2

What's up?

3

I heard you preached at the Women's

Bible study this last weekend.

4

How did that go?

5

It was fine, but like I said,

people kept interrupting with

6

questions, so, well, that's awkward.

7

I heard you handled it swimmingly

though, and that you answered the

8

questions Well, it was no, it was a q

and a with our women and it was great.

9

I loved it.

10

It was awesome to be there.

11

The room is definitely louder when

the women are there, fellowshipping

12

than it is with the men.

13

It's wait a minute, buddy.

14

That sounds like a sexist remark.

15

I, what are you intending to say?

16

I'm saying no, it's a

slant against the men.

17

'cause I walked and the

din of fellowship was.

18

Was palpable.

19

The cacophony of fellowship

was just overpowering.

20

It was.

21

So are you saying that the women

just know how to have a party better?

22

It seems that way.

23

It seems that way.

24

Maybe it was the food.

25

What kind of food do they have?

26

They do have other food.

27

They had some scrambled egg stuff.

28

They had bacon, they had I think

there was some sort of maple syrup

29

concoction somewhere in there.

30

I didn't eat 'cause I was about

to go up and speak, but I.

31

Enjoyed a cup of coffee

and yeah, it was great.

32

It was great.

33

What were some of the most helpful

questions that you think, oh man,

34

the guy should think about this too.

35

Oh, there's a lot of

questions about marriage.

36

We talked a lot about marriage.

37

Mm-hmm.

38

Which was It's on their minds, huh?

39

Was Yeah.

40

Which was good.

41

And I made, and they were

all single women who asked.

42

Yes, absolutely.

43

I made a point with our ladies

and I told them that I would

44

make the same point with our men.

45

And so I guess there's an opportunity

to do it here, and that is.

46

Ultimately, our marriage

is not about our happiness.

47

It's about our, whoa, our sanctification.

48

It's about our holiness.

49

And there are difficult circumstances

in marriages that are out there

50

on both sides of the equation.

51

In our church like ours, we've

got a lot of good marriages.

52

And I made that point too.

53

I said marriage is a good thing and

it's, it is to be enjoyed and it should

54

be if it's, if both spouses are pursuing

the Lord together, it's a great thing.

55

But there's a lot of times in the

reality of our fallen world, well,

56

you'll have one spouse that is pursuing

the Lord and one spouse who's not

57

always that they're an unbeliever.

58

But that can create a lot of

friction and tension in the marriage.

59

And especially when you do have

one spouse that's a believer in

60

one spouse, that's not a believer.

61

And so a lot of the questions

were, how do I navigate that?

62

How do I do that in a way

that is honoring to the Lord?

63

Even just some hard questions of do I have

to stay in a marriage that's difficult

64

if it's not a clear cut case of.

65

When the Bible would let me out

of the marriage, what do I do?

66

How do I keep going in that?

67

So a lot of questions about that.

68

And it was, I think a helpful time.

69

I'm glad to hear that.

70

Yeah, that's, those are

really interesting questions.

71

Hard questions.

72

Yes.

73

Because there's so many circumstances

that might make it more tenable

74

for one thing versus another.

75

For sure.

76

The default is always we

wanna preserve marriages.

77

This is what God wants.

78

You said something though that I'd

love to tease out a little more.

79

God is not interested in our unhappiness.

80

As much as More than, right.

81

Something like that than our

sanctification in marriage.

82

Our sanctification.

83

Yeah.

84

Okay.

85

On the other side of that.

86

But wouldn't you say that

those who are most holy are

87

also those who are most happy?

88

Absolutely.

89

Yeah.

90

And that's why I try to balance that is

by saying that, in that context on that

91

morning is that marriage is a good thing.

92

I didn't want to answer all those

questions such a way as to be like,

93

well, just put up your marriage.

94

And there's eternal

rewards for being faithful.

95

There are eternal rewards for

being faithful in a difficult

96

marriage, but there's also marriage.

97

In and of itself is a good thing.

98

God gave it to us as a gift to be enjoyed,

and it's a great thing when both are

99

pursuing Christ and your marriage is

never gonna be stronger in than when

100

both are actively pursuing Christ and

wanting to be obedient to the Lord.

