100:00:00,760 –> 00:00:08,260When we’re in trouble we turn away from folks who don’t know what it’s about. We200:00:08,260 –> 00:00:14,880turn towards people who’ve been there. When you’re tempted, do you feel that you300:00:14,880 –> 00:00:21,080could come to Jesus and you could say you know what it’s like? When you’re400:00:21,080 –> 00:00:27,600afraid, do you feel that you could come to Jesus and you could say, you’ve been500:00:27,660 –> 00:00:33,680here too. A great test of whether you have really understood the humanity of Jesus600:00:33,680 –> 00:00:38,860is do you turn to him. Welcome to open the Bible with Pastor Colin Smith I’m700:00:38,860 –> 00:00:42,720David Pick and Colin, we can all identify with that I think when we’re going800:00:42,720 –> 00:00:46,799through a painful time, we want to turn to someone who’s been there too. Someone900:00:46,799 –> 00:00:50,400who can relate to what we’re experiencing, so it’s important to1000:00:50,400 –> 00:00:54,720understand that Jesus identifies with us in that pain. Yeah, that’s right we’ve1100:00:54,740 –> 00:00:58,820been thinking about the marvellous truth that Jesus is God, that he is the1200:00:58,820 –> 00:01:02,599sovereign Lord of the universe but we’re thinking today about this wonderful1300:01:02,599 –> 00:01:08,279truth that he really has entered into human experience that God became a man1400:01:08,279 –> 00:01:13,099in Christ Jesus and that means that our Savior really knows what it is to be1500:01:13,099 –> 00:01:18,260troubled, to be in anguish, he knows what it is to be distressed, he knows what it1600:01:18,260 –> 00:01:22,559is to experience sorrow, so when we experience these things he’s a Saviour1700:01:22,699 –> 00:01:26,900to whom we can come, he’s not remote from us he’s not a long way away, we don’t1800:01:26,900 –> 00:01:31,779need to speak to some other person who understands us better than he does, he1900:01:31,779 –> 00:01:37,180has entered into this life so that we are able to come to him and find in him2000:01:37,180 –> 00:01:41,720a merciful saviour. That’s what we’re going to hear about in today’s broadcast2100:01:41,720 –> 00:01:46,720so join us if you can in Romans chapter 1 as we begin the message he understands2200:01:46,720 –> 00:01:52,059you, here’s Colin. We saw last time if you were here that these verses are about2300:01:52,860 –> 00:02:00,239of God which is regarding God son who is Jesus Christ our Lord, and we saw that2400:02:00,239 –> 00:02:04,779Jesus is able to save us precisely because he is Lord. A Savior who isn’t2500:02:04,779 –> 00:02:11,100Lord is of no use to us whatsoever. The good news is that a savior has been born2600:02:11,100 –> 00:02:17,500to you and he is Christ the Lord. Now Paul has more to say regarding God’s2700:02:18,220 –> 00:02:25,539son and today we’re going to focus on the humanity of our Lord and Savior Jesus2800:02:25,539 –> 00:02:29,179Christ and I hope you have it open in front of you Paul speaks about the2900:02:29,179 –> 00:02:40,520gospel of God Romans 1, regarding his son, verse 3. who as to his human nature his3000:02:40,520 –> 00:02:52,479human nature was a descendant of David. Now why is this here? Paul says, he’s3100:02:52,479 –> 00:03:01,839talking about grand things. Jesus Christ is God’s Son. He is our Lord as we’ll be3200:03:01,839 –> 00:03:07,940considering next weekend together triumphantly he has risen from the dead.3300:03:08,779 –> 00:03:17,119So why, why, why does Paul add here as to his human nature he was a descendant from3400:03:17,119 –> 00:03:22,279David. I was reading an ancient sermon by John Chrysostom, one of the fathers of3500:03:22,279 –> 00:03:26,240the Church. And I love the way he puts this. John Chrysostom says, as if he was3600:03:26,240 –> 00:03:33,339talking to the Apostle Paul, why O Paul, after lifting up our souls and speaking3700:03:33,479 –> 00:03:38,899of the Gospel of God and bringing in the chorus of the prophets, why do you bring3800:03:38,899 –> 00:03:44,899us down to David? I like that. Why when you’re speaking about God’s Son and our3900:03:44,899 –> 00:03:52,820Lord and the resurrection, why would you bring us down to such an earthy thing4000:03:52,820 –> 00:04:00,580as he was descended with