00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:13.470
And now to John, Chapter Five, verses Seventeen through twenty six. This
2
00:00:13.630 --> 00:00:20.469
passage follows a miracle in which Jesuss
hails heals a lane man who now walks.
3
00:00:20.550 --> 00:00:25.460
He heals him on the Sabbath,
and this results in a great controversy.
4
00:00:26.420 --> 00:00:31.019
How can Jesus be working on the
Sabbath? And this is Jesus's reply.
5
00:00:31.539 --> 00:00:37.689
In verse seventeen, Jesus answered them. My father is working until now,
6
00:00:38.490 --> 00:00:43.649
and I am working. This was
why the Jews were seeking all the
7
00:00:43.729 --> 00:00:47.329
more to kill him, because not
only was he breaking the sabbath, but
8
00:00:47.409 --> 00:00:53.079
he was even calling God his own
father, making himself equal with God.
9
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:57.039
So Jesus said to them. Truly, truly, I say to you,
10
00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:00.079
the son can do nothing of his
own accord, but only what he sees
11
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:07.030
the father doing. For whatever the
father does, that the son does likewise.
12
00:01:07.629 --> 00:01:11.189
For the father loves the son and
shows him all that he himself is
13
00:01:11.310 --> 00:01:15.349
doing, and greater works than these
will he show him, so that you
14
00:01:15.469 --> 00:01:19.819
may marvel. For as the father
raises the dead and gives them life,
15
00:01:19.859 --> 00:01:23.140
so also the son gives that gives
life to whom he will. For the
16
00:01:23.260 --> 00:01:27.780
father judges no one but he,
but has given all judgment to the son,
17
00:01:29.620 --> 00:01:34.489
that all may honor the son just
as they honor the father. Whoever
18
00:01:34.609 --> 00:01:38.409
does not honor the son does not
honor the father who sent him. Truly
19
00:01:38.569 --> 00:01:42.890
truly, I say to you,
whoever hears my word and believes him who
20
00:01:42.969 --> 00:01:49.079
sent me has eternal life. He
does not come into judgment, but is
21
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:56.040
passed from death to life. Truly
truly I say to you, and our
22
00:01:56.280 --> 00:02:00.319
is coming and is now here,
when the dead will hear the voice of
23
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:05.189
the son of God and those who
hear will live. For as the father
24
00:02:05.430 --> 00:02:09.189
has life in himself, so he
has granted the son also to have life
25
00:02:09.789 --> 00:02:23.419
in himself. Amen. So you
can probably guess that the Jews, who
26
00:02:23.419 --> 00:02:28.900
wanted to kill Jesus because he was
making himself equal with God for saying I
27
00:02:29.539 --> 00:02:32.849
am working as the father is working, we're not too pleased with this follow
28
00:02:32.849 --> 00:02:40.530
up speech. Jesus doesn't hold back, he doesn't hedge, he doesn't say
29
00:02:42.289 --> 00:02:45.000
well, now I'm not saying what
you think I'm saying, or I'm not
30
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:50.039
saying well, I'm saying exactly what
you think. There we go. He's
31
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:53.400
saying not so much with the breaking
the sabbath part, because Jesus wasn't breaking
32
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:59.229
the Sabbath, that's another sermon,
but he was making himself equal with God.
33
00:03:00.870 --> 00:03:06.389
He is in fact saying that he
has life in himself, even as
34
00:03:06.469 --> 00:03:09.909
the father has life in himself.
