1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,800
Well, it's now direct our 
attention to the word of God. 

2
00:00:06,500 --> 00:00:08,100
We're still in The Sermon on the
Mount. 

3
00:00:08,100 --> 00:00:12,400
Although we have moved forward. 
We're in chapter 7, now chapter 

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,200
7 of Matthew, The Sermon on the 
Mount. 

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,700
And I want us to look at the 
five versus not the sixth. 

6
00:00:21,700 --> 00:00:26,600
It's there. 
I feel like the sixth is a whole

7
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:32,700
different story. 
Shall I tell them, Tommy? 

8
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:37,800
You don't think I should? 
Okay. 

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,700
Okay, it was a weak attempt at 
humor I shared with Tommy but 

10
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,000
some things are kept 
confidential to the pastures. 

11
00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:47,900
Many things, I hope. 
Listen. 

12
00:00:47,900 --> 00:00:53,200
Now to the word of God, judge, 
not that you be not judged for 

13
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:57,600
with the Judgment you pronounce,
you will be judged and with the 

14
00:00:57,608 --> 00:01:00,600
measure you use, it will be 
measured to you. 

15
00:01:02,300 --> 00:01:05,900
Why do you seek the speck? 
That is in your brother's eye 

16
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,600
and do not notice the log, that 
is in your own eye, or how can 

17
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,000
you say to your brother? 
Let me take the speck out of 

18
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,800
your eye. 
When there is the log in your 

19
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:20,100
own eye. 
You hypocrite first take the log

20
00:01:20,100 --> 00:01:23,200
out of your own eye and then you
will see clearly to take the 

21
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:29,500
speck out of your brother's eye,
the word of the Lord, you may be

22
00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:41,100
seated. 
Now we're still in The Sermon on

23
00:01:41,100 --> 00:01:46,000
the Mount. 
And Jesus is still teaching this

24
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,500
elongated sermon this message 
with many, many topics. 

25
00:01:51,100 --> 00:01:53,400
But the general things to 
remember and we've talked about 

26
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,700
this almost each and every time 
is that he speaking to his 

27
00:01:56,700 --> 00:02:01,800
disciples, others are there in 
auditing this he's talking about

28
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,900
their behavior, he's talking 
about their heart, he's talking 

29
00:02:05,900 --> 00:02:10,699
about his disciples worldview 
and their treasure and their 

30
00:02:10,699 --> 00:02:13,100
loyalties and own. 
On and on. 

31
00:02:13,100 --> 00:02:17,500
And a lot of the things that 
Jesus says are those things that

32
00:02:17,500 --> 00:02:23,500
are always addressed with, do 
not, do not do this, do not do 

33
00:02:23,500 --> 00:02:26,200
that. 
And he has the context in mind 

34
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:31,100
of the men who've been the 
spiritual leaders of these 

35
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:36,500
Judean people for many, many 
years. 

36
00:02:37,100 --> 00:02:39,000
That is the scribes and the 
Pharisees. 

37
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,400
The doctors of the law, the 
Pharisees were that party. 

38
00:02:42,500 --> 00:02:48,600
That that consider themselves to
be experts, at Holiness, affect 

39
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,900
us. 
What the word means, it means to

40
00:02:49,900 --> 00:02:58,300
separate the separated ones and 
in Jesus contrast do not 

41
00:02:58,300 --> 00:03:02,900
interpret the law like they do. 
Do not pray like they do 

42
00:03:02,900 --> 00:03:07,800
ostentatiously do not give alms.
Like they do do not fast as 

43
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,800
that. 
You can be seen of men like they

44
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,400
do and on and on he's saying do 
not do not do not in the very 

45
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,800
next passage. 
He's going to say do not cast 

46
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,000
your Pearls Before Swine. 
And in this particular passage 

47
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:26,300
it's do not judge, do not judge 
in the people that the Lord has 

48
00:03:26,300 --> 00:03:30,400
in mind to contrast his kingdom 
behaviors. 

