Chapter 9 - The Half-Blood PrinceHermione's remonstration was drowned by a loud giggle; Lavender Brown had apparently found Ron's remark highly amusing. She continued to laugh as she passed them, glancing back at Ron over her shoulder. Ron looked rather pleased with himself.Q1 - Does Lavender like Ron?‘Humph,' snorted Professor McGonagall. ‘It's high time your grandmother learned to be proud of the grandson she's got, rather than the one she thinks she ought to have – particularly after what happened at the Ministry.'Q2 - Do you ever think McGonagall could go bad?Q3 - Do you think Gryffindor will win the Quidditch Cup this year?Snape set off around the edge of the room, speaking now in a lower voice; the class craned their necks to keep him in view. ‘The Dark Arts,' said Snape, ‘are many, varied, ever-changing and eternal. Fighting them is like fighting a many-headed monster, which, each time a neck is severed, sprouts a head even fiercer and cleverer than before. You are fighting that which is unfixed, mutating, indestructible.' Harry stared at Snape. It was surely one thing to respect the Dark Arts as a dangerous enemy, another to speak of them, as Snape was doing, with a loving caress in his voice?His Shield Charm was so strong Snape was knocked off-balance and hit a desk. The whole class had looked round and now watched as Snape righted himself, scowling. ‘Do you remember me telling you we are practicing non-verbal spells, Potter?' ‘Yes,' said Harry stiffly. ‘Yes sir.' ‘There's no need to call me “sir”, Professor.'Q4 - Do you view Harry as a better wizard than Snape?This left Harry, Ron and Hermione to share a table with Ernie. They chose the one nearest a gold-coloured cauldron that was emitting one of the most seductive scents Harry had ever inhaled: somehow it reminded him simultaneously of treacle tart, the woody smell of a broomstick handle and something flowery he thought he might have smelled at The Burrow. He found that he was breathing very slowly and deeply and that the potion's fumes seemed to be filling him up like drink. A great contentment stole over him; he grinned across at Ron, who grinned lazily back.Q5 - What do you think of the Amortentia?It's supposed to smell differently to each of us, according to what attracts us, and I can smell freshly mown grass and new parchment and –' But she turned slightly pink and did not complete the sentence.Q6 - What is the last smell Hermione smells?‘No, I don't think so, sir. I'm Muggle-born, you see.' Harry saw Malfoy lean close to Nott and whisper something; both of them sniggered, but Slughorn showed no dismay; on the contrary, he beamed and looked from Hermione to Harry, who was sitting next to her. ‘Oho! “One of my best friends is Muggle-born and she's the best in our year!” I'm assuming this is the very friend of whom you spoke, Harry?' ‘Yes, sir,' said Harry. ‘Well, well, take twenty well-earned points for Gryffindor, Miss Granger,' said Slughorn genially.Q7 - Is Slughorn growing on you?‘Amortentia doesn't really create love, of course. It is impossible to manufacture or imitate love. No, this will simply cause a powerful infatuation or obsession. It is probably the most dangerous and powerful potion in this room – oh yes,' he said, nodding gravely at Malfoy and Nott, both of whom were smirking skeptically. ‘When you have seen as much of life as I have, you will not underestimate the power of obsessive love …Q8 - What do you think of this line?Q9 - What do you think of Liquid Luck?Q10 - What is a time when you beat everyone in class at something?‘The clear winner!' he cried to the dungeon. ‘Excellent, excellent, Harry! Good Lord, it's clear you've inherited your mother's talent, she was a dab hand at Potions, Lily was! Here you are, then, here you are – one bottle of Felix Felicis, as promised, and use it well!'Nobody else was looking. Harry bent low to retrieve the book and, as he did so, he saw something scribbled along the bottom of the back cover in the same small, cramped handwriting as the instructions that had won him his bottle of Felix Felicis, now safely hidden inside a pair of socks in his trunk upstairs. This Book is the Property of the Half-Blood PrinceQ11 - Who is the Half-Blood Prince?Chapter 10 - The House of GauntQ1 - Should Harry be following the book's advice?Q2 - What do you think of Snape and Slughorn in their roles?‘Well, I have decided that it is time, now that you know what prompted Lord Voldemort to try and kill you fifteen years ago, for you to be given certain information.'Q3 - Jenn, did your heart rate go up here?‘I told you everything I know. From this point forth, we shall be leaving the firm foundation of fact and journeying together through the murky marshes of memory into thickets of wildest guesswork. From hereon in, Harry, I may be as woefully wrong as Humphrey Belcher, who believed the time was ripe for a cheese cauldron.'Q4 - Where have you seen Little Hangleton before?There was a scuffling noise in the corner beside the open window and Harry realized that there was somebody else in the room, a girl whose ragged gray dress was the exact color of the dirty stone wall behind her. She was standing beside a steaming pot on a grimy black stove, and was fiddling around with the shelf of squalid-looking pots and pans above it. Her hair was lank and dull and she had a plain, pale, rather heavy face. Her eyes, like her brother's, stared in opposite directions. She looked a little cleaner than the two men, but Harry thought he had never seen a more defeated-looking person.Q5 - What do you think of Merope and Morfin?Q6 - Is a Squib made from abuse?Q7 - What do you think of Tom Riddle's origin story?