00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.840
Real Life presents the Jack Hibbs podcast with intention and boldness to proclaim

2
00:00:05.840 --> 00:00:09.140
truth, equip the saints and impact our culture.

3
00:00:09.140 --> 00:00:13.440
You're not going to go to heaven because of your Hebrew blood, you're going to go to heaven

4
00:00:13.440 --> 00:00:17.080
because you've been washed in the blood of the Lamb of God.

5
00:00:17.080 --> 00:00:21.880
It doesn't matter if you're a Jew or Gentile male, female, bond, servant, rich or poor,

6
00:00:21.880 --> 00:00:23.880
doesn't matter.

7
00:00:23.880 --> 00:00:29.920
And that's such great news.

8
00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:36.360

Today, if this podcast lifts you up and encourages you to live a more fulfilled life in Christ,

10
00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:45.560
then make sure you leave us one of those five star ratings.

11
00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:52.160
To us, that's like saying, amen or yes, then that rating will encourage others to listen.

12
00:00:52.160 --> 00:00:58.280
Now open your hearts to what God's Word has to say to you, here is Jack Hibbs.

13
00:00:58.280 --> 00:01:05.240
Matthew chapter 23, verse 37, Matthew 23, 37, oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Jesus says,

14
00:01:05.240 --> 00:01:09.920
the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her, how often I want

15
00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:16.520
to gather your children together as a hen, gather their chicks under her wings, church

16
00:01:16.520 --> 00:01:17.520
are you with me?

17
00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:18.520
What does it say?

18
00:01:18.520 --> 00:01:23.760
But you were not willing.

19
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:29.600
Verse 38, behold, or look, your house has left you desolate.

20
00:01:29.600 --> 00:01:37.440
In other words, the temple, the temple's over, it's over, it's done, forget it.

21
00:01:37.440 --> 00:01:43.760
Jesus is saying, I'm not propping up religion anymore, I'm done with this.

22
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:50.840
You had the scripture as you should have known them today was the day.

23
00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:55.480
And besides all this now, because you've rejected, you've exercised your choice to stick

24
00:01:55.480 --> 00:02:02.960
with tradition rather than putting faith in me and Christ in the Word of God.

25
00:02:02.960 --> 00:02:08.480
Your temple, it's done, no need for it anymore.

26
00:02:08.480 --> 00:02:13.080
For I say to you, verse 39, you shall see me no more till you say blessed is he who comes

27
00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:15.040
in the name of the Lord.

28
00:02:15.040 --> 00:02:18.400
And did you know that the Bible records that in the last days, everybody listening, are

29
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:19.400
you with me?

30
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:26.440
The Bible says that at the end of the tribulation period, those remnant of living who are Jews

31
00:02:26.440 --> 00:02:36.120
who believe will cry out and say, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

32
00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:46.160
I want to remind you all again, Romans 8.29 says, for whom he for new, he also predestined.

33
00:02:46.160 --> 00:02:47.160
He knows everything.

34
00:02:47.160 --> 00:02:48.760
He can't learn anything.

35
00:02:48.760 --> 00:02:51.720
He sees down the corridors of time.

36
00:02:51.720 --> 00:02:56.360
And he knows exactly what decision you would make when the gospel would be presented to

37
00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:57.880
you, if you'd say yes or no.

38
00:02:57.880 --> 00:03:02.520
If you blow it off or not, I can't blame anybody.

39
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:06.160
It's so powerful that I can't blame it on my past.

40
00:03:06.160 --> 00:03:08.760
I can't blame it on my mom or my dad.

41
00:03:08.760 --> 00:03:11.240
I can't blame it on anybody else.

42
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:15.880
It's so powerful that it's God saying to you, what are you going to do with me?

43
00:03:15.880 --> 00:03:21.960
In the moment, in the right now, he's asking some of you, what do you say to these things?

44
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:24.800
This guy appears just been given nothing but Bible.

45
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:25.800
Forget about him.

46
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:27.640
Listen to my word, Jesus would say.

47
00:03:27.640 --> 00:03:28.640
It's my word.

