00:03:45.460 --> 00:03:48.240
So<00:03:45.680><c> you</c><00:03:45.840><c> have</c><00:03:46.120><c> the</c><00:03:46.300><c> meanings</c><00:03:46.539><c> of</c><00:03:46.759><c> all</c><00:03:46.960><c> of</c><00:03:47.120><c> these</c><00:03:47.300><c> names.</c>

You<00:03:55.099><c> see,</c><00:03:55.360><c> initially,</c><00:03:56.180><c> we</c><00:03:56.340><c> would</c><00:03:56.580><c> react</c><00:03:57.000><c> to</c><00:03:57.300><c> Eliashib.</c>

00:03:58.379 --> 00:04:00.500
And<00:03:58.539><c> we</c><00:03:58.659><c> would</c><00:03:58.780><c> say,</c><00:03:59.199><c> there</c><00:03:59.360><c> is</c><00:03:59.659><c> a</c><00:03:59.840><c> good</c><00:04:00.020><c> man.</c>

There<00:04:01.159><c> is</c><00:04:01.479><c> the</c><00:04:01.620><c> high</c><00:04:01.939><c> priest</c><00:04:02.280><c> showing</c><00:04:02.900><c> the</c><00:04:03.219><c> example.</c>

00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:06.939
There<00:04:04.259><c> is</c><00:04:04.500><c> a</c><00:04:04.639><c> man</c><00:04:04.780><c> who</c><00:04:04.939><c> is</c><00:04:05.139><c> a</c><00:04:05.319><c> worker</c><00:04:05.539><c> for</c><00:04:05.780><c> the</c><00:04:06.000><c> truth.</c>

And<00:04:07.319><c> so</c><00:04:07.479><c> it</c><00:04:07.580><c> would</c><00:04:07.879><c> seem</c><00:04:08.060><c> at</c><00:04:08.319><c> the</c><00:04:08.419><c> outset.</c>

00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:14.500

00:27:09.230 --> 00:27:13.089

00:27:28.450 --> 00:27:29.349
That's<00:27:28.630><c> what</c><00:27:28.730><c> they</c><00:27:28.930><c> were</c><00:27:28.970><c> saying.</c>

00:27:43.430 --> 00:27:45.450
So<00:27:43.809><c> the</c><00:27:44.069><c> fear</c><00:27:44.269><c> would</c><00:27:44.549><c> grow.</c>

Therefore,<00:28:15.210><c> set</c><00:28:15.349><c> eye,</c><00:28:17.069><c> says</c><00:28:17.210><c> Meir</c><00:28:17.589><c> Meir</c><00:28:17.890><c> in</c><00:28:18.210><c> his</c><00:28:18.490><c> diary.</c>

00:28:19.829 --> 00:28:25.869
There<00:28:20.309><c> was</c><00:28:20.549><c> a</c><00:28:20.910><c> time</c><00:28:21.289><c> now</c><00:28:21.789><c> for</c><00:28:22.329><c> immediate,</c><00:28:22.970><c> urgent</c><00:28:23.529><c> action</c><00:28:24.170><c> yet</c><00:28:24.710><c> again.</c>

00:28:26.210 --> 00:28:28.930
And<00:28:26.430><c> he</c><00:28:26.529><c> takes</c><00:28:26.950><c> it,</c><00:28:27.490><c> and</c><00:28:27.650><c> he</c><00:28:27.809><c> does</c><00:28:28.069><c> it.</c>

00:28:29.829 --> 00:28:34.309
He's<00:28:30.250><c> got</c><00:28:30.609><c> to</c><00:28:31.109><c> quell</c><00:28:31.549><c> the</c><00:28:31.890><c> fears</c><00:28:32.309><c> that</c><00:28:32.569><c> are</c><00:28:32.809><c> there</c><00:28:33.029><c> in</c><00:28:33.210><c> the</c><00:28:33.430><c> people.</c>

