  • ...
  • 00:00:00.633 --> 00:00:10.887
  • Joseph prince: one of the last acts jesus did
  • 00:00:13.089 --> 00:00:14.657
  • Was to wash the disciples' feet, amen?
  • 00:00:14.791 --> 00:00:17.427
  • It's as if to show them, by visual aid,
  • 00:00:17.527 --> 00:00:19.829
  • What he'll be doing when he goes back to heaven.
  • 00:00:19.963 --> 00:00:20.830
  • Albeit he's crowned with glory and honor,
  • 00:00:22.298 --> 00:00:24.701
  • But he still wants to take the servant's robe.
  • 00:00:24.701 --> 00:00:27.670
  • He came to serve. he came to give to you.
  • 00:00:27.670 --> 00:00:30.306
  • He wants you to take. he came to serve you.
  • 00:00:30.306 --> 00:00:32.642
  • He wants you to receive.
  • 00:00:32.642 --> 00:00:34.110
  • Though risen, though glorified, though highly exalted
  • 00:00:34.110 --> 00:00:40.250
  • To the right hand of the kingdom of kingdoms
  • 00:00:40.250 --> 00:00:44.654
  • And the universe of universe, he remains a servant.
  • 00:00:44.654 --> 00:00:49.125
  • And he uses all his position, he uses all his resources,
  • 00:00:49.125 --> 00:00:53.496
  • He uses all that he is to serve you.
  • 00:00:53.496 --> 00:00:57.267
  • Daily, as believers, even though we are saved,
  • 00:00:57.267 --> 00:00:59.903
  • We contract defilements in our walk, all right,
  • 00:00:59.903 --> 00:01:03.173
  • We hear things we shouldn't hear,
  • 00:01:03.173 --> 00:01:04.874
  • We see things we shouldn't see, and it's dirty.
  • 00:01:04.874 --> 00:01:07.544
  • And dust is the food of the devil.
  • 00:01:07.544 --> 00:01:10.146
  • How do you wash away dust?
  • 00:01:10.146 --> 00:01:11.481
  • With the washing of the water of the word.
  • 00:01:11.481 --> 00:01:12.982
  • Right now as i speak, many of you are already being washed
  • 00:01:12.982 --> 00:01:15.952
  • Because i'm preaching the water of the word.
  • 00:01:15.952 --> 00:01:17.954
  • You feel, like, "oh, the dust has gone, man.
  • 00:01:17.954 --> 00:01:19.756
  • I see clearer, i feel lighter, i feel more peaceful," why?
  • 00:01:19.756 --> 00:01:23.126
  • Because you are being washed.
  • 00:01:23.126 --> 00:01:24.460
  • And that's what jesus says: "those who are born again
  • 00:01:24.460 --> 00:01:26.262
  • Does not need to get reborn when they sin.
  • 00:01:26.262 --> 00:01:28.131
  • They just need to wash their feet."
  • 00:01:28.131 --> 00:01:29.933
  • Male announcer: the bible is god's love letter to you.
  • 00:01:29.999 --> 00:01:32.602
  • Come meet jesus in the word today.
  • 00:01:32.602 --> 00:01:34.871
  • In today's message, joseph unveils
  • 00:01:34.871 --> 00:01:36.773
  • How all of scripture points to the wonderful love
  • 00:01:36.773 --> 00:01:38.808
  • Of our lord and savior, jesus christ.
  • 00:01:38.808 --> 00:01:41.411
  • All around the world, people are opening up their bibles,
  • 00:01:41.411 --> 00:01:44.447

  • We help the world discover one simple truth.

  • And now, here's pastor joseph prince
  • 00:02:36.866 --> 00:02:39.269
  • With today's program.
  • 00:02:39.269 --> 00:02:40.603
  • Joseph prince: you know, as we learn from the lord,
  • 00:02:40.603 --> 00:02:43.139
  • We find that the true understanding,
  • 00:02:43.139 --> 00:02:46.609
  • The true concept of god, who he is,
  • 00:02:46.609 --> 00:02:49.412
  • Really goes against the grain
  • 00:02:49.412 --> 00:02:51.948
  • Of our natural religious thinking, amen?
  • 00:02:51.948 --> 00:02:55.685
  • And one of the things that we need to know
  • 00:02:55.685 --> 00:02:57.020
  • About the lord jesus-- and it's amazing how people
  • 00:02:57.020 --> 00:02:59.389
  • Just misconstrue everything about the lord.
  • 00:02:59.389 --> 00:03:01.858
  • Let's hear from the lips of the master himself.
  • 00:03:01.858 --> 00:03:04.727
  • Why did he come to earth, okay? what's the reason?
  • 00:03:04.727 --> 00:03:08.164
  • Well, he came to get a people for himself.
  • 00:03:08.164 --> 00:03:11.034
  • Well, what exactly did he say?
  • 00:03:11.034 --> 00:03:12.835
  • Well, he came to be worshiped.
  • 00:03:12.835 --> 00:03:15.338
  • He came to be--well, let's see what jesus says.
  • 00:03:15.338 --> 00:03:17.807
  • In mark 10, the words of jesus,
  • 00:03:17.807 --> 00:03:19.976
  • "for even the son of man did not come to be served,
  • 00:03:19.976 --> 00:03:23.212
  • But to serve."
  • 00:03:23.212 --> 00:03:24.547
  • Wow, wow, look at that.
  • 00:03:24.547 --> 00:03:26.182
  • He didn't come to be served, but to serve.
  • 00:03:26.182 --> 00:03:29.552
  • His purpose for coming, amen, is so that he can serve you.
  • 00:03:29.552 --> 00:03:34.490
  • He didn't come to be served.
  • 00:03:34.490 --> 00:03:36.993
  • Though he's worthy of worship,
  • 00:03:36.993 --> 00:03:39.262
  • He didn't come to be worshiped, amen?
  • 00:03:39.262 --> 00:03:42.665
  • He came to serve you.
  • 00:03:42.665 --> 00:03:44.734
  • Even though he deserves to be served,
  • 00:03:44.734 --> 00:03:47.470
  • He didn't come looking for servants.
