1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 1: Let us pray, But without faith, it is impossible to

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,680
Speaker 1: please him. For he that cometh to God must believe

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: that He is, and that He is a rewarder of

4
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:18,479
Speaker 1: them that diligently seek him Hebrews eleven six. My good

5
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 1: works are not enough to please you Lord. My belief

6
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 1: in your reality is what you are looking for in me.

7
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: You created me for an intimate love relationship with you.

8
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: You desire to fellowship with me and have honest communion

9
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: with me. As I diligently seek you in your word

10
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:42,520
Speaker 1: and through prayer, you will reveal yourself to me. Out

11
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: of the overflow of my love for you, good works

12
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: will naturally spring forth. They will be borne from my

13
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: faith in you, and not the pride of my flesh.

14
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: What is born of the spirit of love has eternal value.

15
00:00:59,520 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: Amen.

Speaker 4: of temptation, struggle and failure. Join Pastor Jeff as we

Speaker 4: learned three encouraging insights about the mercy of God that

38
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 4: we find at the Throne of Grace.

39
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 2: Hebrews Chapter four, such a great passage of scripture. Hebrews

40
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: was written by an unnamed author. We don't know who

41
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 2: wrote Hebrews. I love what Walter Martin says about Hebrews.

42
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 2: It says the Book of Hebrews was written by a

43
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 2: Hebrew to other Hebrews, telling the Hebrews to stop acting

44
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: like Hebrews. See what is the Book of Hebrews it's about.

45
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: It's talking to Jews, Jews who were true believers in

46
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: one camp, and intellectual believers but never really trusted Christ

47
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: in another camp. And the third camp was those who

48
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 2: are investigating Jesus. And the Book of Hebrews tells us

49
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 2: that Jesus is better than Moses, better than Aaron, better

50
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: than the Temple, better than Melchizedek, better than the Angels.

51
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 2: He is the pearl of great price, he is everything.

52
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 2: And the judicial or the sacrificial system that is recorded

53
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 2: in the Book of Leviticus, that is obsolete because the

54
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 2: Lamb of God has come and he has given himself,

55
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 2: and he is now our high priest, and we don't

56
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 2: need to give the sacrifices anymore. So a Hebrew telling

57
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: Hebrews to stop acting like Hebrews. We don't have to

58
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 2: have this sacrificial system anymore because Jesus has made that obsolete.

59
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 2: And this is what he says in chapter four, beginning

60
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 2: in verse fourteen. Since then we have a great high

61
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 2: priest who has passed through the heavens Jesus the Son

62
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: of God. Let us hold fast our confession, for we

63
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with

64
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 2: our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in all

65
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 2: things as we are yet without sin. Let Us therefore

66
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 2: draw near with confidence to the Throne of Grace, that

67
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 2: we may receive mercy and find grace to help in

68
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 2: time of need. Three insights from these three verses that

69
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: are so encourage, that are so helpful, that have helped me,

70
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 2: and I trust they will help you. Insight Number one,

71
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: our great High Priest has paved the way for us.

72
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 2: He has paved the way for us since then Verse fourteen.

73
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 2: We have a great high priest who has passed through

74
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 2: the heavens, Jesus the Son of God. Let us hold

75
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 2: fast our confession. Now this is a Jewish book written

76
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 2: to Jews. They knew about the sacrificial system. They knew

77
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 2: about the high priest. You know, the high priest was

78
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: from the tribe of Levi, and he was a descendant

79
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 2: of Erin you had. All the priests came from the

80
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 2: tribe of Levi. Levi, but the chief priest the high priest,

81
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 2: the ones who went into the temple, the ones who

82
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 2: offered the sacrifices. They were from the sons or from

83
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:54,799
Speaker 2: the lineage of Erin, Moses' brother Aaron, and the chief priest.

84
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:59,239
Speaker 2: The high priest would go into the temple one time

85
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 2: a year, and he'd go past the outer court into

86
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 2: the inner court, into the innermost court, and he would

87
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: offer sacrifices for the people on the day of Atonement

88
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 2: on Yam kippor. Well, that was the high priest in

89
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 2: the Old Testament. That's the high priest that the Jews knew.

