Welcome back fellow techies to our latest tutorial video. I am the technician project and today's tutorial is going to show you how to set up your screen on an Apple Mac. Now I'm using two screens here so we're going to go to our display settings which is in system preferences in your dock. If you do not have it in your dock go to the Apple symbol at the top left and click system preferences. So we're loading up system preferences here and we're going to look at our display settings. Now what we want to do is because I have two screens I want my screens to be set up in a certain way and this is our main tutorial. So when you click on display this shows all the different options you have for your main display. So this is my main display and this is my second screen as you see here. Your second screen shows up as the second pop-up window so I click gather windows here the second screen goes behind first screen. Now what we can do is we can change the resolution per screen so you can have it on you can rotate it if you want it you can change the color of it you can change the scale of it so I've got you to fit my screen I can change it again so you'll see it flashing and that's massive we don't want that so it looks tiny on my OBS. So if I change it back downscale there we go so we hit default with displays. On our second screen you can change the arrangement so this is your primary screen so if you click on your primary screen you can click on one as you can see the red box appears around the screen you're clicking on so my second screen I'm also clicking on that and it will be the same. What I've got set up here is I've got two screens so I can use them as two separate screens but you can mirror the device so whatever you're doing on the first screen will mirror the display on the second screen so basically you've got two of the same screen. It's a bit odd but it's very useful if you're doing that with a laptop you can just mirror your display straight up and I've also got show mirroring options in the menu bar when available so when I go to my menu bar down here all my menus are mirrored and all my menus at the top are mirrored on the second screen as well because I'm on find I've got find on the second screen all my tasks at the top are mirrored but my screens are not mirrored just the options are mirrored. You can move these displays around wherever you like so I can move them up which makes it a bit complicated now to find the second screen let's just go so you have to go down now I can move it to the right now this is all depending on where you put your screen to wherever you put your second screen so as I'm facing my computer my actual second screen is on my left so I move it to the left and all you do now is when you move your mouse left to right here across the screen so this is where the screens are lined up so I like to line them up right at the top to the top to top and what I do is I'll move my mouse to the left which will then go straight off your screen you can see and onto my second screen and now on my second screen I can move straight to the right and it'll bring it over so if I move this window it should disappear half and half so I've got half on one screen now and half on the other screen I can drag it completely onto my other screen drag it back on that's how you change your arrangement and your displays within your screens thanks for watching don't forget to like the video if you enjoyed it and subscribe for more and also ding dong that notification bell to get further updates thanks again goodbye


That's probably fine, yeah It's on yeah Please stay Okay, cool Yeah, I guess I have to scream Yeah, it's weird Maybe that's better Hello, so Yeah, my name is Max and I'm a software engineer at the beam project and I want to tell you about beam today and how beam realized its vision for portability and What do I mean by portability because portability can mean a lot of things? Well, first of all, you have to listen carefully to understand but hey golden But the short answer is that it enables you to run your data processing jobs on top of various Execution engines like spark or flink or samsa or Google cloud data flow and you can do that in the programming language of your choice So that sounds pretty good doesn't it so I've put this agenda together So first of all, I mean some of you might know beam I will give it like a short introduction then we will talk about you know a little bit more about portability and Then how we can actually achieve it because there are multiple ways to do that And then we let's recap and see how far we are actually with portability So what is beam so first of all beam is an open source project at the Apache software foundation So, I don't know if you know the pipe Apache software foundation, but it's like a framework for developing open source software Which they provide infrastructure and kind of a guide how to develop software in the open source and Beam is a project there and it it focuses on parallel and distributed data processing so and you typically run your beam job on like multiple machines and And you have probably lot you have mostly large data, but you can also run it on a single machine if you want and It has a really cool API which can do batch and stream processing at the same time So often like you have like a batch and stream API which are separate and you have to like part your batched up to streaming but in beam. It's all the same So and and once you've written your job you can actually run it on like multiple executions engines That's why sometimes we say it's like an Uber API because I use one API But you can execute with multiple backends or execution engine and now or you can also use your favorite programming language So a little bit more detail in this so we have I mean this is the vision of beam We have the SDKs here on the left side and so that's like Java go Python scholar and sequel and Then we have some magic happening in beam, which are the runners There's a runner for every execution back end and the runner translates the beam job in the SDK into The language of the execution engine and You can see there a bunch of them and more and more are coming and Yeah, I mean that's really nice to have that choice, right? So how does the API work like just concept wise so in beam? They're they're called There are P collections So the first of all there's the pipeline the pipeline is like the the object that holds all your job information so you create that from some options which you can pass in there and then you and create P collections P collections are created by Applying transforms to the pipeline so you do always like apply transforms It's really easy and this can be like you can do multiple transforms after each other Or you can do you can also branch like here where you create this P call to which is like, you know a branch of P call one So and then you can you can run that and that pipeline. That's pretty sweet so transforms are actually quite nice abstraction because Transforms can be either primitive or composite. What does it mean? Actually in beam. We only have a few primitive transforms We only have like Pardu group by key assigned windows and flatten so I will explain two of them in a bit So basically what that means you can define like composite transforms which use these and then These are actually the composite transforms like expanded to these primitive ones, which is really easy because we just need to I mean as a runner creator You just need to implement those for primitive transforms and we can we can do optimizations for composite transforms But it's enough to implement that primitive transform So of course because this is like a big data framework, we have to do a little word count and For those of you who don't know what count It's basically you're trying to you have a list of words like to be or not to be and you try to count how often Like a unique word distinct word appears in that list The way to do that is you to use if we are talking about beam Then use a Pardu which stands for parallel do and you would you would assign like a key value You would transform your words into a key value object with like a one which stands for number of occurrences And then you would do a group by key which basically well shuffles the data and Gives you a list of all the values for Every distinct key and then you can sum them up and you know that two is twice in this list and be also and the others just once and so Don't don't get confused now. This is this looks really ugly This is actually how you would do it in beam, but we will see we can simplify it a lot So we we have the pipeline we created we have our list of words in this case like hello Hello foster and we we have this part of this first one with the signs like the one And then we do a group by key and then we have this loop here in the second part of which sums it all up Yeah, I mean that was pretty ugly. I agree. I mean, I don't know a better way to write this Any non-comprehensible? so luckily we have composer transforms so We we can simplify this now further so instead of doing the the first part do which where where we do this Do if n function we just use a map elements function Which is slightly some more simple and we do like an integers per key Composer transforms, but which does basically it sums up the value the number of occurrences for each key and We can simplify this even further by By just using this count per element to impose a transform. So that looks pretty simple, right? So there are a lot of these Transforms in beam and if you read the documentation you can you can write really readable code even in Java because that is that is the Java API and We have of course fortunately also a Python API which which looks so much nicer So here this would be the same initial example. We just use lumber functions to that do that work count and Also in Python we have of course these composite transforms So this is maybe slightly simpler where we have the combined per key function and we pass some Sum is an argument This is just like a very Quick look into the beam API. I thought it would be useful. There's lots of more Composer transforms you can create your own. We have lots of IO. We have windowing event time watermark site inputs. I mean state and timers, which is it doesn't make sense to you at the moment Maybe if you haven't tried it, but it's really useful concept once you Learn more about beam and your pipeline gets more complicated So what does portability mean now? I mean I showed you Java. I showed you Python Where does I mean it's I mean that should already be working, right? so Let's see first. What is I mean what are the two different kinds of portability in the beam context? So you have the engine portability, which is like the ability to run it on Different execution engines and we have the language portability, which is like using different SDKs for composing the pipeline and If we look back at the vision, which I showed you at the beginning. This is really I mean how it should work, right and In terms of engine portability it is actually true like we are in the Java API We we just you know these options would we pass to the pipeline we just set runner flink runner and Then we do run and it really runs on flink. That's pretty amazing. So we have that part covered already Now what about language portability? Why would we use other languages? Well, it's kind of I mean clear I guess syntax expression of Communities is a big point because there are a lot of people simply don't like Java for various reasons Which I can understand. I mean I'll really like Java, but it's okay but we also have a lot of Libraries which is like an important factor like tensorflow are really like huge