AUDIO TRANSCRIPT Who has ever received a bad haircut?Don't point to the person next to you. I'm asking you personally that'd be really rudeWhen I was a kid back in the mid 90s, I got a bad haircutMy barber really messed up my bowl cutAnd that may sound like an oxymoron because you think well a bowl cuts already kind of messed upAnd they're all kind of lame, but mine actually look pretty goodfor bull cuts except for this one timeAnd for the rest of this story, I'm gonna shift to my mom's perspective to give the story some more dramatic weightSo we get home from the haircutLater on that day my mom goes into the bathroom to find quite the crime sceneThere's hair everywhere and there are scissors right on the sinkMy mom didn't need to be Sherlock Holmes to figure out what had happened because there is an abundance of evidence right in front of her faceI had obviously tried to fix my bowl cut and made it way worse in the processAnd like any good detective my mom tried to get me to confessShe came up to me and said TaylorDid you cut your hair?I said no I didn'tEven though there's a huge chunk missing right out of the front of my bull cutSo my mom tried a different approachWell, I found hair in the sink. I found scissors and there's a huge chunk just gone from your hairAnd I kept digging my own graves. No that lady messed it upAnd my mom tried one last attempt. She said TaylorYou're not gonna be in trouble for cutting your hairBut you will be in trouble if you keep lying and you don't tell the truthWell, that was the final strawI finally broke down and I confessed like in one of those over-the-top crime dramas on TVI told my mom everything even though she already knew everythingAnd I'm sure that many of you have a similar story to tellIsn't it interesting that no one has to train you to cover up what you're ashamed ofIt comes so naturally to youIt started at a young age and even continues to this dayYou knock over something very valuable in your house as a kid and it shatters on the groundWhat do you do?You pick up all the pieces and you try to hide it somewhere, right?But you're just a kid so you're hiding place stinks and your parents find it almost immediatelyYou hit your brother or sister and they start to weep and to wailWhat's your response?You cover their mouth and threaten him or her to not tattle to your parentsYou finally get your driver's license and you promised your parents you will take care of their carBut then you immediately scratch itWhat do you do?You try to buff out that scratch and try to cover it up with the cheapest paint you can findOr how about now?At work you make a very serious and embarrassingmistakeWhat's your first blush response?To say nothing and hope that no one notices what you didHiding is easyComing clean is hardYou and I struggle to confess our sins to other people and we also struggle to tell God everything that we have doneEven though he already knowsWhat we have doneThis reluctance to be honest about our failures reveals that we have deep issues within our hearts that we cannotignoreThere's a second week of our latest series heart problems what to do when you don't want GodNo matter who you are or how long you've been a Christian you have a heart problem of some kind right nowMaybe it's spiritual lazinessMaybe it's indifference to the things of GodMaybe it's a lack of connection with the Lord in prayer or maybe it's serious doubts that you have about the Christian faith or ahabitual sinThat is hiddenAll of these problems require a surgical solution and not a quick fixLast week we studied the parable of the sower and unpacked the importance of evaluating our hearts to see how seriousof a heart surgery the Lord needs to give usThis morning we will dig into Psalm 51 as the Lord lays out the importance of another surgical solution that we must cooperate with andparticipate inConfession of sinIs this the most popular of topics in the church today?Sin is often affirmed and accepted rather than confessedAnd this is why there are so many unhealthy and dying churchesThis is why there are so many unhealthyhuman hearts within those churchesThat are spiritually withering awayFor you to get better the infection of hidden sin needs to be pulled out by the root and the method of that extraction isheartfelt confessionto the Lord andYour natural response to a message like this a passage like this will be to inwardly cross your arms and dig in your heelsAnd I want to plead with you not to do thatLower your defenses and prepare your heart for what God is going to command you to doSo let's go to the Lord and ask for his help because we certainly need itFather we come to you and we admit that we so often hide from youWe're like Adam and EveFoolishly hiding in the garden when you can see them right thereLord there are people in this room who have others fooled, but they do not have you fooled IPray that today would be the day ofRevealing what has been hidden to others ofConfessing to you what you already knowAnd we thank you for the healing we thank you for the change that you will bring through this genuine confessionWe ask all these things in Jesus name amenThe turn your Bibles to Psalm 51Psalm 51It's important to note that you should never skip the descriptions at the beginning of many of the Psalms because these descriptionsGive you helpful background informationSkipping these descriptions would be like fast-forwarding through the first two minutes of Star Wars asThe music blast the logo appears and the background text of the storyScrolls on the screen in front of you if you fast forward through thatYou're gonna miss a lot of helpful background information that will really lead you not fully understand the storyAnd the same is true for this description at the beginning of Psalm 51 if you skip itYou're not gonna understand why David wrote it in the first placeSo let's see what he says to the choir master a Psalm of David when Nathan the prophetWent to him after he had gone into BathshebaDavid may have been a great king of Israel and a man after God's own heartBut he was not free from sin and heart problems far from it. He committed adulteryand murderHe had sex with a woman who was not his wifeAnd he thought everything was under wrapsAnd no one knew but then BathshebaGets pregnant and the problem is she's married to a man named UriahInstead of confessing what he had done David decides to have Uriah killed in battleThen he movesBathsheba into his house they get married and they have their childIt seems once againThat David got away with these things got freeBut he hadWho was the one