00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:19.900
And<00:01:16.640><c> we</c><00:01:16.799><c> saw</c><00:01:16.980><c> in</c><00:01:17.099><c> the</c><00:01:17.219><c> husband</c><00:01:17.560><c> wife</c><00:01:18.000><c> relationships</c><00:01:18.760><c> that</c><00:01:18.980><c> there</c><00:01:19.140><c> was</c>

00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:26.799

00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.219
There<00:01:27.000><c> are</c><00:01:27.280><c> responsibilities</c><00:01:27.959><c> and</c><00:01:28.260><c> duties</c><00:01:28.519><c> on</c><00:01:28.840><c> both</c><00:01:29.680><c> parents</c>

00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:37.040
And<00:01:34.620><c> always</c><00:01:34.879><c> in</c><00:01:35.079><c> the</c><00:01:35.200><c> work</c><00:01:35.359><c> of</c><00:01:35.599><c> God</c><00:01:35.760><c> there</c><00:01:35.920><c> is</c><00:01:36.159><c> mutual</c><00:01:36.599><c> submission.</c>

00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:41.219
There<00:01:37.200><c> is</c><00:01:37.439><c> mutual</c><00:01:37.840><c> responsibility</c><00:01:38.760><c> rather</c><00:01:39.959><c> than</c><00:01:40.579><c> the</c><00:01:40.959><c> taking</c>

00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:45.920

their<00:18:13.940><c> parents.</c>

00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:17.160
And<00:18:15.519><c> the</c><00:18:15.640><c> Lord</c><00:18:15.779><c> quoted</c><00:18:16.099><c> this,</c><00:18:16.339><c> he</c><00:18:16.500><c> said,</c>

00:23:55.359 --> 00:23:58.359
When<00:23:55.559><c> Paul</c><00:23:55.880><c> quotes</c><00:23:56.140><c> it</c><00:23:56.319><c> of</c><00:23:56.460><c> course</c><00:23:56.619><c> he's</c><00:23:56.819><c> now</c><00:23:57.019><c> dealing</c><00:23:57.220><c> outside</c><00:23:57.880><c> of</c><00:23:58.160><c> Israel.</c>

00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:01.240
He's<00:23:58.660><c> dealing</c><00:23:58.859><c> with</c><00:23:59.660><c> the</c><00:23:59.900><c> Ecclesia</c><00:24:00.240><c> in</c><00:24:00.500><c> Gentile</c><00:24:00.980><c> lands.</c>

00:24:01.299 --> 00:24:03.460
And<00:24:01.440><c> so</c><00:24:01.559><c> he</c><00:24:01.819><c> interprets</c><00:24:02.259><c> it</c><00:24:02.400><c> and</c><00:24:02.480><c> he</c><00:24:02.660><c> says</c><00:24:02.759><c> that</c><00:24:02.940><c> they</c><00:24:03.039><c> may</c><00:24:03.279><c> as</c>

00:24:03.460 --> 00:24:05.940

00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:11.519
So<00:24:07.299><c> he</c><00:24:07.400><c> now</c><00:24:07.559><c> puts</c><00:24:07.740><c> it</c><00:24:07.900><c> not</c><00:24:08.059><c> only</c><00:24:08.339><c> in</c><00:24:09.180><c> the</c><00:24:09.500><c> context</c><00:24:09.900><c> of</c><00:24:10.160><c> preserving</c><00:24:10.720><c> the</c><00:24:11.059><c> heritage</c><00:24:11.339><c> of</c>

00:24:11.519 --> 00:24:12.599
the<00:24:11.740><c> truth.</c>

00:24:12.680 --> 00:24:14.460
But<00:24:12.779><c> he</c><00:24:12.920><c> puts</c><00:24:13.039><c> an</c><00:24:13.259><c> eternal</c><00:24:13.720><c> context</c><00:24:14.220><c> on</c><00:24:14.359><c> it.</c>

00:24:14.460 --> 00:24:17.339
Living<00:24:14.740><c> long</c><00:24:15.079><c> on</c><00:24:15.299><c> the</c><00:24:15.480><c> earth</c><00:24:15.660><c> is</c><00:24:15.859><c> the</c><00:24:16.019><c> hope</c><00:24:16.099><c> of</c><00:24:16.299><c> the</c><00:24:16.480><c> saints.</c>

00:24:17.539 --> 00:24:20.740
So<00:24:18.099><c> again</c><00:24:18.480><c> here</c><00:24:18.700><c> is</c><00:24:18.859><c> an</c><00:24:19.140><c> extremely</c><00:24:19.680><c> important</c><00:24:20.160><c> principle</c><00:24:20.460><c> that</c><00:24:20.619><c> is</c>

00:24:20.740 --> 00:24:21.740

00:24:22.140 --> 00:24:24.740
God<00:24:22.420><c> values</c><00:24:22.960><c> his</c><00:24:23.279><c> order</c><00:24:23.559><c> of</c><00:24:23.779><c> things</c><00:24:23.900><c> that</c><00:24:24.059><c> the</c><00:24:24.299><c> truth</c><00:24:24.460><c> ought</c>

00:24:31.359 --> 00:24:36.000
And<00:24:31.920><c> when</c><00:24:32.099><c> we</c><00:24:32.319><c> obey</c><00:24:32.519><c> this</c><00:24:32.799><c> commandment</c><00:24:34.000><c> we're</c><00:24:34.799><c> not</c><00:24:34.920><c> only</c><00:24:35.240><c> ensuring</c><00:24:35.680><c> the</c>

00:24:37.140 --> 00:24:41.619
But<00:24:37.279><c> we're</c><00:24:37.539><c> ensuring</c><00:24:37.980><c> that</c><00:24:39.279><c> we</c><00:24:39.480><c> will</c><00:24:39.700><c> please</c><00:24:39.940><c> God</c><00:24:40.460><c> and</c><00:24:41.420><c> live</c>

00:24:45.279 --> 00:24:48.559
And<00:24:45.720><c> so</c><00:24:45.940><c> children</c><00:24:46.339><c> are</c><00:24:46.940><c> a</c><00:24:47.160><c> commander</c><00:24:47.440><c> to</c><00:24:47.700><c> obey</c><00:24:47.960><c> and</c><00:24:48.200><c> to</c><00:24:48.420><c> honor</c>

