The Resurrection and Ascension--Definite Convictions Series

            As a fan of Kansas City sports, I like to listen to a sports talk radio station out of Kansas City from time to time. There’s a jewelry store in Kansas City that runs a lot of commercials on that station, and their advertising slogan is, “Now you have a friend in the jewelry business.”

            That’s a pretty smart slogan if you ask me, because it makes us feel good to think that we have friends in strategic places. If you’re ever in a jam, it feels good to be able to say, “Don’t worry – I’ve got a friend who can get us out of this!”

            Today we’re going to be reminded that we have a friend in the most powerful place of all. We have an advocate in heaven – someone who is representing us and defending us. This friend is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ himself.

            Jesus assumed this role for us after his death when he was raised to life and then ascended to heaven 40 days later. Section 5 of our Statement of Faith contains brief statements about Jesus’ resurrection and ascension before describing his present ministry for us. This section states:

We believe in the bodily resurrection and Lordship of Jesus Christ, his ascension into heaven and his present advocacy and priesthood in the presence of God for us (Acts 2:32; 1 Cor. 15:20, 23; Acts 1:9; 1 John 2:1; Heb 7:25; 8:1-2).

Let’s take a closer look at these claims.

The Bodily Resurrection

            As you can see, our Statement emphasizes that Jesus’ body truly did come back to life after it had been entombed. This emphasis is meant to counter the tendency among some people to try to accommodate Christian teaching to the challenges of skeptics. The Resurrection was obviously an unusual event; it was out of the ordinary, and so many people over the years have said that there is no way that it could’ve happened.

            Some people who have desired to uphold the Christian faith have responded to these challenges by saying, “Well, we certainly believe that Jesus spoke to the disciples after he died, but perhaps he just spoke to them in a vision. Maybe it’s true that his body didn’t really come back to life, but the disciples just thought it did.”

            That idea flies in the face of so much of what the Bible records. What happened to his body if it did not come back to life? The Bible says that three women first found his tomb to be empty when they went to visit it on the first day of the week. They reported it to the disciples, and Peter and John found the tomb to be empty when they went to check it out. Even the Roman soldiers who were supposed to guard the tomb reported that it was empty.

            The Bible also states that when Jesus appeared to the disciples they touched his body and he ate food in their presence. The Bible clearly means to tell us that his body did come back to life, and that is the only explanation that makes sense of the facts.

The Lordship of Jesus Christ

            Our Statement then mentions the Lordship of Jesus Christ. This phrase refers to the truth that Jesus himself announced in Matthew 28:18 as part of the Great Commission: “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.” Obviously, as the second person of the Trinity, the Son of God had always been ruling over all things. But after his resurrection, Jesus as the God-man was exalted into authority over all things. That fact will be on full display one day after Jesus returns to establish his kingdom in this world.

            The Lordship of Jesus is also highlighted in the rather familiar passage in Philippians 2:9-11 [READ Phil 2:9-11]. This detail is easy to misunderstand, but we should note that the title “Lord” is actually the “name above all names” that was bestowed on Jesus. It is not Christ’s human name of Jesus, but his new title of Lord that is the name above all names. He was given that title as an honor because of his willingness to carry out God the Father’s plan of salvation. And again, we will see his Lordship on full display when he comes to reign over this world.

His Present Advocacy and Priesthood

            It’s very natural for us to ask, “What is Jesus up to these days?” We know what he did in the past because we have read about it in the Bible. We know he’s going to return in the future and that we will be with him forever. But what is he up to right now? For many Christians, that remains a great mystery. Our Statement sums up the Bible’s teaching about this when it mentions his present advocacy and priesthood.

            As our advocate, Jesus acts like something of a defense attorney for us in the courtroom of God the Father. 1 John 2:1 puts it like this – “My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin.” That’s Plan A for all of us, right? We don’t want to fall to temptation, but if we do, we don’t need to fall into despair.

            Why is that? Notice the rest of the verse – “But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.” Jesus is right now in the presence of God the Father to plead our cause for us when we sin.

