00:01:32.180 --> 00:01:34.400
It<00:01:32.280><c> means</c><00:01:32.560><c> little,</c><00:01:33.140><c> when</c><00:01:33.260><c> I</c><00:01:33.379><c> was</c><00:01:33.540><c> little.</c>

00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:37.980
Well,<00:01:34.959><c> when</c><00:01:35.120><c> I</c><00:01:35.219><c> was</c><00:01:35.359><c> younger,</c><00:01:36.280><c> being</c><00:01:36.439><c> not</c><00:01:36.640><c> very</c><00:01:36.879><c> big</c><00:01:37.019><c> anyway.</c>

00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:45.019
I'll<00:01:41.920><c> go</c><00:01:42.079><c> as</c><00:01:42.200><c> slowly</c><00:01:42.359><c> as</c><00:01:42.560><c> I</c><00:01:42.739><c> can,</c><00:01:43.180><c> but</c><00:01:43.540><c> the</c><00:01:44.079><c> problem</c><00:01:44.359><c> is,</c>

00:01:45.219 --> 00:01:48.140
as<00:01:45.420><c> I</c><00:01:45.480><c> get</c><00:01:45.579><c> a</c><00:01:45.599><c> bit</c><00:01:45.719><c> more</c><00:01:45.980><c> excited,</c><00:01:46.700><c> the</c><00:01:46.900><c> acceleration</c><00:01:47.480><c> takes</c><00:01:47.879><c> over,</c>

00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:56.260
He's<00:01:54.280><c> left</c><00:01:54.480><c> me</c><00:01:55.140><c> alone.</c>

00:01:56.599 --> 00:01:59.299
I<00:01:57.079><c> feel</c><00:01:57.099><c> quite</c><00:01:57.500><c> naked</c><00:01:57.859><c> on</c><00:01:58.060><c> the</c><00:01:58.219><c> platform</c><00:01:58.560><c> without</c><00:01:58.879><c> anybody</c>

00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:30.839
You<00:06:29.120><c> remember</c><00:06:29.439><c> the</c><00:06:29.680><c> occasion</c><00:06:29.879><c> when</c><00:06:30.000><c> they</c><00:06:30.120><c> broke</c><00:06:30.279><c> up</c><00:06:30.459><c> the</c><00:06:30.660><c> tiling</c>

00:06:36.740 --> 00:06:38.439
Something<00:06:37.060><c> was</c><00:06:37.279><c> done</c><00:06:37.420><c> for</c><00:06:37.600><c> the</c><00:06:37.779><c> paralytic</c><00:06:38.240><c> man</c>

00:06:43.779 --> 00:06:47.600
And<00:06:44.000><c> you</c><00:06:44.120><c> can</c><00:06:44.379><c> just</c><00:06:44.639><c> imagine</c><00:06:45.040><c> if</c><00:06:45.199><c> you</c><00:06:45.339><c> have</c><00:06:45.680><c> half</c><00:06:45.980><c> an</c><00:06:46.199><c> ounce</c><00:06:46.540><c> of</c><00:06:46.899><c> wit,</c>

How<00:06:58.959><c> long</c><00:06:59.180><c> do</c><00:06:59.180><c> you</c><00:06:59.319><c> think</c><00:06:59.480><c> it</c><00:06:59.699><c> was,</c><00:07:00.100><c> brethren?</c>

00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:06.740

00:07:08.860 --> 00:07:10.879
Did<00:07:09.259><c> you</c><00:07:09.480><c> ponder</c><00:07:09.839><c> this?</c>

00:07:12.519 --> 00:07:15.480
And<00:07:12.860><c> the</c><00:07:13.040><c> back</c><00:07:13.220><c> end</c><00:07:13.399><c> is</c><00:07:13.819><c> dragging</c><00:07:14.100><c> on</c><00:07:14.339><c> the</c><00:07:14.540><c> floor,</c>

00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:22.480
So<00:07:21.279><c> the</c><00:07:21.480><c> centurion</c><00:07:21.939><c> looks</c><00:07:22.180><c> around,</c>

and<00:08:07.360><c> Peter</c><00:08:07.639><c> says</c><00:08:07.879><c> that's</c><00:08:08.100><c> how</c><00:08:08.319><c> we</c><00:08:08.600><c> should</c><00:08:08.779><c> be.</c>

00:08:09.899 --> 00:08:12.540
We<00:08:10.180><c> should</c><00:08:10.579><c> follow,</c><00:08:10.879><c> because</c><00:08:11.199><c> Jesus</c><00:08:11.579><c> left</c><00:08:11.819><c> us</c><00:08:12.019><c> an</c><00:08:12.160><c> example,</c>

and<00:08:41.500><c> He</c><00:08:41.620><c> will</c><00:08:41.879><c> take</c><00:08:42.100><c> us</c><00:08:42.679><c> unerringly</c>

00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:47.440

00:08:51.159 --> 00:08:54.279

00:08:56.379 --> 00:08:58.320
That's<00:08:56.740><c> the</c><00:08:56.860><c> only</c><00:08:57.259><c> reason</c><00:08:57.679><c> why</c><00:08:57.899><c> we</c><00:08:58.100><c> follow</c>

everything<00:09:03.820><c> that</c><00:09:04.139><c> offends</c>

00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:07.200
the<00:09:05.480><c> perfection</c><00:09:05.840><c> of</c><00:09:06.100><c> our</c><00:09:06.240><c> Father.</c>

00:09:15.980 --> 00:09:17.679
Now,<00:09:16.000><c> if</c><00:09:16.139><c> we</c><00:09:16.240><c> didn't</c><00:09:16.539><c> understand</c><00:09:17.019><c> immediately</c>

00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:20.100
what<00:09:18.399><c> the</c><00:09:18.659><c> Apostle</c><00:09:18.980><c> is</c><00:09:19.059><c> talking</c><00:09:19.340><c> about</c><00:09:19.580><c> here,</c>

00:09:20.500 --> 00:09:22.960
I,<00:09:20.580><c> for</c><00:09:20.720><c> one,</c><00:09:20.860><c> would</c><00:09:21.059><c> be</c><00:09:21.379><c> very</c><00:09:21.759><c> disappointed.</c>

00:09:24.059 --> 00:09:24.759
But<00:09:24.100><c> the</c><00:09:24.220><c> end</c><00:09:24.419><c> of</c><00:09:24.519><c> all...</c>

00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:28.019
Chapter<00:09:25.259><c> 4,</c><00:09:26.080><c> the</c><00:09:26.279><c> first</c><00:09:26.500><c> Peter,</c><00:09:27.379><c> and</c><00:09:27.480><c> verse</c><00:09:27.659><c> 7.</c>

00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:30.500
But<00:09:28.299><c> the</c><00:09:28.399><c> end</c><00:09:28.559><c> of</c><00:09:28.720><c> all</c><00:09:28.940><c> things</c><00:09:29.220><c> is</c><00:09:29.399><c> at</c><00:09:29.620><c> hand.</c>

00:09:30.539 --> 00:09:32.519
Be<00:09:30.740><c> ye</c><00:09:30.940><c> therefore</c><00:09:31.240><c> sober,</c><00:09:31.700><c> and</c><00:09:31.840><c> watch</c><00:09:32.000><c> unto</c><00:09:32.220><c> prayer.</c>

00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:34.480
Now,<00:09:33.019><c> why</c><00:09:33.279><c> do</c><00:09:33.419><c> you</c><00:09:33.580><c> think</c><00:09:33.740><c> he</c><00:09:33.960><c> wrote</c><00:09:34.200><c> that?</c>