49
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,000
Earth are the Pharisees. 
And we see this Spirit of the 

50
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,600
Pharisees in the scriptures. 
Very familiar passage. 

51
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,000
I'll just read it just a few 
verses. 

52
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,800
Two men went up to the temple. 
To pray. 

53
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,400
One was a Pharisee and the other
was a tax collector. 

54
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,500
The Pharisee standing by himself
prayed. 

55
00:03:50,500 --> 00:03:53,900
Thus God, I thank you that. 
I'm not like other men, 

56
00:03:53,900 --> 00:03:58,200
extortioners unjust adulterers 
or even like this tax collector.

57
00:03:58,700 --> 00:04:02,900
I fast twice a week. 
I give tithes of all I get, but 

58
00:04:02,900 --> 00:04:06,200
the tax collector standing far 
off would not even lift up his 

59
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:11,300
eyes to heaven, but beat his 
breast saying, God, be merciful 

60
00:04:11,700 --> 00:04:15,400
to me a Inner. 
Once again, Jesus is contrasting

61
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:20,700
that of this self-righteous 
Pharisees with those who receive

62
00:04:20,700 --> 00:04:25,800
Grace, those who come by way of 
humble Contrition and repentance

63
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,800
to receive forgiveness for their
sins. 

64
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,400
Lord, have mercy upon me a 
sinner and who received from the

65
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:39,400
hand of the Lord, the gift of 
forgiveness and grace, and mercy

66
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,500
and the gift of eternal life. 
All Wrapped and packaged in 

67
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:46,300
Jesus Christ himself. 
So here he is Christ. 

68
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:51,800
The very sacrifice for sins is 
dealing with the sins of the 

69
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,100
heart. 
And so he tells these Pharisees 

70
00:04:55,100 --> 00:05:00,400
not and he's telling his people 
not to be like the Pharisees and

71
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,300
to not judge. 
Now, what is meant by that? 

72
00:05:03,300 --> 00:05:06,000
Let me Define two or three words
here that will be helpful. 

73
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,100
I think in understanding what 
we're what we're talking about. 

74
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:16,100
The first one is a word kirino 
and it means to judge and that's

75
00:05:16,100 --> 00:05:18,700
the word that used here. 
In fact, that's the only root 

76
00:05:18,700 --> 00:05:22,400
word that used hear the word 
Credo means to judge principally

77
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:27,300
but it's used over 20 times in 
the New Testament and it has 

78
00:05:27,300 --> 00:05:33,400
about 22 or 23 different usage 
and and it depends on what 

79
00:05:33,700 --> 00:05:37,900
prefix is put on the word or 
what word is combined with it to

80
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:40,700
make a compound word as to what 
it may mean. 

81
00:05:41,100 --> 00:05:44,700
But I will suggest to you that 
here judging is the whole 

82
00:05:44,900 --> 00:05:51,000
judicial process of judgment. 
Let me spell out what I mean by 

83
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,900
that. 
Edward. 

84
00:05:52,900 --> 00:05:56,700
The word means to judge, but it 
refers to the Judgment itself. 

85
00:05:57,500 --> 00:06:01,200
It refers to the decision that 
is made in judging. 

86
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,100
Sometimes it means to 
discriminate or discern. 

87
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,900
Sometimes it means to condemn. 
Listen to all this because I 

88
00:06:11,900 --> 00:06:14,500
think the Lord incorporates all 
of this when he says, do not do 

89
00:06:14,500 --> 00:06:17,400
this. 
And so these meanings are all 

90
00:06:18,300 --> 00:06:24,400
bound up in this route. 
It means interestingly enough to

91
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,200
investigate. 
To answer. 

92
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,800
To probe. 
And noticed in the text when he 

93
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:38,900
talks about seeking. 
Diligently seeking the speck 

94
00:06:38,900 --> 00:06:42,500
that is in your brother's eye as
opposed to noticing. 

