00:01:31.459 --> 00:01:35.319
that<00:01:32.620><c> it's</c><00:01:32.680><c> not</c><00:01:32.980><c> so</c><00:01:33.200><c> much</c><00:01:33.379><c> what</c><00:01:33.579><c> we</c><00:01:33.879><c> achieve,</c><00:01:34.620><c> but</c><00:01:34.659><c> our</c><00:01:34.980><c> faith</c>

This<00:08:54.580><c> last</c><00:08:55.000><c> section</c><00:08:55.440><c> is</c><00:08:55.659><c> about</c><00:08:55.940><c> the</c><00:08:56.320><c> balancing</c><00:08:56.700><c> of</c><00:08:56.919><c> God's</c><00:08:57.519><c> mercies.</c>

00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:03.720
Once<00:09:00.500><c> to</c><00:09:00.759><c> Israel,</c><00:09:02.559><c> taken</c><00:09:02.720><c> away</c><00:09:03.139><c> from</c><00:09:03.340><c> Israel,</c>

00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:16.039
4<00:09:12.200><c> verse</c><00:09:12.440><c> 32,</c><00:09:13.240><c> God</c><00:09:13.480><c> hath</c><00:09:13.820><c> concluded</c><00:09:14.259><c> them</c><00:09:14.559><c> all</c><00:09:14.840><c> in</c><00:09:15.159><c> unbelief.</c>

00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:20.220
He<00:09:16.659><c> shut</c><00:09:16.899><c> them</c><00:09:17.139><c> all</c><00:09:17.340><c> up</c><00:09:17.500><c> in</c><00:09:17.700><c> their</c><00:09:18.000><c> season</c><00:09:18.480><c> in</c><00:09:18.919><c> unbelief,</c>

00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:22.580
that<00:09:20.539><c> He</c><00:09:20.700><c> might</c><00:09:20.960><c> have</c><00:09:21.240><c> mercy</c><00:09:21.480><c> upon</c><00:09:21.720><c> all,</c>

00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:31.480
So<00:09:27.539><c> our</c><00:09:27.779><c> opportunity</c><00:09:28.460><c> is</c><00:09:29.539><c> a</c><00:09:29.659><c> very</c><00:09:30.039><c> privileged</c><00:09:30.460><c> one.</c>

00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:36.639
We<00:09:31.899><c> were</c><00:09:32.120><c> not</c><00:09:32.340><c> always</c><00:09:33.080><c> graft</c><00:09:33.480><c> into</c><00:09:34.500><c> this</c><00:09:34.879><c> olive</c><00:09:35.179><c> tree,</c><00:09:35.460><c> were</c><00:09:35.620><c> we?</c>

00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:44.340
We<00:09:38.320><c> are</c><00:09:38.960><c> South</c><00:09:39.340><c> Africans,</c><00:09:41.019><c> or</c><00:09:41.419><c> Australians,</c><00:09:43.039><c> or</c><00:09:43.320><c> North</c><00:09:43.500><c> Americans,</c>

00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:50.240
And<00:09:48.120><c> what</c><00:09:48.279><c> did</c><00:09:48.460><c> we</c><00:09:48.740><c> have</c><00:09:49.000><c> to</c><00:09:49.179><c> do</c><00:09:49.299><c> with</c><00:09:49.500><c> the</c><00:09:49.659><c> hope</c><00:09:49.840><c> of</c><00:09:50.039><c> Israel?</c>

00:09:50.379 --> 00:09:51.820
Nothing<00:09:50.639><c> at</c><00:09:51.000><c> all.</c>

00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:54.279
What's<00:09:52.259><c> it</c><00:09:52.320><c> got</c><00:09:52.460><c> to</c><00:09:52.580><c> do</c><00:09:52.639><c> with</c><00:09:52.840><c> our</c><00:09:53.059><c> inheritance?</c>

00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:56.960
It<00:09:55.100><c> doesn't</c><00:09:55.100><c> relate</c><00:09:55.379><c> to</c><00:09:55.539><c> us,</c>

00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:00.600
rather<00:09:57.340><c> to</c><00:09:57.580><c> the</c><00:09:57.659><c> Jews</c><00:09:58.019><c> and</c><00:09:58.240><c> Jerusalem</c><00:09:58.779><c> and</c><00:09:58.980><c> the</c><00:09:59.139><c> land</c><00:09:59.320><c> of</c><00:09:59.580><c> promise.</c>

00:10:02.179 --> 00:10:03.600
But<00:10:02.360><c> in</c><00:10:02.539><c> God's</c><00:10:02.919><c> mercy,</c>

00:10:04.059 --> 00:10:06.659
He<00:10:04.220><c> has</c><00:10:04.460><c> brought</c><00:10:04.679><c> us</c><00:10:05.799><c> wondrously</c>

00:10:06.659 --> 00:10:09.460

00:10:09.500 --> 00:10:10.860
Isn't<00:10:09.639><c> that</c><00:10:09.860><c> wonderful?</c>

00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:14.080
Look<00:10:11.480><c> at</c><00:10:11.620><c> us</c><00:10:11.860><c> here</c><00:10:12.039><c> today</c><00:10:12.500><c> from</c><00:10:12.960><c> all</c><00:10:13.240><c> different</c><00:10:13.539><c> parts,</c>

00:10:18.700 --> 00:10:22.059
And<00:10:18.700><c> yet,</c><00:10:19.460><c> if</c><00:10:19.620><c> we</c><00:10:19.720><c> were</c><00:10:19.919><c> to</c><00:10:20.080><c> take</c><00:10:20.220><c> us</c><00:10:20.580><c> all</c><00:10:20.779><c> together</c><00:10:21.080><c> now</c><00:10:21.379><c> to</c><00:10:21.580><c> Jerusalem,</c>

00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:24.960
we<00:10:22.519><c> would</c><00:10:22.720><c> be</c><00:10:22.899><c> all</c><00:10:23.320><c> bubbling</c><00:10:23.580><c> with</c><00:10:23.940><c> excitement.</c>

00:10:26.620 --> 00:10:28.600
It<00:10:26.779><c> would</c><00:10:27.059><c> stir</c><00:10:27.360><c> the</c><00:10:27.580><c> hearts</c><00:10:27.799><c> of</c><00:10:28.019><c> every</c><00:10:28.220><c> one</c><00:10:28.340><c> of</c><00:10:28.480><c> us.</c>

00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:31.240
Isn't<00:10:28.879><c> that</c><00:10:29.059><c> an</c><00:10:29.240><c> amazing</c><00:10:29.620><c> thing</c><00:10:29.879><c> that</c><00:10:30.019><c> God</c><00:10:30.220><c> has</c><00:10:30.480><c> done?</c>

00:10:32.220 --> 00:10:34.759
So<00:10:32.399><c> behold</c><00:10:32.820><c> the</c><00:10:33.059><c> mercies</c><00:10:33.379><c> of</c><00:10:33.580><c> God.</c>

00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:36.919
It's<00:10:35.559><c> strange,</c><00:10:36.080><c> in</c><00:10:36.539><c> a</c><00:10:36.759><c> way,</c>

00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:39.320
that<00:10:37.000><c> doesn't</c><00:10:37.279><c> affect</c><00:10:37.720><c> the</c><00:10:37.940><c> people</c><00:10:38.139><c> outside</c><00:10:38.620><c> of</c><00:10:38.779><c> this</c><00:10:39.000><c> room.</c>

00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:42.419
They're<00:10:40.200><c> not</c><00:10:40.320><c> moved</c><00:10:40.600><c> by</c><00:10:40.860><c> those</c><00:10:41.320><c> things.</c>

00:10:42.980 --> 00:10:44.480
It<00:10:43.059><c> doesn't</c><00:10:43.120><c> have</c><00:10:43.299><c> the</c><00:10:43.500><c> same</c><00:10:43.659><c> effect</c><00:10:43.960><c> upon</c><00:10:44.259><c> them.</c>

00:10:44.600 --> 00:10:47.220
They<00:10:44.919><c> haven't</c><00:10:45.220><c> the</c><00:10:45.539><c> same</c><00:10:45.919><c> vision.</c>

00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:51.580
Nor<00:10:48.559><c> do</c><00:10:48.679><c> they</c><00:10:48.860><c> appreciate</c><00:10:49.600><c> that</c><00:10:50.480><c> the</c><00:10:50.779><c> Sappers</c><00:10:51.080><c> come</c>

from<00:10:52.500><c> the</c><00:10:52.799><c> stock</c><00:10:52.960><c> of</c><00:10:53.159><c> Israel's</c><00:10:53.860><c> tree.</c>

00:10:55.700 --> 00:10:58.899
They<00:10:55.919><c> boast</c><00:10:56.200><c> themselves</c><00:10:56.779><c> against</c><00:10:57.240><c> the</c><00:10:57.460><c> natural</c><00:10:57.799><c> branches.</c>

00:10:59.379 --> 00:11:01.840
But<00:10:59.559><c> God</c><00:10:59.840><c> has,</c><00:11:00.139><c> for</c><00:11:00.360><c> this</c><00:11:00.700><c> season,</c>

00:11:02.139 --> 00:11:04.240
brought<00:11:02.320><c> us</c><00:11:02.600><c> into</c><00:11:02.860><c> His</c><00:11:03.179><c> mercy.</c>

00:11:04.460 --> 00:11:08.100
We<00:11:04.639><c> therefore</c><00:11:05.059><c> ought</c><00:11:05.379><c> to</c><00:11:05.519><c> be</c><00:11:05.960><c> very</c><00:11:06.620><c> appreciative</c><00:11:07.320><c> of</c><00:11:07.600><c> that</c>

00:11:08.100 --> 00:11:11.440
I<00:11:08.720><c> beseech</c><00:11:09.259><c> you,</c><00:11:09.700><c> therefore,</c><00:11:09.960><c> says</c><00:11:10.080><c> the</c><00:11:10.299><c> Apostle,</c>

00:11:26.659 --> 00:11:29.039
I've<00:11:27.299><c> called</c><00:11:27.539><c> you</c><00:11:27.899><c> out</c><00:11:28.080><c> of</c><00:11:28.240><c> that</c>

00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:32.840
to<00:11:30.000><c> be</c><00:11:30.240><c> a</c><00:11:30.399><c> lover</c><00:11:30.779><c> of</c><00:11:31.600><c> the</c><00:11:31.799><c> promises</c><00:11:32.100><c> made</c>

00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:35.299
to<00:11:33.320><c> Abraham</c><00:11:33.840><c> the</c><00:11:34.100><c> father</c><00:11:34.360><c> of</c><00:11:34.600><c> the</c><00:11:34.799><c> Jews.</c>

00:11:35.299 --> 00:11:39.240
I<00:11:36.480><c> beseech</c><00:11:36.960><c> you,</c><00:11:37.379><c> by</c><00:11:37.379><c> the</c><00:11:37.639><c> mercies</c><00:11:38.080><c> of</c><00:11:38.279><c> God,</c>

00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:43.460
that<00:11:40.340><c> you</c><00:11:40.519><c> present</c><00:11:40.940><c> your</c><00:11:41.200><c> bodies</c><00:11:41.539><c> a</c><00:11:41.779><c> living</c><00:11:42.139><c> sacrifice.</c>

00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:45.960
It's<00:11:44.639><c> very</c><00:11:44.960><c> reasonable,</c><00:11:45.799><c> isn't</c><00:11:45.860><c> it?</c>

00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:47.600
That's<00:11:46.240><c> what</c><00:11:46.399><c> Paul</c><00:11:46.659><c> thinks.</c>

00:11:48.100 --> 00:11:50.840
He<00:11:48.259><c> said,</c><00:11:49.500><c> I</c><00:11:49.679><c> ask</c><00:11:50.320><c> you,</c><00:11:50.539><c> he</c><00:11:50.679><c> said,</c>

00:11:50.940 --> 00:11:53.059
to<00:11:51.080><c> present</c><00:11:51.379><c> your</c><00:11:51.679><c> bodies</c><00:11:51.940><c> a</c><00:11:52.139><c> living</c><00:11:52.399><c> sacrifice,</c>

00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:55.000
wholly<00:11:53.539><c> acceptable</c><00:11:53.940><c> unto</c><00:11:54.679><c> God,</c>

00:11:55.019 --> 00:11:58.740
which<00:11:55.220><c> is</c><00:11:55.440><c> your</c><00:11:56.259><c> reasonable</c><00:11:57.259><c> sacrifice.</c>

00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:01.080
If<00:11:59.259><c> God</c><00:11:59.480><c> has</c><00:11:59.700><c> done</c><00:11:59.899><c> so</c><00:12:00.279><c> much,</c>

00:12:01.259 --> 00:12:04.320
then<00:12:01.460><c> surely</c><00:12:02.059><c> there</c><00:12:02.299><c> should</c><00:12:02.539><c> be</c><00:12:03.279><c> a</c><00:12:03.679><c> like</c><00:12:04.019><c> response</c>

00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:07.320
to<00:12:05.139><c> God.</c>

00:12:07.620 --> 00:12:08.919
Apostle,<00:12:08.100><c> in</c><00:12:08.179><c> a</c><00:12:08.240><c> similar</c><00:12:08.539><c> way,</c>

00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:11.519
reasons<00:12:09.360><c> in</c><00:12:09.600><c> 2nd</c><00:12:09.840><c> Corinthians</c><00:12:10.399><c> 5.</c>

00:12:11.539 --> 00:12:17.980
He<00:12:11.580><c> never</c><00:12:11.960><c> sees</c><00:12:12.279><c> anything</c><00:12:13.379><c> unreasonable,</c><00:12:17.120><c> illogical.</c>

00:12:18.139 --> 00:12:22.139
The<00:12:18.360><c> word</c><00:12:18.539><c> is</c><00:12:18.720><c> very</c><00:12:19.000><c> much</c><00:12:19.259><c> related</c><00:12:19.740><c> to</c><00:12:20.000><c> the</c><00:12:20.159><c> word</c><00:12:20.860><c> logic.</c>

00:12:22.899 --> 00:12:24.860
In<00:12:22.899><c> fact,</c><00:12:23.220><c> we</c><00:12:23.320><c> get</c><00:12:23.480><c> our</c><00:12:23.700><c> English</c><00:12:24.080><c> word</c><00:12:24.419><c> logic</c>

00:12:24.860 --> 00:12:27.559
from<00:12:25.259><c> that</c><00:12:25.620><c> word</c><00:12:26.159><c> reasonable.</c>

00:12:28.259 --> 00:12:30.039
That's<00:12:28.639><c> what</c><00:12:28.799><c> it</c><00:12:28.980><c> means.</c>

00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:32.659
It's<00:12:31.179><c> not</c><00:12:31.419><c> suggesting</c><00:12:31.960><c> that</c>

00:12:32.659 --> 00:12:35.840
there's<00:12:32.879><c> a</c><00:12:33.080><c> sort</c><00:12:33.200><c> of</c><00:12:33.820><c> nice</c><00:12:34.120><c> in</c><00:12:34.320><c>-between</c><00:12:34.679><c> position</c><00:12:35.279><c> in</c><00:12:35.539><c> Christ</c>

00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:38.019
where<00:12:36.259><c> you</c><00:12:36.480><c> sort</c><00:12:36.659><c> of</c><00:12:36.759><c> do</c><00:12:36.860><c> your</c><00:12:37.019><c> reasonable</c><00:12:37.580><c> share,</c>

00:12:38.259 --> 00:12:40.120
like<00:12:38.259><c> we</c><00:12:38.419><c> might</c><00:12:38.580><c> use</c><00:12:38.779><c> the</c><00:12:38.860><c> word</c><00:12:39.059><c> today.</c>

00:12:40.820 --> 00:12:43.519
He's<00:12:41.019><c> saying</c><00:12:41.259><c> that</c><00:12:41.480><c> to</c><00:12:41.840><c> live</c><00:12:42.120><c> the</c><00:12:42.399><c> total</c><00:12:42.860><c> sacrifice,</c>