00:09:34.659 --> 00:09:37.179
What<00:09:34.899><c> has</c><00:09:35.080><c> he</c><00:09:35.220><c> got</c><00:09:35.379><c> in</c><00:09:35.679><c> mind</c><00:09:36.000><c> when</c><00:09:36.179><c> he</c><00:09:36.419><c> writes</c><00:09:36.679><c> that?</c>

00:09:37.580 --> 00:09:38.899
Well,<00:09:38.259><c> it's</c><00:09:38.500><c> obvious.</c>

00:09:38.940 --> 00:09:40.720
I<00:09:39.039><c> mean,</c><00:09:39.299><c> it</c><00:09:39.600><c> jumps</c><00:09:39.860><c> off</c><00:09:40.120><c> the</c><00:09:40.360><c> page,</c>

00:09:41.100 --> 00:09:43.580
even<00:09:41.200><c> if</c><00:09:41.460><c> a</c><00:09:41.600><c> half</c><00:09:42.220><c>-wit</c><00:09:42.379><c> like</c><00:09:42.639><c> me</c><00:09:42.879><c> can</c><00:09:43.080><c> see</c><00:09:43.320><c> that</c>

00:09:43.580 --> 00:09:45.799
without<00:09:44.240><c> a</c><00:09:44.480><c> second</c><00:09:44.799><c> thought.</c>

00:09:48.019 --> 00:09:49.200
Obvious,<00:09:48.600><c> isn't</c><00:09:48.799><c> it?</c>

00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:50.500
But<00:09:49.659><c> just</c><00:09:49.879><c> to</c><00:09:50.019><c> underline</c><00:09:50.379><c> it,</c>

00:09:50.500 --> 00:09:51.940
let's<00:09:50.980><c> have</c><00:09:51.139><c> a</c><00:09:51.200><c> look</c><00:09:51.259><c> at</c><00:09:51.419><c> the</c><00:09:51.639><c> event,</c>

00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:55.980
and<00:09:52.480><c> it's</c><00:09:52.840><c> in</c><00:09:54.500><c> the</c><00:09:54.879><c> 22nd</c><00:09:55.659><c> chapter</c>

00:09:59.320 --> 00:10:02.779
It<00:09:59.539><c> really</c><00:09:59.740><c> is</c><00:10:00.000><c> worth</c><00:10:00.519><c> pondering,</c><00:10:01.200><c> is</c><00:10:01.320><c> this?</c>

00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:04.860
While<00:10:04.360><c> you're</c><00:10:04.539><c> finding</c><00:10:04.720><c> it,</c>

00:10:04.860 --> 00:10:06.460
let<00:10:04.940><c> me</c><00:10:05.139><c> remind</c><00:10:05.460><c> you</c><00:10:05.580><c> what</c><00:10:05.740><c> Peter</c><00:10:06.019><c> said.</c>

00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:08.139
The<00:10:06.779><c> end</c><00:10:06.940><c> of</c><00:10:07.100><c> all</c><00:10:07.259><c> things</c><00:10:07.480><c> is</c><00:10:07.639><c> at</c><00:10:07.860><c> hand.</c>

00:10:08.500 --> 00:10:11.000
Be<00:10:08.659><c> ye</c><00:10:08.879><c> therefore</c><00:10:09.159><c> sober,</c><00:10:10.019><c> and</c><00:10:10.159><c> watch</c><00:10:10.399><c> unto</c><00:10:10.639><c> prayer.</c>

00:10:16.259 --> 00:10:17.460
I<00:10:16.440><c> think</c><00:10:16.620><c> we</c><00:10:16.779><c> can</c><00:10:17.019><c> start.</c>

00:10:17.860 --> 00:10:19.519
And<00:10:18.139><c> there</c><00:10:18.320><c> appeared</c><00:10:18.600><c> an</c><00:10:18.840><c> angel</c><00:10:19.039><c> unto</c><00:10:19.320><c> him</c>

00:10:21.539 --> 00:10:24.059
And<00:10:21.759><c> being</c><00:10:21.960><c> in</c><00:10:22.139><c> an</c><00:10:22.340><c> agony,</c><00:10:22.659><c> he</c><00:10:22.879><c> prayed</c><00:10:23.139><c> more</c><00:10:23.559><c> earnestly,</c>

00:10:24.460 --> 00:10:25.960
and<00:10:24.740><c> his</c><00:10:25.019><c> sweat</c><00:10:25.179><c> was,</c><00:10:25.440><c> as</c><00:10:25.639><c> it</c><00:10:25.799><c> were,</c>

00:10:26.139 --> 00:10:28.860
great<00:10:26.299><c> drops</c><00:10:26.559><c> of</c><00:10:26.779><c> blood</c><00:10:27.019><c> falling</c><00:10:27.360><c> down</c><00:10:27.679><c> to</c><00:10:27.860><c> the</c><00:10:28.039><c> ground.</c>

00:10:28.940 --> 00:10:30.440
And<00:10:29.139><c> when</c><00:10:29.279><c> he</c><00:10:29.440><c> rose</c><00:10:29.639><c> up</c><00:10:29.879><c> from</c><00:10:30.120><c> prayer</c>

00:10:30.440 --> 00:10:31.840
and<00:10:30.600><c> was</c><00:10:30.799><c> come</c><00:10:30.899><c> to</c><00:10:31.059><c> his</c><00:10:31.299><c> disciples,</c>

00:10:32.220 --> 00:10:34.039
he<00:10:32.460><c> found</c><00:10:32.700><c> them</c><00:10:33.000><c> sleeping</c><00:10:33.360><c> for</c><00:10:33.659><c> sorrow.</c>

00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:35.419
And<00:10:34.659><c> he</c><00:10:34.759><c> said</c><00:10:34.960><c> unto</c><00:10:35.159><c> them,</c>

00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:36.620
Why<00:10:35.759><c> sleep</c><00:10:36.179><c> ye?</c>

00:10:36.899 --> 00:10:40.700
Rise<00:10:37.379><c> and</c><00:10:37.779><c> pray,</c><00:10:38.679><c> lest</c><00:10:38.799><c> ye</c><00:10:39.019><c> enter</c><00:10:39.200><c> into</c><00:10:39.539><c> temptation.</c>

00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:53.680
And<00:20:51.339><c> the</c><00:20:51.460><c> apostle</c><00:20:51.759><c> says,</c><00:20:52.539><c> be</c><00:20:52.599><c> humble.</c>

00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:57.960

00:21:03.819 --> 00:21:07.119

Every<00:21:20.940><c> day,</c><00:21:21.700><c> not</c><00:21:21.799><c> just</c><00:21:22.019><c> on</c><00:21:22.240><c> Sundays,</c>

00:21:24.119 --> 00:21:26.960

00:21:38.660 --> 00:21:40.920
maybe<00:21:39.140><c> humility</c><00:21:39.619><c> is</c><00:21:39.900><c> a</c><00:21:39.980><c> little</c><00:21:40.099><c> more</c><00:21:40.420><c> elusive</c>

00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:43.359
than<00:21:41.220><c> we</c><00:21:41.819><c> originally</c><00:21:42.359><c> thought.</c>

00:21:44.660 --> 00:21:47.220
We<00:21:44.680><c> are</c><00:21:45.000><c> servants,</c><00:21:45.940><c> brethren</c><00:21:46.099><c> and</c><00:21:46.339><c> sisters.</c>

00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:50.259
And<00:21:47.740><c> you</c><00:21:47.880><c> can</c><00:21:48.140><c> just</c><00:21:48.380><c> imagine,</c><00:21:49.660><c> you</c><00:21:49.900><c> see,</c>

