[654.86 --> 654.90] Lord. |
[655.38 --> 657.06] The 72 returned with joy and said, |
[657.14 --> 659.62] Lord, even demons submit to us in your name. |
[659.92 --> 660.82] And he replied, |
[661.18 --> 663.20] I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. |
[664.42 --> 664.64] Right? |
[664.68 --> 665.50] And you think, okay. |
[665.88 --> 668.24] You know, even the demons listen to us. |
[668.30 --> 668.86] I saw Satan fall. |
[668.96 --> 670.34] You know, so what's going on here, right? |
[670.58 --> 671.64] I have given you authority |
[671.64 --> 673.24] to trample on snakes and scorpions |
[673.24 --> 675.52] and overcome all the power of the enemy. |
[675.52 --> 677.20] Nothing will harm you. |
[678.08 --> 680.32] And when the 72 returned, |
[680.72 --> 682.98] they're excitedly reported that even the demons |
[682.98 --> 685.90] were subject to them in Jesus' name. |
[685.90 --> 688.64] And Jesus says, |
[689.06 --> 691.20] I saw Satan fall from heaven. |
[691.20 --> 693.08] And then he says, |
[693.14 --> 693.96] I've given you authority |
[693.96 --> 695.90] to tread on snakes and scorpions |
[695.90 --> 699.16] if indeed they are in your way. |
[700.20 --> 701.38] Some of you might have heard of |
[701.38 --> 703.78] groups of Christian people |
[703.78 --> 705.54] who historically have kind of, |
[705.76 --> 707.26] they were called snake handlers |
[707.26 --> 707.80] and they would go, |
[708.36 --> 709.74] have part of their church services, |
[709.84 --> 711.24] they'd hold on to snakes on purpose |
[711.24 --> 712.64] and get bit and poisoned |
[712.64 --> 714.94] and just as a test of faith. |
[715.20 --> 717.22] That's not what Jesus is talking about. |
[718.02 --> 718.84] Jesus isn't saying, |
[719.06 --> 720.40] well, there's a scorpion. |
[720.54 --> 721.02] Bite me. |
[721.22 --> 723.76] You know, that's not what's going on here. |
[723.86 --> 724.40] Jesus is saying, |
[724.48 --> 725.84] listen, stuff will happen on the way |
[725.84 --> 727.28] and I'm with you in it all. |
[727.98 --> 729.24] That's what's going on here. |
[731.30 --> 732.30] Jesus says, |
[732.40 --> 733.90] even in the face of violence, |
[735.06 --> 736.12] in the face of injustice, |
[736.68 --> 738.60] evil cannot destroy the one |
[738.60 --> 740.12] who goes in Jesus' name. |
[741.06 --> 742.42] Now, you might ask, |
[742.42 --> 743.60] well, does this mean then |
[743.60 --> 744.88] that, you know, |
[744.96 --> 746.06] we won't suffer? |
[747.28 --> 747.68] No. |
[748.66 --> 749.90] That's not what it's saying here. |
[750.16 --> 752.72] It means that God's will will prevail. |
[753.24 --> 754.32] I mean, if you look at the life |
[754.32 --> 755.60] of many of the twelve, |
[756.22 --> 757.10] right, they were martyred. |
[758.22 --> 758.84] Well, they could have said, |
[758.88 --> 760.50] well, you said we weren't going to get harmed. |
[760.66 --> 762.02] That's not what's going on here. |
[762.54 --> 764.20] God's will will prevail. |
[765.22 --> 766.64] You will overcome. |
[768.06 --> 769.98] Matthew 16, 8 says it rather well |
[769.98 --> 771.24] where Jesus said, |
[771.24 --> 772.52] I tell you that you are Peter |
[772.52 --> 773.82] and on this rock, |
[773.92 --> 775.08] I will build my church |
[775.08 --> 775.70] and what will happen? |
[775.70 --> 777.34] And the gates of Hades |
[777.34 --> 778.52] will not overcome it. |
[780.12 --> 780.70] Right? |
[781.36 --> 783.00] The gates of hell |
[783.00 --> 784.70] will not prevail. |
[784.70 --> 788.04] that mean I might get hurt sometimes? |
[788.16 --> 789.40] Yeah, probably. |
[792.24 --> 793.44] But Jesus will prevail. |
[794.10 --> 795.40] Jesus is our power. |
[796.24 --> 796.74] Now, there's, |
[796.90 --> 798.10] but here in our passage, |
[798.22 --> 799.40] there's potential danger |
[799.40 --> 800.36] when they say, |
[800.60 --> 802.52] even the demons are subject to us, |
[802.76 --> 804.14] even though they said it was in Jesus' name. |
[804.36 --> 807.48] They say this as if this was the epitome of power. |
[807.48 --> 810.12] And you can see why. |
[812.22 --> 812.52] I mean, |
[812.62 --> 813.94] if you cast out a demon, |
[814.04 --> 817.08] that's got to be invigorating |
[817.08 --> 818.78] in some way. |
[820.06 --> 820.18] You know, |
[820.28 --> 820.30] but, |
[820.52 --> 822.30] and look what happened in the past. |
[822.50 --> 823.20] Luke 9, |
[823.70 --> 823.94] right? |
[824.02 --> 824.70] There's another time |
[824.70 --> 826.02] when the 12 were there. |
[826.40 --> 827.56] And a man in the crowd called out, |
[827.60 --> 827.82] Teacher, |
[828.12 --> 828.80] I beg you, |
[828.86 --> 829.60] look at my son |
[829.60 --> 830.58] for he's my only child. |