regards to his human nature from king David. Well,4100:04:00,619 –> 00:04:05,419here’s the answer. The answer is that he brings in David4200:04:05,419 –> 00:04:12,539here because the Savior, who is Lord, is good news precisely because he belongs4300:04:12,539 –> 00:04:23,720to us. He’s ours. See, when you hear that Jesus is the Son of God, and when next4400:04:23,720 –> 00:04:29,760weekend we’re hearing together that he’s risen from the dead, maybe you will find4500:04:29,760 –> 00:04:33,540yourself asking this question, yes well it all sounds very grand, but what in the4600:04:33,540 –> 00:04:38,880world does it have to do with me? What difference does this great truth about4700:04:38,880 –> 00:04:42,299Jesus being God’s son, and Jesus being risen from the dead, and all the singing4800:04:42,299 –> 00:04:47,459that goes on at Easter, what difference does it actually make to my life? That’s4900:04:47,459 –> 00:04:54,239the question. And I want us to see today, as we prepare for Easter, that the good5000:04:54,440 –> 00:05:02,420of God’s Son is for you. For every human person. Now here’s the doctrine that5100:05:02,420 –> 00:05:06,140Paul is explaining to us. We’ll try and grasp it together, then we’ll see how5200:05:06,140 –> 00:05:11,380important it is as we imply it to our lives. This great truth that the Son of5300:05:11,380 –> 00:05:19,660God became a man. Now remember that God has always existed in three persons, the5400:05:20,440 –> 00:05:25,200Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, right at the very beginning of the Bible. You5500:05:25,200 –> 00:05:29,440just read the first verses. This becomes evident that this is being pointed to. In5600:05:29,440 –> 00:05:34,079the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth, and the Spirit of God5700:05:34,079 –> 00:05:41,279brooded over the waters, and God said, God spoke, the word of God proceeded from5800:05:41,279 –> 00:05:46,040the mouth of the Father. Genesis chapter 1 in verse 26. The very first chapter of5900:05:46,179 –> 00:05:54,640the Bible, God says let us, plural, let us make man in our image. There is one God6000:05:54,640 –> 00:06:02,959who has always, eternally existed in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the6100:06:02,959 –> 00:06:09,100Holy Spirit. This is the most marvelous truth for many reasons, and here’s one of6200:06:09,100 –> 00:06:15,040them that we should always remember. Before anything ever existed, before the6300:06:15,160 –> 00:06:22,480creation of the world, love flowed between the Father and the Son and the6400:06:22,480 –> 00:06:29,000Holy Spirit. In fact, the universe is created out of an overflow of the love6500:06:29,000 –> 00:06:34,440that has always and always will flow between the Father and the Son and the6600:06:34,440 –> 00:06:42,700Holy Spirit. Listen, if life evolved only by random chance, if life evolved only by6700:06:42,739 –> 00:06:48,359random chance on the basis of the survival of the fittest, then love could6800:06:48,359 –> 00:06:54,500be nothing other than enlightened self-interest. To say, I love you if it’s6900:06:54,500 –> 00:07:00,359just the survival of the fittest could only mean I need you or I want you or7000:07:00,359 –> 00:07:06,100I’m trying to get one over on you, that’s all it could mean. So I am so glad that7100:07:06,100 –> 00:07:11,299the world and everything in it has not evolved by random chance by the7200:07:11,339 –> 00:07:18,019survival of the fittest but is created by the Triune God so that it flows out7300:07:18,019 –> 00:07:26,540of the eternal love that has always been between the Father and the Son and the7400:07:26,540 –> 00:07:36,640Holy Spirit who said let us, the God who is love, let us make man in our image.7500:07:36,880 –> 00:07:39,980See the life-changing significance of that?7600:07:39,980 –> 00:07:45,940Where else would love come from? God has always been three persons, the7700:07:45,940 –> 00:07:49,940Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit but here’s the great truth at the very7800:07:49,940 –> 00:07:55,500centre of the Bible. That at one point in human history, now more than 2,0007900:07:55,500 –> 00:08:01,779years ago, the second person of the Trinity, God the Son, did