00:05:15.860 --> 00:05:17.160
That's<00:05:16.120><c> right,</c><00:05:16.439><c> that's</c><00:05:16.680><c> right.</c>

00:05:17.540 --> 00:05:21.259
So<00:05:17.680><c> you</c><00:05:17.879><c> see,</c><00:05:18.899><c> we'll</c><00:05:19.060><c> have</c><00:05:19.120><c> a</c><00:05:19.199><c> look</c><00:05:19.319><c> at</c><00:05:19.459><c> these</c><00:05:19.660><c> papers</c><00:05:19.959><c> later</c><00:05:20.300><c> on.</c>

00:05:21.779 --> 00:05:23.980

00:05:51.899 --> 00:05:54.660
because<00:05:51.920><c> he</c><00:05:52.199><c> sees</c><00:05:52.740><c> what</c><00:05:53.519><c> we</c><00:05:53.860><c> don't</c><00:05:54.220><c> see.</c>

00:05:54.819 --> 00:05:57.199

00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:04.240
because<00:06:02.779><c> not</c><00:06:03.019><c> only</c><00:06:03.220><c> is</c><00:06:03.399><c> a</c><00:06:03.540><c> dictator</c><00:06:03.899><c> coming,</c>

00:06:06.259 --> 00:06:08.360
And<00:06:06.379><c> we</c><00:06:06.459><c> need</c><00:06:06.699><c> to</c><00:06:06.860><c> be</c><00:06:07.000><c> aware</c><00:06:07.259><c> of</c><00:06:07.399><c> that,</c><00:06:07.819><c> brothers</c><00:06:07.819><c> and</c><00:06:07.879><c> sisters,</c>

00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:11.600
and<00:06:08.680><c> to</c><00:06:09.220><c> really</c><00:06:09.560><c> prepare</c><00:06:09.899><c> ourselves,</c><00:06:10.420><c> I</c><00:06:10.660><c> believe,</c>

00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:13.759
because<00:06:11.860><c> we</c><00:06:12.000><c> are</c><00:06:12.259><c> facing</c><00:06:12.660><c> destiny.</c>

00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.220
That's<00:06:14.199><c> why</c><00:06:14.360><c> it's</c><00:06:14.500><c> very</c><00:06:14.779><c> important</c><00:06:15.259><c> that</c><00:06:15.459><c> we</c><00:06:15.639><c> perhaps</c><00:06:15.980><c> look</c>

00:06:20.699 --> 00:06:23.779
so<00:06:20.980><c> that</c><00:06:21.259><c> we</c><00:06:21.439><c> might</c><00:06:21.860><c> see</c><00:06:22.360><c> this</c><00:06:22.639><c> as</c><00:06:22.860><c> a</c><00:06:22.959><c> great</c><00:06:23.120><c> opportunity</c>

00:06:37.579 --> 00:06:39.120
Very<00:06:38.000><c> appropriate.</c>

00:06:43.500 --> 00:06:46.079
Yes,<00:06:44.139><c> wouldn't</c><00:06:44.779><c> be</c><00:06:44.980><c> surprising.</c>

00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:49.740
Or<00:13:47.519><c> as</c><00:13:47.659><c> we</c><00:13:47.860><c> quoted</c><00:13:48.059><c> the</c><00:13:48.259><c> other</c><00:13:48.519><c> day,</c><00:13:49.080><c> Paul</c><00:13:49.279><c> was</c><00:13:49.559><c> saying,</c>

00:13:52.580 --> 00:13:55.639
It<00:13:52.720><c> is</c><00:13:52.960><c> true,</c><00:13:53.399><c> brethren</c><00:13:53.559><c> and</c><00:13:53.799><c> sisters,</c><00:13:54.159><c> that</c><00:13:54.480><c> we</c><00:13:54.740><c> fail.</c>

00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:58.240

00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:04.279
No,<00:14:02.620><c> it</c><00:14:02.620><c> doesn't.</c>

