00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:02.960
Good<00:00:01.360><c> morning,</c><00:00:01.639><c> brothers</c><00:00:01.860><c> and</c><00:00:02.080><c> sisters.</c>

00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:07.940
So<00:00:05.919><c> we're</c><00:00:06.120><c> going</c><00:00:06.280><c> to</c><00:00:06.519><c> come</c><00:00:06.759><c> full</c><00:00:07.080><c> circle</c><00:00:07.459><c> today.</c>

00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:10.220
We<00:00:08.380><c> started</c><00:00:08.880><c> with</c><00:00:09.160><c> Christ.</c>

00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:14.800
We<00:00:10.480><c> spent</c><00:00:10.720><c> a</c><00:00:10.820><c> lot</c><00:00:11.039><c> of</c><00:00:11.500><c> time</c><00:00:11.960><c> thinking</c><00:00:12.519><c> about</c><00:00:13.179><c> the</c><00:00:14.320><c> mechanism</c>

00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:16.300
of<00:00:15.060><c> salvation,</c><00:00:15.560><c> and</c><00:00:15.679><c> we'll</c><00:00:15.939><c> pick</c><00:00:16.140><c> up</c>

00:00:16.300 --> 00:00:19.079
a<00:00:16.460><c> little</c><00:00:16.739><c> bit</c><00:00:16.899><c> on</c><00:00:17.100><c> that</c><00:00:17.379><c> and</c><00:00:17.600><c> again</c><00:00:17.800><c> look</c><00:00:18.039><c> at</c><00:00:18.239><c> the</c><00:00:18.559><c> aspects</c><00:00:18.879><c> of</c>

00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:20.160
the<00:00:19.219><c> crucifixion</c><00:00:19.760><c> today.</c>

00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:25.199
But<00:00:20.760><c> by</c><00:00:21.019><c> coming</c><00:00:21.239><c> full</c><00:00:21.559><c> circle,</c><00:00:22.379><c> we're</c><00:00:22.600><c> back</c><00:00:22.839><c> at</c><00:00:22.960><c> where</c><00:00:23.079><c> we</c><00:00:23.320><c> started</c><00:00:23.699><c> with</c><00:00:24.280><c> the</c>

00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:26.800
deepest<00:00:25.640><c> focus</c><00:00:26.179><c> possible</c>

00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:29.280
on<00:00:27.379><c> our</c><00:00:27.640><c> Lord</c><00:00:27.839><c> Jesus</c><00:00:28.239><c> Christ.</c>

00:00:29.179 --> 00:00:34.179
But<00:00:29.539><c> before</c><00:00:29.940><c> we</c><00:00:30.160><c> do</c><00:00:30.420><c> so,</c><00:00:30.800><c> I</c><00:00:30.879><c> think</c><00:00:31.059><c> it's</c><00:00:31.300><c> important</c><00:00:31.679><c> to</c><00:00:32.079><c> clarify</c><00:00:32.820><c> a</c><00:00:33.420><c> misunderstanding</c><00:00:33.960><c> that</c>

00:00:34.179 --> 00:00:34.679
we<00:00:34.320><c> can</c>

00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:37.820
sometimes<00:00:35.119><c> just</c><00:00:35.560><c> fall</c><00:00:35.799><c> into,</c><00:00:36.780><c> and</c><00:00:37.060><c> it's</c><00:00:37.460><c> easy.</c>

00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:41.380
First<00:00:38.340><c> question</c><00:00:38.740><c> is,</c><00:00:39.320><c> who</c><00:00:39.500><c> is</c><00:00:39.780><c> our</c><00:00:40.000><c> Savior</c><00:00:40.439><c> fundamentally?</c>

00:00:41.859 --> 00:00:45.740
And<00:00:42.140><c> the</c><00:00:42.340><c> answer</c><00:00:42.880><c> ought</c><00:00:43.159><c> to</c><00:00:43.420><c> come</c><00:00:43.799><c> to</c><00:00:44.340><c> our</c><00:00:44.619><c> minds</c><00:00:45.000><c> with</c><00:00:45.439><c> this</c>

00:00:45.740 --> 00:00:49.920
principle,<00:00:46.679><c> which</c><00:00:46.899><c> is</c><00:00:47.259><c> God</c><00:00:48.079><c> is</c><00:00:48.820><c> our</c><00:00:49.060><c> Savior.</c>

00:00:50.619 --> 00:00:56.759
It<00:00:51.420><c> talks</c><00:00:51.920><c> about</c><00:00:52.420><c> our</c><00:00:52.899><c> Savior</c><00:00:53.280><c> something</c><00:00:53.679><c> like</c><00:00:54.060><c> 55</c><00:00:54.659><c> times</c><00:00:55.719><c> in</c>

00:00:56.759 --> 00:00:58.219
the<00:00:56.939><c> whole</c><00:00:57.079><c> of</c><00:00:57.280><c> scripture.</c>

00:00:58.659 --> 00:01:02.280
Sixteen<00:00:59.399><c> of</c><00:00:59.659><c> those</c><00:01:00.000><c> describe</c><00:01:00.500><c> Jesus</c><00:01:00.939><c> as</c><00:01:01.179><c> our</c><00:01:01.380><c> Savior.</c>

00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:06.900
Thirty<00:01:03.320><c>-nine</c><00:01:03.719><c> of</c><00:01:03.979><c> those</c><00:01:04.560><c> describe</c><00:01:05.219><c> God</c><00:01:05.540><c> as</c><00:01:05.780><c> our</c><00:01:06.040><c> Savior.</c>

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:12.180
So<00:01:07.219><c> that's</c><00:01:07.500><c> more</c><00:01:07.840><c> than</c><00:01:08.099><c> twice</c><00:01:08.519><c> as</c><00:01:08.799><c> many</c><00:01:09.159><c> times,</c><00:01:10.099><c> God</c><00:01:10.620><c> is</c><00:01:11.420><c> our</c><00:01:11.739><c> Savior.</c>

00:01:12.180 --> 00:01:16.659
And<00:01:12.540><c> indeed</c><00:01:12.840><c> in</c><00:01:13.060><c> Isaiah</c><00:01:13.459><c> 43,</c><00:01:14.519><c> God</c><00:01:14.799><c> says,</c><00:01:15.780><c> I</c><00:01:15.780><c> am</c><00:01:16.040><c> the</c><00:01:16.340><c> Savior.</c>

00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:19.640
Apart<00:01:17.340><c> from</c><00:01:17.680><c> me,</c><00:01:17.939><c> there</c><00:01:18.219><c> is</c><00:01:18.519><c> none</c><00:01:18.719><c> other.</c>

00:01:20.099 --> 00:01:24.500
So<00:01:20.299><c> we</c><00:01:20.439><c> have</c><00:01:20.620><c> to</c><00:01:20.859><c> think</c><00:01:20.980><c> in</c><00:01:22.340><c> what</c><00:01:22.680><c> sense</c><00:01:22.980><c> is</c><00:01:23.319><c> Jesus</c><00:01:23.939><c> our</c>

00:01:24.500 --> 00:01:26.379
Savior,<00:01:24.840><c> because</c><00:01:25.200><c> clearly</c><00:01:25.579><c> scripture</c><00:01:25.920><c> presents</c>

