eloquent<00:07:22.800><c> and</c><00:07:22.959><c> gifted</c><00:07:23.259><c> speaker</c><00:07:23.579><c> and</c><00:07:23.779><c> not</c><00:07:23.980><c> Paul?</c>

00:07:24.100 --> 00:07:26.639
Why<00:07:24.240><c> didn't</c><00:07:24.420><c> God</c><00:07:24.600><c> give</c><00:07:24.839><c> Paul</c><00:07:25.120><c> all</c><00:07:25.379><c> those</c><00:07:25.579><c> abilities?</c>

00:07:26.819 --> 00:07:28.139
Make<00:07:27.000><c> sense?</c>

00:07:29.300 --> 00:07:30.480
Different<00:07:29.560><c> gifts</c><00:07:29.779><c> to</c><00:07:29.939><c> different</c><00:07:30.139><c> people?</c>

00:07:30.699 --> 00:07:32.740
Yeah,<00:07:32.240><c> sure.</c>

00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:36.300
The<00:07:33.639><c> better</c><00:07:34.019><c> speaker</c><00:07:34.319><c> helps</c><00:07:34.740><c> to</c><00:07:34.980><c> identify</c><00:07:35.439><c> those</c><00:07:35.899><c> that</c><00:07:36.079><c> are</c>

00:07:36.300 --> 00:07:37.720
important<00:07:36.519><c> to</c><00:07:36.860><c> the</c><00:07:37.060><c> speaker.</c>

00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:39.019
Yes.

00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:41.540
It's<00:07:39.439><c> more</c><00:07:39.439><c> complex</c><00:07:41.180><c> manner.</c>

00:07:41.899 --> 00:07:42.819
Yep.

00:07:42.899 --> 00:07:48.279
So<00:07:43.120><c> people</c><00:07:43.860><c> aren't</c><00:07:44.279><c> attracted</c><00:07:44.560><c> by</c><00:07:45.019><c> just</c><00:07:45.579><c> the</c><00:07:46.079><c> eloquence</c><00:07:47.959><c> of</c>

00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:49.079
the<00:07:48.319><c> speaker</c><00:07:48.620><c> you</c><00:07:48.980><c> draw.</c>

00:07:49.079 --> 00:07:49.420
Yep.

00:07:49.500 --> 00:07:51.240
It's<00:07:49.779><c> the</c><00:07:49.920><c> message</c><00:07:50.240><c> to</c><00:07:50.519><c> the</c><00:07:50.660><c> people.</c>

00:07:51.420 --> 00:07:52.620
It's<00:07:51.740><c> the</c><00:07:51.860><c> message,</c><00:07:52.180><c> absolutely.</c>

00:07:52.620 --> 00:07:54.500
Totally<00:07:53.160><c> agree</c><00:07:53.439><c> with</c><00:07:53.579><c> all</c><00:07:53.759><c> that?</c>

00:07:54.819 --> 00:07:55.839
Libby?

00:07:56.779 --> 00:07:57.420
Yep.

00:07:58.740 --> 00:08:00.040
Yes,<00:07:59.139><c> excellent.</c>

00:08:03.819 --> 00:08:04.379
Libby?

00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:05.660
Awesome.

00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:06.000
Yeah.

00:08:06.459 --> 00:08:08.680
There's<00:08:06.639><c> one</c><00:08:06.899><c> thing</c><00:08:07.100><c> that</c><00:08:07.279><c> still</c><00:08:07.459><c> hasn't</c><00:08:07.680><c> been</c><00:08:07.899><c> mentioned.</c>

00:08:09.279 --> 00:08:10.620
I<00:08:09.620><c> think</c><00:08:09.800><c> it's</c><00:08:10.060><c> the</c><00:08:10.120><c> real</c><00:08:10.259><c> reason.</c>

00:08:11.100 --> 00:08:11.959
Keep<00:08:11.379><c> Paul</c><00:08:11.660><c> humble.</c>

00:08:12.040 --> 00:08:13.160
Keep<00:08:12.339><c> Paul</c><00:08:12.519><c> humble,</c><00:08:13.160><c> yep.</c>

00:08:13.300 --> 00:08:13.500
Yep.

00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:16.740
They're<00:08:14.259><c> all</c><00:08:14.560><c> certainly</c><00:08:14.899><c> very</c><00:08:15.240><c> good</c><00:08:15.379><c> elements</c><00:08:15.740><c> in</c><00:08:15.920><c> it,</c><00:08:16.060><c> brothers</c><00:08:16.180><c> and</c><00:08:16.420><c> sisters.</c>

00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:20.500
But<00:08:17.399><c> hopefully,</c><00:08:18.259><c> what</c><00:08:18.379><c> I'm</c><00:08:18.540><c> about</c><00:08:18.740><c> to</c><00:08:18.980><c> suggest,</c><00:08:19.439><c> it</c><00:08:19.500><c> was</c><00:08:19.600><c> God's</c><00:08:19.899><c> viewpoint</c><00:08:20.300><c> on</c>

00:08:20.500 --> 00:08:21.000
the<00:08:20.680><c> subject.</c>

00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:23.060
What<00:08:21.500><c> is</c><00:08:21.839><c> Paul's</c><00:08:22.300><c> work?</c>

00:08:23.339 --> 00:08:25.779
Paul's<00:08:23.779><c> work</c><00:08:24.040><c> was</c><00:08:24.300><c> not</c><00:08:24.420><c> to</c><00:08:24.639><c> run</c><00:08:24.759><c> around</c><00:08:25.019><c> the</c><00:08:25.199><c> Ecclesia</c><00:08:25.500><c> as</c><00:08:25.639><c> a</c>

00:08:25.779 --> 00:08:26.300
great<00:08:25.959><c> speaker.</c>

00:08:26.699 --> 00:08:29.480
Paul's<00:08:27.120><c> work</c><00:08:27.339><c> was</c><00:08:27.579><c> confined</c><00:08:28.000><c> to</c><00:08:28.180><c> writing</c><00:08:28.439><c> letters.</c>

00:08:29.660 --> 00:08:32.080
That's<00:08:29.980><c> why</c><00:08:30.180><c> God</c><00:08:30.339><c> put</c><00:08:30.519><c> him</c><00:08:30.680><c> in</c><00:08:30.819><c> prison</c><00:08:30.980><c> for</c><00:08:31.199><c> so</c><00:08:31.379><c> much</c><00:08:31.519><c> of</c><00:08:31.660><c> his</c><00:08:31.779><c> life.</c>

00:08:32.500 --> 00:08:35.399
That's<00:08:32.720><c> why</c><00:08:32.860><c> God</c><00:08:33.179><c> put</c><00:08:33.460><c> him</c><00:08:33.600><c> in</c><00:08:33.679><c> a</c><00:08:33.840><c> prison</c><00:08:34.019><c> for</c><00:08:34.240><c> around</c><00:08:34.559><c> 30</c><00:08:34.919><c>%</c><00:08:35.240><c> of</c>

00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:36.259
his<00:08:35.600><c> preaching</c><00:08:35.860><c> life,</c>

00:08:36.500 --> 00:08:39.620
so<00:08:36.639><c> he</c><00:08:36.740><c> could</c><00:08:37.019><c> sit</c><00:08:37.220><c> in</c><00:08:37.480><c> prison</c><00:08:37.720><c> and</c><00:08:37.980><c> write</c><00:08:38.159><c> letters,</c><00:08:38.899><c> not</c><00:08:39.259><c> just</c>

00:08:39.620 --> 00:08:41.139
for<00:08:39.860><c> his</c><00:08:40.120><c> generation.</c>

00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:44.700
You<00:08:41.320><c> know,</c><00:08:41.399><c> there's</c><00:08:41.600><c> no</c><00:08:41.820><c> tapes,</c><00:08:42.519><c> there's</c><00:08:42.740><c> no</c><00:08:43.000><c> CDs</c><00:08:43.320><c> of</c><00:08:43.539><c> Paul's</c><00:08:43.940><c> talks.</c>

00:08:44.940 --> 00:08:46.019
We<00:08:45.100><c> don't</c><00:08:45.279><c> have</c><00:08:45.419><c> them.</c>

00:08:46.019 --> 00:08:49.759
You<00:08:46.659><c> know,</c><00:08:47.279><c> as</c><00:08:47.360><c> fantastic</c><00:08:48.100><c> a</c><00:08:48.340><c> speaker</c><00:08:48.720><c> as</c><00:08:49.139><c> Apollos</c><00:08:49.399><c> was,</c>

00:08:49.940 --> 00:08:51.559
we<00:08:50.200><c> cannot</c><00:08:50.519><c> go</c><00:08:50.779><c> and</c><00:08:50.879><c> listen</c><00:08:51.019><c> to</c><00:08:51.159><c> what</c><00:08:51.279><c> he</c><00:08:51.399><c> said.</c>

