:53:53.400 --> 00:53:56.880
city get them out of go get go go go and

00:53:56.880 --> 00:53:58.880
tell them to get out of there cuz we've

00:53:58.880 --> 00:54:01.400
been sent to destroy this

00:54:01.400 --> 00:54:06.800
place and uh when he went there huh I

00:54:06.800 --> 00:54:09.720
think this book chapter 19 I think it of

00:54:09.720 --> 00:54:13.720
Genesis. Um

00:54:14.680 --> 00:54:16.760
um they

00:54:16.760 --> 00:54:20.319
uh thought he was

00:54:22.040 --> 00:54:24.000
joking. Yeah, they thought he was

00:54:24.000 --> 00:54:27.640
joking. I think it's chapter

00:54:27.640 --> 00:54:31.640
19. Uh

00:54:32.599 --> 00:54:34.760
uh yeah.

00:54:34.760 --> 00:54:38.000
Uh yeah, chapter 19 it is. They came

00:54:38.000 --> 00:54:40.920
told him to get up. And I'm trying to

00:54:40.920 --> 00:54:45.559
paint right straight down to 2025. Every

00:54:45.559 --> 00:54:48.000
generation, God is calling the people

00:54:48.000 --> 00:54:49.559
out for his

00:54:49.559 --> 00:54:51.319
name.

00:54:51.319 --> 00:54:53.720
Generation, generation a

00:54:53.720 --> 00:54:58.760
lot. The time of uh of the prophet

00:54:58.760 --> 00:55:01.200
Samuel and during the time Saul, the

00:55:01.200 --> 00:55:04.640
first king that were dis kings that were

00:55:04.640 --> 00:55:09.720
disobedient. Saul was a a very

00:55:09.720 --> 00:55:13.599
uh disobedient king. He disobeyed God.

00:55:13.599 --> 00:55:16.040
But anyway, I'm just trying to paint a

00:55:16.040 --> 00:55:18.960
picture that generation always going to

00:55:18.960 --> 00:55:21.839
be some individual and every generation

00:55:21.839 --> 00:55:24.880
down to two 2025. God is calling the

00:55:24.880 --> 00:55:28.720
people out. I got two people now that uh

00:55:28.720 --> 00:55:32.720
uh I'm teaching now and and and uh that

00:55:32.720 --> 00:55:36.359
that's a story in itself. But uh and uh

00:55:36.359 --> 00:55:39.280
uh one pro I'm sorry one person I'm

00:55:39.280 --> 00:55:41.680
teaching now. The other one uh didn't

00:55:41.680 --> 00:55:45.119
show up. But anyway, we're doing it on

00:55:45.119 --> 00:55:49.680
on uh Zoom. It's going along really

00:55:49.680 --> 00:55:51.440
good, too. Started right from the

00:55:51.440 --> 00:55:53.640
beginning. But here we are

00:55:53.640 --> 00:55:58.359
2025. Can you get the picture?

00:55:59.520 --> 00:56:01.440
the seed of the serpent and the seed of

00:56:01.440 --> 00:56:05.280
the of the woman, light and darkness,

00:56:05.280 --> 00:56:06.920
good and

00:56:06.920 --> 00:56:11.240
evil. Do not eat of the tree of good and

00:56:11.240 --> 00:56:14.480
evil. You can't worship God doing good

00:56:14.480 --> 00:56:17.359
and evil at the same time. There was

00:56:17.359 --> 00:56:21.280
only one tree, now wasn't two trees.

00:56:21.280 --> 00:56:23.359
There was one tree and the one tree he

00:56:23.359 --> 00:56:27.160
said good and the tree of good and

00:56:27.160 --> 00:56:30.480
evil don't take of that tree. In other

00:56:30.480 --> 00:56:33.920
words, we can't worship God. Well, today

00:56:33.920 --> 00:56:36.720
I'll be good and I see something that I

00:56:36.720 --> 00:56:39.760
want to do. God won't like it, but I

00:56:39.760 --> 00:56:41.920
don't think he'll like it. But you can't

00:56:41.920 --> 00:56:44.640
worship God. You got to worship him in

00:56:44.640 --> 00:56:48.680
spirit and in truth.

