He<00:11:15.639><c> said,</c><00:11:15.759><c> I</c><00:11:15.840><c> want</c><00:11:15.980><c> you</c><00:11:16.100><c> to</c><00:11:16.200><c> make</c><00:11:16.340><c> a</c><00:11:16.500><c> decision</c><00:11:16.700><c> about</c><00:11:16.879><c> this</c><00:11:17.139><c> case.</c>

00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:19.019
But<00:11:17.799><c> he</c><00:11:17.940><c> didn't</c><00:11:18.120><c> want</c><00:11:18.240><c> him</c><00:11:18.379><c> to</c><00:11:18.500><c> make</c><00:11:18.620><c> a</c><00:11:18.779><c> decision.</c>

00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:20.000
He<00:11:19.139><c> wanted</c><00:11:19.320><c> to</c><00:11:19.480><c> make</c><00:11:19.600><c> a</c><00:11:19.759><c> judgment.</c>

00:11:20.100 --> 00:11:21.820
He<00:11:20.220><c> didn't</c><00:11:20.519><c> ask</c><00:11:20.840><c> him</c><00:11:20.980><c> to</c><00:11:21.139><c> consider</c><00:11:21.399><c> the</c><00:11:21.659><c> case.</c>

00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:25.139
He<00:11:21.980><c> didn't</c><00:11:22.220><c> say,</c><00:11:23.000><c> Lord,</c><00:11:23.220><c> come</c><00:11:23.480><c> along</c><00:11:23.700><c> and</c><00:11:24.059><c> see</c><00:11:24.399><c> what</c><00:11:24.679><c> the</c><00:11:24.919><c> case</c>

is<00:11:25.460><c> or</c><00:11:25.960><c> who's</c><00:11:26.360><c> right</c><00:11:26.600><c> and</c><00:11:26.840><c> wrong.</c>

00:11:27.059 --> 00:11:27.759
He<00:11:27.179><c> didn't</c><00:11:27.379><c> say</c><00:11:27.600><c> that.</c>

00:11:27.899 --> 00:11:31.720
He<00:11:27.899><c> said,</c><00:11:28.320><c> You</c><00:11:28.740><c> tell</c><00:11:29.100><c> him</c><00:11:29.440><c> to</c><00:11:29.779><c> divide</c><00:11:30.080><c> the</c><00:11:30.340><c> inheritance</c><00:11:30.639><c> with</c><00:11:30.940><c> me.</c>

00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:35.840
Which<00:11:32.820><c> is</c><00:11:33.120><c> absolutely</c><00:11:33.580><c> outrageous,</c><00:11:34.700><c> brethren</c><00:11:34.820><c> and</c><00:11:35.039><c> sisters.</c>

00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:37.779
Totally<00:11:36.799><c> outrageous.</c>

00:11:38.700 --> 00:11:41.700
It<00:11:38.759><c> wasn't</c><00:11:39.080><c> even</c><00:11:39.379><c> asking</c><00:11:39.820><c> the</c><00:11:39.980><c> Lord</c><00:11:40.139><c> to</c><00:11:40.299><c> make</c><00:11:40.460><c> a</c><00:11:40.620><c> fair</c><00:11:40.779><c> judgment.</c>

00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:44.580
It<00:11:42.399><c> was</c><00:11:42.559><c> just</c><00:11:42.840><c> telling</c><00:11:43.000><c> him</c><00:11:43.200><c> to</c><00:11:43.440><c> tell</c><00:11:43.639><c> somebody</c><00:11:44.000><c> else</c><00:11:44.259><c> to</c><00:11:44.440><c> give</c>

00:11:44.580 --> 00:11:45.299
him<00:11:44.799><c> something</c>

00:11:45.779 --> 00:11:49.100
without<00:11:46.259><c> any</c><00:11:46.620><c> question</c><00:11:46.899><c> of</c><00:11:47.059><c> who's</c><00:11:47.379><c> right</c><00:11:47.559><c> and</c><00:11:48.139><c> wrong.</c>

00:11:50.059 --> 00:11:55.779
Look,<00:11:50.340><c> even</c><00:11:50.740><c> to</c><00:11:51.600><c> a</c><00:11:51.799><c> legalist,</c><00:11:52.600><c> it</c><00:11:52.600><c> would</c><00:11:53.120><c> be</c><00:11:54.139><c> totally</c><00:11:54.539><c> unacceptable.</c>