00:28:34.869 --> 00:28:37.750
He<00:28:35.049><c> set</c><00:28:35.170><c> some</c><00:28:35.450><c> on</c><00:28:35.650><c> the</c><00:28:35.809><c> lower</c><00:28:36.029><c> places,</c><00:28:36.690><c> some</c><00:28:36.930><c> behind</c><00:28:37.349><c> the</c><00:28:37.609><c> wall,</c>

00:28:37.950 --> 00:28:39.849
some<00:28:38.190><c> on</c><00:28:38.390><c> the</c><00:28:38.549><c> higher</c><00:28:38.750><c> places</c><00:28:39.109><c> as</c><00:28:39.329><c> watchmen.</c>

00:28:40.210 --> 00:28:42.970
I<00:28:40.509><c> even</c><00:28:40.809><c> set</c><00:28:40.990><c> the</c><00:28:41.250><c> people</c><00:28:41.490><c> after</c><00:28:41.789><c> their</c><00:28:42.049><c> families</c><00:28:42.349><c> with</c><00:28:42.549><c> their</c><00:28:42.769><c> swords.</c>

00:28:43.190 --> 00:28:45.150
Even<00:28:43.450><c> if</c><00:28:43.549><c> they</c><00:28:43.769><c> weren't</c><00:28:43.930><c> on</c><00:28:44.130><c> the</c><00:28:44.250><c> wall,</c><00:28:44.390><c> they</c><00:28:44.490><c> were</c><00:28:44.670><c> at</c><00:28:44.750><c> their</c><00:28:44.950><c> homes.</c>

00:28:45.150 --> 00:28:47.970
I<00:28:45.549><c> set</c><00:28:45.809><c> them</c><00:28:46.089><c> there</c><00:28:46.490><c> as</c><00:28:46.670><c> watchmen</c><00:28:46.970><c> with</c><00:28:47.309><c> their</c><00:28:47.650><c> families,</c>

00:28:50.529 --> 00:28:53.109
that<00:28:50.769><c> each</c><00:28:51.130><c> of</c><00:28:51.289><c> them</c><00:28:51.369><c> would</c><00:28:51.750><c> feel</c><00:28:52.069><c> that</c><00:28:52.230><c> they</c><00:28:52.410><c> were</c><00:28:52.650><c> fighting</c>

00:28:53.109 --> 00:28:56.089
for<00:28:53.369><c> their</c><00:28:54.029><c> brethren</c><00:28:54.490><c> and</c><00:28:54.890><c> sisters.</c>

00:28:58.430 --> 00:29:05.809
That<00:28:59.069><c> each</c><00:28:59.630><c> of</c><00:29:00.289><c> them</c><00:29:01.430><c> would</c><00:29:01.950><c> feel</c><00:29:02.650><c> that</c><00:29:04.190><c> they</c><00:29:04.470><c> were</c><00:29:04.710><c> fighting</c>

00:29:06.509 --> 00:29:11.170
for<00:29:07.150><c> every</c><00:29:07.490><c> brother</c><00:29:08.210><c> and</c><00:29:09.549><c> every</c><00:29:09.849><c> sister</c><00:29:10.190><c> there.</c>

00:29:13.529 --> 00:29:17.150
The<00:29:14.089><c> exhortation</c><00:29:14.650><c> is</c><00:29:14.910><c> self</c><00:29:15.109><c>-evident,</c><00:29:15.470><c> isn't</c><00:29:15.750><c> it?</c>

00:29:17.710 --> 00:29:20.130
And<00:29:17.890><c> then</c><00:29:18.170><c> look</c><00:29:18.410><c> at</c><00:29:18.630><c> verse</c><00:29:18.869><c> 14.</c>

00:29:20.190 --> 00:29:22.869
He<00:29:20.309><c> just</c><00:29:20.710><c> doesn't</c><00:29:21.230><c> leave</c><00:29:21.490><c> it</c><00:29:21.750><c> to</c><00:29:22.009><c> them.</c>

00:29:23.130 --> 00:29:24.970
He<00:29:23.269><c> says,</c><00:29:24.049><c> then</c><00:29:24.049><c> I</c><00:29:24.589><c> looked.</c>