95
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,300
The beam that's in your own eye.
There's a lot of Rich subtlety 

96
00:06:47,300 --> 00:06:50,200
here in the Lord's words. 
And these words I think sort of 

97
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,400
really focus that in frame it 
the way it needs to be. 

98
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,700
So that's what the Lord is 
saying telling them not to do. 

99
00:06:56,700 --> 00:07:02,800
It's this whole judicial process
now, there is good judgment, the

100
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,000
Judgment of God, the Messiah 
fought in the Old Testament over

101
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,400
and over and over the word 
judgment is used. 

102
00:07:09,700 --> 00:07:13,200
There's a lot of scripture about
God being a righteous judge. 

103
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,800
Judge and a faithful judge and 
we'll talk a little bit more 

104
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,600
about that in just a minute as 
we come to quickly apply this. 

105
00:07:19,900 --> 00:07:24,800
But what the Lord is talking 
about here is that that critical

106
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:33,900
Probing, investigating curious 
Mal valent judging. 

107
00:07:33,900 --> 00:07:36,900
That is done. 
Among Brothers. 

108
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:43,100
Now, Jesus is telling his 
disciples not to do this among 

109
00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:48,400
themselves to each other. 
It was apparently very, very 

110
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:53,100
common for the Jewish people and
especially the leadership of the

111
00:07:53,100 --> 00:07:57,900
Jewish people, to have this 
mindset because they had such a 

112
00:07:57,900 --> 00:08:04,000
finely tuned and excellent, good
and acceptable law written by 

113
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:10,300
the Lord himself. 
They had a fine-tuned sense of 

114
00:08:10,300 --> 00:08:14,400
justice and equity in 
righteousness, and so, it was 

115
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:20,100
easy for them to look at someone
else and notice how they that 

116
00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:22,300
other person doesn't quite 
measure up. 

117
00:08:23,300 --> 00:08:29,900
And to be critical and to detect
and discern, all sorts of little

118
00:08:29,900 --> 00:08:34,100
weaknesses and failures in gaps,
and shortcomings, and sins. 

119
00:08:34,100 --> 00:08:40,100
Peccadilloes as well as as 
gross, Miss behaviors in others.

120
00:08:41,700 --> 00:08:46,400
Now, this particular mindset to 
judge is what the Lord is 

121
00:08:46,500 --> 00:08:54,000
referencing against. 
When he speaks of the speck that

122
00:08:54,000 --> 00:09:00,100
is in your brother's eye, versus
the log, that's in your eye. 

123
00:09:00,100 --> 00:09:03,400
He's using. 
Obviously hyperbole is using the

124
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,700
extremes of a tree. 
The spec is the little tiniest 

125
00:09:06,700 --> 00:09:09,100
of twig. 
It's that little part of the 

126
00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:15,600
tree that the bird uses to make 
his nest The log are the beam is

127
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:20,600
the trunk of the tree. 
So obviously the contrast is his

128
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,900
real Vivid you. 
You notice that little tiny twig

129
00:09:24,900 --> 00:09:29,100
that little tiny Speck. 
That mote that is in the in the,

130
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:33,800
your brother. 
But you can't see the whole tree

131
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:38,100
trunk, the whole gamut of 
unrighteousness and seeing in 

132
00:09:38,100 --> 00:09:41,500
your own life. 
And so, the Lord is introducing 

133
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:47,100
to his disciples, a measure of 
discernment and discipline that 

134
00:09:47,100 --> 00:09:52,800
cause as for balance, To start 
recognizing her own sins, and 

135
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:59,400
not being so quick to find. 
Judge condemn indict. 

136
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:04,300
Our brother I this this notion 
of really being able to see 

137
00:10:04,300 --> 00:10:08,600
someone else's sin and not to 
see your own sin, apparently was

138
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:17,100
kind of a feature of Jewish life
and Paul deals with it in 

139
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,600
Romans, Chapter 2. 
And I want to read good long 

140
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,800
passage. 
I'll try not to, I'll try not to

141
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,800
comment on it and listen to how 
Paul when he's dealing with 

142
00:10:28,100 --> 00:10:31,100
these. 
Very same types of people these 

143
00:10:31,500 --> 00:10:35,500
These Jewish self-righteous 
people in chapter 1 of Romans, 

144
00:10:35,500 --> 00:10:37,800
he's already dealt with the with
the unbeliever. 