  • 00:03:47.470 --> 00:03:50.206
  • Hey, trust me, to have you and me as a servant
  • 00:03:50.206 --> 00:03:54.310
  • Is not a good deal for god.
  • 00:03:54.310 --> 00:03:56.245
  • God has angels that never get tired.
  • 00:03:56.245 --> 00:03:59.582
  • All right, their voices never get raspy.
  • 00:03:59.582 --> 00:04:03.786
  • And they sing at perfect pitch and melody.
  • 00:04:03.786 --> 00:04:07.724
  • And some of you wish the person beside you
  • 00:04:07.724 --> 00:04:09.525
  • Just now stopped singing, amen?
  • 00:04:09.525 --> 00:04:11.994
  • Trust me, god does not need us to be his servants.
  • 00:04:11.994 --> 00:04:15.832
  • He didn't come-- "but, pastor prince,
  • 00:04:15.832 --> 00:04:17.166
  • The bible talk about servants--" we'll come to that, okay?
  • 00:04:17.166 --> 00:04:19.769
  • But what's the primary reason?
  • 00:04:19.769 --> 00:04:21.471
  • Why did jesus come?
  • 00:04:21.471 --> 00:04:22.805
  • And this will just completely upended your--
  • 00:04:22.805 --> 00:04:26.342
  • Change your thinking about the lord.
  • 00:04:26.342 --> 00:04:28.111
  • That's repentance, by the way-- changing your mind.
  • 00:04:28.111 --> 00:04:30.179
  • You're thinking about god as the one
  • 00:04:30.179 --> 00:04:32.048
  • "he's claiming from me this, he's claiming from me that,
  • 00:04:32.048 --> 00:04:34.617
  • He demands from me this, he demands from me that."
  • 00:04:34.617 --> 00:04:37.286
  • No, my friend, jesus says, on the contrary,
  • 00:04:37.286 --> 00:04:40.256
  • "i did not come to be served, but to serve."
  • 00:04:40.256 --> 00:04:45.027
  • This is completely against the religious--
  • 00:04:45.027 --> 00:04:48.097
  • Natural religious ideas that we have of god.
  • 00:04:48.097 --> 00:04:50.466
  • Are you listening?
  • 00:04:50.466 --> 00:04:51.868
  • So, "the son of man," jesus says,
  • 00:04:51.868 --> 00:04:53.636
  • "did not come to be served, but to serve
  • 00:04:53.636 --> 00:04:56.339
  • And to give his life a ransom for many.
  • 00:04:56.339 --> 00:04:58.708
  • Now they came to jericho."
  • 00:04:58.708 --> 00:05:00.343
  • Right after that, the holy spirit says,
  • 00:05:00.343 --> 00:05:02.879
  • Right after he said this: "now they came to jericho."
  • 00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:06.315
  • Now watch this.
  • 00:05:06.315 --> 00:05:07.650
  • You're about to see the-- what he said just now--
  • 00:05:07.650 --> 00:05:09.619
  • "he came not to be served, but to serve"--in demonstration.
  • 00:05:09.619 --> 00:05:13.022
  • "and as he went out of jericho"--
  • 00:05:13.022 --> 00:05:15.091
  • Jericho is known as the city of the cursed--
  • 00:05:15.091 --> 00:05:16.726
  • "with his disciples and a great multitude,
  • 00:05:16.726 --> 00:05:19.362
  • Blind bartimaeus, the son of timaeus."
  • 00:05:19.362 --> 00:05:22.698
  • Can i have a good amen, people?
  • 00:05:22.698 --> 00:05:24.033
  • Praise the name of jesus, hallelujah.
  • 00:05:24.033 --> 00:05:26.302
  • You know that god hides in the bible,
  • 00:05:26.302 --> 00:05:29.071
  • God hides, in the old testament, many portraits of his son.
  • 00:05:29.071 --> 00:05:32.742
  • And how do we know this?
  • 00:05:32.742 --> 00:05:34.076
  • Because jesus said when he was walking,
  • 00:05:34.076 --> 00:05:35.611
  • The two disciples after he rose from the dead--
  • 00:05:35.611 --> 00:05:38.114
  • The very same day he rose from the dead that morning,
  • 00:05:38.114 --> 00:05:41.818
  • He was walking with two disciples
  • 00:05:41.818 --> 00:05:44.120
  • On their way back to their home in emmaus,
  • 00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:47.023
  • "and beginning at moses," the first five books.
  • 00:05:47.023 --> 00:05:50.793
  • I'm gonna show you now one book of moses,
  • 00:05:50.793 --> 00:05:52.528
  • Which is exodus-- in hebrew "shemot."
  • 00:05:52.528 --> 00:05:55.531
  • I'm gonna show you a law that god put it there,
  • 00:05:55.531 --> 00:06:01.704
  • But actually the law hides his son.
  • 00:06:01.704 --> 00:06:04.740
  • And don't forget what i said just now--
  • 00:06:04.740 --> 00:06:06.476
  • That the bible are picture books,
  • 00:06:06.476 --> 00:06:08.311
  • Appear in the old testament,
  • 00:06:08.311 --> 00:06:09.645
  • They are picture books of his son.
  • 00:06:09.645 --> 00:06:11.113
  • And right in exodus 20, god gave the ten commandments,
  • 00:06:11.113 --> 00:06:14.584
  • All right?
  • 00:06:14.584 --> 00:06:15.918
  • Just remember, exodus 20, god gave the ten commandments.
  • 00:06:15.918 --> 00:06:18.588
  • But what is found in exodus 21 are the mishpatim.
  • 00:06:18.588 --> 00:06:22.758
  • Mishpatim is the judgments, okay?
  • 00:06:22.758 --> 00:06:25.561
  • Now, look at exodus 21: "now these are the judgments
  • 00:06:25.561 --> 00:06:28.598
  • Which you shall set before them."
  • 00:06:28.598 --> 00:06:31.033
  • Chapter 21 is right after chapter 20,
  • 00:06:31.033 --> 00:06:33.536
  • Right after god gave the ten commandments, right,
  • 00:06:33.536 --> 00:06:37.707
  • God gave this law about a hebrew servant.