00:08:51.779 --> 00:08:54.220
I'd<00:08:52.259><c> love</c><00:08:52.460><c> to</c><00:08:52.639><c> know</c><00:08:52.740><c> how</c><00:08:52.899><c> he</c><00:08:53.120><c> presented</c><00:08:53.360><c> the</c><00:08:53.659><c> fundamentals</c><00:08:54.039><c> of</c>

00:08:54.220 --> 00:08:55.259
the<00:08:54.379><c> truth,</c><00:08:54.799><c> wouldn't</c><00:08:54.960><c> you?</c>

00:08:55.340 --> 00:08:58.340
I'm<00:08:55.559><c> sure</c><00:08:55.779><c> our</c><00:08:56.019><c> GS</c><00:08:56.240><c> would</c><00:08:56.440><c> be</c><00:08:56.779><c> rapt</c><00:08:57.120><c> if</c><00:08:57.480><c> they</c><00:08:57.759><c> knew</c><00:08:57.960><c> the</c><00:08:58.159><c> way</c>

00:08:58.340 --> 00:08:59.519
that<00:08:58.559><c> Apollos</c><00:08:58.840><c> spoke</c><00:08:59.080><c> the</c><00:08:59.340><c> truth.</c>

00:08:59.720 --> 00:09:02.860
After<00:09:00.100><c> all,</c><00:09:00.639><c> he</c><00:09:00.639><c> had</c><00:09:01.779><c> an</c><00:09:02.019><c> incredible</c><00:09:02.379><c> ability.</c>

00:09:12.580 --> 00:09:13.259
what<00:09:12.700><c> God</c><00:09:12.879><c> wanted.</c>

00:09:13.259 --> 00:09:16.419

we'd<00:09:40.019><c> have</c><00:09:40.259><c> no</c><00:09:40.659><c> idea</c><00:09:41.379><c> what</c><00:09:42.039><c> Paul's</c><00:09:42.500><c> preaching</c><00:09:42.759><c> encompassed.</c>

00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:46.720
So<00:09:44.759><c> it</c><00:09:44.779><c> was</c><00:09:45.019><c> the</c><00:09:45.100><c> will</c><00:09:45.200><c> of</c><00:09:45.399><c> God,</c><00:09:45.740><c> I</c><00:09:45.879><c> clearly</c><00:09:46.220><c> believe,</c>

00:09:47.059 --> 00:09:50.379
that<00:09:47.460><c> God</c><00:09:47.720><c> chose</c><00:09:48.080><c> him</c><00:09:48.679><c> to</c><00:09:49.059><c> be</c><00:09:49.179><c> the</c><00:09:49.340><c> one</c><00:09:49.460><c> who</c><00:09:49.600><c> would</c><00:09:49.799><c> spend</c><00:09:50.059><c> so</c>

00:09:50.379 --> 00:09:51.340
much<00:09:50.539><c> time</c><00:09:50.779><c> in</c><00:09:50.980><c> prison,</c>

00:09:51.659 --> 00:09:54.240
who<00:09:51.740><c> would</c><00:09:51.980><c> write</c><00:09:52.200><c> for</c><00:09:52.399><c> people</c><00:09:52.659><c> of</c><00:09:52.840><c> all</c><00:09:53.059><c> time</c><00:09:53.320><c> and</c><00:09:53.740><c> not</c><00:09:53.980><c> just</c>

00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:55.279

00:09:55.539 --> 00:09:57.279
which<00:09:55.700><c> is</c><00:09:56.019><c> exactly</c><00:09:56.480><c> what</c><00:09:56.740><c> Apollos</c><00:09:57.019><c> did.</c>

00:09:57.779 --> 00:09:59.639
Apollos<00:09:58.179><c> could</c><00:09:58.419><c> only</c><00:09:58.720><c> serve</c><00:09:58.940><c> his</c><00:09:59.120><c> generation,</c>

00:09:59.899 --> 00:10:03.720
because<00:10:00.220><c> we</c><00:10:00.419><c> have</c><00:10:00.620><c> none</c><00:10:00.879><c> of</c><00:10:01.100><c> his</c><00:10:01.360><c> writings</c><00:10:01.720><c> on</c><00:10:02.320><c> record</c><00:10:02.960><c> at</c><00:10:03.419><c> all.</c>

00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:09.000
It<00:10:04.639><c> would</c><00:10:05.360><c> be</c><00:10:05.539><c> fantastic</c><00:10:06.019><c> if</c><00:10:06.220><c> we</c><00:10:06.320><c> did,</c><00:10:07.220><c> but</c><00:10:07.940><c> God</c><00:10:08.320><c> chose</c><00:10:08.679><c> to</c><00:10:08.799><c> do</c>

00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:09.700

00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:12.259
and<00:10:09.840><c> God</c><00:10:10.019><c> chose</c><00:10:10.320><c> Paul</c><00:10:10.539><c> to</c><00:10:10.740><c> be</c><00:10:10.860><c> the</c><00:10:11.000><c> one</c><00:10:11.399><c> who</c><00:10:11.559><c> would</c><00:10:11.799><c> write</c><00:10:12.039><c> for</c>

00:10:14.860 --> 00:10:17.240
So<00:10:14.960><c> there's</c><00:10:15.220><c> Apollos,</c><00:10:15.980><c> and</c><00:10:16.039><c> he's</c><00:10:16.299><c> talking</c><00:10:16.580><c> to</c><00:10:16.740><c> people</c><00:10:17.000><c> over</c>

00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:17.860
there<00:10:17.480><c> in</c><00:10:17.679><c> Corinth</c>

00:10:17.860 --> 00:10:22.139
that<00:10:18.299><c> Paul</c><00:10:18.620><c> had</c><00:10:18.840><c> only</c><00:10:19.279><c> just,</c><00:10:20.080><c> very</c><00:10:20.539><c> recently,</c><00:10:21.340><c> instructed</c><00:10:21.679><c> in</c>

00:10:22.139 --> 00:10:23.200
the<00:10:22.360><c> fundamentals</c><00:10:22.720><c> of</c><00:10:22.899><c> the</c><00:10:23.059><c> truth.</c>

00:10:23.440 --> 00:10:27.799
He'd<00:10:23.860><c> just</c><00:10:24.139><c> baptised</c><00:10:24.700><c> them,</c><00:10:25.320><c> he</c><00:10:25.679><c> leaves,</c><00:10:26.559><c> and</c><00:10:26.700><c> Apollos</c><00:10:27.179><c> arrives.</c>

00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:31.120
Now,<00:10:28.279><c> where's</c><00:10:28.559><c> Paul?</c><00:10:28.899><c> Come</c><00:10:29.139><c> back</c><00:10:29.440><c> to</c><00:10:29.740><c> Acts</c><00:10:29.940><c> 19.</c>

00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:34.620
Paul<00:10:33.080><c> baptises</c><00:10:33.600><c> these</c><00:10:33.840><c> people</c><00:10:34.100><c> in</c><00:10:34.399><c> Corinth.</c>

00:10:35.100 --> 00:10:38.100
He<00:10:35.340><c> leaves,</c><00:10:35.899><c> he</c><00:10:35.980><c> heads</c><00:10:36.139><c> back</c><00:10:36.919><c> to</c><00:10:37.100><c> Jerusalem.</c>

00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:40.700
Apollos<00:10:39.000><c> heads</c><00:10:39.240><c> over</c><00:10:39.500><c> to</c><00:10:39.639><c> Corinth.</c>

00:10:41.620 --> 00:10:43.820
And<00:10:41.639><c> when</c><00:10:41.860><c> Apollos</c><00:10:42.179><c> arrives</c><00:10:42.500><c> in</c><00:10:42.639><c> Corinth,</c><00:10:43.179><c> where</c><00:10:43.320><c> is</c><00:10:43.539><c> Paul?</c>

00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:49.259
Paul<00:10:46.399><c> passed</c><00:10:46.759><c> through</c><00:10:46.960><c> the</c><00:10:47.139><c> upper</c><00:10:47.379><c> coasts</c><00:10:47.879><c> and</c><00:10:47.899><c> came</c><00:10:48.139><c> to</c><00:10:48.340><c> Ephesus</c><00:10:48.799><c> and</c>

00:10:49.259 --> 00:10:51.519
found<00:10:49.759><c> certain</c><00:10:50.419><c> disciples.</c>

00:10:52.100 --> 00:10:56.159
So<00:10:52.299><c> as</c><00:10:52.480><c> Apollos</c><00:10:52.779><c> arrives</c><00:10:53.100><c> in</c><00:10:53.320><c> Corinth,</c><00:10:54.120><c> Paul</c><00:10:54.360><c> arrives</c><00:10:54.740><c> in</c><00:10:55.000><c> Ephesus.</c>

00:10:56.759 --> 00:10:59.159

Let's<00:17:20.059><c> just</c><00:17:20.539><c> briefly</c><00:17:20.880><c> summarize</c><00:17:21.319><c> what</c><00:17:21.599><c> happened.</c>

