00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:26.840
<v Speaker 1>constructions before leaving earth. Man, you know we call the

22
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:30.959
<v Speaker 1>Bible and we're a different type of Bible podcast we

23
00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:34.560
<v Speaker 1>really are. I like to take testimonies from my world,

24
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:37.280
<v Speaker 1>your world, and the collective world around us and try

25
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:39.560
<v Speaker 1>to wrap it around the scriptures that have been given

26
00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:42.439
<v Speaker 1>to us each and every day right in front of

27

29
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:53.879
<v Speaker 1>you like that brother at that table. Sometimes the Lord

30
00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:57.640
<v Speaker 1>will shake me as I'm reading the word. Or maybe

31
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.680
<v Speaker 1>we'll just be able to transform you through whatever God

32
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>has to say to you and I Today and again,

33
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:03.959
<v Speaker 1>I want to let you guys know something.

34
00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:05.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know everything.

35
00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:08.759
<v Speaker 1>You got that right, Hey, calm down, mister moviephone over there.

36
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:11.919
<v Speaker 1>You're right, I don't got it all right. I don't

37
00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:15.479
<v Speaker 1>know it all, but we're learning together in this podcast

38
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:17.919
<v Speaker 1>is for me as much as it is for you.

39
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.759
<v Speaker 1>So let's take a step back now. Last week we

40
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:22.599
<v Speaker 1>started our brand news series.

41
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:24.360
<v Speaker 2>Called Bible Breakdown.

42
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, mister moviefone for that. We can't afford a

43
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:30.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, a cool drop where.

44
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:34.080
<v Speaker 2>It's like Bible Breakdown. We can't do that.

45
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:38.599
<v Speaker 1>So mister moviefone over here gives us the vocal stylings

46
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:42.080
<v Speaker 1>that we need to get you ready for today's Bible

00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:51.879
<v Speaker 1>started it, and today we're gonna be in the Book

50
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:54.199
<v Speaker 1>of Matthew. We were in the Book of Peter last week.

51
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:57.560
<v Speaker 1>I love Peter. He's my favorite disciple. I'm kind of

52
00:02:57.639 --> 00:02:58.159
<v Speaker 1>like Peter.

53
00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:00.479
<v Speaker 2>Go back and check out that episode.

54
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:03.520
<v Speaker 1>But in this episode we're gonna talk about Matthew. We're

55
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:06.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna be at the part where Jesus is arrested in

56
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:09.759
<v Speaker 1>the Garden of Josemite. Now to set things up, and

57
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:12.080
<v Speaker 1>if you're following along at home, if you have a Bible,

58
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:14.919
<v Speaker 1>great follow us. If you don't, get a Bible app

59
00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:16.879
<v Speaker 1>on your phone, if you're non believer and you're an

60
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:20.039
<v Speaker 1>atheist and you're still sticking around, you feel that pool

61
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:22.919
<v Speaker 1>come in, I know, just continue to follow with us.

62
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:26.479
<v Speaker 1>Here today we're gonna be in chapter twenty six, verses

63
00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:30.039
<v Speaker 1>forty seven through fifty six. And now, I know your

64
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:32.599
<v Speaker 1>non believers out there, when you hear all that, you're like, oh,

65
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:34.039
<v Speaker 1>this is gonna take forever.

66
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:34.719
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, no.

67
00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:38.319
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna paraphrase it a little bit today. Okay, we're

68
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:41.719
<v Speaker 1>gonna cliff notes version, but we're gonna hit some keynotes

69
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:43.719
<v Speaker 1>as well. This is why it's imperative for you to

70
00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:46.639
<v Speaker 1>have a Bible or maybe just a Bible app on

71
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:49.039
<v Speaker 1>your phone like I do as well. But let's give

72
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:51.919
<v Speaker 1>you a little bit of setup. Okay, let's kind of

73
00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:54.560
<v Speaker 1>go back to where we're at. We're in the garden

74
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:58.120
<v Speaker 1>of Josemite, right, They just got ready to have their

75
00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:02.639
<v Speaker 1>last supper together as disciples at the table. Judas had

76
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:06.199
<v Speaker 1>already gone to the priests and Sadducees to set up

77
00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:08.919
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a let's call it a roadblock,

78
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:13.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe a setup. Yeah, definitely a setup. Let's

79
00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:15.680
<v Speaker 1>call it a setup. We'll keep it like Good Fellas

80
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Gangster for us, all right. I told you we're gonna

81
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.600
<v Speaker 1>wrap scripture around your world, my world, and the collective

82
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:24.199
<v Speaker 1>world around us. So let's make it like movie for him.