48
00:03:28.640 --> 00:03:31.920
What are you going to do about me?

49
00:03:31.920 --> 00:03:36.280
Do you really want him?

50
00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:40.640
Him being the Jesus of the Bible.

51
00:03:40.640 --> 00:03:46.640
Not him being the Jesus of the New Age movement.

52
00:03:46.640 --> 00:03:50.480
The Jesus of the gurus, the Jesus of the cults.

53
00:03:50.480 --> 00:03:57.320
No, God, Jesus, Jesus, the son of God, Jesus, the one who you and I so could not help

54
00:03:57.320 --> 00:04:02.680
ourselves that he went to the cross and died in our place for us so he would pay the dead

55
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:08.840
of all of our transgressions and sins and then die in his body, die and be buried.

56
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:14.520
On the third day, he resurrected for our righteousness and he says, I did that for you and listen,

57
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:18.080
if he were to say to you, look, I did that for you.

58
00:04:18.080 --> 00:04:25.040
Listen, if you're a pre-programmed, there's no praise or worship in that, right?

59
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:27.000
Think about it.

60
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:29.680
It's almost like a petulant, spoiled child.

61
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:30.680
They always get this.

62
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:31.680
They always get that.

63
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:32.680
They always get this.

64
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:33.680
They always get that.

65
00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:37.680
And they never once say thank you because they think this is the way the world is until

66
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:42.480
it's gone and the way things are going, it's all going to be gone soon.

67
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:49.360
And our faith is going to be thrusted upon an ancient dream or a living reality.

68
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:54.200
And that living reality will be Christ, will get us all the way through the tribulations

69
00:04:54.200 --> 00:04:58.360
of life and into his presence because he's committed himself to us.

70
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:03.880
It's not your great commitment to him.

71
00:05:03.880 --> 00:05:06.560
We often say, we're hanging on.

72
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:07.560
How's it going?

73
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:09.000
We're hanging on to Christ.

74
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:10.560
Oh, that's cute.

75
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:14.800
That's like you're two-year-old thinking they're mowing the lawn.

76
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:18.400
All they're doing is they're riding on your back.

77
00:05:18.400 --> 00:05:20.920
He's hanging on to us.

78
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:24.000
And by the way, he never lets go.

79
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:28.880
Ephesians 1, verse 3 says, Ephesians 1, 3 says, Blessed be the God and Father for Lord Jesus

80
00:05:28.880 --> 00:05:33.960
Christ who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.

81
00:05:33.960 --> 00:05:40.160
Here it is, just as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world that we should

82
00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:46.720
be holy and without blame before him in love, having predestined, remember, for knowledge

83
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:53.760
precedes predestined, us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to himself, according to

84
00:05:53.760 --> 00:05:56.360
the good pleasure of his will.

85
00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:58.360
One more here.

86
00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:01.720
2 Timothy 1, verse 9.

87
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:07.080
Who has saved or is God who has saved us and called us with a holy calling?

88
00:06:07.080 --> 00:06:12.160
Not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace which was given

89
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:19.000
to us in Christ Jesus, here it comes before time began.

90
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:26.520
But has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior, Jesus Christ, isn't that beautiful?

91
00:06:26.520 --> 00:06:33.960
Another point under this here, and that is, verses 3 and 4, involves love, compassion,

92
00:06:33.960 --> 00:06:35.800
and mercy.

93
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:39.760
So we're not only grieved and sorrowful about those in our lives who are lost, which

94
00:06:39.760 --> 00:06:42.720
by the way, I should add this.

95
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:49.480
When he says that in verse 3, for I could wish that I, myself, were accursed from Christ,

96
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:51.520
this is Paul speaking.

97
00:06:51.520 --> 00:06:54.480
For my brethren, he's talking about his Jewish brothers and sisters.

