00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:57.159
Good<00:01:57.159><c> afternoon.</c>

00:02:00.459 --> 00:02:07.540
So<00:02:00.980><c> in</c><00:02:01.500><c> case</c><00:02:01.579><c> you're</c><00:02:01.780><c> wondering,</c><00:02:03.000><c> I'm</c><00:02:06.159><c> 6</c><00:02:06.400><c> foot</c><00:02:06.640><c> 7.</c>

00:02:09.259 --> 00:02:09.840
All<00:02:09.580><c> right?</c>

00:02:10.039 --> 00:02:13.159
There<00:02:10.560><c> was</c><00:02:10.639><c> some</c><00:02:10.840><c> discussion</c><00:02:11.379><c> about</c><00:02:11.740><c> that,</c><00:02:12.460><c> perhaps</c><00:02:12.860><c> even</c>

00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:14.439
during<00:02:13.400><c> one</c><00:02:13.580><c> of</c><00:02:13.680><c> the</c><00:02:13.819><c> classes,</c><00:02:14.120><c> but</c><00:02:14.259><c> now</c>

00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:19.419
that<00:02:14.560><c> we've</c><00:02:15.400><c> settled</c><00:02:15.400><c> the</c><00:02:17.039><c> subject</c><00:02:17.539><c> of</c><00:02:18.120><c> the</c><00:02:18.360><c> discussion,</c>

00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:24.240
that<00:02:21.060><c> I'm</c><00:02:21.219><c> 6</c><00:02:21.500><c>'7",</c><00:02:21.919><c> and</c><00:02:22.539><c> I</c><00:02:22.979><c> have</c><00:02:23.139><c> played</c><00:02:23.340><c> basketball</c><00:02:23.780><c> in</c><00:02:23.939><c> the</c><00:02:24.060><c> past.</c>

00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:24.919
It's<00:02:24.460><c> embarrassing.</c>

00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:26.840
I<00:02:25.219><c> don't</c><00:02:25.360><c> want</c><00:02:25.500><c> to</c><00:02:25.599><c> talk</c><00:02:25.740><c> about</c><00:02:25.939><c> it.</c>

00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:32.039
So<00:02:27.539><c> that,</c><00:02:27.919><c> I</c><00:02:27.919><c> think,</c><00:02:28.180><c> we</c><00:02:28.860><c> can</c><00:02:28.979><c> move</c><00:02:29.199><c> along</c><00:02:29.419><c> to</c><00:02:29.979><c> our</c><00:02:30.719><c> third</c><00:02:31.020><c> class.</c>

00:02:34.340 --> 00:02:35.199
OK.

00:02:42.180 --> 00:02:44.259

But<00:10:02.240><c> now</c><00:10:02.559><c> you</c><00:10:02.879><c> personally,</c><00:10:04.519><c> your</c><00:10:04.600><c> mom</c><00:10:04.799><c> and</c><00:10:04.919><c> your</c><00:10:05.100><c> dad</c>

00:10:06.379 --> 00:10:08.100
And<00:10:06.659><c> you're</c><00:10:06.940><c> there</c><00:10:07.200><c> with</c><00:10:07.440><c> your</c><00:10:07.759><c> kids.</c>

00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:09.940
And<00:10:08.460><c> you're</c><00:10:08.679><c> coming</c><00:10:08.899><c> to</c><00:10:09.159><c> Shechem.</c>

00:10:10.460 --> 00:10:13.200
What<00:10:10.919><c> an</c><00:10:11.259><c> amazing</c><00:10:11.659><c> moment</c><00:10:11.960><c> that</c><00:10:12.159><c> would</c><00:10:12.340><c> be.</c>

00:10:14.259 --> 00:10:16.059
And<00:10:14.360><c> so</c><00:10:14.519><c> what</c><00:10:14.679><c> happens?</c>

00:10:16.779 --> 00:10:20.639
Verse<00:10:16.960><c> 30,</c><00:10:17.500><c> it</c><00:10:17.500><c> says,</c><00:10:17.799><c> then</c><00:10:18.539><c> Joshua</c><00:10:19.159><c> built</c><00:10:19.899><c> an</c><00:10:20.320><c> altar</c>

00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:22.759
unto<00:10:20.879><c> the</c><00:10:21.120><c> Lord</c><00:10:21.440><c> God</c><00:10:21.679><c> of</c><00:10:21.820><c> Israel</c><00:10:22.200><c> in</c><00:10:22.360><c> Mount</c><00:10:22.539><c> Ebal.</c>

00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:23.580
Isn't<00:10:23.019><c> that</c><00:10:23.200><c> awesome?</c>

00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:25.340
He<00:10:24.279><c> builds</c><00:10:24.440><c> an</c><00:10:24.639><c> altar.</c>

00:10:25.980 --> 00:10:31.700
Just<00:10:26.220><c> like</c><00:10:26.460><c> Abraham,</c><00:10:28.299><c> just</c><00:10:28.600><c> like</c><00:10:28.899><c> Jacob,</c><00:10:30.179><c> he</c><00:10:30.379><c> builds</c><00:10:30.620><c> an</c><00:10:30.899><c> altar.</c>

00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:34.259
But<00:10:32.700><c> here</c><00:10:32.879><c> the</c><00:10:33.059><c> altar</c><00:10:33.259><c> is</c><00:10:33.440><c> built</c><00:10:33.580><c> in</c><00:10:33.779><c> Mount</c><00:10:34.019><c> Ebal.</c>

00:10:34.279 --> 00:10:38.259
And<00:10:34.460><c> I</c><00:10:34.519><c> can't</c><00:10:35.320><c> tell</c><00:10:35.559><c> you</c><00:10:35.799><c> why</c><00:10:36.019><c> that's</c><00:10:36.320><c> the</c><00:10:36.480><c> case</c><00:10:36.899><c> in</c><00:10:37.879><c> this</c><00:10:38.100><c> class.</c>

00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:40.600
We<00:10:38.440><c> can</c><00:10:38.580><c> talk</c><00:10:38.799><c> about</c><00:10:39.000><c> that</c><00:10:39.299><c> another</c><00:10:39.480><c> time</c><00:10:39.779><c> outside</c><00:10:40.120><c> of</c><00:10:40.259><c> the</c><00:10:40.399><c> classes.</c>

00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:44.379
But<00:10:40.759><c> there's</c><00:10:41.019><c> a</c><00:10:41.159><c> reason</c><00:10:41.379><c> why</c><00:10:41.860><c> it's</c><00:10:42.659><c> in</c><00:10:43.139><c> Ebal.</c>

00:10:44.860 --> 00:10:46.279
You<00:10:45.039><c> think</c><00:10:45.179><c> the</c><00:10:45.399><c> altar</c><00:10:45.539><c> is</c><00:10:45.659><c> a</c><00:10:45.759><c> good</c><00:10:45.919><c> thing,</c><00:10:46.100><c> right?</c>

00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:47.259
Why<00:10:46.440><c> wouldn't</c><00:10:46.600><c> that</c><00:10:46.759><c> be</c><00:10:46.879><c> in</c><00:10:47.039><c> blessing?</c>

00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:49.539
Why<00:10:47.919><c> wouldn't</c><00:10:48.080><c> that</c><00:10:48.220><c> be</c><00:10:48.299><c> on</c><00:10:48.440><c> the</c><00:10:48.480><c> side</c><00:10:48.580><c> of</c><00:10:48.740><c> the</c><00:10:48.840><c> blessing?</c>

00:10:49.740 --> 00:10:51.399
Well,<00:10:50.299><c> there's</c><00:10:50.360><c> something</c><00:10:50.600><c> else</c><00:10:50.779><c> that</c><00:10:50.919><c> God's</c>

00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:52.720

00:10:53.080 --> 00:10:54.940
And<00:10:53.080><c> in</c><00:10:53.139><c> verse</c><00:10:53.379><c> 31,</c><00:10:53.860><c> it</c><00:10:53.879><c> says</c><00:10:54.159><c> that</c><00:10:54.720><c> it</c><00:10:54.759><c> was</c>

00:10:54.940 --> 00:10:56.879
done<00:10:55.220><c> as</c><00:10:55.539><c> Moses,</c><00:10:56.019><c> the</c><00:10:56.120><c> servant</c><00:10:56.340><c> of</c><00:10:56.539><c> the</c><00:10:56.679><c> Lord,</c>

00:10:57.360 --> 00:10:59.419

00:11:00.460 --> 00:11:02.259
As<00:11:00.600><c> it</c><00:11:00.740><c> is</c><00:11:00.919><c> written</c><00:11:01.120><c> in</c><00:11:01.259><c> the</c><00:11:01.399><c> book</c><00:11:01.500><c> of</c><00:11:01.620><c> the</c><00:11:01.779><c> law</c><00:11:01.879><c> of</c><00:11:02.039><c> Moses,</c>

00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:05.919
an<00:11:02.539><c> altar</c><00:11:02.860><c> of</c><00:11:03.259><c> whole</c><00:11:03.980><c> stones</c><00:11:04.700><c> over</c><00:11:05.179><c> which</c><00:11:05.419><c> no</c><00:11:05.720><c> man</c>

00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:10.720
And<00:11:08.059><c> they</c><00:11:08.259><c> offered</c><00:11:08.480><c> thereon</c><00:11:09.100><c> burnt</c><00:11:09.480><c> offerings</c><00:11:09.960><c> unto</c><00:11:10.240><c> the</c><00:11:10.480><c> Lord</c>

00:11:13.620 --> 00:11:14.580
Hey,<00:11:13.840><c> do</c><00:11:13.960><c> you</c><00:11:13.980><c> know</c><00:11:14.080><c> what</c><00:11:14.200><c> they</c><00:11:14.340><c> did?</c>

00:11:25.460 --> 00:11:26.679
That's<00:11:25.860><c> exactly</c><00:11:26.259><c> right.</c>

00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:28.220
It<00:11:27.240><c> burned.</c>

00:11:28.620 --> 00:11:32.440
And<00:11:28.820><c> it</c><00:11:29.059><c> burned</c><00:11:29.259><c> until</c><00:11:29.559><c> there</c><00:11:29.740><c> was</c><00:11:30.000><c> absolutely</c><00:11:30.980><c> nothing</c><00:11:31.539><c> left.</c>

