So<00:16:38.980><c> if</c><00:16:39.080><c> you're</c><00:16:39.340><c> doubting</c><00:16:39.659><c> whether</c><00:16:40.000><c> I</c><00:16:40.340><c> came</c><00:16:40.500><c> down</c><00:16:40.659><c> from</c><00:16:40.879><c> heaven</c>

00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:43.379

00:16:43.379 --> 00:16:46.500
it's<00:16:43.960><c> really</c><00:16:44.259><c> answered</c><00:16:44.600><c> there</c><00:16:44.779><c> because</c><00:16:45.039><c> it's</c><00:16:45.299><c> in</c><00:16:45.419><c> the</c><00:16:45.679><c> context</c><00:16:46.139><c> of</c><00:16:46.340><c> all</c>

00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:52.379
The<00:16:49.700><c> thought</c><00:16:49.879><c> process</c><00:16:50.240><c> goes</c><00:16:50.600><c> through</c><00:16:50.840><c> Isaiah</c><00:16:51.139><c> 55.</c>

00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:56.379
If<00:16:53.059><c> you</c><00:16:53.279><c> want</c><00:16:53.419><c> food,</c><00:16:53.779><c> if</c><00:16:53.980><c> you</c><00:16:54.159><c> want</c><00:16:54.360><c> drink,</c><00:16:55.159><c> come</c><00:16:55.360><c> to</c><00:16:55.700><c> me,</c><00:16:55.960><c> because</c><00:16:56.059><c> I</c>

00:16:57.700 --> 00:17:00.779
That's<00:16:58.100><c> exactly</c><00:16:58.559><c> what</c><00:16:58.879><c> the</c><00:16:59.179><c> whole</c><00:16:59.740><c> of</c><00:17:00.179><c> the</c><00:17:00.379><c> chapter</c><00:17:00.600><c> says.</c>

00:17:00.820 --> 00:17:03.480
Where<00:17:01.019><c> does</c><00:17:01.179><c> the</c><00:17:01.440><c> bread</c><00:17:01.600><c> come</c><00:17:01.840><c> from</c><00:17:02.000><c> in</c><00:17:02.139><c> Isaiah</c><00:17:02.379><c> 55,</c><00:17:03.019><c> verse</c><00:17:03.259><c> 1?</c>

00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:05.140
Where's<00:17:04.160><c> this</c><00:17:04.400><c> bread</c><00:17:04.640><c> from?</c>

00:17:05.140 --> 00:17:06.279
Verse<00:17:05.799><c> 10.</c>

00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:10.960
As<00:17:06.579><c> the</c><00:17:06.940><c> rain</c><00:17:07.240><c> cometh</c><00:17:07.619><c> down,</c><00:17:09.440><c> and</c><00:17:09.619><c> gives</c><00:17:09.839><c> seed</c><00:17:10.200><c> to</c><00:17:10.460><c> the</c><00:17:10.720><c> sower,</c>

00:17:11.099 --> 00:17:13.059

00:17:15.420 --> 00:17:19.000
That's<00:17:15.900><c> what</c><00:17:16.019><c> Isaiah</c><00:17:16.319><c> 55</c><00:17:16.960><c> is</c><00:17:17.380><c> pressing</c><00:17:17.759><c> home.</c>

00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:27.000
So<00:17:23.220><c> as</c><00:17:23.380><c> we</c><00:17:23.500><c> go</c><00:17:23.720><c> through</c><00:17:24.039><c> Isaiah,</c><00:17:26.019><c> John</c><00:17:26.380><c> chapter,</c><00:17:26.579><c> you</c><00:17:26.660><c> can</c><00:17:26.799><c> go</c>

00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:27.480
both<00:17:27.240><c> ways.</c>

00:17:27.579 --> 00:17:31.180
You<00:17:27.619><c> can</c><00:17:27.839><c> start</c><00:17:28.039><c> in</c><00:17:28.220><c> Isaiah</c><00:17:28.500><c> 55</c><00:17:29.180><c> and</c><00:17:29.519><c> follow</c><00:17:29.680><c> through</c><00:17:30.180><c> into</c><00:17:30.460><c> the</c><00:17:30.619><c> Gospel</c><00:17:30.859><c> record</c><00:17:31.059><c> of</c>