98
00:06:54.480 --> 00:07:00.640
My countrymen, according to the DNA, according to the flesh, who are Israelites, wait, Paul,

99
00:07:00.640 --> 00:07:04.880
would you just say, Paul, this is Paul, no wonder why he's grieved, no wonder why he's

100
00:07:04.880 --> 00:07:11.640
sick, he was stomach, he's sick and, and he's saying, is there any way for me to be cut

101
00:07:11.640 --> 00:07:15.720
off from eternal salvation so they can have it?

102
00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:18.200
How can you, how can you say that, Paul?

103
00:07:18.200 --> 00:07:21.800
Listen, I love you guys, but not that much.

104
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:26.280
For me to say, God, send me to hell so long as they can go.

105
00:07:26.280 --> 00:07:29.960
You know what God would say to that, and he's going to say it to Paul.

106
00:07:29.960 --> 00:07:37.320
But listen, before I say it, he also had to encounter with one other person that said the

107
00:07:37.320 --> 00:07:42.160
exact same thing, Moses.

108
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:47.720
You guys, and I'll just paraphrase it, and Exodus 32 marked it down, Moses said, God,

109
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:52.800
if you're not going to save these people and rescue them, then block my name out of

110
00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:55.640
your book of life and put their name in.

111
00:07:55.640 --> 00:07:57.520
And do you know what the answer is to both these guys?

112
00:07:57.520 --> 00:08:01.760
The answer to Moses and the answer to Paul from God is the same thing.

113
00:08:01.760 --> 00:08:04.280
It doesn't work that way.

114
00:08:04.280 --> 00:08:07.560
It doesn't work that way.

115
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:11.480
Stop right there, press pause, everybody, here's the thing.

116
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:17.320
The only love I can imagine coming close, and Lisa and I have felt this.

117
00:08:17.320 --> 00:08:19.520
At least at this stage of our lives this far.

118
00:08:19.520 --> 00:08:23.680
We remember when our daughter became violently, immediately sick.

119
00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:24.800
She was eight months old.

120
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:30.240
She was rushed to Children's Hospital of Orange County.

121
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:36.000
And the pediatric hematologist came out and said, I give your daughter 50% chance to live

122
00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:39.080
at best.

123
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:45.420
We don't know what she has, but because of that, she's in quarantine, and she's been

124
00:08:45.420 --> 00:08:46.420
quartered.

125
00:08:46.420 --> 00:08:47.420
They had to quarter her.

126
00:08:47.420 --> 00:08:54.540
They had to tie all the four extremities to the four posts of the hospital bed and strip

127
00:08:54.540 --> 00:08:57.020
her down to her little body.

128
00:08:57.020 --> 00:09:00.380
Because if you touched her skin, she would bleed through her pores.

129
00:09:00.380 --> 00:09:02.140
Her blood cells were licing.

130
00:09:02.140 --> 00:09:05.140
Her blood cells were breaking apart and falling apart.

131
00:09:05.140 --> 00:09:12.740
And the blood cells, her hematocrit dropped so violently low that the skin couldn't even

132
00:09:12.740 --> 00:09:14.460
hold the blood back.

133
00:09:14.460 --> 00:09:21.220
The blood was leaving her veins in her arteries and floating to the level of the skin and coming

134
00:09:21.220 --> 00:09:22.940
out of her pores.

135
00:09:22.940 --> 00:09:27.220
So if you touched her chest or her cheek or her nose, blood would come out.

136
00:09:27.220 --> 00:09:32.340
And the 50% chance are less to live.

137
00:09:32.340 --> 00:09:34.180
And then, what do you do?

138
00:09:34.180 --> 00:09:38.620
If you've ever been there, listen, there are people, I'm not going to name them, but there

139
00:09:38.620 --> 00:09:43.660
are people who lead you in worship here, up here.

140
00:09:43.660 --> 00:09:46.100
And you know they come up here and they lead you in worship, and you don't know anything

141
00:09:46.100 --> 00:09:47.100
about their life.

142
00:09:47.100 --> 00:09:51.300
You have no idea that when they're done here, they go back to the hospital because their

143
00:09:51.300 --> 00:09:55.060
son, for example, has been in the hospital more than he's been home over the years of his

144
00:09:55.060 --> 00:09:57.060
life.