‘Sir … is it important to know all this about Voldemort's past?' ‘Very important, I think,' said Dumbledore. ‘And it … it's got something to do with the prophecy?' ‘It has everything to do with the prophecy.'Q8 - Why is this important?Q9 - What is the ring and what happened to Dumbledore's hand?Chapter 11 - Hermione's Helping HandNon-verbal spells were now expected, not only in Defence Against the Dark Arts, but in Charms and Transfiguration too. Harry frequently looked over at his classmates in the common room or at mealtimes to see them purple in the face and straining as though they had overdosed on U-No-Poo.‘We've got to go and explain,' said Hermione, looking up at Hagrid's huge empty chair at the staff table the following Saturday at breakfast. ‘We've got Quidditch tryouts this morning!' said Ron. ‘And we're supposed to be practicing that Aguamenti charm for Flitwick! Anyway, explain what? How are we going to tell him we hated his stupid subject?'Q1 - What is the Aguamenti charm?Q2 - Is Hagrid childish for this?‘Oh, come on, Harry,' said Hermione, suddenly impatient. ‘It's not Quidditch that's popular, it's you! You've never been more interesting and, frankly, you've never been more fanciable.' Ron gagged on a large piece of kipper. Hermione spared him one look of disdain before turning back to Harry.Q3 - Why is Ron gagging?Q4 - Harry mentioned he hoped Lupin would write…why doesn't Lupin write?Q5 - Do you think Stan Shunpike is a Death Eater?‘People are terrified – you know the Patil twins' parents want them to go home? And Eloise Midgeon has already been withdrawn. Her father picked her up last night.'Q6 - If you had kids, would you take them out of Hogwarts?Q7 - Dumbledore is gone missing a lot…what is he doing?Q8 - How do you think this years Gryffindor quidditch team looks?Q9 - What do you think about Hermione confounding Cormac?‘But how can he have done, Harry?' said Hermione, putting down the newspaper with a surprised look. ‘We were all searched when we arrived, weren't we?' ‘Were you?' said Harry, taken aback. ‘I wasn't!' ‘Oh no, of course you weren't, I forgot you were late … well, Filch ran over all of us with Secrecy Sensors when we got into the Entrance Hall. Any Dark object would have been found, I know for a fact Crabbe had a shrunken head confiscated. So you see, Malfoy can't have brought in anything dangerous!'Q10 - What was this Shrunken head? And did Malfoy sneak anything in?Q11 - What's the best party you've ever been to?Chapter 12 - Silver and OpalsWhere was Dumbledore and what was he doing?Q1 - Where was Dumbledore and what was he doing?Q2 - Is the Half-Blood Prince a dark person?Harry rather doubted he would be able to bring off this particular spell; he was still having difficulty with non-verbal spells, something Snape had been quick to comment on in every DADA class. On the other hand, the Prince had proved a much more effective teacher than Snape so far.Q3 - Do you think Snape really is a good teacher and Harry is just blinded?Q4 - Is Harry dumb to be practicing these spells on his friends?Q5 - Harry thinks that the Prince could be his dad, do you think he's right?Harry had pinned Mundungus against the wall of the pub by the throat. Holding him fast with one hand, he pulled out his wand. ‘Harry!' squealed Hermione. ‘You took that from Sirius's house,' said Harry, who was almost nose-to-nose with Mundungus and was breathing in an unpleasant smell of old tobacco and spirits. ‘That had the Black family crest on it.'Q6 - What is Mundungus stealing from the Black house?At once, Katie rose into the air, not as Ron had done, suspended comically by the ankle, but gracefully, her arms outstretched, as though she were about to fly. Yet there was something wrong, something eerie … her hair was whipped around her by the fierce wind, but her eyes were closed and her face was quite empty of expression. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Leanne had all halted in their tracks, watching. Then, six feet above the ground, Katie let out a terrible scream. Her eyes flew open but whatever she could see, or whatever she was feeling, was clearly causing her terrible anguish. She screamed and screamed; Leanne started to scream too, and seized Katie's ankles, trying to tug her back to the ground. Harry, Ron and Hermione rushed forwards to help, but even as they grabbed Katie's legs, she fell on top of them; Harry and Ron managed to catch her but she was writhing so much they could hardly hold her. Instead they lowered her to the ground where she thrashed and screamed, apparently unable to recognise any of them.Q7 - What kind of magic is this?Q8 - What's the worst amount of pain you've ever been in?Q9 - Why would someone want to curse an object? What else do you think you could do with objects in the wizarding world?Q10 - Who gave Katie the necklace and where was Katie delivering it?

