I<00:01:24.079><c> foresaw</c><00:01:24.859><c> the</c><00:01:25.640><c> Lord</c><00:01:25.939><c> always</c><00:01:26.340><c> before</c><00:01:26.680><c> my</c><00:01:27.019><c> face.</c>

00:01:28.459 --> 00:01:30.959
And<00:01:28.659><c> he</c><00:01:28.799><c> continues</c><00:01:29.239><c> this</c><00:01:29.620><c> down</c><00:01:30.019><c> through</c><00:01:30.400><c> the</c><00:01:30.519><c> end</c><00:01:30.659><c> of</c><00:01:30.799><c> verse</c>

And<00:01:47.079><c> Peter</c><00:01:47.400><c> says</c><00:01:47.900><c> that</c><00:01:48.159><c> David</c><00:01:48.920><c> was</c><00:01:49.859><c> not</c><00:01:50.340><c> speaking</c><00:01:50.760><c> about</c><00:01:51.120><c> himself.</c>

00:01:51.900 --> 00:01:54.560
And<00:01:52.079><c> of</c><00:01:52.219><c> course,</c><00:01:52.620><c> he</c><00:01:53.340><c> obviously</c><00:01:53.599><c> was</c><00:01:53.799><c> not</c><00:01:54.000><c> speaking</c><00:01:54.280><c> about</c>

00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:56.439
David<00:01:54.840><c> because</c><00:01:55.420><c> David's</c><00:01:56.000><c> sepulchre,</c><00:01:56.340><c> you</c>

00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:59.200
could<00:01:56.659><c> see</c><00:01:56.799><c> it</c><00:01:56.939><c> over</c><00:01:57.099><c> there</c><00:01:57.260><c> from</c><00:01:57.439><c> where</c><00:01:57.900><c> Peter</c><00:01:58.099><c> was</c><00:01:58.340><c> speaking.</c>

00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.060
David<00:01:59.459><c> was</c><00:01:59.920><c> dead</c><00:02:00.120><c> and</c><00:02:00.359><c> buried</c><00:02:00.560><c> and</c><00:02:00.819><c> his</c><00:02:01.019><c> sepulchre</c><00:02:01.340><c> was</c><00:02:01.540><c> still</c><00:02:01.780><c> there.</c>

00:02:02.299 --> 00:02:04.260
So<00:02:02.560><c> obviously,</c><00:02:02.900><c> he</c><00:02:03.019><c> wasn't</c><00:02:03.299><c> speaking</c><00:02:03.640><c> about</c><00:02:03.840><c> himself.</c>

00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:06.560

00:02:18.939 --> 00:02:22.560

00:02:53.539 --> 00:02:57.560
Well,<00:02:53.919><c> I</c><00:02:54.080><c> think</c><00:02:54.280><c> this</c><00:02:54.539><c> is</c><00:02:54.840><c> the</c><00:02:55.159><c> first</c><00:02:55.500><c> criteria</c><00:02:56.139><c> we</c><00:02:56.379><c> need</c><00:02:56.639><c> to</c>

00:03:02.300 --> 00:03:07.080

00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:20.879
Sometimes<00:03:16.580><c> it</c><00:03:16.759><c> will</c><00:03:16.939><c> be</c><00:03:17.099><c> an</c><00:03:17.280><c> allusion</c><00:03:17.639><c> that</c><00:03:17.819><c> is</c><00:03:18.199><c> absolutely</c><00:03:18.699><c> unambiguous,</c><00:03:19.819><c> and</c><00:03:20.180><c> we</c><00:03:20.360><c> will</c><00:03:20.560><c> see</c><00:03:20.699><c> a</c>

00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:34.900
And<00:03:25.780><c> since</c><00:03:26.699><c> the</c><00:03:27.319><c> Psalms</c><00:03:28.639><c> are</c><00:03:30.000><c> inspired</c><00:03:31.139><c> units,</c><00:03:32.879><c> this</c><00:03:33.219><c> is</c><00:03:33.460><c> from</c><00:03:33.719><c> a…</c>