He is saying that he can grant eternal
35
00:03:10.110 --> 00:03:15.060
life, even as the father can
grant eternal life. He is saying that
36
00:03:15.379 --> 00:03:23.780
everything that the father has has been
given to him. Jesus is saying that
37
00:03:23.900 --> 00:03:27.889
he is the son of God and
that those who hear the son of God
38
00:03:28.530 --> 00:03:36.449
and hear his voice with faith will
live. These are the promises that Jesus
39
00:03:36.729 --> 00:03:38.210
makes, these are the things that
he says, and these are the things
40
00:03:38.969 --> 00:03:45.680
that are true. Well, as
we know and have begun to see,
41
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:50.479
hopefully, even from the reading of
God's word, these things are not entirely
42
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:55.990
brand new, but, as we
have thought before, they are anticipated in
43
00:03:57.069 --> 00:04:00.750
the Old Testament. Psalm to,
for example, let's turn there and begin
44
00:04:00.870 --> 00:04:09.189
there. Psalm to is psalm that
begins the PSALTER. Many scholars believe that
45
00:04:09.270 --> 00:04:14.379
psalms one and two hold together as
an introduction to the book. I believe
46
00:04:14.500 --> 00:04:18.579
this is true. They set the
stay age for the whole book. They
47
00:04:18.660 --> 00:04:24.019
begin to help us to understand all
kinds of things about who god is,
48
00:04:24.730 --> 00:04:29.490
who we are, what it means
to belong to him, what piety,
49
00:04:29.889 --> 00:04:33.410
a true piety, looks like in
our lives and lives that are lived in
50
00:04:33.569 --> 00:04:38.009
God. We have the full range
of emotions in the PSALTER. We have
51
00:04:38.290 --> 00:04:42.800
a full expression of human experience in
the PSALTER, and right here at the
52
00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:47.519
beginning. And to help us understand
it all, God puts before us the
53
00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:53.189
king. He wants us to help
us, he wants to help us to
54
00:04:53.310 --> 00:04:59.389
understand who his king is, the
King that he sets on Zion, his
55
00:04:59.629 --> 00:05:04.629
Holy Hill, and this king we
read in Verse Seven, is spoken of
56
00:05:04.790 --> 00:05:10.300
this way. The king himself speaks. I will tell of the decree.
57
00:05:11.300 --> 00:05:15.860
The Lord said to me, you
are my son. Today, I Have
58
00:05:16.100 --> 00:05:20.730
Begotten You. Ask of me,
and I will make the nation's your heritage,
59
00:05:20.730 --> 00:05:25.370
the ends of the Earth your possession. You shall break them with a
60
00:05:25.449 --> 00:05:30.649
rod of iron and dash them in
pieces like a Potter's vessel. This kingship
61
00:05:30.810 --> 00:05:36.600
that is granted to the sun is
spoken of in terms of being begotten,
62
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:45.040
entering into this position of authority and
strength, of receiving and inheritance and a
63
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:51.069
kingship, a ruling from the father
and strength and and and the strength and
64
00:05:51.550 --> 00:05:57.790
power that comes with it. On
this begotten though. This Word Begotten,
65
00:05:58.310 --> 00:06:01.870
as we come to see, does
not only refer to the kingship that is
66
00:06:01.910 --> 00:06:08.300
a Krekoi are acquired by the sun, but it in fact also refers to
67
00:06:09.420 --> 00:06:15.220
the incarnation of the son of God, a marvelous thing which is hinted at
68
00:06:15.300 --> 00:06:20.329
and shown in various ways throughout the
Old Testament and then in fact is fulfilled.
69
00:06:20.370 --> 00:06:25.889
Will consider more about that this evening, and for now I want you
70
00:06:25.930 --> 00:06:30.449
to notice some of the particular things
here in Psalm too. Now, some
71
00:06:30.610 --> 00:06:33.639
people think David is the one who
is the son of God. Here,
72
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:40.160
a David is, after all,
God's anointed King. He is a Messiah,
73
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:44.800
even the Messiah in a way,
Not Saul, but anointed by Samuel
74
00:06:44.920 --> 00:06:50.110
for success and authority and ruling on
the throne of God, and God establishes
75
00:06:50.189 --> 00:06:57.189
him there. He is God's anointed
King. He would achieve great success in
76
00:06:57.310 --> 00:07:02.500
the kingdom as well. God Establishes
Him and his kingdom here in the Promised
77
00:07:02.540 --> 00:07:08.180
Land and Canaan. And it's also
true that those who take refuge in David
78
00:07:08.220 --> 00:07:12.339
finds, say fifty, under God's
authority, and those who plot against him
79
00:07:12.860 --> 00:07:18.329
find trouble. But we see in
the song things that seem to go beyond
80
00:07:18.410 --> 00:07:24.370
David's Kingship, especially as we know
it in its fullness, as it came
81
00:07:24.569 --> 00:07:31.319
to be in history, particularly the
extent of the kingship, the supremacy of
82
00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:36.600
the kingship. Listen to these words. In Verse Eight, ask of me
83
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:42.680
and I will give the nations your
heritage, ends of the Earth, your
84
00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:46.029
possession and the power with that.