00:24:58.140 --> 00:25:01.619
And<00:24:58.380><c> we</c><00:24:58.519><c> say</c><00:24:58.660><c> to</c><00:24:58.779><c> our</c><00:24:58.920><c> young</c><00:24:59.099><c> people</c><00:24:59.420><c> and</c><00:25:00.619><c> we</c><00:25:01.140><c> say</c><00:25:01.259><c> it</c><00:25:01.400><c> in</c><00:25:01.539><c> a</c>

You<00:28:50.220><c> know</c><00:28:50.299><c> as</c><00:28:50.440><c> the</c><00:28:50.720><c> last</c><00:28:51.099><c> thing</c><00:28:51.299><c> he</c><00:28:51.559><c> did</c><00:28:52.059><c> before</c><00:28:53.119><c> he</c><00:28:53.460><c> expired</c>

00:28:53.779 --> 00:28:55.779
was<00:28:54.039><c> to</c><00:28:54.359><c> think</c><00:28:54.519><c> of</c><00:28:54.740><c> his</c><00:28:54.940><c> mother.</c>

00:28:56.180 --> 00:29:00.880
And<00:28:56.700><c> he</c><00:28:56.819><c> said</c><00:28:57.039><c> to</c><00:28:57.240><c> the</c><00:28:57.400><c> beloved</c><00:28:57.700><c> John</c><00:28:58.220><c> behold</c><00:28:59.559><c> thy</c><00:28:59.819><c> mother.</c>

00:29:01.980 --> 00:29:04.500
And<00:29:02.339><c> he</c><00:29:02.500><c> committed</c><00:29:02.740><c> her</c><00:29:03.000><c> to</c><00:29:03.140><c> the</c><00:29:03.319><c> care</c><00:29:03.460><c> of</c><00:29:03.700><c> John.</c>

00:29:05.380 --> 00:29:08.539
Even<00:29:05.640><c> when</c><00:29:05.819><c> he</c><00:29:05.960><c> was</c><00:29:06.160><c> in</c><00:29:06.519><c> tremendous</c><00:29:06.960><c> agony</c><00:29:07.319><c> for</c><00:29:07.519><c> himself.</c>

00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:11.819
Now<00:29:09.680><c> there's</c><00:29:09.839><c> an</c><00:29:10.019><c> example</c><00:29:10.420><c> of</c><00:29:10.700><c> honouring</c><00:29:11.019><c> one's</c><00:29:11.380><c> parents</c><00:29:11.579><c> and</c>

00:29:11.819 --> 00:29:15.140
submitting<00:29:12.140><c> even</c><00:29:12.799><c> to</c><00:29:13.059><c> parents</c><00:29:13.299><c> who</c><00:29:13.500><c> perhaps</c><00:29:13.839><c> knew</c><00:29:13.980><c> less</c><00:29:14.220><c> than</c><00:29:14.380><c> himself.</c>

00:29:17.460 --> 00:29:21.819
It's<00:29:17.680><c> one</c><00:29:17.819><c> of</c><00:29:17.940><c> the</c><00:29:18.099><c> great</c><00:29:18.240><c> afflictions</c><00:29:18.900><c> of</c><00:29:19.960><c> older</c><00:29:20.619><c> children.</c>

00:29:22.059 --> 00:29:24.579
That<00:29:22.619><c> they</c><00:29:22.839><c> think</c><00:29:23.019><c> their</c><00:29:23.279><c> parents</c><00:29:23.519><c> don't</c><00:29:23.839><c> really</c><00:29:24.099><c> understand</c>

00:29:24.579 --> 00:29:26.000
or<00:29:24.759><c> know</c><00:29:24.980><c> very</c><00:29:25.220><c> much.</c>

00:29:27.039 --> 00:29:29.059
Something<00:29:27.240><c> we</c><00:29:27.339><c> need</c><00:29:27.519><c> to</c><00:29:27.640><c> be</c><00:29:27.799><c> aware</c><00:29:28.000><c> of.</c>

00:29:30.059 --> 00:29:32.119
There<00:29:30.140><c> are</c><00:29:30.240><c> lots</c><00:29:30.339><c> of</c><00:29:30.440><c> good</c><00:29:30.619><c> examples</c><00:29:31.059><c> through</c><00:29:31.240><c> the</c><00:29:31.440><c> Bible</c><00:29:31.700><c> of</c>

00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:36.079
people<00:29:32.500><c> who</c><00:29:32.720><c> were</c><00:29:33.000><c> obedient</c><00:29:33.400><c> even</c><00:29:33.880><c> to</c><00:29:34.400><c> unworthy</c><00:29:34.980><c> parents.</c>

00:29:36.740 --> 00:29:39.859
Look<00:29:36.900><c> at</c><00:29:37.039><c> the</c><00:29:37.200><c> story</c><00:29:37.359><c> of</c><00:29:37.559><c> Jonathan</c><00:29:38.000><c> and</c><00:29:39.019><c> Saul.</c>

00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:43.819
Even<00:29:41.180><c> while</c><00:29:41.519><c> Saul</c><00:29:41.799><c> was</c><00:29:42.039><c> pursuing</c><00:29:42.440><c> his</c><00:29:42.720><c> best</c><00:29:43.039><c> friend.</c>

00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:48.519
Wrongly<00:29:45.480><c> trying</c><00:29:45.720><c> to</c><00:29:45.980><c> murder</c><00:29:46.599><c> the</c><00:29:47.119><c> greatest</c><00:29:47.480><c> warrior</c><00:29:47.819><c> in</c><00:29:48.039><c> Israel.</c>

00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:51.720
That<00:29:49.299><c> had</c><00:29:49.440><c> never</c><00:29:49.660><c> done</c><00:29:49.839><c> him</c><00:29:50.039><c> a</c><00:29:50.180><c> moment's</c><00:29:50.640><c> wrong.</c>

00:29:52.160 --> 00:29:54.500
Did<00:29:52.319><c> Jonathan</c><00:29:52.900><c> desert</c><00:29:53.420><c> his</c><00:29:53.720><c> father?</c>

