:a short week for most of us, but good job.
6
:You made it through week
one under your belt.
7
:I don't know how many are left, but
there's, there's a handful out there.
8
:Like a, over 150 days, something
like that left a school who knows,
9
:but Hey, we're through week one.
10
:So pat yourselves on the back.

12
:Something like that.

:It's a good, uh, milestone just
to celebrate God's faithfulness
16
:and bringing us through week.
17
:Number one.
18
:Uh, just awesome to a.
19
:Just think about.
20
:Everything in store this year,
all the different experiences
21
:that our kids are going to have,
what they're going to learn.
22
:They're going to get bigger.
23
:They're going to grow up these
time markers that are passing bias.
24
:And I know a lot of times it can
think, we can feel like, oh man,
25
:I just want to get through it, but
try to enjoy it in the process.
26
:Try to try to make those
memories together as a family.
27
:You know, after the kids are in
bed one night, do something crazy.
28
:Like get them up, wake them up,
get them out of bed, drive to
29
:Sonic and get some, some Sonic.
30
:Or if you're crunchy, then go,
go to whole foods and buy some
31
:granola or something like that.
32
:I don't know.
33
:Just do something fun with your kids.
34
:Just go in and celebrate and,
uh, and surprise them, make these
35
:memories that they're gonna look
back on and be like, man, I, I loved.
36
:My time.
37
:Uh, while I was growing up with my
family, those are good things for us
38
:to have a Friday also meant we had our
first men's breakfast this morning.
39
:And if you're not yet there and you're
listening to this before six 30.
40
:Hey, good on you because.
41
:Uh, we're gathering this morning,
men at six 30, and most of you are
42
:probably listening to this after six 30.
43
:And so, uh, we had our first Friday
morning men's breakfast at, uh, I hop
44
:there in Frisco off Dallas Parkway.
45
:We are going to be going through
the book disciplines of a godly man.
46
:And so this morning is, is just
intended to be a time to, to get
47
:together and see some of the other
guys that are interested in doing this.
48
:And again, the goal of this time
is not to be another sermon.
49
:The goal of this time is to be, uh,
more of, of life on life discipleship
50
:using this book and using the study
guide that comes along with it to just.
51
:Uh, talk through some of these
important subjects subjects like purity,
52
:marriage, fatherhood, friendships.
53
:Uh, the discipline of the
mind, how do we use our mind?
54
:Our intellect, devotion, prayer, worship,
integrity, tongue work, perseverance.
55
:All of those things, church leadership,
giving witness ministry, uh, these
56
:are all, uh, the disciplines.
57
:And, uh, and, and more than that,
that he covers in this book.
58
:The author is a guy named R
Kent Hughes, R being the initial
59
:Mata, not N a R E, but yeah.
60
:R K Hughes and, uh, such a good book.
61
:I've, I've gone through it before
looking forward to this time as men.
62
:And if you're listening to
this and you're going to, well,
63
:I wasn't there this morning.
64
:So does that mean I can't be there?
65
:No, not at all.
66
:In fact.
67
:Even if you're somebody that's
like, I want to be a part of that.
68
:I just don't know if I can be a part of
it every single week, be a part of the
69
:weeks that you can and we're going to
be there and we're going to be gathered.
70
:We're going to be having a good time
together as we go through this study.
71
:So just excited about that, but let's jump
into our daily Bible reading for the day.
72
:We are Jeremiah 32 33 and 34.
73
:Uh, Jeremiah chapter 32 opens
up, um, and we are opening up.
74
:It says the word of the Lord that came to
Jeremiah from the Lord in the 10th year
75
:of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was.
76
:The 18th year of Nebuchadnezzar.
77
:So is that a Chi was the final
king and he reigned for 11 years.
78
:So we are right around 5 87, 5 86.
79
:We're right on the precipice of the
fall of Jerusalem is where we're at.
80
:Uh, the city has been surrounded
by the Babylonians they're under
81
:siege that is going to end up
lasting in total for 30 months.
82
:By the time that's all said and done.
83
:And we're going to read in a little
bit from second Kings, 24 and 25,
84
:and also second Chronicles, 36,
where we're going to find out that.
85
:Uh, this actually spanned.
86
:Uh, parts of two years from the
ninth year, all the way to the
87
:11th year of Zedekiah is rain.
88
:We're smack dab in the middle
we're in the 10th year.
89
:So probably around 5 87 BC.
90
:And that's where this,
this chapter opens up.
