00:09:14.820 --> 00:09:16.840
So<00:09:15.059><c> the</c><00:09:15.259><c> waters</c><00:09:15.519><c> were</c><00:09:15.779><c> healed</c><00:09:16.039><c> unto</c><00:09:16.259><c> this</c><00:09:16.580><c> day,</c>

00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:19.399
according<00:09:17.519><c> to</c><00:09:17.759><c> the</c><00:09:17.919><c> saying</c><00:09:18.059><c> of</c><00:09:18.240><c> Elijah,</c><00:09:18.700><c> which</c><00:09:18.899><c> he</c><00:09:19.120><c> spake.</c>

00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:23.299
There's<00:09:19.879><c> some</c><00:09:20.159><c> very</c><00:09:20.720><c> strange</c><00:09:21.159><c> little</c><00:09:21.440><c> miracles</c><00:09:22.019><c> that</c><00:09:22.539><c> Elijah</c><00:09:22.840><c> performed.</c>

00:09:23.539 --> 00:09:24.440
We<00:09:23.620><c> look</c><00:09:23.779><c> at</c><00:09:23.919><c> one</c><00:09:24.080><c> or</c><00:09:24.159><c> two</c><00:09:24.240><c> of</c><00:09:24.340><c> them.</c>

00:09:24.460 --> 00:09:29.220
Here's<00:09:24.679><c> one,</c><00:09:25.419><c> a</c><00:09:25.700><c> strange</c><00:09:25.980><c> thing</c><00:09:26.200><c> to</c><00:09:26.639><c> pop</c><00:09:26.840><c> out</c><00:09:27.120><c> of</c><00:09:27.820><c> the</c><00:09:28.620><c> written</c><00:09:28.899><c> word.</c>

00:09:29.580 --> 00:09:31.340
There's<00:09:30.019><c> another</c><00:09:30.200><c> one,</c><00:09:30.539><c> it's</c><00:09:30.700><c> even</c><00:09:30.919><c> stranger.</c>

00:09:31.740 --> 00:09:34.279
The<00:09:31.919><c> axehead</c><00:09:32.220><c> flies</c><00:09:32.539><c> off</c><00:09:32.759><c> the</c><00:09:32.980><c> haft</c><00:09:33.200><c> and</c><00:09:33.519><c> gets</c><00:09:33.820><c> lost</c><00:09:34.039><c> in</c><00:09:34.200><c> the</c>

00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:34.860
muddy<00:09:34.440><c> waters.</c>

00:09:35.299 --> 00:09:37.059
And<00:09:35.379><c> Elijah</c><00:09:35.799><c> waves</c><00:09:36.379><c> a</c><00:09:36.600><c> stick</c><00:09:36.740><c> over</c><00:09:36.940><c> it.</c>

00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:39.000
I<00:09:37.200><c> suppose</c><00:09:37.399><c> some</c><00:09:37.600><c> sort</c><00:09:37.840><c> of</c><00:09:38.000><c> magnetism</c><00:09:38.440><c> takes</c><00:09:38.700><c> place.</c>

00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:41.299
The<00:09:39.379><c> iron</c><00:09:39.539><c> floats</c><00:09:39.799><c> and</c><00:09:39.980><c> he</c><00:09:40.080><c> takes</c><00:09:40.240><c> it</c><00:09:40.379><c> out</c><00:09:40.500><c> and</c><00:09:40.600><c> says,</c><00:09:41.220><c> yeah,</c>

00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:42.399
axehead<00:09:41.759><c> back.</c>

00:09:42.580 --> 00:09:44.259
What<00:09:42.879><c> would</c><00:09:43.000><c> have</c><00:09:43.100><c> been</c><00:09:43.320><c> taught?</c>

00:09:45.179 --> 00:09:48.399
Do<00:09:45.580><c> you</c><00:09:45.759><c> ever</c><00:09:46.080><c> feel</c><00:09:46.340><c> like</c><00:09:46.700><c> this</c><00:09:46.879><c> about</c><00:09:47.139><c> the</c><00:09:47.299><c> word</c><00:09:47.440><c> of</c><00:09:47.679><c> God?</c>

00:09:48.700 --> 00:09:52.519
Or<00:09:49.100><c> am</c><00:09:49.500><c> I,</c><00:09:50.059><c> you</c><00:09:50.299><c> see,</c><00:09:51.059><c> as</c><00:09:51.220><c> was</c><00:09:51.399><c> once</c><00:09:51.600><c> said</c><00:09:51.759><c> by</c><00:09:52.000><c> somebody</c><00:09:52.220><c> better</c>

00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:53.039
known<00:09:52.679><c> than</c><00:09:52.840><c> me,</c>

00:09:53.179 --> 00:09:56.159
I<00:09:53.440><c> cling</c><00:09:53.639><c> tenaciously</c><00:09:54.279><c> to</c><00:09:54.500><c> the</c><00:09:54.600><c> view</c><00:09:54.759><c> that</c><00:09:54.919><c> I'm</c><00:09:55.139><c> normal.</c>

00:09:57.799 --> 00:09:58.720
No,<00:09:58.039><c> I</c><00:09:58.200><c> really</c><00:09:58.559><c> do.</c>

00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.679
And<00:09:59.259><c> just</c><00:09:59.639><c> when</c><00:09:59.799><c> I</c><00:09:59.980><c> want</c><00:10:00.159><c> the</c><00:10:00.360><c> word</c><00:10:00.500><c> of</c><00:10:00.639><c> God</c><00:10:00.740><c> to</c><00:10:01.019><c> tell</c><00:10:01.179><c> me</c><00:10:01.360><c> more,</c>

00:10:02.179 --> 00:10:04.559
it's<00:10:03.500><c> silent.</c>

00:10:05.740 --> 00:10:08.059
And<00:10:05.919><c> when</c><00:10:05.980><c> I</c><00:10:06.080><c> don't</c><00:10:06.279><c> need</c><00:10:06.460><c> information,</c><00:10:07.019><c> I</c><00:10:07.139><c> get</c><00:10:07.360><c> it.</c>

00:10:10.059 --> 00:10:11.360
It's<00:10:10.460><c> incredible.</c>

00:10:11.820 --> 00:10:14.759
And<00:10:12.120><c> I</c><00:10:12.220><c> know</c><00:10:12.279><c> what</c><00:10:12.419><c> the</c><00:10:12.580><c> word</c><00:10:12.679><c> means</c><00:10:13.019><c> too,</c><00:10:13.519><c> strangely</c><00:10:13.720><c> enough.</c>

00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:17.379
Let<00:10:16.100><c> me</c><00:10:16.240><c> just</c><00:10:16.440><c> give</c><00:10:16.539><c> you</c><00:10:16.639><c> an</c><00:10:16.759><c> example</c><00:10:17.059><c> of</c><00:10:17.259><c> that.</c>

00:10:17.379 --> 00:10:20.139
Nothing<00:10:18.159><c> to</c><00:10:18.360><c> do</c><00:10:18.419><c> with</c><00:10:18.500><c> the</c><00:10:18.679><c> prophet,</c><00:10:19.179><c> but</c><00:10:19.179><c> since</c><00:10:19.519><c> David's</c><00:10:19.879><c> given</c><00:10:19.960><c> us</c>

00:10:20.139 --> 00:10:20.639
a<00:10:20.200><c> bit</c><00:10:20.279><c> more</c><00:10:20.500><c> time</c>

00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:23.759
and<00:10:20.759><c> since</c><00:10:20.879><c> we</c><00:10:21.000><c> can</c><00:10:21.120><c> go</c><00:10:21.200><c> a</c><00:10:21.279><c> bit</c><00:10:21.360><c> nearer</c><00:10:21.620><c> 10</c><00:10:21.740><c> o</c><00:10:21.879><c>'clock,</c><00:10:21.960><c> I'll</c><00:10:22.179><c> take</c><00:10:22.320><c> advantage</c><00:10:22.620><c> of</c><00:10:22.759><c> it.</c>

00:10:23.899 --> 00:10:24.919
Let<00:10:23.940><c> me</c><00:10:24.080><c> just</c><00:10:24.259><c> give</c><00:10:24.320><c> you</c><00:10:24.440><c> an</c><00:10:24.559><c> example.</c>

00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:28.360
Do<00:10:25.220><c> you</c><00:10:25.259><c> remember</c><00:10:25.460><c> when</c><00:10:25.620><c> the</c><00:10:25.700><c> Lord</c><00:10:25.879><c> Jesus</c><00:10:26.299><c> Christ</c><00:10:26.720><c> was</c><00:10:27.259><c> crucified?</c>