00:29:56.019 --> 00:29:58.380

00:30:01.799 --> 00:30:04.799
Well<00:30:02.160><c> certainly</c><00:30:02.400><c> Jonathan</c><00:30:02.839><c> didn't</c><00:30:03.460><c> kill</c><00:30:03.839><c> David.</c>

00:30:05.140 --> 00:30:06.799
That<00:30:05.319><c> would</c><00:30:05.460><c> have</c><00:30:05.559><c> been</c><00:30:05.660><c> wrong</c><00:30:05.819><c> in</c><00:30:05.980><c> the</c><00:30:06.119><c> eyes</c><00:30:06.259><c> of</c><00:30:06.500><c> God.</c>

00:30:07.180 --> 00:30:09.299
But<00:30:07.319><c> he</c><00:30:07.400><c> was</c><00:30:07.700><c> there</c><00:30:08.000><c> on</c><00:30:08.180><c> the</c><00:30:08.339><c> battlefield</c><00:30:08.559><c> with</c><00:30:08.779><c> his</c><00:30:09.059><c> father</c>

00:30:09.299 --> 00:30:12.180
when<00:30:09.440><c> his</c><00:30:09.680><c> father</c><00:30:09.900><c> was</c><00:30:10.099><c> eventually</c><00:30:10.539><c> slain.</c>

00:30:13.039 --> 00:30:15.599
And<00:30:13.519><c> as</c><00:30:13.720><c> much</c><00:30:13.880><c> as</c><00:30:14.039><c> he</c><00:30:14.220><c> could</c><00:30:14.380><c> he</c><00:30:14.539><c> submitted</c><00:30:14.880><c> to</c><00:30:15.099><c> his</c><00:30:15.339><c> father</c>

00:30:15.599 --> 00:30:17.619

00:30:20.599 --> 00:30:24.519
There's<00:30:21.119><c> plenty</c><00:30:21.380><c> of</c><00:30:21.599><c> bad</c><00:30:21.759><c> examples</c><00:30:22.200><c> of</c><00:30:22.420><c> people</c><00:30:22.660><c> who</c><00:30:24.099><c> didn't</c>

00:30:25.359 --> 00:30:28.259

There<00:30:34.779><c> are</c><00:30:34.900><c> lots</c><00:30:35.079><c> of</c><00:30:35.339><c> sons</c><00:30:35.619><c> that</c><00:30:36.619><c> refuse</c><00:30:37.140><c> their</c><00:30:37.819><c> parents'</c><00:30:38.680><c> example.</c>

00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:43.400

00:30:43.579 --> 00:30:46.220

00:30:46.380 --> 00:30:50.180
This<00:30:46.819><c> is</c><00:30:47.099><c> my</c><00:30:47.359><c> beloved</c><00:30:47.880><c> son</c><00:30:48.160><c> in</c><00:30:48.420><c> whom</c><00:30:48.640><c> I</c><00:30:48.859><c> am</c><00:30:49.140><c> well</c><00:30:49.500><c> pleased,</c><00:30:49.819><c> God</c>

00:30:53.779 --> 00:30:56.259
Because<00:30:54.119><c> he</c><00:30:54.279><c> was</c><00:30:54.460><c> an</c><00:30:54.640><c> obedient</c><00:30:55.119><c> son.</c>

00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:01.740
We<00:30:58.279><c> might</c><00:30:58.480><c> just</c><00:30:58.759><c> say</c><00:30:58.980><c> are</c><00:30:59.160><c> there</c><00:30:59.359><c> any</c><00:30:59.599><c> grounds</c><00:30:59.960><c> to</c><00:31:00.299><c> disobey</c><00:31:00.799><c> a</c><00:31:00.980><c> parent?</c>

00:34:06.180 --> 00:34:09.260
It's<00:34:06.299><c> one</c><00:34:06.480><c> way</c><00:34:06.660><c> I</c><00:34:06.859><c> would</c><00:34:07.220><c> think</c><00:34:07.339><c> it's</c><00:34:07.559><c> quite</c><00:34:07.779><c> useful</c><00:34:08.119><c> to</c><00:34:08.300><c> put</c><00:34:08.440><c> it.</c>

00:34:09.719 --> 00:34:12.679

00:34:18.440 --> 00:34:21.539
This<00:34:18.659><c> is</c><00:34:18.940><c> a</c><00:34:19.260><c> slow</c><00:34:19.900><c> burning</c><00:34:20.539><c> anger.</c>

00:34:21.880 --> 00:34:23.880

00:38:43.119 --> 00:38:46.460
That's<00:38:43.599><c> when</c><00:38:43.739><c> the</c><00:38:43.960><c> child</c><00:38:44.119><c> becomes</c><00:38:44.619><c> exasperated</c><00:38:45.179><c> because</c><00:38:45.360><c> they</c><00:38:45.539><c> can't</c><00:38:45.860><c> really</c><00:38:46.219><c> see</c>

00:38:58.380 --> 00:39:00.960

00:39:06.079 --> 00:39:08.460

00:39:19.599 --> 00:39:22.440

00:39:24.559 --> 00:39:27.699
Another<00:39:24.760><c> case</c><00:39:25.119><c> is</c><00:39:25.860><c> unreasonable</c><00:39:26.599><c> commands.</c>

00:39:37.780 --> 00:39:40.179

00:39:44.219 --> 00:39:46.360
Sometimes<00:39:44.659><c> it's</c><00:39:44.860><c> due</c><00:39:45.000><c> to</c><00:39:45.139><c> their</c><00:39:45.300><c> own</c><00:39:45.539><c> grievances</c><00:39:46.000><c> or</c><00:39:46.239><c> their</c>

00:46:18.000 --> 00:46:20.559
Showing<00:46:18.440><c> to</c><00:46:18.579><c> the</c><00:46:18.619><c> generation</c><00:46:19.079><c> to</c><00:46:19.360><c> come</c><00:46:19.519><c> the</c><00:46:19.820><c> praises</c><00:46:20.079><c> of</c><00:46:20.380><c> Yahweh</c>