00:17:22.180 --> 00:17:25.220
Paul<00:17:22.380><c> arrives</c><00:17:22.740><c> in</c><00:17:22.960><c> Ephesus,</c><00:17:23.859><c> finds</c><00:17:24.079><c> some</c><00:17:24.299><c> brothers</c><00:17:24.539><c> and</c><00:17:24.799><c> sisters</c>

00:17:25.220 --> 00:17:28.160
who<00:17:25.859><c> haven't</c><00:17:26.119><c> heard</c><00:17:26.339><c> of</c><00:17:26.480><c> the</c><00:17:26.640><c> Holy</c><00:17:26.819><c> Spirit,</c><00:17:27.440><c> and</c><00:17:27.640><c> he</c><00:17:27.799><c> says</c><00:17:27.980><c> to</c><00:17:28.079><c> them,</c>

00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:30.900

00:17:35.140 --> 00:17:38.839
Therefore,<00:17:35.519><c> you</c><00:17:35.539><c> need</c><00:17:35.779><c> to</c><00:17:35.940><c> be</c><00:17:36.779><c> re</c><00:17:36.920><c>-baptized</c><00:17:37.619><c> in</c><00:17:37.960><c> order</c><00:17:38.180><c> to</c><00:17:38.339><c> be</c><00:17:38.539><c> saved.</c>

00:17:39.200 --> 00:17:42.279
The<00:17:39.259><c> question</c><00:17:39.579><c> is,</c><00:17:40.200><c> does</c><00:17:40.400><c> this</c><00:17:40.700><c> passage</c><00:17:40.960><c> reveal</c><00:17:41.519><c> that</c><00:17:41.900><c> John's</c>

00:17:46.460 --> 00:17:48.460

00:17:52.420 --> 00:17:55.279
John<00:17:53.140><c> wasn't</c><00:17:53.559><c> saved</c><00:17:53.960><c> because</c><00:17:54.180><c> it</c><00:17:54.619><c> wasn't</c><00:17:55.259><c> effective.</c>

00:17:55.359 --> 00:18:00.460
John<00:17:55.440><c> wasn't</c><00:17:58.859><c> saved</c><00:17:59.079><c> because</c><00:17:59.180><c> it</c><00:17:59.180><c> wasn't</c><00:17:59.319><c> effective.</c>

00:18:02.460 --> 00:18:05.619

00:18:07.180 --> 00:18:09.940
So,<00:18:08.799><c> I</c><00:18:09.019><c> apologize.</c>

00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:15.500
Maybe<00:18:10.380><c> some</c><00:18:10.599><c> of</c><00:18:10.779><c> you</c><00:18:10.900><c> just</c><00:18:11.099><c> have</c><00:18:11.279><c> to</c><00:18:11.619><c> say</c><00:18:12.680><c> the</c><00:18:12.980><c> new</c><00:18:13.160><c> angels</c><00:18:13.500><c> don't</c><00:18:13.900><c> come</c><00:18:14.500><c> to</c><00:18:14.519><c> baptism.</c>

00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:18.539
Maybe<00:18:16.039><c> some</c><00:18:16.420><c> of</c><00:18:16.420><c> you</c><00:18:16.660><c> don't</c><00:18:16.720><c> say</c><00:18:16.940><c> they're</c><00:18:17.200><c> not</c><00:18:17.359><c> able</c><00:18:18.119><c> to</c><00:18:18.380><c> come</c>

00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:21.319

00:18:21.619 --> 00:18:25.000
I<00:18:22.019><c> understand</c><00:18:22.180><c> that</c><00:18:22.539><c> this</c><00:18:22.740><c> is</c><00:18:22.740><c> only</c><00:18:23.019><c> for</c><00:18:23.500><c> the</c><00:18:24.799><c> people.</c>

00:18:25.319 --> 00:18:26.660
It's<00:18:25.359><c> not</c><00:18:25.559><c> for</c><00:18:25.740><c> the</c><00:18:25.960><c> initial</c><00:18:26.240><c> students.</c>

00:18:27.099 --> 00:18:30.599
So<00:18:27.660><c> I</c><00:18:27.740><c> think</c><00:18:27.960><c> you</c><00:18:28.160><c> have</c><00:18:28.319><c> to</c><00:18:28.599><c> really</c><00:18:29.039><c> distinguish</c><00:18:29.640><c> between</c><00:18:30.180><c> the</c>

00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:32.140

00:18:32.140 --> 00:18:33.039
and<00:18:33.039><c> the</c><00:18:33.039><c> person</c><00:18:33.039><c> you're</c><00:18:33.039><c> going</c><00:18:33.039><c> to</c><00:18:33.039><c> be</c><00:18:33.039><c> baptized</c><00:18:33.039><c> in.</c>

00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:34.980
So<00:18:33.039><c> that's</c><00:18:33.559><c> the</c><00:18:33.619><c> different</c><00:18:34.019><c> parts.</c>

00:18:35.299 --> 00:18:37.839
And<00:18:35.299><c> the</c><00:18:35.559><c> experience</c><00:18:35.900><c> required</c><00:18:36.599><c> to</c><00:18:37.000><c> be</c><00:18:37.259><c> baptized,</c>

00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:41.200
and<00:18:38.240><c> if</c><00:18:38.359><c> they</c><00:18:38.680><c> die,</c><00:18:39.200><c> the</c><00:18:39.500><c> experience</c><00:18:39.640><c> is</c><00:18:40.279><c> dead.</c>

00:18:41.339 --> 00:18:43.640
And<00:18:41.460><c> that's</c><00:18:41.819><c> just</c><00:18:41.940><c> in</c><00:18:42.119><c> the</c><00:18:42.160><c> genre</c><00:18:42.380><c> of</c><00:18:42.660><c> the</c><00:18:42.779><c> experience.</c>

00:18:45.339 --> 00:18:48.400
Okay,<00:18:45.980><c> so</c><00:18:46.460><c> we've</c><00:18:46.539><c> probably</c><00:18:46.759><c> had</c><00:18:46.980><c> three</c><00:18:47.319><c> different</c><00:18:47.619><c> viewpoints</c><00:18:48.019><c> expressed</c>

00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:49.559
so<00:18:48.700><c> far.</c>

00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:50.880
That's<00:18:50.019><c> great.</c>

00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:52.339
Any<00:18:51.359><c> more?</c>

00:18:53.799 --> 00:18:56.119
Anyone<00:18:54.140><c> else</c><00:18:54.359><c> got</c><00:18:54.539><c> another</c><00:18:54.819><c> thought</c><00:18:55.019><c> on</c><00:18:55.180><c> it?</c>

00:18:56.180 --> 00:18:57.579
Or<00:18:56.380><c> we'll</c><00:18:56.539><c> keep</c><00:18:56.740><c> going.</c>

00:18:59.619 --> 00:19:01.220
Okay,<00:19:00.319><c> let's</c><00:19:00.539><c> just</c><00:19:00.740><c> keep</c><00:19:00.940><c> going.</c>

00:19:01.539 --> 00:19:03.819
Now<00:19:01.599><c> there's</c><00:19:01.859><c> absolutely</c><00:19:02.259><c> no</c><00:19:02.500><c> evidence</c><00:19:02.900><c> in</c><00:19:03.180><c> this</c><00:19:03.440><c> section</c>

00:19:03.819 --> 00:19:07.819
that<00:19:04.279><c> these</c><00:19:04.720><c> disciples</c><00:19:05.359><c> were</c><00:19:06.319><c> disciples</c><00:19:06.980><c> of</c><00:19:07.319><c> Apollos.</c>

00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:11.000
Although<00:19:08.480><c> it</c><00:19:08.740><c> seems</c><00:19:09.220><c> that</c><00:19:09.460><c> they</c><00:19:09.660><c> believed</c><00:19:10.220><c> exactly</c><00:19:10.779><c> what</c>

00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:11.680
Apollos<00:19:11.299><c> did,</c>

00:19:11.859 --> 00:19:13.920
because<00:19:12.000><c> Apollos,</c><00:19:12.519><c> you</c><00:19:12.519><c> remember,</c><00:19:13.039><c> as</c><00:19:13.099><c> Ben's</c><00:19:13.400><c> identified,</c>

00:19:14.180 --> 00:19:16.299
Acts<00:19:14.339><c> chapter</c><00:19:14.500><c> 18</c><00:19:14.960><c> and</c><00:19:15.180><c> verse</c><00:19:15.400><c> 25</c><00:19:15.960><c> says,</c>

00:19:16.779 --> 00:19:18.680
this<00:19:16.819><c> man</c><00:19:17.119><c> was</c><00:19:17.359><c> instructed</c><00:19:17.799><c> in</c><00:19:17.980><c> the</c><00:19:18.059><c> way</c><00:19:18.220><c> of</c><00:19:18.319><c> the</c><00:19:18.460><c> Lord,</c>