00:14:04.379 --> 00:14:06.320
Yahweh<00:14:04.700><c> understands</c><00:14:05.460><c> our</c><00:14:05.799><c> weak</c><00:14:06.059><c> cause.</c>

00:14:06.460 --> 00:14:08.600
We<00:14:06.539><c> read</c><00:14:06.720><c> that</c><00:14:06.940><c> in</c><00:14:07.159><c> the</c><00:14:07.299><c> Psalms</c><00:14:07.580><c> in</c><00:14:07.679><c> our</c><00:14:07.899><c> readings</c><00:14:08.159><c> today.</c>

00:14:08.860 --> 00:14:12.379

00:14:12.720 --> 00:14:16.039
Therefore,<00:14:13.240><c> John</c><00:14:13.320><c> is</c><00:14:13.580><c> saying</c><00:14:14.080><c> that</c><00:14:14.539><c> it</c><00:14:14.700><c> is</c><00:14:15.000><c> possible</c><00:14:15.500><c> for</c><00:14:15.759><c> us</c>

00:14:30.700 --> 00:14:33.179
That's<00:14:31.039><c> his</c><00:14:31.320><c> urgent</c><00:14:31.720><c> appeal</c><00:14:32.039><c> to</c><00:14:32.259><c> us.</c>

00:14:33.299 --> 00:14:38.179
But<00:14:33.580><c> if</c><00:14:33.960><c> we</c><00:14:34.320><c> do,</c><00:14:35.460><c> then</c><00:14:35.639><c> we</c><00:14:35.799><c> have</c><00:14:35.980><c> an</c><00:14:36.240><c> advocate</c><00:14:37.200><c> with</c><00:14:37.480><c> the</c><00:14:37.700><c> Father,</c>

00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:43.320
That's<00:14:42.059><c> who</c><00:14:42.259><c> he</c><00:14:42.340><c> is.</c>

00:14:43.720 --> 00:14:44.559
He's<00:14:44.059><c> the</c><00:14:44.259><c> righteous.</c>

00:14:44.759 --> 00:14:46.179
He<00:14:45.159><c> did</c><00:14:45.620><c> righteousness.</c>

00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:47.840
He<00:14:46.700><c> is</c><00:14:47.200><c> righteous.</c>

00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:49.720
All<00:14:48.500><c> about</c><00:14:48.820><c> him</c><00:14:49.039><c> is</c><00:14:49.259><c> righteous.</c>

00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:50.919
And<00:14:50.080><c> he's</c><00:14:50.379><c> our</c><00:14:50.580><c> advocate.</c>

00:14:51.100 --> 00:14:53.019
He<00:14:51.340><c> stands</c><00:14:51.659><c> by</c><00:14:52.019><c> us.</c>

00:14:53.019 --> 00:14:56.200

00:21:39.740 --> 00:21:42.140
They<00:21:40.019><c> are</c><00:21:40.279><c> outside</c><00:21:41.279><c> God's</c><00:21:41.880><c> law.</c>

00:21:42.299 --> 00:21:45.220
They<00:21:42.500><c> don't</c><00:21:42.839><c> recognize</c><00:21:43.480><c> God's</c><00:21:43.920><c> law</c><00:21:44.059><c> at</c><00:21:44.400><c> all.</c>

00:21:45.259 --> 00:21:47.440
They<00:21:45.539><c> haven't</c><00:21:45.740><c> been</c><00:21:46.039><c> forgotten</c><00:21:46.400><c> of</c><00:21:46.599><c> God</c><00:21:46.740><c> in</c><00:21:46.980><c> any</c><00:21:47.220><c> sense,</c>

00:21:47.619 --> 00:21:49.839
so<00:21:47.839><c> the</c><00:21:48.059><c> Gentiles</c><00:21:48.539><c> are</c><00:21:49.240><c> lawless.</c>

00:21:50.140 --> 00:21:53.519
So<00:21:50.400><c> can</c><00:21:50.660><c> Christadelphians</c><00:21:51.339><c> be</c><00:21:51.579><c> lawless</c><00:21:51.980><c> brethren</c><00:21:52.299><c> and</c><00:21:52.519><c> sisters.</c>

