00:00:01.440 --> 00:00:03.859
So<00:00:01.919><c> we're</c><00:00:02.100><c> going</c><00:00:02.240><c> to</c><00:00:02.279><c> cover</c><00:00:02.560><c> a</c><00:00:02.740><c> little</c><00:00:03.220><c> background,</c>

00:00:03.940 --> 00:00:05.139
a<00:00:04.059><c> little</c><00:00:04.200><c> background</c><00:00:04.540><c> to</c><00:00:04.740><c> the</c><00:00:04.860><c> epistle,</c>

00:00:05.219 --> 00:00:07.860
why<00:00:05.419><c> did</c><00:00:05.620><c> John</c><00:00:05.759><c> write</c><00:00:06.019><c> the</c><00:00:06.200><c> epistle,</c><00:00:06.599><c> what</c><00:00:06.780><c> was</c><00:00:07.019><c> going</c><00:00:07.339><c> on,</c>

00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:10.339
a<00:00:08.300><c> little</c><00:00:08.460><c> background</c><00:00:08.939><c> into</c><00:00:09.279><c> John.</c>

00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:13.759
And<00:00:12.320><c> then</c><00:00:12.419><c> we'll</c><00:00:12.519><c> talk</c><00:00:12.740><c> about</c><00:00:12.900><c> the</c><00:00:13.140><c> false</c><00:00:13.380><c> teaching</c>

00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:16.859
that<00:00:14.000><c> John</c><00:00:14.300><c> is</c><00:00:14.560><c> going</c><00:00:14.919><c> to,</c><00:00:16.559><c> you</c><00:00:16.679><c> know,</c>

00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:18.660
that's<00:00:17.420><c> what's</c><00:00:17.620><c> happening</c><00:00:17.940><c> in</c><00:00:18.179><c> the</c><00:00:18.339><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:00:18.839 --> 00:00:19.480
There's<00:00:19.019><c> a</c><00:00:19.320><c> split.</c>

00:00:19.780 --> 00:00:21.399
There's<00:00:19.859><c> been</c><00:00:20.059><c> false</c><00:00:20.440><c> teachings</c><00:00:20.800><c> brought</c><00:00:21.160><c> in,</c>

00:00:21.420 --> 00:00:25.120
and<00:00:21.579><c> so</c><00:00:21.679><c> we're</c><00:00:21.820><c> going</c><00:00:21.960><c> to</c><00:00:22.219><c> discuss</c><00:00:22.660><c> some</c><00:00:23.399><c> of</c><00:00:23.500><c> those</c><00:00:23.760><c> false</c><00:00:24.100><c> teachings.</c>

00:00:25.219 --> 00:00:26.760
We're<00:00:25.420><c> going</c><00:00:25.500><c> to</c><00:00:25.600><c> talk</c><00:00:25.719><c> about</c><00:00:25.859><c> the</c><00:00:26.079><c> great</c><00:00:26.339><c> witness</c>

00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:28.059
that<00:00:27.039><c> the</c><00:00:27.300><c> apostles</c><00:00:27.719><c> are.</c>

00:00:28.059 --> 00:00:30.660
I've<00:00:28.239><c> got</c><00:00:28.379><c> a</c><00:00:28.460><c> much</c><00:00:28.719><c> greater</c><00:00:29.199><c> appreciation</c>

00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:34.039
for<00:00:31.679><c> the</c><00:00:32.159><c> great</c><00:00:32.359><c> witness</c><00:00:32.700><c> that</c><00:00:32.960><c> they</c><00:00:33.259><c> are,</c><00:00:33.859><c> right?</c>

00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:36.340
They<00:00:34.259><c> were</c><00:00:34.500><c> right</c><00:00:34.740><c> with</c><00:00:35.200><c> Christ.</c>

00:00:36.460 --> 00:00:40.359
They<00:00:36.460><c> were,</c><00:00:37.079><c> you</c><00:00:37.960><c> know,</c><00:00:38.240><c> they</c><00:00:38.640><c> saw</c><00:00:39.079><c> the</c><00:00:39.340><c> risen</c><00:00:39.659><c> Christ.</c>

00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:42.679
They<00:00:40.700><c> were</c><00:00:40.939><c> given</c><00:00:41.179><c> the</c><00:00:41.460><c> Holy</c><00:00:41.799><c> Spirit,</c><00:00:42.500><c> right?</c>

00:00:42.700 --> 00:00:46.359
There's<00:00:42.979><c> no</c><00:00:43.299><c> greater</c><00:00:43.619><c> witness</c><00:00:44.060><c> than</c><00:00:44.280><c> these</c><00:00:45.039><c> apostles.</c>

00:00:47.859 --> 00:00:49.640
And<00:00:48.039><c> you</c><00:00:48.119><c> know,</c><00:00:48.340><c> in</c><00:00:48.439><c> the</c><00:00:48.659><c> struggles</c><00:00:48.960><c> that</c><00:00:49.200><c> they</c><00:00:49.439><c> had</c>

00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:52.060
with<00:00:49.840><c> the</c><00:00:50.060><c> false</c><00:00:50.359><c> teachings</c><00:00:50.719><c> almost</c><00:00:51.240><c> immediately</c>

00:00:52.060 --> 00:00:53.539
within<00:00:52.700><c> the</c><00:00:53.039><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:00:53.859 --> 00:00:54.920
So<00:00:54.039><c> we're</c><00:00:54.219><c> going</c><00:00:54.299><c> to</c><00:00:54.479><c> spend</c><00:00:54.579><c> some</c><00:00:54.820><c> time,</c>

00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:56.560
we<00:00:55.079><c> probably</c><00:00:55.399><c> won't</c><00:00:55.579><c> get</c><00:00:55.820><c> beyond</c>

00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:59.259
the<00:00:57.079><c> background</c><00:00:57.539><c> and</c><00:00:57.759><c> the</c><00:00:57.960><c> false</c><00:00:58.179><c> teachings.</c>

00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:01.899
That's<00:01:00.060><c> probably</c><00:01:00.299><c> what</c><00:01:00.460><c> we'll</c><00:01:00.679><c> cover</c><00:01:00.899><c> today.</c>

00:01:02.060 --> 00:01:05.319
We'll<00:01:02.240><c> look</c><00:01:02.420><c> at</c><00:01:02.600><c> what</c><00:01:02.859><c> it</c><00:01:03.020><c> means</c><00:01:03.280><c> to</c><00:01:03.520><c> be</c><00:01:03.799><c> a</c><00:01:04.180><c> child</c><00:01:04.620><c> of</c><00:01:04.840><c> the</c><00:01:05.040><c> devil</c>

00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:07.519
or<00:01:05.799><c> the</c><00:01:06.040><c> child</c><00:01:06.480><c> of</c><00:01:06.719><c> the</c><00:01:07.019><c> flesh</c>

00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:11.379
and<00:01:08.180><c> of</c><00:01:08.400><c> course</c><00:01:08.620><c> being</c><00:01:09.060><c> the</c><00:01:09.620><c> children</c><00:01:09.959><c> of</c><00:01:10.260><c> God.</c>

00:01:11.700 --> 00:01:13.379
We'll<00:01:11.840><c> talk</c><00:01:11.939><c> about</c><00:01:12.200><c> fellowship.</c>

00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:19.040
John<00:01:15.219><c> brings</c><00:01:15.540><c> up</c><00:01:15.840><c> these</c><00:01:16.700><c> three</c><00:01:17.019><c> ideas</c><00:01:17.359><c> of</c><00:01:17.680><c> God</c><00:01:17.920><c> is</c><00:01:18.200><c> light,</c>

00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:21.540
God<00:01:19.340><c> is</c><00:01:19.620><c> love,</c><00:01:20.400><c> God</c><00:01:20.700><c> is</c><00:01:21.180><c> life.</c>

00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:24.019
Knowledge,<00:01:22.920><c> right,</c><00:01:23.120><c> having</c><00:01:23.299><c> that</c><00:01:23.680><c> knowledge,</c>

00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:25.620
following<00:01:24.540><c> God's</c><00:01:25.140><c> ways.</c>

00:01:25.620 --> 00:01:28.079
And<00:01:26.180><c> then</c><00:01:26.379><c> applying</c><00:01:26.840><c> it</c><00:01:27.120><c> to</c><00:01:27.280><c> our</c><00:01:27.500><c> lives,</c>

00:01:28.299 --> 00:01:30.680
you<00:01:28.299><c> know,</c><00:01:28.560><c> living</c><00:01:28.879><c> the</c><00:01:29.239><c> truth,</c><00:01:30.280><c> right?</c>

00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:31.920
And<00:01:31.280><c> God</c><00:01:31.480><c> is</c><00:01:31.739><c> life.</c>

00:01:32.060 --> 00:01:34.879
We<00:01:32.200><c> are</c><00:01:32.420><c> born</c><00:01:32.739><c> of</c><00:01:33.000><c> God,</c><00:01:33.299><c> born</c><00:01:33.620><c> by</c><00:01:33.879><c> the</c><00:01:34.159><c> Spirit</c><00:01:34.459><c> word.</c>

00:01:35.299 --> 00:01:38.540
We're<00:01:35.519><c> born</c><00:01:35.879><c> of</c><00:01:36.200><c> water</c><00:01:36.519><c> by</c><00:01:36.859><c> our</c><00:01:37.180><c> baptisms.</c>

00:01:38.859 --> 00:01:40.819
And<00:01:39.120><c> eventually</c><00:01:39.459><c> we're</c><00:01:39.719><c> going</c><00:01:39.780><c> to</c><00:01:39.879><c> be</c><00:01:40.060><c> born</c><00:01:40.159><c> of</c><00:01:40.319><c> the</c><00:01:40.599><c> Spirit.</c>

00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:43.260
We're<00:01:41.040><c> going</c><00:01:41.120><c> to</c><00:01:41.219><c> be</c><00:01:41.379><c> given</c><00:01:41.760><c> eternal</c><00:01:42.299><c> life.</c>

00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:48.959
So<00:01:44.439><c> that's</c><00:01:44.680><c> what</c><00:01:44.819><c> we're</c><00:01:45.040><c> going</c><00:01:45.159><c> to</c><00:01:45.359><c> cover</c><00:01:45.959><c> for</c><00:01:47.400><c> this</c><00:01:48.040><c> month.</c>

00:01:50.099 --> 00:01:52.280
So<00:01:50.579><c> a</c><00:01:50.719><c> little</c><00:01:50.959><c> background</c><00:01:51.500><c> into</c><00:01:51.780><c> John.</c>

00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:56.359
He<00:01:53.219><c> was</c><00:01:53.519><c> a</c><00:01:53.739><c> writer,</c><00:01:54.280><c> the</c><00:01:54.439><c> Gospel,</c><00:01:55.159><c> about</c><00:01:55.379><c> AD</c><00:01:55.680><c> 65.</c>

00:01:56.620 --> 00:01:59.680
He<00:01:56.799><c> wrote</c><00:01:57.000><c> this</c><00:01:57.359><c> epistle</c><00:01:57.739><c> about</c><00:01:58.439><c> AD</c><00:01:58.980><c> 90</c>

00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:04.939
and<00:02:00.640><c> then</c><00:02:00.859><c> the</c><00:02:01.019><c> revelation</c><00:02:01.459><c> of</c><00:02:01.680><c> Jesus</c><00:02:02.120><c> Christ</c><00:02:02.859><c> around</c><00:02:03.340><c> AD</c><00:02:04.079><c> 95.</c>

00:02:05.379 --> 00:02:08.180
He<00:02:05.579><c> is</c><00:02:05.840><c> the</c><00:02:06.000><c> son</c><00:02:06.120><c> of</c><00:02:06.379><c> Zebedee</c><00:02:06.819><c> and</c><00:02:07.200><c> Salome,</c>

00:02:09.860 --> 00:02:13.020
so<00:02:10.020><c> he</c><00:02:10.159><c> grew</c><00:02:10.300><c> up</c><00:02:10.520><c> in</c><00:02:10.659><c> a</c><00:02:10.840><c> faithful</c><00:02:11.599><c> household.</c>

00:02:13.900 --> 00:02:19.400
Salome,<00:02:15.259><c> some</c><00:02:15.599><c> say,</c><00:02:16.400><c> was</c><00:02:17.199><c> the</c><00:02:17.960><c> sister</c><00:02:18.460><c> of</c><00:02:18.879><c> Mary,</c>

00:02:21.820 --> 00:02:25.960
So<00:02:22.240><c> that</c><00:02:23.060><c> would,</c><00:02:23.439><c> of</c><00:02:23.620><c> course,</c><00:02:23.860><c> make</c><00:02:24.039><c> her</c><00:02:24.280><c> Jesus'</c><00:02:25.039><c> aunt.</c>

00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:48.199
His<00:02:44.460><c> name</c><00:02:44.780><c> signifies</c><00:02:45.580><c> Yahweh</c><00:02:46.300><c> has</c><00:02:46.639><c> been</c><00:02:47.039><c> gracious.</c>

00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:54.500

00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:56.680
Now,<00:02:55.060><c> I</c><00:02:55.240><c> don't</c><00:02:55.520><c> think</c><00:02:55.659><c> that</c><00:02:55.900><c> means</c><00:02:56.099><c> that</c><00:02:56.340><c> Jesus</c>

00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:05.219

00:03:05.219 --> 00:03:08.939
the<00:03:05.900><c> love</c><00:03:06.280><c> that</c><00:03:06.580><c> Jesus</c><00:03:06.979><c> had</c><00:03:07.960><c> for</c><00:03:08.539><c> him,</c>

00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:13.000
Jesus<00:03:11.699><c> laid</c><00:03:12.139><c> down</c><00:03:12.560><c> his</c><00:03:12.860><c> life.</c>

00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:15.680
They<00:03:13.740><c> didn't</c><00:03:13.939><c> fully</c><00:03:14.280><c> understand</c><00:03:15.020><c> that</c>

00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:18.180
until<00:03:16.199><c> after</c><00:03:17.000><c> they</c><00:03:17.400><c> meet</c><00:03:17.580><c> the</c><00:03:17.680><c> Resurrection.</c>

00:03:18.979 --> 00:03:21.699
After<00:03:19.500><c> they</c><00:03:20.020><c> get</c><00:03:20.199><c> visited</c><00:03:20.560><c> by</c><00:03:20.819><c> the</c><00:03:21.000><c> Holy</c><00:03:21.240><c> Spirit,</c>

00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:24.300
then<00:03:22.199><c> all</c><00:03:22.759><c> of</c><00:03:22.960><c> that</c><00:03:23.159><c> is</c><00:03:23.479><c> revealed</c><00:03:23.860><c> to</c><00:03:24.120><c> them.</c>

00:03:24.580 --> 00:03:27.460
They're<00:03:24.919><c> able</c><00:03:25.139><c> to</c><00:03:25.439><c> bring</c><00:03:25.680><c> back</c><00:03:26.039><c> all</c><00:03:26.520><c> the</c><00:03:26.800><c> lessons</c>

00:03:27.460 --> 00:03:29.340
that<00:03:28.060><c> Jesus</c><00:03:28.520><c> had</c><00:03:28.879><c> taught</c><00:03:29.139><c> them,</c>

00:03:29.340 --> 00:03:31.460
and<00:03:29.539><c> they</c><00:03:29.680><c> would</c><00:03:29.900><c> get</c><00:03:30.159><c> understanding</c><00:03:30.919><c> of</c><00:03:31.219><c> it.</c>

00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:32.560
They<00:03:32.080><c> didn't</c><00:03:32.340><c> quite</c><00:03:32.460><c> understand,</c>

00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:33.900
why<00:03:32.780><c> does</c><00:03:33.000><c> he</c><00:03:33.159><c> have</c><00:03:33.439><c> to</c><00:03:33.680><c> die?</c>

00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:36.520
Then<00:03:34.539><c> they</c><00:03:34.699><c> would</c><00:03:34.960><c> have</c><00:03:35.139><c> all</c><00:03:35.500><c> of</c><00:03:35.699><c> that</c><00:03:35.900><c> understanding.</c>

00:03:36.979 --> 00:03:38.460
So<00:03:37.139><c> I</c><00:03:37.159><c> think</c><00:03:37.379><c> John,</c><00:03:37.699><c> when</c><00:03:37.860><c> he</c><00:03:38.060><c> writes</c><00:03:38.280><c> that,</c>

00:03:38.580 --> 00:03:43.539
he<00:03:38.599><c> says,</c><00:03:39.219><c> I</c><00:03:39.379><c> understand</c><00:03:40.020><c> the</c><00:03:40.400><c> love</c><00:03:41.020><c> that</c><00:03:41.419><c> Christ</c><00:03:41.719><c> had</c><00:03:42.159><c> for</c><00:03:42.460><c> me.</c>

00:03:44.979 --> 00:03:47.180
Behold<00:03:45.539><c> thy</c><00:03:45.759><c> mother,</c><00:03:46.159><c> behold</c><00:03:46.379><c> thy</c><00:03:46.740><c> son,</c>