91
:And so in verses two through five, Uh, at
this time, Jeremiah is still under arrest
92
:and being held in the palace prison here.
93
:And he was put there, remembered
by Zedekiah for prophesying that
94
:the city would fall and Zed would
be taken captive to Babylon.
95
:So he's been going back
and forth through this.
96
:Uh, there's, there's some good
things or some bad things.
97
:There's some, some
highs, there's some lows.
98
:And he's in prison right now.
99
:And the word comes to him here and
instructs him verses six through
100
:15 to buy a field from his cousin.
101
:Uh, toward the end of the siege
when the fall of Jerusalem and its
102
:surrounding cities was inevitable now.
103
:Put yourself in the shoes
of the prophet for a second.
104
:You're sitting there and the word
of the Lord comes to you and okay.
105
:That you're used to cause,
cause that's happened.
106
:Uh, up until this point.
107
:So that's not, that's not super
shocking, but you're, you're in prison.
108
:You're in the court of the palace guard.
109
:Uh, and, and you're sitting there in
the, the word of the Lord comes to
110
:you and doesn't say, Hey, Jeremiah,
Groton prophesied more about the
111
:fall of Jerusalem or confront
Hezekiah about a sin, or is that
112
:a guy about a sensor go confront
the people about their sinfulness?
113
:That's not what it says.
114
:It says, Hey, Jeremiah.
115
:I think I was looking on Zillow and I'm
pretty sure that your cousin listed their
116
:field on Zillow and they're selling it.
117
:Now talk about a bad sellers market.
118
:If, if you've got a foreign nation
that's laying siege to your city.
119
:Uh, there's probably not a people
interested in buying your land.
120
:Now I'm not suggesting that this
was actually a Zillow situation with
121
:him having his field up for sale.
122
:I'm just stressing the point that
people were not doing real estate
123
:transactions at this point in
time in Israel's circumstances.
124
:Uh, nobody who is looking to buy new
new property because they knew, and
125
:they could see the writing on the
wall that, Hey, things were bad and
126
:they were not getting any better.
127
:And the Babylonians were coming and some
people had already been taken captive.
128
:In fact two captivities to exiles
have taken place already 605 and 5 97.
129
:And it looks like things are
about to just totally collapse.
130
:And so for the Lord to tell Jeremiah,
Hey, I want you to go and buy a field.
131
:Th that that's not exactly, uh, what
Jeremiah was probably expecting to
132
:hear from the Lord at this point.
133
:Verses 16 through 24, then.
134
:Of chapter 32, Jeremiah praise.
135
:He, he goes back to the Lord
basically and says, ah, excuse me.
136
:Can what.
137
:Uh, so 16 through 24, he prays and
begins by praising God's power.
138
:It, which is good.
139
:And his justice and recounting the
ways he'd cared for Israel and warned.
140
:Then that all these
things would come to pass.
141
:And now the siege was laid in.
142
:The city, looked ready to fall.
143
:He's he St got, look you.
144
:You've you've laid all this out
and you you've, you've prophesied
145
:all of these things and I get it
and you've wanted me to deliver
146
:this message and it's been hard.
147
:And I've been imprisoned
and I've been beaten for it.
148
:And I, yeah, I understand all of that.
149
:Yet.
150
:I don't, I don't get this one.
151
:I don't get this one because
in verse 25, he says, why.
152
:Why, why do you want me
to buy this field yet?
153
:You?
154
:Oh Lord verse 25 has said to me by
the field for money and get witnesses.
155
:Though the city is given into
the hands of the Cal DNS, what
156
:are you trying to communicate?
157
:What are you trying to say?
158
:God?
159
:So here we get Jeremiah's perspective
in the midst of this prophetic, uh, back
160
:and forth between him and the Lord here.
161
:Versus 20, 60, 35, then God responds.
162
:And he responds confirming that.
163
:Yes, indeed.
164
:All of those things that Jeremiah said,
all of those things are going to happen.
165
:He hadn't changed his mind.
166
:He was going to punish Israel
for all of her rebellion in all
167
:of her sinful deeds against him.
168
:Versus 30, 60, 41.
169
:But.
170
:He then declared that he would bring
them back, bring the people back in
171
:love and plant them in the land with
an everlasting covenant of grace.
172
:And so you get God's promise
here to Jeremiah saying Jeremiah.
173
:Yes.
174
:The in the short term, in the immediate
future, Israel is going to fall.
175
:Judah is going to fall.
176
:Jerusalem is gonna fall and, and they're
going to be taken captive into Babylon.
