00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:36.720
But<00:04:32.620><c> this</c><00:04:32.879><c> people,</c><00:04:34.720><c> with</c><00:04:34.879><c> all</c><00:04:35.160><c> the</c><00:04:35.339><c> privileges</c><00:04:35.620><c> that</c><00:04:35.839><c> they</c><00:04:36.019><c> have,</c><00:04:36.459><c> do</c>

not<00:04:36.939><c> listen.</c>

00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:40.279
And<00:04:38.779><c> you</c><00:04:38.920><c> think</c><00:04:39.060><c> of</c><00:04:39.160><c> the</c><00:04:39.319><c> difference.</c>

00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:43.839
God<00:04:41.180><c> was</c><00:04:41.420><c> their</c><00:04:41.740><c> heavenly</c><00:04:42.199><c> father,</c><00:04:42.660><c> not</c><00:04:42.959><c> an</c><00:04:43.180><c> earthly</c><00:04:43.420><c> father</c>

00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:45.079

00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:49.139
He<00:04:45.839><c> was</c><00:04:46.000><c> a</c><00:04:46.180><c> much</c><00:04:46.500><c> greater</c><00:04:46.860><c> father</c><00:04:47.279><c> than</c><00:04:47.459><c> John</c><00:04:47.699><c> Adab</c><00:04:47.899><c> could</c><00:04:48.100><c> ever</c><00:04:48.379><c> be.</c>

00:04:49.620 --> 00:04:51.939
The<00:04:50.199><c> heavenly</c><00:04:50.620><c> father</c><00:04:50.939><c> lives</c><00:04:51.220><c> forever.</c>

00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:54.360
He<00:04:52.560><c> has</c><00:04:52.819><c> all</c><00:04:53.240><c> power.</c>

00:04:54.480 --> 00:04:57.839
He's<00:04:54.660><c> always</c><00:04:55.040><c> alive</c><00:04:55.579><c> to</c><00:04:55.800><c> watch</c><00:04:56.139><c> over</c><00:04:56.379><c> his</c><00:04:56.620><c> generations.</c>

00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:00.899
He's<00:04:59.360><c> constantly</c><00:04:59.759><c> reminding</c><00:05:00.199><c> them</c><00:05:00.399><c> to</c><00:05:00.660><c> obey.</c>

00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:03.259
John<00:05:01.199><c> Adab</c><00:05:01.420><c> was</c><00:05:01.959><c> dead.</c>

00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:07.660
God<00:05:05.360><c> was</c><00:05:05.560><c> always</c><00:05:05.959><c> speaking</c><00:05:06.259><c> through</c><00:05:06.459><c> his</c><00:05:06.720><c> prophets.</c>

00:05:08.379 --> 00:05:10.560
He's<00:05:08.639><c> a</c><00:05:08.779><c> far</c><00:05:09.060><c> greater</c><00:05:09.300><c> benefactor</c><00:05:09.779><c> than</c><00:05:10.000><c> John</c><00:05:10.220><c> Adab</c><00:05:10.399><c> could</c>

00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:11.720
ever<00:05:10.819><c> be.</c>

00:05:12.259 --> 00:05:14.980
He<00:05:12.480><c> gave</c><00:05:12.779><c> better</c><00:05:13.220><c> laws</c><00:05:13.620><c> than</c><00:05:13.800><c> John</c><00:05:14.040><c> Adab.</c>

00:05:16.939 --> 00:05:19.839
He<00:05:17.360><c> gave</c><00:05:17.620><c> them</c><00:05:17.819><c> easier</c><00:05:18.319><c> laws</c><00:05:18.600><c> than</c><00:05:18.800><c> John</c><00:05:19.060><c> Adab.</c>

00:05:21.579 --> 00:05:23.579
And<00:05:21.620><c> he</c><00:05:21.699><c> was</c><00:05:21.879><c> able</c><00:05:22.079><c> to</c><00:05:22.259><c> punish</c><00:05:22.500><c> them</c><00:05:22.680><c> if</c><00:05:22.800><c> they</c><00:05:23.000><c> disobeyed.</c>