“The Magnificent Story” is about Jesus. We cover chapters 1 AND 2 this week. A few synonyms of “magnificent” include “wonderful, splendid, glorious, brilliant, stunning, grand, marvelous, and superb.” People came to Jesus in physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual brokenness and pain. For many reasons they were living with shrunken narratives. Romans 3:23 says we all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory. Our stories have been shrunken because of sin. We need to be redeemed. Our stories and our understanding of the gospel need to be enlarged. Jesus constantly amazed people with His healing and teaching ministry. This entire study is about trading our shrunken stories to finding new life in Him. Jesus constantly invited and welcomed various people in: He LOVED children, women, lepers, demoniacs, tax collectors, outcasts, Samaritans, and all sorts of sinners (including the religious ones). Nobody had ever known a person like Jesus. Note in our readings how people responded to Jesus' grace, love, and forgiveness. He was not mean or hateful. He did not boss or bully. He did not compromise compassion or Scripture. His story is one of beauty, goodness, and truth. If you have not formed or joined a “Magnificent Story” small group, it is not too late. We can help.

Our journey through the Gospel According to Mark continues this morning with a step forward into a new subsection of the Gospel that will carry us through the end of Chapter 12. Jesus and his followers and the twelve have arrived in Jerusalem.We saw in our text last week, how Jesus gives us a real-life parable, as he curses a fig tree, cleanses the money changers and robbers from the temple, and then the next morning, the cursed fig tree is withered up. Mark envelops the account of Jesus clearing the temple with this story of the fig tree. I mentioned last week how, throughout scripture, that imagery of the fig tree represents Israel -- and, specifically in the context of Mark's Gospel, it represents the temple and all that is associated with it. Jesus announces his judgment against the temple because it was all leaves and no meaningful fruit. It was all show and no substance. The purpose of the sacrificial system was to point the people forward to the Lamb of God who would come to die for the sin of the world. Jesus makes clear for us that the entirety of the Old Testament is pointing forward to him -- bearing witness to what he would come to accomplish. And so Jesus brings judgment against Israel, and specifically the temple activities because they weren't fulfilling the purpose for which God designed them. The entire purpose of their existence was right in front of them and they failed to recognize him. And it is the temple, and the system that surrounds it, that will be the setting of a series of seven conflicts that will take place between chapter 11:27 and the end of chapter 12. These conflicts will occur between Jesus and the temple authorities, the Pharisees, the Herodians, the Sadducees, and the scribes. We might say that in this section, Jesus shifts his target from Israel and the temple, to the religious leaders specifically. In this era in history, the Jewish people were ruled by what is called the Sanhedrin. This was the Jewish ruling council and was composed of representatives from the two major religious parties -- the Pharisees and the Sadducees. And it usually consisted of 70 men -- and was led by the High Priest, who, at least during the New Testament period, served as president of the Sanhedrin. This isn't talked about explicitly at this point in the gospel, but it's helpful to know this backdrop as we discuss this series of conflicts over the coming week, and as we then step deeper into the events of Jesus' arrest and crucifixion later in the gospel. Well with that background and context, would you stand as I read our sermon text for today from Mark 11:27 - Mark 12:12. Just a warning -- this passage is longer than I would prefer to handle in one helping -- but I think it's preferable, because these passages really are one encounter, to handle them as a whole.Starting in Mark 11:27:They arrived again in Jerusalem, and while Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders came to him. 28 “By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave you authority to do this?”29 Jesus replied, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 30 John's baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin? Tell me!”31 They discussed it among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,' he will ask, ‘Then why didn't you believe him?' 32 But if we say, ‘Of human origin' …” (They feared the people, for everyone held that John really was a prophet.)33 So they answered Jesus, “We don't know.”Jesus said, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”12 Jesus then began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a pit for the winepress and built a watchtower. Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place. 2 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants to collect from them some of the fruit of the vineyard. 3 But they seized him, beat him and sent him away empty-handed. 