00:00:59.692 --> 00:00:13.207
Hope is an essential ingredient
00:00:13.274 --> 00:00:16.410
Hope is an essential ingredient in the life
00:00:16.477 --> 00:00:17.711
In the life of every human being.
00:00:17.778 --> 00:00:19.980
Of every human being. without hope, you may exist,
00:00:20.047 --> 00:00:22.249
Without hope, you may exist, but you will not live the life
00:00:22.316 --> 00:00:23.884
But you will not live the life that christ came to give you.
00:00:23.951 --> 00:00:26.120
That christ came to give you. according to john 10,
00:00:26.187 --> 00:00:27.755
According to john 10, it says christ came to give life
00:00:27.822 --> 00:00:29.824
It says christ came to give life more abundantly.
00:00:29.890 --> 00:00:31.559
More abundantly. and in order
00:00:31.625 --> 00:00:32.026
And in order for you to live that life,
00:00:32.093 --> 00:00:33.094
For you to live that life, you must be filled with hope.
00:00:33.160 --> 00:00:35.529
You must be filled with hope. hope is your expectation
00:00:35.596 --> 00:00:37.498
Hope is your expectation that the god who promised you
00:00:37.565 --> 00:00:38.999
That the god who promised you is able
00:00:39.066 --> 00:00:39.533
Is able to do what he said he would do.
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:42.470
To do what he said he would do. when you read the word of god,
00:00:42.536 --> 00:00:43.904
When you read the word of god, it says that our god is able
00:00:43.971 --> 00:00:45.339
It says that our god is able to do exceedingly, abundantly
00:00:45.406 --> 00:00:47.374
To do exceedingly, abundantly above all that we could ask,
00:00:47.441 --> 00:00:48.776
Above all that we could ask, think or imagine.
00:00:48.843 --> 00:00:51.278
Think or imagine. now, for us,
00:00:51.345 --> 00:00:52.079
Now, for us, it might be difficult to fathom
00:00:52.146 --> 00:00:53.948
It might be difficult to fathom an individual
00:00:54.014 --> 00:00:54.849
An individual who could do anything
00:00:54.915 --> 00:00:56.050
Who could do anything beyond what we could ask,
00:00:56.117 --> 00:00:57.551
Beyond what we could ask, think or imagine.
00:00:57.618 --> 00:00:58.886
Think or imagine. but when it comes to god,
00:00:58.953 --> 00:01:00.054
But when it comes to god, it is impossible for god
00:01:00.121 --> 00:01:02.723
It is impossible for god to lie.
00:01:02.790 --> 00:01:04.859
To lie. church, it is impossible
00:01:04.925 --> 00:01:07.328
Church, it is impossible for god to lie.
00:01:07.394 --> 00:01:10.397
For god to lie. that means that
00:01:10.464 --> 00:01:11.031
That means that whatever he's promised you,
00:01:11.098 --> 00:01:13.334
Whatever he's promised you, he will perform it.
00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:15.569
He will perform it. whatever he has told you
00:01:15.636 --> 00:01:17.471
Whatever he has told you in his word,
00:01:17.538 --> 00:01:18.706
In his word, it doesn't matter
00:01:18.772 --> 00:01:19.507
It doesn't matter how much time it takes,
00:01:19.573 --> 00:01:21.041
How much time it takes, it doesn't matter
00:01:21.108 --> 00:01:21.842
It doesn't matter what you go through.
00:01:21.909 --> 00:01:22.943
What you go through. it doesn't matter
00:01:23.010 --> 00:01:23.811
It doesn't matter all of the setbacks you face.
00:01:23.878 --> 00:01:25.679
All of the setbacks you face. if god said it,
00:01:25.746 --> 00:01:27.014
If god said it, he has to do it
00:01:27.081 --> 00:01:28.749
He has to do it because it is impossible
00:01:28.816 --> 00:01:30.651
Because it is impossible for god to lie.
00:01:30.718 --> 00:01:34.855
For god to lie. (applause)
00:01:34.922 --> 00:01:39.860
(applause) so how is it
00:01:39.927 --> 00:01:40.628
So how is it that we have a god
00:01:40.694 --> 00:01:41.562
That we have a god who cannot lie?
00:01:41.629 --> 00:01:42.730
Who cannot lie? and yet we fail
00:01:42.796 --> 00:01:43.764
And yet we fail to believe in him?
00:01:43.831 --> 00:01:47.601
To believe in him? it's because
00:01:47.668 --> 00:01:48.369
It's because we do not understand
00:01:48.435 --> 00:01:49.937
We do not understand what hope truly is.
00:01:50.004 --> 00:01:53.941
What hope truly is. hope is essential.
00:01:54.008 --> 00:01:55.910
Hope is essential. this is why paul listed
00:01:55.976 --> 00:01:57.278
This is why paul listed hope in 1 corinthians 13.
00:01:57.344 --> 00:01:59.914
Hope in 1 corinthians 13. he said, “now abides faith,
00:01:59.980 --> 00:02:01.916
He said, “now abides faith, hope and love.
00:02:01.982 --> 00:02:04.251
Hope and love. but the greatest of these
00:02:04.318 --> 00:02:05.686
But the greatest of these is love.”
00:02:05.753 --> 00:02:06.887
Is love.” look at this verse
00:02:06.954 --> 00:02:07.855
Look at this verse as an equation.
00:02:07.922 --> 00:02:09.089
As an equation. what connects faith and love?
00:02:09.156 --> 00:02:12.393
What connects faith and love? hope.
00:02:12.459 --> 00:02:13.894
Hope. stuck between your
00:02:13.961 --> 00:02:15.196
Stuck between your faith and god's love is hope.
00:02:15.262 --> 00:02:19.767
Faith and god's love is hope. love is the greatest. why?
00:02:19.833 --> 00:02:21.635
Love is the greatest. why? because love comes from god.
00:02:21.702 --> 00:02:22.903
Because love comes from god. the bible says god is love.
00:02:22.970 --> 00:02:24.872
The bible says god is love. the bible tells us in
00:02:24.939 --> 00:02:26.173
The bible tells us in john 3:16,
00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:27.107
John 3:16, god so loved the world
00:02:27.174 --> 00:02:28.275
God so loved the world that he gave
00:02:28.342 --> 00:02:28.909
That he gave his only begotten son
00:02:28.976 --> 00:02:29.843
His only begotten son that whosoever believes in him
00:02:29.910 --> 00:02:31.579
That whosoever believes in him should not perish,
00:02:31.645 --> 00:02:32.413
Should not perish, but have everlasting life.
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.014
But have everlasting life. god is the giver of love.
00:02:34.081 --> 00:02:36.250
God is the giver of love. it pours out from heaven.
00:02:36.317 --> 00:02:38.018
It pours out from heaven. faith is what you give to god
00:02:38.085 --> 00:02:40.387
Faith is what you give to god from your life here on earth.
00:02:40.454 --> 00:02:42.756
From your life here on earth. hebrews 11.
00:02:42.823 --> 00:02:44.024
Hebrews 11. it says, “without faith
00:02:44.091 --> 00:02:45.693
It says, “without faith it is impossible to please god.”
00:02:45.759 --> 00:02:49.830
It is impossible to please god.” if you came here today
00:02:49.897 --> 00:02:51.465
If you came here today trying god, try again.
00:02:51.532 --> 00:02:55.636
Trying god, try again. because you don't try god,
00:02:55.703 --> 00:02:57.037
Because you don't try god, you have faith in god.
00:02:57.104 --> 00:03:00.808
You have faith in god. now, when you have faith in god
00:03:00.874 --> 00:03:02.643
Now, when you have faith in god and you send your faith
00:03:02.710 --> 00:03:03.744
And you send your faith to heaven, the challenge
00:03:03.811 --> 00:03:05.279
To heaven, the challenge in your life exists
00:03:05.346 --> 00:03:06.847
In your life exists whenever there's a distance
00:03:06.914 --> 00:03:08.449
Whenever there's a distance between what you're
00:03:08.515 --> 00:03:09.316
Between what you're believing for
00:03:09.383 --> 00:03:10.251
Believing for and what he's
00:03:10.317 --> 00:03:10.784
And what he's pouring out in love.