90
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 2: These Hebrews that he's writing to, they knew about that.

91
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 2: He says, Jesus is not just a high priest. He's

92
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 2: a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek. He's

93
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 2: the greatest high priest. He's greater than any Aaron. He's

94
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 2: greater than any Melchizedic. He's greater than any angel. He

95
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 2: is the great high priest. And what has he done.

96
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,919
Speaker 2: He has passed through the heavens. Jesus, the Son of God.

97
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: Jesus became our high priest through the blood of his

98
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 2: cross and the power of his resurrection. That's when he

99
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 2: became our high priest. Some will argue with that and say, well,

100
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 2: he was the high priest in John seventeen, as he

101
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 2: praised his high priestly prayer. But he became the high

102
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 2: priest according to scripture, when he died on the cross

103
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 2: and rose again from the dead. Look what it says

104
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 2: in Hebrews two seventeen. Therefore he had to be made

105
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 2: like his brethren in all things, that he might become

106
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 2: a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God,

107
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 2: to make propitiation, satisfaction, forgiveness for the sins of the people.

108
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 2: That's what Jesus did when he died on the cross

109
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 2: and rose again from the dead, and then ascended into heaven.

110
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 2: He passed through the heavens. The high priest would pass

111
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: through the veil. But when Jesus died on the cross,

112
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 2: the veil of the temple was torn into from top

113
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 2: to bottom. And he has passed through all the way

114
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 2: to the heavens. And what did he do when he

115
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 2: ascended to heaven. He sat down at the right hand

116
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 2: of the throne of God. No priest ever did that,

117
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 2: No high priest ever sat down. You didn't There's no

118
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 2: chair in the Holy Place or in the Holy of Holies.

119
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: Definitely not in the Holy of Holies. You don't want

120
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 2: to sit down in the Holy of Holies. If you

121
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 2: said I'm just going to hang out in the presence

122
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 2: of God here in the Holy of Holies, for sure

123
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 2: you would have been fried. So you go in there,

124
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 2: you do what you need to do, and you get out.

125
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 2: No priests ever sat down. Here's what the Bible says

126
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 2: Hebrews chapter ten, beginning in verse eleven. And every priest

127
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: stands daily, ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices,

128
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 2: which can never take away sins. But he, having offered

129
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 2: one sacrifice for sins for all time, sat down at

130
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 2: the right hand of God, waiting from that time onward

131
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 2: until his enemies be made a footstool for his feet.

132
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 2: For by one offering he has perfected for all time.

133
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 2: Those who are sanctified the Old Testament priest, they sacrifice

134
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 2: year after year, day after day. There's always sacrifice that's

135
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 2: taking place at the temple. John MacArthur said, a priest

136
00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 2: and the Old Testament system was basically a butcher. He's

137
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 2: just constantly cutting up animals and offering them on the altar,

138
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 2: and the high priest is going in on the day

139
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: of yam Kapor, offering blood on the altar. Jesus offered

140
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 2: himself behold the lamb of God. John the Baptist said,

141
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 2: who takes away the sin of the world, For by

142
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 2: one offering he has perfected forever those who are sanctified,

143
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 2: those who are set apart. In Jesus, so he sat

144
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 2: down because his work was finished. What did he say

145
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 2: on the cross? It is finished tetaleste. I paid in full.

146
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 2: I paid it all. And the veil of the temple

147
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 2: was torn into from top to bottom. And Jesus lives

148
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 2: to make innercession for us. Now this is interesting about

149
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 2: the Lord Jesus. See in the Old Testament you have

150
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 2: three offices, three main offices that are talked about the

151
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 2: office of priest. And priest is an intercessor. He's a

152
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 2: go between. He presents the people to God, God to

153
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 2: the people. The priest he stands in the gap. And

154
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 2: then you you have the prophet who speaks on behalf

155
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 2: of God. And we read about so many Old Testament prophets.

156
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 2: And then you have the king. And the king was

157
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 2: not a prophet and he was not a priest. You remember,

158
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 2: in the Book of First Samuel, Saul loses his kingdom.