something8000:08:01,779 –> 00:08:11,359completely new. Something happened to Him. The Son of God became a man. And the8100:08:11,359 –> 00:08:20,640Bible describes this in different ways. Philippians 2, Being in very nature God,8200:08:20,640 –> 00:08:26,540He made Himself nothing taking on the form of the servant. That is what8300:08:27,299 –> 00:08:33,299did. Or to put it in another way, John chapter 1, The Word the word that8400:08:33,299 –> 00:08:39,099proceeds from the Father, the second person of the Trinity became flesh and8500:08:39,099 –> 00:08:43,500lived among us. Or as Paul puts it in Corinthians, though8600:08:43,500 –> 00:08:50,500he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor. That’s what the Son of God, God the8700:08:50,500 –> 00:08:55,340Son, the second person of the Trinity did. But remember this, that God the Father8800:08:55,580 –> 00:09:00,380was involved in this as much as God the Son. How was the Father involved? The8900:09:00,380 –> 00:09:08,719Father gave the Son. God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son9000:09:08,719 –> 00:09:13,219that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life. The9100:09:13,219 –> 00:09:19,179Father sends the Son. Galatians 4, for when the time was fully come God sent9200:09:19,219 –> 00:09:25,580his son to be born of a woman. And, of course, as the Son of God is involved9300:09:25,580 –> 00:09:29,700humbling himself and taking the form of a servant, and as the Father is involved9400:09:29,700 –> 00:09:36,419giving the Son and sending the Son a holy Spirit is involved as much as the9500:09:36,419 –> 00:09:43,440Father and the Son. Remember the words of the Angel Gabriel to Mary, The Holy9600:09:43,440 –> 00:09:50,539Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you, so9700:09:50,539 –> 00:09:58,520the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.’ So here is this central9800:09:58,520 –> 00:10:03,979mystery of the incarnation, the enfleshing of the Son of God, the9900:10:03,979 –> 00:10:10,400eternal Word of God took human flesh and was born of the Virgin Mary. The Son of10000:10:10,479 –> 00:10:19,940God became a man, he left heaven, he came, he was born10100:10:19,940 –> 00:10:24,140and he did this folks, for us.10200:10:25,440 –> 00:10:28,820You’re listening to Open The Bible with Pastor Colin Smith and a message called10300:10:28,820 –> 00:10:34,599He Understands You.

Back to the message now we’re in10900:10:58,280 –> 00:11:01,440Romans in chapter 1 here’s Colin.11000:11:01,440 –> 00:11:04,039Now I want us to think then about the human11100:11:04,599 –> 00:11:09,099nature of the Son of God you see that phrase in Romans chapter 1 and verse 311200:11:09,099 –> 00:11:16,559who as to his human nature was descended from David. He is God he is11300:11:16,559 –> 00:11:24,820man and Paul says as to his human nature he is descended from David. Now you may11400:11:24,820 –> 00:11:31,919think that the humanity of the Son of God is a truth that you know well and11500:11:32,299 –> 00:11:41,179need to hear more about today. But here’s the test as to how much you have grasped11600:11:41,179 –> 00:11:48,940this great truth. Are you ready for the test? Here’s the test as to how much you11700:11:48,940 –> 00:11:57,559have grasped this great truth that we think we know. Do you pray?11800:11:57,599 –> 00:12:10,000That’s the test. When you pray, do you think that the Son of God really11900:12:10,000 –> 00:12:14,559understands what is going on in your life?12000:12:14,780 –> 00:12:22,400Do you think he gets it? Do you think he knows where you’re coming from? That’s12100:12:22,760 –> 00:12:28,200the test. See the reality is that when we’re in trouble12200:12:28,200 –> 00:12:33,059we turn away from folks who don’t know what it’s about. We turn towards people12300:12:33,059 –> 00:12:41,880who’ve been there. When you’re tempted, do you feel that you could come to Jesus12400:12:41,880 –> 00:12:51,200and you could say, you know what it’s like? When you’re afraid, do you feel that12500:12:51,260 –> 00:12:55,979you could come to Jesus and you could say you’ve been here too?12600:12:55,979 –> 00:13:03,099A great test of whether you have really understood the humanity of Jesus