00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:26.879
The<00:01:22.859><c> idea</c><00:01:23.200><c> is,</c><00:01:23.719><c> just</c><00:01:24.000><c> in</c><00:01:24.159><c> case</c><00:01:24.620><c> I</c><00:01:25.519><c> don't</c><00:01:25.700><c> get</c><00:01:25.900><c> it</c><00:01:26.140><c> across</c><00:01:26.359><c> later,</c><00:01:26.700><c> I'll</c>

00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:32.980
The<00:01:28.099><c> idea</c><00:01:28.519><c> is</c><00:01:29.079><c> that</c><00:01:29.400><c> if</c><00:01:29.560><c> we</c><00:01:29.760><c> are</c><00:01:29.920><c> praying,</c><00:01:31.019><c> reading,</c><00:01:31.859><c> and</c><00:01:32.120><c> serving</c><00:01:32.500><c> the</c>

00:01:40.099 --> 00:01:43.859

Apostle<00:01:49.680><c> Paul</c><00:01:50.000><c> is</c><00:01:50.560><c> a</c><00:01:50.719><c> great</c><00:01:50.859><c> example</c><00:01:51.299><c> of</c><00:01:51.459><c> this.</c>

00:01:52.219 --> 00:01:54.799
We<00:01:52.379><c> cannot</c><00:01:52.680><c> think</c><00:01:52.939><c> of</c><00:01:53.060><c> a</c><00:01:53.159><c> more</c><00:01:53.459><c> zealous</c><00:01:53.780><c> servant</c><00:01:54.140><c> to</c><00:01:54.400><c> our</c><00:01:54.579><c> Lord</c>

00:01:56.599 --> 00:02:00.420
He<00:01:56.799><c> ate,</c><00:01:57.239><c> drank,</c><00:01:57.620><c> and</c><00:01:57.939><c> breathed</c><00:01:58.920><c> service</c><00:01:59.359><c> to</c><00:01:59.579><c> God</c><00:01:59.939><c> and</c><00:02:00.159><c> his</c>

00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:04.060
conversion.

00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:07.959
Now<00:02:05.900><c> Paul</c><00:02:06.079><c> was</c><00:02:06.340><c> not</c><00:02:06.579><c> a</c><00:02:06.760><c> sinless</c><00:02:07.060><c> man.</c>

00:02:08.099 --> 00:02:12.039
I'm<00:02:08.699><c> sure</c><00:02:08.939><c> he</c><00:02:09.080><c> made</c><00:02:09.319><c> mistakes,</c><00:02:10.319><c> and</c><00:02:10.719><c> he</c><00:02:10.860><c> even</c><00:02:11.099><c> offended</c><00:02:11.400><c> people</c><00:02:11.800><c> at</c>

00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:04.019
And<00:11:02.120><c> he</c><00:11:02.440><c> walked</c><00:11:02.639><c> out</c><00:11:02.840><c> of</c><00:11:02.899><c> there</c><00:11:03.059><c> kind</c><00:11:03.279><c> of,</c><00:11:03.580><c> well,</c><00:11:03.799><c> I</c><00:11:03.879><c> don't</c><00:11:03.960><c> know</c><00:11:03.960><c> if</c>

00:11:04.019 --> 00:11:05.039
he<00:11:04.139><c> was</c><00:11:04.240><c> shaking</c><00:11:04.539><c> his</c><00:11:04.779><c> head,</c><00:11:04.980><c> but</c>

00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:08.519
some<00:11:05.220><c> of</c><00:11:05.279><c> the</c><00:11:05.320><c> rest</c><00:11:05.539><c> of</c><00:11:05.620><c> us</c><00:11:05.779><c> are</c><00:11:05.919><c> saying,</c><00:11:06.299><c> these</c><00:11:06.620><c> are</c><00:11:06.860><c> big</c><00:11:07.120><c> responsibilities,</c><00:11:08.399><c> and</c>

00:11:08.519 --> 00:11:08.919
they're<00:11:08.700><c> all</c>

00:11:08.919 --> 00:11:10.059
coming<00:11:09.100><c> up</c><00:11:09.320><c> pretty</c><00:11:09.600><c> quickly,</c><00:11:10.000><c> too.</c>

00:11:10.059 --> 00:11:13.620
One<00:11:10.200><c> was</c><00:11:10.379><c> Bible</c><00:11:10.679><c> school</c><00:11:10.919><c> chairman,</c><00:11:11.399><c> for</c><00:11:12.179><c> instance,</c><00:11:12.820><c> and</c><00:11:13.299><c> that</c>

00:11:13.620 --> 00:11:15.200

00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:20.480
So<00:11:16.159><c> we</c><00:11:16.480><c> had</c><00:11:16.860><c> some</c><00:11:17.039><c> talks</c><00:11:17.320><c> after</c><00:11:17.620><c> that</c><00:11:17.899><c> and</c><00:11:19.120><c> found</c><00:11:19.460><c> out</c><00:11:19.759><c> that</c><00:11:20.019><c> he</c>

00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:21.500
probably<00:11:20.820><c> should</c><00:11:21.000><c> balance</c><00:11:21.259><c> it</c><00:11:21.399><c> out</c>

00:11:21.500 --> 00:11:24.620

00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:27.899
because<00:11:26.379><c> of</c><00:11:26.559><c> some</c><00:11:26.700><c> other</c><00:11:26.840><c> things</c><00:11:27.039><c> that</c><00:11:27.179><c> he</c><00:11:27.299><c> would</c><00:11:27.440><c> have</c><00:11:27.580><c> to</c><00:11:27.720><c> be</c>

00:11:27.899 --> 00:11:29.879

00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:33.639
And<00:11:31.620><c> so</c><00:11:31.720><c> we</c><00:11:31.840><c> just</c><00:11:32.059><c> had</c><00:11:32.220><c> a</c><00:11:32.320><c> discussion</c><00:11:32.759><c> about</c><00:11:33.019><c> that</c><00:11:33.279><c> and</c><00:11:33.419><c> ended</c>

00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:35.399
