But<00:08:51.960><c> what</c><00:08:52.139><c> I'm</c><00:08:52.279><c> saying</c><00:08:52.659><c> is</c><00:08:53.159><c> that</c><00:08:54.379><c> there</c><00:08:55.440><c> will</c><00:08:55.659><c> be</c><00:08:55.860><c> a</c><00:08:56.120><c> time</c><00:08:56.419><c> when</c>

00:08:58.940 --> 00:09:03.940
And<00:08:59.899><c> I</c><00:09:00.139><c> believe</c><00:09:00.460><c> that</c><00:09:00.700><c> that</c><00:09:00.899><c> will</c><00:09:01.299><c> actually</c><00:09:01.799><c> take</c><00:09:02.139><c> place</c><00:09:02.519><c> after</c><00:09:03.440><c> the</c>

00:09:06.580 --> 00:09:11.100
And<00:09:07.139><c> that</c><00:09:07.919><c> there</c><00:09:08.440><c> will</c><00:09:08.639><c> be</c><00:09:08.840><c> a</c><00:09:09.000><c> task</c><00:09:09.240><c> to</c><00:09:09.500><c> do,</c><00:09:09.659><c> first</c><00:09:10.039><c> of</c><00:09:10.259><c> all,</c><00:09:10.620><c> in</c>

00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:17.899

00:09:29.840 --> 00:09:35.120
He<00:09:29.840><c> says,</c><00:09:30.159><c> We</c><00:09:30.159><c> have</c><00:09:30.440><c> then</c><00:09:30.779><c> arrived</c><00:09:31.399><c> at</c><00:09:31.980><c> a</c><00:09:32.259><c> great</c><00:09:32.539><c> truth,</c><00:09:33.639><c> namely</c><00:09:34.299><c> that</c>

00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:39.399
the<00:09:35.700><c> one</c><00:09:36.200><c> hope</c><00:09:36.620><c> of</c><00:09:36.940><c> the</c><00:09:37.120><c> gospel</c><00:09:37.679><c> preached</c><00:09:38.220><c> by</c><00:09:38.500><c> the</c><00:09:38.779><c> apostles</c>

00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:48.879
That<00:09:45.320><c> the</c><00:09:45.559><c> subject</c><00:09:46.059><c> of</c><00:09:46.320><c> it</c><00:09:46.399><c> was</c><00:09:46.720><c> the</c><00:09:46.879><c> kingdom</c><00:09:47.240><c> of</c><00:09:47.480><c> God</c><00:09:47.740><c> and</c><00:09:48.100><c> Shiloh.</c>

00:09:49.220 --> 00:09:53.899

00:09:54.519 --> 00:10:00.639
So<00:09:54.740><c> we</c><00:09:55.059><c> need</c><00:09:55.279><c> to</c><00:09:55.480><c> consider</c><00:09:55.980><c> the</c><00:09:56.480><c> important</c><00:09:57.100><c> question</c><00:09:57.679><c> then</c><00:09:57.980><c> that</c><00:09:58.259><c> arises</c><00:09:58.899><c> now</c><00:09:59.740><c> out</c><00:10:00.240><c> of</c>

00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:11.220
And<00:10:04.759><c> so</c><00:10:04.879><c> we</c><00:10:05.039><c> ask</c><00:10:05.279><c> the</c><00:10:05.500><c> question,</c><00:10:07.519><c> why</c><00:10:08.059><c> Ecclesias</c><00:10:08.860><c> today</c><00:10:09.700><c> should</c><00:10:10.620><c> study</c>

00:10:18.860 --> 00:10:21.600

And<00:10:40.559><c> there's</c><00:10:40.820><c> probably</c><00:10:41.279><c> never</c><00:10:41.580><c> been</c><00:10:41.799><c> a</c><00:10:42.000><c> time</c><00:10:42.220><c> when</c><00:10:42.440><c> we</c><00:10:42.539><c> need</c>