  • 00:06:37.707 --> 00:06:42.845
  • Now, what is this about?
  • 00:06:42.845 --> 00:06:44.180
  • Let's read, "now these are the judgments
  • 00:06:44.180 --> 00:06:45.681
  • Which you shall set before them.
  • 00:06:45.681 --> 00:06:47.450
  • If you buy a hebrew servant, he shall serve six years;
  • 00:06:47.450 --> 00:06:51.554
  • And in the seventh he shall go out free
  • 00:06:51.554 --> 00:06:54.290
  • And pay nothing."
  • 00:06:54.290 --> 00:06:55.625
  • In israel, every seventh year is their jubilee,
  • 00:06:55.625 --> 00:06:58.561
  • All right, every seventh year is their jubilee.
  • 00:06:58.561 --> 00:07:00.463
  • And then finally, there's a culmination
  • 00:07:00.463 --> 00:07:01.898
  • Of seven times seven--49.
  • 00:07:01.898 --> 00:07:04.400
  • In the 50th year is a jubilee of all jubilees, amen?
  • 00:07:04.400 --> 00:07:09.138
  • It's a jubilee where every debt is canceled,
  • 00:07:09.138 --> 00:07:13.209
  • Everyone is restored to their family,
  • 00:07:13.209 --> 00:07:14.544
  • They get back the land that they were forfeited
  • 00:07:14.544 --> 00:07:16.312
  • Because of their poverty or whatever, all right,
  • 00:07:16.312 --> 00:07:18.881
  • Because of debt or whatever, they get it back.
  • 00:07:18.881 --> 00:07:20.883
  • Praise god, restoration, amen, all right?
  • 00:07:20.883 --> 00:07:24.020
  • "if you buy a hebrew servant, he shall serve six years;
  • 00:07:24.020 --> 00:07:26.756
  • In the seventh he shall go up free and pay nothing,"
  • 00:07:26.756 --> 00:07:31.294
  • All right?
  • 00:07:31.294 --> 00:07:32.628
  • Now, "if he comes in by himself,
  • 00:07:32.628 --> 00:07:34.096
  • He shall go out in the seventh year by himself;
  • 00:07:34.096 --> 00:07:36.065
  • But if he comes in married,
  • 00:07:36.065 --> 00:07:38.234
  • Then his wife shall go out with him."
  • 00:07:38.234 --> 00:07:40.436
  • So, he brought in his wife, he will go out
  • 00:07:40.436 --> 00:07:42.305
  • In the seventh year with his wife, all right?
  • 00:07:42.305 --> 00:07:44.540
  • They cannot keep the hebrew servant
  • 00:07:44.540 --> 00:07:45.875
  • More than six years, okay?
  • 00:07:45.875 --> 00:07:48.244
  • "if his master has given him--"
  • 00:07:48.244 --> 00:07:49.579
  • Now, "if the master has given him a wife,
  • 00:07:49.579 --> 00:07:51.747
  • And she has borne him sons or daughters,
  • 00:07:51.747 --> 00:07:54.050
  • The wife and her children shall be her master's,
  • 00:07:54.050 --> 00:07:58.054
  • And he shall go out by himself."
  • 00:07:58.054 --> 00:08:01.857
  • So, in other words, if the master gave him
  • 00:08:01.857 --> 00:08:03.359
  • The wife, all right, and the children,
  • 00:08:03.359 --> 00:08:06.696
  • Now he has to go out by himself in the seventh year.
  • 00:08:06.696 --> 00:08:08.798
  • Either that, or he can choose to stay.
  • 00:08:08.798 --> 00:08:11.734
  • Drop down.
  • 00:08:11.734 --> 00:08:13.069
  • "but if the servant plainly says,
  • 00:08:13.069 --> 00:08:14.403
  • 'i love my master--'"
  • 00:08:14.403 --> 00:08:15.738
  • Obviously, his master is a good master, all right?
  • 00:08:15.738 --> 00:08:19.275
  • "'i love my wife, and i love my children;
  • 00:08:19.275 --> 00:08:21.877
  • I will not go out free,' then his master
  • 00:08:21.877 --> 00:08:24.680
  • Shall bring him to the judges.
  • 00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:27.683
  • The judges shall bring him to the door,"
  • 00:08:27.683 --> 00:08:30.553
  • They shall bring him to the door,
  • 00:08:30.553 --> 00:08:32.154
  • "or to the doorpost, and his master--"
  • 00:08:32.154 --> 00:08:34.957
  • They say the doorpost is a place where,
  • 00:08:34.957 --> 00:08:37.059
  • Like the gate of a city, you come so close to freedom.
  • 00:08:37.059 --> 00:08:40.196
  • You come so close, clo--so close.
  • 00:08:40.196 --> 00:08:42.131
  • Outside the door, outside is liberty.
  • 00:08:42.131 --> 00:08:46.035
  • Inside is servitude.
  • 00:08:46.035 --> 00:08:48.304
  • Inside is service; outside, liberty.
  • 00:08:48.304 --> 00:08:54.610
  • So, he has a choice to make.
  • 00:08:54.610 --> 00:08:57.480
  • But this man says, "i love my master,
  • 00:08:57.480 --> 00:08:59.281
  • I love my wife, and i love my children.
  • 00:08:59.281 --> 00:09:01.951
  • Then the master will bring him to the judges,
  • 00:09:01.951 --> 00:09:03.919
  • And the judges shall bring him to the doorpost,
  • 00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:05.254
  • And his master shall pierce his ear with an awl;
  • 00:09:05.254 --> 00:09:07.657
  • And he shall serve him forever."
  • 00:09:07.657 --> 00:09:09.425
  • I can just see the man coming back.
  • 00:09:09.425 --> 00:09:11.494
  • The wife and children are waiting at home,
  • 00:09:11.494 --> 00:09:13.295
  • And they're wondering, "is the servant here?
  • 00:09:13.295 --> 00:09:15.765
  • Will daddy go out there,
  • 00:09:15.765 --> 00:09:18.034
  • You know, find another younger lady to marry?