145
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,600
The Pagan that goes to the 
reprobate. 

146
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:43,100
Now, he's dealing with the self 
righteous Jew and this is some 

147
00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:46,900
of the admonitions he gives, and
this is really our message. 

148
00:10:46,900 --> 00:10:49,600
This morning is this passage in 
one more that I'll read. 

149
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,100
It's not what I say it's what 
the scriptures say. 

150
00:10:52,100 --> 00:10:56,200
So hear the word of the Lord 
therefore you have no excuse old

151
00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:01,000
man every one of you who judges 
For in the passing, judgment on 

152
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:06,800
another, you condemn yourself 
because you the judge practice 

153
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,400
the very same thing. 
We know that the Judgment of God

154
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,900
rightly falls on those who do 
such things. 

155
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:17,100
Do you suppose old man? 
You who judge those? 

156
00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:21,200
Who does such things that yet, 
do them yourself that you will 

157
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:25,500
escape the Judgment of God. 
Or do you presume on the riches 

158
00:11:25,500 --> 00:11:30,000
of his kindness and forbearance 
and patience, not knowing that 

159
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,600
God's kindness is meant to lead 
you to repentance. 

160
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,400
That verse cannot go 
uncommented, on verse 4. 

161
00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:44,800
Do you presume on the riches of 
the kindness, the forbearance 

162
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:51,800
and the patients that cluster of
the long-suffering Lord with 

163
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:57,000
centers such as I not knowing 
that God's kindness is meant to 

164
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,600
lead you to repentance, but 
because of your hard and 

165
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,600
impenitent heart, you are 
storing up wrath for yourself on

166
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,200
the day of Wrath. 
When God's righteous judgment 

167
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:13,200
will be revealed, he will render
to each one according to his 

168
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,700
Works to those who by patients 
and well doing seek for Glory 

169
00:12:16,708 --> 00:12:19,600
and Honor and immortality, he 
will give eternal life. 

170
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,400
But for those who are 
self-seeking and do not obey, 

171
00:12:23,500 --> 00:12:26,600
Obey the truth but obey 
unrighteousness, there will be 

172
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,500
wrath and fury, there will be 
tribulation and distress for 

173
00:12:30,500 --> 00:12:34,000
every human being who does evil 
the Jew first. 

174
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,500
And also, the Greek, but glory 
and honor and peace for 

175
00:12:38,500 --> 00:12:43,700
everyone, who does good the Jew 
first and also the Greek for God

176
00:12:43,700 --> 00:12:49,300
shows no partiality. 
That's where the conviction of 

177
00:12:49,300 --> 00:12:53,000
our own Hearts should come. 
When we realize that it's not 

178
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,800
just others. 
It is we ourselves? 

179
00:13:00,300 --> 00:13:05,500
Who are guilty? 
This particular sin. 

180
00:13:05,500 --> 00:13:07,100
I think escapes. 
No one. 

181
00:13:09,500 --> 00:13:13,900
In fact, sometimes the people 
that really work hard to be 

182
00:13:14,500 --> 00:13:22,000
righteous in themselves or harsh
and judgmental toward others who

183
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:27,200
struggle and fail and how things
wrong in their life. 

184
00:13:28,100 --> 00:13:34,300
And the Lord is calling us to a 
self inspection and a 

185
00:13:34,300 --> 00:13:41,000
self-awareness. 
And a self-consciousness 

186
00:13:41,700 --> 00:13:47,700
concerning our sins and telling 
us to avoid that, self-righteous

187
00:13:47,700 --> 00:13:51,200
stance that causes us to judge 
others. 

