00:23:13.619 --> 00:23:15.819
I<00:23:13.859><c> will</c><00:23:14.119><c> repay,</c><00:23:14.740><c> saith</c><00:23:14.759><c> the</c><00:23:15.000><c> Lord.</c>

00:23:15.980 --> 00:23:18.880
Therefore,<00:23:16.660><c> if</c><00:23:16.759><c> thine</c><00:23:16.940><c> enemy</c><00:23:17.400><c> hunger,</c><00:23:18.000><c> feed</c><00:23:18.359><c> him.</c>

00:23:19.220 --> 00:23:21.579
If<00:23:19.440><c> he</c><00:23:19.720><c> thirsts,</c><00:23:20.079><c> give</c><00:23:20.240><c> him</c><00:23:20.519><c> drink.</c>

00:23:21.640 --> 00:23:23.279
For<00:23:21.859><c> in</c><00:23:22.119><c> so</c><00:23:22.359><c> doing</c><00:23:22.579><c> thou</c><00:23:22.799><c> shalt</c><00:23:23.039><c> heap</c>

00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:25.619
coals<00:23:23.660><c> of</c><00:23:23.940><c> fire</c><00:23:24.180><c> on</c><00:23:24.359><c> his</c><00:23:24.660><c> head.</c>

00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:28.240
Be<00:23:26.440><c> not</c><00:23:26.740><c> overcome</c><00:23:27.200><c> of</c><00:23:27.460><c> evil,</c>

00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:30.619
but<00:23:28.700><c> overcome</c><00:23:29.079><c> evil</c><00:23:29.359><c> with</c><00:23:29.660><c> good.</c>

00:23:31.720 --> 00:23:35.220
Can<00:23:32.140><c> we</c><00:23:32.299><c> do</c><00:23:32.500><c> it</c><00:23:32.700><c> in</c><00:23:32.880><c> real</c><00:23:33.160><c> life,</c><00:23:33.640><c> brothers</c><00:23:33.779><c> and</c><00:23:34.039><c> sisters?</c>

00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:38.440
When<00:23:35.500><c> we</c><00:23:35.700><c> know</c><00:23:36.019><c> that</c><00:23:36.559><c> someone</c><00:23:37.019><c> in</c><00:23:37.880><c> the</c><00:23:38.039><c> ecclesia,</c>

00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:40.380
in<00:23:38.700><c> the</c><00:23:38.799><c> household</c><00:23:39.119><c> of</c><00:23:39.400><c> faith,</c>

00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:44.420
for<00:23:40.720><c> whatever</c><00:23:41.000><c> reason</c><00:23:41.619><c> really,</c><00:23:42.500><c> really</c><00:23:42.740><c> doesn't</c><00:23:43.019><c> like</c><00:23:43.319><c> us.</c>

00:23:44.920 --> 00:23:49.319
Can<00:23:45.259><c> we</c><00:23:45.519><c> behave</c><00:23:45.880><c> in</c><00:23:46.119><c> that</c><00:23:46.500><c> Christ</c><00:23:46.859><c>-like</c><00:23:47.059><c> way</c><00:23:47.579><c> toward</c><00:23:48.299><c> them?</c>

00:23:50.579 --> 00:23:51.660
So<00:23:50.740><c> that's</c><00:23:50.900><c> the</c><00:23:51.039><c> first</c><00:23:51.220><c> lesson</c>

00:23:51.660 --> 00:23:55.079
that<00:23:52.059><c> comes</c><00:23:52.319><c> out</c><00:23:52.519><c> of</c><00:23:52.759><c> Paul's</c><00:23:53.220><c> attitude</c><00:23:53.660><c> to</c><00:23:53.900><c> the</c><00:23:54.079><c> Jews.</c>

00:23:55.579 --> 00:23:58.460
The<00:23:55.740><c> second</c><00:23:56.099><c> is</c><00:23:56.319><c> the</c><00:23:56.759><c> issue</c><00:23:57.099><c> of</c><00:23:57.400><c> Israel.</c>

