00:20:31.559 --> 00:20:36.440

but<00:20:41.220><c> it's</c><00:20:41.759><c> worthwhile</c><00:20:43.460><c> filling</c><00:20:46.099><c> it</c><00:20:46.400><c> out.</c>

00:20:47.759 --> 00:20:52.660
And<00:20:48.000><c> if</c><00:20:48.380><c> we</c><00:20:48.680><c> feel</c><00:20:48.960><c> we</c><00:20:49.180><c> can't</c><00:20:49.480><c> fill</c><00:20:49.660><c> it</c><00:20:49.880><c> out,</c><00:20:50.960><c> then</c><00:20:51.140><c> what</c><00:20:52.380><c> are</c><00:20:52.519><c> we</c>

00:20:52.660 --> 00:20:53.579
doing<00:20:52.900><c> wrong</c>

00:20:53.579 --> 00:20:56.400
that<00:20:53.880><c> we</c><00:20:54.200><c> feel</c><00:20:54.440><c> we</c><00:20:54.640><c> can't</c><00:20:55.380><c> say</c><00:20:55.660><c> this</c><00:20:55.900><c> to</c><00:20:56.079><c> God?</c>

00:20:56.500 --> 00:20:58.960
I<00:20:56.500><c> mean,</c><00:20:57.559><c> it</c><00:20:57.779><c> really</c><00:20:58.079><c> will</c><00:20:58.500><c> mean</c><00:20:58.700><c> this.</c>

00:20:59.000 --> 00:21:04.599
It<00:20:59.160><c> means</c><00:20:59.279><c> that</c><00:20:59.480><c> we</c><00:20:59.619><c> haven't</c><00:21:00.519><c> let</c><00:21:00.859><c> chapter</c><00:21:01.299><c> 9</c><00:21:02.599><c> sink</c><00:21:03.359><c> down</c><00:21:04.180><c> in.</c>

00:21:04.900 --> 00:21:07.380
So<00:21:05.180><c> let's</c><00:21:05.400><c> look</c><00:21:05.619><c> at</c><00:21:05.759><c> chapter</c><00:21:06.079><c> 9,</c><00:21:06.400><c> which</c><00:21:06.559><c> was</c><00:21:06.759><c> read</c><00:21:06.940><c> in</c><00:21:07.160><c> our</c>

00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:16.400
and<00:21:08.900><c> see</c><00:21:08.900><c> if</c><00:21:10.920><c> we</c><00:21:11.440><c> can't,</c><00:21:12.779><c> by</c><00:21:13.460><c> reading</c><00:21:13.920><c> it</c><00:21:14.779><c> and</c><00:21:15.059><c> meditating</c><00:21:15.539><c> upon</c><00:21:15.880><c> it</c>

00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:18.000
and<00:21:16.720><c> reflecting</c><00:21:17.319><c> upon</c><00:21:17.680><c> it</c>

00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:23.420
and<00:21:18.180><c> recognizing</c><00:21:18.799><c> our</c><00:21:19.119><c> need,</c><00:21:20.940><c> be</c><00:21:21.200><c> drawn</c><00:21:21.539><c> to</c><00:21:21.819><c> repentance</c><00:21:22.539><c> so</c>

00:21:23.420 --> 00:21:26.039
that<00:21:23.579><c> we</c><00:21:23.660><c> can</c><00:21:23.960><c> make</c><00:21:24.259><c> this</c><00:21:24.720><c> renewal</c><00:21:25.519><c> covenant.</c>

00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:31.200
Now,<00:21:26.539><c> what</c><00:21:26.660><c> I</c><00:21:26.799><c> have</c><00:21:26.940><c> done</c><00:21:27.180><c> in</c><00:21:27.380><c> Nehemiah</c><00:21:27.839><c> chapter</c><00:21:28.299><c> 9,</c><00:21:29.940><c> I</c><00:21:30.279><c> have</c>