00:12:43.700 --> 00:12:47.539
the<00:12:43.879><c> living</c><00:12:44.240><c> sacrifice,</c><00:12:45.320><c> is</c><00:12:45.759><c> entirely</c><00:12:46.299><c> reasonable.</c>

00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:50.080
People<00:12:48.080><c> don't</c><00:12:48.279><c> always</c><00:12:48.519><c> think</c><00:12:48.740><c> that</c><00:12:48.980><c> way,</c><00:12:49.200><c> do</c><00:12:49.299><c> they?</c>

00:12:50.299 --> 00:12:52.340
Somebody<00:12:50.580><c> stands</c><00:12:50.919><c> up</c><00:12:51.139><c> on</c><00:12:51.279><c> the</c><00:12:51.419><c> platform</c><00:12:51.759><c> sometimes</c>

00:12:54.259 --> 00:12:56.279
about<00:12:54.460><c> what</c><00:12:54.639><c> our</c><00:12:54.940><c> service</c><00:12:55.279><c> in</c><00:12:55.440><c> Christ</c><00:12:55.840><c> ought</c><00:12:56.000><c> to</c><00:12:56.159><c> be,</c>

00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:57.220
that<00:12:56.440><c> it</c><00:12:56.539><c> should</c><00:12:56.620><c> be</c><00:12:56.960><c> total.</c>

00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:00.820
Others<00:12:57.860><c> go</c><00:12:58.059><c> out</c><00:12:58.179><c> and</c><00:12:58.179><c> say,</c><00:12:58.279><c> oh,</c><00:12:58.500><c> he's</c><00:12:58.659><c> a</c><00:12:58.740><c> bit</c><00:12:59.100><c> of</c><00:12:59.259><c> an</c><00:12:59.659><c> extremist.</c>

00:13:00.820 --> 00:13:04.279
He's<00:13:01.320><c> the</c><00:13:01.320><c> Apostle's</c><00:13:01.899><c> greatest</c><00:13:02.299><c> extremist</c><00:13:02.879><c> that</c><00:13:03.039><c> ever</c><00:13:03.299><c> was.</c>

00:13:04.740 --> 00:13:06.419
He<00:13:04.940><c> says</c><00:13:05.159><c> that's</c><00:13:05.559><c> perfectly</c><00:13:05.860><c> reasonable.</c>

00:13:06.799 --> 00:13:09.019
Any<00:13:07.019><c> other</c><00:13:07.240><c> thing</c><00:13:07.379><c> is</c><00:13:07.580><c> illogical.</c>

00:13:09.139 --> 00:13:10.720
He<00:13:09.259><c> says</c><00:13:09.440><c> it's</c><00:13:09.779><c> logical</c><00:13:10.299><c> for</c><00:13:10.480><c> us</c>

00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:13.500
to<00:13:10.919><c> give</c><00:13:11.080><c> our</c><00:13:11.460><c> total</c><00:13:11.840><c> service</c><00:13:12.259><c> to</c><00:13:12.519><c> Christ.</c>

00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:17.440
In<00:13:13.820><c> 2nd</c><00:13:14.799><c> Corinthians</c><00:13:14.799><c> 5,</c><00:13:15.639><c> verse</c><00:13:15.919><c> 13,</c><00:13:16.500><c> he</c><00:13:16.500><c> says,</c>

whether<00:13:17.500><c> we</c><00:13:17.879><c> be</c><00:13:18.139><c> beside</c><00:13:18.899><c> ourselves,</c><00:13:19.519><c> it</c><00:13:19.639><c> is</c><00:13:19.860><c> to</c><00:13:20.039><c> God,</c>

I<00:13:30.840><c> beseech</c><00:13:31.360><c> you</c><00:13:31.519><c> by</c><00:13:31.740><c> the</c><00:13:32.000><c> mercies</c><00:13:32.360><c> of</c><00:13:32.639><c> God.</c>

The<00:14:18.679><c> sacrifice</c><00:14:19.419><c> is</c><00:14:20.059><c> that</c><00:14:20.259><c> which</c><00:14:20.419><c> is</c><00:14:20.720><c> offered.</c>

00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:22.860
It<00:14:21.059><c> is</c><00:14:21.179><c> that</c><00:14:21.399><c> which</c><00:14:21.580><c> is</c><00:14:21.879><c> dead.</c>

00:14:23.700 --> 00:14:26.500
And<00:14:23.740><c> Paul</c><00:14:24.399><c> speaks</c><00:14:24.799><c> about</c><00:14:25.139><c> presenting</c><00:14:25.759><c> our</c><00:14:26.120><c> bodies</c>

00:14:26.500 --> 00:14:29.700

00:14:41.419 --> 00:14:43.120
as<00:14:41.620><c> we</c><00:14:41.799><c> shall</c><00:14:42.100><c> see,</c>

00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:46.480

00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:49.899
because<00:14:46.779><c> all</c><00:14:47.120><c> they</c><00:14:47.340><c> knew</c><00:14:47.539><c> about</c><00:14:47.820><c> was</c><00:14:48.659><c> dead</c><00:14:49.019><c> sacrifices.</c>

You<00:14:50.759><c> offered</c><00:14:51.080><c> them,</c><00:14:51.440><c> and</c><00:14:51.500><c> they</c><00:14:51.639><c> were</c><00:14:51.860><c> consumed,</c>

00:14:52.500 --> 00:14:53.720
and<00:14:52.620><c> that</c><00:14:52.720><c> was</c><00:14:52.940><c> that.</c>

00:14:54.279 --> 00:14:57.320
And<00:14:54.419><c> now</c><00:14:54.580><c> he's</c><00:14:54.740><c> speaking</c><00:14:54.960><c> about</c><00:14:55.200><c> a</c><00:14:55.559><c> living</c><00:14:55.960><c> sacrifice.</c>

00:14:58.100 --> 00:15:00.700
And<00:14:58.179><c> yet</c><00:14:58.320><c> the</c><00:14:58.580><c> law</c><00:14:58.840><c> had</c><00:14:59.179><c> tried</c><00:14:59.620><c> to</c><00:14:59.919><c> show</c><00:15:00.059><c> that</c><00:15:00.299><c> principle,</c>

00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:04.720
You<00:15:03.600><c> remember</c><00:15:03.700><c> on</c><00:15:03.879><c> the</c><00:15:04.019><c> Day</c><00:15:04.200><c> of</c><00:15:04.379><c> Atonement,</c>

there<00:15:04.879><c> were</c><00:15:05.159><c> two</c><00:15:05.519><c> goats,</c><00:15:05.940><c> weren't</c><00:15:06.120><c> there?</c>

00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:09.960
The<00:15:07.879><c> one</c><00:15:08.080><c> was</c><00:15:08.559><c> slain,</c><00:15:08.860><c> and</c><00:15:09.080><c> then,</c>

00:15:10.379 --> 00:15:13.440
with<00:15:10.539><c> the</c><00:15:10.820><c> conduct</c><00:15:11.220><c> of</c><00:15:11.399><c> that</c><00:15:11.700><c> one</c><00:15:11.919><c> onto</c><00:15:12.340><c> the</c><00:15:12.700><c> other</c><00:15:13.059><c> one,</c>

00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:16.740
the<00:15:14.080><c> sins</c><00:15:14.259><c> of</c><00:15:14.440><c> Israel</c><00:15:14.820><c> placed</c><00:15:15.559><c> upon</c><00:15:15.879><c> its</c><00:15:16.299><c> head,</c>

00:15:16.740 --> 00:15:20.399
it<00:15:17.320><c> was</c><00:15:17.860><c> sent</c><00:15:18.200><c> away</c><00:15:18.799><c> into</c><00:15:19.179><c> the</c><00:15:19.379><c> wilderness.</c>

00:15:21.659 --> 00:15:24.559
So<00:15:21.899><c> far</c><00:15:22.279><c> had</c><00:15:22.480><c> he</c><00:15:22.740><c> taken</c><00:15:23.159><c> our</c><00:15:23.580><c> sins</c><00:15:23.919><c> from</c><00:15:24.200><c> us,</c>

00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:30.820

00:15:35.139 --> 00:15:36.720

00:15:38.679 --> 00:15:40.980
went<00:15:38.899><c> to</c><00:15:39.100><c> the</c><00:15:39.299><c> right</c><00:15:39.620><c> hand</c><00:15:39.840><c> of</c><00:15:40.000><c> his</c><00:15:40.179><c> father</c>

00:15:40.980 --> 00:15:44.799

00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:48.559
So<00:15:46.639><c> the</c><00:15:46.779><c> Lord</c><00:15:47.039><c> tried</c><00:15:47.799><c> to</c><00:15:48.100><c> do</c><00:15:48.299><c> that,</c>

00:15:48.700 --> 00:15:52.620

00:15:55.360 --> 00:15:59.700
was<00:15:56.019><c> placed</c><00:15:56.460><c> upon</c><00:15:57.259><c> the</c><00:15:58.679><c> bird</c><00:15:58.960><c> that</c><00:15:59.100><c> was</c><00:15:59.360><c> then</c>

00:15:59.700 --> 00:16:03.600

00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:06.440
The<00:16:04.320><c> other</c><00:16:04.500><c> one</c><00:16:04.600><c> was</c><00:16:04.960><c> slain</c><00:16:05.220><c> over</c><00:16:05.559><c> living</c><00:16:05.940><c> water,</c>

00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:08.720

00:16:08.860 --> 00:16:10.779
But<00:16:09.059><c> because</c><00:16:09.299><c> an</c><00:16:09.539><c> animal</c><00:16:09.740><c> cannot</c><00:16:10.019><c> be</c><00:16:10.360><c> resurrected,</c>

00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:15.559
until<00:16:12.659><c> Christ</c><00:16:13.100><c> came</c><00:16:13.379><c> and</c><00:16:13.500><c> He</c><00:16:13.779><c> was</c><00:16:14.200><c> a</c><00:16:14.460><c> living</c><00:16:14.799><c> sacrifice.</c>

00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:18.320
He<00:16:16.059><c> rose</c><00:16:16.539><c> out</c><00:16:16.860><c> of</c><00:16:17.019><c> death,</c><00:16:17.299><c> and</c><00:16:17.379><c> so</c><00:16:17.500><c> that</c><00:16:17.820><c> spirit,</c>

00:16:21.100 --> 00:16:23.200
So<00:16:21.200><c> that</c><00:16:21.340><c> we</c><00:16:21.500><c> die</c><00:16:21.860><c> daily,</c><00:16:22.399><c> says</c><00:16:22.480><c> the</c><00:16:22.700><c> Apostle</c><00:16:23.000><c> Paul,</c>

00:16:23.500 --> 00:16:25.620
nevertheless<00:16:23.779><c> I</c><00:16:24.240><c> live,</c><00:16:25.100><c> yet</c><00:16:25.220><c> not</c><00:16:25.419><c> I,</c>

00:16:28.259 --> 00:16:31.159
That's<00:16:28.720><c> the</c><00:16:28.919><c> sense</c><00:16:29.200><c> in</c><00:16:29.399><c> which</c><00:16:29.559><c> the</c><00:16:29.779><c> Apostle</c><00:16:30.120><c> is</c><00:16:30.259><c> speaking.</c>

00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:35.539
I<00:16:32.559><c> present,</c><00:16:33.080><c> He</c><00:16:33.299><c> says,</c><00:16:33.879><c> therefore,</c><00:16:34.399><c> your</c><00:16:34.519><c> bodies.</c>

00:16:36.100 --> 00:16:38.519
Why<00:16:36.299><c> do</c><00:16:36.460><c> you</c><00:16:36.519><c> say</c><00:16:36.580><c> our</c><00:16:36.860><c> bodies,</c><00:16:37.419><c> my</c><00:16:37.539><c> dear</c><00:16:37.720><c> brothers</c><00:16:37.960><c> and</c><00:16:38.120><c> sisters?</c>

00:16:38.860 --> 00:16:40.960
Because<00:16:39.019><c> He</c><00:16:39.120><c> just</c><00:16:39.419><c> wants</c><00:16:39.600><c> our</c><00:16:39.820><c> bodies.</c>

00:16:41.240 --> 00:16:43.039
Surely<00:16:41.700><c> the</c><00:16:42.019><c> body</c><00:16:42.360><c> there</c><00:16:42.600><c> is</c><00:16:42.820><c> standing</c>

00:16:46.019 --> 00:16:48.340
That<00:16:46.179><c> by</c><00:16:46.419><c> the</c><00:16:46.679><c> mercies</c><00:16:47.039><c> of</c><00:16:47.259><c> God</c><00:16:47.539><c> we</c><00:16:47.799><c> present</c>

00:23:40.180 --> 00:23:41.880
that's<00:23:40.539><c> why</c><00:23:40.720><c> so</c><00:23:41.019><c> often</c><00:23:41.339><c> we</c><00:23:41.539><c> find</c>

00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:44.299
that<00:23:42.059><c> they</c><00:23:42.200><c> get</c><00:23:42.500><c> to</c><00:23:43.140><c> their</c><00:23:43.460><c> forties</c>

00:23:53.319 --> 00:23:55.799
They've<00:23:53.619><c> lost</c><00:23:53.859><c> all</c><00:23:54.480><c> idealism.</c>

00:23:56.859 --> 00:23:58.480
That's<00:23:57.299><c> why</c><00:23:57.460><c> in</c><00:23:57.559><c> places</c><00:23:57.859><c> like</c><00:23:58.119><c> Japan</c>

00:24:07.940 --> 00:24:09.380
Why<00:24:07.940><c> don't</c><00:24:08.059><c> we</c><00:24:08.279><c> learn?</c>

00:24:10.059 --> 00:24:11.359
Why<00:24:10.160><c> do</c><00:24:10.259><c> we</c><00:24:10.359><c> want</c><00:24:10.539><c> part</c><00:24:10.839><c> of</c><00:24:10.980><c> that</c><00:24:11.140><c> then?</c>

00:24:23.900 --> 00:24:27.160

You<00:26:32.140><c> know,</c><00:26:32.400><c> there</c><00:26:32.420><c> was</c><00:26:32.640><c> a</c><00:26:32.859><c> time</c><00:26:33.059><c> when</c><00:26:33.279><c> Christ</c><00:26:33.480><c> the</c><00:26:33.579><c> Delphin</c>

00:26:35.019 --> 00:26:38.059

when<00:28:05.900><c> they</c><00:28:06.339><c> were</c><00:28:06.539><c> in</c><00:28:06.700><c> the</c><00:28:07.059><c> train</c><00:28:07.319><c> or</c><00:28:07.480><c> wherever</c><00:28:07.619><c> it</c><00:28:07.839><c> might</c><00:28:08.019><c> be.</c>

00:28:08.940 --> 00:28:10.960
That's<00:28:09.339><c> the</c><00:28:09.460><c> life</c><00:28:09.640><c> of</c><00:28:09.859><c> today.</c>

00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:14.339
Nor<00:28:12.119><c> did</c><00:28:12.200><c> they</c><00:28:12.339><c> get</c><00:28:12.500><c> in</c><00:28:12.640><c> the</c><00:28:12.819><c> car</c><00:28:13.000><c> and</c><00:28:13.099><c> have</c><00:28:13.339><c> knobs</c><00:28:13.660><c> to</c><00:28:13.940><c> switch</c><00:28:14.220><c> on</c>

00:28:14.339 --> 00:28:16.839
because<00:28:14.539><c> they</c><00:28:14.920><c> thought</c><00:28:15.259><c> about</c><00:28:15.740><c> something.</c>

00:28:17.099 --> 00:28:18.099
You<00:28:17.279><c> see?</c>

00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:19.279
And<00:28:18.700><c> that's</c><00:28:18.920><c> what's</c><00:28:19.119><c> happening.</c>

00:28:19.339 --> 00:28:21.859
You<00:28:19.420><c> won't</c><00:28:19.660><c> buy</c><00:28:20.039><c> a</c><00:28:20.180><c> car</c><00:28:20.299><c> today</c><00:28:20.480><c> unless</c><00:28:20.700><c> it's</c><00:28:20.839><c> got</c><00:28:21.059><c> radio</c><00:28:21.400><c> in</c><00:28:21.640><c> it.</c>

00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:23.299
True?

