Hello everyone welcome back to another session in dentistry and more today we have benign tumors That is we are studying most common for benign tumors squamous papilloma Veruca vulgaris, which is also known as common. What? keratocantoma and oral nevus tumor is nothing but a Swirling a simple swirling of the tissue If we apply very strict protocol, we cannot say that it is a Neopelastic process, but sometimes we interchangeably use tumor and neoplasm So the tumors of oral cavity we can divide it is based on the tissue of origin They are basically five types one is epithelial in origin and the second one is Connective tissue in origin third one is muscular and fourth one is nerve tissue and fifth one is the tumors of Joe metastatic Tumors of Joe So today's session is about epithelial tumors that is epithelial benign tumors of Oral cavity and the very various tumors and n number of tumors But we are mainly focusing on squamous papilloma Veruca vulgaris keratocantoma and oral nevus. So let's see one by one So the first tumor is squamous papilloma Veruca vulgaris. So these two should be studied together because both are caused by HPV virus 6 and 11, okay So this squamous papilloma and veruca vulgaris the causative virus is HPV All HPV lesions are very infective, but the squamous papilloma Do not seem to be contagious. Okay, so this is not very contagious the rest of the HP viruses are contagious So veruca vulgaris. It is also known as Skin what is a generic term for veruca vulgaris? Squamous papilloma and veruca vulgaris all which is also known as skin warts. These two are clinically and microscopically are almost same While coming to the clinical features The growth is exophytic pedunculated Painless which is made up of numerous small finger-like projections Which result in a lesion with roughened or a veruca or cauliflower surface Veruca means a cauliflower which has a cauliflower appearance We know how the common what looks like which will be a pedunculated one And intra-orlet is most commonly on the tongue, lips, Bacchal mucosa, Ginger palate and the area adjacent to uvula and The common what the common what or Eureka vulgaris which is a tumor of skin, which is analogous to oral papilloma But uncommon on the oral mucous membrane. However, these can be seen on the lips and occasionally intra-orly In patients with veruca on the hands or fingers So patients with veruca vulgaris or skin what on the hands or fingers Sometimes the intra-oral lesions also will be present Because these people they have the tendency to Fingers sucking or fingernail beating there will be auto-inoculation from the fingers to the oral cavity And Along with scoma is papilla. We need to study the cowden syndrome So papillomatics or pebbly lesions and fibromas of various sites in the oral cavity are recognized as one of the Many manifestations of multiple hama-toma and neoplasia syndrome, which is known as Cowden syndrome, so it has both fibromas and papilloma so In histologic features it has long thin finger-like projections Extending above the mucosal surface each made up of continuous layer of stratified squamous cells stratified squamous cells That is epithelium and which contains a thin central connected tissue core which supports the nutrient blood vessels The essential feature is proliferation of the spina cells in the papillary pattern, spina cells Which proliferate in a papillary pattern and the connected tissue Is supportive stroma and it is not a part of this neoplastic element. So Mainly it happens on the spina cells in the papillary pattern Okay, we have you know papillary layer and reticular layer and connective tissue layer And the next Thing is koelosites koelosites Which is a hpv altered epithelial cells with perinuclear clear spaces and pycnotic nuclei And it may or may not be found in the superficial layers of epithelium So koelosites are also associated with ferruca vulgaris And moving on to the treatment The Most accepted treatment as we all know is excision Including the base of the mucosa into which the pedicle inserts. So there is a Pedicle the stalk is there. So We need to remove the base of the mucosa where this pedicle inserts If it is properly excised the recurrence chance is very rare Some other methods also we have like conservative surgical excision Curatage and also newer methods like liquid nitrogen cryotherapy And topical keratolytic agents which the agents liquids which containing salicylic acid Salicylic acid And lactic acid. So these are keratolytic agents And also cryotherapy Also we can opt but most commonly excision is opted So that is all about squamous papilloma or verruca vulgaris. Now, let's move on to the keratocantoma Keratocantoma which is also known as self healing casinoma moluscum sebacea or verucoma verucoma So all these are keratocantomas other names. It is a relatively common low-grade malignancy Which originate in the pillow sebaceous glands So sebaceous glands pillow sebaceous glands And it is considered to be a variant of invasive squamous cell casinoma the common etiological Factors are sunlight chemical casinogens trauma HPV virus genetic factors and impuno immunocompromised status So it occurs in all age group But incidence increases with age men to women is two ways to understate is commonly seen on men And more common in fair skin people And in sun exposed areas, so it is mostly associated with the sunlight exposure So fair skin and sun exposed areas are more prone to This keratocantoma the face neck and awesome of upper extremities are the most common sites Intra oral lesions are Quite uncommon now may be seen on the lips because it is exposed to sunlight and The lesions are typically solid tree elevated umbilicated or Creator form with a depressed central core or plague So a depressed central core And it is often painful and there will be a regional lymphadenopathy And in histologic features this consists of hyperplastic Squamous epithelium which grows into the underlying connective tissue So, you know, this is epithelium and Connective tissue when we take a epithelial cross section So there will be hyperplastic squamous epithelium which grows into the connective tissue And the surface is covered by a layer of para or ortho keratin with central plugging And at the deep Margin of this tumor there will be islands of epithelium Which invades and usually this area cannot be differentiated from squamous cell cosinoma So sometimes it may also invade the perineural spaces But this is not a distinguishing feature between squamous cell cosinoma and keratocantoma So it is misdiagnosed as squamous cell And there will be a pseudo-cosinomatous infiltration which typically Presents as a smooth well demarcated front that does not extend beyond the level of sweat glands And the connective tissue shows chronic inflammatory cell infiltration So The characteristic feature is found at the margins where the normal adjacent epithelium is elevated towards the central portion of the crater Okay, so this is a crater So at the margin we get the normal adjacent epithelium It will be elevated towards the central portion it will be elevated towards the central portion Of the crater there an abrupt change in the normal epithelium As the hypoplastic acanthotic epithelium is reached So there will be hyper plastic acanthotic acanthotic epithelium Is reached at this borders. So that is why diagnosis may be impossible if the normal adjacent epithelium is not included in the biopsy. So always we should take normal and along with the lesion So without the normal epithelium, we will not be able to differentiate the margins So this is where the Unique feature of keratocerectoma lies which can differentiate it from squamous cell cosinoma So in treatment part Just like any other venanylations, we need to do a surgical excision And patient should follow for the development of any new primary skin Cancer, okay. So that is about keratocerectoma. Next we have oral nevy Next we have nevers Which is a benign exophytic pigmented congenital lesion of skin or mucosa, which is composed of focal collection of frowned melanocytes So these melanocytes are known as nevers cell The term nevers we commonly used for mole and nevy most Commonly occur on skin occasionally on mucous membrane And it is also called as birthmark. So birthmark and mole, we are Generic terms, we are commonly using these two terms. They are nothing but nevers So we have five types of nevers. The first one is intradermal or mucosal Junctional nevers, compound nevers, blue nevers, which is also known as macular form And epithelioid nevers or it is known as spitz We'll start with the intramucosal Nevers or intradermal nevers So it the lesion grows very slowly. It is usually less than one centimeter and It is occurs on young patients and is one of the Common skin lesion on this young group of people On skin, it is a raised or a flat lesion And it is tan or dark brown in color It will often contain more hair than the surrounding normal skin And the intramucosal nevers occurs in oral cavity mostly on heart palate and jinjiva heart palate Or jinjiva, okay And it is asymptomatic pigmented brown or black in color And it is like a slightly elevated papule or flat macule So it will be a slightly elevated with presence of hair on the skin or sometimes without hairs And sometimes it will be a flat macule. So it could be a elevated papule Or a flat macule Okay So in histopathology it is characterized by nests, chords or sheets of nevers cells confined to connective tissue And the cells of nevers may be epithelioid lymphocyte Like or spindle or multinucleator types There will be mitotic figures and the most Striking feature of nevers is a presence of fibrous connected tissue zone which separates it from the Overlying epithelium. Okay. So these are the histopathology features And the treatment has a general rule for all solitary pigmented papules or nodules Of the oral cavity. It should go for Exition And once excised anyway, uh, do not tend to recur. So recurrence is Uh, very Few percentage And the second one is junctional nevers, which is benign brown toe black lesion occurs primarily on the skin and occasionally on oral mucosa And within oral cavity, it usually appears as a pigmented macular maculation on the heart palate or genieva So maculation will not be very much elevated. It is Just a color change, uh, which we can see on the surface unlike papule, which will be a elevated lesion And in junctional nevers, the histopathology is characterized by presence of neversal nest in the basilar region of epithelium and, uh There is no neversals found in surround connected tissue And it presents as a solitary small pink to reddish brown papule. So the color is, uh Pink or reddish brown. It occurs on the skin of face and extremities of children In histopathology It is usually composed of spindle shaped and large epithelioid nevers With abundant cytoplasm and it is relatively circumscribed Uh nest located at or near the dermal and epidermal interface. It is multi-nucleated And the treatment is conservative excision So that's all about, uh, nevers We have five types, intradermal or intramucosal, junctional, compound, blue and epithelioid spits The intra the mixed pattern Of intradermal and junctional that is seen in the basal region and, uh, Connected tissue, which is known as compound The color is blue and pink here And junctional epithelium has potential to change malignant melanoma Most of the lesions are seen in heart, palate and ginger and the treatment is excision and we should send for Exitional biopsy Okay, so that is all about nevers


Thank you very much Melissa for Nokia being such a strong partner of Green Digital Action Track here at COP28. Why is it important for you? Thank you. First of all we are so honored to be part of this event. At Nokia we believe there is no green without digital and importantly we know that we can't address all of the challenges that we have on climate if we don't act together. This is the perfect example of how coming together we can help solve these challenges. So thank you. Thank you very much for being with us and partying with us on this. Thank you.