00:21:50.619 --> 00:21:51.900
this<00:21:50.819><c> is</c><00:21:51.079><c> a</c><00:21:51.079><c> bit</c><00:21:51.319><c> off</c><00:21:51.519><c> the</c><00:21:51.619><c> subject,</c>

00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:53.980
but<00:21:52.240><c> I</c><00:21:52.720><c> really</c><00:21:52.960><c> do</c><00:21:53.119><c> want</c><00:21:53.259><c> to</c><00:21:53.359><c> go</c><00:21:53.480><c> down</c><00:21:53.660><c> this</c><00:21:53.839><c> road.</c>

00:21:54.079 --> 00:21:55.920
I'll<00:21:54.299><c> just</c><00:21:54.460><c> only</c><00:21:54.599><c> be</c><00:21:54.740><c> there</c><00:21:54.839><c> for</c><00:21:55.039><c> a</c><00:21:55.140><c> second.</c>

00:21:56.640 --> 00:21:59.180
I<00:21:56.880><c> think</c><00:21:57.059><c> when</c><00:21:57.380><c> the</c><00:21:57.519><c> Lord</c><00:21:57.759><c> Jesus</c><00:21:58.180><c> Christ</c><00:21:58.460><c> was</c><00:21:58.700><c> here,</c>

00:21:59.619 --> 00:22:01.359
the<00:21:59.839><c> disciples</c><00:22:00.240><c> were</c><00:22:00.539><c> convinced</c>

00:22:01.359 --> 00:22:04.640
that<00:22:01.720><c> the</c><00:22:01.940><c> kingdom</c><00:22:02.160><c> was</c><00:22:02.400><c> going</c><00:22:02.519><c> to</c><00:22:02.660><c> be</c><00:22:02.859><c> established</c><00:22:03.220><c> very</c><00:22:03.700><c> quickly.</c>

00:22:05.680 --> 00:22:09.200
I<00:22:06.279><c> think</c><00:22:06.880><c> if</c><00:22:07.400><c> we</c><00:22:07.579><c> had</c><00:22:07.779><c> time</c><00:22:08.000><c> to</c><00:22:08.119><c> go</c><00:22:08.319><c> down</c><00:22:08.500><c> this</c><00:22:08.640><c> road</c><00:22:08.799><c> properly,</c>

00:22:09.619 --> 00:22:11.559
there's<00:22:09.779><c> good</c><00:22:10.059><c> Bible</c><00:22:10.339><c> evidence</c><00:22:10.819><c> for</c><00:22:11.039><c> the</c><00:22:11.200><c> fact</c>

00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:15.380
that<00:22:12.220><c> Jesus</c><00:22:12.880><c> almost</c><00:22:14.279><c> gave</c><00:22:14.579><c> the</c><00:22:14.900><c> impression</c>

00:22:15.380 --> 00:22:17.720
that<00:22:15.619><c> the</c><00:22:15.819><c> kingdom</c><00:22:16.039><c> was</c><00:22:16.279><c> coming</c><00:22:16.500><c> quickly.</c>

00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:21.420
So<00:22:19.000><c> that</c><00:22:19.180><c> when</c><00:22:19.700><c> they</c><00:22:20.299><c> had</c><00:22:20.759><c> the</c><00:22:21.079><c> feast,</c>

00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:27.539

00:22:37.779 --> 00:22:40.539

You<00:24:12.400><c> know,</c><00:24:12.839><c> conversation</c><00:24:13.119><c> doesn't</c><00:24:13.420><c> mean</c><00:24:13.920><c> verbals,</c>

00:24:19.660 --> 00:24:21.500
Now,<00:24:19.839><c> what</c><00:24:19.980><c> is</c><00:24:20.180><c> Peter</c><00:24:20.460><c> thinking</c><00:24:20.859><c> about</c><00:24:21.220><c> here?</c>

Well,<00:24:26.220><c> it</c><00:24:26.440><c> is</c><00:24:26.460><c> when</c><00:24:26.640><c> he</c><00:24:26.680><c> was</c><00:24:26.819><c> on</c><00:24:27.039><c> the</c><00:24:27.180><c> lake</c><00:24:27.400><c> with</c><00:24:27.599><c> the</c><00:24:27.700><c> Lord</c>

00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:39.279
That<00:24:36.819><c> is</c><00:24:36.839><c> how</c><00:24:37.140><c> tired</c><00:24:37.599><c> Jesus</c><00:24:38.019><c> was.</c>

00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:43.220
If<00:24:41.500><c> you</c><00:24:41.680><c> were</c><00:24:41.940><c> tired,</c><00:24:42.339><c> brethren</c><00:24:42.579><c> and</c><00:24:42.819><c> sisters,</c>

00:24:49.819 --> 00:24:53.039
I<00:24:50.079><c> shouldn't</c><00:24:50.339><c> think</c><00:24:50.559><c> you</c><00:24:50.660><c> would</c><00:24:50.759><c> stay</c><00:24:50.980><c> asleep</c><00:24:51.339><c> for</c><00:24:51.920><c> very</c><00:24:52.220><c> long.</c>

But<00:24:53.500><c> the</c><00:24:53.660><c> Lord</c><00:24:53.839><c> did,</c>

00:24:55.180 --> 00:24:56.779

00:24:58.819 --> 00:25:00.619
And<00:24:59.079><c> he</c><00:24:59.200><c> wakes</c><00:24:59.400><c> up,</c><00:24:59.680><c> and</c><00:24:59.799><c> you</c><00:24:59.900><c> can</c><00:25:00.039><c> almost</c><00:25:00.279><c> see</c><00:25:00.460><c> him,</c>

00:25:00.619 --> 00:25:02.039
oh,<00:25:01.240><c> wherefore</c><00:25:01.579><c> did</c><00:25:01.779><c> you</c><00:25:01.920><c> do?</c>

00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:04.880
How<00:25:02.799><c> could</c><00:25:02.980><c> it</c><00:25:03.119><c> go</c><00:25:03.319><c> under</c><00:25:03.500><c> with</c><00:25:03.700><c> me</c><00:25:03.880><c> on</c><00:25:04.160><c> board?</c>

It<00:25:06.279><c> couldn't.</c>

00:25:07.700 --> 00:25:10.559
But<00:25:07.980><c> for</c><00:25:08.240><c> their</c><00:25:08.559><c> sake</c><00:25:08.819><c> he</c><00:25:09.019><c> rebukes</c><00:25:09.440><c> the</c><00:25:09.619><c> wind</c><00:25:09.839><c> and</c><00:25:10.000><c> the</c><00:25:10.160><c> waves,</c>

00:31:25.660 --> 00:31:27.220
Let<00:31:25.819><c> me</c><00:31:25.940><c> tell</c><00:31:26.099><c> you</c><00:31:26.220><c> this.</c>

00:31:27.920 --> 00:31:30.140
We've<00:31:28.319><c> been</c><00:31:28.460><c> fishing</c><00:31:28.680><c> all</c><00:31:28.940><c> night</c><00:31:29.079><c> in</c><00:31:29.220><c> the</c><00:31:29.359><c> dark</c><00:31:29.539><c> and</c><00:31:29.740><c> caught</c><00:31:29.859><c> nothing.</c>

00:31:30.319 --> 00:31:33.000
You're<00:31:30.539><c> telling</c><00:31:30.720><c> us</c><00:31:30.920><c> to</c><00:31:31.000><c> go</c><00:31:31.140><c> out</c><00:31:31.339><c> into</c><00:31:31.559><c> the</c><00:31:31.779><c> shadows</c><00:31:32.220><c> in</c><00:31:32.660><c> daylight</c>

nevertheless,<00:31:42.160><c> at</c><00:31:42.400><c> thy</c><00:31:42.740><c> command,</c><00:31:43.900><c> I</c><00:31:44.019><c> will</c><00:31:44.240><c> do</c><00:31:44.460><c> it.</c>