00:28:24.220 --> 00:28:25.480
It's<00:28:24.380><c> hardly</c><00:28:24.500><c> a</c><00:28:24.720><c> car</c><00:28:24.819><c> that's</c><00:28:25.039><c> produced.</c>

It<00:28:25.579><c> wouldn't</c><00:28:25.839><c> sell.</c>

00:28:26.259 --> 00:28:29.359
But<00:28:26.680><c> a</c><00:28:26.900><c> radio</c><00:28:27.059><c> could</c><00:28:27.200><c> be</c><00:28:27.359><c> listening</c><00:28:27.839><c> to</c><00:28:28.119><c> something.</c>

00:28:29.579 --> 00:28:31.619
You<00:28:29.839><c> stop</c><00:28:29.940><c> at</c><00:28:30.099><c> the</c><00:28:30.259><c> lights,</c><00:28:30.579><c> the</c><00:28:30.720><c> car's</c><00:28:31.079><c> next</c><00:28:31.279><c> to</c><00:28:31.400><c> you,</c>

00:28:31.799 --> 00:28:34.339
there<00:28:31.920><c> it</c><00:28:32.059><c> is</c><00:28:32.279><c> jangling</c><00:28:32.720><c> away</c><00:28:33.000><c> at</c><00:28:33.099><c> some</c><00:28:33.380><c> trash</c><00:28:33.839><c> music.</c>

00:28:34.720 --> 00:28:37.359
The<00:28:34.960><c> world</c><00:28:35.119><c> can't</c><00:28:35.480><c> just</c><00:28:35.680><c> leave</c><00:28:35.819><c> it</c><00:28:36.019><c> alone</c><00:28:36.359><c> if</c><00:28:36.559><c> the</c><00:28:36.799><c> wife's</c><00:28:37.099><c> home.</c>

00:28:37.539 --> 00:28:39.819
She's<00:28:37.839><c> got</c><00:28:37.920><c> to</c><00:28:38.140><c> have</c><00:28:38.140><c> the</c><00:28:38.359><c> radio</c><00:28:38.619><c> on</c><00:28:38.920><c> all</c><00:28:39.180><c> day</c><00:28:39.480><c> long.</c>

00:28:39.920 --> 00:28:41.539
Can't<00:28:40.359><c> think</c><00:28:40.640><c> anymore.</c>

00:28:42.299 --> 00:28:43.759
And<00:28:42.420><c> who's</c><00:28:42.599><c> on</c><00:28:42.779><c> the</c><00:28:42.940><c> radio?</c>

00:28:44.440 --> 00:28:46.619
Well,<00:28:44.619><c> yours</c><00:28:44.799><c> is</c><00:28:44.980><c> not</c><00:28:45.119><c> as</c><00:28:45.339><c> bad</c><00:28:45.480><c> as</c><00:28:45.700><c> ours.</c>

00:28:47.220 --> 00:28:51.519
But<00:28:47.400><c> home</c><00:28:47.579><c> is</c><00:28:47.779><c> just</c><00:28:47.960><c> a</c><00:28:48.059><c> lot</c><00:28:48.160><c> of</c><00:28:48.720><c> very</c><00:28:49.220><c> worldly</c><00:28:49.740><c> evil,</c>

cursed<00:28:52.740><c> material</c><00:28:53.359><c> will,</c>

00:28:54.900 --> 00:28:56.980

00:28:57.119 --> 00:29:00.160
that's<00:28:57.460><c> supposed</c><00:28:57.819><c> to</c><00:28:58.099><c> be</c><00:28:58.779><c> renewed.</c>

00:29:01.339 --> 00:29:03.000
And<00:29:01.480><c> there</c><00:29:01.599><c> we</c><00:29:01.680><c> are</c><00:29:01.819><c> listening</c><00:29:02.059><c> to</c><00:29:02.259><c> these</c><00:29:02.539><c> clowns</c>

00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:05.480

00:29:06.920 --> 00:29:09.440
That's<00:29:07.339><c> why</c><00:29:07.559><c> they</c><00:29:07.799><c> are</c><00:29:07.980><c> in</c><00:29:08.140><c> their</c><00:29:08.299><c> positions.</c>

00:29:09.740 --> 00:29:11.880
When<00:29:09.859><c> they</c><00:29:10.019><c> go</c><00:29:10.220><c> to</c><00:29:10.380><c> the</c><00:29:10.579><c> management</c><00:29:10.980><c> of</c><00:29:11.220><c> the</c><00:29:11.480><c> radio,</c>

00:29:12.259 --> 00:29:14.180
they've<00:29:12.500><c> got</c><00:29:12.619><c> to</c><00:29:12.759><c> prove</c><00:29:12.960><c> that</c><00:29:13.119><c> they're</c><00:29:13.400><c> a</c><00:29:13.660><c> personality.</c>

00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:15.940
A<00:29:14.519><c> personality</c><00:29:14.859><c> of</c><00:29:15.160><c> what?</c>

00:29:16.200 --> 00:29:18.259
The<00:29:16.420><c> lust</c><00:29:16.660><c> of</c><00:29:16.859><c> the</c><00:29:17.000><c> flesh,</c><00:29:17.380><c> the</c><00:29:17.480><c> lust</c><00:29:17.660><c> of</c><00:29:17.900><c> the</c><00:29:18.059><c> eyes,</c>

00:29:19.019 --> 00:29:20.759
I<00:29:19.099><c> guess</c><00:29:19.180><c> that's</c><00:29:19.359><c> what</c><00:29:19.500><c> the</c><00:29:19.660><c> world</c><00:29:19.819><c> wants.</c>

00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:22.119
They<00:29:21.579><c> don't</c><00:29:21.799><c> say,</c>

00:30:40.019 --> 00:30:43.079
you<00:30:40.700><c> could</c><00:30:40.940><c> become</c><00:30:41.720><c> entirely</c><00:30:42.500><c> involved.</c>

00:30:43.220 --> 00:30:46.160
You<00:30:43.220><c> had</c><00:30:43.480><c> a</c><00:30:43.680><c> first</c><00:30:43.900><c> class</c><00:30:44.240><c> seat</c><00:30:44.500><c> in</c><00:30:44.700><c> the</c><00:30:44.900><c> audience.</c>

00:30:46.460 --> 00:30:47.500

00:30:50.519 --> 00:30:53.539
And<00:30:50.740><c> we</c><00:30:50.900><c> all</c><00:30:51.119><c> became</c><00:30:51.480><c> involved</c><00:30:51.920><c> in</c><00:30:52.119><c> things</c><00:30:52.400><c> like</c><00:30:52.720><c> that.</c>

00:30:53.579 --> 00:30:55.700
The<00:30:53.839><c> attraction</c><00:30:54.220><c> was</c><00:30:54.460><c> there</c><00:30:54.700><c> anyway.</c>

00:30:56.180 --> 00:30:58.799
And<00:30:56.299><c> you</c><00:30:56.359><c> know</c><00:30:56.460><c> one</c><00:30:56.599><c> of</c><00:30:56.700><c> the</c><00:30:56.900><c> saddest</c><00:30:57.319><c> things</c><00:30:57.599><c> I</c><00:30:57.819><c> believe</c>

00:30:59.099 --> 00:31:01.579
is<00:30:59.599><c> that</c><00:30:59.819><c> we</c><00:30:59.980><c> never</c><00:31:00.359><c> saw</c><00:31:00.640><c> that</c><00:31:01.180><c> clearly,</c>

saw<00:31:02.140><c> the</c><00:31:02.380><c> film,</c><00:31:02.559><c> but</c><00:31:02.700><c> we</c><00:31:02.880><c> never</c><00:31:03.099><c> saw</c><00:31:03.279><c> the</c><00:31:03.500><c> principle</c><00:31:03.920><c> clearly,</c>

00:31:04.740 --> 00:31:07.420
that<00:31:04.940><c> that</c><00:31:05.140><c> had</c><00:31:05.539><c> devastating</c><00:31:06.220><c> power,</c>

00:31:08.339 --> 00:31:11.359
tremendous<00:31:08.819><c> potential</c><00:31:09.299><c> to</c><00:31:09.700><c> rip</c><00:31:09.920><c> our</c><00:31:10.240><c> brotherhood</c><00:31:10.619><c> to</c><00:31:10.859><c> pieces.</c>

00:31:11.779 --> 00:31:13.740
And<00:31:11.839><c> I'll</c><00:31:12.160><c> tell</c><00:31:12.259><c> you</c><00:31:12.380><c> honestly</c><00:31:12.660><c> what</c><00:31:12.880><c> happened</c><00:31:13.119><c> in</c><00:31:13.359><c> Adelaide.</c>

00:31:13.960 --> 00:31:15.140
I<00:31:14.279><c> know</c><00:31:14.539><c> what</c><00:31:14.839><c> happened.</c>

00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:17.599
The<00:31:15.539><c> Bible</c><00:31:15.920><c> class</c><00:31:16.200><c> figures</c><00:31:16.480><c> went</c><00:31:16.859><c> zoof.</c>

00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:19.359
And<00:31:18.200><c> you</c><00:31:18.279><c> could</c><00:31:18.480><c> go</c><00:31:18.680><c> around</c><00:31:18.880><c> the</c><00:31:19.160><c> suburbs</c>

00:31:19.359 --> 00:31:21.480
and<00:31:19.759><c> you</c><00:31:19.779><c> could</c><00:31:20.079><c> see</c><00:31:20.240><c> Wednesday</c><00:31:20.619><c> night</c><00:31:20.839><c> on</c><00:31:20.980><c> your</c><00:31:21.160><c> way</c><00:31:21.279><c> in</c>

00:31:21.480 --> 00:31:24.740
that<00:31:21.680><c> there</c><00:31:21.839><c> was</c><00:31:22.119><c> a</c><00:31:22.319><c> blue</c><00:31:22.539><c> light</c><00:31:22.880><c> in</c><00:31:23.460><c> that</c><00:31:24.200><c> lounge</c><00:31:24.579><c> room</c>

00:31:24.740 --> 00:31:27.220
where<00:31:24.920><c> before</c><00:31:25.700><c> there</c><00:31:26.619><c> was</c><00:31:26.839><c> darkness</c>

00:31:27.220 --> 00:31:29.299

00:31:29.819 --> 00:31:31.000
And<00:31:30.000><c> that</c><00:31:30.160><c> was</c><00:31:30.480><c> universal.</c>

00:31:31.079 --> 00:31:32.500
There's<00:31:31.279><c> no</c><00:31:31.400><c> use</c><00:31:31.579><c> denying</c><00:31:31.920><c> that.</c>

00:31:32.500 --> 00:31:33.920
That's<00:31:32.880><c> what</c><00:31:33.059><c> happened.</c>

00:31:34.500 --> 00:31:36.019
The<00:31:35.059><c> Apostle</c><00:31:35.460><c> Paul</c><00:31:35.740><c> says,</c>

00:31:36.359 --> 00:31:40.819

00:31:42.279 --> 00:31:42.940
Why?

00:31:43.599 --> 00:31:45.319
The<00:31:43.740><c> Wimbledon</c><00:31:44.079><c> champion</c><00:31:44.440><c> hits</c><00:31:44.720><c> the</c><00:31:44.960><c> ball</c>

00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:48.079
and<00:31:46.119><c> there's</c><00:31:46.380><c> a</c><00:31:46.460><c> hundred</c><00:31:46.779><c> million</c><00:31:47.119><c> eyes</c><00:31:47.380><c> around</c><00:31:47.640><c> the</c><00:31:47.839><c> world</c>

00:31:48.079 --> 00:31:49.920
watching<00:31:48.720><c> it.</c>

00:31:50.339 --> 00:31:52.259
Conform<00:31:50.900><c> to</c><00:31:51.119><c> this</c><00:31:51.380><c> world.</c>

00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:54.880
Absolutely<00:31:53.200><c> on</c><00:31:53.420><c> the</c><00:31:53.619><c> same</c><00:31:53.920><c> circuit.</c>

00:31:55.559 --> 00:31:57.279
Exactly<00:31:55.940><c> the</c><00:31:56.200><c> same</c><00:31:56.359><c> as</c><00:31:56.460><c> the</c><00:31:56.640><c> next</c><00:31:56.859><c> door</c><00:31:57.019><c> neighbor</c>

00:31:57.279 --> 00:31:58.420

00:31:58.579 --> 00:31:59.500
And<00:31:58.700><c> there's</c><00:31:58.960><c> the</c><00:31:59.099><c> Christodilfe.</c>

00:31:59.700 --> 00:32:00.640
Exactly<00:32:00.099><c> the</c><00:32:00.380><c> same.</c>

00:32:00.640 --> 00:32:03.180
You<00:32:01.420><c> know,</c><00:32:02.299><c> when</c><00:32:02.460><c> it</c><00:32:02.579><c> comes</c><00:32:02.819><c> to</c><00:32:02.920><c> something</c>

00:32:03.180 --> 00:32:04.099
that's<00:32:03.380><c> really</c><00:32:03.700><c> exciting,</c>

00:32:04.460 --> 00:32:06.059
whether<00:32:04.500><c> it's</c><00:32:04.720><c> night</c><00:32:04.960><c> or</c><00:32:05.140><c> day,</c>

00:32:06.740 --> 00:32:07.759
what<00:32:06.839><c> about</c><00:32:07.160><c> America's</c><00:32:07.660><c> Cup?</c>

00:32:07.980 --> 00:32:09.700
Sorry,<00:32:08.240><c> Australia's</c><00:32:08.759><c> Cup.</c>

00:32:10.259 --> 00:32:11.640
I<00:32:10.259><c> think</c><00:32:10.420><c> that's</c><00:32:10.700><c> what</c><00:32:10.779><c> it's</c><00:32:10.920><c> called.</c>

00:32:13.059 --> 00:32:14.819
A<00:32:13.539><c> whole</c><00:32:13.720><c> bad</c><00:32:13.920><c> country</c><00:32:14.319><c> was</c><00:32:14.559><c> up.</c>

00:32:15.240 --> 00:32:17.000
If<00:32:15.420><c> you</c><00:32:15.599><c> weren't,</c><00:32:15.799><c> you</c><00:32:15.859><c> would</c><00:32:16.000><c> have</c><00:32:16.099><c> been</c><00:32:16.200><c> the</c><00:32:16.359><c> odd</c><00:32:16.519><c> man</c><00:32:16.680><c> there.</c>

00:32:17.380 --> 00:32:19.619
I'm<00:32:17.700><c> sure</c><00:32:17.900><c> that's</c><00:32:18.119><c> what</c><00:32:18.319><c> was</c><00:32:18.539><c> the</c><00:32:18.680><c> case.</c>

00:32:19.819 --> 00:32:22.859
And<00:32:20.019><c> so</c><00:32:20.200><c> there</c><00:32:20.380><c> have</c><00:32:20.619><c> come</c><00:32:20.900><c> these</c><00:32:21.339><c> increasing</c><00:32:21.960><c> waves</c>

00:32:22.859 --> 00:32:26.779

00:32:28.079 --> 00:32:30.019
Entertainment<00:32:28.559><c> as</c><00:32:28.819><c> it</c><00:32:28.980><c> could</c><00:32:29.200><c> never</c><00:32:29.579><c> have</c><00:32:29.859><c> been</c>

00:32:31.440 --> 00:32:33.220
And<00:32:31.579><c> it</c><00:32:31.660><c> doesn't</c><00:32:32.059><c> stop</c><00:32:32.380><c> there</c><00:32:32.599><c> at</c><00:32:32.799><c> the</c><00:32:33.000><c> theater</c>