00:19:18.900 --> 00:19:20.000
he<00:19:18.980><c> was</c><00:19:19.220><c> fervent</c><00:19:19.460><c> in</c><00:19:19.599><c> the</c><00:19:19.839><c> Spirit,</c>

00:19:20.220 --> 00:19:22.579
he<00:19:20.440><c> spoke</c><00:19:20.680><c> diligently</c><00:19:21.240><c> the</c><00:19:21.720><c> things</c><00:19:21.960><c> of</c><00:19:22.099><c> Jesus,</c>

00:19:22.819 --> 00:19:24.619
knowing<00:19:23.079><c> only</c><00:19:23.539><c> the</c><00:19:23.759><c> baptism</c><00:19:24.119><c> of</c><00:19:24.279><c> John.</c>

00:19:24.619 --> 00:19:27.980
Now<00:19:25.059><c> it</c><00:19:25.220><c> seems</c><00:19:25.619><c> to</c><00:19:25.799><c> suggest</c><00:19:26.140><c> that</c><00:19:26.660><c> these</c><00:19:26.839><c> men</c><00:19:27.019><c> in</c><00:19:27.180><c> Acts</c><00:19:27.359><c> chapter</c><00:19:27.559><c> 19</c>

00:19:27.980 --> 00:19:29.880
are<00:19:28.220><c> in</c><00:19:28.359><c> exactly</c><00:19:28.799><c> the</c><00:19:29.000><c> same</c><00:19:29.180><c> situation.</c>

00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:31.660
Now<00:19:30.480><c> that</c><00:19:30.700><c> might</c><00:19:30.980><c> be</c><00:19:31.200><c> the</c><00:19:31.339><c> case,</c>

00:19:31.859 --> 00:19:34.319
but<00:19:31.960><c> there's</c><00:19:32.220><c> no</c><00:19:32.460><c> indication</c><00:19:33.000><c> anywhere,</c><00:19:33.720><c> brothers</c><00:19:33.799><c> and</c><00:19:34.019><c> sisters,</c>

00:19:34.619 --> 00:19:38.119
that<00:19:34.759><c> these</c><00:19:35.059><c> men</c><00:19:35.259><c> are</c><00:19:35.539><c> followers</c><00:19:36.039><c> of</c><00:19:36.519><c> Apollos</c><00:19:36.900><c> himself.</c>

00:19:38.599 --> 00:19:41.819
These<00:19:38.880><c> people</c><00:19:39.339><c> are</c><00:19:39.759><c> probably</c><00:19:40.099><c> floating</c><00:19:40.559><c> disciples</c><00:19:41.180><c> of</c><00:19:41.619><c> John</c>

00:19:41.819 --> 00:19:42.279
the<00:19:41.960><c> Baptist</c>

00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:43.900
who<00:19:42.740><c> drifted</c><00:19:43.140><c> into</c><00:19:43.420><c> Ephesus,</c>

00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:46.440
and<00:19:44.440><c> Paul</c><00:19:44.740><c> happened</c><00:19:45.099><c> to</c><00:19:45.460><c> chance</c><00:19:45.859><c> upon</c><00:19:46.200><c> them.</c>

00:19:46.599 --> 00:19:51.200
He<00:19:46.880><c> finds</c><00:19:47.420><c> just</c><00:19:47.960><c> chances</c><00:19:48.359><c> upon</c><00:19:49.259><c> these</c><00:19:49.759><c> certain</c><00:19:50.140><c> disciples.</c>

00:19:51.359 --> 00:19:54.299
Now<00:19:51.740><c> I</c><00:19:51.960><c> can</c><00:19:52.240><c> see</c><00:19:52.380><c> Paul</c><00:19:52.640><c> just</c><00:19:53.039><c> standing</c><00:19:53.299><c> there</c><00:19:53.599><c> in</c><00:19:53.779><c> Ephesus</c>

00:19:54.299 --> 00:19:56.500
wherever<00:19:54.799><c> he</c><00:19:55.039><c> stood</c><00:19:55.240><c> at</c><00:19:55.400><c> this</c><00:19:55.579><c> point</c><00:19:55.799><c> in</c><00:19:56.000><c> time,</c>

00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:25.259
Jesus<00:20:23.359><c> of</c><00:20:23.559><c> Nazareth</c><00:20:23.900><c> has</c><00:20:24.119><c> been</c><00:20:24.319><c> and</c><00:20:24.519><c> gone?</c>

00:20:25.579 --> 00:20:26.779

00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:29.619
We<00:20:27.099><c> had</c><00:20:27.380><c> no</c><00:20:27.619><c> idea</c><00:20:28.099><c> that</c><00:20:28.299><c> Jesus</c><00:20:28.599><c> of</c><00:20:28.740><c> Nazareth</c><00:20:29.039><c> had</c><00:20:29.180><c> been</c><00:20:29.380><c> and</c><00:20:29.519><c> gone.</c>

00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:47.140
Now<00:20:45.539><c> it</c><00:20:45.539><c> was</c><00:20:45.740><c> almost</c><00:20:45.960><c> like,</c><00:20:46.420><c> I</c><00:20:46.599><c> think</c><00:20:46.720><c> about</c><00:20:46.960><c> it,</c>

00:20:54.180 --> 00:20:54.619
haven't<00:20:54.279><c> they?</c>

00:20:55.099 --> 00:20:56.759
Things<00:20:55.319><c> have</c><00:20:55.559><c> changed.</c><00:20:56.079><c> That's</c><00:20:56.319><c> what</c><00:20:56.480><c> it's</c><00:20:56.660><c> like.</c>

00:20:56.819 --> 00:20:57.819
They<00:20:57.039><c> hadn't</c><00:20:57.420><c> heard.</c>

00:20:58.059 --> 00:21:04.079
They<00:20:58.200><c> hadn't</c><00:20:58.599><c> understood</c><00:20:59.259><c> the</c><00:21:01.119><c> fact</c><00:21:01.440><c> that</c><00:21:01.640><c> Jesus</c><00:21:02.000><c> of</c><00:21:02.180><c> Nazareth</c><00:21:02.619><c> had</c><00:21:02.980><c> died</c>

00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:06.140

00:21:12.819 --> 00:21:14.400
Now,<00:21:13.000><c> it's</c><00:21:13.099><c> not</c><00:21:13.220><c> as</c><00:21:13.380><c> though</c><00:21:13.480><c> Paul</c><00:21:13.640><c> would</c><00:21:13.799><c> have</c><00:21:13.900><c> walked</c><00:21:14.079><c> around</c>

00:21:17.059 --> 00:21:19.619
I<00:21:17.200><c> don't</c><00:21:17.339><c> think</c><00:21:17.400><c> it</c><00:21:17.480><c> was</c><00:21:17.640><c> a</c><00:21:17.819><c> question</c><00:21:18.059><c> that</c><00:21:18.279><c> Paul</c><00:21:18.500><c> would</c><00:21:18.680><c> have</c><00:21:18.880><c> asked</c>

00:21:23.559 --> 00:21:25.940
I<00:21:23.640><c> think</c><00:21:23.779><c> it</c><00:21:23.920><c> would</c><00:21:24.059><c> have</c><00:21:24.140><c> come</c><00:21:24.299><c> up</c><00:21:24.460><c> in</c><00:21:24.660><c> conversation,</c><00:21:25.380><c> brothers</c><00:21:25.460><c> and</c><00:21:25.700><c> sisters,</c>

00:21:33.660 --> 00:21:35.500
Let<00:21:33.960><c> me</c><00:21:34.160><c> say</c><00:21:34.319><c> that</c><00:21:34.500><c> again.</c>

00:21:35.980 --> 00:21:38.839
Paul<00:21:36.140><c> came</c><00:21:36.400><c> to</c><00:21:36.559><c> the</c><00:21:36.720><c> conclusion</c><00:21:37.240><c> that</c><00:21:37.880><c> these</c><00:21:38.259><c> people</c><00:21:38.539><c> here</c>

00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:41.319

00:26:06.180 --> 00:26:10.200
Because<00:26:06.619><c> John</c><00:26:07.059><c> was</c><00:26:07.819><c> the</c><00:26:07.980><c> end</c><00:26:08.119><c> of</c><00:26:08.299><c> the</c><00:26:08.480><c> law</c><00:26:08.859><c> and</c><00:26:09.559><c> all</c><00:26:09.819><c> they</c><00:26:10.019><c> knew</c>

00:26:20.980 --> 00:26:22.519

00:26:36.460 --> 00:26:41.299
There<00:26:36.539><c> would</c><00:26:36.720><c> be</c><00:26:37.259><c> serious</c><00:26:38.019><c> lacking</c><00:26:38.640><c> and</c><00:26:39.299><c> insufficient</c><00:26:39.900><c> knowledge</c><00:26:40.400><c> in</c><00:26:40.940><c> people</c>

