00:16:18.220 --> 00:16:19.299

No<00:16:41.600><c> traffic.</c>

00:16:50.919 --> 00:16:52.379
It's<00:16:51.399><c> so</c><00:16:51.759><c> common</c><00:16:52.019><c> nowadays.</c>

00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:55.360
But<00:16:52.620><c> the</c><00:16:52.899><c> point</c><00:16:53.159><c> we're</c><00:16:53.419><c> making</c><00:16:53.700><c> is</c><00:16:54.059><c> that</c><00:16:54.379><c> we</c><00:16:54.580><c> have</c><00:16:54.799><c> to</c><00:16:54.960><c> realize</c>

00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:57.620
these<00:16:55.659><c> things</c><00:16:55.879><c> that</c><00:16:56.039><c> are</c><00:16:56.320><c> common</c><00:16:56.639><c> are</c><00:16:57.080><c> sinful</c>

00:16:57.620 --> 00:16:59.960

00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:03.080
And<00:17:02.080><c> so</c><00:17:02.159><c> they</c><00:17:02.320><c> locked</c><00:17:02.500><c> him</c><00:17:02.679><c> up</c><00:17:02.820><c> and</c><00:17:03.019><c> they,</c>

and<00:17:03.360><c> the</c><00:17:03.480><c> Lord</c><00:17:03.679><c> spake</c><00:17:04.059><c> unto</c><00:17:04.240><c> Moses</c><00:17:04.619><c> and</c><00:17:04.859><c> said,</c>

00:17:10.299 --> 00:17:12.539
and<00:17:10.619><c> let</c><00:17:10.779><c> all</c><00:17:10.900><c> the</c><00:17:11.099><c> congregation</c><00:17:11.519><c> stone</c><00:17:11.799><c> him</c><00:17:11.980><c> with</c><00:17:12.140><c> stones.</c>

00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:14.960
He<00:17:13.299><c> never</c><00:17:13.680><c> swore</c><00:17:13.900><c> again.</c>

00:17:16.980 --> 00:17:19.440
That's<00:17:17.500><c> God's</c><00:17:17.980><c> opinion</c><00:17:18.420><c> of</c><00:17:18.680><c> swearing.</c>

00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:21.599
It<00:17:20.779><c> hasn't</c><00:17:21.119><c> changed.</c>

00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:23.599
It's<00:17:21.900><c> still</c><00:17:22.019><c> his</c><00:17:22.200><c> opinion</c><00:17:22.519><c> of</c><00:17:22.740><c> swearing.</c>

00:17:23.660 --> 00:17:25.400
He<00:17:23.980><c> was</c><00:17:24.160><c> put</c><00:17:24.359><c> to</c><00:17:24.559><c> death.</c>

00:17:25.539 --> 00:17:28.140
Now<00:17:25.740><c> the</c><00:17:25.759><c> question</c><00:17:26.039><c> is,</c><00:17:26.359><c> we</c><00:17:26.640><c> have</c><00:17:26.900><c> to</c><00:17:27.299><c> try</c><00:17:27.579><c> to</c><00:17:27.700><c> get</c><00:17:27.799><c> the</c><00:17:27.980><c> mind</c>

of<00:17:28.279><c> God</c>

00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:30.859
and<00:17:28.579><c> we've</c><00:17:28.819><c> gotten</c><00:17:28.920><c> it</c><00:17:29.059><c> this</c><00:17:29.299><c> week,</c><00:17:30.099><c> but</c><00:17:30.259><c> when</c><00:17:30.359><c> we</c><00:17:30.440><c> go</c><00:17:30.599><c> home,</c>

00:17:30.859 --> 00:17:34.039
we're<00:17:31.039><c> going</c><00:17:31.119><c> to</c><00:17:31.160><c> go</c><00:17:31.440><c> back</c><00:17:31.799><c> to</c><00:17:32.000><c> the</c><00:17:32.180><c> things</c><00:17:32.420><c> which</c><00:17:32.940><c> we're</c><00:17:33.200><c> used</c><00:17:33.480><c> to</c>

00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:37.220
and<00:17:34.380><c> maybe</c><00:17:35.420><c> some</c><00:17:35.740><c> of</c><00:17:35.839><c> these</c><00:17:35.940><c> things</c><00:17:36.140><c> we</c><00:17:36.339><c> got</c><00:17:36.539><c> used</c><00:17:36.880><c> to</c>

00:17:37.220 --> 00:17:40.900
didn't<00:17:37.480><c> seem</c><00:17:37.720><c> so</c><00:17:38.079><c> bad</c><00:17:38.599><c> because</c><00:17:39.099><c> we</c><00:17:39.279><c> were</c><00:17:39.400><c> so</c><00:17:39.599><c> used</c><00:17:39.779><c> to</c><00:17:39.960><c> them.</c>

00:17:41.019 --> 00:17:45.460
But<00:17:41.440><c> we</c><00:17:41.700><c> have</c><00:17:41.880><c> to</c><00:17:42.700><c> realize</c><00:17:43.220><c> that</c><00:17:43.819><c> God</c><00:17:44.299><c> abhors.</c>

00:17:45.640 --> 00:17:47.180
These<00:17:46.160><c> things.</c>

00:17:47.660 --> 00:17:50.660
And<00:17:47.740><c> we</c><00:17:47.900><c> better</c><00:17:48.119><c> abhor</c><00:17:48.519><c> what</c><00:17:48.839><c> he</c><00:17:49.099><c> abhors</c><00:17:49.440><c> and</c><00:17:49.619><c> love</c><00:17:49.819><c> what</c><00:17:50.000><c> he</c><00:17:50.220><c> loves</c>

00:17:50.660 --> 00:17:53.500
and<00:17:51.299><c> not</c><00:17:51.539><c> the</c><00:17:51.640><c> way</c><00:17:51.819><c> the</c><00:17:51.980><c> world</c><00:17:52.180><c> has</c><00:17:52.480><c> it.</c>

00:17:53.819 --> 00:17:55.759
So<00:17:54.019><c> God</c><00:17:54.180><c> has</c><00:17:54.380><c> not</c><00:17:54.579><c> changed.</c>

00:17:55.980 --> 00:18:01.859
And<00:17:56.099><c> so</c><00:17:56.539><c> we</c><00:17:56.900><c> must</c><00:17:58.000><c> just</c><00:17:58.619><c> resolve</c><00:17:59.279><c> that</c><00:18:00.059><c> we</c><00:18:00.259><c> will</c><00:18:01.000><c> go</c><00:18:01.420><c> back</c>

00:18:01.859 --> 00:18:03.759

00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:06.339
because<00:18:04.019><c> we're</c><00:18:04.299><c> expecting</c><00:18:04.599><c> Jesus</c><00:18:04.980><c> to</c><00:18:05.160><c> come</c><00:18:05.240><c> any</c><00:18:05.480><c> minute.</c>

00:18:07.119 --> 00:18:08.339
Now<00:18:07.240><c> Nehemiah</c><00:18:07.660><c> had</c><00:18:07.880><c> authority</c>

00:18:08.339 --> 00:18:09.599

00:18:09.619 --> 00:18:10.859
he's<00:18:09.839><c> going</c><00:18:09.900><c> to</c><00:18:10.000><c> have</c><00:18:10.140><c> supreme</c><00:18:10.460><c> authority.</c>

The<00:20:29.039><c> things</c><00:20:29.299><c> of</c><00:20:29.460><c> the</c><00:20:29.599><c> world</c><00:20:29.740><c> didn't</c><00:20:29.940><c> seem</c><00:20:30.200><c> so</c><00:20:30.519><c> bad.</c>

00:20:30.740 --> 00:20:34.039
Thus<00:20:30.900><c> I</c><00:20:31.220><c> cleansed</c><00:20:31.579><c> them,</c><00:20:31.759><c> verse</c><00:20:32.039><c> 30,</c><00:20:32.940><c> from</c><00:20:33.140><c> all</c><00:20:33.579><c> strangers</c>

00:20:42.539 --> 00:20:46.500
Are<00:20:42.799><c> we</c><00:20:42.940><c> only</c><00:20:43.279><c> good</c><00:20:43.759><c> when</c><00:20:44.759><c> Nehemiah</c><00:20:45.279><c> is</c><00:20:45.460><c> around?</c>

00:20:46.880 --> 00:20:50.619
Do<00:20:47.039><c> we</c><00:20:47.119><c> only</c><00:20:47.380><c> behave</c><00:20:47.640><c> ourselves</c><00:20:48.339><c> at</c><00:20:49.220><c> Bible</c><00:20:49.640><c> school?</c>

00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:53.259
I<00:20:52.000><c> can</c><00:20:52.200><c> remember</c><00:20:52.539><c> being</c><00:20:52.819><c> in</c><00:20:53.000><c> school.</c>

00:20:53.259 --> 00:20:55.319
It<00:20:53.299><c> was</c><00:20:53.480><c> so</c><00:20:53.640><c> many</c><00:20:53.799><c> years</c><00:20:54.039><c> ago,</c><00:20:54.240><c> but</c><00:20:54.380><c> I</c><00:20:54.460><c> have</c><00:20:54.640><c> a</c><00:20:54.759><c> good</c><00:20:54.920><c> memory,</c>

and<00:21:00.220><c> the</c><00:21:00.460><c> bedlam</c><00:21:00.660><c> would</c><00:21:00.859><c> break</c><00:21:01.099><c> loose.</c>

00:21:01.480 --> 00:21:03.380
And<00:21:01.559><c> as</c><00:21:01.579><c> soon</c><00:21:01.640><c> as</c><00:21:01.720><c> she</c><00:21:01.819><c> came</c><00:21:01.980><c> back</c><00:21:02.180><c> in,</c><00:21:02.299><c> everybody</c><00:21:02.480><c> sit</c><00:21:02.680><c> down.</c>

00:21:09.259 --> 00:21:10.079
we<00:21:09.279><c> can't</c><00:21:09.480><c> be</c><00:21:09.680><c> that</c><00:21:09.920><c> way.</c>

00:21:10.180 --> 00:21:11.460
We<00:21:10.240><c> can't</c><00:21:10.519><c> just</c><00:21:10.720><c> be</c><00:21:10.839><c> good</c><00:21:11.039><c> at</c><00:21:11.220><c> meeting.</c>

