Well<00:03:02.699><c> done.</c>

00:03:03.780 --> 00:03:04.699

That's<00:03:05.580><c> fantastic.</c>

00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:07.800
She's<00:03:06.180><c> getting</c><00:03:06.439><c> serious.</c>

00:03:08.759 --> 00:03:10.000

00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:18.419
This<00:03:16.039><c> is</c><00:03:16.219><c> my</c><00:03:16.479><c> covenant</c><00:03:16.780><c> which</c><00:03:16.960><c> ye</c><00:03:17.139><c> shall</c><00:03:17.259><c> keep</c><00:03:17.500><c> between</c><00:03:17.900><c> me</c>

00:03:20.740 --> 00:03:21.280
All<00:03:20.979><c> right.</c>

00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:25.199
It<00:03:21.639><c> shall</c><00:03:21.740><c> be</c><00:03:21.960><c> a</c><00:03:22.120><c> token</c><00:03:22.360><c> of</c><00:03:22.560><c> the</c><00:03:22.840><c> covenant</c><00:03:23.219><c> between</c><00:03:23.680><c> me</c><00:03:23.960><c> and</c><00:03:24.099><c> you.</c>

00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:31.919
It<00:03:28.240><c> says</c><00:03:28.319><c> and</c><00:03:28.580><c> my</c><00:03:28.919><c> covenant</c><00:03:29.319><c> shall</c><00:03:29.539><c> be</c><00:03:29.939><c> in</c><00:03:30.659><c> your</c><00:03:31.360><c> flesh.</c>

00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:36.900
Now<00:03:32.599><c> notice</c><00:03:32.819><c> that</c><00:03:33.180><c> my</c><00:03:33.620><c> covenant</c><00:03:33.919><c> will</c><00:03:34.180><c> be</c><00:03:34.800><c> in</c><00:03:35.340><c> your</c><00:03:35.819><c> flesh.</c>

00:03:37.860 --> 00:03:42.759
Tomorrow<00:03:38.379><c> we're</c><00:03:38.900><c> going</c><00:03:38.960><c> to</c><00:03:39.039><c> be</c><00:03:39.259><c> talking</c><00:03:39.500><c> about</c><00:03:40.280><c> becoming</c><00:03:40.939><c> one</c><00:03:41.580><c> flesh.</c>

00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:43.960
All<00:03:43.500><c> right.</c>

00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:47.780
So<00:03:44.520><c> when</c><00:03:44.699><c> a</c><00:03:44.919><c> man</c><00:03:45.240><c> and</c><00:03:45.659><c> a</c><00:03:45.860><c> woman</c><00:03:46.300><c> sleep</c><00:03:46.960><c> together,</c><00:03:47.439><c> when</c><00:03:47.580><c> they</c>

00:03:51.659 --> 00:03:53.719
So<00:03:51.900><c> the</c><00:03:52.180><c> covenant</c><00:03:52.500><c> is</c><00:03:52.819><c> in</c><00:03:53.259><c> the</c><00:03:53.520><c> flesh.</c>

00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:55.300
This<00:03:54.000><c> is</c><00:03:54.240><c> now</c><00:03:54.479><c> getting</c><00:03:54.719><c> serious.</c>

00:03:55.539 --> 00:03:58.319
This<00:03:55.759><c> is</c><00:03:55.939><c> putting</c><00:03:56.180><c> sex</c><00:03:56.460><c> in</c><00:03:56.639><c> the</c><00:03:56.759><c> right</c><00:03:56.939><c> place,</c><00:03:57.639><c> not</c><00:03:57.900><c> where</c><00:03:58.099><c> the</c>

00:03:59.780 --> 00:04:00.159
All<00:04:00.000><c> right.</c>

00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:01.800
This<00:04:00.340><c> is</c><00:04:00.400><c> where</c><00:04:00.599><c> God</c><00:04:00.819><c> puts</c><00:04:01.099><c> it.</c>

00:04:02.099 --> 00:04:06.500
So<00:04:02.240><c> the</c><00:04:02.500><c> covenant</c><00:04:02.900><c> is</c><00:04:03.340><c> going</c><00:04:03.500><c> to</c><00:04:03.659><c> be</c><00:04:04.060><c> in</c><00:04:04.500><c> your</c><00:04:04.900><c> flesh</c><00:04:05.400><c> for</c><00:04:06.039><c> an</c>

00:04:06.500 --> 00:04:07.819
everlasting<00:04:07.240><c> covenant.</c>

00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:09.960
It's<00:04:08.379><c> not</c><00:04:08.479><c> a</c><00:04:08.639><c> covenant</c><00:04:08.800><c> that</c><00:04:09.060><c> has</c><00:04:09.240><c> a</c><00:04:09.360><c> beginning</c><00:04:09.560><c> and</c><00:04:09.680><c> an</c><00:04:09.840><c> end.</c>

00:04:10.060 --> 00:04:10.860
It's<00:04:10.280><c> an</c><00:04:10.460><c> everlasting.</c>

00:04:10.939 --> 00:04:14.199
The<00:04:11.219><c> principles</c><00:04:11.800><c> that</c><00:04:12.280><c> are</c><00:04:12.439><c> laid</c><00:04:12.599><c> down</c><00:04:12.879><c> here</c><00:04:13.340><c> are</c><00:04:13.819><c> forever</c>

00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:18.839
And<00:04:15.580><c> the</c><00:04:15.800><c> uncircumcised</c><00:04:16.480><c> man</c><00:04:16.800><c>-child</c><00:04:17.000><c> whose</c><00:04:17.259><c> flesh</c><00:04:17.600><c> of</c><00:04:18.019><c> his</c><00:04:18.240><c> foreskin</c><00:04:18.540><c> is</c>

that<00:04:20.540><c> soul</c><00:04:20.660><c> shall</c><00:04:20.839><c> be</c><00:04:21.000><c> cut</c><00:04:21.120><c> off</c><00:04:21.220><c> from</c><00:04:21.379><c> his</c><00:04:21.600><c> people</c><00:04:22.019><c> because</c><00:04:22.540><c> he</c>

has<00:04:22.899><c> broken</c><00:04:23.540><c> my</c><00:04:24.040><c> covenant.</c>

00:04:25.300 --> 00:04:29.000
So<00:04:25.579><c> this</c><00:04:25.759><c> whole</c><00:04:26.000><c> issue</c><00:04:26.240><c> of</c><00:04:26.519><c> a</c><00:04:26.680><c> covenant</c><00:04:26.939><c> is</c><00:04:27.199><c> a</c><00:04:27.279><c> very</c><00:04:27.660><c> serious</c><00:04:28.000><c> issue.</c>

What<00:06:43.639><c> was</c><00:06:43.899><c> the</c><00:06:44.519><c> common</c><00:06:44.800><c> ideas?</c>

00:06:45.319 --> 00:06:46.740
Anyone?

00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:55.060
Excellent,<00:06:54.000><c> well</c><00:06:54.220><c> done.</c>

00:06:56.160 --> 00:06:58.699
He's<00:06:56.439><c> getting</c><00:06:56.600><c> serious,</c><00:06:57.319><c> very</c><00:06:57.759><c> good.</c>

00:06:59.300 --> 00:07:00.759

00:07:01.060 --> 00:07:04.120
This<00:07:01.379><c> is</c><00:07:01.660><c> now</c><00:07:02.139><c> not</c><00:07:02.680><c> the</c><00:07:02.920><c> covenant</c><00:07:03.160><c> of</c><00:07:03.519><c> circumcision,</c>

as<00:07:04.420><c> you</c><00:07:04.680><c> find</c><00:07:05.120><c> in</c><00:07:05.899><c> Genesis</c><00:07:06.300><c> 17,</c>

00:07:07.500 --> 00:07:10.019
which<00:07:07.720><c> was</c><00:07:07.920><c> a</c><00:07:08.120><c> covenant</c><00:07:08.339><c> that</c><00:07:08.639><c> God</c><00:07:08.959><c> made</c><00:07:09.360><c> with</c><00:07:09.600><c> Abraham.</c>

00:07:10.379 --> 00:07:12.699
Abraham<00:07:10.879><c> did</c><00:07:11.120><c> not</c><00:07:11.279><c> make</c><00:07:11.459><c> that</c><00:07:11.800><c> covenant</c><00:07:12.120><c> with</c><00:07:12.339><c> God.</c>

00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:14.100
You<00:07:13.240><c> must</c><00:07:13.399><c> understand</c><00:07:13.819><c> that.</c>

00:07:14.100 --> 00:07:17.079
This<00:07:14.560><c> is</c><00:07:14.839><c> the</c><00:07:14.939><c> way</c><00:07:15.180><c> God</c><00:07:15.839><c> relates</c><00:07:16.379><c> to</c><00:07:16.620><c> us,</c>

00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:19.120
and<00:07:17.439><c> we</c><00:07:17.579><c> need</c><00:07:17.839><c> to</c><00:07:18.180><c> obey,</c>

00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:21.300
and<00:07:19.560><c> that's</c><00:07:20.139><c> the</c><00:07:20.279><c> way</c><00:07:20.560><c> things</c><00:07:20.879><c> are.</c>

00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:22.139
All<00:07:21.759><c> right?</c>

00:07:22.379 --> 00:07:23.379
And<00:07:22.439><c> ye</c><00:07:22.560><c> are</c><00:07:22.740><c> complete</c><00:07:23.060><c> in</c><00:07:23.240><c> him.</c>