Powerful<00:36:13.460><c> point,</c><00:36:13.780><c> that.</c>

You<00:36:59.860><c> might</c><00:37:00.099><c> like</c><00:37:00.320><c> your</c><00:37:00.519><c> tennis,</c><00:37:00.679><c> so</c><00:37:00.940><c> do</c><00:37:01.179><c> I.</c>

00:37:02.699 --> 00:37:04.599
But<00:37:02.980><c> we</c><00:37:03.099><c> don't</c><00:37:03.260><c> have</c><00:37:03.420><c> to</c><00:37:03.559><c> go</c><00:37:03.820><c> following</c><00:37:04.119><c> the</c><00:37:04.420><c> world</c>

00:37:05.320 --> 00:37:06.960
We<00:37:05.500><c> need</c><00:37:05.719><c> a</c><00:37:05.739><c> little</c><00:37:06.000><c> bit</c><00:37:06.219><c> of</c><00:37:06.340><c> exercise</c>

00:37:06.960 --> 00:37:10.219

00:37:10.519 --> 00:37:13.599
But<00:37:10.679><c> we</c><00:37:10.900><c> don't</c><00:37:11.159><c> need</c><00:37:11.400><c> to</c><00:37:11.619><c> bring</c><00:37:11.719><c> the</c><00:37:12.000><c> world</c><00:37:12.380><c> into</c><00:37:13.000><c> our</c><00:37:13.300><c> homes.</c>

00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:23.699
You<00:37:21.619><c> know,</c><00:37:21.719><c> when</c><00:37:21.880><c> I</c><00:37:21.980><c> was</c><00:37:22.139><c> with</c><00:37:22.280><c> you</c><00:37:22.400><c> last</c><00:37:22.739><c> time,</c>

00:37:24.179 --> 00:37:28.920
we<00:37:24.579><c> discussed</c><00:37:25.119><c> considerable</c><00:37:25.840><c> matters</c><00:37:26.320><c> about</c><00:37:27.019><c> the</c><00:37:27.920><c> family.</c>

00:37:30.380 --> 00:37:33.860

00:37:34.900 --> 00:37:37.199
It's<00:37:35.460><c> a</c><00:37:35.579><c> compilation</c><00:37:36.219><c> from</c><00:37:36.519><c> many</c><00:37:36.780><c> writers</c>

00:37:49.420 --> 00:37:51.159
When<00:37:49.639><c> we</c><00:37:49.820><c> were</c><00:37:49.980><c> trying</c><00:37:50.179><c> to</c><00:37:50.440><c> think</c><00:37:50.619><c> of</c><00:37:50.860><c> something</c>

00:37:51.159 --> 00:37:53.840

00:37:54.460 --> 00:37:56.360
there<00:37:54.579><c> came</c><00:37:54.920><c> to</c><00:37:55.219><c> be</c><00:37:55.619><c> the</c><00:37:55.900><c> resolution</c>

00:37:56.360 --> 00:37:58.780
that<00:37:56.500><c> there</c><00:37:56.679><c> could</c><00:37:56.860><c> be</c><00:37:57.099><c> nothing</c><00:37:57.320><c> else</c><00:37:57.679><c> than</c><00:37:57.920><c> that.</c>

00:37:59.079 --> 00:38:00.820
It<00:37:59.360><c> had</c><00:37:59.599><c> to</c><00:37:59.780><c> be,</c><00:37:59.900><c> didn't</c><00:38:00.199><c> it?</c>

00:38:00.820 --> 00:38:04.559
A<00:38:01.199><c> family</c><00:38:01.639><c> sitting</c><00:38:02.059><c> around</c><00:38:02.940><c> the</c><00:38:03.320><c> Word</c><00:38:03.559><c> of</c><00:38:03.739><c> God,</c>

00:38:09.199 --> 00:38:10.679
It<00:38:09.360><c> had</c><00:38:09.539><c> to</c><00:38:09.679><c> be</c><00:38:09.840><c> that.</c>

00:38:11.460 --> 00:38:13.280
That's<00:38:11.940><c> the</c><00:38:12.079><c> thing</c><00:38:12.199><c> that's</c><00:38:12.519><c> needed.</c>

00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:15.820
That's<00:38:14.260><c> the</c><00:38:14.380><c> thing</c><00:38:14.480><c> that's</c><00:38:15.019><c> desperately</c><00:38:15.500><c> wanted</c>

00:38:15.820 --> 00:38:17.219

00:38:19.760 --> 00:38:22.059
Be<00:38:20.039><c> decisive,</c><00:38:20.900><c> be</c><00:38:21.159><c> resolute</c><00:38:21.599><c> about</c><00:38:21.880><c> it.</c>

00:38:22.099 --> 00:38:25.880
And<00:38:22.239><c> the</c><00:38:22.400><c> blessings,</c><00:38:22.719><c> I'm</c><00:38:23.159><c> sure,</c><00:38:24.179><c> will</c><00:38:24.400><c> come</c><00:38:24.639><c> to</c><00:38:24.840><c> us</c><00:38:25.039><c> all.</c>

00:38:27.239 --> 00:38:31.159
You<00:38:27.739><c> know,</c><00:38:28.460><c> when</c><00:38:29.000><c> even</c><00:38:29.699><c> King</c><00:38:30.079><c> Saul,</c>

00:38:33.019 --> 00:38:35.280
who<00:38:33.199><c> was</c><00:38:33.400><c> not</c><00:38:33.619><c> a</c><00:38:33.840><c> spiritual</c><00:38:34.159><c> man,</c>

00:38:35.860 --> 00:38:37.480
there's<00:38:35.960><c> not</c><00:38:36.199><c> a</c><00:38:36.320><c> thing</c><00:38:36.619><c> said</c><00:38:36.820><c> about</c><00:38:37.039><c> his</c><00:38:37.300><c> heart,</c>

00:38:37.699 --> 00:38:40.579
about<00:38:37.760><c> his</c><00:38:38.000><c> shoulders,</c><00:38:38.440><c> yes,</c><00:38:38.659><c> but</c><00:38:38.800><c> not</c><00:38:39.000><c> about</c><00:38:39.179><c> his</c><00:38:39.440><c> heart.</c>

00:38:42.039 --> 00:38:44.639
When<00:38:42.260><c> he</c><00:38:42.519><c> went</c><00:38:42.659><c> into</c><00:38:42.880><c> the</c><00:38:43.099><c> company</c><00:38:43.420><c> of</c><00:38:43.639><c> the</c><00:38:43.840><c> prophets,</c>

00:38:44.880 --> 00:38:48.079
he<00:38:45.039><c> was</c><00:38:45.380><c> told</c><00:38:45.880><c> by</c><00:38:46.260><c> Samuel</c><00:38:46.659><c> that</c><00:38:47.099><c> when</c><00:38:47.420><c> you</c><00:38:47.760><c> do,</c>

00:38:48.360 --> 00:38:50.900
he<00:38:48.619><c> said,</c><00:38:49.239><c> you'll</c><00:38:49.480><c> become</c><00:38:49.820><c> another</c><00:38:50.519><c> man.</c>

00:38:50.980 --> 00:38:51.920
Remember<00:38:51.239><c> that</c><00:38:51.460><c> expression?</c>

00:38:52.360 --> 00:38:53.440
And<00:38:52.539><c> that's</c><00:38:52.659><c> what</c><00:38:52.820><c> happens</c><00:38:53.059><c> to</c><00:38:53.300><c> us.</c>

00:38:53.440 --> 00:38:54.760
Isn't<00:38:53.760><c> that</c><00:38:54.219><c> true?</c>

00:38:55.260 --> 00:38:57.219
It<00:38:55.360><c> is</c><00:38:55.679><c> true.</c><00:38:56.000><c> We</c><00:38:56.159><c> know</c><00:38:56.420><c> that's</c><00:38:56.719><c> true.</c>

00:38:57.659 --> 00:39:00.400
We<00:38:57.739><c> spend</c><00:38:58.039><c> time</c><00:38:58.599><c> at</c><00:38:58.860><c> Bible</c><00:38:59.199><c> school</c><00:38:59.599><c> or</c><00:38:59.860><c> at</c><00:39:00.059><c> home,</c>

00:39:00.699 --> 00:39:03.059
at<00:39:00.940><c> our</c><00:39:01.199><c> desk,</c><00:39:01.639><c> and</c><00:39:01.659><c> we</c><00:39:02.260><c> become</c><00:39:02.539><c> involved</c>

00:39:03.059 --> 00:39:05.119
with<00:39:03.380><c> some</c><00:39:03.599><c> of</c><00:39:03.840><c> the</c><00:39:03.900><c> thoughts</c><00:39:04.159><c> of</c><00:39:04.360><c> the</c><00:39:04.500><c> Word</c><00:39:04.719><c> of</c><00:39:04.840><c> God.</c>

00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:06.599
The<00:39:05.559><c> whole</c><00:39:05.840><c> thing</c><00:39:06.099><c> changes.</c>

00:39:06.679 --> 00:39:07.579
We<00:39:06.840><c> see</c><00:39:07.039><c> it</c><00:39:07.179><c> all</c><00:39:07.420><c> clear.</c>

00:39:07.659 --> 00:39:11.019
We<00:39:07.739><c> can</c><00:39:07.860><c> do</c><00:39:08.039><c> anything</c><00:39:08.460><c> then</c><00:39:09.079><c> for</c><00:39:09.360><c> the</c><00:39:09.559><c> service</c><00:39:09.840><c> of</c><00:39:10.119><c> Christ.</c>

00:39:12.280 --> 00:39:13.699
When<00:39:12.480><c> the</c><00:39:12.619><c> other</c><00:39:12.840><c> influences</c><00:39:13.260><c> come</c><00:39:13.539><c> in,</c>

00:39:13.820 --> 00:39:16.699
we<00:39:13.840><c> say,</c><00:39:14.059><c> oh,</c><00:39:14.320><c> well,</c><00:39:14.460><c> you</c><00:39:14.579><c> know,</c><00:39:15.400><c> that's</c><00:39:15.659><c> been</c><00:39:15.840><c> reasonable.</c>

00:39:17.519 --> 00:39:19.019
So<00:39:17.780><c> the</c><00:39:17.920><c> Word</c><00:39:18.219><c> changes</c><00:39:18.800><c> us.</c>

00:39:19.139 --> 00:39:20.539
It<00:39:19.380><c> renews</c><00:39:19.940><c> our</c><00:39:20.219><c> mind,</c>

00:39:20.800 --> 00:39:22.500
changes<00:39:21.099><c> us</c><00:39:21.340><c> into</c><00:39:21.500><c> a</c><00:39:21.719><c> different</c><00:39:21.960><c> person.</c>

00:39:22.500 --> 00:39:24.860
And<00:39:23.039><c> when</c><00:39:23.260><c> we</c><00:39:23.500><c> walk</c><00:39:23.719><c> like</c><00:39:24.019><c> that,</c><00:39:24.239><c> we</c><00:39:24.320><c> are</c><00:39:24.579><c> happy.</c>

00:39:24.960 --> 00:39:26.420

your<00:45:09.380><c> mind</c><00:45:09.739><c> tells</c><00:45:10.139><c> all</c><00:45:10.619><c> the</c><00:45:10.780><c> other</c><00:45:10.960><c> members</c>

00:45:11.179 --> 00:45:14.000
to<00:45:11.460><c> go</c><00:45:11.679><c> and</c><00:45:11.800><c> get</c><00:45:11.900><c> the</c><00:45:12.179><c> jumper</c><00:45:12.340><c> and</c><00:45:12.519><c> put</c><00:45:12.760><c> it</c><00:45:13.039><c> on.</c>

00:45:14.159 --> 00:45:16.000
It<00:45:14.300><c> works</c><00:45:14.480><c> together</c><00:45:14.860><c> beautifully.</c>

00:45:16.619 --> 00:45:18.599
Not<00:45:16.920><c> only</c><00:45:17.139><c> in</c><00:45:17.300><c> those</c><00:45:17.500><c> ways</c><00:45:17.739><c> in</c><00:45:17.880><c> which</c><00:45:18.039><c> we</c><00:45:18.300><c> know,</c>

00:45:21.219 --> 00:45:23.760
The<00:45:21.280><c> balance</c><00:45:21.739><c> of</c><00:45:22.039><c> all</c><00:45:22.320><c> the</c><00:45:22.679><c> glands</c><00:45:23.039><c> of</c><00:45:23.280><c> our</c><00:45:23.519><c> body</c>

00:45:24.179 --> 00:45:26.159
and<00:45:24.400><c> of</c><00:45:25.079><c> the</c><00:45:25.239><c> very</c><00:45:25.639><c> systems,</c>

00:45:26.300 --> 00:45:28.719
the<00:45:26.579><c> circulatory</c><00:45:27.159><c> system,</c><00:45:27.539><c> the</c><00:45:27.719><c> nervous</c><00:45:28.199><c> system,</c>

00:45:28.980 --> 00:45:31.639
they're<00:45:29.199><c> all</c><00:45:29.559><c> in</c><00:45:30.400><c> remarkable</c><00:45:31.179><c> balance.</c>

00:45:31.800 --> 00:45:33.059
And<00:45:31.900><c> only</c><00:45:32.019><c> when</c><00:45:32.199><c> something</c><00:45:32.500><c> goes</c><00:45:32.840><c> wrong</c>

00:45:33.059 --> 00:45:34.380
and<00:45:33.179><c> we</c><00:45:33.320><c> notice</c><00:45:33.559><c> how</c><00:45:33.860><c> wonderfully</c>

00:45:34.380 --> 00:45:36.559
the<00:45:34.800><c> body</c><00:45:35.059><c> works</c><00:45:35.440><c> together.</c>

00:45:36.820 --> 00:45:38.579
The<00:45:36.880><c> kidneys</c><00:45:37.179><c> taking</c><00:45:37.579><c> what</c><00:45:37.800><c> should</c><00:45:38.039><c> be</c><00:45:38.300><c> taken,</c>

00:45:38.800 --> 00:45:40.340
leaving<00:45:38.940><c> what</c><00:45:39.260><c> should</c><00:45:39.820><c> be</c><00:45:40.099><c> left,</c>

00:45:40.559 --> 00:45:41.800
the<00:45:40.739><c> liver</c><00:45:40.960><c> doing</c><00:45:41.219><c> its</c><00:45:41.599><c> part,</c>

00:45:42.039 --> 00:45:43.679
the<00:45:42.159><c> spleen</c><00:45:42.400><c> its</c><00:45:42.760><c> part,</c>

00:45:44.699 --> 00:45:46.500
the<00:45:44.840><c> lungs</c><00:45:45.079><c> taking</c><00:45:45.500><c> the</c><00:45:45.739><c> oxygen</c><00:45:46.059><c> from</c><00:45:46.300><c> the</c><00:45:46.420><c> air.</c>

00:45:46.519 --> 00:45:47.860
It's<00:45:46.699><c> a</c><00:45:46.940><c> marvelous</c><00:45:47.300><c> thing,</c><00:45:47.619><c> isn't</c><00:45:47.780><c> it?</c>

00:45:47.860 --> 00:45:49.119
What<00:45:48.079><c> a</c><00:45:48.340><c> figure!</c>

00:45:49.500 --> 00:45:50.539
The<00:45:49.599><c> more</c><00:45:49.780><c> you</c><00:45:49.900><c> think</c><00:45:50.139><c> about</c><00:45:50.380><c> it,</c>

00:45:50.539 --> 00:45:52.059
the<00:45:50.760><c> more</c><00:45:51.179><c> beautiful</c><00:45:51.559><c> it</c><00:45:51.780><c> becomes.</c>

00:45:52.219 --> 00:45:53.800
Now<00:45:52.320><c> that's</c><00:45:52.480><c> what</c><00:45:52.699><c> we</c><00:45:52.900><c> are.</c>

00:45:53.960 --> 00:45:55.739
We're<00:45:54.239><c> members</c><00:45:54.500><c> one</c><00:45:54.760><c> of</c><00:45:54.920><c> another.</c>

00:45:56.199 --> 00:45:57.539
So<00:45:56.380><c> we've</c><00:45:56.599><c> got</c><00:45:56.719><c> to</c><00:45:56.820><c> think</c><00:45:57.099><c> together</c>

00:45:57.539 --> 00:45:58.599
for<00:45:57.840><c> each</c><00:45:58.119><c> other's</c><00:45:58.480><c> good.</c>

00:45:58.679 --> 00:46:01.880
We've<00:45:58.780><c> got</c><00:45:58.860><c> to</c><00:45:59.000><c> protect</c><00:45:59.400><c> each</c><00:45:59.699><c> other</c><00:46:00.219><c> in</c><00:46:00.599><c> the</c><00:46:00.860><c> truth.</c>

00:46:02.440 --> 00:46:05.400
Protect<00:46:03.000><c> in</c><00:46:03.440><c> a</c><00:46:03.739><c> constructive</c><00:46:04.260><c> way.</c>

00:46:05.900 --> 00:46:09.559
Romans<00:46:06.159><c> 12</c><00:46:06.599><c> and</c><00:46:06.800><c> verse</c><00:46:07.039><c> 3.</c>

00:46:10.179 --> 00:46:11.300
Paul<00:46:10.280><c> says,</c>

00:46:12.000 --> 00:46:14.139
as<00:46:12.139><c> he</c><00:46:12.360><c> opens</c><00:46:12.559><c> up</c><00:46:12.800><c> this</c><00:46:13.000><c> section</c><00:46:13.380><c> about</c>

00:46:14.139 --> 00:46:16.480
many<00:46:14.639><c> members</c><00:46:15.119><c> and</c><00:46:15.579><c> yet</c><00:46:15.780><c> one</c><00:46:16.119><c> body,</c>

00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:19.260
he<00:46:17.199><c> says</c><00:46:17.440><c> there's</c><00:46:17.599><c> two</c><00:46:17.800><c> types</c><00:46:18.159><c> of</c><00:46:18.400><c> thinkers,</c>

00:46:19.719 --> 00:46:20.760
ecclesially.