00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:35.379
Hey,<00:11:33.980><c> what</c><00:11:34.139><c> about</c><00:11:34.240><c> a</c><00:11:34.440><c> peace</c><00:11:34.639><c> offering?</c>

00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:37.639
Do<00:11:36.279><c> you</c><00:11:36.279><c> know</c><00:11:36.360><c> what</c><00:11:36.419><c> you</c><00:11:36.460><c> did</c><00:11:36.519><c> with</c><00:11:36.620><c> a</c><00:11:36.759><c> peace</c><00:11:36.919><c> offering?</c>

00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:44.639
It<00:11:41.799><c> was</c><00:11:42.659><c> something</c><00:11:42.960><c> that</c><00:11:43.220><c> wasn't</c><00:11:43.500><c> totally</c><00:11:43.960><c> consumed.</c>

00:11:44.899 --> 00:11:46.519
It<00:11:44.980><c> was</c><00:11:45.220><c> actually</c><00:11:45.460><c> something</c><00:11:45.700><c> that</c><00:11:45.840><c> a</c><00:11:46.000><c> portion</c><00:11:46.320><c> of</c><00:11:46.500><c> you</c>

That's<00:11:52.720><c> what</c><00:11:52.820><c> happened</c><00:11:53.080><c> here.</c>

00:11:53.379 --> 00:11:55.919
This<00:11:53.419><c> is</c><00:11:53.820><c> a</c><00:11:54.019><c> big</c><00:11:55.179><c> potluck.</c>

00:11:56.399 --> 00:11:57.580
It's<00:11:56.580><c> a</c><00:11:56.659><c> big</c><00:11:56.840><c> Bible</c><00:11:57.179><c> school.</c>

00:12:15.899 --> 00:12:16.480
That's<00:12:16.159><c> what</c><00:12:16.200><c> I'm</c><00:12:16.320><c> saying.</c>

00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:05.879
But<00:13:04.279><c> you</c><00:13:04.399><c> get</c><00:13:04.500><c> the</c><00:13:04.659><c> point,</c><00:13:04.919><c> right?</c>

00:13:08.460 --> 00:13:12.360
And<00:13:08.860><c> it</c><00:13:09.000><c> says</c><00:13:09.059><c> at</c><00:13:09.240><c> the</c><00:13:09.360><c> very</c><00:13:09.559><c> end</c><00:13:09.960><c> that</c><00:13:10.220><c> there</c><00:13:10.440><c> was</c><00:13:10.740><c> not</c><00:13:11.019><c> a</c><00:13:11.360><c> word</c>

00:13:24.860 --> 00:13:26.620
You<00:13:24.980><c> know</c><00:13:25.019><c> what</c><00:13:25.059><c> that</c><00:13:25.240><c> word</c><00:13:25.440><c> conversant</c><00:13:25.840><c> means?</c>

00:13:26.779 --> 00:13:28.820
Somebody<00:13:27.080><c> call</c><00:13:27.320><c> out</c><00:13:27.940><c> in</c><00:13:28.419><c> your</c><00:13:28.559><c> Bible,</c>

00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:31.940
The<00:13:30.399><c> strangers</c><00:13:30.820><c> who</c>

00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:41.200
Walked.

00:13:41.379 --> 00:13:42.759
Yeah,<00:13:41.740><c> you</c><00:13:41.840><c> know</c><00:13:41.899><c> why?</c>

00:13:43.259 --> 00:13:46.980
Because<00:13:43.779><c> they</c><00:13:44.299><c> couldn't</c><00:13:45.039><c> walk</c><00:13:45.500><c> together</c>

00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:52.460
unless<00:13:49.960><c> they</c><00:13:50.139><c> were</c><00:13:50.379><c> keeping</c><00:13:50.759><c> all</c><00:13:51.340><c> the</c><00:13:51.600><c> law.</c>

00:13:54.500 --> 00:13:55.919
They<00:13:54.500><c> had</c><00:13:54.679><c> to</c><00:13:55.379><c> do</c><00:13:55.559><c> it</c><00:13:55.799><c> all.</c>

00:13:55.940 --> 00:13:57.559
That's<00:13:56.220><c> the</c><00:13:56.340><c> message</c><00:13:56.600><c> here.</c>

00:13:58.259 --> 00:14:01.519
They<00:13:58.399><c> had</c><00:13:58.580><c> to</c><00:13:58.779><c> understand</c><00:13:59.100><c> the</c><00:13:59.340><c> blessing</c><00:13:59.779><c> and</c><00:14:01.139><c> the</c><00:14:01.360><c> curse.</c>

00:14:01.779 --> 00:14:02.480
They<00:14:01.779><c> read</c><00:14:01.940><c> it</c><00:14:02.220><c> all.</c>

00:14:02.820 --> 00:14:03.820
Everybody.

00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:06.720
And<00:14:05.120><c> you</c><00:14:05.179><c> know</c><00:14:05.220><c> what</c><00:14:05.220><c> they</c><00:14:05.379><c> said</c><00:14:05.500><c> at</c><00:14:05.659><c> the</c><00:14:05.740><c> end?</c>

00:14:07.740 --> 00:14:08.600
Amen.

00:14:10.039 --> 00:14:10.299
Right?

00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:11.799
Is<00:14:10.879><c> that</c><00:14:11.100><c> hard?</c>

00:14:11.779 --> 00:14:12.919
It's<00:14:12.039><c> not</c><00:14:12.120><c> hard.</c>

00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:14.899
It's<00:14:13.919><c> hard.</c>

00:14:15.620 --> 00:14:16.659
In<00:14:15.720><c> practice.</c>

00:14:17.720 --> 00:14:19.960
That's<00:14:18.019><c> not</c><00:14:18.100><c> hard</c><00:14:18.279><c> to</c><00:14:18.480><c> understand,</c><00:14:18.879><c> is</c><00:14:18.879><c> it?</c>

00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:23.120
That's<00:14:22.059><c> Joshua</c><00:14:22.360><c> chapter</c><00:14:22.759><c> eight.</c>

00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:25.179
Now<00:14:23.519><c> there's</c><00:14:23.860><c> something</c><00:14:24.039><c> else</c><00:14:24.240><c> that's</c><00:14:24.620><c> absolutely</c>

00:14:25.179 --> 00:14:28.000
so<00:14:25.860><c> incredibly</c><00:14:26.580><c> instructive</c><00:14:27.399><c> here</c><00:14:27.740><c> about,</c>

00:14:28.100 --> 00:14:29.419

00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:32.340

00:16:57.179 --> 00:17:00.419
We<00:16:57.539><c> also</c><00:16:57.940><c> saw</c><00:16:58.159><c> the</c><00:16:58.419><c> blessing</c><00:16:58.899><c> of</c><00:17:00.000><c> truth.</c>

00:17:00.419 --> 00:17:02.779
All<00:17:00.919><c> the</c><00:17:01.120><c> people</c><00:17:01.279><c> would</c><00:17:01.500><c> say</c><00:17:01.740><c> amen.</c>

00:17:02.980 --> 00:17:04.259
And<00:17:03.059><c> there</c><00:17:03.100><c> were</c><00:17:03.279><c> great</c><00:17:03.480><c> blessings</c><00:17:03.840><c> in</c><00:17:04.119><c> store</c>

00:17:04.259 --> 00:17:05.859
for<00:17:04.420><c> those</c><00:17:04.640><c> who</c><00:17:04.759><c> would</c><00:17:04.940><c> keep</c><00:17:05.099><c> the</c><00:17:05.299><c> laws</c><00:17:05.440><c> that</c><00:17:05.720><c> said</c>

00:17:05.859 --> 00:17:08.460
in<00:17:06.180><c> the</c><00:17:06.359><c> beginning</c><00:17:06.559><c> of</c><00:17:06.720><c> Deuteronomy</c><00:17:07.160><c> chapter</c><00:17:07.480><c> 28.</c>

00:17:09.900 --> 00:17:13.220
But<00:17:10.019><c> there's</c><00:17:10.240><c> also</c><00:17:10.460><c> the</c><00:17:10.700><c> writing</c><00:17:11.079><c> and</c><00:17:11.980><c> the</c><00:17:12.359><c> reading.</c>

00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:17.539
So<00:17:14.339><c> when</c><00:17:14.519><c> you</c><00:17:14.640><c> look</c><00:17:14.819><c> at</c><00:17:15.359><c> Joshua</c><00:17:15.759><c> chapter</c><00:17:16.380><c> eight,</c><00:17:16.740><c> verse</c><00:17:16.900><c> 34,</c>

00:17:18.019 --> 00:17:21.000
it<00:17:18.220><c> says</c><00:17:18.380><c> after</c><00:17:18.740><c> he</c><00:17:18.900><c> did</c><00:17:19.059><c> that,</c><00:17:19.579><c> and</c><00:17:19.799><c> afterward</c><00:17:20.160><c> he</c><00:17:20.599><c> read</c>

00:17:21.000 --> 00:17:24.700
all<00:17:21.720><c> the</c><00:17:21.900><c> words</c><00:17:22.059><c> of</c><00:17:22.279><c> the</c><00:17:22.400><c> law,</c><00:17:22.759><c> the</c><00:17:23.059><c> blessings</c><00:17:23.559><c> and</c><00:17:24.099><c> cursings,</c>

00:17:24.799 --> 00:17:27.200
according<00:17:25.119><c> to</c><00:17:25.420><c> all</c><00:17:25.700><c> that</c><00:17:25.859><c> is</c><00:17:26.019><c> written</c><00:17:26.299><c> in</c><00:17:26.660><c> the</c><00:17:26.759><c> book</c><00:17:26.880><c> of</c><00:17:27.019><c> the</c><00:17:27.099><c> law.</c>

00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:30.700
Not<00:17:27.420><c> a</c><00:17:27.619><c> word</c><00:17:27.980><c> of</c><00:17:29.779><c> all</c><00:17:29.980><c> that</c><00:17:30.099><c> Moses</c><00:17:30.299><c> commanded</c>

00:17:30.700 --> 00:17:33.920
that<00:17:30.960><c> Joshua</c><00:17:31.420><c> did</c><00:17:32.440><c> not</c><00:17:32.839><c> read</c><00:17:33.160><c> before</c><00:17:33.619><c> them</c><00:17:33.799><c> all.</c>