John,<00:17:31.400><c> or</c><00:17:31.539><c> you</c><00:17:31.619><c> can</c><00:17:31.799><c> go</c><00:17:32.039><c> backwards.</c>

00:17:32.380 --> 00:17:35.339
It's<00:17:33.000><c> not,</c><00:17:33.319><c> let</c><00:17:33.740><c> me</c><00:17:33.880><c> tell</c><00:17:34.019><c> you,</c><00:17:34.160><c> it's</c><00:17:34.299><c> not</c><00:17:34.500><c> just</c><00:17:34.779><c> chapter</c><00:17:35.059><c> 6.</c>

00:17:35.420 --> 00:17:38.220
I<00:17:35.579><c> put</c><00:17:35.740><c> on</c><00:17:36.000><c> the</c><00:17:36.519><c> folder</c><00:17:36.920><c> that</c><00:17:37.200><c> you'll</c><00:17:37.359><c> have</c><00:17:37.480><c> a</c><00:17:37.619><c> copy</c><00:17:37.900><c> of.</c>

00:17:38.500 --> 00:17:40.980
Starts<00:17:38.779><c> in</c><00:17:38.839><c> chapter</c><00:17:39.240><c> 1</c><00:17:39.640><c> of</c><00:17:39.900><c> John</c><00:17:40.059><c> and</c><00:17:40.160><c> goes</c><00:17:40.359><c> all</c><00:17:40.640><c> the</c><00:17:40.720><c> way</c><00:17:40.839><c> at</c>

00:17:40.980 --> 00:17:42.880
least<00:17:41.259><c> through</c><00:17:41.480><c> to</c><00:17:41.660><c> chapter</c><00:17:41.940><c> 8.</c>

00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:47.539
I<00:17:43.279><c> think</c><00:17:43.400><c> there's</c><00:17:43.599><c> four</c><00:17:43.960><c> pages,</c><00:17:44.559><c> four</c><00:17:44.880><c> tables</c><00:17:45.400><c> of</c><00:17:46.660><c> references.</c>

00:17:48.039 --> 00:17:51.000
I'm<00:17:48.599><c> sure</c><00:17:48.819><c> I</c><00:17:49.019><c> haven't</c><00:17:49.160><c> captured</c><00:17:49.740><c> them</c><00:17:50.039><c> all.</c>

00:17:51.539 --> 00:17:53.859
So<00:17:51.960><c> it's</c><00:17:52.619><c> large.</c>

00:17:57.339 --> 00:18:01.200
Can<00:17:57.859><c> we</c><00:17:58.000><c> go</c><00:17:58.160><c> down</c><00:17:58.420><c> and</c><00:17:58.680><c> see</c><00:17:59.559><c> where</c><00:17:59.960><c> that</c><00:18:00.200><c> is?</c>

00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:04.119
We're<00:18:01.980><c> just</c><00:18:02.460><c> going</c><00:18:03.119><c> down</c><00:18:03.420><c> the</c><00:18:03.660><c> chapter.</c>

00:18:04.319 --> 00:18:06.799
We've<00:18:04.619><c> looked</c><00:18:04.740><c> at</c><00:18:04.920><c> the</c><00:18:05.140><c> references</c><00:18:05.460><c> to</c><00:18:05.819><c> buying</c><00:18:06.099><c> food</c><00:18:06.519><c> and</c>

00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:08.079
buying<00:18:07.140><c> meat.</c>

00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:12.980
And<00:18:08.259><c> then</c><00:18:09.279><c> when</c><00:18:09.759><c> we</c><00:18:10.019><c> come</c><00:18:10.220><c> to</c><00:18:10.500><c> verse</c><00:18:11.059><c> 25.</c>

00:18:15.619 --> 00:18:17.740
Let's<00:18:16.380><c> go</c><00:18:16.500><c> back</c><00:18:16.740><c> to</c><00:18:16.859><c> verse</c><00:18:17.039><c> 24.</c>

00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:23.859
They<00:18:18.079><c> came</c><00:18:18.500><c> to</c><00:18:18.759><c> Capernaum</c><00:18:19.640><c> seeking</c><00:18:20.579><c> for</c><00:18:22.339><c> Jesus.</c>

