Podcasts about adonai lord

Sovereign.  Ruler.  Master.  All these define Adonai (Lord).  We use this name for God a lot.  But like Abram, we often don't fully appreciate its meaning until we find ourselves in difficult circumstances we can't manage on our own.

In Bible times, every seven years all slaves had the chance to go free. If they chose to stay with their masters, they would be taken to the public market and a peg was put through one of the slave's ears to mutilate the ear. That way he would be "marked" as a slave who loved his master and did not want to go free. We are called to serve God as willing slaves. Do you consider yourself "marked" for God?

What did Jesus do when he died on the cross? The answer to that question is the heart of the gospel. It's the most important thing that we could know about God — and the good news about the heart of the good news is that God has made it clear to us in the Scriptures. At the cross, we know that … “Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us” — Galatians 3:13. For our sake, “[God] made [Jesus] to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God” — 2 Corinthians 5:21. “Christ suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God…” — 1 Peter 3:18. The theological term for this is “substitutionary atonement.” It means that Jesus died for us, in our place. That is the main fact of the cross that we must understand and cling to, and when we do — when we cling to substitution as the main fact of the cross — then we can begin to see that it wasn't the only fact of the cross. Jesus was mainly our substitute, but he was also our example. One way to say it is that … Jesus as our substitute means he went to the cross so that we wouldn't have to. Jesus as our example means he went to the cross so that we would join him there. Both are true — and in today's passage, the call is that we join him there. In Philippians 2, verses 5–11, Paul shows us the example of Jesus, and he tells us to be like him.And I don't think we could overstate just how amazing these verses are. Most commentators say that this is the most important passage in Philippians — the first part of the letter flows into it, and the second part of the letter flows out of it. One commentator says that not only is this passage the centerpiece of Philippians, but it's the centerpiece of the entire New Testament!So I just wanna say: I'm so glad that God saved me and let's me do what I get to do right now. I can't believe I get to show you the things I get to show you today. There are three things I want us to see. They are three truths about the example of Jesus. Let's pray and we'll get started:Father, thank you for all of this, for this morning and this moment. Give us, now, eager hearts to receive what you have for us. By your Spirit and his power, show us the glory of Jesus. Help us to see him more clearly than ever before. In his name, amen. Three truths about the example of Jesus:1) The example of Jesus is practical.When I say “practical” I mean that it's immediately relevant. And this is important to keep in mind because by verse 6, the theological depth of this passage is overwhelming. Paul is mining the mystery of how Jesus thought in his pre-incarnate existence as the Second Person of the Holy Trinity. So this is deep! There's a lot here!Which means we have to be careful that we don't lose sight of the forest for the trees. Because what Paul says here about Jesus is meant to serve a direct purpose — which is what he's just been talking about in verses 3 and 4: the topic is humility. We saw this last week, verse 3: “Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit…” That word “conceit” is extra special; it's the Greek word kenodoxia, which means literally empty glory — some English translations put it as “vain conceit.” Acting like you've got something when really it's a big bag of nothing. Empty glory. You get the idea. Remember that word.“Do nothing from selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.”Then in verse 4, Paul just restates that same idea:“Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.”Paul is describing humility here, and it's humility for the sake of what? … You remember? Real church unity.We see the topic of unity in verses 1 and 2 and it goes back to the end of Chapter 1. Bringing It All TogetherPaul exhorts this church to be united, to have real church unity, which is not unity for its own sake. This is Holy Spirit unity that displays that we're living as citizens of heaven worthy of the gospel of Christ — Chapter 1, verse 27. So just for a second here, I want to bring together this passage with the end of Chapter 1. This is bringing together our last four weeks …First, our primary calling as a local church is to live together in this world as a witness to the all-satisfying value of Jesus … And that life together is manifest through real church unity … And though it's embattled unity from the outside and the inside, real church unity comes through humility — And if we want to know about humility, we look to Jesus. That's Paul's train of thought that leads us to verse 5. So we need to remember that the example of Jesus in verses 5–11 is meant to be practical. Jesus has modeled for us how to be humble, and being humble is absolutely necessary if people are going to get along. Good for MarriageThat's why this passage is my favorite passage to preach at a wedding (getting along is helpful if you're married). I've preached these verses maybe 20 times at weddings (which means some of you have had to hear it a lot). This is no joke. A few years ago there was one couple, I officiated their wedding at the beginning of the year, preached Philippians 2, and then I did three other weddings later than year where I also preached Philippians 2, and that couple was at all those weddings. By the fourth time, I saw the couple before the wedding started, and I went up to them and said, Look, I think God is trying to tell you something.Seriously. Young married couples listen up — also old married couples — and everybody in-between … you wanna know a secret to a good marriage? Learn humility. If I could be personal for just a minute, today is March 3, 2024 which means that as of today, I've been married to my wife for 17 years. And look, 17 years ago, I thought I was riding into our marriage on a white horse, but it wasn't long before Jesus told me that I was on his horse and I needed to get off. Humility changed my life and my marriage … and I'm not pretending to be the expert on humility [the expert on humility around here is David Mathis — bro wrote a book titled Humbled] — I'll just say that whatever I know about humility, I learned it from Jesus, and this is the passage.Philippians 2:5, “Have this mind — the mindset just described in verses 3–4 — have this humble mindset among yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus.So get ready. We're about to learn humility from Jesus. 