  • 00:09:18.034 --> 00:09:21.504
  • He's free, you know. will he come back for us?
  • 00:09:21.504 --> 00:09:25.408
  • He has a choice."
  • 00:09:25.408 --> 00:09:27.109
  • And here down the road, they see this lonely figure
  • 00:09:27.109 --> 00:09:29.779
  • Coming, coming, and here and there he stops,
  • 00:09:29.779 --> 00:09:32.081
  • He touched his ear.
  • 00:09:32.081 --> 00:09:33.416
  • And they could see from far away,
  • 00:09:33.416 --> 00:09:34.750
  • As far as their eyes can make out,
  • 00:09:34.750 --> 00:09:36.285
  • Like, little droplets of blood following this man,
  • 00:09:36.285 --> 00:09:39.989
  • And they run towards him.
  • 00:09:39.989 --> 00:09:41.924
  • With tears, they hug him and they kissed him,
  • 00:09:41.924 --> 00:09:45.861
  • And he kisses them and he hugs them.
  • 00:09:45.861 --> 00:09:47.863
  • And the wife look at the-- forevermore,
  • 00:09:47.863 --> 00:09:50.266
  • When the children and the wife
  • 00:09:50.266 --> 00:09:51.867
  • Looks at those ears that's pierced,
  • 00:09:51.867 --> 00:09:55.404
  • They always remember, "he had a choice, but he chose to stay
  • 00:09:55.404 --> 00:09:59.475
  • With us," amen?
  • 00:09:59.475 --> 00:10:01.677
  • And jesus was pierced on the cross.
  • 00:10:01.677 --> 00:10:04.313
  • And that's the reason why, in psalms 40--
  • 00:10:04.313 --> 00:10:06.682
  • It tells us in psalms 40, "sacrifice and offering
  • 00:10:06.682 --> 00:10:09.985
  • You did not desire; my ears you have opened."
  • 00:10:09.985 --> 00:10:13.856
  • Interesting. it's a psalm of the messiah.
  • 00:10:13.856 --> 00:10:16.892
  • The messiah saying, "my ears--you have opened."
  • 00:10:16.892 --> 00:10:20.262
  • "my ears--you have opened."
  • 00:10:20.262 --> 00:10:22.064
  • In the marginal rendering, the hebrew here is
  • 00:10:22.064 --> 00:10:25.301
  • "my ears, you have digged," you have pierced, literally,
  • 00:10:25.301 --> 00:10:29.205
  • All right?
  • 00:10:29.205 --> 00:10:30.539
  • "burnt offering and sin offering you do not desire.
  • 00:10:30.539 --> 00:10:31.874
  • Then i said, 'behold, i come; in the scroll of the book,
  • 00:10:31.874 --> 00:10:33.576
  • It is written of me.
  • 00:10:33.576 --> 00:10:34.910
  • I delight to do your will, o my god.
  • 00:10:34.910 --> 00:10:36.846
  • Your law is within my heart."
  • 00:10:36.846 --> 00:10:38.180
  • That's the only place where the law is contained,
  • 00:10:38.180 --> 00:10:40.483
  • In his heart,
  • 00:10:40.483 --> 00:10:41.817
  • Because none of us can do it, okay?
  • 00:10:41.817 --> 00:10:44.520
  • Now, look at the new testament counterpart,
  • 00:10:44.520 --> 00:10:47.123
  • Like hebrews 10, "previously saying,"
  • 00:10:47.123 --> 00:10:49.692
  • Quoting psalms 40, which we just read,
  • 00:10:49.692 --> 00:10:51.861
  • 'sacrifice and offering, burn offerings,
  • 00:10:51.861 --> 00:10:53.562
  • And offerings for sin you did not desire,
  • 00:10:53.562 --> 00:10:55.931
  • Nor had pleasure in them.'
  • 00:10:55.931 --> 00:10:57.666
  • Then he said, 'behold,' jesus said,
  • 00:10:57.666 --> 00:11:00.136
  • 'i've come to do your will, o god.'
  • 00:11:00.136 --> 00:11:02.204
  • He takes away the first," the law,
  • 00:11:02.204 --> 00:11:04.373
  • The commandment of sinaitic covenant,
  • 00:11:04.373 --> 00:11:07.009
  • "that he may establish the second,"
  • 00:11:07.009 --> 00:11:08.577
  • The new covenant of grace, amen?
  • 00:11:08.577 --> 00:11:10.746
  • "by that will we have been sanctified
  • 00:11:10.746 --> 00:11:13.415
  • To the offering of the body of jesus christ forever."
  • 00:11:13.415 --> 00:11:16.919
  • Okay, if you look at verse-- the verses before this, it says,
  • 00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:23.392
  • Instead of "my ears, you have--"
  • 00:11:23.392 --> 00:11:26.395
  • Okay, here's one place where you need to turn to the bible:
  • 00:11:26.395 --> 00:11:29.064
  • Hebrews 10.
  • 00:11:29.064 --> 00:11:31.033
  • All right, hebrews 10, i'm gonna show you something.
  • 00:11:31.033 --> 00:11:34.637
  • Okay, if you're not sure you can find hebrew 10,
  • 00:11:34.637 --> 00:11:36.438
  • You don't want your neighbor to know, then don't turn.
  • 00:11:36.438 --> 00:11:38.607
  • I found it already. save you.
  • 00:11:38.607 --> 00:11:42.011
  • It says in verse 5, "sacrifice and offering
  • 00:11:42.011 --> 00:11:44.180
  • You did not desire, but a body you have prepared for me,
  • 00:11:44.180 --> 00:11:46.649
  • A body you have prepared for me."
  • 00:11:46.649 --> 00:11:48.117
  • So, here, just now we read from psalms 40, all right?
  • 00:11:48.117 --> 00:11:52.154
  • It is "my ears, you have digged,"
  • 00:11:52.154 --> 00:11:54.156
  • But in the new testament, he's quoting
  • 00:11:54.156 --> 00:11:56.926
  • From the septuagint, the greek version,
  • 00:11:56.926 --> 00:11:59.361
  • "a body you have prepared me."