00:17:33.940 --> 00:17:36.240
So<00:17:34.079><c> he</c><00:17:34.180><c> writes</c><00:17:34.420><c> it</c><00:17:34.559><c> all</c><00:17:34.740><c> out,</c><00:17:35.299><c> and</c><00:17:35.500><c> he</c><00:17:35.619><c> reads</c><00:17:35.859><c> it</c><00:17:36.019><c> all</c><00:17:36.160><c> out.</c>

00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:39.279
You<00:17:36.359><c> could</c><00:17:36.539><c> imagine</c><00:17:36.900><c> like</c><00:17:37.319><c> Joshua</c><00:17:38.259><c> reciting</c><00:17:38.779><c> it,</c>

00:17:39.519 --> 00:17:40.920
or<00:17:39.559><c> writing</c><00:17:39.940><c> it</c><00:17:40.200><c> and</c><00:17:40.279><c> then</c><00:17:40.460><c> reciting</c><00:17:40.779><c> it,</c>

00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:43.259
and<00:17:41.000><c> then</c><00:17:41.099><c> maybe</c><00:17:41.240><c> the</c><00:17:41.400><c> Levites</c><00:17:41.740><c> calling</c><00:17:42.119><c> it</c><00:17:42.380><c> out,</c>

00:17:43.559 --> 00:17:45.920
and<00:17:43.740><c> the</c><00:17:43.960><c> people</c><00:17:44.160><c> agreeing</c><00:17:44.599><c> with</c><00:17:44.799><c> what</c><00:17:44.940><c> they</c><00:17:45.160><c> heard.</c>

00:17:46.380 --> 00:17:47.319
Everybody<00:17:46.799><c> heard</c><00:17:47.039><c> it.</c>

00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:51.359
And<00:17:47.819><c> it</c><00:17:47.920><c> was</c><00:17:48.099><c> a</c><00:17:48.380><c> copy</c><00:17:48.700><c> put</c><00:17:49.019><c> right</c><00:17:49.299><c> up</c><00:17:49.559><c> there</c><00:17:49.900><c> in</c><00:17:50.220><c> Mount</c><00:17:50.539><c> Ebal.</c>

00:17:52.660 --> 00:17:55.140
And<00:17:52.940><c> it</c><00:17:53.059><c> was</c><00:17:53.319><c> plastered</c><00:17:53.759><c> on</c><00:17:54.019><c> stones.</c>

00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:58.019
So<00:17:56.079><c> you</c><00:17:56.200><c> could</c><00:17:56.359><c> read</c><00:17:56.480><c> the</c><00:17:56.599><c> Bible</c><00:17:56.799><c> up</c><00:17:56.980><c> on</c><00:17:57.140><c> Mount</c><00:17:57.279><c> Ebal.</c>

00:17:58.279 --> 00:17:59.839
You<00:17:58.680><c> could</c><00:17:59.079><c> read</c><00:17:59.339><c> it</c><00:17:59.480><c> up</c><00:17:59.640><c> there.</c>

00:17:59.980 --> 00:18:02.079
It<00:18:00.059><c> was</c><00:18:00.279><c> written</c><00:18:00.460><c> up</c><00:18:00.660><c> there</c><00:18:00.779><c> for</c><00:18:00.940><c> that</c><00:18:01.079><c> purpose.</c>

00:18:02.619 --> 00:18:04.099
For<00:18:02.880><c> everyone</c><00:18:03.180><c> to</c><00:18:03.339><c> be</c><00:18:03.460><c> able</c><00:18:03.619><c> to</c><00:18:03.819><c> see,</c>

00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:06.660
and<00:18:04.740><c> for</c><00:18:04.940><c> everyone</c><00:18:05.180><c> to</c><00:18:05.299><c> be</c><00:18:05.380><c> able</c><00:18:05.500><c> to</c><00:18:05.599><c> look</c><00:18:05.740><c> at</c><00:18:05.880><c> and</c><00:18:06.000><c> say</c>

00:18:06.819 --> 00:18:10.839
we<00:18:07.220><c> agree</c><00:18:07.619><c> with</c><00:18:07.920><c> that,</c><00:18:08.359><c> and</c><00:18:08.619><c> we'll</c><00:18:08.859><c> walk</c><00:18:09.119><c> together</c><00:18:09.619><c> on</c><00:18:09.980><c> that.</c>

00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:17.039
That's<00:18:12.240><c> not</c><00:18:12.339><c> a</c><00:18:12.460><c> hard</c><00:18:12.599><c> message,</c><00:18:13.500><c> but</c><00:18:15.380><c> it's</c><00:18:15.579><c> hard</c><00:18:15.720><c> to</c><00:18:15.940><c> practice.</c>

00:18:22.220 --> 00:18:25.160
Well,<00:18:22.819><c> we</c><00:18:22.819><c> read</c><00:18:23.039><c> that,</c><00:18:23.579><c> have</c><00:18:23.740><c> I</c><00:18:23.920><c> emphasized</c><00:18:24.299><c> that</c>

00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:27.079
all<00:18:25.640><c> Israel</c><00:18:25.900><c> was</c><00:18:26.059><c> to</c><00:18:26.140><c> be</c><00:18:26.259><c> there?</c>

00:18:27.180 --> 00:18:28.839
I<00:18:27.279><c> think</c><00:18:27.319><c> we've</c><00:18:27.680><c> done</c><00:18:27.819><c> that</c><00:18:28.019><c> enough.</c>

00:18:29.660 --> 00:18:32.019
All<00:18:29.960><c> Israel</c><00:18:30.420><c> was</c><00:18:30.759><c> to</c><00:18:30.920><c> be</c><00:18:31.039><c> there.</c>

00:18:34.980 --> 00:18:37.539
It<00:18:35.240><c> wouldn't</c><00:18:35.440><c> make</c><00:18:35.660><c> sense</c><00:18:35.880><c> for</c><00:18:36.079><c> God</c><00:18:36.220><c> to</c><00:18:36.460><c> say,</c>

00:18:37.619 --> 00:18:41.039
strangers,<00:18:39.559><c> those</c><00:18:39.759><c> who</c><00:18:39.920><c> are</c><00:18:40.019><c> not</c><00:18:40.200><c> of</c><00:18:40.440><c> Israelite</c><00:18:40.799><c> blood</c>

00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:43.319
or<00:18:41.240><c> Jewish</c><00:18:41.440><c> blood,</c><00:18:42.099><c> here</c><00:18:42.319><c> is</c><00:18:42.599><c> your</c><00:18:42.880><c> truth,</c>

00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:45.460
and<00:18:43.900><c> then</c><00:18:44.000><c> to</c><00:18:44.099><c> go</c><00:18:44.240><c> over</c><00:18:44.400><c> here</c><00:18:44.559><c> to</c><00:18:44.680><c> another</c><00:18:44.859><c> group</c><00:18:45.079><c> and</c><00:18:45.279><c> say,</c>

00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:46.519
okay,<00:18:45.779><c> this</c><00:18:46.000><c> is</c><00:18:46.299><c> yours,</c><00:18:46.519><c> and</c><00:18:46.519><c> this</c><00:18:46.519><c> is</c><00:18:46.519><c> mine,</c>

00:18:46.519 --> 00:18:48.599
and<00:18:47.000><c> this</c><00:18:47.160><c> is</c><00:18:47.480><c> yours,</c><00:18:47.839><c> and</c><00:18:47.960><c> it's</c><00:18:48.299><c> different,</c>

00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:49.859
and<00:18:48.740><c> it's</c><00:18:48.960><c> different</c><00:18:49.240><c> over</c><00:18:49.519><c> here.</c>

00:18:50.220 --> 00:18:52.599
No,<00:18:50.559><c> this</c><00:18:50.819><c> is</c><00:18:51.420><c> how</c><00:18:51.619><c> it</c><00:18:51.839><c> ought</c><00:18:51.960><c> to</c><00:18:52.160><c> be.</c>

00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:55.900
And<00:18:53.200><c> there's</c><00:18:54.000><c> a</c><00:18:54.220><c> simplicity</c><00:18:54.839><c> and</c><00:18:55.119><c> a</c><00:18:55.440><c> sincerity</c>

00:18:55.900 --> 00:18:58.559
behind<00:18:56.859><c> all</c><00:18:57.339><c> that's</c><00:18:57.599><c> being</c><00:18:57.799><c> done</c><00:18:58.039><c> here,</c>

00:18:58.839 --> 00:19:01.559
so<00:18:59.039><c> that</c><00:18:59.299><c> everyone</c><00:18:59.539><c> might</c><00:18:59.839><c> know</c><00:19:00.160><c> the</c><00:19:00.440><c> truth</c>

00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:04.559
behind<00:19:02.099><c> those</c><00:19:02.420><c> things</c><00:19:02.799><c> which</c><00:19:03.160><c> they</c><00:19:03.440><c> stood</c><00:19:03.619><c> for.</c>

00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:09.900
They<00:19:06.200><c> all</c><00:19:06.799><c> heard</c><00:19:07.400><c> and</c><00:19:07.819><c> said</c><00:19:08.019><c> amen</c><00:19:08.460><c> to</c><00:19:08.700><c> these</c><00:19:08.960><c> things.</c>

00:19:10.339 --> 00:19:12.400
And<00:19:10.660><c> where</c><00:19:10.859><c> there</c><00:19:11.019><c> is</c><00:19:11.259><c> sincerity</c><00:19:11.680><c> and</c><00:19:11.960><c> truthfulness,</c>

00:19:12.660 --> 00:19:14.119
it's<00:19:12.900><c> an</c><00:19:13.000><c> easy</c><00:19:13.200><c> go.</c>

00:19:15.259 --> 00:19:17.559
And<00:19:15.619><c> that</c><00:19:15.759><c> is</c><00:19:15.960><c> the</c><00:19:16.099><c> lesson</c><00:19:16.279><c> to</c><00:19:16.480><c> us.</c>

00:19:20.960 --> 00:19:22.299

00:20:09.259 --> 00:20:11.660
and<00:20:09.859><c> why</c><00:20:10.079><c> those</c><00:20:10.359><c> tribes</c><00:20:10.579><c> are</c><00:20:10.759><c> there.</c>

00:20:12.299 --> 00:20:13.980
And<00:20:12.660><c> I'll</c><00:20:12.839><c> tell</c><00:20:12.960><c> you</c><00:20:13.099><c> about</c><00:20:13.240><c> it</c><00:20:13.359><c> on</c><00:20:13.480><c> the</c><00:20:13.599><c> next</c><00:20:13.759><c> slide.</c>