00:56:52.640 --> 00:56:55.040
Now we're coming to Adam to Abraham. I'm

00:56:55.040 --> 00:56:57.200
not going to uh probably won't get a

00:56:57.200 --> 00:56:58.640
chance to go through most of this

00:56:58.640 --> 00:57:01.200
anyway, but I I'll start back God

00:57:01.200 --> 00:57:04.359
willingly next week on this. And uh

00:57:04.359 --> 00:57:07.119
uh this lesson is divided in three

00:57:07.119 --> 00:57:08.920
section. It takes us from

00:57:08.920 --> 00:57:12.119
Genesis chapter chapters 4 through

00:57:12.119 --> 00:57:15.200
11. In the period covered by these

00:57:15.200 --> 00:57:16.640
chapter, we find some of the most

00:57:16.640 --> 00:57:19.799
dramatic events in the history of

00:57:19.799 --> 00:57:23.079
mankind. Adam to

00:57:23.079 --> 00:57:26.799
Abraham. Oh, here's Cain and Abel. Okay.

00:57:26.799 --> 00:57:31.160
Cain uh Adam and Eve, their first two

00:57:31.160 --> 00:57:33.599
children. And she conceive Cain. And

00:57:33.599 --> 00:57:36.480
Cain said, "I've gotten a man uh" and

00:57:36.480 --> 00:57:38.920
Eve said, "I've gotten a man from the

00:57:38.920 --> 00:57:41.920
Lord." And she again bears brother Abel

00:57:41.920 --> 00:57:45.359
and so forth. And that's when uh Cain

00:57:45.359 --> 00:57:48.119
slew Abel. Abel

00:57:48.119 --> 00:57:50.480
represents pointed to the seed of the

00:57:50.480 --> 00:57:53.200
woman which is pointed to Christ. Cain

00:57:53.200 --> 00:57:54.760
represents the

00:57:54.760 --> 00:57:57.839
serpent plus of the time they brought

00:57:57.839 --> 00:58:01.200
their offerings. Cain was rejected and

00:58:01.200 --> 00:58:05.119
God received Abel's offering. He brought

00:58:05.119 --> 00:58:06.640
in Genesis 4. I'm just going to

00:58:06.640 --> 00:58:09.920
highlight it. He brought and God had

00:58:09.920 --> 00:58:12.720
respect for Abel and his offer. But unto

00:58:12.720 --> 00:58:15.440
Cain and his office, he had not respect.

00:58:15.440 --> 00:58:17.839
Cain got mad and so forth and he killed

00:58:17.839 --> 00:58:18.250
his

00:58:18.250 --> 00:58:21.469
[Music]

00:58:22.040 --> 00:58:25.599
brother. Cain and Abel. I already but

00:58:25.599 --> 00:58:28.319
I'll say it again. In the first

00:58:28.319 --> 00:58:30.400
reference, we see through the children

00:58:30.400 --> 00:58:33.920
of Adam and Eve, the conflict between

00:58:33.920 --> 00:58:37.119
the seed of the serpent and the seed of

00:58:37.119 --> 00:58:39.440
the woman that would continue through

00:58:39.440 --> 00:58:42.960
history. even right now that the people

00:58:42.960 --> 00:58:45.720
of God uh that

00:58:45.720 --> 00:58:49.440
are Galatia, Corinth and in the in the

00:58:49.440 --> 00:58:50.359
New

00:58:50.359 --> 00:58:53.799
Testament that of God

00:58:53.799 --> 00:58:55.799
supposedly and

00:58:55.799 --> 00:58:59.680
uh there and there was sin going on with

00:58:59.680 --> 00:59:02.839
those who uh

00:59:02.839 --> 00:59:05.520
were were called sons and daughters of

00:59:05.520 --> 00:59:07.280
God.

00:59:07.280 --> 00:59:09.200
But the point I'm bringing out is the

00:59:09.200 --> 00:59:10.680
seed of the

00:59:10.680 --> 00:59:12.760
serpent is

00:59:12.760 --> 00:59:15.520
Cain. The seed of the woman is pointing

00:59:15.520 --> 00:59:19.440
to Christ. And

00:59:19.559 --> 00:59:23.040
uh then this talks about Cain, what he

00:59:23.040 --> 00:59:24.799
did. He was the tiller of the ground.

