The 'Napkin' (Jamin Moore)

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=""]A @Christadelphians Video: Description: This talk considers the passages where this word appears, and considers the different attitudes to the work which was to be done. There are differences between the two resurrections where the face of the corpse had been bound with a napkin. ### Summary This presentation explores the significance of the handkerchief or napkin in the Bible, particularly in the context of the Apostle Paul's missionary journeys and the resurrection of Lazarus and Jesus. It highlights the contrast between those who labour diligently for the gospel and those who neglect their responsibilities, as well as the symbolic meaning of the napkin in relation to the struggles of the flesh and the hope of the Kingdom. ### Highlights 🔍 The presentation discusses the special miracles performed by God through the hands of the Apostle Paul, where handkerchiefs or aprons were brought to him and used to heal the sick and cast out evil spirits. 🔍 It compares the diligence of the Apostle Paul, who laboured tirelessly for the gospel, to the wicked servant in the parable of the pounds, who hid his talent in a napkin, refusing to use it for the benefit of his master. 🔍 The presentation explores the symbolic meaning of the napkin in the resurrection of Lazarus, where his face was bound with a napkin, and the resurrection of Jesus, where the napkin was found neatly folded, signifying the completion of His earthly toil. 🔍 It connects the concept of sweat and labour to the curse of Adam in Genesis 3, and how the Kingdom age will be marked by the absence of the need for the napkin, as the struggles of the flesh will be overcome. ### Keywords - Gospel Preaching - Resurrection - Symbolic Meaning ### Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction to the Apostle Paul's missionary journeys 01:15 - Miracles performed through the Apostle Paul's hands 03:00 - The handkerchief and apron used for healing 04:00 - The parable of the pounds and the wicked servant's use of the napkin 07:00 - The connection between sweat, labour, and the curse in Genesis 3 10:00 - The resurrection of Lazarus and the napkin on his face 13:00 - The resurrection of Jesus and the neatly folded napkin 16:00 - The absence of the need for the napkin in the Kingdom age 18:00 - Exhortation to labour faithfully for the gospel.