2) The example of Jesus shows us true humility.This is gonna be clear in the passage, but I think we could also just use our heads to figure out that if we want to learn about humility, we're looking at the right place. Just think with me here, theologically. Two questions:Who is the humblest person to ever live? [Jesus]When was Jesus his most humblest? [at the cross]So add this up: we know the humblest person to ever live AND we know when he was his most humblest, so then whatever we think about humility, it should be shaped by that — right?! Of course!And that's where Paul takes us, starting in verse 6. This is the humility of “Christ Jesus” …“… who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.”The cross of Christ is the paragon of humility — and I hope we never think about humility again without thinking about the cross. (That's one of my little goals for this sermon.)The cross was the ultimate, definitive display of humility by the humblest person to ever live — and so let's see how Jesus got there. We're gonna work our way backwards from verse 8.The end of verse 8: “even death on a cross.” That's the lowest. But before Jesus got there, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death. And before Jesus got to that obedience, he became human — but not just a human, he became a slave — And what led him to do that? Verse 6: “he did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped but emptied himself.”The Headwaters And right there in verse 6, in that counting (that calculating) — that is the headwaters of Jesus's humility. Verses 7 and 8 flows from that counting in verse 6. So what does it mean? What does it mean to “not count equality with God a thing to be grasped.”A lot of it has to do with that word “a thing to be grasped.” Let's focus in on that in verse 6, those words “to be grasped.”Now we know that Jesus is equal with God. He is God. The Bible teaches us that Jesus, God the Son, the Second Person of the Trinity, is eternally begotten of God the Father, and the Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son, and these three real persons are of one substance, power, and eternity, each having the whole divine essence, yet the essence is undivided.Jesus is God! That's who he is. That's his identity — so then what's it mean that he did not count that as something “to be grasped”? This word here is only used this one time in the entire Bible, and so we have to look around in classical Greek to see how it was used there to try to figure out what Paul is saying.Well the word could also be translated as “seize” or “take advantage of.” It means to seize or to take or to lay claim to something that's rightfully yours. Jesus didn't do that with his ‘God-ness' — his glory. He knew who he was, but he didn't take advantage of his identity, instead, he emptied himself. And that word “emptied himself” should send us back to verse 3, “vain conceit” (kenodoxia, empty glory). Part of the same Greek word in verse 3 that means “empty” is used here, but see here Jesus didn't have vain conceit, he didn't have “empty glory” — he emptied himself of the rights of his true glory. … There's a little play on words going on — Jesus didn't act like he had something but it was a big bag of nothing; Jesus had everything and he made himself nothing. He emptied himself of the truest glory of all.Jesus, being eternally God, his glory is immense and incomprehensible. He is almighty, every way infinite, most holy, most wise, most free, most absolute. He has always worked all things according to the counsel of his most righteous will, and he said: I don't have to seize that. I don't have to take advantage of the rights of my true glory, so … I'll become a man, I'll become a slave, I'll become obedient to the very end, suffering to the point of death, I'll even die on a cross.A cross — There could be no more extreme opposite to his glory. Nobody — not a single Jew and not a single Philippian shaped by the values of the Roman Empire — nobody would have ever thought that the man on the cross could be God. There was no category for that. Not for that kind of shame. When Jesus emptied himself to the point of death on a cross, he subjected himself to not only people not recognizing him as God, but he also subjected himself to everyone thinking the absolute worst of him, and he never tried to set the record straight. And that was actually the thing that they went for, if we can remember his cross.And we have to join him there, okay … the humblest man to ever live in his most humblest moment. It was three hours, from noon to 3pm on Good Friday. That was the humblest man's humblest moment, but was there a most humblest moment within that humblest moment? — I don't know — but, I can't help but think about what the onlookers said to him. That Is Who I Am!First I should tell you a story (and forgive me if you've heard this story before) … When I was in 5th grade I won an art contest, which was pretty cool because I won like $100 bucks and my art (it was a drawing) was gonna be displayed at this big county-wide event. There was gonna be a big exhibit, art everywhere, and my first place art was gonna be there front and center.So my mom and dad took me to this thing so they could see the picture I drew — they had not seen it yet. So we got there, and you could see the ‘first place area' at a distance, so we began to walk up toward my picture, and as we were walking up, the director of the exhibit was standing beside my picture talking to another kid my age — and as we got closer I realized that this kid was telling the director that my picture was his. The director guy was super interested and he was asking this kid all about certain details in the picture, and this kid was answering all his questions! But then I was standing there with my parents and it was my name under the picture. And so what do you think I did?With ever fiber of my being, I seized every possible fact I could to prove that the picture was mine. That's my picture! That's my name! That's my school! These are my parents — Dad, show ‘em your license! That is who I am! That's me! Don't deny me my glory! And I grasped for it. Do you remember what they said to Jesus at the cross? Radical Security in GodWe have to join him there.Behold the man upon a cross, My sin upon his shoulders; Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice Call out among the scoffers.What did we say? … “If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross” (see Matthew 27:40). Which was not a request. It was a statement. The scoffers didn't just not recognize Jesus as God, they called him a fake. A liar. Prove to us, they said — Right now, prove to us who you are!And do you know what he could have done? We've read the Book of Exodus around here.We know what he could have done, but what did he do?He still did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped but he emptied himself. He did not take advantage of his glory. He did not vindicate his identity, but … he yielded the vindication of his identity to God.And that's it. That's true humility. According to Jesus — the humblest person to ever live