00:10:42.779 --> 00:10:47.220
it<00:10:43.019><c> more</c><00:10:43.340><c> than</c><00:10:43.519><c> at</c><00:10:43.720><c> the</c><00:10:43.899><c> moment</c><00:10:44.360><c> with</c><00:10:44.899><c> all</c><00:10:45.139><c> the</c><00:10:45.419><c> various</c><00:10:46.179><c> difficulties</c><00:10:46.860><c> that</c>

surround<00:10:47.580><c> us.</c>

00:10:49.700 --> 00:10:54.759
If<00:10:49.940><c> we</c><00:10:50.299><c> truly</c><00:10:50.700><c> desire</c><00:10:51.759><c> to</c><00:10:52.960><c> walk</c><00:10:53.240><c> in</c><00:10:53.419><c> the</c><00:10:53.600><c> light</c><00:10:53.799><c> of</c><00:10:54.039><c> Christ's</c>

00:10:58.279 --> 00:11:02.279
then<00:10:58.500><c> we</c><00:10:58.720><c> must</c><00:10:59.080><c> know</c><00:10:59.460><c> and</c><00:10:59.840><c> understand</c><00:11:00.340><c> what</c><00:11:00.580><c> he's</c><00:11:00.899><c> telling</c><00:11:01.139><c> us.</c>

00:11:02.980 --> 00:11:06.100
You<00:11:03.240><c> know,</c><00:11:03.240><c> you</c><00:11:03.440><c> can't</c><00:11:03.919><c> walk</c><00:11:04.279><c> if</c><00:11:04.500><c> you</c><00:11:04.720><c> have</c><00:11:04.879><c> no</c><00:11:05.179><c> light.</c>

00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:10.740
You've<00:11:07.279><c> got</c><00:11:07.440><c> to</c><00:11:07.779><c> understand</c><00:11:08.519><c> what</c><00:11:08.799><c> it</c><00:11:09.080><c> is</c><00:11:09.360><c> that</c><00:11:09.580><c> the</c><00:11:09.779><c> Lord</c><00:11:10.039><c> wants</c><00:11:10.460><c> of</c>

you,<00:11:10.980><c> what</c><00:11:11.159><c> he's</c><00:11:11.580><c> expecting</c><00:11:12.139><c> of</c><00:11:12.460><c> you.</c>

00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:17.039
And<00:11:14.039><c> that</c><00:11:14.279><c> light</c><00:11:14.539><c> is</c><00:11:14.759><c> going</c><00:11:14.899><c> to</c><00:11:15.120><c> come</c><00:11:15.320><c> from</c><00:11:15.519><c> our</c><00:11:15.879><c> understanding</c><00:11:16.379><c> of</c><00:11:16.639><c> the</c><00:11:16.799><c> Word.</c>

00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:19.700
It's<00:11:17.279><c> not</c><00:11:17.419><c> going</c><00:11:17.580><c> to</c><00:11:17.700><c> come</c><00:11:17.860><c> from</c><00:11:18.080><c> anywhere</c><00:11:18.480><c> else.</c>

00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:24.919
Both<00:11:20.639><c> as</c><00:11:20.940><c> individuals</c><00:11:21.759><c> and</c><00:11:22.779><c> as</c><00:11:23.220><c> Ecclesias,</c><00:11:24.480><c> this</c><00:11:24.659><c> is</c>

00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:26.759
absolutely<00:11:25.519><c> necessary.</c>

00:11:28.299 --> 00:11:31.980
There<00:11:28.500><c> is</c><00:11:28.820><c> so</c><00:11:29.120><c> much</c><00:11:29.340><c> for</c><00:11:29.580><c> us</c><00:11:29.779><c> to</c><00:11:29.960><c> learn</c><00:11:30.159><c> from</c><00:11:30.379><c> this</c><00:11:30.639><c> book,</c><00:11:31.000><c> brothers</c><00:11:31.179><c> and</c><00:11:31.399><c> sisters.</c>

00:11:31.980 --> 00:11:38.299
Not<00:11:32.899><c> for</c><00:11:33.179><c> nothing</c><00:11:33.600><c> was</c><00:11:33.980><c> Eureka,</c><00:11:36.559><c> originally</c><00:11:37.299><c> anyway,</c><00:11:37.940><c> three</c>

fat<00:11:38.840><c> volumes.</c>

00:11:40.340 --> 00:11:43.059
And<00:11:40.720><c> it</c><00:11:40.919><c> takes</c><00:11:41.220><c> quite</c><00:11:41.539><c> a</c><00:11:41.740><c> while</c><00:11:42.080><c> to</c><00:11:42.399><c> go</c><00:11:42.679><c> through</c><00:11:42.899><c> it.</c>