  • 00:11:59.361 --> 00:12:01.463
  • And this body, verse 10, "by that will
  • 00:12:01.463 --> 00:12:03.899
  • We've been sanctified through the offering
  • 00:12:03.899 --> 00:12:05.234
  • Of the body of jesus christ once for all."
  • 00:12:05.234 --> 00:12:07.903
  • So, the earlier verses says, "a body you have prepared me."
  • 00:12:07.903 --> 00:12:10.940
  • When it's quoting psalms 40, instead of saying,
  • 00:12:10.940 --> 00:12:13.442
  • "my ears you have digged,"
  • 00:12:13.442 --> 00:12:14.777
  • "a body you have prepared for me."
  • 00:12:14.777 --> 00:12:17.179
  • It applies to jesus as the servant.
  • 00:12:17.179 --> 00:12:19.615
  • The ear represents the totality, amen?
  • 00:12:19.615 --> 00:12:22.885
  • He became a servant.
  • 00:12:22.885 --> 00:12:25.154
  • Friend, why do you think god put his picture
  • 00:12:25.154 --> 00:12:29.225
  • In the bible?
  • 00:12:29.225 --> 00:12:30.759
  • Who is this all about, where, at the emmaus road,
  • 00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:33.195
  • Jesus says, "he expounded in moses,"
  • 00:12:33.195 --> 00:12:35.431
  • In the book of exodus, even this chapter,
  • 00:12:35.431 --> 00:12:37.333
  • "things concerning himself."
  • 00:12:37.333 --> 00:12:40.169
  • You see, friends, god never became a man
  • 00:12:40.169 --> 00:12:43.405
  • Until jesus came as a man, amen?
  • 00:12:43.405 --> 00:12:47.476
  • He came as a man.
  • 00:12:47.476 --> 00:12:49.411
  • When he saw us in our pitiful condition,
  • 00:12:49.411 --> 00:12:51.614
  • We are so proud, we blaspheme god,
  • 00:12:51.614 --> 00:12:53.616
  • "why did god, why did god--"
  • 00:12:53.616 --> 00:12:54.950
  • We sit in the seat of judgment and judge god.
  • 00:12:54.950 --> 00:12:57.453
  • Based on our puny, peanut brain, we judge the almighty god.
  • 00:12:57.453 --> 00:13:01.090
  • And the very blasphemies that we pronounce against him,
  • 00:13:01.090 --> 00:13:03.726
  • That breath is given to us by almighty god himself.
  • 00:13:03.726 --> 00:13:07.363
  • And god could just easily put, like,
  • 00:13:07.363 --> 00:13:09.398
  • What you do every day, all of you, you just flush
  • 00:13:09.398 --> 00:13:12.935
  • What you don't want.
  • 00:13:12.935 --> 00:13:14.270
  • And god could have just done that--
  • 00:13:14.270 --> 00:13:15.604
  • Flush us all, and you can just go down there,
  • 00:13:15.604 --> 00:13:17.473
  • "why did god, why did god, why did god--" you know?
  • 00:13:17.473 --> 00:13:19.942
  • And god could have lived--
  • 00:13:19.942 --> 00:13:21.277
  • God could have just done it that way, amen,
  • 00:13:21.277 --> 00:13:23.812
  • Of anyone who sits in judgment of god.
  • 00:13:23.812 --> 00:13:26.949
  • But god doesn't-- for some reason,
  • 00:13:26.949 --> 00:13:28.550
  • I don't know why he's not like me.
  • 00:13:28.550 --> 00:13:29.952
  • You know, his kindness goes beyond all measure.
  • 00:13:29.952 --> 00:13:33.322
  • When the lord looks down and he saw there was no eye to pity
  • 00:13:33.322 --> 00:13:37.459
  • And no arm to save us,
  • 00:13:37.459 --> 00:13:39.261
  • And we didn't even know we were lost.
  • 00:13:39.261 --> 00:13:40.596
  • That's a sad-- the tragic story of our loss.
  • 00:13:40.596 --> 00:13:44.300
  • We don't even know we are lost, amen?
  • 00:13:44.300 --> 00:13:46.602
  • And he came down without our permission.
  • 00:13:46.602 --> 00:13:48.304
  • He came down while we were still sinners, amen?
  • 00:13:48.304 --> 00:13:51.440
  • And he found us, but we didn't recognize him.
  • 00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:53.909
  • "he came unto his own, his own received him not.
  • 00:13:53.909 --> 00:13:57.346
  • But as many as received him, to them gave he power
  • 00:13:57.346 --> 00:14:00.049
  • To become sons of god."
  • 00:14:00.049 --> 00:14:02.151
  • They didn't realize that the lord of glory,
  • 00:14:02.151 --> 00:14:04.353
  • The god of heaven and earth has come down.
  • 00:14:04.353 --> 00:14:07.623
  • The eternal god confined himself in a baby
  • 00:14:07.623 --> 00:14:10.592
  • In time and place.
  • 00:14:10.592 --> 00:14:13.996
  • The god who upholds all things by the word of his power
  • 00:14:13.996 --> 00:14:17.166
  • Is now upheld by the young virgin's arms.
  • 00:14:17.166 --> 00:14:21.437
  • Oh, such humility that god almighty
  • 00:14:21.437 --> 00:14:24.840
  • Will become a servant.
  • 00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:26.208
  • So, this is not written just for israel.
  • 00:14:26.208 --> 00:14:28.277
  • This is written to tell us a story, a love story,
  • 00:14:28.277 --> 00:14:31.714
  • If only we have ears to hear this love story of god--
  • 00:14:31.714 --> 00:14:35.584
  • How the son became a servant.
  • 00:14:35.584 --> 00:14:38.654
  • And i want you to know something.
  • 00:14:38.654 --> 00:14:40.289
  • It is of the last importance you understand this:
  • 00:14:40.289 --> 00:14:42.658
  • That at no point, at any point, even,
  • 00:14:42.658 --> 00:14:45.127
  • In jesus's life, was he compelled to go
  • 00:14:45.127 --> 00:14:47.930
  • To the cross.