00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:24.879
Who's<00:07:23.779><c> the</c><00:07:23.920><c> him</c><00:07:24.079><c> there?</c>

00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:27.360
Ye<00:07:26.480><c> are</c><00:07:26.639><c> complete</c><00:07:26.939><c> in</c><00:07:27.160><c> him.</c>

00:07:27.540 --> 00:07:28.500
What<00:07:27.779><c> him?</c>

00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:31.459
You<00:07:28.800><c> are</c><00:07:28.980><c> complete</c><00:07:29.379><c> in</c><00:07:29.720><c> the</c><00:07:29.879><c> Lord</c><00:07:30.060><c> Jesus</c><00:07:30.399><c> Christ,</c>

00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:34.279
which<00:07:31.699><c> is</c><00:07:31.899><c> the</c><00:07:32.040><c> head</c><00:07:32.139><c> of</c><00:07:32.300><c> all</c><00:07:32.540><c> principality</c><00:07:33.040><c> and</c><00:07:33.339><c> power,</c>

00:07:34.660 --> 00:07:37.660
in<00:07:34.959><c> whom</c><00:07:35.399><c> also</c><00:07:36.279><c> you</c><00:07:36.660><c> are</c><00:07:36.879><c> circumcised</c>

00:07:37.699 --> 00:07:40.819
with<00:07:38.120><c> a</c><00:07:38.379><c> circumcision</c><00:07:39.060><c> made</c><00:07:39.480><c> without</c><00:07:39.920><c> hands.</c>

00:07:40.899 --> 00:07:42.399
What<00:07:41.139><c> about</c><00:07:41.300><c> some</c><00:07:41.519><c> Bible</c><00:07:41.819><c> echoes</c><00:07:42.139><c> there?</c>

00:07:42.399 --> 00:07:44.160
Without<00:07:42.959><c> hands.</c>

00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:46.379
The<00:07:45.779><c> stone.</c>

00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:47.079
Very<00:07:46.860><c> good.</c>

00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:48.420
Which<00:07:47.339><c> stone?</c>

00:07:52.620 --> 00:07:53.439
That's<00:07:53.120><c> right.</c>

00:07:53.480 --> 00:07:55.100
And<00:07:53.660><c> that</c><00:07:53.800><c> is</c><00:07:54.079><c> where?</c>

00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:57.120
Daniel<00:07:55.980><c> chapter?</c>

00:07:57.759 --> 00:07:58.779
Daniel<00:07:58.100><c> chapter</c><00:07:58.500><c> 2.</c>

00:07:58.800 --> 00:07:59.240
That's<00:07:59.100><c> right.</c>

00:07:59.300 --> 00:08:00.220
We<00:07:59.399><c> have</c><00:07:59.500><c> that</c><00:07:59.779><c> great</c><00:07:59.980><c> image</c>

00:08:00.220 --> 00:08:01.560
which<00:08:00.439><c> stands</c><00:08:00.699><c> up</c><00:08:00.899><c> over</c><00:08:01.060><c> all</c><00:08:01.240><c> the</c><00:08:01.399><c> earth,</c>

00:08:01.860 --> 00:08:04.839
and<00:08:02.000><c> the</c><00:08:02.379><c> stone</c><00:08:02.879><c> that</c><00:08:03.300><c> is</c><00:08:03.540><c> made</c><00:08:03.740><c> without</c><00:08:04.220><c> hands</c>

00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:07.079
smuts<00:08:05.459><c> the</c><00:08:05.779><c> image</c><00:08:06.079><c> on</c><00:08:06.579><c> the</c><00:08:06.819><c> feet.</c>

00:08:07.379 --> 00:08:09.899
So<00:08:07.540><c> what</c><00:08:07.639><c> does</c><00:08:07.819><c> it</c><00:08:08.019><c> mean</c><00:08:08.120><c> when</c><00:08:08.300><c> it</c><00:08:08.540><c> says</c><00:08:08.720><c> made</c><00:08:09.160><c> without</c><00:08:09.519><c> hands?</c>

00:08:09.899 --> 00:08:11.800
What<00:08:10.100><c> are</c><00:08:10.259><c> we</c><00:08:10.360><c> being</c><00:08:10.560><c> told</c><00:08:10.860><c> there?</c>

00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:14.540
It's<00:08:13.519><c> not</c><00:08:13.819><c> man</c><00:08:14.339><c>-made.</c>

00:08:14.579 --> 00:08:14.959
That's<00:08:14.800><c> right,</c>

00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:17.160
because<00:08:15.220><c> we</c><00:08:15.420><c> like</c><00:08:15.620><c> to</c><00:08:15.879><c> worship</c><00:08:16.259><c> the</c><00:08:16.759><c> things</c>

00:08:17.160 --> 00:08:19.620
that<00:08:17.639><c> are</c><00:08:17.879><c> made</c><00:08:18.180><c> with</c><00:08:18.439><c> hands,</c>

00:08:19.740 --> 00:08:20.959
like<00:08:19.939><c> beautiful</c><00:08:20.360><c> cars,</c>

00:08:21.180 --> 00:08:22.279
and<00:08:21.279><c> beautiful</c><00:08:21.740><c> condos,</c>

00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:23.500
and<00:08:22.560><c> beautiful</c><00:08:23.000><c> yachts,</c>

00:08:23.500 --> 00:08:25.100
and<00:08:23.620><c> beautiful</c><00:08:24.079><c> aeroplanes.</c>

00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:26.660
We<00:08:25.439><c> like</c><00:08:25.639><c> to</c><00:08:25.879><c> worship</c><00:08:26.160><c> things</c>

00:08:26.660 --> 00:08:28.620
that<00:08:27.000><c> are</c><00:08:27.160><c> made</c><00:08:27.360><c> with</c><00:08:27.639><c> men's</c><00:08:28.160><c> hands.</c>

00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:31.480
But<00:08:29.160><c> this</c><00:08:29.459><c> is</c><00:08:30.060><c> something</c><00:08:30.399><c> that</c><00:08:30.600><c> is</c><00:08:30.800><c> made</c><00:08:30.920><c> without</c><00:08:31.259><c> hands.</c>

00:08:31.579 --> 00:08:33.039
It<00:08:31.680><c> is</c><00:08:32.200><c> divinely</c><00:08:32.620><c> made.</c>

00:08:33.379 --> 00:08:35.600
So<00:08:33.580><c> this</c><00:08:33.779><c> is</c><00:08:34.039><c> a</c><00:08:34.159><c> circumcision</c><00:08:34.679><c> made</c><00:08:34.940><c> without</c><00:08:35.259><c> hands.</c>

00:08:35.980 --> 00:08:37.240
So<00:08:36.139><c> you</c><00:08:36.159><c> can</c><00:08:36.320><c> see</c><00:08:36.399><c> there's</c><00:08:36.620><c> a</c><00:08:36.779><c> contrast.</c>

00:08:37.580 --> 00:08:38.539
In<00:08:37.759><c> the</c><00:08:37.879><c> Old</c><00:08:38.039><c> Testament,</c>

00:08:38.539 --> 00:08:40.860
there<00:08:38.600><c> was</c><00:08:39.159><c> a</c><00:08:39.299><c> circumcision</c><00:08:39.820><c> made</c><00:08:40.179><c> with</c><00:08:40.480><c> hands,</c>

00:08:41.340 --> 00:08:43.299
and<00:08:41.340><c> I</c><00:08:41.519><c> explained</c><00:08:41.840><c> that</c><00:08:42.080><c> to</c><00:08:42.159><c> you</c><00:08:42.259><c> in</c><00:08:42.340><c> detail</c><00:08:42.600><c> the</c><00:08:42.759><c> other</c><00:08:42.940><c> day.</c>

00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:45.620
And<00:08:43.820><c> a</c><00:08:43.820><c> lot</c><00:08:43.940><c> of</c><00:08:44.080><c> you</c><00:08:44.220><c> guys</c><00:08:44.539><c> kind</c><00:08:44.720><c> of</c><00:08:44.879><c> got</c><00:08:45.000><c> all</c><00:08:45.220><c> embarrassed,</c>

00:08:45.700 --> 00:08:47.059
so<00:08:45.820><c> I'm</c><00:08:45.860><c> not</c><00:08:46.019><c> going</c><00:08:46.179><c> to</c><00:08:46.299><c> explain</c><00:08:46.460><c> it</c><00:08:46.620><c> to</c><00:08:46.679><c> you</c><00:08:46.759><c> again.</c>

00:08:47.460 --> 00:08:47.899
Were<00:08:47.539><c> you</c><00:08:47.639><c> embarrassed</c>

00:08:47.899 --> 00:08:50.100
when<00:08:48.039><c> I</c><00:08:48.179><c> was</c><00:08:48.299><c> explaining</c><00:08:48.500><c> circumcision</c><00:08:49.059><c> the</c><00:08:49.200><c> other</c><00:08:49.340><c> day?</c>

00:08:52.019 --> 00:08:52.740
You<00:08:52.379><c> weren't.</c>

00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:53.960
That's<00:08:53.240><c> good.</c>

00:08:54.100 --> 00:08:54.340
All<00:08:54.220><c> right.</c>

00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:56.340
So<00:08:54.500><c> this</c><00:08:54.679><c> is</c><00:08:54.860><c> a</c><00:08:54.980><c> circumcision</c><00:08:55.399><c> made</c><00:08:55.700><c> without</c><00:08:56.059><c> hands.</c>