libraries, which are simply not available in Java So that's a good reason to use Python So I was actually lying a bit to you this whole This whole portability language-wise doesn't really or didn't really work So it used to be the case that we just I mean basically only we're supporting Java and Scala in in the open source world and we had like When you use like the Google Cloud you could run Python, which is like Not so cool, right? I mean It kind of breaks the promise So what we what we need is and what we worked on in the past like almost two years is To build a language portability framework into beam and its runners so that we actually Can do the full realize the full vision So How do we achieve how do we achieve it? if we look at sort of the Very abstract translation process of a pipeline it used to be like this where we had Java and then a bunch of runners and They all executed in Java so they need to implement their own translation way But once they translated it was fine now that we have language portability. It seems like a Well, maybe not very good idea, but It's certainly possible to just you know, let every SDK figure out a way to translate To every execution engine then the execution engine has like various their own various ways of supporting that language but this that this seems like a terrible idea very complicated and Replicating a lot of work. So what what we did is we introduced the the runner API which takes the pipeline from the SDK and Sort of transforms it into a language agnostic format That's called the runner API. So it's it's based on protobuf. I mean doesn't really matter It's just like a format that is consistent across languages so And then what we also needed is during execution We have like these language dependent parts like when the execution engines all most of them are actually all of them are written Java so when you have Python you need to figure out a way to Send data to to that Python process and Existate and on all that and this is called the fun API Fn API. Yeah, and that way we pretty much only have these two extra layers and Just have to make sure the runners are compatible with that and then we're good to go So let me simplify this a lot. So we have the The old way was like we have the SDK and the runner and we have for example Execution engine like flink with a bunch of tasks and the all these were in Java. So and that worked pretty well The new way is a bit different. So In the new way, we have the SDK here which Uses the runner API to produce this universal pipeline format and then we actually have the job API which is a way to Send this pipeline to the job server and the job server is really a beam concept now It used to be that every runner had, you know, every execution and had its own way of submitting applications And but we wanted to you know, really Get everything portable. So we created the job server and in the job server the runner translates this runner API pipeline and then It executes it on the engine of your choice but of course we have these like Python blobs or go blobs in between which we don't really understand and whenever we have that we we we have a special Well task called executable stage Which is the fancy name for we don't know what to do with this So we have to send it to an external Process which is called the SDK harness and that harness exists for every language like for Java Python and go so Whenever So whenever we I mean so we put the we create the harness when we start the job with the Python code for instance and then whenever we receive data in that Task we send that to the external process the external process does its processing and sends that back, you know it's very simplified and There's there's some challenges to that because There is not a great cost But there's some costs when you send data to an external process right because you need to Serialize that data and deserialize it again. So we built in some optimization called fusion which tries to combine as many of these Python stages for instance into One SDK harness so we Don't do any like the duplicate serialization work How does the SDK harness work? so First of all the SDK harness needs to be bootstrapped somehow, right? So what we typically do is we use Docker So we have an environment which contains all the dependencies like my tensorflow or my numpy and And just use this Docker image directly. We can specify that in the options That's a really easy way of deploying because you you have an image registry and you just download that image automatically and start it but some people don't want to use Docker because for various reasons and so you can also start like a process-based execution, but then you have to make sure you set up the environment Thank you the environment like manually and it's also possible to run this embedded in case you're you are using Java and So There's I mean there's a lot of happening with love communication between like the back end and the SDK harness like obviously we need to Control like we have like control plane a data plane. We have a way to access date and Report progress and also logging. I mean everything is locked So you could know actually was what is happening inside external process because otherwise debugging it would be would be really hard so What is now missing is and kind of a problem? It is not only. I mean a runner is is Like a SDK is only complete if you can read and write data, right? Because it's not really worth anything if we can support all the primitive transforms. We also have to be able to Actually have that Connectors which we have in Java in in any SDK available and you can see there a lot of them available Now it would be kind of a lot of work to replicate them and the language support For example, when you want to create a Kafka connector in Python the language support is not so good in Java It's really good. So ideally we would we would just use the Java connector in Python and Not you recreate it in in Python and Turns out we can actually do that and that's a pretty amazing solution We can simply use that process which I've described to run cross language pipelines So how does it work? Theoretically, I mean we're finalizing like the specification at the moment But it's sort of like this. So you have a Python job and I mean probably it's not gonna be named IO expansion But it's kind of like it like a dummy object where you specify your IO like Kafka IO or maybe the full Java name I mean it though it will be made a bit simpler and use pass some configuration and then of course, I mean Python doesn't understand this but When we do the translation to the runner API, we actually have like an expansion service a Java expansion service running if we want to in the case of Java and we so we take that stop this placeholder and Expand it into like like a native Java Kafka transform so and then When then we do the rest of the translation and doing when the job runs We actually have now two different kind of SDK harness running. So we have a Java one for our Kafka source and then we have maybe some Python data processing afterwards where we do some map and count and we of course also have the native Trans like native flink or whatever you're using Execution engine transform like a group by key which which just doesn't need an SDK harness or anything Because it's supported by the execution engine Yeah, so This is sort of how portability works. There are a lot of details, of course, but it's a 20 minutes talk So how how far are we? So we have the engine portability Mm-hmm, and we have the language portability Almost I would say I mean for developers you can try it out yourself. I have a link for you in the end You can try it out. It works. We just have to make it a bit better You know, there are some some like we have to tune a bit of performance Although we have estimated five to ten percent only overhead in most cases and then cross language pipeline support needs a bit more and Specification but that's gonna happen in the next weeks There's also this fancy thing called splitable do a fan, which you can read up, but that's not so important There's a compact compatibility matrix which tracks like the the the status for portability of all runners There's a link here and sling actually is like the best runner I would say because it supports most features at the moment. The others are gonna catch up and That brings me to the end of my talk Please check out the portability Website or just go to the normal beam website if you want to learn more about beam We have mailing lists and an awesome select channel, which is where there are a lot of help for people Yeah, and that's it Thank you Compiled to what sorry Common bite code Yeah, so the question is why not use something like a patchy tinker Tinker pop which uses like an intermediate common intermediate format between the Languages and then or which is like bite code which can then be executed There are a lot of other Frameworks with do that for example flink has a Python API which uses Jaisen Which is sort of like the same idea you can generate bite code from Python We want to be able to support all kinds of libraries like Times of flow which is like a native C library and that you can only achieve if you run like a C Python interpreter and not like some custom version of Python which only supports a subset of Python That's the reason I have and so yeah, I repeat the question. So how is the debugging experience like in these? Python libraries when when you run into an error in Python like how fast do you see it and when you execute on a on a Essentially Java runtime It's actually pretty good and it's been part of the design So when when in Python you see an exception it will be like forwarded directly to To the to the op like Java operator and it will catch an error there And so and use you due to the logging and stuff like that You actually see immediately what and the errors also send back So you see the error message immediately there and your pipeline will fail because if the runner receives a failure It should fail Yeah, good question. I'm not working on the Yeah, so the Python 3 is it supported or not it is supported But it is like 99% done. So it is there. You can use it. There are test cases and everything it's just not, you know officially been released because I'm not working on the Python site myself. So I expected to be done actually in the 211 release, which is the next beam release should be out next month. Yeah


Mapping in QGIS, Joining Data Sets. Let's join the data we have in a CSV table to the spatial data within our feature class. Open both tables and set them side by side to determine a common field. In this case, column 0 and the Census Forward Sortation Area Unique Identifier contains the same values and are of the same data type. To join the data sets, select Processing from the top menu, select Toolbox, and search for Join in the search bar. Double-click the Join Attributes by Field Value tool. Under Input Layer, select the spatial layer by using the drop-down arrow. Under Table Field, ensure the correct field is selected. If not, use the drop-down arrow to select from the fields in the layer. In this case, the Census Forward Sortation Area identifier. Under Input Layer 2, input the table. Under Table Field 2, select the corresponding field. In this case, column 0. Keep the join type as take attributes of the first matching feature only, 1 to 1. You have the option to create a temporary scratch layer by not saving the file. If you change your mind later on, you can do so by selecting the temporary scratch layer icon. To save the output immediately, select the Browse icon next to Join Layer and save it to your desired location. Select Run and Close. You now have your join data sets.