00:20:14.019 --> 00:20:15.339
This<00:20:14.140><c> is</c><00:20:14.240><c> what</c><00:20:14.299><c> I've</c><00:20:14.559><c> found.</c>

00:20:16.319 --> 00:20:18.079
That's<00:20:16.579><c> what</c><00:20:16.640><c> I</c><00:20:16.759><c> think</c><00:20:16.839><c> the</c><00:20:17.019><c> answer</c><00:20:17.200><c> is.</c>

00:20:18.460 --> 00:20:20.019
I<00:20:18.700><c> have</c><00:20:18.839><c> no</c><00:20:19.000><c> idea</c><00:20:19.119><c> what</c><00:20:19.220><c> it</c><00:20:19.339><c> means.</c>

00:20:20.460 --> 00:20:21.900
I<00:20:20.460><c> don't,</c><00:20:20.640><c> this</c><00:20:20.819><c> is</c><00:20:20.980><c> one</c><00:20:21.079><c> of</c><00:20:21.200><c> my</c><00:20:21.480><c> greatest,</c>

00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:23.960
I<00:20:22.579><c> would</c><00:20:22.819><c> love</c><00:20:22.960><c> to</c><00:20:23.099><c> know</c><00:20:23.160><c> the</c><00:20:23.319><c> answer</c><00:20:23.539><c> to</c><00:20:23.700><c> this.</c>

00:20:24.339 --> 00:20:26.059
But<00:20:24.519><c> I</c><00:20:24.720><c> put</c><00:20:24.819><c> that</c><00:20:25.019><c> to</c><00:20:25.160><c> you</c><00:20:25.259><c> just</c><00:20:25.460><c> to</c><00:20:25.640><c> say</c><00:20:25.759><c> that</c>

00:20:26.059 --> 00:20:28.299
it's<00:20:26.299><c> not</c><00:20:26.400><c> like</c><00:20:26.599><c> I've</c><00:20:26.859><c> gotten</c><00:20:27.079><c> Shechem</c><00:20:27.440><c> all</c><00:20:27.799><c> figured</c><00:20:28.039><c> out,</c>

00:20:28.299 --> 00:20:29.039
because<00:20:28.440><c> I</c><00:20:28.599><c> don't.</c>

00:20:29.160 --> 00:20:30.599
I've<00:20:29.359><c> talked</c><00:20:29.440><c> to</c><00:20:29.599><c> lots</c><00:20:29.720><c> of</c><00:20:29.900><c> brethren,</c>

00:20:30.740 --> 00:20:33.279
and<00:20:31.099><c> I'll</c><00:20:31.460><c> ask,</c><00:20:31.779><c> hey,</c><00:20:31.900><c> why</c><00:20:32.059><c> is</c><00:20:32.160><c> that</c><00:20:32.339><c> tribe</c><00:20:32.460><c> there?</c>

00:20:33.319 --> 00:20:35.539
They're<00:20:33.539><c> like,</c><00:20:34.920><c> I</c><00:20:35.140><c> don't</c><00:20:35.299><c> know.</c>

00:20:35.680 --> 00:20:36.640
And<00:20:35.960><c> sometimes</c><00:20:36.259><c> you</c><00:20:36.380><c> can</c><00:20:36.519><c> say,</c>

00:20:36.640 --> 00:20:39.339
well,<00:20:36.819><c> it</c><00:20:36.920><c> makes</c><00:20:37.099><c> sense</c><00:20:37.380><c> that</c><00:20:37.700><c> certain</c><00:20:37.980><c> are</c><00:20:38.519><c> on</c><00:20:38.759><c> either</c><00:20:39.019><c> side,</c>

00:20:39.339 --> 00:20:42.200
but<00:20:39.640><c> then</c><00:20:40.000><c> you've</c><00:20:40.240><c> got</c><00:20:40.380><c> like</c><00:20:40.720><c> contradictions</c><00:20:41.140><c> in</c><00:20:41.400><c> tribes.</c>

00:20:42.900 --> 00:20:44.099
What's<00:20:43.299><c> that?</c>

00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:46.059
Yeah,<00:20:44.619><c> you</c><00:20:44.640><c> got,</c><00:20:44.960><c> look</c><00:20:45.079><c> at</c><00:20:45.220><c> this.</c>

00:20:46.400 --> 00:20:47.539
Simeon<00:20:46.660><c> and</c><00:20:46.819><c> Levi</c><00:20:47.039><c> on</c><00:20:47.299><c> blessing.</c>

00:20:47.660 --> 00:20:48.900
Would<00:20:47.720><c> they</c><00:20:47.839><c> be</c><00:20:47.980><c> the</c><00:20:48.160><c> first</c><00:20:48.339><c> two</c><00:20:48.460><c> you'd</c><00:20:48.660><c> mention?</c>

00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:50.299
Huh?

00:20:51.099 --> 00:20:52.980
I<00:20:51.099><c> mean,</c><00:20:51.500><c> it</c><00:20:51.519><c> just,</c><00:20:51.700><c> it</c><00:20:52.000><c> flies</c><00:20:52.140><c> in</c><00:20:52.380><c> the</c><00:20:52.460><c> face</c><00:20:52.619><c> of</c><00:20:52.839><c> reason.</c>

00:20:53.019 --> 00:20:55.819
God<00:20:53.279><c> must</c><00:20:53.660><c> be</c><00:20:54.019><c> communicating</c><00:20:54.559><c> something</c><00:20:55.059><c> else</c><00:20:55.400><c> to</c><00:20:55.640><c> us.</c>

00:20:55.940 --> 00:20:56.960
I<00:20:56.119><c> don't</c><00:20:56.299><c> know</c><00:20:56.380><c> what</c><00:20:56.480><c> that</c><00:20:56.700><c> is,</c>

00:20:57.119 --> 00:20:58.559
but<00:20:57.359><c> we</c><00:20:57.500><c> don't</c><00:20:57.640><c> need</c><00:20:57.779><c> to</c><00:20:58.000><c> understand</c><00:20:58.359><c> that</c>

00:20:58.559 --> 00:21:00.920
to<00:20:58.799><c> see</c><00:20:59.319><c> some</c><00:20:59.940><c> of</c><00:21:00.059><c> the</c><00:21:00.220><c> great</c><00:21:00.440><c> secrets</c>

00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:02.940
that<00:21:01.359><c> are</c><00:21:01.640><c> revealed</c><00:21:01.880><c> to</c><00:21:02.099><c> us</c><00:21:02.259><c> in</c><00:21:02.539><c> Shechem,</c><00:21:02.779><c> all</c><00:21:02.880><c> right?</c>

00:21:02.940 --> 00:21:05.900
So<00:21:03.079><c> I</c><00:21:03.140><c> put</c><00:21:03.279><c> that</c><00:21:03.460><c> up</c><00:21:03.599><c> there</c><00:21:03.880><c> because</c><00:21:04.339><c> I</c><00:21:04.799><c> want</c><00:21:04.900><c> you</c><00:21:05.460><c> to</c><00:21:05.480><c> look</c><00:21:05.640><c> at</c><00:21:05.799><c> it,</c>

00:21:05.900 --> 00:21:06.859
and<00:21:05.980><c> I</c><00:21:06.000><c> want</c><00:21:06.079><c> you</c><00:21:06.200><c> to</c><00:21:06.339><c> find</c><00:21:06.420><c> the</c><00:21:06.640><c> answer.</c>

00:21:06.859 --> 00:21:11.039
And<00:21:07.119><c> when</c><00:21:07.240><c> you</c><00:21:07.440><c> do,</c><00:21:08.960><c> tell</c><00:21:09.099><c> me,</c><00:21:10.019><c> please</c><00:21:10.539><c> tell</c><00:21:10.839><c> me,</c>

00:21:11.059 --> 00:21:13.359
because<00:21:11.240><c> this</c><00:21:11.420><c> has</c><00:21:11.559><c> been</c><00:21:11.619><c> one</c><00:21:11.779><c> of</c><00:21:11.839><c> my</c><00:21:12.000><c> greatest</c><00:21:12.259><c> questions</c>

00:21:13.460 --> 00:21:15.359
in<00:21:13.880><c> the</c><00:21:14.119><c> study</c><00:21:14.380><c> of</c><00:21:14.640><c> Shechem.</c>

00:21:17.819 --> 00:21:21.039
So<00:21:18.339><c> the</c><00:21:18.579><c> nation</c><00:21:19.220><c> were</c><00:21:20.279><c> commanded</c><00:21:20.539><c> to</c><00:21:20.779><c> assemble</c>

00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:22.299
the<00:21:21.240><c> attendance</c><00:21:21.539><c> of</c><00:21:21.759><c> all</c><00:21:21.920><c> Israel.</c>

00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:24.400
That<00:21:22.759><c> was</c><00:21:22.920><c> in</c><00:21:23.119><c> Joshua</c><00:21:23.440><c> 8,</c><00:21:23.660><c> but</c><00:21:23.839><c> guess</c><00:21:24.079><c> what?</c>

00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:26.440
It<00:21:25.019><c> happens</c><00:21:25.319><c> again.</c>

00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:29.559
God<00:21:28.519><c> keeps</c><00:21:28.859><c> bringing</c><00:21:29.119><c> his</c><00:21:29.400><c> people.</c>

00:21:29.640 --> 00:21:32.660
You<00:21:29.880><c> have</c><00:21:30.160><c> to</c><00:21:30.319><c> go</c><00:21:30.599><c> back</c><00:21:30.779><c> to</c><00:21:30.960><c> this</c><00:21:31.180><c> place</c><00:21:31.480><c> and</c><00:21:32.140><c> remember</c><00:21:32.440><c> it.</c>

00:21:32.779 --> 00:21:34.700
But<00:21:32.940><c> instead</c><00:21:33.200><c> of</c><00:21:33.380><c> having</c><00:21:33.640><c> everybody</c><00:21:34.259><c> there,</c>

00:21:34.700 --> 00:21:37.680
men,<00:21:35.200><c> women,</c><00:21:35.660><c> children,</c><00:21:36.079><c> strangers,</c><00:21:37.079><c> little</c><00:21:37.279><c> ones,</c>

00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:40.400
in<00:21:38.500><c> Joshua</c><00:21:38.859><c> chapter</c><00:21:39.240><c> 24,</c>

