Local wife Danielle Mattson 33 00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:35.439 perked up quickly after hearing the sound of her husband, Dave, 34 00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:38.239 plopping down on the couch, as it instantly reminded her 35 00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:39.879 of all the things she needed him to do for her. 36 00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:40.519 Well. 37 00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:43.120 Her husband had just finished mowing and waiting the yard 38 00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:46.040 after spending all day working at his day job. Danielle 39 00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:49.040 didn't remember all of the pressing tasks she needed him 40 00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:51.599 to complete until she heard his body make contact with 41 00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:55.120 the couch cushions. Oh, Dave, she exclaimed, Can you bring 42 00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:57.079 in the giant bag of flower I bought from Costco 43 00:01:57.159 --> 00:01:58.640 that's in the back of the van in the garage. 44 00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:00.840 I need it right now to make bread for dinner. 45 00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:05.120 It's so heavy. Dave reportedly sighed, savoring the two seconds 46 00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:08.080 he got to enjoy sitting on the couch before slowly 47 00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:11.120 standing up and heading out to the garage. I felt 48 00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.639 my bag contact the couch for a moment and it 49 00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:16.879 felt nice. He said, I'd like to try that again sometime, 50 00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:18.520 but maybe for longer. 51 00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:19.280 It's so good. 52 00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:21.639 Danielle thanked her husband for bringing her the bag of 53 00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:24.800 flower and paws, holding still to see if she could 54 00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:29.520 hear him sit down once again. Dave, are you gonna 55 00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.199 sit down? I could use some help with the dishes 56 00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:35.840 before I start dinner. At publishing time, sources said Dave 57 00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.479 could be heard trying to quote sneak away to the 58 00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:42.599 restroom before daniel Danielle asked him how long he was 59 00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:44.800 planning on being gone, as the garbage needed to be 60 00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:45.280 taken out. 61 00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:50.199 So that's happened to you though, Yeah, so you plopped 62 00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:52.039 down on bed or no. 63 00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:54.479 This is how it works for me. In my house, 64 00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:56.840 my wife had been married for thirty almost thirty three years. 65 00:02:56.960 --> 00:02:59.360 Yep, you guys just celebrated your third we did. 66 00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:02.560 Yes, you've been married so much longer than us, So 67 00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:05.080 we're coming up on thirty three years and. 68 00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:10.240 She knows. So I turned my brain off. 69 00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:11.879 I have kind of a ritual at night, at my 70 00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:14.639 last forty five minutes an hour, I just turn my 71 00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:17.560 brain off. And so I promise you. I laid down 72 00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:19.400 in bed, I'm ready to turn off the light, and 73 00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:21.439 she goes, let me tell about the worst thing that 74 00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:22.759 ever happened to me, and it happened today. We got 75 00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:24.599 to solve it right now, right. We got to talk 76 00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:26.240 about money, we got to talk about how bad the 77 00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:29.240 kids are. And I'm like, we've been together for the 78 00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:31.319 last four hours. You couldn't think of doing it. Then 79 00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:33.199 we got to do it right now. Before I was, 80 00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:35.680 I turned my brain off. I didn't think. You know, 81 00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:37.400 for a living, that's what we do, is we think. 82 00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:40.000 Especially I'm a thinker. That's what I get paid to do. 83 00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:42.599 I turn my brain off so I don't have to 84 00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:45.639 solve any problems. And once I lay my head on 85 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:49.599 my pillow, now's the time that we must have earth 86 00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:53.199 shattering conversation, right, earth shattering yep, yep. 87 00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:58.680 That's so funny. Yeah, well, mine are usually like deeds, 88 00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:02.000 like chores. Right, So I sit down the couch now, 89 00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:06.000 to be fair, the couch is my favorite spot. Yeah yeah, 90 00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:08.960 so I am there quite a bit, right, So if 91 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.960 I'm not doing anything. Even if I'm not even turning 92 00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.840 on the TV or anything like that, I'll usually gravitate 93 00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:17.600 toward that spot, right, you know, if I'm reading, if 94 00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:19.759 I'm on my phone, if i'm talking on the phone, whatever, 95 00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:24.199 usually it's there right in this one seat. But either way, 96 00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.439 when i'm there, it just seems like, oh, you know, 97 00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:29.279 let's get up and do this. And I'm like, okay, 98 00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:31.399 all right, so you know, of course we do it right. 