Hi, my friends call me Lyme and I wear glasses once in a while, actually last comment episode I kept reading some of the comments wrong so I had to do a lot of retakes so I figured that maybe I should wear my glasses. So this is what you had to say about nervousness, crazy eyed gamer says, I believe that this might be one of my biggest issues, I talked to one of my friends today and this video helped me support my idea. My goal is going to be to be crazy like my name and create funny, genuine content. I need to enjoy myself more and talk more and try to get over the fear of talking to large or even small audiences, thanks for this tip line. Exactly, go with your fire, go with who you are and that in turn will help you take care of both nervousness and genuineness. I'm very happy to have helped you to get to confidence to just go with what you want to do. Master Tate, Tatey, let me see, no not Russian, Tite, okay that's the one I'm going with. Master Tite says, does anyone have tips on building up confidence on vlogging in public? So far I do it either in my house or in the local area when no one is there, would really appropriate, I think they mean appreciate, some advice on becoming more confident. Yeah, I hear you, I have that problem too. The few times that I do vlogging public, it can be like 10 seconds but it takes me 10 minutes to emotionally prepare for it and I even have trouble rehearsing in a rehearsal room by myself just because I'm afraid that people outside might hear me and what helps me is a little bit of mental reprogramming and experience, I figure that no one expects you to be good in a rehearsal room and so you don't have to be good and so I just kept doing it and after a while you just get used to it and if you don't believe me then listen to this guy. It was Jovi who said that, as someone who's gone from having state fright to giving a talk to an auditorium of a hundred plus university students, I can tell you the best, oh really? Blue screen, okay problem solved, it was Jovi. As someone who's gone from having state fright to giving a talk to an auditorium of a hundred plus university students, I can tell you the best way to overcome nervousness is to practice like hell, constantly put yourself in a position where you need to speak, whether it be to a camera, five people or 50 people, realize that no one cares about your mistakes more than you so don't be afraid to mess up because it will only make you better. And this is a great tip. If you have a specific situation that makes you very nervous then keep doing it because you will eventually get used to it. Start small and then work your way up to what you want to achieve. Keep in mind though that people are different and there might be different reasons for why you're nervous and so different tips might be the best tips for different people. Empyrogon says, oh man I've had so much trouble with nervousness for as long as I can remember. Not too long ago I realized something that has helped me tremendously ever since. I realized that it's okay to be nervous and make mistakes.  Something that I've learned on all my years on stage is that mistakes have entertainment value. The audience usually loves when you make mistakes on stage. On some productions it's actually a tradition to on the last episode throw in as many surprises as you can unrehearsed things to throw your co-actor off balance making them laugh when they're not supposed to and the audience loves it. And actually mistakes can help your audience to connect with you because it shows that you're human. If you're too perfect then you don't have that effect as much. The One Sin says, I'm too awesome to be nervous. What did I just say? Dealer4519 says, well done, sometimes I pretend that my audience are my friends. I tend to be less nervous if speaking to a group of my friends. Only it's very common to think of your audience as a threat. But they're really not, they're actually on your side. They want you to do well, otherwise they wouldn't get a good show. So that's it for this episode, thank you for watching. I don't think that I ever talked about my own channel, I have a channel called Proud to Be Fruit where I aim to empower LGBT plus people and allies by providing arguments and debunking myths by looking at what the research actually says. And I do this because I want to contribute to a more accepting world and help any LGBT plus person who struggle with an inner conflict to realize that there's nothing wrong with you. So there should be like some button somewhere here that takes you to my channel. So wherever it is, click it and I'll see you there. Until then, bye.


We think the only way to do business is cutting each other's throat. No. We are beginning to understand more than competition, whole lot of competitors, die-hard competitors are today all cooperating with each other, collaborating with each other. A collaboration, a collaborative process is a far more powerful process than a competitive process. It's a wrong idea that only when you push to the wall you'll do your best. It's a very wrong idea. You tell me. When does your body and brain work at your best? Does it work at its best when you're joyful, peaceful or does it work at your best when you push to the wall? Human potential is at its best only when there is a certain level of pleasantness within the human being and people who are taking positions of power and responsibility have this responsibility that they must do this to put it in a very simplistic manner. See if I meet any of you, when you're very happy, I'm sure you're wonderful people. But if I happen to meet you when you're angry, frustrated, miserable about something, you could be nasty, isn't it? Yes or no? This is true with every human being. So when you rise to your position of power and responsibility, the first and foremost thing is just this, that you have to make yourself it an extremely pleasant being because if you become blissful and pleasant, you will naturally do your best to everything around you. There is no other way for a human being. Joy is an insurance, that's all I'm saying.