            Now we must understand that Christ’s advocacy is not for God’s benefit, but for the sake of our confidence and reassurance. God the Father is not some angry man looking for a fight who has to be restrained by Jesus. Remember the truth of John 3:16 – for God so loved the world that he gave his only Son.

            The Father loves us and he doesn’t have to be constantly convinced to continue to love us. But that fact is so easy to forget when we sin, isn’t it? We think, “How could God still love me after what I’ve done? How could he still accept me after this?” So for our sake, whenever we are tempted to doubt God’s love for us, we have this reassurance that Christ is on our side – ready to take up our cause and defend us. What grace and mercy!

            Closely related to all of this is the work of Christ’s priesthood for us. Just as the priests in the Old Testament offered sacrifices for the sins of the people, Jesus has offered a sacrifice for our sins to God the Father. The author of Hebrews spilled a lot of ink in his letter as he emphasized that Christ’s priesthood is far superior to that of the Old Testament priests:

·         Jesus only had to offer his sacrifice once, whereas the Old Testament priests had to do it over and over again;

·         Jesus’ own blood was far more precious than the blood of animals that they offered;

·         Jesus never had to offer sacrifices for his own sins like they did, because he was perfect;

·         Jesus can now remain a priest for us forever – he never has to be replaced like they did when they died.

            So through his own death, Jesus offered once for all time the only sacrifice that was needed for us to receive complete and total forgiveness from God. As Hebrews 7:25 puts it, “he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.”

Monday Matters

            As always, we want to find a very practical application of these truths to our daily lives. With these ideas, such an application is not hard to find:

Jesus’ advocacy and priesthood give me all the confidence I need to pray to God about every temptation and to confess my every sin.

            Since Jesus sits right now at the right hand of God the Father, I never have to wonder if I’m going to get a friendly reception from God when I pray. I have an advocate pleading my cause and a priest representing me in the presence of God.

            With these reassurances, God has made such a gracious accommodation to our weakness. We are so quick to lose our confidence in the promises that God has already given us. Sometimes it is lost through sin, sometimes it is lost through cynicism. We are told in life that if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is, and when we read in the Bible about God’s magnificent love for us, it sounds too good to be true! So even we, as God’s children, might say, “How can it be? Can I always count on him to be loving?”

            So that no lingering doubts about his love will keep us from him, God tells us that we have an advocate and a priest in his presence so that we are always doubly assured of a friendly reception. Here’s what the author of Hebrews has to say about this [READ Heb. 10:19-23].

            So that we will never wonder if God can truly understand what we need, we are reminded that our advocate and priest can sympathize with us through and through [Heb. 4:14-16].

            Isn’t that just what we need? Mercy! Grace! And they are ours for the taking whenever we go to the Lord in prayer. And we can do so with every confidence, knowing that our pleas are amplified by our great high priest!

Your Greatest Allies in Prayer--Life with God Series

            Teachers and their students have a rather ironic relationship when you think about it. On the one hand, teachers are given the responsibility of enforcing the academic standards of the classroom. They are the ones who test the students and evaluate them, and ultimately they are the ones who give the students a grade.

            But on the other hand, teachers are also the ones who give their students the most help to meet the academic standards of the classroom. They are their students’ greatest resource and biggest supporters at the school. So at the very same time, teachers are enforcing the standards and giving their students the most help in meeting those standards. That’s kind of ironic, don’t you think?

            In a similar way, we also see this irony in prayer. God, of course, is the one whom we pray to, asking him to hear our appeals, but as we are going to learn today, he is also the one who gives us the most help in prayer. So as we make our appeals to him, he is – at the very same time – the one who gives us the most help in offering our prayers.

            Today we will see how the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit each work in various ways to encourage us to pray and to help us overcome the general weakness that hounds us as we journey through a fallen world. We can be very encouraged today to see just how much God assists us so that we might pray!

We will look at each of the members of the Trinity in turn.

