That's<00:05:28.100><c> the</c><00:05:28.300><c> major</c><00:05:28.579><c> category</c><00:05:29.019><c> that</c><00:05:29.220><c> people</c>

00:05:29.420 --> 00:05:32.120
and<00:05:29.740><c> young</c><00:05:29.899><c> people</c><00:05:30.120><c> in</c><00:05:30.220><c> Australia</c><00:05:30.639><c> put</c><00:05:30.839><c> themselves</c><00:05:31.259><c> into.</c>

00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:35.720
And<00:05:33.220><c> that's</c><00:05:33.459><c> a</c><00:05:33.500><c> product</c><00:05:33.819><c> of</c><00:05:34.060><c> humanism</c><00:05:34.540><c> and</c><00:05:34.800><c> postmodernism.</c>

00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:38.899
And<00:05:36.639><c> we're</c><00:05:36.879><c> gonna</c><00:05:37.000><c> see</c><00:05:37.279><c> that</c><00:05:37.420><c> it</c><00:05:37.500><c> was</c><00:05:38.180><c> common</c><00:05:38.420><c> to</c><00:05:38.699><c> man</c>

00:05:38.899 --> 00:05:40.899
back<00:05:39.139><c> in</c><00:05:39.319><c> the</c><00:05:39.480><c> times</c><00:05:39.699><c> of</c><00:05:39.920><c> Moses.</c>

00:05:41.939 --> 00:05:45.399
Now,<00:05:43.180><c> first</c><00:05:43.459><c> we</c><00:05:43.600><c> must</c><00:05:43.779><c> do</c><00:05:43.920><c> a</c><00:05:44.100><c> history</c><00:05:44.300><c> lesson</c><00:05:44.540><c> on</c><00:05:44.800><c> Reuben</c><00:05:45.040><c> and</c><00:05:45.319><c> Gad</c>

00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:48.699
because<00:05:45.819><c> Reuben</c><00:05:46.180><c> made</c><00:05:46.420><c> a</c><00:05:46.660><c> very</c><00:05:47.060><c> poor</c><00:05:47.259><c> start</c><00:05:47.540><c> in</c><00:05:47.759><c> history.</c>

00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:51.199
Now<00:05:49.100><c> bear</c><00:05:49.220><c> in</c><00:05:49.439><c> mind,</c><00:05:50.199><c> when</c><00:05:50.339><c> we</c><00:05:50.600><c> start</c><00:05:50.740><c> the</c><00:05:50.980><c> chapter</c>

00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:51.959
it's<00:05:51.379><c> Reuben</c><00:05:51.660><c> and</c><00:05:51.839><c> Gad.</c>

00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:54.800
Later<00:05:52.259><c> on</c><00:05:52.459><c> we</c><00:05:52.620><c> find</c><00:05:52.800><c> Manasseh</c><00:05:53.300><c> comes</c><00:05:53.519><c> into</c><00:05:53.720><c> the</c><00:05:53.879><c> picture</c>

00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:57.459
because<00:05:55.800><c> they</c><00:05:56.060><c> were</c><00:05:56.220><c> the</c><00:05:56.459><c> silent</c><00:05:56.779><c> sympathizers</c>

00:05:57.459 --> 00:06:00.100
behind<00:05:57.879><c> this</c><00:05:58.220><c> change</c><00:05:58.480><c> to</c><00:05:58.699><c> ecclesial</c><00:05:59.100><c> policy.</c>

00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:02.899
When<00:06:01.040><c> they</c><00:06:01.259><c> saw</c><00:06:01.360><c> that</c><00:06:01.519><c> Reuben</c><00:06:01.720><c> and</c><00:06:01.939><c> Gad</c><00:06:02.040><c> were</c><00:06:02.199><c> making</c><00:06:02.480><c> progress</c>

00:06:02.899 --> 00:06:04.620
they<00:06:03.139><c> jumped</c><00:06:03.439><c> on</c><00:06:03.740><c> board.</c>

00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:07.879
So<00:06:05.160><c> we</c><00:06:05.600><c> have</c><00:06:05.779><c> three</c><00:06:06.100><c> tribes</c><00:06:06.639><c> that</c><00:06:07.439><c> are</c><00:06:07.639><c> interested</c>

00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:09.459
in<00:06:08.040><c> this</c><00:06:08.220><c> particular</c><00:06:08.639><c> matter,</c>

00:06:09.500 --> 00:06:12.699
but<00:06:09.639><c> they</c><00:06:10.019><c> made</c><00:06:10.220><c> a</c><00:06:10.519><c> bad</c><00:06:10.800><c> start,</c><00:06:11.120><c> particularly</c><00:06:11.800><c> Reuben.</c>

00:06:13.699 --> 00:06:15.699
Now<00:06:13.959><c> you</c><00:06:14.060><c> know</c><00:06:14.279><c> the</c><00:06:14.519><c> story,</c><00:06:14.660><c> I'm</c><00:06:14.800><c> gonna</c><00:06:14.939><c> quote</c><00:06:15.180><c> these</c><00:06:15.480><c> to</c><00:06:15.600><c> you.</c>

00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:17.360
I<00:06:15.740><c> want</c><00:06:15.879><c> you</c><00:06:16.040><c> to</c><00:06:16.199><c> go</c><00:06:16.300><c> to</c><00:06:16.500><c> Genesis</c><00:06:16.800><c> 49,</c>

00:06:17.420 --> 00:06:20.899
but<00:06:17.899><c> we</c><00:06:18.300><c> start</c><00:06:18.439><c> in</c><00:06:18.639><c> Genesis</c><00:06:18.959><c> 35</c><00:06:19.579><c> with</c><00:06:19.779><c> Reuben's</c>

00:06:20.899 --> 00:06:23.899
disgraceful<00:06:21.600><c> taking</c><00:06:21.939><c> of</c><00:06:22.180><c> his</c><00:06:22.439><c> father's</c><00:06:22.939><c> handmate.</c>

00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:26.819
Very<00:06:24.680><c> likely</c><00:06:25.000><c> an</c><00:06:25.300><c> abuse</c><00:06:25.519><c> of</c><00:06:25.740><c> power</c><00:06:26.040><c> within</c><00:06:26.279><c> the</c><00:06:26.560><c> family.</c>

00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:29.680
The<00:06:27.120><c> oldest</c><00:06:27.420><c> son</c><00:06:27.720><c> putting</c><00:06:27.980><c> pressure</c><00:06:28.360><c> on</c><00:06:28.540><c> the</c><00:06:28.759><c> handmate.</c>

00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:32.720
But<00:06:30.019><c> as</c><00:06:30.220><c> we</c><00:06:30.360><c> know</c><00:06:30.480><c> from</c><00:06:30.660><c> the</c><00:06:30.860><c> times</c><00:06:31.019><c> of</c><00:06:31.279><c> David</c><00:06:31.519><c> and</c><00:06:31.699><c> Adonijah,</c>

00:06:32.860 --> 00:06:35.660
taking<00:06:33.339><c> your</c><00:06:33.720><c> father's</c><00:06:34.220><c> handmate</c><00:06:34.579><c> or</c><00:06:34.800><c> wife</c>

00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:39.199
was<00:06:36.519><c> a</c><00:06:36.860><c> grasp</c><00:06:37.180><c> at</c><00:06:37.360><c> all</c><00:06:37.480><c> the</c><00:06:37.699><c> authority</c><00:06:37.959><c> of</c><00:06:38.120><c> the</c><00:06:38.339><c> family.</c>

00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:42.339
And<00:06:39.959><c> that's</c><00:06:40.120><c> how</c><00:06:40.339><c> Jacob</c><00:06:40.660><c> saw</c><00:06:40.879><c> it,</c><00:06:41.000><c> it</c><00:06:41.040><c> was</c><00:06:41.180><c> an</c><00:06:41.300><c> act</c><00:06:41.439><c> of</c><00:06:41.680><c> defiance,</c>

