The Winning Walk with Dr. Ed Young | Ed Young - Reach Out and Touch | March 22, 2026
  • Some people have a hard time loving.
  • 00:00:01.024 --> 00:00:03.660
  • Why is that?
  • 00:00:03.660 --> 00:00:05.462
  • You've never really been loved.
  • 00:00:05.462 --> 00:00:08.031
  • Some people have a hard time forgiving
  • 00:00:08.031 --> 00:00:11.434
  • Because you never really understood
  • 00:00:11.434 --> 00:00:13.636
  • And perhaps never felt you've been forgiven.
  • 00:00:13.636 --> 00:00:16.773
  • Some people have a hard time trusting people.
  • 00:00:16.773 --> 00:00:19.809
  • It's because maybe you have never been trusted.
  • 00:00:20.777 --> 00:00:24.914
  • You see, you can't give away.
  • 00:00:25.548 --> 00:00:27.750
  • Accept that what you have.
  • 00:00:27.750 --> 00:00:29.219
  • You can't give away anything you do not have.
  • 00:00:29.219 --> 00:00:48.071
  • I've had the privilege to go to the vatican
  • 00:00:48.938 --> 00:00:51.541
  • And visit the sistine chapel on several occasions.
  • 00:00:51.541 --> 00:00:55.211
  • The last time joe bass and i were there, we got what
  • 00:00:55.211 --> 00:00:58.515
  • They called a back door tour.
  • 00:00:58.515 --> 00:01:01.351
  • Our god knew someone there, and we went into
  • 00:01:01.351 --> 00:01:05.588
  • The sistine chapel before it was open to the public.
  • 00:01:05.588 --> 00:01:09.659
  • So only a handful of people there.
  • 00:01:09.659 --> 00:01:11.427
  • We're able really to look at it.
  • 00:01:11.427 --> 00:01:13.730
  • And i think it was a time they had just completed
  • 00:01:13.730 --> 00:01:16.733
  • A restoration of the colors.
  • 00:01:16.733 --> 00:01:19.502
  • And it is indeed magnificent.
  • 00:01:19.502 --> 00:01:21.971
  • Most of you are familiar with it.
  • 00:01:21.971 --> 00:01:24.007
  • You can look and see it there on your screens.
  • 00:01:24.007 --> 00:01:27.343
  • It's a powerful figure, you see.
  • 00:01:27.343 --> 00:01:30.513
  • To my right there on the screen, there's god.
  • 00:01:30.513 --> 00:01:33.416
  • You see him reaching all the way out?
  • 00:01:34.217 --> 00:01:37.287
  • He's leaning way over.
  • 00:01:37.287 --> 00:01:39.189
  • His muscles are taunt.
  • 00:01:39.189 --> 00:01:40.890
  • He's extending his finger toward adam.
  • 00:01:40.890 --> 00:01:44.060
  • Now, this is called the creation of adam.
  • 00:01:44.961 --> 00:01:47.997
  • It's a pure tidal.
  • 00:01:48.431 --> 00:01:50.567
  • It's not one that michelangelo
  • 00:01:50.567 --> 00:01:52.502
  • Gave, is what people have picked up.
  • 00:01:52.502 --> 00:01:54.537
  • It's not the creation of adam. obviously.
  • 00:01:54.537 --> 00:01:56.973
  • There's adam.
  • 00:01:56.973 --> 00:01:58.474
  • He's already created. he's alive.
  • 00:01:58.474 --> 00:02:00.109
  • His eyes are open.
  • 00:02:00.109 --> 00:02:02.245
  • But notice, whereas god is reaching
  • 00:02:02.245 --> 00:02:04.948
  • And straining to touch adam.
  • 00:02:04.948 --> 00:02:07.717
  • Adam is sort of reclines.
  • 00:02:07.717 --> 00:02:10.220
  • He is.
  • 00:02:10.220 --> 00:02:11.387
  • He's, you know, leaning back the other way.
  • 00:02:11.387 --> 00:02:14.357
  • He has his left hand out. is
  • 00:02:14.958 --> 00:02:18.328
  • Elbows on his knee, and he just sort of,
  • 00:02:18.328 --> 00:02:21.197
  • Languishing.
  • 00:02:21.531 --> 00:02:24.500
  • God is reaching the touch.
  • 00:02:24.500 --> 00:02:26.269
  • And adam is saying
  • 00:02:26.269 --> 00:02:28.538
  • Now he is looking at god, but it's sort of a
  • 00:02:28.538 --> 00:02:32.375
  • A placid, more or less seemingly disinterested look.
  • 00:02:32.375 --> 00:02:37.213
  • His left leg is up and he just
  • 00:02:37.213 --> 00:02:41.284
  • All he had to
  • 00:02:41.651 --> 00:02:42.752
  • Do to touch the finger of god was,
  • 00:02:42.752 --> 00:02:46.322
  • Look up.
  • 00:02:46.589 --> 00:02:50.560
  • All he had to do.
  • 00:02:50.994 --> 00:02:52.495
  • God was already there inches apart.
  • 00:02:52.495 --> 00:02:55.999
  • He just had to go up.
  • 00:02:55.999 --> 00:02:59.002
  • But he didn't.
  • 00:02:59.002 --> 00:03:00.870
  • In this painting,
  • 00:03:00.870 --> 00:03:03.673
  • The bible tells us
  • 00:03:03.673 --> 00:03:06.309
  • That god is nearer than any
  • 00:03:06.309 --> 00:03:08.645
  • One of us could imagine or understand.
  • 00:03:08.645 --> 00:03:12.081
  • The theological word
  • 00:03:12.548 --> 00:03:14.417
  • Is omnipresence.
  • 00:03:14.417 --> 00:03:17.253
  • It's the concept that god is everywhere,
  • 00:03:18.087 --> 00:03:21.324
  • At all time and all places and all situations.
  • 00:03:21.324 --> 00:03:25.161
  • God is with us.
  • 00:03:25.161 --> 00:03:26.796
  • God is tabernacle among us.
  • 00:03:26.796 --> 00:03:29.232
  • God is everywhere.