145
00:09:57.060 --> 00:09:59.900
And he could die at any time from his cancers.

146
00:09:59.900 --> 00:10:01.900
But they're leading you in worship.

147
00:10:01.900 --> 00:10:07.380
But you don't know that because we don't burden you with that.

148
00:10:07.380 --> 00:10:13.820
So when the doctor says, she's got less than 50% chance, and she's in quarantine eight

149
00:10:13.820 --> 00:10:16.100
months old.

150
00:10:16.100 --> 00:10:17.940
Do you know what you say?

151
00:10:17.940 --> 00:10:18.940
This is what you say.

152
00:10:18.940 --> 00:10:24.180
God, seriously, let's make a deal.

153
00:10:24.180 --> 00:10:26.140
No funny business.

154
00:10:26.140 --> 00:10:29.700
Your God, whatever she has, give it to me.

155
00:10:29.700 --> 00:10:30.700
Take it off of her.

156
00:10:30.700 --> 00:10:33.220
Have you ever prayed that prayer?

157
00:10:33.220 --> 00:10:34.220
Is your husband have cancer?

158
00:10:34.220 --> 00:10:35.220
Is it your wife?

159
00:10:35.220 --> 00:10:36.220
Is it your kids?

160
00:10:36.220 --> 00:10:38.220
Is your parents?

161
00:10:38.220 --> 00:10:39.540
I know no other love.

162
00:10:39.540 --> 00:10:46.540
Listen, there is a love that is among warriors.

163
00:10:46.540 --> 00:10:51.940
If a hand grenade is tossed, the US Marine throws himself on it before he ever thinks.

164
00:10:51.940 --> 00:10:53.540
He's been programmed to do that.

165
00:10:53.540 --> 00:10:58.100
He's been trained so well and hard that when that grenade lands on the ground, he doesn't

166
00:10:58.100 --> 00:11:01.140
say, oh, God, grenade.

167
00:11:01.140 --> 00:11:06.380
He yells grenade as he's throwing his body onto it and he's been taught how to embrace

168
00:11:06.380 --> 00:11:12.580
the grenade so that he saves his brothers.

169
00:11:12.580 --> 00:11:13.900
That's powerful.

170
00:11:13.900 --> 00:11:20.460
The only other thing I know is that when a parent, for example, says, God, give me that cancer.

171
00:11:20.460 --> 00:11:27.980
I cannot stand to see my child go through this or my wife or my husband.

172
00:11:27.980 --> 00:11:34.180
Your love is no man than this than a man laid down his life for his friends.

173
00:11:34.180 --> 00:11:40.580
But what if your friends have hated you, cursed your name, then all men are wrong against

174
00:11:40.580 --> 00:11:43.700
you?

175
00:11:43.700 --> 00:11:48.340
And Jesus still loves, Jesus still goes to the cross.

176
00:11:48.340 --> 00:11:54.500
You see, the scope of God's sovereignty involves love and compassion and mercy.

177
00:11:54.500 --> 00:12:02.860
These are the things that God, by the Spirit, lives out in our lives and it's very powerful.

178
00:12:02.860 --> 00:12:04.340
But that is a tortured thing.

179
00:12:04.340 --> 00:12:11.220
I wrote myself this note that I have not seen this level of anguished, tortured love in

180
00:12:11.220 --> 00:12:18.140
this world except in the life of a parent who's mourning for a wayward son or daughter

181
00:12:18.140 --> 00:12:21.580
or a sick or ill son and daughter.

182
00:12:21.580 --> 00:12:27.660
Some of us have, maybe you do, have relatives that are far from Christ and you would say to

183
00:12:27.660 --> 00:12:33.260
God, oh God, in fact, it's so bad, it hurts you so bad that you would love the rapture

184
00:12:33.260 --> 00:12:39.060
to happen today but your caveat is, oh Lord, please not today because they're not right.

185
00:12:39.060 --> 00:12:40.060
You have to leave that.

186
00:12:40.060 --> 00:12:41.060
That's none of your business.