00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:46.059
we<00:21:41.019><c> have</c><00:21:41.259><c> the</c><00:21:41.559><c> attendance</c><00:21:41.980><c> of</c><00:21:42.440><c> only</c><00:21:43.000><c> the</c><00:21:43.480><c> leaders,</c><00:21:45.000><c> okay?</c>

00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:48.559
So<00:21:46.380><c> that's</c><00:21:47.900><c> pretty</c><00:21:48.140><c> important.</c>

00:21:48.680 --> 00:21:52.180
So<00:21:48.799><c> we've</c><00:21:49.039><c> talked</c><00:21:49.180><c> about</c><00:21:50.519><c> Shechem</c><00:21:50.940><c> as</c><00:21:51.099><c> it</c><00:21:51.299><c> relates</c><00:21:51.480><c> to</c><00:21:51.759><c> Abraham,</c>

00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:55.079
a<00:21:52.799><c> bit</c><00:21:52.920><c> about</c><00:21:53.180><c> how</c><00:21:53.359><c> it</c><00:21:53.579><c> relates</c><00:21:53.759><c> to</c><00:21:54.059><c> Jacob</c><00:21:54.279><c> and</c><00:21:54.440><c> his</c><00:21:54.680><c> family,</c>

00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:58.180
about<00:21:55.700><c> how</c><00:21:55.940><c> Moses</c><00:21:56.299><c> commanded</c><00:21:56.720><c> it</c><00:21:56.960><c> in</c><00:21:57.059><c> the</c><00:21:57.240><c> law,</c>

00:21:58.220 --> 00:22:00.799
about<00:21:58.460><c> how</c><00:21:58.720><c> Joshua</c><00:21:59.259><c> and</c><00:21:59.819><c> all</c><00:22:00.059><c> Israel</c><00:22:00.359><c> gathered</c>

00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:03.400
early<00:22:01.380><c> in</c><00:22:01.519><c> the</c><00:22:01.700><c> conquest</c><00:22:02.259><c> of</c><00:22:02.700><c> the</c><00:22:02.819><c> land</c><00:22:02.960><c> of</c><00:22:03.180><c> Canaan</c>

00:22:03.400 --> 00:22:06.500
after<00:22:04.039><c> Jericho</c><00:22:04.740><c> and</c><00:22:05.059><c> Ai</c><00:22:05.259><c> were</c><00:22:05.440><c> destroyed.</c>

00:22:06.619 --> 00:22:09.200
But<00:22:06.799><c> now</c><00:22:07.099><c> at</c><00:22:07.299><c> the</c><00:22:07.539><c> end</c><00:22:07.720><c> of</c><00:22:07.880><c> the</c><00:22:08.079><c> conquest,</c>

00:22:09.720 --> 00:22:13.799
Joshua<00:22:10.140><c> again</c><00:22:10.559><c> calls</c><00:22:11.940><c> the</c><00:22:12.200><c> leaders</c><00:22:12.380><c> of</c><00:22:12.559><c> the</c><00:22:12.779><c> tribes</c>

00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:17.900
just<00:22:14.900><c> before</c><00:22:15.319><c> he</c><00:22:15.599><c> dies,</c><00:22:15.980><c> and</c><00:22:16.099><c> look</c><00:22:16.200><c> at</c><00:22:16.279><c> what</c><00:22:16.400><c> it</c><00:22:16.559><c> says.</c>

00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:27.859
Joshua<00:22:24.099><c> starts</c><00:22:24.460><c> to</c><00:22:24.660><c> give</c><00:22:24.759><c> them</c><00:22:24.960><c> a</c><00:22:25.059><c> bit</c><00:22:25.220><c> of</c><00:22:26.380><c> a</c><00:22:26.440><c> history</c><00:22:26.720><c> lesson</c><00:22:27.000><c> here.</c>

00:22:29.839 --> 00:22:31.420
And<00:22:30.259><c> it's</c><00:22:30.400><c> one</c><00:22:30.539><c> that</c><00:22:30.660><c> you</c><00:22:30.819><c> would</c><00:22:31.019><c> understand,</c>

00:22:31.420 --> 00:22:32.799
and<00:22:31.559><c> it's</c><00:22:31.700><c> one</c><00:22:31.819><c> that</c><00:22:31.960><c> I</c><00:22:32.160><c> understand</c><00:22:32.539><c> too.</c>

00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:34.640
So<00:22:33.119><c> Joshua</c><00:22:33.359><c> chapter</c><00:22:34.140><c> 24.</c>

00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:35.660
Just<00:22:34.880><c> have</c><00:22:35.000><c> a</c><00:22:35.059><c> look</c><00:22:35.140><c> in</c><00:22:35.240><c> your</c><00:22:35.400><c> Bibles,</c>

00:22:36.000 --> 00:22:37.700
and<00:22:36.039><c> let's</c><00:22:36.339><c> begin</c><00:22:36.740><c> at</c><00:22:37.019><c> verse</c><00:22:37.259><c> one,</c><00:22:37.480><c> okay?</c>

00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:38.960
I<00:22:37.880><c> don't</c><00:22:38.019><c> have</c><00:22:38.180><c> this</c><00:22:38.339><c> one</c><00:22:38.400><c> up</c><00:22:38.519><c> on</c><00:22:38.619><c> the</c><00:22:38.779><c> screen,</c>

00:22:38.960 --> 00:22:41.599
but<00:22:39.220><c> go</c><00:22:39.480><c> to</c><00:22:39.640><c> Joshua</c><00:22:39.900><c> 24,</c><00:22:40.339><c> please.</c>

00:22:42.779 --> 00:22:45.279
Get<00:22:42.920><c> a</c><00:22:43.059><c> crack</c><00:22:43.220><c> open</c><00:22:43.380><c> the</c><00:22:43.519><c> Bible</c><00:22:43.740><c> for</c><00:22:43.900><c> this</c><00:22:44.079><c> one.</c>

00:22:50.119 --> 00:22:54.099
Now<00:22:50.460><c> there's</c><00:22:50.619><c> one</c><00:22:50.880><c> thing</c><00:22:51.339><c> I</c><00:22:52.640><c> really</c><00:22:52.880><c> want</c><00:22:52.980><c> you</c><00:22:53.099><c> to</c><00:22:53.259><c> understand.</c>

00:22:55.180 --> 00:22:57.519
This<00:22:55.519><c> is</c><00:22:55.799><c> not</c><00:22:56.059><c> Joshua's</c><00:22:56.700><c> idea.</c>

00:22:59.339 --> 00:23:00.339
Remember<00:22:59.559><c> the</c><00:22:59.700><c> first</c><00:22:59.839><c> time</c><00:22:59.960><c> I</c><00:23:00.039><c> read</c><00:23:00.160><c> this,</c>

00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:01.819
I<00:23:00.460><c> was</c><00:23:00.539><c> like,</c><00:23:00.700><c> wow,</c><00:23:00.880><c> Joshua</c><00:23:01.240><c> just</c><00:23:01.480><c> seems</c><00:23:01.619><c> to</c><00:23:01.740><c> be</c>

00:23:01.819 --> 00:23:02.920
kind<00:23:01.900><c> of</c><00:23:02.019><c> doing</c><00:23:02.119><c> his</c><00:23:02.279><c> own</c><00:23:02.480><c> thing</c><00:23:02.619><c> here.</c>

00:23:03.079 --> 00:23:04.039
No,<00:23:03.200><c> he</c><00:23:03.240><c> doesn't.</c>

00:23:04.539 --> 00:23:07.339
Joshua<00:23:04.880><c> is</c><00:23:05.220><c> directed</c><00:23:05.660><c> to</c><00:23:05.859><c> do</c><00:23:06.019><c> this</c><00:23:06.220><c> at</c><00:23:06.400><c> the</c><00:23:06.500><c> very</c><00:23:06.720><c> end</c><00:23:06.900><c> of</c><00:23:07.019><c> his</c><00:23:07.160><c> life.</c>

00:23:07.380 --> 00:23:09.720
Verse<00:23:07.599><c> one</c><00:23:08.220><c> of</c><00:23:08.440><c> Joshua</c><00:23:08.720><c> 24.</c>

00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:13.859
It<00:23:10.819><c> says</c><00:23:10.980><c> that</c><00:23:11.160><c> Joshua</c><00:23:11.500><c> gathered</c><00:23:11.859><c> all</c><00:23:12.440><c> the</c><00:23:12.740><c> tribes</c><00:23:13.140><c> of</c><00:23:13.400><c> Israel</c>

00:23:13.859 --> 00:23:17.559
to<00:23:14.339><c> Shechem</c><00:23:14.680><c> and</c><00:23:16.059><c> called</c><00:23:16.380><c> for</c><00:23:16.579><c> the</c><00:23:16.779><c> elders</c><00:23:16.980><c> of</c><00:23:17.140><c> Israel</c>

00:23:17.559 --> 00:23:19.519
and<00:23:17.759><c> for</c><00:23:17.900><c> their</c><00:23:18.099><c> heads</c><00:23:18.440><c> and</c><00:23:18.700><c> for</c><00:23:18.859><c> their</c><00:23:19.119><c> judges</c>

00:23:19.519 --> 00:23:21.140
and<00:23:20.079><c> for</c><00:23:20.319><c> their</c><00:23:20.579><c> officers,</c>

00:23:21.460 --> 00:23:24.279
and<00:23:21.839><c> they</c><00:23:22.180><c> presented</c><00:23:22.559><c> themselves</c><00:23:23.119><c> before</c><00:23:23.920><c> God.</c>

00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:25.240
Now<00:23:24.599><c> do</c><00:23:24.680><c> you</c><00:23:24.759><c> see</c><00:23:24.839><c> that?</c>

00:23:25.599 --> 00:23:27.839
So<00:23:25.799><c> this</c><00:23:25.940><c> is</c><00:23:26.140><c> not</c><00:23:26.640><c> men,</c><00:23:26.960><c> women,</c><00:23:27.240><c> children,</c><00:23:27.519><c> everybody.</c>

00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:32.859
It<00:23:28.000><c> says</c><00:23:28.680><c> heads,</c><00:23:29.839><c> judges,</c><00:23:32.000><c> officers,</c>

00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:34.619
and<00:23:33.039><c> elders</c><00:23:33.299><c> at</c><00:23:33.579><c> the</c><00:23:33.660><c> very</c><00:23:33.839><c> beginning,</c><00:23:34.240><c> okay?</c>