83
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Here's Judas. He goes to this Sadducees and Pharisees because

84
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:30.680
<v Speaker 1>they were going to pay him some money to turn

85
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:33.680
<v Speaker 1>his back on Jesus and let them know where Jesus

86
00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:37.120
<v Speaker 1>was going to be so they can arrest him. Well,

87
00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:40.319
<v Speaker 1>they're sitting at the table Judas and the other disciples

88
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:45.560
<v Speaker 1>along with Jesus, and Jesus says, guys, one of you

89
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:50.360
<v Speaker 1>are going to betray me tonight. One of you are

90
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:53.759
<v Speaker 1>going to stab me in the back now again paraphrasing.

91
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Can you imagine if you're the one that did it,

92
00:04:57.040 --> 00:04:59.319
<v Speaker 1>if you're Judas, have you ever done this with a

93
00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 1>friend where you know, oh, they did something wrong and you've.

94
00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:03.319
<v Speaker 2>Called them right out right.

95
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:06.040
<v Speaker 1>You're like Mark or Jony, I know you did this.

96
00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:11.439
<v Speaker 1>But Jesus is so Robert de Niro esque sitting at

97
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:16.040
<v Speaker 1>this table of all his disciples, and he's like, one

98
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:21.079
<v Speaker 1>of you will betray me tonight. This just sets in

99
00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:25.959
<v Speaker 1>that anxiety, that depression, that dark side inside of Judas,

100
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.879
<v Speaker 1>which he had already been feeling once he accepted the

101
00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>money and he walked out of the temple to go

102
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:36.120
<v Speaker 1>back to the garden and have dinner. The disciples are

103
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.519
<v Speaker 1>at the table saying, it's not me, it's probably you.

104
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:39.279
<v Speaker 2>It's me, it's you.

105
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Remember, disciples are humans like you and I. They fought,

106
00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:50.399
<v Speaker 1>they loved, they argued, and at the table that night,

107
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:52.279
<v Speaker 1>you know they had to have been saying something. And

108
00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Jesus is like, listen, I need to go out into

109
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:58.079
<v Speaker 1>the garden and pray for the time of the hour

110
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:01.680
<v Speaker 1>is coming for things to happen, based he said paraphrased again,

111
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:06.759
<v Speaker 1>And he just wanted his disciples to pray for him.

112
00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:09.600
<v Speaker 1>And when he went into the garden, he came back

113
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:12.439
<v Speaker 1>and saw that his disciples were sleeping, and Jesus showed

114
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:16.399
<v Speaker 1>anger here like he did in the courtyard with the

115
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:20.199
<v Speaker 1>tax collectors in the Bible. He said, are you still

116
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:21.279
<v Speaker 1>sleeping and resting?

117
00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:21.560
<v Speaker 2>Look?

118
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:24.839
<v Speaker 1>The hour has come and the son of Man is

119
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:29.199
<v Speaker 1>delivered into the hands of sinners. Did you hear that

120
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.319
<v Speaker 1>he's already prophesizing that these people were coming to take

121
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and arrest him.

122
00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Rise, let us go.

123
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:43.240
<v Speaker 1>Here comes my betrayer. He even called his betrayer as

124
00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:46.360
<v Speaker 1>he walked near him, And it's Judas. Now we get

125
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:49.600
<v Speaker 1>into chapter twenty six, verses forty seven through fifty six.

