00:16:11.220 --> 00:16:14.639
If<00:16:11.460><c> we</c><00:16:11.620><c> come</c><00:16:11.779><c> over</c><00:16:12.019><c> to</c><00:16:12.159><c> the</c><00:16:12.279><c> 50th</c><00:16:12.720><c> chapter</c><00:16:13.200><c> of</c><00:16:13.500><c> Isaiah,</c>

And<00:16:40.399><c> we</c><00:16:40.559><c> might</c><00:16:40.779><c> sometimes</c><00:16:41.320><c> think</c><00:16:41.600><c> that</c><00:16:41.899><c> time</c><00:16:42.200><c> is</c><00:16:42.440><c> not</c><00:16:42.679><c> important</c><00:16:43.080><c> to</c><00:16:43.279><c> God.</c>

00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:47.720
We<00:16:45.580><c> might</c><00:16:45.799><c> say,</c><00:16:46.159><c> well,</c><00:16:46.460><c> He</c><00:16:46.759><c> inhabits</c><00:16:47.200><c> eternity.</c>

00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:05.759
And<00:21:03.500><c> three</c><00:21:03.660><c> of</c><00:21:03.799><c> them</c><00:21:03.920><c> have</c><00:21:04.220><c> already</c><00:21:04.640><c> hatched</c><00:21:05.039><c> and</c><00:21:05.160><c> one</c><00:21:05.339><c> of</c><00:21:05.440><c> them</c><00:21:05.559><c> is</c>

00:40:30.239 --> 00:40:34.360
Messiah<00:40:30.380><c> is</c><00:40:30.719><c> here</c><00:40:30.960><c> saying</c><00:40:31.440><c> that</c><00:40:32.239><c> I</c><00:40:32.380><c> have</c><00:40:32.699><c> so</c><00:40:33.119><c> set</c><00:40:33.340><c> my</c><00:40:33.800><c> face</c>

00:40:38.360 --> 00:40:39.739
Why<00:40:38.619><c> not?</c>

00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:42.940
Because<00:40:40.360><c> he</c><00:40:40.559><c> set</c><00:40:40.800><c> Yahweh</c><00:40:41.340><c> always</c><00:40:41.659><c> at</c><00:40:41.800><c> his</c><00:40:41.980><c> right</c><00:40:42.340><c> hand</c>

00:40:46.039 --> 00:40:49.920

00:40:50.059 --> 00:40:51.079
Why?

00:40:52.079 --> 00:40:53.599
Because,<00:40:52.780><c> brethren</c><00:40:52.980><c> and</c><00:40:53.139><c> sisters,</c>