in his most humblest moment — he shows us that true humility is the faith-fueled refusal of self-vindication. Or to say it positively, Jesus shows us that true humility is radical security in God. Jesus was so confident that the Father would take care of him that he didn't need to “get his.” He didn't have to prove who he was, because he knew who he was and he knew the Father would make it plain at the right time. So Jesus yielded … and yielded … and yielded … until he was dead on a cross … a cross.Given the Name“Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name.”From the lowest possible low, death on a cross, to the highest possible high, God the Father says I'll tell you who he is. See, Jesus did not vindicate himself, but the Father vindicated him by raising him from the dead and declaring his name. THE NAME! The name above every name — and that name could only be one! It's the name Yahweh. Jesus is Yahweh. And then in verse 10 Paul quotes from the Old Testament Book of Isaiah, Chapter 45. It's a high point in Isaiah when God is declaring his unrivaled supremacy over all nations. Listen to Isaiah 45:21. This is God speaking: “21 And there is no other god besides me, a righteous God and a Savior; there is none besides me. 22 “Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other. 23 By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: ‘To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.'God says that about himself in Isaiah 45 and now here, in Philippians 2, Paul says that's about Jesus — “… at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”And any Jewish person hearing this would get the message, but Paul is also doing something else here.And this brings us to the third truth to see …3) The example of Jesus changes the way we see life in this world.Everybody focus on that sentence in verse 11, “Jesus Christ is Lord.” I want to make sure you see that word “Lord” in verse 11.Now the word “Lord” is a word that we use today, but I want us to think about it from the standpoint of this original audience in the First Century. Track with me:Anybody with a Jewish background would have heard the sentence “Jesus is Lord” to mean that Jesus is Yahweh. That's because the word “Lord” was the word substituted for the divine name “Yahweh” in the Old Testament. Out of reverence, Jewish people would not speak the name “Yahweh” but instead, whenever “Yahweh” shows up in the Scriptures, they would say the Hebrew word Adonai (“Adonai” it a title that means “Lord”). And so when the Greeks translated the Hebrew Old Testament, they put in their word for Adonai (Lord) which was Kyrios. So at this time, kyrios was the word Jewish people used for Yahweh. For Jews, Jesus is kyrios meant Jesus is Yahweh.But for everybody else, for all the Gentiles, the word kyrios (lord) meant something else — because “Lord” was the title used for the Roman Emperor, the Caesar. It is a well-documented fact by historians that people at this time called the Emperor Nero Lord. There's evidence from things written at this time and from things found, that in a Roman colony like Philippi, there would have been what was basically propaganda all throughout the city that said “Caesar is Lord.” Historians call this the “imperial religion.” Political loyalty to Rome meant you worshiped the Roman Emperor — you called him Lord. So for this little church at Philippi, as the Roman world around them was saying “Caesar is lord” — Paul says, No, Jesus is Lord. And you know what else? One day, everybody will know that. One day every knee will bow in all creation — every knee including Caesar's knee — will bow before Jesus, and every tongue — including Caesar's tongue — will confess, “Jesus Christ is Lord.”The one who died on a cross, the one who was mocked and despised, who was called a fake — he is actually the One to whom every creature must answer. Every single creature to ever live will bow to Jesus — Jesus who is Lord … Jesus who was the slave crucified … because he did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped. And we're supposed to be like him.We Don't Have to “Get Mine”And this changes everything. How could we ever look at this world the same?Especially if you're surrounded by a world, by a culture, that is antagonistic to your faith. What if it's a world that rejects you or even persecutes you, like the conflict that Paul and these Christians faced with the Romans. The Roman Empire had no idea who these Christians were and what that meant. And that's actually something we have in common with them. The surrounding world has never really understood who we are.I just was talking about this a couple of weeks ago with Pastor Mike Schumann. We were having lunch, and this place we were at was packed, and I was looking around and I said: Nobody in here knows that we are children of God, that one day we're gonna judge angels, that one day we're going to inherit the whole world, one day this restaurant is gonna be ours … and nobody in here knows.And what that means, at a very practical level, is that we don't have to go through this life always grasping to “get ours.” There might not be a more backwards way for a Christian to think than to have a kind of anxiety-driven, self-vindicating hustle mentality. A lot of times though we can see life this way. We can think about life the way Marshawn Lynch thought about football. Marshawn Lynch used to be the running back for the Seattle Seahawks, and once he was asked about his mentality on the football field, and he said: “I feel like on that field, there's no reason I can't run through you … I know I'm gonna get got, but I'm gon' get mine more than I get got, though.”I'm gon' get mine more than I get got. That might work for an NFL running back, but not for life, not for Christians.The example of Jesus means: I don't have to “get mine” — Because God is going to take care of me. We don't have to be afraid of going low, of being thought low. We don't have to fear the cross because we know Who we are — and we know where all of this is headed. That's what it means to be Easter people in a Good Friday World.And that was the witness of Kayla Rigney. Kayla walked through the valley of the shadow of death and she feared no evil because she was humble like Jesus, because she knew God would take care of her. See, Kayla is good Easter people. That's who we're called to be. That's the example of Jesus.Our radical security in God is our humility. And because of Jesus, like Jesus, we can be truly humble, to the glory of God the Father. And that's what brings us to this Table.The TableIf you're here today and you're not a Christian, I doubt any of this makes sense to you. You have to know Jesus first, and we get to know him by trusting him. And so I want to invite you to do that. If you've never put your faith in Jesus, would you put your faith in Jesus right now?For those of us who have trusted in Jesus, for those of us who hope in him, let's receive the bread and cup this morning and give him thanks. Jesus Christ is Lord! What a Savior!