who saw what David had done?God himself the one who sees all thingsWe were told this in 2nd Samuel 11 27, but the thing that David had donedispleasedthe LordAnd God sent the prophet Nathan to confront David in his sin and thankfully David doesn't cross his arms and dig in his heelsNo, he confessesAnd he acknowledges what he had doneAnd he accepts the consequences for his sinWhich is the death of his son who was a result of this affairAnd violent division within his own familymoving forwardAnd after this confrontation David writes one of the rawest most hard-hitting songs in the entire bible in Psalm 51David honestly confessed his sinfrom the heartI know what you may be wondering after all this setupTaylor i'm certainly not a perfect person. I've made mistakes in the past. I've never done anything as bad as DavidI'm actually a pretty good person. I'm nice to other people. Why should I?confess from my heartSome of you have a different thought that has that ends with the same exact questionI see why David should confess his sin. He lived in the old testamentBut i'm a christian living after the new testament. I'm covered by the grace of jesus christ. All of my sin has been forgiven. Why should I?confessfrom my heartWell, that is a great question that we're going to spend the rest of this message answering. Why should I?Confess from my heartReason number one because my god is mercifuland lovingMy god is mercifuland lovingDavid kicks off this psalm by getting as low as he can as fast as he canHe humbles himself before his maker and admits his need for compassionIn verses one through two. Let's read that togetherHave mercy on me. Oh godAccording to your steadfast love according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressionsWash me thoroughly from my iniquity and cleanse mefrom my sinDavid makes zero excuses for his sinHe doesn't try to minimize what he has done or try to lessen its seriousnessLike celebrities and politicians who get caught in underhanded scandalsYou know what i'm talking about, right? You've received those press conferencesOr statements from famous people that are non apologeticapologiesOh, what I did was unfortunate. I got caught up in a moment of weakness. I'm sorry if what I did offended anyoneAka what I did wasn't that bad so lighten upDavid doesn't do any of this soft peddling nonsenseHe describes his affair in three different waysas transgressionas iniquityand as sinAnd these three words cross over with one another but communicate different aspects of the same conceptTransgression is purposeful rebellionIniquity is perversion a twisting of god's ways and intentionsSin is falling short and missing the mark of god's holy standardDavid is brutally honest here because he knows that he has abused his role as king to satisfy his own evil desiresDavid knows that he deserves nothing good from godBut david also knows that he serves a god who is willing to forgiveAnyone of anything if that person comes to him in repentance and faithDavid knows that he shouldn't run away from the one who is readyto embrace himIf you have not yet turned from your sin and trusted in christ, what are you waiting for?I have to be honest with youYou are not a good personI am not a good personYou may not have ordered a hit on someone else like david, but you are just as guilty as him ofPerversion, iniquity, and sinYou have rebelled against god's rightful rule and authorityYou have perverted how life should be livedYou have fallen away short of god's perfect and holy standardYou are far more wicked than you could possibly understandBut god is far more gracious than you could ever imagineGod wants to show you mercyHe doesn't want to give you what you deserve, which is eternal punishment in hellGod wants to give you what you don't deserve, which is graceEternal joy in heavenGod wants to show you his steadfast love and his abundant mercyHe wants to blot out your transgressions and erase all record of your evil deedsHe wants to wash you thoroughly of your iniquity and cleanse you of all your sinBut god will only do those things if you ask him toIf you humble yourself before him like david and make no excuses for your evil desires and decisionsYour heart problem may be that your heart is spiritually deadIt needs to be brought to new life in christIf that's the case confess your sin for the very first time and plead for christ's forgiveness and he willGive it to youHe will fix your heart problemHe will give you the solution which is faith in jesus christ and what he achieved by dying on the cross and rising againPlease don't let your pride keep you from the abundantMercy and steadfast love of godWhy should i confess from my heart?Reason number two because my sin insults godBecause my sin insults godDavid goes even deeper in verses three through six to reveal why his sin and your sinIs such a big deal. Let's read that together for i know my transgressions and my sin is ever before meAgainst you you only have i sinned and done what is evil in your sightSo that you may be justified in your words and blameless in your judgmentsBehold i was brought forth in iniquity and incended my mother conceived meBehold you delight in truth in the inward being and you teach me wisdomin the secret heartDavid has a constant reminder of his affair and murder right in front of him all the timeIn the form of bashebaI think that's one of the reasons why he says my sin is ever before meEvery single time he sees basheba. He remembers that he took her when she didn't belong to himAnd he ended the life of her first husband uraya who was a man of great integrityYes, he wronged this woman. Yes, he wronged her husband, but they're not the ones that david is most concerned about wrongingListen again to verse four against you. You only have i sinned and done what is evil in your sightWho is david most concerned about wronging?The lordNo one matters more than god. So offending him matters more than offending anyone elseEvery sinful thought every sinful word action inaction reaction is an insult to godIt is a slap in his faceAnd this inescapable reality is highlighted when the lord asks a direct question to david through the prophet nathanIn second sancton 12 9Why have you despised the word of the lord to do what is evil in his sight?In the following verse god says that david didn't just despise his word. He despised himWhen you take the word lightly you take god lightlyWhen you disobeyGod's wordYou disobey the one who spoke it into existenceChristians in the room and watching onlineI want you to understand what you communicate to god when