00:23:58.759 --> 00:24:00.799
They<00:23:58.920><c> are</c><00:23:59.339><c> back</c><00:23:59.559><c> in</c><00:23:59.720><c> the</c><00:23:59.900><c> land</c>

00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:03.339
in<00:24:01.319><c> fulfillment</c><00:24:01.940><c> of</c><00:24:02.420><c> Bible</c><00:24:02.799><c> prophecy.</c>

00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:06.940
We<00:24:03.940><c> should</c><00:24:04.079><c> be</c><00:24:04.440><c> so</c><00:24:04.720><c> excited</c><00:24:05.220><c> about</c><00:24:05.539><c> it.</c>

00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:09.859
The<00:24:07.579><c> fact</c><00:24:07.759><c> that</c><00:24:08.140><c> their</c><00:24:08.480><c> reestablishment</c><00:24:09.279><c> in</c><00:24:09.420><c> the</c><00:24:09.599><c> land,</c>

00:24:10.099 --> 00:24:11.440
upon<00:24:10.299><c> the</c><00:24:10.500><c> mountains</c><00:24:10.859><c> of</c><00:24:11.079><c> Israel,</c>

00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:14.339
the<00:24:11.920><c> stick</c><00:24:12.240><c> of</c><00:24:12.579><c> Judah</c><00:24:12.839><c> of</c><00:24:13.119><c> Ezekiel</c><00:24:13.519><c> 37,</c>

00:24:14.740 --> 00:24:17.440
there<00:24:14.859><c> in</c><00:24:15.039><c> the</c><00:24:15.220><c> land,</c><00:24:15.720><c> ready</c><00:24:16.059><c> for</c><00:24:16.400><c> the</c><00:24:16.640><c> stick</c><00:24:16.859><c> of</c><00:24:17.059><c> Joseph,</c>

00:24:17.519 --> 00:24:19.740
the<00:24:17.660><c> stick</c><00:24:17.859><c> of</c><00:24:18.019><c> Ephraim,</c><00:24:18.740><c> all</c><00:24:18.920><c> the</c><00:24:19.079><c> house</c><00:24:19.279><c> of</c><00:24:19.519><c> Israel</c>

00:24:19.740 --> 00:24:22.220
to<00:24:20.000><c> be</c><00:24:20.460><c> united</c><00:24:20.859><c> with</c><00:24:21.160><c> them.</c>

00:24:22.299 --> 00:24:24.579
We<00:24:22.859><c> should</c><00:24:23.019><c> be</c><00:24:23.220><c> so</c><00:24:23.480><c> excited.</c>

00:24:25.079 --> 00:24:27.299
Most<00:24:25.640><c> of</c><00:24:26.200><c> us</c><00:24:26.299><c> are.</c>

00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:30.700
But<00:24:28.299><c> it</c><00:24:28.579><c> seems</c><00:24:28.880><c> that</c><00:24:29.099><c> in</c><00:24:29.380><c> some</c><00:24:29.619><c> quarters</c>

00:24:31.140 --> 00:24:33.480
there<00:24:31.700><c> are</c><00:24:31.900><c> other</c><00:24:32.099><c> views</c><00:24:32.380><c> of</c><00:24:32.619><c> Israel.</c>

00:24:33.940 --> 00:24:36.339
Let<00:24:34.180><c> me</c><00:24:34.339><c> just</c><00:24:34.779><c> quote</c><00:24:35.000><c> to</c><00:24:35.240><c> you</c><00:24:35.519><c> some</c><00:24:35.859><c> words</c>

00:24:46.400 --> 00:24:48.619
The<00:24:46.559><c> Holy</c><00:24:46.880><c> Scriptures</c><00:24:47.519><c> cannot</c><00:24:48.039><c> be</c><00:24:48.339><c> used</c>

00:24:48.619 --> 00:24:51.299
to<00:24:48.880><c> justify</c><00:24:49.359><c> the</c><00:24:49.579><c> return</c><00:24:49.940><c> of</c><00:24:50.119><c> the</c><00:24:50.299><c> Jews</c><00:24:50.500><c> to</c><00:24:50.700><c> Israel</c>