We're going to look at how HTTPS works. So before we do that, let's look at a brief example of why HTTPS is not good for web security. When you use normal HTTP, then the problem is that others can see your data. So I'll show a simple example of that before we see how HTTPS works. In the setup, we have this virtual network with three nodes to get started, and node one is going to be our web browser, and it's connected to a router at node two, and three is our web server. There's a web server running with some fake website for this demonstration, we'll see. And at node two, which is a router connecting the two nodes, I'm going to be, say, the malicious user and intercept. Let's say there's a malicious user on node two, we're going to see, well, what can they observe when the web browser is accessing the web server? Very simple case. When we request a web page and it sends back the response, we'll see what node two sees. Note that in this simple network, there's one router, but in the internet, the malicious user could be anyone between node one and node three, the browser and server. Anyone along the path. So there's a web server running on node two, we won't look at that. We will look at node, sorry, running on node three. Node two will be our router and will intercept some traffic. How am I going to intercept traffic? How would our malicious user on node two intercept the traffic sent between node one and node three? What software could they use? What's the name of the software that we could use to intercept the traffic, to get a copy of the traffic? Wireshark and on the command line, because I don't have a GUI here, I would use TCP dump. So, yes, there's different software available, Wireshark does it, but here I only have the command line, so I'll use TCP dump, and TCP dump just records all the packets coming in and out of this computer. And I've created the command before, it's a bit complex to get a nice output, so you don't need to remember, but the TCP dump command is going to record all the packets, and it's not going to show all of them on the screen, because I don't want to show all the irrelevant ones, it's just going to show the HTTP request and response, report 80, and other options to say ignore the SIN packets and so on. So I'm going to run TCP dump, and it's going to sit and run, we'll zoom in when we need to, and then I'm going to run the web browser on node one. What software will I use? Web browser, WGET I could use, not a very nice web browser if I want to click on some links though. Anything else? And remember, a text-based web browser, you'll need it for your upcoming homework, links is one, so again I don't have a GUI on this node, so I can't use Firefox or another graphical browser, so I've got a very simple one called links. And the web server is running a web application, it uses PHP, it has a database or some data, and it's a web server for showing the grades of students. The domain name is www.myuni.edu, and the grading system is under grades directory. So links is the web browser, I'm going to visit that, and it takes me to this page, and let's just see on our capture, what do we just capture, because I just visited a web page. I opened up my browser and visited a particular link, there's a lot of details here, but some of the things you may recognize, it shows us the TCP packet, this is the HTTP GET request, so the first packet we see in the capture is my browser sending a GET request to the server, and the GET request says get the slash grades slash file, and it provides a set of options, the options indicate the host, what language we accept and other options, so this is what we see in the capture, and the next packet here is the response, the server sends back everything's okay, some header fields, and in the response, if we scroll down, we see the actual HTML is sent, so this is what our malicious user has seen so far, it's seen me requesting the grades URL, and so the web page coming back, the HTML asking me to log in, we'll come back to that as we visit some pages, so this grade systems allows me to log in, so click log in, and it prompts me for a password, username and password, I remember one username, actually we'll start with this one, username's just an ID number, and the password, don't look what I type, okay there's one security technique, when I type it doesn't show the letters that I type, it shows stars, how long is my password, there are seven stars there, so that's one thing with password entry, you see some systems, they won't show what you type, now if they show a star here, one problem with this approach is that if someone sees this, they know at least my password is seven characters, so that may reveal something to them, maybe it be better if it didn't show anything at all, and if you create or change your password on a Linux command line you'll see that happen, you're typing something in but there's no feedback at all, and that doesn't reveal anything about the length of the password to the user, to someone who observes, so there's a security feature in how it gives the feedback, I type in the password and then I'm going to click on the login link, let's just zoom out of our, we're still capturing, we'll look at the capture in a moment, we click on the login link, do I want to allow cookies, yes, takes a bit of time, a very slow website, and then it takes me welcome user five with nine zeros, you can now view your grades, and if we see in our capture the router, the malicious user sees the welcome page, what else are they going to see up here, what did node two see, and we'll try and find it in a moment, well what do you expect to see in the capture, node two is a malicious user, they've captured packets between browser and server, what are they going to see, which is a valuable to node two, let's scroll up and see if we recognize anything, so this is the last packet, so we'll go up to the previous packets, where do we get to, this was the login page, so that was the original login page, this was, so this was the request sent by my browser, note that it's using a post method in HTTP, HTTP we commonly use the get method to get a web page from the server, but sometimes we send data to the web server using a form for example, so that often uses the post method, you can use the get method, but post is generally better, which we send data to the web server and that data is included inside the HTTP header fields, sorry in the data after the header fields, can anyone recognize that valuable data, these are header fields, we keep going down to content type, content length, this is the data, this is the data of the request, it shows us the values of the fields that I typed in on that login page, I typed in my username, I typed in my password which you didn't see and then I hit the submit button or login button and those values are sent to the web server and that's how the post is used here, they're sent to the web server, they're sent in this HTTP get request in the clear, so if you capture this packet you see the user's password and that's the problem, many login, well that's a major problem with using HTTP, whenever someone logs in, they send their password to the server and it's not encrypted, anyone between the browser and the server, if they can intercept, they can see the password and steal your logins to your different websites, so they can see the password and of course they can see other information that may be confidential, all the web pages that come back, returning to the grading website, this user is logged in, now they want to view their grades, they want to view the grades for maybe what course, ITS 335, they don't want anyone else to know what their grade is, all right, they're a good student, they got a B plus, again if we look at the capture, what was captured by node 2, all of that web page, so the person who intercepts knows this confidential information that they got a B plus for example, so we can't use HTTP if we want to transfer confidential information across the internet for web browsing, so we use HTTPS.


This is the interface to the carbon cycle model that we'd be working within this module if we Clicked on this button here. We would see a view of what the carbon cycle Looks like that's implemented in this model. It's a complicated thing But it's a very realistic carbon cycle model that's going to allow us to explore in a pretty realistic way What will happen to atmospheric CO2 and to other aspects of the carbon cycle as we Change the burning of fossil fuels and the human effect on this particular system This carbon cycle model here is attached to a little climate model It's you can see the edge of it over here That's the same one that we worked at it within module three and so the carbon cycle model will will control the atmospheric CO2 Concentration here and then that will feed into the climate model here and control the greenhouse effect and then the Temperature determined by the climate model will then come back and affect different parts of the carbon cycle model here So let me show you how to work this this model If you run it just the way you First open it you'll see it calculates the the global temperature change over time So zero is is the temperature at 1880 But that's this is temperature relative to that time and then the temperature rises as we go to the year 2000 and 2100 Now these switches down in here control different histories or scenarios of fossil fuel burnings the business as usual Emissions scenarios what we ran first so when this switch is on it uses that business as usual scenario And it looks like this where the carbon emissions just go up and up and up with no change all the way to 2100 If we click this off And leave this switch off. It's going to implement a scenario in which the fossil fuel burning just levels off So after the year 2010 it just levels off like this So we hold emissions constant and we can see what happens to the the temperature in the rest of the system in that case If we turn this switch on like that it will implement this scenario here There's a very unrealistic one where after 2010 we drop quickly down to zero Fossil fuel burning for the rest of time. So this is the really dramatic case Just to see how the system will respond to that change Now you can graph different parts of the system here. We can look at the atmospheric co2 concentration Here we can look at the ocean pH Here we can look at where the carbon goes how much of it what fraction of it stays in the the atmosphere what fraction goes into the Biosphere and what fraction goes into the oceans? This shows us the details of the fossil fuel burning history that we applied in that case And this plots both the atmospheric co2 concentration and the fossil fuel burning history together so you can see how they compare This shows the values of carbon and all the different reservoirs in the carbon cycle model This is the cumulative amount of carbon that we've released over time. So it just gets bigger and bigger and bigger This is not the annual map of the cumulative Now this is an interesting one to look at because it goes from 1880 to 2010 so the period of time that we know something about and it plots in Red the actual observed atmospheric co2 level and in blue the co2 level that the model calculates And so you can see that those two are very close throughout this whole time And so that means that that our carbon cycle model coupled with the climate model is giving us a result that matches a Historical record and so we say we have a good model and we can we can Essentially trust what it tells us in terms of projections off into the future you