00:11:55.879 --> 00:11:57.820
I<00:11:55.960><c> think</c><00:11:56.059><c> even</c><00:11:56.320><c> the</c><00:11:56.559><c> worst</c><00:11:56.799><c> of</c><00:11:56.919><c> them</c><00:11:57.000><c> would</c><00:11:57.139><c> say,</c><00:11:57.480><c> well,</c><00:11:57.620><c> let's</c>

00:11:57.820 --> 00:11:59.980

00:11:59.980 --> 00:12:02.360
or<00:12:00.279><c> what</c><00:12:00.580><c> your</c><00:12:00.799><c> brother's</c><00:12:01.139><c> got</c><00:12:01.240><c> to</c><00:12:01.500><c> say.</c>

00:12:02.500 --> 00:12:04.559
But<00:12:02.700><c> this</c><00:12:02.919><c> fellow</c><00:12:03.240><c> could</c><00:12:03.620><c> not</c><00:12:03.820><c> care</c><00:12:04.019><c> less</c><00:12:04.279><c> about</c><00:12:04.500><c> it.</c>

00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:08.179
He<00:12:04.679><c> was</c><00:12:04.860><c> absolutely</c><00:12:05.419><c> convinced</c><00:12:06.259><c> that</c><00:12:06.899><c> right</c><00:12:07.059><c> was</c><00:12:07.259><c> on</c><00:12:07.440><c> his</c><00:12:07.740><c> side</c>

00:12:08.179 --> 00:12:10.600
and<00:12:08.360><c> that</c><00:12:08.519><c> the</c><00:12:08.600><c> Lord</c><00:12:08.759><c> had</c><00:12:08.960><c> no</c><00:12:09.220><c> option</c><00:12:09.519><c> but</c><00:12:09.720><c> to</c><00:12:09.840><c> tell</c><00:12:09.980><c> his</c><00:12:10.159><c> brother</c><00:12:10.379><c> to</c>

00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:11.740

00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:14.179
That's<00:12:12.059><c> how</c><00:12:12.279><c> he</c><00:12:12.539><c> thought,</c><00:12:13.019><c> brethren</c><00:12:13.179><c> and</c><00:12:13.480><c> sisters.</c>

00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:18.279
And<00:12:14.340><c> he</c><00:12:14.399><c> was</c><00:12:14.620><c> exerting</c><00:12:15.159><c> pressure</c><00:12:15.659><c> on</c><00:12:15.879><c> the</c><00:12:16.039><c> Lord</c><00:12:16.259><c> to</c><00:12:16.679><c> meet</c><00:12:16.840><c> his</c><00:12:17.179><c> demands.</c>

00:12:18.740 --> 00:12:23.340
What<00:12:19.019><c> could</c><00:12:19.200><c> it</c><00:12:19.539><c> be</c><00:12:20.340><c> that</c><00:12:21.299><c> would</c><00:12:21.460><c> ever</c><00:12:21.840><c> allow</c><00:12:22.379><c> a</c><00:12:22.539><c> man</c><00:12:22.759><c> like</c><00:12:23.019><c> that</c><00:12:23.179><c> to</c>

What<00:23:25.220><c> it'll</c><00:23:25.519><c> look</c><00:23:25.680><c> like,</c><00:23:25.940><c> what</c><00:23:26.220><c> colour</c><00:23:26.420><c> you</c><00:23:26.640><c> want,</c>

00:23:27.140 --> 00:23:28.259

00:23:32.380 --> 00:23:34.099
And<00:23:32.480><c> you</c><00:23:32.539><c> go</c><00:23:32.740><c> over</c><00:23:32.900><c> it</c><00:23:33.019><c> with</c><00:23:33.160><c> a</c><00:23:33.380><c> fine</c><00:23:33.700><c> tooth</c><00:23:34.000><c> comb</c>

00:23:36.740 --> 00:23:41.220
Oh,<00:23:37.079><c> if</c><00:23:37.180><c> only</c><00:23:37.759><c> David</c><00:23:38.200><c> said</c><00:23:38.500><c> my</c><00:23:38.839><c> heart</c><00:23:39.099><c> was</c><00:23:39.279><c> to</c><00:23:39.400><c> the</c><00:23:39.539><c> Bible</c><00:23:39.880><c> like</c><00:23:40.220><c> that.</c>