99 00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:35.000 Well, you've been to our house before. So in my room, 100 00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:39.639 we have like a TV room attached to it, right, yeah, 101 00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:42.800 sitting sitting here, and we have two chairs in there 102 00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:44.480 and one of my It's funny how you kind. 103 00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.399 Of have your spot. That's your spot, yep, yep. 104 00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:48.879 And when I get there, man, it's like my happy place. 105 00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:51.360 That's where i'm quiet. It's where everything my whole life 106 00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:53.959 just kind of slows down. When I'm out to the 107 00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:55.879 rest of the house or whatever, it's okay, hey man, 108 00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:57.759 I'm here. Whatever you want me to do, that's fine. 109 00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:01.079 But once I escape there, that's I want to be 110 00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:04.040 heading towards that time when my brain's turned off completely. 111 00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:06.040 I just could go to sleep yep, you know, and 112 00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:08.800 I've told you before, I fall asleep in like five minutes. Yeah, 113 00:05:08.839 --> 00:05:10.839 but it's because I turn my brain off before I 114 00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:13.360 go to bed. I'm not scrolling, I'm not doing those things. 115 00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:15.920 I just turn my brain off and then go to bed. 116 00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:17.839 And that's when she decides. 117 00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:19.639 She's saying, you don't watch TV before you go to 118 00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:23.199 bed sometimes. But it's not anything that matters, right, It's 119 00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:24.680 just like brainless stuff. 120 00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:27.759 Brainless stuff. I'm not I'm not involved with it. 121 00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:29.800 It's just happening in front of me till I can't 122 00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:33.720 stay awake anymore. Yeah, but no, I usually, uh, that's 123 00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:36.120 what I do. But Bonnie wants to come in. Bonnie's 124 00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.720 the same way.

Peace be with you, 186 00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:23.079 he said. As he spoke, he showed them the wounds 187 00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:25.279 in his hands in his side. They were filled with 188 00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:28.360 joy when they saw the Lord again. He said, peace 189 00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:31.439 be with you. As the Father has sent me, so 190 00:08:31.560 --> 00:08:34.519 I am sending you. And then he breathed on them 191 00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:37.759 and said, receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive anyone 192 00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:40.440 sins there forgiven. If you do not forgive them, they 193 00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:41.320 are not forgiven. 194 00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:44.799 And that's that. Well there you go. 195 00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:48.440 Yeah, just a few verses. Yes, so let's break it down, 196 00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:53.879 shall we. Okay, that that Sunday evening, which means that 197 00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:56.960 this is the very Sunday in which. 198 00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.879 He resurrected, right, yes, Sunday yep. 199 00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:05.279 And then other gospels tell us that Thomas wasn't there. 200 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:08.559 Remember, that's correct, it's the very next verse, verse twenty four. 201 00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:09.440 One of the disciples. 202 00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:11.919 Oh yeah, yeah, Thomas is this gospel we just didn't 203 00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:14.639 read enough, that's correct, yep. So Thomas wasn't there, and 204 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:18.080 so then he you know, later on it's actually like 205 00:09:18.120 --> 00:09:21.159 almost a week later where Jesus finally appears, and then 206 00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:25.919 Thomas believes right, but anyway, so we know Thomas isn't there. 207 00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:29.080 But it says the disciples were meeting behind locked doors, 208 00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:32.600 and he's referring to the eleven disciples, but apparently in 209 00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:34.919 this case it was really twelve ten disciples. He doesn't 210 00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:38.039 say all ten or all eleven, but he just says 211 00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:41.480 the disciples, right, so apparently there's ten of them, and 212 00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:45.279 assuming that everybody else was there besides Thomas, and and 213 00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:48.399 so Jesus appears, and I love how it gives the 214 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:53.519 detail that the doors were locked, which means that Jesus 215 00:09:53.559 --> 00:09:58.120 does magic power things. Jesus, you know Jesus' magic powers. 