00:11:43.179 --> 00:11:48.279
I<00:11:43.259><c> remember</c><00:11:43.899><c> a</c><00:11:44.620><c> class</c><00:11:44.779><c> in</c><00:11:45.039><c> Birmingham,</c><00:11:45.519><c> England</c><00:11:46.000><c> that</c><00:11:46.559><c> started</c><00:11:47.000><c> what</c><00:11:47.559><c> they</c><00:11:47.840><c> called</c><00:11:48.019><c> a</c>

00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:53.519
Eureka<00:11:48.779><c> class,</c><00:11:50.100><c> and</c><00:11:50.379><c> it</c><00:11:50.659><c> went</c><00:11:50.860><c> on</c><00:11:51.200><c> for</c><00:11:51.559><c> 13</c><00:11:52.179><c> years.</c>

00:11:55.980 --> 00:11:59.500
The<00:11:56.279><c> people</c><00:11:56.580><c> came</c><00:11:56.899><c> out</c><00:11:57.100><c> of</c><00:11:57.200><c> it</c><00:11:57.340><c> a</c><00:11:57.399><c> lot</c><00:11:57.639><c> wiser</c><00:11:58.379><c> than</c><00:11:59.159><c> before</c>

00:11:59.500 --> 00:12:00.159
they<00:11:59.799><c> started.</c>

00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:05.179
That<00:12:01.080><c> was</c><00:12:01.860><c> run</c><00:12:02.240><c> by</c><00:12:02.580><c> a</c><00:12:03.019><c> brother,</c><00:12:03.580><c> Arthur</c><00:12:03.759><c> Pennington,</c><00:12:04.460><c> if</c><00:12:04.620><c> any</c>

00:12:05.179 --> 00:12:06.240

00:12:06.539 --> 00:12:08.019
Quite<00:12:06.820><c> a</c><00:12:07.159><c> character.</c>

00:12:08.039 --> 00:12:12.259
Anyway,<00:12:10.059><c> there's</c><00:12:10.220><c> a</c><00:12:10.340><c> lot</c><00:12:10.500><c> for</c><00:12:10.740><c> us</c><00:12:10.879><c> to</c><00:12:11.080><c> learn</c><00:12:11.299><c> out</c><00:12:11.559><c> of</c><00:12:11.659><c> this</c><00:12:11.919><c> book</c><00:12:12.100><c> of</c>

00:12:12.259 --> 00:12:12.940
the<00:12:12.419><c> apocalypse.</c>

00:12:13.179 --> 00:12:17.940
We've<00:12:13.440><c> got</c><00:12:14.139><c> six</c><00:12:15.360><c> sessions</c><00:12:15.980><c> to</c><00:12:16.299><c> give</c><00:12:16.440><c> on</c><00:12:16.639><c> it</c><00:12:16.799><c> this</c><00:12:17.019><c> week.</c>

00:12:18.379 --> 00:12:22.000
It's<00:12:18.799><c> nowhere</c><00:12:19.120><c> near</c><00:12:19.740><c> long</c><00:12:20.019><c> enough</c><00:12:20.460><c> even</c><00:12:20.960><c> really</c><00:12:21.399><c> to</c><00:12:21.720><c> scratch</c>

00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.919
the<00:12:22.299><c> surface,</c><00:12:22.960><c> as</c><00:12:23.360><c> I'm</c><00:12:23.519><c> sure</c><00:12:23.720><c> you</c><00:12:23.899><c> can</c><00:12:24.120><c> appreciate.</c>

00:12:25.580 --> 00:12:28.159
But<00:12:25.879><c> we</c><00:12:26.620><c> do</c><00:12:26.860><c> what</c><00:12:27.039><c> we</c><00:12:27.340><c> can.</c>