It's<00:27:37.140><c> seriously</c><00:27:37.480><c> lacking,</c><00:27:37.819><c> therefore</c><00:27:38.319><c> you</c><00:27:38.759><c> need</c><00:27:39.059><c> to</c><00:27:39.259><c> be</c><00:27:39.500><c> re</c><00:27:39.579><c>-baptized.</c>

00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:44.400
The<00:27:41.900><c> concept</c><00:27:42.240><c> that</c><00:27:42.440><c> John's</c><00:27:42.819><c> baptism</c><00:27:43.079><c> was</c><00:27:43.319><c> not</c><00:27:43.500><c> enough</c><00:27:43.720><c> for</c><00:27:43.960><c> salvation,</c>

00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:47.900
I<00:27:45.140><c> think</c><00:27:45.319><c> this</c><00:27:45.480><c> is</c><00:27:45.660><c> the</c><00:27:45.759><c> only</c><00:27:45.980><c> passage</c><00:27:46.339><c> on</c><00:27:46.539><c> which</c><00:27:46.720><c> we</c><00:27:46.920><c> base</c><00:27:47.140><c> this</c><00:27:47.539><c> and</c>

00:27:47.900 --> 00:27:50.259
I<00:27:48.039><c> think</c><00:27:48.180><c> it's</c><00:27:48.759><c> easier</c><00:27:49.119><c> to</c><00:27:49.480><c> understand</c><00:27:49.940><c> it</c>

00:27:50.259 --> 00:27:53.980

00:27:56.039 --> 00:27:58.619

Not<00:27:59.000><c> at</c><00:27:59.240><c> all</c><00:27:59.420><c> because</c><00:27:59.740><c> John's</c><00:28:00.180><c> was</c><00:28:00.319><c> insufficient,</c>

00:31:44.339 --> 00:31:46.160

00:31:57.599 --> 00:31:59.019
it<00:31:57.859><c> might</c><00:31:58.059><c> be</c><00:31:58.259><c> a</c><00:31:58.339><c> sticky</c><00:31:58.500><c> situation.</c>

00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:08.519
if<00:32:05.579><c> knowledge</c><00:32:05.859><c> is</c><00:32:06.099><c> lacking,</c><00:32:06.680><c> they</c><00:32:06.779><c> need</c><00:32:07.000><c> to</c><00:32:07.119><c> be</c><00:32:07.339><c> rebaptized.</c>

00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:11.460
It<00:32:10.240><c> wasn't</c><00:32:10.579><c> lacking,</c><00:32:11.059><c> that's</c><00:32:11.259><c> correct.</c>

00:32:11.500 --> 00:32:14.519
Sufficient<00:32:11.980><c> enough</c><00:32:12.640><c> to</c><00:32:13.200><c> qualify</c><00:32:13.680><c> for</c><00:32:13.960><c> rebaptism.</c>

00:32:14.839 --> 00:32:18.220
These<00:32:15.059><c> people</c><00:32:15.539><c> hadn't</c><00:32:15.960><c> heard</c><00:32:16.279><c> of</c><00:32:16.480><c> a</c><00:32:16.779><c> fundamental</c><00:32:17.299><c> part</c><00:32:17.859><c> of</c>

00:32:18.220 --> 00:32:19.380
John's<00:32:18.579><c> Gospel.</c>

00:32:19.400 --> 00:32:20.819
And<00:32:19.480><c> so</c><00:32:19.599><c> Paul</c><00:32:19.720><c> said</c><00:32:19.819><c> you</c><00:32:19.920><c> haven't</c><00:32:20.079><c> heard</c><00:32:20.259><c> of</c><00:32:20.359><c> a</c><00:32:20.500><c> fundamental</c>

00:32:20.819 --> 00:32:22.259
part<00:32:21.079><c> of</c><00:32:21.200><c> John's</c><00:32:21.500><c> Gospel?</c>

00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:23.720
That's<00:32:22.619><c> insufficient,</c><00:32:23.059><c> that's</c><00:32:23.299><c> not</c><00:32:23.440><c> enough.</c>

00:32:24.000 --> 00:32:26.200
You<00:32:24.119><c> haven't</c><00:32:24.319><c> really</c><00:32:24.640><c> been</c><00:32:24.920><c> baptized</c><00:32:25.299><c> into</c><00:32:25.519><c> John's</c><00:32:25.940><c> baptism.</c>

00:32:26.640 --> 00:32:29.640
You've<00:32:26.819><c> been</c><00:32:26.980><c> baptized</c><00:32:27.420><c> into</c><00:32:27.700><c> something</c><00:32:29.279><c> else.</c>

00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:32.619
So<00:32:30.119><c> your</c><00:32:30.619><c> knowledge</c><00:32:30.880><c> is</c><00:32:31.140><c> lacking</c><00:32:31.319><c> enough</c><00:32:31.819><c> to</c><00:32:32.279><c> warrant</c><00:32:32.420><c> you</c>

00:32:32.619 --> 00:32:34.140
being<00:32:32.859><c> rebaptized.</c>

00:32:34.339 --> 00:32:35.519
Uncle<00:32:34.720><c> Chris?</c>

00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:51.299
Yeah.

00:33:00.859 --> 00:33:01.880
Yep.

00:33:03.880 --> 00:33:05.140
There<00:33:03.980><c> you</c><00:33:04.059><c> go.</c>

00:33:05.880 --> 00:33:07.180
That's<00:33:06.099><c> very</c><00:33:06.279><c> interesting.</c>

00:33:10.099 --> 00:33:11.279
A<00:33:10.160><c> few</c><00:33:10.299><c> times.</c>

00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:14.119
As<00:33:12.720><c> he</c><00:33:12.940><c> increased</c><00:33:13.140><c> in</c><00:33:13.339><c> knowledge.</c>

00:33:14.660 --> 00:33:16.940
He<00:33:14.980><c> obviously</c><00:33:15.519><c> understands</c><00:33:16.000><c> therefore</c><00:33:16.359><c> that</c><00:33:16.539><c> the</c><00:33:16.720><c> knowledge</c>

00:33:16.940 --> 00:33:18.859
was<00:33:17.460><c> the</c><00:33:17.740><c> efficacy</c><00:33:18.140><c> of</c><00:33:18.420><c> the</c><00:33:18.559><c> baptism,</c>

00:33:18.960 --> 00:33:20.440
not<00:33:19.160><c> actually</c><00:33:19.500><c> the</c><00:33:19.660><c> baptism</c><00:33:19.980><c> itself,</c>

00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:23.799
but<00:33:20.880><c> the</c><00:33:21.099><c> knowledge</c><00:33:21.339><c> that</c><00:33:21.539><c> was</c><00:33:22.119><c> present</c><00:33:22.420><c> in</c><00:33:22.720><c> that</c><00:33:22.980><c> individual's</c><00:33:23.539><c> mind</c>

00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:25.500
at<00:33:24.220><c> the</c><00:33:24.339><c> point</c><00:33:24.500><c> of</c><00:33:24.660><c> baptism.</c>

00:33:25.740 --> 00:33:27.980
So<00:33:25.960><c> the</c><00:33:26.039><c> answer</c><00:33:26.279><c> to</c><00:33:26.400><c> that</c><00:33:26.539><c> question,</c><00:33:26.799><c> I</c><00:33:26.980><c> think,</c><00:33:27.460><c> is</c><00:33:27.700><c> no.</c>

00:33:27.980 --> 00:33:30.500
It<00:33:28.380><c> was</c><00:33:28.599><c> based</c><00:33:28.920><c> on</c><00:33:29.380><c> their</c><00:33:29.599><c> knowledge.</c>

00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:32.680
Okay,<00:33:30.960><c> Acts</c><00:33:31.220><c> chapter</c><00:33:31.420><c> 19</c><00:33:31.839><c> and</c><00:33:31.960><c> verse</c><00:33:32.160><c> 8.</c>

00:33:32.900 --> 00:33:35.440
Paul's<00:33:33.039><c> in</c><00:33:33.200><c> Ephesus,</c><00:33:33.900><c> and</c><00:33:34.000><c> he</c><00:33:34.059><c> goes</c><00:33:34.299><c> straight</c><00:33:34.640><c> into</c><00:33:34.880><c> the</c><00:33:35.059><c> synagogue,</c>

00:33:35.759 --> 00:33:37.380
and<00:33:35.839><c> he</c><00:33:36.039><c> spake</c><00:33:36.220><c> boldly</c><00:33:36.579><c> there</c><00:33:36.720><c> for</c><00:33:36.920><c> three</c><00:33:37.160><c> months.</c>