The Pharisees and Sadducees had had their turn in asking Jesus hard questions in order to test Him and entangle Him in His words. Now the shoe would be on the other foot, as Jesus didn't let them retreat too far! He asked them a question of His own. I like this quote from R.C.Sproul, “If His answers made them look foolish, His questions removed any doubt!” That reminds me of people who try to wade into theological debates that they aren't capable or trained well enough in. When asked to back up their points they often can't and therefore try to change the subject. What Jesus did on this occasion was to out manoeuvre His opponents, and force them into a corner wherein they had to answer that the Promised Messiah (Christ) was to be the son of David (a descendant of David's along his royal lineage. But then Jesus quoted Psalm 110:1 where Jehovah (YHWH) speaks to The Sovereign Lord (Adonay/Adonai), and yet David is saying that this Adonai (Lord) is his Sovereign Lord. And so Jesus asked, “Who was David speaking about about when he spoke or wrote under divine inspiration?” All the fingers point to David's son as The Sovereign Lord! If there is any doubt about what is meant by Sovereign Lord, and who that actually is, then all you have to do is turn over to Psalm 8:1, where David again speaks, but this time to the same God, saying, “O LORD our Lord”, which basically means, “O LORD (God/Jehovah/I AM that I AM) our Sovereign Lord!” Are there TWO PERSONS or ONE? AHA! We could hardly say that The LORD is NOT The SOVEREIGN Lord, and so we can conclude that there are TWO PERSONS who are referred to and yet ONE BEING who is both LORD...

