1
00:00:01,076 --> 00:00:03,534
"All that the Father gives 
Me shall come to Me,"

2
00:00:03,534 --> 00:00:05,020
and the last half of the verse,

3
00:00:05,020 --> 00:00:08,115
"The one who comes to Me,

4
00:00:08,115 --> 00:00:11,925
I will certainly not cast out."

5
00:00:11,925 --> 00:00:13,445
Absolute certainty that Christ

6
00:00:13,445 --> 00:00:16,716
will in no wise cast out 
anyone who comes to Him.

7
00:00:16,716 --> 00:00:20,386
Now the term "cast out" in this verse

8
00:00:20,386 --> 00:00:24,685
is often taken in 
the sense of "turn away."

9
00:00:24,685 --> 00:00:27,145
The one who comes to Me, 
I will not turn away.

10
00:00:27,145 --> 00:00:28,207
I won't refuse him.

11
00:00:28,207 --> 00:00:31,276
I won't refuse to accept him.

12
00:00:31,276 --> 00:00:34,385
And certainly that's true.

13
00:00:34,385 --> 00:00:35,355
Can you imagine?

14
00:00:35,355 --> 00:00:37,427
The Father wants to 
give a gift to His Son.

15
00:00:37,427 --> 00:00:39,326
He says, "I don't want it."

16
00:00:39,326 --> 00:00:41,821
That's not possible.

17
00:00:41,821 --> 00:00:44,225
But that's not what Jesus is saying here.

18
00:00:44,225 --> 00:00:46,889
The word translated "cast out"

19
00:00:46,889 --> 00:00:48,872
is used with reference to something

20
00:00:48,872 --> 00:00:52,898
that's already in that 
is ejected or driven out.

21
00:00:52,898 --> 00:00:56,515
It's the same word used 
with reference to demons.

22
00:00:56,515 --> 00:00:59,165
They're in and they're cast out.

23
00:00:59,165 --> 00:01:01,867
Or when Jesus drove 
them out of the temple.

24
00:01:01,867 --> 00:01:03,327
Same word.

25
00:01:03,327 --> 00:01:05,977
He cast them out of the temple.

26
00:01:05,977 --> 00:01:08,176
And what He's saying here is He's saying

27
00:01:08,176 --> 00:01:09,645
if you ever come to Me -

28
00:01:09,645 --> 00:01:11,957
if My Father ever gives you to Me,

29
00:01:11,957 --> 00:01:13,424
I'll never get rid of you.

30
00:01:13,424 --> 00:01:16,245
I'll hold on to you forever.

31
00:01:16,245 --> 00:01:20,505
I will in no wise part with you.

32
00:01:20,505 --> 00:01:22,625
Nothing could cause Me to part with you.

33
00:01:22,625 --> 00:01:25,262
Douglas McMillan - he told a story.

34
00:01:25,262 --> 00:01:27,813
He said he had a Bible 
that his father gave him.

35
00:01:27,813 --> 00:01:29,695
His father had died.

36
00:01:29,695 --> 00:01:31,377
But that Bible his father gave him

37
00:01:31,377 --> 00:01:32,587
is up there on the shelf.

38
00:01:32,587 --> 00:01:35,084
It's all worn out, falling apart.

39
00:01:35,084 --> 00:01:37,717
And some friend came and 
was looking through his books.

40
00:01:37,717 --> 00:01:39,875
He said, "You ought 
to throw that Bible away.

41
00:01:39,875 --> 00:01:41,507
It's about to fall apart."

42
00:01:41,507 --> 00:01:44,061
He said, "No way I'll 
ever get rid of that.

43
00:01:44,061 --> 00:01:47,275
My father gave that to me."

44
00:01:47,275 --> 00:01:50,735
That's what Jesus is talking about here.

45
00:01:50,735 --> 00:01:54,516
I will in no wise - nothing could cause Me

46
00:01:54,516 --> 00:01:57,936
to get rid of them and throw them away.

47
00:01:57,936 --> 00:02:03,460
I've received them as 
a gift from the Father.

48
00:02:03,460 --> 00:02:05,125
Beloved, if you're a Christian,

49
00:02:05,125 --> 00:02:08,621
Christ is never going to part with you.

50
00:02:08,621 --> 00:02:12,130
And He goes on to explain why.

51
00:02:12,130 --> 00:02:13,684
Verse 38, "For..."

52
00:02:13,684 --> 00:02:15,536
now He says, "He that comes to Me

53
00:02:15,536 --> 00:02:17,005
I will certainly not cast out,

54
00:02:17,005 --> 00:02:18,665
for I have come down from heaven

55
00:02:18,665 --> 00:02:19,895
not to do My own will,

56
00:02:19,895 --> 00:02:21,705
but the will of Him who sent Me."

57
00:02:21,705 --> 00:02:24,097
He says the reason that I will never

58
00:02:24,097 --> 00:02:27,496
cast away anybody who has been given to Me

59
00:02:27,496 --> 00:02:30,677
is that I came down here 
to accomplish a purpose.

60
00:02:30,677 --> 00:02:33,906
I came down here to do the 
will of Him who sent Me.

61
00:02:33,906 --> 00:02:35,906
What's that, Lord? Well, the next verse:

62
00:02:35,906 --> 00:02:38,870
"This is the will of Him who sent Me,

63
00:02:38,870 --> 00:02:40,838
that of those that He's given Me...

64
00:02:40,838 --> 00:02:45,116
of all that He's given 
Me, I lose nothing."

65
00:02:45,116 --> 00:02:46,675
Not one.

66
00:02:46,675 --> 00:02:48,735
"...But raise them up on the last day."

67
00:02:48,735 --> 00:02:51,136
He said I came down here 
to accomplish a purpose.

68
00:02:51,136 --> 00:02:54,510
I came to save everyone 
that the Father's given Me

69
00:02:54,510 --> 00:02:56,155
and I'm not going to fail

70
00:02:56,155 --> 00:02:58,727
at what I came to do.

71
00:02:58,727 --> 00:03:00,746
This clip is from the full sermon:

72
00:03:00,746 --> 00:03:02,697
Everyone and No One