00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:34.700
But<00:12:29.220><c> here</c><00:12:29.879><c> is</c><00:12:30.159><c> the</c><00:12:30.360><c> one</c><00:12:31.419><c> speaking</c><00:12:32.220><c> to</c><00:12:32.480><c> us,</c><00:12:32.840><c> brothers</c><00:12:32.980><c> and</c><00:12:33.259><c> sisters,</c><00:12:34.419><c> who</c>

00:12:34.700 --> 00:12:39.840

00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:45.240
Not<00:12:41.220><c> just</c><00:12:41.440><c> for</c><00:12:41.620><c> a</c><00:12:41.740><c> bit,</c><00:12:43.419><c> but</c><00:12:43.559><c> forevermore.</c>

00:12:46.460 --> 00:12:51.659
And<00:12:46.659><c> so</c><00:12:46.820><c> he</c><00:12:47.039><c> speaks</c><00:12:47.620><c> to</c><00:12:48.039><c> us</c><00:12:48.879><c> through</c><00:12:49.360><c> this</c><00:12:49.720><c> book</c><00:12:50.019><c> of</c><00:12:50.240><c> the</c><00:12:50.460><c> apocalypse.</c>

00:12:57.820 --> 00:13:03.000
We<00:12:58.100><c> need</c><00:12:58.659><c> the</c><00:12:59.139><c> revealing</c><00:12:59.679><c> of</c><00:13:00.379><c> Jesus</c><00:13:01.100><c> Christ,</c><00:13:02.519><c> which</c><00:13:02.659><c> is</c><00:13:02.820><c> what</c>

00:13:05.100 --> 00:13:12.080
Here,<00:13:05.600><c> more</c><00:13:05.960><c> than</c><00:13:06.200><c> anywhere,</c><00:13:07.960><c> the</c><00:13:08.120><c> mind</c><00:13:08.519><c> of</c><00:13:08.759><c> Christ</c><00:13:09.159><c> is</c><00:13:09.580><c> revealed,</c><00:13:11.019><c> as</c><00:13:11.139><c> the</c><00:13:11.580><c> title</c><00:13:11.879><c> of</c>

the<00:13:12.179><c> book</c><00:13:12.360><c> tells</c><00:13:12.700><c> us.</c>

00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:17.139
Here<00:13:14.559><c> is</c><00:13:14.840><c> the</c><00:13:15.120><c> testimony</c><00:13:15.899><c> of</c><00:13:16.279><c> Jesus</c><00:13:16.820><c> Christ.</c>

00:13:21.539 --> 00:13:26.220
And<00:13:22.039><c> through</c><00:13:22.220><c> this</c><00:13:22.840><c> we</c><00:13:23.440><c> can</c><00:13:23.720><c> come</c><00:13:23.960><c> to</c><00:13:24.240><c> know</c><00:13:24.440><c> him</c><00:13:24.720><c> more</c><00:13:25.220><c> closely.</c>

00:13:26.340 --> 00:13:28.580
And<00:13:26.899><c> that's</c><00:13:27.340><c> what</c><00:13:27.559><c> we</c><00:13:27.779><c> want</c><00:13:27.899><c> to</c><00:13:28.080><c> do,</c><00:13:28.279><c> isn't</c><00:13:28.460><c> it?</c>

00:13:28.580 --> 00:13:32.259
We<00:13:28.759><c> want</c><00:13:28.940><c> to</c><00:13:29.100><c> come</c><00:13:29.279><c> to</c><00:13:29.500><c> know</c><00:13:29.700><c> the</c><00:13:30.039><c> real,</c><00:13:31.159><c> living</c><00:13:31.379><c> Lord</c><00:13:31.820><c> Jesus.</c>

Are<00:17:37.079><c> we</c><00:17:37.339><c> tuned</c><00:17:37.619><c> in?</c>

00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:41.559
We<00:17:39.960><c> have</c><00:17:40.299><c> to</c><00:17:40.519><c> be.</c>

00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:44.619
This<00:17:42.319><c> is</c><00:17:42.579><c> for</c><00:17:42.859><c> our</c><00:17:43.440><c> salvation.</c>

00:17:46.579 --> 00:17:49.559

00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:52.740
So<00:17:50.960><c> there</c><00:17:51.099><c> are</c><00:17:51.279><c> things</c><00:17:51.460><c> to</c><00:17:51.799><c> keep.</c>