Levinson We'll hear from the Great Gilder Slave in just a moment But if tomorrow's wash day and you homemakers are bound to be hurried getting lunch Let me give you a tip serve the folks macaroni and cheese Do you say you haven't time to bake macaroni and cheese on wash day? Well, of course you don't but haven't you heard of craft dinner with craft dinner You can make grand macaroni and cheese in just seven minutes cooking time. You see you don't bake craft dinner macaroni You don't fuss with grating cheese because each package of craft dinner contains an envelope of craft grated all ready to sprinkle in With craft dinner you get fluffy tender macaroni drenched in cheese goodness and you cook it in seven minutes fly See for yourself tomorrow. Ask your food dealer for craft dinner And now let's visit our friend the Great Gilder Slave who's been long noted for his easygoing disposition In fact, his disposition was so easygoing and finally went Uncle Mort's face has been getting longer in his temper shorter And he's starting to throw his weight around with unpleasant results everywhere. It's landed. Oh My goodness Marjorie. I'm late to the office again. Good morning. Good morning. All right I'm am I supposed to starve around here? Where's breakfast birdie breakfast? What you start off with great food cantaloupe strawberries orange juice. What's the trouble? Don't the store still sell prunes? Oh, I thought you're sick and tired of prunes.  Oh Excuse me folks, I gotta hurry to school. Yeah, come back here young man School doesn't begin again. We'll make September just my luck. Oh What am I saying? Now I'll go.  That's what I'm trying to do What is this a fried egg or the stopper out of the kitchen sink? It's an egg. Mr. Gills leaving it was cooked. It wasn't cooked birdie. It was vulcanized. I Give up just wrap it up and on my way downtown. I'll drop it on a scrap rubber pile By George, I'd like to slap a jab in the map with this scrap And there's gonna be a war in this house unless I start getting fed properly around here Man man, he's worse today than he was yesterday when he poured the coffee in his lap and then spilled the cream on his vest Thus dissolved the sugar in his pocket Yeah, I wonder what's wrong with uncle lately. He's been as jumpy as a kangaroo on a pogo stick Yes poor uncle mort. You mean poor us. We're the one. He's doing his jumping on you know I think I have an idea what's troubling him. Gee. What is it sis uncle mort hasn't any Love life offer corn sake be serious. Can't you large? But I am serious He could only get excited about some woman it might calm him down Oh, you mean he ought to get on himself away. What does he want a wife for? He's got Marge to so on his buttons and you to cook for him and judge hooker to fight with what more could a guy I Don't necessarily mean a wife Lee Roy, but some attractive woman He could get interested in and he wouldn't have time to be irrefutable or critical at least we could experiment Okay, but who we get to turn on the glamour. Well, how about Mrs. Salisbury tWitchell? Nope. Her face has had too many retreads Well, what do you say to miss Rosita Callaghan? Oh, she's got a pen like a rabbit Now wait a minute brother, who's going to fall in love with this girl you're uncle more Well, Geo is just giving young man's new point Well, who would you pick up? What about Amelia hooker judge hooker sister? Sure She's awfully nice and jolly, and she makes the swellest cakes and candy teacher. That's all. What does she do? Oh, she teaches girls domestic silence and I don't know about that.  Yeah, and it'll probably bring all the ants too No, my tree. This is Sunday the day I rest my feet.  Well, you've heard about nature lovers, haven't you? Of course. Well, I'm a nature hater Rocks, conks, snakes, bees, swamps, mosquitoes You can take all of them and give them back to the Boy Scouts and tell them to give them back to the Indians Think of all the fun. We'll have it underwood fall. What fun grinding the rubber off our tires No, we're saving rubber. We're taking the excursion train. We if who all's going on this pickle and potato salad promenade Well as Lee Roy me and judge hooker and his judge hooker. Yeah, is Amelia hooker going to She's baked the most delicious devil food cake for you incidentally for me, but why devil's food?  Yeah, come on along. You'll have fun my tree I told you how I feel about picnics Strange I mean you thought you were an outdoor man.  Well, I don't know. Oh, why don't you join us uncle? We're leaving on the 10 o'clock Gary Cooper, huh? He excused me partner. Would you mind stepping away from that there mirror? Thanks. Yeah, I see what she means by Gary Cooper. Amelia was talking about the wide open spaces Isn't this beautiful mighty pretty country here Bob's man the air is so fine and clear Yes, you just say the word Miss Amelia and I'll climb that var tree and bring you down some eagle eggs Oh, no, thank you. Mr. Gilda's leave. Well, then can I fetch you some more tater salad? No, not another thing. Mr. Gilda's leave now, Miss Amelia. No need to be formal. Just call me Throckmorton Sounds mighty like music here and you say it ma'am Mind if I sit alongside you here? No, no, that's all right. Don't move Excuse me miss Amelia, but where boss is you put that devil's food cake Never mind Yeah Why can't you be more careful where you put your circumference you Big putty punch now Horace hooker stopping solving thought more. Oh, I don't mind come is a media Let's wander down to the pond and look at the water lilies Why that little Joker oh Look, I think pretty would you like some I'll wait out and get them for you. Oh, no, Throckmorton You'll get your shoes way. Oh, no, I won't I'll just take them off And my socks and roll up my trousers No Daniel Boone, it's just your feet that are cold I'll show you hooker. It's just a second to media. I'll have your bouquet and just Who put that hole there? Oh My goodness, I've ruined all my cigars Here take my man. Yeah, thanks. Is it very wet in there one for one day. Come on We're one thing good. What's the cake icing off the trousers? Yeah, there must be an easier way of doing it than that Here Leroy, please dry off my wife. Okay, I'll bring it out.  I'm a mess. Yeah, you haven't changed a bit Oh, it's almost time for our train and the station's a mile away Where's your coat? I hung it on a limb of a tree while we were playing baseball. Oh, yes, there it is. I'll I'll get it for you Then we must hurry up. Oh What's the matter media look a bird it's building a nest in your coat pocket. What's that? Let me see Look everybody a bird's building its nest in my coat pocket. Oh, how sweet. Well, what a pity We have to dispossess her after all her work. Well, what are we supposed to be the FHA? Sure way and let's get going. Oh, Horace. You're too cruel. I am not well What are you going to do leave your coat here? Yes by George. That's exactly what I'm going to do No, I won't my dear the memory of that little mother bird's gratitude will keep me warm That's the only burden the country with a double breasted bungalow Yes, yes coming Horace That was a very sweet gesture Scott Morton. I like that very much. No, no media. It's nothing that Gary Cooper wouldn't have done Yeah, sure You're leaving your coat here. Well, my boy in the first place has made a wonderful impression on Amelia in the second place The rest of the suit was ruined anyway And in the third place that bird that was building the nest was a woodpecker and I never argue with woodpeckers in the first place Meanwhile a suggestion about getting your food budget to balance you're on the lookout for economical main dishes I know well, let me point out the thrifty product called craft dinner for craft dinner not only gives you grand macaroni and cheese and a jiffy It's very economical to to make this delicious craft dinner macaroni and cheese You simply cook the special craft dinner macaroni and boiling water You cook it not more than seven minutes and drain off the water add a little butter and milk Then with the craft grated that comes in every package You sprinkle the cheese flavor through and through the fluffy macaroni in as little time as it takes the coffee to perk You have a grand money-saving main dish ready macaroni and cheese that the whole family will love Many smart homemakers are never without craft dinner on the pantry shelf So tomorrow why don't you get your pantry set for delicious macaroni and cheese that you make in seven minutes Get several packages of craft dinner Love like mumps and measles hits awfully hard when it hits late in life and trock Morton P. Gildersleeve has it bad For the past week uncle mort has been wooing and wowing Amelia Hooker It's reached the stage where he's writing poetry now We find the summer field Shelly reciting a son of Britain especially for the fair Amelia If this were in the days of old and I and I so brave and bold I'd storm your castle Miss Amelia and on my charger I would steal you You like that one. Oh, I'm duper to play mr. Gilson. Yeah, thanks, buddy. How do you think she'd like this one better? It two eyes are blue cheeks soft as silk a skin as white as great a milk And neck is graceful as a swan a step as dainty as a fawn The girl I mean is quite a looker.  Oh, I suppose I could but I don't want to lose my immature standing Incidentally Bernie don't mention a word about this to anybody. Will you please? Oh, no, sir I wanted to get your reaction because I'm gonna take Miss Amelia for a stroll through the park tonight and read her 15 or 20 of the poems I've written.  What are you referring to Dottie? Oh, I heard all about your big moment It's all over time like a newspaper and I win. Where did you hear this rumor? Well, the operator at the beauty par told me and she had it from one of her customers Your sister-in-law hasn't made the work next door to the judge's locker And she got a straight out of Erskine Stars column in the afternoon paper. It's what? It said what big business man size 48 Is that way about the charming sister-in-law promise? What are you thinking about Drockmorton? Those crickets immediate listen to them It's hard to believe that they can do that just by rubbing their hind legs together No immediate I was thinking of your lips like twin petals of a dewey rose they Amelia there's something I must ask you yes, it would you give me a yes Would you if you got a match my cigar's gone? You shouldn't smoke so much.  Would you like to hear? Oh, yes? I'd be glad to all right It goes something like this if this were in the days of old and I innate nights so brave and bold Yeah, well, what do you want excuse me buddy, but if you're gonna die it no Peter can't you see I'm busy Oh, excuse me. I didn't know you're engaged. We're not engaged. We're just good friends. Go on scram But all I asked for was a dime Amelia. Do you happen to have changed for a quarter? Dr. Morton think the gentleman has a cold and is asking for the time. Yeah, that's it. Oh, excuse me. Let's see It's in 942. Oh, thank you truck boys died for it too.