177
:But that's not the end of my people.
178
:I will bring them back and I will plant
them with an everlasting covenant of
179
:grace out of, out of a love for them.
180
:That he has so.
181
:God tells the prophet to do this.
182
:Then in end, he says in verses 42 through
44, during that time, when he brings
183
:them back, Then, you know what fields are
going to be bought and sold once again.
184
:So.
185
:He had Jeremiah purchased this field as
a visual prophecy of what was going to
186
:happen in Israel, again, in the future.
187
:He has Jeremiah by this field that
would have been a place where things
188
:are planted as a reminder that you know
what God was going to bring the people
189
:back and plant them there in the city.
190
:Again, he was going to restore the
fortunes of Judah as we've talked about.
191
:Previously on the podcast.
192
:So this is a, an object lesson
for Jeremiah, and we've seen this
193
:before with the loincloth earlier
in the book and in other things,
194
:but this is what's going on here.
195
:He tells Jeremiah, and God
does this with his profits.
196
:He's going to do this with these.
197
:ZQ as well, but he does this where he
uses these object lessons to communicate.
198
:And so that's what he's doing
here with Jeremiah chapter 32.
199
:And this field that he
wants your mind to buy.
200
:In the midst of a siege,
not in the midst of it.
201
:The tail end of the siege, where it seems
pretty much like a foregone conclusion
202
:that Hey, Babylon is going to win.
203
:All right.
204
:Chapter 33, then.
205
:Chapter 33 opens in verse one.
206
:The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah
second time while he was still
207
:shut up in the court of the guard.
208
:So he's still under arrest
in Zedekiah's palace.
209
:So things have not gotten better.
210
:We're not getting, we're not moving on up.
211
:We're we're S we're still there.
212
:We're still were in prison and he's still
suffering under the, the, the persecution
213
:for his message of, of faithfulness
to what God had told him to prophesy.
214
:Uh, verses seven through eight of
this chapter, chapter 33 here, we
215
:see byproducts that the new covenant,
which is the forgiveness of sin.
216
:Look at verses seven and eight.
217
:I will restore the fortunes of Judah.
218
:What we just talked about.
219
:And the fortunes of Israel and
rebuild them as they were at
220
:first, I will cleanse them from
the guilt of their sin against me.
221
:And I will forgive all the guilt of
their sin and rebellion against me.
222
:That goes back to chapter 31 that
goes back to the new covenant.
223
:This is byproducts in the new covenant
language, the forgiveness of sin.
224
:This is going to be in the future.
225
:This is going to be during
the millennial kingdom.
226
:This is going to be, and we're
going to be reading about this and
227
:Zachariah his prophecy as well.
228
:When Israel looks on him, whom they
have pierced and they mourn, and they
229
:are repentant and they experienced
the forgiveness by putting their trust
230
:in Jesus as the atoning sacrifice.
231
:Now, You're saying you
get all that from here.
232
:I do, because the forgiveness
that he's talking about here
233
:only comes through Christ.
234
:All sin that has been
committed against God.
235
:I find it's, it's a tome.
236
:It finds that the
satisfaction of God's wrath.
237
:In the crucifixion.
238
:Even in the old Testament.
239
:All of the sin of the old Testament,
saints was a tone for not by
240
:the blood of bulls and goats.
241
:But it is in an active anticipatory faith.
242
:They were putting their trust
in God to forgive their sins
243
:as they were recognizing me and
my sin requires a sacrifice.
244
:It requires death.
245
:And ultimately the death of that animal
represented the death of another,
246
:that would come in the future and
that the lamb of God who takes away
247
:the sins of the world, he would be
the one that would die on the cross.
248
:And so.
249
:All atonement is, is met in Jesus in.
250
:And so when we think about.
251
:Here.
252
:And we think about the
forgiveness of sins.
253
:The only way that the people here are
going to have their sins forgiven is
254
:through the application of the blood
of Christ to them, as well as they
255
:put their faith and trust in him.
256
:And they repent from their sins.
257
:They confess their sins
and they turn to Jesus.
258
:As their savior.
259
:So verses seven and eight, the forgiveness
that's found there is forgiveness.
260
:That's only possible in Christ.
261
:And when we get to Zechariah
chapter 14, specifically, you're
262
:going to see that that's, that's
exactly what's going to happen.
263
:They're going to look on
him whom they have pierced.
264
:That's that's this idea of looking
to him in faith and in also in
265
:repentance, in confession saying
we were wrong to miss the Messiah.