00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:25.500

00:46:43.480 --> 00:46:45.480
Now<00:46:43.659><c> it's</c><00:46:43.840><c> not</c><00:46:43.940><c> a</c><00:46:44.019><c> matter</c><00:46:44.159><c> of</c><00:46:44.320><c> whether</c><00:46:44.440><c> we</c><00:46:44.679><c> want</c><00:46:44.880><c> to</c><00:46:45.039><c> do</c><00:46:45.099><c> it</c><00:46:45.219><c> or</c><00:46:45.360><c> not.</c>

00:46:45.480 --> 00:46:47.860
It's<00:46:45.760><c> a</c><00:46:45.980><c> law</c><00:46:46.179><c> in</c><00:46:46.300><c> Israel</c><00:46:46.719><c> that</c><00:46:46.860><c> we</c><00:46:46.980><c> should</c><00:46:47.159><c> pass</c><00:46:47.500><c> them</c><00:46:47.639><c> on</c><00:46:47.760><c> to</c>

our<00:46:48.039><c> children.</c>

00:46:51.059 --> 00:46:52.000
Why?

00:46:52.639 --> 00:46:54.980
That<00:46:52.800><c> the</c><00:46:53.000><c> generation</c><00:46:53.440><c> to</c><00:46:53.699><c> come</c><00:46:53.900><c> might</c><00:46:54.159><c> know</c><00:46:54.460><c> them</c>

00:46:55.440 --> 00:46:57.139
even<00:46:55.880><c> the</c><00:46:56.139><c> children</c><00:46:56.360><c> which</c><00:46:56.579><c> should</c><00:46:56.719><c> be</c><00:46:56.960><c> born</c>

00:46:57.139 --> 00:46:58.980
who<00:46:57.300><c> should</c><00:46:57.480><c> arise</c><00:46:57.800><c> and</c><00:46:57.980><c> declare</c><00:46:58.179><c> them</c><00:46:58.280><c> to</c><00:46:58.420><c> their</c><00:46:58.639><c> children.</c>

00:46:59.099 --> 00:47:03.739
So<00:46:59.159><c> you</c><00:46:59.219><c> can</c><00:46:59.500><c> see</c><00:46:59.659><c> that</c><00:47:00.619><c> generation</c><00:47:01.300><c> should</c><00:47:01.599><c> follow</c><00:47:01.860><c> generation</c><00:47:02.380><c> in</c><00:47:02.579><c> these</c><00:47:02.820><c> things.</c>

00:47:04.380 --> 00:47:05.260

00:47:05.380 --> 00:47:07.980

00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:11.440

00:47:25.659 --> 00:47:28.579
And<00:47:25.800><c> forget</c><00:47:26.000><c> not</c><00:47:26.219><c> the</c><00:47:26.380><c> works</c><00:47:26.559><c> of</c><00:47:26.739><c> God</c><00:47:26.940><c> but</c><00:47:27.119><c> keep</c><00:47:27.320><c> his</c><00:47:27.539><c> commandments.</c>

00:47:39.579 --> 00:47:42.000

and<00:53:18.059><c> why</c><00:53:18.380><c> they</c><00:53:18.659><c> should</c><00:53:18.780><c> not</c><00:53:18.900><c> have</c><00:53:19.000><c> done</c><00:53:19.139><c> what</c><00:53:19.320><c> they</c><00:53:19.539><c> did.</c>

00:53:22.400 --> 00:53:25.099
But<00:53:22.539><c> a</c><00:53:22.679><c> child</c><00:53:22.980><c> left</c><00:53:23.179><c> to</c><00:53:23.340><c> himself</c><00:53:23.760><c> bringeth</c><00:53:24.159><c> his</c><00:53:24.400><c> mother</c><00:53:24.679><c> to</c><00:53:24.960><c> shame</c>

00:53:25.099 --> 00:53:26.960
and<00:53:25.199><c> that's</c><00:53:25.360><c> an</c><00:53:25.579><c> interesting</c><00:53:25.900><c> comment,</c><00:53:26.159><c> isn't</c><00:53:26.340><c> it?</c>

00:53:27.900 --> 00:53:29.420
Because,<00:53:28.380><c> you</c><00:53:28.480><c> know,</c><00:53:28.619><c> in</c><00:53:28.760><c> scriptural</c><00:53:29.119><c> terms,</c>

00:53:29.559 --> 00:53:33.659
the<00:53:29.679><c> rod</c><00:53:29.780><c> and</c><00:53:29.960><c> reproof</c><00:53:31.019><c> is</c><00:53:31.539><c> the</c><00:53:31.739><c> responsibility</c><00:53:32.239><c> of</c><00:53:32.400><c> the</c><00:53:32.579><c> father.</c>

00:53:34.579 --> 00:53:39.199
What<00:53:34.699><c> that's</c><00:53:34.860><c> saying</c><00:53:35.179><c> is</c><00:53:35.400><c> that</c><00:53:36.619><c> if</c><00:53:37.360><c> the</c><00:53:37.579><c> child</c><00:53:37.739><c> is</c><00:53:37.960><c> not</c><00:53:38.159><c> disciplined,</c>

00:53:40.079 --> 00:53:44.019
then<00:53:40.219><c> the</c><00:53:40.460><c> mother's</c><00:53:40.880><c> good</c><00:53:41.139><c> work</c><00:53:41.659><c> is</c><00:53:42.199><c> totally</c><00:53:42.679><c> undermined.</c>

00:53:44.420 --> 00:53:46.019
A<00:53:44.519><c> mother's</c><00:53:44.900><c> care</c><00:53:45.059><c> and</c><00:53:45.179><c> a</c><00:53:45.199><c> mother's</c><00:53:45.539><c> dedication</c>

00:53:46.019 --> 00:53:48.719
that<00:53:46.239><c> is</c><00:53:46.739><c> so</c><00:53:47.039><c> instinctive</c><00:53:47.619><c> to</c><00:53:47.760><c> that</c><00:53:47.980><c> child</c>

00:53:49.280 --> 00:53:53.179
can<00:53:49.760><c> be</c><00:53:50.000><c> totally</c><00:53:50.239><c> undermined</c><00:53:50.820><c> when</c><00:53:51.380><c> discipline</c><00:53:51.800><c> is</c><00:53:52.019><c> not</c><00:53:52.199><c> administered.</c>