00:01:26.379 --> 00:01:28.599
Jesus<00:01:26.840><c> as</c><00:01:27.140><c> our</c><00:01:27.379><c> Savior</c><00:01:27.659><c> too.</c>

00:01:29.260 --> 00:01:34.480
And<00:01:29.519><c> Jesus</c><00:01:29.799><c> is</c><00:01:30.040><c> our</c><00:01:30.319><c> Savior</c><00:01:30.799><c> as</c><00:01:31.780><c> the</c><00:01:32.239><c> mechanism</c><00:01:32.980><c> that</c><00:01:33.480><c> God</c><00:01:33.760><c> uses</c><00:01:34.159><c> to</c>

00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:35.239
save<00:01:34.640><c> us.</c>

00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:39.579
God<00:01:35.900><c> is</c><00:01:36.120><c> the</c><00:01:36.359><c> Savior,</c><00:01:36.900><c> and</c><00:01:36.920><c> He</c><00:01:37.239><c> saves</c><00:01:37.579><c> us</c><00:01:38.260><c> through</c><00:01:38.640><c> Jesus,</c><00:01:39.299><c> by</c>

00:01:39.579 --> 00:01:42.120
the<00:01:39.840><c> work</c><00:01:40.060><c> of</c><00:01:40.239><c> Jesus,</c><00:01:41.099><c> in</c><00:01:41.359><c> the</c><00:01:41.640><c> life</c><00:01:41.939><c> and</c>

00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:45.439
death<00:01:42.400><c> and</c><00:01:42.599><c> resurrection</c><00:01:43.120><c> and</c><00:01:43.400><c> high</c><00:01:43.739><c> priesthood,</c><00:01:44.560><c> and</c><00:01:45.040><c> the</c>

00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:48.379
judging<00:01:45.859><c> of</c><00:01:46.640><c> Jesus</c><00:01:47.200><c> is</c><00:01:47.659><c> the</c><00:01:47.859><c> way</c><00:01:48.079><c> in</c><00:01:48.219><c> which</c>

00:01:48.379 --> 00:01:49.180
God<00:01:48.620><c> saves</c><00:01:48.920><c> us.</c>

00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:53.500
So<00:01:49.599><c> the</c><00:01:49.739><c> work</c><00:01:50.019><c> of</c><00:01:50.159><c> Jesus</c><00:01:50.560><c> is</c><00:01:50.879><c> not</c><00:01:51.180><c> apart</c><00:01:51.859><c> from</c><00:01:52.180><c> God,</c><00:01:52.840><c> it</c><00:01:53.099><c> is</c>

00:01:53.500 --> 00:01:54.900
God's<00:01:53.980><c> work.</c>

00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:58.980
He<00:01:55.319><c> is</c><00:01:55.579><c> there</c><00:01:55.780><c> as</c><00:01:55.939><c> God's</c><00:01:56.459><c> agent,</c><00:01:57.159><c> as</c><00:01:57.400><c> God's</c><00:01:58.140><c> right</c><00:01:58.420><c>-hand</c><00:01:58.640><c> man.</c>

00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:03.319
So<00:01:59.680><c> let's</c><00:01:59.920><c> now</c><00:02:00.200><c> think</c><00:02:00.439><c> about</c><00:02:00.760><c> this</c><00:02:01.120><c> work</c><00:02:01.579><c> of</c><00:02:02.420><c> saving</c><00:02:02.719><c> and</c><00:02:03.019><c> judging.</c>

00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:06.159
And<00:02:03.700><c> I'd</c><00:02:03.959><c> like</c><00:02:04.099><c> you</c><00:02:04.340><c> to,</c><00:02:04.859><c> just</c><00:02:05.079><c> to</c><00:02:05.299><c> think</c><00:02:05.439><c> a</c><00:02:05.560><c> little</c><00:02:05.780><c> bit</c><00:02:05.920><c> and</c>

00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:08.759
realize<00:02:06.640><c> that</c><00:02:06.859><c> in</c><00:02:07.079><c> some</c><00:02:07.400><c> sense,</c><00:02:08.599><c> saving</c>

00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:13.099
and<00:02:09.219><c> judging</c><00:02:09.659><c> are</c><00:02:10.280><c> actually</c><00:02:10.719><c> two</c><00:02:11.159><c> aspects</c><00:02:11.599><c> of</c><00:02:11.819><c> the</c><00:02:11.960><c> same</c><00:02:12.180><c> thing.</c>

00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:16.099
Let<00:02:13.919><c> me</c><00:02:14.060><c> give</c><00:02:14.219><c> you</c><00:02:14.659><c> an</c><00:02:15.099><c> analogy.</c>

00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:21.759
Suppose<00:02:17.199><c> somebody</c><00:02:17.639><c> is</c><00:02:18.379><c> teaching</c><00:02:18.759><c> you</c><00:02:19.319><c> to</c><00:02:20.159><c> parachute</c><00:02:20.800><c> jump.</c>

00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:25.900
What<00:02:23.219><c> they</c><00:02:23.419><c> have</c><00:02:23.620><c> to</c><00:02:23.759><c> do</c><00:02:23.840><c> is</c><00:02:23.979><c> they</c><00:02:24.099><c> have</c><00:02:24.360><c> to</c><00:02:24.620><c> teach</c><00:02:24.780><c> you</c><00:02:25.060><c> all</c><00:02:25.360><c> sorts</c><00:02:25.659><c> of</c>

00:02:25.900 --> 00:02:27.560
things,<00:02:26.300><c> including</c><00:02:26.780><c> how</c><00:02:27.280><c> to</c>

00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:31.259
pull<00:02:27.699><c> the</c><00:02:27.879><c> rip</c><00:02:28.139><c> cord,</c><00:02:28.740><c> and</c><00:02:29.199><c> they're</c><00:02:29.719><c> making</c><00:02:30.099><c> assessments</c><00:02:30.780><c> all</c>

00:02:31.259 --> 00:02:33.259
the<00:02:31.520><c> time</c><00:02:31.719><c> as</c><00:02:31.840><c> they're</c><00:02:32.080><c> teaching</c><00:02:32.419><c> you,</c><00:02:32.939><c> whether</c>

00:02:33.259 --> 00:02:36.479

00:04:18.379 --> 00:04:21.240
There's<00:04:18.500><c> this</c><00:04:18.639><c> wonderful</c><00:04:19.139><c> couple</c><00:04:19.680><c> of</c><00:04:19.899><c> verses</c><00:04:20.160><c> in</c><00:04:20.379><c> Deuteronomy</c><00:04:20.819><c> 18.</c>

And<00:05:15.019><c> so</c><00:05:15.240><c> God</c><00:05:15.500><c> says,</c><00:05:17.120><c> they're</c><00:05:17.620><c> right.</c>

00:05:18.459 --> 00:05:21.579
They<00:05:18.740><c> are</c><00:05:19.220><c> so</c><00:05:19.680><c> terrified</c><00:05:20.220><c> of</c><00:05:20.459><c> me</c><00:05:20.600><c> that</c><00:05:20.720><c> they're</c><00:05:20.920><c> not</c><00:05:21.079><c> able</c><00:05:21.319><c> to</c>