00:03:47.539 --> 00:03:49.560
at<00:03:47.740><c> the</c><00:03:47.960><c> Crucifixion.</c>

00:03:50.659 --> 00:03:52.060
John<00:03:51.219><c> was</c><00:03:51.780><c> there.</c>

00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:55.300
He<00:03:52.900><c> says,</c><00:03:53.479><c> which</c><00:03:54.539><c> would</c><00:03:54.759><c> make</c><00:03:54.979><c> sense,</c>

00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:57.680
why<00:03:55.900><c> did</c><00:03:56.139><c> Jesus</c><00:03:56.500><c> give</c><00:03:56.960><c> his</c><00:03:57.319><c> mother,</c>

00:03:57.879 --> 00:03:59.000
look<00:03:58.199><c> after</c><00:03:58.520><c> my</c><00:03:58.800><c> mother?</c>

00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:00.599
Well,<00:03:59.479><c> if</c><00:03:59.599><c> it</c><00:03:59.740><c> was</c><00:03:59.979><c> his</c><00:04:00.259><c> aunt,</c>

00:04:01.060 --> 00:04:02.960
that<00:04:01.340><c> would</c><00:04:01.539><c> make</c><00:04:01.759><c> some</c><00:04:02.000><c> sense.</c>

00:04:04.340 --> 00:04:05.919
He<00:04:04.639><c> was</c><00:04:04.819><c> part</c><00:04:04.979><c> of</c><00:04:05.159><c> that</c><00:04:05.379><c> inner</c><00:04:05.599><c> circle.</c>

00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:09.199
He<00:04:06.319><c> was</c><00:04:06.979><c> present</c><00:04:07.319><c> at</c><00:04:07.500><c> the</c><00:04:07.800><c> Transfiguration,</c>

00:04:09.539 --> 00:04:11.560
and<00:04:09.840><c> he</c><00:04:09.960><c> was</c><00:04:10.159><c> in</c><00:04:10.300><c> the</c><00:04:10.439><c> Garden</c><00:04:10.740><c> of</c><00:04:11.039><c> Gethsemane.</c>

A<00:04:11.919><c> great</c><00:04:12.300><c> time</c><00:04:13.080><c> with</c><00:04:13.840><c> the</c><00:04:14.080><c> Transfiguration,</c>

00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:17.560
and<00:04:15.719><c> then</c><00:04:15.819><c> at</c><00:04:16.000><c> the</c><00:04:16.160><c> low</c><00:04:16.379><c> point</c><00:04:16.600><c> in</c><00:04:16.740><c> Jesus'</c><00:04:17.339><c> life</c>

00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:19.379
when<00:04:17.740><c> he</c><00:04:17.879><c> was</c><00:04:18.180><c> in</c><00:04:18.420><c> the</c><00:04:18.439><c> Garden</c><00:04:18.720><c> of</c><00:04:18.939><c> Gethsemane.</c>

00:04:19.660 --> 00:04:21.420
That's<00:04:19.959><c> what</c><00:04:20.060><c> a</c><00:04:20.279><c> true</c><00:04:20.439><c> friend</c><00:04:20.720><c> is</c><00:04:20.959><c> there</c><00:04:21.199><c> for.</c>

00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:25.699
Celebrate<00:04:22.480><c> the</c><00:04:22.639><c> good</c><00:04:22.860><c> times</c><00:04:23.399><c> and</c><00:04:24.360><c> be</c><00:04:24.620><c> in</c><00:04:24.800><c> sorrow</c><00:04:25.120><c> with</c><00:04:25.420><c> you</c>

00:04:25.699 --> 00:04:26.839

00:04:27.139 --> 00:04:29.819
That's<00:04:27.439><c> a</c><00:04:27.500><c> good</c><00:04:27.680><c> friend,</c><00:04:28.120><c> and</c><00:04:28.240><c> John</c><00:04:28.519><c> was</c><00:04:28.839><c> there.</c>

00:04:30.220 --> 00:04:33.360
He<00:04:30.339><c> was</c><00:04:30.540><c> a</c><00:04:30.720><c> pillar</c><00:04:30.939><c> in</c><00:04:31.139><c> the</c><00:04:31.300><c> Jerusalem</c><00:04:31.879><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:38.699
Anytime<00:04:34.519><c> there</c><00:04:35.079><c> were</c><00:04:36.759><c> questions</c><00:04:37.300><c> in</c><00:04:37.500><c> the</c><00:04:37.699><c> Ecclesias</c>

00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:43.040
it<00:04:40.879><c> was,</c><00:04:41.160><c> you</c><00:04:41.339><c> know,</c><00:04:41.459><c> go</c><00:04:41.600><c> to</c><00:04:41.800><c> Jerusalem</c><00:04:42.180><c> if</c><00:04:42.399><c> we</c><00:04:42.639><c> can.</c>

00:04:43.459 --> 00:04:44.660
Talk<00:04:43.660><c> to</c><00:04:43.800><c> one</c><00:04:43.980><c> of</c><00:04:44.100><c> the</c><00:04:44.279><c> apostles.</c>

00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:45.939
Write<00:04:45.040><c> to</c><00:04:45.199><c> one</c><00:04:45.360><c> of</c><00:04:45.480><c> the</c><00:04:45.620><c> apostles.</c>

00:04:46.019 --> 00:04:46.899
They'll<00:04:46.259><c> write</c><00:04:46.480><c> back.</c>

00:04:47.180 --> 00:04:50.740
They<00:04:47.480><c> had</c><00:04:47.699><c> great</c><00:04:48.000><c> respect</c><00:04:48.740><c> in</c><00:04:49.519><c> the</c><00:04:49.720><c> community.</c>

00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:54.740
And<00:04:51.180><c> he</c><00:04:51.399><c> labored</c><00:04:52.319><c> in</c><00:04:52.639><c> the</c><00:04:52.879><c> truth</c><00:04:53.240><c> till</c><00:04:53.480><c> his</c><00:04:53.839><c> death.</c>

00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:59.560
Now,<00:04:57.240><c> as</c><00:04:57.800><c> tradition</c><00:04:58.339><c> goes,</c>

00:05:00.180 --> 00:05:03.939
he<00:05:00.379><c> was</c><00:05:00.800><c> sentenced</c><00:05:01.259><c> to</c><00:05:01.579><c> death</c><00:05:01.819><c> by</c><00:05:02.279><c> emperor</c><00:05:02.699><c> Domitian.</c>

00:05:04.100 --> 00:05:05.920
That's<00:05:04.519><c> how</c><00:05:04.639><c> you</c><00:05:04.759><c> pronounce</c><00:05:05.079><c> that,</c><00:05:05.399><c> right,</c><00:05:05.600><c> Jacob?</c>

00:05:06.019 --> 00:05:07.199
That's<00:05:06.459><c> good,</c><00:05:06.779><c> okay.</c>

00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:12.620
And<00:05:07.939><c> he</c><00:05:08.480><c> was</c><00:05:08.660><c> going</c><00:05:08.800><c> to</c><00:05:08.899><c> be</c><00:05:09.120><c> thrown</c><00:05:09.379><c> into</c><00:05:09.740><c> a</c><00:05:10.019><c> boiling</c><00:05:10.699><c> pot</c><00:05:11.300><c> of</c><00:05:11.699><c> oil,</c>

00:05:12.740 --> 00:05:14.100
and<00:05:12.879><c> so</c><00:05:13.019><c> he</c><00:05:13.199><c> is.</c>

00:05:14.180 --> 00:05:15.639
However,<00:05:14.579><c> it</c><00:05:14.720><c> had</c><00:05:14.860><c> no</c><00:05:15.100><c> effect</c><00:05:15.339><c> on</c><00:05:15.540><c> him.</c>

00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:18.519
He<00:05:15.740><c> comes</c><00:05:15.980><c> right</c><00:05:16.199><c> out</c><00:05:16.459><c> of</c><00:05:16.579><c> it,</c><00:05:17.339><c> and</c><00:05:17.740><c> then</c><00:05:17.980><c> Domitian's</c><00:05:18.420><c> like,</c>

00:05:22.420 --> 00:05:24.180
Now,<00:05:22.560><c> one</c><00:05:22.680><c> of</c><00:05:22.759><c> the</c><00:05:22.939><c> earlier,</c><00:05:23.759><c> you</c><00:05:23.899><c> know,</c><00:05:24.000><c> again,</c>

00:05:24.180 --> 00:05:24.879
that's<00:05:24.579><c> tradition.</c>

00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:28.339
It's<00:05:25.160><c> not</c><00:05:25.300><c> in</c><00:05:25.480><c> the</c><00:05:25.680><c> Scriptures,</c><00:05:26.560><c> but</c><00:05:27.139><c> this</c><00:05:27.500><c> guy</c><00:05:27.620><c> Tertullian,</c>

00:05:32.120 --> 00:05:35.579
He<00:05:32.319><c> says,</c><00:05:32.639><c> since,</c><00:05:33.240><c> moreover,</c><00:05:33.879><c> you</c><00:05:34.120><c> are</c><00:05:34.339><c> close</c><00:05:34.740><c> upon</c><00:05:35.079><c> Italy,</c>

00:05:35.579 --> 00:05:40.079

00:05:40.660 --> 00:05:44.920
the<00:05:41.060><c> very</c><00:05:41.480><c> authority</c><00:05:42.379><c> of</c><00:05:42.779><c> the</c><00:05:43.000><c> apostles</c><00:05:43.540><c> themselves.</c>

00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:46.779
How<00:05:45.399><c> happy</c><00:05:45.819><c> is</c><00:05:46.100><c> its</c><00:05:46.360><c> church</c>

00:05:46.779 --> 00:05:50.620
on<00:05:47.100><c> which</c><00:05:47.600><c> the</c><00:05:48.079><c> apostles</c><00:05:48.579><c> poured</c><00:05:49.000><c> forth</c><00:05:49.500><c> all</c><00:05:49.959><c> their</c><00:05:50.259><c> doctrine.</c>

00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:53.740
Okay,<00:05:51.060><c> so</c><00:05:51.160><c> that,</c><00:05:51.459><c> again,</c><00:05:51.920><c> shows</c><00:05:52.300><c> the</c><00:05:53.199><c> authority</c>

00:05:53.740 --> 00:05:55.180
that<00:05:54.000><c> they</c><00:05:54.180><c> had</c><00:05:54.420><c> in</c><00:05:54.699><c> doctrine</c>

00:05:55.180 --> 00:05:58.680
and<00:05:55.680><c> the</c><00:05:55.819><c> respect</c><00:05:56.300><c> they</c><00:05:56.560><c> had</c><00:05:56.819><c> for</c><00:05:57.120><c> their</c><00:05:57.480><c> witness</c>

00:05:59.479 --> 00:06:00.839

00:06:00.839 --> 00:06:02.720
Then<00:06:00.959><c> he</c><00:06:01.040><c> goes</c><00:06:01.199><c> on</c><00:06:01.399><c> to</c><00:06:01.519><c> the</c><00:06:01.819><c> moderndom,</c><00:06:02.459><c> right?</c>

00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:04.740
Peter<00:06:03.019><c> was</c><00:06:03.579><c> crucified,</c><00:06:04.560><c> right?</c>

00:06:04.740 --> 00:06:08.279
As<00:06:04.939><c> tradition</c><00:06:05.319><c> goes,</c><00:06:05.800><c> he</c><00:06:06.000><c> was</c><00:06:06.360><c> crucified</c><00:06:06.819><c> upside</c><00:06:07.279><c> down.</c>

00:06:08.540 --> 00:06:12.079
Paul<00:06:08.980><c> wins</c><00:06:09.339><c> his</c><00:06:09.680><c> crown</c><00:06:09.939><c> in</c><00:06:10.240><c> death</c><00:06:10.439><c> like</c><00:06:10.740><c> John</c><00:06:11.019><c> the</c><00:06:11.220><c> Baptist,</c>

00:06:12.139 --> 00:06:14.240
so<00:06:12.540><c> he</c><00:06:12.720><c> must</c><00:06:12.920><c> have</c><00:06:13.100><c> been</c><00:06:13.339><c> beheaded.</c>

00:06:14.740 --> 00:06:18.339
And<00:06:14.920><c> it</c><00:06:15.019><c> says,</c><00:06:15.319><c> where</c><00:06:15.379><c> the</c><00:06:15.540><c> apostle</c><00:06:15.939><c> John</c><00:06:16.279><c> was</c><00:06:16.600><c> first</c><00:06:16.920><c> plunged,</c><00:06:17.660><c> unhurt,</c>

00:06:18.660 --> 00:06:23.139

00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:25.399

00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:28.740
you<00:06:25.540><c> throw</c><00:06:25.759><c> this</c><00:06:26.019><c> guy</c><00:06:26.180><c> in</c><00:06:26.420><c> oil</c><00:06:26.699><c> and</c><00:06:26.920><c> nothing</c><00:06:27.240><c> happens</c><00:06:27.699><c> to</c><00:06:27.959><c> him,</c>

00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:30.379
you'd<00:06:29.199><c> be</c><00:06:29.319><c> pretty</c><00:06:29.560><c> afraid</c><00:06:29.860><c> of</c><00:06:30.019><c> the</c><00:06:30.139><c> guy,</c>

00:06:30.379 --> 00:06:33.240
and<00:06:30.519><c> like,</c><00:06:31.000><c> all</c><00:06:31.120><c> right,</c><00:06:31.339><c> let's</c><00:06:31.579><c> just</c><00:06:32.279><c> get</c><00:06:32.500><c> rid</c><00:06:32.680><c> of</c><00:06:32.860><c> this</c><00:06:33.079><c> guy,</c>

00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:34.100
put<00:06:33.480><c> him</c><00:06:33.660><c> out</c><00:06:33.879><c> somewhere.</c>

00:06:34.100 --> 00:06:35.959
I<00:06:34.259><c> don't</c><00:06:34.459><c> want</c><00:06:34.600><c> to</c><00:06:34.740><c> see</c><00:06:34.879><c> him</c><00:06:35.079><c> again.</c>

00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:41.620
So<00:06:38.879><c> what</c><00:06:39.360><c> about</c><00:06:39.579><c> the</c><00:06:39.879><c> character</c><00:06:40.459><c> of</c><00:06:41.040><c> John,</c><00:06:41.480><c> right?</c>

00:06:41.620 --> 00:06:42.860
He's<00:06:41.959><c> zealous,</c><00:06:42.540><c> right?</c>

00:06:42.860 --> 00:06:45.220
The<00:06:43.100><c> sons</c><00:06:43.660><c> of</c><00:06:44.279><c> thunder.</c>

00:06:46.259 --> 00:06:49.920
So<00:06:46.519><c> when</c><00:06:46.759><c> the</c><00:06:47.019><c> Samaritans</c><00:06:47.720><c> reject</c><00:06:48.399><c> Jesus,</c>

00:07:00.339 --> 00:07:02.399
You've<00:07:00.699><c> got</c><00:07:00.740><c> to</c><00:07:00.819><c> like</c><00:07:01.019><c> that</c><00:07:01.360><c> zeal,</c><00:07:02.040><c> right?</c>

00:07:02.540 --> 00:07:05.040
Hey,<00:07:03.120><c> they've</c><00:07:03.279><c> rejected</c><00:07:03.639><c> you,</c><00:07:04.060><c> let's</c><00:07:04.420><c> destroy</c><00:07:04.899><c> them.</c>

00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:05.879
What<00:07:05.439><c> do</c><00:07:05.560><c> you</c><00:07:05.620><c> think?</c>

00:07:05.959 --> 00:07:08.060
Of<00:07:06.060><c> course,</c><00:07:06.379><c> Jesus</c><00:07:06.720><c> is</c><00:07:07.000><c> like,</c><00:07:07.300><c> no.</c>

00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:11.680
But<00:07:09.060><c> you</c><00:07:09.060><c> know,</c><00:07:09.519><c> John</c><00:07:09.680><c> was</c><00:07:09.980><c> bold,</c><00:07:10.639><c> he</c><00:07:10.800><c> was</c><00:07:11.100><c> confident,</c>

he<00:07:12.120><c> was</c><00:07:12.560><c> thoughtful.</c>

00:07:14.300 --> 00:07:19.459
When<00:07:14.540><c> Jesus</c><00:07:14.959><c> gets</c><00:07:15.360><c> arrested,</c><00:07:17.879><c> John</c><00:07:18.240><c> goes</c><00:07:18.560><c> in</c><00:07:18.839><c> with</c><00:07:19.060><c> him.</c>

00:07:30.779 --> 00:07:32.100
He<00:07:30.980><c> was</c><00:07:31.300><c> confident.</c>

00:07:32.579 --> 00:07:33.939
He<00:07:32.660><c> went</c><00:07:32.779><c> into</c><00:07:33.000><c> the</c><00:07:33.139><c> court</c><00:07:33.240><c> of</c><00:07:33.399><c> the</c><00:07:33.500><c> high</c><00:07:33.699><c> priest,</c>