Again, the title of our sermon this morning is Forever His Forever His and we're in part four From John 17 verses 20 through 26 this paragraph and as we've been working through this paragraph We've seen many ways in which through the words of the Lord Jesus Christ here that we are forever his saved or Elect according to the foreknowledge of God and eternity past Saved drawn to God born again in time a drawn to himself Sanctified and eventually will be glorified in him We are forever his as we come to verses 25 and 26 now to close out this paragraph We could say this morning that we are forever his in love forever his in love That's communicated to us through these verses. He says in verse 25. Oh Righteous father the world has not known you but I have known you and these have known that you sent me I have declared to them your name and will declare it that the love with which you loved me May be in them and I in them. We are forever his in love You know the truth of God the truth of God accords with love God Isn't love in terms of the world's Conceptions of love his love accords with his nature accords with his attributes accords with his his character And so when you think about the love of God you think about a love that is holy Think about a love that is righteous You think about a love that is true that is steadfast that is faithful that is unwavering a love that is immutable a love that is infinite Not like the love that the world conceives of or that we see in the world in fact the truth of God the truth of God is often seen in the world today as Unloving If you stand for the truth of God you are labeled as Unloving you take a stand for the truth of God. You're intolerant, right? In fact the cardinal sin of the world is to be intolerant or to be unloving or to be exclusive In the way that the Bible describes being loving and exclusive in Christ Acceptance is loving Only as long as it is acceptance no matter what right No concern for the love of God here. No concern for the love of his truth No concern for the character of God the holiness of God right no concern for his Righteousness most people would consider the practice of church discipline to be Exorbitantly unloving But God is true and every man a liar God is true and God knows what love is We're gonna see in this text today John chapter 17 the Lord's love for us We're gonna see our love for the Lord right three points on your notes We're gonna see the love of the father for the son has expressed in verse 25 the love of the father for the son We're gonna see the love of the son for the father We'll see that in verse 25 some in verse 26 and then we'll see the love of the father for his own Manifest to them in Christ now remember that as we close this prayer The Lord is walking with his disciples 11 men Judas is off on his satanically Charged errand to betray him and we're coming to the end of their walk in verse 18 our chapter 18 verse 1 Jesus when he had spoken these words he went out with his disciples over the Brook Kidron Where there was a garden which he and his disciples entered the Garden of Gethsemane So we're coming up on the final chapter so to speak in the Lord's earthly ministry Before he will depart by means of the cross and he is now in John chapter 17 these last few verses here Closing his prayer to the father for them and again. He prays in their hearing right he he draws them into the prayer The purpose for doing that is so they'd be encouraged by this All right, even in his prayer to God the father He's instructing them by his prayer right and they're learning from his prayer And I tell you what from verses 20 to 26 really from verse 1 to verse 26 there This is chock full of reasons to be Substantially significantly overwhelmingly encouraged by what the Lord is praying here If you're a believer that I encourage you to meditate on these things and let them fill Your heart let them enlarge your heart for the Lord It's often isn't it that as believers sometimes we can we can read passages of scripture like this and if we're not if we're not careful if we're not thoughtful if we're not Seeking Christ or seeking the Lord in his word then we can Pass through a chapter like this and it's sort of in one ear out the other right my the only one that is guilty of that at times So that happens We especially a chapter like this read this Thoughtfully meditate on the goodness on the glory of God the love of God for his own This is a glorious text. There's much here to encourage The saint so let's dig in right as the Lord in verses 20 through 26 is drawing this glorious prayer to a close His disciples are listening in as he prays now although He is praying to God the Father he encouraging encourages them With a stunning purpose of his work It's a blessed ending to this prayer and a blessed Aim or purpose if you will of the work that he is doing and will do on their behalf He prays in verse 26. I've declared to them your name and I will declare it So that for the purpose that the love with which you loved me may be in them and I in them In other words, the Lord is praying right may the love you have for me be in them It's an amazing statement. We want to unpack this statement from our text. All right now We want to do that first by looking at point one The love of the father for the son the love of the father for the son Now remember as we get into our text here. The Lord is not praying for the world if you look at verse 9 He does not pray for the world He's praying for those that the father has given to him out of the world You look at verse 6. He's praying for his disciples And in verse 20, he's praying for all those who had come to believe in him through their word In other words, he's praying for those who he's chosen those who he's chosen in Christ from before the worlds began from before time began from eternity past. That's Ephesians chapter 1 he's speaking here specifically of that special and distinguishing love that God the father has toward us those who believe and that love rooted and Grounded in his own love for God the son Lord praise in verse 24 father I Desire that they also whom you gave me may be with me where I am that they may be hold my glory Which you have given me for or because You loved me before the foundation of the world in other words Bring about the consummated end of all your redemptive purposes toward them Bring them to heaven to behold my glory Because verse 24 you loved me right because the father loves the son the son Praise for this in verse 24 in other words think of it this way we talked about this a little bit last week the glory of Christ Fills heaven The glory of Christ fills heaven the heavenly city doesn't need the Sun doesn't need the moon to shine in it why Because the glory of the lamb Illuminates it right the glory of Christ fills heaven the glory of Jesus Christ fills and lights up heaven and that glory that fills heaven is an Eternal expression of God the father's love for God the son All of heaven will be an expression of God the father's love for God the son all Glory all honor all praise all worship of God the son is An eternal testimony of the father's love for the son now in verse 24 We're gonna behold that glory in heaven forever. So as much as that is Testimony of God the father's love for God the son It's also a testimony of God the father's love for us in that we get to see and behold him in glory and verse 26 Here's the amazing end to our prayer here We won't just see that glorious love Jesus prays here that we would experience it ourselves that we experience it ourselves The love of God toward us Love of God toward us seen in all the blessings that come to us by grace Comes as we've talked about by virtue of our union with Christ all Of the blessings of redemption applied All of the blessings all of those graces in God in Christ come to us by virtue of our union With him Ephesians chapter 1 verse 3 He has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ So God the father loves us and he loves us in Christ We are Ephesians 1 6 accepted in the beloved Again this love the love of God the father for his own is not referring to a General love of God toward all people. It's not what he's talking about here This is referring to the love that God has for those whom he has chosen in Christ Those whom he has predestined to adoption as sons by Christ Jesus to himself That's Ephesians chapter 1 verse 5, right? So this is referring to his electing love his saving love redeeming love a love that he has only in Christ for his own And notice also in verse 24 this love began All of this began as an expression of love from God the father to God the son at the end of verse 24 before the foundation of the world That love of the father for the son as well as the the perfect expressions of love within the Trinity that love is Eternal it's timeless. It's timeless The love with which he loves the son is obviously eternal. It's obviously infinite immutable It's based upon the character of God himself and God the son is infinitely lovable, right? infinitely all together lovely Now what does this all mean this? Inter-Trinitarian love the love that God the father has for God the son and the character and the nature of that love What does all this mean with respect to the love that God the father has for his own? The love that God has for you and I if you're in Christ if you turn from your sin And you put your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ alone to save you then this is the love that God the father has for you God the father God the son are perfectly unified in their saving purposes Right in their purposes in their plan their purpose to save us in him God the father has loved us in Christ Jesus his son and he has given us to the son before the foundation of the world before time began Because God the father's love for God the son is infinite because his love for the son is Unchanging his love to us who are in Christ is also Infinite and unchanging do you see all based upon the character nature of God? because God the father's love for God the son is steadfast Unfailing unflinching unswerving Then God the father's love for those in Christ is Unfailing steadfast faithful unswerving all those the father has given in love to the son cannot and Will not ever Be taken from him and that's based again. It's based in the character of God The nature of God it's based in the character in nature of his love for God the son and In that Trinitarian love it's the we'll get there in verse 26 the same love with which he loves the son that means that no one and Nothing will ever diminish the love that the father