00:05:24.699 --> 00:05:29.220
And<00:05:24.899><c> so,</c><00:05:26.100><c> for</c><00:05:26.199><c> the</c><00:05:26.500><c> sake</c><00:05:26.680><c> of</c><00:05:27.019><c> our</c><00:05:27.300><c> weakness,</c><00:05:28.600><c> the</c><00:05:28.740><c> Lord</c><00:05:28.959><c> said</c>

00:05:31.860 --> 00:05:34.899
I<00:05:32.180><c> will</c><00:05:32.560><c> raise</c><00:05:32.879><c> up</c><00:05:33.139><c> for</c><00:05:33.279><c> them</c><00:05:33.459><c> a</c><00:05:33.699><c> prophet</c><00:05:34.019><c> like</c><00:05:34.439><c> you</c><00:05:34.680><c> from</c>

among<00:05:35.139><c> their</c><00:05:35.420><c> brothers.</c>

00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:38.819
I'll<00:05:36.019><c> put</c><00:05:36.199><c> my</c><00:05:36.600><c> words</c><00:05:36.800><c> in</c><00:05:36.959><c> his</c><00:05:37.240><c> mouth,</c><00:05:37.980><c> and</c><00:05:38.120><c> he</c><00:05:38.259><c> will</c><00:05:38.439><c> tell</c><00:05:38.660><c> them</c>

00:05:38.819 --> 00:05:40.139
everything<00:05:39.139><c> I</c><00:05:39.379><c> command</c><00:05:39.740><c> him,</c><00:05:39.959><c> verse</c>

00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:46.079
If<00:05:41.060><c> anyone</c><00:05:41.360><c> does</c><00:05:41.620><c> not</c><00:05:41.800><c> listen</c><00:05:42.100><c> to</c><00:05:42.339><c> my</c><00:05:42.600><c> words,</c><00:05:43.459><c> that</c><00:05:43.699><c> that</c><00:05:44.040><c> prophet</c><00:05:44.240><c> speaks</c><00:05:44.620><c> in</c><00:05:44.800><c> my</c><00:05:45.060><c> name,</c><00:05:45.779><c> I</c>

00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:46.800
myself<00:05:46.540><c> will</c>

00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:48.220

00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:53.040
So<00:05:48.980><c> God</c><00:05:49.439><c> says,</c><00:05:50.540><c> I'm</c><00:05:50.660><c> working</c><00:05:50.980><c> through</c><00:05:51.240><c> you</c><00:05:51.459><c> Moses,</c><00:05:52.540><c> I'm</c><00:05:52.860><c> going</c>

00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:01.160
the<00:06:00.759><c> one</c><00:06:00.899><c> who</c>

00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:03.720
speaks<00:06:01.379><c> my</c><00:06:01.680><c> words,</c><00:06:02.199><c> and</c><00:06:02.420><c> they</c><00:06:02.620><c> need</c><00:06:02.819><c> to</c><00:06:03.060><c> listen</c><00:06:03.279><c> to</c><00:06:03.459><c> him.</c>

00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:08.600
And<00:06:03.980><c> so,</c><00:06:04.439><c> all</c><00:06:04.720><c> through</c><00:06:05.060><c> history,</c><00:06:05.939><c> God</c><00:06:06.220><c> has</c><00:06:06.600><c> used</c><00:06:07.060><c> prophet</c><00:06:07.620><c> leaders</c><00:06:08.079><c> to</c>

00:06:10.379 --> 00:06:13.600
the<00:06:10.620><c> word</c><00:06:10.740><c> of</c><00:06:10.939><c> God</c><00:06:11.160><c> to</c><00:06:11.459><c> us,</c><00:06:12.000><c> so</c><00:06:12.160><c> that</c><00:06:12.319><c> we</c><00:06:12.420><c> can</c><00:06:12.660><c> learn</c><00:06:12.959><c> from</c><00:06:13.220><c> God</c>

00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:16.459
without<00:06:14.199><c> being</c><00:06:14.660><c> terrified</c><00:06:15.339><c> by</c><00:06:15.620><c> the</c><00:06:15.959><c> awesome</c>

00:06:16.459 --> 00:06:18.660
majesty<00:06:16.980><c> and</c><00:06:17.220><c> power</c><00:06:17.420><c> of</c><00:06:17.579><c> God</c><00:06:17.740><c> himself.</c>

00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:22.560
Noah,<00:06:19.240><c> Abraham,</c><00:06:19.740><c> David,</c><00:06:20.360><c> Samuel,</c><00:06:20.819><c> Zerubbabel,</c><00:06:21.980><c> even</c><00:06:22.259><c> people</c>

00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:24.360
like<00:06:22.819><c> Peter</c><00:06:23.139><c> and</c><00:06:23.360><c> Paul.</c>

00:06:24.420 --> 00:06:26.920
Paul<00:06:24.680><c> says,</c><00:06:25.040><c> I'm</c><00:06:25.040><c> bringing</c><00:06:25.360><c> the</c><00:06:25.639><c> message</c><00:06:25.879><c> of</c><00:06:26.199><c> reconciliation</c>

00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:31.660
So<00:06:28.800><c> God</c><00:06:29.040><c> has</c><00:06:29.399><c> always</c><00:06:29.860><c> worked</c><00:06:30.180><c> through</c><00:06:30.360><c> these</c><00:06:30.600><c> prophet</c><00:06:30.879><c> leaders,</c><00:06:31.459><c> but</c>

00:06:31.660 --> 00:06:34.720
there's<00:06:32.060><c> one</c><00:06:32.600><c> supreme</c><00:06:33.639><c> prophet</c><00:06:34.300><c> leader</c>

00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:36.879
that<00:06:35.199><c> he</c><00:06:35.360><c> has</c><00:06:35.459><c> been</c><00:06:35.699><c> working</c><00:06:36.040><c> through.</c>

00:06:36.899 --> 00:06:41.600
So<00:06:37.120><c> a</c><00:06:37.259><c> good</c><00:06:37.439><c> question</c><00:06:37.899><c> is,</c><00:06:38.540><c> why</c><00:06:39.060><c> does</c><00:06:39.379><c> God</c><00:06:39.699><c> need</c><00:06:40.060><c> to</c><00:06:40.360><c> appoint</c><00:06:40.639><c> someone?</c>

00:06:43.579 --> 00:06:46.920
Of<00:06:43.959><c> course,</c><00:06:44.339><c> part</c><00:06:44.519><c> of</c><00:06:44.639><c> it</c><00:06:44.759><c> we've</c><00:06:45.160><c> seen</c><00:06:45.319><c> already</c><00:06:45.680><c> is</c><00:06:45.860><c> that</c><00:06:46.019><c> we're</c><00:06:46.339><c> afraid</c><00:06:46.660><c> of</c>

00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:48.740
God,<00:06:47.680><c> but</c><00:06:48.000><c> there's</c><00:06:48.379><c> this</c>

00:08:43.500 --> 00:08:48.320

00:12:45.500 --> 00:12:49.179
And<00:12:45.799><c> the</c><00:12:46.059><c> owner</c><00:12:46.360><c> says,</c><00:12:47.000><c> if</c><00:12:47.240><c> you</c><00:12:47.559><c> volunteer</c><00:12:48.080><c> to</c><00:12:48.320><c> do</c><00:12:48.500><c> that,</c><00:12:48.960><c> then</c>