00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:12.640
I<00:21:11.700><c> want</c><00:21:11.839><c> you</c><00:21:11.980><c> to</c><00:21:12.099><c> be</c><00:21:12.240><c> good</c><00:21:12.420><c> at</c><00:21:12.519><c> meeting.</c>

00:21:12.740 --> 00:21:13.960
Don't<00:21:12.900><c> misunderstand</c><00:21:13.400><c> me.</c>

00:21:14.140 --> 00:21:15.160
But<00:21:14.279><c> not</c><00:21:14.559><c> just</c><00:21:14.900><c> then.</c>

00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:16.400
This<00:21:15.539><c> is</c><00:21:15.779><c> a</c><00:21:15.779><c> way</c><00:21:15.980><c> of</c><00:21:16.200><c> life.</c>

00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:18.859
This<00:21:16.880><c> is</c><00:21:17.059><c> the</c><00:21:17.099><c> way</c><00:21:17.220><c> we</c><00:21:17.339><c> are</c><00:21:17.480><c> all</c><00:21:17.700><c> the</c><00:21:17.900><c> time.</c>

00:21:19.180 --> 00:21:21.240
We're<00:21:19.339><c> not</c><00:21:19.519><c> Sunday</c><00:21:19.799><c> Christadelphians.</c>

00:21:21.299 --> 00:21:24.380
Seven<00:21:21.640><c> days</c><00:21:21.920><c> a</c><00:21:22.099><c> week,</c><00:21:22.279><c> 365</c><00:21:22.819><c> days</c><00:21:23.240><c> a</c><00:21:23.420><c> year.</c>

00:21:25.519 --> 00:21:31.420
To<00:21:25.960><c> know</c><00:21:26.400><c> and</c><00:21:27.539><c> not</c><00:21:27.799><c> to</c><00:21:28.059><c> do</c><00:21:29.140><c> is</c><00:21:30.180><c> not</c><00:21:30.420><c> to</c><00:21:30.700><c> know.</c>

00:21:31.819 --> 00:21:35.400
When<00:21:32.259><c> we</c><00:21:32.519><c> know</c><00:21:32.960><c> what</c><00:21:33.119><c> we're</c><00:21:33.359><c> supposed</c><00:21:33.859><c> to</c><00:21:34.160><c> do,</c><00:21:34.500><c> we</c><00:21:34.640><c> have</c><00:21:34.920><c> to</c><00:21:35.140><c> do</c><00:21:35.319><c> it.</c>

00:21:35.519 --> 00:21:37.480
We<00:21:35.559><c> believe</c><00:21:35.839><c> knowledge</c><00:21:36.319><c> brings</c><00:21:36.680><c> responsibility.</c>

00:21:37.900 --> 00:21:39.640
We<00:21:37.940><c> are</c><00:21:38.779><c> responsible.</c>

00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:41.559
We<00:21:40.099><c> know</c><00:21:40.319><c> what</c><00:21:40.460><c> we're</c><00:21:40.680><c> supposed</c><00:21:41.079><c> to</c><00:21:41.279><c> do.</c>

00:21:41.880 --> 00:21:43.400
The<00:21:41.920><c> question</c><00:21:42.259><c> is,</c><00:21:42.519><c> are</c><00:21:42.640><c> we</c><00:21:42.940><c> doing</c><00:21:43.200><c> it?</c>

00:21:43.460 --> 00:21:45.299
You<00:21:43.640><c> can</c><00:21:43.799><c> go</c><00:21:44.000><c> home</c><00:21:44.220><c> and</c><00:21:44.359><c> do</c><00:21:44.500><c> things</c><00:21:44.839><c> in</c><00:21:45.019><c> secret</c>

00:21:45.299 --> 00:21:47.500
that<00:21:45.519><c> nobody</c><00:21:45.799><c> will</c><00:21:46.079><c> know</c><00:21:46.279><c> about,</c><00:21:46.539><c> particularly</c><00:21:46.880><c> on</c><00:21:47.079><c> a</c><00:21:47.200><c> computer</c>

00:21:47.500 --> 00:21:47.980
nowadays.

00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:50.619
You<00:21:48.660><c> could</c><00:21:48.900><c> pipe</c><00:21:49.119><c> the</c><00:21:49.319><c> world</c><00:21:49.440><c> into</c><00:21:49.619><c> your</c><00:21:49.819><c> house.</c>

00:21:51.500 --> 00:21:53.539
Out<00:21:51.940><c> of</c><00:21:52.380><c> their</c><00:21:52.519><c> house</c><00:21:52.700><c> to</c><00:21:52.839><c> mix</c><00:21:53.000><c> with</c><00:21:53.099><c> the</c><00:21:53.319><c> world.</c>

00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:55.019
We<00:21:54.039><c> can</c><00:21:54.180><c> bring</c><00:21:54.319><c> in</c><00:21:54.500><c> the</c><00:21:54.680><c> television.</c>

00:21:55.160 --> 00:21:57.720
We<00:21:55.240><c> can</c><00:21:55.440><c> bring</c><00:21:55.660><c> in</c><00:21:56.039><c> the</c><00:21:56.099><c> computers</c><00:21:56.660><c> and</c><00:21:57.119><c> internet</c><00:21:57.440><c> and</c><00:21:57.579><c> things.</c>

00:21:57.720 --> 00:22:02.339
We<00:21:58.200><c> can</c><00:21:58.579><c> live</c><00:21:58.839><c> a</c><00:21:58.960><c> terrible</c><00:21:59.400><c> life</c><00:22:00.259><c> within</c><00:22:00.779><c> four</c><00:22:01.099><c> walls.</c>

00:22:02.420 --> 00:22:04.559
It's<00:22:02.619><c> totally</c><00:22:02.940><c> displeasing</c><00:22:03.559><c> to</c><00:22:03.700><c> God.</c>

00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:07.079
We're<00:22:04.779><c> not</c><00:22:04.940><c> getting</c><00:22:05.140><c> away</c><00:22:05.380><c> with</c><00:22:05.579><c> anything</c><00:22:05.819><c> because</c><00:22:06.180><c> God</c><00:22:06.460><c> knows</c>

00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:09.460
what<00:22:07.519><c> we're</c><00:22:07.720><c> seeing,</c><00:22:08.460><c> what</c><00:22:08.500><c> we're</c><00:22:08.700><c> thinking,</c><00:22:09.240><c> and</c><00:22:09.319><c> what</c>

00:22:09.460 --> 00:22:10.440
we're<00:22:09.599><c> doing.</c>

00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:14.819
So<00:22:10.799><c> the</c><00:22:10.859><c> right</c><00:22:11.019><c> time</c><00:22:11.180><c> to</c><00:22:11.339><c> clean</c><00:22:11.460><c> up</c><00:22:11.640><c> our</c><00:22:11.799><c> act</c><00:22:12.180><c> is</c><00:22:13.440><c> right</c><00:22:13.859><c> now.</c>

00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:18.299
That's<00:22:15.539><c> why</c><00:22:15.799><c> we</c><00:22:15.980><c> asked</c><00:22:16.119><c> you</c><00:22:16.279><c> to</c><00:22:16.440><c> sign</c><00:22:16.539><c> that</c><00:22:16.759><c> little</c><00:22:17.039><c> slip</c><00:22:17.259><c> of</c><00:22:17.500><c> paper.</c>

00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:20.740
I'm<00:22:18.920><c> sorry</c><00:22:19.099><c> we</c><00:22:19.240><c> ran</c><00:22:19.480><c> out</c><00:22:19.720><c> of</c><00:22:19.799><c> them,</c><00:22:19.859><c> but</c><00:22:19.960><c> there's</c><00:22:20.119><c> more</c><00:22:20.299><c> in</c><00:22:20.460><c> the</c><00:22:20.579><c> back.</c>

00:22:20.839 --> 00:22:23.240
So<00:22:20.940><c> if</c><00:22:20.980><c> you</c><00:22:21.099><c> didn't</c><00:22:21.299><c> get</c><00:22:21.480><c> one,</c><00:22:21.680><c> you</c><00:22:21.759><c> certainly</c><00:22:22.039><c> can</c><00:22:22.160><c> have</c><00:22:22.339><c> one</c><00:22:22.539><c> now.</c>

00:22:25.619 --> 00:22:28.660
And<00:22:26.059><c> we</c><00:22:26.500><c> have</c><00:22:26.680><c> to</c><00:22:26.740><c> remember</c><00:22:27.259><c> what</c><00:22:27.619><c> we're</c><00:22:27.839><c> committing</c><00:22:28.119><c> our</c><00:22:28.339><c> life</c><00:22:28.500><c> to</c>

00:22:28.660 --> 00:22:29.440
doing.

00:22:30.099 --> 00:22:32.000
We've<00:22:30.339><c> studied</c><00:22:30.460><c> the</c><00:22:30.579><c> book</c><00:22:30.759><c> of</c><00:22:30.920><c> Nehemiah,</c><00:22:31.319><c> not</c><00:22:31.539><c> so</c><00:22:31.680><c> we</c><00:22:31.819><c> would</c>

00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:34.920
become<00:22:32.240><c> an</c><00:22:32.460><c> expert</c><00:22:32.660><c> on</c><00:22:32.740><c> Nehemiah,</c><00:22:34.279><c> but</c><00:22:34.440><c> so</c><00:22:34.579><c> that</c><00:22:34.700><c> we</c><00:22:34.740><c> could</c>

00:22:34.920 --> 00:22:35.339

00:23:44.279 --> 00:23:46.980

extent<00:23:56.779><c> of</c><00:23:56.980><c> it</c><00:23:57.299><c> because</c><00:23:57.660><c> we</c><00:23:57.799><c> have</c><00:23:57.940><c> nothing</c><00:23:58.119><c> in</c><00:23:58.420><c> common</c><00:23:58.559><c> except</c>

there<00:24:33.460><c> has</c><00:24:33.680><c> to</c><00:24:33.819><c> be</c><00:24:33.900><c> some</c><00:24:34.220><c> changes</c><00:24:34.619><c> made.</c>

