(Disclaimer: This transcript is auto-generated and may contain mistakes.) Let's think about this vow, because this vow is so important to the Bible, okay? It's so crucial. Now, in verse number three, Jephthah fled from his brethren, okay? And basically, this is a picture of something. It's a picture of the children of Israel rejecting Jephthah. But you know what the picture is? It's the children of Israel rejecting God the Father. Because Jephthah represents God the Father in the story. And the children of Israel rebelled against God, and they rejected God. But in verse number six, when they call for his help, he's there to help in a time of need. Hey, you can still call upon him, even though you reject him. Verse nine, he wants to become the Lord, though. He doesn't want to just be there to help him. He wants to be in charge. He wants to be their head. He wants to be their Lord. Verse number 30, let's read verse 30 again. In Jephthah vowed to the Lord and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into my hands, okay? So he gives us a promise of sacrifice. And based on that promise of sacrifice, what does God do? God delivers the children of Israel. Verse 33 says, And he smote them from Aror, even till they come to Meneth, even twenty cities, and under the plain of the vineyards, with a very great slaughter. Thus the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel. So let's take a picture. God the Father gives a promise that then gives deliverance to the children of Israel. OK, verse thirty four. And Jephthah came to miss be in his house, and behold, his daughter came out to meet him with the timbrels and with dances, and she was his only child beside her. He had neither son nor daughter. Who does that picture? The Lord Jesus Christ. What was the promise that he would sacrifice his only child to give deliverance to the children of Israel? What does God the Father do? God the Father gives his promise that through the sacrifice of his only begotten son, we can have eternal life. And you know what I love about the order of this story is that notice the sacrifice came after the promise and the deliverance. Jesus Christ is made manifest afterwards, isn't he? God already gave the promise a long time ago, way before it was manifested. And then later it's manifested that it's going to be his only begotten son, isn't it? We had clues. We had hints as to what that was going to be to that picture. And so God is using this vow to picture the greatest story ever told. It's called the gospel of Jesus Christ. OK, now verse thirty four is the manifestation of that. There's more, though, OK? Not only is she the only daughter, but then she wants to bewail her virginity. And I believe that this is a picture. You know, it's a vague picture. It's a dark picture. But Jesus Christ crying in the Garden of Gethsemane, you know, not wanting necessarily go through with that. But what does the daughter do? She obeys the voice of her father, just like Jesus Christ accepted the sacrifice. He accepted the fact that he was going to have to die in order to what? To save the children of Israel. And he was obedient to the voice of his father, just like she was obedient to the voice of Jephthah. You can't make this stuff up, my friend. This is not an accidental in the flesh bad vow. That is so stupid. It's ridiculous. It's blasphemy. OK, now, not only that, this is really where it gets pretty cool. They the children of Israel now observe a special day verse 40 that the daughters of Israel went yearly to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year. Now I've taught this already. Hopefully you believe me. But I believe that Jesus died on Thursday. So let's count Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. You think that's a coincidence that for four days of the year they would lament the death of Jephthah's daughter, which is a picture of the gospel of Jesus Christ, which is the time of morning for his death? That's not a coincidence, my friend. That's the word of God and the word of God has power and a spiritual meaning. Unless you go to the law of liberty. I believe is in gross error here. He literally. Had a burnt sacrifice of his own child because he, as a fool in the flesh, promised he would do something that God didn't want. You think God was satisfied with that? I don't I don't think that God was satisfied. I don't think that God was pleased. I don't believe that the remaining time that he had was blessed because he went through with it. First, he said something foolish and maybe it was his own pride that he wouldn't back down. Instead, he should have humbled himself, confessed his sin before the Lord, confessed it before the people. Unless you go to L.L. Baptist Church, then everything makes no sense. You break your vows and you blaspheme God the Father. How could you say that God the Father is not pleased with this type of sacrifice when that's exactly what he did with his son? How does John three sixteen not even run through your mind when you're teaching such filthy blasphemy? Such nonsense. Because the guy doesn't have the Spirit of God in there, reminding him of the wicked blasphemy that he's teaching. And one sermon. This is what is this conclusion. Adam is conclusion. If you are a Christian, you would have to humble yourself, confess that you're wrong, and ask God to judge you instead. Lay down your own life. The father should have laid down his life instead of the child. He has a lack of value of life and worse than making the vow was that Jephthah went through with the vow. It shows the folly of how he was raised. Confess that you're wrong. What you've said was wrong. Ask God to judge you instead. Lay your own life down because as a father, you're there to protect the child. It's your job to raise up the next generation and for him to actually go through it is even worse. It just shows the folly of how he was raised. Now that he showed you the picture, the spiritual picture, you know, that's also tied to God, the father, my friend. And that sounds like Tyler Baker. That's right. But he said the greatest expression of love, he's saying, is to have someone else die instead of you. It's like, you know, hey, somebody's got to die for the world. God, I'm going to need you to go. How stupid can you be? He said, oh, you know, loving father wouldn't send his son down there. It's wicked. These people don't understand the Bible. They can't figure it out. In one sermon, Adam Fanon teaches you to break vows that you're more humble by breaking your vow. He trashes and rails on Jephthah for being carnal, even though he's carnal. He trashes and rails Jephthah for not knowing the Bible, even though he doesn't know the Bible. He discounts God's favor on Jephthah due to his vow. I mean, God gives him the victory due to the vow. And then he blasphemes God's sacrifice of his son by teaching such wicked false doctrine in this chapter. You know, everything should elevate the Lord Jesus Christ. And you say, what do you think about Jephthah's vow? Well, in light of the spiritual picture, it seems like it was pretty good. And you know what? I think God orchestrated it perfectly because of this. Jephthah, it would have been weird if him knowing that he was going to sacrifice his daughter made that vow. But God allowed Jephthah in the integrity of his heart to say he just wanted to offer something to the Lord, and then internally realizes the severity of his promise. He decides to still keep it. So it perfectly illustrates God's love and sacrifice for us. And you know what? I'm really glad that Jephthah kept his vow, just like God the Father keeps his vow. I'm glad God the Father doesn't look down from heaven and look at me and say like, I don't think that was worth Jesus. That was kind of a foolish one. I'm going to take eternal life back. But the Bible says he can't do that. Titus one, two, in hope of eternal life, which God that cannot lie promised before the world began. I love God's promises. I love that he's faithful. Hey, I love the fact that he's willing to sacrifice his son for me. I'm not going to sit here and pick that apart. What a wicked blasphemer. The Bible says, and this is the promise that he has promised us, even eternal life. I'm so glad that we serve a God that can never go back on his promise. And you know what? That's what he expects of us is not go back on our promises, not go back on our vows, not go back on the things that come out of our mouth, because you know what? God never does.