Hello everybody, I'm Ivor Abbot. We're here on a set of Corsa in a RB-26 Salady on a mountain road with the R21. So you guys know what's gonna happen We're gonna be drifting with the R21 in this episode. So make sure you follow me on all social media All is found in the description box below. Let's get to it So of course obviously again a massive Thank you to Moza Racing for being a continued partner and hooking me up with the R21 We have a Salady here RB-26 powered Salady and this thing Is loud and I believe we can flip that pack. That's actually such a sweet animation So we're gonna go full send on this mountain road And of course will end the episode off with the replay angle But there's going to be first impressions of the R21 in drifting So I have everything set Basically how I did my Moza R9 But I have full force feedback full power in The wheelbase, but I have the force feedback limited in the game So full feedback in the wheel but limited in the game until I believe about 40% in game So we're gonna go full send And we're just gonna see what happens First impressions of the R21 in drifting here on some mountain roads Of course, we've got the Moza handbrake on lock as well with the V2 steering wheel Whoo, gotta clutch kick that out. So first impressions of the wheel it is quite nice It feels very smooth now. Like I said, we do have it turned down to about 40% in game force feedback because of how much Feedback this wheel can input out with the 21 newt meters of force But we do ooh, we do have it at 100% on the pit house app. So Utilizing all of the torque out of the wheelbase, but limiting it in game feedback Is definitely a way to go and I've been hearing a lot of people tell me about doing it that way I actually like this RV 26 S13, it's a lady. We're kind of just rolling through this Mountain road. I'll leave the link for the car as well as the track in the description box below As I say that we go a little bit nose into that We got this little tire drop Quick tab of the e-brake there just to get us Lightly get out of the grass before that tire To get a slightly angled up and then slowed down with the foot brake Good taking that turn way faster What I am truly impressed with how this R21 is feeling definitely gonna probably Make a video with full force feedback and full which I probably would definitely not recommend doing because that could be Extremely dangerous and very painful And we would probably be in that ambulance. That's right there If we were running it and it might be too much force feedback First sliding to this car around this car is so good I like this car so much right now It's making this wheel feel so buttery. I thought we're gonna go ahead first into that guardrail. We're not a Not doing too too bad here for first rips with the 21 in a sideways aspect Wow, we actually made it all the way up without crashing I Am thoroughly impressed with that The 21 feel is actually quite nice. So we're gonna take a look at the replay camera. Oh Those pops are so loud So the s13 the saliti felt quite nice. We are 21 in a first initial throwdown and drifting is definitely Very nice and extremely smooth Comfortable to my R9 now, of course I'm running a little bit lower in-game feedback with the 21 because of how high the new meter force is Compared to I was when I was running my R9 but the feeling in the 21 is Just more force feedback more feel in the wheel more ability to change say to make a car feel like it really doesn't have Power steering and stuff like that, which is nice to have that extra force feedback Feeling the R9 was definitely an incredible base still love my R9 great for drifting great for Driving and everything this R21 just a beast above with the feel of that and this track was so much fun Look at that nice nice flick entry. There we go Yeah, that 13 is getting it Salini s13 front This tracks fun track definitely have to bring some bigger cars Maybe some other people do some tandems on this because this would be a fun Toge tandem track with some street cars like this car So I think that's good to hear for the first impressions of this can be doing a lot of drifting videos with this wheel I'm gonna be cranking up the power cranking up the rotations having a lot of fun with the new 21 and Thank once again thanking Moses racing for making this possible and you know Just so you guys know that there's gonna be a lot of content coming out with this as well as you know Other wheels like my R9 and things like that you know for racing aspects drifting aspects with this Compared to that and comparing my R5 R9 and R21 in a whole and giving you my impression of you know Which you know wheel is you know the best for say entry level which of course is going to be the R5 You know for a serious competitor in drifting for just the fun of it You know and things like that and you know I'm so thankful to have a partner like moza to make all this stuff possible and this Wheel is just incredible We're so done some solid lines So I'm gonna let you lay back and listen to the final part of this in the replay Make sure you guys follow me on all social media and like appreciate it's coming back. I'm evil rabbit. I'll see you guys on the track


Our count in John chapter 11 began John chapter 11 verse 1 The Lord Jesus Christ is preaching in the region of Batanea beyond the Jordan Which is about 90 miles northeast of Jerusalem. It's about a four-day walk In John chapter 11 verse 3 he receives word That Lazarus the brother of Mary and Martha is critically ill He's on his deathbed in Bethany near Jerusalem Now John records here that Jesus loves Martha and Mary and Lazarus and so in love for them for their good Jesus waits until he knows in his omniscience that Lazarus has died before he makes the four-day journey by foot to Bethany So despite the great danger evidenced by threats from those in nearby Jerusalem and Imperfect obedience to the revealed will of the father who sent him The Lord then arrives in Bethany with his disciples in verse 17 after Lazarus has been dead and in the tomb for four days Decomposition has set in there's a stench of death filling the tomb No silly superstition about a hovering soul is going to cast doubt on the miracle that's about to take place He arrives in Bethany and he speaks first with Martha and then with Mary and then with the mourners who follow her out He groans within himself in verse 33 Righteous indignation in response to unbelief in response to weak faith in Response to the ravages of sin and death and the sorrow that always accompanies them And so then he comes to the tomb to face his enemy death itself He commands those standing by to roll away the stone and he prays to the father Bearing witness that he's been sent by God into the world and Then with a loud voice he calls Lazarus forth from the dead Lazarus come forth So Lazarus hobbles out bound in his grave clothes This miracle in John chapter 11 is undeniable Those for Jesus and those against Jesus all attest to it verse 45 ends With many believing in the Lord Jesus Christ who is the resurrection in the life. I Want you to consider with me now as we get into our text today the purpose for which Jesus Christ has Raised Lazarus from the dead and consequently the purpose for which this miracle is recorded in our Bibles And that purpose is stated for us by the Lord himself in verse 4 He says there this sickness is not unto death But for the glory of God that the Son of God may be glorified through it as We work through our text today. I want to be sensitive to that purpose Considering the Lord's purpose here. I want to take some time in the beginning To set up the main point of the verses that we are blessed to study together this morning Namely John 11 verses 46 through 57. So now follow along as we go through this Think think as we go engage with the text good expository listening Okay, ask the Spirit of God to renew your mind to reveal the glory of God from this text as it is his purpose to do that Jesus Christ raised Lazarus from the dead to reveal the glory of God and so that the Son of God would be glorified in it That's why after this point. We don't hear much more from Lazarus We don't hear much about what Lazarus felt. What he thought We don't know what was going on with him much after this point And we don't know what was going through his mind when he faced death a second time That's because here in John 11. This story is not ultimately about Lazarus It's not ultimately about Martha. It's not ultimately about Mary or the mourners or the murderous Jews Who have come out of Jerusalem? This story is about the greatness and glory of Almighty God Going forth and conquering in his son our Lord the Lord Jesus Christ So now think about it. How is then God glorified in the raising of Lazarus? How is the Son of God glorified through it in what way in this text is God's glory revealed to us? Now think about what's going on here for a moment God's glory is revealed in raising Lazarus from the dead Because raising Lazarus from the dead demonstrates God's power Who in the world has power to raise the dead? No one but God and We are to stand in awe at the power of God and in that God is glorified, right? When you see God's power displayed and you stand in awe of the power of God to raise the dead God is glorified in that The raising Lazarus from the dead also demonstrates the Lord's authority over life and death itself Jesus here if you think about it, Jesus didn't have to shout with a loud voice Lazarus come forth He is the resurrection in the life Jesus Christ could have raised Lazarus from the dead without a word in infinite power He shouts with a loud voice in verse 43 To communicate to us his supreme authority over life and death And in that supreme authority over life and life and death God is glorified We see his glory don't we we see his glory revealed the one who has power the one who has authority over life and death itself But this account in John chapter 11 of Jesus Christ raising Lazarus from the dead also demonstrates his omniscience His knowledge of all things it demonstrates his sovereignty his all encompassing and dominating rule and reign over all things Raising Lazarus from the dead demonstrates his goodness doesn't it his compassion His love it's depicted here in John 11. It depicts his his benevolence his kindness his grace his mercy But think about it the necessity of raising Lazarus after sickness and death Doesn't it also reveal his justice? reveal his holiness But ultimately here raising Lazarus from the dead Reveals God's glory in the glory of the Son through his progressing work of redemption He is saving people from their sins He has come to seeking to save that which is lost and so all this is a picture of the redemptive work of God in Christ in all of this God is glorified God's glory is revealed and we are to stand in awe of that We're to look at this and Revel in the glory of God God's nature God's character is displayed in these many and varied ways in this one event in John chapter 11 of Christ raising Lazarus from the dead the glory of God is revealed our