00:05:23.740 --> 00:05:25.939
And<00:05:23.899><c> all</c><00:05:24.079><c> of</c><00:05:24.220><c> those</c><00:05:24.439><c> things</c><00:05:24.620><c> made</c><00:05:24.800><c> him</c><00:05:24.959><c> a</c><00:05:25.120><c> far</c><00:05:25.379><c> greater</c><00:05:25.660><c> father</c>

00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.000
And<00:05:26.879><c> yet</c><00:05:27.040><c> they</c><00:05:27.279><c> were</c><00:05:27.480><c> obeying</c><00:05:27.720><c> John</c><00:05:27.959><c> Adab</c><00:05:28.199><c> and</c><00:05:28.399><c> the</c><00:05:28.579><c> Jews</c><00:05:28.720><c> were</c>

00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:30.199

00:05:30.300 --> 00:05:32.000
And<00:05:30.360><c> that's</c><00:05:30.639><c> God's</c><00:05:31.040><c> point.</c>

00:05:34.579 --> 00:05:36.620
John<00:05:34.740><c> Adab</c><00:05:34.920><c> couldn't</c><00:05:35.240><c> see</c><00:05:35.600><c> whether</c><00:05:35.800><c> they</c><00:05:36.040><c> obeyed</c><00:05:36.319><c> his</c><00:05:36.480><c> laws</c>

00:05:36.620 --> 00:05:36.939
or<00:05:36.839><c> not.</c>

00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:38.540
He<00:05:37.040><c> was</c><00:05:37.300><c> dead.</c>

00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:41.500
But<00:05:39.500><c> God</c><00:05:39.639><c> could</c><00:05:39.939><c> see</c><00:05:40.180><c> and</c><00:05:40.339><c> yet</c><00:05:40.439><c> they</c><00:05:40.680><c> disobeyed</c><00:05:41.079><c> him.</c>

00:05:41.980 --> 00:05:43.399
And<00:05:42.259><c> that's</c><00:05:42.500><c> the</c><00:05:42.620><c> lesson</c><00:05:42.779><c> of</c><00:05:42.920><c> this</c><00:05:43.060><c> chapter.</c>

00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:48.100
They<00:05:44.199><c> had</c><00:05:44.420><c> insulted</c><00:05:45.120><c> their</c><00:05:45.360><c> heavenly</c><00:05:45.720><c> father</c><00:05:46.379><c> by</c><00:05:47.579><c> disobeying</c>

00:05:48.100 --> 00:05:49.480
his<00:05:48.339><c> covenants.</c>

00:05:49.980 --> 00:05:52.040
But<00:05:50.019><c> let's</c><00:05:50.240><c> just</c><00:05:50.540><c> trace</c><00:05:50.680><c> the</c><00:05:50.920><c> incident</c><00:05:51.120><c> to</c><00:05:51.300><c> see</c><00:05:51.459><c> how</c><00:05:51.720><c> dramatic</c>

00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:53.240
that<00:05:52.319><c> point</c><00:05:52.480><c> is</c><00:05:52.740><c> made.</c>

00:05:53.699 --> 00:05:57.720
First<00:05:53.779><c> two.</c><00:05:55.259><c> Jeremiah</c><00:05:55.480><c> was</c><00:05:55.779><c> told</c><00:05:56.000><c> to</c><00:05:56.199><c> go</c><00:05:56.420><c> to</c><00:05:56.620><c> the</c><00:05:56.759><c> house</c><00:05:57.139><c> of</c>

00:05:57.720 --> 00:05:58.959
the<00:05:57.899><c> Reckobites.</c>

00:06:01.100 --> 00:06:03.699
Now<00:06:01.319><c> when</c><00:06:01.439><c> we</c><00:06:01.600><c> come</c><00:06:01.680><c> to</c><00:06:01.800><c> the</c><00:06:01.920><c> Reckobites</c><00:06:02.339><c> we</c><00:06:02.480><c> are</c><00:06:02.660><c> dealing</c><00:06:02.860><c> particularly</c><00:06:03.360><c> with</c><00:06:03.579><c> the</c>