00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:29.079
And<00:18:24.400><c> when</c><00:18:24.759><c> they</c><00:18:25.140><c> had</c><00:18:25.640><c> found</c><00:18:26.279><c> him,</c><00:18:28.259><c> they</c><00:18:28.480><c> said,</c>

00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:33.059
Rabbi,<00:18:31.200><c> whence</c><00:18:31.660><c> camest</c><00:18:32.059><c> thou?</c>

00:18:33.259 --> 00:18:38.720
And<00:18:33.920><c> what</c><00:18:34.400><c> the</c><00:18:34.839><c> record</c><00:18:35.200><c> is</c><00:18:36.140><c> implying,</c><00:18:36.720><c> I</c><00:18:36.940><c> think,</c><00:18:37.200><c> is</c><00:18:37.380><c> they</c><00:18:37.740><c> asked,</c>

00:18:38.980 --> 00:18:40.180
where<00:18:39.119><c> have</c><00:18:39.240><c> you</c><00:18:39.400><c> come</c><00:18:39.700><c> from?</c>

00:18:40.579 --> 00:18:42.700
And<00:18:40.740><c> do</c><00:18:40.859><c> you</c><00:18:40.859><c> know</c><00:18:40.940><c> what</c><00:18:41.039><c> the</c><00:18:41.200><c> real</c><00:18:41.460><c> answer</c><00:18:41.819><c> is?</c>

00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:44.740
I<00:18:43.160><c> came</c><00:18:43.279><c> down</c><00:18:43.539><c> from</c><00:18:43.799><c> heaven.</c>

00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:47.740
That's<00:18:45.519><c> what</c><00:18:45.619><c> they're</c><00:18:45.839><c> trying</c><00:18:46.039><c> to</c><00:18:46.180><c> get</c><00:18:46.279><c> them</c><00:18:46.440><c> to</c><00:18:46.660><c> realize.</c>

00:18:55.849 --> 00:18:58.599

00:18:59.220 --> 00:19:03.660
Notice<00:18:59.539><c> they're</c><00:19:01.500><c> seeking</c><00:19:01.980><c> for</c><00:19:02.319><c> Jesus</c><00:19:02.700><c> and</c><00:19:03.019><c> when</c><00:19:03.160><c> they</c><00:19:03.339><c> had</c>

00:19:20.539 --> 00:19:22.900

There'll<00:19:30.539><c> come</c><00:19:30.660><c> a</c><00:19:30.920><c> time</c><00:19:31.180><c> when</c><00:19:31.339><c> it's</c><00:19:31.539><c> too</c><00:19:31.819><c> late</c><00:19:31.980><c> to</c><00:19:32.279><c> find</c><00:19:32.500><c> him.</c>

00:19:35.220 --> 00:19:38.680
And<00:19:35.380><c> the</c><00:19:35.519><c> Lord</c><00:19:35.859><c> makes</c><00:19:36.480><c> that</c><00:19:36.880><c> point</c><00:19:37.259><c> in</c><00:19:37.759><c> John</c><00:19:38.019><c> chapter</c><00:19:38.400><c> 7.</c>

00:19:38.720 --> 00:19:43.319
John<00:19:38.980><c> chapter</c><00:19:39.279><c> 7</c><00:19:40.400><c> picks</c><00:19:40.819><c> up</c><00:19:41.200><c> the</c><00:19:41.799><c> water,</c><00:19:42.319><c> the</c><00:19:42.559><c> drinking</c><00:19:42.880><c> water</c>

aspect<00:19:43.880><c> of</c><00:19:44.059><c> it.</c>

00:19:44.220 --> 00:19:46.420
If<00:19:44.359><c> any</c><00:19:44.599><c> man</c><00:19:44.880><c> thirsts,</c><00:19:45.440><c> let</c><00:19:45.500><c> him</c><00:19:45.759><c> come</c><00:19:45.980><c> unto</c><00:19:46.140><c> me.</c>

00:19:46.420 --> 00:19:50.900
Oh,<00:19:47.140><c> every</c><00:19:47.299><c> one</c><00:19:47.500><c> that</c><00:19:47.740><c> thirsteth,</c><00:19:48.279><c> come</c><00:19:48.460><c> unto</c><00:19:48.660><c> me.</c>