You<00:09:50.879><c> know,</c><00:09:51.740><c> what</c><00:09:52.039><c> happens</c><00:09:52.360><c> when</c><00:09:52.539><c> someone</c><00:09:52.840><c> says,</c>

00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:54.700
hey,<00:09:53.360><c> did</c><00:09:53.519><c> you</c><00:09:53.720><c> vote?</c>

00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:56.860
Do<00:09:55.539><c> you</c><00:09:55.700><c> just</c><00:09:55.980><c> sheepishly</c><00:09:56.700><c> say,</c>

00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:01.039
oh,<00:09:57.679><c> I</c><00:09:58.039><c> don't</c><00:09:58.259><c> vote,</c><00:09:59.799><c> and</c><00:10:00.039><c> try</c><00:10:00.179><c> to</c><00:10:00.379><c> move</c><00:10:00.600><c> on?</c>

00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:02.799
Or<00:10:01.399><c> do</c><00:10:01.480><c> you</c><00:10:01.559><c> say,</c><00:10:01.720><c> no,</c><00:10:01.899><c> I</c><00:10:02.039><c> already</c><00:10:02.340><c> did.</c>

00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:04.179
I<00:10:03.460><c> voted</c><00:10:03.659><c> for</c><00:10:03.919><c> Christ.</c>

00:10:04.179 --> 00:10:05.340
He's<00:10:04.419><c> the</c><00:10:04.539><c> king</c><00:10:04.659><c> of</c><00:10:04.860><c> the</c><00:10:05.000><c> world.</c>

00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:06.840
You<00:10:05.879><c> know,</c><00:10:06.019><c> he's</c><00:10:06.159><c> coming</c><00:10:06.440><c> back.</c>

00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:07.779
He's<00:10:07.100><c> the</c><00:10:07.220><c> son</c><00:10:07.360><c> of</c><00:10:07.600><c> God.</c>

00:10:07.820 --> 00:10:09.080
He's<00:10:08.000><c> the</c><00:10:08.200><c> Christ.</c>

00:10:09.700 --> 00:10:12.019
He'll<00:10:10.100><c> judge</c><00:10:10.399><c> the</c><00:10:10.600><c> whole</c><00:10:10.860><c> world.</c>

00:10:12.500 --> 00:10:14.779
Do<00:10:12.639><c> we</c><00:10:12.779><c> say</c><00:10:12.960><c> that</c><00:10:13.100><c> with</c><00:10:13.360><c> confidence</c><00:10:13.840><c> and</c><00:10:14.139><c> boldness?</c>

00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:17.559
Ask<00:10:15.519><c> me</c><00:10:15.700><c> about</c><00:10:15.879><c> my</c><00:10:16.220><c> faith</c><00:10:16.399><c> in</c><00:10:16.600><c> him.</c>

00:10:19.340 --> 00:10:21.639
So<00:10:19.860><c> this</c><00:10:19.940><c> is</c><00:10:20.080><c> what</c><00:10:20.200><c> Jesus</c><00:10:20.519><c> says.</c>

00:10:21.940 --> 00:10:24.220
Whoever<00:10:22.039><c> acknowledged</c><00:10:22.679><c> me</c><00:10:23.360><c> before</c><00:10:23.720><c> men,</c>

00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:28.379
I<00:10:24.820><c> will</c><00:10:25.059><c> acknowledge</c><00:10:25.539><c> him</c><00:10:26.240><c> before</c><00:10:26.799><c> my</c><00:10:27.059><c> Father</c><00:10:27.360><c> in</c><00:10:27.580><c> heaven.</c>

00:10:28.980 --> 00:10:32.179
We<00:10:29.279><c> acknowledge</c><00:10:29.659><c> him</c><00:10:29.940><c> in</c><00:10:30.159><c> word</c><00:10:30.600><c> and</c><00:10:31.000><c> deed,</c><00:10:31.940><c> right?</c>

00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:35.940
Prepare<00:10:32.860><c> to</c><00:10:33.460><c> give</c><00:10:33.600><c> an</c><00:10:33.860><c> answer</c><00:10:34.259><c> of</c><00:10:34.720><c> the</c><00:10:34.940><c> faith</c><00:10:35.120><c> that</c><00:10:35.360><c> lies</c><00:10:35.519><c> in</c><00:10:35.779><c> you.</c>

00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:37.539
The<00:10:36.340><c> key</c><00:10:36.500><c> word</c><00:10:36.720><c> is</c><00:10:36.919><c> there,</c><00:10:37.220><c> prepare.</c>

00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:39.419
You've<00:10:38.080><c> got</c><00:10:38.100><c> to</c><00:10:38.220><c> be</c><00:10:38.519><c> prepared.</c>

00:10:39.500 --> 00:10:41.259
I'm<00:10:39.899><c> not</c><00:10:40.059><c> that</c><00:10:40.320><c> confident</c><00:10:40.799><c> in,</c><00:10:41.000><c> you</c><00:10:41.139><c> know,</c>

00:10:41.259 --> 00:10:42.639
talking<00:10:41.559><c> to</c><00:10:41.679><c> people</c><00:10:41.960><c> about</c><00:10:42.179><c> my</c><00:10:42.500><c> faith.</c>

00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:44.480
Well,<00:10:43.360><c> prepare.</c>

00:10:46.659 --> 00:10:48.100
And,<00:10:46.700><c> you</c><00:10:46.840><c> know,</c><00:10:47.240><c> deeds</c><00:10:47.539><c> as</c><00:10:47.899><c> well.</c>

00:10:48.100 --> 00:10:49.559
It's<00:10:48.340><c> not</c><00:10:48.440><c> just</c><00:10:48.740><c> in</c><00:10:48.919><c> the</c><00:10:49.120><c> words.</c>

00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:51.659
It's<00:10:50.320><c> in</c><00:10:50.480><c> our</c><00:10:50.659><c> deeds.</c>

00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:55.000
You<00:10:53.440><c> know,</c><00:10:53.720><c> people</c><00:10:53.940><c> saw</c><00:10:54.259><c> you</c><00:10:54.480><c> this</c><00:10:54.740><c> morning</c>

00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:56.419
leaving<00:10:55.360><c> for</c><00:10:55.659><c> church,</c><00:10:55.940><c> your</c><00:10:56.139><c> neighbors.</c>

00:10:56.600 --> 00:10:57.240
What<00:10:56.740><c> are</c><00:10:56.840><c> they</c><00:10:56.980><c> doing?</c>

00:10:57.559 --> 00:10:58.460
It's<00:10:57.799><c> cold</c><00:10:58.259><c> out.</c>

00:10:58.620 --> 00:10:59.519
It's<00:10:58.740><c> a</c><00:10:58.740><c> lousy</c><00:10:59.139><c> day.</c>

00:10:59.779 --> 00:11:00.940
You've<00:11:00.000><c> got</c><00:11:00.100><c> your</c><00:11:00.299><c> Bible</c><00:11:00.580><c> on</c><00:11:00.840><c> hand.</c>

00:11:01.019 --> 00:11:01.960
Wow.

00:11:02.039 --> 00:11:02.740
They're<00:11:02.440><c> dedicated.</c>

00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:03.840
I<00:11:02.980><c> don't</c><00:11:03.000><c> know</c><00:11:03.080><c> what's</c><00:11:03.320><c> going</c><00:11:03.539><c> on</c><00:11:03.759><c> there,</c>

00:11:03.840 --> 00:11:05.500
but<00:11:03.960><c> they'll</c><00:11:04.200><c> even</c><00:11:04.379><c> get</c><00:11:04.539><c> up</c><00:11:04.679><c> on</c><00:11:04.879><c> a</c><00:11:04.960><c> lousy</c><00:11:05.360><c> day</c>

00:11:05.500 --> 00:11:07.440
when<00:11:05.679><c> they</c><00:11:05.840><c> can</c><00:11:06.139><c> sleep</c><00:11:06.440><c> late</c><00:11:06.740><c> and</c><00:11:06.940><c> stay</c><00:11:07.240><c> in.</c>

00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:08.860
It's<00:11:07.539><c> too</c><00:11:07.860><c> cold.</c>

00:11:12.100 --> 00:11:14.600
And<00:11:12.340><c> Jesus</c><00:11:12.659><c> will</c><00:11:13.000><c> say</c><00:11:13.299><c> on</c><00:11:13.559><c> the</c><00:11:13.700><c> day</c><00:11:13.899><c> of</c><00:11:14.120><c> judgment,</c>

00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:17.559
my<00:11:15.600><c> true</c><00:11:15.840><c> disciple,</c><00:11:17.200><c> come,</c>

00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:20.980
enjoy<00:11:18.379><c> what</c><00:11:18.559><c> my</c><00:11:18.820><c> Father</c><00:11:19.080><c> has</c><00:11:19.399><c> prepared</c><00:11:19.700><c> for</c><00:11:19.940><c> you.</c>

00:11:21.800 --> 00:11:25.139
But<00:11:22.320><c> whosoever</c><00:11:22.840><c> disowns</c><00:11:23.500><c> me</c><00:11:23.860><c> before</c><00:11:24.200><c> men,</c>

00:11:25.480 --> 00:11:28.419
I<00:11:25.720><c> will</c><00:11:26.039><c> disown</c><00:11:26.340><c> him</c><00:11:26.620><c> before</c><00:11:27.220><c> my</c><00:11:27.720><c> Father</c><00:11:28.000><c> in</c><00:11:28.240><c> Heaven</c>

00:11:28.419 --> 00:11:30.100
on<00:11:28.659><c> that</c><00:11:28.860><c> day</c><00:11:29.019><c> of</c><00:11:29.279><c> judgment.</c>

00:11:30.379 --> 00:11:31.279
So<00:11:30.659><c> what</c><00:11:30.779><c> does</c><00:11:30.940><c> that</c><00:11:31.139><c> mean?</c>

00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:33.419
Well,<00:11:31.440><c> I</c><00:11:31.779><c> didn't</c><00:11:32.100><c> disown</c><00:11:32.799><c> Jesus.</c>

00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:35.539
I<00:11:34.139><c> never</c><00:11:34.440><c> denounced</c><00:11:35.080><c> him.</c>

00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:37.600
I<00:11:36.120><c> just,</c><00:11:36.379><c> you</c><00:11:36.600><c> know,</c><00:11:36.820><c> kept</c><00:11:36.940><c> my</c><00:11:37.179><c> mouth</c><00:11:37.379><c> shut.</c>

00:11:37.659 --> 00:11:39.240
I<00:11:37.720><c> didn't</c><00:11:37.860><c> want</c><00:11:38.100><c> to</c><00:11:38.159><c> cause</c><00:11:38.399><c> any</c><00:11:38.759><c> controversy.</c>

00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:41.080
I<00:11:39.419><c> didn't</c><00:11:39.539><c> want</c><00:11:39.720><c> to</c><00:11:39.899><c> offend</c><00:11:40.139><c> anybody.</c>

00:11:41.699 --> 00:11:44.200
Well,<00:11:42.500><c> your</c><00:11:42.620><c> silence</c><00:11:42.919><c> is</c><00:11:43.179><c> no</c><00:11:43.379><c> good.</c>

00:11:44.980 --> 00:11:46.639
What<00:11:45.220><c> did</c><00:11:45.440><c> the</c><00:11:45.639><c> man</c><00:11:45.779><c> with</c><00:11:45.980><c> the</c><00:11:46.220><c> talent</c><00:11:46.500><c> do</c>

00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:47.799
who<00:11:46.820><c> buried</c><00:11:47.080><c> it</c><00:11:47.259><c> in</c><00:11:47.360><c> the</c><00:11:47.600><c> ground?</c>

00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:48.820
He<00:11:48.240><c> didn't</c><00:11:48.379><c> do</c><00:11:48.559><c> anything.</c>

00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:50.980
He<00:11:48.960><c> wanted</c><00:11:49.240><c> to</c><00:11:49.500><c> remain</c><00:11:49.840><c> silent.</c>

00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:54.600
Christ<00:11:52.059><c> isn't</c><00:11:52.379><c> looking</c><00:11:52.740><c> for</c><00:11:53.159><c> silent</c><00:11:53.960><c> believers</c>

00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:56.879
who<00:11:55.440><c> won't</c><00:11:55.799><c> profess</c><00:11:56.240><c> his</c><00:11:56.519><c> name.</c>

00:11:57.240 --> 00:11:57.799
There's<00:11:57.480><c> no</c><00:11:57.679><c> good.</c>

00:11:57.879 --> 00:11:58.659
I<00:11:57.980><c> had</c><00:11:58.019><c> one</c><00:11:58.220><c> friend</c><00:11:58.379><c> tell</c><00:11:58.519><c> me,</c>

00:11:58.700 --> 00:11:59.720
well,<00:11:58.980><c> you</c><00:11:59.039><c> know,</c><00:11:59.159><c> I</c><00:11:59.220><c> don't</c><00:11:59.460><c> believe</c>

00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:00.620
what<00:11:59.919><c> the</c><00:12:00.080><c> church</c><00:12:00.259><c> teaches,</c>

00:12:00.700 --> 00:12:02.139
but<00:12:00.879><c> I</c><00:12:01.179><c> just</c><00:12:01.360><c> go</c><00:12:01.519><c> there</c><00:12:01.759><c> anyway.</c>

00:12:02.620 --> 00:12:06.259
He's<00:12:03.080><c> a</c><00:12:03.220><c> one</c><00:12:03.460><c>-man</c><00:12:04.240><c> religion</c><00:12:05.059><c> to</c><00:12:05.279><c> himself.</c>

00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:08.399
That's<00:12:06.860><c> not</c><00:12:07.019><c> what</c><00:12:07.100><c> he's</c><00:12:07.240><c> looking</c><00:12:07.480><c> for.</c>

00:12:08.659 --> 00:12:11.860
There's<00:12:09.179><c> a</c><00:12:09.399><c> cost</c><00:12:09.700><c> of</c><00:12:10.019><c> discipleship.</c>

00:12:12.120 --> 00:12:13.519
The<00:12:12.360><c> world</c><00:12:12.779><c> will</c><00:12:13.039><c> hate</c><00:12:13.200><c> you.</c>

00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:14.899
And<00:12:13.960><c> sometimes</c><00:12:14.240><c> we</c><00:12:14.399><c> want</c><00:12:14.600><c> to</c><00:12:14.759><c> play</c>

00:12:14.899 --> 00:12:16.360
both<00:12:15.120><c> sides</c><00:12:15.440><c> of</c><00:12:15.600><c> the</c><00:12:15.740><c> fence.</c>

00:12:16.779 --> 00:12:19.919
We<00:12:17.179><c> want</c><00:12:17.639><c> the</c><00:12:18.220><c> world</c><00:12:18.539><c> to</c><00:12:18.799><c> love</c><00:12:18.940><c> us,</c>

00:12:20.299 --> 00:12:22.039
and<00:12:20.559><c> we</c><00:12:20.759><c> also</c><00:12:21.100><c> want</c><00:12:21.320><c> to</c><00:12:21.480><c> be</c><00:12:21.720><c> believers</c>

00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:24.480
and<00:12:22.299><c> have</c><00:12:22.460><c> God</c><00:12:22.779><c> and</c><00:12:22.940><c> Jesus</c><00:12:23.399><c> love</c><00:12:23.679><c> us</c><00:12:24.000><c> as</c><00:12:24.220><c> well.</c>

00:12:24.740 --> 00:12:26.080
But<00:12:24.940><c> Jesus</c><00:12:25.200><c> says,</c><00:12:25.460><c> hey,</c><00:12:25.620><c> don't</c><00:12:25.860><c> worry</c>

00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:27.000
if<00:12:26.220><c> the</c><00:12:26.379><c> world</c><00:12:26.519><c> hates</c><00:12:26.759><c> you.</c>

00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:28.220
It<00:12:27.259><c> hated</c><00:12:27.340><c> me</c><00:12:27.600><c> first.</c>

00:12:28.620 --> 00:12:30.480
You're<00:12:29.139><c> in</c><00:12:29.220><c> good</c><00:12:29.440><c> company.</c>

00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:36.100
The<00:12:34.259><c> disciples</c><00:12:34.580><c> were</c><00:12:34.740><c> to</c><00:12:34.879><c> be</c><00:12:35.159><c> bold,</c>

00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:37.700
not<00:12:36.600><c> fearing</c><00:12:36.919><c> persecution</c>

00:12:37.700 --> 00:12:38.679
when<00:12:37.960><c> they</c><00:12:38.139><c> were</c><00:12:38.279><c> preaching.</c>

00:12:39.179 --> 00:12:40.440
And<00:12:39.340><c> Jesus</c><00:12:39.600><c> told</c><00:12:39.840><c> them,</c><00:12:40.159><c> hey,</c>