00:12:49.179 --> 00:12:51.899
I<00:12:49.700><c> certainly</c><00:12:50.100><c> give</c><00:12:50.399><c> you</c><00:12:50.620><c> that</c><00:12:50.919><c> time.</c>

00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:56.379
And<00:12:54.299><c> I</c><00:12:54.480><c> think</c><00:12:54.620><c> that</c><00:12:54.820><c> that's</c><00:12:55.019><c> what</c><00:12:55.200><c> God</c><00:12:55.419><c> was</c><00:12:55.620><c> wanting</c><00:12:55.860><c> in</c><00:12:56.100><c> Israel.</c>

00:12:56.379 --> 00:13:00.340
He<00:12:56.559><c> was</c><00:12:56.840><c> wanting</c><00:12:57.179><c> someone</c><00:12:57.500><c> who</c><00:12:57.740><c> would</c><00:12:57.860><c> be</c><00:12:58.059><c> there</c><00:12:58.259><c> to</c><00:12:58.519><c> volunteer,</c><00:12:59.600><c> to</c><00:12:59.799><c> work</c>

00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:06.159
I<00:13:03.200><c> looked</c><00:13:03.419><c> for</c><00:13:03.679><c> someone</c><00:13:03.919><c> to</c><00:13:04.399><c> stand</c><00:13:04.659><c> in</c><00:13:04.879><c> the</c><00:13:05.100><c> breach</c><00:13:05.419><c> so</c><00:13:05.840><c> that</c><00:13:06.039><c> I</c>

00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:09.539

00:13:20.620 --> 00:13:22.320
What's<00:13:20.960><c> God's</c><00:13:21.340><c> right</c><00:13:21.580><c> arm?</c>

00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:24.960

Isaiah<00:13:25.360><c> 53.</c>

00:13:26.620 --> 00:13:28.620
He<00:13:26.820><c> grew</c><00:13:27.000><c> it</c><00:13:27.159><c> before</c><00:13:27.399><c> him</c><00:13:27.539><c> like</c><00:13:27.799><c> a</c><00:13:28.000><c> tender</c><00:13:28.220><c> shoot.</c>

00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:30.299
It's<00:13:29.159><c> Jesus.</c>

00:13:31.620 --> 00:13:33.440
He<00:13:31.899><c> is</c><00:13:32.340><c> God</c><00:13:32.879><c> saving.</c>

00:13:33.659 --> 00:13:38.840
He<00:13:33.779><c> is</c><00:13:34.100><c> God</c><00:13:34.679><c> sending</c><00:13:35.820><c> someone</c><00:13:36.399><c> to</c><00:13:37.019><c> stand</c><00:13:37.440><c> in</c><00:13:37.679><c> the</c><00:13:37.919><c> breach</c><00:13:38.259><c> so</c>

00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:41.320
that<00:13:39.039><c> God</c><00:13:39.679><c> won't</c><00:13:40.220><c> have</c><00:13:40.519><c> to</c><00:13:40.700><c> destroy</c><00:13:41.059><c> us</c>

00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:43.580
because<00:13:41.539><c> there's</c><00:13:41.860><c> nothing</c><00:13:42.240><c> worth</c><00:13:42.559><c> saving.</c>

00:13:43.820 --> 00:13:47.440
He's<00:13:44.240><c> creating</c><00:13:44.879><c> something</c><00:13:45.460><c> that's</c><00:13:45.899><c> worth</c><00:13:46.220><c> saving</c><00:13:46.700><c> in</c><00:13:47.100><c> each</c>

00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:48.639

00:13:48.899 --> 00:13:50.139
He's<00:13:49.399><c> changing</c><00:13:49.759><c> us.</c>

00:13:50.139 --> 00:13:54.639
He's<00:13:50.740><c> transforming</c><00:13:51.279><c> us</c><00:13:51.940><c> by</c><00:13:52.279><c> the</c><00:13:52.519><c> renewing</c><00:13:53.299><c> of</c><00:13:53.500><c> our</c><00:13:53.779><c> mind.</c>

So<00:13:55.360><c> a</c><00:13:55.460><c> good</c><00:13:55.659><c> question,</c><00:13:56.320><c> then,</c><00:13:56.639><c> is</c><00:13:56.919><c> what</c><00:13:57.120><c> should</c><00:13:57.340><c> the</c><00:13:57.679><c> Savior</c>

00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:02.519
What<00:13:59.240><c> kind</c><00:13:59.460><c> of</c><00:13:59.919><c> characteristics</c><00:14:00.460><c> do</c><00:14:01.039><c> we</c><00:14:01.379><c> expect</c><00:14:01.740><c> of</c><00:14:02.200><c> the</c>

Savior<00:14:02.840><c> judge?</c>

00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:07.559
Well,<00:14:04.460><c> we've</c><00:14:04.799><c> seen</c><00:14:04.960><c> already</c><00:14:05.379><c> and</c><00:14:05.659><c> spent</c><00:14:05.940><c> quite</c><00:14:06.240><c> a</c><00:14:06.360><c> lot</c><00:14:06.500><c> of</c><00:14:06.679><c> time</c><00:14:06.860><c> yesterday</c><00:14:07.320><c> on</c>

00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:08.940
this<00:14:07.740><c> idea</c><00:14:08.179><c> that</c>

00:14:13.059 --> 00:14:19.159
And<00:14:13.620><c> so</c><00:14:13.840><c> there</c><00:14:14.399><c> are</c><00:14:14.700><c> truths</c><00:14:15.399><c> that</c><00:14:15.980><c> I</c><00:14:16.480><c> cannot</c><00:14:16.899><c> speak</c><00:14:17.360><c> to</c><00:14:17.639><c> you</c><00:14:18.179><c> because</c><00:14:18.759><c> of</c>

00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:23.320

00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:25.659
We<00:14:24.580><c> see</c><00:14:24.820><c> the</c><00:14:25.019><c> same</c><00:14:25.139><c> with</c><00:14:25.379><c> Moses.</c>

And<00:14:34.299><c> this</c><00:14:34.600><c> is</c><00:14:34.899><c> why</c><00:14:35.519><c> God's</c><00:14:36.379><c> Savior,</c><00:14:36.820><c> the</c><00:14:36.940><c> one</c><00:14:37.100><c> that</c><00:14:37.340><c> He</c><00:14:37.600><c> appoints</c><00:14:38.120><c> in</c><00:14:38.179><c> order</c><00:14:38.419><c> to</c>

It<00:14:52.659><c> completely</c><00:14:53.580><c> manifests</c><00:14:54.740><c> the</c><00:14:55.580><c> judgment</c><00:14:55.879><c> of</c><00:14:56.059><c> the</c><00:14:56.240><c> Father.</c>

00:14:56.740 --> 00:15:01.440
His<00:14:57.080><c> leadership</c><00:14:57.659><c> is</c><00:14:57.940><c> not</c><00:14:58.299><c> diminished</c><00:14:58.919><c> by</c><00:14:59.220><c> His</c><00:14:59.480><c> own</c><00:15:00.019><c> weaknesses,</c><00:15:00.879><c> His</c><00:15:01.080><c> own</c>

