[3716.38 --> 3717.82] picks up for us |
[3717.82 --> 3718.60] is the same |
[3718.60 --> 3720.48] as what Jeremiah |
[3720.48 --> 3721.58] writes |
[3721.58 --> 3723.36] all those years before |
[3723.36 --> 3724.42] to the exiles |
[3724.42 --> 3725.44] in Babylon. |
[3727.10 --> 3728.14] If you've been around |
[3728.14 --> 3729.04] since we started |
[3729.04 --> 3730.32] this series a few weeks ago, |
[3730.54 --> 3731.46] you will recall |
[3731.46 --> 3732.66] that we reminded you |
[3732.66 --> 3734.72] of that exile |
[3734.72 --> 3736.02] and the stories |
[3736.02 --> 3736.64] of Daniel, |
[3736.88 --> 3737.54] of Shadrach, |
[3737.64 --> 3738.14] of Meshach, |
[3738.22 --> 3738.66] and Abednego, |
[3738.82 --> 3739.74] the story of Esther. |
[3740.70 --> 3740.84] Right? |
[3740.92 --> 3741.56] They are all |
[3741.56 --> 3743.06] among the youngest |
[3743.06 --> 3743.66] Israelites |
[3743.66 --> 3744.88] who were carried off |
[3744.88 --> 3745.84] and then in many places |
[3745.84 --> 3746.82] brought into service |
[3746.82 --> 3747.36] in the courts |
[3747.36 --> 3747.84] of the king. |
[3748.68 --> 3748.82] Now, |
[3748.82 --> 3750.02] Jeremiah is a prophet |
[3750.02 --> 3751.34] who is back in Jerusalem. |
[3751.84 --> 3753.34] He warned of the coming exile |
[3753.34 --> 3754.58] and he explained |
[3754.58 --> 3755.62] why it was happening, |
[3755.80 --> 3756.30] but also, |
[3756.44 --> 3757.04] what Jeremiah did |
[3757.04 --> 3758.42] was he wrote a letter |
[3758.42 --> 3759.72] to the exiles |
[3759.72 --> 3761.18] in Babylon. |
[3762.32 --> 3763.18] We have that recorded |
[3763.18 --> 3764.58] for us in Jeremiah 29. |
[3765.06 --> 3766.26] This is God's word |
[3766.26 --> 3767.52] to those who live |
[3767.52 --> 3768.66] in the sort of circumstances |
[3768.66 --> 3770.24] that Peter is talking about |
[3770.24 --> 3771.74] that we live in. |
[3772.60 --> 3773.28] Jeremiah says, |
[3773.52 --> 3776.84] this is what the Lord Almighty, |
[3777.02 --> 3777.96] the God of Israel, |
[3778.16 --> 3779.50] says to all those |
[3779.50 --> 3781.06] who I carried into exile |
[3781.06 --> 3781.84] from Jerusalem |
[3781.84 --> 3783.04] to Babylon. |
[3783.04 --> 3785.10] Build houses |
[3785.10 --> 3786.18] and settle down. |
[3786.84 --> 3787.60] Plant gardens |
[3787.60 --> 3788.82] and eat what they produce. |
[3789.10 --> 3790.20] Marry and have sons |
[3790.20 --> 3790.74] and daughters. |
[3790.92 --> 3792.18] Find wives for your sons |
[3792.18 --> 3793.48] and give your daughters |
[3793.48 --> 3794.02] in marriage |
[3794.02 --> 3794.82] so that they too |
[3794.82 --> 3795.56] may have sons |
[3795.56 --> 3796.08] and daughters. |
[3796.62 --> 3798.14] Increase in number there. |
[3798.30 --> 3799.46] Do not decrease. |
[3800.24 --> 3800.88] Also, |
[3801.38 --> 3802.30] seek the peace |
[3802.30 --> 3803.10] and prosperity |
[3803.10 --> 3804.06] of the city |
[3804.06 --> 3805.70] to which I have carried you |
[3805.70 --> 3806.58] into exile. |
[3807.08 --> 3808.54] Pray to the Lord for it |
[3808.54 --> 3810.96] because if it prospers, |
[3811.14 --> 3811.86] you too |
[3811.86 --> 3813.28] will prosper. |
[3815.32 --> 3815.96] So as |
[3815.96 --> 3818.68] beloved foreigners |
[3818.68 --> 3819.78] and exiles, |
[3820.52 --> 3820.96] live |
[3820.96 --> 3821.98] and work, |
[3822.50 --> 3822.96] produce, |
[3823.12 --> 3824.38] produce families, |
[3824.60 --> 3825.84] set down roots, |
[3826.02 --> 3826.84] find joy |
[3826.84 --> 3827.62] and fulfillment |
[3827.62 --> 3828.84] in your labors. |
[3829.00 --> 3830.18] Work for the well-being |
[3830.18 --> 3831.40] of the city |
[3831.40 --> 3832.38] for its peace |
[3832.38 --> 3834.10] and its prosperity. |
[3834.72 --> 3835.74] That's what among |
[3835.74 --> 3837.78] means for Peter. |
[3838.78 --> 3840.22] Live such good lives |
[3840.22 --> 3841.90] among the pagans |
[3841.90 --> 3844.14] that though they accuse you |
[3844.14 --> 3845.10] of doing wrong, |
[3846.86 --> 3847.16] you see, |
[3847.24 --> 3847.80] this is |
