00:24secrets are hid cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of thy
00:31Holy Spirit that we may perfectly love thee and worthily magnify thy holy name
00:38through Jesus Christ our Lord Amen

13:47you.
20:53too and if we are in Mara today where the water is bitter and nothing but the wood of the
21:01tree
21:01that grows there can never sweeten it we will surely be that alien tomorrow where there are
21:08the 12 wells and the 70 palm trees the chart is right and the chart says that the end of
21:15it
21:15is the land that flows with milk and honey he has told us this if there had been anything worse
21:22than
21:22this he would have told us that if it were not so I would have told you sorrow foretold deepens
21:32our
21:32confidence in our guide sorrow that comes punctually in accordance with his word clearly comes in
21:41obedience to his will our Lord uses a little word in this context which is very significant he says
21:50when their hour is come their hour namely the time allotted to them but allotted by whom allotted by
22:02him he could tell that they would come because it was as his instruments that they came their time was
22:10his appointment it was only an hour a definite appointed and brief period in accordance with his
22:18loving purpose it certainly takes all sorts of weathers to make a year and after all the sorts of
22:27weathers have run their course and the years results are realized and the calm comes again and so the
22:34good old hymn with this rhythm that speaks at once of fear and triumph has caught the true meaning of
22:41these
22:42words of our Lord's why should I complain of want or distress temptation or pain he told me no less
22:51these
22:52things have I spoken to you that you will not be offended secondly still further let us know to our
23:01Lord's
23:01loving reasons for being silent in the past these things I did not say in the in the beginning because
23:10I was with you
23:13of course there had been in his early ministry hints and some plain references to persecution and
23:20trial but we should not restrict these things off the text do only that but rather include the whole of
23:28the previous chapter in which he sets out the sorrow and the hostility which his servants have to endure in
23:34their true light as being the consequences of their union with him and the closeness and identity of life
23:42and fate between the vine and its branches in so systematic and detailed fashion and with such an exhibition of
23:52the
23:52grounds of its necessity our Lord had not spoken of the world's hostility in his earlier ministry but had reserved
24:00it for
24:01these last moments and the reason why he had given but passing hints was because he was there what a
24:09superb confidence
24:10that expresses in his ability to shield his poor followers from anything that might hurt or harm them he spreads
24:20the
24:20ample robe of his protection over them or rather to go back over his own metaphor as a hen gathers
24:27her chickens
24:28under her wings and so he gathers them to his own breast and stretches over them that which is at
24:36once protection
24:37and warmth keeping them safe as long as he is there no harm will come to them but he is
24:47going away and so it is time to speak
24:49and we speak more plainly
24:53that's two yields for us dear brothers and sisters truths that apply to us quite as much as to that
25:00little group of silent
25:02listeners on that distant day for us to difficulties and sorrows they foretold in general terms are largely hidden until
25:13they are much nearer it would have been of little use for christ to have spoken more plainly in those
25:19early days of his ministry
25:23the disciples have managed to forget or at least misunderstand his plain utterances for instance about his own death and
25:32his resurrection
25:34there needs to be an adaptation between the hearing ear and the spoken word in order that the spoken word
25:42should be of use
25:44and there are great tracts of scripture dealing with sorrows which lie perfectly dark and dead to us until experience
25:52vitalizes them
25:56the greeks used to send messages from one army to another by means of a roll of parchment twisted around
26:02the baton and then written on
26:06it was perfectly unintelligible should it fall into a man's hands if they did not have a corresponding baton to
26:13twist it upon
26:16many of christ's messages to us are like that you can only understand the utterances when life gives you the
26:23frame around which to wrap them
26:25and then they flash up into meeting meaning and we say at once he told us it all before
26:31i scarcely knew what he had told me until this moment when i needed
26:38it is merciful that there should be a gradual unveiling of what is to come
26:43that the road should wind and that we should only see a short way in front of us
26:50do you not ever perhaps say to yourselves if i had known all this before
26:54i do not think i could have faced up to it
26:58did you not feel how good and kind and loving it was
27:02that in the revelation there had been concealment and that while jesus christ had told us in general terms
27:09that we must expect sorrow and trial this specific form of sorrow and trial
27:16had not been foreseen by us until we came close to it
27:21thank god for the loving reticence and for the as loving eloquence of speech
27:26and of his silence with regard to the sorrow
27:31and take this lesson one step further
27:34there ought to be in all our lives
27:37times of close and blessed communication