00:03:10.851 --> 00:03:13.053
Pouring out in love. and that's where hope comes in.
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.589
And that's where hope comes in. hope connects you
00:03:15.656 --> 00:03:17.324
Hope connects you to that promise.
00:03:17.391 --> 00:03:18.225
To that promise. hope is your expectation
00:03:18.292 --> 00:03:20.961
Hope is your expectation that god will perform
00:03:21.028 --> 00:03:22.529
That god will perform what he promised
00:03:22.596 --> 00:03:23.297
What he promised he would perform
00:03:23.364 --> 00:03:24.198
He would perform when he's ready
00:03:24.265 --> 00:03:25.032
When he's ready to perform it in your life,
00:03:25.099 --> 00:03:26.667
To perform it in your life, when you are prepared
00:03:26.734 --> 00:03:27.434
When you are prepared to receive it.
00:03:27.501 --> 00:03:30.037
To receive it. (that's good.)
00:03:30.104 --> 00:03:30.771
(that's good.) a lot of people want god to do
00:03:30.838 --> 00:03:32.339
A lot of people want god to do what they want to do
00:03:32.406 --> 00:03:33.474
What they want to do right away.
00:03:33.540 --> 00:03:36.243
Right away. it's what i call
00:03:36.310 --> 00:03:36.844
It's what i call “are we there yet
00:03:36.910 --> 00:03:37.611
“are we there yet christians.”
00:03:37.678 --> 00:03:40.547
Christians.” how many of you have
00:03:40.614 --> 00:03:41.081
How many of you have taken that road trip?
00:03:41.148 --> 00:03:43.984
Taken that road trip? you tell your kids
00:03:44.051 --> 00:03:44.752
You tell your kids we're going on a road trip
00:03:44.818 --> 00:03:45.786
We're going on a road trip and you ain't past the mailbox
00:03:45.853 --> 00:03:47.121
And you ain't past the mailbox and they go, “are we there yet?”
00:03:47.187 --> 00:03:50.324
And they go, “are we there yet?” god's got some kids
00:03:50.391 --> 00:03:51.392
God's got some kids that are like that.
00:03:51.458 --> 00:03:53.827
That are like that. they find a promise.
00:03:53.894 --> 00:03:55.162
They find a promise. they hear a word.
00:03:55.229 --> 00:03:56.463
They hear a word. they receive a revelation
00:03:56.530 --> 00:03:57.865
They receive a revelation from god in their life.
00:03:57.931 --> 00:03:59.233
From god in their life. and the next thing
00:03:59.300 --> 00:03:59.867
And the next thing they start asking
00:03:59.933 --> 00:04:00.501
They start asking is, “are we there yet?
00:04:00.567 --> 00:04:01.802
Is, “are we there yet? are we there yet?
00:04:01.869 --> 00:04:03.203
Are we there yet? are we there yet?”
00:04:03.270 --> 00:04:05.239
Are we there yet?” this is why paul tells
00:04:05.306 --> 00:04:06.740
This is why paul tells this church in hebrews
00:04:06.807 --> 00:04:08.375
This church in hebrews “we have the full assurance
00:04:08.442 --> 00:04:11.912
“we have the full assurance of hope.” say that with me.
00:04:11.979 --> 00:04:13.514
Of hope.” say that with me. “we have the full assurance
00:04:13.580 --> 00:04:16.250
“we have the full assurance of hope.”
00:04:16.317 --> 00:04:16.750
Of hope.” how do we have
00:04:16.817 --> 00:04:17.651
How do we have a full assurance?
00:04:17.718 --> 00:04:18.686
A full assurance? because god said it
00:04:18.752 --> 00:04:21.221
Because god said it plain and simple.
00:04:21.288 --> 00:04:24.224
Plain and simple. he said it.
00:04:24.291 --> 00:04:26.026
He said it. and even still you hear it,
00:04:26.093 --> 00:04:27.294
And even still you hear it, and you go,
00:04:27.361 --> 00:04:27.861
And you go, “how is it impossible
00:04:27.928 --> 00:04:28.929
“how is it impossible for somebody to lie?”
00:04:28.996 --> 00:04:29.730
For somebody to lie?” well, you have to understand
00:04:29.797 --> 00:04:30.631
Well, you have to understand this.
00:04:30.698 --> 00:04:30.831
This. you're not talking about a man.
00:04:30.898 --> 00:04:32.032
You're not talking about a man. you're talking about god.
00:04:32.099 --> 00:04:34.001
You're talking about god. you could go to
00:04:34.068 --> 00:04:34.635
You could go to some of the brightest
00:04:34.702 --> 00:04:35.402
Some of the brightest minds on earth
00:04:35.469 --> 00:04:36.537
Minds on earth and ask them questions,
00:04:36.603 --> 00:04:37.971
And ask them questions, and they will answer
00:04:38.038 --> 00:04:38.706
And they will answer those questions like this.
00:04:38.772 --> 00:04:39.840
Those questions like this. “i think so.”
00:04:39.907 --> 00:04:42.710
“i think so.” why?
00:04:42.776 --> 00:04:43.077
Why? because they don't
00:04:43.143 --> 00:04:43.677
Because they don't have full certainty.
00:04:43.744 --> 00:04:44.678
Have full certainty. there's a margin,
00:04:44.745 --> 00:04:45.612
There's a margin, a measure of doubt.
00:04:45.679 --> 00:04:46.647
A measure of doubt. they think that
00:04:46.714 --> 00:04:47.247
They think that there might be a chance
00:04:47.314 --> 00:04:48.415
There might be a chance that they could be wrong.
00:04:48.482 --> 00:04:49.516
That they could be wrong. well, guess what?
00:04:49.583 --> 00:04:50.084
Well, guess what? when god answers the question,
00:04:50.150 --> 00:04:51.685
When god answers the question, there is no margin of doubt.
00:04:51.752 --> 00:04:52.986
There is no margin of doubt. there is no error or chance
00:04:53.053 --> 00:04:54.555
There is no error or chance that he could be wrong.
00:04:54.621 --> 00:04:55.489
That he could be wrong. he knows everything.
00:04:55.556 --> 00:04:59.426
He knows everything. (applause)
00:04:59.493 --> 00:05:03.297
(applause) so whenever he says that
00:05:03.364 --> 00:05:04.798
So whenever he says that he's going to do something,
00:05:04.865 --> 00:05:06.400
He's going to do something, he already has the power
00:05:06.467 --> 00:05:07.501
He already has the power to do what he said he could do
00:05:07.568 --> 00:05:08.602
To do what he said he could do and he already knows
00:05:08.669 --> 00:05:09.269
And he already knows that he's going to do it.
00:05:09.336 --> 00:05:10.170
That he's going to do it. so if he knows everything
00:05:10.237 --> 00:05:11.238
So if he knows everything and he can do everything,
00:05:11.305 --> 00:05:12.172
And he can do everything, he cannot tell a lie
00:05:12.239 --> 00:05:13.607
He cannot tell a lie because once he says it,
00:05:13.674 --> 00:05:15.042
Because once he says it, it has to be done.
00:05:15.109 --> 00:05:18.846
It has to be done. this is why paul begins
00:05:18.912 --> 00:05:21.014
This is why paul begins hebrews 6 by saying,
00:05:21.081 --> 00:05:22.349
Hebrews 6 by saying, let's leave behind
00:05:22.416 --> 00:05:23.784
Let's leave behind the elementary things.
00:05:23.851 --> 00:05:26.420
The elementary things. he's saying, quit asking god
00:05:26.487 --> 00:05:28.021
He's saying, quit asking god when we're going to get there
00:05:28.088 --> 00:05:30.591
When we're going to get there and just believe that
00:05:30.657 --> 00:05:31.625
And just believe that if he said you're going,
00:05:31.692 --> 00:05:32.926
If he said you're going, it's already done.