00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:42.960
And<00:23:41.960><c> not</c><00:23:42.180><c> to</c><00:23:42.380><c> covetousness.</c>

00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:44.559
That's<00:23:43.559><c> the</c><00:23:43.700><c> strength</c><00:23:43.940><c> of</c><00:23:44.119><c> it.</c>

00:23:45.059 --> 00:23:47.359
Isn't<00:23:45.220><c> that</c><00:23:45.500><c> powerful</c><00:23:45.839><c> when</c><00:23:45.980><c> you</c><00:23:46.059><c> think</c><00:23:46.240><c> about</c><00:23:46.519><c> that?</c>

00:23:47.640 --> 00:23:50.299
You<00:23:47.640><c> know,</c><00:23:48.819><c> Timothy,</c><00:23:49.119><c> you</c><00:23:49.119><c> know,</c><00:23:49.539><c> Paul</c><00:23:49.779><c> wrote</c><00:23:50.039><c> to</c><00:23:50.200><c> him</c>

00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:56.180
is<00:23:53.059><c> the</c><00:23:53.259><c> root</c><00:23:53.380><c> of</c><00:23:53.599><c> all</c><00:23:53.740><c> evil,</c><00:23:53.960><c> which</c><00:23:54.160><c> many</c><00:23:54.440><c> have</c><00:23:55.299><c> coveted</c><00:23:55.779><c> after.</c>

00:23:56.440 --> 00:23:57.740

00:23:57.900 --> 00:24:00.319
They've<00:23:58.380><c> shot</c><00:23:58.559><c> themselves</c><00:23:59.059><c> through</c><00:23:59.339><c> with</c><00:23:59.559><c> many</c><00:23:59.880><c> sorrows,</c>

00:24:05.259 --> 00:24:06.380
Painful<00:24:05.819><c> experiences!</c>

00:24:06.779 --> 00:24:08.960
Because<00:24:06.980><c> they'd</c><00:24:07.480><c> coveted</c><00:24:07.799><c> after</c><00:24:08.079><c> money.</c>

00:24:09.660 --> 00:24:11.920
And<00:24:09.819><c> he</c><00:24:09.920><c> wrote</c><00:24:10.099><c> to</c><00:24:10.299><c> the</c><00:24:10.480><c> Colossians</c><00:24:10.880><c> and</c><00:24:11.119><c> said,</c>

00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:13.519
it's<00:24:12.200><c> idolatry.</c>

00:24:14.779 --> 00:24:16.220
It's<00:24:14.940><c> pretty</c><00:24:15.279><c> strong,</c><00:24:15.640><c> isn't</c><00:24:15.779><c> it?</c>

00:24:16.220 --> 00:24:20.680
The<00:24:16.480><c> covetousness</c><00:24:17.460><c> which</c><00:24:17.900><c> is</c><00:24:18.740><c> idolatry.</c>

00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:23.480
Now,<00:24:21.440><c> a</c><00:24:21.579><c> magnificent</c><00:24:22.180><c> lesson</c><00:24:22.500><c> was</c><00:24:22.720><c> coming</c><00:24:22.900><c> for</c><00:24:23.059><c> this</c><00:24:23.299><c> fellow.</c>

00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:25.079
It<00:24:23.660><c> didn't</c><00:24:23.839><c> come</c><00:24:24.059><c> immediately.</c>

00:24:25.859 --> 00:24:28.019
It<00:24:26.059><c> came</c><00:24:26.400><c> as</c><00:24:26.559><c> the</c><00:24:26.779><c> talk</c><00:24:26.940><c> proceeded.</c>

00:24:28.980 --> 00:24:31.380
Oh,<00:24:29.279><c> but</c><00:24:29.420><c> how</c><00:24:29.579><c> it</c><00:24:29.880><c> was</c><00:24:29.880><c> beautifully</c><00:24:30.279><c> put,</c><00:24:30.740><c> brethren</c><00:24:30.859><c> and</c><00:24:31.079><c> sisters.</c>