00:53:53.199 --> 00:53:55.480
In<00:53:53.679><c> chapter</c><00:53:53.960><c> 30</c><00:53:54.360><c> in</c><00:53:54.559><c> verse</c><00:53:55.000><c> 17,</c>

00:53:55.579 --> 00:53:58.239
we<00:53:55.719><c> have</c><00:53:56.320><c> the</c><00:53:56.940><c> consequence</c><00:53:57.559><c> of</c><00:53:57.800><c> a</c><00:53:57.960><c> child</c>

00:53:58.239 --> 00:54:00.599
that<00:53:58.599><c> refuses</c><00:53:58.900><c> to</c><00:53:59.179><c> obey</c><00:53:59.340><c> its</c><00:53:59.679><c> parents.</c>

00:54:02.340 --> 00:54:03.760
It's<00:54:02.440><c> not</c><00:54:02.539><c> a</c><00:54:02.599><c> very</c><00:54:02.800><c> pretty</c><00:54:02.940><c> picture,</c><00:54:03.280><c> is</c><00:54:03.440><c> it?</c>

00:54:03.960 --> 00:54:05.980
That's<00:54:04.440><c> what</c><00:54:04.639><c> God</c><00:54:04.960><c> says.</c>

00:54:06.599 --> 00:54:08.739
And<00:54:06.719><c> so</c><00:54:06.800><c> we</c><00:54:06.920><c> come</c><00:54:07.079><c> back</c><00:54:07.300><c> to</c><00:54:07.500><c> Proverbs</c><00:54:07.739><c> 1</c><00:54:08.059><c> and</c><00:54:08.239><c> chapter</c><00:54:08.500><c> 8,</c>

00:54:08.760 --> 00:54:11.179
just<00:54:09.019><c> to</c><00:54:09.639><c> wind</c><00:54:09.860><c> up</c><00:54:10.059><c> a</c><00:54:10.179><c> few</c><00:54:10.320><c> of</c><00:54:10.460><c> these</c><00:54:10.699><c> many</c><00:54:10.920><c> verses</c>

00:54:11.179 --> 00:54:12.360
you<00:54:11.360><c> could</c><00:54:11.500><c> go</c><00:54:11.739><c> through</c><00:54:11.820><c> in</c><00:54:11.980><c> the</c><00:54:12.179><c> Proverbs</c>

00:54:12.360 --> 00:54:16.119
that<00:54:12.539><c> have</c><00:54:12.679><c> to</c><00:54:12.860><c> do</c><00:54:12.980><c> with</c><00:54:14.119><c> the</c><00:54:14.559><c> teaching</c><00:54:14.800><c> of</c><00:54:15.079><c> children.</c>

00:54:17.559 --> 00:54:19.739
Proverbs<00:54:17.860><c> 1</c><00:54:18.139><c> and</c><00:54:18.320><c> verse</c><00:54:18.539><c> 8.</c>

00:54:19.860 --> 00:54:23.239
My<00:54:20.380><c> son,</c><00:54:21.019><c> hear</c><00:54:21.119><c> the</c><00:54:21.320><c> instruction</c><00:54:21.800><c> of</c><00:54:22.000><c> thy</c><00:54:22.179><c> father,</c>

00:54:23.739 --> 00:54:26.619
and<00:54:23.840><c> forsake</c><00:54:24.280><c> not</c><00:54:24.539><c> the</c><00:54:24.800><c> law</c><00:54:25.139><c> of</c><00:54:25.500><c> thy</c><00:54:25.679><c> mother.</c>

00:54:27.340 --> 00:54:28.860
I<00:54:27.780><c> think</c><00:54:27.860><c> it's</c><00:54:28.000><c> a</c><00:54:28.099><c> very</c><00:54:28.260><c> beautiful</c><00:54:28.579><c> verse</c>

00:54:28.860 --> 00:54:32.219
because<00:54:29.219><c> it</c><00:54:29.460><c> shows</c><00:54:29.780><c> that</c><00:54:31.460><c> both</c><00:54:31.880><c> parents</c>

00:54:32.219 --> 00:54:34.780
need<00:54:32.420><c> to</c><00:54:32.639><c> contribute</c><00:54:32.900><c> equally</c><00:54:33.219><c> in</c><00:54:33.380><c> the</c><00:54:33.539><c> process.</c>

00:54:35.940 --> 00:54:39.880
Even<00:54:36.199><c> though</c><00:54:36.400><c> they</c><00:54:36.599><c> will</c><00:54:37.340><c> affect</c><00:54:37.760><c> the</c><00:54:38.019><c> child</c><00:54:38.219><c> from</c><00:54:38.440><c> different</c><00:54:38.719><c> angles,</c>

00:54:40.420 --> 00:54:45.019
nevertheless,<00:54:40.860><c> there's</c><00:54:41.139><c> got</c><00:54:41.300><c> to</c><00:54:41.500><c> be</c><00:54:41.639><c> a</c><00:54:41.860><c> unity</c><00:54:42.480><c> between</c><00:54:43.800><c> the</c><00:54:44.059><c> parents.</c>

the<00:54:48.800><c> parents</c><00:54:48.800><c> need</c><00:54:49.059><c> to</c><00:54:49.219><c> be</c><00:54:49.460><c> a</c><00:54:49.639><c> team.</c>

You<00:54:50.860><c> know,</c><00:54:51.219><c> children</c><00:54:51.340><c> instinctively</c><00:54:52.159><c> know</c>

00:54:55.360 --> 00:54:57.139
And<00:54:55.480><c> even</c><00:54:55.619><c> though</c><00:54:55.739><c> the</c><00:54:55.940><c> parents</c><00:54:56.119><c> might</c><00:54:56.420><c> occasionally</c><00:54:56.880><c> need</c>

00:55:33.820 --> 00:55:35.079

and<00:55:50.900><c> I</c><00:55:50.980><c> think</c><00:55:51.219><c> all</c><00:55:51.460><c> parents</c><00:55:51.739><c> would</c><00:55:51.980><c> know</c>

that<00:55:52.219><c> it's</c><00:55:52.360><c> a</c><00:55:52.420><c> very</c><00:55:52.619><c> difficult</c><00:55:52.860><c> age.</c>

