Sermon Transcript Tone Analysis

Thank you so much for that.

Dave, and I'm at this time, we're just going to release the kids to Sunday school, so you can just head to that door, meet your teachers and they'll take you downstairs.

And the rest of us will just go into a quick 3-minute break.

So feel free to greet those around.

You say hi.

Find out other week was and we will see you back soon.

I know Mom and Dad's not around.

I just want you to focus on the bus guy.

when I don't know where,

How do I start it off.

Are you close to me?

Show me.

What is a dream?

Why does everybody?

Show me.

What is that your answer?

Let him know.

We don't know.

I know you.

I know Mom and Dad's not around.

I just want you to focus on the boat guy.

I need shoes.

I don't know why.

Show me.

What is a dream?

It's always good to see people.

Getting up and meeting each other and talking with each other.

Praying with each other hugging.

Each other shaking head laughing, crying whatever you're doing.

It's awesome.

Been a while.

It if I promise to be done early again today, and you have more time afterwards.

Can we get started?

Cuz what if someone's waiting online and just bored waiting, so good to see all of you today and so good to meet some of you today.

It's great.

I had a really interesting email, come to me a couple of weeks ago.

And it.

I imagine this is a young man because he's emailed me before about a few things and I've helped them out.

I I don't know.

I'm assuming he's a young brand, like a new Christian kind of thing.

happy to answer questions, people have, but He came to me with a question, it's that you know, is Christ returning on Rosh Hashanah this year.

Should I be worried?

And and for those of you who don't know, Rosh Hashanah takes place between September 25th and 27th this year, and it is the only ancient biblical Feast that Jesus didn't fulfill in his life.

Which is interesting.

Butts.

This guy is watching all these videos on YouTube, telling him the Christ is coming back, this September and it's just like it yourself in your family.

Ready, you know, tell your neighbors are going to hell.

All this kind of stuff that you just, you know, really great.

Great material.

Now, how many of you guys remember 88 reasons why Christ was coming back in 1988?

It was a little book.

I need to find that book because that book, he said the author said all of these reasons points in 1998, or I think it was 2032, but he knew it wasn't 2032 and his reasoning back in 98 was because the Communists would kill us if we hit goes beyond 1988.

You guys remember 1988, right? Ronald Reagan, evil empire.

That's what we believed back then.

But I'm just thinking like, if I could get that book and just redo it for the next time we might make some money.

But anyway,

How about you?

Remember Y2K whenever they was going to shut down ytk?

How many got excited over 2012?

The end of the Mayan calendar is lined up with a lot of things that Jesus was coming back to, you know.

I'm not a big fan of scaring people into the kingdom.

I'm not a big fan of selling fire insurance.

I'm not a big fan of, you know getting by the skin of your teeth.

And I'm not a big fan of authors putting themselves, but I'm going to do it here cuz this is the email I sent him.

That I've let go of eschatological debates since I figured out that every opinion is so North American and Northern Europeans entered it in.

1989 were Christians were martyred, then were slaughtered in the history of Christianity and the 1990 that was doubled and yet

It was a Great Tribulation but it's not called the Great Tribulation until I'm affected in some way.

That's that doesn't make sense to me.

I said, I'd rather help people get ready for whatever happens and do good right now, rather than hope they get taken out ahead of time or hang on there and in your yes, Jesus is coming back.

Yes, be ready for his return.

If it's this September, awesome, even so come Lord Jesus, But realize every time someone thinks better than Jesus when he said, no one knows the day or the hour really get it wrong.

And yes, I know that that Steven points to Rosh Hashanah, the only Jewish Festival Jesus has yet to fulfill and the statement, No One Knows the day or the hours made during Rosh Hashanah.

How do we?

How about we bring Jesus into her?

The people in her everyday World by being like him in this world, then you'll be ready whenever he comes, then we'll be ready.

If we're the first up against the wall and shot worth of Ray.

If the revolution comes beforehand, then we'll cherish the reality that to be absent from the body means that were present to the Lord.

I've heard these declarations before probably by the one saying the same thing again or by the disciples.

And I've lived long enough to know how difficult it is for people to grow in the knowledge of God.

If they've been scared into the kingdom, you know what I was trying to say to him was that if we abide in Christ in the day-to-day of every day, We'll be ready and we'll be getting other people ready for whatever comes in this world.

Whatever is is available for us later.

When we abide in Christ, we have his wisdom.

Proverbs 13:12 says, when you walk with the wise, you become wise.

So when you walk with Jesus in the day-to-day of every day, you become more and more like Jesus, it's a good thing.

When you abide in him, you get clarity.

When you abide in him, you learn to discern.

So how do you abide in Christ?

Jesus said, if you abide in me and my words abide in you ask whatever you want, it'll be done, John 15:7.

What would be that like what would, what would that be like?

Emory quoted me this this morning.

John that the John 15:7 29 in the translation version translates.

It this way translation, I'm sorry, the passion translation, transliterated this way.

That's the only thing I have against the passion translation is it's not a translation, is the transliteration of the use the difference in early, a l manuscript.

But anyway, but it's I love how it says this.

If you live in life, Union with me, and if my words look powerfully within you, then you can ask whatever you desire and it will be done.

When your lives bear abundant fruit, you demonstrate that.

You are my mature disciples who glorify the father?

I love you with the same love that the father loves me.

You must continually let my love.