00:24:36.579 --> 00:24:40.920
There<00:24:36.759><c> are</c><00:24:37.400><c> sins</c><00:24:37.619><c> of</c><00:24:37.900><c> omission</c><00:24:38.420><c> and</c><00:24:38.920><c> there</c><00:24:38.960><c> are</c><00:24:39.279><c> sins</c><00:24:39.559><c> of</c><00:24:39.920><c> commission.</c>

00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:44.700
And<00:24:42.039><c> some</c><00:24:42.839><c> people</c><00:24:43.099><c> just</c><00:24:43.400><c> don't</c><00:24:43.680><c> do</c><00:24:43.920><c> much</c><00:24:44.180><c> of</c><00:24:44.380><c> anything.</c>

00:24:44.700 --> 00:24:47.079
As<00:24:45.400><c> you</c><00:24:45.559><c> get</c><00:24:45.799><c> older,</c><00:24:46.119><c> it's</c><00:24:46.279><c> easier</c><00:24:46.579><c> to</c><00:24:46.759><c> do</c><00:24:46.940><c> that.</c>

00:24:47.099 --> 00:24:49.319
They<00:24:47.279><c> say</c><00:24:47.660><c> a</c><00:24:48.019><c> rocking</c><00:24:48.220><c> chair</c><00:24:48.519><c> is</c><00:24:48.619><c> something</c><00:24:48.900><c> that</c><00:24:49.119><c> gives</c><00:24:49.119><c> you</c>

00:24:49.319 --> 00:24:51.640
something<00:24:49.599><c> to</c><00:24:49.839><c> do,</c><00:24:49.980><c> but</c><00:24:50.119><c> you</c><00:24:50.200><c> don't</c><00:24:50.400><c> get</c><00:24:50.640><c> anywhere.</c>

00:24:53.380 --> 00:24:57.240
And<00:24:53.579><c> some</c><00:24:53.759><c> people</c><00:24:54.380><c> just</c><00:24:55.180><c> sit</c><00:24:55.440><c> in</c><00:24:55.500><c> their</c><00:24:55.660><c> rocking</c><00:24:56.119><c> chair</c><00:24:56.400><c> and</c><00:24:56.960><c> they</c>

00:24:57.240 --> 00:24:58.279
rock.

00:24:59.099 --> 00:25:03.539
So<00:24:59.619><c> we</c><00:25:00.140><c> need</c><00:25:00.359><c> to</c><00:25:00.420><c> go</c><00:25:00.700><c> back</c><00:25:00.960><c> home</c><00:25:01.240><c> and</c><00:25:01.420><c> get</c><00:25:01.720><c> totally</c><00:25:02.259><c> immersed</c><00:25:02.940><c> in</c>

00:25:03.539 --> 00:25:04.980
the<00:25:03.940><c> activities</c><00:25:04.240><c> of</c><00:25:04.480><c> the</c><00:25:04.680><c> truth.</c>

00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:08.500
If<00:25:05.660><c> you</c><00:25:05.839><c> don't</c><00:25:06.019><c> have</c><00:25:06.220><c> something</c><00:25:06.480><c> to</c><00:25:06.740><c> do,</c><00:25:07.420><c> it's</c><00:25:07.700><c> so</c><00:25:07.980><c> easy</c><00:25:08.180><c> to</c>

00:25:08.500 --> 00:25:09.440
find<00:25:08.759><c> it.</c>

00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:14.940
Nowadays,<00:25:11.240><c> invalids</c><00:25:11.640><c> can</c><00:25:13.180><c> do</c><00:25:13.579><c> work</c><00:25:13.680><c> for</c><00:25:13.920><c> the</c><00:25:14.019><c> truth.</c>

00:25:14.980 --> 00:25:16.900
Diane<00:25:15.140><c> Grandchamp,</c><00:25:15.579><c> we've</c><00:25:15.759><c> mentioned</c><00:25:15.960><c> her</c><00:25:16.140><c> before,</c><00:25:16.539><c> but</c><00:25:16.619><c> she's</c>

00:25:16.900 --> 00:25:19.059
an<00:25:17.019><c> inspiration</c><00:25:17.500><c> and</c><00:25:17.700><c> she</c><00:25:17.900><c> can't</c><00:25:18.099><c> do</c><00:25:18.240><c> much</c><00:25:18.480><c> of</c><00:25:18.619><c> anything</c><00:25:18.819><c> except</c>

inspire<00:25:19.400><c> others,</c><00:25:19.759><c> but</c><00:25:19.960><c> she</c><00:25:20.140><c> does</c><00:25:20.400><c> it.</c>

00:25:21.339 --> 00:25:22.140
She<00:25:21.740><c> studies.</c>

00:25:22.259 --> 00:25:23.900
They<00:25:22.440><c> have</c><00:25:22.539><c> Bible</c><00:25:22.859><c> classes</c><00:25:23.180><c> in</c><00:25:23.420><c> her</c><00:25:23.660><c> room.</c>

00:25:24.240 --> 00:25:26.220
She<00:25:24.640><c> has</c><00:25:24.819><c> a</c><00:25:25.039><c> good</c><00:25:25.160><c> knowledge</c><00:25:25.480><c> of</c><00:25:25.660><c> the</c><00:25:25.880><c> truth.</c>

00:25:26.660 --> 00:25:28.700
She<00:25:26.819><c> can't</c><00:25:27.000><c> go</c><00:25:27.220><c> out</c><00:25:27.319><c> on</c><00:25:27.500><c> the</c><00:25:27.559><c> street</c><00:25:27.740><c> corner</c><00:25:27.900><c> and</c><00:25:28.140><c> preach</c><00:25:28.400><c> it</c><00:25:28.579><c> and</c>

00:25:28.700 --> 00:25:29.900
she's<00:25:28.960><c> not</c><00:25:29.119><c> able</c><00:25:29.339><c> to</c><00:25:29.480><c> do</c><00:25:29.619><c> that.</c>

00:25:30.140 --> 00:25:32.440
But<00:25:30.319><c> she's</c><00:25:30.579><c> doing</c><00:25:30.700><c> what</c><00:25:30.880><c> she</c><00:25:31.059><c> can,</c><00:25:31.259><c> watching</c><00:25:31.480><c> her</c><00:25:31.680><c> where</c><00:25:31.799><c> she</c><00:25:32.140><c> is.</c>

00:25:32.539 --> 00:25:34.839
And<00:25:32.700><c> so</c><00:25:32.880><c> we</c><00:25:33.200><c> need</c><00:25:33.359><c> to</c><00:25:33.480><c> do</c><00:25:33.579><c> the</c><00:25:33.740><c> same</c><00:25:33.920><c> thing.</c>

00:25:35.099 --> 00:25:38.180
So<00:25:35.240><c> when</c><00:25:35.400><c> somebody</c><00:25:35.720><c> says,</c><00:25:36.559><c> let's</c><00:25:36.720><c> go</c><00:25:36.900><c> sin,</c><00:25:37.119><c> you</c><00:25:37.400><c> say,</c>

00:25:38.859 --> 00:25:40.799
Oh,<00:25:39.359><c> no,</c><00:25:39.680><c> that's</c><00:25:40.279><c> right.</c>

00:25:41.019 --> 00:25:42.099
Don't<00:25:41.500><c> just</c><00:25:41.740><c> remember.</c>

00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:43.940
Oh,<00:25:42.839><c> no.</c>

00:25:44.339 --> 00:25:47.299
So<00:25:44.819><c> have</c><00:25:45.299><c> we</c><00:25:45.519><c> learned</c><00:25:45.759><c> to</c><00:25:45.980><c> make</c><00:25:46.119><c> our</c><00:25:46.359><c> prayer</c><00:25:46.519><c> into</c><00:25:46.700><c> God</c><00:25:47.019><c> instead</c>

00:25:52.619 --> 00:25:56.220
We,<00:25:53.000><c> we,</c><00:25:53.220><c> we,</c><00:25:53.599><c> we</c><00:25:53.779><c> watchful</c><00:25:54.299><c> and</c><00:25:54.759><c> we're</c><00:25:55.319><c> working.</c>

00:25:56.500 --> 00:26:00.160
Have<00:25:56.619><c> we</c><00:25:56.839><c> learned</c><00:25:56.960><c> to</c><00:25:57.220><c> look</c><00:25:57.380><c> up</c><00:25:57.980><c> instead</c><00:25:58.299><c> of</c><00:25:58.460><c> looking</c><00:25:58.660><c> down</c><00:25:59.180><c> to</c>

00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:03.759
consider<00:26:00.460><c> the</c><00:26:00.779><c> power</c><00:26:01.420><c> instead</c><00:26:01.880><c> of</c><00:26:01.980><c> the</c><00:26:02.220><c> problem</c><00:26:02.700><c> to</c><00:26:03.380><c> realize</c><00:26:03.539><c> that</c>

And<00:26:04.859><c> if</c><00:26:05.039><c> he</c><00:26:05.220><c> is</c><00:26:05.400><c> for</c><00:26:05.519><c> us,</c><00:26:05.740><c> there's</c><00:26:05.880><c> nothing</c><00:26:06.059><c> can</c><00:26:06.299><c> defeat</c><00:26:06.619><c> us.</c>

00:26:09.779 --> 00:26:13.039
We<00:26:10.180><c> don't</c><00:26:10.579><c> want</c><00:26:10.940><c> to</c><00:26:11.140><c> let</c><00:26:11.140><c> the</c><00:26:11.420><c> Sanballettes</c><00:26:11.960><c> and</c><00:26:12.180><c> the</c><00:26:12.359><c> Tobias</c><00:26:12.759><c> try</c>

00:28:47.559 --> 00:28:50.180
In<00:28:47.680><c> order</c><00:28:47.839><c> to</c><00:28:48.019><c> repent,</c><00:28:48.220><c> we</c><00:28:48.319><c> have</c><00:28:48.559><c> to</c><00:28:48.700><c> be</c><00:28:49.160><c> sorry</c><00:28:49.619><c> for</c><00:28:49.759><c> what</c><00:28:49.920><c> we've</c>

00:28:50.180 --> 00:28:52.759
done<00:28:50.359><c> and</c><00:28:50.519><c> say,</c><00:28:50.680><c> I'm</c><00:28:50.900><c> going</c><00:28:51.019><c> to</c><00:28:51.119><c> try</c><00:28:51.299><c> not</c><00:28:51.500><c> to</c><00:28:51.619><c> do</c><00:28:51.700><c> it</c><00:28:51.839><c> again.</c>

00:28:53.180 --> 00:28:54.980
And<00:28:53.400><c> then</c><00:28:53.779><c> try</c><00:28:54.079><c> to</c><00:28:54.240><c> keep</c><00:28:54.380><c> that</c><00:28:54.619><c> promise.</c>

00:28:54.980 --> 00:28:58.359
And<00:28:55.500><c> then</c><00:28:55.740><c> we</c><00:28:55.740><c> need</c><00:28:55.980><c> to</c><00:28:56.160><c> reflect</c><00:28:56.680><c> upon</c><00:28:57.319><c> the</c><00:28:57.559><c> great</c><00:28:57.819><c> goodness</c><00:28:58.140><c> of</c>

00:28:58.359 --> 00:28:58.740
God.