has for the son will never ever Diminish the love that the father has for his own Paul says it this way in Romans chapter 8 beginning in verse 38 Paul says I am persuaded that neither death nor life Nor angels nor principalities nor powers nor things present nor things to come nor height nor depth Nor any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord If you are truly in him the nothing will ever Snatch you from his hand a Blessed reason isn't it to pursue assurance of your salvation in Christ? Right to trust him to entrust yourself to him Fling yourself to the cross clean to Christ Nothing will ever take you from him. We are forever his In a redeemed humanity the direct recipients of God's unmerited favor That redeemed humanity will worship the Son as an eternal Testament to the infinite greatness of God's mercy grace and love in Jesus Christ our Lord So let me ask you this morning and thinking about these things. Are you in him? Are you in him? Have you turned from your sin? Are you trusting in Christ alone? Are you clinging to him by faith in the Son of God who loved you and gave himself for you? Are you clinging to him for the hope of heaven? Are you clinging to him that when you stand before God in judgment you will be declared in him to be innocent? Clothed in his righteousness Are you in him? Listen if you're not if you've never turned from your sin if you're still living for yourself If you're still living in your sin acknowledge your wickedness acknowledge your rebellion acknowledge your sinfulness Confess your sin to him come to him and be saved Turn to him this morning and be saved give your life to Christ and trust all that you are to all that he is And let him shed abroad in your heart the love of God in Christ Seek the Lord while it may be found call upon him while he is near To the glory of God right to the glory of his son To your everlasting joy Those who reject the love of God in Christ will forever glorify him in their torment That's the way this works. All right. This is the way this is If you reject the love of God in Christ, listen, there is no indifference here. There's no neutral ground, right? You love Christ Or if you reject his grace if you reject his mercy you reject that free offer of his love by your rejection You show hatred for him. You show contempt for him. There is no middle ground You're either in Christ.  Turn from your sin turn from your rebellion turn to your only hope and be saved If you're not in him Then you will glorify God as an object of his wrath for all eternity Right, we're going to get there in this text, but God will administer his justice And in administering his justice he will do so on those objects of wrath that are eternal testaments Of his justice by there or through their judgment their torment their punishment so The love of God the love that God has for us Is rooted and grounded point one in the love of the father for the son Now we also see characteristics of this love point two in the love of the son For the father the love of the son for the father He begins in verse 25. He prays Oh righteous father The world has not known you but i have known you and these have known that you sent me The love of god the son For god the father is expressed in verse 25 By this statement I have known you Right, he says of the father.  I can say that I know about the president, but I cannot say that I know the president right It's a different there's a distinction in the words here and everyone understands that right the clear reading of the text Would make that clear God the son knows God the father Intimately john chapter 10 verse 30. Jesus says I and my father are one Colossians chapter 2 verse 9 for in him in christ Dwells all the fullness of the godhead bodily in other words. Jesus christ is Possessing the fullness of the divine nature in himself. So he knows god the father intimately knows him fully So the lord knows the character of god. He knows the nature of god He knows the the wisdom of god the mind of god the grace of god the mercy of god the holiness of god He knows the justice of god christ knows the father And therefore he addresses him in verse 25 like this Oh and listen to the word that he chooses righteous Father verse 11 he addressed him as holy father those two things closely related holiness and righteousness Here in love mind you right in love. This is the love of god the son for god the father. He addresses him Oh righteous father Entirely separate from sin Entirely separate from sin and in everything that he does Everything that he thinks everything that he says everything the purpose is in everything. He is righteous the psalmist says In psalm 145 verse 17 the lord is righteous in all his ways Gracious in all his works in other words Always good never evil Right always good never evil always true never false The love of god therefore the love of god is a righteous love The lawless the laws and commandments of god are righteous laws and commandments The judgment of god is a righteous judgment the wrath of god is a righteous wrath He is righteous in all his dealings with the wicked Now the lord jesus christ we know from scripture Delights himself in righteousness right So what does that say about his love for the father? It's a delighting love Right that god the son delights in love for god the father god the father delights in love For god the son and so the lord addresses him in this way because Righteousness Accords with love for god the father. Oh righteous father to know him then Is to delight in him To know him is to delight in his attributes to delight in his character Now you think about that for the genuine christian the genuine christian the one who truly knows him Is one who delights in him Delights in his righteousness delights in his holiness delights in all his judgments delights in all his purposes delights In his justice delights in his wrath To know him is to delight in him to delight in his character The one who knows him savingly will delight in him mathieu chapter five verse six The lord says blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they shall be filled Hosea chapter 14 verse 9 for the ways of the lord are right and the righteous walk in them This address verse 25 this address of our lord to our righteous heavenly father Is made here in the context of this wicked world And it's in the context of this wicked world and we see it in contrast With those in verse 25 that do not know him this wicked world He says in verse 25 a righteous father the world has not known you That's because This world Is wickedly and offensively unrighteous Sin depravity corruption Nowadays right calling evil good calling good evil. It's rampant in our culture. It's Seemingly out of control seemingly out of control Like isiah as the lord prays this As we sit here today. We are a people of unclean lips and we dwell amongst the people of unclean lips Incidentally here. This is the world that he doesn't pray for That in verse 9 he refuses to pray for because they are unrighteous Right look look back at john 15 just one page to left john 15 and Drop down to verse 18 He's not praying for the world Listen verse 18 the lord says if the world hates you You know that it hated me before it hated you If you were of the world the world would love its own Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world therefore the world hates you Remember the word that I said to you a servant.  They hated me without a cause Is it that the world didn't know about him? Is that what the lord is referring to here and back in john chapter 17 Is it because the world didn't know about him? No, the world knew about him, right? Many today know about him Many today know about him There's a distinction in the use of that word. These are those in the world who are Unregenerate they're not born again. They have not the spirit of god. They are none of his This is the unsaved masses. They have a nature That is enslaved To sin john chapter one verse 10 describes that christ was in the world And the world was made through him and the world did not know him didn't know him Certainly the most evident demonstration of that lack of knowing god Their utter ignorance of god was the murder of his own son Which is fast approaching in our walk through john The world does not know god's wisdom And it doesn't know god through their wisdom paul said in first christians chapter two verse eight None of the rulers of this age knew For had they known they would not have crucified the lord of glory They're blind in their ignorance Deaf in their ignorance dead in trespasses and sins They don't know him. They don't know him Listen to this the psalmist psalm two Describes the nations as raging against him and the people of the world as plotting vain things He says this in psalm two The kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers take counsel together against the lord and against his anointed saying Let us break their bonds and pieces and cast away their cords from us If you are here this morning, you've never given your life to christ Then your life has been a day by day hour by hour minute by minute effort to break In pieces the bond that he has over you But let me tell you this morning that is a futile and hopeless cause That bond is unbreakable. He made you he made you and wake up Listen, you're born into a covenant under him your creator Whereby in order to be justified with him you must live in perfect righteousness And you're sitting right now here sinning Breathing in his air in rebellion against him So how should the lord how should the lord who is righteous? How should he respond to such rebellion? Listen to verse four He who sits in the heavens shall laugh Now think about this with me for a moment This is frightening right. This is absolutely Terrifying our god is a consuming fire.   