00:23:34.900 --> 00:23:37.099
So<00:23:35.059><c> this</c><00:23:35.180><c> is</c><00:23:35.339><c> just</c><00:23:35.500><c> a</c><00:23:35.759><c> select</c><00:23:36.000><c> group.</c>

00:23:39.839 --> 00:23:42.420
In<00:23:39.940><c> verse</c><00:23:40.160><c> two,</c><00:23:40.400><c> it</c><00:23:40.440><c> says</c><00:23:40.619><c> Joshua</c><00:23:41.039><c> said</c><00:23:41.240><c> unto</c><00:23:41.460><c> all</c><00:23:41.960><c> the</c><00:23:42.200><c> people</c>

00:23:42.420 --> 00:23:43.640
that<00:23:42.579><c> are</c><00:23:42.720><c> gathered</c><00:23:42.920><c> there,</c>

00:23:43.940 --> 00:23:46.039
thus<00:23:44.180><c> saith</c><00:23:44.579><c> the</c><00:23:44.900><c> Lord</c><00:23:45.259><c> God</c><00:23:45.559><c> of</c><00:23:45.759><c> Israel.</c>

00:23:46.079 --> 00:23:47.680
So<00:23:46.220><c> is</c><00:23:46.380><c> this</c><00:23:46.519><c> Joshua's</c><00:23:46.960><c> idea?</c>

00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:50.220
Nope,<00:23:48.319><c> this</c><00:23:48.539><c> is</c><00:23:48.759><c> a</c><00:23:48.920><c> new</c><00:23:49.140><c> command</c>

00:23:50.519 --> 00:23:53.000
to<00:23:50.960><c> be</c><00:23:51.200><c> given</c><00:23:51.359><c> to</c><00:23:51.619><c> this</c><00:23:51.839><c> group</c><00:23:52.019><c> of</c><00:23:52.319><c> people</c><00:23:52.500><c> right</c><00:23:52.779><c> here.</c>

00:23:53.079 --> 00:23:55.660
And<00:23:53.240><c> this</c><00:23:53.359><c> is</c><00:23:53.539><c> maybe</c><00:23:53.700><c> one</c><00:23:53.880><c> of</c><00:23:53.980><c> the</c><00:23:54.180><c> most</c><00:23:54.519><c> famous</c><00:23:55.220><c> places</c>

00:23:55.660 --> 00:23:58.539
where<00:23:55.880><c> Shechem</c><00:23:56.119><c> is</c><00:23:56.339><c> talked</c><00:23:56.500><c> about</c><00:23:57.180><c> in</c><00:23:57.599><c> scripture.</c>

00:23:58.799 --> 00:24:00.559
It<00:23:58.819><c> might</c><00:23:58.940><c> be</c><00:23:59.079><c> the</c><00:23:59.220><c> most</c><00:23:59.460><c> well</c><00:23:59.700><c> known.</c>

00:24:01.420 --> 00:24:02.839
Joshua<00:24:01.740><c> said</c><00:24:01.920><c> unto</c><00:24:02.079><c> all</c><00:24:02.259><c> the</c><00:24:02.440><c> people,</c>

00:24:03.059 --> 00:24:04.519
thus<00:24:03.279><c> saith</c><00:24:03.559><c> the</c><00:24:03.759><c> Lord</c><00:24:03.940><c> God</c><00:24:04.119><c> of</c><00:24:04.259><c> Israel,</c>

00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:07.160
your<00:24:04.880><c> fathers</c><00:24:05.380><c> dwelt</c><00:24:05.759><c> on</c><00:24:05.980><c> the</c><00:24:06.160><c> other</c><00:24:06.420><c> side</c><00:24:06.559><c> of</c><00:24:06.700><c> the</c><00:24:06.940><c> flood</c>

00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:10.559
in<00:24:07.799><c> old</c><00:24:08.099><c> time,</c><00:24:08.920><c> even</c><00:24:09.160><c> Terah</c><00:24:09.519><c> the</c><00:24:09.619><c> father</c><00:24:09.900><c> of</c><00:24:10.119><c> Abraham</c>

00:24:10.559 --> 00:24:15.480
and<00:24:10.980><c> the</c><00:24:11.200><c> father</c><00:24:11.440><c> of</c><00:24:12.000><c> Nahor,</c><00:24:12.779><c> and</c><00:24:13.160><c> they</c><00:24:13.599><c> served</c><00:24:14.180><c> other</c><00:24:14.619><c> gods.</c>

00:24:15.900 --> 00:24:17.599
So<00:24:16.339><c> he</c><00:24:16.480><c> goes</c><00:24:16.680><c> right</c><00:24:16.940><c> back</c><00:24:17.140><c> to</c><00:24:17.259><c> the</c><00:24:17.420><c> beginning.</c>

00:24:17.740 --> 00:24:19.660
We're<00:24:17.900><c> gonna</c><00:24:17.960><c> look</c><00:24:18.099><c> at</c><00:24:18.200><c> this</c><00:24:18.400><c> verse</c><00:24:18.539><c> in</c><00:24:18.660><c> a</c><00:24:18.799><c> bit.</c>

00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:21.640
But<00:24:19.839><c> then</c><00:24:19.940><c> when</c><00:24:20.019><c> you</c><00:24:20.099><c> look</c><00:24:20.240><c> over</c><00:24:20.440><c> here</c><00:24:20.599><c> at</c><00:24:20.720><c> Joshua</c><00:24:21.019><c> nine,</c>

00:24:21.960 --> 00:24:24.400
look<00:24:22.180><c> at</c><00:24:22.299><c> what</c><00:24:22.460><c> Joshua</c><00:24:22.839><c> starts</c><00:24:23.160><c> talking</c><00:24:23.480><c> about.</c>

00:24:25.839 --> 00:24:29.099
He<00:24:26.240><c> says</c><00:24:26.440><c> that</c><00:24:27.119><c> Balak,</c><00:24:27.579><c> the</c><00:24:27.660><c> son</c><00:24:27.839><c> of</c><00:24:28.019><c> Zippor,</c><00:24:28.359><c> king</c><00:24:28.559><c> of</c><00:24:28.799><c> Moab,</c>

00:24:29.240 --> 00:24:31.079
arose<00:24:29.599><c> and</c><00:24:30.079><c> warred</c><00:24:30.299><c> against</c><00:24:30.619><c> Israel</c>

00:24:31.079 --> 00:24:34.700
and<00:24:31.500><c> sent</c><00:24:31.779><c> and</c><00:24:32.119><c> called</c><00:24:32.240><c> Balaam</c><00:24:32.619><c> the</c><00:24:32.700><c> son</c><00:24:32.839><c> of</c><00:24:33.039><c> Beor</c><00:24:33.200><c> to</c><00:24:33.359><c> curse</c><00:24:33.779><c> you.</c>

00:24:34.940 --> 00:24:36.480
But<00:24:35.180><c> I</c><00:24:35.299><c> would</c><00:24:35.480><c> not</c><00:24:35.640><c> hearken</c><00:24:35.880><c> unto</c><00:24:36.079><c> Balaam,</c>

00:24:36.799 --> 00:24:38.599
therefore<00:24:37.059><c> he</c><00:24:37.440><c> blessed</c><00:24:37.799><c> you</c><00:24:38.160><c> still,</c>

00:24:39.079 --> 00:24:41.400
so<00:24:39.480><c> I</c><00:24:39.819><c> delivered</c><00:24:40.140><c> you</c><00:24:40.599><c> out</c><00:24:40.920><c> of</c><00:24:41.019><c> his</c><00:24:41.220><c> hand.</c>

00:24:41.420 --> 00:24:41.940
That's<00:24:41.720><c> awesome.</c>

00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:43.059
Why<00:24:42.119><c> is</c><00:24:42.160><c> he</c><00:24:42.319><c> talking</c><00:24:42.500><c> about</c><00:24:42.779><c> that?</c>

00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:44.640
He<00:24:43.420><c> could</c><00:24:43.559><c> have</c><00:24:43.660><c> talked</c><00:24:43.859><c> about</c><00:24:44.200><c> anything</c>

00:24:44.640 --> 00:24:45.799
in<00:24:44.799><c> the</c><00:24:44.920><c> whole</c><00:24:45.079><c> history</c><00:24:45.339><c> of</c><00:24:45.500><c> Israel.</c>

00:24:46.059 --> 00:24:47.240
But<00:24:46.319><c> he</c><00:24:46.500><c> says</c><00:24:46.599><c> to</c><00:24:46.740><c> the</c><00:24:46.880><c> people</c><00:24:47.019><c> there,</c>

00:24:47.339 --> 00:24:49.099
hey,<00:24:47.500><c> remember</c><00:24:47.700><c> the</c><00:24:47.880><c> blessing</c><00:24:48.079><c> and</c><00:24:48.220><c> the</c><00:24:48.380><c> curse?</c>

00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:51.599
Yeah,<00:24:50.319><c> we're</c><00:24:50.480><c> at</c><00:24:50.640><c> Shechem</c><00:24:50.759><c> now.</c>

00:24:52.279 --> 00:24:54.660
And<00:24:52.539><c> I</c><00:24:52.640><c> want</c><00:24:52.759><c> you</c><00:24:52.880><c> to</c><00:24:53.160><c> think</c><00:24:53.319><c> about</c><00:24:53.559><c> the</c><00:24:53.759><c> blessing</c><00:24:53.980><c> and</c><00:24:54.160><c> the</c><00:24:54.319><c> curse</c>

00:24:54.660 --> 00:24:57.200
here<00:24:55.339><c> at</c><00:24:56.359><c> Shechem.</c>

00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:05.380
Well,<00:25:03.819><c> as</c><00:25:04.019><c> we</c><00:25:04.160><c> had</c><00:25:04.240><c> a</c><00:25:04.319><c> look</c><00:25:04.420><c> at</c><00:25:04.559><c> verse</c><00:25:04.819><c> two,</c>

00:25:05.640 --> 00:25:09.000
it<00:25:05.819><c> says</c><00:25:06.039><c> that</c><00:25:06.740><c> the</c><00:25:06.980><c> ancestors</c><00:25:07.640><c> of</c><00:25:07.980><c> Abraham</c>

00:25:09.960 --> 00:25:11.559
served<00:25:10.480><c> other</c><00:25:11.000><c> gods.</c>

