And it is understood that by the 165 00:14:15,300 --> 00:14:19,770 courts that such a vow has a religious significance. 166 00:14:19,780 --> 00:14:24,510 Nandito parlance is an aspect of learning portrayal but it has 167 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,070 this. It is anchored towards honouring 168 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,480 God in terms of speaking the truth. 169 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:37,550 Summing up and Kinect kilala Nat kini kilala natin ang dios para 170 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:43,750 maging witness sating panopa.

That's why it makes oath taking 173 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:57,000 a very serious matter. Then at Nakita Nagano, Kasari 174 00:14:57,010 --> 00:15:01,730 also hung aspettato as we take our oath, as we take our vows 175 00:15:02,270 --> 00:15:15,030 for God at night. Nakita Young and I think kya 176 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,530 Pata Hindi natin itapatikana take for granted. 177 00:15:19,100 --> 00:15:23,670 We are not take this lightly. We are not encouraged to do it 178 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:28,670 as if just doing it for the sake of doing it, or even we are not 179 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,690 encouraged to make them often, but all the more for us to be 180 00:15:32,700 --> 00:15:37,540 reminded that we always take it seriously for an oath that is 181 00:15:37,590 --> 00:15:43,900 unnecessary, again, for an oath that is unnecessary is an abuse 182 00:15:43,950 --> 00:15:46,800 of the name of the Lord. That's a problem. 183 00:15:46,810 --> 00:15:50,020 And that's the reality here.

For example, Ponta Puta is a 255 00:21:46,730 --> 00:21:56,380 Genesis 21, genesis 21 versus 22 to 24 teachers in Genesis 21. 256 00:21:56,390 --> 00:22:03,370 See, Abraham Young began, Somebody said verse 22 at the 257 00:22:03,380 --> 00:22:07,230 time Abimelech and feet called the commander of his army said 258 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:11,930 said to Abraham, God is with you in all that you do, You know, 259 00:22:11,940 --> 00:22:16,150 Sabika Abraham.

Furthermore, as we move further 268 00:22:54,940 --> 00:22:57,940 Makita natin dito sa Jacob Jacob number. 269 00:22:57,950 --> 00:23:05,210 I'm like began a young vow.

This heap is a witness and A and 272 00:23:17,140 --> 00:23:21,610 a pillar is a witness that I will not pass over this heap to 273 00:23:21,620 --> 00:23:26,530 you and you will not pass over this heap and this pillar to me 274 00:23:26,580 --> 00:23:30,400 to do harm. You know cousin Daniela and the 275 00:23:30,410 --> 00:23:34,190 God of Abraham and the God of Lahore and the God of their 276 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:39,610 father judge between us. So Jacob swore by the fear of 277 00:23:39,620 --> 00:23:44,460 his father Isaac. Hence, and I said Jacob Dal, he 278 00:23:44,470 --> 00:23:49,200 swore by the fear of his father Asac little margin and assigning 279 00:23:49,210 --> 00:23:56,790 Palin and Diaz Dito with the fear of his father Isaac Casey 280 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,160 Paramathma Indian attention. It is not in a literal sense 281 00:24:00,170 --> 00:24:03,970 that by the fear of his father Isaac, but rather it is 282 00:24:03,980 --> 00:24:06,530 reference to God himself vagina being. 283 00:24:06,540 --> 00:24:14,880 It is the fear of of his father Isaac Genesis 31 verse 42 in 284 00:24:14,890 --> 00:24:18,700 which on Sabadito. If the God of my father, the God 285 00:24:18,710 --> 00:24:24,220 of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac had not been on my side, 286 00:24:24,290 --> 00:24:27,820 surely now you would have sent me away empty handed. 287 00:24:27,890 --> 00:24:31,260 So because of being young fear of Isaac it pertains to God 288 00:24:31,270 --> 00:24:36,590 himself casino titles or identifiers that Patton called 289 00:24:36,730 --> 00:24:41,230 sating dios the God of my father, the God of Abraham and 290 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:45,720 the fear of Isaac. So they've taken an oath in the 291 00:24:45,730 --> 00:24:50,950 name of the Lord. This present and what Jacob did 292 00:24:51,700 --> 00:24:56,190 before God and before leaving. And so by means of an oath, 293 00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:01,530 Abraham and Jacob made a solemn promise that they that the word 294 00:25:01,540 --> 00:25:08,160 they spoke could be trusted. It establishes assets, Daniela. 295 00:25:08,230 --> 00:25:14,290 It establishes that that that foundation Nakayama Pakkathula 296 00:25:14,300 --> 00:25:24,760 and human main menu Joshua is a book of Joshua Joshua 9 concern 297 00:25:24,770 --> 00:25:29,700 dumating ama gibby nightscape Joshua Israel union aspect or 298 00:25:29,710 --> 00:25:33,140 scenario NATO.

But the oath is still needed so 461 00:38:59,270 --> 00:39:04,180 that we might declare with certainty the things that are 462 00:39:04,190 --> 00:39:08,880 true.

And in His mercy the Lord does 488 00:41:22,660 --> 00:41:27,050 not only command us to use His name when making a lawful oath, 489 00:41:27,750 --> 00:41:32,350 but to maintain the and promote the truth because He has done 490 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:36,290 the same. He gives to us the promise of 491 00:41:36,300 --> 00:41:39,150 the covenant under the oath as well in the bassinet. 492 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:43,660 And say Hebrews chapter 6, verse 13 to 18. 493 00:41:44,180 --> 00:41:49,270 It says here, For when God made the promise to Abraham, since he 494 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:55,250 had no greater, since he had no one greater by whom to swear, he 495 00:41:55,260 --> 00:42:01,670 swore by himself, saying, Surely I will bless you and multiply 496 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,190 you.

So that by two unchangeable 504 00:42:32,940 --> 00:42:37,530 things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled 505 00:42:37,540 --> 00:42:43,070 for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to 506 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:48,690 the hopes set before us. The promise of God that we have 507 00:42:48,700 --> 00:42:52,510 received is something that we all should always hold on. 508 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:57,470 Because that is true, the oath is needed so that we might be 509 00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:02,170 convinced of what is true for the glory of God and for the 510 00:43:02,180 --> 00:43:05,850 good of man. And as we proceed to our second 511 00:43:05,860 --> 00:43:11,040 point, the significance of the oath bracketing ABBA importante 512 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:16,900 and importance.

It is because the Lord has 538 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:17,110 redeemed us to be His people. That's why we could swear on His 539 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:22,190 name is that we are to fear the Lord, not to take advantage of 540 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:26,350 it, not to take Him lightly, but to fear Him with reverence and 541 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:31,030 trembling, to walk in His ways and to love Him and to serve Him 542 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:36,130 with all our heart and our soul.

And in addition to this, taking 558 00:46:52,630 --> 00:46:57,030 the name of the Lord on our lips is a form as a form of an oath. 559 00:46:57,170 --> 00:47:01,290 It's not just a testimony to the truthfulness of what we say in 560 00:47:01,300 --> 00:47:04,340 the language, Tosa party testifying at Anatolia 561 00:47:04,350 --> 00:47:10,160 Martinsen, but rather it is also a testimony to the truth of the 562 00:47:10,170 --> 00:47:13,660 Word of God.

When you speak the truth for the 589 00:49:23,500 --> 00:49:27,950 sake of glorifying God, for the sake of promoting the 590 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:34,090 truthfulness of things that we witness, His name is glorified. 591 00:49:34,540 --> 00:49:39,750 For then our truthfulness bears witness to the truthfulness of 592 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:43,500 God in Christ.