00:33:37.440 --> 00:33:41.420
That<00:33:37.599><c> is</c><00:33:37.839><c> the</c><00:33:38.119><c> longest</c><00:33:38.500><c> time</c><00:33:39.019><c> that</c><00:33:39.400><c> Paul</c><00:33:39.660><c> ever</c><00:33:40.119><c> spent</c><00:33:40.460><c> preaching</c><00:33:40.799><c> in</c><00:33:41.019><c> a</c><00:33:41.119><c> synagogue.</c>

00:33:41.740 --> 00:33:43.799
The<00:33:41.980><c> longest</c><00:33:42.299><c> time</c><00:33:42.519><c> that</c><00:33:42.660><c> he</c><00:33:42.759><c> ever</c><00:33:43.039><c> spent</c><00:33:43.200><c> in</c><00:33:43.359><c> the</c><00:33:43.500><c> whole</c><00:33:43.660><c> of</c>

his<00:33:43.960><c> preaching</c><00:33:44.259><c> life,</c>

00:33:44.859 --> 00:33:47.700
he<00:33:45.019><c> spent</c><00:33:45.279><c> it</c><00:33:45.519><c> there</c><00:33:45.759><c> in</c><00:33:45.960><c> Ephesus,</c><00:33:46.339><c> three</c><00:33:46.640><c> months.</c>

00:33:48.099 --> 00:33:51.579
But<00:33:48.279><c> like</c><00:33:48.539><c> every</c><00:33:48.759><c> other</c><00:33:49.019><c> time,</c><00:33:50.200><c> it</c><00:33:50.200><c> wasn't</c><00:33:50.440><c> too</c><00:33:50.759><c> long,</c>

00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:54.099
and<00:33:52.039><c> they</c><00:33:52.119><c> got</c><00:33:52.299><c> obstinate,</c><00:33:52.940><c> they</c><00:33:53.099><c> didn't</c><00:33:53.279><c> like</c><00:33:53.500><c> what</c><00:33:53.599><c> he</c><00:33:53.700><c> was</c><00:33:53.779><c> saying,</c>

00:33:54.380 --> 00:33:56.359
they<00:33:54.539><c> got</c><00:33:54.740><c> critical,</c><00:33:55.380><c> and</c><00:33:55.619><c> they</c><00:33:55.740><c> booted</c><00:33:56.019><c> him.</c>

00:33:56.359 --> 00:33:58.539
But<00:33:56.940><c> have</c><00:33:57.099><c> a</c><00:33:57.160><c> look</c><00:33:57.259><c> at</c><00:33:57.319><c> what</c><00:33:57.460><c> he</c><00:33:57.539><c> did</c><00:33:57.720><c> in</c><00:33:57.900><c> verse</c><00:33:58.160><c> 8.</c>

00:33:58.819 --> 00:34:01.500
It<00:33:58.859><c> says</c><00:33:59.039><c> that</c><00:33:59.200><c> he</c><00:33:59.220><c> went</c><00:33:59.400><c> there</c><00:33:59.700><c> disputing</c><00:34:00.359><c> and</c><00:34:00.660><c> persuading</c>

00:34:07.819 --> 00:34:10.599
Now<00:34:07.980><c> it</c><00:34:08.179><c> begins</c><00:34:08.260><c> the</c><00:34:08.380><c> verse</c><00:34:08.539><c> by</c><00:34:08.800><c> saying</c><00:34:09.079><c> that</c><00:34:09.239><c> this</c><00:34:09.480><c> was</c><00:34:09.860><c> his,</c>

00:34:41.679 --> 00:34:44.840
He<00:34:41.980><c> spoke</c><00:34:42.199><c> the</c><00:34:42.440><c> truth</c><00:34:42.639><c> boldly</c><00:34:43.320><c> and</c><00:34:43.940><c> confidently.</c>

00:34:44.980 --> 00:34:46.880
He<00:34:45.099><c> wasn't</c><00:34:45.300><c> nervous</c><00:34:45.619><c> about</c><00:34:45.860><c> saying,</c><00:34:46.059><c> look,</c><00:34:46.239><c> I'm</c><00:34:46.420><c> a</c><00:34:46.579><c> Christian.</c>

00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:48.940
He<00:34:47.320><c> wasn't</c><00:34:47.500><c> nervous</c><00:34:47.800><c> about</c><00:34:48.019><c> saying,</c><00:34:48.199><c> look,</c><00:34:48.360><c> I</c><00:34:48.440><c> go</c><00:34:48.559><c> to</c><00:34:48.679><c> church</c>

00:34:50.760 --> 00:34:52.900
He<00:34:50.900><c> wasn't</c><00:34:51.099><c> nervous</c><00:34:51.460><c> about</c><00:34:51.719><c> saying</c><00:34:51.940><c> that</c><00:34:52.139><c> I</c><00:34:52.280><c> believe</c><00:34:52.519><c> Jesus</c>

00:34:52.900 --> 00:34:53.579
Christ<00:34:53.159><c> is</c><00:34:53.360><c> coming</c>

00:34:53.579 --> 00:34:55.320
and<00:34:53.880><c> he's</c><00:34:54.019><c> going</c><00:34:54.179><c> to</c><00:34:54.280><c> set</c><00:34:54.420><c> up</c><00:34:54.559><c> a</c><00:34:54.679><c> kingdom</c><00:34:54.840><c> on</c><00:34:55.019><c> the</c><00:34:55.139><c> earth</c>

00:34:55.320 --> 00:34:56.599
and<00:34:55.659><c> he's</c><00:34:55.780><c> going</c><00:34:55.920><c> to</c><00:34:56.039><c> reign</c><00:34:56.099><c> forever.</c>

00:34:57.079 --> 00:34:58.079
Paul<00:34:57.079><c> wasn't</c><00:34:57.219><c> nervous</c><00:34:57.519><c> about</c><00:34:57.780><c> that.</c>

00:34:58.219 --> 00:34:59.400
He<00:34:58.320><c> was</c><00:34:58.519><c> like,</c><00:34:58.699><c> really,</c><00:34:59.179><c> Frank?</c>

00:34:59.780 --> 00:35:02.079
I<00:35:00.119><c> believe</c><00:35:00.400><c> this</c><00:35:00.699><c> and</c><00:35:00.920><c> this</c><00:35:01.159><c> is</c><00:35:01.340><c> why</c><00:35:01.480><c> I</c><00:35:01.619><c> believe</c><00:35:01.800><c> it.</c>

00:35:02.219 --> 00:35:08.420
And<00:35:02.340><c> he</c><00:35:02.440><c> was</c><00:35:02.699><c> 100</c><00:35:03.300><c>%</c><00:35:03.699><c> committed</c><00:35:04.219><c> to</c><00:35:04.599><c> frankly</c><00:35:06.639><c> communicating</c><00:35:07.539><c> what</c><00:35:07.980><c> he</c><00:35:08.219><c> believed.</c>

00:35:08.420 --> 00:35:10.219
That<00:35:08.519><c> was</c><00:35:08.739><c> pretty</c><00:35:08.980><c> average,</c><00:35:09.719><c> sorry.</c>

00:35:10.340 --> 00:35:13.780
He<00:35:10.440><c> was</c><00:35:10.639><c> 100</c><00:35:11.199><c>%</c><00:35:11.539><c> committed</c><00:35:11.900><c> to</c><00:35:12.280><c> frankly</c><00:35:12.659><c> communicating</c><00:35:13.340><c> what</c>

00:35:13.780 --> 00:35:14.900
he<00:35:14.039><c> believed.</c>

00:35:15.019 --> 00:35:19.139
Jesus<00:35:15.400><c> Christ</c><00:35:15.739><c> was</c><00:35:15.960><c> coming</c><00:35:16.199><c> again</c><00:35:16.800><c> and</c><00:35:17.440><c> would</c><00:35:17.860><c> reign</c><00:35:18.039><c> on</c><00:35:18.280><c> earth.</c>

00:35:19.519 --> 00:35:21.239
That's<00:35:19.920><c> what</c><00:35:20.039><c> he</c><00:35:20.219><c> taught,</c><00:35:20.539><c> brothers</c><00:35:20.619><c> and</c><00:35:20.860><c> sisters,</c>

00:35:21.239 --> 00:35:26.199
and<00:35:21.619><c> he</c><00:35:22.119><c> says</c><00:35:22.280><c> he</c><00:35:22.480><c> does</c><00:35:22.739><c> so</c><00:35:23.219><c> by</c><00:35:23.599><c> disputing</c><00:35:24.539><c> and</c><00:35:24.940><c> persuading.</c>

00:35:26.460 --> 00:35:28.099
Now,<00:35:26.940><c> it</c><00:35:27.039><c> doesn't</c><00:35:27.320><c> mean</c><00:35:27.639><c> arguing.</c>

00:35:28.460 --> 00:35:30.079
We<00:35:28.599><c> get</c><00:35:28.760><c> the</c><00:35:28.900><c> idea</c><00:35:29.139><c> you</c><00:35:29.280><c> have</c><00:35:29.460><c> a</c><00:35:29.619><c> dispute.</c>