00:12:40.620 --> 00:12:42.799
rejoice<00:12:41.220><c> that</c><00:12:41.559><c> your</c><00:12:41.840><c> names</c>

00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:45.039

00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:47.340
Your<00:12:45.220><c> names</c><00:12:45.480><c> are</c><00:12:45.679><c> in</c><00:12:45.779><c> the</c><00:12:45.899><c> Book</c><00:12:46.059><c> of</c><00:12:46.240><c> Life.</c>

00:12:48.539 --> 00:12:49.059
Well,<00:12:48.679><c> guess</c><00:12:48.860><c> what?</c>

00:12:49.080 --> 00:12:50.200
So<00:12:49.259><c> are</c><00:12:49.399><c> our</c><00:12:49.600><c> names</c>

00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:52.240

00:12:52.360 --> 00:12:53.000
And<00:12:52.539><c> guess</c><00:12:52.720><c> what?</c>

00:12:53.299 --> 00:12:55.179
We<00:12:53.480><c> don't</c><00:12:53.700><c> fear</c><00:12:53.940><c> persecution.</c>

00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.080
We're<00:12:55.500><c> not</c><00:12:55.620><c> persecuted</c><00:12:56.620><c> today,</c>

00:12:58.159 --> 00:12:59.820
not<00:12:58.440><c> here</c><00:12:58.620><c> in</c><00:12:58.740><c> America.</c>

00:13:00.460 --> 00:13:02.919
Alls<00:13:00.759><c> we're</c><00:13:01.039><c> fearing</c><00:13:01.360><c> is,</c>

00:13:03.179 --> 00:13:04.620
you<00:13:03.620><c> know,</c><00:13:04.100><c> they</c><00:13:04.220><c> might</c><00:13:04.419><c> think</c>

00:13:04.620 --> 00:13:06.740
I'm<00:13:04.779><c> a</c><00:13:04.980><c> religious</c><00:13:05.379><c> freak</c><00:13:05.700><c> or</c><00:13:05.940><c> something.</c>

00:13:07.179 --> 00:13:09.679
You<00:13:07.679><c> know,</c><00:13:08.139><c> I</c><00:13:08.240><c> want</c><00:13:08.419><c> to</c><00:13:08.620><c> fit</c><00:13:08.759><c> in.</c>

00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:12.740
I<00:13:09.919><c> don't</c><00:13:10.059><c> want</c><00:13:10.200><c> to</c><00:13:10.419><c> stand</c><00:13:10.720><c> out</c>

00:13:12.759 --> 00:13:14.399
what<00:13:13.259><c> we're</c><00:13:13.500><c> supposed</c><00:13:13.840><c> to.</c>

00:13:14.580 --> 00:13:16.000
Stand<00:13:15.059><c> out.</c>

00:13:16.460 --> 00:13:19.240
There's<00:13:16.840><c> a</c><00:13:17.059><c> cost</c><00:13:17.440><c> of</c><00:13:17.679><c> our</c><00:13:17.940><c> discipleship.</c>

00:13:19.899 --> 00:13:20.759
You<00:13:19.960><c> know,</c><00:13:20.120><c> we</c><00:13:20.200><c> don't</c><00:13:20.379><c> want</c><00:13:20.500><c> to</c><00:13:20.639><c> be</c>

00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:23.830
like<00:13:21.159><c> some</c><00:13:22.919><c> of</c><00:13:23.120><c> the</c><00:13:23.179><c> church</c><00:13:23.580><c> leaders</c>

00:13:24.139 --> 00:13:26.700
who<00:13:24.519><c> said</c><00:13:24.679><c> they</c><00:13:25.139><c> believed</c><00:13:25.700><c> on</c><00:13:26.059><c> Jesus,</c>

00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:29.919
but<00:13:27.059><c> out</c><00:13:27.259><c> of</c><00:13:27.500><c> fear</c><00:13:27.639><c> of</c><00:13:27.899><c> the</c><00:13:28.139><c> Pharisees</c>

00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:31.860
and<00:13:30.259><c> being</c><00:13:30.480><c> put</c><00:13:30.779><c> out</c><00:13:30.980><c> of</c><00:13:31.120><c> the</c><00:13:31.340><c> synagogue,</c>

00:13:31.860 --> 00:13:35.399
they<00:13:32.500><c> wouldn't</c><00:13:32.980><c> confess</c><00:13:33.580><c> the</c><00:13:33.759><c> name</c><00:13:34.000><c> of</c><00:13:34.200><c> Jesus</c>

00:13:35.740 --> 00:13:40.460
because<00:13:36.340><c> they</c><00:13:36.879><c> sought</c><00:13:37.679><c> the</c><00:13:38.360><c> approval</c><00:13:38.879><c> of</c><00:13:39.440><c> man,</c>

00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:42.059
the<00:13:40.899><c> praises</c><00:13:41.259><c> of</c><00:13:41.500><c> man</c><00:13:41.759><c> more</c>

00:13:42.379 --> 00:13:44.659
than<00:13:42.799><c> the</c><00:13:43.000><c> praises</c><00:13:43.419><c> of</c><00:13:43.620><c> God.</c>

00:13:45.100 --> 00:13:48.340
So<00:13:45.320><c> that's</c><00:13:45.440><c> not</c><00:13:45.659><c> what</c><00:13:45.759><c> we</c><00:13:46.059><c> want</c><00:13:46.259><c> to</c><00:13:46.399><c> do,</c><00:13:47.840><c> right?</c>

00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:55.100
It'll<00:13:54.799><c> work.</c>

00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:55.860
There<00:13:55.379><c> we</c><00:13:55.559><c> go.</c>

00:13:56.340 --> 00:13:57.320
Okay,<00:13:56.600><c> so</c><00:13:56.720><c> there's</c><00:13:56.879><c> reasons</c>

00:13:57.320 --> 00:13:58.720
for<00:13:57.559><c> writing</c><00:13:57.980><c> the</c><00:13:58.200><c> letter</c>

00:13:58.720 --> 00:14:01.039
that<00:13:59.899><c> your</c><00:14:00.220><c> joy</c><00:14:00.379><c> may</c><00:14:00.639><c> be</c><00:14:00.919><c> full.</c>

00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:03.519
Now<00:14:01.259><c> there's</c><00:14:02.039><c> a</c><00:14:02.419><c> split</c><00:14:02.620><c> in</c><00:14:02.879><c> the</c><00:14:03.179><c> Ecclesia</c>

00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:04.639
that<00:14:03.700><c> we'll</c><00:14:03.919><c> get</c><00:14:04.200><c> to.</c>

00:14:05.100 --> 00:14:06.700
I<00:14:05.320><c> don't</c><00:14:05.519><c> know</c><00:14:05.620><c> if</c><00:14:05.700><c> it's</c><00:14:05.940><c> a</c><00:14:06.080><c> 50</c><00:14:06.340><c>-50,</c>

60<00:14:07.080><c>-40,</c><00:14:07.559><c> 70</c><00:14:07.879><c>-30,</c>

00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:10.480
but<00:14:09.080><c> some</c><00:14:09.539><c> of</c><00:14:09.779><c> the,</c><00:14:10.080><c> you</c><00:14:10.240><c> know,</c>

00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:11.299
and<00:14:10.700><c> there's</c><00:14:10.919><c> a</c><00:14:11.179><c> split.</c>

00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:13.840
I've<00:14:11.519><c> never</c><00:14:11.759><c> been</c><00:14:12.000><c> through</c><00:14:12.200><c> a</c><00:14:12.500><c> split</c><00:14:12.600><c> in</c><00:14:12.779><c> Ecclesia,</c>

00:14:14.000 --> 00:14:16.240
but<00:14:14.200><c> I</c><00:14:14.299><c> can</c><00:14:14.500><c> imagine</c><00:14:14.779><c> it's</c><00:14:15.019><c> pretty</c><00:14:15.240><c> painful</c>

00:14:16.299 --> 00:14:17.960
for<00:14:16.779><c> all</c><00:14:16.980><c> members.</c>

00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:19.980
And<00:14:18.379><c> so</c><00:14:18.440><c> he</c><00:14:18.559><c> wants</c><00:14:18.779><c> to</c><00:14:19.059><c> remind</c><00:14:19.320><c> them</c><00:14:19.519><c> of</c><00:14:19.779><c> the,</c>

00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.019
you<00:14:20.100><c> know,</c><00:14:20.279><c> this</c><00:14:20.500><c> is</c><00:14:20.779><c> supposed</c><00:14:20.940><c> to</c><00:14:21.120><c> be</c><00:14:21.440><c> joyous.</c>

00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:24.360
Remember<00:14:22.720><c> when</c><00:14:22.860><c> you</c><00:14:23.059><c> first</c><00:14:23.299><c> came</c><00:14:23.559><c> into</c><00:14:23.820><c> the</c><00:14:24.139><c> truth,</c>

00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:26.379
when<00:14:24.759><c> it</c><00:14:24.899><c> was</c><00:14:25.179><c> first</c><00:14:25.539><c> explained</c><00:14:25.980><c> to</c><00:14:26.240><c> you</c>

00:14:26.379 --> 00:14:28.919
and<00:14:26.460><c> that</c><00:14:26.820><c> excitement</c><00:14:27.259><c> and</c><00:14:27.460><c> that</c><00:14:27.820><c> joy,</c>

00:14:29.899 --> 00:14:33.279
and<00:14:30.539><c> he's</c><00:14:30.720><c> going</c><00:14:30.879><c> to</c><00:14:31.100><c> expose</c><00:14:31.419><c> the</c><00:14:31.700><c> false</c><00:14:32.059><c> doctrine,</c><00:14:32.840><c> right?</c>

00:14:33.419 --> 00:14:37.460
The<00:14:33.720><c> nature</c><00:14:34.220><c> of</c><00:14:34.620><c> Christ</c><00:14:35.080><c> is</c><00:14:35.399><c> what's</c><00:14:35.779><c> being</c><00:14:36.139><c> talked</c><00:14:36.519><c> about.</c>

00:14:38.100 --> 00:14:40.799
He's<00:14:38.360><c> going</c><00:14:38.500><c> to</c><00:14:38.639><c> bear</c><00:14:38.820><c> witness</c><00:14:39.159><c> to</c><00:14:39.399><c> the</c><00:14:39.700><c> humanity</c><00:14:40.139><c> of</c><00:14:40.460><c> Christ.</c>

00:14:41.059 --> 00:14:43.200
He's<00:14:41.299><c> going</c><00:14:41.500><c> to</c><00:14:41.779><c> reaffirm</c><00:14:42.659><c> to</c><00:14:42.860><c> them</c>

00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:45.279
those<00:14:43.679><c> who</c><00:14:44.019><c> remained</c><00:14:44.340><c> in</c><00:14:44.539><c> the</c><00:14:44.799><c> Ecclesia</c>

00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:46.840
that<00:14:45.980><c> you've</c><00:14:46.299><c> got</c><00:14:46.440><c> the</c><00:14:46.700><c> truth</c>

00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:48.139
and<00:14:46.980><c> you've</c><00:14:47.240><c> had</c><00:14:47.340><c> it</c><00:14:47.519><c> from</c><00:14:47.639><c> the</c><00:14:47.860><c> beginning.</c>

00:14:48.539 --> 00:14:50.139
Nothing<00:14:48.860><c> has</c><00:14:49.200><c> changed,</c><00:14:49.919><c> right?</c>

00:14:50.220 --> 00:14:52.080
The<00:14:50.419><c> Gospel</c><00:14:50.820><c> message</c><00:14:51.259><c> doesn't</c><00:14:51.620><c> change.</c>

00:14:52.440 --> 00:14:54.460
God<00:14:52.759><c> does</c><00:14:53.100><c> not</c><00:14:53.340><c> change.</c>

00:14:56.460 --> 00:14:57.200
Sin<00:14:56.740><c> not.</c>

00:14:57.200 --> 00:14:59.840
Walk<00:14:58.059><c> in</c><00:14:58.259><c> the</c><00:14:58.440><c> light,</c><00:14:58.840><c> not</c><00:14:58.840><c> in</c><00:14:59.080><c> the</c><00:14:59.299><c> darkness,</c><00:14:59.740><c> right?</c>

00:14:59.840 --> 00:15:00.659
We<00:15:00.080><c> walk</c><00:15:00.220><c> in</c><00:15:00.379><c> the</c><00:15:00.519><c> light.</c>

00:15:00.820 --> 00:15:02.659
We're<00:15:00.840><c> going</c><00:15:01.000><c> by</c><00:15:01.240><c> God's</c><00:15:01.759><c> ways.</c>

00:15:03.179 --> 00:15:05.320
We<00:15:03.480><c> follow</c><00:15:03.879><c> His</c><00:15:04.179><c> commandments.</c>

00:15:05.419 --> 00:15:06.440
We<00:15:05.580><c> walk</c><00:15:05.840><c> in</c><00:15:06.059><c> darkness</c>

00:15:06.440 --> 00:15:08.379
while<00:15:06.700><c> we're</c><00:15:06.919><c> going</c><00:15:07.080><c> to</c><00:15:07.179><c> choose</c><00:15:07.360><c> our</c><00:15:07.580><c> own</c><00:15:07.779><c> path,</c>

00:15:08.799 --> 00:15:12.179
and<00:15:09.059><c> ultimately</c><00:15:09.419><c> we</c><00:15:09.759><c> break</c><00:15:10.039><c> the</c><00:15:10.360><c> commandments</c><00:15:10.799><c> of</c><00:15:11.200><c> God.</c>

00:15:12.279 --> 00:15:15.600
Because<00:15:12.440><c> what's</c><00:15:12.720><c> being</c><00:15:13.059><c> taught</c><00:15:13.299><c> is</c><00:15:13.580><c> that</c><00:15:13.899><c> sin</c><00:15:14.120><c> is</c><00:15:14.379><c> not</c><00:15:14.559><c> important.</c>

00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:17.679
That's<00:15:16.159><c> part</c><00:15:16.360><c> of</c><00:15:16.559><c> the</c><00:15:16.799><c> division.</c>

00:15:18.419 --> 00:15:20.600
And<00:15:18.639><c> John</c><00:15:18.820><c> is</c><00:15:19.100><c> saying,</c><00:15:19.740><c> no.</c>

00:15:21.139 --> 00:15:23.460
Walk<00:15:21.360><c> in</c><00:15:21.539><c> the</c><00:15:21.700><c> light</c><00:15:21.840><c> because</c><00:15:22.000><c> he's</c><00:15:22.340><c> in</c><00:15:22.500><c> the</c><00:15:22.620><c> light.</c>

00:15:23.779 --> 00:15:25.539
Love<00:15:24.019><c> the</c><00:15:24.279><c> brotherhood.</c>

00:15:25.879 --> 00:15:26.860
That's<00:15:26.200><c> going</c><00:15:26.299><c> to</c><00:15:26.379><c> be</c><00:15:26.500><c> a</c><00:15:26.639><c> focus.</c>

00:15:26.860 --> 00:15:29.220
Love<00:15:27.120><c> the</c><00:15:27.379><c> brotherhood,</c><00:15:28.340><c> not</c><00:15:28.440><c> the</c><00:15:28.700><c> world.</c>

00:15:29.720 --> 00:15:31.740
And<00:15:29.899><c> he's</c><00:15:29.960><c> going</c><00:15:30.159><c> to</c><00:15:30.279><c> assure</c><00:15:30.639><c> them</c><00:15:30.799><c> of</c><00:15:31.019><c> their</c><00:15:31.240><c> salvation.</c>

00:15:31.860 --> 00:15:35.080
You<00:15:32.159><c> have</c><00:15:33.259><c> eternal</c><00:15:34.059><c> life.</c>

00:15:36.799 --> 00:15:39.299
And<00:15:37.100><c> he's</c><00:15:37.259><c> going</c><00:15:37.360><c> to</c><00:15:37.500><c> promote</c><00:15:37.720><c> fellowship</c><00:15:38.220><c> with</c><00:15:38.480><c> the</c><00:15:38.659><c> Apostles.</c>

00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:43.200
Again,<00:15:39.799><c> the</c><00:15:39.919><c> Apostles,</c><00:15:40.799><c> highly</c><00:15:41.139><c> esteemed,</c><00:15:41.679><c> highly</c><00:15:42.019><c> respected.</c>

00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:46.080
And<00:15:43.799><c> of</c><00:15:43.940><c> course,</c><00:15:44.460><c> the</c><00:15:44.620><c> fellowship</c><00:15:44.919><c> is</c><00:15:45.139><c> also</c><00:15:45.399><c> with</c><00:15:45.600><c> the</c><00:15:45.820><c> Son</c>

00:15:46.420 --> 00:15:48.159
and<00:15:46.940><c> with</c><00:15:47.139><c> the</c><00:15:47.340><c> Father.</c>