00:03:36.180 --> 00:03:38.060
No,<00:03:36.900><c> it's</c><00:03:37.120><c> not.</c>

00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:42.960
No,<00:03:41.000><c> this</c><00:03:41.180><c> one</c><00:03:41.340><c> is</c><00:03:41.520><c> not</c><00:03:41.699><c> upside</c><00:03:42.139><c> down.</c>

00:03:44.060 --> 00:03:45.000
It's<00:03:44.180><c> the</c><00:03:44.259><c> way</c><00:03:44.360><c> Hebrew</c><00:03:44.560><c> is</c><00:03:44.740><c> written.</c>

00:03:45.180 --> 00:03:46.500
See,<00:03:45.360><c> it's</c><00:03:45.479><c> written</c><00:03:45.639><c> from</c><00:03:45.879><c> right</c><00:03:46.120><c> to</c><00:03:46.340><c> left.</c>

00:03:46.860 --> 00:03:50.280
That's<00:03:47.360><c> beginning</c><00:03:47.580><c> at</c><00:03:47.939><c> Psalm</c><00:03:48.539><c> 112</c><00:03:49.060><c> verse</c><00:03:49.439><c> 8,</c><00:03:49.719><c> that's</c><00:03:50.139><c> Psalm</c>

00:03:50.280 --> 00:03:54.539
113,<00:03:51.719><c> and</c><00:03:52.180><c> this</c><00:03:53.300><c> is</c><00:03:53.520><c> Psalm</c><00:03:53.740><c> 114.</c>

00:03:54.539 --> 00:03:59.439
So<00:03:55.340><c> we</c><00:03:55.699><c> had</c><00:03:55.919><c> a</c><00:03:56.020><c> little</c><00:03:56.159><c> discussion</c><00:03:56.539><c> about</c><00:03:56.819><c> this,</c><00:03:57.419><c> and</c><00:03:57.479><c> the</c><00:03:57.680><c> resident</c><00:03:58.060><c> expert</c><00:03:58.520><c> here</c><00:03:58.919><c> came</c><00:03:59.219><c> up</c>

00:03:59.439 --> 00:03:59.860
and<00:03:59.620><c> we</c>

00:03:59.860 --> 00:04:03.620
discussed<00:04:00.120><c> this</c><00:04:00.379><c> and</c><00:04:01.099><c> looked</c><00:04:01.360><c> at</c><00:04:01.500><c> the</c><00:04:01.659><c> book</c><00:04:01.900><c> and</c><00:04:02.159><c> my</c><00:04:02.419><c> photocopy,</c><00:04:03.259><c> and</c><00:04:03.360><c> yes,</c>

00:04:03.620 --> 00:04:04.340
we<00:04:03.819><c> determined</c><00:04:04.120><c> this</c>

00:04:04.340 --> 00:04:07.120
is<00:04:04.560><c> right</c><00:04:04.819><c> side</c><00:04:05.060><c> up</c><00:04:05.259><c> and</c><00:04:05.419><c> we</c><00:04:05.659><c> have</c><00:04:05.740><c> it</c><00:04:05.860><c> the</c><00:04:06.000><c> right</c><00:04:06.199><c> way.</c>

00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:15.699
But<00:04:08.460><c> anyway,</c><00:04:08.699><c> you</c><00:04:08.900><c> can</c><00:04:09.139><c> see</c><00:04:09.360><c> how</c><00:04:10.800><c> Psalm</c><00:04:11.240><c> 113</c><00:04:12.879><c> is</c><00:04:13.620><c> a</c><00:04:14.139><c> unit</c><00:04:14.419><c> in</c>