00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:30.500
And<00:10:28.779><c> then</c><00:10:29.019><c> John</c><00:10:29.220><c> in</c><00:10:29.360><c> the</c><00:10:29.500><c> 19th</c><00:10:29.940><c> chapter</c><00:10:30.200><c> says,</c>

00:10:30.940 --> 00:10:34.840
now<00:10:30.940><c> the</c><00:10:31.120><c> place</c><00:10:31.279><c> where</c><00:10:31.559><c> they</c><00:10:32.240><c> crucified</c><00:10:32.779><c> him</c><00:10:33.059><c> was</c><00:10:33.399><c> night</c><00:10:33.659><c> of</c><00:10:33.840><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:37.840
Of<00:10:36.320><c> course</c><00:10:36.700><c> it</c><00:10:37.019><c> was.</c>

00:10:38.340 --> 00:10:40.200
That<00:10:38.480><c> those</c><00:10:38.720><c> words</c><00:10:38.940><c> are</c><00:10:39.259><c> superfluous.</c>

00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:42.019
I<00:10:40.820><c> knew</c><00:10:40.980><c> it.</c>

00:10:42.299 --> 00:10:44.440
He<00:10:42.460><c> was</c><00:10:42.759><c> tried</c><00:10:43.059><c> in</c><00:10:43.299><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:10:44.519 --> 00:10:46.940
They're<00:10:44.620><c> not</c><00:10:44.720><c> going</c><00:10:44.840><c> to</c><00:10:45.059><c> take</c><00:10:45.220><c> him</c><00:10:45.659><c> right</c><00:10:45.879><c> up</c><00:10:46.039><c> the</c><00:10:46.159><c> road</c><00:10:46.279><c> to</c><00:10:46.519><c> Galilee</c>

00:10:46.940 --> 00:10:50.919
and<00:10:47.360><c> murder</c><00:10:48.159><c> him</c><00:10:48.379><c> where</c><00:10:49.220><c> he</c><00:10:49.399><c> came</c><00:10:49.659><c> from,</c><00:10:49.879><c> are</c><00:10:50.080><c> they?</c>

00:10:51.019 --> 00:10:52.659
They<00:10:51.159><c> want</c><00:10:51.320><c> to</c><00:10:51.419><c> do</c><00:10:51.500><c> it</c><00:10:51.639><c> quickly.</c>

00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:53.820
The<00:10:52.860><c> Sabbath's</c><00:10:53.340><c> upon</c><00:10:53.559><c> them.</c>

00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:54.600
They<00:10:54.000><c> want</c><00:10:54.159><c> to</c><00:10:54.259><c> get</c><00:10:54.340><c> it</c><00:10:54.480><c> done.</c>

00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:56.559
So<00:10:54.879><c> why</c><00:10:55.059><c> does</c><00:10:55.259><c> John</c><00:10:55.620><c> bother</c><00:10:55.980><c> me</c><00:10:56.179><c> with</c><00:10:56.279><c> the</c><00:10:56.419><c> words?</c>

00:10:56.779 --> 00:10:58.940
Now<00:10:56.879><c> the</c><00:10:57.000><c> place</c><00:10:57.179><c> where</c><00:10:57.340><c> they</c><00:10:57.539><c> crucified</c><00:10:57.940><c> him</c><00:10:58.080><c> was</c><00:10:58.240><c> night</c><00:10:58.480><c> of</c><00:10:58.620><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:00.580
I'll<00:10:59.559><c> tell</c><00:10:59.659><c> you</c><00:10:59.740><c> what,</c><00:11:00.120><c> brethren</c><00:11:00.200><c> and</c><00:11:00.460><c> sisters,</c>

00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:02.759
when<00:11:00.779><c> we</c><00:11:01.000><c> come</c><00:11:01.220><c> across</c><00:11:01.700><c> passages</c><00:11:02.100><c> like</c><00:11:02.480><c> that,</c>

00:11:02.940 --> 00:11:05.200
we<00:11:03.139><c> really</c><00:11:03.500><c> should</c><00:11:03.639><c> get</c><00:11:03.820><c> the</c><00:11:04.019><c> magnifying</c><00:11:04.440><c> glass</c><00:11:04.659><c> out</c><00:11:04.879><c> and</c><00:11:05.000><c> have</c><00:11:05.139><c> a</c>

look<00:11:05.299><c> at</c><00:11:05.399><c> them.</c>

00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:09.340
Because<00:11:07.320><c> they're</c><00:11:07.559><c> not</c><00:11:07.860><c> written</c><00:11:08.139><c> accidentally.</c>

00:11:10.379 --> 00:11:12.559
Because<00:11:10.720><c> if</c><00:11:10.919><c> you</c><00:11:11.019><c> go</c><00:11:11.220><c> back</c><00:11:11.419><c> to</c><00:11:11.679><c> the</c><00:11:11.820><c> Levitical</c><00:11:12.279><c> law,</c>

we<00:12:40.539><c> are</c><00:12:40.840><c> innocent</c><00:12:41.240><c> of</c><00:12:41.419><c> this</c><00:12:41.659><c> man's</c><00:12:41.980><c> blood.</c>

00:12:42.340 --> 00:12:43.820
Don't<00:12:42.580><c> blame</c><00:12:42.799><c> us.</c>

If<00:12:45.679><c> we</c><00:12:45.940><c> are</c><00:12:46.080><c> guilty,</c><00:12:46.860><c> his</c><00:12:47.039><c> blood</c><00:12:47.259><c> be</c><00:12:47.480><c> upon</c><00:12:47.659><c> us</c><00:12:48.039><c> and</c><00:12:48.259><c> upon</c><00:12:48.419><c> our</c><00:12:48.720><c> children.</c>

00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:51.299
God<00:12:49.960><c> help</c><00:12:50.399><c> them.</c>

00:12:51.620 --> 00:12:53.379
They<00:12:51.899><c> pass</c><00:12:52.179><c> judgment</c><00:12:52.639><c> upon</c><00:12:52.879><c> themselves,</c>

00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:55.679

00:12:55.779 --> 00:12:58.220
The<00:12:55.919><c> Lord</c><00:12:56.200><c> gives</c><00:12:56.519><c> us</c><00:12:56.700><c> what</c><00:12:56.879><c> we</c><00:12:57.080><c> ask</c><00:12:57.259><c> for.</c>

00:12:58.440 --> 00:12:59.720
Would<00:12:58.639><c> God</c><00:12:58.799><c> we</c><00:12:58.980><c> died</c><00:12:59.159><c> in</c><00:12:59.340><c> the</c><00:12:59.460><c> wilderness?</c>

00:12:59.940 --> 00:13:00.840
Oh,<00:13:00.480><c> really?</c>

00:13:00.940 --> 00:13:02.200
Very<00:13:01.159><c> well,</c><00:13:01.240><c> you</c><00:13:01.460><c> can.</c>

00:13:02.659 --> 00:13:04.379

00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:06.759
Oh,<00:13:05.080><c> very</c><00:13:05.379><c> well,</c><00:13:05.519><c> it</c><00:13:05.740><c> will</c><00:13:05.919><c> be.</c>

00:13:10.159 --> 00:13:12.340
And<00:13:10.600><c> that's</c><00:13:11.039><c> why</c><00:13:11.320><c> that's</c><00:13:11.580><c> why</c><00:13:11.720><c> words</c><00:13:11.919><c> are</c><00:13:12.100><c> written.</c>

00:13:12.539 --> 00:13:14.220
So<00:13:12.860><c> we</c><00:13:13.840><c> come</c><00:13:14.059><c> back.</c>

00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:15.620
It<00:13:14.360><c> was</c><00:13:14.419><c> a</c><00:13:14.539><c> little</c><00:13:14.700><c> excursion,</c><00:13:15.159><c> brother</c><00:13:15.299><c> David.</c>

00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:17.200
You<00:13:16.200><c> didn't</c><00:13:16.419><c> mind</c><00:13:16.539><c> that,</c><00:13:16.779><c> did</c><00:13:16.779><c> you?</c>

00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:18.019
It's<00:13:17.799><c> great.</c>

00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:20.080
I<00:13:18.480><c> have</c><00:13:18.659><c> a</c><00:13:18.840><c> very</c><00:13:19.039><c> sympathetic</c><00:13:19.600><c> president.</c>