126
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:54.319
<v Speaker 1>While he was still speaking Judas, one of the twelve

127
00:06:54.600 --> 00:07:01.199
<v Speaker 1>arrived with a large armed army that was actually sent

128
00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:06.319
<v Speaker 1>from the chief priests and the elders. Now the betrayer

129
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:09.759
<v Speaker 1>had arranged a signal with these men. It would be

130
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:13.959
<v Speaker 1>a kiss on the cheek, by the way, and this

131
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:17.279
<v Speaker 1>would point out who Jesus was and who they were

132
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:23.480
<v Speaker 1>looking for to arrest. Jesus sees Judas, and Judas walks

133
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:27.480
<v Speaker 1>over to Jesus and he looks like he's all excited. Greetings, Rabbi,

134
00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:32.279
<v Speaker 1>Greetings rabbi, and then kissed him, and in.

135
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:35.360
<v Speaker 2>Verse fifty, Jesus shows grace.

136
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Jesus replied, do what you came for?

137
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:43.839
<v Speaker 2>Friend? Would you do that today?

138
00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:48.759
<v Speaker 1>This is about grace and faith. Do you have enough

139
00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:51.319
<v Speaker 1>grace when something bad is going on in your life,

140
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:56.680
<v Speaker 1>or you've been harmed against to show grace? Maybe someone

141
00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:58.959
<v Speaker 1>broke up with you, Maybe you lost a job to

142
00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:02.480
<v Speaker 1>a boss you didn't quite like. Would you ever say

143
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:06.639
<v Speaker 1>to that boss? Listen, I understand that the world has

144
00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:11.480
<v Speaker 1>to make cuts. Don't let us be a bother to you.

145
00:08:12.120 --> 00:08:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I'll be fine. No, what do you say when you're fired?

146
00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:19.759
<v Speaker 1>You say things I can't even say on the podcast

147
00:08:19.839 --> 00:08:24.199
<v Speaker 1>right now? Okay, because this is a biblical show, All right, that's.

148
00:08:23.959 --> 00:08:26.240
<v Speaker 2>What you do. We all do it because we're human.

149
00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:30.399
<v Speaker 1>That light is in a ball inside of us, waiting

150
00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:35.000
<v Speaker 1>to burst out. But when we go through anguish and

151
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:40.960
<v Speaker 1>pain wronged by someone, it's hard to show grace. Sometimes

152
00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:44.919
<v Speaker 1>and Jesus shows it right here. Chapter twenty six, verse

153
00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:51.799
<v Speaker 1>fifty of Matthew, Jesus replied, do what you came for, friend.

154
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:57.279
<v Speaker 1>Then the men step forward and seize Jesus and arrested him.

155
00:08:57.639 --> 00:08:59.879
<v Speaker 1>And this is where Peter, this is kind of an

156
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.279
<v Speaker 1>extension of last week's show I talked about Peter. Peter

157
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:07.320
<v Speaker 1>Man was the rock for Jesus. I mean, Jesus even

158
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:12.279
<v Speaker 1>called him my rock. Peter loved Jesus so much, but

159
00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:16.000
<v Speaker 1>even denied Jesus three times, just like we do. We

160
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:21.960
<v Speaker 1>deny Jesus daily, believer or non believer, we deny him daily,

161
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:25.399
<v Speaker 1>but he's still right there loving us. So Peter at

162
00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:28.480
<v Speaker 1>this moment pulls out his sword and cuts an ear

163
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:31.559
<v Speaker 1>off of one of the Roman guards and one of

164
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:34.360
<v Speaker 1>the men that came to arrest Jesus. And in verse

165
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:38.120
<v Speaker 1>fifty two, Jesus has put your sword back in its place,

166
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:42.159
<v Speaker 1>Jesus said to him, for all who draw the sword

167
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:45.399
<v Speaker 1>will die by the sword. So, in other words, in

168
00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:49.720
<v Speaker 1>this verse, anytime you show negativity or harm towards someone,

169
00:09:49.879 --> 00:09:54.559
<v Speaker 1>what happens harm comes back to you. This wraps right

170
00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:57.639
<v Speaker 1>back to verse fifty right there, do what you came

171
00:09:57.679 --> 00:10:03.440
<v Speaker 1>for friends showing grace. Then two verses later, here's Peter

172
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:06.240
<v Speaker 1>trying to cut off an ear. He didn't even hear

173
00:10:06.279 --> 00:10:09.879
<v Speaker 1>what Jesus said in verse fifty None of us do.