188
00:13:52,700 --> 00:13:57,100
It's a it's a teaching that will
lead to the sweetest Spirit, 

189
00:13:57,500 --> 00:14:01,400
possibly imagined in the life of
the Believers, the life of the 

190
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:08,100
church. 
Jealousy's, the bitterness. 

191
00:14:09,300 --> 00:14:13,400
The conflicts, the quibbling, 
the corals the skulls that come 

192
00:14:14,300 --> 00:14:18,900
will be minimized when God's 
people learn to follow the 

193
00:14:18,900 --> 00:14:22,200
teaching of the Lord here on The
Sermon, on the Mount. 

194
00:14:26,300 --> 00:14:28,700
As a couple other words will 
Define quickly. 

195
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,700
The word measure. 
It means not only the means but 

196
00:14:34,700 --> 00:14:38,300
the extent. 
To which you set up the 

197
00:14:38,300 --> 00:14:42,600
Criterion and the extent to 
which you judge others, that 

198
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,100
will be borne in mind when he 
comes time to judge, you. 

199
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,200
If it's a strict in a harsh 
standard, it will be laid 

200
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,000
against you several times 
already in The Sermon on the 

201
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,300
Mount. 
The Lord has referred to a final

202
00:14:55,300 --> 00:14:57,500
judgment. 
He will conclude The Sermon on 

203
00:14:57,500 --> 00:15:02,000
the Mount with a pretty thorough
Exposition about that judgment. 

204
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:07,300
That comes to all one way or the
other before, it's all over 

205
00:15:07,300 --> 00:15:09,300
with. 
We all are judged but the word 

206
00:15:09,300 --> 00:15:18,700
there is the word Met tour which
means m It's a metric metric. 

207
00:15:18,700 --> 00:15:24,400
Whereby we are spiritually 
discerned and measured. 

208
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,900
And then one other word in this 
one. 

209
00:15:26,900 --> 00:15:31,800
I think you're all very familiar
with and it is the word 

210
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:36,600
hypocrite. 
The Lord I think has in mind the

211
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:41,000
Pharisees, the scribes, when he 
uses this word, hypocrite, I 

212
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,300
know that cuz he actually called
them that to their face on other

213
00:15:45,300 --> 00:15:51,000
occasion. 
But he also I think has a 

214
00:15:51,900 --> 00:15:54,900
sincere desire, that his own 
disciples. 

215
00:15:57,900 --> 00:16:01,300
Are not like that at all. 
Of course, I've known most of, 

216
00:16:01,308 --> 00:16:03,500
you know, that to comes. 
It's a compound word. 

217
00:16:03,500 --> 00:16:08,300
It has that word kirino in it 
crit, which means to judge to 

218
00:16:08,300 --> 00:16:10,600
discern in all that. 
We've talked about a moment ago,

219
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,900
but it has also the compound of 
the hypo, which means underneath

220
00:16:14,900 --> 00:16:18,000
it in before it. 
And, and sets forth, the, the 

221
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,900
burden that it Bears and the 
word has quite a history 

222
00:16:20,900 --> 00:16:24,800
actually in the Greek language 
and carrying over into other 

223
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:30,800
cultures, it literally means To 
say something to answer to 

224
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,800
explain. 
And he comes from one who would 

225
00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:38,100
read poetry, and then they would
stand up and read poetry and 

226
00:16:38,100 --> 00:16:42,200
most of the portrait that would 
be read in a public forum for 

227
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,000
the edification and the 
entertainment of people in the 

228
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,200
ancient Greek World. 
They would be a lot of 

229
00:16:47,208 --> 00:16:51,000
platitudes and a lot of ethics 
and a lot of lecture and a lot 

230
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,200
of things that need to be said 
in the poem and the person would

231
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,700
read the poem and they would be 
standing out front a reading and

232
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,800
Explaining and eloquently 
setting forth this beautiful 

233
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:08,900
moral poem. 
But they themselves may be a 

234
00:17:08,900 --> 00:17:12,200
liar and a drunk, and who knows?
What they are off stage and 

235
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,099
behind the scenes, but up there 
in front of everybody there, as 

236
00:17:16,099 --> 00:17:21,000
you were there wearing this, 
this facade this mask, and it's 

237
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,599
talks about how that this is the
role. 