00:13:20.299 --> 00:13:22.399
He's<00:13:20.519><c> a</c><00:13:21.019><c> great</c><00:13:21.159><c> man</c><00:13:21.340><c> to</c><00:13:21.519><c> work</c><00:13:21.679><c> with.</c>

00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:28.580
So<00:13:25.799><c> why</c><00:13:26.080><c> do</c><00:13:26.259><c> we</c><00:13:26.620><c> have</c><00:13:26.779><c> this</c><00:13:26.940><c> little</c><00:13:27.159><c> incident</c><00:13:27.480><c> about</c><00:13:27.799><c> the</c><00:13:27.960><c> salt?</c>

00:13:32.299 --> 00:13:35.679
What<00:13:32.740><c> did</c><00:13:33.179><c> the</c><00:13:33.360><c> Lord</c><00:13:33.519><c> Jesus</c><00:13:33.879><c> Christ</c><00:13:34.279><c> say</c><00:13:34.539><c> about</c><00:13:34.860><c> salt?</c>

00:13:35.899 --> 00:13:38.600
He<00:13:36.340><c> said,</c><00:13:36.820><c> ye</c><00:13:36.860><c> are</c><00:13:37.059><c> the</c><00:13:37.259><c> salt</c><00:13:37.440><c> of</c><00:13:37.620><c> the</c><00:13:37.779><c> earth.</c>

00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:42.679
We<00:13:40.039><c> cannot</c><00:13:40.480><c> extricate</c><00:13:41.519><c> the</c><00:13:41.639><c> Old</c><00:13:41.820><c> Testament</c><00:13:42.159><c> from</c><00:13:42.440><c> the</c><00:13:42.580><c> New.</c>

00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:44.820
They<00:13:43.279><c> won't</c><00:13:43.480><c> come</c><00:13:43.700><c> apart,</c><00:13:44.240><c> brethren</c><00:13:44.419><c> and</c><00:13:44.580><c> sisters.</c>

00:13:45.179 --> 00:13:46.840
We<00:13:45.440><c> need</c><00:13:46.279><c> both.</c>

00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:48.580
That's<00:13:47.480><c> what</c><00:13:47.600><c> we</c><00:13:47.799><c> need.</c>

00:13:49.700 --> 00:13:52.379
So<00:13:49.899><c> even</c><00:13:50.100><c> in</c><00:13:50.399><c> the</c><00:13:50.620><c> second</c><00:13:50.840><c> book</c><00:13:51.039><c> of</c><00:13:51.200><c> Kings</c><00:13:51.379><c> and</c><00:13:51.500><c> chapter</c><00:13:51.820><c> two,</c>

00:13:52.580 --> 00:13:53.600
and<00:13:52.679><c> we're</c><00:13:52.779><c> thinking</c><00:13:53.019><c> about</c><00:13:53.379><c> salt,</c>

00:13:53.759 --> 00:13:55.379
we're<00:13:53.899><c> pondering</c><00:13:54.240><c> about</c><00:13:54.460><c> the</c><00:13:54.559><c> Lord</c><00:13:54.740><c> Jesus</c><00:13:55.100><c> Christ,</c>

00:13:55.620 --> 00:13:58.139
and<00:13:55.720><c> him</c><00:13:55.919><c> saying,</c><00:13:56.799><c> ye</c><00:13:57.039><c> are</c><00:13:57.240><c> the</c><00:13:57.480><c> salt</c><00:13:57.679><c> of</c><00:13:57.879><c> the</c><00:13:57.980><c> earth.</c>

00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:00.820
Now,<00:13:58.440><c> what</c><00:13:58.600><c> is</c><00:13:58.840><c> the</c><00:13:59.159><c> characteristic</c><00:13:59.779><c> of</c><00:14:00.080><c> salt?</c>

00:14:01.779 --> 00:14:03.779
Well,<00:14:02.820><c> it</c><00:14:02.980><c> flavours.</c>

00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:06.399
You<00:14:04.679><c> have</c><00:14:04.860><c> to</c><00:14:04.960><c> be</c><00:14:05.139><c> sensible</c><00:14:05.419><c> with</c><00:14:05.679><c> it.</c>

00:14:06.659 --> 00:14:08.779
But<00:14:06.759><c> if</c><00:14:06.940><c> you,</c><00:14:07.720><c> what</c><00:14:07.820><c> is</c><00:14:08.019><c> it,</c><00:14:08.340><c> Job</c><00:14:08.460><c> says,</c>

00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:10.860
is<00:14:09.360><c> there</c><00:14:09.519><c> any</c><00:14:09.740><c> taste</c><00:14:10.039><c> in</c><00:14:10.220><c> the</c><00:14:10.299><c> white</c><00:14:10.399><c> of</c><00:14:10.539><c> an</c><00:14:10.679><c> egg?</c>

00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:11.919
No,<00:14:11.500><c> there</c><00:14:11.580><c> isn't.</c>

00:14:12.220 --> 00:14:14.919
So<00:14:12.360><c> you</c><00:14:12.440><c> put</c><00:14:12.539><c> a</c><00:14:12.600><c> bit</c><00:14:12.740><c> of</c><00:14:12.899><c> salt</c><00:14:13.080><c> on</c><00:14:13.240><c> it,</c><00:14:13.500><c> it</c><00:14:13.899><c> tastes</c><00:14:14.059><c> better.</c>

00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:18.779
So<00:14:15.480><c> salt,</c><00:14:16.580><c> used</c><00:14:16.919><c> sensibly,</c><00:14:17.720><c> will</c><00:14:18.000><c> flavour</c><00:14:18.460><c> food.</c>

00:14:19.059 --> 00:14:20.620
You're<00:14:19.340><c> a</c><00:14:19.480><c> crackpot</c><00:14:19.820><c> if</c><00:14:20.019><c> you</c><00:14:20.179><c> load</c><00:14:20.340><c> it</c><00:14:20.539><c> on.</c>

00:14:20.940 --> 00:14:21.960
Not<00:14:21.159><c> going</c><00:14:21.340><c> to</c><00:14:21.419><c> do</c><00:14:21.500><c> you</c><00:14:21.639><c> any</c><00:14:21.799><c> good.</c>

00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:27.960
But<00:14:22.480><c> as</c><00:14:23.399><c> with</c><00:14:23.960><c> everything,</c><00:14:26.559><c> balance</c><00:14:26.840><c> is</c><00:14:27.100><c> vital.</c>

00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:30.100
So<00:14:28.559><c> it</c><00:14:28.779><c> flavours,</c><00:14:29.240><c> okay.</c>

00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:32.539
It<00:14:30.960><c> also</c><00:14:31.299><c> preserves.</c>

00:14:33.980 --> 00:14:35.779
Well,<00:14:34.779><c> preserve</c><00:14:34.820><c> food.</c>

00:14:36.620 --> 00:14:38.419
It<00:14:37.019><c> will</c><00:14:37.259><c> act</c><00:14:37.360><c> as</c><00:14:37.539><c> a</c><00:14:37.679><c> cleansing</c><00:14:37.980><c> agent.</c>

00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:39.740
I<00:14:38.740><c> mean,</c><00:14:38.879><c> if</c><00:14:39.000><c> you</c><00:14:39.159><c> scratch</c><00:14:39.379><c> yourself,</c>

00:14:40.120 --> 00:14:41.399
and<00:14:40.120><c> you've</c><00:14:40.340><c> got</c><00:14:40.440><c> a</c><00:14:40.460><c> bit</c><00:14:40.600><c> of</c><00:14:40.779><c> salt</c><00:14:40.919><c> in</c><00:14:41.059><c> some</c><00:14:41.240><c> water,</c>

00:14:41.460 --> 00:14:42.799
you've<00:14:41.580><c> got</c><00:14:41.659><c> nothing</c><00:14:41.899><c> else,</c>

00:14:42.960 --> 00:14:45.059
slosh<00:14:43.120><c> a</c><00:14:43.179><c> bit</c><00:14:43.299><c> of</c><00:14:43.460><c> salt</c><00:14:43.600><c> water</c><00:14:43.820><c> on,</c><00:14:44.460><c> it'll</c><00:14:44.840><c> hurt,</c>

00:14:45.139 --> 00:14:46.419
but<00:14:45.259><c> it'll</c><00:14:45.500><c> clean</c><00:14:45.720><c> it.</c>