174
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:12.879
<v Speaker 1>When we skip over that verse, we read this as

175
00:10:12.879 --> 00:10:13.840
<v Speaker 1>it's a story.

176
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:14.799
<v Speaker 2>We don't read it.

177
00:10:14.759 --> 00:10:18.480
<v Speaker 1>In the context that it has to be. Do what

178
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:24.240
<v Speaker 1>you came for, friend. Then we go to two verses later.

179
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:28.360
<v Speaker 1>Jesus is in an altercation, and he's basically looking at

180
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.799
<v Speaker 1>Peter like a big brother. And if he could have

181
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:32.879
<v Speaker 1>took him by his robe and shook him for a moment,

182
00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:35.879
<v Speaker 1>he might have and said, put your sword back into

183
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.200
<v Speaker 1>its place. Those who live by the sword will die

184
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.559
<v Speaker 1>by the sword. How many of us are quick to

185
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:45.559
<v Speaker 1>pull out our swords, our quick wigged tongues, our silver

186
00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:49.039
<v Speaker 1>tongues to slash someone down in a heartbeat that have

187
00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:52.879
<v Speaker 1>harmed uffs. You may not have a physical sword on

188
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:56.039
<v Speaker 1>you to harm someone, but your words cut like a

189
00:10:56.120 --> 00:11:02.240
<v Speaker 1>hot knife through butter. You've heard that phrase right. We

190
00:11:02.360 --> 00:11:04.840
<v Speaker 1>have to put our silver tongues away from time to time.

191
00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:10.559
<v Speaker 1>We have to bite our tongue and show grace. Verse

192
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:13.679
<v Speaker 1>fifty three. Do you think I cannot call my father?

193
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I love this, and he will once put at my

194
00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:22.399
<v Speaker 1>disposal more than twelve legions of angels. But how then

195
00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:27.000
<v Speaker 1>would the scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen

196
00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:32.519
<v Speaker 1>this way? Bounce back for a minute. Here, he's basically saying,

197
00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:34.919
<v Speaker 1>you don't think I can call on my dad to

198
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:40.639
<v Speaker 1>bring my boys from heaven to take care of this situation. Now,

199
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:45.039
<v Speaker 1>that shows the lack of faith that the disciples had.

200
00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:50.039
<v Speaker 1>They forgot that everything needed to be prophesied. This moment

201
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:53.279
<v Speaker 1>had to happen. There's something happening in your life right

202
00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:58.480
<v Speaker 1>now that has to happen good, bad, or ugly. But

203
00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:01.240
<v Speaker 1>you have to find that silver lining by walking with

204
00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:07.799
<v Speaker 1>Jesus today in order to figure it out. Jesus is

205
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:12.759
<v Speaker 1>calling you right now saying, walk with me, Walk with me.

206
00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:16.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm showing you grace, show others in your life grace today,

207
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:19.679
<v Speaker 1>and I'll show you why this is happening. It's not

208
00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:22.159
<v Speaker 1>a punishment that you're going through what you're going through.

209
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:27.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what that punishment is today. But right

210
00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:29.080
<v Speaker 1>there he even says, don't you think I can't call

211
00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:33.399
<v Speaker 1>my dad to come get these people. Remember when we

212
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:37.039
<v Speaker 1>were kids. I'm gonna go get my dad so Jesus

213
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:42.960
<v Speaker 1>is saying, but the disciples even forgot about that. Then

214
00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:45.480
<v Speaker 1>he goes on to say, but how would the scriptures

215
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:50.399
<v Speaker 1>be fulfilled? You hear that phrase, if you're a believer,

216
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:55.720
<v Speaker 1>non believer, this has to happen. We have to go

217
00:12:55.799 --> 00:12:58.159
<v Speaker 1>through these things in life in order to learn right.

218
00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:02.600
<v Speaker 1>You've heard that phrase before. Well, here it is biblically.

219
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:05.440
<v Speaker 1>But how then would the scriptures be fulfilled?

220
00:13:06.360 --> 00:13:06.759
<v Speaker 2>That say?