159
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 2: Why because he took on the role of priest. He

160
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: was waiting for Samuel. Samuel was both a prophet and

161
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 2: a priest. He was waiting for Samuel to offer the sacrifice.

162
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: But Samuel was delayed in coming, and Saul got nervous

163
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: because the people started to flee from him, and they

164
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 2: started to drift away. And so he took on the

165
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 2: office a priest, and he offered the sacrifice, and sure's

166
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 2: the world. While he's offering the sacrifice, here comes Samuel

167
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 2: and he says, what are you doing. You have violated

168
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 2: your position. You are not a priest, you're the king.

169
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 2: And so in Old Testament times you didn't take on

170
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: something else like that. The king never became the priest,

171
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 2: and the priest was never the king. But in the

172
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 2: Lord Jesus he is prophet, priest and king, and his

173
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 2: earthly ministry is primarily prophet. He's preaching. He didn't do

174
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 2: anything in the temple. Jesus didn't go to the temple

175
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 2: and say, well, now I'm going to offer sacrifices. It's

176
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 2: JOm Kapor I'll go behind the Holy of Holies. He

177
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 2: didn't do that. He was prophet. But then when he

178
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 2: died on the cross, he took on and rose again

179
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 2: from the dead. He took on the position of priest.

180
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 2: And where is Jesus now? The Bible says he is

181
00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 2: in heaven. He is seated at the right hand of

182
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 2: the throne of God and Hebrews seven twenty five. He

183
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 2: always lives to make intercession for them. He's interceding for

184
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 2: you and for me. See the devil, the Bible tells

185
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 2: us Revelation chapter twelve. He accuses us before God day

186
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 2: and night, and the Lord defends us. We have an

187
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 2: advocate with the father of Jesus Christ, the Righteous. He

188
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 2: defends us before for God, night and day, and he

189
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 2: is praying for his children, interceding. He ever lives to

190
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 2: make intercession for those who are saved. So what is

191
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 2: he doing right now? He's acting as priest. And when

192
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 2: he comes again Revelation chapter nineteen, riding the white horse,

193
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 2: he comes back as king, prophet, priest, and King, our

194
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 2: great High Priest has paved the way for us. Second insight,

195
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 2: our great High Priest has sympathy for us. Verse fifteen.

196
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 2: For we do not have a high priest who cannot

197
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted

198
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 2: in all things as we are yet without sin. Now

199
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,199
Speaker 2: would be easy. As you're reading verse fourteen, Jesus, the

200
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 2: Son of God, the Son of God, did this. The

201
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 2: Son of God offered himself. The Son of God caused

202
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 2: the veil to be torn from top to bottom. The

203
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 2: Son of God sat down at the right hand of

204
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 2: the throne of God. How do you approach God and

205
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 2: can the Son of God, which you know, don't ever

206
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 2: get the idea that there's God and there's the Son

207
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: of God and he's somehow lesser than God. No, in

208
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 2: the minds of the Hebrews, if you said that Jesus

209
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 2: was the son of God, that means Jesus's deity, I

210
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 2: am the Father, are one. If you've seen me, you've

211
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 2: seen the Father before Abraham was born. I am he

212
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 2: is the Great. I am the Son of God, is

213
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 2: co equal with God. And they knew that. That's why

214
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 2: they said to Pilot he didn't want to crucify Jesus.

215
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 2: He wanted to release Jesus. And they said, we have

216
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 2: a law and by that law, he deserves to die,

217
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 2: for he has declared himself the son of God. He

218
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 2: has blasphemed because he said he was God, and he

219
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:10,479
Speaker 2: must die. That was the reason that Jesus was crucified.

220
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 2: He was crucified for being who he was, the son

221
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 2: of God. But now we look at that and we say,

222
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 2: you know, this idea about coming before the throne of

223
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 2: Grace and telling my problems to Jesus, the Son of God,

224
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 2: I have trouble sharing my struggles with God. You know,

225
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 2: how does God understand what I am struggling with? Well,

226
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 2: he is Jesus, the Son of God, Jesus, the Son

227
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 2: of God. Obviously, the son of God refers to his deity,

228
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 2: but Jesus refers to his humanity. Jesus of Nazareth, or

229
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 2: as they would say in Arabic, Yeshua and Zarath. That's

230
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 2: what they called him, Jesus of Nazareth. They knew that

231
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 2: Jesus of Nazareth was a human being. He was a man,

232
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 2: And Jesus is both God and man, very God of

233
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 2: very God, very man of very man, as much God

234
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 2: as though we were not man at all, as much

235
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 2: man as though we were not God. At all. It

236
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 2: is mind boggling how he can be all God and

237
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 2: all man at the same time. I love what Job says.