4 Then he sent another servant to them; they struck this man on the head and treated him shamefully. 5 He sent still another, and that one they killed. He sent many others; some of them they beat, others they killed.6 “He had one left to send, a son, whom he loved. He sent him last of all, saying, ‘They will respect my son.'7 “But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.' 8 So they took him and killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.9 “What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others. 10 Haven't you read this passage of Scripture:“‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;11 the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?”12 Then the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders looked for a way to arrest him because they knew he had spoken the parable against them. But they were afraid of the crowd; so they left him and went away.God, your word is true. We believe it. We acknowledge and confess your authority in all things -- in faith and in life. And so we ask you to speak. We submit ourselves to your word as authoritative and supreme over all things, including over our own wills and desires. Convict us of sin, lead us to the cross. Leave us resting in your grace to sinners. We pray in Jesus' name. Amen. As we work through this encounter between Jesus and the Jewish rulers, I want you to see:First, the Authority of Jesus is Questioned.V. 28 - “and they said to him, “By what authority are you doing these things, or who gave you this authority to do them?”This is not the first time in the Gospel that the authority of Jesus has been questioned, and it won't be the last time. The word that they use is a fairly common Biblical word. It shows up around 100 times in the New Testament. Let's do a little math -- the Bible that I use at my desk has 225 pages in the new testament. So -- on average, this word shows up once on every other page of the New Testament or so. That's a fairly high frequency.If you remember back to chapter 1 of this Gospel, Mark records for us that the people were amazed because Jesus was teaching “as one who had authority.” And, if you remember in chapter 3, verse 22, the scribes acknowledged Jesus' authority -- but they explained it away by saying that his authority came from Satan.There is an important denial that is part of their questioning of Jesus. V. 28 “who gave you authority to do this?” They are denying the divinity of Jesus -- and, I would argue that they are denying more than that. The assertion is not only that Jesus isn't God, but that he isn't FROM God and he doesn't speak with God's authority. This isn't the sort of passive rejection that we've seen from the disciples in the Gospel so far -- it's much more active than that. It's essentially saying, “We don't know who you are, but we know that you're not from God.”Before we get too critical of these folks, we must examine our own hearts. The reality is that if we are honest with ourselves, none of us really want to live under the authority of Jesus. None of us want to hear the things that Jesus has to say to us. If you doubt me, go back and read the account of Jesus' conversation with the rich young ruler in which Jesus says “sell everything, give to the poor, and then come follow me.” None of us like that because most of us have wealth that we don't like to admit causes us to place our trust somewhere other than in God alone. Or, if that doesn't do it for you, read the sermon on the mount, where Jesus calls you a murderer if you've spoken an angry and vindictive word against someone...and an adulterer if you've been guilty of lust. And if that still isn't enough, go back to last week and hear those words of the need for forgiveness -- if we want to be forgiven. And we could go on and on. None of us actually like to be under the authority of Jesus -- at least our sin nature doesn't. We like to prop up our righteousness -- like the Pharisee in Jesus' parable on humility in prayer -- we like to pray “Thank you God that I'm not like that person, or that person, or that person.” It's critical, not only that I notice the immediate context of this passage -- the Sanhedrin questioning the authority of Jesus -- but that I also recognize MY tendency to question the authority of Jesus. Perhaps not an active rejection, but a passive one. We may not say “who gave you the authority”, but instead just ignore his commission. Ignore his call to make disciples. Ignore his persistent reminder that his grace is sufficient. We may not question whether he has the right to do what he does, but instead, become so invested in the affairs of this world that we have no interest or urgency for eternal things. Seeing the denial of Jesus' authority by the religious leaders should never cause us to roll our eyes and laugh mockingly at their hard hearts -- it should always be humbling. It should serve as a wake-up call that if people who had significant chunks of the Torah memorized could reject the authority of God's son, My own sin can lead me to the same result. It should always drive me to self-examination and repentance, rather than pride. Well, now