00:08:56.580 --> 00:08:58.399
You<00:08:56.679><c> didn't</c><00:08:56.820><c> have</c><00:08:57.019><c> a</c><00:08:57.179><c> rabbi</c><00:08:57.440><c> that</c><00:08:57.600><c> had</c><00:08:57.779><c> thick</c><00:08:58.019><c> glasses</c>

00:08:58.399 --> 00:09:00.840
with<00:08:58.659><c> a</c><00:08:58.779><c> little</c><00:08:59.000><c> blade,</c><00:09:00.100><c> you</c><00:09:00.320><c> see,</c><00:09:00.500><c> and</c><00:09:00.600><c> all</c><00:09:00.740><c> that.</c>

00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:02.700
That<00:09:01.240><c> was</c><00:09:01.419><c> a</c><00:09:01.580><c> circumcision</c><00:09:02.019><c> made</c><00:09:02.220><c> with</c><00:09:02.399><c> hands.</c>

00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:05.639
This<00:09:03.279><c> is</c><00:09:03.480><c> a</c><00:09:03.600><c> circumcision</c><00:09:04.080><c> made</c><00:09:04.340><c> without</c><00:09:04.659><c> hands.</c>

00:09:05.700 --> 00:09:06.179
All<00:09:05.919><c> right.</c>

00:09:06.179 --> 00:09:09.279
Now<00:09:06.860><c> we</c><00:09:06.980><c> have</c><00:09:07.240><c> an</c><00:09:07.659><c> explanation</c><00:09:08.279><c> of</c><00:09:08.460><c> what</c><00:09:08.639><c> that</c><00:09:08.860><c> means.</c>

00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:12.360
In<00:09:09.799><c> the</c><00:09:10.019><c> putting</c><00:09:10.220><c> off</c><00:09:10.500><c> of</c><00:09:10.679><c> the</c><00:09:10.840><c> body</c><00:09:11.100><c> of</c><00:09:11.360><c> the</c><00:09:11.480><c> sins</c><00:09:11.700><c> of</c><00:09:11.899><c> the</c><00:09:12.100><c> flesh</c>

00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:14.580
by<00:09:12.779><c> the</c><00:09:13.019><c> circumcision</c><00:09:13.480><c> of</c><00:09:13.740><c> Christ.</c>

00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:16.740
Well,<00:09:15.460><c> what</c><00:09:15.620><c> does</c><00:09:15.759><c> that</c><00:09:16.000><c> mean?</c>

00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:19.899
Let's<00:09:17.919><c> come</c><00:09:18.259><c> to</c><00:09:18.940><c> Yonatan.</c>

00:09:20.580 --> 00:09:21.600
Yonatan,<00:09:20.919><c> what</c><00:09:21.039><c> does</c><00:09:21.200><c> that</c><00:09:21.399><c> mean?</c>

00:09:21.779 --> 00:09:24.259
In<00:09:22.120><c> putting</c><00:09:22.360><c> off</c><00:09:22.740><c> the</c><00:09:22.919><c> body</c><00:09:23.220><c> of</c><00:09:23.460><c> the</c><00:09:23.580><c> sins</c><00:09:23.779><c> of</c><00:09:23.960><c> the</c><00:09:24.120><c> flesh.</c>

00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:25.720
What<00:09:24.440><c> does</c><00:09:24.580><c> that</c><00:09:24.759><c> actually</c><00:09:24.980><c> mean?</c>

00:09:29.980 --> 00:09:34.100
You're<00:09:30.419><c> killing</c><00:09:30.860><c> your,</c><00:09:31.919><c> as</c><00:09:32.700><c> it</c><00:09:32.879><c> were,</c><00:09:33.240><c> symbolically,</c>

00:09:34.460 --> 00:09:38.840
killing<00:09:34.840><c> your</c><00:09:35.220><c> old</c><00:09:35.460><c> way</c><00:09:36.440><c> of</c><00:09:36.659><c> life,</c><00:09:37.279><c> which</c><00:09:37.399><c> is</c><00:09:37.679><c> a</c><00:09:37.820><c> sinful</c><00:09:38.120><c> man.</c>

00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:39.879
In<00:09:39.500><c> baptism.</c>

00:09:40.159 --> 00:09:43.440
But<00:09:40.600><c> is</c><00:09:40.700><c> that</c><00:09:40.899><c> just</c><00:09:41.039><c> done</c><00:09:41.139><c> in</c><00:09:41.399><c> symbol</c><00:09:41.620><c> or</c><00:09:41.779><c> is</c><00:09:41.940><c> that</c><00:09:42.100><c> done</c><00:09:42.259><c> in</c><00:09:43.019><c> reality?</c>

00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:46.059
You<00:09:44.059><c> have</c><00:09:44.159><c> to</c><00:09:44.279><c> do</c><00:09:44.419><c> it</c><00:09:45.039><c> inside.</c>

00:09:46.220 --> 00:09:47.379
It<00:09:46.379><c> has</c><00:09:46.600><c> to</c><00:09:46.720><c> happen</c><00:09:46.919><c> inside.</c>

00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:48.940
In<00:09:47.559><c> other</c><00:09:47.759><c> words,</c><00:09:47.960><c> this</c><00:09:48.159><c> is</c><00:09:48.360><c> an</c><00:09:48.419><c> operation.</c>

00:09:48.980 --> 00:09:49.799
I'm<00:09:48.980><c> talking</c><00:09:48.980><c> about</c><00:09:49.080><c> your</c><00:09:49.259><c> old</c><00:09:49.519><c> man.</c>

00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:50.500
That's<00:09:50.259><c> right.</c>

00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.200
My<00:09:50.720><c> dad</c><00:09:50.940><c> wouldn't</c><00:09:51.200><c> like</c><00:09:51.340><c> that.</c>

00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:53.799
Why<00:09:53.080><c> wouldn't</c><00:09:53.240><c> he</c><00:09:53.340><c> like</c><00:09:53.539><c> that?</c>

00:09:53.799 --> 00:09:57.259
We<00:09:53.799><c> don't</c><00:09:55.200><c> want</c><00:09:55.360><c> to</c><00:09:55.460><c> involve</c><00:09:55.639><c> your</c><00:09:55.860><c> dad</c><00:09:55.980><c> in</c><00:09:56.120><c> this.</c>

00:09:58.279 --> 00:09:58.500
Oh,<00:09:58.500><c> yeah.</c>

00:09:58.940 --> 00:09:59.740
Well,<00:09:59.080><c> let's</c><00:09:59.279><c> call</c><00:09:59.379><c> him</c><00:09:59.500><c> your</c><00:09:59.659><c> dad.</c>

00:09:59.820 --> 00:10:01.480
Why<00:09:59.960><c> wouldn't</c><00:10:00.139><c> your</c><00:10:00.279><c> dad</c><00:10:00.460><c> like</c><00:10:00.740><c> that?</c>

00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:05.259
Oh,<00:10:04.159><c> killing</c><00:10:04.240><c> off</c><00:10:04.460><c> the</c><00:10:04.659><c> old</c><00:10:04.960><c> man.</c>

00:10:05.419 --> 00:10:05.820
Okay.

00:10:05.980 --> 00:10:07.080
Very<00:10:06.240><c> good.</c>

00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:07.440
Okay.

00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:10.620
So<00:10:07.600><c> this</c><00:10:07.860><c> is</c><00:10:09.139><c> terrible.</c>

00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:12.059
Very<00:10:11.200><c> good.</c>

00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:12.320
Okay.

00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:13.639
I'm<00:10:12.539><c> sorry,</c><00:10:12.899><c> but</c><00:10:12.980><c> I'm</c><00:10:13.159><c> from</c><00:10:13.340><c> South</c><00:10:13.440><c> Africa.</c>

00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:14.759
I<00:10:13.799><c> come</c><00:10:13.899><c> from</c><00:10:14.100><c> the</c><00:10:14.259><c> dark</c><00:10:14.460><c> continent.</c>

00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:16.120
I'm<00:10:14.919><c> a</c><00:10:15.019><c> little</c><00:10:15.179><c> bit</c><00:10:15.440><c> slow.</c>

00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:17.019
All<00:10:16.720><c> right.</c>

00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:19.059
Can<00:10:17.259><c> you</c><00:10:17.399><c> forgive</c><00:10:17.620><c> me?</c>

00:10:19.940 --> 00:10:20.840
Okay.