1. The Father draws us into prayer through His kindness

            To see this truth, we can review some of what we learned last week in Matthew 6:7-8. In those verses, Jesus contrasted the way that the Gentiles prayed with the way that we should pray. The Gentiles had no particular reason to think that their gods cared about them, but we enjoy a very different relationship with our God. He is actually our father, as Jesus reminds us in verse eight, and when we remember how he sent his own son to die for us so that he might forgive us and adopt us as his own children, we have reason to believe that God’s ears are open to our prayers because of the kindness of his heart.

            So when my mind says, “Do you really think God will care about what I pray?”, my spirit can say, “Yes, because I am his child, and he has shown such a great love to create this relationship.” So God’s kind love draws us to pray to him by convincing us that he cares and that he really will consider what we have to say.

Since we spent a little more time on that last week, let’s move on now to see how the Son helps us in prayer.

2. The Son leads us into prayer through His sympathy and intercession

            To learn more about this truth, I’d like you to turn with me to the book of Hebrews. If you’ve ever wondered, “What is Jesus up to right now?”, the book of Hebrews tells us about one of his present-day activities. In the early chapters of this book, we learn that Jesus is in heaven serving as our high priest before the Father. That is a very rich image from the Old Testament, but today we might be a little more familiar with the idea of an ambassador or advocate – someone who represents our interests in the presence of an authority figure.

            This is one way in which Jesus is helping us right now. Notice how Hebrews 2:14-18 describes this [READ Heb 2:14-18]. Jesus knows what it’s like to deal with the weakness of a human body. He understands the temptation to be grouchy when you haven’t had enough sleep, or to be impatient when someone makes one more request of you after you’re already worn out. He understands these things because he has been through them, too.

            The author of Hebrews picks up this theme again in 4:14-16 [READ 4:14-16]. How wonderful that Jesus can sympathize with our weaknesses! He has been through the same struggles that we’ve faced, so he can serve as a merciful advocate. This should give us great encouragement to pray to God.

            Don’t we all find ourselves less than enthusiastic sometimes to talk to people who haven’t been through the things we’ve been through? We don’t feel very eager to talk to someone when we think that they just can’t understand what we’ve experienced. We may still labor through a conversation, but it’s likely to be hindered because of those feelings.

            Sometimes as we walk through life in this fallen world and we consider prayer, we find ourselves thinking, “What does God know about pain and suffering? He’s way off, somewhere up there in heaven being worshiped by angels. How could he really understand what I’m going through?”

            It is for that very reason that the Bible reminds us about the experiences and sufferings of the Lord Jesus and tells us that he is right there in the presence of the Father to sympathize with us and to intercede for us.

            Consider the variety of hardships that Jesus faced in his life, and consider if he can understand what you have been through. He likely lived in a level of poverty that none of us has ever experienced. If our historical research today is correct, he grew up in a home that was carved out of a cave – literally a hole in the ground! Every one of us lives in great comfort compared to that!

            Also, from the biblical story, we have very good reason to think that Jesus’ adoptive father, Joseph, died during Jesus’ lifetime. Jesus would know, then, what it is like to feel the grief of losing a parent.

            Jesus also knows what its like to be misunderstood and opposed by your own family. We read a couple of times in the Gospels that his brothers thought he was crazy and tried to bring him back home from preaching all over the countryside.

            Jesus knows what it is like to live under the heavy hand of an oppressive government; he knows what it is like to pay unfair taxes; he knows what it is like to receive injustice at the hands of a judicial system; he knows what it is like to be stolen from; he knows what it’s like to be betrayed by your best friend; he knows what it’s like to face public humiliation.

            Do you remember that he even knows what it’s like to feel abandoned by God? As he bore our sins on the cross, there was that fateful moment when Jesus cried out, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Perhaps in that moment, Jesus felt the full weight of the Father’s anger toward sin. He would know what it’s like, then, to feel that God Himself is opposed to you.