221
00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:12.080
<v Speaker 1>It must happen in this way? In that hour, Jesus

222
00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:15.639
<v Speaker 1>said to the court, am I leading a rebellion, that

223
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:18.279
<v Speaker 1>you have to come out with swords and clubs to

224
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:22.679
<v Speaker 1>capture me. Every day I sat at the temple courts teaching,

225
00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:26.200
<v Speaker 1>and you did not arrest me. You had your opportunity,

226
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:29.960
<v Speaker 1>he said, right then and there. But this has all

227
00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:36.480
<v Speaker 1>taken place that the writings of the prophets might be fulfilled.

228
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:40.320
<v Speaker 1>They could have arrested him at any time. They could

229
00:13:40.320 --> 00:13:43.799
<v Speaker 1>have took him anytime they wanted to. But this moment

230
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:47.000
<v Speaker 1>in time happened for a reason. To put forth all

231
00:13:47.120 --> 00:13:51.039
<v Speaker 1>the things you're going to see later. When he was beaten,

232
00:13:51.159 --> 00:13:55.440
<v Speaker 1>spit upon, killed, put on a cross for our sins.

233
00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:59.559
<v Speaker 1>This moment had to happen, this minuscule moment, this arrest

234
00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:02.279
<v Speaker 1>had to happen. So Katie, what does that have to

235
00:14:02.279 --> 00:14:05.679
<v Speaker 1>do with me today? I want you to have faith

236
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.000
<v Speaker 1>enough that something is happening in your life today for

237
00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:13.320
<v Speaker 1>something that is to come. It's hard to see the

238
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:17.240
<v Speaker 1>future when we're dwelling so much in the present and

239
00:14:17.639 --> 00:14:23.080
<v Speaker 1>allowing the opposition to put these rocks of anxiety and

240
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:26.960
<v Speaker 1>depression on us, and anger and hurt and just keeps

241
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.799
<v Speaker 1>dumping these rocks on us to make us feel heavy

242
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:33.799
<v Speaker 1>to the point where we can't come out of that grave. No,

243
00:14:34.399 --> 00:14:37.879
<v Speaker 1>this is your opportunity. This is your opportunity to call

244
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:41.639
<v Speaker 1>upon the Lord and say, Lord, this had to happen,

245
00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:47.039
<v Speaker 1>show me why it had to happen, and please give

246
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:49.080
<v Speaker 1>me the strength to get out of it. And he will,

247
00:14:49.639 --> 00:14:52.080
<v Speaker 1>he will. He believes in you that much, just like Peter.

248
00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:56.399
<v Speaker 1>Peter denied him three times. Peter cut a Roman ear

249
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.000
<v Speaker 1>off right, then Jesus went and healed that that Roman guard.

250
00:15:01.399 --> 00:15:03.519
<v Speaker 1>Let's stop there for a minute. Jesus went over and

251
00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:07.120
<v Speaker 1>fixed the guy's ear. All of those men could have

252
00:15:07.200 --> 00:15:10.320
<v Speaker 1>let Jesus go, because they all could have followed Jesus

253
00:15:10.320 --> 00:15:13.080
<v Speaker 1>and believed in everything they saw because of that miracle,

254
00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:19.840
<v Speaker 1>but they didn't. The moment had to happen. A death

255
00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:22.759
<v Speaker 1>in your family had to happen. A death of a

256
00:15:22.799 --> 00:15:25.759
<v Speaker 1>baby had to happen. You putting a needle in your

257
00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:29.159
<v Speaker 1>arm had to happen. Me going through what I went through,

258
00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:34.360
<v Speaker 1>drugs and rocket roll in entertainment and losing my first

259
00:15:34.399 --> 00:15:38.120
<v Speaker 1>wife and having a rickety relationship with with my elder

260
00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:43.159
<v Speaker 1>son had to happen. So my current generation of sons

261
00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:48.000
<v Speaker 1>and hopefully my grandson see I even said hope, I

262
00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:50.360
<v Speaker 1>should have the faith enough to know that Jesus Christ

263
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:54.360
<v Speaker 1>himself will pull my eldest son and his family out

264
00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:58.159
<v Speaker 1>of obscurity to follow the Lord. But guess what, I'm

265
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:03.960
<v Speaker 1>human those words slip and say hope. I know my

266
00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:09.080
<v Speaker 1>youngest sons are out of it because they're following Jesus.