In Verse Nine, you shall break them
85
00:07:46.110 --> 00:07:49.990
with a row of iron, you
shall dash them in pieces like a Potter's
86
00:07:49.990 --> 00:07:54.509
vessel. And then in verses twelve, ten through twelve, there's a calling
87
00:07:54.629 --> 00:08:01.699
on all the nations of the world
to subject themselves to the king. Now,
88
00:08:01.779 --> 00:08:05.220
in some ways we saw this fulfilled
with David and then following with his
89
00:08:05.420 --> 00:08:11.540
son Solomon, we see kings and
Queens coming into Israel, but not in
90
00:08:11.660 --> 00:08:16.370
the way that is described here,
not exactly in the way now we might
91
00:08:16.449 --> 00:08:20.009
say, some people do say that. Well, we don't have to put
92
00:08:20.009 --> 00:08:24.329
it that way. This is poetic
overstatement. Right, it's not that it's
93
00:08:24.370 --> 00:08:28.360
not true, it's just this is
the inauguration of the great king, he
94
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:35.240
is taking his throne. And then
it's because that that that install moment is
95
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:41.070
happening with very high language, and
it's perhaps true in that way. But
96
00:08:41.190 --> 00:08:50.029
we also know that David himself anticipated
something greater. David himself anticipated a greater
97
00:08:50.070 --> 00:08:54.590
kingdom, because God promises to David
that he would establish a son on his
98
00:08:54.820 --> 00:09:01.220
throne whose kingdom would be eternal,
whose kingdom would in fact encompass the whole
99
00:09:01.259 --> 00:09:07.100
world. David anticipates this in Psalm
one ten. You can flip with me
100
00:09:07.379 --> 00:09:13.929
there now if you like. I'm
or just listen this fine too. Psalm
101
00:09:15.129 --> 00:09:20.330
ten, a psalm of David.
We read the Lord says to my Lord,
102
00:09:20.809 --> 00:09:26.840
set at my right hand until I
make your enemies your footstool. You
103
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:30.720
see already, at the beginning of
this Psalm, a psalm of David,
104
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:39.070
David is expressing the authority of someone
above him, his Lord. Verse Two,
105
00:09:39.149 --> 00:09:41.870
The Lord Sends Forth From Zion Your
Mighty scepter rule in the midst of
106
00:09:41.950 --> 00:09:46.750
your enemies. Your people will offer
themselves freely on the day of your power
107
00:09:48.549 --> 00:09:52.500
in holy garments from the womb of
the morning and the do of your the
108
00:09:52.539 --> 00:09:56.419
due of your youth, will be
yours. The Lord has sworn and will
109
00:09:56.460 --> 00:10:03.539
not change his mind you are a
priest forever her after the order of Melchizedek.
110
00:10:03.740 --> 00:10:07.570
The Lord is at your right hand. He will shatter kings on the
111
00:10:07.610 --> 00:10:11.370
day of his wrath. He will
execute judgment on the nation's filling them with
112
00:10:11.570 --> 00:10:16.090
corpses. He will shatter chiefs over
the wide earth. He will drink from
113
00:10:16.090 --> 00:10:20.929
the Brook, by the way,
therefore, he will lift up his head.
114
00:10:20.970 --> 00:10:28.440
David is anticipating a kingship in terms
of psalm too, in terms of
115
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:33.639
this one. Who will come,
whom David himself will confess as his Lord.