00:17:56.900 --> 00:18:01.220
Commandments<00:17:57.539><c> given</c><00:17:57.819><c> to</c><00:17:58.140><c> us</c><00:17:58.640><c> that</c><00:17:59.039><c> we</c><00:17:59.319><c> need</c><00:17:59.559><c> to</c><00:18:00.019><c> understand.</c>

00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:06.660
One<00:18:02.240><c> of</c><00:18:02.519><c> them,</c><00:18:02.759><c> for</c><00:18:03.000><c> example,</c><00:18:03.680><c> is</c><00:18:04.799><c> that</c><00:18:05.140><c> we</c><00:18:05.339><c> cannot</c><00:18:05.759><c> receive</c>

00:18:09.539 --> 00:18:10.819
Well,<00:18:09.619><c> what's</c><00:18:09.920><c> that?</c>

00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:14.079
How<00:18:12.079><c> can</c><00:18:12.319><c> you</c><00:18:12.519><c> keep</c><00:18:12.779><c> that</c><00:18:13.099><c> commandment</c><00:18:13.539><c> if</c><00:18:13.640><c> you</c><00:18:13.859><c> don't</c><00:18:14.000><c> know</c>

00:18:14.079 --> 00:18:17.480
what<00:18:14.259><c> it</c><00:18:14.500><c> is,</c><00:18:15.559><c> what</c><00:18:15.720><c> it's</c><00:18:16.019><c> referring</c><00:18:16.420><c> to?</c>

00:18:18.180 --> 00:18:21.119
We<00:18:18.400><c> have</c><00:18:18.720><c> a</c><00:18:18.859><c> task,</c><00:18:19.400><c> brothers</c><00:18:19.519><c> and</c><00:18:19.779><c> sisters,</c><00:18:20.039><c> to</c><00:18:20.339><c> understand</c>

00:18:23.019 --> 00:18:28.900
And<00:18:23.200><c> if</c><00:18:23.740><c> you</c><00:18:24.220><c> don't</c><00:18:24.700><c> know,</c><00:18:25.880><c> the</c><00:18:26.279><c> consequences</c><00:18:26.799><c> are</c><00:18:27.079><c> pretty</c><00:18:27.559><c> extreme.</c>

00:18:29.059 --> 00:18:33.900
Because,<00:18:31.099><c> what</c><00:18:31.440><c> chapter</c><00:18:31.799><c> is</c><00:18:32.000><c> it</c><00:18:32.160><c> now?</c><00:18:32.460><c> Is</c><00:18:32.500><c> it</c><00:18:32.819><c> in...</c>

00:18:36.140 --> 00:18:39.480
I<00:18:36.319><c> can't</c><00:18:36.579><c> remember,</c><00:18:37.059><c> I</c><00:18:37.059><c> think</c><00:18:37.220><c> it</c><00:18:37.619><c> might</c><00:18:37.759><c> be</c><00:18:37.920><c> chapter</c><00:18:38.200><c> 14.</c>

00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:57.359
There<00:18:53.140><c> you</c><00:18:53.420><c> go,</c><00:18:53.720><c> chapter</c><00:18:54.099><c> 14,</c><00:18:55.660><c> verse</c><00:18:56.019><c> 9.</c>

00:18:57.859 --> 00:19:11.599
Take<00:18:58.420><c> these</c><00:18:58.660><c> words</c><00:18:58.980><c> in,</c><00:18:59.420><c> brothers</c><00:18:59.619><c> and</c><00:19:03.859><c> sisters.</c>

00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:24.819
When's<00:19:23.660><c> that?</c>

00:19:25.599 --> 00:19:28.380
It's<00:19:26.119><c> talking</c><00:19:26.460><c> about</c><00:19:26.779><c> the</c><00:19:27.000><c> judgment</c><00:19:27.380><c> seat</c><00:19:27.619><c> of</c><00:19:27.779><c> Christ,</c><00:19:28.200><c> isn't</c>

00:19:28.380 --> 00:19:29.359
it?<00:19:28.519><c> It</c><00:19:28.519><c> has</c><00:19:28.779><c> to</c><00:19:29.000><c> be.</c>