that we've discussed the interaction that leads to the parable, let's explore the parable itself. So, first, the authority of Jesus is questioned:Second, Jesus illustrates the actions of the Religious Leaders.Jesus uses a unique parable to reveal what these religious leaders are doing. I'm not sure if you've noticed it or not, but Mark's Gospel doesn't contain many parables, at least in comparison to Matthew or Luke. In fact, if I counted right, there are only two major parables contained in the gospel -- and then several minor parables that are probably more accurately described as lessons or examples. So what is the parable that Jesus tells?Starting in 12:1 - “A man planted a vineyard…” We will talk about this more in a minute, but suffice it to say that the vineyard represents Israel. We don't necessarily make the connection, but these learned Jews would certainly understand. Back to Verse 1 - He rented the vineyard to some farmers and moved to another place. So the man plants a vineyard, builds the infrastructure that was necessary like a watchtower and wine press -- and then leaves it and rents it out on shares. I should also mention that it becomes pretty obvious as we move through the parable that the man who owns the vineyard represents God in the story. When it's time to collect his share of the harvest, the owner sends his servant. And in verse 3 we see that the renters beat him up and send him away with nothing. So he sends another servant and they hit him over the head and treat him dishonorably. He goes back to the owner with his head wound and reports what happened. It's important to note that this is the point at which the parable ventures into absurdity. It's highly unlikely that a real vineyard owner would send a second servant if the first came back beat up and empty-handed. But CERTAINLY, he would never send a third servant. But, we see in verse 5 that this owner did just that -- and this third servant is killed. And the patient owner continues to send, Mark says, “many others.” Some were beaten, some killed. We have a train of casualties because of these greedy and self-focused renters. And this is where the parable takes an unexpected twist -- at least to our human eyes. But, let's be honest, “unexpected” isn't a strong enough word. This could only be called reckless. The tenant says to himself “surely they will respect my son. And so he sends his son and they kill him as well. Now, this is where understanding the cultural practice of land rent would be helpful. Renting out land was a common practice then, just as it is in our area today. The main difference is that if you were renting land and you died without an heir, the renter would likely inherit the property. In V. 7 they say “come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.” These bright Jewish minds might have jumped back to the story of Abraham and Isaac when they heard the phrase “beloved son.” Others in Jesus' company likely thought back to the words of the father at Jesus' baptism -- and on the Mount of Transfiguration. It is an absurd parable. We might find ourselves thinking “that's crazy, no tenant would be stupid enough to act like that -- and certainly no landowner would be that reckless so as to get his own son murdered.” And, of course, if that's our reaction, that is exactly Jesus' point. Truly the only thing more absurd than the parable is the fact that it all played out in real life. God, in his patience, sent prophets to warn and call the people to repentance, but Israel kept rejecting and wounding them. And when it seemed like God should probably just smite them all for what was done, he recklessly sent his beloved son. And, as expected, they had him killed. Jesus perfectly illustrates the actions of the religious leaders, and the patient and, dare we say, reckless Love of God. Jesus steps out of the parable with a question for those listening: What then will the owner of the vineyard do?The authority of Jesus is questioned,Jesus illustrates the actions of the religious leaders: and:Third, God pronounces his Judgement upon the Religious leaders because of their Unbelief. Verse 9 “What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.”It's important to realize that Jesus doesn't just pull this parable out of thin air. The imagery of a Vineyard representing Israel, or, perhaps, more accurately, the believing people of God, is well established. Listen to how the Prophet Isaiah spoke of this -- and I think you'll recognize almost all of the imagery that Jesus uses in his parable: Isaiah 5:1-7I will sing for the one I love a song about his vineyard:My loved one had a vineyard on a fertile hillside.2 He dug it up and cleared it of stones and planted it with the choicest vines.He built a watchtower in it and cut out a winepress as well.Then he looked for a crop of good grapes, but it yielded only bad fruit.3 “Now you dwellers in Jerusalem and people of Judah, judge between me and my vineyard.4 What more could have been done for my vineyard than I have done for it?When I looked for good grapes, why did it yield only bad?5 Now I will tell you what I am going to do to my vineyard:I will take away its