00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:44.660
it<00:06:42.879><c> was</c><00:06:43.079><c> an</c><00:06:43.160><c> act</c><00:06:43.379><c> of</c><00:06:43.639><c> challenge.</c>

00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.860
Maybe<00:06:46.600><c> it</c><00:06:46.740><c> was</c><00:06:46.920><c> done</c><00:06:47.120><c> by</c><00:06:47.480><c> Reuben</c><00:06:47.639><c> because</c><00:06:48.240><c> his</c><00:06:48.639><c> father</c>

00:06:48.860 --> 00:06:52.060
was<00:06:49.100><c> already</c><00:06:49.439><c> showing</c><00:06:49.759><c> favoritism</c><00:06:50.420><c> to</c><00:06:50.660><c> Joseph</c><00:06:50.980><c> and</c><00:06:51.199><c> Benjamin.</c>

00:06:52.139 --> 00:06:54.300
Whatever<00:06:52.439><c> the</c><00:06:52.680><c> motive</c><00:06:52.879><c> that</c><00:06:53.060><c> he</c><00:06:53.180><c> did</c><00:06:53.360><c> it,</c><00:06:53.620><c> Reuben</c><00:06:53.939><c> did</c><00:06:54.120><c> it.</c>

00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:56.060
He<00:06:54.560><c> dishonored</c><00:06:54.879><c> his</c><00:06:55.180><c> father.</c>

00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:58.300
It<00:06:56.379><c> was</c><00:06:56.620><c> a</c><00:06:56.759><c> great</c><00:06:56.939><c> family</c><00:06:57.360><c> shame.</c>

00:06:58.500 --> 00:07:01.300
And<00:06:58.720><c> Jacob</c><00:06:59.019><c> never</c><00:06:59.519><c> ever</c><00:07:00.060><c> forgot</c><00:07:00.439><c> it.</c>

00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:04.120
It<00:07:01.779><c> came</c><00:07:02.100><c> up</c><00:07:02.399><c> time</c><00:07:02.680><c> and</c><00:07:02.860><c> time</c><00:07:03.040><c> again.</c>

00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:07.720
He<00:07:04.220><c> gave</c><00:07:04.500><c> Joseph</c><00:07:05.000><c> the</c><00:07:05.300><c> tunic</c><00:07:05.579><c> of</c><00:07:05.860><c> palms,</c><00:07:06.220><c> the</c><00:07:06.339><c> coat</c><00:07:06.480><c> of</c><00:07:06.639><c> many</c><00:07:06.860><c> colors.</c>

00:07:08.300 --> 00:07:10.399
The<00:07:08.480><c> garment</c><00:07:08.720><c> of</c><00:07:08.879><c> the</c><00:07:09.060><c> family</c><00:07:09.379><c> priesthood</c><00:07:09.759><c> was</c><00:07:10.000><c> passed</c><00:07:10.259><c> on.</c>

00:07:10.459 --> 00:07:11.860
It<00:07:10.519><c> should</c><00:07:10.680><c> have</c><00:07:10.839><c> been</c><00:07:11.040><c> Reuben's</c><00:07:11.480><c> by</c><00:07:11.699><c> right</c>

00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.779
When<00:07:16.459><c> Joseph</c><00:07:16.819><c> was</c><00:07:17.079><c> sold</c><00:07:17.259><c> by</c><00:07:17.480><c> his</c><00:07:17.680><c> brethren,</c><00:07:18.079><c> Reuben</c><00:07:18.379><c> failed</c>

00:07:20.420 --> 00:07:24.620
He<00:07:20.579><c> left</c><00:07:21.120><c> Joseph</c><00:07:21.860><c> in</c><00:07:22.240><c> the</c><00:07:22.439><c> hands</c><00:07:22.699><c> of</c><00:07:22.939><c> his</c><00:07:23.139><c> brothers</c><00:07:23.399><c> and</c><00:07:23.579><c> went</c><00:07:23.740><c> away.</c>

00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:29.120

00:07:29.300 --> 00:07:33.160
He<00:07:29.779><c> did</c><00:07:30.000><c> not</c><00:07:30.259><c> go</c><00:07:30.500><c> after</c><00:07:30.720><c> the</c><00:07:30.920><c> Ishmaelites</c><00:07:31.379><c> to</c><00:07:31.600><c> buy</c><00:07:31.759><c> Joseph</c><00:07:32.160><c> back.</c>

00:10:56.100 --> 00:10:58.320
The<00:10:56.379><c> family</c><00:10:56.659><c> inheritance</c><00:10:57.019><c> was</c><00:10:57.220><c> given</c><00:10:57.399><c> to</c><00:10:57.600><c> him.</c>

00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:00.799
The<00:10:58.720><c> kingship</c><00:10:59.080><c> went</c><00:10:59.299><c> to</c><00:10:59.519><c> Judah,</c><00:10:59.720><c> the</c><00:10:59.960><c> priesthood</c><00:11:00.299><c> to</c><00:11:00.519><c> Levi,</c>

00:11:05.740 --> 00:11:09.139
Then<00:11:05.960><c> we</c><00:11:06.159><c> come</c><00:11:06.360><c> down</c><00:11:07.639><c> to</c><00:11:08.240><c> Deuteronomy</c><00:11:08.659><c> 27.</c>

because<00:12:08.480><c> Reuben</c><00:12:08.779><c> had</c><00:12:09.000><c> made</c><00:12:09.259><c> a</c><00:12:09.559><c> very</c><00:12:09.899><c> poor</c><00:12:10.120><c> start</c><00:12:10.399><c> in</c><00:12:10.620><c> history.</c>

00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:49.080
They<00:12:46.440><c> can</c><00:12:46.639><c> see</c><00:12:46.799><c> the</c><00:12:46.919><c> land</c><00:12:47.100><c> of</c><00:12:47.299><c> Abraham</c><00:12:47.639><c> across</c><00:12:48.039><c> the</c><00:12:48.259><c> waters.</c>

00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:53.120
They<00:12:49.679><c> have</c><00:12:49.960><c> defeated</c><00:12:50.460><c> all</c><00:12:50.879><c> the</c><00:12:51.059><c> nations</c><00:12:51.419><c> on</c><00:12:51.679><c> the</c><00:12:51.840><c> east</c><00:12:52.019><c> of</c><00:12:52.259><c> Jordan.</c>

00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:56.899

00:12:56.940 --> 00:12:58.539
The<00:12:57.080><c> Midianites</c><00:12:57.480><c> have</c><00:12:57.639><c> been</c><00:12:57.860><c> sorted</c><00:12:58.039><c> out.</c>

00:12:59.019 --> 00:13:02.639
In<00:12:59.080><c> the</c><00:12:59.259><c> battle</c><00:12:59.440><c> against</c><00:12:59.740><c> Midian</c><00:13:00.039><c> in</c><00:13:00.179><c> chapter</c><00:13:00.440><c> 31</c><00:13:00.860><c> in</c><00:13:01.080><c> verse</c><00:13:01.299><c> 49,</c>

00:13:02.740 --> 00:13:05.059
when<00:13:02.980><c> Phineas</c><00:13:03.500><c> led</c><00:13:03.740><c> the</c><00:13:03.980><c> battle,</c>

00:13:06.220 --> 00:13:07.860
remarkably<00:13:06.600><c> it</c><00:13:06.899><c> says</c><00:13:07.019><c> in</c><00:13:07.179><c> verse</c><00:13:07.419><c> 49,</c>

00:13:07.980 --> 00:13:09.860
thy<00:13:08.200><c> servants</c><00:13:08.500><c> have</c><00:13:08.679><c> taken</c><00:13:08.879><c> the</c><00:13:09.100><c> sum</c><00:13:09.220><c> of</c><00:13:09.340><c> the</c><00:13:09.460><c> men</c><00:13:09.559><c> of</c><00:13:09.700><c> war</c>