            And let us not forget what the author of Hebrews emphasized—Jesus has experienced every kind of temptation that we have. So when we speak to God in prayer, we know that we have a great high priest in Jesus Christ—an advocate who truly understands what we’re going through because he’s been there. Since God did not remain distant from the pain of this world but stepped down into it and experienced it, he is sympathetic toward our needs and is able to commiserate with us.

3. The Holy Spirit helps us in prayer to overcome our weakness

            In Romans 8, we learn about an incredible ministry that the Holy Spirit performs to help us in prayer. Beginning in Romans 8:18, the Apostle Paul discusses the tension that we feel between the sufferings of this present time and the glory that awaits us as children of God. According to Paul, the glory that is to be revealed is incomparable, but at the present time our souls ache and groan because we live under the curse of sin.

            Our natural limitations as creatures are only exaggerated by the effects of sin on our bodies and our minds, and so in this sense we live in a general state of weakness. Should we despair, then, because of our weakness? No—just look here at verse 26: “Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought.”

            Now, I don’t believe Paul is saying, “Shame on you! You should know better than to ask for the things you ask for.” No, I think he’s saying that we cannot always know what to pray for. We pray according to the best of our knowledge, but our knowledge is limited. Sometimes this life can be so disorienting that we don’t even know where to begin when we speak to God. We don’t know whether to ask for this or to ask for that.

            There’s certainly nothing wrong with praying for the things we desire to have come about, but in our limited knowledge, we just don’t know exactly what God’s plan will be. Before I ever met Carmen, I spent a whole summer praying that a certain girl would become my wife. We were good friends, and I’d heard from some mutual friends that she was interested in me, so I had some high hopes. During that summer, I can remember frequently taking walks in the evening, praying that God would bring us together and anticipating what that would be like, because I had high confidence that God would grant my request.

            Well, when the school year started up, we reconnected and re-kindled our friendship. After about three weeks, I asked her out on a date, and would you know that I didn’t even get one date with that girl? She politely declined, and I asked her if this was a “no” for now or a “no” for good, and she said it was a “no” for good.

            I couldn’t believe it! I had prayed about it for months, and I thought it would be a great match, but God declined that request because he had a different plan in mind.

            Now, I didn’t know that, and I couldn’t have known that, so should we just give up on prayer, then, because of this confusion? No, we can offer our prayers and trust in what the Spirit will do for us. Continued reading in v. 26—“but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.”

            Just think of this grace and sympathy—the Holy Spirit supplements our prayers to bring them into accord with the will of God. He speaks up for us even when we don’t know what to say, or when we might say something amiss.

            Since I’ve had children, I’ve come to learn that I can often understand what they’re trying to say even when other people can’t. I know how they say things and when they might mix up certain words, so if they’re talking to someone else and not getting through, I can usually step in and say, “Here’s what they were trying to say.”

            Perhaps that’s how we should think of the Holy Spirit’s help for us. As we struggle to communicate our desires to God or the depths of our grief, the Holy Spirit intercedes and says, “Here’s what they’re really trying to say.”

            If I could put all of God’s help for us in prayer into one picture, I think it would look like this—the Father stands out in front of us, calling us through kindness to come to him in prayer. As he calls, Jesus stands beside us and takes us by the arm, saying, “Yes! I’ve been where you are. This is the right step to take. Go to him and you’ll find mercy and grace.” Behind us, with a hand on our shoulder, ready to steady us, is the Holy Spirit, saying, “Go ahead. Don’t worry—I’ll help you!”

            Though we appeal to God in prayer, he is the very one who gives us the most help for our prayers. So don’t decline his kind-hearted call to ask, seek, and knock. Don’t think that he can’t understand, because Jesus can—and He does! Don’t worry if you’re not entirely settled on what to say, because the Holy Spirit will help you. Let us take advantage of this great outpouring of help from the Lord.

God--The One, True Know-It-All--Attributes of God Series

            Nobody likes a know-it-all—someone who acts like they know everything. That’s why such people are so annoying—because their attitude is only an act, and everyone knows it but them. However, I believe everyone desires the sense of security that comes from knowing that someone really does know it all!

