Final Charge: Take up Your Cross

Father in heaven, we are before you at such an early hour.

For some this is not an early hour and for some this is a very early hour.

But Father we want to calibrate our minds and our hearts towards you, towards spiritual things, towards heaven.

And that, Lord, we can't do by ourselves.

So Father, we ask for grace to cover, to pardon, to forgive.

And Lord, we ask for grace to empower, to change, and to sanctify.

Bless the speaker, bless those who are in hearing of this message, bless the recordings, the technology.

We pray that you be glorified in you and we pray in Jesus' name, Amen.

In 2012, March 9, researchers from the University of Glasgow observed 4 groups of solar flare loops that contracted rapidly during a flare.

The loops had a staggered start to their collapse, showing delays of 60 to 80 seconds from the inner to the outer loops.

This event, which was recorded on video by the way, is a great example of quote simultaneous implosion and explosion.

Energy is transferred from the magnetic field to power the flare, leaving a pocket of reduced magnetic support that causes an implosion.

The staggering between the loop contractions is caused by the time delay needed for the information about the loss of support to travel outwards.

The loop contractions are triggered at the same time as the flare begins, emitting intense X-rays and microwaves.

3 outer loops show clear oscillations even as they contract with distinct periods and phases.

After being compressed by the collapsing loops, the flaring loops oscillate until they find a new equilibrium as indicated by the X-ray emission from the hot plasma.

During the contraction, a wave blast revealed by the extreme ultraviolet radiation spreads away from the source of the flare.

I do not understand anything I just read.

All I know is that they recorded something bright in the sky.

But it was a phenomenon where as something was exploding, it was also imploding simultaneously recorded on video This was found on the surface of the Sun and as the word says implosion something going in explosion something going out is happening at the same time, and you don't find this phenomenon commonly throughout nature.

The greatest simultaneous explosion-implosion in the universe, I submit to you this morning, is found not on the surface of the Sun but in Psalms chapter 85.

So if you have your Bibles, not if, not if, this is GYC, amen?

You should have your Bibles if it's in print better, if it's in digital that's okay.

You are making the sermon way too long for some people.

Okay, that was just the introduction, you understand.

If you're still looking for it, hurry up.

Psalms is the- is the largest book in the Bible.

It should be after 84, if you're from some civilization with numerical digits.

Quickly, quickly, quickly, quickly, quickly.

The Bible says, the Bible says, Lord, Thou hast been favorable unto Thy land, Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

You have forgiven the iniquity of Thy people, You have covered all their sins, sayeth Allah.

Thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger." Verse 4.

Now, verses 1 through 3 is on the past tense.

Now we see a transition into the present tense, and it is now a prayer request.

"'Turn us, O God, of our salvation, and cause your anger toward us to cease.

Verse 5, wilt thou be angry with us forever?

Wilt thou draw out thy anger to all generations?

Wilt thou not revive us again that thy people may rejoice in thee?

Verse 7, Show us thy mercy, O Lord, grant us thy salvation.

1 key to Bible study is to look for words or for meanings of repetition in a particular passage.

You can do that, and these words are not the words of and, and the, and thy, but conceptual words.

And the word that's repeated here, the word that is repeated here in this passage in verse 3, verse 3, 4, 5, and 6.

Verse 3, the Bible says, Thou hast taken away all thy wrath, thine anger.

What is the phrase or the concept that's being repeated over and over again?

And this is concept of anger This passage is talking about the anger of God the wrath of God and before you freak out before you freak out These are verses and this is a concept that many people don't like to talk about, and you don't hear this kind of preaching anymore.

Or if you hear this kind of preaching, it's kind of in this weird Baptist sense that God is holding us above the hellfire, that it is His mercy that's about He's angry with us.

Anger, in this sense, is not human anger, amen?

Now some of you, you know that intellectually, but we need to understand that when God is talking about anger, this is divine anger.

There is no illustration here on earth that is commensurate with the anger of God.

Your fathers do things that are illegal in North America, Yes?

Some of us, we have this concept of anger that we get from our parents.

Divine anger is a divine property of God, if you will.

And I don't like to say that in that sense, it makes it sound like we're studying an object and this is the property, but it is an attribute.

Some of you have had bad experiences with people, bad experiences with anger.

Maybe you have an anger problem yourself.

This word anger or word for wrath, another word for it is justice.

And so every time you see the wrath of God, the anger of God, you can take that word out and replace it with justice or just or righteousness.