is12700:13:03,099 –> 00:13:09,419do you turn to him? Do you see him as someone who understands what you are12800:13:09,419 –> 00:13:13,900going through and knows what it is really like? Now this is the teaching of12900:13:13,900 –> 00:13:18,460Hebrews chapter 4 and verse 15. I’m not just making this up. This really is the13000:13:19,119 –> 00:13:22,179Hebrews chapter 4 and verse 15 says this13100:13:35,219 –> 00:13:42,140Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive13200:13:42,140 –> 00:13:45,539mercy and find grace to help us in time of need. You see the connection he’s13300:13:45,880 –> 00:13:50,559If you understand that the Lord Jesus Christ has been through it in13400:13:50,559 –> 00:13:57,760every way that you are, then you will come to him with confidence. If you don’t13500:13:57,760 –> 00:14:01,520understand the humanity of Christ you’ll think other people understand you more13600:14:01,520 –> 00:14:09,260than Jesus. That’s how important this doctrine is, and the reason that we’re13700:14:09,260 –> 00:14:13,140spending this weekend on it together is simply this that when you grasp the13800:14:13,140 –> 00:14:21,840humanity of the Son of God, when you really get it, you will come to Him. You13900:14:21,840 –> 00:14:25,659will feel a freedom and a drawing to come to him in the hardest, most14000:14:25,659 –> 00:14:31,020difficult moments of your life, in your greatest failure, and you will receive14100:14:31,020 –> 00:14:39,119help from him. So I want us then to strengthen our grasp with this important14200:14:39,119 –> 00:14:42,619truth, the humanity of the Lord Jesus Christ. I wanted you to know why14300:14:42,619 –> 00:14:50,320right up front. The humanity of Jesus means first that the Lord Jesus Christ14400:14:50,320 –> 00:14:56,179had a human body. Let’s just think about this for a few moments together. I’ve14500:14:56,179 –> 00:15:00,359been helped in this last week, as often before, by reading Professor Donald14600:15:00,359 –> 00:15:06,820McLeod writing on this subject. He has a very wonderful gift for fresh language14700:15:06,820 –> 00:15:12,500and so I’m going to be quoting him several times today. Here’s one thing he14800:15:12,500 –> 00:15:21,200says God’s Son took a human body which had the same biochemical composition as14900:15:21,200 –> 00:15:29,739our own exactly the same anatomy and physiology the same central nervous15000:15:29,739 –> 00:15:37,820system and the same sensitivity to pain. The enfleshing of the Son of God means15100:15:38,140 –> 00:15:52,099that He had touchable visible woundable flesh just like you and me it was very15200:15:52,099 –> 00:15:56,059interesting that the first serious heresy in the history of the church the15300:15:56,059 –> 00:16:01,299first serious heresy ever to come up was not denying that Jesus is God was the15400:16:01,299 –> 00:16:05,799opposite it was denying that Jesus was man did you know that it was called15500:16:06,099 –> 00:16:13,520and the the dossetists found the idea that the Son of God had a human body to15600:16:13,520 –> 00:16:19,580be quite repulsive I mean think of all the mass that that involves it just kind15700:16:19,580 –> 00:16:26,239of offended them they would think like this how could God himself stoop down to15800:16:26,239 –> 00:16:34,140get bound up with something as basic and earthy and embarrassing as a human body15900:16:34,380 –> 00:16:40,599I mean think about it nails that need to be clipped and then knows that needs to16000:16:40,599 –> 00:16:50,460be blown and hear that you know gets out of whack, could God take a human body?16100:16:50,460 –> 00:16:58,039Dossetist said the idea that for God to be bound up with all that stuff was16200:16:58,039 –> 00:17:04,079just too gross to be contemplated and so the dossetist said well he must16300:17:04,099 –> 00:17:07,780have had a body that kind of look like ours but it only appeared like ours, couldn’t16400:17:07,780 –> 00:17:13,699really have been a human body and so you find in the New Testament the apostle16500:17:13,699 –> 00:17:17,839John writing these words, I’m quoting from 1 John 4 in verse 316600:17:17,839 –> 00:17:24,000this is how you recognize the spirit of God, it’s that big an issue every spirit16700:17:24,000 –> 