  • 00:03:29.232 --> 00:03:30.533
  • He's near to any of us could imagine our feet.
  • 00:03:30.533 --> 00:03:34.170
  • Little girl told her, daddy
  • 00:03:34.771 --> 00:03:37.507
  • That daddy jesus lives in my heart.
  • 00:03:37.507 --> 00:03:41.844
  • And he said, well, how do you know?
  • 00:03:41.844 --> 00:03:43.479
  • Susie said, every time i put my hand
  • 00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:46.783
  • Over my heart, i feel him walking inside.
  • 00:03:46.783 --> 00:03:54.123
  • Near.
  • 00:03:54.357 --> 00:03:55.958
  • Near where?
  • 00:03:55.958 --> 00:03:56.926
  • Discover about how god is near.
  • 00:03:56.926 --> 00:03:59.862
  • We've been walking to matthew, mark, luke and john.
  • 00:03:59.862 --> 00:04:02.231
  • We've talked about it being the autobiography of god
  • 00:04:02.231 --> 00:04:04.634
  • Walking on this earth.
  • 00:04:04.634 --> 00:04:05.935
  • And the bottom line is a word we say at christmas.
  • 00:04:05.935 --> 00:04:09.005
  • But it's true all the time.
  • 00:04:09.005 --> 00:04:10.573
  • Emmanuel. god with us.
  • 00:04:10.573 --> 00:04:12.875
  • God with us.
  • 00:04:12.875 --> 00:04:14.143
  • They're right here, right now.
  • 00:04:14.143 --> 00:04:16.212
  • This place, every place god is near.
  • 00:04:16.212 --> 00:04:19.482
  • And we've taken jesus all the way from birth
  • 00:04:20.383 --> 00:04:23.953
  • In bethlehem, all the way to jerusalem for purification.
  • 00:04:23.953 --> 00:04:28.424
  • All the way to egypt.
  • 00:04:28.424 --> 00:04:29.826
  • We take him back to to nazareth.
  • 00:04:29.826 --> 00:04:32.095
  • We take you back to jerusalem as a 12 year old.
  • 00:04:32.095 --> 00:04:34.564
  • And the passover, we took him back again to nazareth.
  • 00:04:34.564 --> 00:04:38.501
  • And now we've taken him all the way down.
  • 00:04:38.501 --> 00:04:40.536
  • Look at your map there, where he was baptized
  • 00:04:40.536 --> 00:04:43.339
  • By the jordan and the bottom part of the jordan river.
  • 00:04:43.339 --> 00:04:46.142
  • See it?
  • 00:04:46.142 --> 00:04:47.443
  • Edges baptize.
  • 00:04:47.443 --> 00:04:48.544
  • He won in the wilderness.
  • 00:04:48.544 --> 00:04:50.780
  • He moved in the wilderness there where he was tempted.
  • 00:04:50.780 --> 00:04:53.716
  • The place of desolation.
  • 00:04:53.716 --> 00:04:56.052
  • And then, following that,
  • 00:04:56.052 --> 00:04:58.321
  • We run into a very interesting scripture.
  • 00:04:58.321 --> 00:05:01.023
  • We have john the baptist, who baptized him,
  • 00:05:01.023 --> 00:05:04.093
  • And we have a scripture there.
  • 00:05:04.694 --> 00:05:08.197
  • Here's what happened.
  • 00:05:08.698 --> 00:05:11.033
  • Gospel of john, chapter number one, verse 35.
  • 00:05:11.033 --> 00:05:13.903
  • But again the next day on his baptism,
  • 00:05:13.903 --> 00:05:17.640
  • John was standing with two of his disciples.
  • 00:05:17.640 --> 00:05:20.276
  • Verse 36, john one and he looked at jesus,
  • 00:05:20.276 --> 00:05:24.747
  • And as he walked, he said, behold the lamb of god.
  • 00:05:24.747 --> 00:05:27.850
  • He just said that in verse 29,
  • 00:05:27.850 --> 00:05:30.119
  • That takes away the sin of the world.
  • 00:05:30.119 --> 00:05:32.255
  • And the two disciples
  • 00:05:32.255 --> 00:05:33.556
  • Heard him speak, and they followed jesus.
  • 00:05:33.556 --> 00:05:36.392
  • And jesus turned and saw them following,
  • 00:05:36.392 --> 00:05:38.561
  • And said to them, what do you seek?
  • 00:05:38.561 --> 00:05:41.497
  • They said to him, rabbi, where are you staying?
  • 00:05:41.497 --> 00:05:45.501
  • He said to them, come, and you will see.
  • 00:05:45.501 --> 00:05:47.804
  • So they came and saw where he was staying,
  • 00:05:47.804 --> 00:05:49.806
  • And they stayed with him with jesus that day.
  • 00:05:49.806 --> 00:05:53.776
  • It was around the 10th hour, and one of the two heard him
  • 00:05:53.776 --> 00:05:57.013
  • Speak and follow him was andrew, simon peter's brother.
  • 00:05:57.013 --> 00:06:00.883
  • And he found first his own brother simon, and said to him,
  • 00:06:00.883 --> 00:06:04.787
  • We have found the messiah, which translated means christ.
  • 00:06:04.787 --> 00:06:08.724
  • And he brought him to jesus.
  • 00:06:08.724 --> 00:06:11.093
  • And jesus looked at him and said, you are simon,
  • 00:06:11.093 --> 00:06:13.429
  • The son of john, and you shall be called cephas.
  • 00:06:13.429 --> 00:06:16.833
  • Rocky. peter. aramaic.
  • 00:06:16.833 --> 00:06:19.202
  • The next day
  • 00:06:19.202 --> 00:06:20.369
  • He proposed to go to galilee, and he found philip.
  • 00:06:20.369 --> 00:06:23.739
  • And philip said to him, follow me.
  • 00:06:23.739 --> 00:06:25.842
  • And now philip was from the city,
  • 00:06:25.842 --> 00:06:27.877
  • And the city of andrew and peter,
  • 00:06:27.877 --> 00:06:29.846
  • And philip found nathaniel.