00:24:31.819 --> 00:24:36.960
You<00:24:31.920><c> know,</c><00:24:32.140><c> the</c><00:24:32.259><c> Lord</c><00:24:32.460><c> was</c><00:24:32.799><c> ever</c><00:24:33.099><c> a</c><00:24:33.359><c> man</c><00:24:33.759><c> to</c><00:24:35.839><c> hide</c><00:24:36.359><c> His</c><00:24:36.680><c> teaching,</c>

00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:40.819

00:24:41.220 --> 00:24:43.079
listening<00:24:41.740><c> carefully</c><00:24:42.240><c> to</c><00:24:42.299><c> what</c><00:24:42.480><c> He</c><00:24:42.720><c> said.</c>

00:24:43.579 --> 00:24:46.440
He<00:24:44.019><c> could</c><00:24:44.220><c> have</c><00:24:44.500><c> said</c><00:24:44.720><c> quite</c><00:24:45.240><c> plainly</c><00:24:45.700><c> the</c><00:24:45.839><c> lesson</c><00:24:46.019><c> He's</c><00:24:46.220><c> now</c>

00:24:46.440 --> 00:24:47.259
going<00:24:46.599><c> to</c><00:24:46.880><c> teach,</c>

00:24:47.660 --> 00:24:49.619
but<00:24:47.980><c> He</c><00:24:48.099><c> didn't</c><00:24:48.259><c> do</c><00:24:48.420><c> it</c><00:24:48.539><c> that</c><00:24:48.720><c> way.</c>

00:24:49.700 --> 00:24:53.259
He<00:24:49.900><c> gave</c><00:24:50.119><c> a</c><00:24:50.380><c> lengthy</c><00:24:50.720><c> dissertation</c><00:24:51.339><c> in</c><00:24:51.599><c> which</c><00:24:52.039><c> clues</c><00:24:52.480><c> were</c><00:24:52.759><c> given</c>

00:24:53.259 --> 00:24:55.319
as<00:24:53.839><c> to</c><00:24:53.960><c> the</c><00:24:54.200><c> power</c><00:24:54.480><c> of</c><00:24:54.599><c> what</c><00:24:54.740><c> He</c><00:24:54.859><c> was</c><00:24:55.099><c> saying.</c>

00:24:55.619 --> 00:24:57.880
And<00:24:55.720><c> it</c><00:24:55.859><c> was</c><00:24:55.859><c> only</c><00:24:56.099><c> people</c><00:24:56.400><c> in</c><00:24:56.539><c> that</c><00:24:56.740><c> crowd</c><00:24:57.039><c> who</c><00:24:57.180><c> would</c><00:24:57.420><c> listen</c><00:24:57.660><c> in</c>

00:24:57.880 --> 00:25:00.160
and<00:24:57.960><c> there'd</c><00:24:58.200><c> be</c><00:24:58.279><c> very</c><00:24:58.619><c> few</c><00:24:58.779><c> of</c><00:24:58.960><c> them</c><00:24:59.240><c> that</c><00:24:59.619><c> would</c><00:24:59.799><c> pick</c><00:24:59.960><c> up</c>

00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:00.599
the<00:25:00.400><c> echoes</c>

00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:02.119
of<00:25:00.740><c> what</c><00:25:00.859><c> He</c><00:25:01.000><c> was</c><00:25:01.279><c> saying.</c>

00:25:02.680 --> 00:25:04.700
Now,<00:25:02.759><c> He</c><00:25:02.880><c> told</c><00:25:03.119><c> that</c><00:25:03.380><c> man</c><00:25:03.539><c> in</c><00:25:03.700><c> verse</c><00:25:03.920><c> 15</c><00:25:04.319><c> this.</c>

00:25:04.900 --> 00:25:06.279
You<00:25:05.119><c> listen.</c>

00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:08.119
He<00:25:07.880><c> says,</c>

00:25:08.380 --> 00:25:13.859
Beware<00:25:08.619><c> of</c><00:25:08.920><c> covetousness</c><00:25:09.960><c> for</c><00:25:11.180><c> a</c><00:25:11.339><c> man's</c><00:25:11.700><c> life</c>

