[3970.48 --> 3972.26] in 1 Samuel, |
[3972.50 --> 3973.06] in Isaiah, |
[3973.22 --> 3974.42] and the Gospel of Matthew, |
[3974.74 --> 3976.70] they all share similarities |
[3976.70 --> 3978.68] about a chosen one of God |
[3978.68 --> 3980.06] either being a king |
[3980.06 --> 3980.74] or a servant |
[3980.74 --> 3981.58] and in this case, |
[3981.76 --> 3982.04] Jesus. |
[3983.40 --> 3984.62] The first connection |
[3984.62 --> 3986.04] is that in all three stories |
[3986.04 --> 3986.90] there is a prophet |
[3986.90 --> 3988.30] who receives word |
[3988.30 --> 3990.12] that a man God has chosen |
[3990.12 --> 3991.28] is going to arrive |
[3991.28 --> 3993.02] and that he is going |
[3993.02 --> 3994.10] to lead God's people |
[3994.10 --> 3995.26] and bring justice |
[3995.26 --> 3996.44] or judgment. |
[3997.36 --> 3997.84] Second, |
[3998.10 --> 3999.22] in all three stories, |
[3999.36 --> 4000.72] this man has the Holy Spirit |
[4000.72 --> 4001.70] poured out on him |
[4001.70 --> 4003.80] as a visible sign |
[4003.80 --> 4005.02] that this is God's man |
[4005.02 --> 4005.88] and that he's empowered |
[4005.88 --> 4006.82] to do the task. |
[4007.90 --> 4008.42] And third, |
[4008.52 --> 4009.42] in all stories, |
[4009.52 --> 4010.26] there is a declaration |
[4010.26 --> 4011.00] from God |
[4011.00 --> 4012.68] that this man, |
[4013.28 --> 4015.02] that this man was sent. |
[4015.54 --> 4016.30] This is the one |
[4016.30 --> 4017.20] who I promised. |
[4017.20 --> 4019.66] And the last point |
[4019.66 --> 4020.10] of connection |
[4020.10 --> 4022.02] of which I find |
[4022.02 --> 4023.02] utterly surprising |
[4023.02 --> 4024.36] is that Jesus, |
[4024.82 --> 4025.56] is what Jesus does |
[4025.56 --> 4027.44] after this public declaration, |
[4027.66 --> 4029.16] after he's baptized, |
[4030.16 --> 4032.30] is he goes into the wilderness |
[4032.30 --> 4034.02] and he fights a snake. |
[4035.72 --> 4037.08] Led by the Holy Spirit, |
[4037.18 --> 4037.76] like Saul, |
[4037.86 --> 4038.46] who was empowered |
[4038.46 --> 4039.14] by the Spirit, |
[4039.82 --> 4040.86] he goes and faces |
[4040.86 --> 4041.76] the temptations |
[4041.76 --> 4042.46] of the devil. |
[4043.34 --> 4044.16] And like Saul, |
[4044.28 --> 4044.94] who attacked |
[4044.94 --> 4046.24] with three divisions |
[4046.24 --> 4046.82] of his army, |
[4047.10 --> 4048.22] Jesus defends himself |
[4048.22 --> 4049.50] with the word |
[4049.50 --> 4050.60] three times |
[4050.60 --> 4051.30] from attacks |
[4051.30 --> 4052.16] from the snake |
[4052.16 --> 4053.38] who was the one |
[4053.38 --> 4054.06] in the garden |
[4054.06 --> 4056.10] who deceived Adam and Eve |
[4056.10 --> 4057.58] who started this whole mess. |
[4059.46 --> 4060.44] Just like Saul, |
[4060.54 --> 4061.42] after being declared |
[4061.42 --> 4062.58] by God |
[4062.58 --> 4063.96] to be his chosen one, |
[4064.14 --> 4065.54] he goes and fights |
[4065.54 --> 4066.50] God's enemy |
[4066.50 --> 4068.74] and the enemy |
[4068.74 --> 4069.70] of God's people |
[4069.70 --> 4071.22] and is victorious, |
[4072.18 --> 4073.04] proving himself |
[4073.04 --> 4074.00] to be the king |
[4074.00 --> 4074.48] of Israel. |
[4077.36 --> 4078.38] But let us go back |
[4078.38 --> 4078.92] to how God |
[4078.92 --> 4080.66] introduces his servant, |
[4081.02 --> 4081.22] Jesus, |
[4081.50 --> 4082.32] in Matthew 3. |
[4083.54 --> 4084.80] God has declared |
[4084.80 --> 4085.30] that Jesus |
[4085.30 --> 4086.38] is his servant, |
[4086.86 --> 4087.46] this man |
[4087.46 --> 4088.50] in whom he loves. |
[4088.98 --> 4089.58] But we get |
[4089.58 --> 4090.78] one more piece |
[4090.78 --> 4091.40] of information. |
[4092.54 --> 4093.26] God's servant |
[4093.26 --> 4094.74] is his son. |
[4095.66 --> 4097.00] The son of God |
[4097.00 --> 4098.30] is the servant |
[4098.30 --> 4099.14] who will bring justice |
[4099.14 --> 4099.82] to the nations. |
[4099.82 --> 4101.42] The son of God |
[4101.42 --> 4102.20] is the servant |
[4102.20 --> 4103.44] who will be the light |
[4103.44 --> 4104.22] to the world. |