  • 00:14:47.930 --> 00:14:49.298
  • There was no command that he must go and die for us.
  • 00:14:49.298 --> 00:14:51.633
  • There was no--nothing said that he has to die for us.
  • 00:14:51.633 --> 00:14:54.837
  • In fact, anytime he says, "father, the rejection
  • 00:14:54.837 --> 00:14:57.539
  • Is too much.
  • 00:14:57.539 --> 00:14:59.008
  • I'm going home."
  • 00:14:59.008 --> 00:15:00.342
  • The father would say, "come back home."
  • 00:15:00.342 --> 00:15:01.677
  • Do you know what he said one time
  • 00:15:01.677 --> 00:15:03.012
  • When they came to arrest him in the garden of gethsemane?
  • 00:15:03.012 --> 00:15:05.347
  • He said, "peter, put back your sword.
  • 00:15:05.347 --> 00:15:07.583
  • Don't you know, peter, that right now i can pray
  • 00:15:07.583 --> 00:15:10.152
  • To my father, and he will send twelve legions of angels?"
  • 00:15:10.152 --> 00:15:14.990
  • Now, if god wanted him to go to the cross,
  • 00:15:14.990 --> 00:15:16.392
  • God would not send the legions of angels.
  • 00:15:16.392 --> 00:15:17.726
  • No, the choice was his.
  • 00:15:17.726 --> 00:15:19.395
  • If he chose to remain, god says, "all right,
  • 00:15:19.395 --> 00:15:22.931
  • There's nothing."
  • 00:15:22.931 --> 00:15:24.400
  • God will allow him to die for our sins, amen?
  • 00:15:24.400 --> 00:15:26.235
  • Of course, god's desire is that he dies for our sins.
  • 00:15:26.235 --> 00:15:28.737
  • But it doesn't mean that there was--
  • 00:15:28.737 --> 00:15:30.372
  • It was imposed on him he should die.
  • 00:15:30.372 --> 00:15:32.508
  • He had a choice.
  • 00:15:32.508 --> 00:15:33.842
  • Even then, there, he wants deliverance.
  • 00:15:33.842 --> 00:15:35.711
  • In fact, towards the end of jesus's ministry,
  • 00:15:35.711 --> 00:15:38.647
  • Towards the end of jesus's ministry in luke 9,
  • 00:15:38.647 --> 00:15:42.785
  • "now, it came to pass, when the time had come
  • 00:15:42.785 --> 00:15:45.087
  • For him to be received up--"
  • 00:15:45.087 --> 00:15:46.655
  • Now, at this point in time, it was the time
  • 00:15:46.655 --> 00:15:48.624
  • Of the mount of transfiguration, where he was transfigured--
  • 00:15:48.624 --> 00:15:52.694
  • Towards the end of jesus's ministry.
  • 00:15:52.694 --> 00:15:54.563
  • The rejection of the leaders of israel is final, all right?
  • 00:15:54.563 --> 00:15:57.666
  • He knew he would not-- they would not accept him
  • 00:15:57.666 --> 00:15:59.368
  • As a messiah.
  • 00:15:59.368 --> 00:16:00.702
  • And the bible says, "he went up to the mountain
  • 00:16:00.702 --> 00:16:02.871
  • And he was transfigured."
  • 00:16:02.871 --> 00:16:04.339
  • It's as if god is saying, "if men on earth
  • 00:16:04.339 --> 00:16:06.475
  • Will not receive my son, heaven will receive him.
  • 00:16:06.475 --> 00:16:09.311
  • This is who he really is."
  • 00:16:09.311 --> 00:16:10.646
  • And then his face shone with the glory
  • 00:16:10.646 --> 00:16:12.081
  • He had with the father before he came as the baby.
  • 00:16:12.081 --> 00:16:14.850
  • His face shone the glory of the king,
  • 00:16:14.850 --> 00:16:17.252
  • And, and the bible says that peter, james, and john--
  • 00:16:17.252 --> 00:16:19.521
  • They were stunned when they saw him,
  • 00:16:19.521 --> 00:16:21.156
  • And moses was there and elijah was there.
  • 00:16:21.156 --> 00:16:23.358
  • And--but then, that was the moment,
  • 00:16:23.358 --> 00:16:24.993
  • I believe, he could have gone up and went back to heaven.
  • 00:16:24.993 --> 00:16:30.332
  • But it's the language of the hebrew servant.
  • 00:16:30.332 --> 00:16:32.901
  • "no, i will stay.
  • 00:16:32.901 --> 00:16:36.805
  • I love my master," his father.
  • 00:16:36.805 --> 00:16:39.341
  • "i love my church," his wife, "and i love the children,"
  • 00:16:39.341 --> 00:16:43.679
  • The believers as well as the children of israel.
  • 00:16:43.679 --> 00:16:45.981
  • And he came down. he came down the mountain.
  • 00:16:45.981 --> 00:16:48.784
  • Aren't you glad he came down?
  • 00:16:48.784 --> 00:16:50.285
  • And the bible doesn't say, the time came for him
  • 00:16:50.285 --> 00:16:52.154
  • To go to the cross.
  • 00:16:52.154 --> 00:16:53.489
  • It says, "now it came to pass, when the time had come
  • 00:16:53.489 --> 00:16:55.324
  • For him to be received up--" what did he do?
  • 00:16:55.324 --> 00:16:57.759
  • "he steadfastly set his face to go to jerusalem,"
  • 00:16:57.759 --> 00:17:00.963
  • Where he would die, outside jerusalem.
  • 00:17:00.963 --> 00:17:03.665
  • It's his last trip to jerusalem. he chose.
  • 00:17:03.665 --> 00:17:06.068
  • He came so close to the doorpost, amen?
  • 00:17:06.068 --> 00:17:08.470
  • And outside is liberty.
  • 00:17:08.470 --> 00:17:09.805
  • He could go back to the father,
  • 00:17:09.805 --> 00:17:11.206
  • And he won't have his face spat upon.
  • 00:17:11.206 --> 00:17:13.609
  • He could go back to the father,
  • 00:17:13.609 --> 00:17:14.943
  • He won't have his beard pulled on.