  • 00:06:29.846 --> 00:06:31.614
  • What's happening here,
  • 00:06:31.614 --> 00:06:34.383
  • Principal?
  • 00:06:34.684 --> 00:06:35.485
  • We learned at bethany.
  • 00:06:35.485 --> 00:06:38.788
  • You can't give away
  • 00:06:39.255 --> 00:06:40.756
  • What you do not have.
  • 00:06:40.756 --> 00:06:43.493
  • Tomorrow somebody says, what did i learn in church?
  • 00:06:44.527 --> 00:06:46.996
  • I learned that you can't give away what you do not have.
  • 00:06:46.996 --> 00:06:49.332
  • Boy, that's profound.
  • 00:06:49.332 --> 00:06:50.833
  • I wish i'd heard that,
  • 00:06:50.833 --> 00:06:53.603
  • But that that's what you see here in the calling,
  • 00:06:53.603 --> 00:06:56.439
  • The discernment of jesus and calling these about
  • 00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:59.175
  • What did jesus give to these two?
  • 00:06:59.175 --> 00:07:02.178
  • By the way,
  • 00:07:02.178 --> 00:07:04.380
  • When john the baptist says,
  • 00:07:04.380 --> 00:07:06.883
  • Behold the lamb of god, which takes away
  • 00:07:06.883 --> 00:07:09.452
  • The sin of the world.
  • 00:07:09.452 --> 00:07:10.319
  • He identifies jesus as messiah.
  • 00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.522
  • And immediately
  • 00:07:12.522 --> 00:07:13.523
  • Two of the followers of john the baptist left
  • 00:07:13.523 --> 00:07:16.359
  • John and follow jesus.
  • 00:07:16.359 --> 00:07:17.894
  • Who were these two guys?
  • 00:07:17.894 --> 00:07:20.663
  • Andrew and john.
  • 00:07:20.663 --> 00:07:23.533
  • And they followed jesus.
  • 00:07:23.533 --> 00:07:26.235
  • And jesus turned around and said,
  • 00:07:26.235 --> 00:07:28.571
  • What do you want? why?
  • 00:07:28.571 --> 00:07:29.672
  • Why are you following me? and they said,
  • 00:07:29.672 --> 00:07:31.874
  • We want to visit with you.
  • 00:07:32.441 --> 00:07:33.543
  • We want to go home with you.
  • 00:07:33.543 --> 00:07:35.244
  • And he took them and he spent the rest of the day.
  • 00:07:35.244 --> 00:07:38.147
  • What happened in that conversation?
  • 00:07:38.147 --> 00:07:40.683
  • Did you think between jesus and andrew and john?
  • 00:07:40.683 --> 00:07:44.120
  • I think
  • 00:07:44.353 --> 00:07:46.122
  • He listened.
  • 00:07:46.122 --> 00:07:50.726
  • He asked questions.
  • 00:07:51.193 --> 00:07:54.397
  • And he answered questions.
  • 00:07:54.397 --> 00:07:56.799
  • Does that sound familiar?
  • 00:07:56.799 --> 00:07:58.334
  • Of the 12 year old boy in the temple.
  • 00:07:58.334 --> 00:08:00.236
  • Remember, that's the way we teach.
  • 00:08:00.236 --> 00:08:02.805
  • That's the way we learn. we listen.
  • 00:08:02.805 --> 00:08:05.408
  • We ask questions. we answer questions.
  • 00:08:05.408 --> 00:08:07.243
  • We listen.
  • 00:08:07.243 --> 00:08:07.944
  • We ask, we answer, we answer.
  • 00:08:07.944 --> 00:08:10.613
  • We listen.
  • 00:08:10.613 --> 00:08:11.180
  • We ask.
  • 00:08:11.180 --> 00:08:12.448
  • That's the genius of learning.
  • 00:08:12.448 --> 00:08:15.151
  • And that's exactly what they did.
  • 00:08:15.151 --> 00:08:17.153
  • They that jesus listened to them.
  • 00:08:17.153 --> 00:08:19.522
  • He asked them questions. then he answered questions.
  • 00:08:19.522 --> 00:08:21.958
  • They were last. and what happened?
  • 00:08:21.958 --> 00:08:23.526
  • Jesus gave to them.
  • 00:08:23.526 --> 00:08:25.027
  • Remember the purpose for the life of jesus.
  • 00:08:25.027 --> 00:08:27.296
  • Remember what we said it was.
  • 00:08:27.296 --> 00:08:28.965
  • He came to change hearts.
  • 00:08:28.965 --> 00:08:31.934
  • Change hearts.
  • 00:08:32.268 --> 00:08:33.235
  • Give us a new heart and then a new agenda.
  • 00:08:33.235 --> 00:08:37.073
  • To announce that you now have a new kingdom.
  • 00:08:37.073 --> 00:08:39.208
  • You're in the kingdom of god.
  • 00:08:39.208 --> 00:08:42.144
  • And that's what he gave these two.
  • 00:08:42.144 --> 00:08:44.380
  • And now they had something, didn't they?
  • 00:08:44.380 --> 00:08:46.248
  • They had new hearts. they had a new agenda.
  • 00:08:46.248 --> 00:08:48.417
  • And what they did was they said, let's go find peter.
  • 00:08:48.417 --> 00:08:51.854
  • They found peter
  • 00:08:51.854 --> 00:08:52.822
  • And they gave him their juice, him to jesus.
  • 00:08:52.822 --> 00:08:55.458
  • He had a new heart, a new kingdom.
  • 00:08:55.458 --> 00:08:57.093
  • Peter said, i want to find my friend philip.
  • 00:08:57.093 --> 00:08:59.729
  • And he did the same thing with him.
  • 00:08:59.729 --> 00:09:01.263
  • And philip says, let's go tell nathaniel about it.
  • 00:09:01.263 --> 00:09:04.000
  • All of a sudden you have the gospel being gossip
  • 00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:07.803
  • And you have new hearts, and you kingdom
  • 00:09:08.638 --> 00:09:10.840
  • Endeavors just exploding all around us.