00:14:47.440 --> 00:14:51.580
So<00:14:47.840><c> it</c><00:14:48.240><c> flavours,</c><00:14:48.740><c> it</c><00:14:48.860><c> preserves,</c><00:14:49.220><c> and</c><00:14:49.399><c> it</c><00:14:50.279><c> cleanses.</c>

00:14:51.740 --> 00:14:53.700
And<00:14:51.960><c> that</c><00:14:52.120><c> is</c><00:14:52.340><c> the</c><00:14:52.519><c> action</c><00:14:52.860><c> of</c><00:14:53.080><c> the</c><00:14:53.279><c> Christian.</c>

00:14:53.820 --> 00:14:55.980
And<00:14:54.019><c> I</c><00:14:54.259><c> use</c><00:14:54.539><c> the</c><00:14:54.779><c> word</c><00:14:54.980><c> in</c><00:14:55.179><c> a</c><00:14:55.360><c> biblical</c><00:14:55.679><c> sense.</c>

00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:57.820
Look,<00:14:56.679><c> don't</c><00:14:56.899><c> write</c><00:14:57.120><c> to</c><00:14:57.240><c> me</c><00:14:57.340><c> afterwards</c><00:14:57.600><c> and</c><00:14:57.779><c> say</c>

00:14:57.820 --> 00:14:58.820
we<00:14:57.899><c> don't</c><00:14:58.100><c> like</c><00:14:58.259><c> the</c><00:14:58.340><c> word</c><00:14:58.539><c> Christian.</c>

00:14:59.080 --> 00:15:02.840
I<00:14:59.259><c> happen</c><00:14:59.480><c> to</c><00:14:59.620><c> love</c><00:14:59.740><c> it</c><00:14:59.940><c> if</c><00:15:00.019><c> it's</c><00:15:00.320><c> used</c><00:15:00.460><c> in</c><00:15:01.519><c> the</c><00:15:01.799><c> biblical</c><00:15:02.200><c> context.</c>

00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:04.779
And<00:15:03.039><c> I'm</c><00:15:03.179><c> sure</c><00:15:03.399><c> you</c><00:15:03.580><c> understand</c><00:15:04.039><c> me.</c>

00:15:05.899 --> 00:15:08.299
So<00:15:06.000><c> as</c><00:15:06.460><c> a</c><00:15:06.700><c> Christian</c><00:15:07.080><c> bearing</c><00:15:07.480><c> the</c><00:15:07.740><c> word</c><00:15:07.919><c> of</c><00:15:08.179><c> God,</c>

00:15:08.379 --> 00:15:10.320
we<00:15:08.580><c> are</c><00:15:08.820><c> called</c><00:15:08.980><c> upon</c><00:15:09.200><c> to</c><00:15:09.379><c> flavour</c><00:15:09.559><c> people's</c><00:15:10.100><c> lives.</c>

00:15:10.600 --> 00:15:10.799
It<00:15:10.700><c> will.</c>

00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:13.259
The<00:15:11.100><c> word</c><00:15:11.240><c> of</c><00:15:11.340><c> God</c><00:15:11.519><c> will</c><00:15:11.840><c> add</c><00:15:12.259><c> flavour</c><00:15:12.559><c> to</c><00:15:12.720><c> people's</c><00:15:13.100><c> lives.</c>

00:15:34.340 --> 00:15:36.919
No<00:15:34.480><c> wonder</c><00:15:34.679><c> he</c><00:15:34.860><c> said</c><00:15:35.039><c> you</c><00:15:35.220><c> are</c><00:15:35.379><c> the</c><00:15:35.519><c> salt</c><00:15:35.740><c> of</c><00:15:35.919><c> the</c><00:15:36.059><c> earth.</c>

00:15:39.419 --> 00:15:41.259

00:15:41.539 --> 00:15:43.200

00:15:44.159 --> 00:15:47.600
It's<00:15:44.700><c> a</c><00:15:44.840><c> bit</c><00:15:45.019><c> important,</c><00:15:46.179><c> but</c><00:15:46.379><c> not</c><00:15:46.600><c> very</c><00:15:46.879><c> important.</c>

00:16:08.820 --> 00:16:09.740
Hydro?

00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:10.919
Hydrophilic.

00:16:11.139 --> 00:16:11.559

And<00:18:17.859><c> we</c><00:18:18.960><c> just</c><00:18:19.180><c> told</c><00:18:19.339><c> that</c><00:18:19.579><c> as</c><00:18:19.779><c> a</c><00:18:19.880><c> sort</c><00:18:20.019><c> of</c><00:18:20.119><c> passing</c><00:18:20.319><c> story.</c>

That's<00:18:50.519><c> life.</c>

00:18:52.099 --> 00:18:55.339
And<00:18:52.559><c> so</c><00:18:53.019><c> what</c><00:18:53.359><c> we</c><00:18:53.539><c> have</c><00:18:53.720><c> to</c><00:18:53.839><c> do</c><00:18:53.940><c> is</c><00:18:53.960><c> get</c><00:18:54.119><c> behind</c><00:18:54.339><c> the</c><00:18:54.500><c> words.</c>

Child?

00:32:47.440 --> 00:32:49.640
I've<00:32:47.819><c> been</c><00:32:48.059><c> criticised</c><00:32:48.500><c> for</c><00:32:48.720><c> saying</c><00:32:48.900><c> this.</c>

00:32:49.759 --> 00:32:51.779
It's<00:32:50.180><c> a</c><00:32:50.579><c> scruffy</c><00:32:51.019><c> place.</c>

00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:53.900
Don't<00:32:52.920><c> get</c><00:32:53.119><c> me</c><00:32:53.240><c> wrong,</c><00:32:53.400><c> it'll</c><00:32:53.599><c> change.</c>

00:32:54.079 --> 00:32:56.519
The<00:32:54.180><c> topography</c><00:32:55.160><c> of</c><00:32:55.319><c> the</c><00:32:55.460><c> land</c><00:32:55.599><c> will</c><00:32:56.079><c> change.</c>

00:32:56.819 --> 00:32:58.339
Come<00:32:56.900><c> the</c><00:32:57.039><c> day</c><00:32:57.119><c> of</c><00:32:57.259><c> the</c><00:32:57.339><c> Lord</c><00:32:57.539><c> Jesus</c><00:32:57.880><c> Christ,</c>

00:32:58.640 --> 00:33:00.619
that<00:32:58.779><c> which</c><00:32:58.960><c> is</c><00:32:59.220><c> barren</c><00:32:59.500><c> will</c><00:32:59.740><c> be</c><00:32:59.859><c> made</c><00:33:00.160><c> fruitful</c>

00:33:00.619 --> 00:33:01.900
and<00:33:01.180><c> it'll</c><00:33:01.599><c> blossom.</c>

00:33:01.980 --> 00:33:03.640
Even<00:33:02.200><c> the</c><00:33:02.500><c> desert</c><00:33:02.700><c> will</c><00:33:02.960><c> blossom</c><00:33:03.180><c> as</c><00:33:03.420><c> a</c><00:33:03.480><c> rose.</c>

00:33:03.779 --> 00:33:05.579
But<00:33:03.900><c> it's</c><00:33:04.039><c> not</c><00:33:04.220><c> like</c><00:33:04.460><c> that</c><00:33:04.619><c> now.</c>

00:33:05.920 --> 00:33:09.799
Not<00:33:06.079><c> away</c><00:33:06.319><c> from</c><00:33:06.640><c> the</c><00:33:07.619><c> strip</c><00:33:07.779><c> of</c><00:33:07.980><c> land</c><00:33:08.299><c> joining</c><00:33:08.759><c> Jordan.</c>

00:33:10.140 --> 00:33:11.200
And<00:33:10.319><c> Jordan</c><00:33:10.579><c> at</c><00:33:10.720><c> this</c><00:33:10.839><c> time</c><00:33:10.940><c> of</c><00:33:11.099><c> the</c><00:33:11.140><c> year</c>

00:33:15.400 --> 00:33:16.640
And<00:33:15.680><c> he</c><00:33:15.839><c> said,</c><00:33:16.079><c> jump</c><00:33:16.319><c> in</c><00:33:16.559><c> there.</c>

00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:17.500
You<00:33:16.759><c> must</c><00:33:16.940><c> be</c><00:33:17.200><c> joking.</c>

00:33:17.720 --> 00:33:18.880
If<00:33:17.900><c> you</c><00:33:17.980><c> want</c><00:33:18.099><c> me</c><00:33:18.220><c> to</c><00:33:18.359><c> jump</c><00:33:18.519><c> in</c><00:33:18.660><c> the</c><00:33:18.700><c> river,</c>