238
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 2: You know, Job, who is going through all kinds of difficulty,

239
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 2: didn't understand why he was going through what he was

240
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 2: going through. He didn't have the benefit of knowing that

241
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 2: Satan and God had been talking about him. He just

242
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 2: knew that his life totally fell apart, and he's lost everything.

243
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: He's lost his children, and his heart is broken, and

244
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 2: he's scraping himself with a piece of broken pottery as

245
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 2: he's covered from head to toe in sore boils. And

246
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 2: he says this. He says in Job nine, for God

247
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 2: is not a man as I am, that I may

248
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 2: answer him, that we may go to court together. There

249
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 2: is no umpire between us, who may lay his hand

250
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 2: upon us both. Isn't that an interesting? Job's one of

251
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 2: the oldest books in the Bible. Job is probably a

252
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 2: contemporary of Abraham, and Job said way back when, Oh,

253
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: I wish there was someone who could be an umpire

254
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 2: between sinful man and Holy God, somebody who could understand

255
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 2: man's situation and could understand God's situation, understand man's situation

256
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 2: because he's a man understand God's situation because he's God.

257
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 2: He was calling for the Lord Jesus, who is the

258
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 2: mediator between God and man, the man Christ. Jesus. He

259
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 2: can lay his hand upon God's throne because he is God.

260
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 2: He can lay his hand upon job and sinners because

261
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 2: he was made like us. He's human. He's both, and

262
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 2: he can understand and relate to our weaknesses. We don't

263
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 2: have a high priest, even though he's the son of God.

264
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 2: He's Jesus, the son of God. We don't have a

265
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 2: high priest who can sympathize with our weaknesses. That word

266
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 2: sympathize means to commiserate, to have compassion, to have fellow feelings.

267
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 2: He knows what it's like to be weak. He knows

268
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 2: what it's like to have physical weakness, to have emotional weakness.

269
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 2: We struggle. We have weaknesses physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually. We

270
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 2: have struggles morally, and we're weak. Hey, Jesus experienced hunger.

271
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 2: Jesus experienced thirst. Jesus got tired. Jesus experienced the pain

272
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 2: of being laughed at, being mocked, being spit upon. He

273
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 2: knows what it's like. He can sympathize with our weaknesses,

274
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 2: and everybody in this room. You have weaknesses, I have weaknesses.

275
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 2: We have weaknesses. The strongest among us has feet of clay.

276
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 2: That's why we need to walk very humbly, because nobody's arrived.

277
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 2: We have our weaknesses. He understand he can relate to those.

278
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 2: He has compassion. He feels for you in your weaknesses,

279
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 2: and he knows exactly what it's like to be tempted.

280
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 2: We don't have a high priest who cannot sympathize with

281
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 2: our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in all

282
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:23,920
Speaker 2: things as we are, yet without sin. Every temptation you've

283
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 2: experienced he experienced. Jesus took the full load from the devil,

284
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 2: the very most that he could give the Lord Jesus.

285
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 2: In terms of temptation, You and I cave at six.

286
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 2: Jesus took it all the way to ten, and he resisted,

287
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: even to the point of shedding blood. He knows what

288
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,199
Speaker 2: it's like to be tempted better than you know what

289
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 2: it's like to be tempted, and he's able to come

290
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,879
Speaker 2: to the aid of those who are tempted. We don't

291
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 2: have a high priest who cannot sympathize and commiserate, and

292
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 2: have fellow feelings about your weaknesses, my weaknesses, our weaknesses,

293
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 2: our temptations, our struggles. He knows and he cares. Our

294
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 2: great High Priest has paved the way for us. Our

295
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 2: great High Priest has sympathy for us, and insight number three,

296
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 2: Our great High Priest has made a throne of grace

297
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: for us, a throne of grace for you and for me.