27:40and communion with our master
27:43when the sense of his presence with us
27:45begs all thoughts of sorrow and trial in the future
27:49out of place and needlessly disturbing
27:54if the disciples had drunk in the spirit of jesus christ when they were with him
27:58they would not have been so bewildered when he left them
28:02when he was near with them
28:04there was something better for them to do than be over exquisite
28:07to cast the fashion of us uncertain evils in the future
28:12namely to grow into his life
28:14to drink in the sweetness of his presence
28:16to be molded into the likeness of his character
28:20to understand him better
28:22and then to realize his nearness and more fully
28:28brothers and sisters for us there are times
28:30and it is our own fault if they are not frequent and blessed
28:35when thus in such an hour of sweet communion with the present christ
28:39all the future will be radiant and calm
28:42if we look into it or better
28:44the present will be so blessed
28:46that there will be no need to think of the future
28:51these men in the upper chamber
28:52if they had learnt all the lessons that he was teaching them then
28:56would not have gone out to sleep in gethsemane
29:00and to tell lies in the high priest's hall
29:03to fly like frightened sheep from the cross
29:06and to despair at the tomb
29:09you and I if we sit at his table
29:12and keep our hearts near him
29:14eating and drinking of the heavenly manner
29:17shall go in the strength of that meat
29:19forty days into the wilderness and say
29:22even let the unknown tomorrow ring with it what it may
29:29finally and for the sake of completeness
29:31let us consider the final thought in these pregnant verses
29:36the imperfect apprehension of our Lord's words
29:40which leads to sorrow instead of joy
29:46I go my way to him who sent me and none of you asks
29:49where do you go
29:51but because I have said these things to you
29:54sorrow has filled your heart
29:57he has been telling them
29:59and it was the one definite idea that they gathered from his words
30:02that he was going away
30:05and what did they say
30:07going
30:07what is going to happen to us
30:12if there had been a little less selfishness
30:15and a little more love
30:16and if they had put their question
30:18going
30:19what is to become of him
30:21then it would not have been sorrow
30:23that would have filled their hearts
30:24but the joy
30:25that would have flooded out of all the sorrow
30:28and the winter of their discontent
30:30would have been changed into a glorious summer
30:33because he was going to the one who had sent him
30:36that is to say
30:38he was going home with his work done
30:40and his message accomplished
30:43and so if they had only overlooked their own selfishness
30:48and the bearing of his departure as it seemed to them on themselves
30:52and thought of it as little as it affected him
30:55they would have found that all the oppressive
30:58and the dark in it would have disappeared
31:00and they would have been glad and rejoiced
31:05brothers and sisters
31:07that gives us a thought
31:08and which we can only touch today
31:11that the steadfast contemplation
31:13of the ascended Christ
31:15who has gone to the father
31:17with his work finished
31:18is the sovereign antidote
31:21against all sense of separation and solitude
31:23the sovereign power
31:26by which we may face a hostile world
31:28the sovereign cure for every sorrow
31:32if we could live in the light of the great triumphant ascended Lord
31:36then oh how small would be the babble of this world
31:40if the great white throne
31:42and the one who sits upon it were more distinctly in front of us
31:46then we would be able to face anything
31:48and sorrow would become a solemn scorn of ills
31:53and all the transitory would be reduced
31:56into its proper insignificance
31:58and we would be emancipated from free and fear
32:02and every temptation to unfaithfulness and apostasy
32:07look up to the master who has gone before us
32:10and as the dying master outside the city wall
32:13saw the heavens opened and the son of man standing
32:16having sprung to his feet
32:18to help his poor servant at the right hand of God
32:24so with that vision in our eyes
32:26and the light of that face
32:27flashing upon our faces and making them like angels
32:31we shall be masters of grief and care
32:34pain and trial
32:36enmity and disappointment
32:38sorrow and sin
32:40and know that the absent Christ is the present Christ
32:43and that the present Christ is the conquering power in us
32:50dear brothers and sisters
32:52there is nothing else that will make us victors over the world and ourselves
32:57if we can grasp him by our faith
33:00and keep ourselves near him
33:02then union with him as the vine and the branches
33:05which will inevitably result in suffering here
33:09will result as inevitably in joy hereafter
33:14for he will never relax the grasp of his strong hand
33:18until he raises us up to himself
33:22and if so be that we suffer with him
33:26we shall also be glorified together
33:31glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit
33:35as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be
33:39world without end
33:42Amen
33:47from paragraph 13 of our order of service
33:53I believe in one God the Father Almighty
33:56maker of heaven and earth
33:58and of all things visible and invisible
34:02and in one Lord Jesus Christ
34:05the only begotten Son of God
34:07begotten of his Father before all worlds