00:56:00.559 --> 00:56:03.440

00:56:05.179 --> 00:56:07.239
You<00:56:05.179><c> know,</c><00:56:05.300><c> quite</c><00:56:05.539><c> often</c><00:56:05.780><c> the</c><00:56:06.000><c> child's</c><00:56:06.519><c> misbehaviour</c>

00:56:22.539 --> 00:56:23.679
If<00:56:22.559><c> children</c><00:56:22.800><c> need</c><00:56:23.000><c> to</c><00:56:23.119><c> be</c><00:56:23.340><c> punished,</c>

00:56:24.079 --> 00:56:26.980
then<00:56:24.139><c> punishment</c><00:56:24.559><c> ought</c><00:56:24.940><c> to</c><00:56:25.059><c> be</c><00:56:25.300><c> swift</c><00:56:25.579><c> and</c><00:56:25.960><c> decisive.</c>

00:56:28.019 --> 00:56:29.019
You<00:56:28.179><c> know,</c><00:56:28.199><c> you</c><00:56:28.300><c> go</c><00:56:28.420><c> through</c><00:56:28.599><c> the</c><00:56:28.760><c> Bible</c>

00:56:29.019 --> 00:56:33.199
and<00:56:29.280><c> find</c><00:56:30.159><c> the</c><00:56:30.840><c> way</c><00:56:31.019><c> that</c><00:56:31.239><c> God</c><00:56:31.420><c> deals</c><00:56:31.719><c> with</c><00:56:31.940><c> his</c><00:56:32.199><c> children.</c>

00:56:33.739 --> 00:56:34.980

God's<00:56:35.539><c> punishment</c><00:56:35.760><c> is</c><00:56:36.019><c> normally</c><00:56:36.380><c> instant,</c>

00:56:37.699 --> 00:56:39.280

00:56:39.639 --> 00:56:41.559

00:56:43.000 --> 00:56:45.199
You<00:56:43.119><c> know,</c><00:56:43.219><c> God</c><00:56:43.860><c> never</c><00:56:44.420><c> ever</c><00:56:44.739><c> commanded</c>

00:56:45.199 --> 00:56:46.820
what<00:56:45.500><c> we</c><00:56:45.699><c> have</c><00:56:45.840><c> today</c><00:56:46.199><c> with</c><00:56:46.420><c> the</c><00:56:46.639><c> prison</c><00:56:46.820><c> system</c>

00:56:52.119 --> 00:56:54.340
In<00:56:52.219><c> God's</c><00:56:52.559><c> law,</c><00:56:52.679><c> there</c><00:56:52.820><c> was</c><00:56:53.119><c> immediate</c><00:56:53.539><c> retribution</c>

00:56:55.119 --> 00:56:57.760
and<00:56:55.599><c> reparation</c><00:56:56.079><c> that</c><00:56:56.280><c> had</c><00:56:56.380><c> to</c><00:56:56.559><c> be</c><00:56:56.739><c> made.</c>

00:56:58.659 --> 00:57:00.780
So<00:56:58.800><c> you</c><00:56:58.860><c> see,</c><00:56:58.960><c> God</c><00:56:59.139><c> didn't</c><00:56:59.480><c> punish</c><00:56:59.820><c> over</c><00:57:00.159><c> a</c><00:57:00.260><c> long</c><00:57:00.400><c> period,</c>

00:57:00.800 --> 00:57:04.039
and<00:57:01.619><c> I</c><00:57:01.900><c> think</c><00:57:02.000><c> there's</c><00:57:02.119><c> a</c><00:57:02.219><c> lot</c><00:57:02.300><c> of</c><00:57:02.440><c> wisdom</c><00:57:02.659><c> in</c><00:57:02.800><c> what</c><00:57:03.000><c> God</c><00:57:03.239><c> did</c>

00:57:04.920 --> 00:57:06.900
because<00:57:05.400><c> when</c><00:57:05.880><c> children</c><00:57:06.199><c> misbehave,</c>

00:57:07.019 --> 00:57:09.800
there<00:57:07.119><c> ought</c><00:57:07.320><c> to</c><00:57:07.480><c> be</c><00:57:07.639><c> punishment</c><00:57:08.039><c> for</c><00:57:08.280><c> misbehaviour,</c>

00:57:10.039 --> 00:57:12.420
but<00:57:10.300><c> it</c><00:57:10.420><c> ought</c><00:57:10.500><c> to</c><00:57:10.659><c> be</c><00:57:10.960><c> strong</c><00:57:11.300><c> and</c><00:57:11.659><c> quick</c><00:57:11.900><c> and</c><00:57:12.300><c> firm,</c>

00:57:12.460 --> 00:57:15.659
and<00:57:12.599><c> then</c><00:57:12.840><c> followed</c><00:57:12.960><c> up</c><00:57:13.199><c> later</c><00:57:13.460><c> on</c><00:57:13.699><c> by</c><00:57:13.940><c> instruction</c><00:57:14.460><c> and</c><00:57:14.719><c> love.</c>

00:57:16.840 --> 00:57:18.219
I<00:57:17.239><c> always</c><00:57:17.340><c> wonder</c><00:57:17.579><c> sometimes</c>

00:57:18.219 --> 00:57:19.719
when<00:57:18.460><c> you</c><00:57:18.559><c> hear</c><00:57:18.719><c> parents</c><00:57:19.000><c> say</c><00:57:19.199><c> to</c><00:57:19.360><c> a</c><00:57:19.460><c> child,</c>

00:57:20.159 --> 00:57:22.079
well,<00:57:20.380><c> that's</c><00:57:20.679><c> it,</c><00:57:20.900><c> you've</c><00:57:21.340><c> done</c><00:57:21.500><c> something</c><00:57:21.800><c> wrong,</c>

00:57:22.199 --> 00:57:24.039
you<00:57:22.260><c> can't</c><00:57:22.699><c> have</c><00:57:22.860><c> your</c><00:57:23.059><c> bike</c><00:57:23.219><c> for</c><00:57:23.400><c> six</c><00:57:23.659><c> months.</c>