00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.320
I'll<00:10:21.120><c> try</c><00:10:21.220><c> my</c><00:10:21.399><c> best.</c>

00:10:22.460 --> 00:10:22.860
All<00:10:22.620><c> right.</c>

00:10:22.860 --> 00:10:25.139
So<00:10:23.299><c> we're</c><00:10:23.419><c> talking</c><00:10:23.580><c> about</c><00:10:23.899><c> the</c><00:10:24.139><c> putting</c><00:10:24.320><c> off</c><00:10:24.539><c> of</c><00:10:24.679><c> the</c><00:10:24.799><c> body</c><00:10:24.980><c> of</c>

00:10:25.139 --> 00:10:28.120
the<00:10:25.259><c> sins</c><00:10:25.399><c> of</c><00:10:25.580><c> the</c><00:10:25.740><c> flesh</c><00:10:25.940><c> by</c><00:10:26.200><c> the</c><00:10:26.519><c> circumcision</c><00:10:27.039><c> of</c><00:10:27.240><c> Christ.</c>

00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:29.679
So<00:10:28.320><c> this</c><00:10:28.419><c> is</c><00:10:28.419><c> something</c><00:10:28.679><c> that</c><00:10:28.919><c> happens</c><00:10:29.179><c> inside.</c>

00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:31.220
It's<00:10:30.039><c> an</c><00:10:30.220><c> internal</c><00:10:30.740><c> process.</c>

00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:32.700
It's<00:10:31.600><c> not</c><00:10:31.779><c> an</c><00:10:31.960><c> external</c><00:10:32.320><c> process.</c>

00:10:33.019 --> 00:10:35.340
The<00:10:33.220><c> circumcision</c><00:10:33.620><c> that</c><00:10:33.799><c> I</c><00:10:34.000><c> explained</c><00:10:34.139><c> to</c><00:10:34.259><c> you</c><00:10:34.320><c> the</c><00:10:34.460><c> other</c><00:10:34.620><c> day</c><00:10:34.840><c> was</c><00:10:35.080><c> an</c>

00:10:35.340 --> 00:10:36.120
external<00:10:35.779><c> process.</c>

00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:36.759
You<00:10:36.279><c> could</c><00:10:36.480><c> see</c><00:10:36.639><c> it.</c>

00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:39.000
You<00:10:36.820><c> could</c><00:10:37.000><c> see</c><00:10:37.159><c> the</c><00:10:37.279><c> little</c><00:10:37.419><c> guy</c><00:10:37.600><c> scream</c><00:10:37.940><c> when</c><00:10:38.100><c> he</c><00:10:38.460><c> had</c><00:10:38.820><c> his</c>

00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:39.899
little<00:10:39.240><c> foreskin</c><00:10:39.539><c> cut</c><00:10:39.759><c> off.</c>

00:10:40.059 --> 00:10:41.139
You<00:10:40.179><c> could</c><00:10:40.340><c> see</c><00:10:40.500><c> the</c><00:10:40.700><c> party</c><00:10:40.860><c> happening.</c>

00:10:41.220 --> 00:10:42.179
You<00:10:41.240><c> could</c><00:10:41.440><c> see</c><00:10:41.580><c> him</c><00:10:41.720><c> going</c><00:10:41.960><c> red.</c>

00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:43.320
You<00:10:42.340><c> could</c><00:10:42.539><c> see</c><00:10:42.720><c> him</c><00:10:42.940><c> screaming.</c>

00:10:43.820 --> 00:10:47.659
You<00:10:43.940><c> could</c><00:10:44.159><c> see</c><00:10:44.340><c> the</c><00:10:44.600><c> blind</c><00:10:44.879><c> rabbi</c><00:10:45.299><c> with</c><00:10:45.440><c> his</c><00:10:45.620><c> little,</c><00:10:47.139><c> yeah.</c>

00:10:48.220 --> 00:10:49.179
You<00:10:48.340><c> could</c><00:10:48.519><c> see</c><00:10:48.799><c> it</c><00:10:49.000><c> all.</c>

00:10:49.179 --> 00:10:52.519
But<00:10:49.840><c> this</c><00:10:50.179><c> is</c><00:10:50.480><c> invisible</c><00:10:50.899><c> because</c><00:10:51.240><c> it</c><00:10:51.419><c> happens</c><00:10:51.840><c> inside.</c>

00:10:53.019 --> 00:10:55.419
It's<00:10:53.139><c> like</c><00:10:53.379><c> the</c><00:10:53.679><c> pearl</c><00:10:54.000><c> of</c><00:10:54.539><c> great</c><00:10:54.879><c> price.</c>

00:10:55.879 --> 00:10:57.620
You<00:10:55.899><c> know</c><00:10:55.980><c> how</c><00:10:56.279><c> a</c><00:10:56.419><c> pearl</c><00:10:56.580><c> is</c><00:10:56.860><c> formed?</c>

00:10:57.759 --> 00:11:01.039
A<00:10:58.000><c> pearl</c><00:10:58.360><c> is</c><00:10:58.740><c> formed</c><00:10:59.200><c> away</c><00:10:59.940><c> from</c><00:11:00.320><c> human</c><00:11:00.659><c> sight.</c>

00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:04.539
It's<00:11:01.460><c> created</c><00:11:01.779><c> by</c><00:11:02.080><c> irritation</c><00:11:02.720><c> down</c><00:11:03.480><c> in</c><00:11:03.700><c> the</c><00:11:03.799><c> depths</c><00:11:04.019><c> of</c><00:11:04.399><c> the</c>

00:11:06.820 --> 00:11:09.639
And<00:11:06.980><c> there</c><00:11:07.120><c> in</c><00:11:07.220><c> this</c><00:11:07.659><c> ugly</c><00:11:08.100><c> looking</c><00:11:08.480><c> shell,</c><00:11:08.740><c> because</c><00:11:08.899><c> you</c><00:11:08.960><c> know</c><00:11:09.220><c> the</c>

00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:11.360
pearl<00:11:09.919><c> shell</c><00:11:10.059><c> looks</c><00:11:10.240><c> really</c><00:11:10.519><c> ugly</c><00:11:10.740><c> on</c><00:11:10.899><c> the</c><00:11:11.000><c> outside,</c><00:11:11.220><c> just</c>

00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:12.220
like<00:11:11.519><c> the</c><00:11:11.720><c> tabernacle.</c>

00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:16.039
Look<00:11:12.519><c> really</c><00:11:12.840><c> ugly</c><00:11:13.360><c> on</c><00:11:13.580><c> the</c><00:11:13.720><c> outside,</c><00:11:14.000><c> but</c><00:11:14.200><c> inside</c><00:11:14.860><c> it</c><00:11:15.220><c> was</c><00:11:15.360><c> fantastic.</c>

00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:16.759
You<00:11:16.620><c> see?</c>

00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:18.200
So<00:11:17.320><c> there's</c><00:11:17.620><c> that</c><00:11:17.779><c> little</c><00:11:18.039><c> pearl.</c>

00:11:18.539 --> 00:11:19.899
And<00:11:18.779><c> it</c><00:11:18.940><c> starts</c><00:11:19.120><c> with</c><00:11:19.379><c> irritation.</c>

00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:21.559
That's<00:11:20.200><c> how</c><00:11:20.360><c> it</c><00:11:20.559><c> starts</c><00:11:20.879><c> inside</c><00:11:21.279><c> there.</c>

00:11:21.820 --> 00:11:25.159
Somebody<00:11:22.220><c> somewhere</c><00:11:22.860><c> says</c><00:11:23.240><c> something</c><00:11:23.659><c> and</c><00:11:24.159><c> it</c><00:11:24.480><c> irritates</c><00:11:24.919><c> you.</c>

00:11:25.220 --> 00:11:27.019
And<00:11:25.299><c> you</c><00:11:25.379><c> go</c><00:11:25.539><c> to</c><00:11:25.679><c> bed</c><00:11:25.799><c> that</c><00:11:26.039><c> night</c><00:11:26.200><c> and</c><00:11:26.360><c> it's</c><00:11:26.480><c> like</c><00:11:26.659><c> a</c><00:11:26.799><c> little</c>

00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:30.379
And<00:11:29.659><c> it</c><00:11:29.840><c> starts</c><00:11:30.019><c> working.</c>

00:11:30.700 --> 00:11:34.259
And<00:11:30.860><c> that</c><00:11:31.000><c> little</c><00:11:31.200><c> irritation</c><00:11:31.940><c> starts</c><00:11:33.080><c> and</c><00:11:33.279><c> it</c><00:11:33.519><c> starts</c><00:11:33.740><c> working</c><00:11:34.059><c> up</c>

00:11:34.259 --> 00:11:36.100

00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:40.139
And<00:11:36.620><c> if</c><00:11:36.740><c> you</c><00:11:36.919><c> take</c><00:11:37.179><c> a</c><00:11:37.460><c> very</c><00:11:37.980><c> good</c><00:11:38.440><c> pearl</c><00:11:38.840><c> and</c><00:11:39.240><c> you</c><00:11:39.399><c> cut</c><00:11:39.519><c> the</c><00:11:39.740><c> pearl</c><00:11:39.940><c> in</c>

00:11:40.139 --> 00:11:41.720
half,<00:11:40.600><c> it's</c><00:11:40.820><c> like</c><00:11:40.980><c> the</c><00:11:41.139><c> rings</c><00:11:41.320><c> of</c><00:11:41.500><c> a</c><00:11:41.639><c> tree.</c>

00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:45.320
You<00:11:41.820><c> can</c><00:11:42.059><c> see</c><00:11:42.279><c> all</c><00:11:42.600><c> the</c><00:11:42.799><c> layers</c><00:11:43.320><c> of</c><00:11:43.960><c> this</c><00:11:44.399><c> kind</c><00:11:44.639><c> of</c><00:11:44.840><c> secretion</c>

00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:47.840
that<00:11:45.480><c> comes</c><00:11:45.679><c> out</c><00:11:45.860><c> of</c><00:11:45.960><c> the</c><00:11:46.120><c> shell</c><00:11:46.340><c> that</c><00:11:46.799><c> forms</c><00:11:47.200><c> the</c><00:11:47.460><c> pearl.</c>

00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:52.259
Made<00:11:48.639><c> away</c><00:11:49.159><c> from</c><00:11:49.399><c> the</c><00:11:49.600><c> sight</c><00:11:49.720><c> of</c><00:11:49.919><c> man</c><00:11:50.279><c> because</c><00:11:50.980><c> it</c><00:11:51.139><c> is</c><00:11:51.419><c> made</c><00:11:51.759><c> by</c><00:11:52.039><c> God.</c>