  • 00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:13.809
  • They were giving that which they had
  • 00:09:13.809 --> 00:09:17.079
  • Before they'd
  • 00:09:17.446 --> 00:09:18.547
  • Been baptized, or the baptism of john the baptist.
  • 00:09:18.547 --> 00:09:21.050
  • Repent.
  • 00:09:21.050 --> 00:09:22.318
  • Try harder. go under. come up.
  • 00:09:22.318 --> 00:09:24.887
  • That's your way.
  • 00:09:24.887 --> 00:09:26.188
  • I'm going to just try hard.
  • 00:09:26.188 --> 00:09:28.124
  • Now they had a new heart.
  • 00:09:28.124 --> 00:09:29.692
  • You power, new motivation.
  • 00:09:29.692 --> 00:09:31.827
  • And they had their way in the kingdom.
  • 00:09:31.827 --> 00:09:34.063
  • They were giving to one another.
  • 00:09:34.063 --> 00:09:36.732
  • That which they were excited about.
  • 00:09:36.732 --> 00:09:38.534
  • That new heart, that new life.
  • 00:09:38.534 --> 00:09:41.637
  • Some people have a hard time loving.
  • 00:09:42.405 --> 00:09:45.041
  • Why is that?
  • 00:09:45.041 --> 00:09:46.842
  • You've never really been loved.
  • 00:09:46.842 --> 00:09:49.412
  • Some people have a hard time forgiving
  • 00:09:49.412 --> 00:09:52.815
  • Because you never really understood
  • 00:09:52.815 --> 00:09:55.017
  • And perhaps never felt you've been forgiven.
  • 00:09:55.017 --> 00:09:58.154
  • Some people have a hard time trusting people.
  • 00:09:58.154 --> 00:10:01.190
  • It's because maybe you have never been trusted.
  • 00:10:02.158 --> 00:10:06.295
  • You see, you can't give away.
  • 00:10:06.929 --> 00:10:09.131
  • Accept that what you have.
  • 00:10:09.131 --> 00:10:10.599
  • You can't give away anything you do not have.
  • 00:10:10.599 --> 00:10:13.703
  • And so the first commandment says, thou shalt love the lord
  • 00:10:13.703 --> 00:10:16.238
  • Thy god with all thy heart,
  • 00:10:16.238 --> 00:10:17.640
  • Soul, mind, spirit, with everything you got.
  • 00:10:17.640 --> 00:10:20.643
  • Then you are to love your neighbor.
  • 00:10:20.643 --> 00:10:22.578
  • And then finally you can love yourself.
  • 00:10:22.578 --> 00:10:26.115
  • And a lot of people don't love themselves
  • 00:10:26.115 --> 00:10:28.317
  • Because they haven't love god.
  • 00:10:28.317 --> 00:10:30.252
  • They have the inability to love their neighbor.
  • 00:10:30.252 --> 00:10:32.855
  • And they haven't understood that god so love them.
  • 00:10:32.855 --> 00:10:35.291
  • And god fills us with love.
  • 00:10:35.291 --> 00:10:36.826
  • And then we have the capacity to love.
  • 00:10:36.826 --> 00:10:39.695
  • A lot of people have trouble here.
  • 00:10:39.695 --> 00:10:42.565
  • We say, boy, i want to be patient.
  • 00:10:42.565 --> 00:10:45.301
  • Whatever you need, that's what you give.
  • 00:10:45.301 --> 00:10:49.238
  • Need somebody to listen to you.
  • 00:10:49.872 --> 00:10:51.440
  • Listen to somebody.
  • 00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:53.509
  • And then you.
  • 00:10:53.509 --> 00:10:54.343
  • You will have that ability.
  • 00:10:54.343 --> 00:10:55.544
  • You be able to give it away.
  • 00:10:55.544 --> 00:10:57.680
  • That's the way life works.
  • 00:10:57.680 --> 00:10:59.048
  • That's the way
  • 00:10:59.048 --> 00:11:00.116
  • The principles of god in christ work within you,
  • 00:11:00.116 --> 00:11:02.685
  • Heart within you.
  • 00:11:02.685 --> 00:11:03.652
  • Agenda with being you and the kingdom.
  • 00:11:03.652 --> 00:11:06.722
  • You can't give
  • 00:11:07.056 --> 00:11:08.290
  • Away what you do not have.
  • 00:11:08.290 --> 00:11:11.427
  • And they had christ.
  • 00:11:11.427 --> 00:11:12.695
  • They had jesus and you heart.
  • 00:11:12.695 --> 00:11:14.530
  • And they begin to give it
  • 00:11:14.530 --> 00:11:15.698
  • To everybody they came in contact with.
  • 00:11:15.698 --> 00:11:18.400
  • That's what we learned at bethany.
  • 00:11:18.400 --> 00:11:23.339
  • You can't give away
  • 00:11:23.806 --> 00:11:26.142
  • What you do not have.
  • 00:11:26.142 --> 00:11:27.209
  • And you see these early apostles just giving
  • 00:11:27.209 --> 00:11:30.312
  • Way, giving way.
  • 00:11:30.312 --> 00:11:31.614
  • Jesus showing them how that
  • 00:11:31.614 --> 00:11:34.250
  • When they put their hand to their heart,
  • 00:11:34.250 --> 00:11:37.153
  • They will feel him
  • 00:11:37.586 --> 00:11:38.954
  • Walking around inside their now.
  • 00:11:38.954 --> 00:11:42.691
  • They travel all the way to a wedding.
  • 00:11:42.691 --> 00:11:44.293
  • They go to kenya.
  • 00:11:44.293 --> 00:11:45.861
  • What happens in kenya?
  • 00:11:45.861 --> 00:11:47.930
  • Wonderful.
  • 00:11:47.930 --> 00:11:48.564
  • Wonderful story there.
  • 00:11:48.564 --> 00:11:50.299
  • Now, these are recently followers of who?
  • 00:11:50.299 --> 00:11:52.768
  • Of john the baptist.
  • 00:11:52.768 --> 00:11:53.969
  • Keep that in mind.
  • 00:11:53.969 --> 00:11:55.838
  • And so they walk all the way to kenya.
