(v.34-37) Envisioning the victorious throne of Christ. (v.38) Enjoying our restoration by our Savior and King. (v.39) Why is my strength not sufficient for judgment? Whose seat presides over judgment? Ps. 2:6 and 2 Cor. 5:10 What two things does God do with His authority? Mt. 28:18 Where is God's area of influence? Jer. 23:23-24, Rev. 4:2,9-11

Because Jesus has all authority (both church/world), we gladly worship/serve Him, and cherish His rule in all of life. Disregarding the truth: the priests/scribes asked Jesus a question without being interested in the true answer. (v.27-28) Revealing the truth: Jesus revealed that the same Source Who gave John the Baptist the authority to baptize, also gave Jesus the authority over the temple. (v.29-30) Exposing the truth: Jesus exposed the priests/scribes' inability to distinguish between authority from God vs. man. (v.31-33) In what ways do we see Christ's influence? Whose message is in God's temple? Gal. 1:11 How much authority does Jesus have? Mt. 28:18 How many people have authority from the Father? Mt. 11:25-30

Coming to the third and final chapter of this great book, Nahum, speaking for almighty God, pronounces a woe on Nineveh. This formal woe is like a charging document against the city, noting its violence, lies, and harlotry. For these crimes, judgment is coming to the city.

How is the vast superiority of Christ over Adam displayed? Romans 5:20–21 looks forward to the sermon in this week's midweek meeting.

Why is so much attention paid to the opulence of Persia in the first half of Esther chapter 1; and is there any message in that section for us today. You will be riveted on the story of Ahasuerus, and even more riveted by the REST of the story.

This recording also includes the reading and conviction of God's moral law, His pardon for His people, (before sermon) and exhortation from the Lord's Table liturgy (after sermon) 1 Thes 4:4 that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, 5 not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God; 6 that no one should take advantage of and defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also forewarned you and testified. 7 For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in holiness. 8 Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given us His Holy Spirit.

The book of Esther is a penetrating look into life in a outwardly impressive empire. This book can really be a great spiritual weapon if it is rightly understood and rightly applied. This book is for such a time as this in kingdom equipping. Analysts of nearly every stripe are saying that American evangelicalism is drifting into nominalism. Probably so. Hear part of the cure. Divine beauty treatments.