Response should only be to stand in awe of that glory, but our response should also be to believe Jesus says down in verse 14 He says this Lazarus is dead And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there why So that you may believe so you may believe we're to stand in awe of God But we're to be able to believe in him to trust him to follow him So as we work through John 11 here though I want you to think about another way Another way in which God's glory is revealed here And it's another way in which God's glory is revealed throughout the Bible. I would submit to you It's another way in which God's glory is revealed in the lives of his people It's a way in which God glorifies himself and it's this God's nature God's character his power his authority his omniscience his sovereignty his grace his justice his holiness and so on All that all that which reveals his glory is not only displayed here in raising Lazarus from the dead But it's also displayed in God's victory over his enemies Jim Hamilton calls it God's glory revealed in salvation through judgment raising Lazarus from the dead Reveals the glory of God and the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ in his victory over death Christ conquers death His glory is revealed in his victory over his enemies every Enemy will be put in subjection under the boot of Christ It is he's glorified in his victory over man's sin and rebellion Although man's wickedness is great Man's way it appears to us that man's wickedness cannot reach a higher watermark. It is so prevalent it is so wicked so overwhelming, but God Conquers the flesh God conquers sin and death He conquers over man's sin and rebellion our God is a conquering victorious God He reigns supreme all his plans for his people to glorify himself Will come to pass and in that think about that now for a moment in God's victory in his going forth and Conquering God is glorified, isn't he and we are to be in awe of that glory And we are to believe and trust in him and to follow him Here's another way to think about it God's glory is not only revealed in giving grace to the humble, but what? But also in casting down the proud Think about that for a moment God's glory is revealed in his victory over all who oppose him in First Corinthians chapter 15 beginning in verse 24 turn there with me first Corinthians chapter 15 beginning in verse 24 Paul says it this way first Corinthians chapter 15 beginning in verse 24 When the end comes he that's Christ Christ delivers the kingdom to God the father When he puts an end think about God's victory He puts an end to all rule and all authority and all power Verse 25 for he Christ must reign till he has put all enemies under his feet The last enemy that will be destroyed verse 26 is death For he has put all things under his feet, but when he says all things are put under him It is evident that he who put all things under him is accepted Now when all things are made subject to him When God is ultimately fully and finally Victorious over his enemies then the son verse 28 himself will also be subject to him who put all things under him that God may be all in all God is glorified in triumph God is glorified in victory. God is invincible God is undeterred God is unassailable Unstoppable and in that God is glorified Daniel said in chapter 4 verse 35 all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing He does according to his will in the army of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth No one can restrain his hand or say to him. What have you done? Our God conquers Listen to this from Isaiah chapter 46 beginning in verse 8 Remember this the prophet says and show yourselves men Recall to mind Isaiah says oh you transgressors Remember the former things of old he calls them to remember his greatness He calls them to remember his many victories on their behalf. He says for I am God and there is no other I am God and there is none like me Declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things that are not yet done saying My counsel shall stand and I will do all my pleasure Calling a bird of prey from the east the man who executes my counsel from a far country Indeed God says I have spoken it and I will also bring it to pass. I have purposed it I will also do it. He says listen to me You stubborn hearted who are far from righteousness. Listen. I bring my righteousness near It shall not be far off my salvation shall not linger and I will place Salvation in Zion for Israel my glory Our God conquers our God is victorious and he's victorious in every way doing all his will Now let's heed the words of Isaiah here. Let's remember some of those former things of old Remember the Israelites in bondage They're in bondage in Egypt under the oppression of Pharaoh Where by strength of his hand God brings them out Right and they're standing at the bank of the Red Sea if you remember the story The Egyptians are closing in from behind and Moses says this to them in Exodus chapter 14 verse 13 He says do not be afraid Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord see the glory of God in his victory He says see the salvation of the Lord which he will accomplish for you today And he doesn't merely save the Israelites. He judges the Egyptians He says for the Egyptians whom you see today. You shall see again. No more forever God Wipes out his enemies God is victorious and fully and finally victorious. God conquers Paul says this of that account in Romans chapter 9 Paul says for the scripture says the Pharaoh For this very purpose I have raised you up that I might show my power in you that I might show my Glory in you that my name may be declared in all the earth in other words I was victorious over you Pharaoh so that I would be glorified. That's what God is saying here our God reigns Remember the story of the Israelites when they're in the wilderness now and they're about to Come to the edge of the promised land and they refuse to go in turn with me to numbers chapter 14 Take another look at an example of this numbers chapter 14 God's glory revealed in salvation through triumph in Salvation through judgment revealed in salvation through victory in numbers chapter 14 Look down beginning at verse 11 so no the Lord is dealing With a rebellious and stiff-necked people the children of Israel Moses is leading them and so the Lord in verse 11 said to Moses How long will these people reject me and how long will they not believe me with all the signs? Which I have performed among them Listen even the children of Israel when they reject the Lord the Lord will see to it that he's victorious even over them The Lord's plans will not be thwarted by a stubborn and stiff-necked people God will accomplish his plans. God will fulfill his promises. The work of God will be done Regardless here of the disobedience of the Israelites. He says in verse 12 in judgment I will strike them with the pestilence and Disinherent them I will make of you a nation greater and wider than they but Moses Moses intercedes verse 13 And he says to the Lord listen then the Egyptians are gonna hear it Right for by your might you brought these people up from among them and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land They have heard that you Lord are among the people that you Lord are seen face to face and your cloud Stands above them and you go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night Now if you kill these people as one man Then the nations which have heard of your fame will speak saying because the Lord was not Able to bring this people to the land which he swore to them Therefore he killed them in the wilderness. You see what they're accusing God of that's not powerful enough That's not able Now we see the failure of the Israelites. Don't we in the Old Testament Failure after failure after failure after failure after failure after failure So what does our victorious and conquering God do? He makes a new and better covenant in which he says I'll take my law I will write it on your heart. I will God says write it on your hearts. I Will cleanse you from all your idols.  Do I do this God says but for my holy name's sake Because I will be hallowed in the eyes of my people Look here at numbers 14 verse 17 Moses said now I pray let the power of my Lord be great just as you have spoken saying the Lord is long Suffering and abundant in mercy forgiving iniquity and transgression But he by no means clears the guilty visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation Pardon, Moses says in verse 19 the iniquity of this people I pray according to the greatness of your mercy just as you have forgiven this people from Egypt even till now Then the Lord said I have pardoned according to your word But truly as I live God says all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord Because all these men who have seen my glory and the signs which I did in Egypt in the wilderness and have put me to test Now these ten times have not heeded my voice They certainly shall not see the land of which I swore to their fathers now listen The Lord promises my glory Habakkuk says it this way The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea This earth will be filled with a glory of God and Hear those that tested God that grumbled and complained against him that disobeyed him that rejected him that rebelled against him in The wilderness all of them died there and he swore in his wrath.   He is El Gabor.  God says here I have trodden the winepress alone and from the peoples no one was with me For I have troddened them in my anger and trampled them in my fury Their blood is sprinkled upon my garments and I have stained all my robes for the day of Vengeance God says is in my heart and the year of my redeemed has come I looked but there was no one to help and I wonder that there was no one to uphold therefore my own arm brought salvation for me and My own fury it sustained me I have troddened down the peoples in my anger made them drunk in my fury and Brought down their strength to the earth and men think they're strong No one No one strength compares to God's The glory of God is revealed in the salvation of his people through victory over his enemies Are you getting the idea with this? This is a major theme throughout the Bible. It's all over the Bible One more example turn with me to Revelation chapter 18 Revelation chapter 18 Let's look at a consummating victory here Revelation chapter 18 That is yet future again God conquering over his enemies The glory of God revealed in the salvation of his people through victory over his enemies through triumph Look at Revelation 18 and look down at verse 21 Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea saying Thus with violence the great city Babylon shall be thrown down and shall not be found anymore This is the destruction of the whore of Babylon Verse 22 the sound of harpists musicians flutists and trumpeters shall not be heard in you anymore No craftsmen of any craft shall be found in you anymore The sound of a millstone shall not be heard in you anymore. His victory is total The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore The voice of bridegroom and bride shall be shall not be heard in you anymore for your merchants were the great men of the earth For by your sorcery all the nations were deceived and in her was found the blood of prophets and