00:13:09.860 --> 00:13:13.460
which<00:13:10.039><c> were</c><00:13:10.159><c> under</c><00:13:10.320><c> our</c><00:13:10.600><c> charge,</c><00:13:11.740><c> and</c><00:13:11.879><c> we're</c><00:13:12.059><c> not</c><00:13:12.220><c> missing</c><00:13:12.519><c> one.</c>

00:13:13.940 --> 00:13:15.940
They<00:13:14.320><c> had</c><00:13:14.559><c> gone</c><00:13:14.779><c> to</c><00:13:14.940><c> war</c><00:13:15.100><c> against</c><00:13:15.360><c> the</c><00:13:15.500><c> Midianites</c>

00:13:15.940 --> 00:13:18.779

00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:21.440
That's<00:13:20.000><c> a</c><00:13:20.100><c> miracle</c><00:13:20.340><c> in</c><00:13:20.539><c> itself.</c>

00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:24.840
So<00:13:22.220><c> all</c><00:13:22.399><c> of</c><00:13:22.480><c> the</c><00:13:22.580><c> east</c><00:13:22.700><c> of</c><00:13:22.899><c> Jordan</c><00:13:23.120><c> is</c><00:13:23.360><c> now</c><00:13:23.559><c> subdued.</c>

00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:27.000
They're<00:13:25.200><c> preparing</c><00:13:25.480><c> to</c><00:13:25.740><c> cross</c><00:13:25.980><c> over.</c>

00:13:27.860 --> 00:13:30.600

00:13:30.600 --> 00:13:34.779
which<00:13:31.139><c> appears</c><00:13:31.559><c> almost</c><00:13:32.039><c> insignificant</c><00:13:32.860><c> in</c><00:13:33.500><c> what</c><00:13:33.639><c> it</c><00:13:33.779><c> was</c><00:13:33.980><c> asking.</c>

00:13:35.820 --> 00:13:37.740
It<00:13:36.019><c> occupies</c><00:13:36.440><c> a</c><00:13:36.620><c> whole</c><00:13:36.799><c> chapter.</c>

00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:41.200
It<00:13:38.600><c> is</c><00:13:38.779><c> referred</c><00:13:39.080><c> to</c><00:13:39.299><c> in</c><00:13:39.500><c> detail</c><00:13:39.919><c> four</c><00:13:40.379><c> more</c><00:13:40.659><c> times</c>

00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:43.620
in<00:13:41.740><c> the</c><00:13:41.940><c> record</c><00:13:42.139><c> of</c><00:13:42.320><c> the</c><00:13:42.440><c> Old</c><00:13:42.620><c> Testament.</c>

00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:47.519
Now<00:13:44.279><c> you</c><00:13:44.740><c> contrast</c><00:13:45.279><c> that</c><00:13:45.600><c> to</c><00:13:45.759><c> the</c><00:13:45.980><c> 38</c><00:13:46.340><c> years</c>

00:13:47.659 --> 00:13:50.620
of<00:13:47.940><c> which</c><00:13:48.100><c> only</c><00:13:48.399><c> two</c><00:13:48.600><c> or</c><00:13:48.799><c> three</c><00:13:49.080><c> incidents</c><00:13:49.399><c> are</c><00:13:49.720><c> recorded.</c>

00:13:51.120 --> 00:13:52.440
This<00:13:51.379><c> one,</c><00:13:51.720><c> a</c><00:13:51.879><c> whole</c><00:13:52.080><c> chapter</c>

00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:57.039
and<00:13:52.799><c> four</c><00:13:53.879><c> complicated</c><00:13:54.759><c> references</c><00:13:55.299><c> later</c><00:13:55.620><c> on</c><00:13:55.879><c> to</c><00:13:56.059><c> it.</c>

00:13:57.340 --> 00:13:59.779
This<00:13:57.559><c> is</c><00:13:57.759><c> an</c><00:13:58.039><c> important</c><00:13:58.440><c> incident</c><00:13:58.799><c> that</c><00:13:59.000><c> God</c><00:13:59.159><c> has</c><00:13:59.440><c> recorded</c>

00:13:59.779 --> 00:14:00.600
for<00:14:00.039><c> us.</c>

00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:03.639
So<00:14:01.240><c> let's</c><00:14:01.340><c> just</c><00:14:01.440><c> see</c><00:14:01.480><c> what</c><00:14:01.700><c> happens</c><00:14:01.940><c> in</c><00:14:02.139><c> verse</c><00:14:02.360><c> one.</c>

00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:08.059
The<00:14:06.100><c> children</c><00:14:06.360><c> of</c><00:14:06.500><c> Reuben</c><00:14:06.659><c> and</c><00:14:08.059><c> Gad</c>

00:14:08.059 --> 00:14:10.940
specialized<00:14:08.860><c> in</c><00:14:09.360><c> the</c><00:14:09.580><c> keeping</c><00:14:09.820><c> of</c><00:14:10.200><c> cattle.</c>

00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:13.899
And<00:14:11.840><c> having</c><00:14:12.139><c> conquered</c><00:14:12.519><c> and</c><00:14:12.700><c> walked</c><00:14:12.919><c> through</c><00:14:13.139><c> the</c><00:14:13.299><c> eastern</c><00:14:13.539><c> land,</c>

00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:17.919
they<00:14:14.259><c> decided</c><00:14:14.759><c> that</c><00:14:15.000><c> they</c><00:14:15.220><c> were</c><00:14:15.759><c> very</c><00:14:16.320><c> good</c><00:14:16.480><c> at</c><00:14:16.700><c> keeping</c><00:14:16.960><c> cattle.</c>

00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:23.320
And<00:14:21.960><c> this</c><00:14:22.159><c> land</c><00:14:22.240><c> was</c><00:14:22.399><c> a</c><00:14:22.500><c> good</c><00:14:22.620><c> place</c><00:14:22.860><c> for</c><00:14:23.000><c> their</c><00:14:23.179><c> cattle.</c>

00:14:23.379 --> 00:14:26.799
So<00:14:23.539><c> it</c><00:14:23.679><c> seems</c><00:14:23.960><c> to</c><00:14:24.179><c> be</c><00:14:24.360><c> a</c><00:14:24.620><c> very</c><00:14:25.100><c> innocuous</c><00:14:25.679><c> request.</c>

00:14:27.899 --> 00:14:29.019
But<00:14:28.059><c> you</c><00:14:28.200><c> see,</c><00:14:28.299><c> it's</c><00:14:28.539><c> a</c><00:14:28.700><c> change,</c>

00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:31.539
a<00:14:29.340><c> dramatic</c><00:14:29.600><c> change</c><00:14:29.960><c> to</c><00:14:30.139><c> ecclesial</c><00:14:30.559><c> policy.</c>

00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:34.840
Moses<00:14:32.559><c> had</c><00:14:32.860><c> said</c><00:14:33.080><c> that</c><00:14:33.320><c> everybody</c><00:14:33.700><c> must</c><00:14:33.940><c> go</c><00:14:34.220><c> over</c><00:14:34.480><c> Jordan</c>

00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:38.039
and<00:14:35.159><c> fight</c><00:14:35.700><c> until</c><00:14:36.500><c> all</c><00:14:36.799><c> the</c><00:14:37.019><c> Canaanites</c><00:14:37.360><c> have</c><00:14:37.500><c> been</c><00:14:37.700><c> defeated</c>

00:14:38.039 --> 00:14:40.000
before<00:14:38.440><c> they</c><00:14:38.659><c> get</c><00:14:38.799><c> their</c><00:14:39.059><c> inheritance.</c>

00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:42.600
They<00:14:40.220><c> wanna</c><00:14:40.460><c> get</c><00:14:40.620><c> their</c><00:14:40.820><c> inheritance</c><00:14:41.159><c> right</c><00:14:41.460><c> now.</c>