00:59:24.799 --> 00:59:25.799
Abel

00:59:25.799 --> 00:59:31.839
was uh took care as sheep and so

00:59:32.040 --> 00:59:34.559
forth. But I'll talk about this maybe

00:59:34.559 --> 00:59:35.640
the next

00:59:35.640 --> 00:59:39.440
time. Cain had equal opportunity to do

00:59:39.440 --> 00:59:42.400
what was pleasing in God's sight. But it

00:59:42.400 --> 00:59:44.319
appears he chose to violate the

00:59:44.319 --> 00:59:47.040
principle of sacrifice and put his own

00:59:47.040 --> 00:59:50.480
will before that of the creator. This is

00:59:50.480 --> 00:59:53.760
my will but not your will. God that

00:59:53.760 --> 00:59:58.160
seems like what uh what uh uh Cain had

00:59:58.160 --> 01:00:03.040
done. When God refused Cain sacrifice,

01:00:03.040 --> 01:00:05.240
Cain gave vent. He got

01:00:05.240 --> 01:00:08.880
angry to his rebellious attitude by

01:00:08.880 --> 01:00:11.520
killing his

01:00:12.280 --> 01:00:15.720
brother. In verse

01:00:15.720 --> 01:00:19.440
eight of chapter four in this verse the

01:00:19.440 --> 01:00:21.520
pattern is set which finds his focal

01:00:21.520 --> 01:00:24.440
point and tight at the cross of

01:00:24.440 --> 01:00:28.280
Christ. Cain killed his

01:00:28.280 --> 01:00:31.440
brother. What did they do to Jesus? What

01:00:31.440 --> 01:00:34.960
does Jesus's brothers do to him? We see

01:00:34.960 --> 01:00:36.559
it coming right straight down through

01:00:36.559 --> 01:00:40.359
history as Cain who represents the

01:00:40.359 --> 01:00:44.160
serpent kills the righteous seed Abel.

01:00:44.160 --> 01:00:46.799
When Christ comes on the scene, his

01:00:46.799 --> 01:00:49.640
brothers did the same thing to

01:00:49.640 --> 01:00:53.040
him. The continuation of the seed of the

01:00:53.040 --> 01:00:55.000
woman is shown in verse

01:00:55.000 --> 01:00:59.440
25. God had appointed Eve another son to

01:00:59.440 --> 01:01:01.720
continue her seed instead of

01:01:01.720 --> 01:01:04.720
Abel. Let me turn my speaker back on. I

01:01:04.720 --> 01:01:06.119
don't

01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:09.599
know. God had appointed Eve another son

01:01:09.599 --> 01:01:12.720
to continue her seed instead of Abel.

01:01:12.720 --> 01:01:16.000
She shows her understanding of this by

01:01:16.000 --> 01:01:18.760
choosing for her son the name of Seth

01:01:18.760 --> 01:01:22.559
meaning appointed. Seth means appointed.

01:01:22.559 --> 01:01:25.640
In other words, uh they knew about the

01:01:25.640 --> 01:01:29.839
seed that point to Christ. and and and

01:01:29.839 --> 01:01:30.839
she

01:01:30.839 --> 01:01:34.119
said, "But God has appointed me another

01:01:34.119 --> 01:01:37.960
son." And which and she had she names

01:01:37.960 --> 01:01:40.559
himself, showing her understanding that

01:01:40.559 --> 01:01:45.040
she knew uh about what that she all

01:01:45.040 --> 01:01:46.799
represented.