00:25:13.859 --> 00:25:19.519
consisteth<00:25:14.799><c> not</c><00:25:15.339><c> in</c><00:25:15.859><c> the</c><00:25:16.099><c> abundance</c><00:25:16.420><c> of</c><00:25:16.740><c> things</c><00:25:17.140><c> which</c><00:25:17.480><c> he</c><00:25:17.799><c> possesses.</c>

00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:22.420
That's<00:25:20.039><c> plain</c><00:25:20.240><c> enough,</c><00:25:20.680><c> brethren</c><00:25:20.920><c> and</c><00:25:21.180><c> sisters,</c><00:25:21.380><c> isn't</c><00:25:21.579><c> it?</c>

00:25:22.980 --> 00:25:27.660
But<00:25:23.279><c> sometimes</c><00:25:23.680><c> a</c><00:25:23.880><c> thing</c><00:25:24.079><c> said</c><00:25:24.400><c> plainly</c><00:25:25.660><c> is</c><00:25:26.099><c> lost</c><00:25:26.420><c> on</c><00:25:26.640><c> people.</c>

00:25:27.960 --> 00:25:30.539
It's<00:25:28.460><c> a</c><00:25:28.500><c> funny</c><00:25:28.799><c> trait</c><00:25:29.119><c> of</c><00:25:29.339><c> human</c><00:25:29.539><c> nature.</c>

00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:34.039
But<00:25:31.339><c> a</c><00:25:31.519><c> moral</c><00:25:31.740><c> lesson</c><00:25:32.519><c> stated</c><00:25:33.099><c> plainly</c><00:25:33.640><c> and</c><00:25:33.839><c> simply,</c>

00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:36.660
sometimes<00:25:34.519><c> is</c><00:25:34.839><c> lost</c><00:25:35.180><c> on</c><00:25:35.440><c> human</c><00:25:35.640><c> nature.</c>

00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:39.960
But<00:25:37.859><c> if</c><00:25:38.019><c> we</c><00:25:38.160><c> can</c><00:25:38.339><c> bring</c><00:25:38.539><c> that</c><00:25:38.779><c> out</c><00:25:38.900><c> in</c><00:25:39.059><c> another</c><00:25:39.259><c> way</c>

00:25:39.960 --> 00:25:42.839
so<00:25:40.539><c> that</c><00:25:40.680><c> people</c><00:25:40.940><c> that</c><00:25:41.160><c> suddenly</c><00:25:41.519><c> dawns</c><00:25:42.019><c> on</c><00:25:42.079><c> the</c><00:25:42.299><c> enormity</c><00:25:42.759><c> of</c>

00:25:42.839 --> 00:25:43.819
what<00:25:43.000><c> has</c><00:25:43.200><c> been</c><00:25:43.420><c> said,</c>

00:25:44.119 --> 00:25:47.240
the<00:25:44.259><c> lesson</c><00:25:44.519><c> comes</c><00:25:44.859><c> home</c><00:25:45.079><c> with</c><00:25:45.400><c> sledgehammer</c><00:25:45.960><c> force.</c>

00:31:19.960 --> 00:31:21.079

End<00:31:34.559><c> result?</c>

00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:36.519
A<00:31:35.799><c> disaster.</c>

A<00:31:36.819><c> pile</c><00:31:37.059><c> of</c><00:31:37.359><c> stones.</c>

00:31:39.079 --> 00:31:41.240
The<00:31:39.279><c> family</c><00:31:39.519><c> gone</c><00:31:39.799><c> to</c><00:31:40.000><c> wreck</c><00:31:40.160><c> and</c><00:31:40.380><c> ruin.</c>

00:31:48.579 --> 00:31:49.559
Covetousness.

Gehazi,<00:31:50.579><c> brethren</c><00:31:50.880><c> and</c><00:31:51.119><c> sisters.</c>

00:31:51.480 --> 00:31:56.359
Think<00:31:51.640><c> of</c><00:31:51.799><c> Gehazi</c><00:31:52.539><c> when</c><00:31:53.940><c> Elisha</c><00:31:54.400><c> the</c><00:31:54.619><c> prophet</c><00:31:54.859><c> healed</c><00:31:55.380><c> the</c><00:31:55.859><c> Assyrian</c>