00:05:32.993 --> 00:05:35.662
It's already done. he said,
00:05:35.729 --> 00:05:36.096
He said, “for when god made
00:05:36.163 --> 00:05:36.797
“for when god made a promise to abraham,”
00:05:36.864 --> 00:05:38.532
A promise to abraham,” he uses abraham here
00:05:38.599 --> 00:05:40.334
He uses abraham here as an example.
00:05:40.401 --> 00:05:41.702
As an example. why?
00:05:41.769 --> 00:05:43.337
Why? because he's
00:05:43.404 --> 00:05:43.771
Because he's writing to the hebrews.
00:05:43.837 --> 00:05:46.707
Writing to the hebrews. understand that
00:05:46.774 --> 00:05:47.474
Understand that the people he's writing to
00:05:47.541 --> 00:05:49.376
The people he's writing to believe in jesus christ,
00:05:49.443 --> 00:05:50.878
Believe in jesus christ, they have accepted him
00:05:50.944 --> 00:05:52.045
They have accepted him as the son of god.
00:05:52.112 --> 00:05:53.247
As the son of god. they've accepted him
00:05:53.313 --> 00:05:54.615
They've accepted him as the risen savior.
00:05:54.681 --> 00:05:56.784
As the risen savior. but they come from
00:05:56.850 --> 00:05:57.718
But they come from a jewish tradition.
00:05:57.785 --> 00:06:00.320
A jewish tradition. they're not only
00:06:00.387 --> 00:06:01.622
They're not only jewish in their faith,
00:06:01.688 --> 00:06:02.990
Jewish in their faith, they're jewish
00:06:03.056 --> 00:06:03.690
They're jewish in their nationality.
00:06:03.757 --> 00:06:04.892
In their nationality. so for them to leave
00:06:04.958 --> 00:06:06.693
So for them to leave judaism for christianity
00:06:06.760 --> 00:06:08.595
Judaism for christianity was a major jump.
00:06:08.662 --> 00:06:12.733
Was a major jump. and when they left,
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:14.001
And when they left, they left expecting
00:06:14.067 --> 00:06:15.903
They left expecting jesus christ to come back.
00:06:15.969 --> 00:06:19.306
Jesus christ to come back. why?
00:06:19.373 --> 00:06:20.107
Why? acts 1, “ye men of galilee,
00:06:20.174 --> 00:06:22.543
Acts 1, “ye men of galilee, why stand ye here gazing?
00:06:22.609 --> 00:06:24.778
Why stand ye here gazing? this same jesus you will see
00:06:24.845 --> 00:06:27.915
This same jesus you will see just as you saw him go.”
00:06:27.981 --> 00:06:30.184
Just as you saw him go.” they were waiting for jesus
00:06:30.250 --> 00:06:31.752
They were waiting for jesus to return in their lifetime.
00:06:31.819 --> 00:06:34.788
To return in their lifetime. they believed that
00:06:34.855 --> 00:06:35.789
They believed that he was coming back
00:06:35.856 --> 00:06:37.024
He was coming back sooner than later.
00:06:37.090 --> 00:06:39.893
Sooner than later. and yet many years have passed
00:06:39.960 --> 00:06:41.595
And yet many years have passed and decades have gone on.
00:06:41.662 --> 00:06:43.096
And decades have gone on. and those who didn't think
00:06:43.163 --> 00:06:44.231
And those who didn't think that they would ever
00:06:44.298 --> 00:06:45.032
That they would ever see death before
00:06:45.098 --> 00:06:46.166
See death before jesus came back, they've died.
00:06:46.233 --> 00:06:47.701
Jesus came back, they've died. and those who never thought
00:06:47.768 --> 00:06:48.569
And those who never thought they'd be persecuted,
00:06:48.635 --> 00:06:49.570
They'd be persecuted, they've been persecuted
00:06:49.636 --> 00:06:50.637
They've been persecuted underneath roman emperors
00:06:50.704 --> 00:06:51.738
Underneath roman emperors and those that thought
00:06:51.805 --> 00:06:52.539
And those that thought it was going to be different,
00:06:52.606 --> 00:06:53.474
It was going to be different, it wasn't different.
00:06:53.540 --> 00:06:54.408
It wasn't different. and they're wondering,
00:06:54.475 --> 00:06:55.042
And they're wondering, where's jesus?
00:06:55.108 --> 00:06:58.946
Where's jesus? and paul says, listen, guys,
00:06:59.012 --> 00:07:01.448
And paul says, listen, guys, don't get sluggish.
00:07:01.515 --> 00:07:04.051
Don't get sluggish. don't give up hope.
00:07:04.117 --> 00:07:06.453
Don't give up hope. remain diligent
00:07:06.520 --> 00:07:07.554
Remain diligent all the way
00:07:07.621 --> 00:07:08.622
All the way to the end
00:07:08.689 --> 00:07:09.490
To the end in the full assurance.
00:07:09.556 --> 00:07:12.059
In the full assurance. and if you find it
00:07:12.125 --> 00:07:13.627
And if you find it hard to believe,
00:07:13.694 --> 00:07:14.928
Hard to believe, just look to those, verse 12,
00:07:14.995 --> 00:07:17.831
Just look to those, verse 12, imitate those
00:07:17.898 --> 00:07:20.734
Imitate those who, through faith and patience,
00:07:20.801 --> 00:07:22.503
Who, through faith and patience, inherit the promises.
00:07:22.569 --> 00:07:25.072
Inherit the promises. paul gives these people
00:07:25.138 --> 00:07:27.241
Paul gives these people some great life advice.
00:07:27.307 --> 00:07:29.643
Some great life advice. if you want to be successful,
00:07:29.710 --> 00:07:31.845
If you want to be successful, find somebody who's successful
00:07:31.912 --> 00:07:33.947
Find somebody who's successful and imitate them.
00:07:34.014 --> 00:07:37.351
And imitate them. and the reason i say that is
00:07:37.417 --> 00:07:38.585
And the reason i say that is because there's a lot of people
00:07:38.652 --> 00:07:39.620
Because there's a lot of people who are imitating
00:07:39.686 --> 00:07:40.487
Who are imitating the behaviors of individuals
00:07:40.554 --> 00:07:41.722
The behaviors of individuals who've never succeeded at much.
00:07:41.788 --> 00:07:45.626
Who've never succeeded at much. they've been branded
00:07:45.692 --> 00:07:46.593
They've been branded and they've been marketed,
00:07:46.660 --> 00:07:47.494
And they've been marketed, and they make you think
00:07:47.561 --> 00:07:48.328
And they make you think they're really good at
00:07:48.395 --> 00:07:48.996
They're really good at what they do.
00:07:49.062 --> 00:07:49.429
What they do. but the truth is,
00:07:49.496 --> 00:07:50.097
But the truth is, they're held up
00:07:50.163 --> 00:07:50.664
They're held up by a bunch of other stuff.
00:07:50.731 --> 00:07:53.066
By a bunch of other stuff. if you want to be successful,
00:07:53.133 --> 00:07:54.968
If you want to be successful, you find somebody who's
00:07:55.035 --> 00:07:56.069
You find somebody who's successful at what
00:07:56.136 --> 00:07:56.870
Successful at what you want to be successful
00:07:56.937 --> 00:07:57.771
You want to be successful at and just do what they do.
00:07:57.838 --> 00:08:02.376
At and just do what they do. you know, i often watch
00:08:02.442 --> 00:08:03.844
You know, i often watch young kids as they imitate
00:08:03.911 --> 00:08:06.079
Young kids as they imitate individuals and you think,
00:08:06.146 --> 00:08:06.947
Individuals and you think, why did they do that?