238
00:17:23,599 --> 00:17:28,800
It's the pretense that a person 
has in that particular role and 

239
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:34,400
later, it became routine to 
think of life. 

240
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:41,700
As that, which is an the conduct
that's played out in in real 

241
00:17:41,700 --> 00:17:47,400
life is manifested on a stage. 
That's the whole point of drama.

242
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:54,900
It takes the activities and the 
experiences and the attitudes of

243
00:17:54,900 --> 00:18:00,700
vocabulary, all of these things 
of life and puts it out there on

244
00:18:00,700 --> 00:18:03,600
display. 
I wonder Shakespeare thought 

245
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,900
when he said all the world's a 
stage and all of us are merely 

246
00:18:07,900 --> 00:18:11,100
players. 
He had this kind of character in

247
00:18:11,100 --> 00:18:18,000
mind and it thinks about those 
that separate precept from 

248
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,000
practice. 
Are those that separate talk 

249
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:27,200
from walk? 
And I think this is what the 

250
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,900
admonition is pushing us toward 
getting rid of all. 

251
00:18:32,300 --> 00:18:37,100
False pretenses. 
And so this term that Jesus uses

252
00:18:37,100 --> 00:18:45,000
as a name and a designation, you
Hypocrites, had a lot of meaning

253
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,300
to it. 
And the thing that was most 

254
00:18:48,500 --> 00:18:53,100
notable to me, is the 
realization that Jesus is 

255
00:18:53,700 --> 00:18:58,500
telling us not to judge. 
He's telling us. 

256
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,900
That we are not to be like the 
Pharisees. 

257
00:19:05,300 --> 00:19:10,700
He's telling us. 
How we are to live our lives. 

258
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,200
And he is telling us about the 
expectation. 

259
00:19:23,500 --> 00:19:27,400
And all the world all the time. 
Jesus knows he is the judge. 

260
00:19:30,100 --> 00:19:35,000
The very one admonishing. 
They're very one encouraging, a 

261
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:42,300
very one instructing. and as we 
find, as we end this to Sermon 

262
00:19:42,500 --> 00:19:48,500
on the Mount, the one teaching 
with great Authority, the reason

263
00:19:48,500 --> 00:19:50,400
he had great Authority was who 
he is. 

264
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:56,200
He himself is the judge. 
So finally as I wind up let me 

265
00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:01,800
just hear John's gospel. 
The teaching of John's gospel 

266
00:20:02,100 --> 00:20:07,100
around this subject. 
The father judges no one but has

267
00:20:07,100 --> 00:20:12,400
given all judgment to the son. 
That all may honor the son just 

268
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,300
as they honor the father, 
whoever does not honor the son 

269
00:20:16,300 --> 00:20:19,700
does not honor, the father who 
sent him. 

270
00:20:21,100 --> 00:20:24,400
Truly truly, I say to you, 
whoever hears my word and 

271
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,500
believes him who sent me has 
eternal life. 

272
00:20:28,100 --> 00:20:32,100
He does not come into judgment 
but has passed from Death To 

273
00:20:32,100 --> 00:20:34,900
Life. 
John is giving us now the very 

274
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:39,600
words of Jesus. 
For as the father has life in 

275
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,200
himself. 
So he has granted the son also 

276
00:20:42,300 --> 00:20:46,400
to have life in himself and he 
has given him authority to 

277
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:51,000
execute judgment because he is 
the son of man. 

278
00:20:54,300 --> 00:20:58,800
Do not Marvel at this for an 
hour is coming, when all who are

279
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:03,800
in the tombs, will hear his 
voice and come out those who 

280
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,300
have done, good to the 
resurrection of life. 

281
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:15,300
And those who have done evil to 
the resurrection of Judgment. 

282
00:21:14,208 --> 00:21:15,300
Judgment.