00:33:18.900 --> 00:33:20.579
I'll<00:33:19.019><c> go</c><00:33:19.099><c> back</c><00:33:19.279><c> to</c><00:33:19.480><c> Damascus</c>

and<00:33:21.640><c> jump</c><00:33:21.880><c> in</c><00:33:22.039><c> the</c><00:33:22.119><c> two</c><00:33:22.319><c> rivers</c><00:33:22.539><c> there.</c>

00:33:23.460 --> 00:33:25.799
And<00:33:23.779><c> they're</c><00:33:23.960><c> very</c><00:33:24.400><c> fast,</c><00:33:24.859><c> clean,</c><00:33:25.259><c> flowing</c><00:33:25.500><c> rivers</c>

00:33:25.799 --> 00:33:28.220
in<00:33:25.980><c> Damascus,</c><00:33:26.380><c> let</c><00:33:26.500><c> me</c><00:33:26.599><c> tell</c><00:33:26.799><c> you.</c>

00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:31.579

00:33:31.720 --> 00:33:33.579
But<00:33:31.900><c> he</c><00:33:32.160><c> has</c><00:33:32.380><c> some</c><00:33:32.640><c> wise</c><00:33:33.000><c> counsellors.</c>

00:33:33.779 --> 00:33:34.799
And<00:33:33.859><c> the</c><00:33:34.019><c> counsellor</c><00:33:34.279><c> comes</c><00:33:34.480><c> to</c><00:33:34.599><c> him</c><00:33:34.680><c> and</c><00:33:34.680><c> says,</c>

00:33:34.859 --> 00:33:36.559
my<00:33:34.980><c> Lord,</c><00:33:35.519><c> if</c><00:33:35.660><c> the</c><00:33:35.880><c> prophet</c><00:33:36.039><c> had</c><00:33:36.240><c> really</c><00:33:36.380><c> done</c>

00:33:37.859 --> 00:33:39.359
But<00:33:37.900><c> because</c><00:33:38.160><c> he</c><00:33:38.299><c> asked</c><00:33:38.460><c> you</c><00:33:38.579><c> to</c><00:33:38.720><c> do</c><00:33:38.839><c> a</c><00:33:38.980><c> simple</c><00:33:39.160><c> thing,</c>

you<00:33:39.500><c> won't.</c>

00:33:40.299 --> 00:33:43.019
This<00:33:40.559><c> he's</c><00:33:40.839><c> talking</c><00:33:41.180><c> about</c><00:33:41.519><c> me,</c><00:33:41.980><c> brother</c><00:33:42.160><c> David.</c>

00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:45.579
I'd<00:33:43.640><c> love</c><00:33:43.759><c> to</c><00:33:44.000><c> earn</c><00:33:44.079><c> my</c><00:33:44.339><c> own</c><00:33:44.519><c> salvation.</c>

00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:47.180
The<00:33:45.819><c> Lord</c><00:33:45.980><c> has</c><00:33:46.259><c> blessed</c><00:33:46.420><c> me</c><00:33:46.619><c> with</c><00:33:46.779><c> abundant</c>

00:33:47.960 --> 00:33:49.400

00:33:51.339 --> 00:33:52.299
The<00:33:51.359><c> Lord</c><00:33:51.480><c> says,</c><00:33:51.799><c> not</c><00:33:51.799><c> like</c><00:33:52.079><c> that.</c>

00:33:52.339 --> 00:33:53.559
Not<00:33:52.420><c> like</c><00:33:52.759><c> that.</c>

00:33:56.559 --> 00:33:57.980
Anybody<00:33:57.000><c> can</c><00:33:57.380><c> do</c><00:33:57.640><c> that.</c>

00:33:58.200 --> 00:33:59.799
It's<00:33:58.460><c> a</c><00:33:58.619><c> simple</c><00:33:58.940><c> thing.</c>

00:33:59.859 --> 00:34:00.900
And<00:34:00.019><c> because</c><00:34:00.220><c> it's</c><00:34:00.420><c> so</c><00:34:00.660><c> simple,</c>

00:34:00.920 --> 00:34:01.900

00:36:32.059 --> 00:36:33.739

00:36:50.820 --> 00:36:51.760
That's<00:36:51.079><c> what</c><00:36:51.280><c> spitting</c><00:36:51.539><c> is.</c>

00:36:52.019 --> 00:36:54.840

00:36:55.039 --> 00:36:56.679
The<00:36:55.159><c> man</c><00:36:55.400><c> born</c><00:36:55.800><c> blinding</c><00:36:56.380><c> John,</c>

And<00:37:03.019><c> he</c><00:37:03.119><c> did.</c>

00:37:03.480 --> 00:37:04.820
And<00:37:03.599><c> he</c><00:37:03.679><c> came</c><00:37:03.920><c> seeing</c><00:37:04.159><c> because</c><00:37:04.440><c> everything</c>

00:37:09.380 --> 00:37:10.760
And<00:37:09.579><c> so</c><00:37:09.739><c> here</c><00:37:09.980><c> in</c><00:37:10.079><c> Mark</c><00:37:10.300><c> chapter</c><00:37:10.559><c> 8,</c>

00:37:16.219 --> 00:37:17.139
He's<00:37:16.559><c> telling</c><00:37:16.679><c> you</c><00:37:16.880><c> this.</c>

00:37:17.500 --> 00:37:18.619
If<00:37:17.739><c> you</c><00:37:17.900><c> will</c><00:37:18.039><c> come</c><00:37:18.219><c> to</c><00:37:18.400><c> God,</c>

00:37:18.719 --> 00:37:20.079
often<00:37:18.940><c> it</c><00:37:19.079><c> will</c><00:37:19.300><c> involve</c><00:37:19.539><c> degradation.</c>

00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:22.420
People<00:37:20.639><c> will</c><00:37:20.940><c> separate</c><00:37:21.320><c> themselves</c><00:37:21.760><c> from</c><00:37:22.059><c> you</c>

00:37:22.420 --> 00:37:23.699
because<00:37:22.699><c> they</c><00:37:22.900><c> will</c><00:37:23.099><c> hate</c><00:37:23.340><c> you</c>

00:37:28.659 --> 00:37:31.800
It'll<00:37:29.139><c> take</c><00:37:29.420><c> time</c><00:37:29.860><c> and</c><00:37:30.199><c> effort,</c><00:37:30.599><c> but</c><00:37:31.039><c> stick</c><00:37:31.360><c> at</c><00:37:31.559><c> it</c>

and<00:37:31.900><c> you</c><00:37:32.000><c> will</c><00:37:32.179><c> see</c><00:37:32.380><c> the</c><00:37:32.500><c> Lord</c><00:37:32.679><c> Jesus</c><00:37:33.099><c> Christ</c><00:37:33.460><c> clearly.</c>

00:37:34.119 --> 00:37:37.400
And<00:37:34.400><c> that</c><00:37:34.639><c> is</c><00:37:34.920><c> why</c><00:37:35.219><c> Jesus</c><00:37:35.579><c> took</c><00:37:35.860><c> two</c><00:37:36.119><c> efforts</c><00:37:36.639><c> to</c><00:37:36.980><c> clear</c><00:37:37.139><c> the...</c>

00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:40.780

00:37:40.980 --> 00:37:43.239
I<00:37:41.199><c> hate</c><00:37:41.519><c> that</c><00:37:41.780><c> expression</c><00:37:42.099><c> with</c><00:37:42.280><c> the</c><00:37:42.360><c> Lord</c><00:37:42.480><c> Jesus</c><00:37:42.840><c> Christ</c>

00:37:43.239 --> 00:37:45.179
and<00:37:43.880><c> I've</c><00:37:44.159><c> gone</c><00:37:44.300><c> and</c><00:37:44.480><c> used</c><00:37:44.619><c> it.</c>

00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:45.880
Consummate<00:37:45.679><c> ease.</c>

00:37:46.239 --> 00:37:48.099
It<00:37:46.460><c> cost</c><00:37:46.699><c> the</c><00:37:46.880><c> Lord</c><00:37:47.079><c> Jesus</c><00:37:47.519><c> Christ</c><00:37:47.780><c> something</c>

every<00:37:48.480><c> time</c><00:37:48.619><c> he</c><00:37:48.800><c> performed</c><00:37:49.039><c> a</c><00:37:49.199><c> miracle.</c>

