Sermon Tone Analysis

Why don't we figure it out what their Temple should be with the words?

Why do the Nations and the people?

Brazil.

National Team.

My girl's mom.

And you.

Okay, so I got a little goofed up there, exactly after the second chorus.

That's what it is.

I'm dying.

Then we play C and then D, but it was like you play the whole intro thing again.

And you may be seated.

Pray together, shall we? Lord.

We thank you that we can come to you in worship and that, that worship can look like and sound like, adoration excitement and singing.

And that worship can look and sound like morning.

We are embody creatures, living in a broken world and sometimes the world threatens to break us.

Thank you.

That you are the good God.

Who is all-powerful?

In Jesus name, amen.

sometimes, I think we approached the Psalms and we forget that their songs, Since most of us don't speak Hebrew much less sing it, we have to, we have to go with the English translations of we have, which are pretty great until you set them to a specific Rhythm and a specific Melody and which case are kind of hard to sing.

So well done everybody.

Thank you to the worship team for a learning a song about 20 minutes before, practice or Wednesday, that's my fault.

but I hope that that gives us a little bit of it tastes as to what the Psalms were when they were written, what the Psalms remain to be, when we have the ears to hear in the mines to think,

The Book of Psalms starts with the first Anonymous, Psalm Psalm 1 and in many people would put someone in Psalm 2 at the second Anonymous.

Psalm as one either way, they're combined the introduction to the Book of Psalms in Psalms 2 is a fantastic overview of Psalms 3 through 150.

So we're going to go through 148 plus one songs today and it's going to be awesome.

Here we go.

A lot of times when we ask the questions of life we get Unsatisfactory answers.

Especially from the church or or people of Faith week, we might ask most poignantly.

How can a good God?

Also, the all-powerful.

Sometimes I like watching superhero movies because essentially what they are is wrestling with either the power of a of a deity or deities like person or the goodness of a deity like person.

And when we have our All-American superheroes like like a popular DC Comic superhero like Superman, really we aren't normally wrestling with his goodness, cuz that's just boring.

We're normally wrestling with his power and while he's super powerful and so we have to kind of come up with an equally powerful bad guy.

Can we come up with that a superhero like person without the Scruples that Superman has not?

So with God, there is no one like God there is no one whose power rivals.

There is like the Cubs in the Cardinals, you know?

There is no equal with God.

But unlike the Cubs and Cardinals.

God's enemies have no chance because just have

In.

So that it sounds all wonderful and good until your life hits a wall.

Until tragedy comes up and we say, nope, nope, I believe God is all good.

Or I believe he's all-powerful, you can't have both because a good.

God would not allow something bad to happen.

We talk to the people, on the street, we talk to the people at work, we talked to our neighbors and they might allow you to agree, or they might agree with you on one of those points.

But unless they are a True Believer in Jesus Christ, they will not concede both points to us because of they can see and they have lived in this world.

You know who else lived in this world?

David.

The other authors of the book of Psalms, you know, who else lived in this world.

Jesus Christ.

In the Psalms help us to see and to begin to fit our mind around the question.

How can an all-powerful God be good?

And you know what the Treatise is not.

Short.

To the point.

It's not well because I'm a good God.

I'm going to make all evil go away.

Guess what happens to us, who were born in sin?

But ultimately and ultimately we are experiencing living out the reality of sin, not just that we have committed, but that has sickened all of creation until the recreation of the world apart from sin.

Psalm 2 is a little bit of a of an overview of the rest of the Psalms.

So let's go ahead and let's go a little bit, through the overview of the book of Psalms.

And then we're going to walk through song to a little bit more closely so that we have contact and I want you to imagine yourself in the position of somebody who is a Jewish person in the days of Ezra or Nehemiah.

We went through the book of Ezra several months ago and I think many of you are familiar with the book of Nehemiah.

The second shortest person in the Bible, he was only knee-high.

Bildad.

The shuhite, he was the short one, remember?

You'll get that later.

It as a person living in Exile.

An exiled people in a far-off province.

With a forgotten God.

That's when the Psalms in their current version were most, likely compiled and finish.

We have five books in The Book of Psalms

We have five books in The Book of Psalms in the first one.

Focuses on David, the king.

David the king, he is coming book, four and five is, is our King is Coming Back by the end.

Of Psalm 41, the end, we see that David has embodied The blessed man from someone.

In the ruler of Psalm 2.

Buy book, 2. The question has really become?

Can This Promise This Covenant, with David?

Can it be transferred?

Is it transferable to anyone remember before David?

There wasn't really a process for choosing monarchs other than God saying that's the king.

Saul, the first king of Israel, David had no relation to each other except by marriage and it didn't work out super well.

And so the question is, can the davidic Covenant, the covenant made by God?

To David.

In 2nd Samuel 7, can it be transferred to someone else?

And the answer was yes, who What was transferred to Solomon and so we We Begin saying that David is the king.

God's chosen one.

God's Regent has it were the one ruling the Earth on behalf of God Almighty, by the end of 72, in 72 10, if you want to flip over there, you're welcome to

Me, the kings of tarshish and the coastlands render him tribute made the kings of Sheba and Siva bring gifts to whom to Solomon.

Give the Kings.

This is verse 1.

Your justice of God in your righteousness to the Royal Sun.

Thus, who's royal son, the son of David Solomon.

So by the end of the, of the second book, we have the the monarchy having been successfully transferred from King David to Solomon.

But then things get real.

By the end of book 3. Turn over to Psalm 89.

It's like 600 pages from where you're at.

Don't turn three or four pages were not in the New Testament.
