The sermon began with a condensed overview of the book of Ezekiel: its sections and their themes. Then the main theme of this group of chapters was described: The Restitution of the nation of Israel.
A major part of the exposition is a long description of The Third Temple – a clear manifestation of the existence of restoration of The Nation of Israel to the status that God intended. The wealth of detail is a significant factor in the magnitude of this section of the book.
Here’s a direct extract from the transcript:
“But in the wilderness and so on, they looked upon the fire. They looked upon the cloud.
They looked upon the glory of God in the temple.
But for us, the glory of God dwells within us.
Seven times in the New Testament, we are told that we are the temple of the Holy Spirit.
These details, and I know it’s a bit laborious going through it, but these details just speak of the awesomeness of God.“

TRANSCRIPT OF THE SERMON
{{This has been corrected and the current upload is now the accurate text}}.
To download the transcript text-file, click on the “button” labelled “Save Video” (or “Download Video” sometimes). See below (“PS0” for full info)
PS2: ::: The latest development on the “Transcript” section is that the text-file will be subject to far less preparation than before – less editing and correction. It will still be converted to sentence-column form as before, but any trimming and polishing will be left to the user. Any shortcomings in the transcription software should be pretty obvious and so not a problem in getting the meaning (and the audio file will provide the necessary clarification if required 😀🎧 )
PS1: ::: {not-so-}NEW FORMAT of the transcript.
To ease the processing and preparation of the transcript, and we hope improve the readability of the text, a new format was been adopted in mid October. This breaks the text into sentences instead of arbitrarily-sized “paragraphs”. When the reader opens the file in a program such as Notepad (in MS Windows), then the appearance can be just like a newspaper column. The format is such that the user has many options available, depending on preferences and what software they like to use.
Any feedback on usefulness, improvement suggestions, or whatever, would be most welcome.
PS0 ::::: TRANSCRIPT OF THE SERMON >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
There is a “button” labelled “Save Video” (or “Download Video” sometimes). This actually links to a text-file to download. It is a transcript of the sermon. At present it is at an experimental stage: it is an aid to getting the most out of the sermon audio. There is no substitute for listening to the verbal delivery of a sermon. However, searching through an audio file lasting the best part of an hour can be somewhat difficult. When you approach the search knowing that you’re sure there is something about “redemption”, for example, then a transcript text-search can take you right there and show you the time in the recording where you will find it! The file is simple “text” rather than a more sophisticated form so that you can edit or reformat as you prefer.
This transcript is in 2 forms (in the one file). One half consists of normal text arrangement. The other section is short bunches of words (8 to 12 nomally) beneath the TIMES at which they occur (for the whole sermon).
This facility is in development (“experimental” as mentioned above) so any feedback on usefulness, improvement suggestions, or whatever, would be most welcome.