298
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 2: Verse sixteen is such a great verse because we have

299
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,439
Speaker 2: this great High Priest who has made a sacrifice and

300
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 2: sat down at the right hand of the throne of God,

301
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 2: and has gone through the heavens, and he feels for

302
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 2: us and has compassion and sympathy and knows what it's

303
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 2: like to be tempted, says in verse sixteen. Let us

304
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: therefore draw near with confidence to the Throne of Grace,

305
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 2: that we may receive mercy and find grace to help

306
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 2: in time of need. Reme, Remember what my friend Ron said,

307
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 2: My friend Ron, more and moron, he said, I can't

308
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 2: come when I've committed this sin, then I can't come

309
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,400
Speaker 2: to God. I'm just too filthy, I'm too sinful, I'm

310
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 2: too alienated from God. I can't come. I can't pray,

311
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: but Verse sixteen says you can. Says you can draw

312
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 2: near with confidence to the throne of grace to receive

313
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 2: mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

314
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 2: See we can come to God with confidence because of Jesus, confidence,

315
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 2: because of Jesus. We don't come on our merits, your merit,

316
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 2: my merit, the apostle, Paul's merit, the writer of Hebrews merits.

317
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 2: We don't come based on how good we are, because

318
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 2: we're not. Our righteous deeds are as a filthy rag

319
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 2: before God, all of sin and fall short of the

320
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 2: glory of God. We come based on what Jesus did

321
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,239
Speaker 2: on his merits. See Ephesians one six says that we

322
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 2: are accepted in the Beloved, and the beloved is Jesus.

323
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 2: And when we accept Jesus, he accepts Us, and then

324
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 2: we're accepted in him. Ephesians four thirty two says that

325
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 2: be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just

326
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 2: as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you. Why did

327
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 2: God forgive me for Christ's sake? Because he accepted what

328
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 2: Jesus did on the cross. He put an exclamation point

329
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 2: on it. When he raised him from the dead. That

330
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 2: paid That was the propitiation for our sins. That was

331
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 2: the satisfaction, the forgiveness for our sins. What Jesus did

332
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,120
Speaker 2: on the cross and through his empty tomb, and anybody

333
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 2: who comes to Jesus in repentance and faith, they're placed

334
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 2: into Jesus. And when God sees you, he doesn't see you.

335
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 2: He sees his own son. And if you're struggling with sin,

336
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 2: as we all struggle with sin, can boldly with confidence

337
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 2: to the Throne of Grace, knowing that the Lord will

338
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 2: receive you, because in Jesus you're accepted in the blood. See,

339
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 2: we have confidence in the fact that we're going to

340
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,199
Speaker 2: be accepted. Jesus said, the one who comes to me

341
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 2: will by no means be cast out. I won't throw

342
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 2: you out if you come to me. Come to me

343
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 2: all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will

344
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 2: give you rest, he says. So if you're weary and

345
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 2: heavy laden and beaten down and broken down, you can

346
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 2: come to the Lord. The prostitute in Luke seven could

347
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 2: come to the Lord and weep at his feet, and

348
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 2: he says, your sins have been forgiven, your faith has saved.

349
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 2: You go in peace now. Simon the Pharisee, this is

350
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 2: a story in Luke seven. He sees that, and he says,

351
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 2: if this man were a prophet, he would know what

352
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 2: kind of woman is touching him. He wouldn't let her

353
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 2: touch him. She is an immoral woman. She's a prostitute.

354
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 2: You don't as a problem. You don't let the woman

355
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 2: like that touch you. She was coming with a broken heart.