00:28:58.900 --> 00:29:01.519
Reflection<00:28:59.339><c> helps</c><00:28:59.579><c> us</c><00:28:59.779><c> to</c><00:29:00.079><c> recognize</c><00:29:00.539><c> that</c><00:29:00.759><c> we</c><00:29:00.920><c> cannot</c><00:29:01.220><c> do</c><00:29:01.359><c> it</c>

00:29:01.519 --> 00:29:02.220
alone.

00:29:02.460 --> 00:29:04.759
Salvation<00:29:02.880><c> is</c><00:29:03.039><c> not</c><00:29:03.200><c> a</c><00:29:03.259><c> do</c><00:29:03.420><c>-it</c><00:29:03.480><c>-yourself</c><00:29:03.940><c> kit.</c>

00:29:05.019 --> 00:29:08.900
But<00:29:05.119><c> with</c><00:29:05.720><c> God's</c><00:29:06.180><c> mercy,</c><00:29:07.319><c> God's</c><00:29:07.720><c> love,</c><00:29:08.039><c> God's</c><00:29:08.339><c> willingness</c><00:29:08.660><c> to</c>

00:29:08.900 --> 00:29:11.380
forgive<00:29:09.160><c> us,</c><00:29:09.839><c> we</c><00:29:10.299><c> can</c><00:29:10.880><c> succeed.</c>

00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:12.779
That's<00:29:11.779><c> the</c><00:29:11.880><c> good</c><00:29:12.059><c> news,</c><00:29:12.420><c> brothers</c><00:29:12.460><c> and</c><00:29:12.640><c> sisters.</c>

00:29:13.220 --> 00:29:15.400
Every<00:29:13.579><c> one</c><00:29:13.799><c> of</c><00:29:13.880><c> us</c><00:29:14.180><c> can</c><00:29:14.720><c> be</c><00:29:14.940><c> in</c><00:29:15.059><c> the</c><00:29:15.180><c> kingdom.</c>

00:29:15.539 --> 00:29:17.140
God<00:29:15.920><c> wants</c><00:29:16.380><c> us</c><00:29:16.640><c> there.</c>

00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:19.400
It's<00:29:17.740><c> not</c><00:29:17.920><c> willing</c><00:29:18.299><c> that</c><00:29:18.519><c> any</c><00:29:18.700><c> should</c><00:29:18.920><c> perish.</c>

00:29:19.880 --> 00:29:23.240
So<00:29:20.019><c> if</c><00:29:20.160><c> we</c><00:29:20.339><c> perish,</c><00:29:21.720><c> it'll</c><00:29:21.819><c> be</c><00:29:21.819><c> because</c><00:29:22.039><c> that's</c><00:29:22.220><c> what</c><00:29:22.380><c> we</c><00:29:22.559><c> wanted.</c>

00:29:23.599 --> 00:29:24.599
We<00:29:23.900><c> will</c><00:29:24.099><c> get</c><00:29:24.220><c> our</c><00:29:24.440><c> wish.</c>

00:29:24.599 --> 00:29:27.019
If<00:29:24.740><c> you</c><00:29:24.819><c> don't</c><00:29:24.920><c> want</c><00:29:25.039><c> to</c><00:29:25.099><c> be</c><00:29:25.180><c> in</c><00:29:25.279><c> the</c><00:29:25.359><c> kingdom,</c><00:29:26.400><c> you</c><00:29:26.559><c> will</c><00:29:26.720><c> get</c><00:29:26.819><c> your</c>

00:29:27.019 --> 00:29:27.880
wish.

00:29:28.779 --> 00:29:31.039
And<00:29:28.859><c> if</c><00:29:28.900><c> you</c><00:29:29.119><c> really</c><00:29:29.400><c> want</c><00:29:29.559><c> to</c><00:29:29.619><c> be</c><00:29:29.720><c> in</c><00:29:29.839><c> the</c><00:29:29.880><c> kingdom</c><00:29:30.160><c> with</c><00:29:30.440><c> every</c>

fiber<00:29:31.359><c> of</c><00:29:31.480><c> your</c><00:29:31.700><c> being,</c><00:29:32.539><c> the</c><00:29:32.579><c> good</c><00:29:32.779><c> news</c><00:29:33.019><c> is</c><00:29:33.339><c> you</c><00:29:33.799><c> will.</c>

00:29:34.980 --> 00:29:39.299
Because<00:29:35.299><c> the</c><00:29:35.420><c> Lord</c><00:29:35.559><c> died</c><00:29:35.859><c> for</c><00:29:36.059><c> you</c><00:29:36.380><c> and</c><00:29:37.480><c> he</c><00:29:37.759><c> has</c><00:29:38.339><c> his</c><00:29:38.539><c> angel</c><00:29:38.819><c> camping</c>

around<00:29:39.599><c> about</c><00:29:39.920><c> you.</c>

00:29:41.220 --> 00:29:43.980
And<00:29:41.339><c> so</c><00:29:41.619><c> we</c><00:29:42.440><c> need</c><00:29:42.640><c> to</c><00:29:43.140><c> recommit</c><00:29:43.500><c> ourselves.</c>

00:29:44.059 --> 00:29:46.720
We're<00:29:44.240><c> coming</c><00:29:44.480><c> to</c><00:29:44.700><c> the</c><00:29:44.799><c> last</c><00:29:45.400><c> class</c><00:29:45.720><c> of</c><00:29:45.920><c> the</c><00:29:46.019><c> whole</c><00:29:46.220><c> Bible</c><00:29:46.539><c> school</c>

00:29:46.720 --> 00:29:47.500
right<00:29:47.000><c> now.</c>

00:29:47.900 --> 00:29:50.420
And<00:29:48.119><c> so</c><00:29:48.440><c> if</c><00:29:48.539><c> we</c><00:29:48.680><c> haven't</c><00:29:48.859><c> signed</c><00:29:49.079><c> that</c><00:29:49.319><c> renewal</c><00:29:49.619><c> covenant,</c><00:29:50.079><c> I</c><00:29:50.240><c> hope</c>

00:29:50.420 --> 00:29:51.200
that<00:29:50.640><c> you</c><00:29:50.859><c> will.</c>

00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:55.259
I<00:29:51.859><c> promise</c><00:29:52.220><c> to</c><00:29:52.440><c> try</c><00:29:52.680><c> my</c><00:29:52.920><c> best</c><00:29:53.400><c> to</c><00:29:53.740><c> walk</c><00:29:54.180><c> in</c><00:29:54.519><c> God's</c><00:29:55.000><c> law.</c>

00:29:55.500 --> 00:29:57.039
That<00:29:55.619><c> means</c><00:29:55.920><c> walking,</c><00:29:56.579><c> doesn't</c><00:29:56.720><c> it?</c>

00:29:57.259 --> 00:29:59.160
Does<00:29:57.680><c> that</c><00:29:57.779><c> mean</c><00:29:57.960><c> crippled</c><00:29:58.240><c> people</c><00:29:58.440><c> can't</c><00:29:58.619><c> get</c><00:29:58.779><c> in</c><00:29:58.920><c> the</c><00:29:59.019><c> kingdom?</c>

00:29:59.180 --> 00:30:00.380
Of<00:29:59.400><c> course</c><00:29:59.539><c> it</c><00:29:59.640><c> doesn't.</c>

00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:03.220
You<00:30:01.220><c> can</c><00:30:01.420><c> walk</c><00:30:01.720><c> mentally</c><00:30:02.000><c> even</c><00:30:02.339><c> if</c><00:30:02.460><c> you're</c><00:30:02.759><c> physically</c>

00:30:03.220 --> 00:30:04.160
incapacitated.

00:30:04.660 --> 00:30:08.000
And<00:30:04.740><c> do</c><00:30:05.200><c> all</c><00:30:05.579><c> the</c><00:30:05.720><c> commandments</c><00:30:06.039><c> of</c><00:30:06.200><c> the</c><00:30:06.319><c> Lord</c><00:30:06.480><c> our</c><00:30:06.700><c> God</c><00:30:07.000><c> and</c><00:30:07.740><c> his</c>

00:30:10.579 --> 00:30:12.059
We've<00:30:11.039><c> got</c><00:30:11.039><c> to</c><00:30:11.259><c> try</c><00:30:11.559><c> harder.</c>

00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:12.799
That's<00:30:12.440><c> the</c><00:30:12.559><c> point.</c>

00:30:13.180 --> 00:30:15.819
We've<00:30:13.400><c> got</c><00:30:13.519><c> to</c><00:30:13.779><c> really</c><00:30:14.900><c> try</c><00:30:15.500><c> harder.</c>

00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:17.980
And<00:30:16.079><c> some</c><00:30:16.200><c> people</c><00:30:16.400><c> don't</c><00:30:16.559><c> want</c><00:30:16.779><c> to</c><00:30:16.940><c> try</c><00:30:17.119><c> because</c><00:30:17.339><c> they</c><00:30:17.539><c> think,</c><00:30:17.700><c> well,</c>

00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:19.880
I<00:30:18.519><c> may</c><00:30:18.720><c> fall.</c>

00:30:20.099 --> 00:30:22.440
To<00:30:20.579><c> fall</c><00:30:20.960><c> is</c><00:30:21.140><c> not</c><00:30:21.380><c> to</c><00:30:21.640><c> fail.</c>

00:30:23.119 --> 00:30:25.420
And<00:30:23.160><c> thus</c><00:30:23.319><c> you</c><00:30:23.579><c> fail</c><00:30:23.880><c> to</c><00:30:24.059><c> get</c><00:30:24.180><c> up</c><00:30:24.339><c> again.</c>

