[1270.96 --> 1272.24] his real disciples. |
[1273.16 --> 1273.74] Verse 23, |
[1273.80 --> 1274.44] our last verse, |
[1274.74 --> 1275.30] it says, |
[1276.14 --> 1277.48] if you are not |
[1277.48 --> 1278.20] for me, |
[1279.20 --> 1280.86] you are against me. |
[1282.04 --> 1283.14] There is no |
[1283.14 --> 1284.62] neutral middle ground here. |
[1284.72 --> 1285.28] Notice that. |
[1286.60 --> 1288.06] He does not offer |
[1288.06 --> 1289.26] us to just sit |
[1289.26 --> 1289.80] on the fringes |
[1289.80 --> 1290.48] and call ourselves |
[1290.48 --> 1290.92] Christians. |
[1291.32 --> 1291.90] He says, |
[1292.24 --> 1292.86] if you are not |
[1292.86 --> 1293.42] for me, |
[1293.52 --> 1294.52] you are actually |
[1294.52 --> 1295.62] against me. |
[1296.10 --> 1297.28] This is the crowd |
[1297.28 --> 1299.14] versus being a disciple, |
[1299.52 --> 1300.70] an actual follower |
[1300.70 --> 1301.24] of Christ. |
[1301.50 --> 1302.20] He's asking, |
[1302.34 --> 1302.86] are you willing |
[1302.86 --> 1303.80] to be with me, |
[1303.90 --> 1304.86] to be like me, |
[1304.90 --> 1305.84] and do the things |
[1305.84 --> 1306.46] that I did |
[1306.46 --> 1309.72] to be my disciple, |
[1310.76 --> 1311.72] real disciples? |
[1312.24 --> 1312.76] Or, |
[1312.96 --> 1314.24] are you just okay |
[1314.24 --> 1315.54] with being part |
[1315.54 --> 1316.14] of the crowd, |
[1316.94 --> 1318.02] continuing to doubt, |
[1318.92 --> 1319.54] and continuing |
[1319.54 --> 1320.14] to test |
[1320.14 --> 1321.12] if this Jesus guy |
[1321.12 --> 1322.20] is for real or not? |
[1322.20 --> 1325.52] And so for us, |
[1325.72 --> 1326.52] this serves |
[1326.52 --> 1327.30] as a reminder |
[1327.30 --> 1328.22] of our calling, |
[1328.32 --> 1329.30] just like the baptism |
[1329.30 --> 1329.66] did. |
[1330.36 --> 1330.84] Or, |
[1330.98 --> 1331.70] for some of us |
[1331.70 --> 1332.72] who are new |
[1332.72 --> 1333.62] to this Christian faith, |
[1333.74 --> 1334.80] this is an invitation. |
[1336.10 --> 1336.96] An invitation |
[1336.96 --> 1337.50] to what? |
[1338.26 --> 1340.12] To fully trust |
[1340.12 --> 1341.06] and follow |
[1341.06 --> 1341.66] in Jesus |
[1341.66 --> 1342.44] who is Lord |
[1342.44 --> 1343.06] over all. |
[1345.88 --> 1346.88] Our hope |
[1346.88 --> 1347.68] and foundation |
[1347.68 --> 1348.84] is in the gospel |
[1348.84 --> 1349.96] truth that everything |
[1349.96 --> 1351.50] is in His hands |
[1351.50 --> 1352.88] and that He |
[1352.88 --> 1353.56] is sovereign |
[1353.56 --> 1354.18] over all. |
[1354.26 --> 1354.78] Just like the |
[1354.78 --> 1355.72] Colossians passage, |
[1356.10 --> 1357.74] everything is in His hands |
[1357.74 --> 1360.20] and we can trust |
[1360.20 --> 1361.26] in that good news. |
[1364.18 --> 1365.34] And the same |
[1365.34 --> 1366.62] resurrection power, |
[1367.58 --> 1368.82] this same power |
[1368.82 --> 1370.26] is now gifted |
[1370.26 --> 1371.52] to His people, |
[1371.66 --> 1372.16] the church. |
[1373.16 --> 1374.02] And I want to say |
[1374.02 --> 1374.72] this as boldly |
[1374.72 --> 1375.24] as I can |
[1375.24 --> 1375.88] because Jesus |
[1375.88 --> 1376.82] says it boldly. |
[1377.50 --> 1378.12] He says, |
[1379.20 --> 1379.90] and He expresses |
[1379.90 --> 1381.24] that as we receive |
[1381.24 --> 1381.74] the power |
[1381.74 --> 1382.60] from the Holy Spirit, |
[1382.70 --> 1383.60] the same power |
[1383.60 --> 1385.96] that is more than able |
[1385.96 --> 1387.20] to defeat the enemy, |
[1387.46 --> 1388.20] this same power |
[1388.20 --> 1389.38] is now gifted to us. |
[1389.68 --> 1390.20] And now, |
[1390.40 --> 1391.30] as His people, |
[1391.60 --> 1392.40] there are nothing, |
[1392.52 --> 1393.38] there is nothing, |
[1393.58 --> 1394.74] there are no obstacles |
[1394.74 --> 1395.46] that can get |
[1395.46 --> 1396.18] in our way |