In Bible times, every seven years all slaves had the chance to go free. If they chose to stay with their masters, they would be taken to the public market and a peg was put through one of the slave's ears to mutilate the ear. That way he would be "marked" as a slave who loved his master and did not want to go free. We are called to serve God as willing slaves. Do you consider yourself "marked" for God? In this message, Jill explores God as our Adonai, or master, to help us understand how we can serve God better. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1141/29

You might have heard the saying, “The best teacher is experience”. No doubt in some ways this is true but honestly it is possible that an experience might get you killed, and you won't live to learn from it. I've concluded over the years that the best teacher is the Word of God! God in His Word teaches how to live and how to respond to the trials and suffering we might have to face in life. In His Word we also can learn from the experience of others. From Psalm 54 we can learn how to respond to the pain of betrayal of those we had hoped would help us in our time trouble. David was fleeing for his life from Saul and had been betrayed by the Ziphites, who were from the same tribe as he was, the tribe of Judah. You can read about how they betrayed David two different times in 1 Samuel 23:19-23 and 1 Samuel 26:1-4. Once was bad enough, but twice must have really hurt! What can we learn from David's experience? David was the rightful king of Israel, and the future of the nation and the dynasty lay with him. This included the promise of Messiah, who would come from David's line (2 Sam. 7). "Save me, O God, by your name" means "on the basis of your character," especially His strength (v. 1) and faithfulness (v. 5). We need to remember Psalm 9:10: “And those who know Your name put their trust in You. For you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.” David promised to praise God's name after the great victory (v. 6). He used three different names of God in this brief psalm: Elohim (vv. 1, 2, 3, 4), Adonai (Lord, v. 4), and Jehovah (Lord, v. 6). "Hear my prayer" (v. 2) is a favorite approach with David (Psalms 4:1; 39:12; 143:1). "Strangers" (v. 3) doesn't suggest that his enemies were Gentiles. It can describe anybody who has turned his or her back on someone, which the Ziphites certainly did to David, their king. Why did they do it? Because they disregarded the Lord and His will for the nation of Israel. Unlike David (Ps. 16:8), “they did not set God before them” (v. 3).   David puts his confidence in the Lord (v. 4). This is the central verse of the psalm, and it records the turning point in David's experience. The word translated "help" or "helper" is related to "Ebenezer" in 1 Samuel 7:12, "Thus far the Lord has helped us" and is a word David often used in his prayers (Psalms 10:14; 30:10; 33:20; 79:9; 86:17; 115:9-11). It's worth noting that Jonathan visited David about this time, and the Lord used him to encourage His servant (1 Sam. 23:16-18). The Lord doesn't always send angels to encourage us; sometimes He uses other believers to minister to us (see Acts 9:26-28; 11:19-26). Every Christian ought to be a Barnabas, a "son of encouragement." David concludes this prayer by praising the LORD (vv. 5-7). Twice David had opportunity to slay Saul but refrained from doing so, for He knew that God would one day deal with the rebellious king (see 1 Sam. 26:8-11). "He will pay back evil to my enemies" (v. 5). (Also see Psalms 7:15-16, 35:7-8, Prov. 26:27, 28:10, 29:6.) David was away from the sanctuary, but he lifted his voice in praise to God, and his words were like a freewill offering to the Lord (Heb. 13:15). In verses 1-6, David spoke directly to the Lord, but in verse 7, he spoke to those around him and gave witness to the blessing of the Lord. His words revealed his faith, for he spoke of his deliverance as already completed as he looked calmly at his enemies (Psalms 22:17; 59:10; 92:11; 118:7). David had more suffering and peril to experience before he would ascend the throne, but he was confident that the Lord would see him through—and He did!  And the LORD will see us through too if we know His name and put our trust in Him! Today, let us learn from the “Best Teacher”. God Bless!