00:29:25.349 --> 00:29:27.029
He<00:29:25.670><c> was</c><00:29:25.990><c> watching</c><00:29:26.349><c> as</c><00:29:26.630><c> well</c><00:29:26.769><c> as</c><00:29:26.970><c> they.</c>

00:29:27.170 --> 00:29:28.710
He<00:29:27.349><c> wasn't</c><00:29:27.650><c> just</c><00:29:27.930><c> there</c><00:29:28.170><c> giving</c><00:29:28.410><c> orders.</c>

00:29:28.789 --> 00:29:29.869
We're<00:29:29.009><c> all</c><00:29:29.190><c> good</c><00:29:29.349><c> at</c><00:29:29.430><c> doing</c><00:29:29.690><c> that.</c>

00:29:29.869 --> 00:29:31.789
I'm<00:29:30.150><c> great</c><00:29:30.450><c> at</c><00:29:30.630><c> giving</c><00:29:30.849><c> orders.</c>

00:29:31.950 --> 00:29:34.170
I'm<00:29:32.210><c> terrific</c><00:29:32.650><c> at</c><00:29:32.809><c> giving</c><00:29:33.089><c> orders.</c>

00:29:34.890 --> 00:29:37.049
But<00:29:35.170><c> Nehemiah</c><00:29:35.569><c> was</c><00:29:35.730><c> terrific</c><00:29:36.150><c> at</c><00:29:36.289><c> giving</c><00:29:36.569><c> orders.</c>

00:29:37.450 --> 00:29:39.009
He<00:29:37.569><c> was</c><00:29:37.750><c> terrific</c><00:29:38.130><c> at</c><00:29:38.369><c> carrying</c><00:29:38.569><c> them</c><00:29:38.809><c> out.</c>

00:29:39.009 --> 00:29:41.329
He<00:29:39.349><c> was</c><00:29:39.529><c> terrific</c><00:29:40.049><c> at</c><00:29:40.289><c> being</c><00:29:40.569><c> the</c><00:29:40.930><c> example.</c>

00:29:41.609 --> 00:29:43.509
I<00:29:41.990><c> looked</c><00:29:42.430><c> as</c><00:29:42.910><c> a</c><00:29:43.109><c> watchman.</c>

00:29:43.589 --> 00:29:44.970
He<00:29:43.829><c> was</c><00:29:44.150><c> still</c><00:29:44.529><c> watching.</c>

00:29:45.309 --> 00:29:47.609
And<00:29:45.369><c> he</c><00:29:45.529><c> rose</c><00:29:45.829><c> up</c><00:29:46.250><c> and</c><00:29:46.369><c> said</c><00:29:46.569><c> to</c><00:29:46.710><c> the</c><00:29:46.849><c> nobles</c><00:29:47.089><c> and</c><00:29:47.269><c> to</c><00:29:47.430><c> the</c><00:29:47.430><c> rulers,</c>

00:29:47.730 --> 00:29:49.730
to<00:29:47.829><c> the</c><00:29:47.890><c> rest</c><00:29:48.109><c> of</c><00:29:48.250><c> the</c><00:29:48.369><c> people,</c><00:29:48.930><c> be</c><00:29:49.029><c> not</c><00:29:49.230><c> afraid</c><00:29:49.470><c> of</c><00:29:49.650><c> them.</c>

00:29:49.789 --> 00:29:50.210
Why?

00:29:50.349 --> 00:29:53.549
He'd<00:29:50.710><c> seen</c><00:29:50.869><c> the</c><00:29:51.230><c> army</c><00:29:51.549><c> coming</c><00:29:51.910><c> towards</c><00:29:52.369><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:29:54.809 --> 00:29:57.609
He'd<00:29:55.170><c> seen</c><00:29:55.430><c> that</c><00:29:55.930><c> which</c><00:29:56.069><c> had</c><00:29:56.250><c> been</c><00:29:56.509><c> promised</c><00:29:56.750><c> by</c><00:29:57.029><c> Sambala</c>

00:29:57.609 --> 00:29:59.329
start<00:29:58.230><c> to</c><00:29:58.569><c> come</c><00:29:58.769><c> to</c><00:29:59.069><c> pass.</c>