266
:The first time we won't miss
him the second time, that's
267
:all going to take place.
268
:In the future for Israel, when the
Lord restores the fortunes of Judah.
269
:Uh, in verse seven there verse nine,
whereas all the nations, all the nations,
270
:we're going to hear the judgment there.
271
:Also at that time, gonna hear
the blessings, notice that.
272
:This city shall be to me, the name
of joy, a praise and glory before all
273
:the nations of the earth who shall
hear of the good that I do for them.
274
:And so just as that, the nations would
have heard of the judgment of God.
275
:And we've read about that in the profits.
276
:Uh, oh, no, God, what's, what's going on.
277
:Are you really going to do this?
278
:And what a, what a will the nations think?
279
:But God even told us people, you
know what my judgment is going
280
:to cause you to be a byword.
281
:That's not a good thing, by the
way, a byword among the nations.
282
:They're going to look at you and
they're going to scoff at you.
283
:Well, There's a reversal of that
coming in the future where the
284
:nations are going to look at Israel
and they're going to recognize the
285
:blessing of God upon his people there.
286
:Verse 11, the voice of mirth.
287
:I talk about the, the warden birth a lot.
288
:I feel like.
289
:Because it's that word?
290
:That doesn't sound like what it means.
291
:Mirth sounds like, oh, mirth, man.
292
:How you feeling?
293
:Oh, I don't know.
294
:I'm feeling pretty Murphy today.
295
:No.
296
:And joyfulness emit celebration.
297
:Exuberance and the voice of mirth
verse 11 is going to come back.
298
:It's going to come back and the love, the
celebration, the joyfulness, there will
299
:be present again in the nation, the voice
of the bridegroom, the voice of the bride,
300
:the voices of those who sing as they bring
thank offerings to the house of the Lord.
301
:The joy is coming back to the, to
the place the joy is coming back.
302
:To Israel, the Joy's coming back to
Jerusalem there, which is, is so good, uh,
303
:because of the steadfast love of the Lord.
304
:And that's verse 11, give thanks to
the Lord of hosts for the load is good
305
:for his steadfast love endures forever,
some 100 verse five, some 1 36, right?
306
:Those are repeated refrains
there that the steadfast love
307
:of the Lord endures forever.
308
:And it will again be
showered upon his people.
309
:Verse 13.
310
:A word here that may stand out to
you that you may be unfamiliar with.
311
:And that is the word, the Scheffler.
312
:The Scheffler here was a it's farmland.
313
:That was often at the point
of conflict between Israel
314
:and the surrounding nations,
particularly the, the Philistines.
315
:Uh, this was the, some of the outlying
areas around the city where they would
316
:pasture and where they would have
their sheep and where they grow things.
317
:The Scheffler.
318
:That is, is, is what's in
view there in verse 13.
319
:And that's no longer
going to be contested.
320
:There's going to be a place
where the flocks are, again,
321
:going to pass under the hands.
322
:The one who counts them says the Lord.
323
:So there's a, the vision of the
restoration of the, the, the shepherding.
324
:Uh, element the agriculture.
325
:Um, of, of Israel there.
326
:And so that's going to be coming in the
future as well, verses 15 through 17.
327
:Then again, the branch, you remember
the branch, we talked about the branch.
328
:Uh, Jesus of Nazareth, the
branch man from the branch town.
329
:Uh, well, the branch is back
here in verses 15 through 17.
330
:He's coming.
331
:And he's going to fulfill the promises.
332
:God has made about a Davidic king who will
always reign from the throne of David.
333
:In other words, Kind of the rest
of chapter 33 is like, okay,
334
:how is this going to happen?
335
:Well, it's going to happen when
the Davidic king comes, when the
336
:king of the Davidic covenant from
second, Samuel seven really takes
337
:the throne and sits on the throne.
338
:And he is the one that's
going to rule from there.
339
:And that's verse 15, the righteous branch.
340
:Who's going to spring up for David
and execute justice and righteousness.
341
:So.
342
:In those days, Judah will be saved when
the Messiah comes and this is the future.
343
:This is the millennial kingdom.
344
:It raining while Christ is on earth.
345
:Now I mentioned.
346
:I think last episode or maybe
the one right before that, about.
347
:God said lucky if the sun stopped shining
and the moon stopped shining at night,
348
:then I will forget my people, Israel.
349
:Hey, look, we get another one of
those moments here, because I know I'm
350
:talking about dispensationalism again.
351
:And I know you might be
thinking that is that.
352
:Uh, dispensationalism.