00:06:03.699 --> 00:06:04.759
history<00:06:04.079><c> of</c><00:06:04.399><c> John</c><00:06:04.560><c> Adab.</c>

00:06:04.819 --> 00:06:05.959
And<00:06:04.899><c> we'll</c><00:06:05.000><c> go</c><00:06:05.160><c> into</c><00:06:05.259><c> that</c><00:06:05.459><c> in</c><00:06:05.560><c> a</c><00:06:05.720><c> moment.</c>

00:06:06.459 --> 00:06:07.839
But<00:06:06.579><c> let's</c><00:06:06.720><c> just</c><00:06:07.040><c> tell</c><00:06:07.160><c> you</c><00:06:07.300><c> what</c><00:06:07.459><c> they</c><00:06:07.699><c> were.</c>

00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:11.680
They<00:06:08.060><c> were</c><00:06:08.319><c> a</c><00:06:09.560><c> group</c><00:06:09.759><c> in</c><00:06:09.879><c> Israel</c><00:06:10.240><c> who</c><00:06:10.500><c> always</c><00:06:10.959><c> saw</c><00:06:11.160><c> themselves</c>

00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:13.139
as<00:06:12.160><c> strangers.</c>

00:06:13.620 --> 00:06:14.180
See<00:06:13.639><c> verse</c><00:06:13.879><c> 7.</c>

00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:16.500
That<00:06:14.279><c> you</c><00:06:14.399><c> may</c><00:06:14.579><c> live</c><00:06:14.779><c> long</c><00:06:15.040><c> in</c><00:06:15.220><c> the</c><00:06:15.420><c> land</c><00:06:15.639><c> where</c><00:06:15.860><c> you</c><00:06:15.980><c> were</c><00:06:16.220><c> strangers.</c>

00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.540
When<00:06:16.800><c> John</c><00:06:17.040><c> Adab</c><00:06:17.279><c> wrote</c><00:06:17.600><c> that</c><00:06:18.240><c> they</c><00:06:18.759><c> had</c><00:06:18.980><c> been</c><00:06:19.120><c> in</c><00:06:19.240><c> the</c><00:06:19.379><c> land</c>

00:06:19.540 --> 00:06:21.939

00:06:22.699 --> 00:06:25.160
And<00:06:22.899><c> they</c><00:06:23.120><c> still</c><00:06:23.319><c> saw</c><00:06:23.480><c> themselves</c><00:06:23.959><c> as</c><00:06:24.300><c> strangers.</c>

00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:28.079
So<00:06:26.000><c> they</c><00:06:26.139><c> always</c><00:06:26.360><c> saw</c><00:06:26.459><c> themselves</c><00:06:26.959><c> even</c><00:06:27.300><c> though</c><00:06:27.519><c> in</c><00:06:27.759><c> Israel</c>

00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:29.759
not<00:06:28.399><c> quite</c><00:06:28.680><c> of</c><00:06:28.860><c> Israel.</c>

00:06:29.819 --> 00:06:31.800
In<00:06:29.980><c> fact</c><00:06:30.079><c> it's</c><00:06:30.259><c> interesting</c><00:06:30.579><c> if</c><00:06:30.720><c> you</c><00:06:30.879><c> go</c><00:06:31.000><c> through</c><00:06:31.139><c> this</c><00:06:31.360><c> chapter</c><00:06:31.620><c> and</c>

00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:34.240
again<00:06:32.019><c> got</c><00:06:32.220><c> your</c><00:06:32.399><c> pencil</c><00:06:32.660><c> there,</c><00:06:33.000><c> verse</c><00:06:33.120><c> 13.</c>

That<00:06:34.939><c> about</c><00:06:35.339><c> five</c><00:06:35.720><c> times</c><00:06:36.120><c> God</c><00:06:36.360><c> calls</c><00:06:36.699><c> himself</c><00:06:37.279><c> the</c><00:06:37.660><c> God</c><00:06:37.839><c> of</c>