01:01:46.799 --> 01:01:50.200
uh this is

01:01:51.839 --> 01:01:53.680
well I'm not going to this is just a

01:01:53.680 --> 01:01:57.599
genealogies here. how long uh longevity

01:01:57.599 --> 01:02:00.990
and so forth. Now we come to the the

01:02:00.990 --> 01:02:02.599
[Music]

01:02:02.599 --> 01:02:06.400
flood. Well, we know about the flood. Uh

01:02:06.400 --> 01:02:10.359
oh, I got to point out

01:02:10.440 --> 01:02:13.359
um the intermarriages of the sons of

01:02:13.359 --> 01:02:15.280
God, the seed of the woman and the

01:02:15.280 --> 01:02:17.040
daughters of men, the seed of the

01:02:17.040 --> 01:02:19.680
serpent. In other words, in Genesis 6,

01:02:19.680 --> 01:02:24.839
when the uh the the the sons of

01:02:24.839 --> 01:02:28.119
God departed from

01:02:28.119 --> 01:02:31.960
God because they saw the daughters of

01:02:31.960 --> 01:02:39.760
men and uh the they desired the the

01:02:40.200 --> 01:02:43.480
uh the worldly

01:02:43.480 --> 01:02:45.640
women.

01:02:45.640 --> 01:02:49.760
Um chapter 6.

01:02:51.240 --> 01:02:54.000
Yeah. When the earth started being

01:02:54.000 --> 01:02:58.480
populated. Genesis 6 that verse two that

01:02:58.480 --> 01:03:01.160
the sons of God saw the daughters of

01:03:01.160 --> 01:03:04.000
men that they were fair and took wives

01:03:04.000 --> 01:03:06.480
of all which they saw. When it says that

01:03:06.480 --> 01:03:09.040
they saw the daughters of men, they he's

01:03:09.040 --> 01:03:11.640
talking about those who are

01:03:11.640 --> 01:03:13.960
following who are symbolic of the

01:03:13.960 --> 01:03:16.760
serpent said thank

01:03:16.760 --> 01:03:20.480
you and the Lord. But anyway, we know

01:03:20.480 --> 01:03:24.640
about the flood. Uh and Jesus says the

01:03:24.640 --> 01:03:29.720
same thing in in Matthew 24:37.

01:03:31.359 --> 01:03:33.960
It is evident that in order to save

01:03:33.960 --> 01:03:36.640
humanity, God must terminate a condition

01:03:36.640 --> 01:03:39.760
which had no human

01:03:39.880 --> 01:03:42.839
remedy. Jesus refers to a

01:03:42.839 --> 01:03:45.720
similar condition in Matthew

01:03:45.720 --> 01:03:49.359
24:37 which would exist in the last days

01:03:49.359 --> 01:03:51.440
and can only be corrected by God's

01:03:51.440 --> 01:03:53.280
intervention. In other words, we're

01:03:53.280 --> 01:03:55.680
living in the last days now as it was in

01:03:55.680 --> 01:03:58.160
the days of Noah and the days of Lot

01:03:58.160 --> 01:04:00.799
show to be just before the return of

01:04:00.799 --> 01:04:02.559
Christ comes back to the earth. And

01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:05.520
Christ is at the door. It's a uh he

01:04:05.520 --> 01:04:08.440
could come in any day. Could come any

01:04:08.440 --> 01:04:10.880
day. But the beautiful thing about it,

01:04:10.880 --> 01:04:13.640
God already knows

01:04:13.640 --> 01:04:16.960
those who he's going to uh who's going

01:04:16.960 --> 01:04:22.640
to uh want to worship him. And nobody is

01:04:22.640 --> 01:04:24.680
going to get left

01:04:24.680 --> 01:04:26.880
behind. Nobody's going to get left

01:04:26.880 --> 01:04:29.880
behind.