00:08:07.014 --> 00:08:09.650
Why did they do that? and then
00:08:09.716 --> 00:08:10.918
And then we'll get together as a family
00:08:10.984 --> 00:08:12.185
We'll get together as a family and somebody will pop in
00:08:12.252 --> 00:08:13.053
And somebody will pop in one of them old vhs tapes,
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:16.256
One of them old vhs tapes, and i'm on that tape
00:08:16.323 --> 00:08:18.592

Who just want to argue for argument's sake
00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:07.874
For argument's sake and be the kind of individual

Those people and you imitate them because they
00:10:02.829 --> 00:10:05.732

00:10:06.533 --> 00:10:08.669
Assurance of hope. and then he gets very involved
00:10:08.735 --> 00:10:10.137
And then he gets very involved in the details
00:10:10.203 --> 00:10:10.804
In the details of abraham's life
00:10:10.871 --> 00:10:11.772
Of abraham's life in hebrews 6.

In hebrews 6. if abraham wasn't enough
00:10:13.306 --> 00:10:16.443
If abraham wasn't enough throughout the rest
00:10:16.510 --> 00:10:17.177
Throughout the rest of the book of hebrews,
00:10:17.244 --> 00:10:18.245
Of the book of hebrews, we come to the chapter
00:10:18.311 --> 00:10:19.179
We come to the chapter in hebrews 11
00:10:19.246 --> 00:10:20.013
In hebrews 11 where he's talking
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:21.114
Where he's talking about the heroes of the faith,
00:10:21.181 --> 00:10:24.284

To the heroes of the faith. and he says, “for

And he says, “for what more should i say?
00:10:27.688 --> 00:10:29.756
What more should i say? because time would fail me
00:10:29.823 --> 00:10:32.659
Because time would fail me to tell you
00:10:32.726 --> 00:10:33.694
To tell you how they through faith.”
00:10:33.760 --> 00:10:35.395
How they through faith.” and he says
00:10:35.462 --> 00:10:35.829
And he says they subdued kingdoms,
00:10:35.896 --> 00:10:36.930
They subdued kingdoms, they worked righteousness,
00:10:36.997 --> 00:10:38.065
They worked righteousness, they obtained promises,
00:10:38.131 --> 00:10:39.232
They obtained promises, they stopped lions,
00:10:39.299 --> 00:10:40.300
They stopped lions, they quenched violence.
00:10:40.367 --> 00:10:41.435
They quenched violence. they escaped the sword.
00:10:41.501 --> 00:10:42.602
They escaped the sword. out of weakness
00:10:42.669 --> 00:10:43.437
Out of weakness they were made strong.
00:10:43.503 --> 00:10:44.438
They were made strong. they received their
00:10:44.504 --> 00:10:45.338
They received their dead back to life.
00:10:45.405 --> 00:10:48.642
Dead back to life. (yeah.)
00:10:48.709 --> 00:10:50.477
(yeah.) and then he says, but
00:10:50.544 --> 00:10:52.379
And then he says, but while they got a testimony,
00:10:52.446 --> 00:10:55.148
While they got a testimony, they didn't obtain the promise
00:10:55.215 --> 00:10:57.984
They didn't obtain the promise because god provided
00:10:58.051 --> 00:10:59.486
Because god provided something better.
00:10:59.553 --> 00:11:00.987
Something better. say that with me.
00:11:01.054 --> 00:11:01.888
Say that with me. god provided something better
00:11:01.955 --> 00:11:04.725
God provided something better for us.
00:11:04.791 --> 00:11:07.661

But he didn't get the promise. how much farther do
00:11:26.213 --> 00:11:27.047
How much farther do i have to go
00:11:27.114 --> 00:11:27.981
I have to go before you realize that
00:11:28.048 --> 00:11:29.049
Before you realize that there's a whole lot of people
00:11:29.116 --> 00:11:30.050
There's a whole lot of people that came before you
00:11:30.117 --> 00:11:31.651
That came before you that didn't get
00:11:31.718 --> 00:11:32.419
That didn't get what you've got from god today.
00:11:32.486 --> 00:11:34.554
What you've got from god today. don't sit here and wonder,
00:11:34.621 --> 00:11:36.056
Don't sit here and wonder, does he love me?
00:11:36.123 --> 00:11:37.524
Does he love me? does he care for me?
00:11:37.591 --> 00:11:38.925
Does he care for me? what's he going to do for me?
00:11:38.992 --> 00:11:40.393
What's he going to do for me? he did it all when he
00:11:40.460 --> 00:11:41.995
He did it all when he gave you the promise.
00:11:42.062 --> 00:11:44.564
Gave you the promise. (applause)
00:11:44.631 --> 00:11:48.835
For the peace of jerusalem.
00:11:49.402 --> 00:11:51.138
This is not a suggestion.
00:11:51.138 --> 00:11:52.572
It's a directive from heaven.
00:11:52.572 --> 00:11:54.574
And for those who obey.
00:11:54.574 --> 00:11:56.009

Anti-semitism and violence.

To jhm.org/israelstrong.
00:12:41.188 --> 00:12:45.258
And what was that promise?
00:12:45.325 --> 00:12:47.761
And what was that promise? hebrews 12.
00:12:47.828 --> 00:12:48.962
Hebrews 12. it says, “looking unto jesus.”
00:12:49.029 --> 00:12:51.932
It says, “looking unto jesus.” jesus was the promise.
00:12:51.998 --> 00:12:54.768
Jesus was the promise. jesus was the promise.
00:12:54.835 --> 00:12:57.604
Jesus was the promise. god gave us something better.
00:12:57.671 --> 00:12:59.673
God gave us something better. it was jesus christ.
00:12:59.739 --> 00:13:01.441
It was jesus christ. “looking unto jesus, the author
00:13:01.508 --> 00:13:03.910
“looking unto jesus, the author and the finisher of our faith.”
00:13:03.977 --> 00:13:05.912
And the finisher of our faith.” what did he do?
00:13:05.979 --> 00:13:07.147
What did he do? just like
00:13:07.214 --> 00:13:07.681
Just like abraham endured,
00:13:07.747 --> 00:13:08.982
Abraham endured, jesus endured,
00:13:09.049 --> 00:13:09.916
Jesus endured, just like moses endured.
00:13:09.983 --> 00:13:11.484
Just like moses endured. jesus endured.
00:13:11.551 --> 00:13:12.452
Jesus endured. just like david endured.
00:13:12.519 --> 00:13:13.987
Just like david endured. jesus endured.
00:13:14.054 --> 00:13:15.155
Jesus endured. if you're wondering
00:13:15.222 --> 00:13:16.089
If you're wondering why you have to
00:13:16.156 --> 00:13:17.057
Why you have to endure in your life,
00:13:17.123 --> 00:13:18.258
Endure in your life, because if jesus did it,
00:13:18.325 --> 00:13:19.693
Because if jesus did it, you will too.
00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:22.229
You will too. (applause)
00:13:22.295 --> 00:13:25.832
(applause) well, what did he receive
00:13:25.899 --> 00:13:27.467
Well, what did he receive once he had endured?
00:13:27.534 --> 00:13:30.136
Once he had endured? his inheritance.
00:13:30.203 --> 00:13:33.206
His inheritance. he endured the cross,
00:13:33.273 --> 00:13:34.307
He endured the cross, he despised the shame.
00:13:34.374 --> 00:13:35.675
He despised the shame. and the verse says, “he sat down
00:13:35.742 --> 00:13:38.712
And the verse says, “he sat down at the right hand side
00:13:38.778 --> 00:13:39.779
At the right hand side of the father.”
00:13:39.846 --> 00:13:42.182
Of the father.” he said, i waited and i worked.
00:13:42.249 --> 00:13:45.585
He said, i waited and i worked. and i did
00:13:45.652 --> 00:13:46.052
And i did what you sent me to do
00:13:46.119 --> 00:13:47.420
What you sent me to do and now i'll receive what you
00:13:47.487 --> 00:13:49.022
And now i'll receive what you said i could have.
