July 3, 2016 Sermon - Independence Day July 3, 2016 Sermon - Independence Day Isaiah 66:10-14 and Psalm 66:1-9 • Galatians 6:(1-6), 7-16 • Luke 10:1-11, 16-20 When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. So begins the declaration of independence, which is why we celebrate on the Fourth of July each year. That year of the declaration, the temperature reached a high of 76 degrees, almost ten degrees cooler than the temperature is supposed to be tomorrow. Global warming? No, the planet was just emerging from a mini ice age. This is a part of the course of events, as stated in this declaration, by Nature’s God. It was and is, natural. We hold these truths to be self-evident. Perhaps not seen by many, but for those who are willing to look, they are evident. Whether one agrees or not, scientists will go on about quantum physics, the universe and its inception and what is interesting to the unbiased observer is that they kiss the face of God and then back off. “There was a big bang.” Perhaps. I wasn’t there, neither were they. “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” If it was a big bang, then God pulled the trigger. The order of the universe is self evident. It takes more energy, wrangling and mental-gymnastics seeking to prove otherwise. See and accept the evidence. That all men are created equal. Yes, we can go off on the fact that many of those writing this declaration were slave holders. Are we not equally morally challenged by the economic inequalities in our world? We wear cheap clothing made in sweat shops. We consume food and drink made by cheap labor at home and abroad. There is prejudice, bigotry and hatred around the world. There are the haves and the have nots, which is why we are committed to those ministries which help the ones in need. Behind all of this is the truth that each of us is created in the image of God and that He loves all whom He has created. Remember this in your next moment of prejudice. We are all infected with the disease of sin, it happens and will happen again. This person before you is one whom God loved enough to die on the cross for them. They are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights. Yes, we have been endowed with rights from the Lord. Our life is His gift to us. We can live it as we will. But sin has come and in this age and so we live it for our own sakes. In so doing, we are divorced from the One who created us. Only when our lives are given back to Him do we find the true purpose and meaning of life as it was created to be lived. You have the right to life, commonly taken now even before birth with the excuse that the unborn child is not a creation of the Lord. Increasingly we are now plagued with the encouragement to take it on the other end to avoid life’s difficulties. But these ideas are the ideas of man. To understand the unalienable rights God endows, one simply needs to pursue the answer to this question, “What would happen if I let life run its natural course?;” by implication, allowing God’s will to be done. Among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. You have the right to life. Every image-bearer has this right. Every human being was created in the image of God. You have the right to life, but you do not have the right to take that life and dissipate it. Many will and do, but this is the course of sin. Life is to be lived, grown and nurtured. It is given freedom to do so. In our hyper-sensitive hovering culture, this does not mean a pampered, directed, or manipulated to certain outcome life. Outcome-based education often over-reaches and defies this very right which has been granted by God. Left unhindered, but properly nurtured, every life will reach the place God has intended. Some, one, others two and perhaps even a few with five times the ability, gifts and talents, but all according to God’s providence. Liberty is freedom with responsibility. Christ has made you free to be a responsible citizen of His kingdom. In this age of extreme individualism, we are not our own, as many like to think, but a part of the whole which God has created. He created us to be in community and in community we find our liberty. You were called to this community by God and only in His providence will you find His will for you. It is freedom from sin to be united through Christ with Him forever that brings true liberty. It is only then that you, or in fact anyone, can find happiness. In this sense, there is no guarantee other than what Christ has expressed. That is, this world is filled with heartache because of sin. Yet, as followers of Christ, we are to pursue what He promised. Did not Paul admonish us to run the race? Have we not been encouraged to seek the prize? Without the desire to pursue, there can be no forward movement. I find this principle to be true. If you want to see clearly God’s hand, then you must step out in faith, seeking to see accomplished what only God can do. Remember this as we begin to look at building a church building. If we build only what we envision, think we can afford or sustain, then it will be our work. If we trust the Lord and His leading, then we will see a miracle. No, it’s not looking for a big donor to give us what we think we need. It’s looking to the Lord and seeing His hand accomplish what only He can do. And do we not already have this simply by being here today? Go back ten, perhaps twenty years and who would have imagined sitting here today in these circumstances? God is at work. We are evidence of this! Trust the Lord and pursue. This is why Jesus sent the disciples out two by two. We are here today because of what Jesus taught His disciples. A man in Israel in the Roman Empire affected the whole world by sending His disciples out. An amazing principle God has taught us. Pursue! Enough of this once and done saved forever nonsense. Our life is a journey and we are not where we shall be. Heaven awaits, but is not yet, for the course of this life must be traveled. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. Whether a nation, a church, or a congregation, we establish these for the sake of good order and the ability to live out the self-evident rights given by God. We are here today because we would not consent to the governance issued by the authority that was over us. The rebellion was not in vane, nor without cause. Sin, perhaps, as some have supposed, but necessary all the more, for the very heart of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is always at stake when the influence of the world is allowed to take authority over the Word that has already been spoken. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but the Word of the Lord is forever. We did not make up this Gospel, but it has been proclaimed by Christ that through Him alone can we be reconciled to the Eternal God who created all things. Nature’s God. Each generation is given those gifts which were passed along by the ones who carried it thus far in history, but without the vigilance of each succeeding generation, we are but one generation away from the tyranny that, thus far, has been kept at bay that we might pursue life and liberty within those rights granted by Almighty God. When I think of the events in the human history of nations, I personally find it reprehensible that the leader of our nation should chastise and lecture our parent nation in how they conduct their affairs. First, the very basis of our declaration is one of self-determination and second, it is nothing less that a flagrant pronouncement of the condescending nature of the cult of tolerance, wherein the self-proclaimed superior declares to the alleged inferior that they are not illumined with the understanding necessary to make such decisions. This, we know, Jesus rebuked them when He told James and John they were wrong on wanting to bring down fire from heaven. We are therein warned to refrain from worrying about other people’s business when we are unable to properly maintain our own. We are never granted authority to reprimand our parent, for does not God command that we honor them, even if they are wrong? Remember this principle. Jesus does not command us to produce results, only that we go in His name and proclaim the salvation He has won from the cross.