saints and of all Who were slain on the earth? God will glorify himself In saving his people through judgment of those that are on this earth that oppose him look at chapter 19 verse 1 After these things, what's the response of God's people to this? After these things John says I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven saying hallelujah salvation and glory and Honor and power belong to the Lord our God for true and righteous are as judgments You see the the glory and honor ascribed to God in his victory over sinful wicked people and God's people praising the Lord for it shouting hallelujah Babylon has fallen these people are killed. They're wiped out and God's people say amen Because God will be glorified the holiness and justice of God Vindicated in his victory over his enemies He says verse 3 again. They said hallelujah Her smoke rises up forever and ever and the 24 elders and the four living creatures fell down and they worshipped God Who sat on the throne saying amen? Hallelujah, then a voice came from the throne saying praise our God all you servants and those who fear him both small and great And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude and the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings saying Hallelujah for the Lord God omnipotent reigns Let us be glad and rejoice and give him glory For the marriage of the Lamb has come and his wife has made herself ready and to her It was granted to be arrayed in fine linen clean and bright for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints Listen there's there's some in this room Who will be on one side of this victory? One side of this conquering and there are others of you here today Who will be on the other side of that victory on the other side of that conquering? Who's side are you on? Our God conquers Our god is victorious our god will rule and reign and listen If you reject christ If you rebel against him The heart of a believer today bleeds for you pleads with you to turn to christ To live for him to give your heart to him To serve him faithfully and fervently all the days of your life But listen if you rebel against him if you reject him Then in your judgment when you are cast into hell where the smoke rises forever and ever God's people will say amen And they will give him glory for your judgment Listen to me you son you daughter If you don't follow the faith of your parents and put your trust and faith in christ Then your parents will be in heaven one day Looking upon your judgment with nothing else to say Enraptured with a glory of god and agreeing with his vindication. They'll be saying of you and your judgment. Amen Praise god. I don't know how That's gonna happen. I don't know how How my heart will get there because I I want my kids to be saved But god says that it'll be so And you'll agree you'll agree with that judgment when it comes because god Will be hallowed in your eyes He is a holy god He is to be worshiped. He is to be praised and he will be victorious God is invincible the chief example of this theme that runs throughout the bible Is seen in the cross of the lord jesus christ peter said at pentecost He said men of israel hear these words Jesus of nazareth a man attested to god to you by miracles and wonders and signs Which god did through him in your midst as you yourselves also know Him listen being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of god You have taken by lawless hands and have crucified and put to death You've put him to death the one whom god raised up Having loosed the pains of death because it was not possible that he should be held by it Peter later says let all the house of israel know assuredly That god has made this jesus whom you crucified both lord and christ of how much Fierce judgment are those counted worthy who have crucified the lord of gory But of how much fierce judgment are those Counted worthy who trample the blood of christ underfoot And count the blood of the covenant a common thing and reject the lord In his death and in his resurrection christ Conquers all his enemies and ours As spurgeon says jesus christ is the true champion of the church His glory Is revealed in the salvation the salvation of his people through judgment The salvation of his people through triumph through victory And it's that kind of glory that is revealed beautifully in our text today in john chapter 11 john chapter 11 god is invincible his plans are unstoppable no matter how many plots and schemes and enemies come against him He will be victorious in john chapter 11 Verses 1 through 45 In the face of enemies breathing out threats against christ from jerusalem The lord boldly makes his way to bethany And the glory of the lord jesus christ is revealed in bethany in his victory over the grave in his victory over death He is glorified in the resurrection of lazarus But now as we come to verses 46 through 57 at the conclusion of this account God directs our thoughts forward This is a foreshadowing foreshadowing if you will he directs our thoughts forward to Not a resurrection of lazarus from the dead, but the Resurrection of the lord jesus christ from the dead And we see this revelation of his glory in these verses In progress as it were we get to look behind the curtain so to speak Of god's providence He is bringing about the revelation of his glory here through the salvation of his people in the greatest of all victories over his enemies The substitutionary death and resurrection of the lord jesus christ As we begin I want you to see our text opens up With a very important contrast between verses 45 and 46 and this contrast Sets the tone for our passage all right upon the lord raising lazarus from the dead verse 45 says this Many of the jews who had come to mary and had seen these things jesus did believed in him all right That response of people seeing the glory of god revealed in this miracle and believing in the lord jesus christ That response is then contrasted in verse 46 begins with the word but all right Those believed in him but verse 46 some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them the things that jesus did Now jesus's words jesus's works often caused a division between the jews often caused division We've seen that and you could hope that these that ran off to the Pharisees You might hope that they're running off rejoicing in what jesus had done to tell them the wondrous news that jesus has raised lazarus from the dead But the contrast The contrast set up in verse 46 with that word but points to a motivation of malice They're not rejoicing here They're going to tattle on him with the chief priests and scribes and Pharisees and jesus So when verse 46 comes The enemies of the lord now are arraying themselves against the lord The enemies of the lord are embattling themselves against him to the casual observer It might appear to us as we look through this text that with all the opposition Continuously working against the lord that christianity ain't gonna make it right That christianity is destined for a devastating failure. The lord has very few actual followers There's great opposition continuously against him the people and leadership are out to kill him and at every turn He is accused and in battle But this is a text from verses 46 through 57 that is about the lord's victory It is about the lord revealing his glory in victory No matter how things appear to be going God is in control and god is bringing about his victory over his enemies No matter how wicked men plot and scheme against him God will turn those plots and plans over on their heads To reveal his glory in victory That glory is revealed In victory one over judgment. He is victorious in judgment Two will see that he is victorious in salvation And three that he is victorious in time He is victorious in judgment victorious in salvation and victorious in time first He is victorious in judgment over his enemies look at verse 47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said what shall we do? For this man works many signs If we let him alone like this everyone will believe in him and the romans will come and take away both our place and nation So now the enemies of the lord jesus christ Gather themselves together against him in verse 47 sounds like a psalm to me, doesn't it? Right song to why did the nations rage and the people's plot a vain thing The kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers take counsel together against the lord and against his anointed Now here, what does the lord do? What does the lord do? What does the lord do in psalm chapter 2? He who sits in the heaven shall laugh The lord shall hold them in derision Then he shall speak to them in his wrath and distress them in his deep displeasure god reigns God is victorious So nevertheless now in verse 47 Follow me with this the chief priests and the Pharisees take counsel together Just like psalm 2 They don't have the authority to take any judicial action by themselves They needed the approval of the ruling body, which is the sanhedrin at the time And so they call together a council of the sanhedrin And they express their distress with the plotting of a vain thing The question they ask in verse 47 is literally What are we doing? What are we doing in other words? Listen, we're not getting anywhere. This man is doing many signs And so far their plots have been a vain thing They've attempted to trap him in his words and they've been publicly embarrassed by his answers They've attempted to discredit him as a madman or discredit him as a demon demon possessed But he has done many works undeniable works that only god can do And so they've had it with jesus. They're exasperated. What are we doing here? We're not getting anywhere. We're not making any progress They're not effectively dealing with jesus. So what is god doing here? God is holding them in derision, isn't he? What does word derision mean? Derision means a a contemptuous mockery That's why it's he who sits in the heaven. It's why he laughs It's a contemptible mockery a contemptuous mockery. They're doing all they can To get rid of jesus and god who is victorious just sits in the heavens and laughs holding them in derision God is bringing about victory salvation for his people through their judgment And if you look at verse 48 You see a foreshadowing of their judgment They say if we let him alone like this Everyone will believe in him and the romans will come and take away both our place and our nation If we let him keep going like this, everyone's gonna follow him In other words, he's going to be the leader and we lose. That's what they're saying But consider for a moment In verse 48 they're hanging themselves with their own rope One they all acknowledge freely that he is actually working miracles They don't doubt that it's not in question. The lord jesus christ is performing miracles But secondly, no official charge is made against him. They don't bring an official charge They just want to gather the sanhedrin together get a council together to determine what are we going to do about this guy This guy is getting followers and we don't like it. They're going to follow him. They're not going to follow us So far three everything they've attempted to do to stop him has utterly failed And four they admit they acknowledge he's so compelling and believable That if he keeps going like this everybody's