00:06:41.620 --> 00:06:43.360
Because<00:06:41.740><c> he's</c><00:06:42.120><c> saying</c><00:06:42.199><c> to</c><00:06:42.319><c> them</c><00:06:42.500><c> you</c><00:06:42.699><c> are</c><00:06:43.040><c> part.</c>

00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:45.879
Even<00:06:43.800><c> though</c><00:06:43.980><c> I</c><00:06:44.079><c> am</c><00:06:44.180><c> the</c><00:06:44.279><c> God</c><00:06:44.420><c> of</c><00:06:44.579><c> Israel</c><00:06:44.740><c> I</c><00:06:45.000><c> regard</c><00:06:45.300><c> you</c><00:06:45.480><c> as</c><00:06:45.699><c> part.</c>

00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:08.360
So<00:16:05.679><c> here</c><00:16:05.820><c> was</c><00:16:05.980><c> a</c><00:16:06.120><c> man</c><00:16:06.259><c> who</c><00:16:06.419><c> was</c><00:16:06.820><c> personally</c><00:16:07.259><c> a</c><00:16:07.519><c> failure.</c>

00:16:08.940 --> 00:16:12.759
And<00:16:09.200><c> yet</c><00:16:09.340><c> God</c><00:16:09.600><c> said,</c><00:16:10.779><c> because</c><00:16:11.200><c> he</c><00:16:11.580><c> executed</c><00:16:11.980><c> that</c><00:16:12.279><c> which</c><00:16:12.419><c> was</c>

00:16:19.179 --> 00:16:22.559
because<00:16:19.320><c> he</c><00:16:19.539><c> did</c><00:16:19.700><c> that</c><00:16:19.879><c> which</c><00:16:20.039><c> I</c><00:16:20.240><c> required</c><00:16:20.539><c> of</c><00:16:20.679><c> him.</c>

00:16:23.820 --> 00:16:25.019
But<00:16:23.860><c> can</c><00:16:23.960><c> you</c><00:16:24.120><c> imagine</c>

00:16:26.419 --> 00:16:30.620
the<00:16:26.940><c> impact</c><00:16:27.460><c> of</c><00:16:28.559><c> the</c><00:16:28.860><c> failure</c><00:16:29.059><c> of</c><00:16:29.360><c> Jehu</c><00:16:29.679><c> upon</c><00:16:30.080><c> John</c><00:16:30.460><c> Adab?</c>

00:16:30.659 --> 00:16:33.039
Now<00:16:30.799><c> here's</c><00:16:31.019><c> a</c><00:16:31.139><c> man</c><00:16:31.279><c> who</c><00:16:31.559><c> thinks</c><00:16:31.779><c> that</c><00:16:32.059><c> their</c><00:16:32.440><c> hearts</c><00:16:32.840><c> are</c>

00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:33.600
locked<00:16:33.220><c> together.</c>

00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:35.360
We<00:16:34.039><c> both</c><00:16:34.320><c> hate</c><00:16:34.639><c> apostasy.</c>

00:16:35.700 --> 00:16:37.740
We<00:16:35.960><c> hate</c><00:16:36.220><c> the</c><00:16:36.440><c> house</c><00:16:36.639><c> of</c><00:16:36.840><c> Jezebel.</c>

00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:40.340
We're<00:16:38.179><c> going</c><00:16:38.200><c> to</c><00:16:38.279><c> go</c><00:16:38.500><c> around</c><00:16:38.700><c> the</c><00:16:38.899><c> land</c><00:16:39.120><c> wiping</c><00:16:39.419><c> out</c><00:16:39.840><c> everyone</c>

00:16:40.340 --> 00:16:42.120
because<00:16:40.580><c> God</c><00:16:40.840><c> wants</c><00:16:41.100><c> us</c><00:16:41.360><c> to.</c>