In Bible times, every seven years all slaves had the chance to go free. If they chose to stay with their masters, they would be taken to the public market and a peg was put through one of the slave's ears to mutilate the ear. That way he would be "marked" as a slave who loved his master and did not want to go free. We are called to serve God as willing slaves. Do you consider yourself "marked" for God? In this message, Jill explores God as our Adonai, or master, to help us understand how we can serve God better. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1141/29

Today, we are going to study Adonai (ad-o-noy’) – Lord, Master. Adonai occurs 434 times in the Old Testament. Adonai is first used in Genesis 15:2. Adonai is used heavily in Isaiah, 200 times in Ezekiel, 11 times in Daniel Chapter 9. Adonai means “Lord” or “master,” showing God has sovereignty over us. What I hope you see at the end of our time together today is that Adonai is more than a name. Adonai is really about a relationship. A relationship between God and us. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/deanna-fullerton/message

Original Broadcast: July 2008 Monthly Theme: Names of God But Moses said to the LORD, "Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either in the past or since you have spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech and of tongue." (Exodus 4:10) Adonai (Lord) This morning's name, Adonai, is one of the most prolific names of God in the Old Testament. It's the name that would be substituted for the personal divine name YHWH when it was read in the Temple and the synagogue. However, it's very seldom used by itself when addressing God or describing God. It's mostly found in the compound Adonai YHWH--Lord GOD (GOD in all capitals in our versions). This is the most common name used for God in the books of Moses. Adonai, in its basic sense, means "master." Adonai, in reference to God, shows that He is the ruler of all things. God is the master of life in this world and the next. God is the Christian's master. St. Paul reminds the Romans, "you who were once slaves to sin ... having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness" (5:17-18). The master of righteousness is God. Spend a few moments this morning speaking to Adonai, your master, and see what He has planned for you to do for all eternity. Amen.