00:04:15.699 --> 00:04:16.860
the<00:04:15.919><c> text.</c>

00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:23.139
So<00:04:18.720><c> the</c><00:04:19.160><c> Psalms</c><00:04:19.519><c> are</c><00:04:19.939><c> inspired</c><00:04:20.519><c> units</c><00:04:21.120><c> different</c><00:04:22.240><c> from</c><00:04:22.660><c> the</c>

00:04:24.139 --> 00:04:26.560
and<00:04:24.680><c> I'll</c><00:04:25.139><c> show</c><00:04:25.279><c> you</c><00:04:25.439><c> that</c><00:04:25.579><c> in</c><00:04:25.660><c> a</c><00:04:25.759><c> minute.</c>

00:04:27.100 --> 00:04:34.420
So<00:04:27.480><c> we</c><00:04:27.660><c> can</c><00:04:27.980><c> take</c><00:04:28.199><c> a</c><00:04:28.360><c> look</c><00:04:28.600><c> at</c><00:04:28.920><c> the</c><00:04:29.180><c> Psalm,</c><00:04:31.259><c> and</c><00:04:31.339><c> having,</c><00:04:32.560><c> in</c><00:04:32.819><c> this</c><00:04:33.060><c> case,</c><00:04:33.680><c> the</c><00:04:33.819><c> speaker</c><00:04:34.180><c> of</c>

00:04:38.740 --> 00:04:41.439
can<00:04:39.000><c> take</c><00:04:39.259><c> and</c><00:04:40.660><c> from</c><00:04:41.120><c> that</c>

it<00:04:47.540><c> is.</c>

00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:54.980
Now,<00:04:50.139><c> we</c><00:04:50.480><c> need</c><00:04:50.680><c> to</c><00:04:50.759><c> test</c><00:04:51.079><c> that</c><00:04:51.560><c> idea</c><00:04:51.959><c> by</c><00:04:52.560><c> looking</c><00:04:52.920><c> at</c><00:04:54.019><c> the</c><00:04:54.279><c> Psalm,</c><00:04:54.800><c> the</c>

Now,<00:05:34.000><c> if</c><00:05:34.279><c> David</c><00:05:34.620><c> said</c><00:05:34.879><c> that,</c><00:05:35.959><c> why</c><00:05:36.220><c> would</c><00:05:36.360><c> he</c><00:05:36.620><c> say,</c><00:05:37.360><c> my</c><00:05:37.680><c> goodness</c><00:05:38.160><c> not</c><00:05:38.699><c> to</c>

00:05:57.660 --> 00:06:00.120
He's<00:05:58.180><c> a</c><00:05:58.279><c> good</c><00:05:58.420><c> example</c><00:05:58.839><c> and</c><00:05:59.040><c> so</c><00:05:59.199><c> on</c><00:05:59.360><c> most</c><00:05:59.579><c> of</c><00:05:59.779><c> the</c><00:05:59.860><c> time.</c>

00:06:00.420 --> 00:06:03.939
But<00:06:00.560><c> when</c><00:06:00.740><c> we</c><00:06:00.980><c> apply</c><00:06:01.339><c> that</c><00:06:01.600><c> to</c><00:06:01.800><c> the</c><00:06:01.899><c> Lord</c><00:06:02.040><c> Jesus</c><00:06:02.439><c> Christ,</c><00:06:03.620><c> we</c>

00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:21.759
And<00:06:18.399><c> it</c><00:06:18.459><c> is</c><00:06:18.699><c> essential</c><00:06:19.160><c> that</c><00:06:19.360><c> he</c><00:06:19.480><c> take</c><00:06:19.759><c> delight</c><00:06:20.139><c> in</c><00:06:20.300><c> us</c><00:06:20.699><c> because</c><00:06:21.339><c> he</c><00:06:21.560><c> is</c>

00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:23.300

00:06:23.300 --> 00:06:24.879
whether<00:06:23.540><c> we</c><00:06:23.800><c> receive</c><00:06:24.139><c> life</c><00:06:24.459><c> or</c><00:06:24.680><c> death.</c>