00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:55.880
John<00:19:53.279><c> chapter</c><00:19:53.539><c> 7</c><00:19:53.819><c> verse</c><00:19:54.140><c> 34</c><00:19:54.759><c> says,</c>

00:19:55.980 --> 00:20:00.539
Ye<00:19:56.180><c> shall</c><00:19:56.500><c> seek</c><00:19:56.960><c> me</c><00:19:57.940><c> and</c><00:19:58.599><c> shall</c><00:19:58.880><c> not</c><00:19:59.220><c> find</c><00:19:59.539><c> me.</c>

00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:04.059
The<00:20:01.160><c> time</c><00:20:01.319><c> would</c><00:20:01.660><c> come</c><00:20:02.259><c> when</c><00:20:02.779><c> he</c><00:20:03.039><c> couldn't</c><00:20:03.279><c> be</c><00:20:03.660><c> found.</c>

00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:11.160
For<00:20:04.539><c> the</c><00:20:04.779><c> Jewish</c><00:20:05.019><c> people,</c><00:20:06.140><c> 80,</c><00:20:06.480><c> 70,</c><00:20:09.180><c> the</c><00:20:09.420><c> nation</c><00:20:09.839><c> was</c><00:20:10.559><c> swept</c><00:20:10.839><c> away.</c>

00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:13.220
I<00:20:11.319><c> think</c><00:20:11.440><c> that's</c><00:20:11.740><c> what</c><00:20:11.859><c> it's</c><00:20:12.180><c> referring</c><00:20:12.539><c> to</c><00:20:12.900><c> there.</c>

00:20:13.220 --> 00:20:17.700
But<00:20:14.259><c> of</c><00:20:14.519><c> course</c><00:20:14.660><c> for</c><00:20:14.839><c> all</c><00:20:15.039><c> of</c><00:20:15.160><c> us</c><00:20:15.380><c> there</c><00:20:15.700><c> will</c><00:20:15.960><c> come</c><00:20:16.160><c> a</c><00:20:16.380><c> time</c><00:20:17.000><c> when</c><00:20:17.559><c> it</c>

00:20:17.700 --> 00:20:19.259
is<00:20:17.900><c> too</c><00:20:18.140><c> late.</c>

00:20:21.579 --> 00:20:27.920
When<00:20:22.299><c> time</c><00:20:23.019><c> is</c><00:20:23.579><c> over,</c><00:20:25.420><c> the</c><00:20:25.539><c> day</c><00:20:25.660><c> of</c><00:20:25.859><c> opportunity</c><00:20:26.440><c> is</c><00:20:26.819><c> past.</c>

00:20:28.519 --> 00:20:33.180
When<00:20:29.240><c> our</c><00:20:29.720><c> probation</c><00:20:30.180><c> period</c><00:20:30.960><c> comes</c><00:20:31.660><c> to</c><00:20:31.900><c> an</c><00:20:32.039><c> end.</c>

00:20:33.799 --> 00:20:36.099
When<00:20:34.039><c> there</c><00:20:34.240><c> is</c><00:20:34.539><c> time</c><00:20:34.859><c> no</c><00:20:35.180><c> longer.</c>

00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:40.099
That's<00:20:37.779><c> a</c><00:20:37.920><c> salutary</c><00:20:38.279><c> thought,</c><00:20:38.619><c> isn't</c><00:20:38.779><c> it?</c>

00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:42.279
Salutary<00:20:41.299><c> thought.</c>

00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:44.240
And<00:20:42.759><c> we</c><00:20:42.900><c> don't</c><00:20:43.140><c> know</c><00:20:43.259><c> how</c><00:20:43.460><c> long</c><00:20:43.680><c> we</c><00:20:43.960><c> have.</c>

00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:46.279
We<00:20:44.519><c> don't</c><00:20:44.680><c> know</c><00:20:44.759><c> when</c><00:20:44.960><c> the</c><00:20:45.059><c> Lord</c><00:20:45.240><c> Jesus</c><00:20:45.559><c> Christ</c><00:20:45.779><c> is</c><00:20:45.940><c> going</c><00:20:46.059><c> to</c><00:20:46.200><c> come.</c>