That's christ. I have set my king on my holy hill of Zion And I will declare the decree the lord has said to me. You are my son today I have begotten you ask of me god says and I will give you the nations for your inheritance and the ends of the earth for your possession You shall speaking of the lord jesus christ here and the lord jesus christ coming in judgment You shall break them with a rod of iron. You shall dash them to pieces like a potter's vessel Now therefore be wise. Oh kings be instructed you judges of the earth Serve the lord with fear and rejoice with trembling kiss the sun Lest he be angry and you perish in the way when his wrath is kindled But a little blessed are all those who put their trust in him the wise warning The lord in this period of time holds out the free offer of grace in the gospel Right. He holds out an offer of grace and an offer of mercy that if you'll turn from your sin and trust christ alone Then you can be saved Right, but there will come a day When as the lord says my spirit will not always strive with men When his patience when his grace and when his mercy toward you runs out And he abandons you to your sin. It's called the wrath of god's abandonment He gives you over to a debased mind to do that which you by nature want to do And then judgment comes the lord jesus christ will come back in judgment Look at romans chapter one turn over there with me romans chapter one Look at verse 18 romans chapter one verse 18 And we're speaking about god and his righteousness And the lord jesus christ his righteous love for the righteous father verse 18 Paul writes for the wrath of god the wrath of god is revealed from heaven Against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in their unrighteousness Because what may be known of god is manifest in them for god has shown it to them For since the creation of the world his invisible attributes are clearly seen Being understood by the things that are made even his eternal power and godhead so that they are without excuse Because although they knew god you see They knew about god They did not glorify him as god nor were they thankful But they became futile in their thoughts and their foolish hearts were darkened professing to be wise They became fools Because god is righteous It's in his nature to be just All right, if you think about those two things together right because god is righteous It's in his nature to be just to be just that means No offense goes unpunished right no sin goes unpunished Because god is righteous and because he is just The world will receive those who don't know god the unbelieving world You today if you're here and you don't believe you've not put your faith and trust in him The world will receive the administration of god's righteousness god will Administer his righteousness toward those Who have sinned against him? It's called his retributive or his punitive Justice and we've if you had mom or dad like i did you've experienced punitive justice before haven't you? Came at the broad end of a kuchata when you disobeyed It is by gods just penalty right And that just penalty being hell It's by that just penalty that god Vindicates or administers or exercises his righteousness on those who have sinned against him Justice then right justice demands that justice be done Justice demands that sin be judged It demands that sin be punished and that happens in one of two ways Happens in one of two ways to accord with the righteousness of god the father to accord with the righteousness of christ either one God's judgment the administration of his righteousness the Dolling out of his justice so to speak falls upon the guilty sinner In other words god's righteousness is upheld by punishing the sinner or to God's judgment falls upon a perfect and gracious substitute In falling upon a perfect substitute a perfect sacrifice god's righteousness is upheld And grace and mercy Is provided to the center in other words in his provision of a substitute righteousness and peace kiss as the psalmist says Here's where god's righteousness is revealed in the gospel look at romans 1 Back up to verse 16 Paul says in verse 16 I am not ashamed of the gospel of christ for the gospel of christ is the power of god to salvation For everyone who believes for the jew first and also for the greek For in it The righteousness of god is revealed from faith to faith as it is written the just shall live by faith martin hoy jones said it this way He said how can god be just? And justify the ungodly do you see the problem? How can god be just and yet still justify the ungodly? He says the answer is that he can Because he has punished the sins of ungodly sinners in his own son He has poured his wrath upon him He bore our Chastisement by his stripes. We are healed god has done what he said he would do He has punished sin He proclaimed this through the old testament everywhere and he has done what he said he would do He has shown that he had that he is righteous. He has made a public declaration of it He is just and can justify Because having punished another in our stead. He can then forgive us freely And he does so On calvary.  As if you've never sinned But you're seen in christ as if you've perfectly fulfilled every requirement of god's law That you obeyed everything that you fulfilled the just demands of god's law So much more than just merely asking forgiveness, right? Go to the door you're witnessing to someone witnessing to someone not long ago. I just asked for forgiveness That's all you have to do to be saved, right? Just ask for forgiveness now. It's so much more It must be and can only can be appropriated by repentant faith David brainard was staying in the home of jonathan edwards in his last days This was not long before david brainard died went to be with lord And he expressed This thought this way He said oh the glorious time is now coming That's how he referred to his death I love that right The glorious time the glorious time is approaching a glorious time coming if you're not in christ It is a terrifying time If you're in christ, it is a glorious time Brainard said the glorious time is now coming I have longed To serve god perfectly listen to his heart, right? And now god will gratify those desires He often used the epithet glorious This is edward speaking When speaking of the day of his death Brainard said near night While I attempted to walk a little my thoughts turned to thus how infinitely sweet it is To love god and be all for him Upon which it was suggested to me Little devil whispering in his ear, right? You're not an angel Not lively and active In other words, you're not fit for heaven To which my whole soul immediately replied I as sincerely desire to love and glorify god as any angel in heaven Upon which it was suggested again, but you are filthy You're not fit for heaven Hereupon instantly appeared the blessed robes of christ's righteousness Which I could not but exult and triumph in And I viewed the infinitely the infinite Excellency of god and my soul even broke with longings that god should be glorified That's the heart of a genuine believer. Amen If you're in christ, that's your desire The the transforming work And the heart of a sinful rebel by the spirit of god and med made righteous in the blood of the lamb The notice here back in john 17 That Jesus didn't say that the world isn't religious He didn't say that the world isn't religious that the world doesn't know him So john eight if you remember john eight Lord's talking to obsessively religious people and telling them that they were of their father the devil I say one God rails against israel for their Contemptible attempts at worship God saying he hates their worship of him Because of the sin in their hearts This world is idolatrous paul talks about this world seeking to establish its own Righteousness, right? The jews not submitting to the righteousness of god in christ Do you know him? Do you know him? Turn from your sin turn from your sin and trust yourself to christ Know the one who can save your soul know the anchor of your soul It's that one who is right with god who goes to heaven Psalm 15 listen lord Who may abide in your tabernacle? Who may dwell in your holy hill? here's who He who walks uprightly and works righteousness and speaks the truth in his heart All this is a fruit of the spirit's work in the life of a believer. This isn't a works righteousness All right, this is a salvation that works. This is faith working the spirit of god working in the life of a genuine believer What does that look like who may abide who may dwell in your holy hill? Verse three he who does not backbite with his tongue nor does evil to his neighbor Nor does he take up a reproach against his friend in whose eyes a vile person is despised But he honors those who fear the lord He who swears to his own hurt and does not change He who does not put out his money at usury nor does he take bribe against the innocent He who does these things shall never be moved. Look with me at first john I'm gonna stay in john's writings here first john chapter two first john chapter two For the sake of time listen quickly first john chapter two beginning in verse three Now by this we know that we know him How do we know that we know him if we keep his commandments? We don't keep his commandments in our own strength If you're serving the lord from a pure heart of clear conscience That is a work of god's spirit We know that we know him if we keep his commandments not in a legalistic heartless ritualistic way But from the heart of love for Christ to the glory of god He who says I know him and does not keep his commandments is a liar And the truth is not in him When the bible says evangelize you go evangelizing the bible says meditate on his word you meditate on his word When the bible says to love the lord your god with all your heart soul mind and strength you strive Heart soul mind and strength to do that. We're gonna obey those things perfectly. Are we gonna live sinlessly? No But it's the heart's desire and longing of every genuine christian to hunger and thirst for righteousness Verse five whoever keeps his word truly the love of god is perfected in him By this we know that we are in him. He who says he abides in him ought himself also to walk Just as he walked To know god Or rather to be known by him as paul would say Is to delight in him as the sun does to delight in his righteousness to delight in his character to delight in his laws The world does not know him Matthew 11 27 or 25 says this Jesus answered and said i thank you father lord of heaven and earth that you have hidden these things from the wise And prudent and have revealed them to babes Even so father for so it seemed good in your sight All things have been delivered to me by my father and no one knows the son Except the father Nor does anyone know the father except the son And the one to whom the son wills To reveal him So why is it that they do not know? Because it has not been revealed They and their sin reject the lord jesus christ And it is the lord jesus christ who will reveal the father to him to them So now in verse 25 back in john chapter 17 It's these that know that god the father has sent god the son verse 25 Oh righteous father the world has not known you but i have known you and these have known that you sent me The reason that we know him is because he's made himself known to us We loved him because