00:14:43.399 --> 00:14:46.600
In<00:14:43.440><c> verse</c><00:14:43.659><c> 33,</c><00:14:44.240><c> you</c><00:14:44.279><c> find</c><00:14:44.519><c> that</c><00:14:44.720><c> the</c><00:14:44.899><c> Manassehites</c><00:14:45.539><c> join</c><00:14:45.899><c> in</c>

00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:49.039
because<00:14:47.139><c> Moses</c><00:14:47.539><c> says</c><00:14:48.019><c> he</c><00:14:48.379><c> gave</c><00:14:48.679><c> to</c><00:14:48.860><c> them,</c>

00:14:49.139 --> 00:14:50.360
to<00:14:49.179><c> the</c><00:14:49.340><c> children</c><00:14:49.580><c> of</c><00:14:49.860><c> Gad</c><00:14:49.940><c> and</c><00:14:50.139><c> Reuben</c>

00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:53.039
and<00:14:50.840><c> the</c><00:14:51.120><c> half</c><00:14:51.299><c> tribe</c><00:14:51.480><c> of</c><00:14:51.700><c> Manasseh,</c>

00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:55.039
the<00:14:53.320><c> kingdom</c><00:14:53.580><c> of</c><00:14:53.860><c> Sihon</c><00:14:54.139><c> and</c><00:14:54.340><c> Oak.</c>

00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:58.379
So<00:14:56.600><c> the</c><00:14:57.039><c> Manassehites</c><00:14:57.559><c> were</c><00:14:57.759><c> waiting</c><00:14:58.000><c> behind</c>

00:14:58.379 --> 00:15:00.139
to<00:14:58.539><c> see</c><00:14:58.679><c> what</c><00:14:58.899><c> Reuben</c><00:14:59.120><c> and</c><00:14:59.299><c> Gad</c><00:14:59.419><c> would</c><00:14:59.580><c> get</c><00:14:59.759><c> away</c><00:14:59.960><c> with,</c>

00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:02.159
but<00:15:00.279><c> they</c><00:15:00.480><c> were</c><00:15:00.639><c> there</c><00:15:00.879><c> too.</c>

00:15:04.059 --> 00:15:06.120
Then<00:15:04.259><c> verse</c><00:15:04.759><c> two,</c><00:15:05.360><c> they</c><00:15:05.480><c> come</c><00:15:05.700><c> to</c><00:15:05.919><c> Moses</c>

00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:07.100
and<00:15:06.259><c> they</c><00:15:06.480><c> make</c><00:15:06.600><c> their</c><00:15:06.799><c> request.</c>

00:15:07.100 --> 00:15:09.940
We've<00:15:07.299><c> seen</c><00:15:07.539><c> this</c><00:15:07.799><c> land,</c><00:15:08.200><c> it's</c><00:15:08.279><c> a</c><00:15:08.399><c> beautiful</c><00:15:08.620><c> country</c><00:15:08.940><c> for</c><00:15:09.139><c> cattle.</c>

00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:10.980
We've<00:15:10.279><c> got</c><00:15:10.379><c> lots</c><00:15:10.580><c> of</c><00:15:10.860><c> cattle.</c>

00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:13.039
It's<00:15:11.200><c> very</c><00:15:11.419><c> logical</c><00:15:11.759><c> that</c><00:15:11.899><c> we</c><00:15:12.039><c> should</c><00:15:12.220><c> not</c><00:15:12.399><c> go</c><00:15:12.600><c> over</c><00:15:12.820><c> Jordan,</c>

00:15:13.059 --> 00:15:14.620
but<00:15:13.259><c> stay</c><00:15:13.519><c> here.</c>

00:15:16.019 --> 00:15:18.200
And<00:15:16.259><c> it</c><00:15:16.419><c> seems</c><00:15:16.659><c> like</c><00:15:16.879><c> a</c><00:15:17.080><c> sensible</c><00:15:17.419><c> request,</c><00:15:17.840><c> doesn't</c><00:15:18.059><c> it?</c>

00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:20.120
A<00:15:18.399><c> fairly</c><00:15:18.600><c> innocuous</c><00:15:19.080><c> request.</c>

00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:22.799
But<00:15:20.940><c> there's</c><00:15:21.220><c> a</c><00:15:21.419><c> sting</c><00:15:21.539><c> in</c><00:15:21.740><c> the</c><00:15:21.940><c> tail.</c>

00:15:23.539 --> 00:15:25.840
And<00:15:23.679><c> the</c><00:15:23.879><c> sting</c><00:15:24.019><c> there</c><00:15:24.200><c> is</c><00:15:24.340><c> in</c><00:15:24.460><c> verse</c><00:15:24.659><c> five.</c>

00:15:26.220 --> 00:15:30.539
By<00:15:26.460><c> the</c><00:15:26.740><c> way,</c><00:15:28.379><c> it</c><00:15:28.559><c> means</c><00:15:28.799><c> that</c><00:15:28.960><c> we</c><00:15:29.059><c> won't</c><00:15:29.179><c> go</c><00:15:29.360><c> over</c><00:15:29.539><c> Jordan.</c>

00:15:31.879 --> 00:15:34.080
And<00:15:32.279><c> Moses</c><00:15:32.679><c> reacts.</c>

00:15:35.539 --> 00:15:37.779
You<00:15:36.059><c> see,</c><00:15:36.679><c> the</c><00:15:36.740><c> whole</c><00:15:37.000><c> of</c><00:15:37.120><c> Ecclesia</c><00:15:37.360><c> had</c><00:15:37.620><c> fought</c>

00:15:37.779 --> 00:15:39.700
to<00:15:38.039><c> conquer</c><00:15:38.259><c> the</c><00:15:38.480><c> east</c><00:15:38.679><c> of</c><00:15:38.840><c> Jordan.</c>

00:15:40.379 --> 00:15:42.779
And<00:15:40.639><c> now</c><00:15:40.899><c> they're</c><00:15:41.200><c> opting</c><00:15:41.500><c> out.</c>

00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:46.580
Now<00:15:44.159><c> the</c><00:15:44.340><c> Moses</c><00:15:44.620><c> reaction</c><00:15:45.080><c> from</c><00:15:45.279><c> verse</c><00:15:45.500><c> six</c><00:15:45.779><c> to</c><00:15:45.960><c> verse</c><00:15:46.139><c> 15</c>

00:15:46.580 --> 00:15:52.080
that<00:15:46.759><c> we</c><00:15:46.980><c> read</c><00:15:47.259><c> is</c><00:15:48.360><c> intense,</c><00:15:49.580><c> it's</c><00:15:49.860><c> strong,</c><00:15:50.360><c> and</c><00:15:51.019><c> it's</c><00:15:51.320><c> heated.</c>

00:15:52.580 --> 00:15:53.899
It's<00:15:52.840><c> a</c><00:15:52.980><c> tirade.</c>

00:15:54.779 --> 00:15:56.519
If<00:15:55.000><c> we'd</c><00:15:55.240><c> been</c><00:15:55.440><c> standing</c><00:15:55.779><c> next</c><00:15:56.019><c> to</c><00:15:56.220><c> Moses</c>

00:15:56.519 --> 00:15:59.279
while<00:15:56.759><c> he</c><00:15:56.980><c> sounds</c><00:15:57.240><c> off</c><00:15:57.559><c> these</c><00:15:57.899><c> nine</c><00:15:58.200><c> verses,</c>

00:16:00.659 --> 00:16:02.259
I<00:16:01.100><c> reckon</c><00:16:01.259><c> most</c><00:16:01.519><c> of</c><00:16:01.659><c> us</c><00:16:01.720><c> would</c><00:16:01.879><c> have</c><00:16:02.039><c> thought,</c>