101

In one Corinthians chapter seven,

Paul is talking to the Christians

102

saying, if you're a believer

who's married to an unbeliever.

103

No need to pursue divorce if

they're willing to live with you.

104

Right.

105

If they consent to do that.

106

But he does say something

super interesting, and I

107

know we're not there yet.

108

It's gonna be a minute before we're

in First Corinthians, but I'd love

109

for you to talk about this part.

110

He says that the unbelieving

spouse and the kids are made

111

wholly by the believing spouse.

112

What do you think he means by that

and how can that be an encouragement

113

to us to stay in a difficult

marriage that you're talking about?

114

Yeah I believe.

115

It in both instances, part of

the being made holy is there's the

116

opportunity for them to come to

faith and repentance in Christ.

117

The, if they are married to a believer,

if they're seeing the believer and

118

they're exposed to the believer's

testimony, witness and even hearing the

119

gospel, then they're in a good position.

120

So that's part of it.

121

The other part of it too is the blessings

that God bestows upon the family.

122

I think when there's a believing

spouse in the, that family the

123

unbeliever and the children of that.

124

That marriage are going to receive

blessings that otherwise they wouldn't

125

have because of their connection in that

marriage where there's a believing spouse.

126

These are not necessarily eternal

blessings, but more of the common

127

grace that they're going to receive by

proximity to those that are believers.

128

Just like I think there's some of this,

when the writer of Hebrews talks about

129

in Hebrews chapter six, the person

that has tasted of the heavenly gift

130

been made partakers, I think they're

talking about somebody that's been a

131

part of the church and even benefited

from the presence of the church and

132

they've experienced the good that

comes by being around other believers.

133

But I don't think that

person's a genuine believer.

134

So there's some things by proxy

that can overflow into the lives of

135

those that are in fellowship with

Christians by living life with them

136

that otherwise they wouldn't have.

137

So the, they're encouraged to stay in

the marriage then because it could be

138

the very thing, the very vehicle that God

uses to bring an unbelieving spouse and

139

their kids right to a saving knowledge

of Christ, however long that might be.

140

And that's the part that

we don't know, right?

141

It could be a long time.

142

Far beyond what we're thinking about.

143

Okay.

144

Excellent.

145

The one distinction that I just

wanna make clear there is when he

146

says they're made holy, not in a

salvific sense, it's not guaranteed.

147

Just by fact that they're under

your roof does not guarantee

148

that they're gonna be saved.

149

Or that there's some special

dispensation of grace extended to

150

them because you stay married to them.

151

You know, I read something recently.

152

That made the opposite case,

and I'm not, I'm gonna keep the

153

author out 'cause that's not as

important as what they were saying.

154

Essentially, if you believe for your

family, and this wasn't a health wealth

155

prosperity gospel, this is an otherwise

sure godly teacher who is saying, if

156

you shepherd your kids, specifically

your kids, not your husband, who

157

shepherds your kids in a biblical way.

158

You can have a strong assurance

that God wants to save them

159

and that God will likely save.

160

In fact, I don't even think

he's hedging his bets.

161

I'm hedging 'cause that's the

language that I'm comfortable with.

162

But he would say, look, if

you do right by your kids, you

163

should expect to see them saved.

164

And that's what it is to believe on

those promises, to stand on those

165

promises that God has made to you.

166

How would you respond to that guy?

167

I don't know how broad his circle is

that he runs in, but I know of plenty

168

of people that I think were fit.

169

Were Godly parents, not perfect, but godly

parents whose children were raised and

170

aren't necessarily following the Lord.

171

I don't know that that bears out just

with my own experience of watching other

172

people who I think prayed for their kids,

disciplined their kids, brought them to

173

church, exposed them to the gospel at a

young age, and yet they weren't saved.

174

So I think it's a dangerous precedent

to establish to, to guarantee your

175

promised parents, Hey, if you do

right by what God wants you to do,

176

that he's going to, or he loves your

kids enough that he will save them.

177

I think it's the best shot that we

can, it's as much as we can do as

178

parents to, to work towards that end.

179

We can't save our kids, but

we can do a lot to, to help

180

put them on the right path.

181

And we should do that, but I just

don't know that I would go so far as

182

to guarantee that it is gonna happen.

183

Yeah, it seemed like a

really dangerous position.