00:25:11.819 --> 00:25:13.000
So<00:25:11.960><c> what</c><00:25:12.079><c> that</c><00:25:12.299><c> means</c><00:25:12.440><c> is</c><00:25:12.619><c> that</c><00:25:12.819><c> Abraham</c>

00:25:13.000 --> 00:25:16.099
came<00:25:13.220><c> out</c><00:25:13.380><c> of</c><00:25:13.480><c> a</c><00:25:13.660><c> culture</c><00:25:13.980><c> of</c><00:25:14.519><c> idolatry.</c>

00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:20.039
And<00:25:18.599><c> the</c><00:25:18.779><c> people</c><00:25:19.039><c> were</c><00:25:19.240><c> being</c><00:25:19.480><c> called</c><00:25:19.759><c> upon</c>

00:25:20.039 --> 00:25:21.680
to<00:25:20.299><c> do</c><00:25:20.579><c> the</c><00:25:21.000><c> exact</c><00:25:21.259><c> same</c><00:25:21.500><c> thing.</c>

00:25:21.740 --> 00:25:24.660
Now<00:25:22.000><c> look</c><00:25:22.180><c> at</c><00:25:22.460><c> verse</c><00:25:22.859><c> 14,</c><00:25:23.500><c> are</c><00:25:23.619><c> you</c><00:25:23.799><c> ready?</c>

00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:27.640
How<00:25:25.640><c> big</c><00:25:26.039><c> is</c><00:25:26.259><c> this</c><00:25:26.500><c> verse</c><00:25:26.740><c> now?</c>

00:25:27.779 --> 00:25:28.900
Now<00:25:28.079><c> everybody</c><00:25:28.339><c> knows</c><00:25:28.579><c> this</c><00:25:28.799><c> verse.</c>

00:25:28.940 --> 00:25:30.960
Probably<00:25:29.279><c> almost</c><00:25:29.640><c> everybody</c><00:25:30.039><c> has</c><00:25:30.500><c> heard</c><00:25:30.720><c> this</c>

00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:33.859
or<00:25:31.519><c> will</c><00:25:31.819><c> kind</c><00:25:31.940><c> of</c><00:25:32.039><c> think,</c><00:25:32.160><c> hey,</c><00:25:32.339><c> that</c><00:25:32.460><c> kind</c><00:25:32.599><c> of</c><00:25:32.779><c> sounds</c><00:25:32.900><c> familiar.</c>

00:25:34.319 --> 00:25:35.880
But<00:25:34.619><c> this</c><00:25:34.859><c> is</c><00:25:35.039><c> why</c><00:25:35.119><c> it's</c><00:25:35.259><c> so</c><00:25:35.599><c> powerful</c>

00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:39.240
because<00:25:36.039><c> there's</c><00:25:36.259><c> so</c><00:25:36.500><c> much</c><00:25:37.099><c> history</c><00:25:37.559><c> that</c><00:25:37.700><c> had</c><00:25:37.819><c> come</c><00:25:38.019><c> before</c><00:25:38.299><c> that.</c>

00:25:39.680 --> 00:25:41.440
There's<00:25:39.900><c> so</c><00:25:40.119><c> much</c><00:25:40.240><c> of</c><00:25:40.359><c> the</c><00:25:40.579><c> truth</c><00:25:40.779><c> that</c><00:25:40.940><c> had</c><00:25:41.039><c> been</c><00:25:41.279><c> lived</c>

00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:42.920
before<00:25:41.819><c> this</c><00:25:42.099><c> verse</c><00:25:42.339><c> was</c><00:25:42.700><c> written.</c>

00:25:43.180 --> 00:25:46.240
Now<00:25:43.460><c> therefore,</c><00:25:44.859><c> fear</c><00:25:45.500><c> Yahweh</c>

00:25:46.240 --> 00:25:50.420
and<00:25:46.920><c> serve</c><00:25:47.420><c> him</c><00:25:47.940><c> in</c><00:25:48.480><c> sincerity</c><00:25:49.079><c> and</c><00:25:49.460><c> truth</c>

00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:54.319
and<00:25:51.480><c> put</c><00:25:51.759><c> away</c><00:25:52.220><c> the</c><00:25:52.519><c> gods</c><00:25:52.859><c> which</c><00:25:53.200><c> your</c><00:25:53.440><c> fathers</c><00:25:53.799><c> served</c>

00:25:54.799 --> 00:25:57.119
on<00:25:55.279><c> the</c><00:25:55.440><c> other</c><00:25:55.680><c> side</c><00:25:55.799><c> of</c><00:25:55.940><c> the</c><00:25:56.160><c> flood</c><00:25:56.380><c> and</c><00:25:56.619><c> in</c><00:25:56.779><c> Egypt</c>

00:25:57.119 --> 00:26:00.160
and<00:25:57.599><c> serve</c><00:25:58.500><c> ye</c><00:25:59.259><c> Yahweh.</c>

00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:02.019
Do<00:26:00.299><c> I</c><00:26:00.400><c> have</c><00:26:00.539><c> to</c><00:26:00.660><c> tell</c><00:26:00.740><c> you</c><00:26:00.839><c> why</c><00:26:00.920><c> that's</c><00:26:01.220><c> significant?</c>

00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:06.200
Are<00:26:03.140><c> you</c><00:26:03.319><c> starting</c><00:26:03.420><c> to</c><00:26:04.140><c> read</c><00:26:04.380><c> Shechem</c><00:26:04.640><c> now</c><00:26:04.900><c> with</c><00:26:05.140><c> fresh</c><00:26:05.380><c> eyes?</c>

00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:07.940
That's<00:26:06.519><c> what</c><00:26:06.660><c> Abraham</c><00:26:07.059><c> did.</c>

00:26:09.500 --> 00:26:12.559
And<00:26:09.700><c> that's</c><00:26:09.880><c> what</c><00:26:10.059><c> Jacob</c><00:26:10.299><c> did</c><00:26:10.539><c> when</c><00:26:10.720><c> he</c><00:26:10.940><c> came</c><00:26:11.039><c> out</c><00:26:11.220><c> of</c><00:26:11.460><c> Syria.</c>

00:26:13.519 --> 00:26:15.940
And<00:26:14.000><c> that's</c><00:26:14.180><c> what</c><00:26:14.319><c> Jacob</c><00:26:14.539><c> did</c><00:26:14.720><c> when</c><00:26:14.859><c> he</c><00:26:15.059><c> put</c><00:26:15.200><c> away</c><00:26:15.380><c> the</c><00:26:15.619><c> gods</c>

00:26:15.940 --> 00:26:17.140
in<00:26:16.400><c> that</c><00:26:16.599><c> very</c><00:26:16.759><c> place.</c>

00:26:17.180 --> 00:26:19.220
And<00:26:17.359><c> maybe</c><00:26:17.559><c> it</c><00:26:17.720><c> was</c><00:26:17.880><c> that</c><00:26:18.119><c> Joshua</c><00:26:18.400><c> was</c><00:26:18.660><c> like,</c>

00:26:19.220 --> 00:26:20.420
put<00:26:19.460><c> away</c><00:26:19.700><c> the</c><00:26:19.960><c> gods.</c>

00:30:10.079 --> 00:30:13.759
So<00:30:10.259><c> when</c><00:30:10.380><c> we</c><00:30:10.539><c> go</c><00:30:10.779><c> away,</c><00:30:11.940><c> we</c><00:30:12.160><c> gotta</c><00:30:12.400><c> come</c><00:30:12.740><c> back.</c>

My<00:30:24.660><c> faith</c><00:30:25.039><c> is</c><00:30:26.319><c> not</c><00:30:26.519><c> enough</c><00:30:26.759><c> for</c><00:30:27.000><c> anybody</c><00:30:27.299><c> else.</c>

00:34:16.659 --> 00:34:18.400
You're<00:34:16.739><c> just</c><00:34:16.920><c> like</c><00:34:17.079><c> your</c><00:34:17.260><c> fathers,</c><00:34:17.599><c> just</c><00:34:17.800><c> like</c><00:34:17.980><c> your</c><00:34:18.159><c> fathers</c>

00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:26.679

00:34:26.960 --> 00:34:28.199
Isn't<00:34:27.059><c> that</c><00:34:27.199><c> incredible?</c>

00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:31.019
We<00:34:29.500><c> can</c><00:34:29.719><c> do</c><00:34:29.940><c> it.</c>

00:34:31.619 --> 00:34:34.300
That<00:34:31.820><c> is</c><00:34:32.019><c> the</c><00:34:32.199><c> message</c><00:34:32.539><c> that</c><00:34:32.739><c> comes</c><00:34:32.980><c> to</c><00:34:33.139><c> us</c><00:34:33.239><c> from</c><00:34:33.460><c> Joshua</c><00:34:33.800><c> 24.</c>

00:34:34.619 --> 00:34:36.460
We<00:34:35.059><c> can</c><00:34:35.699><c> do</c><00:34:35.900><c> it.</c>

00:34:36.840 --> 00:34:39.360
They<00:34:37.059><c> said</c><00:34:37.199><c> they</c><00:34:37.340><c> would</c><00:34:37.500><c> do</c><00:34:37.659><c> it</c><00:34:37.860><c> and</c><00:34:37.940><c> they</c><00:34:38.159><c> did</c><00:34:38.300><c> it.</c>

00:34:41.039 --> 00:34:42.639
What<00:34:41.300><c> is</c><00:34:41.480><c> your</c><00:34:41.599><c> view</c><00:34:41.780><c> of</c><00:34:41.940><c> God,</c><00:34:42.239><c> young</c><00:34:42.420><c> person?</c>

00:34:42.739 --> 00:34:45.300
Do<00:34:42.780><c> you</c><00:34:42.920><c> think,</c><00:34:43.440><c> like,</c><00:34:44.019><c> do</c><00:34:44.199><c> you</c><00:34:44.300><c> think</c><00:34:44.500><c> that,</c>

00:34:46.679 --> 00:34:48.460
I<00:34:47.119><c> gotta</c><00:34:47.360><c> tell</c><00:34:47.519><c> you</c><00:34:47.639><c> a</c><00:34:47.659><c> story</c><00:34:47.860><c> real</c><00:34:48.119><c> quick.</c>

00:34:48.460 --> 00:34:50.599
You<00:34:49.280><c> gotta</c><00:34:49.460><c> hear</c><00:34:49.619><c> this.</c>