00:30:26.140 --> 00:30:27.779
Everybody<00:30:26.440><c> falls.</c>

00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:31.400
Michael<00:30:29.680><c> talked</c><00:30:29.940><c> about</c><00:30:30.099><c> little</c><00:30:30.339><c> babies</c><00:30:30.619><c> learning</c><00:30:30.880><c> to</c><00:30:31.099><c> walk.</c>

00:30:31.900 --> 00:30:35.599
And<00:30:31.900><c> they</c><00:30:32.160><c> fall</c><00:30:32.460><c> down</c><00:30:32.759><c> a</c><00:30:32.900><c> lot</c><00:30:33.259><c> until</c><00:30:33.940><c> they</c><00:30:34.220><c> learn</c><00:30:34.400><c> how</c><00:30:34.619><c> to</c><00:30:34.779><c> walk.</c>

00:30:35.779 --> 00:30:36.880
Parable<00:30:36.099><c> of</c><00:30:36.200><c> Solomon</c><00:30:36.619><c> says,</c>

00:30:36.920 --> 00:30:43.400
For<00:30:37.140><c> a</c><00:30:37.339><c> just</c><00:30:37.539><c> man</c><00:30:37.900><c> falleth</c><00:30:38.700><c> seven</c><00:30:39.400><c> times</c><00:30:40.559><c> and</c><00:30:41.740><c> riseth</c><00:30:42.099><c> up</c><00:30:42.319><c> again.</c>

00:30:44.059 --> 00:30:47.799
But<00:30:44.319><c> the</c><00:30:44.559><c> wicked</c><00:30:44.859><c> shall</c><00:30:45.160><c> fall</c><00:30:46.380><c> into</c><00:30:46.799><c> mischief.</c>

00:30:49.380 --> 00:30:52.680
So<00:30:49.599><c> of</c><00:30:49.680><c> course,</c><00:30:50.160><c> brothers</c><00:30:50.319><c> and</c><00:30:50.440><c> sisters,</c><00:30:51.119><c> we</c><00:30:51.400><c> fail.</c>

00:30:53.180 --> 00:30:54.960
And<00:30:53.700><c> we</c><00:30:53.940><c> fall.</c>

00:30:55.500 --> 00:30:57.940
But<00:30:55.759><c> we</c><00:30:55.960><c> keep</c><00:30:56.359><c> getting</c><00:30:56.680><c> up</c><00:30:56.960><c> again.</c>

00:30:58.680 --> 00:31:04.920
And<00:30:58.720><c> so</c><00:30:59.160><c> the</c><00:30:59.480><c> last</c><00:30:59.880><c> chapter</c><00:31:00.319><c> of</c><00:31:00.579><c> the</c><00:31:00.640><c> book</c><00:31:00.859><c> of</c><00:31:01.000><c> Nehemiah</c><00:31:02.420><c> is</c><00:31:02.980><c> the</c><00:31:04.279><c> type</c><00:31:04.680><c> of</c>

00:34:08.860 --> 00:34:12.159
So<00:34:09.000><c> when</c><00:34:09.380><c> Richard</c><00:34:09.579><c> is</c><00:34:09.960><c> down</c><00:34:10.300><c> there</c><00:34:10.460><c> now,</c><00:34:10.840><c> some</c><00:34:11.039><c> talks</c><00:34:11.300><c> he</c><00:34:11.420><c> gives</c><00:34:11.659><c> in</c><00:34:11.780><c> English,</c>

00:34:15.219 --> 00:34:20.539
He<00:34:15.500><c> took</c><00:34:16.000><c> immersion</c><00:34:16.579><c> in</c><00:34:17.159><c> Spanish,</c><00:34:18.260><c> and</c><00:34:18.400><c> he</c><00:34:18.539><c> did</c><00:34:18.820><c> really</c><00:34:19.340><c> well</c>

00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:32.980
And<00:34:30.820><c> this</c><00:34:30.940><c> is</c><00:34:31.099><c> true</c><00:34:31.219><c> when</c><00:34:31.380><c> you</c><00:34:31.559><c> go</c><00:34:32.139><c> to</c><00:34:32.360><c> other</c><00:34:32.579><c> countries,</c>

00:34:53.739 --> 00:34:59.000

00:35:08.440 --> 00:35:12.760
And<00:35:08.659><c> I</c><00:35:09.059><c> would</c><00:35:09.260><c> give</c><00:35:09.340><c> my</c><00:35:09.579><c> talk,</c><00:35:10.519><c> and</c><00:35:10.619><c> the</c><00:35:10.760><c> Malayalam</c><00:35:11.059><c> brother</c><00:35:11.260><c> would</c><00:35:11.440><c> tell</c><00:35:11.559><c> them</c><00:35:11.619><c> what</c><00:35:11.780><c> I</c><00:35:12.019><c> said.</c>

00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:13.860
But<00:35:13.099><c> they</c><00:35:13.199><c> had</c><00:35:13.340><c> a</c><00:35:13.500><c> microphone.</c>

00:35:13.880 --> 00:35:14.900
It<00:35:14.000><c> went</c><00:35:14.099><c> into</c><00:35:14.260><c> a</c><00:35:14.280><c> different</c><00:35:14.559><c> building.</c>

00:35:17.880 --> 00:35:19.900
So<00:35:18.039><c> I'd</c><00:35:18.300><c> say</c><00:35:18.340><c> a</c><00:35:18.519><c> few</c><00:35:18.659><c> words,</c><00:35:18.980><c> and</c><00:35:19.139><c> they</c><00:35:19.239><c> would</c><00:35:19.400><c> hear</c><00:35:19.579><c> it,</c>

00:35:20.039 --> 00:35:21.340
and<00:35:20.219><c> they</c><00:35:20.340><c> would</c><00:35:20.500><c> tell</c><00:35:20.659><c> them</c><00:35:20.719><c> what</c><00:35:20.880><c> I</c><00:35:21.039><c> was</c><00:35:21.199><c> saying.</c>

00:35:21.400 --> 00:35:24.039
Well,<00:35:21.960><c> this</c><00:35:22.119><c> brother</c><00:35:22.320><c> was</c><00:35:22.539><c> telling</c><00:35:22.760><c> the</c><00:35:23.099><c> Malayalam</c><00:35:23.420><c> people</c><00:35:23.559><c> what</c><00:35:23.699><c> I</c><00:35:23.920><c> said.</c>

00:35:24.420 --> 00:35:27.599
But<00:35:24.579><c> the</c><00:35:24.860><c> Telugu</c><00:35:25.199><c> people</c><00:35:25.519><c> couldn't</c><00:35:26.619><c> see</c><00:35:27.360><c> me.</c>

00:35:27.599 --> 00:35:28.880
I<00:35:27.699><c> was</c><00:35:27.820><c> in</c><00:35:27.820><c> a</c><00:35:27.820><c> different</c><00:35:28.079><c> building.</c>

00:35:29.059 --> 00:35:31.539
So<00:35:29.179><c> this</c><00:35:29.940><c> Malayalam</c><00:35:30.320><c> brother's</c><00:35:30.679><c> name</c><00:35:30.800><c> was</c><00:35:30.980><c> Brother</c><00:35:31.239><c> Joy</c>

00:35:31.539 --> 00:35:32.800
Kuti,<00:35:31.980><c> lovely</c><00:35:32.400><c> brother.</c>

00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:35.480
But<00:35:33.420><c> I</c><00:35:33.659><c> would</c><00:35:33.820><c> say</c><00:35:33.920><c> just</c><00:35:34.139><c> a</c><00:35:34.300><c> few</c><00:35:34.420><c> words,</c><00:35:34.679><c> and</c><00:35:34.719><c> he</c><00:35:34.840><c> would</c><00:35:35.000><c> go</c><00:35:35.219><c> on</c>

00:35:35.480 --> 00:35:37.159

00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:40.340
And<00:35:38.039><c> then</c><00:35:38.360><c> when</c><00:35:39.119><c> he'd</c><00:35:39.460><c> stop,</c><00:35:39.639><c> I'd</c><00:35:39.860><c> start</c><00:35:39.960><c> up</c><00:35:40.119><c> again.</c>

00:35:40.460 --> 00:35:42.760
So<00:35:40.639><c> the</c><00:35:40.840><c> brother</c><00:35:41.079><c> in</c><00:35:41.440><c> the</c><00:35:41.760><c> Telugu</c><00:35:42.019><c> brother</c><00:35:42.280><c> would</c><00:35:42.420><c> come</c><00:35:42.599><c> to</c><00:35:42.679><c> me.</c>

00:35:42.800 --> 00:35:45.699
He<00:35:42.800><c> says,</c><00:35:43.079><c> Bob,</c><00:35:43.420><c> he</c><00:35:43.420><c> says,</c><00:35:43.880><c> you</c><00:35:43.960><c> only</c><00:35:44.179><c> say</c><00:35:44.300><c> a</c><00:35:44.480><c> few</c><00:35:44.639><c> words.</c>

00:35:45.719 --> 00:35:49.199
And<00:35:45.860><c> I</c><00:35:46.139><c> tell</c><00:35:46.300><c> him</c><00:35:46.380><c> what</c><00:35:46.519><c> you</c><00:35:46.719><c> said,</c><00:35:46.860><c> and</c><00:35:46.940><c> we</c><00:35:47.119><c> wait,</c><00:35:48.039><c> and</c><00:35:48.219><c> we</c><00:35:48.460><c> wait.</c>

00:35:49.320 --> 00:35:51.380
I<00:35:49.380><c> said,</c><00:35:49.480><c> I'm</c><00:35:49.639><c> waiting</c><00:35:49.719><c> for</c><00:35:49.860><c> that</c><00:35:50.000><c> guy</c><00:35:50.099><c> to</c><00:35:50.260><c> shut</c><00:35:50.460><c> up.</c>

00:35:53.760 --> 00:35:55.019
So<00:35:54.119><c> I</c><00:35:54.480><c> went</c><00:35:54.659><c> to</c><00:35:54.739><c> him</c><00:35:54.840><c> one</c><00:35:54.940><c> day.</c>