184

Well, speaking of, this is before

we jump into the text here.

185

For most kids, this is spring break week.

186

Yep.

187

Easter week.

188

Any recommendations that they should

do this week while they're, I mean,

189

one of them, I can tell you for sure.

190

I have one recommendation.

191

If they're in junior high or high

school, I would love for them to

192

join us for not RWE this week.

193

So you could still sign up for that.

194

That's Wednesday and Thursday.

195

Only one overnight stay, so it's

not a big imposition to what

196

you guys are otherwise doing.

197

But we'd love for you to do that if you

have a junior hire or high schooler.

198

Register them for the retreat.

199

Yeah, the subject.

200

Covered during the teaching times

of that are gonna be so good too.

201

Talking about some pretty key

apologetic issues, existence of Yes.

202

Of a good God, problem of

evil, things like that.

203

Yeah, our Compass ladies have a fellowship

on Friday, so this is something that's

204

brand new, a new initiative that our

ladies are doing and that is aimed, it's

205

gonna be at a park, I think it's David

or Jim Ledbetter Park over in McKinney.

206

Never even heard of that.

207

And they're gonna be gathered together.

208

It's intended to be.

209

Is something for outreach, but also for

the young moms in our church as well as

210

empty nesters, single ladies, everybody

to be there to fellowship together and to

211

have an opportunity to encourage people

as well as be a witness to those that are

212

gonna be out there in the park as well.

213

So that's gonna be on Friday, and

you can find out more information

214

on our website, I'm sure on that.

215

So that would be a great

opportunity for you.

216

If it's not there yet, we

will get information up there.

217

God willing.

218

Yes, God willing.

219

Yeah.

220

Yeah, spring break.

221

That is this week, huh?

222

It is.

223

Yep.

224

Which is good.

225

Means some slower

mornings in our household.

226

We're not trying to get up

and get everybody out the door

227

right away, so that'll be nice.

228

Nice change of pace.

229

Yep.

230

Alright, let's get into our

daily Bible reading today.

231

One chapter in the Old Testament

and it is plenty for us to digest

232

because it is Deuteronomy chapter 28.

233

And so not only is it a long

chapter, I mean we're dealing

234

with how many verses here?

235

68 million.

236

68 verses.

237

60 million verses.

238

Yeah.

239

But just the content.

240

And this is a chapter that details

the blessings if Israel will

241

be obedient and the cursings if

Israel is going to be disobedient.

242

So as you get into this chapter, you'll

note that it is another one of those

243

chapters with the if then formula.

244

So the blessings begin or the

formula begins right off the bat.

245

If you faithfully obey, there's the if.

246

If you jump down the Lord, your

God will set you on high verse one.

247

So the if then of the blessings in

verse one there the if then for the

248

curses takes place over in verse 15.

249

But if you will not obey the voice

of the Lord, then so if you look

250

at that, there's 14 verses that

are connected to the blessings.

251

Now, a lot of these blessings are going to

be connected to the Abrahamic blessings.

252

If you look back up at verse 11,

the fruit of your womb will abound.

253

And the fruit of the ground within

the land that the Lord your God,

254

swar are your fathers to give you.

255

So there we see the offspring,

we see the land promises there,

256

there's some Abrahamic blessings

that are being referenced here.

257

But all that to say there's 14 verses

for the blessings for obedience.

258

And then starting in verse 15, all the

way down through verse 68, there are.

259

All of the curses for disobedience.

260

And so this is slanted heavily towards

the warnings about disobeying God.

261

And I believe the reason being is

because God wanted them to be abundantly

262

clear about what was at stake.

263

He wanted them to fear these things.

264

He wanted them, them to fear the curses.

265

It's not bad to be motivated by blessings.

266

That's fine.

267

But it's certainly good to be

motivated by saying, I fear the Lord.

268

And if I transgress as covenant.

269

Or Transgresses law.

270

These things are gonna happen.

271

In fact, it's interesting what

stood out to me this time is how

272

many times it says the Lord will.

273

The Lord will.

274

The Lord will.

275

In fact, I think nine, 10 times here,

it says, the Lord will actually, I take

276

that back 17 times total in the curses.

277

It says God will do this.

278

So these are not just natural consequences

that are happening for disobedience.