267
00:16:09.279 --> 00:16:11.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know my other son's walk. I don't know

268
00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:14.759
<v Speaker 1>my grandson's walk. All I can do is be a

269
00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:19.600
<v Speaker 1>light and have that faith and grace that Jesus showed

270
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:28.559
<v Speaker 1>everybody in his arrest. In the final line of this verse,

271
00:16:28.559 --> 00:16:35.840
<v Speaker 1>where Jesus is being arrested, Jesus says, or Jesus doesn't

272
00:16:35.879 --> 00:16:40.600
<v Speaker 1>say it ends with then all the disciples deserted him

273
00:16:40.840 --> 00:16:48.000
<v Speaker 1>and fled. Oh, I want that to set in for

274
00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:51.919
<v Speaker 1>a minute. So let's cliff notes version it. He was

275
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:56.960
<v Speaker 1>stabbed in the back, he showed grace. There was anger,

276
00:16:58.480 --> 00:16:59.679
<v Speaker 1>he showed grace again.

277
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:02.360
<v Speaker 2>He showed that this had to happen.

278
00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:08.680
<v Speaker 1>He showed faith right there. He even showed everybody, you

279
00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:10.640
<v Speaker 1>could have arrested me at any time. You could have

280
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:12.920
<v Speaker 1>killed me at any time. You could have followed me

281
00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:15.279
<v Speaker 1>at any time, but you chose not to. But it

282
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:17.920
<v Speaker 1>had to happen for a reason. And then all the

283
00:17:17.960 --> 00:17:23.559
<v Speaker 1>disciples anyway deserted him and fled. We do this daily,

284
00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:28.680
<v Speaker 1>ladies and gentlemen, constantly. We do this daily where we

285
00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:34.640
<v Speaker 1>just go ahead and we abandon Jesus. We abandon him

286
00:17:35.279 --> 00:17:40.000
<v Speaker 1>even when he does all this great stuff, and it

287
00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:45.119
<v Speaker 1>seems like we have lack of faith. Right we're human.

288
00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:45.880
<v Speaker 2>He knows that.

289
00:17:47.640 --> 00:17:50.000
<v Speaker 1>He just wants us to continue to come to him

290
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:55.680
<v Speaker 1>and show this love love toward him. That's what he

291
00:17:55.720 --> 00:18:02.400
<v Speaker 1>wants to see. And this is your opportunity right now.

292
00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:06.559
<v Speaker 1>How he showed grace. He wants you to show grace

293
00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:09.640
<v Speaker 1>on that situation in your life that may be holding

294
00:18:09.759 --> 00:18:13.799
<v Speaker 1>you down. Maybe grace to yourself. I don't always show

295
00:18:13.839 --> 00:18:19.799
<v Speaker 1>myself grace. So this is your opportunity right now.

296
00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:21.359
<v Speaker 2>To show grace.

297
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.559
<v Speaker 1>Faith man, faith, to know that something had to happen,

298
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:33.000
<v Speaker 1>so you can come out on the other side of it, stronger, deeper,

299
00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:38.720
<v Speaker 1>and more advance than you'll ever be by just following Jesus.

300
00:18:39.079 --> 00:18:42.559
<v Speaker 1>He's telling us this there and the disciple still left him.

301
00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:47.039
<v Speaker 1>We'll all fault right there, Romans, we all fall short

302
00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:49.039
<v Speaker 1>of the glory of God. We love saying it here

303
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:51.359
<v Speaker 1>on the show. That's another verse in the Bible, from

304
00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:55.759
<v Speaker 1>the Book of Romans that is the biggest will fall

305
00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:59.119
<v Speaker 1>short moment right there. We'll see in the Book of Matthew,

306
00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:03.119
<v Speaker 1>then all the disciples deserted him and fled. Don't desert

307
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:06.119
<v Speaker 1>him today. For those of you that are still here,

308
00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:09.279
<v Speaker 1>thank you for hanging out with us. This is your

309
00:19:09.279 --> 00:19:14.759
<v Speaker 1>opportunity right now to really start a new relationship with Christ.