00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:54.340
So<00:15:50.759><c> what</c><00:15:51.039><c> was</c><00:15:51.279><c> the</c><00:15:51.360><c> big</c><00:15:51.580><c> challenge</c><00:15:52.500><c> to</c><00:15:53.200><c> the</c><00:15:53.460><c> truth</c><00:15:53.740><c> and</c><00:15:54.080><c> for</c>

00:15:54.340 --> 00:15:55.320
the<00:15:54.580><c> Apostles?</c>

00:15:55.320 --> 00:15:57.419
It<00:15:55.720><c> was</c><00:15:56.259><c> Gnosticism.</c>

00:15:57.860 --> 00:16:01.100
Gnosis<00:15:58.299><c> in</c><00:15:58.620><c> the</c><00:15:58.779><c> Greek</c><00:15:58.940><c> meaning</c><00:15:59.200><c> knowledge</c><00:15:59.759><c> or</c><00:16:00.039><c> insight.</c>

00:16:01.379 --> 00:16:03.679
It's<00:16:01.480><c> a</c><00:16:01.580><c> name</c><00:16:01.740><c> given</c><00:16:02.019><c> to</c><00:16:02.279><c> a</c><00:16:02.360><c> loosely</c><00:16:02.679><c> organized</c><00:16:03.159><c> religious</c>

00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:05.840
and<00:16:04.039><c> philosophical</c><00:16:04.740><c> movement.</c>

00:16:06.200 --> 00:16:08.919
It<00:16:06.399><c> flourished</c><00:16:06.759><c> in</c><00:16:06.960><c> the</c><00:16:07.080><c> first</c><00:16:07.299><c> and</c><00:16:07.559><c> second</c><00:16:07.740><c> centuries.</c>

00:16:09.399 --> 00:16:12.759
This<00:16:10.019><c> type</c><00:16:10.419><c> of</c><00:16:10.639><c> thinking</c><00:16:10.799><c> was</c><00:16:11.059><c> present</c><00:16:11.360><c> in</c><00:16:11.639><c> paganism,</c><00:16:12.299><c> Judaism,</c>

00:16:12.899 --> 00:16:15.720
and<00:16:13.080><c> made</c><00:16:13.259><c> inroads</c><00:16:13.679><c> into</c><00:16:14.120><c> early</c><00:16:14.500><c> Christianity.</c>

00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:20.139
The<00:16:16.279><c> Gnostics'</c><00:16:16.779><c> beliefs</c><00:16:17.279><c> clashed</c><00:16:17.820><c> strongly</c><00:16:18.320><c> with</c><00:16:18.639><c> Christian</c><00:16:19.059><c> doctrine,</c>

00:16:20.259 --> 00:16:23.679
causing<00:16:20.600><c> early</c><00:16:21.080><c> church</c><00:16:21.460><c> leaders</c><00:16:21.799><c> to</c><00:16:22.240><c> become</c><00:16:22.460><c> embroiled</c><00:16:23.000><c> in</c><00:16:23.259><c> debates</c>

00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:25.220
over<00:16:23.960><c> the</c><00:16:24.279><c> issues.</c>

00:16:25.259 --> 00:16:28.120
And<00:16:25.360><c> by</c><00:16:25.519><c> the</c><00:16:25.700><c> second</c><00:16:25.899><c> century,</c><00:16:26.559><c> many</c><00:16:26.659><c> Gnostics</c><00:16:27.159><c> broke</c><00:16:27.519><c> away</c>

00:16:28.120 --> 00:16:30.679
or<00:16:28.659><c> were</c><00:16:28.940><c> expelled</c><00:16:29.220><c> by</c><00:16:29.559><c> the</c><00:16:29.779><c> church.</c>

00:16:30.860 --> 00:16:34.419
So<00:16:31.159><c> they</c><00:16:31.539><c> formed</c><00:16:31.980><c> alternative</c><00:16:32.980><c> Christian</c><00:16:33.620><c> churches,</c>

00:16:34.860 --> 00:16:38.039
blending<00:16:35.299><c> their</c><00:16:35.720><c> ideas</c><00:16:36.399><c> with</c><00:16:36.759><c> Christian</c><00:16:37.240><c> teachings,</c><00:16:37.879><c> right?</c>

00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:41.539
And<00:16:38.299><c> that's</c><00:16:39.179><c> where</c><00:16:39.399><c> we</c><00:16:39.679><c> have</c><00:16:39.860><c> the</c><00:16:40.100><c> start</c><00:16:40.259><c> of</c><00:16:40.480><c> the</c><00:16:40.679><c> apostasy,</c><00:16:41.379><c> right?</c>

00:16:41.899 --> 00:16:44.019
Blending<00:16:42.460><c> ideas,</c><00:16:43.340><c> right?</c>

00:16:44.419 --> 00:16:45.679
Christianity<00:16:44.919><c> had</c><00:16:45.100><c> its</c><00:16:45.379><c> purists.</c>

00:16:45.820 --> 00:16:46.899
The<00:16:45.980><c> Gospel</c><00:16:46.299><c> had</c><00:16:46.460><c> its</c><00:16:46.659><c> purists.</c>

00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:49.240
It<00:16:47.080><c> doesn't</c><00:16:47.320><c> need</c><00:16:47.620><c> anything</c><00:16:48.039><c> to</c><00:16:48.240><c> be</c><00:16:48.460><c> blended</c><00:16:48.620><c> into</c><00:16:48.980><c> it.</c>

00:16:49.620 --> 00:16:51.500
But<00:16:49.779><c> of</c><00:16:49.960><c> course,</c><00:16:50.139><c> that's</c><00:16:50.440><c> just</c><00:16:50.759><c> the</c><00:16:50.860><c> nature</c><00:16:51.100><c> of</c><00:16:51.379><c> man.</c>

00:16:51.500 --> 00:16:55.559
We<00:16:51.700><c> start</c><00:16:51.879><c> to</c><00:16:52.179><c> blend</c><00:16:52.460><c> these</c><00:16:52.799><c> other</c><00:16:53.059><c> ideas</c><00:16:53.820><c> into</c><00:16:54.580><c> it.</c>

00:16:55.659 --> 00:16:57.240
So<00:16:55.840><c> what</c><00:16:55.960><c> did</c><00:16:56.080><c> they</c><00:16:56.340><c> believe?</c>

00:16:57.679 --> 00:17:00.639
Well,<00:16:57.879><c> they</c><00:16:58.120><c> believed</c><00:16:58.360><c> that</c><00:16:58.539><c> they</c><00:16:58.700><c> had</c><00:16:58.820><c> this</c><00:16:59.200><c> special</c><00:16:59.759><c> knowledge</c>

00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:03.080
from<00:17:01.240><c> God,</c><00:17:02.799><c> right?</c>

00:17:03.100 --> 00:17:06.960
So<00:17:03.500><c> within</c><00:17:04.599><c> the</c><00:17:04.920><c> Ecclesia,</c><00:17:05.420><c> there</c><00:17:05.579><c> would</c><00:17:05.759><c> be</c><00:17:06.019><c> kind</c><00:17:06.140><c> of</c><00:17:06.279><c> two</c><00:17:06.480><c> groups.</c>

00:17:07.220 --> 00:17:10.440
There<00:17:07.319><c> would</c><00:17:07.480><c> be</c><00:17:07.640><c> the</c><00:17:08.220><c> elite</c><00:17:08.599><c> group</c><00:17:09.059><c> that</c><00:17:09.779><c> received</c>

00:17:10.440 --> 00:17:11.759
this<00:17:10.799><c> special</c><00:17:11.119><c> knowledge.</c>

00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:14.180
And<00:17:12.180><c> then</c><00:17:12.339><c> there'd</c><00:17:12.480><c> just</c><00:17:12.740><c> be</c><00:17:12.900><c> the</c><00:17:13.180><c> others,</c><00:17:13.420><c> the</c><00:17:13.680><c> common</c><00:17:13.920><c> people.</c>

00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:16.160
They<00:17:14.339><c> didn't</c><00:17:14.519><c> receive</c><00:17:14.960><c> it.</c>

00:17:16.640 --> 00:17:18.960
Only<00:17:16.920><c> a</c><00:17:17.200><c> select</c><00:17:17.440><c> few</c><00:17:17.740><c> got</c><00:17:18.019><c> this</c><00:17:18.299><c> special</c><00:17:18.599><c> knowledge.</c>

00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:22.880
And<00:17:19.099><c> you</c><00:17:19.279><c> needed</c><00:17:19.579><c> this</c><00:17:20.000><c> knowledge</c><00:17:20.400><c> if</c><00:17:20.599><c> you</c><00:17:20.799><c> wanted</c><00:17:21.000><c> to</c><00:17:21.319><c> be</c><00:17:21.819><c> saved.</c>

00:17:24.180 --> 00:17:27.599
It<00:17:24.259><c> was</c><00:17:24.460><c> knowledge</c><00:17:25.220><c> of</c><00:17:25.700><c> a</c><00:17:25.920><c> faith</c><00:17:26.279><c> in</c><00:17:26.720><c> works.</c>

00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:29.799
They<00:17:28.579><c> believed</c><00:17:28.799><c> in</c><00:17:29.119><c> dualism.</c>

00:17:30.180 --> 00:17:32.259
The<00:17:30.420><c> world</c><00:17:30.640><c> was</c><00:17:30.940><c> divided</c><00:17:31.400><c> into</c><00:17:31.680><c> the</c><00:17:31.960><c> physical</c>

00:17:32.259 --> 00:17:34.380
and<00:17:32.480><c> the</c><00:17:32.779><c> spiritual</c><00:17:33.279><c> realm.</c>

00:17:34.460 --> 00:17:36.480
The<00:17:34.720><c> physical</c><00:17:35.079><c> was</c><00:17:35.359><c> no</c><00:17:35.660><c> good.</c>

00:17:36.779 --> 00:17:39.099
The<00:17:37.180><c> spiritual</c><00:17:37.700><c> was</c><00:17:38.160><c> good.</c>

00:17:39.400 --> 00:17:42.559
Thus,<00:17:39.960><c> God</c><00:17:40.119><c> the</c><00:17:40.380><c> Creator</c><00:17:40.940><c> was</c><00:17:41.640><c> a</c><00:17:41.839><c> lesser</c><00:17:42.119><c> God</c>

00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:44.319
than<00:17:42.819><c> Jesus</c><00:17:43.420><c> the</c><00:17:43.839><c> Redeemer.</c>

00:17:44.420 --> 00:17:46.880
Jesus<00:17:44.779><c> was</c><00:17:45.079><c> the</c><00:17:45.400><c> spiritual</c><00:17:45.920><c> God.</c>

00:17:50.079 --> 00:17:53.380
The<00:17:50.740><c> elite</c><00:17:51.140><c> have</c><00:17:51.640><c> transcended</c><00:17:52.640><c> the</c><00:17:52.960><c> physical,</c>

00:17:53.779 --> 00:17:56.900
and<00:17:53.920><c> they've</c><00:17:54.220><c> moved</c><00:17:54.559><c> into</c><00:17:54.900><c> the</c><00:17:55.200><c> spiritual</c><00:17:55.839><c> realm.</c>

00:17:56.960 --> 00:17:58.839
They're<00:17:57.079><c> beyond</c><00:17:57.500><c> the</c><00:17:57.759><c> physical</c><00:17:58.119><c> world,</c>

00:17:59.259 --> 00:18:02.039
in<00:17:59.460><c> the</c><00:17:59.779><c> spiritual</c><00:18:00.180><c> world,</c><00:18:00.539><c> which</c><00:18:00.759><c> is</c><00:18:01.079><c> good.</c>

00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:05.380
Thus,<00:18:03.359><c> they</c><00:18:03.579><c> were</c><00:18:03.880><c> indifferent</c><00:18:04.279><c> to</c><00:18:04.619><c> sin.</c>

00:18:05.539 --> 00:18:07.839
They<00:18:05.700><c> had</c><00:18:05.900><c> no</c><00:18:06.240><c> moral</c><00:18:06.619><c> restraints</c><00:18:07.019><c> because</c><00:18:07.180><c> it</c><00:18:07.299><c> didn't</c><00:18:07.539><c> matter.</c>

00:18:07.859 --> 00:18:09.579
We've<00:18:08.240><c> moved</c><00:18:08.500><c> on</c><00:18:08.859><c> beyond</c><00:18:09.119><c> the</c><00:18:09.359><c> physical.</c>

00:18:09.640 --> 00:18:11.119
We<00:18:09.779><c> can</c><00:18:10.039><c> experience</c><00:18:10.680><c> sin.</c>

00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:13.000
It's<00:18:11.619><c> not</c><00:18:11.799><c> a</c><00:18:11.920><c> big</c><00:18:12.079><c> deal.</c>

00:18:13.019 --> 00:18:15.960
We're<00:18:13.240><c> already</c><00:18:13.940><c> into</c><00:18:14.279><c> the</c><00:18:14.559><c> spiritual</c><00:18:15.019><c> realm.</c>

00:18:16.059 --> 00:18:20.019
The<00:18:16.619><c> seeds</c><00:18:17.059><c> of</c><00:18:17.279><c> the</c><00:18:17.460><c> apostasy</c><00:18:17.980><c> are</c><00:18:18.240><c> planted</c><00:18:18.460><c> early</c><00:18:18.920><c> on.</c>

00:18:20.299 --> 00:18:22.700
So<00:18:20.720><c> what</c><00:18:20.980><c> do</c><00:18:21.099><c> you</c><00:18:21.259><c> think</c><00:18:21.400><c> of</c><00:18:21.579><c> the</c><00:18:21.880><c> doctrine</c><00:18:22.279><c> today</c>

00:18:22.700 --> 00:18:25.079
that<00:18:22.900><c> gets</c><00:18:23.140><c> promoted</c><00:18:23.559><c> by</c><00:18:23.799><c> the</c><00:18:24.000><c> charismatic</c><00:18:24.599><c> movement</c>

00:18:25.079 --> 00:18:27.460
of<00:18:25.779><c> once</c><00:18:26.259><c> saved,</c><00:18:26.579><c> always</c><00:18:27.019><c> saved?</c>

00:18:27.660 --> 00:18:28.579
Sounds<00:18:28.019><c> familiar.</c>

00:18:28.940 --> 00:18:30.039
Don't<00:18:29.140><c> worry</c><00:18:29.400><c> about</c><00:18:29.700><c> sin.</c>

00:18:30.380 --> 00:18:32.000
We're<00:18:30.920><c> already</c><00:18:31.519><c> saved.</c>

00:18:32.099 --> 00:18:34.799
We've<00:18:32.420><c> moved</c><00:18:32.640><c> on</c><00:18:32.920><c> to</c><00:18:33.059><c> the</c><00:18:33.299><c> spiritual</c><00:18:33.640><c> world.</c>

00:18:35.259 --> 00:18:37.519
Of<00:18:35.460><c> course,</c><00:18:35.579><c> we</c><00:18:35.740><c> don't</c><00:18:36.000><c> subscribe</c><00:18:36.700><c> to</c><00:18:36.900><c> the</c><00:18:37.059><c> once</c><00:18:37.259><c> saved,</c>

00:18:37.519 --> 00:18:38.259
always<00:18:37.940><c> saved.</c>

00:18:38.539 --> 00:18:40.420
What<00:18:38.700><c> happened</c><00:18:38.960><c> to</c><00:18:39.140><c> enduring</c><00:18:39.519><c> to</c><00:18:39.779><c> the</c><00:18:39.980><c> end,</c>

00:18:40.819 --> 00:18:44.079
in<00:18:41.000><c> crucifying</c><00:18:41.519><c> in</c><00:18:41.680><c> the</c><00:18:41.859><c> flesh,</c><00:18:42.339><c> walking</c><00:18:42.740><c> in</c><00:18:42.980><c> the</c><00:18:43.160><c> light?</c>

00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:50.440
And<00:18:48.559><c> then</c><00:18:48.759><c> this</c><00:18:49.200><c> doetism?</c>

00:18:50.539 --> 00:18:53.019
I<00:18:50.759><c> could</c><00:18:51.000><c> be</c><00:18:51.180><c> mispronouncing</c><00:18:51.779><c> that.</c>

00:18:53.180 --> 00:18:54.700
Kristen,<00:18:53.359><c> what</c><00:18:53.480><c> do</c><00:18:53.559><c> you</c><00:18:53.680><c> think?</c>

00:18:55.360 --> 00:18:57.740
Okay,<00:18:56.279><c> yeah,</c><00:18:56.680><c> yeah.</c>

00:18:58.119 --> 00:19:01.720
So<00:18:58.359><c> this</c><00:18:58.559><c> teaching</c><00:18:58.839><c> was</c><00:18:59.160><c> Christ</c><00:18:59.599><c> did</c><00:18:59.920><c> not</c><00:19:00.180><c> come</c><00:19:00.400><c> in</c><00:19:00.559><c> the</c><00:19:00.819><c> flesh.</c>