279

These are things that God is bringing

as far as his discipline on his people.

280

If they disobey him

right, and this is God's.

281

Desire to do this because he's

trying to bring them back to himself.

282

Ultimately, all of these

things are like speed bumps.

283

Now they're very aggressive speed bumps.

284

They're not easy.

285

The kind that you just slowly go over.

286

These are painful speed bumps that

are meant to turn them around to get

287

their attention, to wake them up to

their sin, and then help them to shoo.

288

To turn, to repent, to

turn back to their Lord.

289

And of course you know that

this is long because this is

290

exactly what they go through.

291

In fact, as you read through this,

you might already notice some of these

292

things that are fulfilled in Israel.

293

Deuteronomy 28 is meant to foreshadow

for us what we're going to read

294

in the rest of the Old Testament.

295

And what we see is that Israel

is going to fail spectacularly.

296

You have seasons where they're

doing really well, where they're

297

godly and there's someone good on

the throne who's leading them to

298

love Yahweh and to fulfill his law.

299

But by and large, what we're

gonna see is that these curses for

300

disobedience are affected on them.

301

And what this shows us is that

God is intent to discipline

302

the one him whom he loves.

303

This is Hebrews chapter 12.

304

He does this in Proverbs three.

305

He does this because he

cares about his people.

306

And this is true for us in as New

Testament Christians God disciplines.

307

Those whom he loves as a father,

the one in whom he delights.

308

This is what it might look like.

309

It doesn't look exactly like this

in terms of the specific curses,

310

but God still does this today.

311

Yeah, absolutely he does.

312

And it's right to fear him for that.

313

We do talk about the

difference of fire insurance.

314

Maybe that's.

315

Something that's helpful at this

point do we wanna save somebody

316

by just making them fear hell is

that an okay thing for us to do?

317

And sometimes you'll hear

people talk about salvation

318

is more than fire insurance.

319

And I agree with that a

hundred percent it is.

320

But I also think that it's

appropriate and good for us to

321

warn them of the dangers of.

322

Rejecting God and the penalty that exists

there so that they will fear that as well.

323

I think that's a good thing.

324

I don't think it has to be isolated

out, one or the other for us to

325

say, well, we don't want you just

to be saved with fire insurance.

326

True.

327

But that's part of what salvation,

the good news of salvation is

328

you're not gonna be cursed by God.

329

Amen.

330

That's exactly what I was gonna say.

331

In fact, Romans two says, it's

the kindness of God that leads

332

us to repentance and yet.

333

They won't appreciate

or respect his kindness.

334

Right.

335

Until they see his severity.

336

Yeah.

337

And so I'm of the opinion, you have

to talk about the judgment and the

338

destruction in order for them to see, oh

my, the Lord has resolved that for me.

339

He's taken on all of that

torment and wrath upon himself

340

so that I can avoid that.

341

Yeah.

342

That helps me appreciate his kindness.

343

Far more than if you just

say, Hey man, God loves you.

344

That's great.

345

What's that famous Paul washer sermon?

346

Great.

347

I love me too.

348

Yeah.

349

God has a wonderful plan for your life.

350

That's fantastic.

351

I have a wonderful plan for my

life too, and God suddenly becomes

352

a servant and not the master.

353

Yeah.

354

Yeah.

355

Let's flip over to our New

Testament reading as we conclude.

356

Mark chapter 15, and we begin there in

verse 27, but I wanna back up to verse 25.

357

It said it was the third

hour when they crucified him.

358

So just some time markers here we're,

they're talking about things we're not

359

used to as far as a keeping of time.

360

The third hour would've been from Don Don.

361

They typically counted from 6:00 AM so

third hour would've been about 9:00 AM.

362

This is when Jesus was crucified.

363

This is the beginning of the crucifixion.

364

Jesus is gonna be on

the cross for six hours.

365

We say how do we know

it's gonna be six hours?

366

Because three hours, well,

six hours before his death.

367

I should clarify.

368

Three hours later, verse 33, when the

sixth hour had come, there was darkness

369

over the holy land until the ninth hour.

370

At the ninth hour is when Jesus cries out,

my God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

371

We talked about that in Matthew.

372

This is not Jesus complaining.

373

This is Jesus feeling the fullness

of the weight of God for God's wrath.