310
00:19:15.640 --> 00:19:16.240
<v Speaker 2>It really is.

311
00:19:16.279 --> 00:19:20.480
<v Speaker 1>It's really your opportunity, your moment to start things with

312
00:19:20.640 --> 00:19:21.079
<v Speaker 1>the Lord.

313
00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:25.480
<v Speaker 2>And how do you do that? Well, have you ever prayed? Oh?

314
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:27.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh the p r A y word.

315
00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:31.680
<v Speaker 1>No, I haven't, Katie. Well, this is your chance. I'll

316
00:19:31.720 --> 00:19:34.039
<v Speaker 1>help you. All you have to do is close your

317
00:19:34.039 --> 00:19:37.759
<v Speaker 1>eyes and repeat after me. He just wants your heart.

318
00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:40.599
<v Speaker 1>He knows what you want to say. He knows what

319
00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:46.000
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna say. I know what you're thinking. Then why all, Well,

320
00:19:46.440 --> 00:19:49.759
<v Speaker 1>my wife may know I love her, but I need

321
00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:53.240
<v Speaker 1>to tell her I love her to grow the relationship.

322
00:19:56.000 --> 00:19:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Jesus is doing the same thing right now, knocking on

323
00:19:58.279 --> 00:20:04.640
<v Speaker 1>your door constantly saying I'm here. I'm not leaving. I'm

324
00:20:04.640 --> 00:20:06.559
<v Speaker 1>gonna camp right out on this door till you open

325
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:09.279
<v Speaker 1>up and say come on in. And this is that

326
00:20:09.359 --> 00:20:12.799
<v Speaker 1>come on in moment. So just repeat after me if

327
00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:17.200
<v Speaker 1>you want more faith, more grace, more power, more love,

328
00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:24.519
<v Speaker 1>more understanding in your life, just like Matthew Chapter twenty six,

329
00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Verses forty seven through fifty six, that Jesus showed, this

330
00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:34.119
<v Speaker 1>is your time. Dear God, repeat after me. Dear God,

331
00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:37.319
<v Speaker 1>I come to you in the precious name of Jesus

332
00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:40.759
<v Speaker 1>and the Holy Spirit. Thank you Lord for this day,

333
00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:43.839
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for new life.

334
00:20:44.079 --> 00:20:44.640
<v Speaker 2>Dear Lord.

335
00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:51.119
<v Speaker 1>I can't do this on my own anymore. I fall

336
00:20:51.160 --> 00:20:53.559
<v Speaker 1>short of the glory of God daily.

337
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:56.559
<v Speaker 2>But I believe in you.

338
00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:03.960
<v Speaker 1>I believe that you were born, that you rose. You

339
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:08.480
<v Speaker 1>also died for our sins, and that you rose on

340
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:14.480
<v Speaker 1>that third day for your victory and mine. Dear Lord,

341
00:21:14.559 --> 00:21:17.559
<v Speaker 1>make me new cleanse me of my sins right now,

342
00:21:19.519 --> 00:21:22.079
<v Speaker 1>Walk with me and allow me to walk with you

343
00:21:22.200 --> 00:21:28.359
<v Speaker 1>until my end of days. Make me your personal Lord

344
00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:33.119
<v Speaker 1>and Savior. We love you, Lord, I love you Lord,

345
00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:36.400
<v Speaker 1>and we pray in the precious name of Jesus.

346
00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:39.799
<v Speaker 2>Amen. It's called the Romans Road.

347
00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:44.160
<v Speaker 1>Look it up, pray it to him, Talk to him.

348
00:21:44.359 --> 00:21:47.160
<v Speaker 1>But if you just said all that, welcome to the Kingdom,

349
00:21:47.519 --> 00:21:51.519
<v Speaker 1>what do I do nar next? Well, get your nose

350
00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:54.000
<v Speaker 1>in that Bible. Guys, we'll see on the flip side

351
00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:55.640
<v Speaker 1>for another Bible breakdown next week.

352
00:21:55.960 --> 00:21:57.599
<v Speaker 2>God bless y'all and take care.
