Summary
All knowledge, power, and revelation are entrusted to Christ. Jesus is the sole Mediator. “No one knows the Father except the Son and those he chooses to reveal him to...” The knowledge of God is obtained solely through the Son, and outside of Christ, there is nothing but blindness. Furthermore,the text says, “to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.” This is a decisive statement of effectual calling. The initiative in salvation lies not in man’s will, but in Christ’s sovereign will.

| 0:00.0 | Amen. Please join me in standing for the reading of God's word. This morning we continue our series through |
| 0:04.9 | the gospel according to Matthew. Our text for today is Matthew chapter 11 versus 25 through verses 30. |
| 0:12.4 | Again, that's Matthew chapter 11 verses 25 through 30 is our text for today. I'll read our text in its entirety. |
| 0:19.0 | When I finish reading the text, I'm going to say this is the word of the Lord, at which point I would appreciate very much if you would |
| 0:24.4 | respond by saying thanks be to God. One final time, our text for today is the gospel according to Matthew |
| 0:30.1 | chapter 11, verses 25 through 30. The Bible says this. At that time, Jesus declared, I thank you, Father, |
| 0:39.1 | Lord of heaven and earth, |
| 0:45.4 | that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me |
| 0:52.8 | by my father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, |
| 0:57.0 | and no one knows the Father except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him. |
| 1:05.0 | Come to me, all who labor and who are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you |
| 1:14.4 | and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls, |
| 1:22.3 | for my yoke is easy and my burden is light. This is the word of the Lord. All right, please be seated. We'll go |
| 1:30.8 | ahead and dive right in. The first phrase that I want us to focus on is when Christ says, |
| 1:36.4 | I thank you, Father, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed |
| 1:41.3 | them to little children. I do believe that there is a literal application |
| 1:47.1 | in this regard of little children. God does regenerate and save, not always, but I believe in |
| 1:54.8 | Christian households quite often little children. It is not a biblical concept that we should assume that God will always wait till |
| 2:07.2 | adulthood before saving a person. So there are quite literally little children who God has |
| 2:14.5 | revealed His gracious will too, that God has revealed Christ too. |
| 2:20.6 | But the first thing that I want us to look at in this first portion of our text is that God has chosen to hide certain things, |
| 2:28.3 | things pertaining to Christ pertaining to salvation from the wise and understanding from the wise and understanding now this is one |