187
00:12:41.060 --> 00:12:43.460
You have to leave that with God.

188
00:12:43.460 --> 00:12:44.660
And then we end with this.

189
00:12:44.660 --> 00:12:49.260
It's verses 4 and 5 and that is the scope of God's sovereignty incorporates the full

190
00:12:49.260 --> 00:12:54.260
counsel of God, God's full teaching.

191
00:12:54.260 --> 00:13:00.300
He says in verse 4 to whom pertain the adoption, he's speaking about the Jewish people, the

192
00:13:00.300 --> 00:13:03.700
genetic descendants of Abraham, the glory.

193
00:13:03.700 --> 00:13:08.260
Did they not see the glory in the wilderness wanderings?

194
00:13:08.260 --> 00:13:13.940
Did they see the cloud by day in the pillar of fire by night and the covenants?

195
00:13:13.940 --> 00:13:14.940
Notice it's plural.

196
00:13:14.940 --> 00:13:15.940
This is cool.

197
00:13:15.940 --> 00:13:17.660
Come with me.

198
00:13:17.660 --> 00:13:18.660
Good, good, good.

199
00:13:18.660 --> 00:13:19.940
Covenants plural.

200
00:13:19.940 --> 00:13:32.980
That's the Abrahamic covenant, promised to the Jewish people and that is the Davidic promise

201
00:13:32.980 --> 00:13:33.980
that is given.

202
00:13:33.980 --> 00:13:42.060
There are others but those two are the main covenants that didn't come to America,

203
00:13:42.060 --> 00:13:48.820
that wasn't given to Canada, God revealed himself to the Jewish people for a reason.

204
00:13:48.820 --> 00:13:52.420
And it's also, by the way, why they're in headline news.

205
00:13:52.420 --> 00:13:55.020
They're God's people.

206
00:13:55.020 --> 00:13:58.700
It doesn't mean everything that they do is right, sometimes they do things wrong.

207
00:13:58.700 --> 00:14:00.860
It has nothing to do with God choosing them.

208
00:14:00.860 --> 00:14:02.300
Do you know that?

209
00:14:02.300 --> 00:14:03.300
He's chosen them.

210
00:14:03.300 --> 00:14:04.300
You mean the whole thing?

211
00:14:04.300 --> 00:14:06.140
No.

212
00:14:06.140 --> 00:14:13.580
The land is his and those Jews who believe in him are his.

213
00:14:13.580 --> 00:14:17.020
Not all Jews will believe in him.

214
00:14:17.020 --> 00:14:19.740
They're not his.

215
00:14:19.740 --> 00:14:22.140
Not all Gentiles will believe in him.

216
00:14:22.140 --> 00:14:24.900
They're not his.

217
00:14:24.900 --> 00:14:32.860
He says here, the giving of the law, the service of God, the promises of whom are the fathers

218
00:14:32.860 --> 00:14:38.060
and from whom, listen, according to the flesh, Christ came who is over all the eternally

219
00:14:38.060 --> 00:14:39.060
blessed God.

220
00:14:39.060 --> 00:14:40.540
Listen, we're going to end with this.

221
00:14:40.540 --> 00:14:41.740
It doesn't mean get up and leave.

222
00:14:41.740 --> 00:14:44.300
It means listen to this.

223
00:14:44.300 --> 00:14:45.620
This is amazing.

224
00:14:45.620 --> 00:14:51.260
All of the promises, everything that you and I need for eternity has been promised to

225
00:14:51.260 --> 00:14:52.260
the Jew first.

226
00:14:52.260 --> 00:14:53.860
Did you know that?

227
00:14:53.860 --> 00:14:57.100
When the gospel was being preached in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, what did the Bible

228
00:14:57.100 --> 00:14:58.100
say?

229
00:14:58.100 --> 00:15:01.100
Jesus said, don't go to the Gentiles.

230
00:15:01.100 --> 00:15:03.900
Go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

231
00:15:03.900 --> 00:15:07.060
Isn't that fascinating words?