hedge, and it will be destroyed;I will break down its wall, and it will be trampled.6 I will make it a wasteland, neither pruned nor cultivated, and briers and thorns will grow there.I will command the clouds not to rain on it.”7 The vineyard of the Lord Almighty is the nation of Israel,and the people of Judah are the vines he delighted in.And he looked for justice, but saw bloodshed; for righteousness, but heard cries of distress.I think it's safe to say that Jesus leans on Isaiah's prophecy for much of his parable. Now, you can't just take Isaiah and set it over top of the parable of the tenants and expect it to explain everything. But it does help us see the language and the imagery. It gives us a sense of what Jesus is doing. God was looking for a good crop -- for good fruit to come from his people -- but all he found was bad grapes. It's helpful imagery, isn't it? Have you ever gone to the produce drawer in the refrigerator, pulled out that bag of grapes, and realized that you left them in there a few days longer than you should? Shrunken, soggy, probably fermenting. Isaiah says that God was looking in Israel for good fruit but only found bad. And did you notice the reaction of the religious leaders? V. 12: Then the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders looked for a way to arrest him because they knew he had spoken the parable against them. But they were afraid of the crowd; so they left him and went away.”They want so badly to put an end to this disrespectful, backwackwards rabbi from Nazareth -- they want to shut him up.What the Sanhedrin can never understand is that Jesus is going to take their hatred of him, their rejection of his identity -- and he is going to use it to save the world. Jesus is going to use their rejection of him as the hammer that will nail him to the cross. Or to use Jesus' quote of Psalm 118 - “The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone…” Jesus would be the cornerstone of an eternal kingdom. You see, this is where the Sanhedrin and the disciples were both wrong. Both of them were thinking of Jesus and evaluating Jesus in terms of earthly power and authority. There is a fascinating conversation that happens between Jesus and his disciples in Acts 1 that makes this clear -- this is the very last recorded conversation with Jesus before he ascends into heaven:The disciples say: 6 Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?” Think about that question. Ok, Jesus, you died for the sin of the World, and God raised you from the dead, conquering sin, death, and satan. NOW CERTAINLY it must be time for you to get on with the work of restoring the kingdom to Israel. 7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” The disciples are still focused on Jesus as an earthly king. Short-sighted. Missing the big picture. And It's as if Jesus says “you're asking the wrong question.” The question isn't “when will the kingdom be set up in Israel, but, rather, ‘What is God at work doing next and what is my part in it?” And you can't blame the disciples -- they just watched what had happened to Jesus and they want to be rescued. They want Rome to be conquered and Jesus to establish his kingdom so that they won't suffer the same fate. I can't blame them for that at all. But God has another plan. The parable tells us that the vineyard owner isn't just going to destroy the tenants -- he's going to give the vineyard to others. Unlike Isaiah's prophecy when God comes and destroys the vineyard, making it a wasteland...Jesus says that he will simply destroy the tenants -- the renters -- those tasked with leading and caring for his kingdom -- and he will give it to others. These wicked tenants are the leaders of Israel. Those called to lead Israel into faithfulness but instead led them to fruitlessness. And, of course, as I mentioned last week, within a generation Roman armies would descend on Jerusalem and destroy the temple and scatter any semblance of what they had previously known. We might do well to think of John 1:11 - “He came to his own, and his own people did not receive him. But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.”Now, we want to be careful to have good theology -- to have a robust understanding of God. In the parable, God seems to be reactionary -- to be constantly just responding to the actions of the tenants. But we know that God foresaw all that would take place. God foreknew the rebellion and the hard hearts and the fruitlessness of Israel.God didn't send his son out of desperation like the vineyard owner -- but out of deep and steadfast love. For God so loved the WORLD, that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. This encounter with the religious leaders, and the Parable of condemnation that follows it, aren't just a message for the religious in the 1st Century -- but a call to repentance for you and me today.This message is intended to give us a glimpse, not only of the rebellion and fruitlessness and unbelief of those in Jerusalem but of us in Dickinson. God sent his son. And his son was rejected. And his son was killed. And God did bring about the destruction of those wicked tenants. And that's where this