00:32:01.559 --> 00:32:04.019
God's<00:32:01.960><c> gifts</c><00:32:02.180><c> are</c><00:32:02.400><c> not</c><00:32:02.539><c> to</c><00:32:02.700><c> be</c><00:32:02.940><c> bought,</c><00:32:03.319><c> brethren</c><00:32:03.440><c> and</c><00:32:03.700><c> sisters.</c>

00:32:04.500 --> 00:32:07.119
There<00:32:04.559><c> were</c><00:32:04.799><c> spiritual</c><00:32:05.220><c> lessons</c><00:32:05.559><c> to</c><00:32:05.740><c> be</c><00:32:05.940><c> taught</c><00:32:06.119><c> here.</c>

00:32:11.420 --> 00:32:14.380

00:32:16.420 --> 00:32:18.380
It's<00:32:16.660><c> one</c><00:32:16.880><c> thing</c><00:32:17.039><c> for</c><00:32:17.200><c> Gehazi</c><00:32:17.579><c> to</c><00:32:17.759><c> go</c><00:32:17.839><c> off</c><00:32:17.960><c> and</c><00:32:18.079><c> do</c><00:32:18.240><c> that.</c>

Almost<00:38:49.000><c> an</c><00:38:49.300><c> incomprehensible</c><00:38:50.059><c> saying</c><00:38:50.420><c> to</c><00:38:50.619><c> many</c><00:38:50.820><c> people,</c>

00:39:10.059 --> 00:39:12.079

00:39:12.179 --> 00:39:15.940
Oh,<00:39:12.460><c> we</c><00:39:12.619><c> say</c><00:39:12.840><c> we</c><00:39:13.039><c> do,</c><00:39:14.159><c> but</c><00:39:14.280><c> it's</c><00:39:14.480><c> a</c><00:39:14.619><c> nice</c><00:39:14.900><c> feeling</c><00:39:15.260><c> to</c><00:39:15.519><c> think</c>

00:39:15.940 --> 00:39:18.559
we've<00:39:16.659><c> got</c><00:39:16.760><c> something</c><00:39:17.039><c> behind</c><00:39:17.500><c> us,</c><00:39:17.820><c> you</c><00:39:17.820><c> know,</c><00:39:18.320><c> back.</c>

It's<00:39:19.139><c> a</c><00:39:19.300><c> nice</c><00:39:19.599><c> feeling.</c>

00:39:19.980 --> 00:39:21.400
It's<00:39:20.079><c> a</c><00:39:20.179><c> sort</c><00:39:20.260><c> of</c><00:39:20.519><c> a</c><00:39:20.659><c> comfortable</c><00:39:21.059><c> feeling.</c>

00:39:21.780 --> 00:39:23.739
Deny<00:39:22.059><c> it</c><00:39:22.199><c> if</c><00:39:22.199><c> you</c><00:39:22.380><c> like,</c><00:39:22.519><c> but</c><00:39:22.739><c> it's</c><00:39:22.920><c> true.</c>

00:39:24.000 --> 00:39:26.960
With<00:39:24.360><c> our</c><00:39:24.619><c> mouths</c><00:39:24.920><c> we</c><00:39:25.179><c> express</c><00:39:25.599><c> platitudes,</c><00:39:26.099><c> but</c><00:39:26.239><c> in</c><00:39:26.400><c> our</c><00:39:26.639><c> heart</c><00:39:26.800><c> we</c>

00:39:28.280 --> 00:39:32.199
I'm<00:39:28.460><c> okay,</c><00:39:29.699><c> I'm</c><00:39:30.139><c> set</c><00:39:30.400><c> up,</c><00:39:31.420><c> I'm</c><00:39:31.800><c> all</c><00:39:31.960><c> right.</c>

00:39:32.260 --> 00:39:33.360
Are<00:39:32.480><c> we?</c>

00:39:33.739 --> 00:39:36.559
Well,<00:39:34.199><c> you</c><00:39:34.340><c> come</c><00:39:34.460><c> back</c><00:39:34.599><c> to</c><00:39:34.699><c> this</c><00:39:34.940><c> parable,</c><00:39:35.460><c> brothers</c><00:39:35.579><c> and</c><00:39:35.780><c> sisters.</c>

00:39:36.619 --> 00:39:38.400
It's<00:39:36.820><c> a</c><00:39:36.880><c> powerful</c><00:39:37.320><c> one,</c><00:39:37.619><c> really.</c>