00:21:35.380 --> 00:21:37.539
Now,<00:21:35.660><c> you</c><00:21:35.759><c> may</c><00:21:35.880><c> say,</c><00:21:36.000><c> well,</c><00:21:36.279><c> why</c><00:21:36.680><c> would</c><00:21:36.859><c> you</c><00:21:37.019><c> do</c><00:21:37.259><c> that?</c>

00:21:37.539 --> 00:21:42.440

Chapter<00:33:17.319><c> 11</c><00:33:17.720><c> brings</c><00:33:18.119><c> us</c><00:33:18.440><c> to</c><00:33:18.599><c> the</c><00:33:18.779><c> problem</c>

00:33:23.339 --> 00:33:26.880
They<00:33:23.819><c> needed</c><00:33:24.119><c> to</c><00:33:24.299><c> have</c><00:33:24.599><c> more</c><00:33:25.940><c> brothers</c><00:33:26.240><c> and</c><00:33:26.420><c> sisters</c>

00:33:29.220 --> 00:33:31.440
It<00:33:29.259><c> was</c><00:33:29.420><c> a</c><00:33:29.519><c> great</c><00:33:29.660><c> sacrifice</c><00:33:30.200><c> to</c><00:33:30.400><c> live</c><00:33:30.500><c> inside</c><00:33:30.839><c> the</c><00:33:31.039><c> wall</c>

00:33:31.940 --> 00:33:35.380
because<00:33:32.420><c> the</c><00:33:32.799><c> farmlands</c><00:33:33.420><c> and</c><00:33:33.720><c> the</c><00:33:33.900><c> flocks</c><00:33:34.079><c> were</c><00:33:34.339><c> outside,</c>

00:33:36.900 --> 00:33:37.980
so<00:33:36.940><c> it</c><00:33:37.099><c> meant</c><00:33:37.240><c> giving</c><00:33:37.480><c> up</c><00:33:37.759><c> something</c>

00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:42.140
And<00:33:40.539><c> so</c><00:33:40.660><c> the</c><00:33:40.859><c> rulers</c><00:33:41.079><c> of</c><00:33:41.200><c> the</c><00:33:41.380><c> people</c>

00:33:45.779 --> 00:33:48.119
to<00:33:46.000><c> bring</c><00:33:46.319><c> one</c><00:33:46.700><c> of</c><00:33:46.940><c> ten</c><00:33:47.099><c> to</c><00:33:47.319><c> dwell</c><00:33:47.559><c> in</c><00:33:47.720><c> Jerusalem,</c>

the<00:33:48.400><c> holy</c><00:33:48.599><c> city,</c>

00:33:49.000 --> 00:33:51.339

00:33:51.700 --> 00:33:52.599
So<00:33:51.859><c> they</c><00:33:52.079><c> cast</c><00:33:52.359><c> lots.</c>

00:33:52.640 --> 00:33:54.420
It<00:33:52.640><c> was,</c><00:33:53.039><c> okay,</c><00:33:53.240><c> you</c><00:33:53.359><c> have</c><00:33:53.539><c> to</c><00:33:53.720><c> live</c><00:33:54.079><c> in</c><00:33:54.279><c> Jerusalem,</c>

00:33:57.579 --> 00:33:59.259
But<00:33:58.019><c> there</c><00:33:58.460><c> was</c><00:33:58.619><c> a</c><00:33:58.819><c> group</c><00:33:58.960><c> that</c><00:33:59.180><c> said,</c>

And<00:34:05.980><c> the</c><00:34:06.140><c> people</c><00:34:06.400><c> blessed</c><00:34:06.859><c> all</c><00:34:07.259><c> the</c><00:34:07.420><c> men</c>

00:34:12.760 --> 00:34:16.219

If<00:34:34.500><c> someone</c><00:34:34.760><c> asks</c><00:34:35.039><c> us</c><00:34:35.199><c> to</c><00:34:35.300><c> do</c><00:34:35.400><c> something,</c>