00:16:43.639 --> 00:16:46.320
And<00:16:44.039><c> the</c><00:16:44.179><c> minute</c><00:16:44.379><c> that</c><00:16:44.580><c> they've</c><00:16:44.799><c> finished</c><00:16:45.080><c> the</c><00:16:45.299><c> work,</c>

00:16:46.820 --> 00:16:48.779
Jehu<00:16:46.960><c> goes</c><00:16:47.220><c> back</c><00:16:47.480><c> to</c><00:16:47.659><c> Baal</c><00:16:47.879><c> worship.</c>

00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:51.600

00:16:56.600 --> 00:16:58.919
He<00:16:56.659><c> said,</c><00:16:56.860><c> that's</c><00:16:56.919><c> why</c><00:16:57.059><c> he</c><00:16:57.220><c> made</c><00:16:57.360><c> the</c><00:16:57.539><c> laws</c><00:16:57.720><c> for</c><00:16:57.899><c> his</c><00:16:58.100><c> family.</c>

00:17:06.279 --> 00:17:09.240
Before<00:17:06.420><c> we</c><00:17:06.539><c> get</c><00:17:06.660><c> into</c><00:17:06.779><c> that,</c><00:17:07.000><c> I</c><00:17:07.119><c> want</c><00:17:07.180><c> to</c><00:17:07.319><c> just</c><00:17:07.519><c> comment</c><00:17:07.720><c> upon</c><00:17:08.000><c> Jehu.</c>

00:17:19.339 --> 00:17:24.019
Hating<00:17:19.759><c> and</c><00:17:20.019><c> fighting</c><00:17:20.420><c> evil</c><00:17:20.759><c> is</c><00:17:21.019><c> not</c><00:17:21.180><c> unnoticed</c><00:17:21.880><c> nor</c><00:17:22.180><c> unrewarded</c><00:17:22.839><c> by</c><00:17:23.079><c> God.</c>

00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:44.059
Why?

00:31:44.980 --> 00:31:46.859
Because<00:31:45.299><c> as</c><00:31:45.299><c> priests,</c><00:31:45.619><c> you</c><00:31:45.640><c> have</c><00:31:45.859><c> to</c><00:31:46.000><c> make</c><00:31:46.180><c> the</c><00:31:46.420><c> difference</c>

00:31:51.319 --> 00:31:51.799
what's<00:31:51.599><c> wrong.</c>

00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:54.380

00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:56.720
And<00:31:55.339><c> the</c><00:31:55.519><c> Nazarites,</c>

00:32:03.319 --> 00:32:05.180
Because<00:32:03.579><c> you</c><00:32:03.720><c> can't</c><00:32:04.059><c> devote</c><00:32:04.279><c> your</c><00:32:04.480><c> head</c><00:32:04.559><c> if</c><00:32:04.700><c> your</c><00:32:04.900><c> brain's</c>

00:32:21.680 --> 00:32:23.720
And<00:32:21.839><c> we</c><00:32:21.880><c> have</c><00:32:22.019><c> to</c><00:32:22.140><c> ask</c><00:32:22.339><c> ourselves,</c><00:32:22.940><c> how</c><00:32:23.079><c> do</c><00:32:23.200><c> we</c><00:32:23.299><c> get</c><00:32:23.440><c> on</c><00:32:23.599><c> when</c>

00:44:20.039 --> 00:44:22.679

00:44:23.079 --> 00:44:24.739
oh<00:44:23.260><c> well</c><00:44:23.380><c> if</c><00:44:23.480><c> their</c><00:44:23.699><c> hearts</c><00:44:23.940><c> are</c><00:44:24.159><c> right,</c><00:44:24.260><c> you</c><00:44:24.340><c> don't</c><00:44:24.460><c> have</c><00:44:24.619><c> to</c>

00:44:30.159 --> 00:44:34.300
If<00:44:30.380><c> all</c><00:44:30.639><c> hearts</c><00:44:30.920><c> were</c><00:44:31.119><c> mature</c><00:44:31.699><c> and</c><00:44:33.179><c> loved</c><00:44:33.440><c> God</c><00:44:33.760><c> abundantly,</c>