00:19:29.700 --> 00:19:32.960
It's<00:19:29.880><c> in</c><00:19:30.019><c> the</c><00:19:30.240><c> presence</c><00:19:30.579><c> of</c><00:19:30.859><c> the</c><00:19:31.039><c> holy</c><00:19:31.359><c> angels</c><00:19:31.799><c> and</c><00:19:32.059><c> in</c><00:19:32.200><c> the</c><00:19:32.460><c> presence</c><00:19:32.720><c> of</c>

the<00:19:33.119><c> lamb.</c>

00:19:35.019 --> 00:19:37.960
So<00:19:35.240><c> how</c><00:19:35.460><c> important</c><00:19:35.980><c> is</c><00:19:36.220><c> it</c><00:19:36.400><c> that</c><00:19:36.559><c> we</c><00:19:36.779><c> understand</c><00:19:37.359><c> what</c><00:19:37.700><c> these</c>

symbols<00:19:38.460><c> mean?</c>

00:19:39.700 --> 00:19:42.980
So<00:19:39.900><c> that</c><00:19:40.079><c> we</c><00:19:40.160><c> can</c><00:19:40.380><c> keep</c><00:19:40.640><c> ourselves</c><00:19:41.140><c> clear</c><00:19:41.579><c> of</c><00:19:41.779><c> them.</c>

00:19:43.220 --> 00:19:46.819
Because<00:19:43.500><c> if</c><00:19:43.700><c> we</c><00:19:43.940><c> are</c><00:19:44.180><c> found</c><00:19:44.440><c> implicated</c><00:19:45.220><c> in</c><00:19:45.480><c> any</c><00:19:45.819><c> way...</c>

00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:49.839

00:23:06.519 --> 00:23:10.319

dear<00:31:08.599><c> brothers</c><00:31:08.819><c> and</c><00:31:09.019><c> sisters,</c>

00:31:09.700 --> 00:31:12.240
because<00:31:09.779><c> there's</c><00:31:10.079><c> no</c><00:31:10.380><c> blessing</c><00:31:10.720><c> anywhere</c><00:31:11.220><c> else.</c>

00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:15.960
You're<00:31:12.839><c> not</c><00:31:13.099><c> going</c><00:31:13.279><c> to</c><00:31:13.440><c> find</c><00:31:13.700><c> it</c><00:31:13.940><c> anywhere</c><00:31:14.440><c> else</c><00:31:14.859><c> at</c><00:31:15.079><c> all.</c>

00:31:16.779 --> 00:31:18.039
So<00:31:16.960><c> we</c><00:31:17.180><c> have</c><00:31:17.359><c> to</c><00:31:17.559><c> hold</c><00:31:17.839><c> on.</c>

00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:21.740
So<00:31:18.279><c> even</c><00:31:18.519><c> if</c><00:31:18.880><c> it</c><00:31:18.880><c> seems</c><00:31:19.259><c> everything</c><00:31:19.859><c> is</c><00:31:20.160><c> against</c><00:31:20.539><c> you,</c>

00:31:21.960 --> 00:31:25.779
if<00:31:22.119><c> it</c><00:31:22.359><c> seems</c><00:31:22.740><c> brothers</c><00:31:23.299><c> and</c><00:31:23.579><c> sisters</c><00:31:23.819><c> are</c><00:31:24.099><c> against</c><00:31:24.359><c> you</c><00:31:24.619><c> sometimes,</c>

00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:28.259
don't<00:31:26.839><c> give</c><00:31:27.279><c> up</c><00:31:27.500><c> on</c><00:31:27.640><c> it.</c>

00:31:28.740 --> 00:31:30.359
Hold<00:31:29.240><c> fast.</c>

00:31:31.019 --> 00:31:34.940
Sometimes<00:31:31.619><c> your</c><00:31:31.980><c> own</c><00:31:32.440><c> failings</c><00:31:32.900><c> are</c><00:31:33.099><c> against</c><00:31:33.480><c> you.</c>

00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:36.420
Don't<00:31:35.299><c> give</c><00:31:35.559><c> up.</c>