It's<00:34:42.340><c> good</c><00:34:42.460><c> if</c><00:34:42.599><c> we</c><00:34:42.719><c> can</c><00:34:42.860><c> live</c><00:34:43.000><c> near</c><00:34:43.179><c> the</c><00:34:43.460><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:34:44.699 --> 00:34:46.239
It's<00:34:45.019><c> good</c><00:34:45.199><c> if</c><00:34:45.360><c> we</c><00:34:45.440><c> can</c><00:34:45.679><c> be</c><00:34:45.920><c> near,</c>

00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:50.079
the<00:34:48.800><c> harder</c><00:34:49.019><c> it</c><00:34:49.199><c> is</c><00:34:49.280><c> to</c><00:34:49.360><c> get</c><00:34:49.599><c> to</c><00:34:49.820><c> things.</c>

00:34:50.280 --> 00:34:53.179
But<00:34:50.400><c> I</c><00:34:50.539><c> know</c><00:34:50.739><c> people</c><00:34:51.039><c> who</c><00:34:51.239><c> live</c><00:34:51.400><c> quite</c><00:34:51.639><c> a</c><00:34:51.800><c> long</c><00:34:51.980><c> ways,</c>

00:34:53.579 --> 00:34:55.000
and<00:34:53.760><c> they</c><00:34:53.880><c> are</c><00:34:54.179><c> always</c><00:34:54.519><c> there.</c>

00:34:55.400 --> 00:34:56.840
And<00:34:55.519><c> it's</c><00:34:55.659><c> an</c><00:34:55.739><c> interesting</c><00:34:56.039><c> thing</c><00:34:56.320><c> that</c><00:34:56.440><c> some</c><00:34:56.639><c> of</c><00:34:56.719><c> those</c>

00:34:56.840 --> 00:34:58.519
that<00:34:57.000><c> live</c><00:34:57.099><c> a</c><00:34:57.239><c> long</c><00:34:57.400><c> ways</c><00:34:57.599><c> off</c><00:34:57.780><c> are</c><00:34:57.940><c> always</c><00:34:58.139><c> on</c><00:34:58.400><c> time,</c>

00:35:00.260 --> 00:35:01.400
Kind<00:35:00.480><c> of</c><00:35:00.599><c> funny.</c>

00:35:02.539 --> 00:35:04.800
But<00:35:02.820><c> there</c><00:35:03.039><c> are</c><00:35:03.219><c> some</c><00:35:03.420><c> who</c><00:35:04.219><c> make</c><00:35:04.420><c> an</c><00:35:04.619><c> effort,</c>

00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:06.920
and<00:35:04.960><c> they'll</c><00:35:05.280><c> be</c><00:35:05.519><c> there.</c>

00:35:07.199 --> 00:35:10.659
And<00:35:07.599><c> there</c><00:35:07.739><c> are</c><00:35:07.860><c> those</c><00:35:08.159><c> who</c><00:35:08.820><c> could</c><00:35:09.039><c> walk</c><00:35:09.360><c> there</c>

00:35:11.539 --> 00:35:14.619
and<00:35:11.940><c> never</c><00:35:12.340><c> quite</c><00:35:13.500><c> make</c><00:35:13.900><c> it.</c>

00:35:14.619 --> 00:35:18.059

Now,<00:37:15.920><c> when</c><00:37:16.099><c> we</c><00:37:16.260><c> were</c><00:37:16.400><c> in</c><00:37:16.599><c> Jerusalem,</c><00:37:17.000><c> we</c><00:37:17.719><c> did</c><00:37:18.079><c> that.</c>

00:37:19.119 --> 00:37:22.480
We<00:37:19.599><c> spent</c><00:37:19.800><c> a</c><00:37:19.960><c> whole</c><00:37:20.199><c> afternoon</c><00:37:20.619><c> walking</c><00:37:21.119><c> the</c><00:37:21.519><c> walls</c><00:37:22.019><c> of</c><00:37:22.420><c> the</c>

00:37:25.820 --> 00:37:29.079
