00:32:52.980 --> 00:32:56.700
Then<00:32:53.380><c> all</c><00:32:53.779><c> the</c><00:32:54.140><c> Greeks</c><00:32:54.619><c> took</c><00:32:55.740><c> Sosthenes,</c>

00:32:56.700 --> 00:32:59.380
the<00:32:57.160><c> chief</c><00:32:57.599><c> ruler</c><00:32:57.980><c> of</c><00:32:58.259><c> the</c><00:32:58.460><c> synagogue,</c>

00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:02.059
and<00:32:59.779><c> beat</c><00:32:59.940><c> him</c><00:33:00.160><c> before</c><00:33:00.460><c> the</c><00:33:00.680><c> judgment</c><00:33:00.960><c> seat.</c>

00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:06.640
Galio's<00:33:03.059><c> ruling</c><00:33:03.640><c> seemed</c><00:33:04.920><c> to</c><00:33:05.640><c> be</c><00:33:05.839><c> an</c><00:33:06.039><c> excuse</c>

00:33:06.640 --> 00:33:10.140
for<00:33:07.700><c> the</c><00:33:07.940><c> anti</c><00:33:08.240><c>-Semitism</c><00:33:08.680><c> that's</c><00:33:09.160><c> always</c>

00:33:10.140 --> 00:33:12.119
lurking<00:33:10.799><c> in</c><00:33:10.980><c> the</c><00:33:11.140><c> background.</c>

00:33:13.460 --> 00:33:16.680
And<00:33:13.559><c> they</c><00:33:13.700><c> took</c><00:33:13.900><c> the</c><00:33:14.119><c> man</c><00:33:14.279><c> who</c><00:33:14.559><c> apparently</c><00:33:15.079><c> had</c><00:33:15.519><c> led</c>

00:33:16.700 --> 00:33:18.460
this<00:33:17.220><c> delegation</c><00:33:17.779><c> to</c><00:33:18.039><c> Galio</c>

00:33:18.460 --> 00:33:20.680
and<00:33:18.819><c> they</c><00:33:19.059><c> gave</c><00:33:19.200><c> him</c><00:33:19.420><c> a</c><00:33:19.559><c> good</c><00:33:19.819><c> beating.</c>

00:33:24.119 --> 00:33:25.839
Did<00:33:24.319><c> you</c><00:33:24.440><c> notice</c><00:33:24.680><c> when</c><00:33:24.839><c> we</c><00:33:25.200><c> first</c><00:33:25.519><c> started</c>

00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:28.339
reading<00:33:26.779><c> 1</c><00:33:27.119><c> Corinthians,</c>

00:33:28.900 --> 00:33:32.579
that<00:33:29.059><c> in</c><00:33:29.180><c> 1</c><00:33:29.420><c> Corinthians</c><00:33:29.839><c> chapter</c><00:33:30.339><c> 1,</c>

verse<00:33:33.299><c> 1,</c>

00:33:37.680 --> 00:33:39.380
the<00:33:37.859><c> salutation</c><00:33:38.380><c> goes</c><00:33:38.579><c> like</c><00:33:38.859><c> this,</c>

00:33:39.660 --> 00:33:43.599
Paul<00:33:40.220><c> called</c><00:33:40.880><c> to</c><00:33:41.200><c> be</c><00:33:41.440><c> an</c><00:33:41.700><c> apostle</c><00:33:42.160><c> of</c><00:33:42.380><c> Jesus</c><00:33:42.819><c> Christ</c>

00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:46.720
through<00:33:44.839><c> the</c><00:33:45.119><c> will</c><00:33:45.240><c> of</c><00:33:45.500><c> God</c>

00:33:47.609 --> 00:33:49.940
and<00:33:47.940><c> Sosthenes</c><00:33:48.599><c> our</c><00:33:48.859><c> brother.</c>

00:33:52.160 --> 00:33:54.099
Now<00:33:52.440><c> we</c><00:33:52.460><c> don't</c><00:33:52.759><c> know</c><00:33:53.019><c> for</c><00:33:53.279><c> sure</c><00:33:53.500><c> that</c><00:33:53.640><c> this</c><00:33:53.880><c> is</c>

00:33:54.099 --> 00:33:56.519
the<00:33:54.400><c> same</c><00:33:54.640><c> Sosthenes,</c>

00:33:58.079 --> 00:34:00.400
but<00:33:58.599><c> I</c><00:33:58.759><c> like</c><00:33:58.900><c> to</c><00:33:59.079><c> think</c><00:33:59.200><c> it</c><00:33:59.380><c> is.</c>

00:34:01.099 --> 00:34:02.720
For<00:34:01.359><c> one</c><00:34:01.579><c> thing</c><00:34:01.700><c> the</c><00:34:01.819><c> name</c><00:34:02.059><c> Sosthenes</c>

00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:05.059
is<00:34:02.920><c> a</c><00:34:03.000><c> fairly</c><00:34:03.319><c> uncommon</c><00:34:03.940><c> name.</c>

00:34:07.500 --> 00:34:09.599
So<00:34:07.799><c> if</c><00:34:08.099><c> it</c><00:34:08.280><c> is</c><00:34:08.519><c> the</c><00:34:08.719><c> same</c><00:34:08.980><c> Sosthenes,</c>

00:34:09.639 --> 00:34:12.000
let's<00:34:09.820><c> just</c><00:34:10.139><c> allow</c><00:34:10.380><c> ourselves</c><00:34:10.800><c> to</c><00:34:11.099><c> speculate.</c>