he first loved us right And those that love him know that he has been sent by god God sent moses to deliver the people out of egypt God sent joshua to lead his people into the promised land god sent amos hosea isaiah mica jeremiah all those Prophets as covenant lawyers to turn his people from their sin He sent john the baptist preaching a baptism of repentance But none greater than the lord jesus christ his own son Last of all as the bible says he sent his son He's the prophet that moses was pointing to he fulfilled the prophecies of isaiah Joel amos john the baptist all just men none of them could take away sin Jeremiah can't deliver you out of hell So what did this world do? What have you done in your sin? Crucify the lord of glory It would it would be far better right it would be far better to be a slave in bondage in egypt Than to be a slave to your sin So we looked at the love of god the father for god the son we looked at the love of god the son for god the father And quickly point three. Let's look at the the love of the father for his own verse 26 I have declared to them your name And will declare it that the love with which you love me may be in them and i in them Love seen first His love seen first in the fact that he sent his son verse 25 Love seen secondly in the work of christ verse 26 I have declared to them your name and will declare it lord declared it in his earthly ministry preaching it to them he will declare it again in his Crucifixion in his resurrection in his ascension This is the lord's mission John chapter 1 verse 18 says no one has seen god at any time The only begotten son who is in the bosom of the father. He has declared him So this refers to the mission and work of the lord jesus christ to seek and to save that which was lost Loving his own who were in the world. He loves them to the end right That his name when he says i will declare your name refers to who god is The name refers to his essential character his essential nature Jesus christ declares god to us.  He's declaring god When the lord jesus christ Eight with tax collectors and sinners He's declaring god When he has compassion on people scattered as a sheep with no shepherd Lord jesus christ declaring the essential nature the essential character of god This revelation of jesus christ so complete so full in christ That the lord jesus christ could tell philip right if you've seen me you've seen the father Now all of this all of this comes to a staggering close And that close referring to the love that god the father has for his own jesus praise I've declared to them your name. I will declare it He will continue to declare it through the ministry of the holy spirit even now He is declaring god's name and he will declare it to his own the saint's in glory forever and ever heaven will be a glorious progressive Coming to a fuller and fuller knowledge of the glory of god in christ that same Infinite immutable steadfast faithful love with which god the father loves god the son Is the same love with which he loves those who are in christ Not as natural sons, but as adopted sons. You see the difference In he says that the love with which you love me baby in them that word in doing double duty in this case One it means in the believer the love of god shed abroad in your hearts by the spirit of god right that you Have an experience of that deep unspeakable insurpassable love of god the father for his own Shed abroad in our hearts, but also here the in means among believers And that love Experienced among believers in how we love one another in the church Ties back into that unity for which the lord prays earlier in our paragraph here That love in and among believers we are to love one another as we've been loved Now that love Being expressed here by verse 26 doesn't come In degrees to us. This is something important to think on to meditate on Because that love is in his son And his love for his son is infinite perfect Endless steadfast unwavering faithful Then that love toward us in christ is infinite Is unswerving is unfailing It doesn't come in degrees toward us to us in christ in christ He loves us as he loves his son first john chapter 4 As he is so are we in this world which is a staggering thought so That ought to strengthen you that strengthens me right emboldens me Not to give up and lay down and wallow in my sin But to keep fighting in listen when you sin Don't run for the bushes To cover yourself in your sin to hide yourself from the faith face face of god, right? Run to christ Where there's forgiveness for sin where that love is in all its fullness in him That doesn't mean that god isn't displeased with you and your sin But that's a fatherly displeasure. He loves you With the love with which he loves the son That should empower you right Strengthen you give you encouragement We have often because of our sin that love doesn't come to us in degrees, but we have Varying degrees With which we experience that love don't we when we're in sin We don't experience the fullness of that love sometimes we feel the heavy weight of god's hand is chasing hand upon us It doesn't change the essential nature of that love the essential quality or in quantity of that love But sometimes the our experience of that love changes based on our own sinfulness that is completely our own doing So when you think about the love of god in christ toward you Right we we should Think about seriously forgiving The way that god in christ has forgiven us right god in christ just He forgave us in christ Our sins have been done away with so it's how can you then Having been forgiven like that turn and for A hundred denarii debt Put your hands around the throat of your spouse Or put the your hands around the throat of your brother your sister forgive We should love one another as we have been loved in christ and all this just Strengthens me. I hope it does you too right to know that the lord jesus christ in john 17 Prayed this prayer for you prayed this prayer for me And now he ever lives in heaven making this continual intercession for us he continues to make intercession This is glorious john chapter 17 it just Gives me joy to think of our lord in heaven making intercession like this for us Before the throne of god continuously so grateful So how should we respond? How should we respond? First john chapter 3 verse 1 And there's so many texts so much that could be said about this John says behold Behold what manner of love the father has bestowed on us that we should be called children of god Therefore the world does not know us because it did not know him Beloved Now we are children of god and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be But we know that when he is revealed we shall be like him for we shall see him as he is And everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself just as he is pure We hunger we thirst for righteousness right with brainered With all our hearts we desire to be pleasing to him. Let's pray father in heaven Thank you for this text of scripture. Thank you for the lord's prayer here on our behalf and We rejoice to know that you always hear him That he has those petitions that he's asked for And that we are the beneficiaries of those if we've turned from our sin and put our faith in you Or we don't trust in our works. We don't trust in our own merits. We're not Out seeking to establish our own righteousness lord, but I pray that we're trusting in you alone Putting our faith in you and trusting ourselves to you For your righteousness That you have paid the penalty for sin and it will be clothed in your righteousness when we stand before god one day Thank you lord for that Infinite unspeakable love that you've shown us in your son And thank you lord that we will Enjoy and be satisfied and will worship and revel in that love for all eternity for your glory in jesus name We pray amen


Good day, May 40 here, listening to a podcast with Athenian Stranger, talking to Alex Gashuta. At least the 1960s. What I mean by that is media. I mean, I've been indoctrinated in less way of thinking since I was a child, just by watching. This is the credulous, just thoughtless reactionary position of so many people on the distant right that all the media just brainwashes people. If you believe in evolution, the entire basis of thought for the distant right is evolutionary and atheist. Then you'll realize we weren't born yesterday, we could not evolve to be gullible, or we wouldn't be here. So this idea that propaganda is just so effective, there's no evidence for this. Nazi propaganda, this propaganda didn't change minds, neither did this woke propaganda. In essentially American productions, I speak this way because I've watched a lot of television, this is the way people on TV speak. Yeah, you pick up some speaking mannerisms. And you get familiarity with some things that you'd rather not be familiar with, but it doesn't fundamentally change you from left to right, or right to left, or change you from religious to secular. You know, when I started watching TV, that was hugely influential on me in my teenage years. It was hugely influential on me because I wanted it to be. I wanted this exciting new world outside of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, right? TV didn't turn me from religious to secular. It took me along a road I wanted to travel. That's what's so funny about seeing these American journalists get orgasmic about what's happening in Iran, and also what's happening with that with soccer people or whatever protesting and stuff, the people protesting in China. They act as if somehow America doesn't have more propaganda than any other country in the world except maybe. The presence of propaganda isn't what makes for oppression, or doesn't destroy your capability of being human. All right? I mean, this guy is about to compare America to North Korea, which people on the distant right do all the time, and it's absolutely brain-dead. Oh, really? So, he sees the things that you don't see.  You don't think ordinary people on the right can detect left-wing propaganda? People weren't born yesterday. They're not born gullible. We did not evolve to be gullible.  People on the right can detect left-wing propaganda. You don't need a PhD in classical studies to be able to detect left-wing propaganda. So, let's go look at some ancient Aboriginal art. I mean, this is greater than what Michelangelo produced. Oh, so prior to Donald Trump, people didn't realize the news was fake. The news is what different bureaucracies report. That's what the news is, because news is a business and you can package the reports of bureaucracies, whether they're juries or Wall Street or Justice Department or the House of Representatives. Look at these amazing Aboriginal engravings. Wow, a kangaroo, a sunfish, and several smaller fishes. Just amazing Aboriginal art here.  