  • 00:11:55.838 --> 00:11:58.140
  • Verse three, chapter two of john
  • 00:11:58.140 --> 00:12:00.609
  • We read, when the wine ran out,
  • 00:12:01.243 --> 00:12:03.612
  • The mother jesus said to him, they have no wine.
  • 00:12:03.612 --> 00:12:06.816
  • And jesus said to her, woman, what does that
  • 00:12:06.816 --> 00:12:10.152
  • Have to do with us?
  • 00:12:10.152 --> 00:12:11.353
  • My hour has not yet come.
  • 00:12:11.353 --> 00:12:13.522
  • That's not the tone of voice.
  • 00:12:13.522 --> 00:12:15.157
  • Jesus said to his mom,
  • 00:12:15.157 --> 00:12:16.792
  • Let me tell you what this is really saying.
  • 00:12:16.792 --> 00:12:18.894
  • He said, woman, by the way, the same word
  • 00:12:18.894 --> 00:12:21.063
  • He used at the cross when he looked at mary and said
  • 00:12:21.063 --> 00:12:25.000
  • To his disciples, he said that your mom now,
  • 00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:27.703
  • And mom that your son now the same word of reverence
  • 00:12:27.703 --> 00:12:31.207
  • And respect as you like my dear lady,
  • 00:12:31.207 --> 00:12:35.344
  • What does this have to do with us?
  • 00:12:36.078 --> 00:12:37.947
  • My hour has not yet come.
  • 00:12:37.947 --> 00:12:39.481
  • What he's saying.
  • 00:12:39.481 --> 00:12:40.416
  • He's saying here in this phrase.
  • 00:12:40.416 --> 00:12:42.318
  • It's not the time for me to publicly to begin
  • 00:12:42.318 --> 00:12:45.521
  • To perform miracles.
  • 00:12:45.521 --> 00:12:47.857
  • And then the next verse.
  • 00:12:48.390 --> 00:12:49.892
  • I like what mary said.
  • 00:12:49.892 --> 00:12:51.060
  • Mary said, his mother said to the servants,
  • 00:12:51.060 --> 00:12:54.163
  • Whatever he says to you, do it
  • 00:12:54.163 --> 00:12:58.067
  • Now quietly.
  • 00:12:58.400 --> 00:12:59.501
  • Not a public miracle,
  • 00:12:59.501 --> 00:13:01.003
  • But a private miracle
  • 00:13:01.003 --> 00:13:02.137
  • Known to his mom and the servants there.
  • 00:13:02.137 --> 00:13:04.840
  • Now there were six stone water pots set there
  • 00:13:04.840 --> 00:13:07.643
  • For the jewish custom of purification,
  • 00:13:07.643 --> 00:13:10.412
  • Containing 20 or 30 gallons each.
  • 00:13:10.412 --> 00:13:13.883
  • Jesus said to them, fill the water pots with water
  • 00:13:13.883 --> 00:13:16.385
  • So that they fill them up to the brim.
  • 00:13:16.385 --> 00:13:18.354
  • And he said, draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter.
  • 00:13:18.354 --> 00:13:22.691
  • This is the first miracle.
  • 00:13:22.691 --> 00:13:23.792
  • He turned water into wine.
  • 00:13:23.792 --> 00:13:26.228
  • A child takes their first step unsteady.
  • 00:13:26.228 --> 00:13:30.065
  • Unsure.
  • 00:13:30.299 --> 00:13:31.901
  • Reaching for a father's hand.
  • 00:13:31.901 --> 00:13:34.169
  • No one is born knowing how to walk.
  • 00:13:34.169 --> 00:13:36.538
  • It takes training, strength.
  • 00:13:36.538 --> 00:13:38.941
  • Balance. time.
  • 00:13:38.941 --> 00:13:41.377
  • Walking with god is no different.
  • 00:13:41.377 --> 00:13:44.280
  • Like all journeys, walking the winning
  • 00:13:44.280 --> 00:13:46.215
  • Walk requires the proper equipment and preparation.
  • 00:13:46.215 --> 00:13:49.885
  • By outfitting our lives with the word of god,
  • 00:13:49.885 --> 00:13:52.488
  • We will be able to follow where the master leads.
  • 00:13:52.488 --> 00:13:56.191
  • Psalm 119 says, your word is a lamp
  • 00:13:56.191 --> 00:14:00.896
  • Unto my feet and a light under my path.
  • 00:14:00.896 --> 00:14:04.033
  • God doesn't rush the journey.
  • 00:14:04.033 --> 00:14:06.468
  • He lights the next step
  • 00:14:06.468 --> 00:14:08.737

  • Jesus was a party
  • 00:14:35.998 --> 00:14:38.100
  • Animal in the best sense of the word.
  • 00:14:38.100 --> 00:14:40.803
  • Now follow me.
  • 00:14:40.803 --> 00:14:41.770
  • Doesn't mean he was a wine babbler.
  • 00:14:41.770 --> 00:14:44.373
  • Doesn't mean that he participated in all kind of.
  • 00:14:44.373 --> 00:14:46.809
  • But it means where jesus was.
  • 00:14:46.809 --> 00:14:48.711
  • That was fun. there's excitement.
  • 00:14:48.711 --> 00:14:50.646
  • There's electricity.
  • 00:14:50.646 --> 00:14:51.914
  • He was somebody you'd want to be with.
  • 00:14:51.914 --> 00:14:55.184
  • You see it always in the bible.
  • 00:14:55.184 --> 00:14:57.653
  • And we've got him in sort of a,
  • 00:14:57.653 --> 00:15:00.756
  • That, no,
  • 00:15:00.756 --> 00:15:05.227
  • There was a joy in christ,
  • 00:15:05.794 --> 00:15:09.031
  • By the way, that's the most important word
  • 00:15:09.031 --> 00:15:11.700
  • In the bible to describe a christian is the word joy.
  • 00:15:11.700 --> 00:15:15.404
  • If you want joy, real joy,
  • 00:15:15.971 --> 00:15:18.540
  • Let jesus come into your life, give you that new heart,
  • 00:15:18.540 --> 00:15:21.143
  • That new kingdom.