00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:25.760
He<00:46:23.440><c> says</c><00:46:23.719><c> we</c><00:46:23.920><c> ought</c><00:46:24.199><c> not</c><00:46:24.480><c> to</c><00:46:24.760><c> think</c>

00:46:26.360 --> 00:46:32.119
more<00:46:27.079><c> highly</c><00:46:27.500><c> than</c><00:46:28.159><c> he</c><00:46:29.280><c> ought</c><00:46:29.619><c> to</c><00:46:29.940><c> think.</c>

00:46:33.340 --> 00:46:35.260
But<00:46:33.760><c> in</c><00:46:34.019><c> distinction</c><00:46:34.559><c> to</c><00:46:34.780><c> that,</c>

00:46:35.559 --> 00:46:38.880
but<00:46:35.739><c> to</c><00:46:36.019><c> think</c><00:46:37.400><c> soberly,</c>

00:46:39.079 --> 00:46:41.699
according<00:46:39.320><c> as</c><00:46:39.519><c> God</c><00:46:39.780><c> has</c><00:46:40.059><c> dealt</c><00:46:40.300><c> to</c><00:46:40.659><c> every</c><00:46:41.000><c> man</c>

00:46:41.699 --> 00:46:44.260
the<00:46:42.119><c> measure</c><00:46:42.559><c> of</c><00:46:43.280><c> faith.</c>

00:46:45.340 --> 00:46:48.699
Now<00:46:46.059><c> when</c><00:46:46.639><c> he</c><00:46:46.920><c> spoke</c><00:46:47.239><c> those</c><00:46:47.599><c> words,</c>

00:46:49.900 --> 00:46:53.559
I<00:46:49.960><c> believe</c><00:46:50.340><c> that</c><00:46:50.579><c> he</c><00:46:50.679><c> had</c><00:46:51.659><c> two</c><00:46:52.159><c> things</c><00:46:52.460><c> in</c><00:46:52.719><c> mind.</c>

00:46:53.719 --> 00:46:56.900
The<00:46:53.980><c> spirit</c><00:46:54.280><c> gifts,</c><00:46:54.659><c> the</c><00:46:54.840><c> miraculous</c><00:46:55.460><c> spirit</c><00:46:55.840><c> gifts,</c>

00:46:57.420 --> 00:46:59.780
and<00:46:57.579><c> then</c><00:46:57.860><c> more</c><00:46:58.219><c> generally</c><00:46:58.739><c> the</c><00:46:59.159><c> abilities</c>

00:46:59.780 --> 00:47:02.480
that<00:47:00.139><c> various</c><00:47:00.539><c> brethren</c><00:47:00.900><c> and</c><00:47:01.139><c> sisters</c><00:47:01.420><c> have.</c>

00:47:03.159 --> 00:47:04.800
You<00:47:03.280><c> see</c><00:47:03.400><c> there's</c><00:47:03.559><c> two</c><00:47:03.820><c> types</c><00:47:04.199><c> of</c><00:47:04.500><c> minds</c>

00:47:04.800 --> 00:47:07.380
in<00:47:05.019><c> respect</c><00:47:05.440><c> to</c><00:47:05.900><c> gifts</c><00:47:06.159><c> or</c><00:47:06.440><c> abilities.</c>

00:47:07.900 --> 00:47:10.599
There'll<00:47:08.159><c> be</c><00:47:08.300><c> the</c><00:47:08.559><c> mind</c><00:47:08.780><c> that</c><00:47:08.940><c> was</c><00:47:09.260><c> never</c><00:47:09.639><c> happy.</c>

00:47:11.400 --> 00:47:13.420
It's<00:47:11.679><c> always</c><00:47:12.119><c> thinking</c><00:47:12.519><c> more</c><00:47:13.000><c> highly</c>

00:47:13.420 --> 00:47:15.119
than<00:47:13.559><c> it</c><00:47:13.780><c> ought</c><00:47:13.980><c> to</c><00:47:14.199><c> think.</c>

00:47:16.099 --> 00:47:17.280
You<00:47:16.239><c> know</c><00:47:16.380><c> I've</c><00:47:16.579><c> heard</c><00:47:16.679><c> a</c><00:47:16.840><c> young</c><00:47:17.019><c> brother</c>

00:47:17.280 --> 00:47:19.340
for<00:47:17.480><c> example</c><00:47:17.940><c> say</c><00:47:18.300><c> this</c><00:47:18.619><c> and</c><00:47:18.800><c> told</c><00:47:19.079><c> me</c>

00:47:19.340 --> 00:47:20.460
in<00:47:19.440><c> fact</c><00:47:19.579><c> to</c><00:47:19.760><c> my</c><00:47:19.920><c> face,</c><00:47:20.219><c> he</c><00:47:20.219><c> said,</c>

00:47:20.920 --> 00:47:21.380
oh<00:47:20.960><c> look</c><00:47:21.159><c> he</c><00:47:21.260><c> said,</c>

00:47:21.539 --> 00:47:23.460
well<00:47:21.539><c> I</c><00:47:21.659><c> said</c><00:47:21.820><c> could</c><00:47:22.159><c> you</c><00:47:22.360><c> perhaps</c><00:47:22.699><c> help</c><00:47:23.119><c> us</c><00:47:23.340><c> out.</c>

00:47:23.539 --> 00:47:24.920
Look<00:47:23.699><c> he</c><00:47:23.780><c> said</c><00:47:23.880><c> I'm</c><00:47:24.119><c> going</c><00:47:24.219><c> to</c><00:47:24.280><c> do</c><00:47:24.519><c> that</c><00:47:24.719><c> work,</c>

00:47:25.079 --> 00:47:26.000
because<00:47:25.219><c> if</c><00:47:25.400><c> I</c><00:47:25.500><c> do</c><00:47:25.619><c> that</c><00:47:25.820><c> work</c>

00:47:26.000 --> 00:47:27.980
I'll<00:47:26.159><c> always</c><00:47:26.719><c> be</c><00:47:27.059><c> doing</c><00:47:27.260><c> that</c><00:47:27.619><c> work.</c>

00:47:28.280 --> 00:47:31.860
Wow,<00:47:28.800><c> what</c><00:47:28.960><c> an</c><00:47:29.219><c> insight</c><00:47:29.599><c> into</c><00:47:30.800><c> his</c><00:47:31.039><c> thinking.</c>

00:47:32.420 --> 00:47:33.559
There's<00:47:32.579><c> probably</c><00:47:32.820><c> a</c><00:47:32.960><c> lot</c><00:47:33.059><c> of</c><00:47:33.159><c> young</c><00:47:33.360><c> men</c>

00:47:33.559 --> 00:47:35.599
that<00:47:33.760><c> think</c><00:47:33.900><c> that</c><00:47:34.199><c> way</c><00:47:34.440><c> from</c><00:47:34.679><c> time</c><00:47:34.940><c> to</c><00:47:35.139><c> time.</c>

00:47:35.900 --> 00:47:39.219
If<00:47:36.000><c> they</c><00:47:36.219><c> do</c><00:47:36.820><c> lowly</c><00:47:38.039><c> work</c><00:47:38.460><c> as</c><00:47:38.579><c> they</c><00:47:38.840><c> see</c><00:47:39.039><c> it,</c>

00:47:39.239 --> 00:47:40.480
then<00:47:39.380><c> they</c><00:47:39.500><c> won't</c><00:47:39.659><c> be</c><00:47:39.840><c> on</c><00:47:39.960><c> the</c><00:47:40.139><c> platform</c>

00:47:40.480 --> 00:47:41.000
of<00:47:40.760><c> something,</c>

00:47:41.099 --> 00:47:42.360
they<00:47:41.139><c> won't</c><00:47:41.280><c> be</c><00:47:41.440><c> an</c><00:47:41.599><c> arranging</c><00:47:41.960><c> brother.</c>

00:47:42.360 --> 00:47:44.940
I<00:47:43.099><c> don't</c><00:47:43.239><c> know</c><00:47:43.340><c> what</c><00:47:43.539><c> it</c><00:47:43.739><c> is.</c>

00:47:45.179 --> 00:47:48.119
But<00:47:45.340><c> they're</c><00:47:45.599><c> thinking</c><00:47:45.960><c> more</c><00:47:47.480><c> highly</c>

00:47:48.119 --> 00:47:50.420
than<00:47:48.260><c> they</c><00:47:48.719><c> ought</c><00:47:49.099><c> to</c><00:47:49.360><c> think.</c>

00:47:51.920 --> 00:47:52.780
There's<00:47:52.079><c> lots</c><00:47:52.320><c> of</c><00:47:52.539><c> people</c>

00:47:52.780 --> 00:47:54.280
ecclesially<00:47:53.199><c> like</c><00:47:53.460><c> that.</c>

00:47:54.679 --> 00:47:57.179
You<00:47:54.719><c> know</c><00:47:55.079><c> a</c><00:47:55.260><c> man</c><00:47:55.539><c> who</c><00:47:55.719><c> in</c><00:47:55.840><c> his</c><00:47:56.119><c> job</c>

00:47:57.380 --> 00:47:59.719
is<00:47:57.900><c> a</c><00:47:58.239><c> first</c><00:47:58.500><c> secretary</c><00:47:59.000><c> of</c><00:47:59.179><c> the</c><00:47:59.360><c> company</c>

00:47:59.719 --> 00:48:01.860
or<00:48:00.039><c> general</c><00:48:00.380><c> manager</c><00:48:00.800><c> or</c><00:48:00.940><c> whatever</c><00:48:01.059><c> it</c><00:48:01.340><c> might</c><00:48:01.480><c> be.</c>

00:48:02.079 --> 00:48:03.119
He<00:48:02.199><c> comes</c><00:48:02.460><c> on</c><00:48:02.739><c> Sunday,</c>

00:48:03.539 --> 00:48:05.559
what<00:48:03.900><c> role</c><00:48:04.219><c> is</c><00:48:04.400><c> he</c><00:48:04.519><c> going</c><00:48:04.699><c> to</c><00:48:04.840><c> have</c><00:48:05.019><c> ecclesially?</c>

00:48:05.739 --> 00:48:07.739
Well<00:48:06.000><c> he</c><00:48:06.079><c> could</c><00:48:06.260><c> be</c><00:48:06.400><c> very</c><00:48:06.659><c> disappointed.</c>

00:48:08.559 --> 00:48:09.980
He<00:48:08.800><c> may</c><00:48:09.019><c> not</c><00:48:09.219><c> give</c><00:48:09.440><c> the</c><00:48:09.679><c> things</c>

00:48:09.980 --> 00:48:12.420
to<00:48:10.519><c> the</c><00:48:11.420><c> ecclesial</c><00:48:12.059><c> life</c>

00:48:12.420 --> 00:48:13.360
and<00:48:12.579><c> the</c><00:48:12.739><c> word</c><00:48:12.900><c> of</c><00:48:13.059><c> God</c>

00:48:13.360 --> 00:48:14.760
that<00:48:13.599><c> he</c><00:48:13.699><c> gives</c><00:48:13.900><c> to</c><00:48:14.099><c> the</c><00:48:14.219><c> business</c><00:48:14.519><c> world.</c>

00:48:14.800 --> 00:48:15.659
So<00:48:14.980><c> when</c><00:48:15.119><c> he</c><00:48:15.219><c> comes</c><00:48:15.500><c> in</c>

00:48:15.659 --> 00:48:16.960
he's<00:48:15.800><c> not</c><00:48:16.059><c> an</c><00:48:16.280><c> arranging</c><00:48:16.739><c> brother.</c>

00:48:17.019 --> 00:48:17.840
He<00:48:17.019><c> doesn't</c><00:48:17.219><c> like</c><00:48:17.519><c> that.</c>

00:48:17.940 --> 00:48:18.820
He's<00:48:18.079><c> used</c><00:48:18.219><c> to</c><00:48:18.320><c> pushing</c><00:48:18.519><c> people</c>

00:48:18.820 --> 00:48:20.360
all<00:48:19.059><c> around</c><00:48:19.280><c> all</c><00:48:19.500><c> day</c><00:48:19.699><c> long.</c>

00:48:20.659 --> 00:48:22.059
Telling<00:48:21.019><c> others</c><00:48:21.179><c> what</c><00:48:21.460><c> to</c><00:48:21.639><c> do.</c>

00:48:22.539 --> 00:48:23.820
Now<00:48:22.719><c> he</c><00:48:22.840><c> comes</c><00:48:23.099><c> into</c><00:48:23.219><c> the</c><00:48:23.420><c> ecclesia</c>

00:48:23.820 --> 00:48:25.780
and<00:48:24.099><c> well</c><00:48:24.360><c> he's</c><00:48:24.739><c> just</c>

00:48:25.880 --> 00:48:27.980
he's<00:48:26.360><c> not</c><00:48:26.539><c> voted</c><00:48:26.840><c> on</c><00:48:27.039><c> the</c><00:48:27.219><c> ballot.</c>

00:48:28.440 --> 00:48:30.880
He<00:48:28.639><c> gets</c><00:48:28.900><c> upset,</c><00:48:29.480><c> he</c><00:48:29.519><c> falls</c><00:48:30.019><c> out.</c>

00:48:31.840 --> 00:48:33.280
He's<00:48:32.320><c> thinking</c><00:48:32.639><c> more</c><00:48:33.019><c> highly</c>

00:48:33.280 --> 00:48:34.920
than<00:48:33.460><c> he</c><00:48:33.619><c> ought</c><00:48:33.800><c> to</c><00:48:34.000><c> think.</c>

00:48:35.780 --> 00:48:38.039
We've<00:48:36.119><c> all</c><00:48:36.199><c> got</c><00:48:36.300><c> to</c><00:48:36.420><c> be</c><00:48:36.519><c> very</c><00:48:36.920><c> cautious</c><00:48:37.280><c> about</c><00:48:37.599><c> that.</c>

00:48:38.039 --> 00:48:42.440
Not<00:48:38.559><c> so</c><00:48:38.840><c> difficult</c><00:48:39.500><c> when</c><00:48:40.199><c> somebody</c><00:48:40.559><c> is</c>