00:37:49.860 --> 00:37:52.139
So<00:37:50.139><c> I</c><00:37:50.739><c> stand</c><00:37:51.059><c> condemned</c><00:37:51.719><c> by</c><00:37:51.960><c> saying</c>

00:37:52.139 --> 00:37:53.219

00:37:53.460 --> 00:37:54.380
What<00:37:53.579><c> I</c><00:37:53.699><c> meant</c><00:37:53.860><c> to</c><00:37:54.139><c> say,</c>

00:37:54.400 --> 00:37:56.460
it<00:37:54.619><c> was</c><00:37:54.820><c> the</c><00:37:55.079><c> power</c><00:37:55.380><c> with</c><00:37:55.639><c> which</c><00:37:55.800><c> he</c><00:37:56.000><c> did</c><00:37:56.159><c> it</c>

00:37:56.460 --> 00:37:58.340
and<00:37:56.860><c> he</c><00:37:57.059><c> could</c><00:37:57.179><c> have</c><00:37:57.300><c> done</c><00:37:57.440><c> it</c><00:37:57.659><c> in</c><00:37:57.980><c> one</c><00:37:58.199><c> go,</c>

00:37:58.340 --> 00:37:59.059

00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:01.639
He<00:37:59.320><c> did</c><00:37:59.420><c> it</c><00:37:59.619><c> in</c><00:37:59.780><c> two</c><00:37:59.980><c> goes</c><00:38:00.219><c> for</c><00:38:00.380><c> you</c><00:38:00.559><c> and</c><00:38:00.679><c> me.</c>

00:38:02.500 --> 00:38:04.079
So<00:38:02.780><c> there's</c><00:38:03.079><c> never</c><00:38:03.400><c> ever</c><00:38:03.639><c> a</c><00:38:03.820><c> miracle</c>

00:38:06.059 --> 00:38:08.780
People<00:38:06.539><c> were</c><00:38:06.780><c> never</c><00:38:07.039><c> partly</c><00:38:07.480><c> cured</c><00:38:07.860><c> of</c><00:38:08.039><c> their</c><00:38:08.199><c> leprosy.</c>

00:38:16.280 --> 00:38:17.619
Here<00:38:16.400><c> we</c><00:38:16.519><c> come</c><00:38:16.699><c> to</c><00:38:16.920><c> David.</c>

Oh,<00:38:24.280><c> listen.</c>

It's<00:38:49.539><c> lovely.</c>

00:39:00.500 --> 00:39:02.179
I<00:39:00.619><c> wonder</c><00:39:00.679><c> where</c><00:39:00.840><c> the</c><00:39:01.019><c> leprosy</c><00:39:01.400><c> was.</c>

00:39:02.519 --> 00:39:03.659
I<00:39:02.519><c> wonder</c><00:39:02.820><c> where</c><00:39:03.079><c> it</c><00:39:03.280><c> was.</c>

00:39:03.659 --> 00:39:05.559
I<00:39:04.019><c> think</c><00:39:04.219><c> it</c><00:39:04.300><c> was</c><00:39:04.440><c> on</c><00:39:04.559><c> his</c><00:39:04.780><c> arm.</c>

00:39:05.820 --> 00:39:06.460
Hey,<00:39:05.940><c> maybe</c><00:39:06.139><c> it</c><00:39:06.159><c> was</c><00:39:06.340><c> on.</c>

00:39:06.539 --> 00:39:08.380
Maybe<00:39:06.739><c> he's</c><00:39:06.920><c> got</c><00:39:07.139><c> a</c><00:39:07.239><c> leprous</c><00:39:07.500><c> arm.</c>

00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:10.400
And<00:39:09.239><c> when</c><00:39:09.380><c> he</c><00:39:09.480><c> came</c><00:39:09.639><c> out</c><00:39:09.860><c> of</c><00:39:09.960><c> the</c><00:39:10.099><c> water</c>

00:39:10.400 --> 00:39:12.900
the<00:39:10.840><c> flesh</c><00:39:11.019><c> came</c><00:39:11.280><c> again</c><00:39:11.519><c> as</c><00:39:11.679><c> the</c><00:39:11.840><c> flesh</c><00:39:11.940><c> of</c><00:39:12.079><c> a</c><00:39:12.199><c> little</c><00:39:12.360><c> child.</c>

00:39:13.219 --> 00:39:15.159
Not<00:39:13.360><c> a</c><00:39:13.579><c> great</c><00:39:14.039><c> hairy</c><00:39:14.579><c> ugly</c><00:39:14.920><c> thing</c>

00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:18.659
with<00:39:15.420><c> battle</c><00:39:15.760><c> scars</c><00:39:16.159><c> on</c><00:39:16.460><c> and</c><00:39:16.659><c> hairs</c><00:39:16.920><c> all</c><00:39:17.199><c> over</c><00:39:17.440><c> the</c><00:39:17.639><c> place.</c>

00:39:19.059 --> 00:39:20.619
It<00:39:19.239><c> was</c><00:39:19.400><c> with</c><00:39:19.559><c> him</c><00:39:19.699><c> forever.</c>

00:39:21.659 --> 00:39:22.519
Some<00:39:21.800><c> people</c><00:39:21.980><c> would</c><00:39:22.179><c> say</c><00:39:22.340><c> to</c><00:39:22.380><c> him,</c>

00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:23.539
that's<00:39:22.780><c> a</c><00:39:22.880><c> jolly</c><00:39:23.099><c> strange</c><00:39:23.400><c> art.</c>

00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:25.719
He<00:39:23.840><c> says,</c><00:39:23.940><c> I</c><00:39:24.139><c> used</c><00:39:24.340><c> to</c><00:39:24.440><c> be</c><00:39:24.579><c> leprous</c><00:39:24.840><c> this.</c>

00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:27.860
Used<00:39:26.480><c> to</c><00:39:26.599><c> be</c><00:39:26.719><c> leprous.</c>

00:39:28.099 --> 00:39:30.420
But<00:39:28.340><c> the</c><00:39:28.480><c> Lord</c><00:39:28.679><c> Jesus</c><00:39:29.079><c> Christ,</c><00:39:29.719><c> we</c><00:39:30.119><c> say,</c>

00:39:30.860 --> 00:39:31.539
he<00:39:31.019><c> would</c><00:39:31.199><c> have</c><00:39:31.320><c> said,</c>

00:39:31.539 --> 00:39:34.400
the<00:39:31.820><c> God</c><00:39:32.099><c> of</c><00:39:32.519><c> Elisha</c><00:39:33.019><c> cured</c><00:39:33.340><c> me.</c>

00:39:34.579 --> 00:39:38.539
And<00:39:34.840><c> that's</c><00:39:35.159><c> a</c><00:39:35.260><c> permanent</c><00:39:35.679><c> reminder</c><00:39:36.239><c> of</c><00:39:37.400><c> my</c><00:39:37.639><c> cleansing.</c>

00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:42.780
And<00:39:40.340><c> if</c><00:39:40.500><c> we</c><00:39:40.659><c> read</c><00:39:40.840><c> the</c><00:39:41.019><c> word</c><00:39:41.139><c> of</c><00:39:41.400><c> God</c><00:39:41.599><c> like</c><00:39:42.039><c> that,</c>

00:39:46.039 --> 00:39:47.760
It<00:39:46.119><c> can't</c><00:39:46.460><c> really</c><00:39:46.679><c> be</c><00:39:46.880><c> wrong,</c><00:39:47.320><c> can</c><00:39:47.380><c> it?</c>

00:39:49.860 --> 00:39:51.179
David,<00:39:50.039><c> I</c><00:39:50.179><c> think</c><00:39:50.380><c> I'm</c><00:39:50.559><c> going</c><00:39:50.659><c> to</c><00:39:50.920><c> take</c><00:39:51.059><c> you</c>

00:39:55.900 --> 00:39:58.519
But<00:39:56.360><c> I</c><00:39:56.800><c> promise</c><00:39:57.099><c> I</c><00:39:57.239><c> won't</c><00:39:57.460><c> embarrass</c><00:39:57.780><c> you.</c>

00:40:10.579 --> 00:40:12.139
You<00:40:10.719><c> know,</c><00:40:10.960><c> let's</c><00:40:11.239><c> expand</c><00:40:11.840><c> a</c><00:40:11.980><c> bit.</c>

That's<00:40:14.059><c> what</c><00:40:14.199><c> we</c><00:40:14.420><c> want.</c>