00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.700
And<00:15:04.240><c> so</c><00:15:04.340><c> we</c><00:15:04.519><c> have</c><00:15:04.740><c> the</c><00:15:05.139><c> Son</c><00:15:05.600><c> as</c><00:15:06.360><c> the</c><00:15:06.759><c> manifestation</c><00:15:07.259><c> of</c><00:15:07.440><c> the</c><00:15:07.539><c> Father.</c>

00:15:07.700 --> 00:15:09.639
And<00:15:07.759><c> we've</c><00:15:08.000><c> gone</c><00:15:08.120><c> to</c><00:15:08.299><c> this</c><00:15:08.480><c> Scripture</c><00:15:08.759><c> a</c><00:15:08.919><c> number</c><00:15:09.080><c> of</c><00:15:09.299><c> times</c><00:15:09.500><c> in</c>

you<00:15:13.720><c> the</c><00:15:13.919><c> Father.</c>

00:15:15.100 --> 00:15:16.580
The<00:15:15.440><c> Father</c><00:15:15.759><c> is</c><00:15:16.019><c> in</c><00:15:16.379><c> me.</c>

00:15:16.620 --> 00:15:21.279
The<00:15:16.919><c> things</c><00:15:17.220><c> I</c><00:15:17.679><c> do</c><00:15:17.940><c> is</c><00:15:18.200><c> the</c><00:15:18.460><c> Father</c><00:15:18.759><c> working</c><00:15:19.240><c> through</c><00:15:19.679><c> me.</c>

00:15:22.379 --> 00:15:26.559
Look<00:15:22.600><c> at</c><00:15:22.799><c> Acts</c><00:15:23.120><c> chapter</c><00:15:23.440><c> 5</c><00:15:24.600><c> and</c><00:15:25.019><c> verse</c><00:15:25.240><c> 31.</c>

00:15:28.059 --> 00:15:32.879
Acts<00:15:28.899><c> chapter</c><00:15:29.240><c> 5,</c><00:15:30.899><c> verse</c><00:15:31.159><c> 31.</c>

00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:46.139
This<00:15:40.700><c> is</c><00:15:41.000><c> Peter</c><00:15:41.419><c> making</c><00:15:42.059><c> his</c><00:15:43.440><c> defense,</c><00:15:44.100><c> if</c><00:15:44.279><c> you</c><00:15:44.500><c> like,</c><00:15:45.779><c> some</c>

scribes<00:15:49.639><c> and</c><00:15:49.799><c> Pharisees.</c>

00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:55.159
He<00:15:50.379><c> says,</c><00:15:51.480><c> God</c><00:15:51.740><c> exalted</c><00:15:52.399><c> Him,</c><00:15:52.799><c> Jesus,</c><00:15:53.220><c> to</c><00:15:53.379><c> His</c><00:15:53.600><c> own</c><00:15:53.799><c> right</c><00:15:54.139><c> hand</c><00:15:54.539><c> as</c>

00:15:55.159 --> 00:15:58.139
Prince<00:15:55.759><c> and</c><00:15:56.460><c> Savior</c><00:15:56.940><c> that</c><00:15:57.639><c> He</c><00:15:57.860><c> might</c>

00:15:58.139 --> 00:16:03.120
give<00:15:58.419><c> repentance</c><00:15:59.179><c> and</c><00:15:59.960><c> forgiveness</c><00:16:00.500><c> of</c><00:16:00.960><c> sins</c><00:16:01.419><c> to</c><00:16:02.019><c> Israel.</c>

00:16:04.220 --> 00:16:06.799
That's<00:16:04.740><c> why</c><00:16:04.919><c> the</c><00:16:05.120><c> resurrection</c><00:16:05.480><c> was</c><00:16:05.740><c> necessary.</c>

00:16:07.659 --> 00:16:11.740
The<00:16:07.919><c> work</c><00:16:08.299><c> of</c><00:16:08.639><c> Jesus,</c><00:16:09.360><c> Peter</c><00:16:09.700><c> says,</c><00:16:10.379><c> is</c><00:16:10.580><c> to</c><00:16:10.779><c> bring</c><00:16:10.919><c> repentance</c>

00:16:11.740 --> 00:16:15.000
and<00:16:13.200><c> forgiveness</c><00:16:13.740><c> to</c><00:16:13.980><c> Israel.</c>

00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:17.940
A<00:16:16.320><c> dead</c><00:16:16.700><c> Savior</c><00:16:17.100><c> can't</c><00:16:17.460><c> do</c><00:16:17.639><c> that.</c>

00:16:17.940 --> 00:16:21.919
He<00:16:18.220><c> was</c><00:16:18.480><c> raised</c><00:16:18.799><c> from</c><00:16:19.019><c> the</c><00:16:19.200><c> dead</c><00:16:19.460><c> in</c><00:16:19.960><c> order</c><00:16:20.440><c> to</c><00:16:21.240><c> do</c><00:16:21.440><c> that,</c><00:16:21.679><c> in</c>

00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:24.440
order<00:16:22.320><c> to</c><00:16:22.620><c> bring</c><00:16:23.200><c> forgiveness</c><00:16:23.779><c> of</c><00:16:24.120><c> sins</c>

00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:25.460
to<00:16:25.039><c> Israel.</c>

00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:29.159
So<00:16:25.860><c> this</c><00:16:26.059><c> is</c><00:16:26.320><c> the</c><00:16:26.600><c> kind</c><00:16:26.820><c> of</c><00:16:27.019><c> thing</c><00:16:27.159><c> that</c><00:16:27.340><c> a</c><00:16:27.580><c> Savior</c><00:16:27.879><c> judge</c><00:16:28.200><c> should</c><00:16:28.519><c> be</c><00:16:28.820><c> like.</c>

00:16:29.639 --> 00:16:32.740
And<00:16:29.759><c> Jesus,</c><00:16:30.440><c> therefore,</c><00:16:30.620><c> is</c><00:16:30.919><c> able</c><00:16:31.259><c> to</c><00:16:31.679><c> save</c><00:16:31.980><c> and</c><00:16:32.379><c> judge</c><00:16:32.580><c> on</c>

00:16:32.740 --> 00:16:33.259
God's<00:16:33.039><c> behalf.</c>

00:16:33.539 --> 00:16:37.100
In<00:16:33.659><c> fact,</c><00:16:34.480><c> a</c><00:16:34.740><c> fascinating</c><00:16:35.279><c> way</c><00:16:35.559><c> to</c><00:16:35.700><c> look</c><00:16:35.860><c> at</c><00:16:36.000><c> the</c><00:16:36.240><c> whole</c><00:16:36.399><c> of</c><00:16:36.600><c> the</c><00:16:36.720><c> book</c><00:16:36.860><c> of</c>

00:16:46.259 --> 00:16:47.299
I<00:16:46.379><c> don't</c><00:16:46.580><c> know</c><00:16:46.620><c> if</c><00:16:46.700><c> you've</c><00:16:46.899><c> noticed.</c>

00:16:47.299 --> 00:16:49.779
It's<00:16:47.940><c> about,</c><00:16:48.700><c> do</c><00:16:48.700><c> not</c><00:16:48.960><c> be</c><00:16:49.299><c> divided.</c>

