! Insanity - Orion Project
Ever heard of it?
During all of my years working in the Aerospace field.
I had not heard about it until Jacob was watching a video from the History channel one evening.
There is a reason that you might not have heard of it!
Insane, but creative.
Describe the project...
They actually built a working model, not with nuclear explosives but with C4.
!! E. There were Problems
1. Nuclear fallout~/cloud
2. Heat on the bottom
3. Quick acceleration
!! F. But to me that was not the least of their problems.
1.
For me, I wanted to know where they were going to find a crew…
2. Sitting on several nuclear bombs that would be set off, on purpose.
3. Would you volunteer to get aboard Orion?
4.
Would you want to make that Journey?
5.
The problem is not the concept, talking about it in the drafting room.
To me, the problems is actually getting there, getting on-board and strapping yourself in.
!! G.
That is the part that seems insane to me.
I am sure there are those that would have volunteered in an instant.
*1. **To get aboard, to take part in a journey that seems so uncertain, to start a journey into the unknown, unsure if you will make it!*
*2. **What would make you get onboard?
*
!
II.
Last year, my message for Resurrection Sunday was "On no! He's back!"
!! A. The question that I asked was, were the disciples on that first resurrection Sunday excited that Jesus was back?
1.
Would they have wanted the same Jesus back.
2. The one who challenged them to break down the prejudices.
3.
The one who destroyed social boundaries and taught them to do the same.
4. The one who said, "Go, sell all you have and give it to the poor"
!! B. Or, the same Jesus back whom
1.
They had denied
2. They had misunderstood
3. The one whom they had abandoned when he most needed them…
!! *C. **Maybe, on that Sunday morning they went from, "He's dead, our leader is dead, what will become of us" to "He's back, what will become of us?"*
1.
What would Jesus say to them?
2. Would he be angry?
3. Would he shake his head and give them that "I am disappointed in you" look.
(You know the look)
a.
I think they were probably more afraid of having him back…
b.
I would be.
!
III.
This year, I would like to pick-up where I left off last year
!! A. A kind of sequel.
!! B. He's Back, Part 2
1.
It is not too long to wait for sequel these days.
How long have we been waiting for Spiderman 3, Pirates 3 or Rocky 7! (or 8, I lost track)
!! C. John and describe the breakfast meal…
1. Out fishing, when Jesus appears to them for the 3rd time since his resurrection…
!
*IV.
**John 21:15-17*
/A. //When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?”
He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.”
Jesus said to him, “Feed my lambs.”
A second time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”
He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.”
Jesus said to him, “Tend my sheep.”
He said to him the third time, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter felt hurt because he said to him the third time, “Do you love me?”
And he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.”
Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep… /
!
V. A familiar passage
!! A. Many suggest that the point of this passage is the two kinds of love that are used.
1.
Agape and Phileo..
2. Unconditional love and brotherly love Philadelphia (City of Brotherly Love)
!! B. The argument goes something like this..
1. Jesus says, agape in the first two, Peter responds with Philo
2. Then, for his third question, Jesus, uses Peter's choice, Philo..
!! C. Some suggest that Jesus is saying, do you love me unconditionally?
OK, well are you at least my friend.
!! D. Probably not the case
1. First, both words are used by John to talk about God's love for his people
2. Second, we really do not see Jesus in the Gospels as a person of compromise.
a. "Be prefect as your Heavenly Father is perfect"
b. "Leave all that you have an come and follow me"
c. "Let the dead bury the dead, you come and follow me"
d.
Does not sound much like, "Awww, come-on can't we still be friends"
!
VI.
Others suggest that Jesus is wiping the slate clean with Peter, giving him another chance.
!! A. Peter denied him three times, in front of a lot of people.
It is hard to "take it back?
1. Pillow story
a.
There was once a man who went through the community slandering the rabbi of a small town.
b.
One day get learns that the rabbi has found out, so he felt bad, very bad and when to the rabbi and he begged for forgiveness.
c. "I will do anything…"
d.
The rabbi instructed him to take a feather pillow from his house, open it and scatter the feathers to the wind.
Then, he could return to see the rabbi.
e.
The man did as he was told and then came to the rabbi asking, “Am I now forgiven?”
f. “Almost,” the rabbi answered.
“You just have to do one more thing – go and gather up all the feathers.”
g. “That’s impossible,” the man complained.
“they are everywhere!"
h. “Of course,” answered the rabbi.