00:19:01.960 --> 00:19:05.740
He<00:19:02.160><c> only</c><00:19:02.579><c> seemed</c><00:19:03.259><c> to</c><00:19:04.220><c> come</c><00:19:04.380><c> in</c><00:19:04.579><c> the</c><00:19:04.819><c> flesh.</c>

00:19:06.019 --> 00:19:06.980
He<00:19:06.119><c> was</c><00:19:06.420><c> a</c><00:19:06.700><c> spirit.</c>

00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:08.180
He<00:19:07.079><c> was</c><00:19:07.339><c> an</c><00:19:07.660><c> illusion.</c>

00:19:08.259 --> 00:19:09.859
He<00:19:08.380><c> was</c><00:19:08.720><c> a</c><00:19:08.940><c> phantom.</c>

00:19:10.420 --> 00:19:11.720
He<00:19:10.599><c> wasn't</c><00:19:10.799><c> a</c><00:19:11.019><c> real</c><00:19:11.299><c> man.</c>

00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:13.700
He<00:19:11.920><c> only</c><00:19:12.180><c> just</c><00:19:12.519><c> seemed</c><00:19:12.720><c> to</c><00:19:12.920><c> be.</c>

00:19:15.919 --> 00:19:20.140
And<00:19:16.559><c> then</c><00:19:16.779><c> this</c><00:19:17.220><c> brother</c><00:19:17.660><c> in</c><00:19:17.980><c> Christ,</c><00:19:19.279><c> Sorenthus,</c>

00:19:20.279 --> 00:19:23.180
he<00:19:20.660><c> started</c><00:19:21.019><c> to</c><00:19:21.339><c> teach</c><00:19:21.599><c> that</c><00:19:22.019><c> there</c><00:19:22.200><c> was</c><00:19:22.440><c> a</c><00:19:22.799><c> distinction</c>

00:19:23.180 --> 00:19:26.220
between<00:19:24.220><c> Jesus</c><00:19:24.920><c> and</c><00:19:25.200><c> Christ.</c>

00:19:26.299 --> 00:19:28.799
It<00:19:26.460><c> was</c><00:19:26.720><c> the</c><00:19:26.940><c> man</c><00:19:27.240><c> Jesus</c><00:19:27.660><c> that</c><00:19:28.039><c> died</c><00:19:28.200><c> on</c><00:19:28.420><c> the</c><00:19:28.599><c> cross,</c>

00:19:28.980 --> 00:19:30.839
not<00:19:29.279><c> the</c><00:19:29.480><c> Son</c><00:19:29.660><c> of</c><00:19:29.920><c> God.</c>

00:19:31.400 --> 00:19:36.140
So<00:19:31.640><c> when</c><00:19:31.819><c> Jesus</c><00:19:32.220><c> was</c><00:19:32.579><c> baptized,</c><00:19:33.960><c> Christ</c><00:19:34.299><c> came</c><00:19:34.599><c> into</c><00:19:34.920><c> him.</c>

00:19:36.579 --> 00:19:39.819
But<00:19:36.839><c> before</c><00:19:37.299><c> he</c><00:19:37.420><c> was</c><00:19:37.680><c> crucified,</c><00:19:38.359><c> Christ</c><00:19:38.700><c> left.</c>

00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:42.240
So<00:19:40.279><c> it</c><00:19:40.319><c> was</c><00:19:40.539><c> just</c><00:19:40.839><c> the</c><00:19:41.019><c> man</c><00:19:41.200><c> Jesus.</c>

00:19:42.730 --> 00:19:45.519
We<00:19:43.140><c> still</c><00:19:43.599><c> have</c><00:19:43.920><c> struggles</c><00:19:44.319><c> today</c><00:19:44.799><c> in</c><00:19:44.980><c> Christianity</c>

00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:48.880
about<00:19:46.200><c> the</c><00:19:46.640><c> nature</c><00:19:47.099><c> of</c><00:19:47.579><c> Jesus.</c>

00:19:49.700 --> 00:19:53.039
And<00:19:49.859><c> here's</c><00:19:50.279><c> the</c><00:19:50.579><c> seeds</c><00:19:51.079><c> planted</c><00:19:51.799><c> here</c><00:19:52.140><c> early</c><00:19:52.519><c> on.</c>

00:19:53.299 --> 00:19:57.400
And<00:19:53.440><c> so</c><00:19:53.559><c> this</c><00:19:53.779><c> is</c><00:19:54.000><c> what</c><00:19:54.819><c> the</c><00:19:55.519><c> apostles</c><00:19:56.000><c> were</c><00:19:56.279><c> up</c><00:19:56.460><c> against.</c>

00:19:57.700 --> 00:20:00.799
This<00:19:57.980><c> is</c><00:19:58.180><c> causing</c><00:19:58.539><c> the</c><00:19:59.000><c> split</c><00:19:59.339><c> in</c><00:19:59.680><c> the</c><00:19:59.880><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.200
This<00:20:01.599><c> is</c><00:20:01.740><c> what</c><00:20:01.859><c> Brother</c><00:20:02.119><c> Thomas</c><00:20:02.920><c> writes</c><00:20:03.680><c> in</c><00:20:03.859><c> Eureka</c>

00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:05.799

Remember<00:20:44.320><c> at</c><00:20:44.920><c> Pentecost,</c>

00:20:46.019 --> 00:20:49.880
they<00:20:46.220><c> remained</c><00:20:46.839><c> steadfast</c><00:20:47.880><c> in</c><00:20:48.079><c> the</c><00:20:48.400><c> doctrines</c><00:20:48.880><c> of</c><00:20:49.119><c> the</c><00:20:49.339><c> apostles.</c>

And<00:20:50.240><c> now</c><00:20:50.480><c> it's</c><00:20:50.819><c> like,</c>

00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:53.980
let's<00:20:51.460><c> just</c><00:20:51.940><c> change</c><00:20:52.140><c> those</c><00:20:52.519><c> doctrines</c><00:20:53.019><c> of</c><00:20:53.220><c> the</c><00:20:53.339><c> apostles</c><00:20:53.759><c> a</c>

00:20:53.980 --> 00:20:55.299
little<00:20:54.259><c> bit.</c>

00:20:55.400 --> 00:20:58.240
As<00:20:55.640><c> to</c><00:20:55.940><c> make</c><00:20:56.299><c> the</c><00:20:57.059><c> compound</c><00:20:57.559><c> plattable</c>

00:20:58.240 --> 00:21:01.920

00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:04.359
They<00:21:02.339><c> wanted</c><00:21:02.579><c> to</c><00:21:02.819><c> make</c><00:21:02.920><c> it</c><00:21:03.220><c> popular.</c>

00:21:04.400 --> 00:21:06.640
Thus<00:21:04.660><c> the</c><00:21:04.940><c> thinking</c><00:21:05.180><c> of</c><00:21:05.420><c> the</c><00:21:05.660><c> flesh</c><00:21:05.859><c> set</c><00:21:06.200><c> to</c><00:21:06.500><c> work</c>

00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:10.900

00:21:11.339 --> 00:21:14.400
Make<00:21:11.500><c> it</c><00:21:11.700><c> a</c><00:21:12.140><c> respectable</c><00:21:12.660><c> and</c><00:21:13.059><c> fashionable</c><00:21:13.599><c> profession</c>

00:21:18.259 --> 00:21:20.640
They<00:21:18.500><c> didn't</c><00:21:18.799><c> like</c><00:21:19.059><c> that</c><00:21:19.259><c> they</c><00:21:19.400><c> were</c><00:21:19.559><c> being</c><00:21:19.859><c> mocked.</c>

00:21:20.859 --> 00:21:23.380
You<00:21:21.039><c> follow</c><00:21:21.339><c> words</c><00:21:21.559><c> of</c><00:21:21.759><c> this</c><00:21:21.980><c> guy</c><00:21:22.220><c> Jesus?</c>

00:21:23.539 --> 00:21:25.720
It<00:21:23.740><c> was</c><00:21:23.980><c> persecution.</c><00:21:24.839><c> They</c><00:21:24.980><c> didn't</c><00:21:25.220><c> like</c><00:21:25.440><c> that.</c>

00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:28.759
How<00:21:26.299><c> can</c><00:21:26.519><c> we</c><00:21:26.720><c> make</c><00:21:26.839><c> this</c><00:21:27.220><c> appealing</c><00:21:27.700><c> to</c><00:21:27.920><c> the</c><00:21:28.200><c> world</c>

00:21:28.759 --> 00:21:30.559
so<00:21:29.099><c> that</c><00:21:29.279><c> we</c><00:21:29.500><c> don't</c><00:21:29.859><c> stand</c><00:21:30.319><c> out?</c>

00:21:30.819 --> 00:21:34.420
We<00:21:31.160><c> appeal</c><00:21:31.500><c> to</c><00:21:31.740><c> the</c><00:21:31.980><c> world.</c><00:21:32.200><c> What's</c><00:21:32.599><c> going</c><00:21:32.880><c> on</c><00:21:33.059><c> in</c><00:21:33.299><c> society?</c>

00:21:34.580 --> 00:21:36.920
That's<00:21:35.140><c> what</c><00:21:35.240><c> they</c><00:21:35.420><c> were</c><00:21:35.619><c> trying</c><00:21:35.859><c> to</c><00:21:36.099><c> push.</c>

00:21:37.580 --> 00:21:41.140
Paganism<00:21:38.140><c> was</c><00:21:38.380><c> a</c><00:21:38.579><c> problem,</c><00:21:39.059><c> trying</c><00:21:39.339><c> to</c><00:21:39.519><c> be</c><00:21:39.700><c> brought</c><00:21:39.960><c> into</c><00:21:40.259><c> Christianity.</c>

00:21:41.539 --> 00:21:44.539
Then<00:21:41.720><c> you</c><00:21:41.819><c> have</c><00:21:42.099><c> the</c><00:21:42.339><c> Gentiles</c><00:21:42.880><c> bringing</c><00:21:43.180><c> in</c><00:21:43.619><c> human</c><00:21:43.940><c> reasoning.</c>

00:21:44.940 --> 00:21:47.099
You<00:21:45.019><c> had</c><00:21:45.220><c> the</c><00:21:45.579><c> Judaizes</c><00:21:46.279><c> coming</c><00:21:46.700><c> in,</c>

00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:49.420
bringing<00:21:47.559><c> in</c><00:21:47.839><c> the</c><00:21:48.019><c> law</c><00:21:48.220><c> of</c><00:21:48.460><c> Moses.</c>

The<00:21:49.759><c> apostles</c><00:21:50.140><c> had</c><00:21:50.380><c> a</c><00:21:50.559><c> lot</c><00:21:50.680><c> to</c><00:21:51.000><c> contend</c><00:21:51.420><c> with.</c>

00:21:55.559 --> 00:21:58.319
And<00:21:55.819><c> it</c><00:21:55.880><c> can</c><00:21:56.079><c> still</c><00:21:56.259><c> be</c><00:21:56.500><c> a</c><00:21:56.640><c> problem</c><00:21:56.920><c> today</c><00:21:57.259><c> even</c><00:21:57.519><c> for</c><00:21:57.660><c> our</c><00:21:57.819><c> community.</c>

00:21:58.619 --> 00:22:00.220
We<00:21:58.759><c> want</c><00:21:58.980><c> to</c><00:21:59.200><c> appease</c><00:21:59.539><c> society.</c>

00:22:00.220 --> 00:22:03.259
There's<00:22:00.859><c> always</c><00:22:01.200><c> this</c><00:22:01.880><c> thing</c><00:22:02.299><c> with</c><00:22:02.539><c> science</c>

00:22:03.259 --> 00:22:06.500
that<00:22:03.779><c> we've</c><00:22:04.079><c> got</c><00:22:04.200><c> to</c><00:22:04.420><c> appease</c><00:22:04.960><c> the</c><00:22:05.420><c> scientists.</c>

00:22:06.599 --> 00:22:09.279
But<00:22:06.779><c> we</c><00:22:06.960><c> know</c><00:22:07.180><c> that</c><00:22:07.359><c> the</c><00:22:07.480><c> book</c><00:22:07.660><c> of</c><00:22:08.759><c> the</c><00:22:08.920><c> Scriptures,</c>

00:22:09.299 --> 00:22:11.460
it's<00:22:09.539><c> not</c><00:22:09.720><c> a</c><00:22:09.799><c> book</c><00:22:09.980><c> of</c><00:22:10.299><c> science.</c>

00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:14.000
So<00:22:11.920><c> we</c><00:22:12.039><c> don't</c><00:22:12.200><c> have</c><00:22:12.359><c> to</c><00:22:12.440><c> get</c><00:22:12.559><c> into</c><00:22:12.779><c> the</c><00:22:13.099><c> theistic</c><00:22:13.539><c> evolution.</c>

00:22:14.099 --> 00:22:18.319

00:22:21.079 --> 00:22:22.480
Love<00:22:21.279><c> is</c><00:22:21.539><c> love.</c>

00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:25.460
The<00:22:23.339><c> roles</c><00:22:23.539><c> of</c><00:22:23.799><c> women</c><00:22:24.059><c> in</c><00:22:24.299><c> the</c><00:22:24.500><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:22:29.539 --> 00:22:31.319
They're<00:22:30.059><c> just</c><00:22:30.220><c> roles.</c>

00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:34.039
And<00:22:32.500><c> the</c><00:22:32.660><c> promoting</c><00:22:32.900><c> of</c><00:22:33.099><c> the</c><00:22:33.279><c> social</c><00:22:33.599><c> gospel.</c>

00:22:34.319 --> 00:22:35.900
Social<00:22:34.799><c> justice.</c>

00:22:36.220 --> 00:22:41.460
We're<00:22:36.740><c> going</c><00:22:36.839><c> to</c><00:22:36.960><c> fix</c><00:22:37.299><c> all</c><00:22:37.680><c> the</c><00:22:38.779><c> things</c><00:22:38.960><c> that</c><00:22:39.299><c> trouble</c><00:22:39.700><c> society</c><00:22:40.420><c> today.</c>

00:22:41.660 --> 00:22:43.880
Poverty,<00:22:42.180><c> we're</c><00:22:42.339><c> going</c><00:22:42.440><c> to</c><00:22:42.559><c> get</c><00:22:42.700><c> rid</c><00:22:42.880><c> of</c><00:22:43.039><c> it.</c>

00:22:44.319 --> 00:22:47.640

00:22:48.099 --> 00:22:50.700
That's<00:22:48.619><c> a</c><00:22:48.759><c> different</c><00:22:49.000><c> gospel,</c><00:22:49.759><c> isn't</c><00:22:49.940><c> it?</c>

00:22:52.160 --> 00:22:54.640
So<00:22:52.500><c> we</c><00:22:52.619><c> still</c><00:22:52.839><c> have</c><00:22:53.000><c> those</c><00:22:53.240><c> same</c><00:22:53.480><c> type</c><00:22:53.700><c> of</c><00:22:53.940><c> problems</c><00:22:54.240><c> today,</c>

trying<00:22:54.900><c> to</c><00:22:55.119><c> make</c><00:22:55.319><c> it,</c><00:22:56.220><c> how</c><00:22:56.420><c> can</c><00:22:56.599><c> we</c><00:22:56.680><c> get</c><00:22:56.839><c> more</c><00:22:57.059><c> people?</c>

00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:01.900
Sometimes<00:22:59.519><c> we</c><00:23:00.079><c> look</c><00:23:00.319><c> to</c><00:23:00.559><c> compromise</c><00:23:01.220><c> the</c><00:23:01.579><c> truth.</c>

00:23:02.339 --> 00:23:05.180
Compromise<00:23:02.900><c> what</c><00:23:03.839><c> the</c><00:23:04.119><c> apostles</c><00:23:04.599><c> were</c><00:23:04.859><c> teaching.</c>

00:23:05.579 --> 00:23:07.519
We<00:23:05.759><c> never</c><00:23:05.980><c> want</c><00:23:06.160><c> to</c><00:23:06.279><c> do</c><00:23:06.460><c> that.</c>

00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:13.819
So<00:23:11.119><c> the</c><00:23:11.440><c> split</c><00:23:11.839><c> in</c><00:23:12.480><c> the</c><00:23:12.680><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:20.319
You<00:23:18.180><c> have</c><00:23:18.339><c> heard</c><00:23:18.819><c> that</c><00:23:19.160><c> the</c><00:23:19.400><c> Antichrist</c><00:23:19.799><c> shall</c><00:23:20.079><c> come.</c>

00:23:20.339 --> 00:23:22.180
Even<00:23:20.599><c> now</c><00:23:20.839><c> there</c><00:23:21.000><c> are</c><00:23:21.140><c> many</c><00:23:21.579><c> Antichrists,</c>

by<00:23:22.500><c> which</c><00:23:22.799><c> we</c><00:23:23.259><c> know</c><00:23:23.460><c> it</c><00:23:23.619><c> is</c><00:23:23.779><c> the</c><00:23:23.859><c> last</c><00:23:24.220><c> time.</c>