00:39:39.699 --> 00:39:41.179
You<00:39:39.820><c> listen</c><00:39:40.000><c> to</c><00:39:40.079><c> some</c><00:39:40.219><c> of</c><00:39:40.340><c> these</c><00:39:40.539><c> things</c><00:39:40.699><c> that</c><00:39:40.860><c> are</c><00:39:40.920><c> said</c><00:39:41.059><c> in</c>

00:39:41.179 --> 00:39:42.300
this<00:39:41.420><c> parable.</c>

00:39:42.579 --> 00:39:46.360
Now,<00:39:42.760><c> here</c><00:39:42.880><c> was</c><00:39:43.039><c> the</c><00:39:43.300><c> problem</c><00:39:43.420><c> with</c><00:39:43.599><c> this</c><00:39:44.820><c> rich</c><00:39:45.340><c> fool.</c>

00:39:47.119 --> 00:39:51.619
He<00:39:47.260><c> says,</c><00:39:49.119><c> he</c><00:39:49.280><c> thought</c><00:39:49.820><c> within</c><00:39:50.360><c> himself.</c>

00:39:52.840 --> 00:39:54.699
You<00:39:53.019><c> know</c><00:39:53.099><c> what</c><00:39:53.119><c> we'd</c><00:39:53.460><c> call</c><00:39:53.619><c> that?</c>

00:39:55.599 --> 00:39:57.840
What<00:39:55.900><c> this</c><00:39:56.159><c> man</c><00:39:56.440><c> thought</c><00:39:56.699><c> in</c><00:39:56.860><c> himself,</c><00:39:57.199><c> brothers</c><00:39:57.519><c> and</c><00:39:57.719><c> sisters,</c>

00:39:57.860 --> 00:40:00.260
we've<00:39:58.420><c> got</c><00:39:58.559><c> a</c><00:39:58.800><c> colloquial</c><00:39:59.239><c> name</c><00:39:59.539><c> for</c><00:39:59.739><c> that.</c>

00:40:00.260 --> 00:40:03.199
We<00:40:00.760><c> call</c><00:40:01.119><c> it</c><00:40:01.780><c> daydreaming.</c>

00:40:04.780 --> 00:40:06.860
He<00:40:04.900><c> was</c><00:40:05.059><c> a</c><00:40:05.239><c> daydreamer.</c>

00:40:06.880 --> 00:40:09.780
He<00:40:06.980><c> leant</c><00:40:07.199><c> back</c><00:40:07.480><c> in</c><00:40:07.599><c> his</c><00:40:08.000><c> armchair</c><00:40:08.440><c> and</c><00:40:09.019><c> thought</c><00:40:09.159><c> to</c><00:40:09.340><c> himself</c>

00:40:09.780 --> 00:40:11.760
of<00:40:10.059><c> where</c><00:40:10.179><c> he</c><00:40:10.340><c> was</c><00:40:10.599><c> in</c><00:40:10.880><c> life.</c>

00:40:12.360 --> 00:40:14.320
His<00:40:12.619><c> crops</c><00:40:12.820><c> were</c><00:40:13.000><c> going</c><00:40:13.199><c> well.</c>

00:40:14.539 --> 00:40:16.900
The<00:40:14.760><c> shekels</c><00:40:15.099><c> were</c><00:40:15.420><c> rolling</c><00:40:15.760><c> in.</c>

00:40:17.139 --> 00:40:18.400
And<00:40:17.280><c> he</c><00:40:17.300><c> was</c><00:40:17.519><c> daydreaming</c><00:40:18.179><c> about</c><00:40:18.400><c> it.</c>

00:40:18.420 --> 00:40:20.599
Have<00:40:18.559><c> you</c><00:40:18.659><c> ever</c><00:40:18.940><c> daydreamed</c><00:40:19.460><c> about</c><00:40:19.719><c> riches?</c>

00:40:21.800 --> 00:40:22.980
You've<00:40:22.039><c> never?</c>

00:40:23.420 --> 00:40:24.480
Incredible.