00:29:59.509 --> 00:30:02.009
But<00:29:59.670><c> he</c><00:29:59.789><c> says,</c><00:30:00.589><c> be</c><00:30:00.670><c> not</c><00:30:00.910><c> afraid.</c>

00:30:04.170 --> 00:30:06.630
Remember<00:30:04.690><c> Yahweh,</c><00:30:05.789><c> great</c><00:30:06.069><c> and</c><00:30:06.430><c> terrible.</c>

00:30:06.630 --> 00:30:09.829
That's<00:30:07.130><c> one</c><00:30:07.349><c> of</c><00:30:07.509><c> the</c><00:30:07.690><c> 134</c><00:30:08.490><c> occasions</c><00:30:08.990><c> where</c><00:30:09.289><c> the</c><00:30:09.470><c> Soferim</c>

00:30:09.829 --> 00:30:11.670
have<00:30:10.009><c> altered</c><00:30:10.250><c> Yahweh</c><00:30:10.809><c> to</c><00:30:11.210><c> Adonai.</c>

00:30:12.009 --> 00:30:13.650
That<00:30:12.309><c> is</c><00:30:12.589><c> Yahweh</c><00:30:12.970><c> in</c><00:30:13.150><c> the</c><00:30:13.309><c> original.</c>

00:30:14.069 --> 00:30:16.690
Remember<00:30:14.569><c> Yahweh,</c><00:30:15.589><c> great</c><00:30:15.769><c> and</c><00:30:16.009><c> terrible.</c>

00:30:16.809 --> 00:30:18.009
What's<00:30:17.130><c> he</c><00:30:17.210><c> saying?</c>

00:30:18.190 --> 00:30:20.309
The<00:30:18.369><c> prayer</c><00:30:18.730><c> that</c><00:30:18.950><c> I</c><00:30:19.210><c> gave.</c>

00:30:20.569 --> 00:30:21.990
Remember<00:30:20.769><c> Nehemiah</c><00:30:21.269><c> chapter</c><00:30:21.589><c> 1.</c>

00:30:22.329 --> 00:30:25.410
Oh<00:30:22.529><c> Yahweh,</c><00:30:23.269><c> their</c><00:30:23.289><c> great</c><00:30:23.670><c> and</c><00:30:24.029><c> terrible</c><00:30:24.309><c> God.</c>

00:30:27.109 --> 00:30:31.029
He's<00:30:27.349><c> reminding</c><00:30:27.890><c> them</c><00:30:28.430><c> of</c><00:30:29.009><c> the</c><00:30:29.289><c> covenants</c><00:30:29.710><c> of</c><00:30:30.009><c> promise.</c>

00:30:31.849 --> 00:30:34.029
And<00:30:32.029><c> what</c><00:30:32.230><c> does</c><00:30:32.450><c> he</c><00:30:32.730><c> say?</c>

00:30:39.150 --> 00:30:41.650
Remember<00:30:39.789><c> Yahweh,</c><00:30:40.809><c> great</c><00:30:41.049><c> and</c><00:30:41.289><c> terrible.</c>

00:30:42.150 --> 00:30:45.670
And<00:30:42.390><c> so</c><00:30:42.789><c> shall</c><00:30:43.130><c> ye</c><00:30:43.369><c> fight</c><00:30:43.930><c> for</c><00:30:44.450><c> your</c><00:30:44.710><c> brethren,</c>

00:30:46.329 --> 00:30:51.869
your<00:30:46.650><c> sons,</c><00:30:47.670><c> your</c><00:30:47.950><c> daughters,</c><00:30:48.970><c> your</c><00:30:49.289><c> wives,</c><00:30:50.369><c> and</c><00:30:50.670><c> your</c><00:30:50.910><c> houses.</c>

00:30:52.950 --> 00:30:56.130
If<00:30:53.490><c> you</c><00:30:53.710><c> don't</c><00:30:53.950><c> do</c><00:30:54.170><c> it,</c><00:30:54.349><c> he's</c><00:30:54.529><c> saying</c><00:30:54.630><c> it's</c><00:30:54.930><c> all</c><00:30:55.009><c> for</c><00:30:55.210><c> nothing.</c>