00:48:42.440 --> 00:48:44.679
either<00:48:43.079><c> a</c><00:48:43.760><c> long</c><00:48:43.940><c> way</c><00:48:44.139><c> less</c>

00:48:44.679 --> 00:48:47.059
and<00:48:44.960><c> his</c><00:48:45.079><c> abilities</c><00:48:45.480><c> are</c><00:48:45.659><c> a</c><00:48:45.659><c> long</c><00:48:45.820><c> way</c><00:48:46.019><c> higher.</c>

00:48:47.300 --> 00:48:48.840
But<00:48:47.420><c> there's</c><00:48:47.579><c> a</c><00:48:47.679><c> lot</c><00:48:47.860><c> of</c><00:48:48.260><c> competitiveness</c>

00:48:48.840 --> 00:48:49.980
that<00:48:49.119><c> goes</c><00:48:49.340><c> on</c><00:48:49.500><c> when</c><00:48:49.699><c> somebody</c>

00:48:49.980 --> 00:48:51.719
is<00:48:50.139><c> on</c><00:48:50.219><c> the</c><00:48:50.340><c> same</c><00:48:50.659><c> level.</c>

00:48:51.900 --> 00:48:53.119
Is<00:48:51.960><c> it</c><00:48:52.039><c> going</c><00:48:52.119><c> to</c><00:48:52.219><c> be</c><00:48:52.340><c> he</c><00:48:52.599><c> that</c><00:48:52.860><c> does</c><00:48:52.940><c> it</c>

00:48:53.119 --> 00:48:54.659
or<00:48:53.340><c> he</c><00:48:53.659><c> that</c><00:48:53.860><c> does</c><00:48:54.000><c> it?</c>

00:48:54.940 --> 00:48:55.619
And<00:48:55.099><c> more</c><00:48:55.219><c> particularly</c>

00:48:55.619 --> 00:48:58.480
is<00:48:55.800><c> it</c><00:48:55.880><c> going</c><00:48:55.960><c> to</c><00:48:56.059><c> be</c><00:48:56.199><c> him</c><00:48:56.840><c> or</c><00:48:57.340><c> me?</c>

00:48:59.519 --> 00:49:00.840
The<00:48:59.820><c> apostle</c><00:49:00.099><c> doesn't</c><00:49:00.380><c> want</c><00:49:00.619><c> us</c>

00:49:00.840 --> 00:49:02.420
to<00:49:01.000><c> think</c><00:49:01.119><c> that</c><00:49:01.400><c> way.</c>

00:49:03.119 --> 00:49:06.559
He<00:49:03.360><c> wants</c><00:49:03.639><c> us</c><00:49:04.199><c> to</c><00:49:04.420><c> think</c><00:49:04.760><c> soberly.</c>

00:49:06.860 --> 00:49:09.739
According<00:49:07.340><c> as</c><00:49:07.579><c> God</c><00:49:07.880><c> hath</c><00:49:08.139><c> dealt</c><00:49:08.420><c> to</c><00:49:08.820><c> every</c><00:49:09.280><c> man</c>

00:49:09.739 --> 00:49:10.659
the<00:49:10.119><c> measure</c><00:49:10.380><c> of</c><00:49:10.539><c> faith.</c>

00:49:10.739 --> 00:49:13.139
Did<00:49:10.800><c> you</c><00:49:10.940><c> notice</c><00:49:11.199><c> that</c><00:49:11.539><c> every</c><00:49:11.880><c> man</c><00:49:12.179><c> repeated?</c>

00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:14.960
A<00:49:13.420><c> very</c><00:49:13.659><c> good</c><00:49:13.840><c> thing</c><00:49:14.039><c> to</c><00:49:14.239><c> do</c><00:49:14.340><c> when</c><00:49:14.480><c> you</c><00:49:14.599><c> get</c><00:49:14.760><c> that</c>

00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:16.500
is<00:49:15.119><c> to</c><00:49:15.420><c> ring</c><00:49:15.619><c> both</c><00:49:15.940><c> of</c><00:49:16.119><c> them</c>

00:49:16.500 --> 00:49:18.000
and<00:49:17.239><c> join</c><00:49:17.460><c> them</c><00:49:17.659><c> together</c>

00:49:18.000 --> 00:49:20.500
because<00:49:18.340><c> it</c><00:49:18.579><c> helps</c><00:49:18.699><c> you</c><00:49:18.900><c> to</c><00:49:19.199><c> see</c><00:49:19.340><c> the</c><00:49:19.639><c> sense.</c>

00:49:20.619 --> 00:49:21.579
But<00:49:20.760><c> reading</c><00:49:21.039><c> the</c><00:49:21.300><c> Bible</c>

00:49:21.579 --> 00:49:23.599
we<00:49:21.719><c> really</c><00:49:21.940><c> want</c><00:49:22.079><c> to</c><00:49:22.340><c> see</c><00:49:22.460><c> the</c><00:49:22.699><c> sense</c><00:49:22.920><c> of</c><00:49:23.059><c> it,</c><00:49:23.179><c> don't</c><00:49:23.360><c> we?</c>

00:49:23.920 --> 00:49:25.039
So<00:49:24.119><c> ring</c><00:49:24.340><c> those</c><00:49:24.579><c> two</c><00:49:24.739><c> together</c>

00:49:25.039 --> 00:49:26.440
and<00:49:25.300><c> it</c><00:49:25.500><c> draws</c><00:49:25.800><c> out</c><00:49:26.079><c> the</c><00:49:26.300><c> point.</c>

00:49:26.519 --> 00:49:28.300
You<00:49:26.659><c> see</c><00:49:26.920><c> what</c><00:49:27.239><c> it's</c><00:49:27.559><c> saying</c><00:49:27.739><c> is</c><00:49:27.920><c> that</c>

00:49:28.300 --> 00:49:29.840
there's<00:49:28.800><c> another</c><00:49:29.139><c> way</c><00:49:29.400><c> of</c><00:49:29.639><c> thinking</c>

00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:31.420
that<00:49:30.119><c> says</c><00:49:30.239><c> I</c><00:49:30.519><c> can't</c><00:49:30.840><c> do</c><00:49:31.099><c> anything</c>

00:49:31.420 --> 00:49:32.880
and<00:49:31.559><c> that's</c><00:49:31.980><c> wrong</c><00:49:32.199><c> too.</c>

00:49:32.880 --> 00:49:36.420
Because<00:49:34.179><c> God</c><00:49:34.500><c> hath</c><00:49:34.800><c> dealt</c><00:49:35.059><c> to</c><00:49:35.480><c> every</c><00:49:35.940><c> man</c>

00:49:36.420 --> 00:49:38.400
the<00:49:36.880><c> measure</c><00:49:37.179><c> of</c><00:49:37.480><c> faith.</c>

00:49:39.340 --> 00:49:42.000
Now<00:49:39.480><c> there's</c><00:49:39.739><c> a</c><00:49:39.960><c> very,</c><00:49:40.340><c> very</c><00:49:41.039><c> wonderful</c><00:49:41.539><c> parallel</c>

00:49:42.000 --> 00:49:46.079
with<00:49:42.219><c> this</c><00:49:42.880><c> in</c><00:49:43.579><c> the</c><00:49:44.179><c> parable</c><00:49:44.659><c> in</c><00:49:44.900><c> Matthew</c><00:49:45.099><c> 25.</c>

00:49:46.480 --> 00:49:48.739

It<00:51:12.000><c> isn't</c><00:51:12.139><c> that</c><00:51:12.280><c> a</c><00:51:12.420><c> powerful</c><00:51:12.840><c> verse.</c>

00:51:14.739 --> 00:51:16.340
Could<00:51:14.880><c> you</c><00:51:15.039><c> do</c><00:51:15.179><c> something</c><00:51:15.519><c> well</c><00:51:15.860><c> ecclesially?</c>

00:51:16.519 --> 00:51:17.639

00:51:17.639 --> 00:51:19.059
as<00:51:17.760><c> though</c><00:51:17.880><c> it</c><00:51:17.880><c> wasn't</c><00:51:18.199><c> given</c><00:51:18.400><c> to</c><00:51:18.599><c> you</c>

00:51:19.059 --> 00:51:21.960
or<00:51:19.599><c> think</c><00:51:19.940><c> by</c><00:51:20.360><c> it</c><00:51:20.800><c> that</c><00:51:20.980><c> you're</c><00:51:21.139><c> more</c><00:51:21.400><c> than</c><00:51:21.579><c> somebody</c>

00:51:21.960 --> 00:51:23.019
who<00:51:22.219><c> can't</c><00:51:22.579><c> do</c><00:51:22.820><c> that</c>

00:51:23.019 --> 00:51:25.139
because<00:51:24.000><c> you're</c><00:51:24.400><c> missing</c><00:51:24.659><c> the</c><00:51:24.960><c> point.</c>

00:51:25.260 --> 00:51:27.340
God<00:51:25.559><c> gave</c><00:51:25.940><c> you</c><00:51:26.159><c> that</c><00:51:26.360><c> ability.</c>

00:51:29.139 --> 00:51:31.440
So<00:51:29.659><c> it</c><00:51:30.179><c> puts</c><00:51:30.380><c> us</c><00:51:30.599><c> all</c><00:51:30.760><c> in</c><00:51:30.860><c> right</c><00:51:31.000><c> perspective.</c>

00:51:31.579 --> 00:51:33.300
The<00:51:31.679><c> other</c><00:51:31.840><c> thing</c><00:51:32.000><c> it</c><00:51:32.119><c> does</c><00:51:32.340><c> is</c><00:51:32.539><c> this.</c>

00:51:33.679 --> 00:51:35.739
It<00:51:33.880><c> helps</c><00:51:34.139><c> us</c><00:51:34.360><c> to</c><00:51:34.639><c> appreciate</c><00:51:35.099><c> our</c><00:51:35.420><c> brother</c>

or<00:51:36.260><c> our</c><00:51:36.519><c> sister.</c>

00:51:39.019 --> 00:51:40.300
And<00:51:39.179><c> that</c><00:51:39.280><c> we</c><00:51:39.360><c> don't</c><00:51:39.579><c> become</c><00:51:39.920><c> envious</c>

00:51:40.300 --> 00:51:41.599
because<00:51:40.579><c> they</c><00:51:40.780><c> can</c><00:51:41.019><c> do</c><00:51:41.239><c> something</c>

00:51:41.599 --> 00:51:43.519
but<00:51:41.880><c> we</c><00:51:42.159><c> thank</c><00:51:42.400><c> God</c><00:51:42.739><c> that</c><00:51:42.980><c> they're</c><00:51:43.260><c> there.</c>

that<00:51:46.820><c> ability.</c>

00:51:48.360 --> 00:51:50.880
Because<00:51:48.880><c> it's</c><00:51:49.239><c> there</c><00:51:49.460><c> for</c><00:51:49.679><c> the</c><00:51:49.920><c> ecclesial</c><00:51:50.460><c> good.</c>

00:51:51.159 --> 00:51:52.380
We're<00:51:51.360><c> a</c><00:51:51.639><c> better</c><00:51:51.900><c> meeting.</c>

00:51:52.519 --> 00:51:54.400
We're<00:51:52.760><c> more</c><00:51:53.019><c> provided</c><00:51:53.760><c> for</c><00:51:54.019><c> people</c>

00:51:54.400 --> 00:51:56.900
because<00:51:54.980><c> He</c><00:51:55.199><c> has</c><00:51:55.440><c> provided</c><00:51:55.960><c> those</c><00:51:56.340><c> things</c><00:51:56.539><c> there.</c>

00:51:57.320 --> 00:51:59.219
And<00:51:57.460><c> so</c><00:51:57.579><c> it</c><00:51:57.739><c> helps</c><00:51:57.960><c> us</c><00:51:58.179><c> to</c><00:51:58.300><c> get</c><00:51:58.440><c> over</c><00:51:58.679><c> that</c>

00:52:00.760 --> 00:52:03.239
that<00:52:01.380><c> is</c><00:52:01.619><c> so</c><00:52:01.880><c> destructive</c><00:52:02.420><c> in</c><00:52:02.639><c> ecclesial</c><00:52:03.039><c> life</c>

00:52:03.239 --> 00:52:05.320

00:52:05.880 --> 00:52:07.300
And<00:52:05.980><c> that</c><00:52:06.039><c> we</c><00:52:06.179><c> can</c><00:52:06.400><c> appreciate</c><00:52:07.000><c> that</c>

00:52:09.679 --> 00:52:11.860
because<00:52:10.320><c> God's</c><00:52:10.860><c> given</c><00:52:11.099><c> them</c><00:52:11.300><c> that</c><00:52:11.519><c> ability.</c>

Therefore<00:52:12.239><c> be</c><00:52:12.500><c> happy</c><00:52:12.800><c> with</c><00:52:13.039><c> it.</c>

00:52:15.579 --> 00:52:16.960
Don't<00:52:16.019><c> resent.</c>

00:52:18.920 --> 00:52:20.300
Now<00:52:18.980><c> coming</c><00:52:19.159><c> back</c><00:52:19.420><c> to</c><00:52:19.539><c> Matthew</c><00:52:19.739><c> 25</c>

00:52:20.300 --> 00:52:21.539
there's<00:52:20.500><c> a</c><00:52:20.619><c> very</c><00:52:20.900><c> powerful</c><00:52:21.300><c> thing</c>

00:52:21.539 --> 00:52:23.139

00:52:26.500 --> 00:52:28.340
You<00:52:26.559><c> might</c><00:52:26.760><c> say,</c><00:52:27.440><c> well,</c>

00:52:28.519 --> 00:52:29.960
might<00:52:28.639><c> have</c><00:52:28.780><c> thought</c><00:52:28.900><c> it</c><00:52:29.059><c> would</c><00:52:29.099><c> be</c><00:52:29.179><c> the</c><00:52:29.260><c> one</c><00:52:29.360><c> with</c><00:52:29.579><c> five</c>

he'd<00:52:31.719><c> run</c><00:52:31.860><c> away</c><00:52:32.099><c> with</c><00:52:32.280><c> himself.</c>

00:52:33.880 --> 00:52:36.719
But<00:52:34.179><c> it</c><00:52:34.440><c> wasn't,</c><00:52:35.880><c> in</c><00:52:36.079><c> fact,</c><00:52:36.460><c> that</c><00:52:36.619><c> one.</c>

00:52:36.780 --> 00:52:39.019
It<00:52:36.780><c> doesn't</c><00:52:36.980><c> mean</c><00:52:37.119><c> to</c><00:52:37.260><c> say</c><00:52:37.400><c> that</c><00:52:37.599><c> that</c><00:52:37.800><c> can't</c><00:52:38.159><c> happen.</c>

00:52:39.559 --> 00:52:42.559

00:52:43.420 --> 00:52:46.219
that<00:52:43.860><c> the</c><00:52:44.099><c> one</c><00:52:44.300><c> who</c><00:52:44.519><c> had</c><00:52:44.840><c> won</c><00:52:45.219><c> deprecated</c>

00:52:46.219 --> 00:52:48.559
what<00:52:46.599><c> God</c><00:52:46.800><c> had</c><00:52:47.000><c> given</c><00:52:47.199><c> him.</c>

00:52:48.659 --> 00:52:50.800
He<00:52:48.699><c> said,</c><00:52:48.920><c> I</c><00:52:48.980><c> haven't</c><00:52:49.340><c> got</c><00:52:49.659><c> an</c><00:52:49.860><c> ability.</c>

00:52:51.760 --> 00:52:54.780
I<00:52:52.079><c> can't</c><00:52:52.420><c> get</c><00:52:52.559><c> up</c><00:52:52.820><c> and</c><00:52:53.659><c> lead</c><00:52:53.840><c> the</c><00:52:54.139><c> Bible</c><00:52:54.400><c> class</c>

or<00:52:54.980><c> whatever</c><00:52:55.159><c> it</c><00:52:55.380><c> might</c><00:52:55.619><c> be.</c>