01:04:32.160 --> 01:04:34.000
And you can see the heel now. You can

01:04:34.000 --> 01:04:36.160
see

01:04:36.280 --> 01:04:40.680
it the the

01:04:41.160 --> 01:04:44.240
uh the Capitol Hill or whatever you want

01:04:44.240 --> 01:04:48.720
to call them, the the uh the uh powers

01:04:48.720 --> 01:04:52.640
of the and those who are in power, Putin

01:04:52.640 --> 01:04:56.960
and and and Trump and and the UK and

01:04:56.960 --> 01:05:01.160
England with Phillip and all them

01:05:01.160 --> 01:05:05.480
and nobody can save

01:05:05.480 --> 01:05:08.480
us. They're trying to do this and and

01:05:08.480 --> 01:05:10.960
they're in division and like it says in

01:05:10.960 --> 01:05:13.119
Luke 21,

01:05:13.119 --> 01:05:17.680
uh there's going to be uh uh they don't

01:05:17.680 --> 01:05:20.200
man don't know what to

01:05:20.200 --> 01:05:23.680
do. They're in

01:05:31.319 --> 01:05:34.160
turmoil. And there shall be signs in the

01:05:34.160 --> 01:05:35.920
sun and then in the moon and in the

01:05:35.920 --> 01:05:38.839
stars and upon the earth distress of

01:05:38.839 --> 01:05:41.760
nations with perplexity the sea and the

01:05:41.760 --> 01:05:43.760
waves waring. When it's talking about

01:05:43.760 --> 01:05:45.440
the seas and the waves waring that's

01:05:45.440 --> 01:05:46.960
talking about the nations it's not

01:05:46.960 --> 01:05:49.839
talking about the uh the the sea the

01:05:49.839 --> 01:05:51.599
waters and everything can't sin against

01:05:51.599 --> 01:05:55.359
God. that those are the symbolicness

01:05:55.359 --> 01:05:57.400
talking about the

01:05:57.400 --> 01:06:00.799
nations the and there should be signs in

01:06:00.799 --> 01:06:03.839
the sun and in the moon and in the star

01:06:03.839 --> 01:06:06.160
it's talking about the political it's

01:06:06.160 --> 01:06:08.000
not talking about the actual sun and the

01:06:08.000 --> 01:06:10.400
stars with blood falling all out and

01:06:10.400 --> 01:06:12.640
everything it's talking about man but

01:06:12.640 --> 01:06:16.119
that's a study in itself

01:06:16.119 --> 01:06:20.640
uh and up uh and in the st and up on the

01:06:20.640 --> 01:06:23.960
earth the stress of nations with

01:06:23.960 --> 01:06:27.039
perplexity. That word perplexity means

01:06:27.039 --> 01:06:32.400
no way out. They don't know what to

01:06:32.680 --> 01:06:35.760
do. Well, we can have peace. Maybe if we

01:06:35.760 --> 01:06:38.160
do this, we can do that and this. They

01:06:38.160 --> 01:06:40.720
don't know what to do. And the history

01:06:40.720 --> 01:06:42.880
has shown that man ain't going to bring

01:06:42.880 --> 01:06:45.599
no peace on the earth. Forget it. The

01:06:45.599 --> 01:06:47.280
prince of peace is at the right hand of

01:06:47.280 --> 01:06:49.760
the father. As Isaiah chapter nine tells

01:06:49.760 --> 01:06:53.000
us, Jesus is the prince of

01:06:53.000 --> 01:06:55.039
peace. That's when we're going to have

01:06:55.039 --> 01:06:56.960
peace. Remember when the angel came to

01:06:56.960 --> 01:06:59.760
the the shepherds in the field as they

01:06:59.760 --> 01:07:02.640
were tending the shepherds and he said,

01:07:02.640 --> 01:07:06.200
"Don't be afraid for I bring you good

01:07:06.200 --> 01:07:09.039
news that's going to" And the ang peace

01:07:09.039 --> 01:07:11.359
on earth good to just got finished

01:07:11.359 --> 01:07:14.000
singing that this past December. I

01:07:14.000 --> 01:07:16.720
wonder how many people uh knew what that

01:07:16.720 --> 01:07:18.240
was all about. a peace on earth, good

01:07:18.240 --> 01:07:20.680
will to man that it sure ain't happened

01:07:20.680 --> 01:07:23.480
yet. And of course, I didn't know

01:07:23.480 --> 01:07:27.039
either, but I know

01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:32.720
now. Men's hearts failing them for fear

01:07:32.720 --> 01:07:35.039
and for looking after those things which

01:07:35.039 --> 01:07:37.520
are coming on earth. For the powers of

01:07:37.520 --> 01:07:41.240
heaven should be shaken.

01:07:49.160 --> 01:07:52.480
It's it's there's a whole lot in here I

01:07:52.480 --> 01:07:55.760
don't want to get into because of uh it

01:07:55.760 --> 01:07:59.119
would take I would have to take a lot of

01:07:59.119 --> 01:08:02.720
time to explain it.