116
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:37.389
So so. What we have in
Psalm too, then, as a
117
00:10:37.629 --> 00:10:46.070
partial and prophetic fulfillment in David of
the coming Messiah, a true fulfillment,
118
00:10:46.149 --> 00:10:52.860
a real fulfillment, but a partial
one. The dividic dynasty will fall in
119
00:10:52.100 --> 00:10:58.019
time due to disobedience, but that
longing for a king from David would not
120
00:10:58.179 --> 00:11:03.059
go away, and God fulfills that
promise and the promise that he would be
121
00:11:03.330 --> 00:11:09.690
a son of God. In Jesus. This promise that this king would be
122
00:11:09.690 --> 00:11:15.769
born of God was not nearly in
sense of divine appointment, but was in
123
00:11:15.929 --> 00:11:20.559
fact it prow of his birth as
well. Isaiah nine six, this famous
124
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:28.919
passage prophesies this. For to us
a child is born, a son is
125
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:35.149
given, and the government shall be
upon his shoulder and his name shall be
126
00:11:35.389 --> 00:11:46.820
called wonderful counselor mighty God, everlasting
father and Prince of peace. So I'm
127
00:11:46.860 --> 00:11:52.139
here to tell you today that Jesus
of Nazareth was and is that child.
128
00:11:54.820 --> 00:11:58.860
He's the one who was born in
the Line of David, the one who
129
00:12:00.059 --> 00:12:03.610
is promised, that great the son
who would come, that one that David
130
00:12:03.730 --> 00:12:07.649
was anticipating, not only in his
words, not only in his praise,
131
00:12:07.690 --> 00:12:13.570
but his whole life was by God's
institution and in anticipation of this one to
132
00:12:13.730 --> 00:12:20.039
come. How do we know?
How do we know that Jesus of Nazareth,
133
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:28.120
if that one is the son of
God, the everlasting father, the
134
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:33.830
mighty counselor the Prince of peace,
Wonderful Counselor Prince of peace? We know
135
00:12:33.909 --> 00:12:39.710
in all kinds of ways. For
one his birth. Listen to Luke one
136
00:12:39.909 --> 00:12:43.870
three or one hundred and thirty five, and the angel answered her, this
137
00:12:43.029 --> 00:12:48.539
is Mary, the Holy Spirit will
come upon you and the power of the
138
00:12:48.659 --> 00:12:54.580
most high will overshadow you. Therefore, the child to be born will be
139
00:12:54.740 --> 00:13:01.570
called Holy, the son of God, we know from the prophet John,
140
00:13:01.690 --> 00:13:05.929
John Seventeen, for God did not
send his son into the world to condemn
141
00:13:07.090 --> 00:13:09.970
the world, but in order that
the world might be saved through him.
142
00:13:09.970 --> 00:13:18.919
John another whole amazing story there.
But John, this prophet established by God
143
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:26.759
to Yell Out, here comes the
one, the promised one, the light
144
00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:31.269
that shines in the darkness, the
light that does it's not overcome by the
145
00:13:31.350 --> 00:13:35.590
darkness, the light that comes into
the world, the one that saves sinners.
146
00:13:35.710 --> 00:13:39.750
Behold, he says, the Lamb
of God who takes away the sins
147
00:13:39.789 --> 00:13:46.860
of the world. And of course
we know it from Jesus's own words in
148
00:13:46.940 --> 00:13:52.379
John Three. Here's John Thirty four
through thirty six, for he whom God
149
00:13:52.620 --> 00:13:58.330
has sent utters the words of God, for he gives the spirit without measure.
150
00:13:58.009 --> 00:14:01.370
The father loves the son and has
given all things into his hand.
151
00:14:03.490 --> 00:14:09.809
Whoever believes in the sun has eternal
life. Whoever does not obey the son
152
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:13.679
shall not see life, but the
wrath of God remains on him. And
153
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:16.679
then, of course, we have
John Five, which we read already,
154
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:20.960
in which Jesus expresses, and from
many different angles and in many different ways,
155
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:28.070
that he is the son and what
that means, because God's, the
156
00:14:28.230 --> 00:14:35.190
sonship of Jesus is different in some
ways from the sonship of an earthly man
157
00:14:35.669 --> 00:14:39.299
to his son, from me,
let's say, to my son. While
158
00:14:39.539 --> 00:14:46.299
my son holds in him a human
nature like mine, and there are other
159
00:14:46.500 --> 00:14:52.809
similarities between us, we are not
the same being, we are not the
160
00:14:52.889 --> 00:15:00.490
same essence. Jesus, however,
is different, different in such a way
161
00:15:00.529 --> 00:15:07.240
that the son of God can be
also be called the everlasting father. His
162
00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:16.879
sonship is not exactly like our sonships. He is different and different in such
163
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:22.350
a way that he is divine.