00:31:45.240 --> 00:31:47.119
And<00:31:45.440><c> that's</c><00:31:45.660><c> why</c><00:31:45.859><c> we</c><00:31:46.019><c> love</c><00:31:46.200><c> him.</c>

00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:50.900

00:31:59.720 --> 00:32:04.400
You're<00:32:00.319><c> a</c><00:32:00.519><c> non</c><00:32:00.859><c>-starter</c><00:32:01.140><c> compared</c><00:32:01.559><c> with</c><00:32:01.720><c> what</c><00:32:01.920><c> the</c><00:32:01.960><c> Lord</c><00:32:02.200><c> Jesus</c><00:32:02.579><c> Christ</c><00:32:02.859><c> knows</c><00:32:03.099><c> about</c><00:32:03.400><c> it.</c>

00:32:04.859 --> 00:32:07.519
And<00:32:05.099><c> if</c><00:32:05.200><c> you</c><00:32:05.359><c> question</c><00:32:05.640><c> the</c><00:32:05.799><c> validity</c><00:32:06.180><c> of</c><00:32:06.319><c> what</c><00:32:06.480><c> I'm</c><00:32:06.680><c> saying,</c>

00:32:07.660 --> 00:32:11.900

00:32:13.160 --> 00:32:16.960
But<00:32:13.200><c> because</c><00:32:14.220><c> he</c><00:32:14.579><c> knew</c><00:32:14.599><c> us</c><00:32:15.079><c> from</c><00:32:15.339><c> before</c><00:32:15.740><c> our</c><00:32:16.079><c> birth,</c>

00:32:16.980 --> 00:32:20.799
this<00:32:17.279><c> demands</c><00:32:17.920><c> three</c><00:32:18.480><c> things</c><00:32:18.880><c> from</c><00:32:19.079><c> us,</c><00:32:19.420><c> as</c><00:32:19.640><c> Peter</c><00:32:19.799><c> says</c><00:32:20.220><c> in</c>

of<00:32:26.799><c> Jesus.</c>

00:32:27.160 --> 00:32:28.839
That's<00:32:27.200><c> a</c><00:32:27.299><c> strange</c><00:32:27.599><c> expression.</c>

00:32:29.359 --> 00:32:32.200
Sanctification<00:32:30.039><c> means</c><00:32:30.660><c> to</c><00:32:30.839><c> be</c><00:32:30.960><c> set</c><00:32:31.220><c> apart.</c>

00:32:58.200 --> 00:32:59.819
You<00:32:58.259><c> know,</c><00:32:58.740><c> under</c><00:32:58.980><c> the</c><00:32:59.099><c> Levitical</c><00:32:59.559><c> law,</c>

00:33:03.940 --> 00:33:07.559
It<00:33:04.039><c> meant</c><00:33:04.099><c> a</c><00:33:04.220><c> lot</c><00:33:04.319><c> to</c><00:33:04.500><c> the</c><00:33:04.680><c> Jews</c><00:33:04.900><c> to</c><00:33:05.400><c> be</c><00:33:05.680><c> sprinkled</c><00:33:06.339><c> with</c><00:33:06.559><c> blood.</c>

00:34:17.420 --> 00:34:18.780

00:34:18.960 --> 00:34:21.880
There<00:34:19.079><c> is</c><00:34:19.440><c> nothing</c><00:34:19.739><c> more</c><00:34:20.139><c> valuable</c><00:34:20.519><c> in</c><00:34:20.699><c> the</c><00:34:20.880><c> world</c><00:34:21.039><c> than</c><00:34:21.219><c> gold.</c>

00:34:21.960 --> 00:34:22.900
And<00:34:22.460><c> it's</c><00:34:22.659><c> going.</c>

00:34:22.900 --> 00:34:26.619
Peter<00:34:23.619><c> says</c><00:34:23.920><c> that</c><00:34:24.239><c> pile</c><00:34:24.480><c> of</c><00:34:24.719><c> gold</c><00:34:25.039><c> eventually</c><00:34:25.739><c> is</c><00:34:26.360><c> going.</c>

00:34:26.900 --> 00:34:28.139
It's<00:34:27.079><c> going</c><00:34:27.239><c> for</c><00:34:27.420><c> two</c><00:34:27.659><c> reasons.</c>

00:34:28.380 --> 00:34:32.199
One,<00:34:28.739><c> because</c><00:34:28.860><c> you</c><00:34:29.019><c> can</c><00:34:29.340><c> see</c><00:34:29.519><c> it</c><00:34:29.760><c> and</c><00:34:29.940><c> eventually</c><00:34:30.539><c> it</c><00:34:31.000><c> will</c><00:34:31.239><c> go.</c>

00:34:32.239 --> 00:34:35.739
And<00:34:32.639><c> secondly,</c><00:34:33.420><c> it's</c><00:34:33.739><c> going</c><00:34:33.940><c> because</c><00:34:34.260><c> it</c><00:34:34.539><c> can't</c><00:34:35.099><c> purchase</c>

00:34:35.739 --> 00:34:37.340

00:34:38.039 --> 00:34:42.659
But<00:34:38.179><c> the</c><00:34:38.340><c> blood</c><00:34:38.539><c> of</c><00:34:38.760><c> Jesus</c><00:34:39.159><c> Christ,</c><00:34:40.880><c> which</c><00:34:41.059><c> you</c><00:34:41.280><c> cannot</c><00:34:41.599><c> see,</c>

00:34:44.079 --> 00:34:48.340
Fire<00:34:44.340><c> will</c><00:34:44.960><c> consume</c><00:34:45.460><c> gold,</c><00:34:46.460><c> but</c><00:34:46.659><c> fire</c><00:34:47.059><c> will</c><00:34:47.400><c> refine</c><00:34:47.880><c> faith.</c>

00:34:48.739 --> 00:34:51.019
And<00:34:48.820><c> that's</c><00:34:49.960><c> what</c><00:34:50.219><c> Peter</c><00:34:50.519><c> is</c><00:34:50.820><c> saying.</c>

00:34:51.019 --> 00:34:53.320
Gold,<00:34:51.699><c> you</c><00:34:51.820><c> can</c><00:34:52.099><c> see</c><00:34:52.219><c> the</c><00:34:52.360><c> world</c><00:34:52.539><c> prizes</c><00:34:52.900><c> it,</c>

but<00:34:55.360><c> you</c><00:34:55.539><c> will</c><00:34:55.800><c> rejoice</c><00:34:56.280><c> in</c><00:34:56.780><c> his</c><00:34:57.039><c> presence.</c>

00:34:57.639 --> 00:35:00.420

where<00:36:22.719><c> God</c><00:36:23.000><c> said</c><00:36:23.239><c> to</c><00:36:23.420><c> him,</c><00:36:23.639><c> don't</c><00:36:23.639><c> call</c><00:36:23.900><c> anything</c><00:36:25.039><c> unclean.</c>

00:36:26.380 --> 00:36:28.599
You<00:36:26.539><c> remember</c><00:36:26.780><c> the</c><00:36:26.980><c> great</c><00:36:27.199><c> sheet</c><00:36:27.340><c> that</c><00:36:27.460><c> was</c><00:36:27.579><c> let</c><00:36:27.739><c> down</c><00:36:27.940><c> by</c><00:36:28.139><c> the</c><00:36:28.320><c> corners</c>