00:40:15.119 --> 00:40:16.880

is<00:44:18.820><c> saved</c><00:44:19.139><c> by</c><00:44:19.380><c> the</c><00:44:19.559><c> god</c><00:44:19.760><c> of</c><00:44:19.960><c> Elisha.</c>

00:44:21.139 --> 00:44:22.480
Now,<00:44:21.300><c> there</c><00:44:21.440><c> is</c><00:44:21.619><c> more</c><00:44:21.860><c> to</c><00:44:22.059><c> it</c><00:44:22.179><c> than</c><00:44:22.380><c> that,</c>

00:44:22.539 --> 00:44:23.480
but<00:44:22.659><c> the</c><00:44:22.800><c> time's</c><00:44:22.980><c> ticking</c><00:44:23.280><c> away</c>

00:44:23.480 --> 00:44:24.719
and<00:44:23.579><c> we</c><00:44:23.699><c> just</c><00:44:23.980><c> do</c><00:44:24.239><c> not</c><00:44:24.440><c> have</c><00:44:24.599><c> time.</c>

00:44:24.940 --> 00:44:26.139
I'd<00:44:25.159><c> love</c><00:44:25.239><c> to</c><00:44:25.360><c> go</c><00:44:25.559><c> down</c><00:44:25.760><c> that</c><00:44:25.960><c> road</c>

00:44:26.139 --> 00:44:27.179
a<00:44:26.300><c> little</c><00:44:26.440><c> bit</c><00:44:26.619><c> further</c><00:44:26.840><c> with</c><00:44:27.000><c> you,</c>

00:44:27.179 --> 00:44:28.719
but<00:44:27.300><c> perhaps</c><00:44:27.460><c> some</c><00:44:27.619><c> other</c><00:44:27.840><c> time.</c>

00:44:30.019 --> 00:44:32.460
So<00:44:30.320><c> we</c><00:44:30.480><c> come</c><00:44:30.639><c> to</c><00:44:31.440><c> chapter</c><00:44:31.820><c> seven,</c>

You've<00:44:36.800><c> got</c><00:44:36.880><c> some</c><00:44:37.039><c> lovely</c><00:44:37.320><c> readers</c><00:44:37.599><c> of</c><00:44:37.800><c> the</c><00:44:37.940><c> word</c><00:44:38.059><c> of</c><00:44:38.260><c> God</c>

00:44:40.840 --> 00:44:42.820

00:44:49.980 --> 00:44:51.239
And<00:44:50.079><c> I'm</c><00:44:50.360><c> grateful.</c>

00:44:51.260 --> 00:44:54.440
If<00:44:51.699><c> you</c><00:44:51.860><c> can</c><00:44:52.019><c> read</c><00:44:52.179><c> the</c><00:44:52.300><c> word</c><00:44:52.400><c> of</c><00:44:52.579><c> God</c><00:44:52.980><c> well,</c><00:44:53.519><c> brethren,</c>

00:44:54.500 --> 00:44:56.780

00:44:57.179 --> 00:44:58.900
And<00:44:57.440><c> if</c><00:44:57.739><c> you're</c><00:44:58.079><c> struggling,</c>

00:44:59.079 --> 00:45:01.869

00:45:04.099 --> 00:45:06.420
We've<00:45:04.599><c> had</c><00:45:04.739><c> some</c><00:45:05.059><c> super</c><00:45:05.360><c> readings</c><00:45:05.659><c> over</c><00:45:05.920><c> this</c><00:45:06.119><c> weekend</c>

00:45:06.420 --> 00:45:07.920
and<00:45:06.780><c> it's</c><00:45:07.059><c> done</c><00:45:07.139><c> me</c><00:45:07.320><c> the</c><00:45:07.500><c> world</c><00:45:07.639><c> of</c><00:45:07.820><c> good</c>

00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:09.329

00:45:11.250 --> 00:45:14.610
And<00:45:11.690><c> so</c><00:45:12.130><c> Samaria</c><00:45:12.650><c> has</c><00:45:13.230><c> been</c><00:45:13.469><c> under</c><00:45:13.789><c> siege</c>

00:45:14.969 --> 00:45:17.150
for<00:45:15.409><c> many,</c><00:45:15.789><c> many</c><00:45:15.989><c> years</c>

00:45:18.550 --> 00:45:20.449
and<00:45:18.989><c> reached</c><00:45:19.429><c> a</c><00:45:19.610><c> state</c><00:45:19.769><c> of</c><00:45:19.989><c> desperation.</c>

00:45:20.730 --> 00:45:24.769
Even<00:45:21.070><c> cannibalism</c><00:45:22.650><c> taking</c><00:45:23.170><c> place</c><00:45:23.550><c> in</c><00:45:23.730><c> the</c><00:45:23.849><c> city</c>

00:45:25.949 --> 00:45:29.090
and<00:45:26.389><c> four</c><00:45:26.829><c> leperous</c><00:45:27.309><c> men</c><00:45:27.489><c> are</c><00:45:27.710><c> put</c><00:45:27.829><c> outside.</c>

00:45:29.389 --> 00:45:30.250
I<00:45:29.530><c> mean,</c><00:45:29.530><c> they've</c><00:45:29.650><c> got</c><00:45:29.769><c> enough</c><00:45:29.949><c> problems</c>

00:45:30.250 --> 00:45:31.250
in<00:45:30.429><c> the</c><00:45:30.570><c> city</c><00:45:30.710><c> with</c><00:45:30.909><c> the</c><00:45:31.070><c> siege,</c>

00:45:31.409 --> 00:45:32.449
let<00:45:31.469><c> alone</c><00:45:31.730><c> leprosy.</c>

00:45:32.670 --> 00:45:34.050
So<00:45:32.889><c> they</c><00:45:33.050><c> put</c><00:45:33.250><c> the</c><00:45:33.429><c> four</c><00:45:33.610><c> men</c><00:45:33.730><c> outside,</c>

00:45:34.150 --> 00:45:35.610
give<00:45:34.250><c> them</c><00:45:34.409><c> their</c><00:45:34.630><c> bells</c><00:45:34.829><c> and</c><00:45:35.050><c> their</c><00:45:35.210><c> placards,</c>

00:45:35.829 --> 00:45:38.710
unclean,<00:45:36.269><c> ring,</c><00:45:36.489><c> ring,</c><00:45:37.050><c> ring,</c><00:45:37.070><c> unclean</c><00:45:37.469><c> like</c><00:45:37.710><c> this.</c>

00:45:39.590 --> 00:45:43.210
And<00:45:39.949><c> so</c><00:45:40.309><c> the</c><00:45:41.030><c> leperous</c><00:45:41.489><c> men</c><00:45:41.929><c> say</c><00:45:42.250><c> to</c><00:45:42.710><c> themselves,</c>

00:45:43.230 --> 00:45:45.289
they<00:45:43.349><c> have</c><00:45:43.829><c> a</c><00:45:44.789><c> committee</c><00:45:44.969><c> meeting</c>

00:45:45.289 --> 00:45:49.150
and<00:45:45.889><c> they</c><00:45:46.130><c> say,</c><00:45:46.849><c> let's</c><00:45:47.469><c> fall</c><00:45:47.789><c> to</c><00:45:47.989><c> the</c><00:45:48.150><c> Syrians.</c>

00:45:50.630 --> 00:45:51.449
We'll<00:45:50.809><c> go</c><00:45:50.909><c> to</c><00:45:51.030><c> the</c><00:45:51.190><c> enemy.</c>

00:45:51.550 --> 00:45:52.769
They'll<00:45:51.809><c> probably</c><00:45:52.130><c> kill</c><00:45:52.349><c> us</c>

00:45:53.170 --> 00:45:54.690
but<00:45:53.530><c> at</c><00:45:53.670><c> least</c><00:45:53.789><c> they</c><00:45:53.909><c> might</c><00:45:54.070><c> feed</c><00:45:54.329><c> us.</c>

00:45:55.190 --> 00:45:56.309
We<00:45:55.329><c> can't</c><00:45:55.489><c> go</c><00:45:55.650><c> back</c><00:45:55.809><c> into</c><00:45:55.989><c> the</c><00:45:56.150><c> city.</c>

00:45:56.309 --> 00:45:56.889
They<00:45:56.409><c> won't</c><00:45:56.570><c> have</c><00:45:56.730><c> us.</c>