00:21:53.859 --> 00:21:57.180

Christadelphians<00:21:58.200><c> commit</c><00:21:59.299><c> lawlessness</c>

00:21:59.920 --> 00:22:05.559

00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:07.700

00:22:12.019 --> 00:22:15.140
Nadab<00:22:12.359><c> and</c><00:22:12.480><c> Abihu</c><00:22:12.980><c> were</c><00:22:13.279><c> not</c><00:22:14.519><c> lawful.</c>

00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:16.839

00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:22.619

Ananias<00:22:23.579><c> and</c><00:22:23.680><c> Sapphira</c><00:22:24.200><c> were</c><00:22:24.480><c> lawless.</c>

00:22:31.220 --> 00:22:33.099
Peter<00:22:31.480><c> said</c><00:22:31.759><c> to</c><00:22:32.019><c> Ananias,</c>

00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:34.160

00:22:39.099 --> 00:22:42.539
He<00:22:39.279><c> said,</c><00:22:39.559><c> listen,</c><00:22:40.799><c> while</c><00:22:40.960><c> it</c><00:22:41.559><c> was</c><00:22:41.759><c> your</c><00:22:42.140><c> own,</c>

while<00:22:43.220><c> it</c><00:22:43.539><c> remained,</c><00:22:44.900><c> was</c><00:22:45.039><c> it</c><00:22:45.240><c> not</c><00:22:45.440><c> your</c><00:22:45.799><c> own?</c>

00:22:46.180 --> 00:22:49.619
You<00:22:46.380><c> could</c><00:22:46.539><c> have</c><00:22:46.680><c> done</c><00:22:46.799><c> what</c><00:22:46.980><c> you</c><00:22:47.180><c> wanted</c><00:22:47.480><c> with</c><00:22:48.180><c> the</c><00:22:48.599><c> property.</c>

00:22:50.299 --> 00:22:54.019
And<00:22:50.900><c> after</c><00:22:51.500><c> it</c><00:22:51.559><c> was</c><00:22:51.920><c> sold,</c><00:22:52.220><c> was</c><00:22:52.519><c> it</c><00:22:52.640><c> not</c><00:22:52.839><c> in</c><00:22:53.000><c> your</c><00:22:53.160><c> own</c><00:22:53.319><c> power?</c>

00:22:54.480 --> 00:22:56.380
But<00:22:54.759><c> what</c><00:22:55.039><c> they</c><00:22:55.240><c> had</c><00:22:55.579><c> said</c><00:22:55.839><c> was,</c>

00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:04.779
And<00:23:02.759><c> they</c><00:23:02.960><c> kept</c><00:23:03.279><c> that</c><00:23:03.519><c> part</c><00:23:03.819><c> of</c><00:23:03.980><c> it.</c>

00:23:05.440 --> 00:23:07.180
They<00:23:05.599><c> were</c><00:23:05.880><c> lawless.</c>

00:23:07.460 --> 00:23:12.119
Why<00:23:07.819><c> has</c><00:23:08.140><c> thou</c><00:23:08.599><c> conceived</c><00:23:09.940><c> this</c><00:23:10.920><c> thing</c><00:23:11.059><c> in</c><00:23:11.279><c> thine</c><00:23:11.500><c> heart</c>

00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:18.500
They<00:23:15.880><c> had</c><00:23:16.160><c> conceived</c><00:23:16.700><c> this</c><00:23:17.000><c> lie</c><00:23:17.180><c> in</c><00:23:17.339><c> their</c><00:23:17.619><c> heart.</c>

00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:21.960
Thou<00:23:19.180><c> hast</c><00:23:19.420><c> not</c><00:23:19.660><c> lied</c><00:23:19.859><c> unto</c><00:23:20.140><c> men,</c><00:23:20.480><c> but</c><00:23:20.619><c> unto</c><00:23:20.900><c> God,</c>