you choose to do something that you know you shouldn'tOr you fail to do something that you know you shouldYou are telling god. I love this sin more than I love youWhen you click that link and watch that pornographic video you are telling god. I'd rather look at this than behold you in your wordWhen you gossip and slander you're telling god. I care more about other people think about me than what you think about meWhen you lie and cover your tracks you are telling god. I care way more about my comfortThan honoring youWhen you intentionally disrespect your husbandOr selflessly dishonor your wifeYou are telling god. I'd rather do things my way than your wayin this marriageIn those moments you dismiss god and act like he is worth nothing to youHow insulting is that?If that view of your sin doesn't make you want to confess. I don't know what else to tell youWhen I am rude and disrespectful to my wife, we are still marriedMy bad behavior doesn't divorce or separate me from herIn that moment, but it does affect how close I feel to herAnd I can't enjoy that closeness that fellowship again until I confess to herHow I have wronged herIf you are a true believer in jesus christ, you confess to draw near to the lordIn fellowship to enjoy a closeness with him that you cannot enjoy when you were holding on to sin and refusing to let it goYou confess because you're already forgivenYou confess because you love god and are loved by godSo often we feel like god forsakes usBut he's not the one who forsakes youYou are the one who forsakes himThe hymn come now founten nails this on the headProne to wander lord. I feel it prone to leave the god I loveDoes that describe anyone else besides me this morning?Is your heart problem that you feel distant from the lord because you've been wandering off the path of his wordIf that's you admit that you've strayed because he already knows that you haveConfess that you need his help because god is well aware that you already need his helpDraw near to god and scripture promises that he will draw near to youWhy should I confess from my heart third reason because my heart needs renovationBecause my heart needs renovationInVerses seven through twelve david continues on with morePlease for god to wash him of what he has done and then he pops the hood so to speak and ask god to work on the engineof his heartPurge me with hissup and I shall be clean wash me and I shall be wider than snowLet me hear joy and gladness. Let the bones that you have broken rejoiceHide your face from my sins and blot out my iniquitiesCreate in me a clean heart. Oh god and renew a right spirit within meRestore to me the joy of your salvation and uphold me with the willing spiritDavid asked god to create in him a clean heartAnd that hebrew word for create is the same word used in genesis one one when god made everythingIn the beginning god created things that were not there to begin withHe did something brand newAnd david is asking him god do something brand new and me creating me something that doesn't existA heart that desires you a heart that would rather choose you than sinAnd david doesn't want this change to be a passing fad or a flash in the pan. He wants it to lastThat's why he says renew a right spirit within meUphold mewith the willing spiritIn other words god, don't let me be lazyDon't let me go back to business as usual. Let this change last for the rest of my daysHelp me to step into who you've created me to be instead of sliding back into who I used to beDavid understands that his life is a marathon not a sprintHe needs to focus on the long termNot just the short termAnd david says something in verse 11 that may have surprised youCast me not away from your presence and take not your holy spirit from meMaybe that verse unlocked a new fear within you and you're starting to wonder waitCan that actually happen? Can god take his spirit away from his people?You just said that god doesn't forsake his people. Aren't you contradicting yourself?Well, I don't have the time to fully explain the theology of this verseSo let me try to do my best in 90 seconds. You can even time me if you really want toIn the old testament the holy spirit did not live within god's peopleas he does todayInstead he would rush upon people and anoint them for specific tasks and rolesHe would empowerthe prophets the kingsJudges and others to say and do what god told them to say and doAnd one such man was king sallThe first king of visual he certainly looked the part. He was tall dark and handsome, but the problem was his heartHe had a heart problem that was never resolvedHe sinned he disobeyed but he didn't truly confess and repent as david wouldSo god took away his holy spirit from sallWhich also meant that he took away the throne from sall as wellAnd that's what david is thinking about in this verse god. Don't let me be another sallDon't take the throne away from me. Don't take your holy spirit and his help away from meBut if you are a follower of christ this side of the cross in the empty tombYou don't need to share this fear of davids because you are sealed and indwelt by the holy spiritHe has made you into a new creation and given you a changed heartThe holy spirit can never be taken away from you just as your salvation can never be taken away from youHow amazing it is to enjoy the blessings that david longed forA brand new heart and the constant presence the constant indwelling of the holy spiritBut you and i often take these blessings for granted don't weWe often take advantage of these blessings and acts as if we don't need to do anythingIn our personal journey of holinessLike david asked god to uphold you with a willing spiritTo maintain this heart that has been given to youYou know who likes new stuffA new car with a new car smellNew shoes that don't stink like a gym locker roomA new phone that can do one do stuff that your old one could nota new carHow about a new house that doesn't have the issues that your last one didAnd i think one of the reasons we like new stuff is that we think we can enjoy a break from maintenance and upkeepIs that trueThat's a really false hope that really goes away very quickly a new car can be trashed in a few daysIf you're not diligent in cleaning it outA new phone can be broken and shattered if you don't have a protective case in screen shieldNew shoes will look very old and gross if you don't spray them out every once in a while and clean the dust and the grime that accumulatesI want you to imagine that a wealthy friend has a brand new house built for you free of chargeThis house is