232
00:15:07.060 --> 00:15:10.740
He didn't say go and preach to the nation of Israel.

233
00:15:10.740 --> 00:15:11.740
Nope.

234
00:15:11.740 --> 00:15:12.740
What did he say?

235
00:15:12.740 --> 00:15:19.340
Go and preach to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

236
00:15:19.340 --> 00:15:22.820
Out of Israel, there will be those who are mine.

237
00:15:22.820 --> 00:15:24.380
How do you know Jesus?

238
00:15:24.380 --> 00:15:30.580
Because I'm, look at it, I, I, Christ came, okay, this is fourth grade English.

239
00:15:30.580 --> 00:15:31.580
Here we go.

240
00:15:31.580 --> 00:15:34.100
Are you ready?

241
00:15:34.100 --> 00:15:36.700
Job witnesses, Mormons, friends, listen.

242
00:15:36.700 --> 00:15:39.260
This is important.

243
00:15:39.260 --> 00:15:47.860
My Jewish friends, Muslim friends, hey, listen, for Christians who don't get it, watch this.

244
00:15:47.860 --> 00:15:50.540
According to the flesh, Christ came.

245
00:15:50.540 --> 00:15:55.900
Number one, Christ is a descendant from the fathers.

246
00:15:55.900 --> 00:15:58.580
Christ is a descendant from those who were given all the promises.

247
00:15:58.580 --> 00:15:59.780
Did you track it with me?

248
00:15:59.780 --> 00:16:02.460
You got that?

249
00:16:02.460 --> 00:16:06.220
All of this pertaining to the descendants of Abraham by DNA.

250
00:16:06.220 --> 00:16:07.220
We got that.

251
00:16:07.220 --> 00:16:13.940
Jesus, according to the genealogies in Scripture, is a descendant of Abraham, legally, blood

252
00:16:13.940 --> 00:16:14.940
lying.

253
00:16:14.940 --> 00:16:16.340
We got that.

254
00:16:16.340 --> 00:16:17.740
But did you get this?

255
00:16:17.740 --> 00:16:18.980
Christ came.

256
00:16:18.980 --> 00:16:20.780
Who is overall?

257
00:16:20.780 --> 00:16:21.780
Who?

258
00:16:21.780 --> 00:16:22.780
Who?

259
00:16:22.780 --> 00:16:25.940
Who's the who?

260
00:16:25.940 --> 00:16:27.420
You can't flood this up.

261
00:16:27.420 --> 00:16:31.100
If you flood this up, you're never going to graduate junior high.

262
00:16:31.100 --> 00:16:35.220
The who is Christ.

263
00:16:35.220 --> 00:16:37.740
It has to be.

264
00:16:37.740 --> 00:16:39.060
Christ came.

265
00:16:39.060 --> 00:16:40.660
Christ is overall.

266
00:16:40.660 --> 00:16:44.180
Christ, the eternally blessed God.

267
00:16:44.180 --> 00:16:45.180
You can't get away.

268
00:16:45.180 --> 00:16:46.180
That is a pure fact.

269
00:16:46.180 --> 00:16:48.660
You can wrestle with this for the rest of your life.

270
00:16:48.660 --> 00:16:51.260
You're going to lose.

271
00:16:51.260 --> 00:16:59.740
The eternally blessed God is the manifested in the flesh, God, the Son, having come to

272
00:16:59.740 --> 00:17:03.140
die in the cross for us.

273
00:17:03.140 --> 00:17:07.540
That's how you become a descendant of Abraham.

274
00:17:07.540 --> 00:17:10.460
You're not going to go to heaven because of your Hebrew blood.

275
00:17:10.460 --> 00:17:15.020
You're going to go to heaven because you've been washed in the blood of the Lamb of God.

276
00:17:15.020 --> 00:17:19.860
It doesn't matter if you're a Jew or Gentile male, female, bond, servant, rich or poor.

277
00:17:19.860 --> 00:17:23.020
It doesn't matter!

278
00:17:23.020 --> 00:17:43.580
And that's such great news.