00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:32.280
You<00:35:30.360><c> know,</c><00:35:30.679><c> Kevin</c><00:35:30.840><c> Reynolds</c><00:35:31.119><c> has</c><00:35:31.400><c> a</c><00:35:31.559><c> dispute</c><00:35:31.900><c> with</c><00:35:32.119><c> the</c>

00:35:32.280 --> 00:35:33.599
builder's<00:35:32.880><c> workplace</c>

00:35:33.599 --> 00:35:35.260
and<00:35:33.880><c> there's</c><00:35:34.019><c> this</c><00:35:34.239><c> massive</c><00:35:34.519><c> big</c><00:35:34.780><c> argument.</c>

00:35:35.460 --> 00:35:36.519
It's<00:35:35.739><c> not</c><00:35:35.940><c> that</c><00:35:36.099><c> at</c><00:35:36.300><c> all.</c>

00:35:36.880 --> 00:35:38.199
It's<00:35:37.440><c> a</c><00:35:37.860><c> discussion.</c>

00:35:38.539 --> 00:35:41.500
It's<00:35:38.780><c> a</c><00:35:38.940><c> passionate</c><00:35:39.260><c> discussion</c><00:35:39.900><c> debating</c><00:35:40.579><c> backwards</c><00:35:40.960><c> and</c><00:35:41.239><c> forwards</c>

00:35:41.500 --> 00:35:44.699
on<00:35:41.920><c> who's</c><00:35:42.380><c> right</c><00:35:42.539><c> and</c><00:35:43.019><c> what</c><00:35:43.239><c> this</c><00:35:43.539><c> passage</c><00:35:43.840><c> might</c><00:35:44.099><c> mean</c>

00:35:44.699 --> 00:35:47.860
at<00:35:45.280><c> this</c><00:35:45.480><c> particular</c><00:35:46.260><c> point</c><00:35:46.679><c> in</c><00:35:47.039><c> time.</c>

00:35:48.219 --> 00:35:49.380
So<00:35:48.440><c> what's</c><00:35:48.780><c> Paul</c><00:35:48.900><c> discussing?</c>

00:35:49.380 --> 00:35:51.960
It<00:35:49.840><c> says</c><00:35:50.119><c> that</c><00:35:50.300><c> he</c><00:35:50.380><c> was</c><00:35:50.619><c> trying</c><00:35:50.840><c> to</c><00:35:51.039><c> convince</c><00:35:51.320><c> the</c><00:35:51.559><c> audience</c>

00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:53.619
about<00:35:52.619><c> the</c><00:35:52.840><c> kingdom.</c>

00:35:53.780 --> 00:35:55.679
Now,<00:35:53.880><c> we</c><00:35:53.980><c> know</c><00:35:54.159><c> the</c><00:35:54.320><c> whole</c><00:35:54.519><c> way</c><00:35:54.739><c> through</c><00:35:54.980><c> Paul's</c><00:35:55.380><c> preaching,</c>

00:35:56.039 --> 00:35:58.280
the<00:35:56.119><c> two</c><00:35:56.400><c> things</c><00:35:56.659><c> that</c><00:35:56.860><c> he</c><00:35:57.039><c> spoke</c><00:35:57.360><c> repeatedly,</c>

00:35:58.579 --> 00:36:01.440
that<00:35:58.739><c> he</c><00:35:58.980><c> preached</c><00:35:59.260><c> repeatedly,</c><00:36:00.199><c> was</c><00:36:00.400><c> the</c><00:36:00.599><c> kingdom.</c>

00:36:01.559 --> 00:36:04.639
It<00:36:01.619><c> was</c><00:36:01.800><c> the</c><00:36:01.980><c> kingdom</c><00:36:02.179><c> of</c><00:36:02.340><c> God</c><00:36:02.679><c> and</c><00:36:03.199><c> the</c><00:36:03.340><c> name</c><00:36:03.639><c> of</c><00:36:03.820><c> Jesus</c><00:36:04.179><c> Christ.</c>

00:36:05.059 --> 00:36:07.320
Now,<00:36:05.239><c> the</c><00:36:05.340><c> kingdom</c><00:36:05.599><c> of</c><00:36:05.800><c> God</c><00:36:06.000><c> is</c><00:36:06.340><c> the</c><00:36:06.519><c> doctrine</c><00:36:06.760><c> of</c><00:36:07.059><c> Christ.</c>

00:36:07.420 --> 00:36:08.300
It's<00:36:07.659><c> one</c><00:36:07.760><c> and</c><00:36:07.880><c> the</c><00:36:08.079><c> same.</c>

00:36:08.500 --> 00:36:10.820
You<00:36:08.619><c> can't</c><00:36:08.860><c> have</c><00:36:09.039><c> the</c><00:36:09.260><c> kingdom</c><00:36:09.500><c> without</c><00:36:09.780><c> the</c><00:36:10.039><c> Savior.</c>

00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:14.179
You<00:36:11.019><c> can't</c><00:36:11.420><c> have</c><00:36:11.960><c> the</c><00:36:12.280><c> kingdom</c><00:36:12.559><c> without</c><00:36:12.860><c> the</c><00:36:13.059><c> work</c><00:36:13.239><c> of</c><00:36:13.380><c> Jesus</c><00:36:13.780><c> Christ.</c>

00:36:14.500 --> 00:36:16.880
And<00:36:14.659><c> so</c><00:36:14.780><c> here</c><00:36:14.940><c> it's</c><00:36:15.179><c> tied</c><00:36:15.360><c> up</c><00:36:15.679><c> in</c><00:36:15.960><c> the</c><00:36:16.139><c> one</c><00:36:16.320><c> word,</c><00:36:16.539><c> the</c><00:36:16.699><c> kingdom</c>

00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:17.380
of<00:36:17.139><c> God.</c>

00:36:17.380 --> 00:36:20.500
But<00:36:17.780><c> implicit</c><00:36:18.199><c> in</c><00:36:18.380><c> that</c><00:36:18.739><c> is</c><00:36:19.079><c> the</c><00:36:19.199><c> fact</c><00:36:19.420><c> that</c><00:36:19.579><c> Jesus</c><00:36:19.980><c> Christ</c>

00:36:20.500 --> 00:36:21.400
was<00:36:20.940><c> taught</c>

00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:24.300
because<00:36:21.820><c> he</c><00:36:22.039><c> makes</c><00:36:22.519><c> the</c><00:36:22.940><c> kingdom</c><00:36:23.199><c> possible.</c>

00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:27.260
Now,<00:36:24.659><c> the</c><00:36:24.699><c> question</c><00:36:25.079><c> is,</c><00:36:25.820><c> what</c><00:36:25.960><c> do</c><00:36:26.159><c> we</c><00:36:26.360><c> preach?</c>

00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:29.800
When<00:36:28.059><c> you</c><00:36:28.119><c> think</c><00:36:28.260><c> about</c><00:36:28.519><c> our</c><00:36:28.780><c> preaching</c><00:36:29.019><c> as</c><00:36:29.260><c> an</c><00:36:29.380><c> ecclesia</c>

00:36:29.800 --> 00:36:32.079
and<00:36:30.199><c> think</c><00:36:30.420><c> about</c><00:36:30.679><c> our</c><00:36:30.940><c> preaching</c><00:36:31.219><c> as</c><00:36:31.500><c> an</c><00:36:31.760><c> individual,</c>

00:36:32.219 --> 00:36:34.539
what<00:36:32.519><c> do</c><00:36:32.739><c> we</c><00:36:32.940><c> preach,</c><00:36:33.340><c> brothers</c><00:36:33.440><c> and</c><00:36:33.659><c> sisters?</c>

00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:37.719
Do<00:36:35.199><c> you</c><00:36:35.199><c> know</c><00:36:35.199><c> Paul</c><00:36:35.539><c> never</c><00:36:36.000><c> ever</c><00:36:36.340><c> ran</c><00:36:36.699><c> public</c><00:36:37.280><c> lectures</c>

Although,<00:36:41.760><c> that</c><00:36:41.860><c> was</c><00:36:42.059><c> what</c><00:36:42.199><c> all</c><00:36:42.440><c> the</c><00:36:42.639><c> philosophers</c><00:36:43.019><c> and</c><00:36:43.639><c> all</c>

Spirit,<01:00:27.880><c> they</c><01:00:28.059><c> would</c><01:00:28.260><c> convince</c><01:00:28.659><c> people</c><01:00:28.980><c> of</c><01:00:29.139><c> the</c>

01:00:29.320 --> 01:00:31.039
truth.<01:00:29.920><c> And</c><01:00:30.079><c> it</c><01:00:30.260><c> worked.</c>

01:00:31.539 --> 01:00:33.360
It<01:00:31.719><c> worked.</c><01:00:32.239><c> That's</c><01:00:32.599><c> exactly</c><01:00:32.960><c> what</c><01:00:33.139><c> the</c>