00:36:28.599 --> 00:36:31.059
on<00:36:29.019><c> three</c><00:36:29.179><c> occasions</c><00:36:29.699><c> with</c><00:36:30.099><c> all</c><00:36:30.300><c> unclean</c><00:36:30.699><c> beasts</c>

00:36:31.059 --> 00:36:33.000

00:36:34.940 --> 00:36:36.800
And<00:36:35.099><c> Peter</c><00:36:35.260><c> says,</c><00:36:35.719><c> I'm</c><00:36:35.760><c> not</c><00:36:35.920><c> going</c><00:36:36.059><c> to</c><00:36:36.119><c> eat</c><00:36:36.199><c> any</c><00:36:36.400><c> of</c><00:36:36.500><c> that,</c><00:36:36.739><c> Lord,</c>

00:36:36.860 --> 00:36:38.539
although<00:36:37.039><c> the</c><00:36:37.159><c> Lord</c><00:36:37.340><c> said</c><00:36:37.500><c> to</c><00:36:37.659><c> rise,</c><00:36:37.860><c> Peter,</c><00:36:38.019><c> kill</c><00:36:38.219><c> and</c><00:36:38.380><c> eat.</c>

00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:40.219
He<00:36:38.860><c> said,</c><00:36:39.000><c> I</c><00:36:39.119><c> can't,</c><00:36:39.480><c> I've</c><00:36:39.539><c> never</c><00:36:39.739><c> eaten</c><00:36:39.920><c> anything</c>

00:36:40.219 --> 00:36:42.139
that's<00:36:40.420><c> unclean</c><00:36:40.719><c> in</c><00:36:40.820><c> my</c><00:36:40.940><c> whole</c><00:36:41.139><c> life.</c>

00:36:42.820 --> 00:36:44.880
And<00:36:42.920><c> now</c><00:36:43.000><c> he's</c><00:36:43.219><c> quoting</c><00:36:43.440><c> that</c><00:36:43.619><c> very</c><00:36:43.840><c> scripture.</c>

00:36:46.099 --> 00:36:47.380
It<00:36:46.300><c> seems</c><00:36:46.519><c> as</c><00:36:46.659><c> though</c><00:36:46.719><c> he's</c><00:36:46.880><c> made</c><00:36:47.039><c> a</c><00:36:47.139><c> mistake,</c>

00:36:47.380 --> 00:36:48.699

00:36:48.960 --> 00:36:52.800
He's<00:36:49.400><c> elevating</c><00:36:50.059><c> the</c><00:36:50.320><c> scripture</c><00:36:50.699><c> to</c><00:36:51.159><c> show</c><00:36:51.300><c> us</c><00:36:51.500><c> that</c><00:36:51.800><c> nothing,</c>

00:37:05.179 --> 00:37:07.139
And<00:37:05.320><c> the</c><00:37:05.380><c> reason</c><00:37:05.579><c> why</c><00:37:05.719><c> that</c><00:37:05.900><c> isn't</c><00:37:06.219><c> forgivable</c>

00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:09.219

Holy<00:37:09.380><c> Spirit</c>

00:37:09.639 --> 00:37:11.400
wouldn't<00:37:09.880><c> care</c><00:37:10.119><c> whether</c><00:37:10.260><c> it</c><00:37:10.400><c> was</c><00:37:10.559><c> forgiven</c><00:37:10.719><c> or</c><00:37:10.940><c> not,</c>

and<00:37:11.619><c> so</c><00:37:11.760><c> therefore</c><00:37:12.000><c> it</c><00:37:12.159><c> isn't.</c>

00:37:12.539 --> 00:37:14.380

00:37:33.260 --> 00:37:35.579
God<00:37:33.480><c> said,</c><00:37:33.659><c> I</c><00:37:33.719><c> want</c><00:37:33.940><c> you</c><00:37:34.099><c> to</c><00:37:34.320><c> leave</c><00:37:34.820><c> Egypt</c>

00:37:38.739 --> 00:37:47.880
But<00:37:39.440><c> I'm</c><00:37:41.320><c> sure</c><00:37:41.860><c> the</c><00:37:45.340><c> Father</c><00:37:45.599><c> is</c><00:37:45.739><c> very</c><00:37:46.000><c> patient</c><00:37:46.400><c> with</c><00:37:46.579><c> his</c><00:37:46.800><c> people.</c>

00:37:49.239 --> 00:37:50.900
He<00:37:49.340><c> didn't</c><00:37:49.599><c> bring</c><00:37:49.840><c> them</c><00:37:49.980><c> out</c><00:37:50.159><c> of</c><00:37:50.320><c> Egypt</c><00:37:50.579><c> and</c><00:37:50.739><c> say,</c>

00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:54.639
Now<00:37:52.159><c> it's</c><00:37:52.340><c> about</c><00:37:52.639><c> two</c><00:37:52.820><c> and</c><00:37:52.980><c> a</c><00:37:53.000><c> half</c><00:37:53.199><c> months</c><00:37:53.659><c> hard</c><00:37:54.159><c> march</c>

00:37:56.139 --> 00:37:57.500
You<00:37:56.260><c> come</c><00:37:56.440><c> out</c><00:37:56.960><c> of</c><00:37:57.139><c> Egypt,</c>

00:38:01.139 --> 00:38:02.280

00:38:02.340 --> 00:38:04.579

00:38:04.940 --> 00:38:06.960
Watch<00:38:05.239><c> how</c><00:38:05.500><c> the</c><00:38:05.719><c> Father</c><00:38:05.980><c> prepares</c><00:38:06.500><c> them.</c>

00:38:12.019 --> 00:38:14.099
Now<00:38:12.219><c> if</c><00:38:12.340><c> you'd</c><00:38:12.599><c> given</c><00:38:12.780><c> the</c><00:38:13.199><c> Israelite</c><00:38:13.659><c> leaders,</c>

00:38:20.119 --> 00:38:21.400
They<00:38:20.280><c> would</c><00:38:20.460><c> have</c><00:38:20.579><c> said</c><00:38:20.719><c> plenty</c><00:38:21.019><c> of</c><00:38:21.219><c> rest,</c>

00:38:25.519 --> 00:38:27.119
That's<00:38:25.780><c> not</c><00:38:25.920><c> God's</c><00:38:26.260><c> way.</c>

00:38:28.059 --> 00:38:29.900

00:38:36.159 --> 00:38:38.239
but<00:38:36.460><c> they</c><00:38:36.599><c> have</c><00:38:36.760><c> to</c><00:38:36.840><c> get</c><00:38:36.940><c> their</c><00:38:37.119><c> own</c><00:38:37.440><c> straw</c><00:38:37.739><c> and</c><00:38:38.000><c> stubble</c>

00:38:38.239 --> 00:38:39.639
as<00:38:38.380><c> well</c><00:38:38.500><c> with</c><00:38:38.619><c> which</c><00:38:38.800><c> to</c><00:38:39.019><c> bind</c><00:38:39.099><c> them</c><00:38:39.300><c> together</c>

00:38:43.320 --> 00:38:45.860
And<00:38:43.760><c> so</c><00:38:43.960><c> already</c><00:38:44.300><c> they're</c><00:38:44.460><c> being</c><00:38:44.739><c> prepared.</c>

00:38:46.019 --> 00:38:48.139
And<00:38:46.159><c> God</c><00:38:46.300><c> says,</c><00:38:46.579><c> I'll</c><00:38:46.739><c> make</c><00:38:46.780><c> you</c><00:38:47.019><c> strong.</c>

00:38:48.739 --> 00:38:50.659
That's<00:38:49.039><c> the</c><00:38:49.059><c> way</c><00:38:49.179><c> I'll</c><00:38:49.400><c> do</c><00:38:49.539><c> it.</c>