  • An Examination of Isaiah 66:17
    Sometimes the Center is the Wrong Place to Be: An Examination of Isaiah 66:17 Kevin Malarkey Theology Given the Hebrew Bible as our only historical source, the period of the Israelites’ return to Judah and restoration of Jerusalem seems to be one of religious, social, and political anarchy; the Biblical record is wrought with historical lacunae and contradictions which ultimately leave us in the proverbial dark concerning the epoch.1 Historical-Biblical scholarship must, it appears, be content to do without a coherent and comprehensive narrative fully describing the repatriated Israelites’ situation. But, this is not to say that our knowledge of the period is wholly deficient; from a more studious examination of the texts we might be able to glean more than just isolated minutiae floating through the void. We can certainly assert that a portion of the exiled Israelites, the ones most interested in preserving their identity as specially chosen by God,2 would have adopted conservative attitudes regarding authentic religious worship. While some of the exiles may have made forays into religious syncretism and cultural assimilation (and most likely did, given the fact that some elected not to return to Palestine after Cyrus’ liberation), others refused acquiescence to such syncretism and assimilation on the grounds that authentic God-worship could not be genuinely undertaken in Babylon and should not be sullied by the taint of other gods. Indeed, a group of exiles did return to Jerusalem, intent on reestablishing authentic God- worship in the land and rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem as the locale of this worship.

Introduction The Hebrew Scriptures (or the Old Testament) feature three main characters: king, priest and prophet. Of course, God is to be Israel’s king: in the beginning, God makes an irrevocable covenant with Israel; he leads the Israelites out of Egypt in the Exodus; reaffirms the covenant at Mount Sinai; tests the Israelites throughout their 40-year wilderness experience; and finally, under Joshua’s leadership, moves them into the land of Canaan—the “Promised Land”—where they dislodge (to some degree) the indigenous people who live there: the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites (Judges 3: 5-6).

  • Isaiah Chapter 66
    Isaiah Chapter 66 Verses 1-16: Isaiah’s final prophecy begins with the assertion, “Thus saith the Lord.” The passage points to the magnitude and immensity of God, who is greater than the heavens. Thus “heaven” is His “throne” and “earth” His “footstool.” He is not limited to any “house” (temple) made by man. The apostle John tells us that in eternity there is no need for a temple, “for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it” (Rev. 21:22). God’s desire is to dwell in men and women who are of a “poor and … contrite spirit.” Thus, Isaiah foresees the New Testament doctrine of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the temple of man’s body (1 Cor. 6:19). Verses 1-2: Isaiah began the final summary of his prophecy with a reminder that God is not looking for a temple of stone, since as Creator of all things; the whole universe is His dwelling place. Stephen cited this passage before the Sanhedrin to point out their error in limiting God to a temple made with hands (Acts 7:49-50). On the contrary, God is looking for a heart to dwell in, a heart that is tender and broken, not one concerned with the externalities of religion (Matt. 5:3-9). God is looking to dwell in the heart of a person who takes His Word seriously (66:5; John 14:23). Isaiah 66:1 "Thus saith the LORD, The heaven [is] my throne, and the earth [is] my footstool: where [is] the house that ye build unto me? and where [is] the place of my rest?" Solomon said it best, when he said (in 1 Kings): 1 Kings 8:27 "But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?" God is Omnipresent, which means He is everywhere all the time.