00:24:51.299 --> 00:24:54.259
and<00:24:51.859><c> the</c><00:24:52.140><c> displacement</c><00:24:52.579><c> of</c><00:24:52.839><c> the</c><00:24:53.079><c> Palestinians,</c>

00:24:56.660 --> 00:24:58.700
of<00:24:57.019><c> Palestinian</c><00:24:57.500><c> lands.</c>

00:24:59.400 --> 00:25:02.559
We<00:24:59.640><c> Christians</c><00:25:00.180><c> cannot</c><00:25:00.700><c> speak</c><00:25:01.279><c> of</c><00:25:01.579><c> the</c><00:25:01.859><c> promised</c><00:25:02.059><c> land</c>

00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:06.380

00:25:06.460 --> 00:25:08.920
This<00:25:06.819><c> promise</c><00:25:07.200><c> was</c><00:25:07.500><c> abolished</c><00:25:08.019><c> by</c><00:25:08.339><c> Christ.</c>

00:25:08.920 --> 00:25:12.039
There<00:25:09.519><c> is</c><00:25:09.839><c> no</c><00:25:10.059><c> longer</c><00:25:10.380><c> a</c><00:25:10.640><c> chosen</c><00:25:10.960><c> people.</c>

00:25:16.759 --> 00:25:19.519
It's<00:25:16.940><c> called</c><00:25:17.319><c> replacement</c><00:25:18.299><c> theology.</c>

00:25:20.319 --> 00:25:23.119
The<00:25:20.460><c> church,</c><00:25:21.940><c> the</c><00:25:22.200><c> Christians,</c>

00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:25.140
are<00:25:23.339><c> now</c><00:25:23.539><c> the</c><00:25:23.740><c> chosen</c><00:25:24.119><c> people</c><00:25:24.619><c> of</c><00:25:24.900><c> God.</c>

00:25:25.220 --> 00:25:26.920
They're<00:25:25.539><c> at</c><00:25:25.640><c> the</c><00:25:25.819><c> centre</c><00:25:26.079><c> of</c><00:25:26.259><c> God's</c><00:25:26.660><c> purpose.</c>

00:25:27.299 --> 00:25:29.720
Israel's<00:25:27.859><c> disappeared</c><00:25:28.220><c> out</c><00:25:28.440><c> of</c><00:25:28.539><c> the</c><00:25:28.700><c> picture,</c>

00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:32.799

But<00:25:36.259><c> what</c><00:25:36.460><c> did</c><00:25:36.640><c> this</c><00:25:36.960><c> man,</c>

00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:40.400
whom<00:25:37.559><c> the</c><00:25:37.799><c> Jews</c><00:25:38.039><c> hated</c><00:25:38.500><c> so</c><00:25:38.880><c> much,</c><00:25:39.599><c> say?</c>

00:25:41.039 --> 00:25:43.799

00:25:44.460 --> 00:25:46.779
I<00:25:44.680><c> say</c><00:25:44.940><c> then,</c><00:25:45.819><c> have</c><00:25:46.119><c> they</c><00:25:46.380><c> stumbled</c>

00:25:46.779 --> 00:25:47.819
that<00:25:46.940><c> they</c><00:25:47.160><c> should</c><00:25:47.440><c> fall?</c>

00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:49.420
By<00:25:48.640><c> no</c><00:25:48.920><c> means.</c>

00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:51.380
But<00:25:50.059><c> rather</c><00:25:50.400><c> through</c><00:25:50.759><c> their</c><00:25:51.140><c> fall</c>

00:25:51.380 --> 00:25:53.779
salvation<00:25:52.119><c> is</c><00:25:52.400><c> come</c><00:25:52.579><c> unto</c><00:25:52.779><c> the</c><00:25:53.039><c> Gentiles,</c>

00:25:56.680 --> 00:25:59.359

00:28:58.660 --> 00:29:01.559