00:16:50.259 --> 00:16:53.460

00:17:01.259 --> 00:17:05.259
And<00:17:01.559><c> it</c><00:17:01.720><c> presents</c><00:17:02.039><c> us</c><00:17:02.240><c> with</c><00:17:02.519><c> different</c><00:17:02.759><c> leaders</c><00:17:03.200><c> and</c><00:17:03.899><c> analyzes</c><00:17:04.500><c> the</c><00:17:04.720><c> behavior</c><00:17:05.079><c> of</c>

00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:39.579
Jesus,<00:17:36.740><c> however,</c><00:17:37.940><c> was</c><00:17:38.160><c> able</c><00:17:38.420><c> to</c><00:17:38.779><c> manifest</c><00:17:39.059><c> the</c><00:17:39.339><c> Father.</c>

00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:57.319
Jesus<00:17:52.339><c> wasn't</c><00:17:52.660><c> simply</c><00:17:53.240><c> a</c><00:17:53.700><c> robot</c><00:17:54.180><c> that</c><00:17:54.460><c> God</c><00:17:54.740><c> made</c><00:17:55.220><c> as</c><00:17:55.660><c> a</c><00:17:55.900><c> perfect</c><00:17:56.220><c> manifestation</c><00:17:56.880><c> of</c><00:17:57.160><c> God.</c>

00:17:57.539 --> 00:17:58.960

So<00:30:28.299><c> Moses</c><00:30:28.660><c> went</c><00:30:28.900><c> back</c><00:30:29.200><c> to</c><00:30:29.400><c> the</c><00:30:29.539><c> Lord</c><00:30:29.920><c> and</c><00:30:30.680><c> said,</c>

00:30:31.059 --> 00:30:33.099
Oh,<00:30:31.099><c> what</c><00:30:31.200><c> a</c><00:30:31.460><c> great</c><00:30:31.680><c> sin</c><00:30:31.920><c> these</c><00:30:32.180><c> people</c><00:30:32.500><c> have</c><00:30:32.700><c> committed.</c>

00:30:33.539 --> 00:30:37.619
They<00:30:33.640><c> have</c><00:30:33.900><c> made</c><00:30:34.160><c> themselves</c><00:30:34.779><c> gods</c><00:30:35.180><c> of</c><00:30:35.460><c> gold,</c><00:30:35.720><c> but</c><00:30:35.900><c> now</c><00:30:36.259><c> please</c><00:30:36.640><c> forgive</c><00:30:37.059><c> their</c><00:30:37.359><c> sin.</c>

00:30:38.019 --> 00:30:40.740
But<00:30:38.220><c> if</c><00:30:38.519><c> not,</c><00:30:38.779><c> then</c><00:30:39.000><c> please</c><00:30:39.380><c> blot</c><00:30:39.599><c> me</c><00:30:39.880><c> out</c><00:30:40.119><c> of</c><00:30:40.279><c> the</c><00:30:40.440><c> book</c><00:30:40.579><c> you</c>

00:30:41.660 --> 00:30:45.799
The<00:30:41.880><c> Lord</c><00:30:42.180><c> replied</c><00:30:42.619><c> to</c><00:30:42.859><c> Moses,</c><00:30:43.559><c> whoever</c><00:30:43.920><c> have</c><00:30:44.319><c> sinned</c><00:30:44.559><c> against</c><00:30:44.859><c> me,</c><00:30:45.180><c> I'll</c><00:30:45.299><c> blot</c><00:30:45.480><c> out</c><00:30:45.660><c> of</c>

00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:46.200
my<00:30:46.019><c> book.</c>

00:30:46.500 --> 00:30:49.160
Now<00:30:46.680><c> go</c><00:30:47.000><c> lead</c><00:30:47.200><c> the</c><00:30:47.460><c> people</c><00:30:47.660><c> to</c><00:30:47.839><c> the</c><00:30:48.019><c> place</c><00:30:48.180><c> I</c><00:30:48.460><c> spoke</c><00:30:48.660><c> of</c><00:30:48.819><c> and</c><00:30:48.940><c> my</c>

00:30:49.160 --> 00:30:51.099

00:30:51.400 --> 00:30:54.799
However,<00:30:52.000><c> when</c><00:30:52.559><c> the</c><00:30:52.839><c> time</c><00:30:52.980><c> comes</c><00:30:53.200><c> for</c><00:30:53.380><c> me</c><00:30:53.559><c> to</c><00:30:53.859><c> punish,</c><00:30:54.420><c> I</c><00:30:54.559><c> will</c>

00:30:54.799 --> 00:30:55.859

00:30:55.859 --> 00:30:58.259
Moses<00:30:56.579><c> gets</c><00:30:56.859><c> into</c><00:30:57.140><c> this</c><00:30:57.400><c> bargain</c><00:30:57.740><c> with</c><00:30:57.980><c> God.</c>

00:30:58.339 --> 00:31:01.539
He's<00:30:58.619><c> trying</c><00:30:58.839><c> to,</c><00:30:59.160><c> he</c><00:30:59.160><c> says,</c><00:30:59.519><c> look,</c><00:30:59.900><c> forgive</c><00:31:00.180><c> them</c><00:31:00.660><c> or</c><00:31:01.240><c> blot</c>

00:31:01.539 --> 00:31:02.160
me<00:31:01.839><c> out.</c>

00:31:02.380 --> 00:31:04.720
And<00:31:02.519><c> God</c><00:31:02.700><c> says,</c><00:31:02.920><c> I</c><00:31:03.019><c> don't</c><00:31:03.180><c> do</c><00:31:03.359><c> things</c><00:31:03.559><c> that</c><00:31:03.799><c> way.</c>

00:31:05.539 --> 00:31:08.779
The<00:31:05.759><c> one</c><00:31:05.980><c> who</c><00:31:06.200><c> has</c><00:31:06.539><c> sinned,</c><00:31:07.240><c> I'll</c><00:31:07.440><c> blot</c><00:31:07.680><c> out.</c>

00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:11.180
But<00:31:09.039><c> the</c><00:31:09.200><c> one</c><00:31:09.319><c> whose</c><00:31:09.539><c> name</c><00:31:09.720><c> should</c><00:31:09.920><c> be</c><00:31:10.079><c> in</c><00:31:10.160><c> the</c><00:31:10.339><c> book</c><00:31:10.519><c> will</c><00:31:10.779><c> stay</c><00:31:11.000><c> in</c>

00:31:11.180 --> 00:31:12.180
the<00:31:11.319><c> book.</c>

00:31:12.980 --> 00:31:14.779
He's<00:31:13.460><c> rejecting</c><00:31:13.940><c> this.</c>

00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:18.339
It's<00:31:15.599><c> almost</c><00:31:15.839><c> emotional</c><00:31:16.380><c> blackmail</c><00:31:16.960><c> that</c><00:31:17.440><c> Moses</c><00:31:17.779><c> is</c><00:31:18.099><c> trying</c>

00:31:18.339 --> 00:31:19.700
to<00:31:18.579><c> do</c><00:31:18.680><c> with</c><00:31:18.839><c> God.</c>

00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:23.500
Here's<00:31:22.339><c> a</c><00:31:22.519><c> question.</c>

00:31:23.940 --> 00:31:26.640
When<00:31:24.420><c> is</c><00:31:24.640><c> the</c><00:31:24.779><c> book</c><00:31:24.960><c> of</c><00:31:25.140><c> life</c><00:31:25.380><c> being</c><00:31:25.700><c> written?</c>