00:38:50.780 --> 00:38:54.219
I<00:38:50.980><c> don't</c><00:38:51.440><c> expect</c><00:38:51.760><c> you</c><00:38:51.960><c> to</c><00:38:52.159><c> suddenly</c><00:38:52.500><c> develop</c><00:38:52.880><c> faith</c><00:38:53.139><c> overnight.</c>

00:38:54.239 --> 00:38:57.159
You<00:38:54.300><c> don't</c><00:38:54.460><c> go</c><00:38:54.739><c> to</c><00:38:54.900><c> bed</c><00:38:55.699><c> faithless</c><00:38:56.179><c> and</c><00:38:56.340><c> wake</c><00:38:56.519><c> up</c><00:38:56.780><c> faithful.</c>

00:38:57.360 --> 00:38:59.119
Would<00:38:57.440><c> God</c><00:38:57.599><c> you</c><00:38:57.780><c> could,</c><00:38:57.960><c> you</c><00:38:58.159><c> can't.</c>

00:38:59.420 --> 00:39:01.860
And<00:38:59.639><c> so</c><00:38:59.760><c> just</c><00:39:00.000><c> watch</c><00:39:00.159><c> these</c><00:39:00.480><c> plagues</c><00:39:00.840><c> wrought</c><00:39:01.139><c> out</c><00:39:01.360><c> on</c><00:39:01.539><c> Egypt</c>

00:39:01.860 --> 00:39:03.900
and<00:39:02.139><c> all</c><00:39:02.380><c> ten</c><00:39:02.539><c> of</c><00:39:02.719><c> them</c><00:39:02.860><c> destroy</c><00:39:03.300><c> the</c><00:39:03.519><c> land.</c>

00:39:03.900 --> 00:39:06.820
And<00:39:04.639><c> God</c><00:39:04.820><c> brings</c><00:39:05.099><c> them</c><00:39:05.219><c> into</c><00:39:05.440><c> the</c><00:39:05.579><c> wilderness</c><00:39:05.900><c> and</c><00:39:06.099><c> says,</c>

00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:09.539
now<00:39:07.780><c> what's</c><00:39:08.199><c> the</c><00:39:08.420><c> water</c><00:39:08.719><c> part?</c>

00:39:09.739 --> 00:39:12.360
And<00:39:09.880><c> they</c><00:39:10.019><c> say</c><00:39:10.099><c> it's</c><00:39:10.239><c> very</c><00:39:10.579><c> hot</c><00:39:10.699><c> and</c><00:39:10.860><c> I'll</c><00:39:10.980><c> put</c><00:39:11.119><c> a</c><00:39:11.320><c> cloud</c><00:39:11.539><c> canopy</c><00:39:11.880><c> for</c><00:39:12.179><c> you.</c>

00:39:12.500 --> 00:39:13.559
We<00:39:12.639><c> don't</c><00:39:12.739><c> know</c><00:39:12.860><c> which</c><00:39:12.980><c> way</c><00:39:13.139><c> to</c><00:39:13.340><c> go.</c>

00:39:13.800 --> 00:39:15.099
The<00:39:13.960><c> light</c><00:39:14.239><c> will</c><00:39:14.460><c> lead</c><00:39:14.719><c> you.</c>

00:39:15.500 --> 00:39:17.639
It's<00:39:15.780><c> baking</c><00:39:16.039><c> hot,</c><00:39:16.360><c> I'll</c><00:39:16.599><c> make</c><00:39:16.679><c> it</c><00:39:16.920><c> rain</c><00:39:17.099><c> on</c><00:39:17.300><c> you.</c>

00:39:17.739 --> 00:39:19.500
And<00:39:17.880><c> the</c><00:39:18.019><c> psalm</c><00:39:18.260><c> says</c><00:39:18.420><c> it</c><00:39:18.639><c> did.</c>

00:39:20.280 --> 00:39:22.320
We're<00:39:20.599><c> starving,</c><00:39:20.980><c> I'll</c><00:39:21.199><c> give</c><00:39:21.300><c> you</c><00:39:21.440><c> bread.</c>

00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:25.340
We<00:39:23.099><c> love</c><00:39:23.300><c> meat,</c><00:39:23.719><c> I'll</c><00:39:23.940><c> give</c><00:39:24.079><c> you</c><00:39:24.260><c> quails.</c>

00:39:25.820 --> 00:39:28.199
We've<00:39:26.239><c> no</c><00:39:26.420><c> water,</c><00:39:26.940><c> watch</c><00:39:27.099><c> the</c><00:39:27.280><c> water</c><00:39:27.460><c> come</c><00:39:27.599><c> out</c><00:39:27.780><c> of</c><00:39:27.900><c> the</c><00:39:28.019><c> rock.</c>

00:39:28.500 --> 00:39:30.920
Do<00:39:28.679><c> you</c><00:39:28.739><c> see</c><00:39:28.840><c> how</c><00:39:29.179><c> God's</c><00:39:29.739><c> teaching</c><00:39:29.980><c> them</c><00:39:30.139><c> and</c><00:39:30.260><c> leading</c><00:39:30.599><c> them?</c>

00:39:30.920 --> 00:39:34.860
And<00:39:31.420><c> then</c><00:39:32.079><c> he</c><00:39:32.599><c> says,</c><00:39:32.980><c> now</c><00:39:33.059><c> you've</c><00:39:33.360><c> seen</c><00:39:33.579><c> all</c><00:39:33.920><c> that</c><00:39:34.280><c> go</c><00:39:34.619><c> into</c>

00:39:34.860 --> 00:39:35.340
the<00:39:35.059><c> land</c>

00:39:35.340 --> 00:39:36.420
and<00:39:35.639><c> they</c><00:39:35.860><c> say</c><00:39:36.039><c> no.</c>

00:39:36.599 --> 00:39:38.699
And<00:39:36.760><c> they</c><00:39:36.900><c> could</c><00:39:37.159><c> not</c><00:39:37.360><c> enter</c><00:39:37.599><c> in</c><00:39:37.780><c> because</c><00:39:38.039><c> of</c><00:39:38.239><c> unbelief.</c>

00:39:38.900 --> 00:39:40.380
Now<00:39:39.039><c> that's</c><00:39:39.239><c> the</c><00:39:39.320><c> way</c><00:39:39.420><c> the</c><00:39:39.599><c> Father's</c><00:39:40.000><c> treating</c><00:39:40.159><c> us,</c>

00:39:41.480 --> 00:39:45.000
In<00:39:41.719><c> our</c><00:39:42.039><c> lives</c><00:39:42.380><c> we</c><00:39:43.400><c> have</c><00:39:43.679><c> ample</c><00:39:44.139><c> demonstration</c>

00:39:45.000 --> 00:39:47.420

00:39:47.639 --> 00:39:48.539
It<00:39:47.900><c> should</c><00:39:48.059><c> be</c><00:39:48.360><c> growing.</c>

00:39:49.039 --> 00:39:51.199
We<00:39:49.179><c> ask</c><00:39:49.400><c> ourselves,</c><00:39:50.260><c> is</c><00:39:50.320><c> it?</c>

00:39:51.280 --> 00:39:55.320
And<00:39:51.619><c> walk</c><00:39:51.760><c> to</c><00:39:51.940><c> the</c><00:39:52.099><c> kingdom</c><00:39:52.400><c> demands</c><00:39:53.400><c> self</c><00:39:54.000><c>-discipline.</c>

00:40:17.579 --> 00:40:19.460
It's<00:40:17.940><c> hard,</c><00:40:18.539><c> but</c><00:40:18.679><c> you</c><00:40:18.820><c> must</c><00:40:19.019><c> do</c><00:40:19.199><c> it.</c>