216 00:09:57.799 --> 00:09:59.960 In his resurrected body, Yes, and his resurrected body. 217 00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.000 Sure, yeah, so he appears in a locker room. 218 00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:05.639 It's not magic powers. It's miraculous. But that's okay. 219 00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:08.720 I know, I say powers tongue in chek. Yes, there 220 00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:12.519 is miraculous abilities. 221 00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:17.720 I wish the people who were only listening to this 222 00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:21.240 podcast and not watching you can see the disgust on 223 00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:24.639 Christmas face when I when I I took away my fun, 224 00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:26.480 I get all serious and I'm like all of a 225 00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:29.279 sudden I'm like throwing a wet blanket on all of 226 00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:30.120 your funny You're. 227 00:10:29.960 --> 00:10:34.600 Like, yes, his miraculous powers. Yes, yes, it was such 228 00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:39.080 a discussing. Was it not discussed disappointment? 229 00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:43.600 Like okay, yeah, you know, I say a tongue in cheek, right. 230 00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:45.679 That was great? Now, I know, And I was playing 231 00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:46.559 with you. 232 00:10:46.559 --> 00:10:48.879 You should listen, by the way, to the podcast this morning. 233 00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:49.639 Did you listen to this? 234 00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:51.600 I listened to the wh that played today. 235 00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:54.360 I actually talked about you while you were gone, and 236 00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:57.639 I actually said it said that Jesus knew their thoughts 237 00:10:57.639 --> 00:10:59.720 and responded to them. When when me Andy were talking 238 00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:03.120 about it, and I said, see in cargoes, man, he 239 00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.320 goes Jesus knew their thoughts and responded to them. He's like, 240 00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:06.919 He's like, we don't have the ability to do that. 241 00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:09.120 And I said, see, that's what I was talking about. 242 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:12.279 I said, I said, uh, I said, I said, I 243 00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:15.639 always said that Jesus had abilities that he said that 244 00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:18.039 I'm doing these things to prove I'm the Messiah. I 245 00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:20.720 said he had abilities beyond us. But Jeff's contention is 246 00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:22.320 that he was doing things for the power of the 247 00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:24.120 Holy Spirit, which is true. But it was the same 248 00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:26.039 things that we can do. I said, but as far 249 00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:28.720 as I know, I can't read somebody's thoughts and respond 250 00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:32.279 to them. And then I did a one eighty on 251 00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:34.000 the air in your favor. 252 00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:39.559 Oh, spiritual gifts of knowledge of knowledge discernment said. 253 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:42.559 I said, good for you, yep, And I said, I 254 00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:43.639 have a convert yeah. 255 00:11:43.799 --> 00:11:44.720 I said, well, I'm. 256 00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:47.279 Not sure about that, but but I did. I did, 257 00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:50.240 uh come back around and I said, okay, I can 258 00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:53.720 see it on that part that point right, because I said, 259 00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:56.440 Jeff would be sitting here and he would say, here's 260 00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:57.919 here's the way. I said, I go, I go, I'm 261 00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:00.720 gonna put myself in jeff shoes and he's probably gonna say, yeah, Chris, 262 00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:05.039 they call that discernment. And I said, and I go, okay, 263 00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:07.039 I said, all right, I'll concede. I'll concede, and then 264 00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:07.559 we moved on. 265 00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:08.039 Yeah. 266 00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:10.440 So it would be a it would be a split 267 00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:14.519 between the two spiritual gifts of knowledge. God can give 268 00:12:14.519 --> 00:12:17.480 you supernatural knowledge and which seems to be that he 269 00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:21.200 knew what they were thinking, or discernment knowing what somebody's thinking. 270 00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:25.840 Gifts that would lend lend themselves to. 271 00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:27.320 That, but I did one idea on that point. 