00:13:49.089 --> 00:13:52.359
Said i could have. and paul tells us
00:13:52.425 --> 00:13:53.994
And paul tells us back in hebrews 6,
00:13:54.060 --> 00:13:56.997
Back in hebrews 6, he says,
00:13:57.063 --> 00:13:57.297
He says, if you don't have this
00:13:57.364 --> 00:13:58.198
If you don't have this full assurance of hope,
00:13:58.265 --> 00:14:00.333
Full assurance of hope, if you don't have faith
00:14:00.400 --> 00:14:01.434
If you don't have faith and patience,
00:14:01.501 --> 00:14:02.836
And patience, you will not inherit
00:14:02.903 --> 00:14:04.137
You will not inherit the promise.
00:14:04.204 --> 00:14:06.106
The promise. you say, well,
00:14:06.172 --> 00:14:06.439
You say, well, i don't read that in my bible.
00:14:06.506 --> 00:14:07.440
I don't read that in my bible. well, if he says faith and
00:14:07.507 --> 00:14:08.308
Well, if he says faith and patience is how you inherit,
00:14:08.375 --> 00:14:09.676
Patience is how you inherit, if you don't have faith
00:14:09.743 --> 00:14:10.777
If you don't have faith and patience,
00:14:10.844 --> 00:14:11.278
And patience, guess what you don't?
00:14:11.344 --> 00:14:13.446
Guess what you don't? inherit.
00:14:13.513 --> 00:14:15.715
Inherit. why?
00:14:15.782 --> 00:14:16.416
Why? because there's a danger
00:14:16.483 --> 00:14:17.717
Because there's a danger when you don't take god
00:14:17.784 --> 00:14:18.818
When you don't take god at his word.
00:14:18.885 --> 00:14:20.220
At his word. verse 13 through 19.
00:14:20.287 --> 00:14:21.888
Verse 13 through 19. i know i read a lot of
00:14:21.955 --> 00:14:22.822
I know i read a lot of scripture today,
00:14:22.889 --> 00:14:24.024
Scripture today, probably more than some of
00:14:24.090 --> 00:14:24.925
Probably more than some of y'all read a month.
00:14:24.991 --> 00:14:26.660
Y'all read a month. (laughter)
00:14:26.726 --> 00:14:27.661
(laughter) paul is underneath
00:14:27.727 --> 00:14:29.296
Paul is underneath the power
00:14:29.362 --> 00:14:29.796
The power of the holy spirit, telling
00:14:29.863 --> 00:14:31.531
Of the holy spirit, telling god's children
00:14:31.598 --> 00:14:32.766
God's children how god makes a promise.
00:14:32.832 --> 00:14:35.669
How god makes a promise. and he begins by saying
00:14:35.735 --> 00:14:36.770
And he begins by saying that whenever god
00:14:36.836 --> 00:14:37.470
That whenever god makes a promise,
00:14:37.537 --> 00:14:38.138
Makes a promise, he promises by himself
00:14:38.204 --> 00:14:39.539
He promises by himself because he cannot
00:14:39.606 --> 00:14:40.206
Because he cannot find anyone greater.
00:14:40.273 --> 00:14:42.842
Find anyone greater. have you ever made a promise?
00:14:42.909 --> 00:14:45.111
Have you ever made a promise? and somebody wanted validation
00:14:45.178 --> 00:14:46.613
And somebody wanted validation that you were going to do
00:14:46.680 --> 00:14:47.280
That you were going to do what you said?
00:14:47.347 --> 00:14:49.416
What you said? remember when we were kids
00:14:49.482 --> 00:14:50.984
Remember when we were kids and somebody say, really?
00:14:51.051 --> 00:14:51.952
And somebody say, really? you go, scout's honor.
00:14:52.018 --> 00:14:54.220
You go, scout's honor. you didn't even have to
00:14:54.287 --> 00:14:54.788
You didn't even have to be in the scouts.
00:14:54.854 --> 00:14:55.455
Be in the scouts. if you could just hold up
00:14:55.522 --> 00:14:56.189
If you could just hold up three fingers,
00:14:56.256 --> 00:14:56.756
Three fingers, it was like scout's honor.
00:14:56.823 --> 00:14:59.025
It was like scout's honor. but it says, when god
00:14:59.092 --> 00:14:59.960
But it says, when god is looking for something
00:15:00.026 --> 00:15:00.961
Is looking for something that he can put
00:15:01.027 --> 00:15:01.628
That he can put the substance of an oath in,
00:15:01.695 --> 00:15:03.663
The substance of an oath in, he makes the oath by him
00:15:03.730 --> 00:15:05.799
He makes the oath by him because he can't find anything
00:15:05.865 --> 00:15:07.233
Because he can't find anything greater than him.
00:15:07.300 --> 00:15:11.538
Greater than him. and so what he's saying
00:15:11.604 --> 00:15:12.572
And so what he's saying is, when you treat me,
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:14.240
Is, when you treat me, god, with the same suspicion
00:15:14.307 --> 00:15:16.042
God, with the same suspicion that you do other men,
00:15:16.109 --> 00:15:18.945
That you do other men, you let go of hope
00:15:19.012 --> 00:15:22.482
You let go of hope and you don't get my promise
00:15:22.549 --> 00:15:23.917
And you don't get my promise and you don't get
00:15:23.984 --> 00:15:24.451
And you don't get your inheritance in your life.
00:15:24.517 --> 00:15:29.189
Your inheritance in your life. it's not that you've
00:15:29.255 --> 00:15:30.056
It's not that you've cut god's power off.
00:15:30.123 --> 00:15:31.624
Cut god's power off. it's that you've
00:15:31.691 --> 00:15:32.158
It's that you've disconnected yourself
00:15:32.225 --> 00:15:33.326
Disconnected yourself from god's power.
00:15:33.393 --> 00:15:34.761
From god's power. (that's right.)
00:15:34.828 --> 00:15:36.663
(that's right.) read in the gospels
00:15:36.730 --> 00:15:37.597
Read in the gospels where it says
00:15:37.664 --> 00:15:38.131
Where it says that when jesus
00:15:38.198 --> 00:15:38.732
That when jesus went to nazareth,
00:15:38.798 --> 00:15:39.833
Went to nazareth, he could do no
00:15:39.899 --> 00:15:40.600
He could do no mighty works there.
00:15:40.667 --> 00:15:42.402
Mighty works there. it didn't say
00:15:42.469 --> 00:15:42.936
It didn't say he couldn't do work.
00:15:43.003 --> 00:15:45.338
He couldn't do work. it said because those people
00:15:45.405 --> 00:15:46.806
It said because those people didn't believe who he was
00:15:46.873 --> 00:15:48.875
Didn't believe who he was and what he was,
00:15:48.942 --> 00:15:49.943
And what he was, he couldn't
00:15:50.010 --> 00:15:50.477
He couldn't do the work
00:15:50.543 --> 00:15:51.011
Do the work because they disconnected
00:15:51.077 --> 00:15:52.345
Because they disconnected themselves from the power
00:15:52.412 --> 00:15:54.748
Themselves from the power so when god
00:15:54.814 --> 00:15:55.382
So when god makes you a promise, he's
00:15:55.448 --> 00:15:56.716
Makes you a promise, he's making the promise
00:15:56.783 --> 00:15:57.784
Making the promise based on himself.
00:15:57.851 --> 00:16:00.453
Based on himself. and when you look at him
00:16:00.520 --> 00:16:01.254
And when you look at him and go really?
00:16:01.321 --> 00:16:03.690
And go really? do you really mean it?
00:16:03.757 --> 00:16:06.693
Do you really mean it? promise?
00:16:06.760 --> 00:16:09.596
Promise? prove to me you mean it.
00:16:09.662 --> 00:16:13.566
Prove to me you mean it. god just says, “no.”
