[3890.36 --> 3891.54] or because of an intellectual |
[3891.54 --> 3892.56] opposition for belief. |
[3892.72 --> 3894.06] That may be the words we use. |
[3894.14 --> 3894.66] That may be the way |
[3894.66 --> 3895.72] we characterize it. |
[3895.82 --> 3896.88] But the truth is, |
[3897.00 --> 3898.46] if you are willing |
[3898.46 --> 3899.42] and you are ready |
[3899.42 --> 3900.50] to dig into |
[3900.50 --> 3901.76] all of this |
[3901.76 --> 3903.82] history and philosophy, |
[3903.98 --> 3904.66] there are countless |
[3904.66 --> 3906.06] philosophers and theologians |
[3906.06 --> 3906.64] and historians |
[3906.64 --> 3907.36] throughout history |
[3907.36 --> 3908.72] who are smarter than me, |
[3909.00 --> 3910.14] probably smarter than you, |
[3910.42 --> 3911.04] who have made |
[3911.04 --> 3912.18] cogent and compelling |
[3912.18 --> 3912.92] arguments |
[3912.92 --> 3914.28] and intellectual cases |
[3914.28 --> 3914.90] for Jesus |
[3914.90 --> 3915.78] and for God |
[3915.78 --> 3916.54] and for the truth |
[3916.54 --> 3917.42] of the Gospels |
[3917.42 --> 3918.24] and the reliability |
[3918.24 --> 3919.34] of the Bible. |
[3919.58 --> 3920.52] The real problem, |
[3920.62 --> 3920.84] you see, |
[3920.92 --> 3921.90] isn't intellectual. |
[3922.18 --> 3922.98] The real problem |
[3922.98 --> 3924.08] is existential |
[3924.08 --> 3925.20] and spiritual. |
[3925.36 --> 3926.14] The real problem |
[3926.14 --> 3926.76] for some of us |
[3926.76 --> 3927.56] is that people |
[3927.56 --> 3929.28] have disappointed us. |
[3930.40 --> 3931.64] And so it's made belief |
[3931.64 --> 3932.80] in this resurrection |
[3932.80 --> 3935.22] if not impossible |
[3935.22 --> 3936.30] then hard. |
[3938.38 --> 3938.82] Because you see, |
[3938.90 --> 3940.82] Jesus changed everything |
[3940.82 --> 3942.28] and now everything |
[3942.28 --> 3944.18] about you changes. |
[3944.86 --> 3945.78] And for some of us, |
[3945.96 --> 3947.46] that's the scary part. |
[3947.64 --> 3949.04] That's the terrifying thing. |
[3949.26 --> 3949.42] Right? |
[3949.50 --> 3950.66] If in his life |
[3950.66 --> 3951.10] and death |
[3951.10 --> 3951.74] and resurrection, |
[3951.98 --> 3953.18] Jesus did everything |
[3953.18 --> 3953.84] for you |
[3953.84 --> 3954.80] and there's nothing |
[3954.80 --> 3956.14] that you need to do |
[3956.14 --> 3957.22] to add to it, |
[3957.22 --> 3957.54] there's nothing |
[3957.54 --> 3958.44] that you can do |
[3958.44 --> 3959.44] to add to it |
[3959.44 --> 3960.20] or to earn it |
[3960.20 --> 3960.90] if it is all |
[3960.90 --> 3962.06] by grace through faith |
[3962.06 --> 3963.24] and is not of yourselves, |
[3963.34 --> 3964.46] it is the gift of God |
[3964.46 --> 3965.12] so that no man |
[3965.12 --> 3965.92] or woman or child |
[3965.92 --> 3966.42] can boast. |
[3966.62 --> 3967.94] If all of that is true |
[3967.94 --> 3969.18] and I believe it is, |
[3969.42 --> 3970.12] that means |
[3970.12 --> 3971.38] that as a result |
[3971.38 --> 3971.72] of that, |
[3971.82 --> 3972.58] there is nothing |
[3972.58 --> 3973.90] in this life |
[3973.90 --> 3974.56] that Jesus |
[3974.56 --> 3975.62] can't ask |
[3975.62 --> 3976.46] of you |
[3976.46 --> 3978.08] once he's given you |
[3978.08 --> 3978.80] that grace and gift. |
[3980.08 --> 3981.34] And for some of us, |
[3981.92 --> 3983.00] that's too much. |
[3983.00 --> 3985.30] that's too scary |
[3985.30 --> 3986.72] because we like |
[3986.72 --> 3988.00] our little lives |
[3988.00 --> 3989.04] on our own, |
[3989.16 --> 3990.40] in our own control. |
[3990.82 --> 3992.18] We've become complacent |
[3992.18 --> 3993.86] in these bodies of death |
[3993.86 --> 3994.70] so much so |
[3994.70 --> 3995.74] that the possibility |
[3995.74 --> 3996.92] of real life, |
[3997.06 --> 3997.98] of knowing the creator |
[3997.98 --> 3998.52] of the world |
[3998.52 --> 3999.22] and being known |
[3999.22 --> 4000.00] by the creator |
[4000.00 --> 4000.58] of the world |
[4000.58 --> 4002.12] is a scary thing. |
[4003.60 --> 4004.80] True life |
[4004.80 --> 4005.98] is scary |