374

That is for our sins, the fullness

of the weight of our sins, and the

375

fullness of his holy and just wrath.

376

But the ninth hour there, and then

in verse 37 it says, and Jesus

377

uttered a loud cry and breathe this

last, so he's crucified at the third

378

hour that would've been 9:00 AM He

ends up dying at the ninth hour.

379

So if we go three hours later, we're at

noon plus three, so 3:00 PM So he's on the

380

cross for six hours before he dies here.

381

And still, that was a short amount of

time because when the disciples go to ask

382

for the body later on they're surprised

that Jesus is already dead at this point.

383

So crucifixion was meant

to be one of the most.

384

Painful and drawn out

processes of execution.

385

The word excruciating that we

use in English comes from the

386

Latin word for for to crucify.

387

And that's why it comes from that.

388

It was the most intense amount of pain

and suffering anyone could go through.

389

And Jesus did that for us here.

390

Your Bible already

probably does this for you.

391

It'll put a little note there.

392

It tells you what time it is.

393

I like to write this stuff in my Bible

just so I can more easily see it.

394

Sure.

395

Our ESV is faithful to the

original text in that they're

396

gonna say what the text says.

397

Yeah.

398

In this case it says it was the third hour

Other bible pa other Bible translations.

399

We'll just say it was 9:00 AM.

400

And I like that.

401

I appreciate that, but I

just put it in my own Bible.

402

I would recommend you do the same.

403

Yep.

404

One of the interesting things too

here is the mockery of the crowds.

405

When they're deriding

him, wagging their heads.

406

Aha.

407

You who destroy the temple and rebuild it.

408

Three days, save yourself.

409

Verse 30.

410

They didn't realize what they were saying

there because if Jesus had saved himself,

411

he wouldn't have saved us, and so their.

412

Cr, they're beckoning him.

413

Save yourself, come down from the cross.

414

He could have absolutely easily in verse

31, the irony again, he saved others.

415

He cannot save himself.

416

His greatest act of saving others

came from the fact that he didn't

417

save himself from the wrath of God.

418

And so it's interesting to hear the

mockery of the crowd and to read it

419

through our Christian eyes and to say,

man they didn't realize what they were

420

doing, what they were saying in that.

421

Yeah.

422

And the irony is that he would not be

able to save others if he saved himself.

423

Right.

424

He had to.

425

Die in order to save.

426

It's the, yeah.

427

The irony is thick.

428

You would do well to make sure

that you see it and that you try

429

to do your best you can to feel it.

430

Yeah.

431

Feel what that was like.

432

And just think about people that

provoke your iron when they're

433

deliberately scorning or mocking you.

434

Mm-hmm.

435

And they're just poking you.

436

And Jesus Al is already

on the point of mm-hmm.

437

Defense here, and yet they're

going after him even further.

438

It wasn't enough.

439

It wasn't enough that he

was on the cross humiliated.

440

They're adding more humiliation now.

441

Think about the honor,

shame culture first century.

442

This is how it works.

443

Even in Eastern countries,

it's still this way.

444

Yeah.

445

They're adding more scoring and

shame to Jesus who's already

446

naked, bloody, and bruised.

447

Yeah.

448

That's not enough for them.

449

They're so blood thirsty.

450

And how about Mary?

451

His mom is right there at the foot of

the cross listening to these things too.

452

Oh yeah.

453

That's gotta be yeah.

454

Her own heart.

455

Yeah.

456

Her own soul will be pierced.

457

And you wonder if that's the prophecy,

if that's what led him to look at John

458

and say, John, this is your mother.

459

You need to care for her.

460

Yeah.

461

And to, to Mary.

462

Behold your son.

463

Jesus' compassion for his

mom there on the cross.

464

I think just realizing, man, this is hard

for him in a totally different way with

465

the wrath of God and everything else,

but so hard for his mom being there too.

466

Which also raises a question for me.

467

Where were his brothers?

468

Where was his family?

469

Because normally yeah, you would give

the care of the family to the eldest.

470

The next eldest.

471

Jesus himself was the first.

472

He was the first born, yeah.

473

Of Mary, but he had other siblings.

474

So where were they and why weren't they?

475

Why were they not part of Jesus equation

to say, who's gonna take care of my mom?