To say that he is the son of
164
00:15:22.470 --> 00:15:28.429
God, therefore, is to say
that he is God, the one true
165
00:15:28.789 --> 00:15:33.149
living God, the one who is
unlike the idols of this world and the
166
00:15:33.190 --> 00:15:37.700
kings that plot and all the rest
that is shattered and destroyed and eaten and
167
00:15:37.899 --> 00:15:46.220
disappearing, passing away. He is
our everlasting king, are everlasting father,
168
00:15:48.139 --> 00:15:56.450
because he is the everlasting God.
The importance of this, as we see
169
00:15:56.610 --> 00:16:03.639
these things testified to in scripture,
cannot be overstated. Our ability to confess
170
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:08.600
and confess truly and to hold this
truth in as our lives and as a
171
00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:15.559
as a, as a foundation for
our lives is itself a mark of our
172
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:23.029
salvation. John First, John for
fifteen, says this. Whoever confesses that
173
00:16:23.230 --> 00:16:30.190
Jesus is the son of God,
God abides in him and he in God.
174
00:16:30.389 --> 00:16:37.059
The opposite is also true. The
one who does not confess that Jesus
175
00:16:37.100 --> 00:16:41.259
is the son of God, in
other words the one that denies Psalm to,
176
00:16:41.700 --> 00:16:47.250
in Psalm One and ten and John
Three and John Five and all the
177
00:16:47.289 --> 00:16:52.690
other passages we've been I've been quoting, the one who denies those and says
178
00:16:52.809 --> 00:16:56.250
no, Jesus is not the son
of God. Well, God does not
179
00:16:56.570 --> 00:17:03.399
bide in that person. That person
is not in God. In fact,
180
00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:06.680
that person is, Jesus puts it, is under the wrath of God,
181
00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:15.160
and he will break you as easy
as a pot is broken with a rod
182
00:17:15.029 --> 00:17:22.829
of iron. To come under the
glory of the Son of God is to
183
00:17:22.950 --> 00:17:29.150
come under the blessing of refuge and
safety. Blessed are all, Psalm to
184
00:17:29.390 --> 00:17:33.180
says, blessed are all who seek
refuge in him. He is like a
185
00:17:33.420 --> 00:17:38.099
mother bird that covers her her her
babies, with her wings. It's warm
186
00:17:38.339 --> 00:17:45.009
and toasty and safe. Your protected
enemies can't see you. You're all covered
187
00:17:45.049 --> 00:17:52.650
up and it's okay, but to
walk away and to say this is not
188
00:17:52.890 --> 00:17:56.450
for me, you don't have,
as we saying, that healing that's in
189
00:17:56.609 --> 00:18:03.359
his wings. You don't have the
reconciliation of sinners to a God who is
190
00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:14.269
angry with sin, to take counsel
with other human beings and even demons,
191
00:18:14.390 --> 00:18:18.470
we would say, from the scriptures, and seek to find ways to break
192
00:18:18.589 --> 00:18:22.630
apart the bonds of the Lord on
us or the bonds between the father and
193
00:18:22.670 --> 00:18:26.220
the son. To deny him,
to deny his authority, to walk away
194
00:18:26.259 --> 00:18:32.140
from him, is to come into
a very dangerous place, do you see?