allegory in our text diverts from reality -- because the grand and unexpected plot twist in real life is that the Son doesn't stay dead. The vineyard owner, by his own authority and power, raises the son back to life. And here's the best part -- when the son rises from the dead, he makes available the promise of resurrection for all who will believe -- EVEN THOSE WHO KILLED HIM. You see, the Son wasn't just a helpless victim sent by a reckless land-owner. He was a willing sacrifice for the sins of the Jewish leader, for your sin, and mine. And so we rejoice today as recipients of the abundant grace and steadfast love of God. Jesus came offering something that the religious leaders of his day couldn't accept -- free, abundant, no-strings-attached, nothing-you-can-do-to-earn-it, amazing grace. As the old hymn says:Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,Freely bestowed on all who believe!And for millennia, people have been stumbling over this cornerstone because it seems too good to be true. Even many professing Christians can't believe that it's ALL by faith. That Jesus did it all. As Paul says, it's a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to gentiles. Just believe. Just receive. The son was sent by God -- the son died in your place -- the son rose again guaranteeing that you too might rise one day. Wherever you are at in your faith journey today, just repent and believe the Gospel. God, we are grateful for this encounter that Jesus has with the religious leaders, and the story that he tells that follows it. God, protect us from ever patting ourselves on the back for our faithfulness when we see examples of other's doubt and unbelief. Humble us, Lord. We know that we are just as prone to doubt as anyone else. Lord, lead us to repentance today. Keep us at the foot of the cross. We are so grateful that your kingdom was opened to us. That the gospel was preached to us. That you loved us while we were your enemies. We worship you for sending your son to die for us, in our place. We are grateful for your reckless love and abundant grace. We pray in Jesus' name. Amen.

Okay, maybe not that far but just let me enjoy this small victory). Another episode with everyone minus Val, but don't worry she comes back real real soon. Apologies as this episode was recorded in October so the commentary is a littttttttle bit dated. The stories, however, are timeless. First we read about Jar Jar Bink's non-canon daddy in the extremely trippy Jar Jar's Bizarre Adventure. Then we read about Metal Gear, which David apparently has never played so don't ask him about it cause he doesn't know anything, and we end up trying to list all the different snakes in between various groans.

The ALL ME® Podcast The Anabolic Doc – Dr. Thomas O'Connor The ALL ME Podcast is going to provide you with information from the nations leading experts when it comes to anything Appearance and Performance Enhancing Substance related.   During this interview, which will take places in two parts, we visit with Dr. Thomas O'Connor, better known as the Anabolic Doc. Dr. Thomas O'Connor is the only Board Certified Internist in the U.S. who focusses his practice on the care of men and women who have used or are using anabolic steroids. He is the first American Physician to address steroid use head-on and offers his expert medical services for those who are concerned about how anabolic steroids can and may have adversely affected their health. Dr. O'Connor understands why people use Anabolic Steroids, and since 2005 has helped thousands of people retain their health. His patients include anyone who is using or has used anabolic steroids, pro-Hormones or other anabolic/androgenic agents (SARMS, anti-estrogens, fertility medications of various types, HGH, IGF, Peptides, clenbuterol, insulin, thyroid preparations, diuretics, amphetamines and other medical agents) and is concerned for their health. He is going to break down anabolic androgenic steroids, Di-Hydro Testosterone or DHT, testosterone and others.  Not only is he going to give us a full history of why these drugs were designed but how they're used in modern medicine and the side effects that can come along with abusing these drugs. One of the most important muscles in our bodies that can be effected when using anabolic steroids is our heart and cardiovascular system.  Dr. O'Connor will give us a ton of information as to how these drugs effect the heart and why educating people about this is so very important to him and his work. Education and awareness is something Dr. O'Connor is passionate about so he puts out a lot of great content on YouTube.  You can find his channel by searching the Anabolic Doc or find the direct link below.  While Dr. O'Connor has cared for professional and amateur athletes in the body-building, power lifting, strong man and CrossFit world- he spends most of his time helping regular people who have used these agents for personal reasons. Dr. O'Connor stresses that these substances are harmful and their use for body building and similar purpose is completely illegal.    Disclaimer The content in this podcast represents the opinion and knowledge of our guests.

