S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
The last time we studied about the doctrine
0:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
of creation and
0:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
linked to creation is the doctrine of
0:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
providence.
0:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So today we are going to look into the
0:18
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
doctrine of providence.
0:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Now turn to your theology for every Christian,
0:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
page 41.
0:24
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Let's look at this for a
0:29
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
definition of providence.
0:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
What does providence mean?
0:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Look at page 41.
0:35
S… Speaker 2 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Under
0:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the decrees of God,
0:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the eternal decrees,
0:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the decrees of God are His
0:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
decisions made before
0:54
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the foundation of the world,
0:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
what God wants to or intends to
1:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
do with this world that
1:04
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He has created.
1:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And so here,
1:08
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
under the eternal decrees,
1:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
we have this explained to us.
1:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
What are the decrees of God?
1:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
The decrees of God are His eternal purpose,
1:17
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
according to the counsel of His will,
1:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
whereby,
1:22
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
for His own glory,
1:24
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He hath foreordained whatsoever comes to pass.
1:27
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And this is from the Westminster Shorter Catechism,
1:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
question number 7.
1:31
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And tied to the eternal decrees of
1:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God is His providence.
1:39
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So what are God's...
1:41
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
works of providence is from question 11 from the shorter
1:45
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
catechism and the answer is god's works of
1:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
providence are his most holy wise and powerful
1:54
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
preserving and governing all his creatures and
1:59
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
all their actions right so this is providence
2:04
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and and the word providence
2:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Although not found in the Bible,
2:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
it's definitely a biblical concept,
2:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
a biblical teaching and doctrine.
2:15
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And the word providence comes from the Latin provideo,
2:21
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
pro meaning before,
2:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and then video,
2:29
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
that's where you get
2:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the word video,
2:34
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to view,
2:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to watch,
2:38
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to see.
2:39
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So it has to do
2:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
with sight.
2:47
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And literally,
2:49
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
it has to do with foreseeing,
2:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
foreviewing,
2:54
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and has to do with his foreknowing and foreknowledge.
2:58
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So providence has to do with this whole concept
3:02
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
of God knowing way ahead of time what
3:06
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
he intends to do and what he will fulfill in the
3:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
history of the universe of mankind.
3:16
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
But take note that providence is not just His
3:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
foreknowing.
3:21
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It's not passive here,
3:24
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
not passive foreknowledge.
3:26
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God knowing what is in the future,
3:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and then He does nothing about it.
3:32
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It has to do with God's omniscience,
3:36
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
His foreknowing,
3:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and then His decrees,
3:39
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
what He plans to do in time.
3:41
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
His decisions made even before time.
3:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So not only for knowledge,
3:48
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but for action.
3:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It has to do with this.
3:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
For action.
3:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Not just for knowing,
3:55
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but for doing.
3:57
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So here,
4:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
it has the active sense of the foreknowledge of God.
4:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And of course,
4:06
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
providence.
4:06
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God not only foreknew,
4:08
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
when He foreknew,
4:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He also supplies and provides.
4:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
The word provide comes from this word too.
4:19
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Providence from provide.
4:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God knowing ahead of time what we require,
4:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
what we need,
4:24
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and then He provides.
4:26
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He supplies.
4:28
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He gives what we need.
4:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So here,
4:32
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the foreknowledge of God in providence includes
4:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
His preservation.
4:38
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
That's what we read here in the Shorter Catechism.
4:42
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
His powerful preserving,
4:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
His preservation.
4:45
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So it involves His...
4:49
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
preservation, as
4:55
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
well as his governance.
5:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So he is very active in his providence,
5:04
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in his providing,
5:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in his provisions for men,
5:08
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
for the world,
5:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
for what he has created.
5:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So here we have his most holy
5:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and wise,
5:15
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
powerful, preserving and governing all his creatures and
5:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
all their actions.
5:21
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So this is a twin doctrine of
5:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
creation.
5:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
If there is creation,
5:28
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
there must be providence.
5:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
If there's providence,
5:31
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
there must be creation.
5:32
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So these two doctrines,
5:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
these two concepts go together.
5:38
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
One cannot do without the other.
