1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:22,200
This is part two of the legacy.

2
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,440
What can we leave that will last?

3
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:32,000
Should we give the future or of the past success or wealth or memories fast?

4
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,040
There's only one thing that will last.

5
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:39,880
But will they cherish and hold fast to the only thing that will last?

6
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:48,360
As each day fades from sight and the day fades tonight, what do you give that they hold tight?

7
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,900
Is it worth more than that widow's might?

8
00:00:51,900 --> 00:00:59,080
The gift of faith that widow had is her legacy that will last.

9
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:04,440
We work and work to give of wealth, of future, of joy and of health.

10
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:10,000
When our time is at the end and we leave this place with open hand, there's only one thing

11
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,400
that will last.

12
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:17,720
But will they cherish and hold fast to the only thing that will last?

13
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:22,680
So what you leave is worth it all, of hope and joy and eternity's call.

14
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:27,560
It's not the memory of your life nor your history or the fight.

15
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,920
The legacy you leave is great as still.

16
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,520
The one true gift of Father's will.

17
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:39,960
There's only one thing that will last that they will cherish and hold fast of faith and

18
00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:42,840
hope and of the past.

19
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:52,720
The legacy left that will last is Christ and his gospel be steadfast.

20
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:59,080
Simplest out of all of this message is Matthew.

21
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,280
Matthew 28.

22
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:09,400
There's one thing that we need to be reminded of and remember continually is that all the

23
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:20,160
things that we share and experience, the archives, the history speak not just of the lives that

24
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,720
were given and the names that are remembered.

25
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:31,760
But there's one truth that speaks louder still and that's the truth of the gospel.

26
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:41,800
The gospel of Christ, the one true legacy and the one name that matters above all names.

27
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:50,720
Matthew 28 verse 18 through 19, legacy of making disciples.

28
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:55,280
And Jesus came and said to them, all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

29
00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:04,520
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and

30
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,480
of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

31
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:19,040
As I said earlier, a legacy without obedience is not a legacy.

32
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:25,160
It's important that we as God's people live out this legacy that he has left us from the

33
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,180
beginning of time.

34
00:03:27,180 --> 00:03:31,760
This legacy was firmly established before the foundation of the world and his name is

35
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:32,760
Jesus.

36
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,600
He's your legacy.

37
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,280
And this legacy is eternal.

38
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:39,960
He always was and always will be.

39
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:47,000
He's everlasting to everlasting and nothing will ever change the reality of that legacy.

40
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:53,800
Not only is the gospel a person, but a legacy as a person also.

41
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,600
All the things that he does to his people are just a picture of the legacy he has given

42
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,660
us, the reality of himself.

43
00:04:02,660 --> 00:04:06,480
So he commands us as his people to be obedient.

44
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,520
First, go and make disciples.

45
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,960
Go make.

46
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:21,320
Third, the responsibility is yours to baptize.

47
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,080
Get them on the same road that you've been placed on.

48
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,640
In the same way that you go and make, get them on the road to obedience that they may

49
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,920
go and make also.

50
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:38,840
That's why baptism is so vitally important to the reality of leaving the legacy.

51
00:04:38,840 --> 00:04:42,800
It's living the legacy.

52
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:51,560
Verse 20 of Matthew 28, in all reality is probably the most crucial, which we've gone over and

53
00:04:51,560 --> 00:05:02,200
over and over in the first part of the service to teach your children to obey.

54
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:08,240
That's what it says in verse 20, teaching them to observe all that I've commanded you

55
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:15,600
and behold, I am with you always to the end of the age.

56
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:22,480
So why is it so important?

57
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:29,160
Why is it so important that we teach others to observe?

58
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:41,200
We teach others to observe because a legacy that is not obedient is not a legacy at all.

59
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:46,160
Let me go through the important keys of the legacy.

60
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:55,600
The responsibility of the legacy is on you, that you must take care and keep your soul

61
00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:02,240
diligent and to teach, to make known this legacy to your children.

62
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,400
The legacy must be taught that these words that I've commanded you today shall be on

63
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:12,620
your heart and you shall teach them diligently, not only as you talk with them in the house,

64
00:06:12,620 --> 00:06:17,360
but as you walk along the way and as you lie down and as you rise.

65
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:23,260
That you keep the legacy, that means to continue it, that you shall lay up the words of mine

66
00:06:23,260 --> 00:06:29,520
in your heart, that you shall bind those words of mine as a sign on your hand, that they

67
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:37,240
shall be as frontlets between your eyes and that you shall teach them and talk of them

68
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:44,800
and walk and lie down and rise with your children.

69
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:51,320
And not only that, that everyone who comes to your home shall see the legacy written

70
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,640
all over your house.

71
00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,840
A legacy is obedience lived and obedience given.

72
00:07:00,840 --> 00:07:05,560
Faithfully obey the voice of the Lord your God, be careful to do all.

73
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:16,960
And if you obey the voice of the Lord your God, he will overtake you with blessing.

74
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:25,640
The legacy that's left, we are reminded that the legacy lived is legacy given.

75
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:32,600
For I've delivered to you as a first importance that I also received that Christ died for

76
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:38,000
our sins in accordance with the scriptures, that he was buried and he was raised on the

77
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,680
third day in accordance with the scriptures.

78
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:49,480
That's the message of your legacy, that your responsibility to continue from generation

79
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:54,920
to generation with this legacy is not only to be obedient but to give it away, that you

80
00:07:54,920 --> 00:08:01,400
make disciples and you teach disciples to be obedient so that they can give it away

81
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,560
also.

82
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:04,560
That's legacy.

83
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:13,680
So let us enjoy our history, please don't forget their legacy.

84
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:35,520
It's the same legacy that you've been given.