01:00:33.360 --> 01:00:34.880
point<01:00:33.559><c> of</c><01:00:33.739><c> this</c><01:00:33.920><c> whole</c><01:00:34.179><c> story</c><01:00:34.440><c> is,</c>

to<01:00:35.280><c> show</c><01:00:35.480><c> that</c><01:00:35.719><c> there's</c><01:00:36.239><c> this</c><01:00:36.460><c> huge</c><01:00:36.699><c> contrast</c>

01:00:37.280 --> 01:00:39.019

01:00:41.659 --> 01:00:43.440

01:00:45.880 --> 01:00:47.239
Another<01:00:46.219><c> notable</c><01:00:46.699><c> victory</c><01:00:47.059><c> for</c>

01:00:47.239 --> 01:00:49.889
the<01:00:47.280><c> gospel.</c><01:00:48.420><c> People</c><01:00:48.800><c> were</c><01:00:49.119><c> awestruck</c>

01:00:50.019 --> 01:00:51.659
and<01:00:50.559><c> talked</c><01:00:51.039><c> in</c><01:00:51.340><c> tones</c>

01:00:51.659 --> 01:00:53.300
of<01:00:52.179><c> highted</c><01:00:52.579><c> respect</c><01:00:53.019><c> for</c><01:00:53.199><c> the</c>

01:00:53.300 --> 01:00:54.739

01:00:55.780 --> 01:00:56.820
Janna.

01:01:00.780 --> 01:01:01.619
Yes,<01:01:00.900><c> it</c><01:01:01.059><c> is</c><01:01:01.280><c> interesting</c>

01:01:01.619 --> 01:01:03.139
that<01:01:01.800><c> because</c><01:01:02.099><c> there's</c><01:01:02.320><c> no</c><01:01:02.559><c> chief</c><01:01:02.840><c> priest</c>

01:01:03.139 --> 01:01:05.219
known<01:01:03.400><c> in</c><01:01:03.639><c> the</c><01:01:03.760><c> history</c><01:01:04.260><c> of</c><01:01:04.900><c> anywhere</c>

01:01:05.219 --> 01:01:07.000
of<01:01:05.519><c> the</c><01:01:05.639><c> Jews</c><01:01:05.800><c> as</c><01:01:06.159><c> Sceva.</c>

01:01:07.039 --> 01:01:08.860
So<01:01:07.219><c> they</c><01:01:07.320><c> actually</c><01:01:07.679><c> think</c><01:01:07.920><c> that</c><01:01:08.079><c> this</c><01:01:08.280><c> was</c><01:01:08.480><c> possibly</c>

01:01:08.860 --> 01:01:10.599
just<01:01:09.440><c> a</c><01:01:09.599><c> complete</c><01:01:10.159><c> joke.</c>

01:01:11.059 --> 01:01:12.619
That<01:01:11.400><c> it</c><01:01:11.559><c> wasn't</c><01:01:11.800><c> true</c><01:01:12.079><c> whatsoever.</c>

01:01:12.900 --> 01:01:14.880
That<01:01:13.079><c> these</c><01:01:13.260><c> men</c><01:01:13.440><c> didn't</c><01:01:13.679><c> hold</c><01:01:13.920><c> the</c><01:01:14.139><c> position</c><01:01:14.380><c> as</c><01:01:14.599><c> being</c><01:01:14.780><c> the</c>

01:01:14.880 --> 01:01:15.239
sons<01:01:15.019><c> of</c>

01:01:15.239 --> 01:01:17.199
Sceva,<01:01:15.760><c> because</c><01:01:16.019><c> there's</c><01:01:16.260><c> no</c><01:01:16.500><c> evidence</c><01:01:16.780><c> in</c><01:01:17.000><c> any</c>

01:01:17.199 --> 01:01:19.460
Jewish<01:01:17.380><c> literature</c><01:01:17.900><c> that</c><01:01:18.239><c> there</c><01:01:18.420><c> was</c><01:01:18.659><c> such</c><01:01:18.900><c> a</c><01:01:19.079><c> man</c>

01:01:19.460 --> 01:01:21.320
as<01:01:19.780><c> Sceva</c><01:01:20.599><c> who</c><01:01:20.800><c> was</c><01:01:21.039><c> a</c><01:01:21.199><c> priest,</c>

01:01:21.360 --> 01:01:22.780
whether<01:01:21.619><c> in</c><01:01:21.820><c> Ephesus</c><01:01:22.099><c> or</c><01:01:22.260><c> in</c><01:01:22.480><c> Jerusalem.</c>

01:01:23.000 --> 01:01:24.659
There<01:01:23.139><c> could</c><01:01:23.320><c> only</c><01:01:23.559><c> be</c><01:01:23.739><c> one</c><01:01:23.960><c> high</c><01:01:24.199><c> priest,</c>

01:01:25.059 --> 01:01:27.119
obviously,<01:01:25.659><c> and</c><01:01:25.940><c> there's</c><01:01:26.159><c> no</c><01:01:26.400><c> evidence</c><01:01:26.659><c> of</c><01:01:26.820><c> there</c><01:01:26.940><c> being</c>

01:01:27.119 --> 01:01:29.079
a<01:01:27.260><c> Sceva</c><01:01:27.719><c> at</c><01:01:28.119><c> all</c><01:01:28.280><c> being</c><01:01:28.460><c> a</c><01:01:28.500><c> high</c><01:01:28.719><c> priest</c>

01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:31.500
and<01:01:29.579><c> no</c><01:01:29.820><c> evidence</c><01:01:30.059><c> at</c><01:01:30.260><c> all</c><01:01:30.500><c> in</c><01:01:31.039><c> Ephesus</c>

01:01:31.500 --> 01:01:33.739
that<01:01:31.719><c> was</c><01:01:31.900><c> such</c><01:01:32.119><c> a</c><01:01:32.260><c> man</c><01:01:32.440><c> as</c>

01:01:33.980 --> 01:01:34.679
Sceva<01:01:34.340><c> either.</c>

01:01:34.920 --> 01:01:37.360
But<01:01:35.059><c> yeah,</c><01:01:35.280><c> it</c><01:01:35.380><c> certainly,</c><01:01:36.039><c> it</c><01:01:36.199><c> is</c><01:01:36.420><c> interesting.</c>

01:01:37.440 --> 01:01:38.820
Now<01:01:37.579><c> what</c><01:01:37.659><c> we're</c><01:01:37.820><c> going</c><01:01:37.880><c> to</c><01:01:37.960><c> do</c><01:01:38.059><c> next</c><01:01:38.360><c> week,</c><01:01:38.500><c> and</c><01:01:38.619><c> the</c><01:01:38.679><c> reason</c>

01:01:38.820 --> 01:01:39.239
why<01:01:38.980><c> I</c><01:01:39.019><c> didn't</c>

01:01:39.239 --> 01:01:41.079
finish<01:01:39.519><c> on</c><01:01:39.679><c> it,</c><01:01:40.179><c> is</c><01:01:40.380><c> because</c>

01:01:41.079 --> 01:01:43.360
verse<01:01:41.420><c> 18</c><01:01:41.840><c> to</c><01:01:41.980><c> 20</c><01:01:42.480><c> is</c><01:01:42.880><c> going</c><01:01:42.980><c> to</c><01:01:43.219><c> take</c>

01:01:43.360 --> 01:01:45.079
some<01:01:43.599><c> considerable</c><01:01:44.119><c> time</c><01:01:44.440><c> to</c><01:01:44.579><c> look</c><01:01:44.800><c> at.</c>

01:01:45.219 --> 01:01:46.679
So<01:01:45.280><c> only</c><01:01:45.460><c> a</c><01:01:45.579><c> few</c><01:01:45.619><c> verses</c><01:01:45.900><c> of</c><01:01:46.059><c> Brothers</c><01:01:46.219><c> and</c><01:01:46.440><c> Sisters,</c>

01:01:47.019 --> 01:01:49.219
but<01:01:47.159><c> there's</c><01:01:47.460><c> something</c><01:01:47.719><c> in</c><01:01:47.940><c> there</c><01:01:48.099><c> that</c><01:01:48.320><c> is</c>

01:01:49.219 --> 01:01:50.960
very,<01:01:49.619><c> very</c><01:01:49.980><c> interesting.</c>

01:01:51.039 --> 01:01:53.559
Very,<01:01:51.360><c> very</c><01:01:51.679><c> interesting,</c><01:01:52.400><c> and</c><01:01:52.500><c> we'll</c><01:01:52.659><c> have</c><01:01:52.760><c> a</c><01:01:52.760><c> look</c><01:01:52.920><c> at</c><01:01:53.059><c> that</c>

01:01:53.559 --> 01:01:54.960
in<01:01:53.820><c> two</c><01:01:53.960><c> weeks'</c><01:01:54.219><c> time.</c>