353
:Is that okay?
354
:Listen again.
355
:Does does God still have
a plan for his people?
356
:Israel look at verses 20 through 26.
357
:Look at verses 20 through 26.
358
:Look at verses 20 through
26 of Jeremiah 33.
359
:Okay.
360
:Jeremiah 33 20.
361
:Thus says the Lord, if you can
break my covenant with the day
362
:and my covenant with the night.
363
:So that day and night will not
come at their appointed time.
364
:Then also my covenant with David, my
servant may be broken so that he shall
365
:not have a son to reign on his throne.
366
:And my covenant with the
Levitical priests, my ministers.
367
:So again, God says, look, if you
can stop the day from coming or
368
:the night from coming fine, then
I'll break my covenant with Israel.
369
:Implication is he's not going to do it.
370
:It's not possible.
371
:Right?
372
:Look at verses 25 to 26.
373
:This is the Lord.
374
:If I have not established my
covenant with day and night and the
375
:fixed order of heaven and earth.
376
:Then I will reject the
offspring of Jacobs.
377
:When is God going to reject
the offspring of Jacobs?
378
:When is God going to reject Israel?
379
:If he has not established his
covenant with day and night and the
380
:fixed order of heaven and earth.
381
:In other words, If the
data doesn't show up.
382
:If the night doesn't come,
then we can say, okay.
383
:Yeah, Israel's done.
384
:It's out of the way.
385
:And now he's turned his
attention to someone else.
386
:That's not going to happen.
387
:That hasn't happened yet.
388
:And so Israel is still.
389
:Israel is still on the scene.
390
:There's still a future for Israel.
391
:And so right now we're in the dispensation
of the church, the church age, but y'all,
392
:God has not dealt with this people.
393
:Don't be swept up by.
394
:Uh, you know, this church father
says this and this church father
395
:and, and dispensationalism, didn't
come around to the 18 hundreds.
396
:Let's go to the Bible.
397
:Kate let's, let's get into God's word.
398
:Let's read the old Testament.
399
:See, what does that mean?
400
:What does that mean in verses
25 and 26 of Jeremiah 33 in
401
:verses 20 and 21 of Jeremiah 33.
402
:What does that mean?
403
:If not, God is not done with his people.
404
:I don't know any other way than to read
it plainly and say, he's he still is.
405
:He's going to return
the fortunes to Judah.
406
:Then I will reject the offspring of
Jacob and David, my servant, and will
407
:not choose one of his offspring to
rule over the offspring of Abraham,
408
:Isaac and Jacob for I will restore
their fortunes whose fortunes.
409
:The fortunes of the offspring of Jacob.
410
:And David, those are the Israelites.
411
:Those are the, the, the nation of
Israel, the offspring of Abraham,
412
:Isaac, and Jacob for I will restore
their fortunes and have mercy on them.
413
:Y'all that is not a promise
given to the church.
414
:That's a promise given to Israel and
we just need to let the text speak.
415
:Let's put everything aside and let the
text speak in passages like this one.
416
:All right, I'm done
with that for a minute.
417
:I think at least.
418
:Chapter 34, basically chapter 34, 1
through five Jeremiah prophesies of.
419
:Of Zedekiah's captivity and death,
and this is going to be bad.
420
:When it does happen.
421
:We're going to read about this in second
Kings 24 and 25 and second Chronicles, 36.
422
:But is that a guy's death is going to be
a cruel death indeed, because he refuses.
423
:He refuses to listen to
the word of the Lord.
424
:And so.
425
:Uh, th that's why this is going to happen.
426
:And, uh, this is, uh, this is
going to be a bad situation.
427
:He's going to die in Babylon and it
says there you're going to die in peace.
428
:But when we get there, you're going
to see what happens before that.
429
:Don't be fooled by that.
430
:That doesn't mean that, Hey, things
are going to be good for you.
431
:He's saying, look, you're not
going to die in the battle.
432
:You're not going to die in Jerusalem.
433
:You're not going to die
here in the city in war.
434
:You're going to be taken captive.
435
:You're going to die in peace in Babylon,
not in conflict, but in peace, but that's
436
:about as far as that piece is going to go.
437
:Because when we, when we get there
now this death, and I you're gonna
438
:have to tune back in to find out what
happens in this death, but this death.
439
:Uh, well, before the death, I
should say, yeah, he dies fine.
440
:Of old age or, or whatever in
Babylon, but what happens before
441
:that is that a cow has the.
