[1163.46 --> 1164.64] What is it speaking to? |
[1164.90 --> 1166.38] It's speaking to pride. |
[1167.38 --> 1167.54] Right? |
[1167.66 --> 1168.40] Same message. |
[1168.92 --> 1170.38] God opposes the proud. |
[1170.76 --> 1171.56] Not just scholars, |
[1171.70 --> 1172.64] not just smart people. |
[1172.86 --> 1173.90] That's not the heart of it. |
[1173.90 --> 1175.46] He opposes the proud. |
[1175.80 --> 1176.36] Those who think |
[1176.36 --> 1177.86] they have it all figured out. |
[1178.26 --> 1179.10] Those who think |
[1179.10 --> 1180.30] that they don't need God. |
[1180.44 --> 1181.40] Or those who think |
[1181.40 --> 1181.96] they're privileged |
[1181.96 --> 1183.20] because they work for God. |
[1183.60 --> 1185.26] They have a holy job or something. |
[1186.16 --> 1186.38] No. |
[1186.92 --> 1188.66] God calls and invites |
[1188.66 --> 1190.46] the humble and the lowly. |
[1193.38 --> 1194.92] So no one can boast |
[1194.92 --> 1196.62] and our whole lives belong to Him. |
[1196.84 --> 1197.92] And then you have to ask |
[1197.92 --> 1198.80] the follow-up question. |
[1199.16 --> 1200.42] Because Paul doesn't end there. |
[1201.34 --> 1202.54] Paul doesn't stop his letter |
[1202.54 --> 1202.92] saying, |
[1202.92 --> 1203.74] not by works |
[1203.74 --> 1204.54] so that no one can boast. |
[1204.62 --> 1204.78] Alright. |
[1205.38 --> 1205.78] The end. |
[1206.06 --> 1206.28] Go. |
[1206.56 --> 1206.80] Live. |
[1208.34 --> 1209.12] You have to ask |
[1209.12 --> 1209.90] the follow-up question. |
[1210.06 --> 1211.06] For what purpose? |
[1211.80 --> 1212.90] What is the purpose |
[1212.90 --> 1214.30] of God saving us |
[1214.30 --> 1215.14] and calling us |
[1215.14 --> 1216.02] by His grace? |
[1217.02 --> 1217.58] Verse 10. |
[1217.74 --> 1218.38] He goes on. |
[1219.32 --> 1219.66] For |
[1219.66 --> 1221.82] we are God's handiwork |
[1221.82 --> 1223.74] created in Christ Jesus. |
[1224.66 --> 1225.64] For what purpose? |
[1225.84 --> 1227.58] To do good works |
[1227.58 --> 1229.18] which He prepared |
[1229.18 --> 1230.70] in advance for us to do. |
[1231.80 --> 1233.22] And then the yoke imagery, |
[1233.36 --> 1234.30] what Jesus is teaching us |
[1234.30 --> 1235.60] from our passage today |
[1235.60 --> 1238.18] is preparing us |
[1238.18 --> 1239.58] and equipping us |
[1239.58 --> 1240.34] for the good works |
[1240.34 --> 1241.04] He has prepared |
[1241.04 --> 1241.52] in advance |
[1241.52 --> 1242.44] for us to do. |
[1243.92 --> 1245.08] That's our last question. |
[1245.34 --> 1246.28] That's kind of the title |
[1246.28 --> 1246.74] of the sermon, |
[1246.84 --> 1247.18] isn't it? |
[1247.92 --> 1249.44] The yoke of Jesus. |
[1249.56 --> 1250.86] Putting on the yoke of Jesus. |
[1251.08 --> 1252.80] How exactly is it easy |
[1252.80 --> 1253.90] and is burdened light? |
[1253.90 --> 1254.54] How? |
[1256.96 --> 1258.28] Because our calling |
[1258.28 --> 1259.08] as disciples |
[1259.08 --> 1260.46] is to take on |
[1260.46 --> 1261.94] His yoke. |
[1262.38 --> 1263.08] That's the point. |
[1264.98 --> 1265.98] We are called |
[1265.98 --> 1267.36] to take on His yoke, |
[1267.54 --> 1268.46] not our own. |
[1269.62 --> 1270.16] Not |
[1270.16 --> 1271.92] trying to come up |
[1271.92 --> 1272.42] with the answers |
[1272.42 --> 1273.70] for every little thing |
[1273.70 --> 1274.36] in our lives. |
[1274.80 --> 1276.46] Jesus is not offering us |
[1276.46 --> 1276.92] some sort of |
[1276.92 --> 1277.98] self-help method |
[1277.98 --> 1279.18] to somehow make |
[1279.18 --> 1280.18] our own yokes |
[1280.18 --> 1281.16] easier and lighter. |
[1281.98 --> 1282.54] That's not what |
[1282.54 --> 1283.16] He's getting at. |
[1283.16 --> 1284.76] Jesus invites us |
[1284.76 --> 1285.24] to Him |
[1285.24 --> 1286.54] to take on |
[1286.54 --> 1287.52] His yoke. |
[1288.98 --> 1290.62] Because in Christ |
[1290.62 --> 1292.26] His yoke |
[1292.26 --> 1293.76] is to do good works. |
[1294.60 --> 1295.78] And God equips us |
[1295.78 --> 1296.80] for that good work. |
[1301.00 --> 1302.06] And that's kind of |
[1302.06 --> 1302.60] my answer |
[1302.60 --> 1304.14] for why Jesus uses |