News is a business. It hypes. Like journalists think it's okay to hype, meaning you're essentially lying about the importance of what you're reporting. So much of the reporting on Trump's ties to Russia was factually accurate, but it was hyped so that if you wanted to believe that Trump was fairly compromised by a relationship with Russia, you could believe that. But the reporting was more careful than that, it was more factual than that, but it was hyped. So as soon as I'd read these stories about Donald Trump's ties to Russia, my eyes would glaze over. I just find it so boring. It was just so inconsequential, but it was factually accurate, but completely inconsequential. So just because something dominates the news doesn't mean that it's important. There's no necessary connection between hype and importance. A lot of things that are compelling are unimportant. A lot of things that are famous or attention-grabbing dominate the mainstream media. A lot important, such as the whole Trump-Russia story. It's actually accurate, but inconsequential. You don't think the US is constantly interfering in elections overseas. There's no evidence that the Russian disinformation campaigns on Facebook and Twitter had any significance. The newsworthy Israeli significant and the significant Israeli newsworthy. And I don't think we needed Donald Trump to tell us this. We think that we have choices and stuff like that, but then we don't realize that it takes someone like Donald Trump to come along and remind him. Oh, we think we have choices, but until Donald Trump comes along, we really didn't understand that we had choices. I mean, this is such track and it's so common to use this rhetoric in the distant right. But we were just mindless automatons until Donald Trump came along and showed us the truth that we were just seeing shadows on the cave dancing on our TVs. It took Donald Trump to take us out of the cave and into the sunlight of truth. The news is a business, like other business. It's fake like the ad for the Australian army, saying, joining the Australian army, you know, gave me a whole new life, shows this beautiful woman has become a driver in the Australian army. And it's her ticket to a whole brand new life. Okay, I'm going to wager that that's pretty fake. I don't think that the Australian army had that transformative effect. I look at commercials, all right, not necessarily accurate and truthful, but filled with hype. And so that's what a lot of businesses rely on, right? They rely on hype. They rely on exaggeration. They rely on saying things that are supposedly really important. But in essence, not so important. So you can't outsource your reality to someone else, right? Why would you just automatically trust what the news or some expert or academic says? Okay, Reeve Beach, Manly. Here we go. And he says that as though it means something, right?  You give me pro-cocaine propaganda or day long, and I'm not going to go out and snuck cocaine, right? He talks as though we're just incredibly vulnerable to propaganda. He talks as though we're all just unthinking automatons until Donald Trump came along and restored our humanity. And he's a professor of the classics. Give me a break. The number of big pharma commercials that you see constantly, you know, going directly to ordinary Americans. And he's talking as though we're helpless in front of big pharma commercials. So I see a big pharma commercial with Viagra, and I can't help but go to my physician to get some, because I'm just a mindless automaton.  Hundreds of thousands of years of evolution, right?  It's so incredible that allowing free speech to pharmaceutical companies, right? You really think that people can't handle seeing some commercials for some pharmaceutical product. Even though it doesn't meet any of their needs, they're just going to feel like they've been turned into zombies, right? They've been bitten by a zombie from the commercial, right? This is the zombie bite theory of information. You give people, right? The left uses this, right?  If people read some forbidden books such as Bell Code by Charles Murray or and then Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler, then they'll just mindlessly turn into some antisocial radical. And the zombie bite theory of information is bogus. That isn't how people deal with information. People take information. If it's conducive to the direction they want to go, they will use it. If it's not conducive to the direction they want to go in life, guess what? They won't use it, right? We weren't born yesterday. We're not gullible. Didn't evolve to be gullible. We're skipping over the doctor altogether so that the people will go to their doctor to ask for these medications. Yeah. We have evolved extremely good inner mechanisms to detect when other people are trying to manipulate us. Like, we're terrible at evaluating our own thinking. That's why we need to think socially. But we're very good at detecting when other people are trying to manipulate us. If we weren't, we wouldn't still be here, right? We didn't evolve to be gullible. I mean, it's just incredible. Anyway, I'm sorry. I sort of interrupted you there, but please do. No, no. I live in an offshoot of the empire and it's probably partly as bad as that which is we haven't gotten the gear up. We haven't gotten things up to that speed. I don't think you can have supplements advertised on TV, but I don't think you can have actual, I think this is EU regulation. Not necessarily a bad one. But yeah, it's an insane. So yeah, the European Union is going to fall apart when they allow direct to consumer pharmaceutical advertising. When they allow same freedom of speech to companies as they allow to individuals, then society will just fall apart because people won't be able to resist the allure of pharmaceutical advertising. I don't know. I've probably seen well over a thousand pharmaceutical ads in my life and I've never once gone to my doctor and asked for any of these products, but maybe I'm special. Maybe I'm as special as a Athenian stranger. Yeah, pharmaceutical ads. Did you realize they're robbing you of a big part of your humanity? I don't feel robbed of my humanity by advertising, by propaganda, right? Or the left-wing propaganda out there. I don't think it has reduced my humanity 1%. So this is such a common victimhood talking point on the distant right that is absolutely bogus and stupid, makes no sense, doesn't stand up to any critical examination. But because members of this victimhood group just repeat it endlessly back and forth to each other in different accents and different variations. It's like, oh, advertising, it just robs us of our humanity. Being exposed to the left-wing prospect is, robs us of our humanity. Having a left-wing teacher robs us of our humanity. Our institution is being dominated by the left. It just robs us of our humanity. I recognize that almost all our institutions are dominated by the left. I don't feel like it's robbed me of my humanity.   You've been robbed of your humanity by pharmaceutical advertising and left-wing propaganda. Just not how people work.  Okay, so pharmaceutical ads and left-wing advertising, I just don't feel like it's rubbing me of all of my attention. I feel a lot of agency. I feel like I can determine where my attention goes. I don't have any problem with that. All right, my attention goes where I want it to go. My attention doesn't go to, you know, pharmaceutical advertising or left-wing propaganda unless I choose to engage with it. All right, my phone doesn't ring unless I set my phone to ring. Usually 95% of the time I have my phone on do not disturb. All right, I don't allow the outside world to run my life. I like to think I have a sense of agency over my own life and I'm not going to put up with it. All right, I love being here in Australia. I love my free time. I love directing my attention where I want, which is just, you know, being bored and focusing and kind of relaxing limbically in your surrounding. Like it's that is much important and amazing point is, oh wow, that's such an important and amazing point.  That people can't relax, you know, without just taking in left-wing propaganda and pharmaceutical advertising. People just helpless in the face of this and when they relax, then they take this in and they become programmed by it and it rubs them of their humanity. I don't know, I feel like I can decide what I want to take in and even if I take it in, doesn't mean I need to act on it. We've evolved very good mechanisms for detecting when institutions, advertisers, businesses, friends, family, community, strangers trying to manipulate and influence us. All right, we're not helpless. I think that sort of defines my existence, certainly on Twitter is.  How are we supposed to slow down in this world that is so fast paced? How are we supposed to slow down?  Listen to classical music, read a book, go to church, get a synagogue. Are we prevented from doing any of these things? How are we prevented from slowing down? I just don't see it. That's how the social media is. That's how they make us addicted to it, right? As you expect, the immediate returns on things. I can still remember. Oh, they just make us addicted and we have no choice. We have no say, we have no power. All right, we're just forced to mindlessly doom scroll on Facebook and Twitter. You can uninstall the apps. You can drop your account. You can reduce the amount of time you spend with social media. Yeah, businesses, not just businesses, individuals, communities, groups are always trying to act in their self-interest, right? They're trying to get you to do things. You've evolved really good mechanisms to see through their manipulations and act in your best interests. Remember when all you had to worry about was, now people will absolutely go insane if they can't find a YouTube instructional video on how to do whatever their math assignment is. Okay, if you go insane because you can't find a YouTube instructional video, there's nothing to do with YouTube. That has to do with you, right?  You had a few more mates. You had a sense of community. You had a church or a synagogue, right? If you had good relations with family, extended family, all right, you wouldn't be nearly so anxious or just get to a good therapist or the appropriate 12-step program. It's treating us as though we're infants and stupid, but...