356
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 2: She was coming repentantly to Lord. And what does he

357
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 2: have for repentant sinners? Grace. We can come to God

358
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 2: with confidence because of Jesus, and we can come to

359
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 2: God and receive mercy and more grace. Let us draw

360
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 2: in there with confidence to the throne of grace, that

361
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 2: we may receive mercy. Oh, I need mercy, especially when

362
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 2: I fail, And we may receive mercy and find grace

363
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 2: to help in our time of need. David in Psalm

364
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 2: fifty one, after he sinned with Bathsheba, after he had

365
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 2: her husband Uriah, the Kittite killed such terrible, horrible sins,

366
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 2: And he comes before the Lord. Be gracious to me, O, God,

367
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,159
Speaker 2: according to your loving kindness, according to the greatness of

368
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 2: your compassion, blot out my transgressions. Be gracious, gracious, be

369
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 2: merciful to me. Oh God, he needed God's mercy. He

370
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 2: needed God's grace. You need it, I need it. We

371
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 2: need it God's mercy and grace. And God sits on

372
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 2: a throne of grace. And the Bible says of Jesus

373
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 2: of his fullness, we have all received and grace upon grace,

374
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 2: grace upon grace. God is the God of all grace.

375
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 2: He has an inexhaustible supply of grace. Now we say

376
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 2: grace is the unmerited favor of God. You don't earn it,

377
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 2: you don't deserve it, but He gives it to you anyway.

378
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 2: Grace is God's riches at Christ's expense. Grace is the

379
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 2: desire one definition too. It's the desire and the power

380
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 2: to live for the Lord. Remember what we said, grace

381
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 2: is big. It's like grabbing onto orca. You can't do it.

382
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 2: It's just so massive. But it's the desire and the

383
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 2: power one definition to live for the Lord. And so

384
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 2: when we blow it, we come before the Lord, and

385
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 2: we come before his throne of grace. He doesn't sit

386
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 2: on a throne of judgment for his children. He doesn't

387
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 2: sit on a throne of condemnation for his children. He

388
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 2: doesn't sit on a throne of desc disgust for his children.

389
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:07,120
Speaker 2: He doesn't sit on a throne of termination for his children.

390
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 2: That's it. You're done, Get out of here. I've forgiven

391
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 2: you for that sin. Now, this is the five hundredth time.

392
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,400
Speaker 2: That's it, seventy times seven, four hundred and ninety year done.

393
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 2: That's all. No, this is the throne of grace, and

394
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 2: he's the God of all grace, and grace is an

395
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 2: inexhaustible supply. That's the throne that the Lord sits on

396
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,679
Speaker 2: for his children. And we can draw near with confidence

397
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 2: to that throne. Beyond amazing that I could come into

398
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 2: the presence of God. The high priests only come in

399
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 2: there one time of year. He came with fear, in trepidation,

400
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 2: and he didn't stay long. And now there's no more veil.

401
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 2: And the Lord says, come and come early, and come often,

402
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 2: and come as long, and stay as long as you

403
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 2: want in my presence and marinate and my presence. I'm

404
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 2: a God who loves you. I understand what you're going through.

405
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 2: I care about you. I have mercy and grace to

406
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 2: help you in your time of need. So let me

407
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 2: ask you this question. Are you coming regularly to the

408
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 2: Throne of Grace now? If not, why not have you

409
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 2: ever received God's amazing grace? Have you ever had all

410
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 2: your sins forgiven in your name written in the Lamb's

411
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 2: Book of Life? If not, today is the day for you.

412
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 2: Just pray this simple prayer. Lord, Jesus, I need you.

413
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 2: I know that I'm a sinner and I'm lost and

414
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 2: I can't save myself. Jesus, I believe that you are

415
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 2: God in the flesh. I believe you died on the

416
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 2: cross from my sins and rose again from the dead.

417
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 2: And right now, Jesus, I surrender my life to you.

418
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 2: Come into my heart, forgive me of all my sins,

419
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,199
Speaker 2: make me the person you want me to be, and

420
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 2: I make the commitment to follow you all the days

421
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 2: of my life. My friend, if you'll pray that kind

422
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 2: of prayer and mean it, the Lord will come in

423
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 2: and your life will never be the same. I'd love

424
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 2: to hear from you, so take the time to contact

425
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,360
Speaker 2: me and we'll pray for you.

00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 2: like me. Those words were written by John Newton, a

434
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 2: former slave ship captain who experienced the unmerited love, forgiveness

435
00:27:55,680 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 2: and favor of God through Jesus Christ. Newton was saved

436

Speaker 2: and he never got over it until the day he died.