Left ventricular hypertrophy is enlargement and thickening (hypertrophy) of the walls of your heart's main pumping chamber (left ventricle). Left ventricular hypertrophy can develop in response to some factor — such as high blood pressure or a heart condition — that causes the left ventricle to work harder.   2017 Study conducted at the Massachusetts General Hospital, published by the American Heart Association journal, on long term anabolic steroid use and how it effects the heart: (Age 34 – 54)                 Results:  steroid users had weaker hearts than those who have never used.  They also had worse heart function.  The steroid users also were found to have more plaque buildup in their arteries than non-users.

The labor force participation rate has dropped 3 percent in the past decade, leading some economists to reason there are many people who have yet to return to the job market. But with low unemployment and the full recovery of participation for people in their prime working years (25-54 years old), the overall decrease is likely due to the outsized retirement of baby boomers. Pay more attention to the steady trends in jobless claims to help chart the future course of the economy.

There is a time and a place for everything. Just because something has worked in the past, does not mean it is something that should be implemented today.  In fact, today...well, on Friday to be exact, our family saw where this discrepancy or 'gap in care' as I affectionately call it, has left many people, families and professionals with resentment toward one another and apathy toward a system that was born out of compassion.  How can we as a society renew the hope and build a bridge between what once was considered 'effective' care to the crisis' epicenter? I have a solution with soul that definitely has me sitting amongst the misfits of innovation before me who dared to challenge the system and all its established brick and mortar minutiae. In this short solo episode I discuss how I got my wild ideas, what a trip to the ER with my adult son stirred in me, and what my bridge over troubled water feels like.  Join me, outside the box, where fun and freedom are created from utter chaos (aka fuckery). --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

When Pete is blamed for the mistake, MacGyver must prove the accident was sabotage before Pete's nefarious replacement hatches an evil plan. This week's highlights include:     Shrunken head (History) A shrunken head is a severed and specially prepared human head that is used for trophy, ritual, or trade purposes. Headhunting has occurred in many regions of the world. But the practice of headshrinking has only been documented in the northwestern region of the Amazon rain forest, and the only tribes known to have shrunken human heads are of the Jivaroan tribes. These include the Shuar, Achuar, Huambisa and Aguaruna tribes, found in Ecuador and Peru. The Shuar call a shrunken head a tsantsa, also transliterated tzantza.

The second in our "How-To-Be-More-Grateful" sermon series. Neil shares his thoughts on the practical practice of giving thanks.Readings:Genesis 18: 1-15The Lord appeared to Abraham[a] by the oaks[b] of Mamre, as he sat at the entrance of his tent in the heat of the day. 2 He looked up and saw three men standing near him. When he saw them, he ran from the tent entrance to meet them, and bowed down to the ground. 3 He said, “My lord, if I find favor with you, do not pass by your servant. 4 Let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree. 5 Let me bring a little bread, that you may refresh yourselves, and after that you may pass on—since you have come to your servant.” So they said, “Do as you have said.” 6 And Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and said, “Make ready quickly three measures[c] of choice flour, knead it, and make cakes.” 7 Abraham ran to the herd, and took a calf, tender and good, and gave it to the servant, who hastened to prepare it. 8 Then he took curds and milk and the calf that he had prepared, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree while they ate.9 They said to him, “Where is your wife Sarah?” And he said, “There, in the tent.” 10 Then one said, “I will surely return to you in due season, and your wife Sarah shall have a son.” And Sarah was listening at the tent entrance behind him. 11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in age; it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women. 12 So Sarah laughed to herself, saying, “After I have grown old, and my husband is old, shall I have pleasure?” 13 The Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, and say, ‘Shall I indeed bear a child, now that I am old?’ 14 Is anything too wonderful for the Lord? At the set time I will return to you, in due season, and Sarah shall have a son.” 15 But Sarah denied, saying, “I did not laugh”; for she was afraid. He said, “Oh yes, you did laugh.”Accidents of Birth by William MeredithSpared by a car or airplane crash orcured of malignancy, people lookaround with new eyes at a newlypraiseworthy world, blinking eyes like these.For I’ve been brought back again from thefine silt, the mud where our atoms liedown for long naps.