state-of-the-art everything inside and outside the house looks fantasticBut how fantastic will that house look if you never cut the grassIf you never do any upkeep of any kind if you never keep up with ongoing renovationsAs the years pass byThat new house will not look new for very longThe same goes to the new heart that god has gifted to you it needs ongoing maintenance and renovationThis isn't a task you could do once a year really quickly. This is a 24/7 projectAnd we'll talk about this heart maintenance in even greater detail in two weeksBut for the time being I want you to understand that this heart maintenance includes personal time with the lord in prayer and in his wordParticipation in the life of the church not just attend attendanceParticipation in the life of the church and yes ongoing confession and repenting of sinIt's hard to maintain a car and keep it runningIt's hard to maintain a house and keep it looking presentableIt's way harder to maintain your heart and keep it dialed in to the lordWhat's the motivation for this difficult projectWhat keeps you on task on schedule on mission?Well, david gives us the answer in verse 12 restore to me the joy of your salvationYou will not continually maintain your heart if you are not continually blown away that you are saved in the first placeYou will not constantly confess to your father if you are not thrilled that you belong to himAnd you are a part of his familyThe moment you take your salvation for granted is the moment you stop growingIs the moment you stop making progress? It's like all the gas is siphoned out of your tankAre you running on empty in this current season of life?If so ask the lord to fill your tank ask him to restore to you the joy of your salvationAsk that you would once again celebrateThat your name is written in heaven and nothing and no one can scratch it outDo you know what the best thing about me is?That I belong to jesusAnd if you're a christian the best thing about you is that you belong to jesusDo you truly believe that this morning?Is that a truth that's on the forefront of your mind and fills your heart?If not ask god that it wouldBecause otherwise you're not going to grow and your heart problem will not be solvedWhy should I confess to my heart final reason because my worship and witness is hindered by hidden sinBecause my worship and witness is hindered by hidden sinLet's wrap up with verses 13 through 19Then I will teach transgressors your ways and sinners will return to youDeliver me from blood guiltiness. Oh god. Oh god of my salvation and my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousnessOh lord, open my lips and my mouth will declare your praiseFor you will not delight in sacrifice or I would give it you will not be pleased with the burnt offeringThe sacrifices of god are a broken spiritI'm broken in contrite heart. Oh god, you will not despiseDo good design and your good pleasure build up the walls of jesusThenWill you delight and write sacrifices and burn offerings and whole burn offerings then bulls will be offered on your altarDavid's heart is broken in contriteAs we studied a few months ago in the beatitudes david is poor in spirit and one who mourns over his sinDavid understands that his sin doesn't just affect himIt affects everyone in positions underneath of himIt affects everyone in israel as the nation goes as the king goes so goes the nationIn this section david isn't me focused. He is othersfocusedHe asked to be used for god's purposes. Listen again to verse 13 that I will teach transgressors your ways and sinners willreturn to youdavid wants to be a living testimony of god's grace and kindnessVerses 14 through 15 deliver me from blood guiltiness. Oh god. Oh god of my salvationAnd my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness. Oh lord open my lips and my mouth will declare your praiseDavid wants to demonstrate what it truly looks liketo holy worship godVerse 18 do good design and your good pleasure build up the walls of jr.David doesn't want to hoard all the blessing for himself. He wants jr.And all of israel to experience the blessing of god as wellDavid isn't interested in keeping his sin a secret any longerHe's ready to go public with it and one of the ways he does this is by writing this psalm that we are readingright nowThink about it. How many transgressors have been taught? How many sinners have returned to god because of this psalm?How many countless numbers of sins have been confessed because david gives us a clear example of how to do thisIn a godly way, but this wouldn't have happened if david kept his sin a secret and only confessed it to godConfession increased david's worship andstrengthened his witnessAnd the same can be true for you as wellconfession will increase your worshipand strengthen your witnessBut the problem is you often believe the exact oppositeYou think to yourself, I don't want to ruin my testimony. So I'll just keep my struggles to myselfI won't tell anyone about my failures except godThat is a horrible planThat plan is pride disguised as humilityThat plan is self-interest disguised as an outward focusPlease listen to me. There is only one sinless person in all of existenceAnd this person is without a doubt not you or meNo one will benefitFrom a false image of your fake perfectionPeople will only benefit from a true image of your genuine confessionHow many unbelievers could you point to the forgiveness of christ by sharing how you have experienced his forgivenessHow many fellow believers can you remind can you remind them of that?It is a good and godly thing to be transparent in the body of christYou can model that because so often we think this isn't a safe placeBut this should be the safest place to confess our sins and be honest with one anotherFor the rest of my life, I'll never forget one particular night at Geneva college during my freshman yearWhen my guy friends and I were completely honest with one another about what we struggled withAnd to a man we all admitted that we at one point had struggled with pornography useI'll never forget the looks on people's faces. Everyone was shocked. We were all amazed because each guy thought he was the only oneBecause that's how satan wanted us to feelaloneisolated selfcondemningNo one wants you to confess your sin less than satanHe doesn't want you to confess to godHe doesn't want you to confess to others because then you will receive loveAnd prayer that will help you to make those needed changesListen to james 516Therefore confess your sins to one another and pray for one anotherThat you may be