00:31:29.839 --> 00:31:33.700
If<00:31:30.039><c> Moses</c><00:31:30.480><c> says,</c><00:31:31.559><c> blot</c><00:31:31.619><c> my</c><00:31:31.940><c> name</c><00:31:32.259><c> out</c><00:31:32.640><c> of</c><00:31:32.799><c> the</c><00:31:33.000><c> book,</c><00:31:33.279><c> it</c><00:31:33.420><c> must</c>

00:31:33.700 --> 00:31:35.559
already<00:31:34.079><c> be</c><00:31:34.339><c> in</c><00:31:34.539><c> the</c><00:31:34.720><c> book.</c>

00:31:36.420 --> 00:31:39.500
You<00:31:36.539><c> can't</c><00:31:36.960><c> blot</c><00:31:37.220><c> something</c><00:31:37.619><c> out</c><00:31:37.960><c> that's</c><00:31:38.220><c> not</c><00:31:38.460><c> there.</c>

00:31:40.980 --> 00:31:44.059
So<00:31:41.180><c> I</c><00:31:41.279><c> think</c><00:31:41.460><c> we</c><00:31:41.619><c> have</c><00:31:41.839><c> to</c><00:31:42.059><c> conclude,</c><00:31:42.700><c> even</c><00:31:42.980><c> just</c><00:31:43.180><c> from</c><00:31:43.420><c> this</c><00:31:43.619><c> scripture,</c>

00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:48.140
that<00:31:44.680><c> Moses</c><00:31:45.559><c> knew</c><00:31:46.079><c> that</c><00:31:46.359><c> his</c><00:31:46.599><c> name</c><00:31:46.819><c> was</c><00:31:47.079><c> in</c><00:31:47.279><c> the</c><00:31:47.500><c> book</c><00:31:47.680><c> of</c><00:31:47.920><c> life.</c>

00:31:48.140 --> 00:31:50.720
And<00:31:48.299><c> he</c><00:31:48.480><c> says,</c><00:31:49.059><c> you</c><00:31:49.140><c> know,</c><00:31:49.660><c> blot</c><00:31:49.839><c> my</c><00:31:50.079><c> name</c><00:31:50.319><c> out.</c>

00:31:50.720 --> 00:31:53.839
And<00:31:51.039><c> God</c><00:31:51.240><c> says,</c><00:31:51.759><c> no,</c><00:31:51.880><c> I'll</c><00:31:52.099><c> blot</c><00:31:52.299><c> out</c><00:31:52.500><c> the</c><00:31:52.680><c> name</c><00:31:52.839><c> of</c><00:31:53.140><c> other</c><00:31:53.359><c> people,</c><00:31:53.700><c> but</c>

00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:56.000
I<00:31:54.039><c> won't</c><00:31:54.259><c> blot</c><00:31:54.579><c> out</c><00:31:54.859><c> your</c><00:31:55.140><c> name.</c>

00:31:56.160 --> 00:31:59.299
In<00:31:56.359><c> fact,</c><00:31:56.579><c> if</c><00:31:56.740><c> you</c><00:31:56.880><c> look</c><00:31:57.079><c> at</c><00:31:57.279><c> Malachi,</c><00:31:58.099><c> Malachi</c><00:31:58.619><c> chapter</c><00:31:58.960><c> 3</c>

00:32:00.500 --> 00:32:02.400
you<00:32:00.660><c> get</c><00:32:00.900><c> this</c><00:32:01.140><c> even</c><00:32:01.460><c> more</c><00:32:01.819><c> explicitly.</c>

00:32:02.799 --> 00:32:06.359
Malachi<00:32:03.299><c> chapter</c><00:32:03.660><c> 3</c><00:32:04.079><c> verse</c><00:32:04.299><c> 16</c><00:32:04.880><c> talks</c><00:32:05.460><c> about</c><00:32:05.799><c> them</c><00:32:06.039><c> coming</c>

In<00:32:21.140><c> the</c><00:32:21.279><c> day</c><00:32:21.559><c> when</c><00:32:21.740><c> I</c><00:32:21.940><c> make</c><00:32:22.099><c> up</c><00:32:22.259><c> my</c><00:32:22.460><c> treasured</c><00:32:22.900><c> possession,</c><00:32:23.420><c> I</c>

00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:24.660
will<00:32:23.880><c> spare</c><00:32:24.180><c> them,</c>

00:32:24.799 --> 00:32:27.619
just<00:32:25.059><c> as</c><00:32:25.220><c> in</c><00:32:25.400><c> compassion</c><00:32:25.779><c> a</c><00:32:25.920><c> man</c><00:32:26.119><c> spares</c><00:32:26.440><c> his</c><00:32:26.660><c> son</c><00:32:26.819><c> who</c><00:32:27.099><c> serves</c><00:32:27.380><c> him.</c>

00:32:27.740 --> 00:32:30.200
And<00:32:28.000><c> you</c><00:32:28.119><c> will</c><00:32:28.380><c> again</c><00:32:28.700><c> see</c><00:32:28.960><c> the</c><00:32:29.259><c> distinction</c><00:32:29.599><c> between</c><00:32:29.940><c> the</c>

00:32:31.420 --> 00:32:34.420
between<00:32:31.720><c> those</c><00:32:32.140><c> who</c><00:32:32.440><c> serve</c><00:32:32.640><c> God</c><00:32:32.980><c> and</c><00:32:33.380><c> those</c><00:32:33.680><c> who</c><00:32:33.900><c> do</c><00:32:34.039><c> not.</c>

00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:40.039
They<00:32:35.160><c> met</c><00:32:35.779><c> together,</c><00:32:37.000><c> the</c><00:32:37.240><c> Lord</c><00:32:37.559><c> listened</c><00:32:38.160><c> and</c><00:32:38.700><c> heard,</c><00:32:39.319><c> and</c><00:32:39.599><c> a</c>

00:32:43.779 --> 00:32:45.759
They'll<00:32:44.099><c> be</c><00:32:44.299><c> mine,</c><00:32:44.519><c> he</c><00:32:44.799><c> says.</c>

00:32:46.759 --> 00:32:50.539
I<00:32:47.200><c> mean,</c><00:32:47.779><c> maybe</c><00:32:48.059><c> it's</c><00:32:48.339><c> leaping</c><00:32:48.660><c> too</c><00:32:48.839><c> much</c><00:32:48.980><c> to</c><00:32:49.200><c> say</c><00:32:49.319><c> this</c><00:32:49.519><c> is</c><00:32:49.740><c> the</c><00:32:49.859><c> book</c><00:32:50.039><c> of</c><00:32:50.259><c> life.</c>

00:32:50.680 --> 00:32:51.440
I<00:32:50.859><c> don't</c><00:32:51.059><c> think</c><00:32:51.240><c> so.</c>

00:32:51.599 --> 00:32:54.980

00:35:39.500 --> 00:35:42.559
So<00:35:39.960><c> even</c><00:35:40.280><c> though</c><00:35:40.579><c> there's</c><00:35:40.900><c> some,</c><00:35:41.519><c> I</c><00:35:41.639><c> don't</c><00:35:41.840><c> know</c><00:35:41.980><c> what</c><00:35:42.360><c> kind</c>