00:20:46.420 --> 00:20:51.359
We<00:20:46.480><c> don't</c><00:20:46.720><c> know</c><00:20:46.880><c> when</c><00:20:47.140><c> we</c><00:20:47.799><c> individually</c><00:20:48.440><c> will</c><00:20:49.700><c> run</c><00:20:49.920><c> out</c><00:20:50.140><c> of</c><00:20:50.380><c> time.</c>

00:20:52.160 --> 00:20:53.539
So<00:20:52.380><c> we</c><00:20:52.519><c> have</c><00:20:52.700><c> to</c><00:20:52.859><c> be</c><00:20:53.059><c> vigilant.</c>

00:20:53.980 --> 00:20:54.920
We<00:20:54.079><c> have</c><00:20:54.279><c> to</c><00:20:54.440><c> be</c><00:20:54.640><c> awake.</c>

00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:59.039
We<00:20:55.200><c> have</c><00:20:55.440><c> to</c><00:20:56.099><c> be</c><00:20:56.319><c> motivated</c><00:20:56.940><c> day</c><00:20:57.359><c> by</c><00:20:57.700><c> day.</c>

00:21:00.059 --> 00:21:02.680
When<00:21:00.160><c> we</c><00:21:00.259><c> look</c><00:21:00.420><c> into</c><00:21:00.619><c> the</c><00:21:00.819><c> distance,</c><00:21:01.180><c> it's</c><00:21:01.339><c> too</c><00:21:01.640><c> hard</c><00:21:01.859><c> for</c><00:21:02.019><c> us.</c>

00:21:02.819 --> 00:21:06.259
We<00:21:03.099><c> can't</c><00:21:03.259><c> imagine</c><00:21:03.819><c> how</c><00:21:03.960><c> we're</c><00:21:04.160><c> going</c><00:21:04.259><c> to</c><00:21:04.460><c> cope</c><00:21:04.700><c> with</c><00:21:05.539><c> all</c><00:21:05.980><c> the</c>

00:21:06.259 --> 00:21:08.920
problems<00:21:06.440><c> we</c><00:21:06.680><c> can</c><00:21:07.579><c> see</c><00:21:08.119><c> looming</c><00:21:08.539><c> there.</c>

00:21:09.220 --> 00:21:10.519
We<00:21:09.480><c> don't</c><00:21:09.660><c> know</c><00:21:09.759><c> what</c><00:21:09.880><c> we're</c><00:21:10.039><c> going</c><00:21:10.140><c> to</c><00:21:10.299><c> do.</c>

00:21:10.519 --> 00:21:12.559
We've<00:21:11.039><c> got</c><00:21:11.099><c> to</c><00:21:11.160><c> live</c><00:21:11.319><c> day</c><00:21:11.599><c> by</c><00:21:11.859><c> day.</c>

00:21:12.720 --> 00:21:15.380
Sufficient<00:21:13.279><c> unto</c><00:21:13.539><c> the</c><00:21:13.779><c> day.</c>

00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:17.819
Bread<00:21:16.500><c> for</c><00:21:16.819><c> the</c><00:21:17.039><c> day.</c>

00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:20.579
That's<00:21:18.940><c> what</c><00:21:19.059><c> we</c><00:21:19.279><c> need</c><00:21:19.440><c> to</c><00:21:19.680><c> do.</c>

00:21:22.059 --> 00:21:24.960
What<00:21:22.259><c> is</c><00:21:22.779><c> Isaiah</c><00:21:23.140><c> 55</c><00:21:23.779><c> saying</c><00:21:24.079><c> then?</c>

00:21:25.500 --> 00:21:27.799
It's<00:21:25.819><c> got</c><00:21:25.920><c> its</c><00:21:26.140><c> own</c><00:21:26.339><c> wider</c><00:21:26.559><c> context.</c>

00:21:29.039 --> 00:21:30.420
Take<00:21:29.220><c> away</c><00:21:29.400><c> the</c><00:21:29.579><c> chapter</c><00:21:29.920><c> division.</c>

00:21:30.740 --> 00:21:34.960
Go<00:21:30.839><c> just</c><00:21:31.119><c> back</c><00:21:31.400><c> into</c><00:21:31.660><c> chapter</c><00:21:32.039><c> 54,</c><00:21:33.420><c> verse</c><00:21:33.759><c> 13.</c>