00:33:31.680 --> 00:33:35.119
A<00:33:31.960><c> love</c><00:33:32.119><c> that</c><00:33:32.500><c> expresses</c><00:33:32.819><c> itself</c><00:33:33.359><c> in</c><00:33:33.920><c> sacrificing</c><00:33:34.539><c> ourselves</c>

00:33:51.500 --> 00:33:56.019
And<00:33:51.640><c> because</c><00:33:51.980><c> God</c><00:33:52.240><c> is</c><00:33:52.519><c> love,</c><00:33:54.099><c> then</c><00:33:54.380><c> love</c><00:33:54.700><c> is</c><00:33:54.980><c> only</c><00:33:55.420><c> expressed</c>

00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:04.599
God<00:34:01.519><c> does</c><00:34:01.940><c> not</c><00:34:02.240><c> love</c><00:34:03.039><c> indiscriminately.</c>

00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:10.500
God<00:34:05.839><c> does</c><00:34:06.180><c> not</c><00:34:06.480><c> love</c><00:34:07.200><c> the</c><00:34:07.619><c> world</c><00:34:08.119><c> in</c><00:34:08.599><c> its</c><00:34:08.880><c> evil</c><00:34:09.320><c> and</c><00:34:09.659><c> enmity.</c>

00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:15.599
God<00:34:11.539><c> only</c><00:34:11.920><c> loves</c><00:34:12.619><c> when</c><00:34:13.139><c> that</c><00:34:13.420><c> love</c><00:34:13.579><c> is</c><00:34:13.840><c> producing</c><00:34:14.400><c> something,</c>

00:34:15.760 --> 00:34:17.900

00:34:18.360 --> 00:34:20.780
That's<00:34:18.719><c> when</c><00:34:18.920><c> God's</c><00:34:19.320><c> love</c><00:34:19.480><c> is</c><00:34:19.800><c> expressed.</c>

00:34:20.820 --> 00:34:25.119

00:34:34.500 --> 00:34:36.980
So<00:34:34.800><c> he</c><00:34:35.000><c> must</c><00:34:35.400><c> manifest</c><00:34:36.099><c> love.</c>

00:34:37.500 --> 00:34:42.800
The<00:34:37.559><c> fourth</c><00:34:37.860><c> point</c><00:34:38.179><c> takes</c><00:34:38.460><c> us</c><00:34:38.820><c> to</c><00:34:39.500><c> John</c><00:34:40.800><c> five,</c><00:34:41.440><c> verse</c><00:34:41.639><c> one.</c>

00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:47.139
And<00:34:43.219><c> this</c><00:34:43.420><c> is</c><00:34:43.579><c> an</c><00:34:43.880><c> important</c><00:34:44.280><c> quality</c><00:34:44.880><c> in</c><00:34:45.739><c> chapter</c><00:34:46.260><c> five</c>

00:34:51.139 --> 00:34:54.960
Whosoever<00:34:51.739><c> believeth</c><00:34:52.179><c> that</c><00:34:52.400><c> Jesus</c><00:34:52.980><c> is</c><00:34:53.360><c> the</c><00:34:53.639><c> Christ</c><00:34:54.159><c> is</c><00:34:54.699><c> born</c>

of<00:34:55.139><c> God.</c>

00:34:55.860 --> 00:34:57.139
Oh,<00:34:56.139><c> we</c><00:34:56.440><c> believe</c><00:34:56.840><c> that.</c>

00:34:57.480 --> 00:35:00.219
We<00:34:57.780><c> understand</c><00:34:58.300><c> that</c><00:34:58.539><c> Jesus</c><00:34:58.820><c> is</c><00:34:59.039><c> the</c><00:34:59.280><c> Christ.</c>

00:35:00.380 --> 00:35:01.800
But<00:35:00.579><c> we</c><00:35:00.739><c> might</c><00:35:00.880><c> ask</c><00:35:01.159><c> John,</c><00:35:01.599><c> therefore,</c>