00:06:25.180 --> 00:06:29.060
So<00:06:25.459><c> in</c><00:06:25.660><c> application</c><00:06:26.199><c> to</c><00:06:26.420><c> the</c><00:06:26.579><c> Messiah,</c><00:06:27.899><c> verses</c><00:06:28.000><c> 2</c><00:06:28.259><c> and</c><00:06:28.399><c> 3</c><00:06:28.660><c> are</c>

00:06:29.060 --> 00:06:30.839
very<00:06:29.600><c> appropriate.</c>

00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:34.779
The<00:06:32.579><c> same</c><00:06:32.800><c> thing</c><00:06:33.000><c> is</c><00:06:33.180><c> true</c><00:06:33.300><c> of</c><00:06:33.420><c> verse</c><00:06:33.660><c> 4.</c>

00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:48.259
Well,<00:06:44.680><c> it</c><00:06:44.699><c> is</c><00:06:44.959><c> important</c><00:06:45.579><c> that</c><00:06:46.019><c> David</c><00:06:46.300><c> not</c><00:06:46.660><c> worship</c><00:06:47.160><c> idols.</c>

00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:54.800
But<00:06:50.339><c> in</c><00:06:50.860><c> respect</c><00:06:51.220><c> to</c><00:06:51.399><c> those</c><00:06:51.740><c> who</c><00:06:52.139><c> do</c><00:06:52.620><c> worship</c><00:06:53.180><c> idols,</c><00:06:54.300><c> it</c><00:06:54.399><c> is</c>

00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.439
very<00:06:55.259><c> important</c><00:06:56.100><c> that</c><00:06:56.800><c> the</c><00:06:57.019><c> Messiah</c><00:06:57.759><c> will</c>

00:07:01.300 --> 00:07:04.459
Whether<00:07:01.839><c> David</c><00:07:02.279><c> acknowledges</c><00:07:02.879><c> them</c><00:07:03.079><c> or</c><00:07:03.240><c> not</c><00:07:03.399><c> is</c><00:07:03.620><c> somewhat</c><00:07:03.879><c> incidental.</c>

00:07:04.459 --> 00:07:06.500
It<00:07:04.500><c> would</c><00:07:04.680><c> be</c><00:07:04.959><c> important</c><00:07:05.220><c> but</c><00:07:05.379><c> not</c><00:07:05.639><c> critical.</c>

00:07:06.540 --> 00:07:12.959
But<00:07:06.660><c> if</c><00:07:06.839><c> the</c><00:07:07.180><c> Messiah</c><00:07:07.639><c> refuses</c><00:07:08.259><c> to</c><00:07:08.620><c> take</c><00:07:08.800><c> up</c><00:07:09.019><c> the</c><00:07:09.339><c> names</c><00:07:09.800><c> of</c><00:07:10.379><c> idolaters</c><00:07:11.040><c> into</c><00:07:11.339><c> his</c><00:07:11.660><c> lips</c><00:07:11.939><c> as</c><00:07:12.600><c> being</c>

00:07:16.079 --> 00:07:20.699
So<00:07:16.259><c> you</c><00:07:16.379><c> can</c><00:07:16.620><c> see</c><00:07:17.100><c> where</c><00:07:17.720><c> this</c><00:07:17.980><c> idea,</c><00:07:18.620><c> if</c><00:07:18.819><c> part</c><00:07:19.100><c> then</c><00:07:19.379><c> all,</c><00:07:20.199><c> fits</c><00:07:20.360><c> in</c>

00:07:20.699 --> 00:07:22.959
very<00:07:21.019><c> well</c><00:07:21.420><c> as</c><00:07:21.839><c> we</c><00:07:22.060><c> look</c><00:07:22.220><c> at</c><00:07:22.379><c> the</c><00:07:22.579><c> entirety</c>