This lesson continues examining Jesus’ teaching about the Holy Spirit during what is commonly understood as the Upper Room Discourse (John 13-16). While the entirety of these chapters should be carefully studied with much prayer and meditation, our concern will be with the specifics of the ministry of the Holy Spirit and the incredible relationship that He brings to the believer in Christ.First, we must consider the context of the passage at hand. With chapter 15 comes Jesus’ teaching on what it is to “abide” in Him. This is something that will be covered in detail later, but it would be good for the sake of context to read v.1-11. Starting in John 15:12, the commandment as expressed in 13:34-35 is reiterated, beginning an inclusiothat persists unto John 15:17. “An inclusio is a literary device that marks off a section of material by putting ‘book ends’ at the beginning and end. This literary device alerts the reader to look at everything between the two similar, or identical in this case, statements as a single unit of thought.”[1]Thus, within the bookends of loving “one another” we find the subjects of “greater love” being defined as giving one’s life for his friends (15:13), that friendship with Christ is contingent upon keeping His commands (15:14) and that His disciples are considered His friends, seeing that Jesus has made all things known to them as His Father has revealed them to Him (15:15). We also read that the eleven were chosen by Christ for the purpose of “bearing fruit” and that their fruit would “remain” (menō same word for “abide”), for with such “remaining/abiding” one’s prayers are answered, seeing that they are in fellowship with the Father (15:16).Jesus then communicates that they should expect persecution and hatred because of their affiliation with Him (John 15:18-27). Accusations and violence against the believer is never a result of the believer him or herself, but is always because of Christ (15:21). He alone is the reason for reproach because what He speaks is always true (See also John 7:7). Jesus also explains His complete identification with the Father, noting that those who hate Him hate the Father as well (John 15:23-25).Because of the works that Jesus performed in front of their eyes (John 15:24a), their accountability had been jettisoned to a maximum level, seeing that the Spirit was testifying through Jesus’ works that the kingdom of God had come upon Israel (Matt 12:28).[2]These works are also understood biblically as being the evidence of God abiding in Christ (John 14:10b). It is with the context of persecution, hatred, and heightened accountability that we step into Jesus’ continued comments about the Holy Spirit. John 15:26-27. Once again, the word “Helper” is used by Jesus, being the same word as mentioned before in John 14:16 and 26. The Parakletos, the One who has been “called to one’s side,” is perfectly God as seen in the Person of the Holy Spirit. While much of the importance of this word has already been conveyed, we must still recognize the false, modern-day stigmas that usually surround the Person of the Spirit of God.The Spirit is usually understood as either being less than the Father and the Son, an influence that causes people to act irrationally, convulsing and rolling around on the floor, or altogether forgotten for the fear that He may be real and may actually enact some change in the life of the believer. Erdman sets the record straight, writing, “He is God as Creator. (Gen. 1:2; Psa. 104:30; Job 26:13; Luke 1:35.) He is one with God as Jehovah (Lord) in providential leading and care, and susceptible of grief on account of the unholiness of His chosen people. We cannot grieve an ‘influence,’ but only a person, and a person, too, who loves us. (Psa. 78:40; Eph. 4:30.) He is one with God as Adonai (Lord), whose glory Isaiah beheld and John rehearses, who commissioned the prophet and sent forth the apostle. (Isa. 6:1–10; John 12:37–41; Acts 13:2; 20:15–18.) In these Scriptures one and the same act is that of Jehovah and of Jesus and of the Holy Spirit.”[3]The Holy Spirit is to be embraced as being one in essence with the Father and the Son, equal and eternal, yet commissioned with a particular responsibility that unearths itself in Jesus’ teaching in John 15:26.Not only is the Spirit identified again as the “Helper,” but is also spoken of again as “the Spirit of truth” as seen previously in John 14:17a. This is, of course, consistent with the character and essence of the Spirit because He is perfectly God. In addition, Jesus notes that He will send the Spirit to His disciples “from the Father” (John 15:26b) which pairs perfectly with His previous statements of asking of the Father to send the Spirit (John 14:16) and that the Spirit is sent by the Father in the name of Jesus in John 14:26. Again, the Holy Spirit is the specially requested and divinely sent blessing of Jesus Christ to His followers for the purpose of leading them into all truth, aiding, comforting, and teaching them all things. Jesus also mentions that “the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify about Me” (John 15:26c). The word “proceeds” means “to move out of an enclosed or well-defined two or three-dimensional area—‘to go out of, to depart out of, to leave from within.’”[4]Initially this understanding may seem like a redundancy of all that we have examined thus far from Jesus concerning the Spirit, but that is precisely the point. Our minds must be convinced about the truths of the Spirit’s divinity, His equality with the Father and the Son, and His “oneness” as part of the Trinity. He is not something less than the Father and Son. He is perfectly God!Jesus’ words in John 14:26b state that the Spirit “will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.” This statement is further enhanced in 15:26c because the Spirit will also “testify about Me.” This comment must be kept within the preceding context of persecution. The Spirit of God always points to Jesus. He never points to Himself. In the middle of slander and oppression comes the opportunity to speak on behalf of Jesus’ Name, and the Spirit is divinely commissioned to bear witness to who Jesus is and what He has done for the world in paying for their sins with His own blood. This is seen in the connection between 15:26 and 27 with Jesus stating that the disciples would also testify because they had been with Him from the beginning. We must not think that there are two separate testimonies going on; only two separate entities (Spirit and the disciples) that are testifying to the same things, with the Spirit enhancing and directing the testimony as dispensed by the disciples.To think that what needs to be said of Christ can be said with power and confidence because the Church Age believer has the indwelling Holy Spirit should encourage all of us to look for opportunities to speak lovingly and boldly for His Name. He has given us of Himself to “bring to your remembrance” (John 14:26b) what you and I should say. He will aid us divinely in testifying about Christ our Lord![1]Gary Derickson and Earl Radmacher, The Disciplemaker: What Matters Most to Jesus(Salem, OR: Charis Press, 2001), p. 198, footnote 2.[2]The word for “sin” in John 15:24 is harmatianand is better understood as “guilt.” Jesus’ signs were from the Holy Spirit, bringing a greater accountability upon the Jews. However, this verse does not mean that if Jesus had never worked wonders that the Jews would not have sin. His miracles increased their accountability.[3]W. J. Erdman, The Fundamentals: A Testimony of the Truth,vol. 2, ed. R.A. Torrey and A.C. Dixon (Bellingham, WA: Logos Bible Software, 2005), p. 338.[4]Louw and Nida, p. 186.