00:16:13.633 --> 00:16:16.803
God just says, “no.” if i'm not good enough,
00:16:16.870 --> 00:16:19.672
If i'm not good enough, and if my word
00:16:19.739 --> 00:16:20.640
And if my word is not good enough,
00:16:20.707 --> 00:16:22.776
Is not good enough, and my immutability,
00:16:22.842 --> 00:16:24.310
And my immutability, which means my unchanging ness,
00:16:24.377 --> 00:16:26.379
Which means my unchanging ness, he says, go check me
00:16:26.446 --> 00:16:27.781
He says, go check me all the way back to genesis
00:16:27.847 --> 00:16:29.282
All the way back to genesis and follow me
00:16:29.349 --> 00:16:30.150
And follow me all the way to revelation
00:16:30.216 --> 00:16:31.317
All the way to revelation and see where i
00:16:31.384 --> 00:16:32.085
And see where i shifted and turned.
00:16:32.152 --> 00:16:33.253
Shifted and turned. i haven't moved.
00:16:33.319 --> 00:16:34.254
I haven't moved. i'm the same yesterday,
00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:35.789
I'm the same yesterday, today, and forever.
00:16:35.855 --> 00:16:37.824
Today, and forever. (applause)
00:16:37.891 --> 00:16:41.361
(applause) if all of that is not enough,
00:16:41.428 --> 00:16:45.198
If all of that is not enough, then you're disconnected.
00:16:45.265 --> 00:16:47.534
Then you're disconnected. you lose what i promised you.
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:50.937
You lose what i promised you. but i still have the power
00:16:51.004 --> 00:16:53.073
But i still have the power and i still have the promise.
00:16:53.139 --> 00:16:56.309
And i still have the promise. and so god shows us
00:16:56.376 --> 00:16:59.979
And so god shows us verse 18
00:17:00.046 --> 00:17:01.414
Verse 18 that by two immutable things,
00:17:01.481 --> 00:17:04.250
That by two immutable things, his word and his will,
00:17:04.317 --> 00:17:07.654
His word and his will, it is impossible for god to lie
00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:10.590
It is impossible for god to lie that we might have strong
00:17:10.657 --> 00:17:13.626
That we might have strong consolation.
00:17:13.693 --> 00:17:14.694
Consolation. what kind of consolation?
00:17:14.761 --> 00:17:16.296
What kind of consolation? strong consolation.
00:17:16.362 --> 00:17:19.666
Strong consolation. strong consolation.
00:17:19.732 --> 00:17:21.734
Strong consolation. why is it strong consolation?
00:17:21.801 --> 00:17:26.172
Why is it strong consolation? you know, whenever you've
00:17:26.239 --> 00:17:26.973
You know, whenever you've had a bad day,
00:17:27.040 --> 00:17:27.540
Had a bad day, it's one thing
00:17:27.607 --> 00:17:28.041
It's one thing for a friend to come by and go,
00:17:28.108 --> 00:17:28.908
For a friend to come by and go, “hey, man,
00:17:28.975 --> 00:17:30.110
“hey, man, it's gonna get better.”
00:17:30.176 --> 00:17:32.378
It's gonna get better.” i appreciate that.
00:17:32.445 --> 00:17:33.213
I appreciate that. that's encouragement,
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:34.681
That's encouragement, but it's all together different
00:17:34.747 --> 00:17:37.417
But it's all together different when i've had a bad day
00:17:37.484 --> 00:17:40.753
When i've had a bad day and dad reaches out
00:17:40.820 --> 00:17:43.289
And dad reaches out and he puts his
00:17:43.356 --> 00:17:44.090
And he puts his hand of consolation on my life
00:17:44.157 --> 00:17:47.060
Hand of consolation on my life and he says,
00:17:47.127 --> 00:17:47.594
And he says, “son, i believe in you.
00:17:47.660 --> 00:17:49.429
“son, i believe in you. it's going to get better.
00:17:49.496 --> 00:17:50.964
It's going to get better. it's going to get better,
00:17:51.030 --> 00:17:52.665
It's going to get better, it's going to get better.”
00:17:52.732 --> 00:17:54.400
It's going to get better.” (applause)
00:17:54.467 --> 00:17:57.704
(applause) father god, through his word
00:17:57.770 --> 00:18:00.240
Father god, through his word and through his will,
00:18:00.306 --> 00:18:01.341
And through his will, he gives us fatherly
00:18:01.407 --> 00:18:03.943
He gives us fatherly consolation.
00:18:04.010 --> 00:18:05.545
Consolation. this is not just somebody.
00:18:05.612 --> 00:18:06.946
This is not just somebody. this is the one and only
00:18:07.013 --> 00:18:10.650
This is the one and only who's wrapping his arms
00:18:10.717 --> 00:18:11.885
Who's wrapping his arms around you and saying,
00:18:11.951 --> 00:18:12.552
Around you and saying, “i've got you.
00:18:12.619 --> 00:18:13.553
“i've got you. i'll keep you.
00:18:13.620 --> 00:18:14.721
I'll keep you. i know you.
00:18:14.787 --> 00:18:15.889
I know you. i promised you.
00:18:15.955 --> 00:18:17.090
I promised you. i get you
00:18:17.157 --> 00:18:18.124
I get you when nobody else does.
00:18:18.191 --> 00:18:19.592
When nobody else does. i get you
00:18:19.659 --> 00:18:20.527
I get you when you don't get me.
00:18:20.593 --> 00:18:22.061
When you don't get me. don't let go of my word.
00:18:22.128 --> 00:18:23.930
Don't let go of my word. don't let go of my promise.
00:18:23.997 --> 00:18:25.632
Don't let go of my promise. keep holding on to hope
00:18:25.698 --> 00:18:27.233
Keep holding on to hope because i promise you this:
00:18:27.300 --> 00:18:29.068
Because i promise you this: you're going to make it.
00:18:29.135 --> 00:18:30.803
You're going to make it. my word will come to pass.
00:18:30.870 --> 00:18:32.839
My word will come to pass. what i said i would do,
00:18:32.906 --> 00:18:34.607
What i said i would do, i will do.
00:18:34.674 --> 00:18:35.875
I will do. hope in me.
00:18:35.942 --> 00:18:37.477
Hope in me. don't let go of me.”
00:18:37.544 --> 00:18:39.712
Don't let go of me.” he wraps his arms around you
00:18:39.779 --> 00:18:42.081
He wraps his arms around you and he gives you the consolation
00:18:42.148 --> 00:18:43.716
And he gives you the consolation that only a father can give.
00:18:43.783 --> 00:18:45.385
That only a father can give. and it gives you
00:18:45.451 --> 00:18:46.085
And it gives you the ability to say,
00:18:46.152 --> 00:18:47.153
The ability to say, “i can do all things
00:18:47.220 --> 00:18:49.455
“i can do all things through christ who
00:18:49.522 --> 00:18:50.557
Through christ who gives me strength.”
00:18:50.623 --> 00:18:52.659
Gives me strength.” (applause)
00:18:52.725 --> 00:18:58.898
(applause) and then if that don't beat all,
00:18:58.965 --> 00:19:01.601
And then if that don't beat all, in verse 19, he says,
00:19:01.668 --> 00:19:03.069
In verse 19, he says, “because this hope
00:19:03.136 --> 00:19:04.971
“because this hope we have as an anchor
00:19:05.038 --> 00:19:07.407
We have as an anchor of the soul.”
00:19:07.473 --> 00:19:10.543
Of the soul.” and then he describes
00:19:10.610 --> 00:19:11.978
And then he describes where our soul is anchored.
00:19:12.045 --> 00:19:16.216
Where our soul is anchored. it's sure and it's steadfast,
00:19:16.282 --> 00:19:19.352
It's sure and it's steadfast, and it enters the presence
00:19:19.419 --> 00:19:21.754
And it enters the presence behind the veil.
00:19:21.821 --> 00:19:24.023
Behind the veil. now, remember, he's talking to
00:19:24.090 --> 00:19:25.458
Now, remember, he's talking to people who understand judaism.
00:19:25.525 --> 00:19:28.962
People who understand judaism. if he'd have wrote this
00:19:29.028 --> 00:19:29.896
If he'd have wrote this to another group of believers,
00:19:29.963 --> 00:19:31.698
To another group of believers, they would have
00:19:31.764 --> 00:19:32.065
They would have needed an explanation.