00:30:56.970 --> 00:30:58.710
Is<00:30:57.190><c> that</c><00:30:57.369><c> what</c><00:30:57.509><c> you</c><00:30:57.789><c> want?</c>

00:30:58.930 --> 00:31:01.470
That<00:30:59.109><c> it</c><00:30:59.309><c> should</c><00:30:59.609><c> all</c><00:31:00.069><c> be</c><00:31:00.349><c> for</c><00:31:00.569><c> nothing?</c>

In<00:39:47.849><c> chapter</c><00:39:48.110><c> 5,</c><00:39:49.769><c> we</c><00:39:49.869><c> have</c><00:39:50.130><c> the</c><00:39:50.510><c> grievance</c><00:39:51.349><c> from</c><00:39:51.849><c> the</c><00:39:52.090><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:39:59.150 --> 00:40:02.610

00:40:06.510 --> 00:40:09.090
Problems<00:40:07.190><c> now</c><00:40:07.670><c> arise,</c><00:40:08.269><c> brothers</c><00:40:08.530><c> and</c><00:40:08.590><c> sisters,</c>

00:40:13.130 --> 00:40:17.730

00:40:18.469 --> 00:40:20.670
And<00:40:18.510><c> again,</c><00:40:19.269><c> Nehemiah,</c><00:40:19.750><c> as</c><00:40:19.949><c> we</c><00:40:20.110><c> will</c><00:40:20.309><c> see,</c>

00:40:24.969 --> 00:40:28.550

00:40:28.630 --> 00:40:34.409
because<00:40:29.110><c> he</c><00:40:29.369><c> is</c><00:40:29.610><c> able</c><00:40:29.929><c> to</c><00:40:30.449><c> show</c><00:40:30.969><c> to</c><00:40:32.730><c> those</c><00:40:33.250><c> around</c><00:40:33.690><c> him</c><00:40:34.110><c> who</c>

And<00:40:45.630><c> what</c><00:40:45.809><c> an</c><00:40:46.130><c> example</c><00:40:46.530><c> he</c><00:40:46.730><c> is</c><00:40:47.329><c> to</c><00:40:47.570><c> them</c><00:40:48.170><c> and</c><00:40:48.849><c> to</c><00:40:49.050><c> us</c><00:40:49.269><c> also.</c>

00:40:51.090 --> 00:40:55.329
And<00:40:51.210><c> that</c><00:40:51.449><c> example</c><00:40:52.250><c> brings</c><00:40:53.130><c> them</c><00:40:53.329><c> into</c><00:40:53.650><c> a</c><00:40:53.869><c> state</c><00:40:54.150><c> of</c><00:40:54.570><c> humiliation</c>

00:41:01.610 --> 00:41:05.349
Now<00:41:02.130><c> there</c><00:41:02.349><c> was</c><00:41:02.630><c> a</c><00:41:02.829><c> great</c><00:41:03.210><c> cry</c><00:41:03.610><c> of</c><00:41:03.869><c> the</c><00:41:04.130><c> people</c><00:41:04.449><c> and</c><00:41:04.670><c> of</c><00:41:04.769><c> their</c><00:41:04.989><c> wives</c>

00:41:07.869 --> 00:41:11.929
And<00:41:08.010><c> the</c><00:41:08.170><c> Jerusalem</c><00:41:08.449><c> Bible</c><00:41:08.829><c> says</c><00:41:09.150><c> they</c><00:41:09.449><c> were</c><00:41:09.789><c> complaining</c><00:41:10.489><c> loudly</c>

00:41:14.730 --> 00:41:18.150
within<00:41:15.250><c> the</c><00:41:15.510><c> Ecclesia,</c><00:41:16.170><c> those</c><00:41:16.489><c> that</c><00:41:16.650><c> were</c><00:41:16.809><c> better</c><00:41:17.130><c> off.</c>

00:41:18.530 --> 00:41:20.409
For<00:41:18.869><c> there</c><00:41:19.250><c> were</c><00:41:19.530><c> there</c><00:41:19.809><c> that</c><00:41:20.150><c> said,</c>