272 00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:29.919 Yeah, that's awesome, dude. I'm so proud of you. Thank 273 00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:31.320 you have never been. 274 00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:33.360 Proud of thank You's appreciate that. 275 00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:35.919 So anyways, you were saying, here's Jesus doing this really 276 00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:37.759 incredible moment when he walks through the door. 277 00:12:38.039 --> 00:12:41.279 Yeah so so he so he miraculously appears, And I 278 00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:45.799 love that because it gives us the insight thousands of 279 00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:48.679 years later that even even appearing in the room as 280 00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:51.639 a miracle. Yeah right, So it wasn't just him walking 281 00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:54.960 or knocking, it's him demonstrating I'm the resurrected Christ. 282 00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:55.399 Yeah. 283 00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:58.639 So, so I believe in the in the the physical 284 00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:02.399 resurrection of Jesus, the bodily resurrection of Jesus. This wasn't 285 00:13:02.440 --> 00:13:05.679 just a spiritual resurrection, right. But and one of the 286 00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:07.519 reason why we say that is he ate food with 287 00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:11.320 the disciples, That's right, right, He cooked breakfast even after 288 00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:14.559 this for the d after this. So this is a 289 00:13:14.559 --> 00:13:18.879 bodily resurrection. But this is also a resurrected Lord in 290 00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:23.639 this moment, and so he was not simply bound by 291 00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:26.759 all of these things, but rather he was still choosing 292 00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:28.840 to live in the body and so to walk through 293 00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:31.159 a door or whatever. This just and this would probably 294 00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:33.279 be the version of Angelic at this point. 295 00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:35.480 Yes, because this would be the version of Jesus that 296 00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:38.399 we're going to meet. Yes, right, So he's the Jesus 297 00:13:38.440 --> 00:13:41.679 who has a physical form of a human body. Because 298 00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:44.240 even in the Book of Revelation it says he comes 299 00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:48.360 back as a warrior right on the horse, so he 300 00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:51.240 has a physical body. It also says that he is 301 00:13:51.320 --> 00:13:53.840 sitting at the at the right hand of God the Father, 302 00:13:54.399 --> 00:13:56.519 and it also describes God the Father as spirit. 303 00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.120 Yeah, the Bible says it will be fleshing, we'll have 304 00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:01.480 bodies of flesh, and that's right, right, which is a 305 00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:04.879 different thing. But anyways, so to fit along with that 306 00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:08.039 theory that I have, I believe I believe that this 307 00:14:08.120 --> 00:14:13.240 is perfectly congruent with the idea of Jesus doing God 308 00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:18.159 things as God. Now, whereas we just needed him to 309 00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:22.639 be a man through the crucifixion and resurrection, right, and 310 00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:25.720 so that was the he had to pay the price 311 00:14:25.879 --> 00:14:27.919 as a man for us. And so I believe that 312 00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:31.039 all of that was in the power the Holy Spirit. 313 00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:33.679 Now he's operating in the power of God, is what 314 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:34.519 I think is happening there. 315 00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:35.120 It's very cool. 316 00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:35.519 Yeah. 317 00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:37.200 And then and then it says he showed them the 318 00:14:37.240 --> 00:14:41.200 wounds in his hand and the wounds in his side, 319 00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:44.240 and again that confirms the bodily resurrection, right. Yeah, so 320 00:14:44.279 --> 00:14:47.879 that's literally his actual body, the one that was pierced, 321 00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:50.720 the one that was crucified, and they were filled with joy. 322 00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:53.200 And he says peace be with you, and another version 323 00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:57.879 might say shalom, right, So shalom is the is the 324 00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:01.600 Hebrew word for peace. And what's ironic about this? And 325 00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:04.799 I don't know if Jesus meant it this way, but 326 00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:09.639 what he was really communicating is he is peace. 327 00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:10.720 Right. 328 00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:13.000 So I don't know if he meant peace be with 329 00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:16.399 you or I am peace among you, right, But both 330 00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:17.080 are true, aren't they? 331 00:15:17.200 --> 00:15:18.000 Or peace is with you? 332 00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:19.000 Peace is with you? 333 00:15:19.080 --> 00:15:19.679 Yeah, that's right. 334 00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:23.360 It could be peace is with you, but he is peace. 335 00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:27.240 And so it's the same peace by the way that 336 00:15:27.279 --> 00:15:31.320 we have available to us. And John chapter what is it, 337 00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:35.360 thirty No? Fourteen? John Chapter fourteen, verse thirty something where 338 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:37.720 he actually says my peace. I give to you my peace. 