00:21:35.339 --> 00:21:37.759
That's<00:21:35.680><c> quoted</c><00:21:35.940><c> in</c><00:21:36.259><c> chapter</c><00:21:36.640><c> 6.</c>

00:21:38.279 --> 00:21:42.019
It's<00:21:38.960><c> not</c><00:21:39.099><c> as</c><00:21:39.380><c> if</c><00:21:39.920><c> this</c><00:21:40.380><c> is</c><00:21:40.619><c> hard</c><00:21:40.819><c> to</c><00:21:41.140><c> find.</c>

00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:44.859
John<00:21:42.420><c> chapter</c><00:21:42.700><c> 6</c><00:21:42.940><c> actually</c><00:21:43.339><c> makes</c><00:21:43.660><c> that</c><00:21:44.059><c> cross</c><00:21:44.380><c> reference</c>

00:21:44.859 --> 00:21:46.680
for<00:21:45.180><c> us.</c>

00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:50.960
And<00:21:48.299><c> all</c><00:21:48.480><c> thy</c><00:21:48.680><c> children</c><00:21:49.160><c> shall</c><00:21:49.359><c> be</c><00:21:49.660><c> taught</c><00:21:50.059><c> of</c><00:21:50.420><c> the</c><00:21:50.640><c> Lord.</c>

00:21:51.460 --> 00:21:59.359
That's<00:21:51.859><c> in</c><00:21:52.079><c> John</c><00:21:52.559><c> chapter</c><00:21:52.920><c> 6</c><00:21:53.740><c> and</c><00:21:55.539><c> verse</c><00:21:56.779><c> 45.</c>

00:21:59.900 --> 00:22:04.799
So<00:22:00.559><c> it's</c><00:22:00.960><c> inviting</c><00:22:01.319><c> us</c><00:22:01.579><c> to</c><00:22:01.779><c> go</c><00:22:01.960><c> back</c><00:22:02.200><c> and</c><00:22:02.339><c> have</c><00:22:02.500><c> a</c><00:22:02.579><c> look</c><00:22:02.700><c> at</c><00:22:02.859><c> that</c><00:22:03.700><c> section</c><00:22:04.059><c> of</c><00:22:04.319><c> scripture.</c>

00:22:04.799 --> 00:22:08.940
And<00:22:05.480><c> just</c><00:22:05.759><c> in</c><00:22:06.019><c> passing,</c><00:22:07.000><c> Jesus</c><00:22:07.359><c> walks</c><00:22:07.720><c> on</c><00:22:07.940><c> the</c><00:22:08.099><c> water</c><00:22:08.420><c> in</c><00:22:08.700><c> John</c>

00:22:08.940 --> 00:22:10.759
chapter<00:22:09.299><c> 6.</c>

00:22:11.019 --> 00:22:12.940
The<00:22:11.180><c> disciples</c><00:22:11.660><c> are</c><00:22:11.880><c> in</c><00:22:12.039><c> a</c><00:22:12.140><c> boat.</c>

00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:14.359
And<00:22:13.599><c> what's</c><00:22:13.880><c> happening</c><00:22:14.059><c> to</c><00:22:14.279><c> them?</c>

00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:16.839
Verse<00:22:14.680><c> 11</c><00:22:15.019><c> of</c><00:22:15.220><c> Isaiah</c><00:22:15.640><c> 54.</c>

00:22:16.940 --> 00:22:18.099
They're<00:22:17.079><c> tossed</c><00:22:17.299><c> with</c><00:22:17.539><c> tempest.</c>

00:22:18.440 --> 00:22:21.180
So<00:22:18.759><c> the</c><00:22:19.579><c> setting</c><00:22:19.859><c> is</c><00:22:20.359><c> there.</c>

00:22:22.099 --> 00:22:24.220
We've<00:22:22.519><c> understood</c><00:22:22.960><c> that</c><00:22:23.200><c> John</c><00:22:23.400><c> is</c><00:22:23.640><c> talking</c><00:22:23.759><c> about</c><00:22:23.960><c> being</c>

00:22:24.220 --> 00:22:25.000
born<00:22:24.559><c> again.</c>

00:22:25.180 --> 00:22:27.200