00:52:56.420 --> 00:52:59.500
Or<00:52:56.739><c> I</c><00:52:57.000><c> can't</c><00:52:58.019><c> arrange</c><00:52:58.480><c> this</c><00:52:58.820><c> fraternal</c>

00:53:03.420 --> 00:53:05.179
Or<00:53:03.599><c> the</c><00:53:03.780><c> sister</c><00:53:04.079><c> said,</c><00:53:04.539><c> well,</c><00:53:04.880><c> it's</c><00:53:04.980><c> all</c><00:53:05.059><c> right</c>

00:53:05.179 --> 00:53:07.000
if<00:53:05.280><c> the</c><00:53:05.360><c> sister</c><00:53:05.559><c> signs</c><00:53:05.840><c> over</c><00:53:06.039><c> to</c><00:53:06.179><c> I</c><00:53:06.380><c> can't</c><00:53:06.679><c> do</c><00:53:06.760><c> that.</c>

00:53:07.460 --> 00:53:09.539
The<00:53:07.500><c> sister</c><00:53:07.599><c> said,</c><00:53:07.800><c> I'm</c><00:53:07.940><c> not</c><00:53:08.059><c> going</c><00:53:08.159><c> to</c><00:53:08.260><c> do</c><00:53:08.320><c> much</c><00:53:08.559><c> at</c><00:53:08.780><c> all.</c>

00:53:09.539 --> 00:53:12.519
She<00:53:09.980><c> turned</c><00:53:10.840><c> on</c><00:53:11.019><c> the</c><00:53:11.159><c> television</c><00:53:11.519><c> and</c><00:53:11.780><c> spoke.</c>

00:53:14.199 --> 00:53:16.260
And<00:53:14.360><c> wasted</c><00:53:14.719><c> her</c><00:53:15.059><c> time.</c>

00:53:16.420 --> 00:53:18.139
And<00:53:16.519><c> eventually</c><00:53:16.780><c> the</c><00:53:16.960><c> Lord</c><00:53:17.139><c> came.</c>

00:53:19.019 --> 00:53:20.159
And<00:53:19.099><c> then</c><00:53:19.199><c> the</c><00:53:19.300><c> one</c><00:53:19.380><c> with</c><00:53:19.559><c> one</c><00:53:19.760><c> talent</c><00:53:19.980><c> said,</c>

00:53:20.579 --> 00:53:21.400
look,<00:53:20.639><c> I</c><00:53:20.940><c> feared</c><00:53:21.219><c> that,</c>

00:53:21.440 --> 00:53:22.440
which<00:53:21.599><c> was</c><00:53:21.800><c> a</c><00:53:21.940><c> wrong</c><00:53:22.139><c> attitude.</c>

00:53:22.519 --> 00:53:25.179
We<00:53:22.619><c> don't</c><00:53:22.980><c> fear</c><00:53:23.480><c> God</c><00:53:23.739><c> in</c><00:53:23.920><c> that</c><00:53:24.139><c> sense.</c>

00:53:25.460 --> 00:53:27.719
He<00:53:25.579><c> that</c><00:53:25.760><c> cometh</c><00:53:25.980><c> to</c><00:53:26.119><c> God</c><00:53:26.280><c> must</c><00:53:26.519><c> believe</c><00:53:26.880><c> that</c><00:53:27.039><c> he</c><00:53:27.280><c> is</c>

00:53:27.719 --> 00:53:29.119
and<00:53:28.219><c> that</c><00:53:28.420><c> he's</c><00:53:28.619><c> a</c><00:53:28.739><c> rewarder.</c>

00:53:29.179 --> 00:53:30.699
He<00:53:29.239><c> wants</c><00:53:29.719><c> to</c><00:53:29.940><c> help.</c>

00:53:30.960 --> 00:53:33.119
So<00:53:31.300><c> whatever</c><00:53:31.599><c> talent</c><00:53:31.940><c> we've</c><00:53:32.280><c> got,</c><00:53:32.559><c> brother</c><00:53:32.699><c> and</c><00:53:32.940><c> sister,</c>

00:53:33.139 --> 00:53:34.420
that<00:53:33.300><c> might</c><00:53:33.579><c> feel</c><00:53:33.780><c> that</c><00:53:33.860><c> they're</c><00:53:34.019><c> sometimes</c>

00:53:34.420 --> 00:53:35.739
on<00:53:34.659><c> the</c><00:53:34.840><c> fringe</c><00:53:35.019><c> of</c><00:53:35.219><c> ecclesial</c><00:53:35.539><c> life,</c>

00:53:35.880 --> 00:53:37.719
you've<00:53:36.219><c> got</c><00:53:36.300><c> to</c><00:53:36.500><c> use</c><00:53:36.719><c> that.</c>

00:53:38.139 --> 00:53:40.639
He<00:53:38.699><c> has</c><00:53:38.960><c> dealt</c><00:53:39.139><c> to</c><00:53:39.380><c> every</c><00:53:39.820><c> man</c><00:53:40.119><c> that</c><00:53:40.320><c> ability.</c>

00:53:40.880 --> 00:53:43.260
It's<00:53:41.019><c> got</c><00:53:41.280><c> to</c><00:53:41.480><c> be</c><00:53:41.699><c> put</c><00:53:41.880><c> into</c><00:53:42.179><c> the</c><00:53:42.460><c> compound</c>

00:53:43.260 --> 00:53:45.860
of<00:53:44.340><c> ecclesial</c><00:53:44.760><c> use.</c>

00:53:46.639 --> 00:53:48.059
Because<00:53:46.820><c> God</c><00:53:46.980><c> has</c><00:53:47.260><c> given</c><00:53:47.460><c> that</c>

00:53:48.059 --> 00:53:50.679
for<00:53:48.460><c> the</c><00:53:48.659><c> benefit</c><00:53:48.960><c> not</c><00:53:49.219><c> only</c><00:53:49.460><c> of</c><00:53:49.639><c> yourself,</c>

00:53:51.059 --> 00:53:54.139
but<00:53:51.199><c> of</c><00:53:51.340><c> the</c><00:53:51.519><c> benefit</c><00:53:52.000><c> of</c><00:53:52.699><c> all</c><00:53:52.980><c> the</c><00:53:53.199><c> ecclesia.</c>

00:53:54.579 --> 00:53:56.840
So<00:53:55.139><c> those</c><00:53:55.699><c> two</c><00:53:56.000><c> ways</c><00:53:56.300><c> of</c><00:53:56.559><c> thinking</c>

00:53:56.840 --> 00:53:57.840
have<00:53:57.079><c> got</c><00:53:57.159><c> to</c><00:53:57.280><c> be</c><00:53:57.519><c> corrected.</c>

00:53:58.119 --> 00:54:00.920
Not<00:53:58.320><c> to</c><00:53:58.539><c> think</c><00:53:58.719><c> more</c><00:53:59.119><c> highly</c><00:53:59.659><c> than</c><00:54:00.059><c> he</c><00:54:00.340><c> ought</c><00:54:00.539><c> to</c><00:54:00.760><c> think.</c>

00:54:01.019 --> 00:54:03.460
But<00:54:01.320><c> nevertheless</c><00:54:01.679><c> not</c><00:54:02.079><c> to</c><00:54:02.300><c> deprecate</c>

00:54:03.460 --> 00:54:05.699
the<00:54:03.719><c> gift</c><00:54:03.920><c> that</c><00:54:04.119><c> God</c><00:54:04.380><c> has</c><00:54:04.659><c> given</c><00:54:04.900><c> him.</c>

00:54:07.380 --> 00:54:12.179
So<00:54:08.059><c> we</c><00:54:08.739><c> have</c><00:54:09.139><c> a</c><00:54:09.760><c> unity</c><00:54:10.159><c> in</c><00:54:10.699><c> our</c><00:54:10.960><c> diversity.</c>

00:54:12.800 --> 00:54:15.639
Verses<00:54:12.980><c> four</c><00:54:13.280><c> and</c><00:54:13.420><c> five,</c><00:54:13.880><c> as</c><00:54:14.099><c> we</c><00:54:14.260><c> have</c><00:54:14.460><c> read</c><00:54:14.579><c> already,</c>

00:54:15.900 --> 00:54:18.340
impress<00:54:16.159><c> that</c><00:54:16.840><c> truth</c><00:54:17.079><c> upon</c><00:54:17.380><c> us.</c>

00:54:20.539 --> 00:54:22.559
God<00:54:20.820><c> has</c><00:54:21.139><c> given</c><00:54:21.340><c> these</c><00:54:21.599><c> abilities.</c>

00:54:22.699 --> 00:54:25.340
Let<00:54:22.860><c> us</c><00:54:23.239><c> therefore</c><00:54:23.760><c> use</c><00:54:24.219><c> them.</c>

00:54:25.760 --> 00:54:27.559
Having<00:54:26.039><c> then</c><00:54:26.360><c> gifts,</c><00:54:26.920><c> verse</c><00:54:27.199><c> six,</c>

00:54:27.699 --> 00:54:29.539
differing<00:54:28.079><c> according</c><00:54:28.500><c> to</c><00:54:28.679><c> the</c><00:54:29.000><c> grace</c>

00:54:29.539 --> 00:54:31.159
that<00:54:30.139><c> is</c><00:54:30.400><c> given</c><00:54:30.619><c> to</c><00:54:30.920><c> us,</c>

00:54:31.420 --> 00:54:33.420
whether<00:54:31.460><c> prophecy,</c><00:54:32.380><c> let</c><00:54:32.539><c> us</c><00:54:32.880><c> prophesy</c>

00:54:33.420 --> 00:54:36.420
according<00:54:34.000><c> to</c><00:54:34.239><c> the</c><00:54:34.400><c> proportion</c><00:54:34.920><c> of</c><00:54:35.239><c> faith.</c>

00:54:36.920 --> 00:54:40.280
Now<00:54:36.920><c> I</c><00:54:37.539><c> believe</c><00:54:37.880><c> that</c><00:54:38.059><c> that's</c><00:54:38.380><c> a</c><00:54:38.579><c> balancing</c><00:54:39.519><c> statement</c>

00:54:40.280 --> 00:54:42.800
to<00:54:40.539><c> the</c><00:54:40.800><c> statement</c><00:54:41.119><c> that</c><00:54:41.300><c> we</c><00:54:41.460><c> have</c><00:54:41.639><c> in</c><00:54:41.840><c> verse</c><00:54:42.099><c> three.</c>

00:54:43.019 --> 00:54:43.960
In<00:54:43.179><c> verse</c><00:54:43.420><c> three</c><00:54:43.679><c> it</c><00:54:43.780><c> says,</c>

00:54:44.420 --> 00:54:47.320
according<00:54:44.420><c> as</c><00:54:44.760><c> God</c><00:54:45.159><c> hath</c><00:54:45.539><c> dealt</c>

00:54:50.820 --> 00:54:52.679
the<00:54:51.039><c> word</c><00:54:51.219><c> is</c><00:54:51.500><c> a</c><00:54:51.679><c> measuring</c><00:54:51.940><c> instrument,</c>

00:54:53.039 --> 00:54:54.239
of<00:54:53.320><c> faith.</c>

00:54:55.179 --> 00:54:56.179
That<00:54:55.280><c> is,</c><00:54:55.579><c> God</c><00:54:55.760><c> has,</c>

00:54:56.639 --> 00:54:58.300
the<00:54:56.860><c> word</c><00:54:57.119><c> faith</c><00:54:57.400><c> has</c><00:54:57.579><c> been</c><00:54:57.820><c> used</c><00:54:58.099><c> there</c>

00:54:58.300 --> 00:54:59.739
in<00:54:58.460><c> the</c><00:54:58.619><c> sense</c><00:54:58.800><c> of</c><00:54:58.980><c> the</c><00:54:59.159><c> gift</c><00:54:59.320><c> itself,</c>

00:55:01.019 --> 00:55:05.139
So<00:55:02.019><c> God</c><00:55:02.340><c> has</c><00:55:02.719><c> measured</c><00:55:03.019><c> off</c><00:55:03.340><c> a</c><00:55:03.539><c> certain</c><00:55:03.960><c> gift</c>

00:55:13.239 --> 00:55:16.059
That's<00:55:13.639><c> God's</c><00:55:14.139><c> dealing</c><00:55:14.380><c> out</c><00:55:14.659><c> of</c><00:55:14.900><c> these</c>

00:55:19.099 --> 00:55:20.360
But<00:55:19.260><c> then</c><00:55:19.500><c> in</c><00:55:19.659><c> verse</c><00:55:19.820><c> six</c><00:55:20.079><c> he</c><00:55:20.179><c> says,</c>

00:55:31.460 --> 00:55:33.440
That's<00:55:31.820><c> our</c><00:55:32.179><c> response.</c>

00:55:34.579 --> 00:55:36.960
It's<00:55:34.840><c> faith</c><00:55:35.239><c> that</c><00:55:35.719><c> sees</c><00:55:35.960><c> that</c><00:55:36.099><c> we</c><00:55:36.280><c> can</c><00:55:36.579><c> do</c>

00:55:42.800 --> 00:55:44.219
And<00:55:42.920><c> therefore</c><00:55:43.179><c> we</c><00:55:43.380><c> will</c><00:55:43.539><c> use</c><00:55:43.699><c> it</c><00:55:43.900><c> according</c>

00:55:46.099 --> 00:55:48.840
God<00:55:46.380><c> has</c><00:55:47.079><c> issued</c><00:55:47.340><c> out</c><00:55:47.900><c> gifts.</c>

00:55:49.179 --> 00:55:50.579
He<00:55:49.360><c> has</c><00:55:49.360><c> proportioned</c><00:55:49.860><c> them</c><00:55:49.960><c> as</c><00:55:50.119><c> He</c><00:55:50.360><c> sees.</c>

00:55:50.699 --> 00:55:53.119
Now<00:55:51.019><c> our</c><00:55:51.199><c> response</c><00:55:51.719><c> to</c><00:55:51.940><c> that</c><00:55:52.320><c> is</c><00:55:52.800><c> according</c>

00:55:56.059 --> 00:55:58.219
If<00:55:56.239><c> it's</c><00:55:56.480><c> ministry,</c><00:55:57.539><c> verse</c><00:55:57.780><c> seven,</c>

00:56:04.019 --> 00:56:07.480
That's<00:56:04.300><c> why</c><00:56:04.460><c> I</c><00:56:04.579><c> say</c><00:56:04.840><c> that</c><00:56:06.380><c> the</c><00:56:06.679><c> section</c><00:56:06.980><c> is</c><00:56:07.260><c> dealing</c>

00:56:09.340 --> 00:56:10.960
which<00:56:09.480><c> were</c><00:56:09.739><c> relevant</c><00:56:10.000><c> to</c><00:56:10.219><c> the</c><00:56:10.360><c> first</c><00:56:10.559><c> century</c>

00:56:20.860 --> 00:56:23.159

00:56:51.860 --> 00:56:53.320
Sometimes<00:56:52.300><c> we're</c><00:56:52.559><c> always</c><00:56:52.800><c> looking</c><00:56:53.079><c> over</c>

00:56:55.199 --> 00:56:57.179
We<00:56:55.380><c> would</c><00:56:55.599><c> do</c><00:56:55.760><c> this</c><00:56:56.119><c> child</c><00:56:56.260><c> prayer</c><00:56:56.559><c> well</c>

00:57:00.780 --> 00:57:02.840
It's<00:57:01.139><c> a</c><00:57:01.280><c> very</c><00:57:01.739><c> childish</c><00:57:02.039><c> sort</c><00:57:02.340><c> of</c><00:57:02.400><c> thing</c><00:57:02.500><c> to</c><00:57:02.699><c> do,</c>

00:57:03.179 --> 00:57:05.159
so<00:57:03.179><c> we</c><00:57:03.500><c> put</c><00:57:03.780><c> a</c><00:57:04.000><c> small</c><00:57:04.300><c> amount</c><00:57:04.519><c> of</c><00:57:04.719><c> time</c><00:57:05.019><c> into</c><00:57:05.119><c> it.</c>