00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:53.639
It's<00:11:52.659><c> divinely</c><00:11:53.100><c> made.</c>

00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:55.120
All<00:11:54.240><c> right?</c>

00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:58.440
So<00:11:55.720><c> it</c><00:11:55.879><c> says</c><00:11:56.000><c> here</c><00:11:56.159><c> that</c><00:11:56.299><c> we</c><00:11:56.399><c> are</c><00:11:56.740><c> buried</c><00:11:57.000><c> with</c><00:11:57.240><c> him</c><00:11:57.340><c> in</c><00:11:57.559><c> baptism.</c>

00:11:59.220 --> 00:12:00.860
Now<00:11:59.299><c> you</c><00:11:59.360><c> know</c><00:11:59.480><c> that</c><00:11:59.600><c> a</c><00:11:59.679><c> lot</c><00:11:59.759><c> of</c><00:11:59.879><c> the</c><00:12:00.019><c> churches</c><00:12:00.259><c> teach</c><00:12:00.539><c> that</c><00:12:00.700><c> we</c>

00:12:00.860 --> 00:12:01.960
can<00:12:01.139><c> christen.</c>

00:12:02.419 --> 00:12:03.419
You<00:12:02.519><c> know</c><00:12:02.600><c> what</c><00:12:02.720><c> christening</c><00:12:02.980><c> is?</c>

00:12:03.779 --> 00:12:05.440
Take<00:12:03.940><c> a</c><00:12:04.080><c> couple</c><00:12:04.220><c> of</c><00:12:04.360><c> drops</c><00:12:04.480><c> of</c><00:12:04.659><c> water</c><00:12:04.779><c> and</c><00:12:04.919><c> they</c><00:12:05.100><c> sprinkle</c><00:12:05.320><c> it</c>

00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:05.940
on<00:12:05.559><c> your</c><00:12:05.740><c> head.</c>

00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:07.539
And<00:12:06.419><c> they</c><00:12:06.580><c> say</c><00:12:06.679><c> that</c><00:12:06.840><c> that</c><00:12:06.980><c> is</c><00:12:07.139><c> baptism.</c>

00:12:07.539 --> 00:12:12.200
But<00:12:07.539><c> this</c><00:12:08.820><c> verse</c><00:12:09.059><c> tells</c><00:12:09.299><c> me</c><00:12:09.519><c> that</c><00:12:09.639><c> that's</c><00:12:09.799><c> not</c><00:12:09.980><c> baptism</c><00:12:10.340><c> because</c><00:12:10.919><c> how</c><00:12:11.220><c> can</c><00:12:11.379><c> you</c><00:12:11.519><c> be</c><00:12:11.720><c> buried</c><00:12:11.899><c> in</c><00:12:12.059><c> a</c>

00:12:13.980 --> 00:12:15.840
Could<00:12:14.059><c> you</c><00:12:14.220><c> be</c><00:12:14.440><c> buried</c><00:12:14.559><c> in</c><00:12:14.700><c> a</c><00:12:14.820><c> teaspoon</c><00:12:15.019><c> of</c><00:12:15.299><c> water?</c>

00:12:17.379 --> 00:12:18.940
Use<00:12:17.720><c> your</c><00:12:18.000><c> wildest</c><00:12:18.399><c> imagination.</c>

00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:20.059
Tell<00:12:19.159><c> me</c><00:12:19.259><c> how</c><00:12:19.379><c> you</c><00:12:19.500><c> could</c><00:12:19.679><c> be...</c>

00:12:20.059 --> 00:12:22.159
You<00:12:20.220><c> could</c><00:12:20.440><c> drink</c><00:12:20.700><c> it</c><00:12:20.980><c> and</c><00:12:21.200><c> it</c><00:12:21.519><c> could</c><00:12:21.519><c> disperse</c><00:12:21.820><c> throughout</c>

00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:23.220
your<00:12:22.500><c> entire</c><00:12:22.860><c> body.</c>

00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:24.720
That<00:12:23.700><c> would</c><00:12:23.879><c> be</c><00:12:24.059><c> it.</c>

00:12:25.039 --> 00:12:25.980
Fantastic.

00:12:27.500 --> 00:12:29.860
You<00:12:27.759><c> must</c><00:12:27.980><c> go</c><00:12:28.159><c> and</c><00:12:28.259><c> study</c><00:12:28.460><c> theology</c><00:12:28.919><c> because</c><00:12:29.139><c> that's</c><00:12:29.419><c> the</c><00:12:29.539><c> kind</c><00:12:29.700><c> of</c>

00:12:29.860 --> 00:12:31.879
nonsense<00:12:30.139><c> the</c><00:12:30.419><c> theologians</c><00:12:30.799><c> talk</c><00:12:31.059><c> about.</c>

00:12:32.700 --> 00:12:34.039
Buried<00:12:33.120><c> with</c><00:12:33.320><c> him</c><00:12:33.440><c> in</c><00:12:33.639><c> baptism.</c>

00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:36.059
Now<00:12:34.460><c> if</c><00:12:34.580><c> you're</c><00:12:34.840><c> buried</c><00:12:35.039><c> with</c><00:12:35.179><c> him</c><00:12:35.320><c> in</c><00:12:35.480><c> baptism,</c><00:12:35.940><c> you</c><00:12:36.000><c> know</c>

00:12:36.059 --> 00:12:37.120
what<00:12:36.200><c> the</c><00:12:36.240><c> word</c><00:12:36.440><c> baptism</c><00:12:36.820><c> means.</c>

00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:39.399
What<00:12:37.340><c> does</c><00:12:37.600><c> baptism</c><00:12:38.019><c> mean?</c>

00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:44.460
It<00:12:40.860><c> means</c><00:12:41.120><c> to</c><00:12:41.399><c> sink</c><00:12:41.820><c> or</c><00:12:42.440><c> to</c><00:12:42.700><c> dip</c><00:12:42.960><c> or</c><00:12:43.460><c> to</c><00:12:43.759><c> immerse.</c>

00:12:44.519 --> 00:12:48.980
When<00:12:44.720><c> a</c><00:12:44.980><c> ship</c><00:12:45.259><c> was</c><00:12:45.659><c> sailing</c><00:12:45.899><c> along</c><00:12:46.139><c> the</c><00:12:46.379><c> sea</c><00:12:46.620><c> and</c><00:12:47.100><c> they</c><00:12:48.299><c> shot</c><00:12:48.720><c> a</c>

00:12:48.980 --> 00:12:51.480
torpedo<00:12:49.700><c> at</c><00:12:49.879><c> the</c><00:12:50.039><c> thing</c><00:12:50.200><c> and</c><00:12:50.559><c> it</c><00:12:50.659><c> went</c><00:12:50.759><c> under</c><00:12:51.019><c> the</c><00:12:51.159><c> water.</c>

00:12:51.960 --> 00:12:54.700
You<00:12:52.100><c> say</c><00:12:52.259><c> that</c><00:12:52.500><c> that</c><00:12:52.720><c> ship</c><00:12:52.919><c> was</c><00:12:53.200><c> now</c><00:12:53.460><c> baptized</c><00:12:53.899><c> because</c><00:12:54.340><c> it</c>

00:12:54.700 --> 00:12:56.320
went<00:12:54.980><c> under</c><00:12:55.340><c> the</c><00:12:55.500><c> water.</c>

00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:59.500
So<00:12:57.000><c> that's</c><00:12:57.320><c> you</c><00:12:57.559><c> buried</c><00:12:58.139><c> in</c><00:12:59.139><c> baptism.</c>

00:12:59.659 --> 00:13:00.759
You<00:12:59.779><c> buried</c><00:13:00.240><c> in</c><00:13:00.500><c> water.</c>

00:13:00.899 --> 00:13:03.320
Buried<00:13:01.340><c> with</c><00:13:01.519><c> him</c><00:13:01.659><c> in</c><00:13:01.860><c> baptism.</c>

00:13:03.940 --> 00:13:07.379
Wherein<00:13:04.440><c> also</c><00:13:04.919><c> you</c><00:13:05.240><c> are</c><00:13:05.620><c> risen</c><00:13:05.919><c> with</c><00:13:06.220><c> him</c><00:13:06.620><c> through</c><00:13:06.980><c> the</c><00:13:07.200><c> faith</c>

00:13:07.379 --> 00:13:08.399
of<00:13:07.559><c> the</c><00:13:07.679><c> operation</c><00:13:08.059><c> of</c><00:13:08.240><c> God.</c>

00:13:08.419 --> 00:13:11.279
So<00:13:08.559><c> we</c><00:13:08.700><c> see</c><00:13:08.840><c> that</c><00:13:09.000><c> this</c><00:13:09.179><c> is</c><00:13:09.740><c> not</c><00:13:10.000><c> made</c><00:13:10.460><c> by</c><00:13:10.779><c> human</c><00:13:11.019><c> hands.</c>

00:13:11.299 --> 00:13:14.419
This<00:13:11.500><c> is</c><00:13:11.740><c> by</c><00:13:12.120><c> God's</c><00:13:13.580><c> ordinance.</c>

00:13:14.580 --> 00:13:18.340
It's<00:13:14.919><c> getting</c><00:13:15.240><c> serious</c><00:13:16.000><c> about</c><00:13:17.120><c> understanding</c><00:13:17.919><c> covenant.</c>