442
:Th the end of Zedekiah's life is anything
but something that is desirable here in
443
:the prophet is, is warning him of this.
444
:In verses seven to 22, he prophesies
that God is going to punish Judah
445
:for not freeing her slaves there.
446
:She was supposed to do so.
447
:Th the, again, this goes back to an,
an infringement upon the law there.
448
:Uh, where he goes back and says much
like he had done with the Sabbath.
449
:Hey, you've also neglected to free
the Sojourner to free the slave.
450
:And so you're going to be taken
into captivity yourselves now.
451
:Uh, because you didn't set them free.
452
:So 34, 1 through five, a.
453
:Is that a kind of, you're
going to die in captivity.
454
:Um, Uh, 34 7 3 22.
455
:Uh, Hey Israel, you guys were supposed to
free the slaves and you never did that.
456
:And now here comes enslavement to you.
457
:So, uh, 34, we move off of the good
news of chapter 32 and 33 and back
458
:to the message of impending judgment.
459
:And, uh, and that's where we find in 34.
460
:So.
461
:All right, let me pray.
462
:And, uh, before I do that, hold
on, let me, let me just say this.
463
:Listen, if, if you disagree with the
dispensationalism thing, um, It's okay.
464
:It's okay.
465
:This is not an issue of
Christian, not Christian.
466
:This is an issue of
interpretation of text.
467
:This is an issue of that we
would put on a second tier.
468
:We think it's important because yeah,
it does influence how we interpret
469
:the Bible and interpret end times.
470
:Uh, prophecy and interpret the
book of revelation, but this is not
471
:something where we're saying somebody
who disagrees with our view on this.
472
:Somebody who's a covenant
theologian is wrong or.
473
:Dumb or an unbeliever.
474
:That's not it at all.
475
:I have very newsflash, I have very
strong convictions about this.
476
:I am.
477
:I am a through and through
dispensationalist because I do believe
478
:that there are promises here that
are yet to be fulfilled for Israel.
479
:But I just want you to
know if that's not you.
480
:I, I get that.
481
:I get that.
482
:You'll notice that it does come
up in my preaching, but not often.
483
:And so if your question is, man,
can I be here at this church and be
484
:somebody who's not dispensationalist.
485
:Yeah, the answer is, yeah.
486
:Now we're not going to put you up
in a classroom and have you teach on
487
:eschatology, but we want you here.
488
:We, we, we love you.
489
:This is not an issue where
we're going to divide fellowship
490
:because of something like this.
491
:But, um, But also know
where we fall on that.
492
:Uh, in case you were unaware, but
that's all I got to say on that.
493
:Let me pray.
494
:And then we'll be done.
495
:God, thanks for this day.
496
:And thanks for your word and thanks
for the fact that we get to pick it up
497
:and read it and understand some of it.
498
:And God, we are grateful for the future.
499
:We are grateful for, as I was talking
about earlier in this episode,
500
:the atonement of Jesus Christ,
we were grateful that our sins.
501
:We're paid for by Jesus, every single
one of them at the cross cross past
502
:present and future that there is none.
503
:Uh, there's not a sin that we're
going to commit that wasn't dealt
504
:with already by Jesus at the cross.
505
:And that doesn't mean that we want
to all our Roman six, one sin, more
506
:and more that Grace May abound.
507
:It's quite the opposite.
508
:May never be, as Paul says, no, we want to
be those that, that are so overwhelmingly
509
:grateful for the death of Christ for us.
510
:That we live lives of holiness
and godliness in response.
511
:Uh, because, uh, this thing called
Christianity is a relationship.
512
:It's not a transaction.
513
:It's not here.
514
:I'm going to do all these things.
515
:And then God's going to do this for me.
516
:It's I love Jesus.
517
:Jesus is my savior.
518
:Jesus is a person who the Bible tells me
is seated at the right hand of the father.
519
:Always living to make
intercession for me right now.
520
:And so God, we want that.
521
:To be true of our perception
of what Christianity's about.
522
:And the last thing we want to
do is grieve him by living a
523
:life of debauchery and sin.
524
:And so God keep us, uh,
sensitive towards sin.
525
:Use your spirit to do that in our lives.
526
:And may we keep short accounts with you?
527
:I pray in Jesus name.
528
:Amen.
529
:Amen.
530
:All right guys.
531
:Well, Hey, tune in again,
tomorrow as we continue with.
532
:Another another, that's an easy
word for you to say, not for me.
533
:Another episode of the daily Bible
podcast, keeping your Bibles.
534
:Bye.