00:19:32.131 --> 00:19:33.933
Needed an explanation. but because he's
00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:34.534
But because he's writing to children of abraham
00:19:34.601 --> 00:19:36.536
Writing to children of abraham and he's writing to those
00:19:36.603 --> 00:19:37.937
And he's writing to those who grew up
00:19:38.004 --> 00:19:38.438
Who grew up in the law of moses,
00:19:38.504 --> 00:19:39.405
In the law of moses, they understand
00:19:39.472 --> 00:19:40.240
They understand what behind the veil means.
00:19:40.306 --> 00:19:44.077
What behind the veil means. when god wanted to
00:19:44.143 --> 00:19:44.944
When god wanted to live with his children,
00:19:45.011 --> 00:19:46.346
Live with his children, he told moses
00:19:46.412 --> 00:19:47.814
He told moses how to design the tabernacle,
00:19:47.880 --> 00:19:50.583
How to design the tabernacle, and the tabernacle
00:19:50.650 --> 00:19:51.484
And the tabernacle was god's blueprint
00:19:51.551 --> 00:19:52.552
Was god's blueprint for his presence
00:19:52.619 --> 00:19:53.820
For his presence to come be with his children.
00:19:53.886 --> 00:19:57.090
To come be with his children. this is where the bible says,
00:19:57.156 --> 00:19:58.291
This is where the bible says, “in his presence
00:19:58.358 --> 00:19:59.926
“in his presence is the fullness of joy.”
00:19:59.993 --> 00:20:02.262
Is the fullness of joy.” david said,
00:20:02.328 --> 00:20:02.829
David said, “i was glad
00:20:02.895 --> 00:20:03.696
“i was glad when they said unto me,
00:20:03.763 --> 00:20:04.497
When they said unto me, let us go into the house
00:20:04.564 --> 00:20:05.498
Let us go into the house of the lord.” why?
00:20:05.565 --> 00:20:06.566
Of the lord.” why? because in the
00:20:06.633 --> 00:20:07.233
Because in the house of the lord,
00:20:07.300 --> 00:20:08.234
House of the lord, that's the temple.
00:20:08.301 --> 00:20:10.169
That's the temple. that's the tabernacle.
00:20:10.236 --> 00:20:11.638
That's the tabernacle. there's god's presence.
00:20:11.704 --> 00:20:15.842
There's god's presence. so he begins to describe
00:20:15.908 --> 00:20:17.343
So he begins to describe to them the veil.
00:20:17.410 --> 00:20:19.345
To them the veil. and what he's talking about
00:20:19.412 --> 00:20:20.913
And what he's talking about is a pathway
00:20:20.980 --> 00:20:22.282
Is a pathway that leads from the beginning
00:20:22.348 --> 00:20:24.150
That leads from the beginning of the outer court
00:20:24.217 --> 00:20:25.685
Of the outer court into the inner court,
00:20:25.752 --> 00:20:27.287
Into the inner court, into the holy place,
00:20:27.353 --> 00:20:29.022
Into the holy place, and then into the holiest
00:20:29.088 --> 00:20:30.757
And then into the holiest of holies behind the veil.
00:20:30.823 --> 00:20:34.227
Of holies behind the veil. now, only on certain days
00:20:34.294 --> 00:20:36.996
Now, only on certain days could the high priest
00:20:37.063 --> 00:20:38.131
Could the high priest go into the holy of holies.
00:20:38.197 --> 00:20:40.433
Go into the holy of holies. and if he came
00:20:40.500 --> 00:20:41.567
And if he came at the wrong time,
00:20:41.634 --> 00:20:42.769
At the wrong time, or if he came at the wrong way,
00:20:42.835 --> 00:20:45.038
Or if he came at the wrong way, a sinful man
00:20:45.104 --> 00:20:46.272
A sinful man in the presence of a holy god
00:20:46.339 --> 00:20:48.041
In the presence of a holy god would be killed.
00:20:48.107 --> 00:20:50.510
Would be killed. it was just the
00:20:50.576 --> 00:20:51.177
It was just the holiness of
00:20:51.244 --> 00:20:51.878
Holiness of god that would strike him dead.
00:20:51.944 --> 00:20:54.914
God that would strike him dead. they would actually tie a rope
00:20:54.981 --> 00:20:56.182
They would actually tie a rope around the high priest's foot
00:20:56.249 --> 00:20:57.950
Around the high priest's foot with a bell on it.
00:20:58.017 --> 00:20:58.918
With a bell on it. and if the bell quit ringing,
00:20:58.985 --> 00:21:00.086
And if the bell quit ringing, they'd start dragging him out
00:21:00.153 --> 00:21:02.021
They'd start dragging him out and they'd look
00:21:02.088 --> 00:21:02.522
And they'd look at the associate pastor
00:21:02.588 --> 00:21:03.489
At the associate pastor saying, “it's your sunday.”
00:21:03.556 --> 00:21:05.325
Saying, “it's your sunday.” (laughter)
00:21:05.391 --> 00:21:06.793
(laughter) “you preach today.”
00:21:06.859 --> 00:21:08.461
“you preach today.” (laughter)
00:21:08.528 --> 00:21:10.196
(laughter) god took holiness seriously.
00:21:10.263 --> 00:21:14.634
God took holiness seriously. and so what he is saying, paul,
00:21:14.701 --> 00:21:17.737
And so what he is saying, paul, is that the way that you know,
00:21:17.804 --> 00:21:19.372
Is that the way that you know, even if the consolation
00:21:19.439 --> 00:21:20.673
Even if the consolation of your father isn't enough,
00:21:20.740 --> 00:21:22.041
Of your father isn't enough, and the fact
00:21:22.108 --> 00:21:22.642
And the fact that god is not able to lie
00:21:22.709 --> 00:21:24.644
That god is not able to lie isn't enough,
00:21:24.711 --> 00:21:25.478
Isn't enough, the way that you know
00:21:25.545 --> 00:21:27.413
The way that you know that the promise of god is real
00:21:27.480 --> 00:21:29.015
That the promise of god is real and it's going to come to pass
00:21:29.082 --> 00:21:30.383
And it's going to come to pass is that it
00:21:30.450 --> 00:21:30.817
Is that it is the anchor of your soul.
00:21:30.883 --> 00:21:36.055
Is the anchor of your soul. and the way that
00:21:36.122 --> 00:21:36.656
And the way that the anchor of your soul
00:21:36.723 --> 00:21:38.224
The anchor of your soul got behind the veil
00:21:38.291 --> 00:21:41.294
Got behind the veil is that jesus carried the
00:21:41.361 --> 00:21:42.962
Is that jesus carried the burden of your soul
00:21:43.029 --> 00:21:44.797
Burden of your soul to a place called calvary.
00:21:44.864 --> 00:21:47.900
To a place called calvary. and when he got to calvary
00:21:47.967 --> 00:21:50.203
And when he got to calvary and he said, it is finished,
00:21:50.269 --> 00:21:52.772
And he said, it is finished, he tore down that veil
00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:55.074
He tore down that veil that kept you
00:21:55.141 --> 00:21:55.875
That kept you from the presence of god.
00:21:55.942 --> 00:21:57.777
From the presence of god. and he took every promise
00:21:57.844 --> 00:21:59.679
And he took every promise that was in the word of god
00:21:59.746 --> 00:22:01.347
That was in the word of god for your life.
00:22:01.414 --> 00:22:02.548
For your life. and he anchored it right behind
00:22:02.615 --> 00:22:06.052
And he anchored it right behind the anchor of god's promises.
00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:08.855
The anchor of god's promises. and he said,
00:22:08.921 --> 00:22:09.355
And he said, as long as you have
00:22:09.422 --> 00:22:10.556
As long as you have faith in god
00:22:10.623 --> 00:22:12.859
Faith in god and you hold on
00:22:12.925 --> 00:22:13.893
And you hold on with expectation to hope,
00:22:13.960 --> 00:22:15.695
With expectation to hope, you may drift and you may toss
00:22:15.762 --> 00:22:18.631
You may drift and you may toss and you may turn
00:22:18.698 --> 00:22:20.099
And you may turn and you may seem like
00:22:20.166 --> 00:22:21.334
And you may seem like you're getting a long way
00:22:21.401 --> 00:22:22.468
You're getting a long way from where you started.