healedIt is so healing to shine a light on what you've kept in the darkIt is so freeing to unearth what you've kept covered upIt is such a blessing to share what you have done to a person who is ready to build you upwith the truths of the gospelYou don't need to hide your sins any longer because god himself has already hidden his face from your sinAs we close let me ask you what sins are you so desperate to keep hidden?What are you holding on to and refusing to confess to god and to those who are willing to help you?Maybe it's a sexual sin of some kindMaybe it's a substance abuse problem. Maybe it's an anger issue or a pattern of lyingMaybe you've destroyed someone's reputation and they don't even know itMaybe it's an all-consuming worry that no one knows the full extent of besides you and godWhatever it is you can and should confess it to the lord and your loved ones todayNot next week when you've had more time to think about it because you're just going to talk yourself out of it in the meantimeNot when it's more easy and convenient. No, it's never going to be easy and convenient to confess your sin do it todayBut I know what some of you are thinking taylor you just don't get itIf I share this secret my life will be ruined. I'm going to hurt so many peopleWell over the past 10 years in ministry, I've had people confess some doozies to meAnd then to other people who need to knowAnd guess what it was hard. It was painful, but they survivedAnd most those people not only survive they are thriving right now. They are closer to god than ever beforeIf you don't plan to confess to godThat tells me that you may not truly understand his saving graceIf you don't plan to confess to others that tells me that you don't actually plan to changeYou should confess from your heart because god is ready to pour out his love and mercy upon youYou should confess from your heart because you shouldn't want to indulge in what insults godYou should confess from your heart because you are in desperate need of renovationYou should confess from your heart because hidden sin will shipwreck your worship of god and your witnessto everyoneThere is no better place to come and confess our sin in the table of the lord supperThis god-given meal reminds you of god'sGiven solution to your heart problemThe sacrifice of his one and only sonJesus christ came down from heavens that you could join him thereSomedayHis heart was set upon the cross so that your heart could be transformed and set to worship him foreverand everAs you come to the lord and communionwithhold nothing from himBecause he withholds nothing from youOur servers can now make their way forward as well as the worship teamYou don't need to belong to this church to take part in the lord supperBut you do need to belong to jesus christIf you have not yet confessed your sins and asked jesus to save you please remain seatedBut please don't just tune outPlease considerHow your sin has offended godHow it has hurt others and how it has damaged your own soulBut also find hope in the fact that you can lay those sinful burdens down at the foot of the crossAnd receive forgiveness today

What makes a man vanish into the woods—only to return as a predator? In this week's ReWired, Dani ventures into the haunted trailheads of the human psyche to unpack the chilling case of Gary Michael Hilton, a drifter-turned-serial killer whose victims were hikers, wanderers, and lovers of the wild. But this isn't just a rehash of his crimes—it's an excavation. We peel back the camouflage of Hilton's mind to explore:Why the wilderness became both his refuge and his hunting groundHow psychological detachment and transient identity fueled his violenceWhether a different intervention—or system—might have stopped himAnd the deeply unsettling question: was Hilton always a killer-in-waiting, or was he shaped by what we overlooked?Dani dissects the justice system's blind spots, the human cost of being ignored or misidentified, and the terrifying allure of the wilderness when survival turns sinister. This isn't just about murder in the mountains—it's about the cracks in society where monsters take root.✨ Plus, an unforgettable personal story from Dani's time in law enforcement—a haunting case that still lingers unsolved, echoing the same bystander indifference and missed chances.

Het gedicht The Story of Suicide Sal van Bonnie Parker - de grote liefde van Clyde Barrow - leest als een pulpverhaal uit de jaren '30: ruig, fatalistisch en doorspekt met de cynische wijsheid van iemand die weet dat het criminele leven geen happy endings kent. Maar het roept ook vragen op: Is Suicide Sal een fictief personage of Bonnie's alter ego? Probeerde Bonnie hiermee haar eigen situatie te verwerken, terwijl ze zich steeds dieper in een leven van misdaad begaf? Of was het een waarschuwing – misschien wel aan zichzelf – over hoe het allemaal zou eindigen?Patrick Bernauw schreef het script en vertelt het verhaal.

You are a man filled with integrity, one that is easy to trust and one that is deserving of such trust. I'm so grateful our travels brought us to Dalvik and for the joy in sharing a cup of coffee with you.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 14th of February, 2024, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Isaiah 40:28:“Have you not known?Have you not heard?The everlasting God, the Lord,The Creator of the ends of the earth,Neither faints nor is weary.His understanding is unsearchable.”Wow! He doesn't rest - He is awake, and He is waiting to hear you this morning, my dear friend. Then we go straight to the Book of Romans 11:34-35:“For who has known the mind of the Lord?Or who has become His counselor?”“Or who has first given to HimAnd it shall be repaid to him?”We can't give Him anything; He is God! No one, not even Albert Einstein, can know the mind of Christ. Now this Lord, this God, our God, He has a plan for you, and He has a plan for me. He says in 1 Corinthians 2:9: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,Nor have entered into the heart of manThe things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” What a beautiful promise! As a 15-year-old boy, in Central Zambia, a place called Kitwe, I remember sitting on an ant hill as a young boy, and I used to dream of preaching to multitudes of people about my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Oh, folks, it has happened. Yes, more than once. Please today, do not limit God. Dream your dream. He did it and He still is doing it for me, and He can do it for you too. Have a wonderful day,Jesus bless you and goodbye.