            This morning as we study God’s attributes or characteristics, we will see that God is the one, true know-it-all! According to the Bible, God knows everything that can be known. The big, fancy word for this attribute is “omniscience,” a word that comes into English from Latin. I want to answer a couple of general questions this morning about what God knows and how He came to know it, then we will talk about some comforting and challenging implications of this attribute of God.

1. What does God know?

A. He knows all factual knowledge about the past, present, and future (1 John 3:20; John 21:17)

            This claim will become obvious as we go on this morning, but the Bible does include a couple of short but direct statements to this effect. In 1 John 3:20, John writes about how God’s knowledge is greater than ours, and he concludes the verse by simply writing, “God knows everything.” Also, in John 21:17, Jesus is having a conversation with the apostle Peter in which Jesus repeatedly asks Peter about Peter’s love for him. Finally, Peter simply says, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Peter was affirming that Jesus is God, and as God, He knows everything. So God knows everything that has happened in the past, He knows everything that is happening now, and He knows everything that will happen in the future. But not only does He know what did happen in the past…

B. He knows what would have happened in the past if circumstances had been different (Matt. 11:20-24)

            In Matthew 11, Jesus speaks out against the people of certain cities who refused to believe in Him. In v. 21 he says, “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.” Tyre and Sidon were cities that were frequently criticized in the Old Testament for their idolatry, but here Jesus says that they would have repented if they had seen the mighty works that He was performing! This is a fascinating statement because it tells us that God knows all of the various courses that history could have taken. So for example, He knows how the US would be different if the South had won the Civil War, or if Germany had won World War II. Sometimes when I was on vacation as a child, my dad would ask me how I thought my life might be different if I had grown up in our vacation town rather than my hometown. That was always interesting to imagine, but God doesn’t have to imagine it because He actually knows!

C. He knows my very thoughts (Ps. 139:1-4; Gen. 6:5)

            God not only knows what we actually do—He knows the thoughts that lie behind our actions and the thoughts upon which we never choose to act. In Psalm 139:1-4, King David wrote, “O Lord, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.”

            Also, just before the global flood in the Book of Genesis, we read this: “The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually (Gen. 6:5).” The Lord not only saw the people’s wicked acts, He understood their thoughts as well. And not only does God know the thoughts of my heart…

D. He knows my heart more accurately than I do (Jer. 17:9-10; Ps. 139:23-24)

            It is very easy for us to act a certain way and tell ourselves that our motives were good and noble when in reality they were anything but. But God is not fooled by our mind games. Jeremiah 17:9-10 says, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”

            Now this idea of self-deception is a little disturbing, because we may think, “How will I ever know if I’m deceiving myself?” Well, we can pray the same prayer that King David prayed at the end of Psalm 139: “Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting (Ps. 139:23-24)!” David is admitting that even he doesn’t understand his own heart the way that God does, so he asks God to search him and then lead him. That is the same prayer that we should pray as well.

Well, we have seen now the basics of what God knows, now let’s answer the question…

2. How did He come to know it?

A. Not through the instruction of anyone else (Is. 40:13-14; Rom. 11:34)

            In Isaiah 40:13-14, Isaiah asks some rhetorical questions about God. He writes, “Who has measured the Spirit of the Lord, or what man shows him his counsel? Whom did he consult, and who made him understand? Who taught him the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and showed him the way of understanding?” Since these are rhetorical questions, the obvious answer is—no one! He has not consulted with anyone to acquire His knowledge; no one has taught Him anything. He just simply knows what He knows! This reality is true largely because…

B. He knows the future because He has planned the future (Eph. 1:11; Is. 46:9-11)

            From the moment that God created the world, He had a plan in mind that He is now carrying out. Ephesians 1:11 says, “God works all things according to the counsel of His will.” When the Apostle Paul wrote those words, He may have had a passage like Isaiah 46:9-11 in mind, which says, “I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done, saying, ‘My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose,’ calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country. I have spoken, and I will bring it to pass; I have purposed, and I will do it.” According to these verses, why is God able to declare the end from the beginning? Because He has a purpose or a plan that He is able to carry out.

