[2080.82 --> 2081.72] I hope this is helpful, |
[2082.42 --> 2084.22] is when the sickness of sin |
[2084.22 --> 2085.72] covered over God's good world |
[2085.72 --> 2087.78] and crept in the hearts |
[2087.78 --> 2088.78] of God's humanity, |
[2088.96 --> 2090.36] God chose Israel |
[2090.36 --> 2091.74] as a healing nation |
[2091.74 --> 2093.10] to sort of bring healing |
[2093.10 --> 2094.36] to where the sickness was. |
[2094.76 --> 2095.72] But what we realize |
[2095.72 --> 2096.92] at the end of the Old Testament |
[2096.92 --> 2098.70] is that Israel is just |
[2098.70 --> 2100.10] as infected by the sickness |
[2100.10 --> 2100.60] of sin |
[2100.60 --> 2102.16] as all the other nations. |
[2102.66 --> 2103.74] And now we're stuck |
[2103.74 --> 2104.68] with this thing |
[2104.68 --> 2105.32] that is the mess |
[2105.32 --> 2105.88] in the nations |
[2105.88 --> 2107.46] and in God's special people, |
[2108.02 --> 2108.26] Israel. |
[2109.88 --> 2111.16] With all this background |
[2111.16 --> 2111.78] in mind, |
[2112.06 --> 2113.16] this Old Testament story, |
[2113.28 --> 2115.20] I now want to read for us |
[2115.20 --> 2117.58] Galatians 3, 13, and 14. |
[2117.58 --> 2118.46] And I hope it's going to |
[2118.46 --> 2119.34] just piece some things |
[2119.34 --> 2120.28] together for us. |
[2120.82 --> 2121.28] We read, |
[2122.48 --> 2123.38] Christ redeemed us |
[2123.38 --> 2124.82] from the curse of the law |
[2124.82 --> 2127.42] by becoming a curse for us. |
[2128.02 --> 2128.84] For it is written, |
[2129.12 --> 2129.82] cursed is everyone |
[2129.82 --> 2130.84] who is hung on a pole. |
[2131.78 --> 2132.58] He redeemed us |
[2132.58 --> 2134.06] in order that the blessing |
[2134.06 --> 2135.38] given to Abraham |
[2135.38 --> 2137.50] might come to the Gentiles |
[2137.50 --> 2138.40] through Christ Jesus |
[2138.40 --> 2140.20] so that by faith |
[2140.20 --> 2141.60] we might receive |
[2141.60 --> 2143.52] the promise of the Spirit. |
[2144.10 --> 2144.84] It's making a little bit |
[2144.84 --> 2145.46] more sense now. |
[2146.90 --> 2148.08] Let me walk us through |
[2148.08 --> 2148.70] some of the movement. |
[2148.82 --> 2149.22] Number one, |
[2149.30 --> 2149.98] let me underscore |
[2149.98 --> 2151.32] Paul's main concern |
[2151.32 --> 2152.70] is to recognize |
[2152.70 --> 2153.36] that the law |
[2153.36 --> 2154.14] of the Old Testament |
[2154.14 --> 2155.64] could not solve |
[2155.64 --> 2156.68] the problem of sin. |
[2156.96 --> 2157.84] It could not curb |
[2157.84 --> 2158.52] human hearts |
[2158.52 --> 2159.92] and people even knowing |
[2159.92 --> 2160.62] what was good |
[2160.62 --> 2161.32] and knowing the good |
[2161.32 --> 2161.98] instruction of God |
[2161.98 --> 2163.34] chose the way of curse. |
[2163.94 --> 2164.92] So the movement now |
[2164.92 --> 2165.82] of Galatians 3 is |
[2165.82 --> 2167.06] the whole world |
[2167.06 --> 2167.98] lives in rebellion |
[2167.98 --> 2168.92] under the curse. |
[2169.62 --> 2171.20] God's representative people |
[2171.20 --> 2172.08] who were chosen |
[2172.08 --> 2172.80] for blessing |
[2172.80 --> 2174.54] also chose the way |
[2174.54 --> 2175.12] of the curse |
[2175.12 --> 2176.02] and now |
[2176.02 --> 2177.52] here's the good news. |
[2178.34 --> 2179.48] There is a representative |
[2179.48 --> 2180.68] within Israel |
[2180.68 --> 2181.96] who's going to take on |
[2181.96 --> 2182.48] the curse |
[2182.48 --> 2183.88] and that is Jesus. |
[2184.66 --> 2185.18] For Paul, |
[2185.26 --> 2185.88] the good news is |
[2185.88 --> 2187.28] yes, the curse is spread. |
[2187.48 --> 2188.60] Yes, it's infected Israel |
[2188.60 --> 2189.84] but good news church, |
[2190.46 --> 2191.52] there is a representative |
[2191.52 --> 2192.24] within Israel |
[2192.24 --> 2193.28] who is going to become |
[2193.28 --> 2194.32] that curse, |
[2194.84 --> 2195.56] Jesus Christ. |
[2196.24 --> 2197.16] He takes on |
[2197.16 --> 2197.82] the punishment |
[2197.82 --> 2198.78] for disobedience. |
[2198.86 --> 2199.40] He takes on |
[2199.40 --> 2200.32] the consequence |
[2200.32 --> 2201.06] for sin. |
[2201.06 --> 2202.94] He takes on |
[2202.94 --> 2203.66] the consequence |
[2203.66 --> 2204.34] of rebellion |
[2204.34 --> 2206.04] or as we read |