  • 00:15:21.143 --> 00:15:22.077
  • And these apostles were
  • 00:15:22.077 --> 00:15:23.345
  • John was saying, my goodness, we never seen such celebration.
  • 00:15:23.345 --> 00:15:27.216
  • Being a christian is more abundance and is austere.
  • 00:15:27.216 --> 00:15:30.719
  • Doesn't mean we'll all be rich now about that, but
  • 00:15:30.719 --> 00:15:33.555
  • It is abundance of things that last forever.
  • 00:15:33.555 --> 00:15:36.625
  • The joy in christ, the celebratory atmosphere.
  • 00:15:37.593 --> 00:15:41.764
  • That's what we learn at cana.
  • 00:15:41.764 --> 00:15:44.833
  • We learned. what did.
  • 00:15:45.334 --> 00:15:46.502
  • Bethany.

  • You can't give away what you do not have.
  • 00:15:47.903 --> 00:15:50.806
  • We learn the christian life following
  • 00:15:50.806 --> 00:15:53.008
  • Jesus is more abundance and it is austerity.
  • 00:15:53.008 --> 00:15:56.945
  • It is a thrill to be with brothers and sisters in christ.
  • 00:15:56.945 --> 00:16:00.682
  • I love people like we as christians.
  • 00:16:00.682 --> 00:16:02.384

  • Kind of christian fund you could ever imagine.
  • 00:16:08.190 --> 00:16:11.293
  • That's the kingdom. that's right.
  • 00:16:12.061 --> 00:16:13.629
  • You may applaud.
  • 00:16:13.629 --> 00:16:17.866
  • Now and then.
  • 00:16:18.233 --> 00:16:20.369
  • Jesus goes, and they take a little, little trip
  • 00:16:20.369 --> 00:16:24.106
  • Just about three miles away, and they go to nazareth.
  • 00:16:24.106 --> 00:16:27.543
  • And he speaks in his home.
  • 00:16:28.110 --> 00:16:30.212
  • Synagogue.
  • 00:16:30.212 --> 00:16:32.181
  • He had gone there
  • 00:16:32.181 --> 00:16:33.182
  • Every sabbath, every saturday his whole life.
  • 00:16:33.182 --> 00:16:36.085
  • He had been taught there.
  • 00:16:36.085 --> 00:16:37.886
  • That was his background.
  • 00:16:37.886 --> 00:16:38.954
  • And he goes to be the leader in worship there.
  • 00:16:38.954 --> 00:16:42.157
  • The reading of the old testament,
  • 00:16:42.157 --> 00:16:44.593
  • The prophets, and then the rest of it.
  • 00:16:44.593 --> 00:16:47.029
  • And this is what he read.
  • 00:16:47.029 --> 00:16:48.363
  • He read prophecy of isaiah,
  • 00:16:48.363 --> 00:16:51.300
  • And it is a
  • 00:16:51.300 --> 00:16:53.302
  • It is a very, very interesting, interesting prophecy there.
  • 00:16:53.302 --> 00:16:56.872
  • And look over, if you would,
  • 00:16:57.473 --> 00:17:00.075
  • All the way over in luke now
  • 00:17:00.075 --> 00:17:03.512
  • Luke chapter number four,
  • 00:17:04.079 --> 00:17:06.815
  • And jesus took the book of the prophet isaiah handed to him.
  • 00:17:06.815 --> 00:17:10.219
  • He opened the book, found the place written.
  • 00:17:10.219 --> 00:17:11.954
  • He wrote, the spirit of the lord is upon me,
  • 00:17:11.954 --> 00:17:15.290
  • Because he anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor.
  • 00:17:15.290 --> 00:17:18.460
  • Not just those do not have the poor.
  • 00:17:18.460 --> 00:17:20.362
  • He would mean someone who was disenfranchized.
  • 00:17:20.362 --> 00:17:24.099
  • Someone who was out of fellowship with people.
  • 00:17:24.099 --> 00:17:26.235
  • They were poor and he sent me to proclaim
  • 00:17:26.235 --> 00:17:29.004
  • Release to the captives captive.
  • 00:17:29.004 --> 00:17:31.540
  • Be those who were crushed
  • 00:17:31.540 --> 00:17:33.876
  • And recover of sight to the blind.
  • 00:17:33.876 --> 00:17:36.411
  • You have no illustration of that in the old testament
  • 00:17:36.411 --> 00:17:38.814
  • Of someone blind received their sight.
  • 00:17:38.814 --> 00:17:40.682
  • This was the mark of the messiah.
  • 00:17:40.682 --> 00:17:43.051
  • These are messianic passages to set
  • 00:17:43.051 --> 00:17:45.587
  • Free those who are oppressed.
  • 00:17:45.587 --> 00:17:48.590
  • Those who are scattered.
  • 00:17:48.590 --> 00:17:49.858
  • Those who are down.
  • 00:17:49.858 --> 00:17:51.226
  • And then finally to proclaim,
  • 00:17:51.226 --> 00:17:53.529
  • To proclaim the favorable year of the lord.
  • 00:17:53.529 --> 00:17:56.832
  • This would be the year of jubilee.
  • 00:17:56.832 --> 00:17:59.067
  • You see, they had the sabbatical year
  • 00:17:59.868 --> 00:18:01.904
  • Seven years, and they forgave all their debts.
  • 00:18:01.904 --> 00:18:05.507
  • But every 50 years, really seven times
  • 00:18:05.507 --> 00:18:09.111
  • 749 in the 50th year they had the year of jubilee.
  • 00:18:09.111 --> 00:18:13.649
  • And in israel what they would do
  • 00:18:13.649 --> 00:18:15.651
  • Is all debts, that you all would be forgiven.
  • 00:18:15.651 --> 00:18:19.788
  • All the land that had been bought and sold
  • 00:18:20.689 --> 00:18:23.192
  • For the past 50 years went back to the original family.
  • 00:18:23.192 --> 00:18:26.228
  • The original owners,
  • 00:18:26.228 --> 00:18:28.630
  • And all slaves would be set free.