We,<00:41:21.050><c> our</c><00:41:21.309><c> sons</c><00:41:21.489><c> and</c><00:41:21.630><c> our</c><00:41:21.829><c> daughters,</c><00:41:22.130><c> are</c><00:41:22.289><c> many.</c>

00:41:23.050 --> 00:41:25.550
Therefore<00:41:23.349><c> we</c><00:41:23.590><c> take</c><00:41:23.829><c> up</c><00:41:24.050><c> corn</c><00:41:24.269><c> for</c><00:41:24.389><c> them,</c><00:41:24.550><c> we</c><00:41:24.670><c> may</c><00:41:24.929><c> eat</c><00:41:25.130><c> and</c><00:41:25.349><c> live.</c>

00:41:25.550 --> 00:41:27.329
Some<00:41:26.349><c> also</c><00:41:26.730><c> here</c><00:41:27.050><c> have</c><00:41:27.230><c> said,</c>

00:41:27.449 --> 00:41:29.469
We've<00:41:27.710><c> mortgaged</c><00:41:27.949><c> our</c><00:41:28.250><c> lands,</c><00:41:28.670><c> vineyards,</c><00:41:29.090><c> houses,</c>

00:41:31.329 --> 00:41:33.670
We've<00:41:31.789><c> borrowed</c><00:41:31.969><c> money</c><00:41:32.289><c> for</c><00:41:32.469><c> the</c><00:41:32.650><c> king's</c><00:41:32.989><c> tribute</c><00:41:33.250><c> on</c><00:41:33.469><c> our</c>

00:50:19.610 --> 00:50:20.130
Why?

00:50:20.469 --> 00:50:23.190
Because<00:50:20.829><c> he</c><00:50:20.989><c> says</c><00:50:21.309><c> at</c><00:50:21.550><c> the</c><00:50:21.730><c> end</c><00:50:22.349><c> of</c><00:50:22.610><c> verse</c><00:50:22.789><c> seven,</c>

00:50:42.449 --> 00:50:44.130
don't<00:50:42.650><c> go</c><00:50:42.869><c> and</c><00:50:42.909><c> talk</c><00:50:43.110><c> to</c><00:50:43.190><c> somebody</c><00:50:43.469><c> else</c><00:50:43.690><c> about</c><00:50:43.949><c> it</c>

00:51:07.269 --> 00:51:08.789

00:51:10.550 --> 00:51:11.349
That's<00:51:10.730><c> what</c><00:51:10.869><c> they</c><00:51:11.010><c> were</c><00:51:11.110><c> doing.</c>

00:51:11.550 --> 00:51:13.489

00:54:11.849 --> 00:54:13.389
Also<00:54:12.170><c> I</c><00:54:12.369><c> shook</c><00:54:12.550><c> my</c><00:54:12.769><c> lap</c><00:54:12.929><c> and</c><00:54:13.150><c> said,</c>

00:54:15.989 --> 00:54:17.449
And<00:54:16.230><c> here's</c><00:54:16.469><c> a</c><00:54:16.650><c> prayer</c><00:54:16.869><c> of</c><00:54:17.090><c> Nehemiah.</c>

00:54:17.690 --> 00:54:20.030
So<00:54:17.909><c> God</c><00:54:18.210><c> shake</c><00:54:18.510><c> every</c><00:54:19.010><c> man</c><00:54:19.210><c> out</c><00:54:19.449><c> of</c><00:54:19.570><c> his</c><00:54:19.769><c> house</c>

00:54:20.030 --> 00:54:22.230
from<00:54:20.329><c> his</c><00:54:20.550><c> labor</c><00:54:20.829><c> that</c><00:54:21.110><c> performeth</c><00:54:21.510><c> not</c><00:54:21.710><c> this</c><00:54:21.929><c> promise,</c>

00:54:22.570 --> 00:54:24.469
even<00:54:22.889><c> thus</c><00:54:23.110><c> be</c><00:54:23.349><c> shaken</c><00:54:23.630><c> out</c><00:54:23.869><c> and</c><00:54:24.050><c> emptied.</c>

00:54:26.989 --> 00:54:28.010
Amen.