00:17:29,880that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, and any16800:17:29,920 –> 00:17:33,939spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God, the humanity of Jesus16900:17:33,939 –> 00:17:39,180mattered that much to the Apostles and it should matter to us, Christ came in17000:17:39,180 –> 00:17:44,219the flesh, he had a human body like yours like mine, it was physical, it was17100:17:44,219 –> 00:17:52,020touchable it was woundable flesh, but human nature of course involves more17200:17:52,020 –> 00:17:56,160than a body you’re more than a body aren’t you, what else are you beyond a17300:17:56,160 –> 00:18:02,699body a body and a soul, so for Christ to take human nature meant not only that17400:18:02,699 –> 00:18:07,619Jesus had a human body but the Jesus had a human soul which of course involves17500:18:07,619 –> 00:18:11,920the mind, it involves the heart, it involves thinking and feeling and17600:18:11,920 –> 00:18:18,380relationship, think about the humanity of Jesus, what the Scriptures tell us, Luke17700:18:18,380 –> 00:18:24,479tells us for example chapter 2 in verse 52 that Jesus grew in Wisdom, he grew in17800:18:24,479 –> 00:18:29,380wisdom. How do you think he knew all the Scriptures from the Old Testament? Listen17900:18:29,380 –> 00:18:38,380kids, listen up, when you learn and study, when you memorize verses in Iowana you18000:18:38,380 –> 00:18:44,959know what Jesus did it exactly the same way, no shortcuts for him. When you take18100:18:44,959 –> 00:18:50,939notes, when you kneel down to pray, the Lord Jesus Christ did these things in18200:18:51,060 –> 00:18:58,140exactly the same way. He learned like we do. He prayed like we do. He was tempted18300:18:58,140 –> 00:19:03,680like we are. Listen, he formed friendships like we do. He had places that he liked18400:19:03,680 –> 00:19:08,099to go, where he was able to relax more than others. The home of Martha and Mary18500:19:08,099 –> 00:19:12,619and Lazarus was obviously one of these. When he chose his disciples the first18600:19:12,619 –> 00:19:18,739reason that he chose his disciples, was what? That they should be with him. When18700:19:18,939 –> 00:19:24,579children came to him, immediately connected with them. You read some of the18800:19:24,579 –> 00:19:28,380words that are right there in the scriptures that speak to us about the18900:19:28,380 –> 00:19:32,619real humanity of Christ, I just wrote down a few of them because we skip over19000:19:32,619 –> 00:19:41,140them. The Lord Jesus was troubled. John chapter 11 verse 33 and other places. He19100:19:41,140 –> 00:19:53,260was in anguish in anguish. Luke 22 in verse 44, He was deeply distressed. Mark19200:19:53,260 –> 00:19:58,900chapter 14 in verse 23, he was overwhelmed with sorrow. Mark Chapter 1419300:19:58,900 –> 00:20:10,040and verse 34. So Jesus had a human body. The Lord Jesus had a human soul. The Lord19400:20:10,160 –> 00:20:17,839Jesus Christ knows more about your life experience than your best friend or your19500:20:17,839 –> 00:20:22,880counselor or any pastor ever could.19600:20:22,880 –> 00:20:29,839The Lord Jesus Christ knows more about your experience of life than his mother19700:20:29,839 –> 00:20:38,420Mary ever could. Think about this why is it that Mary has assumed such importance19800:20:38,500 –> 00:20:45,540in large parts of the church throughout the centuries? I’ll tell you, because many19900:20:45,540 –> 00:20:50,359people feel that Jesus Christ is so far away from them and they’re looking for20000:20:50,359 –> 00:20:57,380someone nearer. I’m telling you on the basis of the humanity of the Lord Jesus20100:20:57,380 –> 00:21:03,339Christ, that Jesus Christ knows more about your life than his mother or any20200:21:03,339 –> 00:21:12,219other person ever could and when you see that you’ll want to come to him. That’s20300:21:12,219 –> 00:21:16,000how important the humanity of Jesus is. It’s what we were learning from Hebrews20400:21:16,000 –> 00:21:22,579in chapter 4 in verse 15. Very helpful insight today about what it means for20500:21:22,579 –> 00:21:27,699Jesus to be fully human, to have a human body, a human soul and next time we’ll20600:21:27,699 –> 00:21:32,699hear about how Jesus knows human life.