5:40
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Although there are those who deny providence,
5:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
they say,
5:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
yes, God created the whole universe,
5:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but then after that,
5:48
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
went on a holiday,
5:49
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
went on a vacation,
5:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and then didn't bother to take care,
5:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
oversee, supervise,
5:55
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
or maintain,
5:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
sustain this whole universe.
5:57
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Just left it to run on its own.
6:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And this is the heresy of deism.
6:03
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It's
6:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
a heresy from the Latin de,
6:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
meaning God.
6:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
But this view argues that it says,
6:17
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
yes, we believe God exists.
6:18
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Yes,
6:19
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
he created the whole universe.
6:21
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
But then that's it.
6:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
After that,
6:24
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
he went on vacation and then didn't bother anymore.
6:28
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Didn't take care of creation.
6:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Just left things on its own,
6:32
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
running on its own.
6:34
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And then that's it.
6:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And of course,
6:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
tied to Dism is this whole idea of fatalism.
6:41
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Okay, fatalism.
6:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Another philosophy of life,
6:45
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
fatalism,
6:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
you know, talking about fate.
6:48
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And you hear people talking like this,
6:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
if bad things happen,
6:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
it's my fate.
6:54
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Fatalism,
6:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
which is a very pessimistic view of the
7:01
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
world.
7:03
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
The pessimistic view of life.
7:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Life that is meaningless and really without hope.
7:07
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Because nobody cares.
7:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
K -sera -sera,
7:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
whatever will be,
7:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
will be.
7:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I hope this is not your attitude when you
7:18
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
study this course.
7:19
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
K -sera -sera,
7:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
whatever will be,
7:21
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
will be.
7:21
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So when exam comes,
7:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
K -sera -sera,
7:24
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
whatever will be,
7:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
will be.
7:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I don't have to study,
7:27
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I don't have to do whatever will be,
7:28
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
will be.
7:29
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I hope it's not the case.
7:34
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It's not fatalism.
7:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Fatalism,
7:37
S… Speaker 3 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
right,
7:38
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
this idea of fate is pessimistic,
7:39
S… Speaker 4 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
meaningless, hopeless,
7:41
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and it's fatal.
7:42
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It's fatal.
7:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And also very irresponsible.
7:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Because it says,
7:49
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
fatalism,
7:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
practically speaking,
7:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
also says,
7:52
S… Speaker 5 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
since, you know,
7:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God doesn't care,
7:54
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God doesn't bother,
7:57
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
then I can do what I want,
8:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
what I like.
8:02
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
There's no accountability.
8:03
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I won't be answering to God.
8:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He's absent.
8:06
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He's an absentee God.
8:08
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Deism and fatalism has the idea of an absentee
8:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God. So I can do what I want.
8:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He's not in control.
8:16
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So I have to take matters into my own hand.
8:19
S… Speaker 5 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And then,
8:20
S… Speaker 4 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
you know,
8:21
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I make all the decisions.
8:22
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I do what I want.
8:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
There's no accountability.
8:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
What is right and wrong is determined by no one and
8:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
pretty much by me.
8:31
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So they
8:36
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
live their life like this.
8:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And of course,
8:39
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
this will only lead to a messy,
8:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
chaotic life without any meaning,
8:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
without any direction,
8:47
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
without any care for oneself or for the other person.
8:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I mean,
8:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
whatever will be,
8:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
will be.
8:54
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And if bad things happen,
8:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
it's just,
8:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
well, it's just my bad luck or,
9:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
you know,
9:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
it's my fate.
9:01
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
That's all.
9:02
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
There's no accountability.
9:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And there's no moral responsibility
9:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to strive to do that which is good and right,
9:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
not only for oneself,
9:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but also for the other.
9:15
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So fatalism and deism are
9:19
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
all very...
9:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
self -destructive philosophies and
9:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
thinking.
9:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
The Bible teaches God exists.
9:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God is creator.
9:32
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And our God is a
9:36
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
hands -on God.
9:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He is supervising.
9:40
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He is overseeing every single thing that happens on
9:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
earth.
9:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And nothing happens by chance.
9:47
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He already knew everything that's going to happen.
9:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
In the whole universe,
9:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
not only at the macro level,
9:54
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but also at the micro level.
9:55
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
You know, the details.
9:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Even your hair,
9:59
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the hairs on your...
10:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
ahead are all numbered and one will not drop without God knowing.