00:35:55.099 --> 00:35:57.659
I<00:35:55.099><c> said,</c><00:35:55.340><c> Brother</c><00:35:55.440><c> Joy</c><00:35:55.719><c> Kuti,</c><00:35:56.059><c> I</c><00:35:56.260><c> only</c><00:35:56.579><c> say</c><00:35:56.739><c> a</c><00:35:56.940><c> few</c><00:35:57.079><c> words,</c><00:35:57.460><c> and</c>

00:35:57.659 --> 00:35:58.739
you<00:35:57.860><c> say</c><00:35:58.039><c> quite</c><00:35:58.280><c> a</c><00:35:58.519><c> lot.</c>

00:35:59.019 --> 00:36:01.360
He<00:35:59.119><c> said,</c><00:35:59.219><c> well,</c><00:35:59.380><c> I'm</c><00:35:59.579><c> improving</c><00:35:59.960><c> on</c><00:36:00.139><c> what</c><00:36:00.280><c> you</c><00:36:00.579><c> said.</c>

00:36:05.400 --> 00:36:08.559
And<00:36:05.940><c> I</c><00:36:06.239><c> appreciate</c><00:36:06.780><c> that</c><00:36:07.000><c> there</c><00:36:07.119><c> was</c><00:36:07.280><c> a</c><00:36:07.360><c> lot</c><00:36:07.539><c> of</c><00:36:07.699><c> room</c><00:36:07.840><c> for</c><00:36:08.099><c> improvement.</c>

00:36:08.659 --> 00:36:11.079
You<00:36:08.880><c> can</c><00:36:09.039><c> do</c><00:36:09.179><c> that</c><00:36:09.340><c> with</c><00:36:09.500><c> any</c><00:36:09.699><c> of</c><00:36:09.860><c> my</c><00:36:10.059><c> classes.</c>

00:36:11.380 --> 00:36:15.039
But<00:36:11.739><c> God</c><00:36:12.019><c> really</c><00:36:12.460><c> did</c><00:36:12.659><c> something</c><00:36:13.000><c> when</c><00:36:13.199><c> he</c><00:36:13.400><c> confounded</c><00:36:13.719><c> the</c><00:36:14.039><c> languages.</c>

00:36:15.500 --> 00:36:19.699
And<00:36:15.820><c> it</c><00:36:16.300><c> has</c><00:36:16.800><c> prevented</c><00:36:17.260><c> us</c><00:36:17.539><c> from</c><00:36:18.599><c> communicating</c><00:36:19.119><c> easily.</c>

00:36:19.860 --> 00:36:22.900
But<00:36:20.019><c> the</c><00:36:20.219><c> point</c><00:36:20.400><c> is</c><00:36:20.599><c> where</c><00:36:20.719><c> there's</c><00:36:21.000><c> a</c><00:36:21.139><c> will,</c><00:36:21.420><c> there's</c><00:36:21.639><c> a</c><00:36:21.780><c> way.</c>

00:36:23.059 --> 00:36:27.420
And<00:36:23.599><c> we</c><00:36:24.000><c> are</c><00:36:24.739><c> putting</c><00:36:25.059><c> the</c><00:36:25.300><c> word</c><00:36:25.440><c> out</c><00:36:25.900><c> in</c><00:36:26.340><c> languages</c><00:36:26.679><c> that</c><00:36:26.960><c> most</c><00:36:27.219><c> of</c>

00:36:27.420 --> 00:36:30.039
us<00:36:27.639><c> have</c><00:36:27.860><c> never</c><00:36:28.300><c> heard</c><00:36:29.059><c> before.</c>

00:36:30.260 --> 00:36:33.300
Brother<00:36:30.699><c> Michael</c><00:36:31.059><c> can</c><00:36:31.239><c> say</c><00:36:31.400><c> a</c><00:36:31.460><c> few</c><00:36:31.679><c> words</c><00:36:31.940><c> in</c><00:36:32.099><c> Hungarian,</c>

00:36:33.380 --> 00:36:34.900
because<00:36:33.500><c> he's</c><00:36:33.639><c> been</c><00:36:33.820><c> to</c><00:36:33.980><c> Hungary</c><00:36:34.219><c> a</c><00:36:34.340><c> few</c><00:36:34.539><c> times.</c>

00:36:35.039 --> 00:36:38.039
I<00:36:35.179><c> guess</c><00:36:35.380><c> he</c><00:36:35.440><c> can</c><00:36:35.619><c> say</c><00:36:35.800><c> some</c><00:36:36.059><c> words</c><00:36:36.280><c> in</c><00:36:36.519><c> Swahili,</c><00:36:37.099><c> but</c><00:36:37.500><c> I</c><00:36:37.920><c> don't</c>

00:36:38.039 --> 00:36:38.739
know<00:36:38.139><c> what</c><00:36:38.320><c> they</c><00:36:38.559><c> are.</c>

00:36:38.739 --> 00:36:41.159
We<00:36:38.860><c> have</c><00:36:39.039><c> a</c><00:36:39.159><c> brother</c><00:36:39.340><c> in</c><00:36:39.519><c> our</c><00:36:39.719><c> culture</c><00:36:39.940><c> from</c><00:36:40.480><c> South</c><00:36:40.920><c> Africa,</c>

00:36:41.280 --> 00:36:42.980
and<00:36:41.280><c> he</c><00:36:41.360><c> can</c><00:36:41.599><c> speak</c><00:36:41.880><c> Zulu.</c>

00:36:43.699 --> 00:36:48.619
But<00:36:43.860><c> the</c><00:36:44.539><c> point</c><00:36:44.860><c> is</c><00:36:45.239><c> that</c><00:36:45.760><c> God</c><00:36:46.280><c> invented</c><00:36:47.039><c> all</c><00:36:47.360><c> these</c><00:36:47.579><c> languages.</c>

00:36:48.739 --> 00:36:51.780
And<00:36:48.820><c> he</c><00:36:49.000><c> invented</c><00:36:49.400><c> them</c><00:36:49.599><c> all</c><00:36:49.780><c> at</c><00:36:49.980><c> once</c><00:36:50.440><c> on</c><00:36:51.000><c> the</c><00:36:51.119><c> same</c><00:36:51.320><c> day</c><00:36:51.579><c> when</c>

00:36:51.780 --> 00:36:53.880
the<00:36:51.920><c> Tower</c><00:36:52.119><c> of</c><00:36:52.219><c> Babel</c><00:36:52.440><c> was</c><00:36:52.659><c> being</c><00:36:53.599><c> built.</c>

00:36:53.880 --> 00:36:58.360
Now,<00:36:54.460><c> you</c><00:36:54.519><c> know,</c><00:36:56.219><c> it</c><00:36:56.460><c> shows</c><00:36:56.699><c> you</c><00:36:56.980><c> how</c><00:36:57.320><c> God's</c><00:36:57.739><c> thoughts</c><00:36:57.940><c> are</c><00:36:58.219><c> as</c>

00:36:59.079 --> 00:37:00.840
as<00:36:59.239><c> the</c><00:36:59.320><c> heavens</c><00:36:59.460><c> are</c><00:36:59.599><c> above</c><00:36:59.820><c> the</c><00:37:00.019><c> earth.</c>

00:37:01.980 --> 00:37:04.880
Had<00:37:02.139><c> I</c><00:37:02.380><c> watched</c><00:37:02.659><c> the</c><00:37:02.820><c> Tower</c><00:37:03.079><c> of</c><00:37:03.260><c> Babel</c><00:37:03.380><c> being</c><00:37:03.760><c> built</c><00:37:04.139><c> and</c><00:37:04.519><c> wanted</c><00:37:04.699><c> to</c>

00:37:04.880 --> 00:37:05.219
stop<00:37:05.079><c> it,</c>

00:37:05.239 --> 00:37:07.579
I<00:37:05.380><c> probably</c><00:37:05.659><c> would</c><00:37:05.840><c> have</c><00:37:05.940><c> had</c><00:37:06.059><c> an</c><00:37:06.199><c> earthquake,</c><00:37:07.159><c> just</c><00:37:07.360><c> knock</c>

00:37:07.579 --> 00:37:08.619
it<00:37:07.800><c> down,</c>

00:37:09.239 --> 00:37:12.579

00:37:12.699 --> 00:37:15.380
How<00:37:12.980><c> did</c><00:37:13.179><c> God</c><00:37:13.500><c> destroy</c><00:37:14.039><c> or</c><00:37:14.300><c> stop</c><00:37:14.539><c> the</c><00:37:14.739><c> work</c><00:37:14.860><c> of</c><00:37:15.039><c> the</c><00:37:15.199><c> Tower</c><00:37:15.300><c> of</c>

the<00:37:15.559><c> Babel,</c>

00:37:16.239 --> 00:37:18.219
the<00:37:16.539><c> Tower</c><00:37:16.820><c> of</c><00:37:16.920><c> Babel</c><00:37:17.099><c> from</c><00:37:17.280><c> being</c><00:37:17.519><c> built?</c>

00:37:18.739 --> 00:37:20.260
He<00:37:18.920><c> didn't</c><00:37:19.099><c> touch</c><00:37:19.340><c> the</c><00:37:19.559><c> tower,</c><00:37:19.880><c> did</c><00:37:19.960><c> he?</c>

00:37:20.460 --> 00:37:23.079
He<00:37:20.699><c> just</c><00:37:21.079><c> made</c><00:37:21.320><c> it</c><00:37:21.559><c> impossible</c><00:37:21.940><c> for</c><00:37:22.179><c> people</c><00:37:22.440><c> to</c><00:37:22.679><c> communicate</c>

00:37:29.880 --> 00:37:30.920
Now,<00:37:30.039><c> we</c><00:37:30.159><c> all</c><00:37:30.380><c> speak</c><00:37:30.619><c> English.</c>

00:37:30.980 --> 00:37:32.739
I<00:37:31.099><c> asked</c><00:37:31.300><c> you</c><00:37:31.440><c> a</c><00:37:31.519><c> while</c><00:37:31.559><c> ago,</c><00:37:31.739><c> what</c><00:37:31.840><c> language</c><00:37:32.159><c> do</c><00:37:32.280><c> you</c><00:37:32.420><c> speak?</c>