00:07:34.600 --> 00:07:39.360
But<00:07:35.319><c> one</c><00:07:35.800><c> thing</c><00:07:36.000><c> we</c><00:07:36.139><c> need</c><00:07:36.279><c> to</c><00:07:36.579><c> recognize,</c><00:07:37.319><c> all</c><00:07:38.060><c> Psalms</c><00:07:38.839><c> are</c>

00:07:41.540 --> 00:07:43.839
Have<00:07:41.720><c> a</c><00:07:41.800><c> look</c><00:07:41.959><c> over</c><00:07:42.160><c> at</c><00:07:42.379><c> Psalm</c><00:07:42.579><c> 37.</c>

00:07:44.339 --> 00:07:48.920
This<00:07:44.759><c> is</c><00:07:45.100><c> a</c><00:07:45.240><c> psalm</c><00:07:45.699><c> about</c><00:07:46.100><c> the</c><00:07:46.519><c> righteous</c><00:07:47.220><c> contrasting</c><00:07:48.620><c> them</c>

That<00:10:46.980><c> certainly</c><00:10:47.620><c> sounds</c><00:10:48.480><c> like</c><00:10:49.299><c> it</c><00:10:49.940><c> is</c><00:10:50.159><c> of</c><00:10:50.320><c> the</c><00:10:50.419><c> Lord</c><00:10:50.600><c> Jesus</c><00:10:50.980><c> Christ.</c>

00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:30.980
These<00:11:28.220><c> are</c><00:11:28.399><c> the</c><00:11:28.539><c> things</c><00:11:28.679><c> that</c><00:11:28.840><c> are</c><00:11:29.059><c> written</c><00:11:29.379><c> in</c><00:11:30.159><c> the</c><00:11:30.419><c> prophets</c>

00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:42.179

00:11:42.200 --> 00:11:44.539
And<00:11:42.379><c> they</c><00:11:42.580><c> shall</c><00:11:42.899><c> scourge</c><00:11:43.379><c> him</c><00:11:43.580><c> and</c><00:11:43.740><c> put</c><00:11:43.899><c> him</c><00:11:44.080><c> to</c><00:11:44.259><c> death.</c>

00:11:44.980 --> 00:11:47.299
Now,<00:11:45.179><c> it's</c><00:11:45.259><c> not</c><00:11:45.460><c> hard</c><00:11:45.639><c> to</c><00:11:45.840><c> find</c><00:11:46.019><c> references</c><00:11:46.500><c> to</c><00:11:46.779><c> the</c><00:11:46.960><c> fact</c><00:11:47.100><c> that</c><00:11:47.220><c> he</c>

00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:58.799
But<00:11:53.240><c> there's</c><00:11:53.460><c> only</c><00:11:54.000><c> one</c><00:11:54.620><c> place</c><00:11:55.419><c> in</c><00:11:56.679><c> anything</c><00:11:56.980><c> remotely</c><00:11:57.799><c> resembling</c><00:11:58.519><c> a</c>

00:12:03.340 --> 00:12:04.659
And<00:12:03.500><c> that's</c><00:12:03.799><c> Isaiah</c><00:12:04.059><c> 50.</c>

00:12:04.659 --> 00:12:09.600
So<00:12:05.679><c> I</c><00:12:05.960><c> don't</c><00:12:06.179><c> think</c><00:12:06.360><c> we</c><00:12:06.519><c> have</c><00:12:06.639><c> any</c><00:12:06.840><c> doubt</c><00:12:06.980><c> at</c><00:12:07.240><c> all</c><00:12:07.620><c> that</c><00:12:08.600><c> we</c><00:12:09.340><c> are</c>

00:12:42.700 --> 00:12:47.039
Therefore,<00:12:44.440><c> thus</c><00:12:44.559><c> saith</c><00:12:44.820><c> the</c><00:12:45.100><c> Lord,</c><00:12:45.799><c> where</c><00:12:46.159><c> is</c><00:12:46.379><c> the</c><00:12:46.620><c> bill</c><00:12:46.899><c> of</c>