01:08:03.000 --> 01:08:05.599
But we're in the last days, people.

01:08:05.599 --> 01:08:08.640
We're in the last days. 2025. And every

01:08:08.640 --> 01:08:11.359
generation, like I said, God is calling

01:08:11.359 --> 01:08:13.280
out of the nations and people for their

01:08:13.280 --> 01:08:16.319
name. We're in 2025 and you still

01:08:16.319 --> 01:08:20.080
calling people out of the

01:08:20.839 --> 01:08:23.359
nation. I hope you're one of them. And

01:08:23.359 --> 01:08:25.960
it's got to be that

01:08:25.960 --> 01:08:28.880
gospel. That's No, but we did that. No

01:08:28.880 --> 01:08:31.520
already.

01:08:40.480 --> 01:08:43.319
And Noah in building the

01:08:43.319 --> 01:08:47.799
ar he offers up a sacrifice to God

01:08:47.799 --> 01:08:51.560
offering and God's pleased with the

01:08:51.560 --> 01:08:54.839
offering and in gratitude

01:08:54.839 --> 01:08:57.480
uh after he offers up

01:08:57.480 --> 01:08:59.759
the sacrifice

01:08:59.759 --> 01:09:02.839
It says it was a sweet swelling savor to

01:09:02.839 --> 01:09:05.880
God. And God

01:09:05.880 --> 01:09:08.600
says while the earth

01:09:08.600 --> 01:09:11.199
remainth, seed time and harvest, and

01:09:11.199 --> 01:09:13.839
cold and heat, summer and winter, day

01:09:13.839 --> 01:09:17.040
and night shall not cease. I just wanted

01:09:17.040 --> 01:09:19.679
to bring that

01:09:20.759 --> 01:09:25.000
out. The earth remainth. seed time and

01:09:25.000 --> 01:09:27.199
harvest, cold and heat, summer and

01:09:27.199 --> 01:09:28.560
winter and day and night. And I say,

01:09:28.560 --> 01:09:30.719
"Well, witnesses, this is written over

01:09:30.719 --> 01:09:33.880
5,000 years ago,

01:09:33.880 --> 01:09:36.279
people." What the

01:09:36.279 --> 01:09:38.279
earth

01:09:38.279 --> 01:09:42.920
proverbs the earth remainth for

01:09:42.920 --> 01:09:45.679
forever? We just going in the summer.

01:09:45.679 --> 01:09:47.839
We're in summer time now. I think we

01:09:47.839 --> 01:09:49.640
just went to the

01:09:49.640 --> 01:09:54.400
cold in the heat and now it's summer and

01:09:54.400 --> 01:09:57.840
then went day and night shall not see.

01:09:57.840 --> 01:10:00.239
Hey, since I've been alive, it's always

01:10:00.239 --> 01:10:01.640
been day and

01:10:01.640 --> 01:10:04.400
night. And this was written over 5,000

01:10:04.400 --> 01:10:05.239
years

01:10:05.239 --> 01:10:07.080
ago.

01:10:07.080 --> 01:10:11.760
Now, you you would have to be blind and

01:10:11.760 --> 01:10:13.000
and

01:10:13.000 --> 01:10:15.760
dishonoring not to bring a demand. Well,

01:10:15.760 --> 01:10:19.520
this has been over 5,000 years ago and I

01:10:19.520 --> 01:10:22.520
and I'm a witness to

01:10:22.520 --> 01:10:26.239
this. This is true. Of course, it's true

01:10:26.239 --> 01:10:30.679
because the God of truth said so.

01:10:34.720 --> 01:10:41.690
[Music]

01:10:44.360 --> 01:10:50.080
Genesis next uh class is going to be

01:10:50.280 --> 01:10:51.960
uh

01:10:51.960 --> 01:10:55.159
Abraham. His name is Abram.