00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:20.360
So<00:13:18.539><c> we're</c><00:13:18.799><c> buried</c><00:13:19.039><c> with</c><00:13:19.200><c> him</c><00:13:19.299><c> in</c><00:13:19.480><c> baptism.</c>

00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:23.059
And<00:13:20.659><c> if</c><00:13:20.860><c> you</c><00:13:21.059><c> buried</c><00:13:21.279><c> and</c><00:13:21.460><c> you</c><00:13:21.700><c> stay</c><00:13:21.840><c> there,</c><00:13:21.980><c> what</c><00:13:22.159><c> happens?</c>

00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:26.539
You<00:13:24.419><c> drown,</c><00:13:25.620><c> right?</c>

00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:29.980
But<00:13:26.899><c> fortunately,</c><00:13:28.100><c> what</c><00:13:28.299><c> happens</c><00:13:28.759><c> is</c><00:13:28.980><c> that</c><00:13:29.200><c> you</c><00:13:29.379><c> come</c><00:13:29.539><c> up</c><00:13:29.779><c> again.</c>

00:13:29.980 --> 00:13:34.039
And<00:13:30.159><c> as</c><00:13:30.320><c> you</c><00:13:30.440><c> come</c><00:13:30.600><c> up</c><00:13:30.740><c> again,</c><00:13:30.960><c> that's</c><00:13:31.620><c> a</c><00:13:31.840><c> picture</c><00:13:32.220><c> of</c><00:13:32.720><c> the</c><00:13:33.019><c> resurrection.</c>

00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:35.940
That<00:13:34.379><c> you</c><00:13:34.539><c> are</c><00:13:34.740><c> risen</c><00:13:34.940><c> with</c><00:13:35.179><c> him</c><00:13:35.360><c> through</c><00:13:35.620><c> faith.</c>

00:13:36.039 --> 00:13:37.220
Believing<00:13:36.480><c> in</c><00:13:36.639><c> the</c><00:13:36.799><c> resurrection.</c>

00:13:37.700 --> 00:13:40.100
Believing<00:13:38.019><c> that</c><00:13:38.240><c> God</c><00:13:38.620><c> raised</c><00:13:38.980><c> Jesus.</c>

00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:43.639
Believing<00:13:40.700><c> that</c><00:13:41.159><c> because</c><00:13:41.519><c> we</c><00:13:41.679><c> have</c><00:13:41.879><c> faith</c><00:13:42.080><c> in</c><00:13:42.279><c> that,</c><00:13:42.820><c> we</c><00:13:43.379><c> will</c>

00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:44.480
also<00:13:43.879><c> be</c><00:13:44.159><c> raised.</c>

00:13:44.580 --> 00:13:47.759
And<00:13:44.799><c> it</c><00:13:44.899><c> will</c><00:13:45.059><c> be</c><00:13:45.259><c> done</c><00:13:45.539><c> by</c><00:13:45.940><c> the</c><00:13:46.139><c> operation</c><00:13:46.600><c> of</c><00:13:46.779><c> God</c><00:13:47.100><c> who</c><00:13:47.559><c> has</c>

00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:48.340
raised<00:13:48.000><c> him.</c>

00:13:48.340 --> 00:13:49.980
That<00:13:48.500><c> is</c><00:13:48.620><c> Jesus</c><00:13:48.860><c> from</c><00:13:49.080><c> the</c><00:13:49.220><c> dead.</c>

00:13:50.220 --> 00:13:51.860
So<00:13:50.399><c> now</c><00:13:50.620><c> just</c><00:13:50.820><c> as</c><00:13:51.019><c> a</c><00:13:51.139><c> little</c><00:13:51.259><c> explanation.</c>

00:13:51.860 --> 00:13:55.600
And<00:13:51.860><c> now</c><00:13:52.019><c> it</c><00:13:52.120><c> says,</c><00:13:52.600><c> and</c><00:13:52.600><c> you,</c><00:13:53.860><c> that's</c><00:13:54.080><c> all</c><00:13:54.259><c> of</c><00:13:54.440><c> you,</c><00:13:55.259><c> once</c><00:13:55.460><c> you</c>

00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:57.139
have<00:13:55.700><c> been</c><00:13:55.980><c> baptized.</c>

00:13:57.679 --> 00:13:59.559
Being<00:13:57.940><c> dead</c><00:13:58.259><c> in</c><00:13:58.480><c> your</c><00:13:58.700><c> sins.</c>

00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:03.159
And<00:14:00.440><c> the</c><00:14:00.659><c> uncircumcision</c><00:14:01.379><c> of</c><00:14:01.559><c> your</c><00:14:01.779><c> flesh</c><00:14:02.240><c> has</c><00:14:02.600><c> he</c><00:14:02.919><c> quickened.</c>

00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:05.039
What<00:14:03.279><c> does</c><00:14:03.460><c> the</c><00:14:03.539><c> word</c><00:14:03.679><c> quickened</c><00:14:04.059><c> mean?</c>

00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:09.240
Revitalized,<00:14:08.080><c> made</c><00:14:08.279><c> alive.</c>

00:14:10.179 --> 00:14:11.220
Revitalized,<00:14:10.860><c> made</c><00:14:10.980><c> alive.</c>

00:14:11.539 --> 00:14:13.779
He's<00:14:11.820><c> quickened</c><00:14:12.139><c> together</c><00:14:12.480><c> with</c><00:14:12.679><c> him,</c><00:14:12.940><c> having</c><00:14:13.200><c> forgiven</c><00:14:13.500><c> all</c>

00:14:13.779 --> 00:14:15.320
trespasses<00:14:14.299><c> and</c><00:14:14.519><c> sins.</c>

00:14:15.340 --> 00:14:19.039
Blotting<00:14:15.659><c> out</c><00:14:15.879><c> the</c><00:14:16.600><c> handwriting</c><00:14:17.000><c> of</c><00:14:17.320><c> ordinances</c><00:14:18.000><c> that</c><00:14:18.539><c> was</c>

00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:19.759
against<00:14:19.399><c> us.</c>

00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:21.159
Which<00:14:20.279><c> was</c><00:14:20.519><c> contrary</c><00:14:20.799><c> to</c><00:14:21.039><c> us.</c>

00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:23.919
And<00:14:21.299><c> he</c><00:14:21.379><c> took</c><00:14:21.539><c> it</c><00:14:21.759><c> out</c><00:14:21.899><c> of</c><00:14:21.980><c> the</c><00:14:22.080><c> way</c><00:14:22.179><c> by</c><00:14:22.399><c> nailing</c><00:14:22.720><c> it</c><00:14:23.159><c> to</c><00:14:23.320><c> his</c><00:14:23.580><c> cross.</c>

00:14:24.340 --> 00:14:27.080
Alright,<00:14:24.480><c> so</c><00:14:24.639><c> we</c><00:14:24.720><c> can</c><00:14:24.919><c> see</c><00:14:25.080><c> then,</c><00:14:25.399><c> we've</c><00:14:25.639><c> looked</c><00:14:25.779><c> at</c><00:14:26.279><c> a</c><00:14:26.659><c> covenant</c><00:14:26.899><c> that</c>

00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.100
was<00:14:27.340><c> established</c><00:14:27.700><c> in</c><00:14:27.860><c> the</c><00:14:27.980><c> Old</c><00:14:28.139><c> Testament.</c>

00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:30.960
Alright.

00:14:31.139 --> 00:14:34.059
This<00:14:31.259><c> is</c><00:14:31.379><c> the</c><00:14:31.519><c> covenant</c><00:14:31.820><c> of</c><00:14:32.779><c> circumcision.</c>

00:14:34.440 --> 00:14:36.700
And<00:14:34.860><c> you're</c><00:14:35.240><c> going</c><00:14:35.259><c> to</c><00:14:35.360><c> tell</c><00:14:35.500><c> me</c><00:14:35.860><c> where</c><00:14:36.159><c> that</c><00:14:36.320><c> was</c><00:14:36.519><c> found.</c>

00:14:36.860 --> 00:14:38.580

00:19:40.660 --> 00:19:43.779

00:19:43.779 --> 00:19:47.400
is<00:19:44.119><c> because</c><00:19:44.440><c> they</c><00:19:44.599><c> will</c><00:19:44.900><c> turn</c><00:19:45.200><c> away</c><00:19:45.559><c> thy</c><00:19:45.799><c> son</c><00:19:46.059><c> from</c><00:19:46.380><c> following</c><00:19:46.660><c> me.</c>

00:19:47.740 --> 00:19:51.160
As<00:19:47.900><c> I</c><00:19:48.099><c> mentioned</c><00:19:48.259><c> before,</c><00:19:48.660><c> it's</c><00:19:48.740><c> always</c><00:19:49.059><c> easier</c><00:19:49.440><c> to</c><00:19:49.640><c> go</c><00:19:49.859><c> downhill</c><00:19:50.140><c> than</c><00:19:50.380><c> uphill.</c>

00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:54.500
And<00:19:51.420><c> what</c><00:19:51.599><c> we</c><00:19:51.900><c> are</c><00:19:52.059><c> invited</c><00:19:52.359><c> to</c><00:19:52.599><c> do</c><00:19:52.720><c> when</c><00:19:52.900><c> we</c><00:19:53.119><c> become</c><00:19:53.319><c> disciples,</c>