  • 00:17:14.943 --> 00:17:16.278
  • He can go back to the father
  • 00:17:16.278 --> 00:17:17.613
  • And won't have his back scourged,
  • 00:17:17.613 --> 00:17:18.947
  • "for with his stripes, we are healed."
  • 00:17:18.947 --> 00:17:20.649
  • He doesn't have to carry our diseases
  • 00:17:20.649 --> 00:17:23.152
  • And a nature that never knew sin,
  • 00:17:23.152 --> 00:17:25.254
  • That hates sin, loves sinners, a nature of love,
  • 00:17:25.254 --> 00:17:28.624
  • A nature of holiness, to become sin.
  • 00:17:28.624 --> 00:17:31.293
  • The very thought of becoming sin,
  • 00:17:31.293 --> 00:17:32.995
  • The very anticipation of that event in the garden
  • 00:17:32.995 --> 00:17:36.165
  • Caused him to sweat blood.
  • 00:17:36.165 --> 00:17:37.499
  • How much more when he was hanging there on the cross.
  • 00:17:37.499 --> 00:17:40.469
  • We can never understand because we are used to dirty filth,
  • 00:17:40.469 --> 00:17:43.739
  • We are used to uncleanness.
  • 00:17:43.739 --> 00:17:45.073
  • For us, it's easy to wallow in the mire.
  • 00:17:45.073 --> 00:17:47.109
  • But for a being who is sinless to become sin on the cross,
  • 00:17:47.109 --> 00:17:51.113
  • That is suffering beyond all sufferings.
  • 00:17:51.113 --> 00:17:53.649
  • But he chose to do it because he loves you,
  • 00:17:53.649 --> 00:17:56.652
  • "i love my master, i love my wife,
  • 00:17:56.652 --> 00:18:00.422
  • And i love my children."
  • 00:18:00.422 --> 00:18:02.191
  • Do you know that jesus is forever a man?
  • 00:18:02.191 --> 00:18:06.595
  • We have one of us who is now
  • 00:18:06.595 --> 00:18:08.330
  • In the highest place in the universe, amen.
  • 00:18:08.330 --> 00:18:12.201
  • He's fully god, granted, yes, but god wants us to know
  • 00:18:12.201 --> 00:18:15.003
  • That he's fully man, a glorified man,
  • 00:18:15.003 --> 00:18:18.273
  • A man crowned with glory and honor
  • 00:18:18.273 --> 00:18:19.841
  • At the father's right hand.
  • 00:18:19.841 --> 00:18:21.977
  • And what does he want you to know?
  • 00:18:21.977 --> 00:18:23.412
  • He wants you to know that he still gives.
  • 00:18:23.412 --> 00:18:25.581
  • He didn't come to be served, he came to served.
  • 00:18:25.581 --> 00:18:28.584
  • The hebrew servant.
  • 00:18:28.584 --> 00:18:29.918
  • And forevermore he's a hebrew servant.
  • 00:18:29.918 --> 00:18:31.954
  • "but pastor prince, how can you say 'forevermore'?
  • 00:18:31.954 --> 00:18:33.989
  • In heaven today, jesus is crowned,
  • 00:18:33.989 --> 00:18:35.691
  • Like you say, with glory and honor,
  • 00:18:35.691 --> 00:18:37.326
  • Angels serving him and all that."
  • 00:18:37.326 --> 00:18:39.261
  • My friend, do you know, in heaven today,
  • 00:18:39.261 --> 00:18:41.496
  • One of the last acts jesus did was to wash
  • 00:18:41.496 --> 00:18:44.199
  • The disciples' feet, amen.
  • 00:18:44.199 --> 00:18:45.968
  • It's as if to show them, by visual aid,
  • 00:18:45.968 --> 00:18:48.537
  • Of what he'll be doing when he goes back to heaven.
  • 00:18:48.537 --> 00:18:50.806
  • Albeit he's crowned with glory and honor,
  • 00:18:50.806 --> 00:18:53.275
  • But he still wants to take the servant's role.
  • 00:18:53.275 --> 00:18:56.211
  • He came to serve. he came to give to you.
  • 00:18:56.211 --> 00:18:58.847
  • He wants you to take, he came to serve you.
  • 00:18:58.847 --> 00:19:01.149
  • He wants you to receive.
  • 00:19:01.149 --> 00:19:05.354
  • And one of the last acts was that he was--
  • 00:19:05.354 --> 00:19:09.424
  • He knew the time had come, and let's read it.
  • 00:19:09.424 --> 00:19:11.193
  • I think it's better for us to read it.
  • 00:19:11.193 --> 00:19:12.628
  • "now before the feast of the passover,
  • 00:19:12.628 --> 00:19:13.962
  • When jesus knew his hour had come that he should depart
  • 00:19:13.962 --> 00:19:15.897
  • From this world to the father, having loved his own."
  • 00:19:15.897 --> 00:19:19.101
  • I love this word--"his own." you are his own.
  • 00:19:19.101 --> 00:19:22.671
  • "having loved his own who were in the world,
  • 00:19:22.671 --> 00:19:26.008
  • He loved them to the end.
  • 00:19:26.008 --> 00:19:28.110
  • And supper being ended,
  • 00:19:28.110 --> 00:19:29.645
  • The devil having already put it in judas iscariot's heart
  • 00:19:29.645 --> 00:19:31.313
  • To betray him."
  • 00:19:31.313 --> 00:19:33.015
  • Next, "jesus, knowing that the father
  • 00:19:33.015 --> 00:19:35.284
  • Had given all things into his hands,
  • 00:19:35.284 --> 00:19:37.419
  • And that he had come from god, he was going to god,
  • 00:19:37.419 --> 00:19:40.989
  • Rose from supper, laid aside his garments,
  • 00:19:40.989 --> 00:19:43.992
  • Took a towel and girded himself."
  • 00:19:43.992 --> 00:19:46.962
  • Only a secure man, knowing that all things are in his hands,
  • 00:19:46.962 --> 00:19:50.699
  • Can stoop.