00:37:32.780 --> 00:37:34.019
And<00:37:32.880><c> you</c><00:37:32.980><c> would</c><00:37:33.159><c> all</c><00:37:33.360><c> say</c><00:37:33.539><c> English.</c>

00:37:34.519 --> 00:37:36.880
But<00:37:34.820><c> we</c><00:37:35.219><c> do</c><00:37:35.440><c> speak</c><00:37:35.659><c> different</c><00:37:35.980><c> types</c><00:37:36.340><c> of</c><00:37:36.539><c> English.</c>

00:37:37.179 --> 00:37:39.400
There<00:37:37.400><c> are</c><00:37:37.619><c> the</c><00:37:37.800><c> worldly</c><00:37:38.199><c> types</c><00:37:38.659><c> of</c><00:37:39.059><c> English.</c>

00:37:39.519 --> 00:37:42.280
There<00:37:39.599><c> are</c><00:37:39.780><c> words</c><00:37:40.179><c> that</c><00:37:40.619><c> I</c><00:37:40.679><c> don't</c><00:37:40.880><c> even</c><00:37:41.079><c> know</c><00:37:41.199><c> the</c><00:37:41.380><c> meanings</c><00:37:41.699><c> of</c>

00:37:42.280 --> 00:37:46.199
because<00:37:42.900><c> they're</c><00:37:43.119><c> the</c><00:37:43.260><c> words</c><00:37:43.579><c> of</c><00:37:44.400><c> groups</c><00:37:44.780><c> that</c><00:37:45.239><c> I</c><00:37:45.360><c> don't</c><00:37:46.119><c> know</c>

00:37:48.619 --> 00:37:53.639
But<00:37:49.059><c> the</c><00:37:49.260><c> point</c><00:37:49.519><c> is</c><00:37:49.900><c> we</c><00:37:50.380><c> need</c><00:37:50.860><c> to</c><00:37:51.360><c> communicate</c><00:37:51.940><c> with</c><00:37:52.800><c> each</c><00:37:53.119><c> other</c>

00:37:53.639 --> 00:37:55.760

00:37:55.900 --> 00:37:57.619
And<00:37:56.000><c> that's</c><00:37:56.139><c> what</c><00:37:56.300><c> they</c><00:37:56.480><c> did</c><00:37:56.619><c> in</c><00:37:56.840><c> Malachi's</c><00:37:57.440><c> day.</c>

You<00:37:57.739><c> know,</c><00:37:57.960><c> those</c><00:37:58.059><c> that</c><00:37:58.380><c> loved</c><00:37:58.739><c> the</c><00:37:58.960><c> Lord</c><00:37:59.199><c> came</c><00:37:59.699><c> together</c>

00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:02.400
and<00:38:00.260><c> spoke</c><00:38:00.460><c> often</c><00:38:00.780><c> one</c><00:38:01.059><c> to</c><00:38:01.280><c> another</c><00:38:01.559><c> about</c><00:38:01.940><c> it.</c>

00:38:02.699 --> 00:38:04.360
And<00:38:02.920><c> that's</c><00:38:03.579><c> the</c><00:38:03.880><c> good</c><00:38:04.139><c> news.</c>

00:38:04.380 --> 00:38:05.760
And<00:38:04.539><c> that's</c><00:38:04.599><c> what</c><00:38:04.760><c> we've</c><00:38:04.980><c> been</c><00:38:05.079><c> doing</c><00:38:05.280><c> this</c><00:38:05.519><c> week.</c>

00:38:05.900 --> 00:38:08.300
And<00:38:06.059><c> when</c><00:38:06.179><c> we</c><00:38:06.320><c> go</c><00:38:06.500><c> home,</c><00:38:06.940><c> we</c><00:38:07.079><c> want</c><00:38:07.239><c> to</c><00:38:07.360><c> continue</c><00:38:07.719><c> to</c><00:38:07.940><c> do</c><00:38:08.019><c> this.</c>

00:38:08.519 --> 00:38:11.480
We<00:38:08.679><c> want</c><00:38:08.860><c> to</c><00:38:09.000><c> talk</c><00:38:09.360><c> about</c><00:38:09.820><c> the</c><00:38:10.119><c> truth</c><00:38:10.460><c> to</c><00:38:10.760><c> each</c><00:38:11.019><c> other</c>

00:38:14.119 --> 00:38:16.320
And<00:38:14.360><c> then</c><00:38:14.500><c> the</c><00:38:14.659><c> other</c><00:38:14.840><c> thing</c><00:38:15.000><c> we</c><00:38:15.199><c> want</c><00:38:15.340><c> to</c><00:38:15.460><c> do</c><00:38:15.519><c> in</c><00:38:15.739><c> communication</c>

00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:20.360

00:38:22.480 --> 00:38:25.699
And<00:38:22.579><c> how</c><00:38:23.000><c> is</c><00:38:23.260><c> the</c><00:38:23.380><c> best</c><00:38:23.619><c> way</c><00:38:24.119><c> to</c><00:38:24.460><c> do</c><00:38:24.639><c> that?</c>

00:38:25.780 --> 00:38:28.840
How<00:38:25.960><c> is</c><00:38:26.179><c> the</c><00:38:26.340><c> best</c><00:38:26.619><c> way</c><00:38:27.199><c> to</c><00:38:27.500><c> teach</c><00:38:27.760><c> the</c><00:38:28.019><c> truth?</c>

00:38:29.019 --> 00:38:32.019
How<00:38:29.239><c> did</c><00:38:29.639><c> Jesus</c><00:38:30.239><c> teach</c><00:38:30.840><c> the</c><00:38:31.139><c> truth?</c>

00:38:32.619 --> 00:38:34.679
He<00:38:32.920><c> asked</c><00:38:33.400><c> questions.</c>

00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:38.619
When<00:38:35.320><c> you</c><00:38:35.559><c> talk</c><00:38:35.840><c> to</c><00:38:36.019><c> people</c><00:38:36.739><c> and</c><00:38:37.440><c> you</c><00:38:37.559><c> just</c><00:38:37.880><c> talk</c><00:38:38.179><c> on,</c>

00:38:38.860 --> 00:38:40.920
you<00:38:38.920><c> can</c><00:38:39.159><c> sometimes</c><00:38:39.460><c> see</c><00:38:39.659><c> their</c><00:38:39.820><c> eyes</c><00:38:40.179><c> glaze</c><00:38:40.519><c> over</c>

00:38:40.920 --> 00:38:43.420
and<00:38:41.519><c> you</c><00:38:41.760><c> know</c><00:38:42.000><c> that</c><00:38:42.139><c> they're</c><00:38:42.300><c> not</c><00:38:42.519><c> listening.</c>

00:38:43.619 --> 00:38:45.519
But<00:38:43.840><c> when</c><00:38:44.059><c> you</c><00:38:44.260><c> stop</c><00:38:44.500><c> and</c><00:38:44.679><c> ask</c><00:38:44.840><c> them</c><00:38:45.059><c> a</c><00:38:45.219><c> question,</c>

00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:46.960
even<00:38:45.699><c> if</c><00:38:45.900><c> you</c><00:38:45.900><c> say,</c><00:38:46.199><c> what's</c><00:38:46.280><c> your</c><00:38:46.480><c> name?</c>

00:38:47.320 --> 00:38:50.099
They've<00:38:47.539><c> got</c><00:38:47.579><c> to</c><00:38:47.739><c> stop</c><00:38:47.940><c> and</c><00:38:48.300><c> answer</c><00:38:48.699><c> it,</c><00:38:48.900><c> don't</c><00:38:49.260><c> they?</c>

00:38:50.280 --> 00:38:55.659
So<00:38:50.619><c> you</c><00:38:51.079><c> can</c><00:38:52.000><c> preach</c><00:38:52.460><c> the</c><00:38:52.739><c> truth</c><00:38:52.940><c> by</c><00:38:53.320><c> asking</c><00:38:54.099><c> good</c><00:38:54.940><c> questions.</c>

00:38:56.039 --> 00:38:58.219
What<00:38:56.219><c> do</c><00:38:56.360><c> you</c><00:38:56.420><c> think</c><00:38:56.579><c> about</c><00:38:56.860><c> the</c><00:38:57.019><c> conditions</c><00:38:57.460><c> going</c><00:38:57.719><c> on</c><00:38:57.900><c> in</c><00:38:58.079><c> Israel?</c>

00:38:58.340 --> 00:38:59.159
Isn't<00:38:58.539><c> it</c><00:38:58.780><c> exciting?</c>

00:38:59.260 --> 00:39:00.119
Well,<00:38:59.400><c> they</c><00:38:59.480><c> might</c><00:38:59.619><c> say</c><00:38:59.760><c> it's</c><00:39:00.000><c> terrible.</c>

00:39:00.340 --> 00:39:01.500
Why<00:39:00.579><c> do</c><00:39:00.719><c> you</c><00:39:00.860><c> think</c><00:39:00.940><c> it's</c><00:39:01.199><c> exciting?</c>

00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:03.099
They<00:39:01.820><c> might</c><00:39:02.059><c> ask</c><00:39:02.400><c> you.</c>

00:39:06.360 --> 00:39:08.000
If<00:39:06.760><c> you're</c><00:39:07.159><c> full</c><00:39:07.480><c> of</c><00:39:07.639><c> the</c><00:39:07.800><c> truth,</c>

00:39:08.260 --> 00:39:09.880
out<00:39:08.360><c> of</c><00:39:08.440><c> the</c><00:39:08.599><c> abundance</c><00:39:08.739><c> of</c><00:39:08.920><c> the</c><00:39:09.059><c> heart,</c><00:39:09.440><c> Jesus</c><00:39:09.619><c> says,</c><00:39:09.860><c> the</c>

So<00:39:11.480><c> if</c><00:39:12.039><c> we</c><00:39:12.420><c> have</c><00:39:12.780><c> been</c><00:39:13.000><c> doing</c><00:39:13.119><c> our</c><00:39:13.320><c> Bible</c><00:39:13.500><c> readings</c>

00:39:15.000 --> 00:39:17.099
we<00:39:15.340><c> should</c><00:39:15.480><c> just</c><00:39:15.659><c> be</c><00:39:15.980><c> bubbling</c><00:39:16.179><c> over</c><00:39:16.440><c> with</c><00:39:16.659><c> the</c><00:39:16.860><c> truth</c>