00:19:55.079 --> 00:19:56.740
when<00:19:55.180><c> you</c><00:19:55.359><c> are</c><00:19:55.480><c> baptized</c><00:19:55.799><c> into</c><00:19:56.000><c> the</c><00:19:56.119><c> name</c><00:19:56.240><c> of</c><00:19:56.440><c> Christ,</c>

00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:00.700
It's<00:19:59.599><c> an</c><00:19:59.859><c> uphill</c><00:20:00.359><c> battle.</c>

00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:02.299
It's<00:20:01.000><c> not</c><00:20:01.240><c> an</c><00:20:01.460><c> easy</c><00:20:01.960><c> thing.</c>

00:20:02.779 --> 00:20:03.660
It's<00:20:02.980><c> an</c><00:20:03.119><c> uphill</c><00:20:03.440><c> battle.</c>

00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:06.539
It's<00:20:04.140><c> like</c><00:20:04.380><c> starting</c><00:20:04.819><c> a</c><00:20:05.099><c> comrades</c><00:20:05.500><c> marathon.</c>

00:20:08.180 --> 00:20:11.279

00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:14.400
But<00:20:12.140><c> it</c><00:20:12.359><c> doesn't</c><00:20:12.500><c> matter</c><00:20:12.640><c> how</c><00:20:12.900><c> long</c><00:20:13.039><c> you</c><00:20:13.279><c> sit</c><00:20:13.539><c> in</c><00:20:13.720><c> the</c><00:20:13.900><c> grandstands,</c>

00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:24.500
All<00:20:24.079><c> right?</c>

00:20:24.920 --> 00:20:26.299
So<00:20:25.099><c> you</c><00:20:25.240><c> can</c><00:20:25.720><c> criticize.</c>

00:20:26.599 --> 00:20:28.900

00:20:29.859 --> 00:20:32.380

00:24:18.660 --> 00:24:19.779
Israel<00:24:18.940><c> was</c><00:24:19.160><c> in</c><00:24:19.380><c> isolation.</c>

00:24:20.099 --> 00:24:22.619

00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:28.519
When<00:24:25.200><c> I</c><00:24:25.460><c> worked</c><00:24:25.640><c> in</c><00:24:25.779><c> Israel,</c><00:24:26.299><c> we</c><00:24:26.400><c> used</c><00:24:26.700><c> to</c><00:24:27.099><c> do</c><00:24:27.240><c> all</c><00:24:27.480><c> the</c><00:24:27.599><c> printed</c><00:24:27.839><c> circuit</c><00:24:28.140><c> boards</c>

00:24:37.420 --> 00:24:39.440
And<00:24:37.680><c> we</c><00:24:37.799><c> used</c><00:24:37.960><c> to</c><00:24:38.099><c> redesign</c><00:24:38.420><c> those</c><00:24:38.700><c> printed</c><00:24:38.920><c> circuit</c><00:24:39.200><c> boards</c>

00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:41.400
so<00:24:39.640><c> that</c><00:24:39.720><c> they</c><00:24:39.819><c> could</c><00:24:39.920><c> go</c><00:24:40.160><c> faster</c><00:24:40.460><c> and</c><00:24:40.759><c> bank</c><00:24:40.920><c> and</c><00:24:41.119><c> do</c><00:24:41.240><c> all</c>

00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:44.420
That's<00:24:42.440><c> what</c><00:24:42.539><c> I</c><00:24:42.680><c> used</c><00:24:42.799><c> to</c><00:24:42.920><c> do</c><00:24:43.000><c> when</c><00:24:43.099><c> I</c><00:24:43.220><c> was</c><00:24:43.319><c> living</c><00:24:43.440><c> in</c><00:24:43.599><c> Israel.</c>

00:24:45.099 --> 00:24:47.380
So<00:24:45.579><c> we</c><00:24:46.059><c> had</c><00:24:46.220><c> this</c><00:24:46.440><c> great</c><00:24:46.759><c> relationship.</c>

00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:37.660
And<00:29:31.019><c> so</c><00:29:31.380><c> we</c><00:29:32.079><c> then</c><00:29:32.740><c> become</c><00:29:33.279><c> the</c><00:29:33.779><c> wife</c><00:29:34.460><c>-to</c><00:29:35.259><c>-be</c><00:29:36.119><c> of</c><00:29:37.400><c> the</c><00:29:37.519><c> Lord</c>

It's<00:30:00.299><c> very</c><00:30:00.599><c> serious</c><00:30:00.920><c> because</c><00:30:01.140><c> we</c><00:30:01.279><c> need</c><00:30:01.420><c> to</c><00:30:01.559><c> get</c><00:30:01.680><c> this</c><00:30:01.880><c> part</c><00:30:02.039><c> of</c>

our<00:30:02.359><c> lives</c><00:30:02.660><c> right.</c>

00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:06.019
Okay.

00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:11.880
Now,<00:30:07.960><c> we</c><00:30:08.220><c> just</c><00:30:08.400><c> wanted</c><00:30:08.539><c> to</c><00:30:08.759><c> talk</c><00:30:08.940><c> about</c><00:30:09.299><c> the</c><00:30:09.500><c> fact</c><00:30:09.700><c> that</c><00:30:10.960><c> marriage</c><00:30:11.500><c> is</c><00:30:11.740><c> a</c>

00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:13.160
serious<00:30:12.099><c> business.</c>

00:30:13.619 --> 00:30:20.460
And<00:30:14.059><c> we've</c><00:30:14.500><c> looked</c><00:30:14.660><c> at</c><00:30:17.160><c> this</c><00:30:17.960><c> first</c><00:30:18.180><c> little</c><00:30:18.420><c> section</c><00:30:18.700><c> over</c><00:30:18.960><c> here.</c>

00:30:27.299 --> 00:30:28.079
It's<00:30:27.420><c> not</c><00:30:27.579><c> just</c><00:30:27.880><c> that.</c>

00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:30.359

00:30:30.779 --> 00:30:32.220
It's<00:30:31.220><c> a</c><00:30:31.420><c> serious</c><00:30:31.779><c> business.</c>

00:30:32.359 --> 00:30:35.180
And<00:30:32.500><c> if</c><00:30:32.599><c> you</c><00:30:32.700><c> don't</c><00:30:32.859><c> take</c><00:30:33.079><c> marriage</c><00:30:33.359><c> seriously,</c><00:30:33.819><c> then,</c><00:30:34.039><c> of</c><00:30:34.160><c> course,</c><00:30:34.700><c> you're</c><00:30:34.920><c> going</c><00:30:35.019><c> to</c>

00:30:36.180 --> 00:30:39.960
because<00:30:36.640><c> we</c><00:30:36.880><c> have</c><00:30:37.059><c> to</c><00:30:37.759><c> make</c><00:30:38.440><c> sure</c><00:30:38.779><c> that</c><00:30:39.079><c> we</c><00:30:39.319><c> understand</c><00:30:39.660><c> the</c>

seriousness<00:30:40.240><c> of</c><00:30:40.519><c> marriage.</c>

00:30:40.859 --> 00:30:44.299
We<00:30:41.779><c> see</c><00:30:41.900><c> that</c><00:30:42.099><c> that</c><00:30:42.319><c> circumcision</c><00:30:42.759><c> was</c><00:30:43.059><c> a</c><00:30:43.200><c> sign</c><00:30:43.299><c> of</c><00:30:43.440><c> the</c><00:30:43.599><c> covenant</c><00:30:43.779><c> between</c><00:30:44.099><c> God</c>

00:30:50.779 --> 00:30:53.500
And<00:30:51.079><c> we</c><00:30:51.259><c> see</c><00:30:51.480><c> that</c><00:30:51.779><c> marriage</c><00:30:52.079><c> is</c><00:30:52.339><c> a</c><00:30:52.480><c> sign</c><00:30:52.579><c> of</c><00:30:52.740><c> the</c><00:30:53.019><c> covenant</c>

00:30:58.460 --> 00:31:03.619
And<00:30:58.759><c> we</c><00:30:58.940><c> also</c><00:30:59.140><c> just</c><00:30:59.420><c> had</c><00:30:59.579><c> a</c><00:30:59.720><c> look</c><00:31:00.160><c> at</c><00:31:00.559><c> the</c><00:31:00.759><c> fact</c><00:31:00.960><c> that</c><00:31:02.440><c> for</c><00:31:03.400><c> the</c>

of<00:31:08.740><c> baptism.</c>

00:31:09.140 --> 00:31:11.160
Now,<00:31:10.039><c> let's</c><00:31:10.240><c> just</c><00:31:10.380><c> think</c><00:31:10.539><c> about</c><00:31:10.779><c> this.</c>

00:31:11.359 --> 00:31:15.240

00:31:16.539 --> 00:31:17.680
Is<00:31:16.619><c> that</c><00:31:16.740><c> right?</c>

Why<00:31:28.660><c> would</c><00:31:28.819><c> you</c><00:31:28.940><c> want</c><00:31:29.039><c> to</c><00:31:29.160><c> be</c><00:31:29.319><c> baptized?</c>

00:31:29.859 --> 00:31:31.680
If<00:31:29.960><c> you're</c><00:31:30.500><c> going</c><00:31:30.619><c> to</c><00:31:30.700><c> get</c><00:31:30.859><c> baptized,</c><00:31:31.200><c> why</c><00:31:31.380><c> would</c><00:31:31.500><c> you</c><00:31:31.599><c> want</c>