Danny discusses the second Name of God in our series: Adonai, Lord & Master.

Does God need a name? Joshua said to all the people, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Long ago your ancestors, including Terah the father of Abraham and Nahor, lived beyond the Euphrates River and worshiped other gods. Joshua 24:2 Not all “gods” are the same For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”), yet for us there is but one God... 1 Corinthians 8:5-6 What is his name? Moses said to God, “Suppose…they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what shall I tell them?” Exodus 3:13 I AM or I will be = ehyeh God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” Exodus 3:14 HE IS = YHWH, Tetragrammaton translated in English as “LORD” God also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The LORD the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’ This is my name forever, the name you shall call me from generation to generation.” Exodus 3:15 YHWH + Jireh (Will Provide), Rapha (Heals You), y Nissi (Is My Banner) Other names in Hebrew: Elohim (God), El Elyon (The Most High God), Adonai (Lord, Master, Sovereign), El Shaddai (Lord God Almighty), El Olam (The Everlasting God), El Qanna (Jealous God); in Greek: Logos (Word of God), Alpha and Omega (The First and the Last). It’s His identity and His character Then the LORD came down in the cloud and stood there with him and proclaimed his name, the LORD. And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “The LORD, the LORD the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.” Genesis 34:5-7 The name that saves Those who know your name trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. Psalm 9:10 Everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved. Joel 2:32 Jesus, the physical embodiment of YHWH himself “A Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.” Luke 2:11 “I have made you [your name] known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.” John 17:26 Jesus = Yeshua, the Lord saves Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12 Jesus is the Lord God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:9-11 “This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name” Matthew 6:9 How to respond to God’s name? Moses bowed to the ground at once and worshiped. Genesis 34:8

Adonai - Lord Genesis 15:1-6 Rev Keith Morrison

Bible reading Jonah 1:1-17 Jonah Flees From the Lord 1 The word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai: 2 “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.” 3 But Jonah ran away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord. 4 Then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. 5 All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep. 6 The captain went to him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us so that we will not perish.” 7 Then the sailors said to each other, “Come, let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity.” They cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah. 8 So they asked him, “Tell us, who is responsible for making all this trouble for us? What kind of work do you do? Where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?” 9 He answered, “I am a Hebrew and I worship the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.” 10 This terrified them and they asked, “What have you done?” (They knew he was running away from the Lord, because he had already told them so.) 11 The sea was getting rougher and rougher. So they asked him, “What should we do to you to make the sea calm down for us?” 12 “Pick me up and throw me into the sea,” he replied, “and it will become calm. I know that it is my fault that this great storm has come upon you.” 13 Instead, the men did their best to row back to land. But they could not, for the sea grew even wilder than before. 14 Then they cried out to the Lord, “Please, Lord, do not let us die for taking this man's life. Do not hold us accountable for killing an innocent man, for you, Lord, have done as you pleased.” 15 Then they took Jonah and threw him overboard, and the raging sea grew calm. 16 At this the men greatly feared the Lord, and they offered a sacrifice to the Lord and made vows to him. Jonah's Prayer 17 Now the Lord provided a huge fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

Adonai: Lord and Master Exodus 4:10-17 The Names of God Sermon Series Danny Forshee Great Hills Baptist Church October 17, 2010

But Moses said to the LORD, "Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either in the past or since you have spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech and of tongue." (Exodus 4:10)

God describes Himself as Adonai: Lord and Master. The truth is, He has given us any rights we have, offensive though it may seem.