34:16begotten not made
34:18being of one substance with the Father
34:20by whom all things were made
34:23who for us men and for our salvation
34:26came down from heaven
34:28and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary
34:31was made man and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate
34:38he suffered and was buried and the third day he rose again according to the scriptures
34:44and ascended into heaven and sitteth at the right hand of the Father
34:50and he shall come again in glory to judge both the quick and the dead
34:55whose kingdom shall have no end
34:59and I believe in the Holy Ghost
35:01the Lord the giver of life
35:03who proceeds from the Father
35:05the Father and the Son together
35:08is worshipped and glorified
35:10who spoke by the prophets
35:13and I believe in the Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church
35:17I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins
35:21and I look for the resurrection of the dead
35:24and the life of the world to come
35:27Amen

36:53and grant us with them a share in thy eternal kingdom

37:04for the sake of thy Son our Saviour Jesus Christ
37:08Amen

37:18Jesus the Son of God
37:19Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith
37:23and make our confession to our Heavenly Father
37:30Almighty God our Heavenly Father

37:38and in what we have left undone

38:31that he gave his only begotten Son
38:33to the end that all
38:35who believe in him
38:37should not perish
38:38but have everlasting life
38:44Hear also what St Paul says
39:01If any man sin we have an advocate with the Father
39:05Jesus Christ the righteous
39:07and he is the propitiation for our sins
39:17We do not presume to come to this thy table
39:20O merciful Lord
39:22trusting in our own righteousness
39:24but in thy manifold and great mercies
39:28We are not worthy so much
39:30as to gather up the crumbs under thy table
39:33but thou art the same Lord
39:35whose nature it is always to have mercy
39:39Grant us therefore gracious Lord
39:41so to eat the flesh of thy dear Son
39:44Jesus Christ
39:45and to drink his blood
39:47that we may evermore dwell in him
39:51and he in us
39:53Amen
39:58We are the body of Christ
40:01By one Spirit
40:02we were all baptized into one body
40:06endeavor to keep the unity of the Spirit
40:09in the bond of peace

41:16giving him to be born as man
41:19to die upon the cross

42:53Hear us, O Father, through Christ thy Son our Lord, through him accept our sacrifice of praise, and grant that
43:02these gifts of bread and wine may be unto us his body and blood.
43:08Who in the same night that he was betrayed, took bread.
43:15And when he had given thanks to thee, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, Take, eat.
43:23This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.
43:32Likewise, after supper, he took the cup.
43:37And when he had given thanks to thee, he gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of this, for
43:44this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for you and for many for the remission of
43:49sins.
43:51Do this, as oft as ye shall drink it, in remembrance of me.
44:00Wherefore, O Lord, with this bread and this cup, we make the memorial of his saving passion, his resurrection from
44:07the dead and his glorious ascension into heaven.
44:10And we look for the coming of his kingdom.
44:14We pray thee to accept this our duty and service, and grant that we may so eat and drink these
44:22holy things in the presence of thy divine majesty.
44:26That we may be filled with thy grace and heavenly blessing.
44:32Through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord, by whom and with whom and in whom, in the unity of the
44:39Holy Spirit, all honour and glory be unto thee, O Father Almighty,
44:45from the whole company of earth and heaven, throughout all ages, world without end.
44:53Amen.
44:54Amen.
45:05Amen.
45:37Amen.
45:55Amen.
46:02Amen.
46:09Amen.
46:25Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiten and slough.
46:32Thou shalt make me hear your joy and your end,
46:37that the world which I am wrong, have made it dry.
46:44Hold my face, hold my feet, and hold on all my knees.
46:52Take me a glider, O heart, and leave you all my spirit to me.
47:03Hold my face, hold my face, and hold on all my knees.
47:11O hear you come to me.
47:14O give me the comfort of my heaven again,
47:19and stavish me with my peace, dear me.
47:25Then shall I teach thy ways of fuller women,
47:30and still shall be converted unto me.
47:37Deliver me from blood, guiltiness, O God,
47:42thou that art the God of my head,
47:46and my tongue shall sing of thy righteousness.
47:51Thou shalt open my hymn to gold,
47:55and my tongue shall show thy praise.
47:58For thou desirest no sacrifice,
48:04as could I be with thee,
48:07but thou delightest not in God of my head.
48:13The sacrifice of God is a love of sin,
48:19a broken and conflict of,
48:21O God, shall love of his pride.
48:26the wicked of the ordem,
48:28and their nations of porqueerns,
48:32build the other world of Jerusalem.
48:36Then shall eliver me,
48:38it's the sacrifice of righteousness,
48:42with the burnt offerings and of Russia.
48:47Then shall they offer young bull,
48:50and shall come thy Anyway.
48:55Glory be to the Father
48:59And to the Son
49:02And to the Holy Ghost
49:05As it's watched in the beginning
49:09Is now and ever shall be
49:13And without end
49:16Amen
49:31The cup of blessing which we bless
49:33Is it not a sharing of the blood of Christ?
49:39The bread which we break
49:41Is it not a sharing of the body of Christ?
49:45For we, being many, are one bread, one body
49:50We all partake of the one bread
49:56O Lamb of God that takest away the sins of the world
49:59Have mercy upon us
50:02O Lamb of God that takest away the sins of the world
50:06Have mercy on us
50:10O Lamb of God that takest away the sins of the world
50:14Grant us thy peace

50:33Hallowed be thy name
50:35Thy kingdom come
50:37Thy will be done
50:39On earth as it is in heaven
50:43Give us this day our daily bread
50:46And forgive us our trespasses
50:48As we forgive those who trespass against us
50:53Lead us not into temptation
50:55But deliver us from evil
50:58Amen
51:04Draw near with faith
51:06Receive the body of our Lord Jesus Christ
51:09Which was given for you