00:45:56.889 --> 00:45:57.969
We're<00:45:57.070><c> going</c><00:45:57.150><c> to</c><00:45:57.309><c> die</c><00:45:57.449><c> here</c><00:45:57.690><c> anyway.</c>

00:45:58.170 --> 00:46:00.230
So<00:45:58.530><c> let's</c><00:45:59.250><c> go</c><00:45:59.690><c> to</c><00:45:59.849><c> the</c><00:45:59.989><c> Syrians.</c>

00:46:00.230 --> 00:46:00.750
And<00:46:00.369><c> they</c><00:46:00.550><c> did.</c>

00:46:00.909 --> 00:46:06.769
And<00:46:01.030><c> as</c><00:46:01.170><c> you</c><00:46:01.269><c> know,</c><00:46:01.469><c> they</c><00:46:01.610><c> found</c><00:46:03.210><c> the</c><00:46:04.929><c> tents</c><00:46:05.849><c> empty.</c>

00:46:06.789 --> 00:46:07.869
I<00:46:07.110><c> must</c><00:46:07.289><c> just</c><00:46:07.489><c> tell</c><00:46:07.590><c> you</c><00:46:07.730><c> this.</c>

00:46:07.869 --> 00:46:09.610
Will<00:46:07.989><c> you</c><00:46:08.230><c> excuse</c><00:46:08.510><c> the</c><00:46:08.789><c> personal</c><00:46:09.110><c> pronoun</c>

00:46:09.610 --> 00:46:11.150

00:46:11.409 --> 00:46:13.170
And<00:46:11.690><c> then</c><00:46:12.230><c> I've</c><00:46:12.510><c> stopped.</c>

00:46:14.429 --> 00:46:16.610
I<00:46:14.989><c> love</c><00:46:15.190><c> telling</c><00:46:15.469><c> stories</c>

00:46:17.389 --> 00:46:21.369
and<00:46:17.949><c> did</c><00:46:18.309><c> so</c><00:46:18.730><c> all</c><00:46:19.429><c> the</c><00:46:19.670><c> time</c><00:46:19.969><c> to</c><00:46:20.389><c> our</c><00:46:20.769><c> two</c><00:46:21.150><c> girls</c>

when<00:46:21.730><c> they</c><00:46:21.929><c> were</c><00:46:22.070><c> growing</c>

00:46:22.230 --> 00:46:24.969
and<00:46:22.449><c> still</c><00:46:22.690><c> do,</c><00:46:23.489><c> given</c><00:46:23.750><c> the</c><00:46:23.929><c> opportunity.</c>

00:46:25.050 --> 00:46:26.530
And<00:46:25.570><c> I</c><00:46:25.610><c> love</c><00:46:25.769><c> telling</c><00:46:26.090><c> them</c><00:46:26.329><c> stories.</c>

00:46:26.889 --> 00:46:29.469

at<00:46:33.130><c> breakfast</c><00:46:33.449><c> time.</c>

00:46:34.309 --> 00:46:37.510
And<00:46:34.769><c> she</c><00:46:35.070><c> always</c><00:46:35.289><c> did</c><00:46:35.570><c> engage</c><00:46:36.610><c> mouth</c>

00:46:37.510 --> 00:46:40.650
and<00:46:37.630><c> then</c><00:46:37.849><c> brain</c><00:46:38.210><c> in</c><00:46:39.510><c> that</c><00:46:39.769><c> order.</c>

00:46:40.670 --> 00:46:42.929
Try<00:46:40.929><c> as</c><00:46:41.210><c> we</c><00:46:41.889><c> could</c><00:46:42.150><c> to</c><00:46:42.469><c> persuade</c><00:46:42.769><c> her</c>

00:46:42.929 --> 00:46:43.989

00:46:44.349 --> 00:46:45.309
The<00:46:44.530><c> words</c><00:46:44.650><c> always</c><00:46:44.909><c> came</c><00:46:45.110><c> out</c>

00:46:45.309 --> 00:46:46.829
and<00:46:45.429><c> then</c><00:46:45.530><c> she</c><00:46:45.690><c> thought</c><00:46:45.889><c> about</c><00:46:46.110><c> them.</c>

00:46:47.590 --> 00:46:48.949
And<00:46:47.710><c> we</c><00:46:47.929><c> were</c><00:46:48.110><c> telling</c><00:46:48.349><c> this</c><00:46:48.670><c> story</c>

00:46:48.949 --> 00:46:49.989
and<00:46:49.110><c> I</c><00:46:49.190><c> said</c><00:46:49.289><c> they</c><00:46:49.449><c> had</c><00:46:49.570><c> their</c><00:46:49.789><c> bells</c>

00:46:49.989 --> 00:46:51.230
and<00:46:50.590><c> their</c><00:46:50.829><c> labels</c>

00:46:51.230 --> 00:46:52.789

00:46:52.989 --> 00:46:55.389
And<00:46:53.030><c> then</c><00:46:53.550><c> they</c><00:46:53.710><c> went</c><00:46:53.869><c> to</c><00:46:54.030><c> the</c><00:46:54.150><c> tent</c><00:46:54.250><c> of</c><00:46:54.429><c> the</c><00:46:54.570><c> Syrians.</c>

00:46:55.769 --> 00:46:58.570
I<00:46:56.030><c> said,</c><00:46:56.750><c> I</c><00:46:57.150><c> wonder</c><00:46:57.449><c> how</c><00:46:57.849><c> they</c><00:46:58.070><c> would</c><00:46:58.250><c> attract</c>

00:46:58.570 --> 00:46:59.929
the<00:46:58.889><c> attention</c><00:46:59.210><c> of</c><00:46:59.389><c> the</c><00:46:59.610><c> people</c>

00:46:59.929 --> 00:47:02.369
who<00:47:00.230><c> they</c><00:47:00.630><c> thought</c><00:47:00.969><c> were</c><00:47:01.289><c> in</c><00:47:01.510><c> the</c><00:47:01.650><c> tent.</c>

00:47:02.550 --> 00:47:04.329
Do<00:47:02.730><c> you</c><00:47:02.750><c> think</c><00:47:02.849><c> they</c><00:47:03.010><c> might</c><00:47:03.190><c> knock</c><00:47:03.389><c> the</c><00:47:03.610><c> tent</c><00:47:03.809><c> post</c>

00:47:04.329 --> 00:47:06.650
or<00:47:04.630><c> would</c><00:47:04.769><c> they</c><00:47:05.050><c> shake</c><00:47:05.230><c> the</c><00:47:06.269><c> canvas?</c>

00:47:06.650 --> 00:47:09.170
She<00:47:07.369><c> said,</c><00:47:07.650><c> perhaps</c><00:47:07.909><c> they</c><00:47:08.070><c> rang</c><00:47:08.230><c> the</c><00:47:08.369><c> bell.</c>

00:47:12.389 --> 00:47:13.369
Nice.

00:47:15.989 --> 00:47:18.170
But<00:47:16.409><c> there</c><00:47:16.550><c> was</c><00:47:16.690><c> nobody</c><00:47:16.869><c> in</c><00:47:17.090><c> the</c><00:47:17.190><c> tent.</c>

00:47:19.449 --> 00:47:21.289
And<00:47:19.929><c> as</c><00:47:20.409><c> you</c><00:47:20.590><c> know,</c>

00:47:21.829 --> 00:47:22.730
they<00:47:22.030><c> ransacked</c><00:47:22.489><c> them</c>

00:47:23.130 --> 00:47:25.389

00:47:26.969 --> 00:47:29.429
Take<00:47:27.269><c> care</c><00:47:27.510><c> where</c><00:47:27.690><c> you</c><00:47:27.869><c> hide</c><00:47:27.969><c> treasure,</c><00:47:28.690><c> will</c><00:47:28.769><c> you?</c>

There<00:47:30.510><c> is</c><00:47:30.769><c> treasure</c><00:47:31.030><c> and</c><00:47:31.250><c> there's</c><00:47:31.469><c> treasure.</c>

00:47:31.710 --> 00:47:32.769
Treasure<00:47:31.969><c> that</c><00:47:32.170><c> belongs</c><00:47:32.369><c> to</c><00:47:32.610><c> God</c>

00:47:35.210 --> 00:47:36.289
Treasure<00:47:35.469><c> that</c><00:47:35.690><c> belongs</c><00:47:35.929><c> to</c><00:47:36.130><c> God</c>

And<00:47:56.070><c> these</c><00:47:56.510><c> leprous</c><00:47:56.969><c> men</c>

00:48:00.150 --> 00:48:01.230