01:10:55.159 --> 01:10:57.920
Now, this lesson brings us to a very

01:10:57.920 --> 01:10:59.679
important milestone in our journey

01:10:59.679 --> 01:11:02.480
through the scriptures. Our attention is

01:11:02.480 --> 01:11:05.040
focused on Abram, a man chosen by God

01:11:05.040 --> 01:11:07.920
because of his capacity for faith. We

01:11:07.920 --> 01:11:10.719
also learn about Isaac and Jacob, the

01:11:10.719 --> 01:11:13.520
immediate descendants of Abram, and find

01:11:13.520 --> 01:11:15.760
God repeated his promises to them,

01:11:15.760 --> 01:11:18.560
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The good

01:11:18.560 --> 01:11:20.880
news, the gospel preached to Abraham and

01:11:20.880 --> 01:11:23.199
Isaac and Jacob and so forth concerning

01:11:23.199 --> 01:11:25.920
the land which they're fighting about

01:11:25.920 --> 01:11:28.920
over there today in

01:11:28.920 --> 01:11:32.239
Israel. We are reminded once more of the

01:11:32.239 --> 01:11:35.000
importance of that key word

01:11:35.000 --> 01:11:39.040
seed. That's Christ and its relation to

01:11:39.040 --> 01:11:43.199
a particular land and people. It is

01:11:43.199 --> 01:11:45.760
important as we move through our lessons

01:11:45.760 --> 01:11:48.679
we emphasize that Jesus is a central

01:11:48.679 --> 01:11:51.679
personality in every development of

01:11:51.679 --> 01:11:55.640
God's plan and promise prophecy and

01:11:55.640 --> 01:11:59.600
type. And here we find Abram mentioned

01:11:59.600 --> 01:12:03.640
for the first time in Genesis

01:12:03.640 --> 01:12:06.880
11:27. This verse introduces us to Abram

01:12:06.880 --> 01:12:10.800
are called in living in the city of

01:12:10.800 --> 01:12:15.440
that's where he was when God called him

01:12:17.159 --> 01:12:20.159
and

01:12:21.560 --> 01:12:26.120
fact Genesis 12:1.

01:12:27.199 --> 01:12:29.199
Now the Lord God said unto Abram, "Get

01:12:29.199 --> 01:12:30.560
thee out of thy country, from thy

01:12:30.560 --> 01:12:32.080
kindred, and from thy father's house

01:12:32.080 --> 01:12:35.440
into a land that I will show thee, and I

01:12:35.440 --> 01:12:37.120
will make of thee a great nation, and I

01:12:37.120 --> 01:12:38.480
will bless thee, and make thy name

01:12:38.480 --> 01:12:41.040
great, and thou shall be a blessing, and

01:12:41.040 --> 01:12:42.800
I will bless them that bless thee, and

01:12:42.800 --> 01:12:44.560
curse him that curses thee, and in thee

01:12:44.560 --> 01:12:46.520
shall all families of the earth be

01:12:46.520 --> 01:12:49.120
blessed." So Abram departed that the

01:12:49.120 --> 01:12:51.679
Lord had spoken unto him, and Lot went

01:12:51.679 --> 01:12:55.040
with him. And Abram was 75 years old

01:12:55.040 --> 01:12:58.420
when he departed out of out of Haran.

01:12:58.420 --> 01:13:04.310
[Music]