00:16:02.419 --> 00:16:03.559
well,<00:16:02.899><c> I</c><00:16:03.139><c> thought</c><00:16:03.320><c> he</c><00:16:03.460><c> was</c><00:16:03.559><c> a</c><00:16:03.559><c> bad</c><00:16:03.559><c> guy,</c>

a<00:16:03.740><c> meek</c><00:16:03.960><c> and</c><00:16:04.159><c> mild</c><00:16:04.360><c> man,</c><00:16:04.779><c> this</c><00:16:04.860><c> Moses.</c>

00:16:07.539 --> 00:16:10.639
He<00:16:07.980><c> gave</c><00:16:08.220><c> them</c><00:16:08.379><c> a</c><00:16:08.600><c> tongue</c><00:16:08.820><c> lashing</c><00:16:09.039><c> that</c><00:16:09.179><c> was</c><00:16:09.460><c> second</c><00:16:09.679><c> to</c><00:16:09.919><c> none.</c>

00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:12.639
You<00:16:11.519><c> know,</c><00:16:11.600><c> in</c><00:16:11.740><c> verse</c><00:16:11.919><c> eight</c><00:16:12.120><c> to</c><00:16:12.240><c> 13,</c>

00:16:12.700 --> 00:16:15.580
he<00:16:12.879><c> compares</c><00:16:13.240><c> them</c><00:16:13.399><c> to</c><00:16:13.539><c> the</c><00:16:13.779><c> 10</c><00:16:14.039><c> faithless</c><00:16:14.580><c> spies.</c>

00:16:16.259 --> 00:16:18.179
In<00:16:16.440><c> verse</c><00:16:16.659><c> nine,</c><00:16:16.980><c> who</c><00:16:17.159><c> discouraged</c><00:16:17.720><c> the</c><00:16:17.980><c> heart</c>

00:16:20.299 --> 00:16:22.600
He<00:16:20.440><c> likens</c><00:16:21.080><c> them</c><00:16:21.240><c> to</c><00:16:21.440><c> the</c><00:16:21.679><c> faithless</c><00:16:22.059><c> generation</c>

00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:23.740
who<00:16:22.740><c> were</c><00:16:22.899><c> lost</c><00:16:23.100><c> in</c><00:16:23.240><c> the</c><00:16:23.399><c> wilderness,</c>

00:16:24.120 --> 00:16:25.440
whose<00:16:24.320><c> bones</c><00:16:24.639><c> were</c><00:16:24.919><c> strewn</c><00:16:25.120><c> along,</c>

00:16:25.799 --> 00:16:27.019

00:16:27.179 --> 00:16:29.220
He<00:16:27.179><c> says,</c><00:16:27.460><c> you're</c><00:16:27.639><c> worse</c><00:16:27.960><c> than</c><00:16:28.220><c> them.</c>

00:16:35.340 --> 00:16:37.500
And<00:16:35.779><c> he</c><00:16:35.919><c> says</c><00:16:36.100><c> in</c><00:16:36.279><c> verse</c><00:16:36.460><c> seven,</c>

00:16:37.500 --> 00:16:39.340
wherefore<00:16:38.080><c> discourage</c><00:16:38.779><c> you</c><00:16:38.919><c> the</c><00:16:39.159><c> heart</c>

00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:48.799
You're<00:16:46.159><c> just</c><00:16:46.379><c> like</c><00:16:46.600><c> the</c><00:16:46.820><c> 12</c><00:16:47.080><c> spies</c><00:16:47.360><c> or</c><00:16:47.519><c> the</c><00:16:47.679><c> 10</c><00:16:47.899><c> spies.</c>

00:16:51.019 --> 00:16:54.039
You<00:16:51.080><c> know,</c><00:16:51.200><c> we</c><00:16:51.320><c> would</c><00:16:51.519><c> call</c><00:16:51.659><c> this</c><00:16:51.899><c> a</c><00:16:52.159><c> right</c><00:16:52.360><c> royal</c><00:16:52.679><c> dressing</c><00:16:53.039><c> down.</c>

00:16:54.379 --> 00:16:56.379
They<00:16:54.500><c> went</c><00:16:54.659><c> back</c><00:16:54.879><c> to</c><00:16:55.039><c> their</c><00:16:55.259><c> tents</c><00:16:55.480><c> with</c><00:16:55.700><c> their</c><00:16:55.879><c> ears</c><00:16:56.179><c> burning.</c>

00:16:56.419 --> 00:16:58.320

00:17:00.340 --> 00:17:02.740
You<00:17:00.600><c> were</c><00:17:00.799><c> risen</c><00:17:00.919><c> up</c><00:17:01.120><c> in</c><00:17:01.259><c> your</c><00:17:01.480><c> father's</c><00:17:02.059><c> stead</c>

00:17:04.940 --> 00:17:07.200
You're<00:17:05.000><c> worse</c><00:17:05.279><c> than</c><00:17:05.420><c> all</c><00:17:05.579><c> the</c><00:17:05.700><c> ones</c><00:17:05.839><c> of</c><00:17:05.980><c> the</c><00:17:06.160><c> past.</c>

00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:10.559
You're<00:17:09.160><c> gonna</c><00:17:09.279><c> bring</c><00:17:09.539><c> down</c><00:17:09.799><c> the</c><00:17:10.099><c> fierce</c><00:17:10.319><c> anger</c>

00:17:12.660 --> 00:17:15.440
We're<00:17:12.880><c> all</c><00:17:13.000><c> gonna</c><00:17:13.140><c> die</c><00:17:13.380><c> in</c><00:17:13.519><c> the</c><00:17:13.680><c> wilderness</c><00:17:13.920><c> because</c><00:17:14.240><c> of</c><00:17:14.440><c> you.</c>

00:17:15.460 --> 00:17:18.000
And<00:17:15.900><c> you</c><00:17:16.000><c> will</c><00:17:16.079><c> destroy</c><00:17:16.460><c> the</c><00:17:16.720><c> people.</c>

00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:20.380

00:17:24.099 --> 00:17:26.180

00:18:21.380 --> 00:18:22.400
There'll<00:18:21.519><c> be</c><00:18:21.660><c> a</c><00:18:21.799><c> great</c><00:18:21.980><c> defection.</c>

We<00:27:38.319><c> will</c><00:27:38.519><c> not</c><00:27:38.720><c> inherit</c><00:27:38.980><c> on</c><00:27:39.500><c> the</c><00:27:39.599><c> other</c><00:27:39.799><c> side</c><00:27:40.119><c> beyond</c><00:27:40.400><c> Jordan.</c>

00:27:41.299 --> 00:27:43.039
Our<00:27:41.539><c> lot</c><00:27:41.640><c> is</c><00:27:41.900><c> fallen</c><00:27:42.160><c> here.</c>

00:27:43.500 --> 00:27:46.359
Now,<00:27:44.640><c> we</c><00:27:44.940><c> don't</c><00:27:45.099><c> know</c><00:27:45.279><c> by</c><00:27:45.500><c> what</c><00:27:45.700><c> means</c><00:27:45.880><c> they</c><00:27:46.039><c> could</c><00:27:46.180><c> say</c>

00:27:46.359 --> 00:27:47.480
their<00:27:46.559><c> lot</c><00:27:46.740><c> was</c><00:27:47.000><c> fallen</c><00:27:47.200><c> here.</c>

00:27:47.619 --> 00:27:48.720
They<00:27:47.859><c> thought</c><00:27:48.000><c> it</c><00:27:48.119><c> was</c><00:27:48.319><c> appropriate</c>

00:27:48.720 --> 00:27:50.660
that<00:27:48.880><c> this</c><00:27:49.079><c> was</c><00:27:49.220><c> a</c><00:27:49.319><c> good</c><00:27:49.460><c> place</c><00:27:49.680><c> for</c><00:27:49.940><c> cattle.</c>

00:27:51.119 --> 00:27:52.740
There<00:27:51.339><c> had</c><00:27:51.559><c> been</c><00:27:51.759><c> no</c><00:27:52.059><c> calling</c><00:27:52.279><c> of</c><00:27:52.559><c> lots</c>