476

Well, where's James?

477

And yet there's John.

478

John gets the responsibility, which

is interesting because of the way

479

that the First Century family Unit

worked well, and it's likely at

480

this point that his brothers aren't

believers yet because they were.

481

Mocking him.

482

Even to the point of when he was going up

to the feast right before the passion week

483

too, they were like, Hey, let's go up.

484

It's time for you to take center stage.

485

Come on.

486

We wanna ride your coattails into glory.

487

And it seems that they didn't

come to faith until later.

488

We know they did because obviously

you've got Jude writing, Jude,

489

you've got James, that is gonna play

a key role in the church as well.

490

So they do come to faith.

491

But it just seems that maybe at this point

they're not, and maybe that's why his

492

instructions to John are what they are.

493

Yeah.

494

I have to believe that there's

something like that going on.

495

But at the same time, you would

say, even if they weren't believers,

496

that as Christians, they were

still men of their own time they

497

would have risen to the occasion.

498

For the mere fact that

their Honor is at stake.

499

They don't wanna be the guy who gets

his shoe taken off and spit in the face.

500

That's essentially the equivalent here.

501

Yeah.

502

They would've still done it just

because that was what they were, that

503

was what they were supposed to do.

504

And yet Jesus says, I'm gonna give

them the, I'm gonna give you to John.

505

Instead, John's gonna take over

responsibility from here on out.

506

Which again, I find fascinating for

a lot of reasons, but who knows?

507

Yeah.

508

After this, Jesus is gonna

be taken down from the cross.

509

He's given to his followers

and Joseph of Arimathea, a

510

respected member of the council.

511

That would've been the Sanhedrin.

512

So not all were anti or opposed to

Jesus because here comes Joseph who

513

comes forward and he's willing to

put forward his property, his tomb,

514

for Jesus to be laid in that tomb.

515

We know from later on that Nicodemus

is also gonna be involved in this

516

from the other gospel accounts.

517

And so this is the burial.

518

But Jesus is gonna be taken down

and he's gonna be laid in this tomb.

519

And we note there in verse 47, again,

Mary Magdalene and Mary, the mother

520

of Joseph, saw where he was laid.

521

That's significant because they're

gonna come back to find hi.

522

The tomb empty the next day.

523

So one of the opposition points

to the resurrection of Jesus,

524

they went to the wrong tomb.

525

The gospel writers are

careful to note, no.

526

These women knew where Jesus was.

527

They saw him laid there, and they

went back to that same tomb the next

528

day, and it ends up being empty.

529

But we'll cover that in

our reading tomorrow.

530

One point I wanna draw to your attention

is verse 39, where a centurion, not

531

a Jew, not one of the faithful, not

one of the closest ones, a centurion,

532

one of the people from the Italian

cohort, which means he's a Gentile.

533

In case you didn't catch that,

he's the one who confesses truly

534

this man was the son of God.

535

And if you've ever seen that one with

John Wayne, truly this man was a yeah.

536

It's, that's what's happening here.

537

But what's also fascinating is that

in verse one of Mark one, you'll

538

see, it says, this is the beginning

of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

539

The son of God.

540

And so what we have here are

two bookends of the book.

541

This is Mark's way of saying,

look, he's the Son of God.

542

Chapter one, verse one, and then the

crescendo, the high point of the book

543

where Jesus has confessed as the Son of

God, and this is right after he dies.

544

This is when he says, truly

this man was the son of God.

545

Mark's making a point for us

that we ought not to miss, and

546

it's simply Jesus is son of God.

547

So don't miss it.

548

Well, let's pray and then

we'll be done with this episode

549

of the Daily Bible Podcast.

550

God, we are rich in that we

have access to your word.

551

We are rich in that we have access to

all the different resources that we

552

have here with the study Bibles and the

online resources and Bible software.

553

I pray that we would take advantage

of it, that we wouldn't waste this

554

that we wouldn't waste this season,

this era, this dispensation that we

555

find ourselves on in as New Testament

Christians part of the church.

556

Who can learn so much and

glean so much from who you are.

557

And so thanks for this opportunity

to study your word, pray that

558

we would continue to do so and

grow in our understanding of you.

559

We pray in Jesus' name, amen.

560