00:34:51.099 --> 00:34:53.719
Before<00:34:51.219><c> I</c><00:34:51.360><c> got</c><00:34:51.579><c> baptized,</c><00:34:52.599><c> I</c><00:34:52.679><c> remember</c><00:34:52.900><c> thinking,</c>

00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:57.219
and<00:34:54.420><c> again,</c><00:34:54.980><c> let</c><00:34:55.119><c> me</c><00:34:55.260><c> just</c><00:34:56.019><c> step</c><00:34:56.159><c> back</c><00:34:56.519><c> from</c><00:34:56.679><c> my</c><00:34:56.880><c> digression</c>

00:34:57.219 --> 00:34:58.719
with<00:34:57.460><c> an</c><00:34:57.639><c> introduction</c><00:34:58.019><c> to</c><00:34:58.360><c> it.</c>

00:34:58.860 --> 00:35:00.599
All<00:34:58.940><c> right.</c>

00:35:03.239 --> 00:35:06.340
I'm<00:35:03.699><c> not</c><00:35:04.059><c> saying</c><00:35:04.519><c> that</c><00:35:05.219><c> everybody</c><00:35:05.519><c> in</c><00:35:05.679><c> this</c><00:35:05.900><c> room</c>

00:35:06.340 --> 00:35:08.860
has<00:35:06.820><c> to</c><00:35:07.000><c> run</c><00:35:07.199><c> home</c><00:35:07.760><c> and</c><00:35:08.260><c> get</c><00:35:08.440><c> baptized.</c>

00:35:08.940 --> 00:35:09.900
Are<00:35:09.019><c> we</c><00:35:09.159><c> clear?</c>

00:35:10.239 --> 00:35:11.880
Uncle<00:35:10.500><c> Jay</c><00:35:10.739><c> said</c><00:35:10.900><c> I</c><00:35:11.039><c> had</c><00:35:11.239><c> to</c><00:35:11.360><c> get</c><00:35:11.559><c> baptized.</c>

00:35:11.960 --> 00:35:13.320
No,<00:35:12.119><c> we</c><00:35:12.179><c> didn't.</c>

00:35:15.539 --> 00:35:16.219
I<00:35:15.820><c> mean,</c><00:35:15.920><c> you</c><00:35:16.019><c> do.</c>

00:35:16.219 --> 00:35:17.400
You<00:35:16.900><c> do.</c>

00:35:18.760 --> 00:35:25.780
You<00:35:19.239><c> do,</c><00:35:20.420><c> but</c><00:35:20.760><c> not</c><00:35:22.000><c> necessarily</c><00:35:22.800><c> right</c><00:35:24.000><c> when</c><00:35:24.119><c> you</c><00:35:24.199><c> get</c><00:35:24.300><c> home,</c><00:35:24.860><c> okay?</c>

00:35:26.280 --> 00:35:30.059
However,<00:35:28.239><c> when</c><00:35:28.300><c> I</c><00:35:28.360><c> was</c><00:35:28.460><c> thinking</c><00:35:28.659><c> about</c><00:35:28.840><c> being</c><00:35:29.059><c> baptized,</c>

00:35:30.880 --> 00:35:35.539
I<00:35:31.079><c> was</c><00:35:31.400><c> just</c><00:35:31.619><c> really</c><00:35:32.760><c> struggling</c><00:35:34.300><c> with</c><00:35:34.519><c> my</c><00:35:34.820><c> own</c><00:35:35.239><c> concept</c>

00:35:35.539 --> 00:35:38.000
of<00:35:35.800><c> being</c><00:35:36.300><c> worthy</c><00:35:36.699><c> enough</c><00:35:36.980><c> to</c><00:35:37.079><c> do</c><00:35:37.260><c> it.</c>

00:35:39.199 --> 00:35:42.119
I<00:35:39.579><c> felt</c><00:35:39.739><c> like</c><00:35:40.639><c> I</c><00:35:40.920><c> didn't</c><00:35:41.159><c> deserve</c><00:35:41.519><c> to</c><00:35:41.679><c> be</c><00:35:41.840><c> baptized.</c>

00:35:42.199 --> 00:35:43.300
For<00:35:42.300><c> whatever</c><00:35:42.519><c> reason,</c><00:35:42.780><c> that's</c><00:35:42.960><c> what</c><00:35:43.059><c> I</c><00:35:43.219><c> felt,</c>

00:35:43.320 --> 00:35:45.420
and<00:35:43.460><c> I</c><00:35:43.519><c> know</c><00:35:43.639><c> that</c><00:35:43.780><c> other</c><00:35:43.880><c> young</c><00:35:44.039><c> people</c><00:35:44.280><c> have</c><00:35:44.420><c> felt</c><00:35:44.539><c> the</c><00:35:44.719><c> same</c><00:35:44.920><c> way.</c>

00:35:45.420 --> 00:35:50.719
And<00:35:45.960><c> that</c><00:35:47.579><c> is</c><00:35:49.179><c> so</c><00:35:49.699><c> backwards.</c>

00:35:51.500 --> 00:35:54.320
Because<00:35:51.659><c> the</c><00:35:51.920><c> reason</c><00:35:52.480><c> you</c><00:35:53.099><c> need</c><00:35:53.360><c> to</c><00:35:53.519><c> get</c><00:35:53.760><c> baptized</c>

00:35:54.320 --> 00:35:58.719
is<00:35:55.000><c> because</c><00:35:55.940><c> you</c><00:35:56.920><c> need</c><00:35:57.260><c> to</c><00:35:57.400><c> get</c><00:35:57.659><c> baptized.</c>

00:35:58.900 --> 00:36:01.280
Not<00:35:59.099><c> because</c><00:35:59.400><c> you</c><00:35:59.639><c> make</c><00:35:59.840><c> yourself</c><00:36:00.219><c> get</c><00:36:00.460><c> ready</c><00:36:00.659><c> for</c><00:36:00.880><c> it.</c>

00:36:01.739 --> 00:36:03.599
Now,<00:36:02.039><c> that</c><00:36:02.340><c> doesn't</c><00:36:02.579><c> mean</c><00:36:02.739><c> that</c><00:36:02.860><c> you</c><00:36:03.019><c> don't</c><00:36:03.239><c> prepare,</c>

00:36:03.619 --> 00:36:04.820
because<00:36:03.860><c> you</c><00:36:04.039><c> do.</c>

00:36:05.400 --> 00:36:07.980
But<00:36:05.599><c> you</c><00:36:05.860><c> can't</c><00:36:06.579><c> have</c><00:36:07.079><c> some</c><00:36:07.340><c> kind</c><00:36:07.480><c> of</c><00:36:07.719><c> standard</c>

00:36:07.980 --> 00:36:10.260
of<00:36:08.139><c> your</c><00:36:08.260><c> own</c><00:36:08.440><c> personal</c><00:36:08.679><c> righteousness</c><00:36:09.300><c> upon</c><00:36:09.719><c> which</c><00:36:09.960><c> to</c><00:36:10.139><c> stand</c>

00:36:10.260 --> 00:36:12.760
and<00:36:10.440><c> then</c><00:36:10.619><c> say,</c><00:36:11.219><c> now</c><00:36:11.380><c> I'm</c><00:36:12.119><c> worthy</c><00:36:12.260><c> of</c><00:36:12.460><c> baptism.</c>

00:36:13.079 --> 00:36:14.079
Oh<00:36:13.320><c> yeah?</c>

00:36:14.519 --> 00:36:19.159
No,<00:36:15.079><c> it's</c><00:36:15.320><c> about</c><00:36:15.639><c> burying</c><00:36:16.960><c> the</c><00:36:17.860><c> you</c><00:36:18.199><c> of</c><00:36:18.659><c> now,</c>

00:36:19.340 --> 00:36:22.340
burying<00:36:19.780><c> that,</c><00:36:21.059><c> and</c><00:36:21.239><c> rising</c><00:36:21.559><c> up</c><00:36:21.760><c> out</c><00:36:21.880><c> of</c><00:36:21.940><c> the</c><00:36:22.099><c> waters</c>

00:36:22.340 --> 00:36:23.019
and<00:36:22.460><c> being</c><00:36:22.679><c> Christ.</c>

00:36:23.179 --> 00:36:24.460
That's<00:36:23.480><c> what</c><00:36:23.880><c> baptism</c><00:36:24.239><c> is.</c>

00:36:24.659 --> 00:36:27.139
And<00:36:24.840><c> it's</c><00:36:25.039><c> the</c><00:36:25.139><c> rest</c><00:36:25.280><c> of</c><00:36:25.400><c> your</c><00:36:25.539><c> life</c><00:36:25.679><c> after</c><00:36:25.960><c> baptism</c><00:36:26.320><c> too.</c>

00:36:27.679 --> 00:36:31.099
Don't<00:36:28.199><c> think</c><00:36:28.719><c> that</c><00:36:29.519><c> you're</c><00:36:29.780><c> not</c><00:36:30.019><c> good</c><00:36:30.239><c> enough.</c>

00:36:31.860 --> 00:36:34.440
Don't<00:36:32.219><c> think</c><00:36:32.500><c> that</c><00:36:32.659><c> you</c><00:36:32.820><c> can't</c><00:36:33.199><c> do</c><00:36:33.360><c> it.</c>

00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:38.699
If<00:36:37.280><c> you</c><00:36:37.599><c> want</c><00:36:37.840><c> to</c><00:36:38.079><c> do</c><00:36:38.219><c> it,</c>

00:36:38.900 --> 00:36:42.260
if<00:36:39.099><c> it's</c><00:36:39.360><c> the</c><00:36:39.559><c> number</c><00:36:39.840><c> one</c><00:36:40.099><c> priority</c><00:36:40.539><c> in</c><00:36:40.780><c> your</c><00:36:40.980><c> life,</c>

00:36:43.260 --> 00:36:44.780
you<00:36:43.619><c> know</c><00:36:43.639><c> what's</c><00:36:43.800><c> going</c><00:36:43.900><c> to</c><00:36:43.960><c> happen?</c>

00:36:44.860 --> 00:36:46.880
You'll<00:36:45.000><c> get</c><00:36:45.139><c> there,</c><00:36:45.320><c> and</c><00:36:45.460><c> you'll</c><00:36:45.579><c> get</c><00:36:45.719><c> to</c><00:36:45.820><c> the</c><00:36:45.940><c> kingdom</c><00:36:46.139><c> too.</c>