00:12:49.200 --> 00:12:51.360
Well,<00:12:49.340><c> it's</c><00:12:49.500><c> talking</c><00:12:49.799><c> about</c><00:12:50.019><c> Israel,</c><00:12:50.460><c> sinful</c><00:12:50.720><c> Israel.</c>

00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:33.340
Then<00:13:31.840><c> there's</c><00:13:32.080><c> another</c><00:13:32.320><c> break.</c>

00:13:33.659 --> 00:13:36.320
Who<00:13:33.879><c> is</c><00:13:34.120><c> among</c><00:13:34.320><c> you</c><00:13:34.559><c> that</c><00:13:34.860><c> feareth</c><00:13:35.220><c> the</c><00:13:35.480><c> Lord,</c><00:13:35.779><c> that</c><00:13:36.000><c> obeyeth</c>

00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:44.759
So<00:13:40.100><c> that</c><00:13:40.340><c> section</c><00:13:40.740><c> from</c><00:13:41.000><c> verses</c><00:13:41.340><c> 4</c><00:13:41.759><c> through</c><00:13:42.039><c> 9</c><00:13:42.779><c> hangs</c><00:13:43.320><c> together</c><00:13:43.799><c> as</c><00:13:44.159><c> a</c><00:13:44.500><c> unit,</c>

00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:55.480
Well,<00:13:49.379><c> the</c><00:13:49.519><c> reason</c><00:13:49.799><c> for</c><00:13:50.039><c> that</c><00:13:50.759><c> is</c><00:13:51.220><c> because</c><00:13:52.120><c> in</c><00:13:52.799><c> the</c><00:13:54.320><c> prophets,</c>

00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:06.440
What<00:14:02.100><c> you</c><00:14:02.360><c> do</c><00:14:02.639><c> get</c><00:14:03.000><c> in</c><00:14:03.639><c> the</c><00:14:03.840><c> text</c><00:14:04.220><c> is</c><00:14:04.659><c> you</c><00:14:04.720><c> get</c><00:14:04.919><c> a</c><00:14:05.240><c> thought</c><00:14:05.460><c> break.</c>

00:14:07.620 --> 00:14:10.139
This<00:14:07.820><c> is</c><00:14:08.059><c> a</c><00:14:08.179><c> section</c><00:14:08.440><c> of</c><00:14:08.700><c> Isaiah</c><00:14:09.100><c> 40</c><00:14:09.539><c> actually.</c>

00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:12.659

00:14:13.100 --> 00:14:15.340
So<00:14:13.360><c> those</c><00:14:13.759><c> are</c><00:14:14.120><c> inspired.</c>

00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:19.659
But<00:14:16.600><c> the</c><00:14:17.120><c> chapter,</c><00:14:17.899><c> the</c><00:14:18.259><c> chapter</c><00:14:18.559><c> break,</c><00:14:18.799><c> I'm</c><00:14:18.960><c> not</c><00:14:19.139><c> even</c><00:14:19.299><c> quite</c><00:14:19.500><c> sure</c>

00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:25.340
But<00:14:22.659><c> you</c><00:14:22.799><c> can</c><00:14:23.019><c> see</c><00:14:23.159><c> that</c><00:14:23.299><c> there's</c><00:14:23.480><c> no</c><00:14:23.840><c> chapter</c><00:14:24.279><c> break</c><00:14:24.480><c> like</c><00:14:24.720><c> there</c><00:14:24.899><c> was</c><00:14:25.100><c> a</c>

00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:01.600
When<00:14:58.279><c> you</c><00:14:58.440><c> do</c><00:14:58.659><c> that,</c><00:14:59.259><c> as</c><00:14:59.720><c> we</c><00:14:59.919><c> will</c><00:15:00.100><c> do</c><00:15:00.259><c> here</c><00:15:00.500><c> with</c><00:15:00.700><c> Isaiah</c><00:15:01.059><c> 50,</c>