339 00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:40.399 I give like the world cannot give. 340 00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:40.919 Right. 341 00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:44.600 I do not offer peace as the world gives and 342 00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:48.399 so yeah, and so it's the same peace that surpasses understanding. 343 00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:50.559 If he's just says, it's the peace that you and 344 00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:54.960 I have as believers, and so it's offered through Jesus Christ, 345 00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:58.120 and which I just I love connecting those dots as well. 346 00:15:58.159 --> 00:16:01.639 So there's a somewhat of well, it's not a clunky 347 00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:07.279 translation in all fairness, but it's clunky wording in this 348 00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:10.759 receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive anyone's sins, they 349 00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:13.399 are forgiven. If you do not forgive them, they are 350 00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:16.519 not forgiven. And you feel like, oh, wow, Jesus just 351 00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:21.240 gave the disciples the ability to forgive sins. Well, Jesus 352 00:16:21.320 --> 00:16:23.000 is really clear. Only God forgives sins. 353 00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:24.759 Yep he said that, ye, right. 354 00:16:25.159 --> 00:16:29.279 So only God forgives sins. But when you take this 355 00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:33.279 whole inner action, peace be with you. As the Father 356 00:16:33.320 --> 00:16:36.399 has sent me, so I'm sending you so you receive 357 00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:39.320 the Holy Spirit. If you forgive anyone sins, they're forgiven. 358 00:16:39.320 --> 00:16:42.200 If you're not forgive them, you're not forgiven. This is 359 00:16:42.279 --> 00:16:46.919 really in the context of it is the Father sent 360 00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:50.320 me to bring the gospel. Now as you go bring 361 00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:52.399 the gospel, you're going to need the power of the 362 00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:55.240 Holy Spirit, the peace of God in your life, and 363 00:16:55.279 --> 00:16:58.159 then you're going to be able to confidently help people 364 00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:01.919 know that their sins are forgiven. That's kind of the 365 00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:05.680 connotation there, right. So the translation is a touch clunky 366 00:17:05.759 --> 00:17:10.240 the wording of it, but the meaning is not that 367 00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:13.480 the disciples would forgive sins, but rather the disciples would 368 00:17:13.480 --> 00:17:15.519 have the privilege of telling new believers. 369 00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:17.599 Their sins have been forgiven. Yea, does that make sense? 370 00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:19.240 As a matter of fact, there's this really great note 371 00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:21.720 here in the Life Afication of Society Bible says Jesus 372 00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:25.480 was giving the disciples their first spirit powered and spirit 373 00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:26.319 guided mission. 374 00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:28.400 He says, peace be with you. 375 00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:33.839 I'm sending you you need the Holy Spirit. Right, That's 376 00:17:33.839 --> 00:17:38.519 what he just did. And this mission, this spirit powered 377 00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:41.039 and spirit guided mission, was to preach the good News 378 00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:44.440 so people's sins might be forgiven. The Disciples did not 379 00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:46.319 have Oh, here you go. The Disciples did not have 380 00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:48.400 the power to forgive sins. Only God can do that. 381 00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:51.039 But Jesus gave them the privilege of telling new believers 382 00:17:51.039 --> 00:17:54.359 that their sins have been forgiven because they have accepted 383 00:17:54.440 --> 00:17:57.480 jesus message. And he does the same thing in Matthew 384 00:17:57.519 --> 00:17:59.559 chapter sixteen. So I think it's this is why we 385 00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:02.599 know this is a consistent concept. All believers have the 386 00:18:02.680 --> 00:18:05.599 same privilege. We can announce forgiveness of sins with certainty 387 00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:08.720 when we ourselves have come to repentance and faith. Right, 388 00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:10.799 that's what he's doing. So he's not saying that the 389 00:18:10.839 --> 00:18:14.279 twelve Disciples or these eleven Disciples can go around forgiving sins. 390 00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:18.000 You're forgiven, and you're forgiven, and you're not forgiven. 391 00:18:17.720 --> 00:18:19.480 Right, right, that's believe. 392 00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:22.480 It's kind of how it reads in English. Yeah, that's right, 393 00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:24.200 but in the Greek, and I had a Greek professor 394 00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:26.960 say this. In the Greek, it says those words. It 395 00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:29.119 just doesn't read it that way. It doesn't feel that 396 00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:30.359 way when you read it in the Greek. 397 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:30.680 Right. 398 00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:33.119 So I'm not a Greek expert, but I remember having 399 00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:36.279 a professor say, it's really this idea that what Jesus 400 00:18:36.319 --> 00:18:40.319 is saying is on this mission, this Holy Spirit mission 401 00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:43.960