  • 00:18:28.630 --> 00:18:30.933
  • In other words, they would enslave
  • 00:18:30.933 --> 00:18:33.335
  • Members of one another's family when they couldn't pay debt.
  • 00:18:33.335 --> 00:18:36.405
  • Now there was a leveling of all of israel,
  • 00:18:36.405 --> 00:18:39.308
  • And they planted nothing on halves and nothing
  • 00:18:39.308 --> 00:18:41.610
  • For the entire year.
  • 00:18:41.610 --> 00:18:42.611
  • It was a year of jubilee,
  • 00:18:42.611 --> 00:18:44.780
  • A fresh new beginning for everybody.
  • 00:18:44.780 --> 00:18:48.417
  • And that's what jesus is saying is, i came
  • 00:18:48.417 --> 00:18:51.053
  • To proclaim the year of jubilee.
  • 00:18:51.053 --> 00:18:54.923
  • It is the messiah has come.
  • 00:18:54.923 --> 00:18:57.626
  • That's the announcement.
  • 00:18:57.626 --> 00:18:59.261
  • And now here he is in his home church, standing up saying,
  • 00:18:59.261 --> 00:19:02.397
  • Hey, i'm the messiah.
  • 00:19:02.397 --> 00:19:03.899
  • I'm fulfilling all of this. verse 21.
  • 00:19:03.899 --> 00:19:06.501
  • And jesus began to say to them, today, this scripture
  • 00:19:06.501 --> 00:19:09.471
  • Has been fulfilled in your hearing.
  • 00:19:09.471 --> 00:19:12.241
  • And notice how they responded to that.
  • 00:19:12.241 --> 00:19:14.943
  • Verse 22 and all were speaking well of him,
  • 00:19:14.943 --> 00:19:18.680
  • And wondering at the gracious words
  • 00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:20.549
  • Which were falling from his lips,
  • 00:19:20.549 --> 00:19:22.451
  • And they were saying, is this not joseph's son?
  • 00:19:22.451 --> 00:19:25.921
  • He said to them, no doubt you will quote this proverb to me.
  • 00:19:25.921 --> 00:19:29.891
  • Position here to yourself, whatever we heard has been done
  • 00:19:29.891 --> 00:19:33.095
  • In capernaum, do here in your hometown as well.
  • 00:19:33.095 --> 00:19:36.498
  • What is he saying?
  • 00:19:36.498 --> 00:19:37.899
  • They're saying, look, we've heard
  • 00:19:37.899 --> 00:19:39.101
  • You perform some miracles
  • 00:19:39.101 --> 00:19:40.669
  • Over in capernaum, in other parts of galilee.
  • 00:19:40.669 --> 00:19:43.038
  • We want a miracle right here in nazareth.
  • 00:19:43.038 --> 00:19:45.974
  • This is your home town.
  • 00:19:45.974 --> 00:19:47.943
  • Perform. do a sign.
  • 00:19:47.943 --> 00:19:50.479
  • By the
  • 00:19:50.679 --> 00:19:51.680
  • Way, if you were here without the temptations
  • 00:19:51.680 --> 00:19:53.749
  • Jumping off the top of that temple, he'd already said,
  • 00:19:53.749 --> 00:19:56.451
  • That's not the way to build the kingdom. remember that.
  • 00:19:56.451 --> 00:19:58.887
  • This is the same.
  • 00:19:58.887 --> 00:19:59.821
  • Oh, show us a sign.
  • 00:19:59.821 --> 00:20:02.457
  • He refused to do it.
  • 00:20:02.457 --> 00:20:04.059
  • Then he goes on to say that a prophet
  • 00:20:04.059 --> 00:20:05.594
  • Without honor in his own country.
  • 00:20:05.594 --> 00:20:08.430
  • What he's saying there, he's saying,
  • 00:20:08.430 --> 00:20:09.898
  • Look at all the prophets in the old testament.
  • 00:20:09.898 --> 00:20:12.267
  • How many of the prophets did the people israel listen to?
  • 00:20:12.267 --> 00:20:16.171
  • How many did they respond to?
  • 00:20:16.805 --> 00:20:19.508
  • Oh, maybe temporarily, but they didn't get it.
  • 00:20:19.508 --> 00:20:23.045
  • And then.
  • 00:20:23.345 --> 00:20:24.179
  • But jesus says a very profound phrase.
  • 00:20:24.179 --> 00:20:26.014
  • Verse 25.
  • 00:20:26.014 --> 00:20:27.015
  • He says, i say to you in truth, by the way,
  • 00:20:27.015 --> 00:20:30.652
  • I like truth.
  • 00:20:31.019 --> 00:20:33.355
  • Unless it begins to cut me,
  • 00:20:33.355 --> 00:20:35.123
  • Unless you know it begins to do it.
  • 00:20:35.857 --> 00:20:38.060
  • I'm out.
  • 00:20:38.060 --> 00:20:38.994
  • Tell me the truth. oh, now, wait a minute.
  • 00:20:38.994 --> 00:20:41.029
  • I don't know.
  • 00:20:41.029 --> 00:20:42.597
  • We all love truth until it brings on under conviction.
  • 00:20:42.597 --> 00:20:46.201
  • And we to stick to where we are.
  • 00:20:46.935 --> 00:20:49.171
  • And jesus says, i tell you the truth.
  • 00:20:49.171 --> 00:20:52.140
  • There were many widows and israel in the days of elijah.
  • 00:20:53.275 --> 00:20:56.712
  • And he goes on and he says to those prejudiced
  • 00:20:56.712 --> 00:21:00.515
  • By us, narrow provincial
  • 00:21:00.515 --> 00:21:03.919
  • Inhabitants of his hometown,
  • 00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:08.757
  • He says, let me tell you,
  • 00:21:09.324 --> 00:21:11.460
  • There's a proper name, elijah.
  • 00:21:11.460 --> 00:21:14.429
  • And there was a widow from sidon, a gentile,
  • 00:21:14.429 --> 00:21:18.767
  • And he provided food for her and her daughter.