            I used this illustration a few weeks ago, but it bears repeating here. When God tells us about the future in the Bible, He is like an architect giving someone a tour of a job site. The architect is able to tell you what the final product will look like because he has already planned it, and now he is just carrying out his plan.

            God’s knowledge operates the same way. Now, this does not mean that you and I are merely puppets or robots who don’t make any real choices. The Bible always speaks to us as creatures who make real choices for which we are responsible. I’m afraid we’ll just have to wait for God to explain all of this to us someday, but suffice it to say that God’s knowledge comes from His plan for all things.

Let’s conclude this morning by thinking about a few comforting and challenging implications of the fact that God knows all things.

3. Some comforting and challenging implications

A. God knows my needs even before I ask Him to meet them (Matt. 6:7-8)

            Jesus specifically makes this point in Matthew 6:8. This thought is very comforting because we have many daily needs about which we simply forget to ask! For example, when is the last time you asked God to protect you while you sleep? We don’t think about that often around Montezuma, but it’s a real need!

            We also never need to worry that we’ve failed to give God enough information about our needs. We never need to think, “Oh no! I forgot to tell God when that bill is due! How will He ever know?”

            We also have needs come up that can drastically change our lives, like medical problems or a death in our family. Sometimes we’re unprepared to deal with the needs that come during these times, but God was not caught off guard! He knows His plan to help us before we even know we need help!

B. God’s knowledge about my life is first-hand knowledge

            God doesn’t learn about us through some heavenly game of “Telephone” where one angel talks to another angel who talks to another angel until the news finally reaches God. He doesn’t need to rely on anyone else for His knowledge about us.

            Sometimes people treat us unfairly because they received bad information about us. Friends may pull away because they’ve heard some rumor about us, or they may assume that we’ve had bad motives for some decision that we’ve made. But we don’t have to worry about unfair treatment from God! We will never hear Him say, “Rumor has it…!”

C. God knew about all of my future sins when He gave me the gift of salvation

            This is a very comforting thought. In our series on eternal security, we learned that when God grants me forgiveness for my sins, God as my Judge is declaring that my “debt to society” (so to speak) has been fully paid. When He rendered that verdict, He did so not only with knowledge of all my past sins, but with knowledge of all my future sins as well, and He declared that all of them had been paid for by the blood of Christ.

            So you can rest assured that there is no skeleton in your closet that will cause God to re-open the case against you! There is no new evidence against you that will come to light because God already knew about all of the evidence. This thought gives us the confidence and reassurance that we need to thrive spiritually because we never have to wonder if God will change His mind about adopting us into His family.

D. I cannot hide anything from God (Heb. 4:12-13)

            God knows me inside and out, so consequently, I can never fool Him! I could be two-faced and live a double life for a long time, and its possible that my secrets might never get out. But no matter how many people I fooled, I would never have fooled God for a single moment.

            This thought is very sobering. It means that my life is an open book to God. Hebrews 4:12-13 states, “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.” I think the author of Hebrews may have had Genesis 3 in mind when he wrote that last sentence. After Adam and Eve sinned against God, the Bible says that they sewed some fig leaves together to hide their nakedness, because now all of a sudden they were embarrassed and ashamed. But God wasn’t fooled by a few fig leaves, and He’s not fooled by our attempts to hide our sins today. He’s not fooled when we delete the browsing history on the computer; He’s not fooled when we say hurtful things and then try to pass it off as a joke. Its just fig leaves! King David’s prayer is worth repeated here: “Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting (Ps. 139:23-24)!”

            May we be corrected today by understanding the depths of God’s knowledge, and encouraged by basking in His greatness. As the Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 11:33, “Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways (NASB)!”