00:40:19.480 --> 00:40:21.500
You<00:40:19.579><c> must</c><00:40:19.840><c> submit</c><00:40:20.260><c> to</c><00:40:20.460><c> every</c><00:40:20.659><c> ordinance</c><00:40:21.059><c> of</c><00:40:21.340><c> man.</c>

00:40:21.679 --> 00:40:23.599
You<00:40:21.780><c> don't</c><00:40:21.900><c> want</c><00:40:22.039><c> to</c><00:40:22.159><c> pay</c><00:40:22.360><c> taxes,</c><00:40:22.840><c> I</c><00:40:23.019><c> know</c><00:40:23.199><c> that.</c>

00:40:23.599 --> 00:40:26.239
Do<00:40:24.019><c> you</c><00:40:25.340><c> fudge</c><00:40:25.659><c> your</c><00:40:25.820><c> way</c><00:40:25.960><c> round</c>

or<00:45:36.840><c> how</c><00:45:37.039><c> you</c><00:45:37.280><c> appear</c><00:45:37.500><c> to</c><00:45:37.699><c> Him?</c>

00:45:38.300 --> 00:45:39.840
Before<00:45:38.559><c> which</c><00:45:38.800><c> do</c><00:45:38.980><c> you</c><00:45:39.099><c> spend</c><00:45:39.300><c> the</c><00:45:39.440><c> most</c><00:45:39.659><c> time,</c>

00:45:39.860 --> 00:45:42.000

00:45:42.320 --> 00:45:43.960
Because<00:45:42.699><c> the</c><00:45:42.960><c> mirror</c><00:45:43.139><c> will</c><00:45:43.500><c> change</c><00:45:43.840><c> you.</c>

00:45:44.000 --> 00:45:47.019
It<00:45:44.039><c> will</c><00:45:44.300><c> delay</c><00:45:44.639><c> the</c><00:45:44.940><c> course</c><00:45:45.119><c> of</c><00:45:45.340><c> ageing</c><00:45:45.579><c> for</c><00:45:45.820><c> a</c><00:45:46.000><c> while,</c>

00:45:47.519 --> 00:45:49.320
but<00:45:47.760><c> it</c><00:45:47.820><c> won't</c><00:45:48.039><c> stop</c><00:45:48.300><c> it.</c>

00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:54.320
And<00:45:49.940><c> the</c><00:45:50.519><c> older</c><00:45:50.820><c> you</c><00:45:51.019><c> get,</c><00:45:52.000><c> the</c><00:45:52.280><c> worse</c><00:45:52.599><c> you</c><00:45:52.840><c> become,</c>

the<00:45:54.639><c> less</c><00:45:54.900><c> attractive...</c>

00:45:55.119 --> 00:45:56.579
Oh,<00:45:55.480><c> that</c><00:45:55.679><c> needs</c><00:45:55.960><c> qualification.</c>

00:45:56.579 --> 00:45:59.039
The<00:45:57.039><c> less</c><00:45:57.300><c> attractive</c><00:45:57.820><c> you</c><00:45:58.099><c> become.</c>

00:45:59.239 --> 00:46:02.059
The<00:45:59.420><c> sisters</c><00:45:59.739><c> who</c><00:46:00.599><c> are</c><00:46:00.800><c> eighty</c><00:46:01.139><c> years</c><00:46:01.619><c> old,</c>

00:46:02.420 --> 00:46:04.300
you're<00:46:02.619><c> a</c><00:46:02.739><c> bit</c><00:46:02.880><c> different</c><00:46:03.300><c> from</c><00:46:03.519><c> what</c><00:46:03.679><c> you</c><00:46:03.880><c> were</c><00:46:04.000><c> when</c><00:46:04.159><c> you</c>

00:46:04.300 --> 00:46:05.360
were<00:46:04.440><c> fifteen.</c>

00:46:05.739 --> 00:46:08.039
They'll<00:46:06.179><c> tell</c><00:46:06.360><c> you</c><00:46:06.500><c> that.</c><00:46:06.900><c> They'll</c><00:46:07.099><c> tell</c><00:46:07.300><c> you</c><00:46:07.480><c> that.</c>

00:46:08.380 --> 00:46:10.480
I'm<00:46:08.500><c> not</c><00:46:08.599><c> making</c><00:46:08.880><c> it</c><00:46:09.039><c> up,</c><00:46:09.139><c> it's</c><00:46:09.320><c> true.</c>

00:46:12.519 --> 00:46:15.059
But<00:46:12.820><c> how</c><00:46:13.159><c> about</c><00:46:13.480><c> the</c><00:46:13.719><c> things</c><00:46:13.940><c> of</c><00:46:14.260><c> God?</c>

00:46:15.460 --> 00:46:18.260
How<00:46:15.659><c> did</c><00:46:15.880><c> you</c><00:46:15.940><c> look</c><00:46:16.159><c> to</c><00:46:16.380><c> God,</c><00:46:16.619><c> sisters,</c><00:46:17.019><c> when</c><00:46:17.199><c> you</c><00:46:17.380><c> were</c><00:46:17.539><c> fifteen,</c>

00:46:18.840 --> 00:46:21.599
compared<00:46:19.159><c> with</c><00:46:19.340><c> how</c><00:46:19.500><c> you</c><00:46:19.659><c> look</c><00:46:19.800><c> to</c><00:46:19.940><c> Him</c><00:46:20.139><c> now</c><00:46:20.360><c> when</c><00:46:20.500><c> you're</c><00:46:20.760><c> eighty?</c>

00:46:22.300 --> 00:46:23.920
Do<00:46:22.559><c> you</c><00:46:22.699><c> see</c><00:46:22.800><c> what's</c><00:46:23.179><c> happened?</c>

00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:29.739
The<00:46:24.880><c> world</c><00:46:25.340><c> cannot</c><00:46:25.800><c> stop</c><00:46:26.159><c> you</c><00:46:26.380><c> ageing,</c><00:46:26.760><c> you</c><00:46:26.860><c> will</c><00:46:27.199><c> deteriorate.</c>

00:46:31.059 --> 00:46:33.420
But<00:46:31.219><c> you</c><00:46:31.340><c> become</c><00:46:31.579><c> more</c><00:46:31.880><c> beautiful</c><00:46:32.239><c> to</c><00:46:32.500><c> God.</c>

00:46:33.619 --> 00:46:35.500
Visible<00:46:34.179><c> and</c><00:46:34.500><c> invisible</c><00:46:35.000><c> things,</c>

00:46:35.820 --> 00:46:37.800
and<00:46:35.980><c> Peter</c><00:46:36.179><c> shouting</c><00:46:36.820><c> it</c><00:46:37.019><c> from</c><00:46:37.199><c> the</c><00:46:37.360><c> housetop.</c>

00:46:38.260 --> 00:46:41.260
And<00:46:38.340><c> then</c><00:46:38.579><c> he</c><00:46:38.780><c> says,</c><00:46:39.280><c> I</c><00:46:39.380><c> just</c><00:46:39.639><c> want</c><00:46:39.800><c> to</c><00:46:40.199><c> underline</c><00:46:40.579><c> this</c><00:46:40.980><c> with</c>

00:46:41.260 --> 00:46:41.960
one<00:46:41.539><c> point.</c>

00:46:42.420 --> 00:46:46.159
I<00:46:42.500><c> want</c><00:46:42.699><c> to</c><00:46:42.900><c> show</c><00:46:43.099><c> you</c><00:46:43.440><c> how</c><00:46:43.760><c> God</c><00:46:44.059><c> not</c><00:46:44.219><c> only</c><00:46:44.559><c> sees</c><00:46:44.860><c> the</c><00:46:45.139><c> invisible,</c>