00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:57.180
So<00:27:55.480><c> we</c><00:27:55.640><c> don't</c><00:27:55.759><c> know</c><00:27:55.839><c> on</c><00:27:55.920><c> what</c><00:27:56.059><c> basis</c><00:27:56.339><c> they</c><00:27:56.460><c> could</c><00:27:56.660><c> say</c><00:27:56.900><c> that,</c>

00:27:57.460 --> 00:28:01.640
but<00:27:57.599><c> they</c><00:27:57.779><c> do</c><00:27:58.079><c> make</c><00:27:58.279><c> an</c><00:27:58.599><c> incredibly</c><00:27:59.240><c> vital</c><00:28:00.019><c> promise</c><00:28:00.400><c> here.</c>

00:28:03.740 --> 00:28:05.960
And<00:28:04.019><c> they</c><00:28:04.220><c> came</c><00:28:04.380><c> back</c><00:28:04.579><c> in</c><00:28:04.660><c> trepidation</c>

00:28:06.119 --> 00:28:10.259
because<00:28:06.359><c> they</c><00:28:06.640><c> address</c><00:28:07.019><c> Moses</c><00:28:07.420><c> as</c><00:28:08.660><c> our</c><00:28:09.299><c> Lord.</c>

00:28:10.880 --> 00:28:13.559
My<00:28:11.359><c> Lord</c><00:28:11.700><c> Moses,</c><00:28:12.039><c> they</c><00:28:12.299><c> call</c><00:28:12.500><c> him.</c>

00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:16.319
So<00:28:14.839><c> their</c><00:28:15.299><c> interpretation</c><00:28:15.900><c> of</c><00:28:16.140><c> Moses</c>

00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:18.920
because<00:28:16.559><c> of</c><00:28:16.680><c> his</c><00:28:16.859><c> anger</c><00:28:17.019><c> that</c><00:28:17.160><c> he</c><00:28:17.240><c> had</c><00:28:17.299><c> on</c><00:28:17.480><c> the</c><00:28:17.619><c> first</c><00:28:17.799><c> occasion.</c>

00:28:20.539 --> 00:28:22.140
But<00:28:20.680><c> there</c><00:28:20.799><c> was</c><00:28:20.960><c> a</c><00:28:21.119><c> great</c><00:28:21.319><c> contrition</c><00:28:21.740><c> in</c><00:28:21.960><c> this.</c>

00:28:22.220 --> 00:28:22.920
There<00:28:22.319><c> was</c><00:28:22.500><c> a</c><00:28:22.740><c> commitment.</c>

00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:25.299
They<00:28:23.119><c> were</c><00:28:23.279><c> willing</c><00:28:23.500><c> to</c><00:28:23.759><c> leave</c><00:28:23.920><c> their</c><00:28:24.220><c> families</c>

00:28:25.599 --> 00:28:27.819
on<00:28:26.079><c> the</c><00:28:26.240><c> other</c><00:28:26.519><c> side</c><00:28:26.700><c> of</c><00:28:26.880><c> Jordan</c>

00:28:29.680 --> 00:28:33.359
and<00:28:30.160><c> go</c><00:28:30.420><c> over</c><00:28:30.779><c> with</c><00:28:31.039><c> their</c><00:28:31.259><c> brethren</c><00:28:31.660><c> to</c><00:28:32.480><c> fight</c><00:28:32.720><c> the</c><00:28:33.000><c> Canaanites.</c>

00:28:33.440 --> 00:28:35.680
And<00:28:33.619><c> only</c><00:28:33.759><c> when</c><00:28:33.960><c> the</c><00:28:34.140><c> Canaanites</c><00:28:34.480><c> were</c><00:28:34.680><c> defeated</c>

00:28:35.799 --> 00:28:37.799
to<00:28:36.039><c> come</c><00:28:36.259><c> back</c><00:28:36.460><c> to</c><00:28:36.619><c> their</c><00:28:36.819><c> inheritance.</c>

00:28:38.380 --> 00:28:40.619
They<00:28:38.519><c> had</c><00:28:38.700><c> no</c><00:28:38.940><c> idea</c><00:28:39.180><c> how</c><00:28:39.380><c> long</c><00:28:39.460><c> it</c><00:28:39.559><c> would</c><00:28:39.799><c> take.</c>

00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:44.160
It<00:28:41.579><c> turned</c><00:28:41.740><c> out</c><00:28:41.980><c> to</c><00:28:42.099><c> be</c><00:28:42.339><c> seven</c><00:28:42.940><c> years.</c>

00:28:45.019 --> 00:28:46.880
That's<00:28:45.380><c> a</c><00:28:45.500><c> long</c><00:28:45.700><c> time</c><00:28:45.980><c> to</c><00:28:46.160><c> leave</c><00:28:46.259><c> your</c><00:28:46.559><c> families</c>

00:28:50.880 --> 00:28:54.539
Now<00:28:51.339><c> what's</c><00:28:51.619><c> fascinating</c><00:28:52.019><c> is</c><00:28:52.220><c> that</c><00:28:52.339><c> there's</c><00:28:52.660><c> no</c><00:28:52.940><c> dispute</c><00:28:53.319><c> by</c><00:28:53.559><c> Moses</c>

00:28:54.640 --> 00:28:57.240
about<00:28:55.099><c> the</c><00:28:55.339><c> fact</c><00:28:55.440><c> that</c><00:28:55.559><c> they</c><00:28:55.700><c> would</c><00:28:55.880><c> have</c><00:28:56.019><c> this</c><00:28:56.240><c> inheritance.</c>

00:29:00.579 --> 00:29:03.440
Moses<00:29:00.579><c> focuses</c><00:29:01.039><c> upon</c><00:29:01.599><c> the</c><00:29:02.680><c> good</c><00:29:02.819><c> intention</c>

00:29:05.799 --> 00:29:08.420
He<00:29:05.920><c> says</c><00:29:06.039><c> in</c><00:29:06.160><c> verse</c><00:29:06.319><c> 20,</c><00:29:06.680><c> if</c><00:29:06.720><c> you</c><00:29:06.940><c> will</c><00:29:07.059><c> do</c><00:29:07.259><c> this</c><00:29:07.559><c> thing,</c>

00:29:21.480 --> 00:29:24.079

00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:21.019

00:36:12.159 --> 00:36:14.760
which<00:36:12.639><c> was</c><00:36:12.840><c> the</c><00:36:13.099><c> time</c><00:36:13.500><c> that</c><00:36:13.820><c> the</c><00:36:14.000><c> Bible</c><00:36:14.260><c> says</c>

00:36:18.119 --> 00:36:20.000
Because<00:36:18.360><c> it's</c><00:36:18.539><c> very</c><00:36:18.880><c> hard</c><00:36:19.059><c> to</c><00:36:19.260><c> mobilize</c><00:36:19.599><c> an</c><00:36:19.840><c> army</c>

and<00:37:21.820><c> then</c><00:37:22.199><c> you</c><00:37:22.420><c> say</c><00:37:22.599><c> to</c><00:37:22.739><c> your</c><00:37:22.960><c> grandparents</c>

00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:26.420

00:37:26.719 --> 00:37:28.480
well,<00:37:27.199><c> I'll</c><00:37:27.380><c> see</c><00:37:27.460><c> you</c><00:37:27.579><c> in</c><00:37:27.679><c> a</c><00:37:27.820><c> few</c><00:37:27.920><c> weeks</c><00:37:28.159><c> time.</c>

00:37:28.559 --> 00:37:30.500
We're<00:37:28.739><c> going</c><00:37:28.800><c> up</c><00:37:28.960><c> to</c><00:37:29.079><c> keep</c><00:37:29.199><c> the</c><00:37:29.440><c> feast.</c>

00:37:32.099 --> 00:37:33.280
Look<00:37:32.260><c> after</c><00:37:32.539><c> yourselves,</c><00:37:33.000><c> won't</c><00:37:33.199><c> you?</c>