00:39:17.099 --> 00:39:20.260

00:39:20.260 --> 00:39:20.719
of<00:39:20.519><c> us.</c>

00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:22.000
We<00:39:21.119><c> are</c><00:39:21.300><c> not</c><00:39:21.480><c> a</c><00:39:21.659><c> sun.</c>

00:39:22.360 --> 00:39:23.139

00:39:27.380 --> 00:39:29.039
And<00:39:27.559><c> I</c><00:39:27.760><c> patted</c><00:39:28.000><c> one</c><00:39:28.139><c> of</c><00:39:28.199><c> them</c><00:39:28.280><c> on</c><00:39:28.360><c> the</c><00:39:28.480><c> back</c><00:39:28.639><c> this</c><00:39:28.880><c> morning</c>

00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:29.900
and<00:39:29.260><c> I</c><00:39:29.440><c> killed</c><00:39:29.699><c> her.</c>

00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:31.800
Didn't<00:39:30.440><c> do</c><00:39:30.619><c> it</c><00:39:30.719><c> on</c><00:39:30.940><c> purpose.</c>

00:39:32.119 --> 00:39:34.000
I<00:39:32.519><c> forgot</c><00:39:32.840><c> that</c><00:39:33.039><c> she</c><00:39:33.139><c> was</c><00:39:33.320><c> so</c><00:39:33.539><c> sunburned.</c>

00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:36.159
But<00:39:34.199><c> the</c><00:39:34.360><c> point</c><00:39:34.579><c> is</c><00:39:34.840><c> we</c><00:39:35.380><c> are</c><00:39:35.699><c> a</c><00:39:35.900><c> moon.</c>

00:39:36.199 --> 00:39:39.639
We<00:39:36.519><c> reflect</c><00:39:36.940><c> the</c><00:39:37.119><c> light</c><00:39:37.260><c> of</c><00:39:37.440><c> the</c><00:39:37.619><c> sun</c><00:39:38.000><c> and</c><00:39:38.480><c> Jesus</c><00:39:38.880><c> is</c><00:39:39.159><c> the</c><00:39:39.400><c> sun.</c>

00:39:39.639 --> 00:39:42.639

00:39:42.639 --> 00:39:44.960
They<00:39:42.840><c> that</c><00:39:43.039><c> feared</c><00:39:43.199><c> the</c><00:39:43.400><c> Lord</c><00:39:43.539><c> speak</c><00:39:43.820><c> often</c><00:39:44.199><c> one</c><00:39:44.400><c> to</c><00:39:44.559><c> another,</c>

his<00:39:53.440><c> name.</c>

00:39:53.599 --> 00:39:56.820
And<00:39:53.719><c> they</c><00:39:53.940><c> shall</c><00:39:54.159><c> be</c><00:39:54.559><c> mine,</c><00:39:55.679><c> saith</c><00:39:55.840><c> the</c><00:39:56.000><c> Lord</c><00:39:56.159><c> of</c><00:39:56.340><c> the</c><00:39:56.519><c> hosts,</c>

00:40:10.179 --> 00:40:12.539

00:40:12.639 --> 00:40:16.340
We<00:40:13.000><c> now</c><00:40:13.340><c> know</c><00:40:13.559><c> that</c><00:40:13.760><c> we</c><00:40:13.880><c> need</c><00:40:14.119><c> to</c><00:40:14.800><c> get</c><00:40:15.260><c> some</c><00:40:15.519><c> godly</c><00:40:15.940><c> thoughts</c>

00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:24.840
we<00:40:21.760><c> would</c><00:40:22.059><c> like</c><00:40:22.260><c> to</c><00:40:22.440><c> interest</c><00:40:22.780><c> in</c><00:40:23.460><c> the</c><00:40:23.639><c> truth</c><00:40:23.860><c> about.</c>

And<00:40:25.400><c> just</c><00:40:25.639><c> ask</c><00:40:25.980><c> them,</c><00:40:26.340><c> what</c><00:40:26.460><c> do</c><00:40:26.579><c> they</c><00:40:26.760><c> think</c><00:40:26.920><c> about</c><00:40:27.199><c> something?</c>

00:40:28.119 --> 00:40:30.940
And<00:40:28.280><c> then</c><00:40:28.440><c> they</c><00:40:28.599><c> will</c><00:40:28.820><c> sometimes</c><00:40:29.260><c> then</c><00:40:30.039><c> ask</c><00:40:30.519><c> you,</c><00:40:30.679><c> what</c><00:40:30.800><c> do</c>

00:40:30.940 --> 00:40:31.920
you<00:40:31.139><c> think?</c>

00:40:32.019 --> 00:40:34.900
And<00:40:32.440><c> when</c><00:40:32.699><c> they</c><00:40:32.960><c> ask</c><00:40:33.239><c> you,</c><00:40:33.780><c> then</c><00:40:33.980><c> don't</c><00:40:34.300><c> talk</c><00:40:34.519><c> too</c><00:40:34.780><c> long</c>

00:40:34.900 --> 00:40:36.019
before<00:40:35.119><c> you</c><00:40:35.300><c> ask</c><00:40:35.440><c> another</c><00:40:35.639><c> question.</c>

00:40:36.099 --> 00:40:39.420
Don't<00:40:36.300><c> just</c><00:40:36.500><c> go</c><00:40:36.659><c> on</c><00:40:37.079><c> and</c><00:40:37.340><c> on</c><00:40:37.719><c> and</c><00:40:37.719><c> on</c><00:40:38.300><c> and</c><00:40:38.300><c> on</c><00:40:38.659><c> and</c><00:40:38.659><c> on.</c>

00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:42.639
But<00:40:40.480><c> just</c><00:40:40.920><c> say,</c><00:40:41.059><c> what</c><00:40:41.139><c> do</c><00:40:41.280><c> you</c><00:40:41.320><c> think</c><00:40:41.460><c> of</c><00:40:41.559><c> what</c><00:40:41.639><c> I</c><00:40:41.800><c> just</c><00:40:42.000><c> said?</c>

00:40:42.699 --> 00:40:44.360
What<00:40:42.920><c> did</c><00:40:43.280><c> you</c><00:40:43.420><c> just</c><00:40:43.659><c> say?</c>

00:40:45.739 --> 00:40:49.300
You<00:40:46.179><c> have</c><00:40:46.340><c> to</c><00:40:46.500><c> always</c><00:40:46.659><c> be</c><00:40:46.940><c> checking</c><00:40:47.099><c> on</c><00:40:47.300><c> people</c><00:40:47.559><c> that</c><00:40:47.739><c> they</c><00:40:47.980><c> listen</c><00:40:48.199><c> to</c><00:40:48.420><c> you.</c>

00:40:49.320 --> 00:40:51.639
Because<00:40:49.480><c> we</c><00:40:49.820><c> all</c><00:40:50.000><c> turn</c><00:40:50.159><c> each</c><00:40:50.360><c> other</c><00:40:50.539><c> off.</c>

00:40:51.840 --> 00:40:55.559
And<00:40:52.000><c> so</c><00:40:52.300><c> it's</c><00:40:52.559><c> important</c><00:40:52.920><c> that</c><00:40:53.820><c> we</c><00:40:54.219><c> have</c><00:40:54.420><c> their</c><00:40:54.619><c> attention.</c>

00:40:55.679 --> 00:41:00.059
If<00:40:55.900><c> you</c><00:40:56.179><c> stop</c><00:40:56.559><c> listening</c><00:40:57.320><c> before</c><00:40:58.659><c> I</c><00:40:58.840><c> stop</c><00:40:59.059><c> talking,</c>

00:41:00.099 --> 00:41:01.639
would<00:41:00.239><c> you</c><00:41:00.360><c> raise</c><00:41:00.500><c> your</c><00:41:00.699><c> hand?</c>

00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:05.980
Because<00:41:04.440><c> if</c><00:41:04.619><c> you're</c><00:41:04.840><c> not</c><00:41:05.019><c> listening,</c><00:41:05.460><c> there's</c><00:41:05.519><c> no</c><00:41:05.679><c> use</c><00:41:05.820><c> me</c>

00:41:05.980 --> 00:41:07.360
talking,<00:41:06.300><c> right?</c>

00:41:07.380 --> 00:41:10.639
And<00:41:07.579><c> so</c><00:41:07.719><c> sometimes</c><00:41:08.179><c> we</c><00:41:08.760><c> do</c><00:41:08.980><c> go</c><00:41:09.139><c> on</c><00:41:09.340><c> and</c><00:41:09.480><c> on</c><00:41:09.559><c> in</c><00:41:09.760><c> the</c><00:41:09.980><c> audience,</c>

00:41:12.820 --> 00:41:17.400
So<00:41:12.980><c> the</c><00:41:13.099><c> point</c><00:41:13.320><c> is,</c><00:41:14.900><c> we</c><00:41:15.179><c> have</c><00:41:15.460><c> a</c><00:41:16.119><c> happy</c><00:41:16.400><c> life.</c>

00:41:18.139 --> 00:41:21.039
The<00:41:18.739><c> best</c><00:41:19.039><c> life</c><00:41:19.360><c> is</c><00:41:19.579><c> the</c><00:41:19.699><c> life</c><00:41:19.840><c> in</c><00:41:20.000><c> the</c><00:41:20.179><c> truth.</c>

00:41:21.320 --> 00:41:24.840
The<00:41:21.420><c> life</c><00:41:21.619><c> of</c><00:41:21.820><c> serving</c><00:41:22.019><c> God</c><00:41:22.400><c> is</c><00:41:22.860><c> the</c><00:41:23.039><c> life</c><00:41:23.179><c> with</c><00:41:23.380><c> no</c><00:41:23.619><c> side</c><00:41:23.920><c> effects.</c>

00:41:24.860 --> 00:41:27.599
Just<00:41:25.179><c> good</c><00:41:26.559><c> results.</c>

00:41:28.599 --> 00:41:31.099
So<00:41:28.780><c> Nehemiah</c><00:41:29.260><c> has</c><00:41:29.500><c> come</c><00:41:30.119><c> back.</c>

00:41:31.480 --> 00:41:33.280
He<00:41:31.940><c> cleansed</c><00:41:32.900><c> them.</c>

00:41:33.719 --> 00:41:36.139