00:31:36.759 --> 00:31:38.220
Hold<00:31:37.019><c> on.</c>

00:31:38.420 --> 00:31:40.160
Hold<00:31:38.619><c> on</c><00:31:38.880><c> for</c><00:31:39.059><c> the</c><00:31:39.220><c> blessing.</c>

00:31:44.900 --> 00:31:50.140
But,<00:31:45.180><c> you</c><00:31:45.180><c> know,</c><00:31:46.200><c> it</c><00:31:46.359><c> is</c><00:31:46.680><c> clear</c><00:31:47.200><c> from</c><00:31:49.079><c> the</c><00:31:49.220><c> book</c><00:31:49.380><c> of</c><00:31:49.640><c> Revelation,</c>

00:31:50.319 --> 00:31:52.839
from<00:31:50.740><c> the</c><00:31:50.920><c> New</c><00:31:51.140><c> Testament,</c><00:31:51.700><c> in</c><00:31:51.940><c> fact,</c>

00:31:53.359 --> 00:31:55.660
and<00:31:53.519><c> the</c><00:31:53.720><c> Old,</c><00:31:53.880><c> if</c><00:31:54.019><c> we</c><00:31:54.140><c> look</c><00:31:54.319><c> at</c><00:31:54.480><c> it,</c>

00:31:55.660 --> 00:32:01.000
that<00:31:56.200><c> a</c><00:31:56.660><c> falling</c><00:31:56.980><c> away</c><00:31:57.500><c> from</c><00:31:57.759><c> the</c><00:31:58.019><c> faith</c><00:31:58.500><c> is</c><00:31:59.819><c> inevitable.</c>

00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:05.980
Now<00:32:01.579><c> the</c><00:32:01.680><c> last</c><00:32:01.960><c> thing</c><00:32:02.160><c> I</c><00:32:02.319><c> want</c><00:32:02.579><c> to</c><00:32:02.819><c> do</c><00:32:02.920><c> is</c><00:32:03.180><c> to</c><00:32:03.420><c> inject</c><00:32:03.980><c> a</c><00:32:04.720><c> negative</c><00:32:05.519><c> tone</c>

into<00:32:06.240><c> things.</c>

00:32:06.539 --> 00:32:09.220
I'm<00:32:06.619><c> much</c><00:32:07.079><c> happier</c><00:32:07.460><c> talking</c><00:32:07.799><c> about</c><00:32:08.180><c> the</c><00:32:08.380><c> positive</c><00:32:08.839><c> things.</c>

00:32:09.359 --> 00:32:10.920
But<00:32:09.519><c> brothers</c><00:32:09.720><c> and</c><00:32:09.960><c> sisters,</c>

00:32:11.180 --> 00:32:17.019
it<00:32:11.279><c> is</c><00:32:11.539><c> inevitable</c><00:32:12.240><c> that</c><00:32:13.240><c> a</c><00:32:13.500><c> falling</c><00:32:13.779><c> away</c><00:32:14.220><c> from</c><00:32:14.420><c> the</c><00:32:14.700><c> faith</c><00:32:15.319><c> happens.</c>

00:32:17.539 --> 00:32:19.880
It's<00:32:17.920><c> happened</c><00:32:18.140><c> in</c><00:32:18.299><c> all</c><00:32:18.420><c> down</c><00:32:18.660><c> history.</c>

00:32:20.460 --> 00:32:24.660
And<00:32:20.680><c> so</c><00:32:20.799><c> we</c><00:32:21.000><c> have</c><00:32:21.160><c> to</c><00:32:21.500><c> continue</c><00:32:22.000><c> in</c><00:32:22.859><c> the</c><00:32:23.119><c> faith</c><00:32:23.400><c> and</c><00:32:23.660><c> in</c><00:32:23.900><c> those</c><00:32:24.099><c> things</c>

00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:47.960

00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:55.019
We've<00:32:52.480><c> talked</c><00:32:52.740><c> a</c><00:32:52.839><c> lot</c><00:32:53.099><c> already</c><00:32:53.599><c> about</c><00:32:53.900><c> the</c><00:32:54.140><c> hope</c><00:32:54.299><c> of</c><00:32:54.519><c> the</c><00:32:54.640><c> gospel.</c>