01:13:05.040 --> 01:13:08.719
These verses explain why Abram decided

01:13:08.719 --> 01:13:10.880
to leave a settle way of life in a

01:13:10.880 --> 01:13:13.840
prosperous city to become a nomad,

01:13:13.840 --> 01:13:16.000
journeying from place to place in search

01:13:16.000 --> 01:13:21.040
of a promised land. No. Yep. Yep. You

01:13:21.040 --> 01:13:24.320
have two minutes left, Mr. Lee. Okay. We

01:13:24.320 --> 01:13:27.199
note that a that he was 75 years old

01:13:27.199 --> 01:13:29.920
when he embarked on his venture. When he

01:13:29.920 --> 01:13:31.679
was called by God to get out of his

01:13:31.679 --> 01:13:34.800
father's house, he was 75 years old. It

01:13:34.800 --> 01:13:37.280
is an example of Abram's outstanding

01:13:37.280 --> 01:13:40.960
faith in God. A characteristic which

01:13:40.960 --> 01:13:43.360
identified him as the father of the

01:13:43.360 --> 01:13:45.520
fable. And then because we don't have

01:13:45.520 --> 01:13:47.800
the Bible after this, but

01:13:47.800 --> 01:13:51.520
uh one more verse here. Okay. And I

01:13:51.520 --> 01:13:56.840
think I'll stop here. Uh Genesis 13:1

01:13:56.840 --> 01:14:02.080
and Abram is is traveling now. And uh

01:14:02.080 --> 01:14:04.719
we'll have to get to him uh next week,

01:14:04.719 --> 01:14:05.560
God

01:14:05.560 --> 01:14:09.920
willing, Mr. Greg. And once again, we

01:14:09.920 --> 01:14:11.560
really thank you, Mr.

01:14:11.560 --> 01:14:16.159
for taking time to do God's will. You

01:14:16.159 --> 01:14:18.640
know, we know you take it very very

01:14:18.640 --> 01:14:20.719
seriously and we just want to thank you

01:14:20.719 --> 01:14:25.199
and Mrs. Lee. Yeah. It's our pleasure.

01:14:25.199 --> 01:14:31.080
Yeah. Yeah. Come on in. Okay.

01:14:33.679 --> 01:14:35.600
Anything you would like to say to the

01:14:35.600 --> 01:14:39.280
audience, Mrs. Lee? Any words of wisdom?

01:14:39.280 --> 01:14:40.960
Well, I could quote something to you.

01:14:40.960 --> 01:14:45.520
It's nice. Okay. It's uh messianic. Um

01:14:45.520 --> 01:14:47.719
it's Psalms

01:14:47.719 --> 01:14:51.040
72. Part of it. He shall come down like

01:14:51.040 --> 01:14:55.040
rain upon the moan grass and as showers

01:14:55.040 --> 01:14:57.199
that water the earth. In his day shall

01:14:57.199 --> 01:14:59.520
the righteous flourish and abundance of

01:14:59.520 --> 01:15:04.080
peace as long as the moon endureth.

01:15:04.080 --> 01:15:06.400
That's coming from her head. Yeah. Yeah.

01:15:06.400 --> 01:15:10.000
That's very good. That's She's good.

01:15:10.000 --> 01:15:12.800
Psalm 72. Yeah. Yep. So, Mr. Lee,

01:15:12.800 --> 01:15:15.520
anytime Mrs. Lee has a scripture, feel

01:15:15.520 --> 01:15:17.600
free, you know, to end with it. That's

01:15:17.600 --> 01:15:19.840
perfect.

01:15:19.840 --> 01:15:21.600
Yeah.

01:15:21.600 --> 01:15:24.239
Next time, next uh next Friday, I I'll

01:15:24.239 --> 01:15:26.320
quote another one to you. How's that? No

01:15:26.320 --> 01:15:28.880
problem. Mrs. Lee, you you told me

01:15:28.880 --> 01:15:31.520
something and I forgot what word it was.

01:15:31.520 --> 01:15:33.760
Remember the other day you discovered a

01:15:33.760 --> 01:15:37.040
word and the meaning of it? I forgot. Uh

01:15:37.040 --> 01:15:39.280
I you forgot I forgot the meaning of the

01:15:39.280 --> 01:15:42.640
word. Yeah, it was a revelation you

01:15:42.640 --> 01:15:44.640
received.

01:15:44.640 --> 01:15:48.320
Yeah. Yeah. I forgot what it was. Mrs.

01:15:48.320 --> 01:15:51.040
Lee, what she quoted? A scripture? No,

01:15:51.040 --> 01:15:53.120
it wasn't a scripture. It was something.

01:15:53.120 --> 01:15:56.159
It was a word and she got deeper meaning

01:15:56.159 --> 01:15:59.840
on it about a week or so ago. Mr. Lee.

01:15:59.840 --> 01:16:02.560
Yeah. Wow. I don't know if I don't know

01:16:02.560 --> 01:16:05.760
if it was amen, but it will come to

01:16:05.760 --> 01:16:09.199
mind. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

01:16:09.199 --> 01:16:12.400
Well, yeah. Amen. Amen means may the L