00:54:29.389 --> 00:54:33.349
He<00:54:29.710><c> stood</c><00:54:29.969><c> up</c><00:54:30.489><c> and</c><00:54:31.690><c> he</c><00:54:31.969><c> shook</c><00:54:32.110><c> his</c><00:54:32.309><c> skirts</c><00:54:32.590><c> of</c><00:54:32.750><c> his</c><00:54:32.969><c> garments</c>

00:54:33.349 --> 00:54:36.530

00:54:36.889 --> 00:54:38.949
And<00:54:37.230><c> he</c><00:54:37.329><c> says,</c><00:54:37.670><c> if</c><00:54:37.769><c> you</c><00:54:38.010><c> don't</c><00:54:38.230><c> keep</c><00:54:38.429><c> your</c><00:54:38.630><c> promise,</c>

00:54:39.230 --> 00:54:42.329
so<00:54:39.510><c> you</c><00:54:39.769><c> will</c><00:54:39.929><c> be</c><00:54:40.150><c> shaken</c><00:54:40.369><c> out</c><00:54:40.610><c> of</c><00:54:40.730><c> your</c><00:54:40.929><c> own</c><00:54:41.130><c> houses</c><00:54:41.610><c> and</c><00:54:42.030><c> homes</c>

00:54:42.329 --> 00:54:43.710
and<00:54:42.469><c> will</c><00:54:42.610><c> have</c><00:54:42.829><c> nothing.</c>

00:54:44.789 --> 00:54:47.690
And<00:54:45.110><c> he</c><00:54:45.269><c> asked</c><00:54:45.570><c> God</c><00:54:46.070><c> to</c><00:54:46.590><c> do</c><00:54:46.789><c> that</c><00:54:47.090><c> to</c><00:54:47.369><c> them.</c>

One<00:54:48.389><c> of</c><00:54:48.530><c> the</c><00:54:48.769><c> prayers.</c>

00:54:49.690 --> 00:54:51.889
And<00:54:49.690><c> the</c><00:54:49.849><c> people</c><00:54:50.210><c> said,</c><00:54:50.949><c> Amen.</c>

And<00:54:52.730><c> brothers</c><00:54:52.909><c> and</c><00:54:53.070><c> sisters,</c>

00:54:53.630 --> 00:54:56.590
I<00:54:53.710><c> wonder</c><00:54:54.030><c> whether</c><00:54:54.409><c> sometimes</c><00:54:55.050><c> we</c><00:54:55.610><c> understand</c>

00:55:00.369 --> 00:55:03.889

00:55:04.050 --> 00:55:06.030
It's<00:55:04.230><c> one</c><00:55:04.389><c> of</c><00:55:04.489><c> the</c><00:55:04.730><c> titles</c><00:55:04.969><c> of</c><00:55:05.170><c> the</c><00:55:05.230><c> Lord</c><00:55:05.429><c> Jesus</c><00:55:05.769><c> Christ</c>

00:55:07.010 --> 00:55:07.610
The<00:55:07.230><c> Amen.</c>

00:55:07.869 --> 00:55:09.329

00:55:09.730 --> 00:55:10.849
So<00:55:10.070><c> be</c><00:55:10.369><c> it</c><00:55:10.550><c> in</c><00:55:10.690><c> truth.</c>

00:55:10.929 --> 00:55:11.730
Not<00:55:11.150><c> the</c><00:55:11.429><c> end.</c>

00:55:11.829 --> 00:55:12.909

00:55:16.050 --> 00:55:18.590
And<00:55:16.610><c> we</c><00:55:16.829><c> should</c><00:55:17.110><c> not</c><00:55:17.409><c> give</c><00:55:17.710><c> lips</c><00:55:17.989><c> to</c><00:55:18.289><c> Amen,</c>

00:55:31.190 --> 00:55:33.230
A<00:55:31.489><c> reverential</c><00:55:32.070><c> approach</c><00:55:32.530><c> to</c><00:55:32.789><c> God.</c>