3. Myrrh: The Gift of a Lamb

Gifts of Christmas3. Myrrh: The Gift of a Lamb Dan Bidwell, Senior PastorIsaiah 53:3-7 18 December 2022 My wife, Joanna, was at her work Christmas party this week, and they each had to bring a gift for the White Elephant game, that game where you open a present but the next person can steal it if they like it more than their present. Anyway almost half the gifts were scented candles, so there was a lot of negotiating about who wanted French Oak, and White Bergamot, and Carmel Spice. So as we start, a question for the people sitting around you. If you could only burn one scented candle for the rest of your life what would it be? ~ I bring up scented candles because the Christmas gift were talking about today had one use as a perfume. Over these three weeks leading into Christmas, we are thinking about the gifts that the Wise Men brought Jesus gold, frankincense and myrrh. And particularly the significance of the gift, beyond just being valuable and useful. Last week we talked about frankincense, which was a gift pointing to Jesus as the High Priest. Today we are going to talk about the gift of myrrh. So what do you do with a gift of myrrh? What was myrrh was used for? It's unusual one again. Myrrh is actually quite similar to frankincense. It's another aromatic resin. Like frankincense, myrrh comes from a tree that grows in the Arabian Peninsula. It grows on a bush with lots of thorns and they cut the bark and the sap comes out and they use that to make the myrrh. In the ancient world it was used as an antiseptic, and even today apparently myrrh is used in some mouthwash and toothpaste. It's also used as a light analgesic to relieve pain from small injuries, or mixed into a topical skin product that you can rub on bruises and sore muscles. The word in the original language means bitter. Compared to a frankincense which has a very sweet smell, apparently myrrh smells kind of woody and earthy but a little bit medicinal. But it was also used as a perfume. And as you read through the Bible, myrrh is mentioned 17 times, about 10 of those references are in the Song of Songs where myrrh is described almost like an aphrodisiac. But when you come to the crucifixion scene of Jesus, myrrh is referred to twice for a different purpose. Look Mark 15:22-24 22 They brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha (which means the place of the skull). 23 Then they offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it. 24 And they crucified him. (Mark 15:22-24) They were offering Jesus this wine mixed with myrrh as a kind of pain reliever to help him with the pain before they crucified him. But Jesus wouldn't take it. We assume that Jesus wanted to be completely lucid as he went to his death. And then after his death we see myrrh again in John chapter 19 at verse 38 38 Later, Joseph of Arimathea asked Pilate for the body of Jesus. Now Joseph was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly because he feared the Jewish leaders. With Pilates permission, he came and took the body away. 39 He was accompanied by Nicodemus, the man who earlier had visited Jesus at night. Nicodemus brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds. 40 Taking Jesus body, the two of them wrapped it, with the spices, in strips of linen. This was in accordance with Jewish burial customs.41 At the place where Jesus was crucified, there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had ever been laid. 42 Because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and since the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.(John 19:38-42) Myrrh plays this big role in the crucifixion scene of Jesus. And so when we think about the significance of this gift to the baby Jesus, the gift of myrrh actually points forward to the end of his life. There's a kind of tragic irony that this gift given to Jesus at birth becomes the same thing that he's wrapped in in his death. One commentator wrote: the die is cast early in Jesus life, pointing ahead to an early death. So why do I bring this up as a Christmas sermon? I've been asking myself the same thing. Well partly because the wise men brought this as a gift to Jesus. And partly because we cant separate Jesus the baby from Jesus the savior. I think God intended this gift to remind us that the die was cast but not by the Wise Mens gifts. The die was cast by God, in a plan that was announced some 700 years before the birth of Jesus. And so Ive called the sermon today: the gift of a lamb, based in Isaiah 53:6. 6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way;and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. (Isaiah 53:6) But why dont we pray that God would teach us now, as we open the Bible. Heavenly Father, will you speak to us today as we open your word. Will you teach us about your son Jesus, and his significance in our lives. Will you grow us in faith, trust and obedience to him. In Jesus name we pray. Amen 1. The Gift of a Lamb I want to start by talking about sheep. As an Australian I grew up seeing sheep in fields. Thats because Australia has almost 3 sheep for every human. 25 million people, 70 million sheep. (Only 5 million sheep in the US explains the price of lamb!) Sheep are not very clever. Sheep are one of the only animals that need a shepherd. Most animals can manage themselves in the fields but sheep need protection. The mainly stick together in a flock, but occasionally a sheep will wander off on its own (just like in the Bible stories). Even when sheep are together, if wolves come, or if a bear comes, or if a lion comes, the sheep just huddle together and hope that they are not the one who gets eaten. And thats why they need a shepherd. Sheep are not very clever. There was a story from 2005 somewhere in Turkey where 1500 sheep wandered off a cliff together. Only 400 died because the first 400 made a big pillow for the other sheep. Back in Australia we have friends who are sheep farmers. One day we were on their farm, driving through the fields, and we approached the dam (which I think you call a pond or water reservoir). Anyway it was a very dry year and most of the water had evaporated out of the dam so there was thick mud. And there's this sheep up to his neck in mud, completely stuck. There's no way he could move and so my friend takes off his boots and he just had to wade in and drag his sheep out to safety. Thats what shepherds will do for the sake of the sheep. They go to rescue the one, because they're all valuable. So sheep get themselves into trouble. And Isaiah 53 six says we are all like sheep. We all wander off. We all go astray. We to go our own way. We turn to whatever we feel like doing. And just like sheep end up in danger, we end up in danger. We're endangered by what we do, and where we walk, and where we go, when we wander away from God. But the problem is we're different from sheep. Unlike sheep, were not stupid or innocent in our wandering. This is made very clear in verse 6, where it says our wandering results in iniquity. Iniquity is one of those strange words from the Bible. It means something like gross injustice or wickedness. So our wandering is not trivial. Its actually something that's very offensive to God. Another definition of iniquity is something that is disrespectful. Our wandering away from God is disrespectful to him. We talked about that last week as sin. And so God tells us in Isaiah 53:6 that we wander away from Him into gross injustice, wickedness, and sin that leaves us open to death. But here's the gift in v7: And the Lord has laid on himThe iniquity of us all (Isaiah 53:7) God lays our