00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:28.360
What<00:40:25.260><c> you</c><00:40:25.440><c> would</c><00:40:25.659><c> do</c><00:40:25.940><c> if</c><00:40:26.139><c> you</c><00:40:26.300><c> had</c><00:40:26.480><c> this</c><00:40:27.139><c> or</c><00:40:27.739><c> had</c><00:40:28.000><c> that,</c>

00:40:28.360 --> 00:40:31.800

00:40:31.800 --> 00:40:33.380
on<00:40:32.139><c> overseas</c><00:40:32.659><c> trips</c><00:40:33.019><c> or</c><00:40:33.159><c> something</c>

00:40:33.380 --> 00:40:36.139
and<00:40:33.559><c> thought,</c><00:40:34.119><c> wished</c><00:40:34.360><c> I</c><00:40:34.599><c> could</c><00:40:34.719><c> do</c><00:40:34.920><c> that,</c><00:40:35.179><c> if</c><00:40:35.400><c> I</c><00:40:35.699><c> had</c><00:40:35.920><c> this,</c>

00:40:36.360 --> 00:40:38.880
and<00:40:36.500><c> then</c><00:40:36.719><c> suddenly</c><00:40:37.199><c> daydream</c><00:40:37.820><c> about</c><00:40:38.099><c> it.</c>

00:40:38.980 --> 00:40:41.119
Well,<00:40:39.139><c> this</c><00:40:39.320><c> chap</c><00:40:39.440><c> was</c><00:40:39.619><c> a</c><00:40:39.800><c> daydreamer.</c>

00:40:41.239 --> 00:40:43.480
He<00:40:41.460><c> thought</c><00:40:41.880><c> within</c><00:40:42.219><c> himself.</c>

00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:48.340
And<00:40:44.980><c> he</c><00:40:45.019><c> was</c><00:40:45.260><c> a</c><00:40:45.420><c> supreme</c><00:40:46.119><c> egotist,</c><00:40:47.000><c> brethren</c><00:40:47.179><c> and</c><00:40:47.420><c> sisters.</c>

00:40:49.019 --> 00:40:53.079
As<00:40:49.219><c> he</c><00:40:49.500><c> thought</c><00:40:49.699><c> within</c><00:40:49.980><c> himself,</c><00:40:50.880><c> there</c><00:40:51.000><c> was</c><00:40:51.159><c> only</c><00:40:51.440><c> one</c><00:40:52.019><c> dominant</c><00:40:52.539><c> character</c><00:40:52.960><c> in</c>

his<00:40:53.300><c> life,</c><00:40:53.559><c> and</c><00:40:53.659><c> that</c><00:40:53.739><c> was</c><00:40:53.900><c> himself.</c>

00:40:57.139 --> 00:41:01.960
He<00:40:57.900><c> thought</c><00:40:58.199><c> within</c><00:40:58.460><c> himself,</c><00:40:58.940><c> saying,</c><00:40:59.360><c> What</c><00:40:59.679><c> shall</c><00:41:00.159><c> I</c><00:41:00.699><c> do?</c>

00:41:02.960 --> 00:41:07.840
Because<00:41:03.340><c> I</c><00:41:03.920><c> have</c><00:41:04.199><c> no</c><00:41:04.559><c> room</c><00:41:04.780><c> where</c><00:41:05.019><c> to</c><00:41:05.260><c> bestow</c><00:41:06.159><c> my</c><00:41:06.760><c> fruits.</c>

00:50:09.920 --> 00:50:12.800
There's<00:50:09.980><c> one</c><00:50:10.119><c> answer</c><00:50:10.380><c> to</c><00:50:10.559><c> that,</c><00:50:11.300><c> and</c><00:50:11.420><c> that's</c><00:50:11.639><c> a</c><00:50:11.739><c> responsible</c><00:50:12.340><c> creator.</c>

00:50:13.059 --> 00:50:14.860
That's<00:50:13.360><c> why</c><00:50:13.460><c> when</c><00:50:13.639><c> Elijah</c><00:50:14.039><c> put</c><00:50:14.260><c> out</c><00:50:14.380><c> his</c><00:50:14.679><c> hand</c>

00:50:28.380 --> 00:50:30.780
He<00:50:28.739><c> didn't</c><00:50:28.960><c> have</c><00:50:29.099><c> much</c><00:50:29.340><c> in</c><00:50:29.579><c> life</c><00:50:29.739><c> either,</c>

Foolish.