00:57:24.539 --> 00:57:26.440
Three<00:57:24.739><c> months</c><00:57:24.980><c> later,</c><00:57:25.280><c> the</c><00:57:25.460><c> child's</c><00:57:25.679><c> got</c><00:57:25.820><c> no</c><00:57:26.099><c> concept</c>

00:57:26.440 --> 00:57:28.039
of<00:57:26.579><c> what</c><00:57:26.639><c> they</c><00:57:26.800><c> did</c><00:57:26.940><c> wrong,</c>

00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:30.559
and<00:57:28.619><c> they</c><00:57:28.780><c> can't</c><00:57:28.980><c> see</c><00:57:29.039><c> any</c><00:57:29.280><c> point</c><00:57:29.420><c> in</c><00:57:29.539><c> the</c><00:57:29.699><c> punishment.</c>

00:57:32.019 --> 00:57:34.980
So<00:57:32.340><c> punishment</c><00:57:32.619><c> ought</c><00:57:32.820><c> to</c><00:57:32.960><c> be</c><00:57:33.179><c> swift</c><00:57:33.500><c> and</c><00:57:33.920><c> decisive,</c>

00:57:35.280 --> 00:57:37.119
and<00:57:35.400><c> then</c><00:57:35.639><c> followed</c><00:57:35.780><c> up</c><00:57:36.000><c> by</c><00:57:36.239><c> love.</c>

00:57:38.860 --> 00:57:39.699
And<00:57:39.039><c> above</c><00:57:39.199><c> all</c><00:57:39.440><c> parents,</c>

00:57:39.840 --> 00:57:42.199
the<00:57:40.000><c> thing</c><00:57:40.159><c> that</c><00:57:40.659><c> perhaps</c><00:57:41.000><c> is</c><00:57:41.579><c> hardest</c><00:57:41.820><c> to</c><00:57:42.059><c> do</c>

00:57:42.199 --> 00:57:44.280
but<00:57:42.320><c> is</c><00:57:42.539><c> most</c><00:57:42.800><c> important</c><00:57:43.239><c> in</c><00:57:43.360><c> the</c><00:57:43.519><c> raising</c><00:57:43.739><c> of</c><00:57:44.039><c> children</c>

00:57:46.900 --> 00:57:50.480
Children<00:57:47.300><c> are</c><00:57:47.460><c> the</c><00:57:47.579><c> greatest</c><00:57:48.099><c> imitators</c><00:57:48.840><c> in</c><00:57:49.380><c> the</c><00:57:49.539><c> world.</c>

00:57:51.519 --> 00:57:52.719
They<00:57:51.519><c> might</c><00:57:51.739><c> listen</c><00:57:51.980><c> to</c><00:57:52.079><c> what</c><00:57:52.280><c> you</c><00:57:52.480><c> say,</c>

00:57:57.539 --> 00:58:00.019
If<00:57:57.639><c> you</c><00:57:57.699><c> want</c><00:57:57.840><c> your</c><00:57:58.039><c> children</c><00:57:58.280><c> to</c><00:57:58.400><c> be</c><00:57:58.559><c> involved</c><00:57:58.860><c> in</c><00:57:58.940><c> the</c><00:57:59.139><c> meeting,</c>

01:00:31.480 --> 01:00:34.300
was<01:00:31.760><c> that</c><01:00:32.119><c> it</c><01:00:32.400><c> was</c><01:00:32.679><c> extracted</c><01:00:32.940><c> under</c><01:00:33.179><c> torture.</c>

01:00:35.420 --> 01:00:36.539

01:00:41.480 --> 01:00:42.539

01:00:54.179 --> 01:00:55.539

01:00:58.840 --> 01:01:02.159
was<01:00:59.079><c> the</c><01:00:59.239><c> fact</c><01:00:59.340><c> that</c><01:00:59.519><c> everybody</c><01:00:59.900><c> despised</c><01:01:01.199><c> labour.</c>

01:01:02.599 --> 01:01:04.519
To<01:01:02.760><c> have</c><01:01:02.940><c> to</c><01:01:03.219><c> do</c><01:01:03.420><c> anything</c><01:01:03.760><c> and</c><01:01:03.920><c> to</c><01:01:04.139><c> work</c>

01:01:09.000 --> 01:01:11.699
So<01:01:09.440><c> the</c><01:01:09.639><c> upper</c><01:01:09.840><c> class</c><01:01:10.159><c> was</c><01:01:10.380><c> absolutely</c><01:01:10.699><c> despised</c><01:01:11.159><c> doing</c><01:01:11.380><c> anything</c>

and<01:01:11.800><c> they</c><01:01:12.019><c> became</c><01:01:12.300><c> indolent</c><01:01:12.840><c> and</c><01:01:13.119><c> indulgent.</c>

01:01:13.519 --> 01:01:14.679
They<01:01:13.639><c> did</c><01:01:13.840><c> nothing.</c>

01:01:14.719 --> 01:01:16.619
Just<01:01:14.980><c> clicked</c><01:01:15.159><c> their</c><01:01:15.380><c> fingers</c><01:01:15.659><c> and</c><01:01:15.900><c> slaves</c><01:01:16.139><c> would</c><01:01:16.340><c> run</c><01:01:16.440><c> from</c>

all<01:01:16.780><c> directions</c>

01:01:17.139 --> 01:01:18.599
to<01:01:17.320><c> do</c><01:01:17.440><c> it</c><01:01:17.639><c> for</c><01:01:17.840><c> you.</c>

01:01:18.940 --> 01:01:21.739
Their<01:01:19.199><c> total</c><01:01:19.420><c> preoccupation</c><01:01:20.199><c> was</c><01:01:20.699><c> self</c><01:01:21.219><c>-indulgence.</c>

01:01:21.780 --> 01:01:24.079
How<01:01:21.960><c> can</c><01:01:22.119><c> we</c><01:01:22.280><c> enjoy</c><01:01:22.539><c> ourselves</c><01:01:22.880><c> better</c><01:01:23.139><c> today?</c>

01:01:24.219 --> 01:01:26.199
Hence,<01:01:24.500><c> you</c><01:01:24.519><c> know,</c><01:01:24.820><c> the</c><01:01:25.000><c> excesses</c><01:01:25.360><c> of</c><01:01:25.559><c> Roman</c><01:01:25.719><c> society</c>