00:37:33.360 --> 00:37:34.880
And<00:37:33.420><c> the</c><00:37:33.559><c> Philistines</c><00:37:33.880><c> are</c><00:37:34.019><c> there</c><00:37:34.139><c> rubbing</c><00:37:34.400><c> their</c><00:37:34.679><c> hands</c>

00:37:34.880 --> 00:37:37.280
and<00:37:35.119><c> saying,</c><00:37:35.239><c> oh,</c><00:37:35.539><c> they're</c><00:37:35.980><c> all</c><00:37:36.320><c> disappearing.</c>

00:37:38.360 --> 00:37:40.659
God<00:37:38.579><c> says,</c><00:37:39.000><c> they</c><00:37:39.079><c> won't</c><00:37:39.400><c> even</c><00:37:39.820><c> dare</c><00:37:40.059><c> come</c><00:37:40.320><c> near</c><00:37:40.519><c> your</c><00:37:40.659><c> land.</c>

00:37:40.699 --> 00:37:42.380
You<00:37:40.920><c> think</c><00:37:41.079><c> of</c><00:37:41.199><c> the</c><00:37:41.280><c> amount</c><00:37:41.480><c> of</c><00:37:41.679><c> angelic</c><00:37:42.079><c> providence</c>

00:37:42.380 --> 00:37:44.059
has<00:37:42.579><c> to</c><00:37:42.739><c> be</c><00:37:42.840><c> in</c><00:37:43.019><c> that.</c>

00:37:45.099 --> 00:37:46.940
That<00:37:45.239><c> their</c><00:37:45.440><c> land,</c><00:37:45.739><c> if</c><00:37:45.760><c> they</c><00:37:46.019><c> faithfully</c><00:37:46.460><c> kept</c><00:37:46.599><c> the</c><00:37:46.820><c> feast,</c>

00:37:47.019 --> 00:37:48.519
their<00:37:47.179><c> land</c><00:37:47.320><c> would</c><00:37:47.619><c> not</c><00:37:47.820><c> be</c><00:37:48.119><c> touched.</c>

00:37:48.980 --> 00:37:51.079
Now,<00:37:49.539><c> I</c><00:37:49.599><c> believe</c><00:37:49.719><c> that</c><00:37:49.920><c> Reuben</c><00:37:50.079><c> and</c><00:37:50.320><c> Gad</c><00:37:50.400><c> had</c><00:37:50.599><c> read</c><00:37:50.840><c> that</c>

00:37:51.079 --> 00:37:53.500
and<00:37:51.219><c> said,</c><00:37:51.599><c> that's</c><00:37:51.739><c> the</c><00:37:51.920><c> principle</c><00:37:52.199><c> that</c><00:37:52.400><c> God</c><00:37:52.559><c> applies.</c>

00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:55.760
We<00:37:53.820><c> do</c><00:37:54.000><c> the</c><00:37:54.219><c> right</c><00:37:54.420><c> thing</c><00:37:54.579><c> by</c><00:37:54.800><c> our</c><00:37:54.980><c> brethren</c>

00:37:56.139 --> 00:37:58.800
and<00:37:56.539><c> God</c><00:37:56.739><c> will</c><00:37:56.900><c> look</c><00:37:57.119><c> after</c><00:37:57.440><c> our</c><00:37:57.820><c> families.</c>

00:37:59.900 --> 00:38:01.840
And<00:38:00.300><c> they</c><00:38:00.480><c> were</c><00:38:00.659><c> not</c><00:38:00.840><c> disappointed.</c>

00:38:02.920 --> 00:38:04.559
Just<00:38:03.199><c> make</c><00:38:03.380><c> a</c><00:38:03.579><c> note</c><00:38:03.739><c> against</c><00:38:04.039><c> that</c><00:38:04.340><c> verse</c>

00:38:04.559 --> 00:38:06.559
of<00:38:04.760><c> 2</c><00:38:04.940><c> Chronicles</c><00:38:05.440><c> 17,</c><00:38:06.000><c> verse</c><00:38:06.079><c> nine</c><00:38:06.320><c> and</c><00:38:06.519><c> 10.</c>

00:38:06.599 --> 00:38:08.199
We<00:38:06.719><c> haven't</c><00:38:06.800><c> got</c><00:38:06.960><c> time</c><00:38:07.159><c> to</c><00:38:07.320><c> go</c><00:38:07.480><c> there,</c>

00:38:09.019 --> 00:38:12.159
but<00:38:09.420><c> Jehoshaphat</c><00:38:09.820><c> brought</c><00:38:10.079><c> in</c><00:38:10.360><c> Levites</c><00:38:10.719><c> to</c><00:38:10.980><c> teach</c><00:38:11.159><c> Israel.</c>

00:38:12.659 --> 00:38:14.400
And<00:38:12.820><c> it</c><00:38:13.019><c> says,</c><00:38:13.920><c> as</c><00:38:14.039><c> a</c><00:38:14.280><c> result,</c>

00:38:14.539 --> 00:38:17.619
God<00:38:14.739><c> took</c><00:38:15.019><c> away</c><00:38:15.300><c> all</c><00:38:15.599><c> their</c><00:38:15.800><c> enemies</c><00:38:16.079><c> from</c><00:38:16.360><c> them</c>

00:38:17.800 --> 00:38:20.159
because<00:38:18.039><c> they</c><00:38:18.300><c> gave</c><00:38:18.480><c> attention</c><00:38:18.880><c> to</c><00:38:19.079><c> God's</c><00:38:19.400><c> law.</c>

00:38:20.219 --> 00:38:22.219
He<00:38:20.219><c> protected</c><00:38:20.659><c> them</c><00:38:20.820><c> from</c><00:38:21.000><c> all</c><00:38:21.179><c> their</c><00:38:21.300><c> enemies.</c>

00:38:23.139 --> 00:38:24.300
And<00:38:23.179><c> that's</c><00:38:23.420><c> a</c><00:38:23.519><c> great</c><00:38:23.659><c> principle,</c><00:38:24.179><c> isn't</c><00:38:24.179><c> it?</c>

00:38:24.340 --> 00:38:26.619
You<00:38:24.480><c> put</c><00:38:24.679><c> God's</c><00:38:25.119><c> work</c><00:38:25.300><c> first.</c>

00:38:26.980 --> 00:38:31.079
Above<00:38:27.199><c> selfish</c><00:38:27.579><c> interest,</c><00:38:28.019><c> God</c><00:38:28.280><c> can</c><00:38:28.599><c> begin</c><00:38:28.860><c> to</c><00:38:29.099><c> work</c><00:38:29.380><c> around</c><00:38:29.800><c> you.</c>

00:38:33.800 --> 00:38:36.119
I<00:38:33.880><c> want</c><00:38:33.940><c> to</c><00:38:34.039><c> just</c><00:38:34.159><c> make</c><00:38:34.260><c> a</c><00:38:34.460><c> clarification</c><00:38:34.980><c> on</c><00:38:35.199><c> this.</c>

00:38:36.800 --> 00:38:38.119
I<00:38:36.900><c> am</c><00:38:37.099><c> not</c><00:38:37.340><c> saying</c><00:38:37.579><c> to</c><00:38:37.780><c> brethren</c>

00:38:38.119 --> 00:38:41.260

00:38:44.760 --> 00:38:46.179
Well,<00:38:44.860><c> I'm</c><00:38:44.960><c> too</c><00:38:45.199><c> busy</c><00:38:45.420><c> doing</c><00:38:45.659><c> this</c><00:38:45.960><c> talk</c>

00:38:50.219 --> 00:38:51.420
It's<00:38:50.420><c> not</c><00:38:50.599><c> saying</c><00:38:50.840><c> that.</c>