10:03
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So every single thing is already pre -planned,
10:07
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
pre -ordered by God and God will carry out His plans
10:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
according to His will.
10:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Nothing happens by chance.
10:17
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
The thing is this,
10:18
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
we better know this God.
10:22
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
We better know His mind.
10:24
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
We better know His heart.
10:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
We better know what He requires of us.
10:27
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
We better know who He truly is,
10:29
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the living and true God,
10:31
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
not following after the wrong God,
10:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but the right God.
10:34
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And if we know Him and we believe in Him and His
10:38
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
beloved Son,
10:39
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the Lord Jesus Christ,
10:40
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
who came to give Himself for us,
10:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
died for our sins,
10:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to be raised from the dead,
10:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and then to be the life giver,
10:48
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the resurrection life,
10:49
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
if we believe on Him,
10:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
then we fall into His good plan.
10:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Or else,
10:55
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
it's going to be a bad plan.
10:57
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And our ultimate end is destruction.
11:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
But if we belong to Him,
11:02
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
we are in His good plan,
11:03
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
life becomes very meaningful.
11:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Life becomes one that has direction.
11:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
We know where we come from.
11:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
We know why we are here.
11:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
We know where we'll be going.
11:15
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And then life will be full of hope,
11:17
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
full of optimism.
11:19
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Not fatalism,
11:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
pessimistic,
11:22
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but full of hope and optimism because God
11:26
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
is in charge.
11:28
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He is in control.
11:29
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And you're sitting where you
11:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
are tonight.
11:34
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It's already been planned by God,
11:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
ordained by God.
11:38
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And you're here because God wants you to be here for
11:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
your own good,
11:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
you see.
11:45
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And then if that is the case,
11:47
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
then I must be accountable and responsible to pay attention
11:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to His word,
11:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to what is being taught,
11:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to really know God more and more so that I may live my life rightly
11:58
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
before Him and worship Him for who He is.
12:01
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
You see, then good things will come out.
12:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
You see, the philosophy,
12:07
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
your philosophy of life must be determined by good
12:11
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
theology.
12:11
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
That's why you're here.
12:15
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So the providence of God is a very,
12:17
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
very precious and powerful doctrine.
12:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So please understand this.
12:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So providence.
12:27
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
How to define providence in simple terms?
12:31
S… Speaker 6 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Well,
12:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I put it this way.
12:34
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Providence is this,
12:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
right?
12:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God is on the throne and He is
12:39
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in control.
12:40
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
In very simple terms,
12:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
what is providence?
12:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I state it this way,
12:47
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
God is on the throne and He is
12:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in control.
12:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
That's providence for you,
12:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
theologically and practically speaking.
13:01
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And of course,
13:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
if God is on the throne and He's in control,
13:07
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
then man,
13:08
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
our duty,
13:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
is to know Him and His will
13:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and His word.
13:18
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in order that we might do it,
13:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
do the will and the word of God,
13:22
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in order that we might succeed
13:26
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in our spiritual life.
13:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Now,
13:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
take note that providence is
13:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
very much tied to another doctrine of scripture,
13:40
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
which is the
13:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
doctrine of predestination.
13:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
of providence,
13:54
S… Speaker 6 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
right,
13:55
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
is very much linked to the doctrine of predestination
14:00
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
as well.
14:01
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Now, predestination,
14:03
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
providence,
14:04
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
all these concepts,
14:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
where can we find in the scriptures?
14:07
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Well,
14:08
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
many places,
14:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but let us just look at one.
14:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Turn to Ephesians chapter 1.
14:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Ephesians chapter 1.
14:16
S… Speaker 2 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Alright,
14:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
let's look at Ephesians chapter 1,
14:34
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
verse 3.
14:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Let us look at verse 3 to verse 11.
14:41
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And let us read responsibly.
14:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Ephesians chapter 1 verse 3 to verse 11.
14:47
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Let me begin.
14:47
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Blessed be the God and Father of our
14:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Lord Jesus Christ,
14:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly
14:57
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
places in Christ.
15:01
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Having predestinated
15:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to
15:16
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Himself according to the good pleasure of His will,
15:20
S… Speaker 2 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in
15:28
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
whom we have redemption through His blood,
15:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the forgiveness of sins according to the riches of His grace.
