Sermon Transcript Tone Analysis

I i two in my own calling, with, with Dad to go into ministry as a kid, a teenager.

And I felt God was telling me that I should go into Ministry that I said, sure.

But not use minutes if I don't like teenagers.

As an eighth-grader.

I told God that and he's okay.

Anyway, don't tell God, no doesn't work right this morning and so he is at home and hopefully watching online.

And so I get to step up and fill in which is a lot of fun.

As I love preaching, as we look at.

Here we go, past weekend.

At, at my house.

We had this high schooler the middle schoolers over and we watch a movie called back to the future, but you are probably familiar with and see, what does, what is the director said?

What did the movie trailers?

Say about what the problem of evil is who people are, what solution was the good life?

What are the components within movies and Stephanie?

What movies has updated house stories in good stories, and it's pointing us back to the greater story.

I'm reading books all the time right now.

I'm going through Lord of the Rings for the second time.

First time was in Middle School when I forced myself because everyone I respected said, you need to reload the Rings and so I read it and it was miserable.

And so I said that was terrible and I'm not going back to him.

And now here I am as I'm reading stories and just thinking about their characters and there's something we would do with characters and stories and it's that we identify with them and sometimes you don't realize that's what we're doing until maybe you've had the experience for you.

Watching a TV show or movie.

And there's this a boyfriend and girlfriend that dated and then they break up and your heart is just not like crap.

I don't want to watch a movie anymore.

I don't know how to show it.

Is babe.

Ruined it because There was something we identified within, in the show scripture to, and sometimes you realize that sometimes we don't, and there's lots of people in scripture, we could identify with some people us with the disciples and some with the Pharisees, some Moses, or James or Thomas, or David, or Caesar, our Pilots are there.

So many different people and scripture that you could find reasons to identify, whether what I've noticed is that throughout people's lives.

They tend to have one or two or three people.

That kind of is a common theme throughout their life.

Something comes down to personality and how we're wired.

There's some really cool websites out there about the Enneagram or Myers-Briggs.

And it's, and then there's websites that say, okay, if you hear this type of Personality, there's these other characters in Scripture that are similar to that in the end.

And when he realized I hate, I can I can identify with Ruth.

You go back and read Ruth and it'll be read in a new light because you're saying you're connecting this way.

It's just interesting how a hipster can come to life in so many ways.

And why is a story, please don't hear me singing.

Like, made up, I'm saying storage, is this narrative is estella's, here's what happened and it's so much fun to look at.

And so one of these people that we look at and I can identify with is Peter and so I was want to look at Peter for a little bit who, who is Peter.

What's he like?

He had a build a personality profile for Peter.

What would you describe him as the man who calls himself a witness of the suffering of Christ in 1st?

Peter 5 was not there.

When Jesus was hanging on the cross.

He was hiding in fear.

The man who has caused us to be eager to serve remain seated while Jesus washes, disciples feet, the man who tells us that we should be clear minded and self-control so that we can pray fell asleep.

When Jesus was sweating blood, the man who is so boldly telling us submit yourselves for the Lord's sake.

That every human authority laughed off.

The soldier, male gets his ear in the garden.

None of this is meant to demean theater.

The point is that it gives us hope this man, Peter who he's impulsive and immature, he grows up to be a leader in the church.

The people you read about in the four gospels became the Peter Iredale tax and in a theater, the right?

The two Epistles and it took effort and time and At the same time the Holy Spirit Works in his life and transforms him.

And there's activity, activity the holy spirit in his life and we can learn from all this racket Peter and just kind of broad Strokes.

Who is he?

Well, he's comically impulsive twice.

He jumped out of a boat fully clothed.

He challenges Jesus.

He spoke speaks out of turn and at times he demonstrates more energy, and creativity than was appropriate.

And that that very energy and creativity that underlines, the second impression of Peter, that we have it in that that he's The Unofficial leader of the disciples.

He often served as their spokesperson.

He was one of the three disciples in Jesus's Inner Circle.

Like, when he heard the questions he he thought answer.

Do it when he observes problem.

He thinks solution Wentz.

When he also demonstrates things, like when he hears silence, he needs to talk and when there's disagreement.

He likes to challenge these different personality things in Scripture that we can see.

And this is the guy that Jesus calls and says, you are the rock star with John the Baptist, which might be a weird place to start, but this is really crucial for understanding who Peter is until turn your bibles are going through a ton of scripture today.

So you don't want to have your Bible out and I normally discourage and kind of got distracted with notifications on my phone.

When I use my phone for a Bible for this one, because of the fast switching, that might be helpful.

But either way, open your Bible.

I want you to see that.

I'm not making this up button and Luke 3:15 is where we're starting for now.

Says, now the people who were waiting expectantly and all of them were questioned in their hearts, whether John might be the Messiah and John answered them all.

So, I baptize you with water, but the one who is more powerful than I am, is coming.

I'm not worthy to untie the strap of his sandals.

He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

His winnowing shuttle is in his hand, to clear the threshing floor and gather, wheat into his barn, but he will burn with the fire that never goes out.

Then along with many other after tations, he proclaimed, good news of the people, but when John rebuked Herod the tetrarch and because of her OT has his brother's wife.

There is some weird marriage stuff, cut hair design, and dip paired.

Added this to everything else and he locked up John in prison.

John, the Baptist was the opening voice.

Proclaiming that Jesus was coming in that he's here.

He declares that there's one, who's more powerful who will baptize with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

He's going to clear the threshing floor.

He's going to gather the wheat and burn the chaff.

And it's word Messiah comes up.

And then when we think Messiah, we've been in church.

We know it's Jesus, but Messiah it.

It's the anointed one is the Old Testament is to be able to reference to any ruling King.

Cyrus the Persian king could be yahweh's, anointed in Isaiah, 45, and seas.

Agent to deliver Israel.

From Babylonian captivity and live it against the terms.

Used to anoint, the high priest, and Elijah, and Elisha, and 1st Kings 19.

The idea of Messiah is something that is not new.

But if people are listening to John, if thinking who's this, Messiah going to be?

And then it comes Jesus and I think about who is the Christ that Peter was a seeking Peter and the general Jewish population.

They were eagerly seeking.

This lawyer came, they knew about Messiah.

They knew the Old Testament.

They're waiting for restoration of the Romans be kicked out for the Jews to be restored and for everything to be awesome.