iniquity, he lays our wickedness, he lays our sin and he lays our wandering unto Jesus. And a couple of verses later in v10 it will say that the Lord makes his life an offering for sin, and in v12 that he bears our sin. Thats why we keep the cross in the church all year long. This feels like an Easter sermon but the cross reminds us that Jesus death is the reason that we're forgiven, and the cross is where Jesus takes on our sin. In 2 Corinthians 5:21 it says God made him who had no sin to be sin for us so that in him we might become the righteousness of God (2 Corinthians 5:21) There's this great exchange that happens. Jesus takes on our sin so that we can become righteousness. Isaiah describes how it happens in verses 5 to 7. BTW remember this is a prophecy that was written 700 years before the birth of Jesus. Look at vv5-7: it says He was pierced for our transgressions Do you remember when Jesus had died on the cross, the soldiers pierced his side with a spear. He was crushed for iniquities I think of the way the soldiers beat Jesus, how they mocked him, how they scourged him with whips And the punishment that brought us peace was upon him Jesus allowed himself to be punished. Punished in our place. He was wounded: And by his wounds we are healed. And then if you have a look at verse 7: 7 He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth;he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth. Jesus goes to the cross like a lamb, and we're like sheep and wander away. So Jesus becomes a sheep for us. We wander, and he becomes a sheep, he becomes a lamb in our place. Last week we saw that Jesus was the high priest. This week we've seen that Jesus is not only the high priest but also the sacrificial lamb. At the beginning of John's gospel, when John the Baptist sees Jesus in chapter 1, he says: Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world! (John 1:29) And again were reminded of the Passover when God asked his people to kill a lamb and paint the blood on the doors. This lamb that would mean that God's wrath would pass over his people, that Gods wrath is averted, that God's judgment won't fall on us. The lamb protects Gods people. So thats why our first gift is the gift of a lamb. The myrrh reminds us that Jesus will die for us, so that we can be saved. 2. The Gift of Peace Here's the bigger gift. Maybe not the bigger gift, but here's the gift that you get to open today. And its the gift of peace. You know the holiday season is meant to be a season of love and joy and hope and peace; and that everything is supposed to be merry and bright, and holly and jolly. But the older that we get, the more we realize that Christmas is not always holly and jolly. It's not always full of love and joy and peace and hope. Sometimes it feels the opposite. It might be filled with sorrow or hurt or turmoil or despair or hopelessness. For some of us this might be one of the first Christmases after a loved one has passed. Or it might be a number of years, but still the holidays remind you of what you're missing. For some it's divorce. For some it's estrangement with your kids. For others it's illness or mental health. The holidays often bring back the feeling that something is missing, and that it is not all love and joy and peace and hope and holly and jolly and happy and merry. And you're not alone. If you feel that, you're not alone. Actually Jesus understands your pain. And Jesus understands your pain because (and this I think was what was missing in the sermon last week) because when Jesus comes to earth, he is God in human flesh. God the son steps down out of heaven, and he steps into our world, and he steps into our pain, and he steps into our suffering, and he bears our suffering. Have a look at v4 there in Isaiah 53: Surely he took up our painAnd bore our suffering (Isaiah 53:4) Jesus takes up our pain and he bears our suffering. He entered into our pain so that he could deal with the root source of our pain. He came to deal with sin. So many people think that sin is not very important. But sin is the root cause of all of the pain and all of the sorrow and all of the suffering that we experience on earth. It's the root cause of death. Sin is behind it all. Sin is like a decay that goes all the way through creation, and until it's dealt with, we'll always have sorrow and suffering and pain. We'll have moments of peace and joy and hope and love, but it will always tempered with moments of pain. But Jesus deals with this problem of sin by taking the only course of treatment that can deal with sin. Jesus takes all of the pain, and takes all of the suffering, and he takes all of its effects and he takes them upon himself until sin is exhausted, until there's no more power of sin and Jesus lays dead. He dies from bearing sin. It kills him. And then hes embalmed in the spice that was the same gift that he received as a baby. I think this was a film, the director would do a flashback to the motif of myrrh, and you would go oh wow I see what happened. Theres a tragic irony in the myrrh. But the biggest surprise, of course, is that Jesus death isnt a tragedy. His death isnt the end of the story. Because we know that three days later Jesus rises to life and the grave clothes are abandoned and the myrrh is left behind because they arent needed in a world where Jesus is. Jesus rising to life shows that the grave is no longer the ending of the story. It tells us that in a world with Jesus, pain won't always have the last word in your life, and suffering won't always have the last word because on the cross Jesus says it is finished. It's finished. Sin is dealt with and we can find peace. Look at v5 The punishment that brought us peace was on himAnd by his wounds we are healed Because of Jesus death we find peace. Not World Peace or the absence of all conflict. Not that kind of peace, not yet anyway. What we find is deep peace with God, knowing that our sins are dealt with, that we'll be with him forever. And by his wounds we find healing. We find healing and forgiveness and the promise of justice. That the things that have hurt us will one day be dealt with. And for the hurts that we have caused others, his promise is that we will find forgiveness, and that peace will be restored one day I love that promise going into the holiday season when so many of our relationships are wounded in one way or another. Jesus promises peace, perhaps not perfectly in this lifetime, but in his kingdom which lasts forever. In that world, there will there be no more suffering and no more tears and no more death and no more pain because the old order has passed away, because Jesus dealt with it as the lamb. And that means right now in the midst of our pain and in the midst of our suffering, we don't need to suffer without purpose. We don't need to suffer without hope. In fact we can look forward to the end of it, to something better. And in the middle of our pain and our suffering, even as it happens, we can point ourselves to Jesus, and we can point others to Jesus, to the hope of healing and peace. The gift of a lamb really changes our story. It means that even if you're having a difficult year, Christmas can be full of peace and healing and hope. And that's the hope that we find in the gift of myrrh. We find a lamb who dies a sacrificial death on our behalf, so that we can find peace and healing. Shall we pray? Heavenly father we thank you for this message of healing and hope thank you for the gift of the lamb and this little spice called myrrh that points us to Jesus death and resurrection. We pray that you would fill our hearts with resurrection hope, that you would be with us in our suffering and in our sorrow. We pray that you would bring us joy and healing and peace. We pray that we would be able to point others to Jesus and to healing and hope in him as well. We ask you to be with those who are missing a loved one this year, with those who are facing family troubles, with all who are suffering from illness and loneliness. Help us to bring healing and peace into those situations, wherever we might find ourselves this Christmas. And Father, we pray for all our Christmas services: for the concert tonight, for the traditional service on Tuesday, for our Christmas Eve services and our Christmas Day service. We pray that you would fill this house with people who need to hear about the hope of Jesus. We ask you to provide everything we need, so that in all things we bring glory to the Lamb, Jesus our savior. Jesus, we praise you, and we honor you, and we thank you for your gifts to us, at Christmas and everyday. In your saving name we pray. Amen