00:35:59.039 --> 00:36:02.199
and<00:35:59.619><c> he</c><00:35:59.780><c> makes,</c><00:36:00.360><c> along</c><00:36:00.500><c> with</c><00:36:00.760><c> Clement</c><00:36:01.099><c> and</c><00:36:01.519><c> all</c><00:36:01.780><c> the</c><00:36:01.980><c> others</c>

00:36:02.199 --> 00:36:04.239

00:36:04.420 --> 00:36:07.360
I<00:36:04.559><c> think</c><00:36:04.719><c> it's</c><00:36:05.059><c> reasonable</c><00:36:05.480><c> to</c><00:36:05.820><c> conclude</c><00:36:06.039><c> that</c><00:36:06.280><c> Euodia</c><00:36:06.639><c> and</c><00:36:06.900><c> Syntyche,</c>

00:36:07.579 --> 00:36:09.699
despite<00:36:07.980><c> their</c><00:36:08.300><c> challenges,</c><00:36:08.920><c> despite</c><00:36:09.139><c> their</c><00:36:09.380><c> problems,</c>

00:36:10.119 --> 00:36:15.280
Paul<00:36:10.280><c> has</c><00:36:10.579><c> every</c><00:36:10.920><c> expectation</c><00:36:11.719><c> that</c><00:36:12.320><c> their</c><00:36:12.579><c> names</c><00:36:12.900><c> are</c><00:36:13.699><c> in</c><00:36:14.420><c> the</c><00:36:14.719><c> book</c><00:36:14.900><c> of</c><00:36:15.139><c> life,</c>

00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:18.440
not<00:36:15.639><c> will</c><00:36:15.940><c> be,</c><00:36:16.760><c> are</c><00:36:17.199><c> in</c><00:36:17.539><c> the</c><00:36:17.659><c> book</c><00:36:17.820><c> of</c><00:36:18.059><c> life.</c>

00:36:18.840 --> 00:36:21.900
And<00:36:19.079><c> so</c><00:36:19.260><c> here's</c><00:36:19.500><c> a</c><00:36:19.659><c> really</c><00:36:19.980><c> important</c><00:36:20.380><c> principle</c><00:36:20.920><c> that</c><00:36:21.460><c> we</c>

00:36:21.900 --> 00:36:22.579
get<00:36:22.079><c> from</c><00:36:22.340><c> it,</c>

00:36:22.679 --> 00:36:25.480
which<00:36:22.860><c> is</c><00:36:23.079><c> the</c><00:36:23.199><c> book</c><00:36:23.460><c> of</c><00:36:23.739><c> life</c><00:36:24.179><c> is</c><00:36:24.539><c> being</c><00:36:24.820><c> written</c><00:36:25.119><c> now.</c>

00:36:25.480 --> 00:36:30.099
And<00:36:25.840><c> indeed,</c><00:36:26.400><c> the</c><00:36:26.539><c> book</c><00:36:26.719><c> of</c><00:36:27.000><c> life</c><00:36:27.440><c> there</c><00:36:28.300><c> was</c><00:36:29.059><c> written.</c>

00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:36.119
Abraham<00:36:32.599><c> died</c><00:36:33.239><c> with</c><00:36:34.000><c> his</c><00:36:34.340><c> name</c><00:36:34.579><c> in</c><00:36:34.719><c> the</c><00:36:34.860><c> book</c><00:36:35.019><c> of</c><00:36:35.239><c> life.</c>

00:36:36.300 --> 00:36:40.360
Isaac,<00:36:36.840><c> Jacob,</c><00:36:38.039><c> Joseph,</c><00:36:38.679><c> David,</c><00:36:39.400><c> Moses.</c>

00:36:41.980 --> 00:36:44.719
These<00:36:42.440><c> people</c><00:36:42.880><c> died</c><00:36:43.320><c> with</c><00:36:43.599><c> their</c><00:36:43.900><c> name</c><00:36:44.059><c> in</c><00:36:44.219><c> the</c><00:36:44.340><c> book</c><00:36:44.460><c> of</c><00:36:44.639><c> life.</c>

00:36:44.760 --> 00:36:46.980
The<00:36:44.940><c> list</c><00:36:45.139><c> could</c><00:36:45.340><c> go</c><00:36:45.599><c> on,</c><00:36:45.860><c> of</c><00:36:46.079><c> course.</c>

00:36:47.239 --> 00:36:51.980
But<00:36:47.440><c> that</c><00:36:47.800><c> book</c><00:36:48.079><c> is</c><00:36:48.539><c> sealed</c><00:36:49.000><c> until</c><00:36:49.800><c> one</c><00:36:50.239><c> who</c><00:36:50.460><c> is</c><00:36:50.800><c> worthy</c><00:36:51.280><c> can</c>

00:36:59.420 --> 00:37:02.780
And<00:36:59.619><c> so</c><00:36:59.699><c> they</c><00:36:59.920><c> died</c><00:37:00.280><c> with</c><00:37:00.519><c> the</c><00:37:00.679><c> book</c><00:37:00.840><c> of</c><00:37:01.079><c> life</c><00:37:01.320><c> sealed,</c>

00:37:04.059 --> 00:37:08.019

00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:13.019
So<00:37:09.480><c> when</c><00:37:09.699><c> we</c><00:37:10.039><c> get</c><00:37:10.260><c> visions</c><00:37:10.679><c> then</c><00:37:11.179><c> of</c><00:37:11.559><c> the</c><00:37:11.860><c> time</c><00:37:12.079><c> when</c><00:37:12.300><c> that</c><00:37:12.599><c> book</c><00:37:12.800><c> and</c>

I<00:37:19.800><c> looked,</c><00:37:20.360><c> thrones</c><00:37:20.679><c> were</c><00:37:20.920><c> set</c><00:37:21.039><c> in</c><00:37:21.260><c> place.</c>

00:37:21.619 --> 00:37:23.139
The<00:37:21.639><c> ancient</c><00:37:21.960><c> of</c><00:37:22.179><c> days</c><00:37:22.340><c> took</c><00:37:22.579><c> his</c><00:37:22.880><c> seat.</c>

00:37:23.619 --> 00:37:25.380
His<00:37:23.820><c> clothing</c><00:37:24.199><c> was</c><00:37:24.460><c> as</c><00:37:24.679><c> white</c><00:37:24.900><c> as</c><00:37:25.139><c> snow.</c>

00:37:28.400 --> 00:37:30.280
His<00:37:28.760><c> throne</c><00:37:28.960><c> was</c><00:37:29.380><c> flaming</c><00:37:29.679><c> with</c><00:37:30.019><c> fire.</c>

00:37:30.380 --> 00:37:31.900
Its<00:37:30.599><c> wheels</c><00:37:30.840><c> were</c><00:37:31.079><c> all</c><00:37:31.300><c> ablaze.</c>

A<00:37:32.280><c> river</c><00:37:32.579><c> of</c><00:37:32.900><c> fire</c><00:37:33.119><c> was</c><00:37:33.400><c> flowing,</c><00:37:33.900><c> coming</c><00:37:34.000><c> out</c><00:37:34.280><c> from</c><00:37:34.500><c> before</c><00:37:34.900><c> him.</c>

00:37:43.880 --> 00:37:47.099