  • Eating in Isaiah 65–66 As a Conclusion to Isaiah
    chapter 6 In or Out? Eating in Isaiah 65–66 as a Conclusion to Isaiah Isaiah 65–66 brings the book of Isaiah to a close with some decisive proclama- tions related to eating: “my servants shall eat . my servants shall drink” (65:13); “they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit” (65:21). Additionally, God’s peo- ple anticipate being nursed by Mother Zion (66:10–13), and the nations even stream to Zion for festal celebration (66:23). These positive announcements contrast with indictments against those feasting in idolatrous cults (65:4, 11; 66:3, 17). The aim of this chapter is to pursue the significance of the food and drink theme in Isa 65–66 in light of their role as concluding chapters to both Isa 56–66 and the entire book from a sequential-synchronic perspective. Food and Drink in Isaiah 65–66 Previous studies on Isa 65–66 have uncovered many elements that contrib- ute to the coherence between these chapters, conveying a message about the contrasting destinies of the apostates and YHWH’s servants.1 Chief among these are (1) YHWH speaking throughout both chapters, initially to the wicked (65:1–66:2a) and then to the servants (66:2b–24);2 (2) both chapters responding 1 Approaching these chapters as a unity is a great contrast with the previous tendency to frag- ment texts. See Claus Westermann, Isaiah 40–66: A Commentary (Philadelphia: Westminster, 1969), 398–429, who identifies seven separate units in these chapters (65:1–16a, 17–25; 66:1–4, 5, 6–16, 17, 18–24).

They have decided to behave this way; they enjoy these disgusting practices. 4 So I will choose severe punishment for them; I will bring on them what they dread because I called, and no one responded. I spoke and they did not listen. They did evil before me; they chose to do what displeases me.” 5 Listen to the Lord’s message, you who respect his word! “Your countrymen, who hate you and exclude you, supposedly for the sake of my name, say, ‘May the Lord be glorified, then we will witness your joy.’ But they will be put to shame. 6 The sound of battle comes from the city; the sound comes from the temple!

  • Handout 1: Isaiah Lesson 23 the Redeemer Is Anointed by Yahweh Like Prophets, Priests, and Kings (Verse 1)
    Handout 1: Isaiah Lesson 23 The Redeemer is anointed by Yahweh like prophets, priests, and kings (verse 1). In Hebrew the word for “anointed one” is mashiach or in English, messiah. Isaiah 61:1 uses verbal form of the noun “messiah”/ “anointed one.” God has given the Redeemer-Messiah a specific mission in 61:1b-2. There are the five aspects of his ministry. The reference to “year” designates a “time” or “age” and not a literal year and the word translated “vengeance” in Hebrew means “balancing the scales.” 1. He is to preach good news of God’s intervention to the afflicted. 2. He is to bring comfort to the spiritually brokenhearted through a ministry of mercy. 3. He is to proclaim freedom and release to captives and prisoners 4. He will usher in a time of divine justice for society and will restore the rights of the oppressed. 5. He will proclaim both God’s divine favor and His judgment. In 61:3 Zion’s mourning will turn to gladness and the covenant people will be changed from their former sad condition in five ways: 1. They will be crowned with a garland (sign of royalty) instead of wearing ashes on their heads that are a sign of mourning. 2. They will be anointed with the oil of gladness. 3. They will wear not mourning clothes but will dress as for a festival. 4. They will be called those who demonstrate “saving justice.” 5. All this will take place because God has “planted”/established them to glorify Him.

Who has ever seen things like this? Can a country be born in a day or a nation be brought forth in a moment? Yet no sooner is Zion in labor than she gives birth to her children. 9 Do I bring to the moment of birth and not give delivery?” says the Lord. “Do I close up the womb when I bring to delivery?” says your God. 10 “Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad for her, all you who love her; rejoice greatly with her, all you who mourn over her. 11 For you will nurse and be satisfied at her comforting breasts; you will drink deeply and delight in her overflowing abundance.” 12 For this is what the Lord says: “I will extend peace to her like a river, and the wealth of nations like a flooding stream; you will nurse and be carried on her arm and dandled on her knees. 13 As a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you; and you will be comforted over Jerusalem.” 14 When you see this, your heart will rejoice and you will flourish like grass; the hand of the Lord will be made known to his servants, but his fury will be shown to his foes.

  • A Desolate Planet
    A Desolate Planet Revelation 20:1-3 describes the thousand years as a period of time during which the devil is bound with a chain. Is this a literal steel chain from the hardware store? Not likely. This is a symbolic chain. Something happens that prevents the devil from carrying on his usual business of deceiving the world. What is it? Let’s put the pieces together: Revelation 22:11 tells us that when Jesus returns, there will only be two groups of people on planet earth— the wicked and the righteous. At the Second Coming, you will belong to one of those two groups and it will be too late to change your mind. 1 Thessalonians 4:16, 17 and John 14:1-3 reveal that when Jesus comes, the righteous go to be with Him in heaven. The righteous dead are raised from the grave, and together with the righteous living, they are caught up into the air to meet Christ face-to-face. Isaiah 25:9 gives us a glimpse of the saints’ excitement when they see Jesus coming! Not everybody will be excited, however. Revelation 6:15-17 gives us a picture of those who never made the all-important decision to accept the forgiveness Jesus gives. When they witness the Second Coming of Christ, they are not excited—they are terrified! Jesus does not appear as a Savior and Friend to them; instead, He appears as the One leading the armies of heaven (Revelation 19:14-21). The wicked are not caught up to be with Jesus because they wouldn’t be happy in heaven, anyway.