  • 00:21:18.767 --> 00:21:22.137
  • And also there's a prophet name, elijah.
  • 00:21:22.137 --> 00:21:25.040
  • And they among a syrian came another gentile,
  • 00:21:25.040 --> 00:21:28.810
  • And elijah heal the syrian.
  • 00:21:28.810 --> 00:21:31.680
  • And he's saying, why in the world
  • 00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:34.616
  • Didn't these two prophets heal?
  • 00:21:35.250 --> 00:21:37.586
  • Some israelites?
  • 00:21:37.586 --> 00:21:38.920
  • There were a lot of israelites who were hungry.
  • 00:21:39.855 --> 00:21:41.923
  • After three and a half years of no rain,
  • 00:21:41.923 --> 00:21:44.726
  • And there were a lot of israelites
  • 00:21:44.726 --> 00:21:47.062
  • And these israelites, they had leprosy.
  • 00:21:47.062 --> 00:21:49.531
  • One here, one of them.
  • 00:21:49.531 --> 00:21:51.900
  • You see the prejudice that was there in nazareth.
  • 00:21:51.900 --> 00:21:55.237
  • Nazareth.
  • 00:21:55.537 --> 00:21:56.638
  • You remember, if you look at it closely, it was a city
  • 00:21:56.638 --> 00:21:59.574
  • That prided itself on being totally jewish.
  • 00:21:59.574 --> 00:22:03.245
  • They were jews, jews.
  • 00:22:03.745 --> 00:22:05.213
  • Anybody wanted you, they were not welcome.
  • 00:22:05.213 --> 00:22:07.949
  • So they were very narrow in their belief.
  • 00:22:07.949 --> 00:22:10.886
  • Everybody went to synagogue.
  • 00:22:10.886 --> 00:22:12.654
  • Everybody had the same thing.
  • 00:22:12.654 --> 00:22:14.589
  • And they said that this is only for us.
  • 00:22:14.589 --> 00:22:17.559
  • And that's the reason, nathaniel said,
  • 00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:20.495
  • Who was from right up the road three miles away.
  • 00:22:20.495 --> 00:22:23.331
  • Carter can.
  • 00:22:23.331 --> 00:22:24.266
  • This ain't good.
  • 00:22:24.266 --> 00:22:24.966
  • Come out of nazareth.
  • 00:22:24.966 --> 00:22:27.502
  • It was small town competition
  • 00:22:27.502 --> 00:22:30.338
  • And nazareth was so legalistic and pious.
  • 00:22:30.338 --> 00:22:33.775
  • They said, make anything good come out of god.
  • 00:22:33.775 --> 00:22:35.544
  • And that. and nathaniel, by the way,
  • 00:22:35.544 --> 00:22:38.613
  • He knew that the
  • 00:22:39.014 --> 00:22:40.215
  • Prophet said that jesus would be born in bethlehem.
  • 00:22:40.215 --> 00:22:43.251
  • And now they said, he's a nazarene.
  • 00:22:43.251 --> 00:22:45.153
  • That was sudden.
  • 00:22:45.153 --> 00:22:45.787
  • He had to jump over
  • 00:22:45.787 --> 00:22:47.122
  • In order to become and have that new heart in christ.
  • 00:22:47.122 --> 00:22:50.158
  • So we see the principle that is here.
  • 00:22:50.959 --> 00:22:54.196
  • What do we learn in this sermon in nazareth?
  • 00:22:54.196 --> 00:22:58.667
  • What do you think?
  • 00:22:59.100 --> 00:23:00.836
  • Oh, principle, you can't put
  • 00:23:00.836 --> 00:23:02.871
  • New wine in old wines games.
  • 00:23:02.871 --> 00:23:05.574
  • That's what you eat.
  • 00:23:05.574 --> 00:23:07.108
  • And what happened here to jesus
  • 00:23:07.108 --> 00:23:10.245
  • When he told them that how god had healed
  • 00:23:10.245 --> 00:23:12.914
  • These two gentiles, they said, we've had enough of this.
  • 00:23:12.914 --> 00:23:16.218
  • They took him and tried to push him over a cliff.
  • 00:23:16.218 --> 00:23:19.187
  • You put new wine and old wineskins.
  • 00:23:19.955 --> 00:23:22.190
  • What happens?
  • 00:23:22.190 --> 00:23:23.291
  • And you wine ferments and the old wineskins go boom.
  • 00:23:23.291 --> 00:23:26.394
  • That's what happened in the church in nazareth.
  • 00:23:27.362 --> 00:23:30.332
  • That's what happened there.
  • 00:23:30.332 --> 00:23:31.399
  • You see, they wanted things to remain as they are.
  • 00:23:31.399 --> 00:23:34.870
  • They wanted nothing new.
  • 00:23:34.870 --> 00:23:36.605
  • And we find that in the body of christ today.
  • 00:23:36.605 --> 00:23:38.840
  • Well, i want to put this new life in christ in the old way.
  • 00:23:38.840 --> 00:23:42.277
  • I used to live the old way.
  • 00:23:42.277 --> 00:23:43.845
  • I used to think
  • 00:23:43.845 --> 00:23:45.013
  • I'm going to have the same brand to do the same thing.
  • 00:23:45.013 --> 00:23:47.582
  • I've just sort of tacked on.
  • 00:23:47.582 --> 00:23:48.950
  • Jesus. not so.
  • 00:23:48.950 --> 00:23:50.852
  • Jesus is like that new wine.
  • 00:23:50.852 --> 00:23:53.788
  • You can't put it in our old lifestyles if we do it exposed,
  • 00:23:53.788 --> 00:23:58.860
  • It will not work.
  • 00:23:58.860 --> 00:24:01.930
  • Very, very important.
  • 00:24:02.430 --> 00:24:04.633
  • Go back up to the sistine chapel
  • 00:24:04.633 --> 00:24:06.701
  • A minute.
  • 00:24:06.701 --> 00:24:09.838
  • I wonder how many of us
  • 00:24:09.838 --> 00:24:12.641
  • Like adam,
  • 00:24:12.941 --> 00:24:15.243
  • Lord.