00:46:46.599 --> 00:46:48.420
but<00:46:46.739><c> He</c><00:46:46.880><c> also</c><00:46:47.159><c> hears</c><00:46:47.400><c> the</c><00:46:47.960><c> inaudible.</c>

00:46:48.599 --> 00:46:50.579
I've<00:46:48.739><c> nearly</c><00:46:49.000><c> finished</c><00:46:49.340><c> and</c><00:46:49.559><c> I'll</c><00:46:49.900><c> prove</c><00:46:50.000><c> that</c><00:46:50.199><c> by</c><00:46:50.320><c> closing</c>

00:46:50.579 --> 00:46:51.159
my<00:46:50.739><c> book.</c>

00:46:51.159 --> 00:47:05.199
And<00:46:52.239><c> Peter</c><00:46:52.460><c> says,</c><00:46:58.059><c> as</c><00:46:58.300><c> Sarah</c><00:46:59.119><c> was</c><00:47:00.900><c> obedient</c><00:47:01.480><c> to</c><00:47:01.800><c> Abraham,</c><00:47:03.480><c> calling</c><00:47:03.820><c> him</c><00:47:04.199><c> Lord.</c>

00:47:05.699 --> 00:47:07.820
Now,<00:47:06.500><c> there</c><00:47:06.679><c> you</c><00:47:06.800><c> are.</c>

00:47:08.099 --> 00:47:10.239
Here's<00:47:08.300><c> a</c><00:47:08.420><c> question</c><00:47:08.699><c> for</c><00:47:08.940><c> you.</c>

00:47:10.619 --> 00:47:14.739
Where<00:47:11.099><c> in</c><00:47:11.320><c> the</c><00:47:11.539><c> scripture</c><00:47:11.940><c> did</c><00:47:12.960><c> Sarah</c><00:47:13.260><c> call</c><00:47:13.539><c> Abraham</c><00:47:13.900><c> Lord?</c>

00:47:15.300 --> 00:47:17.340
Where<00:47:15.699><c> did</c><00:47:15.880><c> she</c><00:47:16.019><c> say</c><00:47:16.219><c> to</c><00:47:16.380><c> him,</c><00:47:16.559><c> Good</c><00:47:16.619><c> morning,</c><00:47:16.880><c> my</c><00:47:17.099><c> Lord,</c>

00:47:17.380 --> 00:47:18.679
or,<00:47:17.800><c> How</c><00:47:17.940><c> are</c><00:47:18.039><c> you,</c><00:47:18.119><c> my</c><00:47:18.320><c> Lord?</c>

00:47:18.679 --> 00:47:21.320
Or,<00:47:19.760><c> What</c><00:47:19.840><c> do</c><00:47:19.900><c> you</c><00:47:19.920><c> want</c><00:47:20.000><c> for</c><00:47:20.159><c> breakfast,</c><00:47:20.559><c> my</c><00:47:20.699><c> Lord?</c>

00:47:21.900 --> 00:47:23.619
And<00:47:22.400><c> the</c><00:47:22.519><c> answer</c><00:47:22.739><c> is</c><00:47:22.920><c> she</c><00:47:23.079><c> didn't.</c>

00:47:23.980 --> 00:47:27.679
You<00:47:24.179><c> can't</c><00:47:24.619><c> show</c><00:47:24.780><c> me</c><00:47:25.000><c> a</c><00:47:25.199><c> scripture</c><00:47:25.659><c> where</c><00:47:27.000><c> Sarah</c><00:47:27.360><c> called</c>

00:47:27.679 --> 00:47:28.280
Abraham<00:47:27.980><c> Lord.</c>

00:47:28.460 --> 00:47:30.719
But<00:47:28.699><c> Peter</c><00:47:28.980><c> says</c><00:47:29.340><c> she</c><00:47:29.659><c> did.</c>

00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:34.119
And<00:47:31.320><c> the</c><00:47:31.420><c> answer</c><00:47:31.780><c> is,</c><00:47:32.019><c> brethren,</c><00:47:32.380><c> oh,</c><00:47:32.760><c> this</c><00:47:33.059><c> is</c><00:47:33.360><c> staggering.</c>

00:47:35.019 --> 00:47:38.440
The<00:47:35.519><c> answer</c><00:47:35.840><c> is</c><00:47:36.360><c> that</c><00:47:37.099><c> God</c><00:47:37.340><c> heard</c><00:47:37.619><c> it</c><00:47:37.840><c> although</c><00:47:38.000><c> she</c><00:47:38.159><c> didn't</c>

00:47:38.440 --> 00:47:40.260
say<00:47:38.739><c> it.</c>

00:47:41.300 --> 00:47:42.920
The<00:47:41.440><c> angel</c><00:47:41.659><c> comes</c><00:47:41.980><c> and</c><00:47:42.199><c> says</c><00:47:42.340><c> to</c><00:47:42.559><c> Abraham,</c>

00:47:43.320 --> 00:47:46.579
Your<00:47:43.420><c> wife</c><00:47:43.679><c> will</c><00:47:43.840><c> have</c><00:47:43.980><c> a</c><00:47:44.159><c> child</c><00:47:44.480><c> at</c><00:47:44.739><c> the</c><00:47:44.880><c> set</c><00:47:45.039><c> time</c><00:47:45.239><c> of</c><00:47:45.420><c> the</c><00:47:45.539><c> year.</c>

00:47:47.219 --> 00:47:49.239
And<00:47:47.760><c> Abraham</c><00:47:48.300><c> laughs.</c>

00:47:49.320 --> 00:47:50.900
This<00:47:49.739><c> is</c><00:47:50.000><c> a</c><00:47:50.000><c> question</c><00:47:50.239><c> for</c><00:47:50.440><c> Bible</c><00:47:50.699><c> class.</c>

00:47:51.119 --> 00:47:53.179
How<00:47:51.320><c> come</c><00:47:51.500><c> Abraham</c><00:47:51.760><c> isn't</c><00:47:52.000><c> criticized</c><00:47:52.460><c> for</c><00:47:52.679><c> laughing</c><00:47:52.900><c> and</c>

00:47:53.179 --> 00:47:54.440
Sarah<00:47:53.360><c> is?</c>

00:47:55.019 --> 00:47:57.300
Abraham<00:47:55.300><c> laughs</c><00:47:55.599><c> and</c><00:47:55.800><c> says,</c><00:47:56.219><c> Shall</c><00:47:56.420><c> a</c><00:47:56.559><c> child</c><00:47:56.719><c> be</c><00:47:56.940><c> born</c><00:47:57.039><c> to</c><00:47:57.139><c> her</c>

00:47:57.300 --> 00:47:58.679
that's<00:47:57.539><c> old?</c>

00:47:58.820 --> 00:48:00.840
And<00:47:59.159><c> Sarah,</c><00:47:59.360><c> standing</c><00:47:59.639><c> outside</c><00:47:59.960><c> the</c><00:48:00.159><c> tent</c><00:48:00.300><c> wall,</c><00:48:00.519><c> which</c><00:48:00.639><c> must</c>

00:48:02.019 --> 00:48:06.440
heard<00:48:02.320><c> this</c><00:48:02.599><c> dialogue</c><00:48:03.119><c> and</c><00:48:04.940><c> she</c><00:48:05.139><c> laughs</c><00:48:05.420><c> and</c><00:48:05.599><c> she</c><00:48:05.900><c> says</c><00:48:06.079><c> in</c>

00:48:06.440 --> 00:48:07.679