00:41:56.219 --> 00:41:58.199
Yes,<00:41:56.519><c> it</c><00:41:56.780><c> takes</c><00:41:57.159><c> courage</c><00:41:57.639><c> to</c><00:41:57.800><c> be</c><00:41:57.980><c> different.</c>

00:43:56.440 --> 00:43:58.780
We<00:43:56.760><c> won't</c><00:43:57.000><c> need</c><00:43:57.159><c> the</c><00:43:57.280><c> rest</c><00:43:57.460><c> of</c><00:43:57.599><c> our</c><00:43:57.699><c> fingers</c><00:43:58.019><c> now.</c>

00:43:58.940 --> 00:44:01.599
We'll<00:43:59.480><c> just</c><00:43:59.639><c> go</c><00:43:59.699><c> over</c><00:43:59.800><c> to</c><00:43:59.920><c> 1</c><00:44:00.099><c> Timothy</c><00:44:00.380><c> 3.</c>

00:44:02.199 --> 00:44:06.639
You<00:44:02.380><c> know</c><00:44:02.480><c> how</c><00:44:02.639><c> the</c><00:44:02.679><c> word</c><00:44:02.900><c> mystery</c><00:44:03.500><c> is</c><00:44:05.099><c> used</c><00:44:05.559><c> in</c><00:44:05.940><c> the</c><00:44:06.039><c> New</c><00:44:06.199><c> Testament?</c>

00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:10.420
It's<00:44:07.119><c> not</c><00:44:07.260><c> something</c><00:44:07.579><c> which</c><00:44:07.820><c> is</c><00:44:08.039><c> impossible</c><00:44:09.099><c> to</c><00:44:09.400><c> understand.</c>

00:44:10.920 --> 00:44:14.880
It<00:44:10.920><c> is</c><00:44:11.079><c> something</c><00:44:11.420><c> which</c><00:44:12.679><c> would</c><00:44:13.420><c> not</c><00:44:13.659><c> occur</c><00:44:13.980><c> to</c><00:44:14.139><c> the</c><00:44:14.260><c> natural</c><00:44:14.579><c> mind,</c>

00:44:14.900 --> 00:44:18.659
which<00:44:15.039><c> is</c><00:44:15.320><c> revealed</c><00:44:16.019><c> by</c><00:44:17.579><c> the</c><00:44:17.820><c> Spirit.</c>

00:44:19.219 --> 00:44:22.860
It's<00:44:19.380><c> something</c><00:44:19.619><c> that</c><00:44:19.940><c> is...</c>

00:44:22.860 --> 00:44:25.239
Well,<00:44:23.679><c> here's</c><00:44:23.980><c> a</c><00:44:24.019><c> good</c><00:44:24.239><c> example</c><00:44:24.579><c> of</c><00:44:24.760><c> it.</c>

00:44:25.239 --> 00:44:28.320
The<00:44:25.880><c> mystery</c><00:44:26.539><c> of</c><00:44:26.940><c> godliness.</c>

00:44:28.639 --> 00:44:31.599
Verse<00:44:28.760><c> 16</c><00:44:29.380><c> of</c><00:44:29.559><c> 1</c><00:44:29.760><c> Timothy</c><00:44:30.059><c> 3.</c>

00:44:31.739 --> 00:44:36.639
Without<00:44:31.739><c> controversy,</c><00:44:33.099><c> great</c><00:44:33.219><c> is</c><00:44:33.679><c> the</c><00:44:34.079><c> mystery</c><00:44:34.840><c> of</c><00:44:35.380><c> godliness.</c>

00:44:38.800 --> 00:44:42.780
God<00:44:39.420><c> was</c><00:44:40.039><c> manifest</c><00:44:40.880><c> in</c><00:44:41.599><c> the</c><00:44:41.860><c> flesh.</c>