going to believe him everybody's going to follow him They say that in verse 48 So now think about those things for a moment in light of this Do these wicked men stop to reconsider the course of action? They think to themselves wait a minute We may be on the wrong side of this thing. We may not have this right in our heads The scripture here ever come up? No, does god ever come up? No This is blind and irrational unbelief They are committed Against god They are committed to destroying him and destroying his work So why are they so threatened by jesus? What is it that they're so afraid to give up The answer is given in verse 48 Where they say the romans will come and take away both our place And nation richard philip says here It's all about policy all about politics power and position No place was given here for the truth the goal of gathering this council together is not to find the truth The goal of this council is to get rid of jesus. They don't care about the truth. They're not concerned with the truth They're concerned about survival essentially These men were struck with an insane fear And their insane fear was over what they might lose if they actually Followed christ and believed him What they might lose if others followed christ and believed him. I was witnessing to a man once I was witnessing to him He stopped the conversation short Just stopped the conversation because he was afraid I might change his mind How irrational is that? You can't be persuaded with the truth of god He didn't want to change his mind. He didn't want to give anything up to follow christ. He was fearful He might change his mind Do you remember the story of the rich young ruler in matthew chapter 19? Give this example to the folks at the funeral yesterday. I want to make sure that everyone else hears it also also Rich young ruler in matthew 19 rich young ruler came to jesus asking what good thing shall I do to inherit eternal life? You remember? Jesus told him if you want to enter into life keep my commandments So what does the rich young ruler say back to jesus all these things he says i've kept from my youth What do I lack? So jesus said to him if you want to be perfect go Sell what you have and give it to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven Come jesus says and follow me What does the rich young ruler do then rather than giving it up the young man It says went away sorrowful Because he had great possession possessions John chapter 11 They don't want to give up their place They don't want to give up their power. They don't want to give up their prestige. They don't want to give up their pride They don't want to give up their leadership They don't want to give anything up. They don't believe that jesus christ is a messiah. They don't want to follow him This reality stands for us as a test Of true faith Verses of fake false or counterfeit faith Do you have a genuine living and saving faith or do you have a spurious false and damning counterfeit faith? Ask yourself the question Do you respond to the demands of following christ like the Pharisees and john chapter 11? Worried about what you might lose Do you respond like the rich young ruler with christ in matthew chapter 19? Not wanting to give it all up to follow christ. It's a test of your faith I asked a question yesterday Which do you think is easier to make a fortune or to give a fortune all the way? I'm making a fortune. It's hard work. It's going to take labor Effort can take years to build wealth right to make a fortune. It's going to be hard work What's easier than simply giving it all away? What's easier than that? Unless you love it Unless you love it unless you love the wealth The rich young ruler loved his wealth more than christ And so he wouldn't give it up I'd submit to you those scribes those Pharisees the people in jerusalem Loved their position loved their place loved their false religion more than christ and would not give it up Now think of your faith in christ in the same way Many today maybe you Find it so easy to say. I believe in christ You find it so easy to say that I want to trust him That he's my treasure that I love the lord so easy to say They find it so easy to say that they've turned from their sin and now trust christ alone until They're faced with giving something up Something they actually by their actions prove that they love more than christ Maybe for you this morning. It's drugs Won't give it up to follow christ Because you love drugs more than christ Maybe for you it's alcohol Maybe it's pornography Maybe you're unwilling to give up your pride To go and ask someone for forgiveness that you know you've wronged Maybe you're not willing To give up some of your comfort To go and bear witness for christ in evangelism now think about it for a moment What are you not willing to give up for christ? Maybe you're not willing to give up being right all the time with your spouse Maybe you're not willing to give up a little sleep to study god's word What is it that by your actions you prove that you love that more than christ to test of your faith?  What does that say about your faith? With these faithless Pharisees in john chapter 11 verse 48 god showed himself To be victorious in their judgment God showed himself to be victorious in their judgment. It was a short time later after this account of john 11 That in ad 70 they did in fact lose their place and lose their nation They rejected their messiah and so god's judgment fell by the hands of the romans Jerusalem was overrun the temple was destroyed the people were scattered and many of those jews Parished at that time in hell forever What about you what about you easy to say right But is your faith genuine? Will you give up everything to follow christ? Do it right now Give up everything to follow christ. Paul said this in Philippians chapter 3 What things were gained to me these i counted loss for christ Yet indeed i also count all things lost for the excellence of the knowledge of christ jesus my lord For whom i have suffered the loss of all things and count them as dung That i may gain christ and be found in him not having my own righteousness Which is from the law But that which is through faith in christ the righteousness which is from god by faith that i may Know him and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of his sufferings and the Glory of his victory being conformed to his death if by any means i may attain to the resurrection from the dead God is victorious and god will be victor Over you in judgment if you're not in christ How much better right to be in christ in victory amen Back in john chapter 11. We also see that god here is victorious in salvation God is victorious in judgment and god is victorious in salvation verse 49 says this one of them Caiaphas being high priest that year said to them After their little despairing diatribe in verses 47 and 48 the romans are going to come they're going to take away our place Our nation everybody's going to believe in christ Caiaphas said to them you don't know anything you know nothing at all Nor do you consider verse 50 that it is better it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people And not that the whole nation should perish Now this verse 51 he did not say on his own authority, but being high priest that year He prophesied that jesus would die for the nation And not for that nation only but also that he would gather together in one The children of god who were scattered abroad now get this all right This is an example of the awesome sovereignty of a conquering god In verse 47 and verse 48 Chief priests and the Pharisees are fearful They say everyone is going to believe in him if he keeps going the romans are going to take away our place in our nation So in verse 49 Caiaphas says you don't know what you're talking about All right now in great irony here It's actually Caiaphas that has no idea what he's talking about He has no idea what is actually coming out of his mouth. Okay He makes a statement in verse 50 and he means one thing by a statement But we know from verse 51 That god has ordained those very words to come out of his mouth And for god they mean something entirely different and let that sink in for a moment God is victorious in saving his people God is in nothing will get in god's way God even uses the words out of this wicked man's mouth to prophesy of his victory This is a beautiful example of the truth that Joseph expressed to his brothers in Genesis chapter 50 verse 20 Joseph said to his brothers as for you you meant evil against me right when they put him in the hole and sold him in slavery But god what did he say god meant it for good in order to bring it about as it is this day to save many people alive Here in john 11 Caiaphas spoke his own mind Caiaphas gave his own opinions. Caiaphas used his own vocabulary on his part. Caiaphas had his own motivation He was callous. He was calculating. He was murderous He exposed his own heart and he sinned here He sinned in furthering the plot to murder Jesus But while Caiaphas was speaking God was also speaking and although they used exactly the same words They weren't saying the same thing. It's amazing to me. This is astounding right You can't stop god proverbs chapter 19 verse 21 says there are many plans in a man's heart Nevertheless the lord's counsel that will stand That god's power is at work here It's at work to overturn everything that Caiaphas is saying and according to verse 51 god uses Caiaphas's own words to prophesy god's victory Caiaphas his words with god's meaning. You see now It goes to show you That god doesn't merely use a bad circumstance And turn it around for good But god is sovereignly Powerfully at work in all circumstances to bring about his good in every way God is sovereignly at work in all things. He is sovereignly at work in history governing circumstances from the very start To work for good now. That's power That's sovereignty God is revealing his glory and sovereignly working to save his people Through victory over all those who think that they're working in opposition to him when in actuality They're just working to bring about his glory for him Caiaphas review rebukes the Pharisees for their despairing statements in verses 47 and 48 And then he being the wicked compromiser that he is He gives an answer To their dilemma, right? He says we're gonna kill him He's gonna be our scapegoat He will die So that the nation won't we're gonna murder Jesus So that the romans don't come along and murder us Jesus is going to be our substitute That's essentially what Caiaphas is saying So in verse 53 then from that day on they plotted to put him to death. This was the council's decision and soon Putting jesus to death They didn't ensure their safety. In fact, they ensured their destruction You cannot stand in opposition to god You here today if you've not given all of your heart all of your soul all of your mind All of your strength the following christ you can't stand in opposition to god He will be victorious bow your knee Confess him as lord to the glory of god the father and live for him Here in john chapter 11 verses 51 and 52 John explains here. There's much more to Caiaphas's statement. He didn't say this of his own accord He prophesied in other words. He revealed a word from god When this wicked man communicated his wicked solution God at the same time communicates the greatest solution to the problem of man Caiaphas's words brought about the death of the lord jesus christ The decision of the council brought about the death of the lord jesus christ But it was just as god from the beginning had intended it Peter says it this way in acts chapter 2 and verse 23 him Being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of god You have taken by lawless hands have crucified and put to death God didn't merely turn a horrible situation good. God was there from eternity past For loving his own even to death death of the cross Decreying their deliverance through his own victory over sin and sinful men for his glory and their good Now this is what god said.  