  • 00:19:50.699 --> 00:19:52.801
  • So, that's the story. but jesus is secure.
  • 00:19:52.801 --> 00:19:55.370
  • But notice how he used his security.
  • 00:19:55.370 --> 00:19:57.239
  • He knows the father has given all things
  • 00:19:57.239 --> 00:19:58.740
  • Into his hand.
  • 00:19:58.740 --> 00:20:00.075
  • The disciples were waiting on one another
  • 00:20:00.075 --> 00:20:01.443
  • To do the servant's task of washing the feet.
  • 00:20:01.443 --> 00:20:06.081
  • And jesus took a towel, a pail of water,
  • 00:20:06.081 --> 00:20:09.584
  • He gird himself.
  • 00:20:09.584 --> 00:20:10.919
  • In those days, all right, the rich and the people
  • 00:20:10.919 --> 00:20:13.322
  • That are of some means, they wear flowing robes, okay?
  • 00:20:13.322 --> 00:20:17.693
  • But those who serve, they tie themselves,
  • 00:20:17.693 --> 00:20:20.128
  • Tie their flowing robes with a girdle,
  • 00:20:20.128 --> 00:20:21.863
  • So they are free to move, they can move around, right?
  • 00:20:21.863 --> 00:20:24.533
  • They can be unhindered in their movement, okay?
  • 00:20:24.533 --> 00:20:28.337
  • They're not restricted.
  • 00:20:28.337 --> 00:20:29.671
  • So, when you want your flowing robes
  • 00:20:29.671 --> 00:20:32.207
  • To be bound, you tie the girdle.
  • 00:20:32.207 --> 00:20:33.942
  • So, the girdle is a servant's garb.
  • 00:20:33.942 --> 00:20:36.645
  • And he stooped down. watch this.
  • 00:20:36.645 --> 00:20:38.246
  • He stooped down, all right, with one hand on our--
  • 00:20:38.246 --> 00:20:41.450
  • Our feet is the dirtiest.
  • 00:20:41.450 --> 00:20:42.784
  • By the way, i'm not against those who have conferences
  • 00:20:42.784 --> 00:20:45.354
  • Where they are washing one another's feet--
  • 00:20:45.354 --> 00:20:46.688
  • That kind of thing.
  • 00:20:46.688 --> 00:20:48.023
  • But i think there's a meaning, a mystical truth
  • 00:20:48.023 --> 00:20:51.660
  • In the act itself.
  • 00:20:51.660 --> 00:20:52.994
  • It's not so much the act he's telling us to do.
  • 00:20:52.994 --> 00:20:54.463
  • Because if it's the act, why did he tell peter,
  • 00:20:54.463 --> 00:20:56.598
  • "what i'm doing now, you don't understand.
  • 00:20:56.598 --> 00:20:59.334
  • But later on, you will understand
  • 00:20:59.334 --> 00:21:01.903
  • When the holy spirit comes," all right?
  • 00:21:01.903 --> 00:21:04.272
  • If it's a physical act, we all understand.
  • 00:21:04.272 --> 00:21:05.874
  • So, it's something divine.
  • 00:21:05.874 --> 00:21:07.209
  • He's telling us what he would do.
  • 00:21:07.209 --> 00:21:09.411
  • He will go down to the lowest, and our feet are filthy dirty.
  • 00:21:09.411 --> 00:21:13.715
  • It represents all sin.
  • 00:21:13.715 --> 00:21:15.684
  • He came down to the lowest with one hand on our feet
  • 00:21:15.684 --> 00:21:18.186
  • And one hand on god's throne--
  • 00:21:18.186 --> 00:21:20.422
  • The highest glory there is and the lowest that you can go.
  • 00:21:20.422 --> 00:21:29.464
  • And in between, his wonderful person
  • 00:21:29.464 --> 00:21:32.401
  • At every single point becomes our mediator, amen?
  • 00:21:32.401 --> 00:21:39.241
  • And this is an act not of salvation.
  • 00:21:39.241 --> 00:21:41.343
  • He says that "he that is bathed--"
  • 00:21:41.343 --> 00:21:43.311
  • And all of us who are born again,
  • 00:21:43.311 --> 00:21:44.646
  • Who are saved, we've all been bathed.
  • 00:21:44.646 --> 00:21:47.382
  • But jesus told peter, "he that is bathed does not need
  • 00:21:47.382 --> 00:21:49.851
  • Except to wash his feet."
  • 00:21:49.851 --> 00:21:51.653
  • In other words, daily, as believers,
  • 00:21:51.653 --> 00:21:53.922
  • Even though we are saved, we contract defilements
  • 00:21:53.922 --> 00:21:56.691
  • In our walk, all right?
  • 00:21:56.691 --> 00:21:58.126
  • We hear things we shouldn't hear,
  • 00:21:58.126 --> 00:21:59.828
  • We see things we shouldn't see, and it's dirty.
  • 00:21:59.828 --> 00:22:02.464
  • And dust is the food of the devil.
  • 00:22:02.464 --> 00:22:05.167
  • How do you wash away dust?
  • 00:22:05.167 --> 00:22:06.501
  • With the washing of the water of the word.
  • 00:22:06.501 --> 00:22:08.003
  • Right now, as i speak, many of you are already being washed
  • 00:22:08.003 --> 00:22:10.839
  • Because i'm preaching the water of the word, amen?
  • 00:22:10.839 --> 00:22:14.176
  • You feel, like, "oh, the dust has gone, man.
  • 00:22:14.176 --> 00:22:16.077
  • I see clearer, i feel lighter, i feel more peaceful," why?
  • 00:22:16.077 --> 00:22:19.681
  • Because you are being washed.
  • 00:22:19.681 --> 00:22:21.016
  • And that's what jesus says: "those who are born again
  • 00:22:21.016 --> 00:22:22.517
  • Does not need to get reborn when they sin.
  • 00:22:22.517 --> 00:22:25.587
  • They just need to wash their feet," amen?
  • 00:22:25.587 --> 00:22:29.624
  • Praise the lord. so, what a beautiful picture.
  • 00:22:29.624 --> 00:22:32.494
  • Now, here comes the gift.