00:22:22.535 --> 00:22:23.770
From where you started. but if you've got
00:22:23.836 --> 00:22:24.437
But if you've got a hold of hope,
00:22:24.504 --> 00:22:25.638
A hold of hope, sooner or later,
00:22:25.705 --> 00:22:26.506
Sooner or later, that hope is going
00:22:26.572 --> 00:22:27.373
That hope is going to pull you back
00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:28.474
To pull you back to the anchor
00:22:28.541 --> 00:22:29.208
To the anchor that you're solid in,
00:22:29.275 --> 00:22:30.643
That you're solid in, to the word
00:22:30.710 --> 00:22:31.344
To the word that has never failed you,
00:22:31.411 --> 00:22:32.912
That has never failed you, to the thing
00:22:32.979 --> 00:22:33.479
To the thing that god has promised you.
00:22:33.546 --> 00:22:35.014
That god has promised you. you don't have to give up today
00:22:35.081 --> 00:22:36.883
You don't have to give up today because god's got you.
00:22:36.949 --> 00:22:38.484
Because god's got you. just hold on in hope.
00:22:38.551 --> 00:22:40.153
Just hold on in hope. it doesn't matter
00:22:40.219 --> 00:22:40.987
It doesn't matter what you go through.
00:22:41.053 --> 00:22:42.188
What you go through. you've got an anchor
00:22:42.255 --> 00:22:43.289
You've got an anchor that says
00:22:43.356 --> 00:22:43.923
That says you can go through
00:22:43.990 --> 00:22:44.791
You can go through a storm of sickness
00:22:44.857 --> 00:22:46.426
A storm of sickness and you're
00:22:46.492 --> 00:22:46.759
And you're anchored to a healer.
00:22:46.826 --> 00:22:48.161
Anchored to a healer. you can go to a place of need
00:22:48.227 --> 00:22:50.096
You can go to a place of need and you're anchored
00:22:50.163 --> 00:22:50.797
And you're anchored to a provider.
00:22:50.863 --> 00:22:51.864
To a provider. you can go to a place
00:22:51.931 --> 00:22:52.932
You can go to a place of loneliness.
00:22:52.999 --> 00:22:53.900
Of loneliness. and you're anchored to a friend
00:22:53.966 --> 00:22:55.268
And you're anchored to a friend that's closer than a brother.
00:22:55.334 --> 00:22:56.702
That's closer than a brother. and then whenever you start
00:22:56.769 --> 00:22:57.770
And then whenever you start to pull on this rope,
00:22:57.837 --> 00:22:59.038
To pull on this rope, you don't get farther
00:22:59.105 --> 00:23:00.039
You don't get farther away from him.
00:23:00.106 --> 00:23:01.073
Away from him. when you start to
00:23:01.140 --> 00:23:01.741
When you start to pull on this rope,
00:23:01.808 --> 00:23:02.809
Pull on this rope, he brings
00:23:02.875 --> 00:23:03.376
He brings you back into his presence
00:23:03.443 --> 00:23:04.811
You back into his presence where there is the
00:23:04.877 --> 00:23:05.445
Where there is the fullness of joy.
00:23:05.511 --> 00:23:06.813
Fullness of joy. and at the right hand
00:23:06.879 --> 00:23:07.980
And at the right hand there are pleasures ever more.
00:23:08.047 --> 00:23:09.649
There are pleasures ever more. i don't know who i'm talking to
00:23:09.715 --> 00:23:11.350
I don't know who i'm talking to here today,
00:23:11.417 --> 00:23:12.251
Here today, but somebody
00:23:12.318 --> 00:23:13.052
But somebody is holding on to the rope
00:23:13.119 --> 00:23:14.620
Is holding on to the rope and they're hoping that god's
00:23:14.687 --> 00:23:16.556
And they're hoping that god's going to come through.
00:23:16.622 --> 00:23:17.757
Going to come through. don't let go.
00:23:17.824 --> 00:23:19.258
Don't let go. god's got you!
00:23:19.325 --> 00:23:20.927
God's got you! god's got you!
00:23:20.993 --> 00:23:22.428
God's got you! he cannot lie.
00:23:22.495 --> 00:23:25.731
He cannot lie. he will not lie.
00:23:25.798 --> 00:23:27.500
He will not lie. if he said it,
00:23:27.567 --> 00:23:28.668
If he said it, he'll do it.
00:23:28.734 --> 00:23:29.836
He'll do it. give the lord a handclap
00:23:29.902 --> 00:23:31.270
Give the lord a handclap of praise!
00:23:31.337 --> 00:23:33.306
Of praise! (applause)
00:23:33.372 --> 00:23:37.310
(applause) this is why we used to sing,
00:23:37.376 --> 00:23:40.213
This is why we used to sing, “my hope is built
00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:42.648
“my hope is built on nothing less than
00:23:42.715 --> 00:23:44.951
On nothing less than jesus' blood and righteousness.
00:23:45.017 --> 00:23:48.855
Jesus' blood and righteousness. i dare not trust
00:23:48.921 --> 00:23:49.989
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
00:23:50.056 --> 00:23:52.225
The sweetest frame, but wholly lean on jesus' name.”
00:23:52.291 --> 00:23:55.828
But wholly lean on jesus' name.” i have an anchor
00:23:55.895 --> 00:23:57.930
I have an anchor and it's on christ
00:23:57.997 --> 00:23:58.965
And it's on christ the solid rock i stand.
00:23:59.031 --> 00:24:02.134
The solid rock i stand. it doesn't matter how strong
00:24:02.201 --> 00:24:03.836
It doesn't matter how strong the winds of life blow.
00:24:03.903 --> 00:24:05.404
The winds of life blow. i have an anchor.
00:24:05.471 --> 00:24:07.240
I have an anchor. it doesn't matter
00:24:07.306 --> 00:24:07.940
It doesn't matter how hard the waves
00:24:08.007 --> 00:24:09.308
How hard the waves hit the side of my boat.
00:24:09.375 --> 00:24:10.977
Hit the side of my boat. i have an anchor.
00:24:11.043 --> 00:24:12.778
I have an anchor. it doesn't matter
00:24:12.845 --> 00:24:13.913
It doesn't matter what they predict
00:24:13.980 --> 00:24:14.847
What they predict for the weather.
00:24:14.914 --> 00:24:16.048
For the weather. “oh, don't go sailing today.
00:24:16.115 --> 00:24:17.517
“oh, don't go sailing today. it's not going to be smooth
00:24:17.583 --> 00:24:18.518
It's not going to be smooth seas out there in the economy.”
00:24:18.584 --> 00:24:19.919
Seas out there in the economy.” it don't matter.
00:24:19.986 --> 00:24:20.553
It don't matter. i've got an anchor.
00:24:20.620 --> 00:24:23.422
I've got an anchor. (applause)
00:24:23.489 --> 00:24:26.058
(applause) and my anchor cannot lie.

And my anchor knows everything. and my anchor
00:24:33.900 --> 00:24:35.167
And my anchor can do everything.

Can do everything. therefore, who am i to say,
00:24:38.070 --> 00:24:40.339
Therefore, who am i to say, “what hope do i have?”
00:24:40.406 --> 00:24:43.576
“what hope do i have?” my hope is in god
00:24:43.643 --> 00:24:46.779
My hope is in god and god alone.
00:24:46.846 --> 00:24:49.415
And god alone. (applause)
00:24:49.482 --> 00:24:53.452

Imagine what would happen if the church discovered
00:25:48.941 --> 00:25:50.610
If the church discovered the identity that christ
00:25:50.676 --> 00:25:51.744
The identity that christ has given us;
00:25:51.811 --> 00:25:53.045