00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:15.500
How<00:34:12.699><c> would</c><00:34:12.900><c> it</c><00:34:13.019><c> have</c><00:34:13.260><c> been</c><00:34:13.500><c> that</c><00:34:13.719><c> this</c><00:34:14.079><c> man</c>

00:34:16.579 --> 00:34:19.980
who<00:34:17.099><c> had</c><00:34:17.320><c> set</c><00:34:17.539><c> out</c><00:34:17.739><c> to</c><00:34:18.000><c> persecute</c><00:34:18.519><c> the</c><00:34:18.719><c> Ecclesia</c>

00:34:23.199 --> 00:34:25.559
How<00:34:24.099><c> could</c><00:34:24.320><c> that</c><00:34:24.440><c> have</c><00:34:24.639><c> happened?</c>

00:34:26.340 --> 00:34:28.960
Was<00:34:26.559><c> it</c><00:34:26.739><c> possible</c><00:34:27.219><c> that</c><00:34:27.460><c> after</c><00:34:27.760><c> the</c><00:34:28.039><c> riot,</c>

00:34:29.820 --> 00:34:31.960
when<00:34:30.000><c> the</c><00:34:30.239><c> Greeks</c><00:34:30.440><c> had</c><00:34:30.719><c> given</c><00:34:31.159><c> Sosthenes</c>

00:34:31.960 --> 00:34:35.119
a<00:34:32.280><c> good</c><00:34:32.519><c> beating</c><00:34:33.000><c> and</c><00:34:33.820><c> left</c><00:34:34.039><c> him</c><00:34:34.400><c> battered</c>

00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:37.000
and<00:34:35.300><c> bleeding</c><00:34:35.579><c> in</c><00:34:35.780><c> the</c><00:34:35.940><c> road,</c>

00:34:38.639 --> 00:34:42.280
that<00:34:38.900><c> the</c><00:34:39.059><c> ones</c><00:34:39.300><c> that</c><00:34:39.519><c> he</c><00:34:39.739><c> had</c><00:34:40.440><c> intended</c><00:34:40.800><c> to</c><00:34:41.119><c> persecute</c>

00:34:42.280 --> 00:34:46.079

00:34:46.079 --> 00:34:50.159
showed<00:34:47.199><c> him</c><00:34:49.260><c> kindness</c>

00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:52.760

00:34:53.320 --> 00:34:56.260
And<00:34:53.599><c> that</c><00:34:53.860><c> maybe</c><00:34:54.179><c> the</c><00:34:54.460><c> workings</c><00:34:54.780><c> of</c><00:34:55.079><c> conscience</c>

00:35:00.059 --> 00:35:02.760
Maybe<00:35:00.539><c> that</c><00:35:00.860><c> Paul</c><00:35:01.000><c> was</c><00:35:01.219><c> able</c><00:35:01.460><c> to</c><00:35:01.619><c> preach</c><00:35:01.880><c> to</c><00:35:02.119><c> Sosthenes.</c>

00:35:03.219 --> 00:35:04.519
Well,<00:35:03.420><c> we</c><00:35:03.539><c> can't</c><00:35:03.780><c> say</c><00:35:04.000><c> for</c><00:35:04.219><c> sure,</c>

00:35:04.739 --> 00:35:05.940
but<00:35:04.900><c> you</c><00:35:05.039><c> know</c><00:35:05.139><c> it's</c><00:35:05.360><c> interesting</c>

00:35:05.940 --> 00:35:09.039
that<00:35:06.719><c> later</c><00:35:07.059><c> on</c><00:35:07.340><c> when</c><00:35:07.519><c> Paul</c><00:35:07.900><c> was</c><00:35:08.380><c> in</c><00:35:08.719><c> Corinth</c>

00:35:09.039 --> 00:35:12.139
and<00:35:09.280><c> he</c><00:35:09.559><c> wrote</c><00:35:09.739><c> his</c><00:35:09.980><c> letter</c><00:35:10.179><c> to</c><00:35:11.079><c> the</c><00:35:11.260><c> Romans,</c>

00:35:12.239 --> 00:35:14.960
Paul<00:35:12.519><c> spoke</c><00:35:12.880><c> of</c><00:35:13.039><c> being</c><00:35:13.380><c> more</c><00:35:13.739><c> than</c><00:35:13.960><c> conquerors.</c>

00:35:15.340 --> 00:35:15.619
He<00:35:15.480><c> said,</c>

00:35:15.699 --> 00:35:17.679
Who<00:35:15.820><c> shall</c><00:35:16.079><c> separate</c><00:35:16.460><c> us</c><00:35:16.639><c> from</c><00:35:16.800><c> the</c><00:35:16.960><c> love</c><00:35:17.099><c> of</c><00:35:17.300><c> Christ?</c>

For<00:35:24.119><c> thy</c><00:35:24.380><c> sake</c><00:35:24.599><c> we</c><00:35:24.760><c> are</c><00:35:24.860><c> killed</c><00:35:25.099><c> all</c><00:35:25.320><c> the</c><00:35:25.440><c> day</c><00:35:25.639><c> long.</c>

00:35:25.940 --> 00:35:28.139
We<00:35:26.039><c> are</c><00:35:26.219><c> counted</c><00:35:26.440><c> as</c><00:35:26.719><c> sheep</c><00:35:26.880><c> for</c><00:35:27.079><c> the</c><00:35:27.320><c> slaughter.</c>