00:38:51.880 --> 00:38:54.579
It's<00:38:51.940><c> saying</c><00:38:52.119><c> that</c><00:38:52.280><c> when</c><00:38:52.420><c> it</c><00:38:52.619><c> comes</c><00:38:52.820><c> to</c><00:38:53.059><c> choices</c><00:38:53.340><c> in</c><00:38:53.639><c> life,</c>

Commitment<00:49:27.659><c> to</c><00:49:27.840><c> the</c><00:49:28.019><c> brotherhood.</c>

00:49:29.300 --> 00:49:32.219
You<00:49:29.320><c> know,</c><00:49:29.579><c> Peter</c><00:49:29.739><c> says,</c><00:49:30.039><c> love</c><00:49:30.360><c> the</c><00:49:30.639><c> brotherhood.</c>

00:49:32.559 --> 00:49:37.360
Think<00:49:32.820><c> about</c><00:49:33.300><c> what</c><00:49:34.440><c> we</c><00:49:34.760><c> do</c><00:49:35.199><c> and</c><00:49:35.440><c> how</c><00:49:35.619><c> it</c><00:49:35.840><c> affects</c><00:49:36.059><c> other</c><00:49:36.360><c> people.</c>

00:49:39.579 --> 00:49:42.940
And<00:49:39.739><c> attendance</c><00:49:40.059><c> and</c><00:49:40.440><c> support</c><00:49:40.780><c> of</c><00:49:41.079><c> the</c><00:49:41.260><c> ecclesial</c><00:49:41.800><c> activities</c>

00:49:43.460 --> 00:49:46.360
is<00:49:44.019><c> not</c><00:49:44.219><c> about</c><00:49:44.800><c> just</c><00:49:45.559><c> pleasing</c><00:49:45.780><c> everybody</c><00:49:46.179><c> else.</c>

00:49:46.360 --> 00:49:48.659
It's<00:49:46.579><c> about</c><00:49:46.860><c> working</c><00:49:47.260><c> with</c><00:49:47.539><c> God,</c><00:49:47.900><c> with</c><00:49:48.059><c> our</c><00:49:48.280><c> brethren,</c>

00:49:48.659 --> 00:49:52.500
shoulder<00:49:49.400><c> to</c><00:49:49.639><c> shoulder</c><00:49:50.239><c> until</c><00:49:50.860><c> the</c><00:49:51.059><c> battle</c><00:49:51.280><c> is</c><00:49:51.539><c> over.</c>

00:49:54.539 --> 00:49:57.219
And<00:49:54.800><c> remember</c><00:49:55.019><c> it's</c><00:49:55.239><c> God's</c><00:49:55.619><c> work</c><00:49:55.739><c> to</c><00:49:56.000><c> cooperate</c>

00:49:57.780 --> 00:50:00.219
and<00:49:58.420><c> to</c><00:49:58.579><c> work</c><00:49:58.719><c> with</c><00:49:58.960><c> our</c><00:49:59.159><c> God.</c>

00:50:01.699 --> 00:50:04.300
Consider<00:50:01.980><c> the</c><00:50:02.179><c> ramifications</c><00:50:02.960><c> of</c><00:50:03.739><c> our</c><00:50:03.900><c> decisions</c>

00:50:04.300 --> 00:50:06.039
upon<00:50:04.659><c> other</c><00:50:04.980><c> people.</c>

00:50:07.880 --> 00:50:12.099
We<00:50:08.460><c> can</c><00:50:08.639><c> either</c><00:50:08.920><c> inspire</c><00:50:09.500><c> or</c><00:50:09.780><c> discourage</c><00:50:10.360><c> and</c><00:50:10.619><c> break</c><00:50:10.820><c> hearts.</c>

00:50:15.280 --> 00:50:17.179
It's<00:50:15.519><c> become</c><00:50:15.719><c> rather</c><00:50:16.079><c> unpopular</c>

00:50:17.239 --> 00:50:20.300
to<00:50:17.760><c> try</c><00:50:18.000><c> and</c><00:50:18.179><c> set</c><00:50:18.260><c> an</c><00:50:18.500><c> example</c><00:50:18.860><c> for</c><00:50:19.099><c> the</c><00:50:19.340><c> believers.</c>

00:50:22.340 --> 00:50:26.840
But<00:50:22.579><c> the</c><00:50:22.760><c> antidote</c><00:50:23.519><c> to</c><00:50:24.360><c> selfishness</c><00:50:24.739><c> is</c><00:50:24.880><c> the</c><00:50:25.059><c> mind</c><00:50:25.219><c> of</c><00:50:25.400><c> Christ.</c>

00:50:26.940 --> 00:50:28.780
It<00:50:27.099><c> says</c><00:50:27.099><c> in</c><00:50:27.300><c> Romans</c><00:50:27.539><c> 15</c><00:50:28.039><c> verse</c><00:50:28.300><c> three,</c>

00:50:29.039 --> 00:50:32.159
we<00:50:29.199><c> that</c><00:50:29.360><c> are</c><00:50:29.659><c> strong</c><00:50:29.860><c> ought</c><00:50:30.079><c> not</c><00:50:30.340><c> to</c><00:50:30.679><c> please</c><00:50:30.840><c> ourselves</c>

00:50:34.079 --> 00:50:36.500
because<00:50:34.599><c> Christ</c><00:50:35.000><c> pleased</c><00:50:35.300><c> not</c><00:50:35.480><c> himself.</c>

00:50:37.639 --> 00:50:41.360
We<00:50:37.900><c> ought</c><00:50:38.039><c> to</c><00:50:38.179><c> submit</c><00:50:38.679><c> and</c><00:50:39.300><c> give</c><00:50:39.699><c> and</c><00:50:40.260><c> contribute</c>

00:50:41.639 --> 00:50:43.300
and<00:50:41.900><c> curb</c><00:50:42.199><c> our</c><00:50:42.460><c> liberties</c><00:50:42.719><c> for</c><00:50:42.940><c> the</c><00:50:43.179><c> sake</c>

00:50:43.300 --> 00:50:45.019
of<00:50:43.480><c> our</c><00:50:43.619><c> brethren</c><00:50:43.840><c> and</c><00:50:44.059><c> sisters.</c>

00:50:47.380 --> 00:50:50.940
We<00:50:47.900><c> do</c><00:50:48.099><c> not</c><00:50:48.219><c> have</c><00:50:48.360><c> liberty</c><00:50:48.659><c> to</c><00:50:48.900><c> harm</c><00:50:49.099><c> people</c><00:50:49.400><c> by</c><00:50:49.619><c> our</c><00:50:49.880><c> thoughtlessness.</c>

00:50:53.300 --> 00:50:55.500
By<00:50:53.519><c> love,</c><00:50:54.039><c> serve</c><00:50:54.440><c> one</c><00:50:54.679><c> another.</c>

00:50:56.719 --> 00:50:58.440
Brethren<00:50:57.019><c> and</c><00:50:57.300><c> sisters,</c><00:50:57.659><c> let</c><00:50:57.760><c> us</c><00:50:58.000><c> determine</c>

00:50:58.440 --> 00:51:02.239
to<00:50:58.699><c> march</c><00:50:58.880><c> shoulder</c><00:50:59.239><c> to</c><00:50:59.500><c> shoulder</c><00:50:59.760><c> towards</c><00:51:00.260><c> Abraham's</c><00:51:01.179><c> land.</c>

00:51:03.820 --> 00:51:06.239
Always<00:51:04.260><c> abounding</c><00:51:04.679><c> in</c><00:51:04.840><c> the</c><00:51:05.000><c> work</c><00:51:05.139><c> of</c><00:51:05.320><c> the</c><00:51:05.460><c> Lord,</c>

not<00:51:07.219><c> forsaking</c><00:51:07.820><c> the</c><00:51:08.099><c> assembling</c><00:51:08.360><c> of</c><00:51:08.619><c> ourselves</c><00:51:08.940><c> together</c>

00:51:09.360 --> 00:51:11.300