00:23:24.599 --> 00:23:28.160
They<00:23:25.460><c> went</c><00:23:26.160><c> out</c><00:23:27.119><c> from</c><00:23:27.440><c> us.</c>

00:23:28.579 --> 00:23:30.000
But<00:23:28.720><c> they</c><00:23:29.000><c> would</c><00:23:29.259><c> not</c><00:23:29.480><c> of</c><00:23:29.640><c> us.</c>

00:23:30.259 --> 00:23:34.660
John<00:23:30.500><c> is</c><00:23:30.700><c> saying,</c><00:23:31.319><c> if</c><00:23:32.359><c> they</c><00:23:32.599><c> left,</c><00:23:32.880><c> they</c><00:23:32.920><c> were</c><00:23:33.099><c> never</c><00:23:33.400><c> true</c><00:23:33.680><c> believers.</c>

00:23:35.599 --> 00:23:37.119
They<00:23:36.019><c> went</c><00:23:36.279><c> out.</c>

00:23:37.140 --> 00:23:40.299
I<00:23:37.299><c> don't</c><00:23:37.500><c> know,</c><00:23:37.960><c> I've</c><00:23:38.220><c> never</c><00:23:38.420><c> been</c><00:23:38.680><c> through</c><00:23:39.079><c> a</c><00:23:39.440><c> division,</c>

00:23:42.059 --> 00:23:45.220
Got<00:23:42.200><c> to</c><00:23:42.319><c> be</c><00:23:42.440><c> pretty</c><00:23:42.819><c> devastating</c><00:23:43.339><c> for</c><00:23:43.680><c> everybody</c><00:23:44.019><c> involved.</c>

00:23:46.480 --> 00:23:49.240
Again,<00:23:46.720><c> I</c><00:23:46.819><c> don't</c><00:23:46.960><c> know</c><00:23:47.079><c> if</c><00:23:47.119><c> this</c><00:23:47.359><c> was</c><00:23:47.539><c> a</c><00:23:47.640><c> 50</c><00:23:47.920><c>-50,</c><00:23:48.259><c> 60</c><00:23:48.599><c>-40</c><00:23:49.000><c> split,</c>

70<00:23:49.720><c>-30</c><00:23:50.039><c> split.</c>

00:23:50.460 --> 00:23:52.019
It<00:23:51.059><c> doesn't</c><00:23:51.480><c> really</c><00:23:51.759><c> matter.</c>

00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:55.319
You've<00:23:52.339><c> got</c><00:23:52.559><c> brothers</c><00:23:52.900><c> and</c><00:23:53.259><c> sisters</c><00:23:53.740><c> that</c><00:23:54.859><c> you</c><00:23:55.079><c> know,</c>

and<00:23:55.500><c> all</c><00:23:55.680><c> of</c><00:23:55.859><c> a</c><00:23:55.900><c> sudden</c><00:23:56.019><c> they're</c><00:23:56.240><c> leaving.</c>

00:23:57.240 --> 00:23:59.680
They're<00:23:57.640><c> trying</c><00:23:57.740><c> to</c><00:23:57.960><c> convince</c><00:23:58.339><c> you,</c><00:23:58.720><c> come</c><00:23:58.839><c> with</c><00:23:59.099><c> us.</c>

00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:03.220
They're<00:24:00.019><c> trying</c><00:24:00.299><c> to</c><00:24:00.619><c> seduce</c><00:24:01.220><c> you</c><00:24:02.119><c> to</c><00:24:02.579><c> leave</c><00:24:02.859><c> with</c><00:24:03.079><c> them.</c>

00:24:03.299 --> 00:24:05.099
We've<00:24:03.460><c> got</c><00:24:03.579><c> this</c><00:24:03.839><c> new</c><00:24:04.059><c> doctrine.</c>

00:24:06.019 --> 00:24:08.960
You'd<00:24:06.500><c> have</c><00:24:06.680><c> some</c><00:24:06.940><c> that</c><00:24:07.059><c> are</c><00:24:07.240><c> solid</c><00:24:07.519><c> in</c><00:24:07.680><c> the</c><00:24:07.920><c> faith,</c>

00:24:09.299 --> 00:24:10.519
who<00:24:09.380><c> are</c><00:24:09.619><c> fighting</c><00:24:09.900><c> with</c><00:24:10.180><c> them.</c>

00:24:10.779 --> 00:24:12.359
That<00:24:10.980><c> can</c><00:24:11.180><c> get</c><00:24:11.480><c> heated.</c>

00:24:12.440 --> 00:24:15.259
They<00:24:12.559><c> can</c><00:24:12.740><c> be</c><00:24:12.960><c> hatred,</c><00:24:13.339><c> they</c><00:24:13.420><c> can</c><00:24:13.619><c> be</c><00:24:13.819><c> strong</c><00:24:14.160><c> arguments.</c>

00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:17.059
Then<00:24:15.660><c> you're</c><00:24:15.799><c> also</c><00:24:16.039><c> going</c><00:24:16.160><c> to</c><00:24:16.259><c> have</c><00:24:16.400><c> some</c><00:24:16.660><c> that</c><00:24:16.859><c> are</c>

00:24:18.539 --> 00:24:21.220
They<00:24:18.880><c> might</c><00:24:19.079><c> be</c><00:24:19.319><c> pulled</c><00:24:19.559><c> one</c><00:24:19.859><c> side</c><00:24:20.119><c> or</c><00:24:20.319><c> another.</c>

00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:23.819
They<00:24:21.960><c> might</c><00:24:22.220><c> say,</c><00:24:22.480><c> you</c><00:24:22.619><c> know,</c><00:24:23.000><c> that</c><00:24:23.180><c> brother</c><00:24:23.440><c> and</c><00:24:23.619><c> sister</c>

taught<00:24:24.099><c> me</c><00:24:24.299><c> the</c><00:24:24.500><c> truth</c><00:24:24.619><c> to</c><00:24:24.819><c> begin</c><00:24:25.099><c> with.</c>

00:24:25.940 --> 00:24:26.779
Now<00:24:26.220><c> they're</c><00:24:26.460><c> leaving.</c>

00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:30.900
I<00:24:27.759><c> feel</c><00:24:28.019><c> like</c><00:24:28.180><c> I've</c><00:24:28.559><c> got</c><00:24:28.640><c> a</c><00:24:28.819><c> loyalty</c><00:24:29.279><c> to</c><00:24:30.119><c> them.</c>

00:24:31.079 --> 00:24:32.819

00:24:33.259 --> 00:24:36.359
John<00:24:33.519><c> is</c><00:24:33.779><c> saying,</c><00:24:34.339><c> hey,</c><00:24:34.680><c> they</c><00:24:34.880><c> were</c><00:24:35.019><c> never</c><00:24:35.200><c> true</c><00:24:35.519><c> believers.</c>

00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:40.140

He<00:24:46.059><c> kind</c><00:24:46.220><c> of</c><00:24:46.420><c> repeats</c><00:24:46.779><c> that.</c>

But<00:24:48.460><c> they</c><00:24:48.759><c> went</c><00:24:49.019><c> out.</c>

00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:53.559
Were<00:24:51.700><c> they</c><00:24:51.940><c> lacking</c><00:24:52.359><c> sincerity?</c>

00:24:54.079 --> 00:24:56.400
Did<00:24:54.559><c> they</c><00:24:54.759><c> not</c><00:24:55.140><c> understand</c><00:24:55.740><c> the</c><00:24:56.039><c> commitment</c>

00:24:59.779 --> 00:25:04.500

00:25:04.740 --> 00:25:07.059

so<00:25:16.759><c> I've</c><00:25:17.160><c> got</c><00:25:17.279><c> to</c><00:25:17.420><c> convert.</c>

00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:21.059
And<00:25:19.180><c> so</c><00:25:19.279><c> we</c><00:25:19.359><c> don't</c><00:25:19.940><c> fully</c><00:25:20.240><c> know</c><00:25:20.519><c> all</c><00:25:20.799><c> the</c><00:25:20.940><c> time.</c>

00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:23.240
Then<00:25:21.319><c> there</c><00:25:21.440><c> can</c><00:25:21.619><c> be</c><00:25:21.920><c> circumstances</c><00:25:22.579><c> in</c><00:25:22.819><c> their</c><00:25:23.019><c> life</c>

00:25:23.240 --> 00:25:25.279
that<00:25:23.380><c> they</c><00:25:23.539><c> get</c><00:25:23.799><c> overwhelmed</c><00:25:24.420><c> by,</c>

00:25:25.619 --> 00:25:26.980
and<00:25:25.880><c> then</c><00:25:26.500><c> they</c><00:25:26.779><c> leave.</c>

00:25:27.019 --> 00:25:30.539
And<00:25:27.160><c> of</c><00:25:27.299><c> course,</c><00:25:27.460><c> when</c><00:25:27.619><c> you've</c><00:25:27.920><c> got</c><00:25:28.920><c> someone</c><00:25:29.279><c> promoting</c><00:25:29.980><c> that,</c>

00:25:30.539 --> 00:25:31.099
hey,<00:25:30.720><c> guess</c><00:25:30.940><c> what?</c>

00:25:31.099 --> 00:25:33.079
You<00:25:31.220><c> don't</c><00:25:31.400><c> have</c><00:25:31.579><c> to</c><00:25:31.759><c> crucify</c><00:25:32.180><c> the</c><00:25:32.400><c> flesh</c><00:25:32.579><c> anymore,</c>

00:25:33.380 --> 00:25:34.579
because<00:25:33.599><c> we're</c><00:25:33.859><c> above</c><00:25:34.140><c> that.</c>

00:25:34.900 --> 00:25:35.980
It's<00:25:35.240><c> appealing,</c><00:25:35.619><c> right?</c>

00:25:36.000 --> 00:25:39.779
All<00:25:36.240><c> false</c><00:25:36.539><c> doctrine</c><00:25:37.059><c> appeals</c><00:25:37.759><c> to</c><00:25:38.460><c> the</c><00:25:38.720><c> flesh.</c>

00:25:42.680 --> 00:25:48.319
And<00:25:43.279><c> he</c><00:25:43.460><c> says</c><00:25:43.799><c> that</c><00:25:44.160><c> they</c><00:25:44.680><c> may</c><00:25:44.980><c> be</c><00:25:45.240><c> made</c><00:25:46.000><c> manifest,</c><00:25:47.920><c> right?</c>

00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:50.019
I<00:25:48.640><c> think</c><00:25:48.839><c> maybe</c><00:25:49.200><c> divinely</c><00:25:49.740><c> so.</c>

00:25:50.019 --> 00:25:51.660
They<00:25:50.180><c> were</c><00:25:50.519><c> revealed.</c>

00:25:52.420 --> 00:25:54.759
Jesus<00:25:52.779><c> says,</c><00:25:53.180><c> for</c><00:25:53.359><c> there</c><00:25:53.740><c> is</c><00:25:54.039><c> nothing</c><00:25:54.380><c> covered</c>

00:25:54.759 --> 00:25:57.500
that<00:25:55.000><c> shall</c><00:25:55.180><c> not</c><00:25:55.539><c> be</c><00:25:56.019><c> revealed,</c><00:25:57.059><c> right?</c>

00:25:57.720 --> 00:25:59.940
So<00:25:58.059><c> God</c><00:25:58.740><c> may</c><00:25:59.099><c> be</c><00:25:59.259><c> sending</c><00:25:59.460><c> the</c><00:25:59.759><c> angels.</c>

00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:01.420
Hey,<00:26:00.460><c> reveal</c><00:26:00.759><c> this</c><00:26:01.099><c> message,</c>

00:26:01.519 --> 00:26:03.220
that<00:26:01.640><c> they're</c><00:26:01.839><c> teaching</c><00:26:02.160><c> a</c><00:26:02.400><c> false</c><00:26:02.700><c> doctrine,</c>

00:26:03.380 --> 00:26:04.779
because<00:26:03.519><c> I</c><00:26:03.680><c> want</c><00:26:03.799><c> to</c><00:26:04.099><c> separate</c><00:26:04.480><c> them.</c>

00:26:04.859 --> 00:26:06.960
He's<00:26:05.140><c> doing</c><00:26:05.339><c> it</c><00:26:05.420><c> for</c><00:26:05.640><c> the</c><00:26:05.900><c> sake</c><00:26:06.099><c> of</c><00:26:06.319><c> the</c><00:26:06.599><c> elect,</c>

00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:10.039
so<00:26:07.640><c> that</c><00:26:07.859><c> they</c><00:26:08.099><c> are</c><00:26:08.400><c> not</c><00:26:09.279><c> seduced,</c>

00:26:10.240 --> 00:26:12.839
they<00:26:10.440><c> are</c><00:26:10.619><c> not</c><00:26:11.140><c> led</c><00:26:11.440><c> astray.</c>

00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:17.359
Again,<00:26:16.059><c> the</c><00:26:16.319><c> nature</c><00:26:16.680><c> of</c><00:26:16.940><c> Jesus.</c>

00:26:17.480 --> 00:26:20.000
Those<00:26:17.839><c> that</c><00:26:18.200><c> oppose</c><00:26:18.720><c> the</c><00:26:19.019><c> essential</c><00:26:19.400><c> doctrines</c>

00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:21.599
concerning<00:26:20.559><c> Jesus'</c><00:26:21.279><c> nature,</c>

00:26:21.839 --> 00:26:24.759
they<00:26:21.940><c> are</c><00:26:22.539><c> antichrists.</c>

00:26:27.059 --> 00:26:30.680
Again,<00:26:27.440><c> they</c><00:26:27.660><c> thought</c><00:26:27.880><c> that</c><00:26:28.400><c> they</c><00:26:29.680><c> were</c><00:26:29.880><c> immoral,</c><00:26:30.400><c> right?</c>

00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:31.319
It<00:26:30.720><c> didn't</c><00:26:30.980><c> matter.</c>

00:26:31.400 --> 00:26:34.559
Sin<00:26:31.579><c> had</c><00:26:31.880><c> no</c><00:26:32.880><c> effect</c><00:26:33.259><c> on</c><00:26:33.500><c> them.</c>

00:26:38.179 --> 00:26:41.220
So<00:26:38.619><c> I</c><00:26:38.779><c> wonder</c><00:26:38.920><c> if</c><00:26:39.079><c> John</c><00:26:39.319><c> is</c><00:26:39.519><c> thinking</c><00:26:39.740><c> back</c><00:26:40.180><c> to</c><00:26:40.380><c> a</c><00:26:40.619><c> time,</c><00:26:41.059><c> right?</c>

00:26:41.220 --> 00:26:44.119
You<00:26:41.359><c> feel</c><00:26:41.579><c> betrayed</c><00:26:42.180><c> when</c><00:26:42.420><c> someone</c><00:26:42.680><c> leaves</c><00:26:42.960><c> the</c><00:26:43.279><c> truth.</c>

00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:47.119
And<00:26:44.519><c> I</c><00:26:44.559><c> think</c><00:26:44.740><c> John</c><00:26:45.079><c> is</c><00:26:45.339><c> thinking</c><00:26:45.599><c> back</c><00:26:46.019><c> to</c><00:26:46.200><c> a</c><00:26:46.420><c> time</c>

00:26:47.119 --> 00:26:49.640
when<00:26:47.640><c> he</c><00:26:48.000><c> felt</c><00:26:48.380><c> betrayed.</c>

00:26:51.579 --> 00:26:54.559
At<00:26:51.839><c> the</c><00:26:52.039><c> Last</c><00:26:52.339><c> Supper,</c><00:26:53.880><c> he,</c><00:26:54.319><c> Judas,</c>

00:26:54.819 --> 00:26:56.420
then<00:26:55.380><c> receiving</c><00:26:56.019><c> the</c><00:26:56.299><c> sup,</c>

00:26:56.559 --> 00:26:58.180
went<00:26:56.660><c> out</c><00:26:56.900><c> immediately</c><00:26:57.359><c> and</c><00:26:57.660><c> it</c><00:26:57.799><c> was</c><00:26:58.000><c> dark.</c>

00:26:58.259 --> 00:26:59.359
Jesus<00:26:58.619><c> has</c><00:26:58.839><c> just</c><00:26:59.059><c> said,</c>

00:26:59.700 --> 00:27:01.119
one<00:26:59.859><c> of</c><00:27:00.039><c> you</c><00:27:00.180><c> shall</c><00:27:00.480><c> betray</c><00:27:00.859><c> me.</c>

00:27:01.200 --> 00:27:03.339
And<00:27:01.420><c> they</c><00:27:01.539><c> all</c><00:27:01.720><c> say,</c><00:27:01.960><c> is</c><00:27:02.039><c> it</c><00:27:02.220><c> I,</c><00:27:02.420><c> is</c><00:27:02.599><c> it</c><00:27:02.759><c> I,</c><00:27:03.059><c> right?</c>