195
00:18:32.420 --> 00:18:40.579
And sends the importance of knowing Jesus
as the son of God. We,
196
00:18:40.700 --> 00:18:45.170
of course, can deny this openly, as many do, to deny
197
00:18:45.410 --> 00:18:52.250
his authority and his his divine nature, but a lot of people also deny
198
00:18:52.529 --> 00:18:59.160
Jesus's role, a Jesus nature rather
as the son of God, in hidden
199
00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:03.960
ways. This is, I'll s
say, true of me too. Sometimes
200
00:19:04.039 --> 00:19:07.480
there are ways in which we confess
with our mouths that he is the son
201
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:14.349
of God, but then deny it
with our lives, ways in which we
202
00:19:14.470 --> 00:19:18.390
act, and though he's sort of
just another one of us, just another
203
00:19:18.549 --> 00:19:23.380
teacher or important person who's done something
great. We don't really give him are
204
00:19:23.619 --> 00:19:29.099
all like you would, if he
were God, all of our heart,
205
00:19:29.299 --> 00:19:32.339
all of our mind, all of
our soul, all of our strength.
206
00:19:32.700 --> 00:19:37.849
That's what he is. God deserves. Jesus says, take up your cross
207
00:19:37.930 --> 00:19:44.250
and follow me, sacrifice things,
sacrifice everything for me. And if you
208
00:19:44.369 --> 00:19:47.410
are truly our king, if you
were truly our God, wouldn't we be
209
00:19:47.529 --> 00:19:52.319
willing to do that? Psalm,
too, says kiss the sun, and
210
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:56.599
so often in our lives we say, well, if it's easy, okay,
211
00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:02.759
if it's convenient, if it's the
right I'm if my friends won't bother
212
00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:08.349
me about it, if the society
won't trouble me, sure I'd be happy
213
00:20:08.349 --> 00:20:14.910
to kiss the Sun. But that's
not the kind of submission that God wants.
214
00:20:14.950 --> 00:20:18.390
It's not the kind of love that
God wants. He wants all of
215
00:20:18.549 --> 00:20:22.980
us, and not just when it's
convenient and when it's easy, but when
216
00:20:23.019 --> 00:20:30.019
it's hard too. And so if
we desire, as we do, desire
217
00:20:30.500 --> 00:20:33.980
beloved, as those who have been
born of God, those who love a
218
00:20:34.140 --> 00:20:40.369
God and have because they have been
loved by God, as We desire to
219
00:20:40.450 --> 00:20:44.450
show him that kind of of love
is we desire to submit to him in
220
00:20:44.569 --> 00:20:48.809
those ways because of the things that
he has done for us. Let's be
221
00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:56.599
bold about smashing our idols. Let's
not be hesitant when we see things that
222
00:20:56.759 --> 00:21:03.279
we would prefer to be close with, or closer with than him, whether
223
00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:11.589
that's particular relationships in our lives or
particular political leaders or particular aspects of culture,
224
00:21:12.029 --> 00:21:18.390
technology or entertainment, whatever it is. If there's things that we'd rather
225
00:21:18.509 --> 00:21:22.779
die for, then die for Jesus, if there's things we'd rather cling to
226
00:21:23.140 --> 00:21:30.460
than cling to Jesus, let us
smash those things. Let's let him smash
227
00:21:30.579 --> 00:21:37.009
them for us by his Holy Spirit
working in our lives. Let our prayer
228
00:21:37.089 --> 00:21:41.890
be Lord, be at work within
me, help me to love you.
229
00:21:41.210 --> 00:21:45.210
Have mercy on me so that I
might love you and submit to you and
230
00:21:45.490 --> 00:21:55.000
come to and find refuge in you. And we can do that because the
231
00:21:55.119 --> 00:22:00.670
sun who has come, has come
in grace, the word that has been
232
00:22:00.750 --> 00:22:06.950
spoken, the light has been that
is shined in the darkness. It came
233
00:22:06.990 --> 00:22:11.910
into a dark world and it came
in a very humble way. The Lord,
234
00:22:11.069 --> 00:22:18.299
our Savior, the son of God, the everlasting father, our savior,
235
00:22:18.460 --> 00:22:26.259
was born in a manger. Our
Savior died on a cross. The
236
00:22:26.460 --> 00:22:34.250
Lord Hid his glory and he came
into the world in this humble way so
237
00:22:34.450 --> 00:22:41.490
he could die for you. The
Lord's promise of forgiveness is true and you
238
00:22:41.609 --> 00:22:49.240
can believe it, because he's God
and he doesn't lie. Let's pray
