00:00on what's going on Zionist Nation so we're reading Acts 14 1 through 18 Paul and Barnabas in Iconium
00:06the same thing occurred in Iconium where Paul and Barnabas went into the Jewish synagogue and spoke
00:12in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks became believers but the unbelieving
00:18Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers so they remained for a
00:25long time speaking boldly for the Lord who testified to the word of his grace by granting
00:31signs and wonders to be done through them to be done through them but the residents but the residents
00:37of the city were divided some sided with the Jews and some with the apostles and when an attempt was
00:44made by both Gentiles and Jews with their rulers to maltreat them and to stone them the apostles
00:50the apostles learned of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe and Derbe and Derbe cities of Lyconia
00:57and to the surrounding country like a like a Cub Scout Derbe cities of Lyconia and to the surrounding
01:06country and there they continued proclaiming the good news Paul and Barnabas and Lystra and Derbe
01:13and Lystra there was a man sitting who could not use his feet and had never walked for he had
01:19never
01:19excuse me for he had been crippled from birth he listened to Paul as he was speaking and Paul
01:25looking at him intently and seeing that he had faith to be healed said in a loud voice stand upright
01:31on your feet and the man sprang up and began to walk when the crowd saw what Paul had done
01:37they shouted in the Lyconian language the gods have come down to us in human form and the gods have
01:44come down to us in human form Barnabas they called Zeus and Paul they called Hermes Hermes because he
01:52was the chief speaker the priest of Zeus whose temple was just outside the city brought oxen and
01:58garlands to the gates I didn't know they talked about Zeus and Hermes in the Bible no one did man
02:03Josh everyone came whose temple was just outside the city brought oxen and garlands to the gates
02:09he and the crowds wanted to offer sacrifice when the apostles Barnabas and Paul excuse me when the
02:15apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it they tore their clothes and rushed out into the crowd shouting
02:20friends why are you doing this we are not mortals excuse me we are mortals just like you
02:25and we bring you good news that you should turn from these worthless things to the living God
02:30who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them
02:39in past generations he allowed all the nations to follow their own ways yet he has not left himself
02:44without a witness in doing good giving you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons and filling you
02:50with food and your hearts with joy even with these words they scarcely restrained the crowds from
02:57offering sacrifice to them yeah well they can offer sacrifice to God right I offer sacrifices to God
03:03what's the problem with that all right let's put our fucking gold catholic way I mean I sacrificed
03:07chicken I sacrificed beef right but didn't I sacrifice beef one time
03:15you disagree with them as long as they weren't sacrificing to them specifically that's what the
03:20problem was they were sacrificing to Paul and Barnabas specifically not to not to the god of
03:25Paul and Barnabas they fucking came because they weren't really holy enough to offer sacrifices like
03:29that that's a job for priests right right I see even Paul and Barnabas were from the tribe of Judah
03:36there were no Levites around to really offer a sacrifice like that yeah there was really no way
03:43to offer a sacrifice to God yeah not in the kingdom of Judah in the time of trouble hide us
03:49in the shadow
03:49of your wing oh I see they were saying the priest can offer a sacrifice to God right no no
03:56not without
03:56the Levites the Levites are the priestly tribe there's really nobody to offer a sacrifice to God
04:05gosh they fucking came down rage behind your wildest understanding
04:14okay in the time of trouble hide us in the shadow of your wing English mystic Julian of Norwich said
04:22the mother's service is nearest readiest and surest it is nearest because because it is more natural
04:29readiest because it is most loving and surest because it is truest no one ever might or could
04:36perform this office fully except only Jesus we know that all our mothers bear us for pain and for