00:44:43.559 --> 00:44:46.739
Now<00:44:43.780><c> that's</c><00:44:44.059><c> the</c><00:44:44.179><c> thing</c><00:44:44.300><c> that's</c><00:44:44.460><c> very</c><00:44:44.860><c> difficult</c><00:44:45.340><c> to</c><00:44:45.599><c> understand,</c>

00:44:46.780 --> 00:44:52.460
is<00:44:47.179><c> how</c><00:44:47.860><c> could</c><00:44:48.380><c> God</c><00:44:49.039><c> be</c><00:44:50.099><c> manifest</c><00:44:50.739><c> in</c><00:44:51.019><c> the</c><00:44:51.440><c> flesh?</c>

00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:57.300
Oh,<00:44:54.380><c> we</c><00:44:54.559><c> can</c><00:44:54.719><c> see</c><00:44:54.880><c> how</c><00:44:55.000><c> he</c><00:44:55.059><c> could</c><00:44:55.239><c> be</c><00:44:55.500><c> manifest</c><00:44:55.980><c> in</c><00:44:56.260><c> an</c><00:44:56.539><c> angel,</c>

00:44:57.519 --> 00:45:00.599
but<00:44:57.679><c> to</c><00:44:57.860><c> be</c><00:44:58.159><c> manifest</c><00:44:58.739><c> in</c><00:44:59.139><c> the</c><00:44:59.599><c> flesh.</c>

00:45:01.000 --> 00:45:02.690
And<00:45:01.239><c> that</c><00:45:01.320><c> was</c><00:45:01.519><c> the</c><00:45:01.659><c> whole</c><00:45:01.920><c> problem.</c>

00:45:03.739 --> 00:45:06.500
The<00:45:04.019><c> word</c><00:45:04.260><c> was</c><00:45:04.440><c> going</c><00:45:04.579><c> to</c><00:45:04.800><c> become</c><00:45:05.119><c> flesh.</c>

00:45:08.219 --> 00:45:11.860
Christ<00:45:08.480><c> was</c><00:45:08.639><c> going</c><00:45:08.760><c> to</c><00:45:08.900><c> come</c><00:45:09.019><c> in</c><00:45:09.159><c> the</c><00:45:09.300><c> likeness</c><00:45:09.679><c> of</c><00:45:10.019><c> sinful</c><00:45:10.400><c> flesh.</c>

00:45:14.119 --> 00:45:18.139
We<00:45:14.659><c> must</c><00:45:14.900><c> believe</c><00:45:15.199><c> that</c><00:45:15.420><c> Jesus</c><00:45:15.780><c> Christ</c><00:45:16.119><c> came</c><00:45:16.500><c> in</c><00:45:16.780><c> the</c><00:45:17.119><c> flesh.</c>

00:45:18.980 --> 00:45:20.619
That's<00:45:19.300><c> the</c><00:45:19.420><c> thing</c><00:45:19.519><c> that's</c><00:45:19.719><c> difficult</c><00:45:20.099><c> to</c><00:45:20.340><c> understand,</c>

00:45:20.619 --> 00:45:25.480
is<00:45:20.739><c> how</c><00:45:21.739><c> it</c><00:45:23.400><c> could</c><00:45:23.659><c> ever</c><00:45:24.000><c> be</c><00:45:24.320><c> done.</c>

00:45:27.179 --> 00:45:32.159
And<00:45:27.679><c> we're</c><00:45:27.960><c> seeing</c><00:45:28.420><c> the</c><00:45:28.760><c> process</c><00:45:29.760><c> by</c><00:45:30.480><c> which</c><00:45:30.659><c> it</c><00:45:30.800><c> could</c><00:45:30.920><c> be</c><00:45:31.139><c> done.</c>

00:45:32.679 --> 00:45:35.760