We esteemed him stricken He was smitten by god and afflicted He was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised For our iniquities the chastisement for our peace was upon him and by his stripes We are healed all we like sheep have gone astray Every one of us have turned to his own way and the lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all He was oppressed He was afflicted yet. He opened not his mouth He was led away as a lamb to the slaughter And as a sheep before its shears is silent. He opened not his mouth He was taken from prison and from judgment And who will declare his generation for he was cut off from the land of the living For the transgressions of my people god says he was stricken And they made his grave with the wicked but with the rich at his death because he had done no violence Nor was any deceit in his mouth Listen to this Yet it pleased the lord to bruise him and to put him to grief When you make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed He shall prolong his days and the pleasure of the lord shall prosper in his hand He shall see the labor of his soul and be satisfied by his knowledge My righteous servant shall justify many For he shall bear their iniquities Therefore I will divide him a portion with the great He shall divide the spoil with the strong because he poured out his soul unto death And he was numbered with the transgressors and he bore the sin of many and made intercession for the transgressors According to the predetermined an Unassailable and unassailable plan of Almighty God Jesus Christ is ordained to die for the ungodly It's substitution It's a vicarious death because Jesus Christ dies in the place of sinners In their place and for their benefit. We describe his death as sacrificial Because he bears our punishment It's by his stripes that we are healed What an indictment it is against our own hearts that we don't take our sin more seriously right Let's make our point here from this Nothing stops God He who gave up his only son Is anything going to stop God? Nothing stays his hand. He accomplishes all his good pleasure He is victorious in the salvation of his people these wicked men didn't stop him We wicked men didn't stop him One commentator said this Jesus offered himself as a sacrifice in our stead Bearing our sin in his own body on the tree. He suffered not only awful physical anguish But he also suffered the unthinkable spiritual horror of becoming identified with a sin to which he was infinitely opposed He thereby came under the curse of sin so that for a time even his perfect fellowship with his father was broken Thus God proclaimed his infinite abhorrence of sin by being willing himself to suffer all that In the place of the guilty ones in order that he might justly forgive Thus the love of God found its perfect fulfillment because he did not hold back from even that utmost sacrifice in order that we might be saved from eternal death through what he endured He is victorious He goes out and conquers To save his people through victory through triumph praise god, right?  No God's victory is god's victory dependent upon human choice No god triumphs god Conquers look at verse 52 He died Not for that nation only but also that he would gather it together in one The Children of god who were scattered abroad He died so that one day in fulfillment of god's promise Like romans 11 chapter chapter 11 verse 26 says so all israel will be saved as it is written The deliverer will come out of zion and he will turn away on godliness from jacob But also the lord jesus christ in his substitutionary vicarious sacrificial death Gathers together in one who? everyone No, he gathers together the children of god now from the gospel of john so far Who do we understand these children to be? Who are the children of god? Well all those in john chapter 1 verse 13 who were born not of blood Nor the will of flesh nor the will of man, but of god All those who in john chapter 3 verse 3 who have been born again by the spirit of god Brought to saving faith after the regenerating work of the spirit of god making them alive from the dead in christ The children of god include all those in john chapter 6 verse 44 who have been drawn by the father They include all those in john chapter 6 verse 65 to whom it has been granted to come to the father From john chapter 10 verse 16. These are those for whom christ died that include other sheep that are not of this fold israel all those that god has collectively Elected and drawn to himself whose names are written in the lambs book of life from before the foundation of the world Written there by god who didn't merely look down the corridor of time and react to what he saw there But they were written there by god who wrote history and ordains all things that come to pass for his victorious glory You see how our minimism They see how that theology undermines the glory of god in his victory In accomplishing salvation for his people god is victorious in salvation It is a victory that will not be denied and is not undermined or thwarted or changed by human choice Now what does that tell us? one Be strong and courageous in christ Be strong against sin god has said our conquering victorious god. God has said it will not have dominion over you Be courageous and bold in difficulty god is not simply turning a bad circumstance around for good god is there from the beginning in that Circumstancing in that circumstance ordaining it for good In evangelism be bold be very courageous be strong It is god who accomplishes all things that pertain to his good pleasure Including the salvation of that sinner you're standing in front of Be bold for christ Our confidence in christ considering that god Conquers that god is victorious in all things our confidence in christ should be through the roof Is he going to conquer your sin if you're in christ? Yes Now turn from your sin and get to work Is he going to be victorious over your flesh?  We must by importunate prayer Opportunistic prayer if you will Call him to our conflict for like the greeks without achilles We are soon overcome by our enemies and we are but dead men if jesus be not in our midst But why if you claim christ and our god conquers and reigns and is victorious? Why would you do anything apart from him? Yet we do that all the time. No, we were so weak in our flesh. We're so forgetful We don't trust him. We don't depend upon his strength Corey 10 boom said look at the world. You'll be distressed Look within you'll be depressed Look to christ and you'll be at rest From romans 8 beginning in verse 37 yet in all these things. We are more than Conquerors through him who loved us. 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 And the victory of god and the grace of god, which is in christ jesus our lord Love christ more. He didn't merely offer you salvation.  He's victorious in salvation Lastly, he's victorious in his time In his timing in his perfect timing verse 53 From that day on they plotted to put him to death Therefore jesus no longer walked openly among the jews But he went from there into the country near the wilderness to a city called effrium there. He remained with his disciples Jesus knows how hostile they've become but his hour has not yet come So he leaves for effrium near the wilderness verse 55 the Passover of the jews was near And many went from the country up to jerusalem before the Passover to purify themselves The Passover here Is when jesus is finally taken and crucified. It's just a short time away We're nearing his death Now the people were gathering together for Passover and they were Purifying themselves. It was a ritual purification that took place before the celebration of Passover And think about it. They're purifying themselves before the greatest defilement imaginable The crucifixion of the lord jesus christ messianic expectations are high and because of that everybody knows about jesus His name is going out people know about jesus. And so because messianic expectations are high He's on their thoughts. He's on their lips as they talk about him. So in verse 56 They sought jesus they spoke among themselves as they stood in the temple. What do you think? You think you won't come to the feast Verse 57 now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command that if anyone knew where he was He should report it They might seize him all of this pointing forward to the greatest triumph of all at the cross of the lord jesus christ We're gonna get there and the scripture is glorious right the lord jesus christ glorious in his victory Glorious in his triumph glorious in his judgment over his enemies But glorious right in the salvation of his people I'd submit to you that is a full and glorious and triumphant and conquering salvation So live boldly for christ. Amen. Amen. Let's pray father in heaven We're so grateful that you have conquered because we can't So grateful god You've made provision for our sin because we are sinners Hopeless and destitute apart from you god. We praise you for your victory over sin and your victory over the grave We praise you for your victory and bringing salvation to your people And we praise you and thank you lord that you are a conquering god and the lord jesus christ goes out to conquer We praise you god for this glorious salvation. I pray god in light of that Astounding reality that there would be no one here that would Keep themselves in the fools way of denying that victory and rejecting christ to live for themselves I pray god that you would save them that you would conquer their rebellion and conquer their will You would reveal to them their sin That you would save them Show yourselves might show yourself mighty In their eyes Hollow yourself in their eyes Glorify yourself god and their salvation We praise you god for your grace and your mercy in these things I pray god for your people god that you would conquer every vestige of sin and rebellion Conquer that wicked indifference and apathy that seems to rot and stink in our hearts God I pray that you would conquer the flesh You would Drag us out of our sin. Yeah conquer our selfish desires and our selfish motives and our Selfish lusts For your namesake god God I pray that you would conquer our laziness and conquer our apathy For your glory god I pray that by the strength that your spirit supplies god that through that strength We would put our sail into the wind God and that you would fill it with the means of grace and blow our boat toward glory And praise you and thank you lord for your goodness in this Praise you and thank you for christ god and we pray for your glory to be In all the earth as waters cover the sea