00:27:03.380 --> 00:27:05.200
And<00:27:03.599><c> they</c><00:27:03.759><c> never</c><00:27:03.960><c> get</c><00:27:04.079><c> an</c><00:27:04.299><c> answer</c>

00:27:05.519 --> 00:27:06.980
as<00:27:06.039><c> to</c><00:27:06.200><c> who</c><00:27:06.400><c> it</c><00:27:06.619><c> was.</c>

00:27:07.180 --> 00:27:08.559
Judas<00:27:07.400><c> leaves.</c>

00:27:08.720 --> 00:27:09.700
He<00:27:08.880><c> leaves</c><00:27:09.180><c> the</c><00:27:09.440><c> light.</c>

00:27:09.759 --> 00:27:11.859
He<00:27:09.920><c> goes</c><00:27:10.180><c> out</c><00:27:10.440><c> into</c><00:27:10.660><c> the</c><00:27:10.900><c> darkness.</c>

00:27:12.000 --> 00:27:14.359
But<00:27:12.180><c> they</c><00:27:12.359><c> think</c><00:27:12.500><c> he's</c><00:27:12.740><c> just</c><00:27:13.039><c> running</c><00:27:13.259><c> some</c><00:27:13.599><c> errands.</c>

00:27:14.660 --> 00:27:15.980
He's<00:27:15.119><c> maybe</c><00:27:15.380><c> collecting</c><00:27:15.660><c> money,</c>

00:27:16.059 --> 00:27:17.599
giving<00:27:16.200><c> money</c><00:27:16.460><c> to</c><00:27:16.660><c> the</c><00:27:16.839><c> poor.</c>

00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:20.180
They<00:27:18.259><c> haven't</c><00:27:18.980><c> figured</c><00:27:19.259><c> out</c><00:27:19.519><c> who</c><00:27:19.700><c> it</c><00:27:19.960><c> was</c>

00:27:20.180 --> 00:27:22.200
that<00:27:20.480><c> betrayed</c><00:27:20.759><c> Jesus</c><00:27:21.180><c> yet.</c>

00:27:25.019 --> 00:27:26.980
But<00:27:25.539><c> then</c><00:27:25.720><c> when</c><00:27:26.000><c> Jesus</c><00:27:26.279><c> gets</c><00:27:26.599><c> arrested,</c>

00:27:27.000 --> 00:27:28.759
they<00:27:27.160><c> know</c><00:27:27.339><c> who</c><00:27:27.539><c> it</c><00:27:27.700><c> is.</c>

00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:31.700
Humsiki,<00:27:30.359><c> Jesus</c><00:27:30.779><c> says.</c>

00:27:31.740 --> 00:27:33.359
They<00:27:31.940><c> answer</c><00:27:32.160><c> him,</c><00:27:32.319><c> Jesus</c><00:27:32.660><c> of</c><00:27:32.900><c> Nazareth.</c>

00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:36.279
He<00:27:33.519><c> says</c><00:27:33.779><c> unto</c><00:27:34.039><c> them,</c><00:27:34.700><c> I</c><00:27:34.960><c> am</c><00:27:35.160><c> he.</c>

00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:39.200
And<00:27:37.700><c> Judas</c><00:27:37.920><c> also,</c><00:27:38.339><c> who</c><00:27:38.519><c> betrayed</c><00:27:38.859><c> him,</c>

00:27:39.200 --> 00:27:40.259
stood<00:27:39.519><c> with</c><00:27:39.720><c> them.</c>

00:27:40.680 --> 00:27:42.680
He<00:27:41.160><c> stood</c><00:27:41.559><c> with</c><00:27:41.980><c> the</c><00:27:42.180><c> darkness,</c>

00:27:43.099 --> 00:27:44.299
them<00:27:43.359><c> that</c><00:27:43.599><c> are</c><00:27:43.819><c> in</c><00:27:44.059><c> darkness.</c>

00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:46.319
He<00:27:44.559><c> stood</c><00:27:44.720><c> with</c><00:27:44.920><c> the</c><00:27:45.160><c> world.</c>

00:27:47.619 --> 00:27:49.099
He<00:27:47.819><c> left</c><00:27:48.079><c> the</c><00:27:48.319><c> light</c>

00:27:49.099 --> 00:27:51.339
and<00:27:50.119><c> he</c><00:27:50.400><c> chose</c><00:27:50.720><c> the</c><00:27:51.019><c> world.</c>

00:27:51.400 --> 00:27:53.319
He<00:27:51.640><c> chose</c><00:27:52.059><c> darkness.</c>

00:27:54.660 --> 00:27:56.440

00:27:56.440 --> 00:27:59.619
the<00:27:56.900><c> sons</c><00:27:57.259><c> of</c><00:27:57.579><c> thunder</c><00:27:58.140><c> are</c><00:27:58.619><c> thinking?</c>

00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:02.859
You<00:28:00.799><c> think</c><00:28:00.920><c> they'd</c><00:28:01.140><c> like</c><00:28:01.259><c> to</c><00:28:01.420><c> get</c><00:28:01.640><c> their</c><00:28:01.859><c> mitts</c>

00:28:02.980 --> 00:28:04.420

00:28:05.059 --> 00:28:06.000
I<00:28:05.299><c> bet</c><00:28:05.440><c> they</c><00:28:05.680><c> would.</c>

00:28:06.180 --> 00:28:08.319
I<00:28:06.180><c> mean,</c><00:28:06.480><c> Peter</c><00:28:06.660><c> chops</c><00:28:07.019><c> off</c><00:28:07.359><c> the</c><00:28:07.599><c> ear</c>

of<00:28:08.539><c> Malchus,</c><00:28:09.079><c> right?</c>

00:28:10.200 --> 00:28:11.119
I<00:28:10.319><c> think</c><00:28:10.460><c> they'd</c><00:28:10.680><c> like</c><00:28:10.799><c> to</c><00:28:10.920><c> get...</c>

00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:12.779
And<00:28:11.220><c> they're</c><00:28:11.400><c> thinking,</c><00:28:12.059><c> ah,</c>

00:28:13.220 --> 00:28:15.319
they're<00:28:13.460><c> thinking</c><00:28:13.660><c> back</c><00:28:14.019><c> to</c><00:28:14.200><c> that</c><00:28:14.440><c> night.</c>

00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:18.960
You<00:28:16.920><c> know,</c><00:28:17.200><c> I</c><00:28:17.380><c> should</c><00:28:17.519><c> have</c><00:28:17.599><c> known</c><00:28:17.759><c> it</c><00:28:17.940><c> was</c><00:28:18.099><c> him.</c>

00:28:19.119 --> 00:28:20.400
Remember<00:28:19.279><c> he</c><00:28:19.480><c> left?</c>

00:28:20.539 --> 00:28:22.400
I<00:28:20.700><c> thought</c><00:28:20.819><c> he</c><00:28:20.980><c> was</c><00:28:21.200><c> just</c>

00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:24.359
going<00:28:22.779><c> to</c><00:28:23.039><c> collect</c><00:28:23.200><c> money.</c>

00:28:24.660 --> 00:28:28.220
He<00:28:24.859><c> was</c><00:28:25.140><c> going</c><00:28:25.500><c> to</c><00:28:25.880><c> betray</c><00:28:26.500><c> Jesus.</c>

00:28:28.700 --> 00:28:30.440
And<00:28:28.980><c> there</c><00:28:29.079><c> would</c><00:28:29.240><c> have</c><00:28:29.380><c> been</c><00:28:29.500><c> a</c><00:28:29.619><c> lot</c><00:28:29.799><c> of</c><00:28:30.019><c> hatred</c>

00:28:30.440 --> 00:28:32.400
towards<00:28:31.339><c> Judas.</c>

00:28:32.740 --> 00:28:34.420
A<00:28:32.880><c> lot</c><00:28:33.059><c> of</c><00:28:33.380><c> anger.</c>

00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:38.460
And<00:28:37.339><c> the</c><00:28:37.440><c> next</c><00:28:37.660><c> thing</c><00:28:37.920><c> Jesus</c>

00:28:38.460 --> 00:28:41.079
says<00:28:39.220><c> to</c><00:28:39.420><c> them</c><00:28:39.579><c> is,</c><00:28:39.880><c> little</c><00:28:40.019><c> children,</c>

00:28:41.859 --> 00:28:43.559
a<00:28:41.940><c> new</c><00:28:42.119><c> command</c><00:28:42.619><c> I</c><00:28:42.940><c> give</c><00:28:43.099><c> unto</c><00:28:43.339><c> you</c>

00:28:43.559 --> 00:28:44.579
that<00:28:43.720><c> ye</c><00:28:43.859><c> love</c><00:28:44.019><c> one</c><00:28:44.259><c> another</c>

00:28:44.579 --> 00:28:46.440
as<00:28:44.859><c> I</c><00:28:45.019><c> have</c><00:28:45.180><c> loved</c><00:28:45.420><c> you.</c>

00:28:47.019 --> 00:28:49.319
So<00:28:47.220><c> when</c><00:28:47.339><c> they</c><00:28:47.579><c> think</c><00:28:47.740><c> back</c><00:28:48.039><c> to</c><00:28:48.240><c> that</c><00:28:48.460><c> night,</c>

00:28:49.519 --> 00:28:50.200
they<00:28:49.700><c> then</c><00:28:50.000><c> think,</c>

00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:52.259
what<00:28:50.400><c> did</c><00:28:50.619><c> Jesus</c><00:28:50.940><c> say</c><00:28:51.220><c> next?</c>

00:28:52.859 --> 00:28:55.279
Jesus<00:28:53.339><c> is,</c><00:28:53.819><c> he's</c><00:28:54.160><c> compassionate.</c>

00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:58.700
He<00:28:57.000><c> refers</c><00:28:57.480><c> to</c><00:28:57.640><c> them</c><00:28:57.759><c> as</c><00:28:58.000><c> little</c><00:28:58.299><c> children.</c>

00:28:58.700 --> 00:29:00.819
And<00:28:58.799><c> he</c><00:28:58.920><c> knows</c><00:28:59.200><c> they're</c><00:28:59.420><c> going</c><00:28:59.519><c> to</c><00:28:59.619><c> be</c><00:28:59.920><c> devastated</c>

00:29:00.819 --> 00:29:02.559
by<00:29:01.660><c> the</c><00:29:01.859><c> betrayal</c>

00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:04.579
of<00:29:02.880><c> one</c><00:29:03.119><c> of</c><00:29:03.299><c> their</c><00:29:03.619><c> own.</c>

00:29:05.319 --> 00:29:06.799
So<00:29:05.539><c> he</c><00:29:05.660><c> wants</c><00:29:05.900><c> to</c><00:29:06.160><c> bring</c><00:29:06.299><c> their</c><00:29:06.579><c> minds</c>

00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:09.220
from<00:29:07.039><c> hatred</c><00:29:07.579><c> to</c><00:29:08.279><c> love.</c>

00:29:09.400 --> 00:29:11.019
Don't<00:29:09.680><c> focus</c><00:29:10.180><c> on</c><00:29:10.400><c> the</c><00:29:10.579><c> outside.</c>

00:29:11.119 --> 00:29:13.059
Just<00:29:11.339><c> focus</c><00:29:11.900><c> on</c><00:29:12.400><c> the</c><00:29:12.619><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:29:13.380 --> 00:29:14.880
Focus<00:29:13.940><c> on</c><00:29:14.579><c> loving</c>

00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:16.359
one<00:29:15.380><c> another.</c>

00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:22.240
And<00:29:20.740><c> so,</c><00:29:21.000><c> you</c><00:29:21.160><c> know,</c><00:29:21.240><c> Jesus</c><00:29:21.539><c> only</c><00:29:21.940><c> says</c>

00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:23.759
little<00:29:22.680><c> children</c><00:29:23.019><c> one</c><00:29:23.400><c> time.</c>

00:29:24.240 --> 00:29:25.539
It's<00:29:24.380><c> only</c><00:29:24.559><c> recorded</c><00:29:24.980><c> one</c><00:29:25.339><c> time.</c>

00:29:25.539 --> 00:29:27.460
But<00:29:25.799><c> John</c><00:29:26.359><c> uses</c><00:29:27.019><c> it,</c><00:29:27.279><c> I</c><00:29:27.299><c> think,</c>

00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:30.000
it<00:29:27.559><c> was</c><00:29:27.779><c> nine</c><00:29:28.160><c> times</c><00:29:28.799><c> in</c><00:29:29.440><c> his</c><00:29:29.680><c> epistle.</c>

00:29:30.140 --> 00:29:31.519
So<00:29:30.319><c> he's</c><00:29:30.680><c> thinking</c><00:29:30.940><c> back</c>

00:29:31.519 --> 00:29:33.400
to<00:29:32.059><c> that</c><00:29:32.279><c> time</c><00:29:32.480><c> when</c><00:29:32.619><c> he</c><00:29:32.799><c> was</c><00:29:33.019><c> betrayed.</c>

00:29:33.680 --> 00:29:35.779
He<00:29:33.779><c> knows</c><00:29:34.019><c> the</c><00:29:34.319><c> Ecclesia</c><00:29:34.680><c> is</c><00:29:35.039><c> devastated.</c>

00:29:36.240 --> 00:29:37.720
So<00:29:36.559><c> with</c><00:29:36.680><c> this</c><00:29:36.920><c> term</c><00:29:37.140><c> of</c><00:29:37.480><c> affection,</c>

00:29:37.859 --> 00:29:39.220
little<00:29:38.579><c> children.</c>

00:29:39.599 --> 00:29:40.859
And<00:29:39.759><c> John's</c><00:29:40.000><c> going</c><00:29:40.099><c> to</c><00:29:40.200><c> do</c><00:29:40.319><c> the</c><00:29:40.519><c> same</c><00:29:40.720><c> thing.</c>

00:29:40.859 --> 00:29:43.480
He<00:29:40.960><c> wants</c><00:29:41.140><c> to</c><00:29:41.500><c> bring</c><00:29:41.660><c> their</c><00:29:42.019><c> minds</c><00:29:42.339><c> from</c><00:29:42.599><c> this</c><00:29:42.980><c> hatred</c>

00:29:43.480 --> 00:29:45.559
that<00:29:44.200><c> they</c><00:29:44.380><c> might</c><00:29:44.619><c> have</c><00:29:44.880><c> for</c><00:29:45.039><c> their</c><00:29:45.279><c> brothers.</c>

00:29:45.599 --> 00:29:47.559
This<00:29:45.920><c> confusion</c><00:29:46.579><c> that</c><00:29:46.779><c> has</c><00:29:46.960><c> been</c><00:29:47.180><c> caused.</c>

00:29:47.940 --> 00:29:50.120
You<00:29:47.940><c> know,</c><00:29:48.299><c> the</c><00:29:48.359><c> Gnostics,</c><00:29:48.740><c> they</c><00:29:48.900><c> could</c><00:29:49.079><c> have</c><00:29:49.180><c> been</c><00:29:49.380><c> hostile</c>

00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:51.740
in<00:29:50.640><c> trying</c><00:29:50.900><c> to</c><00:29:51.339><c> convert</c><00:29:51.559><c> them</c>

00:29:51.740 --> 00:29:52.819

00:29:52.819 --> 00:29:56.279
And<00:29:53.740><c> they</c><00:29:53.839><c> would</c><00:29:54.019><c> have</c><00:29:54.119><c> been</c><00:29:54.259><c> upset</c><00:29:54.720><c> with</c><00:29:54.960><c> them.</c>

00:29:57.380 --> 00:29:58.839
And<00:29:57.619><c> he</c><00:29:57.720><c> wants</c><00:29:57.920><c> to</c><00:29:58.140><c> bring</c><00:29:58.240><c> them</c><00:29:58.400><c> to</c><00:29:58.619><c> the</c>

00:29:59.920 --> 00:30:02.740
He<00:30:00.160><c> who</c><00:30:00.839><c> loves</c><00:30:01.220><c> his</c><00:30:01.579><c> brother</c><00:30:01.880><c> abides</c>

00:30:11.819 --> 00:30:13.640

00:32:57.460 --> 00:32:58.759
says,

00:32:59.880 --> 00:33:01.359
I'm<00:33:00.400><c> the</c><00:33:00.619><c> disciple</c><00:33:01.079><c> of</c><00:33:01.299><c> Jesus.</c>

00:33:09.480 --> 00:33:11.180
But<00:33:09.759><c> so</c><00:33:09.960><c> is</c><00:33:10.180><c> crucifying</c><00:33:10.799><c> the</c><00:33:11.059><c> flesh.</c>

00:33:11.240 --> 00:33:13.160
We<00:33:11.359><c> know,</c><00:33:12.059><c> like,</c><00:33:12.259><c> oh,</c><00:33:12.440><c> I</c><00:33:12.519><c> was</c><00:33:12.740><c> baptized,</c>

00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:19.039
It's<00:33:17.440><c> a</c><00:33:17.480><c> process</c><00:33:18.079><c> of</c><00:33:18.420><c> crucifying</c>