And<00:37:31.699><c> that's</c><00:37:31.860><c> not</c><00:37:32.079><c> what</c><00:37:32.239><c> the</c><00:37:32.420><c> people</c><00:37:32.599><c> of</c><00:37:32.800><c> God</c><00:37:32.980><c> are</c><00:37:33.219><c> all</c><00:37:33.420><c> about.</c>

00:37:33.960 --> 00:37:36.960
The<00:37:34.119><c> people</c><00:37:34.300><c> of</c><00:37:34.480><c> God</c><00:37:34.579><c> are</c><00:37:34.719><c> all</c><00:37:34.940><c> about</c><00:37:35.420><c> hanging</c><00:37:35.880><c> on</c><00:37:36.239><c> and</c><00:37:36.639><c> keep</c>

00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:40.179
because<00:37:38.599><c> we're</c><00:37:39.519><c> hanging</c><00:37:39.519><c> on</c><00:37:39.800><c> to</c><00:37:39.900><c> the</c><00:37:40.059><c> truth,</c>

00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:46.739
It's<00:37:43.380><c> not</c><00:37:43.579><c> just</c><00:37:43.960><c> we</c><00:37:44.719><c> haven't</c><00:37:45.059><c> joined</c><00:37:45.420><c> the</c><00:37:45.599><c> golf</c><00:37:45.860><c> club</c><00:37:46.019><c> or</c><00:37:46.460><c> the</c>

You<00:37:47.800><c> know,</c><00:37:47.960><c> the</c><00:37:48.039><c> best</c><00:37:48.300><c> of</c><00:37:48.440><c> this</c><00:37:48.559><c> and</c><00:37:48.679><c> the</c><00:37:48.780><c> best</c><00:37:48.960><c> of</c><00:37:49.059><c> this.</c>

00:37:49.320 --> 00:37:50.860
We're<00:37:49.599><c> a</c><00:37:49.719><c> whole</c><00:37:49.860><c> bunch</c><00:37:50.079><c> of</c><00:37:50.260><c> useless</c><00:37:50.519><c> people.</c>

00:37:50.920 --> 00:37:52.420
That's<00:37:51.119><c> why</c><00:37:51.239><c> God</c><00:37:51.420><c> chose</c><00:37:51.719><c> us.</c>

00:37:52.820 --> 00:37:54.260
We're<00:37:53.260><c> a</c><00:37:53.260><c> whole</c><00:37:53.480><c> bunch</c><00:37:53.719><c> of</c><00:37:53.920><c> cripples.</c>

00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:55.900
That's<00:37:54.519><c> why</c><00:37:54.639><c> God</c><00:37:54.860><c> chose</c><00:37:55.139><c> us.</c>

00:37:56.099 --> 00:37:59.960
He<00:37:56.139><c> didn't</c><00:37:57.019><c> choose</c><00:37:57.320><c> us</c><00:37:57.559><c> because</c><00:37:57.800><c> we</c><00:37:58.019><c> were</c><00:37:58.340><c> great</c><00:37:58.820><c> and</c><00:37:59.460><c> bright</c>

00:37:59.960 --> 00:38:01.340

00:38:04.119 --> 00:38:05.619
just<00:38:04.679><c> plain,</c>

00:38:05.619 --> 00:38:08.480
because<00:38:06.139><c> Israel</c><00:38:06.619><c> was</c><00:38:06.900><c> small,</c><00:38:07.300><c> because</c><00:38:07.519><c> she</c><00:38:07.679><c> was</c><00:38:07.900><c> the</c><00:38:08.179><c> fewest</c>

00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:09.400
of<00:38:08.639><c> all</c><00:38:08.940><c> the</c><00:38:09.079><c> nations</c>

00:38:09.400 --> 00:38:11.099
and<00:38:09.760><c> because</c><00:38:10.099><c> God</c><00:38:10.400><c> loved</c><00:38:10.800><c> her.</c>

00:38:11.340 --> 00:38:13.099
That's<00:38:11.599><c> why</c><00:38:11.760><c> he</c><00:38:11.880><c> chose</c><00:38:12.199><c> us.</c>

00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:15.960
God<00:38:13.599><c> doesn't</c><00:38:13.900><c> call</c><00:38:14.320><c> the</c><00:38:14.980><c> wise.</c>

00:38:16.380 --> 00:38:19.539
He<00:38:16.900><c> calls</c><00:38:17.099><c> the</c><00:38:17.300><c> wisdom</c><00:38:17.500><c> of</c><00:38:17.659><c> this</c><00:38:17.860><c> world</c><00:38:18.079><c> foolishness.</c>

00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:21.599
He<00:38:19.820><c> calls</c><00:38:20.179><c> the</c><00:38:20.400><c> simple</c><00:38:20.639><c> ones.</c>

00:38:21.699 --> 00:38:23.719
And<00:38:21.840><c> we</c><00:38:22.039><c> need</c><00:38:22.260><c> to</c><00:38:22.440><c> help</c><00:38:22.599><c> each</c><00:38:22.860><c> other.</c>

00:38:24.260 --> 00:38:26.679
All<00:38:24.380><c> right,</c><00:38:24.559><c> so</c><00:38:25.099><c> the</c><00:38:25.559><c> last</c><00:38:25.760><c> little</c><00:38:25.920><c> scripture</c><00:38:26.239><c> that</c><00:38:26.380><c> I'm</c><00:38:26.519><c> going</c><00:38:26.579><c> to</c>

the<00:38:33.260><c> way,</c>

00:38:33.679 --> 00:38:38.699
and<00:38:34.219><c> that</c><00:38:34.380><c> is</c><00:38:34.719><c> dealing</c><00:38:35.039><c> with</c><00:38:35.420><c> sex</c><00:38:35.920><c> in</c><00:38:36.679><c> a</c><00:38:36.800><c> marriage</c><00:38:37.199><c> from</c><00:38:37.860><c> God's</c><00:38:38.300><c> perspective</c>

00:38:38.699 --> 00:38:41.840
and<00:38:39.019><c> the</c><00:38:39.139><c> lessons</c><00:38:39.420><c> that</c><00:38:39.639><c> we</c><00:38:39.739><c> need</c><00:38:39.940><c> to</c><00:38:41.340><c> learn.</c>

00:38:41.880 --> 00:38:45.980
All<00:38:41.920><c> right,</c><00:38:42.539><c> back</c><00:38:42.739><c> in</c><00:38:43.119><c> Ephesians</c><00:38:43.780><c> 5</c><00:38:44.280><c> and</c><00:38:44.440><c> verse</c><00:38:44.659><c> 31.</c>

00:38:55.800 --> 00:38:57.940
Now<00:38:55.940><c> we</c><00:38:56.079><c> understand</c><00:38:56.519><c> that</c><00:38:56.679><c> from</c><00:38:56.820><c> a</c><00:38:56.940><c> natural</c><00:38:57.159><c> point</c><00:38:57.340><c> of</c><00:38:57.440><c> view</c><00:38:57.519><c> between</c><00:38:57.800><c> a</c>

00:38:59.019 --> 00:39:01.039
But<00:38:59.199><c> what</c><00:38:59.460><c> Paul</c><00:38:59.659><c> is</c><00:38:59.820><c> saying</c><00:39:00.019><c> is</c><00:39:00.199><c> that</c><00:39:00.340><c> I'm</c><00:39:00.420><c> not</c><00:39:00.599><c> talking</c><00:39:00.860><c> about</c>

a<00:39:01.199><c> husband</c><00:39:01.380><c> and</c><00:39:01.599><c> wife.</c>

00:39:02.699 --> 00:39:06.719
I'm<00:39:03.300><c> talking</c><00:39:03.519><c> about</c><00:39:03.760><c> Christ</c><00:39:04.239><c> and</c><00:39:04.480><c> the</c><00:39:04.659><c> Ecclesia.</c>

00:39:07.699 --> 00:39:13.500
And<00:39:07.860><c> so</c><00:39:08.559><c> understanding</c><00:39:09.500><c> covenants,</c><00:39:11.480><c> the</c><00:39:11.659><c> covenant</c><00:39:11.940><c> of</c><00:39:12.340><c> circumcision,</c>

00:39:14.420 --> 00:39:18.159
the<00:39:14.599><c> covenant</c><00:39:14.900><c> of</c><00:39:15.519><c> baptism,</c><00:39:16.780><c> and</c><00:39:16.960><c> the</c><00:39:17.179><c> covenant</c><00:39:17.460><c> of</c><00:39:17.840><c> marriage.</c>

00:39:18.219 --> 00:39:22.699
They<00:39:18.400><c> are</c><00:39:18.579><c> all</c><00:39:18.840><c> interlinked</c><00:39:20.059><c> and</c><00:39:20.139><c> they</c><00:39:20.300><c> are</c><00:39:20.440><c> vital</c><00:39:20.699><c> for</c><00:39:20.920><c> our</c><00:39:21.099><c> survival</c><00:39:21.400><c> as</c><00:39:21.599><c> a</c><00:39:21.780><c> community.</c>

And<00:39:23.019><c> with</c><00:39:23.199><c> that,</c><00:39:24.260><c> I'll</c><00:39:25.699><c> basically</c><00:39:26.039><c> be</c><00:39:26.300><c> back.</c>

00:39:29.679 --> 00:39:32.099
Almost<00:39:30.000><c> to</c><00:39:30.179><c> the</c><00:39:30.340><c> T.</c><00:39:30.539><c> You've</c><00:39:30.659><c> got</c><00:39:30.739><c> five</c><00:39:30.940><c> minutes</c><00:39:31.099><c> extra.</c>