01:01:26.199 --> 01:01:28.260
with<01:01:26.340><c> their</c><01:01:26.559><c> orgies</c><01:01:26.920><c> and</c><01:01:27.059><c> their</c><01:01:27.320><c> circuses</c>

01:01:28.260 --> 01:01:29.380
and<01:01:28.539><c> their</c><01:01:28.820><c> entertainments</c>

01:01:29.380 --> 01:01:32.019
and<01:01:29.920><c> their</c><01:01:30.099><c> immorality</c><01:01:30.579><c> that</c><01:01:30.760><c> Paul</c><01:01:30.880><c> talks</c><01:01:31.159><c> about</c><01:01:31.380><c> in</c><01:01:31.579><c> Romans</c><01:01:31.800><c> 1</c>

01:01:32.019 --> 01:01:34.800
because<01:01:32.239><c> they</c><01:01:32.400><c> had</c><01:01:32.599><c> nothing</c><01:01:32.880><c> else</c><01:01:33.159><c> to</c><01:01:33.380><c> do</c><01:01:33.460><c> with</c><01:01:33.619><c> their</c><01:01:33.840><c> time.</c>

01:01:35.579 --> 01:01:38.579
And<01:01:35.760><c> that</c><01:01:35.800><c> was</c><01:01:35.900><c> one</c><01:01:36.019><c> of</c><01:01:36.079><c> the</c><01:01:36.260><c> impacts</c><01:01:36.559><c> of</c><01:01:36.820><c> slavery</c><01:01:37.059><c> in</c><01:01:37.300><c> Roman</c><01:01:37.500><c> society.</c>

01:01:38.719 --> 01:01:40.099
So<01:01:39.239><c> you've</c><01:01:39.400><c> got</c><01:01:39.460><c> to</c><01:01:39.539><c> understand</c>

01:01:40.099 --> 01:01:41.780
that<01:01:40.340><c> Paul</c><01:01:40.599><c> preached</c><01:01:40.900><c> the</c><01:01:41.099><c> Gospel</c><01:01:41.340><c> and</c><01:01:41.519><c> the</c><01:01:41.679><c> will</c>

01:01:49.000 --> 01:01:51.880
For<01:01:49.039><c> the</c><01:01:49.400><c> slaves,</c><01:01:49.840><c> their</c><01:01:50.000><c> life</c><01:01:50.280><c> was</c><01:01:50.599><c> hopeless.</c>

01:01:53.579 --> 01:01:57.619
Roman<01:01:53.920><c> slaves</c><01:01:54.360><c> could</c><01:01:54.619><c> never</c><01:01:54.980><c> buy</c><01:01:55.199><c> their</c><01:01:55.420><c> way</c><01:01:55.619><c> out</c><01:01:56.579><c> of</c><01:01:56.840><c> slavery.</c>

01:01:59.800 --> 01:02:01.780
They<01:02:00.320><c> were</c><01:02:00.519><c> committed</c><01:02:00.800><c> for</c><01:02:01.019><c> life</c><01:02:01.239><c> to</c><01:02:01.400><c> be</c><01:02:01.579><c> slave.</c>

01:02:01.840 --> 01:02:04.960
If<01:02:01.920><c> you</c><01:02:02.019><c> run</c><01:02:02.179><c> away,</c><01:02:02.679><c> it</c><01:02:02.679><c> was</c><01:02:02.880><c> an</c><01:02:03.059><c> offence</c><01:02:03.320><c> punishable</c><01:02:03.760><c> by</c><01:02:04.019><c> death.</c>

01:02:06.679 --> 01:02:07.980
Now,<01:02:06.820><c> we're</c><01:02:06.980><c> not</c><01:02:07.159><c> quite</c><01:02:07.300><c> in</c><01:02:07.460><c> that</c><01:02:07.559><c> condition</c>

this<01:02:11.139><c> world,</c>

01:02:11.480 --> 01:02:14.719
we<01:02:11.480><c> can</c><01:02:11.699><c> at</c><01:02:11.820><c> least</c><01:02:12.039><c> change</c><01:02:12.480><c> jobs</c><01:02:12.840><c> if</c><01:02:13.000><c> things</c><01:02:13.239><c> get</c><01:02:13.500><c> too</c><01:02:13.800><c> bad.</c>

01:02:15.679 --> 01:02:17.840
Even<01:02:15.900><c> in</c><01:02:16.039><c> the</c><01:02:16.179><c> modern</c><01:02:16.300><c> society,</c><01:02:16.699><c> we</c><01:02:16.800><c> can</c><01:02:16.960><c> go</c><01:02:17.119><c> on</c><01:02:17.260><c> the</c><01:02:17.440><c> dole</c>

01:02:19.599 --> 01:02:22.480
They<01:02:19.780><c> had</c><01:02:20.019><c> no</c><01:02:20.380><c> choice</c><01:02:20.679><c> but</c><01:02:20.860><c> to</c><01:02:21.119><c> stay</c><01:02:21.239><c> with</c><01:02:21.420><c> their</c><01:02:21.619><c> masters.</c>

01:02:23.800 --> 01:02:26.340
And<01:02:23.900><c> you</c><01:02:23.960><c> can</c><01:02:24.099><c> imagine</c><01:02:24.420><c> when</c><01:02:24.579><c> the</c><01:02:24.739><c> Gospel</c><01:02:25.019><c> came</c><01:02:25.340><c> into</c><01:02:25.519><c> these</c><01:02:25.820><c> households</c>

the<01:02:32.159><c> tensions</c><01:02:32.460><c> that</c><01:02:32.639><c> would</c><01:02:32.800><c> now</c><01:02:33.039><c> arise</c><01:02:33.460><c> within</c><01:02:33.780><c> those</c><01:02:34.059><c> relationships</c>

01:10:08.840 --> 01:10:10.739
You<01:10:09.140><c> can</c><01:10:09.319><c> imagine</c><01:10:09.699><c> what</c><01:10:09.939><c> a</c><01:10:10.060><c> divinity</c><01:10:10.260><c> that</c><01:10:10.439><c> presented</c>