15:34
S… Speaker 2 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Having
15:40
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
made known unto us the mystery of
15:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
His will according to His good pleasure which He hath
15:48
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
purposed in Himself.
16:04
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
In whom,
16:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
together,
16:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in whom also we have obtained an inheritance,
16:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
being predestinated according to the purpose
16:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
of him who worketh all things after the counsel of
16:18
S… Speaker 4 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
his own will.
16:19
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Take note,
16:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the last verse there,
16:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
verse 11.
16:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
In whom also we have obtained an inheritance,
16:26
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
being predestinated,
16:28
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
foreknown and forechosen by God,
16:31
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
way ahead of time.
16:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Even before the foundation of the world,
16:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
according to the purpose of him who worketh
16:41
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
all things,
16:42
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
all things,
16:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
all things that happen in the whole universe,
16:46
S… Speaker 7 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in the whole world,
16:47
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
in history, who worketh all things after the counsel
16:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
of his own will,
16:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
his decrees,
16:54
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
acted out in providence.
16:58
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And all due to His predestination,
17:01
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
election of us to belong to Him,
17:04
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to be His children,
17:05
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and to be part of His good plan for us.
17:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It's a wonderful thing.
17:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It's a comforting thought,
17:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
dear friends.
17:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And that's why tied to this is this...
17:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
The whole idea of salvation from beginning to end,
17:24
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
this unbroken chain,
17:25
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
once He has started this good work in us,
17:28
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He will complete it in the day of Christ.
17:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
You turn to Romans 8.
17:31
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And
17:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
that's why,
17:36
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
now if there is a God of providence,
17:38
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and He is watching over everything in
17:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
this whole wide universe,
17:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
whole wide world,
17:45
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
even our lives,
17:47
S… Speaker 2 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
past,
17:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
present, and future,
17:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
then we can have...
17:53
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Confidence that nothing happens by chance.
17:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And whatever happens,
17:58
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
we are always safe and secure in the Lord Jesus
18:02
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Christ. Because He has already decided for us a good plan.
18:06
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He has a good will for us.
18:08
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And then He would lead and direct
18:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
us in the right way.
18:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Even when we go wrong,
18:16
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He will cause us to U -turn,
18:19
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
repent,
18:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and then return to the right way.
18:23
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
So, and that's why we can say all these words here,
18:27
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and that's why Paul can say all these words here in Romans 8,
18:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
28,
18:31
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to all who belong to the Lord.
18:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
I think it's good for us to read this whole passage and
18:37
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
read it with this in mind,
18:38
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
the providence of God in mind.
18:40
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He is on the throne and He is in control.
18:43
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Responsibly now,
18:45
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Romans 8,
18:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
28 to verse 39.
18:49
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And here we read verse 28,
18:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And we know,
18:52
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
we know that all things work together for good to them
18:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
that love God,
18:57
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
to them who are called according to His purpose.
18:59
S… Speaker 2 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Take
19:12
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
note, whom He did foreknow,
19:14
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
right?
19:15
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
His providence,
19:16
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
His knowing ahead of time,
19:17
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
and then knowing ahead,
19:19
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He acted on it,
19:20
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He chose us,
19:22
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
predestined us to be conformed to the image of His Son.
19:25
S… Speaker 7 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Moreover,
19:27
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
whom He did predestinate,
19:29
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
then He also called.
19:31
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And whom he called,
19:32
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
them he also justified.
19:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
And whom he justified,
19:35
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
them he also glorified.
19:38
S… Speaker 2 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
He
19:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
that spared not his own son,
19:48
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
but delivered him up for us all,
19:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
how shall he not with
19:56
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
him also freely give us all things?
20:06
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Who is he that condemneth?
20:07
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
It is Christ that died,
20:09
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
yea, rather,
20:10
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
that is risen again,
20:11
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
who is even at the right hand of God,
20:13
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
who also maketh intercession for us.
20:16
S… Speaker 2 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
As
20:29
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
it is written,
20:30
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
For thy sake we are killed all the day long,
20:33
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
20:44
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
Together, verse 38 and 39.
20:46
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
For I am persuaded that neither death,
20:50
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
nor life,
20:51
S… Speaker 1 (Video Lecture 1 - Week 10)