https://youtu.be/N3YTiW-AhM8 Intro story- when I was called I knew what the Lord wanted of me I couldn't explain why I knew I just did The call on my life was evident and I could feel it in my spirit I don't know if it was fear Or selfishness maybe I wanted to be in control of my life So I rebelled against the word the Lord had given me I lived a life of complete disobedience to the Lord I kept running away, far away I became worse than I had previously been Even though I tried whatever I could to run I knew ultimately that I should submit to God and follow the call He placed on me It took years, I think about 12 years later I finally submitted to His will and not my own Romans 11:25-36 25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own [a]opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And so all Israel will be [b]saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come out of Zion,And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;27 For this is My covenant with them,When I take away their sins.” 28 Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. 29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. 30 For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience, 31 even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy. 32 For God has [c]committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all. 33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out! 34 “For who has known the mind of the Lord?Or who has become His counselor?”35 “Or who has first given to HimAnd it shall be repaid to him?” 36 For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen. We are wrapping up chapter 11 The main verse I will be focusing on is verse 29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. But before I get into that I want to give biblical context to what paul was speaking about Im going to give a quick recap of chapters 9-11 because they all tie together to give the overall them of these 3 chapters Paul talked about Israel's rejection of Christ and Gods purpose Israel's rejection and Gods justice, Paul discussed the present condition of Israel and that they were in desperate need of the Gospel Only to have Israel reject the gospel and the Messiah they had all been waiting on But there is still hope because Israels rejection is not total and it is not final God is coming back for His remnant Which brings us to where we are now Paul is speaking to jews and gentiles Romans 11:25-28 25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own [a]opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And so all Israel will be [b]saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come out of Zion,And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;27 For this is My covenant with them,When I take away their sins.” 28 Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.  Paul is showing both jew and gentile that they are both important to Gods plan So that way neither of them could boast that the other was more important Out of Israels rejection and disobedience to God, it allowed Him to open the door for the gentiles to be saved, graphed , and adopted into the kingdom of heaven Because of their disobedience the gentiles were also called to God We are now able to have the same privilege that was initially for the jews

https://youtu.be/N3YTiW-AhM8 Intro story- when I was called I knew what the Lord wanted of me I couldn't explain why I knew I just did The call on my life was evident and I could feel it in my spirit I don't know if it was fear Or selfishness maybe I wanted to be in control of my life So I rebelled against the word the Lord had given me I lived a life of complete disobedience to the Lord I kept running away, far away I became worse than I had previously been Even though I tried whatever I could to run I knew ultimately that I should submit to God and follow the call He placed on me It took years, I think about 12 years later I finally submitted to His will and not my own Romans 11:25-36 25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own [a]opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And so all Israel will be [b]saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come out of Zion,And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;27 For this is My covenant with them,When I take away their sins.” 28 Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. 29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. 30 For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience, 31 even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy. 32 For God has [c]committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all. 33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out! 34 “For who has known the mind of the Lord?Or who has become His counselor?”35 “Or who has first given to HimAnd it shall be repaid to him?” 36 For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen. We are wrapping up chapter 11 The main verse I will be focusing on is verse 29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. But before I get into that I want to give biblical context to what paul was speaking about Im going to give a quick recap of chapters 9-11 because they all tie together to give the overall them of these 3 chapters Paul talked about Israel's rejection of Christ and Gods purpose Israel's rejection and Gods justice, Paul discussed the present condition of Israel and that they were in desperate need of the Gospel Only to have Israel reject the gospel and the Messiah they had all been waiting on But there is still hope because Israels rejection is not total and it is not final God is coming back for His remnant Which brings us to where we are now Paul is speaking to jews and gentiles Romans 11:25-28 25 For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own [a]opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And so all Israel will be [b]saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come out of Zion,And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;27 For this is My covenant with them,When I take away their sins.” 28 Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.  Paul is showing both jew and gentile that they are both important to Gods plan So that way neither of them could boast that the other was more important Out of Israels rejection and disobedience to God, it allowed Him to open the door for the gentiles to be saved, graphed , and adopted into the kingdom of heaven Because of their disobedience the gentiles were also called to God We are now able to have the same privilege that was initially for the jews