00:57:05.159 --> 00:57:07.320
That's<00:57:05.340><c> not</c><00:57:05.559><c> the</c><00:57:05.699><c> spirit</c><00:57:06.219><c> of</c><00:57:06.420><c> the</c><00:57:06.559><c> thing.</c>

00:57:15.860 --> 00:57:18.699
Let's<00:57:16.139><c> therefore</c><00:57:16.380><c> put</c><00:57:16.599><c> our</c><00:57:16.800><c> heart</c><00:57:17.000><c> and</c><00:57:17.199><c> soul</c><00:57:17.360><c> behind</c><00:57:17.760><c> that</c>

Or<00:57:21.079><c> he</c><00:57:21.360><c> that</c><00:57:21.599><c> exhorteth</c><00:57:22.639><c> on</c><00:57:23.420><c> exhortation.</c>

00:57:25.019 --> 00:57:27.219
Let<00:57:25.039><c> him</c><00:57:25.260><c> think</c><00:57:25.599><c> about</c><00:57:25.920><c> that</c><00:57:26.219><c> exhortation.</c>

And<00:57:27.880><c> exhortation</c><00:57:28.360><c> should</c><00:57:28.599><c> be</c><00:57:28.940><c> exhortation.</c>

00:57:30.639 --> 00:57:33.139
It's<00:57:30.719><c> not</c><00:57:31.000><c> just</c><00:57:31.340><c> time</c><00:57:31.639><c> for</c><00:57:31.800><c> a</c><00:57:31.820><c> lot</c><00:57:32.000><c> of</c><00:57:32.260><c> facts.</c>

That's<00:57:33.840><c> not</c><00:57:33.980><c> what</c><00:57:34.139><c> the</c><00:57:34.239><c> word</c><00:57:34.460><c> exhortation</c><00:57:35.179><c> means.</c>

00:57:36.679 --> 00:57:38.679
Certainly<00:57:37.059><c> there</c><00:57:37.219><c> should</c><00:57:37.420><c> be</c><00:57:37.579><c> facts</c><00:57:37.880><c> and</c><00:57:38.119><c> information</c>

00:57:38.679 --> 00:57:41.440
and<00:57:39.480><c> substance</c><00:57:40.039><c> to</c><00:57:40.280><c> any</c><00:57:40.500><c> address.</c>

00:57:42.599 --> 00:57:45.579
But<00:57:42.820><c> exhortation</c><00:57:43.420><c> means</c><00:57:43.780><c> encouragement,</c><00:57:44.699><c> comfort.</c>

00:57:45.920 --> 00:57:47.599
The<00:57:46.099><c> brotherhood</c><00:57:46.460><c> needs</c><00:57:46.800><c> that</c><00:57:47.059><c> today.</c>

00:57:48.019 --> 00:57:49.519
So<00:57:48.260><c> what</c><00:57:48.460><c> we</c><00:57:48.820><c> say</c><00:57:49.019><c> is</c><00:57:49.179><c> not</c><00:57:49.340><c> only</c>

00:57:49.519 --> 00:57:51.019
we've<00:57:49.599><c> got</c><00:57:49.699><c> to</c><00:57:49.900><c> warn,</c><00:57:50.179><c> yes</c><00:57:50.400><c> it</c><00:57:50.440><c> has</c><00:57:50.699><c> to</c><00:57:50.860><c> warn,</c>

00:57:51.239 --> 00:57:53.679
but<00:57:51.380><c> it</c><00:57:51.440><c> must</c><00:57:51.699><c> be</c><00:57:52.019><c> encouraging</c><00:57:52.699><c> too</c>

00:57:53.679 --> 00:57:55.780
to<00:57:54.380><c> make</c><00:57:54.480><c> us</c><00:57:54.760><c> feel</c><00:57:55.039><c> the</c><00:57:55.340><c> virtues</c>

00:57:55.780 --> 00:57:57.420

00:57:57.599 --> 00:58:00.019
the<00:57:57.659><c> power</c><00:57:58.019><c> of</c><00:57:58.219><c> it,</c><00:57:58.980><c> the</c><00:57:59.119><c> nearness</c><00:57:59.400><c> of</c><00:57:59.559><c> the</c><00:57:59.760><c> kingdom.</c>

00:58:00.119 --> 00:58:03.480
That's<00:58:00.320><c> what</c><00:58:00.539><c> the</c><00:58:00.579><c> word</c><00:58:01.639><c> exhortation</c><00:58:02.619><c> means.</c>

00:58:04.280 --> 00:58:08.059
Paricalio,<00:58:05.000><c> related</c><00:58:05.360><c> to</c><00:58:05.559><c> the</c><00:58:05.679><c> word</c><00:58:05.820><c> the</c><00:58:06.199><c> comforter.</c>

00:58:08.079 --> 00:58:10.500
It<00:58:08.360><c> comforts</c><00:58:08.920><c> and</c><00:58:09.239><c> strengthens</c><00:58:09.719><c> and</c><00:58:09.940><c> evolves</c>

00:58:10.500 --> 00:58:13.760
our<00:58:10.980><c> brethren</c><00:58:11.239><c> and</c><00:58:11.460><c> sisters</c><00:58:11.860><c> in</c><00:58:12.579><c> their</c><00:58:12.780><c> faith.</c>

00:58:14.219 --> 00:58:18.019
Or<00:58:14.420><c> he</c><00:58:14.619><c> that</c><00:58:14.900><c> giveth,</c><00:58:16.440><c> let</c><00:58:16.539><c> him</c><00:58:16.719><c> do</c><00:58:16.880><c> it</c><00:58:17.159><c> with</c><00:58:17.480><c> simplicity,</c>

00:58:18.019 --> 00:58:19.940
with<00:58:18.420><c> singleness</c><00:58:18.780><c> of</c><00:58:19.159><c> mind.</c>

00:58:20.440 --> 00:58:22.000
And<00:58:20.559><c> that's</c><00:58:20.739><c> like</c><00:58:20.940><c> the</c><00:58:21.079><c> brother</c><00:58:21.239><c> who</c><00:58:21.440><c> comes</c><00:58:21.679><c> to</c><00:58:21.860><c> you</c>

00:58:22.000 --> 00:58:23.659
with<00:58:22.179><c> a</c><00:58:22.380><c> certain</c><00:58:22.500><c> cause.</c>

00:58:24.000 --> 00:58:25.179
He's<00:58:24.139><c> asking</c><00:58:24.340><c> you</c><00:58:24.519><c> to</c><00:58:24.599><c> help</c><00:58:24.800><c> with</c><00:58:25.019><c> something.</c>

00:58:25.199 --> 00:58:26.840
What's<00:58:25.480><c> your</c><00:58:25.599><c> natural</c><00:58:25.860><c> reaction?</c>

00:58:27.920 --> 00:58:30.480
I'm<00:58:28.059><c> going</c><00:58:28.139><c> to</c><00:58:28.300><c> ask</c><00:58:28.480><c> a</c><00:58:28.539><c> whole</c><00:58:28.739><c> lot</c><00:58:28.900><c> of</c><00:58:29.019><c> questions</c><00:58:29.480><c> about</c><00:58:29.820><c> it.</c>

00:58:30.940 --> 00:58:32.619
I<00:58:31.059><c> don't</c><00:58:31.239><c> think</c><00:58:31.360><c> all</c><00:58:31.539><c> those</c><00:58:31.780><c> questions</c><00:58:32.179><c> are</c><00:58:32.380><c> always</c>

00:58:32.619 --> 00:58:34.400
because<00:58:32.880><c> you're</c><00:58:33.139><c> unsure</c><00:58:33.880><c> as</c><00:58:34.139><c> to</c><00:58:34.320><c> whether</c>

00:58:34.400 --> 00:58:36.300
it<00:58:34.539><c> really</c><00:58:34.880><c> is</c><00:58:35.079><c> a</c><00:58:35.159><c> good</c><00:58:35.360><c> cause.</c>

00:58:36.900 --> 00:58:40.699
I<00:58:37.079><c> think</c><00:58:37.280><c> it's</c><00:58:38.619><c> difficulty</c><00:58:39.219><c> with</c><00:58:39.480><c> opening</c><00:58:39.900><c> the</c><00:58:40.420><c> one</c>

00:58:40.699 --> 00:58:41.579
that's<00:58:41.079><c> the</c><00:58:41.280><c> problem.</c>

00:58:42.000 --> 00:58:44.119
So<00:58:42.119><c> a</c><00:58:42.260><c> few</c><00:58:42.360><c> questions</c><00:58:42.840><c> before</c><00:58:43.239><c> me.</c>

00:58:44.860 --> 00:58:47.559
And<00:58:45.099><c> if</c><00:58:45.239><c> you're</c><00:58:45.539><c> in</c><00:58:45.599><c> fact</c><00:58:45.980><c> looking</c><00:58:46.480><c> for</c><00:58:47.219><c> funds</c>

00:58:47.559 --> 00:58:49.739
for<00:58:47.760><c> a</c><00:58:47.760><c> certain</c><00:58:48.119><c> thing,</c><00:58:48.860><c> you'll</c><00:58:49.079><c> find</c><00:58:49.099><c> it's</c><00:58:49.199><c> quite</c><00:58:49.380><c> difficult</c>

00:58:49.739 --> 00:58:52.599
to<00:58:49.920><c> talk</c><00:58:50.219><c> to</c><00:58:50.380><c> people</c><00:58:50.719><c> as</c><00:58:50.840><c> soon</c><00:58:51.039><c> as</c><00:58:51.059><c> they're</c><00:58:51.280><c> aware</c><00:58:51.360><c> of</c><00:58:51.539><c> that.</c>

00:58:53.019 --> 00:58:54.039
Busy.

00:58:54.840 --> 00:58:56.960
God<00:58:55.099><c> loveth</c><00:58:55.380><c> a</c><00:58:55.619><c> cheerful</c><00:58:55.980><c> giver.</c>

00:58:57.340 --> 00:58:59.239
He<00:58:57.480><c> that</c><00:58:57.739><c> giveth,</c><00:58:58.059><c> therefore,</c><00:58:58.659><c> let</c><00:58:58.800><c> him</c><00:58:58.940><c> do</c><00:58:59.039><c> it</c>

00:58:59.239 --> 00:59:01.659
with<00:58:59.639><c> simplicity,</c><00:59:00.619><c> with</c><00:59:00.800><c> singleness</c><00:59:01.139><c> of</c><00:59:01.480><c> mind.</c>

00:59:01.679 --> 00:59:05.380
That<00:59:01.880><c> means</c><00:59:02.480><c> there's</c><00:59:03.699><c> the</c><00:59:03.980><c> cause,</c><00:59:04.300><c> it's</c><00:59:04.500><c> a</c><00:59:04.659><c> good</c><00:59:04.880><c> cause,</c>

00:59:05.679 --> 00:59:07.519
you<00:59:06.039><c> do</c><00:59:06.179><c> what</c><00:59:06.380><c> you</c><00:59:06.599><c> can.</c>

00:59:07.920 --> 00:59:09.920
Don't<00:59:08.139><c> worry</c><00:59:08.380><c> about</c><00:59:08.559><c> the</c><00:59:08.840><c> consequences.</c>

00:59:12.539 --> 00:59:16.239
He<00:59:12.840><c> that</c><00:59:13.139><c> ruleth,</c><00:59:14.500><c> let</c><00:59:14.539><c> him</c><00:59:14.679><c> do</c><00:59:14.840><c> it</c><00:59:15.000><c> with</c><00:59:15.199><c> diligence.</c>

00:59:16.400 --> 00:59:19.719
And<00:59:16.860><c> how</c><00:59:17.139><c> wonderfully</c><00:59:17.579><c> applicable</c><00:59:17.960><c> that</c><00:59:18.300><c> is</c><00:59:18.500><c> today.</c>

00:59:21.519 --> 00:59:24.360
In<00:59:21.659><c> our</c><00:59:21.900><c> own</c><00:59:22.139><c> time,</c><00:59:22.539><c> I</c><00:59:22.539><c> suppose,</c><00:59:23.619><c> that</c><00:59:23.840><c> comes</c>

00:59:27.179 --> 00:59:29.219
The<00:59:27.300><c> word</c><00:59:27.500><c> rules</c><00:59:27.840><c> means</c><00:59:28.219><c> to</c><00:59:28.559><c> stand</c><00:59:28.840><c> before,</c>

00:59:31.619 --> 00:59:33.400
It<00:59:31.800><c> can</c><00:59:32.039><c> be</c><00:59:32.260><c> a</c><00:59:32.420><c> time,</c><00:59:32.800><c> can</c><00:59:32.800><c> it</c><00:59:32.900><c> not,</c><00:59:33.059><c> brethren,</c>

in<00:59:33.679><c> which</c><00:59:34.079><c> there</c><00:59:34.320><c> are</c><00:59:34.420><c> so</c><00:59:34.679><c> many</c><00:59:34.880><c> problems</c>

00:59:35.579 --> 00:59:38.380
because<00:59:36.460><c> of</c><00:59:36.659><c> the</c><00:59:37.059><c> situation</c><00:59:37.820><c> of</c><00:59:38.019><c> the</c><00:59:38.199><c> world</c>

00:59:38.380 --> 00:59:40.159
that<00:59:38.539><c> we</c><00:59:38.679><c> can</c><00:59:38.820><c> get</c><00:59:39.199><c> to</c><00:59:39.340><c> that</c><00:59:39.539><c> point</c><00:59:39.719><c> of</c><00:59:39.940><c> saying,</c>

00:59:40.519 --> 00:59:42.539
look,<00:59:40.519><c> I</c><00:59:40.679><c> don't</c><00:59:40.960><c> really</c><00:59:41.159><c> want</c><00:59:41.300><c> another</c><00:59:41.679><c> one.</c>

00:59:42.739 --> 00:59:44.699
And<00:59:42.920><c> when</c><00:59:43.059><c> it</c><00:59:43.179><c> becomes</c><00:59:43.559><c> half</c><00:59:43.780><c> past</c><00:59:44.000><c> eleven</c><00:59:44.239><c> at</c><00:59:44.500><c> night,</c>

00:59:44.699 --> 00:59:47.320
so<00:59:44.940><c> look,</c><00:59:45.179><c> I</c><00:59:45.219><c> wish</c><00:59:45.400><c> this</c><00:59:45.659><c> meeting</c><00:59:45.880><c> would</c><00:59:46.219><c> finish,</c>

00:59:52.719 --> 00:59:53.739
Well,<00:59:52.900><c> that's</c><00:59:53.119><c> not</c><00:59:53.320><c> right.</c>

00:59:54.159 --> 00:59:56.179
We<00:59:54.420><c> should</c><00:59:54.599><c> have</c><00:59:54.880><c> endurance</c><00:59:55.420><c> in</c><00:59:55.659><c> those</c><00:59:55.860><c> times</c>

00:59:56.179 --> 00:59:58.260

01:01:16.880 --> 01:01:19.659
And<01:01:17.019><c> they</c><01:01:17.219><c> put</c><01:01:17.480><c> into</c><01:01:17.659><c> that</c><01:01:17.900><c> letter</c><01:01:18.039><c> all</c><01:01:18.440><c> the</c><01:01:18.699><c> ingredients</c>

01:01:24.099 --> 01:01:25.960
It<01:01:24.280><c> took</c><01:01:24.519><c> time</c><01:01:24.860><c> to</c><01:01:25.059><c> think</c><01:01:25.260><c> about</c><01:01:25.519><c> it.</c>

01:01:26.300 --> 01:01:28.159
They<01:01:26.599><c> said,</c><01:01:26.840><c> I'm</c><01:01:26.940><c> going</c><01:01:27.079><c> to</c><01:01:27.239><c> build</c><01:01:27.360><c> that</c><01:01:27.659><c> person</c><01:01:27.900><c> up,</c>