00:35:01.800 --> 00:35:04.079
what<00:35:02.019><c> does</c><00:35:02.280><c> that</c><00:35:02.579><c> phrase</c><00:35:02.840><c> really</c><00:35:03.219><c> mean?</c>

00:35:04.460 --> 00:35:07.320
It's<00:35:04.539><c> not</c><00:35:04.800><c> only</c><00:35:05.139><c> a</c><00:35:05.440><c> confession</c><00:35:05.780><c> of</c><00:35:06.260><c> a</c><00:35:06.500><c> phrase</c><00:35:06.739><c> of</c><00:35:07.039><c> words</c>

And<00:49:15.619><c> we</c><00:49:15.800><c> forget.</c>

00:49:16.699 --> 00:49:18.519
We're<00:49:16.980><c> about</c><00:49:17.360><c> redeeming</c><00:49:18.159><c> people.</c>

00:49:18.739 --> 00:49:20.699

00:50:18.119 --> 00:50:21.219
We<00:50:18.500><c> are</c><00:50:18.880><c> gradually</c><00:50:19.420><c> increasing</c><00:50:20.320><c> in</c><00:50:20.599><c> our</c><00:50:20.800><c> strength,</c>

00:50:26.280 --> 00:50:28.679
That's<00:50:26.579><c> what</c><00:50:26.760><c> the</c><00:50:27.000><c> family</c><00:50:27.260><c> of</c><00:50:27.500><c> God</c><00:50:27.639><c> does.</c>

00:50:29.380 --> 00:50:31.059

00:50:31.519 --> 00:50:35.059

and<00:50:37.179><c> they</c><00:50:37.260><c> work</c><00:50:37.460><c> together.</c>

00:50:38.360 --> 00:50:39.460
We're<00:50:38.579><c> working</c><00:50:38.880><c> together.</c>

00:50:39.760 --> 00:50:43.420
This<00:50:39.960><c> is</c><00:50:40.199><c> a</c><00:50:40.239><c> family</c><00:50:40.639><c> characteristic</c><00:50:41.300><c> of</c><00:50:41.860><c> overcoming</c><00:50:42.320><c> the</c><00:50:42.639><c> world,</c>

00:50:46.519 --> 00:50:48.079
So<00:50:46.739><c> we</c><00:50:46.880><c> need</c><00:50:47.119><c> to</c><00:50:47.300><c> have</c><00:50:47.440><c> a</c><00:50:47.760><c> strength.</c>

00:50:55.340 --> 00:50:58.039
And<00:50:55.940><c> it's</c><00:50:56.099><c> done</c><00:50:56.280><c> through</c><00:50:56.579><c> faith</c><00:50:56.840><c> and</c><00:50:57.059><c> belief.</c>

00:50:58.780 --> 00:51:02.340
And<00:50:59.340><c> that's</c><00:50:59.639><c> the</c><00:50:59.780><c> value</c><00:51:00.019><c> of</c><00:51:00.320><c> our</c><00:51:00.559><c> Bible</c><00:51:00.960><c> school</c><00:51:01.219><c> here.</c>

00:55:33.480 --> 00:55:35.579
We'll<00:55:33.820><c> all</c><00:55:34.159><c> have</c><00:55:34.460><c> some</c><00:55:34.840><c> little</c><00:55:35.159><c> burden.</c>

00:55:42.539 --> 00:55:43.960
It's<00:55:43.059><c> unlike</c><00:55:43.460><c> baros,</c>

Whatever<00:55:50.139><c> it</c><00:55:50.199><c> is,</c><00:55:50.539><c> it</c><00:55:50.539><c> will</c><00:55:50.719><c> be</c><00:55:50.940><c> revealed.</c>

00:55:57.639 --> 00:55:59.739
That's<00:55:58.199><c> because</c><00:55:58.639><c> in</c><00:55:59.000><c> some</c><00:55:59.300><c> cases,</c>

00:55:59.820 --> 00:56:02.260
